Well, the cast'll always be short for now, since Sonic's out in the woods. Hopefully he'll find a villadge or something soon. Till then, heeeeere's the story.
"I can't believe they didn't go to my base!! I marked the map around so my base would be marked as a town on the map... " complained Falco, flying through the trees. "These 'Freedom Frighters'-- or was it Freedom Fighters?-- are more annoying than I thought. Ah, well, I enjoy a good adversary."
"You still playin' that video game, Tails?" asked Sonic. They'd been wandering in the forest for half a week now. "Yeah, and Christin's gotten us to Braniac's Castle!" exclaimed Tails.
"Sonic, do you have any idea where we are?" Sally asked.
"Not a clue.." sighed Sonic before tripping over something. "Ouch! What the-?"
Sonic picked up a rock he tripped on. It had an eye carved into the side of it. "Cool!" shouted Tails, putting the rock in his backpack before Sonic could toss it.
"I hope we get somewhere soon!" groaned Sally. Tails seemed to agree with her as he hovered down to the ground. Sonic started setting up his tent, without much succession, of coarse.
Tails looked up and saw Christin still flying around like she had all the energy in the world, not a bit tired, as she had been since they'd gone with Sonic about a week ago. "Christin, how come you've got so much energy?" asked Tails.
"I dunno, I never really thought about it." said Christin. "I guess I was born this way."
"Oh. Cool! I bet you could go faster than Sonic--"
"Whoa, don't go there, lil' bro!" said Sonic, trapped in a mass of tent-cloth and string. "Dang I hate these tents!"
Tails took out the rock he had in his hands and looked at the eye on it.. "This thing look pretty old.." he said to himself, ignoring Sonic, who was still rolling around in a heap of what should have been a tent. Tails saw a shadow on the ground, then got a blank star on his face for a second.. He flew at Sonic and pushed him into a tree. "Hey, what was that--" Sonic started, before being interrupted by a bomb dropping where he was seconds ago. "..Whoa, how'd you do that?" Sonic asked, still struggling in his 'tent'.
"I dunno, it was weird.. I saw a shadow, and then I saw an image of a bomb dropping, so I pushed you out of the way." Tails said, blowing on his singed tail tips.
"Curses!.. I've always hated that fox.." mumbled Falco, flying into the forest.
Christin sat down on a log, since no one else was flying or anything (Except Sonic, who was still struggling with his tent, and Tails, who got stuck inside Sonic's tent when he tried to help.). She still looked full of energy, though.
After what seemed like hours, Sonic and Tails finally got the four tents up. The air was just now getting freezing, unlike Knothole, which had already taken full effect of winter. Sonic and the others went into their tents, except for Tails. He looked up as if expecting to see a stealth bomber or something for a good ten minutes before going into his tent.
Tails started having a dream at about midnight.. It was after noon, and it was in the clearing he was in now. "Why don't we stay here for a day?" said Sonic. "We need a day off from all this walking."
After everyone agreed, the dream shifted to an hour later.. "Alright, men!! Attack!!!" shouted someone's voice, as five hawks flew down and landed near Tails, laughing. Cptn. Falco S. laned next to them, a maniacal look on his face. "I finally get to rid myself of you." he said, "and my useless android spy won't be able to stop me.."
Tails woke up out of dead sleep. Afternoon light shone through his tent.. "Oh no!" he shouted, running out of his tent.
"Man, my feet are killing me still.." complained Sally. "Yeah, me too." said Sonic. Walking in the forest for a week can really take its toll on you. "Why don't we stay here for a day?" said Sonic. "We need a day off from all this walking."
Everyone agreed, except for Tails. "Sonic, we've got to keep moving!!"
"Why?" asked Sonic. "Isn't this a good spot to stay for a day?"
"It's not that!" exclaimed Tails, "I had a dream that if we stay here, we'll be attacked!!"
"But that was just a dream, Tails!" said Sonic.
"I know, but I just have a feeling it'll come true!"
"Sonic, let's just move on into th forest if it'll make Tails feel better." said Sally.
"Alright, you win." said Sonic, picking up his backpack and walking into the forest. Sally and the others followed.
"What kinda dream did you have, anyway?" asked Christin.
"Well, Sonic said the exact same thing he said a few minutes ago, but we actually did stay at the camp. About an hour or so later, that Captain Falco guy came after us with five strong hawk-soldiers. Right as they started ripping the tents to shreds, I woke up." explained Tails, keeping part of the dream a secret.
"Hold on a sec." said Christin, reaching behind her neck ad pulling a tiny little machine off. "I knew it! They had a trackign device on m--"
Just then, they heard someone shouting. Christin tossed the tracking device into the bushes and told Sonic to take Sally and run for it. She and Tails flew after Sonic, as the flapping of wings would be heard nearby.
"Dang, they must be leaving already!!" shouted Falco, landing next to some hawk fighters. Falco looked at a screen on a hand-held radar-looking thing, and walked toward the bushes where Christin had tossed the tracker. "I got you now.." he said, running into the bushes with the hawks. He jumped out of the bushes, followed by his soldiers, holding a tracking device.
"Darn it!!" he shouted, slamming the little machine hard into teh ground. "It's like that little freak can sense the future!!!!!!"
After a day of running/walking, Tails set up the four tents and they were all getting in their tents for the night.
Christin sat in her tent, covering her ears, talking mentally.. She heard voices in her head..
"C-S!! Where are you!?" shouted a familiar voice in her head.
