Some would say that this article is inspired off of what Tak posted recently about when Sonic Interests for himstarted, and I'm not going to start an arguement with those people.
Because they would be correct.
Anyways, this is pretty much my story. Listen closely, and you'll do well on the test. (^-^)
So, the first Sonic game I ever really got into playing was Sonic Adventure 2. I may have played Sonic 3 or maybe even S&K, but I doubt it, because how in the world is a 2 year old going to play a video game? Anyways, living in a sub-mid-class family, we finally got NGC. On the god-like NGC (because I didn't know any other machine that was better) we had Luigi's Mansion (which I loved, even back then before I could understand the game at all) Nascar: Dirt to Daytona (Me and my brother never took this game seriously, but my pa did) and SA2.
My brother would play that with a half-muslum friend of his, and he leveled up his chao to great legnths. Then his chao reincarnated, and he got PISSED!
Anyways, we got generic games like Incredibles and some other ones, but I later got Sonic Heroes. I was awesome... for the first couple weeks of playing it. Then the switching and complicated gameplay got kind of bad to the average 6 year old.
I went to one of my Uncles' house to stay for about a month. There, he had internet, and I looked up some photos of Tails and a newly found couple on Sonic X: Tails X Cosmo, which I would later find out to be also known as Taismo. Of course, this was after I had discovered Sonic X of 4KidsTV. My mother added internet to the house, and I was all set to continue my search.
We didn't buy another Sonic game for YEARS!
Our NGC broke down, and we borrowed one from my brother's friend, realizing that he already had an NW.
Then, tragedy broke out. My mother had enough of my father's abusive ways. She filed out a case, and took custody of me and my brother, and we moved back to Puerto Rico. And to this day, even after the case was settled, I still have a wondering question in my head: does my mother really have 100% custody over me, or is it only 50%, which would mean that my mother had lied to me? At this point, I was about 11.
Before we left, we gave back my brother's friend's NGC to my brother's friend, and we were off. If you ever want to fly a plane as transport, fly with JetBlue. You'll love it.
Anyways, years went by, and my brother and I knew that we needed a system to play with. So, we got ourselves a PS2. So Sonic games on that sadly, but for some reason, I got into a liking for writing.
When we moved back to the states, we brought along our PS2, and a newly recieved console known as the NDSi. I loved it. I then got Sonic and All-Stars Racing on the NDS. It sort of lit a dying flame back up again, but not much.
Then, I got a 3DS (which would later be broken due to water damage). Soon after, we (as in me and my brother) walked into a GameStop (since our custumary EBGames was bought over long ago) and there, in the 3DS section stood a fresh copy of Sonic Generations. Memories of Sonic Adventure 2 came back, and I compelled my brother to buy it.
It changed me.
It lit a flame back up that had been dead long ago. I jumped back into the Sonic franchise. Hell, I even tried to pull of a History Fair project based off SEGA (guess who was thei turning point.) But even through all this "Sonic", I never lost sight that my favorite character was Tails.
8th grade came. My science yteacher suggested I should read a book called Gone which was a part of the Gone series (go figure). I read the book.
It. Was. Amazing.
Now, if you haven't read the book, here's a general gist of what's going on. Something happens in the nuclear powerplant of a city that sourands the city in an inpenetrable dome that's exactly, infalliblly 20 miles in diameter in all degress of the x, y, and z axieses. This dome makes everyone who is above or at the age of 15 ejected from the dome area. Also, this dome, for some strange reason (which is actually explained) give some of the children left in the dome abilities. But, with doubt of escape creeping in, descisions have to be made. Leaders have to be placed. And the old saying "they're just kids" is no longer applicable.
Now, once you read that book, you may get an idea that my main 6 fan characetrs are based off some of the characters in Gone, though with switched personalities or tweaked powered, or both.
Originally, these were the names of my fancharacters:
Noctus- Skylar
Sanae- Sonia
Gatage- William
Menae- Naiomy
Cooro- Albert
Tenemae-
Notice that Tenemae doesn't have a previous name? That's because the character which she was mainly based off, much like the other characters were based off other friends of mine, and that friend of mine fdid not have a middle name, or anything that I could pull off the top of my head. So, I switched to Latin conglomerates, and so far, the names have come out pretty good. The name Leudros was part of a REALLY long proccess of translation, but I can tell you that it came from "light" and "dark". I don't remember the root words for the names of my characters.
After several visits to moving sessions, we lost the internet at my house. So, I had to resort to the new complex's office' internet to get my homework done (and mostly go on Facebook, which I would grow bored of later.) I eventually found this site called sonicsatam.com/forums (Copy-paste the address if you want to.). The site was awesome, but the fact of the matter was that the people there talked more about the comics and TV shpows, two things that I could't relate to. So, I moved on to this site. This site is dynamic, and I love that.
I then got Sonic Generation for the console, and Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed, both for the PS3. They were both awesome. With this, I got interested into the classics. We got a copy of Sonic Ultimate Genesis Collection. Now, this isn't what I normally would have wanted, but meh, 6 well known Sonic titles work for me. Also, some of the other titles are pretty good too, like the Streets of Rage trilogy and Ristar.
Now, I still have a lot to learn. I wish I could have been those luck enough to read the comic books. I wish I was able to watch the TV shows. I wish I was alive and breathing and able to play a videogame when Sonic The Hedgehog ('91) came out. I wish I had good memory, and I wish I didn't have to go through what I did in my life.
But, I can't do any of that. And God knows when I ever will be ever to do any of that. I do know that SEGA is one of those companies that loves their fan base and actuially, you know, CARES about us (just shoving Sonic '06 to the side for a minute...). I remeber hearing about a fanfilm that was posted on yourtube that was based off a Ninetendo game. It was later torn down due to "copyright" issues. A fan film was posted based on SEGA's very own JetSet Radio. SEGA loved it, and thought it was hilarious (it was meant to be a comedy.) So, I can understand SEGA sending back free issues for Tak to read at his leisure.
Sadly, I'm not that into writing at the moment. My mother took away my computer rights, presumably for life, so I can't type anything. I would write on paper, but the editing... it's just too much. You see, I never plan my stories, so a lot, A LOT get's changed when it's a one path story. I don't even know if SEGA will still send back comic issues.
I don't really know how to end this article, honestly. But, I guess a bad footer is better than no footer.
Because they would be correct.

He covered my mouth with his hand. "Shh i hear something".he pulled out his sword and held it back. The five gurads came out holding some bluue long haired guy. He came down and circled Marcos and me. Blue guy said"This calls for one thing... Celebaration."Well, aparrently his name was jess,prince jess aqua."so your from the capitial"he asked."yes, i left because it was boring and i didnt belong there."
