Sonic and Friends: Into a magical world
Chapter 2: All day, all night
Previous ChapterNext Chapter7:00 am, a nice and calm morning from the Sunrise in Station Square. We see Sonic in his home as he is seen sleeping wonderfully in bed, all in a nice finished royal blue paint on the walls and ceilings, with his blue blanket and everything. Then, a sudden loud ringing from his nightstand on the left side his bed reveals an alarm clock ringing loud, making the hedgehog jump out of bed and quickly slammed on the clock's snooze button. He barely got up just to stand and stretch out his legs and arms around.
"That was the best dream...ever" Sonic murmured, yawning from his mouth. He casually walked up to the door to the living room where he got his signature pair of red shoes, put them on his pair of feet, and walked out the door, stopping to breath the fresh air and the sunshine, "Well, time for my morning run!"
In a split second, he left his house as he boosted toward the city where the people were, climbed his way on the stairs into on top of large story building and came back down to finally reenter his house unscathed, "Woah! that was a pretty rough run back there,"
After his 'run', he went to his kitchen where he opened the fridge to get a jug of milk that was half way finished,then a bowl from the top cupboard, finally, to the pantry where he got a box of half eaten cereal of his own brand; Sonic O's, after that deal with an agency for his successful defeat of the box of cereal onto the bowl and the milk afterward, Sonic walked it to his couch and turned on the television to the news. Beginning to sit on the couch holding the bowl in his left hand and the spoon in his right hand, he indulged the first scoop of milk and cereal and began his breakfast while watching the morning news. So far, it's just to ordinary stuff you see in the news, traffic jams, the forecast, and the usual stuff.
"I wonder what the others are up to?"
It was a calm morning for the Fox, a nice sit on his couch watching some television while working on a little device in hand. he also had two pieces of toast and jam on a clean plate on the coffee table with it. As Tails enjoyed a nice calm morning, a knock or two came from his front door. He quickly stopped what he was doing and came to answer it. Tails opened the door, revealing Knuckles, putting a tough grin from the sight of the fox.
"Yo Tails!" Knuckles called him from the front of his doorstep, "I've heard you've been busy researching a massive break through and I wanted to see for myself."
"Sure Knuckles, come in!" Tails invited the red echidna inside his home, "Make yourself at home,"
Knuckles walked into Tails' living room where he jumped on the couch, adjusting himself onto the sofa and began flicking through channels with the remote he grabbed from the coffee table.
"Let me show you the tiara,"
Tails walked over to his desktop where the tiara rests on a table right next to it. Gently grabbing the rims, he carefully walked towards the resting Echidna, who was watching the food network.
"Here Knuckles,"
Knuckles turned his head to see the thing Sonic was talking about just yesterday, turns out it was real, "Woah!"
He quickly stood on his feet and ran towards Tails, who was holding the tiara, "So it is real! I thought Sonic was just playing around but this is ridiculous!"
"Really, well I guess that it's kinda of a stretch for a tiara to be found in the woods but it did happen," Tails replied on Knuckles' saying as he gave him the tiara to look at.
"So cool!" Knuckles, gazing at the crowd's design and looks as he inspected it at different angles, "Did you find out where this thing came from?"
"I did, but it's a bit of a long story," Tails looking away for him a bit, scratching the back of his neck, "But I'm starting to make a dimensional traveling gate to probably return it to its rightful place,"
"Tails, buddy," Knuckles grabbed onto his left shoulder, "What did we say about making dimensional travel?"
"I know! I know! I learned from that mistake and it will never happen again!" Tails used his strength to remove Knuckles' hand from him, "I'm basing it on my original design wit a few tweaks and revising my work!"
"Okay, okay, I'm not stopping you, so what are you going to need for this 'dimension gate?'"
"Just the Chaos Emeralds and I should be capable of doing the rest," answered the fox.
"Alright, I'll be back with the emeralds," Knuckles walked out to the front door, making his way out, "Oh yeah, can I borrow your Tornado 2? I can't get the emeralds without flying towards angel island,"
"Fine," Tails quickly sighed, tossing Knuckles the keys from his right pocket, "But be careful, I've just waxed it yesterday!"
