Series 1: Heroes of Luxia

Ep. 01:The Beginning

Hey, everyone. I thought I ought to get this up since, as you might know, today is Sonic's 20th anniversary! Anyway, hope you enjoy! - MH

The sounds of battle filled the air around Luxia City. Dozens of troopers dashed along the metallic roads of the city. They hurried and took cover along the alleys to the side of the road. They pressed their bodies covered with green metallic armor against the walls of the many skyscrapers. On their shoulder pads was the emblem of their army: a blue and green planet in space with the letters G.E.A.R (Galactic Enforcement Army and Representatives) across it.

The team's leader, Commander Nex, was breathing silently in his helmet, waiting.

"What should we do Commander?" One of the troopers, Panther, asked him.

"Shh. Wait," Nex whispered.

The whole world seemed to fall into silence. Just as the Commander began to wonder what had happened, an explosion shook the skyscraper next to them.

As Swift looked down the road, he saw a squad of Stormers heading towards them. The robots had white armor with yellow stripes sometimes cutting across it. They were armed with small missile launchers on their shoulders, and laser rifle in one arm.

The Stormers took one look at the troopers and started to fire.

"Take cover!" Nex shouted to his men.

The troopers quickly rushed to the sides of the streets, taking cover by anything they could find and started to fire back at the robots.

"All units," Nex told them, "Focus your firepower on splitting the group!"

The group fought ferociously, but even split, the mechs were leaving a trail of destruction.

"Drat! They're causing too much damage!" A trooper shouted.

"Hunter's right. We need to finish this off as quick as possible!" Nex told the others.

The trooper fought as hard as they could, but were starting to be pushed back.

"Blast!" Nex cursed, "Where is he?"

Suddenly something zoomed past him and smashed into one of the nearby robots, sending it crashing down. When he looked, he saw a blue hedgehog standing with a smirk on his face.

"Sonic!" He shouted.

"Sorry I'm late guys. Need any help?" Sonic asked them.

"As much as you can give us," Nex told him.

Sonic smiled and dashed forward.

The Stormers all spotted him and started firing. Sonic simply zoomed side-to-side to avoid the shots as he rushed towards them. He jumped and Spin Dashed straight to the first one, destroying it. He landed on the head of one of the others. A nearby robot saw him and fired. Sonic jumped, causing the shot to hit the robot he was on. The robot staggered a bit and looked up, trying to see him. The second tried to fire once more only to hit the other bot once more.

"Too easy," he said as he landed on the ground, the bot clunked to the ground.

With his help, the troopers slowly began to push the Stormers back.

Then, one of the Stormers activated its boosters and rocketed towards him.

"Catch me if you can!" Sonic taunted as he ran up one of the buildings.

The robot used its boosters to rocket up to the roof of the building, where Sonic was waiting. Once he landed the robot immediately began firing. Sonic ran around the roof, avoiding the shots. The robot didn't let up though, and continued to fire. After a while he managed to create an explosion close to where he was running, sending him backwards, hanging off the edge of the building.

"Maybe this wasn't such a good idea," he said as he looked at the long way down.

The robot slowly approached him and pointed his gun. Just as it was about to fire though, something smashed into it from behind, sending the robot falling off the building. When Sonic looked, he saw a dark red hedgehog standing.

"Need any help?" the hedgehog asked, smiling.

"Thanks," Sonic said as the hedgehog helped him up.

"Come on," the hedgehog told him as he ran down the building. Sonic quickly followed him.

When they reached the ground, they saw that there were only a few robots left.

"Let me handle these," the hedgehog told him.

Only then did Sonic notice what the hedgehog had in his hands. A long, shining sword with some type of markings on it. He smirked and ran at the robots. He reached the first one and slashed the sword straight through him. They all started firing at him, but he simply dodged side to side. He jumped and landed on the head of another one. He dived the sword straight through the robots head. The robots head sent off a few sparks and exploded, along with the rest of the body. Sonic was amazed as he saw the hedgehog slash and slash, downing one Stormer after another. Finally, there was nothing left but metal scraps. The troopers all cheered at Sonic and the red hedgehog.

Suddenly a violet hedgehog came running at them. "Luke!" She told the hedgehog beside Sonic.

"Relax, Karyn," the red hedgehog told her.

"Wait a second," Sonic interrupted, "Who are you two?"

Well, there it is! The first chapter! I'll update as soon as I can. Anyway, Sonic does not belong to me.

He is property of SEGA. All other locations and characters belong to me.
