Hello people! I'm back with the remake of Project Dark Emerald. In this remake I decided to stick with the original plot with a few changes. The rating is T to be safe, but I might change it to M in later chapters, I mean who knows what'll happen to Sonic and his friends! I thought the story might suck to you but everyone has given me courage to continue writing. I know I scheduled it to be 2014 so it's sorta my fault... So here it is, everybody! The first chapter of the remake!

Prologue: Sonic's Nightmare
SONIC'S POV
CRASH! I had crashed into Eggman's base to stop him once again once I found out he was planning to conquer the world with the chaos emeralds again which he had managed to collect them all. I was on my own this time. Tails had decided to stay in his workshop and fix the plane (which Eggman had wrecked it the other day...) Amy and Cream are out shopping with Miss Vanilla (which was a relief that Amy didn't tag along with me.) and Knuckles is guarding his precious Master Emerald (as usual).
Anyway back to the main subject.
"FIRE!" And the battle is on.
I started destroying every robot Eggman sent at me. I distracted the first robot by following me, making it collide with another and sparkle with static electricity. For the next robot I turned around and smacked my rear and blew out a raspberry to taunt it. This made it angry and it used its hands to grab me, but me, being the Fastest Thing Alive, jumped in the air quickly and did a homing attack to destroy it and landed on the ground. I put a smug smile on my muzzle and rubbed my hands in victory. But it's not over yet, I've still got Eggman to deal and I knew he'd be somewhere in his new robot.
I ran down the corridors to find Eggman but on my way more robots came to attack and I used my boost to destroy them by its impact. Little did I know that Eggman was spying on me by using the cameras and instead getting angry about how I always stop him, he smirked with evil.
"Hahaha! Perfect! Into my trap! Soon that blasted hedgehog will face serious consequences with the Chaos Emeralds! Hahaha!" He turned behind him and there stood the Chaos Emeralds glowing...quite an unusual color...
Back with me, I had finally destroyed them and as I continued on, a surge of energy could be felt inside me and it grew stronger and stronger. I must be getting close to emeralds and Eggman.
When I had finally got to the control room, I was confused to find Eggman missing and just the emeralds sitting there and floating. I hesitatingly walked towards them and an idea struck in my head. I'll use the emeralds to turn into Super Sonic and use this advantage to destroy his latest invention. But my thoughts were interrupted by a sound of a machine. I snapped back into reality to find myself trapped in a container and then Eggman appeared.
"Hohohoho! Thank you for completing my plan, Sonic! Soon the world will enter my command!" Realization hit me. All along, it had been a trap! The scientist just continued. "These Chaos Emeralds are corrupted so I can use them to turn you evil and work for me!"
My eyes widened and my muzzle turned white in pure horror. "N-no..No. NO! Please don't, Eggman!" I thrashed around and tried to use my spindash to break the glass, but not a single crack formed and I was hit back. "Nice try, Sonic, but this is made of unbreakable glass, you'll never escape this time." I shouted at him in desperation but he ignored me and pressed a button on his control pad. I carried on yelling but they faded away when I felt strange electrical energy coursing and then things got really bad.
The pain inside me increased and the Chaos Emeralds started going haywire and all of a sudden they turned into a lifeless back and I let out a loud scream as I feel like I was transforming. I turned golden yellow and my eyes turned red as Super Sonic, but the worse wasn't over yet. I looked at one of my gloves and gasped in fear when I saw it ripping into shreds and nails sprouting out. I carried on transforming until the machine exploded. Eggman covered his face with his arm and lowered it once the dust cleared.
"HAHAHAHA! Well done, Doctor Robotnik! You've freed me!"
Eggman turned from glee to fear as he looked at me. I looked terrifying! At my appearance, I was like my super form but there are some changes. My nails were sprouted out like I witnessed and so did my socks. My irises disappeared and replace by red swirling and the quills were split making it look rather messy. Eggman backed away.
"Sonic. Please-I-" He was cut off when I flew towards him and raised my hand to cut him. Everything turned dark as some shredding can be heard though the blackness.
"Sonic! Wake up! You're having nightmares again!"
"Huh?"
"SONIC!"
My eyes shot open and everything turned out to be blurry at first. In front of me was yellow figure in front of me. Finally my vision cleared and there was Tails sitting on my bed with a worried look in his eyes. I sat up and tried my best to smile at Tails. "Hey, buddy, what's up?" He raised an eyebrow and looked at me strangely. "Are you okay, Sonic? That's the third nightmare in less than a week."
"Y-yeah. I'm okay. I-I-It's just..." I stammered, trying to find words to explain it. "Just...*sigh*...I'm not sure who to explain this..."
Tails sighed. "Well, never mind...Let's go and have some breakfast."
Tails left the room but I didn't follow him. I sat still on my bed and thought deeply. That's the third time of the same dream. But...Wasn't it all a dream...or a vision? I snapped out of my thoughts just as Tails called me down.
"Sonic! Come on!"
"Oh. Coming!"
