A Sonic the Hedgehog/Tenchi Muyo Crossover

By now you should know the disclamers. Why repeat them?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Metal Sonic watched the Egg Carrier Mark 3 take off from
Eggman Land, and go through a warp zone. He knew he may never see them
again. He didn't care anymore. He saw that there was another Metal
Sonic in there. Right know all he wanted to know was what's with
the unfamiliar memories.
[These memories....why won't they leave me alone?] Metal said
as he reentered the building. Halfway down the hall, one of the
memories attacked with a vengance. As he collapsed, the memory appeared
in his viewer. In it, he saw him meeting the two-tailed fox, some of
the alien girls and a little bald guy in a gi. He was helping them
with something. Last thing he remember seeing in the memory after it
fragmented was a purple-haired girl cradling a dying, no,dead Sonic.
[What....does these....mean?]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day had began almost as usual. Sonic and Shadow, still
not convinced that Achika was real, had slept in front of Noboyuki's
room, where she was sleeping. The first one to notice them sleeping
there was Tenchi.
"Hey, you two! Wake up!" he said. Shadow's eyes snapped open
while Sonic streched and slowly opened his eyes "Why are you two doing
in front of my parents room?"
"None of your DAMN business!" Shadow shouted. "What, we can't
sleep in front of a door like we can't eat on the couch?"
"Shadow, calm down." Sonic said. He turned back to Tenchi.
"Sorry, man. He's just cranky."
"Whatever." Tenchi said as he walked off. As he desended the
stairs, he felt something wrap around him, yet there was nothing there.
"Ryoko...."
"What is it, my Tenchi?" Ryoko cooed, reappearing.
"Mind letting go of me so I can get breakfast?" Tenchi said.
"Yes, Miss Ryoko. Besides, seeing you in the morning is one way
of ruining one's breakfast." Ayeka said as she walked by.
"SHADDAP, SNOTTY!" Ryoko yelled.
"My, Tenchi. Your friends are sure strange." Achika said as she
saw the two aliens argue. "Which one of them is your girlfriend?"
"G-G-GIRLFRIEND?!?!" Tenchi stammered. He couldn't answer that.
And he wasn't about to let anyone else answer either. All he needed was
a way to get out of that question.
"TENCHI! Are you going to get your breakfast or not?" Sasami
said from the kitchen.
'Perfect!' Tenchi thought as he ran to the kitchen.
"Sonic, Shadow, what about you?" Sasami shouted.
"WE'RE NOT HUNGRY!" the two shouted in unison. This took Sasami
by surprise. "Just save it for later!"
"I wonder what's wrong with them?" Mihoshi asked as she chowed
down on her breakfast.
"I wish I knew, Mihoshi." Tails said. "Now if you excuse me..."
With that, Tails heli-tailed to Washu's door, knocked and went in.
In his hands was her breakfast.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Inside, the red-headed scientist was working hard at her
comptuer. "Washuuuuuu! Breakfast!" Tails shouted.
"Hm? Oh, Tails, thanks." She said, not looking up.
"What'cha doing, Little Washu?" Tails asked.
"I was looking at the DNA from a strand of Lady Achika's
hair." Washu said. "I'm not convinced that she's the real deal."
"What makes you say that?" Tails said.
"This strand has a bit of Juraian energy in it." she said.
"The REAL Achika would not have." This took Tails by surprise.
"Maybe that's why Sonic and Shadow are acting that way." the
fox said. Washu nodded. "But, why did the real Achika have no Juraian
powers?" She looked up from her work.
"About four years ago, Tenchi and the other girls went back to
1970 to save Achika from an evil being named Kain. The battle
resulting from the mission forced Achika to use all her powers to stop
Kain, although it took an invention of mine to totally defeat him."
Washu explained. She then went back to her work.
"When are we going to confront everyone with this?" he asked
Washu stayed silent. "I guess now's not the right time, eh?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
After breakfast, everyone went on to do their normal routines.
When Tenchi was done with his training and went to the carrot garden
to get more of Ryo-ohki's favorite food, Sonic decided to confront
Katsuhito with his suspicions.
"I hope this works out the way I want it." Sonic said as he
climbed the steps to the shrine. He made his way to the building where
Katsuhito usually stayed at and knocked at the door.
"Yes, who is it?" he said in his usual tone of voice.
"It's just me, um, sir." Sonic said, a bit of fear in his
voice.
"Ah, Sonic, come in." Katsuhito said. The hedgehog slowly came
in and sat on a mat. "What is it? You seem very nervous about
something."
"Big time. It's just that I, well, you know...."Sonic said.
"...It's just that I don't trust Achika. I have this feeling that
she's NOT who she says she is."
"Hmmm. I see." Katsuhito said, sipping on the tea he had just
made. "I have that same feeling."
"You do?" Sonic said in surprise. He noticed that Katsuhito had
given him a cup with tea in it. He took without hesitaition. "But, it's
just that if I confront Tenchi and his dad with this....."
"Now is not the time." Katsuhito said. "Saying this now would
break their hearts."
"Then. Now. IT DOESN'T MATTER!" Sonic said, sipping on his tea
afterwards "Mmm. Very good. Anyway, they'll hafta know sooner or
later!"
