Trick and capture chapter 3.

(O.k., I am really REALLY sorry about the long wait. I just moved, and my computer has been acting up. With that said, it might be a bit before I get the next chapter up, my computer is showing signs of biting the dust. If it does, I will have to get a new one and that might take a while. So, if it takes up to a month or two for chapter 4, you know why. I'm really sorry, but if my computer is nice, then I will keep up with my about every 2 weeks. Enjoy, and please review when you are done.)

It was a wonderful day. The grass was green, and everyone was happy to be alive. The flowers were a beautiful pinks, yellows, and reds

A little boy and a little girl came skipping down a path toward a meadow. They were going to pick flowers to bring home to their mother. Everything was just lovely.

The little girl bent down to pick the beautiful flowers. "Aren't these flowers very pretty? Mommy will love them so!" She cried.

The little boy nodded. "They are very nice. Mommy will love them. Oh look, there goes Spot!"

Both of the kids looked up to see their spotted pet dog running after a cat.

"Oh dear!" cried the little girl. "Don't chase that poor little cat, Spot! You might hurt him, and that isn't very nice to hurt someone else!"

The boy nodded, and they both yelled, "STOP! SPOT! STOP!"

(Just kidding! Are all of you bored now? I was in a Evil mood. Here's the real chapter. Promise.)

Tails pulled the tornado into a tight 90 degree turn as he flew into Station square. There he was: Eggman. Tails growled under his breath. Eggman picked a REALLY bad day to attack, and was now going to pay for it.

With expert piloting skills, he flew around Eggman and then charged him, head on. "Eggman!!!" He screamed the top of his lungs in rage.

To the fox's surprise, the mad scientist didn't look his way, or even acknowledge him. Then, to the kits shock, he flew right threw him.

Tails quickly pulled a 180 degree turn and faced him again. He then noticed something he hadn't seen before; Eggman was translucent.

Tails stared for almost a minute before he realized what he was looking at. It was a hologram. The fox noticed the hologram coming from a small box on the side of a nearby building.

He carefully aimed the tornados laser gun at the box, and released the trigger. The box blew up and the hologram disappeared.

There wasn't even any damage to the city. The explosions must have been fake. Tails couldn't believe it. He had been tricked! But why would Eggman set up such a hologram?

A red figure come charging toward him, trying to get his attention. The fox quickly, carefully, and skillfully landed on the ground. He barely had time to turn the engine off before the echidna was right next to him.

"You stopped Eggman all by yourself?" Knuckles stared at him with new respect. He had always thought the fox was only good for building and repairing mechanics. He had never even thought the fox could even fight without his plane.

Tails shook his head, slipping out of the plane and to the ground. "It wasn't Eggman. It was just a hologram, Knuckles." He ducked his head in shame. He still couldn't believe that he had fallen for it. Sonic wouldn't have

Suddenly something occurred to him. What if someone had just wanted him out of the house? But was there that was important?

He suddenly felt a wave of guilt; SONIC HAD BEEN THERE ALL ALONE!

"KNUCKLES, we have to go! NOW!" He quickly started to climb back into his plane, but was stopped by Knuckles grabbing his ankle.

"Why? What's wrong?"

Tails tried to free his ankle from the echidna's iron grip. Every second he wasted was a second Sonic might be in danger. "I think someone just put up the hologram just to get me out of the house!"

The hot-tempered Echidna looked confused. "Why would they want you out? What is so important about your house that they want you out of it for 15 minutes?"

Tails groaned. He didn't have time for this. "Sonic! Sonic was in the house, defenseless, and all alone! At least until Amy got there, but I had to leave him alone f—

Knuckles cut him off. "What are you waiting for, then?! Lets go!" The echidna barked, quickly letting go of the eight-year-olds ankle. He jumped into the planes backseat. Tails quickly climbed back into the pilot seat.

The engines of the Tornado roared to life. The small airplane soared over Station Square toward Mystic Ruins. "Sonic please be ok" The golden fox whispered.

Amy skipped toward Tails house, as determined as a cat going toward a mouse hole. As she got closer to the house, she noticed the front door was wide open.

Amy frowned. Why was it open? She quickly shrugged it off. "Tails must have left it open.

"Sonic?" She called as she went in. The house seemed really quiet, and almost spooky "Hello? She called again, her voice bouncing off the rafters and coming back to her. "Tails? Sonic? HELLO?"

The pink hedgehog quickly searched the house, but no one was there. "That's strange, where are they?" She wondered out loud. "I guess there not here but why would Tails call me and want me to come over if no one else was here? He said something" She muttered, trailing off.

Amy sighed and sat down. "I guess Ill have to wait for him to get back."

Tails steered the plane so that it would reach the ground as quickly as possible. After flying over the train station, he quickly dropped the Tornado into the field in front of his house. The landing was not what Knuckles had hopped for, and he almost fell out of the plane. However, he didn't have time to make his complaints known, for Tails had instantly jumped out of his seat and run into the workshop as fast as he could. Knuckles held back a sigh, and followed the fox as fast as he could.

"Amy? Where is he?! Is he ok?!" Tails shrieked as he flew through the front door.

Amy looked up, started, "Hi Tails! Who? Sonic? He didn't show up."

Tails ignored her and barreled up the stairs toward the room where Sonic had been 30 minutes ago. "No!" He started to cry when he saw the empty bed. Amy and Knuckles came up the stairs. Tails stared at the bed for several seconds before turning around to glare at Amy.

"WHY DID YOU LET HIM GET OUT?!"

"Get out? What do you mean?! He never came!" She said, confused and getting angry.

Tails continued to glare. "HE WAS ALREADY HERE!"

"NO HE WASN'T! I SEARCHED THE WHOLE HOUSE, AND HE WAS NOT HERE!" The pink hedgehog growled, pulling out her hammer and threatening to give the kit a good whack on the head.

WAIT! HOLD IT! Knuckles quickly jumped between them, pulling Amy's hammer from her grasp. He pointed to Tails. "You said he was here when you left, meaning Amy WASN'T here."

He then pointed to Amy, "And you said he wasn't here when you got here. The reasonable answer? He left after Tails left and before you got here, Amy."

Both stared at Knuckles. Amy finally spoke. "Why did you want me to come over anyway?"

Tails rolled his eyes. I told you over the phone! I needed you to watch Sonic because he's sick and I didn't want to leave him alone!"

Amy looked stricken. "Oh, then how did he leave?"

All three of them turned at the same time to look at the window. It was wide open.

Sonic groaned and opened his eyes. He was lying on his back, on a stainless steel table in a large, white room he didn't recognize.

He slowly pushed himself into sitting position. "Tails?" He called groggily. He remembered waking up and being really weak Tails said something about him being sick and not able to remember anything. But where was Tails now?

In the next room, he heard someone typing. "Tails?" He called again, as he slowly pushed him self up. Dragging his feet, and managed to walk across the room, and into the next.

But what he saw was like nothing he had ever seen before
