Sontails: Dreams Come True Chapter 16: Sontails: The Musical, a sonic the hedgehog fanfic

A/N: Hello everyone, and welcome to a very special chapter of Dreams Come True. I have worked feverishly on this chapter, composing the lyrics to the songs, working on the rhyming dialogue, creating a fun and interesting reason for why they had to sing and giving everyone a spot in the lime light. It was quite a challenge but I am really pleased with the results. With lot's of dialogue, a flowing narrative with a three act structure that ties a neat bow on this chapter while also allowing more drama and the overall story to continue uninterrupted into the home stretch. Sorry if I sound up myself, I don't think this is a master piece, I'm just very proud of it and I can't wait to hear what you all have to think. Good or Bad, I just need review on this, it would mean the world if all my readers, especially ones who read all my chapters but never leave a review, to let me know what you thought. Anonymous or not, they would mean so much to know that my hard work paid off. I just want to thank you all for reading this so far, your support means the world to me. Anyway, I should stop this authors note because it is already way too long and this chapter is already over 10,000 words! Just a reminder, when reading the songs, i HIGHLY recommend to play the song that i am parodying in the background to get the full affect. You can even sing over the real song in their voices :D

Chapter 16:

Sontails: The Musical

"Cubot, pass me that wrench!" The doctor commanded, holding out his extended palm and waited impatiently until the weight of the metallic tool was pushed into his hand. His long, skinny fingers wrapped around it quicker than a phantom wraps his around the souls of his victims and tightened the final bracket of his machine.

"It's finally done! Now, with this machine, everyone will be infected by the melodic rhythm of music that they won't be able to contain themselves. Breakout dancing and musical numbers will occur and everyone will be so enthralled in the new fad that they will all flood into my new musical themed park! I'll become rich. RICH! Wohohohohoho!" Eggman bellowed, holding his jostling gut as he laughed out loud. He knelt down and switched on the switch.

The laser like device began to boot up as a multitude of different toned beeping sounds emanated from the device as it rumbled. Suddenly, a cylindrical wavy green substance that was a mixture of plasma and other gasses shot out from the barrel, flying through the sky and blanketed the town of the Mobian community. It mixed in with the oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere and seeped into the sleeping creatures bedrooms and without knowing it, every citizen inhaled large quantities of the mysterious substance.

…

The students all filed into the school, smiles plastered on all of their faces as they were ready for the day ahead. All but Sonic and Tails, who unfortunately still had nightmares of the bloodshed and fire that plagued them all night.

Song 1

This is Mobius
(Parody of This is Halloween)

Big: Boys and girls, from the age of 5
Are all shown how to live their lives
We all serve the great Chaos
In our land of Mobius

Students: This is Mobius, This is Mobius

Alecia: Teaching my students everyday

Students: This is Mobius
A town of serene and bliss

Amy: Something here just isn't quite what it should seem
Blaze: Amy please don't make a scene'

Students: In our land of Mobius

Sonic: Happy's what I feel when he walks through the door
But they can't know for fear of war

Tails: So glad I know that he's all mine
With him by my side I'll be just fine

Students: This is Mobius, This is Mobius
Mobius, Mobius, Mobius, Mobius

Shadow: In this school, that we roam
I am the fastest, as it's known

Knuckles: In this land, filled with such beauty
Tikal has made me feel so lucky

Students: Romance in the air
Loving without a care

Sonic: Yet, for us, there is no-one we can trust
Tails: This is Mobius, there's numerous that won't adjust
Sonic: It's not fair

Sticks: They're nationwide!
They're allied on every side
Government's control our mind

Tikal: The air's always filled with romance

Students: Everybody dance, everybody dance
In our land of Mobius

Blaze: I can't decide if it's wrong or right
Why should I care what they do at night?

Amy: Can't explain what's wrong in their brain
But with this secret I've much to gain

Sonic: We're never gonna happen, got that right?

Amy: I'll spill the beans if we continue this fight

Students: This is Mobius, this is Mobius
Mobius, Mobius, Mobius, Mobius, community, just for us

Alecia: Student's gather if you please
School with start with a pop quiz

Knuckles: I refuse!
Tikal: I've an excuse!
Silver: We can't win it's just no use

Shadow: In this school, I must admit
I'm the fastest not that blue hypocrite

Tails: Midnight hedgehog
you've already said that
Too bad it's both false and inaccurate

Students: This is Mobius, never a dull day

Shadow: Take it back fox or you will pay

Sonic: Lay off tails
not his fault you fail
You're just jealous that your too slow

Students: This is Mobius, This is Mobius
We are melodious, also harmonious

Big: In this land, we are proud
'Cause being gay isn't allowed

La-La-La-La-La-La-La-La
Sonic and Tails: *Sigh*

As the students were jumping, singing and dancing through the checker boarded halls of the school, finishing the strange musical number that seemed to erupt out of nowhere, Sonic and Tails slipped away, annoyed by Big's sudden intrusion to their school day.

"What's going on?" Sonic asked. "I've no idea!"

"Something quite strange is going on here," Tails replied.

"All this singing is becoming infections so please don't continue to rhyme," Sonic shouted, the sudden breaking out of singing and dancing shattering his already shot nerves to the point where he thought the whole world was against him.

"I think there is some airborne disease that is affecting our enzymes," Tails pondered, placing his thumb and forefinger on his chin and cheek as he tried to decipher what was happening to everybody.

"You did it a second time!"

"Something is amiss and something is strange, I can't tell what but something has changed," Blaze uttered, walking up to the duo and trying to discover what was happening to all the students.

"Blaze, you couldn't have more horrible timing. No matter how hard we try, neither of us can stop rhyming!"

Just as the trio were conversing, Silver the Hedgehog rushed up to them, a big smile plastered on his face and delight sparkled in his eyes. "Isn't all this singing and dancing great?"

