"10 years?!" Sonic shouted in surprised. Older Tails nodded with his ears still down.
"Sadly true. All this time, we thought you were dead. Both Shadow and Silver said that you died from a bright light in a temple." The fox explained.
"Sonic, remember those hieroglyphs about those two squirrels?" Konton asked his light self. Then the hero remembered those images.
"Ya you're right! And the text said: Once you step into the magic circle, your negative will turn into a positive and will stay that way." The blue blur explained. Tails snapped his fingers, getting what it means.
"Of course! Konton is full of negative energy and you're positive so Konton can go in you. Think of it like a magnet, both the positive and negative sticks together, like you two. But that light made your outer body positive so you couldn't go back into Sonic." Tails explained.
"Oh that's what it meant. Man I hate riddles." Sonic commented with his arms crossed.
"Could you tell me why I have a body when I come out of my watch?" Nicole asked with her coming out of the watch to show her ghostly body.
"With the help of science, the future made almost every robot a body." Older Tails explained the lynx.
"Does anyone want anything to drink?" Sonic quickly turned to see Metal Sonic standing right next to him, with a smile.
"Metal!" The blue hero quickly pinned the metal copy on the wooden floors.
"Is there something wrong?" Metal asked with a confused look.
"Sonic, it's okay." Tails get Sonic off of the robot.
"How is it okay? One of Egghead's goons is here want to know if we want something to drink! Wait what?" The hero said with so much confusion.
"I'm sorry for if I'm trouble." Metal apologized and bowing.
"You're not in trouble. You can get us water." The fox said then Metal went to the kitchen.
"Hey Tails, can you fill me in about this?" Sonic asked his older friend.
"Well shortly after you "died", Eggman took over the planet...For a day. He was bored that no one that's strong as you couldn't defeat him for fun. After that, he gave Metal away and I made him an assistant." Tails explained as Metal gives everyone a bottle of water.
"At least this planet isn't like a wasteland. Anyways, how's everyone during this 10 years?" The blue hedgehog asked before drinking the water.
"Oh there's a lot of stuff: Knuckles and Rouge married, Amy joined G.U.N, Charmy is in charge of the detective agency with Cream. Silver and Blaze married and have two kids, Shadow have a silver left eye and adopted a dog-"
"Hold up. Shadow have a what on his left eye?" Sonic said in confusion.
"Three years ago, Shadow was on a mission but he got kidnapped. Silver went to find him, but he said he found Shadow in an abandon building with bruises and an bleeding eye. The reason why he have a silver eye because the Black arms can grow back missing limbs. Like a lizard but every growing limbs is different from the Black arms. Since Shadow is part Black arm, he have a replacement eye." Tails explained the whole story.
"Wow, heavy." The blue hero commented.
"Stop saying slang like that, no one says that anymore." Konton said with his arms crossed and floating off the ground.
"Hey I got an idea. How about we use the medal to get us back home?" Nicole suggested.
"Oh ya, you're right!" Sonic said then grabbed the medal from his quills.
"I don't see how a medal can help you get back to the present." Older Tails said with his eyes half-closed.
"This medal might be the reason why we're here in the first place." Sonic inserted the medal into the watch then a dark black light appeared.
"Wasn't the portal bright?" The dark hedgehog pointed out. They look at the portal and saw a puppy growling and charges at a shadowed figure that was holding a gun. A figure with black eyes and glowing red eyes from a mirror and then someone punched the mirror. A shadowed female hedgehog got hit by something which made her fall from a cliff that was behind her. A chao runs to a rabbit girl but a figure of a wolf came out and stabbed through the chao with its claws. Two unidentified Mobians were on their knees while a chameleon bleeds to death. A normal wolverine was disappearing while another wolverine cries. But the worst was shown, it was Sonic himself on the ground with blood pouring out from his chest.
"W-What the hell?" Then the portal glitches and a loud screech made everyone cover their ears. Nicole released the medal to close the portal and the medal hit the floor.
"What was that about?" Tails asked with the ringing in his ears disappears.
"Well the medal plan isn't going to work." Metal came out from the front door with a dirty capsule.
