Sonic was seen on a beach, relaxing while holding a chili dog in his hands. "This was just the vacation I needed. Summer time is the best time to relax and chill! Chillax!" Sonic took a huge bite of his food until he was interrupted. "Sonic" yelled a voice from afar. Sonic looked behind him and saw Tails running towards him. "Tails! Wassup?" "You have to see this!" Sonic got up and saw the device that Tails had in his hand. "Woah! What happened!?" "Volcanoes from all around the world have started to erupt very aggressively with no explanation, causing Chaos all around the world! I need you to collect lava samples for me so I can figure out what's going on. here!" Tails hand Sonic 5 bottles. Sonic takes them. "Well! What are we waiting for? We gotta go!" Sonic ate the remaining chili dog he had in his hand and left the area. Sonic ran through Green Hill to somewhere else. Hopefully finding one of the Volcanoes. Sonic ran to a red mist he saw in the distance. Sonic kept on running until he got frozen in place. "AH!" yelled Sonic as he fell on the ground. Sonic looked back. He felt a cold pain down his leg, WHen he looked back at it he saw his foot Frozen and covered in ice.. Sonic tried to break free but he was practically glued to the ground. "Haha, very funny. Mind letting me free now?" Another blue hedgehog jumps down in front of Sonic. "Hey Cyro. mind telling what's up?" "You're not going anywhere without me. Not what after Tails told me." "Right, anything related to Fire, sound, Electricity, Gravity and Water may be a sign of your long lost siblings i know. Actually. What does gravity have to do with you?"
Cyro destroyed the ice on Sonic's foot ignoring what he said and then stepped back a bit. "Alright! Since you insist on coming with me! I suggest you try searching in or at a very aggressive volcano that's about to blow up!" "I'm sticking with you, you're too careless to do anything right. Besides, you're my best bet for anything right now so I have no other choice." "Have you been hanging out with Shadow or something? Never mind. Let's go!" Sonic blasted off running and Cyro followed behind him skating in the blades at the bottom of his boots. "You know. I don't know much about you besides the fact you just want the Chaos Emeralds, and to find your Siblings. So why not tell me more about you? Like, what you you do in your free time? Do you have a hobby?" Asked Sonic hoping to spark a small conversation but Cyro just ignored Sonic and kept looking ahead. "Ugh. this is going to be a long journey." Whispered Sonic to himself as he looked up. Sonic saw a strange red glow in the sky as he looked up and slowed down for a second. Cyro noticed Sonic slowing down a bit. "Hurry up. Why are you slowing down?" Sonic stopped running and pointed at the red glow in the sky which seemed to be getting brighter and brighter.
"Look. over there." Cyro stopped and looked up. He saw a strange red orb in the sky which seemed to be getting brighter and brighter. "What do you think that is?" Asks Sonic "It's obviously not normal." The red glow grew very bright as it left a smoke trail. The glow started to fall to the ground at Sonic and Cyro. "hold up. I think that's." Sonic was interrupted as a red smoldering lava boulder landed next to him. "One of the volcano eruptions." Said Cyro. The red smoldering rock in the sky broke into smaller pieces and the fragments started falling in the area. "Watch out!" yelled Sonic as one fragment almost landed on him as he dodged it. Cyro jumped back as more fragments fell. One was about to hit him but he sliced through it with his Ice Kitana and the rock was split into two. "Not bad." Said Cyro as he looked at his blades. Sonic was around the area dodging the falling fire rocks and Spin Dashing through them. "How close are we to a volcano?" Asked Sonic hoping to find from where the red smoldering lava rocks were coming from. Cyro ignores Sonic and continues to destroy the flaming rocks. Cyro scans the sky to see if he could find where the rocks are coming from. A small red mist from afar caught his attention as there were strange orange lines emerging from the mist. "Over there." Cyro pointed. "That must be a volcano" "Well then we need to go!" Said Sonic as he prepared to launch himself at high speeds. "There's no time to waste so I'm off!" Said Sonic as he ran off to the volcano. "I said before that you're not going anywhere without me." Said Cyro but Sonic had already left. Cyro sighed before heading off to a different direction hoping to find something else. "I can't go follow him because I lost his trail. So I might as well go and search for my own clues." Said Cyro as he left the area.
