Chapter 4: Baby Sonic on Angel Island
The next day, Sally and the others are getting everything ready to head to Angel Island. Sally, Bunnie, Antoine, Rotor, Silver, and Blaze are making sure they have the supplies they need in case Eggman comes back. Amy is finishing packing the baby supplies with Nicole. Cream and Cheese are playing with Baby Sonic.
Cream removes her hands from her face and says, "Peek-a-boo."
Baby Sonic laughs with glee as Cheese is sitting next to him.
Cheese happily says, "Chao Chao."
Sally and the others giggle to see Sonic happy, even if he is a baby.
Then Sally says, "Alright, everything is ready. Let's head on over to Angel Island."
"Okay," Amy says.
Then Amy picks up Baby Sonic, "Come on Sonic, let's go."
"Luckily, I have a few Warp Rings on hand, so it will make our trip easier," Silver says, and tosses the ring.
The ring expands in size for them to go through with a yellow vortex swirling in it.
"Alright. Next top, Angel Island," Rotor says.
The Freedom Fighters walk through the Warp Ring that will take them to their destination instantly. Amy walks through the portal with Sally and Baby Sonic. Once everyone goes through the portal, the Warp Ring closes behind them.
At a grassy location that isn't the Master Emerald Shrine, the Warp Ring appears and opens. Soon, the Freedom Fighters exit through the hole. Soon everyone is able to make it through and the ring becomes small again. Silver picks it up and puts it away for safekeeping.
"The place sure is nice here. It's a great place for little Sonic to play. As long as the sugar-hog doesn't try to go to the edge," Bunnie says.
"True, but we need to find Knuckles and the others and explain the situation," Sally says.
"I asked Julie-Su to meet us here," Rotor says.
Right on cue, Julie-Su walks towards them right now saying, "Rotor! Sally! Over here!"
With Julie-Su are Charmy, Ray, Saffron, and Espio. The group walks over to the Freedom Fighters to greet them and talk about the situation.
"Hey guys, we're glad to see you," Sally says.
Cream says, "Hello everyone."
"Hey Cream. Hi Cheese," Charmy says.
"Hello everyone," Saffron says.
"Where's Knuckles and the others?" Amy asks.
"M-mighty and the others are p-patrolling the island. T-they s-should be back soon," Ray answers.
Saffron looks at the baby hedgehog in Amy's arms, "Is that Sonic? He's so cute."
"Goo," Baby Sonic replies with a smile.
Charmy and Ray look at the little hedgehog too.
"Hey Sonic, it's good to see you. All small and cute," Charmy says.
"H-hi," Ray says.
"Aba aba," Baby Sonic says, reaching his hands out.
Charmy reaches his hand out and allow Sonic to grab it. Saffron and Ray giggle with smiles on their faces.
Espio, Julie-Su, and the others look to see the young ones playing.
Julie-Su kneels towards him, "Aww, he is so small and adorable."
Espio covers his mouth and tries not to laugh.
Julie-Su glares at him, "Is there something you like to say, Espio?"
"Nothing," Espio says, turning his head away nervously.
Sally then hears something from her bad. Sally looks inside to see her communicator is ringing.
"Someone's calling me," Sally says.
Then turns to Julie-Su, "Can you all take care of Sonic while I take this."
"Sure. It's no problem," Julie-Su says.
Sally walks a few distances away to talk to whoever is calling. At the same time, the others are looking at the little hedgehog willing in Amy's arms.
Charmy asks, "So do you have any idea how he's been turned into a baby?"
"We figured it might be the Sol Emeralds. Sally think it is a possibility for the Master Emerald to change him back," Blaze answers.
"Think it could actually work," Saffron asks.
"We're not sure," Silver answers.
Ray lets Sonic play with his Tails a little and asks, "Is he able to walk?"
"I don't think so. My guess that he's probably old enough to crawl," Julie-Su answers.
Amy then places sonic on the ground. They watch as Sonic is sitting and begins to move to his hands and knees. Baby Sonic then places his hand at front.
"He's moving," Espio replies.
"Come on Sonic you can do it" Ray says.
Charmy and Saffron cheers, "GO!"
Baby sonic begins to crawl a little, and soon he is able to crawl while keeping his balance.
"He's crawling. I'm so proud of him," Cream happily says.
"Great job Sugar-hog," Bunnie says.
Everyone continues to watch Sonic crawl around and make sure he doesn't wander off to far. Just then, Knuckles, Vector, and Mighty return from their patrol and walk over to the group.
"Hey guys, we're back!" Vector calls out.
Everyone turns their head to see the Echidna, Crocodile, and Armadillo.
"Hello Vevotr, Mighty, and knuckles," Cream happily says.
"Hey Cream. And I see the others are here as well," Knuckles says.
Julie-Su walks forward, "So how was your patrol?"
"Fine. There doesn't seem to be any signs of trouble so far. It's best to be alert in case trouble comes on the island," Knuckles says.
Mighty asks, "So what's up with you guys?"
"Oh, we're just having a bit of fun," Saffron says.
