The Luck Of The Draw

Having A Soul And A Heart - Part 2

Setting; Sonic - Has a bit of Sonic X anime in here, but then it goes into Archie territory. A mix and there are other elements in here as well. In No Way Canon!

OC; Flora, Female OC, Worked As A Florist, Died At 24 Years Old

Death; Murdered During A Robbery Happening At Her Home/Work

Reincarnated As; Female Metal Sonic with a surprise twist to it (Mobian!Fem!Metal Sonic)

Pairings; ??????

I am going to be diving right into the story! But don't worry, there will be a ton of flashbacks in this story as time goes on, as well as explanations on why certain things happen the way they are.

Also, even though Sonic X happened, it happened differently in some ways, because this AU is mostly based off of Archie. Meaning, that when the others came back from Earth, that was it. Eggman decided to up the war and Chris never went to Mobius or anything like that. While Shadow's and Flora's past is like Sonic X's backstory for Shadow, other things are either different or not used. For example, because Shadow and Flora never woke up in Sonic X on Earth, the Arc was never used by Eggman.

Warnings to be shared; Flora and Shadow are not alright. Obviously, I mean, what happened on the Arc wasn't pretty for them or a walk in the park. So, they are going to have issues and be codependent on one another - therefore, Shadow might be OOC compared to his canon counterpart. With Flora being here and being who she is in this AU, this causes a butterfly effect obviously. I also might be going dark in this story, we'll see as time goes on.

Any OCs are made and owned by me unless stated otherwise.

-----------MOBIUS; FIFTY YEARS AFTER THE ARC, ONE YEAR AFTER SONIC X--------------

Flora woke up with a choked gasp, tears in her cherry red eyes.

- "Goodbye, Shadow, Flora." -

Quickly jerking up, her eyes widened at finding she was in some kind of lab. Placing a shaking on her chest, Flora could feel her heart beating as if she had been running on one of the treadmill on the Arc for a speed test.

Sniffing gently, all Flora could do was try not to all out sob.

'I thought I died again.' Flora giggled brokenly, her free hand shaking violently as she used it to cover up her mouth. Closing her eyes, she could still see her worst nightmare that had became reality not too long ago. 'I thought I was going to die again. But no, instead Maria did I what I did before!.... I can't even be mad about it, can I?'

How can she, when she did something similar in her first life?

Flora could still remember it. Working in her flower shop when suddenly a robber was there with a gun, pointing it at a child who had been separated from their parent in the chaos that followed. No thought was needed; One moment she was at the counter, the next she was in front of the child, taking the bullet with a smile on her face. She died surrounded by her flowers, to a child's cries.

She woke up surrounded by water and to the sounds of muffled chatter not too long after her heart had stopped for what should have been the last time.

Waking up as a weirdly colored hedgehog wasn't the best thing in the world. Never mind that she recognized Shadow slightly. By that, she means that she knew where he was from. Sonic. It wasn't a total leap to tell her where she woke up in. But, it was something that she was going to take to her second grave; the knowledge that she died once and woke up alive, and as a different species with weird powers and speed levels living in an Arc in space, in the 1950's at that. That alone showed her that she could throw the history she once knew out the window.
