Flowing Pedals Of Light- Above Who We See

Chapter 6: Returned Blossoms of Affection
School day with another Geosynthesis test, that thought flashed in Sonic's mind as he waited for the next class. "Another test, Sonic?" Cosmo asked as they walked down the hallway to his next class. "Yeah, for a SS-Rank apparently. I studied for it, but I'm still a little nervous." Sonic told her. "Don't worry too much about it. You can do it, Sonic. I'll be rooting for you." she said. "Awesome, then here I go!" he said as he walked into the schoolyard. A man in the center waved as he moved close, with Mr. Rock sitting right in the center. "Welcome, S-ranked Sonic the Hedgehog. The time has come for you to pass the SS-rank test." the man named Slivern said. "Fine, let's do this then." Sonic said. "As per usual, the one whose Geolink severs loses the battle and their Geosnythesis Beast. Good luck!" Mr. Rock said, surprising Sonic. Sonic took on his Griffon form and Slivern whipped out his beast, a large black serpent-like creature named Jourmangandre. It's head was a triangle-shape with a glowing oval in the center, a slim body with hook-like arms and four curved legs with smaller wings on the heels and elbows. At the end of the long tail is a curved blade, and it's tiny eyes glimmer blood red. The beast glowed and entered Slivern's body, covering his arms with black gauntlets with green armblades, his legs with black greaves with small green wings, his body covered with a V-shaped chest piece, a long tail from behind and a crescent black sword with glowing blade and finally a helm in the likeness of the beast's head covered his head before it was done.
"Let's get this on! GRIFFON CLAW!!" yelled Sonic as a giant energy claw stretched out from his hand and pressed on Slivern, pushing his legs into the dirt. "Trapping me like this will do naught, Sonic! CRESCENT WAVE!!" Slivern yelled after synthesizing another sword from a piece of steel and swinging both swords, unleashing two large black sonic booms. Sonic blocked one of them but took the other one, slamming down into the ground. "Now, for your Geolink!" Slivern yelled before charging at Sonic, who rose up at the last minute and hacked down one Slivern's two geolinks. "Heh, there's more to my style than you think!" Sonic said before spinning in the air and creating a guilded vortex that sucked Slivern in. Slivern was determined not to go down yet and swung wildly at Sonic, who blocked with his claws and grabbed one of the blades. "The sword is a beautiful weapon that needs to be wielded with as much elegance as the user. In short, your method sucks major ass, dude!" he said as he synthesized the blades into stone slabs. "Oh no, my weapons!" Slivern yelled as Sonic kicked him into the ground while synthesizing one of the blade hilts into a lance. "You're toast, Slivern!" Sonic yelled, blazing at him and crossing his path, cutting the Geolink and sending Slivern into the ground. "It's over! Sonic emerges victorious once again!" announced Mr. Rock as Sonic floated back down, recieving all the applause. Jourmangandre floated from Slivern and surrounded Sonic in a black and green haze before entering his body and with a female voice said, "Master, you are clearly the stronger...I lend my services to you eternally." Sonic took on the Jourmangandre form, the only difference in his state was an extra set of quills.
"Sonic the Hedgehog, I hereby present you with the SS-rank emblem. Welcome to the HRG, or High Rank Geosynthesizers group. Please come with us to the capital city of Turg." Slivern said as another HRG appeared, covered in a steel cape. "He can drive with me. Come, hedgehog." said the HRG named Steele as Sonic hopped in the car. They drove off and while in the car Sonic decided to strike some conversation. "Umm, I could've ran all the way there if you told me where to go." he said to Steele, who simply stared out the window. "You are technically one of us now, Sonic. As such, you are entitled to my hospitality." he said. "Oh, well thank you all the same." "Of course. We are almost there." he said as a large building came in sight. A cathedral-like building with six large towers served as the HRG Headquarters of Turg, City of Minerals. This city was large, yet the population was very, very small. Only Geosynthesizers were allowed here, sending any others out. In a large office in the center building, Steele led Sonic to it. "So, this is the child with extraordinary Geosynthesis powers." said the man in the chair. "Yes, General Flaere. He bares the mark of those Geosynthesizers..." said Steele, who sat Sonic down. "Welcome, SS-ranked HRG Sonic the Hedgehog. You may call me Flaere, General Flaere." he extended his hand to Sonic, who looked at it before shaking.
"I can understand that you don't trust me yet, but trust in that you will learn to do so, just as your parents did." Flaere said, surprising Sonic. "My parents? You knew them?!" he asked while standing on the desk. "Calm yourself. I will explain. Must've been nearly 14 years since I last saw them. Your mother had just given birth to you and place the mark on your back with her own blood. They were perhaps the most powerful Geosynthesizers I'd ever known. Your father was a powerful hedgehog with mastery of various explosive Geosynthesis and your mother was a beautiful young hedgehog with life-enhancing Geosynthesis prowess. Shortly after you were born, it was decided that Bio-Geosynthesis, the most forbidden art of Geosynthesis, would be attempted once again. It would be your father who was caught and synthesized with an unknown material. He went crazy and killed some HRG, devastating some of us. Your mother knew something had to be done, so she left you with her father and synthesized herself to an amulet that your father wore. In the end, she couldn't reach his soul before she died, so they both ended up dying. The project was ended and...that's the end." Flaere said while Sonic sat, taking all that in. "So...so after all that...YOU DID NOTHING!?" he yelled. "We couldn't go against Supreme General Aneggm! His orders are law, and broken law is punishable by death!" he said, sitting Sonic back down. "...but still..." Sonic said. "Regardless, you will stay in the guest room upstairs tonight and go home in the morning."
