Chapter One: Remembering the First Summer

In an empty stadium, a lone, two tailed fox-like figure walked to the pressroom. He approached the door and unlocked it. He entered the pressroom and looked at the many pictures of the famous baseball players of the times. One picture was black and white and was of a young man with spiky black with a well-built body.

"There is one all-time greatest moment in the history of sports, and it happened in the 1932 World Series. The story goes that in the bottom of the ninth inning with two out, a full count and the tying run on base, Son Goku raised his arm and pointed to the center field bleachers. No one believed it because nobody had ever done it before. But the Son was calling his shot. On the next pitch, the Super Saiyan hit a towering 400-foot home run. And even although he'd been a hero before that, that's pretty much how he became a legend."

The fox drank his coffee and looked at a picture of nine boys wearing shorts and baseball gloves. On the left, there was a blue hedgehog, wearing a pair of jean, a blue plaid over shirt, and red and white shoes. To the right of the hedgehog was a boy with black hair that was tied in a ponytail wearing a red jacket, black pants, and black shoes. Next to the black haired boy were two boys with brown hair. One boy had short hair, and wore a white over shirt, blue jeans, a bear claw necklace, orange headphones, and sandals. The other had long hair, wore a white Indian cape, red star earrings, and sandals. Next to the boys was an orange fox with blue eyes and two tails. Next to the fox was a raccoon wearing a blue cap that was too big for him and a blue shirt and jeans. Next to the raccoon was a boy with blue eyes and blonde hair, wearing a black shirt, blue and orange pants, and blue shoes that in the front looked like sandals. He also wore a catcher's mask. Next to the blonde boy was another boy with blue eyes, lavender hair, wearing a blue jacket, and white under shirt, blue jeans and, yellow boots. Next to the lavender haired boy and at the end of the picture was a red-orange bandicoot wearing blue jeans and red shoes.

"Thirty years later, a kid named Sonic the Hedgehog became a neighborhood legend. It was in the greatest summer of my life when he taught me how to play baseball, and he became my best friend. And he got me out of the biggest pickle I'd ever be in."

The fox remembered the time when he saw eight of the nine boys played baseball. The batter was the blue hedgehog. The pitch came, and the blue hedgehog hit it. He ran through the first, second, and third plates. By the time he was heading for home plate, the catcher caught the ball, which forced the batter to return to third base. The catcher threw the ball to the third baseman, causing the hedgehog to be stuck between home and third base. Some of the hedgehog's friends, whom were at the benches, saw that their friend was in a jam.

"We gotta help him!" A blonde boy said, and the others followed him to third base.

The seven boys yelled and hollered at the third base man, so they could distract him. The hedgehog was trapped. When the catcher threw the ball to the third base, the batter went to the home plate and made it.

"Yeah!" The blonde yelled, feeling great that his team won the game.

Then, the school bell rang, announcing the end of the school year.
