Sonic's Shack

Sonic's Shack is a location that appears in the Sonic Boom franchise. It is a beach hut on Seaside Coast and the residence of Sonic the Hedgehog.

Appearance
Sonic's Shack is a large and round wooden hut located close to the beach. It has a porch surrounding the whole shack, a front entrance without a door and large windows across the walls with wooden blinds. The shack has a round straw roof, with a strong mast holding the roof center and smaller pillars holding up the edges, forming a roof over the porch. The shack has very few furniture, such as a hammock, a small TV set, a coffee table, carpets and a ceiling fan.

History
When Sonic held try-outs to find a new sidekick to protect Tails, his shack served as the meeting for candidates. Several met up for the try-outs, including Amy, the Fastidious Beaver, Knuckles (who wanted to make Sonic his sidekick), Tails and even Dr. Eggman. In the end, since he promised everyone could participate, Sonic begrudgingly allowed Tails, Eggman and Fastidious to move on. When Sonic chose Tails, Amy came back to the shack to demand a recall, but she soon abandoned her attempt.

On a relaxing day, Team Sonic chilled at Sonic's Shack until Tails showed his universal translator UT, who created tension among them by translating their private thoughts from the subtext of their speech. The next day, Tails came back to the shack with UT who began "translating" Team Sonic's comments into insults. At they started fighting, Tails discovered that this UT was a fake planted by Eggman. While Tails went to save the real UT, Sonic, Knuckles, Amy and Sticks stayed at the shack, not thinking UT was worth it. Later, UT returned to the shack where it gave a message from Tails and translated it into a rescue call, prompting Team Sonic to head out and save Tails. Sonic's Shack was later where Sticks practiced in dancing with her team to prepare for the Awardy Award gala.

When preparing lunch, Amy tried to set up an atmospheric setting at Sonic's Shack, but only got lack of compliance from Sonic, Tails and Knuckles. Unannounced, Eggman appeared at the shack to hire Amy to redecorate his lair for Modern Lair Magazine, which Amy accepted since she felt her skills were valued, much to her team's shock. Eventually, the team began to miss Amy and left the shack to check on her. Later, Sonic found a basket of cookies on his porch, but before he could eat one, he went to help Tails stop a rogue robot. While he was gone, Knuckles, Amy and Sticks came by Sonic's Shack and ate a cookie, which was actually evil cookies made by Eggman that turned them into Eggman's clones. When Sonic and Tails returned to the shack, there was but one cookie left, which Sonic gave to Tails upon the fox cub's request. Later, Sonic met Orbot at his shack who told him what had happened to his friends.

Sonic's Shack soon became the new home of the Gogobas after Sonic and Tails left their village so Sonic could keep protect them. Shortly after, the shack was attacked by Eggman and his robots. Sonic and Tails quickly beat the robots and got the Gogobas to leave the shack by guilt tripping them into going with Eggman and tricking Eggman into taking them with him. In their search for Eggman, Orbot and Cubot came to Sonic's Shack to ask Sonic and Knuckles where they last saw Eggman. While Knuckles was caught up in his recollection of their last encounter, Sonic told them where Eggman went.
