Roleplay:Origins

In the year 2016, SEGA has announced they've cut funding to Sonic Team due to a series of massive flop titles.

Soon after, Users from the site Sonic Fanon Wiki awaken on Mobius. There, they meet with their fan characters and try to get home.

The events were not unrelated. In a Mobius where games, comics, and past Roleplays all converge into a reality, the users must learn to fight Doctor Eggman, his armies, and the problems in themselves. But just why is Eggman so interested in capturing them? Why is the planet seemingly falling apart? And who is the boy in black that keeps turning up during their quest?

Rules

 * Follow all SFW Policies.
 * I stress, no God-Modding.

Part 1
The teenager awoke on a cliff. Around him, seagulls sang their hearty, seaside song. A blaze of pink and yellow, blue and orange lit up the sky. The smell of sea salt assaulted his nostrils.

As the boy got onto his feet, a wave of nausea swept over him. Thankfully, before he emptied the contents of his stomach, the world righted itself and all was calm. With each breath, the boy grew stronger. His headache vanished, the weakness in his joints faded away. And in himself, there was a...something. He felt his chest, only to find his heart did not beat within.

trying to tap this strange thing inside himself, the boy channeled his thoughts. It took a bit. Maybe five minutes, maybe an hour. But the entire time he stood there, he focused on controlling and taming this feeling inside. He replaced the old, paint stained sweatpants and graphic tee with a sharp suit. All black, with a white tie. Next, he mentally brushed his hair into a waterfall of black curls, and even decided to have some fun and turn his eyes a piercing blue. Gorgeous.

He didn't know what this was, but he was darned sure he'd take full advantage of this power.

* * *

Under a tree was a boy, 16 years old, sleeping. The boy awoke and stretched his back. He opened his eyes and flinched at his surroundings. "The hell...where am i, and What am i doing under a tree?" the boy looks around and sees that he is under a tree on the side of a forest path. He holds a hand to his head "alright this is wierd, last thing i remember is...i can't remember...i can't remember what i was doing. So then where am i?". He looks up and down the path confused.

The boy stands up dusting off his pants then looking down at his clothes. He was wearing blue jeans shorts and a Grey teeshirt with a yinyang sign that had a dragon on one side and a tiger on the other, looking like they were about to battle. He was a not so strong kid, not very muscular on his arms but his legs are fairly strong and able to run far distances from training. The boy remembered that the last thing that happened to him was he fell asleep on the couch in his house while on a computer. "So now i'm here?...and where is here?" he looks down the path again and sees something coming his way at a high speed. He blurts an obscenity as a strange blur goes by. "And what the hell was that?!" he said as he watches the creature continue moving down the path. Then he hears the voice a man from behind. He turned around to see another Human about the age of 19 with white hair and light blueish grey eyes. "Hey...are you human?...thats not something i see everyday...whatever anyway do you know where that Blasted Tiger went, he's wanted for crimes throughout the mainland of mobius" the man said while holstering a glock he was holding. The boy stared at the man almost gawking. "Your name...is your name Endac?!" asked the boy who was now shuddering. Endac nodded "how do you know me kid...nevermind, not an important question, where did it go?" The boy shook his head "um he...i mean it went up the path i think". Endac smiled "thanks" he replyed and headed off after it "see you 'round i guess". The boy thought over what happened. "This has to be a dream, but that was Endac...and he said Mobius...i'm on Mobius?!"

Endac continues following the Lion on foot but soon realizes that it has escaped from him. "Blast...if i hadn't stayed to chat with that kid i would have caught him...whatever". A miniature Dragon flies up and then forms into a human who also looked 19 with Black hair in a fairly normal trimmed fasion. He wore a white button up shirt over a white Tee and Blue jeans. All together he looked like he just came out of an anime. He also had Crimson Red dragon wings jutting from his back. "So what now endac?" says the Dragon boy. Endac gives the boy a side glance "lets just head home Yuyeri...i have no use of being here anymore" he replyed as he turned to leave. Yuyeri followed Endac in silence shoving his hands in his pockets.

Elsewhere, along particularly rocky section of Mobius' eastern shoreline, there was a young man. Now this wouldn't be anything worth noting under your average circumstances, these weren't normal circumstances at all. For one, the guy was passed out facedown on the sand just out of the reach of the surf, which was desperately trying to lap at the man's form in an attempt to draw him into it's cool body. For two, the man was wearing nothing but a white undershirt and some thin black shorts sleeping-shorts. While this in of itself was uncommon (but not unheard of) for this stretch of shore, the way in which this man had arrived here was completely unnatural. Instead of stumbling drunk across the sand like the rest of the men who had lost their consciousness here, this man had simply poped into existence precisely at the stroke of 12. There were even a few seagulls to bear witness to the happening, and they were certain to fly off before any more people could suddenly impose on their privacy.

