ReWrite AU; SA2 Basis: Hero Story Mode

>>> 13:27- Above the capital city.

There's always two sides of a story, where do our heroes fit in all this? Well, it starts with a G.U.N. Helicopter flying over the city.

A solider was communicating from it. "Sigma-Alpha heading due south over the city."

The pilot of the helicopter ensuring that they were in fact on route, when the communications tower sent a signal up. "This is control tower. We have you on radar. Report cargo status of captured hedgehog aboard, over!"

"That's a 10-4. Cargo secured and-" Suddenly, a loud commotion could be heard from behind the pilot, he gasped when he turned his head to look. "-What the?!"

The Communications Tower couldn't make out what the pilot was saying, asking the pilot to clarify what was going on. "The hedgehog's gone, she's taken out everyone aboard and-" Again, the pilot cut off again.

This was sending the communications tower into a panic. "What's wrong! Come in, over!" The communications tower tried once again to get through to the pilot.

They could make out the pilot's shock, faint orders to grab the Hedgehog in question, followed by a loud bang and lots of wind cutting in.

It was none other than Amy "Rascal" Rose, classified hero of the world, so what in the world was she doing being escorted on a G.U.N. Helicopter? Honestly, it wasn't the time to ponder that as she snapped off a giant piece of metal from the helicopter, before jumping off it. "Talk about low budget flights, no food or movies? You soldiers really know how to treat a lady, See ya!"

With that said, she jumped towards the city, landing with a rough bumpy start as she started to essentially snowboard through the city streets to escape G.U.N.

As she twisted and turned through the city, a big G.U.N. Truck on her tail, she could hear over the P.A. System "Attention all units. Suspect seen heading south. Block all major roads and capture the suspect."

"Great now I'm a suspect?" She said out loud to herself, truck still chasing behind her. But she easily outsmarted the soldiers and turned a corner to a tunnel that the truck had no way of fitting through. Sure enough, the truck crashed at the entrance, allowing her to escape. "Piece of cake!" She exclaimed, hopping off the metal piece and making a run for it through the tunnel.

The whole situation was very strange to her, why was G.U.N. treating her like some big time criminal? "Whatever is going on, I need to find Tails and Knuckles." She said to herself, she was going to need some backup if she was going to figure this out, and to make sure G.U.N. wouldn't try going after her friends next.

Eventually she reached the other side of the city, it was nighttime now, and despite making it this far, G.U.N. was still on her tail. Sending a giant mechanism labeled "Big Foot"

"When a Lady says no, she means no. Looks like I'll have to beat some sense into you!" Amy summoned her giant Piko Piko Hammer, and began to fight the robot mechanism.

Clearly G.U.N. didn't account for reaction time on that robot, because it was slow. By the time it would land or attempt to charge up, Amy had gotten some good swings in. Until finally, she jumped up and smashed the top of it like a game of whack a mole, completely demolishing the robot.

"Hah…hah..Not so tough now are you-" Amy's ears twitched, she heard rustling behind her. She jumped away from the direction it came from and was prepared to fight.

But whatever it was, sped on right by her, making her ears ring. "Ow! Who or what on earth was that? It..kinda looked like a hedgehog-"

Amy didn't get much time to ponder, as once the dust debris settled and when her ears stopped ringing, she was surrounded by multiple G.U.N. Soldiers. "Don't move! Stay where you are! Keep your hands up in the air."

"Urgh- Crap, not this again." Amy dreaded, putting her hands up in surrender.

>>> 11:08 Cave in "Green Hill"

Earlier in the day, Miles "Tails" Prower was in the middle of investigating some strange readings he picked up.

He had been in the area, conducting some research for a project he was working on, when his radar picked up a huge spike in energy not that far away from him. Hopping into his plane, the Tornado, he dropped what he was doing to go investigate the source of the energy spike. "If it's Eggman, then we're in trouble." He said to himself.

The readings had lead him to a cave near the edge of Green Hill, the cave looked like it was man made, with how smoothed out the walls were, there was no way this cave was natural occurring. "How long has this been here?" Tails asked to no one in particular, venturing deeper into the cave.

Eventually the cave was morphing from somewhat natural, to a metal and technological structure. Tails wondered who had made this cave, the technology was dated but still clearly in tact for whatever its purpose was.

When he reached the center of the cave, there was a bunch of wiring along the floor, leading up to a cryogenic chamber capsule, in front of it was a computer monitor, big red flashing words of "Warning" appearing on the monitor.

Tails descended from the Tornado, making his way to the monitor, as he began to tap away at the keyboard attached to it. "Clearly whoever designed this, didn't want whatever this is to be found. But it's no match for me, with its dated system." Tails exclaimed, as within a matter of minutes, he got into the system and deactivated its protocols.

Doing so, caused the chamber capsule to unfreeze its capture. Seeing this, Tails approached the capsule as it descended from a vertical position to a horizontal one. The front popped open, as a mist of ice bursted out. Tails couldn't see inside really with all the ice fog, until a purple gloved hand reached out to pull its owner up.

When the mysterious figure sat up, it revealed a cobalt blue hedgehog, with white streaks around his eyes and forehead that extended down to his quills. The same white was wrapped around his left arm and leg, in a descending swirl, while the right side of his limbs mimicked water almost. He had white markings around his mouth, and when he opened his eyes, Tails was greeted by vibrant emerald green eyes.

"Who are you?" The hedgehog asked, a somewhat deep yet eerily calm voice coming out of the mysterious hedgehog.

"I'm Tails, who are you? How did you get in there?" Tails asked back, helping the other out of the capsule. When the Hedgehog was out, and standing, Tails saw the other was very much taller than him.

"…Sonic. As for why I was in there- wait where am I? This isn't the ARK? Where's-? Kid what year is it?"

The ARK? That space colony was shut down 50 years ago. Just how long was Sonic in there? "It's 2001, why do you ask?" Before Tails could further question Sonic, the Hedgehog was gone faster than he could blink.

"I see the name is very fitting." Tails said, coughing up from the dust cloud Sonic had created when he took off. "If Sonic is from the ARK…what's he doing in Green Hill of all places?"

Tails didn't get much time to ponder the what if's and questions going on in his head, as the radio on the Tornado came alive, with a broadcast of how Amy had been arrested as the prime suspect in a ongoing investigation of a missing chaos emerald. "How did she get herself arrested?!?!"

>>> Back in the City

It was nighttime when Sonic entered the city, it was overwhelming, after being so long on the ARK, seeing just what was down here on the planet he, Shadow, and Maria had admired from a distance.

He raced through the city, buildings after buildings that seemed endless, until he stopped in front of one with a tv playing. It was broadcasting the news. "We interrupt this broadcast for an important newsflash. There has been a break-in at the federal-reserve bank today. Mysteriously, the only thing that was stolen was the Chaos Emerald." The news reporter explained. "According to eyewitnesses at the scene, the suspect has yet to be identified beyond the fact it is a hedgehog. With no signs of the world renowned hero, Amy "Rascal" Rose on the scene, fear and worry grasps at the citizens hearts and minds. The suspect was seen fleeing the scene, destroying the reserve's guard robots in his path. Stay tuned for more details."

When the camera cut to where they had their suspect "cornered", Sonic gasped. "Oh Chaos…Is it really..?" He couldn't believe his eyes, it felt like a trick, because on the screen was Shadow. It brought back memories from the ARK.

"Shadow, my boy come here for a second." A blurred image of a man spoke. "This is Project Sonic. My friend made him to be your equal. He will always be by your side, so can you promise me you'll be by his?"

The surrounding scientists were on edge, they all had feared there would be hostility between the two, that Shadow might attack Sonic feeling threatened by his existence, that he would see Sonic as inferior to himself.

But it was as Professor Gerald Robotnik had predicted. Shadow approached the other first, and held out his hand. "If you are my equal, then I swear on my life I will protect you."

That was Sonic's first interaction with Shadow back then. The interactions had only grown from there, from awkward acquaintances, to friends, to lovers. Oh how they fell in love, and enjoyed their time on the ARK. Playing with Maria, the Professor treating them like family, it was happy times.

Until G.U.N. Happened. Sonic remembers getting separated from the others. His own creator dragging him away in a different direction, he wanted to go with Shadow, with Maria, but his creator wasn't listening. Just shoved him into a capsule and then nothingness.

It seems G.U.N. was still at it, as those were the vehicles surrounding Shadow. "Tch- They have some nerve." Sonic muttered, as he took off in what he felt was the right direction.

He twisted and turned through the city, until he came upon some G.U.N. vehicles blocking his way. And they were heavily armed as they turned their attention to Sonic with hostility. "FREEZE! HANDS WHERE WE CAN SEE THEM!!" Yelled a soldier.

Sonic merely stared at the soldiers and heavy vehicles surrounding the exit. Doing a count of how many they're were. "Only about 20 of you? That's kinda sad don't you think?" He mocked.

"SILENCE! SURRENDER NOW!" The Soldier yelled again.

Sonic chuckled, before he took off at high speeds. The soldiers barely had time to blink as their heavy armor and weapons where destroyed or completely disassembled within a millisecond as Sonic returned to where he stood, fake yawning.

The soldier stared in horror at the being in front of him. "WHAT ARE YOU?!"

Again Sonic chuckled, the white markings on his cheeks beginning to slightly glow. "I'm Project Sonic, and you have the key to what I want. So tell me, where is Project Shadow?" Sonic asked with a sickly sweet smile, but the soldiers weren't budging. "No answer? Alright then, honestly though your resistance is PATHETIC!!!" Suddenly, Sonic's voice increased in intensity, a shockwave of energy ringing through the surrounding area as the soldiers all screamed from how badly the screech's intensity was. The glass in the surrounding buildings shattered, as the vibration crushed any remaining equipment they had before crushing the soldiers under its intensity.

The exit went from being heavily guarded to nothing, as Sonic simply cleared his throat. "I tried to be nice, now we do this the hard way." With that Sonic was off, he didn't have time to waste, he had to know if what he saw on that news broadcast was true.

Yet clearly G.U.N. had no intention of letting him through that easily, the pathway to the Bridge was completely cluttered by their machinery and vehicles. Sure, his screech could easily take care of them, but Sonic hasn't been conscious that long, so he only got four screeches in before they had him cornered.

Sonic was dizzy, his vision was slightly blurry due to using his screech while not fully conscious, the white markings on his cheek that mimic the symbol used for volume was beginning to lose the glow, if he kept it up he'll surely overdo it, which will be indicated by the two markings each side becoming three markings.

Honestly he was prepared to push his limits when suddenly-- "CHAOS CONTROL!!" --a familiar voice, a powerful surge of chaos energy shook through the ground, causing an earthquake…no it shattered the ground beneath the soldiers and they all fell into the depths, a painful descent as the Chaos Energy sent pure electrocutions throughout them and their machinery.

A horrifying display of power, yet one Sonic knew all too well. When the cloud of debris settled, Sonic coughing and swatting away some the flew towards him, when he looked up, he gasped, eyes going wide, because standing in front of him…

Was Shadow, panting from such use of his strength, but it was Shadow. He was okay, he had made it off the ARK. Sonic didn't think twice about hugging the other from behind. "I'm not dreaming right? It's really you..?" Sonic asked.

