It was late at night, Tom, Maddie, Knuckles, and Shadow were watching tv, looking for a good movie (it was movie night after all!) Knuckles was eating some grapes, Shadow was relaxing, waiting for the movie to be chosen, while Maddie and Tom sat together picking out a movie. Sonic had declined, having pains all over his body, Tails had only left to go check on him, but suddenly, Tails ran in, looking terrified..

"TOM!" He says, startling everyone. Shadow opened his eyes, not seeming shocked but more annoyed, Knuckles had dropped his grapes, and was now mourning them, and Tom looked towards Tails.

"Oh Tails, you gave me a scare, whats wrong?"

"It’s Sonic! hes- ... I don't know how to explain it-”

“I just need you and shadow to come help him!”

Shadow raised an eyebrow, looking towards tails. "Why me?"

"So you can hold him down."

Everyone went silent at that.

Tom and Shadow walked with Tails, now outside of Sonic's room. Tails holds one of his tails close, hiding the scratch inflicted by Sonic.

"I'm not going any further… just be careful." Tails says, going downstairs, leaving Tom and Shadow alone.

If Tails was too afraid to even see Sonic? Something was horribly wrong…
