A Hedgehog Of Chaldea

Saber Wars


*?*

"What a wonderful day to relax and rest under the beautiful cloudy sky. It almost feels like I'm right back at home." Sonic is lying down on the ground

"So your world is just as peaceful as this, huh? That makes me want to visit your world even more now! However, some things around here aren't the real thing. Just a few things like the greeny around us."

"Haa! Yaa! I'll show you the skills I learned from my Master's! Noble Phantasm!"

"Fou... foou... (Blue... you are supposed to help Lily with her training... not just sleep everywhere we go...)." Fou said

"Don't worry; she's more vital than ever before. The amount of training we both have done while not clearing out singularities is on a whole other level. I'm just as proud of her." Sonic replied

"Foou... (Seriously...)"

"Don't worry, Fou. I witnessed his training with Lily in the past before. She has gotten stronger ever since Sonic summoned her." Mash said

"*Finishes Training* How was my training, Master? Have our training sessions finally paid off?" Lily asks

"They have worked wonders, Lily. I'm very proud that you came this far!" Sonic replied

"I knew I could count on you with my training. It's not very often you see a Master who's a swordsman before." Lily commented

"I was just as surprised as you when I found out that little piece of information from Senpai. I have to ask, though, does Sonic's training only affect you or the other yous?' Mash asks

"Good question, Mash. It only affects me since I consist of elements separated from the other men. I am the "if" of these Heroic Spirits you know of." Lily replied

"Fascinating. If I were one of these Heroic Spirits, I would've been considered an "if" for that specific Servant you mentioned, Lily." Sonic said

"You'll be an "if" as well? Interesting, please, Master, tell me how you'll be considered one of my other selves if you happened to be a Servant yourself." Lily asks

"I think it's a good time to discuss it with you and me first, Lily. Back in my world, I was teleported to this world filled with legendary heroes, and these Knights were called the Knight-"

While explaining his story, Sonic notices a rocket ship heading right towards them. His eyes widen, and he quickly gets up from the ground.

"Senpai? What's wrong?!" Mash confused

"We need to move! Look up!" Sonic shouted

Lily and Mash look up and quickly notice the rocket ship heading down towards them. Sonic, Lily, Mash, and Fou all began running out of the way as a few seconds later, the rocket ship slammed onto the ground, causing a massive crater around it and highly damaged.

"A rocket ship?" Sonic said

"Whoa! Where did that come from?!" Mash shock

"Beats me... But if I have to guess, it's probably from a galaxy far away from here." Sonic replied

"I don't detect anything that would be considered dangerous with this space object. Though it landed right, we placed our items; it's completely harmless in the end." Lily said

"What you're trying to say that stuff like this happens daily for a Servant?" Sonic asks

"That is correct, talking animal!" A female voice said

Sonic turns and notices a female person coming out from the damaged ship that crashed next to them.

"Apologies for almost everything, but I needed to make an emergency landing! I have to act fast, hey you! Saber Class!" The female said

"Me?"

"Your attitude is pathetic! However, I have noticed you have quite an arsenal of sword skills you used! In that case, fight me! I will show you what it means to be a true Saber! Also, it names Mysterious Heroine X! Now then, let's do this!" Mysterious Heroine X said

"S-Sure! Of course, I'll duel with anyone who stands in my way! A knight must protect their Master!" Lily confused

"Don't worry, Lily; I'll help you. *Takes Out A New And Improved Sword He Bought From Da Vinci's Shop From Its Scabbard*" Sonic preparing for battle

"Oh, so the talking Blue animal is also a swordsman? You aren't a Servant, aren't you?" Mysterious Heroine X asks

"Nope! I am a Hedgehog who likes to spend his days running while fighting against my enemies. I also happen to be a Master after an incident before as well." Sonic replied

"You are quite the unique person I've seen. But in this case, Hedgehog. Anyway, enough talk, let's fight!" Mysterious Heroine X shouted

