In a little house within Slowpoke Isle a small family of three are relaxing during the early hours of the evening.
The family consists of Sonic the Hedgehog who was currently sat on the couch watching tv, Kira the Hedgehog who was sat in a chair, knitting a baby suit and their little boy, Samuel who was currently sat on the floor and doing some colouring.
"Mama?"
The young female smiles and looks down at her son.
"Yes, sweetheart?"
The little boy blushes as he puts his colouring pen down and looks down at his diaper before looking back up at his mother, his hands behind his back.
"Me nweed a dwiaper change..."
The young female smiles and puts down her knitting needles before looking over to her boyfriend. Sonic looks over and notices Kira looking at him. He smiles back and gets up from the couch.
"I got it, sweetie."
Samuel looks up at Sonic and whimpers before holding his arms up. Sonic smiles and picks him up, holding him in his arms. Samuel holds onto his father and snuggles into his scarf. The blue blur gives his son a kiss on the cheek before walking with him to the bathroom.
"Come on, little buddy... let's go and get you changed."
Once in the bathroom Sonic gently lays Samuel down and proceeds to change him. Samuel looks up at Sonic with a guilty expression.
"Papa? Is mummy angry with me?"
"What makes you think that, buddy?"
Samuel lowers his ears and looks down in guilt.
"She hwasn't twalked to me much... and she's acting a bit more mwean."
The blue blur lowers his ears too before finishing changing Samuel and then picking him up again.
"She isn't angry at you, son. She's just feeling uncomfortable at the moment. Carrying a baby around in her tummy is hard work."
Sammy lowers his ears.
"Bwut mummy was angwy at me the other dway."
Sonic puts Sammy down on the ground and gives him a serious look before crossing his arms.
"...was that after you broke her vase?"
Samuel puts his hands behind his back again and looks away, trying to act innocent.
"Nwuh uh..."
Samuel is about to walk off until Sonic gently puts a hand on his shoulder and keeps a serious expression upon his face. Sammy continues to look away from him.
"Samuel Maurice, look at me when I'm talking to you."
"Nwuh uh... me dwid nwothing wong thwat dway."
Sonic sighs with an annoyed expression and gently turns Sammy around to face him but Samuel continues to look away.
"Yes you did, Samuel. What you did WAS wrong and you almost got hurt because of it..."
Samuel feels his eyes start to water as he remembered what had happened on that day and continues to refuse making eye contact with his father.
---------------------------
On that day Samuel was a bit hyper from a sugar rush and he started to run around the living room, making papers fly around, cushions being thrown off the couch as well as making chairs and other pieces of furniture fall down.
After constantly being told to stop by Sonic, Samuel continued to ignore him which ended up in him crashing into the mantlepiece which in turn caused Kira's vase to fall and smash onto the floor.
After this Samuel gasped and attempted to run away to his room, only to be stopped by Sonic who stood in front of him with his arms crossed.
"P-papa... I... I cwan expwain--"
At that moment Kira walked in and saw what a mess the living room was now in. She looked over and saw that her vase had smashed onto the floor and that her medical papers were now all across the floor in an unorganised fashion.
"What on Mobius happened here?!"
"It seems that Sammy was on a bit of a sugar rush and got a bit... carried away."
Kira looked to Samuel and gave him an angry look.
Samuel looks up at her before looking around at the mess he made. He once again attempted to run to his room but was grabbed by Sonic from behind who picked him up and held him in his arms.
"Nwo, nwo! Wet me gwo!!"
Samuel tries to struggle out of Sonic's arms, realising that he was in big trouble.
"Take it easy, buddy... I'm not gonna hurt ya."
Samuel looks up at Sonic and then over to Kira before lowering his ears from his mother's angry expression.
"Samuel Maurice Hedgehog! What on Mobius were you thinking?! You could have gotten yourself hurt!"
Samuel shakes from hearing his mother's loud voice.
"I-it was an accidwent, mama... hwonest!"
Sonic and Kira both looked down at him, unconvinced.
"No, it wasn't an accident... daddy kept on telling you to stop and you didn't. You purposely put yourself in danger!"
Samuel soon started to tear up but attempted to hide it by closing his eyes and wriggling around in his father's arms. He knew that there was only one way to escape but he wasn't going to enjoy doing it...
Samuel growled and angrily started to kick his feet.
"Lwet me gwo, me hwate you, me hwate wou bwoth!!"
Sonic was shocked by his son's outbreak and put him down onto the ground before getting kicked in the knee by him.
"Samuel!!"
