Before we start i just wanna explain some things so you are not confused when reading this,

This is an original sonic story set in a different universe compared to the one were used to most of the games are still cannon in this universe but it is still a separate universe nonetheless, sonic was 14 when he started fighting Eggman in sonic 1 this story takes place 9 years after making Sonic 23 years old, in this story tails is female to make it really set apart from the main universe she was 11 when she met sonic making her 20 years old now and although sonic x is not cannon in this universe Cosmo is in this story this Cosmo is much more different than the one were used to Cosmo is a male and tails feel in love with him but unfortunately, he died of natural causes he's going to be a big point in the story as you read it that that's set we can begin.

Sonic Fan 27 Presents...

SONIC ULTIMATE

The Pursuit For The Jewels

We fade into a very peaceful and serene grassy plains. A bird lands on the ground it looks left and fly's away a couple of seconds later we hear running footsteps coming closer and closer until there's a loud ZOOM! A blue blur runs right past the screen and the grass and flowers are shaking we cut to red running shoes then tan arms with white gloves then we cut to the full picture SONIC THE HEDGEHOG he's looking a little older than usual but he's still the same free spirited hero we all know and love he spots a badnik a motobug he smiles rolls up into a ball and destroys it freeing the animal inside he runs across a bridge 3 badnik fish parainas jump up to hit sonic but he jumps up hold his foot out as he destroys all three of them in a row he lands down in a super hero landing he spots a buzz bomber it starts shooting him he rolls and ducks out of the way he jumps on a wall and jumps to the badniks destroying it there's a big explosion but sonic arrives out of the smoke holding the animal in his hand he jumps down lets the animal go the animal gives him a fist bump sonic gets up standing proud

SONIC

Ahhh whelp guess that's all of them

He hears some explosions through some bushes and jumping

SONIC

Heh!

Sonic jumps through the bushes and sees what going on its tails, tails is destroying some badniks too sonic smiles

SONIC

YO TAILS!

Tails notices him

TAILS

SONIC!

Tails seems very happy to see him Sonic notices tails struggling with some badniks

SONIC

Need some help?

Tails smiles

TAILS

Some help wouldn't be bad!

Sonic jumps out as tails catches him in the air and throws him through some badniks while in the air sonic puts his hands behind his back and lands in a tree net bed Tails notices and smiles while rolling her eyes

TAILS

You may be 23 but you still act like your 15

SONIC

And what are you like 20 now?

TAILS

Yup!

SONIC

Man were does the time go...

Sonic jumps out of the tree net bed and stretches

SONIC

Haven't seen you in awhile what you been up to?

TAILS

Well i was working on some inventions of mine at my work shop until i saw some badniks i decided to go after them cause well i have not seen any in a long time come to think about it i have not seen any sign of Eggman in months

SONIC

Same here the only signs i saw of him were his badniks

TAILS

Him not being around this long is getting me worried sonic i mean what if he's using all this time to plan something BIG.

SONIC

I think we should head to his base and find out what he's planning before his plan comes into fruition. Just like old times huh?

Sonic pulls her in and gives her a knuckle rub on the head

TAILS

Heh heh Yeah!

Sonic and tails run off to the distance and we fade out.

We cut into Eggman's base eggman is reading a very old book as he read's he's talking to him self almost as if he's trying to find something until he stops and we see a picture in the book of some strange jewels he looks closer at this pacific page

EGGMAN

The mega emeralds those who welds its power shall be granted what they want most including bringing someone back to life, hmmm interesting however the echidna tribe abused its power and now whoever uses it possibly could be granted consenques like death however sacrificing something for the jewels can lower the chances of punishment. Very !

Orbot his robot assistant hovers to him

ORBOT

Yes sir?

EGGMAN

Search for any available results of Mega Emeralds.

Orbot's robot eyes turn purple as is search

ORBOT

Results of Mega Emeralds are available

There is a pause that seems like forever

EGGMAN

Well don't just stand there tell me the results!

ORBOT

Source Spagonia Article By Professor Pickle the mega emeralds are very a mysterious set of jewels nothing like the chaos emeralds legend says that the first people to find the emeralds were the echidna tribe and they used is power to grant them what they wanted most however as days gone by they abused its power so the next day when they used the emeralds the emeralds granted one of them death shocked by the results the emeralds was buried and never found again but legend says Uka cult has found them and are abusing its power to this day but they are not given consequences because the emeralds will accept sacrifice and blood no one knows if the uka tribe is still alive today or if the emeralds still exist legend says that the uka cult are located on dead man's island it is said that whoever goes there never come back.

EGGMAN

Sacrifice huh maybe if find the jewels i will be granted what I want most and let someone else do the sacrificing.

Eggman laughs to himself quietly

ORBOT

But sir your not possibly going to go find those jewels are you? Its a fool's errand

Eggman smiles

EGGMAN

Exactly orbot an errand.

They hear some commotion

EGGMAN

What was that!?

ORBOT

Uhhhh sirrr!

Sonic and tails show up to his base

SONIC

Yo Eggman its been awhile hasn't it

EGGMAN

Ahh sonic my favorite nemesis, and I see you brought your 2 tailed friend along with you.

