#now Maddie wants to know where Sonic is going and what he's getting up to

[guardian-of-da-gay]

Knuckles Wachowski, not used to having to answer to adult authority, has a tendency to disappear and not say where he's going. He doesn't do it to be a bad boy he's just... unintentionally a bad boy. And asking where he's been afterward doesn't really help because it goes something like this:

"So where'd you go?"

"I visited a forest with most impressive trees! I saw a large bird."

"How far away are these impressive trees?"

"Hmm. Not far, I think."

Finally Maddie lends him her fitness tracker with strict orders that he not take it off. She gets up the next morning to see her phone flooded with generic app notifications: Congrats on running 1 mile! Congrats on running 50 miles! Congrats on running 100 miles! Its not even 7am! This is how she finds out he does 'perimeter patrols' multiple times a night.

A week later he cheerfully relays that he visited the impressive trees again. She checks the app. The Redwoods. He's talking about the California Redwoods. A thousand miles away. 'Not far' her ass! Now she's kind of worried where Sonic goes when he reports he's 'going for a run'.

I think the theme of "home", while not always in the forefront, is something that interests me about the Sonic Movie Universe (in a similar way it interested me during Prime)

For Movie!Sonic, home is where you make it first and where your family is second. After his guardian died, he presumably jumped from place to place, and it was a while before he had a stable home. He made himself a home on earth and fell in love with the land and the culture. But you get the sense that as long as he's in hiding and ostracized all the time, it never fully feels like home. So it's important that he got to really experience earth and living in Movie 1 with Tom. It's important that he made earth his home, and then made the Wachowski household his base. No matter where he goes on earth and beyond, he has a family he chose and who chose him he can come back to and be himself around. "Home" for Movie!Sonic began with necessity, progressed due to his growing attachment to earth and what it offers, and fully settled in with him having a more permanent place in this world and support.

For Movie Tails, I surmise that "home" to him is where Sonic is. He was ostracized (possibly even bullied/picked on) back home for his two tails. After listening to some of his lines in movie 2, Tails read to me like a character who'd been treated as weird or an outcast and ended up isolating himself as a result. I got the impression that when he wasn't indulging in his love of technology/mechanics (or perhaps even at the same time) he was holed up in his base, watching a live stream of Sonic and his adventures, even after the conclusion of the first movie's events. He knows everything about Sonic, down to knowing that he doesn’t take showers, before even meeting him properly. Tails is not at home on earth nor particularly entranced by earth itself (in opposition to Sonic, who became entranced with it). He only even goes there to warn Sonic and to help him out. But Sonic's place—Sonic's home—is on Earth, in Green Hills, with Tom and Maddie, and Tails has formed an actual bond of friendship with the hedgehog he formed a possibly parasocial relationship with used to watch on a screen. Before, I think Tails was just content with watching or being helpful. But now? Now that he's spent time with Sonic, Sonic makes him feel normal. Sonic makes him feel like even "weirdos" can do great things. Sonic makes him feel valued. He's no longer content just watching because Sonic is more his home than the place he grew up in ever was. Home to him is with the people you choose, the people who make you feel at home, the people you want to be around. The Wachowski household is Sonic's home because he loves earth, green hills, and because he has mutually taken Tom and Maddie as his parents. Earth and the Wachowski household are only Tails' home as long as Sonic is there.

And for Knuckles... He has the set up to fall in love with earth in a similar way Sonic did. He grew up/was born in a similar place to him. And yet, all of the beautiful nature on earth doesn't matter to him. Knuckles, as of the beginning of the Knuckles series, had adopted a different approach to Sonic. Sonic tried to make home for himself wherever he could, no matter how many worlds he'd jumped to. In contrast, Knuckles never bothered to do this. He only pursued the mission, never bothering to make a home when he'd be off to the next world soon enough (especially if it seemed trivial in the face of his life's mission). And it's pointed that although he's able to participate in what earth offers the same way Sonic is in movie 1 (Knuckles learning how to bowl or Sonic going to a bar), he is not at home because of those things. He's able to slow down and appreciate what earth offers, the same things he couldn't bring himself to acknowledge before, and yet he's not at home on earth because it's beautiful or because it has food he likes or whatever. He very pointedly makes a connection with Wade and his family. The Whipple family is home. Not the earth, not even the house itself. He feels comfortable when with them, he enjoys the time on earth he spends with them, and he is able to appreciate Earth better when he experiences it with them (in contrast to Tails, who never had any sort of arc of appreciating what one can experience on earth to me). Home to Knuckles isn't easily quantifiable (more of a feeling really), but it’s about the people who make you feel at home. It's about the people who helped him relax and feel more comfortable not always putting his focus into the mission.

Sonic, who can make home anywhere, who always appreciated what was great about living on earth, and whose "home" was finally made permanent when he spent time with Tom and Maddie.

Tails, who never truly felt home until he spent time with Sonic, who doesn't particularly care for what earth has to offer, whose home is wherever Sonic is.

Knuckles, who never allowed himself to feel at home or tried to make a home until he began to travel with Wade and open up to new experiences, who began to enjoy earth and yet considers his home with the Whipple family specifically.

Sonic would protect the earth he lives on even if everyone he cared about was gone. Tails would protect the earth he lives on so long as it's Sonic's home. Knuckles would protect the world he lives on not just to keep the master emerald secured, but so long as this place is home to the Whipple family, with whom he enjoys experiencing Earth with.

Do you... Do you get me?

[radiance1]

Amity Park is an unusual place. Home to the ghost crazed inventors Jack and Maddie Fenton and their two children, Jasmine and Daniel Fenton.

It is a peaceful town, if only when the Fenton's aren't up to their shenanigans, besides that it was a town were nothing to significant happened.

Which is why it was so weird how the town was built right next to a magical leyline.

(His parents are actually weirdly connected now that he thinks of it.)

Now you see, Danny never cared about his parents' obsession with ghosts, nor their apparent 'portal to hell' that's a work in progress.

(Danny is 12 here AGAIN because I'm just built like that)

He did like to invent small versions of the Chaos Emeralds from the sonic comics he asked his parents for. He was honestly completely surprised they managed to get him actual real-life copies of the comics, considering they ceased productions years before he was born.

He isn't even going to ask any questions about the where and how.

So, he read through the books, told his two friends about it and they came over then they read together. Sam was a bit surprised, since even her parents didn't know where to source them from.

So, you give a twelve-year-old access to discontinued comics about a hedgehog who can run faster than the speed of soun and he sees these super powerful gems and has access to highly advanced tech made his parents (mostly ghost centered but eh) and you expect him not to do anything?

So, he, Tucker and Sam came together and sketched out a design for what they wanted this machine to look like to (hopefully) make their own versions of the Chaos Emeralds.

It wouldn't be the real thing, but they just want something close enough that they can look at.

So, they drew the machine, trying to see which parts would be needed in the actual building part of it. To which they kinda grew to a stump at, Tucker is insanely good with computers, Danny is insanely good at building things and Sam has extensive knowledge of the occult and money.

But they weren't good with the actual designing part. The drawing was pretty crude, not as good as his parents' blueprints, but it was good enough. They just couldn't figure out what materials would go where and which they would even need.

Then his parents caught a glance at what they were working on and extended their help, surprising all three of them since this wasn't anything ghost related. With their help the actual parts for the machine came together, and sure the design had to be changed a bit here and there, but it was worth it!

They didn't know where exactly to build said machine though. Until Sam mentioned the nearby forest, and really, it just went on from there.

So there they were, walking through the forest, looking for the perfect spot to build their machine. Finally coming to at a small hill, Danny decided to build the machine here!

It was the perfect spot for a replica of a super powerful, mega awesome giant emerald!

The spot did however feel really weird, like there was something living in the area. Not that Danny minded though, he wouldn't be a Fenton if he didn't ignore something crazy like this!

Sam was honestly just there for the vibe to be honest.

Tucker was persuaded to be here with the newest PDA that came out and practically unlimited data (He was going to be there anyways but who could pass up that.)

So it took a while, having to carry the materials out there (or carrying them in a cart, for the bigger pieces) and then having Danny putting it all together with his friends handing him some pieces here and there, and then Sam and Tucker having to goddamn drag Danny away from the unfinished machine to take a break and play a game.

Most of the time, Sam would distract herself with reading some occult books, while Tucker would surf the internet while Danny built his machine.

After about a week Danny finally managed to bring the machine to life, a giant mold in the middle of it in the shape of the Master Emerald when it came together and 21 smaller molds.

Coincidently, that was also the time his parents finished their 'portal to hell'.

So, Danny closed the machine, pouring the resin for the master emerald into the machine while his friend poured in resin of different colors into the other molds.

White for Danny.

Black for Sam.

Red for Tucker.

And green for the Master Emerald.

After that, well. All that was left was to turn it on, so they did.

At the exact moment the Fenton's turned on their ghost portal.

The magical energies of the leyline flooded into the molds of the gems, it was extremely chaotic and unfocused, its magical energies unable to be controlled.

For there to then be what is basically the perfect vessels for its excess power?

Well, safe to say it took the opportunity as it was.

At the exact same time Ectoplasm flooded into the world from the portal, and the door to the other side was opened.

The world, tilted off the combined events of the portal opening and the leyline finding a vessel for its power.

Shifted.

Then it and another world became one, a relatively smooth transition as barely anyone noticed.

Barely.

But that isn't what we're going to focus on right now. ;)

The entirety of Amity Park experienced city-wide electronic mayhem. Basic household appliances started going wack, as did their phones or anything electronic. Then the power went out as an earthquake ran through the city.

It stopped as suddenly as it began, everything was normal. So the Amity parkers went on about their day as normal too.

Danny, Sam and Tucker were knocked unconscious by the event, to which they then awoke about an hour later and saw the sight of their machine broken beyond repair. Danny ran forward and cried over the loss of his hard work, then Sam and Tucker got him to look up a bit higher to see it.

The Master Emerald in all of its beautiful, rainbow glory, and floating around was 21 gems made alongside it.

At first, Danny was stunned, unable to figure out how the hell the gem replicas are floating when they were made to be just that, replicas and not anything else.

They then floated down to each of them, the reds circling Tucker, the blacks circling Sam and the whites circling Danny.

And Danny, being 12 years old forgot all about that and went fuck it.

They stayed there for a while, playing with their new gems. They tried to be responsible, they swear! But they just couldn't help but test what they could do...

They found out that, while they aren't as powerful as the originals in the comics. They were still pretty damn strong, so then Sam had the great idea to train themselves in the usage of the gems like responsible people would.

(Which is basically just an excuse to run over to her books and try out each and every spell she could see.)

Which is how they also found out that the Master Emerald replica also had the ability to render their own gems inert like in the comics after they went a bit overboard with them.

Then they came back home and apparently ghosts are a thing now. They politely kept their new gems and the existence of the giant one a secret.

And like that, two years passed by. All of them now 14 and having very good control over the gems, with the help of the Master Emerald that somehow became semi-sentient and finding out that the reason why it happened is because they literally built the machine on top of a magical leyline.

They took on the role of guarding the gem, just like Knuckles the Echidna. Which also doubles as their hangout spot too, so there's that.

They had super-secret personas and totally cool outfits for when they're guarding it too. Which isn't really necessary since nothing happens, but they don't really care about that too be honest.

Amity Park is a relatively closed off town, new faces only being there in the ways of tourists. It is a peaceful town, minus all the ghosts and the Fenton's in their battles, it is a nice town where nothing too big happens.

Danny, Sam, and Tucker thought so as well. Thought that nobody would find out about their little secret.

They were not pleased when they found some old British guy was walking around the Master Emerald.

The Fenton parents were very pleased when three of earth's greatest heroes, batguy, supersomething and Wondergirl pulled up at their doorstep asking to see their inventions. (They swear they could never quite remember those three's names, what with all the ghost fighting, realizing they weren't quite right in their research and renouncing everything they ever said about ghosts as a whole while also trying to reconnect with their kids after realizing how neglectful they've been over the years.)

~ Some Father-son bonding ~

(A/N: I LOVE THIS ITERATION OF SONIC SM- ESPECIALLY HOW THE WRITERS WROTE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEM HIM AND TOM FOR THE FIRST AND SECOND FILM. I- SOBSSSS. I LOVE THESE TWO SM SO U KNOW I NEEDED TO MAKE A FIC ABT THEM 💞💕💖💗😭!!!)

Lee: Sonic🦔💙

Ler: Tom🍩🤎

Warnings: A little bit of angst in the beginning, harmful stimming (I’ll tag where it starts and ends) and tickling. If you are uncomfortable with any of the following please feel free to keep scrolling down :)

Summary: It’s been a couple months since the epic battle between Sonic and Eggman. The electric blue hedgehog could finally relax…right? Well…yes and no. Sonic has been living with the Wachowski’s for those couple months and it’s been great! But…he keeps feeling weird. His stomach gets fluttery and he can’t stop laughing for hours at a time…it's…really weird. Maybe he should talk to someone about this…

(A/N: Parent and child relationship. Nothing more. Nothing less. It sickens me that I have to put that in there (bc it should be obvious) but you can never be too sure…I just needed to make it clear that they love each other as family.)

——————————————————————————————————

Sonic was sitting up on his beanbag and playing with the rubix cube Maddie gave him about a week ago. He was dressed in a sweatshirt, a gift from Tom that was like 3 times his own size, going almost to his knees and blue fuzzy socks. He groaned as he finished solving the cube again for probably the 12th time now. Speaking of which, you’re probably wondering where he got the rubix cube from…and before you ask, no he did not steal it. It was quite the opposite actually.

Maddie noticed that Sonic was very fidgety at times and often pulled at his quills when he was nervous about something, or completely bored. So she decided to go shopping and buy the blue hedgehog some fidget toys. And by “some”, Sonic means like about 60-70 at least…he hasn’t counted but by the looks on how freaking heavy the box was when she gifted it to him, his estimation probably wasn’t that far off. 

Sonic groaned again, dropping the rubix cube he had in his hands and placed it on his desk, making sure to put it down delicately so he didn’t accidentally dent it; out of all of the fidget toys this one was Sonic’s favorite and he didn’t want it getting ruined under any circumstances. The hedgehog flopped on his beanbag, looking up at the ceiling and putting his pillow to his face before abruptly groaning loudly for like the 100th time, but at least now it was muffled by the pillow. 

Sonic wanted something but he didn’t know what…and this feeling was starting to get on his nerves.

Well- no- scratch that. He did- he did know what he wanted. But there’s no way in all of Green Hills he was gonna tell anyone about it.

There- there was this feeling in his stomach, but he didn’t know what the literal hell it was, and it’s been eating him from the inside since he’s come to Green Hills. His stomach felt fluttery, almost as if there were butterflies instead of intestines- but not in a bad way! In a very weird, confusing, nice way? If that makes sense? And another thing, he can't seem to stop giggling to himself. Which is odd. Because he didn’t even hear a joke or anything! He was just…giggling. Like what? But most importantly, he was craving physical affection apparently??? Ugh. See why he wasn’t gonna tell anyone about this feeling? Or…whatever this was?

Sonic looked at his phone- not far from where he was lying down on his beanbag. He remembers Maddie saying every time she left before work in the morning that if he needed anything, to text or call her…

This is probably what she meant. 

But he didn’t want to bother her. Sonic knew how important Maddie’s job was and he didn’t want to make it more stressful. Besides, what was she supposed to say to her coe-working people if Sonic called or texted? Oh! Sorry! The over-sized hedgehog I have living in my house wants to talk about this weird feeling he’s feeling! Hm? Oh, what feeling you ask? He doesn’t quite know exactly! 

Yeah. Thanks but no thanks. Sonic could handle this weird feeling on his own. Yep. He could totally handle this weird new feeling by himself. Uh-huh. He’s got this.

…

Maddie…Maddie wouldn’t mind…right?

…

Oh fuck it.

