Okay, reading all of those Sonic fics made me start my own. This story will have my OC, Rena Prower, Tail's older sister, and Tails as Main Charaters, and this will be a crossover with X-Men. Let's see how you like what I'm going to do. Anyway, read on. I'm probably going to work on this the most, since I am so mind-crammed with this story, but for those who are worried about my other stories, don't worry, I have at least on more chapter for each one on paper that will be updated...eventually. Hey, don't kill me! I get lazy, we all do! Until next time, read and enjoy!
Prologe: City Under Seige!
Fire.
That was all that Rena (A/N: Pronounced Ree-na) Prower could see and smell. The seven-year-old fox was hiding under a table in a city in the Great Forest. Her wide eyes saw fire and shadows. Her nose smelled smoke, burning flesh, and lubricant oil. Her ears heard screams of fright, of despair, and the soft sobs of her baby brother crying into her shoulder.
"It's okay, Miles." She whispered into the baby fox's ear. "It's okay, we'll get out of here."
Miles slowly stopped crying, only hiccuping slightly, a little comforted. But Rena had whispered false bravado into his ear. As the baby fell into a fitfull sleep, his sister knew there was a small chance of their survival.
And it seemed that the Ancient Walkers didn't like those two little fox children, because a dozen of Robotnic's swatbots came into the demolished house of their fostor parents and saw them.
She ran. She blasted toward the back door, knowing that she was being followed.
But living in this city for all of her seven years had it's perks. She knew most of the shortcuts and knew that she could take them. But she could only hope and pray that she had not been seen taking them.
Finally, in the town square, they were caught. But she still didn't give up. She set Baby Miles in an empty water trough and took a fighting stance. She didn't know what she was going to do, but she wasn't about to let them take Miles. Not without a fight. Indeed, as the first swatbot advanced on her, she leapt into the air and planted her foot in it's face.
The fight went on, with her wondering how she knew all of those moves, but it was obvious that Rena was weakening. By the time they had her, though, a blue blur slammed into the swatbots, turning them into scrap metal.
A blue hedgehog with red-and-white trainers stood in front of her. She recognised him immidietly: Sonic the Hedgehog, Freedom Fighter.
"Hey, are you alright?" he asked.
Gasping for breath, Rena nodded. Then she gasped in fear and ran to the trough. To her relief, Little Miles was still there, sleeping.
Suddenly, more swatbots turned a corner several blocks away and started toward them.
Eyes wide with fear, Rena picked up her little brother and turned to Sonic.
"Mr. Sonic, take Miles." She said, putting the year-old fox in the hedgehog's arms. "Please, take him somewhere safe."
Sonic started to open his mouth to reply, but his eyes caught sight of the baby's tail, or tails. Two of them.
Rena had noticed where his eyes had fallen. "Please don't treat him bad because of his tails." She said deperatly. "He's not a freak, he's the sweetest little boy."
"Okay, I'll take him." Sonic said. "But what about you?"
"You can't carry both of us, and I don't care what happens to me, as long as Miles is safe." Rena snapped, surprising Sonic. "If you can leave him somewhere safe, then come back for me. But don't you dare leave him in the open."
Sonic stared at her, his jaw working like a goldfish. It was obvious that Rena loved her brother very much. He shook his head, nodded, and said. "I'll be back." before he took off.
Rena turned back to the swatbots, back in her fighting stance. She fought bravely, but by the time Sonic came back, it was too late.
