In the last chapter we left off with Sonic looking at a note that was stuck behind a picture of his parents.

In this chapter Sonic starts to discover the truth about his parents.

Hope you like it.

Chapter 3 - Discovering the truth

To our beloved Sonic Hedgehog,

We want you to know that both I and your father are with you at all times.
Ever wondered where your gloves came from? They came from us, the right one is your fathers and your left one is mine, we gave these to you so you have to remember us by. Your abilities will also be from us, if you have speed you will get that from your father and if you have knowledge that'll be from me.

We know you're going to grow up to be a great hedgehog, we hope you make the most of your skills and make use proud.

Signed Aleena Hedgehog & Shock Hedgehog.

At the bottom of the note was another picture, it was of Aleena and Shock next to each other holding Sonic in their arms.

Sonic started to get a tear in his eye.

He took off his gloves and turned them inside out, the right one said Shock and the left said Aleena.

Sonic sighed and wiped his eye.

"Sonic" called Amy from the kitchen "Is that you?"

She looked in the front room where Sonic was a few seconds ago.

"Hmm, could of sworn he was here" She said.

Sonic was heading to where he was raised.

He shortly arrived at a small house on the outskirts of the city, it was owned by a fox named Fern. She found Sonic floating down the river in a basket; she looked after him and raised him.

Sonic knocked on the door.

"Ah Sonic what a nice surprise to see you" said Fern "Come in"

Sonic walked in and sat down on a chair in the front room.

"So what can I do for you?" She asked.

"I want to know about my parents, what happened to them? Did they leave me?" Questioned Sonic

"I knew this day would come" Fern sighed.

"Your parents were shot by one of Egg mans robots" She continued "it was on the news when you were a just a baby I found you floating in a basket down the river"

"So why did you say they left me? Why did you lie to me?" Sonic Sniffled.

"Because I knew you wouldn't be able to take it" She Finished.

She was right Sonic couldn't take it, he ran straight out of the house to the edge river where he sat looking at the picture of him and his parents.

He couldn't believe that this had been kept secret from him for so long, he lent over the river and looked at his reflection, he then saw a reflection of his mum with her hand on his left shoulder, Sonic thought that he was just day dreaming so he placed his hand on his left shoulder but he felt some ones hand, he quickly span around to see who it was but no one was there.

Sonic looked around and noticed somebody running off so he ran after them. He chased them through the city where it was crowded so it was hard for him to follow. He saw them dart down an alley which led to a dead end.

"No more running now" Sonic whispered to himself.

Sonic got to the alley and saw no one was there; he rubbed his head in confusion wondering where the person went a roof tile came down and almost hit Sonic he looked up and saw the person on the roof.

"Hmm whoever it is has good knowledge of the city" Sonic said to himself.

But Sonic knew where to head them off, he ran down the street where the rows of building ended, he knew that the person he was chasing had nowhere else to run. He looked up and saw the person jump off the building so he launched himself up to catch them; he then put them to the ground.

"Who are you?" Sonic demanded.

The person didn't answer.

"Fine then let's find out" Sonic said.

He grabbed hold of the hood covering the persons face and pulled it so he could see who it is.

"Oh my god!" Sonic shouted.

I wonder who it could be, only one way to find out and that's by reading the next chapter which will be up soon :)
