From Heaven's Eye Above…

From heaven's eye above, a small form looked down. Tears filled Miles Prower's face as he examined the new lifestyle his friends have taken. "They would never forget…" he said, "Never…"

I gazed longingly as I watched. Had they finally moved on? It's been five years since his death and although below all his best friends have aged into mature adults, the young fox will always remain with the youthful appearance.

It's been so long since someone's visited me, that they forgot about me. I know they have their own lives to attend to, but if I'm always with them, why can't they respect me with visits? I was there when Knuckles got married four years ago. Who'd think he would hook up with Rouge anyway? And only one year after my death.

Plus I was there when Sonic and Amy had their first date. Kind of an invasion of their privacy, but who's to say I wouldn't have snuck around them to watch anyway?

No, they would never forget me. We had been so close, always together. I thought that nothing would tear us apart. Who would think it was only spinning blades that could actually pull us away.

Tears trickled down my warm face. I wanted so much to talk to one of them, there was so much up here. I discovered that our friend, Shadow, is not deceased. From what we thought was a fall to his doom was merely a sad attempt at Chaos Control.

This made me upset in a way, which I would have no one to talk to. Selfish, I know, but I'm sure I would be good company for Shadow. Then he could introduce me to Maria, the girl he was so crazy about; he was willing to do anything to avenge her.

Then when Cheese suddenly turned up, things changed and I was no longer lonely. I remember that everyday, Cheese would get constant messages from Cream. Though she couldn't exactly hold a conversation, they both seemed overall pleased that they could at least stay in contact.

Nothing really odd has happened over the years worth explaining, but I will say that what happens over the next period of time that will change my after-life forever.

I was looking out of the clouds, watching people, live people, live out their daily lives. It makes me sad to think that I shall never have that feeling again, that feeling of being glad to be alive.

As I was watching, I noticed Sonic running down the street. From what I've seen, Sonic had spoken for the first time in almost four years during his date with Amy. It's a thing like that that would make a girl like Amy smile.

Well, anyway, there is Sonic, running down the street.

Sonic took in a deep breath, "Ah! Feels good to be talking again!"

Amy, who was walking up along side him gave a giggle, "You could've talked anytime you wanted to Sonic,"

Sonic's face got serious, "No Amy, I couldn't. That's what scares me. I try to think what made me decide not to talk anymore…"

"Well, whatever it was, it's over now and you don't have to worry anymore!"

A tear welled in my eye. Forget? It was my death that forced him into a shell of silence. I guess the kiss of Amy must've forced a voice out of him, but he won't really forget me, will he?

Sonic looked over at Amy and shook his head, "I don't want to forget… I want to know what did that to me… whatever it was, it must have been important. Why else would I clam up for four years?"

"Because people tell you to?"

Sonic sighed, "You know, just once I'd like someone to call me 'sir' without adding, 'You're making a scene',"

Amy then began to laugh hysterically at the last comment Sonic made. Even I let out a chuckle. Where does he come up with this stuff?

I looked down, wishing with all my might I could go down there. I don't care the age difference where I could pose as Sonic's son, I just want to see him again. I'd do anything…

Then, as if my dreams were answered, I heard a voice behind me, "I can help you see your friends,"

I turned around and saw a tall figure. The woman had a peaceful looking nature and must've been nice, for on their shoulder sat Cheese, who seemed to trust her.

"W-what?"

"I said I can help you go back to your friends,"

This almost sounded too good to be true, "What's the catch?"

A laugh expelled from her lips, "You're a smart kid. You're right, I don't just hand out lives for free,"

"Well?"

"I hear you'd do anything to see them again, right?"

"As long as it doesn't hurt anyone besides me, of course,"

"Alright, that sounds fair enough to me! Do we have a deal?" She held out her hand.

Still suspicious, I shook the hand. Then, a blast of severe pain shot up my body, especially my left tail, which in life, had been severed off. I then reached at my neck as a piecing ache stung into it. I shivered all over, seeing the last glimpse of heaven, where it appeared the same was happening to Cheese.

Then, I died.

From heaven's eye above, my small form looked down. Tears filled my own face as I examined the new lifestyle my friends have taken. "They would never forget…" I said, "Never…"