Later that night, strange growls and sounds kept Sonic up, aside from the haunting images of his parents' demise. He woke up and decided to walk around the building. Many rooms were wide-open with HRGs experimenting, studying and all other things. The sounds became louder as he neared the chapel of the building. "Hmm...it's coming from the other side of the wall..." Sonic said, using Geosynthesis to open the wall and revealed a stairwell. At the bottom was a very large circular room glowing with a red glow. Sonic walked onward until a drop of something hit his shoulder. He froze dead in his tracks when he recognized the look and scent of the liquid. "This is...blood...huh?!" Sonic yelled as he looked up on the ceiling. Hanging from the ceiling were two large steel circles with impailing spikes and on one was General Steele, his body heavily damaged and pierced. "St...Steele!? Don't worry, I'll get help!" Sonic yelled. "No...this was meant to be...in the name of Geosynthesis...my body was to be next..." he said with blood slowly dripping from his mouth. "For the sake of Geosynthesis!? Your life is more important than that!" "My life is Geosynthesis, Sonic...I had nothing left in this world anyway...I lost my wife to a Geosynthesis accident...my little girl was killed as well because of me...I truly wanted this..." "Steele, don't talk like that...! There's...there's still hope for you!" "Sonic, I thank you for your sense of life...I wish I had those same emotions...please, Steel Dragon..." Suddenly, a large steel skeletol-like dragon with six large wings, a curved blade at the tail-tip, sharp claws and green eyes appeared before him. "Go...with Sonic...be his new beast...Sonic...continue my legacy...be my Deathscythe!!..." he yelled before the dragon moved away from his body. Suddenly the other steel circle shook and flew straight at the circle that Steele was on. The circles crashed into each other and all Sonic saw was a large cloud of blood and flesh rain down over him. "SSTTEEEEEELLLLLEEEE!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" Sonic yelled at the top of his lungs, droping to the ground and punching the ground. The bloody rain covered Sonic, his body slightly tinted from the blood. He looked at the Steel Dragon, who looked away from the carnage and entered Sonic's body.
Large black wings formed from his back as large steel claws appeared on his arms and feet. An upside-down V-shaped armor piece appeared on his chest as the dragon head helm appeared on his head. A long steel tail and an energy scythe appeared in his hands before the Steel Dragon form; Deathscythe; became Sonic's form. "Steele...I never got to know you better...I'll continue your legacy..." he said as the blood of Steele coated his scythe, making the blade red instead of green. "It's ashamed, really...Steele was one of my best men..." said Flaere as he stepped down from the stairs. "You...you bastard! If he was your comrade, you could've stopped him! He wouldn't have listened to me!" Sonic yelled as Flaere came closer. "Sonic...Steele chose this himself...Even if I came to stop him, he would've done it...All you can do is honor his dying wish and continue to rise in the ranking." Flaere said as Sonic lowered his head. "Damn it...is that all I can do!?...fine. I will, but mark my words. I will never forget what happened here!" he said before walking out of the room and proceeding to his room. "Huh...He is just a child...It make sense that he doesn't understand the true mission of HRG..." Flaere said before he left the room.
The next morning, a large number of Geosynthesizer gathered to honor Steele's death. "...And so we wish that our dearly departed Steele has a grand passage to the Great Beyond. Though he was with us for only a short time, he spread his loyalties in favor of Science..." the ceremony ended with everyone backing away as an urn with Steele's blood was carried to the grave site. The organ musician played the Graveyard song from Megaman Battle Network 6 as the urn was lowered. Sonic's tears kept falling as the urn was placed. One of the HRG, a female scorpion named Erania, held Sonic until the ceremony was over. "Damn it all...I could've stopped him...I could've saved him..." Sonic kept saying, despite Erania's attempts to calm him. "Shh...trust me, young one. Even I wouldn't have been able to stop Steele...like his name, his will is that of steel. That fool..."sniff"..." even she couldn't hold it in. "Ma'am..." Sonic said as she held tighter until she calmed down. "I'll drop you off if you'd like.." "Umm, no that's okay. I think the run will do me good." Sonic said as he took off. "Steele, please watch over that child. He may be the only chance we have at changing the world of Geosynthesis..." Erania said as she offered one last prayer to Steele. "I'll do whatever it takes to follow his last wish...take care, Steele." Sonic said, reaching his house in only a few minutes. "So, how was the trip?" Rina asked Sonic. "Mostly a business trip. One of the HRG fell on the job...he left his spirit to me..." Sonic said. "Oh, I'm sorry about that." "No, that's okay. He's at peace now, with the people he loves. So, how's the new business?" "I'm the new secretary there now." "Congratulations, that's wonderful." "Thank you for that. Do you have another test tomorrow?" "I think so, that's why I'm gonna study." After the conversation, Sonic looked into his books before sleeping.
