Hey guys! I hope you like this start of the next series ^_^ I know, not much going on in this one, but I thought I'd start the first book of the second series with a recap of what happened in the last series. For those who are just jumping in, I suggest you look at my first series Sonic X Returning. Just so you know what all happened and what a couple things are ;) Anyway, enjoy ^_^
Prologue
My name is Emily Bridgestone. And boy, do I have a tale to tell.
Three years ago, I thought my life was going to be boring and lonely. That is until Sonic and the gang fell into my dad's workshop. That day turned my life upside down, but in a way I didn't mind. Until Sonic followed me to church and became Christian. I didn't mind him coming to Christ, but he could have warned me he was coming.
Over the next few weeks, we became close friends and I discovered my sixth sense could sense chaos emeralds. But I also soon discovered that Sonic wasn't the only one who was brought to earth. Eggman came through, and after kidnapping me to use my sixth sense to find chaos emeralds, kidnapped my parents. But, I did meet Silver after Eggman, and with his, Shadows and Sonic's help, we escaped.
After that, Shadow thought I should hide on Angel Island. There I met The Chaotix and trained to save my parents. But… Silver ended up getting kidnapped and replaced with a robotic version of him. It had us fooled long enough to kidnap me after my birthday party. Knuckles had taken me to the Emerald Chamber where I got a funny mark on my wrist that looked like the mark on Knuckles chest.
I was reunited with my parents and nearly pummeled Sonic during our escape. Good thing he's faster than my fist. We stole the eighth chaos emerald from Eggman and we were almost out when Eggman stopped us. Shadow got my parents to safety as we fought off Eggman. There he told us that he needed both Silver and me to find the emeralds. He was about to turn on his machine when Super Shadow barged in and saved us, also turning Sonic Super.
Once we thought it was over, I was shot in the side by Metal Silver. Sonic and the others rushed me back to angel Island while Shadow took care of the robot. I don't remember much of what happened after that, but I woke up in Shadows home on Angel Island, being told I had to stay in bed for a week at least. But during the healing, Silver had also gained a mark on his wrist.
Finally home, Tails had found a way to get everyone home, Including Eggman so he wouldn't bother me or my family. It was a bitter sweet goodbye, but I had a feeling it wasn't the last time I'd see them.
I was right.
The next summer I was driving home when a wormhole opened up and sucked me into Mobius during winter. I was half froze when Omega found me and took me to GUN HQ to warm up. There I met up with Shadow and Rouge, who persuaded the commander to let me stay until I was better. Well, before I was in perfect health again, Eggman showed up and kidnapped me, shooting Shadow in the leg. I was his prisoner for a while until Sonic and Knuckles came and rescued me.
They took me to Knothole where I met the Freedom Fighters Sally, Bunny, Rotor and Antoine. Now I know why Sonic picks on Antoine so much. I stayed in Knothole for a while before going back to angel Island and seeing Silver. But after stopping a chaos spike and saving knuckles from a chaos energy overload, Silv and I discovered we were Protectors of Angel Island's people and emeralds.
It was while we were training to protect the island, a creature named Mephilis showed up and hurt Silver badly, stealing the eighth chaos emerald and vanishing. It was completely by Gods Grace that Silver pulled through.
In a race against time, the freedom fighters, Sonic, Knuckles, Silver, Shadow, Tails and me traveled on horseback through Mobius to the Great Mountains, where Mephilis was hiding in a place called the Valley of Shadow. Along the way we met friends and enemies, where captured and rescued, and we got directions from a one-eyed hermit hedgehog named Eli Striker, who also gave us a dagger to help us imprison Mephilis.
In the Valley, we met creatures of darkness, one of which almost lured Shadow away into the dark, but thankfully we stopped her before she could and Sonic drove the creatures away using the Name of Christ. We also bumped into a giant spider that we had to take down. But it broke Sonic's arm before we defeated it.
Once we found the cave, Shadow took us down with Knuckles. Sonic was originally going to go, but since he broke his arm, it would be safer for him outside.
Looking back on the fight was Mephilis, I see how epic it was! But I'd rather not go through it again. After Mephilis' defeat, we had to race to get out of the Valley, because the mountain was literally falling on it.
After that adventure, I got to live in Mobius for a year until Tails fixed The Blue Typhoon to take me home. I never expected that I'd get to go on a trip through space! I even got to drive my own Space Jet! While I was learning to drive it, my scanners found Metal Sonic, floating through space in stasis from a dead battery. As you might guess, everyone else on the Blue Typhoon opted to leave him where he was. But, being the gentle soul I am, I persuaded them to let me bring him back. Thankfully, he felt he owed me a debt when he woke up and didn't hurt me. But I had to make him promise not to hurt anyone else on the Blue Typhoon.
After Metal was on the mend, we got a message from an Ixis Naugus, saying he would trade Christopher Thorndike for the Seven Chaos Emeralds. Of course this made Sonic mad, and I had never seen Sonic so mad. So to save Chris, we landed on an uncharted planet, where we met a cat/humanoid like race called the Natacur. Turns out two clans were at war with each other, each tribe thinking the other stole the prince or princess. It was thanks to a young Natacur Cub named Flicker that we found Ixis' ship. Creeping inside, we found Chris and the Prince and Princess Natacur.
But it was a trap.
