A Hedgehog Of Chaldea

Onigashima


*Chaldea*

"Alright, Roman. Just get to the point, where is this Singularity located now?" Sonic asks

"It's located in Japan once again. Moreover, it's not that far from when you were in Kyoto. We've encountered unusual circumstances before, but this one takes the cake. I can't predict what kind of situation awaits you at your Rayshift destination." Romani replied

"Whatever's waiting for me there. I'm sure it'll be a piece of cake to fix it like the others." Sonic said

"Fou! Foooou! (You've been doing adventures on your own, Sonic. Please, allow me to join you in this adventure this time. I want to experience how you do things by yourself!)." Fou said

"So you finally want to tag along, huh? I have no problem with that, Fou. Come right along!" Sonic replied

"*Jumps Onto Sonic's Head* Fou! Fou! (It's been a while since I've been up here! I can't wait to experience an adventure with you, Blue!)." Fou said

"Just hang on as always, buddy. Things are about to get adventurous!" Sonic replied


*Japan*

Soon enough, Sonic Rayshifts into Japan on the beach alongside Fou.

"And here we are once again. Japan. This time, located on a beach." Sonic Looking Around

"I have confirmed the coordinates. You're located on an island near Honshu." Romani said

"Honshu, huh? Man, you can call this a World Tour if you know what I mean." Sonic Joked

"Literally. You've been to North America, Europe, and Asia in under a year. You could say you have fans worldwide that want to meet a Hedgehog like you." Romani said

"Anyway, It's a good thing I brought a companion with me this time," Sonic said

"It's a pleasure to be with you, My Lord. Please, if you have any concerns about our surroundings. Feel free to ask me." Ushiwakamaru said

"Oh yea, I forgot she would usually call me Lord instead of Sonic... But I'll let it slide like usual..." Sonic thought

"Thank you, Ushi! I'm sure we will be a great team on this adventure! Now then, from what Roman told us. Where exactly is this Island located?" Sonic asks

"Let me take a look around... Wait, I can't believe this. Quite mysterious. The shape...of this Island. Can this be the rumored..." Ushiwakamaru said

"I'm guessing from your reaction. This Island is not normal." Sonic said

Moments later, a group of enemies appeared and began charging toward Sonic and Ushiwakamaru. Both looked at each other and nodded as both lunged toward the enemies. Sonic quickly curls into a ball and spins dashes around the enemies, using his speed to create a firewall. Preventing the enemies from escaping while Ushiwakamaru jumps into the, pulls out her sword from its sheath, and performs a spinning sword tornado attack that slices the enemies in half and spews blood—vanishing away soon after.

"Is that it?" Sonic said

"Ugh, how disappointing. I expected more from our opponents. But I expect to see more very soon. We aren't humans, so we are leveled with those." Ushiwakamaru said

"Heh, no matter what stops us. We will get through it with no problem! Now, where exactly are we?" Sonic replied

"Oh right, my bad. We are currently in Onigashima. No wonder the data on this Island doesn't match that of the previous Singularities. I know it's unbelievable, but it seems we're in the world of fairy tales." Romani said

"Heh, this is another story adventure for me, huh?" Sonic said

"Even I am not aware of this Island. It probably did not exist during my brother's lifetime." Ushiwakamaru said

"A fantasy that was never meant to be is manifesting. In other words, there's a possibility it was created. An island of this size? Sonic, you may not know this, but in our history. Even though that Island was mentioned in human history, it didn't exist in history." Romani explained

"Sounds interesting. But whoever created such a fantasy to reality must be someone powerful. But not as powerful as the Chaos emeralds. You see, instead of creating a new island. They can reshape the face of reality altogether if collected all seven. So in theory, an island like this would be considered real if the Chaos Emeralds decided to reshape reality." Sonic said

"That is correct, Docter! Looking deeper into the Emeralds, they are indeed able to reshape the reality of their desire. This means if reality was reshaped here, Servants of the past could all live during the same period if Chaos Emerald wished to do so. They may look small, but those Emeralds are quite amazing. Don't you think?" Da Vinci said

