This could go under Storyline, or even Fanwank I guess, but I wanted to put it here 'cause Chaos Control belonged to Shadow first, everyone else copied off of him. I hope its not to speratic. I plan to post it in a few other parts of the interweb, mainly my art account. Without further adew, the best example of how much of a geek I really am. xD
Rawr, to much time to think on my hands. So, what do you think? ;D
WARNING/DISCLAIMER: This is applying scientific theory to video games, and therefore has scientific content. Don't read if you don't want to learn. I've only done this because I was bored. I don't want to hear things like, 'Applying real life things to video games is stupid' or 'you're a geek'. Besides, applying scientific things to things that interest you, even if their fantasy, it's a good way to learn them. Shadow, Chaos Control and all other characters/abilites that could be/are mentioned in this from the 'Sonic The Hedgehog' game series are copyrighted SEGA and SONIC TEAM.
Alright, so I can't remember where this first came from, I honestly don't. I think it might have been a while back when I saw a couple people talking about how exactly the Chaos control worked. Pardon if my memory is faulty, but I think it was whether the user speed themself up, of if some type of teleportation was involved. Well, it started to make me think, which is never a good thing. Because its not long before a few thoughts turn into one of these things.
So, as I said, this is mainly about Chaos control. How exactly it works, and how its slightly counterdicting uses can all be explained without said explanation being counterdicting as well. This might even wind up giving a logical explanation to how exactly Shadow and Sonic could breathe in space. Lets not hope for miracles though.
'They show Shadow just going faster then everything else, he's obviously just warping time to speed up.'
'Well, if he's just speeding up, how could Sonic escape that explosion? He was obviously to weak just to slow down time, and bust out. Plus, how did he get back on the ARK where Knuckles was?'
'But if he teleported, how could Shadow attack in the middle of a teleportation.'
Ah, don't you love these types of 'discussions'? After a bit of memory searching, I believe this was what started the 'discussion' I saw. Here's where the science starts to get going.
First, I'm just going to give a quick definition of teleportation and preforming a time warp. At least the way I see it.
Teleportation: This has two methods I can come up with. The first is using a worm hole to connect the two areas of space and jump through it. The second is preforming a dimensional jump, then another to get where your going. Either one follows a simple rule, you cannot interact in this reality again until you arrive at your destination.
Time warping: Time warping is simply the manipulation of time to either slow down things around you, or increase your own speed.
Now, if you don't agree with what I'm saying, and don't like other peoples opinions, you might want to stop reading here. If only the first of those two apply, feel free to continue.
This can all be explained by E=MC². Yep, Eienstein's theory of relativity. Lemme just grab the meaning of the letters from www.wikipedia.com real quick in case you don't know them.
E = the energy equivalent to the mass (in joules)
m = the mass (in kilograms)
c = the speed of light in a vacuum (celeritas) (in meters per second).
Now I'm just going to do a quick nutshell explanation of what the theory means in accordance to time travel. This is the way it was explained to me, so if I'm wrong and this is off, you can tell me nicely. Basically, it says that everything is made up of some type of energy, and if you increase that energy to the speed of light, the said object turns to pure energy. In this way, you can go faster then the other objects made of energy that aren't going the speed of light, and therefore move through time. This can be going forward, backward, or just moving to another location in the same time your in.
Now, something you often have mentioned with time traveling is hyper/mach/warp space. More or less, you speed up to the speed of light to enter Hyper Space. This is more or less hoping into a different dimension. This dimension can also be used to transport to another place or time with control.
So, what does this have to do with Chaos Control? Well, this can explain being both able to time warp, and teleportation. We'll say Chaos control works by speeding and slowing the energy of the user and anything the user wants to come with them. Then, the user could use it to increase their energies speed and move faster then everything else. This explains why they can show Shadow going faster then everything else.
But this same ability could also be used to speed up to the speed of light, enter hyper space, and come out at another point within milliseconds.
Taking in consideration the portal ability you see in Sonic The Hedgehog 2006, using two emeralds to create a portal, using a single emerald is probably has limited control in hyper space, meaning you can only go to and from different places in the 'present' you're currently in. Using the second emerald allows you to break free of this limitation, and move along the timeline.
Now, I'm going to make an attempt to explain how they were able to breathe in space. It could be that they turned into almost pure energy, and therefore didn't really need to breathe at the time. I don't have much back up for this, so its just an idea.
Well, I'm finished rambling on now, and I feel better since I got this typed up.
