Pretty. The descriptive word was the only thing that came into Tails mind. He never anticipated the HQ to look so pretty. There was a huge flower bed surrounding it and water seemed to be flowing through. Choa's were seen playing in a pond. Which had clear water?! Save to say that Tails was so amazed. Ever since the war began, the world had crumbled into ruins. Any building he ever passed by succumbed to rubble.

Except the building right in front of him. It was tall and the whole building was still intact. Tails was amazed by how the resistance managed to keep such a place well hidden. Tails was enamored by every small detail of the HQ which made him fail to realize all the people staring at him.

As he looked up at the building, people stared down on him. The crowd had begun to take out their weapons. Everyone knew of the misdeeds the kitsunes had brought upon them. Everyone hated them. The more steps the kitsune took, the more people began to get nervous.

Tails paid no mind to the resistance members. His mind was still in awe of the beauty of the place. He never saw anything so pretty. His admiration came to halt when he felt something hit his head. He turned around to find a giant crowd glaring daggers at him. This situation is eerily familiar to him. He doesn't understand why.

Let out a nervous laugh before taking a few steps backwards. His back came in contact with the HQ's front door. The crowd were ready to charge towards him before a familiar streak of blue came in between the two.

"Woah woah there guys! That's not a good way to treat a new guest!" Sonic motioned towards Tails who just waved. A bit freaked out by the incident.

"That 'guest' is the enemy!" A mobian from the crowd shouted. The rest of the crowd yelled a collective 'yeah'. Tails is beginning to regret following Sonic.

"He's not! Tails over here is a nice kitsune!" Sonic said. As he spoke the crowd of mobains kept coming closer. Tails was terrified. All of them had the means necessary to actually kill him. He never encountered so many people who could actually kill him. Tails was scared. (Somehow he feels as if dying isn't the only reason he's scared.)

Sonic noticed this. He saw how the fox began to shake a bit and his eyes began to get glossy. The hedgehog turned to face the crowd once more. It was obvious that they had no intentions of backing down. Sonic was friends with all these people, but for a mysterious reason he felt compelled to protect Tails. Even if it meant fighting everyone.

He bent his knees and got in his running position. Sonic never fully understood the phrase 'I'll fight the whole world for you' until this moment. Everyone could see the lightning sparks coming from the hero. The crowd stopped taking its steps forward.

Sonic never went against them. He never made any attempt to fight them. The only exception would be Knuckles or the ultimate lifeform himself. Some mobians began to hesitate going after the kitsune, but others didn't hesitate. Before the two parties were able to start their fight, a loud slam could be heard coming from the entrance.

"Now is there anyone who wants to tell me what's going on." The voice boomed across the yard. From the sound of the voice, everyone stopped what they were doing. They all remained silent.

"I SAID! WHO WANTS TO TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON?" The voice yelled. Tails could hear the voice coming from behind him so he slowly turned around to face the voice. It was a pink hedgehog.

"Y-yes Ma'am! Sonic let a kitsune into the base!" A random mobian spoke up. Sonic glared into the crowd. Thanks for calling me out.

"HE WHAT?!" The pink hedgehog yelled. Before her eyes settled on Tails. If Tails was scared of the crowd before, he was mortified by this hedgehog. On first inspection the hedgehog looked cute and kind, but her eyes tell another story.
