You remember the moment you died. Not the pain or fear—just the stillness, the quiet as everything faded to black. You thought that was the end.

But it wasn’t.

You awoke, reborn… in a world not your own.

The sky above was bluer than anything you'd ever seen. The air thrummed with vibrant, electric energy. You had been reincarnated into the world of Sonic the Hedgehog—but not as a human. Your new form was lithe, swift, furred like a Mobian. The landscape was peaceful, untouched by war or chaos. No signs of Eggman. No fleeing civilians. No destruction. You had been reborn years before the era of battles and heroes—long before Sonic’s name was known.

At first, it was overwhelming. Your body felt strange, your limbs light, your senses sharpened. You didn’t age like the others. You were stronger, quicker, and unnaturally intelligent for your age. But the moment you sprinted across the open plains of Green Hill Zone, everything made sense. The world blurred behind you. You weren’t just fast—you were lightning.

Faster than you ever imagined.

Maybe… even faster than Sonic himself.

You didn’t know how or why, but the energy of this world—its Chaos—was a part of you now. You trained quietly, living in the wild edges of Mobius. You remained hidden, learning, running, growing. Three peaceful years passed. You heard whispers of special children being born across Mobius. One name stood out:

Sonic.

You hadn’t planned to seek him out. But fate did.

One bright afternoon, you were running through the Green Hills forest—free, alive—when you slammed into something moving just as fast as you. You both tumbled through the grass, startled. When you sat up, you saw a small blue hedgehog blinking at you in awe.

Sonic. Just three years old.

“You’re fast,” he whispered, breathless, green eyes wide. “Like me.”

You smiled. So did he.

From then on, you raced together in secret. He returned again and again, giggling, stumbling, racing to catch up to you. You watched him grow—his joy, his stubbornness, his spark. He had no one else, and you became his guide, his protector, his teacher.

Over time, you became something more.

You became his mom.

Not by blood, but by bond. He called you “Mom” one night after an exhausting run, curling against you beneath a canopy of stars. That moment changed everything.

The years rolled on. Sonic grew into the brave, reckless hero the world would come to love. He met Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and others. They became his team, his chosen family. And you? You stayed in the background—his secret. Not out of shame, but because he didn’t know how to explain you. How could he tell them about the mysterious figure who raised him in the shadows, faster than even he was?

To the world, you were a phantom.

To Sonic, you were everything.

But secrets never last.

One day, a crisis struck. Dr. Eggman returned with new technology—chaotic, brutal, calculated. Sonic and his friends—Knuckles, Tails, Amy, Rouge, Omega, Blaze, Silver, Shadow, Vector, Espio, Charmy, and Cream—fought bravely… but were overwhelmed. One by one, Eggman sealed them inside glowing glass tubes, suspended in a cage of energy deep within a fortress.

He laughed, believing he'd finally won.
