Genocidal Tails

Hello. I'm Yomie. I'm a Japanese-American biromantic-demiromantic-asexual demiboy, and I wanted to share a traumatic event that happened to me recently. So, as you may know if you're close to me, my favourite game is Sonic the Hedgehog 2, and my favourite character used to be Tails. "Why 'used'?" you might ask.

Well, you're about to find out.

I had just moved into an apartment, and my cousin called me to tell me a car boot fair was on near her place. I wasn't very interested until she mentioned there was a suspicious old man selling a beaten-up copy of Sonic 2. I rushed to my car, nearly tripping over the multiple possessions I hadn't unboxed yet, and drove over as quick as I could. Luckily, the copy was still being sold. The man seemed scared, and was trembling. When I ran up and asked to buy his copy, he handed it over and whispered, "Don't trust the fox..." I knew he was talking about Tails, so I dismissed it as he had gotten unlucky at a few too many Special Stages and politely said goodbye to the seller and my cousin. When I got home I unboxed my Sega Genesis, hooked it up to the ancient TV and played the first act of Emerald Zone act 1. I noted that I was playing as Tails and had no Sonic accompanying me, which was extremely unusual, but I brushed it off as a glitch. I kept playing as usual, and all was somewhat normal until Act 3. Tails seemed to be holding something silver, because it shone in the light every 3 minutes. He had a grin on his face which gave me an Uncanny Valley feeling. I played normally until where the boss was meant to be. Instead, Sonic was there. When Sonic spotted Tails, he gave a friendly smile and walked up to him (Tails), which I felt was a catastrophically bad move. I was proven right at both my mental health and Sonic's expense - Tails brought out a sharp knife and gutted poor Sonic, who had a look of shock and betrayal on his face before Tails gouged out his eyes and beheaded him. There was LOADS of blood...like, wow, I didn't know Sonic had that much blood. I was shocked, appalled and quite literally flabbergasted. Nevertheless, my morbid curiosity got the better of me, and I continued. Now we were strangely in Angel Island, which was weird. Sonic 3 didn't even exist when Sonic 2 was first out and judging by the looks of the copy I bought, this seemed to be at most a second edition. I played through the first act nervously, thinking that Knuckles may be next and I unfortunately was right. It was horrific. Knuckles saw the blood on Tails and the knife and put two and two together and attempted to avenge poor Sonic. He sadly failed - Tails gouged out his heart and his entrails, blood spraying everywhere. Then he chopped off his (Knuckles's) arms and left him to die. I was horrified. Nevertheless, I continued playing, hoping I was hallucinating and that it would wear off once I finished.

I was wrong.

We ended up in Palmtree Panic and now I was sure I was not hallucinating and now I realised what that old man had meant...

I tried to eject the disc.

It wouldn't come out.

Now I was really scared. I wished and wished I had never gone to that car boot sale as I played, certain I was going to die. This stage was normal except for Tails's deranged grin and bloody face and hands. I beat a boss and found Amy stuck in a cage. She looked grateful but then she saw Tails bring out a massive wooden crucifix from god-knows-where and stick it in the ground and grab a box of screws and his knife. He stabbed Amy in the eyes before she had time to react - I realised I was more desensitised to the characters's deaths since it had happened twice now. She screamed and clutched her eyes but Tails stabbed her arms away from them and - terrifyingly - reached up his hand and took the glove off. A glowing, crimson claw clutched free and grabbed Amy and stuck her on the cross. Tails put his glove back on and screwed a screaming, crying Amy onto the crucifix slowly and agonizingly. He moved on and walked on, grinning wider than was physically possible. The screen turned black. I felt my skin crawl - this was it, I was dead. This demon was going to pull me into Hell and torture me, torture me for god-knows-what reason...

Tails stood motionless on the screen, insane, diluted pupils...wide, terrifying grin...sharp, bloodied knife..and laughed like a maniac. "I can see you Yomie, I know who and where you are, and I know something you don't...YOU'RE NEXT, YOMIE! HAHAHA!"

The Genesis finally shut off, the disc finally ejected, and I was half relieved that the disc had finally ejected after that Hell, but also half scared..what did he mean, he knows who and where I am? I'm next? I sat there, not even daring to breathe, fighting back terrified sobs, before a chilling whisper sounded behind me...

"I'm here, Yomie."

I turned around.

There were three plushies on my floor. One was beheaded, eyeless, and covered in blood and entrails, one was armless, covered in blood, massive gaping bloody holes where his heart and stomach should be, and one on a cross, eyeless and bleeding. And in front of them all, a Tails doll covered in blood with a sharp bloodied knife.
