Sonic the Hedgehog & My Little Pony
CHAOS is MAGIC: Dark Genesis
Here it is. The main event. The big story.
I am serious. This story is going to be huge. Lots of characters, lots of landmarks and lots of battles. Everything will be revealed. Expect a lot of waiting time while I think of some good and interesting plot elements.
Also, sorry for taking so long with the first chapter. I'm still trying hard to come up for some new ideas to expand on this story. It might also take a while for the next chapters so please have your patience ready.
Thank you all for the support and comments and hope you enjoy this.
Sonic the Hedgehog belongs to SEGA.
My Little Pony belongs to Hasbro.
Previously…
Newly Alicorn Princess; Twilight Sparkle accidently caused a space-time rift to open while fighting a villain from another world. Colliding Unicorn Magic and Chaos Energy causes a rift to open between two worlds, Equestria and Mobius.
Twilight and her friends were sent to Mobius and there they met this world's hero, Sonic the Hedgehog. They teamed up with him and his Freedom Fighters to stop an even powerful villain from destroying all of time; Chaosmare. Although they succeeded, this event would eventually leave a mark on the two worlds, causing a dispute between Mobians and ponies. Even when Ixis Naugus took over as king, he tried to have the princesses of Equestria executed for this crime.
But then, Dr. Eggman takes the lead in this. Not only does he plan to take over Mobius with his new Egg Army but also Equestria. Little do the rest know, a shadowy group called the Legion of Darkness have planned to take over the universe ever since the rise of Chaosmare and her defeat. Their movement was beginning. Their plan was to unleash a Dark Genesis Wave on both worlds, hoping to alter its history and plunge them into darkness, but thanks to Eggman's obsessed revenge, the Dark Genesis Wave was unleashed too early and has now shattered the entire universe into fragments.
What will become the fate of the future? What will happen to our heroes? To Sonic? To Twilight? To their friends?

Chapter 1: The Null Drift Zone
Everything was dark.
"Hey, little fella? Are you alive?" Something was poking him with a stick. "I don't think he's alive."
The blue hedgehog then started to open his eyes slowly. His vision was blurry as he looked around his surroundings. The atmosphere looked purple black and the ground underneath him felt hard. As he moved his head forward he saw a rather weird dwarf with a red rat, green jacket, round nose and white beard as he poked him with his stick once again, startling the hedgehog. "WHOA!"
"AHH!" The dwarf got startled as well as he sees that the hedgehog is okay. "Oh… I guess you're all right."
Sonic the Hedgehog sits his body up and feels his head nudge in pain. "Ow… I feel like my mind just had a seizure."
"I've got medication if you are ailing a headache." The dwarf hands him some pills.
Sonic finally took notice of the dwarf and waves his hand in response. "No thanks. I'll run it off." Sonic gets up on his feet and starts to get a view of where he is. "Actually, how will I run in this?"
The whole world he's in is all but fragments from various areas on either Mobius or Equestria. And the whole background is supported with an empty space of purple clouds and energy.
Sonic looks around to also note that none of his friends are around. "And lemme guess, I'm separated. Yep, just my lucky day, huh?"
The dwarf jumps on top of a mushroom next to Sonic. "Well, I wouldn't say lucky. I mean, not everyone from where I come from were. Who are you? What is your name, friendly traveler?"
"I'm Sonic the Hedgehog."
"Well met." The dwarf introduces himself. "I am the Moochick. I come from a very distant land like yours."
"And what kind of land do you call this?"
"This land has no name I'm afraid. This is the first time I'm actually seeing it." Moochick expresses at the drifting world. "A bunch of islands just drifting in the null of space."
Sonic jumps down to a lower platform. "I guess I'll call this place 'The Null Drift Zone'."
"Are you here to fix the problem?" The Moochick follows him.
"First I need to find my friends. If I'm here then somehow they made it here as well." Determined Sonic. "If there are any others."
Music then starts to play as the platform Sonic is on drifts along the path. "Well, hope you don't mind if I stick around with you, 'cause I don't know where to go. This place seems spooky."
"Sure you can come... as long as you don't-" Sonic spoke too soon as the Moochick breaks into a musical number.
Moochick: There's something so vile and so weird in this place,
There's islands and portals and so many more out of place.
If there's something so chilling that is far from befitting,
It's that I'm in a different recurring retelling.
But if that's not the case.
Then I don't have a trace.
Sonic: I take it you like to sing.
Moochick: And boy I do!
Because if there's something so weird or so out of place.
Then there's one thing I call this whole rotten place.
It's dirty and campy like an old rusty bone.
If there's one thing I would call, it's the Null Drift Zone.
[They come across islands that look like Green Hill and other stages.]
Take a look at these colorful grounds,
Why I think they make wonderful sounds. [Ring noise]
If it's not for you then it's not for me,
This whole place just won't give me glee.
Because if there's something so weird or so out of place.
Then there's one thing I call this whole rotten place.
It's so dirty and moldy like an snow cone.
If there's one thing I would call then it's the Null Drift Zone.
The Null Drift Zone!
Nothing ever looks any creepier than this.
The Null Drift Zone!
How can I enjoy my wonderful bliss?
[Music break as Sonic's platform collides with another and jumps off to land on another. Sonic then spin jumps over some rocky pillers, bouncing off of them and landing on another moving island. Sonic then spots a corkscrew and speeds along it, gaining more height as dashes on it. He jumps off and homing attacks a couple of monstrous bats and lands back on another platform. The Moochick is then riding a boulder down a slide.]
This horrible place. It makes my head spin.
Rolling this rock, it's quite a turn pin.
[He smashes the rock into an obstruction that nearly falls on Sonic, but he manages to reach a nearby ledge and pulls himself up.]
