Chapter Seven – Genesis Wave
Dimension – 23691 – Where The Titans Gather
The Titans were finally coming together on the main timeline, and they were making quite an impression. When it comes to being a Titan, there is no one better then Manic. The original and still the best, his Chi Earth Bending skills are completely unmatched and unrivalled.
But in the Multiverse, there are several versions of Manic The Hedgehog, such as the brother of Sukko on his world, or as one of the royal trio of the Sonic Underground, but only one is the true Titan. The only one able to stop bullets just by mere gesture. The brother of the version of the Blue Blur, who himself becomes a Sorcerer, but is outmatched and outgunned by his younger sibling. Still the total loose cannon, and a master thief, he causes absolute havoc, but ultimately, he is loyal to his siblings, even if they are from a different dimension to himself.
A call out to all Titans wouldn't be complete without the greatest 'Sonic' of them all. The Sapphire Dragon, or Saffie, and the complex Cyborg comes very much in two halves. His enormous half Dragon / half Hedgehog cyborg body and his digital holographic avatar, which can wirelessly show itself anywhere. An experienced inter-dimensional traveller, his sheer size and big temper makes Saffie very fearsome at first but just like any other 'Sonic' he is as free and fun loving as the rest of them. Saffie, started out just like any of the other 'Sonic', but due to a series of unforeseen events, lead to the creation of the incredible creature that is the Sapphire Dragon.
Who is the ultimate version of the Ultimate Lifeform? Shadow appears in multiple dimensions across the Multiverse, and in each, he is the strongest of them all. Therefore the Titan has to be a version of Shadow who achieves god-like status. But the Ultimate Lifeform has been both evil, and unruly, so how can he be trusted with such power, and not just use it to outright destroy the universe. By the simple fact that he's not alone.
Shadow is a loner, and on his own, he's good, but working together with someone, he is epic, able to achieve the impossible. He had a pet ghost, who stuns everyone, when they realise he's actually Sonic, Kee Kee as he was now known. But spending immortality alone, is not what any version of Shadow wants, and the Blue Blur know this. But despite his incredible power, Shads is trusted because even a ghost has influence.
Having now truly mastered Storm-breaker, he'd grown again in both size and stature, yet again, the muscles now even more clearly visible. His powers to had also grown exponentially, the true god that he now was. His coat a deep rich black, his red eyes and now stipes glowing. He could use Storm-breaker, on command, to create inter-dimensional portals and travel between them. The Demi-God was here to stay.
But regardless, the Titans were still one short.
Where was the Sorcerer?
Dimension – 61021 – When Hell Wants Payback
A Genesis Wave is the rearranging of the space and time of a dimension, to create a new timeline, reshaping the physical universe within it. Rewriting memories, and complete altering the structure of the dimension. Additionally, the Genesis Wave can rewrite dimensions adjacent to it, causing an avalanching effect across the Multiverse, which thankfully, does eventually faze out. The time-space altering effects of the Genesis Wave will linger for a short while, creating disturbances that can be detected throughout the new reality's timeline, registering the effects in the present, from the future of that dimension.
But Genesis Waves are incredibly dangerous. While they can rewrite memories of the residences of the dimensions, quite often, it doesn't bother. Anyone caught in a Genesis Wave will effectively be deleted, killed, and then, in the new rewritten dimension is created, a brand new version of of the person will replace them, reborn, will no memories of their previous life. Once the affected world and dimension has changed, it stays that way forever, it can't be reverted back. Millions of people have been died through Genesis Waves, as there are three methods of causing them.
First, through the use of the Chaos Emeralds, though it's heavily advised against it. However, the knowledge of how to trigger such an event, using the mighty gemstones, has long since been lost to time.
Second, they naturally occur. This is the most common cause of Genesis Waves, in which the Multiverse randomly decides that it's time for given dimension to change. This is usual a direct consequence of the Multiverse itself shifting due to it's own instability. These are impossible to predict and quite often happen completely unnoticed.