"What?! Why didn't anytime tell me about this before? I never knew something like those Emeralds could do such miracles. A-Anyway... you two go ahead and keep searching around. I need to talk with Da Vinci about the true powers of those Emeralds." Romani said

"Apologies for the wait, Ushiwakamaru. Let's get going." Sonic said

"No need to apologize, my Lord. Those gems of yours are quite indeed unique. Not only do I study the history inside Chaldea, but I wish to study that beautiful gem of yours. But someone like me wouldn't want to change history for my benefit." Ushiwakamaru replied

"Yea, no kidding. I rather let everything play on its own and not change the accomplishments of history by regular humans." Sonic said

"Humans have come a long way, haven't they?" Ushiwakamaru said


*Later*

Sonic and Ushiwakamaru soon made their way to a beach where it was peaceful and quiet as they walked and had a conversation together without noticing. Sonic trips and falls to the sand, where he slowly looks back and sees a strange person on the floor, unconscious and not moving an inch.

"My Lord, it appears to be that you tripped on someone without noticing," Ushiwakamaru said

"*Looking At The Person* Yea, I can see that. What's someone like this doing here alone in the middle of the Island?" Sonic said

"Ohhh... Who... are... you?" The Person said

"I should be asking you the same question as well. What the heck are you doing here alone?" Sonic asks

"...My name is Fuuma Kotarou. For some reason, that is beyond me, and I am the fifth Kotarou." Fuuma introducing himself

"Fuuma Kotarou?" Sonic said

"Fuuma Kotarou!? The leader of the Fuuma ninja and disruption brigade of Soshu province that served under the Hojo clan?" Romani shock

"...Yes, that one. Please don't get the wrong idea, but are you a talking Blue creature who happens to be a Master?" Fuuma said

"That is correct! Names Sonic The Hedgehog! The fastest Hedgehog to ever live!" Sonic replied

"I see... I have never seen a talking animal like you, but at least you seem friendly. Nice to meet you, Sonic..." Fuuma replied

"My Lord! We have company!" Ushiwakamaru said

Sonic looks around and notices a massive army of enemies he and Ushiwakamaru fought just a few minutes ago and begins to surround them. Sonic and Ushiwakamaru prepare themselves for battle as Fuuma slowly but still stands up to prepare to fight alongside them.

"I may be weak... But I can still fight..." Fuuma said

"That's what I like to hear! Now then, let's get this party started!" Sonic replied

As the three were about to fight the vast army of enemies. They suddenly engine roared from the mountains; the three looked at each other as they looked up and noticed a motorcycle riding off the hill and landing next to them, crushing a couple. The three are surprised by the sudden appearance, but Sonic quickly sees who the Person riding the motorcycle is. It was none other than Sakata Kintoki. Sakata looks around and notices the vast army of enemies surrounding the three. He smirks before starting his engine again and drifting around the three, slamming into every enemy and crushing them as well as Sakata enjoyed every moment of it. For a minute, Sakata defeated every enemy while leaving blood marks underneath his motorcycle. Soon enough, the enemy army was defeated as Sakata stopped in front of the three and began laughing.

"Hey there, Boss! Great seeing you again! I heard you were coming, so I decided to come and visit you!" Sakata said

"Hey there, Skata! *Walks Up To Sakata As They Gave Each Other Fist Bumps* I see that you changed attributes to make yourself look cool!" Sonic replied

"D-Did you just say Kintarou?! Where is he, My Lord?" Ushiwakamaru said

"He's right here, Ushi," Sonic replied

"Is that him? The only thing I see is a disgusting creature trying too hard to look like a foreigner..." Ushiwakamaru replied

"What!? That's...Sakata...Kintoki?" Fuuma shock

"Can you hear that, Boss? *Loud Engine Noises* Listen! Listen to it! You know you can hear it! Listen to this bad boy! The awesome acceleration blasts it across a hundred miles in an instant! This jet engine would blow away a hundred bears if they stood in your way!" Sakata said

"It almost sounds identical to the one my friend Shadow rides. But yours is way cooler than his!" Sonic replied

