Chapter 72 - For what is to come.

Sonic: Now this is too much,can't even catch a breather for a mins or two now.

Sonic is currently laying down on his bed in the king's quarters watching TV, for the previous seven hours he had been greeting and talking to guests and now looks like a deflated balloon.

The door slams open to reveal Shade who seems to have dark circles showing despite her dark coloured quills and fur, she drags herself to Sonic and layed down beside face on a pillow.

Sonic: Tired? *Gives her a water bottle from the side* We don't belong in those exhausting places.

Shade silently nods while gulping down the entire bottle in one gulp, she grabs Sonic's arm and fell asleep while using it as a pillow.

The door slams again as this Time Sonica came in while looking extremely drunk, she has her grimoire at her waist and a bottle of wine in her hands which she gulps down occasionally.

She couldn't even reach the bed and fell on the ground while Snoring like a bear, Sonic sighs and turns his other arm in the werehog and carried her onto the bed.

Suddenly his wrist band begins beeping and he sighs in annoyance, he carefully puts a pillow under Shade's head and drags his exhausted body back to its feet and walks towards the hallroom.

With a cape on his shoulders and a golden crown in his head, Sonic walks down the castle while every servant or knight bows to him while passing.

He greets them with a smile and carries on until eventually reaching the ballroom where for some damn reason a literal pizza party is going on.

On one side he saw jet and storm competing against Sonic° and Sally for a dance off while Amy is eating along the cream duo and the vanilla duo alongside big and for some reason vector standing with a bouquet of flowers and a bow in his neck.

Sonic: *warps behind vector* I remember warning you, this one is on you. *Warps away alongside vector*

Sonic bought vector° onto the main gate of the castle walls, before vector could think further.

Vector°: Eh? *Gets kicked in the back* Aaaaaaa-

Sonic: *leans against the edge* Never mess with my mother again you moron. *Warps back to the ball room* So where was i?

On the other side of the ball room, Sonic° and tails° cheering on for Knuckles° for a eating contest against Shadow who seems to be mumbling his ultimate life form mantra while devouring the food as if it was air.

Then he saw them, Amy and bla- no percieval nearly melting on a couch while barely surviving thanks to the ice cream shake in their hands like a torch to a explorer.

Sonic: *gets closer to the duo and sits between them* Regretting it yet? I told you it would be a bad idea.

Amy: I didn't sip Know they would sip Literal come the next hour. Big sip, They arrived two minutes after I told them we are having a party while some were just dragged along.

Percieval: *hands raised* Give me a hug, I am dying.

Sonic chuckles lightly and gives her a small hug while patting her head, Percieval purrs lightly which goes ignored in the literal chaos that is going around them.

Surge, Espio and Charmy seems to have teamed up and doing a rock concert on the dance stage while Jet begins twitching under the rhythm less metal tune they are laying.

Kit: Play some phonk too, it ain't got enough dubstep here. *Yells while giving a thumbs up to surge*

Sonic: they truly have too much energy, atleast the knights are behaving.

In the middle of the ball room, the knights like garith and Gawain seems to be showing off their weapon skills against Eggman's puppet who seems to collecting data from the backsides while dressed as a food seller.

Sonic: I am freaked out that he wore such a costume.. and even more by the fact the idiots haven't noticed yet.*internally shrugs*

The party is going in full force and it kept going till the night, Shade and Sonica also came back after the rest and finally the main event started.

A giant cake about the size of Werehog Sonic was brought into the room on a table by a bunch of servants and both Sonics were forced to wear a birthday hat.

For some reason both Sonics has the same birthday so, everyone decided to celebrate it together. The cake was cut without any of those happy birthday songs and most of them lunged on the cake like wolves.

What started as a birthday celebration turned into a food fight then into a drunk men's brawl and ended with most of the drunk ones bring thrown straight into the fountain outside.

Amy: EVERYONE. OVER HERE *waves her hands and yells from the concert stage* We got a announcement.

One by one everyone assembled in front while Sonic was dragged onto the stage by blaze, he nervously looks at everyone staring at him and almost lost it due to social anxiety.

Sonic°:*turns to sally beside him* is it what I think it is?

Sally: pretty sure it is, i guess you can finally leave the king job and go running around again.

Sonic°: FINALLY! *Looked around to see everyone glare at him and slowly shrinked back* sorry.

Blaze: As most of you have guessed it, we are finally getting married. *Grabs onto Sonic's arm* and we want to make it the biggest party ever.

Amy: So we decided to host it at the metroid Empire capital, I heard they have over 2 thousand dishes serving in the capital alone. *Wipes the droll coming from her mouth*

Most of the foodies almost ascended to heaven after hearing about the sheer quantity of food types while others were very confused by what the metroid empire is.

Sonic: Basically your boy here managed to conquer another kingdom in another galaxy in the past 2 years. *A thumbs up while showing his teeth* I got another damn empire to worry about now.