But if that's not the case, then I don't have a trace.
Because if there's something so weird or so out of place.
Then there's one thing I call this whole rotten place.
It's so dirty and smoggy like the smell of an old crone.
If there's one thing I would call, it's the Null Drift Zone.
The Null Drift Zone!
Nothing ever looks any creepier than this.
The Null Drift Zone!
How can I enjoy my very wonderous bliss… when I'm here…
In the Nulllllll Driiiiiiift Zoooooooooooone.
Welcome to the Null Drift Zone.
[End of song.]
Sonic: [Just pulled his fingers out of his ears from listening to the cheesy 80's like children's song.] Lamest... musical number... ever.
Sonic and Moochick walk down a steep pathway and find themselves at a crossroad of portals. Each portal leading to a different world.
"Wow. That's something you don't see every day." Moochick remarked.
"What is this place?" Sonic asked.
"Hmm. So many portals… anyone of them could lead to your friends." Moochick said.
"This has taken weird to the next level." Sonic scratched his head. "I don't even have a clue of what's going on. How did I even end up in this place?"
Moochick becomes surprised. "What? You mean… you don't know how you got here?"
Sonic shut his eyes for a moment, trying to think hard about what happened. But parts of his memory were for some reason a blank. He can't remember a thing. Sonic placed his hand upon his head as he suffers a form of amnesia. "I… I don't know… I can't remember."
The Moochick jumps up to him with a stethoscope. "Oh no! You have amnesia! We need to check if you have chest pains too."
Sonic then brushes him off. "Hey! Look, I appreciate you trying to help me out, but this is something I can handle on my own."
Moochick sits up and asks him another question. "Okay. How about this? If you remember your name, who are your friends?"
Sonic just realized that. "That's easy. My friends are…" Suddenly he hesitated as he can't remember any of his friends too. They were all a blank somehow. Why can't he remember his friends? "Huh? What? How come…?" Sonic seems to be losing it. "My friends…? Who are they? Why can't I remember them? What's going on?!"
"Clearly, this is some sort of mystical spell." Moochick speculates.
"Spell?" Sonic asked. "Sorry, but magic isn't my protégé."
"You don't believe in magic?" Moochick asked.
"I may have lost my memory but I'm not stupid. Magic's for kids by the way." Sonic says.
"Oh dear." Moochick is horrified to hear what Sonic is saying. "Okay… let's calm down."
"Calm down?! I'm the one without any memory, genius. Can you explain to me what the heck is going on?"
"But that's the thing, dear boy. I don't have any recurring memory of this as well." Moochick replied. "But I still believe, that magic has something to do with it. And if my magic is correct, it must be coming from the portals."
"Not helping!" Sonic gets more flustered. "If I know I have friends, why am I having a hard time remembering them or their names even?"
Moochick obviously doesn't have a good answer. "I am not so sure."
"Great!" Sonic crosses his arms and looks over the edge at the other drifting pieces. "I feel like an idiot now."
"I know you're angry right now, Sonic, but we can't just stay here and ponder over this small little matter." Moochick suggested. "If we're gonna have any chance of remembering our friends then the answers must lie inside the portals."
Sonic stared at the portals in his gaze and starts to think. "Even if I don't remember my friends, or if I have any, I hope they're okay... All right, Moochick." Sonic decides to go through one of the portals. "If the answers are in these portals... I believe you."
Marble Garden Zone
In this area, the necromancer goat named Grogar, walks over to a cliff and observes the world around him. "So… It did work."
Three more figures appeared behind him. A black alien; Black Doom, a penguin; King Charlatan and a dark crystalized hedgehog; Mephiles. "What is this place?" Charlatan asked.
"It's a remnant of this world." Grogar answered. "When the Dark Genesis Wave struck it shattered and twisted the two worlds and combined everything from within the known universe into its own."
"Meaning, Mobius and Equestria are now one?" Mephiles asked.
"Almost." Grogar replied. "Though I fear it would not last very long. We still have time to complete our plan."
"But without Lord Tirek and the Hearts of Friendship, we cannot complete our conquest." Charlatan said.
"Not to mention the lack of Chaos Emeralds." Black Doom says.
"It won't be our concern." Grogar said as he smiles. He uses his bell to conjure a map to pinpoint the entire Null Drift Zone. "Many denizens were swept away by the Genesis Wave. Each having their own memory wiped away or with a new origin they have started with. Including the Hearts of Friendship. As for Tirek I cannot say as to what happen to him, but the benefit of the doubt will come to pass. For now, we must focus on containing the Chaos Emeralds, find our subjects and recreate the Genesis Wave before another strikes to reset everything… again!"
"And how much time do we have?" Black Doom asked.
Grogar activates his bell again and a timer appears before them. A clock counting down from said time. "3 days, 12 hours, 30 minutes and 50 seconds. Counting."
"Well… It seems like we have all the time in the world before it crumbles." Mephiles looks to Charlatan in which his stare creeps him out.
"What about the hedgehog and the alicorn?" Charlatan asked.
"The hedgehog's is none of my concern for the time being." Grogar said. "As for the princess…"
"…I sensed that she is impervious to the alterations somehow."
Angel Island Zone
In this zone, the alicorn princess herself, Twilight Sparkle finds herself wandering in a weird place.
"What happened here?" She asked. "Where am I?" Twilight then recognizes the island as she walks through trees and spots a lot of spike traps. "Wait. Isn't this Angel Island? How did I get here? And… where is everypony?" She looked behind her for a moment and started walking again.
Suddenly she hears a rustle in the bushes near her and it causes her to look back and eyed them. "Hello? Is there anypony here?" She tried to call out.
