*The fire in the fireplace warms the house… so I break in through a window!* Merry Christmas Eve! My little milk furries! For this Christmas, I bring you a story, or rather, @TheGoldenKobold brings it to us. Although this isn't a Christmas-themed story, I hope you enjoy it. (Note: All characters are adults.) ----- “Dududu~ Duwa~ Dudadu~” Silver hummed to himself as he fixed his hair. The time-traveling hedgehog was very excited today, as he planned to visit Blaze the cat in his dimension today. Of course, to do that, he first had to travel to the past and ask his friends for a little help… and also borrow the bathroom after facing one of Eggman’s squid robots, but that’s another story. Silver smiled at himself in the mirror. “That’s Silver, handsome, handsome.” His confidence was so high that not even his Mega Man underoos seemed to affect him. *Knock Knock* “Silver! Are you almost there!?” Shadow asked urgently, doing the bathroom dance on the other side of the door. “You’ve been there forever!” “Just one more minute.” Silver said with a smile as he got dressed. Even his most impatient ‘friend’ respected his privacy. Not like a certain person in the future who didn't hesitate to enter the hedgehog's bathroom and take a picture of him in the middle of his confidence exercises, then post it online so everyone could laugh at his underwear. "I'm ready!" Silver opened the bathroom door and stepped out, wearing wrinkle-free blue pants, a white shirt, and a formal jacket with a pocket square. "The bathroom is all yours!" Shadow stormed into the bathroom, slamming the door behind him. Silver couldn't help but chuckle a little before heading downstairs. "So, how do I look? I don't want to look bad if I happen to run into Blaze's royal court." In the living room, Tails and Sonic were playing video games on the couch, the latter frantically mashing buttons on his controller. "Yeah! Awesome! Blaze's lucky! Nooo!" Tails was playing so casually against Sonic that him did turn to look at Silver. "You look good. I'm sure Blaze is just as excited about this date between you two." The white hedgehog blushed, shyly fidgeting with his fingers. “I-It’s not a date… unless she wants it to be.” Silver always felt butterflies in his stomach at the thought of him and Blaze becoming more than just good friends. “Well, I’d better not keep her waiting!” Silver picked up the red and white Chaos Emeralds from the living room table. “And a killing blow.” Tails finished off Sonic’s character, sending the blue hedgehog crashing to the floor. “Huh… shouldn’t you wait for Shadow to help you with the inter-universe travel? You know, he’s the best at using Chaos Control.” “One more game!” Sonic insisted, clearly unavailable to chaperone. “Nah, I’ve been training.” Silver said, not wanting to wait for the other hedgehog. Tails continued to pummel Sonic without looking at the screen. “Can you teleport now?” Silver is struck by the memory of his last teleportation training with Shadow. The white hedgehog wanted to take them both to the Thanksgiving bake fair. Using Chaos Control, Silver managed to get them there! … Though not all of his clothes. The next day, the newspapers featured several photos of Silver wearing Superman underoos and Shadow wearing Hello Kitty underoos. Silver's face was red with embarrassment at the memory, but he shook his head to banish it. “It's not the same! Besides, the Sun Emeralds help us find our way!” “That doesn't inspire much confidence...” The fox said, worried about his friend. “Deadly attack.” “Gaahhhh!!” Sonic jumped onto the couch. “Stop doing that!” The blue hedgehog lunged at the fox, and they began wrestling on the couch like little kids instead of heroes. “I can do it…” Silver clutched both emeralds and crossed his arms. “Chaos…” “EEEEK!!” Tails squealed, Sonic was pulling his Backyardigans underoos. “WEDGIEEE!” “... Control!” Chaos energy completely enveloped Silver and he disappeared in a flash. --- A flash of pure energy occurred and in its place appeared Silver the hedgehog. “... My clothes!” The hedgehog checked if he had kept all his clothes or the newspapers would have big sales tomorrow. Luckily for him, everything was there. “I did it! I really did it!” The hedgehog was so happy that he skipped forward, throwing his fists in the air in triumph. “Haha! I told Tails I could do it! And now, let’s go see Blaze at her… huh?” Silver looked around, confused by the unfamiliar surroundings. The Sol Dimension, at least Blaze’s home, was a rather tropical and warm place. So the hedgehog was quite confused to find himself in a city, especially given the peculiar decorations on some lampposts: ripped underwear. “How strange, I’m sure I didn’t use teleportation. And yet, there’s something strange but familiar about this place.” Silver’s curiosity led him to walk along the sidewalk, exploring a little more of this place that gave him a strange feeling. The first thing the interdimensional traveler noticed was the graffiti on the walls of some buildings, some of it crossed out and new graffiti painted next to it, as if gangs were waging a turf war. Then there were some traps that were easy to spot, like ropes that pulled someone up, buckets of water placed over some doors, and even a bill with a not-so-subtle fishhook attached. “It’s like spending the day babysitting Charmy…” Silver said. Even so, he decided to teach the little prankster a lesson. The hedgehog used his psychic powers to pull the money off the hook and then lured it to his hand. “Sorry~ But if it’s any use, I’ll use it to buy a cute girl an ice cream—what!?” Silver was shocked to see Tails’ face on the bill. *Click* A considerable amount of electricity was released from the bill, delivering a nasty shock to Silver. “BRRRZZZZZZZZ~!!” The white hedgehog gritted his teeth and started making strange poses as the electricity coursed through his body—an Egyptian pose, a T-pose, a ballet pose, and more—before collapsing to the ground. Silver's fur crackled with electricity, his eyes twitched uncontrollably, and his leg spasmed. "Wahahahaha!! Take that! Leafhead!" The prankster descended from the sky, spinning his tails like helicopter propellers to take flight. "You can't beat someone this smart!" Silver sat down on the sidewalk, his vision beginning to clear. "Wahhhh... Tails?" The hedgehog's eyes focused, noticing a two-tailed fox flying in front of him... only this one had reddish fur. "Tails!" Silver jumped to his feet. "Dyed your fur?!" "Tails? Dye my fur? Wow! The electric shock affected your brain... awesome!" The fox landed in front of Silver, ceasing to spin its tails... all three of them. "Gah!! What happened?!" Silver pointed at the fox's tails. "When did that third tail grow?!" The red fox gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing. “You want to make fun of me?! Are you just like those idiots who called me a freak and stripped me naked in front of everyone to laugh at me?!” The fox pulled out a pair of stink grenades. “That won’t happen again! Anyone who messes with the great Threils will have their dignity shattered!” “Thre…ils?” Silver was confused. “…Oh! Wait! It’s Three and Tails together!” “Clever boy.” A mysterious voice said. “Here’s your prize!” A blue blur shot out from one of the alleys, swirling around the white hedgehog and the fox like a tornado for a few seconds before the culprit stopped, revealing himself to be a dark blue hedgehog with green streaks. “And Zonico gets the two-for-one deal and takes it all!” “EEK!” “WEDGIEEE!” Silver stumbles, his Mega Man Underoos stretched out to the sides and caught on his shoulders, his arms even tucked through the holes. “ZONICO!!” Threils yells, his underwear stretched above his head. The fact that he was wearing pink briefs with hearts certainly didn’t help. “Why do you always get in my way?! This smart-suited nerd is my prey!” Zonico leans forward with a grin. “Aren’t you forgetting something?” He points upward. Silver and Threils looked up despite their wedgies, noticing the plague grenades the fox had been holding earlier. “Nooo!” The fox and hedgehog’s pupils narrowed, and they tried to run, but ended up colliding with each other. The grenades fell, releasing a thick, foul-smelling cloud that completely enveloped them! “PUAAAAJ!!” Silver and Threils crawled out of the cloud, their eyes watering and their faces green from the intense stench, which now permeated them and their clothes. “It’s worse than a basket of Zonico and Shade’s dirty socks after a whole day of racing!” Threils yelled, waving his tails in an attempt to dispel the smell, to no avail. “It smells worse than the time Geoffrey ate six tacos with extra hot sauce!” Silver cried, tears streaming down his cheeks. “I think that’s stuck in my nose!” Zonico stood apart, fanning himself with his hand. “Ugh! Dude, you guys really suck!” “The moment I lay a hand on you, you’re dead!” The fox spins its three tails, flying without fixing its underwear to chase the hedgehog seeking revenge. Silver stood up, rubbing his eyes, and pulled his underoos off his shoulders, tucking it back into his pants. “What… what’s going on? Were those really my friends?” The hedgehog used his telekinetic powers to lift himself above the buildings to see where he was. Silver recognized the place as New Mobotropolis, though with slight changes to the buildings. “Ugh, I think I’m in the wrong universe.” The hedgehog reasoned. That explained why there were versions of his friends who looked and acted differently. Silver landed on a rooftop, forced to admit he’d made a mistake. He could already imagine Tails saying something like, “I told you so. Why didn’t you listen?” “He’ll definitely yell at me like that if he finds out this happened. I’d better get out of here as soon as possible.” Silver pulls out the Chaos Emeralds… the foul odor on his clothes hits his nose. “Ugh! I need a shower, clean clothes, and a bottle of cologne.” “Let me help you undress~!” A maniacal voice said. “Ahh!?” Silver turns around, staring at the empty rooftop. “Huh? Did I imagine it?” *Slash!