Anchuent Prophecy

The Anchuent Prophecy of the Cherokian Clan is one of the central plot points of the entire Sonichu comic series, often being used to explain many fantastical developments in the story. Primarily, the prophecy explains why Christian Chandler and every other human being in the comic can transform into furries. While the prophecy originally concerned Chris, Sarah, and Wes's relationship, as the series progressed all non-Chris details were essentially ignored or forgotten. The prophecy is also important because it renders Sonichu (the supposed main character of the comic) even more pointless, firmly establishing him as simply the "electric creature", whose only purpose is to help Chris unlock superpowers for himself. Well, more superpowers, as he was already capable of using Satanic Voodoo Powers.

Long thought to be a simple typo, its consistency has eventually led to the realization that it's probably supposed to be a magnificently retarded "Pikachu" pun. Why or how the Cherokee would make a pun on the English word "ancient" and the Japanese word "chu" (onomatopoeia for "squeak") is unclear.

Discovery

The prophecy was brought to light when Sonichu happened upon the Destiny Cave, prompting the old man dwelling there to remark that Sonichu was "the creature of the prophecy." Learning that it was his destiny to enter the cave and learn of the prophecy, Chris accompanied Sonichu back to the cave, where he learned that Sonichu had inadvertently set off events releasing Count Graduon, an evil spirit locked away for centuries by the Cherokee and Wasabi clans.

Details of the prophecy

According to the keeper of the Destiny Cave:

“

It was prophecized by the ancient masters that the reincarnation of our leader will take pen in hand to combine a mouse and a hedgehog, and give birth to a new electric creature! Then the leader will place his hand-made medallion on the pedestal, and release the powers that were his! As well as his lady's and rival's powers. The powers will transform you all into the electric creatures, with variable powers of good, bad, and peace! Also, an evil will strike the day the original electrical creature finds the cave; only the released powers can defeat the evil!

”

Yes, that's right: the act of Chris and Sonichu showing up at the cave to hear about the prophecy in the first place is what allows the evil to escape. If they had just sealed up the damn cave there wouldn't have been any problem, but that would also mean Chris wouldn't gain the ability to turn into a furry.

Recognizing that the ancient evil could only be defeated by powers at his command, Chris fulfilled his part of the prophecy by placing his Sonichu medallion on the pedestal, allowing the old man to say the incantation that would activate the medallion as well as the Fireshock Pendant and Lightning Bracelets. These three totems would now give their rightful bearers the power to become electric hedgehogs like Sonichu. The reincarnation of the Cherokeean king, Christian, could now become Chris-Chan Sonichu. The reincarnation of his queen, Sarah Hammer, received the Lightning Bracelets and became Saramah Rosechu. The leader of the Wasabi Clan, who had been Cherokeean leader's romantic rival, was now Chris's rival Wes Iseli, and so he accepted the Fireshock Pendant and became Wes-Li Sonichu.

Initially the three prophecized electric creatures were unaware of one another's human identities, until Wes-Li attacked Chris-Chan out of spite for issues both in the present day (their mutual interest in Sarah Hammer's affections) and the ancient past (the ownership of the Cherokeean crown). The prophecy would go on to accurately describe how Saramah would have to bring peace to Wes-Li and Chris-Chan so that they could present a united front against Graduon.

Dream sibling

When Chris was ambushed by the W-M-Manajerk at McDonald's, he received another vision of his Cherokeean ancestor advising him to combine the powers of Chris-Chan Sonichu with the Heart Torch he constructed from Pixelblocks. In this way Chris would be able to summon his dream sibling, who could assist him even more than his mother. Following his ancestor's instructions, Chris used Heart-Torch Glow to manifest his twin sister, Crystal and the Rosechu medallion she could use to become Crystalina Rosechu. Joining forces as Chrs-Chan Pure, they defeated the W-M Manajerk and made the city safe for lovers.

Fine print

“

When the original medal is submerged in darkness, the dark medal will appear, and he who's name is reverse, will transform into the ultimate dark being.

”

This additional detail in the prophecy went unnoticed by Christian, much to his dismay when he learned that his mishap in Graduon's Dark Mirror Hole allowed Naitsirhc Giovanni to transform into Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc, one of his deadliest enemies.
