Tails was sitting, hunched over his computer. "Info on Amy Rose Prower," He muttered, typing his words into a search engine. As he waited for his page to load, he heard his doorbell ring. He quickly minimized the page and opened up Word and pretended to be writing.
"Come in!" Tails yelled, typing up a storm. Sonic rushed in the door. "Hey, little bro!" Sonic yelled, coming in the door. The phrase only meant that Tails was younger than Sonic was, but Tails was starting to get a bit annoyed by it because he was now 5"6, much taller than Sonic at 4"3. "So, whatcha typing?" Sonic asked, looking over Tails' shoulder.
"Oh, nothing, just and equation..." Sweat beaded up on Tails' face, while he covered the computer screen with his arms wide apart and his legs like a bridge over the Mississippi River; As wide as they were long.
"C'mon, lemme see! I won't tell anyone." Sonic looked behind Tails and caught a glimpse of what he was looking up. "Amy Rose Prower, huh?" Sonic said teasingly. "Gonna get married and wanna get to know her more?" "Em, yeah..." Tails said. He had promised Amy he would never reveal that they were brother and sister. "So, did you need me to fetch you lunch?" Sonic asked.
"Sure," Tails said. "Can you pick me up a Plain Burger at the chip stand by the mall? Just lettuce and ketchup, please..." "Your wish is my burnt chili dogs." Sonic said, bowing awkwardly and stepping out the door, slamming it after him. "I hate it when he does that..." Tails growled. Suddenly, he remembered his windows. He saved and printed his document (it turned out it had some pretty funny stuff on it) and opened up his Amy window.
The search engine had found one article: "The Truth: Amy Rose Prower". He saw the page preview, and it said: Other links Sonic Acorn Miles Prower Amy Rose Prower ... Tails clicked on the link. It had a full page of photographs, text, and art. The one picture that stood out most was a painting of The Freedom Fighters that Amy had painted under slavery. Tails clicked the link. A voice boomed out of his speakers, "This is the future." Tails ignored the voice and looked at the picture.
Bunnie was a full robot, no rabbit left but her outline. Antoine stood back-to-back with her, his hair short but real and no wig. Sally had a black battle suit on, and she was face to face with Sonic. Sonic was wearing a full solders uniform: Shiny, polished boots, a red camouflage suit, a red combat helmet and a frown on his face. Rotor was standing normally, but he had a mechanical arm. Knuckles was standing in Tails' spot, with a blue uniform on and a monocle.
"But what about me???" Tails whined, staring at the spot he would have been in. He was just closing the window as Sonic came in. "Hey, Lil' bro!!!" He said, walking in the door. Tails cringed and took the burger from Sonic. "Yo... Hey, Sonic, have you been thinking of replacing me in the Freedom Fighters? I mean, with Knuckles?" Sonic looked at Tails with a smile on his face.
"You know I'd never do that!" Sonic said, nudging him with his elbow. "Yeah, I guess you're right. Sorry about that." Tails said, sighing. However, just as he was reassuring himself that Amy was just kidding with the picture, four words came back to his head, stinging like a bee sting. "This is the future."