* A wide tear appeared in Silver’s pants and shirt. The hedgehog watches in astonishment as buttons fly past his face, and then a red chameleon appears before him. “Nice landing~!” The chameleon kicks Silver in the stomach, knocking him off the building and grabbing both Chaos Emeralds in the process. “Gyaaaaahhhhh!!” The shock and fear made the hedgehog forget he could float. But luckily, there was an open trash can to break his fall. Silver crashed into the garbage and after a few seconds, he popped his head out, a banana peel stuck in his hair. “Gahh! Who the heck are you?!” The day was going from bad to worse. The red chameleon stood on the edge of the terrace, a maniacal grin on his face and his long tongue flicking in the air. “You can call me Spyke, stranger.” Spyke played with the emeralds in one hand while twirling a kunai in the other. “I was planning on putting a string down your pants and kicking your ass off the edge of the building. But when I saw these beauties, I couldn’t resist. I just had to steal them for the Chaos Gang.” “You must be the Espio of this universe.” Silver muttered as he peeled the banana peel off his head. “You’re going to give me back the Chaos Emeralds right now!” Silver started floating out of the trash can, wanting to intimidate Spyke. “Do it now, and I won’t have to use my powers to take what’s mine by force.” “Nice lights~” The chameleon didn’t seem intimidated. “Though not as much as those underoos~” Silver looked down, noticing his pants were bunched up around his knees. “YEEEK!” Silver tried to cover himself. Losing his focus, he fell again. “Hahahaha! That was fun! But I have to go show off these treasures to my crew!” Spyke said with a grin and vanished, running away… taking both emeralds with him. Silver shoved a trash bag and made his way out of the bin, falling onto the sidewalk. “Ouch! Get back here!” The hedgehog got to his feet. “I need to get those emeralds back, or I’ll be stuck in this weird universe forever.” Someone across the street whistled, eyeing the hedgehog’s cute little bottom in his underwear. Silver blushed and held his pants up. “I think my wardrobe needs some adjustments before I start the search.” He hurried off to hide in an alley. --- Silver flew above the city. The hedgehog used his ruined shirt to improvise a belt to keep his pants up. The jacket had a tear but still held in place. “If I want to find Spyke, I have to find the Chaotix, and the best way to find them is usually by talking to Vanilla.” Vanilla, kind woman, loving mother, reliable baker, and delicious pastries; definitely a good choice to ask for help. Surely her kindness reaches other universes. Silver didn't take long to find the rabbit woman's home. "Great! Everything looks exactly the same!" The hedgehog felt relieved. "I'm sure Vanilla hasn't changed much." The hedgehog approached the front door and rang the doorbell. A panel opened, and a cream pie was launched toward Silver! The hedgehog stumbled, his face covered in cream. A voice came from the other side of the door. "Oh, dear, I'm so sorry, that shouldn't have happened." She didn't sound remorseful at all. "Tell me, what's your favorite pie?" Silver finished wiping his face. "Huh... pumpkin?" At least he really liked the pumpkin pie Vanilla shared on Thanksgiving. "But I n-!!" A pumpkin pie was launched with twice the force, hitting the hedgehog in the face and sending him sprawling backward. Silver was on the ground, covered in orange, with winged pumpkins spinning around his head, even though it wasn't Halloween. The front door opened, a pair of eyes flashed, and then the adult rabbit stepped out. Her fur was mostly pale yellow with green markings, and she wore enormous glasses that completely obscured her eyes. “Nye! Nye! Nye!” She giggled nastily as she adjusted her glasses. “What did you think of my surprise foot? The surprise is that it smashes right into your silly face! Nye! Nye! Nye!” She giggled again. Silver sat down in the grass, bits of pumpkin pie stuck in his hair. “Vanilla?” “Vanilla? You're thinking of cooking something with that?” The rabbit looked disgusted. “I'm Almond the rabbit! Remember that if you don't want a pie in your pants!” “Ugh… Anyway, I still need help.” Silver uses his powers to brush the foot remnants away from his hair. “Do you know where I can find the Chaos Gang?” “Hmph! That quintet of idiots? Of course I know about them, Winter owes me months of cake!” Almond sounds annoyed. “Not to mention that perverted bumblebee who’s always trying to get close to my daughter, no matter how many hot pies I throw at his enormous behind.” “Quintet? Aren’t there only three of them?” Silver scratches the back of his neck, quite confused. “I guess the bumblebee is this dimension’s Charmy. But who’s Winter?” “Hey! Hoary hedgehog!” A voice shouted. “I am not hoary! It’s natural white!” Silver exclaimed, annoyed, and looked for the source of the voice. The hedgehog noticed a younger rabbit, dressed in punk style, peering out of a window. Next to her was a dark Chao with a grin full of sharp teeth. “CREAM!?” Silver could never have imagined the cute little bunny like this. “It’s crème brûlée! A load of dandruff!” The bunny yelled. “And get out of here!” She stepped aside, revealing a giant slingshot poised to fire out the window. “Camembert!” The black Chao was already cocking the slingshot loaded with a bowling ball. “Chao! Chao!” The Chao fires, sending the heavy, hard ball flying through the window toward Silver! “GAHHH!” Silver yelled, his hands glowing just like the bowling ball. He couldn't stop it, but he deflected it upwards. “What the heck is wrong with you guys?!” “How dare you! My daughter was just playing and you lose the ball!” Almond pulled out two banana pie and threw them at Silver. “You'll pay for that and the pies!” The hedgehog used his powers to knock one of the tarts to the ground and picked up the other. “We're not in a food fight, you can't do anything to me with thi—” *BOOOOM!!* The banana pie Silver was holding exploded in his face! “Nye! Nye! That exploding pie is very special! Can you taste the gunpowder?” She sneered. Silver's face was covered in soot and his jacket had turned to ash, revealing his bare chest. He was still in a daze after that explosion in his face. The adult rabbit brings out more tarts and cakes. “It’s time for Almond’s special buffet!” She runs toward the hedgehog. But in her haste, she tripped over the ruined banana cake on the floor, slipping. “Ouch!” She slid a little, ended up falling to the ground, and her glasses fell off, revealing a beautiful face. “Ow, that hurt…” Almond groans as she gets up, then wrinkles her face a lot, looking like an old lady who ate a whole lemon. “My glasses! Where are my glasses!” She starts feeling around. Silver recovers from the shock, noticing that the rabbit can’t see anything without her glasses. So he takes them. “Listen, I’m not friends with the Chaotic Gang, not by a long shot. I need to get something back that one of them stole from me.” Silver crosses his arms. “So tell me where I can find them to give you back your glasses, and I’ll leave you alone.” “Evil man, taking advantage of a poor, defenseless lady like me.” The woman who attacked at the beginning and used exploding pies said. “Oppressor! Villain! Shameless!” “Could you stop playing the victim? I have an date to keep.” the hedgehog said impatiently. “Poor unfortunate soul, having to run into a stinky hedgehog.” The rabbit said, relaxing her face, which regained its beautiful, calm expression. “Fine, whatever. I don’t mind if those guys get their asses kicked, or if they beat you up. What you need to do is head west. You’ll see a snowy area that’s hard to miss; their base is there.” “Snow?” The hedgehog was skeptical, since it was warm in this city. “Do I look like a fool to you?” By sheer chance, the bowling ball that had flown into the air earlier landed right on Silver’s head! **POW!** Silver’s eyes rolled in their sockets, and his tongue lolled out of the side of his mouth. The impact was so strong that it traveled through his entire body, causing his pants to fall down, leaving Silver in only his Mega Man underoos. “I think it’s snowing~! I should warn the elves~!” Silver collapsed backward, a bump growing on his head. Crème Brûlée and Camembert cautiously left the house. The punk bunny picked up the glasses from the hand of the half-naked hedgehog who was drooling in her garden. “Here you go, Mom.” “Thanks, honey.” The adult rabbit put on and adjusted her glasses. “Much better, I can’t see anything without my len-gahh!!” Almond screamed when she saw Silver. “Pervert! This perverted hedgehog got naked in my backyard!” That was their fault, but Almond would never admit it. “Camembert! Get that perverted hedgehog away from my daughter! I never want to see him again!” The dark Chao rolled his eyes. “Chao, Chao.” It seemed to complain about the rabbit, but it still grabbed Silver’s underwear and took flight, carrying the hedgehog on a flying wedgie while continuing to drool aimlessly. “Chao chao chao!” The dark Chao complained about the hedgehog’s bad smell, so it hurried off to find a place to put it. --- “I can’t believe it, the bullying of this universe has corrupted even the kindest people I know.” Silver said, reflecting as he hung from a traffic light by his underwear. Cars honked as they passed. “I can’t trust anyone. And I need to get home before I run into someone worse. I don’t even want to imagine the kind of things Shadow or Omega would do to me.” There was a faint rip, and Silver jerked. “Huh?” The hedgehog looked up, his Mega Man underoos starting to tear. “…Why do these things always happen to me?” **RIP!