After a pause of silence, three bird-dog like hybrids pop out from the bushes and attack Twilight. Twilight gasps and teleports away from their ambush and the three creatures hit the ground. They get up to see where she went.
"Where did that pony go?" The leader asked.
"Duh… I thought we had her." The dumb one said.
"I thought you had her, numbskull!" The hair-covered one retorted.
The leader bumps them on the heads. "Shut up! There she is!" They see Twilight galloping deeper into the island as she tries to outrun them. "Let's get her!" The Raptorians proceed to chase by air.
Twilight galloped through the treacherous zone, jumped over spike traps, teleported on top of rocks and swung on a rope, much to her panic while trying to evade the swooping Raptorians. After a lengthy chase, Twilight managed to climb to the waterfall area where she is cornered by the Raptorians. Twilight kept a brave face as she pointed her magic glowing horn at them.
"Back away!" Warned Twilight. "I'm not afraid to fight back."
"Duh… this pony means business." The dumb one says as the Raptorians back away from her.
"Who are you? What do you want from me?" Twilight asked while she still aims her horn at them.
"You know exactly what we want from you." The leader said.
"No… I don't."
"We want your magic so we can get revenge." The lead Raptorian said.
"Revenge?" Twilight lowered her guard for a while. "Revenge on who?" Twilight asked.
"You know? Dr. Robot-" Just as the hair-covered one was about to reveal the name for Twilight, the three Raptorians are burnt to a crisp by a flame throwing badnik called Fire Breath. "Ahh!" Yelped Twilight as she saw the machine burn them alive.
Fire Breath shoots a beam of flames at Twilight but she avoids by flying away from it. "That looks like one of Dr. Eggman's robots." She says.
Twilight then charges towards the badnik but it hovers away from her attack and rams itself into her, knocking her back. Twilight lands without a scratch and stares at the badnik. Fire Breath flies above her and tries ambushing her from above. It drops fire balls on her and Twilight does her best to dodge them.
She gallops away from the impacting balls of fire, but she was unlucky when a fire ball explodes near her and topples to the ground. Fire Breath was about to attack Twilight once again while she is temporarily helpless. "I can't hold out like this. I need some help!" Twilight cried as the badnik inches closer, preparing to roast her.
Then, out of the fire comes a red echidna as he glides towards Fire Breath. "Not so fast, you junk heap!" Knuckles thrusts his spiky fists into Fire Breath as Twilight took notice of him. Fire Breath shoots more flames at Knuckles but he jumps to dodge and once again he punches the robot three times before punching into the waterfall. The robot malfunctions as its circuits explode and plummets to the bottom of the waterfall.
Knuckles then walks over to Twilight as she deals with her injuries and lends her a hand. "You okay?" He asked the lavender alicorn who looks up to him.
"Thanks for saving me." Thanked Twilight as she is helped up by Knuckles. "I owe you big time, Knuckles."
Knuckles becomes deeply shocked. "No problem… but… how do you know my name?"
Twilight thinks he's acting silly. "Knuckles? I've known you since the day we saved the universe from Chaosmare. How could I forget someone as brave and great such as you?"
Knuckles then answered sternly. "Because; one: I don't know you. Two: I have no idea what you're talking about. Three: I don't remember meeting you in my whole life."
Twilight sees that he is not kidding. "What?! But how?!"
"You tell me?" He responded.
"Okay. Who are you?" She tests him.
"I'm Knuckles, the guardian of the Master Emerald."
"Okay… then… who are your friends?"
"Friends?… Heh. My friends are…" Knuckles suddenly hesitates. "Uhh… Um… Wait! WHAT?!" Knuckles suddenly gets shocked as he can't remember any of his friends for some reason. "I know I have friends but I can't recall exactly what or who they are!"
"Oh no!" Twilight becomes deeply horrified about this situation.
Knuckles then looks to Twilight and starts to be intimidating. "You! If you know my name then how come I don't know yours?"
"I don't know." Twilight admits. "I only remember seeing blackness when I passed out. But I somehow remember who I am and I know who my friends are."
"Okay." Knuckles said. "Name one."
Twilight was about to speak but she suddenly can't remember their names as well. "Oh no. I guess I could only remember them whenever I see them."
"AGH!" He clutches his head as confusion starts to rain on his brain. "This is so confusing! What is going on here?!"
"That's something I want to find out too." Twilight said. "But my deepest concern is…"
"…Where are my friends?"
Seaside Hill
Elsewhere, a white unicorn, a purple dragon, a yellow two tailed fox and a yellow Pegasus find themselves on a beach somewhere. The four were just walking along the shore trying to figure out what's happening.
"Well, I certainly don't remember ever seeing you before in my life." Rarity said.
"I wasn't even asking." Spike responded. "I just want to know where we are. You are kinda beautiful though."
"I can't really tell if I've ever been here before though. It looks familiar." Tails said scratching his head.
"Oh… but aren't you the cutest little fox I have ever seen." Fluttershy admired Tails while he blushes.
"Awww… c'mon, I'm not that cute." Tails replied.
"But your voice does sound a bit dreadful. I can't tell if you're a boy or a girl." Rarity criticized.
"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?" Tails turned his head to Rarity with a glare.
"Now, now. Let's not resort into an argument." Fluttershy said.
"I was just saying that your voice sounds like a girl's voice." Rarity told Tails.
"But I'm not a girl." Tails corrected.
"I didn't say you were." She replied back.
"You just said my voice was dreadful!" Tails said.
"It was just my fashion ego speaking." Rarity replied as she flips her mane. "It's part of my unique charm."
Spike then butts in by saying "You know, my voice also sounds like a girl."
"That's not what I'm talking about." Tails continues. "I may not know you very well, but for someone like you to criticize my voice other than just my tails is enough to get me mad."
