Hi Everyone, this is just my first shot at this, so please keep that in mind while reading and reviewing.
When Tails woke up that morning in his and Sonic's house in the Mystic Ruins, he had no idea that that day would change his life, as well as all his friends' lives.
Tails opened his eyes and got out of bed. He got into the kitchen and saw Sonic making breakfast.
"Hey buddy, good morning" Said Sonic while chowing down on his 3rd chilidog that morning.
"Morning Sonic" Replied Tails as he sat down at the table.
"Oh, this came in the mail for you today." Said Sonic as he handed him an envelope addressed to a 'Miles Prower'. " I think it's from the orphanage" he added.
"Maybe they have some stuff for me to collect, y'know since I lived there for the first two years of my life" said Tails as he opened the envelope.
"Dear Mr Prower,
We have something for you to collect, if you could visit us and pick it up as soon as possible and get it off our hands as soon as possible, please.
Sincerely, Station Square Orphanage" said Tails as he read the letter out loud.
"Well, we ain't got nothing to do for the day, so how about we collect it after breakfast" suggested Sonic.
"Cool, what's for breakfast anyway?" asked Tails.
"Chilidogs, of course!"
2 Hours Later
Sonic and Tails entered the orphanage to see a hippo receptionist sitting at a desk, writing. Sonic coughed to get her attention and she looked up.
"How can I help you, gentlemen?" said the hippo.
"Hi, I'm here to collect a package for a 'Miles Prower', I was sent a letter this morning" said Tails.
"Ah, I see", the hippo turned around and shouted around the corner, "He's here!"
Sonic and Tails looked at each other and then back at the corner.
Around the corner a young fox, identical to Tails, peeked his head slowly around the corner slowly as if he was scared.
Sonic and Tails mouths opened in amazement.
"Holy Shit" Sonic muttered under his mouth.
The young fox came around the corner, walking slowly to the side of the desk. He was wearing a backpack and shoes like Tails, with the colours inverted.
"This is your package, young Meters Prower" she declaired.
Meters was hiding behind the desk poking his head out.
"Ummmmm…" Sonic and Tails were speechless.
The hippo cleared her throat and continued, "In his bag are all the essentials. Spare clothes, pyjamas, diapers, pacifier, etc." she said.
Sonic finally managed to blurt out, "How old is he?" he asked.
"2 years old" she repied.
"And a half" Meters muttered under his breath.
Tails smiled at Meters then turned back to the hippo. "So, are we supposed to keep him?"
The hippo was writing again and stared up in half-annoyance. "Yes, now leave" she said impatiently trying to get on with her work.
"….Right…." Sonic said as him and Tails turned to leave. Sonic looked back to see Meters standing there.
"So, ya coming, buddy" Sonic asked.
The young fox half-smiled and waddled along after them, obvious he had just started walking.
"Good riddance" the hippo muttered as they all left.
All right, you're all probably wondering why I chose a stupid name like, Meters. Well, I first thought Miles per hour, then Kilometres per hour and thought that was a mouthful. I cut it down to Meters because well it's alliteration with Miles, so it kinda make sense.
Ages are:
Sonic: 15
Tails: 11
Meters: 2 (and a half)
Amy: 12
Knuckles: 16
That's all the characters I am revealing right now so please Review.
