A/N: I have not played a single minute of FFVII, so if I am not doing Cloud justice, be advised this is all I know about him.

Chapter 1

CLOUD VS. SONIC PUNCH OUT ARENA QUARTERFINALS-WINNER ADVANCES TO SEMI'S AND TO HYRULE

The Arena Ring lights have fallen to the ring and is slowly being reset back. Sonic, who can't see anything, is on the outside of the ring and trying to get up. Couple of the lights began coming on and Sonic sees a baseball bat and crawls to it as he has no feelings in his legs. As he got close to it, he is stopped by a black boot belonging to Cloud, who is stepping on the bat. "Looks like your miracle run is over!" He raises his sword to hit Sonic.

3 DAYS AGO BEFORE THE MATCH WITH PAC-MAN

Sonic, Amy, Aurora, and Eggman, who are all wearing black clothes and all have hoodies on to cover their faces, arrived at the arena where security escorted them through the halls room, where the media tried their best to get a word from them, but security did its job and got them to their dressing room door where the media was not allowed. They take removed their hoodies "Is it weird to say that I miss that?" Amy asked, not feeling like a celebrity for a while. "That was my first time experiencing something like that." Eggman responded back to her.

As security began leaving, one of them from the opposite direction came with three duffel bags and dropped them near the guest. "Here are your bags, sorry that you couldn't come with them in, we needed to make sure no illegal items were in it." "Understood." Sonic said back to him. "Also, they got your entrance music and your opponent have been selected." The guard added. "Who?" Sonic asked "Pac-Man." The guard answered back, and Eggman heard this as well. "Anyway, I have to go, and welcome back, Sonic." He closed his fist for a bump and Sonic returned the favor. The guard went with the rest of the security detail, where they were crowding him for getting a fist bump from Sonic.

Sonic opened the door and were amazed to see that the room was big enough as it was filled with a bathroom complete with a shower, a table with different variety of food, a couch, finishing off with a HD television. "Wow, I didn't expect this to be clean and big?" Amy said. "How long do I have to wear these headphones and this hoodie?" Aurora getting annoyed. "Just for a little longer sweetie." Amy said calming her down. "Okay, mommy." Aurora said as they closed the door.

Amy sat Aurora on the couch and began talking to Sonic and Eggman. "I'm not sure we should tell her." "Amy, she needs to know." Sonic said back to her. "She is going to find out sooner or later, and I did say that Orbot and Cubot would watch over her." Eggman added. "I know but she is still a child and things like this could impact her and-" "Ahem." Said Aurora, causing all three to look at her, who somehow took off her hoodie and her headphones, and wearing Amy's first clothes. "Is this about Papa coming back to fight?" She asked. "Because I knew for a long time." When she said that, all three of them were shocked. "How?" Amy asked. "When Daddy was watching tv downstairs and thought I was asleep, I watched his old videos and he felt happy to see his old self again." Sonic was shocked. "But I didn't have all my fights. "As a secret, I told Orbot and Cubot to show me more of Papa's fights in exchanged I pass their lessons." "Including?" Sonic asked if she watch the fight that made him retire. "No." She said back. "They told me that one is something you are only allowed to show me, but it may not be the best decision at my age." Aurora answering Sonic. "Aurora, I'm shocked that at your age-"

"Mom, every time I visit Tails and Zoey with Orbot and Cubot, I have to protect them against Sticks who you should blame for exposing me to violence." Aurora explaining to her mom. "And if you are wondering, no I have no lust for violence as you should only use violence to not only protect yourself, but others as well." "Can't argue with that." Amy accepted Aurora's reason. "Dad, I know that you are afraid of me seeing you hurt, but I won't because I know that you will be safe and somehow manage to get yourself back up, no matter how hurt you are." She said. Sonic felt a little emotional about what his 5-year-old Daughter said. "That means a lot, Tiny." He hugs his daughter, causing Eggman to wipe his glasses.

Amy looks at him. "What, my glasses' are dirty." He lied. Amy smiled and lipped to him, which he could still make out without his glasses. "Your secret is safe with me." Eggman put his glasses back on and went to Sonic. "All right, now that Aurora knows, let's talk about your opponent Pac-man and strategy on how to bet him. Sonic let go of Aurora and turns to Eggman. "What's the plan?"

2 HOURS LATER

As all four watch the fight between Cloud and Mr. Game and Watch ends with Cloud winning, a knock on the door is heard, and Sonic knew what it meant as he got up and begins to leave. Before Sonic does leave as he opened the door, he takes off his scarf, knees down and hands it to Aurora. "Tiny, I want you to hold on to that, because I want it back when I'm done." He said to her. "Okay, papa." She kisses his nose and hugs his face. "Ah, you get a kiss." He kisses her on the head. "Excuse me." Said Amy, feeling left out. "You get a kiss too." He kisses Amy and gives her a hug. "Good Luck." She said to him. Sonic turns to Eggman and offers his fist, where Eggman fist pumps him back. "Show them that you haven't lost a step." Eggman told him. "I will." He promised Eggman. Sonic takes one last look of the three people that helped him get this far, and he closes the door and heads to the staging area.
