/ Annabel's life story. :P There isn't much I can say about it. Annabel, Blade, Mellisia, King Darius, Queen Melodie, Nightfall, Jason, Sephia, Dan, Sera, and Caty are mine. Others belong to SEGA. Enjoy! /

"Originally, I was supposed to be a weapon used to fight off my brother Hatred and his army. My step-parents, King Darius and Queen Melodie, were friends with my creators and they were struggling keeping my brother away from the kingdom. My "parents" weren't the same species. My so-called 'father' was a human and my so-called 'mother' was a mobian. They decided to create me with their DNA and, hopefully, I would inherit their powers, combined with their most powerful keepsake. The royal crystal, or Aphrodonitum, was used as my life source and where my powers were going to be formed. For two years, they cared for me and helped me develop. I was never allowed outside because they were afraid that someone would get a hold of me and use me against the royal family.

"One day, when I was learning how to talk, grab things, and walk, a group of soldiers burst through the front door and separated me from my creators. I had no idea what was going on until a woman named Sephia came in and kneeled to me. She told me that her men were setting up a game for me to play. She, then, handed me a gun and told me to shoot the people in front of me. I was never taught anything about weapons or death, so I thought it wouldn't matter. I looked at my creators, who looked scared, and then pulled the trigger on my "father", Dan. Then to my "mother", Sera.

"When they both fell to the ground, I looked to Sephia and asked what happened to them. She only answered that I did their job for them. Then, they took me away and left me in the woods to die alone. I didn't know what else to do, so I wandered around, scared and helpless. After a few hours, a boy found me. He was a dark green hedgehog with dark gray eyes and messy quills. He asked me what my name was and I replied that I didn't have one. I asked him for his name and he said that his name was Blade."

Saying the name, Annabel felt tears sting her eyes. She didn't want to continue and be reminded of all the death she caused, but she wanted someone else to know. So far, Shadow didn't seem to react at all. He had a blank look on his face, but she could see the gears turning in his head, contemplating what she was saying. The hedgehog girl decides to continue, despite all of her doubts nagging at her.

"Blade, then, held my hand and lead me to a large castle. He explained that his parents were King Darius and Queen Melodie and that they would take care of me. After I was introduced to them and a couple of their maids and butlers, their daughter, Nightfall, started harassing me. She said that I didn't look like them and that I should have been left outside. Blade always stood up for me whenever no one was around and I was always with him. No matter what. I just turned three and he gave me a gold locket necklace with jewels embedded in the locket. He told be that it didn't matter where I was or how far away we were; as long as I had the necklace, he would always remain by my side spiritually.

"After a while, Blade and I decided to play hide-and-seek in the woods. Back then, the king and queen warned us that there was a major war going on outside and ordered us never to leave castle grounds. We listened to them, but somehow, someone snuck in and shot Blade in the neck with a poison dart. As he fell to the ground, I screamed bloody murder and ran to him, tears streaming down my face. Blade told me that everything was going to be okay and that he was going someplace better. He was only five when he died. I held him close to me until two guards pulled me off of him and into a large capsule. I banged on the glass, screaming and begging to let me out until this gas filled the inside and I fell into a deep sleep.

"I don't recall how long I was asleep, but I woke up in an oversized bed. Not knowing where I was, I got up to look around, but was forced down by a young woman with brown hair and dark green eyes. She said her name was Mellisia and that she and Jason, her then-husband, were going to take good care of me. I looked about fifteen years of age when my guardians started bickering uncontrollably.

"As they bickered more and more, I felt as if they were ignoring me. So I tried harder and harder to get their attention. I've tried everything, Shadow. I've went through high school and college. I even got a job at the hospital, hoping Mellisia and Jason would say something. Anything. But they never did. Soon, I started thinking that I just wasn't that important to them. That's how come I was so willing to risk my life for my friends. That's why I'm so willing to help you guys when you're fighting Eggman and Mephiles. I just want to be noticed and useful to someone."

/ And that's Annabel's life story. So, to clear things up, when Annabel was transported to Earth, she basically morphed into a human girl. I'm thinking or writing another fanfic for when she first meets Sonic and the others to make things more understandable. :P Sorry it took so long to upload. I was busy with some stuff. /