Sonic grabbed his phone and unlocked it, immediately going through his contacts to find Maddie- which wasn't hard. He only had two contacts: her and Tom.

✨💖The Magnificent Marvelous Maddie💖✨

Today at 1:38 p.m. 

Hey Maddie

If uh

If you’re not busy…can I ask you a question?

Sonic turned his phone off and put it next to him and after a couple seconds of waiting the blue hedgehog immediately regretted sending those three texts to Maddie. She’s probably busy anyway. Sonic could figure out this feeling by himself-

PING!

Sonic almost jumped out of his seat at the sudden loud sound coming from his phone. He really needs to figure out how to turn that sound down…he can feel it still ringing in his ears. He turned on his phone to see a text notification- 3 actually- from the one and only Maddie Wachowski…

Well that was fast. 

Hi, sweetie! 

And of course you can ask me a question ☺️!

What’s on your mind, honey? 

Sonic exhaled the breath he didn’t even notice he was holding in, unlocking his phone and going into messages to properly text her.

I’ve been…

I’ve been feeling weird lately- and idk why 

Ever since I’ve come to Green Hills to stay w/ u guys I’ve felt this way…and idk what it is and it’s been pissing me off lately.

So I was hoping…maybe you could help me figure out what it is?

Of course!

Could you maybe try to describe it? 

The thing is idk how to! 

I just- my stomach feels all fluttery 

Not in a bad way tho! Not like a roller-coaster fluttery or about-to-go-on-stage-and-sing-in-front-of-millions-upon-millions-of-people fluttery 

But like- a good fluttery I guess??? I just feel rlly giggly and stuff and it’s weird- but weird in a good way…

…

That doesn’t make any sense, does it?

No no! I think I understand, sweetie

And I think I can help 😊

WAIT- HUH???

YOU CAN???

Well, not me exactly

As of I’m not home right now 

But I’m sure Tom can help!

Wait what-?

How can Tom help w/ this I’m so confused 😭😭😭

Trust me 

In the past, I’ve had the feeling you’re feeling right now and Tom is the best person to help with it- so just tell him what you told me!

Uh…alright!

I guess I could do that 

Thanks Maddie 

It’s no problem, Sonic sweetie 😊

Okay, thanks again- I’m gonna go talk to him now

Bye!

Okay bye! Love you 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️☺️☺️☺️

Love you too 😗❤️

Sonic got up from his beanbag chair, put his phone inside of the desk and opened the hatch downstairs. Sonic quietly tiptoed down the stairs, making sure to dodge the places in the steps that he knew squeaked if he stepped too hard, peeking over the stairway to see Tom watching TV- and from the looks of it it looked like some sheriff documentary- he’s been watching those a lot lately…but Sonic doesn’t understand the hype. The sheriff’s on the TV could be talking about some random paint splatter on the ground and Tom would be hooked. 

“I can hear you trying to be quiet up there, Sonic.” Tom chuckled, still facing the TV as he went to grab the remote on the armrest and pause the TV. The brunette turned to Sonic with a “hah! Caught ya” grin, a grin Sonic knew all too well in his last months of living with him.

 The hedgehog sighed in defeat of being caught, walking down the stairs and going next to the couch Tom was sitting at. The brunette had a grey/gray shirt on with a light plaid print jacket, matching with some black pants and white socks. 

“Uh…’sup, Tom.” Sonic said as casually as he could before leaning on the couches’ arm rest. The brunette eyed Sonic suspiciously, raising one eyebrow as he crossed his arms. Sonic started to sweat under the older man’s glare, whistling and looking anywhere but Tom’s direction. 

“What did you do, Sonic?” Tom sighed, taking the blue hedgehogs’ sudden nervousness as a sign of him doing something he wasn’t supposed to. “I didn't do anything!” Sonic said, mimicking Tom’s expression and pose. The two looked at each other in the pose for a solid minute or two before laughing at their silliness.

“So what do you need, little man?” Tom asked. Sonic cleared his throat, fiddling with his hands and began looking at his feet because honestly? Staring at the ground was much much more easier than looking at Tom at the moment. “I just…I figured we could- y’know- hang out I guess?” The blue hedgehog started, “Some uhm…y’know some father-son bonding activities…?” Sonic said sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck, still looking down on the ground. 

There was an uncomfortable silence between the two and Sonic didn't like it. He didn't like it one bit. And the more the silence dragged on the more the blue hedgehog started to second guess himself about coming down to the living room. 

Pfft, “Father-son bonding?” He really has reached a whole new level of patheticness, huh? Why would Tom want to spend time with him? He’s just keeping him around because he pity’s him. He doesn’t actually enjoy his company. Just wait until Tom gets tired of him, then he’ll be all alone again-

Oh this was a mistake.

This was such SUCH a mistake. 

***Harmful stimming starts***

The hedgehog started lightly pulling on his quills out of nervousness with one hand while his other hand started tapping the side of his leg, “O-Or whatever. If- If you want to of course. I don’t want it to seem like you're being forced, hah!” Sonic said, letting out the best fake laugh he could muster before speaking again. “I-If you’re busy- y’know….with, uhh, you’re sheriff stuff…that’s fine as well. I don’t- I don’t care.” Sonic started slowly backing away from Tom, still pulling on his quills- but a tad bit harder this time as his hand tapping on his leg started increasing faster. 

Sonic could hear faint talking in front of him but he couldn’t focus on it. The only thing he needed to focus on was leaving before he embarrassed himself more. “Y’know what? I-I should go, you’re probably doing something busy anyway, uh…lemme get out of your hair, man.” Sonic grimaced, turning away and going to the steps, but before he could walk any farther Tom grabbed both his hands gently. 

***Harmful stimming stops***

“Hey…let’s not do that, okay? You’re hurting yourself….” Tom said softly, holding Sonic’s hands in his own as he kneeled down to try and match Sonic’s height. “Where are your fidget toys?” Tom gently asked, trying his best to keep the questions short and sweet to not overwhelm the younger. These types of moments have happened before in the Wachowski’s house; when Sonic started to panic, asking him too many questions would get him even more upset, so when this happened they kept the questions to a minimum and straight to the point. “I…I left them upstairs…” Sonic mumbled. 

“Oh. That’s okay…uh…here. Sit down on the couch for a sec.” The brunette said as he picked up Sonic and sat him on the couch. Rubbing his head affectionately before walking away to the kitchen rummaging through the kitchen shelves before coming out with a blue squishy ball. He came back to Sonic who gratefully accepted the ball. Tom sat next to Sonic as the younger leaned onto his shoulder, taking another deep breath and exhaling, muscles once tense now relaxed. 

“Sorry about that…” Sonic said, squeezing the stress ball harder and glaring at it as if it stole his last chili dogs. Well this wasn’t how he was planning this conversation with Tom to go. The older looked at Sonic sadly before sighing and turning his gaze looking straight ahead to the paused TV. “You don’t have anything to apologize for, kid. It’s alright.” Tom said. The blue hedgehog hummed at the comic, taking a couple more deep breathers.

There was that uncomfortable silence again, the one that Sonic despised. “I just…I dunno. I feel weird…?” Sonic said, squeezing his squishy fidget ball at a faster pace this time. The older didn't say anything but completely turned to Sonic, letting him know he was listening. The younger somewhat shrunk under the older mans’ look, feeling a tad bit pressure to go on but decided to ignore it. He wanted- no. He needed to get this off of his chest. 

“Ever since I’ve come to stay with you and Maddie after the defeat of Dr. Robotnik, I’ve felt…odd. I feel tingly, and fluttery and it’s just…weird, because I’ve never felt like this before, ever. I talked to Maddie about it in text and she said to talk to you about it…so uh…here I am!” Sonic sheepishly said.

Tom chuckled, “Is that why you said you wanted some Father-son bonding?” The blue hedgehog blushes at the mention, nodding his head. The older one chuckled once again, rubbing Sonic’s head affectionately, “I’d be happy to help you with this fluttery-feeling, buddy!” The blue hedgehog quickly looked at Tom as his ears went up in surprise.  

“Wait. Really?” Sonic asked. “Of course! But before I do, I gotta ask you a question…” Tom said waiting a dramatically long time before continuing his sentence. “Are you ticklish?” The older asked, smirking and raising an eyebrow up. There was a silence between the two, but only this time this one was in complete and utter confusion. The younger ones' eyebrows creased together trying to put together what he was just asked, “Um…gesundheit?” 

“What? No, kid.Tickling. Y'know, being ticklish?” Tom said as he wiggled his fingers near Sonic’s face only to be met by a confused look. “I dunno what you are talking about, man…” Sonic chuckled, now relaxing in the hug as he chuckled at the older mans’ surprised face.

Tom’s dumbfounded expression slowly turned to a soft, genuine smile, then it slowly turned into an evil grin. This kid had no idea what tickling is!

…

This kid had no idea what tickling is…

Oh Tom is gonna change that very quickly.

“Uh…Tom? You okay over there? Your face kinda looks like that green person we watched on Christmas…” Sonic said, wincing at the memory of the man’s genuine expression slowly slowly turning into an evil one. Tom stopped with his evil grin (for now at least), and raised his left eyebrow in amusement. “You mean The Grinch?” He asked, laughing when the blue hedgehog nodded happily at the familiar name. “Yeah, yeah! That dude!” Sonic smiled.  

“I need you to stay perfectly still for this to work though, okay?” Tom said in the best serious voice he could muster, but probably not as serious as he thought since right after he stopped talking Sonic started laughing a bit. “Pfft, whatever you say, Donut Lord.” Sonic snickered, hopping into Tom’s lap facing sideways.

Tom then began to lightly scratch along Sonic’s sides, the reaction was almost immediate as the blue hedgehog began to squirm lightly and grab at the brunette’s wrists; but not pushing them away. Sonic held his breath; trying not to laugh but that plan started to crumble as Tom began to poke at the youngers’ sides; more quickly than he was before. Sonic let out a tiny shriek before descending into little giggles, kicking his legs and shaking his head. Tom smiled at the adorable sight.

“Whahat? Hehey-! Hehey wahahait! Whahat ahahare yohou dohoing?” Sonic asked while becoming a giggly squirmy mess. Tom chuckled at the youngers’ question, making sure to go easy on him since this was his first time being tickled, so he’d start off with light tickles…for now at least. 

“I’m tickling you, silly! Since it does seem to me that you happen to be a bit ticklish~!” Tom cooed, now using two hands to tase around Sonic’s sides. Sonic threw his head back, suddenly lost in a puddle of giggles and fell on the couch, but still in Tom’s grasp as the brunette tickled up and down his sides. “Whahat ahare you tahahalking about?” Sonic giggly asked, his legs lightly stomped on the couch as some pillows fell in the process. 

“Hmm, hold on…” Tom said as he grabbed his phone from his jacket pocket, typing up something but making sure to keep the blue hedgehog in a giggly squirmy mess. “Ah, okay. Goggle states this: Tickling is the act of touching a part of a body in a way that causes involuntary-“ “Ihihi dohohon’t knohow whahat thahat meeheeans!” Sonic whined interrupting Tom, shaking his head back and forth giggling up a storm in the older mans’ lap. “You didnt even let me finish!” Tom laughed, moving one hand to tickle Sonic’s neck while the other still tickled his side. 

“PFFT- nAhAHAH! GeHEt ohOUT ohohOHOF theHEhehere!” Sonic giggly demanded, still holding Tom’s wrist as he scrunched up his shoulders. The older man chuckled before digging both of his hands in both sides of the blue hedgehog’s neck, fingers fluttering up, down, left, and right. Sonic’s feet drummed on the couch, trying to make a daring escape but anytime he was even a bit close to leaving, Tom would poke Sonic’s sides, leaving the blue hedgehog to be an adorable giggly mess. “Stahay still!” Tom playfully scolded. 

“THIhihIHIs ihihis soHO weeheeird!” The hedgehog giggled, his face beginning to turn a light red. And honestly, if Tom could start crying, he would- out of happiness of course. This was to fucking darn cute. 

“How many ribs do you think you have, Sonic?” Tom asked as he held both of Sonic’s arms up against the couch, trying his best to compose himself from not crying from the younger ones’ adorable reactions to the pokes. “Mahaddie sahahaid weehee hahave twehenty-fohour; twehehelve ohon eeheeach sihihide!” Sonic giggly answered, as he remembered Maddie did a walk-through on the human body and how many bones it has. 

“Hm…you sure? Maybe I should count them for you…” Tom didn’t even spare the giggly blue hedgehog a second to protest as he pressed his thumb into the lowest rib on the right side of Sonic’s ribcage, kneading and circling at a very very slow pace against the artificial bone. Sonic screeched at the sudden sensation against his ribs, kicking his legs a bit faster as Tom slowly slowly slowly began to “count his ribs”.

“One…two…three…” Tom counted aloud, remaining on a rib for about 5 seconds before moving up to a different one. Sonic lurched in Tom’s lap, attempting to pry himself out by pushing at Tom’s wrists but only caused the older to pin up his arms and continue kneading at his ribs. “NahAHA! WahahHAHAIT, plehHEHEase!” Sonic whined throughout his frantic cries of laughter. “Ihi sahAHAId iHi hahaHAVE tweHEHEnty foHOUR!” 

“I'm just double checking!” Tom innocently said as if he wasn’t completely wrecking the boy in his lap at the moment. The blue hedgehog squirmed and squealed at the tickly feeling at his ribs, being unable to do anything but just take it. This went on for a couple more numbers but then Tom suddenly stopped “counting” Sonic’s ribs, giving the kid another breather before hatching another evil plan. “Wait, what number was I on, Sonic?” 

“Tohohom! Yohou lihihiterally ohonly counted toohoo sihihix-!” 

“Oh, well. I lost count! Guess I have to start all over again~! 

Sonic froze in place, laughter now raising an octave as he helplessly squirmed in Tom’s grasp. “WahAHaH- waHahaHAIT *snort* nOHo dahHa- *snort* dohOHOHOn’t!” Sonic snorted, descending into a puddle of maddening cackles feeling the fluttery feeling again. So this was the feeling he was feeling…? He’d have to ask Tom later, when he’s not getting tickled to pieces. 

“Awh~! That’s so cute~! You snort when you laugh?” Tom cooed, wiggling his fingers near the blue hedgehog's ribs but very very close to touching him. Sonic’s laughter became more frantic and loud, squirming underneath Tom, and it's not like he could defend himself either! His arms were pinned up! This entire situation just screamed “unfair”. “NahaHAO! IHI *snort* doHOHon’t!” Sonic giggly said, knowing that- yes. Yes he did snort when he laughed, he did just a couple seconds ago…but no way in all of Green Hills he was gonna admit it, especially in this situation. 

“Oho really? What was that adorable noise you made just then, hmm?” Tom smugly asked. “YohOu’re heehEEARihing thihIHIngs…” Tom fondly rolled his eyes as he pinched and kneaded Sonic’s ribs, leaving absolutely no bone left out from his tickle torture. Sonic threw his head back and cackled like a madman, snorting every now and again as he squirmed like a worm, trying to stop the ticklish sensation at his ribs. 

“NAHAHAO! DAHAHAD *snort* PLEHEASE!” Sonic cried. Tom’s eyes widened at the name title the younger gave, not sure if the blue hedgehog meant to say it, but was very honored and happy at the mention. It made his heart melt. “Please what, Sonic? Pleaseeeeee keep tickling you?” Tom smugly teased, grin widening as he saw Sonic’s face heat up in embarrassment. Guess he’s weak to the T-word, huh? Oho I can and will use that to my advantage… 

“DAHAHA- *snort* OHOHO MY GOHOD! STAHAHAP SAHAHAYING THAHAT!” Sonic yelled as he shook his head back and forth. “Stop saying what, exactly? Tickle~? Ticklish~? Tickled~? Or do you want me to simply stop talking? Which one?” Tom laughed. “YEHEHES!” Sonic cried, not even completely knowing what he just said ‘yes’ to- he was too lost in his own laughter. Tom stopped tickling Sonic, letting him have one last breather before the final kill.   

