A Future Told
Note: Due audience demand & since it's a new year, I'm publishing this story & my Sonic X story early. I will be posting new chapters every other Saturday. I'm still doing my Swan Princess Story and when that is done, I be posting this story on the regular schedule.
I do not own Sonic the Hedgehog or the comics. All right go to SEGA & Archie
The Sonic Archie Comics will always have a special place in my heart, even if it is no more. This story will mostly be in my character's POV
(Third-Person POV) (This story begins after Issue 134)
*Far away from our world is another world called Mobius. This world is mostly inhabited by creatures called Mobians. Our story begins on a mountain, far away from any form of civilization. The only sounds heard were the Flickys chirping & a stream flowing. Suddenly, a blue blur came zooming through at an incredible speed. The blur climbed the mountain until it reached to top, coming to a stop. Now standing at mountain's peak was a male colbat blue hedgehog with peach skin & green eyes (17 yrs old) wearing red sneakers. He stretched his arms above his head & took in a big breath of fresh air*
Sonic: Aaah! Now this is my kinda day. Nothing to do except run.
(Sonic's POV)
*It's now been two weeks since my return from my year long trip through space. It felt awesome to be back home with my family & friends. Especially the love of my life, Princess Sally Acorn. Things did get a little awkward between us when she asked me to stop fighting Eggman because she was afraid of loosing me again, but I told her that I had to keep going, for both of us. It took a lot of convincing, but eventually she gave in. "After a few minutes of taking in the view, I took off back down the mountain. I started making my way back towards Knothole when something made me stop in my tracks. It was a purple tent, decorated with suns, stars, & crescent moons. In front of it was a sign that said "Fortune Telling-100% Accurate". I didn't really believe in this kind of stuff, but I had nothing better to do, so I went inside. It was full of candles & smelled very strongly of lavender. In the center of the tent was a table that had a tea tray on it. I could see the steam rising from the two teacups. Sitting at the table was a female Mobian wearing a dark purple cloak. She had her face covered with her hood. Next to her was a raven on a perch*
Fortune Teller: Hello young man, please come in. But do close the curtains. My pet doesn't like the light. *I closed them & stepped inside* Have a seat. *she motioned to the chair across from her & I sat down* Tea?
*She handed me one of the cups*
Sonic: Uh . . . No thanks. So, can you really tell the future?
Fortune Teller: Why of course I can. Would you like me to tell yours?
*I thought for a moment & shrugged*
Sonic: Sure why not. *she started staring at me* So, you gonna read my palm or look in a crystal ball or something?
Fortune Teller:*chuckles* Oh, I don't need to do any of those. All I need to do is look into your heart. *I gave her a confused look. she stared at me for a few more seconds & smiled* You have a very strong karmic energy coming from you. I see a lot of bright light around you & that's always a sign.
Sonic: What kind of sign? Is it a good one?
Fortune Teller: Oh yes, a very good one. It means that you are surrounded by loyal friends.
*I looked at her with wide eyes*
Sonic:*in his mind* Maybe she really can tell the future. *out loud* Well, that's true.
Fortune Teller: I see 18 very strong friendship lights around you.
Sonic: Those are my best friends all right.
Fortune Teller: Wait! I see 19.
Sonic: What does that mean?
Fortune Teller: It means that you will meet a new friend.
Sonic: Really? Oh, could it be Sally?
Fortune Teller: I do see the name Sally. But, she falls under a different category. The girlfriend category.
Sonic: Really!?
Fortune Teller: Oh yes. I do see a few bumps in the road, but it will all work out in the end. I see great romance for the both of you.
*I could feel my cheeks getting red*
Sonic: Wow. So, what can you tell me about this new friend I'm going to meet.
Fortune Teller: Well, I see that very soon you will meet a young girl cat with long orange hair. And this girl will have a white Chao wearing a green scarf with her.
Sonic: Whoa.
Fortune Teller:*gasp* Oh dear!
Sonic: What? Did you see something bad?
Fortune Teller: I'm very sorry dear. But I see darkness and great peril. I see long dark hallway. Yes. Your new friend is in that hallway. She is in a place of that is home to a very dark and powerful evil and she is in grave danger!
(Third-Person POV)
*The Fortune Teller was correct. Standing in the hallway of an old castle was a female orange cat with peach skin, her hair in a high ponytail, & blue eyes (15 yrs old) wearing a black jumpsuit, black boots, black fingerless gloves, a brown belt, & a blue pendant. Hanging off her belt were two silver hook swords. On her left shoulder was a white Hero Chao wearing a green scarf. She looked around a corner, but immediately pulled back when she heard voices & footsteps heading towards her*
Dark Egg Legionar: Come on! Hurry up! If we don't find her, Lord Hood will have our heads!