Everything switched back to Sonic and then the Ground started shaking. "Huh?" Sonic looked up in the air and saw lava spewing out of a volcano and heading down as a river over a small town. "The town is in the way of the Eruption. I got to go help it!" Sonic rushed over to the small town but stopped as a stream of lava rushed down in front of him. "That was close. This lava is everywhere. There's nowhere to even go with all these lava lakes." Sonic scanned the area looking for a way to get across. Sonic spotted some shiny black rocks popping out the lava lake. "Maybe that could work." Sonic jumped on one of the shiny rocks that was in front of him. He taps it. "That's quite hard. Wonder what these black shiny rock things are." Sonic jumped from one rock to another until he almost manages to get across. He slipped and fell on the rock he was standing on face down and his face centimeters from the lava. Sonic slowly stands up and regains his balance. "That was close." Sonic jumped off the rock and landed safely across and on the grass. "On the grass and now onto saving that town." He said as he boosted heading to the small town. Sonic makes it but lava was spewing from the town. "Got to go see if anyone is here." Sonic ran through the town but saw no one. Sonic jumped across all the lava rivers and lava lakes and even went to search inside some burning houses but still didn't see any signs of life.
"Am i too late? Did everyone here burn? No. There's still a lot of spots here that are safe. Maybe the town has just been evacuated." Sonic jumped on a large rock just tall enough for Tim to see the entire town from above and to scan it. Sonic looked around but saw nothing but a small town slowly getting consumed by lava. "There is absolutely no one or nothing left here. Maybe the town was just abandoned." Sonic was about to jump off the rock and leave but there was nowhere to jump to. "Oh." Said Sonic as he tried to look for a way off. "Nowhere to go. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea." The rock that Sonic was standing on shook a bit. Sonic looked down and saw that it was sinking in the lava. "That's not good.now how do I get off of here?" Sonic looked around him but there was nowhere for him to go. "Ugh! Come on! There has to be a way!" Sonic looked below him and the rock was almost consumed in lava. "Wait! I got an idea! This is risky but you can't live life without risks!" Sonic jumped high in the air and then Spin dashed the rock below that he was standing on. Pieces of the rock want flying everywhere in all directions. Sonic immediately aimed his Spin Dash on the rock debris and stood on it as it fell. Sonic Spin dashed to another one of the Rock pieces and repeated the process over and over until he got to the last flying rock piece which was barely above the lava. "Last one! But I'm still so far from safety!" Sonic jumped off and went as far as possible. Sonic was a few feet away from land which was made of stone but also a few feet above the lava. "Alright! Let's go!" Sonic Spin Dashed his way to the stone land and boosted himself. He hit land and went rolling forward until he hit a boulder. "That was fun. Never doing that again. Oh no." Said Sonic as he felt nauseous.
Sonic shook it off and ran to another direction where another volcano was. One that wasn't active yet. Everything faded away and then faded into Cyro who was in an area which had obsidian and magma everywhere. Cyro walked across the obsidian avoiding the cracks made of liquid hot magma. "Hm. There's no Volcanoes nearby at all. And yet. There's magma and obsidian here." He said as he crouched down to inspect the shining hardened black rocks. Cyro picked a piece up and put it away saving it for something that might be useful later. He looks at the magma cracks and slowly starts to cool it down as he freezes it with cold ice at extremely cold temperatures. He takes his Ice Kitanas and slices out a piece of the frozen Magma. "Don't know how this works. But Sonic's fox friend might help with this." Said Cyro as he tried to remember Tails name. Cyro stood up and looked up at the sky and saw it turning into an orange and reddish color. "Hm. not good. Maybe that'll help me figure all this out." Cyro left the area heading for the red part of the sky. "If I recall correctly that's where Sonic went. What the hell did he do?" Cyro stopped as he encountered a large mountain. The Mountain was blocking the way to the red, orange part of the sky. "No other way. Forced to go up the mountain." Cyro took a step on the mountain and the area shook instantly. Cracks started opening where Cyro stepped on. Cyro jumped back and lava started spewing out of where he was at.