"Ready for another training session Lily?" Sonic asks

"Ready, Master!" Lily replied

"Alright then, let's do this!" Sonic shouted

Moments later, Sonic and Lily began charging toward Heroine X with their swords ready. Heroine X also charges towards both as well soon after. Lily lunges at Heroine X and unleashes several sword slashes in Heroine X's way, but X blocks each sword slash with her sword quickly, cuts her sword at Lily, and pushes Lily away from her. Sonic then jumps at X and unleashes multiple sword slashes at X. X also unleashes multiple sword slashes, and the two clanging swords repeatedly, with sparks igniting each time they clang swords. As the two are clanging swords, Lily jumps right at X, performs a quick attack on her multiple times, and knocks her away from Sonic. X skids to the ground as she quickly regains her balance and charges at Sonic and X again. As Sonic jumps out from her, Lily backflips behind as she charges her sword up. Moments later, she begins running super fast towards Mysterious Heroine X as both clanged swords at each other, causing a shockwave around them. Soon, the two unleashed a barrage of sword slashes at each other, each swing causing a shockwave. Sonic and Mash watch as Lily keeps the same speed as Mysterious Heroine X, continuing to attack while dodging each attack from X. The two continued to go back and forth for a few seconds, trying to land a hit on one another, but one was faster than the other before attacking. Sonic then takes a few seconds before running towards Mysterious Heroine X at high speed. Before Mysterious Heroine X can even react, Sonic slashes his sword right at her and knocks her away from Lily as she slams her sword onto the ground, stopping her from going further away.

"*Surprise* He wasn't joking; that animal is quite fast. I didn't even see him come right towards me..." Mysterious Heroine X said

Lily and Sonic began charging at Mysterious Heroine X as both jumped simultaneously and headed straight down at X with their swords ready. Mysterious Heroine X charges up her sword and unleashes a power at both Sonic and Lily, causing them to be knocked away from X. Mysterious Heroine X then lunges at both Sonic and Lily. Still, Lily performs a spin move and hits X in her shin, causing her to tear up and jump away from them.

"*Trying To Hide The Pain* O-Okay... I didn't expect novices like you two to outmatch me... ow... After all... this was a warm-up exercise either way..."

"Sooo... Is the duel over and something? We can go on if you like to." Sonic asks

"S-Sure... will fight again... to be honest, I was holding back from the warm-up..." Mysterious Heroine X replied

"I-I think I will just consider this match a draw," Mash said

"*Rubbing Her Shin* I-I'm Heroine X, as you remember! I'm the ultimate Saber!" Heroine X shouted

"Who knew someone that amazing could wear a tracksuit and still be considered a wielder of the holy sword," Lily said

"And I thought you were required to wear armor when wielding a sword like that..." Sonic commented

"And how would you know, Blue animal? I thought you were just regular old clueless Master." Heroine X said

"Was my swordsman not enough to convince you just now?" Sonic said

"Anyway... Heroine X, right? Why did you attack us suddenly?"

"I just told you that I'm the ultimate Saber Class Servant. Normally, the original storyline is that I come and become this Novice teacher after seeing our duel just now. Her Master has everything under control while training her. However, that doesn't stop me from coming as I, Heroine X, have a critical mission for all of you. But first, let me join Blue in training you, who calls herself Saber Lily." Heroine X said

"That would be wonderful! What do you think, Sonic?" Lily asks

"I'll allow it! The more, the merrier." Sonic replied

"Wow, that was easy... A-Anyway, fate forced Du Stallion II to crash land here. Allow me to show you two that I'm a first-rate Saber!" X shouted

"That's nice and all, but what is this mission you just mentioned?" Sonic asks

"...Oh, gather the three kinds of materials that possess mysterious powers which are spread across this world. They have fallen from my spacecraft. I cannot return home if you don't gather and repair them." X explained

"..."

