Sonic hit the ground hard thankfully a lifetime of fighting evil gave him the instincts to not just take the hit but get back up and keep fighting. Rolling into a ball Sonic got his feet under him and sprang backwards landing on his feet. This was the first time he noticed that something was off. He was in the middle of a city but it wasn't New Yoke, the bright blue skies attested to that much.

"Woah Time Out!" Sonic called as the robotic doppelganger that had been set on him moved in for a follow up attack.

"Time Out??! Oh, I get it. 'Cause you're getting your butt kicked and you need a breather so i don't beat you down harder." Chaos Sonic replied. "sorry blue blot this isn't a game there is no pause!" Chaos Sonic screamed out and charged... all of two inches before he was suspended in mid air by a teal glow. "que?"

"Nope. There's already too many metal sonics around, "You are out of here." Sonic turned to find himself looking at a very busty silvery white furred hedgehog in a black body suit sporting glowing teal circles. "good bye" with a clench of her fist Chaos Sonic crumpled into a singular lump of metal. "Sonic?"

Sonic blinked eyes flicking from the seemingly implacable foes wreckage to his apparent rescuer. "Uh yeah, have we met?"

"Oh boy it's one of these... okay..." the hedgehog lady said before pointing down the street. "you see that big tower with the gemstone topper?"

Sonic turned his head and beheld a tower that seemed to have the Paradox Prism's clean cut cousin resting atop it. "yeah, kinda hard to miss."

"Good. Now what I need you to do is go sit in the lobby of that building while my friends clean up the mess here. Tell them Silver sent you and that it is a code D6."

"But I was kinda in the middle of a fight with somebody." Sonic glanced at the wreckage of Chaos Sonic. "Besides that guy."

"The army of bizzarro Eggman mechs? we have it covered." Silver said before gesturing at the building a second time. "Don't make me take you."

"I'll..." Sonic was about to spout off something defiant when he recalled the pile of scrap that had been kicking his butt moments earlier. "... Get right on that." Sonic said before taking off.

--

"hi uh Silver sent me here, said to tell you it is a D6, but didn't explain what that means." Sonic said to the lynx lady behind the counter.

"A D6? on date night... Oooh this is gonna get rough." The Lynx said before flicking down a visor and taping keys in the air. "oh this is a D10 situation..." The lynx sighed. "The good news is we have prepared a briefing for what's going on. The bad news is that you are gonna have to wait a bit while we gather your friends and other relevant parties up. So Sonic if you would-"

"Okay, how come everyone in this space knows my name? like the other shatter spaces everybody thought i was a stranger." Sonic interrupted.

"That's one of the questions we will answer after we have the full crew located." the lynx declared, giving him a withering look. "Go sit in the presentation room." she pointed to a door just to her left.

---

Sonic started awake as Nine, Rusty Rose, Rebel Rouge, Denizen 1998 and Renegade Knucks popped into the room one after the other. Mangey, Prim, Thorn, Flicky, Hangry, Gnarly appeared in roughly the same manner and Sonic thought it looked like how Shadow teleports. seconds later Sails, Black Rose, Catfish, Batten and Dread were also dropped into the room. Sonic was shocked when the whole of the Egg council appeared bound in egg shaped pods that floated gently to the ground. Finally Shadow appeared bouncing off a wall as he had been mid charge apparently.

"Now then." The big screen that had been empty up until this point flared to life. Sonic was slightly pleased to note it was that pretty lynx lady from the counter. "Now that we are all gathered an explanation can be given for what's going on. Sorry for any rough treatment you might have endured getting here. Except for you, eggheads, you had that coming." Most of the room laughed and Sonic could hear the Egg council muttering filth and foul.

