Sonic the Hedgehog (Shogaku Ninensei) Chapter 1

The first Sonic manga story in Shogaku Ninensei titled simply Sonic the Hedgehog (ソニック·ザ·ヘッジホッグ) was written and illustrated by Sango Morimoto. This story appeared between pages 93 and 97 of the April 1992 issue.

Summary
Two young hedgehog students, Nikki and Eimi, are walking down a street when they are accosted by a large lizard bully named Anton Beruka. With a lascivious look, Anton kidnaps Eimi for a date. When Nikki tries to stop him, Anton pushes him into a tree and runs off. Nikki laments that he is a failure as a boy, and wishes he was stronger. Suddenly, he is struck by a strange power and transforms into Sonic the Hedgehog! He zooms off after Anton and Eimi.

Sonic easily catches up to Anton and whisks Eimi out of his clutches. Anton is angry, and attacks Sonic with a chain... however, by the time Anton whips Sonic with the chain, Sonic has already dashed out of the way and jumped onto a tree branch. Anton attacks with the chain again, but Sonic is too agile. Then Sonic headbutts Anton, knocking him out.
