"Look, Sam. You can't expect Station square to shut down just so you two can have a race." Grampa Chuck informed Sam. Hoping that will be the end of it and he can go home.

"Oh, yeah? You want to bet?" Uncle Sam walks over to the TV and turns it on. Where the news lady was up in a helicopter at Station Square. Wow, bro really had some real dedication. All because his fast ego was ran over by a blue Hedgehog rocking red puma sneakers. I can lie if probably feel the same way. We all get jealous too, Sam, don't worry...but over a teenager? Geez.

"THEY'RE JUST ABOUT READY FOR THE BIG RACE HERE AT STATION SQUARE. THE STREETS WILL SOON BE COMPLETELY CLEARED OF TRAFFIC. AND AN ENORMOUS CROWD OF GATHERING ALL ALONG THE COURSE, WAITING FOR THE RACE TO START."

We all watched the TV with amazed. Well everyone but me and Sonic. Especially when I saw today's sponsors...

"THEY'RE CHEERING NOW FOR THE SPONSORS OF TODAY'S RACE! THE POPULAR MOVIE STAR, LINDSAY FAIR! AND HER HANDSOME MOGUL HUSBAND, NELSON THORNDYKE! AS WELL AS THE FAMOUS TREASURE HUNTERS KELLY PERRY AND HER HUSBAND JAMES SULLIVAN!"

Are you kidding??

"This just keeps getting worse..." Chris adds. "I bet my nightcap that your guy's uncle is the one who got them involved in this race." Chuck also adds. His face just as grumpy as mine was. Sam goes back to Sonic's face which was also near mine. Making me back away from him invading both of our personal spaces. "Well Sonic?? Your not going to disappoint that crowd are ya? They've been waiting for hours to see us go human to hedgehog."

"Tough." Was all he responded with. I'm just glad he doesn't know anything about the fast ability on my rocket boots thanks to Sonic. And I'ma try to keep it that way for now. Anywho, Sam begins to thrown quite the tantrum with Sonic's reject. Like a little kid not getting his way.

"GRRR!! CMON!"

(No One's POV)

Eggman was playing chess with one of his machines. Sadly, he had gotten check mate which really threw him over the edge. Him calling his machine a cheater while it responded back with him insulting him. Calling him a loser. To which the doctor did not talk likely. "WHAT??? I built you and I can unbuild you!" Reaching over to the robot. Causing the table and the chest board to fall over. Grabbing a hold of the robots neck and shaking it. "I'll check mate you!!!! You pawn!!!" The robot then promised him that he'll let him win next time. In order for Eggman to release him. "There won't be a next time!" His voice said with venom. Before he could do anything to the little robot. An alarm goes off as a screen appears right in front of them. Showing a man wearing a trench coat and a fedora on top of his head. As well with sunglasses. Trying to be hidden and mysterious.

"Dr eggman, I have a proposition for you."

Said the mysterious man. Which was really just Jerome in a disguise. Eggman wondered but also question who the man was. Jerome just told him that his name didn't matter and began to really catch his interest about if he wanted to settle the score with Sonic. "...Yeah- maybe." He had about 50% of his attention. But still wanted to hear him out.

"What if I told you that Sonic had been challenged to race against the high-tech rocket car designed by the government?"

Eggman, whose was still gripping on to the robot's neck, was rather shocked by this information. Jerome adds on. "In fact, sonic, is so scared he'll be defeating that he turned us down." Now this really caught the old mans. "Oh??! And so you need me to get Sonic in the race? That's it?" Asked the evil genius. "You convince Sonic to enter that race, I'll get you and your daughter front row seats to an ice show! For some father and daughter bonding." Eggman will admit. He was shocked that he had figured out that she was his long lost daughter. But who can blame him, they both were incredible geniuses.

"And Ice show??? Are you kidding?? My daughter deserves something better than that! And if she's anything like her old man she wouldn't-"

Decoe and Bocoe jumped into the picture. Holding their hands together and pleading to the doctor. Saying how they absolutely loved figure skating and that they'll work day and night without any complaining. And not even behind his back. To which the doctor agreed.

