Sonic Gaiden: SatAm Saga, a SEGA/SatAM crossover.
I am not the millonaire who created Sonic the Hedgehog.
I own Ivan Cameron, Melfice, and Temjin. Trey is just a minor character.
Grey Wolf: Whoo! The second in the saga! But first, it would mean a lot if you read my freind and fellow writer's anime original works, White Tigar's Shining Fate trilogy. Even though that I want to ram my fist through his face, I have to admit that it's a good read. (It's a strange coincidence that we both made a trilogy. Even though I only knew that he was going to make two writings. Oh well) For those who just have to know, the next Saga will be called Sonic Gaiden: -M Saga. Think hard enough and you'll see where I'm going.
NOTE TO THOSE WHO DIDN'T READ SONIC GAIDEN: PROWER SAGA:
Read it. If you continue to read this, you will be lost in some of the details in this story.
Also: If you're going to e-mail us something, please state to who it's for i.e. "To BladeRaven" or "Talon"
Chapter 1: Unusual Business As Usual REMEMBER TO REVIEW!!!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"One more coat of polish should do it," Knuckles said as he rubbed a cloth an a red snowboard that was propped up on a tree. "Can't wait to take this baby to the mountains in my Artic Zone." He was standing by his handmade hut near the Master Emerald shrine near the edge of the island.
He noticed the thinning of the clouds and walked toward the edge of the floating world wonder. "I must be passing over the mainland now," He said to himself. "Home to 'civilization', people, freinds, and Rouge." He walked back over to the tree, "It's just every time I try to get down to the surface, to fend off boredom, or find a sutible mate, I fail in my duity. Sometimes the trouble comes straight to me."
"Sometimes I think this island asks too much of me," he said into the air. "But I must follow in my ancestor's footsteps and protect the Emerald. Not for the pride, but for the protection of the world."
He turned to the interior of the island, "But Rouge...did I do the right thing? No, of course I didn't. I should have stayed, and now you and Fang can take all of the joyrides on his Marvelous Queen all the hell you want." He looked at the mountain tops in the distance.
"At least peace is prevailent here."
A low rumbling vibrated the ground under his feet. The snow on the caps of the peaks were pouring down thier slopes. "What in the world is happening!?"
A bright flash of light nearly blinded Knuckles. After he stopped shelding his eyes, he saw an egg-shaped green thing zip off the mountain peak, leaving a smoky trail behind. It veered off from its straight path from the sky and dived toward the ground toward the mainland. On its way down, it nearly clipped the side of the island and almost plowed through Knuckles. Knuckles went toward the edge of the floating island to catch a glimpse of the ship spiral down into Station Square.
"Someone was on the island?!" Knuckles yelled. He heard a wooshing noise, and the source seemed to be coming his way. He saw it come nearer and nearer. As it came closer it kicked up sand, clouding the view of whatever it was. Knuckles didn't know what to do, but before he could react, it had stopped right in front of him. The dust cleared and showed a familar face.
"Sonic?! What are you doing here?!" Knuckles asked.
"There's no time to explain, I need to use this!" Sonic said as he grabbed the red snowboard and leapt off of the side of the island before Knuckles can even respond. Knuckles looked around in disbelief.
"I'm going to have to find out what happened up there," Knuckles thought.
***********************************************************************
"........................?"
"...strange.....awareness?"
"It is awkward...." a young female voice added. "....what is the disturbance?"
"...I don't know..." the male voice replied. ".....Vee..can you tell?"
"No...I-I cannot....I do not have a controll device......" Vee, the female, drifted off.
"Why not.....I had sent mine eons ago....."
"Emn, I couldn't risk a controll device being sent......" Vee replied. "...do you think it's possible to use yours?"
Emn replied with some doubt in his tone, "...no....I can only see the present and danger....not rearranged from history and life.." he paused. "..Chaos and Time......"
"........I still refuse to send my controll...I might be sent like the many times you have...."
"Then we will wait and see....foolhearted mortals should never have found my shrines..."
"..Emn....if so, what... will we do?"
"Hope that it hasn't happened."
*****************************************************************
"Man, I'll never will belive it....why, why, why...." Sonic said as he looked at his living room. Everything had been splattered with a red substance, and a body-shaped figure was covered with a white cloth that was stained red. The doorbell rang.
"Jeez...it took you guys a day to get here!! The door's open!" Sonic yelled. He heard his front door open and heavy footsteps came near. He turned around to meet several men dressed in black holding large cloth bags.
"Good morning sir, I hope that your spirts isn't down because of this. Have a strong heart!" the jumpsuit, a dog, in front of the group said to Sonic.
"Sure, it's just that-..." Soinc stopped himself when he pointed to the red body on the floor.
"Don't worry," another one, a man, said. "A case like this, you'll be glad that you hired us."
One of them walked up to the thing covered with the red bedsheet and slightly lifted it up. "Who's the culprit?"
"My chao, Speedy," Sonic said. One of them spoke up.
"Hmm..we get this alot..chaos are unpradictable when left alone too long," he said. "..so it's a case that it's the owner's fault,"
"I know, I was only gone for one week," Sonic said, knowing how bad he sounded.
One of the jumpsuits ran his finger over the wall, through a red blot then sniffed it. "Hmm...cherries....this 'ill need some deep cleanin',"
"Sonic...er..no last name...we'll need you to vacate the premises for a while.." One of them said. Sonic nodded and headed out of the door. The men empited their bags of the vacums and steamers. The dog pulled up the sheet covering the mass on the floor and revealed a statue of Sonic that had it's leg broken off.
