Miracle Lake - A Matter of...

[Alien-Child]

"Deja-Vu!" It was like seeing a news report about one of Sonic's famous battles with Eggman.

[Chibi-Cosmo]

If Sonic is my brother... and she's meant to be OUR ancestor... please don't let that wreckless attitude be genetic onto me!

"Oh if you think that was crazy..."

And the scene faded right back to Knothole with Aleena approaching a yellow echidna. Smirking, Aleena held up a bag of clothes for her... "Hey Jan! I was out shopping, and check what I got for you."


Jan was busy reading a manga they recently stole (not really reading, she couldn't understand kanji, more of just looking) and her eyes widened at those words.



"Hey, its the echidna girl!"

Widening his eyes, "Yeah!! That's...that's her!!"


"Hee hee!!" before Jan would escape, Aleena snatched her arm and dragged her into her hut, nearby. "Lets go!!"


"Yeah...uh...that would be your ancestor, Knuckles. Janelle-Li, or Jan for short."

His blood felt like it drained down from him when he heard Aleena's explanation.




"Eep!" She wheelped as she was dragged.



"So, is she a ghost too?"


"Not quite... I think... you notice something on her neck the other day?"


"Uh, no..." When he was Ashura, he wasn't very focus, he was angry a lot though, Sonia and Tiara in trouble, Nazo is alive... it was hard for him to keep things together.

[YolkaEd]

"...hm." Metal chuckled, as he watched the past Aleena pull away Jan. "This is ripe for physical comedy."



Meanwhile, Tails was awed. Not only did they see Sally's ancestor, but also Knuckles'. Seeing them made him wonder... ...maybe we can catch a glimpse of my ancestors, too? he thought.

"Knuckles' ancestor..." He muttered, glancing at the red echidna.



"...." This was getting way too strange. Aleena's life almost mirrors to theirs. Apperiantly, Aleena, being Sonic's ancestor, knew HIS ancestor...



He turned back to Aleena. "So, you have Eggman's ancestor... Sally's ancestor.... Knuckles' ancestor... Do you know Tails' ancestor?



"Well...."

Snapping her fingers, "I do know..."



"....." He clenched his fists...

In the flashback, Rob charged down the Macy's rooftop with the trail of bullets following, luckily missing him. From on the roof, Rob could see the approaching gun-copter in the distance.



"That seems rather unfortunate; I mustn't allow it to arrive," he murmured to himself, while taking a shot at the copter.



"Looks like Robin Hood... I've read some of those stories..."



"Rob o the Hedge...who is Amy's ancestor."



"UH?!?!?!" this took her by surprise, completely. She kinda didn't expect this to involve her.



"You've got to be kidding me..." He sighed.

[Alien-Child]

"Any more ancestors?"


"Well, this was really the core group kid."

[Chibi-Cosmo]

With a squinted eye, she stared at Tonic. "Manic, who is this guy?"


"Some ghost who's following me."


"So... we're going to see you is these vision soon?"


"I doubt it... but who knows." Tonic shrugged.

[AnT]

"Well..." She wanted to show something about Tails...but she didn't like lying to him too. Though she may have to show him the truth later on, but she planned on talking to Sonic about it, first. So for now, stretching the truth, she will.



"Hmph!" Standing on top of a rocky hill, over a forest, with a mountain in the background that had four heads carved into it... "You know, it's kinda hard to ignore someone who makes waaaay too much noise."

Standing across from her looked like a scowling red fox. Her hair, a bit spiky, reached past her shoulders. She seemed to wore a short green kimono with brown leather shoulders, and its skirt was rather short. The fox woman gritted while she gripped the handles of two short blades behind her hips. "Who the hell are you? Are you a friend of that mammoth guy?"

"He wishes." she responded, so smugly.

"Who are you, then?"

"Does it really matter?"

Her brows furrowed deep between her eyes, "No...you're right. Whoever you are..." With sharp 'sling' sounds, the girl whipped out pair of blades that looked too large to be dagger, but too small to be swords.

"You're dead!!!" she roared, leaping right for Aleena. "Because I'm gonna rip you to SHREDS!!!"

Grinning, Aleena shot off before the girl swung a swift swipe with her blades. In a second, the piece of the ground exploded off; the chunk was smooth with no lumps on the sides.


Sitting on a tree down from the hill, a fox in brown Asian rags quietly read a book while explosions erupted on the hill. He had a eye-patch on his left eye, and a ninja-styled pony tails. While he had bushy eye-brows, his face looked somewhat like an adult Tails.

"GET BACK HERE!!!!!" the voice roared as a tree was sliced in half.

