A hidden forest known as Knothole was where the freedom fighter's hidden base was, to stay hidden and fight the evil DR. Robotnick from taking over the whole world, but Robotnik was not the threat right now, a former fighter was, who had strange rings on his wrist's, and a girl and a huge teenager was fighting by him, while two strange people in hoods watched from the tree's.
The fighter's greatest fighter's Sonic and Sally were trying to get the better of the girl, but the former fight kept saying directions to her.
"Left, Left, Right, Duck, Jump, upper side" he said.
"upper side?" Sonic said as the girl kicked his upper side, making him fly into a tree, and he fell to the ground, not able to move.
"Sonic" Princess Sally Acorn said. "Back:" The boy said.
Sally gasped as the girl kicked her in the back, making her fall, not being able to move to.
The fighter's were down, struggling to get back up, after the boy told the girl and the big teen to hit certain points on them, paralyzing them.
"Pressure points, are great for defense, but now, With the power of the chaos emerald and the power ring, I can make them form a ancient item, The Chaos ring, the power's are unknown, and you all get to see what it does" The boy said, The boy was Colin Prower Tail's little brother, after going missing, he seemed out of his mind, attacking his friends and saying he doesn't know them.
"d...don't do it, you don't know what would happen" Sally said, struggling to speak, as Colin took a power ring off his wrist, and put the Emerald into the ring, as the earth shook, within seconds a strange black and purple void appeared, and the whole earth began shaking.
"What's going on" Sonic said, the earth shaking like crazy.
"Boss, what's that void doing" The teen asked.
"It's growing bigger" Colin said, watching the void grow and flash bright lights, blinding everyone for a second.
"Why did you take that emerald" Bunnie Rabbot asked someone she saw as a little brother.
"I want to help my team, and your small group got in the way of the goal" Colin said.
"G, guy's the rader is going crazy" Rotor said.
"There's a ton of negative energy in it" Tails said.
"A, as your superior, I command you to stop it" Antoine D'Coolette said, as the young boy laughed.
"If you were my superior, then how can I beat you" Colin said as the void grew and the earth went crazy.
"What's going on to the planet" Amy Rose asked, as Colin said the last word, making everyone shocked
"This place is going to be gone, the void is gonna destroy it any second" Colin said, as the void grew more big.
As they started telling him to stop it, he said one more thing.
"Cho" they heard him say, as him snapped his finger making him and the four kids vanished, along with the Chaos ring.
As the freedom fighter's watching as the void sucked things in, and flashing bright lights. Every animal in the forest watched as the end came.
4 MONTHS EARLIER
FREEDOM KIDS CHAPTER 1: FORMATION AND DESTRUCTION
Someone in a Cloak was walking through a cave, with someone following him, as they came to a tablet with jewels and rings on it.
"Master are you sure we're a part of this?" the small figure said.
"yes, you may not see it, but soon we'll be helping some special people, and special they are" the taller one said.
MEANWHILE AT THE SAME TIME
A two tailed fox was running through the forest, Colin Prower was on a Recon mission, since Princess Sally thought him being a secret messenger was the best.
*BZZZT* "C. o...lin... co... me.. in" His walkie talkie said, as he answered.
"Yes Princess Sally" he said, even through they were close like family, he didn't want to be treated like a kid anymore.
"How's the mission going?" She asked him.
"Fine, but I want a real mission, I'm not in training anymore, and I can fend for myself" He said as he walked.
"I know... but I just don't want you to hurt yourself, Robotnik's a dangerous man, and you could be a goner if he catches you" she said, as Colin saw some robot's setting up a machine.
"Is the pathway cleared?" Sally asked him.
"Yeah" Colin said, waiting for her answer.
"Okay, great, we'll set up a wavepoint their in about half an hour, see you there" She said ass she sighed off.
Colin decided to use this as a chance to proof he can fight, as he ambushed the robots.
He fought hard, not seeing the cliff he was fighting on was slowly cracking, he kept moving and punching, sending robot's flying into the tree. Getting the robot's to crash into the machine they were building, as he saw the Freedom FIghter's coming towards the location, the cliff broke, sending him falling down the huge cliff, the only thing below that the fighter's could see was water, but from that height, it could be deadly.
