The 3 Shadows, Episode 3 - Miles' Tail
Chapter 3 - Gerald's secret plan
Miles awoke, finding himself in one of Gerald dark damp prison cells. Oh great what else is going to go wrong for me today? Gerald soon entered the prison and stood in front of Miles' cell.
"I knew it was only a matter of time before you returned home so I planted small cameras nearby", said Gerald.
"Why me?" asked Miles.
"Not so much you specifically, I need one of the Shadows and it's either Joz's highly secure mansion or your small cottage home. Which would you choose?" said Gerald.
"I see. Doesn't matter anyway, they're the heroes. I'm just a tagalong really", said Miles.
"Well seeing as I was expecting this I have had a plan I've been waiting to put into action", said Gerald.
"I guess this is where you reveal your plan for your own self-esteem. Classic villian behaviour", said Miles.
"It doesn't matter if you know or not, there's nothing you can do about it. You see I've been researching mind control and furthering my knowledge of genetics. I've developed a way of using Chaos energy to mutate people, and guess what you're going to be my test subject for both my mutation ray and my mind control crown", said Gerald.
"How's this going to help you then?" asked Miles.
"Simple, I plan to pit you against the other shadows. A mutated version of you should beat them pretty easily", replied Gerald, "And when I have them too there will be very little standing in my way".
Suddenly Gas appeared from the walls of Miles' cell. He fell unconscious yet again. When he woke up he found himself chained to the table staring at a giant ray gun. Miles started struggling; after all he didn't want to be a mutated monster.
"Stop struggling, there's no way you're going to escape", said Gerald pulling down a lever, "I can't say whether it will hurt or not seeing as you're my first test subject". Miles started screaming as the ray gun fired a beam. It lasted a couple of minutes and it did hurt, a lot! Miles lay there crying out in pain, not knowing exactly what Gerald had done to him. Would this mutation be a curse or a blessing in disguise.
Gerald held a thin metal crown in his hand as he walked over to the chained up Miles. He placed the crown on his head after much effort; Miles wasn't going to go down without some sort of a fight. As soon as the crown was placed on his head Miles stopped struggling.
"Who is your master?" asked Gerald.
"You are Gerald Robotnik", replied Miles.
"Excellent it worked", said Gerald. He pressed a button and the chains that had held Miles to the table were removed. Miles stood for the first time as a mutant. Everything was the same apart from one major difference. He now had another tail.
"That it? After searching for days for a Chaos emerald to get the mutation ray up and running this is the only thing it did? One extra tail?" said Gerald moaning. Miles walked about stumbling a little as he adjusted for the extra tail.
"Are you disappointed master?" asked Miles.
"A little, I can't see any benefit from you having another Tail", replied Gerald, "Wait a minute, try spinning them around like a fan". Miles proceeded to do so as Gerald sat on a chair.
"Aim it at me", said Gerald, "At least I have a new air conditioning system".
Gerald turned on a nearby television. During the program they were watching a helicopter appeared. It was then that he realised the potential of this new tail.
"Miles, try to fly using your tails as rotor blades. Just like that helicopter", said Gerald. Miles proceeded to do so and found that using them this way he could fly.
"Excellent. That mutation paid off after all. Now go and find Shadow and Joz, Take them out one at a time and bring them to me", Said Gerald.
"As you wish Master", said Miles leaving the room.
