--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You reach to the end of the RUINS and are standing in front of the door, it towers over you and you are filled with curiosity, anxiety, and loneliness. That feeling trumps them all, visions of Cosmo's face comes back to mind the kindness she showed you, the protection, and the comfort she brought when you were upset. Now all of that was gone, you could go back but you remember her words....
"....When you leave, do not return...." You promised yourself that you would never forget her or all the kindness that she had shown you, you have to move on with only good memories of your time with her, going back would only break her heart even more. The door is behind you now, you start to make you way through this new area, the first thing you notice about this new place is that it's very cold. The snow crunches underneath your feet, its very strange seeing this white substance on the ground inside of a mountain even, but its strangeness only makes you even more intrigued about the world below. You hold yourself close trying to hold in all of your body heat as you make your way down this snowy tundra it then enters your mind that you have no idea where your going, in the RUINS you at least had an end goal to find Cosmo, but here its all a mystery to you. Ironically this path your on has only one direction, and its leading to a bridge that you can cross over, best to stay on it until otherwise.
Crunch-Crunch-Crunch-Crunch. Your footprints echo around this lonely path, not even the trees stops the sounds from reverberating back to you.
Crunch-Crunch-Crunch-Crunch. You wish Cosmo was here to break the silence, but you decide to think about something else, like how storks get their babies.
Crunch-Crunch-Crunch-Crunch. This question actually makes you stop for a second, how do storks get their babies? Do they have storks for that to, or do humans give it to them as thanks for delivering their babies?
Crunch-Crunch-Crunch.... You wish your feet stopped making noise so that you could think about this quest- Wait... Your feet are on the ground and they are not moving you start to get a chill and not from the cold air. You quickly turn around to see your shadow, but to your surprise nothing was there, you let out an awkward laugh as you continue your walk slightly paranoid.
Crunch-Crunch-Crunch-Crunch. You turn around again but the person, or thing, disappears once again. This is making you scared, this thing is stalking you... Watching your every moves, its like it knows when your going to do something and is one step ahead of you. You start to walk again, which then turns into a run.
Crunch,Crunch,Crunch,Crunch,Crunch! Your panicked state causes you to fall to the ground, in fear you quickly scramble back up and turn around, surely now they would slip up and try to catch you! However much to your dismay the thing following you seemingly vanishes again leaving you more frustrated then scared, you have to catch this person now! After dusting yourself off from the snow, you think for a second, that thing is probably watching you laughing at your confusion then again it may just be your imagination... (You have a very vivid one!)
Your eyes wander and you see a way to find out if you are being chased, a lonely twig on the ground!
'This'll definitely work, if they step on it, i'll know that i'm being stalked!' You think to yourself, as you place the in front of you and step over it.
Crunch-Crunch-Crunch-Crunch.... 'Cmon I know you want to do it... I dare you...' You think as you wait for a different sound.
Crunch-Crunch-Crunch, SNAP! You turn around yet again and see that the brown sticky object has been broken, someone is following you! At first you feel accomplished, but then your feeling of pride turns to fear again, now that you have this information you know that your being watched, and being stalked by a Monster or Mobian.
You regret finding out this information....
You start to run again!
CRUNCH,CRUNCH,CRUNCH,CRUNCH!
Its gaining on you, you know it!
CRUNCH,CRUNCH,CRUNCH,CRUNCH!
You start to pant, you want to stop and catch your breath, but you can almost feel the thing right on you!
CRUNCH,CRUNCH,CRUNCH,CRUNCH!
Your only way out is the bridge in front of you, the bars are wide enough so that you can squeeze through, you hope the Monster is too big!
CRUNCH,CRUNCH,CRUNCH,CRUNCH!
You reach the bridge, and you get a smile on your face, your saving grace is only a few steps away! 'Hmm..?' Whats wrong? 'Why cant I move...?' Your body, for some reason, has stopped right in front of the bars. You strain to move your legs, but their dead still you are stuck... 'Is this.... the monsters doing?' You think to yourself.
Crunch..... Crunch...... Crunch......
Your heart stops, you can feel the Monsters eyes pierce through the back of your skull, you can feel it reading your mind knowing how scared you are, how confused you are, and how helpless you are. You breath shakily as it approaches closer, what does it want from you, why is it after you?