"That is something that's up for debate," Shadow replied coldly. His sudden response startled everyone as they turned around to see the midnight hedgehog leaning against the nearby wall, arms folded over themselves. He was staring at his shoes, refusing to make eye contact with anybody.

"I don't think you losers understand why this is so wrong. You may try to hide but secrets are always divulged in song."

"That makes no sense? It opposes all the known laws of physics," Tails protested to the black and red hedgehog.

"We have been affected by a musical bug. Now we will let out our inner thoughts through lyrics."

Sonic didn't need to hear anymore. He grabbed Tails by the arm without a word and rushed him by, waving to his friends as the two dodged through the crowds of confused, singing teenagers and ducked into a nearby broom closet.

"Sonic, what's wrong. Why did you do that to me?" Tails asked, rubbing his sore arm as the two crouched behind the door, looking at one another.

"Seriously Tails, do you really not see?" Sonic replied but seeing the confusion in the young fox's eyes, he continued. "While this strange thing is affecting us, we can't make ourselves shown. If we start singing and conversing with our friends, our secret will surely become known."

Tails sighed, looking at the visible shakes that the hedgehog was displaying. Ever since the two witnessed their childhood friends be burnt at the stake simply for enjoying the company of the same gender, Sonic hadn't been himself. He seemed less confident, less sure of himself. This was surely different from the usual behavior displayed by the cocky hedgie.

Song 2

Forbidden Love
(Parody of I'll never tell)

Tails: Lying awake with Sonic in my bedroom, shouldn't be wrong
Thought I'd be shy, but how I am feeling, singing this love song
'Cause he is so perfect, I have become an addict
but the rules are strict... it's forbidden

Sonic: He is the one, my love spun, in a web, they won't allow it
We are a team, but it seems, in my dreams, cupid, I've been hit
We cannot let it show, relationship others can't know
'Cause if they find out...no. It's forbidden

Both: 'Cause it's forbidden love

Sonic: The sight
Tails: He's my knight
Sonic: This feeling gives me such fright
Tails: He walks by and I alight but then I turn white
Sonic: He's bright, and knows flight
Tails: I know for me he would fight
Sonic: My plight with him's not quite right but he doesn't bite

Both: He has captured my whole heart
Sonic: And also he is very smart
Tails: He's kind and sort of a sweetheart
Sonic: He is the top of all my charts

Both: An angel from above
But it's a forbidden love

Sonic: He is the best, makes, my heart beat out of my chest
When he walks by I get stressed, but I also feel blessed

Tails: This must, be addressed, without him I am depressed
I wouldn't have of guessed, that I'd be so obsessed
he...

Sonic: Look out, the others are coming!

(In the music interlude, their friends coming looking for them and they have to hide so they don't get caught)

Tails: His love, glad that I obtained
Sonic: I love your big brain
Tails: How can I look past your beauty
With your shoes as red as rubies
And your eyes a sea of, green emeralds

Sonic: My love
Tails: My white glove!
Sonic: As innocent as a dove
Tails: That's why we can't tell Amy or she will kill me

Sonic: My loves infective, and also quite effective
Big the Cat is dangerous so I'm protective

Both: We are, closer than brothers
Blue N' Gold, are complimentary colours
Tails: You are worth more, than all my money
Sonic: With you I am so very happy
Tails: And just look at that body, Sonic, you are such a hotty
Sonic: I really want your company, and never as my enemy

Tails: How'd I get you?
Sonic: Must be dreaming
Tails: If you were then I'd start screaming
Sonic: This is like a living hell
Because you make my heart swell
Both: I just wish that we could tell
Sadly, our loves forbidden

Sonic: Others are near
Tails: Wish it was clear
Sonic: We are both queer, and filled with fear
Tails: Forbidden, Love

Sonic and Tails drew into an intimate hug together after their song finished, sniffing in large quantities of each other's distinct scent and leant in close, preparing for a passionate make out session when the fire alarm snapped them out of their senses.

…

Amy ran through the halls, searching for the cobalt hedgehog that she adored so much. She glanced through the small, rectangular windows of each classroom, moving swiftly along when there was no sign of her. It wasn't until she felt a tap on her shoulder that she stopped her quest to find him.

Before she knew who she was looking at, Blaze grabbed her arm and stormed into a nearby classroom, locking the door behind her.

"Blaze, what was that for? Why'd you lock the door?" Amy chimed, sounding rather annoyed.

"You can't keep doing this to those two! It just isn't something that a friend would do!" Blaze yelled in response.

"How can you say that? They are both gay!"

"It is still love. Why should we see it any other way?"

Amy and Blaze's voices progressively got louder and louder as they began getting in a full blown argument. Amy argued that if Sonic ever double crosses her or doesn't do what she says than she will tell everyone and get them both killed whilst Blaze tried to defend the two, but the more she thought about it, the more unsure she became.

"You know what! Let me show you just what is going to happen if Sonic ever leaves me. Let's just say, he won't ever be free."

Song 3

Take Them Down
(Parody of ACADECA)

Amy: I'm gonna take them down
And take you down with them
I'm gonna take them down
You're all dead!

Blaze: I'm gonna take you out
And gonna protect them
I'm gonna take you out
Stay away

Amy: I'm not about to let you win, being gay is a crime
over 'fore it begins, you three are out of time
Won't let them be free, Since he's not on my side
Sonic likes him more than me so I'll turn the tides
All of the times that I've been ignored, should've been adored
So this I can't stand for
Understand my threat, I can see you sweat
What can I say, I always get my way

I'm gonna tell the world, na, na, na-na-na, na
They will not survive
Watch my might unfurl, na, na, na-na-na, na
No longer be alive

Blaze: Talk a little too much for a girl that gets none
You just haven't got the touch, not liked by anyone
Now that my mind is cleared, I have a duty to my friends
They won't have to fear, thanks to me they won't meet their ends
Push my fist in your face, Amy you're a disgrace
You should leave this place
Before it gets too late, too late
Because this is fate, is fate
They'll be safe

I'll make sure they are fine na, na, na-na-na, na
Your plan will not work
I'll watch your decline na, na, na-na-na, na
Amy you've gone berserk!

