chapter one- seven years after

sonic the hedgehog was nervous. It had been seven years since the end of sonic generations and things had changed for the group. Blaze seemed more relaxed and friendly and sonic was sure that Amy had shifted from him to silver. Shadow had met up with sally acorn a friend sonic had lost touch with after the robotazation battles with eggman's predecessor robotnik. She hadn't spoken with sonic since she got weaponized and turned against her friends. Sonic had to admit the trauma from that was not what he expected. He had been hurt because of that incident and since sally was freed yet again she avoided the hedgehog as though he was no longer a friend. Unexpectedly the ultimate life form and the princess of the kingdom of acorn had gotten married. Sonic didn't attend as he didn't want to bring up old scars. Ever since the battle with time eater sonic had felt two different time lines merge with him. He remembered the adventures he had as if he wasn't one of a set of triplets nor a prince. Not only that but he remembered that alternate time line where silver came from the future to kill him. That was a weird experience in his mind. The hedgehog had started to wear a red vest with white trim and his gauntlet from his adventure. Sheathed on his back was caliburn. The sacred sword that was his partner in the Arthurian kingdom and showed that he was king author reborn. Around his left arm was the three world rings he used against erazor. He had gotten taller and was right now thinking on what had happened with his friends.

It has been seven years now since we last saw egg-man and his past self. And a lot has changed. Marine somehow came to this dimension and got together with tails and cream as a trio of explorers. Knuckles and rouge had gotten together as archeologists studying the history of mobious. silver and Amy started dating and to be honest im relieved she was getting way to fan girl on me. And now this I swear im not getting to have a break for a while now. Sonic stood from his seat on the tree branch and started to jog of green hill zone. Than there was that adventure on the lost hex I met a new friend from a dream world named NiGHTs there and man I still cant believe that guy was actually a heroic nightmare kind of a ironic twist for sure than again dreams don't make sense. Sonic ducked a branch and entered a loop. But right now im sure of one thing and that is how much blaze changed. She seemed to have opened up a lot more than the last adventure we had. Not to mention she and I are more close than anyone can guess. I just hope things stay this calm for a while more. Sonic had finnally arrived back to his house and entered his home with the bracelet he got from light gaia aka chip on his right arm. The cyan hedgehog yawned as he took off caliburn's sheath and layed down on his bed. The hedgehog closed his eyes falling asleep thinking of when he can finally retire from saving the at the wedding of shadow and sally, blaze was looking around. So far she had met up with tails, marine and cream. She spotted silver and Amy dancing while knuckles and rouge were talking to the chaotix about their latest adventure. But she didn't see the one she was looking for.

