8:20 A.M.

Emerald Town, United Federation

On a beautiful Friday morning in the sleepy west coast town of Emerald Town, a young blue hedgehog was skateboarding down the street as he approached an old garage: the residency of Dr. Ivo "Doc Eggman" Robotnik, more popularly known as the town lunatic. The hedgehog found a key under the doormat & opened the door. "Doc, hello, anybody home?" yelled Sonic the Hedgehog. "Muttski, are you here boy?" 'Hmmm… I guess nobody's home, might as well hook up my guitar to the amp.' As soon as Sonic strummed his electric guitar, it overloaded the amplifier and sent him flying and crashing at full force backwards, falling backwards into the bookcase.

The phone was ringing, so Sonic answered it "Hello, Eggman's house, Sonic speaking," said Sonic. "Sonic, I have finally made the greatest scientific discovery in the history of the world! I need you and Tails to meet me at the Emerald Mall tonight at 1:15!" Dr. Robotnik said.

"Seriously Doc, 1:15 in the morning, you gotta be kidding me," Sonic then sighed.

"Oh trust me, Sonic, you're not gonna regret it, just see for yourself my friend," exclaimed the Doctor.

"Oh it better be good, otherwise you owe me some free chili dogs."

Suddenly a few dozen clocks went off all at once. "Are those my clocks I hear?"

Eggman asked. "You betcha, Doc. They all say 8:00 a.m." Sonic replied.

"Great Mobius! That means my experiment worked, all of my clocks are exactly 20 minutes behind!"

"Wait, Doc, you mean it's 8:25?" said the blue hedgehog worried.

"Precisely," exclaimed Eggman.

"Dang it, Doc, I'm late for school!" Sonic then panicked and sped out of the garage and raced towards the school on his skateboard. Along the way, he passed through the central town square and hitched a ride, hanging on tightly to the back of a truck. As he approached Emerald Town High School, he spotted a beautiful pink hedgehog and a male yellowish-orange fox.

"Sonic, where the heck were you, do you realize how much trouble you're gonna be in if you don't start showing up on time?" exclaimed his girlfriend Amy Rose.

"Amy's right, you should start showing up on time. Just try not to be late for our band audition later." Tails said to his best friend.

"So Doc has been gone for a week because he's been working on what he calls 'the greatest scientific discovery in history,' right?" asked Tails. "That's right, Tails. I gotta admit Doc Egg-. Sonic said as he was interrupted by Principal Commander. "I assume you mean Dr. Eggman, you need to stop hanging around that crazy old man, he's the town crackpot. You're nothing but a slacker Mr. Hedgehog, just like your old man." said the cruel principal.

"Whatever man, hahaahaa, give a Hedgehog a break here. You're opinion of me will change once I prove you wrong in the battle of the bands."

"No Hedgehog in the history of Emerald Town has ever amounted to anything; you'll always be a slacker just like your dad Shadow."

Sonic thought in the back of his head 'This guy is just plain crazy.' "Oh yeah, well history is gonna change."

"One tardy slip for you, Ms. Rose; one for you, Mr. Prower; & a detention for you Mr. Hedgehog," the principal gave them a dirty look.

Later that day, Sonic, Amy, & Tails were playing in their band known as Hedgehog Madness. They were covering the hit song Escape from the City. But the judges harshly critiqued them by saying "You're too dang loud! Get outta here kids!" the judge yelled.

Later, in the town square….

"Man this blows, we can never get a good response, only because we're too loud?" Sonic ask rhetorically.

"Oh cheer up, Sonikku, we'll have a good shot at it, remember what Doc said." Amy said.

"Yeah, I know the whole story," Sonic replied.

In unison of Sonic and Tails "If you put you your mind to it, you can accomplish anything."

Then a random old lady ran up to the trio and said , "Save the clock tower! Mayor Echidna doesn't care about history and wants to restore the clock on the Town Hall. Please make a donation to the Emerald Town Historic Preservation Society. You know lightning struck the clock and froze permanently to read 10:04pm 30 years ago"

"Here ya go ma'am," Tails handed her a quarter and took a flyerabout the brief history lesson she gave them. "

"Let's take a trip to the lake tomorrow, it'll be a blast. I need to blow off some steam from today." Sonic suggested.

"Great idea, I could use a vacation," Amy replied. "I get to spend more time with you Sonic."

Sonic and Amy leaned in for a kiss when suddenly, Amy's father, Aaron Rose honked the horn of his car.

'Thank God, I hate it when they do all of that lovey dovey stuff in front of me, I hate being the third wheel." Tails thought in the back of his mind.

"My dad's here, gotta go, Love you, Sonic," Amy said as she planted a kiss on Sonic.

"Love you too, Ames," he replied as Amy departed.

"Ok Tails, race you back to my house, let's rock!' Sonic teased.

"Oh you're on, let's get a move on." Tails said as he hopped on his skateboard/

The duo then sped towards Sonic's suburban neighborhood on the outskirts of town, where they saw a horrible sight in the driveway.

Sorry to leave you at a cliffhanger, it makes better anticipation that way. Until next time, Sayonara! DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN A THING.
