Bunnie.EXE (The unofficial sequel to Sally.EXE)
So I was just riding my bike when I came up across a CD. It was attached to a note, one I dared to read.
"Jordan,
Please destroy the disk. Don't even play it, just... destroy it.
-Tom"
What the heck? How does this guy even know my name? I looked at the CD, and it had one word on it.
SONIC
Maybe I was just imagining things. I took the game home and booted it up on my laptop. The familiar SEGA logo popped up, only, it was red. Other than that, it was normal.
Until I got to the SONIC TEAM PRESENTS screen. It was a bloody red text, and instead of SONIC TEAM PRESENTS, it said GOD TEAM PRESENTS.
At the title screen, I was greeted to a horrific sight. The title was rusty, the sky was dark, the water was red, either if someone poured too much red food coloring, or even worse…
If the water was blood.
Other differences were that SEGA 1991 was changed to the devil’s number, the music was a mix of Flying Battery and the Death Egg zones from Sonic and Knuckles with the SEGA jingle occasionally appearing, and Sonic didn’t appear, but there were 3 characters, 2 who were barely recognizable. The first one being Amy, who had a grayish skin and messed up eyes. The second one was Cream, who looked purple and was bleeding a black goo. Her ears were no longer behind her, but in front of her. And the third one… was Uncle Chuck from the SATAM cartoons, but as a Mobian. He made Sonic's pose from Sonic the Hedgehog 1, but suddenly frowned at what was around him.
I pressed enter, and there was a frame where I saw Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Robotnik, Amy, Cream, and Sally, but they were black and red with red irises. I was freaked out, but the first act came.
SPRINGBOARD ACT 1
Uncle Chuck was standing in front of a wall. The floor was the same as Marble Garden from Sonic 3 with the music from Earthbound after you beat Porkey, and the
Uncle Chuck sprite was well done, and it looked official. There was a spring, and I jumped onto it. Uncle Chuck was shot upward, and harpoons were shot at him, tearing off most of his limbs. When I reached the top, I landed on a bridge. Sonic was nearby, with another Sonic that had bloody eyes. The normal Sonic was tied up and sitting on a stool, looking sad as if he knew what was about to happen. He looked bruised and had marks, as if he had a big struggle. The strange Sonic flipped a switch, and the Modern Sonic scream from Sonic Generations was heard, as the normal Sonic was ground up in a food processor, followed by grinding and slurping sounds. By the time the sound effects stopped, Normal Sonic was nothing but a bloody pulp. The only things I could see that were recognizable were his quills and gloves.
Uncle Chuck started crying, as if he was mourning his lost nephew. After 5 seconds, Strange Sonic jumped on a switch and the bridge collapsed. Uncle Chuck fell past the harpoons, but they didn’t shoot at him. He just fell, and landed on the ground.
Uncle Chuck exploded in a bloody mess, as a loud splat was heard. The screen then faded out, going back to the title screen. Cream and Amy were missing, with Amy being replaced with Uncle Chuck. However, Uncle Chuck had the same bloody eyes as Strange Sonic, with a saddened expression. In the emblem, a new character appeared. Antoine D’Coolette. He looked a little scared, as if he had witnessed something horrifying.
I started again, but not in the same level. This level was called:
REVENGE ACT 1
The level had the background from Scrap Brain Zone, but the floor from Green Hill Zone, and the music from Mushroom Hill Zone Act 1, but it was slightly slowed down. There were 2 item boxes, one with a knife, the other with a gun. I chose the knife, because Antoine was usually seen with a sword. I made Antoine run to the right, and I saw the Strange Sonic, but he was holding Uncle Chuck's head, which didn't make sense because Uncle Chuck exploded. The Robotnik theme played, and I attacked the strange Sonic to no avail. The strange Sonic cut Antoine very badly after 8 hits, and I made Antoine hide in a cave. He pointed to the knife, and the S key appeared on screen. So I pressed it.
He stabbed himself. Blood sprayed out for a few moments, then the screen bled out.
The title screen returned, but now Antoine was there, his clothing torn and his eyes bleeding, with a hole in his neck. He still had his courageous expression, though. The character in the emblem was now Bunnie Rabbot.
No… no… NOT HER!!!
I will not let Strange Sonic torture her!
But I gave in. The level name just had binary, with the words ACT (binary).