** Silver’s underwear ripped, becoming a decoration on the traffic light as the now-naked hedgehog began to fall! The fall didn’t last long, though, as a bus was passing by and Silver was smashed through the windshield! An alternate version of Barry was driving the bus, and he didn’t look impressed by the naked white hedgehog… or by what he had to show. Barry simply activated the windshield wipers to remove the hedgehog from the windshield and toss it aside. Silver landed face-first on the sidewalk, his butt twitching in the air. A group of boys Scouts was passing by, each of them giving the hedgehog a playful slap on the behind as they walked by. Silver slowly got up, rubbing his ass with one hand and covering his "wee wee" with the other. "Maybe I should have gotten out of there when I woke up..." The hedgehog watched as his underwear became just another decoration in the city. "I need to get some clothes." "Nice butt! Does it already have an owner?" A woman called from a window. Silver blushed intensely and picked up a plastic bag that was flying in the wind. "Yes! It does!" The hedgehog jumped, forcing one foot at a time to improvise disposable underwear... although the translucent plastic didn't really hide his nakedness. "Even if she doesn't know!" The hedgehog used whatever was around to try and hide: trash cans, telephone poles, mailboxes, and store signs—anything to avoid being seen. Although people just saw a naked hedgehog acting like a fool. The good thing was that this was pretty normal, so at least Silver wouldn't have to deal with the police. The real problem was clothes. Silver could see shop windows with ridiculous outfits on offer, and the few decent clothes available were quite expensive… oh, wait, he didn't have any money. “What should I do? I can't go on like this, but I can't just rob a store.” The hedgehog hid behind a coffee shop sign. “Maybe I can grab something from a clothesline and try to return it later, before I leave.” “Waaaahhhhhh!!” Suddenly, a blue deer boy came flying in, crashing into a coffee shop table and spilling the remains of a coffee all over his head. The deer had the disposable cup dangling from one of its antlers, and its pants were hanging off one ankle. Silver watched the deer, unable to resist glancing at his butt covered by MLP underoos. The pink color and the ponies were adorable. But it was still a peculiar scene. “Get back here! Valio!” A green gecko in orange clothes came running up. A black-feathered cockatoo in tight athletic wear followed. “We’re not done settling scores yet!” Valio stood up, wobbly and seeing stars. “Londress, I can explain. I thought it would be a fun surprise to come home for a few days.” The gecko grabbed the deer by the front of its underwear and gave it a mighty Melvin! “EEEK~!” Valio squealed, his eyes crossing, a ridiculous grin twitching across his face. “WEDGIEEE!!” “Londress, you know he likes being bullied.” The cockatoo says as him opens a water bottle, pouring a small amount over hisbody, wetting its tight clothing. “Quiet! Propep!” Londress shakes the deer. “You know we were making plans to go south! Why did you make the reservations without telling us? Even if it was a great idea! You should have talked to us first!” He bounces the deer on the wedgie. “I-it was a surprise~!” Valio said with a smile, shaking his legs and completely losing his pants. “I-It wouldn’t be a su-surprise if I t-told you!” Propep was stretching behind his friends. He noticed the naked hedgehog spying on them, him winked with a smile, and continued stretching. “This is fun and all, but can we move? It’s not good to let the muscles get cold.” “Want to exercise? Take!” The gecko placed the deer in front of the cockatoo. “Use this fool as a dumbbell or something! And you can kick his butt to work your legs.” “A-All that for a surprise!?” Valio squeaked, flailing his limbs in the air. Though his wobbly grin might have made some wonder if he was trying to break free or just enjoying deepening the wedgie. “And my pants!?” “Forget them, let the world see your bubble butt.” Propep said as he took off his top, revealing a chest toned from training. “I’ll do the same.” “You’re always trying to get undressed for no reason, why do you even bother getting dressed?!” Londress yelled. The cockatoo grabbed the deer by the wedgie. “If it bothers you so much, come and take my clothes off yourself.” He winked. “But then I’ll have to do the same to you~” The gecko’s face turned red, whether from embarrassment or anger. “Stop acting like that with me!” The peculiar trio of boys left, the deer’s adorable squeaks attracting attention and his bottom stealing glances. Silver watched them until they were out of sight, then looked at the discarded clothes the cockatoo had intentionally left behind. “Thanks, I guess?” The hedgehog was still confused by the scene, but he didn’t miss the opportunity and picked up the pants and top. “See you in my universe, I hope I can return the favor.” Silver promised himself. Although he couldn't shake the feeling of having seen a deer, a cockatoo, and a gecko that looked very much like them. Silver just needed one more thing to get dressed: underwear. Hey, don't judge him; it's not the hedgehog's fault his butt and wee wee are sensitive. With no other options, Silver used his telekinesis to grab some black underoos, socks, and slippers that were drying on someone's balcony. Hopefully, they wouldn't be the only pair that person had. "Huh…" Silver's cheeks turned red when he saw they were small Care Bear underoos. "Well, at least they're clean." Silver put on the underoos, trying to ignore how tight they were, and finished getting dressed. Although his underwear kept digging into his buttocks. At least now he looked like a decent person. "Now, the fake Vanilla said I should go to the West Zone and find snow… It's ridiculous, but it's the only clue I have." Silver began to levitate using his powers and started flying through the sky, preferring to avoid any other scoundrels who might pose a risk to his new clothes. To the hedgehog's surprise, there was a white area! There was actually snow! It covered an entire city block, and the snow was being generated by machines on the rooftops. "I like Christmas as much as anyone, but this seems excessive." Silver said, watching people doing bad things with the snow. The snow piled up on the rooftops was being thrown at unsuspecting people. Nerds and any other unfortunate souls would find their pants filled with snow. There were even boys in their underwear, tied up and used to make snowmen! Silver landed, listening to the snow crunch under his stolen sneakers. "Well, at least it's not hard to find the Chaos Gang." The hedgehog said, noticing a large neon sign with a crocodile flipping a coin that read: "Chaos Gang House Club!" The hedgehog walks toward the entrance. “They’re not very subtle, but that’s better for me.” Before Silver could reach the door, a splat sound came from a nearby window. The hedgehog turned his head and noticed a yellow armadillo wearing Hello Kitty underoos squashed against the glass, its eyes spinning wildly before it fell to the ground. “Mighty!?” Silver was startled to see the armadillo. He rushed inside. A red-furred flying squirrel, wearing black pants and a green winter hoodie along with goggles, was giving the armadillo wedgies. “I told you I wanted my hot chocolate with three marshmallows! And I only had two! Want a round of spanking!?” “Ray?” The hedgehog was surprised to see that he was there too. Silver knew that Mighty and Ray had been original members of the Chaotix, but they had both left the group. Did they really stick together when they were bullies? “Ray! Leave Mighty alone! He’s your best friend!” Silver uses his telekinesis to separate the flying squirrel and the armadillo. “Hey! What the heck is this?! And who are you calling Ray?!” The flying squirrel thrashes about as much as it can. “When my feet touch the ground again, I’ll introduce you to ‘Pain’ and ‘Hospital’ so they can spell my name for you!” The flying squirrel shakes its fists. “My name is Sky!” “E-Excuse me, sir, could you let go of Sky?” the armadillo says timidly, still with the wedgie stuck between his buttocks. “It was my fault, totally my fault. I deserved proper punishment.” The armadillo says, with a slight sway of its hips. “By the way, my name isn’t Mighty, it’s Weakty, though my friends just call me Weak.” “Ahhhh…” Silver is confused by the personality swap. “So Ray’s a brutish boy who uses his fists and Mighty’s a submissive boy?” “If you’re referring to my men…” A white tail twitches. “…I suppose you can describe them that way.” A white crocodile in a smart suit appears, wearing rings on every finger, even his tie adorned with a jeweled brooch. “Allow me to introduce myself.” The white crocodile makes a courteous gesture with his top hat. “Winter the Crocodile at your service, for the right price.” Winter’s gaze turned sharp. “Now, I’ll ask that you release my men before things get… sticky.” Silver takes a step back. Vector can be intimidating when he wants to be, in any universe. “I’m not looking for trouble.” The hedgehog deactivates his powers, letting the flying squirrel go. “I’m here to reclaim what’s mine! One of your men m—” “GYAHHH!!” A generous amount of honey is launched at the white hedgehog from above. “Gah!” The sweet, sticky substance clings to Silver’s fur. “A trap!?” Looking up, the hedgehog noticed a bee with a large ass hovering above him. “Charmy!” The bee was wearing orange winter clothes, and instead of his helmet, he was wearing a wool hat. “Loky!” the bee said with a wide grin, pulling out a pillow and a knife. “The prankmaster himself!” Loky stabbed the pillow, causing a shower of feathers to fall on Silver. The feathers stuck together with honey, making him look like a chicken. “Argh! I just got these clothes!” Silver couldn't decide what was more uncomfortable: having the feathers stuck to him or the honey getting in his pants. “Hehehehe! What's wrong? Too scared? Chicken!” The bee writhed in the air, laughing maniacally. Loky flew up to Winter. “Aniki! Did you see that? I surprised him with the honey! And I h-eep!” The crocodile grabbed him by the head. “Excuse us for a moment.” Winter said with a friendly smile. Then he pulled down Loky's pants, exposing his large bottom covered by Barbie underoos. "What are you doing breaking our things?!" The white crocodile began to deliver powerful spanks to the bee. "Do you have any idea how much a feather pillow costs? And the pillowcase!!" "GYAH! EEK!! OWW! GEAK!!" Loky started to cry as his bottom shook violently with each lash. "BUT YOU SAID STICKY!" Loky tried to run away, but the elegant crocodile had a strong grip, as well as a strong hand. "GEEEK! MY BOTTOM!!" Silver puts his hands to his own backside despite the honey and feathers. After a good spanking, Winter placed Loky in the corner of the room. “Ten minutes! No rubbing and forehead against the wall!” he ordered. *Sniff sniff* The bee sniffed and did as he was told, bending slightly, which gave a better view of his large butty covered