Chapter 44

A Lost Friend Found

Sonic-wolf had just heard that Sonic and Julie-Su escaped their cell and they were running around in the castle somewhere. He paced back and forth in the throne room and growled in annoyance.

"How did they escape? There's no way they could have escaped unless…" Sonic-wolf snarled the last past, "…That hedgehog used his wolf claws to unlock the door."

Sonic-wolf growled and headed out of the throne room. A few werewolf guards ran over to him.

"GET ALL THE GUARDS TO SEARCH AND FIND THAT HEDGEHOG AND ECHIDNA NOW!" Sonic-wolf shouted at the guards.

They saluted their King and ran on all fours down the hall. Sonic-wolf, however, walked down the hall, up some stairs and walked into a room and smiled at the sword in a case. He walked up to the glass case and put a hand on it.

"No one knows where the sword of Acorns is," Sonic-wolf said. "And it is in such an obvious place."

Sonic and Julie-Su hid behind a wall that led into a room, Sonic had never seen before. They were going to check it out, but there were werewolf guards standing in front of the doorway.

"Sonic, what do we do?" Julie-Su asked.

"Do what I always do. Take them out. Both at the same time," Sonic said.

"Sonic, that's insane. They'll call security," Julie-Su responded.

"Not unless I knock them out," Sonic said as he ran out from behind the wall.

He ran up to the werewolf guards and pushed, kicked and clawed at them to make them fall unconscious, but they were still awake.

"You can't kill us. We're immortal to your weak touch," one said.

Sonic growled and jumped into the air and kicked both of the werewolves' in the head. They're eyes rolled into the back of their heads and they fell unconscious. Sonic smirked and looked over at Julie-Su as she came out from behind the corner.

"I didn't expect that," she said.

"I learned some new tricks over the years that this universes' Sonic hasn't learnt yet," Sonic grinned.

Julie-Su smiled and nodded. They walked over to the door and opened it. The room was dark, other than a small light coming from a drawer. Sonic walked to it while Julie-Su looked around.

"This must be King Sonic and Queen Sally's room," Julie-Su said.

Sonic walked up to the drawer and opened it and saw a small silver bracelet with a green orb at the top. Sonic picked it up and a green light shone and blinded Sonic for a brief moment and then it went away. Sonic looked back at the bracelet and noticed it looked the same and scratched his head in confusion.

"That was … weird," Sonic said.

"Sonic … is that you, old friend," a soft voice asked.

"AHHH!" Sonic exclaimed in shock, nearly dropping the bracelet.

"What is it, Sonic?" Julie-Su asked.

Guess she can't hear this too, Sonic thought, rolling his eyes.

"Sorry, I scared you … I am guessing you're not Sonic, then," the voice said.

"My name is Sonic, but I'm from another zone. The Prime zone. The most important zone there is," Sonic explained.

"I see. Why did you wake me up? I am sort of in a bad mood," the voice said.

"How come?" Sonic asked.

"My friend Sonic: this zone's Sonic, has become a monster. I fear that anger has taken over his soul," the voice said.

"I hope you don't mind me asking, but what is your name?" Sonic asked.

"My name is Light Gaia, but Sonic nicknamed me Chip while we tried to put Mobius back together," Chip explained.

"You're that friend that Robotnik said always hung around this zone's Sonic when he was telling me what happened here," Sonic said.

"Yes, I suppose. But ever since Sonic became a werehog again, he has been angry and menacing," Chip told Sonic.

Sonic sighed.

"I've already noticed that. He got transported to my zone for a short while and I was unlucky enough to get bitten by him," Sonic told Chip.

Sonic heard a gasp come from the bracelet and sighed.

"Yeah, but anyway can I ask you another question?" Sonic asked.

"Okay, what is it?" Chip asked.

"Whatever happened to this Mobius' version of my parents? This zone Sonic's parents," Sonic asked.

"I don't … want to tell you," Chip said.

Sonic's ears fell in disappointment.

"But, maybe I can show you with my memories. But I warn you, what you may see may cause hurt to you," Chip warned Sonic.

"I'll take that chance," Sonic said.

Another bright light consumed Sonic and this time took him into a small memory portal. Once the light was gone. Sonic was too.
