Sonic the Hedgehog, the hero of his dimension that differs from Blaze's was captured against his will and locked away in an ice chamber build inside of an evil ice princess's castle known as Shivera the Chinchilla. Sonic got himself like this from saving Blaze from being an ice trophy of Shivera and was taken away seeing him valuable in Shivera's eyes for unknown reasons that even he does not know himself.
Long ago, Eggman Nega, and with the help of Shivera made a surprise attack on Blaze and her kingdom. Shivera is a evil ice princess set free from her prison by Eggman Nega. Blaze encounter Shivera during the attack and immediately fought each other. Blaze put up a good fight, but Shivera got the better hand and nearly killed Blaze by stabbing her right on the chest with a ice blade.
Afterwards, Shivera took Sonic away from his friends and family and has gone to the coldest part of the planet with Eggman Nega to revive her long forgotten ice castle and her frost army that have been slumbering, thanks to the power of Jewel Scepter that they took from Blaze alongside the Sol Emeralds as well.
Sonic himself was managing to wake up from his consciousness as his eyes were slowly opening to the world around him as his vision is a blur at first and let out some moaning sounds for he felt light headed. The first thing he saw once his vision getting clear was that he was down on his knees, but something was keeping him up. He was confused by this until he looked in front of to see two of Shivera's ice lizard staring at him.
The moment he looked at the soldiers, they let out a loud shriek straight to his face that startled him a bit. Sonic looked away for their breath smelled really nasty and made him want to throw if he kept on smelling it.
"Oh dudes! Try using a icy mint on those breathe of your's!" Sonic complained.
The two ice lizards quickly ran out of the chamber to tell the news of the hedgehog finally waking up. Sonic looked behind to see that his Stinger was still on his back and still in its sheathe. He sigh and relief as he began to look around.
"Where am I?" Sonic asked, unaware by his surrounding.
Sonic tried to move but couldn't for he found both his arms all chained by three chains of metal wrapped around his arms and are holding them up in the air, making him defenseless for a attack. Sonic took a look his at his chained arms and began to use his strength to break out or loosen them as best as he could, but stop for he tired himself out after trying for a while.
"Darn, it won't work. Why am I chained up? Oh no! Don't tell me I'm in those 'stories' that those dumb fangirls write about me? Or maybe the author has finally lost his mind!" Sonic said, panicking as he struggle to break free from the chains.
Sonic stopped struggling with his chains, "Okay okay okay calm down Sonic." He told himself. "Try to think what happened before all this."
The blue hedgehog looked at the ground and began to think to himself, "Let's see, Blaze was throwing a party of her ancestor Igni and there was an attack by this ice princess of some sort. Blaze was about to….Oh no, Blaze! I hope she and the others are okay." He said as his memories were coming back to him.
Sonic once again try to break out of his chains at the thought of everybody might have gotten hurt during his absence. He let out frustrated moans and pull even harder on his chains for he did want to stick around any longer and be with his friends to make sure they were alright.
Sonic was breathing heavily, "I gotta get out of here. I need to know if everybody including Tiara is alright. I don't want to bare the thought of losing Tiara from my life as well as Tails, Knuckles, Honey and the others." He said, as he gritted his teeth, not wanting to lose the only family he has.
"Argh! Curse these chains! I won't give up though. I will find a way to get myself out of this." Sonic told himself as he had his head looked at the ground.
"I wouldn't be too sure about that."
Sonic lifted his head for eyes to meet the evil ice princess herself, Shivera the Chinchilla, standing by the doorway and giving a teasing look. Sonic just frown at the chinchilla, knowing it was her and Eggman Nega's fault for all this.
"Well if isn't the great hero himself. Should I call you by your other names you like to be called? The Dark Messiah? The Vengeful One? The hand of God? Or perhaps most famously, the Legendary Dark Knight." Shivera said, walking towards the hedgehog.
"You seem confused. Having trouble remembering our special time together? But then again, we were rudely interrupted by Princess Igni for she never was one for manners." She said, hatefully.
"You! What have you done! Where am I?" Sonic shouted angrily.
Shivera chuckled, "Funny, that's what I said when I broke out of that ice prison." She said mockingly.