Amy: Pressures on, how are you gonna stop me?
Just you wait, they will no longer be free
Blaze the Cat, you and them are about to go down, down, down, down

Blaze: Pressures on, I know that I can stop you
Just give up, there's so many things I'll do
Amy rose, the hoe, you're about to go down, down, down, down

Amy: I'll take this to the top, let Big sort this all out

Blaze: Amy, you need to stop, please take a roundabout

Amy: You should learn about love
Should detain it like a dove
Never taken away

Blaze: I can't wait 'til this is all over
So we can go back to before

Amy: Blaze after this is all over
Tails will die, I'll make sure!

Silver: What's this about?

Knuckles: Girls, spit it out

Amy: All you listen!

Blaze: No don't listen!

Amy: This is juicy!

Blaze: No it's boring!

Amy: Wait 'til you see

Blaze: She's just lying

Shadow: Stop avoiding!

Amy: You should all know!

Cream: What are you saying?

Brrrrrrrrrrrrring!

During the end of the song, Silver, Knuckles, Shadow, Cream and Tikal had all entered the room to see what was happening. After Cream sang her part, Blaze rushed over and pulled down the fire alarm, stopping Amy in her tracks before she said something that she would later regret.

"Fire, Fire! The school is going up in flames! We better run outside to join the rest of the school out on the main." Blaze ushered her friends out and was happy when Amy was separated from them in the sea of hurrying students.

…

After they realized it was a false alarm and the students began to file back into the hall, Shadow was the first person to rush back inside, trying his hardest to avoid the new song about a fire drill that the students had begun singing. Shadow skulked through the desolate hallways, trying to ignore all the incessant singing and dancing that every kid in the whole school, including the teachers, seemed to partake in. To Shadow, they were all insufferable.

"Hey Shadow, have you seen Sonic? I really need him for a project," Silver the hedgehog walked by. Shadow simply shrugged in response, not even bothering to make eye contact with the hedgehog. Silver just ignored the moody hedgie and hurried along, looking for the sapphire speedster.

"Hey Shadow, have you seen Sonic? I really need to talk to him but I'm sorry, you can't know the context," Blaze muttered to him. Something was clearly bothering her and the ebony hedgehog wanted to help her out, but the fact that it was about Sonic made him sick to his very core so he simply ignored the violet feline who huffed angrily and scurried along, looking to the sapphire speedster.

"Hey Shadow, have you seen Sonic? I really need to see him to remind him about my new… prospect," Amy said mysteriously but hearing the cocky douchebag's name three times in a row simply pushed him over the deep end and he stormed off down the corridor, completely pretending that the upset girl didn't even exist.

The words circled around in his head, growing progressively louder and louder, taunting him. "I really need him… I really need to talk to him… I really need to see him." They attacked his brain viciously. "For a project… you can't know the context… my new prospect." It was always cryptic. He could never know what it was about. He was hardly ever even talked to anymore since Sonic became the centre of attention.

"Hey Shadow, have you seen Son-" Knuckles began but was cut off instantly by Shadow who began to scream at the top of his lungs, completely losing any of the remaining cool he still had inside of him.

"I haven't seen Sonic the hedgehog you idiot, I haven't seen him and that's it. I haven't seen that cocky dick in the classroom. I haven't seen that faker prick in the lunch room!"

"Woah, calm down bro, don't need to get so bent out of shape," Knuckles replied, his mouth agape.

"Everyone thinks he is quick, but he looks like a scrawny stick. He makes me sick, that lunatic. Yet somehow, he gets all the chicks!" Shadow was practically screaming now. Before he knew what had gotten a hold of him, he began to start singing his heart out at the confused and bewildered Knuckles.

Song 4

This Rivalry
(Parody of Stressed Out)

Shadow: Before you came along I used to be so content
But since you showed your face you couldn't help but torment
I used to be the fastest, and get all the awards
But when you took my title, I just became ignored
I keep trying, every race, every attempt
But now everyone stares at me with contempt

My name's Shadow, and I should be the best
My name is Shadow, better than all the rest

Wish I could turn back time, to before Sonic
But he's fractured my life to the point where it's tectonic
Wish I could go back when, I was the best decidedly
But since he showed up, he's created this dumb rivalry
This rivalry

I will never surrender to the might that is his
For me, it is forsaken sufferance but for him, it's bliss
Sonic's an undertaker, faker
Forsake, he'd make a great snake but he's given me an intake of headaches

People say we're brothers
Cause we have the same shape
Same quills, same frame but we couldn't act further from each other
But it reminds me of a dream, Like Halloween not quite what it seems
And it makes me want to scream

My name is Shadow, and I should be the best
My name is Shadow, better than all the rest

I used to be so wise, get the prize as I rise
Watch in my enemies eyes, as they cry while I fly
In the skies had allies but now they're laughing in my face
Saying 'Shadow you are a disgrace' damn X2

Continuously, was the best easily
Frequently, gleefully, speedily, unbelievably
Continuously, was the best easily
Frequently, gleefully, speedily, unbelievably

I used to be so wise, get the prize as I rise
Watch in my enemies eyes, as they cry while I fly
In the skies, had allies but now they're laughing in my face
Saying 'Shadow you are a disgrace' damn

Shadow just sulked loudly when he realised that Knuckles had left to go find Sonic in the middle of his song.