"Wow. That's a tough chao."
Well, across the city...................
"Ding-dong!" the doorbell echoed though the hall. The bell decided to become impatient. "Ding-dong-ding-dong-ding-ding-ding-ding-!!!"
"I coming! Keep your shirt on!" Amy yelled, running to the door barefoot and clad only in a towel. She unlocked the door and swing it open. "I was changing my clothes and whatintheworld?!?!" She saw what had came to her door. A large living mass of exotic flowers nearly bigger than the door to her apartment was at her doorstep. Appearently, it can talk.
"G' morning Miss Rose....a floral delevery from Sonic ...Hyassa...I think... can I s-set this down somewhere, PLEASE!?" a hoarse voice emerged from the explosion of colerful petals.
"Uh, sure...come inside," Amy said. The thing came instde and the flower arrangement made contact with the floor in her cozy living room. A small mole emerged from it and handed Amy a card.
"This is from Sonic...um..Hyassa also.." the mole said.
"Sonic's last name isn't Hyassa.....at least I don't think it is," Amy said.
"Anyway, have a good day ma'm," the mole said on his exit.
"Sonic always goes overkill on things like this, not that I'm not complaining though," Amy said to herself. She opened the card and read it aloud so we can hear.
"These will never equal to 1/10000 of your beauty"....."Sonic"
"He's a sweet one." She said to herself. She looked at the card again. "1/10000? Why not 1/0000000 or 1/0000000000?"
Oh, boy...In the streets of Staion Square, Station Square that later that morning.................
"Wow, everything....," Sonic said in wonder while looking at the tall buildings. He was standing on the sidewalk being brushed away by people walking by. "....it looks like Metropolis! Before the coup de 'eat! It's like it never happened!" He began to walk looking at the people passing by. "Overlanders and Furmorphs! Together in harmony!" He walked more and more, he arched his kneck to see the sky. "The Sun! White clouds! Blue sky!" He bumped into something soft. A bear weraing an apron, manning a food cart.
"Hey Sonic watchit!" the vendor said. Sonic looked at what he was selling.
"Chilliiii dooooogzzz!!!!" the hedgehog yelled in triumph. "Gimme!!"
"Uh, sure..." the bear said. He prepared three and handed them to Sonic on a paper plate. Sonic instantly began to eat them. "I thought you were all 'health foods and exersise'," the bear commented.
"Really?" Sonic said. "Hey, I want more."
"You'll have to pay for the ones you just ate, pal, before I give you more," the bear said. Sonic reached into the brown leather backpack on his back and pulled out some paper money. He handed it to the bear.
"Is this some kind of a joke?" the bears said, looking at the money. "A 'Mobian'? Sorry kid, but I take dollar bills, not play money." He paused. "Three dollar bills and two rings."
"Oh, no........"
"Hey Sonic!" he heard a familiar voice say. He turned to see the source and saw a pink female hedgehog wearing a blue tennis-miniskirt outfit that had srtipes running down the sides. He really didn't know who it was, so he waved.
Unfortunately, that seemed to mean 'come over' to the girl.
"Sonic!" she said as she leaped up into his arms. As soon as she did, though, she planted a kiss on his lips. She looked at him with a coked eyebrow. "Chili dogs?"
"Hey, how's it going?" Sonic said, playing along.
"Oh, fine,fine. I was removed from covert ops and placed into detective work," She said as if Sonic knew what the hell she was talking about. "..that's why I couldn't return any of your calls last night. Very busy."
"Hey Amy," the hotdog vendor said. "But me and Sonic have a small problem as of now."
"Yes Amy," Sonic said. Amy? Amy Rose? That annoying eight-year-old? She looks as old as I am! Wow she's cute...well...uh....
"What kind of a problem?" Amy asked while letting go of Sonic.
"He just downed three chilidogs without paying me and he's broke," the bear said.
"Sonic? You don't have your wallet? Don't you keep it in the tounge of your shoe?" Amy asked. She looked at Sonic's feet. "Oh, you're wearing your old shoes. I'll pay for it," Amy said as she reached into her purse. She handed him the money and turned to Sonic. "Do you want to go somewhere today?" She asked.
"Uh sure, why not?" Sonic replied.
"Can you run me back to my house? I gotta feed my pet," she said as she showed him a paper bag. But Sonic didn't know where she lived. Gotta find an excuse.
"Um, let's take a taxi....," Sonic said. Excuse! Excuse! Excuse! "...I don't want you to mess up your hair."
"Uh...okay," she replied. Sonic waved and almost caused a three taxi pile-up on the curb near him. Sonic opened the nearest one and sat down inside. Amy plopped her firm behind onto his lap. The taxi driver turned and recognized the two.
"Hey ya crazy kids, where to?" he asked. Amy said some incomprehensible address and the taxi pulled off.
The Station Square Central Staion.......(betya can't say that five times fast)....
Miles yawned as he stepped out of the train. He hauled his backpack over his shoulder and walked out with the same non-awakeness as the other teens walking out of the station. Yep, heading to S.S. High. Half awake. Knowing that second period history will aid in his sleep recovery. As soon as he stepped out of the large building, he immedeately entered a crowd.
"What's going on?" Tails said to himself. It seemed as if one third of Station Square's population was there.
