"OH NO, BADNIKS!"
"RUNNNN!!"
from the nearby town, Cries and shouts occured as mobians ran. with more badniks showed themselves More of them simply hid in fear. Soon enough, the entire town became desolent, area empty with nobody around to protect it.
"M-Mommy!" A Little lime-furred rabbit would call out. She clutched her stuffed bunny tight in fear once the badniks had their sights on her. Knowing this, She quickly tried to run, Only to end up tripping in fear and harming herself. "Oof!"
Her eyes widened once She could hear stomps growing near. Clutching her eyes tight, She could only cry as badniks were alarmed of her call. "Mommy.. Please... !"
"HEY! ROBO-BOZO'S!!!"
and like that, the robots turned their gears towards another.
It was a fennec. He wore a simple red long-Sleeeved shirt with goggles. His fur was a Mix of Orange and red, With white floof riddled all on em. His shoes were simple too, Red n White with grey straps.
His name Was Alec, and what he held in his palms was some sort of a Ray-gun.
With that, the Badniks walked towards the fennec, Giving ample time for the mom to run in and get her child.
Seeing that, Alecs grin couldn't be any wider. Now He Could REALLY try out this Invention!
He turned the Volume on his Ray up past 100 as they drew near to Him. He cockily smirked, No fear resting within.
He put His goggles onto his his eyes and put a finger on the trigger. "Bring It!" He exclaimed, Light pink energy rising from the tip of His ray. "I'm not afraid of You loose screws AT ALL!!"
Once they got close enough, He pulled the trigger...
BOOOM!!
Then a explosion was sound.
Alec was a mess, Charred all black with a broken raygun in his hands.
"D-Damn..." He swore, Fear starting to rest in as he backed up. "O-Of all times...!"
With the badnik getting closer and closer, The fennec flinched and clenched his eyes shut as he prepared for the worst...
"Don't worry buddy..."
hearing such words made Alec raise a brow. Who said that?"
His answer became clear as A Blue blur appeared, Spindashing right through the enemy in front of him. Once on the ground, He turned back to the messy fennec and smiled, Giving a thumbs up.
"I'll take over now, You just get to hiding!!!"
His eyes widened as he eyed the figure. Blue Quils, Red n White shoes, and that trademark grin! It was only natural that He went agape at who it was;
"S-Sonic... The Hedgehog!!"
[...]
"Wow...So, That's T-pup? looks really cool~"
It was early in the day, Alec and Tails were in their lab room, Working on blueprints, Inventions, all that and more. Ever since last week, When Alec had that freakout and left for a while to only then come and apologize, things have gotten better ever since. Nowadays, Alec and Tails are able to work together more well, and even create things such as, A Snowball generator ray, Candy maker (that He quickly had to keep from Alecs sugar wanting hands), All sorts of stuff!
But Alecs Attention was driven from his inventions once Tails called out for some...Dog. Well, He kinda was, But all robotic, like one of those dog robot toys He seen, Bur this one was real, VERY real.
The Kitsune Petted His dog as he responded to His fennec Partner. "Yeah, He really is coool~!" He cooed.
Alec nodded in agreement as he went to pet the robbo doggo. "Kinda wish I had a pet of my own..."
At that, Tails furrowed a brow. "You never had a pet?"
Alec shook his head. "Nah, Not alot of animals really...Liked me that much."
"Im sure You weren't that bad-"
"I used to jump on the flickies and rickies and hug em tight."
"..."
Well, the fox can't be right every now and then. "That's... bad."
Alec Hmphed and crossed his arms. "Not my fault their cute."
Despite that though, Tails still had the thought in his mind.
Does Alec...Still want a pet?
as Alec got back in seat to work on a blueprint, Tails did the same, getting out new blueprint paper to sketch on... Only this time,
This was something new...something...sweet.
[...]
After Several minutes of waiting on the phone, It finally answered for the Kit. "Finally!" He cried thankfully. "Ia that You?"
it was late at night, many members of the resistance has gone home, but the fox was one of the few still awake.
"Its nice to see you too, Hey listen... can You do me a favor?
[...]
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEC!!"
To say Alec was confused was nothing less of the truth.
in front of him was many people, from knuckles, to Tangle, to cream, to even Shadow and Rouge! all here...for his birthday.
"How...did You know?" His eyes were wide and his tail was stiff.
in response, Amy rose came close, Holding a chocolate cake. "Well, Me of course!"
"Alec raised a brow. "Huh?"
Amy continued. "Well, With help of Tails reminding me, I found out Your birthday was august 3rd, thanks to reading your file!" She put the cake down on the nearest table. "Happy Birthday!
Alec could feel his tail swishing about. Chocolate cake?! He LOVED that! But before he could run to it, He looked up at Tails and Amy, and gave a geniune smile. "Thanks."