in Barbie underoos, the red color peeking out from the holes. “...you said sticky…” he muttered. Sky was on the couch, laughing at the sight of his punished companion, and Weakty went to find some clothes so he could continue serving drinks to his companions. The white crocodile adjusted his elegant suit. “Sorry I’m late. Where were we?” Silver reacted, taking his hands away from his butt, now covered in honey and feathers. He tried to look serious despite his appearance. “I came here to get back what you stole from me! The chameleon named Spyke stole some gems from me a few hours ago!” Winter sat down on the couch, looking mostly expressionless. "...Impossible." "If you want to fight for them, then I..." Silver's hands began to glow, and the furniture in the room started to float, except for the couch. "Now that it's not happening to me, that trick would be great for pretending there are ghosts somewhere." Sky said and jumped onto a floating chair. "I bet a pervert would love to have this power to lift girls' skirts and pull down their pants." "Relax, my feathered friend." Winter calmly raised his hand. "It's not that I don't want to give you back the things my partner stole from you." He probably didn't intend to either. "It's just that we no longer have those beautiful gems that were taken from you." "...What?" The hedgehog's hands fell, as did the furniture in the room, making the floor tremble slightly. "What do you mean you no longer have the Chaos Emeralds?!" “Emeralds? But none of them were green.” Winter pointed out, confused. Weakty, startled, peeked out of the kitchen door. “What was that shaking?!” “You get the hot chocolate!” Sky threw a mug, hitting the armadillo in the face. “Remember! I want three marshmallows in mine! Or you’ll be shoving snow in your underwear!” Winter snorted, ignoring his boys’ antics. “We had a few debts, so we used those ‘emeralds,’ as you call them, to pay them off.” “No matter the universe, Vector is terrible at managing his finances!” Silver slapped a hand to his forehead, then a sticky line of honey connected them. The crocodile grinned maliciously. “Perhaps we could work something out. We can give you information and maybe even lend you our shower, for a price.” Silver crossed his arms, not trusting the people who had robbed him, thrown honey at him, and covered him in feathers. “And why couldn’t I kick everyone’s ass until I got that information for free?” Normally, Silver would avoid violence. But this universe has been testing his patience and goodwill considerably. “Oh oh!” Sky scrambled to hide behind a chair. The white crocodile stood up and exhaled a freezing breath! More than half the room was covered in a layer of ice, including the people on that side! “Ghh…” Silver was trapped in the ice, unable to move. “I should have known this guy was capable of something like this… the name Winter was a clue…” Sky was frozen, holding the chair he had tried to shield himself with. “Why me?” Winter adjusted his shirt collar and sat down in the armchair as if nothing had happened. “So, we have a deal, or do you need a taste of my hands, just like Loky?” “This helped soothe the burning in my butt…” Loky muttered, frozen in the corner. “Fine… whatever…" Silver reluctantly agreed. "But I also need some new clothes.” Weakty entered the room, wearing a white and pink maid outfit despite the cold. But more importantly, he carried a tray with several mugs of hot chocolate and a bag of marshmallows. “I brought the marshmallows since I wasn’t sure if our gueeeee!!” The armadillo was surprised to see all the ice. “Aww! We’ll have to dry the furniture again!” “That doesn’t matter.” Winter picks up one of the mugs of hot chocolate and pours it over Silver. The ice cracks and then crumbles into pieces… along with Silver’s clothes. The embarrassed hedgehog tries to cover his little Care Bear underoos. “Let me guess, you didn’t just steal clothes, you stole underwear.” Winter sneers. “Your chameleon friend is who ruined my clothes!” Silver exclaims, shivering from the cold. “Yeah, yeah…” The crocodile uses the hot chocolate on the flying squirrel to free him. “Gyah!” Sky yells as the ice and his clothes shatter to pieces on the floor. “Why me too!?” Sky screams, covering his green underoos of Winnie the Pooh and Friends. “Stop whining and go get a hot bath while Weakty prepares the information so our friend can go and retrieve his gems.” Winter says, pointing down the hallway. “H-Hey… here…” Loky said, still frozen in the corner of the room. But Winter ignored him and sat down to drink hot chocolate with marshmallows. In a scene change, Silver was in a bathtub filled with hot water. A rubber ducky was floating around, and… Sky was beside him, still upset about what had happened. The hedgehog tried not to look at the naked flying squirrel. “Did you have to join me in the bath?” “Winter makes us bathe together; hot water costs money.” Sky said with his arms crossed. “Just stay on your side of the tub and don’t look at me, you perverted hedgehog!” “How am I the pervert here?!” Silver said angrily. “Your partner cut my clothes! Your boss destroyed my borrowed clothes! And Almond said Loky was a pervert!” “Almond?... Oh, right.” Sky placed his arms on the edge of the tub and rested his head there. “That idiot isn’t a pervert. Crème Brûlée always uses Loky as his plaything, from dressing him up like a little girl in panties to using him as a piñata.” Silver reflects on Cream and Charmy’s relationship. She doesn’t do it intentionally, but Charmy manages to get himself into situations like this. “I guess the Cream of this universe takes the initiative to humiliate this Charmy.” “Make way!!” Speaking of the devil. The bathroom door burst open, and Loky came running in, completely naked. “Cannonball!” The bee leaped into the tub. “Gahhh!!” Silver and Sky jumped up in the tub as they saw a huge butt and a tiny wee wee approaching them dangerously. “Loky! Idiot!” A huge amount of water splashed around the bathroom and overflowed from the tub. Loky poked his head out of the water, shaking himself like a dog to get his black hair out of his face. “Whoo-hoo! Splash 11 out of 10! I’m the king of dives anywhere!” Silver was floating face down, his butt sticking out of the water. Sky stood there, looking annoyed, with the rubber ducky covering his wee wee. “How dare you come into the bathroom like that?!” Sky lunged at Loky, starting to wrestle with him in the water. “Winter hasn’t grounded you enough! You’re going to have soap for lunch now!” Weakty peeked his head timidly around the door. “Excuse me… does anyone need help… you know, cleaning their back or something?” The response was a bottle of conditioner being thrown, hitting the armadillo on the forehead. Weakty’s eyes rolled back, his tongue lolled out of his mouth, and he tumbled out of the bathroom. --- After his eventful bath, Silver was ‘generously’ given new clothes. Black pants, a red t-shirt with a black diamond on the chest, socks, red sneakers, and— “Are you kidding me?!” The hedgehog said, holding up some MLP underoos, pink ones with the pony princesses all over them. “What bothers you? The pink or the ponies?” Loky said with a laugh. He wasn’t the best at talking, not with Dora the Explorer underoos. “Or maybe they’re too big for you?” Sky put on some pants before someone pointed out his Paw Patrol underoos. “Weakty’s clothes are the only ones that fit your body. Take them or travel with everything dangling.” “Yeah, I see his name here.” Silver said, his cheeks red, comically tugging at the underoos, the name embroidered at the waist. Although “Weakty” could be misinterpreted. With no other option, Silver dresses in the underoos, trying to convince himself that no one will see them anyway. Though even he doesn't believe that. Once fully dressed, the hedgehog and the others head down to Winter's office. The large white crocodile is already there, with a whiteboard displaying a map of the city with markings and photographs. "Hope you enjoyed your bath." "I've had better..." Silver pouts and takes a seat at the desk. "So, where do I need to go to retrieve the emeralds?" "Dude, those gems aren't even green... whatever." Winter slides a photograph onto the desk for Silver to pick up. "Your precious 'emeralds' are in the hands of the boss who rules this place with steel hooks and intimidation." He warns. "I think you meant: Steel Fist." Silver corrects. "No, I know exactly what I said and what I'm talking about." The crocodile affirms. Then Silver picked up the photograph from the desk and examined it. “This has to be a joke! You’re saying he… he rules this place?! How of all people could he do something like that?!” Silver exclaimed, holding up a photograph that showed… Big the cat. Big hasn’t changed much in this universe; the biggest differences were that this Big had a rooster-crest hairstyle and wore a black jacket with the sleeves torn off. He even still carried his fishing rod and belt. The photograph also showed this universe’s Froggy, who was pink with purple spots. “He prefers to be called ‘The Big’ when speaking directly to him.” Winter leaned back in his seat. “And he’s the biggest bully in town. He doesn’t care about messing with anyone, not even the royal family, Walnuts, and his men.” Winter tossed a newspaper to Silver. The hedgehog picked up the newspaper and looked at the front page. Big was sitting on the throne with a big grin and his frog by his side. Meanwhile, the Elias of this universe was trapped in an atomic wedgie on the floor, his teddy bear underoos so far up his backside that his red buttocks from being spanked were clearly visible. And in one corner of the photograph, someone wrapped in Hello Kitty panties could be seen; it was barely distinguishable, but it appeared to be the Geoffrey of this universe. “Big seriously did that?!” Silver exclaimed in surprise. “Elias is one thing, but humiliating Geoffrey is a whole other level! How did he even manage to get to the throne room?” “He doesn’t work alone.” Sky chimed in. “He has two guys working for him. From what I hear, they took care of the entire royal guard and turned them into castle decorations; the amount of underwear lost was staggering.” Loky grimaced and had to adjust his underwear just imagining the scene. Silver