WOW! I'm so glad you all liked my story! It means a lot to me! The reason the first one was so short was because I wanted to make sure that it got some attention, and if it didn't get any at all I would have just stopped it. But I can very well see that it did! So here's chapter two! MUCH longer then the first one. By about five or six pages! Enjoy!

"So now that you all know my name… what about yours?" He asked, raising an eye brow.

They all looked at each other, "Well, like I said before… I'm Jeremy." He smiled nervously.

"Well… I'm odd! Odd Della Robbia! It's great to meet you… err… sonic." He scratched his head, it sounded weird coming from his mouth.

"I'm Ulrich Stern." He said. There's nothing else really to say, He thought.

"Hi!" she smiled, "I'm Yumi Ishiyama. It's a pleasure to meet you Mr. Hedgehog." She bowed.

"Please, call me sonic. I'm not one who likes all that formal stuff… Mr., Mrs. Why not call someone by their name? Am I right?" He said smiling. His eyes opened a bit wide when he saw the super computer. In the blink of an eye he appeared next to it, all of them gasped in surprise. "What's this doohickey?" he poked the monitor.

"H-Hey, Don't touch that!" Jeremy shouted, Sonic stepped back with his hands up.

"Sorry… this just looks like something tails would have up back in his workshop." He examined it, but then stood up, turning to the pink haired girl. "Heeyy… you never told me your name." He said with a smile, "don't worry, I don't bite." He held his hand out for her to shake.

Aelita, coming from lyoko, was a bit less trusting then everyone else and as much as she wanted to trust him, she refused to shake his hand. "I-I'm sorry… but how can everyone be so calm about this?" She asked them, "Look at it! It's walking, it's talking, and blue!"

Sonic looked at his feet and body, he looked at her blinking his eyes a bit.

"How can we be so trusting of this… thing?" She motioned towards it.

Sonic was smelling his pits when they all looked, he nervously smiled. "Was it something I said?" he asked.

"Jeremy, you know XANA, he's pulled things like this before! Remember when he posed as my father? He acted as if he was there to help us, but he ended up putting us in more danger then ever! Surely you believe this could be a trick! Check the super scan, maybe a tower's been activated!" She said a bit frightened.

"Ok Aelita… just calm down…" Jeremy pressed the button, allowing a super scan to take place.

Everyone looking at the screen and back to sonic, who was sitting on the ground with a pouted look on his face, bored. "Talk about being prejudice… you see a blue hedgehog and all of the sudden you think he's a threat… oh hey! A rock!" He grabbed it and tossed it into the air and caught it as it fell. "Now what can I do with a rock…" He pondered, as he continued to lightly toss it. "I know!" He jumped to his feet. Lightly tossing it in the air once more, and once again but then hitting it with the side of his foot, he began to play 'hacky sack' with the rock.

"Yeah! Alright!" He did a few fancy moves, a few times behind him jumping up and down and switching feet. He smiled as he kicked it over to Odd, "hey umm.. Odd! Give it a shot!" He smiled, Odd, caught off guard saw the rock and tried to copy the hedgehog.

"Um, like this?" Odd said, hitting it with the side of his foot.

"Yeah, don't let it hit the ground! Try a few moves to keep it difficult!" Said the blue blur, smiling as Odd tried to copy Sonic's movies.

A few moments later the scan picked up no activated tower, Jeremy looked to Aelita, with a sad look. "Sorry Aelita, but there's no activated tower, this isn't XANA's doing…" He said sadly, he hated to see her so scared.

"Th-Then maybe he's found a way to create spectre's without activating a tower! Because there's no way that… thing can be a normal animal!"

"Hey, I take offense to that, listen there's no need to be afraid of me" Sonic said with a frown.

"No need to be afraid? If we weren't so experienced with lyoko we would have informed the police about you… Things! What kind of animal wear's socks and gloves? And speaks English?" She said with an angry tone.