At the same time, a shapeshifter 6 year old Mimi was picking flower's for her dad, being shapeshifters was hard since animals didn't want to be near them. Mimi was happy and fine with not interacting with animals, but as she picked some that matched her hair, and body, lime green, she heard screaming from above, she saw something falling with rocks, and get close to a platform, she did the first thing that came to her mind, run to her village to get help.
"Dad" she said running up to him, as he kneeled down to her. "Yes sweetie" he said, seeing the look of fear on her face. "An animal was falling off the cliff, he might be in trouble" she said panting as her dad nodded. "Men come one, someone might be in trouble" He said as some of the strongest men there went to check it out.
Colin landed, not being able to move at all, feeling super weak,and that he might pass out, his hand was touching a helmet, he put it on. Right away, he felt stronger, but his eyes started to shut by then. Colin soon passed out, as he was picked up, and taken to the village, as Mimi saw him, she hoped he was okay.
(where am I) ... (Am I dead?)... (No, you wouldn't be thinking, but what can it be) ... (Will I wake up?) Colin thought while sleeping.
Mimi woke up again, it's been a week since they saved Colin, he had a scar on his forehead now, as Mimi sat by him, and gently rubbed his head as he groaned.
"Is he waking up" Mimi said to herself as she watched him carefully.
Colin's eyes started to open, as his vision got cleared he saw Mimi staring down at him.
"Hello" she said gently as he woke up. "Hi... who are you?" he asked.
"I'm Mimi, a shapeshifter, what's your name?" She asked, smiling.
"Mine's... I ... I don''t remember" He said, looking down.
"You must of lost your memory, you did hit your head" She said.
"Did you save me?" he asked looking up at her.
"Somewhat" she said smiling at him.
he hugged her saying thank you as she blushed at this, and she saw his underwear peaking out a little.
(Blue and white, with Teddy Bear's) she thought as she saw a name.
"Colin" she said, as he looked at her. "What" he said.
"Your name's Colin, your underwear say's that" she said, looking away blushing, but also finding it super cute.
He blushed, fixing his pants as she waited.
"So, you can shapeshift, what can you turn into?" he asked her.
"Into an animal/object, but me being alive makes it hard not not breath and i'm awful at pretending to be someone" Mimi said.
"No one's bad, you just need to practice, and your'll be great" he said smiling, causing MImi to smiled and hug him.
"Thanks, and I promise, i'll help you get your memories back" she said.
"Thank you Mimi" he said, feeling happy to meet someone this friendly.
As the day's went on, Colin didn't remember anything, but him and Mimi started training on her power's, and soon a Month passed.
Mimi was in Colin's form, as she studied how to act like him right way, getting the hang on acting like the person, as they did the same move, both smiling the same. "Good job Mimi, your doing great" Colin said as Mimi changed back. "Thanks, but I feel like i'm being a bad friend, not helping you get your memories back" Mimi said. "Don't worry, If I don't get my memories back, being with you is okay, i'm happy with you" He said, as they heard a loud bang come from her village, as the two ran towards the village.
"Whats ya mean my money's no good" a huge teen said, clearly upset that he can't buy anything. "I'm sorry sir, but that money is not a part of our town" the shopkeeper said, scared. The teenager smashed the table, more upset now.
"HEY...WOAH" Colin yelled at seeing the teen. "What you want pip squeak" The teen said.
"Why are you destroying my village?" Mimi asked him, hiding behind Colin a little after seeing the broken table. "I want to by something, and they won't let me" he said, balling up his hand into a fist. "That doesn't mean you destroy someone's table" Colin said as he saw the teen run at him.
Colin ducked and ran as the teen tried to hit Mimi. "No" Colin said as he formed a shield making the teen hit it.
The teen fell, rubbing his head as Colin stood there shocked. "What was that" Colin said as the teen ran at him again. "AHH" he eeked as his hands clapped together, causing an explosion to hit both of them, as smoke was all around them. Colin coughed as the teen grabbed his shirt, Colin quickly hit the teens neck with two of his fingers, the teen dropped him as he back up. He turned around around and saw himself.
