Sonic's Inheritance

An Inheritance Cycle/Sonic the Hedgehog Crossover Fanfiction Story

by The Chuckinator

Chapter 1: A Dream of Alagaesia

Night had fallen, and Sonic the Hedgehog ran through the city after another big battle with Dr Eggman. The mad scientist had recently plotting to take over the world again, and of course Sonic was there to stop him. Once he got to his house, he opened the door and sat down on the couch.

"Oh, man," he said to himself. "That was a tough battle, and it's worked up an appetite!"

He walked into the kitchen and grabbed a chili dog from the refrigerator. Just then, the doorbell rang so he walked out to the living room and answered it. His face beamed when he saw who it was.

"Hey, Tails!" Sonic exclaimed. "How've you been?"

"Just fine," Tails said. "Mind if I come in?"

Sonic nodded, and Tails walked inside. He looked at Sonic and chuckled. "I heard about your battle with Eggman."

"Yeah, he never seems to give up!" Sonic told the fox.

Tails smirked and shook his head. "I came here to give you something," he told Sonic. Tails reached into a bag and pulled out a book. Sonic looked at it: the book was called Eragon. It had a cover of a blue dragon on it, and Sonic saw that it was a fantasy novel. He took the book and read the back cover.

"This looks interesting," Sonic said. "I'll give it a try. Is this yours?"

Tails nodded. "I bought it a few days ago, and I'm already finished with it. I thought you might like to read it."

"Thanks a lot, Tails."

"No problem," the fox said. "I'll see you soon!" he turned and walked out of the house.

Sonic walked into his room and sighed. He set the book on his bedside table and climbed into bed. A few minutes later, he was fast asleep.

"Sonic...Sonic..."

The voice made the hedgehog snap his eyes open, and he looked around.

"Is anyone there?" he asked. No one answered, so he fell back asleep. I'm just hearing things, he thought.

As soon as he fell back asleep, he was tossing and turning like he was having some sort of nightmare.

He was standing in an open field, filled with grass and trees. He looked around and saw a gigantic blue dragon with a person riding it. They both looked at him and started to attack. Sonic cringed but realized that they were fighting a red dragon in the air. Then the scene changed, and he saw a king with a black dragon causing devastation to a village. He heard a loud roar, and everything went black.

Sonic shot out of bed, gasping for breath.

What was that? he thought. Sonic turned on the light and got out of bed, pacing the room. He then saw the book that Tails left him, and picked it up.
I guess it was just a dream. Maybe some reading will help me get to sleep.

He started to read the book, and immediately got hooked. Sonic read through the entire novel in half an hour. Once he finished the book, he lay back down on his bed, setting it aside.

"That was a great book!" he said to himself. "Maybe now I can get some sleep..."

Sonic shut off the light and pulled the covers over him. He didn't notice the book starting to glow, letting out a bright light. When the light faded, Sonic was gone.
