Sonic-X: One-Shot Adventures

Chapter 17: Chris' Childhood Revealed.

Authors Note: Hello everyone. Chapter 17 is here.

Since Knuckles was shown for all the episode, I wanted the other characters for the episode and decided to have Chris explain his childhood to Sonic, Tails, Amy and Cream.

I also found out there might be a new Sonic animated Show coming soon which I'm so hyped for.

This and next episode will be a favourite. This chapter will contain a Tails and Sonic moment. This might be quite sad. So please take care when viewing this chapter.

Anyways, here is chapter 17. I hope you enjoy.

Disclaimer: I don't own Sonic, Sonic X and its characters. SEGA and 4kids TV do.

Chapter 17: Chris' Childhood Revealed.

Chris was sitting in the lounge room alone. He was in a rare stage of sadness, He remembered his childhood before he met Sonic and the rest of his friends.

Chris felt a soothing hand on his shoulder and saw Tails there looking at him in concern. "Chris, you okay? If you want to talk, I'll be right here." Tails asked.

Chris smiled, happy that he had Sonic, Tails and the rest of their friends as his friends. "I'm okay Tails. Just thinking about my childhood before I met you, Sonic and the others." Chris responded.

Tails nodded, "Do You want to talk about it? If not, that's okay. You don't have to if you don't want to." Tails asked.

Chris smiled and nodded. "Sure Tails. Could you bring everyone here please and meet me up in the lounge room." Chris told the young fox.

Tails smiled, nodded and went to go and find the others.

Sonic saw Tails coming in and decided to playfully scare him. As Tails was walking past where Sonic was hiding, Sonic jumped out of his hiding place and lets out a very loud 'BOO!'

Tails completely did not expect that as he flinched and yelped extremely loudly and leapt high in the air. "YIKE!" Tails yiped.

Once Tails landed, his Tails puffed up.

Chris heard the yelp and quickly looked back to see Tails' fur and tails puffed up and figured that Sonic frightened him.

Tails took a few deep breaths to slow down his racing heart was literally beating as fast as Sonic when he ran at the speed of sound. Once Tails calmed down he glared playfully at Sonic. "What the heck Sonic!? Why did you do that for?" Tails yelped. "You scared the heck out of me!"

Sonic grinned sheepishly. "Sorry buddy." Sonic apologised.

Tails' tails began reverting back to normal.

Sonic was about to speak when he saw that everyone was around them. Tails must've yelped so loud that they thought something happened.

"Hey, Sonic? Is Tails okay? We heard him yelp." Chuck asked.

Tails nodded but looked kinda embarrassed by the fact he was so loud that everyone thought he was in danger. "Sorry about that. I was going to get all you for something when Sonic scared the heck out of me and I kinda get very scared easily." Tails replied.

Chris laid his hand on Tails shoulder. "Is this due to your fear of thunder?" Chris asked softly.

Tails nodded sadly. "Yeah..." Tails whispered. He could remember his past right now but didn't want to show he was sad.

Chris wanted to change the subject to avoid making Tails too upset or even cry. "Anyways, Guys, I need to talk to you all about something that happened," Chris explained.

Sonic smiled and laid his hand on Chris' shoulder. "Whatever you need to tell us, we'll listen to you buddy," Sonic assured.

Chris smiled and looked at his grandpa, friends, Ella and Mr Tanaka. "Guys. I want to tell you all about my childhood before I met you all." Chris explained.

"Okay, Chris." Cream said.

Tails laid his hand on Chris' shoulder. "Don't worry Chris. We'll listen carefully." Tails assured, giving it a soft and gentle shake of comfort.

Chris smiled at the young fox. Tails had a heart of gold and would do anything for his friends. What Chris didn't know is this gentle and kind fox had an extremely tragic and traumatic past and was beaten up.

Everyone sat in a circle. Waiting to hear Chris' story.

"When I was growing up, I was shy but happy." Chris explained, "My mum and Dad are rich as they do very good jobs. My dad works big-wig businessman who is the president of a software company and my mum is a very famous movie star. She is clueless too. She has a movie to film around next week and she invited us to come." Chris explained.

Everyone cheered. Tails was a little apprehensive and shy but he will be okay.

"Could you tell us that we'll be coming?" Tails asked.

Chris nodded, smiling. "Will do Tails. I'm sure my mum will be glad to meet you." Chris said.

