To Shade-the-Hedgehog: Glad you enjoyed it. I re-posted this story after I edited it because had it deleted. It was riddled with errors my old computer's spell check couldn't pick out, and it was a jumbled mess. I will update this story with every review I get.
Joshua Lee: Sorry but you are wrong, that was not the first chapter. That was the prologue, and who wants to waste all the fire on the prologue? Thank you for taking the time to read it though!
Well now it's time for chapter one, though it's nothing more then a continuation of the prologue you could say, story really begins on chapter two. Hope you enjoy this next chapter none the less.
------------------------------------
Chapter One
In the Thorndyke mansion was were it happened, or more or less were it started. The event did not just involve Chris Thorndyke and Chuck, but also some animals much like myself who lived in the mansion. Also remember that this was seventy four years ago, back when the mansion was classy and illustrious. Yes, back then it was a sight to behold and not the ruin it is now. The mansion was occupied by a orange two tailed fox, a pink hedgehog, a cream colored rabbit which also contributed to her name, a being known as a chao, and a blue fifteen year old hedgehog, Sonic. The fox was named Miles Prower but was nicknamed Tails. He was a great mechanic who rivaled even Ivo Robotnick A.K.A. Eggman. Tails was about eight years old. He was kind and gentle but as all foxes were he could get violent when his friends were threatened. However, he was young so when it was up to him to be valiant there wasn't much he could do. At least not with out the Tornado. That was a plane he built but it's nothing but a forgotten memory now. He could also fly using his tails. The pink hedgehog was named Amy age twelve. She was a good example of yin yang. Trouble but helpful. Kind yet annoying. Amy had a crush on Sonic and Tails had a liking to her but that was only for a little while. Cream the rabbit was a polite and rather calm girl of six. Much like Tails except for the rambunctious part. She was able to see into the hearts and souls of people and tell exactly what they were feeling. She could also fly using her ears. Her friend/ pet was the chao which was a lot like her but did not speak in the common tongue, but Cream could decipher what the chao was saying by reading his emotions. The chao was called Cheese. As for Sonic I don't think there is anything that needs to be said. At least not now.
Others who were involved in the event of which I'm going to speak of was Eggman. There is nothing to be said about him. Knuckles however plays an important part. A great fighter but had a bit of a temper and ego. Also he's an Echidna. He was a nice enough guy despite this. He must have been sixteen years old or so. Grapes were his favorite food. He was the guardian of the Master Emerald. That was a giant jewel which controlled seven smaller jewels called Chaos Emeralds. Inside the Master Emerald was a being called Chaos. That water creature that attacked Station Square seventy four years ago. Now you very well know about the ARK event. Now for the part you don't know.
The ARK was the birth place for the Ultimate life form and it's prototype. The successor one was a black hedgehog named Shadow. He was a misanthrope. You now, a person that hates mankind. The prototype was that thing attached to the ARK. Sonic and all of his friends(except Chris, Cream, and Cheese) were involved in that event. Even Eggman helped. Shadow also helped. Strangely enough he was trying to destroy mankind at first. It had something to do with a girl named Maria. How Sonic and his friends got this I do not know. Shadow had the ability to teleport when ever he had an Emerald with him. It was called Chaos Control, Sonic learned it too. More impressive is that the Chaos Emeralds could empower anyone who had all seven and make them invincible and really fast as long as enough power was available. After use one would become really tired. Sonic and Shadow used this trick to defeat the Prototype. This was in space so after they stopped the ARK from colliding with the earth the two hedgehogs started to fall to our planet. Sonic got back to the ARK somehow but Shadow was not as lucky. Eventually everybody got back down to Earth and to there old affairs. Knuckles guarding the Master Emerald, Eggman and his mechanics. Sonic and everybody else to the Thorndyke mansion for some R'n'R. Then one day they got a visitor.
