Chapter 12: Billy Hatcher (1):

Sonic's POV:

Me, Sally, Antoine, Bunnie, and Rotor were sneaking into Robotropolis. Antoine screams.

"What," I asked.

"Oh, I wahs just prahcteecing," says Antoine.

"Over here," says Rotor.

. . .

There was a door marked "Multiversal Portal Generator".

"Does Robotnik plan to invade other universes," asks Bunnie.

We then entered.

. . .

The generator looks like a giant egg.

"What is with this guy and eggs," I asked.

"This is amazing," says Rotor, "Robotnik might have discovered a way to travel to other dimensions!"

"So, whaht does ziss buttahn do?" Antoine then presses the button and then there was this light...

. . .

I opened my eyes and saw we were all in this weird place where chickens lived. "Where are we," asks Sally.

"Aah don't know, but they-yur darn tootin' a lot of eggs," says Bunnie.

"Maybe zese cheeckens cahn onsair," suggests Antoine.

I found a newspaper. "Morning Land," I asked, "where's that?"

Then these crows were attacking. We had to step in... except Anoine, he was hiding. The rest of us fought the crows and they left.

"What was that about," asks Rotor. He then picks up an egg.

"Drop that egg," says this kid in a chicken suit. These other kids in chicken suits then came and attacked us.

"It can't be," says Rotor.

The kids came after us and we had to defend ourselves. Then this one kid was almost crushed by rubble, but I saved that kid.

"There's no way you're the bad guys!"

. . .

We then got to know our new friends. "I'm Billy Hatcher, this is Rolly Roll, Chick Poacher, and Bantam Scrambled!"

"Right... I'm Sally, that's Sonic, Antoine, Bunnie, and Rotor."

"This can't be real," says Rotor.

"I know," I said, "those are the silliest names I have ever heard..." Rotor then dragged us away.

. . .

"You don't understand," says Rotor, "they're... video game characters!"

"Come ah-gain," asks Bunnie.

"Billy Hatcher, Rolly Roll," says Rotor, "they're all characters from my favorite video game, Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg!"

"But how is that possible," asks Sally.

"I don't know," says Rotor, "but if it weren't for these kids... who knows? I probably wouldn't have become a freedom fighter."

. . .

"I have had theories of other universes," says Billy.

"Then Robotnik's machine brought us here," I said.

"That still doesn't explain the Billy Hatcher game," says Rotor.

"Maybe the creators of the games had a subconscious link to this world; what they thought was creativity was actually flashes of the Guild's real exploits," Sally theorizes.

"The Chicken Elders promised my friends and me they can send us home if we defeat the Dark Raven," says Billy, "maybe they can do the same for you."

The Chicken Elders then came. "Billy Hatcher, you and your friends must defeat the forces of the Dark Raven!"

. . .

"It will be easier if we split up," says Billy.

"I could stay here ahnd keep ze cheecken elders sahfe," says Antoine.

"Then let's go," I said.

. . .

We then headed out. I was with Rolly, Sally was with Bantam, Bunnie was with Chick, and Rotor was with Billy.

Rotor's POV:

"It's an honor to be working with you, Billy," I said.

"Glad to hear it, Rotor," says Billy, "let's go!"

Sally's POV:

Bantam and I were in the Forest Village, in the west of Morning Land.

"Now what," I asked.

"Now him," says Bantam.

"Now me! I am Era Gecko!"

Bunnie's POV:

Chick 'n meh were en pirates island. "So, what do we have to expect?"

"We would have to expect Captain Glur," says Chick.

"That would be me," says Captain Glur.

Sonic's POV:

Me and Rolly were at Dino Mountain.

"Keep an eye out for Topo," says Rolly.

"What's a Topo," I asked.

"I'm a Topo!"

Rotor's POV:

"Wow," I said, "we're in Blizzard Castle! Are we going to deal with Moles?"

"Does that answer your question," asks Billy.

"Hello there," says Moles.

"Best day ever," I said.

Sally's POV:

Bantam and I were taking on Era Gecko. It was a close call, but we managed to win.

Bunnie's POV:

Chick 'n meh were fightin' Glurp, but Glurp managed to kill Chick, so aah knocked Glurp down!

Sonic's POV:

Rolly and me were fighting Topo, but we got captured!

Rotor's POV:

I'm not much of a fighter, but I still managed to help Billy take down Moles!

Bunnie's POV:

Aah was lookin' at chick's body. "What's wrong, Bunnie?" Aah was scared! Beh-cuz the boy aah just saw die... was standin' they-yur... right en front of meh!
