Chapter Text
Their peace was suddenly interrupted by a loud crash from the garage startling the three of them.
"What was that!" Sonic exclaimed in shock.
"Probably the raccoons trying to get at the stuff in the garage." Tom said getting up.
"You're really gonna go out in that flood." Sonic said.
"A little rain never hurt anyone." Tom said putting his jacket.
"I most passionately disagree." Sonic said before putting on his coat. "But someone has to make sure you don't get swept away." He added.
The two headed into the garage and Tom shone a flashlight inside.
"No racoons, but something made that noise." Tom said.
The two began checking everything stored in the garage..tools...the lawnmower...big orange furball...spare auto parts
Big orange furball!
"Tom, check this out." Sonic said pointing.
Tom shone a light on it.
"That wasn't here earlier." Tom said.
Tom and Sonic both stared at the furball, was it just their imagination or was it trembling.
"Hello." Sonic said confused.
A pair of bright cyan eyes appeared blinking at the pair of them.
"Hey there." Sonic said.
The ball just stared at them blinking owishly.
Just then Sonic noticed the trembling.
"Hey, there's no need to be afraid." Sonic said.
There was suddenly a loud boom of thunder and the ball let out a squeak unfurling into what Tom thought looked looked like a young fox, it's orange fur and tails dripping wet and parts covered in a layer of mud.
Wait a second..tails.
