Summary
“Thanks for getting here so quick Shadow- To be honest, I wasn’t sure if you were going to come at all-"
“Rouge.”
“Right. Okay.” Rouge broke off for a moment, taking a breath before resuming. “So. The tapes we found are… not quite what we thought they were.”
"I thought we agreed to hand them over to GUN to take care of."
"I know, but... I got curious," Rouge admitted, and Shadow scoffed, unsurprised, though growing more tense when he noted the unease in his friend's expression, her posture.
He followed Rouge into their living room. Sat on top of their end table was the box Shadow recognised, spotting the tapes they had recovered in the Eggman base poking out through the opened slit.
“Okay.” Shadow said, voice his usual deadpan drawl as he returned his attention to the bat. “What was it that was so important you needed me here?”
“I’ll just show you.”Or
Shadow and Rouge find a box of tape recordings in an abandoned Eggman facility with one clue on it; a piece of tape labeled 'SONIC'. When they finally watch the tapes to figure out what's hiding on them, they realize Sonic has been hiding a lot from everyone, and they may have just signed up for more than they bargained for.

Summary
A prophecy warns of the consequences if Sonic and Shadow's love is not realized. In order for that to happen, their friends must make Shadow realize how much he truly trusts Sonic.
However, Sonic will do just about anything to keep his secret from coming out; even if it means sacrificing his love for Shadow. They must unravel his secret- as well as his deep, dark past.
With the help of a mysterious, powerful artifact, they might just be able to figure out what that secret is... and stop whatever is holding their love back, once and for all.
A Sonic AU where Sonic has a drastically different, and much more traumatic childhood- his personality having differences as a result, as well as many secrets to hide... but most of all, he is much more vulnerable to the manipulation of his arch-nemesis.

Summary
It is not a particularly hidden secret that Sonic detests anything to do with water.
His friends dragging him onto a getaway cruise? Not his first choice, but for them he’ll let it slide. All is seemingly well — until it very quickly isn’t. Curse his luck for being stranded at sea without the ability to swim.
Adrift in the great big blue, Sonic finds himself enraptured by something in the depths below. Or rather someone who’s more than meets the eye.

Sonic The Hedgehog: A Timeline Reborn by YellowDevil99
Fandoms: Sonic the Hedgehog - All Media Types
16 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
When Sonic causes the collapse of his own timeline, it rebirths into a new universe, one that at first may look the same, but turns out to be very different in many ways. People are different, events have changed, and perhaps second chances at love are possible for those who had never gotten a chance.
This new universe entirely rebuilds Sonic's backstory, and other characters stories, revolving around found family, sacrifices, crushes and fixing stories in the Sonic Game Universe to a accetable rate with a side salad of Sonadow.
The goal of this story is to build a Universe which does contain Sonic and Shadow getting together eventually, but not in the forced manner, but more in a way that would make sense and fit if things were to change. However, this is not the stories only focus.

Summary
————
Shadow looked around the cave in awe. I had my nest made of leaves and sticks and surrounding it was piles of deer bones and marrow. Shadow’s eyes then landed on the torn up duffle bag in the corner and he tried to escape my hold. So I growled at him to stay.
“GRRR-”
“GRRR!” Shadow growled.
I blinked at him in surprise and so he used the opportunity to escape and walked over towards the bag.

Summary
much like my ultrakill work of the same vein, this fic consists of every sonic the hedgehog related fanfiction i haven't finished at the time of posting this. they probably won't ever BE finished, unless something autistic happens to me, and in that case i will remove the chapter(s) that fic has in this work and post it fully on its own.
it's mostly sonadow, sorry. some movie, some games, some in-between. goes in order of fondness, with the best for last. WHO Cares about good first impressions! please understand, a lot of these are cliffhangers, unintentionally. sorry.
(a couple of these chapters have, within them, multiple chapters. i'll try to make it easy to read.)Series

Summary
Sonic has been captured by Eggman countless times. His cockiness is warranted even when he's severely concussed in an unknown location. I mean, he's made it out of worse before. At least, that's what he thought, right before he felt the water around him.
What is Sonic going to do when an unfortunate afternoon turns into 6 months of horror, and he realizes his memories have become scattered?or
The plot of sonic forces but I make it self-indulgent and add some heavy angst, concussion induced memory loss, and gay hedgehogs