*A group of Mobians wearing green tunics & with robots parts on different parts of their bodies ran past her*
(Abigail's POV)
*I let out a sigh of relief*
Abigail:*whispering* Thank goodness for dumb henchmen. *to the Chao* Come on, Huck. We gotta get to the dungeons.
Huckleberry: Chao-Chao!
*I quickly ran down the hallway, Huck holding on tight to my left shoulder. After a few more turns & about two flights of steps, I made it to the dungeons. I looked into one of the cells*
Abigail: Psst! Hey!
*The prisoners in the cell looked at me. Inside was a female white rabbit with peach skin & brown eyes (15 yrs old) wearing a pink blouse, purple skirt, pink bracelets, pink shoes, & a pink bow in her hair. Next to her was a male gray rabbit with peach skin & brown eyes wearing a red sweater vest over a white shirt, blue pants, & brown shoes. He had his arms around a female white rabbit with peach skin & purple eyes wearing a red shirt, purple skirt, & black shoes. She had her arms around 3 gray, purple eyed rabbit boys (8 yrs old). They were dirty & their clothes were looking a little ragged*
Lacey:*whispering* Abby! *she ran up & hugged me through the bars* Are we finally getting out of this horrible place?
Abigail:*whispering* Yes. Let me just get this door open.
*I reached into one of my pockets & pulled out a set of keys. I opened the cell & Lacey's 3 little brothers hugged me & started crying*
Jane:*whispering* Oh, Abigail. I was beginning to think this day would never come.
Peter:*whispering* Did any of Hood's men spot you?
Abigail:*whispering* No. There is a secret passageway that leads outside next to the door to the dungeons. I'm going to free my family and we'll meet you there. After that we'll head for Deerwood Forest and search for Hideaway.
*Lacey hugged me again*
Lacey: Good luck & be careful.
*I nodded & ran out the door. Huck & I went quickly & quietly as we made our way to the East tower. When we reached the top, I unlocked the door & went inside, only to find it empty.
Abigail: What!? Mom!? Dad!? Grandpa!? Where are you!?
*Suddenly, my foot bumped against something. I looked down & saw a holographic watch. I picked it up & saw it had a recorded message on it. I pressed play & an image of a male green & yellow snake with blue eyes wearing black & red cybernetic armor appeared. I glared at the image*
Mordred Hood:*through the wristwatch* Hello my dear Abigail. If you found this message, your probably wondering what has happened to your precious family. I assure you that they are quite safe. For now. If you want them back safe and sound, come to the cliffs west of Snottingham and return what you stole from me. If you refuse, well, I just hope you said your goodbyes.
*When the message finished, I crushed the watch in my hand & growled. Huck looked at me worried & nuzzled the side of my face*
Abigail: I'm ok Huck, just frustrated. I'm almost wishing I had been caught sooner. Come on. We gotta head for the cliffs.
*I ran out of the room. Ready to knock Mordred's teeth out when I get my hands on him*
*By the time I made it to the cliffs, it was getting close to dawn & no one was there*
Abigail: Alright Mordred! I'm here! Show yourself!
*Suddenly, I heard a slow clapping coming from behind. I turned around & there was Mordred Hood with a whole squad of Legionars*
Mordred: Punctual as ever, my dear. That's one of the reasons you were one of my favorite soldiers and -
Abigail: Spare me the formalities, Hood! Where's my family!?
Mordred: Straight to the point. Another reason you were my favorite.
*He snapped his fingers & a few of his goons brought forward three cats. The first was a male yellow cat with peach skin & blue eyes wearing a green short sleeved jacket over a black t-shirt, white gloves blue jeans, & brown shoes. Next to him was a female orange cat with peach skin, her long hair in a braid & green eyes wearing a white apron over a purple dress, purple bracelets with white gloves, & brown flats. Next to her was an old male rust red cat with peach skin & white hair wearing slightly cracked trifocal glasses, a white lab coat over a blue collared shirt, brown pants with brown belt, and shoes*
Abigail: Dad! Mom! Grandpa!
Laura: Sweetheart!
Lawrence: Angel!
*Dad just glared at Mordred*
Mordred: How touching. A family reunion. The combined theatrics of tragedy and comedy. *he turned to me* I really am disappointed in you, my dear Abigail. We could have ruled this Kingdom together.
Abigail: I was never on your side to begin with, you over-grown worm!
*Dad looked at me with a smirk & Mordred glared at me hard*
Mordred: Well then, if it's going to be this way, how about we make things a bit more interesting.
*He snapped his fingers again & his goons brought forward Lacey & her family*
Abigail: Lacey!
Lacey: I'm sorry Abby, we didn't get far.