Aleena flew away, shooting past the relaxed fox...

While the girl flew after her, with her blades lifted for the kill.

"Dear, don't strain yourself." he said, flipping a page.




".......sheesh...what hardcase." Glancing at Aleena. "Don't tell me that she..."

Grinning, she rested her head on her head. "Yeah...Rosemary and Amadeus. Yeah...they're related to Tails."

[YolkaEd]

"...they're related to me?" Tails uttered, as he watched the two in awe; strangely, while he could see himself in Amadeus... Rose reminded him more of Fiona. "...wow..."



However, how Aleena worded that sentence got Metal to thinking. ...she called Theo, Jan and Rob ancestors... but those two are only related to Prower? he thought. ...there's something to it...

[Alien-Child]

Inching to Tonic, "Any special reason why she hesitated to tell us Tails' family? Besides the fact they seem a bit... bizarre."


"I dunno, this is the first time I've heard of the two tailed-" Tonic's eyes widened and zoomed at Tails. While smaller, Tonic was sure there could have been one fox with two tails.


"...You alright?"


"Yeah... don't worry about me."

[Ninetalesuk]

Turning away from the scene, he snickered... "Oh, man..."



Amy, on the other hand, laughed. "Hahahah! It's like...it's like it was reversed."



"Huh?"



"What do you mean reversed?!" he wondered, having a feeling what Amy was talking about.



"I've got a good idea, but I'll keep quiet about it..." He smirked.



Grinning, the scene changed a bit, but this time showing...



Sonic scaling up a mountain, grinning down at...



Knuckles clawing up the mountain with such fury, with his claws.



And then the scene changed...



With Aleena scaling up the carved mountain, grinning down at...

Rose, climbing after her using her blades to scale the mountain.



"Knuckles... this is Ultra Total Weird with a captial U..."



"....I am NOT like that!!!" he roared.



"Are you sure?"



"Do you wanna fly again?"



Remembering what happened in Green Hill, he rapidly shook his head. "Nonononono!!! He's not like that!!!"



Snarling with a gritting grin, Knuckles punched his palms in front of Silver. "Good..."



"Ahem! Anywho, Rosemary, as you can see, was nothing much but a fiery warrior, trained by a family in China, who the wife was skill in samurai.



As shown, in some dojo, Rose swiped her blades around woode dummines, cleanly slicing their heads off.



"A samuari vixen, huh?"



"In my timelines, Sonic, in a place where humans hunt Mobians down, you BEST learn to defend yourself. Anywho, while Amadeus, while also was trained in samurai, was also a great blacksmith."

@amadeus@

As shown, Amadeus, giving a clean swipe with a long katana blade, the dummies' weapons were knocked out of their hands as if the wind knocked them. Then the scene shifted to Amadeus hammering a black blade, in a blacksmith shop.



"Huh... interesting... too bad Rosy's patience was put to the limit when she met you... failed big time, huh?"

[Chibi-Cosmo]

"So that fox was like your rival?"

[AnT]

"Ha! She wishes," she gloated, shrugging. Straightening herself a bit, "I guess she first got pissed off at me, because the leader of Knothole was a being named Mammoth Mogul."

With in the large hut, Mogul would be sitting on a large chair, as he was holding a book and readying, though these book would be normal size and not fit for him so he has to weir reading classes made for him. He would hear a knock at his door as he placed his book down with his glasses. He would make his way to the door and he would open it just a bit so he would be able to look through. "You just interrupted me from my studies." He complained. "What is it?" His eyes narrowed once he saw Sara, and was growling deeply as he faced Aleena. No doubt it was her fault a human was on this island, "She better be a prisoner!"


"Well, she is a 'Hostage'." Jan said, trying to defend Aleena.


"Sir, there's something you have to see." She lifted Sara's tail, to give Mogul a good look, while handing him the notes on everything Nico had studied on Sara, moments ago, "Seems the humans can be affected by the comet as well, to some extent."


It was hard to measure the fear in Sara right now. She had heard of some of the animals being huge, but didn't know about prehistoric ones. And from what the hedgehog says, she's dead!

"Oh great," Aleena sarcastically said, rolling her eyes. "A human just shows up here...a mutant one to be exact, and it's suddenly my fault?"

"Aleena, shut up!"


The 'tail' seem to have calmed Mogul's temper, for the time as he read the papers Nico has giving him. "Hmm, characteristics of a cat, yet human?" He looks away from the notes, and take a glance at Sara again before back to glare at Aleena, "Exactly, how did she end up here?"