"Leave me alone!" she shouted mentally. The voice tried to say something else, but Christin screamed in her mind and then she heard what sounded like an explosion. No one else seemed to have heard anything, because they were all fast asleep.
Tails sat in his tent, remembering his other dream..
"You stupid android!! How dare you disobey your creator!?" shouted Falco, shooting energy blasts at Christin. He hurled a bomb at her right before Tails' dream ended..
"No, it was just coincedence that my last dream came true." said Tails to himself, blocking out the dream. "Besides, Christin isn't an android."
"I hate having someone who I gave everything he or she owns now and then they dishobey me......." mumbled Falco deep inside Black Island. "It's enough to make you sick! That idiot Skar was just as bad!!!" he shouted.
Meanwhile, thousands of miles away from Black Isle, Knothole was sound asleep.. well, most of Knothole. As if hearing his name being shouted, Skar woke up from a dead sleep. He layed back down in his tent and sighed to himself. "No, stop kidding yourself, it'll never happen.." he said to himself. "She'll never like me..."
"Who you talkin' to, Alexi?" asked a familiar female voice outside. Skar nearly tore down the tent jumping out of surprise.
"Wh-what're you doin' here, Bunnie?" he asked, fixing his tent and walking out into his campsite.
"I was takin' a walk in the woods and ah heard you talkin'. Who're you talkin' about anyway?"
"Err.. I-It's kind.. kind of secret.. I-I can't... can't tell you.." stuttered Skar, his face turning blood red.
"'Zat so? Well, ah'll see you later then." Bunnie said, walking back into the woods.
"I need to stop thinking personally." said Skar to himself..
The sun was slowly rising. Tails hopped out of his tent and stretched. "Man, walking in the woods sure is harder than it sounds." said Tails. "It's fun, but... tiring.." he continued with a yawn. Just then, he saw a huge flash of light and when it cleared, he saw Falco, shooting energy-wave attacks at him, Sonic, Sally, and Christin, who were now suddenly awake and out of their tents. It was suddenly noon, and no one looked a bit sleepy. "Good thing you didn't decide to go a little further from Black Island's radar!!" he chuckled merrily. "Because now I get to kill you all." he continued with a raspy, dark, and sinister voice. He shot an energy wave at Christin, hitting her arm, leaving a robotic arm where the old one used to be. But he'd already hit Sonic in the arm, and Sonic's arm was only bleeding a little, it wasn't robotic.. Right as Falco got ready to throw another blast, Tails woke up. He was slumped on a log nearby. Tails saw Sonic and the others talking about something. "Oh no, what time is it?!" Tails thought. "Aah! It's noon!"
"Sonic, we've got to go, now!!" shouted Tails. "What's wrong, lil bro?" asked Sonic. "You have another nightmare?"
"It wasn't a nightmare, I just know I saw what's going to happen in a few minutes!!" Tails shouted.
"Tails, how often can nightmares come true?" asked Sonic, still not believing. Sally was about to say something when they all heard someone's voice overhead..
"Hahahah!! Radar never fails!!!" shouted Falco, landing nearby. He shot energy waves at Sonic, Sally, Tails, and Christin, but only hit Sonic. "Good thing you didn't decide to go a little further from Black Island's radar!!" he chuckled merrily. "Because now I get to kill you all." he continued with a raspy, dark, and sinister voice. Tails remembered his dream and jumped between Falco and Christin right as Falco shot an energy wave. It singed Tails' arm and flew back into the woods, cutting down roughly twenty trees. Falco glowed emerald green for a few seconds, then shot a gigantic beam of energy at Christin and Tails.. When the light cleared, there was some sort of energy shield around the two foxes..
"No!! Someone's altared fate here!!!" he shouted, throwing wave after wave of energy at the shield. "I know it!! No one could've countered my super-swift Energy Blades!!!!"
"Well, that's what you get for being stupid." said Christin, who was controling the shield. Sonic started a spin-dash but Falco flew away. "You've not heard the last of Black Island!!!!" he shouted. "YOU WILL ALL DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" His voice seemed to be more of a roar than a voice as he flew toward the ocean. Christin fell down onto a large stump and sat down, lowering the shield. "How'd you do that?!" asked Tails, amazed.
"Huh? Oh, the shield? Er.. I got it from my father." she said simply.
"Oh. Thanks for saving me!" he said.
"Uhm.. No problem." she continued.
"Why is my technology NEVER flawless?!?!" shouted Falco back at his base, mumbling curses under his breath. "My android has done me no good yet, that Christin can create shields still, and our future-seeing prototype is in our spy android!! WHY THE HECK CAN'T ANYTHING WORK FOR ME?!?!?!?" he roared, slamming his fist into a table, splitting it in half. "I KNEW I should've programmed that android better!!! Now it's like they can all sense the future!!!" He sat back and thought a minute, and took out an old book. He flipped the pages to a picture of what looked like an eye... except taht it was a stone.. "Ah.. maybe they can tell the future... or one of them, anyway.. this really reeks.."
He looked down at the picture of the stone eye once more.. "Sir! We have a reading on a Chaos Emerald!!" shouted somebody in the base.
"Great!!" shouted Falco. "Which one?!"
"Shadow, sir!"
"Excellent!!!! Give me the coordinates now, and put a recieving chip at the base!! I'm giong out!!" shouted Falco, putting a teleportation chip in his communicator. He grabbed a map with a purple emerald marked on it then flew off toward a dark swamp. "This will be all too easy.." he said to himself. "I'll be able to counter them in no time..."