He felt the other turn around and hug him back, those hands running through his quills again, holding him tight, the scent of lavender flooding his senses, the warmth that radiated from Shadow's body, his body practically melted into Shadow's hold. "I thought I lost you…" Shadow whispered into Sonic's ear.

"I thought the same." Sonic responded. "Waking up all alone in that cave. Shadow, what's going on?" Sonic asked.

"I'll explain later back on the ARK. It's not safe here." Shadow answered, as the two stood up, grabbing Sonic's hand and leading him to the ARK, away from all this mess in the city.

>>> Central Control Room: ARK, an hour before Eggman's arrival.

"So this Ivo Robotnik, is he truly related to Professor Gerald?" Sonic asked Shadow, the two were back on the ARK. Shadow had given Sonic a run down of what happened on his end, from Maria saving him at the cost of her life, to being awoken 50 years later by Eggman.

Honestly it hurt to hear that G.U.N. was truly that cruel and could not spare Maria, she was innocent in all this and they had no mercy for her. Sonic had nothing but fond memories of Maria, she was like a sister.

"He is, not only did he know exactly how to access the ARK and its password, but I did my research. The Professor was his grandfather." Shadow explained. "He clearly knew about Project Shadow but not what form I took when he had freed me. Mistaken me for some friend of a enemy of his I presume."

"What about me?" Sonic followed up, back on the ARK all those years ago, they kept Sonic's files pretty close to Shadow's. Two halves of a whole after all, so it was only natural that if Dr. Robotnik found out about Shadow, that he discovered Project Sonic.

Shadow gently cupped Sonic's cheek, the other leaning into his touch. "He didn't show any signs he knew of your existence. When I returned here, I immediately checked all files that remained, the ones locked behind the password. All and any files pertaining to you were gone." Shadow elaborated, Sonic couldn't believe they were wiped clean like that. Was it his creator's doing? "But this is good. The less who know the better."

"What does that mean exactly?" Sonic questioned, an eyebrow raised in Shadow's direction.

"G.U.N. shutdown the ARK because of us, our existence. But only my files remain, you're safer this way. I can protect you better this way." Shadow answered, Sonic went from skeptical to touched. Gently, he kissed the other.

"I can handle myself, but it's sweet how you're thinking about me and my safety." Sonic admitted. "I'll be your little secret the world will never expect, you're equal made just for you."

Shadow kissed Sonic's forehead. "We were made of each other, equals but unique. If we go down then we go down together, isn't that what we always said?"

The two didn't get to dwell long on the shared sentiment, as the entrance to the central control room opened, letting in a confused Eggman who demanded answers from Shadow.

>>> 11:56 Prison Island: Nearby airspace

"There's no mistake about it, this must be the island. It's a secret military base that is reinforced and super strong! It's called Prison Island. I heard the news about it on satellite TV. I still can't believe that Amy would destroy the military buildings or rob the bank! Wait for me, OK Amy! I'm on my way!" Tails exclaimed as he made his way down to the island.

Looking down below, he could see Eggman was already out and about on the island.

"What? Eggman is here? He must have heard about Amy getting arrested, I need to get to her first before he does! Tornado, Transform!" He yelled, the blue propeller plane transforming the closer got to the ground, before morphing into a vehicle that could walk around the area while staying on the offensive.

Tails quickly made his way through one of the side entrances, using the scanner that was hooked up to the tornado to track down just where Amy was, it looked like they had her somewhere secure. "Looks like I'll need a key card before I can get her out." Tails said, suddenly the alarms were going off in the building and multiple machines came bursting out from all sides.

That must have been Eggman's doing, but Tails wouldn't give up here, he bulldozed his way through the army of machinery and weaponry that G.U.N. kept sending his way, and luckily one had the key card he was looking for.

After a few more machinery popping up, he had finally made it to the cell Amy was being kept in. The sound of the tornado caused her ears to perk and she turned to face where it was coming from. "Tails?" She questioned.

"Keep your voice down Amy, I'm here to recuse you." Tails explained, hopping out and down from the Tornado to have easier access to the lock on the cell.

"How did find out I was here?" Amy asked, as Tails pulled out the keycard, sliding it through the locking mechanism, the internal mechanism of the lock rotating the cell door open.

"You were all over the news, how could I not find out? Hop on, Eggman is here so he must be up to no good!" Tails said, jumping back onto the tornado, Amy doing the same, hopping onto one of the wings and holding onto it.

"I wouldn't have been caught if that blue hedgehog didn't distract me in the city!" Amy exclaimed, recalling how he sped by her and the next moment she was surrounded by G.U.N.

"Blue hedgehog…? You mean Sonic?" Tails asked.

"You know him, Tails?" Amy questioned back.

"Not know him per say, but I did meet him, it's a long story. You don't think he's here with Eggman do you?" Tails pondered.

"I hope not, but with Eggman, anything is possible, let's go!"

>>> Back on the airspace

Unfortunately, when the two spilt up on the airspace to try to find Eggman, Amy saw that this "Sonic" was indeed with Eggman, as the two were discussing something before Eggman was trying to make a run for it.

Well Amy wasn't about to let that slide, as she threw her hammer towards him from behind, the only reason it didn't hit him was because Sonic reacted much quicker and kicked it away mid air.

"I knew you were behind this, Eggman!" She exclaimed, summoning her hammer back and got into a defensive position. "What are you doing here on a military base?!" She demanded, clearly he was up to no good as usual, but never to this extent.

"I'm the one who should be asking that question! Never mind that, I have more important matters to attend to, she's all yours Sonic, don't let me down." Eggman said, taking off in the opposite direction of the two.

"Hey! Where do you think you're going?!" Amy yelled, as she tried to give chase after Eggman, but was stopped by Sonic cutting in front of her. "What the- he's so fast…" Amy whispered in awe at the blue hedgehog's speed.

"That hammer of yours in no joke, used some seriously heavy materials for it. I hope you can put up a good fight." Sonic said, before taking off at his high speeds, attacking Amy from every side.

Amy was quick with her reactions, while she had trouble keeping her eyes on the blue blur, she could sense when he stopped to attack and she could then block him with her hammer. "How are you so fast?!" She questioned, still blocking his onslaught of attacks.

"Sonic is my name, which should be self explanatory of why I'm so fast. Enough talk." Sonic bluntly stated, before continuing to attack Amy. He was purposely trying to keep her from being able to properly dodge or attack.

It was sooner than later that he kicked her hammer out of her hands, and had his hand at her throat, prepared to stab through if she tried anything funny. "You're very impressive, only one other can block my speed attacks." He praised.

"Why?" Amy asked, panting from the constant attacks. "Why are you working with Eggman of all people? Don't you know he's the bad guy? And why don't you kill me?"

The question made Sonic hesitate, a barely visible startle came out of him, but Amy saw the way his eyes shook. "My orders were to keep you at bay, not kill you." Sonic answered, it was as simple as that.

But that didn't answer Amy's other question. The more she looked at Sonic, the more she could tell, feel, that he wasn't a bad guy. Sure he was rough around the edges, but she could sense a kind heart underneath that rough exterior. Those emerald green eyes held many secrets in them, but she could read his soul, he was conflicted more than anything else. "You don't look like a bad guy, so why are you helping one?" She asked again.

This caused Sonic to push his hand closer to her throat, his eyes widening as rage bubbled up within him. "I'm not helping HIM. Don't compare me to the likes of him." Sonic spat, clearly she hit a nerve there. But if he isn't helping Eggman like he claims then who?

Amy likes to think she was gifted with a sixth sense, that allows her to read and understand others, even they are technically her enemies. " --deep breath-- Why don't you help me stop him? You really look like you have a kind heart, so why not team up and defeat Eggman together?" She asked, slowly offering her hand to the other, a gentle smile on her face.

Sonic clearly didn't expect this. He dropped his hand from where he had it pointed at her neck, her kindness reminded him of someone familiar…her smile, it was like Maria's.

"I see why you're the hero of this world, your compassion is boundless." He said, Amy taken aback by the statement.

"I just believe everyone deserves a second chance if they are willing to try." She responded, watching as Sonic stared down at her hand, slowly reaching towards it.

"It's been years since I felt this level of compassion from someone like you." For a moment, it looked like Sonic considering the offer, taking her hand, but he smacked it away. Surprising the other. "I'm sorry, but you may not show my equal the same compassion. I will not fall victim to your tricks and deceptions."

Sonic jumped back, and was prepared to attack, when a vehicle suddenly landed between them. It was the twin tailed fox Eggman had mentioned, Tails.

"Boy, am I glad to see you! You're timing couldn't be more perfect Tails!" Amy exclaimed, relief that Tails showed up in the knick of time.

Sonic had a better look at Tails now compared to back in that cave where he was barely conscious. The fox wore a technical visor on his left eye, along with a dark blue jacket, he could also make out a mechanical right arm. "You're the one that was impatient and couldn't wait for my map to load in." Tails said sarcastically. Amy letting out a nervous laugh, as she shrugged in response to Tails. "Leave him to me Amy, you go after Eggman!"

"Roger that Tails." Amy took off after that, grabbing her hammer and leaving the mysterious hedgehog to Tails.

"You must be a friend of hers, I presume?" Sonic questioned.

"You would be correct, Sonic. Just like you have no intentions of letting harm come to this mysterious equal, I have no intentions of letting anyone hurt Amy!" Tails yelled.

Sonic sensed a fight coming, he could see in the fox's eyes that he saw Amy as a big sister figure, he knew the timer must be cutting it close, so instead of a fight, he returned to a more relaxed demeanor.

This confused Tails. "Are you not going to fight?" He asked the other.

"I respect your determination, you remind me of how someone used to be in the past. Our fight would be pointless, besides…" Sonic stretched his limbs, warming up to make a run for it. "Multiple bombs have been planted on this island, I'd say you have about 15 minutes to get yourself and her off the island before you go with it." And with that, Sonic took off, leaving a confused Tails behind.

But Tails didn't get to ponder what just happened, he had to find Amy quickly before this island went poof!

>>> In the White Jungle

"Shoot, where did Eggman go?" Amy questioned, as she ran through the jungle in pursuit of Eggman, but he must have gotten away because he was no where in sight.

As she continued running, she came upon a clearing and she could make out a figure in the trees, when she got closer she saw it wasn't Sonic but a different hedgehog.

This one was black with red stripes, they almost looked like scales, and his tail was long like a snake, spikes running along and down it. Just looking at him, it was clear he wasn't fully a hedgehog nor someone to mess with. Yet, could this have been who Sonic was talking about? "Are you Sonic's friend? The one he called his equal?" She asked, but was on the defensive, prepared to attack. Unlike Sonic, who seemed conflicted in his attacks, this one looked fully ready to kill without hesitation.

"You dare speak of him? Hah! You think you're worthy enough to speak of him?" Shadow spoke.

"Wow you're very egotistical for a fake hedgehog!" Amy retorted.

"Faker? I think you're the fake hedgehog around here." Shadow said, a smirk on his face.

"Well then, why don't you come down here and say it to my face!" Amy yelled.

Shadow jumped down to the ground. "If you insist." With that said, the two began to duke it out.