"Another Volcano. But this one looked like a regular mountain. How does it look so hidden?" Cyro looked up at the exploding volcano eruption. "I can't get it over now. And going around would be too much work and very time consuming. Gotta be another way." Cyro inspected the area and got an idea as he looked at the ground. "Risky but it could work." Cyro curled up his fist and it was slowly being covered in Ice. Cyro punched the ground and a small tunnel that was roofed with ice was formed. "If i can't go over or around then i might as well go under." Cyro skated through the underground tunnel he made. Cyro stopped as he saw an orange light up ahead in the dark icy tunnel. "Hm." Cyro slowly approached the light. As the light got brighter and brighter Cyro formed a shield made of ice for protection. He made it to the end of the tunnel and found himself in a lava cave. "A cave under an active volcano. Something I thought I'd never see." Cyro walked to the edge of the rock he was on and looked down at the burning magma and lava below him. "It's extremely hot in here. Maybe there's an exit on the other side of this cave or somewhere else around here." Cyro tried forming an ice bridge to get across the lava pools but it started to slowly melt as soon as it was finished. "It's too hot in here to form any ice. But I can do something else." Cyro blasted ice around the cave and the lava around him slowly started to cool down. After a few minutes the lava cooling down there was a safe obsidian bridge with basalt around too. Cyro walked across and carefully looked around the area to see if he could find any exits. "Nothing. Guess I'll have to make my own exit." Cyro formed another icy fist and carefully punched another frozen tunnel in a spot where he wouldn't stir up any more volcanic activity. "There we go." Just as Cyro was ready to head through the tunnel he got shot by a Fireball that came from a distance in the dark.
The fireball knocked him back very far and fast. Cyro sat up and looked at the burn wound on his right hip. "Where the hell did that come from?" Cyro carefully looked around to see where the attack came from. But he saw nothing. "Best to keep my guard up." Cyro backed into the tunnel cautiously looking around to make sure he wouldn't get hit again. Cyro sealed up the tunnel then continued on his way out. After a few minutes of walking in the dark he made it out the otherside. "Finally made it out. But. what was that?" Cyro looks down at the burn wound still on him. He started to cover it in a bit of ice and a few moments later it was gone. "Whatever that was. I have a feeling I'm being stalked." Cyro looks back at the tunnel. He closes the entrance with some ice spikes and then leaves towards the red part in the sky. The ice that covered up the Entrance turned orange and started to melt. Everything switches back to Sonic. "Phew. I'm finally here. Collecting those lava samples are a pain. I have two bottles filled! 3 more to go." Sonic stared at the giant gray volcano and then looked up at the red sky then back at the Volcano. "You know. That giant gray volcano with a bunch of smoke coming out of it really reminds me a lot of the Volcano back at Chaos Island." "Chaos Island?" "AGHH!"
Said a voice behind Sonic before Sonic Jumped back startled. Sonic calmed down when he saw Cyro. "Oh it's you. You scared me. Um. Chaos Island is a. well. Island. It's a long journey and story." "Forget I asked. I thought I'd find you back here." "How?" "Giant red sky in the area. This is where you went when we split up an hour ago." "Oh. Um. Are you okay?" Sonic said as he pointed at some ice and a very small visible bruise on Cyros hip. "I was exploring inside one of the volcanoes. All of a Sudden i get hit by a fireball from a ledge above me." "It was probably some random activity that was happening inside." "No. it felt. targeted. It didn't feel like it was random." "You're probably paranoid. Now. here." Sonic tossed one of the empty bottles at Cyro. "We got some lava collecting to do." Cyro catches the bottle and stares at it. He puts it away then heads over to the Volcano. "Silent treatment again. Ok." Sonic follows behind Cyro. "The inside of these volcanoes are like cave systems. Not like a huge lava pool like you think they are." "Mind showing me how?" Asked Sonic. "Gladly" Cyro forms an ice fist and punches a tunnel under the volcano. "Huh. Nice. I wonder why you didn't punch me as hard when we first fought." "You're right. I punched you harder." Cyro went through the tunnel. "Great humor you got." Said Sonic as he also went through. They both walked through the tunnel and were greeted with giant lava falls, lava pools, strangely formed obsidian pillars and platforms. "Woah. this place looks sick!" Exclaimed Sonic. "Hm." "What's wrong?" "This place is strange. This doesn't look natural. Somethings up for sure."
