Foreword

I wanted to explain a few things before we begin, feel free to skip this if you'd like. First, I should mention that this story has nothing to do with any of my other stories, those were their own little world, and they will stay that way. I don't like any of the new characters introduced into Sonic for the past decade or so I have decided not to include any of them. I have the characters from the original comics/ SatAM, as well as Knuckles (who has an Australian accent if you were wondering). I don't like "Eggman" so I'm sticking with the good old Robotnik, with Snively as the sidekick. This has been rated R/M, whatever the fuck you want to call it, for dirty, dirty language and suggestive themes for lack of a better term. If you don't like any of that shit, don't read it, and if you do, enjoy.

Rules of Enragement

"Are you gonna munch this or what?" Sally asked.

"Hey Sal, that's awfully forward…" Sonic began and then realized she was offering him a chilidog.

"Come on Sonic, don't talk like that when Tails is in the room. You are always such a horrible influence on him," Sally chastised.

"Oh fuck Tails, you can't go and blame this shit on me like that. I thought I was going to get some action. What does 'are you gonna munch this or what' sound like to you?" Sonic asked.

"I was offering you a chilidog," Sally said, "it's not my fault you were thinking with your dick."

"I don't get it Auntie Sally, what did Sonic think he was going to munch on?" Tails asked.

"Tails, just forget about everything we were talking about, okay?" Sally pleaded.

"I was just curious Auntie Sally, because Sonic is always saying these strange things that I never understand," Tails said.

"Well Tails, Sonic is what you would call a pervert. Now that's really all you need to know, so go and help your Aunt Bunnie."

"Okay, thanks for the chilidogs Auntie Sally." Tails turned and walked out of the room. Once Tails was out of sight, Sally rounded on Sonic.

"Sonic, why do you have to keep bringing shit like this up while Tails is around? You knew that I was cooking dinner, you're going to dement him."

"First off Sally, Tails is already a deranged motherfucker, there is not really anything I can do about that. Second, you said 'munch' and that in and of itself has perverse sexual tie-ins. That's like me fixing you a popsicle saying 'are you going to suck this or what?'."

"Sonic, just try not to swear or use lewd language around Tails. And stop thinking about sex all the time."

"You know, it just might help if you wore some clothes once in a while, you have no idea what it's like to look at you naked all day," Sonic responded.

"Umm, actually you aren't wearing any clothes either Sonic."

"Yeah well, I'd say that on average I free-ball 65 percent of the time. Anyway, that's not really the point, I'm a guy and I'm in a completely different position when I see nude women."

"I don't know Sonic, but I have a pretty good idea of what you are trying to do. You're changing the subject because you hate it when I have to talk to you about Tails. So you're trying to maneuver around it, but it's not going to happen. Yesterday Tails told Antoine to go fuck himself when he asked for help. You can bet your ass that it isn't Rotor who's giving him these ideas."

"Sally, you know that everybody here tells him not to listen to the shit that I say. Plus, I mean, he told Antoine to fuck himself, I don't really see the problem there. All this talking is, you know, getting me in the mood," Sonic said as he raised his eyebrows.

"Damn it, you are so infuriating sometimes, why are you acting like such an asshole? Let's just drop this whole fucking thing now. I have things that I need to get done and I don't need your bullshit, goodnight," Sally said and started to leave, once outside she stopped cold, staring in disbelief. Sonic saw her standing just outside the door so he went out to join her.

"This is unbefuckinglievable, who could have done this?" Sonic asked. They were both looking at two smoldering buildings. "You think it was Robotnik?"

"I don't know…"

"Don't worry Sal, we'll find you somewhere else to sleep." Just as Sonic finished a blackened Tails came stumbling toward them.

"I'm sorry Sonic, Auntie Bunnie told me to get rid of the weeds. It was going to take me too long to pull them all, I just thought I'd make it go faster by burning them. When I saw the buildings burning I panicked, so I ran over to get the hose to water it down, but I forgot to turn the water on…" Tails was interrupted.

"Tails, that's the first fucking thing, turn on the shit…" Sonic was saying.

"Shut up Sonic. It's okay Tails, there is an extra room we can stay in," Sally said, moving over to him. They all walked over to the extra room, which had a couch and a beanbag chair.

"Hey Sonic, does this couch pull out into a bed?" Tails asked.

"Yeah, a totally great bed, but that's Sally's bed. You get to sleep over here," Sonic said as he pointed to the beanbag chair.

"That's pretty weak Sonic," Tails pouted.

"Well who's the dumbass that burnt those buildings down? Anyway Sal, if you want, I can sleep here and you can use my bed instead of this," Sonic said.

"That's quite alright Sonic, I think I'll be fine in this 'totally great' bed,"

"I don't know if anyone else has seen that mess yet, but I'll go tell 'em about it. Hopefully we can get a plan so we can start building them back up. Oh, and Tails, don't go blowing anymore shit up."

The next morning the reconstruction was underway. Sonic was sitting in the kitchen looking over the construction plans that Rotor drew up earlier. Tails was sitting next to him, ruffling through a bag of chips. Sonic was doing his best to ignore it, but Tails kept making as much noise as possible.

"Enough with the goddamn chips already. I'm trying to fuckin' study this asshole!" Sonic yelled as he tossed the bag of chips across the room. Tails just gave Sonic a blank look. Sally walked into the room, and shook her head at both of them. She turned and left the room, just as she did Rotor appeared and went straight over to the fridge. He grabbed a bottle of water, and started making his way out. Right as he hit the door he turned and looked over at Sonic.

"You have some chips on the floor here."