"Just my luck," Shadow muttered angrily, the pure hatred of the cobalt hedgehog growing stronger. "Sonic sucks!"

…

After the alarm was called a false alarm and the students continued to file back into the school, Sonic picked up Tails and rushed him back into the janitor's closet where they began, wanting to be alone for a little longer before they had to go back to class. Unfortunately, a certain pink hedgehog just caught sight of a blue hand closing the door shut behind him.

"Sonic are you in there? I want you here with me! Because I'll tell everyone your secret unless I'm kept happy," Amy blurted out loudly, causing a few curious heads to turn and ponder at her cryptic words before shrugging it off, just assuming that it was crazy Amy obsession over the hedgie and moved on with their day.

"Tails, stay in here. I'll be back soon. I have to go deal with Amy, that crazy loon," Sonic sighed, slipping out of the room and getting crushed by the tight embrace of the pink hedgehog. Before he could protest anymore, Amy gripped his wrist and pulled him into the classroom adjacent to the room.

"Amy what do you want? Stop holding this secret over me!" Sonic yelled when the wooden door slammed closed behind the two, knowing that nobody could hear their conversation.

"Sonic, you don't deserve any sympathy or empathy!" she retorted. "Now you better do everything I say."

"You can't keep treating me this way," Sonic moaned loudly, knowing full way that there was nothing he could do to get out of his predicament. If he ever made Amy mad, she would tell everybody his secret and he would no longer be allowed in the community, or even alive at all.

"Oh, Can't I? Let me just give you a couple reasons why…" Amy laughed, clearing her throat as she began to sing.

Song 5

Dear Cobalt Hedgehog
(Parody of Dear Future Husband)

Amy: Dear Cobalt hedgehog
here's a list of things you must do if
You don't want me to spill your secret and oust you

Take me out to lunch
After we're back from brunch
But don't you loudly crunch
Or your secret wont expunge

'Cause if you treat me wrong
You won't be here for long
Fleeing out of town, away from the crowd

You've got someone to love?
We'll that person's me now!
'Cause If it's not then people will find out you're gay somehow!

You better do what's said
Stay over in my bed
or you'll be dead
No tears will be shed, Hey!

You gotta know that there's no defeating blackmail
If you try then you'll just fail
You'll ruin the life of Tails (and we wouldn't want that would we?)

Dear cobalt hedgehog
here's a list of things you must do if
You don't want me to spill your secret and oust you ('Cause you know that I will)
Dear cobalt hedgehog
I'm in control of your emotions
Obey or you'll be tied up and thrown in the ocean ('Cause you'll be killed, hehehe)

Don't you be so glum, and stop acting dumb
Or you'll become public enemy number one
And I might let you be, or you'll never be free
Listen to me, and don't disagree

You've gotta know how to do everything I say
and start doing things my way
Or else you will pay (And I'm not talking about with money!)

Dear cobalt hedgehog
here's a list of things you must do if
You don't want me to spill your secret and oust you ('Cause you know that I will)
Dear cobalt hedgehog
Make time for me, don't leave me lonely
Or your family won't be the only ones with knives ('Cause you'll be killed, hehehe)

Abscond to all my flaws and stay tolerant
Sing me a ballet every night and act gallant
And don't make displeased
Make sure I am appeased
Let's make it clear
I'm your puppeteer

You've gotta know how to show the right intention
And ask me the correct question
And break up with Tails (That's part of the condition!)

Dear cobalt hedgehog
here's a list of things you must do if
You don't want me to spill your secret and oust you ('Cause you know that I will)
Dear cobalt hedgehog
There is no defeating blackmail
If you try with Tails then you will both fail ('Cause you'll be killed, hehehe)

Sonic: Amy Rose will, you go out with me

Sonic sighed, defeated as he gave in to her demands and asked her out at the finale of the song. Little did he know that a certain yellow fox had decided to venture out of the janitors closet after assuming the coast was clear and he had waited enough time for it not to seem suspicious and had peered inside the classroom just at the conclusion of the song.

…

Tails rushed through the hall, determined to stop the tears from flowing, knowing that crying wouldn't solve anything. He thought that the singing wouldn't be a problem. He should have listened to Sonic's warnings and gone away but like his sapphire crush had said, deepest secrets would be let out through song. If that were the case, then why was Sonic singing about asking Amy out? Tails knew why, but he didn't want himself to believe it. How could Sonic abandon him like that?

"I shouldn't have let him in," Tails thought.

"My situation should have been win, win," came his retort.

"I feel so horrid and useless," he cried.

"Sonic is just so… compassionless," Tails lied.

His anger was getting the better of him, clouding his better judgement. Tails punched his hand into his locker as hard as he could, trying to dispel the pain he was feeling through brute force but instead of leaving him and being absorbed by the cold metal, he was just filled with pain of a different variety too. Tails slumped to the floor, letting his new found depression fill him completely.

He knew that he should have never fallen in love with Sonic, but he couldn't help it. Now that he heard the inner song of his love, he knew the truth and the monster inside of him began to break free. Tails could feel this evil entity inside of him thrive off his turmoil, sadness, depression, anger, fear and hate, growing with each new feeling. He was overcome. He couldn't talk, feel or breathe. It was like his lungs were filling up with water. He felt like he was drowning.

Song 6

I won't Drown
(Parody of Nightmare)

Tails: I thought that I'd put it behind me
But I discovered I'll never be free
I'm told the righteous never panic
But I feel I'm alone on this planet
But am I losing my mind
I really think so
Want to put it behind
But what no-one knows

Is that I tried to contain it, but I can't explain it
Affecting my brain it's worse than a cocaine addict-ion

I'm becoming a monster, losing all self-control
Try stay afloat, in need of a boat
I'm sinking down
I'm becoming a monster, alone without my soul
I'm incomplete, I just sink and weep
so let me drown
To escape from this nightmare

Wait, I just can't abandon
Don't, wallow in pity
Just gotta keep moving on
To tranquility
The future is unknown, and can be scary
They will be shown, won't give up easily
Breaking through the surface saying
"I won't give in to this side of me!"

