One day, when all was about the same, the birds chirped, the grass was
still green, and purplish flowers dotted around the trees. It was the same
day at the Master Emerald Shrine, when our spiny hero sat on the edge of a
stone step, where he usually sat, pondering about his life. But that day,
he saw something in the sky.
"Huh?" His eyes opened wider, ".What.is that."
He'd always recognize that jet plane.
"Tails!!" He said out loud, while standing up. It's been so long since he'd seen him. What was up? He wouldn't come here for no reason? But who cared? He was here, and that was it. Finally he'd talk to someone.
In minutes, the jet landed, and the small, yellow fox jumped out of it, flying, with his two tails spinning, towards Knuckles.
"Hey there, little man!" The echidna greeted him.
"Hey, ya, Knuckles." Tails replied, as he landed next to our excited friend, ".Got something for you."
"Hm?"
"Check it out." Tails showed him a letter, ".Mayor of Station Square invited Sonic, me, Rogue, Amy, and you to a party tomorrow night."
"Party?!" Knux thought, ".Yes!!! At last, he'd be down again. This is going to be great."
"Yep. There will be food, and people, and.and a whole bunch of stuff." Tails told him.
"Cool.thanks, bud." Knuckles told him, calming down, ".What's the special occasion?"
"Aww.let's just say I confessed that saving the city from Eggman's threat wasn't all of my idea." Tails smiled. Indeed, he was the only person people would think of, other than Sonic, after that presentation, which scared all of them half to death, not to mention the blazing comet heading for Earth, but then suddenly disappearing. Everyone knew too well that it was Sonic. Knuckles smiled.
"Heh.Tails, you've done it again." Knux patted him on the shoulder, "One surprise after another.but this? Thanks a bunch, little buddy."
"Heh.Well.you were the one to stop the emeralds.or so Sonic said. Just because he and Shadow disposed of that lizard, that doesn't mean you were going to be left behind.
"Hm." Knuckles looked aside, thinking, ".Um.yeah.sure, I'll be there. Thanks."
"You bet. See you around!" The little fox returned to his plane.
"Well.at least they still remember about me." Knuckles thought.
Tornado's engines started up, and hot air came out of the turbines. It aerated the ground beneath, and sent wind all over the emerald grass. Tails' plane raised above the ground, and the yellow fox waved to his spiny friend before taking off.
Knuckles stood there, and waved, before Tornado hid behind the mountains on the other side of the island.
"Good ol' Tails." Knuckles thought. Yeah.he knew that the innocent little mechanic would never forget him. Tails was too good of a friend to forget Knuckles. Although they haven't seen each other for a while, the two never changed the way they talked.
It was so ironic. Often good friends would talk on and on about what happened during their summer, when they were miles apart. While Knuckles, Sonic, and Tails would probably not see each other for months in a whole year, and then talk to each other as if they'd live next door. Their lives were so much thrown to and fro; they didn't even care anymore if one is Hawaii, and the other on the moon.
But at least now, he would see them again. It wouldn't be too bad to get some food from down below. Knuckles did miss the sandwiches and all that. He'd finally talk to people. And did they really know that he was the one to save the Earth along with the rest of the gang?
Knuckles didn't want fame.but he did glow about the feeling of appreciation. So he waited for the night, and at noon, the next day, he finally decided to leave.
"Well.here goes." He thought, as he stood at the edge of the island. Knuckles took the Master Emerald with him, since he could shrink it. There's no way he'd leave it alone. Although he loved to talk with others and have company, Knuckles was a fanatic of his work. He didn't care if anyone called him crazy, but if this gem was stolen.he'd get it even if it was in the Earth's core.
And with all that, Knuckles dove off the island. He extended his arms before him, and made his body as straight as a board.
"Here I come." He thought, as he flew through the air like a glider towards the city, with wind blowing behind him.
"Huh?" His eyes opened wider, ".What.is that."
He'd always recognize that jet plane.
"Tails!!" He said out loud, while standing up. It's been so long since he'd seen him. What was up? He wouldn't come here for no reason? But who cared? He was here, and that was it. Finally he'd talk to someone.
