"You gotta!"
"No. Shut up."
"You gotta!"
"No. Shut up."
"You gotta!"
"No. Shut up."
"You gotta!"
"No. Shut up."
"You gotta!"
"No. Shut up. Tails, I just got over being stabbed, and you want me to go on some life threatening mission to Walt Disney Land, or somewhere? Hmm... Hmm... HMMM-- NO!" Sonic yelled angrily, handing back the crusty old book that his friend had given him. "Go ask someone else."
"Who would go?"
"Uh... Crap."
Tails smiled, relishing his victory over the forces of logical thinking, and told Sonic, "You may want to pack a few things. All the basics. Toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... Toast... and, uh... I suck at this." Sonic laughed at the kitsune's unintended pun, trying to stuff his Coffee Mate in with his coffee maker, sugar jar, and various other caffeine-related goods. Sonic sat on his suitcase, hopping up and down, trying to close it, for about an hour. Then Tails pushed the edge of the coffee maker that was hanging out into the suitcase, and it snapped shut. Sonic just kind of glared at Tails for a few seconds. Then he grabbed his suitcase, and walked out the door. Tails followed suit. Then, the long, boring, walk from Point A to Point B. If it was a movie, you'd be watching a montage right now. To the Final Fantasy VII battle theme. And they're walking... walking... walking... Sonic stops to look at a shiny rock... and they're walking... Yeah, lets come back to them later.

Shadow was becoming increasingly irritated. Amy had come into his office for... something, and now, for some reason, they were playing Magic: The Gathering. Shadow was irritated because out of the sixteen games that they had played, Amy had won... Sixteen of them. He had a sucky hand at the moment. Then he heard a voice. "Bog Imp." He turned, and saw a human... male(?) Looking at his hand. Shadow figured 'What the heck? I've only got 5 Life left.' and played the card. "Attack with it." Shadow, again, followed the strangely clothed man's advice. He was perplexed that Amy didn't try to block the attack. Now they were at a tie. "Play the Lava Axe on her Giant Octopus, then attack with the other Lava Axe." Shadow did as he was told. Now, Amy had no monsters, and 4 Life less than Shadow. Now Amy was irritated. "No fair. You got help from that lady!" The man(?) seemed upset about the gender confusion, and said, "I am a MAN, you stupid girl!" He then muttered something, and Amy flew against the wall. Shadow was stunned. "You... have to... teach me... how to... do that..." The man(?) smiled, then said, "Only if you can tell me my name." Shadow took a good look at the man, before replying
"Grandpa?"
"No, Stupid! You know who I am!"
"...Grandpa."
"No. Its me. Kefka!"
"...Grandpa Kefka!"
Kefka gave in. "Yes. Grandpa Kefka." He could tell that his temporary employer wouldn't make his job easy. "Do you have the target I'm supposed to eliminate yet?"
"Yes. Yes, I do, Grandpa." Shadow replied, handing Kefka a small portfolio. Kefka flipped through the papers, and it was quite obvious that he was just skimming for useful information. "Whats his battle pattern?"
"I'm sorry--wha?"
"His battle pattern. You know, the order his attacks rotate in?"
"Uh... we got this..." Shadow replied, handing Kefka a video tape, and pointing to a VCR. Kefka inserted the tape, and watched Shadow's viewscreen. It was footage of the fight with Sephiroth. Kefka stared onward in awe, then shock. What it would have taken him hours to do to Sephiroth, his 'target' had done in a matter of seconds. The footage ended. Kefka turned to Shadow. "I see why he is a problem. I'm going to need help." "No problem, hang on..." Shadow replied, grabbing his phone and dialing a number. "Yeah, its me. I'm going to take you up on your offer." He read something from a strategy guide for Final Fantasy VII. "Yeah, Safer this time. Tails can't fly infinitely, but Safer Sephiroth can." Shadow nodded, and confirmed a few more things, then hung up.
"You wanted help, you got help."
Kefka was happy to recieve it, even if it was from 'Captain Hair', as most other SquareEnix villains called him.

Sonic, and Tails had been walking for what seemed like ages, when they stopped at a tree for a break. Sonic was getting some coffee. Well, he was looking for a place to plug in his coffee maker. On the tree they stopped under. Yeeaahh... Tails was taking a nap in one of the tree's branches. It was a nice night. No bugs, no roadkill, no filthy hippies... Sonic looked up, to see if there was a plug for his coffee in the branches. Then, he felt something. A hand, rubbing down his neck, then down his shoulder. The hand's touch was cold. Then, a familiar voice. "Hey, Sonic." Sonic whipped around, and swung his (metal) right arm at her. Tails woke up when he heard a sort of metallic clang. Sonic was laughing. "That was a dirty trick..." complained Amy, rubbing her mouth in pain. Tails saw her, and dove for her. He pinned her arms to the ground, and was about to beat her petit little face into the ground, when she let out a wry smile. "Tails, I had no idea you thought of me that way..." Tails then gasped, realising what the scene must have looked like, and jumped back off of Amy, with a look of utter disgust on his face, yelling a lot of gibberish. I only picked up the first thing he said: "I didn't mean anything like that, what the--" then he just seemed to gibber on until she got up, and grabbed Sonic. Tails rushed to stop her, but tripped. Amy stared at her weak foe. "Don't worry. I won't hurt him." She smiled. "Yet." She vanished, along with Sonic. Tails growled, and muttered a few obcscenities. He couldn't believe he fell for that old trick, after all his years of wasting away in front of the TV, watching "Full Metal Alchemist". He pounded the ground with his fists. Then, he remembered. Sonic still had the book. Tails laughed. Amy was in for far more than what she bargained for.
--------------------
No she wasn't. Amy smiled, sitting on her bed, flipping through the pages of the book. Sonic looked down at her from the holding cell she had stuck him in. He didn't know what was more humiliating, being captured, or the fact that there was a sign next to the cell he was in that said it was "For Pets Only." Is that what he was, now? A pet? Sonic scoffed, and tried to read a spell from the page Amy was on, but the text was too small. Sonic muttered a few obscenities before the book hit him in the face. "That book is full of fairy tales." Sonic sat down, and skimmed through the first few pages. It was in a strange language that he couldn't understand, so he simply took her word for it. He tossed the worthless book to the side, and sat down, trying to assess the situation. But, being the addict he was, he was dependant on coffee if his brain was to function properly, and it was very apparent that he wasn't going to get any coffee. Sonic eventually stopped giving himself a headache, and leaned his head back against the wall. He fell asleep almost instantly without coffee.

Site was tending to the "guests" as he should have been, when he noticed something on the counter. Upon realising what the object was, a book, he gasped, and dropped the snack tray he was carrying.
"Crap... I gave them the wrong book..."
--------------------
To be continued...
I made the Sephiroth fans not hate me no mores, but now, I need to tell you the difference between "Activist" and "Hippie". Activists are cool. They say they are going to do something to help the environment, and they do it. Hippies are not cool. They say "Hey, we're savin' the environment, maaaaaaaaaaaaaan..." But all they do is sit around smoking weed and smelling like crap, and dead skunks.
Thank you for letting me clear that up.
