AN: An extra chapter this weekend because I know I need a few chapters to know if I'm interested in a story or not. I'll try and update weekly after this.

Chapter 1:

Queen Aleena watched her children on the monitors of her command center. She had spent many hours here, watching them grow in strength and love. She longed to be with them personally, to be able to finally embrace them again. But she couldn't risk moving too soon, or all their work would be for nothing. For now, she settles for the screens and the brief glimpses of them in person. A noise from behind her drew her from her thoughts. She whirled around holding the gun she had for her protection. When she got a glimpse of familiar green figure in a purple cloak, Queen Aleena relaxed.

"Oracle," She greeted, putting her gun away. "What is it? Has something happened?"

"Nothing to worry about," the Oracle of Delphinus. "In fact, what I have to say will bring you great joy. The time has finally come for you to reunite with your children."

"It has," Queen Aleena said in breathless happiness. She suddenly felt very weak from joy, a smile glowing on her face. But then something occurred to her that focused her attention back on the Oracle. "What about this strange figure that's been following my children? Is he a threat?"

"There is no need to worry," the Oracle said with a knowing smile. "Though you have never met him, you are actually quite familiar with him. He is no threat to us and will only aid our cause."

"Thank you Oracle," Queen Aleena said with a nod. The Oracle nodded in return and disappeared in a swirl of green mist. She turned back to the smile. She had somethings to prepare, but she would finally be with her children.

"Another job well done," Sonic bragged as he reclined in a chair in the van, plucking lazily at his guitar. His sister, Sonia, was driving while his brother, Manic, was observing the monitors for any patrolling bots. They had just finished as supply raid with other resistance members and were heading to another city to free the resistance members that were being held there. Just another day in the life of Sonic Underground.

"While that may be true, we still need to be careful," Sonia commented. "You've been getting cocky lately and if you keep it up, we'll end up in serious trouble."

"Hey, I can't help it if I'm awesome," Sonic retorted with a grin. "Don't worry sis, I won't let anything bad happen."

"And that's the attitude I'm worried about," Sonia muttered.

"Guys I've been thinking," Manic spoke up, turning away from the monitors.

"Well that's dangerous," Sonic couldn't help but joke. Manic rolled his eyes and ignored his brother.

"Has it been easier lately then normal?" He asked.

"What do you mean Manic?" Sonia asked.

"Well, it seems like there are less robots that face us then normal. When we scout out areas, we find pieces of sentry bots, but no sign of who fought them. This last time, I could have sworn there was a sniper bot that had been about to get us and then it suddenly exploded. I don't know... it's almost like someone is helping us."

"But who could it be?" Sonia wondered. "Other resistance members?"

"No, they would have revealed themselves," Manic replied. "Do you think it could be someone that works for mom?"

"That's possible," Sonia agreed.

"I think your both thinking too much," Sonic said. "If someone is helping us, it's better just not to question it. Besides, it could just be your imagination and your getting yourselves worked up for nothing."

"But Sonic..." Manic was cut off as the ground exploded in front of the van. Sonia swerved, throwing Sonic and Manic from their seats, and the van skidded to a stop.

"Swat bots!" Sonia yelled, getting up from her seat.

"Kind of guessed that one sis," Sonic replied, getting up and helping Manic up. "There's no time to waist! We got some bots to scrap!"

Chaos Sonic sat on a cliff edge, watching the siblings van drive by below him. He had been in this universe for about two weeks, helping out the siblings out from the background whenever they needed it. It was hard for him, not tho be in the midst of the battle, but he knew that wasn't his job anymore. This world was different but also so alike his own. It was fun to watch this younger version of himself battle Robotnik. While Chaos Sonic had dabbled with a guitar, he had never really done anything with it. This world's Sonic though was not only constantly playing and singing, but it was also one of his main weapons. And of course this Robotnik had the same goals as his Eggman, world domination. This one just was a lot more successful with the roboticizer. Chaos Sonic was glad he had been able to stop his Eggman from be able to use it to much. Chaos Sonic shivered slightly at the thought of his friends being turned into machines.

Of course the biggest thing that drew Chaos Sonic's attention was the fact this Sonic had siblings and a mom that they would soon be with. Chaos Sonic never really had any family outside of Tails and he wondered how things would be different if he had siblings. Of course, this world didn't seem to have a Tails, or Amy, or any of his friends besides Knuckles. Sonic was grateful that he had his friends and he wouldn't give them up for anything. Speaking of his friends, he wondered what they were...

Sonic. Purity's gentle but slightly reproving voice brought Chaos Sonic out of his thoughts. You're supposed to be meditating.

Sorry, Sonic replied. I'm not used to sitting still for long periods of time. This is still new to me.

It's alright Sonic. You can take a break, but do try again soon. Meditating is the best way for you to get used to your new powers.

I know, Sonic replied. With a sigh he laid back on the ledge and held his hand up in front of him. He examined the emerald on the back of it, looking like it was apart of the glove when really it was fused with his flesh. The slowly swirling rainbow colors were a perfect match with his eyes. He could feel the energy from the emerald and all the others fused to his body pulsing through him like a second heartbeat. Yet, though he could feel his power, he couldn't use it. At least, not without making several large new craters. He couldn't access or expel his powers safely. Putting his hand down, Sonic sat up and began to meditate again, knowing Purity was right.

After sometime, Sonic felt a sift in his energy, particularly from the emeralds in his hands. Curious, Sonic opened his eyes and found a glowing barrier around him and the emeralds in his hands glowing brighter then normal. A heartbeat later, the glow dimmed and the barrier faded from existence. Sonic smiled at the discovery and was about try again when a boom sounded through the air. Sonic jumped to his feet and looked around. He spotted the van containing the royal siblings under attack by an army of robots. Without a moments hesitation, Sonic jumped forward and ran to the battle to help.

AN: Hope you enjoyed it and let me know what you think! See you next week!