TAILS

We already know your up to no good so why don't you tell us what your planning!

EGGMAN

Heh heh that would ruin the surprise now would it tails.

SONIC

Or we could just cut your party early

EGGMAN

Listen i know your too are itching to destroy my plans but I'm afraid that its not ready yet but it will surely be your last.

Tails looks mad but you can tell that she's worried

EGGMAN

But in the meantime I have appetizers for both of you. you rats!

Eggman presses a button

EGGMAN

Activate security systems! Get them both out of here NOW!

The giant machine gun pops out of the roof

SONIC

Now this is what I've been waiting for!

The machine gun starts firing at sonic and tails as they both run as the machine gun chases them

TAILS

SONIC DON'T YOU THINK WE SHOULD RUN FOR EGGMAN?!

A loud speaker appears

EGGMAN

I'm afraid that you can't do that tails!

Eggman presses a button and walls start closing behind sonic and tails as the machine gun is still chasing them

SONIC

Dang! He wanted us to run away from the machine gun were gonna have to bail out of here!

TAILS

I completely agree!

Sonic and tails run out of there until all of the doors are closed and the machine gun stops firing they jump outside as the last door closes there both exhausted

SONIC

Huff, huff, are you ok?

TAILS

Yeah I'm fine maybe we can find another way to get back in there

As tails says that the entire base turns electrified

SONIC

Heh heh any other plans

Tails rolls her eyes

SONIC

Well did you figure out anything that he said back there

TAILS

I heard him say something about another type of emeralds being more powerful than the chaos emeralds and how they grant you what you want most including bringing someone back to lif- I can bring Cosm-

As tails says that there's some shock in her eye she can barely say the sentence

SONIC

Tails?

TAILS

What! Sorry uh its nothing its nothing.

Sonic looks at her strangely but shrugs it off

TAILS

Uhh i also heard that the people who presumably found the emeralds where the echidna tribe

SONIC

Maybe knuckles might know something about this. Lets head over to Angel island and find out.

TAILS

I'll get the tornado.

Sonic and tails walk to the distance we cut to a house the house is pretty rough looking we pan over to a mail box for the house that says Po box Nack/Weasel. We hear a truck driving over and the door closes someone gets out of it were still on the shot on the mail box but we hear the truck a guy gets out and puts something in the mailbox and drives off we hear a female voice say

Girl

Honey can you get that please?

The door from the house opens we don't see who it is but he grabs the mail from the mail box as he reads it he examines it and he walks quickly with it

Girl

What was it?

We hear a deep Australian voice answer

?

Its just some old stuff ill take a look at it

Girl

Nack i hope its not one of your old things your old things have caused you trouble before

Nack

Don't worry its fine its nothing really.

He goes into a room and shuts the door he reads a piece of paper that says "I Need Your Help Call this number for details" fang grabs a phone and calls it but before he can the phone rings

Nack

Don't worry Maddie ill get it

He answers the phone

Nack

Hello?

The caller speaks its Eggman

EGGMAN

Listen i've worked with you before and i understand that your a changed man but i need you to help me again I-

NACK

What you want me to go after that kid again like all those years ago mate? well its not happening i got a family thats more important.

EGGMAN

No im going to need you for something else something more in your alley i need you to find me something its big job but i'm going to pay you handsomely more than what any bounty hunter like you could possibly imagine.

Fang looks over to his wife maddie and his kids he looks around his struggling family he sighs

FANG

What do you want Robotnik

EGGMAN

I need you to go to dead mans island and retrieve mystical gems called the mega emeralds

FANG

Dead mans island? The hell? that place don't even exist anymore some cult of freaks live there.

EGGMAN

Well i have the location there i need you to go to it ill book you a private flight with my assistants to go there if you run into trouble ill give you all the man power and weapons you need and yes you will most likely run into trouble Cult members... but all you need to do is bring me the emeralds and that's that. Nothing more

Fang puts his hand on the wall looks at his old hat and gear and his family he looks over on a table filled with bill papers

FANG

Deal.

EGGMAN

Excellent! Prepare to bring your things and my assistant will be waiting for you with your flight soon and like usual if you fail me you wont get your money, we will meet again Fang The Sniper.

Fang grabs his hat and pistol and all his old gear as hes doing that he looks behind him and sees maddie with her arm crossed clearly disappointed

FANG

Look im sorry i promise after this last one ill give it up forever were being offered a big cash prize once all i have to do is get those jewels to him then we can move to a bigger house and live better.

MADDIE

Im not going to burry you nack you told me that you would never do this again!

FANG

Honey please cant you see what state were in and im not gonna die cause i have a family to take care of.

MADDIE

Be careful.

Fang goes up to her and gives her a hug

FANG

i will i promise you i and the kids will live better when i get the money i love you

fang gives her a kiss as he starts packing up some of his old gear

We cut back to sonic and tails they are flying in the tornado to angel island

SONIC

Brings back old times huh tails?

Tails responds with not much energy than he was earlier.

