Little Tails

**Little Tails** is a fantasy fanmake based on the 1989 film called "Little Nemo"; it's a work in progress and thus, created by Roxie Mitchell. It is about a certain twin-tailed fox who sets out to Slumberland to rescue the king and queen from the clutches of the villainous owl, simply known as the Grand Duke of Owls; along the way, he meets new people, with among them being Princess Zooey and the ever-mischievous T.W. Barker.

## Plot

The fanmake opens with the young kitsune named Tails experiencing a nightmare in which he is pursued by a locomotive. Upon awakening the next day, he goes with his Togedemaru to see a parade welcoming a traveling circus. However, Tails is unable to see the circus, since the rest of Team Sonic is too busy battling Dr. Eggman to take him. Later that night, Tails imitates sleepwalking in an attempt to sneak some pie away, which acts against a promise he had made earlier to Amy, who catches him in the act and makes him run back to his room empty-handed. Upon actually falling asleep later that night, Tails is approached by figures from the circus parade. The circus organist introduces himself as Captain Havoc and claims that they had been sent on a mission by Robin Hood and Maid Marian, the king and queen of a realm named Slumberland. The mission involves Tails becoming the playmate of the princess, Zooey. Although Tails initially has reservations about interacting with a girl, he and Togedemaru decide to set off to fulfill his mission after being persuaded with a gift box of macarons from the princess.

Tails is taken to Slumberland in a dirigible which he is allowed to drive, causing some chaos, and is introduced to King Robin and Queen Marian. Robin reveals that he summoned Tails to become his heir to the throne. Robin gives Tails a golden key that opens every door in the kingdom and warns him of a door with a dragon insignia that must never be opened. Tails is introduced to Princess Zooey and the pair roam the entirety of Slumberland together. Afterward, Tails meets the mischievous ringmaster, T.W. Barker, who angers a group of cops, who force him and Tails to hide out in a cave. There, Tails discovers the door that Robin and Marian had warned him not to open earlier. T.W. Barker tempts Tails into unlocking the door, which unleashes "the nightmare". Tails rushes back to Robin and Marian's castle in time for his coronation ceremony, where Tails is handed the royal scepter, the only thing capable of defeating the Grand Duke of Owls, the ruler of Nightmare Land, should he ever return to Slumberland. In the middle of a dance session between Robin and Marian, "The Nightmare" reaches the castle and steals Robin and Marian away. As the partygoers search for a scapegoat, T.W. Barker and Tails accuse each other, though the responsibility goes to Tails who had the key.

Tails awakens in his home, which floods with seawater and ejects him into the ocean. Havoc discovers Tails and, alongside Tide and Bridget, tells him not to blame himself for all that has happened and that T.W. Barker is the one to blame, but Tails accepts the situation nonetheless and pledges to find the King and Queen. When the four return to Slumberland, they manage to rescue T.W. Barker from being shot out of a cannon because he has a map of Nightmare Land, where Robin and Marian currently being held. Tails, Togedemaru, Zooey, T.W. Barker, Havoc, Tide, Bridget, Lady Kluck and Little John set off in a tugboat in search of Robin and Marian. They are soon sucked into a whirlpool and find themselves in the goblin-infested Nightmare Land. The five come across a group of toons, simply known as the Tiny Toons, who wish to aid in the quest to rescue Robin and Marian. The Grand Duke of Owls sends a flock of fearsome and gigantic bats to seize the rescue party. Tails attempts to use the scepter but awakens in his bed instead. The Tiny Toons appear in Tails' room and the group travels to Nightmare Castle by flying through a portal in the sky. However, they are subsequently imprisoned in the castle, where the Grand Duke of Owls demands possession of the scepter. Tails soon uses the scepter to finally eliminate and defeat the Grand Duke of Owls but almost at the cost of Tails' life. Slumberland celebrates the fall of the Nightmare Kingdom. Zooey escorts Tails home on the dirigible. The two nearly share a kiss before Tails awakens in his room, where he apologizes to Sonic, Knuckles, Sticks and Amy for breaking his promise and trying to take the pie. Team Sonic also agrees to take Tails to the circus. Tails stares out the window as he looks forward to his new day.
