A/N So Tails and Fiona are finally together. Wow that took awhile, I'm glad people weren't annoyed by the slow burn love story. Thanks for the support. Now I need to get my other plans and stuff. So let's go and get on with chapter 30!
After learning the tragic end of Sonic the hedgehog and fitting all the dots together Tails explained the story to everyone. His story after the attack, his search for help and eventually finding that to be impossible.
Shadow and Silver were especially shocked to hear Sonic had come across their walled off town and never came to the town and learned he'd be safe there. Shadow particularly gave off signs of some kind of distress; he hid it well enough to hide exactly what he was feeling. Tails guessed it was guilt.
As he continued with more and more details he had to reach the sad conclusion and explain that the hole on the exterior of the building was where Eggman blasted in to surprise Sonic.
Of course Nicole knew all of this since she had, in a fraction of a second watched all the logs the first time she was put into the computer and had made the subtitles for the videos.
The group was silent thinking about what happened. Taken down without a fight, it was no way for a hero like Sonic to go.
"Just another reason to pay Eggman pay" Shadow growled finally breaking the silence, his voice laced with hate.
"We cannot allow our anger to blind us, but yes, when it is all over and he is in our custody, there will be no mercy" Blaze explained her own anger actually making an appearance. A low growl escaped her throat surprising them all further.
"That will come with time" Tails agreed even more determined than before.
Fiona then spoke "But for now we should cool off, this news will effect our thinking. Taking a bit to just chill out and clear our heads will help"
"That's a good idea" Tails leaned to her and quietly praised making her smile.
Silver nodded in agreement "Ya, what'd you always say after I got frustrated when I couldn't get stronger with my powers Shadow?"
"Take a breath andcalm down" the mentor smiled slightly glad he remembered that lesson.
"Then that is what we will do" Tails nodded.
They nodded in agreement and split up in different directions.
Silver happened to be next to Blaze was walking alongside her. He still looked shaken by the news he learned, He'd always dreamed of meeting Sonic and now he was gone. Don't get him wrong, he loved being able to meet and learn from him but he always claimed to never be a hero. Silver always wanted to believe he was but he wondered that if Shadow wasn't a hero what was one that claimed to be one be like.
Besides all that Silver grew up learning of Sonic and his friends, they were amazing and courageous., completely unstoppable. That is until two years ago.
"Silver?" Blazes voice snapped him from his sad thoughts.
"Huh, I'm sorry, were you talking I zoned out" he apologized.
"No, you just seem to be taking the news hard" the cat clearly was concerned and wanted to make him smile.
"Well… didn't you know him and his friends… aren't you taking it hard?"
"Of course I am, but I have faced many deaths from my world. You get used to it" the cat said clearly not happy she could say that.
Silver was quiet again head down.
"Do not let this demoralize you Silver, we're all still together, we can defeat Eggman" Blaze encouraged getting a little closer to him.
"How, he killed everyone including Sonic, they were all heroes, battle hardened and years of experience. We're fewer in number and I'm still green as grass" Silver asked stopping and turning to look at her fear in his eyes.
"Don't put yourself down like that, you have done amazing things in the short time we've known eachother" her voice stern truly believing that.
He shook his head "Only after someone told me to do it…. And I nearly died"
"Yes…. That was… difficult to watch" the cat sighed looking away.
"Ya it was even more difficult to live through" Silver huffed joking lightly.
"I don't believe it's funny, I didn't enjoy seeing you cringe from small movements"
Silver smiled but said "It wasn't that bad, I had someone pretty watching over me" not the exquisite way of saying it but it earned him a blush from the cat.
"Well… thank you, I… your welcome" the cat was actually taken off guard.
Silver smiled amused by her blush and looked around trying to find something less depressing to talk about "Soooo… got an idea to pass the time?"
"Perhaps we could just talk?" Blaze suggested not fully sure.
Silver agreed guessing they could find something to do after walking a bit. He was totally stumped for what to say.
Finally Blaze asked, quite suddenly "Back at the orphanage, was there anyone who you liked being around?"
The question caught him off guard and forced him to recompose before answering "Uhhh… well I guess there were a few, I like the caretakers, and one or two of the kids my age, the younger kids liked me"
Blaze could already guess why the younger kids liked Silver. In general little kids looked up to older kids but Silver was also a really nice guy and his personalitywas light hearted, encouraging and supportive.