He looked at her confused. "Umm… well.. Where I'm from, everyone." He smiled nervously. "Look, I can see we're causing a disturbance here… and if you REALLY don't want me or my friends to be here, when they wake up I'll tell them we need to go." He sighed, "And here I thought you would be so open hearted to a poor, homeless hedgehog…" He went to his knees and crawled over to Aelita. "Can't you see we have nowhere else to go?" He crawled to her feet and looked her in the face. "We've nowhere else to go! Have a heart Aelita… give us a chance… we're all house broken!"

She rolled her eyes, as the others began to laugh and giggle. "Come on Aelita, XANA doesn't know comedy like this, there's no way this is his doing." Jeremy said, struggling not to laugh.

"Please Aelita! I promise we won't be no botha." He said with an accent. He began to kiss her feet. "Oh please!" His head hit the ground and he began to fake cry.

She sighed, "Fine… but if you even show the SLIGHTEST sign of being a spectre of XANA then you're out of here? Got that?" She said.

"Oh thank yah! Thank yah Aelita! Your kindness knows no bounds!" He hugged her, then let go and began to laugh.

They all joined him, except for Aelita, who was untrusting of the blue hedgehog.

An hour passed, Yumi was asleep, along with Ulrich. Sonic and Odd on the other hand were playing Go Fish. Where did they get the cards? Don't ask me, I don't know.

"Heh heh heh…" Sonic snickered, "so… Odd… got any fours?" He smiled, confidently.

"What? How… you must be cheating…" Odd said defeated, handing him the card.

"How could I be cheating? You've had your eyes on your cards this whole time! I couldn't POSSIBLY be cheating…" Sonic smiled, snatching the card, them not knowing about his sonic speed at least gave him this advantage. "Ok Odd… have any two's?"

"Hah! Not this time hedgehog! Go fish!" He smiled triumphantly. "So Sonic… have any king's?" Odd asked smiling.

Sonic put on a cute face with big eyes. "Oops… sorry Odd, Don't have any fives here… you're gonna have to go fish…" He smiled when the yellow fox's tails began to move.

"uughh… What… what's…" His blurred vision soon turned to normal when he saw his friends unconscious. "Oh… Something must have happened between sonic and shadow…" He sighed, turning around. "Wha?" Tails gasped, seeing the group of teens and sonic playing Go Fish with a purple wearing teen.

"S-Sonic? What's going on?" He asked, scarred, "Why're Amy, Knuckles, and Shadow all unconscious?"

"Hmm?" Sonic looked to his right, seeing tails awake and scared he shrugged his shoulders, "I have no idea. We'll try and sort this out when everyone's awake, for the moment why not get to know everyone… well… the three who are awake." He said taking another card from odd. "Whelp look at that, we're out of cards… you have four pairs and I've got… twenty three pairs. I think I won."

"Aaah! I can't believe you beat me! You must've been cheating!" He sighed, defeated.

"Sorry, I'm just that good at Go Fish… I'm the champ!" Sonic stretched.

Tails walked around nervously, first to Aelita, who ignored him. She didn't hate him, she just didn't trust him. He sighed.

"Hi. Are you tails?" Asked Jeremy. Tails jumped up, noticing Jeremy. "U-Um… Y-Yeah, who-who are you?" He asked nervously.

"I'm Jeremy, it's nice to meet you Tails." He held out his hand to shake, like sonic did with Aelita. Tails smiled, and confidently grasped Jeremy's hand, shaking it.

"I'm Miles 'tails' prower, but my friends call me tails… It's nice to meet you Jeremy." He smiled.

"So tails, you're friends with sonic, and are they friends with him to?" Jeremy asked.

"Yeah, well everyone except for shadow…" Tails said, pointing to the black hedgehog.

Jeremy looked surprise, "Wait, are they enemy's? should we tie him up?" Jeremy looked at the passed out group.

"Oh no, he won't hurt anyone. He's not an enemy, just rivals." Tails smiled, but his smile soon faded when he saw the super computer, and his expression turned into a fascinated one. "Whoa!" He dashed towards it, admiring it. "This is amazing!" Tails jumped into the seat, and began to press keys.

