Hey guys, how's it hanging? I got a few thing s to say about this story.

Downtown Station Square looked like a warzone. Smoke bellowing everywhere, overturned cars in flames, and shattered glass from the office buildings riddled the street like fallen rain. Yet it was no mystery on who was behind all of it….
"Why wont you give up?!" Ivo Robotnik, AKA Dr. Eggman, shouted from his Egg Hovercraft down to his long time enemy, in combat, and the only one willing to stand up to the Dr.
"You have a better chance of losing some weight!" Sonic the Hedgehog responded, keeping both Eggman and his robots at bay. Sonic was only thirteen, barely into his teenage years, and yet he had to deal with the likes of Eggman on a weekly besiege. It seemed liked cruel fate, but believe it or not Sonic was perfectly happy with this lifestyle.
"You pesky rodent! The whole world could be mine if it weren't for you! Do you know how long I dream of building my great creation, Eggmanland?!"
"Same old junk every time doc!" Sonic loved to get under the doctor's skin.
"Why don't you go back to watching that little brat of yours?"
"Hey leave Tails out of this!" Tails was only seven years old, and while the brothers weren't related by blood, they were both connected by a special bond.
"Enough! If I cant have the planet ruled by my hand, I'll settle with destroying you!" Eggman yelled. "Eggbots, priority 1! Destroy Sonic!"
"Just try it!" Sonic gave his cocky smile and ran towards the bots. If he would've waited for a few moments he might've noticed a yellowish orange figure watching…
The figure might've been seven, and maybe that was a little young to be out viewing this fight against Eggman, but Tails couldn't help himself. He may be freaky smart, but he was still curious. So curious he disregarded Sonic's #1 rule about never leaving the house whenever Eggman attacked. So far he couldn't see why Sonic didn't want him here, having viewed the battle since nearly it's beginning, and nothing's happened yet. Then things got interesting when the doctor sent his Eggbots at Sonic. The young kitsune eyes widen at how cool and super awesome Sonic looked whenever he would smash a bot with a kick, punch or spin dash. Yet Sonic was so caught up he didn't notice that three of Eggman's toughest creations, SWATBOTS, were ready to enter the battle. He missed it, but Tails sure didn't. Then the kitsune made the mistake of acting before thinking.
Sonic was beginning to grow bored. He thought the Eggbots would have been more of a challenge.
"Is this really the best you got Eggman?" He called to the watching doctor.
"Oh just you wait! The worst is yet to come!" Eggman said, trying to sound evil.
"You need to work on that voice doc." Sonic said, smashing another bot.
"Oh hush you!" Eggman pushed a button on his Egg Hovercraft, calling in his most fearsome creation. Sonic was too busy opening bots like a can opener to notice three hulking machines arriving on the scene.
"Well, that the last of-"Sonic was cut off by a mechanical right fist to the face, sending him flying into a brick wall, and bringing it down. Pulling himself up, and shaking the cobwebs loose, the blue hedgehog quickly got back to his feet as one of the SWATBOTS stomped over, but Sonic cut it off with a well place spin dash. "How do you like them apples?" Sonic gloated, until to his utter surprise, the SWATBOT grabbed in while he was spin dashing and threw him into a car.
"Oh you didn't know? My SWATBOTS cannot be damaged by a spin dash!" Eggman informed.
"Th-That just makes it more fun!" Sonic groaned, getting to his feet after a moment or two. One SWATBOT stomped over to the tired out hedgehog and threw another massive fist, but Sonic was prepared this time. This time he jumped over the fist, and ran up the SWATBOT's arm, finally dealing a hard kick to the head. "That better for you?" Sonic asked, then the SWATBOT threw it's fist towards the blue blur, but he jumped out of the way at the last moment, causing the SAWTBOT to strike itself. It's mechanical face erupted into a shower of sparks, until it collapsed and sputtered to a stop.
"Score one for the boys back home!" Sonic said as a second SWATBOT grabbed him from behind. Then it slowly began to put the pressure on the hedgehog.
"Give it up now Sonic or my SWATBOT will put the squeeze on you until your eyes pop out of your head!" Eggman said, feeling victory was at hand. Sonic was grunting and wheezing, trying to get air back into his lungs. His vision was slowly fading, beginning to get light headed when the SWATBOT let go. Sonic hit the ground hard, gasping for air, but when he looked up he found why the robot had let him go.
"You leave Sonic alone!" Tails cried clinging as tight as he could to the SWATBOT's head.
"Tails?!"
"Hi Sonic!" The kitsune said as the bot raised its fist. If it had not been for Sonic's super speed Tails would've been nothing but a yellowish orange puddle. Instead like the one before it, the SWATBOT's fist met with its head, bringing it a similar end to the one before it.
