Frost: Yeah so I got a request from OneWhosNotNamed asked me to do a second part to Child of the emeralds. In the first part I mentioned a place called 'the plains of chaos' which is where Sonic will go once he dies and where the chaos emeralds have solid forms. well I was asked to do a one shot where he goes there when he 'dies' in Sonic 06 so I did. Here he gets to meet his 'sisters' the chaos emeralds and his 'mother' the master emerald, enjoy
Silver: Frost doesn't own us, Sega does

Sonic didn't really understand what had just happened. He remembered blinding pain going through his back and chest, hearing the outraged and pained scream of a female and the agonised cries of seven other young females before everything went black.
Sonic was certain he was dead, so why did it feel like he was lying on the soft spring grass and bathed in the suns warm glow. Opening his eyes he was shocked at what he saw.
A valley surrounded by tall snow caped mountains and grass as green as his own eyes. Flowers of purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red and white bloomed across the valley and a crystal clear lake stood at the centre where he could see large fish almost as big as he was swimming. The gleamed bronze, silver and gold and butterflies of all colours fluttered around him leaving a shimmering dust trail in their wake.
"Wha…where am I? What is this place?" Sonic wondered aloud as he marvelled at the beauty of the place.
"You are home my son" an ancient female voice spoke that seemed to echoed with power and wisdom. Sonic jumped a foot in the air and turned only for his eyes to widen in shock at the group standing before him. They were hedgehog's like him but were female and had an earthly glow to them as did their eyes.
The eldest one was a lime green female with eyes the same shade as Sonic's. She was dressed in a soft orange dress with a golden belt tied around her slim waist. Red and yellow leaves dotted a crown around her head that seemed to be two bits of wood that had winded around each other in a perfect circle.
Behind her were seven younger female, all different colours. The first female was dark blue like himself with matching eyes that glowed with power. She wore a white dress with a silver belt around her waist and also had a crown that was silver as well. Blue butterflies decorated her crown and around her neck was a thick golden necklace and on both wrists were silver bracelets.
The second female was a Cyan colour with matching eyes. She wore a violet dress with a bronze belt and also had a silver crown on her head that was decorated with Cyan flowers. Around her neck was a silver necklace that also as cyan coloured gems imbedded into it and silver earrings hung from her ears.
The third female was yellow with matching eyes and wore a light blue dress that also had a bronze belt. Her crown had small yellow birds on it that seemed to be in flight and around her neck was a bronze necklace. On her wrists were golden bracelets that jingled slightly whenever she moved.
The fourth female was purple and she wore a magenta coloured dress with a silver belt. Her crown seemed to have purple sea shells on it and around her neck was a golden necklace that also had a single purple sea shell on it.
The fifth female was red and she wore a bright yellow dress with a silver belt and her crown seemed to have small red flames that glowed every few seconds on it. Around her neck was a silver necklace that had a large ruby at the centre and on her wrists were golden bracelets that were dotted with rubies too.
The sixth female was pure white but unlike her companions she had ice blue eyes that didn't match her fur colour, all the others had matching eyes. She wore a silver dress with a bronze belt and her crown had small silver snowflakes on it. Around her neck as a silver necklace and on her wrists were golden bracelets.
The finale female was an emerald green and she wore a fiery red dress with a silver belt. Her crown had small emeralds incrusted into it and around her neck was a golden necklace and had matching bracelets.
They all smiled at Sonic who felt the need to bow and show respect but he could only stand in shock. The white female giggled at his reaction to seeing him and it seemed to snap him out of his shocked stupor.
"Who are you?" he asked and the lime green female stepped forward with a warm and caring smile on her face.
"You have met us before Sonic, you just don't recognize us. I am the Master Emerald and these are my daughters the chaos emeralds" she said and Sonic felt his eyes widen even more and his mouth drop open in shock.
"But…how?" was all he could say.
"We have always had solid forms and conscious thoughts, but we can only be seen in our solid forms here" the red female said that Sonic guessed was the red chaos emerald.
"What is this place anyway?" Sonic asked as he watched a violet coloured butterfly flutter past leaving a glittering trail of dust behind.
"This is the plains of chaos, our home" the cyan female smiled. Sonic looked at the place once more before facing them and frowning.
"What do I call you all? I mean, do you have names?" he asked making them all giggle which made him flush slightly.
"Of course we have names silly, mines Verde which means green in Galician. All our names are in Galician" the emerald green female said.
"My name is Vermello" the red female said.
"And mine is Morada" the purple female smiled.
"I am Amarelo" the yellow chirped.
"Branca" the white female laughed.
"Azul" the dark blue female said.
"And I am Auga which actually means water because there is no Galician word for cyan" the cyan female explained.
Sonic nodded before facing the female that was the master emerald who smiled gently at him.
"I am Esmeralda which means emerald" she said and Sonic smiled up at her, in fact, all of them were taller than he was which slightly annoyed him.
"So what am I doing here?" Sonic asked and frowned when sad, nervous and troubled looks appeared on all the females faces as they glanced between one another. Finally, Morada, the yellow female stepped forward.