Thirdly, is Chaos Sorcery. Extremely powerful Magic itself, can lead to a series of unforeseen events, eventually triggering a Genesis Wave. The unknown consequences of a mighty Sorcerer's actions.
Sukko's home world. His beloved dimension.
He'd overdid it, and he didn't even know.
He used a planet wide cast to rewrite the dimension's entire history. Sukko changed everything, with waves of extremely powerful Magic. Pulsating all around the world, and every living being that was immediately caught with his enormous Telepathic trance. Everything stopped, as Sukko wiped and rewrote memories, hacked archives, retold books, and changed history. Mobius was never going to be the same again. He removed all Chaos Sorcery from everywhere, including himself and Sonikku, putting Stripes in as the Hero. It successfully fixed the planet. The Mobian Authorities stopped it's rampage against Chaos Creatures, but it consequentially lead into more dire happenings.
A avalanche of events. Starting small, then becoming larger, as the dimension, just couldn't cope with such extensive manipulations. Over the course of a year, it slowly began to collapse and disintegrate, becoming significantly less stable, until finally it happened, as the entire dimension descended into utter chaos.
A Genesis Wave.
Stripes panicked. He knew exactly what a Genesis Wave was, having read up on the subject, and was well aware that they were done for. He seen something coming but when the entire planet began to break down, Stripes knew he had to get out, off the dimension. But he had no means of doing it. The Ark, his beloved space station, was no longer orbiting this planet, it was around the Sol Empire. Though running to the Ark, may not have helped. With a Genesis Wave, everything in the entire dimension is engulfed, not just the planet. Inter-dimensional portals generators was an incredibly difficult piece technology to design and make. So far, he'd failed, and the only person he knew of who could inter-dimensional travel, wasn't even home.
The Sorcerer.
Stripes rallied around, and successfully found all six of the children, and just ran. He closed his eyes and screamed for his beloved, his only chance, in the hope, that no matter where in the Multiverse he was, Stripes's call would be heard.
"SUKKO!"
Dimension – 23691 – I'm Coming For You
Sukko finally landed, after vanishing from the Greater Cosmos. It was a beautiful summer's day, and immediately, the Sorcerer know he'd landed in the right dimension.
The main timeline.
But as he quickly vanished behind his cloak of invisibility, he was, unfortunately, seen. Quickly, word got back to the others that the Mighty Sorcerer had finally landed. Blaze giggled. He was of no threat then anyone here, but still Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and especially Saffie, were all wary. But smiling, the Princess knew exactly how to collar the Sorcerer, without causing problems. If Sukko had indeed been battling monsters, especially in the Greater Cosmos, Blaze knew he'd be absolutely gasping for just one thing.
Tea!
Time to trap him, of sorts. In Tails' house, everything was set up. His front door was left wide open, and a table was set up just inside, in the middle of the lounge. Then to everyone utter surprise, Blaze set up a full teapot of the best quality tea she could find, freshly brew, extremely hot tea, alone, and just left it. Then hiding to the side, they just waited. Blaze, Manic, Shads, Saffie, Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles, all incredibly curious about the mighty Sorcerer. But Sonic frowned.
"Will this work?" He wondered. Blaze nodded, finally on her own, having successfully managed to ditch Silver. That Hedgehog, had been her cling-on for weeks, but finally, he had a mission, in the future of the main timeline and that got him gone for a while. She smirked.
"Yes. Your brother absolutely adores his tea." She smiled. "Just make sure he doesn't brew it in your coffee pot." He added, to rather disgusted looks. Blaze then heaved. "Hey, we just need to talk to him, that's all, and I know from experience, that he can talk for Mobius over tea." She nodded, but others weren't convinced. Then she growled. "Have some faith, will you? Sukko will be utterly parched. He'll need that." She smiled, indicating the table. But Saffie wasn't convinced. He yet to see the mighty Sorcerer. He frowned.
"Do you really think he'll just waltz right in here, in full view of everyone?" He wondered. But Blaze just sighed.