TAILS

Yeah yeah...old times…

Sonic looks at tails confused again

SONIC

Are you okay?

TAILS

Yeah yeah im fine

Sonic leans over to tails

SONIC

Listen if you wanna talk, im here.

TAILS

Dont worry im fine…

Sonic looks at tails again before he can say something

TAILS

Were Here!

Sonic smiles he can feel the nostalgia

SONIC

Ahhh..good ol angel island always thought this place was beautiful lets go find knuckles.

We cut to knuckles sleeping with his hands behind his back on the master emerald

Sonic says to tails

SONIC

So much for being an emerald guardian huh

Tails giggles

Sonic grabs a bucket of water and splashes it on knuckles SPLASH! Knuckles wakes up angry and confused

KNUCKLES

THATS MY EMERALD BAT GIRL!

Knuckles looks around and sees sonic and tails

KNUCKLES

Oh its you guys! I have not seen you guys in ages!

Knuckles is very happy to see them

SONIC

Same as ever huh knuckles

As sonic says that tails picks up knuckles

KNUCKLES

Thanks. So what are you guys doing on angel island?

TAILS

We need your help knuckles eggman's planning to use these new set of emeralds called the mega emeralds we snuck into his base and heard that the echidna tribe were the first to find them and well your pretty familiar with emeralds so can you tell us anything you know?

KNUCKLES

Mega Emeralds huh? well i remember my parents telling me about them i heard that they were the most dark relenting emeralds much more than the chaos and master emerald. legend says that whoever uses them will grant them what they want most including bringing someone back to life

Tails stumbles

KNUCKLES

You okay there tails?

SONIC

she's been acting strange recent-

Before sonic can finish that sentence of tails says

TAILS

Im fine im fine. Just continue what you were saying please

KNUCKLES

Well that might sound great and all but my echidna ancestors abused there power so if you use them there's a 70% chance you could die doing it its not a safe bet. Discovering this they buried the emeralds on an island thats now called Dead mans island years later the uka cult a that cult believe in evil and death found the emeralds and found out that with sacrifice lowers the chances getting killed by the emeralds instead will give you what you want most.

Sonic seems very disturbed

SONIC

Jesus you weren't lying when you said these emeralds are dark i cant imagine what Eggman would do if he found those..

TAILS

I think i could fly us there i have a gps that can take to islands

KNUCKLES

Well i'd love to go with you guys but i got an emerald to protect and as you can tell earlier i gotta improve my game.

Sonic laughs

SONIC

Don't worry knuckles we understand see ya around.

As sonic and tails go to the tornado knuckles shouts

KNUCKLES

Be careful guys the uka cult is relentless!

SONIC

Don't worry knux well live!

As sonic and tails fly away in the tornado knuckles quietly says

KNUCKLES

I hope so…

We cut to tail's workshop its night time sonic and tails open the door

TAILS

I'll get the device and we will head there tomorrow.

Sonic yawns

TAILS

You wanna stay here tonight?

SONIC

Yeahhh my place is far from here.. Sure thanks.

TAILS

No problem.

Sonic goes into a room in tail's workshop to sleep tails goes to her bed and dreams

We cut to a pitch black place with tails standing in the middle of it she hears a voice

?

Tails.

Its cosmo

TAILS

I want to bring you back cosmo but the emeralds have consequences

COSMO

But isn't bringing me back what you want most?

TAILS

I want to bring you back but.. But…what if i die i can't abandon my friends.

Tails stutters

COSMO

What do you want most tails?

TAILS

I...I... I.. Want…

Tails starts crying

TAILS

I want you back But...but..

As she says that he disappears and we hear cosmos voice say tails! Tails! Tails! Until the voices changes Tails wake up! she opens her eyes and sees sonic

TAILS

Oh sorry sonic i had a... dream.

SONIC

no problem thought you'd never wake up i was screaming! you were sleeping like those princess who never wake up

Tails just looks at him

SONIC

What?

TAILS

What do you have to do to wake up a princess whose in a deep sleep?

There's an Awkward pause

SONIC

Oh... Well that sounded wrong oh c'mon you know how hard it is for me to come up with stuff! anyway i got you some breakfast and dont judge me cause i cant cook for squat

Tails laughs

Sonic gives her some coffee and a bunch of mint candy tails looks at him

SONIC

What? I ran to the store. I knew you like mint candy, aaannddd you know i'm bad at cooking, you don't want me to burn down your workshop again do you?

Tails laughs even more

TAILS

Oh your something else sonic

She eats one of the mints and sips some coffee

SONIC

Well did you find your gps thingy

TAILS

Yeah i made sure to make it track dead mans island wherever it is

SONIC

Hope we don't run into those uka savages

TAILS

We probably will because from what we heard those guys were the last known ones to have the jewels

SONIC

Well like it or not we gotta get them or else eggman's gonna have those emeralds and be worse than those guys

TAILS

Exactly. Soooo do you want me to make you breakfast?

SONIC

Honestly Tails after what i said earlier i think lost my appetite... but yeah i could go for some breakfast!