"Alright... It has been a while than I lost seen my precious little girl. It's about time she spend time with her old man!... But how do I know this isn't some kind of elaborate trick you're playing on me?" They asked the mysterious man / Jerome.

Has attend, he quickly took off his glasses and gave them large puppy dog eyes. With sparkles and his pupils and everything. Making the three of them back up. It was not cute if anything it was kind of uncomfortable to look at. But either still, he accepted. Turning over to the small robot who had beat him in chest. "I'll need a robot to stop Sonic." "Me?" Asked the little robot. Looking up at the doctor and the two assistant robots on his side.

"I'll rebuild this one into a model that forces Sonic to enter the race." The little robot begged not to volunteer. But sadly is begging had to affect on the super evil genius.

☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡

Amy, Tails and Chris we're all gathered around Uncle Sam's brand new car. One of the fastest ones with the rocket that was designed by the government. Tails and Amy commenting on how cool it looked and that it really does look fast. "My uncle Sam wouldn't drive it if it wasn't cool and fast." Chris praised his uncle in a way. Bokkun laughing caused Chris's face to turn the other direction. Groaning once hearing him. "Where's Sonic? Where's Kid Genius! I have to see him now. I brought a message with me." Order Bokkun. Who then spotted the two chilling at the balcony.

Kid Genius who was writing out new blue prints for a new ray gun. As Sonic was on the end of the balcony resting his head back. Both enjoying the quiet untill Bokkun interrupting their time and ruining the mood. "WAKE UP! I have a message for you." Said Bokkun who woke up Sonic. Kid Genius throwing her pencil at his face. "Oh no! No no! Whatever Eggman wants tell him to suck a lemon! We beat his butt last time! Can we get a break!" She was just annoyed. Sonic quickly jumped into her arms and gripped on to her. Thinking that another TV was going to blow up in their faces.

"Relax. I promise this one is it going to blow up in the end." Replied Bokkun. The duo look at each other. Then back at the little pipsqueak of a robot. "Okay...what is it then?" Question Sonic. Y/N also was kinda curious what it would be.

"You better enter that race, Sonic!! Or else you'll have to face this!" Bokkun takes out something from his bag. Placing it on the railing of the balcony. They both stare at it and horror. It was a weird shaped robot. It looked nothing more than a slim pole, with clown looking shoes, and giant large plump pink lips. Two blue eyes on top with yellish looking eyebrows.

"Hi there~"

Said the robot. Puckering its lips and making smooching noises. Kid Genius scrunches her nose and disgust. "Ehh! What kind of freaky robots is that old man making! I do not consent to this-" "At least he isn't after you!" Sonic jumps out of her arms it begins to run away from the smooching robot. The blue blur backed up in a corner. The robot about to slam his lips onto the little guy. Thankfully he had ran just in time and Kid Genius throws a chair at him ...which absolutely did nothing but break the chair.

"....What the heck is this creepy thing made of??? I've heard of going through a midlife crisis, but come on Eggman!" Bokkun just continues to laugh at the event taking place. Sonic grabbing onto my waist as his claws through his cloves digs into my shirt like a cat. "Yuck! I don't wanna take any lips from that robot."

"Even Eggman is in on this?? Why does he want Sonic to join the race? Why does he even want to help? Did Sam tell him?- No, he possibly couldn't have.... Who could it be. I have at least a million of theories but zero answers. I hate not having answers." Y/N spoke inside her mind. Looking at the robot. Then, speak of the devil, Sam starts up his engine as the sound of a large rocket engine being blasted ringed through their ears. Sonic looked over the balcony to see a raging Sam. Geez, never seen him this mad... All because a teenage hedgehog won't race him? So, that's why his girlfriend left him.

"I'M NOT GONNA TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER, SONIC, AND I WON'T LET UP UNTIL YOU AGREE TO RACE ME!" Screamed the ginger hair man. Sonic quickly made his decision once he saw the robot trying to kiss him again. "Then I'll race!!" He yanks her arm to drag him along with her. Just so the robot didn't have any ideas with her.
Poor Bokkun got his lips instead. Which was definitely Karma well given.

