Tails and Rosemary OneSHOT
Chapter2: Nightly Travels
14.2.2011 Deathy: Okay, here's chapter 2! I hope you guys like this. I am watching Thunderscats while writing this, so sorry for weird references. I can't control myself sometimes. Thank you andromeda0909 for reviewing! Such a nice person. I'll try to keep funny lessons in the chapters just for you.
DISCLAIMER: One, Two buckle you shoe. Three, Four, better lock the door, Five, Six pickup sticks, Seven, Eight, better stay up late, Nine, Ten, Do it all again.
Tails jotted down several things that his mom might like or need, but none of them seemed to be any good. Tails was a great pilot. He could take his mom for a plane ride where ever she wanted, but she wasn't too keen on flying. Rosemary preferred to keep her feet on the ground. In fact Tails couldn't think of a thing. He could try to fix the toaster. It's hasn't worked right in two months. Of course, that was after Tails had taken it apart to see how it worked and tried to put it back together. Obviously, he didn't put it back together correctly. Rosemary nearly had a heart attack when the toaster started sparking and leaping off the table as if it was doing a happy dance. No, fixing the toaster would be a bad idea, for his mom, and himself.
Tails then rolled over and was about to get out of bed for a well deserved walk to clear his head when he noticed that Shadow was asleep in his floor right beside his bedside. Tails sigh and shook his head. He was holding the Nintendo (Super Nintendo) remote control as if it was a teddy bear. Manic was asleep beside him, and Sonic was on his other side. Sonic cradled the SEGA (Genesis) remote control in his hands. Tails thought for a moment as to why they were holding remotes. He then remembered that Shadow said he thought Super Mario was a better game than Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic took offense to this and proceeded to try to destroy the Super Nintendo controller that Shadow held. And Shadow retaliated by beating Sonic with it. The two then proceeded to try to bludgeon each other with the remotes. Sonic with Sega and Shadow with Nintendo. Tails thought it was kind of funny, but Manic wasn't going to allow it.
Shadow, while detesting Sonic, really admired his brother, Manic. He even took up the habit of calling Manic, 'Brother Manic', after Manic gave him a noogie saying, "You're fun to hang out with. Why don't I adopt you as my brother?" He then insulted Sonic himself. Manic made that joke often with Shadow even before he had amnesia, and this time, Shadow joined along in the joke.
"Though," Tails thought to himself, "It'll be really funny if Manic actually lied to Shadow and told him he was his actual brother and that Bernie was his mom. This way Shadow would get to enjoy the holiday, and even being semi-normal until he gets over the amnesia." Tails laughed to himself at the thought of Sonic having to treat Shadow as his brother and not a rival. "He'll make Shadow so mad that he'll probably remember who he is in no time." He thought to himself. He flew out of bed and over the sleeping bodies on his floor to the door. He slowly opened the door and flew out and closed it silently. He went to the bathroom still pondering about what to get his mom for Mother's Day.
As he washed his hands and left the bathroom, he bumped into his dad, who glanced at him knowingly. "What's got you up this late at night, son?" He asked with a slight smile.
"Oh, nature's calling, I guess." Tails answered in a near whisper. Some of the guys were such light sleepers that they would wake up the sound of a light breeze.
"You forgot about it, didn't you?" Amadeus mused.
"Forgot what?" Tails asked sounding curious.
"Mother's Day." Amadeus stated. "You forgot about it, didn't you?"
Tails nodded. "How'd you know?"
"I heard." He said pointing to the air vents. "Daddy's good at knowing everything that discussed in this house."
Tails put two and two together. "You're a sneaking, devious, old man, dad." Tails stated sharply.
"That may be true." Amadeus said. "But I'm still your father, young man, so be respectful."
Tails smiled devilishly. "Sure, I respect you dad. It's just that you need to start teaching me that. It could come in handy." Tails was contemplating ways to get back at Espio and Vector for busting a whole through his bed room wall. "Aw. Sweet revenge." Tails thought. He could almost taste it.
"I don't think I like that evil look in your eyes." Amadeus said softly. "But sure, I'll teach you some of my sneaky spying tricks after Mother's Day."
"Okay!" Tails said happily. "Oh, do you know what mom likes?"
"Of course. Rosemary likes sweet things. She has a major sweet tooth, just like you." Amadeus noted. "Her favorite treat is homemade strawberry cheesecake. My mother used to make it all the time. In fact, that's how I met her. She came over wanting cheesecake." He sounded a bit annoyed.
Tails chuckled. "So Grandma Prower hooked you up with mom." Amadeus gave his son a glare. "Did grandma give you the recipe?" Tails asked. "That would be perfect." Tails thought. "I'll make mom her favorite treat – a homemade strawberry cheesecake. Of course, some of it will be for me too."
"I think she put it in an old recipe book, but we don't have it here." His dad stated simply. "I believe Merlin has it somewhere in all those books of his."
"Okay, I'll go visit him tomorrow." Tails stated.
"Very well." Amadeus said walking back to his own room. "Now go get some sleep, young man." His advice sounded like an order.
Tails nodded and went to back to sleep. "Night dad." He said softly.
Amadeus entered his room to find his wife sitting up in bed reading. There was also a big ol' bowl on the night stand. It contained ice cream a half hour ago.
"Why is he up and wondering the house this time?" She asked not looking up from her book.
"He forgot something very important and wasn't sure what to do." Amadeus stated.
"If it's Mother's Day, I'm not surprised. Tails isn't used to celebrating it, so he'll forget it more often. He gets his forgetfulness from you. Remember? You always forgot Mother's Day. Even when it fell on our anniversary!" Rosemary laughed.
"Hardy har-har." Amadeus mocked a laugh. "It's not my fault. You knew I was forgetful when you married me. Dates are not my thing. You should have let me get every important date tattooed to my arm so I would see them every day!" Amadeus stated. "And also the note that Ian St. John is almost always too drunk to find anything but alcohol and that Jules drives like a mad man. Scariest day of my life! Ian giving that crazy fool directions and we're swerving all over the road. Plus the fact that Jules was speeding! I nearly died upon getting to the church!"
Rosemary bursted out laughing. "Oh, I remember that! Jules drove through the church doors all the way down the aisle! King Max screamed liked a girl thinking that he was going to run him over. Armand picked up Antoine up over his shoulders screaming something in French. I think the funniest thing was when I heard Ian screaming, 'We're not t'ere yet you bloke! You got to take a anot'er right t'en a left before we get to t'e church! 'Urry up Jules! We got to get Amadeus 'ere to sell his man 'ood away'." The two foxes laughed at remembering the hectic day of their wedding.
21.3.2011 Deathy: Okay, here's chapter 2. Tails contemplates on what to get his mom for Mother's Day. And we get to hear my version of how well Rosemary and Amadeus wedding day went. If you don't know, Ian St. John is Geoffrey St. John's dad. (Read Archie Comics). Ian is British, so I dropped most of the Hs from his speech. Jules is Sonic's and Manic's dad. It seems that they got their love for speed from him. I've seen many a joke of Manic's crazy hectic driving. I for one enjoyed writing this. Please Read & Review.
P.S. does anyone remember the actual version of 'One two buckle my shoe'?
