Hi guys! This is my very first story so please don't be harsh on me!

This is a Dark Sonic Fanfic, and also, I am really really sorry that these chapters are short!

Now... I bring you...

What Lies Beneath.

It Hurts...

*Sonic's PoV*

I was running through the forest, in the morning. As usual. It's sorta became a routine ever since I came to this town. Ahh... when I came here, it felt like the starting of a new chapter in my life. I could start all over with no judging and... never mind. I shouldn't think of that. I shake my head and close my eyes.

After my mind is cleared, I continue running.

Looking around, I actually notice everything is so much more beautiful than before. Much more peaceful and bright.

Soon, I started to near my house. Then, it happened again.

My vision blurs, my head starts to throb and I feel dizzy. This wasn't the first time, so I ignore it, since its been happening a lot lately. Not a big deal to me really. All I need is some aspirin.

*Tails' PoV*

Sonic came in and instantly, he held his head with one hand and sat on the couch.

"Another one of your headaches, Sonic?" I asked, coolly and calmly, as if it was nothing, because it was nothing, right?

"Yeah..." He replied, before groaning in pain and exhaustion. This wasn't out of the ordinary at all. Sonic had been having these kinds of headaches a lot. All he needed to do was lay down, take some medicine and he'd be fine. But, Sonic didn't lay down this time. He got up and walked into the kitchen. I was in my study. So, I got up and started walking into the kitchen to check up on him when a very loud yell emitted from the kitchen. It sounded like Sonic.

I ran into the kitchen as fast as I could to find Sonic on the ground holding his head, flickering in and out of consciousness, and squirming mindlessly with his back up against the counter.

"Sonic!" I yelled to him, even though I knew it wouldn't have made a difference. His only reply was another painful yell.

I ran and reached to the phone. Almost to the phone, my wrist was taken by an all too familiar gloved hand.

"Don't touch that phone!" He says to me. Enraged, Sonic's grip tightens and I back away, calmly and slowly, not taking my eyes away from his as he lets go.

It's then that I see, Sonic's usual bright emerald eyes have darkened to a sinister hunter green. Right as he lets go completely, they return to the well known emerald green and Sonic collapses onto the cold tile floor.

Slowly, and cautiously, I reach for the phone and dial the doctor's number. I fill the Doc in with the details before he tells me he'll be over soon. When we're done talking, I put the phone down and look at Sonic. He was still unconscious. I sigh and pick him up by taking his arms, slinging them over my shoulders. I dragged him over to the couch and managed to get him laying down on it.

Now, all there was left to do was to wait.
