Hello again. I do not own Sonic. Feel free to submit fan characters to make appearances. Don't worry; I'm still working on The Amazing Race. I'm just better at these stories than humor.

The Writing's On the Wall

Chapter 1: A Future World

Location: Unknown

Time: 14:21

'Why did we bring him here Sonic?' Asked a female voice from somewhere above me.

'We need his help.' Said another voice, this one male.

When I came back into consciousness, I wondered why everything was still black. I then realized that I my eyes were still closed. I opened my eyes and saw Sonic, Knuckles and Amy standing over me. I tried to sit up but something was holding me down. I looked down and saw that Tails was sitting on my chest, preventing me from rising.

'You gave use a good scare there.' Said Tails.

'We didn't think you were going to make it.' Said Knuckles.

'Make what?' I asked in a weak voice.

'Through the Chaos Control.'

'Chaos Control?'

I looked around; I was lying down on a bead in a rough stone cave. A few lanterns were the only source of light.

'Where am I?'

'We're not too sure.' Said Amy.

I put my hand to my head; my head was throbbing.

'I guess the Chaos Control took a lot out of me.'

The impact of the situation suddenly hit me.

'Chaos Control? What?'

I sat up so quickly that Tails was thrown off my chest. I got up and bolted to the entrance of the cave.

'What the?'

I was standing at the edge of a large strip of barren rocky landscape. Brown and grey seemed to be the only colors here. The only thing that came close to this was the trailer I had seen for…

'I'm in an unreleased game?'

'What?' Asked Tails who had followed me.

'This place, this is future game that hasn't come out yet called Shadow the Hedgehog.'

'You mean Shadow from the ARK?' Asked Amy.

'Yes, he fell and you found him, or at least a clone, you beat Eggman who was really Metal Sonic and now we're here? WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?'

'What are you talking about?' Asked Knuckles who had followed me too.

'You, Sonic, Tails, you're all from a video game series called Sonic the Hedgehog.'

'What?' Said Tails

'Come in here kid.' Knuckles said, leading me back inside the cave.

I followed Knuckles back inside.

'All that we know is that when we defeated Metal Sonic last month.'

'Sonic Heroes.' I said in a low voice.

'What?'

'Never mind.'

'Well, we got transported here by Chaos Control.'

'And where is here?'

'Some planet not too far from our own. We can still see Earth from here at night.

'What are you doing here?'

'Right now, we are trying to find a way to get back home.'

'How do I fit in to this mess?'

'We don't know yet.'

'THEN WHY THE HELL DID YOU BRING ME HERE!'

They all looked shocked.

'I'm sorry, it's just, I guess the after effects of the Chaos Control. How did I get here anyway?'

Sonic pointed to four computers in the corner.

'So this is where you contacted me?' I said as I sat down in front of one. 'I'm guessing that you used a Chaos Emerald to establish a link between my world and yours.'

'Right.' Said Tails

'How do you know so much about Chaos Emeralds?'

'In my world, you, Sonic, Knuckles, Amy and your other friends, Cream, Big, Shadow, Rouge, Omega, and the Chaotix are characters in a video game series.'

The four of them looked at each other just before they broke out laughing.

'Video game!' Choked Knuckles, who was holding on to the bed for support.

'Yes!'

'Okay mister.' Said Sonic who had just gotten off the floor. 'If you know so much, then what did we do when we knew Shadow?'

'You got arrested for a crime you didn't commit, you met Shadow and he showed you Chaos Control. Knuckles met Rouge, Eggman stole the Master Emerald; you slapped it into pieces so you could collect the pieces. Tails went to Prison Island to break out Sonic, wound up saving Amy's sorry butt from Eggman. Sonic escaped onto the island, met Shadow again and beat his sorry butt, island exploded. Eggman showed off his new toy the Eclipse Cannon, blew up half the moon. Tails ran for his life down the most ridiculous highway I have ever seen. Tails chased the president who was negotiating with Eggman, broke into Eggman'spyramid fortress. Knuckles went to look for the keys for the control room door and beat the shit out of a giant ghost while doing it. Sonic took apart the giant retarded Egg Golem. You just managed to get on the shuttle and flew to the ARK. Knuckles crashes the shuttle after the Master Emerald pieces got lost again. Tails showed you his fake Chaos Emerald and gave it to Sonic to put into the cannon. Tails endured a hellhole of a level in the Eternal Engine to destroy the ARK's power supply. Tails and Amy were stupidly captured by Eggman again. Knuckles went outside for some more Emerald hunting at the Meteor Herd, beat Rouge to a bloody pulp, saved her life. Sonic got tricked into another trap, Tails went wild and again beat Eggman's fat butt. Sonic used the fake Chaos Emerald to warp back to the ARK where he met Knuckles. Sonic rushed to the Eclipse Cannon where he met Shadow again, you beat Shadow. Eggman still managed to get the last Chaos Emerald from Tails, he placed it in the Eclipse Cannon. A program written by his grandfather, Gerald Robotinic was then activated, this caused the ARK to set a collision course with Earth. Rouge uncovered the file that explained why Gerald wrote the program. You guys along with Eggman set off for the core, intending to use the Master Emerald to reverse the energy of the Chaos Emeralds. At the shrine where the Chaos Emeralds were being held, the prototype of the Ultimate Lifeform: The Biolizard (And the most annoying boss fight if I might add) stood in your way. Amy managed to convince Shadow to help you and he distracted the Biolizard. When you went up to the shrine, Knuckles performed the ritual use to stop the Chaos Emeralds. The ARK was still falling because the Biolizard had attached itself to the hull of the ARK and was dragging it to Earth. Sonic and Shadow stopped the Finalhazard by using the Chaos Emeralds to change into their super forms. Shadow sacrificed himself to keep the ARK from falling, and in doing so; he fell to Earth and was never seen again. You found him again when you were mindlessly chasing Eggman again. He helped you defeat Metal Sonic and you've never seen him since. Need I say more?'

Everyone was staring at me.

'Lucky guess.' Said Knuckles with his back to me. 'And what are the words for the ritual?'

'The servers are the seven Chaos. Chaos is power, enriched by the heart. The controller is the one who unifies the Chaos.'

They again looked at me funny.

'Okay, I'll bite.' Said Knuckles. 'So, in your world, we're just fictional characters?'

'Yes.'

'Weird.'

'So what do we do?' I asked 'And you've still haven't told me why I'm here.'

'Right now, we are still trying to find a way to get home. The reason we brought you here is because we intercepted one of Eggman's messages. He…'

'Eggman's here?' I asked in shock.

'Yes. We're starting to wonder if he's the reason we're here.' Said Tails. 'We… shit, not again!'

'What?' I asked.

'It's happening again.' Said Amy, who was gathering a few packs. 'Here kid.' She threw me a pack.

'Stop calling me a kid! I'm 16!'

'Whatever.' Said Knuckles. He took his own pack and gave me a map. 'When I say so, run to this place.' He pointed to a red dot on the map.

'What are you talking about?'

The ground had begun to shake.

'We're in the middle of a war.'

'WHAT!'
