Ok, i was on a writing spree today and decided to post chapter 2 already. If you were hoping for a combat scene then your getting warmer...keep reading! I promise you wont be discouraged.
"Hey Tails. how are you holding up?" Tails was mostly ok, being the pilot he was, crash landing never really put him at risk, other then bang him up a little, no damage was done, well, except to the plane. Tails seemeed over joyed as all his friends had made it out, but wait someone was missing. "Where's Slash?" Tails asked, this made Shadow instantly turn his head. "Tails, he didnt make it out, he's the one who set off the bomb to kill that, thing, but he must have gotten held up in the fighting." Tails face turned to complete shock, he couldnt beleive that slash was dead, it was inconcievable, he had wormed his way out of everything since they met, but he couldnt get out of this. "Slash..." is was all Tails could say, then he looked up at Shadow , he could tell he was destroyed inside, it seemed like everyone Shadow got close to died, First his friend Maria, now his pal Slash, it seems that Shadow never had a friend who stayed around for long, its what made him one of the hardest people Tails ever met, he never formed bonds easy, hell, it took him a while for start hanging out with Sonic even after the truce. "We know Tails, its hard to belive he's gone..." Knuckles replyed, he hadent said a thing this since he came in, it was Amy's turn to talk "Sonic, you were on the same level as Slash, i mean when he set the bomb, when you left did you see him escape?" that question took time for think, he could remember him leaving, but he couldnt remember what his last words ment. "yea i saw him leave Amy, but before he left he said that "if everything would be in place it wouldn't mean anything if he didnt stop that bug', so i think he went back up to fight that thing, he knew it wouldnt make it out, which is why he said chances were that it was to escape then he would have too." everyone knew what that ment, if he hadnt stayed behind to stall it, it would have made it out and the kingdom, possibly even the world would have been destroyed. So after a long pause Amy said "lets go back to Sonic's house and talk about this there". everyone agreed and the went there, after a while they decided that if they were to even think about wining, the had to figure out what they were up against. Tails gathered some data on them. they were mostly bug like and the had exoskeletins and the eyes and all that, but they also had a system of organs and joints much like mammals, along with a little bit of hair around joints and on the back, Tails couldnt tell what they were, but one thing was for sure, they definatly werent from Mobius. the first thing he thought was that they were from another planet. that had to be for sure. Second, they were mostly insect in body, but had the intelligence of humans from earth. Third and most important, they were mostly blind but they could see heat, which means they can be fooled. After about 2 to 3 weeks, everyone healed up and was 100 again. Mainly because they had the magic of medical advances of humans, since they were smaller in size, they healed faster. There were reports of small towns outside the kingdom that got attacked and some even wiped out. Hordes of these insect monstrosites were evolving aswell. After that about a short 2 month period, they had grown another set of legs, so now they could walk upright. There I.Q improved by 30 and they devolped wings, this was not good, however there eyes had not evolved at all because of the way they nested. They were about to be in for a huge fight...
