Power by Death

okay, since I really think that sonic X should have been strictly Mobians in sonic's world (besides eggman) I'm leaving Chris out of the story as much as I possibly can without screwing up story line. (Sorry Chris fans)

Memories and new idea's

It was a cloudy day on Mobius. The week had pretty much all been cloudy, rainy, and dreary. Everyone was inside their homes thinking of what to do in this kind of weather, not excluding a young kitsune known as Miles Tails Prower. Tails was sitting in his chair next to his work desk where he did all his research. He leaned back in his chair desperately trying to think of anything that would preoccupy his mind, not just for boredom, but for sorrow as well. A few weeks had passed since the whole meterex ordeal had occurred. The first week it had seemed that he had moved on with his life, but it seems that it just took those few weeks for what happened to really hit him hard. Losing Cosmo was the most agonizing thing he'd ever witnessed in his entire life and he knew despite his efforts, that we wasn't going to be able to just let go of her. Desperate ideas came to his head to take his mind off of her, but when it seemed it might work, the memories would flood back into his mind. "Aww it's no use!" Tails said furiously.

"I just can't stop thinking of you Cosmo. Why did you have to be the one?" he said getting more furious and upset. "Why did you have to be the one to die?!" tears started to form in his eyes as the rain came down harder. Lightning flashed in the distance followed by its thunder. Tails just sat there alone in the dark. His power apparently had gone out due to the storm. "Great, now I have to reset all my clocks." He said. He continued thinking about Cosmo, and decided to try to think of the good times him and Cosmo shared, such as on one of the planets where they watched the moon rise and were in each others arms. "Now all I have left is a seed." Just then, there was a knock at the door. Tails slowly walked over and opened it. Sonic stood on the other side wet and dripping. "Hey Tails!" sonic happily said. "Hey sonic." Tails replied in a low tone. "You okay? You look really down." Tails looked over at sonic. "Come on in." The two walked into Tails' living room and sat down. Sonic still dripping wet said, "um I'm gonna go dry off real quick. Don't go away." With that sonic ran into the bathroom and dried off using a towel. He hastily came back and sat down on Tails' couch. "So what's up?" the blue hedgehog said.

"Hey sonic, can I talk to you about something?" the kitsune asked. Sonic replied, "sure, anything little bro." "Well, I can't stop thinking about what happened, you know with the meterex and all." "I know what you mean, I've been thinking about some experiences I had as well with them." "Really?" the fox questioned. "Like what?" "Well, mainly when I went to rescue Cosmo, I saw how scared she was. When I realized that the meterex there was capturing one of my friends just to test my abilities, I don't know what happened. I just lost control. It was like I turned super, but an evil version." Tails poked his head up. "Sonic, I think I know what happened. I've been thinking about that situation for a while and I think you were using the negative energy from those fake emeralds to power up instead of the positive energy. You used it just like chaos and the biolizard did to get their power." "So that's what happened. I'm just worried that I lost my temper like that. I've lost it before in various occasions such as fighting mecha sonic when we were a lot younger. But what about you?" "I've been thinking about Cosmo." Tails sadly said. "You really cared for her didn't you?" "I did, and I still do. That's the problem. I just can't let her go. I don't want to Sonic. It shouldn't have happened. There had to have been another way, but I just can't think of it." "Tails, some times these things just happen and there's nothing we can do to stop them." "But why did Cosmo have to pay the price?!" Tails said furiously. "I don't know buddy. I just don't know." "Hey sonic." Said Tails. "Yeah?" "Why did you come over here in the first place?" "Oh, I just wanted to see if your electricity was out too. I can't watch TV!" Tails smiled a little at this when suddenly, an idea popped into his head. "Sonic! I just thought of a great idea!" "What is it?" the hedgehog asked curiously. "Since the chaos emeralds have positive and negative energy, maybe I can measure them! When you used the positive energy, you could always beat the negative. Who knows if that was due to your experience with the emeralds or if it was the negative energy was weaker? I'm going to try it out! Thanks for the idea Sonic." Tails ran towards his hanger, took out the chaos emerald in his plane, and ran into his lab. "No problem." Sonic said alone and confused. Sonic sped off to see if there was something to do in this bad weather while Tails worked away furiously in his lab. Tails began analyzing the emerald. "I don't know what this will accomplish, but maybe it'll keep my mind off of Cosmo." Tails waited for the properties of the stone to finish printing. He read it thoroughly but frowned as he got to the end of it. "Darn, I already know all this stuff. My machine can't tell the difference between negative energy and positive. I guess it's based on emotions or intention. But there has to be some way to test it." Tails thought for hours but still nothing came to mind. "Maybe I can have someone turn into that dark super form and then the regular super form or something like that and measure the energy output. But who could do that? I can't think of anything that would make sonic lose his temper. Then after that, I don't know if he would cooperate with me if he's raging. I just don't" "DING DONG!" Tails looked, it was the doorbell. "coming." He yelled as he made his way towards his front door. He opened the front door only to find the red echidna known as knuckles on the other side of it. "That's it! You can do it!" the kit exclaimed. "Huh?" the red echidna asked, "Hey I don't want to be part of any of your mad experiments. Remember what happened last time I participated in an experiment? It took a solid week of showering to make me my normal color again, and frankly, I don't like being blue!" "Knuckles, I need you to turn super for me with the chaos emeralds."

The kit excitedly said. "Go super? Tails do you know how long it's been since I did that? I just let sonic and shadow do that now." "But knuckles, you're the only one who can do a specific thing that sonic and shadow can't do on command." The fox pleaded. "Oh? And what's that?" questioned the echidna. "Tails thought quickly to avoid a conflict. "Uh, you're the only one that knows everything about the emeralds. You might be more powerful in your super form than sonic or shadow because of this." Tails lied. "Hmm? You really think so?" knuckles said curiously. "I'm almost positive." Tails answered.

"Alright then, when do we start?" "Let's start tomorrow. I need to get everything set up."

"Alright, see ya tomorrow at around seven or eight?" "Sure!" Knuckles walked off for a ways until he stopped and spun around. "Hey! I forgot what I even came over here for!"

Knuckles ran back to Tails' house and banged on the door. "What is it knuckles?" "I almost forgot to ask you, how many chaos emeralds do you have right now?" "Um right now I have one, why?" "You have two, sonic has one, I have one, shadow of course has one as always, so there should be two left!" "So what's going on?" "I've been looking for all seven just so I know where they are just in case something happens. Thanks Tails." With that, the red echidna headed off back to Angel Island. "Well I'd better go set up in my lab. I have a long day tomorrow" Tails went and began setting up his lab for the following day hoping it would be enough to take his mind off Cosmo at least for a little while.

okay everyone start reviewing. This isn't easy you know coming up with this stuff. This story will get good, I promise you that!