The talking intensified as they revealed the marriage date which was four days later , vector and other singles like charmy cursed their own fortune in envy while bringing out the gifts they had prepared when shade walks in with Blitz in deep sleep.

Sonic°: YOU GOT A CHILD? *Comes closer to blitz* hey there little buddy, why don't- oof(Roblox death sound).

Blitz lazily grabbed Sonic°'s finger who was trying to wake him up and threw him like boomrang, Sonic° spinned like a ball and straight through the window.

Everyone:*visibly recoiling back*'That must have hurt.'

Amy°: Aww *sparkles in her eyes* Give him to me. *Takes blitz in her hand who played with her quills that were tied to the front* Look at this cutie.

She took him to everyone including the Vanillas and creams who played with the child like a toy and he didn't dare do anything like he did to Sonic° for some reason.

The focus moved from the marriage to the child in mere instant while Sonic slowly sneaked away from the back, he went outside into the lawn to see Sonic° stuck in a tree trunk like a arrow shot at a block wood.

Sonic helped his twin get out of the trunk that could literally be taken as a aiming target and they both sat together at the fountain where the drunks almost drowned.

Sonic°: Just what did you feed the brat? I also have gotten hit like that by Amy once. He truly is your child for sure.

Sonic: I found him in a lab, I haven't done anything like that.

Sonic°: seriously? I guess you found some child making gun or something because he sure as hell looks like a mix of you and Amy with strength of his. Pretty sure he won't be the last one.

Sonic: *embarrassed* Why don't you talk for yourself? You haven't even slept with Sally even after your engagement with her.

Sonic°: She will kill me if I dare touch her before marriage.. it's two weeks later by the way.

Sonic: Good for you, high five?

Sonic°: sure *gives Sonic a high five and leans back into the fountain and almost drowned for some reason*

Sonic laughs and pulls him out before warping to get a towel, he returns alongside a tray of chilidogs aswell and they both had their fun time devouring them in peace.

Sonic: You would need to get Stronger.. *looks at Sonic who has stuffed his mouth to the brim* pft.. Let's get serious for a minute here.

Sonic°: *gulps down the food* what is it this time? Some crazy scientist or some reincarnated king, it isn't Some eldritch moron is it?

Sonic: nope.. well you can consider them eldritch if you want to, they sure are good at messing with the mind.

Sonic°: i guess it will be tough then, i hate bastards of that powers. Makes me want to send them straight into the jails.

Sonic: Well I decided to get us some help atleast, we need most of us to reach tier 9 if we want any chance of fighting them. And also don't ask that, I got that covered aswell.

Sonic°: am I that obvious? Well whatever, we can handle them even they threw everything they got, tell me about the benefits first.

Sonic: Something equalent of a universal highway, a massive increase in chaos energy supply.. and maybe a bunch of friends.

Sonic°: Sounds sweet.. when are we starting? After your marriage?

Sonic: we are already underway, time is ticking and we got only a few years. Tell the others aswell, I am going to get some rest.

Sonic soon arrived at his room and opened the door while yawning , he didn't look around much before seeing a certain figure sitting on the bed staring at him.

Iris: You sure took your time coming here didn't you? I was about to leave if you didn't come in a minute or two.

Sonic: You know your lies are easy to read for me, and you sure as hell ain't about to leave from what I can see here.

He sits beside her and stares into her eyes, she brings out a small scroll bound by a green string that Sonic cut with argus who complained about be used as a letter opener.

Sonic: *reads through the information* Glad to find we haven't lost my glaive yet, I would have gone crazy if you had lost that alongside my diary.

Iris: You wish, I collect everything that is mine no matter whether the owner wants it or not. Now give me a-

Sonic: *stops her by grabbing her face* Nope, not yet. You will have to wait before you can have your way.

Iris: Meanies *crosses her arms and pouts* This girl has also been pretty obsessed with you from what I see. Did she try something funny?

Sonic: well she liked my werehog self a little too well, almost drowned me to get a kiss. I barely survived.

Iris: WAIT!! You don't know how to swim? And she got a kiss? *Brings out a hairpin from her hair that turned into a spear the next second* You reject me but still dare mess around with the vessel?

Sonic: Oi oi calm down, she forced her way when I was getting to-

Iris: No. Get me my share or I am taking away that leg of yours to my collection, I got over a thousand now.

Sonic had to then satisfy her with some hugs and pats on the head while ignoring anything else she demanded before sending her away, Surge came back to her control and decided to ask him to transform again.

Sonic: Listen, answer my question first. If the person you loved had a two faced personality and you only loved one of them, does that mean you love him or do you don't?

He forced Surge to think again and again until her stupid Barbarian brain couldn't take it anymore and collapsed under the mental confusion. He carried her to her room few meters away from his and put her in the bed and left to his room again.
