Flowing Pedals Of Light- Above Who We See
By InuSonishaUnlimited
A story that I've been thinking about for the longest time, Sonic x Cosmo. I don't own any of the SEGA characters here and my fan characters will be identified in the story. Rated for sex and violence, along with language. Not a single flame will be accepted, but suggestions are welcomed. If you don't like the couple, don't read the damn story. From here, another source will be used from a recent anime I saw and enjoyed, thus I'll say what it is at the start of the chapter.
Chapter 18: A Grave Misunderstanding(High Amount of Cursing)
The morning sun proved to be brutal to Sonic as it bursts through his window. When he woke up, he found Niensia still asleep at the edge of the bed. "Oh...you're still here...I thought it was a dream." he said sleepily. He got up and got in the shower, lightly washing Niensia afterwards. After that, he carried it downstairs and cooked up something to eat, wearing his dark-blue vest over a short-sleeve white shirt. He also wore a red skirt with similar colored boots similar to his normal shoes. Around his legs were black belts and on his head was a blue beret with the Omega Force Gem insignia on it. Niensia evilly smirked about his choice of clothes. "Oh, please. You change forms. You have any idea what you look like?" he responded, removing that smirk from it's face. Then it finally hit him. "Shit...I gotta take this ninetails with me...and I can't call for babysitting now...this will cause some major problems at school today..." he thought, synthesizing a stroller and walking out of the door before dashing and making it to school on time.
"Now then, I'm back in school so let's give some new tips. Subjects today would be Self-Esteem and Misunderstandings. Self-esteem is important because without it, people will make you do some really horrible things." Sonic said, pointing to a student digging his head in a trash can and recieving pats on the back from "popular kids". "Never feel the need to do things just for the acceptance of others. It hurts you and it hurts those who care about you. Now for an topic that is evident within many people; Misunderstandings. This can be caused by a few things. Most of the time it's caused by rumors, when kids say you like someone you've never even considered going that far with." he said, showing two students talking about their questionable relationship. "Another cause is your actions, whether it's talking to someone or being seen in a questionable position." he said, pointing to a student with his face close to an unfamiliar girl. "Finally, like me, certain circumstances can influence misunderstandings. Wearing certain clothes can make people think you're a transsexual, speaking a certain way can cause similar assumptions and of course, carrying an infant that isn't yours will cause misunderstandings." he said as students converged upon him.
"What an adorable little child you have!" a random female student said to him. "It's not my child." Sonic said simply. "Is it a he or a she?" "Neither of them." "So who's the lucky mother?" "It wasn't born from anyone! Lay off!" he said, dashing around the corner and bumping into Tails. "Bad morning?" he asked as Sonic helped him back up. "Yeah, everyone thinks this little one is mine. Do you see any resemblence? Huh, do you!?" he said, Tails looking at him like he was crazy. "I'm...I'm sorry, okay? This ninetails appearing and my recent banishment...I'm tired, okay? Just tired..." Sonic said. "Hey, it's no big deal. Relax, like you said, don't let the misunderstanding get to you." Tails said, patting his friend on the back. "Yeah, thanks Tails." he said with a smile as he walked into class, with mouths agape all around. "What?" Sonic said as he walked in, looking at Mr. Rock, who although you wouldn't realize it, looked the same. "You got a kid already?" he said jokingly, which Sonic responded with slight laughter. "Real funny, but no." "I know that, Sonic." "Then why the heck did you ask?" "Just curious. Plus, looks nothing like you...or Cosmo." "Heh heh...yeah...just as I thought."
