A/N: Warning, this story will be heavily on bullying. So, be warned. And my take on this story is something that I come up with after watching bullying moments on Anime.
Sky Central, Cafeteria
03/20/2003
In the cafeteria, Sonic is eating Chili Dogs with Tails, Sticks, Sally, Bunnie, and Antoine at the table, "You know, Sugah, you've been ranking up pretty fast lately."
Sonic sweatdrops, "Well, yesterday I had done a lot of the missions solo very quickly." "True, and I'm still the Soldier Rank!" Sticks is still mad that she's still in the same rank for two days.
"Well, I could bring you along for a group mission. And you don't need to be in the same rank." Sticks got the attention, "Really?!" Sonic nodded, and Sticks was happy for it, "By the way, are you guys in the ranking?" Tails asked Antoine, Sally, and Bunnie.
"I'm not in the ranking since I'm the captain." Sally said, "I'm in ah Warrior Rank, and Antoine here is in Knight Rank." "I've been wondering, does Knight Rank still get more points?" "Wellz, you can get more pointz to increase the rank of the Knight, and I'm in first place with 400 points."
Sticks, Tails, and Sonic nodded for understanding, "Anyway, we should get going." Sally said, "Right, come on, Sticks, we had a mission to do." Sticks quickly followed Sonic, "All right, let's see what mission they had for us!"
"You're heading back to the Workshop?" Tails nodded, "I'm going create something that will be helpful for a battle." "All right, be careful." Tails quickly head to the Workshop.
Sky Central, Workshop
03/20/2003
Tails head to his workstation, creating a new invention, "Now, let's see what I can come up with." He begins drawing the blueprint for his idea.
In another workstation, two girl inventors are jealous of Tails' inventions, "I can't believe that rookie makes a data to the real world." "Agree, he shouldn't be this smart at that age." One of them got an idea, "I have an idea." She interested.
Tails finish the blueprint, "Oh, what a nice blueprint." He turned to see one female koala Mobian wearing a magenta jacket, black and magenta shoes, and tech gloves. And one female squirrel Mobian wearing a violet hoodie, white and violet boots, and dark violet fingerless gloves.
"Who are you two?" Tails asked, "I'm Daisy, and this is my friend Key." The squirrel Mobian introduces herself and her koala friend, "Nice to meet you. I'm Tails."
"Nice to meet you too." She shakes her hand with Tails. She tried to crush his hand, but Tails didn't feel a thing, "Maybe we should let it go." "Oh, right."
She let it go, confused on how Tails managed to hold it, "Do you two want to talk with something?" "I'm curious about those two tails." He knows about it, "I was born with these Tails, and I always picked on. But I meet a friend of mine that helps me to move on with it."
They nodded, "All right, we'll leave. Thank you for the conversation." Tails nodded, "Anytime." They left his workstation. He turned back and saw his blueprint gone.
"You got it?" She showed her, "Nice." She turned and noticed something, "Wait." They see that Tails has another copy of the blueprint they're holding, "Great, he got another one." "What do we do now?" She smiled, "I have a backup plan."
They leave Tails alone, letting him finish his project.
Sky Central, Workshop
03/21/2003
Nicole helps Tails carry boxes of supplies, "Thanks for lending a hand, Nicole." Nicole smiled, "Anytime, Tails. After all, I owe you for my body in the real world." "Yeah."
They head to Tails' workstation and find that the table had been graffiti, "What in the Mobius?!" Nicole saw the writing of 'Two-Tailed Freak!' 'You aren't einstein!' 'You're just a knockoff of a real genius.' and many more insults writing all over it.
She saw Tails looked at the writing, "Tails, are you all right?" The girls chuckled at Tails' depression by their station, "You don't have to hold back-" "I'm fine." Tails wiped his eyes, "I-I can clean it myself." He leaves to get a bucket of water soap to clean up the table.
Nicole wanted to have a conversation with Sonic after inventing with Tails.
Sky Central, Mission Command
03/21/2003
"Congratulations, you've both got 8 Points." Sticks and Sonic high-fived for the points, "Another mission?" "Yeah!" "Sonic."
They turned to see Nicole, "Oh, Nicole, what is it?" "We need to talk." Sticks raised her hand, "Can I come along?" "Yeah, you can come."
Sky Central, Hallway
03/21/2003
They at the hallway for conversation, "So, what do you want to talk about?" "It's about Tails." They were confused, "Why are we talking about him?"
Nicole sighed, "This morning, he was being bullied by writing on the table." "And what of the writing?" Nicole showed them the image, shocking Sonic and Sticks to the core.
"Who even did this?! Did they even know that he's eight years old?!" Sonic had enough of this bullying, "Sonic, did you know about this?" "Yeah, before I met Tails, he was being bullied by some other kids that are close to his age."