The level was a slightly darker Spring Yard Zone with a sadder version of Marble Zone’s theme. Bunnie was standing on spikes, which made sense because her legs were robotic, and I swear that the spikes were rising. But where? The spikes rose higher and higher.
Eventually, the drowning theme played, but a little slower, the spikes slowed down and I saw the ceiling, and I couldn’t control Bunnie anymore. She looked up and let out a bloodcurdling scream, then…
SPLAT!
The screen went black, and a text faded in.
“Tails, Knuckles, Robuttnik, Amy, Cream, Sally, Sonic, Sir Charles, Antoine, Bunnie, Kyle, and Tom were great toys.”
"However, you will be the most fun to play with..."
“JORDAN.”
A game over screen appeared, with Tails, Knuckles, Robotnik, Amy, Cream, Sally, Uncle Chuck, Antoine, and Bunnie in their tortured forms. The Strange Sonic was standing in front of them, smiling, and the Sonic CD game over music (US) was playing in reverse.
After a minute of this, red static appeared, and I was brought back to the title. This time, Normal Sonic was there, doing his normal animation, but he had a frown instead of a smile.
What? Normal Sonic was killed! How can I be playing as him?
I started it, and the level’s title was HILL ACT 1. It was Green Hill Zone with a reversed, sad music. I brought Sonic through the level, and saw dead animals everywhere. I finally saw Tails’ corpse, torn up. Sonic sat down and mourned. The next level was called YOU CAN’T RUN. It was Scrap Brain Zone with the Bad Stardust Speedway background and Giygas’ theme from Earthbound. I did the same thing, and saw Knuckles’ corpse. Sonic did the same thing when he saw Tails’ corpse. Because I’m too lazy, here are all the levels, designs, and the corpses in order.
… was a level with the SMB3 Title Screen ground and Marble Zone’s background. Corpse: Robotnik
NOT PERFECT ACT 1 had Green Hill Zone’s floor but no background. Corpse: Amy
KINDANDFAIR ACT 1 had Carnival Night’s floor and looked like Disneyland. Corpse: Cream
_______ ACT 9 was a sad suspenseful tune. It had black tiles and a red background. Corpse: Sally
When Sonic got to Sally’s corpse (a bloody mess), he mourned for longer, and a text appeared saying:
“Farewell, my princess.”
I got to a new level called, ONE PATH ACT 18
This level was a static level with no background and black tiles, with the sounds of a dial up tone and screams. I came to 2 paths with Green Hill Zone tiles with a message saying, CHOOSE WISELY.
(NOW THIS IS THE PART WHERE THE STORY TAKES 2 ALTERNATE ENDINGS, THE BAD ENDING AND THE GOOD ENDING.)
Bad Ending
Not knowing what the text meant, I chose the top path. Then, one last text came up.
“I can't wait for you to join us.”
I was shocked at that message. Was this before Sonic was killed? What would happen if I chose the different path?
Suddenly, the computer blue-screened on me, and I heard a voice.
“Kyle and Tom didn’t want to play with me… what a shame… but I can play with you… right, Jordan?”
I looked behind me, and saw a Bunnie plush, with bloody eyes, a rusty arm, and bloodstains all over her.
Good Ending (not finished)
Not knowing what the text meant, I chose the bottom path, and static appeared. A new level appeared:
X's Little Game Act 1
Aha! So that's what the evil Sonic is called, I figured!
I was in a dark room, standing on a white line. X arrived, holding the tortured Tails but he had strings attatched. The tortured Tails was black, with bloodstains under his eyes and an expression of anguish. Then, the Dr. Robotnik theme from Sonic 2 played, and here's the attacks X did.
X would make Tails spindash towards sonic.
X gave Tails a knife and forced him to attempt to stab Sonic.
Tails did a flying animation, and X made him fly around.
Just like normal Sonic games, I attacked Tails 8 times, each time Tails would lose a string. Eventually, all the strings were gone, and X flew off. Then, Tails started following me, like in Sonic 3.
X's Little Game Act 2
This time, X had Knuckles captive, with a darker shade, blood dripping from his dreadlocks, and bloodstains under his eyes, and his moveset was exactly the same as in Sonic and Knuckles. I hit Knuckles the same amount of times as in Sonic and Knuckles to get rid of the strings, and he started following me.
X's Little Game Act 3
Dr. Robotnik flew in, with broken glasses, pale skin, and bloodstains from his eyes. He was using the wrecking ball from Sonic 1, so I did what anyone would normally do, only I had to hit him 16 times.