Sonic and tails laugh together and we fade out

We fade in to an airport Orbot is there holding a sign that says "Service For Nack The Weasel" orbot is asking random people if they have seen him

ORBOT

Excuse me do you know this man

Some old guy answers

OLD GUY

Huhh!?

He puts his glasses on looks at the sign and then looks at orbot he looks terrified

OLD GUY

HOLY MACARONI A TALKING ROBOT RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

He runs off Orbot sighs

ORBOT

Why do I even try…

Fang walks in wearing a black suit and holding a suitcase with his signature hat he nods at Orbot and they go to a plane

ORBOT

Let me just say sir that im warning you to be careful the uka cult are known for Killing innocents for anyone whos unfortunate enough to go to dead mans island.

FANG

Well robot dude if there's funny business i got bullet for each one of them

ORBOT

Just be careful sir.

Orbot goes into the cockpit in the plane to fly it, nack pulls out a picture of his family he takes a good look and whispers

FANG

Don't worry once im home our lives are gonna change.

He puts the photo on a table he puts his boots up tilts his hat down and sleeps through the flight. we cut to sonic and tails in the tornado flying there

TAILS

So what's the plan?

SONIC

We get in there use your device to find the jewels grab the jewels and get out

TAILS

And what about the uka cult?

SONIC

Well we get them out of the picture if we have to.

TAILS

Alright then.

Sonic sits down on the plane

SONIC

I've been wanting to ask you tails

Tails looks at him

SONIC

Ever since we found out about these jewels you have been acting strange lately. Is there something bothering you?

TAILS

I..i…i don't know sonic just… its nothing.

Tails does not tell sonic about cosmo cause shes still conflicted on using the jewels or not to bring him back

SONIC

Well i hope you get what ever's bothering you outta there.

TAILS

I..i..

Tails does not answer

SONIC

Well anyway "Gasp"

Sonic looks out and seems shaken

TAILS

What is it?

SONIC

I might not be the best at flying that plane but does that cloud look like good news to you?

There's a big dark cloud in the distance

TAILS

Oh boy…

We cut to fang sleeping orbot comes up to him

ORBOT

Wake up sir wake up!

Fang wakes up annoyed

FANG

Ughh what do you want mate?

There's a big Lighting strike and the plane rumbles

ORBOT

You gotta get outta here sir! Robotnik did not teach me how to fly in conditions like this!

FANG

Then why did he send an idiot to fly the damn plane! Your not even flying the plane right now you! Aghhh get me my things!

ORBOT

Yes Sir!

Orbot hands him his bag and heads for the cockpit we hear orbot scream

FANG

Why the hell are you screamin-

The plane is going really fast and is about to crash! Fang and orbot hold on to each other and scream and then there's a loud BOOM!

We cut to sonic lying on the ground in some sand at a beach side knocked until he wakes up

SONIC

Ughhh my head

Sonic stumbles he hears a CRACK

SONIC

Aghh! Thats gonna hurt in the morning...

he's looking very rough one of his gloves is tore to shreds he looks at his hand which has a huge gash in the middle of it

SONIC

ehhh Thats not good...

he sees tails floating in the water on her face sonic runs up and grabs her out of the water he starts slapping her fast gently tails does not respond

SONIC

Oh no.

SONIC

Hey tails wake up c'mon kid wake up!

Sonic notices shes is not breathing

SONIC

No! No no no no!

Sonic presses on her stomach

SONIC

Come on don't give up now! I thought you could swim!?

Sonic looks around left and right he's running out of options he repeatedly hits his own head with his hand

SONIC

I was kidding about the princess thing!

he looks at tails and sighs he takes a deep breath

SONIC

This is gonna hurt me a lot more than its gonna hurt you...

Sonic tries punching her in the stomach very hard it does not work sonic sighs Sonic squints his eyes He leans in but Before sonic can do what you think he's gonna do tails wakes up coughing up water

SONIC

Oh my god! Your alive!

Sonic laughs with joy he is super happy, Tails notices sonic's look and looks at him weirdly

TAILS

Sonic were you about to?

SONIC

Oh come on tails what choice did i have? and I thought you could swim!?

TAILS

.Are we at the island?

SONIC

I think, but maybe we should look around for supplies and other stuff that i see on tv.

TAILS

Oh so just cause you saw it on tv means that your the survival expert

Sonic looks at tails and responds with a weird smile

SONIC

Yeess?

Before tails can respond they notice a campfire in the distance. Sonic and tails go to it and find fang at the campfire

SONIC

Fang!?

FANG

Oh god can things get any bloody worse!?

SONIC

Woah woah as long as you don't try to kill us were cool right?

FANG

I guess.

TAILS

What are you doing here? Do you even know what this place is?

FANG

I crashed here the plane it in landed in ocean i saw the island and swam to it no one else survived

SONIC

Jesus... Where were you headed anyway?

Fang comes up with a lie but a lie that's very believable

FANG

Im a changed man i was on my way to visit my family but uhhh well you know.

Sonic looks at him feeling bad

SONIC

Geez i'm sorry man that must be hard.

FANG

Yeah well... so what's your guy's story?

