Hiyo! Puppeh here, and it's time for me to release the new chapter of TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES! (which I also write off the top of my head)

xXxXxXxXxXxXx

Tails's POV

HAHAH! Look at Sonic, asleep and drooling on that library book. He's such a pig sometimes.

Default POV

Sonic makes a snorting noise. "Hehhh...yeah...shake that money maker..." he mumbles sleepily, dreaming obviously of something naughty.

Sonic's POV

I sit at the bar and chant, "Woot! Woot! Woot!", while ogling the "exotic dancer" in front of me. I give her a 5 dollar bill and root for her s'more. I stare at the dancer's thong-covered bum a bit more before...

"OW!" I shout, 'cause I was hit in the back of my head with something hard. Suddenly I'm back in the living room, with Tails sitting on my head.

"Uh...oops, sorry Sonic, didn't mean to land on you," Tails says nervously.

"Tails, exactly what the FUDGE do you think you're doing!" I nearly scream at him, my quills standing on end in anger. He flies off my head in fear and lands on the floor on all fours.

He brushes himself off carefully and pulls a quill off his behind. "You were making so much noise in your...strip club dream...that I decided to slide down the stair rail to make some noise so it would wake you up," Tails explains, "but I didn't expect to land on your head...Sorry..."

"Eh, it's okay I guess..." I quickly check my watch. 10:15! AAH! "Holy junk! I need to get to Amy's house!" I scream to nobody in particular.

"Amy's house? Why?" Tails asks curiously.

"Um...no reason, I'm just supposed to be over there by 10:30 to fix something."

"Wait. Fixing something for her is a reason."

"Say whaa?" I ask, puzzled at Tails's constant logic.

"Nevermind, don't confuse yourself. And why would you need 15 minutes to get to Amy's house?" Tails asks.

"I just like to take my time, is all," I respond.

"Whatever," Tails says, walking away and adding one of those 'pshaa' gestures. I shrug and walk out the door, making sure, again, to close it this time. I stroll off the porch, ambling in the general direction of Amy's house.

After about half a minute, I say to myself, "I'm bored." I stop and think what to do about this boredom situation. "Ok, I'll just run now." I zoom towards Amy's house, 6204 Pansy Lane. I can barely read the address signs as I blow past them. 6189, 6195, 6201...6206! I stop in my tracks, feeling the wind from behind me hit me like a tsunami. I lose my balance, but I catch myself and stay on my feet. Annoyed that I passed my destination, I turn around and jog 2 houses back, up Amy's driveway, and up to the door. I reach out to knock, but the door swings open and I fall down headfirst, right underneath my friendly pink hedgehog pal's dress. I stare for a few seconds with a perverted grin on my face before I realize just who's undies I was staring at.

"Enjoying the view?" Amy questions, with an even more sarcastic tone than Tails; that's REALLY sarcastic.

All I can answer with is "Uhh..." but then I get up, brush myself off, and say, "Sorry, Amy. I didn't expect to fall...or land...there," I explain. It's just now that I finally see how much Amy has changed. Her curves are more noticeable, her quills are longer, and her voice has gotten to that perfect girl tone, so it doesn't hurt your ears when she says "hi".

"Hello? Earth to Sonic!" Amy says, poking me on the side of my head. I snap back to reality.

"Wha? Oh yeah, hi Amy!" I say mindlessly.

"Yeah ok. Now get in here!" Amy says, dragging me inside her pink-covered home. Pink wallpaper, pink furniture...actually, it's not that bad. It's more magenta than pink, and since the carpet is blue, it really goes well with the constant pinkness of everything else. After being dragged for what seemed to be miles, I notice her computer.

"Wow, this thing is trashed for such a high-tech, up-to-date computer!" I say.

"Yeah, I need all the latest, best stuff for all the game-playing I do," Amy answers, looking her mangled computer up and down. "Especially for Maple Story, Survival Project, Ran Online, Neopets, The Sims 2, and Pogo. Also, I watch my DVDs on this computer so I need a good monitor." (A/N: I play most of those games daily, lol. After about an hour of all of them I spend the rest of the day reading Fanfiction or attempting to draw various scenes from Full Metal Alchemist)

My head is spinning with all the games she just listed off. Half of these I haven't even heard of! But anyway...the more important matter at hand...

