My Gal - Epilogue

Nobody expects an E-vay Epilogue! (But shouldn't you? You know I love me some silly post-credits shenanigans)

When I was finishing the final chapter of My Gal, I thought it'd be funny to see how the Team Dynamic might change post-confession

( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡) Or was it all an excuse to draw more makeout sessions? Mwuahahaha. Don't try to pry them apart; it won't end well for you.

@multiisketch and I were brainstorming some more Sonic Boom Revisited goodness, and the subject of Sonic's dislike of clothing (specifically pants) came up.

Amy: I don't see what the big deal is. I mean, I wear clothes and I look fabulous. You should try it.

Sonic: No offense Amy, but I would look absolutely ridiculous in your clothes.

Knuckles: Yeah, you don't have the hips to pull it off.

*everyone stares*

Knuckles: What? We're all thinkin' it. I just had the guts to say it.

Hey Scourge! What's your favorite thing to do in the snow?

"I just get a bunch, turn it into balls and THROW 'EM AT PEOPLE!! I'm basically undefeated and-QUIT DISTRACTING ME I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!!"

"Everyone is already gone anyway." The Knuckles counterpart pointed out the lack of any blue hedgehogs, or weird lizard things.

"WHAT DO YA MEAN-"

...

"Crap. Well now we gotta find 'em I mean. We did say fight the fake. And now he and the rest of those creeps are running around on MY ISLAND!!"

thinking about how you can build sonic and friends families based off all the versions of them??? LIKE

way one. Boom sonic could be modern Sonic's older relative who's lazy and his name could be Boom

way two, Boom could be Sonic's irresponsible dad who honestly didn't mean to have kids in the first place but somehow ended up a single dad and Sonic just hates his dad/ has a bad relationship with him cause i don't think modern Sonic and Boom Sonic would get along very well he's like the most irresponsible version of sonic

Prime Sonic could be Sonic's younger relative name Prime or something, I like Prizmo for some reason it's like Prism he's another irresponsible version of Sonic who keeps messing things up but he has a good heart but he's also more responsible then Boom

Boom Knuckles could be Knuckles uncle, i like the idea of Dread being Knuckles dad cause Dread is really greedy person and that goes against Knuckles, i HC Dread and Knucks as brothers so you could see how interesting that as a family dynamic of fighting in the family could be, Knucks is all about freeing the resistance and wanting to live life while Dread wants to take just like Tikal's dad INTERESTING STORY Knuckles could be Knucks son or Dread son and the other is just trying to do what they think is best to raise the kid but it ended up dividing them further CAUSE DREAD LETS BE REAL is a liar he lies

do not quote me on all of this because i didn't finish season 3 of prime.

Boom Knuckles is very kind and not smart but he could be someone Knuckles could look to for soft supportive family member

I've already taken it upon myself to make Thorn Amy's "narrow minded" mother, like i know she gets better but her status with Prim is what makes Amy the way she is, Rusty Rose is a relative of Thorn who got taken a long time ago and robotized so she's stuck at the age she was when she was robotized and never to live normally, she's already half robot and half organic she can't go back this could be interesting for families

i have to think on everyones roles

[armed-saphire]

something so funny to me when a cartoonishly dumb character has actual life skills like they can cook and they have a stable job but theyre still cartoonishly stupid this post is about knuckles in sonic boom being able to drive btw

[super-un-stable]

Shout out to big red muscle guys that got super jacked in a reboot and everyone hated it even tho it slapped (and other)

Knuckles didn’t understand how this happened. How he got here, on this space ship. One minute, he was searching a cave he once saw Shadow go into to give him a gift, the next he accidentally pressed a button disguised as a purple crystal and woke up in a room with plenty of machinery and a big tube. There was a window behind the tube that Knuckles could see through, which was how he could tell he was in outer space above the Earth.

Ignoring the worry he felt earlier about his whereabouts, the red echidna suddenly remembered his original mission and looked around until his eyes landed on the small bundle of purple lavender that had fallen next to him. Knuckles picked it up and checked it for any signs of damage. He couldn’t have not a single leaf out of place!

Once he confirmed the plants were okay, he looked at the single door on the other side of the room and walked over to it, feeling a sudden readiness to explore and search. He put his gloved hand on the handle to open it and hopefully find Shadow on the other side.

