Synopsis[]
Two young hedgehog, Nicky and Amy, are walking down a street when they are accosted by a large lizard bully named Anton Veruca. With a lascivious look, Anton traps Amy and flirts with her. When Nicky tries to stop him, Anton pushes him into a tree and runs off. Nicky laments that he is a failure as a boy, and wishes he was stronger. Suddenly however, he is "transformed" into Sonic the Hedgehog, who zooms off after Anton and Amy.
Sonic easily catches up to Anton and whisks Amy 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.

Trivia[]
- Nicky and Amy wear sweaters with the letters 'N' (for Nicky) and 'E' (for Eimī) printed on the front. Anton wears a letterman jacket with a skull-and-crossbones on the back and a monogram on the left breast saying 'AB'.
- A note in the margin on page 3 reveals that Nicky can transform into Sonic, but Nicky himself is not aware of this.
- At the top of page one, there is a quote that reads "Don't just sit there and waste your precious time. When you want to do something, do it right away. Do it when you can. It's the only way to live a life without regrets." This very quote was also featured in the Japanese cover of Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit) and later the Japanese cover of Sonic the Hedgehog CD.
- Sonic's arms are miscolored blue in this story, even though the artwork from Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit) featured on the pages has his arms colored correctly.