"Who were these lucky few who decided to be your friends?" wanting to know about the one or two kid she considered to be the smart kids.
"Oh well another boy who was half a year younger than me. He was a rabbit and came to the orphanage much…. Later than me, he was old enough to understand what was happening to him and remember his parents faces"
"They abandoned him!?" Blaze suddenly stopped turned to fully face him.
"No, well sort….. the dad did leave and well….. his mom was sick a lot and she passed away from it" Silver explained hastily defending the mother.
The cat calmed down hearing that, atleast he had one parents who cared or wanted to take responsibility…. Although it may have been because she simply couldn't handle her conscious if she left him too. She decided not to ask.
"And the other?"
"The other was a girl a few months older than me and was a dog, she was also left on the doorstep like me. She had a hard time talking to people and the only reason I was able to talk to her was because she was bullied a little bit. I found her scared and crying one day and with… about an hour of trying to gain a little bit of trust she finally spoke to me and we became friends" Silver explained smiling warmly remembering the girls face.
Blaze smiled seeing yet again he was a good hearted person.
"That was very kind of you, I'm sure she appreciated the effort you put in to show her you weren't there to hurt her"
Silver just shrugged humble as ever "Ah I just wanted to see if she was ok that's all" he shied away avoiding eye contact.
The cat would have continued with the praise but found his humility admirable and cute. Maybe that was why she'd found it easy to talk to him.
Silver just shrugged looking back at her "I'm sure you've helped more people than me, I mean you were the protector of the sol emeralds. I bet tons of people wanted them and would have done bad things with them back in your world"
Blaze frowned, he was right but she also eventually failed, the evidence of her failure all around them.
He noticed and realized his mistake "Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to…"
"No I know what you meant, I just feel guilty for having my guard down. I dropped my guard and wasn't ready for an attack and now your home has burned"
Silver was quick with his comeback "Blaze nobody would expect you to be on guard every second of your life, that's pretty much impossible, what happened was out of your control and nobody blames you"
"But I do" Blaze snapped back refusing to believe this wasn't all her fault.
"Blaze, please just calm down"
"No! I was trained to protect those emeralds and I didn't! I'm not like those people who want them for bad, they can fail and fail and fail over and over again and simply try again. If I fail even once they would take full advantage and use them to hurt people, and somebody finally did and look what happened!" Blaze was suddenly yelling and hysterical, very unlike her. Perhaps this had been bubbling up inside her.
Silver would have said something but he didn't know what to say to that. She was right, she could defend them emeralds forever but she only needed to fail once to make it all useless.
"Blaze all I know is that if we don't get them back and kick Eggman's… well…. Ass, then he'll just keep using them to do bad. What's worse, regain your emeralds back and continue to protect them and save whoever hasn't been killed or give up and let them die?" He sounded a little like he was pleading but it was uneeded.
"Silver" she smiled ""I'm not giving up, I'm here and fighting along side you and everyone else right? No, I just regret what that I allowed this all to happen"
Silver sighed lightly smiling "Good, I wouldn't want you to leave"
"That is very kind of you to say, thank you" she smiled feeling really good hearing him say that, he wanted her around. It made her blush a little.
Silver was glad to see her smile and asked "So…. What now?"
"Perhaps we could just walk?" oddly she felt like that's all she wanted, to just walk with him, she wouldn't even mind if it was quietly.
Elsewhere right after everyone split up…
Scourge walked off and realized Nicole had silently followed him by his side. He wasn't sure why she was so quiet, she knew Sonic had died, she watched the videos already and made subtitles. Why had she been ok up until now? Maybe it was some computer thing where she blocked her emotions for the time being.
Admittedly he had been quiet too, he wasn't sure why.
"Are you ok?" to his surprise he hadn't said that, she had,
"Why would I not be ok? Sonic was never my friend, he was my rival…. Hell I wanted him dead" he said absolutely sure that would anger her.
"I know but… you're quiet? If that were true, I'd have expected some…. Gloating?" she seemingly asked, with a side of caution.
"I knew I'd get my ass kicked if I did that" he felt that was obvious.
Both were silent for awhile until Nicole asked "I'm scared…"
He looked away, it was hard to admit he was scared too, but felt he had to say something "Don't worry, everyone can protect you"
She shook her head sadly "No, I'm scared about you?"
"Scared of me, think I'm gonna betray you all?" he normally wouldn't be angry but coming from her, someone he thought trusted him, it hurt him deeply.
