Chapter 2: Proposal
(Music: Get Ready for the Big Event - Sonic Free Riders OST)
Grrrrooooowwwwwlllllll~!
There was a loud growl throughout the room. Hanzō and Kiriya looked at Asuka, thinking it was her stomach.
-"It wasn't me, I swear!"- Asuka defended herself by waving her hand in defense.
Grrrrooooowwwwwlllllll~!
There was a loud growl in the room again. Everyone looked at Sonic who was holding on to his stomach.
-"Hahaha... I'm sorry. I haven't eaten anything in a long time."- Sonic laughed nervously, holding onto his belly. Asuka giggled.
-"It's fine. I'll go to my family restaurant and prepare some futomaki rolls for you."- Asuka offered with a smile.
-"I will be very grateful, Asuka."- Sonic accepted the offer.
-"But before I go, promise me that you will lie down and rest, you got it?"- Asuka warned, pointing her finger at Sonic, leaning towards him, making her breasts jump slightly.
(Music End)
-"Hai, got it."- Sonic responded with a slight blush, turning his eyes away from her breasts.
-"Okay, I'm leaving now. I'll be back in a few hours. See you, Sonic-kun!" - Asuka said goodbye and left the room.
Sonic smiled, thinking she was very nice to him, even though she knew him very briefly. Sonic then noticed a letter lying on the cupboard opposite his bed.
-" This letter been here before, or it just seems to me?"- Sonic asked, wanting to know where the mysterious letter came from.
(Music: 3 Black Noises (Revival) - Sonic X OST)
Hanzō walked up to the locker, took the letter and started reading it.
Hanzō and Kiriya
I ask you to train him as a powerful Shinobi. He has many battle skills, as well as his weaknesses. Therefore, you two are to help him break through them and become a Shinobi whose destiny is to defeat me. If you don't, you'll see with your own eyes how the whole city will be destroyed by my anger.
Hanzō stood in silence, looking at the letter with concern. The message contained a request as well as a warning. Someone wanted the blue-haired boy to become a Shinobi, who will later fight him. Hanzo then forwarded the letter to Kiriya to read it. After reading the letter, Kiriya had the same concerned facial expression as Hanzō. The two men looked at each other and nodded. They had no option but to train Sonic for the Shinobi, because the lives of innocent people depended on him.
(Music End)
-"Is that... Caliburn... and my Blue Star? And what are these bags?" - Sonic asked, looking at the things next to the bed.
Hanzō and Kiriya looked in the direction that the boy pointed to see the long sword with a double-edged silvery blade and a lighter edge. His guard is a gold circle with two small gold protuberances or "wings" on the sides of a pulled back gold spiked cross-guard with a red semi-circle at the curved bottom as a gold ornate ornamentation. The ornamentation itself is under the red semi-circle part of the cross-guard while the grip itself on him is white and thin, with a golden decorated top and a pointy sword pommel. There was also a metal-plated blue hover board with a yellow stripe ringing around it and a grey foot panel with striations. Next to them lay two blue bags. Sonic walked up to one bag and saw other clothes and a set of spare gloves and shoes in it. In the other there were his MP3 player, various consoles and games with his adventures such as Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Colors, Sonic Forces.
(Music: Start Up Your EX Gear - Sonic Riders OST)
-"(Well, at least I won't get too bored here.)" - Sonic thought with a smile on his face.
-"You know what these things are?"- Hanzō asked Sonic, pointing to the sword and board.
-"Yes, this sword is called Caliburn. I used it when I was drawn into the world of Camelot. Then I had to fight the dark creatures, the knights of the Round Table, the huge dragons, the evil King Arthur, and Merlina." - Sonic said, counting on his fingers everything he had to fight in Camelot -"Thich board is called the Blue Star. I rode it at the EX World Grand Prix, racing with Jet." - Sonic showed them his board.
-"Interesting..."- Kiriya said, a bit curious about the boy's life.
(Music End)
-"Well, we will leave you to rest. Me and Kiriya need to discuss something." - Hanzō announced with a serious face, Sonic just nodded.
Sonic watched as the two men left the room. He quickly got out of bed and began to study his new look. He took off his t-shirt to see that he had a slightly muscular body.
(Music: Planet Wisp (Area) - Sonic Colors OST)
-"I like my new look. I always thought I was fat, but this world completely denies it."- Sonic said, admiring the new body.
