Letters to You
by Snow Blade
Chapter 1: Unforgotten
Sonic's POV
It's been years now. I've fought off Dr. Eggman for the last final time, and now Mobious and Earth are safe, that is until a new evil would have to set a plan. Then I would just speed on over to his base, make fun of him, and beat him up. Man, that would be so fun...
I'm just on the beach of Westside Island, getting another sun bathed tan like always. Its always so fun and relaxing, but it is always missing someone. Someone who would be playing out in the ocean, and hopefully not get caught by one of Eggman's robotic sharks, where thus I would save him. But no, he's not here... A dear friend I once knew...
No one knows what happened to my best friend... Even me being the hero I am, I searched for countless hours trying to find him. Some say he died off the cliff of Mystic Ruins. A few say he ran away to die because he said he was too confused with life...he was a growing boy after all...its possible but its been years now... A teen like me, I know that feeling...
I'm surprised that Egghead didn't try to kidnap him either. All he does is go after Amy just because he "thinks" I'm her boyfriend. Pfft, yeah right.
But still I miss the two tailed fox and his caring spirit, his two tails flying in the blazing sunlight. He's in my mind every night and day. I'm always hoping for his safety and his life wherever he is. Even if a few said he ran away just to get away from me...I'm his best friend. Why would he ever do that?
That's what I've thought to myself every waking day now. Always wondering what happened to my special friend...will he ever return?
I doubted my last thoughts, because it was then I got a letter from that special someone. The one I was hoping I would see again. Was the letter real or fake? I wouldn't know until I read it. And its not weird for a hedgehog to have a mailbox either.
My heart ached and raced as I approached the mailbox. I then opened it, the sender was from Tails, but the address was unfamiliar to me. It didn't matter...all I knew that Tails was at least alive, and he cared enough to send me a letter. So after countless thinking I opened up the letter, the white marble paper with fine black print. The words were written smoothly and perfectly, it was his hand writing, and I could wipe my hand across it where he once touched it...
I began to read...
Dear Sonic,
I don't know what to say to you. Its been as long as I can remember since the last time I saw you. Its Tails if you couldn't tell from the letter, but this letter is to tell you I'm alive and well. I am doing fine, but I am very far away. You must have questioned the address, its alright. I am very far away, even your speed would have a hard time getting here, but I want to tell you why I've been gone for so long, without a trace. It just feels so good writing to you again too. Anyway, Sonic, before I tell you why I've been gone so long...I want to hear back from you and see how your doing, if your mad at me, or if you even received this letter. I know your dying to know, but I just want to be safe. I'm sure this letter has made your day too, hearing from me. But I just wanted you to know your still my best friend and I haven't forgotten you, not one bit. So I'll clear it up, I'll be awaiting your response. Good bye for now.
Sincerely your best friend,
Miles "Tails" Prower
That was all the letter said, about the size of two paragraphs. He admitted a lot from his soul. I'm sure he would had told me his life story if he could, but he focused on the better things. I will have to include a lot, just to make him happy.
He did seem happy actually, and I am just as happy. After reading that it felt like I had recovered a stolen feeling from my heart. I'm regaining someone I lost. Someone who was once close to me. I want to tell him about all my past adventures, when I finally beat Eggman where he could never cause harm again. How I've saved countless other people from other troubles. How I've managed to help them and make this world a better place. To show him how all of the others are doing, the ones he once knew before he disappeared that cold autumn day. It just feels so good to read his thoughts and let them carry me through ecstasy.
All the others were wrong. He didn't disappear because of me, or else he would had never contacted me, and talk to me so cunningly. I knew they were wrong, no one can ever know or come between a bond between two best friends.
Heh, I may feel happier then I ever did, but a hole is still there. The reason he disappeared, and the reason he never responded back to anyone these past couple of years.
So I grabbed a pencil, and I begin to jolt down words. Where I tell him about my adventures, emotions, life, and anything else that can come to my mind. I want him to catch up on what I've done. Feelings for my once best friend, our friendship is returning, knowing that it is always unbreakable and eternal.
Well, I am destined to find out what happened to him, and travel the world just to find him. I won't let our friendship die again because this blue hedgehog can run faster then you think...
