"This is the place, hope Sally girls right. . ." Sonic Stopped to a dead halt and slowly entered the dark Cavern. He took a flash light from his brown backpack and turned it on, he viewed a strange black substance that seem to reflect the light off into different areas of the cave. "What in the name of Mobian is this?" Deeper he entered into the cave, he wandered a half hour, partly frustrated and somewhat dumbfounded. "Dang, this is like a labyrinth, How did Sally expect me to find that rock material if I cant even find my way out?" Sonic mumbled. He didnt have time to complain anymore, for once he said that he stepped upon weak ground, under his weight it collapsed sending him plummeting below, screaming all the way. The impact wasn't that hard, he was only out for a few minutes, he groaned and slowly opened his eyes, there was a blinding flash when he did so, Sonic screamed again and shielded his eyes. <> "W...Who are you?!" Sonic screamed out. "How do you know about me!" <> Sonic rose from his resting place and looked around, he saw a room covered in black crystal. In the Center was an Emerald of Black. <> "Where are you," Spoke Sonic in his typical voice trying to conceal his fear. <> "Better yet what are you." Retorted Sonic, almost obeying he walked toward the crystal and gazed into its center. <> Sonic Stepped back. "Sorry pal, I don't help evil. I Should take you back to the Guardians so they can put you in a safer place, if old Sni-vly got his hands on your we'd all be in trouble." Sonic reached out for the gem. <> The crystal paused as Sonic did. If it had a face it would be grinning evilly right now. <> A dark mist started to gather around the room, if Sonic saw it, he paid no heed. Sonic Shook his head shocked and somewhat interested. <> The mist circled Sonic, bring strange ripples of ecstasy on him, seeping deeply into his pores. He made a low moaning sound and fell to one knee trying to retrain this strange growing pleasure tha t slowly aroused him. <> "P. . . Please. . .take it away. . . .to intense. . . .to strange. . . please." Sonic begged. He felt so strange as the hand of evil touch him in ways he never felt before. It was arousing, energetic, and so pleasing to the mind. <> Sonic was now on his knees, wet and drenched from his body fluids and sweat. He looked up at the Crystal and prayed to all of Mobius what he is about to do will be forgiven. . . . * * * "Aunt Sally, how is Sonic doing?" Tails asked as she left Sonic's room. "Well Honey, Sonic was found just out of the Great Forest, I don't know how he managed to get here with the dehydration that happened to him, but a few days rest and he'll be O.K." "what was that crystal he had in his backpack?" Sally didnt reply to that immediately. "Aunt Sally? how did he get so dehydrated?" that question made Sally blush red. Tails had seen that blush before and almost immediately realized why. "Oh," he said shyly, Tails decided to drop that subject and back to the gem. "So what is the Crystal?" "We don't know yet Tails." Sally started to walk away. "Isn't it time for your lessons with Angela?" "Yeah." "Well, you better go, then after tell her I need to talk to her after." * * * "So Angela, is it what I think it is?" Squeaked Sally. Angela took a close look into the crystal and gave a blank face. She tried to casts magic on it but it just bounced back. "Interesting, so very interesting." She tapped on the Gem. "Sally I don't know. There was never a record of a Black Chaos Emerald. I cant be for certain if this is or isn't a CHAOS Emerald." She turned away. "I think only Sonic can tell us anything." "but He ez in ze Camera." Said Antoine. "Coma Antoine, Coma." replied Tails. "Perhaps if I go back to my village and ask around, perhaps I can find someone who knows of this Emerald. I shall return freedom fighters." Angela Chanted and disappeared into a yellow light. "I wish she would teach me that spell." whispered tails. No sooner were his words spoken that Bunny rushed in with a worried look on her face. "Y'all better come quick! Sugar-Hog's Going wild!" * * * "Let me Go!! Let me Go!! Don't make me kill you!" Sonic screamed out to Rotor who held him down in the bed. "Easy Sonic! Calm down! your back at KnotHole!" Rotar tried to calm Sonic down but only seemed to agitate him more. Sally and the others arrived in time to see them struggling. "Sonic! Sonic calm down!" Sally told him. "Sally! Make him let me go! I need to get my backpack!" He