Crunch.... Crunch..... Step.....
Its on the bridge with you, standing right behind you, your heart starts beating again at an ungodly pace as you feel the monsters breath on your neck, you hear it speak for the first time its voice sends a crawling feeling up your back.
"Human...." It says in a deep distorted voice, you gulp at the word, it knows what you are you want Cosmo here with you comforting you and fighting off this Monster. But nobody came...
"Don't you know.... how to greet a new friend...?" 'Friend?' You think to yourself, how does this 'thing' expect you to be a friend? It was chasing you down like a hound dog, and it stalked you, if it wanted to be friends it just could've done it normally a handshake not chasing you down! Ironically, the next words that came out of their mouth were exactly what you were thinking.
"Turn around... and shake my hand..." You don't want to listen to the figure, but your body moves on its own, its like it's controlling you from the inside. As you turn you see it for the first time, its not as big as you imagined in fact its only a little taller than you and is well shaped, it wears an unzipped jacket with a hood covering his face. In the darkness of the hood, a pearly white smirk is seen and nothing else, on top of the hood two ears are poking out slightly twitching at the coldness. Two long furry objects lay on the bridge and are attached to him and it wears red and white sneakers, what kind of freak is this thing, it extends its hand out to you which is covered in a white glove. Your body is shaking, your terrified, you want to run you want to push it away and run as fast as you can! But your body is still out of your control, it slowly extends your hand to theirs and you look at the creature dead in the eyes.
You grab ahold of its hand, and you feel a shock run through your hand and it spreads throughout your whole body! 'It's killing me... I cant let go, its grip is to strong...!' You get control back into your body and you use your other hand to try and pry off the gloved death trap, you struggle with all your might, but to no avail!
'Is this... how I die...? To the first thing I see in this new place...?' You think as the buzzing continues throughout your body, you give up not because you want to, its because you think you can do the same thing with Cosmo make it happen all over again. You'll be smarter this time, and you'll beat this thing, you get that same feeling of Determination goes through your veins and you wait for sweet release. But it's taking a long time, how weak is this thing, it lets go of your hand and starts chuckling a little bit.
You feel confused, a little bit peeved as well, but more confused.
"Heh... The old joy-buzzer trick, thought you might appreciate it heard it was an old human trick from my friend." It's voice has turned from deep and distorted, to regular and clear, you think that you maybe you were overreacting and start to calm down.
"I heard that it gets em every time!" The now friendly monster says putting the joy buzzer in his jacket pocket.
"You were running way to fast, tried to stop you so I could tell you that I was a friend but then I remembered that trick! I'm so glad you stopped!" They look at you and they tilt their head to the side.
"Why ya looking at me like that?" They must be talking about your fearful expression, you gesture to their hood and they facepalm themselves.
"Yeah, duh the hood, you must be so scared sorry!" The figure takes off the hood and you can clearly see their face, they have blue eyes, and three little hairs sticking out of their head they seem to be covered in orange fur with a white patch around their mouth with whiskers! Their smirk hasn't faded throughout the conversation in fact its breaking out in a full on smile!
"Haven't fully introduced myself, names Miles Prower, but you can call me Tails on account of these two..." He raises up the two long fluffy objects off the bridge, and continues. "... tails, ya get it?" You nod your head chuckling at the pun.
"Ah see! Your warming up to me already!" He smiles and asks for your name, which you give.
"Hmm... That's a pretty 'cool' name... Anyways your a human right?" You nod.
"I'm a Mobian, a fox Mobian anyways, and i'm suppose to be on the lookout for people like you. But you seem pretty 'chill' for a human, so I guess I can let ya 'slip' by me." Tails jokes, which makes you smile even more, you cant believe you were scared of him at first.
"Now my sister...." He looks over to the side. "She's a human hunting fanatic.... at least at first..." He looks back at you then perks up, you see his ears twitch.
"Actually I think that's Cream over there!" Cream? The name is strange, but you find it funny and cute.
"I have an idea, go through this checkpoint." You look at it and get a puzzled look.