Shadow had to give it to Amy, she was a very skilled fighter. That hammer of hers was extremely heavy to the average person, but she wielded it like it was nothing, as she swung it with skill and grace at Shadow.

But Shadow was quicker, dodging each swing like nothing. He didn't have time for this, so with a swift kick, he knocked the hammer out of Amy's hands, before spin dashing towards her when she was distracted.

Amy was caught between a rock and hard place, the two hedgehogs panting from their fight. Suddenly, Shadow's radio starts to beep. It was the doctor again. "Shadow?! What are you doing?! Get back here right now before the island blows up with you on it!"

"I'm sorry- Blows up?!" Amy exclaimed in shock. Shadow looked at her, but then jumps back and runs off.

"I gotta find Tails and get out of here!" Amy exclaimed, making a run for it as well. Luckily Tails was not that far away from her, as she jumped onto the Tornado and told Tails to get them off island.

They had just barely managed to avoid getting blown up with the island.

>>> 17:30: In an mountainous region

While all this was going on, Knuckles had been in a race for the pieces to the Master Emerald, he had to hurry up and find them before that bat girl did.

His search for the missing pieces brought him to this mountain region, that the best way he could describe the atmosphere, it felt like it was haunted. "This place sure feels haunted... There's no time to lose! I have to hurry and find that Master Emerald!" Knuckles said, beginning to search around the creepy mountain region.

He is certain that, Rouge was it? Needed a radar of sorts to track down the emerald pieces, but that wasn't the case for the echidna. Because he was a descendant of Tikal, he had a direct connection to the Master Emerald, thus he just needed to explore around.

The stronger the feeling of energy felt within him, the closer he was to a piece of the Master Emerald. There were a few hiccups here and there, Eggman's tech running amok, and actual ghosts popping up from nowhere and trying to make things harder for Knuckles, but that didn't stop him.

Soon he collected three more pieces of the Master Emerald, feeling more relieved that the collection of pieces was growing. He was prepared to leave this haunted mountain top, when he felt another energy surge, coming from within the mine that was on the next mountain. "Guess I'm not through with this place yet." He said, gliding over the the entrance of the mines, and began to make his descent.

>>> 20:21 Mountainous region: Mine

Upon entering the innermost section of the mines, Knuckles saw multiple problems and set backs. "Hmm, I didn't expect the inside of the mines to be like this! This is going to be tougher than I thought!" He sighed, as since the mine was abandoned, it was a mess, some areas were completely flooded, and of course those damn ghosts were down here too.

He had his work cut out for him, but he wasn't about to call it quits now, the Master Emerald was at stake here.

>>> 9:03 In the capital city

Amy and Tails were currently hiding in a alleyway of the city, the whole place was crawling with cops and G.U.N. soldiers, making it near impossible for the two to get through the city.

This was beginning to annoy Amy. "Sheesh! This place is crawling with a lot of police around when you don't need them! Tails, anything yet? Why is Eggman after the chaos emeralds again?" She asked the fox who was typing away at the computer module in the Tornado that was now in walking mode.

"For some reason, I'm not getting a signal from the six remaining Chaos Emeralds... Maybe Eggman took the Emeralds into outer space." Tails answered.

"Outer Space? What could he want that's all the way up there?" Amy pondered, trying to figure out what was going through Eggman's head, she tried doing a tarot reading but the situation was too messy within it self for Amy to properly understand anything.

Suddenly, a manhole in front of them began moving about, before flying open. Amy had her hammer at the ready, until a familiar head of red fur popped up. "Hey guys, long time no see! I must have got lost in the mines! Looking for the Master Emerald pieces was tougher than I thought it would be. Where are we anyway?" Knuckles said, a smile on his face.

"Knuckles!" Amy happily exclaimed, putting her hammer away and quickly began to pull the echidna up from the manhole.

"Hey, where are you going?" He asked Amy.

"Move aside Knuckles! It's an emergency!" Amy responded.

It was truth, after all Eggman had the whole planet on a timer with that example he made of the moon. The computer module on the Tornado went off. "I managed to find the transcripts between Eggman and the President in the government computer. I'm following the President's limo right now! If we can get into the limo, we can trace the call to find Eggman!" Tails explained.

Amy nodded in response back. "We got no time to waste, let's go guys!"

Unbeknownst to the three, they were being eavesdropped on, by Sonic. Part of his artificial creation perks, was heightened senses, more specifically his hearing. He had been hiding out across the street from the three, but could hear them perfectly as if he was standing next to them. "They are determined to stop Robotnik." Sonic muttered to himself as he watched the three split up to catch up with that limo.

He wondered why they were so determined. Why they still had hope of stopping any of this, was that what made them heroes of this planet? He wondered why Robotnik was almost like a villain in this world, when he thinks back to the Professor, to Maria, he wonders how in the world was Ivo Robotnik related to them.

It was a lot of questions running through his head. "Maybe a run will clear my head." Sonic said to himself, before taking off. He started in the city, and raced through until he reached a coast line, completely opposite of where the city sat.

The calm waves, the sounds of nature, the blue sky, the smell of the ocean. These were things Maria had dreamed of seeing. "This is what you wanted to see, Maria…so why are we destroying it?" It was a question Sonic had on his mind the longest, but refused to ask, he clutched his right fist above where his heart was, as he gritted his teeth.

"I don't know what happened in your final moments. I know it was you who saved Shadow, but it cost you your life. I don't know what happened to the Professor, to my creator, I don't know which side is in the right and who is in the wrong…" The blue hedgehog vented to the open ocean, looking out onto the horizon, as the wind blew through his quills, his eyes becoming more disinterested.

"No…whether who's right or wrong isn't my problem. As long as I have Shadow, then that's all that matters." And Sonic was gone once again.

>>> In the President's limo driving through the city

"Mr. President, reports show that since the incident, three hours ago, the country is in turmoil. Our financial communities are impacted and our satellite communications are down. An emergency meeting has been called. Mr. President, this is a national crisis." The secretary on board the limo spoke.

The president in question remained unfazed, as he kept his attention on the monitor in front of him. "Spare me the details. Exactly what is it you want? Dr. Eggman?" He questioned.

Maniacal laughter could be heard from the video monitor. "Hahahaha! Well, let's just get down to business then, shall we Mr. President? I won't bore you with all the details since I know you are a very busy man. Mr. President, my demands are quite simple. Surrender to the Eggman Empire and make no attempts to resist! Otherwise…" The Doctor trailed off in suspense.

"Otherwise?" The President further questioned.

"Otherwise your country will cease to exist! You have 24 hours to give me your answer!" Eggman exclaimed.

"Like that's going to happen!" Spoke an familiar voice, the two in the limo were looking around before Amy rose jumped in from the moon roof of the limo, Tails right behind her, making his way to the monitor.

"You- YOU TWO JUST DON'T KNOW WHEN TO QU-" Eggman got cut off my Tails disconnecting the line.

"Eggman Empire, he's still on about that???" Amy questioned.

"What the heck is going on here?" The President demanded an answer, before realizing just what Tails did with the monitor. "Oh, no... What did you do?!"

"Don't worry, Mr. President, everything is under control. Just leave it to us! Got it Tails?" Amy said. Tails turned to face them with a disk drive in his hand, he looked pretty confident about it too.

"I got it! He's transmitting from the space colony ARK!" Tails exclaimed.

"OK! Let's move it!" Amy then took off from the way she came in, Tails following after and leaving a confused secretary and president behind.

The president wanted answers but it would have to wait, as they were now getting a call from their agent they sent out.

>>> 13:04 Desert area

The gang now stood in front of a pyramid. Amy was confused as to why they were here. "Are you sure that's where he is?" She asked.

Knuckles nodded in response, pointing in the direction of the pyramid's side. "I saw Eggman go inside the pyramid and more importantly, I saw that bat girl go inside with him as well. You saw those two hedgehogs as well, right?"

Amy began stretching her limbs. "We should be able to get into outer space from there! I don't know what's this space colony is all about but I'll find and destroy that cannon... and then kick their imperial butts!" She exclaimed, Knuckles joining in, and Tails saying he would go find the way into the pyramid.

And with that, the team was off.

>>> ARK: Abandoned room

Amongst the many rooms aboard the ARK, there was one in the farthest corner on the north side, it was empty and barren, minus a few nicknacks here and there.

It was where Sonic liked to come and hide away at, where he would avoid his creator, along with all the other scientists aboard the ARK at the time, no one knew this was his hiding spot except for one.

As Sonic stood in front of the window, looking down at the blue marble like planet, lost in his thoughts, the door opened. "I had a feeling this is where you were." A voice all too familiar, as the door shut behind him, warm arms wrapping themselves around Sonic's waist, as the one in question buried his face into Sonic's neck. "What's on your mind, Mi Amor?" Shadow asked.

"I went down there again, to the coastline. Pictures did it no justice, the view, the scent, the feeling of the wind, truly breathtaking…" Sonic admitted, still keeping his eyes glued on the planet that was about to be destroyed in a few more hours.

He remembers the promise he made to Maria, the promise of experiencing all that planet had to offer considering Sonic genetics originated from it, a clear opposite of the promise Shadow made. And having experience some of the beauty its nature could offer, he questioned if this truly was the right thing to do.

It hurt his heart because, this planet is the reason why Maria never got to experience its beauty in the first place. How if it had its way, they would get rid of Shadow as well. Sonic lost a lot that day as well, he lost a family, he couldn't bear to think what he would do if he lost his lover as well.

The thoughts running through Sonic's mind must have been obvious on his face, as he jumped slightly when he felt a kiss on the backside of his neck, that was visible under his inhibitor. "I see it in your eyes, you're conflicted." Shadow began, placing more kisses around the side of Sonic's neck. "I do this, because of the promise I made to Maria, to you, but all you need to do is say the word, and this all stops now." Shadow said, no hidden messages in his words like that Robotnik.

Just plain and simple, if Sonic said to stop all this, then this would stop. Sonic turned around in Shadow's arms, now face to face with the other, as emerald green met blood orange eyes. Sonic's hand reaching up to cup Shadow's cheek, the other leaning into his touch while maintaining eye contact.

It would have been easy to say yes, to say for this to stop, for him and Shadow find some corner on that planet where no one could find them. But it wasn't that easy, now knowing that Rouge was a double agent for G.U.N. he knew that even if they did stop, they would still come after Shadow.

Again, Sonic's thoughts and emotions must have been obvious, as Shadow reached up and wiped a tear away that had fallen down Sonic's cheek. "Even if we stop now, it doesn't change the fact that G.U.N. is after you, and whether you want to admit it or not, after me as well. They have already taken so much from us…" Sonic had subconsciously looked away while talking, but Shadow simply pulled his head in closer. "I couldn't bear it if they took you away from me too…"

"They won't get the chance, the image of their machines surrounding you still haunts my mind. If they wish to become my enemy then so be it, I'll rip their planet's very core out with my bare hands, I'll gladly suffer the worst pain imaginable before I let them get anywhere near you." Shadow confessed, his eyes holding nothing but seriousness and his heart that beat for Sonic.

Call it cruel irony, that one thing the other didn't want, is the thing they would go through before they let the other get hurt. Sonic remembers the words that were told to him on the daily back then."You were made to be Project Shadow's failsafe. Project Shadow is the solution, the ultimate goal." Yet, Sonic believes what the Professor told him is more true.

