(This time, I thought I'd try a Sonic fic from the Sonic Adventure franchise. Pairings for this fic include Sonic/Amy, Tails/Cream, Knuckles/Rouge, and maybe Shadow/OC. I don't own Sonic the Hedgehog. All I own are the main villains for this fic. I'd like to thank Mewlon, for helping me with plot ideas and character creation for this fic. She was a big help with this idea.)
CHAPTER 1
Deep within GUN headquarters, the military organization was in a sate of frustration. Ever since the Ultimate Life Form project had had slipped through their fingers, GUN slowly seemed to be going under and people lost faith in the organization. Shadow the Hedgehog, the "Ultimate Life Form" had escaped from them ever since the "ARK" incident and made it quite clear that he was nonot some cockroach that they could just squish. Naturally, this wasn't sitting too well with the General, who decided that certain measures were to be taken. Inside of the Head Office, 5 individuals seemed to be gathered around the General's desk.
"Now…" The General spoke. "I'm sure all of you are aware of the events that have transpired as of late."
The 5 individuals nodded.
"Our so called "Ultimate Life Form" is still active," the military leader explained, "Apparently those memories of Gerald and Maria Robotnik still keep him going. Yes, Gerald, whom we had to dispose of in order to obtain that black hedgehog… He never should have built that space colony in the first place, that fool. We cannot allow Shadow the Hedgehog to roam free anymore. He must be brought back to GUN, for a complete memory re-wipe. You are to bring him back, dead or alive. It doesn't matter if he's dead, for we can easily make another version of him. Use any means necessary to get him back. If anyone gets in your way, or defends Shadow…terminate them. Are your orders understood?"
"Understood." A female voice spoke, as one figure stepped into the light, revealing a silver, female hedgehog that had gold colored, bang like quills drifting near her eyes. Her hair style seemed like a combination of Amy, and Sonic's. She had ruby colored eyes that gave off a dark seductive look. She had a voluptuous body, complete with D-cup breasts, a "bubble butt," and slender shapely legs. She was dressed in a soldier uniform that consisted of a tight white dress shirt, which hugged her large breasts, complete with a small black tie, and a tight, short skirt that barely reached mid thigh. On her feet, she wore a pair of high heel sneakers that were similar in color to what Shadow had. (1)
"Now, Fury… You've been designed to have and even surpass any abilities that Shadow has," The General reminded, "Can you and your team mates pull this off without any problems? GUN may not have the necessary requirements for any more "Ultimate Life Forms," and since Shadow is still on the loose, you, along with Sorrow, End, Fear and Pain, are our last hopes for retrieving Shadow."
"Not to worry…" Fury said with a smile. "The girls and I are much more powerful and efficient than that old fool, Shadow. We'll bring him back, or kill him, trying too."
"Excuse me…" Another figure stepped out, with the same anatomy and dress as Fury, only she was a green fox, with bushy, neck length olive hair on her head. Her ears twitches slightly, as her curious, onyx eyes looked at her leader and the General.
"Yes Pain, what is it?" The General asked.
"What about that Hedgehog, who mistaken for Shadow…Sonic?"
"Ah yes… The great Sonic the Hedgehog, who fought to defeat Gerald's Grandson, yet now considers him an ally… Apparently he got mixed up with Shadow on more than one occasion. No matter how extraordinary he may be, GUN has no interest in him at this time, so he's of no concern, unless he gets any more involved with Shadow, is that understood?"
"Yes, it is." Pain replied. 'Although… This "Team Sonic" group seems kind of interesting.' She thought to herself with interest.
"Now…" The General continued. "We have pinpointed Shadows exact location. Apparently he has taken up residence, with one Rouge the Bat, a fellow agent of ours, and a robot dubbed Omega. I want the five of you to pursue Shadow at once, and if his two friends try to stop you, which they probably will, then you shall have permission to kill them; Rouge is expendable anyway."
"Yes Sir." Fury saluted.
"Dismissed."
Fury and her team mates walked out of the General's office, with thoughts of Shadow on their minds. But apparently, the request of "Nevermind Sonic" did not occur to them, for they had some thoughts surrounding the blue hedgehog, and his friends.
Elsewhere…
"Get back here!" Espio the Chameleon was rushing at the speed of the wind as he pursued his target. In front of the Ninja Chameleon, was a crimson and navy hover car going at a furious speed. The driver was obviously in a desperate hurry to get away. Espio, however was not about to let the guy go free. Making a sign with his finger, pressing his hands together, he vanished in a flash of smoke, only to reappear right in the path of the car.
The Driver looked up to see the chameleon pursuer appearing in his path. He slammed his foot on the brake causing the car to swerve to the right, where it skid to a halt.
'Now's my chance!' Espio thought. He leapt into the air, pulling out 5 Kunai. He threw them at the driver, hoping to pin him right to the car seat. But all did not go as planned, when…
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG
All 5 Kunai fell to the ground, shattered into pieces. Right next to them were what appeared to be bullets…
Espio landed on the ground, his mouth agape at what just transpired. He stared at his target.
The individual in the hover car was holding a gun, smoking, because it had just been fired, 5 times, destroying 5 Kunai. He stood up from the car seat, and picked his head up. He was a tall, solid, baby-faced, orange furred echidna. On his head was a magenta beret, and he was dressed in an olive green uniform. He peered at Espio with his sapphire blue eyes. "Please… Like ninja throwing knives are going to stop me…"
Espio smirked. "Well, that's some fancy gun work. You're quite skilled with that revolver, Toya."