"Yes, but, as I said, now is not the time." Katsuhito said.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Soon, night came and everyone went to sleep. Shadow had decided
to sleep on the couch as did Sonic, who, 3 hours after everyone went to
sleep, decided to answer Nature's call. Tails, on the other hand, had
went to the kitchen and got some water. On his way back to his room, he
passed by Tenchi's parent's room and heard something strange there.
"What the world?" Tails asked himself quietly. Slowly sliding
the door open, he saw Achika rolling on her side of the bed, moaning.
(A.N.: Not like that, sickos!) "What's going on?" He, then, saw her
rise and grab a knife from under the pillow. Then, as she raised it to
bring it down on Noboyuki, Tails gasped loudly.
"Who's there?" Achika said, evily, turning to the door. Then,
Tails saw her eyes: completely red. "Ah, the hedgehog's friend. Time
to make a fox scarf!" She got up from the bed and ran to the door.
Tails heli-tailed away as she threw the door open and ran after him.
Knowing that he was too fast for her, he threw a small lamp that was
on a table. It knocked him out as he cleared the stairs, causing him
to land on the floor with a 'thump'. She jumped down and slowly
approached the recovering fox. "I'm sure Noboyuki will like it on me...
then, I'll kill him like the rest."
"Oh, I'm NOT counting on that!" A voice said. She turned to
find Sonic standing on the handrail on the top floor. Achika tossed
the knife at Sonic, but he was too quick, jumping off the handrail and
using the Homing Attack to knock her out. By then, the noise had gotten
the attention of the others.
"Sonic, what happened?" Tenchi asked as he approached his
unconsious mother.
"A robber tried to get in and jumped Tails and Achika. I made
sure he didn't badly hurt them." He said, knowing he was lying through
his teeth.
"Are they alright?" Kiyone asked.
"They're fine." Tenchi said.
"I think we should go back to bed." Shadow said as he
approached the others. "The threat's over." Tenchi and Noboyuki helped
Achika to her bed while Sasami and the humanoid Ryo-ohki helped Tails
to his. Soon, it was just Shadow, Sonic, and Washu in the room.
"She attacked Tails, didn't she?" Washu asked. Sonic nodded.
"That attack confirms my Eggman suspisons." Sonic said.
"But, when should we tell the others?" Shadow asked.
"Tomorrow, I'll bring her to my lab and run some tests on her."
Washu said. "If she IS one of Eggman's creations, we WILL tell them."
The hedgehogs nodded.
"I just hope 'tomorrow' isn't too late." Shadow said.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, just a few miles from South Island, was the Floating
Island, a majestic, flying land mass powered by a giant Chaos Emerald
known as the Master Emerald. Guarding this massive piece of jewelery
was the echinda known as Knuckles and his recently-freed ansestor,
Tikal, the daughter of theKnuckles Tribe leader. As usual, the
red-furred echinda had decided to take a break from his guardian
duties, letting his ansestor doing the guarding.
"::sigh:: Knuckles, you lazy-head." Tikal said as she watched
him sleep. "Well, at least it's peaceful." She looked up at the stars
and noticed a big star zoom around. "That's odd." Then she noticed
that the star was heading for the emerald shrine they were at. "Oh, no.
KNUCKLES!!!!" That got the echinda's attention.
"Uh....jeez...what's up, Tikal?" he asked as he stood up. She
pointed to the sky. He looked up and saw the big star land near the
Master Emerald and transform into the monsterous Kain. "Wh-what is
that....that THING?!"
"Your end, boy." Kain said, grinning.
"Yeah, right." Knuckles said. With just a thought, two metal
knuckles appeared on his gloves. They were his Shovel Claws."I can
beat you without breaking into
a sweat."
"Care to stake your life on that?" Kain said.
"YOU'RE ON!" Knuckles shouted. The echinda charged the monster.
He lept into the air and began hacking and slashing at the monster,
tearing pieces of Kain away, but the pieces just kept on coming back to
the black enigma. Kain grinned and swatted Knuckles away.
"Is that all you got, boy?" Kain said as the guardian stood up.
"Pathetic." Kain turned to find Tikal standing at the Master Emerald,
praying. "Heh, you're stupid. Praying for a miracle?" At that point, a
purple warp appeared in the center of Kain and a powerful vaccum began
pulling the two inside him.
"TIKAL!" Knuckles shouted as he glid to the top of the shrine
where the emerald was. He was too late to save Tikal, but he tried to
save the Master Emerald. Grabbing hold, he tried to keep the emerald
away from Kain, but it was in vain, as he and the emerald was sucked
inside Kain. As the void closed, he began to feel a surge of power
through his body. It was the power of the Master Emerald, Tikal,
Knuckles, and one other: the monster inside the emerald, Chaos.
"Yessssss. This feels great." Kain said. He then reformed into
a ball of energy and flew back into the air, ready to find his next
victim. He was very close to becoming unstoppable.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
TO BE CONTINUED....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ryoko: In the next episode of Project: Open Wounds, it's a battle of
the family as Tenchi must do battle with Achika herself.
Tenchi: Mother! Stop this!
Achika: DIE!
Ryoko: Meanwhile, Kain continues his campaign of terror by attacking,
of all people, the Saiyans Vegeta and Gohan.
Vegeta: Heh, you're nothing but a pushover!
Ryoko: Stay tuned to the next installment, "Broken Hearts"