“Ever heard of raspberries, Sonic?” Tom asked, knowing that he the blu hedgehog has, but probably not the ones he’s talking about. “Lihihike thehe fruhuhuit?” Sonic giggly asked. “Nope! Here, lemme show you…” Tom said as he blew a raspberry on the youngers’ tummy causing him to absolutely howl in laughter. 

“OHO MY *snort* GAAAHAHAD WAHAHAIT! WAHAHAIT!” Sonic screamed, completely not prepared for this new tickly feeling on his stomach…and why did it sound so freaking funny??? That was just gonna make him laugh more! “Wait for what Sonic~?” Tom teased as he blew more raspberries on his tummy, and with his free and scribbling up and down Sonic’s ribs. 

“WAHAHAIT- *snort* IHI *snort* DOHON’T DOOHOO THAHAHAT!” Sonic cried, blue sparks suddenly forming on the kids’ quills, sparkling here and there but some going off of his quills and onto the carpet floor, disappearing. Sonic cackled in the older Tom’s lap, the blue lightning on his quills adding a new ticklish sensation on him.

“Huh. Well they do say you learn new things everyday…” Tom mumbled, watching some of the lighting sparks fall off of the younger ones quills. “PLEHEHEASE! IHIT’S *snort* TIHIHICKLISH!” Sonic screamed, more tiny little blue sparks flying off of his quills and onto the floor. Tom chuckled at the little blue hedgehogs’ reactions, moving down to Sonic’s lower belly as he began to lightly flutter his fingers around it. 

“I think you mean ‘it tickles’, bud.” Tom said into Sonic’s tummy, chuckling. Tom was the sheriff of Green Hills- not the sheriff of grammar; at least last time Sonic checked. Tom began to blow more raspberries all over the little blue hedgehog’s stomach, making sure to add a few nibbles now and again to keep the younger in stitches- which worked out really well on Tom’s part. Sonic’s laughter became more high pitched and loud, snorting more frequently as the older started to raspberry and nibble his stomach.

“OHOHO MY GOHOD *snort* WHATEVER!” Sonic screamed as Tom began to switch between his lips and teeth nibbling mercilessly at Sonic’s tummy leaving the poor blue hedgehog in absolute hysterics. 

Tom dug his fingers in the blue hedgehogs underarms.And Sonic screamed. The hedgehog's feet were kicking probably about a million miles per hour, just looking like a complete and utter blur while the blue sparks on Sonic’s quills multiplied. 

“So~! I think I found your most ticklish spot, huh~?” Tom chuckled, lightly scratching his fingers in Sonic’s underarms, making sure to dodge the little sparks of blue lightning coming off of Sonic’s quills- which  he knew tickled the younger even more due to how much he was laughing. Sonic screamed underneath the brunette’s grasp, trying his best to not kick him in the face but the task being very very hard as his feet were kicking around a million miles per hour. 

“NOHOHO- *snort* DAHAHAH! DOHOHON’T!” Sonic howled, shaking his head back and forth while the heels of his feet dug into the couch. Tom, chuckled, now scribbling and scratching in Sonic’s underarms, “I’m barely even touching you!” Tom laughed, almost as hard as Sonic as he began to pick up the pace with his scribbling. 

“STAHAHA! *snort* NAHAHA- *snort* PLEHEHEA- *snort* DAHAHAHAD!” Sonic screamed, as happy tears started forming in his eyes which Tom took as a sign that Sonic has enough tickles for today. “Alright, alright! Just say Uncle.” Tom calmly said as if Sonic wasn’t screaming his head off. “WHAHA- *snort* WHAHAT?!

“Juhust say Uncle, kiddo-“ Tom said as he accidentally hit a very ticklish spot in Sonic’s underarm causing the younger to let out a girl-like squeal. 

“OKAHAHAY! OKAHAHAY! UHUHUNCLE!” 

Tom stopped tickling Sonic; letting the kid have a breather and putting him into a tight embrace. The blue hedgehog giggled softly in the hug as he melted into the touch. “You okay?” Tom chuckled, smirking at the younger who was still giggling from the tickles from before. Sonic nodded, wiping away his happy tears with his hand still giggling a bit. “So~, I’m Dad now, huh? What happened to being ‘too cool for your human parental names’?” Sonic blushed, pulling up his hoodie and sinking deeper into Tom’s chest. “Shuhut ihit….” 

“I really don’t mind you calling me Dad, bud.” Tom smiled. “Wahait whahat…? Reheally?” Sonic asked in genuine confusion looking up at the older with shiny eyes- Tom swore Sonic’s pupils had stars in them at that moment. “Yeah, I don’t mind.” Tom confirmed, patting Sonic’s back. Sonic’s eyes glistened a bit but the younger one soon wiped them. “Cool…” 

“So…that's called tickling?” The blue hedgehog asked. 

“Mhm.”

“So…you tickled me?”

“Yep.” 

“Huh.” Sonic said, not being able to say anything more than that. “How’s that fluttery feeling in your stomach doing?” Tom asked. “Fine, it's doing just fine.” Sonic smiled as Tom smiled back, rubbing his head affectionately and chuckling. 

“Let's go grab you some water, kiddo. And how about we make some cupcakes after that-“ Tom wasn’t even able to finish his sentence as the blue hedgehog excitedly ran to the kitchen chugging a glass of water and putting out ingredients to make the cupcakes. Tom chuckled, walking over to Sonic to join him. 

Tom definitely had to make a note to tell Maddie about his later, but as of right now he was going to bake some cupcakes with his son. And if they burn down the house in the process, oh well…they both can try coming up with a good excuse to tell Maddie as to why the house is in ashes.

[cc-cobalt-1043]

You're wanted *a Tails Wachowski One shot*

Tails has been hiding his whole life, but what if after thinking for so long he'd never find anyone who'd love him...he did

A few days after the fiasco with Robotnik Tom, Maddie, Knuckles, and Tails were sitting at the Wachowski family table.

Tom and Maddie were discussing something in hushed voices.

Tails had a horrible hunch on what they were talking about, but he hoped he was wrong.

His hunch was confirmed when Tom looked at Knuckles and Tails and asked the dreaded question.

"So, what do you guys plan on doing now?"

Tails and Knuckles looked at Tom confused.

"Well surely you guys have homes, and your parents must be worried sick, right?" Tom asked.

"Sadly no I'm afraid not, all my tribe have been dead for a long time, and I no longer have a home to return to." Knuckles said.

"I'm so sorry hon, but you're welcome to stay." Maddie said.

"Thank you miss Maddie, I appreciate it." Knuckles asked.

"What about you little guy?" Tom asked turning to Tails.

Tails was about to reply when he suddenly froze.

"They don't want you here." A faint but horrifyingly familiar voice hissed at him.

But surely they did...right.

"You're no good to them...all you are is a burden." The voice hissed.

Tails shook his head and covered his ears trying to drown out the voice.

Surely the Wachowski's wanted him, surely they loved him...didn't they.

"You're. A. FREAK." The voice hissed, yelling the last word with such venom.

Tails shrunk in slightly on himself but jumped when he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.

He looked and saw it was Sonic, with a very concerned frown on his face.

"Tails...you okay pal?" Sonic asked looking worried.

"Yeah, just zoned out for a moment...you know what I'm like." Tails lied.

Sonic nodded, but he wasn't convinced at all.

Tails turned back to Tom.

"Oh yeah, my old village probably are missing me, they just...love me there." Tails lied again.

Tom looked at Maddie who looked just as confused as him, clearly something was wrong, but they couldn't just force him to tell them.

"Well okay, if you're sure. But if you need us we're just a ring toss away." Tom said.

Tails nodded, pushing back the tears that were threatening to fill his eyes.

A couple of days later Tails was getting ready to leave, the others were saying their hopefully short lived farewells to the fox.

"You get everything hon?" Maddie asked.

"Yeah, I think I've got everything." Tails said adjusting his backpack straps.

"It's gonna be odd not having you around pal, you've already fit in so well with us." Tom said.

Tails was going to say something when he heard the voice again.

"They're lying." It growled into his ear.

"Thank you...Mr Wachowski." Tails nodded.

They all gave Tails a hug before the fox pulled out a ring and threw it down.

"Well...goodbye." Tails said giving them a small, sad wave before disappearing through the ring.

The ring closed behind him seconds later.

Sonic frowned as Tails went through the ring, he had a nagging feeling something was wrong.

"I don't know about you guys, but I don't like this." Sonic said still staring at the spot where Tails had vanished.

The others nodded, they all had a feeling Tails wasn't telling them something.

Meanwhile:

A ring opened in the middle of the forest and an all too familiar fox jumped out from it.

Tails looked around and saw a small cave in front of him, Sonic's old cave he guessed, only a lot more barren because Sonic's stuff was in his room at the Wachowski house.

Tails felt his heart clench when he thought of them.

Surely they'd liked him, did he do something wrong?

"They don't want you, nobody wants you, TWO. TAILED. FREAK." The voice roared, Tails could feel his eyes watering.

Tails curled up into a ball on the floor and wept.

Over the next few weeks Tails showed up very little, which was to be expected but Maddie and Tom couldn't help but notice some changes in the fox.

He seemed much quieter than normal and Tom and Maddie could both swear he'd gotten thinner.

Tails said he'd gone back to his parents, but clearly they weren't doing their jobs.

Plus he seemed awfully young, even younger than they'd first thought.

They decided to talk to him about it the next time they saw him.

Thankfully they didn't have to wait long as Tails showed up a few days later.

He'd just finished eating when Tom and Maddie sat next to him.

"Tails, honey can we talk for a minute?" Maddie asked.

Tails just nodded and looked at her.

"How old are you, if I may ask, you seem awfully young." Maddie said.

Tails frowned and was silent for a moment before speaking.

"Eight." He said looking at her dead in the eye.

Tom and Maddie were shocked, this kid was EIGHT and apparently hopping between planets by himself.

Sure some kids were allowed to travel small distances by themselves, but THIS was something else, Tails was far too young to literally travelling to different planets by himself.

Tails saw the looks on their faces and frowned, did he say something wrong.

"Is everything ok, did I do some wrong?" Tails asked.

"No no, of course not honey, you're just a bit young to be hopping planets by yourself." Maddie said stroking the Fox's bangs not noticing the way he seemed to tense at the contact.

"Maybe we should meet your parents Tails." Tom suggested, maybe Tails would be happy to introduce his family to them.

However this had the exact opposite effect they were expecting.

Tails mumbled about a million things at once and with speed that would make Sonic jealous he bolted out the first window and within moments was gone.

And he didn't come back.

It wasn't for another month Tails would be found.

That night Wade was driving into town when he suddenly saw something on the road in front of him.

Cursing and slamming on the breaks as hard as he could Wade prayed he didn't hit whatever it was.

Thankfully the car stopped just in the nick of time.

Wade hurriedly got out the car to investigate and to his utter shock his car lights illuminated...Tails.

Wade was no parent and he certainly wasn't very experienced with kids but he could tell Tails had been having a rough time of it.

His fur was dirty and seemed longer than the last time he saw the kid.

He could also see what looked like food scattered everywhere...but why would Tails need to steal food.

Nevermind that now, he needed to help this kid.

Wade slowly approached Tails, noting how the kid looked absolutely terrified.

"Hey Tails, it's me Wade, you remember me right?" Wade asked.

Tails nodded cautiously.

"That's good, I need you to come to the station with me, I'll call Tom." Wade said.

Tails frowned, he really wanted to see the others, but he didn't want to bother them either.

"Please kid, we've been looking for you for ages, they really want to see you." Wade said.

Tails sighed and nodded, he just couldn't keep this up anymore.

Once they got to the station Wade cleaned Tails up the best he could and made him a cup of hot chocolate, sticking some cream and marshmallows in there as well.

While Tails gratefully sipped his drink Wade called Tom and told him about Tails.

Not even ten minutes later Tom, Maddie, Knuckles and Sonic practically barreled into the police station.

"Tails, you're OK!" Sonic exclaimed joyfully running up to Tails and enveloping him in a hug.

To everyone's surprise Tails suddenly burst into tears.

"Tails?" Sonic asked confused.

"Hey, hey what's wrong baby?" Maddie asked worriedly kneeling down to Tails' height and looking at him worriedly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry I didn't go back." Tails sobbed clinging onto Sonic's fur, his entire body shaking as he sobbed with what seems like weeks and weeks of pent up sadness suddenly exploding.

"I should have just left and not let you all worry about me, this time I promise I'll go." Tails said still hobbling heavily into Sonic.

"Woah Woah, we aren't mad honey more concerned, but if you haven't been at home, where have you been?" Maddie asked.

"I'm the forest, I-In Sonic's old cave." Tails said trying to stop the tears now flowing down his face.

"But what about your parents, don't they miss you?" Tom asked confused.

Tails sniffled and looked at Tom with glassy eyes.

"They don't care about me, they left me years ago." Tails said.

You could have heard a pin drop in the silence that enveloped the room, even Wade was speechless.

Sonic broke the silence.

"They-They left you." Sonic said gaping at Tails' slack jawed.

Tails just nodded.

"I don't know why, I don't even know if I did something wrong, but they just left me, in the middle of a field, I had to look after myself." Tails said.

"But didn't they...care for you?" Knuckles asked.

Tails laughed, but not his usual chirpy laugh, this was a cold, bitter laugh that sent chills down Knuckles's spine.

"Love me, they were as bad as the rest of my village, maybe worse, they didn't hug or kiss me, they didn't comfort me when I had nightmares or was scared of the storms, they'd even break my inventions because they believed they were "unnatural" and "freakish", they straight up told me I was nothing but a burden to them and a curse on our entire town, when my mother left me her last words to me were literally "Farewell Miles, you have been nothing but a burden to us since the moment you born, you're unnatural and scary and are a curse upon us and our village, now go, I never want to see you again. YOU. TWO. TAILED. FREAK"." Tails yelled his body shaking violently as a whole new round of sobbing commenced immediately after his rant.

Sonic stared at Tails with glassy eyes, he'd been fighting hard not to cry seeing Tails...no, his little brother break down like this, but that last part was the nail in the coffin, and sure enough Sonic found himself crying too.

"Oh Tails, that's so awful, I'm so sorry." Sonic choked out before pulling Tails into another almighty hug, the two just simply crying into each other's fur.

"I'm sorry Tails, I'm so sorry you had to go through that, I wish I could have stopped it from happening to you." Sonic said clinging onto Tails for dear life.

"It doesn't matter, I guess they were right about me after all, no one wants me, I'm nothing but a little two tailed freak." Tails choked out.

Maddie cut Tails off before he could say anything else, looking him directly in the eyes.

"Miles prower, I never want to hear you say that again! You are one of the most precious things I have ever met, you are not a freak, you never were, and I swear to you if I ever find the people who've treated you this way, I will put them through hell and back." Maddie vowed.

Tails just nodded and Maddie hugged both him and Sonic, Tom and Knuckles joining in the hug.

Tails couldn't believe how loving and caring the Wachowski's had been to him and for the first time in years Tails finally believed there was someone out there who would love him.

And it was the Wachowski family.

Under the Moonlight - Part 3 - Arguing With Myself (Sort Of)

Read Part 2 if you haven't already - Midnight Hour

TW: Physical fighting

Quick note: This story takes place before the sequel. Any Sonic Movie story I write like this one will be a pre-sequel story.

Appalled by his appearance, he tries to hide in town from Tom and Maddie, but encounters some trouble along the way that brings out the wild side of his new form.

-

The peaceful quiet in the streets of Sonic's neighborhood would last for long if it weren't for two things; a shrieking stray cat and a hyperactive dark blue beast chasing it down on all fours.

"Where are you going? Come back, kitty!" The raspy voice cried out, almost running out of breath, trying to catch up to the fuzzy tabby stray.

