SuperSonicSpeed: HI!
Shadow: ... She doesn't own us.
Sonic: C'mon Shads! Don't have to be so serious!
SuperSonicSpeed: You did not just make a joker reference... Anyways! Thank you Pokemonallstarfan for your idea/request! I hope you all enjoy! Chloemeg, the moment you mentioned Galahad I realized I needed to put him in this story as well and it gave me an idea, so I thank you as well. RobinsintheSky, thanks for setting me straight with the eye color, I realized my mistake a bit too late, BUT, it gave me an idea for a mini twist. I Thank you as well. Also, all questions will be answered at the bottom. Start!
"All hail King Sonic!"
Crowds waved and bowed at the new king of Camelot.
Lancelot looked around confused as he stood guard with Percival and Gawain.
'King Sonic?' Lancelot looked behind him and saw his grown son on the throne.
But the celebration was interrupted when shadow creatures began to appear. Each knight fought, only to succumb to their abilities. The Knights of the Round table were surrounded by these monstrosities and watched in horror as the king was lifted up by a malevolent being.
He laughed and looked at Lancelot. Neon eyes glinted in delight,
"Such a weak ruler, wouldn't you agree?" He took out his sword and raised it high, "Knight's of the Round Table."
The sword came down...
"NO!"
Lancelot woke from his sleep with a gasp, his son on his side sound asleep.
'He's alright... It was just a nightmare.' Lancelot put his face in his hands, trying to comprehend the dream. His ears began to flicker as he rubbed his eyes, sleep gone, 'Screams?'
He quickly stood up and ran towards the window only to see the village being set on full blaze of fire.
'The shadow beings!' Lancelot quickly put on his armor, but paused at the door when he realized something, 'Sonic... I can't just leave him here!'
"Lancelot! We need you!" He heard from a voice that sounded like Gawain.
Lancelot walked over to his son and lightly kissed his forehead, "Please, stay here. No matter what, stay here."
Hoping that he was heard, he locked the door and ran off to the outside of the castle.
Total chaos was the word best to describe the scene. People tried putting out the fires that burned their stands, their fields, even their homes. But the creatures slammed them aside, preventing any further actions.
Lancelot was attacked as soon as he ran out, but he quickly defended.
"Took you long enough!" Gawain yelled as he pushed one away.
"I had a few," Lancelot ducked, "Things to take care of."
"Where did you leave Sonic?" Percival twisted into a fiery tornado.
"He's safe. Don't worry." Lancelot looked at the door of the castle and noticed shadows heading up the windows on the very bricks of the castle, "We have to get back inside! The King needs us!"
"What about the villagers!?" Percival yelled.
"The other knights can handle it!" Gawain yelled running after Lancelot.
The Knights pushed away the creatures blocking them and headed inside.
With Sonic
Sonic slowly awoke to the screaming coming from outside. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and looked around half-asleep.
"Daddy?"
No answer.
"Daddy? Where are you?"
He stood up and jumped off the bed, landing with a small thud. Then pushed a chair towards the window to try to get a view of what was going on outside.
"I can't open it." Sonic looked down, 'Daddy must've locked them.'
He ran over to the door and tried opening it, "Locked..."
Sonic went back and forth in the room looking for a way out until a small click caught his attention. He quickly ran to the door, looking at it with suspicion.
"Did someone unlock it?" Sonic turned the nob slowly, "It's open."
Sonic took a peek outside, the door crack barely visible, but didn't see anything out of the ordinary. A gust of wind past by him,
"Daddy!"
Sonic slammed the door open and ran after him, "Which way did he go?"
He looked at the three passages Lancelot could've gone through, 'I'll just go left.'
He began to hear screaming coming from outside again. Curiosity got the better of him and he climbed on a soldier statue. His eyes widened at the sight of the fires, 'What's going on!?'
He jumped off the statue and began to run full force,
"Daddy! Where are you?!" He paused as he began to shiver uncontrollably and felt something staring, 'Don't look back. Don't look back.'
The shadow jumped in front of him when he decided to run. His yellow eyes flickering to neon green and back.
"Leave me alone!" Sonic tried once more to run, but felt his arm being constrained, "DADDY!"
"Shhh." The shadow spoke, "There's nothing to fear."
Sonic began to fight back, kicking and all, but the shadow was not affected. Instead, he was slowly carried into the shadows.
With Lancelot
"Stand back!" Lancelot swung his sword to a more evolved version of the creatures. It resembled a wild cat, fangs longer than a thumb, and claws sharp as his blade.
The king fought along side them with his own sword, "Lancelot, we need to check on the people."
