FINAL CHAPTER THEN THE PREQUEL! And yes, I will be continuing my random fact for the chapter. This one will probably be shorter. Also, this chapter is based about 15 years in the future. So the twins are about 17.
"BURN GET YOUR TAIL DOWN HERE NOW!" Burn heard his mother calling.
'Ugh, what now...' He thought as he walked out of his room and into the large hallway.
Every year they leave Sonic's dimension, and goes to Blaze's for Christmas. So Burn could see his friends, and he had to spend his off school days with his boring grandparents. He didn't know why, nor did he care. He had asked his father to let him stay with his friends before, and was shut out as if it was a crime. He didn't get it.
He quickly jumped on the hand rail, and grinned down it to the second floor. He hopped off at the bottom and walked into the large dinning room to his left, to see his mother standing there with a newspaper in her hand, tapping her foot.
"What?" He asked annoyed.
"Don't, 'What' me! Why did you do this?!" She asks as she held up the newspaper.
'HOLE BUSTED THROUGH GREAT WALL OF CHUN-NAN!' It read.
"How do you know that was me?" He asked.
She flipped the paper to show a picture of Burn grabbing one of the bricks.
"...Should have left that..." He muttered.
"Why did you do that!? How would smashing through a world land mark, improve anything!?" She asked.
"I hit a new top speed. 1,576 mph. That's only two hundred under Whisk." He said, unfazed by her remark.
"Your hopeless sometimes... Go talk to your father." She ordered.
"Why. He never does anything this time of year. All he does is sit outside and stare into the sky..." Burn complained.
"Don't bad mouth him!" Blaze yelled.
"Ya, ya." He replied walking off.
*break*
Burn had walked around the palace for at least thirty minutes, trying to find Sonic with no prevail. He checked all of his usual napping places, and anywhere he could find that Sonic might be hiding behind. He walked past the training room, and heard Whisk groan in pain, through the doors. He walked in and to his surprise, found Sonic standing in front of Whisk, who was on her hands and knees, panting.
"You've been slaking in your training." Sonic said, looking down at her.
"Whats going on?!" Burn asked as he walked up behind Whisk.
"I... I thought I could... Keep up with him..." Whisk said in-between breathes.
"We'll I'm next then!" Burn said jumping into a fighting stance.
"N-Not a good... Idea..." Whisk said as she crawled to a safer spot, then plopped on her back.
"Fine." Sonic said, not moving an inch.
"You first old man!" Burn taunted.
Without warning, Burn flew back, and smashed into the wall, leaving an indent. He looked up to see his Father still standing in the same place. Not even a second later, Burn was flying through the air, and smashed into the wall on the opposite side of the room. He managed to see Sonic coming around, and jumped out of the way.
"Hah! To slow!" He mocked.
Not even a half a second later, he found himself being held down by Sonic.
"You want to see speed?!" Sonic yelled with anger.
Sonic grabbed Burn, and dashed out of the room, and out of the castle. Sonic kept running and running. He went faster and faster. Burn looked at his special speedometer Tails made, and realized it'd broke after 8 Mach! Burn's sight went blurry quickly after that.
He slowly regained vision, and only to see Whisk leaning over him. He slowly got up and realized he was back in the training room.
"What happened..." He asked holding his head.
"You passed out after dad passed the palace the fourth time." Whisk said.
*break*
Burn was sitting on a bench outside of the palace with Whisk sitting next to him.
"They were supposed to be here already..." Burn complained.
"Be patient. They're old." Whisk said.
"How do you think dad does it?" Burn asked looking up at the clouds.
"Run so fast?" Whisk asked.
"No. See were he's going." Burn replied.
"I don't know. He used to be really in sync with Chaos Control. I think he can see 5 seconds into the future when he runs." Whisk answered.
"Maybe. I'm sure mom enjoys it." He joked.
"Ew! Gross!" Whisk said making a face and hitting Burn's knee.
*break*
"I'm hungry." An much older cay complained.
"We know grams. You told us." Whisk moaned holding her head.
"Where not going to eat until later." Burn said.
They had been sitting in the living area of the palace for at least thirty minutes.
"Father said the food would be ready soon." He added.
"We'll he can lie all he wants! I'm going to go get a sandwich." There grandma said getting up and walking out. "All he ever odes is lie to people." She said walking out the door.
Burn and Whisk looked a each other at the same time, and jumped up to follow there grandmother.
"What do you mean? Father doesn't lie to use." Whisk said as they caught up.
"That is what you think. But, you never really ask about things either, do you?" She said.
"Um... No." Burn replied, as they got to the kitchen.
"So you have no proof that he tells the truth either." She said weaving past the busy chefs.
"I guess not." Whisk said after a moment.
"So. Maybe he lies. Maybe he doesn't. But if you want me to prove that he is a lier, I will." She replied getting into the refrigerator.
"I don't think father lies to us." Whisk said to Burn.
"We'll maybe, maybe not. But he doesn't tell us things either." He replied.
"I don't have all day." There grandmother said turning to them.
*break*
The family had eaten there dinner and was now sitting down, and enjoying each others company. ...Mostly. After about twenty minutes, one of the butlers walked in with a paper in his hand.
"Your highness. An urgent message from Tails." he said ah he handed Sonic the paper, and left.
Sonic picked it up and he skimmed over it. After a second, he folded up the paper, sat it on the table, and walked over to the window.
"Sonic? What's wrong?" Blaze asked.
After a moment of silence, Blaze picked up the paper, unfolded it, and read it. She covered he mouth after reading the first line. Shortly after finishing it, she looked up at the rest of the family, and back to Sonic.
"Pardon me, but this also came with the message." The butler said bringing in a small box, and setting it down.
Sonic opened the box slightly, and closed it once he saw the contents. After a moment, Sonic took a deep breath.
"Kids... There is something I haven't told you... There is a reason I haven't told you, and now it may be safe for you to know." Sonic said.
"So you do lie to us!" Burn yelled jumping up.
"I DONT LIE TO YOU! WHO TOLD YOU THAT!?" He yelled.
Whisk quickly pointed towards there grandmother.
"...I figured." Sonic said with an angered look on his face.
Sonic took the paper and sat it on the table.
"This man is why I haven't told you." Sonic said.
The paper was actually a new arrival with a dead man in the picture. 'Eggman found dead in station square streets!' The article said. Farther down, it read that the doctors decided it was a stroke that killed him.
"That's great but what aren't you telling us?" Whisk asked.
Sonic opened the box, and pulled out a purple chaos emerald. He then held it toward the twins.