"Tell me! What did you do with the others and most importantly Blaze!?" Sonic said, with a serious face.
"Those 'friends' of your's I left alive for they weren't worth my time. Blaze on the other hand," Shivera stopped to let out a evil laugh and form her hand into the ice blade that she used to stab Blaze with and show it up close to Sonic's face. "had a much more different outcome than the others."
Sonic looked at his reflection on the ice blade, getting the message on what she done to Blaze with her ice blade. Sonic then got angry and tried again to break out of his chains but this time he was shouting out angry grunts at the thought of Blaze who may have been killed by Shivera. Shivera herself just laughed seeing Sonic struggle and angry about what she has done.
"When I get out of these chains." Sonic said, in a dead serious voice that he rarely uses. "You're gonna wish that you never took me here."
Shivera just giggled at the angry hedgehog's words, "Oh but Sonic, that is your name isn't? I brought you here for a reason. Otherwise I would have killed you by now." She said, poking Sonic's chest with her cold ice blade, ready to penetrate.
"For what?! What reason have you brought me here for?" Sonic asked, "To torture me and break my spirit!"
The female chinchilla then put a hand on Sonic's chin. "I have some business with you, more specifically with your ancestor."
"My ancestor?" Sonic said, giving a dumbfounded face. "What do you mean?"
"What!? You don't know!? I thought it was obvious." Shivera said, surprised. "You're related to the Legendary Dark Knight."
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Sonic said, confused.
"Oh spare me the lies. You have the same blue fur, voice and heart that he has. I can feel it." Shivera said to the hedgehog. "You both also weld the same sword that's on your back."
"Also his charming good looks. He was one handsome devil." Shivera said seductively.
Sonic felt uncomfortable when Shivera lean her face close to Sonic's with lust in her eyes, "But you're no slouch yourself." She said.
"Get away from me!" Sonic quickly answered.
The ice princess laughed and began walking in circles around the chained up hedgehog. "In you Sonic with that ancient sword of your's. You contain great powers, powers that you have yet to unlock it seems." She said.
"Tell me, has anything weird happen to you when you used that sword of yours?" Shivera asked, curious.
"Sometimes, I get some weird boost of strength and stamina when I'm pretty tired out to fight." Sonic answered.
"So you have tap a bit of it's power. Not all of it but some of it." Shivera said, still walking in circles around the hedgehog.
"Why are you so interested in me?" Sonic said, curious.
"I think you'll find this offer of mine interesting. I want to help you unlock the full potential of your powers." She offer the hedgehog.
The blue hero was confused by the offer, "That seems oddly nice of you. For somebody killing one of my friends, but what's the catch?"
"Oh I think you already know what I want from you." Shivera said coming too close to Sonic's ear.
Shivera lean close to Sonic's ears and whisper softly to him, "I want you to be my lawfully wedded husband." She said.
Sonic's eyes widen by the news. "Marriage!? No way!" Sonic quickly rejected. "Why would you want to marry me!? This is some kind of joke right!? Where's the hidden cameras!?"
"Long ago, I did the same thing for your ancestor. I've been longing for a husband and he was the one that fit what I want, but Igni stopped me from doing so." Shivera said.
"A princess like me needs a strong warrior by my side. Together, we would have absolute power over everything and everyone. Our enemies shall fall before us in glory! What do you say?" Shivera told the hedgehog.
"No!" Sonic quickly rejected once again. "I'm flattered, but I'm already in a relationship with somebody for your information."
"You mean that wretched manx cat of your's? What does she have that I don't!?" Shivera said, a little mad being rejected.
"Well for starters, Tiara doesn't freeze people in a block of ice and doesn't kill any of my friends. Not to mention, Tiara has the most beautiful blue crystal eye and nothing can compare to them." Sonic talking wisely about his manx cat girlfriend.
"You're outta luck if you think that I'm just gonna marry you." Sonic shot back.
Shivera just frown at him before smiling wickedly, "I had a feeling you would say this. I have another way for you to agree with my terms."
"How so? I can dish out anything you throw at me." Sonic said with a mocking smile.
