"So what kind of funky powers do you have" Sonic asked sitting down on the grass

"What do you mean" Michael said slightly confused resting on the ground with Tails and Sonic

"You know if you're the power brother of Chaos then you must has some powers, I mean isn't that what it means"

"Oh you mean my ability's… well I can move things with my mind"

"Psychokinesis" Tails spoke up

"Yes, but I also am able to control fire, water and energy but not generate it… I can only control it"

"So what does that mean?" Sonic asked confused

"Basically Sonic if there is a fire or water and electricity in a close area Michael can move it with his mind"

"Wow that's some funky powers" Sonic said

"I also have the ability to make things invisible"

"You do" Tails asked really interested

"Yes but it takes to a lot of concentration" Michael told them both

"So what does that mean" Sonic said confused, again

"It means I use all my power though concentration, the more I use them the more it tires me, but if I had a Chaos Emerald I can tap into the energy and use its power instead of mine"

"So you use the Emerald like a battery to get more power and you can use more of your powers" Tails asked

"Yes, but this amulet" Michael showed both Sonic and Tails "is similar like an Emerald, it's not as powerful but can help power our powers"

"What do you mean by our powers" Tails asked

"I and my brothers each have one, each designed to hold Chaos energy, basically something to tap into in case of emergencies" Michael said leaving the amulet alone.

"So like a portable battery" Sonic said as Michael nodded

"So what powers does your brother have" Tails questioned

"Which brother" Michael

"The one that attacked Sonic" Tails said

"Well he can be unnaturally strong, he can crush any strong metal without any resistance, and he can also speed up his body to a very fast speed" as Michael talked both Sonic and Tails could pick out the anger within his voice

"Sonic can run really fast too" Tails said

"What do you mean" Michael asked Tails

"Well Sonic can run at supersonic speeds" Tails explained

"Really" Michael said very interested "show me Sonic"

"Alright then" Sonic said and as soon as he said it he was off, leaving the two alone in a sonic boom, after a second he returned with another Sonic boom "so what do you think"

"Amazing, I'm guessing you were born with those abilities Sonic" Michael said

"Yeh how did you know"

"Then you're just like us" Michael said

"What do you mean…? I'm a Chaos brother" Sonic said surprised

Michael just laughed "of course not, I mean someone with the power over Chaos energy"

"So can I become a Chaos brother" Sonic asked Michael making him laughs again

"no, the titles of Chaos brothers came to us as we were born from pure Chaos energy, the master Emerald made us, so to speak it's our farther and mother, oh and Sonic all the Chaos brothers are blood related, meaning were all foxes with similar DNA" Michael explained

"Ok so what were the third brother's powers" Tails asked changing the topic

"He, well he had all the knowledge of Chaos, which is all knowledge of the universe" Michael explained

"Wow" Tails said wondering of the possibilities of meeting the third Chaos brother

"Seems like he and Tails would get along perfectly" Sonic laughed

"He could also see into the future, but only if he had several Chaos Emeralds" Michael added

"Really" both Sonic and Tails said at the same time

"So is the future predetermined" Tails asked wondering the results

"Of course not, the future can change just as easily as the wind" Michael told Sonic and Tails

"Really" Tails asked

"Of course Tails, now I must rest I'm tired" Michael said standing up walking to a suitable sleeping place

"But it's not even night yet" Sonic said

"I need to rest; my long time in the Emerald has drained me considerably" Michael said picking a spot to sleep

"Very well then I'm make a fire we will camp here tonight" Tails said getting out a camp supplies, leaving a very restless Sonic,

"Alright you make camp and sleep, I'll go for a last days run" Sonic said as he started to run away

"Fine then Sonic see you later then" Tails said too late as he spotted Sonic in the distance running.

Tails had trouble sleeping after lighting a small camp fire, he tried everything just to get sleep, and every time he tried it seems something was forcing him to keep awake. Finally he just gave up; he sat by the now small fire. After sitting for a bit he suddenly got a massive head ache making him grab his head in pain, then just seconds after it started it stopped, Tails removed his hands from his head and as he looked around wondering what happened he noticed a small white light behind some trees, Tails got up and walked slowly trying not to wake Michael as he got closer to the light it moved further away.

Tails followed the strange light until it lead him to a small dark lake, he could only stand at the side of the lake as the light moved to the centre of the lake. Tails watched curious at what the light was or what it was doing, then slowly it dropped sinking into the dark lake water. Suddenly something jumped out of the water at the same place the light went down into the water, this sudden action made Tails jump back falling down onto the floor.

Tails saw what he could never believe, right in the middle of the lake just floating off the surface of the water an image of a golden fur coloured fox. The fox in the lake was seeing though as Tails could see the trees on the other side of the lake right though the fox. Tails could truly not believe what he was seeing, and then the fox looked directly at Tails, making Tails feel true fear. His first instinct was to run away but for some reason Tails legs would not work.

The ghostly fox suddenly spoke "don't fear us… Miles Prower we mean no harm"

"W…w…who a…are y…y…you?" Tails asked stuttering from fear of the ghostly image

"We are brothers of Chaos, forgotten long ago"

"You're a Chaos brother" Tails said fear now removed from his speech and now replaced with interest and confusion

"We were once called that, we have come to ask you a request" the ghostly fox said to Tails

"Why don't you come to me directly instead of appearing like a ghost?" Tails asked

"We decided it must be so, so that the events to come are not changed"

"I don't understand" Tails told the ghost fox

"We have foreseen the future, the ending of everything; this is why we make a request to you"

"What do you mean by the end of everything?" Tails asked concerned

"The world in flames, war and destruction, an endless cycle for thousands of years, we must prevent it, our survival is necessary"

"Your survival you mean?" Tails asked

"Yes our survival and the survival of everything else, but in order for it to play out correctly you must not tell anyone of this plan or our interference, not even ones close to you" the ghost fox told Tails

"So what do you want me to do?" Tails said understanding the ghost fox

Just as the ghostly fox was about to speak Tails felt a hand touch his shoulder, Tails turned around to be face to face with Sonic, "alright Tails"

Tails looked back at the lake to find the ghost image of the fox gone with no trace "Sonic what are you doing here?"

"Me I was going to ask you that, I came back to camp and you suddenly walked off into the forest" Sonic explained "it looked like you were sleep walking buddy"

"What, sleep walking?" Tails asked

"Yeh, I only followed you to make sure that you did not come to any harm"

"Sonic did you see anything weird when you followed me" Tails asked Sonic

"Well apart from you sleep walking no why"

"No, it's nothing"

"Well anyway let's get some rest back at the camp" Sonic said leading Tails back to the camp.
