A dark cloud appeared over Green Hill Zone. Robotnik was up to no good. His latest creation, the Egg-O-Matic, a huge aluminium space craft, towered over Sonic's blue spiky body on that cold, stormy day. As Sonic was running along the zone, collecting golden rings that boosted his speed energy, and smashing into badniks right, left, and centre, he stopped for some strange reason. Like something told him to stop. Sonic was confused.

"Yo...! Which un-cool dude is playing tricks on me, huh? Come on, own up!" He murmured. Just then, a little orange, furry ball fell out of the tree above, and knocked Sonic out. "Huh? Wa-wassat?" Sonic woke up a while later, only to find a fox's orange and white furry face staring right at him.

"Hey, mister, are you ok?" said the fox, worried.

"Who are you, little guy? Don't you know falling out of trees is dangerous?" Joked Sonic, annoyingly.

"Uh...It wasn't my fault, honest. I was just trying to live with them..." The fox pointed up at a bird's nest in the tree, the birds turned away, and ignored him. "

"Why would you want to live with them? You're not a bird! Are you...?" Said Sonic, confused.

"I'm not? But I can fly! Watch this!" The fox unusually had 2 big, fluffy tails! He spun then round, and took off, like a helicopter! "See? If I'm not a bird, I must be a bug or somethin'!"

"Look, kid. You're a fox, and foxes don't fly...I must be dreaming..." So Sonic sat down, next to the tree, still confused as ever.

"Well, I can fly, and you're not dreaming...We're on planet Mobius, remember? Not all things are what they seem to be, remember?"

"I...I guess so." Said Sonic, as he shook off his confusion "So, squirt, where are you off to then?"

"Nowhere. I need a home quickly, It's getting dark." Said the fox.

"Say, dude, what's your name?" Sonic muttered, trying to change the question of where the fox lives.

"Miles" he replied.

"Miles?" said Sonic.

"Yea. I hate it. The sad part is...I don't have a family to ask why the called me it!" Miles sobbed, and Sonic wasted no time.

"Ok, lil' guy, you can tag along for a while. But that's only 'cause I hate to see people cry, ok?"

"Gee...thanks mister!" He smiled happily "You really mean it?"

"Sure I do...and I'll nick name you..." Sonic wondered. Then he remembered...Miles can fly..."Tails. I'll call you Tails!"

"Wow! What I day! Not only do I find out that I'm not a bird, not a bug, I've got a big brother and a new name...I'm Tails!" Tails flew upside down, then giggled to himself. Sonic was happy with what he done. He'd never seen a fox so happy before. It brought a tear to his eye. So he breathed in, and said

"Come on, Tails! Let's go take on Robotnik together!"

"Alright...Let's go, go, go!" Shouted Tails, as they ran off together. But little did they know, they were destined to be friends forever...
