Guardian Demise: The End of The World
By InuSonishaUnlimited
Quick Disclaimer: I don't own any character owned by SEGA in this story, nor some concepts you may recognize throughout the story. Anything that seems unfamiliar is most likely mine, unless stated otherwise. This takes place two years after Guardian Sin: To That Which Is Ours and is the final part of the Guardian trilogy. Now it's Sonic x OC, so there you go. Rated M for violence, language, acts of brutality and sexual content, however, I promise that the sexual content will be very minor, bordering on rare in this story. Also, this one will be written differently than the others. I will be giving my content warnings in the chapters that supply them, so there won't be any issues with that. No flames, but I will take suggestions, be it character inclusion or other stuff. Well, let's get this started and I hope you enjoy the last Guardian story.
Phase 2: From Beyond the Stars and Into the Sea
Station Square: Hillside
- Tuesday evening 9:10 PM
Quikxorn noticed Sonic beginning to stir and saw his eyes opening, relieving the stress he had. "Huh...? Oww...Quikxorn? Is that you? It's been so long..." Sonic said as he slowly got up with Quikxorn's help. "It's only been about two years, but I am glad to see you as well, Visandre...Sonic." he said as they exchanged a brotherly hug. "So, what brings you about?" Sonic asked as they sat down, watching the meteor shower. "This meteor shower is the beginning..." Quikxorn said while staring intently into the night sky. "Beginning of...what?" "...the unholy battle...of Ragnorak..." Sonic stared at Quikxorn, completely unaware of what he was talking about, yet had within him great fear of the name Ragnorak. "Ragnorak?...Why does that seem so familiar to me? I've never heard of that yet..." Sonic thought carefully and within his mind, flashes of images showing bloody battles and slain bodies circled. "You saw it right? That is Ragnorak, the bloodiest battle this world has ever been in, yet also the "battle that is easily forgotten"." Quikxorn said. "The battle that is easily forgotten? Why is that?" "When Ragnorak passes, the victor remains and the loser...begins anew." "Begins anew?" "The world is completely wiped out...and reshaped...mo one ever remembers Ragnorak because everyone who was there is destroyed..."
Sonic stopped dead, his heart racing after hearing that. "So...our world...is gonna be faced with that?" Sonic asked. "Well, technically, you and your friends will be fighting the battle to ensure the world's survival." Quikxorn said. "Then again, it ain't just his world that gets affected." a mysterious voice said. Suddenly, a being popped out of Sonic, astounding the both of them. "Greetings, my name is Celestriad. A pleasure to have met you, though under bad circumstances, Visandre." said the being. It's body was a triangle-shaped blue armor with a blue wolf-like head, the rest of it was a green-flame. Sonic noticed that he assumed the same form he did when the meteor struck him. "Wait...you were that meteor?" Sonic asked. "I see, so other worlds will be fighting in Ragnorak this time as well." Quikxorn said, touching Sonic. "Yes, but...oh no, they've arrived!" Celestriad yelled as four more meteors struck the ground, surprising Sonic and Quikxorn. These beings were bird-like scorpions known as Teretrians. "It is he, the Ferihgaj...Celestriad has inhabited the Ferihgaj..." said one of them. "The Ferihgaj? I could've sworn I was the Visandre..." Sonic asked Quikxorn. "There are different legends of you across the universe, so this title refers to you." he said as the beings pulled out lances. "You're coming with us, Celestriad!" said another of them. "Don't bet on it. Take this!" Sonic yelled as Celestriad's head formed on his right hand and unleashed a burst of energy.
That shot caused an explosion that sent those creatures flying. Celestriad and Quikxorn, to say the least, were impressed. "Not bad on the first go, Sonic." said Celestriad, who got a thumbs-up from Sonic. "Welcome to the fight, man." he said. "You mean, you plan to fight in Ragnorak?" Quikxorn asked Sonic, who smirked. "Well, I actually plan to fight in order to prevent it, but same difference." he said. "In order to do that, the 13 symbols of Ragnorak must be destroyed before the day of death arrives." Quikxorn said. "Alright then, let's go fight in Ragnorak!" Sonic yelled, rising his fist into the air. "A little too excited to go to war, now aren't we?" Quikxorn said, calming the hedgehog down. "By the way, when does Ragnorak actually begin?" Sonic asked. "We have twenty-five days until Ragnorak..." Quikxorn said, a sullen face appearing on Sonic's face. "...Shit..." Sonic cursed.
