Terror At the Olympic Games

Terror At the Olympic Games is a fanfic by BearfootTruck. In this fic, Sonic is competing in the Summer Olympics, which are being held in Emerald City. Unbeknownst to him, 1. One of his fellow athletes has a crush on him, and 2. A notorious terrorist group is plotting to disrupt the Games for their own selfish ends.
==Synopsis==
The Summer Olympic Games are coming to Emerald City, and Sonic couldn't be more excited. One thing in particular that has him pumped up is the fact that this Olympics will feature motocross and automotive polo. In spite of Rouge plying him for information about what events he intends to compete in, the Blue Blur is confident that he'll take home the most gold medals. Although he suspects that Rouge wants the info so that Shadow will train hard enough to one-up him, what he doesn't know is that the Ultimate Life Form is secretly in love with him and wants the information in an attempt to impress him. Indeed, Shadow even threatens Tails to get the information, which angers Sonic and causes a fight between the two, which not only results in Rouge breaking it up, but causing the Ultimate Life Form to feel sad because he feels that he alienated the Blue Blur.
On July 21, the Olympics get on in earnest at the Mobius Royal Coliseum. Joining Sonic and co. are the cast of the Mario games. Sonic helps the Mobian men's soccer team win their first game against the Roseinian men's soccer team on the first day. Shadow is impressed by Sonic's skills, but is still too anxious to be able to reveal his feelings. Other highlights of the first week include Espio getting multiple golds in the martial arts events, Shadow executing some fantastic dunks in the first round of the men's basketball tournament against Team Columbia, Amy getting a grand slam in the first round of the women's softball tournament against Chun-Nan's team, Sonic and Tails winning an auto polo match with Robotnik and Snively against Mario, Luigi, Bowser and Bowser Jr., and Sonic winning the men's Open class race in Motocross, the last one being notable because he upset Roseinian champion Grigoriy Shvartsman. Eventually, the night of August 1, Shadow asks to dance with Sonic at the Glitter Palace disco, and he gains the courage to admit his love for Ol' Blue, which makes both of them very happy.
Unfortunately, at 4:30 in the morning on August 2, things go horribly wrong: a group of masked individuals sneak into the Olympic Village and capture a number of Mobian athletes. Knuckles is shot trying to stop the terrorists. He survives, but is in critical condition. Sonic and Espio, however, escape and spread the word about the attack. King Maximillian Acorn and Queen Alicia Acorn make a plea to all countries not only to lend assistance in getting the Mobian athletes back, but also not to accept this sort of behavior. Eventually, the terrorists identify themselves as members of the Roseinian People's Direct Action Front. They demand the release of Roseinian citizens being held prisoner in Mobius in addition to the release of two Mobian citizens arrested for colluding with the Roseinian government and a plane to take them to Nakagrad, even sending a picture of Knuckles being tended to as a reminder of how serious they are.
Not one to kowtow to terrorists, King Max enlists the Royal Mobian Constabulary to rescue the hostages while he feigns negotiations with the terrorists. Sonic offers to help. Initially, the Constabulary rejects his help, feeling that he might be a liability, but Ol' Blue points out that as an athlete, he knows the Olympic Village well and can help them with the layout. Ergo, they give in, and with his help, constables take up various positions around the village, while King Max carries on with his bit. The terrorists prove stubborn and insist on being given two ECTA buses to transport themselves and the hostages to Acorn International Airport. Unbeknownst to all, the terrorists plan on carrying out an attack at the airport.
A problem arises during the operation: although the Constabulary was initially assured that there were only twelve members of the RPDAF, twelve more terrorists have joined them in the process, wielding light machine guns and RPGs in addition to wearing body armor. Add to that, twelve more disguised as civilians are at various positions around the terminal. In spite of this new development, sharpshooters at the airport forge ahead and kill a number of terrorists, and Espio kills the ones in the terminal. However, the remaining terrorists get wind of this and are about to kill the hostages aboard the plane when Sonic – wearing a Constable's Deployment uniform – comes in and offers to sacrifice himself to save the remaining hostages. As Big Blue is about to be executed, Shadow pulls a gun and kills a bunch of terrorists before the Constabulary kills the rest. Sonic also averts disaster by assuring the constables that Shadow's not a terrorist.
For their gallant actions in the face of danger, Sonic and Shadow are both awarded the Royal Medal of Merit. In the end, the Kingdom of Mobius takes home the most gold medals, although the Mushroom Kingdom is a close second. After the games, Sonic and Shadow spend time on the observation deck of Emerald Tower. Shadow is rather puzzled as to how such a terrorist attack could have happened. Sonic chalks it up to people bearing such severe grudges and having such a desire to be in the limelight that they end up doing things like that. Nevertheless, he is convinced that as long as people like him and Shadow continue to love each other and spread kindness, then maybe terrorism will become nothing more than a bad memory.
In the epilogue, Shadow apologizes to Rouge for fighting with Sonic before the Olympics and for making Tails cry. After crying himself and hugging Rouge, Shadow pays a visit to Sonic and Tails' place, where after saying "hi" to Sonic, he apologizes to Tails and gives him a hug, after which he enjoys the breeze by Azure Lake.

==Trivia==
*This is the first of BearfootTruck's fanfics to feature Mario characters.
*Out of all of BearfootTruck's fanfics, this has the largest cast list.
*This is the second of BearfootTruck's fanfics to mention auto polo, and the first to depict it.
**As mentioned in the article for Wir sind Menschen, auto polo was a real sport, but it died out long before the era of "land yachts" such as the Chevy Impala and Dodge Polara.