She gasped "No, I didn't mean I'm scared of you, I'm scared….. for you" she looked down avoiding his gaze.
"Scared for me, I'm one of the most capable on this team?"
"You don't understand, what if…. Well…. I can't help but feel you're gonna die" she said stuttering her way trough.
"We all could die, go cry to all of them, I'm the most expendable here. My entire life is right is right here. There is nowhere else I'm wanted, nowhere else I'm needed and nowhere else my worthless life would be useful" he yelled, he didn't need her doubting him and it made him angry that she of all people cared for such a bad guy like him.
"Scourge you aren't worthless, we want you here…"
"Of course you do, I'm just another body, just another fighter. If we survive through this they won't want me here any longer and then I will have nowhere to go. Even if I could get to Moebius, why would I? It'd be a waste of time, I have no friends back there, and my throne has been taken from me and I'm officially banished. I have no destination or goal after this is all over"
"You won't leave, I'll convince them to let you stay!" she said hating the idea of him leaving.
"Me leave? They'll all go back to where they want to be when this is over, there will be no one to stay with. Tails might be the only one who stays here and he wouldn't want me here for obvious reasons. Fiona won't want me with her ever again after what I did. Silver and Shadow will go back to their people and Blaze will go back to the Sol universe"
"And what about me?" she asked staring at him intently.
"I don't know, probably stay here I guess, this is your home and it has all the power rings you'll ever want" he said looking away hating the look she was giving him.
"No then you can stay if I'm here!" she made a desperate smile hoping that'd be enough.
"And explain Tails', like he'd let me stay"
"I'm sure you could do something to gain his trust, they let you walk around freely right, that has to count for something?" she frowned, he wouldn't look at her anymore.
"You know how this is, I have nowhere to go, why would I run from the only people protecting me, why I would run from the only thing that could keep me alive? " he asked feeling like this was gonna go in a circle.
"That doesn't mean you don't deserve friends" Nicole whimpered.
"Oh ya and who's my friends here, I've hurt half of the people here somehow including you" he finally turned to face her then froze at what he saw.
Nicole was looking now trying to hide her face once he turned and looked like she was crying her shoulders shuddering slightly.
"Why are you crying" he asked trying to keep his tough guy voice up.
She sniffed, he had no idea she could even cry, he went with that as why he suddenly paused.
"I thought I was your friend" she whimpered.
"Why would you want me as a friend. I've stabbed people in the back, nearly killed several of your friends in the past. I abandoned my most loyal friend and girlfriend and killed people" he listed out his sins, the first one bringing feelings of regret.
She just continued to look down finally whimpering out "People can change" a tear escaped her eye and fell until passing the PDA in her hand making it disappear.
"You don't actually believe that do you?" he asked dismissing her statement.
"But look at Tails, he became that other Tails for awhile!"
"Just means any change is temporary" Scourge huffed.
Suddenly Nicole look at him again and pointed at him "You have no faith in yourself, it's so easy to be the mean bad guy. You wanted to be just like Sonic remember, you wanted to be better then him. You wanted to be a good guy, but you were pushed away and decided being bad was easier!" she accused.
"What are you talking about, I tried to steal Sonics life because I wanted all that attention, I wanted people following me like a true leader, I wanted to prove that I was better than Sonic because no one is better than me even my universal twins" he growled not taking her getting in his face.
"I think that's your excuse. You hated your life, you wanted a better one, filled with friends and doing good. You just have too much pride to say it" the lynx wasn't backing down, which admittedly gave her some respect from her yelling opponent.
Suddenly Scourges voice disappeared hearing her do that "No… I"
His sudden loss for words made Nicole stop crying and look surprised, did she actually…
"No I…. that's not why I… I…" his accusing finger slowly dropped unsure of himself slouched sighing.
"Scourge…. ?" she sheepishly asked.
"Can I tell you something?" he asked quietly.
"What…. What is it?"
"It's how I became King of Moebius"
She stared him quietly waiting for him to tell her.
"My father…. He was…. an asshole, he never really cared about me. Hell he didn't care about Moebius either, he just partied and did whatever he wanted. He had ditched my mother once I was born and he never raised me, servants raised me in his stead"
"He got rid of your mom?" her tone meaning she wanted to know exactly how he got rid of her.
"I don't know what happened to her…. I don't want to know, all I know is she was gone and the closest thing to a mom I ever had was a servant to took care of me"
The lynx frowned, what a terrible way to grow up.
