Are you Ready?

The creatures' arms teared up and reformed into claws, the golden eyes focused on the grass, waiting. A red target shooted up and his eyes marked it. He slowly lifted his foot and started a sudden sprint with his other. He sticked his right claw through the target, his eyes cold while shattering the it. Another target popped up from the corner of his eye and he slashed it, followed by a kick on the next target. He continues destroying targets, no emotion on his face, no move wasted. The last target was the main target. Also known as, his masters' adversary. The metal Mobian burnt the image of him in his mind - or his artificial brain, to be more specific. After all, he was his primary target.

Battle Sequence Completed.

Return to Reality.

The details of the forest dissolves like deleted data. The veil disappeared and there was a white wall. A door opened and there was his master, clapping.

"Well done, I.C.E.!" The man applauded. "The results were higher than expected. I think you are ready for your first mission."

A cream-coloured rabbit was walking along the side-walk. The sun was setting and the rush-hour was starting fade. The rabbit then observed the people. She then suddenly hit something hard and fell on her bottom. The black behind turns around and a nasty expression spread on his face. A Thug. And they weren't alone.

"Watch where you are going!" He spat. The others snickered and chuckled. The leader turned around and they fell silent.

"I'm sorry!" She pleaded, unable to get up.

"Why don't you pick on somebody your own size?" A voice interrupted them. A bright light from behind created a silhouette of a canine. Around the same time a blue blur rushed around the gang of thugs. It then curled into a blue ball and hurled on the side of the bully.

"Sonic!" the rabbit cheered.

"Hey, Cream!" Sonic saluted. One of the thugs stood up on his feet and he notices a scratch on his leather jacket. He was suddenly furious. He ran towards the blue hedgehog, with his fist up. Cream takes a glimpse and widened her eyes,

"Sonic, look out!" The hedgehog turned around, and his eyes widened; he didn't have the time to react and then was startled by how the thug then suddenly went down, his nose uneven to his face. His heart almost stopped by how fast it went by.

"Whoops. I didn't mean to." A grey canine was sitting on the thug just before Sonic got a beating. His gold eyes focused on the remaining. They shivered and ran the opposite direction, person by person. He sat up and walked to Cream.

"Are you okay?" He asked with a smile, his voice soft. He stretched his hand out to the sitting bunny and she shyly took it.

"Hey," Sonic greeted, "Thanks for saving me earlier, Mr..."

"Zero," He put his hand to his chest, "Zero Celsius."

"Right! Thanks, Zero!" Sonic gave a thumbs-up. Zero flings his backpack over his shoulder. "You're leaving already?"

"Ah, yes." He looked at him, "I'm simply passing this country."

"But you haven't even seen the place," Sonic crossed his arms, pouting. Zero sighs and gives a small smile.

"You know what they say, 'Sometimes you need to stop and smell the flowers.'" Sonic punched in the air and gave a triumphant,'yes'.

"You can stay by us!" Cream tugged on the rough fabric of Zero's sleeveless jacket. "It'd be nice to have someone like you around." Her smile made Zero speechless. That innocent smile. As Cream waved bye-bye to the hedgehog and the canine,

"Wanna race?" Sonic asked, rather fast. Zero didn't follow.

"Good, see ya later!" Sonic dashed out on the street.

"Huh? W-wait!" Zero called, "That's not fair! I wasn't ready! Sonic!"