"Yeah Cream made that so if a human came by it would make a sound, but uh, what sound it makes we don't know..." You shrug and cross the bridge with Tails behind you, now friends and not stalker and stalkee. You reach an opening with a wooden guard post and a rock that looks kinda like you in some way.
'Creepy...' You think. Tails then speaks up totally fine but in a haste. "Quick behind that conveniently shaped rock!" You quickly run over to the rock and stay perfectly still as you hear someone else enter the clearing, Tails begins to talk with his sister.
(*Whisper* For those of you who want to know how BoneTrousle sounds like on Sega Genesis... Creator is OJ Steve, give them support on their music, they work hard, and i'll be using them to help immerse yourself better. Okay bye...)
"Sup, sis?"
"You know exactly whats, 'sup', Tails!" The voice sounds high pitched and younger, clearly Tails is the older one.... Right?
"You've been slacking again on your duties! What if a Human comes by?"
"I'm on break..."
"Break?! You've been on break for the past 6 months!"
"More jobs means more break time, sorry sis, but don't worry if a human comes through here i'll 'tail' ya..." She groans in frustration and you can hear a loud crunch in the snow as she stamps her foot down.
"There you go again making those terrible animal puns! Is that what you do all day!?"
"No... Not all day, sometimes I stare at this rock." You can feel him gesture to you. "Wanna look at it with me?"
"No! I don't- We don't have time for that, we need to stay vigilant in case a human passes by!"
"Don't worry sis, unlike this rock, i'll stay 'sharp'..." You can feel Cream's anger rising.
"Your not helping Tails, you lazy pile of fur! I have to be the one, I must be the one! To capture a human!" She goes on. "Then I the Terrific Cream and my partner Cheese will be able to join the Royal Guard!" You hear another voice. "Chao, Chao!" Its very high pitched and just as hyped up as Cream!
"We will have the people come by and ask us to be our friend every day, we will be bathed in glory by morning and showered in praise every night!"
"Hmm.... I think that this rock can help you!" Creams anger comes back.
"Once again... Not Helping! It's like you get lazier and lazier every day!"
"You know me Cream, when it comes to work i'm quite a-'paw'-ling..." You feel like a rim shot was just played.
"Tails!" She grits her teeth. "*Sigh* Why must you make such terrible puns around me?!"
"I don't know..."
"Well figure it out, maybe that'll give you something to do instead of lazing about."
"Sorry I don't 'carrot' about it.."
"Ugh! I guess I asked for that one... I'm going to go attend to my puzzles, and you should as well! 'Hop' to it Tails!" She leaves with a hearty laugh, while Tails just stands there still smirking.
"Alright come on out!" Tails instructs you to leave you hiding place, and you talk to him some more.
"Better hurry before she comes back, otherwise you'll be forced to listen to my amazing humor some more." You agree and almost leave, but Tails speaks up again before you go into the next area.
"Actually.... I know this seems a little sudden, but can you do me a favor?" You turn to face him, and nod your head.
"I was thinking... and I think that its time my sister got out of her funk ya know?" He scratches his head. "She's never seen a human before and uh.... kinda gets the wrong opinion about them. Seeing you will help her get the right idea, don't worry she's harmless even on the rare occasion when she does get angry..."
You nod your head again, not entirely knowing what he means by 'the wrong opinion...' he smirks again, happy your helping him out. "Thanks pal, i'll be up ahead..." Ironically he goes the opposite way, leaving you alone yet again. You go to the next area, seeing another sparkling light, you touch and think about the convenient rock that guised you it fills you with that same determination from before. You think that maybe this is whats saving you, 'Determination.....' you think 'What exactly is it...?' it hurts your head thinking about it, you decide to move on despite your curiosity. As you walk some more you can see Cream and Tails talking to one another, this is the first time you've seen Cream, she's small and has cream colored fur (Hmm... That's convenient...) and brown eyes, she also appears to be wearing a orange chest piece and teal skirt with a teal scarf to match. Wearing her orange and yellow shoes she stands next to Tails standing on her tiptoes trying to speak in a direct tone, she has a little creature, which you think its name was Cheese making their names more of a pun than before.