swallowed hard, feeling his underwear ride up his back. “And who are they?” Weakty placed a couple more photographs on the desk. “The first is Palms, a echidna who’s an expert in sumo wrestling. He’s not very bright, but he’s quite strong. And the other is Big’s right-hand man, a black hedgehog named Shade who has several abilities.” “That’s enough… I have a pretty good idea of their power…” Silver said, recognizing the echidna and the hedgehog as the counterparts of Knuckles and Shadow. “That complicates things…” “Certainly…” Winter clasped his hands together on the desk, a thoughtful expression on his face. “…Well! They use Walnuts Castle as their base! It’s been a pleasure doing business with you! But this is where our involvement ends! Sky! Weakty! Show our friend to the exit so he doesn’t get lost!” He hurried to usher him out. “What!?” Silver exclaimed, nearly falling out of his seat. The flying squirrel and the armadillo grabbed his arms and pulled him away. "You're not serious! Aren't they going to come and help me?!" “Our agreement was only for information and to use the bath.” The crocodile swivels in his seat. “But I wish you luck on your mission to retrieve your gems and all that. Bye.” “Be grateful Winter let you take clothes; I sometimes have to do missions in my undies.” Loky said angrily. “And we live in a neighborhood that’s always covered in snow!” “It’s your fault for always losing your clothes.” Sky pointed out as he dragged Silver out. The front door was opened, and the hedgehog was flung out. He made a ditch in the snow and crashed into a snowman. Silver sat down, the snowman’s face plastered on his own. Sky slammed the door, shaking his hands as he headed back to his boss’s office. “Is it okay for us to just let that weirdo go like that? He hasn’t actually paid us anything, and we gave him the information he wanted and even a whole change of clothes.” “Well, it’s thanks to him that we were able to pay off our debt… besides, this comes in handy.” Winter picked up the office phone. “We’ll get a small favor, and who knows, maybe that hedgehog with strange powers can take care of them… clearing the way for us.” The crocodile flashes a sharp-toothed grin. Someone on the other end of the line finally answers. “Hey, The Big… yeah… yeah… hey, I don’t want to speak for Spyke now. Look, I wanted to give you some information that might interest you…” --- Silver managed to leave before ending up with snow in his pants; his objective was clear. Invade Walnuts Castle and retrieve the Chaos Emeralds before encountering the alternate versions of Knuckles and Shadow. “How hard can it be? I’m part of the SFF! Infiltrating a castle I know should be easy enough.” The hedgehog said confidently as he flew toward his target… but he was about to find out that things were different. Walnuts Castle was quite different from how Acorn Castle had been in Sonic's time, especially since the walls were decorated with royal guards, all of them dressed only in their underwear and a sash identifying them. They were all dangling from hooks, caught on dangling wedgies so everyone could see and understand that the royal family wasn't in charge there, but rather The Big. "Ow... I think I see Antoine and Tails' father." Silver grimaced, rubbing his butt. "I'd better watch out or I'll end up joining them, and more importantly, I'll miss my date with Blaze!" The hedgehog flew high so no one could see him, clearing the outer walls and heading towards the castle gardens. The castle garden didn't look too bad; the gardeners had wedgies attached to their shoulders as they worked, pruning the bushes into the shapes of Big and Froggy. But something caught Silver's eye: a sumo ring in the middle of the garden, and something shining brightly. The hedgehog thought he recognized the gleam and began to descend. "It can't be..." Silver couldn't believe his eyes. On a wooden pedestal sat a glass case containing one of the Chaos Emeralds. "How could they leave something so important unattended!" Silver landed on the sumo ring. "Oh! But that gem has its guardian! Right here!" A red echidna leaped out from the bushes, its hair styled in a Chonmage-like updo, wearing black boxer shorts and a green mawashi with a lapel patterned with an open palm. "Stop right there! Stranger! I won't let you take that gem!" "K-Knuckles?" Silver's lips twisted as he tried to stifle a laugh at the sight of his friend dressed like that. His efforts didn't last long. “HAHAHAHA!! You look ridiculous! Hahahaha! I wish our friends could see you in that loincloth!!” “It’s not a loincloth! This is a Mawashi! It’s the uniform of every sumo wrestler!” The echidna shouted, quite annoyed, but then he stood at attention, proud. “And my name isn’t Knuckles! I’m Palm! The great champion of the echidnas! And The Big’s right foot.” Silver wipes a tear from his eye as he stifles his laughter. “The echidnas here are dedicated to sumo instead of guarding the Master Emerald? And what’s with the left foot?” “We echidnas keep the noble tradition of sumo alive.” Palm climbs into the sumo ring. “Shade is the boss’s right hand, then there’s his frog as his left hand, and then there’s me; since there’s no third hand, it’s natural that I’m the right foot.” “You’re definitely Knuckles’ counterpart.” Silver smiles with some relief. Palm spread his legs and leaned forward until his fist touched the ground. “We already know you’ve come for the glowing gems. Winter ratted you out a while back.” The white hedgehog wasn’t too surprised by the news. “Those idiots didn’t realize it, but we noticed these things have an amazing energy inside them.” The realization hit Silver. “It’s true! Shadow and Knuckles have a strong connection.” “I don’t know where you got these gems, but you’re not going to get them easily! If you want the gem I’m guarding, you’ll have to defeat me in a sumo match!” Palm proclaimed. Silver didn’t want to do something like that against Knuckles. “What if I just steal the emerald and leave?” “My partner and my boss are watching us!” The echidna smiled smugly. “I bet these things are too important; you’re not going to risk losing a single one of them.” That's when he caught Silver. He needed both emeralds to travel between universes. "Fine, fine. You've got me. I'll play by your rules... at least I don't have to humiliate myself." The echidna threw him a rather long piece of cloth, which the hedgehog caught. "What's this?" "Your sumo uniform." Palm said, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "...EHHH!?!?" Silver gasped, his cheeks turning red at the thought of wearing only something as skimpy as that piece of fabric. "You've got to be kidding me! My whole butt would be showing!" "You can keep your underwear on if you want, but you can't wear pants with the mawashi." Palm said with a grin. After all, his boxers were more like shorts. Silver bit his lower lip, internally debating what would be less humiliating in this situation: his bare bottom or the humiliating underoos he was wearing. "Give me a minute!" Silver went to hide behind some bushes to change. Palm rolled his eyes with an amused smile. “A shy boy? Adorable.” “I’m not adorable!” Silver exclaimed from the bushes, trying to deny reality. The hedgehog emerged shortly after, his mawashi awkwardly tied around his waist and… a round bottom glistening in the sunlight! “You’d better not touch my clothes!” “You shouldn’t worry about that, because after I’m done with you, you’ll be running around town crying with a red bottom!” the echidna assured him with a confident grin. “Red bottom?” The white hedgehog asked, confused by the echidna’s statement. Palm stood at attention, arms crossed. “In sumo, we have to fight until we manage to land a slap on the other guy's butt! A simple slap is one point! A slap that knocks your opponent down earns you two points! And if the slap sends your opponent flying out of the ring, you get three points! The first one to reach 10 points wins!” “What?! Sumo isn't like that!” Silver yelled, covering his butt. Could it be that the bullying in this universe has been so deeply ingrained that sports have become intertwined with tactics for humiliating others? It seems to be the case. Palm took his position, and Silver mimicked his stance. A small Chao was forced to give the starting signal by striking a gong; the little guy trembled like jelly! Silver, not knowing much about sumo, leaped toward his opponent to grab him! “Gahhh!” But Palm literally reached out to grab Silver by the face. “Hmph! Gahh!” The hedgehog tried to reach his opponent, but the echidna was stronger. The force was so uneven that Palm spun Silver around and delivered a powerful smack right in the middle of his ass! “GYAHH!” Silver was sent flying off the platform, and his mawashi fell off, revealing a red mark on his backside. “Eeeep!” The hedgehog rubbed his butt as if he'd been spanked several times. “That's 3 points for me!” the echidna said with a big grin. “Nice butt, looks good!” Silver covered up and hurried to tie the tag again. “Don't look at my butt!” The hedgehog returned to the ring, ignoring the sting on his butt. In the next round, Silver tried to act more like Sonic, moving quickly in an attempt to circle Palm and reach his butt. “Predictable!” The echidna slams his fist into the floor, causing the ring to shake. This nearly knocks Silver off his feet, forcing him to stop and regain his balance. Palm seizes the opportunity to attack! “The second!” “YEEAAK!!” Silver is once again thrown out and stripped naked, Palm’s mark now clearly visible on his white ass. “That’s not fair!” Silver, tears welling in his eyes, rushes to cover himself. “You can’t just slam the floor and act like nothing happened! That’s cheating!” “Of course not. As long as no one helps you or you don’t use any tools, anything goes when it comes to spanking your opponent’s ass.” Palm says with a grin. “You’re finished.” Silver sweats slightly as he re-ties the fabric around his waist and between his legs to cover himself. But Palm’s words have given him a good idea to win. “Okay, just don’t go back on your word later, after I spank you.” The Chao hits the gong. As soon as it starts, Silver's hands glow, and a hand formed of telekinetic energy appears behind Palm to smack him on the bottom! *Smack!