This story contains just one OC. Kindly review!

It was a regular day on planet Mobius. The atmosphere was safe from any possible harm, the environment was clean and peaceful, the people were happy and easy going. It has been so for the past three years. Ever since the Freedom Fighters defeated The Death Egg. No one had ever expected life to be so full of peace and tranquillity before then. But bang! Such a life has come now and they hoped it would go on for some time, for you never know when things take a turn.

Everyone was happy, except for a certain blue hedgehog named…

'Sonic the hedgehog! Hero of Mobius, destroyer of evil, fighter of bad guys, a huge fan of chilli dogs and of course, the most important – a chick magnet!' Sonic ended his self introductory speech in front of the mirror with a wink and his signature grin.

'Sonic would you please stop admiring yourself!You've been doing it for the past few days already!' Tails, the yellow two tailed fox said as he worked on a broken regulator.

'Sigh, fine…' said Sonic as he sped away from the mirror to be next to his brotherly figure. 'It's just that…I'm restless Tails! I've got nothing else to do around here. I miss those days when we were always out and about kicking some Eggman butt.'

Tails stopped working on the regulator to look up at Sonic. He wasn't hearing that dialogue for the first time. Ever since Sonic defeated Eggman and sent him away for good to the prison island called Kurfew, life has been 'normal' to the speedy blue hedgehog. And Sonic was never used to a normal life. He loved having adventures and chasing bad guys. In fact, he loved being a called a hero. Saving peoples' lives has always been in his blood. Now, though, as he didn't have any chance to live up to his name. All he ever did was prevent crime in the city, nothing else. What he wanted was actual adventure. He feels bored and restless most of the time. He spends too much of his time with Tails or with his friend Knuckles (which was only once in two months) to pass time and keep himself engaged.

'It's okay Sonic. Who knows? Maybe some adventure must be coming your way sooner than you think.' Tails reassured with a smile.

'Well, if it is, I sure hope it comes our way fast. Coz' I just can't get used to a normal life!' Sonic said as he sat on a nearby chair and placed his hands behind his head and closed his eyes.

Tails shook his head and went back to his regulator. He didn't like seeing Sonic idle. He was not used to it. Suddenly an idea came up inside his head. He turned to his blue friend.

'Why don't you go hang out with Amy? I heard she's going grocery shopping today and has got a lot on her list. She might need help. It'll help pass your time.'

Sonic eyed Tails, looking for a hint of laughter on his face, failing to find any, he sighed and said, 'Seriously, Tails? Amy of all people? You do know that if I go with her, she'll go hyper as usual and refuse to let me come back.'

'That's okay. You can even have your dinner at Amy's place. She's a good cook. You'll enjoy your time. I promise.'

Sonic gawked at his friend, 'What?! Seriously Tails!? I can't go out with her…!'

Tails once again stopped working on the regulator to look up at Sonic with a serious expression on his face. 'Okay then, you tell me what to do. You spent the entire day hanging about at my place doing nothing except watch TV or eat chilli dogs. Spending time with another friend in some productive activity such as shopping is not going to harm you in any way, trust me. And besides, when was the last time you spoke to Amy? Three months ago?!'

Sonic stared at Tails with his mouth open. He suddenly felt guilty. He thought about the little pink hedgehog who has a huge crush on him. To think that he hadn't spoken to her for three months was something he felt guilty about now. He didn't meet Tails eyes.

Tails moved forward and placed his hands on Sonic's shoulders. 'Listen Sonic. Life is not like how it once was now. It's more peaceful. And we all know that you're not used to it. The thing is, you've been so lazy now–a-days that you've stopped talking to people who you love the most…'

Sonic looked at Tails and sighed, 'You're right. But I heard that she's been busy the past three months with cleaning and hanging out with Vanilla and Cream…?'

'That's true, Sonic. She was busy. But now she's not. She's free today. Now's your chance to spend some good time with her.' Tails remarked as he went back to the regulator. 'Besides…'

Sonic looked at Tails eagerly.

'I know you like her… more than you'll ever show.' he winked.

Sonic burst out laughing and said while wiping away his tears, 'Alright pal, enough with your assumptions!' he waved off Tails' words and sped to the door. 'I'll see you in the evening!' he then winked and gave a thumbs –up as he took off in a blue blur, leaving Tails at his workshop, who was very much amazed at the sudden light that had appeared in Sonic's eyes.
