I had just once again defeated one of Dr. Eggman's Robots, in Chun-Nan. I told Tails to meet me at the Great Wall the next day, so I wait for him to arrive. But that doesn't mean I'm patient. I ran up and down the wall, speeding up and down it at super-sonic speed. I slowed down, hearing the drone of a plane engine.
The biplane 'Tornado' zooms overhead, and I smile to it's driver as the plain levels down to me.
"Yo, Tails! Long time no see!" I shout over the loud engine.
He smiles back with enthusiasm, "Ready for our next adventure, Sonic?"
"Yeah!" I said as I flash my trademark grin, "You know I'm ready for anything!"
I leapt off the wall and over the edge, landing on the wing of the biplane. Tails flew it up to high altitude with me still riding on the wing, as I much more preferred.
"Alright, hit me. What's Robutnick up to now? What new robot does he have for me to trash?"
Tails giggled at my remark then spoke in a more serrious tone, "Well actually, it isn't Eggman causing trouble this time…"
I looked up, interested in a new challenge,"Oh, really? Who's face do I need to smash in this time?"
"Well, I've heard rumors of ancient spirits coming back to the flesh…"
I shivered, "Creepy…"
" Yeah, and from what I've heard, they aren't kind spirits either… they have come out in the night and tormented people, they apparently drag people out of they're own houses at midnight, and many people have gone missing without a trace…"
"Sounds to me like another punk trying to take over. Ha! I'll teach him a lesson he'll never forget…"
I smiled at my little brother, who gave me a nod. I leapt onto the center wing and threw my arms out, feeling the wind rush through my quills. I smiled widely.
I love that feeling. The wind in my quills… It makes you feel so … Alive. That feeling is the greatest in the world… little did I know what I was getting myself into…