The Higher Plain
- Tuesday evening 9:15 PM
Back up above, countless warriors assembled from the heavens before Quikxorn. "Celestial warriors with a long-blood pact with Odin! The time has come once again to pick up arms and do battle with other worlds! Yes, the fabled Ragnorak is not so fabled! The Visandre will assist us in this battle, all of them! No longer will we be simple judges, but we must be warriors ourselves!" Quikxorn concluded, recieving many praise amongst the crowd. After the announcement, Yredrala met with Quikxorn. "Quikxorn, you really seek to battle in Ragnorak again?" she asked. "I've no choice, my darling. If given the chance, I would stay by your side, but I cannot sit idly this time." he said, placing his hands on her shoulders. "But, the last time...you lost your..." she said, being cut off by Quikxorn. "I know, it was a heavy loss, but I won't be lost to you. Trust in me, the same the mortals trust in their beloveds." he said, embracing her as she held tightly, tears coming from her eyes. He walked off to amass his power before stepping back into the mortal realm, never looking back...
Mystic Ruins: Tails' Workshop
- Wednesday morning 10:30 AM
- 24 days until Ragnorak
Sonic and Jizalia broght Asienta over with them to Tails' Workshop to discuss the issues. Asienta simply sat with Lavender, the both of them seemingly interested in the whole ordeal of Ragnorak. "So, I gotta fight in this universal war? Man, just had a kid and now this..." Tails said, shaking his head with heavy thought. "Yeah, I know how you feel, but we haven't a choice. In twenty-four days, we won't have a world for our children to grow in, so..." Sonic said, recieving a smile from Tails. "Of course I'm with you all the way, I'm a Visandre as much as you are. Plus, Shadow and Silver will surely help us. Cream, can you come here please!?" Tails called out to Cream, who appeared shortly afterwards. "Tails...you're going to fight again?" she asked, struck with grief. "I know you don't like the fighting, Cream...I'm really sorry, but I've got to fight for you...for Lavender...for everyone!" he said, creating a smile on Cream's face. "Mr. Sonic...could I fight too?" she asked, surprising them all. "Please, Cream, just Sonic...and I don't mind. How about you, Tails?" "No, not at all. Shadow and Silver, you in!?" The two hedgehogs came down, Shadow with his weapon drawn and Silver striding calmly. "Yeah, so what's the occasion?" Shadow asked. "Is this the same as usual?" Silver asked. "Well, only if you consider saving the universe from an ancient war sounds typical." Sonic said, recieving looks of anxiousness from the other hedgehogs. "Well, for starters, we should look into these symbols that Quikxorn talked about. There some energy readings that could be the symbols. One is in Crystaledge Lake and the other was sensed in the Valley of Blades. Sonic and Jizalia should get the one at the lake and Shadow, Silver and I will go for the Valley of Blades." Tails relayed the plan to the others. "I'll take care of Lavender, Tails. Please be careful..." Cream asked, receiving a kiss from Tails. "Don't worry, I'll be fine." he reassured her. "Sonic, what will we do about Asienta?" Jizalia asked, with Sonic thinking for a second before coming up with an idea. "I know who can watch her. Come on, Asienta." he grabbed Asienta and ran off.
Station Square: Amy's Apartment
- Wednesday morning 10:32 AM
Sonic ran up to Amy's apartment within short order. "Hello? Sonic, it's you!" Amy said, recieving a loving embrace from Sonic. "Good to see you again too, Amy. Oh, this is my daughter, Asienta the Hedgehog." "Oh my god, she's so cute! Hello there, Asienta!" Asienta bowed politely to Amy, who held her so gently. "Perfect, I found the right person. I need you to look after Asienta for a while for me, Amy. Could you do that?" "Oh course, Sonic. It's no trouble at all." "Thanks a lot. Now be a good girl for mommy and daddy, okay?" "Okay." Asienta said, being one of her first words. Sonic dashed off to meet with Tails and Jizalia at the Mystic Ruins harbor.
