Miles "Tails" Prower

*"Growing up, I didn't have any friends. Everyone in my village thought my two tails were weird."
"Hey, I know that feeling."
"But then I saw you, the fastest creature in the galaxy. You were weird too. But you were a legend. That made me think, maybe being weird isn't so bad. You inspired me to leave my village, to find you and help you in your mission."*
―Miles "Tails" Prower and Sonic the Hedgehog
**Miles "Tails" Prower** is a yellow two-tailed Fox from Mobius who was deemed to be 'strange' by his fellow villagers. Following his notice of an energy blast caused by Sonic the Hedgehog, he tracked his new idol to Earth and arrived on the planet through a ring.

Having noticed someone is in pursuit of Sonic, Tails rescued him from Knuckles the Echidna, explaining his presence. Learning about a supposed fairy-tale, the Master Emerald, and the power it behold, Sonic was applied to find it and secure it, with Tails coming along with newfound confidence and trust. After having faced a dance battle and a battle with Robotnik and Knuckles, Tails was brought along Sonic to the island of Hawaii unconscious, waking up to save Sonic with the *Tornado* biplane.

Now allied with Knuckles, all three of them attempt to stop Eggman's Giant Eggman Robot, built and managed with the power of the Master Emerald Robotnik had obtained. Tails, following Sonic's new plan, got Robotnik distracted in order to rid him of his abilities. Although the robot recharges and stomps Tails' idol, along with his parental figures, Tails witnesses Super Sonic destroying the Badnik. Afterwards, Tails, Knuckles and Sonic form an alliance together, swearing to protect the emerald from danger or evil and played baseball.

One month later, the trio went to the local Green Hills Junkyard, being prompted an investigation by deputy sheriff Wade Whipple. They fought a Flying Egg Badnik with sentience, later befriending it.
