I'm always going to have something to say, aren't I? As soon as I check the story to make sure it all uploaded properly, the entire story is in the wrong format, entire sections are missing, and quotations and spacing are gone. All I did to fix these issues was repasting the story, cuz I don't have any actual typing software, so I make due with Google Drive, but still. Fanfiction doesn't like me. It's fixed now, so enjoy!


Song: Soleanna Forest

A mobian with a blue body, orange head, and brown tail was walking through a forest near station square. He had a yellow eyes. He wore a red shirt, blue pants, and green shoes. He looked down as he walked. He had no destination in mind. He just walked.

He came into a clearing, and he saw 2 children. An apricot bunny, and a brown raccoon. The bunny wore an orange dress while the raccoon wore a green shirt and black shorts. The older would've ignored them, but they already noticed him and were walking towards him.

"Hey mister, have you seen any chao?" The older mobian answered in the negative.

"Oy mate! I've never seen you around here. Ya got a name?" The raccoon asked with a strong accent.

The older mobian had not planned on running into anyone on this trip, let alone give his name. But he figured 'why not?' "My name is Samuel. What about the two of you?"

"My name's Marine, and this sheila is Cream."

"Nice to meet you." Cream did a curtsy.

Sam studied their appearance. They looked so… innocent. The only people Sam had ever met who looked even remotely innocent were Big and Ray, but Sam thought Big just lived in the forests too long and Ray was still young.

That's it. These two are young, probably younger than Ray. 'Young people are influenced by what happens around them. Maybe… maybe I can keep these two girls innocent. I need Ray to help me with my goals, so it's too late for him and Big, but I can make sure they stay on my side.'

"You two should go find your parents."

Cream giggled. "We're here with friends. But maybe they're looking for us."

"Then let's get going! Later mate!" The two of them ran off, and Sam headed for town. It was there that he ran into 3 kids, not much younger than he is, at about 14 years each.

Sam thought 'those twins look like a guy I know, but I can't place it.' He walked passed them, then he took a second look at the twins. They had brown hair and blue eyes. One was wearing a red, yellow, and white shirt and blue pants, and the wore a red jacket with yellow buttons and black pants. The girl was a blonde who also had blue eyes, and she wore a blue dress. They were talking about some hedgehog.

"... I say he was a weirdo and you should stay away from him." One of the boys said.

"But he looked so sweet and innocent."

"Innocence is something that I've rarely found in this world." Sam butt into their conversation. "If you found someone who is innocent, don't let them lose it." The girl looked amazed at Sam's words.

"That sounded so beautiful."

But the boy in the red jacket scoffed. Sam turned to him. "Ya know… Something about you seems familiar to me. Have we met?"

"I don't think we have. No one could ever forget Ivo Robotnik!" When Samuel heard these words, he started to chuckle. "What's so funny, mobian?" Then Sam had a laughing fit.

"HA! HA! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! YOU! IVO! HA! HA! Nice joke. Now really. Who are you?"

"I just told you. Is my name that funny?" Ivo seemed embarrassed. And Sam was no longer amused.

"This joke bores me. There is no way you are Ivo Robotnik. Your 14 and thin. Ivo is an over 50 year old, narcissistic, fat man, who has an obsession with building an empire."

"That sounds like the Eggman that Sonic once told me about." The other boy had drawn Samuels attention.

"You know that hedgehog?"

"Yeah. We hang out alot."

Sam got to thinking. "Surely that hedgehog knows that fat doctors real name." And he took off, leaving three confused teenagers.

Song: Frog Forest-Sonic Heroes

It was now evening, and Sam had met up with Ray, Big, and Cosmo. They were at a shack in the woods.

Sam was speaking to Cosmo. "Alright. We need you close by, but out of danger, so you'll be staying here. I expect this operation to be successful, so we'll have you reunited with your sister in no time."

Big was getting emotional. "We'll miss you once you're gone." Ray tried to comfort him.

"Don't worry, we'll surely see her again someday. Bye Cosmo."

Cosmo was excited to see her sister again, but sad to be leaving her friends. Well, if they get whatever they're looking for. "See you later." She entered the shack, and Samuels group left to meet up with the Chaotix.

"Well, well, well. Look who's here." Vector said. He and the rest of the chaotix all wore blue suits that they each customized to make their own. Vector simply wore his headphones, Charmy had a blue jacket, like his orange one, Sonic wore red Soap shoes with his, and Tails had special pockets for his gear. Knuckle wore sunglasses, and Mighty just wore the standard suits.

"Yup! We're here. Now where's that ring?" Sam was wearing his cloak again, and Big and Ray wore their own too, only Big's was green, and Ray's was yellow.

Tails showed him the map of the very town Sam's been visiting these past few months. Sam put on a blank face, then a vein on his forehead popped.

"You… have… got… to be… KIDDING ME!" The Chaotix, Big, and Ray all covered their ears. "I've searched this place 20 times already! How the hell did I miss this!?"

"It's ok dude. Calm down." Sonic tried to calm him down.

Sam took a deep breath. "Alright. Where exactly is it?"

"It's in this mansion. On the far side of the town. Do you have a plan?" Vector asked.

Sam thought a moment. "What are your main roles on your team and what are your skills?"

Vector gave the rundown of their roles. "Charmy is the Tracker, normally sent out to find and retrieve important items. Mighty's our Investigator, he usually checks out a location before we decide our course of action. Tails is our Tech Specialist, Knuckles is the Brawn, and Sonic's the Operative."