"HAHAHA! That's what I like to hear, Boss! This is truly goooooooolden! This is the Hyper Ultra Dangerous Machine. Golden Bear! Hey, pup! You get it, too, huh? You show promise! How about I dye your fur gold, huh?" Sakata said

"Fou! (I would rather be painted Blue than gold!)," Fou said

"Anyway, I noticed that three were in a tight situation. But with Boss and his history of going on for several hours. It would've been a one-sided fight. However, I wanted the fun, so that's why I am here." Sakata said

"Well, it's for sure you have gotten the fun. Anyway, thanks for the hand, Sakata. Care to tag along with us?" Sonic asks

"HAHAHA! Hell yea, Boss!"

"Alright, now let's get to it! With our skills, we should be able to reach up this mountain very quick and easy." Sonic said


Ushiwakamaru and Fuuma told Sonic about the three gates blocking their path and that there was no other way around. However, Sonic thought outside the box and said there is always a way and that he's used to stuff like this. Soon all four easily make theirs towards this first gate the Servants mentioned. As the four jumped rock to rock towards the first gate, somewhere far, someone was watching them jump closer and closer to their next destination. The individual watch as Sonic can keep up with the likes of Servants making their way up towards the mountains.

"*Giggles* What a cute little creature. I'm impressed that he can keep up with those three behind him. But I should probably stay back for now and learn more about this creature." The Person said


*At The First Gate*

Finally, soon enough, Sonic, Sakata, Ushiwakamaru, and Fuuma all made it to the first gate of the mountain.

"My Lord, we have finally made it here and without any other problems," Ushiwakamaru said

"And with style as well. I'm still surprised Sakata could maintain our progress with his motorcycle here." Sonic said

"HAHA! I'm used to terrains like this, Boss! Not even rocky areas are going to stop Golden Bear!" Sakata replied

"You hold such immense speed, Mr. Sonic. Tell me, how does it feel to run at such high velocity that you don't feel dizzy at all?" Fuuma asks

"Easy, Fuuma! I was born with such speed, even when I was just a little Hedgehog. I ran faster than anyone that I had ever met! That's why I'm the protector of worlds and saving them from evil. Like here currently!" Sonic replied

"Sounds like they needed a protector for humans on land and chose you to become it, My Lord. That's already an accomplishment." Ushiwakamaru said

"Hell, only one Hedgehog protecting an entire planet. That's some serious work for someone like you, Boss!" Sakata said

"And I enjoy every bit of it! Now, since we're here at the first gate and after analyzing it. We all jump over the wall as we did just now and keep going." Sonic said

"To be honest, I thought you would make another one of your crazy moves that involve your speed. But that seems fair." Sakata said

"Everyone, we got company!" Ushiwakamaru shouted

The four turn their heads and notice a giant Oni walking toward them with a big weapon on his shoulder. The Giant Oni then roars at them as it charges at full speed. Sakata quickly rides towards the Oni, jumping right at it, slamming his vehicle towards it, and knocking it off balance before driving on top of it and leaving marks on its stomach. Ushiwakamaru quickly charges toward the Oni and performs a series of slashes on the Oni, powerful enough to send the one straight towards the gate, slamming it and causing it to open. Fuuma appears in front of Oni, summons a giant shuriken, and throws it at the Oni, slicing it up while blood spews out of it. He then jumps at the Oni's face, grabs and spins around very fast, forming a tornado that spins the one around and sends it flying towards the gate again, hitting it and breaking it into pieces.

"The gate is open! Hurry!" Sonic said


*Later*

After defeating the first powerful Oni and advancing further, Sonic, Ushiwakamaru, Fuuma, and Skata arrive in a village-type area where it is almost dead, with only a few people around.