During the class, Niensia was a little antsy. "Huh? What's the matter? Hungry?" Sonic asked, producing out of nowhere a large shiny crystal, that Niensia simply sucked and chomped on. "Who would've thought you like rock candy?" he said, regaining focus for class. After eating, Sonic held Niensia and rocked it during class, which everyone sort of watched. After class, Sonic walked through the halls more calm since everyone was clear that it wasn't his child. "Finally, some peace...huh?" he said as an insidious dark aura radiated from the schoolyard. Within it was a very, very big ten-armed creature with a boney elephant's head and skeleton bear claws with three scorpion tails. "Holy shit, what the hell...is this a Mistake!?" he yelled, attracting the thing's attention. It charged at Sonic, who dived out of the way with Niensia in his grasp, the Mistake crashing through the school and leveling most of the building. Niensia turned into it's serpent form and curled around his arm, it's glowing head charging with purple flame. "Niensia...are you...?" Sonic asked. "Sonic...go forth..." it said as Sonic held his arm and unleashed a stream of purple fire at the Mistake. The flames went through, but not completely, stretching it's elastic-like skin to frightening lengths. It's body stretched back into shape as the flames drew back. "This could be a problem..." Sonic said...
Meanwhile, on the opposite building, Cosmo was walking through the hallways to class. "Hmm, I guess I'll make it into class..." she thought as she took some things out of her locker. Suddenly, Sonic crashed through the locker directly next to her, crashed through the other side and landed on the floor. "Damn...this Mistake is one tough hombre...oh hey Cosmo. You should run..." he said, getting up slowly. "What happened to you?...What the hell!?" "Yeah...that's a big boy out there." Sonic said with his smirk on as the face of the beast. Sonic charged back and Niensia gripped it's face with it's fangs. The massive Mistake growled and shook violently as Niensia's fangs dug deep, blue blood dripping with it's gaping maw flooded, some of the blood hitting Sonic's face. "Come on...Now, Niensia! ROYAL FLAME!!" he said as Niensia unleashed a huge stream of fire, blowing the Mistake's head off horrendously. It wasn't done as it whipped it's arms crazily, Sonic hopping from arm-to-arm to avoid being hit. The large body finally slumped over and fell, a huge lake of blood spreading all over the damage done to the school. "Hmm...that could take a while to clean up." Sonic said, watching as the blood swirled and formed a very strange symbol on the ground. "Never seen that before...what is that?" he said, walking over until the symbol disappeared, the school's damage disappearing along with it. "Okay...lessens my work, I guess..." he said as he walked off, noticing the symbol blinking with appearance with each step he took until it was completely gone.
The next day, Sonic arrived in school and noticed everyone looking at a large green, glowing crystal. "What's everyone looking at?" he asked, unmesmerized by the rock. "It just came in. Isn't it awesome?" asked Mr. Rock, recieving an "I don't care" look from Sonic. "You're a rock. Chances are you think this rock is hot or something." Sonic said, steaming puffs exiting Mr. Rock's...head. "Now you're being rude, mister!" he said jokingly. By lunchtime, Sonic was sort-of by himself since everyone else was looking at the mysterious rock. "Jeez, what's so cool about a glowing rock?" he asked seemingly nobody. "That rock...it disturbs me. We must be very cautious around it, Sonic." Shiorae said. "Well, if it's bugging you, there must be something up..." Sonic said as his friends showed up. "Hey, what's going on?" Tails asked. "Where is everyone?" Knuckles asked. "Looking at the glowing stone the school got today." Sonic said, not opening at his eyes. "A...a rock?" Shadow asked. "I know, right? Something is amiss and I"m gonna find out what." Sonic said, getting up. "We should all go. Just in case." Cosmo said, recieving a nod from Sonic. They all coverged on the scene, seeing Eggman there at the door.
