Hello, everyone. This a story I'm working on with an AU with a friend. Please no flames and enjoy.
Disclaimer: I own none of the characters, just the idea of the alterations.
A shadow sat directly under the window of someone's house. "Remember, do what's necessary to make him come." Her director had told her. The person took a deep breath before knocking on the door.
"Heh?" Sonic hummed to the knocking, his ears perked up. He stood up, walking over to the door. He shakily took hold of the handle, twisting it open. "H-hello..?" He timidly answered, peeking outside.
"Are you Sonic the hedgehog?" A thin pink hedgehog about his size stood at the door, dressed in all black. Her blank, almost tired gaze rested on him.
"U-umm... Y-yea ma'am... May I-I help you?" He shied away from her gaze.
"Yes. I am from the corporation of H.T.C. My name is Amy Rose." Amy flipped out a badge and showed it to Sonic. "You are to come with me as soon as possible," She said, flipping it back and shoving it in her pocket.
"Heh..? T-this is really not a good time miss, I have something in the oven an-…" Sonic realized his fake excuse was not working and he turned away.
Amy's cold stare didn't relinquish. "It is vital you come immediately."
"B-but I-I..." He shakily started to close the door. He closed it, quickly locking it and zipping upstairs.
Amy raced around the house and opened the window, climbing into his room.
She grabbed his arm, locking her grip, and said. "I'm sorry, but you don't really have a choice in this. Come with me without resistance and I won't do anything to you."
Sonic yelled, screaming for an act of mercy, "I'm sorry! Please let me go!" He started hyperventilating in fear. Tears started to stream down his eyes.
"Stop it," The girl ordered, pulling him up. "This is not a joke! The world is at stake and you may be the only one who can save us."
"I'm just an ordinary hedgehog! Less than that even!" He cried, "j-just please! Let me go!"
"I can't do that, Sonic." Amy frowned. "All information will be revealed at the base. I don't want to have to do anything drastic, sir."
"Please just let me go!" His ears pinned back, his eyes closed, "I just have to wake up, and this is all a dream!"
Amy sighed and opened the window wider, then pulled out a Taser and promptly shot it at Sonic, seeing he wouldn't go willfully. He yelped, quickly dodging it. He then zipped downstairs to hide. Amy grimaced, then followed him downstairs silently, not wanting him to know where she was coming from.
Sonic was silently crying from shock, he heard the quiet footsteps, but couldn't pinpoint where they were. Amy reappeared behind Sonic and grabbed his arms, dead legging him so he couldn't run.
"Hold still, you little runt," She growled. "I don't want to hurt you."
Sonic yelled, his quills flaring up in fear. Amy leaned back but kept a grip on Sonic's arms.
She held up her wrist to her mouth and pressed the communication device. "I'm going to need backup with this one."
A voice sighed on the other side, "We thought so. Agent Prower is on his way."
Amy struggled to keep a grip on Sonic. "Hold still! You're just making this worse!"
"Just let me go! What did I do! S-stop!" He cried, sparks of pure energy crackling over his blue fur as he struggled.
Amy's eyes widened. "Miles! Hurry up!"
A two-tailed fox entered the room. "Hold on," He said, running over and whipping out a device. He scanned Sonic with it and looked at the screen. "That's pure energy, all right," He muttered.
"Miles!" Amy yelled. "Help me with him!"
Miles's device when crazy as the energy started absorbing back into the blue hedgehog, about to create a huge shockwave. His eyes widened. He quickly threw the device down and smashed it underfoot.
"Sonic. Hold still," He said, walking in front of him. "We're not going to hurt you." He raised an eyebrow at Amy. "Despite what Miss Rose here emphasized."
"He wasn't going," Amy huffed.
Sonic only kept struggling, "p-please I did nothing w-wrong!" The energy, powered by his fear, created a small force field around him, about to burst.
"Amy, let go of him." Miles frowned. Amy sighed and reluctantly let go. "We came to talk to him, not to force him into combat."
The force field disappeared and Sonic shied away, shaking like a leaf.
"Calm down," Miles said. "I'm sorry Amy scared you like that. We were supposed to talk." He offered a hand to help Sonic up. When he didn't respond he huffed softly, "Great job," Miles growled to Amy.
"What was I supposed to do? Let him run off?" Amy huffed.
Sonic crawled back and pressed his back against a wall, "G-get out if my house... Please..."
Miles sighed. "Look, Sonic, you have some extremely powerful energy that you don't know how to control. It could be potentially very dangerous. You could hurt someone without meaning to."
Sonic's eyes widened, "W-what..? N-no..." his ears pinned back. "You're lying!" he yelped.
"You need to listen to us." Miles frowned. "Just come with us. We'll explain it all once you get there."
N-no!" He zipped upstairs, "please leave me alone!" He yelled.
"Ugh!" Amy grunted in frustration. "See what I mean!"
Miles frowned, the scar along his eye almost glowing in the light.
Amy put her hands on her hips. "This is why we need to take him by force."
"Ugh." Miles face palmed. "What are we gonna tell the commander?" His ears twitched to footsteps at the top of the staircase and saw sonic at the top.
Sonic stared at them from the top of the stair well, a phone in his hands, "I'm calling the cops..!"
Amy barely paid heed. "We're higher than the police, Sonic. We have permission to do this."
"To break into my house!?" Sonic screeched, then glared at Amy, "You're paying for a new door!"
"You let me in," Amy smiled smugly.
"I did not!" Sonic growled, unknowingly throwing a energy attack at them. It exploded into a small crater in the floor.
Amy yelped, leaping to one side.
