Warm sunlight filters through your eyelids. A soft breeze rustles the grass beneath you. That’s odd. You don’t remember falling asleep outside.
You shift, something flicking behind you. Twice.
Wait… twice?
Your eyes snap open, and you bolt upright. This isn’t your room. The sky is too blue, the grass too vibrant. The air hums with energy, a mix of nature and something… mechanical. This isn’t home.
Then you see your hands—covered in golden fur.
Your breath catches. A tail twitches behind you. Another follows. You scramble up, heart pounding as you take in your reflection in the clear surface of a nearby lake.
Large blue eyes. Fluffy ears. Two identical tails.
You're not just any fox—you’re Tails.
No. Not exactly. You’re an older female version of him, around 16.
"Uh… hey?"
A familiar voice makes you whirl around. Tails stands a few feet away, staring at you in utter disbelief. His ears flick back in confusion, and his tails swish behind him.
"Okay, I was not expecting this today," he mutters, stepping closer. "Who are you? And… why do you look like me? but female... and... older...?"
Good question. You have no idea.
Realization comes upon you.. you're still you—in a completely different body, in a completely different world, with no way back.
So… what now?