"What is this place? Where are we?" Sonic looking around

"It's slave settlement, Sonic. This is where Onis keep humans living on this Island." Fuuma said

"No way! How can they do such a thing to innocent humans? We need to save them from this Island!" Sonic said

"If we were to release them from these settlements and the labor camps, the one would just bring them all back," Fuuma replied

"Don't worry, Boss! You are the fastest thing alive! We will be able to save these humans with no wasted time. Think of that time you saved an entire country from war and its people. This whole thing is child's play compared to that!" Sakata said

"Would think there was at least one Person we could talk to... Ah, I think I see someone!" Ushiwakamaru said

"Yes, it is! What's up, Benkei! What brings you here today?" Sonic said

"Good day, Master and Lord Yoshitsune," Benkei replied

"Who the heck are you?" Ushiwakamaru said

"Haha! Don't you recognize me? We have met several times in Chaldea already. We are both Mr. Hedgehog's Servants. Or, as he likes to call us, friends. Ho-ho! I am Benkei, Musashibou Benkei." Benkei replied

"You're that very same Benkei? My Lord prefers seeing us as friends, and I don't mind. Benkei... I wouldn't mind calling you that... But aren't you just the one I pretend to ignore, Kaison..." Ushiwakamaru said

"I've noticed that your training together has gotten you stronger. Look, it's like Chaldea's Gym that we remodeled worked wonders!" Sonic said

"That is correct, Master. You should also join me in my training sessions once in a while as well. It's good for your health." Benkei replied

"Aside from bodybuilding and fitness... Why are you here?" Romani asks

"I am here to aid the Master and Lord Yoshitsune. There is another higher settlement, and I felt Master had arrived and decided to look for him but couldn't find him. I went elsewhere and searched about for you and eventually ended up here. I am thrilled we could meet up. Let us march forth and exterminate these!" Benkei said

"Something still feels off about you, but I can just dispose of you when I am done." Ushiwakamaru commented

"*Rubbing Back* I promise Ushiwakamaru that Benkei is just friendly like the others back in Chaldea." Sonic calming Ushiwakamaru down

"I love this dangerous feeling. It feels like a war!" Sakata said

"Sakata Kintoki. I had heard that you are a reckless individual, but you seem like a man of refined taste! Ho-ho!I want a sumo match here to deepen our friendship..." Benkei replied

"We can set up the Sumo fight later. Right now, we're trying to save the innocent from these or whatever they are called. And to do so, we need to fight the Ringleader for these creatures." Sonic said

"That is right, Master, whoever is behind all of this must be put to their place once and for all," Benkei said

"But first, we need to help these people here in this place. Sakata, you know how to cook. Mind cooking something up for everyone here?" Sonic asks

"I can only cook rice balls. Despite how I look, I was brought up by a wealthy samurai general. Fine, I'll get started cooking. Once that is done, we continue." Sakata replied


Arriving At A Checkpoint a little later, Sonic and his team broke into it and raided it. Unfortunately, they were taking down the whole crowd of Onis surrounding the area and causing damage. The ones noticing Sonic taking down many of the Onis on his own decided to retreat by preventing a fight with the Blue Blur, but we're either taken down by the Servants who were just as causing mayhem as well against them. Eventually, the five defeated the army of Onis as they continued on their journey to this Island.


*Later*

"Man, that was a great workout session back there! I recommend it to the other guys back at Chaldea." Sonic commented

"Hahaha! Nice joke, Master! Always keep a happy environment during times like these. Now, does anyone wants to stop by for some tea at a teahouse? I think it's just before the next gate. There is a teahouse at the first settlement that I went to. How about we go there to gather information?" Benkei asks

"Ooh! Taking a break at a rest stop during a trip is a real pleasure. I have no complaints about heading there first." Sakata said

"Yes. I'm thirsty too. *Get's Handed The Tea And Drinks It* This tea has a strange flavor... It is delicious, but... Hiccup!"

"Whoa, Ushi, are you okay? It seems like that drink was rather different than a usual tea..." Sonic asks

"*Drunk* There's nothing wrong with me, My Lord... Look... There is a jizo statue at the side of the road here. It looks just like my brother! Ah... My older brother! Well, who'd have thought I'd find such a fine gem in a place like this? ...It must be the work of a renowned stonemason or a monk. Then I must protect my dear brother. You're coming with me. Up you go! *Tucks The Jizo And Continues Walking While The Guys Just Starred At Her Confuse*."

