Tails to Blaze

"Hi, Blaze. It's Miles Prower. You know, 'Tails'.

I don't know if we'll ever meet again, so I recorded this. I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to say, but... we'll see how it goes.

When we first met, I would never have believed we would become friends, especially considering you and Sonic fought each other.

Thankfully, you realised that you couldn't do everything by yourself and allowed us to help you.

We hadn't known each other for very long, but after you and Sonic defeated the Eggmen, and you had to leave... I couldn't help but feel sad. Not just because you were – are – a good person, but I also felt sorry for Cream. But Sonic... hah, well, you know him. He told Cream how good a friend she had been to you, that you'd never forget her, and that you promised you would meet again. Well, it took ten years, but you kept that promise!

If Sonic were here, he'd say... hmmm... come to think of it, he'd not say much. He always hated long goodbyes. He'd probably just say 'See ya around!' and little else.

...This is probably the last time we'll see each other. I'm not big on speeches, so I'll just say this – you were always a great friend. Thanks for being there for us. I won't forget you.

And remember... it's okay to let your emotions go. Don't keep them bottled up forever.

Well, that's all I have to say. Take care of yourself and keep an eye on Marine.

Goodbye, Blaze."

Tails to Marine

"Marine, hi! It's Miles Prower – Tails. Yeah, that's right, 'Miles' is my real name. Amy's pretty much the only one who calls me that, and it's only when she's really upset with me.

But listen, this is probably the last time we'll meet. I hope it's not, but... I'm not going to sugar-coat it – I think there's almost no chance of our paths crossing again. I'm sorry.

The few days you've been here have been great. Seeing you two again was just incredible.

I remember when we first met. Me and Sonic had washed up on... Seagull Beach, was it? I think so. Sorry if I got it wrong. Anyway, yeah... the first thing you did when we met was poke Sonic with a stick. Ha ha ha. You're quirky, I'll give you that. And that accent of yours – I love it. You probably don't hear it, but to me, it's there. I bet to you, though, I've got an accent. I dunno.

...Boy, ten years since we last met and already you're gone. Oh, the places I could've taken you guys. Or... girls.

I'll miss you. I really will. You keep Blaze company, okay?

Goodbye, Marine."

Marine to Tails

"Hey, mate.

...Hmmm... now what the hell do oi say?

Uhhh... well... you're a ripper bloke, Tails. For real. Oi'm glad oi coulda seen ya again and have a chance ta met yer friends, Amy and Cream. Noice people, yeah. Oi just wish oi coulda seen Sonic one last toime. It's koinda weird not seein' him next ta you. You two were inseparable from what oi remember. Sorry 'e's gone.

Um... ya got a noice house, noice car, noice flyin' ship... and, ah...

Huh. Oi've run out of things ta say.

Well, oi hope you can have something done about your eye. The scar's cool, though.

And... that's... pretty much it. Yeah.

See ya, Tails. Oi hope..."

Cream to Blaze

"Blaze, it's Cream.

I hope you're doing okay. I'm not doing so well, as you... you can probably tell from my voice. I don't want to say goodbye, but... I know you have to go back.

You're my best friend... and I wish I could go with you, but that... I can't...

I'm glad I got to see you again, though. And your friend Marine is really nice. It's too bad you couldn't have met Jack.

You'll always be in my heart, Blaze. I'm sorry this was so short. I don't know what else to say. I hope we'll meet again.

Don't forget me.

Goodbye..."

Blaze to Tails

"Hello, my friend. I hope you are well.

Obviously, by the time you listen to this, I'll be back home. Don't be sad. We're still friends, we always will be. Sorry, I know that sounds really corny, but it's true.

Like I said to Cream, if I could stay longer, I would. To tell you the truth, if I could stop being royalty and the guardian of the Sol Emeralds and leave it to someone else, I would do it in a heartbeat.

I am very glad I met you and Sonic. You two have always been on my mind and you have both taught me so much. I just wish I could repay you, somehow. All I can give is my thanks and condolences.

Your world is beautiful, especially Green Hill Zone. Cream told me she grew up there; she's very lucky. And fortunate... to have friends like you.

Thank you for giving me and Marine a place to stay when we got here.

Tell Amy I'm glad she took care of you after Sonic... after he was gone. She's done very well from what I've seen.

Thank you, Tails.

Farewell."

Blaze to Cream

"Cream, it's Blaze.

I'm... not sure what to say. Words can't express how sorry I am to leave you. You're my first and best friend and you have to be strong, okay? You have friends who need you more than you think. Even they may not know it.

Don't worry about me. I'll be fine. As long as you're safe and happy, that's all I could ask for. I hope you get whatever you wish for and that you have a long and fruitful life.

Jack is lucky to have you. From what you've told me, he seems like a fine young man. I wish the best for both of you.

Thank you for giving me a place to stay while I was here. I appreciate it. Give your mother my best and my thanks. And I'm sure you do this anyway, but... always respect, honour and love her. Do your best to make her proud of you.

I love you, my friend. Don't cry. We may meet again someday.

Best of luck in all you do.

Goodbye, Cream."

Well, that's it. Finally. Next, I'll be writing the prequels to this, elaborating on the things touched upon in this fic.

Thanks to everyone who read and commented!
