Hey, guys. Johntohigh here. Sorry I've been gone for so long. I just got a YouTube channel I've been trying to run called Hotaru Shinpei, not to mention having to juggle high school and suffering from writer's block. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Anyway, I love the new game Sonic Forces, but I felt it was in desperate need of a rewrite or two. So I decided to do just that. It takes place in the same universe as the Archie Sonic comics, so if you see any Archie characters, this is the reason. And Sticks, several Sega characters, the Freedom Planet trio, an OC I made, and the TMNT are in it, too.
And while we're at it, I do not own Sonic the Hedgehog, any of the franchises characters, the Sega characters, or any other characters. They are owned by Sega, Sonic Team, GalaxyTrail, and Nickelodeon. I do own the OC I made, so no stealing.
Earth. Home to water, glorious landmarks, elements, and organic lifeforms. A melting pot of people and plantlife and home to many heroes. Home of one of its most powerful warriors of all time; Sonic the Hedgehog. And to his enemy, Dr. Ivo Robotnik, though nowadays people refer to him as Eggman. He was a mad scientist, and had a master plan to take over the world and rebuild it as a world he called "Eggmanland." The thought of happiness and prosperity made him sick, and he wanted nothing more than to do away with it. He was in his base with his two robot lackeys, Orbot and Cubot. He was having inventor's block, meaning he was having some difficulty coming up with robot designs for attack bots. Leave it to your imagination what they looked like. "Hmph, no. No. No! NO! NO!" He grumbled. "Is something the matter, boss?" Orbot asked. "No, you dolt!" Eggman shouted. Orbot just looked at him suspiciously. "Ok, yes. I've acquired a little...inventor's block. I can't think of any new robot designs. My last one was a huge failure!" "You mean the Egg Dealer?" "Don't remind me. Why didn't you tell me making a robotic slot machine was a bad idea?!" "Well, how was I supposed to know it would power Shadow up?" "True. That was a really bad idea." Then, Cubot came in, in a bit on a frenzy. "Guys, guys!" "Cubot, what's the matter?" "The proximity scanners picked up a weird energy signature nearby!" "Really? Well, show us where it's coming from!" Eggman demanded.
Cubot took Orbot and Eggman outside, where he led them to a desert patch and he pointed to a crystalline shape in the sand. "So, that's where the signature came from? A small crystal in the sand?" Orbot asked. "Not just any crystal. When I touched it, I saw a land with sweets, hot dogs and coffee waterfalls as far as the eye could see!" Interested, Eggman touched the crystal. After he did, he saw Eggmanland finally come to pass. In his astonishment, he dropped the crystal, and the vision began to fade. "No, wait! Bring it back!" But it was too late. The vision was gone. Eggman groaned in disappointment, but picked up the crystal from the sand. "That was amazing. Orbot, you have got to try this!" He brought the crystal over to Orbot, who reluctantly touched it. He saw a vision of a library for robots, with a small coffee shop in the corner. He was astonished too.
Eggman got an idea. Since his plan with the Time Eater had failed, he thought of something that could wreck Sonic for good. "Somehow this mysterious gem cause those hallucinations. That could be useful. Prepare to be researched, jewel!"