"Sonic are you serious? Y'know you don't have to give in to my stupid uncle? He's a sore loser."

"True, but I'm not trying to spend the whole day with that thing chasing me around trying to kiss me. I already have Amy doing that. Besides, it's just one little race. You can also join if you like~ See what those rocket boots can do!"

She thinks for a moment... Her rocket boots are fast but they don't fully match up with his speed... Then again her parents will be there. Just thinking of her losing and watching her parents get embarrassed by her failure would be a early Christmas present to her. Having an evil smile on her face.

"Why not dude! I already know your gonna win. I like to see my uncle's face up close when he cries after losing." Taking his hand and gripping it tightly. The two of them rushing over. Seeing Sam repeatingly pushing up and down on the gas pedal.

"Are you going to play with that pedal all day? Or are we going to have a race!" Sonic asked him. Leaving everyone is shock as it sudden change of heart. And also looking at Kid Genius adjusting her boots. "I hope you don't mind for a third racer? Hope that doesn't scare ya to much, Sam." Sam stares at his niece. Who cracked her knuckles and pressing some buttons on her boots. Smirking right back at her. Chuck looking at Chris as they both sigh at this. Knowing this was going to be a long day.

☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡

All three of them at the start of the race. Nearly everyone from the entire city came all around to see the great race. Sam Speed, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Kid Genius. His engine revving, Sonic stretches his legs, and Kid Genius was screwing in the last bolt of her boots. She only joined just to enjoy the race. She loved adrenaline rush.

All of their friends also gathered around. Amy kind of wondering what got Sonic all of a sudden to join. Tails having a hunch that maybe he couldn't resist the challenge. Chuck held the starting flag high. Holding it above his head. "On your mark." The three racers all with confidence smirks on their faces. "Get set." Sonic and KG give each other thumbs up. "GO!!" Chuck waved the flag down which made Sam hit his engine causing the two teenagers to fly back from the impact of the rocket. Kid Genius helping him back up and they began to catch up with Sam.

"This is Scarlet Garcia reporting from news Chopper One. We now continue our live coverage of the road race of the century, as Sonic the Hedgehog, and Kid Genius take on Sam Speed. After a delayed start, the racers left the Thorndyke mansion, and they're now speeding through downtown Station square."

As the racers were all aligned together. Kid Genius had noticed something off about Sam's rocket car....Where the heck were the wheels?? She signaled Sonic to look at his car. He had also noticed this odd picture. He hollered over to Sam. "Hey, Sam!" "Yeah, what??" Sam asked rudely.

"I thought this was supposed to be a road race, but your rocket card doesn't even touch the asphalt. What's up? That thing doesn't even have wheels!"

"Yeah! Isn't this cheating?" She asked him. She would be counting as cheating too. If she didn't have change the settings of her rocket boots to turn into roller skate mode. Which were basically highly energized constructed energy that forms into a ball like shape which allows her to roller skate at a fast variety of speed. That's why she was taking a while finishing some less bolts and screws into her shoes.

"Oh yeah? Look closer you two." The two both lowered their heads down to get a better look underneath the rocket. And oh and behold. There was a tiny tiny little wheel right underneath it. The same type of small wheels you'd see in the front of a plane. Only problem is those wheels aren't really meant to continue to ride like that. He could get really hurt if he hits a corner wrong.

"You see? The wheels guide the glide." The ginger said smugly. While the teens just looked more worried and full of concerned. Sonic asked him what he'll do if he gets a flat. Kid Genius on the other hand was to worried about what was up head. Riding on open road is one thing, it's another when you have to do it in the city. Where there are multiple Sharp turns.

"Our racers are about too the most dangerous part of the course as they steer through these narrow streets at super High Speed! But is the rocket car maneuverable enough to make those hyper velocity turns?"

Kid Genius began to calculate all the different turns they'll have to go through. Having a mental image of the whole city mapped out in her mind. She began to go through the most dangerous of turns and to watch out for any type of random potholes or dead ends? The whole city was like a maze. Those little puzzle mazes you get at a restaurant when they give you a cheap pack of crayons with only three colors. She always finishes them less than 3 seconds. Child's Play to her.