"Hey Tails!" he heard a voice say. He turned to see his friend Trey, a fox. This guy was a freshman, though Tails was a senior (skipped grades) so he seemed more friendly than some of his classmates.
"What's going on?" Tails asked.
"King Acorn is going to give a speech!"
"How come?"
"He's going to tell what he'll do because the Station Square president died."
"Oh, right. Then why are you here?"
"To skip class and scope out the king's daughter."
"She's here too?"
"When does he start?"
"Pretty soon, I think."
"Hey Miles!" Tails heard. He saw the source. The beautiful Rouge the Bat was standing at the base of the steps in her GUN uniform of black pants, black halter top, and silver "G" jacket with her black wings emerging from the slits in the back. "You were on your way to school?"
"Wow, who's the hottie? She knows you?" Trey asked.
"She's my friend, Rouge," Tails said as he waved and continued down the stone steps. "Don't call her that, she'll kick your ass."
"Hey Rouge, why are you here?" Tails asked. Trey stood in awe.
"Secruity reasons," Rouge replied. "Keepin' the peace by smacking anyone who gets too rowdy. Ironic, isn't it? But it works."
"Is it okay if we stay to see?" Tails said.
"Sure go ahead, I won't get ya in trouble," Rouge replied.
"H-hi..m-my name's Tra-Tra," Trey stammered to get some words out of his mouth.
"Trey, wake up," Tails said as he punched him in the arm. The blue fox snapped out of it.
"Is he your friend?" Rouge asked. "Get him some coffe or something, he doesn't look that well."
"Oh no, he's always like this," Tails said as he pushed Trey ahead of him. "I'll see you later."
"See ya," she replied.
Meanwhile.................
"This is your place? Its kinda....cozy," Sonic said, trying not to be offenseive. He stood in the entrance hall. He looked around and spotted some paintings on the wall.
"I know it's small, but I'm barely home thanks to my job. Didn't I already tell you that?" Amy replied. "Where do you want to go to today?" she asked.
"Can we check on Tails first?"
"Why? I mean, don't you think he's gotten old enough to take care of himself?"
Must find an excuse! "I left something at his place."
"Oh, alright. But wait, isn't he at school?"
The world's not in a crisis, of course he'd be in school. "Oh..um...," Just as he started to talk, the most bizzare thing had just grabbed onto his leg.
"Hiiiiii Sonnikkuuu!!" it blurted. Sonic looked down to see a soft, dewdrop-shaped thing clinging to his right leg. It had little wings on its back and the whole animal was tinted pink.
"Oh my god, get it off me!" Sonic yelled. Amy ran over and picked the thing up.
"Don't have a heart attack, it's just Cutie," Amy said while snuggling the thing. It took on a smile on its face and a heart appeared over its head. Amy put it down. Sonic saw another one of those monsters walk into the room. Execept, it looked like him.
"Is that a cutie too?" Sonic said, pointing at it. Amy looked at him strangely.
"Uh, yeah he's cute. That's Speedy, you dropped him off after he threw fruit around in your condo." she walked up to him and put her hand to Sonic's forehead. "Honey, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm okay," Oh no, she's getting suspicious, and I wasn't supposed to bring her! "Why do you ask?"
"You were eating chilidogs when I found you, you refused a chance to run, and now you freak out when a chao grabbed your leg," Amy said. "Anyway I gotta feed them," She walked out of the room. Sonic mustered up some courage to crouch down to the blue one.
"So...you're a 'chow' aren't you? Creepy and cute at the same time," Sonic said.
"So...you're a 'furmorph' aren't you? Smelly and hairy at the same time...." Speedy replied.
"Okay, you guys, I got your favorites!" Amy said, paperbag in hand. Both of the little things scampered over and Amy handed out some of the stangest fruit Sonic had ever seen. Amy handed Speedy a giant cherry. Then handed a giant peach to cutie. Speedy started to complain.
"I don't wannit! I want pie! Pie! Pie!" it yelled.
"That's not healthy for a chao, you need to eat fruit too," she said.
"I. Don't. WANNIT!" the chao said as it tossed the fruit at Amy, splattering all over her. Her fur and clothes were all red with cherry juice.
"Ohhhh!!! And I just bought this too!" Amy said. "I hope this doesn't mess with my fur dye, those color jobs aren't cheap." The two chao ran from the room.
"Are you okay?" Sonic asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Amy said. "Now I gotta shower before I get all sticky,"
"Okay, i'll wait," Sonic replied. Please hurry, we have to find the others!
"Hmm....unless you wanna join me?" Amy asked with a slightly lower tone. "Play a little hanky-panky?"
"N-no that's okay," Sonic said, avoiding her wish. "I don't do that."
"Oh really? Such a liar," Amy replied. "You must be really sick."
"Why's that?" Sonic said. Good God, this 'other me' must be one hell of a guy.
"You don't remember? Dropping off Speedy wasn't all you did....." she took a peice of cherry skin from its resting place on her head. "You were sooo naughty, had your hands all over me."
"I uh..," Excuse! Excuse! "..think I might be coming down with something. I don't want to pass it to you."
"Fine, be that way!" Amy said in a huff and headed out of the room.
"Whoo, that was close!" Sonic said to himself.
Over the ocean.....................
"Concentrate harder!" Mel yelled to a floating black figure near the horizon. "Controll it, don't let it controll you!" he floated above the water, his metallic feet dipping in and out of the water. He brushed back the long dreadlocks that emerged from the back of his chrome-colored head.