"Like I said before. You're paranoid. These are just volcanic eruptions. It's not like there's gonna be a pattern." The obsidian rock that Sonic stood on broke into multiple shards and Sonic fell. "Ow!" Cyro picked up one of the obsidian shards and put it away. "Could be useful for later." "You're not gonna help me up?" "No" Sonic got up and looked around. "Why don't we split up again and then meet here in an hour?" Suggested Sonic. The volcano shook a bit. "Uh. 30 Minutes?" "Don't get yourself burned alive" Said Cyro as he left, jumping off from an Obsidian pillar. "Right you do you." Sonic looked beside him. He saw a small orange drop fall from the ceiling. As the drop fell more fell after it forming a small lava puddle. "Huh. Nice!" Said Sonic as he opened up the bottle and placed it right where the drops were falling filling the bottle up. "Just gotta wait a bit for this to fill up then i'll have one bottle left to fill for Tails. Then there's the one I gave Cyro." Sonic looks around as he holds the bottle under the lava drops. "This place seems like more than just the inside of a volcano. Like Come on! We got the awesome structures of obsidian here! And some very cool lava flows if you ask me!" Said Sonic as he admired the strange unnatural volcanic terrain. The bottle beeps and Sonic closes it. "There we go! 3 bottles filled up!" He said as he closed it. "Now. Where should I go?" Sonic looked in all directions to see where he should head. "This Place looks confusing. I'll go over there!" Sonic jumped off the obsidian platform he was on and slid down some basalt. He jumped up and landed on an obsidian pillar and then another as he jumped off.
"This is fun! Wonder what this place is called!" Sonic stood on a pillar and looked around. "Huh. nothing. Also wonder where Cyro went." The pillar Sonic stood on started to crumble and fall. "Not again!" Sonic jumped off it and landed on some rocky mold. The lava pool started to erupt and shoot up into the air. "Looks like this volcano is erupting. I need to find Cyro and warn him." Sonic boosted off and jumped over a magma pool.the area shook more and rocks were starting to fall from the roof. Sonic stopped and looked up. "Come on!" Sonic Spin dashed through a rock and shattered it to pieces. Sonic launched his way into a small cavern inside the upper walls. Sonic stood up as he brushed some dust off and looked outside the cave. The area crumbled apart and the roof outside the small cave Sonic was in started to crack. "The roof is cracking open. Maybe I could escape from there!" Sonic prepared for a jump when the roof cracked but when it did a huge lava fall fell. Sonic got jump scared and fell back as the lava from the roof covered the cave entrance trapping Sonic in. Sonic got up dazed. "Well. So much for making an escape through the roof. Now I'm Trapped. At Least it's warm and cozy in here. And bright. But how do I get out of here?" Sonic looked behind him and saw that the cave went deeper. "Uh. that'll work." Sonic ran off into the deep cave and quickly stopped as he couldn't see anything in the pitch black dark. "I can't see!" Exclaimed Sonic. A faint orange light slowly fades in from the distance. "Thanks. Waitamin." Said Sonic quickly. The orange light blasted at Sonic and Sonic went flying back at the cave entrance blocked by flowing lava.
Sonic laid face up on the ground and Sonic eyes widened as lava fell above his head and some next to his face. "Oh sweet Chaos that was close. One more inch and would have lost the top of my head" he Said as he got up. Sonic felt something hot on one of his quills. He touches it and feels fire. His quill was burning. "HOT! No! No! No!" Sonic frantically Spin Dashed in place to put out the fire. "Make that half a centimeter and my face would have been gone" Sonic looked ahead back at the dark cave. "What was that? What hit me? Agh." Sonic groaned as he felt a pain on his stomach. He looked down and saw his stomach burned. Sonic slightly touches his burn wound and immediately flinches. "Agh! That hurts." Sonic boosted his way back at the dark cave he got blasted from but Spin Dashing in case he would get attacked again. "Maybe Cyro was right. Those strange fire attacks don't seem like a coincidence." Thought Sonic to himself. Sonic Spin Dashed through a boulder and shot out of the ground. "Ouch. I was not meant to do that. At least that accident got me out of that volcano, it was starting to get extremely hot in there. Wait but. I need to Get Cryo. he has two of the bottle samples. Tails needs all five of them. Great, now I gotta go back. Sonic boosts back into the cave and stops at the lava flooded entrance. "Right, forget about that. How do i get through?" Sonic thought for a moment and looked around. He saw the wall next to him had some cracks. "Maybe I can destroy that cracked wall. But what if it has lava behind it?"