"What the" he said rising his hand as the copy did the same, he build up a punch, and the copy eeked, changing back to Mimi as Colin jumped onto the person's back as the two went flying into a tree.
"Colin becareful" Mimi said as Colin struggled up as the teen did the same. Colin raised his hand, trying to rest it, not seeing something fly into the air, and fly at the teen when he moved his hand. Colin jumped at seeing him get hit by the item.
"Mister, just because your angry doesn't mean you have to hurt people" Mim said, sitting by the teen as he started to get up. "People don't think of me as someone that's important, i can't even fight right" he said.
"It's not that, you can, you just need to learn to control it and not go wild with strikes" Colin said sitting on the other side.
"Explain that copy and what was with all those strange things happening" the teen said. "Well I can turn into anyone, and the magic is something I don't know about" Mimi said, as Colin shrugged his shoulder's. "i don't know too" Colin said.
"So what's your name, Mines Mimi" MImi said, excited at the change of making a new friend.
"My names Solor" Solor said as Colin smiled too.
"Mine's Colin" he said as he got up, as Solor looked at him.
"Train with us, we can help you get better at timing punch's " Colin said as Mimi nodded.
Solor hesitated, but said okay, as the three started training, by the time a second month passed, Mimi was great at pretending to be someone else, Solor was much better at fighting, and Colin was understanding his magic more, while reading Colin looked through a book, he saw something about these power rings.
"Ancient items, being put together with the legendary Chaos Emerald, can from something special" Colin read out loud as Mimi listened to him read, happy he had found things to do, later they built a power ring tracker, but with them not understanding it well, they could only track one.
Putting on robed hoodies, and masks, the three went to where the tracker told them to go, seeing animals having an award ceremony,, "The Freedom Fighter awards?" Colin whispered, as the three looked on.
"Mimi, Solor, you go into the crowd, i'll go behind the stage, and see if I can find that ring" Colin said, as Mimi and Solor nodded.
The three splitted up, but as Colin got the signal, he head people complain about how Creepy Solor and Mimi looked, so Colin did the only thing that came to mind, make a tree fall through the stage, which he did.
Everyone backed up as the freedom fighter's stopped close, Seeing Colin on the tree, not knowing it was him because of the mask.
"Hey, don't destroy the trees" Sally said. "I bet he's working for Robotnik" Sonic said.
"Ro-who" Colin said as he saw some animals draw weapons.
"Who are you" Sally said, signaling for the fighter's to fire if he tried to attack.
"Who am I, well let me tell you" he said, as he snapped his fingers, making the ground shake
(Yeah!)
(Yo!)
(He appeared behind Sonic and pushed him)
I'm the tallest of mountains
I am the roughest of waves
(More of him appeared singing parts of the song)
I'm the toughest of terrors
I am the darkest of days
(one laid by Sonic)
I'm the last one that's standing,
Don't try to stand in my way,
(Another stood over him as other's went around the freedom fighter's)
Cause I've been up against better,
Just take a look at my face
(he said pointing to his mask, one side happy, the other sad)
Cause if you're messing with me,
I am a dangerous weapon
(he made spikes cout out of his finger's almost hitting Sonic, but stopped, and made them go away.)
I am the sharpest of blades
I'll cut you down in a second
(he held his head)
Cause I was born in this pain,
It only hurts if you let it,
So if you think you can take me
Then you should go and forget it
(he said crossing his arms, as a copy appeared behind Sonic again)
And after all this time, you're back for more
(he said as he shoved him)
(I won't stop until they know my name)
(a clone took the ring from Sonic's wrist, throwing it at him when it wasn't the right ring)
So I'll take what's mine and start this war
(I'm coming at you like a tidal wave, tidal wave, tidal wave)
(He threw something at the tree's making them start to go on fire, unknowing to everyone it was just a part of their minds, not being real)
When everything you know has come and gone,
(You are at your lowest, I am rising higher)
(He touches the forehead part of his mask.)
Only scars remain of who I was
(a clone appeared above the fire.)
(What I find in the ashes, you lose in the fire!)
