Not much to say, so lets just go on to the next chapter.
Chapter Two: A new sidekick
Sonic was not the one who could stay in one place for very long without moving, so he ran through the city trying hard to forget about what happened and to only look ahead. He must have ran for hours through Station Square and all the way into a jungle. He finally stops for a break and he hears voices from pass the trees. Sonic took a closer look from a hiding spot to see what was going on. There were three furries, all of them being tigers. One of them said:
"This was worthless! We wasted our time with a freak and this egg won't just crack!"
Another one added:
"This is going to grow into a fox with two tails. We don't need freaks with us"
The last one said:
"Yeah, lets get rid of it!"
The others agreed and Sonic became more upset by the second. One of the three found a big rock and called the other two to it. The three pushed the rock down to try to smash the egg for sure, but right before it happened Sonic ran in and grabbed the egg. The others looked and saw the egg was missing, one of them said:
"I think we got it!"
Sonic was far gone from the area while holding the orange egg. He wasn't going to let whoever was inside of it die, he wanted to make sure it was alive, just like how Dr. Eggrobo kept him alive inside his egg. He did not know exactly what to do, so he just kept going till he found a pond in the jungle. He rested there while holding the egg tightly and he woke up a few hours later, which it was now dawn. The egg was a bit bigger then before, so carrying it around was a little bit harder. By nightfall Sonic found a platinum ring laying on the ground and with the orange egg still in hand, the hedgehog put a firm grip on the Game Ring and he disappeared in a white flash of light.
He appeared in a hub area and not knowing what was going on, he chose classic game play and a level called Casino Night Zone. A heads up display came up showing the same stuff that Dr. Eggrobo saw, and there was an orange egg icon on the lower right-hand corner of the display. Background music started to play and Sonic found himself in a zone with slot machines and pinball tables around. He also noticed that the egg was not with him, so he began running through the level to find it.
He found he was much slower then before and could not quite jump as high. However he could still spindash, which was rolling into a ball in place and launching forward with great speed. Sonic jumped into a slot machine and got 10 rings outta it from three ring slots, then he went back in again and got 100 rings from three Bingo slots. When the ring counter got pass 100, a sound played and Sonic got an extra life. He kept getting rings outta it, but at one point three heads which looked like Dr. Eggrobo came up and took 100 rings away from him. Sonic did not like this, but he still had many left. He ran to the end of the act and ran passed a sign that span around a few times and stopped with his face on it.
He was now in Act Two, he still wanted to look for that egg and at once point he fell down a small hole and a blue platform was floating down toward him. He got flatted, but felt no pain and reappeared at the start of the act. At this point he thought about leaving because the egg could be back in that jungle. Sonic thought about what got him in that strange place and then used the Game Ring again to leave.
He was right back in the jungle, now midnight and so was the egg, slightly bigger. He found a cave, made a little fire inside of it and went to sleep with the egg close to the fire, close enough just to keep it warm. Next morning Sonic left the cave and now he could barely hold the egg, which was about two feet tall. He thought about using the strange Game Ring again, still having no idea what it was and this time he chose advance game play and a level called Leaf Forest Zone.
It looked like a strange jungle with loops, platforms, robot enemies, rings, item boxes, and stuff all over the place. The heads up display looked different, but had the same basic information and the orange egg icon was still in the lower right-hand corner. Right when he entered he was getting ready to run, with a countdown that went from three to zero, at which point he took over running. This time he felt faster, which he could reach high speed by running without help, but it took time to speed up. He still lost his rings from getting hit and when he grabbed a special looking ring, it made a different sound and a small dot appeared on his display. When he got the end he saw it was a flat path with different colors, orange, blue, and red. He took so long to brake he overshot the colored ground completely and gone onto flat grass ground.
Sonic was now in Act Two, which unlike the classic game play style had a slightly different background music, almost sounded like a remix from the first act. The layout changed for the worse with more loops, more enemies, and some spikes. He went down to a lower part of the stage once and fell into water. The only difference was he moved slower, but he kept going on and got back onto dry land again, almost as if he was never wet in the first place. The blue hedgehog reached the end which was the same as the first act and once again he overshot the colored ground.
This time a boss screen showed up and Sonic was on flat ground again, but it felt like he was being pushed ahead by an invisible force, so he had to keep on running. A couple seconds later a vehicle passed by him and it had a huge hammer on it. The driver surprised Sonic, it was Dr. Eggrobo! Sonic said in shock:
"Doc, what are you doing here?"
The doc replied:
"To stop your quest hedgehog!"
Dr. Eggrobo's vehicle slammed the hammer, but Sonic avoided it and he bounced off of the doc's vehicle. After repeating this three more times, the background music changed and the doc said:
"Now I'm really fired up!"
Eggrobo swung the hammer a little bit faster then before, but it wasn't anything that Sonic couldn't handle. Four more hits and the vehicle broke down, but Eggrobo escaped in a hover pad and everything flashed white, at which point he was gone. The results screen came up and in another flash of light Sonic was back in the cave once before in the real world.
He looked around and saw a mini airplane outside with his name on it colored red. It was not there before, was it a gift for him? Without second thought, Sonic put the egg in the plane and himself and started to get lift off in a clear opening. He was flying high and he kept going for awhile till the egg was a little too big to fit in and he found a landing spot on an empty street in Station Square. Right as he got out and took the egg out it started to hatch. A few seconds later an orange two-tailed furry male fox came out. He's more then two and a half feet tall, has white fur on his chest, and aqua colored eyes. Sonic was the first to speak:
"Hey little buddy, I'm Sonic, the way pass cool hedgehog"
The fox seemed like he was very happy and replied with:
"Hi blue hedgehog!"
The fox waved and within a few minutes, they got to know each other. Tails found a pair of shoes and white gloves inside the plane and wore them, both different from Sonic's. Sonic found out the fox's name was Miles Prower, but gave him the name Tails because of his two tails. Sonic also told him about the tiger bullies, Dr. Eggrobo, and the Game Ring which Sonic simply called the platinum ring (he did not know the name of it). Tails started to spin his tails and he started to lift into the air with his tails spinning like rotors. Sonic was shock and said:
"Way pass cool Tails, you can fly!"
Few more minutes later, Tails took the airplane for a spin and flow it into the evening sky as if he did it many times before. It had no name, so he came up with Tornado for the name. They flow back into the jungle and Tails began to build a workshop. By midnight the workshop was finished and they both went to sleep. The next morning they wanted to know more about the strange Game Ring. They both held onto it and it took them back to the strange gaming dimension. They chose classic game play and a level called Angel Island Zone.
Somewhere around the beach, a base stood. Inside was Dr. Eggrobo and a whole army of robots. He said:
"Soon that hedgehog and the world will be mine, ha ha ha ha!"

I'm sure most people will know whom Sonic and Tails meet next. That's all I got to say.