The night proved to be horrendous as dreams of Steele's death repeated in Sonic's slumber. He got through the night and made to school the next day. Before leaving, he caught a note stating that Rina would be in the "Wired Pleasantries", which is the new business she semi-runs for the whole day. At school, math class came, the class Sonic loathed. "Hmm...okay here we go. Done." Sonic said, handing in some generic worksheet to the teacher Ms. Viana, generally considered by students to be the hottest teacher in the school. "Hmm, you're getting better, Sonic. Hmm? Is there something wrong, sweetie?' she asked Sonic, who turned the other direction. "I'd rather not say..." he said before returning to his desk. At lunchtime, Sonic sat among his friends. "So, what happened when they took you away?" Tails asked. "They took me to their headquarters and talked to me." Sonic said. "Seems like more than that happened out there." Knuckles said. "Well, one of them died right in front of me and he sent his beast to me." "Oh my god. That's horrible." Cosmo said. "Yeah, but he left me with hope. His hope for my success in the Geosynthesis world. I won't give up yet." Sonic said before the bell rang. Cosmo caught up with Sonic before he reached his next class. "Hey..um, Sonic?" she started. "Oh, hey Cosmo. What's up?" he asked. "You mind meeting me in front of the Study Hall after classes?" "Sure, no problem. See you then."
Back in Geosynthesis class, Mr. Rock saw Sonic make a nice statuette of Steele and the Steel Dragon. "Sonic, I heard what happened to Steele. I'm so sorry about that. That stubborn fool could never have his mind reset." he told Sonic. "Don't worry about it. I'll take care of things with Steele and everything else." Sonic said, finishing the statuette. Once classes were done, Sonic walked over to the now empty Study Hall. No one was in there, adults or students, except for Cosmo outside the door. "Hey, what did you want to see me about?" Sonic asked. "Come with me inside." she said, leading him inside the hall. "I wanted to talk with you about something important." "Sure, what is it?" "Well, I...I just can't get you out of my mind, Sonic. Ever since that day...I really didn't want to do that...that separation we had to do..." "Cosmo, I know what you mean...even with the recent events with Rina, I continued to think of you...I know we're high school students but...I really don't think that should matter..." "That's the conclusion that I came up with. Do you want to come back together, Sonic?" "I'd love to, Cosmo. Even though I'm..." "Shh, don't start that again." she said before in the center of the hall, their lips touched each other's after so long. Even after all that happened, their feelings for each other remained true. "I love you, Cosmo." "I love you, Sonic." they both said as they continued to kiss. Afterwards, they walked out together and were in front of Cosmo's house when her mother came out.
"Oh, Cosmo, you're back. Good afternoon, Sonic." she said. "Oh, good afternoon, ma'am." Sonic said, bowing before her. "Good afternoon, mother. Mother, I'm going over to Sonic's house for this weekend, so I'll see you on Sunday okay?" Cosmo said. "No problem at all. Congrats on coming together again." her mother said. "Thank you, ma'am. I'll be an excellent host." Sonic said. "Of course, let's go out beforehand, okay Sonic?" "Sure thing, Cosmo. Have a good day, ma'am." "See you later, mother." "Have fun, you two." They were off and on the town, so to speak. Meanwhile, at another home, the Cosmo fanatic Tryn was fiddling with his cell phone, having finally gotten Cosmo's cell number. He had a completly well written yet unnecessary plan to accomplish what he believe was the ultimate mission. "This is it...gather courage, Tryn. You finally shall get to confess to Cosmo...she will know how you finally about her." After roughly fifteen minutes, he gave up and closed his cellphone, determined to try again later.
Sonic and Cosmo's date, on the other hand, was going excellent. They saw an action movie and visited a tea house for a refreshing drink after that. He even won a large bear for her to keep. The sun had set by the time they arrived at Sonic's house. "This has been the most perfect day for me. Thank you so much, Sonic." Cosmo told him, kissing his cheek. "Heh, no problem at all, Cosmo. I had a good time too. Well, let's go inside now." he said as they walked inside. Since they already ate during the date and Sonic already studied for Geosynthesis tests, all that was necessary was to wash up for sleep, since a whole Saturday of fun was on the horizon...er, the next morning, at least. Cosmo went in first, since Sonic insisted. She took a shower, loving the setup of the bathroom according to Sonic's design. "Ahh...this is excellent. I love this...although I'd love it more if Sonic was in with me..." she said as she washed the soap. She felt hands on her hips and turned to see that her desire was fulfilled. "Your wish is granted, my beloved." Sonic said with a smile. "Yay! Excellent!" she exclaimed, kissing him as the water dripped down their bodies.
Back to Tryn, who was reaching for the cell phone while contemplating what he would say. "Should I just come out and say it? Gotta lay down the charm to get the ladies, they say. Hmm, no no, I want this to go perfectly. I want her to understand how I really feel about her." he told himself several other things but to list them all would be pointless, now wouldn't it? On a side note, another bet is underway with Tails, Knuckles and Shadow snuck back to the school after hours. On the other side of the door, teachers were ballroom dancing, surprising all three of them. "Well, I'll be damned. Shadow was right." Knuckles said. "Yeah, they really do dance after hours here." Tails said. "Yeah, yeah. You both owe me ten bucks." Shadow said, recieving both the funds and under-breath vows to never bet against Shadow's knowledge again. The teachers looked out the window and saw the three running at top speed, but due to the heat of the moment, decided not to care.