Miles frowned. "You see what I was talking about?" His face then softened, "You really need to come with us," He pleaded
"Go away!" The shockwave finally let loose, "w-what did you do to my house!?" He yelled. All his rage suddenly faded and turned to sorrow. Falling to his knees, he started to cry. He had grew up in that house since a baby. He had grown shut off from the world when his mother was murdered.
Amy and Miles were knocked over by the shock wave. Amy grit her teeth. "Come on, Miles. He is not worth this much trouble. Let's just go." She stood.
Miles looked over his shoulder at the weak form huddled on the top of the stairway. He hesitated before climbing up and standing in front of Sonic. Miles placed a hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry," he murmured, before standing back up and following Amy outside.
"W-wait you can't just leave me here? C-can you..?" Sonic frowned and looked up at them, "You've already destroyed my home..."
"You did that Sonic," Miles said, turning at the doorway. "You sent out a shock wave using energy you created. I'd be careful with that if I were you."
"...y-you're just leaving me here?" He cried, "I hate you heartless people!"
"So are you coming with us or not?" Amy yelled. She rolled her eyes and stalked out.
Miles shut the door behind them. He stopped. "Do you smell something?"
Amy sniffed the air. "Is that smoke?"
Tails frowned. "Is someone having a bonfire or something?" When they looked back, the entire house was on blue fire.
"Uh...! We need the fire department for this one," Amy yelped. Miles had already dialed 911.
The fire department quickly came and tried to put out the fire, "water is not working!"
"Hold on." Miles took out the device again and scanned the house. "That's chaos energy! Oh, boy. Now we really need Sonic!"
"I'm over here." The almost silent voice called. Sonic sadly watched his old home burn.
"Eh?" Amy looked around, her ears pricked. "Where?"
"Up here." He was in a tree, sorrow over his face.
Miles looked up the tree.
Amy scowled, folding her arms. "Now do you believe us?"
"Let it burn. I don't care." Sonic pulled his knees up to his chest.
"You don't care about your house?" Amy asked, frowning.
"Why should I? I'm just a hazard to everyone else anyways." The poor hedgehog was crying.
Amy sighed, face palming.
Miles took a deep breath and flew up next to Sonic. "Sonic...look at me."
Sonic hid his head in his arms, "No! You hate me!"
"We don't hate you. We want to help you," Miles tried to explain.
"You're forcing me!" Sonic yelped.
"I gave you a chance to come with me," Amy argued. "You wouldn't go of your own will!"
"I don't know who you are!" Sonic crackled with negative energy, his rage coming back up.
"Sonic, please," Miles asked. "At least give us a chance. We really need you. Look, we'll help you rebuild your house if you come with us, all right?"
Sonic sighed and hopped down, "alright…"
"Good," Miles breathed. "He's coming," He told Amy, calling down to her. "You can get the car."
Sonic whimpered, his ears pinned back, "Y-you're not going to test me, are you?"
"No," Miles shook his head. "We're not going to test you. Some might scan you to see the limits of what you can do, but there aren't any needles or anything like that. It's completely digital."
"...Ok..." Sonic looked truly terrified.
Miles almost laughed but hid his smile well. "Don't worry. It's not going to hurt a bit." Someone honked and Miles looked over to see Amy waving out of the window.
Once they got there, Amy parked the car. "We're lucky-Knuckles is out today."
"Good. He always takes this spot," Miles laughed.
"Heh?" Sonic was hidden in a pile of blankets he had salvaged. It seemed the fire only burned the exterior of his house, not the objects inside.
"Knuckles. He's another agent who's a little bit... off the top shall we say?" Miles shrugged. "Come on, we need to go. The commander is waiting for us."
"O-ok..." Sonic grabbed a soft blue blanket, following behind them.
Amy placed a hand on a scanning device, then leaned forward and spoke into a speaker. "Amy Rose and Miles Prower. We have the package." The door in front of them slid open.
"Package? I'm not an object!" Sonic growled.
Amy glanced over her shoulder. "Relax. Its code talk." she muttered as she entered the building.
"I'm not an object…" Sonic grumbled.
"Yeah, well, get used to it," Amy replied coldly, annoyed. Miles rolled his eyes.
"Can we see the commander?" "Wait over there," The secretary said in a dark voice, looking up from behind her book.
The nametag on her shirt read 'Cream', although she looked anything but. The rabbit's ears and eyes were dyed black, and the only thing she wore colorized was black and grey.
"You heard her. Come on." Amy lead the way to a row of seats, similar to a waiting room at the dentist's/doctor's office or something.
Sonic nodded and sat himself down. He looked around the room curiously, his eyes scanning around for anything, really. He hummed and kicked his legs innocently.
After a few minutes, Cream looked over. "The commander will see you now."
Amy and Miles stood immediately. Amy went to the elevator and selected which floor to go to while Miles waited for Sonic.
Sonic quickly zipped behind them, "I-is he nice?"
"Stay quiet and cooperate, and you'll be fine," Miles answered, entering the elevator. The doors closed behind them as they started to ascend.
Miles looked at Sonic before looking back to the front, all emotion that was in his eyes before now erased.
The doors opened, and Amy walked out first. "Commander?"
A huge leather chair's back was to them. "Agent Rose and Agent Prower. I assume you retrieved the package?"
"Yes sir," Miles and Amy answered simultaneously.
"Good job." The chair swiveled around, revealing a white hedgehog with bangs nearly covering his face. "I expected he would come. Sonic, step forward."
Amy and Miles parted and Sonic squeaked, looking around and looked at him sacredly, "Oh no…"