"I found this outside and it says Sonic's name on it." The assistant robot gave the capsule to the blue hedgehog. Sonic opened to see a note.
Dear Sonic,
You gotta find a way out of the future. If you don't then time will mess up again.
The reason is that a person from the present shouldn't be in the future. Because the person will disappear in the timeline and a being will kill that person.
Don't be an idiot and find a way to get back to the present before everything will go to hell.
From,
Shadow and Silver.
Both Sonic and Tails looked at each other.
"Is there another way to get back to the present?" Sonic asked.
"No...I have no fucking clue." Tails said while his ears dropped.
"Language, please." The blue blur said with an annoyed look.
"I'm 22 and I could swear whenever I want." The older fox said with his eyes half-closed. Konton floated over to his light self
"You, Shadow and Silver saved time once so this time won't be different." The dark Sonic said.
"Well ya but those two are not here...But." Sonic turned to Tails.
"Where can I find Shadow and Silver?" He asked with a smirk.
Sonic and Konton arrived to Spagonia about 20 minutes. They peeked down from a rooftop to see an older Shadow still wearing the jacket and have a silver left eye, an older Silver wearing the coat and have a wedding ring, under their feet was a normal 6 month old German Shepard with blue eyes. The three were walking through the cobble streets and the hedgehogs were talking. Both Sonic and Konton jumped down to an alley and Sonic got an idea.
"Hey Konton, I have a funny idea." Sonic whispered the idea in the dark hedgehog's ear and nodded. Konton floated to the two hedgehogs
"I'm a ghost of Sonic! I came back from the underworld for unfinished business. And that's you two!" The dark hedgehog said with a booming voice.
"This is so fucking dumb..." Konton thought while hearing Sonic's silent laugh when Silver yelp in fear.
"Oh my chaos! Please forgive us for laughing at you when you had braces! We're so sorry!" Older Silver apologized. The German Shepard rushed towards the ghost, barking at him.
"Wait what?" Sonic came out of the alley.
"Two Sonics? What is going on?!" The time traveler shouted.
"No I'm alive, really." The blue hero said with his hands on his chest.
"If you're alive all this time, then how come you haven't aged a day?" Older Shadow asked while scratching his head in confusion.
"Well I'm from the past or maybe present? Anyways, while that light hit on me, I fell through the time portal. And that's why I'm here." Sonic explained.
"But who's that other Sonic?" Silver asked pointing at Konton who was petting the puppy.
"Oh that's Konton, my dark side. But he's good." The blue hero informed the two other hedgehogs.
"Um nice to meet you, Konton." The black hedgehog greeted to Konton.
"Nice to meet you physically. By the way, cute dog you got." The dark hedgehog said while the puppy licks his face.
"Thanks. His name Lucky and I'm training him to a G.U.N dog." Shadow informed as Konton sets the German Shepard down.
"Wait, if someone from the present came to the future," Silver's eyes widened in realization "We gotta get you back to your timeline immediately!" The silver hedgehog shouted.
"Yes I know. Your past selves sent me a note about it. That's why we came to you two."
"How come he can't be in the future?" The old ultimate life form asked.
"Because then his future self won't exist and the timeline will mess up! I don't know if this is real or not but there's a legend that kills anyone who mess up time. It's name is Jikan-Tori." (Jikan means time and Tori means bird in Japanese)
"Jikan-Tori?" Sonic, Shadow and Konton said together with confusion.
"Jikan-Tori was created when Mobius was made. It worked with the Time Eater to protect the timeline. But since the Time Eater was banished, the time bird grew angry by every century to work alone. It soon grew violent and soon the Time Keepers sealed it away for many years. But it can only come out once a person traveled to the future and kill that person." Silver explained.
"Why is every creature trying to kill me?" Sonic murmured with annoyance.
"How come you can't use that medal to take you back to the present?" Shadow asked with his arms crossed.
"We tried that, genius. It just showed us messed up stuff." The blue hero informed.
"Well, maybe the Time Keepers would know something like this. But it'll be a long journey to get there." Older Silver informed.