When there's no one left to carry on,
(This is an illusion, open up your eyes and...)
(A clone shoves Sally)
This pain (persists),
(Then one shoves Tails)
I can't (resist),
(Colin appeared in front of Sonic)
But that's what it takes to re member
(Another Clone shoved Bunnie into a tree)
Yeah, so look around you
(a Clone laughs)
And tell me what you really see
I never end
(And that's the difference in you and me" he said looking at Sonic's eyes, smiling under his mask)
Cause when your time is up
And everything is falling down,
It's only me and you - who is gonna save you now?" (he said getting closer to sonic, for some reason, he was interested in this blue animal)
So look around you
And tell me what you really see
You live a lie
And that's the difference in you and me
(he sang, now in front of Sonic, as he tried to punch Colin vanished)
I have the power,
Let me show you what it's all about
It's only me and you - who is gonna save you now?
(a clone made more appear as Colin started to form a ball)
(Who is gonna save you now?)
The clones started making more fake fires and trees fall down as Mimi and Solor were looking for the ring)
I am the tallest of mountains
And don't you ever forget it
If you step in the ring,
Then you're gonna regret it.
(the clones started shoving the fighter's more, trying to mess with their heads)
(Take it)
Cause if you're messing with me,
Then you should know that it's over
I don't crumble for nothing
I've got the world on my shoulders
(Colin threw the ball into the ground after a few seconds of silence, making all the animals float into the air, and he teleported to Bunnie)
And after all this time, you're back for more
(I won't stop until they know my name)
So I'll take what's mine and start this war
(he sang as he took the power ring from Bunnie's gun, and put it on his wrist as he smiled he kicked Bunnie into a tree as more Clones appeared.
When everything you know has come and gone,
(You are at your lowest, I am rising higher)
Only scars remain of who I was
(His mask fell a little, showing his scar on his forehead, but not his face)
(What I find in the ashes, you lose in the fire)
(The clones were running circles around the fighter's)
When there's no one left to carry on,
(This is an illusion, open up your eyes and...)
(he holds his chest again)
This pain (persists),
I can't (resist),
But that's what it takes to rememberer (Yeah)
So look around you
And tell me what you really see
(he appeared in the middle, as he made shields block him from the gun shot's fired at him.
I never end
And that's the difference in you and me
Cause when your time is up
And everything is falling down,
It's only me and you - who is gonna save you now?
(he said looking at Sonic)
So look around you
And tell me what you really see
You live a lie
And that's the difference in you and me
(he was in front of Sonic again)
I have the power,
Let me show you what it's all about
It's only me and you - who is gonna save you now?
The clones started to run to Colin, going into him, as he finished singing, Solor and Mimi ran to him, with him saying these final words before the three just disappeared going away, with Bunnie's power ring.
(Who is gonna save you now?)
"Master, they did it like you said, the first power ring is collected" The small figure said
"Good, we should introduce our self's to those three, with the proper training, the'll be ready in no time" The big figure said, making a portal appear, as the two entered it.
Meanwhile The Freedom Kids got back to the village.
"Colin, were you serious about destroying trees" Mimi asked nervous.
"No, It was fake, I've practiced my magic, and I made it seem like trees were on fire, but in reality were not" Colin said
Mimi nodded, happy he didn't lie, knowing he wouldn't lie to her.
"Who are you two" Solor said.
Colin and Mimi looked at a tree and saw two figures in the tree, one in a white cloak, floating with a monocle and top hat, with a staff, and a smaller figure wearing a black robe, and glasses.
"I'm Blue...Count Blue" The tall one said, pulling his hat down. "I'm Magenta, k" the smaller one said.
"Your an interesting pair" Colin said siting down, looking at the ring.
"Power Ring, holds secret power's no one know's" Magenta said, as Blue floated them down.
"How did you know that?" Solor asked.
"We're, as you say special people, we've been around the world, and we want to help you" Blue said giving him a smile.
"We need to think it over" Colin said as Blue nodded, "Take all the time you need" Blue said.
"Do... you have a place... we can go,... we don't want to leave yet" Magenta said as Mimi nodded, taking them to a hut.