Why is the cat running away? He didn't do anything wrong. He just wants to play with the little kitty.

He kept running, playfully pleading the cat to stay, but it was no use. "I didn't mean to scare ya, I just wanna- *GASP*"

Suddenly, coming back to his senses, the hedgehog-wolf like creature screeched to a halt and nearly tumbled onto the ground, landing on his face. "...Ow." A voice muffled on the concrete.

The stray turned back around to see this hairy looking thing get back up on his feet. Or, at least tried to, but he stumbled, losing balance almost every second. He shook off the pain though when he noticed the cat looking right at him.

It hissed at him, which startled him at first, as if it was telling him to scram before running off down the sidewalk and right into the woods.

"Huh? Hey, wait!" Sonic reached out to the cat that already disappeared but then noticed something incredibly off.

His hand. And his arm! It's a darker shade than his usual blue fur. And his hands, they look massive! The claws even look sharp too.

"What...?" He looked all over himself, from his body, to his quills, to his feet, which most of is showing because of the stretched out socks.

"What's happened to my body?" He asked out loud, then he quickly smacked his hand against his mouth in shock, eyes more wide. "What's happened to my VOICE?!" His rough sounding voice cracked on the last word.

His fluffy ears pinned down to his head as worry began to grow. "What the heck is going on? Why do I look like this??" He takes another long look at his monstrous hands, then the rest of his body. He can swore that he was slightly taller even.

He couldn't remember what had happened earlier before this sudden change. The only thing he could remember was that he was getting some water and then his insides were going crazy and then... Nothing.

At least that's what he thought had happened.

"I'm so confused..." He said, looking around to find himself in a familiar neighborhood. It's his own. He blinked, almost remembering the full events that came to this. "Why was I chasing that-? How did I-? Wh- WHAT IS HAPPENING?" He yelled out to no body but himself, begging for a proper answer for all of his questions.

He exhaled exhaustively, lumping his arms to the ground. It's quite surprising that his arms are long enough now for his knuckles to touch the ground.

Talk about a growth spurt.

"I need a mirror." He spoke to himself. He looked out to the opposite direction he was running in, knowing he was not too far from his house. He knew that Tom and Maddie were awake somehow and probably looking for him right now.

Run away.

Sonic shuddered, shaking away the thought of Tom and Maddie finding him as a whole different being. He quickly ran off to the same direction he's been going for a while. Strangely he's not going any more faster than this.

Deal with them later.

-

Eventually, he made it to town. It's so quiet and peaceful, too bad there is a weird looking beast amongst them trying his best to be silent.

He ran behind building to building, hoping that no one will spot him, despite the fact that it's possibly after twelve at this point.

He can't go back to Tom and Maddie, even if he wanted to. Something happened to him, and he knew it wasn't a good thing. He needs a better look at himself.

As he's walking through town, something caught the corner of his eye. A reflection of... Himself?

Is it really himself? Sonic got closer to the window to get a better look. He did gotten taller, but his fur color isn't too different. His hands still look huge, but not so much for his paws.

His quills gotten longer and grew white tips at the end of them, including his ears, which gotten bigger as well. Even his muzzle gotten bigger.

He caught the sight of his tail moving from the reflection. He looked behind him to see that his tail was more fluffy and longer, like a dog's tail. "What the...??"

He looked back at his reflection to notice something else.

His eyes.

The rest of his face didn't change too much, but his eyes... They're so bright.

The emerald green was more like a glowing slime green kind of color, and they look more dilated, as if he looked...

Wild.

Crazy, even.

Taking a good look at himself, he backed away slowly. He held his arm, almost forgetting his hands were big now. This change scared Sonic.

Badly.

He looked nothing like himself. He looked tough. Mean. Horrifying.

While staring at himself, bits of his memory was coming back. He slowly realized how this came to be.

The pain. Oh, God, the pain.

Was that really the power of Dark Gaia back there? This is his Nightmare form?

It's no wonder he was hurting like hell back at the house. It's energy got to him back at the woods when Crazy Carl was telling him that story.

It really was Dark Gaia energy. Dark Gaia is real.

Knowing all the information the came flooding back to him, he was more scared of his new look the longer he looked at his reflection.

That... thing, isn't Sonic. That can't be Sonic. That's not Sonic!

Don't fret.

"WHO?!" He screamed out loud, snapping his head behind him. There was no one. He was the only one in this part of town.

Great, first he turned into a half Nightmare creature, then he's hearing voices.

"Stop talking to me, creepy voice from wherever!" The Werehog barked at nothing. "I'm already having a moment, I don't need you to make it worse for me!"

I am not. I am comforting you.

"Pffft. Yeah, right." He grumbled, rolling his eyes. "Your unsettling impression of a chain smoking Batman voice isn't doing any kinds of comforting, my guy. Just sayin'."

It is best if you don't insult me, Sonic.

"Whooooookay how do you know my name??"

My energy is one with you. It knows everything about you.

"I think you should be more specific on what you mean by-" Sonic stopped himself, just now catching up on what was spoken. "...Your energy?"

Correct. I am Dark Gaia. I am speaking to you beyond the core of your planet as I speak.

Sonic just stood there and blinked multiple times, trying to process what the heck's been happening for the past ten minutes. "Y-You...? Wha...??"

First of all, he didn't know it, or they, can talk, and second they shouldn't be opening their mouths to Sonic out of all people after what they did to him.

"Well, now," He began. "Since you can hear me and all that jazz, can you do me a favor and CHANGE ME BACK TO NORMAL, YOU JERK?!" He roared loud enough for the whole town to hear.

"You can't just fused your weird energy things to anyone they come across! You're just taking away innocent lives! For DECADES!" After letting that out, he exhaled out loud, letting out some steam. Man, he's so ticked off.

You've heard of me.

"That's right." He said, fists clenched. "A pal of mine told me EVERYTHING about you, buddy!" He growled the last word coldly.

That's expected. Others have heard the "tale." They didn't last too long.

"Then why are you doing this if you could, just, pop another of your creatures out into existence instead of just possessing people?!"

I don't believe you understood how my minions work, Sonic. Nightmares, as I call them, were once the unfortunate humans you brought up who fell into my hands. Without the humans, I have no Nightmares to guide me into ruling this planet.

"'Ruling the planet?'" Sonic titled his head slightly at the last words. "Why would you do that??"

I've gone too long being shadowed by the drenched light. The Earth deserves to live in it's true nature; the darkness.

"Ah. So you're an emo. Gotcha."

After the little jester, Sonic's head was suddenly throbbing in intense pain. He cried out and fell to his knees, holding his head. Ringing could be heard.

Once more, it is best if you don't insult me. Unless you want to become a Nightmare before sunrise.

"Ow! Ow, ow! Okay, chill out! Stop it with that! Owww!" Sonic begged through his teeth.

Very well. Let that be a warning to you.

And just like that, the headache was gone, and so was the ringing. Sonic sat down on the pavement trying to catch his breath. "What is your problem, man?! Why me out of all people?! I didn't want any of this!"

Then it was your mistake to step foot into the infested forest. The energy does not leave one's body. It stays there, until the transformation is complete.

"You mean... This is just the beginning of a much bigger, creepier Werehog looking thing?!"

...Werehog?

"Gotta call it somethin'." He shrugged.

Ah. Well, whatever. Call it however you prefer, you are still part Nightmare, and soon, before the sun rises, you will ascend to the core of Earth. With me. As me.

"Fat chance, creep!" He cursed harshly, getting back up on his feet. "I once beat up some robots and kicked a mad doctor's butt! You think you can turn me into a Nightmare... Creature... Thing?!"

Fighting back is the worst mistake you can make if you think you can escape from Dark Gaia. You will never rid of me.

Sonic's ears flick for a second, as he remembered something from the story. "Wait... Yes! Yes I can! I'll find that, that uh, Light Bracelet magic weapon thingy!"

Light Gaia's Bracelet?

"Yeah! That's it!"

Don't make me laugh. No one has ever found that worthless item in centuries. How can you possibly find it when it was never found?

"I'll..." He was gonna fight back but paused. He couldn't help but think that they were right. It hasn't been found. But he swore he remembered Carl saying that the bracelet was sealed somewhere in Green Hills.

"I'll find it somehow. I'll find a way to get back to normal and get rid of you and your energy!" Despite not knowing where it could be, he is still positive on ridding Dark Gaia from him. He won't go down that easily.

It's cute that you believe that you're strong enough to break free of my wrath. May I remind you that even though your transformation isn't fully complete, I can still take control of your mind.

"Well, I'll fight back. You won't win for long."

Perhaps a demonstration is an order.

"What do you- AAGH!!" Sonic screamed in pain as the headache returned in effect, only this time, instead of fighting back the pain, he collapsed on all fours and starting growling, feeling rage and fury build up inside.

When he opens his eyes, they glow bright for a brief moment before Sonic suddenly ran off to a nearby building and ran right through the window, glass shattering everywhere in the bank and outside.

He climbed on top of the counter, ferociously attacking and ripping every computer monitor and paper on the counter. Then he goes for the chairs and rip them to shreds as well.

After a moment of letting out his feral anger, Sonic finally snapped back to reality, eyes now full of fear and confusion. It took him a moment to realize he has a chair in his mouth and quickly spits it out, disgusted by the taste of it.

Sonic. You will be one with Dark Gaia soon. But until then, you must find another batch of future Nightmares, so that way, my army will grow faster.

Sonic growled, but not like from earlier.

Besides, knowing your true power and skill. That Godlike speed of yours... I can use it to my advantage.

"OVER MY DEAD BODY!" He roared, sounding more unhinged and ready for more violence. He cupped his mouth, shocked to hear what just come out of his own mouth.

Don't abuse your anger too much. Even when I'm not in control, the energy can still come out every now and again. Be careful next time.

"I won't let you use my body or my powers to hurt my friends! You gotta be sick and twisted to think of something like that!" He growled, claws already coming out of his hands, ready for another fight with whatever.

That annoying and creepy voice can do nothing but chuckle. Chuckle in a very unsettling, nightmarish way that might've scare Sonic's anger away for a while.

You poor thing. Did you forget how your friends witnessed your transformation?

He blinked.

They were terrified. The weak, little hedgehog they once knew... Gone. Erased from the Earth, for good.

"O-Okay, granted they would be terrified, but..." He stuttered, thinking back on how worried his friends were back at the house when he was in pain.

But what?

He didn't say anything. He would protest, but they have a point. Tom and Maddie would've just ran away from town altogether after seeing him go on a rampage like that. It was already bad enough when he was transformed anyway.

Don't pretend that they'd still stay by your side after what had happened. Why would they protect a monster?

"I-I'm not a-"

You are part Nightmare now. No one will want to befriend a Nightmare. It sounds silly. Don't you think?

His ears pinned down as he think hard on this, and his eyes lowered, looking at the tiles, then his messed up socks ruined by his grown out paws.

Then his hands.

Hands that should belong to a monster.

But the monster... Was Sonic. The monster who almost destroyed a bank. Like some sort of beast ripping open a person. That monster was really him.

He sighed sadly, tears stinging his eyes. "I guess it does..."

They don't need you. Not anymore. But we need them, don't we?

"Wh... What?"

You will guide me to the humans from your home. You will share my energy with them. Make them part of me.

"I-I... NO!" He shrieked. "I don't want to hurt my p-!" He throat got stuck, stopping his sentence to early.

They are not your friends, Sonic. But they will be our new Nightmares very soon.

"I won't let you hurt them." He snarled quiet enough to be heard for the monster.

I won't. You will.

"NO. I. WON'T!!" He screamed as electricity burst out his quills, was light blue now glowing in a eerie light purple. His eyes were glowing again, and he snarled, showing his razor sharp teeth.

That energy. It's so powerful.

So strong.

It feels... Good.

"What in the world??" A voice cried out from outside the bank, snapping Sonic back to reality once again. He turn to see a random civilian shock to see a giant hole in the window and the big mess inside.

The biggest shock? A giant, hairy beast standing in the center, staring right at the man. He yelled out and backed off quickly.

"N-No! Wait!" Sonic said, putting his claws up, trying to reassure the man that he isn't going to hurt him. "This isn't what it looks like-"

"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!" He pointed at the beast.

Sonic gasped and backed off as well, feeling powerless and attacked.

"Oh, my God!"

"Holy crap!"

"What is that thing?!"

"Is that a werewolf?!"

More people came in to see the damage but mostly see this strange creature just standing in the building, surrounding by the mess he made.

Sonic was beginning to panic. He was breathing too fast, as he grabbed his chest, seeing all these humans back away in fear from the sight of him or most of them looking at him in revolt.

He looked like a freak.

Tears began to stream down to his muzzle as more people began to panic and run off. "NO! WAIT! I'M NOT A MONSTER!" He pleaded. "DON'T RUN AWAY!"

Of course, everyone was too afraid to hear the Werehog's cries as they run off out of the part of the town. Sonic ran out of the building through the window he broke. He was beginning to whimper, like a puppy, as stress fill from inside.

"PLEASE! DON'T LEAVE!"

"No freaking way." A familiar high pitched voice spoke out from his right. He turn to see...

Karen and Issac. Those dumb bullies who cause trouble in town. Karen, still sporting the ponytail for her blonde hair and purple shirt and jeans. Issac with his messed up looking hair do and clothes similar to his sister's.

"IS THAT BIGFOOT?!" Issac cried out, pointing at the blue creature. Karen then slapped his nose. "No, it is not Bigfoot, you dope." She hissed. "Take a long look at this dude."

Sonic backed up more. "Karen? Issac? I-I can explain-"

"Noooooooo way." Issac just got the hint. "And I thought your vampire costume was creepy. UUUGH!" He shuddered.

"What the heck happened to you, Man-Hog??" Karen asked, mortified by Sonic's new look.

"It's Dark Gaia! They're real! They're trying to control me and-"

"Dark Gaia? What are you talking about?" She interrupted, going back to her annoying snarky tone. "I am convinced this is what alien hedgehog puberty looks like."

"Huh. Now that you mentioned it..." Issac then said, squinting at the scared Werehog.

"Oh, shut it!" Sonic spit back. "Of course you don't care about the fact that I'm an ACTUAL WEREHOG!"

"Well, whatever that is, it is not pretty for the human eyes." Karen crossed her arms and swung most of her bangs out of the way.

"Dude. We should go. I am NOT going near that thing now!" Issac said, getting behind his big sister. Karen groaned in annoyance. "Chill out, ya big baby. It's not like Sonic Wachowski is gonna pounce on you and rip your head off. He's too much like a puppy than a Werehog." She mocked, looking right at Sonic.

Sonic gasped. His eyes glow bright for a second, feeling fury rising inside him.

"Puppies can bite too, ya know." Issac said.

"Yeah, and they suck at it. Why are you so scared, Issac? Sonic can't do crap to even scratch one of his nasty claws at you."

"Quit it." He barked quietly.

Karen and Issac looked at Sonic. One with worry and the other with an offended look on her face. "What was that, ya blue rat?"

"I think you heard me." He glared right at her, his eyes glowing brighter.

"Ooooooooooh crap we gotta go NOW, Karen." Issac said, preparing to run off.

"Cool your jets, Issac. He's just upset because he finally realized how ugly he is." She said, smiling an ugly, annoying smile.

Sonic was snarling now, wanting this girl to shut up.

"Dawwwww, what's the matter, boy?" She mocked, acting like she's talking to a small dog. "Are you fussy because you didn't get to pway outside?" She said in the excruciating baby talk of all time.

"Pl-Please." Sonic stuttered out, realizing what's happening to him. "Sh-Shut up!" He said, shutting his eyes tight and looking away from the two teens.

"You don't tell me to shut up, Man-Hog!" Karen argued. "No one does! You better take that back or else!" She took a step forward, threatening the poor Werehog.

"Go away...!" He begged harshly.