Returning to Sonic and Cosmo, the showering was done, but the love-making had only started. "It's great to be with you again, Cosmo." Sonic said, looking into her eyes. "I feel the same way, Sonic." she replied. Sonic sat down on the throne( if you don't kknow what the throne is, you must be stupid) for a bit, since the heat from the water still floated in the bathroom. Cosmo came closer to Sonic as he placed his hands on her hips. "Haven't done this in a while. You sure you wanna do it?" Sonic said, looking over Cosmo's body. "Of course I do. Our first time was excellent, but I want you now more than ever. Go as hard as you can, Sonic!" she told him. Slowly, he lowered her to his hardened horn, which penetrated her sweet spot. "OH GOD!...the initial sting is still present...!!" she gasped at contact before she settled in on his slow rhythm as he moved her up and down. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he continued pushing into her. "Ah...Ahh...that's so good, Sonic!" she screamed, pleasure filling her body.
In the living room, Cosmo's cell phone was ringing. On the line happened to be Tryn, finally gaining balls and calling her. But, since she was in the bathroom having sex with Sonic, she couldn't pick up the phone. "Hello, this is Cosmo." "Hey, Cosmo! It's..." "If you are calling, I may not be here. Please leave a message." "Damn it..." said Tryn as he put away his phone. "What are you doing, Tryn? Go to her and tell her personally! Yes, that's the ticket." he told himself before grabbing his skateboard and darting to Cosmo's house, though he had no idea where she lived. Meanwhile, the moment with Sonic and Cosmo was intesifying. They were on the floor now as Cosmo was laid out on her front while Sonic continued pushing into her by holding up one of her legs. Cosmo faintly heard the cell phone but decided not to pay attention to it as she got on top of Sonic. Her hands tightly gripped his shoulders as she positioned herself at his point. Sonic placed his hands on her hips and entered her anus, a light gasp escaping her on contact as well as from Sonic. The phone ringed again, this time Sonic heard it clearly, given that it was somewhat below his location. "Umm, Cosmo? I think your phone is ringing." he said as Cosmo gasped at each thrust. "Ahh...don't worry about it...it's probably nothing important..." she said as Sonic slightly increased his speed. "Well, if you say so..." he said. Cosmo stopped for a second so they both could catch their breaths. Sonic placed her on her back and was about to enter her again if not for the cell phone again.
"There it is again. Maybe you should get it, Cosmo." he said, helping her up. "Aww...okay, let's see who it is. They'll recieve an earful if it's something stupid." she said, walking with Sonic downstairs. The phone was on the couch, which Sonic sat down on while Cosmo got the cell phone. When she got it, she took the opportunity to get on top of Sonic and thrusts herself on him while looking at the phone. "Gah! Whoa, didn't expect that at all..." Sonic said, breathing heavily from her surprise. "I'm not done just yet. Anyway, let's see...I wondered if he would ever call me." "Who are you talking about?" "I gave Tryn my cell number since he wanted it, but he never called me." "That was nice of you, considering he is crazy about you." "Yeah, when he heard I was single after we split up, he rushed at the opportunity to start on me, yet he never called or talked to me." "Nervous wreck, that's what he is...ahh!" Sonic exclaimed as Cosmo took her previous position in the other room; hands on his shoulder; and pushed into him. Their rhythm went on until the phone rang one more time. "For the love of...okay, hello?" she said, breathing slightly with her head laying on Sonic's chest as he pushed into her. "C...c...Cosmo? Hi...it's...it's Tryn." "Hello, how can I help you? Ahh!" "Cosmo, you okay?" "Yes, no problem..." "Well, I wanted to come to your house and tell you something, but I got lost. Where do you live?" "Why not just tell me now?...yeah, ya coward." That was Sonic, who unintentionally was listening to the conversation. "Huh? Sonic?" "Yo, what's up?" "Why are you one the line as well?" "Cause I'm in the vicinity. Anyway, you should've said what you wanted to tell her in person." "Cosmo, I shall wait no longer! I truly love you!" "Whoa, I...don't know what to say except...sorry." "What...why?" "Sonic...well, we got back together and he confessed to me..." "Approximately two hours and thirty-five minutes ago, dude." "No way..." Tryn was shocked, if not totally at a lost. Sonic beat him to Cosmo about twice by now. That's when he snapped, though he simply turned off his phone to avoid showing it to Sonic and Cosmo. Tryn went back home and his pillow met the wrath of his broken heart.
"Hmm, he hung up. I guess I could've handled that better..." Sonic said. "Don't worry about it too much, Sonic." Cosmo said to him. "But, I'll never hear the end of it the next time I see him..." "Like you always say, things will work out." "Yeah, I guess. Important tips, first is to tell your potential girlfriend you like them early and to their face to avoid losing your chance. Second is to stay positive and always be on the lookout for that special someone. You never know when they'll show up in your life, like me." Sonic said, making Cosmo smile. "You really do talk to the readers. Tails was right." Cosmo said. "Yeah, though the idea of doing this is from something else. Anyway..." Sonic said, doing his smirk to Cosmo, who winked and resumed their lost rhythm from the cellphone call. That rhythm was increasing in speed and Sonic was feeling slight pressure down below, but he didn't start to be too concerned until five minutes later, when Cosmo was moving up and down herself with her back to his face. The pressure increased and Sonic realized what was happening, the same thing that happened before. "What...?! This pressure...again!?...Augh..." Sonic thought to himself as Cosmo kept going, her moans getting louder with each thrust. Sonic didn't know what was going on with him, but he knew one thing: he needed to get the both of them to the bathroom and fast. What he thought and what he did were two different things though, since his body kept going when Cosmo resumed her previous position with her grip tight on Sonic's shoulders.
