Sonic closed his front door and yawned. Sure it was late, but tomorrow was Saturday… His doorbell rang. Sonic raised an eyebrow but opened the door. Thunder rumbled in the distance, the sky occasionally flashing with lightning. Clouds churned in the sky, and the scent of rain rode the wind. Sonic looked around. Nobody was there. He saw something on the doorstep. It was a small, black cube, made of metal, with a red button on the top. Sonic turned it in his hands. He stepped inside and shut the door. If anybody knew what the button was, Tails would. Sonic put the button on his desk. As he turned, it slipped onto the floor. He put the phone to his ear and started dialing Tails, and then, with a pound of thunder, the power went out. Sonic blinked in the suddden darkness. He slammed the phone down and walked towards the desk, aiming to get a flashlight. He pulled one out of the drawer, and with a triumphant,“There it is!”, he clicked it on. Then, he stepped on the metal cube. It starting beeping rapid fire. He jumped, and kicked the button away. With a sudden burst of color, a vortex opened. Sonic dropped his flashlight. The vortex swirled, and with a yell, Sonic was pulled into it. ~To be continued…