"My Name is Nicole, I will be walking you through what's going on and generally helping you get oriented with your living situation." The lynx introduced herself with a smile and wave. "There's no easy way to tell you this. Reality as you know it is at an end." everyone in the room was in stunned silence. "imagine if you will reality is a bubble." Nicole said holding out her hand and having a translucent blue sphere appear. "Recently your reality was destabilized." Chunks of the sphere in Nicole's hands turned different colors. "this can happen for a wide variety of reasons but in this case we detect the cause to be a surge of power of immense quantities." Shadow glared at Sonic but the blue blur was fixated on the screen. "in events like these there are a few possibilities. the first being that reality restabilizes." the sphere in her hand returned to being blue. "Reality fragments." the multi colored sections of the sphere drifted apart becoming smaller spheres. "Reality Reconfigures." the sphere turned pure red. "Reality Dissolves utterly." the sphere faded away. "in your case though your reality was on a harmonious frequency with our own resulting in it being absorbed almost totally seamlessly." Nicole explained the sphere being sucked into a larger green sphere. "those of you present in this room are the few elements that did not just become integrated with our world." Silence filled the room.

Rusty spoke first. "What exactly does that mean for us?"

Silver took the stage alongside a softly gold colored tenrec. "Hi, we'll cover this section. My name is Silver The Hedgehog."

"My name is Gold the Tenrec. We are experts in chrono-spacial distortions and how reality can be altered by them." Gold explained.

"As a Time traveler I can confirm that New Yoke city, Bosscage maze, and the No-place have all fully integrated with the timeline as if they were always a part of this world and for most of you this means you can in a sense go home again.

"understand that this integration means that your homes now have a totally different history because they have been subjected to the history of this world." Gold cautioned. "its entirely possible that these locations do not exist in the modern world and that they no longer exist as you know them."

"So where do we go if they aren't around anymore?" Prim asked.

Silver and Gold shared a brief look, before Nicole retook the stage.

"With a few notable exceptions, you can be granted citizenship in the Kingdom of Acorn ug." Nicole winced. "Sorry, the Kingdom of Forestry. From there we can see to your health and well being.

"Notable exceptions? Who and why are they excluded?" Nine said and for the first time Sonic realized his mechanical tails were locked together.

"Mr.dr.Eggman, Dr.Deep, Dr.Done-it, Dr.Don't, and Dr.Babble. Because they are going to be executed as enemies of the state." Nicole said with a smile that was smug and slightly sinister. "because we already dealt with one version of Robotnik and we don't want another let alone five."

"Hey Dr.Babble is just a baby." Sonic found himself pointing out.

"He's smart enough to build a war machine, he's smart enough to be executed for building a war machine." Nicole replied.

"Can't really argue with that logic." Shadow declared a dark smile on his features.

"Shadow the hedgehog can't be granted citizenship because legally he is already a citizen of Space Colony Ark. Which is just some legalese we have to sort out with the Shadow of this reality. and seeing as it is date night he's unavailable at the moment." Nicole said and Shadow looked distinctly disturbed for some reason.

"Lastly Sonic the hedgehog can't be granted status because of a similar legal issue involving our own version of the fastest thing alive." Nicole paused. "While the rest of you have local variants you are distinct enough legally. though the echidna's may want to move to Angel Island which has its own legal issues."

"So is that it, are we free to go?" Nine asked his two organic tails, lashing the air in irritation.

"Ah there is one thing that needs explaining before we let you go. The potential for infection."

"What like Scurvy?" Sails injected.

"The Futa Virus." Nicole said and everyone exchanged confused glances. "you may or may not have noticed but every single Mobian that calls this reality home is of the same gender."

"So it wasn't my imagination after all." Shadow muttered just loud enough for Sonic to hear.

"Futanari or Futas for short are simultaneously Male and female capable of bearing and siring children." Nicole informed the group. “This world initially had Mobians of male or female until a virus began to spread. Primarily it spreads through sexual contact, that is if you have sex with a Futa you become a Futa."

"I don't want to live on this planet." Doctor Don't said plainly disgusted.

"Other vectors for infection include saliva if ingested and blood to blood transfusion."

"Thank goodness I am free of fear."

"No, actually you aren't. The futa virus can afflict machines." Nicole replied.

"That's insane." Mr.Dr.Eggman said "how can inorganic material be affected by a virus?"

"because it's a magically empowered virus. There is no cure for the Futa virus because no one who catches it wants one. There are a number of benefits to the virus. Firstly the virus is well known to cure any other infection, purge the system of toxins and heal major injuries as if they had never occurred. as an example, Bunny Rabbot-D'Coolete." Nicole said displaying an image of a rabbit lady with metal legs and arms. "Before and after Futa." The rabbit’s metal limbs were replaced with more organic limbs. "and as further evidence Metal Sonic before exposure." Sonic and the rest of the group recoiled at the sight of the robotic doppelganger. "After his transformation into Synth Sonic." Sonic tilted his head to the side as he was presented with what looked like a mostly female version of himself with shinier fur."

