The First Adventure
// lil lore dump as to when Shard and Silver first went to the past, and Blaze joined the team ^^ //
Tumblr media
General Shadow made the mission clear. Using the Time Stones that Shard's recon squad had gathered from Little Planet, both he and Silver would go back in time, gather the Chaos Emeralds and find out what drained them in order to save the future.
The Alliance is very clear about their orders: Do NOT change the past, else they risk rending themselves from existence and causing a Time Paradox. The only thing they're there to do is find answers: what happened to the chaos energy in the world and find a means of reversing the effects so they can fix the present day. General Shadow in particular is very, VERY adamant that changing the past isn't the answer. Though, if there is no other way to save the world, stopping the calamity before it strikes is their LAST RESORT.
Every time the team finds a chaos emerald, they're to gather data on it and then return to the future to share the data they find. General Shadow also firmly tells the duo that if they change anything in the past, he WILL know. With that, the duo set up to ship out, preparing the Time Stones for the jump into the past.
Though, before they leave, General Shadow takes Shard aside. He tells Shard something that Silver can't overhear, and has the robot swear to keep it a secret. If Shard really has changed for the better, then he'll know what to do when the time is right.
With that, the Time Stones are prepared, Silver and Shard each taking one for safe keeping, before leaping into the past for the first time. With a shout of "Chronos Control!" they both are whisked away through a beam of light, to a time before the calamity. Before eternal darkness and unending blizzards, where the sun is bright and the grass is green.
Shard instantly gets distracted by the scenery, because he never got to enjoy any of this before. A butterfly lands on his nose and he's completely enthralled in watching it.
Silver is.... similarly distracted, though not by the scenery. A splitting headache seems to attack him all at once, and he has to crumple to the ground as a torrent of memories from all across time seem to assault his senses all at once. This isn't the first time he's travelled through time, and the sudden onslaught serves to remind him of such things, giving him all the memories from his previous lives.
A future engulfed in fire. A future clogged with factory smoke. They slide into place alongside a future covered in endless winter like puzzle pieces sliding into place. This isn't the first time he's done this. He knows people in this time period, suddenly aware of old friends he probably has waiting for him in the past.
His gaze drifts over to Shard. He's never been in any of these ventures before, past or future. None of said friends would know him. Or, all things considered with all the things he knows now, like him. There are very few robots they're on good terms with, after all. So, it might be better if they stick to the plan and at the very least, keep Shard out of sight from the general public. They don't need to start fights in the middle of their mission.
Though, instead of leaping right into things, Shard suggests they explore a little instead. All of this isn't going to last forever, after all. They should enjoy it while they have the opportunity. Despite his initial protests that they still have a mission to do, Silver does eventually relent to getting to see the world together and explore a bit. The fresh breeze and morning sun are begging to be enjoyed by the hedgehog whose experiencing light and warmth in the outside world for the first time, despite what his jumbled memories are telling him.
And so, the pair run around the green, grassy fields. They explore the world through the day, laughing as a butterfly lands on Shard's nose, rolling down hills while curled up in spindashes (though Silver's still needs a bit of work, if you ask Shard), and racing around the same track of trees out in the forest to see whose faster.
Tumblr media
They're laughing and playing from dawn to dusk, and when the sun begins to set, Silver suddenly seems to panic. He grabs Shard by the arm, tugging at it intensely. "Shard! The sun, it's disappearing! We spent too much time goofing off and now we're too late to save the world!"
Shard only laughs, freeing his arm and ruffling the quills on top of Silver's head. "The sun isn't dying, stupid. It's only sunset."
"Sunset?"
"Yeah, the earth spins all the time, so now we're facing away from the sun. It'll come back in the morning."
"You're sure?"
"Promise." Shard chuckles. "For now, it's time for the other stars to come out and play."
The robot points upwards, toward the sky, where a thousand, tiny pinpricks of light begin to dot the atmosphere above them, like glitter sprinkled across a full canvas.
"Woah," Silver can't help but be rendered speechless as the stars come out. And that's when the pair learn about night, and the sound of crickets, and little fireflies in the woods that imitate the glow of stars in the darkness. Silver lets out a yawn, leaning against Shard for balance, and the robot lies them both down under a rocky cliff to sleep the rest of the night away.
[Entering sleep mode....]
[.....]
[... physical attack detected. Exiting Sleep Mode.]
Shard is jolted awake hours later with his head embedded in the cliff and Silver no longer leaning against him. Quick to curl into a ball and drill himself out of the rock (he hates being buried or submerged in anything), he leaps out of the mountain in battle mode, looking around for whatever threat attacked him while he was sleeping and took Silver away.
Sensors land on an unfamiliar presence. A female mobian of some sort, with purple fur, and clearly holding Silver hostage behind her. The mobian also has a smoldering fire at her fingertips, clearly aiming the blaze at Shard. In return, Shard crouches into a defensive position, warming up his arm cannon to blast her away and save Silver from the hostage taker.
The fire comes at him, and Shard leaps out of the way, blasting a hot laser of his own. The area quickly becomes a battlefield, the pair lobbing shots at each other and clashing against each other at high speed. One good turn deserves another, and it becomes increasingly clear that Shard and the mysterious purple stranger are equally matched. Seeing as Shard is modelled after one of the most powerful mobians to ever live, that is a hard feat to accomplish, and he finds himself begrudgingly impressed.
Tumblr media
Spindashes meet boosting flames that clash again and again repeatedly, a few trees in the area being sliced in half and burned to a crisp respectively as the two opponents continue attempting to slam into each other until one goes down.
"STOP FIGHTING!"
Though suddenly, their midair clash is grinded to a screeching halt as Shard finds himself suspended in midair. A look across the battlefield is enough to see the stranger is also dangling from nothing, a cyan glow enveloping them both.
Silver, both hands out in front of him, uses his powers to stop the pair from clashing again and wrecking the woods they were playing in hours ago any further than the fight already has. Shard runs a quick diagnostic now that he isn't distracted with fighting his enemy, and thankfully, Silver appears unharmed.
The hedgehog levels judgmental glares at both of them, keeping them suspended. "Blaze, Shard isn't holding me hostage." He declares pointedly.
"What?" The purple mobian declares, unconvinced. "Silver, that's a METAL SONIC. One of, if not THE most dangerous robot in Eggman's arsenal. You can't be so easily trusting of him just because he changed his colors."
"Hey!" Shard shouts from his own air jail. "I don't work for the Doc anymore! Haven't for over two hundred years! Now, what do YOU want with Silver!?"
"Shard, Blaze isn't holding me hostage either," Silver grumbles, finally seeing the root of this misunderstanding.
"Never heard of a Blaze in my entire life," Shard grumbles.
"That's probably because you were decommissioned for the Metal she mistook you for before she came to this dimension," Silver elaborates.
"This dimension, what??" Shard tilts his head.
Blaze looks between Shard and Silver, confusion growing. "Silver, the last time you travelled from the future to the past, you said that that period in time was fine. Did something happen to change that? I've never seen you come back in time with anyone else, let alone a robot like... that."
"I have a NAME, you know!" Shard snaps.
"I'm still orienting myself and getting used to the fact that this isn't the first time I've done this," Silver murmurs. "But yes, something did happen to turn the future bad. A calamity is coming and it's going to take all the light away from the world. Shard and I were sent back in time to find a way to bring the light back."
Blaze finally gives pause, releasing her combat ready posture to put a hand to her chin. "A world robbed of its light. That would line up with the strange visions I've been receiving since you vanished, last."
Silver perks up. "You know something about what's going to happen?"
"No direct information," Blaze admits. "But lately, my dreams have been plagued with a growing darkness, and a burning sensation in my chest that follows waking up from said dreams. It's like something buried within my soul is trying to warn me of something. Perhaps it is the calamity you are trying to research with your... companion."
Blaze levels another glare at Shard. Shard returns it in kind.
"Well, if you're here to find answers about it too, that means we're all on the same side, here." Silver points out. "Which means instead of trying to fight each other to the death, we'll make more progress if we work together instead."
Silver gives both Shard and Blaze expectant glances.
Shard softens up first and holds out his hand for a shake, dropping his battle mode and returning his eyes to their neon green color. "Silv's got a point, Blazey. Truce?"
"Don't call me Blazey."
Shard groans. "Party pooper."
Silver lets them both down once he's sure they're not going to gun for each other's throats the moment he does. Blaze reluctantly returns Shard's offered handshake, eyeing the robot warily.
"Truce."
Silver hugs the pair closer together. "Great! We're a team now. Let's save the world."
Tumblr media
"You know," Shard mentions. "A cool team of three like us is going to need an equally cool team name."
Blaze rolls her eyes. Silver's sparkle at the prospect.
"So, what do you guys think of Team Paradox?" Shard pitches with a sly smile. Because, if he tried to pitch it as Team Shard, Blaze would incinerate him and Silver would throw him back into the wall.
"I like it," Silver smiles.
"I suppose that works," Blaze sighs.
"Alright!" Shard grins. "Then let's save the world, Team Paradox!"

