Alright, ladies and gentlemen, since I got good reviews for my Bleach fanfics, I figured that I ought to try my hand at a Sonic the Hedgehog fanfic. If you have any objections, that's your own problem. This one will be a Sonaze fic in the human world (mind you, Sonic, Blaze and their friends are still anthropomorphic animals) and it will also be a crossover with Mario, but mainly centered on Sonic and Blaze.

Let's get on with the show.

Disclaimer: I don't own Sonic or Mario and you know it!

Love at the Olympics

Blaze the Cat would love nothing more than a vacation from dealing with the vile Dr. Eggman Nega. The fat bastard has gotten on her nerves (as well as Silver the Hedgehog's) time and time again, trying to steal the Sol Emeralds in the process. 'I swear, he just does this to give me a headache,' she thought. She and her self-proclaimed sidekick, Marine the Raccoon, had just got finished dealing with another one of the evil doctor's machines. As they reached their house, Marine had checked the mail and noticed something in a special envelope for Blaze.

"Hey, Blaze. Check this out! It looks totally ripper!" said Marine.

"Let me see it, Marine."

"Dear Blaze the Cat,

It is with distinct honor that the Olympic Athletics Association invites you to the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. The transportation will be provided for free should you accept. We humbly congratulate you on your acceptance into the Winter Olympics.

Sincerely,

The Olympic Athletics Association"

"THE WINTER OLYMPICS?! SWEET! Maybe you'll get to see Sonic again!"

Blaze blushed at this thought, mainly because Sonic has always been there for her. It has been no secret how Blaze felt about him. "I hope so, Marine. I certainly hope so."

Speaking of which, Sonic the Hedgehog got himself in yet another showdown with the villainous Dr. Eggman, who, unlike his counterpart/descendant, doesn't have as many screws loose. Whereas Nega loves to get on Blaze's nerves, Eggman often gets irritated with Sonic due to the many years Sonic spent wrecking his machines and protecting the Chaos Emeralds.

"Let's face it, Egghead. You're not going to win. That one wasn't even that tough," said Sonic, who just got finished tearing down his latest machine, the Egg Mace. Before he trashed it, it was over 10' tall with a hole in the top of its torso for Eggman's ship to fit in. For its weapons, two maces on each arm that were about 5' in diameter (A/N: Think about the Egg Breaker in Shadow the Hedgehog, with two maces).

"Curse you, Sonic!" exclaimed Eggman. Just then, Omochao appeared between the two and handed each of them a special envelope, not unlike the one Blaze got. They both immediately recognize the envelope's design.

"The Winter Olympics!" They said in unison.

"Hey, Eggman. Truce?" asked Sonic.

"Until the Olympics are over, Hedgehog." With that, they parted ways and prepared to head to Sochi for the Winter Olympics, knowing Mario and his crew are going to be there. Sonic also made a note to see if Blaze and Silver would join. This would be the psychokinetic hedgehog's third Olympics that he participated in. Ever since he, Metal Sonic, Donkey Kong, and Bowser Jr. entered the Winter games in 2010, the kid has always had a good time. This is why he started to hang around the team some more. At least he never gave them a hard time except when Sonic wanted to be alone with Blaze.

Blaze, on the other hand, has participated in every Olympics that Sonic has, and if she said she didn't enjoy it, then she would be lying through her teeth. She loved the Olympics for 3 reasons: 1) it gave her and Sonic a chance to team up for 2-on-2 events, as well as catch up; 2) she got to shut Sonic's self-proclaimed girlfriend Amy Rose up; and 3) it gets her away from Eggman Nega.

The only one Sonic would have a hard time against in his group was (as far as speed was concerned) Shadow the Hedgehog, who calls himself the "Ultimate Lifeform". Ever since the two met in Station Square, they have been in a long-standing rivalry, always trying to prove which one of them is faster. His other rivals would include Knuckles the Echidna, Jet the Hawk (who did not get invited by the way), and, of course, Mario. Of course, Knuckles and Mario are friendly rivalries, while Jet and Shadow are not so friendly.

Sonic got to his house and picked up a phone that Tails specifically designed for him, Blaze, and Silver. This allowed them to communicate across time and space, even different dimensions. Sonic called Blaze first, given his strong feelings for the feline overtook his "hedgehogs-before-hos" policy. Everyone except Blaze and Amy knew about Sonic's feelings for the fiery princess. Blaze didn't know because of her duty to guard the Sol Emeralds, and Amy didn't know because apparently, where love is blind, obsession is deaf.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Blaze. What's going on?"

"Hey, Sonic! Not much. Did you get an invitation to the Winter Olympics?"

"Yeah, I did. I was going to call Silver to see if he got one as well. Then we could meet up at Sochi."

"That sounds awesome. I'll see you at Sochi. Bye!"

"Bye, Blaze!" With that done, he decided to call Silver next. "Hey, Silver. What's up?"

"Not much. Let me guess: you got an invitation to the Winter Olympics, too?"

"Yeah, and so did Blaze."

"That's great! Maybe the three of us can hang out some time!" Silver said excitedly. He always saw Sonic and Blaze as his older siblings, which would put him in a rivalry with Tails, Marine, and Cream the Rabbit, who has been dating Tails since the death of Cosmo. Silver also has a crush on Amy Rose, but was too shy to act on it. Of course, Amy was also obsessing over Sonic, but knowing that he didn't return the affection, Silver bore no grudge against him.

Sonic grimaced at what he said. "Yeah, that would be great. Okay, see you in Sochi, Silver." Once again, Sonic was not too keen on having Silver or anyone else, especially Amy, disturbing any opportunity to be alone with the feline princess.

After Sonic got ready, he and the others took the plane to Sochi for the Winter Olympics. Sonic sat next to Blaze, Shadow by Rouge, Knuckles by Amy, Silver by Metal Sonic, and Tails by Cream (Cream was going as a referee). Eggman rode his Egg Ship to the event.

After a while, the group arrived in Sochi, having a few days to prepare for the events. Sonic and Blaze went to the registration office to sign everyone in (Amy was obviously jealous that Sonic took Blaze instead of her. Talk about pissed). When they got signed in, Sonic took a look around to see if he could find Mario.

"Long-a Time, No See, Sonic!" said a voice behind him.

"What's up, Mario!" said Sonic.

CHAPTER 1 END

Chapter 1 of this fic is done, folks. Don't worry; I'll focus the next one on Mario and co. The fic in general will still focus on Sonic and Blaze. Keep in mind that this is my first Xover fic, so bear with me. Also, this is my first Sonic fic as well as my first Mario fic.