"Oh, excuse me for not expressing my opinion." Rarity sarcastically remarked.
Suddenly, at perfect timing, Spike tackles Rarity to the ground as a beam luckily missed them and it impacts a wall.
"Get off me!" Rarity pushed Spike off her. "My lovely eyelashes!" She cried as one of her false eyelashes fall off her.
"Um, guys. Who is that?" Fluttershy points out while asking.
Tails, Spike, Fluttershy and Rarity then spot where the beam came from; a bulky robot with an Omega symbol on its shoulders and has just fired his Beam Cannon at them. "Proceeding with original objective: Eradicate all organic life." Omega spoke and his gauntlets turn into machine guns, surprising the four.
"Eeep!" Fluttershy shook in fear.
But before Omega could do anything, a black hedgehog dives down and kicks the robot's face in. Omega then fired his turrets all around at Shadow, with him dodging every bullet he fired.
"Quick! Let's get out of here while they're busy!" Tails suggested to the group.
The group nodded, but before they could run off, a tall zebra (who for some reason is standing on two hooves with no problem) jumps down and socks Tails in the face. "More pipsqueaks, huh?" The zebra named Zeb said. "Guess Robotnik still lives on."
"Robotnik?" Rarity questioned as she is unfamiliar with the name. "Who is he?"
And then a large pig with a colored pattern cloak appears behind Rarity and grabs her mane. "Your hair. It's perfect for my new cloak."
Rarity instead bucks her in the face in retaliation. "Nopony touches my mane except me!"
"What's going on here?" Spike asked Fluttershy whilst the confusion continues.
"I don't think I have a clue." She shyly answered.
And to make more matters confusing, a large red dragon swoops in and dives toward Fluttershy. "New pray! This is more enjoyable than hurting pathetic humans!" He roared. As he swooped down, Fluttershy ducks her head and whimpers in fear while the dragon, Zan, missed her.
"D-dragons? Why did it have to be Dragons?" Fluttershy whined.
Spike, the only one left out, begins to question. "What the heck is going on here? I don't even know any of these strangers!"
Crisis City
In a barren and crumbling city, a cyan colored Pegasus with a rainbow mane dodges a car that has just been hurled towards her. After that close encounter, she turns her head to her attacker; a white hedgehog with psychic abilities.
"Hey! Stop throwing those at me, already!" Rainbow Dash yelled.
"Not until you put all of this back together, you fiend!" Silver uses his psychic powers to lift up a portion of the highway underneath Dashie and hurls her into a building.
Dashie manages to fly off the debris as it impacts the building and tries to kick Silver as she flew towards him. "I don't know what you're talking about!"
Silver dodges and catches her in a psychokinetic field. "I may not know what's going on, but something tells me that you have something to do with it." Silver says. "You caused the destruction of this world."
"Are you kidding me?" Said Rainbow Dash. "Do I look like the kinda pony who wants to destroy the world?"
Silver responds with force pushing Rainbow Dash, slamming her through a barrage of destroyed cars and hitting a lamppost before clinging onto it. "You're crazy!" She shouted.
"And you're inconsistent!" Silver retorted. "Now come down from there!"
Silver lifted the lamppost Dashie is hanging onto with his powers and slams her to the ground. Dashie then charged directly at Silver, preparing to kick his butt. "Take this!" She gets ready to do a hoof kick.
But regardless, Silver freezes Dashie with his psychokinesis. "How about this?" He smirked and then he sends Dashie flying off the highway. "TAKE THIS!"
"Waaaaahhh!" Dashie screamed as she is sent flying through this wasteland of a city, all the while Silver flies after her.
Meanwhile, somewhere hidden in this distorted world
A large centaur is seen in a smog of dark clouds, walking towards somewhere weakly.
"I… I know… it was him…" He says as he seems to have been exhausted. "I know… I'm not going crazy… It just… can't be… How? A blue… hedgehog? How could he be…? That one wizard… I thought… Robotnik… had finished him off already… How? I can remember only a figment of Star Swirl. But… a blue hedgehog? Why?"
Suddenly, he starts having a flashback to the past.
Before Tirek was imprisoned in Tartarus, he actually used some magic he stole from a group of unicorns to make contact with another world. Tirek's horns shoot out some magic and activates a projector bubble to show an image of Dr. Ivo Robotnik, the original Robotnik before Dr. Eggman.
Inside Dr. Robotnik's lab, his pet robotic chicken Cluck sees an image of Tirek and clucks in terror, alerting Robotnik and his minion Snively. "Cluck? What seems to be the problem?" Robotnik sees on his computer monitor, an image of Tirek. "What is this?! SNIVELY! Who is this hacker?"
"I-I don't know, Robotnik." Snively said while typing keys on the dashboard. "The system doesn't appear to be hacked."
Robotnik then walked towards his screen and starts questioning the centaur. "Who are you? And how did you hacked through my communications?"
Tirek then starts to talk. "I apologize for intruding you, otherworlder. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Lord Tirek."
"Otherworlder?" Robotnik becomes confused. "So you're calling from another world I see."
"Yes." Tirek responded. "My brother had left me and I have no other choice but to find help from the outside world. What is your name?"
"Hmhmhmhmhm." Robotnik chuckled as he clasps his fingers with a smirk. "I am Ivo Robotnik, ruler of the planet Mobius. But, sometimes I prefer Julian. So, Lord Tirek. What desire do you have that you would want my help with?"
"I wish to take over Equestria! This land of filth that houses the value of friendship and love. A world populated only by ponies, unicorns and Pegasi who believe the absurdity of peace and harmony. Would you accept my wish and help me cleanse this world?"
