Chapter 2: A weakness
Tails
We were heading through the busy streets of Station Square and sometimes stopping and browsing through the shops. I had found myself always wanting to be close to Sonic. I felt so alone when he wasn't around and it only made me want to be near him more. I felt like a little child wanting to be noticed by parents. I suppose in a way I saw Sonic as a father, a brother, and a friend. Sonic was always there when I need him and I that's why I loved him so much.
But something was starting to worry me though. Because every now and then he would start to cough for no reason but he would keep saying it was nothing; he described it as having a scratch in his throat but I found it hard to believe because of the way he coughed. But I still didn't push the subject, I just hoped he would tell me the truth soon. I feared for his safety.

What was this I was feeling, it was so painful but I couldn't tell Tails how it felt. I couldn't really describe it but I knew it was there and it scared me. I was scared; scared of something I don't even know what it is. The pain was becoming to much but I still had to pretend I was fine; for Tails' sake, if not my own. I couldn't put him through this, he doesn't deserve to see me like this.
I had always been strong and fast in Tails' eyes and I was scared what he would think if he saw just how weak I have become now. I feared this pain and what it was doing to me. But I still had to lie to keep Tails happy. Tails' happiness is all that matters to me and I would hate myself if he was ever sad.
I looked up to him after managing to stop the coughing since I had dropped to my knees and I could tell immediately that he wasn't happy anymore and I felt horrible that I was letting this hurt him. I looked down again as I stood up and lightly petted his head even though the pains still ran through me. The worry was clear in his eyes and I felt I wouldn't be able to hide it much longer.
As I tried to talk again I felt a pain run up my back and I started to cough again and found that my legs where getting very numb. It was becoming almost impossible to stand but I still tried none the less. I looked at Tails again through my gloved hands seeing the worry was only increasing the harder I coughed but then I saw something that made me scared now.
I was coughing up my blood. Blood specs were all over my gloves and I found it harder to stop coughing then before. I looked at Tails once more through blurry eyes and I could only mutter his name faintly as I finally dropped to the ground totally losing consciousness but not before I heard him scream my name before everything went black.
Tails
I could only cry now as I held him close in my arms. I felt so helpless holding him like this, I was so scared of what has happened to him. I could hear people gathering around and someone calling for an ambulance and I could only hope that it came soon. I was to scared to move for fear that it might make it worse for him so all I could do was wait.
But waiting was the last thing I wanted to do and I was scared that the longer I waited the worser it would be for him. I looked down at Sonics unconscious form as I took a glove off my hand and wiped the blood from his mouth which was partly open. I managed to keep from crying again as I looked at his closed eyes which were squinted showing he was in a lot of pain.
a few minutes pass and it begins to rain
I couldn't take it anymore, I had waited to long and those paramedics were taking to long. I had to get Sonic to a hospital fast. I looked up a little at the people around me and as I started to attempt to pick Sonic up I could hear the sounds of the ambulance approaching so I decided against trying myself now.
I looked up again as the paramedics came through the crowd with a stretcher and medical equipment. I watched as they slowly picked Sonic from my arms and set him on the stretcher. I immediately got up and took Sonics hand in mine as they wheeled him to the ambulance. As they got him inside I hopped in and sat on the panel beside him.
I couldn't bare being separated from him when he's in this shape and I wanted to be with him every step of the way. I sat with him as they placed an oxygen mask over his mouth and I tried my hardest to keep from crying again but tears still slipped down my cheeks. Sonic looked so helpless like this and I felt as equally helpless now.
"S..sonic...s...say something...please.." I whimpered softly as he just laid there as we were driven off to the hospital. I wanted to hold him again but I could only settle for holding his hand right now. And now, during all this, I could only ask one question.
"What's happened to you Sonic?"