"Don't give me that look!" X shouted

"Awww... Don't worry, Master and I will help gather the materials and repair your ship," Lily said

"Wonderful! That's what I like to hear! This spacecraft will probably summon many monsters. Huge mobs will descend on it to make it their own. defeat them, and gather superparticles called "Atrium."Atrium is energy particles present throughout the universe. It seems impossible, but I can make this work if we get some." X said

"Look likes another side quest has begun, right, Mash?" Sonic asks

"And it probably won't be the last, either, Senpai," Mash replied

"That's what I like to hear! From now on, we must be fierce as demons. We will cut down all Saber-faces we run into. Even if they're not Saber-faces, just looking like one is also a sin!" X said

"And what does all of this have to do to train Lily? This isn't any training Lily and I have done in the past." Sonic said

"Don't question it, and let's go," X said

"Don't worry, Master. If she knows what's she doing, then I'll be fine." Lily replied


*Later*

"So you happen to be a Master from another world?" X said

"That's the gist of it. However, that world isn't directly in this galaxy. It's completely different, thanks to ol Egghead back home." Sonic replied

"And you happen to be a swordsman as well? If that isn't the strangest thing I have ever heard. Then nothing will ever top that. I mean, seriously, a Hedgehog who can pick up a sword and use it just as well as another swordsman. It's strange." X commented

"It's like Senpai is hiding stuff from us that we don't know about just yet," Mash said

"Don't worry, guys; I'll eventually spit out one of the main secrets as a swordsman myself. It will make you shock." Sonic replied

"It's probably something boring." Heroine X said

"Anyway... X, I have a question for you... How will you be able to up Lily with the Altrium we gather? It's completely different than her normal training session with Senpai." Mash asks

"Oh, I never explained that, didn't I? Altruism is an almighty energy particle, which is what my spacecraft is powered by. The Spirit Origin Enhancement Device inside my spacecraft is called "Adam Kadmon." Lily can be physically enhanced when this device is fed enough Altrium." X explaining

"Really, huh? This almost sounds like Chaos Energy Lily currently has inside of her." Sonic said

"Chaos Energy? What the hell is that?" X asks

"It's almost like that "Altrium" energy particle you mentioned. However, they come from powerful emeralds called Chaos Emeralds. Wielding Chaos Energy inside you increases your strength and makes your attacks more powerful to use for battle. That is why Lily and Mash have Chaos Energy inside them as they were transferred from my body to theirs." Sonic replied

"I see... so magical energy isn't the source of energy for Servants, huh?"

"Oh, magical energy still is. It's just that Chaos Energy decides to work it instead." Sonic replied

"I have yet to use that energy source from Master. But promise me one day that I will and show Master I can reach levels never succeeded before!" Lily said

"I still don't know how to use Chaos Energy and convert it to my Noble Phantasm... However, Senpai understands and will do as much as possible to achieve that goal." Mash said

"Wow, looks like fate decided that you were fit for a Master, Hedgehog," X said

"Or, you know, trying to save others in the process of becoming one myself," Sonic replied

"I found some! I found some, General! Now, this is a true dreamland! No doubt, this mountain of treasure will make us fat stacks!"

"Why am I suddenly getting goosebumps?!" Mash said

"*Appears* *Gasp* I can't believe it! No matter where I go, this Hedgehog is surrounded by beautiful women! From the sweet Mashmallow and a petite, kawaii golden-haired Knight Princess... Good lord! Tell me, Sonic! How do you get the girls easier than I do!? They would be better off seeing a huge stack of treasures I own! Serious!" Teach begged

"*Scratching His Head Confused* What? What are you talking about? These are just my friends... nothing else." Sonic replied

"Lies! There's something within you that women appreciate! I must take that away from you now!" Teach said

"I knew it was Teach all along! And why is Gilles next to you?" Mash asks

"No time for questions! We're on land now! There are no hags to flog me on the back of the head! Get it all! Oh, General, you take one too!" Teach said

"..."

"What a turn of events that is going on here..." Sonic commented

"Fine. I may not look it, but I am somewhat of an art connoisseur. I have an affinity for old relics. However, I have no interest in women. I learned my lesson from Francesca, so split them as you please." You're pretty shy, aren't you, General!" Teach said

"Woo-hoo! As expected of the famous Bluebeard!"

"Dhuhuhuhuhu! But don't get carried away just because the General is a gentleman. I'm taking Mash and the Knight Princess from Master! I'll stick you in a barrel if you lay a hand on them. And the track blue tracksuit, not anywhere near my strike zone. Who was it that liked pretty young girls? Was it Rackam? He was pretty sad when Mary deceived him." Teach said

"!"

