Traps & Zaps

Chapter 1: It's a Trap!
Sonic and the others sat on the couch, joking, playing. Knuckles and Rouge were play-fighting over the Master Emerald, while Sonic and Amy sat on the couch watching an action movie.

Tails worked on his newest invention. He was working hard on a new upgrade for Shadow's body. The black and red hedgehog had been nearly killed when he fell to Earth, and his right arm and left foot were missing. Tails, of course, had replaced them, but they needed upgrades because their nemesis, Eggman, was becoming stronger.

"Sonic, don't you ever train or something? I'm the one working to beat Eggman and you're just relaxing," Tails muttered to himself, just loud enough so Sonic could hear. "Eggman could attack us any min-"

Tails lurched forward as a blast rocked the walls of the house. His pen flew out of his hand, and Tails couldn't have had a more shocked look on his face.

"Sonic! He's back!"

"Way past cool! This'll be easy just like last time!" Sonic stood up and ran out the door, laughing.

But what he saw when he got outside made him freeze in his tracks.
