The Sonic Chronicles

Chapter III- Book I

Tails' Point of View

It hadn't been long before we had gotten back to my house and Sonic and I were frantically searching the house to see if there was anything on this so call crystal the Eggman had. Judging from Eggman's usual antics it wouldn't be too much of a problem but I wasn't going to rule it out just yet.

We searched…well I mainly because Sonic was eating a chilidog that he so happened to have found while raiding my refrigerator. So far, there wasn't anything relating to this crystal thing but then again we had no idea what it was called so we really had no way of knowing what we were looking for. I was ready to give in when Sonic said.

"Hey what's this?"

He pulled out book titled Mobius' Greatest Myths and Legends.

"Eureka!" I cried "This is what we should have used the whole time! Where did you find it?"

He pointed to under my desk. It must have been one of those nights when I just read something and didn't care. I searched through to book and found something that read.

Magical crystal that holds great power. Those who come in contact with item are advised to handle with caution and do not at all costs drop this for many things have been predicted to happen. The main one is that a force will be unleashed that will tear the world apart with nature itself until nothing is left…

Oh … my god. Eggman must have picked his cards just right because he lucked out and picked the one that would give him what he wanted. World domination and even then it would backfire because there wouldn't BE a world left to rule. I frantically searched for Sonic who was on the floor sleeping.

"Sonic wake up! Bad news! Get UP! ASAP!"

He drearily lifted one eyelid. Shoved the book in his face.

"Eggman has us under his thumb with this one"

He took the book and skimmed through it and handed it back to me.

"It doesn't seem that bad, plus it was a prediction remember?"

"Sonic this could end our world as we know it and you act like it's an anthill that we can just step on and the problem would be solved!"

He got up and stretched. "What else does it say?" He asked. I read on.

Only one man has come in contact with this crystal and survived. His named was Dr. Jonathan Copper and is said that he lives far from society, where he slowly losses his sanity from touching the crystal.

I closed the book and began to feel dizzy. This wasn't good, if this Cooper guy wasn't dead already then he might be so insane that we can't learn anything. Maybe if get there in time it won't be too late. I kept reading.

It is said he lives in a remote part south of Station Square named Willshire Hills

I scurried to the computer and typed it in. One location popped up. It said roughly twenty miles from here and with the Tornado it would only take maybe five minutes.

"Come on Sonic, we have to go now" I said

"But where to? You just started reading the book then you rushed over the computer and started typing a few things in"

I dragged Sonic over to the computer. He looked at the computer.

"A mental asylum? Why would you…?" He picked up the book. His eyes widened.

"You're not serious right now are you?" I nodded grimly

"He is the only one who has encountered this thing and lived. He might be our only chance in finding out what it is" I explained

Sonic sighed and scratched his head.

"Alright let's go then but I can tell this won't end well" He sighed

…

Getting to Willshire Hills took longer than I had planned. Well that might have been because Sonic got hungry along the way. When we finally got there it was late in the afternoon. We got out to see a small house with many people coming and going which was kind of surprising for a mental asylum. When Sonic and I went inside, there were nurses hustling around with patients. Fake plastic palm trees placed in the corners and some people playing chess on the table. Sonic pointed to the reception desk and we walked over. A young female, lynx typed frivolously at a computer.

"Excuse me ma'am…" She held up her hand and pointed to a clipboard

"Sign your name and the time you came and then I'll answer"

Sonic and I signed our names and then she looked up.

"Now, what can I do for you boys?" She sighed

"We need to see a man named John Copper. He should be here?" said Sonic

She shook her head. "You boys can't see him unless you have time to come back tomorrow…"

"We really need to see him. Please ma'am! This is urgent!" I begged

She checked her watch and gave me an unpleasant look. She went back to typing and said

"You boys have ten minutes and then you have to leave and my name is Judy FYI"

Then she gave us a card that showed how long we could stay and the room number.

"Thank you Miss Judy" Sonic said

Judy rolled her eyes. "Don't thank me just go"

…

When we got to the room, a man sat in a chair with a straw hat pulled down over his face. He wore a patient's gown as well which made the hat look out of place. On his lap was a small banjo that he strummed aimlessly.

"Um…sir…sir?" Sonic spoke. The man sat there unresponsive and continued. "Tails, he isn't talking let's go…"

I walked towards him. He was ignoring us I was sure of.

"Mr. Copper, I'm Miles Power and this is my friend Sonic. We came to ask questions about this crystal…"

I showed him a picture and he stopped strumming. Then he did something that I hadn't expected. He grabbed my neck and thrusted me against the wall.

"I told you government scum I was done answering your questions and It was bad enough that some other fathead came in here!"

"Dude, we aren't from the government!" Sonic yelled "Now put my friend down! NOW!"

Mr. Copper put me down and buried his face in his hand. He mumbled something about not hurting anyone. I however was still trying to gain my breath back. This man had an iron grip.

"Sir, you said someone else came in asking you questions. Do remember his name or what he looked like?" I asked

"I don' remember his name, but he was all chubby lookin' and had this weird mustache"

Sonic and I nodded as both shared the same thoughts. Eggman had been through before us.

"And what about the crystal? Can you tell us about that?"

He nodded solemnly.

"This crystal, it isn't like some power cell. No Sir, it is an imprisonment for a man who lived long ago. He went by Master Erezium and he was a kinetic who had control over all elements. His wife died and he went on a rampage vowing that he would destroy the world which he almost did, until a mystic who is long dead, imprisoned him. This Erezium fellow still just waits in that crystal for the next fool to unleash him."

It was all adding up now. What the book said and what Mr. Copper just told us. Eggman wanted to unleash this Master Erezium and cause total havoc. Mr. Copper must have read my mind.

"Oh that's right son, and if that man who came in earlier can reverse the imprisonment, it's total doomsday for Mobius. Unless you have some other legendary power source that you could somehow use against him…"

"We might…"

I whispered in his ear and his eyes widened.

"You're not serious boy! No one can control the chaos emeralds"

I pointed to Sonic and He nodded. Mr. Copper looked amazed. Then he reached into his pocket and pulled out a yellow chaos emerald.

"I found it outside, I hope you've already found the others because there is no telling how long that man will take to find out the reversion process"

Knowing Eggman, it wouldn't take long…

Things are looking Grimm for Sonic and Tails and it seems that the fate of the world rests in their hands again but this time there might not be the happy ending that everyone looks so forward to. Can Sonic and Tails pull it off or will their luck finally run out? Find out in Two Mind Don't Think Alike !