struggled more. "Why?!" "Please Bring me my backpack!" Tears Started to form in Sonic's eyes. Sally saw this and started to worry. "Tails go get his backpack." "Yes Aunt Sally" moments later tails returned with Sonic's backpack. Sonic snatches its greedily from his paws. He tore it open and looked in, his eyes darkened. "No!! where is it?! where is my Emerald!?" He screeched. "I have it Sonic," Whispered sally. Sonic glared at her hatefully. "to observe it, we didnt know how you ended up the way you did, we thought perhaps the Emerald was the key. Where did you get it." "Give me the Emerald back. . ." Sonic croaked. "It holds the Key to killing Snively." "what do you mean?" "Trust me Sally. . . I have plans." * * * < Nine Days Later > "HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE?!" Snively Snarled. Sally, Sonic, Tails, Antoine, Rotor, Bunny, and Dulcy dispatched his SWATbot's with ease. Sonic slowly advanced on him. "Well Snively, your time is over at last.....now... are you ready to die?" "You wouldn't dare kill me hedgehog. . ." "Wouldn't I?" Sonic darted to him and backhanded him hard. A powerful force filled that blow, Snively went flying into the wall. Sonic laughed a strange demonic laugh. It brought chills to the others. "Sonic don't hurt him anymore he must stand trial. For the sake of justice." Said Sally. Sonic glared at her then at Snively. "your justice is nothing to me Sally. . . Nothing. Once he is dead I can take control." Sonic Grinned evilly his eyes almost glowing with a red evil light. "Sonic . . . what did you say?" Sally was shocked at what she heard. "You heard me Sally, I have plans, and the first one is killing this bastard and ruling. With you by my side Sally. The rest of you my followers and close command." "Sonic, are you crazy, the right of the rule goes to the King of Acorn, my father. . ." "He isn't here is he Sally. . .You'd have to take control . .. .oh I'm sure you wouldn't want that. . ." he sneered, he picked up Snively and spit in his eye, again he threw him. Snively cried out and backed away gasping, tasting blood leaking from his mouth. "Yes. . .Snively, fear me, that look of fear in your eyes, god its so intoxicating....show me more of that fear." Sonic picked him up and snarled. "Sonic! Put him down! what are you doing!?" Tails screamed, He threw his hand up in the air and pointed to Sonic, a blast of Light shot from them and slammed into Sonic. He just glared at tails and threw Snively at him. "SO! you don't like it either eh? heheheh very well. . . does anyone wish to join me as I take control?" there was no answer, no sound either but the sound of Antoine's blade being drawn. "I see. . . .then you have created your own fates. Feel the pow er of the Black Chaos Emerald!" Sonic back away from them and laughed again, a sudden dark feeling engulfed him, his body began to metamorphosed, his quills became as dark as night, his eyes lost their once loving look, changed into a soulless glare. A g ray smoke emitted from his now sinical looking body, he rose his hands and an explosion of Fire became. . . . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chapter 1: Blacken City ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A small baby rabbits came out of the market and walked towards the middle sidewalk. The grimy sidewalk was covered in oil and slime from decrepit air. She looked up at the red and black sky, hover crafts flew above with a loud humming. she shivered an d continued south to her part of town, the bad side. How she hated to enter here, were your life could end in a few seconds. A pack of four wolfs gazed at her and grinned, she half wondered if they would rape her or eat her . . . .she came to the conclu sion they would most likely do both. She walked faster, not knowing this only flared the excitement for wolfs who now were following her. She turned back slightly and saw them advancing on her, she let out a scream and began to run. They gave chase wit h much glee in their eyes, the rabbits already dropped her packages and ran into an alley, she gasped to see walls blocking her escape. She started to double back but the wolfs had already cornered her. "Please. . .don't do this." "But you see...." spoke one of the wolfs "We're a might hungry. Were also a few other things. Don't worry we'll be 'gentle'" the four wolfs cackled. One grabbed the rabbit and threw her to the floor,he started forcing her legs apart when there came a loud howl, but