"You'll see, it's something that the good doctor is working on." She said walking out the prison room.
"Pfft, bring it." Said Sonic, not afraid.
"You have a few days to agree to marry me. If you don't by the time is up. I'll just have to force you to do it, which I'm planning to have fun with it." The chinchilla said with a devilish smirk as she left Sonic alone.
"Not if I find a way out first." Sonic mumble to himself.
A few hours later
For the past few hours, Sonic kept on using his strength to break out his chains. Sonic try pull his chains with everything he got, hoping he could at least stretch them long for him to grabbed his sword Stinger from his sheathe.
The hedgehog stopped for he was tiring himself the more he struggled with his chains. "Darn! They still won't budge!" he said, sweating.
"If only I could reach long enough for Stinger, I can slice off these chain's rope line from my arms." Sonic said, looking at both his word and his chain arms.
Sonic took a deep breath to think of way to break free, "Man I'm sweating like a waterfall. It's a good thing the room itself is made out of ice to keep me cool." He said.
The hedgehog took a moment to realize what he just and said began to look around the room. He then looked down to his legs and knees, which were the part of his body that weren't chain up.
Sonic tried his best to get up from knees and to stand up properly. Sonic looked down to the ground to see that he was standing on ice and thought of idea that might work.
"I hope this works." He told himself.
The blue hedgehog began to use his superspeed to run on the ice floor he was standing in. Sonic kept on running hoping that his plan to use his speed would help him break out from his chain. It wasn't enough however for the chains we're still intact and kept him at the same position.
"Rats! I thought I had it there for a second." Sonic said, sounding defeated. "If I don't get out here soon. I'm gonna find myself in a honeymoon with a evil princess and that's no fun."
Sonic frown and looked down to his feet once again, only this time he saw below his feet was a small steep of melted ice that was caused by his running. He was slightly being hung up in the air and it gave Sonic another idea be to use the ice prison to his advantage.
He got back up to his feet and run again with his full speed. This time with each running step hitting the ice ground. Sonic's constant running was melting the ice floor as it began to liquefy into cold water and created a small crater below him.
Sonic stopped until his feet can no longer touch the ground and found his body floating in the air with his arms chained up that was holding him.
"Okay, let's see if I can time this just right. One wrong step and it's gonna be ugly." He told himself before taking breath of the icy air.
Sonic started to swing swinging his legs and torso upwards and backwards as if he was at a children's park using the swings. He was using his acrobatic skills to use as he kept swing his body.
He kept quiet and stayed focus at the task at hand. Sonic took a moment to look back at his sword Stinger slowly sliding out his sheathe the more he kept swinging his body.
The hedgehog smiled for this is what he wanted to happen. "Good, just one last strong swing should do it." he said.
Sonic began swinging his body once again and build up momentum. With one last thrust forward, Sonic manage to get himself up in the air. While at the tip of the air, his sword Stinger pop out from his sheathe. Sonic quickly timed his circled swing and manage to catch his sword from cutting him through the middle by grabbing it by his feet.
"Phew! It worked! I was worry that I might cut myself in half. Stinger is a really sharp blade after all." Sonic sigh in relief as he looked to feet holding the blade.
"Time for a jail bail!" He said in his cocky attitude.
Sonic carefully lifted his sword with his feet and reached the handle of the sword with to his mouth. Sonic used his mouth to hold his sword, aim it at one of his chained up arms, and gave one strong swing with the turn of his head to slice off the chain.
Once he set one of his arms free, he used is his freely used hand to grab his sword properly and sliced off his other chain up arm and finally set himself free.
"Yes! Back to action!" He shouted as he fell in the small ditch he created and quickly climb out of it. "Now to get outta here, meet back with the others, and hope that Blaze is alright."
Sonic placed his sword back to his sheathe as he carefully walked to the exit. He peek his head out from the doorway to see some Egg Pawns and ice lizard soldiers roaming around the place and keeping an eye out for any suspicious or intruders.
"Look like I just can run my way to the exit. I'm gonna have to do this the sneaky way. It's best that I that don't anyone alert anyone and have everyone come after me. " He nodded his head.