"You are his equal, his other half. Which means he is yours. Such a bond is not a one way street, Sonic. It goes both ways, and that, is something more powerful than you can ever imagine."

Sonic believes he's finally starting to understand what the Professor meant all those years ago, as he felt overwhelmed with Shadow's love, yet despite the overwhelming feeling, it wasn't enough. "How much time do we have before those two get back?" He suddenly asked the other.

"We have an hour or two at best, that Amy and her friends will probably have them busy for a while." Shadow responded, not needing any more indication of where Sonic was going with this. Sure enough-

"Then kiss me already."

Shadow didn't need to be told twice, pulling Sonic in close, closing what little distance was between them, and kissed him. A passion and desired filled kiss, as he leaned in more, as Sonic fell back onto the bed behind him. Shadow pinning the other down beneath him, devouring the soft moans that came from Sonic, his hand finding its way into Sonic's while the other hand made its way lower, much lower.

They both knew they didn't have a lot of time, but for at least an hour or so, Shadow could shower his beloved in all his love and undivided attention as Sonic deserved.

>>> Back at the Pyramid

It wasn't easy clearing through the base Eggman had set up, twists and turns, traps at every turn, and not to mention there were ghosts here too.

It was nauseating trying to navigate through the confusing mess, but eventually the three came upon a locked door. "Looks like we're heading toward the center of the base." Said Tails, getting a stronger signal of sorts the closer they got to the door to explain it.

"That egghead sure loves mechanical things doesn't he? I bet he has one or two spaceships lying around somewhere." Spoke Amy, who was trying to plan out how they would reach Eggman on the ARK.

"Well we won't get much farther at this rate, the door is locked. We need a key to get in there." Tails explained, who had tried to see if he could hack into the system but it was no use, it needed a key.

"No problem, we can find it, right Knuckles?" Amy patted Knuckles on the back.

"What? Why do I have to find the key?" Responded a confused Knuckles, how did he get roped into a search party.

"We're counting on you Knuckles! The world's greatest treasure hunter!" Amy praised the other, who simply sighed before going to search for the key.

The three once again split up to get the searching down faster, Knuckles doesn't know if it was luck or a coincidence that the key was in the area he had been searching, but he wasn't about to complain. This was one step closer to the Master Emerald.

As he grabbed the key and was about to turn back, he heard ominous laughter behind him. "What the- who's there?" He turned around once more and saw a giant ghost, way bigger than the ones they had stumbled upon.

"A ghost? You must be the boss then. Outta my way, I don't have time for this!" Knuckles exclaimed, jumping into battle. While the ghost had its size, and fire breathing apparently, it wasn't smart enough to keep up with what Knuckles was up to, has the echidna was purposely avoiding it and opening up all the skylights that were in the pyramid. Eventually causing the ghost to fade back away.

"Guess ghost hunting is now in my job description." Knuckles said, catching his breath from that game of chase, before returning back to Amy and Tails.

Their searches came up empty handed, but seeing Knuckles with the key in hand made them ecstatic. "Way to go Knuckles!" Amy cheered.

"Let's get going now." Tails spoke.

"You little thieves! Did you really think you could get out of here alive?" That voice-

All three turned around to see the locked entrance way open up, to reveal Eggman in his egg mobile, waving at them with a smug expression. Amy pulled out her hammer, gesturing to Eggman to come at her. "Want another butt kicking from me, Eggman?" Amy said, a smile of her own.

"Amy wait-" Tails began.

"You two go on ahead, I'll catch up." Amy told them, the two nodded before taking off.

"This time, I'll take your lives as well as the Chaos Emerald! I call on you to destroy these pests. Come out my servant!" Eggman exclaimed, as the ground began to shake.

The ground shook as Eggman summoned a giant Egg Golem, as it ascended from the center of the pyramid's ground.

"Gotta hand it to you Eggman, but that's just a giant piece of rock ready for my hammer!" Amy yelled, as it looks down at her. The Egg Golem easily towers over the room.

"Now go… and squash that thorn of a hedgehog, Amy!" Eggman commanded his golem. Watching as the battle commenced. This was it, this is where he gets his final victory against Amy and her pesky friends.

But Amy was smart, as she easily dodged the golems attacks, climbing up it from its blind spots, before she jumped at the Egg Golem's Head, smashing her hammer on top of its head, eventually destroying the device that was on top of it. "Ha! Home run!" She proclaimed victoriously, as the device began to self destruct.

The Egg Golem swivels its head around several time,. Amy taking her leave to catch up with her friends, leaving Eggman to deal with the fallout of his failed attempt.

While Eggman was dealing with the now freed Golem. The pyramid's top opens up, revealing a large rocket. An automatic voice could heard once the rocket was in place. "Green light for launch! Primary engine ignition on! Beginning lift-off countdown!" In the distance, Amy could be seen running onto the rocket. " 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Shuttle lift-off!"

And just like that, the rocket took off for its destination. The ARK, with three unexpected guests aboard it.

"That must be the Space Colony ARK." Tails pointed out. The other two in awe at the space facility, but didn't get to dwell long on it as they were struck by an stray asteroid along the way. The impact caused the ship to shake, throwing the three off balance for a second.

"Is everyone alright?" Tails asked, once the rocket had stabilized. Both Amy and Knuckles were fine, but the sound of metal unlatching could be heard in the distance. "We should be landing soon." Tails reassured.

"Crap the hatch doors are open! The Master Emerald pieces!" Knuckles exclaimed when he saw the shards falling out of the rocket.

"Just a few more minutes Knuckles, we're almost there." Amy tried to reassure the other.

"A few more minutes?! No, let me out, I need to go collect those pieces!" Knuckles yelled back, pushing his way forward and was trying to take command of the rocket, his panicked state caused the rocket to start spinning wildly out of control.

"Knuckles stop it before we crash! No, don't touch that lever!" Amy screamed, as now they had completely lost control of the rocket thanks to Knuckles.

>>> Inside Space Colony ARK: Cannon countdown: 2 hours 11 minutes

Luckily, Tails was able to get the rocket to land without a hitch. Him and Amy were currently hiding in a spot within the ARK, Knuckles completely disappeared on them to go find the Master Emerald pieces that went flying out of the rocket.

"I know that emerald is important to him, but seriously, who does that knucklehead think he is, trying to take control of the rocket like that." Amy spoke, kinda annoyed by the slight hiccup in their sneaky approach. "This place looks completely deserted Tails, ah-ah-ACHOO! Ugh, dusty too."

"This place was shut down about 50 years ago because of a terrible accident. The first Bernoulli spherical space colony called, ARK. When it was operational, it was the most advanced research center of it's kind, but looking at it now.." Tails had begun to explain, but just by looking at the state it was in now, it was clear just how far this advanced center had fallen.

"Now it's like an abandoned ark…this is what Sonic and Shadow call home?" Amy asked, knowing the answer she wants, she wasn't getting any time soon. "There's not much time left before Eggman fires that weapon again... We've got to hurry! Let's find the cannon and destroy it!"

"Hold on Amy." Tails said, before Amy could take off running in whatever direction she felt was correct. He typed away at his computer in the Tornado, pulling up various diagrams and blueprints. "Someone designed that weapon to be impenetrable from outside attacks. Its defense system are super strong so we have to find a way to destroy it from the inside!"

With that being said, Tails pulled out a Chaos Emerald from the Tornado, this confused Amy, when did Tails get a Chaos emerald? "You had a Chaos Emerald this whole time?" She asked.

Tails chuckled. "It looks like one doesn't it? But in fact, it's a fake one that I created after researching the real Emerald! It has the same wavelength and properties but is less powerful than the real one. It's designed to reverse the energy field inside the Chaos Emeralds and blow up! It looks so real, even a machine can't tell the difference! I'll find the power supply and destroy it! Amy, you find the control room, okay?" Tails handed her the fake emerald, as she pocketed it away shortly after.

"So that's your plan, let's do it!" She exclaimed, as the two split off to take care of their respective tasks, completely unaware of who was listening in on their conversation.

Coming out from his hiding spot behind the wall, Sonic couldn't help but he impressed by Tails' capabilities. "A fake chaos emerald….well we can't have that now can we? Hope you don't mind if I spill the beans early." Sonic spoke to the air, before taking off towards the central control room, where he knew Eggman was waiting.

As Sonic walked towards the central control room, he paused, giving it some thought. If he let them install the fake chaos emerald, then the cannon won't function correctly, and if that happens then maybe, just maybe he and Shadow can leave this place and roam the planet…

"I'll give them more time before I rat them out, see if they follow through with their plan." Sonic said to himself, walking in the opposite direction of the central control room.

>>> Inside Space Colony ARK: Cannon countdown: 45 minutes

The ARK was quite a maze to navigate through, but eventually Amy reached the central control room. She looked around the room in awe of the technology that went into it, before seeing the slots where each chaos emerald was supposed to go in place. "I found it Tails, I just have to put this emerald into the slot?" She asked into her comms around her wrist.

"Yes, just put in place and the rest will-" Tails had started to explain but suddenly got cut off.

"What? Tails you're cutting out, what happened?" Amy asked.

"Ahem! If you want you're little fox friend to be okay then meet me in the research facility, now!" Eggman's voice suddenly cut through the feed.

"Don't listen to him Amy-" Tails tried to warn her but Eggman interfered with the transmission once more.

"Argh, Damn it Eggman, now you've done it!" Amy frustratedly said, pocketing the fake emerald and heading towards Tails location, like hell was she going to let Eggman hurt her little brother.

>>> Outside Space Colony ARK: Cannon countdown: 1 hour 26 minutes

Meanwhile, outside of the ARK, Knuckles had been gathering the pieces of the Master Emerald that had fallen overboard, he not only managed to re collect the pieces that fell overboard, but also found three more scattered around the meteor field that surrounded the ARK.

He was doing a count, but realized he was still short a couple pieces. "Shit, that Bat Girl must have the remaining pieces." Knuckles dreaded, and as if one cue to his predicament.

"Long time no see treasure hunter. Did you find MY Emeralds?" Speak of the devil, there she was, on top of the center tower that was on the meteor field. Knuckles was not happy to see her, flying up to match her level.

"That's a good one! YOUR Emerald. Talking to you is a waste of time!" Knuckles retorted, pointing his fist towards Rouge, he didn't care who she was, he would fight to protect and restore the Master Emerald.

It seemed the feeling was mutual, as Rouge retaliated first with a swift kick that Knuckles managed to block, seemed they were going to do this the hard way.

The two fought on that central tower, Rouge trying to fly around Knuckles in circles to catch him off guard, but she must have had the remaining emerald pieces, Knuckles could sense its energy, and he could block each one of her attacks.

She was tough, and quick thinker, as Knuckles only got a few hits in before both came to a standstill not much later from when the fight started. Both were panting to catch their breath. "Stop fooling around, and give me back MY Emeralds!" They both yelled at the same time, taken aback by the sudden synchronization.

"What are you blabbing about? You call yourself a hunter? Attacking a lady... Shame on you!" Rouge scolded the other, making Knuckles even more confused.

"What kind of lady goes around stealing gems anyway?" He questioned, still not understanding why she so desperately wanted the master emerald of all gems.