"The General's getting excited! Could it be that the tacky blue tracksuit is his fetish? Not bad for an art connoisseur... Not! Wah-hah-hah! When the General is like this, he is quite frightening! Tacky tracksuit, take my advice and make a run for it. It just might save you, you know..."

All of a sudden, X slashes Gilles without any warning.

"Sorry. I killed him out of reflex. But it still doesn't matter. He is a Saber Class, after all." X said

Sonic notices Gilles giving a grin as he tries to snap his finger at him.

"Hey Gilles, what's wrong? You never acted this way before." Sonic said

"I wished I invited someone else other than the General... Who knew he'd be defeated before he could even draw his sword... But it's like he was useful in the first place. A huge loss to Blackbeard... Anyway, As another gentleman, I will not abide by this! You, tacky-track-suit, look more like a bad guy than us!" Teach said

"How do you know him, Sonic? How are you used to him talking nonsense?" X asks

"You meet interesting ones when you adventure throughout the world," Sonic replied

"I see... Don't worry; I'll dispose of him right now." X said

"Allow me to fight as well!" Lily said

"Just don't kill him. Just teach him a lesson." Sonic replied

Sonic, Lily, and X ready their swords, preparing to fight. Mash watches with a "Are you kidding me?" look.

"For once, I regret being a Shield Servant... I want a sword of my own as well!" Mash shouted

Moments later, Sonic, Lily, and X all charge toward Teach and the pirates. The pirates also charge toward the four, but X is faster than them as she slashes each with swift sword slashes, dropping them one by one without breaking a sweat. Lily charges up her sword and unleashes a sword slash at a Pirate, followed by a spinning sword attack that knocks the pirate away from Lily. Two more pirates appear behind Lily and attack her by dodging them easily, countering back with quick attacks right at them, and knocking them away from her soon after. Sonic blocks each of the pirate's slashes, who was currently trying to attack him, and jumps at him in perform a three-combo sword attack at him, throwing him back towards Teach as the two hit each other and fall to the ground. X noticed the opening and took it as she charged up her sword and lunged toward Teach. The pirate sees X heading towards it and makes a run for it. Teach soon after is hit by a barrage of sword slashes by X, which he couldn't counter while yelling pain. As X slashes down Teach with her sword, Lily jumps over X and kick's Teach in the face, knocking him from his balance and dropping him down to the ground, dizzy.

"It feels so good being kicked by a woman..." Teach said

"Still staying nonsense, huh? Guess I'll just continue my attack." X said

"Why must you hurt me physically? OW! I wish you wouldn't press that glowing blade against my back! It looks precious!" Teach said

"Her sword is amazing, isn't it?" Lily said

"More amazing than previous sword fighters I met before," Sonic said

"It maintains its classic and noble design, but it's a weapon that holds many functions. I can sense the freedom in its design!" Lily added up

"The more Lily talks. The more Blackboard is going to be a roasted pirate..." Mash said

"Don't worry, Mash. I understand X's pain from her damaged ship. I shall return the parts that I picked up. That goes for the General as well." Teach said

"Oh, my. Thank you! I'm sorry about what we did earlier. I just can't stop myself whenever I see a Saber Class. Gilles, right? What are you doing at this freedom nerd's party?" X asks

"..."

"Dammit! Forget about mister gloomy. Let's talk about Lily's training. How about if I, Blackbeard, train you myself? I will turn my defeat into an opportunity. Try using your Noble Phantasm on me once. This is the kind of breathtaking training experience I can offer you. How about it?" Teach asks

"What do you think, Master? Please allow me to! Oh, let me cut your bonds!" Lily said

"Umm, Senpai? I don't think this is such a good idea-"

"Don't worry. I know what's coming. Sure Lily, go right ahead! Just take a deep breath and aim right at him." Sonic replied

"Okay, let's begin!" Lily said

"Fool! You have activated my trap card!" Teach said

Moments later, Lily activates her Noble Phantom and fires a beam at Teach. However, instead of hitting Teach directly in the face. The Beam instead hits Teach's gentleman area painfully.

