Ark-Fox chapter 19
Thanks to 'Kratos Pwns', prowerboy, 'Cheep the Hedgehog', FeathersofMemory, DaddlerTheDalek and 'Sierra Zanimalini14' for reviewing.
Again, remember that 'Sleep: Part two' was technically the chapter leading up to this.
Don't own any characters, if I did, I would have monies to purchase a game called 'Skyrim', luckily for you as I would ditch this story if I had a copy.
Sorry about chapter size... I promise you'll get a decent sized chapter soon.
'Munch... munch... munch...crunch...munch...munch...munch..."
Two sets of eyes him angirily; the idiot in question had somehow acquired a packet of chips and was eating them VERY loudly.
"Crunch... munch... munch... munch..." Bokkun continued eating, oblivious to the dangerous situation outside the cavern walls, a small blue fist smacked him across the face.
"Ow! what was that for!" Bokkun complained loudly, Cheese the chao smacked him across the face again while Fluffy flicked a rock down his throat to stop further noise escaping Bokkun. Bokkun coughed and gagged for a minute before managing to spit it out.
"What are you doing you stupid bird... I could have choked!" Bokkun complained, all Fluffy could think was 'you're a robot... how can you choke?'
Cheese and Fluffy looked at each other, both wondering how they got stuck with this idiot.
Tasting his breath with his tongue, Tails didn't think it would be a good idea to open his mouth in the direction of anybody any time soon, it had been six days since he last had a chance to brush his teeth and the high protein, army like packaged food sachets from G.U.N. wasn't doing anything to help his 'fox breath' either.
To top it off, the faint coppery taste of blood was lingering in his mouth from his recalling of the Chaos Engraving memory last night. Nothing detrimental at this point as his body would have surely become attuned to the blood high during his sleep last night. Something wasn't clicking however, something didn't seem right...
Closing his eyes, the clear voice of Maria sang within Tails mind.
"Look at all those sharp pointy teeth, Miles is carnivore and even eats his meats, but has the heart of loveable happy two year old..."
Removing his glove, the black claws on the ends of his fingers were almost invisible with the charcoal fur on his hands, the sight before him reminded Tails was a natural born killer, a natural born murderer. It also made him briefly wonder how powerful he truly was, if Miles was able to alter his very mind so successfully, so easily, and add an almost hypnotic suggestion that he should go on a rage every time he tasted blood.
The first thing Tails wanted to do once he got his hands on the key and had unlocked his powers was to remove the whole 'blood high' thing. The second thing he would do would be visiting KFC; foxes were notorious for their taste for chickens.
Flexing his fingers, Tails remembered he forgot to tell Topaz the genetic history between the Mobians and Humans during their time together in the mainframe, it was quite unique, how the Humans unknowingly brought forth the advancement of Mobian-kind. In a way it was quite beautiful... no matter what, something good always came from bad, but then again, something bad always comes from good.
This particular brand of evolution was incredibly rare, but humans accidently managed the impossible when they nuked their own planet. They were doomed from the start, their will to survive, their will to protect themselves, inevitably ended the human race. The unpredictable and uncontrollable effects of radiation affected a small species of mosquito, which spread across the globe and affected every species on what used to be earth.
The mosquito was genetically affected by radiation, altering its ability to draw blood from its host. It took DNA from one species and placed it in the next, altering the genetic build-up of everything on Mobius until everything had the same DNA. Every animal species on Earth were slowly becoming a single species, 'the Mobians', while at the same time the humans killed themselves off.
"Funny how the all the different species became one and how animal types are simply races and breeds!"
Humans were going extinct, but their DNA served a useful purpose in the end, if it wasn't for their mistake Mobians would never existed in the first place, they'll still just be a bunch of dumb animals.
Sighing, the kitsune briefly flicked his tails, pondering whether it was worth it to drink the coffee that was slowly brewing before him, it was true what they said about watched pots, it would also most definitely harm his already bad 'fox breath' as well.
"Why would a two year old even need to drink caffeine?" Tails wondered, the coffee pot in question was hidden behind one of his padded wall panels and by simply hitting the wall a secret compartment opened up revealing the coffee pot.
It also revealed a computer screen that gave access to the Ark's security network, and a button that released the magnetic locks on his 'room' door. A few days ago this panel would have been a goldmine, allowing him to see when Sonic went to sleep and giving him the ability to pop the door on demand.
Taking a sip of the brew, it would have helped in the mornings as well.
Sighing, this time in enjoyment, Tails put his back to the wall and slid down. For the first time in days a smile was present on his face, though no-one was around to view the look of absolute bliss plastered on him.
"Miles really knows, well knew, how to make a coffee machine."
Tails had studied his room well the past few days, the vent near the roof ran straight to Maria's room, that was the most probable reason for the claw marks leading up to it. he just hoped Miles gave her a sense of privacy, she was a young woman after all.
It was his plan to head straight to the mainframe and start looking up anything that could help him against Black Doom, the situation was bleak. Somehow the Black Arms managed to capture his friends... along with Metal Sonic, Eggman, Bocoe, Docoe and Amy.
A giggle suddenly emanated from Tails despite the situation, the thought of Amy being an enemy was too much for the fox, every time she saw Sonic and screamed 'Soniku' at the top of her lungs.
But Black Doom did have his friends, along with the key which was very worrying.
When he had his power... Miles was a god, plain and simple. That amount of power could not rest in Doom's hands.
But what could he do?
Tails was normally good with coming up with plans, but these Black Arms were unknown enemy's and also had a lot of leverage on Tails situation. Friends, the Key, knowledge on Miles, and if they travelled between dimensions they could already have some Chaos Emeralds. He could sense Fluffy on the Black Comet as well.
Just like that Tails was depressed again.
Cosmo's sacrifice had hit him hard, and the situation felt like the whole Meterex situation. The last thing Tails wanted was to see was someone he love die so he was actually considering heading back to Mobius to get the emeralds, which would most likely take less than a day given the fact Eggman wasn't there to conveniently turn up and cause hell as soon as they were found.
Drowning down his coffee, Tails got up and headed out his room, he'd been sitting on his ass too long and he needed to come up with a plan soon.
Rate and Review... YOU!