I am fighting a monster, taking back self-control
I'll stay afloat, climbing on a boat
not sinking down
I am fighting a monster, I'm taking back my soul
I'm incomplete, won't admit defeat
No, I won't drown
Conquering this nightmare

Swimming to the shore
I am taking my life back
Letting go of fear
This is my time to attack
If I could go back in time
Then I could convince myself, that everything turns out fine
Because, It's all been said and done, let's move on
The past's unchangeable
When my mind finished being so negative
I find out I've become adaptable

I defeated a monster, I took back self-control
I stayed afloat, I don't need a boat
I didn't drown
I defeated a monster, I took back self-control
I stayed afloat, I don't need a boat
I didn't drown

No!
I defeated a monster, I'm alive with a soul
Now I'm complete, no need to repeat
Inner demons
'Cause I conquered my nightmare
'Cause I conquered my nightmare
'Cause I conquered my nightmare
'Cause I conquered my nightmare
And now I'm a debonair!

Tails, with new found enthusiasm and knowledge of the fact that this has only made him stronger as a person and that he no longer needs Sonic anymore, raced off to his next class with a skip in his step (and not just because of the musical device).

…

Knuckles walked away from Shadow, still slightly confused by the strange musical outburst that he had just bared witness to. It was very strange, having everybody break out into song and dance. Knuckles tried to figure out why this was happening but his brain started to ache from trying so he just shrugged it off and kept walking.

He held his head up high, marching down the corridor until he noticed a flyer, posted to the wall out of the corner of his eye.

"What is this shite? This isn't right!" Knuckles yelled angrily, pulling the poster off of the wall. It was a condescending little advertisement, detailing just how much of an idiot Knuckles was. There was a posted picture of him in the middle with quotes surrounding him, documenting the many dumb and idiotic things that had escaped his mouth over the months and years. He didn't know many things. He didn't know where this poster came from. He didn't know what kind of person would do this to him and he didn't know how to fix it. However, one thing he did know is that he had to get to the bottom of this.

"Hey, Knuckles. How's it going?" Tikal, the orange female echidna called out as she raced over to hug her boyfriend.

"Horrible! Can you believe this poster? Whoever made it is obviously lying."

Tikal read over the flyer, letting small giggles escape her lips as she read the words.

"How could you be laughing at me? This isn't funny, don't you see?" Knuckles retorted, annoyed.

"Don't be so sad, this isn't that bad. Whoever made this is just having a little fun. Who cares if you're a little dumb, you will always be my number one!" Tikal moved forward to plant a small kiss on Knuckles' cheek when he pulled away, frustrated by how his girlfriend wasn't taking his side.

"Hey! I'm not dumb, I'm smart! I'll prove everybody wrong!"

"And how will you do that?" Tikal asked.

"By singing my new song!"

Song 7

I'm Not Dumb
(Parody of Unknown from M.E)

Knuckles: I'm not dumb, I'm smarter than the rest of them
The best of them, brighter than Tails
But why do I fail? My routine is getting stale
Yet I'm strong, not frail
As tough as nails, so why am I stupid
Nothing in my brain is properly computed
Yet I concluded, that is the reason I'm secluded and often excluded

My stupidity's the thing, that fuels me
Sparks my ego, it needs to be gone
Often taken, advantage of
I'll no longer be a pawn

I won't be the only one tonight seeing red
Diss me on my intellect and you'll end up dead

Told, all my life, I have a duty
And I won't be swayed by scrutiny
I am fighting my own mission
Working so hard I deserve commission

I won't be the only one tonight seeing red
Diss me on my intellect and you'll end up dead

Throughout my life there has always been a stigma
Revolving around the intelligence of echidna's
We seem straight forward but we're an enigma
Smart or dumb, weak or tough, it's a dilemma

I'm not dumb, I'm smarter than the rest of them
The best of them, 'Cause I'm not stupid
Call me deluded, but unlike Sonic I'm elusive
It's undisputed
I am not average, I'm savage with damage
You need a vantage point to see the carnage I manage
Unlike the Spanish I establish my dominance
And I brandish my knowledge of our providence

I have no time for my friends defiance
My brain tells me the only solution's violence
While they all have deep seeded dependence
I'm capable of extreme vehemence

I won't be the only one tonight seeing red
Diss me on my intellect and you'll end up dead

Throughout my life there has always been a stigma
Revolving around the intelligence of echidna's
We seem straight forward but we're an enigma
Smart or dumb, weak or tough, it's a dilemma

I won't be frightened, I'll show them all I'm smart
But I just don't know where I'm to start
Should I shed my idiot persona?
Hey that was a fun game wait what was I singing about?

Dumbest kid in school, is the hypothesis
But I'll prove I'm not by doing some reconnaissance
Anonymous hippopotamus deep in a sarcophagus
is synonymous with a monotonous metropolis
The populous is promising
with fraudulent documents that are ominously dominating
An autonomous esophagus
will increase the tolerance of electrolysis with anti-oxidants
Boosting confidence in consciousness!

"So I'm proud that you knew so many words but how was that reconnaissance, honey?" Tikal asked.

"Because if I showed everyone that I could do a complicated rap I wouldn't be called stupid anymore, Baby!" Knuckles replied. "It's because an idiot wouldn't even know those words!" Knuckles concluded.

"Do you know what any of them mean?" Tikal intruded

"I don't have to, because I love you," Knuckles smiled

"I love you, too," Tikal laughed, giving up on trying to convince Knuckles that his song made no sense and just leant in for another kiss, to which her boyfriend happily accepted.