Mystic Ruins: Harbor
- Wednesday morning 10:45 AM
"Okay, this should help you out, Sonic. I present the Blue Wave." Tails unveiled a pretty cool-looking boat, with jet engines attached and small wings on the sides for aerial mobility. "Nice! Well, let's be off. This feels like a spy movie." Sonic said as they boarded. "Then I'm the leading lady." Jizalia said, making Sonic totally fired up. "Perfect leading lady. Well, let's get this show on the road." he said, putting in the key and turning on the boat. Tails waved them good luck before heading off to his own destination by means of his plane. Shadow and Silver boarded and they were off, recieving good luck from Cream as she waved.
Crystaledge Lake
- Wednesday afternoon 2:15 PM
Sonic and Jizalia arrived in a few hours at Crystaledge Lake. A beautiful sight with multi-colored crystals brimming from the edge of the lake, hence the name. The blue mountaintops and clear sky make for a once-in-a-lifetime experience of being here. They were positioned off the shore and lowered anchor. "So much water..." Sonic said nervously as he looked over yonder. To get ready for the dive, Sonic relieved himself of his clothes to be in his normal nude self. "Damn, I can't believe I'm getting in the water..." he said as he stared into the water. "Don't be so concerned. I'll be ready to give you a hand if you feel like you're drowning or something." Jizalia said, appearing from below after changing. On a side note, she had gone shopping on various occasions with the girls so that she wouldn't be running around naked in public. Her swimsuit was a two piece, the bottom piece held together by two pairs of gold rings on her hips. The top piece was basically small diamond-shaped patches for the tips of her breasts. Sonic was in awe by the sight of her. "Wow...I'm speechless here, Jizalia. All I can say is...you look excellente." he said with a roll on the tongue, making Jizalia giggle a little. "Hee-hee, thank you ma cherie." she said, standing next to him looking over the boat. "This is a wonderful place, isn't it?" Sonic asked Jizalia, who stared into his eyes. "It certainly is, ideal for a vacation once this matter is over." she said to him, holding his hand as he held her's.
"I'll be sure to bring us all here when the peace returns. We can all come back. Of course, who says we can't have fun while we look for the symbol, huh?" Sonic said, winking at Jizalia. "Ahh, behave hedgehog. Hee hee, you're right with that." she said, circling her finger on his chest. They jumped in and before long, Sonic had adjusted. "Whew, okay I'm okay. Hmm...I don't feel anything at all, no energy signatures or things like that." he said, now going under the water. Jizalia confirmed the same thing as she swam, looking for anything out of the ordinary. After roughly twenty minutes, they found nothing and began a game of undersea tag. That lasted for a while within tag rules until they decided to mix it up, using more speed. Eventually they returned to the surface, Jizalia being victorious. "So what do you want as your prize?" Sonic asked slyly. She pulled him close to her, their eyes meeting. "Just your lips will be fine." she said. "Well, I guess I'm a winner as well." he said before their lips locked in a frenzy of kissing in the water. Meanwhile, a meteor crashes into the lake and from it rises a figure that looks like a gigantic great white shark, except it's purple and bears dark angel wings. "I say, is it really here where the symbol of Auqius lies in slumber?" says the beast, clearly a gentleman. His subordinates were about the size of a car, yet they were goldfish. "Master Craws, we've not sensed anything. Can we attack something, please!?" one of them said. "What are we, savages!? We search only for the symbol and nothing more! If any get in our way, they must have a reason. If not, then you kill them. Simple as that." Craws said as he circled the sea. Suddenly, he stops and the others think he will attack something. Turns out he pulls out reading glasses and a book entitled "Civilized Thought From The Savage".