"Hmm… Let me think." Robotnik gestures his thinking posture and then suddenly smirks and smiles at Tirek. "How do I travel to this world called… Equestria?" He asked all while sporting a deceptive look on his face and his crimson irises on his eyes glow.
The flashback ends and Tirek stumbles onto the ground as he gets smaller in size due to the magic he has stolen is slowly fading away. "So… very… thirsty. Need… more… magic…"
Tirek then held his hand out and it reaches out for a dark purple and black Chaos Emerald. As his hand lands on this strange emerald, it glows and it restores a significant amount of magic into Tirek. Tirek opened his tiny gold eyes again as he slowly becomes empowered by the Dark Emerald. "I feel… much better." He squints his eyes evilly and laughs.
Oil Ocean Zone
Sonic and the Moochick proceed towards a desert, industrial, oil site. Sonic stares at the equipment this zone had to offer. "That's funny. I feel like I've been here before."
"I don't remember this place. No… I have never seen this place." The Moochick said.
"You are a mysterious person, you know that?" Sonic said.
"Who do you think build this place?" Moochick asked.
"Not quite sure. I can think of one, but it's all a blur to me. Anyway, let's stop wasting our time and check this place out."
Sonic races across the industrial area. He jumps off crumbling platforms and lands on another platform that carries Octus badniks. "Now that I think about it, these guys do give me a bit of déjà vu." The Octus badniks shoot out yellow bolts at Sonic, but the hedgehog just spin dashes into them, causing them to break and a little animal runs free. "Hey! There are animals in these things!"
The Moochick meanwhile, peaks down below to see another Octus blasting at him but with his magic staff, he conjures an anvil and allows it to fall onto the badnik. But the clumsy magician then trips over the ledge behind him and falls into a cannon. The cannon then starts shooting him from cannon to cannon at any angle given to him. "Whoaaaa! My head is going all over the place!"
Sonic then sees him going through cannon to cannon and stops his feet. "Hey, that looks like fun! Might as well go for a spin." Sonic jumps into the cannon and shoots up to a cannon above him. "YEAH!" He screamed. Just as Sonic gets launched out of the next cannon, his expression quickly changes when he spots a pink smiling pony coming straight at him. "Uh-Oh!" They collide with each other and the two fall into a pit of oil, causing a splash.
The last cannon the Moochick gets shot out from sends him to a safe landing. "Sonic? Where are you?"
The Moochick finds Sonic as he climbs out of the oil pit along with Pinkie Pie who just bounced out. "Hee hee hee! Now that's what I call making a splash! Let's do it again!" Cheered the oil drenched Pinkie while Sonic gives off a peeved look.
"A… a pony!" The Moochick is thrilled to see one. "I haven't seen one in years. But how?"
"How what?" Sonic asked as he drips from the oil.
"How am I remembering that the world I came from has ponies?" Moochick says.
"Hello, Mister Elf-Gnome-Dwarf guy." Pinkie greeted him. "And hi-ya, Mister blue-mutant hedgehog guy. My name's Pinkie Pie! And I love making new friends!"
"Mutant?" Sonic questioned as he takes it as an insult.
"Now what was that world called again?" Moochick continued to tinker with his brain and try to remember. In the meantime, Sonic and Pinkie talk.
"Maybe you can make some sense of this situation." Sonic said.
Pinkie shakes off all of the oil off her and splatting more on Sonic. "Of course! I am so good at solving super hard problems. Even math problems too."
"Do you know where we are exactly?" Sonic asked.
"Hmm?" Pinkie thought with her hoof resting on her chin. "Nope. Not a clue."
Sonic then vents in his frustration. "Great! How am I going to make sense of all this if I'm running around, breaking all of these badniks while I can't remember who my friends are? This is starting to blow."
Pinkie gasps in shock and runs up to Sonic. "Waitaminute! You don't remember your friends!? That's funny. Because I don't remember my friends as well, and we're both trying to seek out answers to find both of our friends and become happily reunited when we remember them. Guess great minds think alike. *squee*" Pinkie smiled, creeping out Sonic.
"Ooookay. Thanks for that." Said Sonic. "Where to now, Moochick?" Sonic turned his head to see that the Moochick is clutching his head on the ground and is in pain. "Moochick!"
Sonic and Pinkie examine what is wrong with him. "What's wrong?" Sonic asked.
"My… memories… They are… flying around… in my head…" Moochick stuttered. "Too fast… f-for me to catch up…"
"Are you sure you're not feeling sick, Mr. Mootrick?" Pinkie asked. "Should I get you a cupcake?"
The Moochick got up and looked up at Sonic. "Sonic. Whatever kind of sorcery is happening, it's not good."
"What do you remember?" Sonic asked.
"I remember... a black cloud." The Moochick said which brings the attention to Sonic and Pinkie. "I remember seeing a black cloud too." Pinkie told Sonic.
"I'm gonna stay behind and see if my magic can cook up something that can fight against this horrible image." Moochick got up and picked up his staff. "It might give us a lead of what's happening."
"Are you sure?" Concerned Sonic.
"Of course I am. I may be old but I still have a kick for when it comes to danger." The Moochick starts to walk off into an open portal. "I'll see you soon." With that, the Moochick disappeared into the portal, leaving only Sonic and Pinkie.
"Sooooo…?" Pinkie leaned her head towards Sonic.
"So what?" He asked back.
"Do you like cake?" Pinkie asked, fluttering her eyes while continuing to sport a happy smile.
Sonic groans and starts walking. "C'mon. Let's just get going."
"Okie Dokie Lokie!"
Sonic and Pinkie Pie go through another portal to exit this zone.
Central City
In the city, tons of people are fleeing in terror from something.
"HELP US!"
"WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!"
"MY BABY!"
Amongst the people are a pink hedgehog, a mustard pony with a pith helmet and an orange pony with a cowboy hat. The three view the people as they run for cover screaming for help.
"Where are they all runnin' off to?" Applejack wondered.
"How did I get here? Who are you guys?" Daring Do asked.
"What are they screaming about?" Amy Rose pondered.
Applejack then spots an army of Black Arms aliens in front of her. "Uh, Ah think it's them they're runnin' from!" She pointed out for them.
"Aliens!?" Amy exclaimed.
A Black Arms grunt shoots beams at them with its blaster. The trio split up to make a break for it.
"Ugh! Why do I feel like I just came out of a bad film?" Daring complained as she dodges the crossfire and slides under one of the aliens who tried to grab her.
Amy bashes one of them out with her Piko Piko Hammer. "You disgusting things! Get away!"
"Move it or lose it, ya alien varmints!" Applejack manages to buck one of them to the ground.
Amy manages to dodge one of the alien's attacks and whacks him away with her hammer. One alien was going to strike her down from behind, but then a green crocodile grabbed him into the air and tossed him, knocking down more aliens. Amy looks behind to see her rescuer. "Who-?"
"Don't worry, ma'am! We got this!" Vector said.
Now you expect his usual gang to appear behind him, but instead his gang is completely different. It includes; a white polar bear (Bark the Polar Bear), a Pegasus with a yellow fire mane (Spitfire), a black Metal Sonic (Shard), a tiny colt (Pipsqueak), a pony in royal armor (Flash Sentry) and a boy wearing a chicken costume (Billy Hatcher) "TEAM CHAOTIX, GO!" Vector commanded and they proceed with an all-out attack on the Black Arms aliens.
Flash Sentry zaps three of them with his horn while Shard flies around shooting blast beams at them in his sights. A big bruiser alien leapt to strike Shard down but Bark leapt in to strike him down instead. "Woo! Thanks for the save, 'snowflake'." Shard thanked.
Daring Do finds herself cornered by aliens but Spitfire races in, holding a thundercloud and hovering on top of them. Spitfire kicks the cloud, causing a lightning bolt to shoot out and take out the aliens, saving Daring. Spitfire floats to the ground while Daring gives off an annoyed look.
"I didn't needed saving, ya know?" She told her.
"Doesn't look like you were doing anything, ya know?" Spitfire retorted, making Daring react with shock but gets agitated again.
Billy then storms in rolling a giant blue polka dot egg and running down every one of the aliens with it. "Coo-cotoo-cadoo!" He cheered.
Applejack jumps away from an alien's swipe but trips to the ground. While she is helpless at this point, Shard blasts the alien with a energy impaling beam, saving her.
"That's all of them, Vector." Spitfire said to him.
"Great job, team! Only one step ahead to finding that computer room." Vector congratulated.
"Excuse me." Applejack, Daring and Amy walked up to them as they regroup. "But what in tarnation is goin' on here? And who are you people?" AJ asked.
"Sorry, ma'am. Forgot to introduce ourselves." Vector points his thumb to himself. "We're Team Chaotix. Vector's the name, and solving crimes is my game!"
"Oh, how charming." Amy sarcastically remarked while leaning on her hammer and Daring snickers.
"And these my guys." Vector call them out. "Spitfire, Shard, Flash Sentry and Bark."
Billy then walked up to Applejack and shakes her hoof. "Good morning!" And yes, that's all he can say.
"That's Billy." Spitfire said.
"And who are you, little guy?" Amy talked to Pipsqueak who is surprisingly on the team. "It's too dangerous to be out here for you."
"My name is Pipsqueak!" He speaks with a cute British accent. "I'm only here because I can learn how to fight like the Chaotix." Pipsqueak says while he maintains his optimism. "And one of these days… I'll be a fighter and leader just like Vector."
"Oookay?" Amy said while she looks at the colt weirdly.
"Go easy on the little guy." Vector rubs his bushy head. "This tyke's tough. Kinda reminds me of someone I know."
Daring Do, being impatient as always, steps up to talk. "Look, as much as we like to stand around and talk about the kid's good heart, we still need to find out why we are all here and how we got here."
"I agree with explorer girl over here." Shard said. "I'm not sure why, but I can't seem to recall how I got here in the first place. Everything seems like a blank to me. Also, it feels like my memory banks have some kind of error whenever I access it."
"And what's this computer room you're looking for?" Applejack asked.
"It's all I could think of for some odd reason. But I know for a fact that it's the only answer for me. The computer room is where we could find all of the information of this situation, the weird amnesia and this distorted world."
"And where is this computer room?" Daring asked.
"Uhh… good question. It could be anywhere." Vector scratched his head.
"Well, looks like we're wasting our time asking." Daring said. "So let's see if we can get a move on."
"It's dangerous around The Void. You won't last one minute when we exit this world." Flash Sentry said.
"Do you have any idea who I am?" Daring starts talking back at Flash.
Amy then starts to hear some strange ticking sounds. "Hey, guys? Do any of you hear that strange ticking?"
Team Chaotix, Applejack and Daring stopped talking to hear some beeping sounds. "Sound like time bombs." Shard said.
"Time bombs?!" Applejack yelped in horror.
The strange party of animals, ponies and a boy in a chicken suit then looked down from below the highway to see that the buildings and street corners are stashed with purple bombs and are set to explode on a time limit.
"Is anyone here a bomb expert?" Vector asked the group while clearly none of them have any experience with bombs. "Didn't think so."
The Heart of the World
Grogar, Black Doom, Mephiles and Charlatan found themselves in the center of the Distorted World. They enter a hall that has a computer and dark orbs that project the other areas, worlds and lands.