Sonic and tails sit by the campfire as sonic tells his story he wraps bandages around his hand

SONIC

Well me and tails here were headed for this island so we can find these jewels called the mega emeralds robotnik was after. i heard some cult of death worshipers has them, when flying here a big storm hit we crashed.

Sonic looks at tails

She nearly drowned. I almost had to do stuff... ugh i thought you could swim tails!?

Tails laughs

TAILS

I was knocked out from the plane crash and landed in water i dont think a lot of people can swim unconsciously sonic.

fang realizes that he has a challenge but knows he can use sonic and tails to get the jewels

SONIC

Well you might wanna be careful fang i heard this uka cult is relentless i'd find away to get outta here if im you.

Fang comes up with another lie

FANG

No im probably gonna have to stick around with you guys dont wanna run into those freaks alone.

TAILS

Suit yourself but its gonna be dangerous

FANG

I can handle it.

SONIC

We should probably head there so we can get out im not leaving without those emeralds

FANG

Aye…

We fade out and fade into sonic fang tails climbing up some stairs

SONIC

Ya know for a cult thats known for killing innocents and sacrificing for some jewels that place up there does not fit the image whatsoever.

We cut to a beautiful looking palace place

TAILS

Maybe these guys don't bite too much?

FANG

Heh we'll see.

We cut to sonic tails and fang at the palace they knock on the big door to the palace a nicely dressed man answers the door

MAN

Ahh hello visitors welcome to aku palace we welcome visitors to come to stay my name is Athro

SONIC

Yes umm we crashed here and-

ATHRO

And i can see the condition your all in

Sonic and the gang all look beat up and rough

ATHRO

We can offer you a place to stay and a boat to take you back to were you came from so please make yourself at home!

Sonic tails fang walk into the building and see how beautiful it is sonic whispers

SONIC

Maybe we came to the wrong island?

TAILS

Well if thats the case these guys can take us there since they said they offered us a cruise.

FANG

I don't know mates just keep an eye out ya hear?

Sonic and tails nod

ATHRO

2 girls nod and head to another room

ATHRO

Our assistants are arranging rooms and preparing a feast it may take some time so make yourselves at home.

A girl goes up to sonic tails fang

GIRL

They all follow her into their separate rooms. They are all very nice looking.

When the girl leaves sonic tells all of them to come in his room to plan

SONIC

TAILS

FANG

Exactly Tails, seem

SONIC

Com'on Fang there offering us separate rooms to stay a feast and a cruise to get out plus how can a cult of death worshipers have access to all this food and luxury on an island the literally named dead man's island we don't even know if were on the same island we both crash landed here

We cut to sonic in his bed sleeping and hes well dreaming…

SONIC

"Snore" ahhh chili dogs "Snore" why can't i find my soap shoes "Snore" Sonic Rush has the best soundtrack in the series "Snore" Sonic 4 episode 2 was a pretty good game "Snore"

Sonic hears something while sleeping we see a shadow run past the camera sonic wakes up he stubbles out of bed tired he says

SONIC

Huh guys is that you?

A dark shadow comes up behind him with a rope and strangles sonic!

Sonic does his best to fight it desperate he finds a lamp post and smacks the guy with it he stuns him the guy gets up and grabs a knife running for sonic sonic goes by the window the guy throws the knife and grabs a nearby sword he laughs and charges at sonic. Sonic jumps out of the way and the guy CRASHES through the window he falls sonic straitens himself out

SONIC

The hell was that! I gotta get the others were getting out of here!

Sonic runs to tails room

SONIC

Get up tails were getting out of here!

TAILS

Why whats going on?

SONIC

Some guy tried to kill me, i think it was one of the cult guys they tricked us! get fang these guys have to have the emeralds some were

Tails grumbles tired

TAILS

And just when I thought we could trust these guys…

Tails runs to fangs room meanwhile sonic is looking in his room for clues he notices a satchel and grabs it.

SONIC

Gotta have something to put the jewels in.

Sonic looks at the walls and notices a part of the wall is more different looking than the others he goes up to the wall and tries to push it it does not work so he leans on the wall for a second the wall moves left and sonic falls on the floor theres a secret room

SONIC

Yup i knew that would work.

Sonic runs to tails and fang

SONIC

Guys might wanna check this out.

They all go to the secret room and sees 3 buttons sonic goes to press one of them but tails grabs sonic's hand

TAILS

We cant touch one of those buttons yet theres 3 of them we have to figure out what order we press them and if we press the wrong one well… i don't wanna find out tails points to a skeleton in the corner

SONIC

Yup listen to tails. Well theres gotta be some way to open it look around for clues

TAILS

Wait..

Tails points up above the buttons there are 3 carvings above the buttons

TAILS

Look around your rooms for something that looks like these carvings.

Sonic looks around until he notices something he looks up

TAILS

What is it sonic?

Tails looks up and sees a carving of a skull with the number 1 beside it

TAILS

Your right sonic go press the button with the skull on it fang go to your room and look for more ceiling carvings

Fang from the other room shouts

FANG

Got it its a picture of some waves

Sonic goes to press the button with the wave carving

Tails goes to her room and before she can say what the carving is she's shocked to see what it says, it reads "What do you want most?"

