Chapter 1 - Running To Royal Woods

Watched the Sonic Movie recently, I enjoyed it, I've been watching a lot of Sonic content.

*****

The screen is pitch black. A voice came out from the darkness.

A/N: Lines in Full Italics will be used for Narration to the readers/viewers.

???: So, I know what you're thinking. How are we going to start this amazing story? Well, let's start from the beginning as any good story should.

The screen then reveals a picturesque mountain paradise with green fields and beautiful blue lakes. It features large waterfall vistas, palm trees, rotating flowers, flora in various colors, and totem poles of unknown origin. Perhaps most distinctively, the soil is checkered brown, and most of the local plant life appears to have unfamiliar geometric appearances to it.

???: This is the island where I'm from. It had everything. Sandy beaches, cascading waterfalls, public access to loop-de-loops. And I never had to catch a school bus because I could run across the entire island in less than two seconds.

A young-looking blue hedgehog can be seen running across the terrain at massive speeds.

???: Also, there was no school. I know, pretty sweet island, right?

The young hedgehog runs across a ramp and shoots up into the air.

Young Hedgehog: Yeah!

The young hedgehog lands back on the ground and continues zipping through his island.

???: I was born with extraordinary powers and was told to keep them secret. And like any kid, I did the exact opposite.

The young hedgehog runs up some bridges to a small house. He curls into a ball, rolls into the house, jumps up, and playfully bumps an anthropomorphic owl She possesses purple-brown feathers on most of her body, while her face is covered in white feathers, with light brown feathers extending from her nose ridge and over her eyes, forming eyebrows. She also possesses blue eyes and a short and curved black beak.

Additionally, she has two light brown and black-striped feathers coming out from behind her ear-tufts that are reminiscent of a great horned owl, and large mottled brown wings. She also has small dexterous digits on her wrist joints, which are separate from her primary feathers, not unlike the forelimbs of a small, feathered dinosaur.

For attire, the owl wears golden armor with notable details engraved on it that covers the front of her torso and is held in place by a collar around her neck and brown straps on her lower abdomen.

While she is sleeping, causing her to wake up.

???: That's Longclaw. She took care of me.

The young hedgehog lands on the ground, now out of ball form, and he is laughing happily.

???: She was basically Obi-Wan Kenobi. If Obi-Wan Kenobi had a beak and ate mice.

"Longclaw": Sonic, someone could have seen you.

"Sonic": No one saw me. I'm too fast! And, I wanted to bring you this.

Sonic pulls out a flower he picked from the outside, which makes Longclaw happy.

Longclaw notices something in the trees. She then shuts the door and grabs Sonic to protect him.

Longclaw: Get down!

The unseen attackers begin bombarding the house with spears and they hit almost every corner of Longclaw's house, with a spear breaking the window, barely missing Longclaw, and passing through Sonic's flower, pinning it to the wood floor.

'Sonic': Turns out with great power, comes great power-hungry bad guys. And I led them right to us.

Longclaw and Sonic escape through the back window as the echidnas continue firing arrows at them. Eventually, an arrow is thrown and it strikes the owl guardian, knocking her and Sonic out of the sky and sending them plummeting to the ground. Longclaw quickly gets up and puts a very concerned Sonic on his feet and he looks up at her.

Longclaw: Listen carefully, Sonic. You have a power unlike anything I have ever seen. And that means someone will always want it. The only way to stay safe is to stay hidden.

Longclaw takes a ring from her satchel and tosses it, which opens a portal to another location. The owl guardian picks up when Sonic enters through it, but this time a spear hits Longclaw right in the spine before the portal could close. Longclaw fell to the ground in pain.

Longclaw: (pants) *Huff. Huff. Huff...* Don't worry, Sonic, I'll be fine... Listen carefully, Sonic. You have a power unlike anything I have ever seen. And that means someone will always want it. The only way to stay safe is to stay hidden.

Longclaw: (Hands Sonic her satchel of Rings) These Rings will be your most important possession. If you're ever discovered, and I am not with you, use one. You must never stop running. Understand?

Sonic nodded, then the owl guardian pulled the spear out of her back, picked up The blue hedgehog, and continued to run.

Longclaw: Come now, we must find a good hiding place.

Longclaw limps deep into the darkness of the woods and vanish into the night.

*****

Timeskip...

Behind a welcome sign to Royal Woods, which also said, "Leaving Beaverton".