But in Sonic's head, one thought constantly tormented him. Does he still have his speed? Sonic stood in the runner's position and in the glow of blue light, he stood near the door. Then he teased, wanting to use Spin Dash. He started spinning quickly in place and spinning like a wheel from a race car, then made a Jump Spin, then landed on his feet.
-"It's good that I still have my speed and skills. I couldn't imagine myself without them."- Sonic sighed with relief, already knowing that he had not lost his speed.
He then approached Caliburn and grabbed his handle to see if he could still speak. Sonic tapped his sword, thinking it would wake him up. But there was no answer. Then he shook it slightly, but again there was no answer. Sonic forgave himself and then sneered back into the bed and lay down with his hands behind his head.
-"(Sigh) I hope everyone will be okay when I'm gone. If I could tell them I was here (Sigh)."- Sonic sighed, thinking he wouldn't see his friends. He didn't have chaos emeralds with him, he didn't know if they were in this world at all. And even if they were, would he be with their help to go home.
With Hanzō and Kiriya
After leaving the room, Hanzō and Kiriya had a serious but also troubled facial expression. The person who wrote this letter asks them to train Sonic on the Shinobi to kill him later.
-"What do you think about it, Hanzō-sama?"- Kiriya asked.
-"We have no choice but to train him as a ninja. When Asuka returns, we'll make him a small offer to study at our academy." - Hanzō announced with a small smile.
-"Are you sure?"- Kiriya asked, somewhat surprised. At Hanzo National Academy, only five girls are taught, who are already Shinobi, and one of them is Asuka. It would be a shock to them (maybe in addition to a blonde) that from now on a boy will learn with them.
-"Remember Kiriya, we have no other option but to do it. If not, I can't imagine what's going to happen."- Hanzō said with a worried face. He knew that this person was not joking. Kiriya could only nod
As Hanzō said, there was no other option.
With Asuka
(Music: Planet Wisp (Act 1) - Sonic Colors OST)
Asuka went with a radiant smile. She was glad to meet a new friend, even if he was of the opposite sex. She went to her family restaurant, which her dad and grandfather founded together. She wanted to make Sonic no longer starve. Although Sonic's name seemed a little strange to her. Did his parents give him that name or did he call himself that? Asuka had to put those questions aside when she came to the restaurant. She came to her to say hello to her parents.
-"Hello Okāsan, Otōsan." - Asuka greeted.
-"Hello Asuka-chan. Has anything happened that you are so happy?" Asuka's mother asked.
-"I met a new friend today." Asuka replied with a radiant smile.
-"What does she look like?- Asuka's dad asked, joining the conversation.
-" Well... first of all, this new friend is not a girl, but... a boy."- Asuka, speaking the last word, appeared in her head a picture of Sonic with his smile.
"..."
"..."
"..."
-"A boy?" - Asuka's parents asked her only in one word, being in slight shock. Asuka just nodded
-"You heard this, darling . Our daughter finally found a boyfriend!" - Asuka's mom screamed gleefully, hearing that Asuka had found someone.
-"Yes. I'm very happy to hear that!" - her dad added.
-"He's not my boyfriend! We've just met!" - Asuka screamed with blushing cheeks, insealing that she and Sonic were a couple.
-"What's his name?- Asuka's mom asked, wanting at least to know her daughter's new friend's name.
-"He's called Sonic. She's a very nice person with a great sense of humor." - Asuka answered her mom.
-"Those thing happened that you came here?" Asuka's dad asked.
-" Yes. Sonic is currently in a school hospital and starving. I promised him that I would bring him some futomaki rolls and that's why I came here." Asuka replied.
-"Don't worry. I'm about to prepare them. You can wait a little." - Asuka's dad announced, going to the kitchen with a smile on his face.
-"Okay. Thank you, Otōsan." - Asuka thanked.
A dozen minutes later...
-"Here you go!"- Asuka's dad handed Asuka a box of ready-made futomaki rolls
-"Thanks, Otōsan. I hope that Sonic will like them ." - Asuka thanked.
-"Well, I'll be leaving now. Sonic must suffer from hunger." - Asuka said with care for him. She promised him that she would bring him futomaki rolls and she was going to keep her promise.