"CHA-OS CONTROLLLLL!!!!!" the figure yelled. It turned into a red streak that headed toward Melfice. Melfice did the same, and they rushed eachother. Mel passed by and tossed Shadow another chaos drive. Shadow snatched it in mid-air. The aura of red energy grew wider around him.
"You got it!" Mel yelled. "Do it now!"
"PLANET DIVERRRR!!!' Shadow yelled. A red explosion shaped like a shpere grew the blue ocean. The water caved down around him.
"Uhh..rrrrrghhh..." Shadow's body was shocked with pain. A pounding pressure ran from the heel of his foot and the top of his skull. This proved to be too much for Shadow's capability and fell inside. He was caught by Mel and was flown above the water before the temporary crater caved in. The water rushed to fill the empty gap and sprayed the two with the salty brine.
"You okay?" Mel asked.
"Yeah, yeah," Shadow said. "It's hard to do, and I still haven't mastered flying yet."
"It takes time," Mel assured him. "Me and Jin had been training for over thrity years."
"That means that I have a lot of catching up to do," Shadow said.
Station Square, Station Square, Central Station.....(bet ya can't..er..never mind)...
The king walked up to the podium that rested near the edge of the wooden stage set up in the main plaza. The Station Square Hotel's doors were directly behind him. The audience stretched all the way back to the encrance of Twinkle Park. All eyes were on him.
This man single-handedly brought peace to the humans and furmorphs by stopping the Great War. And had averted the Coup d 'eat Robotnik had staged right after the war. He had planned early, because of the surplus of weapons and military vehicles being surged into Metropolis, GUN's capital, and had put an investigation into it before the victory parade started. As it truned out, Robotnik was found out about the unessesary arms smuggle and had been exiled to the east ever since.
"My people of GUN..." Max started. He extened his arms from his red cape that surrounded his body and gripped the podium. The red cape revealed his attire, which was a suit of composite armor to protect against assailants of the like. It's not known of king Maxwell Acorn having enimies, but protection was needed just in case. Near the rear of the stage, sat a young and beautiful redhead female chipmunk on a folding chair. "...I join you today on a sad note. As we all know, our President of the Staion Square Nation of GUN has passed away. For now, I will take his place untill we elect our new Station Square president. I will act as king and president for Station Square....."
"Hmph, full of hot air," Fang said to himself. "I'm not a man of politics, but I know when someone's just givin' lipservice to his GUN council." He stood in the midst of the crowd.
"Relax, you're not here to listen to the speech anyway," Ivan said over the radio tucked in the weasel's ear.
"I know, I know," Fang said as he brushed his hair out of his eyes. "The targets are?"
"The assailant is probably a Leather Jacket," Ivan replied.
"Rai-On's cronies?"
"No, Smithy's," Ivan said. "I have intercepted a communicae' for an assasination."
"Really? King Max?"
"No, Sally Acorn,"
"Hmm, interesting. Probably to make Max step down, make him soft to negotiate," Fang said.
"Exactly."
"Then how will we find the to-be murderer?" Fang asked in a low voice to makes sure no one else heard him.
"That's the problem."
"And that's why GUN has asked for my services once again. They don't know a thing anymore." Fang paused. "Then how the hell will we find him then?"
"Your cunning and clairvoyance," Ivan replied.
"Great, I have to guess."
Elsewhere in the mass of people......
"Man, where's the party at?" Sonic said to himself as he entered Station Square Cental Square. He was nearly bored to death. "First, Amy never returned any of my phonecalls. Second, she wasn't even home this morning. And even worse, I can't even get back to my house!" He looked at the stage. "Great, another speech from Max Acorn. Maybe someone I know is here."
"Hey, it's Sonic the Hedgehog!" "Can I have your autograph?" "It's Sonic!" Sonic's ears heard as he wiggled into the massive crowd. He just answered them with passive waving. He spotted someone. Tails standing next to a goofily colored blue fox.
"Hey Tails, why aren't you at school?" he asked. His voice was almost drowned out completely by the king's speech over the speakers.
"I stayed to see the speech," Tails replied.
Walking out of the entrance of Central Station.............
Rouge spotted them. "Hey Sonic! Hey Amy!" Sonic didn't have a clue who that was, but Amy sure did.
"'Morning Rouge?" Amy replied. "Oh, you weren't off today?"
"Nope, was on call all last night," she replied. "I see that you two are trying to head to winkle park."
"Well, no. Actually we were trying to find Rotor, Bunnie, and the rest of our friends," Sonic said.
"What in the world are you talking about, Sonic?" Amy stated. "Who's Rotor? And more importantly, WHO's Bunnie?!"
It again dawned on Sonic. "Oh, umm..just some people that I....owe money to." 'Damn, all I have found was just some no-body's, not the people I'm looking for. I can't pull these people into this, I gotta find Sonic without making a mess.' Sonic thought.
"Sonic owing money?" Rouge said. "Never heard of that before."
"Yeah, it's strange, I know," Sonic said. "Hey, what's going on out here?" Sonic pointed out to the stage.
"King Maxwell Acorn is giving a speech," Rouge said.
"Oh, I head about this in the news this morning," Amy said.
"King Acorn? Is Princess Sally here too?" Sonic asked the two. Rouge nodded. "Alright, I have to talk with her."
"Why is that?" Amy asked.
"Something happened, and I have to round up a few people."
"The princess? What could she be involved in?" Rouge said. Just at that moment the female redhead chipmunk walked up to the podium to speak.