* "Gahh!" The echidna lets out an undignified yell as he falls over in surprise. "What was that!?" "That's 2 points for me!" Silver says with a victorious gesture. "No, no, no!" Palm gets to his feet, quite annoyed. "What kind of magic did you use!?" Silver winks with a smile. "You said it yourself, no help of others or tools. I just use my abilities, just like you did before. Right?" The hedgehog turns to look at the Chao, since there's no one else around. The little one shrugs and pulls out a sign with a circle on it. "Grrr... I won't fall for that again!" Palm says, preparing for the next round. "I'm counting on it." Silver takes his stance with a grin. It's time for him to be the bully! Silver got creative with his powers to use against Palm. The hedgehog lifted the echidna's feet to hold him in the air and give him a personal spanking. "Eep!" The echidna was forcibly pulled out of the ring, giving Silver three points. In the next round, Silver used his telekinesis on Palm's mawashi and boxer shorts to deliver a double wedgie! "EEEK!! WEDGIEEE!!" The echidna squealed indignantly as he was lifted by his boxer. Silver grinned and started to approach Palm. "I have to admit, this is starting to get fun~" Then the hedgehog noticed something peeking out of the holes in the echidna's boxer, something green. "Wait..." Silver pointed accusingly. "You're wearing other underwear under your boxer!?" Palm stiffened at the pointing, starting to sweat. "...No... is that... sweat?" Silver wasn't buying it, roughly pulling off Palm's loincloth and boxer, causing him to fall to the ground with his secret out. "Nooooo!!" The echidna was wearing underoos, a mint green color covered in pictures of adorable woodland animals. "I knew it! Knuckles always brags about wearing boxers in the locker room! But there are pictures of him wearing underoos! He only wears boxers to hide his real underwear!" Silver said, certain that the Knuckles in his world did exactly the same thing as this 'Knuckles'. Palm closed his legs and squirmed nervously on the floor. "Why don't you stop talking about this Knuckles guy!? He is your ex-boyfriend, and getting naked won't make him come back to you!" Silver's cheeks were red and his eye twitched slightly. “You know what, I don’t need to explain. There’s just one thing you and I need to get straight…” Silver’s hand glows, and a large, energetic hand forms beside him. “…who spanks the other more!” “H-Hey! Wait!” Palm gets down on all fours and tries to back away nervously, embarrassment having dampened his fighting spirit. “Sumo isn’t supposed to be like this!” The echidna was caught by one of the hands, held so that his ass is at the ideal height. The white hedgehog makes warm-up movements, twisting his wrist as he approaches the echidna. “Since you love UNDEROOS so much, you can keep them.” One of the Silver's toes glows with energy. “What does i-EEEK mean?!” The echidna’s adorable underoos rise up, giving him a wedgie! The colorful fabric digs between his buttocks, exposing his bottom for spanking. Silver grins maliciously, raising both hands in the air and slamming them down simultaneously, delivering a double spank to Palm! *Smack* *Smack* “Eeep!” An undignified squeal escapes the echidna. He clenches his buttocks and teeth, bracing himself, hoping to resist. “Gyah!” But even so, the echidna screams like a child. “You can’t do this to me!” Another double smack lands on his rear. “OW! My boss will hear about this!” Palm thought that would stop this humiliation from continuing, but that wouldn’t work on someone who barely knows Big. “GEAK! Help me! Ouch! Someone! GYAH!” The little Chao that was there started eating popcorn while watching Silver spank Palm. Even other Chao that had been hiding in the garden came out to see one of the evil invaders being punished like a brat. “Gahh! NO! GYAH! DON'T LOOK! OWW! NO! GEAK!” Having a large audience witnessing this humiliation really crushed the echidna wrestler's pride. “GWAHHH!! GWAHHH!! IT'S NOT FAIR!! I SHOULD HAVE WINNED!! I'M THE BEST!! ME! GWAHHH!!” “You're not the best!” Silver started scolding Palm while continuing to spank him. “You're a brat who plays the bully to feel important!” The white hedgehog continued spanking the echidna for a little while longer, as his arms couldn't take much more. "I hope this teaches you to behave better from now on!" "YES! I PROMISE! I'LL BEHAVE! I'LL STOP SPANKING OTHERS! I WON'T STEAL PANTS! I WON'T STICK MY HEAD IN TOILETS ANYMORE! I WON'T DRINK MILK STRAIGHT FROM THE CARTON! ANYTHING! JUST STOP!" The echidna said, desperate for his degrading punishment to end. Silver stopped spanking Palm's butt, gently rubbing his wrists for the effort. "I've wasted enough time with you... Goodbye!" Silver threw Palm toward the large gong at the side of the ring! The echidna's whimpers were replaced by a *GOOOOONG~!* The noise echoed throughout the garden and surrounding area. Palm's face was squashed on the gong, sliding down to the ground. The echidna looked ridiculous, a goofy grin plastered on his face, his eyes darting around as he followed imaginary birds, and his cute animal underwear wedged against his ass, glowing redder than before. The Chaos in the garden were excited and rushed over to play with the unconscious echidna. "Ahh, one step closer to my goal..." Silver grinned and puffed out his chest with pride as he approached the pedestal where the emerald awaited and picked it up. "I did it!" Silver shouted, throwing his arms in the air. His sumo outfit came undone and was blown away by the wind. But even in his naked state, the hedgehog felt motivated. "EEP!" And also somewhat embarrassed. "My clothes!" Silver hurried into the bushes to get dressed again. Now dressed, Silver headed for the castle's back entrance; it was clear his enemies were already aware of his intrusion. But he found something rather amusing there. “Well, well, look who decided to join the party.” Spyke, the chameleon responsible for all of Silver’s misadventures, was there… with his arms strapped to his body and dangling by his Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle underoos. “…Can you get me down from here?” “Not a chance.” Silver crossed his arms, glaring at the chameleon. “I’ve had a lot of trouble because of you, and I’ve come to get back the emeralds YOU stole.” Spyke ignored Silver’s anger. “Is it really stealing if you get them back?” “Ngh… And why are you here? I thought you’d paid your debts.” The hedgehog asked. “Yeah, we’re not in debt anymore…” The chameleon looked quite annoyed. “But Shade thought it would be funny to use me as a bell at the back door for being late with the payment. Ugh, I swear that hedgehog will pay for this someday!” The hedgehog shows a slight interest in the angry chameleon. "So, you want revenge?" --- Silver made a dramatic entrance, slamming both doors open. “Shade! I…” But no one was there. “Of course, he wouldn’t wait behind the garden gate.” The hedgehog went to the next door and slammed it open dramatically again. “Shade!” Again, he wasn’t there. Silver wandered through the corridors, opening doors and finding some servants doing their jobs in ridiculous and colorful animal pajamas. But after walking through several corridors, he finally found the castle’s grand dining hall. Not expecting Shadow’s doppelganger to be there, he entered normally, perhaps hoping to get something to drink. “Finally, you’re here.” A black hedgehog with some red markings was sitting at the large table, drinking a cup of coffee with a tray full of snacks beside him. “Oh! Come on!” Silver exclaimed, his idea of ​​a dramatic entrance ruined. “Why are you here of all places?! I’ve been walking for at least 15 minutes!” “The seats are comfortable, and I can have something to drink while I wait for the pathetic intruders to show up.” Shade said, taking a sip of his coffee and letting it steam on the saucer. “Not like your dignity is going to last very long, I can assure you.” “That won’t be…” Silver prepared to fight, but his body and time seemed to stop. All the white hedgehog was able to see was the black hedgehog disappearing from his seat for a second, and then he was sitting again. “…so easy!” Silver finished his shout. “Ha. A pony fanatic?” Shade said with a slight smile. “Weakty, very fitting.” “Huh?” Silver looked down, realizing he was standing in the doorway wearing only the pink MLP underoos he’d been forced to wear. “EEEEEK!” Silver covered his crotch with both hands, his knees buckling inward. “T-They’re not mine! I swear!” “What? You’re saying you’re a pervert who steals other people’s underwear?” Shade sneered. “You’re the one who stopped time to take my clothes off!” The white hedgehog angrily pointed at the other hedgehog. “So who’s the real pervert here?!” Shade stood up from his seat, placing both hands on the table. “How do you know that? The only ones who know about my powers are Doctor Omelette, that nosy Zonico, and The Big.” Shade grabbed the table and threw it aside, walking angrily toward the hedgehog in underwear. “How do you know?” His hands glowed with a dangerous red energy. “Gahh!” Silver pressed his body against the door. “W-W-well… I’m a big fan?” The white hedgehog said with a nervous smile, sweating. “I-I didn’t think that was a secret…” Shade was suddenly face to face with Silver, and with a punch, the door cracked, very close to Silver’s head. “It’s not exactly a secret, but it infuriates me that a stranger knows about it.” Shade’s eyes narrowed. “So I’ll only ask you once, Weakty.” Shade raised his hand, something akin to Chaos energy gathering in it and forming a curved sword red. “Who are you? How do you know that about me? And where are you from?” Silver swallowed, hoping what he felt was just nervous sweat. “Aren’t those a lot of questions for a first date? Some things should be kept secret.” “Let’s see how long you keep your secrets to yourself…” Shade raised his sword. “Speaking of secrets, what underwear are you wearing today?” A mocking voice whispered in Shade’s ear. The black hedgehog barely had time to be surprised when Spyke the chameleon appeared, standing behind him in blades, wearing a sumo uniform, his fingers clasped together. The chameleon's eyes gleamed with malice as he unleashed a forbidden technique on the hedgehog! "A