"GAH! Why in the groinnnn!? Why do I always get the brunt of stuff like these!?" Teach in pain

"I-I'm sorry... My hand slipped! I-I'll try it one more time!" Lily said

"Wait? Again?! You want me to get in the same spot again?!" Teach shock

"P-Please! I'll do my very best!"

"Come on, Teach. You have to give her the benefit of the doubt. You can't say no to such a wonderful lady, can't you? She didn't mean to do it on purpose." Sonic asks

"...You're right, Sonic. With those cute, puppy dog eyes! I cannot say no. But I'm serious, watch what you're doing! Make sure you aim for my chest, okay? I can at least get my guard up there." Teach accepting once again

"Thank you! All right, here goes! Caliburn, cleanse this evil... Oops!"

The Beam once again hit Teach in the gentlemen's area, this time even more painful.

"AHHHH! AGAIN!" Teach shouted

"That's gotta leave a mark..." Sonic commented

"I'm sorry...! The n-Next time I'll aim good and proper at your chest!" Lily apologized yet again

"That's fine... Your Noble Phantasm is fine just the way it is... I've reached my limit so I will be going... General?" Teach said

"Sure. You've certainly had a terrible time of it. Pirates lose their "balls" when they're on land." Gilles said

"..."

"..."

"..."

"What is that supposed to mean?" Sonic confuse

Gilles notices Lily, X, Sonic, and Mash giving him weird looks at him, making him walk away all by himself soon after and leaving Teach behind.

"I don't know what he just said, But I think we should get going... And forget all of this even happened..." Sonic said

"Good idea. But, before we do, this piece of filth is a nuisance. Does anyone care if I burn him to ash?" X is looking at Teach

"Damn! You're an evil one! Someone, help me! I've had enough of this Saber-face!" Teach shouted


*Later*

After that weird confrontation with Gilles and Teach and dealing with wyverns soon after, Sonic and the others arrive in Rome.

"The strength of my Noble Phantasm has vaguely improved. Thank you so much, Master and Mrs. X!" Lily said

"Don't mention it, Lily. Always there to help out a friend." Sonic replied

"With her Master being a swordsman as well... It's slowly progressing Lily's strength... not meeting the quota." X said

"There goes X again with the muttering... Anyway, I think it's a good time to tell about something." Mash said

"What can that be?" Sonic asks

"By the way, Ms. X, you came here on that rocket, but which land are you a Heroic Spirit of?" Lily asks

"She just went straight into the question!?" Mash thought

"You want to know my Origins? Do you have a reason for wanting to know?" X asks

"No... After a time, you helped me with my Master my training. It hurts not knowing that person who's helped so much." Lily replied

"What? Am I that suspicious then that Blue animal here with us? Calm down, X... don't go on a rant about your looks. Fine, I'll tell you stuff about me. I am a Servant that comes from outer space! A Heroic Spirit from the future Servant-verse!" X explaining

"A Servant-verse, huh? Interesting..." Sonic said

"If you are thinking that as the Throne of Heroes. You'll be wrong. It is where Servants conduct Servant-like deeds with a space-like worldview. It's a world where we have been free from our origins' burden." X said

"If I have to guess... your world is just like mine. Filled with creatures and stuff like that, am I correct?" Sonic asks

"Yep! It seems like bf we have something in common regarding our homes." X replied

"What do you mean that you came from the future? Unlike Rayshift, is that rocket a simple time machine?" Mash asks

"You mean time jumps? I'm pretty sure it can. It warps, after all. A journey through space is impossible unless you can travel faster than light." X replied

"I can outrun light with my speed! Just watch!" Sonic said

Moments later, Sonic speeds away and returns to the same spot in under a second.

"See?" Sonic said

"Whoa! What did you just do right now?" X said

"I just ran across the earth and straight back here. Pretty cool, huh?" Sonic replied

"Wait, what?! You ran around the planet like it was no tomorrow?!" X shock

"Hehe! They don't call me Sonic for nothing." Sonic replied

"That was amazing, Master! I wish I could run as fast as you!" Lily said

"Maybe someday in the future, I'll teach you speed," Sonic replied

"Anyway, back to the topic. I came to this era to save the world. The future that I am in is facing a crisis of destruction now. For some reason, our existence is on the verge of being destroyed. I came here to eradicate the cause of it... But I couldn't stand to ignore you, Lily. I'm also here to help your Master out with your training." X said

"Even when you've been given the mission to save the world, you can still make time to train me... I have nothing but respect for you!" Lily said

"We appreciate the hand of helping us deal with the extinction of humanity," Sonic replied

"...I guess Lily got X there, huh? X is still pretty suspicious, ...but with Lily around, I don't think she'll be a problem." Mash said

"Ho there!"

