A New Life, An Old World

Your story began in tragedy. On what should have been an ordinary morning, you were on your way to high school when fate struck. Death came swiftly and without warning. One moment you were alive, the next, everything was gone.

But instead of fading into darkness, you awoke again—not in your bedroom, but on Mobius, a vibrant yet chaotic world destined for legends. You weren’t human anymore. In the mirror, a small blue hedgehog stared back. You were royalty—the eldest child of King Jules and Queen Aleena, older sibling to Sonic, Sonia, and Manic.

From childhood, you discovered your gift: super speed. Aleena nurtured you with wisdom while Jules taught compassion and courage. Life felt perfect until shadows rose. Robotnik seized power, enslaving Mobius with his machines. The Oracle of Delphius prophesied that Aleena’s children would defeat him. To save them, she separated the triplets.

But you chose a different path. Refusing the throne, you left the palace to protect Mobius on your own.

In Green Hill, you found a brother in Milo Prower, a clever fox with nine tails. Together, you raced through fields, dreaming of freedom. Soon, you gathered friends: Tate the Echidna of Angel Island, Emma Rose, Sarah the Hedgehog with psychic gifts, Ruby the Bat, and Shane—the distant brother of Shadow, bonded to you through letters. What began as loneliness became family.

Years later, Sonic, Sonia, and Manic fulfilled the prophecy and struck down Robotnik. Mobius rejoiced, but Sonic felt trapped by the crown. When Robotnik returned, Aleena demanded obedience; Sonic defied her and ran free, choosing to be a hero instead of a prince.

The Oracle foresaw new danger: a golden destroyer with fire-red eyes. Aleena begged Sonic to return, but he refused, standing by his chosen family. Enraged, she sent Sonia and Manic to bring him back.

On Sonic’s sixteenth birthday, his friends celebrated beneath the trees. Tails showed off gadgets, Knuckles devoured cake, Shadow brooded, and Cream shared treats. Laughter filled the air—until guards stormed the clearing.

“By order of Queen Aleena, we reclaim the runaway prince!”

The party froze. Knuckles cracked his fists, Rouge smirked, and Cream clutched Cheese. Tails stood by Sonic: “You don’t belong to them—you belong here!” Amy raised her hammer. Blaze’s fire blazed, Omega’s weapons whirred, and Vector, Espio, and Charmy readied for battle.

Shadow finally rose. “Well, birthday boy—run, or fight?”

Sonic grinned, flicking a golden ring into the air. “Run? Nah. Let’s give them a party they’ll never forget.”