"I'll be easy." Sam spoke confidently leaning his head back. Sonic took up on his words. Telling him to prove it. Before taking the lead right in front of him and speeding straight to the city. Kid Genius following behind... She stayed behind for a reason. He seemed way too confident and cocky for this. Especially with how the rocket car is build. It's not meant to make sharp corners and turns especially with how small the wheel is. He was up to something. As much as she respected her uncle... He could be a dirty cheater at times when he doesn't get his way.

"Huh? Y/N? Having a hard time keeping up?" Sonic asked her. Kid Genius looked at the building... Noticing that in the middle of the city. Each building had an opening. All making it easier for him to drive through. She grits her teeth. "That cheater!!" I yell. Sonic and Kid Genius turned a corner. Sam had speed straight past them throwing Sonic off. He notices the easy straight roads through the buildings. Noticing how he managed to cheat. They both look at each other with anger. Running up to catch up to the cheating red head.

Both of them on his tail. Both in different sides of the rocket car. "That wasn't fair!" Sonic hollered. Sam just didn't care and told him tough luck. The two kids glare at the adult. Kid Genius quickly jumped over to Sonic and whispers something in his ear. Making the two of them giggle evily. Sonic jumped onto of Sam's Hood. Sitting straight on it and crossing his arms. Blocking Sam's view of the road.

"Oh! Get off of my hood, sonic!" Yelled Sam. Sonic just yawns and enjoys the nice air. Really trying to tick him off. "Nice breeze here. Lovely scenery. This was a very nice idea, Y/N. We should plan a date like this." Y/N blushes and slaps her forehead. Sam was flabbergasted. Still trying to look over Sonic shoulders. "Wait- YOU TWO ARE A THING??" "No we're not a 'THING'" Sonic scolds at Sam turning around to look at him. Which Sam sighs holding his chest. "Oh thank goodness, for a second I thought you two were-"

"We're a rad totally awesome couple!" Sonic winks at Kid Genius. Who just covers her cheeks and looks the other side. Sam looked like he was going to faint. But that would have to wait. "Hitching a ride is against the rules!" He goes back to the topic at hand. Sonic just tells him tough luck. Which really makes him mad. Nearly turning the same color as his uniform.

But Sam calms down once he had a great idea unfolding. "Hah! Okay, you got me, but would you mind moving to the back some so I can see where I'm going." Asked Sam. Sonic, who completely understood. After all he may have cheated but he doesn't want him to get into a freak accident at least. The blue hedgehog stands up, and begin to walk backwards on top of him. Until he was right above his head. But Sam told him further back. Sonic backed up furthermore until he was right on top of a oddly suspicious perfect circle on the back of his car. Kid Genius noticed the outlines and realized that it was a trap. "Sonic! Wait!" She hollers. But she just wasn't fast enough. Sam had pressed a button which caused the circle to spring up making him fly off the car.

"Sonic!!! Sam you jerk! What if he gets hurt???" Y/N was very worried. But Sam just laughed and told Sonic goodbye in a taunting manner. She knew she'd have to put him in his place. A small robotic hand emerges from her handy belt. Stabbing straight into his rocket car. Sending a few bits of voltage of electricity causing him to electrocute. Not too much where it really hurt him but just enough to sting at least. He screamed out in pain. Leaving KG with a peaceful smile. "YOU WANNA CHEAT! I CAN CHEAT TOO! Don't mess with me Sam." She threatened.

"Strange. What's Sonic doing? Why is he going the wrong way? It certainly is an odd tactic."

☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡

(Kid Genius's POV)

We were now at the desert. I couldn't lie my legs were starting to hurt a lot. But I couldn't stop now. No way I'm letting him win now. This was supposed to be nothing but fun and entertaining for me. But now I'm taking this competition seriously. Thankfully, in the corner of my eye I saw something blue catching up. I let out a relieving sigh. Glad to know he was okay. He'd better been or otherwise Sam would-... Oops, forgot this was a kids show for a second.

