Sonic 2006 (Various x Reader)

~ Chapter 1 ~

Before this, in an unknown city, sometime in the far future. There are ruins of buildings everywhere. The white hedgehog is flying around the city slowly, looking for any flames. The ground below has become nothing but a sea of lava, with the occasional rumble of thunder and flash of lightning from the storm clouds covering the sky.

"This world was devastated before I was born. A harsh, bleak place, where we live in eternal darkness. Life is a struggle, and people live without hope. How did this happen? No one will answer me directly. But they always point... to the flames."

A tornado of flames swirl up before him. He uses a psychokinetic blast to clear the flames in front of him and they die away.

"These flames. They burn away at my world destroying everything in their path. They come from a eternal life form we cannot truly defeat. The Flames of Disaster known as Iblis."

"Silver!"

Silver turned to see a lavender and violet-furred, anthropomorphic cat with gold eyes, a small black nose and a white-furred muzzle. She has triangular ears with peach colored canals and a long tail with the end frayed and dark purple. Her fur is longer on each side of her head and sweeps slightly upwards.

"Blaze, what's wrong?"

"He's appeared again!"

Looking in the direction Blaze pointed in with an angry scowl, Silver flies away as Blaze jumps quickly from roof to roof to follow him. Silver and Blaze have gone through Crisis City and are running right up to confront Iblis, who emerges as a fiery golem monster ready to attack with a roar. They are stunned but look up.

"Come on, you monster!"

Iblis moves on and roars in the flames.

A pit of molten lava is shown where Iblis once stood following his defeat by Silver.

"Looks like we stopped it for now." Blaze said.

"But, it'll just rise up from its ashes again."

Silver hits a brick wall with his fist in frustration.

"What's the point of all this? It'll never end."

"Calm down, Silver."

"Then tell me what we should do. How can we completely destroy Iblis?"

Blaze is unsure what to do and closes her eyes to think. All of a sudden a dark voice is heard.

"...By knowing the truth, of course."

Silver looks around to see who spoke, and he and Blaze look up at black hedgehog, on top of a ruined building. He appeared almost identical to Shadow the Hedgehog, aside from having green eyes with slit pupils, a pale-skinned muzzle with no mouth, and the fact that everything that is red on Shadow is a greyish-blue. Just like Shadow, he had rings on his wrists and ankles.

"Just as a flower comes from a seed, or a chicken comes from an egg, everything has an origin. You need to find the being originally responsible for this catastrophe."

"Is that really the answer to our problem?"

Silver points at him.

"Tell me, do you know who it is?"

The twin-like Shadow looks at Silver with a sinister look in his eyes.