Stay where you are.

"Oh, that is it." She coldly spoke, gritting her teeth.

Let it out.

Before he could run away, she grabbed Sonic's hairy wrist. "Take. It. Back, you stupid alien!" She hissed, pulling on his ear to get his attention.

"OW! STOP! NO!" He cried, trying to set himself free from this bully's grasp.

Unleash your inner Nightmare.

Sonic opened his eyes right into Karen's soul, like a snake's eye hungry for blood. She then realized her mistake as he growled louder, this time, like an lion ready to kill it's enemy.

And that is exactly what he's gonna do.

With a loud, ferocious roar, he jumped onto of Karen, trying to scratch her. She screamed in horror, trying to push him off of her. "KAREN!" Issac called out her name, standing there, still refusing to approach the feral beast.

"NO! GET OFF! HELP!!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs as Sonic nearly bit her face off, and prepares to punch her in the face.

POW!

Everyone watching the scene gasped and fled from the scene, either to call for help and just escape from the Werehog in case their next. Another punch landed on her as the Werehog continued roaring at her.

Then, at that moment, a couple come running in seeing everyone fleeing. The sheriff and his wife then see the Werehog himself beating up Karen.

"SONIC?!" They both cried.

Hearing their voices, Sonic shook off his fury and snapped back to his sense. Realizing what's happening, he gasped loudly, backing away from the bruised girl, who was now crying.

"Karen! Are you okay?" Isaac ran in to support his sister back up. "NO I DON'T LOOK OKAY, YOU IDIOT!" She yelled between sobs. "DO I LOOK OKAY?!"

Sonic was horrified by his actions. He took a few steps back before turning around to see them.

"T-Tom? Maddie?" He croaked.

The two stared in awe.

They all just stared at each other in silence. Most people in town just watched the scene unfold. Sonic began to shake, looking down at his hands.

"Wh-What have I done...?"

You know what to do now.

He looked back up at his former friends and felt sick to his stomach. Tears were streaming down like a waterfall. He felt like a monster.

He is a monster.

He's a Nightmare.

"I'm sorry." He sobbed before running away on all fours, crying loudly into town. "Sonic!" They both said his name and reaching out for him.

From the distance, an older gentlemen seen the whole scene from when the beast barged into the bank to seeing his guardians walk in at the wrong time.

He blinked, processing everything. "Holy cow." Carl finally spoke.

-

In the heart of the forest of Green Hills, Sonic was sobbing uncontrollably into his big, fluffy arms on the ground by a leafless tree. Some hiccups and some sniffles, the sobs escaped and echoed through the woods, for no one but Dark Gaia to hear.

After what it felt like hours of being alone and crying, he rose his head, his eyes bloodshot and tired, to see a pond in front of him. He doesn't have the strength to get up, he can only crawl over to the pond.

His reflection.

His stupid, supernatural reflection.

Why did this happen? Why did he cause havoc like that? Why would he do that to Karen? She may be a brat but she didn't deserve it.

The worst part? Tom and Maddie witnessed everything. Now they know how much of a monster Sonic truly is.

It was his fault for lashing out like that.

It was his fault for running into the woods before heading home.

He snarled at himself at the pond, his eyes glowing once more. "I hate you." He growled. "I hate you, SO MUCH!!!" He punched the pond multiple times with his giant fists, crying out non stop.

No matter how many times he punched the water, the reflection just doesn't go away. It refused to go away. It's there now. It'll always be there.

The Werehog is going to stay.

Sonic will always be a Werehog.

Finally, he stopped attacking his reflection, continuously sobbing, but quietly, feeling exhausted and hopeless.

You are overwhelmed by your new power. Rest. You need all the energy you need to gain me new Nightmares.

"Please..." He choked, shutting his eyes, not wanting to see himself in the pond anymore. "Go away... Please..."

Like I said, Sonic, you will not rid of me.

He has given up fighting with the stupid voice at this point. Who cares of Light Gaia's Bracelet is found or not, what he did back there was unacceptable.

Tom and Maddie will never forgive him for what he did back there, nor will he ever show his face in Green Hills again. Or anywhere, ever again.

He wished he never believed this when he entered the woods but...

Dark Gaia won.

Feeling sorrow rising within him, he slowly rose his head up to the sky and lets out a loud, but heartbreaking cry for the whole town to hear.

"AWWOOOOOOOOOoooooooo..."

-

To be concluded...

[weirdozjunkary]

I made another small fic for the movie version of the MVA AU cause I think its fun. It might evolve into its own thing unrelated to MVA, but I really like this funny au of an au

Wedding crasher

(Another movie MVA AU fic oneshot)

The sun beamed down on the beautiful Hawaiian beachside. It was a beautiful day for a wedding. Beautiful it was. But maybe too much.

Triiiing—Triiiing! Triiiing—Triiiing!

Toms phone began ringing before Rachel and Randal could exchange their vous. “Sorry! Sorry! My bad! I thought it was on silent!” Tom nervously chuckled as he shit off his phone. He revived daggers from the bride who already hated his guts.

Triiiing—Triiiing! Triiiing—Triiiing!

“So help me, Thomas!” Rachel shouted at him.

“Sorry! Sorry! Let me just take this! I’m so sorry!” He said and ran off to the side to take the call as silently as he could. “What?!” He silently shouted at the hedgehog from his phone. “This better be an emergency, or so help me I’ll…. What’s that noise?”

“Oh uh… there is a little bit of an emergency!” Sonic sheepishly said. The wind blowing wildly into the phones receiver.

“What’s going on? Why are you so close to the camera? Did you get into trouble again?”

“You could say that….” He had no idea how to tell him what had happened. I mean, how do you explain that you grew 50-feet in one knight, turned blue, an angry echidna has teamed up with a man that you both thought was dead by now, and now you are again running away from them with an unconscious fox in your palm because they want you dead. Actually, knowing Tom, he wouldn’t really be that surprised by any of this.

“Oh my god. Do I really need to come home, now?

“No no no! You’re good! I just need you to throw the ring I gave you, like right now!”

“What? Why?”

“Listen, I got only one ring on my right now, and it won’t be big enough! I need you to throw it, NOW!”

Big enough? What the hell did he mean by that? Was he bringing a truck through or something? “Okay, just hold on a minute! How do I even do this?!”

“Just picture where you want the ring to go! Now picture this!” Sonic struggled to turn the phone around to face the front of him. There, what Tom saw was the massive snowy mountains of Siberia.

“Why are you in Siberia?!”

“JUST THROW THE DAMN RING!”

At the alter, though trying to enjoy the moment, Rachel noticed Tom, silently yelling to the hedgehog whom she suspected to be at the other side of the phone. She sighed. Of course, that little devil had caused enough destruction to her life, even if it was minor. What was he even doing now? Oh god, was he really bringing that little idiot here? Now of all times?

She watched as Tom threw the ring he had in his pocket and created that familiar golden portal that she had seen Sonic use at least once before. But what she didn’t expect was for it to suddenly double in size. The sight managed to catch everyone’s attention.

Screaming came from it. A booming scream that grew increasingly louder and louder, and Tom grew increasingly more and more shocked. He jumped out of the way just as a giant hedgehog fell through it. The ring disappeared not long after.

“Ugh… ow…” Sonic groaned, slowly sitting up from the now ruined grass.

“S-Sonic?” Tom said warily. “Are…. Are you alright?”

He waved a hand to him. “Hey. Yeah. I’m good.”

“Good, good… because YOURE IN SO MUCH FUCKING TROUBLE!”

“Language!”

“DONT BACK TALK TO ME! WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOU?! YOU GREW FIFTY FEET IN TWO DAYS?!”

“Actually like five minuets.”

“WHAT?!”

“Okay, Tom! You need to calm down!” Maddie said, putting a hand on him. She pointed to the hedgehog. “Now YOU! Talk! Now!”

“Okay, long story short. I got hit by presumably this magic emerald which caused me to be like this. Robotnik came back with this echidna name Knuckles and now they’re trying to kill me! I grabbed Tails and- wait- TAILS!”

“Wait- Tails? Who is Tails?”

Sonic looked around him and lifted up the still unconscious fox from the dirt. He poked him with a finger. “Tails, please! Please wake up! Come on!” He lightly shook his hand.

“Sonic. Give him to me.” Maddie said.

“O-okay. Alright.” Sonic stammered. He gently placed the fox on the ground in front of her. God, he was really banged up. “Please, Maddie! He has to be alr-AH!” Sharp pain stuck into his shoulder. He put a hand over it and looked at what had hit him. Sleeping darts. Hundreds of them. Heavy duty ones too.

“Sonic?” Tom called out in worry.

“Wait! No…. I have… to…” A drowsiness came over him almost instantly and he struggled to keep his eyes open. “No… Tails…” He crashed onto the ground with a shaking thud, his hand falling into the altar beside him. Just after, various men across the crowed had drawn out guns they had kept hidden in the wedding ceremony.

“What the hell?!” Tom cursed.

“Randal, why do all your friends have guns?” Rachel said.

“It’s okay everyone, we’re federal agents.” Said a man holding up a badge. He turned to Tom and Maddie. “You really should have brought me up on that brunch Mister and Misses Wachowski.”

Tom squinted his eyes. “Olive Garden guy?”

“Correct. Though you may call me by my credentials. My name is Commander Walters, and as a federal agent, I’m calling jurisdiction on this site. We knew you still had the hedgehog in custody, Wachowski, but we knew you would never hand him over willingly. So we decided to create ‘operation catfish’.”

“Operation catfish?!” Rachel shouted. “You mean to tell me, that this ENTIRE WEDDING was a SET UP?!”

“Rachel, please. Listen to me.” Randal calmly said.

“IM DONE LISTENING!” Before she could do anything, she was held back by two men.

“I’m so sorry.” Randal said sombrely.

“Hey wait!” Tom shouted as he ran towards the army men who began to pin sonic down with rope, lots of it. “STOP IT! LET HIM GO!” He punched one of them in the face before two more pinned him to the ground. “GET OFF OF ME!”

“What are you doing?!” Maddie exclaimed. “Sonic isn’t a threat! He’s on our side!”

“He’s an uncontrolled extraterrestrial, and right now he is over 15 meters because of some ‘emerald’. He is more of a threat now than he has ever been!” He turned to the men, who now had Sonic, Tom, and the unconscious Tails in their custody. “Secure them here until the copper arrives.”

The rest of the men shooed everyone else away from the scene. Even Maddie and Rachel, who now had to figure out how to save the three of them.

The Knuckles Series - Review

Okay. So.

Finished the series.

I have thoughts.

First of all, it was fun. I view it as kinda filler episode material, that if someone watched just the movies they wouldn’t miss much. I watched it with my family and there were times we were all laughing and cheering and just enjoying the ride. It was silly and fun and Knuckles was adorable in every scene he was in.

That said, was it perfect?

No. No, it was not.

Here’s my take on some problems.

~ Setup felt rushed

We had the barest glimpse into Knux’s difficulty adjusting to a life on Earth, which, honestly, just made it look like he wasn’t being challenged enough. He can’t go from being on the run and fighting for his life at every turn to just sitting around playing VR and goofing off. That’s just not who he is.

Not to mention, his interpersonal skills are practically non-existent. He fought his whole childhood away. Presumably, anyone who came near him either wanted to exploit him, use him, or fight him. So he’s used to just doing things on his own, with no one to answer to, or take into consideration. That’s what I saw at the beginning—and honestly, it may have been easily handled had Maddie sat down with him and actually tried to get to know and understand him a little better.

~ Maddie

I felt for her, I really did. And I get that she was frustrated. Tom’s off who-knows-where, and she’s left at home trying to get the damage to the house fixed, while keeping tabs on three super powered alien kids, one of whom is actively attacking handymen, dragging a ton of dirt and sharpened sticks into the living room to make a warrior fighting pit, and dismantling the car to build himself an Iron Throne in the dining room.

She’s frustrated, and doing everything she can to keep herself from snapping. She didn’t sign up for this, but now has to learn on the fly how to deal with three very different, and very special needs kiddos.

But her referring to Knuckles as “our little red barbarian friend” kinda rubbed me the wrong way. He’s not a barbarian. He’s a warrior. He’s a traumatized kid who feels like the honor of his entire tribe rests on his shoulders. He’s struggling with this change and instead of trying to sit down and talk to the kid to explain how things are done on Earth, and see if there was some kind of agreement they could reach to keep them both happy, she just kinda gives up and walks away. Not very understanding, and doesn’t make her come off looking very good.

~ Pachacamac

Okay, this is just weird. Pachacamac, for those who don’t know, in the games is the warmongering echidna tribe chief who led the warriors in an assault to take the Master Emerald’s power for themselves. In the process, they enraged Chaos, the God of Destruction, who all but wiped out the Knuckles clan.

I know, I know, game and movie universes are different. The movie team has taken liberties before with certain aspects of Sonic lore, so this shouldn’t be any different.

Except it is. Canonically, Pachacamac is not a good guy. He’s not even a morally gray character. He is not an honored chief, who trained Knuckles and is now his wise spirit guide. He was the cause of the fall of Knuckles’ entire tribe, thanks to his greed and lust for power.

Making Pachacamac essentially Yoda is like changing Robotnik into a kindly grandfather figure. I mean, what??

The only thing I can think this harkens back to is Longclaw’s little hologram message from the second movie, in which she gives Sonic a quest to find the Master Emerald before Knuckles does. Which, okay, it’s a lost loved one giving a final message to help direct the character on a new path.

Except, Pachacamac isn’t a lost loved one for Knuckles. We did not see any interaction between Knux and Pach. We did see interaction between Knuckles and his father, who would have been a much better choice to send his son on a new path.

(I did, however, see this post that makes SOOOOO much sense in why Pachy appears to Knux, and instructs him to train Wade, specifically.)

~ The Master Emerald

Speaking of, WHERE IS IT? It was referenced numerous times, but never shown once. The absolute least the show could have done was show it well secured, with a Tails’ created security system in place. Show Knux meditating near it, or praying to his ancestors that they can rest easy knowing that the Emerald is safely back in the hands of the echidna once more.

The absolute lack of a presence of it is strange, considering the pursuit of it was what caused the near extinction of both the echidna and the owls. It was Knuckles’ focus for his entire life. Yet he simply leaves it behind without a second thought?

~ Wanda

OMG I hated Wade’s sister. Just, hated her. She was immature, abrasive, abusive, unnecessarily antagonistic with Wade (which seemed to be a life-long thing if the flashbacks are anything to go by) and just struck me as someone who was overcompensating for something. She’s a bully and it’s no wonder Wade is the way he is if he had to grow up with someone like her.

~ No Closure

We didn’t see them arrive back home, where Maddie would hand them their asses for just disappearing like that and not telling her. She was likely worried out of her mind the whole time. And I would have liked to have seen Sonic and Tails try to cover for Knux’s absence, in funny little brotherly shenanigans.

As I said above, I still found it fun. I loved Mother Whipple. I loved Knux’s interactions with her. I loved how Wade grew over their little trip. It was an enjoyable ride, and my whole family really had fun.

How would I have done it differently?

Well, that’s a different post.

[oceanera12]

So, what do you think would happen if Nine went to other sonic verses?

Oh Anon, you do not know what you just unleashed.

KAY I'M A TRY AND KEEP THIS SHORT BUT NO PROMISES

(So many verses so little time, let's try and keep them in a semblance of a line. "Sonic verses" are varied in their definition. So I suppose we'll have to take some guesses in submission.)

(In other words, you weren't specific on what you meant by Sonic verses which means you have unleashed too many ideas at once).

RIGHT, LET'S START FROM THE BEGINNING:

Nine in Sonic SatAM would be absolutely terrifying because everyone would think he's some kind of time-traveled version of their Tails. Aka, they failed in the revolution and Tails turned into whoever this is. Nine would not care to correct them because why should he help some chipmunk princess and her entourage? He just wants to leave/get home, give him some power rings so he can get out of this universe that is much too similar to his with the whole Robotiziation thing going on. Nine is out of there and Tails is left praying he never turns into that weirdo.

