Tails' Fatal Choice

Chapter Two: The Problem

On Angel Island, Knuckles was shadow boxing and he was pretty bored. "There has got to be some way to do something else and guard this Master Emerald. For years I have guarded this thing and I still can't find a way to entertain myself." Knuckles thought aloud. He shadowboxed for another twenty minutes when he finally thought of an idea. 'I'll just ask Tails if he can set up cameras and defense machines to guard the Master Emerald, because I need a break.' Knuckles thought. He took a shower and glided to Station Square.

When he finally got there, he looked onto his map to see where Tails' new shop was. "He said it was just off of Hanson Street." Knuckles muttered. He glided a few more blocks down and found the shop. He was walking in when he saw a vixen with a big brown fox with her. It seemed like they were talking. He quickly positioned himself to the other side of the wall and listened. "Now I want you to fire when I give you the signal. We will finish this plan at last." the vixen said. "Uh what plan was that?" the big brown fox asked. "The plan to kill Tails and get revenge for the boss you idiot." the vixen said. "Let's go before you say something else stupid." the vixen said and pulled the brown fox with her. She walked out the front door and Knuckles got a real good look at her. "I have to warn Tails." Knuckles said.

Meanwhile at the movies…

"Wow Sonic, that was a great movie." Janet said. "I wish it was more action packed. Maybe then I wouldn't have fallen asleep so quickly." Sonic said. "Oh you know you was into that as much as I was." Janet said. "Yeah right." Sonic snickered and opened the car door for Janet to get in.

Flashback of the movie…

"Oh Maria, I love you." the man said. "I love you too James." the lady said. 'This movie is so romantic. I hope they get married and live a happy life.' Janet thought. 'Man this movie sucks. I hope Janet doesn't eat all the popcorn.' Sonic thought. End flashback.

As Sonic was getting into the car, Knuckles ran past him. "Yo Knux, what's the rush?" Sonic asked. Knuckles stopped and walked towards Sonic. "Tails is in major trouble if we don't warn him that someone is trying to kill him." Knuckles answered. "Who?" Sonic asked. "It was this vixen that I saw and this other guy…" Knuckles said trailing off, trying to remember. "Was the vixen a mature looking one?" Sonic asked. "Yes." Knuckles answered. "It was Vixette Berreta." Sonic said. "I know her, I work with her at the law firm office. We work under Vixene Furr." Janet said. "I can tell you where she lives if you need to find her." Janet continued. "Fine with me." Knuckles said. Janet wrote down the directions on a piece of paper and gave it to Knuckles. "I'll follow shortly, I have to take Janet home." Sonic said.

Later that day…

Knuckles glided to Vixette's house and landed at her doorstep. Sonic quickly followed with dust behind him. "Alright we need to sneak in and find out what her problem is with Tails." Sonic said. Knuckles knocked down the door with one tap. "What a great way to sneak into a house Knux." Sonic whispered. "My bad." Knuckles said and went inside the house.

Meanwhile at Tails' shop…

Vixette and Tails were at a table talking and eating when suddenly Vixette shuddered. "Are you cold Vixette?" Tails asked. He got up from his seat and got Vixette a blanket. "Thanks." she said. "No problem." Tails said and smiled. Vixette gave him a warm smile back. "Excuse me." Vixette said and went into the lady's room. She looked into the mirror and saw herself. "Why do I feel like this, why do I even have to kill Tails? Sure he got rid of Eggman, but I never liked him anyway. I was third in command, but Tails treats me like a queen. Why am I going to kill a hero for a dead man?" Vixette asked herself. After she was done asking herself these questions, she wiped her face with water and sat back at the table. "So, what was you saying about the dance tomorrow?" Tails asked. "Oh, I wanted you to come with me as my date." Vixette said. "Sure. Why not?" Tails said and got up from his seat. He sat on his couch and drifted into sleep. Vixette sat next to him and cuddled with him. "I love you Tails." she whispered in his ear and fell asleep next to him.

Meanwhile outside the shop…

A figure was in the bushes looking into the window. "She has dishonored the boss and has given up on revenge. I must kill him myself and be recognized as the best that ever worked with Eggman. At the dance I must kill Tails and Vixette for betraying us." the person said.