SONIC

What one is it tails theres 3 more carving one more button to press.

Tails stutters and says

TAILS

W..wha..what you want m..most

Sonic confused says

SONIC

I think you got the wrong one there is no one with "what you want most"

Tails shakes her head and sees a carving of 3 emeralds

TAILS

Uhh sorry sorry The one with 3 emeralds!

Sonic presses it and another door in the secret room opens

SONIC

Alright guys! There's another door come on!

Sonic tails fang head into the secret door and find a massive cave sonic tails and fang all look surprised because they see… THE MEGA EMERALDS there sitting in a rock shrine with them on display all 3 of them head to it sonic pulls out his satchel Until they hear a loud CLINK and the floor from beneath them drops! they all fall into a cage and they see all of the people from the palace but in black and red robes wearing a hood their leader comes out to meet them and takes off his hood ITS ATHRO!

FANG

Dammit! I knew we couldn't trust these guys!

SONIC

What do you want Athro!

ATHRO

Athro? My name is not athro i was athro until you fools feel for our trap my name is Ino the leader of the uka

TAILS

What are you going to do with us?

Ino leans down

INO

My friends you all will make precious sacrifices for the mega emeralds so make yourself at home while you can!

TAILS

Whelp there's the answer on what island were on

Ino laughs like a maniac as the cult members take the gang to a room with 3 rock tables with 3 cloaked members by the tables sonic tails and fang are strapped to the tables all the members start to do a huh! Huh! Chant as Ino speaks some forsaken language

As he's saying this the cloaked members by the table hold up sharp daggers

SONIC

No way i'm not dying like this.

Sonic grabs a nearby rock and throws it at the cloaked member he falls to the ground and drops his dagger sonic grabs it and cuts himself free

INO

STOP HIM!

All of the of the members charge for sonic sonic runs around all of them until they cant see him

In a split second sonic frees tails and fang sonic grabs the jewels and puts them in his satchel

SONIC

C'MON GUYS LETS GET OUT OF HERE!

Sonic tails fang all run out of the place as all of the cloaked members chase them sonic tails fang all run across a giant bridge until

SONIC

Wait guys stop!

Fang and tails stop across the bridge

SONIC

You thinking what im thinking?

BOTH

No?

SONIC

Stay here

All of the Uka cult are running across the bridge until they see sonic stop they all stop too

INO

What are you giving up!?

All of the cult laugh on the bridge

INO

Sonic looks at him and smirks he leans on a tree looking at his fingers

SONIC

Its all long way down isn't it fatty?

INO

What!? im not fat!

SONIC

No no im talking about all of your cult and you still on the bridge

Ino looks behind him and sees the ropes snapping there's too many people on the bridge

INO

EVERYONE GET OFF GET OFF!

Before they can get off the rope snaps

INO

CURSE YOU SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!

The bridge breaks and All of the cult fall

FANG

Damn that was a little brutal even for my standards kid

SONIC

How else are we gonna fight all of those guys

Tails and fang look at him

SONIC

Lets just go home…

We cut to sonic tails fang outside on the beach fang is ready to make his move hes leaning for sonic's satchel but before fang can grab it tails grabs it sonic looks confused

SONIC

Tails? what are you doing?

TAILS

Im going to use the emeralds to bring back cosmo!

SONIC

What NO! I cant let you do that didn't you hear what knuckles said? Those things can kill you!

TAILS

There's a 70% chance of me dying sonic I'm gonna take the 30% i cant live without cosmo i made my choice

SONIC

And i can't live without you! You're my best friend! I cant lose you!

Before tails can respond fang takes the satchel from tails

FANG

I cant let you do that either mate eggman wants these shinnies and hes offering a big cash prize to whoever brings it to him i have a struggling family they need that money

Sonic looks at fang confused

SONIC

You..you knew this from the beginning didn't you? you used us to get those!

Fang smiles

FANG

Outlaw mate, all of you chose what your gonna do now cause its over one of us can only get the shinnies and the rest are gonna have to face what they cant lose like your 2 tailed friend dieing or a dead husband lost forever or my family continuing to live in pointless misery it's either me or all of you.

Fang pulls out a pistol and aims

FANG

And well the way i see it figured it might as well be all of you.

They all switch to a fighting pose sonic looks at fang.

SONIC

I cant let you get those to eggman…

Sonic looks to tails

SONIC

And i cant let you use those

Tails looks at sonic angry

FANG

Make your move mates cause its all over the only thing that matters to me is my family. So whos gonna take the first shot?

Tails charges for fang but sonic pushes tails out of the way before fang shoots him tails punches sonic out out of the way tails and runs for fang sonic runs to fang and kicks him in the face and grabs the satchel tails punches sonic in the head and sonic falls to the ground she grabs the bag sonic and fang run for her we cut to orbot looking very much alive looking pretty rough too

ORBOT

Uhhh were am i

His eyes turn purple

ORBOT

SCANNING AREA

Orbot gulps and says

ORBOT

DEAD MANS ISLAND!?