"Ahh! Sonic! I feel...This feels...So GOOD!! AHH!! AHH!" she screamed out as a similar pain overtook her lower region. "GAH! What is this feeling!?...It's the same as the first time we had sex...that stuff came out of my...oh GOD!" Sonic screamed out as his own grasp of Cosmo's hips got as tight as Cosmo's grip on his shoulders. He tried to hold it in as best as possible but the pain was proving to be more than he could handle, more than Cosmo could handle. Then, it happened... "AHHHHHH! COSMO, I'M SORRY!!! AHHHHHHH!!!" Sonic yelled. "AHHHHHH! I LOVE YOU, SONIC!!! AHHHHHHHHH!" Cosmo yelled out to him. They both came at the same moment, the pressure released and the pain diminished. Their fluids covered Sonic's horn and flowed from Cosmo's hole as a result. They both were breathing erratically, Cosmo's head on Sonic's chest as they caught their breath. A few seconds later, Sonic gently lifted Cosmo, despite their connection unsevered and the slight pain, and walked up to the bathroom quickly. When he got inside, he ran some water and cleaned himself off and Cosmo. "Man...that stuff was what...I think Cosmo said semen...I don't want that inside of her...that's just sick..." he thought as he gently washed off. When he finished, he placed Cosmo on his bed and sat at the edge, looking at her. "I didn't want to hurt her...I really didn't...why couldn't I stop myself...before it got in her...I really hope I cleaned us good enough..." he thought as he placed a hand on Cosmo's leg and lightly rubbed it before picking up a book and reading it for a while.
Cosmo opened her eyes a few minutes later and saw Sonic put the book down. "Hey, you feeling okay?" he said, lightly holding her hand. "Yes, I'm fine. That was great. We really went over the edge at the same time." she said, returning the feeling. "Yeah...I'm sorry, I should've stopped myself before that happened...I did wash us off but I don't know if that would have an effect at all..." he said, recieving a strong embrace from Cosmo. "The thought is what counts, Sonic. I'm sure we'll be okay. Plus..." she said, circling her pinky on Sonic's chest. "Eh, maybe tomorrow, I'm a little tired. Let's turn in for tonight." he said. "Sure, that's a good idea. I'm a little tired myself." she said as they both climbed into bed. She got on top of him before they slumbered to get ready for a fun Saturday.
Saturday turned out to be a national holiday in Station Square known as Emerald Day. This was a sort-of block party/carnival deal, with lots of big green balloons and decorations abound. Mini games and small shops for souviniers and other things were the main events, and it seemed traditional for Sonic and his friends to attend. Now, the advantage of being with Sonic was that everything was either cheaper or free since he generally helps out with the festivites, plus fame is an added perk. Everyone had a good time and Sonic took this as another date opportunity. He bought Cosmo a nice emerald rose necklace, won a green stuffed animal and treated everyone to all they could eat, although "treated" wouldn't be the term since he didn't have to pay for anything. Out of the corner of Sonic's eye, Tryn walked solemnly with a heavy heart. Being the nice hedgehog he is, Sonic decided to be nice. "Hey, Tryn! You wanna hang with us?" he asked, attracting the young plant's attention. "Wouldn't be fair to let you not enjoy yourself on such a day. I mean, this is supposed to be fun, so what will it take for you to have fun?" he asked Tryn, completely aware of what his answer would be. "Well, I'd like to go on a ride with Cosmo." Tryn replied, to which Sonic and Cosmo stepped aside to talk. "You mind?" he asked her. "Not at all, as long as he doesn't touch me." she said, looking at Tryn's sparkling eyes. "Okay, dude, she said she'll be happy to go on a ride, but I'm laying down the law here. She don't want you to touch her at all, so respect that or I don't respect you. Get me?" he said, staring directly into Tryn's eyes. "Hmm...men who lie don't look directly into another man's eyes so...have fun!" Sonic said smiling, which seemed to freak out the others a little.
The ride Cosmo chose was a doozy of a ride, the Emerald Dive. This was one of those dropping rides where a single car is pulled up about 80-100 feet or something like that, then unceremoniously dropped down at high speeds. This ride had a reputation of sending the weak-stomached to the hospital, considering the ride only lasts for about five seconds. Cosmo was quite fine with this ride, since she goes faster being carried by Sonic than what it could offer. Tryn, on the other hand, was acrophobic and this ride would prove to be the shock of his life. Since he was with Cosmo, he was determined not to seemed weak during the ride and after the ride to impress her. Well, they got on the ride and while Cosmo was totally ready, Tryn was slightly hyperventilating. The car began rising and reached the top in about two minutes. The unfortunate Tryn looked down and nearly lost it when he felt the car slightly move. Five seconds later, the car was on the ground with Cosmo whooping from the rush and Tryn as pale as a ghost. During those five seconds, Cosmo screamed and Tryn screamed as well, if not louder than Cosmo, which seems to be somewhat illogical. Sonic helped them both out of the car and laughed at two things. The first was Cosmo's wind-affected hairstyle with her hair totally flared up. The second was Tryn's face and the fact that he was breathing quite erratically after the ride. Luckily, Sonic had a comb for Cosmo's hair and a bottle of water for Tryn.
