"Sonic, where are you going now?"
 +
 
 +
[[Sonic the Hedgehog]] looked over his shoulder at [[Princess Sally]] ''(in actuality, [[Amy Rose]])'', the young hedgehog who was racing hot on his heels.
  
A small and beautiful star, [[Little Planet]]. This star appears over a huge lake, called [[Never Lake]], for only one month of the entire year.  
+
"To [[Never Lake]]," he called back.
  
The star, which was also called the Miracle Planet, was a place where the wonderful "[[Time Stones]]", that commanded Time, lay dormant.
+
"Why Never Lake?"
  
An event in which the Time Stones caused a miracle to occur, was when it would transform the polluted water, and the surrounding desert around it, into a beautiful lake.
+
Sonic slowed down a little so he could explain. "Ever heard of the [[Little Planet]]?"
  
The evil scientist, [[Dr. Eggman]], kept a close watch on it.
+
"Isn't that the tiny world that orbits around [[Mobius]]?" Princess Sally asked. "The one with the special stones that alter time and change everything around them? I heard that the planet's full of places that are completely ignored by the passage of time!"
"The star, Little Planet, where the Time Stones sleep, is suitable for my fortress!"
 
  
Little Planet was soon chained over Never Lake, and he began to build a huge fortress. After finding all of the Time Stones, Time flowed freely, and he set forth to attain his world conquest.
+
"Yeah. On the last month of every year, the Little Planet appears over Never Lake. It's that time now, and I'm going to check it out. I bet space travel will be exciting!"
  
Although [[Sonic]], who knew nothing of this plan, was on his way to Never Lake to watch the planet.
+
"With all those Time Stones, I bet you'll try to outrun time itself!" Princess Sally sighed in adoration.
  
"What? Sonic? Coming here? How convenient."
+
Sonic didn't reply. He just smiled, eyes gleaming.
  
Dr. Eggman heard of of his coming, and had a sparkle in his eye as he wore a fearless smile.
+
When they arrived at Never Lake, the Little Planet was there as expected. But something was wrong. Where there should have been tall trees and bright flowers, there was nothing but dry sand and jagged rocks. The Little Planet was tethered to a rock with a huge chain and its surface was covered with twisted, gleaming metal.
  
Sonic ran up, and saw the Little Planet attached by a chain, to a rock, and became very upset. He looked at the rock, and saw Dr. Eggman's face, inevitably, in the slope.
+
"What happened?" Princess Sally wondered.
  
"That's Eggman!"
+
Before Sonic could reply, something whooshed over them. Princess Sally shrieked as she was snatched up, and she and her captor vanished in a blue streak of light!
  
"This time, I will destroy what stops my plans..! And, with the Time Stones, I can conquer the world! Ho, Ho, Ho."
+
"What the -- PRINCESS SALLY!"
  
A blue sparkle of light, waited, hidden among the shadows behind Dr. Eggman as he laughed loudly
+
It didn't take long for Sonic to realize what had happened. "This has to be one of [[Dr. Robotnik]]'s tricks!"
  
Although it was Sonic who had destroyed Dr. Eggman's ambitions easily, can the Little Planet be freed?
+
Indeed it was! Upon discovering the location of the Little Planet, the evil Dr. Robotnik and his robot cronies had immediately set about converting it to a giant fortress. When Robotnik saw Sonic approaching, he had dispatched his prize creation, the Metal Sonic, to grab Princess Sally and lure his arch enemy into danger.
  
"OK! As long as I have courage, I can do anything!"  
+
"How convenient!" Robotnik crowed, bouncing about like a malicious rubber ball. "This time my scientific expertise will crush you! Once all the Time Stones are in my hands, I'll be able to manipulate time and conquer the world! HO, HO, HO, HO!"
  
 +
Sonic stood on a rock and thought. Robotnik had control on the Little Planet. He had Princess Sally, and soon he would have the Time Stones...but not if Sonic got to them first!
  
N.B. Michael "G. Silver" Stearns also did a translation of the Sonic CD Story.
+
His adventure on the Little Planet was going to be more exciting and dangerous than he'd planned. It was time to get a move on!

It was the infamous genius scientist, Dr. Eggman, who took notice of them.

"Little Planet, the star where the Time Stones sleep, is just the right place for my fortress!" He secured Little Planet above Never Lake and began to build a huge fortress. He then set out to acquire all the Time Stones, control time at will, and achieve his ambition of world domination.

 +
Meanwhile, Sonic, who knows nothing about this, goes to Never Lake to see Little Planet...
 +

"What? Sonic's here? ...Well, that's convenient."

"Sonic, where are you going now?"

Sonic the Hedgehog looked over his shoulder at Princess Sally (in actuality, Amy Rose), the young hedgehog who was racing hot on his heels.

"To Never Lake," he called back.

Translated from Japanese

Translation by Windii

Little Planet is a small, yet beautiful star. This star comes to the sky above the huge lake Never Lake for one month out of the year.

The planet is also known as the planet of miracles, and it is the home of the Time Stones, mysterious gems that can freely control time.

The Time Stones can turn a desert into a jungle, clean polluted lakes, and other time-crossing wonders.

It was the infamous genius scientist, Dr. Eggman, who took notice of them.

"Little Planet, the star where the Time Stones sleep, is just the right place for my fortress!" He secured Little Planet above Never Lake and began to build a huge fortress. He then set out to acquire all the Time Stones, control time at will, and achieve his ambition of world domination.

Meanwhile, Sonic, who knows nothing about this, goes to Never Lake to see Little Planet...

"What? Sonic's here? ...Well, that's convenient."

Dr. Eggman's eyes lit up as he heard the report, with a fearless smile on his face.

Sonic ran over and saw Little Planet in disarray, secured by chains stretching from the rock. As he looked closer, he saw Dr. Eggman's face on the slope of the rock...
"How dare you, Eggman!"

"This time, I will use my scientific capability to crush you! Then I will collect the Time Stones and conquer the world!"

Dr. Eggman ambushes him with a creepy smile and a blue flash of light that lurks in his shadow...

Sonic has easily crushed Dr. Eggman's ambitions, but will he be able to free Little Planet in front of him?

"It's okay! With a little courage, I can do anything!
