Sonic AU August Day 2: Memories
(Feel free to drop a character name in the ask box for their memories.)
Memory of fighting. The sound of shouts and weapons crashing.
Memory of quiet. Laughs from chao as they play on the island he is tasked with surveying.
Memory of chaos. The world suddenly being torn apart from a creature from above. Trying to hold on before being swept away.
Memory of awakening. Awaking into a new body, with no ability to recall what happened before. A Robot Master now. Gizoid in a distant past.
Memory of before. Helping the doctors as they make their plans to make the first full line of Robot Masters. Helping keeping the lab clean and tidy. Helping making sure the doctors stayed healthy.
Memory of finding. A small hedgehog stumbling into their home, lost and confused. Hungry and scared. There is helping here too. Helping the child know he's safe and cared for.
Memory of adopting. Giving Sonic his name and adding him into this odd family of roboticists and robots. Gaining a little brother.
Memory of betrayal. Wily deciding he had enough. Turning their family against them in order to get what he wants.
Memories of fear and courage. Staring at the fear in the faces of his remaining family members. His father. His twin. His little brother. Feeling the fear of what was happening.
The feeling of responsibility and courage as he steps forward. "I'll stop Wily." The looks of awe and confusion. This is the right thing to do.
That's how you become a hero, right?
Memory of being found. The memories before this are foggy as best. But the hunger and the need for shelter are clear in his mind. Breaking into a home was not his smartest idea but he figured he'd be fast enough to not be a problem. But he was found... by a very human looking robot.
Memory of care. Since the first moment they saw each other, Rock did his best to show care. To be gentle and soothing. To make sure to be a teacher and caretaker. It was strange.
Memory of acceptance. Of becoming part of the household. Learning that mechanical engineering was not something he cared for. Learning how Rock and Roll liked to keep the place clean and given a proper name. Memory of always feeling like he belonged there even before the adoption was official. There was no need for running away.
Memory of fear. How scary it was for Wily to turn his back on them. To see those he grew up around start destroying the place. How scary it was when Rock took up the mantle of becoming a hero. Worried for everyone to be safe.
Memory of inspiration. To be like Rock. To take on the responsibility of trying to fix what Wily had done. To also become a hero. To help his brother. To keep those he cares about safe.
Memory of finding. An orphaned mobian like him. A small fox with no where to go. Someone who needed food and shelter like him. Extending the care. Expanding the family.