Sonic was hesitant. "Maybe I could find another way in. but it could take a long time. Ugh I hate making decisions!" Sonic Spin Dashed and blasted through the cracked wall. He landed on a rock in the middle of lava. "Yes! I'm safe. For now." Sonic looked around him. He looked behind the walls he blasted out from. Sonic looked back ahead and saw a strange grassy area." Hold on. Grass? In a volcano?!" Sonic jumped rock from rock and landed in the grassy area. "How has this spot not burned away or caught on fire?" Sonic crouched down and picked up some of the grass. "I Gotta get this back to Tails. Only he can figure out what this is and why it's here." Sonic put the grass sample away. Sonic quickly senses something behind him. Sonic sidesteps to the left and the moment he moves a large flaming beam of magma shot past next him right where he was standing. "Woah!" Sonic looked behind him and saw a flaming figure in the dark. "Am I seeing things?" Sonic rubbed his eyes and the flaming figure disappeared. "Maybe I was. But. What was that magma beam shot?" Sonic decided to go explore around the cave and look for Cyro to try and get him to come back to Tails lab if he's still in the lava cave." Sonic searched for an Hour before giving up. "Where is he?! I've been going around in circles! Wait. I was supposed to meet him back where we started 40 minutes ago!" Sonic rushed back to where he split up with Cyro but couldn't get back. "This place is a maze. I can't find my way back. Am I lost?" Sonic stood there staring at the erupting Volcanic area. "Where do I escape from? Where do I go? Ugh why did I do this?"
Behind Sonic a strange heat started to form. Small flames started to form behind him. Sonic shivered. "Why did I shiver? In here?!" Sonic looked behind him and saw a strange hedgehog with flames form out of the fire. "What is that?" The hedgehog acted quickly and swiftly jumped side to side and launched as Sonic with a flaming fist. Sonic did have any time to react and got punched into the wall. "Owwww!" Sonic jumped off the wall and Spin Dashed at the flaming figure he saw in the distance but it disappeared when Sonic got close. "What?! He disappeared?!" Sonic quickly jumped up and onto the roof as the ground below him erupted and the flaming figure emerged again. "That was close." The figure shot out fire balls directly at Sonic. Sonic jumped off the roof and at the figure and Spin Dashed him. "Did I get him? Or it?" Sonic looked behind him and saw that the figure started to reform. "Oh come on!" The blurry Figure cloaked himself in fire and charged at Sonic. Sonic boosted while Spin dashing back at the figure to counter attack. The collision caused a huge explosion which shook up the entire cave and nearly blowing it up. Sonic falls back from the recoil and gets up. "Ugh that hurt." The ground rumbled and lava shot up into the air violently. "That might have shook the volcano up a bit." Said Sonic as he frantically tried to find a way off the basualt he landed on. A rock fell and landed on him, trapping his left leg. "Oh! Not now!" He said as he tried to escape The flaming figure who was blurry appeared in front of Sonic and charged up a fiery blast. Sonic could do nothing. The area shook in flames as the figure attacked.