As Ushiwakamaru wanders with the Jizo statue, a group of Onis appears in front of her and all charge at her. Ushiwakamaru, still drunk, lunges toward the Onis with her sword ready and battles them all by herself. The four others watched as Ushiwakamaru took down every single Onis by herself and with perfect precision. All while holding the Jizo statue on her arm. For a minute, Ushiwakamaru continues to take down each of the Onis until she completely defeats them all. Then, suddenly, the head of Jizo fell off its body and began rolling very fast.

"Ah! ...My brother's head has come off! My brother's head... Where is it? ...There it is! S-Stop!" Ushiwakamaru running towards the head

The four watch as the head rolls down from the mountain and into the water, pushing deeper into the sea.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"All right, shall we get going, my Lord? We should be able to reach our next destination very soon if we go now." Ushiwakamaru said

"Yea... Let's just continue our journey and pretend nothing ever happened..." Sonic replied


*Second Gate*

"And now we have arrived at the second gate. Where's this Oni that we are supposed to fight now?" Sonic said

"Hello, Master! Didn't expect your wife to be part of this story, huh? The only beautiful Tamamo-no-Mae!" Tamamo said

"Oh, brother..." Sonic whispers

"M-My Lord! Did she just call you your loving wife?" Ushiwakamaru shock

"Don't take it the wrong way Ushi, please!" Sonic replied

"Fox! What are you doing here?! Did you join the one?!" Sakata shock

"Isn't it obvious? This side quest Story's protagonist and his team are based on animals! I'm an animal as well! Look at these! What do you think these ears are for, huh? Do you understand!? I'm capable of tagging along with you guys!" Tamamo shouted

"My Lord... Is this how the female Servants treat you all the time?" Ushiwakamaru asks

"Not everyone..." Sonic replied

"That's why I forced myself here and hammered myself with wine! I let myself go and decided to stand in your way! I will have a role in this story! So let's fight, Master! I want you to pound me!" Tamamo shouted while drunk

Everyone's eyes widen, hearing what Tamomo just shouted now to Sonic.

"What? Did I say something wrong? I just said we should fight like how the story should go... right?" Tamamo said

"Boss... I think it's a good time to use that gem of yours to get us out of here." Sakata said

"Sure thing, buddy," Sonic replied

"WAIT! DON'T GO; I WANT TO BE HERE LONGER! PLEASE!" Tamamo shouted

"Chaos Control! *Teleports Away With The Group As Well*."

"Dammit... I knew I should've not drunk wine when I got here. Besides, my husband doesn't drink at all!" Tamamo said


*Someplace Else*

After the weird encounter with Tamamo, the team teleported in front of a building cleaner than the other buildings surrounding it.

"Where did we teleport at?" Fuuma asks

"We teleported in front of the teahouse, I told you. What a coincidence." Benkei replied

"Hello! Welcome! Welcome! Oh my, look's like my little Hedgehog decided to visit our teahouse today." Shuten Looking At Sonic

"Hey there, Shuten. I didn't expect to see you around here." Sonic replied

"Come on, Ibaraki. Get out here, and our Master is here."

"*Comes Out Of The House* Really, huh? Well, you got me there. Suppose our Master was an ordinary human. I would've just ignored it. But for someone nonhuman like Sonic here. I'll make an acceptance." Ibaraki said

"I can't believe it's them! I can sense them hundreds of miles away!" Sakata said

"Ugh, why did you bring that bastard here around with you, Sonic," Ibaraki said

"What do you mean? He's a friend as well. But anyway, what exactly are you two trying to do with this shop?" Sonic folding arms

"Is this another attempt for you to spend time with Boss alone again?" Sakata asks

"...N-No..."

"...N-No..."

"I told you they will soon find out about our plan!" Ibaraki said

"Don't look at me. It was the kid's fault that spilled the beans," Shuten replied

"Alright, let's calm down and focus on the current situation. I'm guessing you two aren't involved with the things happening around this Island, right?" Sonic asks

"Not. I have no clue whos behind all of this. We just arrived here to crush the ugly ones, but we found an interesting cup similar to the one back in Rashomon. After that, we decided to create this teahouse on this Island." Shuten replied

"The Holy Grail?"

