Sonic's pov
That night, i told young Tails about Shadow, Silver, my mom, and the life i had lived. Once i finished, the kit had straight up said he owned a plane, and knew how to fly it. He said he would fly me around to help search for my lost family.
At first, i didn't know what to think, but as i slept on it, i realized that i may as well see if he really could help. I didn't really want to leave him alone to be bullied again for being a bit extra awesome.
That next morning was epic. The kit had a well working plane, and could fly it with ease. I would cover so much more ground this way.
We flew over to the next island before landing to refuel up, and i notice more of those robots around. I growl and i tell Tails.
"I see more of those bots, i'm gonna try to see where it's coming from this time!"
"Ok, be careful Sonic!"
"See you soon Tails!"
With that, i zoom off, busting bots and following where they seem to be slowly coming from. I finally come up to a large factory puffing out stinky smelling fog into the air.
Whoever made this would wreck the place. I need to stop this.
Without a second thought i get low and burst off, exploding into the factory. I quickly realize there's no proper staff, just an automated proccess sticking animals in as power sources into the robots.
So then how many actual people are here?
I keep running through the facility, until i hear the sound of typing and clicking. People. I turn toward it and i stop in a main control room. Only one person sat in the control room, a round man. I take a breath, just to cool my nerves that were begging me to spindash this fool into a wall.
"Hello? Are you the person who runs this factory?"
The man gasps and turns.
"Why hello there. I didn't know there was anyone here with some sentience other then myself."
He gasps as he looks above me, standing and i say.
"Ey! I'm down here sir."
He looks down and spots me. A suprised look arises on his face as i chuckle.
"Yeah, your robots have been bothering a town in the island over. So it's nice to file a formal complaint with manager of said bots."
The man gasps.
"Really? They have? I'm so sorry, my Badniks are usually quite friendly. With thier manager at least. Ivo Robotnik's the name, what's yours Hedgehog?"
"Sonic. I'm actually looking for 2 others that look kinda like me. Thier names are Silver, and Shadow. If you find them, could you point them to me?"
"But how could i? I have no idea how you arrived here."
"By plane. Found a really good pilot. Nice to meet you Robotnik, i gotta go check up on him speaking off. See you!"
I turn and walk out, the man seeming curious as the door shuts behind me.

"Silver and Shadow huh? Wonder why he's named Sonic amongst such blantant names?"
I turn back to my controls. He noticed thier hostile nature. But how did he escape them unscathed?

I make sure i'm far away, and with no robots around, i burst off, still feeling Silvers call. I just can't reach him, nor him to me. No matter how far i manage to reach, how far i run. Just where was Silver?
I run back to Tails and stop.
"I found the dude who's been making the bots, he insistes they're harmless and friendly, but calls them Badniks. Somethings up with that."
Tails chuckles.
"You'll figure it out. Any sign of your brothers?"
I shake my head.
"Nada, i hear his call, but it's like we can't reach eachother fully. Like a wall's just strong enough that we can't breach."
Tails thinks for a moment.
"Could it be.... possible Spacetime warping?"
"Ummmm- what?"
Tails chuckles bashfully.
"Sorry. Bassically what i'm thinking is that you've been seperated by Time. Shadow is numb to you, because he was in the past. Silver is in the future. Your the Present."
I think it over.
"Then what happened to Shadow? I can still reach to him, he's still alive because i don't have his powers. Something's just keeping him asleep."
Tails perks up.
"Then he's asleep somewhere in the present. We just gotta find out where."
I smile, Shadow's still here. I can find him. I jump onto the plane wing.
"Then lets jet and hurry. My older bro needs me!"
Tails laughs and gets the plane going.
Thanks to many hours standing on fire trucks i was used to the basic speeds that most vehicles reach. I grip the wing to make sure i stay on during takeoff.

Over the next few days, we encountered Robotnik once, where he was accompying a bunch of his little Badniks, gathering food, water, and some other things. One of those were Flickies. A small bird species i had learned about that were adorable, harmless, and normally came in hues of blue, pink and yellow.
They were also gathering up a bunch of Pockys. Not Pockysticks. Pockies were a bunny like species that was suprisingly mischievious.
Either way, i snatched the critters with my speed and sent them on thier way, which had left Robotnik speechless, and he asked me how my speed worked. I just told him that my brothers and i had been born with odd abilites and that was that before i left.

There's hardly anyone in this superheated wasteland. Anytime i had tried to group with anyone they always pushed me away or said i couldn't be trusted. Some even tried killing me or leaving me for dead. I just want to go back home.... or at least find Sonic. I can feel him reach out, but neither one of us could breach the gap that was Time.
I walk into an area, somehow still having power in one area.
The cool air was a relief from the sweltering blaze outside. A pod sat in the center of the room, Shadow laying inside. I couldn't get him to wake up. I had tried everything i could think of. But he just remained still in an endlessly frozen state.
"Hey Shadow. I know you can't hear me. But i figured you'd like a checkup report. My powers.... they're getting weaker, the air is so hard to breathe, but i think i know how to get back to Sonic, and get you out of this. The other day, i found this."
I pull out a golden gem, one that as i looked at, images flashed on the reflective surface.
"It doesn't have the power to free you here. But i think it can send me to Sonic. Whenever he is. I'll be leaving soon. I hope you can forgive me for not staying here. It is too inhabitable for me. I've tried, and you know i have. But i'm going to figure out how to fix this torturous future, one where the three of us are free. I promise that much."
There was the softest pulse of Chaos from Shadow. It was warm, reassuring. He knew i needed to do this. I smile and i sit down next to the pod, focusing my powers on the gem. Channeling all i've got, i focus on my brother Sonic.
There's a chime, then a feeling like i'm being sucked through a straw, before it relents, but i can barely think, too many sensations.

I gasp, slipping and i grab the plane wing quickly. Silver's energy suddenly feels very weak, but i could reach him, he's not responding.
"Tails! We need to land now!"
Tails gasps and yells.
"Ok! Hold on!"
I nod, putting my feet up and tucking in.
We quickly land and i hop off, instantly breaking into a run. Silver found his way to me, i need to find him before he's hurt!

I look down at the white hedgehog stranger that had landed on my island. He was strange feeling, a Time Stone at his feet. What happened to this poor soul?
I scoop him up and i carry him to my home, laying him down with the gem beside him.
From there, i sit on my bed and i watch over the stranger, to make sure they're ok through the night. The Master Emerald will tell me if anything goes wrong tonight.