"Those belong to me!" Rouge had started again, secretly planning to get the jump on Knuckles mid scolding, but miscalculated her footing, causing her to trip and fall off the tower and to the lava pit that was below the central tower. "Aahhh!" She screamed.

She started to get closer, closing her eyes expecting this was the end, but it didn't come. She opened her eyes in confusion, looked up and saw Knuckles had grabbed onto her hand, hanging off the ledge himself. "What in the world?"

Knuckles pulled himself up to the beam, then Rouge, helping her get her footing back. When she was back on the solid beam, the two made eye contact for a brief few seconds before quickly separating. "Keep your hands to yourself! Don't touch me!" Rouge scolded again.

"Is that how you say thanks to someone who just saved your life?" Knuckles retorted with a bit of sarcasm.

"Saving my life, don't think I owe you one! You just wanted to to hold my hand didn't you? That's why you saved me! You're such a creep!" Rouge responded back.

Knuckles really didn't get this girl. "This isn't a joke, you know! Think what you want bat girl, I was saving the Master Emerald." He tried to reason with her once more. Rouge sighed, seemingly getting tired of this whole situation.

"No matter what you say, it sounds crazy!" She said, but dropped the remaining pieces that Knuckles needed before him. Knuckles was taken aback by this sudden behavior change. "Fine, then just take them. They stink like echidnas do."

Well that was rather rude, Knuckles liked to think he smelled wonderfully of grapes and other fruits. But he did feel better gathering the remaining pieces knowing it was no longer a race to gather them all. "If that's what you thought, you should have given me them in the first place!" He said, putting the pieces together in their rightful spots, a green glow began to appear from the pieces before a white flash engulfed it, when it faded away, the Master Emerald was back to its original form.

Knuckles felt so relieved seeing the gem once again, he looked over to Rouge who was pretending to not pay him any attention but was also clearly looking at him. "What?" She asked.

"I'm sorry...if I hurt you." The echidna whispered, taking the Master Emerald and running off, before Rouge could say or do anything else, also extremely thankful for his red fur, it could hide the blush that appeared one his face when he apologized to Rouge.

>>> ARK: Lower Levels.

Once Knuckles was away from Rouge, he took this moment to catch his breath. "Now I just need go help Amy, then I get the Master Emerald back to Angel Island." He spoke, double checking the Master Emerald was fully restored and wasn't going to self implode in anyway.

"So, this is the Master Emerald?" A new voice spoke, causing Knuckles to quickly turn into a defensive posture.

"Who's there?!" He called out, feeling a gust of wind go by, next thing he knew, there was a blue hedgehog exclaiming the Master Emerald next to him. "How did you- Who are you?" Knuckles questioned.

"You can call me Sonic." The hedgehog responded, leaning in closer to the Master Emerald, his eyes were a similar green to the emerald itself. He reached out to touch the emerald.

"Don't touch it." Knuckles demanded, prepared to fight the other, but saw the emerald react to Sonic, and not in a negative way. "The Master Emerald has never responded to an outsider like that before, what are you?"

The energy Sonic felt within the Master Emerald was calming, it was a similar energy to what was used to make him. "Nothing mortal, I can tell you that much. I'll keep it brief, you're going to have a drop in, in about 3, 2, 1-"

As if on cue to Sonic, Amy suddenly appeared from out of nowhere, falling to the ground, and would have hit the ground if Knuckles didn't catch her. "Amy! Are you okay? What happened?" He questioned.

"Woah, I wasn't sure if I could pull that one off. Somehow, I managed to use the Chaos Control." Amy tiredly answered, as Sonic walked over to the two.

"Chaos Control?" Knuckles questioned.

"That would be partly my fault, I was the one to tell Eggman about the fake chaos emerald. Didn't think you could use chaos control like Shadow though, that's impressive." Sonic partially praised.

Knuckles helped Amy get her bearings before she shook away the dizziness. She looked at Sonic with confusion. "Just who's side are you on? One minute you're helping Eggman, the next you're doing something to help us, I don't get you Sonic." She said.

"I was never on Eggman's side." Sonic answered, leaving Amy even more confused.

"Then who are you helping?" She further asked.

"Wait Amy, I think its this Shadow you told me about on the way here. Is that who you're helping?" Knuckles asked this time.

"Correct. Its like I said from the beginning to you, Rose. I was never helping Eggman, I have been helping Shadow." Sonic confirmed.

"Even if you know what Shadow is doing, is wrong?" She continued, seeing Sonic hesitant for a moment. "What's stopping you from stopping him?"

Sonic crossed his arms, taking a deep breath, realizing this wasn't the time to be holding out on secrets if he wants his reality to continue. "The truth is, I know he hasn't fully remembered what happened 50 years ago. My hopes were he would remember before things got this far, but it seems that might not be the case…"

"You really care about him, don't you?" Amy asked, feeling sympathy towards Sonic. She could see the look in his eyes, as he talked about Shadow. He truly loved Shadow, and just wants this to be over with, but not at the cost of either his or Shadow's life.

"More than anything else, Rose." Sonic answered.

Amy clutched her fist in determination. "Then it's up to us to end this! Leave it to me Sonic! I'll go knock some sense into him, then when this is all over we can all go out for strawberry shortcake!" She gave the other a peace sign with her iconic smile.

Sonic couldn't help but chuckle. "Despite everything, you still want to give me and Shadow a second chance?"

"Like I said to you, everyone deserves a second chance if they are willingly to try! Lets end this here and now!" With that said, she ran off towards the inner workings of the ARK.

"She always that enthusiastic?" Sonic asked Knuckles.

"When her friends are on the line? Yes." Knuckles responded.

Friends huh? Sonic could get used to that, it had a nice ring to it.

>>> Outside Space Colony ARK: Cannon countdown: 5 minutes 44 seconds

Amy was currently standing in a corridor that leads out of the ARK, she had a plan in mind, after she dealt with Shadow, she'll take the fake emerald and launch it into place before the cannon could go off.

She was determined until she heard footsteps approaching, she turned around and saw it was Shadow. "You never cease to surprise me pink hedgehog. I thought that the capsule you were in exploded in space." He said.

Amy chuckled. "What can I say, I'm a stubborn one." Picking up her running speed, and Shadow did the same. She took out the fake emerald from her pocket, showing it to Shadow. "I actually got the idea from you, so technically you saved me."

"It was a Chaos Emerald, wasn't it? But, there's no way you could have activated the Chaos Control using an Emerald that's fake.

So, there's more to you than meets the eye. What are you anyway?" He asked her.

"Just a girl that loves adventuring with her friends, Amy Rose! And don't you forget it!" She happily proclaimed.

"I see. But you know, I can't let you live. Your adventuring days are coming to an end." He gave as one final warning.

"We'll see about that, I promised your boyfriend that we get cake once this is all over, so I'll go easy on you!" Amy offered in response.And with that, the two began to fight once more.

>>> ARK: Abandoned lab: Cannon countdown: 1 minute 33 seconds

Tails stood in front of the window of the room where Eggman launched Amy into space, and after defeating the Doctor in battle. "Amy, I did it!" Tails said, pleased yet still upset, when suddenly his walkie-talkie came alive. "Huh?"

"Awesome job, Tails!" Amy praised from her end of the comms.

"Amy!" Tails happily exclaimed, relieved she was okay.

"Look outside!" Amy said, Tails doing so to see the Eclipse Cannon being destroyed. Shadow proved to be a stubborn obstacle, but Amy had made it in the knick of time, letting the fake chaos emerald do its thing before Eggman could activate the cannon once more. Amy looked towards the window she could see Tails from, hanging off the destroyed cannon, and gave him a thumbs up.

They did it! They won!

Or…did they really?

Nana: Yeah, I’d say Piko. His attitude doesn’t really reflect that of a winner’s.

IA HAS WON THIS SEASON OF RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE

Ia Plannettes

Miku Hatsune

Moke Zhiyu

Gumi Megpoid

Piko Utatane

Fukase Sato

Rin Kagamine

Mayu Kobayashi

Nana Macne

Len Kagamine

Yukari Yuzuki

Xin Hua

Okay, so I feel like Ia could DEFINITELY win drag race. I think Fukase got out too early as well, like he’d BODY the competition. The fact that Miku lasted up til 2nd place is INSANE. If this was canon, she’d probably be out after the 3rd episode. Actually, Miku would be too embarrassed to go all out, crack under the pressure, and flop. She’d definitely accept a guest judge position though LOL. Piko shouldn’t have gotten that far either, he’s not that fashionable or confident, idk what stats I entered that made him get so far. Rin would be a great drag king or queen 100%. Yukari should have gotten last place though, he would be an awful queen/king.

I seriously need to keep up with my schedule, this is the second time in the same week I've forgotten to post something on the day I said I would.

On another note, thanks for 40+ notes on the Technoblade fanart, it means a lot to me :D

TL;DR: I talk a bit regarding my plans for my Vocaloid AU's Piko Utatane, not very long since I've been slaving away doing a bigger project.

↓↓ Click here if you'd like to know more! ↓↓

Hello again! My brain and eyes have been dying on me these days, I'm so sorry I couldn't get to this earlier.

There's lots of things I haven't gotten to doing tbh, BUT I can happily announce that I've been starting on my portfolio projects for my college. I'll probably post progress pics of them every time I reach a certain point I'm happy with. The one I'm currently doing is more hands-on and less about drawing, which is why I've been running out of stock. (This is 100% an excuse to start posting WIPs)

In fact, one of the projects I've listed down is an entire animated PMV for this AU, with Piko as the MC!

I'll have to ask the person responsible whether I can send them that though, so it's still up in the air as of now. I have plotted a general storyboard of what should happen when and I'll be posting some of its pictures in... maybe a couple more days?

Anyways, back to the main focus.

I vaguely remember mentioning that Piko's a dickhead in the story in my last Oliver post, and that's absolutely true LMAO. I want him to be this little man who's incredibly cocky and mad, who had big aspirations but they were crushed by reality. He lashes out at people whenever his insecurity is brought up and he especially hates the people responsible for it.

His friends have been trying to get him to open up about it but it never works, sometimes it even backfires on them because he's just that stubborn.

Even so, all he's trying to do is protect his friends. In his perspective, he's just trying to make them stop associating with that gang because it won't do them any good. Just like what he went through when he first arrived. They'll only feel hurt when they realize the truth.

Which is why I've designed him with this concept in mind, like a floating jacket is cool as hell and I would love to have one in real life, (Even if it may be absolutely useless, it's for the a e s t h e t i c, okay?) but the implications of it is GREAT. He also has sharp as hell eyeliner because who doesn't like eyeliner? I think it makes him look really edgy and that is exactly how he is as a person so it works out kinda.

Okay, this is getting really long for just "a bit." I'll probably go into deeper detail once I actually ask about the PMV stuff.

See you soon! B) I can't explicitly say on which day because I know my stupid ass is going to forget somehow.