Jeremy looked in fear, "Hey wait! Don't touch anything!" Jeremy ran over to him.

"Don't worry, I'm no amateur in programming." He said, "I know a lot about it!"

Sonic walked over to Jeremy, "Don't worry bud, he's not gonna screw anything up, tails' the smartest guy I know." Sonic reassured.

"Yeah, YOU know, but compared to me he must be—"

"A genius? Trust me, unless you know how to build radars or giant flyable vehicles on your own then you can't beat tails." Sonic laughed, "Tails has the IQ of almost 300, close to that of our nemesis, Robotnik."

Jeremy's eyes widened, "Th-Three hundred?" He looked at the yellow fox. "Bu-But how does he know so much?" Jeremy asked in disbelief.

"I don't know how, I was just born this way." He continued to hit the buttons but looked at Jeremy, then stopped. "Ahh… heh heh… sorry about that…" He jumped out of the seat. And scratched the back of his head. "I sort of like to mess around with technology… Sorry if I scared you…" He said in a sad tone.

"Oh… it's no problem, maybe you could even help me with these programs I'm trying to finish, when everyone wakes up at first…" Jeremy smiled, as did Tails, finally finding someone he can have a conversation with.

A few hours passed, the group was talking and having a bit of fun waiting for Shadow, Amy and Knuckles to wake up, but time passed, they got tired and all fell asleep on the factory floor.

The next morning…

The blue hedgehog yawned, "aaaahh…" He scratched his back and looked around. Yumi was lying on Ulrich's shoulder, Aelita sleeping next to Jeremy and tails snuggled next to his friends. Sonic looked around, Why am I always the first to wake up? He thought to himself.

He climbed the ladder and walked out of the sewers, to take a peak of the new world he was in. "seems it looks just like last time… at least this time I'm not as lost as last time…" he sighed. He jumped down and climbed back down the ladder.

He looked at the group, an odd looking one at that. Hmm… I wonder how this'll work. They're just teenagers… so they must go to school, plus… what's this XANA thing they were talking about? That Aelita girl sure seemed to be afraid of it… maybe there's some way I can help! He smiled with confidence, as soon he explained how they got here he'll ask them about XANA.

An hour or so passed, everyone was awake, and Amy, Knuckles and Shadow began to awake as well. They all stood still, questions everyone wanted to ask, but was too afraid to ask them. Sonic sighed, "OK OK… this is getting boring… So I'll start… Amy, Knuckles, Shadow? This is, Jeremy, He pointed to Jeremy. Yumi, He pointed to her, Ulrich, He pointed to him. Odd, he pointed to him. And finally Aeli…ta…" She turned away from him. "She's not very fond of us…" He sighed, "so anyway… you five ask the question first… even though I probably already know what it's going to—"

"How did you five get here?" They all asked, except for Aelita.

"Be…" He sighed, "Ok, well… the thing is… it started like a normal day for us… But then Mr. Hot pants over there," he pointed to shadow, " wanted to fight, and being the kind of guy who likes action I had no choice but to accept." He smiled and got into a boxers position. "So there we were… Neck and neck! Duking it out like two boxers in a boxing match!" He motioned boxing moves and throwing punches left and right into the air.

"Boom! He kicked me in the gut… BAM! I punched'em right in the kisser!" Sonic said doing upper cuts and kicks. "Finally it looked like I had won, but shadow pulled a fast one…" Sonic grabbed the green emerald and held it between his fingers. "He pulled out this little number and began to use its energy of chaos control! He ran up to me, about to use it when I pulled out an emerald to match! I was hoping to beat him to it but we activated it at the same time causing us to be… umm… Transported! From our dimension… to yours…" He said, breathing in. "MAN that was a mouthful." He sighed.

"OK… so explain a few more things to me." Jeremy said, what is… Chaos control?" He asked, intrigued.

"Oh that, well when one of us gets ahold of one of these emeralds and we can use chaos energy—DON'T ask about that either…" Sonic said.

Odd put his hand down, sighing.