"In face, we got a baby here," Charmy says with glee.
Vector scratches his head, confused, "A baby? Where is he or she?"
Just then, Knuckles feels something tucking on his sock and looks down, "Not now Sonic?"
Then looks at the others, "So what's going."
"Sonic?!" Knuckles shockley says, looking down at the baby Hedgehog tugging on his sock.
Vector and Mighty quickly look down to see the little hedgehog themselves.
"Is that who I think it is?" Vector asks.
"Is that Sonic?" Mighty asks.
"That's Sonic alright," Tails says.
"Yeah. He's a cute little baby," Amy says.
"Sonic had a little incident with one of Eggman's machines along with the Sol Emeralds and now he's an infant," Blazz says.
"You're kidding?" Vector questions.
The three then look down to see the baby hedgehog.
Baby Sonic says, "Ba ba."
In a matter of seconds, the three begin laughing and fall to the ground. The others glare at the three as Baby Sonic looks a bit confused.
Julie-Su sterly says, "Grow up you guys!"
"Th-this is too rich!" Vector shouts.
"Sonic's a baby!" Mighty says.
"He is so tiny!" Knuckles adds.
"Hey Knux, maybe you can teach the little guy some combat!" Vector says.
"Or how to run fast!" Mighty adds.
Baby Sonic is still confused about what the boys are laughing about. The others are sternly glaring at the three for laughing at Sonic.
Knuckles then picks up Sonic, "Hey short stuff, you need a hand."
Baby Sonic begins to whimper a little. The group's glare is getting icyer and icyer. Sally comes back to see the laughing the boys are and Knuckles mocking, much to her disapproval.
Knuckles continues to laugh, "Hey Sonic, maybe I should be the hero for now on. You could use a lot of hands!"
Soon Baby Sonic begins to cry.
"I sure hate to be Sally and Amy right now," Knuckles adds, and Vector and mighty continue laughing.
Amy is so angry that she makes her hammer appear and with a scream of anger, she baches the three on the head hard and into the ground. Baby Sonic flies out of Knuckles arms and lands in Sally's. Everyone quickly cover their heads in shock and fear.
Amy shouts in anger, "Grow up you guys!"
The three lifts themselves into with bad bumps on their heads. Sally is holding Sonic in her arms and comforts him.
"It's okay Sonic. It's okay," Sally calmly says, rubbing Sonic's back.
Sonic whimpers as he begins to calm down. Knuckles, Mighty, and Vector stand up as they rub their heads.
"Geeze Amy, did you have to hit us that hard?!" Mighty asks, rubbing his head.
Knuckles shouts in rage, "What's the idea?!"
"Will you three grow up already?!" Sally angrily says.
"Yeah. You three made Sonic cry," Amy adds.
"We were only joking. No need to be physical," Vector says, rubbing his head.
"Yeah. We were joking," Knuckles adds.
"We didn't mean to scare Sonic," Mighty adds.
"I don't care. If you three don't get your act together, than I will," Sally says.
Amy adds, "We will with our fist."
"Alright alright, we won't scare him anymore," Knuckles says.
"Then prove it," Sally says.
The lets Knuckles hold Sonic in his arms. Knuckles looks at the baby with confused eyes, while Sonic stops crying and looks at the Echidna with curious eyes.
"What am I supposed to do?" Knuckles asks.
"Don't ask me," Vector says, shrugging his shoulders.
"Play with him or something?" Mighty asks.
Sonic then looks at Knuckles drabes and reaches out for them.
"I think he wants to play with your drabes," Mighty replies.
Knuckles groans, "As long as he doesn't pull on them."
Baby Sonic grabs one of the drabes and continue to hold it.
Mighty giggles a little, "It's kind of cute when you think about it."
"Very funny," Knuckles replies.
Baby Sonic then begins to pull on the drabe and uses it to climb on Knuckles. Soon enough, Baby Sonic is sitting on Knuckle's head.
"Ba ba," Sonic replies.
"Aww," Everyone replies.
"Great, just want I need," Knuckles complains.
"Ba ba," Baby Sonic replies.
"Come on Knuckles, it is kind of cute," Sally says.
"I guess," Knuckles mutters.
Then asks, "So, you guys were hoping to use the Master Emerald?"
"Yes. We're hoping the Emerald could help Sonic change back to his normal age. Do you think it could help us?" Sally replies.
Knuckles thinks, "Hmm, I don't see why not. But, I think it will be a good idea for all of us to go with you. Just in case."
"Thanks Knuckles," Sally says.
"No problem," Knuckles says.
Sally turns to Sonic, "Say thank you to Sonic.
"Aba aba," Baby Sonic replies.
Knuckles shows a calm smile, "You know, you're actually kind of cute. Sorry for making fun of you."
Sally giggles with glee.
"Let's get going," Knuckles says.
Soon everyone follows Knuckles who has Sonic on his head to the shrine where the Master Emerald is. The group isn't aware that the same orb with the G.U.N from before is spying on them and begin to follow them to their destination.