She really didn't want to answer that question, didn't know what to say, considering the only entrance her she knows is those rings.


"No doubt Aleena brought her close to a Warp Ring. Careless, like all ways."

"Well next time, scale-face, why don't YOU go on a food hunt with hundred of Granite cronies on your tail. I'll be sure to visit you in your cage to laugh at your face."

"Bloody Hell, Aleena..." Waving her hands at Mogul, defensively, "Uh, my guess...Aleena used her as a hostage to escape Granite's men."


Mogul would then step out of his hut, walking towards Sara, He would stare down, looking around the catgirl, studying her for himself. He would then try and see if her tail was real just to make sure the girls weren't just trying to keep a human in Knothole by pretending she is mutated, and he tugged the tail, and since Mogul is physically stronger, and bigger than Aleena, this tug was nothing compared to the earlier one.


"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!" A scream multiple times louder than the one Aleena cause her entered the air, Sara fell back to her side, twitching once more, feeling weak and hurt.

Blinking at the cruel display that large brute did to her, "Uh...he was a real mammoth?"

[YolkaEd]

"Apparently, so." Metal shrugged, as he folded his arms.



Tails, however, was silent, as he observed Mogul. Somehow, even though this was the first time he had laid eyes on the mammoth... seeing him felt familiar.

[Ninetalesuk]

Mammoth Mogul... that's what Aleena yelled for thank sarcasim when Sharha's magic didn't work... He frowned.



"........"

[Alien-Child]

"Okay, I can understand a comet crashing to the earth mutating all animals and causing humans to be hybrids (which somehow are not in the present), I can even understand ghost from the past are telling me these stories, but how is a mammoth and some dinosaur are Mobians when the comet fell at a time they were dead?!"


"Uh... from what I recall... they were trap in the Special Zone since the first comet hit so they were alive the whole time until chaos crash landed. The chaos energy from that universe made them Anthros."

[Chibi-Cosmo]

"Besides seeming cruel, why did that guy do to anger that Rose-fox?"

[AnT]

"My memory is a little fuzzy, but I believe it mostly has something to do with Amadeus and Rose being from a different village. Also, Mogul secretly planned to rid of the human race. I remembered, inspired by Sara's existence, he hoped to turn EVERY human into hybrids. Another big plot...well, using Erazor, Mogul wished for the creation of Little Planet."

"Really?!?" she gasped, looking at the planet...or she could've, but the illusion of being in the forest was just too great. She couldn't see it.

"I think it was a deal with another leader of another village, where Amadeus and Rose came from; to create a world for Mobians to live in, free from human life. But Mogul planned on destroying Earth once all Mobians parted to Little Planet."

Gaping in disbelief at Aleena, "And you worked for this guy?!"

[YolkaEd]

"...if I'm not fully mistaken..." Metal presumed, as he looked at Aleena. "...either it was simply a collaboration for survival... or someone might have shared his views once upon a time. Personally, I'm hoping for the former."

[Ninetalesuk]

"And how would he do that? With Erazor's power or did he had some crazy plan?"

[Alien-Child]

"A big shot who wanted to destroy the world... how predictable. But why would he choose a Little Planet than Mobius?"


"He felt Earth was already polluted by the human's touches. Polluted oceans, toxic wastelands along with a hole in the ozone, he didn't want anything to do with the planet since it has been tainted."

[Chibi-Cosmo]

"Metal Sonic... you never seemed like the Noble type before."

[AnT]

"Hm..." She wasn't really sure she would get into much details of how she somewhat helped Mogul in his sick ideas. He did manipulate her to hate humans too, but it took a while for her to cool off about them.

"I don't remember what he used to do the whole world destruction thing. I got shot in the head in a Chaos Storm."

"Chaos Storm?"

"Yeah, it's a dangerous build-up in the Special Zone; really bad thunder and lightening across the realm. Happens in a blue moon. Anywho, I took care of Mogul before that happened, and sealed him within Little Planet. Can't remember how I did that, too."

[YolkaEd]

"...wait, let me get this straight..." Tails uttered, as he looked around, as if trying to locate Little Planet. "...Mogul is still within Little Planet?"



"Strange... I can't recall Eggman ever finding any sort of traces of that being when he tried using Little Planet for his own devices." Metal uttered. ...now I'm a bit worried... what if Alicia's meddling could wind up breaking the seal? he thought.

[Ninetalesuk]

"So, the Elephant Man is still alive?" He asked dryly.



"Don't you mean Mammoth Man?" He aske.d He thought about waht he said and rubbed his eyes. "No, I see your point now..."



"Heh..."
