Sonic shot up from his bed panting. He looked around the room before he took a deep breath. He looked at the clock on his nightstand which read 2:30 AM.

He sighed to himself. He had been having dreams about them for a few days. At first it was good memories, than yesterday it started becoming that tragic night when everything he loved was taken away.

He lay back down and stared at the ceiling. He didn't want to go back to sleep, if he did than that memory might come up again.

Sonic was known to be afraid of water everyone knew it, but what they didn't know was that he was also afraid of fire. Even the tiniest flame scares him.

He tries not to show his fear of fire around Tails because he didn't want him to worry. Now you may be wondering why Sonic is afraid of fire? Well you see when Sonic was 2 years old his parents died in a fire.

Eggman attacked Sonic's hometown in the middle of the night, and the fire was started by an Eggman robot. He could remember that night with full details as to what happened.

Flashback

A two year old Sonic was sleeping in his room curled up in a little ball. His parents were downstairs cleaning up from the mess Sonic accidentally made. It wasn't to long ago that Sonic discovered he had super speed and being only two he didn't know how to control it.

As they finished cleaning their was a explosion from a far distance. Both of Sonic's parents ran to the window by the front door to see a large ship approaching. They could see tiny specks coming from the ships down toward the village.

When the things that came from the ship came closer they could see that they were robots. They looked like humans, but had a large canon on their arms. They landed and started firing laser beams at every house they came across.

They were coming closer to where Sonic and his parents lived. The mother whose name was Bernadette turned to her husband with a panicked look.

"Jules, we have to get Sonic out of here and into safety." Bernadette said to her husband.

Jules nodded his head and they both ran upstairs into Sonic's room. When they got into Sonic's room he was awake and was standing at the window looking out to see the robots attacking.

"Sonic!" his mother yelled bursting into the room.

Sonic looked at his parents and pointed out the window. "Mommy, why are those weird guys attacking our village?" he asked them.

Jules shook his head. "Never mind that son we have to leave!"

Just than a robot came from the sky and landed in front of their house. All three of them saw it and Sonic became scared. This robot had a flamethrower for a hand and it activated it torching the house setting it on fire.

Sonic began to cry as his mother picked him up and ran out of his room with Jules following behind. The fire was spreading fast as Sonic's parents ran downstairs and headed for the front door.

However before the could make it the ceiling began to crumble and a large chunk was falling right toward them. Both parents saw this and knew they couldn't get out in time.

Without thinking Bernadette hugged Sonic and threw him out the window that was opened before the attack. As soon as Bernadette threw Sonic out the window the large chunk fell on top of his parents trapping them underneath it.

When Sonic landed on the ground he looked up and was in tears as he saw that his parents weren't with him.

He started to run back into the house to get his parents when the house collapsed on itself making Sonic screech to a halt.

Sonic fell to his knees as the fire was still there even when it crumpled. He stared at the house for hours hoping that his parents would come out soon. With him being only two, he didn't understand the logic of death.

Finally after 6 hours the fire faded away. Sonic slowly started moving toward the house and started moving the debris around to find his parents.(He was pretty strong for a 2 year old)

After about 5 minutes of looking he saw blueish-black fur sticking out from a debris. Sonic stared at the fur before he slowly pushed the debris away and was met with a horrible sight that no 2 year old should see.(This story is rated K+, so if I were to describe the scene than I would have to make it T)

End flashback

Sonic felt his heart sink when he remembered that memory. He was so caught up in his thoughts that he didn't hear Tails walk in and hear his voice.

"SONIC!" Tails yelled.

Sonic shook his head to see his younger brother standing in front of his bed with a worried look on his face. He than looked at the time and saw that it was 8:00 AM. Was he really caught up in his memories that he didn't realize that much time passed?

Sonic tried his best to smile at Tails. "Hey little bro, what's up?"

Tails raised an eyebrow. "Sonic, I've been calling you for over an hour now that breakfast was ready and when you didn't respond I came in and you were staring at nothing, not responding to me."

Sonic sighed. "Sorry I was just thinking." he said getting up from his bed and slowly walked to the kitchen.

Tails began to get worried. For the past few days Sonic hadn't been himself. He wouldn't go for a run with him, he wouldn't much and he wouldn't even fight Eggman. He knew that tonight he was going to talk to him to get his real big brother back.

Later that night

Sonic was slowly heading toward his room when he felt a hand on his shoulder preventing himself from leaving. Sonic looked at Tails with downcast eyes.

"Sonic, please tell me what's wrong. You haven't been yourself for a few days and I'm worried."

Sonic stared at him before he fell to his knees crying. All of his emotions inside finally snapped and he letting it all loose.

Tails was shocked at seeing this. Never in his life had he seen Sonic cry like this. He than sat down and hugged Sonic finding himself starting to cry.

"I-I'm sorry Tails, for worrying you so much." Sonic said still crying.

"Can you tell me what happened?" Tails asked.

Sonic than explained what happened to his parents and how lonely he had been since that day. "And that's why I was so happy when I found you." Sonic said.

Tails smiled. "Sonic, it's okay to let it all out. No matter what happens I'll always be there for you."

Sonic couldn't help but to smile knowing that he is not alone in this world and that his little brother would be with him always.

A/N: This was a lot longer than I planned it to be. I hope you like it PhantomGurl12344!
