"I'm glad you could all come today, gentlemen…" a man said, sitting down on a chair that was on the end of an extended table. " …because we need to talk about something serious for the whole SEGA generation. Characters." The man stood up, and walked to the front of the room. "Our fans are starting to get bored with the old Sonic characters. We need to make a new game or a new comic series or SOMETHING that has new characters in it! So…" he smiled at the group. "does anyone have ideas for a new character?"

There was a moment of silence. Everyone looked around cautiously. Then a young man with a stiff striped suit that had the word SEGA on the collar stood up. He loosened his tie, and spoke.

" How about metal versions of the Sonic team?" the young man said, happy with himself. The other man made a pointing gesture at him. "Good! Anymore ideas?"

After an hour of figuring out what their names would be, the men wrote them down. First, Knuckles metal form would be called Mecha Knuckles, and because of age, Tails metal form would actually be a doll. The first man told that his best artist would design and publish the art of those new characters. The artist smiled, and agreed. After the meeting was over, the artist went home, and started right away.

Three hours passed, and he finished the design of Mecha Knuckles. The artist published it, and got excepted. A knock came on his door, and the artist opened it. There laid the real live Mega Knuckles turned off. He smiled, and put the robot in a safe. Now it was time to start stitching.

Making the tails doll took much longer than that crummy Mecha Knuckles. In fact, it took half the night to design the tails doll! But it will be all worth it when that doll comes to life…Well, that's what the artist thought…

The artist colored the last pixel, and pressed "enter". In a flash, the doll was excepted. Suddenly, he heard breathing at the door. The artist smiled, thinking it was the mail person holding the doll. The artist opened the door, but all he saw was a fainting red light. Then, out of nowhere, an extremely painful strike hit the artist's chest. He screamed, while the tails doll appeared with an odd-looking knife that was through the artist's chest. Suddenly, the knife glowed green, then red. The artist fell to the floor, with not a scratch on him.

The tails doll grinned, and snapped his stitched up fingers. A doll surrounded by red smoke fell to the ground with a THUMP. The tails doll shifted his eyes to the doll that looked exactly like the artist. He squeezed the knife in his hand, while his pupils slowly turned red.

The tails doll picked up the doll, and raised his knife in the air with his other hand. Finally, he struck. The knife ripped through the cloth of the doll, and the two items glowed light green. The doll started to twitch, while the knife's glow fainted. The tails doll threw his special knife aside, and grasped the rod of the doll witch was sown on the top.

The artist doll's eyes slightly opened, and the tails doll let go of the rod. The artist doll rubbed his head, and looked around. He noticed a green light was hanging from his head. He gasped, and got up. His pupils shrank as he saw the tails doll floating above him.
