Just wanted to thank you all for the support so far. With that said, let's get back to the action.

Screaming. The shrieks could pierce through the toughest barrier. The endless screaming and panic followed by the sound of gunshots and collision.

That's when the roar came, they backed away in fear and then...

Ghuahh!

Miles awakes in shock, gasping for air, his heart pounding to the point he could hear it.

The aching pain in his body was growing the more he woke, picking himself off the ground, his bones cracked with each little movement made.

Miles winced, taking each one slowly and carefully.

His clothes were torn and his body covered in bruises.

He powered through the pain and began making his way to the road, taking the scenery in of his surroundings.

He had awoken in the woods outside of town, but in a strange occurrence a majority of the forest's trees had been knocked down and torn from the ground.

Once he found the main road, he flinched at the sight of a destroyed vehicle, crushed beyond repair, ripped apart in two.


Later.

Miles had made his way home, entering the bathroom to clean himself up.

Upon washing his face, as he looks up, looking at his reflection, to his horror finding a creature beyond belief.

The creature looks back at him, mimicking his movements, almost as if it's him, until the creatures expression turns to one of rage, it's arm breaking through the mirror, gripping Miles by his neck.

"Puny fox." The creature says before pulling him through the mirror.

Ring! Ring!

He finds himself cowering against the wall, shielding himself with his arms as the phone ring breaks him out of his illusion.

He looks around to see his bathroom in tact.

Picking himself up, he looks to the mirror with caution and to his relief, all he sees himself.

Exiting the bathroom, he answers the phone, only to be shouted at.

"Prower! Where have you been?! I've been calling your residence for hours!" His superior ranted on the other end of the line.

"Sorry sir, rough night." Miles said, still wincing from his bruises.

"Get down here now or your terminated!" His superior ordered before hanging up.

Miles sighed, grabbing his equipment and heading out for his lab.


Chaos Energy Research Lab.

Upon returning to his lab, he was met with familiar destruction.

His chamber had been shattered, his research burned to ash and the emerald, once lively green shade now dulled and gray.

"A real shame isn't it?" A voice called out from behind him.

Tails turned to find someone he did not recognize.

"Can I help you?" Miles asks.

"I hope so, my name is Nack Weasel, I'm a reporter, are you Tails Prower?" Nack asks.

Miles chuckles at his childhood nickname.

"It's Miles Prower and yeah that would be me." He says.

"Mr. Prower your research is on chaos energy, correct?" Nack questions.

"That is correct." Tails states.

"Could you tell me, what was the cause of this destruction?" Nack continues.

Miles stops as his focus slips, resulting in fragmented memories flashing before his eyes.

"Dr. Prower?" Nack says curiously.

"Sorry, blacked out there for a second." Miles says, snapping out of it.

Nack takes down notes much to Miles' worry and slight annoyance.

"As I asked before, what caused the destruction of your lab?" Nack asks again.

"I'm not sure, I wasn't here when it happened." Miles said, his tone growing nervous.

Nack took notice of this and jotted down more notes.

"Do you think the wreckage done here is related to The Hulk?" Nack questions him further.

Miles raises an eyebrow in confusion.

"The what?" He says, unknowing.

"You aren't aware, are you?" Nack says, guiding Miles out to the hall.

Down the hall, Miles witnesses two officers questioning the labs security guards and a random family of hedgehogs.

"Yeah, he was huge, he destroyed the lab and broke down the door with a punch." One of the guards said.

"We saw him too, we were driving down the road and suddenly he just came crashing down in the middle of it, he was gigantic and his skin was green, he let out this awful roar, the roaring broke our windows, we got out of the car, my husband grabbed the gun from the trunk and shot at him, but the bullets just bounced right off, after that the monster grabbed the car and tore it apart." The hedgehog woman retold her story, her child clinging on to her.

The officers shrugged, they hadn't believed the idea of this Hulk, but they knew something was out there after all the damage it caused.

"So what happened after the car?" One of the officers asked.

"He ran off into the woods, he knocked a lot of the trees out I the ground, I'm sure you can track him down there." The hedgehog man said, still holding his gun, ready to take down that monster at a moments notice.

Miles upon hearing everything, started to grow ill at the idea that he might be responsible for all this.

"Dr. Prower?" Nack asks.

"I'm sorry Mr. Weasel, but I can't answer any of your questions." Miles says, immediately hurrying away.

Tails rushed to the bathroom stall, becoming sick as he heaved in air.

Moments later he exited the bathroom, only to be met by the last people he wanted to see, his superiors.

"Dr. Prower, thank you for coming, we have a matter of urgency to discuss with you." One of them said, guiding him back to the board room.

They all sat down, as images flashes against the wall.

"As we are all aware, last night we had an incident in one of our labs, namely yours, Dr. Prower." He says, pointing to Miles.

"Now recent reports have stated that some type of creature is responsible for the wreckage, the media is already having a field day with this one, once they learn he attacked on of our labs they'll dub us responsible for this absurdity." He continued.

"Dr. Prower, it has come to our attention that your research may be of use to us." He said.

"How so sir?" Tails asks.

"As you can see by our scales, when the alleged attack took place, there was an immense increase in chaos energy, we propose that your research may help us in studying this phenomenon and if this creature does exist, help in its capture for scientific research." He stated.

Miles has a sense of panic in the back of his mind, for unknown reasons, yet deep down he knew his instincts were trying to warn him if the impending danger.

He simply agrees and is dismissed.

Miles returns to his lab, grabbing the Chaos Emerald and returning home to conduct his research.

Miles lays the emerald in his bed, taking a seat and simply staring at it, wondering what events had occurred the previous night.

An idea hit him, taking a sample of his blood, he placed it under the microscope to find his cells had been altered dramatically.

They radiated energy in line with the emeralds.

In a way, they had been improved, just as he hoped his experiments would lead to.

However, soon enough, he would see the full extent of its abilities.

Soon enough the day gave way to the night.

Miles had decided to get some much needed rest.

However his sleep would be disturbed.

Outside two individuals began to argue.

Miles looked outside his window to see Rouge, his neighbor, arguing and trying to get away from her ex-boyfriend, Knuckles.

Miles sighed, closing the window and headed out to settle this.

"I told you to stay away from me." Rouge said, backstepping further and further.

"Come on babe, take me back, it'll be fun." Knuckles says smirking and chuckling, obviously out of it.

"She said to stay away." Miles told him.

Knuckles turns, looking at the fox before laughing.

"Or what?" Knuckles taunts.

Miles takes a step forward, throwing the first punch only for it to be caught by Knuckles.

Knuckles smirks and punches Miles in the gut, knocking the wind out of him before punching him in the face, knocking Miles to the ground.

Miles tries to pick himself back up but halfway, Knukcles winds up his kick and hits him in his side before throwing him threw the window.

Knuckles turns back to Rouge with a sick smile on his face.

"Now, where were we?" He says.

Rouge trembles, fearing the worst.

However unknown to them, Knuckles had made the biggest mistake of his life.

From inside, Tails had layed there in intense pain, his anger and frustration growing until finally…it was unleashed.