Sonic opened his eyes wondering why he hasn't been burned yet. Sonic looked around him and saw a giant Ice Dome around him. He looked up front and Saw Cyro. "Second time I'm saving your sorry A-" "Ok! Can you get me out of here? And why is it so cold?!" Cyro grabs his katanas and slices through the rocks on Sonic's leg clean. "Wow. Those blades are sharp. Sliced through those rocks like paper." "Hm. I'll admit. They work better than I expected." Said Cyro as he looked down at them. The Ice dome started to turn orange. "It's burning up." Said Cyro as he charged an ice fist attack. "What are you doing?" Asked Sonic as Cyro prepared to attack "Making a safe out." Cyro punched the dome and lava shot off of the dome as it melted. The flaming figure fell back from where Cyro punched. Sonic Boosted at the figure while Cyro Charged an Ice Boost. The flaming figure jumped up and dodged Sonic but Couldn't dodge Cyro. The figure fell back and landed in the Wall. more lava and magma spew up. Cyro jumped his way through the lava and Blasted the Figure while he was still dazed in the wall. The Explosion cooled off all the lava. "Woah! You might wanna chill there for a sec?" Said Sonic as he tapped the cold and ice covered obsidian with his foot. Cyro jumped back and shot a giant ice spike out the ground at the Figure but the figure jumped off the wall and dodged. Cyro tossed an Ice Spike at the figure as he landed. It went straight into his stomach. Smoke was coming out where it stabbed him and loud sizzling was heard. He took the Spike out and melted it. The Figure became more clear as the fire around him making him blurry faded away. The figure formed and stood there clear as day.
"Oh my god." Said Sonic as he stood up and looked back. "He looks exactly like you, Cyro." Cyro Formed his katanas and pointed one at the flaming red hedgehog. "I don't know who you are. But you made a mistake trapping me in that crumbling magma hole." Cyro charged at the Flaming hedgehog who looked identical to him. The hedgehog's hand burned into harsh fire and got ready to punch Cyro. As soon as Cyro got close he swung his flaming punch but Cyro slid under him and blasted him into the roof with a giant ice pillar. Cyro jumped up at the roof and blasted the hedgehog to the ground with an icy punch. The hedgehog got up from the ground hurt. He ignited his fists on fire and shot a fire chain at Cyro. Sonic Spin Dashed the hedgehog which made him lose the fire chains as they disappeared. Cyro jumped off from the roof and swung his katanas at the Hedgehog. But the hedgehog reacted quickly and out of nowhere a fire flashed in his hands and there was a dagger he was holding. He swung the dagger at Cyro which blocked his attack. The hedgehog jumped back and shot out a fiery beam from his hands at Sonic. Sonic jumped up and did a Sonic boom attack. The flaming hedgehog was knocked back into the wall. Sonic's attack was too loud and powerful that the entire volcano started to erupt. The frozen obsidian started to burst lava out and melt. "That attack did it! That one attack was enough to make this volcano explode." Sonic landed. "My bad. But where do we escape from?!" "Follow me! I made an exit earlier!"
Cyro skates off into a hole nearby and Sonic follows behind. The flaming hedgehog jumped from the wall. He stared at Sonic and Cyro as they escaped. "They have an Emerald. Guess that means I'll have to hunt them down later." he Said as he stared down at a radar he had in his hands. The radar had a blue glow which moved quickly out the volcano and a red glow that was nearby. "This place is about to explode. I should get out." The flaming hedgehog disappeared leaving nothing but flames behind. The area erupted violently. Sonic and Cyro were seen outside the volcano. They stopped and looked back at it as the ground shook intensely. The volcano erupted and lava shot out miles into the air as lava rivers started to form and seep down. "That was a close one." Said Sonic. Cyro tossed something at Sonic and hit his face. "Ouch! What was that for?" Sonic looked down at what fell and saw two bottles. One with lava and one with a strange fire moving inside it. "Hey. These are the two bottles I gave you for samples." Said Sonic as he picked them up and placed them with the others. "Why is this one all strange? It has this weird flame moving inside it." "That one has a sample from the hedgehog we just fought." "How did you get this?! When?!" "I fought him before you encountered him. I managed to get a sample from him." "Let's get back to Tails lab. He'll be able to analyze all this. And maybe figure out who that was with this sample you got." Sonic and Cyro make their way back to Green Hill and to Tails lab an hour later. Sonic enters His lab with five bottles with lava in his hands."Tails! I'm back!"
