Adam the Forsaken in the Sonic Universe Chapter 1: The Journey to Death Valley
Dateline: December 16th, 2000 C.E.
Adam the Forsaken had only five days ago got his revenge on everyone who ever wronged him even in the slightest. He did it in such a way that the people he got revenge on were never seen again. Those that did not pick on him growing up or contributed in even the slightest way towards ruining the closest thing to a life he had were the only ones left in the city of Covina and West Covina. A mixture of relief and regret that it had to come to this fill the mind of the young cat boy. He never celebrated Christmas ever and he would certainly not after what he had to do during a party associated with it to ensure all who wronged him were not seen again.
The ones who remained had waited for 3 days to hear back about whether their loved ones had been found. When no trace of them turned up people packed only what they could easily carry and left everything else behind. People who owned stores and malls left their supplies behind except what was needed to survive. Adam now had two cities to do with as he pleased. However, he desperately wanted to get away from his world and maybe forget his troubles even if only for a brief time. His book of necromancy contained many secrets inside that even he had never known.
His ability to open death gates enabled him a convenient way to travel from place to place. However, he could only use the death gates to travel to places on a map or ones he?d been to before. What he did not know was deep in the Death Valley Desert a blond-haired blue-eyed cat boy was hard at work preparing a means of traveling into different dimensions and worlds to explore alternate realities.
Adam put on a grim reaper cloak to hide his identity and wandered to the nearest city with people in it. He deactivated the alarm of a car at the abandoned used car lot, went to the office of the used car lot, broke into the building and grabbed the key for a brown Chevy Nova which had been discontinued in 1988. Given that fact, it was a shock one could even be found in such a place. It was a rather hearty car for sure as his dad boasted having his for over 10 years. Adam got into the car and since Adam did not know how to drive a car one of his ghosts took control of it and drove Adam for 11 minutes to reach San Dimas the city of his birth.
He went to the nearest restaurant he could find and heard rumors of a mysterious hotel mirage people saw if they crossed the Death Valley desert between California and Nevada. This intrigued Adam and he wanted to know more. Adam ordered a hot chocolate while he listened to the rumors.
After finishing his hot chocolate, he paid the bill and hit the road towards Death Valley desert. Much to his amazement he indeed saw a hotel as he drove for 4 hours. Despite how close it seemed it felt like he was going nowhere. He was not getting closer and not getting farther. He eventually ran out of gasoline for his car and there were no car phones on the side of the road. He sighed figuring this was the end for him, the bitter inglorious end. He fell asleep it being late at night by this point in time.
Adam The Forsaken got bored one day and decided to explore new places. Little would he suspect that he wasn't the only cat boy in the world. He decided to humor this other cat boy and take a portal into where else but the Sonic Universe. How will he fair in a world so different from his own?