As waves gently crashed upon the shore, Anne Taeking saw the boy lying in the sand. She dismissed her guards, and knelt beside him. After feeling his pulse, she determined he was alive.

"And who are you?" she asked softly, stroking his hair," 'tis not every day a young lady is presented with a handsome man upon her trail."

The boy's hair is short and stubbly, having been cut in a military fashion no more than four days ago, and his head is warm. He stirs slightly in his slumber, obviously still deep in sleep despite his current location.

"A soldier..." she said, now recognising the style of haircut," Interesting. AWAKEN SOLDIER! HUP! TWO! THREE! FOUR!"

The soldier's response is obviously conditioned from many a early wake-up call for an inspection, as the time in between his eyes snapping open and standing at attention is barely more than a second. This military composure is thrown out the window when he realizes exactly who it is calling him to consciousness, however, for he literally leaps back four feet before taking up a defensive stance. Despite his surprise, he doesn't utter a word other than a reflexive obscenity, even as he prepares to fight for his right to live.

"Congratulations, you're fully awake and ready to defend your country from my paniers," the lioness replied in an English accent, smiling and flashing her fangs. She inspected the soldier, looking over his sand stained clothing and disheveled appearance. As his eyes scanned her, she asked," I suppose you don't hold your drink well, soldier."

The soldier remains silent, his eyes locked onto Anne's face, tracing over all her alien features and betraying the foremost of his thoughts: Why the flying f*** am I seeing a anthropomorphic lion right now?

"Answer me soldier," she demanded, now growing annoyed. After a few more moments of silence, she lifted up her skirts, strode up mto him, and slapped him across the face. Rubbing her palm, she garnished her tone with venom and asked," Art thou now satisfied I am real, soldier!? Stop staring at me, mouth agape like some idiot and tell me who thou art!"

After a short second of complete shock, the soldier turns his now hardened gaze back to the lioness.

"I am Petty Officer Gallant of the United States Navy, and I will not hesitate to strike should you lay another hand on me, mam."

She raised an eyebrow, unimpressed as she said," Well, "officer", I regret to inform you there art no such nation as "the United States" on this planet. Perhaps thou awoke here from a mental institution?'

The Officer, Gallant, didn't look surprised at this information. "I gathered that, mam, when you confirmed that this is reality and not some bad dream with that slap. What is the name of this planet we stand upon now?"

"'tis Mobius," she said, motioning her arms toward the horizon. No longer interested by the soldier, Anne was able to better view the location. It was a lovely, quiet beach town made up mostly of rich men's getaways. The hammocks and palm trees went perfectly with the white condos and pinkish-blue morning sky. It was almost like being in a postcard.

"Mobius..." Gallant echoed, thinking over the name. It sounded familiar... Very familiar, actually... In fact... The more he thought about it...

"Oh gods..."

Despite the warm sunlight at his back and the warm sand beneath his feet, the Third Class Petty Officer felt cold. He was certain what was around him was truly real, the mild stinging in his cheek being enough of a confirmation, but if this were truly Mobius he would most definitely not be getting home to he his family like he thought he was not even twelve hours ago. And as Mobius was the only planet he knew of that carried anthros with eyes such as Anne's, there was no doubt in his mind that he'd never see his ship again... Faced with such a reality, he simply closed his eyes, fighting to keep himself composed.

Anne eyed him, watching him shudder and twitch like he was about to break. It was truly pathetic. Although unphazed by his current emotional state, Anne knew an oportunity when one came. Whoever this "Gallant" was, there was the possibility he may have information. Perhaps he was a soldier working in a secret power plant? Or guarding a missle base? Even if he was just a simple human with nothing that would help her, Anne was still willing to gamble on this man. With a sweet voice like honey, she said," Perhaps thou would like to come with me? My property is not but a stroll from here, and I'm sure I may provide help. If nothing else, I'm sure thou would like breakfast."

Gallant's eyes snapped open, full of anguish for a life he'd never get to see again, full of hate for his present situation, and the directed all this pain at Anne. "You have no idea the trouble I face right now, lion!" He growled, staring her hard in the face. "My entire existence has been ripped asunder while I slept, and now I have nothing NOTHING left to live for!!"

The lioness smiled in a strange way, a confident look spreading over her face as she said," Thou art not from here, are you? Well, if thou art not from here, then thou must have arrived here somehow, yes? Ship, plane, wormhole, inter dimensional shift? And if you arrived, there must be a way to send you back, yes?"

