Chapter 1: "S.A.T.A.M."

Disclaimer: If these characters were mine, I wouldn't be writing fanfiction about them, would I?

"Sonic, the security door should be just ahead of you."
"Gotcha, Sal!" Sonic the Hedgehog said in his communicator while racing through the streets of Robotropolis. A minute later, he came to a huge steel door. He examined it for a second, grew impatient, then called Sally.
"Sal, there's no way in! Are you sure I'm at the right place?" He asked.
"The factory's coordinates are 9 degrees Mobius Latitude and 4 degrees Mobius Longitude. That's exactly where you are. Now, you can either wait patiently-"
"Not in my vocab, Sal!" He complained, growing angrier by the second.
"-or, you could spin dash your way in and break your quills."
"That's no where near cool, Sal!" Sonic exclaimed.
"Well, I'm sorry, Sonic. Bunnie should be there in about 5 minutes."
"5 Minutes?" He nearly yelled before Sally Acorn cut him off. Sonic was about to start muttering under his breath when he heard munching sounds from inside his book bag.
"Tails, what are you doin' in there?"
Miles "Tails" Prower popped his head up. He looked like he was eating something.
"Tell me you're not eating the chili dog I was saving!"
"I'm sorry, but I was hungry, and I didn't eat breakfast this morning." Tails replied
"It's cool, Tails."
"Hey, Sonic, haven't you noticed that the sky is darker than usual?"
"How can you tell?"
"I dunno, just a funny feeling."
Sonic sighed impatiently. "C'mon, Bunnie! I'm gettin' bored!"

"This ain't lookin' too good, Sally-girl!" Bunnie Rabbot warned. SWATbots surrounded them on all sides.
Sally Alicia Acorn pulled out her communicator. "I'll call Sonic!" At least, she was about to call him, but someone snatched the communicator out of her hand.
"You won't be needing this, Princess," Dr. Ivo Robotnik said. "Take them to the Roboticizer!"
"Not if I can help it, blubber-butt!" Bunnie punched out one of the SWATbots that tried to restrain her. She then picked up the SWATbot and hurled it at Robotnik. They all crumpled to the ground.
"Let's go, Sally-girl!" She picked her up and escaped, dodging lasers from the other SWATbots. As they left, they could hear Robotnik yelling, "Get them. Get them! GET THEM!"

"C'mon, Tails! At least give me half!" Sonic begged.
"But Sonic, you had five this morning." Tails said, his mouth full of chili dog.
"Exactly my point! You know I always jam down at least twenty!" Sonic checked his watch. Eleven Thirty-Seven. "It's been ten minutes, Tails! Bunnie should have been here by now!"
Sonic immediately went into a spin dash.
"What're ya doin, Sonic?" Tails asked.
"I'm gonna use my Sonic Spin on this door!" He answered grudgedly. When he was done charging, he blasted forward and went through the door. At least, he was supposed to. Suddenly, Sonic ripped through a dimensional portal, and disappeared.
Tails' eyes grew very wide; he dropped the chili dog he was holding.
"So-So-So-So-So-So-" Tails stammers.
Sally and Bunnie ran in. "Hey Tails, where's Sonic?" Sally asked.
"He-He-He-He-He-" Tails stammers.
Bunnie noticed the empty chili dog bags on the ground
"Look at this, Sally girl!" Bunnie picked up the wrapper. Sally took one look at it, then got mad. "He went to get a chili dog! How many times have I told him not to do that! Especially on missions!"
"But Sally-"
"I cannot believe him!" She yelled, not listening to Tails, "Just when I thought he couldn't get any worse! He ruined the entire mission!"
"But Sally-girl, Sugah-hog never goes anywhere without his bag!"
"Sonic disappeared! He was trying to go through the door with a spin dash and then it looked like he ripped through the air and he disappeared!"
"Tails, this is no time to be making up stories. Let's just to go back to Knot Hole."
"But Sally-"
"Enough, Tails!" Sally screams at him. Tails gets a hurt expression on his face. He goes into Sonic's bag and zips himself in it.
Sally instantly regretted saying that. "Tails, I'm sorry for yelling at you."
Tails came out of the bag. "It's OK, but I saw Sonic disappear with my own eyes!"
"Which direction did he go to?" Sally asked. "It's like I said, he ripped a hole in the air and vanished!" Tails explained, getting frustrated.
She sighed. "We'll just have to go back to Knothole and think of a new plan."
"But Sally-girl, what about Sonic?"
"We'll just have to make due without him," she said, "Bunnie, we're going back to Knothole. Tails, you too."
"OK, Aunt Sally," Tails said, extremely glum.
Sally knelt down and gave Tails a kiss on the nose, then on each cheek. "Don't worry, Tails. I'm sure Sonic's okay."