"What? No." She grinned. "Sukko is the King of Stealth. He'll be behind his cloak of invisibility, moving utterly silently. They only way we'll know he's there, is when the tea suddenly starts disappearing." She beamed. Immediately, she got stared at. "Look, don't worry about it. I've had Sukko sneaking around my Palace, in the Sol Empire, for months. I know all his incredibly subtle tell-tale signs. When he arrives, I'll deal with him." She added, much to the agreement of everyone.
Blaze heaved. She felt the fear of the Sorcerer, on the others. It was bizarre, but it was understood. They didn't know him, only his power, and that was when, entirely on it's own, it was indeed very frightening. Blaze growled. They had to get past that. Sukko was better then that.
But as they watched, absolutely nothing could be seen, except suddenly, the tea in the teapot suddenly began to vanish. Everyone held their breath. Smirking hard, Blaze intensely watched the teapot hard, and finally spotted the tell tale sign of the mighty Sorcerer. She gentle walked upwards the table, and to what she thought was behind Sukko, and said something to him she'd not said, in a long while. She spoke rather loudly.
"A penny for your thoughts, Sorcerer?" She smiled. Sukko almost jumped out of his skin, revealing himself in the process, as Blaze moved up beside him, and giggled. He had indeed come for the tea. Normally, he wouldn't have taken anything without asking, but he was so thirsty, and this was the Fox's house, the Sorcerer just hoped he wouldn't mind. He been amazed and somewhat distracted at how similar everything was, to his own dimension, despite the fact that was an entirely different planet. He hadn't spotted that he'd been had, as it caused Sukko to swear in response, which happened last time, except it was very bad language now, was really rather blue. So much so, that Blaze just growled at him, and hard. He heaved and quickly calmed himself, going slightly red, he faced her. He panted
"Sorry." He apologised.
Everyone stared. Sukko was not that they were expecting, at all. Another Blue Hedgehog? Identical to the Blue Blur? What? So Sonic and Sukko were not only just twin brothers, but perfect clones of one another. Mirror image. But his long, black coat, brown boots, silver bracelets, and the enormous tattoos did make him look quite sinister. But his mannerisms, on the other hand, were the exact opposite. He was good, kind and gentle, and extremely powerful, and you could see in his eyes. Blaze was exactly right, despite his immense power, was incredibly down-to-earth. It really showed. But Blaze wasn't impressed.
"You will be. Don't do that again." She growled, promptly slapping him, yet again. "I thought you knew better." She hissed. Sukko growled at her.
"What? Can't I go a full day without being hit by you. Now please, just back off." He spat. He was still holding a mug of tea. The three quotes written on the mug, were of Sukko himself. On one side it read. 'Why have one annoying Blue Hedgehog, when you can two!' and the other side said. 'What do your call Eggman between a rock and a hard place? An Omelette.' and in the middle, it said. 'If you shove four million volts up the rear end of a Human, how far will he fly?' It was a very old mug, but it was still funny. Blaze just rolled her eyes. She was well aware of the stupid antics Sukko wrote on his mugs with his Magic.
Despite the sneakiness, he had a brilliant sense of humour, and was both a joy and a pain to work with. Incredibly professional and yet total whacky at the same time. Still panting while glaring at her, he just grabbed the teapot and then proceeded to fill to the brim and the promptly down, in very quick succession, four massive mugs of tea, emptying in the pot. He then shook out the mug, and stuffed it back into his quills. Blaze just stared.
"Er, Sukko. I haven't see you in nearly a fortnight." She frowned. Sukko glared her, almost not believing.
"What? I've only been gone barely ten hours." He gasped. Then he blinked staring into the distance, his eyes suddenly glowing a deep rich blue. Then he swore, yet again, which caused Blaze to shout at him. She was becoming very angry with him. But the Sorcerer just rounded on her, as his eyes returned to normal. He panted.
"Cosmic Acceleration." He gasped. "I hadn't realised." he breathed, putting a hand over his mouth. Blaze frowned.
"What? When you fighting that giant monster out in the Greater Cosmos?" She asked. Sukko just turned and stared at her. He frowned.
"How did you know about that?" He wondered. But Blaze looked over to Saffie, who'd desperately staring down the Sorcerer. She smiled.