"Right now, we must protect you your majesty." Lancelot slashed through the shadow and looked at Gawain.
Just when he was about to attack,
"DADDY!"
Lancelot's ears perked up, causing him to get distracted for a milisecond.
"Look out!" Gawain blocked the blow towards Lancelot just in time, "Keep your guard up!"
"Sonic!" Lancelot was torn, go to his son, or complete his duty as a knight.
"Go to him." Lancelot looked at the king, "It seems that the shadow creatures are weakening. We can handle it."
Percival and Gawain nodded him off and Lancelot didn't ask questions.
"Sonic!" Lancelot ran around all the hallways of the castle, "Son!"
He turned another corner and noticed the room door open, 'Did someone break in? The handle wasn't like this before.'
A strange humming sound caught his attention. Quietly, he approached the corner where the sound echoed from.
His eyes widened, 'Sonic!'
Sonic floated over the floor asleep, a strange aqua glow around him. Lancelot's full attention went to the one responsible, the shadow with yellow eyes. He dashed towards him and thrusted his sword forward. The shadow barely dodged it, but the surprise caused Sonic to fall on the floor.
"Wait!"
Lancelot didn't listen as he swung his sword once again, forcing him to show himself by a torch light. Platinum armor decorated the silver colored hedgehog.
"Who are you!? What did you do to my son?!" Lancelot charged again.
The silver hedgehog quickly blocked with his sword, the wall's cold stone on his back,
"I am Galahad. I heard a great battle was brought upon this kingdom and I decided to help. I found the kit already unconscious. I was only trying to heal him!"
Lancelot maintained his glare.
"I swear, I have no connections to the shadow creatures that attacked!"
"AAAAAH!"
Lancelot turned, "Percival!"
He turned to see Galahad holding his son causing his glare to deepen. He took Sonic out of Galahad's arms and headed back to the throne room.
Throne Room
"Percival! Are you alright!?" Gawain yelled as he saw her sword fly out of her hand.
"I'm fine, protect the king at all costs!" She used her fire abilities and burned the shadows that neared her.
A hoard began to make their way in, when an odd blue circle appeared below them. In a flash, they howled in pain and disappeared.
Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw a silver hedgehog right next to Lancelot,
"I've come from a far land to give aid to your kingdom."
The king stepped forward, "You have my thanks young knight. Please, rise and speak your name."
He slowly rose, "I am known as Sir Galahad."
"I welcome you to Camelot Galahad." The king looked at his knights, "We must still purge out the other shadows."
"Already handled my king." Spoke Merlina as she entered the room, "I apologize for my tardiness, but it seemd that these forces corrupted a few of my spells. This new one should last us for some time."
The king sighed in relief and looked at a few servants that were hiding, "Prepare a room for Galahad. He shall stay as a guest of honor."
Lancelot was about to object when he heard a faint groan coming from Sonic. He held him close,
"It's ok now. Shh..." Lancelot rocked him slightly.
"Daddy?" Sonic looked around until everything seemed to suddenly click, "DADDY!" He hugged him tight, "I-I-"
"I know son... I'm sorry I had to leave you behind." Lancelot kissed the top of his son's head.
Everyone looked at Sonic with worry.
'Hopefully this doesn't effect his future of becoming a knight.' Gawain looked away.
'This is too much for a kit to absorb... poor little one' Percival's eyes softened.
Each one began to walk away and once they were out of earshot, Lancelot whispered,
"Tell me son, do the eyes of that hedgehog match the eyes you've seen over the past few days?"
Sonic looked at his father bewildered, "Eyes? What are you talking about daddy?"
Lancelot stiffened, 'He has no memory of it? Could that hedgehog done something to him? Or am I jumping to conclusions?' He grew worried and cradled his son closer in his arms.
"Let's go to bed. It's been a long night for the both of us." Lancelot sighed, 'It seems I'll have to keep my guard up near Galahad.'
Sonic began to nod off, before he shut his eyes, a slight flicker of neon green appeared.
SuperSonicSpeed: That ends this chappie.
Shadow: Chappie?
SuperSonicSpeed: What!? I always say chapter!
Sonic: You have questions!
SuperSonicSpeed: Some ones excited.
Shadow: When isn't he?
Sonic: This one comes from SylverEclipse,
Shadow: "Will Sonic have a love interest?"
Sonic: *Blushes*
SuperSonicSpeed: The answer is no, mostly because I think it would sorta clash or overthrow the father/son theme that's been set. That goes the same for Lancelot/Shadow, no shadamy or shadaze for this story. ANYWHO, Thank you all for reading, favoriting, following! Please review and let me know what you think. If you have requests, feel free to pm me or review :). G-night Everyone!