Mordred: Now that all of the guests have arrived, let's get down to business. Abigail, you hand over the information you stoll from my computer & they all go free. If not then . . . *he snapped his fingers for a third time & his goons pointed their weapons at my family & Lacey's. having no other choice, I reached into my pocket & pulled out a flash drive. I threw it to him & he caught it with on hand* There's a good girl. However, I'm afraid I can't let your treachery go unpunished.
*Suddenly, out of nowhere came 2 laser blasts. One blast hit my left arm & the other hit my right leg. Lacey & my Mom screamed. The force of the blasts caused me to loose my balance & I fell over the cliff. As I fell from the cliff, I felt a surge go through me. An image flashed before my eyes. I saw what looked like a group of Mobians. At the front of the group was looked like a blue hedgehog reaching his hand out to me. But because the picture was blurry, I couldn't see their faces. That was the last thing I saw before everything went black*
(Third-Person POV)

Sally: We'll be setting up detonators here, here, & here. We'll split up into 3 teams. Team Freedom. Team Fighters. And Team Chaotix. While Sonic creates a distraction, Team Freedom and Team Chaotix will - Uh, Sonic?
*They all looked at Sonic who was sitting at the end of the long table. He wasn't listening. He looked very lost in his thoughts*
(Sonic's POV - In his head)
Fortune Teller: She is in a place of full of a very dark and powerful evil and she is in grave danger!
Sonic:*in his mind* I can't stop thinking about what that Fortune Teller said. When will I meet this new friend? What kind of danger is she in? How can I help her?
(Real world)
*I had so many questions swirling around in my head, I didn't notice Knuckles trying to get my attention until . . .*
Knuckles: MOBIUS TO SONIC! ANYBODY HOME!?
*He screamed in my ear, making me fall out of my chair*
Tails: You ok, big bro?
Sonic: Yeah. I'm ok little buddy.
*I got back in my chair*
Amy: You sure Sonic? You looked really distracted.
Sonic: Yeah. I just had a lot on my mind.
Antoine: Are you still zinking about zat Fortune Teller you told us about?
Sonic: Yeah.
Julie-Su: It still sounds like a load of baloney to me. I mean, come on. No one can really predict the future.
Cream: Well, I hope his fortune does come true. Meeting a new friend sounds wonderful.
Cheese: Chao-Chao!
*I was about to say something when a male cream dog with brown spots & blue eyes (8 yrs old) wearing a red neckerchief, white gloves, & blue sandals came running into HQ, panicking*
Ben Muttski: Sonic! Princess Sally! Emergency!
Tails: Muttski! What's going on?
Ben Muttski:*pant* . . . Lookout . . . Coming towards . . . *pant*pant* . . . Hurry . . . *pant*
Bunnie: Whoa there, Sugar. Slow down. Take a deep breath. *he took a few deep breaths & started to calm down* Now, what in the hoo-hah is goin' on?
Ben Muttski: One of the lookout towers spotted something headed towards Rosie's house in Knothole!
Sally: Is it Dr. Eggman?
Ben Muttski: We're not sure. But we need your help now!
Sonic: You got it, little buddy. Freedom Fighters! Chaotix! Let's do it to it!
*We all ran out of HQ & headed straight for Knothole*
*When we arrived at Knothole, almost the whole village was gathered behind Rosie's house. We got to the front of the crowd & got our weapons out*
Vector: All right people, back up! We'll handle this!
*As we got ready, something came out of the bushes that made us all gasp in shock & surprise. It was a girl cat a year younger than me with long orange hair in a high ponytail wearing tattered black clothes. A blue necklace hung from her neck. Two hook shaped swords hung from her belt. She was holding her left arm & both her legs were shaking, like she could barely stand. Tears were running down her face from her blue eyes. I walked up to her & reached out a hand to her*
Sonic: Hey, are you ok?
*Just as I finished asking, she fainted. I caught her just before she hit the ground*
Amy: Is she okay?
Sally:*to the crowd* Somebody go get Dr. Quack, now!
?: No need, Princess. I'm right here.
*A male yellow duck with green eyes wearing a black eye patch, white doctor's coat over a green turtleneck, & a doctor's mirror stepped up & put his stethoscope to her chest*
Sonic: Well, Doc. How is she?
Dr. Quack: She's exhausted to the point of collapse & from what I can see she's got two laser burns on her arm & leg. We better get her to the hospital in New Mobotropolis.
*I nodded & started to pick her up bridal style. Just as I did, something white fell out of her backpack*
Mina: What is that?
*Cream picked it up*
Cream: It's a white Chao. And it's wearing a green scarf. Poor thing looks just as exhausted.
*As as she finished, I gasped in shock & almost dropped the girl*
Sonic: This is just like the Fortune Teller said! A young girl cat with long orange hair and a white Chao wearing a green scarf!
Espio: What else did she say?
Sonic: That this is going the beginning of a brand new adventure for all of us.