"That can't be Sonic!" Sam looked at the back view of himself. Seeing none other than Sonic catching up. But that was the least of his word is. Is out of nowhere something started to emerge from the ground few feet in front of us. Causing a large cloud of dust. Then a huge robot emerges from it all. It was a huge robot. And for some odd reason began to speak like Gandalf. "YOU MAY NOT PASS! TURN BACK!" It warned/threaten.

"A road block??!"

"This must be Eggman doing!"

I noticed that Sam wasn't stopping nor slowly down?? There's no way he was going to swerve past it. He'll crash when he gets the chance! Until I noticed his wings bending in a different angle. Making him dig straight under the robot. Then appearing right behind him. Continuing with the race.

I couldn't even be mad. That was kinda awesome. And because it seems like everyone was cheating- Looks like this will be a free for all race. I grab Sonic's hand and transform my boots back into rocket mode. Flying over the robot. Then landing perfectly behind it. My boots turning back. I wince a bit in pain. Sonic taking notice.

He jumps out of my arms and runs along with me. "What's wrong? Are you hurt??" "I'm good. My legs are just really tired. You have no problem running for a while and Sam's driving. But I'm not giving up that easily." I assured him. Who gave me a skeptical look. Now that I look at it. My legs were kinda sore. Only reason is because I have to tighten them really tight so I don't slip out. The down side of that... Very bad markings around the leg.

"It it gets to much! Don't force yourself! I'll stop and take you home!" "Sonic, no! I'm not letting him win! That dirty cheater needs to learn that you can't always win! And after what he did to you... I won't allow that to happen again." I rush past Sonic. Going to catch up with my uncle. I could hear him call out to me but I didn't listen.

☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡☆ﾟ⁠.⁠*⁠･⁠｡

Okay legs were killing me. But we were still at lead with my uncle. Who was looking down at his watch. "Wow! It's already lunch time." A compartment opens up. And a tray comes out with a double hamburger and a large soda. Seeing the junk food made me salivate. Sonic to looked like he was drooling.

My uncle caught us both staring at him eating. He offered us a bite but we both passed up the opportunity. I don't eat off of people. Family or not. We both speed off ahead. My stomach and his growl at the same time. His cheeks going red and mine heating up. "Come to think of it, I'm pretty hungry. How about you?" "I'm so hungry I mind end up eating you." He stares at me...before quickly moving a few inches. "I'm kidding!!... But seriously I am really hungry."

"Hey, Sonic! Kid Genius!" A familiar voice hollers up from above. Making the both of us look up. It was Tails and Chris on the X Tornado. Lowering down near us. Chris leaning over holding a lunch box full of food that Ella had made. Both of our expressions glowed with delight. We thanked Chris and tried to grab the food ....Until Sam drove past us, and sand covered me, Sonic and Chris. But worst of all....THE FOOD!!!

"MY BAD! HAH!" Mocked Sam. Oh that was the last straw for me. "YOU PUNK! GET BACK HERE!" I run ahead without Sonic. Who told them that he'll pass on the food. "Sorry guys! See you on the finish line!" Yelled out Chris. The race was nearly finished. So close. We just need to make it past the canyon, and then we head back to Station square. My legs were giving out. Even my knees were getting weak. I've never ran for this long. Am I quiting? No. Was joining the race a bad idea... No because I never have bad ideas.

This road race is still up for grabs. As our erasers prepare to speed through the canyon.

Thankfully it was a sharp turn through the canyon then we were on our way. Still all at lead with each other. We made it through with ease. Surprising so did Sam. Now we're on our way station square.

"Our racers have reached the halfway point and are now speeding back towards station square. Sonic, Kid Genius and Sam speed are still running neck and neck."

I don't think I'm gonna make it. My boots were overheating. Crap not this again! The steam was noticable. My feet began to burn.

"Now, the three challengers are racing into the city and pulling out all the stops as they speed towards the stadium!!"

