Sonic continued looking at the crowd of people around him and decided to finally say something to them; "Hello there... Could you please give me directions because in case you didn't know I am kind of lost, so... Anyone know the way to South Island?" Sonic asked casually with his hand up as his glow starting going away causing the crowd around him to be even more shocked and the whispers to continue.

"It can talk..." muttered out one person who had jumped stepping back.

"It can speak English..." shouted out someone else as Sonic then raised an eyebrow.

"No, I speak Mobian and I think you all do as well... Not too surprised since Robotnik was able to... You know him? Big moustache and gaudy coat?" Sonic then responded as he got into a walking stance. "Now if you don't mind could you please..." Sonic then asked wanting them to make space for him but then there was the sounds of sirens and uniformed police officers came in with their trucks and cars; them shouting for the crowd to move away as the officers made a circle around him and some even ready to draw their guns or batons if need to be.

They looked at him with wide eyes as Sonic decided to ask jokingly "so are you all the welcome committee?" Sonic asked as they had him surrounded as the officers were confused for a second but managed to shake it off.

"A talking animal... I thought that after 13 years on the force that I had seen everything..." snarked one of the officers as the surrounding circle enclosed more onto Sonic which had him annoyed.

"Whatever... Put your hands up and come quietly rodent or else we won't make this easy for you..." snapped one of the prisoners and Sonic then glared at them before running past them as they jumped at them. They landed in a heap as Sonic then ran down the road with them rushing to get into their cars and trucks.

The sirens were on as Sonic zoomed past and around the cars on the road as they then chased him down a hill bit of the road. "Subject is heading towards the Golden Gate Bridge; requesting backup and a roadblock to cut him off..." called one of the officers to his communication device.

Sonic soon got to the roadblock in front of the Golden Gate Bridge, he grinned as he then just charged forward with the officers terrified and bracing for impact. However at the very last second he turned the corner and gave the startled officers a mocking spit out of his tongue.

Sonic laughed but heard sounds right over him as there were helicopters on his tail now marked with the yellow 'G' logo that was the symbol for GUN; the pilots of the helicopters then fired the machine guns connected to the helicopters which startled Sonic as he just kept on running faster. The cars on the road barely getting out of the way and the pedestrians running away in terror.

"Could have gotten someone hurt; who are these people and what are their deal?" Sonic muttered to himself as he glared up at them. Soon he found GUN trucks coming his way and ended up crashing into the truck. He fell to his back as the black military uniformed soldiers of GUN with the GUN logo on their uniforms got out with nets ready. Sonic was pushed into one.

"Target neutralised; getting prepared to be moved..." said one of the soldiers to his intercom as one of the helicopters came down and Sonic in his net was loaded onto the helicopter. It went into the air and soon Sonic got his bearings enough to start to struggle and bite at the net. The agents got their weapons out but Sonic then decided to Spin Dash and in his net he managed to push his way out of the door to the helicopter with the soldiers yelling as they held on as to not fall out themselves with the pilot struggling to keep in the air with what is happening and had to make an emergency landing.

Sonic however yelled as he fell down right up in the air overlooking San Francisco.

At the US Pentagon; there was a video call set up between the Secretary of Defence and GUN Commander Walters and the Secretary was not too pleased with the news he was given. "You had the target and it escaped?" the Secretary asked angrily and ready to grit his teeth.

"Unfortunately sir but it had fallen from such a height that even in the unlikely event that it survived; it would be in shape to continue resisting. Whatever state it is in; Sigma Alpha-2 will find and retrieve it; they are GUN's best squad." Walters replied sounding apologetic while keeping it serious.

"Continue to do so; they are to remain until it is found and I expect nothing less than efficient and quick results; it's what the Presidents wants when he agreed to send in GUN. I will send out the order; for the duration of this mission the San Francisco Police Department answers to SA-2. We will be sending someone to help smooth things over with the public over what had happened." the Secretary then ordered him and once the call ended; he was ready to break something when an assistant entered. "Please have something resembling good news for me." he demanded as the assistant had a tablet.

"The guards at the black site stated that the Project is where it had been all of these years." the assistant told him and he accepted the news but it did give the question of where this creature came from. "Plus another specimen had been found along with an energy source found where one of the energy surges had been spotted so the theory so far is that it was responsible. The energy readings had died down but it could help us lead to where the rest are." the assistant then further explained as the Secretary calmed down.

"Have them brought to a GUN base for study. Anything else." The Secretary then ordered and the assistant nodded.

"During the investigation; a team discovered upon a crash aircraft carrier and had commandeered it. There was a person inside unconscious wearing peculiar clothing." the assistant then said showing the Secretary pictures on the tablet of the Egg Carrer and of the Eggman Empire logo as well as pictures of the knocked out Robotnik. "We have yet to have an ID of the man but there is a match for the symbol; the logo matches that of Eggman Industries; a technology and research company which was sold and folded 5 years ago." the assistant then said as the Secretary was then perplexed.

"Maybe this stranger once he is awake can give us some answers..." the Secretary then said as he then dismissed the assistant with her orders.

Inside a home in San Francisco; there was the Wachowski family. Tom a smiling man with his wife Maddie and their dog Ozzy sitting with his TV watching a black and white old detective noir movie. "You know sometimes I like to narrate to myself when I am alone in the office just for the hell of it; trying to make my cases of finding lost pets and who had been painting graffitti on their property all the more serious and adventure sounding." Tom said working at his own private detective firm.

"Well as long as you get to help people in need with their problems like you always wanted; free of the SFPD holding you back..." Tom said as they then heard a thud coming from the back which sent Ozzy to the kitchen barking. "Probably trash raccoons again... I will take care of this..." Tom said as he got up and then picked up his wife's tranquiliser gun from her job as a vet.

"Tom; you put that down right now..." demanded Maddie sternly running after him as he went through the back door with Maddie; their eyes widened as they saw Sonic struggling to pick himself up from the fall and then noticed them as they all started yelling. Sonic was hit with an accidentally shot tranquiliser dart to his leg. They then saw the lights to one of the windows light up.

"Now Jojo is up to see that we have... Whatever this is in our back..." Tom groaned thinking of their young daughter Jojo having been awakened past her bedtime.

Sonic failed to Escape from the City so this has scored an E Rank; please try again and maybe next time you could possibly get a S Rank. Plus yes I decided to bring in Tom and Maddie the best parents that any Sonic ever had in the entire franchise and change it so that Jojo is their daughter instead of niece.