"Well I tried to hang out with dad when I could. I'd try to ask him if he'd play with me, try to subtly tell him I was going to bed to maybe have him tuck me in…. I was so desperate sometimes I offered to join him when he had to listen to citizens problems, just sit on his lap and listen to how everything worked…. He never let me" Scourge sighed.
He continued "He made a lot of enemies, but I had good security, he was paranoid like that in his later years. But by then…. He was nobody to me, he wasn't my dad, he was an asshole I had to live with. So when I was finally old enough to lead his kingdom…. I found him when he was alone and too drunk to defend himself" his fist clenched tighter than Nicole had ever seen pretty much implying what he did to his dad. But a tear escaped his eye.
"I killed him, then made it look like he died in his sleep and I became the new leader…. But…."
Nicole quietly asked at his stop "Do you regret it?"
He looked down the rage completely gone "I…. I don't know"
"You don't know? If he was so horrible then why regret anything?"
"I don't know… I just… sometimes I feel like I'd be different if I didn't do it" he sighed.
Nicole simply stared at him for a minute and was about to say something when Scourge cut her off "So I'm dangerous, I don't know why you of all people would keep wanting to be around me"
"I already told yo…"
He cut her off again "I know, I still don't know why you follow me around, why you trust me, why you let me carry you into battle. I'm an evil bastard who killed his dad in cold blood, backstabbed many of my 'friends' and left behind the only truly loyal person I ever knew" he panted finding it hard to not yell at her but he also wanted to keep his cool.
"Then look at you…" he paused for a moment actually taking a look at her "You're a good person, I don't know much about you before I pretended to be Sonic but you've always wanted what's best for everyone. You had all the abilities to be a bad person and control that entire city but you didn't. You took verbal abuse and even being kicked out and still sought no revenge. Why follow an asshole like me, why…. WHY!?" his confusion finally making him yell his last word.
She jumped at his sudden volume, but hearing all he said she couldn't help but feel good. He actually knew about her difficulty of living in Mobotropolis, it even sounded like he somewhat admired her self-control. Had the idea of betraying them all and making them pay crossed her mind, yes…. But only for a nanosecond… but for an AI like herself it felt like a long time. To make it worse, it crossed her mind several times, yet she never acted upon it.
"Because I have seen the good in you. You saved me from the invisible robot back in the factory" she smiled.
"It beat the crap out me, I wanted revenge, not to mention you were also my only chance of getting out of that place alive" he huffed looking away to avoid her gaze.
"Then what about when you saved me at Tails' bases" Nicole said, he couldn't possibly deny that one, she'd heard from the others that he went back for her, in fact he was the one who brought up the fact they forgotten about her.
Scourge paused and gulped thinking "I… "
"You are a good person Scourge, I've seen it" she kindly smiled. The lynx left him with those thoughts walking away to give him space and time to think. Despite his yelling she felt she'd made him think.
Elsewhere…
Tails walked with Fiona, the two heading to the old workshop.
"So do we have even a fraction of a plan?" Fiona asked.
Tails sighed "Nope, not even close. All I got going is the task of taking down Metal Sonic. At best I have half a plan to do that. I got the railgun nearly completed, as for how I'm going to hit him…. That's a whole-nother story"
Fiona just sighed "We don't have much left so a distraction is the best I can think of…. Maybe…. Maybe we can get Shadow or Scourge to distract it thn you take a shot?"
Tails could only nod in agreement "It's the best we can do, but if we'd want the distraction to work we'd have to make a lot of trouble, I'd need to be pretty far away so he doesn't see it coming and if he's tipped off at all even a second before I shoot his speed will allow him to escape. If he escapes, we won't get a chance to take him down again"
That was some heavy odds against them, the one advantage they had was they knew of Metal Sonics existence and some of his abilities now. Not to mention they wouldn't be taken off guard like before. Even with that advantage there was a lot fighting against them and the slightest tip off would end it all.
"Well first, we need to finish the thing, maybe then we can get a good idea of what we can do" Fiona suggested.
"You got me there" he nodded "Wanna be my lab assistant again?"
"I got nothing better to do" she shrugged wanting to help him out "But I think you forgot "Pretty assistant"
Tails just rolled his eyes with an amused smile. He had a more flattering word but kept quiet leading her inside the workshop.
"So just how far are you rom finishing?"
"If I don't get disturbed I could get it all finished by the end of the day" Tails explained.