There was a teen boy installing some kind of device onto the back of the sign. He was a fairly young teen most likely 14, average build with short white hair, with a large tuft of his hair sticking upwards on his left side and two strands sticking up on his right. He has an overbite, with a prominent chipped front tooth, and freckles on his cheeks.

His attire consisted of an open orange hoodie with double black stripes on the arms and chest, under which he wore a black short-sleeved shirt with an Ace of Spades logo outlined in orange with an A in the center, black jeans, white, orange, and black sneakers with orange laces. The boy was on the phone with someone.

Albino Boy: Yeah, Clyde, I can't make it to the Arcade Game. Looks like you'll need to have Rusty sub in for me. Also, Make sure to check Chandler for any cheats written down on his person. Give Hank & Hawk the chocolate bars and have them check him, those two will do anything as long as they get chocolate.

"Clyde": (through the phone) Got it! By the way, Lincoln, what's Lisa having you do this time?

"Lincoln": She's being paid by the police to set up a Speed Trap for them, I'm getting 40% of the money if I set it up. After a while, Lori will come and pick me up to take me home. It's my turn to take out the trash.

Clyde: Don't you have to call Ronnie Anne because of that couple's fight you two had?

Lincoln: We were never a couple!

Lincoln hung up on Clyde and rolled his eyes and finished putting the battery into the device and it turned on with a musical arrangement of beeps and boops.

Lincoln: There! Now I just need to wait for a car to pass by and I'll be free to call Lori to come get me. Just need a car to drive by... During the middle of work hours... In the middle of Summer Break... Where everyone that was traveling has already made it to where they want to go... I'm gonna be here for hours...

1 Hour Later...

The albino boy could be seen fiddling with the electric drill he used, before he shook his hand a little from holding the electric drill for too long.

Another Hour Later...

Lincoln starts messing around after boredom kicks in, acting like he's actually trying to catch speeding drivers with a radar gun, only to have the side of his face smacked against the electric drill.

Yet Another Hour Later...

The albino boy could be seen missing with some games on his phone, up until the battery died and he was left with no way to call anyone now. A muttering of "Dang it" left his lips.

Another Long Boring Hour Later So Long That The Previous Timeskip Announcer Left To Take A Break As His Work-Study Did It For Him...

Lincoln was now just laying on the ground taking a nap until the radar gun beeped.

Lincoln: (snorts) Huh?

The albino boy sat up to see the Speed Trap was measuring the speed of a turtle crossing the street. The device beeps and shows the target speed of the turtle is going 001 MPH.

Lincoln: Hey, Why did the turtle cross the road? To get to the Shell Station.

The turtle doesn't take much notice as it continues strolling along the road.

Lincoln: I thought it was funny. Sorry. I've been to one too many of my sister's comedy routines.

As the turtle crossed the street, the albino boy groaned loudly. No pun intended. As Lincoln lays back, a speeding speck of light passes by and the speed trap beeps, indicating that the target speed is now going at 296 MPH.

Lincoln: What?

The albino boy looked around, behind him an older looking blue hedgehog was peeking over a rock and looking at the Speed Trap as well. Lincoln resets it and walks around the sign to see if he had just missed something. Only to see nothing, he looked away from the road for a second and the blue speck of light speeds by again, setting off the Speed Trap again. Lincoln looked at the Speed Trap and saw it showing him the target speed of 300 this time.

While Lincoln scratched his head in confusion while the blue blur behind him silently cheered, walks along the road, pondering the situation. Lincoln then walked over to the grass, noticing something blue. He kneels down, picks it up and inspects it, it was a quill-like one found on hedgehogs, only longer than his index finger and bright blue. Having had enough of this strange situation, Lincoln walked back to the sign together with his things and walked home.

Down the road, a van was driving down. The van has a two-tone green and white color scheme with two doors in the side, one of which has a broken lock and a window roller. It has four rows of seating; one with the drivers' seat and adjacent passenger seat and three with seats for other passengers. The license plate reads "LLLD". On the front of the van is the word "FUNG", which may be the name of the van's manufacturer. Likewise, the rear door has a badge with the initials "FMC".

And most importantly, the driver was talking on her phone, until hitting a small bump which caused her to drop her phone. As she took her eyes off the road to grab it, she came closer and closer to Lincoln, until she looked up, screamed, and hit the brakes. Lincoln heard the sound of brakes screeching.

Lincoln: AAAAHHH!!!