"You were seen." She declared, indicating Saffie, But Sukko just smiled, staring him down. Suddenly, the realisation hit, as the might Sukko The Hedgehog, was not only alive, but real. Finally, the twin brother was home. The Sorcerer smirked.
"Hello, Sonikku." He beamed, As suddenly, Saffie and Sonic, just grabbed the Sukko, and buried themselves into his arms and coat. Suddenly, Kee Kee was top of them, the ghost sending chills straight down their spines. But it didn't matter, as there was purring and cuddles all round. With his twin by his side, or in this case, three of them, which did surprise him, it didn't matter. But then he looked at Blaze. But he was struggling to read her mind. His Telepathy had yet to tune itself to the planet. It had happened instantaneously in the Sol Empire, but it was significantly less Chaos Energy there to deal with. Sukko suspected there was actually more Chaos Energy, there then on his own planet. It was going to take time. He heaved.
"Blaze, what are you doing here? This is the main timeline of the Multiverse." He frowned. But Blaze just shrugged.
"I think me landing here, was entirely coincidental. Good fortune, I think. You mentioned Cosmic Acceleration?" She asked. Sukko, still panting, nodded.
"Yes, you were right. I was battling a great monster out in the Greater Cosmos." He admitted, as Tails suddenly produced the staff, Saffie had found. Sukko nodded. "Yeah, that's one of mine." He announced, to the stunned crowd. "I used it to focus Chaos Energy power shots to defeat the beast. I really didn't want to kill that thing, but I thought it was going to eat the Multiverse." He gulped, but then he got stared at. Silence as he grinned. "Ok, maybe not 'eat', but damage anyway." He added. "It seems that there are significant time differences between various parts of the Multiverse." He nodded. Suddenly, Saffie let go of him. He gulped.
"So that was you on the other side of that tear?" He gasped. Sukko nodded, now wondering where this was going. Suddenly, Tails blurted it out, unable to hold back the excitement.
"Are you the God Of The Cosmos?" He asked, to the now silenced lounge. But Sukko frowned.
"I beg your pardon?" He asked, extremely confused. Saffie then recounted to him, the prophecy he'd saw, back on that boulder. Sukko silently cursed to himself, and hard.
He'd been seen, somehow, during his original travels with Wisps, after his Ascension, before he returned home. The boulder was an eye witness account, not a prophecy. He thought he stayed in just one dimension at the time, but since learning of the Multiverse, it was entirely possible he could have inter-dimensionally traveled and not known. The Wisps were guiding him through all of space and time, that could have included the Greater Cosmos and the Multiverse. The Wisps were far more powerful then anyone knew, including himself. He indeed was the God Of The Cosmos, but right now, no one knew that, especially since he'd wiped the memories of the entire Sol Empire of that fact, including Blaze, and Sukko very much wanted it, for the moment, to stay that way.
He didn't want to be ogled at, constantly admired, hero worshiped or even challenged right now, so he played the whole thing down, mainly by making something up. He rolled his eyes, smirking.
"Hey, I'm good, but not that good. I take you already know that I have Magic." He hissed, staring Blaze down. He wasn't happy about that, as he normally tried to hide the Chaos Sorcery as much as possible, but there was nothing he could about it now. So he just continued. He heaved. "Alight. Relatively simple but extremely powerful casts such as Featherlight and Atmospheric can gain a person access to the Greater Cosmos for a short time. Like I said, I was gone for less then ten hours, and as for the conjuring and power shots, they were just part my arsenal, left over from fighting Eggman, back in my own dimension. As for destroying the monster, I really didn't want too, but I thought it was going to destroy the Multiverse, so I panicked. Stupid really, in hindsight, it was nowhere near powerful enough to actually do that, and my power shots hit true, because the beast may have been serious struggling with the lack of air in the vacuum of space." He heaved. Now Sukko was flat out lying. He never did those casts, they didn't exist, and he destroyed that perfectly healthy monster using his full blown Chaos Sorcery powers, but he wasn't going to admit that. Then he smiled at the Sapphire Dragon. "If I was really the God Of The Cosmos, do you honestly think I would have been caught so heavily off guard with the Cosmic Acceleration?" He asked.
