Tails Nine

Tails Nine, also known as Nine, is the deuteragonist of the Netflix animated series Sonic Prime, specifically serving as the deuteragonist of Seasons 1 and 2 and the main antagonist of Season 3.
He is one of the several variants of Miles "Tails" Prower that was created when Sonic had accidentally broken the Paradox Prism. In an alternate reality, Tails had never met Sonic, and had to fend for himself in New Yoke City; a city ruled by the Chaos Council. He used his knowledge of technology to create seven robotic tails, which he weaponized to fight against potential threats.
When Sonic meets Nine, he comes to be the only person he considered a friend, as he was the only one who had never attacked, and seemed to accept him for who he was. Throughout Sonic's adventures through the Shatterverse, Nine acts as Sonic's anti-heroic ally who tries to help him retrieve the prism shards, with the intent of using them to create a perfect world in a dimension he dubs "the Grim". This changes by the time he realizes that Sonic didn't want a new world in the Grim which causes him to take the prism shards for himself
==Biography==
Nine is an alternate version of Tails who was never rescued by Sonic the Hedgehog from the bullies that teased him for having an extra tail. Nine remained a target of ridicule for a long time until he made seven additional tails to defend himself against his tormentors. Since then, he has only looked out for himself and stayed away from crowds, preferring the solitude of his workshop.
One day, Nine is followed by Sonic back to his workshop upon being spotted walking through New Yoke City. The hedgehog acts familiar with him, claiming he was his buddy, but Nine believed Sonic to be a spy and tries to attack him with his mechanical tails. Although he managed to throw the intruder out of his workshop, Nine continued his assault until Sonic saved him from being hit by an incoming train and they shared their recounts of the past to one another.
Nine noticed that Sonic possessed a mysterious energy that he had difficulty controlling and decided to construct a few devices for him that would help regulate the energy. He then tried to stop Sonic from drawing the attention of the Chaos Council searching for him when they are both caught by Dr. Babble and taken to meet with the council's other members. Nine is placed in handcuffs and monitored by two Eggforcers as the Chaos Council decided to test the limits of Sonic's power. During their experiment, the energy Sonic emitted soon began to overload the council's equipment, which confirmed to Nine that it was the same energy powering the city before Renegade Knucks and Rebel Rouge appeared to rescue them.
Nine uses a nearby terminal to free Sonic and himself from their binds while also hacking into Rusty Rose to control her actions. However, instead of escaping, the group went to obtain the Paradox Prim shard that supplied New Yoke City and most of the council's robots with energy. Nine and Sonic managed to reach the shard as the others fought back pursuing Eggforcers and Mr. Doctor Eggman. But when Sonic disappears upon touching the stone, Nine decides to take it and abandon the rebels rather than help them escape the Chaos Council. For the next few weeks, Nine researched the Paradox Prim Shard and from it created a vehicle that could travel to different worlds using the shard's energy. He eventually discovered a world called The Grim which was practically barren and believed he would be able to use the prim shards to transform it into his own ideal world.
Nine would briefly return to his world when Sonic reappeared in New Yoke City and took him back to The Grim where the fox explained how he planned to remake the world Sonic lost. He also expressed no desire in going back to New Yoke City when Sonic tried to convince him to help the rebels fight the Chaos Council, stating that his life in the city had only caused him misery. However, he did open a portal leading back to the location if Sonic wanted to assist them. Sonic told Nine that he hoped to see him reconsider before stepping through the portal and leaving Nine alone to dwell on his words.
He ultimately decided to go and help the rebels but intended to continue his work at The Grim once the battle has finish. Unfortunately, Nine was captured by the Chaos Council who sought to use his knowledge of the Paradox Prim shards to dominate multiple realities. He was forced to help them send Rusty Rose and a number of Eggforcers to a world called No Place to stop Sonic from collecting another shard. However, Nine convinced the council to spare Sonic's life as the energy inside of him could be used to further their research into inter-dimensional travel. 
Nine would Help refactor the Shatterverse and Reality after realising it's soon-to-be destruction, this would led to his redemption as he reluctantly abstracted Sonic's energy to repair the damage, even willing to put his life at the line. After putting all the Prism's together, He summons a vortex for the variants to exile the Chaos Council in the void realm before closing it, Nine successively reconstructed the lost realms for the other universe counterparts to return back.
==Personality==
Due to being bullied for years and never making any friends until meeting Sonic, Nine is bitter and much more snarky, antisocial and short-tempered than most versions of Tails. And while he's gained independence, he's also very jaded, and only goes against the Chaos Council to stay with Sonic. Although he does fight alongside the rebels at first, it's clearly only because their goals at the time happen to coincide, plus the fact that Sonic is helping out and Nine has developed an emotional attachment. As soon as Sonic is accidentally transported elsewhere, Nine abandons the rebels without a second thought, focused solely on his own survival and figuring out how to use the shard to locate Sonic. He later bluntly tells Sonic that he couldn't care less about the fate of the city.
