*Shudders* I just woke up from a nightmare... The following is all from memory so I may have left something out. It all starts with me getting out of bed, it's a normal morning at my house and I head to get some cereal. My younger brother is already there and says, "Good morning sleepy head." "Mornin'." I reply back. As I walk towards the kitchen, I find my dad is making eggs and says, "Good morning, it's time you woke up." I reply, "Morning and isn't it the weekend?" "Yes, but your friends are here, at least be up at a decent time." I glance at the oven to see that it's 9:47. I guess I turn into quite the lazy bum... I grab some eggs and head to the living room to find that... The Freedom Fighters are here? "Ah, there you are. Your brother wasn't kidding when he said that you like to sleep in." Sally says to me. "Might want to change and gear up, we're going to leave soon." Tails adds. I set my eggs down head back to my room. As I'm walking back, changed and all, I take a detour out to the back yard. Next thing I know I'm standing in the middle of a prairie. The sky is dark and stormy. I turn to see that have injured my left arm somehow. I look to my right, and there I see Shadow the Hedgehog... Suddenly the prairie and the world around me is ablaze. Shadow says to me, "I've given you enough time, where's the emerald?" "Even if I knew, why would I tell you?" I yell. "Because you wouldn't want your family hurt, would you? Nyahahaha!" Dr. Eggman laughs behind me, in which I whip around to look at him. I see him... With my mother and a gun pointed at her head. My mom says, "You know what will happen if they get it, no matter what, don't gi-" Eggman smacks the side of her head, "Now, now, don't be like that, you DO want to be with your family again, right?" Eggman chuckles. An explosion is heard in the near distance, as they glance at it, I rush towards Eggman. He fires at me, only for me to dodge the bolt and smack him in the face. I turn around to see Shadow had sidestepped said bolt and almost got hit. "Chaos c-" Shadow gets cut off by Sonic who kicks him in the back of the head, knocked out. Seeing this I say to Sonic, "Close call there." "Eh, you know me." He replied. I hear a blast behind me. My other arm gets hit, it feels like I lost control over it and burns like you can't imagine. As I'm on the ground, I can see Sonic run to Eggman, who repeatedly tries shooting Sonic, who repeatedly dodges the bolts. As my eyesight fades, I see some Freedom Fighter members coming up. "Are you okay?...." And then I woke up, gasping. That was the most interesting, scary, and worst dream yet... I think I've gotten my fill on close calls. But the fact that it involved my own mother almost killed? That was the nightmare right there.
