Sonic AU Idea

Y’all remember the Metal Virus in IDW? Of course you do what am I talking about

Well lots of people were all “oh imagine the angst if sonic got fully corrupted!”

Has anyone considered the idea of a Zombot Sonic… not attacking innocents? And I don’t mean in the “oh but there’s still good in him 🥺” way. He’ll still attack anyone in his way, but imagine that unlike other Zombots, Sonic isn’t aiming for infection of just anyone.

No, imagine a Zombot Sonic whose biggest target is Dr. Eggman himself.

Let’s say this happens during Sunset City’s invasion. Sonic becomes completely corrupted much to his friends’ horror and yet- instead of attacking the survivors, he runs off. (Unlike Shadow, Sonic’s speed isn’t enabled by his shoes. His speed is a physical aspect, and it’s established than any physics capabilities of victims are carried over to Zombot form.)

I like to imagine this takes place when Shadow arrives. The change here is that Sonic picks up that Shadow isn’t taking his warnings seriously and—instead of running like intended—spins around to try and impress upon him the severity. Sonic argues, exhaustion and frustration clouding his mind. But Shadow still won’t listen.

Shadow turned back to the imminent threat, ignoring the garbled frustrations of his rival.

He heard Sonic growl, his voice talking on an electric warble. “Why won’t you just listen to m-“

Silence. Then, a gasp and screams from the survivors. Shadow glanced over his shoulder… and his eyes widened in surprise.

“He’s one of them!”

“He failed! Sonic’s failed!”

“I-If Sonic couldn’t fight ‘em, what hope do we have?”

“Who’s gonna save us!”

“We’re all gonna die!”

“Everyone! Please calm down and get inside the truck!” Rouge yelled from somewhere within.

But Shadow could only stare. Sonic had become a Zombot and gazed at the other hedgehog with a coldness he’d never seen grace the hero’s face.

The situation just got much, much worse.

Shadow readied his battle stance.

Yet- Yet Sonic didn’t move. Not at first. He snarled but, instead of leaping at Shadow, he turned his head toward the west… and took off.

Shadow continues fighting, this time being far more cautious, and helps the transport truck escape. Shadow is then the one tasked with stopping Sonic, as the only one who can match his speed. (Since Sonic is high level threat, it’s doesn’t take much to convince). Using Sonic’s communicator, they’re able to track his coordinates, but there’s no rhyme or reason to his path… at first.

“Its almost like he’s… searching for something.” Tails pondered.

Shadow gets there and Eggman tries placing the agent between himself and Sonic. Sonic charges at Shadow… but then completely runs around him and at the doctor. Shadow tried fighting, but quickly realizes that Sonic’s ignoring him in favor of trying to infect Eggman.

See, Sonic has been fighting Eggman practically his whole life—it’s second nature at this point—and, let’s be honest, Sonic was wracking up quite the anger directed at the doctor. Because this is fanfiction, let’s say that this instinct somewhat influences Zombot Sonic.

Zombot Sonic is the biggest threat at this point. Not just because of his physical prowess, but also because his version of the virus is so mutated, it infects at a higher rate than its sister-mutation. The one solace that Sonic’s friends have?

That Zombot Sonic’s sole target is Eggman.

On one hand, no one would feel any pity for Eggman to fall at the hands of his own virus. On the other hand… If Eggman’s infected, who would Zombot Sonic target next?

So it kinda becomes into this weird thing of both keeping Eggman uninfected while also using him as bait.

I think the idea of Zombot Sonic being able to track down Eggman could be potentially terrifying. Constantly on the move. Nothing stopping him. No matter where Eggman runs, no matter where Eggman hides; Zombot Sonic can and will find him.

Zombie Terminator Sonic.

No Hope-Sonic IDW

So this is heavily inspired by the metal virus from the IDW comics! This is AU where things don’t exactly work out for Sonic. Yes this is more angst.

~~ 

There was no one left. Everyone was gone. Tails, Amy, Rouge, Knuckles Shadow even Silver and Blaze…they were all gone. Even little Cream and Charmy had been affected. So why was he still running? The blue blur sighed. He was tired. So tired. He couldn’t keep fighting this. There was no point. There wasn’t gonna be a way to save everyone. Especially with the smartest person he knew now a zombot. 

He’d been running for what felt like forever just nonstop running. He’d thought he was incapable of being tired, yet here he was. 

Everyone always saw him as a hero. He was a savior to most, but he wasn’t a hero. He’d failed. He’d failed to protect those he loved. Their final sane moments rang through his memory. The hope in Tails’ eyes as he went to fight off the hoard so Sonic could escape. Like he knew the blue blur would find some way to save them all. The quick kiss Amy had placed on his lips before she went to attempt to rescue Tails…sure he may not entirely like Amy like that but….his lips still burned with the memory of her kiss. Knuckles…he’d foolishly run into the fray making Sonic promise to protect the master emerald knowing he wouldn’t make it back. 

They were all gone. They were all infected, and there was no way the hero of Mobius could save them. It was all his fault. He’d helped to spread this insane virus. He’d started it foolishly thinking himself cured. Little did he know. 

Sonic choked back a sob as he ran. He already missed everyone. He felt like a failure. He WAS a failure. This was his fault. If anyone here deserved to be infected it was him. He should just stop running and let it take over. Let Eggman win. After all…there was no hope. There was no way he could save everyone on his own. Not with this virus already spreading quickly through his body. Besides he was so tired. He needed to rest. 

After a bit more running he finally stopped. He finally stopped running. His legs shaking from suddenly not moving. He was standing atop a hill looking over his former home. Looking over the landscape that was itself infected with this virus. He sighed hugging himself as he succumb to this virus. 

“I’m sorry…” These were the last words the hero spoke before he lost himself. Before he fully became a zombot. Eggman had finally won.

There truly was no more hope.

Nightmare Coated in Metal

A comic I made specifically to fulfill my own need for catharsis

[one-time-i-dreamt]

I got infected by the metal virus from Sonic IDW and was actively turning into a zombot, but everyone told me I was being dramatic.