"Sonic, we always knew you would come here one day, but you were only meant to come when you died" Morada said gently and Sonic felt his eyes widen in horror.
"Am I dead?" he dreaded the answer and felt his world crumble when all females nodded sadly, "But how?"
At this Esmeralda snarled angrily making Sonic take a step back in fear as an aura of chaos energy surrounded her, "The demon Mephiles the Dark stole some of my chaos energy and used it to make a sword of energy which he used to stab you with"
"Mother please" Azul the dark blue female snapped when she saw the terrified look on Sonic's face as he watched Esmeralda grow angrier and as he heard about his death. The lime green female seemed to see what she had done and quickly calmed herself and kneeled down, pulling the trembling child into a warm embrace.
"I'm sorry for scaring you child, I am just mad that the demon tried to hurt one of my children" she cooed in his ear making Sonic frown.
"He tried to hurt one of your daughters?" he asked making Esmeralda pull away and look down at him sadly.
"No, I am talking about you my son" she whispered making him pull away in shock.
"I can be your son Esmeralda, my mother was normal hedgehog who died many years ago" he explained but the goddess shook her head with tears in her eyes.
"While that may be true it was I who breathed life into you. I was there the night you were born. Such a tiny thing you were, just a helpless little kit. I knew that if I did not intervene then you would be born with no life, no breath, so I breathed life into you. I blessed you with the power of chaos and in doing so, infused your DNA with it making you my son" she sobbed and Sonic stood there in shock.
"But why would you save me?" he asked weakly making the powerful being before him sniff slightly and give a small smile.
"Because I knew right from the start you were destined to do great things. You are the chosen one Sonic, the child of both Mortal, Goddess and the Wind herself for when you were born the wind rushed around you in joy and connected herself to your very soul. When you took your first breath your eyes glowed all the colours of the chaos emeralds and you didn't cry like most babies do. You are special Sonic, you are the son of the earth, the sky, the water and the Gods" Esmeralda smiled.
Sonic felt dizzy with all the new information and just blinked in shock. His birth mother never liked to talk about his birth saying that nothing interesting happened but his brother Edmund would say how the wind herself seemed to sing in happiness when he was born. He also remembered his brother saying his eyes had changed colour but he never believed him till now.
"Are you ok Sonic?" Auga the cyan female asked and he nodded his head numbly and took deep calming breathes.
"Just a lot to take in I guess. So if I am your Son Esmeralda does that make the chaos emeralds my sisters?" he asked with a smile making all seven girls laugh and rush forward to hug their little brother.
"I have wanted to hug you for years little brother!" Branca the white female sighed making Sonic laugh in joy at being showered in so much love and attention that he hadn't received since his family died in the fire.
"We have been watching you grow ever since you were but a small kit and now we finally get to interact with you" Verde gushed as her emerald green fur seemed to glow brighter in her joy. Sonic smiled up at all his sisters but a sad look still lingered in his eyes. Vermello the red female seemed to see this for she frowned down at him and gently cupped his face in her soft hands and gazed into his eyes.
"What troubles you so?" she asked making him look down with tears in his eyes.
"I like it here with all of you, but I don't want to die yet, I want to go back home to my friends" he admitted while holding back his tears. All the emeralds seemed saddened to and they turned to their mother who sighed sadly but smiled all the same.
"Your time hasn't come yet my son, you will go back for your friends are at work right now to gather you sisters so they can save you" Esmeralda assured him making him look up in wonder but also confusion.
"But how can they save me? Aren't I dead?"
"In a way yes but you also aren't. Your sister once gather together in the mortal world will be able to return your soul to its body"
Sonic nodded when suddenly his sisters began to glow brightly around him and their eyes glowed brighter. The black pupils vanished as the prime colours of their eyes took over. Together they raised their hands in a circle around Sonic who watched on in awe.
"We are the chaos emeralds, we give life, hope, power and happiness to those who deserve it. We take the power over life and death, we heal the wounds of the fallen, we repair the damage done and fill the void that death has caused with life once more" the all chanted together and Sonic watched as his body began to fade. His sisters awoke from their trance and smiled sadly at him, waving goodbye. He turned to his mother and waved to her.
"Goodbye my child, for you will not remember this in counter until the time is right" she called just as Sonic vanished and took his first breath back in the real world, not remembering his visit to the plains of chaos or meeting his mother and sisters.
"Will he be ok mother?" Amarelo the yellow female asked as they all faced their mother who smiled.
"Yes my children, your brother will be fine now. He faces many threats in the future but his time in the mortal world will not be over for many more years to come" Esmeralda assured her children who smiled happily.
"Until next time little brother" the chaos emeralds chanted together as they too vanished back to the emeralds leaving their mother behind. He smiled as the wind rushed around her happily making her dress wave in its breeze.
"Yes wind, you will get to meet your nephew in person soon" she said as a transparent female hedgehog appeared that was pure white with soft green eyes in a light blue dress.
"Thank you sister" Wind breathed before disappearing as well.
"Our family will be whole one day, we just need to wait until my son is ready"