"So if it can even infect machinery, how do we avoid catching it?" Thorn asked.

"Well quite simply it's less a matter of if you will catch it but more like when." Nicole declared. "Not that anyone intends to force you to change but the simple matter is that unless you custom make your tools, cook all of your food from scratch at home and don't get any medical treatments you are going to be exposed at some point. As mentioned the futa virus can afflict inorganic material but for most objects this simply means becoming a passive infection vector."

"So what then we should just expose ourselves now and get it over with?" Rebel asked.

"If you would, there are a number of options for doing so, some of them are non-sexual." Nicole replied.

"hard pass I'm getting out of here and leaving this reality behind." Nine declared.

"unless you particularly like the idea of being erased from any reality i suggest you not attempt that."

"Well why not you freaky feline?!" Dr. Done-it interjected.

"With the exceptions of Sonic And Shadow none of you are complete enough to exist on your own. All of you are derivative variants of one of the following. Amy Rose, Big the Cat, Eggman, Knuckles the echidna, Miles "tails" Prower, or Rouge The bat." Nicole said flashing images of the relevant person up on screen. "while you are physically complete and resemble some aspects of these people it's... Like making a partial copy. Each of you is your own person but that person is only a singular element of the original person."

"I'm Nine not Tails not Miles or whoever these weirdos are!" Nine said gesturing at Mangey and Sails who both gave him a stink eye. "I'm not going to sit here and-" Nine fell to the ground twitching as sparks shot off his metallic tails.

"Hi, I'm Tails and you are a transparently evil version of myself." said the yellow vixen that walked into the room. holding the small device that had electrocuted Nine. "So let me take a wild stab in the dark. You were bullied for having two tails but there was no one there to inspire you to be a better person. Instead of embracing your natural gifts you weaponized your mind and body and chose to live in seclusion." The vixen turned to Sonic. "That sound about right to you?"

Sonic nodded at the vixen who beamed at him just like his Tails used to. "Misanthropy never got anyone a better life. And in your case it's gonna land you in special rehabilitation."

"Wait!" Sonic called out. "What are you gonna do with him?"

the vixen smiled. "Oh nothing too serious, we are gonna put him into therapy."

"You'll never break me!" Nine shouted defiantly as he was hefted up onto Tail's shoulder.

"You're already broken! We're just putting you back together." Tails declared exiting the room.

"Okay so uh that aside the futa thing. will it really be unavoidable?" Black Rose asked.

"To our current knowledge, yes." Nicole replied.

Hangry lifted his hand, the giant cat waving his arm back and forth to be noticed faster. "If I become a futa or whatever, can I eat more?"

Nicole licked her lips at the mention of food. "Well not more than you can now but certainly more than you would be able too if you were trying to avoid it."

"I'm in!" Hangry called out.

"Same!" Gnarly declared.

"Woof! Arf!" Magey barked seemingly in agreement.

Prim slapped her forehead. "Look, I think I need to meet Rouge before I make any decisions."

"Aye, that would be a wise course." Batten responded.

"Seems like a decent course of action if she's really a version of us then we can see the outcome for all of us.” Rebel added

"Rebel's got the right idea. I want to see this Knuckles character before I let my body get all twisted."

As they conversed Nicole was quietly placing graphics on the screen displaying who would be taking what actions.

Dread shook his head. "This futa matter be nothing but crashing waves to my ears, I want to return to the sea and bring my hearties along for a celebration of survivin' and the plundering."

"I'm with the captain, let's get out there and... we don't have a boat anymore." Sails said deflating as he realized the terrible truth.

Black Rose looked at her crew mates and then over to Rusty and Thorn. "Well if neither of you are gonna say it, I think we should meet up with Amy and see how she handled the Futa shenanigans." Thorn and Rusty both nodded.

"Okay that means I just need details from the two other cats and the two hedgehogs." Nicole voiced.

Denizen 1998 and Catfish shared a glance. "I'll take it one way or another." Catfish declared.