Suddenly, Sonic felt something to the west of their current position. "Huh? Could it be a symbol of Ragnorak?" Sonic said, stopping his kisses to look over the way. On the surface was a huge insignia of a water drop with a curved blade. "Jizalia...it's here." "Awesome. Let's get it." they both were swimming at top speed towards the symbol until an eruption of water came between them and their objective. "What the hell?!" Sonic yelled, stopping immediately. Craws appeared before them, with his minions. "Well, you must be the young warrior who seeks to stop Ragnorak. My name is Master Craws, who are you?" he said, outstretching a fin. "Umm...well, I'm Sonic the Hedgehog and this is Jizalia the Hedgehog." he said, relunctantly shaking his fin. "How do you do?" she said, doing the same. "So, you seek the symbol as well. How shall we do this, old chap?" he said, taking out a pipe to smoke from. "Uhh...I would assume that you would fight me..." Sonic said, scratching his head. "The question is do you want to fight me, Sonic? Or do you just seek to stop Ragnorak, like us?" Craws said, making Sonic think. "Okay, this is confusing. I was under the impression that you guys wanted to start Rganorak and take our world..." Sonic said. "Well, when you put it that way, I wasn't intending to do anything with this world. My superiors, however, are another story..." he said, putting away his pipe. "Master Craws, let's get this over with!" said a minion, who cut his arms and spread his blood in the water. Suddenly, Craws' eyes went deathly black as he smelled the blood. "Shit...Jizalia, he's going to attack now! I'll take him on!" Sonic said, assuming his Celestriad form and jumping out of Craws' path. "Okay, I'll get these guys then!" Jizalia responded, unleashing her giant sword Nyvorenge. "This should be fun!" the minions shouted as they dived under the water where Jizalia was ready to fight them.
Valley of Blades
- Wednesday afternoon 2:00 PM
Tails had arrived in the Valley of Blades, a vast valley where an instance of warfare was halted by means of a large fiery explosion. Charred skeletons and burned swords littered the charred land where they walked on. "So, a symbol is somewhere around here?" Shadow asked, holding his Trendortsu. "Yeah, it's gotta be here. The energy is all over the place." Tails said, pulling out his bow staff. "Hmm...should be that way, within the center of the battlefield." Silver said as they walked to the area he specified. From above, a red meteor flew down from the sky, crashing before them and exposing a giant red fiery bear. "Fools! Let fear consume your souls, for I am the great Brianx, master of the Flames of Hell!" said the bear, who wore only large pants and spiked boots. "Huh? Where'd you come from?" Tails said. "I think he came from space." Shadow said, placing his sword over his shoulder. "So...he's an alien?" Silver said boredly. "I am not an alien! I am Brianx, duke of flames, king of fire, lord of all you see...before you." he said, feeling slightly ashamed about the area. "So that's it? You used all your power to create an explosion all those years ago?" Tails asked. "How dare you! I still have plenty of power!" Brianx announced. "Well, shall we get started?" Shadow said, preparing to swing his sword. "Yeah, I'm tired of this guy." Silver said, using his power to lift a large-pointed rock. "Ahh, you're all Visandre!! This should be fun!" Brianx said, getting ready. Suddenly, a figure kicked into Brianx's face, sending the big lug flying into the mountainside and surprising Tails, Shadow and Silver. "SONIC! I'm gonna kick your...huh? Oh hey Tails! Shadow, what's up!? Hey there, Silver! Nice to see you guys!" Knuckles said, walking off of Brianx's body. "Knuckles? Where the hell did you...oh never mind, great to see you again." Tails said, shaking his hands, as did Shadow and Silver. "So, who's the joker there?" Knuckles asked. "Wait for it..." Shadow responded, pointing to the giant bear. "I AM BRIANX, THE GREATEST FLAME CREATURE EVER BORN!!" he yelled at the top of his lungs. "Oh...well, let's kick his ass." Knuckles said, cracking his knuckles. "Be warned, Knuckles. He scorched this entire area." Tails said, spinning his staff. "Cool, a worthy opponent. Well, here goes!" Knuckles said, leading them into battle.
Brianx smashed his fists into the ground, unleashing a large shockwave of red energy at them. Tails pole-vaulted over the energy and kick Brianx in the face, the same spot that Knuckles just kicked. As he came down, Shadow dashed underneath him and slashed across his back, holding him with the sword itself. "Going UP!!??" Shadow said, launching Brianx up into the air as Silver prepared his attack. "Let's see you handle this." Silver said, with five glowing spiky rocks, launching them at Brianx. They pierced his chest and legs as his body fell, yet he landed on his feet. "Heh heh...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! You really are fools!! FLARE CRUSHER!!" Brianx yelled, his feet smashing the ground repeatedly and unleashing comets of fire. The resulting explosions covered the battleground, covering Tails, Shadow, Silver and Knuckles. The result was some very burned heroes. "Damn...he's better than I thought..." Tails said, clutching his shoulder. "Yeah, even I have to give him some praise..." Shadow said, holding himself with his sword. "Grr...however..." Silver said, getting up slowly. "We ain't done yet..." Knuckles said. They all charged forward to Brianx's surprise, exactly what they wanted. Tails smacked against his body, creating a high frequency of vibrations and Shadow rised high into the air. Silver pummeled a spot on the other side of his body with a boulder as Knuckles dug underneath him. Shadow came back down and cleaved straight through him as Knuckles rose up from below, his fists going through his body as well. Shadow's sword and Knuckles' fists met in the center of Brianx's body, creating a finishing shockwave that split Brianx in half.