Lincoln attempted to jump out of the way, but it seemed too little too late. Until the blue speck of light speeds by once again, pushing Lincoln out of the way of certain death. As the van came to a screeching halt, a young woman stepped out of the van as Lincoln stood back up.

The young woman was about 20 years old. She had long blonde hair in a ponytail, blue eyeshadow, pearl earrings. She was tall and had a beautiful, curvaceous figure. She was wearing a black shirt with a dark blue bomber jacket, a black armband on her right arm, blue jeans and blue slip-on shoes.

Young Woman: Oh my god, Lincoln! Are you alright!

Lincoln: Yes, I'm fine Lori.

"Lori": What were you doing on the road!?

Lincoln: (sees Lori's cellphone with a call on) I think the better question is, why were you taking a phone call while driving?

Lori: Uuuuuuuhhhhhh.... I'll buy you a milkshake at Burpin' Burger for your silence.

Lincoln: Add some fries and chicken nuggets and you have a deal.

Lincoln gathers his things and he and Lori drive off. Then the blue hedgehog stopped to watch the two leave. It was an older version of Sonic.

Sonic stops by the sign and sighs in relief, the Speed Trap had a new reading, 999 MPH before shorting out and catching fire.

Sonic speeds through the woods and into his new home in the trunk of a tree and he's having a real blast, mimicking a singer, doing calisthenics, playing guitar, and jumping rope)

Sonic (narrating): So what did you expect?

The blue hedgehog begins winging on a tire swing.

Sonic (narrating): A dirty little hedgehog eating berries and struggling to survive? Think again.

The blue hedgehog then reads comic books of The Flash, reading them so fast that he finishes them within a few seconds.

Sonic (narrating): Because I am living my best life on Earth. I've got a library,

Sonic begins running inside a dryer like a hamster on a wheel.

Sonic (narrating): a home gym.

The blue hedgehog then puts on a ninja headband and brandishes two pairs of nunchucks.

Sonic (narrating): and a state-of-the-art security system.

Sonic waves the nunchucks around until he hits himself. He then plays ping-pong and has fun until Longclaw's Ring satchel falls to the ground and several Rings, as well as a piece of paper spill out.

Sonic: Oh, no!

The blue hedgehog gathers the Rings and puts them back and then takes a look at the paper, which is a map of planets.

Sonic (narrating): And if I'm ever discovered, I'll follow Longclaw's instructions and use my Rings to escape to a new planet.

Sonic holds up a ring to the map.

Sonic (narrating): A nice, safe world filled only with mushrooms.

Sonic tosses the ring and it opens up a portal to the Mushroom Planet, filled with literally nothing but mushrooms.

Sonic (narrating): Gross, smelly mushrooms.

Sonic now looks annoyed and upset.

Sonic: I hate mushrooms.

The blue hedgehog then speeds around the woods once more until he comes across another cave, much smaller. Inside was Longclaw, but she was in a chair and her legs seemed to just dangle below her with everything within her arms... Wings... Limbs reach. Sonic took a box from his bag, it was full of mice, Longclaw took the box and began eating.

Longclaw: Thank you Sonic.

Sonic: I'll see if I can't find more for you to eat tomorrow.

Longclaw: You don't need to worry about me.

Sonic: You're right I don't, but you can't stop me from doing it anyway.

Longclaw: (chuckles) No. No, I can't.

Sonic (narrating): After that spear to her back Longclaw wasn't walking right for a while, and by the time we figured out the medicines of this world, she lost all function in her legs. So she's stuck here if I get discovered. But... she also doesn't know that I go out into the town every so often. Everyday. All the time.

The blue hedgehog leaves Longclaw's cave a ledge overlooking Royal Woods and looks out at the beautiful landscape.

Sonic (narrating): But let's not worry about all that! This is Royal Woods, the greatest place on Earth.

Sonic speeds off through the town.

Sonic (narrating): These are my people, and, dare I say, I am their loveable space creature.

The blue hedgehog stands on top of a building, watching the town below him with a grin on his face.

Sonic (narrating): So what if they don't know I exist? But my favorite out of all these humans is the Noisy Family!

The screen pans over to Lincoln and Lori coming out of the Burpin' Burger with chocolate milkshakes and a bag of fries and nuggets.