"Something like that, but now as powerful as the one from before. I'm guessing." Romani said

"My little Hedgehog. Master, If that's okay with you, we would like to join in defeating this mess's mastermind. Is that okay with you? Once all of this is over, we can go on a romantic date together. Just the two of us." Shuten asks

"Your lucky that you summoned us before and are not a regular human being," Ibaraki said

"I'll pass with the dating part, but the sure thing, you guys! Anyone is welcome on our team!" Sonic replied

"Ah, don't be like that, sweetie. I swear our date will be extra fun once returning to my room." Shuten said

"*Unimpressed And Not Reacting* Uh-huh..." Sonic said

"Hey, Kid, mind letting me be with you on that thing of yours? Think of it as a journey towards the sun."

"Hey! What the hell?! I didn't say yes or no, and you still get on Golden Bear!" Sakata shouted

"Don't worry, Kid, I'll make it warm for you here," Shuten said

"Get off!"

"My Lord... I sometimes feel sorry for relationships between Servants." Ushiwakamaru said

"Not the weirdest people I've ever met," Sonic replied

As Sonic and his team began walking forward with their adventure. The exact figure from last time watches them from a safe distance, watching them all talking to each other.

"What eyesight. Interesting, I can feel the positive energy radiating from that Blue creature's body from here. So that little Blue animal can make peace with insects without sorting to violence? But I can help him with that more, alongside my son traveling with him."


*Third Gate*

"And we are the final gate of this fictional Island. It only took us a couple of hours, but we still made it here." Sonic said

"I have a feeling that this guard of this gate would be worse than Fox back down," Sakata said

"What makes you say that?" Ibaraki asks

"*Appears While Drunk* Hello, Master! Nice to see you again," Kiyohime said

"*Eyes Widen* K-Kiyohime?!" Sonic shock

"I guessed correctly..." Sakata said

"W-Why Master? Why would you continue with your adventure without me? Am I not important to you?" Kiyohime said

"N-No Kiyohime! You are one of my best friends! Of course, you are critical of me! It's just that I'm on a tight schedule and always hopping into Singaulritys on random days. Not being able to tell you in time." Sonic replied

"You can hear the fear in Master's voice while he speaks..." Benkei said

"N-No! I'm not scared at all!" Sonic said

"Then what's with all the stuttering, my Lord?" Ushiwakamaru said

"You are afraid of me, Master? *Begins To Tear Up And Kneels On The Ground, Crying* I knew it! I knew you were hiding things from me, Master! How can you be rude to me?! I've done so much, yet you still treat me like this? How could you!" Kiyohime crying

"*Looking Around, Trying To Find An Idea And Fast* Uh... Come on, Sonic... Think..." Sonic said

"Come on, Sonic. You're the subject of this mess. Tell her something that will make her feel better." Ibaraki said

"*Quickly Runs Up To Kiyohime And Places His On Her Back* U-Uh... Kiyohime... If it makes you feel better. You can join us until we complete this whole mission. How about that?" Sonic said

"*Still Crying*."

"*Takes A Deep Breath* Kiyohime... if it makes you feel better, I'll gladly spend the rest of this week with you. Just the two of us..." Sonic said while facepalming

"*Slowly Looks Up At Sonic* R-Really? Just the two of us together?" Kiyohime asks

"Y-Yes..."