"All three of you saved time before, what's the difference this time?" Konton asked with a smirk while Lucky barks.
"Ya you're right. Let's hit the road!" Sonic shouted with his fist in the air.
"But in the morning cause it's getting late." The black hedgehog informed while pointing at the sunset.
"Alright. At 9am sharp." Then everyone went on separate paths. Silver went alone, Shadow and Lucky went together and Sonic and Konton went towards Tails' house.
~At the present~
Present Shadow and Silver was still in the tomb where Sonic "died".
"Let's go." Shadow said to his son.
"Ya..." The hedgehogs were about to go but something growling in the shadows. From out of the shadows was the Werehog, wagging his tail and a goofy smile.
"The Werehog?" The silver hedgehog get to the wolf and pet him on his head.
"So fluffy!" Silver commented with the Werehog bark as a sign of "Thanks!" Then from the shadows was two wolverines. One was a male with pitch black fur, white eyes, and have long bangs that covered his right eye. The other was a female with white glowing fur, spiky blue hair and wearing a white dress.
"Wow! This is the outside world! I love it!" The female wolverine commented with stars in her white eyes.
"Really? It looks boring and sad..." The male wolverine commented with sorrow in his voice.
"Um...What the hell are you two?" Shadow asked while scratching his head in confusion.
"Oh, I'm the positive part of Sonic and he's the negative part. You could call me Light and him Dark." Light said with her paw in the air.
"She can get annoying a lot." Dark informed the hedgehogs.
"What does that suppose to mean?" The positive wolverine asked.
"If you two are part of Sonic, then why are you here?" Silver asked while petting the Werehog.
"A bright light pulled our master, Konton and then the three of us got here." Dark explained all he could.
"Maybe Sonic is still alive. After all, these three wouldn't be here if he's dead." The silver hedgehog commented.
"Where would Sonic be?" Everything was silent for a moment until Shadow spoke.
"Looks like we're going to visit a certain chao."
~30 minutes later~
All of them arrived at Spagonia and saw the chao Time Eater in a cafe, eating a mountain of food.
"He really did kept to his word." Silver said and the Werehog barked. Light, Dark and the Werehog stayed while Shadow and Silver walks towards the time chao. The Time Eater looked at them and waved
"Chao!" The chao noticed that the black hedgehog had a serious look.
"Alright, talk." Shadow said with his arms crossed. The Time Eater spoke in chao language very fast.
"English motherfucker! Do you speak it?"
"Easy now," Light with Dark and the Werehog coming towards them "I could translate for you." The positive wolverine said with a wink.
"Okay, do you know if Sonic is still alive or not?" Silver asked. The Time Eater had a confused look then pulled out a see through map then gasped.
"What's wrong?" The chao shouted in chao language.
"He said: That Sonic have somehow got into the future. This is very bad because Jikan-Tori will awaken and kill Sonic!" Dark translated.
"Wait, Jikan-Tori? How do you know that? Only the Time Keepers and the members knows about that." The time traveler commented. The time chao blushed deep blue(That's right, deep blue) while looking at the ground.
"Chao chao chao chao..."
"He said: She's my old girlfriend. Aww so cute!" Light said with hearts in her eyes.
"Old girlfriend?!" Everyone shouted and the Werehog barked loudly. Then the Time Eater opened a blue portal and entered
"Chao chao."
"He said: Come in." Everyone went in to see that there were in space and in front of them was a timeline with dark blue. But in the end was a rip and a picture of Sonic was in the rip. The chao pulled out his arms and a purple bubble surrounds the rip.
"Chao chao chao chao chao chao chao chao."
"He said: I'm bubbled the rip so Jikan-Tori won't get Sonic." Light translated.
"Chao chao chao chao chao chao."
"But her workers will slip through." Dark translated.
"Will you need anything?" Silver asked politely.
"Chao, chao chao chao. Chao chao chao chao chao."
"Yes, lots of food. Because I'll use a lot of energy." The positive wolverine said.
"Alright, we'll be right back." Everyone left the portal, leaving the Time Eater alone.
"Jikan-Tori...What have I done to you..."
