CHAPTER 1: The Return

Blaze's POV

It has been years since the loss (and return) of the Sol Emeralds, nothing too new, nothing too old. I am standing at the edge of a cliff, the Sol Emerald's altar behind me, and my city in-front of me. I am Blaze the Cat, Princess of my people and Guardian of the 7 Sol Emeralds. I look out to find a gust of wind blowing against my golden eyes, that brought back a vision. A blue ball, no, a blue hedgehog hurling towards a machine, destroying it. I know I was there to see this, but I could not remember who that blue hedgehog was. Oh well, I guess I will never see him again.

I sat down on the cliff, looking out towards my city until I saw a small glow coming from behind me. "Who is that?" I said getting in a fighting stance with balls of fire in each hand. I look to find that the glow was coming from inside the altar where the Sol Emeralds are. "The Sol Emeralds! I must protect them!" I said dashing into the altar.

I did not notice it at first, but after about a minute of searching the inside of the altar, I find the Emeralds glowing with immense brightness. After studying the emeralds for a bit, I walked up to them, unknowingly of what is going to happen next. "What the-" I said to myself, unable to finish my sentence before the emeralds' glow was too powerful for my eyes to see. A bolt of energy connected the emeralds together as if they were a giant ring. I braced for what was about to happen, even though I did not know what would happen next, because of the unpredictable energy of the Sol Emeralds.

As soon as the energy connected the last emerald to the first, a bright glow emitted from the center and a force was driving close things towards the center. A portal opened up at the middle and everything started disappearing once it reached the center. Before I even realized myself, I was being lifted and drawn towards the portal. I fought hard, using fire to boost myself from the portal, but it was too late! I was then being drawn into the center, unable to control myself as I was being sucked in, everything turned black.

When I finally came to, it was a bit too soon. I found myself falling through the air, above me being beautiful white clouds, below me, well lets just say it was going to be a wet landing. As I fall towards an enormous body of water, I braced for the water to splash against my dry fur, screaming along the way. I opened my eyes just for a split second until I saw a blue and yellow object flying right below me. All I could remember was a hard metallic landing and then blacking out, for the second time.

Tail's POV

"A wonderful day flying through the air, right Sonic?" I said as I was flying my Tornado through the air with Sonic running over the water below me. "Well I don't know about you, but I find running to be a bit more fun on wonderful days!" He said, chuckling at his own joke. "Sonic, do you hear screaming?" I said as I heard a feminine-like scream getting a bit louder. "What did you say Tails!?" He said, barely hearing me over the roaring engine of the Tornado. "I SAID, DO YOU HEA-", THUD was all I heard.

I slowed the Tornado down to check for any damages. Everything seemed to be fine, until I noticed a lavender colored cat on-board, unconscious. "Hey, are you OK?" I said, trying to wake the feline up while the Tornado was flying itself. "HEY SONIC!" I yelled, knowing he was a bit ahead of me since I slowed down. "WHAT DO YOU WANT TAILS?!" He yelled back. "I THINK YOU SHOULD CHECK THIS OUT!" I yelled back, pointing over to the feline. Strangely, I felt like I known this her before, I just could not remember when or how.

Sonic finally slowed down and hopped onto the Tornado. "Tails what is it that you want?" was all he said before being motionless as to who he saw. "I feel like I remember her but I just could not remember how." I said with a confused look on my face. Sonic still remained motionless, until a few seconds later. "Lets get her back to my place, she looks like she banged herself pretty hard on your plane Tails." Sonic said. I said nothing more as I steer the plane towards Station Square.