"*Wipes The Tears Off Her eyes And Hugs Sonic* And that's a date for both of us. Please don't ever say such rude things to me again, Master. I love you with all my life!" Kiyohime said

"*Looks At The Other Servants While Taking A Deep Breath* Amy would kill me if she ever saw this..." Sonic said

"I'm also part of Master's Harem alongside you two here. What do you think about that?" Shuten asks

"*Blushing* I-I am only what my Lord calls me. A friend." Ushiwakamaru said

"What the hell are you talking about?! He may not be human but being part of that is still weird!" Ibaraki said

"Aw, don't hide your feelings for our sweetie here! I know deep down you both love him as much as Kiyohime here." Shuten said

"Hell... I'm glad we're part of that thing. Huh, fellas?" Sakata said

"Agree," Benkei said

"I almost certainly feel bad for Sonic here in this matter," Fuuma replied


*The Summit*

After dealing with Kiyohime and getting to return to Chaldea, the group continued walking until they eventually arrived at the Summit.

"And here we are! The Summit! The weather here may be bad, but it doesn't affect me!" Sonic said

"Uh! Look, everyone. Over there...!" Fuuma pointed out

"Is that... Raikou? Raikou, what in the world are you..." Ushiwakamaru said

"Wait a minute; I'm sensing something different about her..."

"Hello, Kintoki, it's been a while... I see that you have made friends along the way here." Raikou said

"Who the heck is she?" Sonic confuse

"That is my Boss, Boss! Wait a minute, calling both you two bosses sounds annoying. Anyway, Why have you returned!?" Sakata said

"Hehe, hehehe, hehehehehehehe! You can tell?"

"...That's not Raikou. She might look the same, but her existence is entirely twisted. Isn't that right, Boss of all demons? Suzugamori's Ushi Gozen!" Sakata shouted

"Hehe. Raikou and I are not so different," Ushi Gozen said

". If I remember correctly, Ushi Gozen is Minamoto-no-Raikou's brother... The story goes that ultimately Raikou eliminated him..." Romani said

"Yeah, that's the story. Ushi Gozen, here is something similar to Lord Raikou's older brother. But Gozen is the title for a woman. ...Lord Raikou has never talked about her origins. Even I had to do a little digging myself. Her power was feared so much that she was seen as a cursed child and thus sent to a temple. That child's father... He regretted letting go of her talents. It's predictable what would happen. He welcomed his imprisoned daughter back as his newborn son. I'll tell you the rest of the story later, Boss!" Sakata said

"Just a moment ago, you said...she had been sealed away."

"When she became the leader of the Minamoto family, Boss Raikou tried to cut away that deranged side of her. After a lot of trouble, it ended with her sealing Ushi Gozen deep inside herself." Sakata said

'Well, isn't that interesting. But anyway, you were the one that created such an island, huh?" Sonic commented

"Yes, talking creature. I, the one who acquired that cup, made it. I made it to build a kingdom entirely for Oni." Ushi Gozen said

"That doesn't sound peaceful at all. Why would you create a demonic kingdom like that?"

"Whatever it is. It must be negative. Whatever happens, we need to take this Person down and fast! She may be feared, but someone like me isn't afraid of anyone!" Sonic said

"This is the climax of the oni extermination! I'm not afraid of people like you! Even if Raikou grew horns and became an ox god, she'd never really run from anything! Minamoto-no-Raikou would cry, lose her nerve and throw a tantrum, but she would eventually get it together and make Kyoto her home! You're nothing but a loser cow, an oni that's eating dirt! Hurry up and bring back Raikou!" Sakata shouted

"I thought you would've understood by now, but it seems I was wrong. With that, I can get serious! The reason being that I can completely accept your feelings– and therefore love you...to death!"

Ushi suddenly lunges at the group, ready to attack it, until Sonic suddenly jumps in front of Ushi, forms a figure-eight shape underneath him, and begins to kick Ushi in the face many times.

"*Kicking Ushi In The Face Very fast* I hope you like 10 million kicks in the face! I can do this all day as well!" Sonic said