She extended a hand, still smiling as she said," I am a very powerful woman, Officer Gallant. I am confident I can bring thee home."

While Anne may have been full of confidence in herself, Gallant was never the type to have confidence in anyone other than himself, especially when wounded.

"Make not promises you cannot keep, and buy into no debts you cannot pay!" His eyes were no less wild and full of pain than before, though his mouth now bore a smile of sorts. "I may be a man with nothing left to live for, but I am not a fool: A woman who can alter reality has no need to console the broken!"

"Alter reality? Thou must be confused," she said, growing angry again," I will be honest, sir. I am but a defenseless girl, with no more "powers" than an infant. However I do have connections to powerful allies. I make no move without seeing a benefit to myself. I'm quite interested in your arriving from another planet, and I should like to find out how and why this happened...maybe even discover if more of you aliens hath arrived? Hmm?"

The human opened his mouth to speak, but stopped himself as if something clicked into place in his head, at which point he breaks out into a genuine grin and starts laughing a growing, hysterical sort of laugh. Whatever it is he's laughing over, be it madness or something genuinely funny, Anne can't tell.

Well crap she thought, looking at his new grin. His face curled and contorted. It was the one thing Anne feared: Insanity. Whethyer the smartest, most cunning, or unbearably stupid, any sane person could be manipulated. But not one with a broken mind. They were uncontrollable, unpredictable. She raised her head, scanning the man before her and wishing she hadn't sent her guards away. With a hint of defense, she asked," So, what say thee, Sir Gallant?"

Gallant's laugh comes to an instant halt at her voice, and when he looks at her again his eyes are much clearer and bluer than before, showing what seems to be acceptance that's holding the pain at bay. "I say to the hells with it, mam, I'll go with ye. Like it or not, I've no other chance, and feeling sorry for myself isn't going to get anything done." He flexes his hands, causing his knuckles to pop as they're forced to move once more. "I can mourn when I'm alone."

"Very well then..." she said wearilly. Immediately, she pressed one of the jewels on her dress. A panic button in disguise, her guards returned at her signal, guns ready just in case. After taking up positions beside their mistress, the group headed back towards her home.

With nowhere to go and nothing to really lose anymore, the Petty Officer follows a short, respectful distance behind.

* * *

Elsewhere, on the peak of a mountain, a boy of the age of 16 gazed at the landscape spread below him. His shined a brilliant blue as the tattoo's running along his arms and on his face. His silver hair swayed in the wind as he turned to look up to the sky. Dressed in a tunic shirt, black pants, casual shoes and a black trench coat over his shoulder, he was not a normal sight for most. He smiled to himself as he stared back at the land before him. "This should be interesting." The boy said with anticipation. He then left from his perch and skydived don the own the mountain, only to land on a type of extreme gear and rode down to ground level. The boy soon landed on the plains spreding out before him and rode off towards the city near a beach only a fews miles away. "I should find some locals there. Maybe there are others from earth there." He smiles at the thought, hoping to find something.

The boy rode his extreme gear into the city and flies past a few houses till he found the beach. He flew over the beach until he saw a beach house and hopped off his extreme gear. "This seems a bit suspicious. Might as well start my search here." He says. He walked up the door and kncocked. "Hello, anybody here?" He asked confused.

* * *

Deep in an underground lab facility, a kid, roughly 16 at age, is seen floating in a sort of restoration tank, with a rebreather strapped to his face. He looked down to notice that he's shirtless, wearing a weathered pair of cargo shorts. Looking behind himself, he saw two white wings, hanging between his shoulder blades. He looked around the poorly lit and run-down room as a voice sounds: "Clone has awakened, releasing seal."

The liquid the boy was floating in began to drain and the tank opens. The boy, feeling weak on his new feet, stumbled out onto the floor and breathed the fresh air. He threw his head back and screamed in pain as the feeling of somebody ripping out his shoulder blades runs through him. When the pain finally subsided, he looks at his back to realize his wings were reformed back into himself.

The boy slowly stood up and stretched his joints on instinct, he notices that he was very well muscular considering the time in the restoremisn tank he must have had. At that moment, all the questions that had come to him earlier hit him again, and he wondered what he was doing here and why. As he continued to stretch his joints, he notices that on his forearms was stamped in a large black font the numbers "029".

The boy finally spoke to himself softly. "029...Clone...Clone of what?"

The voice spoke up again through a speaker. "Voice recognition: positive. Welcome, Draon."