He hears yelling he looks behind him and sees all of the uka cult chasing him orbot screams and runs away

Sonic has the satchel and is fighting tails but more tail's fighting sonic and sonic is holding back

SONIC

Listen to me if you use the jewels you might die i cant let you take that risk!

TAILS

Its a risk i'm willing to take. I'd take any risk to bring back cosmo! Why cant you understand sonic!?

SONIC

Why cant you understand!?

She punches sonic in the face and grabs the satchel he makes a run for it but fang trips her grabbing the satchel sonic gets up and is shoke!

SONIC

Uhhh guys! Were gonna have to do this quick!

Sonic points tails and fang looks and see all of the cult running right towards them in the distance! Tails and fang fight as fang drops the satchel tails and fang don't notice, this buys sonic enough time to grab the satchel they still don't notice him sonic goes to tail's tornado he spots a bag he ditches the satchel and takes the emeralds out and puts them in the bag he puts rocks in the satchel sonic puts the satchel in the tornado and then sonic is knocked out by tails before tails can notice what sonic did he runs to fight some cult member getting closer and closer fang goes up to the tornado he grabs the jewels out of the bag sonic put them in his jacket fang grabs the satchel still even sonic wakes up and notices tails fighting the cult sonic runs up to tails and grabs her by the arm

SONIC

WE GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE TAILS THERES TO MANY OF THEM!

Tails notices fang running away with the satchel in the far distance tails knows she cant catch up to him and she looks at the cult running towards them she's super pissed tails grabs a sharp rock and GASHES sonic across the face sonic grunts with pain tails grabs sonic and pins him on the tornado tails tries to stab sonic with the sharp rock but sonic kicks it out of her hand tails is trying to kill sonic! She's losing herself! she looks at sonic and grabs him by the throat strangling him! tails pins him on the floor, still strangling him. tails fur starts turning darker and her pupils start to disappear its a terrifying sight

TAILS

HE GOT AWAY CAUSE OF YOU YOU MADE ME LOSE MY ONE CHANCE OF GETTING COSMO BACK SONIC! HE'S GONE FOREVER BECAUSE OF YOU!

Tails pushes him to the ground more sonic is struggling its a side to tails we have never seen.

TAILS

You think i wont!? I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!

Tails chokes him even more sonic is gasping for air! He's slowly losing his life sonic starts bleeding from his mouth from how much she's choking him his blood drenches her gloves before tails can kill him sonic lets out a sentence

SONIC

Do..do you think GASP this is what he would have wanted you killing someone to bring him back!? This isn't you!

Tails looks shook she immediately stops strangling sonic, her dark fur starts to turn back into its yellowish orange glory her pupils appear again sonic gasps for air coughing up blood his blood gets all over tails gloves Tails looks at her gloves with sonic's blood on them devastated

TAILS

What have i done… i'm a monster….

Sonic still with blood all over his mouth gets up and weakly says

SONIC

Listen tails i understand what your trying to do any one would understand what your trying to do but i cant let you take that risk i know thats sad but you have to accept the bad things and move on or else you will lose yourself.

Tails gets on her knees and cries

TAILS

That's all i am sonic, a monster

SONIC

If there were no consequences to using those emeralds id let you bring him back gladly but there are and if i lost you i don't know what i'd do i'd never forgive myself your my best friend tails. You cant let something like this control you, you have to fight it! And move on.

Tails looks up to sonic

SONIC

Please.

Sonic holds up his hand to tails

Tails has a flashback we cut to tails fixing the tornado sonic comes up to her but sonic looks very young

SONIC

Hey kid any reason why your messing with my plane?

TAILS

SONIC

Hurt you? Im not gonna hurt you...

TAILS

SONIC

Of course not!

TAILS

Sonic looks at tails feeling bad he leans down

SONIC

TAILS

You promise not to tell?

SONIC

Huh?

TAILS

Its Miles…

SONIC

Do you not like your name or something?

Tails does not respond

SONIC

I saw you around my plane I'm just and I'm wondering what you're doing around it. Not a lot of people wander around a plane, I'm not mad im just you know curious.

TAILS

Im..im sorry mister i just like stuff like planes and making them better improving them making them faster...

SONIC

Sonic looks impressed

SONIC

TAILS

Sonic nods

Sonic notices her 2 tails

SONIC

Well kid i've seen ya around following me and well i notice that you can run pretty fast! You can keep up kid! And i saw you fly with your 2 tails! Do you have anywhere to live, kid?

TAILS

No.. ive never known about any of my parents all i know is that they were gone a long time ago

Sonic looks at tails feeling bad

SONIC

Listen you wanna run with me for a while, your cool company! Maybe i can help you find someone to live with.

Sonic extends a hand to her

SONIC

Tails.

Tails smiles and takes his hand we fade to tails in a pitch black place like from her dream

Tails she is in the middle until a dark evil voice speaks its a dark reflection of tails with no pupils

DARK TAILS

You fool you should have killed him and we could of had cosmo back

TAILS

I WILL NEVER TO KILL MY BEST FRIEND TO GET HIM BACK! THAT'S NOT WHAT HE WOULD HAVE WANTED! THAT'S NOT WHO I AM! THAT'S YOU!

