How It All Began

Act 2: Break Out

(Small confession, I looked up a bunch of names that started with the letter S, and picked Sothis way before Three Houses was an idea. This was back in 2016 where I worked on the original copy of this story until that was lost and destroy somewhere on my old laptop. Either way, that was a coincidence. Next, uh, out of all the Sonic games, I actually haven't played Unleashed yet I've watched the cutscenes for it. Should I play it? Tell me! I've played like... Colors, Generations, Dark Chronicles, Forces, the Rush Series, Sonic 06, Mania, and attempted to play Sonic Free Riders. Sigh... That's a lot of games I've played from this blue hedgehog. Welp! Enjoy!)

(Sorely's POV)

                 I groaned as I woke up and found myself in a dungeon. I could practically hear Rob's nagging voice saying "I told you so". I saw my hands in chains and against the wall. Well, I don't know how I am going to get myself out of here. I looked around and saw a window with bars covering it. I can't get out there... Think! There has to be a way out of here...

"Hello?" a voice called out to me in a whisper.

"Uh, hi?" I asked as I looked around for the source of the voice.

"Where am I?" the voice asked nervously.

Wait, the voice isn't aware where it is? That's a bit odd.

"We are in a dungeon" I said as I shrugged.

At least this voice can keep my company or drive me insane. Whichever comes first, I guess.

"What?! This is my temple!" the voice boomed loudly.

I cringed at how loud and high the voice is. Wait a temple? I thought I was in the castle's dungeon. I don't see how this place could possible be a temple.

"Hm. I don't like this. My temple is not supposed to be treated like this!" the voice said as he sighed, "Wait a minute, I've got an idea. I can help you get out of those chains, but can you help me out?"

"Uh, sure. I don't want to die here" I said with a nervous chuckle.

I wonder how a voice is going to get me out of here. Just then, a green light flashed, and the chains released me. I felt my wrists as I looked around to see the cell doors gone! Alright, this is a bit creepy.

"I've still got it! I hope I won't have to do that much though. That still takes a lot out of me. Ok, then walk down the hallway until you find a bracelet" the voice said seriously.

"Got it" I said as I quietly walked out of the cell and went down the hallway, "But what about the guards?"

"Don't worry about them. I can handle them!" the voice reassured me.

I rolled my eyes as I mumbled, "That's reassuring"

I quickly ran down the tunnel, but I found a wall. I looked around and didn't see anything else.

"It's supposed to be here!" the voice shouted annoyed, "Hm, maybe you can punch the wall"

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" I asked as I looked at the wall.

"Yeah! I think you should be fine" the voice reassured.

I walked to end of the hallway and found a broken-up wall. I drew my fist back and punched the wall. The wall began to shake and crumble. The voice just sighed as I continued down the hallway. I then saw a table with a golden bracelet on top of it.

"Great! Now put it on!" the voice shouted in delight as I looked at the bracelet.

"Alright! Alright!" I said annoyed as I took the bracelet and put it on.