Tails, as he was preparing to recreate his failed invention, grabbing his necessary tools, some gloves, his slaughtering kit and the chaos emeralds that Knuckles delivered to him an hour ago in a metal briefcase on the table.
"Alright, just need to bring out the main attraction," Tails, being the confident one in his mind began to walk towards a lever and pulled it. Just after that, Tails' dinner table next to his desk set up descended down as the floor boards holding it slid outwards then ascended something covered in a cloth. As it fully reached its surface, Tails made his way to the covered object and pulled its cloth revealing his first failed invention; The dimensional gate. It was as its names imply, an arc that projects static waves at high frequencies and ripping the fabric of space to create a dimensional rift inside the arc itself. Tails slowly ran his finger across the arc revealing dust on the console from the base of it.
"It'll probably take a few minutes to clean this junk off," the Fox was annoyed at all of the dust, "Anyway's, I'll get my original blueprints,"
It was about a few minutes until the fox grabbed his blueprints of the design rolled up in his left hand, he then unrolled the paper on a drafting table where the whole schematic of the dimension gate was laid out.
"Hmm," Tails observed the schematic inch-by-inch, "I think I can work around this "
He drew some rearrangements and decided to start working on the new dimensional gate
"Should take me a few hours to figure out this...'
A few days later...
It was night time just a few days after Tails', eyes strained followed by messed up hair, worked nonstop inside his home and it was about time he was fed up with all his failures; smoking up, combustions, explosions, and even not working at all. He tried everything from, adjusting and replacing every inch of the arc and using fewer chaos emeralds, but ends up in failure. The Fox was almost time for him to his next failure. He thought working on the wires and circuitry to adjust to the chaos emeralds power might be enough to get it to work.
"Alright...one more try." The Fox spoke to himself, "This has to work,"
With a pull of a lever on the arcs console, the arc slowly started to create a bluish color. The thought the arc was creating the rip in the fabric of space made the fox nervously staring at the modified portal while taking a few steps back for a safety precaution. The blue light began to form around the inside of the area of the arc, making an ambient noise too. Then, a quick flash from it made Tails covered his eyes with his left arm as the flash began to fade as Tails opened his eyes to see a blue light followed by a white swirl spinning clockwise that's being generated by the dimensional gate.
Tails witness with his own eyes, his invention finally worked.
He face was all deadpan and just shocked as he was mesmerized by the portal, "I can't believe it,".
"IT WORKED!"
Tails quickly ran to see the portal close up, "Let's see,"
Tails tried to enter the usual coordinates he remembered when scanning the tiara on the little screen on top of the generator. The screen showed a matching name of the bio scan; Equestria.
"That should do it!" Tails smiled at himself.
He quickly grabbed his phone and quickly dialed Sonic's number, "Please answer! please answer,"
Of course, he went to his voicemail.
"Sonic! please answer immediately! I've just successfully made my dimensional gate to work. Come here tomorrow at lunch and I'll explain everything. "
The next morning happened, Tails was still happy to his heart as he woke up from his bed after an amazing sleep, flew with his twin tails to the kitchen and prepared a nutritious breakfast for him.
"Come in!" Tails raised his voice for his guest to here outside.
The door opened, revealing Sonic who was putting a huge grin for his friend.
"Hey, Sonic!" Tails quickly flew to him as he entered the house, "You're here early!"
"Oh well, I'm always early for your 'new discoveries '" said Sonic, making air quotes with the last two words in his sentence, "So, let me see your new portal thingy,"
"Sure," Tails stopped what he was doing and led Sonic to the dining table, where he pulled a lever, bringing down the dining table and up the new and improved dimensional gate, with a new shiny coat of wax that Tails put last night.
"Woah! you do work fast on the new changes," Sonic was fascinated at the new portal, "So, is this thing programmed to go to this Equestria you've been researching about? we do need a vacation from all the Eggman fighting,"
"I'm definitely sure that it will take us to the right location," Tails felt confident at his sentence,
"Well, you certainly are not going to travel without a buddy at your side!" Sonic smiled, pointing his right thumb on his chest.
"Just to make sure that it's definitely safe for travel, I'm going do a few safety checks," warned Tails at Sonic, "Anyways, you should call up the gang to witness this gorgeous thing while I keep testing out the portals safety,"
"Sure buddy," Sonic followed his order and picked up his phone, texting everyone important in his contact list; Amy, Knuckles, Shadow, and Silver via, group chat:
Sonic: Hey guys, come to Tails' place by about 12:00 pm for something amazing.