"So as I was saying about Blaze..." She starts to say, then she notices you, you two lock eyes and you see that she loses her spiteful nature and its replaced with curiosity, and.... fear? She turns to Tails who turns to look at you, the smirk still on his face as he turns back to Cream, they do it over and over until they turn their backs to you. You can hear their conversation.
"T-Tails... Is that a *gulp* Human...?!"
Tails looks over his shoulder giving you a look and mouthing "Watch this..." to you.
"Uhhh... No I think that's a rock..." There was a rock behind you, you giggle.
"No! The thing in front of the rock, fish-brain!"
"Oh yeah, I guess that is a human..." You can see her shudder, your confused again, she was ready to catch a human what happened?
"W-What do I do...?" Cream whispers to her brother.
"Why you askin me? Your the one with all the training!" Tails acts scared, which makes Cream panic.
"I-I have b-but.... I've never come face to face with one!"
"Hmm.... I got an idea, test them with you puzzles, that'll make em give up then you can take them straight to Blaze!" Cream lit up and nodded her head.
"Good idea Tails, even a fish brain like you has their moments!"
"I just hope that it goes 'swimmingly' for you..."
"Don't start... *Ahem..*" They both turn around to face you the spark comes back in Creams eyes, she points to you ranting again.
"Human, you shall not pass this area!" She threatens. "I, The Terrific Cream and my partner Cheese, will stop you and capture you for the glory of King SHADOW and all Mobians! And then...!" She pauses scratching her chin.
"I actually don't know what happens next, do you know Cheese." The creature shakes their head giving out a disappointing "Chao....Chao..." Cream shrugs and goes back on to her rant.
"No matter! Proceed if you dare!" She gives her hearty laugh again and leaves again with Tails standing there looking off where she went.
"I think that went well..." He says to you, which you agree. "Don't worry, 'eye'll look out for ya!" Tails jokes again walking off to where his sister went, to which you soon follow.
Along the way you feel your phone vibrate, Cosmo?! You pick it up but a voice you don't recognize is on the other side, you sigh but listen to the person.
"H-Hello?" The ask you don't say a word.
"Oh God.... this is so stupid... Hello I'd like to order a pizza?" 'Wrong number buddy...' You think to yourself but keep listening.
"Uh the toppings are.... uh... how do I describe this..."
'Any time today please!'
"Oh! I know i'll text them to you!" Your phone is to old to receive the picture, so your phone reads out aloud, character by character an ASCI drawing of an Anime Mech. The man hangs up and you continue along with your path, wondering if that guy will ever find out if he called the wrong number.
The next area has another guard post and next to it there is a sign that reads in all caps....
"ABSOLUTELY NO MOVING!!!!" You scratch you head at the sign, and you nothing seems to be attacking you for moving now, you shrug it off and start move to the next area, but as you pass by the guard post you see a head peering up and you stand completely still 'Was this what that sign was talking about?' you wonder.
The creature seems to be another Mobian, a rat it seems, he has shifty look about him as he scans the area for you.
"Now I know I heard somfhin.... But what...?" He looks around, his eyes darting.
"Lost my sight in the war, I did, and my sense of smell has been shot, all I got left is my ears..." He speaks in a southern draw, still looking. "I can here loud things, for example a human...." You gulp softly. "Why if I heard a human I would make sure the only sound I would hear was the moanin of my newest victim!"
Ratty blocks the way! His eyes still shift and his ears twitch waiting for something to happen!
ACT: Check.
Ratty 6 ATK 1 DEF
Paranoid war vet. with poor sight and keen ears, attacks anything that makes noise. Hobbies include: Eating Cheese. (How Neat!)
"Don't even breath...." He warns, the box in front of you has a blue sword go over it and you stay still as well as your SOUL and the sword doesn't hurt you! 'Aha! I see so if its blue don't move!' You think to yourself as your turn comes next. 'I gotta think of something, something to get his attention off of me...'
ACT: Pick up Stick.
You bend down carefully and pick up a stick, you keep silent, Ratty is still suspicious of you though.
"You round here?" He said as another sword came from the left and scanned by you. 'Hope this works...!'
ACT: Throw Stick
You throw the sick over Ratty, it lands behind him, he jumps up and starts going crazy.