Chris continued, "Even though Ella, Grandpa and Mr Tanaka take good care of me, I don't see my mum and dad often." Chris told. "This is because they work hard, just to do great things to me like bring me gifts, keep me safe and okay," Chris explained.

Tails' ears drooped at Chris. He really felt bad.

Chris noticed this and tried to reassure Tails. "Hey, It's okay Tails. They still visit me, but not much." Chris explained.

Tails was happy to hear that. "That is good Chris." Tails said.

Chris continued. "When I was around 6 years old, I gained a fear of lightning and thunder, the reason is that my parents are not around to comfort me," Chris explained.

Tails looked shocked. "Chris, I had no idea you had a fear of lightning and thunder. We both have a lot of things in common." Tails spoke.

Chris smiled at this. Tails was right, they really did have a lot of things in common. "You are right Tails, we do," Chris said.

Sonic smiled. "Do you want to keep going, Chris?" Sonic asked.

Chris nodded. "When I turned 8, I went to go and met Danny, Frances and Helen and we were very good friends," Chris explained.

Tails smiled. "I'm happy you have friends, including us." Tails told.

Chris smiled at Tails. "Thanks, Tails." Chris thanked.

Tails hugged Chris, who hugged the young fox back. Tails loved hugs to which Chris was happy for.

Cream wanted to know how Chris handled his fear of thunder. "Hey, Chris?" Cream asked.

Chris smiled. "Yes, Cream?" Chris asked.

Cream smiled. "When did you get over your fear of thunder and lightning?" Cream asked.

Tails smiled as he moved closer. "Yeah, how did you conquer your fear? I'm 8 and I still haven't gotten over it yet." Tails said.

Chris smiled. "When I turned 10 years old, I knew I had to try and not get scared while a thunderstorm approached. It was hard and now, I am not scared of thunder anymore." Chris replied.

Tails smiled. "What happened next?" Tails asked.

Chris smiled. "When I turned 12. My parents threw me a great surprise party and everyone came. In a few days later, I met Sonic and the rest of you guys and I am very happy that this happened." Chris smiled.

Amy smiled at this. "That is great Chris," Amy asked.

"Even though I do hang with my friends, Mr Tanaka, Grandpa and Ella, I still am lonely. I am so glad I met you guys." Chris told his friends.

Tails smiled at this, blushing red in pride. "Thank you, Chris." Tails thanked.

Chris beamed. "Thanks, Tails. You are such a nice kid." Chris said.

Tails smiled sadly. "You are lucky to have parents Chris." Tails said, feeling a little sad, Tails' parents died when he was just 2.

Chuck and Chris were concerned. Didn't Tails have parents? And were they still at Mobius?

Chuck wondered if Tails' parents were back at his home planet. "What do you mean Tails? Are your parents at your home planet still?" Chuck asked.

Tails' ears went completely back in sadness and looked very sad at the mention at his parents, making a very painful and sad noise he makes when he is sad.

Everyone looked at Tails in concern. Amy, Cream and Sonic knew why Tails was sad, but Chris, Chuck, Ella and Mr Tanaka didn't know that the young fox didn't have parents.

"Tails? Are you alright?" Chris asked.

Tails shook his head. "N-No. I don't have parents anymore. They died when I was very young." Tails said, trying not to cry.

Chris instantly gave Tails a big hug in pity. "Oh Tails, I'm sorry. I didn't realise this happened." Chris asked. Suddenly, Chris thought of something. "Is that the true reason why you are scared of thunder of lightning?" Chris asked.

Tails nodded. "Y-yeah." Tails spoke sadly

Chuck felt so bad for Tails. Everyone hugged Tails to comfort him.

Tails smiled and then thought of something. "Hey, why don't we get some ice cream to cheer us up?" Tails suggested.

Chris smiled at this. "That's a great idea Tails," Chris announced.

Chuck smiled too. Tails was not only a genius but he is always there to help his friends. "Good idea Tails," Chuck explained.

Everyone cheered. Everyone ran to the door and hopped in the car and drove to the ice cream shop.

Chapter End.

Authors Note: Well, that was the end of chapter 17 of Sonic-X: One-Shot Adventures.

This chapter was such a great chapter to write. I wanted to Chris to tell when he was growing up and i thought this chapter was the perfect chapter to do it.

I also wanted Tails to explain to Everyone that his parents passed in the ending of this chapter.

Anyways, the next chapter is 18. Chapter 18 will be adapting from the Dam Scam. Also, it will be the chapter that Tails will cry for the very first time.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I will see you in chapter 18.

See you then.

Bye for now.
