Symphony of the small ones.





It's been two hours since the escape from the mystic ruins. When the group got to Station Square Tails had a plan to split up so it would be harder to be discovered. Of course Sonic and Shadow were happy about it because they would finally have the chance to get away from one another.



"What's with those two? Even after all they've been trough together they can't seem to get along." Tails thought out loud.

The parings for the plan were simple. It was obvious that Shadow and Rouge would leave with one another. Tails suggested that Amy and Sonic leave together because Sonic still seemed to doubt his relationship with her. He thought it would bring them closer to one another……or Sonic closer to her actually.

That left Tails alone. He didn't mind at all. Hell, he could take care of himself anyway. He sat on the side of a building. It had started to rain and he looked down over the street. The street was busy, he could tell that by just the amount of light on it.

He started to think to himself…..about the past that not even he knew about. He reached into his left glove and pulled out a silver chain necklace with a small pendant hooked on the end of it. The pendant was silver and it glistened in the light. He had this necklace ever since he was an infant , but he never wore it. The pendant was a fox head with crossed gothic style bones behind it that formed an x. Under the head were gothic letters that read "Prower". The rain drops hit it and made glisten ever harder. He took the other end of the chain and buckled it to the wrist strap on his glove so that it hung off his wrist like a pendulum. "The only clue I have…." He said as he looked skyward. He saw a G.U.N. helicopter fly overhead. There was no way they could have spotted him so he didn't bother to duck or move away from its view. "B.W.2……..what are those bastards up to?" He thought as he wrapped the necklace around his wrist so that it didn't hang as much. Tails was sure that Knuckles was having problems with G.U.N. as well. He knew that he would soon come to join him and the others and he shuddered at the thought.

"I'll be breaking up fights for weeks……" Tails thought still looking skyward. Sonic and Shadow was bad enough, but Sonic, Shadow and Knuckles? All three of them couldn't stand being close to one another. Like always Tails knew that he would have to be the peacemaker.

Suddenly Tails noticed the presence of another. Whoever it was they were coming from his right. Tails Stood up and jumped to the next level of the side of the building so he could see who it was. But the mystery person followed him. It was obvious now that whoever this person was they were after him. He knew that he would have to fight whoever this person was so he decided to get a little room to move around. He begun to spin his Tails so that they mimicked a propeller of some kind. He leaped of the side of the building and started to fly up to the rooftop. He looked down and saw his pursuer. It was obviously a mobian…..but it looked young. About his age to be exact.

Suddenly he noticed that the figure opened wings and flew after him. "A bat!?" He thought as he lured it to the rooftop. Tails landed on the roof and ran to the other side to make room for his pursuer. His plan worked perfectly and the figure landed right were he wanted it to. It was a bat and it looked to be his age. It was a boy and he had short white bangs that hung over his forehead. He wore black baggy jeans with a black T- shirt with black leather gloves. He had on shoes that were very similar to Tails'. He had a small gold locket around his neck. The fur on his head was white and the flesh on his arms was a light tan color. He had tight eyelids and his eyes were aqua colored. His T-shirt had the letters G.S.F. printed on it.

When Tails saw those letters he knew it was obvious who this kid was related to. "And just who the flaming hell are you?" Tails asked with tense eyes. The bat smiled and revealed his fangs and spoke. "I would tell you but……I'd brake a couple rules if I did." The young bat replied.

Tails crossed his arms and stared at the bat hard. "So you're from G.U.N.? I didn't know they recruited kids who could be in the same class as me." Tails said with a smile.

The bat smiled and crossed his arms as well. "Heh…..I guess my cloths are a dead giveaway." He said in a light tone.

"Well that…….. and the fact that you resemble someone I know. So if you don't mind, TELL ME WHO YOU ARE!" Tails snapped. The bat grinned evilly and straitened his posture. "So she is with you…..tell me…where can I find her?" The bat asked. Tails went into a fighting pose and smiled. "Why? So your friends can know to?" The bat appeared to be getting angry. His eyes narrowed hard. "She has a personal problem to settle with our organization……like it's any of your business." The bat snarled.

