Just to let people know this is my first fanfic. I don't own any Sonic characters; they are copyrighted to Sega and Sonic Team. I do own the character Mac though.

Prologue

Birth of a Hero

New York City

Third Person P.O.V.

It was a beautiful summer night with the moon shining over a small suburb in the great New York City. Outside were a group of kids, two boys, and two girls having a great time watching the moon.

"It's so beautiful." Said a girl. She looked up and watched it wondering if anyone was on there.

The Moon

They say the moon has no life but it's a big world and you may never know what might be on it. In the dark and cold part known as the "Dark-side" of the moon there lies a secret. What lies there is a small workshop but not a normal one, one where evil lies. Inside is a robot workshop where a dark force is building a special robot one with artificial intelligence, unique powers, unique personalities, a brain smarter than Einstein, and the most important piece a heart. They try to make a half human and half robot man who is powerful enough to take out ten armies!

Unfortunately they succeeded but the robot had a flaw. It could see, think, and feel that it is working on the wrong side and destroyed the workshop with its weapons and was soon tranquilized. The dark force ordered his robot minions to put the failed robot man into a pod and sent it to the sun, but the robot man used his special strength to redirect the pod and it headed towards earth.

New York City

Natalie's P.O.V.

I was sitting with my friends Ed, Greg, and Melissa. We have been friends for about a month and yet I still feel like something's missing.

"This city stinks!" Said Ed.

"Why did you say that?" I replied.

"Well it's just so boring here!" We all just stared at him for a second then Greg said. "Why do you think it's boring? It's New York City! Everyone finds it exciting!"

"Well my parents won't let me go anywhere alone! And if you overlook the sights and the shops it's just another city."

He has a point though. Nothing happened in the past few days. We have just been doing the same thing everyday. We play baseball, than we watch TV. Nothing seems to be getting us excited. The Statue of Liberty doesn't seem great once you see it. I looked up and wished for something exciting to happen.

Third Person P.O.V.

As Natalie looked up she saw a bright light heading towards her and coming really fast.

"Look out!" She yelled and pushed everyone out of the way. The "meteor" didn't hit the kids but crashed close to them and created a small crater. Ed and Melissa were the first ones to look.

"What is it?" Asked Melissa. Greg slid down and inspected the "meteor." The rubble on it slid off and revealed the pod that came from the moon. Natalie came even closer and looked in the glass window of the pod. Two yellow eyes opened in the pod and broke the door and letting out a giant streak of light and in the light appeared a strange being.

"Oh no!" Said Ed scared. "The aliens have come to destroy us!"

"Shut up I'm sure it's something else." Said Natalie.

"I mean you no harm." Said the unknown being. Then the light faded away reveling a boy about thirteen years old and he's wearing a blue helmet with a robotic blue armor and is smiling at the four.

Mac's P.O.V.

I stood there looking at the four kids in front of me. Okay Mac your first contact with humans no pressure just be yourself.

"Hi, I'm Mac nice to meet you but my original name was Unit MX1. But it was an unnatural name so I change it. So what are your names?" I said in a formal way. They just stood there staring and one said.

"Please don't eat me mighty overlord!"

"Ignore Ed he has some problems. Hi I'm Natalie, nice to meet you too Mac." Said a girl in a kind sincere voice. "This is Ed, Melissa, and Greg. So where you're from?

I just pointed towards the moon.

"I'm a robotic android programmed to be evil but turned on the evil guys and landed here on earth. So now I'm a good guy and I have the abilities of a very advanced robot and a normal human."

"Human?" Said Melissa.

"Yeah, I eat, have guts and stuff, breath, talk, feel, and when I drink it goes through me and down to my…"

"Okay too much information!" Interrupted Natalie. "But your really from the moon?" I just smiled and nodded. "Prove it!" She said.

Then all of a sudden a robot fell from the same pod from the moon and when it opened first came out long robotic spider like legs. On top of it was a mechanical block which started to grow. First came out a pair of robotic arms with rockets on one arm and lasers on the other. Then came a large cylinder body with two rockets on the back and front. Finally a large head with an antenna on top, sharp shark like teeth, and one glowing robotic red eye.

I looked up and then looked at Natalie and said. "That good enough for ya?"

"I am the Destructor, primary function terminate unit MX1." Said the giant robot.

I used my rocket boosters on the bottom of my shoes to fly up to his face.

"Bring it on you tin can!" I said valiantly. The first thing I did was elude the rockets by flying above him them under the legs and in circles. The rockets flew every where and one was heading towards a house. I flew at full speed to get to the front and stopped it and threw it towards the Destructor. It slapped the rocket causing it to explode. Next it used its laser on me but I flew around its legs and it blew one of its legs off. Then it extended its neck and tries to snap me with its teeth.

"Man I had enough!" I yelled and let myself get eaten. But I grabbed out one of my time bombs and set it to thirty seconds and put it in the its chest area and busted out of its stomach area, then punched it hard in its cheek, and finally cut off its antenna. I grabbed everyone and flew faraway and the robot exploded. I dropped off three of the kids in random places. What a weird coincidence that they landed at the right houses except Natalie.

"You missed my house." Said Natalie.

"Trust me." I flew all the way to Liberty Island and landed both of us there.

"Why did you send me here?" She said. "Look." I replied and pointed towards the moon. "Wow it looks beautiful from here." Said Natalie. I held her hand and we sat looking towards the moon. I whispered the word "Hero."
