History Fanfic / MemoriesOfInfinitesPast

A new villain, only known as the Phantom Terrorist, has captured Classic and Modern, obtained and fused himself with the dreaded Phantom Ruby, and taken over the Eggman Empire and [[TakeOverTheWorld world]] just in 6 weeks. Sonic, his friends, and the Resistance team up once again to defeat the Phantom Terrorist and his [[EvilInc Doomsday Corporation]] terrorist army. Meanwhile, Zero and the Avatar have settled in with the surviving civilians.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: It is unknown what happens to Chester Chipmunk after that {{Mind Screw}}ing Clyde incident.

* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: [[spoiler:Zero wanted to take over and destroy the world because of the verbal abuse he underwent from [[AbusiveParents his father]] and other prison inmates. He didn't just want to be the Ultimate Mercenary, [[FridgeHorror he wanted to be the strongest]].]]

* DarkerAndEdgier: Even more so than ''Memories of Infinite's past'', which is why it has a T rating instead. For starters, a merciless terrorist army has risen up, taken up the world, and is enslaving and killing off poor innocent civillians. TheReveal of the Phantom Ruby as Clyde does not help.

* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: When Shadow took off his inhibitor rings to unleash his full power against the Phantom Terrorist, he manage to trade blows with him for a little bit. But when he was starting to get exhausted, the battle turns into a complete one-sided beatdown. The terrorist was dominating Shadow during the remainder of the fight by punching, kicking, and sending Shadow flying all around Grand Metropolis. And none of Shadow's attacks were affecting the Terrorist in the slightest. Even his strongest attack, the Chaos Blast, couldn't damage him.

* UngratefulBastard: Clyde. spoiler:Ice, Scatter, and Stone saved Clyde's life from the explosion then took him to a hospital afterwards and spent the last four years working to earn money for his recovery and insurance. He ends up [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness dismissing them as useless and murdering them instead]].

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: The Phantom Terrorist, [[spoiler: after his {{Reveal}} as Clyde]], gives one to Zero, which simply drowns him in nothing but guilt.
--> '''Clyde''': His wife, Ellie the jackal, passed away by bringing you into this world. He hated you for the death of his beloved, just like you hate Shadow for the death of your squad." Zero is now starting to look at Clyde in horror. "When I tracked him down, I thought that you might be related to him because you two share a resemblance to each other. After I showed him that wanted poster, he told me that you're his son, and he joined me for one last time so he can get the chance to kill you out of vengence. You fused with the Phantom Ruby - not only to get stronger, but to destroy Shadow for the same reason. Am I wrong? It's quite tragic to see the ones you love die in front of you. Especially, when they died from your foolish mistakes. You killed your mother when you were born, but it was Axel's decision to have children in the first place. Shadow killed your squad, but you were the one who got them involved with Eggman to begin with. Are you sure that Shadow killed them out of cold-blood or did he do it out of self-defense? Are you certain that they all didn't attempt to murder him when they first saw him? After all, Eggman did ordered them to destroy any intruder who enters his facility, did he not? You're just as guilty of their demise as he is. And Infinite's birth was no one to blame but yourself. Do you really believe that becoming a hero can help you redeem yourself from the lives you took? The jackal squad wanted to build their own empire, right? That's quite an interesting motive. I say it would've took them 10 more years for it to happen. But at least they would've lived to get the chance to see it come true. I wonder how Stryker would feel about you now. Wouldn't he have wanted you to take care of the squad as the new Ultimate Mercenary? Do you think that he would've wanted you to join Eggman for power? And after what Infinite's done, do you really have any right to think I'm a Scumbag?

--> [[spoiler:'''Clyde''']]: Hahah… Fools. You were nothing but tools to me since the very beginning. Besides, it's your fault. You were the ones who decided to save me. You could've left and lived your own lives, but you chose to stay and serve a man who never cared about you to begin with. Now, that I have the Phantom Ruby in my hands, I can create henchmen that are far superior to you three in every way. It's been fun, boys, but your assistance is no longer needed. Sayonara.

** '''Radar, Ace, and Scar''': Radar, Ace, and Scar were brought to an orphanage in Greycity. The orphanage was so poor that the staff were too lazy to name the nameless three. The three jackals escaped by tying bed sheets together to make a rope and climbing out of the window. They sneaked into Stryker's truck and threatened Stryker to drive them away from the city. Stryker offered to accept the three into the Jackal Squad and they accepted.

In March 2019, the author published ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13224309/1/Sonic-Forces-Chapter-2 Sonic Forces Chapter 2]]'', a {{Sequel}} to both ''Memories of infinite's past'' and ''Sonic Forces'' that is basically ''Sonic Forces'' over again but with a new enemy.

''Memories of infinite's past''[[note]][[YouMakeMeSic Yes]], the work is capitalized like that[[/note]] is a ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' [[ScriptFic Script]] PseudocanonicalFic that serves as (mostly) a {{Prequel}} to ''VideoGame/SonicForces'' and tells what might have been a possible {{Backstory}} for Infinite, the game's BigBad.

* DarkerAndEdgier: While still PG-level and dark as ''VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog'', thus not edgy enough to be a DarkFic, ''Memories of infinite's past'' gives {{Dark and Troubled Past}}s to members of the Jackal Squad, throws in swordfights and bombs, averts NeverSayDie, has TheBigBad being a CompleteMonster, and uses [[AbusiveParents child abuse]] as the driving trope behind Infinite's backstory.
