Station Square
Tails' nose began to twitch as he took in the scent of …waffles?….pancakes! He slowly sat up on his bed and stretched out his arms. Looking at his alarm clock, he noticed that he slept in one hour than what he normally would wake up. Quickly, Tails got out and put on his sneakers. He then made his way down the stairs towards the dining room. On the dining table sitting and enjoying a plate full of pancakes with a glass filled of milk next to it was Sonic. Since Sonic didn't stay at one place for a long time. He decided to share a house, a two story house, with his best friend and proclaimed little brother, Tails. Just in case he needed a place to stay when he wanted to see his friends or hangout with them.
"Good morning Tails. Grab a plate and get some pancakes from that huge plate over in the kitchen," Sonic told his pal. Tails looked at Sonic with astonishment.
"Did you make the pancakes?"
"Huh? No way! If I did then the house would of been on fire and what would be left of the pancakes would be among the ashes. Amy came over and left us a plate topped with pancakes," Sonic lightly laughed at Tails taking in an enormous bite of a pancake. Tails went into the kitchen and served himself pancakes and a glass of milk. When Tails was barley sitting down on the dining table. Sonic got up with his empty plate and glass and went to put it in the dishwasher.
"So watcha doing today?" Sonic asked as he leaned against the wall and crossed his arm across his chest.
"Oh, I'm going to continue on fixing the Tornado-1's left wing. After Eggman made a direct hit on that last battle two weeks ago. The Tornado-1 has been having trouble flying, the wing was badly damage. But, it should be completely fixed today. How about you?"
"You know the usual, run around town and see if anyone needs my help. Chill and visit some places and also run away from Amy, I bet she's going to find me somehow," Sonic said nonchantly, rolling his eyes to empathize that Amy was plainly annoying.
"Uh huh sure, she somehow finds you. I know you Sonic and I have seen you. When you see her walking around town you happen to suddenly appear in front of her. Thus, the chasing begins."
"I don't know what your talking about lil' buddy. Well, gotta go and take my jog see you later," Sonic smiled at Tails. He then darted out of the door.
"I'M NOT SO LITTLE ANYMORE! I'M TWELVE YEARS OLD NOW!" Tails shouted at Sonic. Tails sighed as he turned back at his plate of pancakes and started to eat.
After he had eaten his breakfast, he headed towards the basement. The basement was converted into Tails' workshop, he managed to make it even broad. He also formed the large front lawn to open whenever the Tornado-1 was going to land in the workshop or get out. Tails stopped in front of a metal door that had a keypad next to the door's handle. Tails punched in the code and the little red light on the handle turned green. Tails grabbed the handle and twisted it. Cool air blew into the fox's face as the door open wide. Inside the lights of the workshop automatically turned on, revealing Tails' workshop filled with inventions, tools, shelves full of books, different kinds of machinery and the Tornado-1.
"Let's get to work", Tails told himself as he rubbed his hands together. He walked over to his tool shelf and began to put on his working gloves and choose the right tools for the job.
Six hours later………..
"Almost done," the now sweaty fox said to himself. He was tying in the last bolt on the underside of the left wing.
"Yes!" Tails smiled proudly as he stepped back to admire his handy work Wiping a bead of sweat dripping down his right cheek, he noticed that he was thirsty. As for a reward, a nice ice cold glass of water. Happily, Tails started to head up the stairs to the door when he hear something. Immediately, he froze on his spot and let the quietness surround him. Creak Creak Creak came the sounds from somewhere upstairs. Since the floors and stairs in the house was made out of wood, it was easy to hear when someone was walking around. Tails went to his tool shelf and grabbed a giant monkey wrench to use as a weapon. Quiet as a mouse, Tails walked up the last few steps and slowly open the metal door. He peaked out and looked down the short hallway that led into the living room, there was no one. Creak Creak Creak, the footsteps continued on. It can't be Sonic. He usually comes back home around the afternoon. And whenever he comes home early, he would come to see me down at the workshop. Or he's sitting on the couch watching the T.V. Besides he's too noisy. Tails took off his sneakers and tip toed in his socks out from behind the metal door and went down the short hallway. At the edge of the hallway, he pressed himself against the wall holding the monkey wrench tightly. He listen carefully to the footsteps of the intruder to determine where his position was at the moment. Creak Creak Creak, He's upstairs where our bedrooms are! Tails could feel his blood turn icy cold and the hairs of his arms stand up. Creak! Creak! Creak!, this time the footsteps sounded as if they were running, they were becoming a little bit distant. Then they stopped and the sound of a door opening could be heard. Splendid! Now he might be in MY room! Tails peeped from the edge of the short hallway and into the long hallway where the staircase was located off above the closet door. Tails made his way up the stairs carefully not to make loud creaks on the wooden floor. Peeking from the edge of the top stair, Sonic's door was left ajar, but from where Tails could see his room's door was slightly open. Mustering enough courage, Tails secured his grip on the wrench and silently made his way to his room. Standing in front of his door, he was gradually looking around the inside of his room to see the intruder when………….
DING DONG!
Tails jumped at the sound of the doorbell and ran with all his might to get the front door. Panting and frighten, he open the door only to see Knuckles standing there with a broken mini T.V. in his hands.
"Hey Tails, I was wondering if you could fix my T.V. It kinda got a little accident and si-," Knuckles was explaining sheepishly only to be cut off by Tails.
"Shhhhhh! There's an intruder in my house!" Tails whispered his eyes showed fear. Knuckles eyes widen in alarm and looked inside the house. He put up his fists and made a low growl. "Let's check out the lucky guest. Where is he?"
"Last time I knew before YOU rang the doorbell. He was in my room," Tails said. The fox and echidna entered the house quietly and walked together searching for the intruder. After an hour long of search, the outcome of the searching declared that the intruder was no longer in the house.
"I guess I scared him off when I rang the doorbell," Knuckles shrugged.
"I don't know. We have checked everywhere. We even split up and we still hadn't found any trace of the intruder. This is really weird," Tails pointed out. He was rubbing his chin trying to sort out the situation. Tails was in deep thought when the sound of keys turning and the opening of door could be heard.
"HEY TAILS! YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE WHAT HAPPEN TO ME WHEN I WAS DOING MY NOON JOG!" Sonic called out. Sonic put his house keys on the key hanger and joined Tails and Knuckles in the living room.
"I was running around Botanical Kingdom when out the blue. Someone tackled me down to the ground. I think you already know who it was. And- OH! Hello Knuckles, are you here to get your butt kicked again?" Sonic smirked.
"Since you mentioned it. Yea! I would like to have a duel with you. Loser gets to buy all of us hamburgers from Karl's Sr."
"Fine. I guess you better take my order then," Sonic retorted boldly giving the echidna his trademark grin.
"Oh boy," Tails shook his head. He knew where this was going.
"If you need me I'll be in my workshop fixing Knuckles' broken mini T.V.!" Tails called out to them. They were already outside in the front lawn standing in fighting stances ready to get into the duel. Sonic broke from his fighting stance and looked at Knuckles skeptically.
"What did you do to the mini T.V. I gave you?"
"It's a long story. ARE WE GOING TO FIGHT OR!-" Knuckles was saying, but he was cut off in his sentence as he received a blow on the cheek by Sonic's sneaker.