The festival came to a close as the sun was winding down, it's remaining rays piercing the giant green glass-piece over the site. It was time to clean up, which because of Sonic, took only three minutes. "Man that was a blast. Well, I gotta go before my mom hordes workshop territory. See ya later, Sonic, and thanks again." Tails said, twirling his tails and taking off. "Yeah, the Master Emerald beckons for me. Later." Knuckles said, the Master Emerald being the only family he's ever known. "Catch you two later, okay?" Shadow said, unleashing his Chaos Emerald and teleporting to the ARK. This left Sonic, Cosmo and Tryn to do whatever. "Hmm, I got one more special surprise for you, Cosmo. You can come with me too, Tryn...if you can keep up!" Sonic said as he scooped up Cosmo and jetted off, leaving Tryn in the dust, literally, since that was the only way for him to know where Sonic was going. It turned out to be a serene hillside overlooking the sea with the perfect view of the sunset. Soft grass and the cool breeze from the ocean made this an excellent, if not romantic, spot to sit at.
"This is one of my sacred spots to relax in...if not also study with total peace. It's also a place where communing with nature feels fulfilling and wonderful. Pretty cool, don't ya think?" Sonic said to Cosmo and Tryn, who were blown away by the location. "It's wonderful out here! I'm really amazed that such a place existed so close to the city." Cosmo said. "It is quite a beautiful place, Sonic. Simply beautiful." Tryn said. "Yup, now you two know the secret of this place. Well, I need to get more relaxed..." Sonic said, taking everything off and folding his clothes into a square to rest his head on. No one had a problem with Sonic being naked, no matter where he was because he did it often. At school, in the city, actually he only wore his clothes at least three out of the five days he goes to school in. Nothing is exposed, so nobody cares too much on it.
Tryn simply watched him do that, wondering if he felt any shame stripping in front of them. "Cosmo...do you really feel something for him?" he asked her. "Yes I do. I know it's strange but I really do love him. He confessed to me first, but still..." she said, looking at Sonic slumber under the setting sun. "I guess I was late on the uptake, but...my feelings will not diminish. No matter what, I'll always love you Cosmo." Tryn said. "I really appreciate that, but my heart belongs to him." Cosmo said. Tryn decided to simply walk off to shed of his clothes to try to feel the nature that Sonic was feeling. When he vanished from sight, Cosmo did the same, afterwards laying over-top of Sonic, her head on his chest. Sensing her presence, Sonic placed his hands on her back as she settled in on him. Two minutes later, Tryn had returned and sat down without opening his eyes. When he did, he almost screamed at the sight he saw. Seeing Sonic naked is nothing, but he never saw a bare female before. Add that to seeing the girl of his dreams naked and you can understand what he was feeling right now. His thorn immediately straighten to his surprise, causing him to cover it with his hands. He felt totally aroused and struggled to maintain control over himself. That proved to be utterly difficult when he got behind her, his mind telling him no, but his body saying yes. When he got too close, his shadow darkened Sonic's already dark view, due to his eyes being closed. "Huh...? What are you doing...?" Sonic asked Tryn, who backed up immediately. "Oh, um...well, I was just on my way home now! I..uh..forgot my clothes and uh..." he said to Sonic, who didn't quite grasp what was going on. "Couldn't resist nature, could ya mate?" he asked with a smile, but focused and saw Cosmo asleep on his body. "Man, didn't think she was that tired. Better go myself, catch ya later, guy!" he said, and after dressing them both, he was off. Tryn was off as well, remaining freaked out about what happened.
When Sonic and Cosmo arrived back, the phone rang. "Hello? Oh, hello ma'am. Sure, she's right here. Cosmo, your mom wants to ask ya something." Sonic said, handing her the phone. "Hello, mother. Cosmo, tomorrow is the floral service. Do you think you can get here by nine in the morning? Sure, no problem at all. See you then, mother. Sonic..." Cosmo was cut by Sonic. "No problem, let's see here. It'll take me maybe two minutes to get you home, so if we're ready by 8:50 AM, you'll make it. I could run you and your mother to the spot as well." he said. "Thank you so much for that, I'm sure she'll appreciate that as well." "No big deal at all, Cosmo. Well, better get ready for that then." Sonic said. After light showering, they slept until about eight in the morning, when Sonic's alarm rang out. He rushed the both of them in the shower, cooked up breakfast and was out the door by 8:30. At Cosmo's house, her mother Hertia awaited and was surprised at how early they were. "Thank you for this favor, Sonic." she told the hedgehog. "No problem, ma'am. Well, let's get going!" Sonic said, lifting the both of them and rushing off according to Hertia's directions. The site was a chapel-like building covered with flowers and vines. "Wow, this is cool. Well, here you go,ladies. I gotta get back now, so I'll catch you later." Sonic said. "Okay and thank you, Sonic. Have a good day." Hertia said, recieving a bow from Sonic. "Wait up, Sonic!" Cosmo said, walking over to him. "What's up?" "Thanks for the awesome weekend. I really enjoyed myself. I'll see you later, okay?" she said, embracing and kissing him before walking back over to her mother. Sonic; after one last wave; was off with the wind, returning to Station Square in short order.
