Tails
opened his eyes, slowly. He felt a strange feeling in his head and,
as he put his hand to the pain, noticed the dried blood. Groaning,
the young two tailed fox managed to lift himself up so that he sat on
his knees. His surroundings were dark and unknown to him, and also
very warm and had an annoying humidity. Wether it was the pain in his
head or the lack of light blinding him Tails couldn't determine,
but as he looked around he could just make out what looked like
bodies surrounding him, yet they were breathing. He guessed that he
was the only one awake in this prison yet he dared not call out to
check, as he felt a presence of evil around him. Tails felt the iron
floor with his hands and guessed he was in some kind of cage. He
sighed glumly, trying to remember what had happened to him. His mind
went to Sonic. Where was he? Had he been hurt? Why wasn't he there
to help?
"Sonic..please get here soon.." he whispered,
bravely, to himself and with that his mind fell back into an
uncomfortable
sleep.
"We've
got to get a move on!" Sonic was getting impatient. "The others
need our help!"
Knuckles was getting a bit annoyed at Sonic's
insisting, as he never liked people telling him what to do.
"Sonic,
the Earth has a little thing called "layers"" he sarcastically
pointed out.
"We're on this side and Eggman is on the other
and there's no way in hell I'll be able to dig a tunnel for you
without dying of exhaustion first!"
"OK OK yeesh! No need to
yell!" Sonic said.
"Well we DO have Tails' little plane
here…" Shadow was leant against the X Tornado, it had been
transformed into battle mode, complete with huge drill on top!
"….Of
course!" Sonic redeemed his coolness. "Let's go!"
