Yea. It was fine, Tai! Just remember that Sonic CANNOT go to sleep until it's time for him to go to a different time. No matter how much he wants to(yes, he'll still yawn and give off that 'need-to-sleep' vibe). It shoulde be the end of the chapter when he does fall asleep, but I don't really care, it's your choice.

rofl, I didn't think Knuckles and Rouge were something not like an old couple.. o.o *always pictured 'em that way*
poor Sonic... if I had tripped while going as fast as him, I would've crash landed and rolled for a while into a tree ((remember the Physics of the gravitational pull, motion and what not...))
good story!! can't wait for something hyper & very confusing to happen xD
((if you haven't noticed yet; I'm hyper out of my mind and in a bit of a hurry...))

((Yay! Insperation!))
After yet more tiresome explanations were exchanged, it was finally safe to say that everyone was up to speed. Especially Sonic now that he had finished straightening his quills.
"So," he said after brushing dust off of his person. "Where is this place, anyway? I giant mansion in the middle of the woods shouldn't be too hard to find, right?"
"Uh, Sonic..." Stripes bit his bottom lip a little before continuing. "I'm guessing that when you time traveled here, your memory was effected pretty badly. It's been exactly two years today that you've been gone. I had heard last year that you had beaten Eggman, and that he had returned here."
"Wait a second!" Sonic shouted, snapping his fingers. "That means I've gone back five years in the past! Or, three years for you guys, or maybe it was....uh! I hate time travel!"
"I think we can deal with that problamo later, bro," Manic butted in. "Right now we got a ring to find and a town to save. I don't know about you guys, but I've got this weird feeling...like somethin' bad's gonna happen, y'know?"
"Manic's right," Stripes said, finally getting the facts straight in his head. Time traveling realy wore down one's mind, and he felt sorry for Sonic. He didn't know why he was time traveling, or how for that matter.
"I am?" Manic spoke up, a curious expression on his face. "I hadn't spoken for awhile, so I thought I'd say something."
"Only you," Knuckles muttered with a small smile, shaking his head with his hand on his forehead.
"You're so cute when you're conf-" Rouge started before Tania gave her the 'I'll-Kill-You-Without-A-Moment's-Hesitation-And-Not-Give-A-Crap' look. She gulped and folded her arms across her chest.
In the end, everybody decided to just go look for the place. They figured it would look old and worn down, with vines snaking around every inch and crevese of it. None of them had actually seen it in person before, they thought they might as well wing it.
*Sorry, but that's all for now. Is it any good*

I know! Not that I'm saying I've ever Time-Travelled, but still. XD As for if Sonic was in the past or the future, still remains to be seen.

((Okay, I'm back! ^o^))
Chapter Four~The Castle Maze
"You have GOT to be kidding me," Tania gasped. After about two hours of running through thorn bushes, prickly vines, and fallen logs, the group had finally made it to their destination. At least, it appeared to be that way. They were standing in front of a 10-foot stone wall that had started to crumble from age and being unattended to. Dead vines curled along the wall, showing just how old the building really was. The only thing that wasn't there that they had pictured there would be was anything standing in the center of the place, or anywhere in it for that matter.
"You're sure this is the right place?" Rouge asked, perching atop a nearby tree branch. She wiped some sweat from her brow with a white golve and fanned her face with her hand. "Doesn't look like a castle to me. There's nothing inside but more walls in criss-crossing patterns."
"I never said it would be a castle," Stripes said as he attempted to climb a snarling vine, only to have it snap at the slightest bit of weight put upon it. "I believe I used the word 'structure'. And what do you mean 'criss-crossing'?"
"I mean 'criss-crossing' as in you lead us to a maze. A labryinth. A place with many paths, but no exits..."
"I know what a maze is, Rouge. I'm not ignorant to thses things y'know."
"Hun, you live on the streets. How in the world do you expect me to kn-" A sudden cloud of dust erupted from the side of the wall, pieces of the rock falling to the bare forest floor in pebbles.
"Do we really have time to be bickering?" Knuckles asked as he blew some smoke and dust from his Knuckles. He had a small smile about his face, impressed with his own strength. "I'm not taking the time to wonder around a flipping maze until next week. I'll just punch some holes in the wall, Sonic will zoom through, find the best path and voila! Problem solved!"
"Or I could just fly from above and give you all the best route to take," Rouge suggested.
"I don't trust you're directions as far as I can throw you," Tania replied with a yawn. "And I'm pretty sure I can throw you at least five feet, sweety."
"Why don't you guys have a contest?" Manik suggested. "That way, we'll see who gets the directions right, and faster at that."
"This won't turn out good," Sonic said with a smile as he shook his head.
((How's that for now?))

And Manik and Sonia, for that matter. SONIC WOULD NOT HAVE CHILDREN. OR A GIRLFRIEND. T.T And he ESPECIALLY wouldn't be a KING. ... He'd leave the royal duties to Sonia. ;; Uhhhh, anyway, that was so offtopic... ;;;;; I like. I like lots.

