Disclaimer: I do not own Sega's version of Sonic the Hedgehog! But I own mine.

This story was written in 2004, the year of my eleven/twelve year old childhood, making this my very first story. It's rather out-dated, yet I have trimmed a few split ends. However, I couldn't edit this without changing the basics, so I preferred not to change them drastically, but to improve the writing style and initial depth, so bear with the story's attitude. The story's timeline is after SA2 and it's meant to be a taaaad dark, but it's suitable for PG-13.

Now, before you continue, please tolerate the beginning...