Later that night the three fighter's were asleep, mostly peaceful, but Colin kept moving, his mind going crazy.
(accept the invite) (your weak) (let me out and your show everyone what you can do) (do it do IT DO IT) (HAHAHAHAHA) (I'm getting closer to coming out) (When I come out everyone's doomed)
He sat up, tired and panting hard, he got up and Mimi looked at him.
"You okay?" she asked, getting up too.
"yeah... I want to accept their offer, if they know where another Chaos ring is, it can help us" Colin said, as Mimi hugged him.
"Do what you think is best, as long as you come out safe, i'm with you" Mimi said, as Colin smiled, both looking at the sky. Mimi looked at him and for a second, she thought his eyes were green, when she blinked his eyes were blue, their normal color, and she smiled.
The next day Colin and Mimi went to where Count Blue and Magenta were, they both were sitting there, Blue looked up, his yellow eyes and mouth started at them from the darkness in his cloak.
"Hello young children, have you thought of my offer?" He asked floating up a little.
"Yes, we accept your help" Colin said.
"Great, you won't regret it" Magenta said.
"Yes, with out help your power ring will be 7 sooner then you think" Blue said.
As a month passed with the three fighter's learning about magic from Blue, Magenta found the second power ring location, having the blue one, she said she found another one, and gave Colin the location, as him, Mimi, and Solor went there, seeing a huge road.
"HEY" they heard a voice yell
They turned, lucky wearing their masks, seeing Sonic and Sally their, with a monitor.
"Cleaver Blue one, making a radar for the rings, based on the energy from that Rabbit's one" Colin said, as Sonic galred at seeing the ring on the fox's wrist
"Give me that ring" Sonic said, as Sally warned him to be careful.
Colin's watched beeped and he looked up, seeing a cart fly by on a rail.
"THe ring's there, RUN" Colin yelled to his friends. and they started running, with Sonic running after them.
"Colin are you-WOAH" Mimi yelled when Sonic ran by her.
"Right he's one of the fastest thing's alive, let's see how fast he really is" Colin said, as they ran after him.
They say a wall, with two holes, Sonic spin dashed, as Colin told Mimi to slide, Solor wasn't gonna make it, "T-1" Colin said to Solor, as he threw him, and Colin raised his arms, being straight, he went through the hole, and ran by Sonic now from the distance he got.
"I'm not letting you get another ring" Sonic said turning to Colin, and saw he was gone.
"What" he said said as he ran, he looked back a few seconds later, and saw a copy of him.
"WHAT THE" he yelled as the copy kicked him, and transformed back into Mimi as Colin flew to the car and grabbed the ring.
"Come on" Colin said, as he grabbed Mimi's hand and the two ran to Solor as they disappeared, as Sonic was upset and angry they got the better of him in a race.
"Good job on getting the Red Power Ring" Blue said, pulling his monocle up a little.
"Okay, so I think your next goal besides practicing your power's is find a Chaos Emerald, K" Magenta said as Colin nodded.
as more time went by Colin was great at using base magic and fighting, Solor was more level headed and Mimi learned how to fake people out more, at this point they called themself the "Freedom Kids". Colin was having trouble focusing when Mimi got hurt when he felt angry and he felt pain as he saw it, but she always got up before he went full insane. With Blue and Magenta the group of fived was formed, as Blue found the Chaos Emerald, in Metropolis.
They went there, and saw Robot's all over the place.
"Robot's?" Colin asked.
"Oops, Sorry, meant to tell you that this place is full of bots" Magenta said. "Great" Colin sarcastically said. As they saw the Freedom Fighter's fighting Robotnik, with a jem under Robotnik's pod.
"Stay here and wait for me" Colin said, as he floated down and got close to the pod, using his power's to get the gem, is when robot's noticed him.
"INTRUDER ALERT, INTRUDER ALERT" Sirens went off, as Colin ran back, with robot's right behind him, they ran into the woods, running for an hour, Colin, Mimi, and Solor stopped, panting, as Blue and Magenta watched from a tree, when A blast from a gun almost hit Mimi.