"Keep doing that, Boss! Come on, guys, let's finish the job!" Sakata said

Sakata and Ushiwakamaru both lunge toward Ushi, with Ushiwakamaru unleashing a series of powerful sword attacks around Ushi's body, leaving scratch marks around her body and bleeding as well. Fuuma appears behind Ushi and throws several Shurikins towards her, stabbing them all in the back and causing damage to her. After kicking Ushi in the face 10 million times, Sonic curls into a ball, and homing attacks Ushi in the front, pushing her back away from him. Ushi, shocked by the number of kicks Sonic performed on her, quickly regains focus, lunges toward Soni, and begins to show her swordsmanship skills against Sonic, trying to land a hit on Sonic. Still, using his speed, doSonic edges each of Ushi's attacks, and while doing so, Sonic runs behind Ushi, grabs her large purple ponytail, and covers her face with it, not allowing Ushi to see her surroundings. Ibaraki summons two giant Fist as they fly toward Ushi, throwing powerful punches at Ushi with force and pushing her back. Benkei and Shuten soon lunge toward Ushi as Shuten jumps and performs a kick downward's kick, and Benkei slashes Ushi several times in the body before finishing it off with a strong slash that creates a cut through her body and blood spewing. Ushi removes her hair off her face as Sonic runs around her in circles, producing a massive tornado that sweeps up Ushi and sends her flying towards a boulder and hitting it hard before falling.

"What's the matter? Couldn't keep up with the speed of a Hedgehog like me?" Sonic said

"Y-You such Rodent! How can someone like you can run that fast!?"

"An opening! You ready, Boss!"

"Let's do this!"

Sonic curls into a concussive ball and revs his speed while Sakata revs up his engine. The two then sped towards Ushi as both began drifting around, creating a blue flaming wall that forced Ushi to stand inside. As the two continue to circle, Ushi, Sakata, and Sonic jump into the air, ready for their final attack. Sakata unleashed his Noble Phantasm while Sonic performed his boost skill. Both attack Ushi together, sending her flying towards a giant boulder, hitting it very hard and falling to the ground, laying motionless.

"Did...we...win?" Ushiwakamaru asks

"..."

"Don't get too sad about it, Boss. After all, I've already done this once before. The only way to defeat her was to knock her out. But that's a story for another time." Sakata said

"Ohhh... Wh-Where... Where am I? What happens? My, if it isn't Kintoki! It's been a long time. How are you doing? ...Oh dear. It seems as if I've caused you some trouble... Kintoki...and everyone gathered here... Though I don't remember, it is clear what the situation is from the looks of things. I know this cannot be excused by just apologizing, but I beg of you, please forgive me." Raikou apologizing

"You don't need to apologize, ma'am! I know you didn't mean to cause harm to any of us. Lift that head up and spirit!" Sonic said

"*Looks At Sonic* My, you must be that Blue creature I've been following. You look so adorable; what's your name?" Raikou asks

"Names Sonic! Sonic The Hedgehog! And these guys behind me are my friends!" Sonic said

"Listen to what my Lord has to say. No need to feel down for something you didn't mean to do, Lord Raikou." Ushiwakamaru said

"Even if you were taken with madness, I have the deepest respect for your valor, Lord Raikou," Benkei said

"I-I agree... The elegant way you carry yourself, your formal way of sitting gives off a glowing aura..." Fuuma said

"Oh, everyone... You are so kind to one such as me... I can see that Kintoki has been blessed with good friends." Raikou said

"Especially Boss, here! He has the same energy of love as Lord Raikou does!" Sakata said

"So I heard. I have been watching your kind animal. The number of friends you made along the way was an adorable thing to witness. The smile on your face always brings me joy. So to honor your adventure coming here, I shall be your sword the next time we meet. Feel free to use me as one of your Servants. I shall obey your orders, no matter what they may be." Raikou said

"A Master like me would prefer us working together rather than commanding others. That's how it works here in this world." Sonic replied

"Oh my, a free soul? You are a kind creature. Well, I'm sure we will work together just fine. I'll give you all the motherly love you need when I see you again." Raikou said before vanishing

"What does mean by motherly love?" Sonic asks

"Just wait and see," Sakata said

"I enjoyed this adventure, Sonic. Please, summon me as early as you can. I want to know about you and your adventure. Thank you. It was an honor to be alongside you." Fuuma said before vanishing

"Foou..."

"Nice work, everyone. Oh, that's right! I think it best that I make this one final announcement. I promise you, Sonic, this is the last time you'll be in Japan for a while." Romani said