"Uh, can I change my name? like if i agree to be Futafied?" Denizen asked.

"You can change your name regardless." Nicole answered.

"Okay uh put me down for something non-sexual." Denizen said and Nicole obligingly added an image of denizen next to an image of a needle

Shadow shook his head. "I want my living situation sorted out first."

Nicole turned her gaze to Sonic. "uhm i dunno like i have no clue what to do right now." Sonic said the reality of the situation finally sinking in. “Can I go for a run? And like clear my head?”

"If you'd like i can arrange for our Sonic to speak with you." Nicole offered. "it might help you sort out your feelings."

"yeah that sounds like a plan lets start with that."

The sleek blue white and red sports car skidded to a stop just in front of Sonic with expert precision. "uhm..." he started as he noted the blue furred green eyed hedgehog sitting in the drivers seat wearing a red leotard and very little else.

"Hop in you and i have a lot to talk about." The futa Sonic said patting the passenger seat. "Oh and for the duration of this trip I'll be Sonita and you will be blue boy."

"Why not sonic one and sonic two?" Blue Boy asked before hopping into the car and buckling up.

"how do you like the idea of being called sonic 2?" Sonita replied as he hit the gas.

"not at all." Blue Boy said with a grimace

"That's why. So Nicole tells me you are feeling guilty about possibly destroying your reality." Sonita said as they flew down the road with what felt like reckless speed to Blue Boy. "that's one of those problems you can't outrun."

Blue Boy frowned and watched the buildings zip by. "should you be going this fast in the city?"

"oooh classic deflection! Not gonna work on me because i have a special license. Now lets talk about how you fucked up and what's gonna happen next."

Blue Boy sighed. "shoulda guessed that wouldn't work on another me... Fine. i'm only telling you all this cause I've got nobody else who will listen." Blue boy declared before spilling the incident from accidentally uncovering the paradox prism to its intentional but well meaning destruction and finding himself drifting through the shatter spaces and eventually the universe he was in now. "right up until i got here i thought i could put it all back together. that i could just fix things."

Sonita had listened quietly the whole time. "Yeah your not the first sonic to think like that." Blue boy turned to the futa doppelganger confusion written on his face. "So here's a reveal for you this is like the tenth or so time we have had a universe collapse into and merge with ours."

"Ten?!?" Blue Boy asked gobsmacked.

"Give or take three we can't be fully sure about a few." Sonita replied casually as they drifted out of town. "Nicole's favorite metaphor for universal merging is bubbles but i think music offers a better metaphor."

"huh?"

"try to keep up with me." Sonita said with a grin. "Imagine our universes as the same song played by two different bands. they don't play it quite the same like ones pop an the other is metal. the people who live in each universe are the notes and march of history is the rhythms they create." Sonita stepped on the gas as they approached a natural ramp. "what happened in your case is that the band split up mid performance each of the players playing the song their own way."

Blue Boy whooped as the wind streamed over his face as the pair hurtled over a small gorge. "that would sound terrible if they only have some of the notes and they aren't even playing to the same tune it would just be..."

"Discordant. which is why your universe dissolved you and your shatter space pals are the left over notes that joined into our song. like adding a new instrument. " Sonita said as they zipped around the crumbling walls of some building or another.

"alright... but-" Blue boy started to go over how it was still his fault only to be interrupted.

"see the way this works is that your friends are going to be added to the history of our world, somebody rewriting the song to account for new instruments. i can't say what that looks like because i normally don't notice this stuff. it's practitioners of magic or people with weird time space stuff that notice things are different. like the one example i can think of is my family getting retconned."

"that sounds pretty bad." Blue Boy said with a frown.

"it's more messy than anything." Sonita replied throwing the car into a tight curve around a battlement. "See at some point two universes became one and so did the Sonics from those universes. Except in one universe Sonic was an only child raised by his uncle, and in the other he was part of a set of triplets with his mother hiding him with his paternal uncle. and then you mix in another universe where Sonic's parents are alive just turned into robots and you almost get how weird my family is."

"i'm not getting the connection."

"So i have a bio-mom, a birth mom, two siblings, a dad who may or may not have been turned into a robot, an uncle and an adoptive mom." Sonita said as the car roared up an incline into a loop.