"we can activate the ability, chaos control, which allows us to stop time… now if TWO people use it there are two possibilities. One: if we both had the same idea, a certain date, and year, we can go back in time. And Two: If both of us use it simultaneously withOUT the same idea we could well… do what we did to send us here…" he said.

"So what you're saying is you guys were sent here by accident?" Yumi asked.

Sonic sat down. "Pretty much."

Odd looked at them, "Ok… my question… what animal are you guys? Any of you a dog?" He asked excited.

"Mmmnope… sorry… I'm a hedgehog, she's a hedgehog… tails is a fox, Knuckles is an… ant eater…" sonic paused.

"Hey you blue rodent! I'm an echidna! Get it right!" He shouted.

Sonic chuckled, "Oh yes, an echidna, how could I be so STUPID?" He laughed, "And Shadow's a hedgehog to." He said looking.

"Ok… question two." Ulrich began. "Why are you all wearing clothing?" He asked.

"Well I'm a girl, I've got to hide what's precious" She smiled, Ulrich blushed embarrassed.

"and… well I'd feel weird without my good ole shoe's on." Sonic said. "Sides, would you want to walk around the earth without any protection on?" He asked.

"Well… no…" Ulrich said.

"Exactly. Now… I've got some questions for you all…" Sonic said standing up. "What is… XANA?" He asked, Aelita's eyes opened wide and she turned around.

"That's none of your business!" She said walking up to him. "What XANA is, is our business! Not yours!" She shouted. "You'll just stay out of it!" She said angrily to the blue hedgehog.

He blinked, everyone was surprised, including Jeremy. "Aelita… what's gotten into you?" He asked her.

She turned to him. "How can you all be falling for XANA's tricks?" She shouted some more, "XANA's obviously found a way to create spectres without activating a tower! And you're all playing right into his trap! Next one of them will attack me! Virtualize me and… I don't even know what he's planning! Jeremy Please! You have to believe me!" She looked at him, her eyes tearing up.

Amy looked at her, "Are we causing trouble here sonic?" She whispered.

"I don't know… but if she really doesn't trust us then maybe we shouldn't stay." He whispered back.

"Hmph…" Shadow walked past the pink and blue hedgehog. He walked up to the pink haired girl. "your name is Aelita, correct?" He asked, a look of serious on his face.

She nodded.

"What are the signs of being a… Spectre?" He asked.

"Well… there's the alteration of the voice… not really showing any emotion… and… the XANA symbol in your eyes." She said.

"Look into our eyes then. Do we have the so called symbol?" He asked, an eye brow raised.

She looked deeply into his eyes and the others. "N…No… But—"

"Then that's that… we're not the so called spectre, we're from another dimension and that is that." He walked back to the group of four and stood next to Knuckles.

"Yes… well… that was a more direct approach… but we could have just gotten her to trust us… instead of scaring her half to death shadow…" sonic sighed.

"if anything I saved us some time… the less she trusts us the more work there is to be done… now she knows we aren't this spectre and we can get to work on getting us home." He sighed.

"Well… just like last time we don't know how long that could take, weeks, months, year's maybe." Sonic said. "soo… like I said… can you tell us what XANA is? Maybe we could help you out with whatever it is that XANA is." Sonic smiled, hoping they could help.

Jeremy looked at Ulrich, Yumi and Odd. His eyebrow raised, asking the question "Should we tell them?" Without actually saying it. They all nodded, Aelita paid no attention, and she still didn't trust them. Jeremy sighed and walked over to them. "XANA is a rouge program that lives inside of the super computer, or… who has recently escaped from it."

"When he activates a tower," Ulrich chimed in. "He can cause damage to our world, he can cause hectic weather problems, possesses humans to do his dirty work."

"He can also produce, what Aelita believes you are, spectres. Not only that, he can create these polymorphic clones… which he can use to take the form of anything he pleases, even us." Jeremy added, "At first XANA lived on the super computer, causing trouble with us and our school. The only way to destroy him then was to shut down the super computer."