Thousand Years of Death!" Spyke attacked mercilessly! "GYYYAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!" Shade's indignant scream echoed throughout the castle as he sobbed several feet into the air, clutching his ass. Silver watched the hedgehog fly toward the dining room ceiling and sighed. "Finally! You actually took the time to do something while I was distracting him!" Spyke sticks his tongue out in disgust and tugs lightly at the sumo uniform. "If you had given me your pants instead of this, maybe I would have been more willing to help you." Silver couldn't help but be furious at Spyke's audacity. "YOU'RE THE ONE WHO RUINED MY CLOTHES AND GOT ​​US INTO ALL THIS TROUBLE!! BE GRATEFUL YOU HAVE ANYTHING!!" Spyke clenched his hands together to stifle Silver's shouts. "It's your fault for letting someone steal from you. You should learn to take care of your things and keep your clothes intact." "Y-Y-You... bastards..." Shade had returned to the ground, trembling, his knees bent inward, his hands pressed tightly against his butt. "I... will finish you both off... assholes..." The hedgehog tried to look angry, but tears welled in his eyes, and small "ows" escaped his trembling lips. Spyke drew two kunai and prepared himself. "Think of it as practice for when you have to see the urologist." The chameleon chuckled. "Though I can't take all the credit." Silver's hands glowed, lifting a few chairs with his powers. "As an ancient sage once said, if you're losing, cheat!" Both tried to look tough and confident despite being scantily clad. "Let's see how you cheat with this!" The black hedgehog said, stopping time again to immobilize his enemies. "Ow ow ow…" Shade removed his hands from his ass. "Now you'll pay dearly for what you d-" **BOOM!** Suddenly, the seat of the hedgehog's pants exploded! "GAAAHHHHHHHH!!" Shade screamed as the explosion engulfed his entire body. His clothes were reduced to ashes, and the Chaos Emerald he had hidden flew out the dining room door. Time returned to normal. The white hedgehog and the chameleon saw that where the black hedgehog had stood, there was now a cloud of black smoke and a strong smell of burning. “Hmm. You were right, even when he used his time-stopping power, the explosive tags in his pockets detonated.” Spyke said with a smug grin. “Of course, only someone with my ability could pull off something like that and attack his emo butt at the same time.” “I just hope you weren’t exaggerating.” Silver said. He knew how tough the Shadow from his world was, but this chameleon seemed to be a ruthless thug. The smoke slowly cleared until the black hedgehog could be seen. As expected, none of his clothes were spared except for his underwear… pink underoos with Disney princesses on them! The pink color stood out like a bonfire at night! “Hahaha! Cute underwear!” Silver couldn’t help but laugh. Although he didn’t expect anything else from a version of Shadow, his love for pink and princesses transcended dimensions. “You should see the things Shade does when he thinks he’s alone in his room.” Spyke teased. Shade finally reacted, his eyes instinctively dropping as he realized he was practically naked in front of his enemies. “YEEEK!” The once serious hedgehog now covered himself and trembled in embarrassment. “Y-You can’t do something like this!” Shade couldn’t decide whether to attack his enemies or run away to find some pants. “Excuse us! Let me offer you a seat!” Silver used his powers to move a chair and lift Shade into the air, spinning him around to make him dizzy. “Spin, spin, and spin!” “Bluuurghhhhhhhh!” Shade’s eyes spun like spirals as he clung to the chair to avoid falling. “Stop the world! I want to get off now!” Spyke used the other furniture to jump up to Shade’s height. The chameleon pulled out a chain, tossing one end toward the black hedgehog. Silver quickly tied it around Shade to keep him restrained. “Hold him a little longer! I have a good idea!” Spyke pulls out a rope with a hook, threading it through a beam in the ceiling. Silver gets the idea, shaking his head with a grin. But he still hooks Shade's underwear onto the hook, then deactivates his powers. The bound hedgehog starts to fall, still too dizzy to notice. Or at least he did until he came to an abrupt stop when his princess underoos popped up from his ass! “EEEEEEK! WEDGIEEEEE!!” Shade thrashed his feet as if that would help him get back to the ground, but it only made him wobble around, worsening the wedgie. And the weight of the chair and the chains certainly didn't make it any easier. “LET ME GO! I GIVE UP! YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT! JUST LET ME DOWN!” Silver watched as Shadow's counterpart dangled just inches from the ground in his princess undies. "Sorry, but that's out of my hands." Spyke smirked at Shade. "You and I will have a little chat about leaving me at the garden gate." The chameleon pulled out a wooden paddle with Loky's name written on it in red. "My partner won't mind sharing this with you." Shade flailed his legs in the air, trying to escape the vengeful chameleon. In moments like these, Shade wished he hadn't spent his money on durable, custom-designed underwear. "Where on earth do you get all this stuff?!" "What part of 'exiled ninja' don't you understand?" Spyke grinned, grabbing one of Shade's legs to stop him. "Now let's play a little game, piñata!" "I'm outta here." Silver felt uneasy, though that could just be the lack of clothing. The white hedgehog stormed out of the dining room, hearing the sounds of spanking and whining from Shade. But that wasn't his problem anymore. "The emerald!" Silver's eyes lit up at the sight of the glittering gem in the middle of the hallway. "Now I can go home and get ready for my date!" The white hedgehog hurried off to grab the Chaos Emerald, but before he could reach it, a pink frog with purple spots stuck out its tongue and snatched the emerald into its mouth! As if mocking him, the frog turned, shook its rear end, and scurried away. Silver's face was the picture of someone on the verge of madness. "Nooo!!" The hedgehog raced after the frog, forgetting he could use his telekinesis. "Froggy! Come back here! I'll give you a jar of flies or whatever it is you eat!" The frog ignored the offer and continued hopping, entering through a large double door that was slightly ajar. Silver recognized the place as the throne room. “FROGGY!!” Silver shouted, bursting open both double doors. The frog hopped up a few short steps and onto a pedestal beside the throne. “Good work. I can always count on you.” The frog seemed to smile and spat the Chaos Emerald into its master’s gloved hand before climbing onto his head. “You!” Silver pointed at the person on the throne. There sat the kingdom’s greatest thug, the one who had overthrown the royal family and seized the castle with only his two men at his side. The evil Big the Cat! The enormous feline was perched on the throne, which could barely contain his massive frame. “So you’re the one who brought this gem to my domain. Funny, you’re smaller and sissy than I imagined.” The Big scoffed at the sight of the hedgehog in pink MLP underwear. Silver tugged at his hair in frustration, and perhaps a touch of madness. “I’m not a sissy! I’m not a pervert! I’m not an underwear thief! And I’m not a freak either!” That last part is debatable. “I only said the first one. Hahahaha!” The enormous feline laughed heartily. Then he stood up from the throne, picking up his fishing rod from beside him. “Now, getting a little more serious…” Big leaped, wielding his rod like a sword to attack Silver! “Gahh!” Silver barely dodged the attack, watching as the blow from the fishing rod cracked the ground. “I knew Big was strong! But I didn’t know he could fight!” The hedgehog quickly took to the air using his powers. “Prey that can fly? No problem!” The enormous feline grinned and cast his line. “You’re not the first to try to escape in mid-air!” Silver sped off, twisting in mid-air to avoid the hook. “Ha! You missed!” But the hook spun around one of the throne room pillars, circling it three times before heading for the hedgehog’s back! Before Silver knew it, the hook had snagged the waist of his underoos, caught by the skillful fishing feline. “Looks like I’ve got a small one!” The Big jerked his fishing line, taking the hook in with it. “EEEEK!” Silver was startled when he was pulled backward by a wedgie, his body slamming into the pillar and then dragged across the surface like a rag. “Come here!” The Big finishes fishing for Silver and traps the hedgehog with one arm. “It would be so easy to crush you, like a little insect.” The big cat makes the hedgehog feel his strength by pressing down with his arm. “But I prefer this!” The Big places his large fist on Silver’s head and starts rubbing it hard! “Ouch! Ow! Ow! Ow! Let me go! You’re too strong!” Silver complains, writhing in the bully’s arms in an attempt to escape the noogie. “My hair! Idiot!” The Big laughs to himself. “Ohh, I bet it takes you a long time to style your hair like that. But I think you look better this way.” The hedgehog’s hairstyle was a tangled mess. Silver needed to get out of there before the big cat punched a hole in his skull. “Let’s see how much you like the air!” Silver used his powers to envelop himself and the feline in psychic energy to lift them into the air, which was difficult due to the feline's great weight. How could Cream lift someone like Big so easily? The Big remained calm, smiling. "Let's see if you like carpets!" The Big gave Silver a whack on the head, but due to his great strength, the hedgehog was thrown to the ground. "Arrgh!" Silver felt like he'd been hit with a hammer, not a fist. But his pupils shrank as he noticed a large shadow falling over him. The Big fell on top of him! The hedgehog was crushed under the enormous feline's weight! Not a single hair of Silver's was visible until The Big got up, revealing a hedgehog omelet. "A shooting star came to grant my wish~ I want to see a unicorn and become its friend~" "We can fix that." The Big picked up the hedgehog and shook him like a sheet to return him to normal. Then The Big grabs Silver's underoos by the waistband from the front. "Look at these unicorns!" The bully gave the hedgehog a monstrous