Saffie heaved and shook his head. Then he looked back at the Sorcerer, and frowned.
"Cosmic Acceleration? I've been finding the same thing throughout my own travels of the Multiverse. Time inter-dimensional travelling can be only a matter of hours for me, and yet can be weeks, if not months, of time passing back here." He added. Sukko heaved. If was something he'd have to cater for, but then he smiled, but as deeply fascinated at this version of his twin. He was definitely a 'Sonic', but obviously not from this dimension. He grinned. "My name's Saffie. I was the one who found the staff and saw you destroy that monster. I had been chasing it for days. But the tear across the sky, in the dimension I was in, what was that?" He wondered. Sukko heaved.
"A tear in space time, as I witnessed the Multiverse shifted physically around on itself, on a central pivot point. In other words, here." He explain. "It seems that the Multiverse is bending back in, on itself." He heaved, then he stared at the hologram. "Is Saffie short for the Sapphire Dragon?" He asked, indicating outside to where Saffie's body was. Saffie gasped.
"Hey, how did you know?" He wondered. But Sukko, now having finally let go of Sonic, he just beamed.
"I've heard." He replied simply. Suddenly, he held his head, as finally the Telepathy's transition to the new dimension completed. Now finally, it settled. Suddenly, Sukko's mind, just exploded, as he could literally see and hear everyone and everything. It was deeply fascinating, but suddenly, a voice, in utter panic, came out of nowhere, and sliced through it all. It was so loud, that not only could the Sorcerer hear it, but everyone in that room.
"SUKKO!"
Amazed, Shads immediately recognised his own voice. But the Sorcerer cried.
"Stripes?" He stammered, to the surprise of everyone. Blaze stared. Sukko's tone of voice. His husband? She knew exactly who Stripes was. She heard Sukko using that name for the Ultimate Lifeform, from his own dimension, when he was was living in Sol Empire, for a while. She was gobsmacked, but she had to move past this, and fast. Suddenly, the alarm on Tails handheld, went nut. The indicator on the screen was going bonkers, at one particular version of Mobius that Sukko immediately saw it as his own.
Danger.
Tails squealed.
"Sukko, your home world is in trouble. We had to leave, now." He bellowed. The Sorcerer nodded, but suddenly, he stared off into the distance, his eyes glowing hard, as his mind, exploded again. But this time, he couldn't just see the entire dimension, but due to the main timeline location within the greater Multiverse, right in the centre of it, he saw everything. It was a telepathic technique he could only do, from the main timeline. Sukko mind's could now see all of it, and saw the danger on his home world for himself. He gasped.
"The Genesis Wave." He outright panicked, running straight for the front door, and away. As he did, he cried his heart out. "The kids!" He squealed, running full blast. Manic immediately ran after him, to the front door. He blinked.
"Whoa. Did he just say 'kids'?" He gasped, immediately staring down Blaze. The Princess suddenly realised that, within this incredible gathering, she was the one who knew the Sorcerer. Better then his own family. But they were all from different dimensions, of course, they didn't know each other. But Blaze herself was trying to process it. Kids plural verses kid singular. All she knew was that Sukko had been pregnant at some point. Was there more then one baby? She gasped.
People were trying to talk to her, through her deep distraction, but it was Shads's deep, dark tone, that woke her from her thoughts. He growled.
"Princess. Does the Sorcerer have offspring?" He demanded, to a now silenced lounge. Blaze looked up and gulped, hard.
She nodded.
They all just looked at each other, and then they all ran. Out of the door and straight after Sukko. Even in that brief encounter, they all realised that the Sorcerer was something incredibly special, and hearing that they were now children involved, it changed everything. For Blaze, all of sudden, it all made sense. Everything Sukko did, he was just protecting his family. He saved her kingdom, she had to return the favour, as the Titans banded together, chasing down the Sorcerer.