not from one of their kind. From atop a building dropped a tall mid-build two tailed fox, he wore dark gray and black armor. "Leave the girl be. . ." he spoke. "leave her be or answer to me." he drew his gray blade and grinned. The wolfs backed away, they only had daggers not even a reach unlike the blade this fox held. "You win for now Gray Fox, but I will be back. . ."roared the leader, he pointed to his friends and they left them. Gray Fox turned back to the rabbit and helped her up. "Are you O.K.?" he whispered. She nodded, holding on to him for balance. ""Uhh my name is Miles, Miles Prowers, my friends call me 'Tails'" the girl stepped back and stared at him. "So....you are the wanted one?" she nearly collapsed from disbelief "You are the one the leader wants to destroy? One of the original Freedom Fighters?" Tails nodded. "ohmygod, why are you in the city? you could be killed!" "I come around her to help a few people, I stay on the roofs to keep a low profile, I just gotta worry about the Hover Crafts, and the Old 'Evil Eyes'" "You mean the Spy units?" Tails nodded again. "thank you for saving me." "Just was near by. I recommend you get back to wherever it is you were heading. Do you need some help getting there?" "No. . .I'm O.K., really I am. Thank you so much...." she started to walk away when he called out, she turned around and he threw her a pouch filled with SonCoins, she smiled at him and walked away. Tails holstered his blade again and looked up, he twi rled his tails and hovered back onto the roof, thinking of what Antoine's gonna say once he tells em that he just gave all his hard earned SonCoins too some girl. * * * "Are your crazy?!" Screamed Antoine, Tails had met him in part of the great forest just outside of the city, Antoine was shaking with anger. "Tails of all the things to do! I mean giving her half would have been O.K., but all of it?! what are we gonna d o without money?" "Ummm go hungry?" "Some Leadership skills you have Tails," Antoine sat down and laid back on a tree. "Oh well, fasting I'm sure will be great." "You need it T'wan," Chuckled Tails. "Hey, its Tony not T'wan. that ended when Sonic took over. Just like the old accent, and tupie" "I wonder if we can blame the Chaos Emerald or Sonic Himself." "Gee that's hard. . .the emerald isn't even in control of him." "But it planted the seed of evil in his soul" "There you go again with that seed thing, Angela really did get to you huh?" "If it wasn't for her I wouldn't have been able to get you out of there alive." "true, sonic did kinda lose it that day huh?" "well killing bunny, Rotor, Snively and Dulcy. . .yeah I think so." "Your forgetting the Princess..." "You know he didnt kill her," "She's his slave, and you know what he does to her everyday. . .I'd say he killed her soul, if not her body. The princess will never live a normal life again." Antoine looked down. "Neither will we Tony." * * * Later that night the two foxes returned to their hideaway, tails called it "KnotHole 2" seeing how instead of it being an upper ground hideaway it was below, deep enough where none of Sonic's tracers could ever find them and the fact that it looked much like Knothole use to before Sonic destroyed it. Tails retired to his room and quickly went to bed, feeling a tad bit ill at the fumes he inhaled in Sonitroplis. He fell into a deep sleep and a dream of the past began to form. . . <<"sonic your can be serious!" Tails cried out. "You killed them! you killed all of them!" "Indeed little brother, now its your turn" Sonic advanced, but stopped dead cold. "Unless...." tails uncovered his eyes and looked at him. "Unless?" "Unless you join me, you are one of the greatest magician that has ever walked upon Mobius, with the new found power of mine and your we can crush the foolish Guardians and take what should be the most powerful beings rights to own! The Chaos Emeralds Ta ils! think of the power ! we can rule this world with fear to all!" Sonic cackled again, he stared at tails. "Sonic, why? why have you killed them all? why are you doing these insane acts?" Sonic's eyes darkened. "Please don't do this Anymore sonic." "Your a fool like the rest of them Fox, prepare to die like the rest then." Sonic threw a bolt of lightning at him, but a strange force blocked it, from a white portal appeared Angela, Tails guardian. "Go Tails! I shall take care of this hedgehog" "But Angela! please !!" "Go!! and take the only survivers!" She pointed to