Project RAVEN

Chapter 5: In an Unfamiliar World

Meanwhile...the young girl hedgehog with black and red markings fire skated in the woods, feeling cautious and confused about her surroundings. When she made it to the end, she stopped and gasped at the city in front of her.

"What is this place?" Raven asked herself looking at the view, she kept gawking at it until something suddenly gave her a migraine and she held her head in her hands as she had a sudden flashback. She saw a familiar blonde haired girl with another black and red hedgehog, only it was a boy hedgehog in an escape pod. Some soldiers came in and as soon as the girl pulled the lever, a soldier shot her and the whole scene went blank, the only thing she heard was the boy hedgehog shouting "Maria!"

Raven shook her head clear from that gruesome imagIe, she didn't know why but it was somehow linked to her.

"Whatever's going on..." she announced as she held the Chaos Emeralds in her hands. "I have to find that other hedgehog...he must know who I am..."

With that said, Raven skated to the city, careful not to draw attention to herself since she had a deep feeling that she was being hunted down. The female black and red hedgehog kept close to alleyways and dark looking areas to avoid being spotted as she looked around the city, thinking everything looks strange and new to her; humans, skyscrapers, the sky, everything.

"I have to lie low until I get some answers as to who I am and why I'm here." Raven thought to herself as she looked at everyone passing by and saw a few Mobians around, making her less worried she might be the only one on the planet. While she was walking, a blue wind suddenly went pass her, taking her by surprise.

"What the hell was that?" Raven thought to herself as she saw the blue blur ran straight ahead, something in her mind told her to follow it and she was about to do that when the blue blur came back and stood next to her and took the form of a blue male hedgehog with emerald green eyes and was wearing red and white sneakers and gloves.

"Hey there." he greeted her in a really cocky manner.

"Hi." Raven greeted back in a somewhat bored monotone. Sure, she was a little happy that she was talking to someone but another thing is she's not too sure she likes talking to him at all, but anyway, she's got her guard on in case the blue hedgehog can't be trusted.

"Name's Sonic." the blue hedgehog introduced himself, giving her a thumbs up and a cheeky wink.

"Raven." she introduced herself with her half closed eyes and cold sounding voice. Sonic looked closely at the ebony and crimson streaked hedgehog, up and down. She strangely looked like his frienemy, Shadow; the quills, the colour, the markings, the air shoes, the bracelets and even the bit of chest fur that was revealed from her shirt. It could just be him or a really freaky coincident.

"I've never seen you before." Sonic observed looking at the female hedgehog, who now has her eyes half closed and arms crossed.

"I'm new around here." Raven explained still acting a little cold to Sonic. Sonic was really convinced now that she and Shadow are related, the question is, how is it possible that Shadow has a sister.

"Mind if I show you around?" Sonic offered her, wanting to help her out but want some answers as to how she and Shadow are one in the same.

"I guess..." Raven said shrugging her shoulders and activated her air shoes, ready to move.

"Great, think you can keep up with me?" Sonic challenged her.

"Is that a challenge?" Raven slightly smirking at his challenge. "You definitely don't wanna mess with me."

"Bring it on!' Sonic smirked and does the "bring it" gesture.
