Due to my dissatisfaction with certain parts of this story (looks sullenly at the Zora arc), I have chosen to rewrite large sections of it before finishing it. Because the rewrites have become so massive that I am reposting this fic entirely. Eventually, this version will be deleted; however, that won't happen until the rewrites catch up. You can find the revisions on my profile.

A pale telepath is given an unexpected assignment in the middle of the night: to raise a triclops baby in the way of the Crane. If only he was old enough to protect him properly. Rated for safety. Potentially slightly AU.

Based on Sonic 2. For years Tails has been wishing on stars for one thing: a friend. When a certain blue hedgehog arrives on the scene he thinks his wish has come true, but Robotnik isn't far behind and soon Tails' world is plunged into chaos. Please R&R!