The vixen nodded approaching the work table "So how's it gonna work?" even though most of the science would fly over her head she knew talking about would him and atleast make him smile.
"Well it's gonna work like most railguns, but to keep it compact it will be made of three parts. The middle part will include the trigger, firing mechanism and all that jazz, that part will be my morph gun. That's the hardest part, getting the morph gun to the new configuration" he explained pulling the morph gun from the table. It looked different now, pieces ripped out and other pieces added in different places.
"I can see why that's hard" making it change into it's different forms must be hard enough, adding another that is supposed to attach to two other pieces couldn't be easy "If anyone can do it I know you can" she smiled.
"Thanks" he smiled "The next piece is relatively the easiest" he pulled out a long barrel with a deployable tripod at the end "This barrel will trap the gasses and electricity needed to send out the bullet at the speed needed. The gases are volatile and moving could cause it to explode so this has to be a sniper weapon"
She nodded, meaning if they wanted to shoot Metal sonic he'd need to stay relatively in front of the shooter.
"Lastly is the shoulder mount" he explained. He pulled out what looked like the right shoulder plate and chest plate of his armor, only now it had a backpack looking attachment that sat around the right side of the upper back.
"This part will hold the gas, conduct the electricity and protect my shoulder from the massive kickback.. Without this one shot would dislocate my arm, maybe even tear it right off in one shot. It will deploy up and around my shoulder. A small piston will take in the gasses and when I fire it will push them through the gun connect with the electricity at the barrel and send the bullet out" he hoped the simplified version wouldn't confuse her as he looked up.
"So pretty much this will only work with your armor" she nodded getting it fairly well "I assume you can get a hold of these gases?"
"Yes fortunately I can do that, that's simple" he smiled.
"Great, seems things are going our way, even if it's admittedly small" she smiled back.
"Yup, so how exactly are you gonna assist me?" he smirked, he knew she was here for more than just to help.
"I could give a reason to be motivated" she smirked back.
"And tell me what could motivate me more than saving our world?"
"Hmmm… how about…. Something from me?" she crossed her arms smartly.
"I can only imagine what that might be" he had a few ideas, some innocent, some not so innocent. Although the less innocent ones he couldn't accept anyway, like he said he wanted to build trust with her and those would take a lot more trust.
He was bumped from his thoughts when he noticed Fiona had made her way behind him and said "But for now I'll just offer something like this" her hands became massaging his shoulders.
Tails had to admit her hands were nice to the touch and he let out a sigh.
Fiona just smiled glad he was letting her do that after a few moments he said "Thanks" he looked back and smiled at her "I think I'll work ok after that"
Fiona just nodded and leaned against the workbench as he began work. The quickly found a system where he'd ask for a tool and she'd get it. Once in awhile he'd tease by making up a name and watch as she angrily looked around for the non-existant tool eventually laughing to make her realize what was happening. It was actually kinda fun.
It was actually pretty great, almost no words were actually spoken besides Tails commands for tools, the curses from a tricked fox and laughs.
It seemed after everything that happened, the betrayal, her being with Scourge, his leaving of the team, their not so great reunion , working together again and finally them coming to terms with their feelings it was finally good for them again. They could finally sped time together again and just not talk and feel like they'd had an entire conversation. In a way they were stronger than ever.
Tails finally felt calm and had she even attempted to touch him back when they met he'd have had to control himself from breaking her arm, but now, now he just couldn't even think about that.
"Thanks for the help" Tails suddenly said.
"I'm not done here" Fiona chuckled.
The kitsune shook his head "No I mean…. For finding me, giving me a purpose, coming back into my life and especially for telling me how it all really went down. For…. Keeping me from turning back into that other me when I lost mom again"
He couldn't see because he continued to work and Fiona was to the side, but she was smiling "Your welcome kid"
He turned his head with a smile as well "I'm not a kid anymore"
She just shrugged with a playful smile "Oh ya? Prove it" she dared.
"Well look at me, what do I look like?" he smirked.
She scanned him for a moment before crossing her arms and leaning more on one leg "Well if I had to take my best guess I'd say you look very kissable"
Tails gave her an annoyed stare "Really?"
"Oh I've thought many times about kissing that adorable face of yours" she cooed pinching his cheeks clearly trying to annoy him now, some payback for his fake tool names.
He lightly pushed her off him and crossed his arms looking annoyed again "I'm not adorable either"
"O-k, so what would you describe yourself as?" she challenged with a smirk.