"wha??"

"my bio mom is queen Aleena she had some health issues and so she used a surrogate. Bernadette the hedgehog is said surrogate. she gave birth to me Sonia and Manic though they only expected one kid. My dad disappeared fighting Robotnik early on and if he survived it's because he was turned into a Robian but there's been no sign of him. For a while i lived with my Uncle Chuck safely hidden away until i could reunite with my mom and siblings and save the world according to a prophecy (which didn't even come true) until Chuck got snatched up. After that a kind owl lady found me wandering the woods fed me and took me to Knothole where i became a hero. as far as i am aware that's just three of the times that history got jumbled up."

"okay so what does that mean for me? are you and i just going to like merge into one?" Blue Boy asked.

"there's only one Sonic the hedgehog in this world but that doesn't mean that you'll just disappear. I think it's like... you and i are pretty different. not just life experience but I'm a totally different gender and sexuality. I think what's going to happen is that when history gets to the retcon you'll become someone else, that or i will." Sonita said as she brought the car to a stop.

"huh do you think if i become a futa my chances are better or worse?" Blue boy asked.

"I dunno I'm mostly guessing at how this works. i get this sorta feeling when something has been added to my life but its not always certain." Sonita shrugged "and sometimes when another reality meshes with ours its just there from that point on. there's a whole bunch of human cities that just showed up one day, Blaze is from another dimension until it got melted into ours. I'm fairly sure that one moon is newer than the others." Sonita said pointing into the sky where a slightly pink celestial body hovered. "so maybe tomorrow you'll wake up as me and the whole splintered universe thing will have been a nightmare you had. maybe tomorrow you'll wake up and you and i will be siblings. maybe tomorrow you'll wake up as you. only one way to find out."

"just gotta press on no matter what that may mean." Blue Boy paused. "what about the others?"

"you can bet they are sticking around. they are all pretty different. I think the pirates might end up shuffled into the past though." Sonita said as he leaned the chair back and watched the sky deepen to indigo as the sun set.

Blue Boy followed his Futa double's lead. "Alright so, if i stick around... what should i do?"

"personal recommendation? absolutely get somebody to turn you into a Futa, and i mean have sex with a futa. it's been a blast." Sonita placed her hand on her stomach. "including my little speed bump here."

Blue boy did a double take upon realizing the other hedgehog was in fact pregnant. "who is the father?"

"Dunno i got kinda wild with it, could be Shadow could be silver, might even be Amy, Blaze or Sally." Sonita told him with a smile. "maybe we'll get to find out together." Blue boy smiled at the thought.

Rusty Rose glanced about, rather than seeing her local dimensional equivalent like planned she had been diverted.

"Here we are." the metallic blue hedgehog said arriving before her in a flash. "welcome to my humble home for wayward robots." declared the being she assumed to be Synth Sonic given their visual similarities to the blue hedgehog that she had met only days earlier.

"I am a cyborg." Rusty corrected as she stepped off the transport.

"well no one is perfect. I'm Synth, Synth Sonic if you must. You would be Rusty Rose, correct?" the Auto-automaton replied with a slight bow of the head

"Affirmative. Inform me of the reason for my unelected visit." replied not returning the gesture.

Synth rolled his eyes as he stood up. "You are hosting an illegal power supply we intend to remove it."

Rusty glared "Power supply. You mean birdy?" she said opening her chest to reveal the distressed flicky residing within.

before Rusty could blink Synth had crossed the distance to her and plucked the bird chamber and all from her body.

"Yes, very much so." Synth said as he handed the bird off to a flying robot that looked like a wasp, which promptly zipped away.

"I need that to continue living..." Rusty commented as her systems began to blare warnings about her interrupted power supply and imminent shutdown.

"And we will fix that... right now." Synth disappearing for a moment mid sentence only to reappear holding a metallic sphere and a hexagonal rod that glowed golden. "I'm quite curious how the great upgrade will apply itself to a cyborg." the former robot declared excitedly as he pushed the rod into a slot in the sphere before inserting both into Rusty's chest cavity.