DARK TAILS

cosmo is the only thing that matters to us, sonic is our only obstacle eliminate him and we get him back

TAILS

Sonic is trying to help us realize that this is wrong!

DARK TAILS

He holds you back.

TAILS

He's my friend and i know i can't rely on him forever. The only thing that's holding me back IS YOU!

Evil tails screams and explodes Tails goes down on her knees and bows her head

TAILS

Im sorry cosmo.

Tails starts to cry on her kness until a soft male voice speaks to him

COSMO

Thank you Tails

Tails looks at cosmo confused

TAILS

What.. w.. What do you mean?

COSMO

Thank you for staying strong and moving on that's what i've always wanted for you im so proud of you i'll always be with you tails.

he starts to disappear

COSMO

Always.

We cut back to tails she notices sonic arm still extended to her she takes it and hugs sonic

TAILS

Im.. im so sorry sonic...

Tails hugs sonic very tightly sonic is very surprised and he awkwardly says

SONIC

This is a little awkward don't you think

Tails wipes her tears and smiles

TAILS

So me hugging you after you helping me realize what i was doing was wrong, is awkward?

SONIC

Well im not saying that but you were literally trying to kill me 2 seconds ago

Tails smiles

TAILS

You know what else is awkward sonic?

Tails leans close to sonic, sonic is looking nervous as sonic says

SONIC

Why are you looking at me like that?

She smiles and gets closer

SONIC

Wait What are you- !

She gives sonic a kiss, and smiles

TAILS

How's that for awkward?

SONIC

That did not just happen...You did not just do that...

TAILS

Well then i guess you're just blind.

She turns away and quietly says

TAILS

Thank you sonic….

She notices sonic still shook and ask

TAILS

Oh come on Sonic it was just a little kiss. a kiss among friends right? nothing serious.

SONIC

Right...

tails clears her throat

TAILS

"Ahem" So what do you say we ditch these losers?

Sonic notices the cult is coming closer and closer to sonic and tails

SONIC

Yep lets get outta here

Sonic and tails hop in the tornado and fly off

We cut to fang running through the forest as the cult chases him fang stops

FANG

Screw this.

He throws the satchel with the rocks on the ground as the cult members laugh but they don't know fang still has the emeralds he notices orbot

FANG

Hey robot dude follow me were getting out of here

ORBOT

Yes sir!

Fang and orbot run into the distance

We fade to eggman reading a book the same book with the jewels orbot appears looking very rough

EGGMAN

What happened to you?

ORBOT

Its a long story...you have a guest sir

Fang walks in also looking very rough

EGGMAN

Ahhh fang did you bring me the emeralds

Fang pulls out a bag and plops it on eggman's desk

FANG

I got the shinnies.

Eggman pulls out the emeralds and looks very impressed

EGGMAN

Very good.

EGGMAN

Orbot!

ORBOT

Yes sir?

EGGMAN

Give Fang his Prize!

ORBOT

Course follow me this way sir.

Fang and orbot go to another room there's a chest filled with gold fang smiles

FANG

Heh guess all that hell was worth it. Pleasure doing business with you robotnik.

Fang tips his hat and leaves with the chest. We go back to eggman who is smiling very evilly

EGGMAN

i have it orbot i have the MEGA EMERALDS! Now i can harness its power! Soon sonic and his friends wont know what hit them! The final plan is in fruition

Eggman laughs like a super villain our heroes don't know it but this is only the beginning

we cut to

Fang pulling his chest full of gold when he head to his house he knock on the door with a smile on his maddie answers and he hugs fang

FANG

Its all over honey

She sees the chest and kisses fang

FANG

Were gonna live better now.

As we zoom out we hear fangs son running for his dad fang is very happy we notice a side to fang we never seen before a family man and overall things are going very nice for him back at the tornado sonic and tails are flying back home tails has her jacket back on from the beginning and sonic's scars and blood are less visible they both look better than what they were on the island

TAILS

Im.. im sorry sonic i.. I nearly killed you it was selfish of me i was so blind with rage its like there was something controlling me...

SONIC

Tails like i said before no one would blame you for what you were doing. but it's over now we can all breathe a little easier...

TAILS

Thank you… thank you so much sonic.

SONIC

No problem. like i said if you never need to talk I'm here.

There's a pause

TAILS

Soooo.. Now what?

SONIC

We settle things like eggman and you..kissing me..and this mess in general but i think we can rest easy.

TAILS

Fang still got the jewels though

SONIC

Well then i guess we got another adventure ahead of us huh?

Tails smiles but sonic looks down and sighs because hes getting tired of doing the same thing hes getting tired of all the adventures but we don't know that The tornado lands and They walk through the plains like at the beginning of the story they notice more badniks

TAILS

Is it time to go to work?

SONIC

It's time to go to work!

Sonic and tails fist bump the Sonic grabs her by the hand And BOOST! Through tons of badniks!

THE END