…

"Tails, there you are! I've been looking everywhere for you," Sonic cheered, grabbing the back of Tails' shoulder and spinning him around to face him.

"Whatever. Leave me alone Sonic, I have other things to do," Tails jeered, not wanting to even see the blue speedster at this point. He just wanted to move on completely. However, if there is one thing Sonic is, it's persistent. It was one of the many things that Tails used to, and honestly still did, find so endearing about him.

"Tails, wait. What has you so riled up and angry?" Sonic asked with a cry.

"Oh, so are we just going to pretend that you didn't just sing a love ballet that ended with you asking for a date to Amy?!" Tails yelled in reply.

"I didn't sing to her at all! She was blackmailing us because she knew our secret and if I didn't ask her out and do everything she said, it would lead to our downfall," Sonic retorted with a feeling of dread.

"What do you mean Amy knew about our secret? How could you not tell me about this new development?" Tails shouted as he turned around and fled.

"Well it was only because Blaze knew-" he was interrupted.

"How could you not tell me that my second best friend knew too?" Tails cried, thinking his relationships were corrupted. "I don't need you anymore! We are through, over, done!"

"Don't you dare say that Tails! You better get back here before I finish counting down from three to one!" Sonic yelled, trying his hardest to hold back the relentless tears. Tails kept running, not paying attention to the loud footsteps and the flustered hedgehog that he heard scurrying behind him.

Song 8

So What
(Parody of So What)

Tails: Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na X2
I can't believe he said that, who does he think he is?
But I have moved on from that life, I don't care what he says (nope)
I got a brand new attitude, my happiness has improved
Gotta stop thinking in absolutes, my state of mind is renewed
Na, na, na, na, na, na, Now I don't have to hide
Na, na, na, na, na, na Dispelling the fear deep inside!

So, So what
My name is Tails
And I have a brain, the size of whales
Guess what, I will prevail
Not going to jail
I'm going to show them all
I'm not small, I won't fall
You're just a hedgehog!
So what
I am a genius
And if I'm knocked down I'll be back like a phoenix

(Sonic rushes up to him, confronting him during the chorus and spinning the fox around to face him.)

Sonic: Ouch, what was that, for
I tried to give you a heart to heart, you didn't wanna listen
You said I tore your whole world apart, and I'll never be forgiven
You think I'm under Amy's spell, literally what the hell?
I'm gonna give her a piece of my mind, she made it personal
na, na, na, na, na, I better be careful
na, na, na, na, na, na I'm walking on eggshells

But, so what
I am still awesome
Better take caution, 'Cause I rock the stage!
Now I, broke out of my cage, utilize my rage
So you better disengage
Now I'm free, It's just me
And you're just a fox
But I, Don't mean to boast
But I'm a rich roast
And you are just burnt toast

Tails: I needed you, I know you knew
But you're with her, it isn't fair
I closed my eyes, gave you my trust
Heart didn't rise, it was left in the dust

But so what
My name is Tails
And I have a brain, the size of whales
Guess what, I will prevail
Not going to jail
I'm going to show them all
I'm not small, I won't fall
You're just a hedgehog!

Sonic: So what
Do you want a fight
We'll that isn't right, 'Cause I'd beat you any night
(Tails storms off)
No, no, no, no
Why did I say that!
I wasn't fair
I'm such an idiot!
Not alright! I'm not fine
Wish I'd turn back time!
But so what!
I am still awesome, he should take caution
But it's not the same without him
I better make this right!

Sonic slumped to his knees for what seemed like the thousandth time that week, allowing the tears that had been threatening to spill out of his eyes for all this time to finally be free.

…

Blaze sat alone on the bench, waving away any of her friends or classmates who tried to sit near her to cheer her up. Even Silver, who tried to console her as much as he could, bringing her a cold, frosty slushie in hopes of seeing a smile appear on her face but he was still tossed aside.

"I'm sorry Silver, I just want to think about some things and I'd like to be left alone. There are just some things I need to figure out in my head on my own."

"No problem sweetie, I don't want to be a parasite. I just want to make sure that everything is alright," Silver smiled, giving her a warming hug before he did as she wished and left her to ponder her predicament.

She took what Amy said to heart. Deep down, she knew the pink hedgehog was right. She knew that defending those two was not what she should be doing. She knew it was wrong, but part of her was still nagging, like a bird stuck inside the house that refuses to leave, no matter how hard one tries. Blaze sighed audibly, smacking her head against the side of the bench, trying to wrack her thoughts to come up with a concise answer or a reason for choosing one side or the other, instead of being stuck in this hell of emotions.

"I just want an answer or solution without a melody. Something to light a bulb in my head and get me out of this purgatory," she whined.

"I wish I could think clearly without this strange force creating these annoying lyrics. It's causing my brain to do somersaults and driving me to hysterics," she complained.

"I don't know if I can hold out much more, I'm surprised I've lasted this long. Maybe my only solution will come in the form of a heart felt song…" she finally admitted to herself as she let the invisible waves of the machine catch her, sweeping her out into the sea of music.

Song 9

Torn in Two
(Parody of Someone Like You)

Blaze: They say, love comes in different ways
But I'm stuck between days, 'Cause it's about gays
Unsure, as an observateur
But how can I endure, this secret of yours

But why, should I have to hide
It is wrong for them, to make love inside

I hate to have to divulge their secret to the crowd
But what they do together just isn't allowed
My heart says leave them be but my brain says tell the world
I hate this feud inside me
It feels like my soul is torn in two
And I do not know what I, should do
This is torture, I swear
This guilt I cannot bare
They should be killed, but half of me just disagrees
It is still love, chaos this choice isn't easy

There's only confusion
But those two are in delusion
Their love fantasy, is a catastrophe
The community is their worst enemy

I heard on the phone
Tails he was moanin'
He should be shown he isn't alone
Those two can share a tombstone
once their dead (Blaze what's going on in your head?)

