Axel was a 14 year old boy living in our world. It had been years since he saw his cousin Max and Uncle Ben. Oddly enough he only had seen them on his birthdays, and when he and Max went to summer camp, but ever since the move he hadn't seen them again. When he asked his parents why they said they'd tell him when he was older. Axel's favorite game series was Sonic the Hedgehog, for some reason his parents thought it was amusing.
Today was a normal day for Axel as he was just talking to Titin, a voice in his head he never told anyone about. Now Axle wasn't insane or anything, although there used to be anther voice named Noel. Noel's voice was gentle while Titin's was rough but friendly at the same time. Axle never knew what happened to Noel, but one day he was gone. "Thinking about Noel again Axel" Titin asked
"You're in my head you should know" Axel replied
"Yeah I know" Titin said
Axle couldn't resist "about being in my head or if I'm thinking about Noel?" he asked to confuse Titin
This caught Titin by surprise which was evident by his answer "I-I don't know".
"Relax I'm just messing you man" Axle reassured his friend
"You suck you know that right?" Titin asked
"Ok maybe we should stop saying 'know'" Axle suggested
Titin was about to respond when Axle mom called him down for diner "coming mom" Axle called out, but by the time he got to the stairs he heard his mom scream "mom!" Axle yelled as he ran down to see what happened. When he got down he saw a man with a gun.
"So you had one with that loser, but not with me" the man growled when he saw Axle
"Seymour leave Axle out of this, it's just between you and me" Axle's mom said
"Mom who is this" asked a scared Axle
This surprised Seymour and he replied by asking "you mean you don't know. Unbelievable your parents never told you who you really are did they?"
"Seymour don't do it." Axle's dad warned
"To late" Seymour said and he shot Axle's mom then his dad.
"No!" Axle yelled as he ran over to his parents
"Run…Axle" his mom said weakly
"Again, too late" Seymour said as he shot Axle
"No" Axel cried weakly. Death will overtake him now is what he kept thinking, but it didn't. Instead he felt like his body was being torn every which way. When he woke up he found he couldn't open his eyes, but he did hear voice.
"Will he be alright" said a girl voice
"I don't think he'll survive this wound" said a young male voice
"Hey Axle you ok?" this voice he knew. It was Titin
"Titin is that you?" Axle asked hopefully
"The one and only" he replied
"What happened?"
"What do you think you happened, you got shot you moron"
"Besides that"
"That I don't know, but maybe the people by us do"
"You hear them to?"
"Of course. Now shut up and listen"
"So he's dead" said an older male voice
"Yep, no heartbeat" said the young male voice
"Dead…they think I'm dead?" this surprised Axle quite a bit "maybe I am. Maybe dead people can hear things" he suggested
"We aren't dead you idiot" Titin replied
"Is he glowing?" asked a new male voice
"What does it mean" asked new young girl voice
"He's got a heartbeat!" said the young male voice
"Man he is one lucky hedgehog" said the first older male voice
"Did he say hedgehog!?" Axle yelled
"Please tell me these people are blind" Titin begged
Axle felt he could open his eyes now, but they were not used to the light so he did it slowly
"Hey he's coming to" said an even older girl voice
"Man it's about time I can open my eyes" Axle said relieved
"Wait, are you saying you were awake the whole time?" asked the young male voice
"I think so" Axle replied "by the way my name's Axle. Thanks for saving me" it was then that he saw the people who saved him, or should I say the animals that saved him.
"Well Axle it's good to see your ok" said a two tailed fox which he knew was named Tails
This caused Axle to faint "oh no is he ok" asked a pink hedgehog named Amy
"He's probably dreaming now, I've got an invention that will let us see what his dreams are" Tails said
"But that's invading his privacies isn't it?" asked a rabbit named Cream
"Normally yes, but we're trying to help him" replied Tails
Later when they got Axle hocked up to the machine and saw inside his dream they saw something they never expected. He was a human, and he was playing video games, but not just any video games. He was playing game with them in it. "He must come from a world that watches' other worlds through video games and stuff" Tails suggested
"But then why was he surprised to see us" asked a blue Hedgehog named Sonic
"Maybe he doesn't know" Cream tried
"But then how did he get here" asked a bat named Rouge
"Let's ask him when he wakes up" suggested a red echidna named Knuckles
Later when Axle woke up he saw that they were all staring at him. "What?" he asked confused
"Who are you?" asked who he knew to Amy
"Axle Marna" he answered
"I think what she means is 'what are you'" replied Shadow
"What do you mean?" Axle asked not knowing what they meant
"We saw your dream" Sonic explained
"Blue blur say what now?" asked Axle
"I knew it was wrong to watch his dream" said a guilty Cream
But Axle didn't seem mad. In fact he seemed relived "well that saves me the trouble of explaining" said Axle
"Well…we still want to know how you got here" Tails pointed out
"……………………………………………………………………………………………..do you really want to know?" asked a nerves Axle
Not picking up on it Knuckles replied "yes we do"
"Fine, someone named Seymour shot and killed my mom, dad, and I" Axle replied with tears in his eyes
"Oh man. I didn't know" said a remorse filled Knuckles
Tails was thinking about something and asked Axle "but you said this Seymour guy killed you…then how are you still alive?"
Axle looked at him and replied "listen this is as much a shock to me as it is to you"
"Right sorry" Tails apologized with his head hanging low
Axle saw the remorse in his eyes "it's ok" he said to reassure him
Suddenly they heard the radio (which no one noticed before) announcement "this just in. Dr. Eggman is attacking-"after that it was cut of
"Eggman" scoffed Shadow
"All right it's time to party" cried an exited Sonic
Everyone but Axle left the room to fight Eggman, but Amy stopped and asked "hey Axle what to come with us?"
Axle couldn't believe his ears "you bet
