Again, this chapter is from a very young child's perspective, do not be grammar critical...

Chapter 3- About 23 years before the "Incident" at Aqua Road, nearly 24 years before Sonic Forces

Infinite- Age 4

I always knew that Mommy was mean and I always knew that my future had been picked out when my very, very first birthday happened. But I never knews exactlys what that future was...

not until the day when I was forced to be me.

I remember crouching near a blanket, it was this blue that was darker than the sky, but it was so nice and comfys. I had a supers goofy smile on my face as I looked at the blanket and let out a snarl that the grownups would find pitiful, since I wasn't a true... mercen-something.

I don't know hows to say it. I held my fluffy tail high in the air, shaking my little rump. This 'stalking' thing was FUN!

I jumped towards the blanket, but something grabbed my scruff. I squealed as the something pulled me back and I turned my head the best I could. Mommy. The big girl jackal held me supers tight on my throat, her eyes were blue like one of mine, but the blue hads this deep, scary red all in it, like all the insides of one of her targets had gone in her eyes, and never came backs out.

"Infinite." She helds me tighter, I squeaked and squirmed my little legs, she held my little paws tightly.

She hurt my little tail a bits.

She carried me out near this BIIIIIG circle thing, she and Daddy walked to it and disappears sometimes.

Daddy walked through it one times and never came back. A few other creatures came by a little while afters and Mommy was never the same.

No one ever tolds me what happened.

I wanted to crys. Did I make Mommy mad? Why did Daddy never come back? I pulled my arms and my upper paws closer to me, the black in my different colored eyes shrank as Daddy got closer to me.

I was scareds.

Mommy walked up to the circle, held me higher then pulled me back a bits.

Thens, I remember hitting this yellowish brown surface that seemed to want to eat me. It went up all around me in the exact pattern that I landed.

Maybe I hurts it.

Wait.

What was that noise?

It was Mommy, standing at the big circle thing, where I had been not that long ago!

"AND IF YOU EVER COME BACK, INFINITE," She yelled at me, super louds. "I'LL MURDER YOU!" She stormed back into the house, which I now saw was made out of metally parts. I looked at the house, my ears fell on top of my face and I begans to shake.

"mommy..." The fur on my face became wet, even though there was no water anywhere that I could sees.

A sharp, loud noise suddenly came from me, even though I didn't mean to, and more water flowed onto my fluffy face. I curled up, trying to hide behind my tail, as I felt... lost...

I couldn't go back to Mommy, I knew that it would be bad.

I shook inside my tail, until I saw a huge black thing come on top of me. I looked behinds me, and saw another big jackal, it looked a lot like Daddy, except that it wasn't.

The jackal started to laugh at me.

"Hey look!" He screamed with laughter, to no one at all. "A baby jackal!" He looked at me, with a mean face that also had some of his laughing mixed it; kinda like Mommy's eyes.

"What are you?! SCARED?!"

His laughing became louder, as he brought his large paw up to his face, revealing some sort of marks across his neck and his face, one of his eyes was unnaturally white, the other a fierce and angry red. His hair was silver, like mine, like Mommy's, like Daddy's, but was smeared with a brownish-red.

The red in his hair had not been there when he younger.

"Oh, blades and axes! You are scared! That's the funniest thing I've ever seen! And those executions over in Bloodpool Canyon were die-laughing entertainment! Oh, man!"

I uncurled from behind my tail, it going up behind me like a giant hand fan. I looked up at him, trying to be fierce.

His face twisted as he tried not to laugh again.

I clenched my fists just like he did, he thought I looked supers dumb.

"What are you gonna do to me? Make me die laughing?" He howled teasingly.

I snarled the exact same snarl from earlier, and he could not take it anymore.

As he was rolling over and laughing at me, I swished my tail, trying to look tough.

"Oh, I've had enough of this..." I saw his teeths suddenly, they were almost the same color as his hair, white with the exact same brownish-red that seemed to explode up his teeths.

He pulled out this sharp looking stick; it seemed to cut the light. He raised the supers pointy stick up in the air, and hit my face with it.

A dark red filled the ground under me, the yellow-brown substance that I was laying on was clumping up with the red stuff, sticking to my face as the red spread further out,

my little face hurt.

I couldn't see out of one eye, and my other eye hurt so bad that I was afraid to open it. He stood at my feets, even though I could not see him.

"Not so tough are you now?" He smiled after beating me ups. "You're not a mercenary, you're just a weak child..." I heard a little snarl behind him, he didn't seem to think much of it.

Not until he felt the sharp stick leave his big paw.

I heards a little grunt and I finallys opened my eyes.

The big mean jackal was lying on his face with red stuff all arounds him.

A little jackal, one that was a little smaller than me, stood on top of the mean jackal. It looked around, kinda looked liked a little Mommy, and jumped down. One of its shoulders was swollen and had red marks on it like the big jackal's white marks. It kept its eyes on the big jackal, I didn't want it to see me, so I hid back in my tail.

A little sound came out of my mouth, one that showed how scareds I was.

It turned its head.

I tried even harders to hide in my tail.

The sound came out agains, but louders this time. It looked straight at me.

"Don't hurts me..."

It came closers.

"Are you threatening someones?" It snarleds at me.

"What does that means?" I askeds.

The little jackal bent down closers to me, the red stuff got on its paws, which were wrapped up in a weird white thing.

"Who is yous?" Its voice was high, and less scary than the big jackal. It looked at me for a littles bits.

"Who is yous?!" It said louders.

"I-I... Infinite..." I stoppeds, it didn't do anything.

"Who is yous?" I askeds, it paused for a long time.

"I is a girl." She finally squeaked.

"What's your name?" I asked, she paused agains.

"I... don't knows..."

"What are you called?"

She grabbed my little paws with her little paws and dragged me out of the red stuff. "A lot of things..." She helped me stands up.

"Like whats?"

"Mainly Amara and Primrose. Mommy got slapped whenever she called me anything else."

"What did your mommy call you?"

"Amara. But the other lady that took cares of me refused to call me anything but Primrose. Mommy hated her, but she wouldn't go away." The little jackal girl sighed. "I don't know who I ams." "You're Amara Primrose then. Your mommy called you Amara, but the other lady called you Primrose."

She smiled. "Okays. What are you doings heres?" She asked, curious like any kid would be.

"Mommy and Daddy are heres."

"Not anymore." Her high voice got colds. "You're on your owns now... That's what my mommy tolds me..." Her fluffy tail swished and she touched her paw, she was not happys.

She slowly turned her eyes towards me and looked surprised. "You're... You're bleedings... A lots..."

I looks downed to see lots of red stuff covering my little body.

She pulleds out this green soft thing and pressed it around my little face, coverings my hurting eye and that whole side of my face. "There we goes." Amara saids to me. I touched the green thing on my face. "Don't play arounds with it, it will keep aaaaalllllls your insides inside."

"Oks"

She walked a bits then stopped.

"You comings? We could be squad."

"Squad?" I tilted my head in confusion.

"The big mercenaries have squads, and I likes you."

I smileds and walked towards hers.

She held her paw up. "High five."

I hit her paw with mine.

"Let's go!" Amara smileds,

and we walked away from my parents' den together...