029 walked to the door and typed a code into it that he didn't remember knowing, but still appreciated the fact that the door slid open. "Draon...029...Clone...interesting." He walked out into the hallway and instinctively began navigathro ugh way through the tunnels, up to the surface above.

As 029 continued to walk through the halls, he felt a deepening pit of lonelyness where he was. He stopped and looked up at the roof of the tunnel and said, "Yo, Robo-voice, where can I find some decent clothes?"

"Question acknowledged. You may find your room if you continue down this hall, make a right, and it should be the first door on your left." The voice stated emotionlessly.

"Uh, thanks, hey, what's your name?"

"My master has named me 'Secure And Remote Operating System', or 'SAROS', for short." the voice echoed.

He then spoke to himself, "Okay then, SAROS, thanks for the tip." He then headed towards the room that SAROS directed him to.

Opening the door, 029 stepped into the tiny room and looked around. The walls were basically bare, with an outfit hanging on the back wall on a hanger, and a bed in the corner. A small table sat at the foot of the bed, on it was a lamp that was on and shining down onto a small stack of papers that were stapled together.

He walked to the hanger and pulled it off the wall. He looked at the clothes, examining the white overcoat, black tee and white jeans. He ran his hand over the purple scarf that was on top of it all. "Very nice." he said to himself as he pulled it off the hanger. He slowly donned the new clothes and welcomed the feeling of familiarity, although he had never worn the clothes before. He looked in the side mirror, examining himself for the first time. A brief image passed through the boys mind, one that he did not remember having...he realized that the outfit and image were actually of Draon's thoughts, 029 being a clone of him would know them. He messed with his hair some and straightened it out, ignoring the fact that is hung in his face. He noticed the color of it, never thinking that it would be the light shade of purple that it was. He disregarded it and looked at his face, well rounded and lean, just like the rest of him. He noticed his green eyes were deeper than a normal human's should be. After a little while longer he stepped away from the mirror and turned out of the room heading out into the hallway. He looked around and spoke up as he had before, "Hey, SAROS, can you direct me to the nearest lift out of here?"

"Yes sir. But I believe it would be written down already in the stack of papers you left on your desk." She said calmly.

"What?..." 029 walked back into the room and looked back on the table, remembering the papers that sat there. He picked them up, looking at the top page, which read in big letters: "CLONE DEBRIEFING" He flipped through the pages to see how long it was, which wasn't too bad. He then flipped to the last page, which was a map of the tunnels. He located the room he was in and then found the lift up. He then flipped back to the top page, and walked back out into the hall.

"One more question," he said, "Do you actually have a body? Or are you just remotely placed in this compound."

SORAS hesitated in answering, but finally said, "Nobody has asked me that question in a long time master...I shall meet you at the lift, if you so wish."

"I would, SORAS. Since you are the first person to speak to me, I would like to meet you in person."

"Yes sir, I shall await your arrival..." She said in a voice that was uncomprehendable.

"Oh well, time to get moving." He said as he opened the booklet back up to the map and began navigating his way towards the lift.

Finally, he reached a dead-end hall with a door at the end, apparently being the lift door. Standing in front of the door, back to him, was a female fox, her black tail wagging slowly. She wore a long white silk dress, constrasted to her shoulder-length black hair.

As 029 was going to step closer, the girl turned around. She smiled as if she was genuinely happy, blushing softly. She bowed politely and spoke up, "Hello, master Draon, mark 029. My name is SAROS. You requested to see me?"

At that moment, 029 was struck with multiple thoughts. An anthropomorphic fox?!...master Draon?...She sounds like a robot but looks like a...a mobian?...but, she's so beautiful...

He was quickly snapped from his reverie when he realized that somehow she had moved from her position on the other side of the hall all the way over to him while he was thinking. He flinched and stepped back, gasping at how she had moved so quickly.

SAROS looked at him slightly worried. "Sir, I'm sure you have many questions, but might we leave this place like you so wished?" She stopped, thinking that she had said to much.

029 smiled softly and nodded. "Yes, let's go. C'mon. The questions can wait. But first, from now on, I'm oonna call you Sarah.

Sarah blushed slightly and smiled. Then a clicking noise was heard. "Name has been changed," She stated with a sudden more human voice, "I shall be known as Sarah by my master."

029 nodded again. "Now let's go." He made his way with Sarah into the lift, and they rode it up to the surface when the sun shone brightly. "It's beautiful."

Sarah smiled. "Yes, it should be early in the morning right now, sir. There is a nearby town that we can go see."

029 grinned. "Sounds good, let's go. Oh, and one more thing, Sarah. Just call me Draon."

Sarah blushed slightly and nodded. "Yes s- ...Draon. Let's go." She then leads Draon to the city.

