Slave of the Pharaoh

Chapter 1: The Pharaoh of Egypt

The new Pharaoh of Egypt, Sonic the Hedgehog, was walking through the palace. He had just been elected, and wondered what to do. He smiled, deciding to go into the city to mingle with his subjects. He ran to his room to throw together a disguise first. The Pharaoh of Egypt walked out of the palace, wandering around the city. He smiled at all the people and continued to walk. The city was a great place to live. He talked to some of his subjects, all of them unaware the he was the Pharaoh, smiling when he heard all their hopes that he would prove to be a kind Pharaoh. He continued to walk through the city, eventually finding himself in front of the small Orphanage that lay in the slums.

He frowned at that, mentally promising to have it moved into a more sanitary area. Sonic shook his head and walked inside. He was shocked to see the state it was in, anger quickly becoming prominent in his eyes. He began walking around the Orphanage, looking for the owner with the intent to harshly punish them. As he entered the children's quarters however, this thought quickly vanished when his eyes fell on a group of kids that were picking on a little anthropomorphic rabbit. He walked up to them and spoke.

"You little brats! Stop this at once!" Sonic's anger was obvious in his tone as bullies jumped and spun around to face him.

"Who are you to tell us that?" One person asked.

Sonic growled under his breath, then ripped down the hood concealing his identity. "I am your Pharaoh you insolent little wretch!"

Everyone gasped and ran off. Sonic looked at the rabbit. He knelt down in front of her, and put a comforting hand on her back. "Are you alright little one? Did they hurt you? What's your name?"

The little rabbit sniffled, the spoke. "Y-yes my Pharaoh...I'm okay. They were just calling me names because I'm different from them. My name is Cream."

Sonic smiled. "Well Cream, you won't have to deal with them or this disgusting place any longer, you're coming with me."

Cream blinked in surprise, about to speak when the orphanage owner came into the room. "This is a surprise," he said. "What can I do for you, my Pharaoh?"

Sonic stood up and glared at the man. "I'm adopting this child. The other children here do nothing but bully her, and this orphanage is in a sorry state."

"Of course. We'll fix it right away."

"And I will give you some help with that. I will send some skilled craftsmen to aid you, I am going to have this orphanage moved to a better part of the city, and give you some money for repairs." The owner nodded. Sonic smiled and left with Cream. Cream was in a state of semi shock, staring up at her Pharaoh. He looked down at her and smiled. "Are you hungry Cream?"

Cream blinked, then smiled and nodded. "Yes my Pharaoh."

Sonic laughed. "You don't have to call me Pharaoh all the time; come on, let's go get you something to eat."

She nodded and followed him. They went to the market and bought some food, then headed back to the palace. Sonic wasted no time, he found Cream a large comfortable bedchamber, and got her some clean clothes to change into. Cream smiled, grateful for him adopting her.

"Thank you...Sonic. Thanks to you, I never have to worry about those bullies again." Cream said shyly.

Sonic smiled and rubbed her head. "It was my pleasure Cream. I'll never allow anyone to bully you again."

The rabbit nodded. Sonic smiled, happy that he had adopted Cream as his daughter. Cream stiffened for a moment, then hugged Sonic, surprising him before he smiled again and hugged her back. "You should get some rest Cream, it's getting late."

Cream released Sonic, then yawned. "Alright Sonic."

Sonic smiled and put her in bed, watching her fall asleep. Then he went to his own room and yawned, falling asleep as well. He was going to make a great Pharaoh. The night passed quickly, and as the sun rose, so did Sonic. He walked into Cream's room, who was awake.

Cream smiled as she saw Sonic. "Hi, Sonic!"

The Pharaoh nodded and smiled. "Hello Cream, you're up early."

Cream sighed, "I couldn't sleep that well, I left my Chao plushie back at the orphanage...the bullies have probably ruined it by now."

Sonic frowned. "I'm sorry; why didn't you say anything?"

Cream sighed again, then smiled. "I was in...slight shock from you adopting me, and I forgot."

The Pharaoh smiled. He walked out of the room and came in a few minutes later; he had a surprise for her. "Cream, I have something for you."

Cream blinked. "What is it Sonic?"

Sonic smiled again, and handed her a small box with several holes poked in it. "Open this to see."

Cream did so and saw something fly out. It was a blue Chao. It flew down and hovered in front of Cream for a moment, and the two stared at each other before the little Chao smiled and plopped himself on her lap. "Chhhhhao!"

Sonic smiled, and Cream looked at the Chao before looking at Sonic. A smile was on her face. "Thank you Sonic! I love him! Does he have a name?"

"Chao!" It said.

Sonic chuckled. "He doesn't have a name yet, I thought you would want to name him." Sonic chuckled again at the sight of the little Chao snuggling up to Cream.

Cream giggled, petting the Chao. "What about...Cheese?"

The Pharaoh nodded; that would work. Cheese clapped his hands happily.

"Chhhao!" Cheese giggled, then flew over to Sonic, and landed on his head, startling him. Cream laughed, joined by Sonic after a few seconds.

Sonic smilled. "Cream and Cheese huh? I like that." Sonic laughed again, then reached up and picked up Cheese. "Hey little guy, go back to Cream now okay? I have to go to a meeting now."

The Chao nodded, and flew back to Cream. Sonic smiled, and walked off to his meeting.
