Greetings yall! This is Joe Stalin! Bringing you new and exciting fics from the world of Sonic the Hedgehog, Balto and others! Reviews and comments are appreciated as always, so if you like my fics please let me know!

The third part of 'Sonic Year One'! has been posted for your enjoyment, this one is going to be longer than the first two! Please read and review 'The Guardian' and let me know what you all think!

Planned Story Arc-

Sonic: Year One- After the unexpected praise I received for 'The Fox, The Gem and The Hedgehog', I've decided to incorporate it as part of my new planned story series. 'Fox' will be the start of what I hope to be a long series of story-lines set in my own take of the Sonic universe. This is brand new territory which I'm really excited about planning and writing. The stories will be set during the first year of Sonic's adventures, his meetings with the various cast members who will shape his life, and how he evolves from early tentative beginnings into the world saving hero we know and love.

So Far-

'The Fox, The Gem, and The Hedgehog': Miles Prower was just your ordinary con-artist and thief, before a chance encounter with a mysterious blue hedgehog turned his life upside down. Featuring the first meeting between Sonic & Tails, as well as the first encounter with Doctor Eggman.

'New Surroundings': Tails has been thrust into Sonic's bizarre world of adventure and heroism. How will he cope the morning after, and will a new bond of friendship be forged between hedgehog and fox?

In Progress-

'The Guardian': Tails and Sonic journey to the mysterious Floating Island, where an old friend of Sonic's is waiting. Secrets are revealed and old wounds reopened. Are our heroes in over their heads as they enter the Guardian's domain? Features the first appearance of Knuckles the Echidna, The Guardian.

Planned/Tentative Story-Lines-

'Time Zero': Silver the Hedgehog is an enigma, a time-traveller with knowledge that Tails cannot comprehend. So why are he and Sonic helping the albino on his latest quest to save the future, and potentially re-write history? What does a luxury hotel in Palm-Tree Panic and three very different conferences have to do with the possible end of the world? And what does Sonic fangirl numero-uno Amy Rose have to do with it all? The clock is ticking...Will feature the first appearances of Silver and Amy Rose.

'Darkest Night': Rouge the Bat returns to cause trouble in Sonic's life, bringing him and Tails to 'Club Rouge' in Station Square. But the glamorous jewel thief isn't alone, she's brought some friends along. Who is the mysterious Shadow, and what dark secret is he hiding? How much firepower is the one-man tank E-123 Omega packing? And where exactly does the black-ops organization GUN fit into all this? As the conspiracies mount, just which side will Sonic ultimately choose? Will feature the first appearance of Team Dark.

'Desert Storm': Sonic and Tails have been arrested by GUN! Their only chance of release is to undertake a secret mission knee deep in the desert region of Shamar. Team Dark's ally Nack the Weasel is up to his usual mercenary tricks, and it may take more than our two heroes to stop him. As a bigger plan unfolds, and as the Shamarian Freedom Fighters assemble, is Tails ready to become...the Desert Fox? Will feature the first appearances of Nack the Weasel and GUN.

'War Games': The pieces have finally come together, as Sonic unravels the clues and deceptions left by Team Dark leading him straight back to Doctor Eggman. From the highest floor of The Crimson Tower to the water's off Station Square, it's a race against time to stop the madman's latest scheme for world conquest. What is 'Project: Eclipse'? What secrets does a mysterious diary hold, and how does it all tie back to Shadow? As Sonic and his allies assemble, will they be strong enough to defeat The Eggman Empire once and for all? Will tie up the plot begun in 'Darkest Night'.
