Chapter 1: Pure Chaos
Sonic was a normal 15-year old boy. He had blue jeans and a red, short-sleeved top. His eyes were an emerald green and his hair was blue and spiked. He walked alongside his brother, Miles, who was wearing orange baggy pants and a white T-shirt, his friends, Shadow, who had black spiky hair with red on the tops of the spikes and wore black jeans and a black hoodie with a white fur outline on the hood and down the zipper, Amy, who had pink hair and wore a red dress with a white outline on the bottom of it and red boots with a white streak going down it. Lastly, Knuckles, who had red hair and wore a red shirt with baggy jeans and green and yellow runners.
School was finally out and the group were heading to their separate homes. Although Miles is Sonic's brother, they both live with separate parents. Thankfully, they weren't that far apart. Sonic walked into his home and dropped his bag into his room, before proceeding to go into the backyard to mess around with his dog. When he walked out into his backyard, he realized something. Normally, his mother was at the door to greet him when he came home from school His dog wasn't in the backyard either. Instead, he saw a green, emerald-cut glowing gem on his back porch.
"What's this…?" Sonic looked at it curiously. It was like something was drawing him to it. He reached a hand out to pick it up. When he did however, it started to glow even more until the light engulfed Sonic for a few seconds. He felt strange, so he placed the gem down on the table next to him.
"What was that all about?" He asked himself. Suddenly, he hunched over in pain. Something was happening to him! His skin itched as blue fur made its way out of it, covering his whole body except for his arms, chest and some of his face.
"What the heck?" He screamed as his spine stretched, creating a short blue tail. Two large hedgehog spines burst through his upper back, only increasing the excruciating pain. His hair stretched back into six quills which solidified into flesh and bone. His nose shrunk and extended, becoming like a hedgehog's nose. Sonic's head became slightly larger to fit these attributes. His eyes squeezed shut and he bit his lip, making the screams unable to come out as the final phase of his transformation begun and finished.
When the pain vanished, Sonic opened his eyes and looked at himself. He had blue fur covering most of his body but was bare on his chest and some of his abdomen, his arms and his face. Six spines came out of the back of his head. His ears were now near the top of his head, except they were pointed and triangular. Two quills and a tail came out of his back. He still had his t-shirt and jeans on but in addition wore white gloves and red shoes with a white strap and a gold buckle.
So…I'm an anthropomorphic hedgehog that can walk and talk? Things just keep getting weirder and weirder, he thought. Sonic picked up the gem and hid it in his quills before going inside.
What was odd is everyone was gone and Sonic felt like he had walked faster than normal. He walked out the front and got into a running position, then unexpectedly took off at incredibly high speeds. It was like he was running at the speed of sound. Everything he ran past was a blur. A grin stretched on his face. This was unlike anything he'd ever seen or dreamed of! He did a loop around the city before running straight ahead. Little did he know he was en route to his brother, Miles' house. He ran down streets at high speeds without getting the slightest bit tired. He immediately recognized the house up ahead of him. His grin vanished as he screeched to a halt in front of his brother's house.
Suddenly, the door swung open. Sonic quickly jumped into the bushes to avoid being seen. Miles came out of the house and walked towards the mailbox. He must have been getting the mail for his Dad. Sonic's ear flicked behind him. He turned around and faintly saw orange robots coming up fast. Their feet clanked loudly as they ran. There was almost a whole army of them and they looked hostile. Sonic panicked slightly. Were they here for the two brothers?
Before Sonic knew it, the robots were dangerously close. As Miles turned around to go back into the house, two robots ran up and attempted to grab him. Sonic rushed and curled into a ball, spinning rapidly. He left his place and spun right through the robots, destroying him with the momentum and his razor sharp quills. Sonic then uncurled and took a battle stance as the robots were coming. Miles was frozen in fear, staring at the robots.
"DARN YOU!" Sonic yelled at the robots. They seemed like they wanted a challenge. As they charged to attack, Sonic did the move he just did, which he decided to call "Spin Dash," taking out ten robots. Sonic smirked as the other ninety came closer. He ran at high speeds and circled the huddled group of robots, creating a strong blue Tornado which dragged all of the robots into the air, some blowing up. Sonic jumped up high into the air and spin dashed at least fifty of them, while the rest landed on the ground and exploded. Sonic landed in front of Miles and watched the robots explode.
