(I don't own Sonic or Sega)

…

I looked far into the vast depths and all I could see was fire blanketed across the hellish valley, slowly by the minute I felt myself being smothered by the intense heat with a loud demonic voice inside my head saying, "your time of full revival is almost near."

"Tails wake up!" Sonic yelled as Tails woke up moist in sweat and breathing very heavily.

"You scared me Sonic." Tails said back to him. "Well we need to get up if you want to come to your own birthday party." Sonic replied.

Tails just sat there in silence for a moment until I was fully aware of what was going on, "must have been a nightmare." Tails thought to himself.

"You ok buddy?" Sonic asked. "You look like you had a bad dream."

"Oh no it's nothing really, I just need to go and get ready for today." Tails said to Sonic.

"Well you better hurry up." Sonic said impatiently.

"Alright i'll be ready in a minute." Tails said back as he took off my pajamas and put on his shoes.

After Tails was ready Sonic and Tails went to Tails's birthday party where all of my friends greeted him: there was Knuckles, Shadow, Amy, Cream and Cheese, Rouge, Silver, Blaze, Vector, Espio, and Charmy.

"Happy birthday!" Everyone yelled to Tails.

"Aw, thanks you guys." Tails said back to them as Knuckles and Sonic brought the cake over to Tails.

"Wow, that's a huge cake." Tails said to them. "Is it chocolate?" Tails asked.

"Double chocolate!" Knuckles replied while he drooled looking at the cake in hunger.

"Alright before we eat, we need to sing Mr. Twelve year old here, happy birthday." Sonic announced.

Everyone started to sing happy birthday to me as Tails felt happy that everyone put this much effort into this party for me. Still Tails didn't feel right for some reason, Tails started to feel a little lightheaded and weak.

"Thanks you guys, now lets have some cake!" Tails shouted.

Everyone cheered as Sonic and Knuckles began to cut the cake for everybody.

As I got my slice of cake Tails sat down and waited for Sonic and Knuckles to sit with him.

"It sure is a nice day outside." Sonic chirped as he went to go sit down with Tails.

"No kidding, I wish it could feel like this forever." Knuckles followed.

As they sat down we began to eat our cake, Tails started to feel kind of hot and more lightheaded that before.

"Tails are you alright?" Sonic asked.

"I'm fine, what makes you say that?" Tails asked back.

Knuckles then went on to answer for Sonic. "Well your face is really red and you're sweating like Big when he tries to run."

Tails looked at my hand to see that my gloves were soaked, so he wiped my forearm on my head only to drench it in sweat.

"Oh, I guess it's just really hot out here, truth be told though i'm not feeling the best in the world." Tails replied.

"Well drink up some water, it'll make you feel better." Sonic advised.

Tails took a big gulp of my water bottle and kept on drinking it until there was no more, Sonic and Knuckles looked at me very awkwardly for a moment.

"You're still sweating." Knuckles pointed out.

"Here let me go get you another bottle of water." Sonic said as he got up and ran over to the cooler.

"Are you sure you're feeling ok?" Knuckles asked again.

"I'll be fine." Tails replied. "But truth be told i'm still not doing too well." Tails thought to myself as my head felt hotter and lighter by the minute.

"Alright, it's time to give Tails his birthday presents!" Amy announced.

Tails got up and went over to my presents as he was halted by an frightening image. "Agh!" Tails held my head in pain as saw this image of a blood hungry fox on fire.

"Tails are you ok?" Sonic said as he came up to me.

Tails let go of my head and looked around to see nothing but my friend surrounding him. "Yes, i'm ok."

Tails kept staggering over to the presents and started to open them slowly.

After about twenty minutes of presents, Sonic and Knuckles ran off into the woods to get something. "I wonder what it could be." Tails asked himself.

About a minute later they came back with a huge present about the size of the X-tornado.

"Happy birthday buddy!" Sonic yelled.

Tails started to run over to the present in joy until he was once again halted by a jolt of pain in his head.

"Agh!" Tails once again held my head in pain and saw another image, this time of dead corpses lying around a burning field.

"Tails, Tails!" Tails couldn't quite make out who that was as Tails's vision slowly faded and he collapsed on the ground.

…

Tails woke up to find myself in a dark and murky area surrounded with fog and swamp.

"Where am I?" Tails asked myself as he turned around to see a cave filled with pitch black darkness.

Tails foolishly went into the dark cave in hopes of finding and answer as to why he had ended up here.

Tails had walked for what seemed like hours as the light from the cave entrance had slowly faded until darkness completely surrounded him.

"Where am I?" Tails asked myself as he continued to venture further into the darkness.

"Come to me." A mysterious voice boomed in Tails's mind.

"Who are you?" Tails called, but nobody answered, all he heard was the sound of his own echo.

Tails called once again, "Who are you?" But again, nobody answered.

Tails kept on pushing through the cave until a small dim light appeared.

"Am I at the end of the cave?" Tails thought to myself as he ran for the light.

As the light grew closer and closer, Tails could smell a horrible stench, "what is that?" Tails thought to himself, Tails's eyes started to water and burn as he ran closer to the light until it revealed itself to be a pit of fire.

"What the heck it this place?" Tails shouted. Tails scanned quickly around the room to see dead rotting bodies lay scattered and burning across the area.

The smoke of the fire started to suffocate Tails and his fur started to catch fire.

"No!" Tails screamed as he tried to get out, but Tails couldn't find a way out.

"Where's the exit?" Tails thought frantically, as he was searching for a way out.

All of a sudden a bright flash came over Tails, and he couldn't smell nor see the dead, rotting, and burning carcuses.
