Chapter 1: Fallen Loyalties lie.
There was nothing more left, the salvation of her people had vanished. Her dark orange fur rippled in the slight breeze that had found the crack within her stronghold, "What did I do wrong?" She asked herself, the emptiness of her voice echoing off the cold, heartless and metallic walls she called home. No, this was no home, this was hell...a prison. The light of the perpetual moon cast a silvery glow into the hollow vastness where she lived. Slowly as if not to disrupt the peaceful atmosphere she lifted her hand away from her head and stared at it in disgust, "These hands, are the hands of a beast." she growled, clenching the hand into a fist so tight that her sharp claws cut into her own palm.
"Master..." Came a calm voice from the entrance into the room, a young male hedgehog stood at the this doorway, his wonderful emerald green eyes watching in horror as the crimson blood of his beloved slowly dripped to the floor, "Master, you're bleeding..." he gasped, unable to make sense of the situation. With blinding speed, the hedgehog was soon at the fox's side and began to try and tend to the wound she had inflicted upon herself, "Master, you must be more careful..." He tried to caution her but only a laugh came from her almost still form, "Sonic. I'm no longer fit to be called your master...Please, call me Aika." Aika sighed pulling her injured hand from the blue hedgehog's grasp, "Never! You are my mast-" Sonic began to protest but the kitsune's nine tails began to thrash from their once limp positions, "Who follows a master who allowed her people to be cursed..." Aika asked, more of her blood falling to the ground. Each droplet of blood hitting the ground echoed so loudly into Sonic's ears that with every time one hit the floor he winced, "I do not know of these nightmarish demons that haunt your past Master. Please tell me so..I understand." Sonic gasped as another blood drop hit the floor, Aika watched as he winced and sat herself back upon her broken throne, her tails once again becoming still. She motioned for the hedgehog to sit before her and without a quiver he followed her orders. "I suppose I should begin from the start..." Aika began...and then she looked into Sonic's eyes and smiled, "I was never born into this form..."
"You see, there are many races that lived upon this world we call Mobius. At first there were only the Echidna, the Mobians and the Humans. The Mobians were an animal like race, and I saw them as mindless beasts. A fatal mistake. We began a war with them and a group of seven Mobians...known only as 'Chaos' sealed themselves within the gem all Mobians are born with, and sought after the end of the war by transforming all those who lived on Mobius into a mix-matched creature...That is what we are."
Sonic looked to his master with worry, "'Chaos'? Like the Chaos emeralds?" he asked, allowing his gaze to fall to Aika's injured hand once again, "The very same, to free my people I either need the power of an uncorrupted Emerald or for one of the original seven to shatter. Together they amass limitless energy, apart they are nothing more but stones." She sighed, Sonic stood up and grabbed Aika's good hand, "Fear not master! I will find the eighth emerald and free you from that burden!" He smiled, Aika could not stop the pang in her heart as he sped off on his suicide mission.
"If you do that...you'll vanish. You are just a clone after all..."