Antoine, Tails nodded and picked him up. he remembered dragging Antoine out of the room and down to the hangar where their means of escape lied ready for take off, when he heard a scream of pain, a fema les scream and the laughter of Sonic. He and Antoine escaped barley, tears gushing from Tails eyes, he knew she was dead. They landed in the great forest, he dragged Antoine back to Knothole and had the others look at him, but there wasn't much time fo r anything another light blasted from Robotropis and headed towards~~>> "Tails wake up! I have some interesting news to tell you! something that might help us!" Antoine banged on his door, Tails woke up and sighed, glad he didnt have to relive it again. * * * "So where did this information come from?" Tails ask Antoine. "Our spies. Knuckles, he found out and decided that he should go after it, that perhaps he could cause this horror to end." "How? by taking the Stones?" "No, by killing Sonic." Tails mouth dropped open. "No! he cant! Sonic played a part in this timeline! if he kills him the Sinvely might go on ruling and we might die!" "Zut Alor! You are right! Damnation, how are we gonna get Knuckles to stop?" "We are gonna have to go after him." Tails thought for a moment. "You said he's going to the Little Planet?" "Yes, the Time Stones are kept under heavy guard by Sonic's SWATbots. Leave it to Sonic to have destroyed this wonderful planet and chain another to it." "He's like Robotnik incarnate eh?" "Worst, in my opinion I would rather have Robotnik there then Sonic, at least Robotnik took killing as a last resort." Ant smile slightly "sides at least we can take Robotnik out if we ever got to him alone, Sonic is a different matter entirely." "Whyyyy Antoine. . .are you developing a grudging respect for Sonic?" "me!? Yeah right. . . .uhhh do you think we should get ready for tomorrow trip to the Little Planet?" "Yeah, its best." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chapter 2: Steel and Snare ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sonic sat upon his dark colored throne and thought for a moment. The room was black and very musty, somewhat seems like a fires had died out. He looked up at his hired help and smiled peering at certain part of her. "So then," he got up and dusted off his purple and black cape. "Will you take this simple job? after all its good pay." he smiled darkly at her. The girl started to come into the dim light, her pink quills drooped down over her red cape, she wore a purple shirt and light gray pants, her bo ots were black and green-blue socks. She nodded, "Very good, now, I know you wont do it for pennies tell me what's your price." "You know what I want Sonic, you have the blade Magic of Mobius, It's been an heir loom in my fathers family for generations, I want it back and I want it now." "Perhaps I shall give it to you, but I want the heads of Tails and Antoine first, on a bloody pike." She glared at him. "That's right, kill them and bring them here, I trust that isn't a difficult job for the Huntress Sonya." "I'm a Treasure Hunter Sonic, I don't kill unless I have too." "Treasure Hunter. . .ha! you sound like that foolish Human of Legends Locke Cole." "I modeled part of myself after him." she grinned. "He kicked the butt of the tyrant of yore Kefka, So I guess I'm the Locke and your The Kefka." Sonic sneered at her. "Get Going Treasure Hunter, Red Claw that pesky echidna was heading North East towards the Great lake, most likely he is heading for the Little Planet." "Anything special there that he wants?" "Yes but its well guarded under my mirror images Self." "Mecha-Sonic?" "Correct, Best beware not to cross him. I'll send a message to him so he will not attack you, to a point that is. Try anything funny like getting those Stones and you will pay." "Ohhh I wouldn't think of it Sire." She bowed and headed for the door. Sonic's eyes flashed red. "Wench, Sally where are you!" He screamed. Sally Entered in her tattered clothing. She gazed at him and bowed. "Yes sire?" "Bring yourself to me." Sonic went back to his throne, she stood near him and looked deep into his eyes. The pupiless gaze brought chills to her body. "Tails has eluted me often hasn't he?" ". . .Y...Yes Sire." she whispered, expecting a blow, but it never came. "Not this time, the plan is in motion, and there's no stopping it now...." Sonic looked between her legs. "Soon I'll even have an heir to my throne" He patted her stomach, again Sally