Slowly and carefully, Sonic stepped out of the room as he leaned on the wall and shimmy his way. He came to a corner and stopped to see some ice lizards making their way towards him. Sonic carefully hid on the corner, preventing himself from being seen as they walked pass him.
Sonic quietly came out of the corner and walked in the hallway cautiously as he looked at his surroundings. Almost everything was made out of ice minus the doors and windows that were shut tightly with regular materials.
The hedgehog then heard some footsteps coming his way from another corner. Sonic starting panicking for he was widen open to be spotted and no corner to hide, but soon calm down when he found himself beside a door and quickly enter it.
Sonic tried to calm down as he felt his heart pumping by a hand over it. Sneaky out of a place was never something he would do for he would just run out of the place with his speed, it was a totally a different experience.
Sonic looked forward, only to be surprised that he found himself in room filled with clothes and accessories hang up around. "Looks like I'm in a giant closet room of clothes." He said, looking at everything.
The Blue Blur's body to shiver, "Being in this ice castle for a while is giving me the chills." He said, rubbing his arms for warm.
"Maybe I can find something here to keep me warm, but what?" Sonic asked himself.
He began to look around the room for anything warm he could wear. Unfortunately, mostly of the clothes were all too small and female outfits for it was clothes Shivera would wear and not others.
As Sonic kept looking around, he found something that was suit him perfectly. What he found was a brown cloak with a hoodie. Sonic smiled as he took off the sheathe containing his sword, put on the brown cloak, and the hoodie over his head, hiding his face from being view.
When the brown cloak was fully placed on him, Sonic grabbed his sheathed sword and wrapped it back to his back. "There, feeling a bit warm already and the plus side this cloak can help me become less detected." He said, proudly.
Sonic went back to the door enter in before and placed his ears on the door. He listened in carefully and heard some footsteps coming from the other side of the door. He kept his ear on the door until he can no longer hear the footsteps.
He slowly open the door and exited out with quiet footsteps and continued on his venture to escape the ice castle.
For the next hour and so, Sonic would walked carefully through the castle with the best of his sneaky tactics for he tried to look for a quiet way to the exit. He would hide in corners and spin dash to the next hiding spot to another.
He would enter in multiple rooms and hide there for a bit. Sonic has gotten lost a few times around the castle for he didn't know where in the castle he was at because the castle was a lot larger than anticipated to be.
He ended up in dead ends and find himself going up and down to the castle grounds. He let out quiet moans of frustration for he was getting hungry at times and wished he had a nice hot spicy chili dog to keep his mouth warm and his stomach fill.
Finally, Sonic found himself at a new part of the castle and it was Shivera's throne room. Shivera was present alongside with Eggman Nega, who she was having a conversation with as she on her throne seat and drank a glass of red wine while her other hand had the Jewel Scepter.
"Oh no. She has the Jewel Scepter with her. That's bad, then that means Blaze really lost to her." Sonic quietly said to himself.
In front of Shivera and her throne seat was ten of her frost army lizards kneeling down to their princess with their heads face down as Shivera was peaceful drinking her second glass of red wine. Sonic decided to stick around for a bit to hear whatShivera has plan for him and the others back at Blaze's kingdom.
Shivera fully empty the glass of red wine and looked at it with a smile before looking at one of her loyal soldiers. "You there!" She called out.
The ice lizard that Shivera was pointing at quickly responded by running to his princess and got back to his one knee before doing anything.
"Fetch me another bottle of red wine. I need more for it soothes me. Go now!" She demanded, harshly.
The ice soldier nodded and and quickly ran out the throne to fetch another bottle of red wine for his princess. Shivera crushed her ice glass cup with her bare hands and created another bigger ice cup with her ice powers to hold more red wine.
Eggman Nega walked towards the evil princess, "Princess Shivera, may I ask humbly of you for something?" He asked, politely.
"What is it, egg shaped man?" She said, slightly looking at Nega.
"Now that you have beaten Blaze and took both the Sol Emeralds and Jewel Scepter. What are you planning to do next?" He asked.
Shivera gave a cold chuckle, "With my castle and kingdom almost fully restore. My father's plan will soon be unfold." She said, as she stood up from throne seat and raised both hands in the air and spoke in a deep scary voice.