"We got it!" Tails said happily, till Sonic grabbed his shoulders.
"You shouldn't be out here Tails!" Sonic said sternly with a hint of anger. Tails ears folded against his head. "It's too dangerous for you to be here! Why did you come out here?!"
"To see his best friend defeated!" Eggman said as the third SWATBOT grabbed Tails from behind.
"Put him down!" Sonic shouted.
"Take one more step and the fox gets it!" Eggman said, issuing the SWATBOT to increase the pressure slightly. It was enough to cause Tails to yelp, and star groaning in pain.
"This is between you and me Eggman!"
"Tell that to the fox! He got himself into this, I'm sure he could try to get out." The doctor shouted. "But he will be set free if you tell me the magic words I wanna hear." Sonic was lost in a big decision. Either give up, or let Tails be popped like a ketchup bottle. There had to be a way out of this. Glancing around nervously, he might have found his answer. The doctor smirked when Sonic picked up a rock off the ground.
"Last chance Eggman!"
"Oh hohohohoho! You think a rock is gonna save him? This I have to see." Eggman made the mistake of humoring Sonic. The blue blur smirked, before chucking the rock, then watched as it soared over the SWATBOT's head, striking the street light behind it with a loud "CLANG!"
"Ha! You missed!" Eggman said victorious
"Wasn't aiming for it." Sonic said. The doctor frowned, then he began to hear what sounded like metal creaking and groaning, until he saw the street light, damaged earlier in the battle, creak until the top half fell forward, completely crushing the left side of the SWATBOT, leaving the right side, and Tails intact.
"No! No! No! No! No!" Eggman cried furiously, pounding the dash board of his hovercraft. Sonic was able to pull Tails free from the grasp of the half smashed SWATBOT.
"You ok Tails?"
"I'm ok."
"Good. Now you're in a lot of trouble!" Sonic said
"What for?" Tails asked confused.
"You know very well what for! You know you're not supposed to be out here when I'm fighting Eggman!"
"But Sonic…"
Not buts Tails! Go home!" Sonic shouted, pointing in the direction of their house. Tails looked hurt.
"But…"
"GO!" The hedgehog shouted, giving Tails a shove to get him started. Tails stumbled, and looked at his hero, his best friend…..his brother…..with an extremely hurt look.
"YOU'RE WELCOME!" The kitsune shouted at Sonic, before quickly flying off with his namesakes before the blue one could respond. When Tails returned home, first he wiped the tears off his face, before heading to not his room where Sonic would find him, but to the secret room in the basement. The kitsune made this room for himself one day when he got bored, and Sonic was away.
The room itself was only big enough for a chair, a TV, and a mini fridge for snacks. He may have been only seven, but he was so freaky smart, he built everything in the room from scratch. So he sat in the chair, sulking on how Sonic didn't want him to be at the fight with Eggman.
"…Stupid Sonic. I know I'm old enough to help him with Eggman. If it wasn't for me Sonic would be crushed, literally." He said to himself. "I wasn't in his way out there, and we still beat Eggman." Then the curiosity of what happened when he left came to mind, so Tails turned on the television in front of him to the local news.
"This just in ladies and gentlemen; for those of you just turning in downtown Station Square earlier resembled one of a battlefield as Dr. Eggman once again attempted world domination. That would've been fulfilled if it had not been for the heroic actions of Sonic the Hedgehog!" Tails watched on as the news showed video clips from the battle; all showing how bravely Sonic stood against Eggman. Not even one clip was shown of Tails saving Sonic. As the clips kept on rolling, Tails was getting angrier and angrier. The final straw came when they began showing a live interview with Sonic.
"One at a time please."
"Sonic! Why do you fight against Eggman?" Sonic smirked at the question.
"Someone has to do the right thing. If I didn't do it, then who would?"
"I would if you let me!" Tails shouted. He was tired of being left out because of his age. "All I wanna do is help you Sonic! I wanna fight Eggman too! I wanna be a hero too!" He changed the channel out of pure frustration, before feeling bummed out. "…But how?" He asked himself. His eyes drifted over to the television that was now playing a movie. It was what the movie was showing that had Tails attention.
"Wait, what movie is this?" He asked himself, looking at the info. "Iron Man?" He watched more as the man on screen built a robotic suit, before using it for somewhat good things. "That's soooo cool! Why can't I do something like that?" The kitsune asked himself, before it finally dawned on him. "Wait a minute I can!" The plan was quickly forming in his head. This could work.
"This will let me fight Eggman with Sonic….and he'll never know it's me!" Tails said happily, before frowning at something. "This is gonna be tough….but I can pull this off!"
Sounds like our favorite fox has a lot cut out for him. Will he pull of this task? I know the answer...but where's the fun in spoiling it? So until next time...
Have a Nice Day!