shivered. "After our little 'Celebrations' your most likely pregnant. " Sally turned away from him her own eyes filled with a hateful look. he called it a celebration, she called it rape. "Might I acquire how M'lord will kill the Gray Fox?" "A Bounty Hunter of unnatural powers is after him, Sonya Sho, I belive her name is, daughter of Robotnik." "Your sister?" "Yes. She will do her job well, if she ever wants her Blade of Mobius magic back." "Your horrible....sending Sonya, one of Tails old childhood friends to destroy him." She whispered out. He grinned an evil lewd smile. "Aren't I. . . perhaps this will prove to be his Ultimate Undoing!" He cackled twistedly. * * * "Err To quote my old self Tails, 'I am to be thinking that perhaps we not should be doing this.'" "For once your quote is correct bud, but we have to do this or die, sides this might actually help us if we can find the time Stones." Tails has equipped his armor again and waited for Antoine to finish putting on his. Ant placed his white leather shir t on, his brown leather pants, his black shoulder pads, and picked up his cutlass blade. The yellow handle shinned brightly, as the day it was forged. he put it in the brown hoisted and stepped out. "Well, I'm ready you have the meal rations? just in case we don't find the typical Chile dog stand in the forbidden planet?" "Yup I got 'em" now shall we be off? "but of course, Sides who knows where Knuckles is now...wonder if he knows that island is forbidden?" * * * Indeed did Knuckle know that this island was forbidden he took care not to be seen by the SWATbots, his black ninja like jump suit pressed tightly against his muscles. The black mask shifted slightly as he grinned, SWATbots were everywhere, but most f acing away from him. Palm Tree Panic was the first zone he had to cross to get even remotely inside the planet. <> he thought <> Knuckles laughed and leaped from the tree he was in to the closes SWATbots head, smashing it to a pulp. He turned to the rest and showed hi s shinny red metal claws. They started to to fire at him but Red Claw was to fast, he dodged to the side and took refuge behind a tree, the lasers ripped part of the trunk, Knuckles slammed his claws into it and push against it, it started to collapses a nd right atop of the bots. Knuckles dusted himself off and laughed. "Well onto the next section, I'm surrrrrrre I'll have company there." * * * Antoine and Tails had reached Palm Tree panic only hours after Knuckles had left it. the wreckage was quite noticeable. They smiled slightly happy that at least nothing living was killed. They crossed the terrain with ease and entered the portal to th e well known Collision Chaos Zone, the place glew brightly with neon lights, Tails saw bots at the distance fighting something, but he couldn't tell what. "do you think that's Knuckles?" "Perhaps, but there's no real way of telling unless we haul tail." "Might be too late, maybe I should go ahead." "Go then hurry to see if it is Knuckles." Tails nodded and flew up, he quickly headed toward the place to see, only to discover it was a young strange looking mammal, she was a light peach colored fur, her hair was light sky blue, and she wore a pink out fit, she screamed and kicked as the SWATbots started to drag her away. Tails stopped in mid-flight and started to chant, he uttered some sort of phrase and screamed out. "Mertron!!" a wave of magical fire burn and scorched the bots to sunder. The girl looked up at him and smiled slightly.. "Are you O.K.?" "Yes I am, thank you uhh...." "My names Miles, but people call me Tails for obvious reasons." The girl looked behind him and grinned. "Gee wonder why....well my name is Locy Hottovy." Tails looked at her closely, she wore a tightly outfit and looked something like a koala. "Uhh excuse me for asking but....what are you?" "oh, I'm half koala, half wolf, and half Echidna. I'm what Sonic creates in his spare time. I'm a tubie." Tails backed away. "So your working for him eh?" "Well I have to, in fact my mission is to find a Echidna name Knuckles. My prime programming is search and kill." "Do you honestly think you can kill Knuckles the well known assassin named Red Claw?" "I must try, or Sonic will kill me, I don't really want to kill him, he has done nothing to me." "then forget it," "there will be no place I can hide against Sonic's wrath." "I'll protect you!" "Who do you think you are to try and overrule the order of the Dark one Sonic?" "I'm not a