Chapter 7 – Questions

"Hey Knuckles, I have a question" I said. He sat next to me and nodded his head

"Shoot" he replied.

"If Amy and Sonic are hedgehogs and Tails is a fox with two tails, what in the word are you?" I asked. He placed his hand behind his hand and leaned back.

"That is a good question, Maria. I am an echidna."

"A what?" I said he laughed at this.

"An echidna"

"Okay, if you say so." I said back. The rest of the day passed and I could walk again. I was so happy that I did not have to be carried around I was jumping with joy. The main reason was because they where discussing who would get to do it next. Tails was too small and Amy was to weak so sonic and Knuckles where really fighting on who got to do it. What was scary is that they wanted to do it. When the fire was seat and every thing was quiet I asked a question.

"Hey, how am I going to get home?" I asked. I did not mean for that to kill the mood but it did. "I don't mean it in a bad way." I added

"We know" said Tails.

"We just wanted to see if you wanted to go or not" said Amy

"well I do but I don't, see at home I have stuff I need to do, but if I go I don't want to loose you as friends."

"That is understandable" said Sonic.

"We do have away for you to get home, so if you want to take it in the morning, you can." said Tails. I was really debating it.

"Will I be able to see you all again?" I asked

"Sure, all you have to do is call" Said Sonic. I looked at him slightly confused.

"Well in my spare time I was able to make this phone, it is programmed to call one person, Sonic." Said Tails. I thought about my friends and family that where back n earth.

"I want to go back, I will miss you all like heck, but I need to go back." I said. So it was decided that in the morning I was going to go back to Earth.