Sonic (narrating): First up is The Comic Lord! Ruler of all comics and video game high scores, helper to the town, and an utterly selfless person, he's gotten the worse end of most situations with little good in return, he even showed me about talking to you guys! His oldest sister, The Generalness is next! She rules over the Noisy Family with an iron fist, opposed in power by the Comic Lord, she's the then most from what I've seen.

The blue hedgehog followed the two to a two-story house. The exterior of the house is painted white, with a black-colored roof, a porch on the front side, a chimney running up the left side of the house, and a garage on the right side. The walls of the basement are made of red bricks.

The two entered the house and Sonic peeked through the window, hiding in a bush, where he saw another young woman. She was as tall as Lori and seemed about 19, a year younger than Lori, with long platinum hair and a beautiful, hourglass figure. She wore white shade glasses on her head, red stud earrings, and a pearl bracelet around her right wrist. And was wearing a seafoam green top, a bright green skirt over dark green shorts, and green heel shoes.

Lincoln: Hey Leni.

Leni: Hey, Lincy! Have you seen the remote?

Lincoln: DId you check under the couch?

Sonic (narrating): That's the Fashion Gorilla, she has all fashion sense of a professional with-

Leni lifts the couch above her head before picking up the remote.

Sonic (narrating): The strength of a gorilla. She's not the brightest but she is the cheeriest of them all.

The blue hedgehog hears a noise from the garage, Sonic sneaks around to the garage where another young woman was tall as Leni and about a year younger at 18. She has brown hair in a sharp pixie cut with the sides and back of the head shaved, freckles, purple eyeshadow, and wearing paperclip earrings. The young woman has a pear-shaped curvaceous figure and was very bottom-heavy. She was wearing a dark purple short sleeve puffer jacket over a purple tattered shirt with a skull on it, black studded armbands, two white belts, slim black sweatpants, and purple boots with white sharp-edge designs. She was strumming a guitar that had "Luna Loud" written on it.

Luna: Let's see if this new amp is all it's cracked up to be! Or if it's gonna bust like the last one!

Sonic (narrating): The Loudest Rockstar, she's the noisiest out of all of them. She loves all things rock n roll, And she still holds the title of loudest in the house. I once heard her music from the edge of town!

Sonic then turned to the backyard on a wood platform, a young woman was telling jokes with a prop case next to her with "Luan Loud" on the side, she was telling jokes to teens that were her friends. "Luan" was about a year younger than Luna at 17, tall but a bit shorter than Lori, her usual brown hairstyle in a ponytail with some curls, same buck teeth but no braces. Luan was sporting an hourglass figure but was more chest-heavy. She was wearing a white baggy sweater with a pink squirting flower on the left side of the chest, a yellow checkered skirt, thigh-length yellow striped socks, and brown shoes.

Luan: What kind of concert only costs 45 cents? A 50 Cent concert featuring Nickelback.

Sonic (narrating): The Crazy Prankster. She's pulled pranks on every person in the entire town, except me of course, I've never fallen for a single one of the pranks. She knows there is only one person that she hasn't pranked so she's sorta on to me but not really. The crazy part comes from April 1st, she gets super nuts on that day.

???: Boston Crap Sneak Attack!!

The blue hedgehog then heard a crash from inside, Sonic looked inside to see Lincoln trapping a teen girl in a Kneebar Arm Triangle hold.

Lincoln: Lynn, the point of a sneak attack is to be fast and quiet, you are neither of those.

"Lynn": I'm fast!

Luan: (outside) Ha!

Lynn: Not that way, Luan!

Lynn was almost the same height as Lincoln but a millimeter shorter than him, about 16 years old. She has slightly long brown hair, freckles, and a graceful and highly athletic physique. She was wearing a red and black jock varsity jacket with a number one on the right side of the chest area, black shorts with red side stripes and black number ones on the side stripes, black knee socks with red stripes and black cleats.

Sonic (narrating): The Sports Freak. She's crazy competitive and at times violent, a master of all sports that are physically based, but not the best at mental sports, or virtual sports.

Lynn and Lincoln get up off the floor and dust off.

Lynn: Not bad, Linc.

Lincoln: It's pretty easy when you come at me screaming. Unlike Lucy, also, hey Luce.

Lynn raised an eyebrow in confusion before turning around where a girl was standing behind her silently. "Lucy" has long, sharp black hair still covering her eyes, almost as tall as Lincoln and Lynn but a bit short and has a slender figure. Lucy was wearing a long black dress with dark gray striped sleeves and tattered sleeves, dark gray striped leggings and black boots.

