My first ever fanfiction ever. Am I nervous? Yes I am, but also excited to have a go with this. First off, the timeline of this story is that it takes place 4 years after Sonic Lost World. Sonic 06, Sonic Forces & Sonic Frontiers does not happen, but I will be borrowing a few aspects from their storylines for the plot for the story, especially the first two. Secondly, Silver the Hedgehog has been changed from being his future lone survivor into a orphaned silver hedgehog who had to see his parents die gruesomely in front of him as a child with the innate ability to use psychokinesis. Other than that, personality-wise he is still the same character with a different backstory. Thirdly, the inclusion of characters like Sally Acorn, Bunnie Rabbot and Antonie D'Coolette. Just like Silver, personality-wise they are the same but Sally's origins and her skill sets have changed along with her bloodline that will be revealed later on in the story.

These four characters will be changed to be roughly the same age (15), as they all are G.U.N new recruits led by Team Dark.

Lastly, this story will be split into four parts, with the first one being: The Station Square Conflict

Ages for the characters- Sonic (19), Tails (12), Knuckles (20), Shadow (Ageless), Rouge (22), Omega (None), Amy (16), Espio (20), Vector (24), Charmy (10), Cream (10), Blaze (18)

Buckle up everyone, because we're going to be in for a wild ride. Hope you all enjoy this and provide any feedback on the story.

Disclaimer: I don't own Sonic The Hedgehog as in the games and the comics or the following shows which I borrowed some inspiration from e.g., Jujustu Kaisen and Dragon Ball. Shout out to the original creators for creating great pieces of fiction.

Without further ado, let's begin with Sonic New Horizons…

Chapter 1- All-Out Brawl With The Trio Of Mechanical Geniuses

December 25th 20XX

A widespread red, glitch-like "force field" was cast around Station Square. Team Sonic along with G.U.N and the new recruits are called to the scene. They all broke into four teams and briefed on the situation. Meanwhile, the civilians trapped inside Station Square are forced to call for Sonic. Eventually, their pleas are met and the Earth's greatest freedom fighter arrives on the scene.

Outside the "force field", at Speed Highway, the new recruits consisting of Silver, Sally, Antoine & Bunnie each have mixed reactions being part of the mission.

"Our first ever high rank mission, huh" Said Sally with a determined tone of voice.

"Yea, it is Sally" Silver responded back to Sally who was standing side-by-side with him with the same tone of voice, but slightly anxious.

"Our..first….high rank mission…" Antonie nervously swallows his saliva, obviously scared but is trying to put on a strong front.

"Don't worry 'Twan, everything will be alright" Bunnie goes on to reassure her teammates, which somewhat boosts his spirit.

Rouge and Omega reassures them that they are here to act as additional support, and that they will be their supervisors for the mission, while Shadow and the Commander briefly conserve a bit far from them.

"This seems like a trap, but from who?" The G.U.N Commander says arms crossed.

"Whatever it is, we need to act both cautiously and effectively" Shadow replies back to the Commander.

Sonic arrives at the centre of Station Square and encounters Metal Sonic accompanied with a newly modelled Gizoid and E-series robot, chuckling at the sight of Metal Sonic having friends. Metal Sonic ignores Sonic's comment and assumes a fighting pose, as does G–23 and E-40.

"Huh, well if it is a fight you want Metal. Bring it on, all of you!" Sonic exclaims with his usual cocky attitude despite the obvious numerical advantage his opponent has over him.

From the hole on its palm, E-40 fires off a blast of concentrated energy which Sonic effortlessly evades. E-40 doesn't stop from there and unleashes a double explosive cannon that creates a wave of destruction and debris towards Sonic. With the debris blocking his field of vision, Metal Sonic and G-23 go on a coordinated assault on the hedgehog with a series of synced-up attacks. E-40 catches up to the three and sends five giant energy bullets twisting and chasing Sonic throughout the area, already clashing with the combined forces of Metal Sonic and G-23. Still, Sonic remains confident that he is going to win.

Sonic avoids Metal Sonic and G-23's two-pronged attack and slips out of the small explosion created from the impact.

"Running away as usual, how about some hostages?" Metal Sonic coldly utters and snatches the head of a human for good measure.

"Hm, I am surprised Metal" Sonic remarks at Metal Sonic's sudden action

"Already making excuses, so called Fastest Thing Alive" Metal Sonic replies with the same cockiness as Sonic

"Nah, I'm surprised that you think using a hostage would give you the advantage with that sorry excuse of a brain you have" Sonic answered back smugly at Metal Sonic

Sonic swiftly takes the hostage away from Metal Sonic and points at G-23 and openly announces he will be taking it down first. Metal Sonic speeds to Sonic and attempts to throw an uppercut while G-23 attacks from behind again. Sonic parries Metal Sonic's punch and twists his wrist with physical martial arts using both his hands. Metal Sonic is surprised by this, as Sonic is not one to have martial arts as one of his arsenal.

"Gotta thank that Knucklehead for teaching a few nice tricks" Sonic says in his thoughts

Sonic proceeds to drag Metal Sonic down to avoid G-23's kick from behind and then slips his left leg over Metal Sonic's shoulder. Using a mounted armbar, Sonic rips Metal Sonic's arm clean off and blocks G-23's follow-up strike with the severed appendage. G-23 attempted a downward punch that might have carried enough power, but Sonic blocked it with the arm while kicking out G-23's lead leg to disrupt the momentum as well.

Metal Sonic performs a few backflips to gain some distance away and tries to think of his next play, E-40 analyses the situation, taking in everything it has seen. For example, Sonic's unexpected usage of martial arts into his fighting style that was not in its database. E-40 decides that the best course of action was an all-out blast of energy, but this turns out to be a fatal mistake. Metal Sonic notices his ally's error and turns back to yell at E-40.

"E-40, stop at once!" Metal Sonic shouts out, but it's too late. With its energy beam near completion, Sonic looks back at E-40, expressing a cocky grin. Sonic blitzes E-40, instantly appearing on E-40's body. He grabs its hands and breaks them, considering them as his sole method of attacking. Metal Sonic tries to get his attention by threatening the lives of the nearby humans. However, Sonic completely ignores him and envelopes himself in a blue energy field and completely smashes E-40's body as if he was a living projectile. With E-40 defeated, Sonic looks at Metal Sonic and G-23

"Done already?" Sonic questioned the duo with a smirk

That's the first chapter of Sonic New Horizons, starting off with a skirmish between Sonic and Metal Sonic with his robotic partners. Expect more action-packed scenes from the future chapters ahead. Tell me your thoughts in the review, your favourite part or feedback.
