Sonic: The Fastest Thing Alive

Disclaimer: Do I REALLY have to say it? I do not own Sonic the Hedgehog.


South Island... A land draped in many mysteries. Upon first glance, this Island seems the same as all others on Mobius. There are Tropical paradises, Jungles, and Cities. This is also part of the kingdom of Mobaria - one of the four kingdoms of Mobius.

However, beyond this, the land is filled with mystery, for this is the main known location of the seven chaos emeralds. Sonic himself has one in his possesion. The other six are scattered about the island, by a mysterious force. These seven emeralds are known for having limitless power. It is said that the island creates a strange force called a "Special Zone", however, very few have ever seen such a place, so no-one can describe it...

Our story begins in the Kingdom of Mobaria...

Prince Sonic the Hedgehog and his band, Crush, composed of Max the Monkey, Mach the Rabbit, Sharps the Chicken, and Vector the Crocodile, were rehersing one of their more popular numbers, "Sonic Drive", with Sonic's siblings, Manic and Sonia, and his girlfriend, Princess Sally Alicia Acorn of Knothole.

Sonic was a blue hedgehog with green eyes, red shoes, white gloves and streamlined spines. For reasons uknown, Sonic is the Fastest Thing Alive. This makes him a bit showoffy, but he knows when it's not the time. He's also quite intellegent, though he doesn't want to take up the throne, but he might not have a choice.

Sonia was a magenta hedgehog with violet eyes, streamlined spines, boots and wore a purple dress and arm length gloves. She was quite feminine, and stuck up. However, because of the fact that her father needs a male heir to carry on the family name, she would not be able to take the throne, unless both of her brothers were deemed unable, and there were no other heirs.

Manic was a Green Hedgehog with brown eyes, and a orange vest and tennishoes, and black fingerless gloves. He was the rebel son of the king and queen, and it showed. In his mannerisms, speech, and the fact that he had quite a reputation for causing trouble.

Sally was a brown squirrel with a Vest and white T-Shirt. She had Red Hair and Blue eyes. Unlike Sonia, she is quite the tomboy, and more than a match for Sonic in wits, her speed isn't as great as Sonic's, but she's been known to be pretty fast. Like Sonic, she's not sure she wants to be royalty, but she wasn't sure if she had a choice in the matter.

I'm lucky to have such a great gal like Sal around, Sonic thought as they continued Sonic Drive. And we haven't heard from Eggman in a long while...

Max was a brown monkey, who was rather ordinary. One of the two gituarists in the band, he had no real special traits. He was the one who originally formed the band, however.

Sharps was a Chicken, and like Max, rather ordinary. He too was one of the original ones to start up the band.

Mach was the pink rabbit drummer. He hated being called a girl because of his coloration, and he used to be a track star, and somewhat a bully, but a race against Sonic showed him that he wasn't as good as he thought. He always would try to get better, but eventually joined up with Sonic's band.

Vector was a green Crocodile with Yellow eyes, and yellow and Black shoes with dreams of being a great Detective. He and Sonic have been friends for a while.

Suddenly, one of Sonic's Friends, a Grey Rabbit named Johnny stumbled in. Johnny's Red coat was extremely dirty, and his bluejeans were torn.

The band immedately stopped practice, and ran up to their friend, "Johnny! What's wrong?"

"Ugh... Eggman... He's... He's after the Chaos Emeralds. He's attacked many parts of the island... Starting with Green Hill..."

Sonic knew of Eggman. He was responsible for many deaths of humans and Mobians alike, as well as the roboticization of many animals.

"What? There's a human colony at Green Hill! Sonic--", Sally started, as she turned, she saw that her fiancée wasn't there. He was already on his way to stop the Eggman. "...Good luck."


A/N: What do you think? Sorry I kinda' rushed to describe things, and the story is a bit hokey, but this is a novelization of the GameGear Sonic 1. What do you expect?