"I KNEW I HEARD YA, I'LL GUT YA!" The blue sword goes away from you, while Ratty speaks in garbled gibberish turning his head round and round.
ACT: Throw Snowball
You make a Snowball and throw it to the left of Ratty a soft Clunk! is made by it and Ratty jumps on it.
"THERE YA ARE! SAY YER PRAYERS!" Rattys sword is far from you as he rolls around the ground wrestling an invisible enemy. You notice he's getting tired.
ACT: Throw Snowball
You do the same thing and Ratty slowly gets up, the portly man breaths heavily, as he slowly flops on the ground and pathetically swings his sword.
"Ha... Ha.... This time you ain't.... gettin.... away... Hoo boy been a long time since I've been on.... duty..."
You silently laugh, this old rat isn't nothing talk ain't he?
MERCY: Spare
YOU WON! You received 0 EXP, and 30 Rings!
"S-Something round here.... i'll find it.... but now I think i'll get me a nap in...." Ratty ducks back down behind the guard post and you hear snoring there after, you happily walk along and you see Tails once again standing with that smirk on his face.
"Oh hey, I heard Ratty from here, you aren't hurt are you?" You shake you head. "Yeah he's not the sharpest cheese in the fridge, but before he lost his sight he was really good, now he's gotta rely on sound for his attacks. Kinda like my sis except she can see you." You are intrigued about Cream's attack and inquire more about it from him.
"Well it's like this, her attack is really special, you see it has to do with her little friend Cheese." He explains.
"That Chao only listens to her, trust me i've tried to get it to follow me but it just has this sort of imprint on her. So anything she says goes for that little puffball, if you hear her say something to Cheese then odds are he's gonna do it." You don't have a good grasp on it, but it looks like he won't say anything more about it, you walk by to the next area where Tails and Cream stood across from you again, there's a big area in front of you that is noticeably different from the rest of the snowy ground almost like it was cleared off for some reason...
"You are so lazy! You were napping all day and all night!" She screams at him, he keeps his smile something's off about him you know it!
"I think that's called sleeping sis..."
"No it's called being a sloth!"
"I'm not a sloth though, I'm a-"
"Don't!" Tails stays silent for a moment then says in a whisper that clearly was meant to be heard. "Fox..."
Cream groans in frustration again and rubs he temples, while Cheese angrily exclaims at Tails.
"If laziness doesn't kill you then I will..." She then looks up and sees you all of her bossy attitude is gone, she shrieks in fear then, after a look from Tails, she dusts herself off and points at you slight fear in her eyes.
"H-Human!" She starts off. "Welcome to the first of many puzzles you shall encounter, this one I think you'll find quite shocking..."
Wow what a straight forward pun that was...
"For you see this is the invisible electricity maze! If you hit the walls of the maze, the orb that my partner holds will administer a big zap!" Cheese holds the orb in pride and taunts you, the obvious is being pointed out to you, its almost funny almost because someone's getting hurt.
"Good job sis, that'll really 'shock' their systems!" Tails said to his sister.
"Yes that's what the trap was designed for, now human step forward!" You really don't think that this is a good idea, there's no other way to tell her so you walk to the edge of the area and just as you thought, Cheese got fried by the orb, you feel bad but after Cream checks up on the Chao it's shown that he is alright.
"I'm so sorry Cheese," She then turns to you. "How could you hurt this innocent little soul?!" Tails speaks up kneeling down to Cream's ear.
"Uh sis, they didn't do anything, you just forgot to give them the orb..." Cream gets a surprised look, and you can see that she feels like an idiot.
"Uh well... why don't we just give them the orb? Wait... No we can't that'll draw out a path for them, well I guess this puzzle is out." Cream patches Cheese up and throws the orb out of the way. "L-Lucky you, human, but you won't be next time!" Cream runs away with the little chao, and you walk over to Tails.
"Well this doesn't seem to be helping... Think you can go a little easier on her for me, if you can't already tell she's a little scared of humans, but only because of what Blaze said. I thought that maybe you could show her that they like games and stuff that we Mobians do, but uh right now it isn't going so well..." You agree with him and he shrugs and looks off where she went.