"Out the way, V.P. We got things to do with that rock." Sonic said, his fist clenched. "No, Sonic. My rock has some things to do with you! Now, Metal! UNLEASH YOUR POWER!!" Eggman said, large crystals crashing through the door. "Metal!? What are you...no way..." Sonic said as a crystallized form of Metal rose from where the stone was. "Heh heh, my latest experiment with Geosynthesis. In exchange for more power, Metal put his body up for the experimentation, which was a success. It has metamorphisized his body into an Eternus Crystialia, or my own creation, Perpetual Crystal. As long as the central core of the crystal stands, the crystal will never stop growing, devouring, gaining more power. Get them, Metal!" Eggman yelled, covering the whole area in a field of crystals. The force of the attack pushed Sonic outside of the school, watching the entire building be covered in the stuff. "Oww...wait. Where's Cosmo and the others? Are they...!?" Sonic thought as he looked at the school, then at his clothes, which were slightly torn. "Ahh...whatever. I gotta get in! Feather Dragon Head!" Sonic cried out, producing the dragon head on his right hand. "WAIT!!" Shiorae yelled, stopping the hedgehog. "What's wrong, Shiorae!? We gotta hurry or..." "That crystal has a bad effect on Geosynthesis. You use that cannon, the crystal will absorb it!" "What!? So if I shoot the cannon...Metal will have possess the Feather Dragon beast?!" "Exactly! Wait until we find the core to pull out the heavy power! Just break through normally!" "Shiorae...okay then." Sonic said as he put away the head and dashed towards the crystal-covered school. He kicked through the crystal wall covering the school's door, shouting after going through and entering the school. "You okay?" asked Shiorae. "I just kicked through sharp, deadly crystals, what do you think!?" Sonic shouted, looking at the cuts on his legs. "Well, that's what you get for wearing a damn skirt." "...heh, good point."
The school glowed with an ominous dark-green glow, white light piercing the darkness occasionally. "Damn...this is one huge mess...huh? Knuckles!" Sonic yelled as he saw Knuckles' body trapped in a large crystal. After smashing through with a spin dash, Sonic pulled Knuckles out. "Damn...Sonic? I think that crystal was evil..." Knuckles said. "Yeah...yeah it was...and now...THE WHOLE MOTHERFUCKING SCHOOL HAS BEEN TAKEN OVER!!! AARRGGHH!!" Sonic said, thrashing about for a second before regaining his composure. "Sorry, Knuckles...too much going on and..." he started as Knuckles calmed him down. "Hey, you're just stressed out. Come on, let's take care of business. You seen the others?" "No...that's what concerns me...You look on this floor, I'm going upstairs." "Right, good luck and ya might want to wrap some bandages on those cuts." Knuckles said as he walked off. "Does everyone have a problem with what I wear...whateva..." Sonic said, dashing upstairs.
Knuckles found Tails covered by a group of crystals. "Shit, here I come, buddy!" Knuckles yelled, pounding his fists at the crystals until he reached Tails. After busting up the crystals, Tails was out with small shards pierced on his arms. "Man...thanks a lot, Knuckles. Geez, your gloves..." Tails said, looking at Knuckles' gloves, which were ripped slightly from the breakthrough. "Ehh...battle scars...come on, we gotta find Shadow and fast. Sonic's on the warpath with worry." "I can understand, considering what's happening, he doesn't need this. Let's hurry." Tails said as they dashed out to the biolab, where Shadow was seen last. He was covered in the crystal when they arrived when suddenly, his hands burst from the crystals, sheered slightly with cuts on his arms. Tails and Knuckles, to say the least, weren't too surprised. "...Pay up." Shadow said, recieving twenty bucks from both Knuckles and Tails. "I'm not betting him anymore..." Knuckles said. "Yeah, you said that last time..." Tails said. "Either way, we gotta get upstairs and fast." Shadow said as they dashed upstairs.
When they arrived, they saw Sonic flying with his foot at the ready towards some crystal ahead of him. "AARRRGGGHH!!" he yelled as he crushed the crystal, setting free Rouge. "Damn it to fucking hell!! Argh, gotta keep going!" Sonic yelled, dashing in a new direction and leaving Rouge to the others, who arrived shortly after Sonic's enraged assault. "I surprised he didn't hit her at all with that attack." Tails said. "Yeah...he's definitely under some major stress here." Shadow said, looking in the direction that Sonic dashed towards. "Man, you okay Rouge?" Knuckles asked, recieving a strong embrace as a response. "What's wrong with Sonic?" she asked the others. "What isn't wrong with that hedgehog these days?" Shadow responded, listening to a loud crash, followed by a string of profanities. "We might want to track him down..." Tails said. "Good idea. Let's go." Knuckles said as they dashed after him.
