This fic is a group effort started on a messageboard called lofty-bearing (www.lofty-bearing.org) The writes for this chapther are myself (for the beginning and the end) , giant27603and fox fire (for sonic happening and the tiny bit after). I would also like to thank Nai for the inspiration and help he has given me. Work on chapter 2 has begun, but were still open for replies! ************************

In his laboratory (if one can call it that) Chuck was attempting to analyze the chaos emeralds with a special machine he had made.

The machine was warming up and it would take a while, so Chuck asked Cream (who was observing) to watch over the machine.

Suddenly the machine started making strange noises and steam came. Cream ushered Cheese (her choa) away, as she tried to fix it. The machine continued to steam and make its strange noises then it exploded, sending cream flying back. Chuck immediately ran back to investigate the noise.

"Are you all right?" Chuck asked anxiously

Cream brushed her self off "I'm fine, though I do feel a little strange."

"What happened?"

"The machine just started acting strangely then blew up!"

"Hmm"

Chuck walked over to the emeralds, which felt somewhat lighter.

"It seems the machine just got overloaded. I'm surprised your not more seriously hurt, are you sure you don't want a lie down?"

"I'm fine, I just feel a little strange".

Later..... Sonic walks into the laboratory and sees cream. "Hey cream" he says. "Hey sonic" "what's up" "nothing just helping chuck" sonic walks over to talk to cream but all of a sudden a machine started making some strange noises and exploded right in his face. sonic felt weird "whoa" Chuck came out. "Sonic are you okay? second time in an hour" sonic was curious. "what do you mean second time?" "well it happened to cream to" "oh, well...." before sonic finished his sentence something weird happened. everything was getting smaller." "What's happening?" sonic yelled, his voice slowly fading away. Sonic felt woozy as the common house hold objects began to sky rocket above his head. Sonic stood in shock. He was now a very little hedgehog in very very big world. As chance would have it guess who showed up at this very inopportune time none other than Doctor Robotnik. dum dum dum. However, as Sonic was shrinking, Cream was shooting up at great speed. Cream noticed that the objects in the room appeared to be shrinking, and felt herself rising up. "W-W-what's happening?!" Cream wondered, frightended.

Soon Sonic was little bigger than an ant, while Cream reached the ceiling (which she bumped her head off).

"Ow" Cream said rubbing her head "Mr Sonic? Where are you?".

Cream's voice boomed across the room. Cream looked around the room and gasped.

"W-w-what happened?" Cream looked round and then down at herself. "Oh my.... what has happened to me? I'm huge!" Cream panicked, then released she couldn't see Sonic anywhere. Uh-oh... Cream thought Sonic where are you?"

Cream panicked what if I hurt him. Oh my, oh my.... she thought.

Sonic meanwhile was on Creams now gigantic trainer yelling as loud as he could. Realizing that wasn't getting him anywhere, Sonic jumped up and down, in an attempt to draw Cream's attention. Cream felt it very lightly, and looked down. Cream kneeled down to investigate what appeared to be a tiny blue speck on her shoes.

"SONIC? IS THAT YOU?" Cream boomed.

Sonic covered his ears.

"ow watch it. Could you speak a little quieter?"

"SORRY"

Sonic covered his ears again. Cream winced, but she couldn't help but smile.

"how did this happen?" Asked Sonic

Cream was about to reply, when Robotnik(or Eggman, whatever) called from outside

"Come out come out Sonic! I know your in there! Come out or I'll just have to force my way in" Robotnik gave a laugh

"Oh no what will we do......" Cream wondered aloud