I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place
This is something my friends shouldn't have to face
Been taught from a young age
Gay love is sacrilege
Inside me fights wage and I'm stuck inside a cage

It feels like my soul is torn in two
And I do not know what I, should do
This is torture, I swear
This guilt I cannot bare
Inside me fights wage so when will this battle end
I have decided, I'll stick with my friends to the end

She looked up proudly, acknowledging the decision that she had decided when she gave into the rhythm and accepted what her true desires had alluded to her through song. "I will protect them! I won't let Amy get them!"

…

Sonic dragged his feet along the paved sidewalk, his head hung low. Before he knew where they were taking him, he looked up to see the familiar doorway in which he waited outside in the freezing snow not months prior. He decided to bend down and pick up a small pebble that lay next to the freshly planted flower bed. The small, multi coloured tulips were just beginning to bulb as Sonic brushed his hand lightly past them in search of a stone. He decided on one that would do the trick and picked it up in the palm of his hand, throwing it up and down a few times to test the weight and aerodynamics of it before hurling it lightly at the window. It hit its mark with a small 'clink' noise.

Sonic waited, eyes fixed on the small window pane until he noticed the silhouette of a small, fox peer out before shutting the curtains swiftly behind him. Sonic sighed in disappointment, turning around and beginning to walk back down the entrance way as he did that. Suddenly, the front door swung open slowly, revealing the golden fox that Sonic adored so much.

"Sonic, what do you want? I'm not in the mood."

"Tails, please forgive me for being so rude. I don't mean to disturb me but this can't wait. What I did to you today was truly unforgivable and much less than great. I know now that I handled the situation poorly, and for that I'm sorry. But I don't want to be your enemy, I don't want you to hate me."

Tails sighed, the sight of the one he once loved standing before him, clearly broken hearted was almost too much to bare, but he couldn't let this deter him. He was done with letting Sonic manipulate his feelings with his sweet words and lovely nothings.

"Sonic, I'm sorry but I can't keep living this fantasy. I can't keep thinking of you as my necessity. I used to be so sad, without you in my life. But after today, I see that it will lead to nothing but strife. Goodbye Sonic, this is where we part. Just know that you will always have a special place in my heart." A small, single tear slipped down his cheek as he said those final words, falling to the floor as he turned and began to close the door.

"Wait!" Sonic yelled, shoving his hand in the door way. "There is something I need to say. Just please, Tails, humor me one last time today."

"Fine. One last time. This is your last chance to say something to me while we are together, because after this, we can see each other… ever." Sonic gulped, the harsh reality and pain behind the fox's words displaying more emotions than words ever could. He knew he hurt the fox, he hurt him real bad. But he wished more than anything that Tails wouldn't stay mad. Tails' actions spoke much louder than words and Sonic knew that there was nothing he could say that would ever make it up to the fox. He decided to simply take a deep breath and let his true feelings flow from his heart.

Song 10

Stars Before Reasons
(Parody of Nothing's gonna change my love for you)

Sonic: If I had the chance to go back and reverse time
I wouldn't commit the crime
Of letting you slip away

With you I sleep so carefree, filled with safety
But I made a big mistake
Now alone I lie awake

Now that you're gone, I just don't know
My loves a rose, that needs to grow

Made you're mark, with a spark
Why'd I stand by watching you go?

Going out at night, looking at the sky,
Matching all the stars to a reason why.
you fill me with a warming feelin'
I'd run out of stars before reasons
I shouldn't have said those nasty lies,
I saw the hurt behind your eyes,
I can't hear your pleas over my cries
But now I'm the one that you despise

My love for you I tried so hard to contain,
didn't listen, just complained
I can't escape this pain
I know the road to fix this won't be easy
But I can't shake the good times from, the reaches of my memory

She was filled with jealousy
But now I only want you here with me

Made you're mark, with a spark
Why'd I stand by watching you go?

Going out at night, looking at the sky,
Matching all the stars to a reason why.
you fill me with a warming feelin'
I'd run out of stars before reasons

Tails said nothing. Sonic waited, his heart falling further and further into the pit of his stomach as he watched Tails remain static. He wasn't expecting much. Maybe Tails to yell. Maybe Tails to tell him what a horrible friend he was and slam the door in his face. Maybe anything! Anything at all. But Tails was doing nothing, and it was the worst possible thing he could do.

"Please, buddy, say something, anything! Yell, scream, cry or slam the door in my face. Punch me, kick me, berate me with words and show me why I'm such a disgrace. Just please, don't keep standing there without saying a word as it is leaving the deepest of scars."

Tails opened his mouth and simply said one phrase and instantly, Sonic's spirits lifted. "I thought you compared the reasons why you loved me to snowflakes, not stars." Sonic rushed up to the little fox and wrapped his arms around his small, weak frame as tight as he could, restricting the oxygen flow to his lungs in the process.

"Would you like to come in? Or are you just going to stand there outside my door?"

"Yes! Yes I would, I don't think I could have lasted without you much more."

Sonic's spirits were immediately filled to the brim with happiness, love and relief. As Tails led Sonic up to his room, the two fell down onto the bed, smiling warmly at each other. This flurry of emotions inside of Sonic made something in his brain click. He realized, more than anything, what he wanted, no, needed to do. This couldn't wait any longer.

"Tails," Sonic began. "I've realized that there is something that I want more than anything else right now, but I'm too afraid to ask."

"Sonic, I know that you're the most brave and strongest person I know who can accomplish any task. With me you should feel safe and secure. No matter how hard something might be for you, when we're together we can always endure."