"I prefer to be called Ambient, nowadays." The Echidna, now identified as Toya/Ambient, said. "But yes… Many have fallen to my revolvers." In a click and flash, another Revolver appeared in his other hand. He then began to juggle them. "Let's see if you're lucky today, to avoid my bullets…" He said, smiling, while still juggling the revolvers, before tossing both into the air, then leaping up, grabbing one with each hand, and firing at Espio.
Espio, sensing his adversary was about to do something, dodged to the side, narrowly missing the bullets which grazed the soles of his shoes, leaving marks where they passed through.
Ambient laughed softly. "Apparently your ninja skills serve you well. I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I just can't let you catch me. If you'll excuse me, I'll be going now…"
"The Hell you will!" Vector the Crocodile suddenly appeared on the engine hood of the hover car, his arms crossed defiantly.
"We plan on collecting the bounty on you, gun boy!" Charmy Bee flew down from the sky, touching the ground with his feet."
Ambient just shook his head, laughing. "Well, well… The Chaotix Detective Agency is together at last… You guys never give up, do you?"
Vector jumped down. "That's the will and spirit of the Chaotix, bud."
"Well as much as I'd like to stay and play with you, I've got other matters to attend to…"
"The hell you do!" Espio rushed at Ambient, who merely stepped to the side, caught Espio with his arm and threw him down to the ground.
"As you can see, while I'm famous for my gun work, I don't rely on them entirely. That's where my CQC comes in." Ambient let out a quick kick that tipped up Vector, and then grabbed the croc, throwing him into Charmy, knocking both of them down. "We really should do this again, some time… See you…" Ambient gave a polite wave, before jumping back into the hover car, and speeding off. "They never saw my moves coming… No one ever does." He chuckled heartily. As he reached down under the passenger seat, and pulled out a small bag. He set it down on the seat, were it opened up, revealing a collection of small multi-colored chaos emeralds. "I managed to come away with my quarry." He didn't stop driving until he was a few miles away from the forest. When he felt that he was far away enough, he pulled his hover car over to a secluded clearing, he examined his bag of emeralds. "Wow…" He said as he eyed them. "So the prism emeralds really do exist… They shine in all 7 colors of the rainbow, and must harvest a huge amount of chaos energy. And to think that everyone else thinks they're just legends…except me, a humble chaos emerald digger. To think I have a bounty on my head, just because I was mining in areas they'd rather not have people on…" Ambient shook his head. "Some laws are just silly." He said simply as he twirled a revolver around his right index finger.
Elsewhere…
Sonic the Hedgehog frantically zipped through the streets on his super speed, his eyes looking quite shocked. He ducked into an alleyway, only a blue blur being seen as he moved. Sonic leaned against the wall, a look of relief across his face as one hand brushed through his long blue quills. His face carried evidence of a blush though. "What the hell is wrong with me? I'm Sonic the Hedgehog, fastest being on Mobius, who can stare danger, and Dr. Eggman, right in the eye…SO WHY THE HELL DO I TURN AND RUN FROM THE SIGHT OF A PRETTY GIRL?!" He shook his head wildly. "I just can't look a girl in the eye for some reason. Having one who literally throws herself at you, saying she'll do whatever you want her to do doesn't help either…" His thoughts drifted to Amy Rose. "That girl is something else. I mean, she's cute and pretty, but why would she want someone like me? What is it about me, which makes me so desirable to her anyway? I mean, there's hundreds of better looking guys out there with better personalities. I'm impatient, can't even sit still for a minute, and let's face it, sometimes I'm not the most polite guy in the world. Yet, she thinks I'm the world to her. How could she love me out of all people?" He sighed. "Why can't I even look her in the eye? I don't hate her at all, so why do I act like this?! Am I…" He raised his head. "Am I shy around her, because I… I love her?"
"You love who, Sonic?"
"GAH!" Sonic leapt into the air and landed back down facing the voice with anxiousness. "Tails? Whew, thank god it's you." He said with a sigh of relief.
Tails raised an eyebrow. "Sonic, are you ok?" The kitsune asked.
Sonic shook his head. "No Tails, I'm not. I've got a problem… This may seem embarrassing and laughable, but…"
"But what?"
"I think I might be afraid of women." Sonic said with a red face.
Tails' eyes widened, and he had to keep himself from laughing. His buddy, Sonic, all time Hero of Mobius was afraid of the opposite sex? Then again, it had been evident for as long as he had known Sonic, especially with Amy.
Sonic continued. "But there's one girl whom I'm really nervous around… I think you know who it is…"
Tails smiled. "It's Amy Rose isn't it?"
Sonic flushed. "Yeah. Every time I see her, I keep getting a funny feeling in my chest and stomach…like I'm happy, yet nervous. Tails… I think it might be love… I, Sonic the Hedgehog, am in love with Amy Rose…"
Tails' smile was wider. "So you finally admit it…"
Sonic's eyes widened. "You knew?"
"The way you act when she's in trouble, Sonic… It's SO obvious." Tails laughed.
Sonic sighed again. "Am I really that obvious?" His little buddy nodded. "Well, I need help. I don't want to be running from her forever anymore. I want to tell her how I feel. I don't know how many times I've hurt her every time I ran from her, but I don't want to hurt her anymore."
Tails thought for a moment. "Ok, I'll help you out Sonic."
Sonic smiled. "Thanks bud, I knew I could count on you."
Tails nodded. 'And maybe by helping Sonic with Amy Rose, I might be helping myself get the nerve to talk to Cream…' Tails thought.