"I will also acompany my father during his stay here. I wish to interact with all of the citzens of Station Square......" she started.
"Wait, that's not her," Sonic said.
"What are you talking about? There's only one Sally Acorn." Amy said.
Meanwhile...........
"Ivan, I think we found our man," Fang said while focusing his target sight at one member of the audience. A man wearing a loose gray jacket and camo pants. "This guy's plannin' a party. He's got an uzi, a plasma gun and a large knife."
"A typical anti-furmorph human," Ivan replied. "Smithy's got nothin' but those freaks."
"Uh-oh, he making his move now," Fang said as he began clear his way to the assasin. It was easier to move around because he had shed his black trenchcoat earlier. The man began walking faster and faster to the stage, eyes locked on the princess. Fang caught up and extended a gun to the back of the assasin's head.
"Heh. Don't move buddy. I wouldn't want you to splatter your brains all over some of these people," Fang said. People surrounding them went into a panic and spread away from the two. Everyone seemed to be caught up and confused, sending the entire square into chaos.
"Ha, so you found me out," the brown-haired man said. In a swift motion, the man shifted away and turned to Fang. Fang was caught in surprise as he was socked in the face by the man. He countered with a blow of his own.
Soon, the crowd was being cleaved apart as someone made their way through. Across, someone else was doing the same. The both had the same target in mind. Fang proved to be a more worthy fighter than the asssasin and delivered a punch to the man's head that knocked him out cold. Just as he did, though, two blue blurrs stopped over the man's body. Fang was thrown into surprise.
"I was too slow! I should have stopped the killer myself!" Sonic said. He looked at the person in front of him. "What!? You're...me!!!"
"Finally, I found me!!" the other Sonic said. "I need your help," he said as he extened his hand for a handshake. Sonic shook his hand. "I am Sonic the Hedgehog, savior of Mobius."

"One more coat of polish should do it," Knuckles said as he rubbed a cloth an a red snowboard that was propped up on a tree. "Can't wait to take this baby to the mountains in my Artic Zone." He was standing by his handmade hut near the Master Emerald shrine near the edge of the island.
He noticed the thinning of the clouds and walked toward the edge of the floating world wonder. "I must be passing over the mainland now," He said to himself.

"Man, I'll never will belive it....why, why, why...." Sonic said as he looked at his living room. Everything had been splattered with a red substance, and a body-shaped figure was covered with a white cloth that was stained red. The doorbell rang.
"Jeez...it took you guys a day to get here!! The door's open!" Sonic yelled. He heard his front door open and heavy footsteps came near. He turned around to meet several men dressed in black holding large cloth bags.
"Good morning sir, I hope that your spirts isn't down because of this. Have a strong heart!" the jumpsuit, a dog, in front of the group said to Sonic.
"Sure, it's just that-..." Soinc stopped himself when he pointed to the red body on the floor.
"Don't worry," another one, a man, said. "A case like this, you'll be glad that you hired us."
One of them walked up to the thing covered with the red bedsheet and slightly lifted it up. "Who's the culprit?"
"My chao, Speedy," Sonic said. One of them spoke up.
"Hmm..we get this alot..chaos are unpradictable when left alone too long," he said. "..so it's a case that it's the owner's fault,"
"I know, I was only gone for one week," Sonic said, knowing how bad he sounded.
One of the jumpsuits ran his finger over the wall, through a red blot then sniffed it. "Hmm...cherries....this 'ill need some deep cleanin',"
"Sonic...er..no last name...we'll need you to vacate the premises for a while.." One of them said. Sonic nodded and headed out of the door. The men empited their bags of the vacums and steamers. The dog pulled up the sheet covering the mass on the floor and revealed a statue of Sonic that had it's leg broken off.
"Wow. That's a tough chao."
Well, across the city...................
"Ding-dong!" the doorbell echoed though the hall. The bell decided to become impatient. "Ding-dong-ding-dong-ding-ding-ding-ding-!!!"
"I coming! Keep your shirt on!" Amy yelled, running to the door barefoot and clad only in a towel. She unlocked the door and swing it open. "I was changing my clothes and whatintheworld?!?!" She saw what had came to her door. A large living mass of exotic flowers nearly bigger than the door to her apartment was at her doorstep. Appearently, it can talk.
"G' morning Miss Rose....a floral delevery from Sonic ...Hyassa...I think... can I s-set this down somewhere, PLEASE!?" a hoarse voice emerged from the explosion of colerful petals.
"Uh, sure...come inside," Amy said. The thing came instde and the flower arrangement made contact with the floor in her cozy living room. A small mole emerged from it and handed Amy a card.
"This is from Sonic...um..Hyassa also.." the mole said.
"Sonic's last name isn't Hyassa.....at least I don't think it is," Amy said.
"Anyway, have a good day ma'm," the mole said on his exit.
"Sonic always goes overkill on things like this, not that I'm not complaining though," Amy said to herself. She opened the card and read it aloud so we can hear.
"These will never equal to 1/10000 of your beauty"....."Sonic"
"He's a sweet one." She said to herself. She looked at the card again. "1/10000? Why not 1/0000000 or 1/0000000000?"
Oh, boy...In the streets of Staion Square, Station Square that later that morning.................