Lynn: AAAAHHHH!!!

Sonic (narrating): The Dark One. I can never really tell when she pops up, she walks the shadows and pops up out of nowhere like a ninja. I can't tell much about her, she kinda just disappears and reappears out of nowhere like a ghost.

Lynn: Stop doing that!!

Lucy: (behind Lynn) Do what?

Lynn: AAAHHH!!!

The blue blur heard a noise from the backyard again, he slipped back there once more to see two little girls fighting, both at the same short height and had a missing gap between their teeth.

First Girl: Say you're sorry to the frogs, Lola!

"Lola": You first for ruining my tea party, Lana!

"Lana" had long blonde hair in a ponytail and had a red cap. She was also wearing a white t-shirt with blue short sleeves, a brown utility belt, sporting black, white, and dark blue army cargo pants, and gray and blue striped shoes.

Lola has long flowing blonde hair, pink eyeshadow. She wears a pink gold crown with pink jewels and a pearl necklace. She was wearing a sparkling pink shirt under a dark pink sash with a black outline, a dark pink skirt, and sparkling pink heel shoes.

Sonic (narrating): Those to the Wild Girl and the Self-Proclaimed Princess, twins that are day and night to each other. Wild Girl is all about reptiles, mudpies, and mufflers. She's the Noisy Family's resident fixer-upper, she's always ready to lend a hand, and the dirtier the job, the better! And SPP (Self-Proclaimed Princess)? This princess powerhouse's interests include glitter, photoshoots, and her own beautiful, beautiful face. Whatever she wants, she gets. She's the family gossip and can't resist the chance to tattle on the others, acting as the eyes and ears of the house.

Sonic heard an explosion in the front yard. Zooming over he saw two more very young girls. A 6-year-old girl and 4 year old. The older of the two was dusting herself off while the other played with toys.

The Child: Lisa's toys go boom!

"Lisa": I am aware my invention exploded, youngest sibling Lily.

"Lily": Lisa's toys always go boom.

Lisa was a short girl with short, messy brown hair and glasses. She was wearing a dark green swing lab coat with three white horizontal stripes on both sides of the coat, and slim black pants attached to her black boots with green highlights..

Lily was a small girl with short blonde hair and a prominent tooth. wears a white T-shirt, lavender shorts, and white shoes.

Sonic (narrating): The Mad Scientist and the Child. The Mad Scientist is more a bomb maker than an inventor, I've yet to see one of her inventions not blow up, and it's a lucky day if they're small blasts. The Child is just what she is, a child, she manages to bring a smile to everyone's face, and she remains the whole family's, favorite little lady!

(Nighttime)

The Loud siblings could be seen watching a movie on the couch.

Sonic (narrating): Movie night is my favorite.

Sonic slowly rises from behind the window and has his fingers crossed and his eyes closed.

Sonic: Please, please, please, please.

Sonic opens one eye and sees the movie's title, Speed, appear on the television.

Sonic: Yes! Keanu! You are a national treasure.

Jack on TV (Keanu Reeves): When I find you--

Howard Payne on TV (Dennis Hopper): Pop quiz, hotshot. There's a bomb on the bus.

Sonic: "Pop quiz, hotshot." (Makes a chef's kiss gesture) It's a classic line.

Sonic (narrating): Basically, we're like a family. Even though we haven't met yet.

Sonic suddenly shifted to sitting on a chair and couch left behind by Luan's show.

Sonic: (As a psychiatrist, speaking in a German accent, wearing glasses, and holding a clipboard and pencil, sitting in the chair) You don't zink your prolonged isolation is making you a bit crazy, perhaps?

Sonic: (Playing the role of a patient lying on the couch) Crazy? Me? No way, Doc. You got me all wrong.

Sonic: (Plays the role of the psychiatrist again) And despite all these so-called friends of yours, (Takes off the glasses) deep down,

Sonic: (In a normal voice) you're still rather lonely?

As Sonic leaves for the night, he takes one last look through the window and smiles a little from seeing the Louds enjoy their movie.

Sonic: (to himself) Perhaps afraid you'll be alone forever?

Sonic frowns and speeds off into the night like he did so many times before, a bit of blue lightning coming off him and causing some street lights to shut off for a moment.

To Be Continued...

That's all for now, tell me what you think! I'd love to get your opinions and ideas for this story! Bye for now!