They were surprised, "They always make fun out of him by his two tails. When I saw that happen, I scared those bullies away from him. I didn't think he's getting bullied again."
Sticks stomp the floor, "We need to find out who did this to him." Nicole thinks of a solution, "I have an idea." Sonic and Sticks are listening to Nicole's plan.
Sky Central, Workshop
03/21/2003
Three girls (a female White Cat Mobian wearing a blue vest, grey shirt, black pants, mechanic gloves, yellow boots, and goggles.) are sneaking around the Workshop for the next plan, "Now to take that plan to the next level." "Yes! Do it, Meline!" "A-All right." They found Tails' Workshop and began smashing it until the lights turned on.
They turned to see Sally, Sonic, Nicole, Tails, Sticks, and Rotor there, "What are you three doing here?" "W-We were cleaning up the t-t-t-table." Rotor sighed, "Daisy, Key. I'm so disappointed in you both."
"W-WHAT?! NOT HER?!" Meline was surprised too, "You heard me, disappointed. Not only did you pressure a young genius, but you also hurt his heart. And forcing one of the workers to do the dirty work."
Sally nodded, "Where's your evidence?! You can't prove that it was us!" Key smiled cockily, "Nicole."
She nodded and played an audio record, "Hahahaha, that was a lot of fun for break the two-tailed!"
Both of them were surprised to hear it, "I agree, we should break his Workshop next." "Definitely. And we'll bring Meline along whenever she liked it or not." Nicole stops the audio. Tails was tearing up for hearing it again.
"As the captain of Sky Central, you both are thus kicked out from here." Both of them were surprised by Sally's words, "B-But, our family would never let us-" "We already told them before three of you. Now pack your things, or we'll forced arrest." Key and Daisy collapsed on the ground by Rotor telling them to get out, "It's all his fault."
Daisy stood up, "If that kid didn't come here... WE WOULD HAVE BEEN FAMOUS!" She tries to kill Tails with a knife, but Sonic kicks it away, "You two aren't going terrorize anyone anymore."
Both are immediately handcuffed by the police after Sonic kicks Daisy away. Tails is still shaking from things he witnesses today, "Can someone comfort Tails?"
Sonic knows Tails is still scared, "I can do it." Sticks volunteer, "Thanks... Sticks." Sticks nodded and followed Tails to his quarters.
Sky Central, Tails' Quarters
03/21/2003
They entered the quarters, and Sticks saw Tails had a window, "You are lucky." Tails isn't felt comfort from Sticks, "Do you want me to stay here?"
He nodded, "You know, for an eight-year-old, you're an amazing kid." Tails teared up, "I care about you, and everyone does. You didn't need-" "What?! Are you saying I can walk past that?!"
Tails begin crying, "I don't have a family to talk over! And you still care-" Sticks quickly hugs Tails, "Look, I don't know what you've been through, but... I barely interact with my family. So, calm yourself down." Tails cry, making him emotional, "Hm hm hm." Sticks humming trying to calm Tails down.
She saw Tails sleeping in his bed, "Time to go-" She stopped and looked at Tails, "Maybe I should stay for a bit." Sticks lay on the bed, accidentally sleeping beside Tails.
Sky Central, Tails' Quarters
03/22/2003
Tails open his eyes to the top, "-yawn- What asleep." He turned and saw Sticks sleeping beside her. His face turned because Sticks hugging him, "Sticks, wake up." Tails pat Sticks' head multiple times, waking her up. She saw that she was hugging Tails, "U-Ummmm! I'm so sorry!"
Sky Central, Living Quarters
03/22/2003
Sonic stretched his arms and saw Sticks coming out of Tails' Quarters and heads back to her Quarters. Tails walked out of his Quarters, seeing Sonic there, "What just happened?" Tails was confused about the events, "I do not know."
Sky Central, Sticks' Quarters
03/22/2003
Sticks wash her face to wake her up, 'That was so embarrassing! Why did I sleep beside him?!' She looked at herself in the mirror, 'Maybe I should take a shower.' She turned and headed for a shower.
While showering, she thinks of Tails, 'Is he same with my feelings?' Her face blushed for imagining it.
The Sky, Air Jail
03/22/2003
"That two-tailed kid!" Daisy was still mad about what happened last night, "Calm down, Daisy. You need to be careful with that rage." Daisy took a deep breath, "You're right." She sits down on her bed, 'Just you wait, two-tailed freak! Once we get out, we will find you!'
A/N: Those girls will return, and I will use them later. Yes, I shipped Tails and Sticks. Just don't bully other people, it will hurt their hearts. Also, the ranking will be updated.
