-Always Complimenting

Always trailing, always helping, always there.

A blur of blue followed by a blur of yellow.

Moving forward fearlessly as he followed his brother into danger.

They'd win together, losing was never an option when it came to their adventures, it was barely a thought. Sometimes the blue one flew off without the yellow one but that was a form of protection, when he had to traverse space or destroy something that he didn't think he could handle.

In those cases the blue one turned gold.

And the yellow one cheered him on.

Always there, always watching, always supporting.

If he fell the blue one was always there with an outstretched hand and a smile, lifting both him and his spirits up.

Making even the most treacherous terrain a joke.

A tornado?

"Let's race Tails!"

An avalanche?

"Last one there buys the winner a chilli dog!"

It hit hard when they were separated.

The plane couldn't dodge the blast in time and Sonic couldn't hold on, flinging him to the east until he was out of sight.

Tails had to find his big brother. And redeem his self in his eyes. That though pushed him through the pain of the crash.

He worked tirelessly to reunite him and his brother. He was sure that Sonic was doing the same.

The plane was sleeker, faster, and combined the elements of both of their old planes.

The best thing about it was the paint though.

A mix of saffron and royal blue, one highlighting the other. The name of his brother on the lining and his trademark tails on the fin of the plane.

Once he'd found him there was joy again and they picked up where they left off. They reunited on a mountain, and they rightfully felt on top of the world.

Like they'd never been separated at all.

Brothers were together again. Just the two of them fighting the bad guy.

And this time they'd win.

They never thought they'd win in without each other though.

Their finding each other was short lived. As they were torn apart soon after.

Sonic refused to leave without winning but he also refused to put his loved ones in danger.

So he fought alone.

It was weird though. Sonic was cutting it close. Some of his jumps lacked that extra bit of height that his brother provided.

Carrying Amy wasn't like carrying Sonic. She squirmed nervously. Sonic had the utmost trust in his brother. The only time he'd move is when he had something to say.

Then came the worst of it.

Forced to fight Robotnik.

Alone.

Sonic hadn't done that since before he met Tails.

It was a new experience for Tails.

Eggman's voice seemed more menacing, more deadly then ever before.

He'd managed to pull through though. And as he saw his enemy pull away he was sure that Sonic would deal the finishing blow when the time came.

He'd grown up and changed a great deal. But when they met up again, running home to meet with the other, bantering and goofing off, they realised that nothing had changed.

Their bond would never be broken, no matter who or what came into there life. No matter how far they were apart and no matter what they faced alone they'd always be able to fall back on each other.

Always there, always together, always complimenting.

Never failing, never falling, never alone.


My english teacher bet me that I couldn't write a story in thirty minutes. I showed her that I could with this story.

I win.

With the time limit it isn't that long and probably grammatically incorrect in some places so my bad.

This is how I think Tails would feel during Sonic Adventure when he and Sonic separated.

Thanks for reading!