Tails looked behind him and Saw Sonic with Cyro standing behind him. "Sonic! your back. I was starting to wonder when you would be back. And I see you have Cyro and the samples." "Yeah he helped me. A lot." Sonic hands Tails the bottle samples. When Tails grabbed them his eyes widened. "Sonic! Are you ok?!" "uh. Yeah. Why?" Your stomach. You have a really nasty burn. You know when Amy sees this she's going to freak out And Knuckles is going to most likely scold you." "Relax. I just fought someone." "Who?" "A fire hedgehog who looks very identical to me." Said Cyro. "That bottle with an odd fire inside that's moving strangely is a sample I managed to get from him." Sonic Cyro as he pointed the bottle out to Tails. "My theory is that he's the reason for these volcanic eruptions." Tails stared at the odd flame in the bottle. "I'll research this one first then." Said tails as he went to his computer and started analyzing it. SOnic sat down in a chair. "For once I'm tired. But I wonder why he looked like you." "Can you tell me how he looked to be exact?" Asked Tails. "He looked just like Cyro! He had a mask that was exactly the same, instead of having ice on his shoulders he had fire on em, he had fire for the sole of his shoes instead of metal skates, and his quills tips were made of fire. They burned up at the end. Not frozen like his." "You werent there for it but. He had a very similar fighting style to mine." Added Cyro. "That's. All odd. Maybe." Said Tails as he turned to his computer. "What? What is it? Don't leave us hanging!" Said Sonic as he got up. "I know what to do! Give me a few moments! Mind if I get an ice sample?" Asked Tails> Cyro formed an ice rock and handed it to Tails.
Tails placed the rock in his machine alongside with the fire sample. He ran diagnostics. "I knew it!" "What'd you find?" Asked Sonic. "I used the fire sample Cyro gave me along side with the ice rock he made. I did a DNA test and there's 93.57% match! All genetics are nearly identical." "Just get to the damn point already." Said Cyro as he started getting impatient. "That fire hedgehog that you and Sonic fought that looks nearly exactly like you is one of your brothers." "Well that's a news bomb." Said Sonic. "But I do wonder. Why'd he attack you guys?" "He most likely has the same motives as I do. Get the Chaos Emeralds. Sonic has one on him right now. That's why he probably attacked us. He knew we had an Emerald." "if that's the case then why don't we give it to him?" Suggested Sonic. "I don't think that's going to help at all. He attacked you both without hesitation so it's most likely he'll do it again. Cyro needs to convince him they're on the same team and that they're siblings." Said Tails. "I don't see how we're gonna do that. We might need help. Maybe we should get Knuckles and Amy again." "I don't think we should drag them into our problems again.""Okay. Then I guess You, me and Cyro gotta deal with this. Right?" "Yep." Said Tails. Sonic looked behind him to where Cyro was standing but he was gone. "And he's gone just like that."
Said Sonic as he ran out of Tails lab to look for him. Cyro was standing on a rock looking at the volcanoes in the distance. "Is there a way to convince him? And does he really have the same motives as me?" Asked Cyro to himself as he formed his Ice Katanas and swung them. He sees strange smoke in the distance coming from a small forest. Cyro skated off towards an area in the distance that was smoking. "That could be my best lead for finding him again." a blue light speeds past Cyro. Sonic appeared running next to him. "Don't think you're leaving me behind! I'm joining whether you like it or not" Cyro rolls his eyes and."don't get in my way." Cyro skates off. Sonic follows behind. Cyro stopped as he made it to the burning forest. There was a tree with fire inside it. As if it was a type of portal. "Well that looks creepy." Said Sonic as he stared at the fire tree. "I don't want you to get in my way. So you go over there." Said Cyro as he pointed with his katana over to the south where dozens of smoldering rocks and trees were. "You want me to go over there? That place looks like a death pit." "Stop whining and shut up." Said Cyro as he skated away to the north. "Guess he still dislikes me. He'll warm up to me eventually." Sonic blasted off south to the boulders. Sonic ran over to a small hut he saw and entered it. "Looks like there's nothing here. Odd" Said Sonic as he exited the hut. Small flames started to form behind Sonic. "What?" A flaming hedgehog appeared and hit Sonic with a fiery and deadly punch."WOAH! It's you again. Alright! Let's have our Rematch!" Sonic charged a Spin Dash and attacked at full force.
End Of Chapter 1
