Chapter 2-Shocking News and a New Friend

EDIT: I made a mistake here that xiXlToxiclXix nicely pointed out so I quickly fixed it!

Tails was tuning up the Tornado around the same time Sonic disappeared. The young, orange-yellow furred, twin-tailed fox was unaware of what happened except the fact that his hero and almost older brother went to stop Eggman again earlier that morning. Soon he heard a knocking at the door and an energetic female voice calling, "SONIC! Are you in there?"

Sighing, Tails got up, wiped the grease of his hands, opened the door, and saw it was Amy, as per usual. The pink hedgehog was Sonic's self-proclaimed girlfriend and can never seem to give the poor guy a break. Usually, Amy was wearing a red, white trimmed dress with matching boots, hair band, and gold bracelets with her white gloves. But since it was summer, she was wearing a white tank top, blue shorts and sandals as well as a blue visor.

"Hey Tails!" she greeted in the same cheerful voice. "Is Sonic around anywhere?"

Tails shook his head. "Sorry, Amy, I haven't seen him since this morning when he went to fight Dr. Eggman again. But I'm sure that he'll be home soon."

"I'm afraid that may not be true," an unknown voice sounded and they looked around to see a blue jackal-like creature on the roof with deep regret in his red eyes as he continued. "Your friend is sadly not here, but in another world."

At this point Amy's attitude completely flipped around as she glared at him angrily. "Another world? What do you mean? Who are you and what did you do to my Sonic?"

"C-Calm down Amy!" Tails said as he did his best to keep her from bringing out her hammer.

The creature was unexpectedly calm at this outburst. "It's all right, I was expecting this. You and your other friends deserve the right to learn what is happening. Why not we all meet on that floating island you know and I will explain everything."

At this point he turned to leave when Tails said, "Wait! Who are you?"

He paused then said before disappearing, "Lucario."

XXX-XXX

Still confused and curious on what Lucario had to say, Amy and Tails went to find the others and meet him on Angel Island, not bothering with Knuckles since it was his home. After rounding up Rouge, Shadow, Angel and the Chaotix, they arrived to hear the Guardian ranting off at someone and Tails sighed at this knowing it was probably Lucario so they went further in to see both the very calm Aura Pokémon and the very peeved Echidna.

"Listen, I don't CARE if it's important! YOU are TRESPASSING on MY ISLAND!" Knuckles shouted and Lucario replied.

"I understand that I am trespassing and I apologize but please listen, since it is about your friend, Sonic."

At that point the Echidna went from frustrated to curious. "Wait a second! Rewind and freeze! This is about Sonic? What happened to him?"

"That's what we all like to know!" Rouge interjected which caused him to jump and notice the others. "Oh hey guys! What are you doing here?"

"Lucario told us to meet here so we can hear what's going on," Amy explained and Knuckles mentally kicked himself before apologizing to Lucario for the misunderstanding.

Lucario shook his head at this. "No, you were just doing your duty as I am doing mine right now. Please listen to what I have to say."

They all settled down around the steps of the shrine as he told his tale.

"I come from another world. A world full of Pokémon living in peace and unity. We were saved from some natural disasters a few months ago by a human becoming a Pokémon and working together with a rescue team. We hoped that peace will last again, but were sadly mistaken. The balance of our world had become disrupted and the natural disasters happened once again. I found out after I came back from a training session with a large fighting-type Pokémon called Hariyama. I soon went to see a Pokémon that stares at the sun all day to give him special sight of the past and future, called Xatu, and he told me that the only way to save the world was to get help from a hero in another world. As soon as I heard this, a Pokémon called Ninetales came and told me that the only help that can be found was in your world, Mobius, and that the spirits of the Murky Cave can send me there, provided that I remain to make sure that you all understood what was happening.I soon went to the Murky Cave and saw Sonic's battle with his enemy, who pulled out a large cannon that seemed impossible to escape from. Wasting no time, the spirits protected Sonic from the attack and transported myself to his location, and Sonic was sent to my world. I had a feeling that the egg-shaped human might attack me so I gave him a warning of my power by defending myself with an Aura Sphere. Where Sonic was sent in my world, I do not know. But I do know that he will use his power as a Pokémon wisely and that my world will be safe again."

After Lucario told his story, there was such stunned silence that the only things that made noise was the wind through the trees. That is, until Angel spoke up with understanding showing in her eyes. "So Sonic was sent to your world to save it while you're staying here to make sure we don't worry too much?"

Lucario nodded and Knuckles asked, "O.K but how did you know about Angel Island since this is your first time here?"

"Yeah! How did you know?" Charmy repeated and Lucario explained. "A Lucario's main ability is to sense the auras, or life force, of all living things. So I used my ability to find a suitable meeting place to tell my story and sensed the strong aura of the island."

Everyone was impressed at hearing of an ability similar to sensing Chaos Energy and they felt a stronger sense of trust for their new friend.

"So what are you going to do now?" Shadow asked in concern.

" Since I am staying in this world for a while, I was about to look for a place to stay and learn more about this world."

"Well you can stay here on the island; it's my way of saying sorry for biting your head off," Knuckles said and Vector added, "Plus you can hang around with the rest of us! What do you say to that?"

Lucario was briefly stunned at being accepted so easily and knew since he did save Sonic, they had a true right for doing so as he smiled. "Thank you, everyone."

Lucario is now accepted as a friend by the Sonic Heroes, but what about Sonic? Will he be accepted as a friend or will he be treated a misfit? I guess we'll have to find out!

Author's Notes:

Now I know what you guys are thinking: "L.T why the heck did this take so long! I mean your redoing chapters and stuff so wouldn't it take less than a day?"

Well yes it might but remember; these go back to my high school days and my days on Sheezyart so it's basically an art in itself to redo and revamp these chapters. Plus I couldn't find a shotgun to kill off those dang plot bunnies to my other stories so that's another reason why.

No basically it's still the same, I just had to add/change/remove things to make it work.

Also for those on who doesn't know who Angel is, check out my older series "A New Side of Shadow" on my DA page. (Look for "Light-Trainer" on DA.)

I'm still looking for Mobian Trainers and those on DA and who watches me please note I may not get EVERYONE'S Trainer in after all. I'm going to basically pic and choose which ones would work the best and those I don't choose will have a chance when I get to SMD2 if possible. (I got a lot of strong possibilities right now!)

Also to those who haven't given me anything but still would like to join in, I have a few minor requests to your Pokemon teams to keep the confusions from happening among my readers:

1. No legendaries, which includes Mew, Celebi, Shaymin, Deoxys and the like.

2. When doing up move lists if you want to, please make sure the moves are ones your Pokemon CAN learn and not crazy confusing ones like a Meowth that knows Flamethrower or something like that.

3. I also want to keep the descriptions of the Trainers and Pokemon short, sweet, and simple to lessen the chance of my laptop's memory space of being used up. (Even though I got 6G of memory I don't want it all used up!)

Thanks and enjoy!
