On a dark, moonlit night, on a cloudy sky, an airplane is hauling a recent discovery, of an ancient tablet from the Babylonians. Riding on the plane, was a team of archeologists, heading towards Central City, to bring the artifact over to a museum in Station Square, their intended destination.

Sitting in one of the luxuries seats, is one of the young squires of the head archeologist, an orange squirrel mobian, named Boxer, who's currently watching Chao in Space 3… for the 4th time.

Finding nothing better to do in his time, he takes a moment to watch the night sky. Gazing outside the plane, he saw a figure, that appeared to be someone flying through the clouds, disappearing into them. He quickly turns around, and calls out:
- BX: Headmaster!

An old owl with a cane, approached the squirrel
- HM: What is it squire?
The student points outside his window
- BX: I think theirs something in the clouds, just over their.
The Headmaster takes a look, but all he could see were clouds.
- HM: Uhm, what was it like?
- BX: A man with a jet pack.

Looking out at the window again, nothing from the squire's description could be found
- HM: I think you need some sleep, boy.
He was left alone, pondering on what he just saw.
- HM: Everybody, time to go to bed. We'll reach the city, first thing in the morning.

Perhaps he was seeing things, following his master's orders, he turns off the TV, puts a pillow behind his head and reclines his seat, ultimately deciding he should forget about it. But a sound came in from a speaker:

- * *: G-goodnight ladies and gentlemen. Uh…we are currently, changing our trajectory, due to some difficult weather conditions. So, it's going to take a bit longer. Um…so I hope you guys have a good night sleep and…I'll just turn the-
In an instant, a sound of an explosion came and the electronics of the plane spas out, the lights were flickering rapidly, till everything went dark.

The plane shook, and slowly, they felt a pull, moving them towards the sealing. Looking out, it was evident the plane was falling from the sky. Quickly, the passengers buckled themselves up, and braced for impact, and suddenly, they hit the ground…

As the squirrel regains consciousness, he sees that the plane is still intact. It's a bit dark, but the window from his seat, shows that they landed in the middle of forest. Moaning and groaning echoed in the plane, he shouts:
- BX: Is everyone ok?!
Thankfully everyone responds, nobody seems to be seriously injured. Perhaps by the will of Chaos, this was not their resting place.

Gathering together, the group exits the plane, trying to see where exactly they landed. They heard engine motors, running from a distance, getting closer. Searching around for the source, with what little perception they had the dark forest, the engines got louder, and louder, until a light above them, illuminated their area, momentarily blinding their eyes.
- * *: Oh thank Chaos, a rescue team.
- * *: The Leviathan really kicked the city up a notch.

As they stood their, more lights flashes before them.
- BX: So…who called them?

Teams of mobian birds descended from the lights, they moved passed the group and headed straight towards the plane.
- BX: Hey, where are you going?!

They heard something heavy descend upon them, it seemed to be a metallic crate. On top of it was a figure obscured in shadows, clad in what seems to be a metallic armor, with gauntlets and a cone green helmet, reflecting the light behind him. Once the crate rested on the floor, he spoke:
- ? ?: All right bubs, get in the box.
- BX: But wait…who called you?
- ? ?: Nobody. Box…
The stranger took his right hand, and in the palm of his gauntlet, burst a flame, illuminating enough of the individual to notice he was a mobian bird.
- ? ?: …now!

Writer's note:

Well, this is the first story I'm writing. If you know who I'm referencing here, good on you. I didn't plan on involving him here at first, but I read the Sonic Universe Comic, and I wondered how "he" would act with other characters. This story won't really involve the Archie Universe, its my own head canon; but I'd like to try to inject Easter eggs in my stories. Anyway, tell me what you think, theirs a lot of things I want to try here. Also expect some Taiream, because its my story and I get to choose the ship.
