As for the true origin of the Tails Doll, I doubt any of us will ever truly know. The tails
doll is a dark mystery, wrapped in an infernal enigma, wrapped in cuddly yellowish
plush.
But I do know something about how it came into our world...
Can you feel the Sunshine?
Tess could not. She felt as if a dark gloom had shrouded every once-pleasant aspect
of her life. In the two, terrible weeks since her boyfriend Ben had mysteriously
disappeared, Tess felt her world crumble into despair. She had become a virtual
recluse, barely ate, and even ignored her beloved video-games. Life had lost all
meaning.
Then, came the call.
When Tess picked up, there was no one on the other line, but she could see that the
call had come from Ben's apartment. Throwing on a coat, she raced out of her house
for the first time in a fortnight.
When she arrived at Ben's place, it was obvious no one was there. Despite having
been searched by the police, the small studio apartment remained exactly as Tess
had remembered, albeit dustier. A thin layer of grime now covered her missing beau's
Shadow the Hedgehog shrine.
She was about to leave when she saw a glint of light. It came from a compact disk on
the floor. She picked it up and turned it in her hand. It was a Saturn game, called
Sonic R. It refracted the sunlight, casting beautiful rainbow-colored rays that danced
about the sullen room.
Tess felt like she could finally feel the sunshine, and it brightened up her day. She
booted up Ben's Saturn and played the mediocre little racer. It wasn't great, but it was
the most fun she had experienced in some time.
The next morning, she awoke with a headache and nausea. It wasn't until her hasty
trip to the bathroom that she realized she hadn't remembered coming home the
previous night. Had she been that tiered?
Over the next few weeks, the nausea subsided, but the true terror began when she
discovered she was late. "Oh, Dear God", she thought, "I can't be-- can I?" Sure
enough, her doctor confirmed that she was indeed going to be a mother. But, who was
the father? Ben?!
The question was moot, for several months later, Tess was discovered in a ditch. The
cause of death was undetermined, but stranger still was the fact that all medical
evidence suggested she had given birth shortly before her demise. However, no child
was found near the body, only a small plush fox with two tails, and uncannily vacant
eyes.