"Then.. why didn't you?" The blue blur asked, "if he was causing so much trouble why not shut it down?" He pondered.

"Well we wanted to, but Aelita also lived in the super computer, and if we turned off the super computer, bye bye XANA but.. Aelita to." Jeremy sighed.

"Huh…" Sonic tapped his foot. "Well it's settled then." He smiled, looking back to his friends, who knew what he was going to say. A smile crossed their faces as well, except for shadow who just nodded. "We're going to help deal with this… XANA, and we're not gonna take no for an answer." He grinned, knowing that this he wasn't going to be so bored in this dimension.

"Excuse me for asking.." Yumi said stepping forward. "Not that we don't appreciate your wanting to help but… what exactly can you do? I mean… I know you got here using that… Control thing you were talking about earlier, but what else can you do? Like without those?" She asked, hands on her hips.

"Well…" Sonic smiled, as he loved to show off. He zipped next to Yumi, "My name isn't just a name! It speaks the truth! I can run faster than the speed of sound! One second, I'm here—" He zipped to one side of the factory, "The next, I'm over here!" He shouted as he appeared on the other side of the factory, then running back. He grinned.

Everyone was impressed but something seemed off to Odd. "Hey wait a minute!" He said a bit angry.

Sonic's ear twitched to this, "Hmm?" "That means you were cheating! You looked at my cards so fast I didn't notice!" He accused.

"I have NO idea what you're talking about…" Sonic said innocently .

"Any… Am—" He was pushed out of the way as Amy burst forward.

"I can tell them what I can do without your help sonic! But thanks a lot for caring." She winked as sonic stood up after falling. "I'm Amy rose," She curtseyed. "I may look cute, but when I get mad…" She pulled out a giant red and yellow hammer. "Prepare for a bashing!" She said with a devious look in her eyes.

They all took a step back, Odd whispered to Ulrich, "Remind me not to get on her bad side."

"Same goes for me." Ulrich added.

"The red guy, as hot headed and as gullible as he is—"

"Hey!" Knuckles shouted.

"He is actually, probably one of the strongest in our group, why not show'em what you can do knuckles?" Sonic smiled, suddenly disappearing from the group.

"Hmm? Where'd he go?" Odd asked, looking around.

"Look over there," Amy said, not surprised at all.

Over in the distance there was a giant rock that was rolling towards them, behind it sonic, struggling to push it. "Hurgh! Aaghh!" You could hear him grunt. "Come on you hunk of earth!" The boulder slowed down, soon to a stop and he patted it, breathing. "I always hate doing that… Do your stuff knuckles… I'm gonna chill over here…" He walked over and fell on his face, tired.

"With pleasure!" Knuckles walked over, stretching his arm. "Hurraah!" His fist plowed through the boulder, which shattered into pieces.

Everyone gaped in surprised, even Aelita. "Th-That's amazing!" Jeremy said. "But… this also makes our situation worse…" He said in disappointment.

"Why's that? You've got a group of super powered beings! XANA doesn't stand a chance!" Sonic grinned.

"That's the problem, he could possess one of you! Then we'd be in real trouble!" Yumi said, "As much as we want your help we're afraid of the consequences."

Sonic scoffed, "Psshh… don't worry about it. Whatever he does can't possibly be worse then what Robotnik does. Oh, by the way… don't ask about that either since he isn't… well… SHOULDN'T be here there's no need to explain him." He yawned. "So… now that we've explained everything… what now?" He asked, sitting down.

"Well… WE have to get to school, Jim's going to be on us all day, wondering where we were all last night and this morning!" Aelita pointed out. "if we don't get back we could all be suspended!" She said.

"Yeah… she's right, why don't you all just stick here, if there's a XANA attack We'll let you guys know." Jeremy said as they began to leave.

"Wait, you're just leaving us here? What do we do the whole time you're gone?" Tails asked.

"Figure something out! If we don't get back we'll be in serious trouble!" Ulrich said.

Well that's chapter two guys! I hope you enjoy it! I'll try and get chapter three up tomorrow! Enjoy!
