One morning, Sonic was just waking up in his apartment at Station Square, when suddenly, he noticed his old pal Tails flying towards his complex. After a little less than minute, Tails had come up into Sonic's room to deliver some big news (what did think he was going to do, fly in through the window?).
"Hey Sonic, I know it's only been a while since we last beat Eggman, but come and look at what I found at the Mystic Ruins!", Tails said to Sonic. He seemed a lot more bubbly than normal to Sonic, and that's saying a lot considering his usually light-hearted attitude. "Okay, little bro. I certainly hope it isn't another one of McNose-Hair's tricks", Sonic replied. "It certainly isn't. If it was, I wouldn't be this excited." Tails said back.
So they took the train to the Mystic Ruins (y'know, it's been so engraved into the consciouness of Sonic fans that it's wierd that there's a train that leads directly from the city to an ancient ruin area that I'm going to make no absurd comment other than 'Sonic needs a way to get to Tails' workshop') and when they got to Tails' workshop, they noticed a Bright Blue Phone Booth on the second level under the workshop. On the top was a light and it read "Police Public Call Box" on a banner above some yellow stained-glass windows.
"What is it?" asked Sonic. "It seems to be some kind of phone box from the 50's and early 60's.", said Tails. "I woke up early to take the Tornado for a test flight and noticed this old relic warp right outside!" "Relax Tails, how about we go inside and see if there's anybody in there?", Sonic thought. "Well, I'm getting this strange message in my head that I should just ignore it and continue with my everyday life, but the fact that it appeared within such a close proximity to my house gets me rather intrigued.", Tails replied. "You know, you could just answer 'yes' or 'no' to those sorts of questions, sometimes", Sonic snarked.
So they opened the door and found that it was much bigger on the inside than the outside. In fact, if you peel away the second set of black doors, it was some kind of spaceship. The walls were white with bright yellow, circular lights spotted evenly around the place like a hexagonal uniform package. In the centre of the room was a large, hexagonal control panel with an assortment of levers and buttons, as well as a bright, red central column in the centre of it that went up and down slightly. On the other side of the room was a large screen that was closed by two silver lids with pillars on either side of it. Around the room were stairs that probably led to the nether part of the control panel where all the circuitry (which could be seen through a glass floor) was and other stairs that possibly led to other rooms. Oh and there was also a hatstand by the door that seemed to have some long, multicoloured scarf of it (just thought I'd mention that).
When Sonic and Tails saw all of this for the first time, let's just say they were taken a bit off guard. They were completely speechless (and didn't even know the doors had shut behing them), until Tails spoke up and slowly said "Well…I guess somebody's mastered transdimensional engineering, huh?" "Quite so, bro", Sonic managed to say. "I wonder what the big control thing in the middle of this room does." "Well, I'm going to guess that it bakes cakes or something." Tails said quite sarcastically. "Do you think you know how to control it?" Sonic asked Tails. "Why would I want to use this thing? Somebody else probably owns it." Tails replied. "Besides, these controls look way too difficult to take a grasp of in just a few minutes."
"Well, I guess you have to touch that panel in some way, because the doors are closed", Sonic said a little bit worried, and the both of them finally realising they locked in here. Tails walked up to the control panel and pulled a bright red lever, assuming that it would open the doors. It didn't do anything, so he went across to some buttons and found that they had random symbols on them. He pressed a few and then an 'enter' button (which was the only one that was in English).
The central column started to glow and move further up and down. Sonic and Tails felt like the ship was moving, as there was a slight vibration and there was the fact that an electronic wheezing, groaning noise could be heard petruding from the outside, soon followed by high-pitched, sparkly sounds and an even louder vibration sound slowly rising in pitch.
"Dear God, Tails! What have you done?", Sonic shouted. "Hey, don't blame me, you were the one who suggested I take a look at the control panel!", Tails said back. Sonic went over to the console and pulled a green lever that was on the other side of a set of levers that the aforementioned red one was on. It opened that scanner, and what they saw was a blue spiral vortex with some purple and red patterns which they felt like they were going through at a speed that even Sonic wouldn't be able to handle.
To Sonic and Tails, this was all far too much. Tails kept on trying to maintain his balance on the control panel and reconfigure the ship to take them back to the Mystic Ruins, but his efforts were completely fruitless and the screen on the control panel read that their "destination" was "SKARO1963". Sonic could feel the room growing and shrinking and seemingly getting darker. "This was a bad…idea…Tails." he managed to say before blacking out on the floor.
