Sonic Extended Generations
Chapter One: Back in Time
Twenty years ago... a small blue hedgehog known as Sonic was running through an area known as Green Hill, when all of a sudden, he stopped when he heard a strange sound. After looking around, Sonic merely shrugged it off and continued running. Little did he know that a void in time and space had appeared in the sky above Green Hill... just then, a black monster with a blue mouth and blue eyes emerged from the void and roared, causing the hedgehog to stop and look up in shock as everything faded to white...
Fast-forward twenty years into the present day, where a handful of Sonic's friends had gathered at a picnic table in a park, and a two-tailed fox was running towards them...
"*pant pant* He'll be here *pant* any second!" Said the fox as they all turned their backs to a certain blue hedgehog who was quickly approaching them...
"Hey guys, what's going on?" He asked as he started walking towards the group, who all had their backs turned to him. "You havin' a party or something?"
"Surprise!" They all shouted as they turned around to present themselves and a cake with Sonic's face on it to him.
"Aww, you guys..." Was all Sonic could say as two of his smaller friends shot streamers across the table. As the party began, everyone starting talking and eating. The pink hedgehog quickly got her hands on Sonic, and he didn't like that... however that pink hedgehog wasn't the only one who was flirting, because a certain seductive bat was trying to get the attention of a red echidna. A crocodile was having a hot dog eating contest with a slow-eating big, purple cat, while a bee and a raccoon were cheering them on, and a purple chameleon was placing his palm over his face watching them... rather than watch the pig-out, a female purple cat was spending some quality time with a small rabbit and her Chao friend.
"It's kind of impossible to surprise you." The fox pointed out to the blue hedgehog, who was holding the pink hedgehog back with just one hand on her face.
"Well, you guys totally got me this time, Tails." Sonic replied. "I had no idea!"
"Yeah, right." Said Tails as he picked up a plate from the table. "Happy Birthday, Sonic. Hope you like this." Tails then handed Sonic the plate which had a chilli dog with a bow wrapped around it. Sonic immediately swiped the chilli dog from the plate and took a bite of it.
"Like it? I LOVE it!" As the party continued, a strange void in time and space suddenly appeared, blowing all of the food off the table, aswell as Sonic's chilli dog up into the sky.
"Sonic, what's that?" Asked Tails, getting Sonic's attention, before a large black monster with a blue mouth and blue eyes emerged from the void. "What's it doing?" Just then, the monster created smaller voids around it, and they started sucking all of Sonic's friends into them!
"Hey, not cool!" Sonic shouted as he ran towards the monster. He tried to land a Homing Attack on it, but the beast just batted him back like he was nothing.
"Help us... SONIIII-" Screamed Tails as he too, was sucked into one of the voids, leaving Sonic alone to lose consciousness as everything faded to white...
Some time later, Sonic woke up in a strange world where everything was white.
"Ugh, some birthday..." He groaned as he got to his feet. "Where am I?" Looking around, Sonic spotted a hill-like area that started playing on his mind... "Huh. I'm not sure of what's going on, but I'm sure of what I'm gonna do..." After saying that, Sonic jogged into the hill-like area, unaware that a smaller version of himself was running around the place himself, until he found a pure white statue of a two-tailed fox around his size. Without even thinking, Sonic touched the statue, causing it to gain colour aswell as life!
"Whew, thanks Sonic! I thought I was done for... floating without a body in a black limbo!" Said the small fox before shuddering. "I'm gonna have nightmares for weeks..." Sonic then held his hands out to the young Tails, as if he was asking him something... "I don't know. The last thing I can remember is me preparing the Tornado for takeoff, and then everything suddenly went black, like I passed out or something..." Sonic then held his hands out again, as if he was saying "Look at this place!" "Yeah... maybe we can figure out what's going on if we split up and look around..." Sonic nodded in agreement before he and Tails ran off in different directions.
Meanwhile, within the land known as Green Hill, Sonic was blasting through the land at the speed of sound, as the sights of the brown, checkered hills and familiar-looking Badniks got him thinking...
"Can't shake the feeling that I've been here before..." He said to himself before he jumped into a cave and started grinding on a rail. "Okay, I don't remember this place..." Sonic then heard a crashing sound behind him, and when he looked around, a large fish Badnik was jumping after him! "Definately don't remember this place!" Sonic managed to blast out of the cave and avoid the Badnik by landing back on solid ground and continue his run. Next, Sonic came across a large totem pole that seemed to block his path... "Huh. It looks like there's a path on the other side... I wonder..." Not long after saying that, Sonic used his Boost to break through the bottom of the pole, causing it to come crashing down behind him. "Okay, that was a bad idea!" He said as he kept Boosting. Fortunately, Sonic ran into a spring that sent him over to another hilltop before the totem pole could squash him. "Whew! That was close!"
Not too long after, Sonic charged his way through more Badniks to reach a white, life-size statue of Tails at the end of the path.
"Tails! Wait... if everything else around here is colourful, why isn't my buddy?" Sonic then placed his hand on Tails' shoulder, unaware that it would start giving the statue colour and life! "Okay... maybe it's me, but I think I've got the touch..."
"Thanks Sonic, I thought I was dead! Floating without a body in a black limbo!" Tails told him before shuddering. "I'm gonna have nightmares for weeks..." Before Sonic could respond, some sort of white light encased Sonic and Tails into it before it disappeared! Both Sonic and Tails then reappeared just outside of the entrance to Green Hill, which was currently getting its colour restored.
"(That was weird...)" They both thought.
"Is it me, or was that place we were just in awfully familiar?" Asked Sonic, after he and Tails got their heads together.
"Mmm, not to me..." Tails replied before he took a closer look at the entrance. "But it looks like something sucked all the life and colour out of it. Totally strange."
"Eh, no stranger than rescuing genies in magic books or saving aliens in an interstellar amusement park..." Sonic stated as he walked around. "I'm more concerned about finding our friends..."
"Yeah, me too." Tails replied, before spotting a familiar landmark... "Hey Sonic! Over there, in the distance... they're like buildings, but they look weird!"
"That might be a good place to check out..." Said Sonic as he tightened his gloves before running towards where Tails pointed. "I'll be back soon!" As Tails saw Sonic off, a smaller Sonic appeared from behind the fox, surprising him.
"Wow, you weren't kidding when you said soon." He told the younger hedgehog. "I thought you already left!" The younger Sonic nodded before racing towards the same area the older Sonic ran to, making Tails think...