When they saw him, they almost were scared. Sonic stood, breathing heavily with blood streaming down his arms and legs and growling menacingly. "Geez, I told you to wrap those up!" Knuckles said, rushing over to see the wounds. "I know...I know, mom." Sonic said sarcastically, recieving rolled eyes from Knuckles. "Have you found anybody else beside Rouge, Sonic?" Tails asked. "Only Amy, Cream and Blaze, but they dashed out of the school by following my trail of destruction. They were only scratched up a little, though, no big deal. Thanks, Knuckles." he said, getting up as Knuckles wrapped bandages around his legs. "Well, what's the plan now?" Shadow asked. "I've gotta find Metal's crystal ass and fuck it up to next year! He's the central core of this mess! He dies, this crystal dies! ...Sorry..." Sonic said as he started moving into the room where the crystal sat before the mess started.
"Well, well, well...so you made without Geosynthesis. Impressive! But now you are too weak to put up any resistance to destroy the central core!" Eggman said, noticing Sonic's blood-soaked bandages. "Stick it up your dirty ass, why don't ya?" Sonic said with a scowl. "Okay, now that's just rude, mister." Eggman said, snapping and making Metal arrived from a large cluster of crystals. "Target insight...Preparing to unleash arsenal..." Metal said, it's crystal body shimmering in the limited light. "You goddamn, shining motherfucker..." Sonic said lowly as he started walking towards Metal. He rose higher and exposed his central core, showing some of the staff and some students deep within the core. "So that's where everyone else was...what the fuck!?" Sonic yelled noticing Cosmo within the core. "Oh you are SO DEAD!!!" Sonic yelled, dashing straight at Metal.
Sonic jumped into the air, fly-kicking Metal in the middle of the core. Metal's response was a long, jagged arm of crystal at Sonic's face, smashing him into the ground. A large cut formed on his right cheek from the blow as he stood up. "Grr...someone's been upgraded. DAMN YOU, YOU CRYSTAL BITCH!!" Sonic yelled, doing the same attack, getting the same result on the same spot. "Sonic, you need to calm down!" Tails yelled. "No, you guys need to help me!!" he yelled, charging forward again. Knuckles jumped and slammed his fist through the same spot Sonic created. The crack widened and Metal lunged at Knuckles, which was a pretty good accomplishment considering that he's supported by a big crystal connected to his body. Knuckles crashed through a wall of crystal, swearing as he went, as Tails struck the same spot in a ball form. The result was an even bigger crack, but Metal wasn't having that as he formed a crystal hand and gripped Tails. "Let go of my best friend, you psychotic rock!!" Sonic yelled, smashing the hand and setting Tails down. "Thanks, Sonic." he responded, Sonic looking over to Metal. "Okay...this isn't working...relax, Sonic...okay, now I'm relaxed...relaxed enough to perform better..." Sonic told himself as he slowly walked over to Metal. He looked at the crack and within the core, preparing another strike. "Metal...obviously, one of us has to go. You want it to be me and all I want is for you to release everyone. Do me that favor, eh?" he said, Metal growing more menacing as he reared up a large column of crystal and unleashed it at Sonic. He back-flipped, kicking the column at it's point and jamming it at the crack. It opened enough for Sonic to bounce from a wall to the crack, bursting through it and entering the crystal. "Okay then...now what?" Sonic thought. "In order to free everyone...we gotta take this out. Simple as that. Get out and destroy the core." Shiorae said. "Got it." Sonic responded as he reached for Cosmo. After grabbing her, he hopped out and stood before Metal.