Tumblr media
"Guess you're right on that front. There's no fun if it's too easy." Shard admits. "And I've been having way more fun on this side of things than I ever did working for the old egghead."
Even if he still gets weird looks, he can't deny how much he's grown to appreciate the world around him. As Metal Sonic, he was ordered to destroy, to lure out Sonic and to eliminate without hesitation.
As Shard, living in a world where everything has been destroyed, and no Eggmen to boss him around at every turn, he's grown to love what he now misses in his own world. Green grass and tall trees, butterfly wings and spring breezes. Warm sunlight and cool moonlight and everything in between.
No wonder Sonic wants to protect this. No wonder Shard's now driven to save it for his world, too. Which is why he wants to change for the better, in the first place.
Tumblr media
"Guess I just can't help wishing it was a bit more simple. But, at the end of the day, I did hurt people. Suppose earning something like forgiveness is going to be a long ways away, and I hate having to be patient for stuff."
He taps his foot irritably at the thought of waiting for people to like him, even if patience is necessary for what he's trying to achieve. He's not the most patient robot after all, seeing who he's modeled after, and he doesn't have the same good rep that would just let him run around doing what he wants freely without being seen as a threat.
The world changes like the winds at Sonic's back, as if the hedgehog is willing the earth to spin in every step. Shard may be near equal in his own way, but the world does not change for him. That is where the difference between him and Sonic lies.
{➹} – SHARD WASN'T THE first reformed badnik the hedgehog had met, and despite some misgivings the hero had told himself that even the most unlikely of people could change. He never thought he would be friends with some of said robots, but life was funny like that.
He tried not to think about it too much.
Tumblr media
"Trust me, some people only see what they want t' see. 'M not saying she won't come around, but 's harder for some people than others," he said, pausing a moment before continuing earnestly. "And, no offense, but robots aren't high on the list of trustworthy individuals in most people's minds."
Regardless of how harsh the words could have sounded, the hero was nothing but reassuring in the moment.
"There would be no reward in it if it was too easy. You're going against your nature, and the fact you're upset 's not going as easily as you want it t' says a lot." It did to the hedgehog anyway. He could always give credit where it was due in circumstances like Shard's.
The line between good and bad wasn't always as clear as some people thought it was. It took a special talent to see where the boundaries were.