But Sukko didn't stop. While he was running, he charged up huge quantities of Magic and sent then straight to his hands. Concentrating hard, the inter-dimensional portal he was planning on generating, his eyes glowing blue and the bright blue luminescent vapour-like hue began to swirl. Suddenly, the Sorcerer turned the Magic on himself as the Illusionary lightning began to fall. Everyone jumped out of the way, transfixed as the watched the incredible Sorcerer go vivid pale blue, with light pouring from his heart, and his long black coat, now a stunning shimmering silver, his eyes a deep rich blue. But Sukko roaring hard, he stopped the Magic short from going full-on Super and then immediately poured it into hands, he threw them ahead of him, the Magic exploding from them. It whirled together into life creating a circular purple and white swirling, perfectly stable, inter-dimensional portal. It was easily enough power, especially traveling between between two versions of Mobius.
Sukko had done this before with a inter-dimensional portal generator from the Sol Empire. But he'd struggled. But one, the Sol Empire had little Chaos Energy to work with, there was significantly more here now, and two, Sukko had worked it out, without the inter-dimensional portal generator, with just pure Magic alone.
Sukko grabbed the sides of the portal and threw it sideways, making it significantly larger, just as the mighty Sapphire Dragon, in full wings, flew into the portal straight behind him. He fit easily, just as everyone else followed. No one hesitated, as they all dived for that portal. It was the first time Blaze has traveled through one, and it wasn't pleasant. The uncomfortable tossing and turning.
But Sukko aim was perfect, as they all landed, in his dimension.
He was home.
Dimension – 61021 – Time To Flee The Devil
But the entire planet was disintegrating. Tails screamed as bright red laser-like beams light just crashed down onto the planet from above, giving a whole place an eerie crimson glow. He cried terrified.
"Sukko's right. It is a Geneses Wave." He panicked. Horror rippled through the newcomers, as the Sorcerer just vanished into the haze that had now spread all around them. There were screams of fright and terror all around them, as Tails realised they couldn't stay here. He ran to Blaze, who was confused as to what was going on.
"Princess, we can't fight this. This is a grab and go mission. A Geneses Wave is the full deletion and rebuild of an entire dimension. Millions will dies, there's nothing we can do. We can't save everyone." He gulped, but Blaze gasped as she collared Tails. She frowned.
"But we can save some of them?" She wondered but Sonic just frowned.
"Yes, but where can we run too? My dimension's 'kind of' full." He wondered. Suddenly, Blaze had a brainwave. She bounced.
"My dimension." There she took command, as people were still stood around her. "Right, everyone spread out. Anyone you find, immediately bring them to me. I'll take them to the Sol Empire. Let's save as many as we can." She ordered. Immediately, everyone disbanded, but Blaze grabbed the Fox. He frowned, as she took her bindi off her forehead, and then fire up the Fire Tornado, which was not easy, in amongst all the chaos. She figured Sukko could portal back but she suspected the Fire Tornados would be less hassle. She still had the Sol Emeralds on her person, she always did. She tossed the bindi to Tails. She growled, indicating the tornado. "Take this and go on ahead. Show my people the bindi, they will help you. Prepare them for the arrival of refugees." She ordered. Immediately Tails nodded and vanished into the fire. With seconds, the Fire Tornado had died down and the Fox was gone.
But they didn't have long, as the planet started collapsing all around her, cracking and fracturing everywhere. Further lasers shot down from above, increasing in both number and intensity, as everyone fled for their lives. She saw a random family run towards her, but as she indicated herself, as a safe haven, a bright red laser landed on them and they all disintegrated to dust.
It was horrifying, as Blaze just ran through the mist, desperate to avoid being hit herself. But she was struggling, as suddenly, one of the almighty red laser-like beams almost hit her, but she was pushed out of the way, by something black, red and extremely fast. He stood right next to her. He significantly grown, now wearing a biker jacket, and strange markings in his hands, with a wedding band. Finally, Blaze smelt the Sorcerer's scent heavily on the Ultimate Lifeform. He was the one whom Sukko was married. Finally, everything was beginning to make sense. But his tearful eyes, she knew them. They had met before. His Ark was orbiting around her kingdom. Blaze blinked.
