Another Chapter, Yeay!

Hmm, do I own Sonic or related characters? Let me check… -runs around looking through files- of coarse not!

Tails sat in the same chair she had been secluded to for the past 3 days. The week was over and tucker had said he would check out her leg when he came back from whatever he did during the day. She had very much enjoyed meeting him. As it turned out, he was only a few months older then she is, and was pretty much just as smart. They had been exchanging mechanical tips when they weren't telling more about themselves and Tails really started feeling close to the guy.

Then, Tails heard the sliding door open and saw tucker walk in. As usual, he was very sweaty and was slightly panting, but just slightly.

"So, ready to take a look at that leg?" Tucker asked.

"More then you could know," Tails replied.

"Well, don't be surprised if it smells really really bad," he started, "It was too broken to be taken out for a breather."

"Oh, ok…" Tails said. She hadn't had a broken limb in her life, but she guessed it smelling made since. Since it was like putting a giant sock there for days without changing it.

Tucker started walking toward her after he had grabbed a towel and wiped himself off. He put on the near by disinfectant liquid and began to unwrap the wound. As he had said, a nasty stench diffused through the room as he did so. When he was done, he put on some rubber gloves and started pressing in different locations, asking if it hurt. She was glad to say none of them did.

"Okay, well then let's get you into the bath tub, while I disinfect the house," he said with a smile.

He watched as she attempted to stand up, her leg gave out from not being used to being walked on in a while, but he caught her and helped her all the way until she was sitting on the side of the tub, he then left, muttering something about the smell of rotting flesh. Tails turned on the hot water and was surprised to see it instantly turn hot. Odd he would have that great of a water system out here. She got it to be the right temperature and when it filled, she slid in.

The warm water felt like heaven on her body. She made sure to scrub everywhere, since her leg turned out not to be the only placed that had picked up a bit of a smell. After she was done, she let the water drain and looked at herself in the small mirror. Two weeks hadn't changed her face much, but she could tell that it was obvious she wasn't a boy. She had known this would come, ever since she had had traces of a difference about a month ago. She wondered how she was going to tell all the others when she got back from the test… Oh wait, the test!

Tails walked out of the bathroom and found Tucker.

"Tucker, I have to go, I still need to finish my Freedom Fighter test I told you about," She saw his ears go down, even though his facial expression didn't change, "why don't you come with me? There's no reason to stay out here alone."

Tucker seemed to be debating something in his head. He looked torn, but finally decided to make a decision.

"You know, your right, I'll go with you back to wherever you live, we can leave as soon as you want as far as I'm concerned."

"Well, I got to go as soon as possible," Tails explained.

"I'll go get some things," Tucker said as he left to go pack.

(In The Knothole)

"I wonder whats taking him so long?" Sonic said to Sally.

"It hasn't been that long, besides, I'm sure he's on his way back this very instant. We all can't be as fast as you, Sonic," She replied.

"Well, Tails was probably the closest you got to that, something must have snagged him."

"If you say so."

Well, I know that one was shorter then the others, but please hold off on throwing the rotten fruit.

Anyway, tell me if you have any concerns, or perhaps even something I could do better. Constructive criticism is good for the soul.