Suddenly, an alarm went off and red lights began flashing in warning. Knuckles’ hands shot up to cover his ears and he cried out from the sting in his eardrums caused by the sudden loud noises. He unintentionally dropped the lavender in his hands and it fell next to him. An automated voice spoke over the blaring sounds and Knuckles began to feel like he could barely think as he squeezed his eyes shut, as if it would do something to stop.

WARNING: UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY

WARNING: UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY

WARNING: UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY

WARNING: UNAU--

The alarm was turned off and stopped almost as quickly as it started, giving Knuckles’ ears some relief, but that wasn’t the end of it. The lights were off completely, leaving him in near-total darkness besides the light outside. However, since the spaceship appeared to be stationed behind the Earth, in its shadow, there was no light shining into the room. Only making silhouettes of the windows and objects in front of them. Knuckles raised his hand up to his face, he couldn’t even see it!

He wasn’t exactly scared of the dark, but he was scared of hurting himself when he couldn’t see his own hand in front of his face. He then remembered something and his face lit up. Not literally, of course.”Oh, right!” He said. Knuckles reached into his quills and pulled out a glow stick, snapped it, then smiled when he could see his own glove again.”Ah, that’s better!” He said proudly.

He soon realized that he had dropped the flowers again and bent down.”Oh no!” He exclaimed as he moved the glow stick left and right. Knuckles’ quest to find the gift was successful once more and he stood back up, ready to continue to the next step. The red echidna wondered if the power was out, and if that was the case, maybe he could try again.

Slowly, he reached out and carefully gelt around until he found the doorknob and grabbed it again. Nothing happened. Knuckles opened the door and saw nothing but more darkness.

He looked into the darkness and held out the glow stick up like a torch in one hand and the gift carefully in the other, and marched confidently into the unknown area.

The glow stick barely lit up anything a few feet in front of him, but K would able to avoid something that came into the light.

So far, nothing. Then again, it’s only been a few seconds.

It felt like it’s been an hour since Knuckles started exploring. It was just door after door, hall after hall. Some of the halls were angled slightly to make turns, while others were straight.

The red echidna was starting to really feel uneasy being in the dark by himself. Knuckles wouldn’t have minded it if he was in a place he was familiar with, but he knew nothing of this place. The glow stick’s light had started fading a while back, and now it barely illuminated the gloved hand holding it.

Finally, he stopped to sit down against the wall. Just as Knuckles got comfortable, his stomach growled loudly. He hadn’t brought a snack. He looked in the direction he was headed.“Hello?” He called out, his voice echoing down the hall. After a few seconds, he sighed. Was he really alone? Man, this trip was turning from sweet to sour real quick.

“Why are you here?!” A familiar voice exclaimed from the darkness. Knuckles quickly recognized it as Shadow and turned to the direction he heard his voice from. He saw red shapes and a pair of red eyes staring at him, with electricity sparking between his wrists and ankles, and the golden rings he always wore.

Finally, something familiar.

“Shadow!!!” Knuckles exclaimed. He jumped to his feet and began speed walking towards Shadow with a smile forming on his face.”Thank goodness you’re here too, I thought I’d be wandering fore--“ He stopped speaking and slowed down to a stop when he noticed the dark hedgehog started backing away from him.”Hey, what are you doing?” Knuckles asked in confusion.

“It’s called “not letting any threat near me”, you fool.” Shadow snapped back. Knuckles stopped walking and held both hands up in a sort of surrendering gesture.”I promise, I’m not here to--“ The green glow stick slipped through his fingers and he tried to catch it, but it bounced between his hands before falling on the floor. Knuckles picked it up and held his hands up again, and he swore he heard a quiet, stifled laugh.”I’m not here to fight. I was just looking for you because I wanted to give you something.” He finished. Shadow kept glaring at him, obviously not trusting him. That much, Knuckles could tell in the bitch black darkness.

“No. Leave this place.” Shadow ordered. Knuckles rubbed the back of his neck with his free hand to try to calm himself.”I... don’t really know how I got here? Look, I just wanted to bring you these.” He showed Shadow the lavender flowers still in his hand. He couldn’t see it, but Shadow’s ears perked up in surprise and interest.

Just then, the glow stick flickered out and took away Knuckles’ main source of light.”Aw, man!” He pouted. Knuckles heard footsteps and looked back to see the glowing features on Shadow slowly coming closer. He would be lying if he said it wasn’t intimidating to see him walk forward in pitch darkness.

Wait...

“How can you see where you’re going? It’s so dark.” Knuckles asked. The dimly glowing hedgehog stopped right in front of him and glanced up at him.”I can see just fine. And even if I couldn’t, I can hear a lot.” He replied.

