Final Chapter!
Tears began to form in the young fox's eyes, "Please don't, we'll find another way to stop it." he pleaded, "Tails i'm sorry, but there's no other way to stop it." Cosmo told him while preparing to shatter her amulet. "But you can't. There's always another way." he was on the verge of crying by now, he looked out the cockpit window and saw his friends loading the Sonic Driver with Sonic and Shadow in their super forms and Eggman had attached his ship to the Blue Typhoon, it was dejavu.
'If I can stall her long enough or change her mind, they'll be able to destroy the planetoid without a sacrifice!' Tails thought in exitement, the fox pulled a switch on the side and the plane shot forewards away from the planetoid. "Tails what are you doing!?" Cosmo demanded, but he put the plane on autopilot and turned to face her, "Making sure you can't sacrifice yourself, Sonic and Shadow are going to destroy the planetoid and-" "Tails that planetoid is going to destroy the universe if I don't follow my destiny." Cosmo interrupted him harshley, it hurt him greatly to hear her talk to him like that. "Cosmo i'm certain they'll handle it fine."
She shook her head in defiance, "I have to do this Tails, now please, take me back there." "No, Nobody is meant to die! Especially you!" he was practically shouting and by now the tears were streaming from his eyes, Cosmo felt bad for making him cry and gave him a gentle hug. "I really am sorry Tails, but this is how it's meant to be."Tails shook his head once more, refusing to accept what seemed to be true at that time, "Cosmo I just can't loose you. You mean the world to me." he realized too late at what he'd said but didn't care. "You mean that much to me as well Tails." she replied softly.
But they were unaware that they were being watched by someone on a nearby asteroid, "Hm..." was all the figure said as he watched Tails and Cosmo's conversation, possibly their last conversation ever. "Fire!" the Sonic Driver fired Sonic and Shadow at the planetoid, only for it's blast to rebound and destroy the cannon with the planetoid being unaffected. "Now what do we do!?" Sonic demanded, only to recieve a shrug from everyone on the Blue Typhoon in response.
"Tails I have to now befroe it explodes." Cosmo continued to plead for him to open the cockpit and allow her to follow her 'destiny' but the young kitsune simply refused, "Cosmo, I can't let you do this. You don't know what it would do to me if you died because I never told you that I-" he began, but cut himself off immediatly before he said the last part of his sentence that would have, if finished, revealed his most important secret. "You what Tails?" he couldn't think of any way out of the situation he'd just brought upon himself, he sighed and said, "Cosmo, you remember when we were at the party and I said something was beautiful?" she recalled the moment, and how he had been startled by something made her giggle a little bit, but she nodded nonetheless. "You thought that I said the stars were beautiful, that's not what I meant." this confused her greatly, "Then what did you call beautiful? I can't remember seeing anything besides the stars at the time."
"Cosmo, I said that you were beautiful." he looked away due to his shy nature, but Cosmo suprised him by what she did next, "Well thank you, I must admit that...well...you're pretty handsome yourself." "You mean that you..." the startled fox began to say, but she nodded as they somehow knew in their hearts that they were thinking the samw thing.
"Well...I guess he deserves his frie-NO! What am I think-GAH!" the figure clutched his head and kneeled down on the asteroid, the asteroid floated into the light to reveal a black armored, brown haired figure that was all too familiar. "NO! I can't think like that, if I can't have anyone to trust then neither can he-AH!" he screamed loudly and let go of his head before standing back up and puling out a large, curved blade sword that was as black as his armor. "Time to redeem myself for my past actions." in a dark blur of motion he charged at the planetoid faster than Sonic in his super form, he raised the sword when he got close enough and brought it down, causing the planetoid to explode like it was going to. "Goodbye my foes." a dark barrier surrounded tha figure along with the explosion and after about ten seconds, there was nothing there.
"Was that Mark!?" Eggman screamed, he'd never seen the man in action and had been shocked by his course of action, "It was...but he tried to kill all of us. Why did he change his mind and save us instead?" Amy stated to the fat scientist, but in a flash of light a body reappeared in the region of space. Tails and Cosmo had seen the explosion and were holding each other in a tight hug, but had noticed the body, "We should probbably see who that is." they took the X Tornado over to the body and nudged it back to the Blue Typhoon.
Everyone stared in shock at who it was, the body was in black armor that was extremely damaged and could probbably never be used again, and although he was in extremely bad shape, anyone would recognize the figure as the most powerful one in the universe, Mark. He opend his good eye and it was revealed to no longer be hazel in color, but rather a combination of Tails and Cosmo's eye colors instead. The gem in his chest also had changed, instead of blood red it was now a combination of Tails' fur color and the color of Cosmo's hair, "What's up?" he sat up and stood above the rest of the group, "Why did you save us? Tell me now or i'll beat the answer out of you!" Amy rose definately had a temper, and even Mark would be wise to fear it. "I realized my mistakes and wanted to redeem myself, but there's only one thing that needs to happen now." everyone had confused looks on their faces, "Just to speed things up a little." he said while shoving Tails into Cosmo, the force of impact made their faces less than half an inch apart and Mark announced, "You get the message." while winking at tyhem with his one good eye.
Tails and Cosmo looked lovingly at each other before sharing their first, official kiss while everyone in the hangar gave an audible 'Awww' at the two. Now with their entire lives to spend together, Tails and Cosmo separated and said in unison, "I love you."
The End...NOT!