Cosmo opened her eyes and saw Sonic. "Okay, let's go get him, Cosmo!" Sonic said, getting in a combatative stance. Cosmo drew her sharp vines at her fingertips and stood next to Sonic. "Yes...let's take him out." she responded as they dashed at Metal. As towers of sharp crystals raced towards them, Cosmo swung her vines and hacked them down as they got closer. Sonic pulled out the Feather Dragon Head again and began charging. "Remember, you only have one shot here. If he's not taken out by the shot, he will counter with the very same cannon. In other words..." Shiorae stopped as Sonic stopped charging. "Don't screw up. I know." Sonic said as he prepped up. "Cosmo, get back now. It's time to finish this." he said as Cosmo stood next to him again. "Ready, Sonic?" she asked. "Oh yeah. Adios, mi amigo malo." Sonic said as the cannon unleashed a large, blue stream of energy along with his other arm, Niensia curled on it, unleashing a heavy stream of purple fire. The resulting attack was a spiraling stream of purple and blue energy, nailing Metal's core dead on and blasting the entire area to smithereens. As the smoke cleared, Metal's head was laying on the ground and all of the crystals were gone. The staff of the school and the remaining students students were freed as Eggman walked slowly away. "In your face, you stupid asshole!" Sonic said as he looked over to the spot where Eggman was. "...Eggman?" he said when he noticed he wasn't there. Afterwards, everyone walked to the front foyer as Sonic prepared to fix the school...again. "Next time, Eggman's ass is paying for this. With actual money, mind you." he said as he unleashed his Geosynthesis ability and the damages disappeared as well.
After those events, the next day seemed simple as Sonic walked to school with a smile on his face. As he neared the building, Niensia appeared out of the stroller. "What's wrong with you, Niensia? Hungry?" he asked as the ninetails stood. "Enter...the...stone, Niensia." it said as it jumped into the Omega Force Gem. "Okay...I'm gonna investigate who the hell Niensia is." he thought as he entered the school and proceeded directly to the library. Once there, he located a really old book entitled Convenient Things About Certain Creatures That I Want To Know. "Hmm...I wonder if it's possible that this library knows what the reader thinks before he/she enters...Naw. Let's see, now. Here it is, the Unknown Devil? Hmm...During the age of high Geosynthesis, many creatures roamed the Over Realms and Under Realms. Of these creatures, one was both loved and feared, the Ninetails of the Unnamed, the Unknown Devil. This creature was known to be both young and old, evil and good, yet it's true design has been speculated. It was known to be either a Ninetails or a Demonic Bear, however, the common fact remained that it possessed the very same strength as the beast of all creation, Nexus. The belief was that the Unknown Devil was an ascendent of Nexus when it returned to the heavens to begin worldly judgement....end of the reading. Not too much info on it at all...Well, it Niensia is the ascendent of Nexus, does that mean it can create and destroy as well?" Sonic asked. "Yes, it is true. Niensia can create things, as well as destroy them. The reasoning behind this is unclear, yet it is indeed fact." Nexus responded from the gem. "Hmm...well, I guess Niensia will be fine as long as it's with me, right?" "Correct. Take care of Niensia and it will take care of you." "Hey, doesn't Niensia have a gender?" "No, Niensia is in fact genderless." Sonic sat with a confused look on his face.
He walked to class and saw Tryn standing at the front. "Hey, what's going on?" he asked. "Oh, hey Sonic. Well, I have a little issue with Diandria. I have reason to suspect that she's using me." "Really? Why do you think that?" "Well, she still looks at you, sometimes for long periods of time." "I see...well, I'll talk with her for you." Sonic walked to where Diandria was sitting. "Hey, Diandria. Tryn is concerned that..." "Great, you're here. I need to talk with you about Tryn." "Wait, what?" "I think he's still into Cosmo and doesn't really like me as much as he says. I mean, I went over to his house with him and all I saw on his wall were pictures of Cosmo." "...I have lost all due respect for him. Anyway, he thinks you're doing the same with me." What? That is total...well..." "I guess you both have some issues to talk about with each other. I'm not gonna be a mediator for you guys. Talk with each other, okay?" Sonic said as the bell rang and everyone left the classroom. Diandria and Tryn met outside the classroom and created an atmosphere of silence until Tryn spoke up. "Hey, Diandria. Sonic talked to me and..." "He talked with me too...about...us." "Yeah...listen, I'm really sorry. I've been meaning to take down the pictures but..." "I'm sorry too. I really was looking at Sonic a lot lately...I really wasn't thinking about how you'd feel and..." "Hey, don't worry about it. Shall we go out?" "Yes, thank you Tryn." They held each other's hands as they walked out of the school. Sonic walked over to the bulletin board and saw a new class starting tomorrow. "Hmm? What's this? Random Development Course? Sounds fun!" he said as he walked out, unknowing of the strange events that would occur the next day...