"Blast it all...I, the great and powerful Brianx...defeated by the likes of Visandre...but it's not over yet...my comrades will make it happen!! WE WILL HAVE RAGNORAK!!!" he yelled before he exploded, the pillar of fire he left behind towering into the sky. "Whew, hope there are more of those guys around." Knuckles said, dusting himself off. "Probably. Now to find the symbol." Tails said, looking and finding the symbol in the ground. The symbol of fire, Fliera, expanded in a circle with a fireball design in the center. Knuckles slammed his fist into the smybol, shattering it. "Yes! One down, a lot more to go..." Tails said. "Well, we better head back." Shadow said. "Yeah, thanks Knuckles." Silver said. "If you see Sonic, tell him I want his ass." Knuckles said, gliding off. The Tornado took off as well, heading back to the Mystic Ruins.
Crystaledge Lake
Wednesday afternoon 2:45 PM
Sonic repeatedly punched Craws' jaws, since he had a grip on Sonic's body. "Damn it! Let go already!!" Sonic said, blasting the jaws open with an energy shot. Craws released Sonic and circled in the water. "Shit...I need to pull out my sword...Huh?" Sonic said as Craws moved closer. He kicked Craws in the jaws and punched him downwards as he swam out and into the air. He then drew the giant sword from his hidden wings, the Sword of the Merciful Wings. "Heh, still got this thing. Make it smaller and..." he thought as the sword became the size of a katana. He fell back into the water, ready as Craws swam underneath him. "Damn, he really went over the edge...Gotta take him down." Sonic thought as he kicked at Craws' body and slashed across his chest, causing the shark to body slam Sonic enough for air to escape his mouth. "GAH...damn that hurt...gotta be careful about spreading blood...seems to irritate him." Sonic thought as he rose up to breathe.
Deeper beneath the water, Jizalia had slain one of the three minions and moved towards the other two. "Come on, boys. Surely you have more game than that." she said, a smirk on her face. "Oh yeah!? Let's see you take this! AQUA CYCPHEN!!" one of them shouted, spinning his fins feverishly and creating watery sonic booms. They sped past Jizalia, slightly cutting at her body. "Guh...man, they do have some fight...but not enough." she thought, shaking off the pain and lunging at one, cleaving it in half and staring at the last one. "Heh, watch this, little girl!" shouted the last one, who absorbed the remains of his fallen comrades and grew longer fins and fangs out of his mouth. "Heh, this should be more interesting." she thought as she clashed blades with the minion. Their swords clashed until he swam back and unleashed a large sonic boom, pushing Jizalia back a bit. "You asked for it. Hellish Lancion..." she said, her sword glowly menacingly as she held the point towards the minion. A long lance of darkness entended and pierced his heart, killing him right there. "Master Craws...!!!" he shouted as he exploded. "Now to help out Sonic..." she said, swimming in his general direction.
Sonic had cleaved off Craws' fins yet he still slammed into Sonic, making him go up to breathe repeatedly. "Shit, I'm getting nowhere...I gotta kill him now." he said, swimming back under and swimming straight at Craws, sword-drawn. Craws swam at Sonic, his jaws ready to devour Sonic right there. Jizalia appeared and swam with Sonic, her sword ready with his sword. "Here we go, Jizalia!" he said. "Yes, let us finish this!" she said. Their swords became one blade as they neared Craws. "UNISON CLEAVEN!!" they both shouted as they split Craws in half, both halves exploding. They swam back to the surface and struck the symbol, their mission accomplished. "Excellent. Now let's head home." Sonic said, helping her into the boat. "Yeah, we've only gotten started. Tails and the others should be back as well." Jizalia responded, placing a towel on herself and Sonic as he started the boat.
- Sorry it took so long but here's chap 2. Next one has a weird occurance with Asienta and some other stuff.
