Author's note: Holy cow, why have I not put this up?! I wrote it for a contest back in April! Anyways... enjoy this oneshot from an AU of mine, it won 1st for a prompt writing contest back in April-May... and read this info, it will help you not be lost :)
Backstory and AU info: This Mobius is ruled, not by Eggman, but by Infinite the Jackal and his wife, Amara. This AU is, generally speaking, during the time of Sonic Forces, but The Resistance has been defeated. No one has seen Eggman or his robots since his overthrow, and two Phantom Rubies exist in this AU, promoting distrust between former rebels, Freedom Fighters and the Jackal Empire. Amara secretly released Sonic from the Death Egg a few weeks before claiming power. The capital is called Haven City, the city as well as the cities/towns around it are clean, with little to no crime, it is located about where Metropolis existed.
The civilizations closer to Green Hill or the city near Green Hill have collapsed into slum-like structures as a result of resisting Infinite and Amara, who have offered multiple times to establish peace between them and the rebels, who have refused any help and as a result of their refusal, living conditions in Freedom Fighter towns have become appalling, but not because of their rulers. The majority of the Freedom Fighters/Resistance lives underground in the Green Hill area in a place called Refuge City, a city full of former Freedom Fighters/Resistance and others who despise Infinite's rule. Sonic has asked Manic to acquire various supplies that the city needs, since they are desperate both to get supplies and to not submit to Infinite.
~Enjoy!

Aww, Great!
Red sneakers hit the ground, a thundering march in close pursuit.
I try to help my bro out, and now I got the Empire on my back!
Screams and shouts echoed from confused and frightened citizens as they leapt out of the way.
A strongly built guard, a female cougar, leaped forward and toppled on top of her target; a green, teenaged hedgehog named Manic. Manic grunted and struggled underneath the strong grip of the cougar as additional soldiers arrived to restrain him.
"You are coming with us."
He looked over at the female guard, who had a silver and black mask concealing everything on her face except the muzzle, her fur was a light brown. Her armor, which used the same color palette as her mask, shimmered with her fury, the black chainmail fabric in between the silver plates added a eerie effect to her overall appearance.
The black on her mask was arranged in different cube-like shapes all over, reminding Manic of the shape of the Phantom Rubies.
"Just hope you're at the mercy of the Empress." She snarled in a furious voice, keeping a fierce grip on Manic frightfully close to his neck.
He gasped as she forced him upright, he noticed that all the guards had masks with the exact cube pattern as the cougar; they were a mixture of male and female.
Manic knew the strength of the Empire.
The guards, however menacing they may be, may not have been capable to stop him, but the Emperor and Empress could kill him with a thought.
You would not be caught dead supporting a rebellion above ground.
The only city that really existed that supported freedom was Refuge City, miles underground, but their short-lived rebellion existed only in writing; the real freedom fighters had perished before the Jackal Empire even existed, during the chaotic time of uproar between the start of the Eggman Empire and its violent overthrow.