Not me getting a vocaloid warrior cats au idea after waking up at like 3 in the morning and coming up with a whole plot idea and story setting in like an hour

First up, setting and background shit

Two clans, one for vocaloids called EchoClan, (no particular reason, just sounds cool) and one for utaus called CrashClan (since Kasane means heavy sound) other kinds of synths are loners, rogues, or kittypets

Wolfheart (Dex) and Foxfire (Daina) are former CrashClan members who joined EchoClan after an incident where a fire forced the two clans to take shelter at the meeting area together while their camps were rebuilt (since their voice providers had utaus before being summoned to make vocaloids)

Leekstar (Miku) and Batstar (Teto, getting her name from her chimera origins) are the leaders of their respective clans (for obvious reasons)

As for the main story,

Silverclaw, (Tei) the deputy of CrashClan, is tired of EchoClan constantly being the "heroes" of the stories, and wants to bring her clan to power, by any means necessary, not many cats know of her true self, and believe her to be a cold yet kind deputy who will do anything to help her clan.

Citrusfrost (Rin) is a medicine cat who receives a prophecy of 4 cats rising to defend their clan against a great threat lurking in the shadows.

Flower, a former EchoClan cat turned loner currently living with a group of barn cats (cevio gang) after the death of hud mentor back when he was an apprentice a la ravenpaw, hears rumors of CrashClan trying to take some of their territory.

Flintpounce, (Yohioloid, chosen bc he was apparently discontinued in 2021) was thought to be killed by accident during a border scuffle, but Thunderflight (Piko) is convinced that there's something going on beneath the surface, so he got the help of his friend Russetflame, (Fukase) and Flintpounce's former apprentice, Finchpaw (Oliver) in order to investigate what's really going on here.

#vocaloid #warrior cats #warriors #utauloid #i've been sick for 3 days #but that won't stop me #from being an idiot #vocaloid au #warrior cats au #au idea #ask me stuff #please i beg you i need questions to be asked in order to develop my aus beyond imaginative ideas and concepts

Somes of my vocaloid headcanons 👍 from my main au.

Fukase's english is very fluent, he can read, listen, write and speak it perfectly.

Len can speak and read it well but it is difficult for him with the rest (writing correctly is so difficult for him)

Piko can speak it in a very decent way but his pronunciation really sucks; he can read and write it well, although when listening to it he sometimes needs to be repeated, he seldom understand it the first time.

Fukase helps them in english tests.

In the orals and exposition he helps Piko with his pronunciation

Piko and Fukase met in middle high school; they meet Len in high school.

My Fukase is very insecure in many things, I see that the only reason why he started to hang out with Piko is because he was the only person who didn't push him away (Piko didn't push him away because he ignored him, he waiting for Fukase to understand he didn't want to be close with him)

Fukase comes from another middle high school where he was bullied because of his weight and this causes him despises himself a lot.

Piko was very indifferent to Fukase's closeness.

That first part of their relationship can be considered "it's better that nothing"

Fukase preferred that to being alone.

The relationship between Piko and Fukase is based on habit(? and the great dependence that they began to develop.

In addition to the fact that, when they met, Fukase came from being a victim of bullying, making him somewhat vulnerable and with an ease of entering a dysfunctional relationship (friendship in this case).

Fukase took Piko's indifference as a good thing, since Piko didn't insult him, he was fine with it.

After this, both started doing works escolar projects together, they just got used to each other's presence.

Did they like each other? Maybe, but nothing good could came out of there.

4.1. I guess

Their friendship was never real (at least the first few years), even though they weren't friends, they became dependent on each other, that's why their fight didn't last(?; they were so used to being together that they didn't know what to do apart.

Piko and Fukase often leave Len aside and this make him feel insufficient, sometimes he feels as if he is worth nothing, that's why he like to be around people, he feels that everyone love him.

Tbh, Len has a lot of charisma.

When Una gets angry, she could have told you to go to hell but, unlike other, she thinks a little before and does not do it, at least not at the beginning; it starts with sarcastic comments and if someone is able to drive her out of her boxes, there come definitely a salad of insult.

She like to keep up appearances

Sonic Ring Bond Intro

A sonic the Hedgehog AU by Sonic Fan J

Welcome everyone to my Sonic AU, Sonic Ring Bond. I would like to take the time now to introduce you to my little corner of the fandom and the ideas behind my AU. I had contemplated originally trying to present this introduction as a full-on textbook style document, but frankly I’m a lot better at talking than I am planning so I’ll be treating this more as a text seminar. Hopefully I’ll avoid rambling too much and will manage to entertain and enthrall you with my ideas. At the very least, I hope you’ll come away from this with a firm grasp at least of the world I see for my Amy Rosy redesign, Rosy, to run around in. There’s a lot to cover as well, from the ideas that led to this AU to the setting, the characters, and my take on what games have occurred within it and how the events within unfolded.

To begin, I should note that Sonic Mania did not initially enthrall me as it did so many other Sonic fans who have been with Sonic since 1991. In fact, I was already weary of the nostalgia pandering that so many others had grown tired of as well. I was also at a point in my Sonic fandom where I yearned for Naka and Oshima’s Sonic with only memories of Sonic Adventure 2 and Unleashed keeping me interested in Iizuka’s Sonic. Most importantly however I was having a complete reevaluation of my love of the franchise due to having finally watched the OVA and being overwhelmed with a sense of nostalgia for why I had fallen in love with Sonic to begin with. Then there was also me learning of a point in Sonic’s massive history where Amy had addressed him as Sonic-sama which led me on a massive reexamination of her character and what she was introduced as and the role she was meant to fulfill. I learned an awfully lot during this period both about Amy and my feelings and desires for what I wanted out of the franchise. Suffice to say I found myself disliking Amy’s signature Piko Piko Hammer and coming to odds with the franchise direction though Mania gave me a little hope. That hope was born of false expectations of my own creation due to a desire to see how Amy would have been handled before her hammer was ever given to her as her primary creator for the games, Kazuyuki Hoshino had said he was getting back into the mindset of that time as a content director for Mania. As is typically the case with such false expectations, nothing came of them, almost.

In addition to gameplay arguments going around at the time and my dislike of Amy’s hammer taking root in me, in the Sonic community I was a part of at the time, and quickly growing ostracized in due to my dislike of Amy’s hammer, there was concern about Amy’s outfit and the problems distinct to it in a three-dimensional space. This combined with my desire to see Amy with traditional Sonic gameplay led to me creating my Amy redesign Rosy. Garbed in a white leotard to avoid certain problems distinct to a dress while also intending to capture the image of someone who tumbles, I also went with her classic design to fully imply Sonic’s rolling gameplay. At the time that was enough for me and I was pleased enough to just see her serving as my avatar on various sights. I also enjoyed drawing her as it cheered me up with a lot of negativity floating around the fandom at the time. Naturally as I drew her more, more and more people started asking me about her and I had to start considering the why of her. It was no longer enough to just be happy with her as a drawing, she needed something more. An AU was the logical path to fleshing her out, and being a big Sonic fan who loves way too much of the franchise in all of it’s parts I wanted to try and mash as many disparate parts together as I could into a single world while rewriting Amy’s place in it. This resulted in my weird little Hedgehog Circus AU which has does possess several things I still like. But it is busy, over encumbered, and lacking in the simplicity necessary to serve the beginnings of an AU that I can enjoy. So, after a great deal of thinking, studying the franchise, and looking for ways that I could justify to myself Rosy having Sonic’s abilities I started again mashing together ideas I liked, but kept it as simple as I could. The result is Sonic Ring Bond.

The Setting

Aesthetics.

There is nothing that sells a setting to me more than aesthetics. I am a very visual individual who appreciates what good aesthetics brings to a story and world and nothing captures the sense of whimsey, adventure, and discovery that I yearn for in Sonic better than Hayao Miyazaki. The movies that I am most enthralled by aesthetically and thus become the primary basis for the setting for Sonic Ring Bond are Laputa: Castle in the Sky, Porco Rosso, Kiki’s Delivery Service, and Howl’s Moving Castle. Using the imagery of these movies as well as the ever-changing shape and nature of Sonic’s world from the games the world of Sonic Ring Bond is a fading world where technology has fallen to appoint barely hanging on to airships and early industrialization. Human’s, humans with animal traits drawing inspiration from settings like the fighting game “BlazBlue”, the Sonic OVA, and the anime “Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? Isogashii Desu ka? Sukutte Moratte Ii Desu ka?”, as well as animal people like Sonic himself all live together or in isolation across the world. But the world is ever changing. One day an entire landmass maybe just across the bay, the next it is not. To keep the world linked together the world’s governments uses an ancient technology they do not understand to build and deploy giant Rings known as Ring Gates to link together communities no matter where they may be one day. These gates are one part of where the Ring Bond title comes from for my AU, but are not used without due consideration. Making a Ring Gate requires a great deal of Rings which are collected by adventurers who are supported by the organization Checkpoint.

Checkpoint is an organization that possesses access to special Ring Gates that bond to an individual and allow them to recall them back to a Checkpoint facility at any time. They are not the only adventurer supporting organization, but access to these unique Ring Gates and even Sonic the Hedgehog being an adventurer who relies on them in the Ring Bond AU has made them very popular. Despite being an organization though, they are more of a hub for adventurers to sell the information found on their adventures as well as receive requests from governments, corporations, communities, and even individuals to explore new and frequently ancient landmasses. The most common of requests fielded by Checkpoint are scouting out resources and determining if a location is worth deploying a Ring Gate to for long term access with resources including material, historical, agricultural, or even culturally if new communities are discovered and deemed worth maintain relations with. Most adventurers have a dedicated agent who monitor them while fielding communications and requests in addition to handling the information they bring back from their adventures. Not every adventurer accepts requests preferring just to see new lands and locales like Sonic himself, reporting in for various personal reasons. Sonic himself in my AU was not even an adventurer who reported into Checkpoint until he rescued Zooey from Sonic BOOM! during one of his adventures and her home island simply disappeared before he could her back. With little other option Sonic left her with Checkpoint due to their reputation and she became his agent. Also, due to being inspired by a pic that @drawloverlala once drew with Tails and Zooey dressed Edward Elric and Winry Rockbell from Full Metal Alchemist, in Sonic Ring Bond idecided Zooey also serves as the mechanic for the Tornado. So, where does that leave Tails? Well, Tails is in the Ring Bond AU, but his role is a little different as well as his relationship with Sonic. This has to do with me being fond of the idea that him and Amy would make great friends who support each other in their pursuit of Sonic and his lifestyle. This of course leads me to

The Characters

For my AU I did not really want to change the characters too much, but I did want to answer a few questions I’ve always had while also indulging in some of my biases and preferences. In the example of biases and preferences after seeing artwork from @rontufox on deviantart.com that I interpreted as showing Sonic and Mighty as good friends who occasionally adventure together but mostly swap adventuring stories in my AU it is Mighty who is Sonic’s best friend and not Tails due to sharing similar lifestyles that give them grounds to bond on. Tails in Sonic Ring Bond actually becomes close friends with Rosy to indulge in my belief that Tails’ and Amy’s personalities and shared love for and interest in Sonic and his adventures as a starting point. But Rosy and Tails also share one more thing in common that they actually share with Mighty which leaves him concerned about Sonic’s spontaneity combined with his aloofness; the titular Ring Bond.