Shadow took the small bundle from his hand and looked at it. Knuckles couldn’t help but feel proud, even though the hedgehog hadn’t even thanked him yet, and that pride for bringing him something was evident in his expression for Shadow to see. He studied the flowers for a few more seconds before speaking.“Um... Thank you, but why did you do this? Is something happening? What’s the deal?” Shadow asked suspiciously.

“What? No, there’s no deal. I remembered how you mentioned that you like lavender when I showed you that field I like to stargaze at. I saw these at a flower shop with Amy and it reminded of that moment, so I thought you might like it. It’s called a”gift” for a reason.” He explained. A thought appeared in his mind, and he didn’t like it.”Have you never had a genuine gift before?! Has no one ever given you a gift without trying to get you to do something for them in return?!” He asked worryingly.

“What? No! It’s just... been a while, I guess.” Shadow replied, the last part coming out a bit quieter than he intended.

The hall was silent for a moment, until Knuckles’ stomach decided to interrupt it. K laughed nervously and rubbed the back of his neck.”Uh, you wouldn’t happen to know how to get me back so I can go have lunch, would you?” He asked. He felt something grab his hand and nearly pulled away, but quickly realized it was S hand.”Yes, but I have a faster alternative.” Shadow replied as he started walking. He pulled Knuckles along as he turned. He stumbled at first, but then was able to walk normally, guided by the red and yellow glow of the hedgehog and his rings.

After a few seconds of just the humming and whirring of machinery, Knuckles spoke up.”So, do you like them? The flowers? They’re you’re favorite, right?” He asked to confirm. Shadow didn’t reply right away, waiting a few minutes and occasionally glancing at the flowers in his hand. The echidna started to wonder if this was the wrong idea.

“...Yes... They’re... rather nice.” Shadow said quietly. Not a single hint of negativity was heard in his voice. In fact, he almost sounded a bit shy.

The rest of the walk was quiet, but the same couldn’t be said for Knuckles’ mind. His crush was holding his hand! And accepted his gift!

He wouldn’t admit it out loud (at least not yet), but ever since he first saw Shafow, he had started to develop a crush on him. His voice was so pleasant to listen to. Even if he was insulting him, he somehow sounded so nice! He was the most beautiful thing Knuckles had ever seen, and one of, if not the best fighter he knows. And when he found out about their shared interest in stargazing when he convinced Shadow to let him show him a nice spot to watch the night sky, he could’ve sworn that nothing would beat that feeling of falling in love even more.

Yes, Knuckles acknowledged that he probably shouldn’t feel this way about someone who had tried to destroy him and his friends, but he couldn’t help but wish that they all could be friends, and he and Shadow could be more.

Hopefully this is a good step in that direction.

Distant Twin (sneak peek)

Anti Mobius Sonic (later Scourge the hedgehog) has just escaped twice from No zone prison after Zonic rearrested him for stealing spare parts of giant borg (sonic super special issue 10) and vandalizing the wall "Sonic is here" in the dimension of Litigopolis where J.U.D.G.E. ruled (sonic super special issue 14). Unhearthened by his Anti boom counterpart and Anti St John, Anti Mobius Sonic returned to his dimension, overthrow Anti Sally and kicked out St John. Anti Freedom fighters weren't willing for his return but at least its better than under Anti St John. At this point, they are running out of ideas since they lose against Freedom Figther and Anti Boom Team Sonic. Hence, Anti Sally suggested that they invade Mirror Boom world, Alternate boom world and Sonic boom world as they are weaker dimension. Plus, the border between Sonic Boom world and Anti Sonic boom world is less guarded. Hence, Anti Freedom Fighter managed to invade Mirror Boom world and Alternate Boom world. As Anti Freedom fighter reached Sonic Boom world, they defeated Team Sonic easily even go as far as strangling the leader. All hope was lost until Team Sonic's villain counterpart from Anti Boom dimension defeated Anti Freedom Figther. Zonic arrested Anti Mobius Sonic to zone cop again however give strict warning to other member of Anti Freedom Figther and confiscated their weapons for 2 months. Afterward, Zonic legalized the Anti Boom dimension invasion of Anti Green Hills as reward for helping Sonic Boom world after all Anti Green Hills zone is always part of Anti Boom dimension. However, Zonic knows the main reason Anti Boom Team Sonic helped its non antiverse counterpart is to prevent Scourge from taking over his dimension.