"Wow, everything....," Sonic said in wonder while looking at the tall buildings. He was standing on the sidewalk being brushed away by people walking by. "....it looks like Metropolis! Before the coup de 'eat! It's like it never happened!" He began to walk looking at the people passing by. "Overlanders and Furmorphs! Together in harmony!" He walked more and more, he arched his kneck to see the sky. "The Sun! White clouds! Blue sky!" He bumped into something soft. A bear weraing an apron, manning a food cart.
"Hey Sonic watchit!" the vendor said. Sonic looked at what he was selling.
"Chilliiii dooooogzzz!!!!" the hedgehog yelled in triumph. "Gimme!!"
"Uh, sure..." the bear said. He prepared three and handed them to Sonic on a paper plate. Sonic instantly began to eat them. "I thought you were all 'health foods and exersise'," the bear commented.
"Really?" Sonic said. "Hey, I want more."
"You'll have to pay for the ones you just ate, pal, before I give you more," the bear said. Sonic reached into the brown leather backpack on his back and pulled out some paper money. He handed it to the bear.
"Is this some kind of a joke?" the bears said, looking at the money. "A 'Mobian'? Sorry kid, but I take dollar bills, not play money." He paused. "Three dollar bills and two rings."
"Oh, no........"
"Hey Sonic!" he heard a familiar voice say. He turned to see the source and saw a pink female hedgehog wearing a blue tennis-miniskirt outfit that had srtipes running down the sides. He really didn't know who it was, so he waved.
Unfortunately, that seemed to mean 'come over' to the girl.
"Sonic!" she said as she leaped up into his arms. As soon as she did, though, she planted a kiss on his lips. She looked at him with a coked eyebrow. "Chili dogs?"
"Hey, how's it going?" Sonic said, playing along.
"Oh, fine,fine. I was removed from covert ops and placed into detective work," She said as if Sonic knew what the hell she was talking about. "..that's why I couldn't return any of your calls last night. Very busy."
"Hey Amy," the hotdog vendor said. "But me and Sonic have a small problem as of now."
"Yes Amy," Sonic said. Amy? Amy Rose? That annoying eight-year-old? She looks as old as I am! Wow she's cute...well...uh....
"What kind of a problem?" Amy asked while letting go of Sonic.
"He just downed three chilidogs without paying me and he's broke," the bear said.
"Sonic? You don't have your wallet? Don't you keep it in the tounge of your shoe?" Amy asked. She looked at Sonic's feet. "Oh, you're wearing your old shoes. I'll pay for it," Amy said as she reached into her purse. She handed him the money and turned to Sonic. "Do you want to go somewhere today?" She asked.
"Uh sure, why not?" Sonic replied.
"Can you run me back to my house? I gotta feed my pet," she said as she showed him a paper bag. But Sonic didn't know where she lived. Gotta find an excuse.
"Um, let's take a taxi....," Sonic said. Excuse! Excuse! Excuse! "...I don't want you to mess up your hair."
"Uh...okay," she replied. Sonic waved and almost caused a three taxi pile-up on the curb near him. Sonic opened the nearest one and sat down inside. Amy plopped her firm behind onto his lap. The taxi driver turned and recognized the two.
"Hey ya crazy kids, where to?" he asked. Amy said some incomprehensible address and the taxi pulled off.
The Station Square Central Staion.......(betya can't say that five times fast)....
Miles yawned as he stepped out of the train. He hauled his backpack over his shoulder and walked out with the same non-awakeness as the other teens walking out of the station. Yep, heading to S.S. High. Half awake. Knowing that second period history will aid in his sleep recovery. As soon as he stepped out of the large building, he immedeately entered a crowd.
"What's going on?" Tails said to himself. It seemed as if one third of Station Square's population was there.
"Hey Tails!" he heard a voice say. He turned to see his friend Trey, a fox. This guy was a freshman, though Tails was a senior (skipped grades) so he seemed more friendly than some of his classmates.
"What's going on?" Tails asked.
"King Acorn is going to give a speech!"
"How come?"
"He's going to tell what he'll do because the Station Square president died."
"Oh, right. Then why are you here?"
"To skip class and scope out the king's daughter."
"She's here too?"
"When does he start?"
"Pretty soon, I think."
"Hey Miles!" Tails heard. He saw the source. The beautiful Rouge the Bat was standing at the base of the steps in her GUN uniform of black pants, black halter top, and silver "G" jacket with her black wings emerging from the slits in the back. "You were on your way to school?"
"Wow, who's the hottie? She knows you?" Trey asked.
"She's my friend, Rouge," Tails said as he waved and continued down the stone steps. "Don't call her that, she'll kick your ass."
"Hey Rouge, why are you here?" Tails asked. Trey stood in awe.
"Secruity reasons," Rouge replied. "Keepin' the peace by smacking anyone who gets too rowdy. Ironic, isn't it? But it works."
"Is it okay if we stay to see?" Tails said.
"Sure go ahead, I won't get ya in trouble," Rouge replied.
"H-hi..m-my name's Tra-Tra," Trey stammered to get some words out of his mouth.
"Trey, wake up," Tails said as he punched him in the arm. The blue fox snapped out of it.
"Is he your friend?" Rouge asked. "Get him some coffe or something, he doesn't look that well."
"Oh no, he's always like this," Tails said as he pushed Trey ahead of him. "I'll see you later."
"See ya," she replied.
Meanwhile.................
"This is your place? Its kinda....cozy," Sonic said, trying not to be offenseive. He stood in the entrance hall. He looked around and spotted some paintings on the wall.
"I know it's small, but I'm barely home thanks to my job. Didn't I already tell you that?" Amy replied. "Where do you want to go to today?" she asked.