Similar situation in Sonic Underground universe but since there is no Tails there, it's more like one of those random off-shoot episodes. They would meet Nine, fixing up his ship, at first fight him because they think he's an agent of Robotnik (the robot metal tails). Then Nine would most likely knock out the siblings, tie them up, and just let them sit there while he continued fixing his ship up. There would not be a lot of bonding it would be more of a, "Well, what are you up to?" "Fixing a ship." "Oh. We are trying to overthrow a tyrant." "Oh. Well, good luck with that." And then Nine lets them go and leaves or something, IDK

Archie Sonic Comics already have so many alternate zones that Nine showing up really wouldn't make anyone panic too much. HOWEVER--

Zonic would be trying to find where Nine is from and be very very confused when Nine is like, "Yeah, I'm from another another universe." Z: ???? *sends him to Sonic Prime because he has no idea what else to do and has a lot more issues to deal with (Scourge is one of them).*

So Sonic Prime and company (Nine: "You all exist here? Weird." *referring to SatAM*) help Nine with little trouble. Tails Prime tries to bond with his slightly older and less social self but it doesn't really go anywhere. Sonic Prime tries to figure out what happened to this version of Tails, but Nine is not really forthcoming so he gives up and they help him back into their ship.

Game Timeline (we'll say after Frontiers because why not?), Sonic is alone because all his friends went off to develop as characters (good for them!!!). So he's a bit concerned/terrified when Nine shows up because he hasn't seen or heard from his little brother in a few weeks.

Poor Sonic thinks Nine has amnesia or something and it takes multiple explanations to get it across that he is NOT Tails (also an actual phone call from Tails). Similar dynamic with Sonic Prime Sonic and this Sonic, only Nine knows that this Sonic is not even going to consider leaving with him because he has a Tails already. However, I do think Game Sonic would give Nine some kind of gift to remember him by (a screwdriver or wrench perhaps?) And Nine would be a little sad to leave but this place already has a him and he's seen enough worlds now to know that no world needs two of him.

Movie Sonic would be absolutely horrified by this duplicate little brother of his and drag the kid to Tom and Maddie and his Knuckles and his Tails in an absolute panic either claim the government is trying to clone them, shape-shifting aliens are invading, or evil versions of themselves are coming to kill them all.

Nine is not amused, yanks himself out of the Hedgehog's grip, climbs up the wall to the ceiling (Knuckles: AHHH! THE METAL TAILED DEMON CAN WALK ON WALLS!), and Nine just glares at them all while explaining he just needs to get to his ship, his name is Nine, not Evil Tails or Tails or Clone Tails, and he is from a different dimension and does not want to be here anymore than they want him here.

Yeah, Maddie and Tom adopt this child instantly as do Sonic and Tails (it takes Knuckles a bit to come around). They almost convince Nine to stay with them (Tails: We could be twins! It would be amazing!) But Nine is a stubborn boy and would sneak away in the night with only a note left behind.

Leaving that world is one of the only times Nine wishes he had his own family to go back to.

Sonic X (post Season 3) for fun let's say that Nine crashes outside of Eggman's base, is found by Shadow or Rouge, and is taken before the evil doctor. Nine is considerably annoyed at the turn of events and single-handedly hacks into Eggman's system, breaks out of his cell, makes the robots turn on Eggman so Shadow and Rouge are kept busy, activates the self-destruct sequence and then just nopes out of the dimension with a stolen power cell of some kind. (Sonic and Co in the distance: "Gee, Eggman must have messed up badly or something because his base just blew up and we didn't do it for once.)

Sonic Boom (TV series) would make Nine want to commit murder. He takes one look around and decides: no, he really doesn't want to deal with the insane Badger or the really really stupid Knuckles. So he does the smart thing and sneaks into Tails' workshop, jumps the kid, explains the situation, and Tails agrees to help him get home. Of course, shenanigans ensue and this turns into an episode of "Guys, Tails is hiding something from us. Let's try and figure out what!" With the incorrect conclusion being that Tails has decided to join Eggman or something and the crew break-in to fight him.

Nine comes back from a supply run (stealing things from Eggman) to find Tails tied up and under interrogation from his friends (Sonic is playing good cop while Amy is trying to be bad cop but Sticks keeps interrupting. Knuckles is holding the bright light in Tails face.)

Nine is not amused and ends up jumping all of them with Sticks screaming about EVIL CLONES HAVE COME TO REPLACE THEM ALL!!!

Tails jumps in and stops everyone from attacking, explains his alternate self, and Nine holds up that last piece he needs to fix his ship and leave.

So he does, with apologies to both Tails and Nine (minus Sticks because Sticks) and Nine leaves.

That is all I got at the moment but GOODNESS GRACIOUS--

Friends and roommates he says 😂 as the footage shoes the bros' themed beds.

Hey wait a sec! Tails bed is the same color as Tornado 2! That's his plane!

Not even gonna let them fix the stuff he broke XD plz this kid is so silly.

Not only did he hunt down construction workers but is eating Doritos and chilling afterwards. Oh he's gonna face mother's wrath.

These parts were fun...

Oookay, narrative devices indicate Knuckles would act more as a supporting character, and Wade is the focus. How will I survive watching this series I don't want to spend 3 hours watching a focus on just Wade

No. Only his brother gets to call him Knucks :D

Mutant Mayhem trailer flashbacks

G.U.N... They're really keeping track of the boys aren't they. Where'd they get the ring?! From the ones Sonic dropped back in Siberia?

Wait, so are these two actually working for GUN or just... Doing their own thing by using the agency's resources?

They have cages constructed to contain superpowered mobians?! *Remembers about Shadow* oh right

Oooh, he better rescue Knuckles if he doesn't want Maddie to kill him. On that note, wonder how she would react to that whole adventure.

Hmm. Ending sequence is cool though.

I might not post reactions to the 2nd episode.

........

So all in all, I absolutely loved and adored up till it was at the Wachowski household. Tails is very precious, Sonic is so caring, Knuckles is silly, Maddie full out going Mom mode and Sonic actually warning about it heh. The little few Tails moments are really good, they are great brothers.

And the rest of the episode is.. alright I guess? I sense a lot of focus on Wade, entirely. It's not even about Knuckles adjusting to his life on earth no, even Pachacamac's was entirely hung up on Wade as some sort of prophecized main character. Very happy for the few moments of bros, not so much for where the series is seemingly heading. (I don't know what happens, these are my thoughts so far)

[the-sinful-voice-witch]

Long time ago I made a post about how I picture Amy's participation in the next sonic movie in case she appears and now is my waifu turn, the echidna tamer, the sexy thief, shiny things lover... Rouge The Bat!

But First and foremost let's send all our love to this artist @thepinkgalaxy55 because thanks to this fanart he drew and posted in Twitter (same user name) I was able to unblock a part of my brain that couldn't imagine Rouge in the "realistic" CG of the movies with her original outfit, just look at her!!! PinkGalaxy55 is a GENIUS, this is just so perfect!😍😍😍😍 💞💞💞💞

It totally solved my problem with how her Chest and fur could be without making it weird you know that sometimes realistic CGI in this kind of cartoon style could end up looking really... uncanny. Honestly they should make Rouge exactly like he drew her, if they don't I'm going to be very disappointed.

So, how I imagine her in the next movie, see if I can keep it simple:

If you read my other post about Amy I talked about the chaos energy that Sonic and Knuckles have that enhances speed and strength but my theory about Amy is that her hammer and tarot cards are some kind of chaos item that can detect chaos emeralds so if Rouge is trying to track all emeralds and the master emerald I think she probably has a few of them already when she finds out about Amy, who is traveling through the Rings using the power of the tarot cards to track "the hedgehog hero" to give him the emerald, Rouge also already knows about knuckles like Tails did in the second movie and finds out faster than Amy where that "hedgehog hero" is and goes before her.

I don't know which scenario could be the best to make her be involved with G.U.N and meet Shadow 🤔🤔 but I think the most realistic would be that she hears some agents talking about emeralds and a Hedgehog and she follows them, gets caught by Shadow and then saves her ass offering her services as a spy giving them information about a female hedgehog that she knows will eventually get to earth and has an emerald and can detect the chaos energy so here is when my other post about Amy in the movie will be connected, they ambush Amy who is fooled by thinking Shadow is the hero hedgehog the tarot cards told her to find but quickly realizes he is not being heroic and is captured.

After winning over G.U.N through this actions she's given permission to go look for more emeralds but what she has in mind is the master emerald or maybe she simply scaped after they let their guard down, so she finds out about Knuckles through... I don't know, investigating about Sonic's human family? Maybe because she heard Randall talking with Rachel on the phone and she picked up something, so she infiltrates herself on Tom and Maddie's neighborhood and then we'll have the first confrontation with Knuckles and we could have a hell of a good first fight full of banter, but this time I don't think it makes sense to break the master emerald, is way too small for that compared to the game so I think the best option is that a third person simply steals the emerald while they fight (and I personally hope that person is Eggman) but this time Knuckles doesn't break it and then they go separate ways to get it back. If we could include the scene of Shadow saving her it could be after her confrontation with Knuckles, since she will end up finding the other emeralds and then the exact scene of the game can happen. In all this time right before her second confrontation with Knuckles, she could perfectly be investigating on the way about Shadow's origins and his relationship with "Robotnik" and confront him about.

Then she finds out where the master emerald is hidden and goes to get it but Knuckles gets in her way and there it is my second heated epic fight 🤤🤤, let's make some adjustments so my favorite part makes sense, I want to see how because of one of Knuckles' attacks she gets a dislocated wing, this way after the arguing when she trips and falls we won't have people (including me) saying: but she has wings! 😂😂 There, solved. And of course I want my romantic part: Knuckles saves her, they look into each others eyes, she gets embarrassed and lashes out, he gets mad, she returns the goods and he apologizes for hurting her wing and go separate ways again (you know what? Next post I'm going to write this scene with dialogue exactly how I want it, you'll see).

So returning to other matters and following the game storyline she appears in front of Sonic and friends again to tell them that the ark is going to crash on earth and they're going to die (or whatever other reason they come up with but please make it sense of it) , sonic goes to stop it, Shadow helps him, Shadow disappears and Sonic gives his ring to Rouge. Then the other scene with Knuckles and Rouge before saying goodbye that has a little conversation (ok I'm totally writing this scene in my next post too)

And for the last of her in this movie I think...: Knuckles is teasing Sonic about having interest in the female hedgehog 😏😏 and Sonic lashes out telling him that maybe he is projecting because he misses the Bat-girl and Knuckles gets defensive saying he would never have interest in a dishonorable thief no matter how charming she was and besides Amy is now their neighbor (because she is living with Wade, read my post about Amy for more information) while he will never see that burgal bat again... And then boom! Maddie gets a video call from Rachel 😂😂😂, who is a bit pissed off because Randall (G.U.N agent) brought a suspicious winged animal with too much make up at home that is going to be a bad influence to her daughter 😂😂 and Randall defends himself saying he was ordered to watch her😂😂 and then Rouge pops up in the video and greets and tease knuckles (hello again handsome) and he is a mix of surprised, angry but kind of happy to see her again... Oh but this part has to be in the same playing baseball with Amy and Wade ending scene... Well, I think it works 🙃🙃🙃 and that's it.

what do you think would happen if the Wachowski family meets Nine??? Like Nine accidentally transported into their world in there home??? What would happen???

Nine Discovers the SCU

Nine has decided that he’s gonna go home now. Unfortunately, somewhere he takes a wrong turn and ends up in the front yard of the Wachowskis. Tom, who was in the middle of weed whacking, is staring at the ship that has now landed in his yard with the most confused and shocked look.

Nine realizes he has now killed this poor guys lawn and feels bad. He exits his ship to apologize to Tom before he starts getting aggressive. Tom is even more baffled seeing Nine. He looks a lot like Tails, but less fluffy, more scruffy, a bit taller, wearing clothes, and his ears are tinted orange towards the tips with lil fluffs of fur.

“Tails??“ Tom says, approaching Nine who backs up. Nine is no longer angry being called Tails, he’s used to it now “I’m not Tails. The name’s Nine.”

“Tom, nice to meet you.” Tom wonders if this is one of his sons alternate universe friends that he hasn’t met or heard of yet. Tom puts away his weed whacker “are you a friend of my sons? My youngest has picked up a hobby of.. universe hopping I think he calls it?” Tom asks. Nine shakes his head “I haven’t been to this universe yet. I don’t know who you or your sons are.” he says bluntly.

Suddenly, a blue hedgehog appears in the window of the living room “DAAAAD MOM WANTS TO KNOW IF- who’s that?” Sonics face is pressed up against the screen of the window. He disappears back into the house and comes out the door with Tails and Knuckles. Tails is immediately attracted to the ship in his yard like a moth to a lämp. Knuckles is giving Nine a puzzled look. It’s like he can smell the loneliness in this kid. Sonic remembers his task “oh yea, dad, mom wants to know if you wanted potatoes or carrots for dinner.” Sonic asks looking at his father. Tom thinks for a second “tell her that potatoes are good.” Sonic rushes off to pass the message and the news of a new arrival and returns to his dad and brothers.

Nine blinks “..this Sonic has parents? What’s next, does he have siblings too?” Tails and Knuckles turn to face Nine then look at each other. Nine’s eyes widen “no way..”

“YEAH WAY!” Sonic pops up between his brothers and slings his arms around their shoulders to pull them close to him. Nine is baffled. “Why would.. yknow what I’m not gonna ask.”

Tails looks confused “do you.. not consider your Sonic family?” Nine snickers “pff- no! I barely know him. He’s the closest thing to a friend I’ve got, though.. and my sonic? As far as I’m concerned he isn’t even MY Sonic. I don’t know if my universe has one!” Nine takes some deep breaths.

Nine is frustrated.. why do these alternate versions of him get to have friends and family, and he doesn’t? What has he done to deserve to be so alone? To face the pain and turmoil of his reality alone?

“Are you alright, other Tails?” Knuckles gives Nine a concerned look. Nine’s frustration breaks out a little “IM NOT TAILS, MY NAME IS NINE!” He shows off his nine tails which makes the others back up. Knuckles doesn’t want to fight him, but he positions himself in front of his brothers.

Tom crouches to Nine’s height “hey.. hey, bud sorry we upset you.. deep breaths.” Nine takes deep breathes “Im..sorry. It’s been a long day.. week? I have no idea how long it’s been..”

Sonic gasps “oh then no wonder you’re upset, Nine! You must be hungry. You should join us for dinner!”

Nine looks at him. He’s being invited to dinner? He shouldn’t..

But he did! He’s now at the dinner table. As soon as he takes that first bite, it’s obvious that this poor kid was hungry.

“So, Nine where do you come from?” Maddie starts.

“I came from what can be best described as a toxic wasteland ruled by the Chaos Council, which according to another Sonic I met, essentially consists of 5 Eggman..Eggmen? Whatever. It sucks, and there’s no blue skies, no palm trees, no ocean, no green, nothing. Just a bunch of miserable lonely people who either fight, die, or die fighting. Then one day a blue hedgehog broke into my house and called me Tails and I tried to kill him. That’s about it for where I’m from.” Nine lays down his fork.

The others process. Nine continues “oh and I found out that my Sonic might not even be my Sonic. And I don’t even know where he is, he keeps running fast enough to warp somewhere? For all I know, he’s in the void.”

“I’ve never run that fast, that’s kinda cool!” Sonic is trying to see light in the situation. Then Tom reminds him “you caused a blackout across the continent.” which makes him frown.

“Question. What is that?” Nine points to Ozzie who’s begging for food. Tails laughs “that’s Ozzie! That’s what dogs look like here on Earth!” “Oh.” Nine notes that. Odd dog creature.

