Hey everyone! What's up!?
So I saw that apparently this month marks the 30th anniversary of a certain two-tailed yellow fox, also the best Sonic character, Miles Tails Prower.
And if you haven't known already, he is my most favorite Sonic character and to celebrate, here's just a little something I thought of for the anniversary!
(Tails's POV)
"Good job son, now be careful with the screwdriver, nice and slowly." I guided my young eight year old fox and bunny hybrid son as I towered over him, softly instructing him as we both were patching up the Tornado, the old biplane still in one piece after all this time. "Easy, easy… Great." I praised my son as I gave him a smile.
"Thanks dad… Can't believe you did this for a long time." My son replied.
"Well, got to keep the old girl in shape." I chuckled, gently patting onto the metal body of my most prized possession.
Life was just perfect for me as I was beginning my 30th year in my life, with so much going on that led to this point. Growing up and going on so many adventures with my friends, fighting and defeating many bad guys, losing and winning battles. Eventually as I grew older into my teen years, Eggman, the top baddie, grew older too, slowing down as he became more of a very minor nuisance.
Meanwhile I fell in love, got married, settling down while having a child of my own. With not too many threats these days, I could take care of my family and use my expertise as a mechanic to fix others' things. Speaking of falling in love…
"You boys hungry and thirsty?" A sweet and soft voice sounded from behind us as my son and I turned to see a young smiling female bunny holding onto a tray with some fresh baked goods and a couple of lemonades.
"Yeah, thanks mom!" My son spoke loudly as he put down the tool he was holding and replacing it with one of the cool glasses.
"You're just the best Cream." I smiled as I joined my wife and son, giving my wife a quick kiss on the cheek as I took my snack. "That hits the spot." I commented as I enjoyed the cool liquid going down my throat before taking one of the cupcakes Cream baked.
"No problem Tails." Cream chuckled. "Glad you're enjoying it."
As my son and I enjoyed our little snack break, Cream noticed something coming towards them outside the small hangar where the Tornado was parked.
"Looks like a breeze is coming in." Cream noted as I looked to where my wife was looking, but I knew it wasn't just a breeze coming in.
"No…" Tails pointing out. "He'll be here in three, two…" I began counting as a rush of air blew in the hangar as a new person, or rather hedgehog, was present.
"One." The guest finished for me as my son came froward to give the newcomer a big hug.
"Uncle Sonic!" My son shouted as he wrapped his arms around the blue hedgehog.
"How's my favorite family doing?" Sonic chuckled as I came to his side, Sonic and I fistbumping each other before we hugged each other as soon as my son let go.
"We're doing great buddy." I smiled. "And let me guess, Eggman is causing some trouble?"
"Yeah, I wish it was just for a social visit, but Eggman is doing another one of his crazy ideas…" Sonic informing me. "The guy's like a hundred years old, but he just continues to annoy us."
"Well, better return the favor and annoy him." I joked. "Luckily I just finished patching up the old girl with my boy here." I smiled as I was ready for just another quick fight.
"Oh dad, Uncle Sonic, can I come along!?" My son pleaded. "I'm old enough now!" My son giving Sonic and I puppy dog eyes as I looked at him first before moving my head up to Cream, whether or not my son would come was up to her…
"Well… Eggman is really only a minor annoyance at best these days…" Cream thinking about it as she had to think like a mother, but than again… her son was Tails' age when he was fighting Eggman and many other bad guys and Tails had Sonic and the rest of their friends to watch each other's backs. "I guess as long as your father and Uncle Sonic can keep an eye on you the whole time, it's alright."
"Thanks so much mom!" My son happily shouted as he gave Cream a hug. "I'm sure dad and Uncle Sonic will keep me safe!"
"I have no doubt about that." Cream replied as she gave my son a kiss on his forehead as I climbed into the cockpit of the Tornado while Sonic came after, picking up my son and putting him in the back cockpit, making sure he was buckled in before my longtime friend took his usual spot, on top of the wings.
"Everyone ready!?" I asked as both Sonic and my son replied, "Yes!" Then starting up the engine, the old girl still giving its mighty roar as the propeller spun to life, blowing up some dust as I held onto the flight stick.
"Good luck and stay safe boys!" Cream yelled above the noise.
"Will do honey!" I yelled back. "We'll be back in time for dinner!" I promised as I blew my wife a kiss before releasing the brakes, taking the Tornado out of the hangar and down the small runway. "Here we go guys!" I yelled as I sent the Tornado charging down the runway before lifting off into the skies above, doing a couple barrels rolls for fun, both my son and Sonic letting out happy yells.
Yup, life was indeed perfect, I couldn't complain and ask for anything better as I had everything I needed to be happy. I wore a smile as I flew the Tornado above the clouds, enjoying the gentle breeze blowing as I flew towards another adventure and memory to add.
And I'll leave it there!
I hope you enjoyed and again, happy anniversary to Mr. Miles Tails Prower! Here's hoping for another 30 years to last for the best Sonic character!
Also, I am more of a Tails and Cosmo shipper, but I'm not sure how Cosmo would exactly fit into the stories these days, since you know… She heroically sacrificed herself… (Sheds a tear) So Tails and Cream seem the next best choice.
Anyway with that…
See everyone later!