"Stripes?" She asked, as the Black Hedgehog nodded as desperately looked around. He heaved.
"I am so glad your here, but I lost the kids in this chaos." He sniffed. Blaze growled. Time for some truth. She hissed at him, grabbing him.
"You and Sukko. How many children do you have?" She asked, no longer caring about the logistics of it all. Stripes heaved.
"Six. He's had two with me, and four with his previous wife, Martha." He admitted. Blaze stared. What? Wife? Six? She heaved. Sukko had jumped the fence? Immediately, she shook off the enormous revelation, and the fact that Sukko had carried twins, and as she rounded on Stripes, letting him go. She growled.
"Look, we have to find them." She breathed as Stripes immediately agreed, but then she told him of the plan, and suddenly, Stripes grabbed her, and ran. Around a corner, and to a secluded spot, the Black Hedgehog stopped. He heaved.
"Fire up your Fire Tornado here, you should be safe for now. Hold it open as long as you can. I'll be back." He growled and with that he vanished, with a flash of light, teleporting away. Suddenly, within minutes, Stripes was back, with two people, each roughly grabbed by the arm. Blaze fired up the Fire Tornado, and despite their squeals, Stripes just roughly threw them in, and promptly vanished again. Within minutes, he was back, with two more people, whom again, he threw into the tornado. Stripes repeated this again and again, saving dozens of people. Suddenly, they came, the others, Saffie, Shads, Manic, following the light of her fire, in between the red laser-like beams, also with numerous survivors, ready to get off this wretched dimension.
Stipes just cried, but if Blaze was here, he had to believe Sukko was, and if anyone could find the kids, the Sorcerer could.
Sukko roared across the dimension, tearing through the place looking for someone in particular. But no matter where he went, and where he flew, he failed to find his beloved husband. Regardless, a certain someone followed everywhere he went. A certain Blue Blur. Sukko looked at him. He wasn't his 'Sonic'. He was already off planet, but the strong bond between them, as brothers was already forming. Together, they searched and found some old friends of the Sorcerer's. A family of Bears. Frank, Lisa and their baby son. They didn't remember the twins, but Sukko just grabbed Lisa and Frank's hands and using powerful telepathy, he perfectly restored their memories. Within minutes, there were hugs all round, as the Bear family, ran with Sonic back to Blaze and out.
She took some finding, but Sonic found the Blaze's Fire Tornado, and Frank, without a moments thought, just grabbed his wife and son, and threw everyone through it. Suddenly, he ran into Stripes, who was still rescuing people. The Blue Blur blinked, somewhat confused, seeing yet another version of the Ultimate Lifeform. But the Sorcerer's scent on him, gave him away. He squealed.
"Stripes?" He wondered. The Black Hedgehog nodded. Sonic gulped. "Sukko's looking for you." He reported, but Stripes, rounded on him. He growled.
"Tell him, I'm fine. Just find the kids." He ordered, of which Sonic immediately nodded, and took off at speed, a Sonic Boom behind him. But as he desperately searched, he lost his incredible twin. In fact, he lost all of the Titans, and as the planet began to literally break apart, he was forced to abandon everything, and flee for his life.
He ran, straight for Blaze, was desperately struggling to keep the Fire Tornado open. Stripes rescued the last of the stragglers, and then reluctantly throw himself in, nanoseconds before Blue Blur dived for the Fire Tornado, followed immediately by Blaze, herself. There as an almighty crash as the Genesis Wave successfully took out the dimension, just as Blaze left, and she avoided deletion by the narrowest of margins. The powerful wave clipped her Fire Tornado, as she inter-dimensional traveled, which sent her flying, but thankfully, she stayed on target, as she crash landed in the Sol Empire.
She was immediately surrounded by people, who got her to her feet. She was alright. That had taken it out of her, but she handle her Fire Tornado management much better this time. She was stronger now, but she outright gasped. There were hundreds of refugees, her plan had worked, but as she looked around, four very powerful individuals were inconspicuous by their absence.
The Titans were missing.
