Book 1,
Chapter 2,
The Shunning
Sonic ran to his house, and his mother was calling him.
"Maurice!" Sonic's mother called, "Time for dinner!" "Mom, don't call me that!" Sonic called back. "My name is Sonic, S-O-N-I-C." "Don't take that tone of voice with ME young man! Now get down here right now!" "Yes, Mom." Sonic walked down the stairs, and walked into the kitchen. He sat down at the square table, and his mother told him to eat. He ate his roast beef without a word, until he felt a rustling in his pocket...
Tails, still in the pocket, smelled the roast beef. He started to poke out his head. When Sonic noticed him, he shoved him back in the pocket. Tails yelped as he was pushed into it. "What was that?" Asked Sonic's mother. Sonic sweatdropped. "N-Nothing, nothing..." Tails poked his head out again, and Sonic shoved him back in, he made a louder yelp. "Maurice, are you hiding something from me?" Sonic's sweatdrop inflated and his eyes widened. "No..." Tails poked his head out once more, with Sonic shoving him back in again. He let out a very loud yelp. "Alright, Maurice, You're definitely hiding something from me. Tell me right now, or you're grounded.
Grounded... Sonic always feared the word. He didn't want to get grounded, so he pulled Tails out of his pocket, and placed him on the table. "What is that?" She asked. Sonic lifted up his hand, revealing a small, two-tailed fox. "Maurice, It has two tails! It's a mutated freak of nature! You can't keep it!" Tails hung his head and his ears drooped, his tails were on the ground behind him. Sonic narrowed his eyes. "Hey, you can't talk to him like that! He's just a child, He can't help it! And what's wrong with having two tails anyway!?"
Angry tears were streaming from the little hedgehog's eyes, as the kitsune was also crying. "It's still a two-tailed freak! Foxes are NOT born with two tails!" "Why you... I'm going upstairs!" "Fine, You're GROUNDED!" "Urgh..." Sonic snatched Tails, and dashed upstairs.
As he was running upstairs, he got angrier and angrier at his mother. He ran inside his room and slammed the door so hard, it shook the house and the houses around it. He locked it, and set Tails on the carpet. He walked over to his dresser. "GRAAAAAH!!"Sonic screeched as he slammed his fists on it over and over again. He looked over to where Tails was, and the tiny kitsune was kneading the carpet, before he curled up into a ball on it, and fell asleep. The sight of Tails sleeping like that seemed to calm him down, so he walked over to Tails with fatherly eyes. He knelt down and stroked Tails, before he picked him up and whispered, "Cmon little buddy, we're running away."
Heh heh heh... I LOVE making cliffhangers, because I'm pretty damn good at it.