Light one but I'm not a Dark One, I am the Gray one. . .actually the name is Gray fox, cause of the armor and all." "Ahhh so you are Great fox, you were once comrade with Lord Sonic." "I was extremely close to his highness. I'm now his worst enemy for 9 years." Locy remained quiet for sometime, until she looked at Tails again. "I shall join, might I ask where are you heading?" "We also are trying to find Knuckles to stop him from using the Time Stone to kill Sonic." "Wont that change the time line of our planet?" "Yup that's why we gotta stop him." He held out his hands to the girl, Locy took them and was lifted up. "Your light as a feather aren't you?" "It comes from being a tubie, you don't eat to much." Tails flew Locy back to Antoine where he introduced her and chatted a little more on the whereabouts of Knuckles. They decided to go west past Tidal Tempest and into Quartz Quadrant. * * * Sonya hoofed it over to Palm Tree panic and noticed the destruction and wondered who had done it. She inspected a fallen tree and saw sharp looking knuckle like prints. She smiled slightly and followed the direction of chaos. As she did so she started to fall into the old memory lane. . . <<"Knuckles you know how much I love you, its not my fault that I care for Tails as much as I do you." Sonya looked at the lord of the floating island and slowly silently started to cry. "Sonya I cannot stay, the island needs protection, and I must be there for it." Knuckles looked at his island. "Please come with me. Bring Tails if you need to." "I cant ask him to leave all his friends. I know he wont, oh please knuckles. . ." Knuckles shook his head, his eyes showing his yearning to be with her. "I'm so sorry Sonya," "Ohh Knuckles, why must I be cursed with you, my father had to torture me with the gift of life." she lost all her dignity at that point and broke down. "damn him, damn you knuckles....damn myself for loving you and Tails so much." "This island is a home for hundreds of animals Sonya, my duty calls me, as much as I wish I can forget it, I cannot....my fathers wish must be honored." "My father, Robotnik wished me to help him destroy you and the freedom fighters, instead I didnt and became your friend, and what I thought was more then friendship." she croaked out. Knuckles turned away, feeling a tear in his eye. "I broke it cause I loved you to much to ever harm you again, yet it seems you cannot give up your duty for me. I gave up my father, my so called family in Robotroplis for you, yet you cannot give up your damn island for me!" she got up, her eyes now like fire. "Fine Knu ckles, Then its over this love can never be. not when I cannot be with you all the time. Tails is much like a brother or or a son to me! and I will not give him up like I did my father for you." She walked away, turning back only to spit on the ground he protected, then walked out of his life for quite some time.>> Sonya felt like crying at the memory, how much she missed him now. How dispite all her problems, dispite all of his they managed to get together again and rekindle their love's fire. Until that horrible day Sonic took over, she was so sure Knuckles had died when her brother Sonic Shinned his Atomic black matter ray at the Floating island destroying most of it, causing it to sink into the sea. She remembered finding herself on the shore, drenched and almost dead. She was luckily the Western Coast fre edom fighters saved her tail, she lost her morpher and now had to begin anew, with news of the main Freedom Fighters destroyed and sonic taking control her heart sank lower and lower, she had lost all hope until there was word of a two Tailed fox, and a r ed echidna still alive and causing her brother grief, with that she knew she must find them, for nine years she searched, becoming trained with blades and watching the world change into that of something out of a game she played in her past years as a h uman. She befriended a dying Guardian and optioned the power of a Chaos Emerald. She started to learn the gift of magic and always followed her heart to find them both. She realized that the only way to get information on them was to help her brother, he made her do many an evil thing, but she did it to find Knuckles after two years of true horror with Sonic she must now face Tails. Finding these Knuckle marks are the best thing to happen to her In a long time. . . . . . . <> ~~Coming Soon~~~~ PART 2: ". . . .JUST A MATTER OF TIME. . . . ."