"The world will be renew in my vision!"
"What do you mean?" Eggman Nega asked.
Shivera turn around to Nega with an evil chuckle, "I plan to make the world into a much better planet covered in ice and snow." she said, sitting back to her seat.
Shivera's ice lizard soldier came back to her with fresh bottle of red wine and pour into her cup. Shivera smiled and took a hard sip of her drink, "I know that you wanted to create this thing called 'Eggmanland', which I'll allow to happen in the upcoming new world. Think of it as my way of thanking you for releasing me from my prison and beating Igni's descendent, Blaze." She said, twirling her cup playfully.
"A icy version of Eggmanland, huh? Interesting, thank you Princess Shivera." Eggman Nega bow down to the ice princess.
When Eggman Nega lifted his face to look at Shivera, he saw was frightened to see Shivera's ice blade near the of his big nose and felt the coldness of the ice blade touch his nostrils. Shivera was giving a mean stare at the mad scientist.
"However, if you ever decided or even think about betraying or overthrowing me. I'm gonna penetrate through that bald head of your's and cut off that big brain of yours from your body without a second thought. Do you understand?" Shivera said, in a cold tone.
Eggman Nega swallowed his saliva in fear at Shivera's cold nature, "Y-Yes I-I understand. I won't let it happen." He agreed with the term.
"Very good. I think you know your place." Shivera said, turning off her ice blade.
"May I also ask? Why do you need that blue rodent Sonic?" Eggman Nega asked.
"Oh you know, he's just so handsome and I can't help but like his charming look. I just to want have him for my own. He will soon be my dear future husband whether he likes it or not." Shivera let a small laughter.
"Really? That's it!" Eggman Nega said, upset.
"Well that's just the half of it. Half of it is just lust. The other half of my reason of keeping him is that he processes such amazing power that he has yet to know about when he uses that sword Stinger at hand." She answered.
Sonic took out his sword Stinger and looked at it hearing what Shivera said about the sword, "Untapped powers?" He said in a quiet tone.
Eggman Nega was surprised by the news, "How much power are we talking about? He can't be that powerful with that sword around him is he?"
"Enough power to stop me and my entire frost army as a whole. Once Sonic is under my control, I'll help him unlock that his powers of the Legendary Dark Knight and together we will be unstoppable. Even our future kids will process unspeakable power from us." She laughed.
While hearing all this, Sonic just let out a small disgusted barf sound at the thought of having kids with the evil princess. "Yeah fat chance that's ever gonna happen." He said to himself.
Before Eggman Nega could speak even more, one of the buttons on his black coat began blinking red causing his eyes to widen through his dark shade glasses. "Princess Shivera! I just received urgent news! Sonic escaped from his chain prison. He's trying to escape!"
"What!" Shivera yelled angry and crushed her glass drink with her bare hand, spilling her red wine on the floor and looked at her frost army. "Find him quick! He must not escape! He couldn't have gone far for this castle is too huge for him to escape."
Shivera's frost army nodded at their princess and quickly disbanded in search for the loose hedgehog on the run. When all of the ice lizard left the throne room, Sonic slowly started walking way for a exit out the ice castle as he hid his face under the brown cloaks hoodie.
"Well that's the sign for me to hit the road. I just hope that I-" Sonic stopped talking when he bumped into something on his way.
He saw that bumped into one of Shivera's ice lizard soldier, "Rats. Me and my big mouth." Sonic said to himself as the ice lizard screamed out at his face and alerted the others in the castle of his presence.
Sonic quickly pushed away the ice lizard out of his way and began running with his speed with a large amount of ice lizards chasing from behind. As he quickly ran, he was looking at everything for a second to look for a exit out, but couldn't as he dodge left and right with his quick step because the lizard were shooting their ice spears at him from behind.
"I gotta get outta here!" Sonic said, in panic.
Sonic came to a halt when he did a power brake with his feet, for more ice lizards were running up to him in the front. Sonic charged up his super boost, creating a blue aura around his body and boosted towards the ice lizards. The frost lizards release their coldness into a cold wave on the ground, creating a fissure of ice to prevent Sonic from running through them.
