==Synopsis==
Thirteen years before the events of Sonic the Hedgehog (1991), Sonic was born in Christmas Island to Jules and Bernadette Hedgehog, who were normal hedgehogs. Ivo Robotnik, a twenty-six year old grad major along with several other classmates traveled to Christmas Island and took custody of many animal inhabitants including Sonic. Sonic and his animal friends were then relocated to the United States. Ivo and several of his colleagues experimented on Sonic and he was exposed to a drug called "JFL-214", which was artificially created retrovirus designed by Ivo's grandfather Gerald Robotnik to cure Neuro-Immune Deficiency Syndrome. The test proved a success with most of the animal test subjects, most notably Sonic. Due to inhaling the experimental drug that, through neurogenesis, repairs brain cells and increases mental capabilities, Sonic soon grew the ability to speak and was given human sapience and anthropomorphic abilities. Sonic was naturally born with super speed, and all the shoes he wore all burnt out to them not being able to tolerate friction. It was then when Ivo created the Power Sneaks, a special pair of shoes that are friction proof and can show no signs of superficial damage even when Sonic is moving at the speed of sound. With the help of Ivo and his super speed, Sonic battled the test subjects who went wrong and a tribe of Echidnas and other villains.
