It was your average Tuesday morning. I was…in school. I stared blankly at my paper which I was suppose to be reading. "And that is why the water-glider is counted as the most unique out of its breed." My teacher added. I yawned bored. Today was a easy lay back day. It is actually going to be the last day of school for me. To past the time, I day dreamed. I pictured me, swimming in a mystical pool. The water running through my hair, and the currents of the stream pulling me gently…ever so gently that you felt that you were on a cloud. I sighed in this thought, but was rudely awakened by a paper ball that was struck at me. I dashed my head up and looked around annoyed. Of course, my teacher was still talking. I look over to my friend Cassie. She was giving me a confused glance. "What?" I mouthed to her. She grinned and pointed at the clock. It was 9:28. In two minutes would be our 30 minute break. Yes! I looked back at her and smiled. I gave her a thumbs up and than quickly began putting my stuff in my shoulder bag. A moment later the bell rang and everyone was dismissed from the classroom. "Claire! I need to talk to you." Cassie said excitedly. "Sure, what's up?" I asked as her strawberry brown hair bounced around. Her green eyes shinned with excitement over what ever it is. "I finally beat the Sonic game!" she said smiling. I grinned. "Good job! Did you use that technique I gave." She rolled her eyes. "Yeah I did! It went awesome!" she said grinning. I laughed at her.

"Lets go freshen up. I think I smeared my makeup." I suggested. She nodded. Cassie and I are big fans of the Sonic series and games. We even have emeralds. We both saved our money for them. They are a good size, but are very expensive. Around 200 dollars for each. There real, so we are always protective over them. Mine is blue and Cassie's is green. "You think my hair should be up or down?" Cassie whispered as she fidgeted with her bangs. "I always liked it down." I replied as I fixed my hair. I had blue eyes and blonde shoulder length curly/wavy hair. We are both very active so we do our best to stay fit. I am wearing a classy above knee blue dress, with a large bow behind me. I kept my emerald in my shoulder bag which was a small leather pouch made by yours truly, me! Cassie was wearing a similar dress, only it was green. We actually bought them together. She carries her emerald in a light teal purse given by her aunt. "Alright, I think we should-" I was cut off when the ground vibrated harshly. Cassie alarmed grabbed my hand startled. I looked around.

"What the heck was that?" I whispered to myself. "You don't think its an earthquake do you?" Cassie asked as we stood up. "I don't think so. It wasn't how I-" again we were thrown to the ground by the shaking. "Claire!" Cassie yelped now terrified. I saw the fear in her green eyes. I was scared too…but someone needed to be strong here. I smiled. "Don't worry Cassie! Everything will be fine!" I stood up this time bracing myself. I took Cassie's hand and walked down the hall. We walked down to the main hall. Everyone was gathered worried. I gave a reassuring smile to Cassie before I let her hand go and ran to a teacher. "What's happening?" he turned around and looked at me surprised. "Claire? Were not sure..." I glared at him and turned back to Cassie who was watching me anxiously. "There not sure what is going on Cassie. But what ever it is, everyone will be alright." I said smiling. She nodded unsure but said, "Can we go outside? I would feel better there."

"What on earth…" I looked around to see huge devastating holes around the building. Each of them a perfect circle, and same size. "This is amazing…" I whispered kneeling down to get a closer view Some other kids and teachers also were outside. Looking at the sky, or looking around nervously for the unexpected. "Claire! Look at this!" I looked up to see Cassie eyeing the sky. "What is it?" She shook her head in response. I looked up as well. "Oh my…" There coming down to the ground was a large ship! It…no it couldn't be. Cassie was giving me the same expression. "That…looks like…" "The egg carrier!" she gasped. Almost everyone was outside now. Literally, everyone. Slowly, the ship landed. The group of people backed up making a large hole where the ship was. I heard whispering. Crying. Even a couple screams. I look towards the crowd as their faces were filled with fear and worry.

I spun around as I heard the sound of metal doors crashing down on concrete. Cassie glared protectively at her purse and then took at step back. There before us all, was…Dr. Eggman. The most evil man in the world. Only…he wasn't suppose to be real. Cassie looked at me and whispered. "I thought he was fake!" I nodded and replied annoyed, "Hehe, I guess we been hoodwinked." She shot me a startled look and then back to Eggman. Everyone became silent as the man walked towards the crowd. Even the teachers didn't know what to do. I and Cassie were in the front line of people, and I was so afraid of what lies ahead. The man had a long fuzzy stache and big goggles. He was…round. And was very…tall. He looked at all of us and then said, "Hello! My name is Dr. Eggman! I have come here because I am aware that there are Chaos Emeralds around." My heart jumped. Chaos Emeralds? If…if Eggman is here…than, does this mean our emeralds are real? I turned to Cassie who was breathing extremely hard. I placed my hand on her shoulder and whispered still looking at Eggman, "Don't worry. He wont realize we have them if we don't say anything." "Shadow!" Eggman yelled. I looked towards the back of the wall, to see a black and red hedgehog.

I gasped and backed up with Cassie close. "Shadow, can you pin-point where exactly the chaos emeralds are?" Eggman said eyeing us all. The hedgehog nodded and walked along the front group of kids. His crimson eyes piercing…and his ears flickering at the slightest sound. Everyone stepped aside…as if he was cloaked in a shield causing them to move. He looked over everyone and then…me. I took my glaze away and then Cassie. She was scared. I was scared. Heck, we all are deathly afraid of what is happening! He stepped up to me and Cassie. He was only a couple inches shorter, and yet I felt that he was overpowering us both in height. I then felt my Chaos Emerald glow intensely, and then stop. I looked alarmed and then Cassie did the same. "I believe we have our winner. What's this?" Shadow looked at me and then Cassie who was hidden behind me. "It seems your friend has one as well." I grimaced and stepped back but, Shadow grabbed my hand. Everyone gasped. The teachers and a couple of the kids stepped up, but Eggman then sent robots. They threatened them, causing all the heroines to cower back. I don't blame them. Eggman looks terrifying.

"Good job Shadow. The rest of you! GET BACK!" Eggman bellowed. His robots stepped around me and Cassie and began marching. They moved everyone back, when I yelled, "Hey! You cant do this!" Eggman looked at me and laughed. "Little girl! You are so easily confused. I am the Great and Powerful !" I looked at him and then Cassie. A grin ran on my face. Cassie looked at me and shook her head. "Don't do that!" I laughed a little but said, "It will distract him, if you get the chance, run!" She gave me a hesitant look but nodded. I then giggled but made a straight face. "Oh! Oh the pain!" I began yelling loudly trampling over things on purpose. I then landed on my stomach and whispered, "The pain! Oh the world as I know it is over!" I heard laughter, and I knew it was Cassie. 'Where is Shadow?' I thought, but then heard Eggman yell at me annoyed. "Girl! Get up! You are wasting-OW!" I then grabbed Eggman's legs and pulled them up, causing him to fall over. Cassie began laughing hysterically. I bolted up and said, "Oh look at that! I'm healed! Thank you Dr!" I gave a wave of my hand and dashed out with Cassie by my side.