The smile on Sonic's face grew wider and wider, threatening to fall right off, leaving nothing left. If the size was equated by amounts of helium. The balloon that would be filled by this would have escaped the stratosphere by that moment. Sonic couldn't contain it anymore and immediately broke into another song with Tails happily join him in.

Song 11

Nothing I Would Change
(Parody of Up)

Sonic: I threw a couple stones
Straight at your window pane
My love was finally shown
In the sleet, snow and rain

My heart began to swell
I loved you, I could tell
They think we should burn in hell
But on consequences we shouldn't dwell
'Cause on consequences we shouldn't dwell

Tails: I never meant to fall in love
'Cause we're taken advantage of (Sonic: By Amy)
I never meant to start it all
Couldn't keep my love in control

But we have got to
We've got to stick together
We're shrouded in the darkest secret forever
If I could do it all again
There is nothing I would do, no nothing that I would ever change

Sonic: You're good at construction
Putting up all your walls
But I would break them all, down
Without hesitation

You're so sentimental
Thought I was so mental
But this was experimental
Unfortunately they are judgmental
But what we shared wasn't accidental

Tails: I never meant to fall in love
'Cause we're taken advantage of (Sonic: By Amy)
I never meant to start it all
Couldn't keep my love in control

I thought I was smart
But then why did I take the, part
and start this whole mess, common sense is useless
If I could do it all again
There is nothing I would do, no nothing that I would ever change

Sonic: But I know, we could show, them and change all their minds
Show the flaws, make new laws, for all animal kind
Tails: And aligned, us combined can create a new place
We wouldn't have to hide in disgrace!

Sonic: Tails I love you and you love me too, so just say I do (and make love to me)

Tails: Sonic I love you, and you love me too, so I'll say I do

Both: we never meant to fall in love
'Cause we're taken advantage of
we never meant to start it all
Couldn't keep our love in control

But we have got to
We've got to stick together
We're shrouded in the darkest secret forever
If we could do it all again
There is nothing we would do, no nothing that we would ever change

It was at that moment, in that small, second story bedroom that history was made. An act of true love that transcended all barriers and proved, if not to the community, than just to the two boys that it didn't matter what gender they were, true love is a special and sacred bond shared between two individuals. There they lay, after sanctifying their devotion to each other, resting in each other's warm embrace as the sun sank into the sky.

Although the world they lived in would never accept them, and Amy would never rest until Sonic was either hers, or they were both dead, at that exact moment, both felt complete inner peace.

Song 12

Mobius
(Parody of Live and Learn)

Sonic: Can you feel love, Falling from above
ooh, I had the time of my life
yeah, yeah, yeah

Tails: Do you feel free, When you're alone with me
ooh, We are not free of this strife
Yeah!

Sonic: But I have found my soulmate
He's worth all the pain
Tails: I think it must have been fate
That had made us both go insane

Everyone: Mobius!
Silver: Best community, might I mention
Everyone: Mobius!
Shadow: I'm the best no competition
Everyone: Mobius
Amy: Sonic is my one obsession
Everyone: Mobius!
Blaze: I have a deep confession
Everyone: Woah, yeah

Sonic: Can you believe, That we got so lucky?
Tails: yeah! And nobody else will know
Ooh!

Amy: But if you make one mistake
You'll burn at the stake
Blaze: Am I becoming crazy
Now I'm my own worst enemy

Everyone: Mobius!
Alecia: Talk back and you'll get detention
Everyone: Mobius!
Big: Chaos has the best intentions
Everyone: Mobius!
Knuckles: I'm smart not dumb, it's no question
Everyone: Mobius!
Cream: Tails gave me depression
Everyone: This is Mobius! In this land we trust

Sonic: We're indeed in some need, hard to hide this
Tails: In my head we are dead if we can't hide this
Both: We need to hide this
Blaze: I can't conceal this!

Everyone: Mobius!
Amy: Better start showing affection
Everyone: Mobius!
Shadow: That blue blur's an infection
Everyone: Mobius!
Tikal: Looking at our own reflection
Everyone: Mobius!
Blaze: What do I do with information
Everyone: Mobius!
Cream: I just need his attention
Everyone: Mobius!
Silver: Just make a good impression
Everyone: Mobius!
Tails: Hard to resist temptation
Everyone: Mobius!
Sonic: Wasn't my original intention

Everyone (but Sonic and Tails): Mobius!
It's a land of Bliss
Sonic and Tails: Mobius:
Give me one last kiss!

…

Sonic and Tails shared one final kiss together, as the lights went out.
They think their love will last forever, but Blaze has her doubts.
And this is the part on their land of Mobius, in which our tale ends.
But if they leant one thing throughout this, it's that they will always be best friends!

…

Eggman: The machine is overheating
They're doing too much singing
No-one visited my musical
Now I'm really mad!

As he finished his own song, the machine burst into flames, as the flashes of red, orange and yellow embers spurting from the fire illuminated the area. Dr. Eggman sat alone, watching the screens that he place around his park, noticing that not a single person had entered that day. It appeared that his machine, although causing everyone to spontaneously jump into a choreographed and rehearsed musical number that you would see in a Disney movie, didn't generate any new customers to his musical themed park. They were all too busy figuring out how to stop the singing that they had no time to actually enjoy it.

"Maybe I'll have better luck next year," he sighed to himself, switching off the screens as he made his way to bed.

The End
(Of the musical episode. Don't worry, there are still 8 more chapters to go!)

A/N: It's finally all over and I can get back to normal writing. I hope I never see another rhyme in my life :P They cause me so much strife ;) Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed and please review. I will work as fast as I can to get the next chapter out quickly, without sacrificing any quality.

p.s: Did any of you find the sneaky frozen reference I slipped in there? Hint: Amy is the one who says it!
