SONIC.JD

An 22 year old named John Daniels walks home from the bookstore. John is 5’11” tall, weighs 149 lbs, has reddish brown hair, blue eyes, and is all around average-looking. he walks towards the mailbox and notices an box lying on his driveway, John grabs the box and walks inside, John then opens it and notices a CD that just says SONIC on it, and a letter from his best friend Richard Paulson.

**John**: *An letter from Richard Paulson? I haven’t heard anything from him since our college graduation. I’d give him a piece of my mind if he wasn’t my friend.*

(John opens up the note and skims through it, noticing that the letter looked like Richard was in a big hurry to write it, and then folds it back up)

**John** (thinking to himself): *This has better be not a damn prank by Liam Kipper. because if it is, I’m gonna beat the everloving shit out him. Also, why the hell does the CD has “SONIC” written on it? oh well, who gives a shit?*

John puts the disc into the CD, and plugged in an Xbox controller into the computer and starts playing the game, the game’s intro starts up with the intro to the first 16-Bit Sonic game, but when John pressed start, a split second frame of a black eyed (which bled dark red blood), lanky, Dark dull blue-furred (with the tips of Sonic’s quills being an light shade of violet and Sonic had 8 quills) and grinning with extremely sharp yellow teeth) Sonic slightly unnerves John. But he shrugs it off and kept playing.

The selection screen greatly confused him, The background was the one in the debug menu from Sonic 2 and the background music was a instrumental version of I Am (All of Me) from Shadow The Hedgehog. it had Tails, Ray the Flying Squirrel, Mighty The Armadillo, Amy Rose, Espio, Knuckles the Echidna, Cream, Sally, Silver, Shadow, Rouge, Metal Sonic, Dr. Eggman and finally, Sonic the Hedgehog himself. John knew that Tails and Sonic were playable in the 16-Bit version of Sonic 2, But John doesn’t remember any of the others being playable in any of the 16-Bit Sonic games.

**John** (thinking to himself): *Since when were Ray, Mighty, Amy, Espio, Knuckles, Cream, Sally, Silver, Shadow, Rouge, Metal Sonic and Dr. Eggman playable in a fucking 16-bit Sonic game!?*

John then concluded this was a hacked game, and noticed that every other character was locked, so he clicked on Tails. When he did, he heard some sort of a crazed, shrill pixelated laugh (which sounded like a mix of Kefka’s laugh from Final Fantasy VI, Omega Flowey’s laugh from UNDERTALE, Dr. Eggman’s laugh from Sonic CD’s bad ending) that lasted for five seconds.

## Chapter 1: The Sidekick

Three seconds later, the Zone card appeared and it said “HILL ZONE”, no “Green”, just “HILL ZONE”. The zone looked like Green Hill zone with a few differences. One of them being that the sky was a dark pink and the grass was a faded blue instead of green.

John started to move Tails to progress through the stage, and then noticed a bunch of smashed badniks and dead Mobini which were severely mutilated and coated in blood. the background started to to look like a post-apocalyptic version of Green Hill Zone with a massive ocean of blood.

When John got to the end of the stage, he saw Sonic, and noticed Sonic was eating the corpses of Antoine, Bunnie Rabot, Johnny (from Sonic The Comic) and Rotor, John tried to move Tails away from Sonic, but the screen suddenly turned black and a message popped up and said:

**HELLO, NEW FRIEND. I’M SONIC, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG**

**LET’S PLAY A LITTLE GAME, SHALL WE?**

**YES**

**> NO**

John tried to click on “NO” but the game automatically chose “YES” and another message popped up.

**LET’S BEGIN WITH THE FOX SIDEKICK**

The screen then said “OUR LITTLE GAME” and the stage was an extremely rusted version of Chemical Plant Zone from Sonic 2. The Mega Muck was colored red instead of purple.

John noticed that Tails looked absolutely terrified. He moved Tails across the screen, and then the screen flashed and said:

**TIME TO DIE, TAILS**

The next scene was Tails trying to fight Sonic but Sonic kept dodging Tails’s attacks, this went on for three minutes until Sonic threw a spike at Tails’s head and the screen went black with the sound of a human skill exploding and an body falling to the ground. The screen displayed another message that said:

**THAT WAS REALLY FUN**

**DO YOU WANT TO PLAY WITH SOMEBODY ELSE?**

John was shocked. He just saw Sonic brutally kill Tails, his best friend. He then shook it off and pressed the “B” button and it went back to the title screen. John noticed that Tails had changed a lot. Tails’s fur had changed into a dull red, His right eye socket had three human eyes in it, his left eye socket was sewn shut, and he had a look of extreme fear on his face.