*This is the second of BearfootTruck's fanfics to depict Uncle Chuck as the owner of a heavy equipment repair shop, in addition to being the second to feature Rocky.
*The opening ceremony was largely modelled after the opening ceremony to the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
*This is the first of BearfootTruck's fanfics to depict the national anthem of Mobius…or any national anthem, for that matter.
*Anthony Grebleips' last name is "Spielberg" spelled backwards, a reference not only to Steven Spielberg, but to his 1971 movie Duel, where such a name was used.
*This is the first of BearfootTruck's fanfics to depict Amy's mom, and the second to depict any of her parents.
*This is the first of BearfootTruck's fanfics to depict Mina Mongoose and Honey the Cat.
*The "Blue Monster" at Zephyr Stadium is a reference to the "Green Monster" at Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox.
*In contrast to real life, softball games are played at softball fields, which are typically smaller than professional baseball fields. BearfootTruck just put softball at Zephyr Field for the dramatic effect of the ball going over the "Blue Monster".
*This is the third of BearfootTruck's fanfics to depict the Glitter Palace discotheque.
*This is the second of BearfootTruck's fanfics to depict Rouge giving someone an Extra-Special Hedgie Huggle.
*Sticks splitting the arrow is a reference to Errol Flynn doing the same thing in The Adventures of Robin Hood.
**Ironically, such a trick was busted on MythBusters. In reality, the trick was accomplished using a wire-guided arrow with a wide tip, which split a hollow arrow.
*The Columbian men’s basketball players are named after famous NBA players:
**Michael Bird is named for Michael Jordan and Larry Bird.
**Wilt Ewing is named for Wilt Chamberlain and Patrick Ewing.
**Julius Thomas is named for Julius "Dr. J" Erving and Isaiah Thomas.
**Hakeem Malone is named for Hakeem Olajuwon and Karl Malone (or Jeff Malone or Moses Malone if one prefers).
**Kareem Worthy is named for Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and James Worthy.
*Shadow's game-ending dunk is a reference to Chuck Connors being the first NBA player to shatter a backboard, doing so on November 5, 1946.
*This is the second of BearfootTruck’s fanfics to feature the Blitzkrieg Arcade and Joey's Pizza.
**However, Joey's was also mentioned in Sonic Tells the Truth to Amy.
**Coincidentally, this is also the second of BearfootTruck’s fanfics to feature the game Qix.
*Sonic's line about doing what Nintendon't is a reference to the Sega Genesis slogan "Genesis does what Nintendon't".
*Rouge's line about not seeing the sudden curve until it’s way too late, as well as the later reference to Shadow dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun, torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike, are both references to the song "Bat Out of Hell" by Meat Loaf.
*Chapter 9's title is a reference to the song "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas.
*This is the second of BearfootTruck's fanfics to depict Sonic autographing a color glossy photo of himself for a fan.
*Tantalus was a character in Greek mythology who killed his son Pelops, cut him up and offered him as a sacrifice to the gods. As punishment, Tantalus was made to stand in a pool of water with a branch of fruit hanging just out of his reach. Whenever he attempted to take a drink, the water would lower, and when he attempted to have some fruit, the branch would raise. This is the origin of the word "tantalize".
*Grigoriy Shvartsman is loosely based on real-life Soviet motocross racer Gennady Moiseev. However, there are a few differences:
**While Moiseev's height and weight are largely unknown, it's not likely that he was as large as "Big Grig".
**While Moiseev did race on CZ motorcycles at one point, he was better known for winning on KTM motorcycles.
**Moiseev was better known for racing in the 250 (Intermediate) class as opposed to Shvartsman, who races in the Open class.
*Some of the motocross racers are named after famous real-life motocross racers:
**Marty Hannah is named for Marty Smith and Bob Hannah.
**Gaston DeCoster is named for Gaston Rahier and Roger DeCoster.
**Brad Pomeroy is named for Brad Lackey and Jim Pomeroy.
**Heikki Pielinen is named for Heikki Mikola. "Pielinen" is Teimo’s surname in My Summer Car.
**Jaroslav Vrubel is named for Jaroslav Falta.
*Chapter 15's title is a reference to the song "Your Love" by Lime, which is coincidentally mentioned in that chapter.
*This is the second of BearfootTruck’s fanfics to depict Sonic and Shadow taking a shower together.
**Coincidentally, Shadow also tickles Sonic in this scene.
*Sonic telling Shadow that "joint" is not a letter is a reference to a fake Sesame Street skit where Kermit and Big Bird are high.
*The terrorist attack on the Olympic Village is a reference to the infamous Munich Massacre. However, there are a few differences:
**Unlike Munich, the Mobian government had a special ops unit, namely the Royal Mobian Constabulary.
**None of the hostages died in Emerald City. Granted, Knuckles was shot, but he survived.
*There are two references to the British Special Air Service (SAS) in this fic, aside from the fact that the Royal Mobian Constabulary was partially based off of the organization:
**Both Chapter 18 and Chapter 19's titles are a reference to a 1982 action movie starring Lewis Collins, Judy Davis and Richard Widmark about the SAS.
**Additionally, Chapter 19's title is the SAS motto.
*Ohshima Avenue is a reference to Naoto Ohshima, the designer of Sonic and Robotnik.
*This is the second of BearfootTruck's fanfics to depict Sonic referencing They Live!
*This is the first of BearfootTruck's fanfics to have a character other than Sonic delivering the message in the "Sonic Says" segment.