Ixis had a tune playing that put hedgehogs in a trance. It nearly trapped Shadow but Metal woke him up before he could slip too far under. As for Sonic, who held the chaos Emeralds to physic Ixis out, he was already under with Silver. Silver and I were held at gun point as Ixis took the emeralds from Sonic and used them to awaken a beast called Fleetway that took over Sonic.
Thankfully the tune stopped and Shadow and Metal came up to help us as we fought Fleetway, Scourge, Fiona and Creek, an assassin mobian eagle. We finally defeated them after Silver canceled the flow of power to Fleetway and turned back into Sonic. We got Chris out and the royals back to their villages where they were wed, joining the two clans. And for rescuing them, the newlyweds gave us tons of food for the trip.
As time went on, Sonic's birthday came along and we through him a birthday party. But afterwards the emeralds spiked, showing that Fleetway wasn't completely gone. It wasn't until the spike was over (And after Fleetway gave Silver Hypothermia) that Fleetway turned back into Sonic, who didn't remember what had happened.
Suddenly Ixis attacked, using power gems to try to bring out Fleetway. To keep Fleetway hidden, Sonic left us to find a cure, and to keep the rest of us safe.
It wasn't for another week until we landed on a small planet for supplies. It was surprisingly not far from earth. But we were jumped by Fleetway. Ixis had caught him using the same creature that almost lured Shadow into darkness back in the Valley of Shadow.
Deciding to go help Sonic, we arm up and set out to save the hero. Fighting off Scourge and Fiona was easy enough, and we had hit Fleetway hard enough so he would be knocked out. But Ixis put a spell on me, sending my thoughts into Sonic's head, where the two of us had to face off with a now stronger Fleetway.
Thanks to quick thinking on Silver's behalf, he pressed a chaos Emerald into my hand, allowing me to almost become super. And thanks to this Super Form and God, Fleetway was driven from Sonic's body.
Sonic and I soon woke up again on the Blue Typhoon, where we ate and got ready for launch. Another few days later I was safe and sound back home. But my adventures were far from over. Over the next month, a new villain called Ryan Weever destroyed several villages in Mobius. To help Knothole, I allowed the Mobians to take shelter in an abandoned Ren. Fair while Rouge and Shadow went to find out who had done the damage.
The Mobians settled in quite easily, and I was made leader of The Refuge since Earth was my home. But there were troubles when a Robotic Shadow attacked and kidnapped me. Metal fought bravely to protect me, but I was still taken with Silver. I woke up to see Shadow, Rouge, and Maria Robotnic were in cells with Silver and me. Ryan wanted to use Shadow's powers against him to destroy him, but he was soon stopped when Sonic, Knuckles and an upgraded Metal rescued us.
I had also journeyed to an alternate universe with Silver, Metal and Dr. "Doc" Von Neuron where Eggman was in power, Sonic and Sally were married and had a son. Knuckles and Silver were dead, leaving Knuckles son to guard Angel Island and an alternate me was leading the Freedom fighters, calling herself Kayla Stone.
Metal had been captured by a black hedgehog Echidna mix that could control sound, and Dr. Robotnic, a pure evil version of Eggman that make Eggman look like a cuddly grandfather. They tortured Metal and even turned him into an android. When we went to save him, we discovered that the halfbreed was named Blade, and he and Silver were brothers. He was also forced to serve Robotnic and The Master after Silver's death while he was in a weak state. He also didn't trust Doctors. But he allowed Doc to take his collar off. But we were soon captured and I discovered who The Master was. Robert Hopkins. My worst enemy.
He was about to end us when the Freedom Fighter busted in and stopped him. Doc managed to open a portal back home, where we brought Blade with us, but I had a feeling I would see Robert again soon.
It wasn't until the summer I started college that my latest adventure began. After a call from Sonic, Metal and I were returning to Mobius, when a boy I met at college barged in and attacked Metal, thinking he was kidnapping me. After a long skirmish in Mobius, I found out it was my long lost friend Ty Johnson.
We head for the infirmary where a Mobian bat boy lay hurt on a bed. He told us he was lost and he didn't have much memory. But after we visit Angel Island and a spike happens, turning me into an echidna, Shade (the bat) Told us that his home was under the Constellation "The Guardian."
So, we hire a ship called the Serenity and set sail. But we ran into a storm that ripped off. We stopped at an island to repair it where we see more bats fly over, getting Shade excited. After the bats flew over, Ty and I got into an argument, and I walked off mad. But as I was about to go back and say sorry, I got kidnapped by the bats that flew over and taken to a castle where Robert was waiting for me. He hooked me up to a machine and filled me with negative Chaos Energy.
I don't remember much of what happened, only that I felt like I was fighting the darkness that was suddenly crushing me. Next thing I knew, I was in Ty's arms, being kissed by him… Anyway! The kiss had turned the negative Energy into positive, giving me my Super form and giving Ty a Keyblade.
Robert got away, but we made easy scrap of the robotic insects and rescued the captives that Robert had taken. And during the fight, Shade had regained his memories, that he was the Keepers son and his real name was Kai.
I got back to my studio/apartment about three months ago. But I've noticed that the stars are going out… the last time that happened was when Mephilis was running rampant through Mobius… but I've also noticed the night felt…. darker…
Little did I know about the adventures that awaited me, Metal, and Ty.
