I'm back with a new fanfiction. Anyway this right here is the prologue that will lead up to the events of the main plot, so I hope you enjoy.

As the scarlet morning rose up for the new day, Sonic the Hedgehog wakes up from his good night's rest. "Ahh what a beautiful morning." Sonic says to himself as he stretches away his yawns and looks over to his still sleeping wife Amy Rose.

Sonic and Amy had been married for over a year now, and not long after their marriage they found out that Amy was pregnant with their son. "When their new son entered the world, Sonic and Amy decided to name him Flash, he was a tiny blue hedgehog with bangs and quills and emerald green eyes.

Sonic was really happy with his life, he had two people that meant the entire world to them and only wished for a safe environment for them.

Sonic decided to let Amy sleep for a little while longer until she was awoken by the loud cries of Flash from his room. "Mhm Sonic, what's wrong with Flash?" Amy asked half asleep. "You go back to sleep, i'll go check on him." Sonic replied. Sonic got up and went into the baby hedgehog's room where he was crying.

Sonic peered into the crib and saw the tiny blue hedgehog crying. Sonic picked him up and smelled him. "I'm glad you're not dirty." Sonic said to his son. Flash began to dry up his tears and giggle at the sight of his father looking at him.

"Aw, were you just scared?" Sonic asked teasingly. "Well don't you worry, papa's got ya." Sonic said to Flash's innocent face. All of the sudden Amy appeared out of nowhere in Flash's room. "Is he ok?" Amy asked as she unintentionally jumps Sonic. "Woah don't scare me like that." Sonic replied as Amy laughed. "Sorry." Amy apologized.

Sonic gave Flash over to Amy so she could feed him. In the meantime, Sonic went to the kitchen and prepared breakfast for Amy and himself. "I wonder if Tails is still available for us to come over?" Sonic asked himself. "I'll call him in a minute." Sonic said as he flipped the pancakes over.

Sonic finished their breakfast just in time, Amy had just finished feeding Flash and put him down for a nap. "How is he?" Sonic asked. "Sleeping like a beautiful angel, we're very lucky to have him Sonic." Amy said as she sat down. "Yeah, you're right." Sonic replied as he began to eat his breakfast.

Once Sonic had finished eating he turned on his wrist communicator and called Tails. The communicator beeped until a tiny hologram of Tails's head appeared. "Hello." Tails said. "Tails, it's been a while." Sonic greeted.

"Oh, hey Sonic, yeah I guess it has been a while." Tails replied as he rubbed the back of his head. "You know we don't hang out much anymore, why don't Amy, Flash, and I come see you for a while and we can run around like we used to?" Sonic asked.

"That would be fun, we never did that ever since Flash was born." Tails replied. "Well ya know, times get busy." Sonic said to Tails. "How old is Flash now by the way?" Tails asked. "He's about two months old." Sonic replied.

"Ah, I see." Tails replied. "Well feel free to come over when you are able to." Tails replied. "Thanks buddy, i'll see you later." Sonic thanked. "Later." Tails said as he turned off his wrist communicator.

"Hey Amy, why don't you get Flash up so we can go to Tails's house?" Sonic asked. "Sure thing Sonic, just let me get ready first." Amy replied as she went to go take a shower. "Alright then, i'll get ready too." Sonic said as he began to get ready.

Sonic and Amy got themselves ready and awoke Flash from his nap. Flash was never one to cry when he was woken up so that was a relief on Amy. After all of these preparations, Sonic and Amy finally headed out the door to Tails's house.

On there way to Tails's house Flash began to cry again. "What's wrong sweetie?" Amy asked as she sniffed Flash. "Ugh, that's what's wrong." Amy said as she held Flash out to Sonic. "Here hold him real quick while I get out the diapers." Amy instructed.

"You're changing Flash out in the open?" Sonic yelled. "Well do you want him to stink and cry for the rest of the way to Tails's house?" Amy asked. "Fair enough." Sonic replied as he handed Flash back to Amy.