Colin blocked it, making a part of his mask fall off, showing his scar, as the three looked seeing The freedom fighter's there.
"Well, I guess we didn't think this through, since we are at your hideout" Colin said, as more guns were aimed at them.
"Take off the mask" someone said to him.
"Fine, I have nothing to hide" he said, undoing the rope, making his mask fall, showing his face.
The freedom fighter's stood there shocked at seeing it was Colin.
"Cat got your tongue, it doesn't matter, I got what we needed" he said, showing the jem as someone shot at his hand making him drop it as animals ran at him.
Solor started hitting some, keeping them back, as Sally told everyone to split up to take them down.
Tails went to Mimi, and used his tails to grab her mask and pulled it off, showing her face, and revealing to everyone there she was a girl.
"Y your a girl" Tails said shocked at this, Mimi stared at him, her eye's going wide, as she realized she was exposed, she shoved him to the ground and ran as some fighter's ran after her.
Colin smiled, as he ducked pouches. and made three finger's grow, hitting Rotor and Bunnie with it, as he smiled more, he hit Rotor's side and Bunnie's neck, making them fall as Tails ran to him.
"You look like me" Colin said smiling at this, as Tails didn't want to hurt his brother.
"Tails" he heard Amy said, as she ran to him, he looked at her and he was hit with her hammer, as Amy giggled, turning back into Mimi.
"Good job" Colin said, as he jumped, pulling her up with him.
The two flew and Colin threw a red ball, scanning everyone, he then started telling Solor some area's to hit fighter's, as he turned, him and Mimi were hit to the ground by Sonic.
Colin flew back up telling Mimi and Solor directions , Solor getting fighter's down great, even stopping Amy Rose's hammer and hitting her weak point, making her fall.
Colin landed, putting his hand on the ground, and heard Tails running up to him. He jumped and hit Tail a little hard as he smiled at stopping another fighter.
"Left, Left, Right, Duck, Jump, upper side" Colin said said.
"upper side?" Sonic said as Mimi kicked his upper side, making him fly into a tree, and he fell to the ground, not able to move.
"Sonic" Sally said. "Back" Colin said.
Sally gasped as Mimi kicked her in the back, making her fall, not being able to move to.
The fighter's were down, struggling to get back up, as Colin picked the jem back up smiling.
"Pressure points, are great for defense, but now, With the power of the chaos emerald and the power ring, I can make them form a ancient item, The Chaos ring, the power's are unknown, and you all get to see what it does" Colin said as he undid the blue Chaos ring on his right wrist and held the Green Chaos Emerald
he was met with everyone saying no to him, but he ignored it as this was what his team went for, as he got the emerald and put it into the ring,making a void appear as the clock tower bell started ringing. The void growing fast and making everything started falling.
"What's going on" Sonic said, the earth shaking like crazy.
"Boss, what's that void doing" Solor asked.
"It's growing bigger" Colin said, watching the void grow and flash bright lights, blinding everyone for a second.
"Why did you take that emerald and what is that void" Bunnie asked.
"I want to help my team, and your small group got in the way of the goal" Colin said.
"G, guy's the rader is going crazy" Rotor said.
"There's a ton of negative energy in it, this isn't good" Tails said.
"A, as your superior, I command you to stop it" Antoine said, as Colin laughed.
"If you were my superior, then how can I beat you" Colin said as the void grew and the earth went crazy.
"What's going on to the planet" Amy Rose asked, as Colin said something, making everyone shocked
"This place is going to be gone, the void is gonna destroy it any second" Colin said, as the void grew more big.
As they started telling him to stop it, as he smiled at them
"You think I did all of this just to stop it. I'm not idiot" He said, his eye's changing color a tiny bit from Blue to a blue-green. "You shouldn't have messed with us, and now you'll see what the Chaos Ring can do" he said as everyone watched, shocked at what he said.
"Cho" they heard him say, as him snapped his finger making him and the four kids vanished, along with the Chaos ring.
As the freedom fighter's watching as the void sucked things in, and flashing bright lights. Every animal in the forest watched as they started to feel themselves be pulled in, nothing stopping the void from ending the world.