Anne's beach house was not what one would expect.

Instead of a seaside theme, the interior was decorated in a strange mix of modern and Baroque architecture. Sure, there was a TV, couches, a kitchen with a spotless granite ciunter. But the walla were adorned with gold leaf carvings, the cielings blessed with the images of cherubs and angels in a bright fresco.

The lioness sat in one of the beautiful chairs, no doubt hand carved by some artisan she'd never met, and apoulstered with rare fabric with the express purpose of showing off her wealth. In her hands was a cup of tea, the plate and cup trimmed with gold (surprise surprise). As a servant prepared their meal, Anne asked," So, tell me about thyself Sir Gallant."

Tearing his eyes away from the artistry around himself, the Human directed his attention to his hostess. "Well, there isn't all that much to tell, mam. I was your average kid up until about junior high, when I got more and more reclusive and anti-social until basically the middle of my high-school years. I was a creative sort of kid and drew alot, but I was so smart and so, well, creepy, the few friends I had figured I'd end up working on some complicated weapon of mass destruction for the government." He chuckles. "They were half-right, though, I ended up working in an advanced steam-powerplant aboard an aircraft-carrier. Got to see tons of different places while on deployment, but never any action: something I'm thankful for. While the carriers are great intimidation tools and mobile bases, they also happen to be prime targets for opposing forces: Taking one out greatly reduces my country's military presence in the area, as well as leaves the units deployed in said area without vital air support. Luckily we were never at war during my service though, so that was never an issue."

"Interesting," Anne said. Though nothing I can use she secretly thought," And for what reason did you recognise this planet? Dream? Halucination?"

The sailor looked up at the ceiling, chuckling once more. "I know it seems absurd, but Mobius is actually fictional where I come from. There was this whole series of video games and TV shows and comics that stemmed off of Mobius and its defender: Sonic." His smile widened, though his chuckle died off. "I used to be sooooooooooo entertained by those things I created a whole slew made up characters, an entire underground clan of Mobian vampires, and developed a system of magic, just for kicks..." He looked back down at Anne. "Crazy, isn't it?"

A knock is heard at the door. "Hello, anybody there?" The voice says with suspicion.

"Expecting guests, mam?" The sailor asked.

Endac and Yuyeri were walking back through the forest when they stumble upon the boy from earlier. The boy looked up at Endac, who glared back. Yuyeri stepped up next to him "hey calm down, he's just confused maybe". Endac kept glaring at the boy. "What's your name kid" Endac asked the boy. The boy stood up again from under the tree "Ro- um...Draelin, Draelin...uh...SoulVoid". "Well Draelin" Endac said softening his look "come on, you look hungry" he walks past Draelin who follows behind next to Yuyeri. Draelin looked up at the Dragonboy "hey Yuyeri". Yuyeri turns to him confused "how do you know MY name?" Draelin shakes his head "i'll explain later. Are we going to Wyvern city"? Yuyeri nods slowly studying the boy "have i met you before"? Draelin thinks about how to reply and says "sort of...i've met both of you just never exactly personally. I've also met your sister". Yuyeri furrows his brows "what?!...how do you know her"? "Long story. You wouldn't believe me if i told you". They continue on towards there destination in silence.

They step out of the forest onto a beach. Endac looks around confused. He turns back around and sees the forest gone. "what the hell"? Draelin looks around just as confused as Endac "what just happened here"? Yuyeri shrugs and starts walking along the beach. Endac follows "we don't even know where we are though Pyro". Draelin caught up with Endac and Yuyeri "why don't we look for other people like me". Endac shakes his head "i don't see the reason for it" he and Yuyeri walked off to leave Draelin behind. Draelin ran after them "come on you two, i thought i made you into heroes not nuetrals". Endac turns around "what the hell are you talking about kid, i don't even know you and now your saying that kind of sh-". "Wait...what if he's mental" Yuyeri cut Endac off "Jen would kill us if we left a mentally insane person here". Endac shook his head "then i'll kill him". Yuyeri sighed "why is it our so agrivated today? You've been angry since this morning". Endac scowled and started walking up the beach, then stops a ways away "well come on then, lets start searching for others". Yuyeri sighed again and followed him, followed by Draelin who looked confused and worried.

Somewhere else, in a small and peaceful forest, a 15 year-old boy in a black ninja suit was seen walking. As much as the boy enjoyed the quiet atmosphere, he knew he needed to figure out where he was. He was heading for the nearest civilizion he could find. He continued to walk, eventually reaching the end of the forest and stumbling upon a city. "Someone there has got to know where I am" he said to himself as he headed toward the city.