*Okay guys, here's more!*
Sonic, Stripes, Tania, and Manic slumped to the ground, trying to regain the energy they had lost while traveling. Besides, they knew how this would all play out. Knuckles would bash all of the walls in trying to get to the center of the maze, while Rouge would fly from above and try to beat him there. Then they would fight about who found it in the first place.
No sooner had these thoughts crossed everybody's minds then a crashing of stone was heard, and Knuckles quickly vanished in a newly formed hole in the wall. Another crashing sound echoed soon after, followed by more.
"I guess Knuckles is as impatient as I am," Sonic joked as Rouge flapped her leathery black wings, soaring over the maze and vanishing from site. "Either that, or he he has a thing against ancient structures."
Not much was said during the hour that Knuckles and Rouge where gone 'trying to find' the temple's center. Clouds of brown dust arose in the sky every so often, and stones thudding against earth could be heard in the distance. After another few minutes, however, all noise ceased completely, and the scene was deadly silent.
"I have a bad feeling, man," Manic said, raising to his feet. "Don't you think one of them would have found the stupid entrance by now? And even if they hadn't, it isn't like them to not say something after being gone for so long. Somethin's up, I can feel it..."
"I'll go have a look," Sonic suggested as he got to his feet and stretched. He was pretty tired, and sitting for so long had made his legs numb. He didn't have time to sleep, though, and what better way to catch up with his buddies than by doing what he did best? Stretching to the ground like a racer, Sonic took off, the backfire of wind ripping up fallen leaves and grass blades. Stripes could have sworn he saw smoke araising Sonic's takeoff point.
After a few moments of hesitant listening, a cry was heard. It was from Sonic, but the cry wasn't what was unnerving. What was creepy was the words the cry had been spoken in.
"What in Mobius-?!"
Then Sonic's laughter filled the air, sending flickies flying from their nests. Wondering what could possibly be so funny, Stripes and the rest of the gang went into the labryinth. The followed large holes punched into the crumbling walls, leading in zig-zag like patterns. After a while of walking they eventually came across the cause of Rouge and Knuckles' absence.
"You have got to be kidding me," Stripes laughed as he shook his head. Manic fell to the ground laughing, and Tania practically had to shove a fist in her mouth to keep from giggling too much.
Apparently Rouge and Knuckles had found the entryway, but it was blocked off by a net of entangled vines. Rouge had tried to break through it before Knuckles could even get to it, and in doing so had gotten herself ensnared in the weeds. Knuckles had tried to set her free, but he misjudged how much strength he needed and had broken so many vines that Rouge-along with the weeds-and crashed ontop of him, trapping them both.
"Do you have any idea," Tania blurted out as Sonic used his super sonic speed to free the tangled duo. "How ridiculous you both look?"
"I don't think jungle wear suits you two," Manic gasped, finally controlling himself enough to speak.
"How would you like to be sleeping in a bed of this stuff?" Knuckles growled as he stood up.
"This won't do for my complexion!" Rouge complained as she used her fingers to curl her hair down.
*Sorry this is so short. I gotta go eat. Feedback please! ^o^*

*You can now veiw this fanfic at fanfiction.net. ^o^*
"What...is this place?" Manic asked, walking past the cut down vines. A small stone door covered with dust blocked any further passage. Curious, Manic took a gloved hand to the door and wiped some of the grim away. His eyes widened as he scanned the smooth surface of the stone.
"Guys?" he spoke, turning to his companions. "There's like, no handle here. How are we supposed to get in?"
Wondering what was going on, evertbody rushed to the spot at once. However, when they all stood before the door, something very unexpected happened: the ground gave way beneath them.
"AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!" everyone cried out in suprise as they plumetted into darkness. Stripes, Sonic, Manic, Tania, and Knuckles all tried to grab onto something, but from what they felt the sides of the tunnel were slimy and had nothing to support them. Suddenly a hard surface rose up beneath them, and they all fell into a single crumpled heap.
"You guys look like you could use a hand," Rouge said sweetly as she landed safely on the ground a few feet away. "Or a pair of wings for each of you. Hahahaha!"
"Splendid idea," Tania growled as she sprung from the pile and hurled herself at Rouge. "How about I rip off yours and use them for some tissue?!"
At that moment the room was flooded with light, causing everybody to shield their eyes with their arms. When they had adjusted to the sudden brightness, they saw they were in a large, square room with a pillar in the middle, a single door on each of the walls. The light was coming from the pillar, which appeared to be made out of some sort of crystal.
"Oh, I get it!" Knuckles cried out. He walked up to the pillar and placed a gloved hand on it. Even through the white cloth he could tell it was cool to the touch. "The sunlight carries down the shaft we fell through, then hits the surface of this structure. The thing must be made of some sort of crystal, which catches the sunlight and reflects it throughout the room, making everything visible. Very clever..."
"Dude, what' are these scribbles?" Manic asked, walking up to the statue and pointing at it's center. "It looks like some kinda puzzle."
"Let me see," Stripes suggested, squeezing inbetween Manic and Knuckles. For a few minutes he just looked over the markings. Then his eyes lit up and he snapped his fingers.
"I've got it!" he cried. His voice echoed in the semi-empty room, making everybody jump a little. "It's a riddle. If we can solve it, then we cam probably find the Theif's Ring!"
"So what's it say, bro?" Manic asked.
Stripes repeated the following inscription:
One light, four doors One leads to doom, the other to peril One to destruction, another to oblivion Make the one and four a five And see the treasure left for theives
"Bro, I know that look," Manic said suddenly, looking at Stripes' face. "You always look like that when you're on the verge of solving a problem. You always seem to zone out, and you get so quiet."
"I know what it means," Stripes answered, trying to keep the worry out of his voice. "But if we go any further, we might very well lose our lives. The answer is written within the problem. But this particular equation means that we must work together. Or else..."
"Or else...what?"
"Or else...we all will perish within no later than fifteen seconds."
~End of Chapter Four
