The Sonic Island Government

## Background

Sonic Island, officially known as "The Sonic Island Government", is an extremely powerful nation on the continent of Japan, ruled by Dictator Zack Brighalstey Eggman. The SIG is famous for it's involvement in the many "Sonic Island Wars" which cost the world many billions of lives per conflict, due to the SIG's use of O.P.R.A.H. Technology. The SIG has been sanctioned by many nations across the world for their infamous war crimes committed in every war they have be involved in. The amount of ferocious actions by the SIG is mainly due to how the Soncese people originated from a line of clones, causing their concept of life to be more transactional and less valuable, leading to them brutally murdering their enemies, such as in the "Mann Co Raids of 1902" or the "Sakhalin Wars of 1934".

## Early History

The island now called Sonic Island used to be known as "Lethos" and was inhabited by the "Lethonians" who physically could be characterized as green skinny creatures with large bulbous eyes, felt-like skin, and frog-like snouts. These creatures frequently traded with the neighboring Americans (Of Clay's America, not the USA) and were known for their massive Bucket Hat shaped temples where they prayed to their lord "Grabadabajaba".

Around the year 1514, American Scientist Yuji Knocker was vacationing at his off shore laboratory on Lethos, experimenting with "Sonic Technology", a type of technology Knocker pioneered himself. It involved using a special type of ink made from Mahanandi River Valley Tree Nuts, mixed with Goblonium. The ink could be used to draw pictures that seemed to be able to move partially. Yuji had only used this ink on paper up until that point. His associate, Naoto Ohshima, secretly stole a sample of the Sonic Ink, intending to use it to write a biopic about Robin Williams with it. However, Marshall, his pet hedgehog, happened crawl up his 70's beegee's pants as he was walking over to his writing desk, causing Naoto to trip and drop the ink. The ink splashed on Naoto and Marshall, and the effects were nothing short of horrific. Naoto's arm began to morph, leaving his body seemingly by magic. The hand grabbed Marshall and absorbed his juju. Then the hand turned blue, grew arms, and a large bulbous head. The strange creature quickly crawled away before Naoto could process what had happened.

Naoto quickly rushed to his friend Yuji and informed him of what had happened. The two hopped in their Jailbreak Buggy and drove off into the Lethonian jungles to try and capture the creature before it caused potential ecological damage. After 23 hours of searching through the jungle, the two finally located the blue creature. It had not facial features besides one giant eye. It stood on two legs and had spindly arms. Yuji attempted to use his jellyfish net to capture the creature, but it spat elephant acid at the net, destroying it. Startled by this, Naoto shouted "Sono kuso ttare no nezumi, watashitachi wa sore o koroshite, sore o iesu Kirisuto no shichū ni kaenakereba narimasen." or "That damn rat, we must kill it and turn it into a stew of Jesus Christ".

Naoto then proceeded to pull out a Black Yoshi Caliber Glock and fired 15 rounds at the creature. 4 of the bullets struck it's head and it was immobilized. The two walked over tot he creature, attempting to pick up the corpse, but found that it immediately began splitting apart into 3 pieces. The head remained blue, and began growing a new body. The limbs turned yellow and began morphing into a similar creature, and the torso turned red and grew legs. The three horrors crawled away into the bushes to the two mens' shock. Tired out, they decided to continue their hunt the next day and returned to their lab for rest.

The following day, the two men put on their elephant armor and got back in their Jailbreak Buggy and started searching once again. It didn't take long for them to notice a massive plume of smoke in the distance that seemed to be in the direction of the Lethonian village of San Francisco. Upon further inspection, the two found the entire village had been ransacked, and that all the people were missing. Yuji and Naoto searched the entire area, wielding their Mahanandi River Valley AR15s with elephant style bullets. Upon searching the town hall, they found that in the council room, a massive nest had been created. Small colorful creatures crawled along the walls, ripping at the walls to add to their nest. Yuji and Naoto attempted to exterminate the creatures but found that the same asexual reproduction that had occurred the previous day was the only result, so they decided to immediately leave and alert the Clay's America government.

Returning to their lab, they found that the Clay's American forces had arrived already. General Masahiro Sakurai ordered for the two scientist's to be arrested and held inside the lab until further notice. Clay's American forces arrived in the thousands on the shores of Lethos and began sectioning off the island to locate the creatures. Inside the lab, General Sakurai interviewed the two scientists to figure out exactly what happened. After being told the story, General Sakurai told his soldiers to equip their "O.P.R.A.H. Rifles" which utilized the recently invented O.P.R.A.H. technology. These powerful energy rifles did not use bullets, but rather added so much energy to the target that they came apart on a molecular level. These rifles were capable of destroying the creatures as the soldier's later found out upon firing at them.