Amy began to change Flash when Sonic spotted something off in the distance. "What is that?" Sonic said as he squinted his eyes. Upon further look he noticed that it was Eggman coming over with an army of robots.

"Amy we need to get out of here now." Flash said as he pulled up Amy who wasn't done changing Flash yet. "Why is that?" Amy asked. "Look." Sonic pointed to Eggman and it horrified Amy. "Sonic let's get out of here now!" Amy yelled as she picked up Flash.

But it was too late. Eggman had already surrounded them and approached Sonic. "Ohohohoho, well if it isn't Sonic." Eggman said. "Nice to see you again Baldy Mcnosehair." Sonic replied in his smartass tone which caused Amy to facepalm herself.

"Don't call me that you little pest!" Eggman yelled as he slammed his fists on his control board. "Whatever, anyway what do you want?" Sonic asked. "Isn't it obvious?" Eggman asked. "I came here to kill you." Eggman said in reply to his own question.

Sonic looked at the robots slowly enclosing him, Amy, and Flash, and Amy was scared while she protected Flash with her life. "Tch, whatever." Sonic complained as he took out every single one of Eggman's robots in an instant.

"Why you little!" Eggman said as he began to fire jolts of lightning at Sonic. "Missed me." Sonic taunted as he dodged Eggman's lightning which only made him more angry. "You little!" Eggman yelled as he fired more shots of lightning missing Sonic everytime.

"When are you going to learn that you can't catch me?" Sonic asked. Eggman was furious and saw that Amy and Flash were left defenseless on the field. "You're right Sonic, I just can't catch you." Eggman admitted. "Well, looks like Egghead here is finally coming to terms with reality." Sonic boasted in victory.

"Eggman had an evil grin on his face and aimed at Amy and Flash. "But I can catch them." Eggman said as he fired the lightning straight at Amy and Flash.

Everything seemed to happen in slow motion as Sonic had realized what a terrible mistake he had made. "I left them defenseless, and now they're going to die!" Sonic yelled in his head as he ran to Amy and Flash. At that moment Amy shut her eyes and all she heard was a painful scream.

When Amy opened her eyes, she looked down and saw a horrifying sight. Sonic was lying on the ground twitching and spazzing out with static discharge all over his body and trying to breath. "Sonic!" Amy yelled as Flash began to cry.

"I did it." Eggman said to himself in surprise. "I actually did it, I killed Sonic!" Eggman yelled in excitement. "You don't know that!" Amy yelled back in tears. "Oh but I did, you see he may be alive now, but not in the next few minutes, that shock had enough current to kill hedgehog ten times his size, he's lucky to still be hanging on like this." Eggman said.

Eggman fled away confident in his victory leaving Amy and Flash along with Sonic dying on the ground. "Amy…" Sonic seemed to calm down, but he was dying quickly. "Sonic don't go!" Amy cried with tears rushing down her face.

Sonic mustered all of the strength he had left to talk to Amy one last time. "Amy listen, it was my own fault for leaving you and Flash alone like that, I should have gotten you out of there as soon as possible, but I ignored you and this is what happens to me for ignoring you like that." Sonic said as he held his chest in pain.

Amy was crying and not sure what she should do. She needed to get Sonic help as quickly as possible, but she couldn't leave Flash behind, and she couldn't carry them both at the same time.

Sonic lifted his hand and talked to Amy one last time. "Amy, I love you and Flash, and no matter what happens don't ever lose hope, I have faith that my son will bring Eggman to justice one day." Sonic turned over to see his son crying and felt a tear rush down his face as his vision slowly faded.

"Flash, I won't be around to see you grow up into the handsome hedgehog I know you will be. I won't even know what you fully sound or look like, I won't get to see you do great things, I won't get to see you find your love and have children." Sonic's vision began to fade faster and Amy and Flash's cries began to get further away.

"Flash, Amy, I love you." And with those final words, Sonic died in Amy's arms.

"SOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC!"