"No problem!" Tails giggled. "So How old are you now?"
to that, The Fennec Shrugged. "Dunno."
Tails face froze in giggles. "....What?"
Alec shrugged again. "Yeah, I don't know how old i am..."
Tails went to scratch his head in the utter confusion that was...that. "How...Do You not know Your age?"
"Dunno, guess its because of focusing on blueprints or whatever," he moved Past them. "CaKe TimE NOW!!!"
And Tails and Amy collectively sweatdropped. "Y-Yeah..."
But before He could get to the cake. Both held him back. "H-Hold on Alec, We Have a gift for you!"
As Knuckles chuckled at the sight, Alec sighed, a bit annoyed. "What is it, Nooooww?"
they let go, Amy's smile becoming more knowing. "You'll see~"
Tails turned his head and called out; "COME ON OUT, SONIC!"
...
Never before Alec felt his heartbeat fasten, until he heard that. "W-Wha?"
In the blink of an eye, He felt wind. it was cool, and felt rather nice. When he turned around after, The Cake that was on the table was gone!
with another touch on His shoulder, He'd turn around once again...to see Sonic the hedgehog.
SONIC, THE HEDGEHOG, holding his birthday cake.
"Heya Alec!" He said, His manner as it always was; Cool. "Been a while, Hasn't it?"
Alec's tail swished ever more Faster.
on the cake was now candles, nine to be exact. All of them were lit too.
Sonic's grin got wider. "Let's celebrate, shall we?"
And Alec nodded in response. "Y-Yeah!"
Today was slowly starting out to become a great day...
[...]
after singing together, blowing out candles, and eating the cake, the party grew more lively. Some others like cream, marine, and charmy were playing party games, while others just conversed, like knuckles, rouge, amy, Sonic And Shadow.
"Enjoying the party Shads?~"
"Tch, It's alright i guess." As usual, He had that annoyed look. "I don't even know why i came here..."
Rouge turned to him. "For the cake right? You looove cake~"
"..." Sonic quickly rubbed his eyes, because swore he just saw shadows cheeks turn RED for a second! "Y-Yeah..."
Rouge chuckled a bit before turning back to knux.
"So...You like cake, Eh? didnt take you for someone with a sweet too-"
"Shut it faker, I won't hesitate to drop kick you."
"..."
Meanwhile with Alec however, He was opening presents.
"Alright, Alec. " Tails said, Walking towards him with a present in hand. "I hope you can enjoy this one. Put a lot of thought into it!"
Alec Raised a brow as He grabbed the box. "Really?"
Tails nodded. "Really."
Now with his attention towards the box, He raised a brow as he opened it up.
what was inside was a pet, looking feline like. His fur was all orange like, alongside His resting figure was a collar. On it, lied a name, "Pumpkin".
Alec slowly turned to tails. "D...Did You...?"
Tails nodded once again, Smiling bright as ever. "Yup! Just as I have a robot dog, I made You a Robot cat pet!"
As to Alecs response... He firmly hugged the kit. "T-Thank You...!"
Tails eyes went wide at first, but he closed them, and hugged back softly. "No problem~"
And it was a day, Alec was glad to consider a good birthday.
[...]
"Kit! Kiiit!"
Racing to the halved Boulder, Alec held two plates of cake, One for himself, and another for that lil blue gumdrop known Kitsunami.
"Its my birth-" He halted in his words, not seeing the fennec anywhere. "Day....?"
at that he raised a brow, Kit was late again? It was weird, He and him would Always meet at 10!
it's been like this for the past few weeks for some reason...
Alec frowned, but he quickly shook out of it. "Maybe he'll be here soon this time...? Yeah, Y-Yeah, He will... I-Its my special ay after all! He CANT miss that...!"
And so, Alec sat down with a hopeful smile, waiting for His friend...
and Waiting...
and Waiting...
and Waiting...
and Waiting...
and Waiting...
and Waiting, Even once it stroke 4:00 am.
[...]
Opening the door to His house at a mere 5:00, The fennec wiped his teary eyes as he shut the door.
His mind was riddled in many things;
Why did Kit not show up?
why cant he answer the phone?
is it dead?
Did He do something?
Did He upset him in anyway?
Was giving Him his phone too weird?
M-Maybe it was... Him.
Idiot, Idiot!
He shouldn't been so stupid
and Now, He lost a friend![\i]
Alec whimpered as the negative thoughts began to pool in, all of which making him the cause of why Kit never came.
("It was my fault...I'm so stupid!")
worthless.
trash.
a toxic priority to whoever comes in your reach!
a miserable waste of-
"Mrr~"
He was snapped out of His thoughts by Pumpkin, The cat in hand laying besides him in a cute manner.
it was calm, Graceful, and soothing, enough to forget about fears and worries for a while.
to that, Alec smiled.
He petted pumpkin, and laid behind him, soon resting.
all else considered. it was a good birthday till the end...