By this time Kira had had enough and pointed to the door before angrily exclaiming:
"Go to your room right now, young man!!"
"FWINE!!"
And with that Samuel stormed off to his room and slammed his bedroom door behind him.
------------------------------------
After recalling the memory, Samuel soon realised that the reason why his mother was so angry with him recently was because he had no control over his speed. He had always wanted to make his parents proud by running fast but whenever he tried he would always end up getting hurt or breaking things which in turn ended up him being constantly told off.
After his realisisation, Sammy releases himself from Sonic's grasp and starts to run through the living room in order to get far away from his parents. Along the way he knocked down some more vases; some broke and some didn't but either way he still had no control.
"Sammy, get back here!!"
Sonic, who was now furious by his son's repeated bad actions runs off upstairs to punish him.
Kira looks back and sighs before kneeling down and picking up a piece of one of the broken vases.
"Sammy..."
Samuel runs into his bedroom and once again slams the door. He quickly looks around before putting on his shoes and picking up a blanket and pillow.
Sonic, who was now outside Samuel's door starts to knock on it.
"Samuel, come out of there right now!"
Samuel gasps and looks back at the door before picking up all of the items he had found. He climbs onto the window and jumps out of it. Luckily Samuel's house only consisted of a ground floor so he landed without a scratch onto some grass below.
Sonic angrily opened Sammy's door just as Samuel had ran off into the nearby forest. The blue blur had a confused expression as he saw that no-one was in his room.
"Samuel?"
Sonic looked around and called Samuel's name a numourous amount of times before kneeling down and looking under his bed.
He continued to look around. He checked the cupboard, behind the door and inside his toy box... nothing.
Sonic's ear twitched as he heard a gust of wind. He gasped as he saw that Samuel's window has been opened. He rushed over and looked around outside the window, frantically. He noticed the forest nearby and lowered his ears.
"No, he couldn't have..."
Sonic stood up and ran into the living room where Kira was. He stopped in front of her.
"Kira, I think Samuel has... run away."
The young female gasps and covers her mouth with her hands. She sobs as Sonic holds her close.
"Oh Sonic, it's all my fault... he could be hurt because of me!"
Sonic lowers his ears and holds her hands.
"No honey... it was MY fault. He hasn't seen me get that angry before... he must have been scared. I'll go and get him back... I promise."
The blue blur gives his girlfriend a kiss before running off outside and heading out into the forest. Kira watches as Sonic runs off.
"Be careful."
Samuel pants as he continues to run deeper into the forest. He soon trips over a rock and yelps as he hits the floor. He whimpers and looks down to see a small cut on his leg.
"I-it's only a smwall cwut, Swammy... wou be owk."
Soon a gush of wind blows and Sammy gasps before wrapping his arms around himself. He shivers from the breeze and leans back against a tree.
"Me nwot gwoing back... all I dwo is gwet in their way."
A deep howling sound can soon be heard. Samuel shakes in fear and wraps his arms tighter around himself.
"N-nwo be scared, Swammy..."
Sammy soon feels the urge to urinate and remembered what his father had taught him about marking his territory. He stands up and pulls down his diaper and shorts before peeing on the tree trunk.
Suddenly another noise was heard, this time it was the crunch of a tree branch being stepped onto.
Samuel gasps and soon pulls up his diaper and shorts before sitting down and moving his back against the tree. He looks over to see a shadow walking near his position. He whimpers and lowers his ears as the figure walks closer to him.
"Nwo, nwo! Gwet away from me!"
Sammy notices the shadow tilt it's head to the side before looking back at him and continuing to walk closer. Sammy breathes heavily and feels his heart beating faster as the shadow comes closer to him. He attempts to crawl away from the stranger but soon yelps from the pain coming from the cut in his leg. He sits back down and holds his leg before putting his hand out and waving it around.
"N-nwo! S-stway bwack!"
As the figure approaches closer Samuel whimpers as he feels the urge to 'answer the call of nature' again, due to not fully 'going' before. He squeezes his legs together, attempting to hold it in but soon starts to fill up his diaper with urine. Unfortunately, the urge this time was so great that Sammy soon ended up wetting his shorts as well.
After realising what he had done Sammy soon tried to hide it from the shadow by covering it up and thinking of an excuse.
"Me mwarking my twerritory, kweep bwack!"
The shadow curiously tilts it's head again after hearing the hissing sound coming from Sammy. It starts to walk even slower towards him, almost as though it was trying not to frighten him... but Samuel didn't realise this.
As Sammy finally finished his 'business' he immediately started to curl into a ball, sticking out his quills in a defensive manner.
