First Meeting


"Tails I thought you said we were gonna' go down to the beach already!" Sonic complained as he walked along down the marketplace with his more than eager little brother.

"Amy and Knuckles are waiting for us."

"We'll be there," Tails reassured him. "I just to buy the lasted Phillips screwdriver to fix my Unbolterizer and then we can get outta' here."

"Alright just be quick," Sonic huffed before Tails ran off into the store excitedly.

Tails strolled up the cashier and asked "I'd like to have the newest Phillips Screwdriver please!" He exclaimed ever so politely. He could wait to go home and put his new tool in its own special place along with the other tools on his most treasure wall and even his prized tool box. His thought moved to his plane. Going back to the workshop, and tuning it up and-

"Sorry we're out." The cashier said plainly.

A record scratched in the fox's head. "What! That's impossible! I'm practically the only one in the village who buys tools from you."

"I'm sorry, but someone already came in and bought the last one."

"Who?"

The cashier simply pointed to a young girl who was currently viewing packets of bolts and comparing brands.

Even having an advanced mind like his, Tails couldn't comprehend how he was feeling when he saw her. He actually couldn't explain it. To Tails this wasn't some 'girl'. Just by looking at her, he felt his mind go numb.

'What is this feeling…' Amy nor Sticks gave him the sensation he was feeling, but then again… Amy didn't wear that exquisite red dress* she had on that seemed to compliment her so well. Sticks didn't have blonde hair that her glow like sun (although maybe not as hot). And neither of them, like many of the people on the island (other than Eggman) didn't have the same the high level of intellect as he did.

His eyes glanced further down and gasped… 'A fox tail!'

"Is the feeling that Amy was talking about," Although Amy tells the group that she doesn't a crush on anyone (albeit Tails always thought wasn't much truth in that). She did say there was going to be a time when he would see women in a completely different perspective.

And his big sister right. If the world was in colour before then now he was seeing in 1080p HD (A/N Ignore my tech jokes)

The girl then found whatever she was looking for and started walking in Tails' direction, who was currently panicking. It looked like she was walking in slow motion and her hair was blowing majestically in the wind, looking at him directically in the eyes.

'She's coming this way! If there's a time to act like Sonic, then now's the time!' Tails desperately tried to make himself look cool and relaxed in the way Sonic taught him so he attempted to lean on the cashier's table… that was about 2 inches away from him and therefore he fell to floor embarrassed.

"Owwwww" Tails moaned and facepalmed.

"Are you okay?" A calming and ever so sweet asked him. Tails looked up groggily to see the girl of his 2 minute dreams and immediately straighten himself out and stood up with her help.

"Just perfect…" The boy said simply as he stared into her bright blue eyes that he felt her hypnotizing him. 'I hope she isn't related to Justin Beaver.'

Tails then looked down and realised that she was still holding his hand and then suddenly released it. 'Was she sliding on carpet or something. Her hand felt like it had more electricity than my enerbeam!'

The mystery girl smiled a smile that could warm up all the baby penguins Amy wanted to raise money for, "I'm glad you're alright, you looked like you took quite a fall there Tails." She patted him on the back and maneuvered past the male fox to pay for items. 'She knows my name...'

"10 bucks exactly!" She daintily passed her money over the table.

"Alright, thanks Zooey!" She shopkeeper said goodbye to her as she walked out of the store past Sonic who was still waiting outside.

"What's taking him?" He thought aloud. Right on cue, his little brother came out of his favourite shop, looking like a zombie; his mouth agape and moving so slow it barely counted as walking.

"Buddy! What's up? You look like you've seen a ghost." Sonic said worriedly.

Tails looked in the distance to see Zooey walking into the sunset. "No, an angel…"
