Prologue: War for the Island

Gunshots echoed through the thick forest of fir trees, causing birds to chirp in fright before fluttering away for safety behind the town's wall, trying to avoid the possibility of being killed in war as the battle between the native islanders and the humans continued. Yells were heard over the firing of bullets, the commanding officers issuing an order to the surrounding troops to cease fire. Some of the natives peeked up across the barrier, wondering why everything was shrouded and a deadly silence, something not to be expected during a war, especially for one that had lasted for nearly three years. Their wondering was answered as the bright red sticks of dynamite were thrown by the humans over the handmade barricade that surrounded the village. Yelling in fright, the mobians scurried away from the wall, trying to avoid being blown up as the fire quickly ate away at the fuse before coming in intact with the gun powder that was held within the destructive weapon. A small fiery explosion erupted out of the dynamite sticks, creating a large, tank-size hole in the wall. Finally able to breech the seemingly impenetrable wall, the humans swarmed in, destroying huts and shooting down the terrified citizens as they desperately tried to run for safety. It seemed the humans had won, a successful smirk on each of their faces, knowing they were able to make sure their comrades deaths weren't in vain.

"Chaos Spear!" a voice shouted, booming across the village that made both native and invaders froze on the spot, one was forming a new sense of confidence while the others went pale in the face, some were even shaking as they darted their eyes around the area. Several seconds later, a large green energy shaped into a spear was hurled from the treetops, bouncing off the trunks several times before imbedding itself in the throat of a human soldier. A soft thud resided throughout the now quiet village as his body went limped as he fell to the ground, a look of pure shock etched into the face forever. The surrounding men looked at their falling comrade in horror before looking up toward the treetop to find the one who committed the action, but a surprise look was seen on each of their faces as they saw that nobody was there. Worried eyes fidgeted in their sockets as there owners searched around the area, too afraid to move away from the others or else become another victim.

"C-come out, y-you c-coward." The soldier that had stood next to the fallen man shouted, his whole body visibly shaking, even the combat rifle that was held tightly in his hands were bobbing up and down roughly, glistening slightly from the guys sweaty palms.

"Looking for me?" the same voice asked, a mocking tone slightly heard in it. The troops whipped around, guns ready and pointing in the direction the voice originated from, as they faced a dark blue antromorphic hedgehog. The light brown open vest and blue jeans it wore were ragged and covered with grime, a sign of heavy fighting throughout the war. Dark brown eyes hardening as they scanned each of the five soldiers standing before it.

"Surrender now and we can stop all this unnecessary suffering and loses." one of the soldiers said, seeming to have regained his confidence. The hedgehog replied with an agitated sigh, eyes closing as it did so.

"I have been trying to avoid this fight the day your kind attacked Babylon Garden. I tried to bring peace between us, that we would give you some chaos energy if you were to avoid this island entirely, but did your commander listen, no. It is his fought that so many lives have lost theses past years, not ours. We are only defending out homes, so unless you want to join them, I suggest leaving." he said, his eyes snapping open, as he got into a fighting position, a chaos spear formed in both hands. The tension in the air became even more hostile, as time slowly ticked away, the area once again enveloped in a deadly silence, that is, before the soldiers made the first move. Fingers pushing against the trigger, the machine guns and combat rifles rapidly fired fifty bullets per second, which were no match for the hedgehog as it dodged each bullet with ease, making it seem like they were traveling at a pace similar to a snail. The hedgehog smirk, caching a glimpse of the soldiers' shocked expression, before throwing both spears in an x motion making them impale into the chest of two men in the chest, causing them to fall backed, unmoving. More humans filed into the area, anger and revenge filled their minds as they saw their fallen comrades' corpses. Behind the hedgehog were two more, one with turquoise fur and another with dark blue fur. The duo were fleeing from the scene, well, it was actually one fleeing from the scene, dragging the little hedgehog with it.

"Come now, Ogilvie, we need to let your father handle the situation." The turquoise hedgehog said as it continued to pull the smaller one.

"But, mom, I can handle them easily, no sweat. Just give me a chance." The dark blue hedgehog replied, yanking at his mother's hand in an attempt to get in the fight, but the older hedgehog grip was firmly tight around his wrist. The mother sighed as she squatted down to face eye-to-eye with her son.

"I know you can," she said with a slight chuckle, "but right now is not the time. I have a feeling you'll be facing them again, so right now would you listen to me and your father pleas and head to South Island. I believe your uncle is staying there, maybe your adopted brother too." The hedgehog pouted, crossing his arms and giving an angry death glare at the hedgehog.

"Fine, but what about you."

"I'll be helping out your father along with the other villagers."

"No fair, you all get all the action and I'm stuck in the background."

"But think about, you'll be able to explore the world some before you return."

"Alright." The young hedgehog disappeared, a blue light and a gust of wind trailing behind him throughout the forest. The mother smiled before facing her husband.

"He's heading off the island." She shouted. The blue hedgehog leaped back toward her, confusing the soldiers.

"Everyone has come to an agreement." The turquoise hedgehog nodded.

"It is for the best." A red glow began to emit off the blue hedgehog as he made his way back to the soldiers. Each one was shaking more than before, clearly confused and scared at what might happen next.

"CHAOS BLAST!"

A red energy engulfed the hedgehog, lightning appearing on its surface, before expanding out toward the soldiers. The men screamed in fright, attempting to escape, but was enshrouded by the dome, their bodies vanishing. The dome continued to expand until it engulfed the whole island, the blue hedgehog already halfway toward South Island. AS the dome disappeared, the only things that were still there were the trees, caves, and one human, a large scratch going across one of his eyes, having held the blue hedgehogs to close for comfort. Anger shone deeply in those eyes, all directed at the villagers that had refused to submit. He walked toward the exit of the destroyed village, his whole body stinging, which told him that he was still alive. A sudden breeze drafted through the area, causing an untouched picture to float and land right in front of the human. He bent down and studied the picture, eyebrows furrowing.

"You can run, but you cannot hide," he allowed the picture the blow out of his hand as he lifted himself up, "for I will find you one day, Sonic Hedgehog."

Me: Yes, I am redoing The Mysterious Island. I find it needs improving after improving on my writing skills, so do a few others. What will be changed, well, you just need to read and find out.

Review; the more I have the quicker this story is updated.
