This is a slight AU. There will be major changes in the characters in this fic, so you are warned. Also, warnings for het, yaoi, violence, and possible character death in later chapters.
Prologue: Upcoming Events
Seven precious emeralds with mysterious power that overwhelms,
Melded with the rare sapphire stones found only in dreams.
Will it bring unheard of disasters or illusionary peace?
Both heroes of the future and heroes of the past
Come with warnings for the present heroes
To stop history from repeating itself.
Fate has brought two different worlds together…
…The residents of Dreamworld… and the residents of Earth…
…But can they defeat the new evil when their worlds are changing before their very eyes?
The young, pale rabbit watched with awed interest as gloved hands fumbled with a screwdriver here and a hammer there, empty oil cans scattered about along with screws, bolts, nails and long pieces of hard metal. Snipped cords of every color lay limply against a large opening in the half-built machine. His feet and two fluffy tangerine-colored tails tipped with vanilla swishing back and forth rapidly. What the machine did the little rabbit did not know, but she didn't dare ask, for she knew once the boy became wrapped up in a new project, he was determined to finish, test it, perfect it.
…This was not the same for other members of the household.
The sound of slowly trickling drops of the purest water… mixing with the rapid pouring of tainted blood. Bringing both warnings of disaster and peace, evil and its good opposers, nightmares and pleasant dreams… A long-forgotten princess of those sacred ruins returned once again, while a stubborn struggling child, a new face, followed suit from a place no one knew of yet. Both brought bad news for a well-known hero.
Target practice. Crimson gun gripped tightly in his hand, he fired a few shots at he defenseless little monsters he had rounded up. Too easy. He needed…
…something to keep him stable. But what was good for a reject experiment like him? He had no place on Earth or any other world, being created by a psycho scientist and villainous alien, both were dead now. Long gone.
A few bullets hit the already non-functional robot before he chucked the gun at it and let out a low, angry curse.
…What good was a copy of something "real"?
Dream Traveler… If you wish to become a true hero, you will have to travel to other worlds once again. But you will not travel through dreams.
You will travel like no travel you have done before.
Gather your fellow heroes for a battle to save the future of al the worlds.
An ally you have thought to be dead has been reborn and will return, becoming a key point and the beginning to a new adventure.
Good luck, Dream Traveler.
Golden orbs slowly blinked open, blinking away all dreary feelings as the familiar voice faded from his dreams. Dreams… A new adventure like none other that I've been on? Wha… hm. Shaking his long, floppy, black ears around, he stretched wide as he welcomed the bright new day.
…Is it King of Sorrow?
Freedom was his call. He couldn't be bound to one place for long periods of time. It was just how he was built on the inside, running through his blood. He didn't try to be heroic, do heroism. He didn't want glory, he didn't want praise, or to be heroic; it was just something he ended up doing. But currently there were no worldly wars, no earth-shattering disasters, or no otherworldly invasions at the moment. In rare, cherished times like these, he could relax. He could rest. At times like there he could sleep. Dream.
Peaceful.
That was… until he was called by a familiar calm, yet urgent, soft-spoken female voice followed shortly after by an unfamiliar, harsh, yet also urgent, irate male voice.
"Sonic-san!"
"YOU."
-To be continued-
The only Japanese that will be used in this fic is honourifics and words characters usually say. This is an AU-ish fic. This is a crossover fic. This will also contain both het and yaoi (or mild slash). If you do not like any of those things, then don't read any future chapters I post. Any suggestions, complaints or constructive criticism may be left in a review. Please review.