"What was that?" Lily said

"Ho there, everyone! I came out here to see if the rumors that a ship fell from the sky here. Though, I am exhausted from all the traveling. You could've carried me here, Master!" Nero said

"Nero? What are you doing here? You came from Italy to here walking?" Sonic surprise

"You shouldn't be surprised about it, Master. Besides, she just wandered around enemy territory..." Tamamo No Mae said

"Seems like you arrived first here, Sonic. Are you able to understand the aliens' language as well?" Emiya said

"Are you talking about the current Wisps I rescued up to this point? Or are you talking about X right here?" Sonic asks

"If we are indeed meeting Aliens. Then first we must greet them! With kindness, sincerity, and passion! Just like we did with our little Blue Master when we first met him!" Nero said

"Uoooooohhh! Uaaaaaaaah! Diiiiiiiieeeee! Red oneeeeeee!"

Suddenly, X fires a beam at the three without warning. The three quickly dodge the Beam, shocked by the sudden attack.

"Whoa, X!" Sonic shock

"What the? That one suddenly fired a beam at us! And she's even specific about the color!" Tamamo No Mae said

"Nope! We certainly cannot communicate with this one! They must be taught a severe lesson!" Nero said

"Did they already forget I'm not part of this?" Sonic confuse

"Let us begin our fight, Mrs. X!" Lily said

"Wait!"

Moments later, Lily and X charge at Tamamo, Nero, and Emiya as all five Servants are ready to duke each other out. But before they can even begin fighting each other, Sonic speeds right in between the five and stops all of them from going further fighting each other.

"What are you doing, Sonic? I was just about to kick these guys' butts." X said

"You guys must be mistaken. This person here is no alien; she's just a Servant like the rest of you here who happens to not be from this world." Sonic said

"Like you who came from a different world as well," Emiya said

"Correct. We shouldn't just fight anyone as soon as we meet them. It's not my thing." Sonic replied

"But she tried to attack us, Sonic. You think your first move when this happens is to fight back, right?" Tamamo said

"That may be true, but at least try to understand X here," Sonic replied

"..."

"I think it's better off we don't fight. After all, Master has been here longer than us." Emiya said

"Hey, what's the hold up here? I'm trying to take down these guys with my sword!" X said

"We happen to stop because our Master and Mash are also here. But what the heck are you anyway? Now that I look at you, I feel like I've seen you somewhere before." Nero asks

"That is none of your business, but I say it just because of Sonic's presence. I am Heroine X. Justice from the future who is here to correct Sabers." X said

"(Coughs)"

"Why the sudden cough just now, Archer?" Nero said

"It appears that the most important thing is to repair your spacecraft. And Miss Lily is currently in training with Master here as well." Emiya said

"That's right. Even though you're with that Red one, you are sharp." X replied

"To avoid misunderstandings, I do not recall ever becoming this Saber's ally. I am entirely neutral. So allow me to you out Miss Lily as well with Master." Emiya said

"Glad to have you all join us with Lily's training," Sonic said

"Thank you! Isn't this great, Ms. X! We suddenly have two more who will join us in my training!" Lily sad

"...I guess I have no choice. I've predicted the monsters gathering here will only get stronger. Lily will feel more assured with you at her side." X said

"Hey, wait, before we head on. What about Tamamo? Are you going to join us as well?" Sonic asks

"I have a small role in this part of the story, but When we get to the Japan stage, Ushiwakamaru, the others, and I will have a great battle with the Japanese Servants. I now trust that time will come and conserve my energy. —Therefore, I shall stay behind the scenes. Tamamo said before walking away

"What just happened?" Mash said

"Beats me... But anyway, let's all head on our journey to make Lily stronger." Sonic said
