=The Legacy of Winter=
PART I: The Prelude

---------------------------------------------------------

This is my very first attempt at a Sonic fan fiction,
so expect it not to be of the best quality. All characters
are copyright of Sega and DIC respectively. This fan fic
has been formatted to fit most screen resolutions. This
includes 640X480 and up. Nothing below. If you are running
something below that, then get a new Operating System.
Thank you.

Also, Daniel Winters is NOT me. He is the only
character whom is COPYRIGHT of me. There. You can now
commence reading my 'fic... If you really want to, that is...

picking out spelling errors and bugging me about them until I fixed

one day by making this

-The creator of the Personal Computer because without him, this wouldn't

Abandoned. Picked up again on June 11th, 2001

--Completion Date: July 24th, 12:28 AM Newfoundland Standard Time.

--This story was inspired by the near evilly absurd amount of snow us
Newfoundlanders got this year. I am planning on making this a series,
too. Heh. Yeah. My own series... oh well, this series is most likely
not gonna be the best, but I'll probably think of something else. Why
am I bothering to do this? Nobody's reading this stuff anyways...
Argh... I'm talking to myself again! Hmm... Oh well...

Oh yeah, if you're wondering why the weather readings from Nicole
were inaccurate, here's your reason (I didn't find an occasion to put
this in):

Robotnik reprogrammed the weather sattelite so that it would fire an
electromagnetic beam, causing an atmospheric disturbance. He then proceeded
to seed the clouds with a substance which caused precipitation and also
freezes at temperatures below zero. When he did this, he had not realized
is that when he set the program up to loop the patterns, it didn't loop
the patterns; it looped the weather forecast instead. That's why the snow
stopped and the weather was reported incorrectly. There's your answer.

Thank you for reading my fic! If you enjoyed it, then hooray! I did
something right! If not, then I'll try to make it better... and hop
into an imaginary F-14 and blow up [insert random building here] and
bombard you with "..."...