-"Okay, go for it. Asuka-chan, next time bring Sonic here. We'd love to meet him." - Asuka's mom wanted to meet this boy in person.
-"I promise. See you, Okāsan, Otōsan." - she said goodbye to her parents, then left the restaurant and immediately went to the school hospital.
Asuka quickly headed to his school to help him satisfy his hunger. She was very happy to meet a new friend. Only one question tormented her mind. How did Sonic find himself in that forest? She will have to ask him about it next time. Now another question has appeared in her head. Does Sonic like futomaki rolls? She knew nothing about him or what he liked to eat. She hoped Sonic wouldn't refuse them. If so, she will have to force him to eat them.
(Music End)
School hospital...
Asuka was seen heading to Sonic's room when she noticed her grandfather and teacher with a serious but also troubled face.
-"Ojīchan, Kiriya-sensei, what's wrong?"- Asuka asked them what drew their attention.
-"Asuka, I'll go straight to the point... Would you have anything against a new member in our class?" Kiriya asked with a serious face.
-"A new member?"- Asuka tried to process what she had just heard. She and her classmates will have a new member in the class. She was curious about who this new member might be. Suddenly, Asuka hit something. Her grandfather and teacher stood in front of Sonic's room. That' means, that the new member will be... he.
-"Do you mean that this new member is Sonic-kun?" - Asuka asked, still processing it. Hanzo and Kiriya nodded.
Asuka couldn't be happier. She could now spend more time with Sonic. She hoped her classmates would accept him, but she was also afraid of meeting him with a blonde. She had a bad feeling thinking about it.
The trio went inside to see Sonic lying on his bed with his hands behind his head. Sonic looked at them and smiled.
-,I didn't think I'd have guests. It was a bit boring here."- Sonic said, sitting down. Then he looked at the box that Asuka was holding.
-"What's in this box?"- Sonic asked, pointing his finger at the box.
-"I brought you some futomaki rolls. I hope you like it." - Asuka handed the box to Sonic, which he gladly accepted. Sonic was so hungry that he didn't care what he would eat. He wanted to have a full stomach to recover. He opened the box and saw the well-prepared futomaki rolls.
-"Let's eat!"- Sonic yelled, taking one bun in his hand. He bit one piece of rolls when suddenly his taste buds exploded. He has never eaten anything like this in his life.
-"It's delicious!"- Sonic yelled, with the stars in his eyes.Asuka giggled. Sonic began to eat all the rolls one by one.
-"I'm glad you like them."- Asuka said cheerfully.
-"I like them? I LOVE THEM!"- Sonic screamed again, really ingenching their taste. He will have to somehow give back to this girl for the kindness she has shown him. First she helped him in that forest, now she gave him food. Asuka has a really golden heart.
-"Sonic, we have two questions for you."- Kiriya interjected, and Sonic turned his head toward the two men.
-"Okay, let's hear them."- Sonic said.
-"The first question, what do you know about the ninja?" Hanzō asked first. Sonic was surprised a little by this question. He thought they would ask him about his health or something else, and here they ask him about the ninja. In his world he had one friend who was also a ninja.
-"You mean, those guys who live in the shadows, fight for justice, or in the name of evil?" - Sonic gave them his answer. Kiriya was a bit surprised by this. He thought the blue-haired boy knew nothing about the ninja, and yet he was wrong about it.
-"The second question,... Sonic, would you like to be a ninja?"- Kiriya asked him directly.
"..."
"..."
"..."
-"Huh?" - that was all Sonic could say at the moment. First they asked what he knows about the ninja, now if he wants to be a ninja. Sonic could only look at them bluntly.
Asuka looked at the whole scene and could not blame him for such a reaction. Not every day you meet people who offer you to become ninjas. If she had been in his place, she would have reacted the same way.
Sonic pondered this question. He knew nothing about this world, there was no one he knew.He had no choice but to agree to it.
-"Okay, I accept your offer."- Sonic smirked, raising his thumb up.
-"Really?" - Asuka asked him. She was really happy now to hear it. She will now have a new friend and learn about the Shinobi path.
-"Of course."- Sonic said with his distinctive smile, closing his right eye and showing his thumbs up
This is the beginning of a new adventure for Blue Blur. He has already met some nice people in this world. From tomorrow a new chapter in his life will begin here. Now he could only wait for what fate had prepared in his path.