Knuckles clears his throat “have you met another me?” Nine snorts “you’re the 4th Knuckles I’ve met. The others are fighting for freedom, dumb as a rock, one telling me it’s ok to want others in my life, and then there’s you.” Knuckles nods then chuckles “I think I have met the dumb one. He’s a good guy.”

Nine looks at him “you have?”

Sonic responds “yea! His Tails and our Tails mess with the multiverse sometimes.. though I think other Tails had his gun taken away from him because he kept risking the collapse of the universe?”

Nine blinks “oh..” Tails laughs “it’s universal!”

Soon, Tails is showing Nine his Pokémon cards in the attic. Nine is very confused, but he’s trying his best to understand.

Tails notices Nine is looking down. “Are you ok? Sorry I’m rambling..” Tails puts his hand on Nine’s shoulder. Nine shakes his head “no, it’s ok.. I’m.. I’m glad you have something you like..” vs

“Do you not have anything you like?”

“I like to invent. That’s it. What is there more to like? There’s nowhere to pursue any kind of hobby. Can’t even hang out with friends because I don’t have any.” Nine says starting to let out his stress again “every single universe I’ve went to, you’ve had Sonic. Every single universe I’ve went to, you get to have friends and be happy. Do I.. not deserve that? Why was I the only one cursed to suffer with no one?! I haven’t even seen an ocean or trees or stars until today! Sonic is the closest thing I have to a friend and I’m gonna have to say goodbye to him.” Nine starts to tear up.

“Nine..” Tails starts

“I don’t even know why he bothers with me! He’s already got him. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great that in some reality I get to be happy, but.. I just wish I had the chance to achieve it with or without that stupid hedgehog. Heck.. why am I so wrapped around someone I barley know?! It’s like I’ve known him for years! Which is very trippy AND I HATE IT.” Nine holds his face in his hands as Tails gently wraps his arms around him.

“Nine.. listen to me.” Tails begins “You still have many chances to be happy. You still have so much of your life left. If you want things to change, be that change you want to see. Everyone has bad days and rough times, but I think it helps to know that even if they’re rough, things are gonna get better someday.”

Nine takes it in for a moment then clings to Tails and sobs into his shoulder. Years of anguish and sadness and loneliness comes out in streams of tears. Tails starts to cry with him.

They cry with each other for a little while before pulling away to wipe the tears away. “Maybe it’s just in our nature to have a speedy blue hedgehog as a best friend. He changed both of our lives. Let’s make that change worthwhile, ok?” Tails smiles at Nine who smiles back “ok! Thanks Tails..”

“it’s no problem! And hey, maybe I should make myself a set of those cool extra tails you have!”

“You should!”

“NO” they hear Sonic shouting from somewhere in the house. The two laugh.

Tails is very briefly allowed to check out the ship before Nine heads out. Maddie gives him leftover food and some bottles of water for his travels.

Time to go home.

HI I LOVE YOUR FICS AND ALSO I wanted to ask what would your dream sonic movie be? I know you talked about it being unabashedly like the games (like the Mario movie) and potentially adapting sa1 BUT what kind of themes and messages would this theoretical movie have? And what might you change or modify if you’re adapting sa1. Or scenes you imagine would just be SOO cool and good to have. Personally I love early Sonics themes (topics?) around cycles of violence and abuse of power and ending them through compassion, (ex: calming Chaos or Amy’s plea to shadow) and resisting against authority,(those r what I got from those games, at least if I had to briefly summarize) so that’s what I would choose them to revolve around. Anyways hope ur day or night is going well ! 🦔

THANK YOU FOR THE ASK :0 i think about what the movies could have been all the fucking time. this will probably get long so it's under a readmore

i suppose as a disclaimer of some sort, the movies i want would adapt the games. so right off the bat im going to anex all the humans from these adaptations. so no two worlds theory and no maddie, tom, wade, whatever.

if the movies HAD to follow a similar scheme to what we got, where sonic and a human bond after getting isaeki'ed, i would either

1) have the human be maddie and get rid of tom completely. maddie has the motivation of wanting to help animals as a veternarian and her goal would be to want to move on from green hills to help more people, but pressure from people around her keeps her stagnant. sonic arriving would prove to maddie that she's capable of doing more and better, and that her opnion matters more than those around her. basically the core message of the movie would be not to let people hold you back, and to never be afraid to be yourself

2) have the human be a young child. look i know people have mixed thoughts on chris from sonic x but having a character more similar in age to sonic would make a lot more sense- the audience market would be able to connect a lot better with the human, and i think the themes of growing up and being different than what your parents want you to be could be nice. i think the main themes would be to never be afraid to stand up for what you believe in to show compassion to those around you, and to be who you're meant to be no matter what others think. HOWEVER.... the ideal scenario is that the movies adapt the games, so without further ado......

GAMES I WOULD ADAPT

okay the basic idea is that there would be five movies as like, phase one. they adapt the games people are most familiar with, in this order:

sonic 2

sonic cd

sonic 3

sa1

sa2

"hey, what about sonic 1?" to be honest there's nothing in sonic one that couldnt easily be established in conjunction to sonic 2 so i think it'd be best to just squish the two together. also, i KNOW if there was a whole movie dedicated to sonic one, there would be an insistence to give sonic some sort of backstory, which i frankly hate. he doesn't NEED a backstory- he saw an injustice, and decided to correct it. simple as that.

sonic is popular enough of a franchise that you can just jump into the story without knowing a whole lot about it. the general public is usually aware of sonic, eggman, and tails, so having the first movie focus on those three without worrying about a backstory for sonic and eggman could easily work.

i would have liked sonic cd to occur before sonic 2 but i think sonic 2 sets up a good foundation for the wackiness sonic will get into- right now we'll just introduce sonic's heroics, eggman's machines, and the power of the chaos emeralds. sonic cd can help further explore the power of the chaos emeralds, and will also set up the time travel of sonic 06

objectively you COULD cut out sonic cd and have amy's arc be implemented in sa1, considering her storyline there, but i really do think the time travel in cd is a good segway for sonic 06.

sonic 3 and sonic adventure 1 explores the lore of the chaos emerald and the echidna clan. i think it'd be fun to mention gerald robotnik in either movie, as well as the gizoids.

sa1 and sa2 would probably just be one to one adaptations because they're a complete movie all on their own, honestly. most changes would be cosmetic but the STORY would not change.

after these games, the ones i would probably adapt are

sonic heroes, sonic rush, sonic 06, sonic unleashed. going to be honest there's not REALLY good story oriented games after this other than sonic generations, and sonic frontiers. so unleashed would be my stopping point from now, although i imagine this series would span quite a few years, so by the time we'd get to a sonic frontiers adaption, the game would have been out for several, several years. anyway.

CORE THEMES...

The main five games i wanted to be adapted (Sonic 2, sonic cd, sonic 3, sonic adventure 1, and sonic adventure 2) have the most cohesive storyline together, so i would be fine if the movies stopped after those five. but anyway i like to think each story builds off of itself

sonic 2

Movie Summary: A fight with Eggman leads Sonic to crash into West Side Island. Sonic meets Tails, who fixes up his plane and offers him friendship and expresses interest in helping Sonic. Sonic, however, tries to shake him off, not interested in friends or anything that might slow him down. Tails sets out to defeat Eggman by himself to prove himself to Sonic, and they eventually learn to work together to stop Eggman from collecting all of the mythical Chaos emeralds. Sonic learns the power of friendship and takes Tails under his wing, and the two go on to chase after Eggman, who now has an interest in something called Little Planet...

Themes: the main aspect of this story is sonic learning to care about others and work with a team. sonic saves the day and plays up being a hero, but when he meets tails, he doesn't know what to do with him. sonic has compassion and wants to do him right, but just doesn't know WHAT to do. sonic working alongside someone after going after eggman alone for so long is VERY difficult for him, but tails eventually teaches him Friendship. i guess the main theme of this is being aware of how your actions affect others, and that doing things with friends is better than doing it alone.

sonic cd

Movie Summary: Sonic and Tails investigate Little Planet and meet Amy Rose, who predicted that she'd meet the love of her life on Little Planet. Sonic, Tails, and Amy investigate Eggman's wrong doings until Eggman unveils his latest invention- Metal Sonic! Metal Sonic captures Amy, and Amy offers Metal Sonic compassion and frienship, while Sonic and Tails collect the emeralds and time travel to restore the land. Eggman manages to sweep in at the last moment and steal all of the emeralds- however, Metal Sonic, who learned kindness from Amy, decides to betray Eggman and aids the heroes in getting the emeralds back. Metal Sonic is destroyed in the fight, but the day is saved; Amy stays behind while Sonic and Tails head to Angel Island so she can train and become as great as Sonic one day.

Theme: the main theme of this adaptation is compassion- amy shows compassion to metal sonic, which i think would lead to metal sonic betraying eggman to help the heroes. sonic realises that threats don't always HAVE to stay threats- that saving the day is great, but helping others on an individual level can mean the world.

okay after these two movies, the game adaptations are essentially one to one, so the summaries aren't very important

sonic 3

sonic and tails investigate angel island. the main theme here builds off of the compassion that amy teaches sonic in the previous one; that sometimes people are misguided, and when you help them from the wrong path, you just might make a really good friend. sonic befriends knuckles after their miscommunication is finally cleared up.

sonic adventure 1

the main themes of the game still stand. sonic's learned from amy and tails the power of friendship, hope, and compassion, and uses these same values to defeat perfect chaos, by offering it the same virtues amy and tails gave him, and what he gave to knuckles.

sonic adventure two

same as the original game, tbh. this adaptation changes very, very little. i suppose the other message is that even if you try your best, some people don't want to be saved, and you can't save everyone.

my idea for these games is the emphasis on friendship and the power you have together. tails teaches sonic friendship, amy teaches him compassion, and knuckles teaches him forgiveness, and he uses these tools to help him defeat perfect chaos. and individually, these characters learn bravery from sonic, which aid them in helping save the world during sa2.

Poorly written Sonic movie 3 pitch/outline pt. 3

Sonic is arrested, plot points introduced, introduction to Shadow, I am very tired, enjoy.

Exterior: Station Square

The Cyclone can be seen flying over the city. The sun has almost completely set at this point. Team Sonic finds the government building from the news and lands nearby. G.U.N agents are conversed around the building. Sonic and co. approach them.

Tails: excuse me? Sorry to intrude, but we wanted to know if you had any information on the break-in. We’ve worked together to take down eggman before, and we need to know if this could have been his doing.

The GUN agents look surprised to see them.

Agent 1: Sonic?

Sonic: Yeah, that's me. Don’t get too starstruck now.

Agent 2: Put your hands behind your back.

Sonic: Sorry, what?

Agent 2: You’re under arrest for suspicion of government conspiracy and robbery.

The three’s eyes widen in shock.

Tails: Hold on! We just got here! Why do you have the authority to arrest him?

Agent 1: Because we have video evidence that Sonic is the one who broke into this building.

Knuckles: That is preposterous! Sonic has been with us all day! Us and his family can attest to that.

Agent 2: Sorry kid, but we got orders to arrest Sonic as soon as possible. Luckily you guys saved us the trouble of finding him.

Knuckles: Outrageous!

Tails: Wait, you can’t do this!

Sonic: Yeah! I’m on your side!

Agent 1: GUN was formed to protect humanity against extraterrestrials like you. You are most certainly not on our side.

Sonic does as he’s told, in a state of shock. He is handcuffed and escorted to a nearby helicopter.

Tails: Sonic! What do we do?

Sonic: I don’t know! But call Tom before he finds out from these guys!

He is loaded onto the helicopter, the agents getting on with him. The helicopter takes off.

Tails: this can’t be happening.

Knuckles: No, fox, it most certainly can’t. Sonic is not skilled enough to break into anything undetected.

Tails: that's besides the point.

He looks down and takes out his phone, dialing Tom on facetime.

We cut to the Wachowski household. Tom and Randal are putting away chairs while the girls throw away any trash that's around. Tom’s phone suddenly goes off, and he puts down the chair he’s holding to answer.

Tom: Hey buddy, is everything going okay?

Tails: (laughing nervously) About that. I don’t know how to tell you this, but we got to Station Square… and… um..-

Knuckles: Tom! Sonic has been arrested!

Tom: What?! What do you mean he’s been arrested?

Tails: We landed and there were GUN agents everywhere! When we tried to talk to them they said that Sonic was under arrest for conspiracy and said they had evidence that he’s the one behind the break in!

Tom: That's impossible!

Knuckles: That is what we tried telling them, but they took him anyway! They put him on a flying machine and took off!

Tom: Okay, okay, you guys just stay right there. If anyone, and I mean anyone tries taking you guys in too, plead the 5th and say that I’m on my way to sort this all out.

Knuckles: Hurry, father. We have no time to waste.

Tom hangs up the phone, and runs to Maddie.

Maddie: Done with chairs already?

Tom: Sonic’s been arrested!

Maddie: Excuse me, what?

Tom: I don’t know what the heck is going on. Tails just said they have video or something and they think he’s the one that broke into that building.

Maddie: This doesn’t make any sense, he’s been with us all day!

Tom: I know. I’m going to go over there and try to sort this all out. There’s gotta be some sort of misunderstanding. You stay here. Knuckles would freak out if we left the emerald with no one keeping an eye on it.

Maddie: Alright, I’ll let Rachel know. You better be careful, babe.

Tom: Don’t worry, I’ll bring our boys home.

He runs off to his car, Rachel looking from the driveway where the trash cans are placed.

Maddie: (sighs) Here we go.

She walks over to her before the camera cuts away.

Exterior: Station square

We see the helicopter that took Sonic flying overhead. Inside, Sonic is sat between two agents.

Sonic: There’s gotta be some kind of mistake. I’m an honest Hedgehog, really!

Pilot over the intercom: We currently have the suspect. We are heading to headquarters now.

Sonic: You guys won’t even listen to what I have to say?

The agents are all completely silent.

Sonic: I’ll take that as a no.

He looks around the helicopter, seeing a large piece of metal by the door. He smirks as he thinks of a plan.

Sonic: I guess I don’t have a choice. If you guys won’t listen to reason, I’ll just have to get out my own way.

A brief fight scene ensues as Sonic breaks from the guards hold, gets out of his handcuffs, grabs the piece of metal, and opens the door. He falls with the metal under his feet, and we see a shot of him falling toward the ground. He lands and slides on the metal going down hill, sparks flying as he picks up speed. After a moment he ditches the makeshift board and starts running. A chase scene ensues as GUN bots chase after him, while a rendition of city escape plays.

Exterior: central station

It’s now dark outside. Tom pulls up in his truck and quickly gets out, running to Knuckles and Tails.

Tom: are you boys alright?

Tails: we’re okay, but we don’t know where they took Sonic.

Knuckles: the cowards fled without so much as a word to us.

Tom: That doesn’t make any sense. Why would they make an arrest without questioning you guys?

Tails: I don’t know! This wasn’t in any of those cop movies that Sonic showed me.

Tom: usually people are questioned so they can get the full story. Of course in green hills the most intense interrogation we had was with a kindergartener who stole a pencil. I have no idea why we were even there, the teacher was just really bored.

Tails: that means they must be pretty sure of what happened.

Tom: this must be some sort of misunderstanding. Let’s go find the agents and get this all sorted out.

A sudden blur of blue comes rushing in, and Sonic slides to a stop in front of them.

Sonic: Tom! You're here! You’ve gotta help me, I’m innocent I tell ya!

Tom: hey, relax bud. If they let you go then they probably know that this was just a big mistake.

Sonic: well, they didn’t technically let me go.

Tom takes a deep breath.

Tom: what do you mean they didn’t technically let you go?

Sonic: I mean they wouldn’t listen to anything I was saying! So I kind of, you know, broke out of the helicopter and led them on a police chase through the city.

Tom: oh, great, once again we’re fugitives of the law.

