>Tom: You know who did it?
>Derek: I speculate it was the Xanthos Killer, recently a series of murders have started appearing, those murders involve the same methods. I can't give too much information, Kyle left a note, he wanted us to give this to you.
This Sonic.EXE is called XANTHOS. Remember that name because he's the next big hit recolor retake
>Derek hands Tom the disk, the disk that Kyle borrowed.

>Chapter 2: THE GAME
>Tom went back to his apartment, he was depressed, he honestly didn't want to do anything that night, he was just gonna order Green Peppers on Pizza for dinner and go to sleep ...
I hadn't thought about "green peppers on pizza" for over a year until I read this. It's really kino stuff, really a flash to the past, very awesome reference
>...he was honestly feeling depressed, he was going through his bag until he found the disk, he remembered the email Kyle sent him, he wondered what he was talking about, he took the disk out and found a file on the disk, the file was called Sonic.eXe, Tom thought Kyle uploaded a game onto the disk, Tom opened the disk and booted the game up.
"Tom opened the disk and booted the game up". "Tom opened the door, got on the floor, everyone do the dinosaur"
>It was Sonic Rivals 2, a finished version of the game, Tom continued to play the game, he found it strange that in this game, he wasn't able to play as Sonic, he was playing as Tails, besides that, the game was fun, the game almost seemed finished, it was better quality than the actual game, there was a cutscene, Tails encountered Sonic.
I remember someone here spamming the thread a year ago about writing a Sonic Rivals Faker creepypasta. Is this the guy? Could it be the same guy? Could two separate people really individually come up with the idea to write a shitpasta about Faker/2017X (they're the same) set in Sonic Rivals of all things?