He took a deep breath puffed out his chest "How about, handsome?" sweeping back his hair only to have it go right back its normal look.
It was hard for the female to not laugh at the male. Honestly, it was even more cute to see him do something like that, the only way to make it better was if he had a stool to lift one leg up onto.
"Maybe" she ended up saying with a roll of her eyes. But she had an idea "So how would you describe me?"
He got back to his normal stance began thinking scanning her for a moment before finally giving a smile "Beautiful"
"Aren't you just the sweet talker" she said back approaching him and wrapped her arms around his shoulders.
"I've always been a good at talking, just needed to work on the sweet part"
She chuckled at this and said "Well such a good learner, I think you deserve a reward"
"I like rewards" he smirked feeling her lean in closer.
About an inch from eachother he could feel her breath but it they both went stiff hearing a knock from outside.
Both remembered their deal, they'd keep things on the down low so broke apart regained their composures. Both took a moment to take a deep breath and Tails went back to the work bench while Fiona went to answer the door.
Seeing who it was she found the dark hedgehog waiting "Oh hey Shad, what's up?"
"Nothing, wanted to speak to Tails"
"Well come on in" she stepped aside and allowed him to walk past and closed the door.
Tails turned "Hey Shadow, what'cha need?"
The hedgehog got right to the point "Well first I wanted to see how the railgun is doing. It was pretty much the one bit of equipment we brought with us besides your car"
"Well it's actually almost done, I can easily make the gas I need to complete the reaction, but besides that it's pretty much all finished. Well besides some small stuff I can get done by the end of the day" he hoped the explanation was enough for Shadow.
"Good, but now we need to think about how to use it?" Shadow thought aloud looking at the three pieces on the workbench.
That…. I'm still trying to figure out" Tails sighed then explained "Metal Sonic will probably be too fast to hit him if he knows it's coming., he'll need to be distracted somehow and relatively still"
The other male nodded in agreement, only Scourge and I can match his speed, so perhaps we're the only ones who can keep him still"
"It's gonna be dangerous…. And…. Chaos forbid he figures out what's going on and puts one of you in front of me. Hopefully not though, I will have to be far away in a sniping position" once again explaining his plan like he had for Fiona.
"You think that's our best shot, you sit far away, me or Scourge take that super powered bastard and hope we can keep him still long enough for you to make one shot that if it misses we may never get a chance like that again?" Shadow asked skeptically.
"You have a better idea, it can somehow nullify Silvers powers, is fast enough to avoid yours unless you get into point blank range, we don't even know if it has some emergency defense if you pull that off. It's immune to small arms fire which is all we have bbesides this gun. Blazes powers won't hurt it, it's metal is probably got a high melting point too. This is the most powerful and unexpected thing we have" Tails summed it all up.
Shadow just sighed, he knew he was right. It was just healthy to have skepticism and an open mind to other ideas, if there were any.
"Alright Tails, we got nothing else left and if we want to make our mark and show Eggman we are not backing down" the hedgehog nodded his head.
"Wait, wait" Fiona cut in "Do we want that attention so recently after he decimated us?"
Tails thought for a moment "I know you have concerns Fi, but if we sit back he only gets stronger, and with nothing else to work with besides this gun we might as well do what we can"
The fox sighed looking a little scared, the attack was still fresh in all their minds. It didn't help that Fiona and Tails had told each other their feelings, she was scared to lose Tails now. She wondered why Tails seemed so confident to move forward, even Shadow showed a little restraint. It worried her that Tails was still carrying some revenge in his heart for the loss of his mom.
"If you feel it's right I'll follow you" she said a little hesitance in her voice. From Shadows eyebrow raising he caught it, but Tails clearly ignored it didn't hear it.
"Great, let everyone else know about the plan. We'll head out tomorrow, we'll have to make some noise to attract Eggmans attention, but we can't do it near Mobotropolis, or he'll search the city" Tails said excitedly getting back to work.
Shadow and Fiona nodded and left to let everyone know. Both knew this was either gonna work, or things would go horribly wrong.
Alright so not much happened this chapter, but I guess that ending says the next will get to some action. I hope this chapters characters interactions were ok because I was especially iffy with Scourge and Nicole.
Anyway let me know and sorry about the wait blah blah, explaining explaining whatever. Hope you like tell me what you think and remember…
Live long and prosper