Knuckles: it appears so.

Tails: Tom, you’re a cop, can’t you say something to them?

Tom: Yeah, a small town cop who’s biggest achievement is that I caught a goose that was terrorizing the park! And I’ve already been wanted federally and have punched multiple government agents. I don’t even know how I kept my job. I have absolutely no say in any choice they make.

Sonic looks worried as he paces quickly.

Tom: Let's not panic. We’ll just have to lay low for a while.

A beeping noise emits from Tails gadget in hand. On the screen is a radar with a glowing red dot.

Tails: Um, Tom? My reader is picking up something coming towards us.

The red dot on the radar gets closer and closer.

Tom: Something big?

Tails: No. Something powerful.

The dot suddenly stops. Everyone looks at each other, then they look up to the roof of a building. Standing on top is a silhouette Shadow, holding a green, glowing gem. An instrumental rendition of “I am All of Me” plays.

Sonic: Who the heck is that?

Tom: Sonic, you don’t have any brothers or relatives, right?

Sonic: None that I know of.

Tom: Well, they definitely look like you.

Shadow leaps of the building, running down the side and stopping across from them. His full figure is now visible in the light.

Sonic: He's fast like me too!

Knuckles: I see little resemblance.

Tails: it kind of looks like him, if he dyed his hair and slicked his quills up.

Shadow stares at them, holding the chaos emerald up.

Tom: Isn’t that one of the emeralds?

Tails: It is!

Shadow smirks at them.

Shadow: It all starts with this. A jewel containing the ultimate power.

Sonic: Hey, uh, stranger. You wouldn’t happen to be working with a mad scientist with a huge mustache, would you?

Shadow continues staring at them.

Sonic: Hello? Can you hear me?

Shadow scoffs in annoyance.

Knuckles: I believe he’s ignoring you.

Sonic: Say something!

Sonic starts running towards him as Tom tries to stop him.

We cut to a slow motion scene where Sonic jumps into a spindash. As he does this, a glow of green can be seen in front of him. In a flash of light, Shadow disappears just as sonic reaches the spot he was standing. The slow motion ends and Sonic stumbles in surprise.

Sonic: Wha- where?

They all look around, then turn to look at the building behind them. Shadow is standing at the top.

Knuckles: Impressive speed.

Tom: There’s no way Sonic couldn’t catch up to him! What was that?

Tails: I don’t think that was speed. I think he somehow used the emerald to teleport!

Shadow: Unfortunately, I don’t have time for games. My master awaits.

Again, he holds up the emerald.

This time, Sonic runs at him before he commands the emerald to teleport him, going into a spin dash before knocking the emerald out of his hand.

Shadow grunts before gaining his composure. As Sonic starts running to the emerald, he is surprised when the loud sound of Shadows shoes picks up. Hesitating to turn around, Shadow swiftly speeds past him.

When he grabs the emerald, Knuckles has already climbed up to where they’re at. He tries punching the emerald out of his grasp, but Shadow is able to teleport behind him. A fight scene ensues, with Tails joining, attempting to hit him with a laser gun. When all efforts fail, they return to the ground.

Knuckles: He is a much more formidable opponent than the last hedgehog I faced.

Sonic: You mean me?

Knuckles: Yes.

The camera cuts back to Shadow, still on top of the building. Eggman's theme starts playing as the egg mobile comes into frame. Robotnik and Stone are both sitting inside.

Robotnik laughs: guess who’s back? And I see you’ve already met my new bestie, AKA the ultimate lifeform. Shadow, this is my arch nemesis, my ex bestie, and the little cub they keep around. Oh, and how could I forget, the pastry king himself!

Team Sonic all looks confused for a moment.

Sonic: eggman? You look.. um… different?

Knuckles: your current state is almost unrecognizable.

Robotnik groans in annoyance: Oh please, you try staying underground without so much as a treadmill to keep up your physique and see how it affects your body!

Tom nods in some semblance of understanding.

Stone: don’t listen to them, doctor, you're just as magnificent now as you were when I first saw you.

Robotnik again groans: thank you, Stone, but I already know that!

Sonic: (directed at Shadow) So, you are working for professor mustache. I don’t know what he’s told you, but he’s lying.

Knuckles: it is true! He took advantage of my alliship and used me! Do not be deceived!

Robotnik: oh, but I’ve only told him the truth! Crossed my heart, hoped to die, yada yada.

Shadow: master, we have no time for these foolish games.

Robotnik looks frustrated, but notices the sound of sirens approaching.

Robotnik: as much as it pains me, you're right. I would love to destroy you all right here and now, but my plans are much bigger than your pathetic little lives.

Shadow holds the chaos emerald to the sky, and the green glow emanates again.

Robotnik: latter suckers!

His laughter can be heard echoing as they are teleported away, leaving team Sonic alone in the middle of the street.

Just as they let their guard down, GUN vehicles turn the corner and surround them.

Sonic: not again!

Tails: guys, I don’t know if we can fight our way out of this one!

Knuckles: we are at a disadvantage. If they launch a counterattack Tom will not be able to defend himself.

Tom: Sorry, I guess I left my bulletproof vest at home.

GUN soldier through a megaphone: hand over the fugitive, or we will use force to capture him.

Tom: Sonic, you should run.

Sonic: Tom, no. I’m not just going to run away and let you get hurt.

Knuckles: So we fight!

Sonic: No. Not this time.

Sonic puts his hands up and slowly walks towards them.

Tails: Sonic, wait!

GUN soldier: do not move, fox! You three will not be taken in, but only if you willingly allow Sonic to come to us.

Tails frowns, but steps back.

Sonic: It's alright, buddy. I’m going to be just fine. Besides, I’m sure you're not going to just sit around at home without itching for a prison break.

He winks at him, then walks the rest of the way to the soldiers. They order him to put his hands behind his back, this time using multiple pairs of handcuffs. For good measure, they put him in a glowing blue box and hall him into the back of a van.

He looks at Tom one last time before the doors shut and the truck. The truck drives away, and one soldier approaches Tom.

Tom: Do you mind telling me what is going on here? Sonic has been with me the entire day, there’s no possible way he could have done this!

GUN Soldier: I suppose there's some explaining that needs to be done.

The soldier removes his helmet, and is revealed to be Officer Walters.

Tom: You again? How many times are you going to take in Sonic before you realize he's not a threat.

Walters: Oh, we’re perfectly aware of that.

Tom: What? Then what is the point of all this?

Walters: The public has already been made aware of Sonic and his little friends fiascos. If word got out that even more aliens have infiltrated earth, there would be mass panic. We can’t keep the security footage away from the press without raising questions, so the best course of action agreed upon was to arrest Sonic so the public can have peace of mind.

Tom: That’s insane! You already know Sonic is innocent and you’re taking him in anyway, all because you're too afraid to admit that there’s more than one alien hedgehog?

Walters: Try to understand where we’re coming from. You should be glad that we’re not taking in the rest of you. As long as you stay quiet, we assure you Sonic’s wellbeing, as well as the rest of your family.

Tails: But what about Shadow?

Walters' eyes grow wide.

Walters: What did you just say?

Tails: Sha-

Tails hesitates. The look on Walter’s face tells him that they already know too much.

Tails: I mean, the other hedgehog we saw had black fur, so Sonic nicknamed him Shadow.

Walters appears to relax.

Walters: Well, we assure you that we’re already investigating that. Once we find the real culprit, Sonic can go home. He’ll have to stay hidden, of course, the public needs to think that he's still in prison.

Knuckles: Sonic has already spent 10 years hiding! He is finally free to interact with everyone, make new friends and allies, and you are just going to take that away from him?

Walters: This is the only way. Trust me on that.

Tom: So, what now? We just go home and wait for you all to get off your lazy a-

Tails cuts him off.

Tails: Please, just find that other hedgehog.

Walters glares at Tails.

Walters: We will. Now, you all just run along now, there's no need to make a scene.

Tom: Says the general who brought out swat vans to arrest an alien.

Walters gives them one last glare before returning to his van. He gets in the passenger's side and drives off.

Tails: He’s hiding something. Did you see his face when I said “Shadow”?

Knuckles: Very suspicious indeed. Perhaps they know more than they let on.

Tails: Something tells me Shadow is more than just some random alien. But why would they know about him already?

Tom: Look, either way, we should get home.

Tails: That's it? We can’t just let them do this!

Tom: I know, Tails, but right now we can’t do anything. We should make a game plan when we get home.

Tails looks disappointed, but he can’t argue.

Tails: We’ll meet you there. Or do you want a ride in the Cyclone?

Tom: Tempting, but I’ve already lost pretty much every car I’ve owned in the last 2 years, I don’t want to lose another one.

Knuckles: Make haste, Tom.

Tom: Will do.

He runs to his car while Tails and Knuckles get in the Cyclone. They take off just as Tom starts up the car. We get a zoom out of station square as the main theme plays.

One again on the cusp of finally attempting a fic, and once again its crack taken seriously

You know all those fics where 2012!Mikey shows up in Riseverse and the brothers instantly adopt him and he doesnt want to go home? Yeah its that but from the 2012 gangs perspective, as they fight the Rise cast in stages (they win, they "get Mikey back"). Leo and Donnie are always Extra™️ so its set up like a videogame, and the boss battle is Splinter Rat Jitsu. Theres a fog machine so all 2012 can see of Casey Jr. is the glowing eyes in his mask. April introduces herself by coming up behind 12!Raph and hitting him so hard he flies. Donnie's "stage" is Albertoland and he's clearly unhinged the entire time. Raph doesnt really wanna fight so its essentially him just pushing 2012 back with little effort. Leo and Mikey Dr. Delicate Touch are a duo. Cassandra comes out of the shadows with both her masks on and gives 2012 a run for their money. At the end 2012 run through the last door, expecting to see 12!Mikey tied up, but he's just chilling with Draxum on the couch eating chips and salsa

EDIT: i did it Ao3 and FFnet

another possible crossover scene that has absolutely nothing to do with anything (but i laughed so im sharing)

rise! Leo: Your Casey and Donnie don't like each other? Oh this is really funny.

2012! Leo: what... do you mean?

rise! Leo, snickering: well you see, in my world Donnie and Casey are kinda married...

2012! Everyone: WHAT?!

rise! Leo: yeah, so first off we're in Florida-

2012! Raph: why were you in Florida?!

rise! Leo: and we got our tails handed to us pretty bad. Raph busted his hand up, April fractured a couple ribs, Donnie had a concussion, Cassie messed up her knee, yadda yadda. So, we're on some heavy duty painkillers, and Mikey-

rise! Leo: actually I think i have the wedding on video actually. *pulls out phone*

rise! Leo: ahhh no it must be on Mikey's phone. This video was the same night though!

Video!Leo: so, tell me Don-Don, how would you rate your whole Florida experience?

Video!Donnie, who clearly is not 100% coherent: two outta ten. Do not reccomend.

Video!Leo: but you still give it a two?

Video!Donnie: the humidity and heat are pretty nice but that's the only good thing about this state.

rise! Leo: i'll just fast forward to the relevant part.

Video!Mikey: Donnie! You're the smart one-

Video!Donnie, off screen: right you are!

Video!Mikey: PLEASE tell Casey that people who go through Vegas' drive through wedding chapels are real and actual marriages!

Video!Donnie: of course Vegas weddings are real!

Video!Mikey: aha!

Video!Donnie: its every other drive thru wedding chapel who's marriages are a sham.

Video!Casey, to Mikey: aha!

Video!April: im pretty sure they're also legal-

Video!Donnie: no they arent!

Video!Casey: You heard Mikey, Purple's the smart one, so he must be right! Which makes me right!

Video!Raph: but your stance was on Vegas weddings-

Video!Leo, behind the camera: if you two are so sure about this why don't you go test it out? Theres a drive through chapel 45 minutes awayyyy

Video!Casey: no thats too far. You couldn't pay me to sit in a van with all five of you for that long.

Video!Leo: what if I paid you both $50?

Video!Donnie: done! CASSANDRA! What is your middle name I need to propose properly

Every time i play around with a 2012 x 2018 crossover set in 2018 verse i get secondhand self conscious and dial back the affection between 2018's extended cast. But you know what? No. Let 2012 and every other verse get uncomfortable with being in a environment filled with so much undisputed love

2018 boys cuddle on the couch. One of the boys will plop their head in 18!April's lap. Casey Jr. will slide up under 18!Leo's arm and doze off while leaning into his chest. Draxum comes over for lunch every Saturday and 18!Mikey excitedly calls him "Dad" while bouncing around him the first hour he's there. 18!Splinter kisses his sons goodnight if he sees them on his way to bed, including alternate universe counterpart sons. The Hamatos are huggers and every time 18!April or Sunita or Cassandra drop by, and on the rare occasion Sr. Hueso or Big Mama deliver something, they get a big hello hug. Cassandra greets Casey Jr. with hugs and dramatic cheek kisses and Casey Jr. has the biggest smile on his face the whole time. 18!Raph's just constantly beaming affection. 18!Leo will drape himself off everyone and everything. "I love you"s are said in almost every goodbye. No one is ashamed to admit they crawl into each others' beds at night after bad dreams or scary movies, often just telling a 2012 thats looking for them to jusy come to that room that morning because theyre comfy and dont want to move. 18!April regularly wears 18!Donnie's sweatshirts and trades off with him throughout the day (she likes baggy sweatshirts, Donnie likes warm sweatshirts), even after 12!Donnie and the teasing his brothers not-so-quietly do makes it a little uncomfortable, because this is something small that makes the other happy and a couple stares is hardly a price. 18!Mikey actively does gestures of affection (ex. making someone's favorite meal, making a painting, playing with April's hair, etc). 18!Donnie will walk away from a project if someone expressly states they wanna spend time with him (videogames are a whole different story). Sitting on top of each other because the booths at Run of the Mill cant hold 12+ people (Leo's sideways in Donnie's lap with his arms around his neck, Mikey is sitting on top of the booth with April sitting in front of him between his legs and his plate balanced on her head, Cassandra is propped up on Raph's shell and Casey Jr. is on his knee, Sunita has one leg on the seat and the other in April's lap) while 2012 try to pretend they arent uncomfortable with being squished together in a row. Todd shows up being Todd and 2018 actively and enthusiastically join in his sappy friendship things. The boys using their ten thousand dad nicknames for 18!Splinter. 18!Mikey running around to get goodnight hugs and kisses

18. "Can I hug you?"

Sonic and Maddie

(Ps. I really liked your last story, it was super wholesome)

"Can I hug you?"

Sonic had been lying in bed, the feather- the last thing he had of Longclaw- lifted in his paw in front of him so he could analyze it for the millionth time since he came to Earth and lost her. And for the zillionth time, he wished he had jumped in that portal in time to save her. But there was nothing he could do about it now.

It had been eleven years today since it happened, and still, it felt like a fresh wound that wouldn't trickle out in time it just opened and got deeper, and- he felt as if he would cry again, his movement wrinkled a few of his drawings of him and his bird mom. He wiped his eyes with the back of his arm, great now he's going to get them all wet.

“Can I hug you?” Maddie repeated, and Sonic was suddenly pulled back to Earth, his favorite planet, where his new mom with dark black hair and brown eyes that shone like stars had her arms outstretched in front of her.

Slowly, Sonic scooted over to her and let her wrap her arms around him, squeezing his small body into hers.

"It hurts."

"I know."

"I want this feeling to go away."

"I know." And she did, as Maddie had told Sonic a few minutes before, she had lost her father, when she was young too.

And she did. As Maddie had told him a few seconds before, she had lost her dad at an early age too. She knew what it was like growing up without a parent. She had learned very quickly that a father was heavy shoes to fill. But it got easier with the support of others, and that's what she was trying to teach to her son.

And Sonic let out a sigh of relief and exhaustion. Because there wasn’t an echidna tribe looking for him. He was on Earth now. He had a new family. And he was going to be okay.