"Can we check on Tails first?"
"Why? I mean, don't you think he's gotten old enough to take care of himself?"
Must find an excuse! "I left something at his place."
"Oh, alright. But wait, isn't he at school?"
The world's not in a crisis, of course he'd be in school. "Oh..um...," Just as he started to talk, the most bizzare thing had just grabbed onto his leg.
"Hiiiiii Sonnikkuuu!!" it blurted. Sonic looked down to see a soft, dewdrop-shaped thing clinging to his right leg. It had little wings on its back and the whole animal was tinted pink.
"Oh my god, get it off me!" Sonic yelled. Amy ran over and picked the thing up.
"Don't have a heart attack, it's just Cutie," Amy said while snuggling the thing. It took on a smile on its face and a heart appeared over its head. Amy put it down. Sonic saw another one of those monsters walk into the room. Execept, it looked like him.
"Is that a cutie too?" Sonic said, pointing at it. Amy looked at him strangely.
"Uh, yeah he's cute. That's Speedy, you dropped him off after he threw fruit around in your condo." she walked up to him and put her hand to Sonic's forehead. "Honey, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm okay," Oh no, she's getting suspicious, and I wasn't supposed to bring her! "Why do you ask?"
"You were eating chilidogs when I found you, you refused a chance to run, and now you freak out when a chao grabbed your leg," Amy said. "Anyway I gotta feed them," She walked out of the room. Sonic mustered up some courage to crouch down to the blue one.
"So...you're a 'chow' aren't you? Creepy and cute at the same time," Sonic said.
"So...you're a 'furmorph' aren't you? Smelly and hairy at the same time...." Speedy replied.
"Okay, you guys, I got your favorites!" Amy said, paperbag in hand. Both of the little things scampered over and Amy handed out some of the stangest fruit Sonic had ever seen. Amy handed Speedy a giant cherry. Then handed a giant peach to cutie. Speedy started to complain.
"I don't wannit! I want pie! Pie! Pie!" it yelled.
"That's not healthy for a chao, you need to eat fruit too," she said.
"I. Don't. WANNIT!" the chao said as it tossed the fruit at Amy, splattering all over her. Her fur and clothes were all red with cherry juice.
"Ohhhh!!! And I just bought this too!" Amy said. "I hope this doesn't mess with my fur dye, those color jobs aren't cheap." The two chao ran from the room.
"Are you okay?" Sonic asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Amy said. "Now I gotta shower before I get all sticky,"
"Okay, i'll wait," Sonic replied. Please hurry, we have to find the others!
"Hmm....unless you wanna join me?" Amy asked with a slightly lower tone. "Play a little hanky-panky?"
"N-no that's okay," Sonic said, avoiding her wish. "I don't do that."
"Oh really? Such a liar," Amy replied. "You must be really sick."
"Why's that?" Sonic said. Good God, this 'other me' must be one hell of a guy.
"You don't remember? Dropping off Speedy wasn't all you did....." she took a peice of cherry skin from its resting place on her head. "You were sooo naughty, had your hands all over me."
"I uh..," Excuse! Excuse! "..think I might be coming down with something. I don't want to pass it to you."
"Fine, be that way!" Amy said in a huff and headed out of the room.
"Whoo, that was close!" Sonic said to himself.
Over the ocean.....................
"Concentrate harder!" Mel yelled to a floating black figure near the horizon. "Controll it, don't let it controll you!" he floated above the water, his metallic feet dipping in and out of the water. He brushed back the long dreadlocks that emerged from the back of his chrome-colored head.
"CHA-OS CONTROLLLLL!!!!!" the figure yelled. It turned into a red streak that headed toward Melfice. Melfice did the same, and they rushed eachother. Mel passed by and tossed Shadow another chaos drive. Shadow snatched it in mid-air. The aura of red energy grew wider around him.
"You got it!" Mel yelled. "Do it now!"
"PLANET DIVERRRR!!!' Shadow yelled. A red explosion shaped like a shpere grew the blue ocean. The water caved down around him.
"Uhh..rrrrrghhh..." Shadow's body was shocked with pain. A pounding pressure ran from the heel of his foot and the top of his skull. This proved to be too much for Shadow's capability and fell inside. He was caught by Mel and was flown above the water before the temporary crater caved in. The water rushed to fill the empty gap and sprayed the two with the salty brine.
"You okay?" Mel asked.
"Yeah, yeah," Shadow said. "It's hard to do, and I still haven't mastered flying yet."
"It takes time," Mel assured him. "Me and Jin had been training for over thrity years."
"That means that I have a lot of catching up to do," Shadow said.
Station Square, Station Square, Central Station.....(bet ya can't..er..never mind)...
The king walked up to the podium that rested near the edge of the wooden stage set up in the main plaza. The Station Square Hotel's doors were directly behind him. The audience stretched all the way back to the encrance of Twinkle Park. All eyes were on him.
This man single-handedly brought peace to the humans and furmorphs by stopping the Great War. And had averted the Coup d 'eat Robotnik had staged right after the war. He had planned early, because of the surplus of weapons and military vehicles being surged into Metropolis, GUN's capital, and had put an investigation into it before the victory parade started. As it truned out, Robotnik was found out about the unessesary arms smuggle and had been exiled to the east ever since.