"A fitting place for an evil-doer such as yourself." Mephiles adds while looking to his master.
"So… this is where the machine went." Grogar walks over to investigate. He notices that it's the same Cosmic Reset device that Dr. Eggman had in the Death Egg Mk II. Grogar bushed the device of its dust, only to find what was left behind of Dimitri… his red metallic eye. "Dimitri failed." Grogar angrily commented.
"Not the best idea to place an echidna in the position of keeping the doctor from pressing the Cosmic Reset Button while it was in development." Black Doom said.
"No. But it was for the better I suppose." Grogar gives his condolences to Dimitri. "We need to repair the damage done however."
Charlatan then gazed his eyes at something on the wall. The wall had a golden door right there and it looked like it was locked for a long time. He backs away slowly with fear and calls for Grogar. "Um… Grogar? There's a door in the middle of the room."
Grogar took notice of the door and confidently walks up to it. While Grogar shows no fear while heading towards the golden door, he has a very cold feeling about it. Mephiles and Doom just watch while Charlatan shivers.
Grogar reaches the door, he stares at the golden paint of this door for a good ten seconds and after that he rings his bell to conjure a shadowy hand. The hand grasps onto the large handle and twists it open to unlock. He slowly opens the door and with a sudden surprise, a flame ball comes flying towards his face. But Grogar's quick reflexes allows him to tilt his head back to dodge the incoming flame missile and flies towards Mephiles, which he conjures a dark protective shield to avoid the flame missile as it exploded.
Grogar then jumps a few feet back as the door becomes completely ajar and a bunch of old school villains run or fly out. One of them, whose name is Lavan, proceeds to fire another missile but Grogar shoots out a shadow hand to cover the missile and explodes on it.
"Who are you? Are you one of Robotnik's lackeys?!" Lavan questioned Grogar as he does not seem to trust him.
Grogar keeps calm and tells him the truth. "Actually, like you, I was imprisoned by him as well."
Lavan held his fire and starts to recognize him. "Grogar? You're alive!"
The other villains gather around. "But that's impossible!" A hideous witch named Hydia walks up to Grogar. "Robotnik. I thought he-"
"Robotnik is dead." Grogar told them the story and the villains gasp. "The last I've heard about him was being erased from existence."
"You mean… we're free?" Catrina asked.
"Apparently so." Grogar said. "But unfortunately, due to the effects of our failed Genesis Wave experiment, the world that you are seeing right now is not what it seems."
"After all this time, all this planning… it's gone to waste!" Squirk the octopus complained. "You wasted our opportunity, you old goat!"
"I understand your anger, Squirk. But, during our planned ritual, the doctor intervened and created this distorted paradise where worlds linger endlessly and monsters roam." Grogar told them.
The word 'doctor' spooks the villains. "Did you say… d-d-d… doctor?!" Reeka freaked out.
"Doctor Robotnik is alive!?" Draggle freaked out as well and the two sisters end up ramming into each other.
Lavan gets angry and walks up to Grogar. "I thought you said Doctor Robotnik is dead!"
"He is." Mephiles talks. "Only the Dr. Robotnik of the original Mobius is dead. This Robotnik is no different than the one who trapped us all in the Zone of Chaos. He comes from another world and although he shares the same past and personality of the original Robotnik, his motivations are completely different. He is now called Dr. Eggman, and for your concern; it's best that we ignore him since we have no desire to harm him."
"Aww… but that's no fun if we're not beating down Robotnik." A gizmonk said.
"Wait a minute!" Lavan begins to notice. "Where is Lord Tirek? Shouldn't he be with you?"
"I sense Tirek's presence within this world." Mephiles said. "But regards of his location, I do not know."
Catrina walked towards Grogar. "Do you know how long we've been trapped in the Zone of Chaos?"
"30 Years. I know." Grogar said. "But trust me, as much as you crave the destruction of the man who sent us here for that long, we must focus on our new goal."
"And what's that, old friend?" Lavan asked.
"By repairing the Cosmic Reset Button." Grogar then starts to explain his plan to his fellow villains. "First we must gather the Hearts of Friendship. Then once we've located the seven Chaos Emeralds, we must locate Tirek. With those in our possessions, we can program the machine and cause a new Dark Genesis Wave. One that will alternate the entire universe to our liking. Conquest. Order. And Slavery. Every living being in the known universe, Mobian or Pony, will be our slaves. No magic, no extrodinary abilities, no harmony."
"A brilliant plan indeed, Grogar!" Hydia complimented. "But, if any of those inferior ponies or knuckleheaded idiots get in our way, what is the best course of action?"
Grogar grins and turns to them with a cold answer. "Destroy them on sight. We can't let them get in our way ever again."
The villains then exchange evil looks at each other while Grogar smiles at the thought of ruling the universe with no oppressors.
Back in the Null Drift Zone
Sonic and Pinkie Pie are walking along the path to find another portal to go through. While Sonic is determined to find some answers, Pinkie just hops alongside him while humming cheerfully as if she's not scared of anything. "La-la-la, la-la-la."
"Are you always this cheerful?" Sonic asked.
"Of course. I always keep on smiling no matter where I am or how scary this place looks."
"Aren't you worried that if we can't find our memories, we'll never remember our friends?"
Pinkie giggles and snorts. "Don't be so silly, dilly. I just know we'll find our friends and I know we're gonna remember each other. And after that, we'll throw a party! With balloons, music and cake. Ooh! I love cake!"
"Yeah, well a party like that isn't enough to get me to smile." Sonic said in suspicion. "And this all seems very familiar somehow."
"How familiar?" Pinkie asked. "I don't see a resemblance." She and Sonic are staring at a mural that depicts a monster battling a yellow lifeform.