The Ring Bond

A question I used to ask myself all the time but stopped having to once SEGA and Sonic Team decided to be pretty definitive with how only a few Characters possessed Sonic’s speed instead of nearly everyone in the pre-Adventure days was what is the source of everyone’s speed. I used to have all sorts of headcanons for everyone but Sonic who I just accepted it as being natural for. Outside of speed though there were other things I wondered about as well such as how Tails managed to use Sonic’s Super Spin Attack without Sonic’s spines. As I began really developing my AU, I figured I could address that as well and the solution that I eventually settled with drew inspiration both from the Paramount movie and the Sonic OVA. That solution is that Sonic’s abilities can be shared by others. This solution of course needed to have a solution of its own to the question of how Sonic share could his abilities. Me being me with the need to over explain things as well but wanting to stay reasonably within the limitations of the games it was (Knuckles) Chaotix that would afford me my answer in Ring Energy. Going by the Japanese manual for Chaotix, Ring Energy is a force that can bind two Rings together allowing for the rubber band mechanics of the game. Considering all the other properties and abilities of Rings I came up with the Ring Bond, the ability to share one’s abilities with someone else through Rings.

Within my AU Sonic with his experience with rings and the various things they do simply figured it out and shared his abilities with Mighty, Rosy, and Tails to get each of them out of a situation that he couldn’t just carry them through. In Mighty’s case that was escaping Eggman Island, Rosy it was getting through Metallic Madness on Little Planet (which addresses for me how she made it through and caught up with him by the end), and Tails as the fox needed to be able to protect himself being able to use his tails to keep up with Sonic through the Death Egg Saga. But while Sonic simply figured it out in his own way Eggman has been slowly figuring it out as he has been perfecting Metal Sonic, needing only the Ring Bond to fully add Sonic’s abilities to the robot doppelganger. Luring Mighty, Rosy, and Tails to island that (Knuckles) Chaotix takes place on as part of his attempts to further understand how rings work after realizing that they all have Sonic’s abilities. At this point though I should probably change course and detail what games have taken place in the Ring Bond AU and the order in which they do. I’ll also take this opportunity to further flesh out how the characters met each other so things might get even lengthier and meander even more as we move on into

The Games & History

So before getting too into, it should be noted that in my AU, like the Japanese manual for the original game states, Sonic and Eggman were already at it before any of the games take place. During this time period in Sonic Ring Bond is when Sonic met Zooey and joined Checkpoint. It was during his time with checkpoint before any of the games that he heard of Mighty as an adventurer who would seek out and find the most spectacular of natural locales. After checking out some of them himself Sonic would seek out Mighty to hear about his travels from the armadillo himself. The two being kindred adventurers with a love for discovery they hit it off and became fast friends exchanging stories and places for the other to check out. Their friendship would appear as an opportunity to Eggman who would attempt to capture Might to use as bait to lure Sonic to Eggman Island. By sheer luck however Egman managed to capture both Sonic and Mighty.

Unlike the original game, the Ring Bond version of SegaSonic the Hedgehog only had Sonic and Mighty go through game’s events. Now, as the Sonic Mania Adventure shorts showed that Mighty lacks Sonic’s speed and considering the traps of Eggman Island, Sonic knew there was no way to get Mighty out using his usual methods. Getting his hand on the first available Rings he could Sonic attempted to use Ring Energy to pull Mighty along behind him. With traps designed to overwhelm Sonic however littering the island in a continuous gauntlet doing so would have surely gotten the both of them killed. Wary to do so, but not accepting the alternative, Sonic created a Ring Bond between him and Mighty, granting his abilities to the armadillo. While it took Mighty a bit to get used to using them, his shell kept him safe and eventually he was able to not only follow Sonic to safety, but played his part in their escape from Eggman island.

Possessed of Sonic’s abilities, Mighty wanted to repay Sonic as he would now be able to see the world in ways he never had before. Sonic declined the offer as he believed the effects of the Ring Bond would be temporary but Mighty insisted and told Sonic how to reach Never Lake so he could see the appearance of the Miracle Planet. Figuring if he was in the area while it was around he’d check it and parted ways with Mighty until their next meeting. The Miracle Planet, Little Planet, was not just of interest to Sonic however as Eggman had ambitions of his own using it’s time traveling properties for his schemes and a certain pink hedgehog would receive an order from her cards to head to Never Lake for a fated encounter.

Now in Sonic Ring Bond, Amy’s background is a bit more detailed. The reason for this is like answering why she, Mighty and Tails have Sonic’s abilities, I felt a need to answer why I would use her original nickname over her actual name. To do so, I fell back on my Hedgehog Circus AU where before she met Sonic her fortune telling abilities allowing her to find treasure had resulted in her being sought out by Fang the Sniper. Being the treasure hunting ruffian that he is, Fang didn’t take to Amy’s personality and took to calling her Rosy as commentary on her outlook. Choosing to travel with Fang to indulge her desire for adventure and how playful she was would result in others calling her a rascal. But Rosy the Rascal would not spend all her time in the company of Fang as if the power of the cards gave her an order she followed without hesitation. Following the order to the letter was a different story as when she reached Never Lake she was enamored by the Miracle Planet and made her way up to check it out oblivious of the dangers posed by Eggman. As for how she got up there, for Sonic Ring Bond I’ve decided to play with a headcanon of mine that she owns the magic carpet that her stage in Sonic the Fighters takes place on. She probably found while adventuring with Fang and simply kept it for herself without ever letting him know she has it. I see her keeping it a secret from everyone as magical artifacts could very easily change the world in unexpected ways.

Rosy was not the only one thinking about the effects of mystical artifacts as Eggman was well on his was to tracking down the Time Stones so that he might unlock the flow of time and conquer the world. Ever the industrial genius, Eggman was expecting Sonic’s eventual appearance and to that end using the advanced technology he found in Little Planet’s future created his most advance machine, Metal Sonic. Despite how advanced Metal Sonic was and Eggman’s genius being able to easily comprehend and make deft use of technology long lost to the world, the robot was still pretty much just a mannequin built around a jet engine. Not wanting to waste his creation willy-nilly Eggman waited for an opportunity to use it where Sonic would have to take on it’s full capabilities without just trashing it. Rosy’s fangirling over meeting Sonic who as a hedgehog adventurer herself she idolizes would be the perfect opportunity and Metal Sonic would make his debut by abducting the hedgehog girl. Perhaps more bothered by not having the opportunity to talk Sonic into taking her on his adventure than being held hostage, Rosy would get her desire in a way she did not quite expect.

When Sonic finally caught up, spending more time leaving Rosy a hostage than she would have liked as he went about removing Eggman’s influence on Little Planet and making sure the Time Stones were safe, he found himself pitted in a race against his robotic doppelganger. Unfortunately for Metal Sonic, Sonic won the race and was able to rescue Rosy, to a point. The road to Eggman’s fortress was where the race had taken place and Eggman had completely annihilated it making doubly sure of Sonic’s end should he lose to Metal Sonic. With the road gone and the only way forward being through Eggman’s fortress, Sonic found himself having to figure out how to get Rosy to safety. It was unlikely that Eggman’s fortress on Little Planet would be any less dangerous than Eggman Island, and Rosy was obviously younger than him and lacking the ability to make it through such a place. Begrudgingly and hoping that the effects of the Ring Bond truly were temporary, Sonic shared his abilities with Rosy and led her into Eggman’s fortress. Unlike Mighty though, she was not as quick to pick up using Sonic’s abilities and would barely catch up to Sonic as he drove Eggman off of Little Planet.

Escaping the planet after Eggman just as it’s one-month appearance came to an end, Sonic headed off towards his next adventure leaving Rosy behind. The change in status quo for Rosy after her life changing adventure on Little Planet would come back to haunt Sonic in due time, but not before answering a call for help from the legendary South Island. Eggman had taken to the island after hearing of the major losses of the terrifying sky pirates, the Battle Kukku’s, who were searching for the legendary Chaos Emeralds. Conducting his own research into them Eggman discovered and tracked down South Island. Naturally he upended the island in his search and Sonic being so well known was reached out to by the inhabitants for help. Upon arriving at South Island, Sonic found Eggman waiting for him with a devious trap in play; to slow Sonic down he had captured all the animals on the island and shoved them into his robots.

Now, for the Ring Bond AU things are a little more complicated as Fang the Sniper and Metal Sonic also make their way to South Island. Eggman is surprised by Metal’s reappearance, both him and Sonic oblivious to Sonic using the Ring Bond having an effect on the robot allowing it to make its way back to Eggman. With Metal Sonic’s mysterious return and eavesdropping on Sonic and Fang discovering that the treasure hunter blames Sonic for his loss of his treasure tracker as Rosy suddenly had Sonic’s abilities leaves the doctor curious. Thus, while attempting to discover the Chaos Emeralds in a race against Sonic and Fang, Eggman repairs Metal Sonic and sends it out to cause interference. In the end Sonic beats them all, and through his Ring Bond ability harnesses the power of the Chaos Emeralds to undo the damage caused by Eggman. In his use of the Chaos Emeralds however Eggman was able to witness their power and desired more and more to harness them. To that end he would have to repair Metal again as the robot seemed affected by Sonic. He would need more data however as well as the chance to get his hands on the Chaos Emeralds again.

Whether by sheer coincidence or perhaps design, Sonic and Eggman both descended upon West Side Island, the Illusory Island providing the doctor the opportunity he had been waiting for. Sonic however was oblivious to his nemesis’ arrival and had simply set down on the island to take a break between adventures. While there he found himself starting to be followed by a two-tailed fox boy who could use his tails to keep up with him. Nicknaming him Tails and viewing him as little more than a minor distraction, Sonic ignored him for the most part during his time on the island and let him do as he pleased. This was enough for Tails, who despite having fended off the Battle Kukku Armada lacked the courage and confidence to approach a hero such as Sonic. He did however desire to become a hero like Sonic, especially after having defeated the Battle Kukkus. Having just a little more confidence in himself he had trained himself to use his tails to reach groundspeeds around the speed of sound in the hopes of one day impressing his hero as unlikely as it was that he would meet him. Impressing him was not quite what Tails would manage to do though.

Eggman’s plans eventually sprung into action and the destruction he caused in the process naturally drew Sonic’s attention. Racing off to save yet another legendary island from Eggman, Sonic found himself being followed by the young fox. Suddenly Tails’ ability to keep up with Sonic proved to be problematic as though Tails believed if he could keep up with Sonic everything would be fine and believed he could help, Eggman was far greater than the Battle Kukku Armada. Unable to chase Tails off and fearful that the stubborn fox would get himself hurt or worse, Sonic made the decision to grant him his abilities through the Ring Bond. Surpassing Sonic’s expectations, Tails took to his abilities like a natural and became a major asset in saving West Side Island. His ability to fly the Tornado elevated him even higher, but not nearly as much as his ability to slap a rocket on it and repair it in the time it Sonic to bring down Eggman’s airship. Impressive as Tails’ abilities were, however, he could not keep up with Sonic as Sonic chased Eggman into space and had a battle with a far clunkier robot double of himself. Clunky as it was, it was combat capable and the space fortress that Eggman built put him even further and further ahead of the technology of the world below. Unable to let Eggman keep his latest and greatest creation for the sake of the world below, Sonic again used the Ring Bond to harness the power of the Chaos Emeralds hoping to undo the space station’s creation. To Sonic’s surprise the Chaos Emeralds transformed him and granted him the power to do as he desired to protect the world.