Sonic recieved an email from Rina once he got inside. "Hmm, let's see what we got here. Sonic, I'd like to thank you for everything you've done for me. Because of you, I've aspired to move up in the business, eventually becoming the top owner of Wired Pleasantries. I've got my own place in the building itself and everything is just perfect. For everything, you are entitled to free stuff here, so thank you so much Sonic. Feel free to stop on by at anytime. Good luck for every aspect of your life! Love, Rina Yuki. Heh, she's really made it. I'm happy for her." Sonic said, turning everything off and heading downstairs to watch T.V. In the regular mail, a letter from the HRG came in. "What's this? Dear Sonic, report to the schoolyard for a surprise test by me, General Flaere. Make it snappy. Impatient little bugger, huh? Here we go!" Sonic said, rushing off to the schoolyard. When he go there, a lot of Geosynthesizers and spectators alike crowded the place. In the center was Flaere, with a deathful gaze on Sonic. "You're late, Geosynthesizer of the Wind." he said to Sonic. "Whoa, hold on there. I got the letter like a minute ago, so don'e blame me." Sonic complained. "Fine, fine. Well, let's get started." he said, rushing at Sonic with fiery daggers in both hands. Sonic didn't bother using a beast and picked up a small pipe to Geosynthesize into a longsword. Their blades struck and the sparks from Flaere caused small burns to appear on Sonic's arms. "Damn it, that burns..." he said, swinging the sword but missing Flaere completely. Flaere came up and slashed across Sonic's back, causing him to scream in pain as Flaere leaped over him and sliced on of his two Geolinks. "One down, Sonic. One down." he said as Sonic slowly stood up. He noticed that Flaere had three links and knew he needed a new strategy. Sonic threw his sword into the air and watched it drop, the blade snapping in half. Both pieces were Geosynthesized into a duel-bladed weapon, which Sonic grabbed and rushed at Flaere. Flaere jumped up and dodged one slash, but couldn't avoid the other, which hacked his back and one of his links. Flaere gained a smirk as he watched Sonic advance closer to him. In what seemed like a split second, Flaere was very close to Sonic, who stopped in midstep with his mouth wide-open. Blood dripped from his belly as Sonic went down on his knees from the impact of the blow. "It must hurt to be burned and stabbed at the same time, huh?" Flaere said. Sonic simply watched his blood slowly drip from his stomach and placed his hand in the small pool beneath him.
A mysterious voice rang out in his head as his hands got soaked in the blood. "Finally...finally...I...shall...return..." said the voice as the blood began glowing. Flaere stopped immediately and looked with utter fear in his eyes at Sonic's body when he saw what happened. "No...he didn't...HE GEOSYNTHESIZED HIS OWN BLOOD!? That will unleash..." Flaere said as a large pillar of red light covered Sonic's body. Within that light, Sonic was undergoing a transformation, with loud screams and growling as well. On his arms, red gauntlets with yellow claws appeared, on his legs, red spiked greaves appeared, his chest was covered with a chestplate with a green sphere in the center and large shoulder coverings. Small red wings appeared on the side of the black helm with red horns of the forehead. On his right arm was a small red sheild with a black tail-like weapon coming out of it. Large red wings sprouted from his back as the form was finished. "He's returned...the Cursed Dragon of Blood, Epyon!" Flaere yelled as the pillar of light dissipated and exposed Sonic(look up Epyon for Gundam Wing for the form). Sonic's eyes glowed green as he growled menacingly at everyone around him. "Hmm, so this is the child who could possess us...interesting. Your name is Sonic the Hedgehog, correct? Very well, your body works just fine. Fear encompasses you all, for the Great Beast of Blood returns! I AM EPYON!!!" he roared to the masses, who were quite scared. "Epyon! You die today!" Flaere said, rushing at Sonic with his flame daggers. As soon as he came close, Sonic was on the other side of him, the tail glowing red with energy. Flaere's remaining Geolinks were severely damaged and he jumped back, his shoulders wounded from Sonic's unseen attack. "Heh, mortals like you deserve not the power of Geosynthesis." Epyon said, watching with sadistic pleasure the sight of Flaere's weakened body. He walked over to the fiery Geosynthesizer and was ready to finish him but he stopped. "Ahh, the will of this young one is strong...very well. You live today, but know that threatening this hedgehog shall result in your life lost." Epyon said, before Sonic's eyes stopped glowing and he was back in control. "Sonic...didn't anyone ever tell you...augh..." Flaere couldn't finish, he was too weak from the battle. Since ranking wasn't involved here, Sonic's emblem didn't change and a new beast wasn't gained besides Epyon. Completely surprised by what happened, Sonic was also in deep shock and flew off, assuming Epyon's flight form and going home. That same night, Sonic looked over a particular book that he over looked entitled: Incidents of Geosynthesis' Past.
"Now let's see...Two centuries ago, many Geosynthesis beasts and Geosynthesizers existed as one. However, one beast was extremely destructive. His name was The Red Dragon of Blood, Epyon. It's destructive behavior wasn't without purpose, yet the Geosynthesizers knew he needed to be surpressed. For many years they fought and died at the hands of Epyon until a great blade was plunged into Epyon's body, his blood producing a pool beneath him. This sword came to be known as the Cursed Sword of Epyon and proved to be the first key to sealing the beast. The Geosynthesizer then went against ancient teachings and synthesized themselves to submerge the beast beneath it's own blood. Because of this, their souls were lost and bodies destroyed, yet they succeeded in sealing Epyon. Epyon, however, wouldn't die so easily and assimilated himself with the blood, vowing to return when blood was synthesized. To this day, Geosynthesizers are taught and reminded to never Geosynthesize their own blood." After he read that, Sonic felt extremely guilty. Not only did he unleash such a fierce power on the world, but it resided within his body. That didn't scare him as much as when Epyon appeared before him, reaching the ceiling of his room and staring at the blue hedgehog. Sonic's room was pretty big, so Epyon pretty much fit well. "You needn't feel guilty, young Sonic. You should feel proud!" said the massive dragon to a shaking Sonic. "E...Epyon! Are you gonna...?" Sonic said as the dragon's head came with an inch to his body. "Of course not. Like your other beasts, I am now a part of you, as you are a part of me. I shall not cause harm to you, but I still require the use of your body." said the dragon. "What do you mean?" Sonic said, a little more calm. "Unlike your other beasts, I have my own personal agenda, but that shall not concern you until the moment arrives. So, for lack of a better word, relax." Epyon said before re-entering Sonic's body. A few minutes later, Tails called Sonic.