"She's actually really smart, but she's under pressure, that whole orb thing she would never do that level headed. So if you notice something just point it out next time okay?" You nod and walk off to the next area.
After a few encounters with Mobians and a little putt putt golf, you come to the two yet again this time there was
just a piece of paper on the ground.
"Tails...." Cream asks in desperation. "You said you had a puzzle!"
"I do its right there!" He gestures at the paper. "Don't worry this'll get them, 100 percent!"
You walk over and pick up the paper it's a numbers puzzle with little blocks that you put the numbers in, you remember this, your uncle plays this all the time you can't repeat numbers, but you have to fill in the blocks with at least one number your uncle loved this so much till he got stumped on one his brother couldn't help him any.
In fact Tails and Cream remind you of them in some weird way, just how they love each other very much but sometimes you uncle's brother gets on his nerves sometime, never mind that though you got to move on.
"Tails! That didn't do anything!" Cream says a little scared your getting closer, she holds her Chao close ready to run.
"Darn, knew I should've put out today's Number Scramble instead." Cream hears Tails's words and loses her fear which turns into confusion.
"What?" She sounds like she can't believe it. "Number Scramble? That's child's play now if you want a challenge try some Equations Scmasions!" Tails got a look now, blowing a raspberry.
"What? Equations Scmasions, that's for pups and kits!"
"It has numbers and words in it, it's no simple task!"
"Well lets see what the human says, no doubt they'll answer the same with me as they are intelligent." You do side with Cream not because its harder, but just to side with her and boost her self-esteem. She jumps up and taunts Tails.
"See Tails, even the human thinks so, Equations Smasions is harder!" You go up to cheer with her, but she screams and runs off.
'Darn it, so close!' you think to yourself, Tails however ruffles your hair.
"Thanks for going with my sis, she's warming up to ya, don't worry." He reassures you. Another area rolls by and you see Cream again she's behind a spike trap and she hears you come over.
"O-Oh human! Uh... I..." You wave to her, and she gives an awkward wave.
"M-My brother designed this one to... don't worry its simple, like him..." You look and see a sign, on it it says 'turn all O's into X's and flip the switch to deactivate puzzle.'
'Really clever Tails... Wow.. Just Wow...' You think to yourself. There are only two O's and they aren't even blocked, you step on them and as you walk to the switch Cream talks to you a bit more.
"He thinks it's fool proof I call it ignorance, don't you think so?" You agree with her.
"Yeah my puzzles are much better aren't they?" You nod again. "I worry about Tails, he's so lazy and he doesn't seem to care about his health, i'm the only one that'll get him out of bed in the morning and even then he naps on the job!" Cream sighs.
"Whatever you probably don't care, Blaze told me that humans only care about themselves and nothing else..." You try to tell her that she's wrong but as you hit the switch she darts away again, this Blaze she's filling her head with lies, you'll have to show both of them that humans and mobians are the same. Your filled with Determination as you go to the next area, and see another X and O puzzle which you solve in no time, you hear a rustle in the tree and you turn to it in fright.
'Another Mobian?' You think to yourself. You walk over to the tree and out falls Cream herself!
'She didn't run away! She was just... hiding?' You pick up Cream off the ground and she immediately pulls back, she seems scared but a little bit of hope is in her eyes.
"I-I wanted to apologize for what I said earlier by helping you..." Cream said.
"Cheese was getting on my back about it, saying that humans have SOULS to, i'm just so stressed... about well everything..." She sighs and looks at the puzzle.
"You solved that very quickly, good job, seems you don't need my help! C'mon lets get going, on to the next puzzle!" She seems a little bit more comfortable around you, your slowly making progress! Tails was on the other side of the spikes.
"See.... I told you, she doesn't mean everything she says, she's just going by what Blaze tells her. She's nice, no?" You nod, Tails smiles and goes back to doing his thing.
The next area has a lot of tiles on the floor and on the other side stands the two siblings and a round machine.
"Ah Human!" She sounds a lot more confident, but she still seems scared, if only a little. "You going to like this one, and by 'like' I mean hate!" She laughs at you.
"This puzzle was not made by me, or my brother, no it was made by none other than the famed Dr. Silver!"