With the Death Egg seeming destroyed, Sonic allowed himself a few days rest. Tails, amazed by Sonic’s extraordinary feats spent those days rummaging through the remains of Eggman’s bases on West Side Island to see what Eggman had dug up on the Chaos Emeralds. Tinkering around with Eggman’s tech Tails managed to put together a Chaos Emerald detector and to his surprise picked up reaction in the middle of the ocean. The direction was the same as the epicenter of a tidal wave that brought an ancient Ring to Sonic’s attention reminding him of the legends of an island that floated in the sky. Deciding his next adventure would be Angel Island, Sonic headed out allowing Tails to join him again as his Chaos Emerald detector would likely lead them to the legendary Angel Island.

Finding Angel island proved far easier for Eggman as he simply had to wait for the Death Egg to crash land to find it. Attracting the attention of the island’s guardian, Knuckles the Echidna, Eggman managed to trick him into believing Sonic was his enemy. Doubting that Knuckles would serve as much of an obstacle to Sonic, Eggman took his combat data from Mecha Sonic Mk. I to start work on a Mk. II unit in addition to digging himself in on the island. Eggman however vastly underestimated Knuckles, as the island’s guardian was more properly the Guardian of the Master Emerald, a legendary gem that controlled the Chaos Emeralds. Due to his duty and the stories engrained into the island and him he was blessed with abilities matching Sonic’s as well as knowledge of the Ring Bond. As a result, he introduced himself to Sonic by breaking his Ring Bond with the Chaos Emeralds. It was a shock to Sonic and Tails both and when they discovered that Eggman was already on Angel island things got desperate.

The battle for Angel Island was unlike any other as Sonic had to restore his Ring Bond with the Chaos Emeralds to prevent Eggman from gaining access to them, fend off the misinformed Knuckles, and stop the Death Egg from making it back into space. It was more than Tails could keep up with and as the Death Egg began to ascend Sonic’s journey would continue on alone. He would stop the first launch on his own and would soon after discover the truth about Knuckles. Deciding to help out the echidna he would use his Ring Bond to restore the bonds between the Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald. He would not succeed at stopping the Death Egg from finally making it into space however or keep Eggman from getting his hands on the Master Emerald. Realizing the error of his ways, Knuckles sent Sonic on ahead to try and catch up to Eggman exposing him to Mech Sonic Mk. II. Despite the improvements of his latest doppelganger Sonic managed to still catch up with the Death Egg. After an epic encounter in space, Sonic would truly destroy the space station this time and meet back up with Tails before reuniting Knuckles with the master Emerald. Despite saving Angel Island though, Sonic had a nagging feeling and after parting ways with Tails took the Tornado once again into the sky after the legendary floating island.

For Knuckles it was a good thing that Sonic did as Eggman’s robots had long overstayed their welcome, but most importantly, Mecha Sonic Mk. II had managed to get its hands on the Master Emerald. After a grueling battle with the emerald powered machine, Knuckles was saved by Sonic from plummeting to his doom. Relieved to hear that Knuckles had dealt with Eggman’s leftovers, Sonic left Knuckles and Angel Island for a second time. But neither he nor Knuckles realized that the Master Emerald’s Guardian had not fully dealt with Eggman’s leftovers. There was enough left of Mecha Sonic Mk. II for Eggman, who had survived his last clash with Sonic, to salvage and analyze the data it held. It was more than Eggman could have ever hoped for as it revealed through the bond with the Master Emerald the Ring Bond.

Desperate to study the secret of the Rings and learn about Sonic’s Ring Bond ability, Eggman was thrilled when a whole island began to rise up out of the ocean in response to the Master Emerald’s time on the surface. Hoping that the island would lead him to unravel the mysteries of the Rings Eggman was more amazed than he anticipated he could be. He discovered the Rings could be used to directly access the Master Emerald and more secrets due to the island having once been part of the same civilization that Angel Island had been part of. Gleefully building a new base on the island to support his research, Eggman invented the Dark Ring and began enhancing Metal Sonic. He still needed more data though to complete his original Sonic doppelganger and recalled three individuals who he knew about who possessed Sonic’s abilities. Hatching his next scheme Eggman proceeded to lure Mighty, Rosy, and Tails to the nameless island. Unfortunately for Eggman, someone he did not account for got involved.

Since having rid Angel Island of the last of Eggman’s influence, Knuckles had been watching the world below for signs of the Master Emerald having affected it. The rising of an island from the ocean in a world constantly shifting about seemed little to worry himself about, but Eggman’s interest in the island kept him keeping an eye on things. When the Master Emerald began reacting to the Chaos Rings, powerful Rings born from long lost Ring Bonds with the Chaos Emeralds and Master Emerald, Knuckles knew he would have to investigate what was going on. He didn’t know about the Chaos Rings themselves, but was not surprised when a trio of adventures with Ring Bonds with Sonic showed up and fell under attack from Eggman. What horrible fate awaited them had Knuckles not come down from Angel Island is one Mighty was glad he would not find out.

For Mighty, his time on the nameless island was a lot like his time on Eggman Island constantly avoiding traps and Eggman’s attempts to stop him. Matters were more complicated this time though as the presence of Rosy and Tails also sharing a Ring Bond with Sonic and believing they could help Knuckles with his reason for being there meant he couldn’t just flee. Someone had to take responsibility for Sonic so recklessly making Ring Bonds and Mighty felt with what he saw of Knuckles’ personality he was unlikely to keep Tails and Rosy out of trouble. When they had to face off against Metal Sonic and a giant monstrous version of the machine, he was glad though that Knuckles was present as his combat expertise proved integral in stopping Eggman’s plans and the creation of the Dark Ring. Knuckles took it a step further however and used the power of the Master Emerald held in the Chaos Rings to destroy the island and make sure that they could never be used by Eggman again or endanger the master Emerald. Saddened by the loss of history, Mighty would have liked to spend some time speaking with the echidna about his past and everything he knew about the world but had to deal with Rosy and Tails.

During the adventure Rosy had hit it of with Tails in their shared idolization of Sonic, even if Tails couldn’t grasp Rosy’s crush. Completely hyped up by the adventure Rosy wanted nothing more than to team up with Tails to go adventuring and try to find Sonic but Mighty wasn’t having it. That Sonic had shared his abilities with the two and did not bring them to Checkpoint to make sure they could develop their skills safely left Mighty far to concerned. Though rosy put up a fight, he managed to get the two of them to Checkpoint. It was not the best start either as Rosy wanted to meet everyone and hear their stories while Tails found himself meeting Zooey who had more than few words for him for making her maintenance work the Tornado harder by attacking a rocket engine to it. Eventually things smoothed over and Zooey became Rosy and Tails’ agent in Checkpoint, though policy kept her from telling them where Sonic was at any given time no matter how much Rosy pestered her. Staying with Checkpoint at Mighty’s insistence Rosy and Tails would become exemplary Ring Hunters, a respectable if not exciting role as though Rings were finicky and no one knew how they worked or why, Ring Gates needed them to be built and function so the two slowly built a reputation for themselves. Mighty already having quite the reputation was free to go as he pleased and once he was confident that Rosy and Tails had settled in headed out in search of Sonic, something he could use to get Sonic to come to him, and to make sure that if Eggman was up to anything someone might know.

The funny thing about Sonic and Eggman though was that they were always bound to bump into each other at one point or another, even when Eggman would prefer they did not. After his defeat on the nameless island to Knuckles, Eggman went about compiling all of the data he managed to gather, and though he lamented losing almost all of his Ring data had more than enough to finally complete Metal Sonic. The only thing left he needed was what a dubbed a Chaos Factor to forge a Ring Bond between Metal Sonic and Sonic. Of course, he also had to repair Metal Sonic again, upgrade it to receive the Chaos Factor, and then test it to make sure that it was indeed Sonic’s equal, or even better. To that end, he sought out Mirage Island, a place where Little Planet was said to appear, even if it was not a tangible appearance like over Never Lake. It seemed the perfect place to work and Eggman sure enough found ancient ruins with hints to the Chaos Factor he needed. Thus he set up base and began his search while preparing to test the eventually completed Metal Sonic by putting out old Badniks that Sonic had already proved were failures, though adding a few new twists to test Metal Sonic’s adaptability.

Sonic had no clue what Eggman was up to when he arrived on Mirage Island by chance, but seeing Eggman’s old machines littering the island, and with the local fauna stuffed inside, he was quick to act. His testing grounds suddenly under attack by the wrong Sonic, Eggman had to scramble to meet his long-time foe. Unfortunately his little twists to his old designs were not enough to deter Sonic, and only by launching his incomplete low-orbital base was he able to pull Sonic away from Mad Gear Zone so that Metal Sonic might be completed in peace. Unfortunately Sonic still inflicted tremendous losses and Eggman lost his new, though much smaller, space station as well as great deal of the tests he had set up for Metal Sonic. It was not all a loss however as Sonic was unaware of why Eggman had chosen Mirage Island for his latest scheme. That meant that the Chaos Factor he was after was still untouched, though he had lost the machines to excavate it. That was fine though as the completed Metal Sonic was more than up to the task, a task that made him truly complete for as he absorbed the Chaos Factor his Ring Bond with Sonic was completed and the machine was non longer just a constructed copy of Sonic, but for all extents and purposed a robot Sonic. Eggman was overjoyed by his success and needed now only the opportunity to spoil Sonic’s fun and let him meet his perfect machine counterpart.

And that wraps up how the games that have occurred in the Ring Bond AU and the order. My apologies for the format and meandering approach, but I hope it helps paint a picture of the AU’s history. For a quick recap though before I wrap this up, the game effectively took place in the following order

SegaSonic the Hedgehog>>Sonic CD>>Tails Adventure>>Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)>>Sonic 2>>Sonic 3>>Sonic and Knuckles>>(Knuckles) Chaotix>>Sonic 4 Ep. I>>Sonic 4 Ep. Metal.

From here the Sonic Ring Bond AU will be going in its own direction. How the characters develop and grow is for the future, though I hope I’ll make something of it. If not, for now this AU is the one that my Rosy occupies. She has Sonic’s abilities and the desire to master them so that she can go on adventures with him and maybe even win his heart. Her shared idolization of Sonic has resulted in her and Tails becoming best friends, while Sonic is best friends with Mighty. Eggman has completed a version of Metal Sonic that is for all extents and purposes Sonic and is just waiting for the perfect opportunity to ruin his fun and gloat in victory. Meanwhile, the Battle Kukku Armada is still out there and desiring revenge against Tails, and Rosy leaving Fang in pursuit of Sonic and his lifestyle has left her and Sonic yet another crafter enemy who himself wants “compensation” for losing his treasure tracker. And all of this takes place in a world where Eggman’s robotics and engineering skills puts him decades ahead of the rest of constantly shifting world full of ancient ruins and legends barely hanging on to airship technology fueled by early industry. But with the help of Checkpoint, it is a world that is a home to many adventurers who live out their dreams of a lifetime of discovery.

Thank you to everyone who read to the end, and I welcome any question or suggestions you may have. For the sake of organization though, please send questions or suggestions through my ask and I’ll be glad to answer. Thank you again everyone for your time.