"Let me analyze the symptoms of your computer," I use a really smart voice to say these words. I look the computer all around, examining its details and making sure to read between the lines. After about 5 minutes of analysis, I intelligently state that her motherboard has crapped out.

"My motherboard? Oh, JUNK!" Amy shouts, extremely annoyed.

"Yeah...it appears you gotta get a new one."

"No duh, genius," Amy sasses.

"Hey, I'm the one that helped!" I argue.

"Aw, I'm sorry I snapped at you, I was just mad that now I have to spend 200 bucks on another one," Amy says, giving me an apology hug.

"It's okay, Ames," I reply. Amy gives a soft smile, revealing the best teeth I've ever seen.

Suddenly I realize something.

"Amy, isn't it your birthday today?" I ask.

"Yeah! I'm glad you remembered!" she answers.

"Well happy birthday, Amy!" I tell her.

"Thanks, Sonikku," she says, giving me another hug. This time, I return the embrace.

"Listen Amy, I have to go get something. I forgot my uh...tools! Yeah, that's it...tools..."

"Okie dokie, I'll wait right here while you get them."

"Great! Be right back!" I run as fast as I possibly can back to my house, past a few fire hydrants and about 3 blocks down, I arrive at my house. "Good," I think to myself, "it only took 30 seconds to get back." I slam open the door to the house, and it flies off its hinges. "Oh jeez...Tails is gonna be pissed..."

Anyway. I run around the house, searching for my wallet. I find it on the desk in my room. Yess! My credit card is in there. I run down the street, to the closest hardware store, which happens to be the shop Tails owns; Luxury Hardware. It's a huge department store that has any computer part imaginable. Name it and Luxury Hardware has it. I run through the sliding glass doors, avoiding any customers inside, which for some reason today is a lot. I grab the fanciest, most expensive motherboard I can find, and some blue and pink gift wrap.

I run up to the nearest open counter, which Tails is working at. "Sonic! What are you doing here?" he inquires.

"No time to talk. Here's what I wanna buy," I say, handing him the gift wrap and the motherboard.

"Okay whatever. Wait...when did we get gift wrap in this store..." he questions to himself as he rings up my items. I slide my cred. card through the machine, go through the steps, and buy the stuff.

"Thanks buddy!" I yell over my shoulder, running out the slding doors as fast as I can. I run back home, with the door still...gone... and wrap up the motherboard with supersonic speed. I rush back to Amy's house, and so it's been a total of 3 minutes since I left.

"What took you so long?" Amy asks, filing her nails.

"I had trouble finding my tools."

"Well, I better go get my new motherboard..."

"Wait, open your present first," I say, handing her the perfectly wrapped gift.

"Aww, Sonikku, you shouldn't have!"

"Ah, but I did, now didn't I?" I reply gentle-man-ly. Amy unwraps the present, and the look on her face is a mixture of suprise, happiness and disbelief.

"OH SONIC! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!" she yells, hugging me extremely tightly and giving me a kiss on the cheek. I couldn't conceal the blush that creeped across my face right then. She jumps around the room for a minute or two.

"Want me to install it now?" I offer.

"Awww, would you really, Sonikku?"

"Of course."

"All righty then, I'm gonna go make some lunch," Amy replies, walking off to her pink kitchen. I get right to work installing the motherboard. I must have been really unaware when I was reading that book on fizzed out computers, because I had no idea how I was simply installing this with no problem.

After putting in the motherboard, I booted up the computer and put in the drivers disk. I installed the drivers (it took about 10 minutes) when all the sudden, the monitor turned off. I tapped it, but found I couldn't remove my finger! It was being sucked in my the monitor, first my finger, the half my hand, then my whole arm was in the monitor. I was getting freaked out, so I screamed.

"Sonic? You okay in there?" Amy yells from the kitchen.

"Fine, just DANDY!" I holler back, trying to pull my arm out from the computer. This was beginning to really tick me off.

Ooh, I am just TERRIBLE! Don't worry, what happens next will really blow your pants off. Or not. Depends on how you react to surprises. Anyway, review, and since I am going through a fanfiction faze, I should update soon, and this time I mean it.