And Tails gave their skills. "Sonic and Mighty are our runners, Vector and Knuckles are the power, and me and Charmy are good flyers. Knuckles can also warp a large distance with the help of his Master Emerald."

Sam got interested by this. "I have a gem like that. Look," He showed them his blue gem.

"Whoa! You've got a Chaos Emerald! They're mystical gems that the Master Emerald can control. They've got unlimited power." Knuckles explained. Sam thought some more.

"Alright. Knuckles will warp Tails and Vector, to the mansions roof to jam any tracking or defense systems they have up. Knuckles will warp back here, and when Tails and Vector give the signal, Knuckles will warp Sonic and Mighty into town, and you three will cause a distraction. Charmy will monitor the situation from the sky and warn anyone if any danger is coming. I will warp Xayr and Gibx into the mansion and we will find the ring. When I signal you all, that is when we will retreat."

"What signal?" Mighty asked. Sam responded by throwing everyone a watch made of aluminum, plastic, rubber, toothpicks, and wires.

"When you want to give the signal, connect the green wire to the yellow wire. Operation starts now. Go!"

Charmy took flight. Knuckles warped along with Tails and Vector, then warped back alone. It was nighttime. The group waited for a while. "Hey. How long have we been waiting?"

Sam answered Sonic's question with a chuckle. "These weren't designed to be like regular watches you know."

"What's so fu… Ow!" Knuckles was interrupted by a shock, and they all cried in surprise.

"That's our cue." Knuckles and the speedsters warped away, and Sam warped his group into the mansion.

Song: Mystic Mansion

"Wow. This is what the inside of a mansion looks like." Ray gawked.

"Alright. Xayr, fly ahead and scout the area. Gibx, start looking near anything heavy. I'll have a look around." They split up. Ray was flying down hallways and into different rooms, but found no one. Big was lifting couches, moving dressers, bookcases, and beds, bet he came up short. Sam was checking everything. He left no stone unturned. Then he found a room with red walls, and a queen sized bed. He felt a strange sensation coming from the dresser. He walked over and saw a dark glow.

"Hey guys! I think I've found it!" Big and Ray head over to Sam. He opened the dresser and took out a black ring with a small dark cloud around it. "Alright, now I'll send everyone the signal." Sam took the green wire and crossed it with the yellow wire. The three of them felt the shock, and they retreated from the house.

Once outside, they saw Sonic fighting a pink hedgehog, Vector fought the purple chameleon, Mighty was fighting a brown racoon, Knuckles was in combat with a white bat, Tails fought a white hedgehog, and Charmy was being chased by a chao.

"Xayr, go help Tails and Charmy. Gibx, help Knuckles and Vector. I'll help Sonic and Mighty." They moved in to help them, but Sam was stopped by the black hedgehog. "You!"

"I tire of chasing you around. I will kill you now. Maybe you and Satan can be friends."

Sam growled. "You'll be the one saying hi to Satan, vampire."

The Black Hedgehog

Song: Suitable Opponent

Sam charged at the hedgehog and brought out his staff. The hedgehog spin dashed out of the way and around Sam to hit him in the back. Sam got up and swung his staff at him. The Black Hedgehog ran towards a building and jumped on top of it. Sam followed and threw his staff at the hedgehog. He ducked and jumped, anticipating the staff coming back.

"You won't get me with the same trick you did last time." Sam ran to the hedgehog and was hit with a spin jump. "Just give up." Sam got up again and materialised a lightning bolt, which he shot at the hedgehog. It was a direct hit.

"Who should give up now?" Sam followed up the attack with a few punches to the hedgehogs gut, and a kick to his head. He was getting up when Sam swung his staff at his head. 'I just have to keep this up.' No sooner than he thought that did The Black Hedgehog get up and kick him in the gut.

"I guess I should get serious now." He got out a glowing green gem. "Chaos control!" He sped up on a massive scale and began to barrage Samuel with a near endless barrage of attacks. Sam was incredibly overwhelmed and only managed to dodge 3 of them.

'I can dodge them, but I have to be exact to not only avoid that attack, but also predict where the next 4 will come from.' Sam jumped into the air, then immediately stomped back to the ground, and dashed off the roof. That set of actions managed to throw the Black Hedgehog off and send him face first into the building. Sam had a few seconds to catch his breath and prepare his next attack. The hedgehog walked out of the building and swung his arm around.

"Chaos Spear!" He swung his hand forward and about 4 yellow energy beams shot towards Samuel. He dodged 3 of them, but one hit him in the stomach. "Your finished." He prepared one more Chaos spear. It was bigger than the previous 4. Sam instantly got up and prepared an attack that should block the attack if he's not fast enough to completely nullify it.

"MAELSTROM!"

"CHAOS LANCE!"

The Black Hedgehog was hit all over, and his Lance was mis aimed because of it. It hit Samuel's right hand and broke his staff into many pieces.

Boss defeated

Sam felt the staff break in his hands. "My staff." The black hedgehog was getting up, trying to recover from the pain.

"I didn't know you had that much power. But no matter. I can keep going dammit."

"My staff." The hedgehog looked at Sam when he repeated himself. And he soon said it for a third time. "My staff."

Sam felt something in his mind snap, but something else seemed to pull itself together. A reddish violet aura surrounded him. "MY STAFF!" Samuel blanked out, but could still feel his body moving.