"That's the thing." Sonic pointed out. "I don't know how I got to this place but I know I've seen this before. But when… and how?"
Just then, Pinkie turned her head around to see a big purple cat. "Hey, look! There's somepony we can talk to."
"You mean 'someone'." Sonic turns around to see the big cat.
He may look like Big the Cat, but he seems to have a scar on his face and his mentality is more stable and twisted.
"Hey, buddy. Do you where we are? Can you lend us a hand?" Sonic asked nicely but without quickly reacting, the cat suddenly throws a punch and socks Sonic right in the face. The cobalt hedgehog gets thrown back but he skids his feet and lands next to Pinkie while he strikes a battle pose.
"Hey! That wasn't very nice!" Pinkie angrily complained. "That was super mean!"
"Well at least he gave me a hand." Sonic quipped.
The deranged cat then walked up to the duo. "It's you! Remember me, 'Snot'?"
Sonic laughs. "'Snot'? What kind of nickname is that? Also I don't remember you in any way."
"Well, I do. And now I'm gonna return the favor!" The cat throws another punch while Pinkie ducks, this time Sonic jumps up to avoid and roundhouse kicks him in the face.
"Nice try, buddy." Sonic teased. "But nobody is as fast as me."
"Are you calling me slow?" The cat looks at Sonic with angry eyes and charges at him. "Nobody calls Smalls slow!"
He rams Sonic through a brick wall and the two fall down through an inverted hallway that looks like the interior of Hidden Palace Zone. Smalls punches Sonic towards a pillar but Sonic maintains his balance and spin dashes along the pillar, before launching off the pillar and ramming into Smalls gut and the two end up crashing into another room. Pinkie is just watching all of this go down while chowing down on some popcorn, all without providing some help for Sonic.
Sonic homing attacks Smalls' face several times before Smalls himself catches Sonic with perfect timing and holds him by the neck. "That hurt." He said.
"I can see why." Sonic quips even while gagging in his grasp.
"You're gonna be sorry now, 'Snot'." Smalls says as he readies to slug Sonic in the face again, but before he could do that, Smalls immediately gets tasered by a voltage of electricity. "AHHH!" Releasing Sonic from his grasp, Smalls collapses to the ground into unconsciousness.
"Whoa. What a shocker." Sonic makes a bad pun as he got up on his feet.
And then Pinkie rushed in all excited and hyper. "Ohmygosh, ohmygosh, ohmygosh! That was super exciting! I give it three woohoos!" She jumps up and down while chanting "Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo!"
"Exciting!? You could have at least backed me up!" Sonic said.
"You're welcome." Said the person who saved Sonic.
Sonic then turns to a mysterious figure. "Oh… thanks for the save by the way. Don't suppose you have any ideas on what's going on here?"
"Actually. I know exactly what's going on here." The figure walks towards the light to reveal himself to Sonic and Pinkie. His appearance shocks Sonic and even Pinkie.
"Hey! He looks like you!" Pinkie said. "Are you brothers or cousins or maybe..."
"Who!? Who are-?" He stuttered.
"So, you can't remember huh? If that's so… let me introduce myself." He is a blue hedgehog like Sonic, except he has green and yellow attire and a helmet. "I am Zonic. And you and I have a major problem."
Sonic is at the very least concerned that he looks like him and talks just like him and while he stares at his mysterious doppelgänger, Pinkie lets out a "Ooooooooh!" She looks to Sonic. "I can't wait to hear about this major problem!"
To be continued… "Awww… already?!" Pinkie complained as the chapter comes to a cliffhanger.
Off Words
[Sonic and Pinkie are travelling down the road trying to remember their friends.]
Sonic: I can remember bit by bit of my friends. What about you, Pinkie?
Pinkie: Lemme see. [She suddenly starts remembering the G3 years.] Well, I remembered that there was this huge princess promenade. There were breezies, cheers and a lot of flowers. Rainbow Dash suddenly says 'darling' like every time she speaks and for some reason likes to dress in style. Which is weird because I know that Rarity likes to dress in style too. And then at the end of the celebration, a pony princess crowned everypony in Ponyville princesses.
Sonic: [Feels like he wants to gag.] Ugh! Not the kind of story I ever want to hear for a long time.
Pinkie: Hey. I just remembered some friends. Do you remember anything from your friends, Sonic?
Sonic: [Starts remembering the 'dark age'.] Well, let's see; There were aliens attacking cities, Shadow having amnesia, Eggman looked like he lost some weight, a silver hedgehog attacking me. And then I died for some reason and then I came back to life from something... I can't remember what...
[Sonic suddenly remembers getting kissed by a princess at that time.]
Pinkie: Sonic? Are you okay?
Sonic: [In a state of shock.] I... I kissed a girl.
Pinkie: Aww... how cute.
Sonic: I kissed a human girl.
[Both Sonic and Pinkie are in a state of shock.]
Pinkie: You know what? I don't feel like remembering about the past anymore.
Don't remind us. We've all been there.
Now, you may have noticed that throughout this story I've added characters from the Generation 1 My Little Pony series. While I had no recollection of the original 80's show or even cared at the time, I did take up some of my free time to watch some of these episodes and looked up wikis to learn about these villains.
Also, the story is going to be like Sonic Generations only with added twists.
I've also watched Sonic SatAM, and I'll admit that cartoon is awesome. Also, Doctor Robotnik is probably the most menacing villain in the show, which is why he's gonna be such a big plot point in this story and I'm excited to see how well I can execute it.
And that's right everybody, Billy Hatcher is in this fanfic and is in no way connected to the story whatsoever.
So anyway. What do you think about the start of this new story?
Thanks for your support. See ya!
