I Green Hills går der rygter. I skovene omkring den lille by huserer et væsen kaldet ”Den Blå Djævel”. Eller det kalder den lokale, skøre eneboer ham. Selv kalder han sig Sonic. Han har levet i skjul her på Jorden i årevis, levet af vores rester og lært vores menneskelige vaner at kende. Mest fra den lokale sherif, Tom Wachowski, som taler med sine donuts, når han keder sig, hans kæreste, Maddie, hvis yoga-øvelser fascinerer Sonic. Han har også lært baseball at kende.

Selv søger Sonic sikkerhed fra den megalomane Robotnik hos Tom, der altid har drømt om at skifte lillebysheriffens kedsommelige liv ud med en opgave på liv og død. Han får din drøm opfyldt.