"Hello? Oh hey Tails, what's up?" Sonic asked. "Sonic...come to the school...fast." Tails said, hanging up afterwards. Sonic ran off and made to the school shortly. What he saw frightened him greatly. The schoolyard was pocketed with craters and stains of what looked like blood, the school itself had large holes in the walls, windows were broken and large gashes in the wall were present. "What...what the hell happened here?!" Sonic asked Tails. "I just got here a few minutes ago after picking up some raw materials. The place got really fucked up, as you can see." said the fox. Suddenly, a dark sillhouette appeared and took the form of a dark-purple female hedgehog wearing a red dress. Her hands were covered with black gloves and behind her quills was a long mane of dark-blue hair. "Well...I've finally located you..." she said, looking at Sonic. "Grr...who are you?" Sonic said as the women moved slowly towards them. "My name is Vrasai...I am what is called "a mistake"..." she said. "A mistake...? What do you mean..?" Sonic asked. "That is the title I was given by my creators, HRG... mistakes are creations from the streams of life within the planet...combined with lifeless marionettes...to return to life again..." she said, snapping Sonic to attention. "The HRG? They made you?" Sonic said. "I have looked for you with the help of my assistants...looked for a long time..." she said, with a vast amount of shadowed creatures behind her. "Stay back, Tails..." Sonic said, to which Tails did. "Your mark, Sonic...your Geo-mark..." she said, shocking Sonic. "You know me?! Wait, you know about my birthmark!?" he asked as she came close to him. "Yes, yes I do...I need your help...to finish my Geo-mark...I need your mark..." she said. "Come and get it! Feather Dragon!" Sonic said, changing into that form and charging forward with two blades. When he swung, she grabbed both swords, the clashing of steel was the impact sound. "What the hell...!? Your arms...clashed with my...?!" Sonic couldn't finish because Vrasai threw the swords off and knocked Sonic down on his front. She also severed all of his Geolinks, disabling his transformation.
"Damn...she's strong...how does she know about my mark...?" Sonic said as Vrasai got overtop of him. She extended some extremely long claws and struck across Sonic's back, tearing open his shirt and exposing the mark on his back. "Ahh...just the way I remember it..." she said, simply staring at the mark. "Agh! Get off, get off!" Sonic protested but she didn't pay attention, turning him so he was looking her in the eyes. "Look..." she said, pulling down the front of her dress and causing great disbelief. On her breasts and slightly above her stomach, the exact same mark that was on Sonic's back was present there, except for a diamond-shaped part. "No...no way...no Geosynthesizer has the same mark as another unless connected by blood...but it can't be..." he said as he was on his front again. "I need your mark...to regain my Geosynthesis abilities...be still..." she said, grasping Sonic's back to her bare chest, causing a bright light to shine and great pain to Sonic. "AAAHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!! IT BURNS SO BAD!!!! AAHHHHH!!" yelled Sonic as the light intensified. Suddenly, Knuckles appeared and punched the hell out of the lady, with Shadow launching Chaos Spears at her, flinging her from Sonic. Sonic went down hard, breathing hard as the pain subsided. "Ahh...your friends... it's okay...my mark is complete." she said, her mark looking exactly like Sonic's now. "Thank you Sonic...this will not be the last that we meet...I promise you that..." she said. "Who the hell are you and what did you do to Sonic?!" Knuckles said. "Calm yourself, echidna. Sonic is fine now." Shadow said, looking over to the hedgehog. "Until next we meet...goodbye, my Son...ic..." she said, walking off into the darkness. "No...it can't be...it's not possible..." said Sonic. "I've heard that Geosynthesis marks are never the same unless bloodlines are similar...would that mean...but that's not possible...right?" asked Tails. "That women...could she have been...my mother...?" Sonic said. "Don't bet on it. It could be mere coincidence...you said yourself that your parents were dead, right...?" Knuckles said. "Yeah...but she had the same mark as me...anyway, I'm going home. I gotta get ready for tomorrow." Sonic said. "Oh yeah, that's right. I forgot that tomorrow is an important day for you..." Tails said. "Yeah, we won't be going this time, though." Shadow said. "You gonna be okay, Sonic?" Knuckles said. "Yeah, it's cool. Have a good day off, since you won't be going into the school like this..." Sonic said before he was off.
On Sonic's calender was a mark on tomorrow's date, the day he was speaking of. Before he went to sleep, his cellphone rang. "Hello?" Sonic said. "Hey, Sonic. Tails told me what happened at the school. You okay?" she asked. "Yeah, the school didn't fare too well, but otherwise, no problem. I guess you get a day off tomorrow." "Why do you say that? Do you have another test tomorrow?" "No, I gotta go somewhere tomorrow...I'm gonna go see my parents. The grave, at least." "Really? Mind if I accompany you?" "No, not at all. I'll pick you up at 9 AM. No specific attire. See you then." "Okay, good night Sonic." "Pleasant Dreams, Cosmo." he closed his phone and went to sleep, to be ready for tomorrow's events.