'Silver?' Yet another name you don't know, you think you remember Tails talking about him showing the joy buzzer trick.
"Silver is one smart cookie and he takes time in his inventions, for you see as I turn this switch on the gray tiles before you will turn into colored tiles! Red tiles are impassible! Yellow tiles are electric they will shock you! Green tiles will initiate a battle! Orange tiles make you smell like oranges! Blue tiles are water tiles, which are electrified when adjacent to yellow tiles and are full of piranhas that like oranges! Purple tiles are slippery; you'll go right through them to the next tile! They are also covered in lemon-scented soap will wash away your orange smell; piranhas do not like lemon scent! Pink tiles do nothing... unfortunately. Do you need to hear it again?" You nod she then repeats it without fail.
"I have a steel trap memory, you won't slip me up!" She mocks you, you decide enough is enough and tell her you don't need another explanation. "Alright, one more thing! This puzzle is entirely randomized, even I won't know the solution! Now prepare yourself human!" She flips the switch a gleeful look in her eye, as the machine hums to life you see the tiles turn many different colors randomizing them them, you feel overwhelmed.
'Now Red tiles are safe, no pink tiles...!' You think you watch the colors, their randomness increasing in speed.
'Uh no stepping on yellow and not while next to orange, no purple, not blue?!' The puzzle keeps randomizing until they go so fast you cant keep track of it, the colors fill your eyes with rainbows as you stutter looking at all of them.
You have to close your eyes, its getting to fast, anymore and you'll have a seizure! Finally the machine stops making noises, you open your eyes to see your impossible puzzle, which is actually pretty easy...
The random puzzle is just a straight line of pink tiles with red surrounding them, Cream's eyes twitch and she walks off without saying a word, you walk over to Tails who seems surprised too.
"Huh... What are the odds?" He asks shrugging. "I think we got one more till you get to Frozin... and then we'll try and sort things out over there okay?" You give him a thumbs up and he walks off after his sister. A little more puzzles here, and a little more Mobians and now your at the final stretch of the puzzled, snowy, woods! You walk along a long bridge and you see the two yet again, Cream notices you and starts yet another rant.
"Human, this is your last puzzle and it is your most dangerous one yet!" She gestures to the bridge.
"Behold the Gauntlet of Doom!" Many deadly items lower from seemingly nowhere and they surround you and the bridge, you feel a little threatened yet again, you swear you can see a dog on a string to! (Poor guy, even if he's smiling...)
"When I say the word, it will fully activate, spikes will fall, canons will fire, flesh shall be seared, and pants shall be soiled! It shall go faster and faster, until only the tiniest of gaps shall be your only chance of hope!" You gulp. "Are you ready?!"
'No...'
"Because I!"
'Please don't...'
"Am!"
'
Hoo boy...'
"About!"
'I want to be friends!'
"To say it!" She stand there for a moment you notice she looks at you and gets a look of guilt and sadness, you cock your head, is she feeling sympathy? Tails turned to her and looked confused as well.
"Well go on" He said. "Say the word."
"I am, I'm about to activate it!" They look back and Tails keeps his confused look while smirking, something is very off about him...
"Uh... That doesn't look very activated..."
"Well.... You see...!" She pauses then lights up, her next sentence almost smugly. "I forgot the word!"
"Huh?" Tails is taken aback. "Wait what happed to that beartrap memory of yours?"
"Steeltrap! And well even the most simplest of things can slip through a trap, that being the name so uh... Sorry human as much as you like puzzles I'm afraid I will have to disappoint you this time, but I shall make up for it just you wait! Away with you!" The trap, like a defeated puppy, leaves the scene leaving you three all alone, you can hear a sigh of relief from Cream, before she leaves yet again.
Confused you walk over to Tails who looks off where his sis went.
"Well I actually don't know what she's gonna do now..." He said, seeming slightly concerned.
"If I were you, I would learn her special attack..." You look at Tails with sarcastic eyes, which makes him smile even more.
"Don't want to spoil it for you, I'm a fox, I'm suppose to be sly..." You look ahead and see the town of Frozin, seeing such a cozy little town fills you with Determination....
