dimensions (sonadow) | (on hiatus)

1

sonic sat in his duplicates hammock for the third time that week. he's never been in a different dimension for this long before so he finally thought he was getting a lead.

because if there's anything he's learned from being trapped in the multiverse for three going on four years, it's staying in one place for to long means he's getting closer to home.

he had surprisingly stumbled in the universe around a week ago. the tails from the sonic boom-928 universe told him to head there so he did. this was one of those universes that was more on the advanced side and because of that they had given him more information the he had gotten in a long while.

you see, after a battle with egghead a few years ago he seemed to have developed a condition thanks the radiation in the air that day, this condition gave him the ability to travel the multiverse.

you see the chemicals that were in the radiation solution weren't from his dimension, rather from several different ones beside his own.

and sadly the way it was triggered was by his favorite thing to do, running. somehow eggmam got ahold of this chemical and cursed him in away. every time sonic ran, whether it was full speed or a light jog he'd get teleported to a new dimension.

it took him around two to three years just to sum up that much, and now one of his theories was being proven wrong by the tails of this universe.

as he swang idly in the hammock the tails from the dimension went on with his explication.

"so blue, the conclusion i've come up with is that whenever you go to a new universe the time and day is extremely important. and the flaw with your theory is that you can't go to the same universe more than once each year. what I'm trying to say is if you want to get home you have to do it on the day you disappeared at the exact time it happened. with the different universe codes you've given me it's a pattern of you returning to some of the same universes around the same time each year." tails stopped pacing back and forth before heading over to his desk and jotting something down.

sonic took everything in and look over on the tablet pad tails gave him. he was right, there was indeed a pattern and he theory was indeed wrong.

what he still didn't get was if this was the case why wasn't he back yet? had he gotten the time wrong or something? maybe his theory threw him off?

he was pulled out of his thoughts as a small hand settled on his shoulder. "blue you should rest, we've been discussing this for two days in a row." sonic went to protest but the duplicate of his brother glared.

"sleep." he commanded. sonic gave a defeated sigh before laying his head down. the last thought crossing his mind being, will i really be able to go back this year..?

he slowly drifted off into a dreamless sleep.

when tails saw his brothers double fall asleep he let out a relived sigh. he gently pet his head and got lost in his thought. he felt a lot of pitty for him. not just because he was basically his brother but because of his situation.

he was glad that he had help him get a lead to getting back home and hoped he'd be able to return back to his tails. he could only imagine how the other tails felt, and it made him sad just thinking about it.

"kit?" called a rather deep, but calm voice. tails turned around slowly before blinking. "oh hey shadow." he greeted quietly.

the other eyed him as to why he was being so quiet and tails tilted his head at the hammock. shadow understood and nodded his head in acknowledgment before walking his and sonics room.

in this dimension sonic and shadow were mates. the setting was a bit different here, you see shadow was from an alien race that attempted to invade earth, the sonic of this universe however ended up changing their minds about it.

and now because of the love between both respected figures the two nations united with one another, hence the new upgrade in technology.

...

sonic woke the next day with a groan. he got up and stretched slightly before swinging his legs off the hammock. he let out a small yawn and looked his surroundings. right he was still in the same dimension.

he slowly got up to avoid dizziness and wakes over to the desk tails was working at. he searched this surface until he found what he was looking for. aha his book. he quietly snatched it up to avoid making a sound before trotting back over to his bed.

he searched in his quills for a pencil and began writing on the page quickly all the things he discovered the previous day. "now all I have to do is wait a few months...." he whispered to himself.

he didn't know if he should stay in this universe til then or leave. it was currently the beginning of may and he disappeared june 17th.

hmmm i might stay here for awhile.. it's not that bad. he thought setting his book to the side. he'd have to ask first.
