TheChaosChronicles: Volume 1

By the way if you want to give any reviews then go ahead I'm not ashamed of a few mistakes. I'll accept any criticism that can help my story get better.

Chapter 1

A Slave No More

Told From Fade's Point-Of-View

As I felt the pain and drifted away into death's cold embrace. My life squeezing away from my grasp.

"Eliminate" was all my aggressor had to say.

Light faded and sound dulled. Then suddenly a clash of steel and I felt the air rush past my back. I awoke the world was back my only friend fighting his way past the groping claws of E-123 Omega. I had no strength. All I could do was watch and hope for his strength to prevail. Darkness returned and I heard nothing. all I could think of was why I was doing this and if there was anything better for me to use my strength for. I awoke. The sounds of my home had returned. I knew we were alright. Doctor Eggman walked in and spoke of our mission. We had failed. Every time those bastards got in our way this happened.

"Kage" The Doctor piped in "you are to go and oversee the construction of the new machines it will take longer because you lost the part, but that can't be helped"

My friend walked off muttering about boring work.

Eggman turned to me "if your well enough Fade why don't you go and see to the new prisoner".

I stood, still focusing on my thoughts from before was I doing the right thing and if not how could I change. This was all I knew. I arrived in the prison chamber and in a fairly clean cell was a hedgehog of a rusty brown color with a cream colored stripe and quill tips. He looked up his eyes dull and emotionless he muttered one question to me "why are you here?"

my response was short but all I could to say "I don't Know"

he laughed and spoke again "wow you really are a tool of his aren't you"

I flared up "WHO ARE YOU TO SAY SUCH THING TO ME PRISONER!"

He just snickered at this and said "my name is hunter not prisoner and you sure are sensitive about that subject"

he paused and continued "if you hate it so much the why not change it after all you're like me aren't you?"

I just stopped and glared at him. He was right I too was a hedgehog not one of eggman's machines. I looked down at my black gloves purple fur and orange shoes. I felt my purple and red quills and knew this young hedgehog was right there were better things for me to do.

My response came "I..I.. don't know anything else"

he stared at me with pity I couldn't blame him. He said "tell ya what get me out of here and I'll Help you find your path."

No sooner did his sentence end than I was blasting the bars of his cell with my power over chaos.

"hehe thanks now we can get to my end of the deal" Hunter said in the calmest manner I think he could muster.

"one thing I need to grab my friend from the manufacturing bay and my experiment from my quarters." I replied.

"no problem but we'll last longer if we work together." responded my new comrade

"heh…. You might be right there c'mon no time to lose" I half-laughed

Together we made it out of the prison chambers but outside those walls the egg carrier became much more hazardous to traitors and escapees. Not twenty yards from the entrance we were spotted.

"TRAITOR… TRAITOR… TRAITOR…attempting to release the prisoner… targets are to be apprehended and destroyed as stated by eggman law."

Hunter was sweating bullets "I can fight but those alpha units are the reason I was in that cell to begin with…"

After those words he trailed of into a trance of some kind. He had obviously lost a great deal of his courage being kept prisoner here. Well it didn't matter to me.

"I'M NOT EGGMANS LACKEY ANY MORE!" I yelled as a door opened to reveal an oil stained sword

"I was wondering when you'd decide to ditch this place c'mon lets give these junk heaps a little tune up." Kage said

He really was and still is one of my closest friends. Who'd of guessed I'd befriend a bio-lizard rebuild. Now he's not a complete rebuild Espio is to thank for his appearance. Kage is a red chameleon with black skin and a black horn. Unlike his DNA donor he chose the path of a samurai using his massive katana to cleave through most foes.

"Time for a meltdown you tin cans" Kage muttered having been knocked back by one of their massive arms.

"Hang on" I said

"don't even bother I've got these go on get the E-Zoid from you room" Kage boasted

His words reassured me that he was strong enough to handle this situation.

"Just make sure I find you in one piece" was all I could reply with.

He laughed and we parted ways.

I was Eggman's slave no more.