wedgie! "EEEEEEKK!! WEDGIEEEEE!!" Silver squealed, his MLP underoos stretching out to cover his entire field of vision, so all he could see were the princesses grinning back at him. "MY FAMILY GEMS! I'M NOT SURE I CAN HAVE KIDS NOW!" This was the worst wedgie Silver had ever suffered. But The Big was about to change that. "What do you think, Froggy?" The pink frog croaked, puffing out his cheeks. "That's a good idea!" The big cat grabs the other side of the stretched-out underwear and makes a fist. "Goodbye!" He punches the hedgehog in the stomach. "BLOUUUHHHH!!" Silver's eyes crossed, and a good amount of drool spurted from his mouth as he was flung several meters, until his underwear brought him to an abrupt halt. "YEEEEEK!" With a flick of the wrist, The Big sent the hedgehog flying back. "Hello!" The Big punched him again, this time in the face, sending the hedgehog flying once more. "Goodbye!" Silver had become a human yo-yo, and his underoos were the string that divided his butt each time. Unfortunately for the hedgehog, Weakty always bought the most elastic and durable underwear, stretching it to ridiculous lengths without any visible damage. "Hahahaha! You could make a good fishing hook!" The Big said with a grin. But playing yo-yo got boring pretty quickly. "Let's take advantage of the fact that your ridiculous underwear is so stretchy!" The Big retrieves his little toy and catches it in his hand. The pink fabric is wedged deep between the hedgehog's buttocks and measures approximately 5 meters long. "A good fisherman is good with thread." The Big begins to shape Silver's underwear, reigniting the hell in his nether regions. First, the hedgehog is rocked as if on a swing. The Big then spins Silver above his head. Next, the hedgehog's face is covered by his MLP underoos, and The Big sets about weaving a pink fabric web to trap Silver while he admires his handiwork. "Can you still feel your butt?" the big cat asks, quite proud of his creation. But all that can be heard from Silver are muffled squeals through his underwear mask. "I thought so." The Big rubs his fist against his chest. "Perhaps if you cry and beg for mercy now, I'll allow you to be one of my servants and toys." “Mhpm! Mmhp! Umth! Mrrhp!” Silver yelled from behind his MLP mask. “Right, I guess you can’t talk with that on.” The Big grabbed the underwear covering the face and with a simple movement tore it open, exposing the hedgehog’s face. Silver’s eyes were watering, his nose was running, his hair was a mess, and the color on his cheeks seemed to have become permanent. “I JUST WANTED TO GO ON MY DATE!!” “Someone like you… on a date?” The Big couldn’t help but laugh at the sound of this, as if it were the best joke of the year. “And is it a real girl or one of those pillows with anime girl for desperate losers?” “BLAZE IS REAL!” Silver yelled in a high-pitched voice. “Hard to believe.” The Big said and walked toward his throne. “Although you also had something like this with you…” The enormous feline said, holding the Chaos Emerald in his hand. “That’s the only reason you’re not being placed at the castle entrance or forced to walk through the city dragging your imitation panties.” The Big placed the Chaos Emerald on the pedestal beside his throne and took his seat. His imposing presence loomed like a shadow over the throne room. “I’m not usually interested in such things, but my men insist that these gems conceal a great power we could harness.” “Harness it, or prevent someone else from acquiring it to overthrow you?!” The hedgehog said in a shrill voice. Silver tried to move, but it was difficult being trapped in a web made of his own underwear, while wearing it! “I won’t help maintain a tyranny of bullies.” Silver looked around, trying to find a way to free himself. That’s when he realized the knots were quite simple; perhaps The Big hadn’t bothered to put in the effort to restrain the hedgehog. So Silver had to think of a distraction, something big and impossible to ignore, to make this boastful version of Big the cat lower his guard. Silver could feel his head heating up as his brain worked at full speed, reviewing every detail while formulating a plan that would allow him to win. Silver knew he only had one chance; he couldn't blow it now. “Hey! The Big yo-!” “Zzz~ … Zzz~” The enormous feline had fallen asleep on his throne, a bubble of mucus moving with his calm breathing, his body barely moving as he snored. “Salmon… bring… more salmon… Zzz~” The Big murmured in his sleep. Silver had a twitch in his eye, and his lips twisted as if he didn't know where to move. The hedgehog didn't seem to know whether to laugh, cry, or scream either. “...I hate...this universe...” Silver uses his powers to untie the knots of the wedgie. The MLP underoos fall to the ground, like a used pink parachute. The only reason the hedgehog wasn't naked is because his underwear was wedged deep into his bottom. The hedgehog uses his powers to pull the Chaos Emerald into his hand. The only witness was the toad on the big cat's head. Silver gathers his stretched-out underwear in his arms and flies out a window before anything else can happen. --- Silver ran desperately, ignoring the stares and shouts, avoiding anyone who crossed his path. His eyes trembled as he saw the large door to his final destination. “BLAZE!!” Silver yelled, bursting through the door, his voice heard by everyone. The room fell silent. It wasn't every day someone stormed into the royal council chamber looking for Princess Blaze. Especially not a hedgehog with matted fur, hair like a bird's nest, a wild look in his eyes, and practically naked except for his pink underwear with ponys stretched out like a bridal train. “Silver!?” Blaze gasped, amidst the seats covered with papers that looked like they were something very important. “What are you doing here!? And more importantly! Why are you naked!?” “I still have my underwear!” Silver turned and pointed at his bottom, though nothing was actually covering him. “But my underwear doesn't matter! It's not even mine to begin with!” “Guards!!” One of the councilors called. “Guards or whoever! Take this hedgehog away!” Silver wouldn't listen to reason and walked to the center of the room, placing one knee on the floor and clasping his hands in supplication. “Blaze! I'm here for our date!” Blaze looked uncomfortable as she observed Silver, not so much because of his current state, but because of something else. “Silver… I'm afraid that will be impossible for now…” Silver's thread of sanity tightened so much that it frayed after hearing that. “…What?” “You see, you were running a little late, and an important matter came up that I have to oversee. So I thought you wouldn't mind postponing our date for another day.” Blaze said, trying to be as polite as possible despite the situation. “And I see that perhaps you t-” “ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!” The white hedgehog shouted. “I've been through a universe of bullies! Blaze! Bullies!” Silver said as if that were the greatest threat imaginable. “I’ve lost count of how many embarrassing things have happened to me and how many people have seen me naked! I just know a lot of people have seen my round butty and my wee wee!” “Why aren’t the guards here subduing this pervert?!” another counselor said. That snapped Silver’s last shred of sanity. A huge grin spread across the hedgehog’s face and his pupils narrowed. “I’m not just any pervert! I’m a splendid dancer!” Silver leaped onto the desk, kicking the papers aside to make room to shake his hips, his underwear billowing behind him. “SILVER!” Blaze nearly fell over as she backed up in her chair; she didn’t want his butt anywhere near her. “What do you think you’re doing?! You need to stop!” “Weeky weeky wooo!” Silver finally pulled his underoos out of his butt, and they fell off. “Gyah!” Blaze covered her eyes. “GUARDS!!” She and the council members screamed. Silver grabbed his stretched-out underoos and twirled it above his head as he continued dancing. “Hands up! All the time! Let the party begin! If you like it, give yourselves a spank!” Silver led by example, slapping his own ass. The guards finally arrived at the comfort room. “A naked hedgehog!” “Protect the princess!” “Grab the round-bottomed hedgehog!” “Stop staring at his butt and move!” The guards yelled as they ran toward Silver to do their duty. “Buuuurrrrrrgh!” Silver made an engine sound with his lips and started running with his arms outstretched like an airplane. “Let’s visit the jelly pool!” Blaze was still covering her eyes. “Catch Silver without hurting him and find something to cover him up!” Things had turned into chaos. “Then I’ll send him back to his universe!” --- Big the cat was sitting by a stream, fishing with his best friend Froggy. The big cat was enjoying the peace of nature. That peace was interrupted when a portal opened in mid-air. Silver’s body was thrown out of the portal, falling into the stream. “And stay away from Princess Blaze! You perverted hedgehog!” the royal guards shouted before the portal closed. Big silently stared at the spot where the portal had been. “Froggy, did you see that too?” The little green frog croaked in response. The fishing rod trembled, indicating that something had been caught on the hook. Big began reeling in the fishing line until he pulled something out of the water. It was Silver the hedgehog, wearing only Sailor Moon underoos and sporting a few bumps on his head. “...Hello.” Big greeted. Silver spat out a little water like a fountain… then he realized Big was standing in front of him. “...Hehe… hehehehe… hehehehahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!” Silver voluntarily removed his underoos and began swimming away from Big while continuing to laugh maniacally. Where was he going? Not even he knew. Big and Froggy watch the hedgehog swim naked toward the horizon. “Strange.” Big removes the underwear from his hook and resumes his peaceful fishing. “Hope Silver’s okay.” Perhaps after a day or two of wandering around naked, Silver will regain his sanity… or be arrested and held in a cell until his friends come to his aid. Whichever comes first. ----- I hope you enjoyed the story, had a good year, and I wish you all a Merry Christmas! *I break another window and leave.*