Amy: Alrighty Sonic, I'm on my way now!
Silver: Ok, can't wait to see what could the surprise be!
Shadow: I'll go, but I won't be there for long
Knuckles: Same for Shadow, I've got a master emerald to guard.
"It's all done Tails, now I'll go do some errands real quick," Sonic turned to the fox, looking quite busy typing on his PC. He dashed out the door, making sure to shut it as he left out to the city.
Hours later, and the Fox was working on a device to test out if the portal was safe enough for traveling. He grabbed a little GoPro camera from his drawer and attached it to a 5ft metallic rod with wires running through the handle connected to a button. While connecting the wire to the camera, he then opened up a program that allows him to mirror what the camera sees on the other side of the rod using his PC monitor.
"Gotta make sure what Equestria looks like first," He said to himself, "Well, time to turn this thing on,"
With a pull of the lever of the machine downwards, the arc started to power up, with the same blue light and swirl that is being projected in the arc. Tails' sets the coordinates again and began to push a button to confirm the location. He readied the metal rod and began to slowly stick it into the portal, making a weird ambient noise to go with it.
"Steady, steady" Tails, making sure the rod is still when he pushed the button on the rod
He looked at his PC's monitor that was first making static, but then got a video feed from the other side, reveal great video quality of what it seems like some crystal tree-like castle with colors of blue, purple, and pink.
"Interesting," The twin tailed fox murmured to himself.
The next thing he saw was something that was coming outside the castle's entrance. Tails slightly zoomed up the picture showing a pink color unicorn, walking straight down while reading a book but without anything to hold it with as the creature was...levitating it?
"What in the world?" He scratched his head, fascinated at sight, "So, this is Equestria!"
Then, without a warning, the pink unicorn closed the book and then looked at the camera straight in the eye, tilting its head. Tails' wasn't aware of that as he went to make some gestures for his amazing breakthrough.
"What is that?!" the pink unicorn voice started to emit from the foxes monitor speaker.
Tails snapped back into the mission and quickly noticed the voice from his speakers, "Abort! Abort!"
He quickly retracted the metal rod with the camera on it and shut off the machine with the lever, pushing it back up. However, portal started acting strangely as it continued to power on. The color of-of the portals glow also changed from blue to a more pinkish color.
"What the?" Tails walked towards the machine and tried to process what was going on, "Why won't it turn off,"
Tails decided to do the most simplistic solution ever, shutting off the power source. He quickly opened the console with its thumb screw door and quickly popped out the chaos emeralds power it. Still, it was still power on, now making loud, electrical noises.
"Maybe I'll try one more thing," Tails said to himself, getting out the broomstick from the closet just across from him.
With two hands, he readied the broomstick from the top, where the dull part of the stick was right at the portal by inches. With all of his force, he went for multiple jabs inside the portal, feeling a slight bump from the first three jabs. Then the portal completely shut off with all of its noise too, "There you go, must be an electrical interface with something,"
Tails decided to call his test a success as he prepared it for the big discovery in years.
Meanwhile on the other side of the universe...
A calm and peaceful day in Ponyville as all the ponies enjoyed their walks and businesses, and for the Princess of Friendship, well that's a different story. We see the princess of friendship, or Twilight by the name of what her friends say was pacing back and forth around the map of all of Equestria with her number 1 assistant, Spike the dragon sitting on her throne.
"Are you sure you haven't missed placed it somewhere?" The dragon tried to calm down Twilight.
"Spike! it's been a few days since I lost my crown! and. I know the fact that I didn't miss placed it! I never missed place anything in all my life!" she was very tense just to comprehend.
"Then ask then ask the royal sisters, they can help"
"No Spike, they must never know! What happens if I do tell them? I'll lose my princess status and Celestia will remove my wings forever for not taking good care of my crown!"
"Well, you're not getting anything from it just by keeping it to yourself. She will understand and try to work out with you," the dragon comforted her.
"Really?"
"I'm sure she's nice enough to send her royal guards to search for it," answered Spike.
"Fine, just write a letter and send it to her while I break the news to the girls," she said as she was about to leave the room.