Tails grinned slyly and spoke. "She belongs with Shadow….." Tails started but the bat interrupted him. "SHE'S MY SISTER! IF ANYTHING SHE BELONGS WITH US!" The bat shouted. Tails put on his usual toothy grin and spoke. "I knew it! The resemblance is kind of uncanny if you know what I mean." Said Tails. The Bat's eyes widened when he just realized what he had just said. "Well…..you figured me out easily….I guess there's no reason for me to hide my name anymore. I'm known as Spear the bat. I'm Rouge's younger brother." He said taking a bow.



"So did you come here to be made a fool out of? Or did you come here to fight?" Tails asked with a tense voice. "Well guess I have no other choice…..PREPARE TO DIE!" Spear said as he went into a fighter stance of his own. Tails had heard enough of Spear's mouth. He wasted no time and charged at him full force. Spear was ready for anything Tails could dish out. When Tails got right in front of him Spear took him by the forearms and held him at bay. They pushed at each other with all their might only to find out that their strength was equal. Tails broke free of his grasp and kicked at Spears torso and landed the kick in his ribs. The kick knocked spear back a little but he recovered and countered with a right hook to the side of Tails' face. Before Spear got a chance to pull his fist away Tails' grabbed it and pulled Spear forward and kicked him in the side of the head. Spear was a little dazed but he was able to get a hold of Tails leg. He lifted the fox above his head and slammed him hard on the rooftop. Tails quickly got to his feet to see Spear's foot coming directly toward his head. Tails blocked it with his forearm but Spears kick was so hard that even though he blocked it Tails still feel to the ground. He caught himself with his hands and launch kicked Spear directly under the chin causing him to fall as well. They both quickly got up and locked up arms again. They stared hard at each others eyes with intimidating looks. Tails noticed that Spears face was bleeding but e felt his bleeding as well.



"Well…..are…we…evenly matched…or…what?" Spear said gasping for air. Tails didn't answer. He broke free of Spears grasp again and reached into his jacket and through it off. Tails was now holding a small vp70 hand gun. But before he even got a chance to aim Spear reached behind his back and pulled out the exact same gun. Tails quickly aimed the gun barrel on Spears neck. Spear did the same. They were both shocked at how identical their actions were. "Well will you look at that? We even have the same taste in guns!" Spear said as he put his finger in the trigger. Tails grinned and without any sign off warning he pulled the trigger and the sound of the gunshot ringed in his ears. But somehow Spear was able to barely doge the bullet. A cut was bleeding on the side of his neck where the bullet had touched his skin as it went by.

"You bastard!" Spear shouted when he felt the burning sensation scrape his neck. Spear leaned back and kicked the gun from Tails' hand. He dropped his and the two began to brawl again. Every time Spear landed a blow Tails bounced right back with one of his own. The two were evenly matched in every aspect. They fought hard but neither one of them even showed a sign of gaining the upper hand. Tails grabbed Spear by the head and made his knee meet with his face. Spear cried out in pain but keep on fighting. The fight became more deadly with each passing second. Sounds of bones being cracked from powerful blows rang out over the rooftop. Suddenly the two stopped and backed away from each other as is something was wrong. Spear held his arm tight and blood ran from a large open wound that was caused by a kick that broke his arm. Tails held his chest in pain because his lower ribs were broken. They sat gasping for air and staring each other down. They both looked as is they would pass out any second. Tails could feel blood running from the top of his head but he paid it no attention. He was completely focused on Spear who was completely focused on him.

"How…..could…you compete?" Spear asked with blood running from the side of his head. Tails smiled painfully and replied. "I think the question is….how could you?" Tails said with pain in his voice. Spear didn't change his face expression but continued. "I'll kill you…..but not at this time. It's pretty obvious that we're in no condition to continue this right now." Spear added. His eyes started to roll in the back of his head like he was about to collapse but he stopped himself and continued. "See ya'." He said in a cold tone of voice. And with that he turned and flapped his wings hard sending him skyward. He rotated and flew forward and instantly he was gone. Tails was surprised that Spear had enough energy to fly away. "Next…time….I'll break…your wings." Tails slowly let out and closed his eyes and collapsed on the hard rooftop.