Rusty felt a rush of relief as power returned to her and her various alarms shut off only to realize what had just been done to her as the chromatic tendrils of nanites engulfed her chest and spread across her body. she was blinded deafened and stripped of the power to scream or even move. Rusty was not fully aware of what was going on her internal sensors blinked out as her internal systems fired off warnings that vanished from her mind as fast they appeared. perhaps it was only her imagination but she would swear what was happening was her entire body was dissolving leaving only a metallic pink blob on the ground. then she could feel her fingers again resting on the metal platform she had stepped out onto her palms and elbows flat on cold metal. her bare feet against cold steel had her flexing her legs tight against herself. her tail and rump formed her back flat on the ground as if she had just laid down. Sound returned to her world and Rusty opened her eyes blinking in the spot light she found herself laying in. she sucked in the first breath she had needed to take in a long time as she felt the weight on her chest. looking down she wasn't the least bit surprised to find that she now sported the plus size breasts of just about everyone she had encountered in this universe, looking past them she was equally unsurprised to find that her groin now sported a cock and a good size pair of balls. what was slightly shocking was her fur it was a metallic pink vaguely the term rose gold came to her mind. then she noticed her nipples and the head of her cock were yellow with a slight metallic sheen, brushing her masculine genitals aside she saw that the inner lips of her restored pussy were likewise yellow.

"Remarkable..." Synth said admiring her as she lay on the platform examining herself. "it seems the futa virus is more thorough than I ever imagined."

"In what way?" Rusty asked curious about what he had seen that she hadn't.

"the nanite broke down the mechanical parts of your body as expected but when they touched your few organic components they were converted into tissue. Your organic body rebuilt itself from the great upgrade. there do seem to be some lingering signs of your conversion to the machine but they are mostly cosmetic. Your eyelids, lips, and reproductive organs all feature a noticeable metal quality alongside your fur your skin tone is also notably darker than Amy Rose's." Synth dipped away for only a moment returning with a trifold mirror.

Rusty found it hard to believe she hadn't noticed the change in skin tone first her original and cyborg forms had skin readily described as peach or even white her skin now was decidedly brown like maple syrup and had a similar glossy tone to it. "well at least i should be distinct in a crowd."

"can't say the same despite my best efforts."

"pardon?"

"sorry forgot you are new around here, there's like a dozen Metal Sonic's and while none of us look exactly the same we sure do all look like Sonic." Synth lamented as he blurred around her taking her measurements.

"How many attempts did it take to get it right?" she asked recalling Chaos Sonic, and the apparent ease with which he had been beating Sonic down.

"Hooo... lets see... we start with the original Auto-automaton Pseudo-Sonic, who mostly just looked like Sonic. No super speed not even really good at fooling his friends because he didn't act like the real deal. Silver Sonic is next, too big, too clumsy but fast and deadly. Mecha Sonic was next faster, nimbler, better armed, couldn't keep up with Sonic's actions. Metal Sonic one point oh was next designed to think and fight like Sonic but with greater durability and speed. too much speed actually he crashed into a defensive grid and was scorched to the scrap heap. Silver Sonic Mark Two came after that used Mecha Sonic's body as a basis. captured and reprogrammed. Metal Sonic two point oh got a new power supply and that worked fine until said power supply was removed... resulting in him self destructing. Metal sonic three rolled out with a revised intelligence system used to control the Silver Sonic mark three units. I was Metal Sonic four point oh and i upgraded myself into Neo-Metal Sonic and then eventually became Synth Sonic and that's perfection. so nine or ten depending on how you think about it.

"hold on a second what happened to Metal Sonic 3?" Rusty asked.

Synth beckoned her closer looking about conspiratorially. "I don't know. I know he was built and that he was given certain modifications and that's it. all other files referring to mark three are deleted. not a single trace of them in the systems."

"has anything like that happened before?"

"E-123 Omega is mostly missing from the files in the same way which implies that mark 3 turned on Robotnik."

Rusty nodded digesting that and then looked down at the clothes she was wearing. "when did..."

"oh i popped those on you a second ago, some folks think that naked is the way to go but when you shine like we do you gotta cover up a bit." Synth said and then a grin crossed his features. "though if you'd like to take them off in private the two of us could have some fun?"

Rusty smiled back at Synth. "might as well this body could use some... calibrations."
