Chelsea hedgehog: Hello everyone! Sorry for the extremely long months without updates. I decided to make a tragic story that may make you cry. But don't worry, you'll get over it. Here it goes! Remember, this story is told from Tail's point of view. I've inserted myself into it also.
It's been a year since I've been on my own. I thought I wouldn't be able to go on. I had been living with Cream and her mom Vanilla ever since the "disaster" happened. I couldn't help but cry every time I saw memories of him. His name would never leave my head. I remember it like yesterday…
It was raining…Cold rain. It was taking him so long to return. I couldn't help but wonder…wonder if he was going to be alright…he hasn't returned in hours. Is he…? No, can't be.
I ran to the Tornado…couldn't stand it anymore. He had to be alright…I know he had to be alive, he just had too be. He's Sonic the hedgehog, for crying out loud! Nobody can defeat him!
I brought along Cream, Amy, and Chelsea with me. Then we took off, soaring through the sky. I didn't care about leaving without permission. My mind was racing too fast…I was too worried.
He told me that he was going to take a trip to the other side of Station Square. I squeezed the handles…He was too fast to take this long. Then my eyes caught something below…but it wasn't the blue hedgehog that I knew for who-knows-what. Instead, it was something I hoped to avoid seeing.
The Ambulance!
I landed the top of a building and took the girls off and put them on the ground, even though Chelsea refused to go with Amy. Hehe…girls…just too stubborn to get along.
I walked…no ran to the ambulance. There was a large crowd around me…swarming around the victim and ambulance truck. They were all talking. Then, I heard a little girl say something that gave me a hint that my life was going to change forever.
"Will Sonic be okay mom?" The girl asked.
Sonic…Sonic! My mind snapped when I heard Sonic's name. I instantly pushed through the crowd of children and adults…not caring if I pushed someone down. When I made it through…I saw something that changed my life forever…
Sonic was lying down in a large puddle…a puddle of blood. He looked as if he was ran over by a truck, only worse. I ran to him… No…please be alright…please be alright! I kneeled down…Not caring that my knees were now getting splashed by blood…not even caring that is was staining my legs. I grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him, blood dripping from his mouth.
"Sonic! Sonic answer me! Answer me please! Please!" I yelled, tears cascading down my cheek and into the puddle of blood. His eyes began to open so slightly…enough for me to see his eyes, his green eyes…what once were so confident were now filled with fear and sadness. He opened his mouth and whispered.
"Tails…" Was all he could say.
"Sonic your going to make it…You will make it Sonic! Just hold on!" I yelled, crying freely not caring that the citizens were both watching me.
"No Tails…I'm not going to make it…I'm going to go soon Tails…I'm going to see my family again."
"No Sonic! Don't say that!"
"Tails…you know I can't lie to you. It's the truth…I will pass away…nobody can stop death…not even you or I."
"Sonic just…J-just shut up! You are going to make it Sonic, promise me you'll make it!"
Sonic frowned…in a long time. He then began to cough. But in all his coughs he coughed up more blood.
"Tails…that is a promise…I can't keep."
"Sonic…" I cried, wailing onto his wounded stomach.
"Tails…I would have never made it this far…never would have survived…never enjoy the adventures, saving the world, and have made any friends…without you Tails."
"What do you means Sonic?" I asked. I could tell that I was probably as important to him as he was important to me.
"Tails…you made my life worth living for…you made me a legend Tails…you made me the person who I am today. You made the hero…but Tails…the role of being a hero belongs to you." Sonic told me and grinned. He grinned even though he was near death. How could he grin?
"Sonic…please…"
"Tails you have to promise me…promise me you'll end all this madness…promise to keep everyone safe…promise to be a good friend. Do me one last favor. I want my grave to be in Emerald Hill zone…where we had our first race together and went on out first adventure with each other. I want to be buried where the moon shines the lightest, where we both sat together and counted the stars."
I knew there was no use in arguing about him living. He was in no condition to survive any longer.
"Yes Sonic…I promise."
Sonic grinned again.
"Thanks little buddy…" He said. Then he began to cough up blood again…oh why he couldn't stop? He didn't stop coughing. He finally stopped in a few seconds.
"Sorry Tails…It's time for me to go…I'm sorry I couldn't stay longer." Sonic said…his voice fading ever so much.
"Sonic!" The tears returned to my eyes and poured into the blood, washing it into a nearby sewer.
"Goodbye Tails. I'll always be with you. I have to go no-But before he could finish, he his sentence, began to cough up more blood. He wouldn't stop…He couldn't stop. Then, his eyes stared up at the grey sky…but he wasn't at all moving. He was cold…dead cold in Tails arms.
"Sonic! Sonic!" I yelled, crying my eyes out while shaking him. He didn't respond. He didn't talk. He didn't move.
Someone placed a hand on my shoulder. I looked up into her eyes. She closed them and shook he head. I knew what the sign meant. He was gone.
Sad isn't it. I cried myself when I wrote this. Anyway, this is supposed to be a three-chapter-story. Please review… I wrote this story since someone I've known died only a few weeks ago. She was a close friend to my mom and dad and the rest of my family members. Wait to the next chap!
