Hello! This is the second chapter of my personal favourite story to write, Fleetway Returns! Enjoy!
DISCLAIMER: Look at the first one.
Two weeks after the first nightmare...
It was late in the morning. Miles 'Tails' Prower put his screwdriver back in his toolbox and flew down to the ground using his nickname's two namesakes. He smiled at his plane, the Tornado. "Done! The Tornado can go even faster now!" He walked out of his workshop and went into the kitchen. "Hey Sonic, come see..." He called, but stopped when he saw his brother wasn't there. "That's odd," He told himself, "Sonic never sleeps late. He's always in the kitchen, waiting for breakfast." The fox walked around the house, calling Sonic's name. He didn't get a reply. He was about to give up when he heard a quiet moan come from the hero's room. Curiously, Tails poked his head round the door. He saw Sonic in his bed, sleeping. However, the covers were on the floor, Sonic was tossing and turning, and was muttering. Tails walked slowly towards his sibling, careful not to wake him. "S-Sonic...?"
"No...Stay there...Don't come back..."
Tails stopped dead, fear in his blue eyes. He rushed over to Sonic, shaking his shoulder gently. "Sonic, Sonic, wake up! You're having a nightmare!"
On Angel Island...
Knuckles the Echidna sat in front of the Master Emerald, listening for any intruders, and 'Knuckleduster'.
"The seal is breaking..."
Knuckles paused the music and looked around. "Who are you? Where are you?" He turned around to the giant gem behind him. In the reflection was a dark figure. He had quills sticking upwards, ripped shoes, and had bright red stripes in his eyes. Knuckles stared at the figure. "I know that voice...It's Fleetway."
Back with Sonic and Tails...
Sonic slowly opened his eyes and sat up. He turned to Tails. His little brother's eyes were full of worry and tears. "Sonic, are you OK?" The kit asked. Sonic nodded. "Don't worry Tails, I'm-" He suddenly got a terrible headache and raised his hand automatically to his forehead. Tails immediately put his arm round Sonic. "Do you need something to eat Sonic?" Sonic thught about it. "Eh, I guess I'm hungry. Besides, it's just a small headache. It'll go on its own." Tails smiled, relieved that the hedgehog was alright. He walked out of the room and into the kitchen, Sonic following. The hero sat at the table and looked toward the fox. "So, what's the menu today Tails?" Tails put a plate down in front of Sonic. "Pancakes and syrup." He replied. Sonic licked his lips aand began to eat. Tails chuckled at his brother and also begam to chow down. Once they both finished, Tails cleaned the plates. "Hey Sonic, do you want to check out the changes I made to the Tornado? It's super fast now!" Sonic grinned. "You and your machines! Come on then." He got up and left, Tails at his heels. As the hero was walking, he heard a voice.
"Oh Sonic...It's breaking...I'm coming..."
Sonic spun round to Tails. "You say something Tails?" Tails shook his head. "No, and I didn't hear anything either."
"Huh," was Sonic's reply before turning to walk again. But something as on his mind.
I could've sworn there was a voice. And...it sounded familiar somehow. Plus when I heard it my quills bristled up a bit, like they did when HE was around.
...Heh, I shouldn't worry. Besides, what's the worst that could happen?
Sonic was going to find out soon enough.
Second chappie done! Remember to R+R! Catch ya later!
