Hey, people! I'm bAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaack!

Here's the first part of Sonic's story. He might seem a little out of character here, but just as an excuse to bring [SPOILER CENSORED] into it!

Thanks to the reviewers!

Chaos: Good to see you, too! I certainly hope it's interesting. Of course you know who it is. I'd be surprised if anyone didn't.

Storm: Yes, yes he does.

Blackie: The static was me cutting it off when the readers wouldn't leave. Zap nickname count: 21. I think I know why you put "mysterious person" in quotes...

Strife: Of course he used a Pokémon move, he [SPOILER CENSORED]! I was going for something similar to Sonic Unleashed, but not exactly like it.

Alright, like I said before the prologue, I won't post any more disclaimers on this story. This is the last time I will mention it.

*puts fingertips together and bows slightly at the camera* Enjoy.

The next day, Sonic was going for a run when he spotted the Egg-o-Matic flying overhead. He thought about following, but thought better of it; while he was the fastest thing alive, he wasn't exactly the stealthiest. Stealthy was slow. He went to the Chaotix Detective Agency to seek out a certain purple chameleon.

As he arrived, papers flew everywhere, startling Vector the Crocodile and Charmy Bee, who jumped into fighting stances. As soon as they saw who it was, they relaxed. Espio, the aforementioned chameleon, was in the corner of the room, leaning with his back against the wall and his eyes closed, his yellow horn reflecting the light from the overhead lamp hanging from the ceiling.

"What can we do for you, Sonic?" he asked.

"I just saw Eggman flying overhead. I'm the fastest, for sure, but I'd be too easily noticed if I followed him. Not that I can't handle whatever he throws at me!" Sonic replied.

Immediately, Charmy got excited at the chance to fight Eggman. "Ohboyohboyohboy!"

Vector, who had sat back down at the desk, got up and prepared to leave.

Espio opened his eyes and turned to the group. "Sorry, Charmy, but you and Vector would be too easily detected as well. I should go alone."

Vector looked taken aback. "But, Espio! We're a tea-"

He was cut off by Espio lifting a gloved hand. "I know, but we haven't seen Eggman for a while. He's probably got something big planned. Like I said: y-"

It was Espio's turn to be interrupted, this time by an upset Charmy flying in his face. "All the more reason for us to go with you!"

Espio was silent for a minute.

"Fine, but I'll take the lead on this one."

Charmy did a loop in mid-air.

"Sonic, show us where you saw Eggman."

Sonic took them to where he was when he spotted Eggman, as well as tell them the direction he was heading.

Sonic had gone to Tails' workshop. Neither his friend nor the Tornado could be seen, so Sonic assumed that Tails had taken it up, probably to test some new gadget.

Sonic let himself in and helped himself to a snack. He was staying here, after all.

He was reclining on the couch when there was a knock on the door. He answered it to find Team Chaotix. They told him what happened and showed them the scans using Tails' computer. They were examining the map when they heard the sound of a plane, then an explosion and a crash. Sonic, Espio, Charmy and Vector ran out to find the smoking wreck of a red, two-seater bi-plane, propeller-down, crunched up, blackened and on the ground.

The Tornado.

Sonic stared in horror until he heard the distinct sound of twin tails spinning like a propeller coming down behind him. He turned around to see Tails, slightly scratched up and bruised, but in one piece.

"Hi, Sonic!" he panted.

"I think that's enough flying for today, buddy!"

"You think? Now I need to rebuild it. It's a good thing it crashed here; otherwise I'd need to find a way to drag it."

"Let's worry about that later. The Chaotix over there found something interesting in Eggman's base."

As they went inside, they didn't realize that Sonic was being watched by a pair of green eyes from a nearby bush.

You can now play as Team Chaotix!

Hmm... creepy stalker. I'm fairly certain you all know who that is...

Anyway, there's the first part of Sonic's story; I hope you all enjoyed it!
