Chapter Two
Tunnel of Shadows
I couldn't believe what was happening.
First I was outside the portal to Sonic's world in Washington D.C.. And now, I'm flowing through some kind of wind tunnel.
At first, I was too scared to open my eyes. I had no idea what was going to happen to me. Would I ever get out? If I did, would I end up in Sonic's world? Or did the portal take you other places as well? Once again, I was filled with too many questions.
Soon after hurtling through the tunnel for who know's how long, I opened my eyes. I was in a tunnel, all right. It's walls shone in bright white and violet. It was so bright, I could hardly see.
But soon, I began to notice something.
There were shadows on the other sides of the wind tunnel.
From what I could make out, they were shaped like humans. They were making all sorts of movements. I tried to make out their faces, but it was too bright. I tried to call out to them, but it appeared that they couldn't hear me.
They were doing many things. I saw many different images.
One of them was of two large groups of shadows charging at each other. Perhaps it was a battle. But then a small group of shadows got in the middle. Then all of a sudden, the two larger groups stopped. I couldn't believe that a small group of shadows stopped two larger groups from fighting.
But that was not the only image I saw. I saw another one about a huge group of shadows running to a doorway. It was as if they were escaping something. They all ran into the doorway, except for one. All of a sudden, the walls became much brighter. I couldn't see the shadows anymore. I was even forced to close my eyes again for fear of going blind.
But soon, the shadows returned. And soon, they grew in proportion.
After a few more minutes, I was wondering when this tunnel would finally end. When all of a sudden, something happened.
I began to see the end of the tunnel. But that wasn't all.
Someone was at the end of it. It was hard to make out who it was in this light. It could have been Sonic himself for all I knew. But soon, I started to make out their features. From what I could see, it was a female. She had pink dreadlocks that looked similar to the ones Knuckles the Echidna had. And she wore white robes. But she had her back to me. So I could not make out her face.
Then all of a sudden, she started to turn around to face me. Once she was fully turned, I just stared in awe. My eyes locked with her blue ones. I couldn't stop staring at her. She had a certain something about her that made you never want to question her.
But that was not all. Suddenly, I could hear a feminine voice in my head.
" A stranger has come forth. We shall see what becomes of him." she said.
Then in a flash, she disappeared. And what was worse... I was exiting the tunnel.
The light started to disappear. Instead, I saw a blue sky and tall trees. I began to fall. With a huge crash, I landed on the grass covered floor. The last thing I remember is looking up at the tall trees.
And then, everything went black.