"My people of GUN..." Max started. He extened his arms from his red cape that surrounded his body and gripped the podium. The red cape revealed his attire, which was a suit of composite armor to protect against assailants of the like. It's not known of king Maxwell Acorn having enimies, but protection was needed just in case. Near the rear of the stage, sat a young and beautiful redhead female chipmunk on a folding chair. "...I join you today on a sad note. As we all know, our President of the Staion Square Nation of GUN has passed away. For now, I will take his place untill we elect our new Station Square president. I will act as king and president for Station Square....."
"Hmph, full of hot air," Fang said to himself. "I'm not a man of politics, but I know when someone's just givin' lipservice to his GUN council." He stood in the midst of the crowd.
"Relax, you're not here to listen to the speech anyway," Ivan said over the radio tucked in the weasel's ear.
"I know, I know," Fang said as he brushed his hair out of his eyes. "The targets are?"
"The assailant is probably a Leather Jacket," Ivan replied.
"Rai-On's cronies?"
"No, Smithy's," Ivan said. "I have intercepted a communicae' for an assasination."
"Really? King Max?"
"No, Sally Acorn,"
"Hmm, interesting. Probably to make Max step down, make him soft to negotiate," Fang said.
"Exactly."
"Then how will we find the to-be murderer?" Fang asked in a low voice to makes sure no one else heard him.
"That's the problem."
"And that's why GUN has asked for my services once again. They don't know a thing anymore." Fang paused. "Then how the hell will we find him then?"
"Your cunning and clairvoyance," Ivan replied.
"Great, I have to guess."
Elsewhere in the mass of people......
"Man, where's the party at?" Sonic said to himself as he entered Station Square Cental Square. He was nearly bored to death. "First, Amy never returned any of my phonecalls. Second, she wasn't even home this morning. And even worse, I can't even get back to my house!" He looked at the stage. "Great, another speech from Max Acorn. Maybe someone I know is here."
"Hey, it's Sonic the Hedgehog!" "Can I have your autograph?" "It's Sonic!" Sonic's ears heard as he wiggled into the massive crowd. He just answered them with passive waving. He spotted someone. Tails standing next to a goofily colored blue fox.
"Hey Tails, why aren't you at school?" he asked. His voice was almost drowned out completely by the king's speech over the speakers.
"I stayed to see the speech," Tails replied.
Walking out of the entrance of Central Station.............
Rouge spotted them. "Hey Sonic! Hey Amy!" Sonic didn't have a clue who that was, but Amy sure did.
"'Morning Rouge?" Amy replied. "Oh, you weren't off today?"
"Nope, was on call all last night," she replied. "I see that you two are trying to head to winkle park."
"Well, no. Actually we were trying to find Rotor, Bunnie, and the rest of our friends," Sonic said.
"What in the world are you talking about, Sonic?" Amy stated. "Who's Rotor? And more importantly, WHO's Bunnie?!"
It again dawned on Sonic. "Oh, umm..just some people that I....owe money to." 'Damn, all I have found was just some no-body's, not the people I'm looking for. I can't pull these people into this, I gotta find Sonic without making a mess.' Sonic thought.
"Sonic owing money?" Rouge said. "Never heard of that before."
"Yeah, it's strange, I know," Sonic said. "Hey, what's going on out here?" Sonic pointed out to the stage.
"King Maxwell Acorn is giving a speech," Rouge said.
"Oh, I head about this in the news this morning," Amy said.
"King Acorn? Is Princess Sally here too?" Sonic asked the two. Rouge nodded. "Alright, I have to talk with her."
"Why is that?" Amy asked.
"Something happened, and I have to round up a few people."
"The princess? What could she be involved in?" Rouge said. Just at that moment the female redhead chipmunk walked up to the podium to speak.
"I will also acompany my father during his stay here. I wish to interact with all of the citzens of Station Square......" she started.
"Wait, that's not her," Sonic said.
"What are you talking about? There's only one Sally Acorn." Amy said.
Meanwhile...........
"Ivan, I think we found our man," Fang said while focusing his target sight at one member of the audience. A man wearing a loose gray jacket and camo pants. "This guy's plannin' a party. He's got an uzi, a plasma gun and a large knife."
"A typical anti-furmorph human," Ivan replied. "Smithy's got nothin' but those freaks."
"Uh-oh, he making his move now," Fang said as he began clear his way to the assasin. It was easier to move around because he had shed his black trenchcoat earlier. The man began walking faster and faster to the stage, eyes locked on the princess. Fang caught up and extended a gun to the back of the assasin's head.
"Heh. Don't move buddy. I wouldn't want you to splatter your brains all over some of these people," Fang said. People surrounding them went into a panic and spread away from the two. Everyone seemed to be caught up and confused, sending the entire square into chaos.
"Ha, so you found me out," the brown-haired man said. In a swift motion, the man shifted away and turned to Fang. Fang was caught in surprise as he was socked in the face by the man. He countered with a blow of his own.
Soon, the crowd was being cleaved apart as someone made their way through. Across, someone else was doing the same. The both had the same target in mind. Fang proved to be a more worthy fighter than the asssasin and delivered a punch to the man's head that knocked him out cold. Just as he did, though, two blue blurrs stopped over the man's body. Fang was thrown into surprise.
"I was too slow! I should have stopped the killer myself!" Sonic said. He looked at the person in front of him. "What!? You're...me!!!"
"Finally, I found me!!" the other Sonic said. "I need your help," he said as he extened his hand for a handshake. Sonic shook his hand. "I am Sonic the Hedgehog, savior of Mobius."
