Hmmmmm...

Howdy there!

I think I should change my competitve Pokemon..Haxorus isn't competitive viable and people are not talking much about him. I was thinking of going with either Salamence or Garchomp.

Leaning towards Garchomp since he'll be coming to Pokemon SwSh through DLC. But I dunno :/

Anyways! Let's get on with the story!

Tails gasped for air as he slowed down, his lungs burning and his feet aching. Despite this, He continued to run for his life. He knew that he'll get caught if he stops for even a second, Like for Chaos sake! He was being chased by a huge green crocodile! Who wouldn't run?

But Tails wasn't running because there was a huge green crocodile after him. But he was running because he knew who they were...

The Chaotix, A trio of detectives for hire known for their goofy yet competent work. There was Vector the crocodile, their leader, Espio the chameleon, their investigator and he believes the bee was Charmy, who was a tracker. They might not look like it, But Tails knew they were a fearsome bunch and he didn't want any trouble with them.

But he was already running from them and that's enough trouble for today. He knew he should have come clean but what can he do? He panicked and ran away. It was too late to turn around and just surrender

Tails glanced back, he felt like he has been running for an hour. Surely they got tired and lost him? Yeah..but the chance of that happening is like 1 in 4000 but Tails glanced black just to be sure, aaannndddd...

To his surprise, no one was following him.

Does that mean that Tails has been running for no reason? Or has he lost them and he was out of their sight? He sighed as he found a tree near a cliff and decided to rest there. His lungs were burning and his throat was dry yet his mind couldn't help but wonder.

They were the Chaotix, right? Why have they not chased him? unless, he was so fast that he lost them. There was no way that Tails, a little fox just outran a trio of competent detectives. One of them was even a ninja!

But he knew that they will be looking for him so he needed to get back to the doctors lair. Standing to his feet, he made sure no one was there and quietly stood up. Oh boy, How will the doctor react if he knew that his assistant was running from the Chaotix. But it's not like he did anything wrong. Right?

Well, he did run away from them. That's more than enough to raise suspicion.

"Impressive"

Tails eyes widened, he spun around and saw the purple chameleon above him, standing on one of the branches "Your speed is almost the same as Sonic's. Who are you? and why did you run?"

How!? He was sure he lost them! How did this Chameleon find him? Then it clicked, He was a Chameleon, being able to camouflage into his surroundings and surprise his enemies. Tails didn't answer, instead he took a step back as Espio jumped down. The chameleon examined the fox in front of him, the fox was about 8 or 9 years old but what concerned Espio the most is the bruises and cuts that littered all over him.

"Why did you take those drawings?" Espio asked, Tails gulped. Here he was, caught by one of the Chaotix. And just when he thought he managed to outrun them. Tails cursed himself for being too careless. He now knew to never underestimate the Chameleon. But his mind wondered, Who was Sonic? and his speed was the same as his? did he run THAT fast? Tails noticed the Chameleon was still waiting for an answer and he was too exhausted to run away. Might as well do what he says than causing more trouble.

"Th-these are mine" Tails answered but avoiding giving away his name, his voice sounded hoarse as he clutched the drawings close to his chest. Espio raised an eyebrow, so his suspicions were confirmed. This fox was in fact the person they were looking for. But Espio has not seen him hanging around Sonic, so why was this fox so important to the hedgehog that made him determined to search for him?

"Do you know who Sonic the hedgehog is?"

Tails was now confused. Again with that name? who was this Sonic? was he like..some kind of idol? a hero? "Who?"

This time, Espio was caught off guard. Who on earth does not know who Sonic the hedgehog is? has this fox been living under a rock for his entire life?

Oh wait. That's true

But he had no time to waste. He had to bring this fox to Sonic. After that, he would like to ask Sonic some questions later "I'm sorry but can you come with us? Sonic has been searching all over for you" Espio said. Tails perked at the mention of that name. Again? Just who is this Sonic that the Chameleon keeps mentioning about? was he a friend? But Tails was snapped out of his thoughts as Espio grabbed his arm. Oh no. He needed to escape!

"Espio! Did you find him?" Vector asked as he and Charmy just arrived, panting. As Espio turned to Vector to answer him, Tails used the opportunity to create a distraction. Using his twin tails, Tails kicked up dust in front of him. Causing Espio to instinctively jump away as he thought the fox was about to attack him. Before Vector and Charmy could react, Tails was already running again. The duo tried to grab him but Tails managed to duck down under Vectors grasp and dodge Charmy. The two were a literal mess as Tails kept dodging them

Espio on the other hand was stunned at how swift the fox was, not only being able to break from his grasp but also dodge both Charmy and Vector. Espio noted how Tails mostly used his..well..twin tails in those situations. Perhaps if he could immobilize those two tails, he would be able to capture him no problem. He would need to inform this to Sonic later. But then, Espio realized that he just let the little fox escape.

"Damn it!"

"Ah Charmy! how could you let him get away?!" Vector cried as he pointed an accusing finger at the bee

"Me? It was your fault!"

Espio once again face palmed. He literally watched his teammates spinning around in place just to capture the fox. Perhaps he should not be impressed how the fox was able to escape THOSE TWO. Like he said...

"I work with idiots"

Tails looked around to make sure he wasn't being watched, he had to be careful since the last time he encountered Espio, Once he was sure he wasn't being followed, Tails grinned as he ducked down into a hidden passage inside a tree. Now knowing that he is well hidden, he was finally able to stop running and started to relax a bit. You see, Tails is a genius. He knew the forest like the back of his hands. Exploring the area and even creating hidden passage ways and shortcuts, it was just easier finding for food and going back home without anyone noticing you. Because he knew he was not liked by the inhabitants due to his love for inventing so it was just better to not run into them at all. Especially his own species.

He knew that the Chaotix would be looking for him, but he doubts that even the detectives knew about the hidden passage that Tails built before. That takes care of that but now a new problem arises in his head. What reason should he give the doctor about his disappearance? Like...He just needed to go back and grab some things? That would be the most logical reason but if the doctor had already woken up several hours ago, he would need to come up with another reason since it took him so long to get back to the lair. Hanging out with friends?

Oh wait. Tails Doesn't have any friends. (Like me :D)

Tails was busy thinking about a reason that he didn't notice someone was following him.

Snap!

Tails heard a stick snap behind him. His body tensed as he turned around to see who was behinds him but no one was there. That's weird...was it just his imagination? Tails decided to ignore it and continued making his way through the tunnel. With his drawings safely tucked in his hands, Tails calculated how long will it take for him to reach the other side based on his position in the tunnel right now.

"Let's see...If I can make it out of here, I should end up back in the cave in less than 2 minutes." Tails whispered to himself

"Oh so that's where this passage leads to?" a voice behind him made Tails stop dead in his tracks. It can't be. The only one who knows about this passage is him! Tails slowly turned around to see the owner of the voice. To his horror, a blue hedgehog was casually standing behind him.

Oh no...

I'mma stop here since I have work to do later..I also need to sleep