Hard to believe it has been seven years since that day. I really should thank egg-man because that incident had stablized the connection between the two dimensions slightly but right now im a bit worried where in the world is sonic. He should have been here? Now that I think about it sally seemed to be avoiding sonic since they saw each other. From what tails told me sally had been turned into a robot by eggman's dad Dr robotnik. oh now I see she feels as if she betrayed her friends and distanced herself from sonic to avoid a repeat of the experience. But in doing so she hurt sonic and created a huge rift. Sonic must not want to open old wounds and stayed at home I wanted to catch up to him. Guess while I wait for the wedding to end I better catch sally up on what sonic has been through. Soon at the reception blaze approached the newly weds. "hello there shadow, sally I came to help catch you up on how sonic is doing since you last saw each other" blaze said politely. "really what has sonic been up to since we parted" asked the chipmunk/squirrel hybrid. "oh trust me he has been through a lot" started blaze talking about the adventures she had with the hedgehog. Shadow also told of the adventures he had with his friend. Tails and cream joined in with Amy. Tails had talked about all the adventures sonic was on. Than the wedding got a huge surprise in the form of a magenta and a green hedgehog walking up with a purple hedgehog in royal regalia. "are you guys talking about sonic my son" asked the apparent royal hedgehog. "wait your Sonic's mother but I met her and she did not look like you" sally said shocked. "oh you must have met my cousin im queen aleena these are my children and the remaining members of the royal triplets Sonia and manic" said the hedgehog female while Sonia bowed in a curtsy. "nice to meet you princess and your new husband and I wonder where that brother of mine is" said Sonia politely. "sonic didn't attend a incident from his and sally's past had created a huge rift between them. She pushed sonic away and left some emotional hurt of betrayal he didn't want to reopen that particular scar" said blaze making sally wince in shock. "i wondered what happened between the two since sally kept avoiding him" said shadow with concern for the blue speedster. "oh dear no wonder the kingdom of acorn cut ties with my kingdom" sighed aleena as she sat down and rubbed the bridge of her nose. Blaze sighed as well. "from what I can tell the incident was caused by dr eggman's farther dr robotnik" said blaze. "oh sorry but who are you all I recognize knuckles but the rest are a bit unfamiliar" asked manic as he joined the conversation. "im miles prowler but call me tails sonic see's me as a little brother" said tails. "im marine best sailor of the sea of me and blaze's home nice to see you mate" said marine. "im cream the rabbit over with the crocodile is my mother vanilla" said cream. "lady vanilla? My old captain of the guard? That same vanilla" asked aleena wide eyed looking at the female rabbit in question. "it is her lady vanilla it's been a long time!" called aleena and the red haired rabbit stiffened and turned around spotting her old friend. "your majesty! Is that really you" asked vanilla as she and her fiance walked up. "i thought I saw a familiar face so you stopped being a knight because you had a Daughter if she's anything like you she will make a swell knight" said aleena with a grin. "she already has the makings of a detective im victor the crocodile leader of the chaotix detective agency and vanilla's fiance" said the detective mobian. "right surprise over with im Amy and this is my boyfriend silver we are friends of sonic though I will admit I was a fan-girl for years it took a incident with a being that can alter time and space for me to realize that sonic only saw me like a cousin" said Amy. Silver nodded than used his telekinesis to retrieve his cuffs from manic."watch it manic those keep a lid on my psychic power they help me with my control" said silver. "im rouge knuckle's girlfriend and hopefully fiance he and I became archaeologists" said rouge. "sweet I know a former thieves guild that needs some honest work now that robotnik is gone" said manic. "thanks we need a new crew to explore ruins and to get the artifacts out of them intact as a former thief myself that is going to show that they can handle the treasures of the past gently it's our history after all" smiled rouge. "im blaze ruler of the sol dimension and friend of sonic I protect the sol emeralds my world's versions of the chaos emeralds of this world" said blaze. "another princess and form another world huh man how did bro meet you" asked Sonia with a giggle. " a unstable connection between worlds caused by my world's Dr egg-man named nega. He scattered the sol emeralds all over this dimension and I had to get them back all with the results of what would happen if both worlds fused on the mind adding to the stress of the situation. Back than I was not really sociable as I lived an isolated life guarding the sol emeralds. Didn't have any friends at all than as well. Sonic became my best friend while cream here was the first I befriended. she and marine are like tails is to sonic for me. Sonic was the one to help me open up to others and make sure that I would be alright despite my power over fire" said blaze. "you can control fire well that explains the name" said manic wide eyed making a note to not tick her off. "yeah that sounds like sonic all right always making friends anywhere" said sally with a sad frown as she realized her mistake. "listen sally sonic knows you had needed time to get over that incident but pushing others away was not the answer. you have hurt a friend that way and all im saying is that you need to make amends with him. He moved on so why won't you" shadow told his new wife as he recalled doing a similar thing when he met the blue blur.

And maybe I can help them at least be friends again. I hope blaze can help out sonic with this he needs the closure and I think he will make sure that he still has his friends to help him out. shadow thought as he sighed(end chapter)

a/n: okay guys i had this idea for a while now and have gotten sonic guru's permission to write a next generations story so expect to see flare and her sisters along side his other ocs for the next generation team. right now im up to chapter four of this story and will post the next two shortly so please bear with me i will not set up a deadline for this story and will write it at my own pace. if you want to suggest ocs for rivals in the next generation than you might want to pm me about them by making a bio of them with their abilities. i am already adding my own oc to those of sonic guru's for this to round up the team. any questions about this story don't hesitate to ask. just know i wont do lemons im rating this for teen for a reason. mainly that im not confidante enough for that. and if you want to betaread this than pm me for the position because my fighting scenes need a lot of work. right now im im the slice of life arc which is basically a change in how the characters live and set up the relation ships of the old team. and yes im having trouble on the matters of cream, marine and tails. i know sonic guru ships both separately but i am not sure if i should let both date tails at the same time.
