Ch37: Rooftop Run Never Felt So GOOD!

"Here we go!" I exclaimed as I began to play the song on my iPod for the ever-so-famous Rooftop Run. We were now at the start of the stage and even though I was now joined with Princess Elise in my arms and Silver hovering beside us, we still went quickly through the streets. "Teehee! That tune's pretty damn catchy!" Elise giggled as I carried her past the robots that I destroyed with my hair. "Believe it or not, in my world, this was one of the most popular music tracks for Sonic music," I smirked at the trio. "Heh! Pretty cool!" Sonic smirked.

We continued to run through the streets until we reached the fenced areas. "Let me handle this," Sonic smiled as he executed a move that I taught him after our swimming experience on the triple date: the Sonic Boost. He went at a speed so fast that the gates fell apart the moment he touched it, clearing the way for all of us. "Wow! That's amazing!" Chip said as he flew beside us. I was surprised to see him keep up with us even with his little wings! "Isn't it? I taught him myself!" I bragged.

After some more running and jumping through the streets and rooftops, we reached one of my favorite parts of the level, the skydive tower. Sonic began to skydive like he did in-game and Silver hovered down along with me as I used my ponytails to slow the fall right before impact. "That was close," Elise smirked. "You're kidding, right?" I smiled back. "Yes I am!"

We then rushed forward some more and eventually ran into the Aero Chasers, the robots that fired lasers as we ran at blindingly fast speeds and followed you throughout the whole of Sonic Unleashed! "Alrighty! Let's give these guys a run for their money!" I exclaimed, Elise and Chip laughing at my joke. When the first robot on the ground showed up, Sonic and I both boosted right into it, sending it flying into both of them and exploding all three at once!

"Heh..." Sonic smirked as we grinded on the rail at nearly 80 miles an hour. "What?" I asked him as Elise cheered from the speed. She really was a tomboy if she loved going this fast! "I was just thinking back to our first adventure at Seaside Hill... I asked you a question back then that I never understood until just now..." "What question would that have been?" "I believe it was 'how come you can send them flying like that just by running into them?' I guess you were a boosting master way before I was!"

It took me awhile, but I gasped when I remembered the scene. He was right! Back at Seaside Hill and the whole of Sonic Heroes, I managed to ram enemies directly into the oblivion with my speed. That'd be a boost tackle if I ever heard of one! "I see... seems funny how much time has passed since then, even though it's only been half a year," I smiled at my boyfriend. "Yep. And I'm glad that you tried to teach me how to swim too, because I found out a neat trick for how to combat that problem!" Sonic smirked.

"Wait... you found out how to double jump underwater?!" I exclaimed as we reached the area with the giant barrels. A spiked barrel ran right down at us but Silver kindly removed it from our path before it even got near us. "Heh! How'd you guess?" Sonic smirked. "B-But that wasn't supposed to happen until the next game! Aw man..." "Hey, don't feel bad. At least Sonic can't risk drowning now!" Silver pointed out. "Yeah... remind me to find out where Gaige is, Silver. If he really does have a tracking device on him, we're going to need to find out how to get it off of him before the next game..." "Point taken."

By the time we finished up that little conversation, we all had made it up to the clock tower and had jumped up to the top of the rail. The moment I stepped on it, Elise was in love with the speed that we gained. "YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHAAAAAA!" she exclaimed as I made it to a jump spring and I continued the fast pace into the next area, where we made it to the final Aero Chaser scene. "Scratch up another changed level element..." Chaos groaned. No complaints for now! We're about to get you some powers back so be happy! "Remind me to laugh."

After thirty seconds of speed, grind rails, lasers, and more speed, we all hit the ramp and were sent right to the next area. What was the next area? THE BOSS LEVEL! The temple was right in front of us and that meant one thing... and that thing happened to arrive the moment we ran on the track near it. "Ohohoho! I've found you! Now to get that princess and destroy every one of you hedgehogs!" Eggman exclaimed as he got in a mech that I was shocked to see. It was one I'd never seen before!

HOW MANY PLOT TWISTS TO SCREW UP A STORY?! ... Time's up! The correct answer is... LIMITLESS! In all seriousness though, I feel I should give some info out about what's to come: Sonic Colors will play out okay with a new addition that is introduced in this game (find out soon) and Sonic Generations, minus Green Hill and the bosses, will have levels decided by the fans for the levels that AREN'T already taken by Sonic Team. If you need to know which ones I will not accept in terms of levels, here are the ones that will not be listed on the poll on Deviantart.

Chemical Plant Zone, Casino Night Zone (Sonic 2)
Mushroom Hill Zone, Sky Sanctuary Zone (Sonic 3 and Knuckles)
Speed Highway, Emerald Coast (Sonic Adventure)
Radical Highway, City Escape (Sonic Adventure 2)
Seaside Hill (Sonic Heroes)
Crisis City (Sonic 06)
Rooftop Run (Sonic Unleashed)
Tropical Resort, Planet Wisp (Sonic Colors)

And PS: For any that read this chapter before, yes. I did change up my strategy for making the Sonic Generations fic. This is only because I want to see what the fans want in terms of what levels they desire for Sonic Generations that don't include bosses. As for bosses, I've chosen Egg Golem (Sonic 3 and Knuckles) as the first boss, Metal Madness as the second, and Nega Wisp Armor as the third. For Rival battles, Gaige the Hedgehog is first, Blaze the cat second, and Silver the Hedgehog last. Now that we've got that out of the way, please look at my polls on my deviantart account,jumbochamp, to find the poll for this topic. Choose wisely as I will tally the votes on February 19th, my birthday, and announce the winners and runner-ups on both Fanfictions and Deviantart.
