It is a beautiful day in Station Square. People are out and about to enjoy the day before it is gone. However, their peace is about to be interrupted by a young speedster. Running through the streets with phenomenal speed, our protagonist gets a few sour faces as he rushes by a crowd of tourist and blows away their photographs. "Sorry, but I can't go slow even if I tried!" he shouts back with great enthusiasm. The young hedgehog continues running with out any care in the world, not stopping for anything, that is until he hears someone shout. "I said get away from me you perverts!" The hedgehog stops and looks in the direction he heard the shout come from. "That sounded like Raven!" he said and speeds off. In an alley behind a local restaurant, a female ebony hedgehog is surrounded by though thugs, one of which is rubbing the side of his face. "That was a pretty good punch little lady. To bad it didn't knock me out. Now I'll you my offer once more, ditch that nerd and go out with me." the green hedgehog said with a sinister grin. "Grrr, you're just like your dad Scorch. Maybe you'll end up in prison like him as well." Raven said offensively, however this was replied by a fire filled slap to the face. "You had you're chance to get out this early, but now you ruined it. Hold her down!" Scorch commanded his gang. "Or you could hold it right there!" a voice called out. The gang looked behind them and growled in unison, Scorch being the loudest. "You! What are you doing here? Stay out of our way Demon boy!" Scorch shout at our protagonist. "First of all, the name's Levi. Second, you need to leave my friends alone. Now!" the white colored hedgehog growled. "Oh yeah, and who gonna make us" said Scorch. "You're looking at him." Levi responded coldly. "Ha! You and what army? There's six of us and one of you, so just try and stop us you freak!" "Hmph, you shouldn't have done that." Raven said with a smirk. "Oh really, and why not?" Scorch asked with smart elec tone. "Because you forgot about what I can do when I'm pissed!" Levi yelled at Scorch. Levi stared to become enveloped in a red aura. He clenched his fist and a black lightning like substance stared to form around them. "Now, who's first?" Levi asked in a dark voice. "Uhh...uhh, maybe next time!" Scorch said in fear and ran off with his gang, who was already ahead of him. "Hey, I didn't tell you cowards to run before I did. Next time you won't be so lucky you freaks! "Hmph, will he ever learn? Anyway thanks for the help Levi." Raven said to Levi happily. "No problem Raven. Um, what about that burn on your face from when you got slapped?" Levi asked in concern for his friend. "Don't worry about. I can heal fast since I'm immortal remember." Raven said proudly. "Oh yeah, I forgot. Anyway, be safe getting home, I'm gonna get back to my run." Levi said and got ready to speed off. "Actually, are you busy?" Raven asked. "Not really. Why?" "As thank you for scaring off that pervert, I invite you over to my house for dinner. What do you say?" "Sure! It's been while since we hung out." Levi said excited. "Alright, be sure to be at my place by six o' clock and no later than such. Got it?" "You bet Raven! See you then!" Levi says then speeds off. "Teehee, oh Levi. If you only knew." Raven says to herself and walks to her house. She unlocks the door using key with her name in cursive on it. Raven walks in and goes to the kitchen for a drink. "Welcome home Honey. How was your walk?" a violit female hedgehog asks. "It was good Mom. Except for when Scorch jumped me trying to get me to go out with him, again." Raven says frustrated. "Hmph, Just like his father Scourge." a male ebony hedgehog scoffs. "I know right? I wish he would end up in prison like his dad already so that I can be rid of that pervert!" Raven says enraged by just talking about the green hedgehog. "Now Honey, I know he isn't a good guy, but that is no reason to lose your temper." Raven's mother warns. "Your mother is right Raven. Anyway, how did you deal with him this time?" her father asks. "It wasn't me this time. Levi came and showed Scorch why you shouldn't make him mad." Raven's parents smile at this and look at each other, thankful that their daughter has such a faithful friend to look after her when they're not around. "Did you invite him over?" Raven's mother asks. "Yes I did." "Does he have any idea?" her father asks next. "Nope." "Alright then, everything is set. Now all we have to do is wait him to come over." said Raven's mother. A few hours pass and our protagonist arrives at Raven's home, which is a rather large three story house. He knocks on the front door. he hears footsteps coming towards the door and it opens revealing Raven's mother. "Well hello Levi. You're just in time, come on in." "Thanks Nebula. I sure will come in." Levi responds. The two hedgehogs walk towards the kitchen and Levi gets a bit of a shock when he sees his younger brother at the table. "Drake? When did you get here? Why are you here?" Levi asks his younger brother. "Well, Nebula kinda needed help with the preperastions so she called me and the others over for assistance." Drake explains to his older brother. "Others?" Just then, a whole crowd of mobians come out of their hiding places. "Surprise! Happy birthday Levi!" they all shout in unison. "Wow! A surprise party. Thanks guys, I don't know what to say!" Levi says excited. The party was great. Levi's aunt, uncle, cousin Wrath, sister Nikki, and brother Drake were there. His friends were there as well. Everybody had cake and Levi had gotten amazing presents from everyone. From his aunt and uncle Levi got a brand new writer's journal since he liked to write stories. His brother Drake had given him pair of wireless headphones. His cousin Wrath had gifted him with a pair of jet shoes just like Raven's father's. From his sister and cousin he got a black colored gemstone on a chain. "This pendant is said to unlock an individual's true power. This means your true power will be unlocked." Nikkei explains. "Awesome! Can I try it now?" "Sure. I don't see why not." Levi puts the pendant around his neck and gets a sudden jolt through his body then falls to his knees startling everyone. "Levi!" Levi begins to be enveloped in the same red aura as when Scorch made him mad, but this time it was turning colors from red to black. "What's happening?" Levi's body began to twich from the surge of power he was feeling. His fur changed color from white to a dull shade of black with a red streak that appeared in the bangs that covered his left eye. His fist began get covered a black substance and formed itself into a dragon's head on each hand. After the transformation Levi got back up on his feet and looked at everyone in the room. His eyes had also changed color. They were now as black as his fur with red pupils. He was breathing heavily and looked behind him and saw a mirror. He then passed out. "OHMYGOD, CALL AN AMBULANCE!" his aunt shouted in terror. End of Chapter One. Hey, hoped you liked the first chapter. For the record, I do not own Nebula.