"Y/N!! What's wrong?? Your boots! There on fire!" The smoke from my boots are getting bigger. Small sparks of flames shot out too. "Keep going! I have an idea!!!" "Are you crazy??! There going to explode! Let me help-" Sam interrupted their conversation. "All right!! It's rocket time!" The large rocket on his engine began to blast away. Sending him flying straight towards the finish line. Sonic looked at my eyes. Seeing I was just as determined.

"Look out! Sam speed is pulling away!!"

Sonic's feet became nothing but a blur. His speeding increased by double and was catching up to him quick. I ran straight to him... The sound of an explosion left everyone at a gasp. Both of my rocket boots exploded causing me a giant boost. I end up flying straight towards Sonic giving him a harsh push. But before I could... It was like he disappeared for a split second then came back right before I pushed him. The finish line ribbon breaks once we all go through. Me landing harshly on the ground face first.

Lifting my head slowly up. I could see the embarrassed look on my parents face from afar. My mother hiding her red face and my father looked like he was ready to throw a temper tantrum. I slam my face down onto the ground. This was all so totally worth it to see their faces. I felt someone lift me up. Sonic had his arms around me. Picking me up bridal. "Dude! You trying to let the whole world know??" I whisper. He presses his lips to mine. Pointing up at the TV.

"Well, it looks like we have a tie. That was close. Kid Genius seems to be alright after that nasty blow! Talk about girl power folks. The judges will examine the photos to see if they can determine a winner. The results will be posted on the stadium monitor!"

"I swear if I scuffed up my face for nothing -"

"Just watch."

The camera monitors began to flip through different pictures. Showing that Sonic did make it through the finish line way before Sam even caught up to it. Not only that, he jumped up near the camera just to pose. Then returned right next to Sam and pretended to be at a time with him. I stared at him with amazement. "Heh....show off." "Me? A show off? Neverrr... Also you do that again and we're going to have a problem?... Please don't put yourself in danger for me to win. Got it?" I laughed and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"AMAZING! Sonic not only crossed the finish line first, he went back for an encore. Sonic is the winner!"

Sonic spins me around as we listen to the people cheer for him. Just for us to hear the soft noise of someone calling his name. It was Chris's parents! My aunt and uncle. Lindsay was holding a bouquet of flowers as she congratulated sonic. My uncle clapping for him. Now all of our friends coming over to us.

Sonic thanks hers. Sonic holding onto the flowers and me. He held me close as we both blush. Everyone taking note of this. As well as the news reporter.

"Not only did Sonic win the race! But also some hearts? Are the rumors true of the famos duo of Kid Genius and Blue Blur secretly dating true?"

Everyone waited... wondering what we will say. We stare at each other and shrug. "Wanna give the people what they want?" "Well, sense they asked so nicely. Let's give them something for the front page news paper." He covers our face with the bouquet of flowers and kisses my lips. My eyes widen before I melt into the kiss. The crowd cheered much louder than before. I could even see the corner of my eye. My mother fainting from afar... Best. Day. Ever.

And it looks like it's just about to get better-

"Sonic!!! Kid Genius!! Congratulations are your um... Relationship! Also, that was a great race you put out there Sonic!" It was Jerome. Oh gosh not this guy again. He stood in front of us and held out his hand....Sonic and I just stare at him. Is he okay? Is he constipated? Oh wait, he waiting for Sonic to shake his hand. What, could the president not make it?

Sonic looked over at the bunch of photographers and news reporters waiting for Sonic to hold his hand. Which just left with kind of awkward silence. Jerome crouches down and whispers to him. Telling him to shake his hand. Saying to hurry up so they could take his picture. To which Sonic growls at this. But before any one of us could say anything. The president's assistant gets a phone call. Answering it.

"Hello. Oh hi there, Vivian. What? I'm under investigation for negotiating with Dr. Eggman??"

"I KNEW IT WAS YOU!"

Now that caused all the cameras to flash all at once. Reporters yelling out and holding them microphones towards him. His face was distrauded as he whined like a little baby about not becoming president.

Sonic looked at me. We both just looked at the camera and shrug. Going to kiss me again. But not before covering up the camera so no one can see. As the loud sound of a kiss was the only thing they could hear through the scream.