"I've NEVER seen you look this bad, and we used to fight to the death all the time." Shard points out.
[Running Diagnostics....]
[Damaged Voice Box detected. Discoloration detected. Overheating detected. Low power mode detected.]
He's doing his best to understand Sonic's affliction by putting it in a way his robotic systems understand. "So uh... mind telling me what you're doing out here on low power mode? Shouldn't you be recharging your batteries if you're in this condition."
Shard might not get organics all that well, but he knows how useless he is without any energy: a lifeless hunk of metal that can't even move on it's own. He doesn't want to know the equivalent for living creatures, especially someone as essential to time and space as Sonic is.
Tumblr media
@silver-heroes-rp asks: "You look like hell" [muse of your choice] ( CARING FOR THE SICK PROMPTS. / accepting! )
Tumblr media
“ I feel like hell. ” Sonic spoke and his voice cracked. He was having trouble speaking due to his severe sore throat, and he's close to losing his voice as well. Which is not good for someone who's a chatterbox! “ Ugh. Wh... ” The blue hedgehog rubbed at his throat as if coaxing the words out: “ What the hell do you want, Shard? ” Sonic practically squeaked, voice cracking, his vocal chords working overtime here just to speak!

Enchanter anon appears with a gift! A bracelet that will allow you to swap between your current self and an organic form at will! It's pressed into your hands and then they're gone before any objections can be made!
Tumblr media
Shard holds the strange bracelet and the note attached to it describing its effects with curiosity. If to be believed, then this artifact was capable of miracles he's never even seen the Chaos Emeralds perform, let alone the tiny fragment of the gem in his chest that grants him consciousness and self awareness.
Still. He's argued on end about how tired he is of living a lie. The reason he doesn't use his nanite shell to LOOK organic is for that same reason. The reason he vehemently denies any connection to being Sonic at all, and that he's just modelled after a hedgehog.
And yet, perhaps for the same reasons why he doesn't delete Sonic's bio data despite his desperation to be rid of his connections to the hedgehog, he still stuffs the bracelet where he keeps his time stone.
... Shard can now turn into a living, mobian hedgehog at will.

Shard, you will never be able to live like Mobians. Not for any ideological, or philosophical nonsense. But your very existence as a robot is incompatible with them. And you really need to stop pretending otherwise.
Send my muse anons pretending to be someone they care about. The twist: make these anons as heartbreaking, disappointing, or anger-inducing as possible.
Tumblr media
"You really think I don't know that? I know I'm never going to fit in with them. I know I'm never going to understand. I could use these nanites to change into an organic looking shape, but the reason I don't is because I'm SO tired of living a lie."
"Robots don't grow. They don't change. They're built to be one thing, and one thing only. And I couldn't even get THAT right. As much as I yearn for freedom, I'll never truly be free. So you don't have to tell me what I already know."

Sorry, Silver. But the future will never be saved, no matter how much you try. Your efforts will be in vain. So why bother trying at all? Why???? The world will burn and you may be the lasting survivor to watch it crumble.
Send my muse anons pretending to be someone they care about. The twist: make these anons as heartbreaking, disappointing, or anger-inducing as possible.
Tumblr media
"I don't care! The future could fall a hundred times, but I will ALWAYS do my best to save it. Whatever it takes, I will find another solution. If I've learned anything, the future isn't set in stone. I can always change it, there has to be a way to save it, and I WILL find it! Every time!"

Pretend to give them bad news, pretend to break up with them, pretend to make an upsetting confession - as long as it hurts, it’s fair game.
