HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Setting; Sonic - Modern twist - and with crossover characters in it (mostly background or minor characters, although some are main characters); Example; Mario characters are in this

OC; Flora - OC that has been used in this book before

Death; Murdered During A Robbery Happening At Her Home/Work

Reincarnated As; Fem!Mobian!Metal Sonic - AKA, she is not a robot in this version although she still looks similar to how Metal Sonic does.

Pairings; Love triangles, background relationships, so many relationships that I am not going to list them all just yet as I want them to be a surprise

Warnings for this story - there will be character deaths, graphic deaths, murderers, killings, and such. Abuse, manipulation, adults in relationships with minors, implied sexual relationships, affairs, cheating, graphic violence, suicide and many other sensitive issues will be in this story. This is going to be a dark story and have dark themes. Things are going to get bloody. More warnings may be added as time goes on, just know that this is not going to be a light story - although there will be fluffy/humorous moments in here. If anyone is triggered by the warnings above, then please do not read this story - if you do, then it is your own fault for doing so.

I guess with Halloween here or right around the corner, I'm just in that mood, you know? Not going to lie, I got this whole idea from a dream, and then got to talking with nightmaster000, who was nice enough to talk ideas about this AU. So, thank you for doing that!

Also, just a heads up, Sonic characters are not what they seem in this story. They act the same, have the same name and such, but they are different. In different positions in life, have different wants, ect.

I can only hope that I can shock a few of you with what goes on, or at least make the deaths graphic enough that it scares someone. I might not be the best writer, but I hope that I do this well enough - I'm not used to writing graphic deaths or the details filled with gore, so this will be new to me too. It might take time to get to the more violent parts though.

This is set in modern times on Earth - that is filled with Mobians and humans. Because of this, there are no powers. Sonic can run fast, but not at super speeds for example. They also wear clothing, full outfits, and no big white gloves unless stated. Mobians and humans can have families together as well. Half Mobians and humans will be called 'Faunus'.

Now, lets get on with this wonderfully bloody story!

-Chapter Start-

Flora didn't know that reincarnation would be so....average.

Really, it was like living her first life all over again. Sure, she might be a light blue female hedgehog anthro/mobian now, but the parallels between her two lives were hard to ignore.

Being born to a single father who showed her no love yet gave her what she needed to live and nothing more, no mother in sight, no friends, and no romantic partner was how her life went the first time. Sure, her father had a new kind of face, but that didn't change the fact that it was the same thing. The only difference at the time would be her grades in school, Sonic characters were actually alive and walking around, and the fact that she has past memories in her head.

Honestly, it was the fact that Sonic characters were walking around, alive and wearing clothing. She went to high school with some of them. She might not know a lot about the Sonic franchise as a whole, but she is pretty sure they never went to school. Other than that though, they were normal students, so it wasn't too off the mark from her first life because she didn't really interact with them too much.

No, it's after high school that things really started to change and become different from her first life.

First, her father dies of a heart attack. From working so long and so hard the doctors said. In her first life, she had actually died before her father. For once, she had to go to a funeral for a family member - who should have been her only family member.

Only, that wasn't how it was in this life.

At the funeral, Eggman himself walked up to her and said he was her uncle and on her father's side - which was something she didn't see coming because her father was a Mobian like her, but not shocking as these type of families are normal in this day and age. Oh, he looked a bit different from what she could recall seeing in her past life; Less egg shaped, taller and buffer. But still wearing the shaded glasses and had a mustache.

Eggman was also the chief of police, had many medals to his name, and was seen as a hero in the city of Mobius for all his work in keeping the city safe. Flora had been worried about him being evil, mean, plotting to kill - but instead she got a warm, jolly man with a serious edge to him. With her father gone, Eggman offered to take her in so that she didn't have to worry about anything until she got herself a job and home. While worried, she took the offer and didn't regret, even after she moved out.

With Eggman came Snively, her cousin. He was tall, balding, and was a well known, famous medical doctor. He was on the colder side, professional to the end, but it was easy to see that he had a soft spot for his family and little children that came into his office for check ups and surgeries. Later down the line, it was easy to see Snively was nothing like Flora's father - not when after his ex-girlfriend gave him all the rights to their daughter and agreed to never bother them. It was easy to see Snively was trying his best for his baby girl; Hope Robotnik.

Flora still had a small family, but it was way bigger than the one in her last life. But, some things also never change.

She still worked hard and opened her own flower shop in the city, simply called; Petals. In her last life, she had owned a flower shop, and had died in it after taking a shot for a child she didn't know. She died surrounded by flowers, and for the life of her, she can't help but want to be surrounded in them again. But, she isn't stupid. Flora took self-defense and first-aid classes just in case. She wasn't going to be helpless.

So, she opened her own shop once more, living above it. It was a nice life she built for herself even though she was only 23 years old. But, the again, in her last life, she died at 24. At least this life so far was better.

Next door, to the left, of her own shop was Rouge's Clothing Store. A female white bat owned the store - making and selling her own clothing, and is the maker of a well known clothing line. Rouge and her actually knew each other from high school, they were partners in science class for three years straight. Back then, she wouldn't call them friends, but now, Flora could. Flora loved getting together after store hours or when both of them were off work to just talk. It was nice.

Across the street were some luxury apartments. Vanilla and Cream the Rabbit both lived in there, and Flora herself was close to them. She watched over Cream, and her best friend Mina, ever since they were young. Even now when both Mina and Cream are teenagers, Flora still watches over them, it's like having two little sisters. Vanilla herself was sweeter than ever, inviting Flora over for dinner and treating her like a daughter. She never had a mother, in either life, so she can't help but love it each time Vanilla smooths her quills or fusses over her.

Flora visits her Uncle Eggman at the police station daily, talking with him and the other officers that are in the station at the time. Vector, Espio and Charmy were the ones to always stop and chat with her. Luigi, one of the human officers, always made sure to give her a nervous smile if he can't stop and chat when she visits. She visits her cousin, Snively, and takes care of Hope when the nanny Snively hired can't.

It wasn't the best life, but it's one she found that it was her favorite one yet.

Then, of course, everything changed when an old classmate from high school came back into the city for some business and decided to stay.

---------------------------------------

How far are you willing to go for love? How far until the love runs out or is not enough? How much are willing to take for love? Where is the line? What needs to break and give? How much is too much? How much are you willing to bleed for love? Can you kill for love? Can you ignore the glaring flaws in another for love?

Love is blind. Love is madness. Love is neither black and white. Love is the one thing that starts and ends wars. Love is that fine line that anyone can pass without knowing.

What is love to an insane, unstable person? What is love to an ordinary person?

Can love truly save someone?

Because it is so easy for love to break someone; Mentally, physically and emotionally.

---------------------------------------

Flora, when everything is said and done, can only cry as the blood pools around her.

She's drowning in love.

-End Chapter-

Now, please keep in mind the warnings as this story goes on. I can't stress this enough. Also, keep in mind that characters are not all that they seem, but this will show more as the story goes on. For example, Eggman is actually a great and hardworking guy in this story, seen as a hero for all his good work.

Some characters will take time to come into the story. Think of it like arcs I guess. There will be also subplots in this story.

In the next chapter, the warnings need to be heeded. Because that is when I am really going to start it all, as this chapter is just a prologue.

In any case; Happy Halloween! I hope you all will enjoy this bloody story as much as I do making it.