The hedgehog just smirked for he know how to get around his enemies. He slightly bend his leg, jumped off the icy ground, and landed on the wall of the castle to wall run on it using his parkour skills to use. The frost lizards were shocked by this and quickly shot out their ice spears from the tip of their ice claws.
Sonic dodge these ice spears aim at him by jumping wall to wall, using his triangular jump to good use. As he was approaching the group of frost lizards, Sonic pulled out his sword Stinger as it twinkle when it came out of his sheathe. Sonic jumped off the wall one last time and headed to one of the frost lizard in the middle of the group and stab it right on top of the head while landing, killing the evil ice demon.
The frost lizard that Sonic stabbed let out a shriek of pain and Sonic jumped off the lizard to get pass the other frost lizards, who kept on chasing him. Sonic sheathe back his sword and looked back to the frost lizards and stuck out his tongue at them in a child like manner, getting the upper hand. This made the frost lizards angry chased after the hedgehog in anger.
The blue hero just laughed for he loves making his enemies angry and it was the fun part of being a hero. As Sonic kept on running, he encounter more frost lizards on the way in the castle. Sonic pulled out his sword again, ready to use to cut through his enemy and make his sweet escape in style.
Sonic ran and slice through some of the frost lizards with his swords as they try to attack him with their giant ice made claws. Sonic would duck and slide under them with his power slide, homing attack them to the ground, block their icy claws with his sword, deflect their ice spears, and slice them with his sword as he tried to escape.
Although Sonic knew his life was on the line, he was having a grand time fighting slicing through these frost lizards. He was shouting taunts like 'Bring it!' and 'That all?' to his enemies, somewhat wanting them do a better job at fighting him. He was loving the danger that was around him that the eyes socket of the skull design on his sword were blinking red, but Sonic was too busy having fun to notice.
Sonic felt the rush in his body and love of using his sword Stinger in this situation that he kinda didn't want it to end. After passing through some more frost lizards, he came across the entrance room of the castle, where he saw a large ice door that was exit of the castle. Below Sonic were frost lizards who unaware by his presence as they were the ground floor where Sonic is just up the stairs on the second floor.
Sonic looked up at the ceiling and saw some chandeliers hanged up. The hedgehog got an idea looking at them and jumped towards them. He began swinging chandelier to chandelier as the frost lizards notice him and started shooting their ice spears at him. Sonic dodge them as jump to another chandelier as he finally reached near exit door. Sonic jumped off from the last chandelier, took out his sword, and sliced himself opening to escape and out in the open world.
"Yes! FInally! Wooo!" Sonic shouted happily as he was still in the air from escaping.
Sonic's happy moment was then cut short as gravity kicked in and made him have his face plunder on the ground like a ostrich like the many times before and killed his happy mood. He pulled hard to get his face off the snowy ground and back on his feet. When he was done, the only face expression he had was an annoyed one.
"Oh come on! Can't I just have one happy moment today!?" Sonic yelled out before blasting off into the snowy valley that lay before him.
Shivera's frost lizards were ready to chase after him, but were stopped when they saw Shivera come before them with Eggman Nega walking beside her. Shivera and Eggman Nega just stood by the sliced up doorway as they watch the blue hedgehog make his escape.
"Shouldn't we go after him?" Eggman Nega asked.
Shivera kept her smile while looking at the direction Sonic went, "I wouldn't worry about Sonic escaping. Where he's going there's no escaping. He'll soon figure that out on his own." She said, confidently with an evil chuckle.
"Well should we at least see what happens?" Eggman Nega asked.
"Oh yes indeed. I have a feeling that we're in for quite a show that Sonic is gonna give us out there. A very 'interesting' show to say the least." Shivera gave a devilish giggle, knowing what's going to happen to Sonic as she and Nega started walking out of the ice castle.
Shivera smirked and stare at the sky and mountains to her left with her ice color eyes. She knows that there lies a large frozen lake containing something huge Sonic will face out in the snowy valley before him, alongside with her frost army she recently woke up.
"Besides, he's gonna have to deal with my greatest champion."
End of chapter 4
