The Crawlers

Chapter One

*The House*

"Yes...no...ah-huh...uh-ah...yeah...NO...yes...ah-huh,"

Sonic, Amy, Knuckles, Cream, Shadow, and Rouge were at Tails's work shop. Tails was on the phone. It was an important call from Caluzuzubabakikijorog.

"Yes...no...ah-huh...uh-ah...yeah...NO...yes...an-huh," Tails said on the phone.

Everyone was staring at him wide-eyed.

Sonic looked at Amy and whispered in her ear, "Is Tails talking to someone or is he just playing with us?"

Tails put his finger up to his lips and said, "Shhhh,"

"Yes...no...ah-huh...uh-ah...yeah...NO...yes...ah-huh...thank you...bye bye," Tails hung up the phone.

"Oh finally!" Shadow growled.

"What did he say Tails?" Sonic asked.

"He said the house is ready and we can come there now," Tails answered.

"Okay, where is this house located?"

"Well, I'm not all sure of where the place is, I have to go call that guy back,"

"NO!" everyone shouted.

The next day, everyone was packing all of their belongings except Shadow. He didn't have any belongings except for his 2 chaos emeralds.

"Okay were all set," Tails said, as he threw his bags into the trunk of the Knuckles's van.

Cream was standing outside the front door of her house. She waved goodbye to everyone. She was sad she had to stay home with mom and Cheese. "Goodbye everyone!" Cream called to them.

"Bye Cream!" Everyone called back, except Shadow. He just closed his eyes and crossed his arms.

Then the van drove off.

Knuckles was driving and Sonic was running alongside the van.

After hours of driving, Sonic and the gang were almost there to the house. They stopped at a gas-station to get some gas. Sonic was putting gas into the car.

Amy got out of the car. "I'm going in that store right over there. Wanna come Sonikkins," Amy asked.

"Puh, no," Sonic replied.

"Fine, I'm not going in the store at all then," Amy said, as she got back into the car.

Once Sonic was finish putting the gas in, they were off again. Sonic ran alongside the van again.

"So, Tails what is this house supposed to look like anyway?" Knuckles asked.

"Well, it is 100 years old," Tails answered.

"Yeah, I mean what does it look like?"

"So it's 100 years old. Might be interesting," Rouge said.

Amy nodded.

*Tails says* "There probably might even be ghost there,"

"Ghost!" Amy exclaimed.

Tails nodded. "Yup, and the house is 100 years old,"

"We know that, foxboy," Shadow growled.

After a few minutes of driving, Sonic and the gang saw the house came into view. It didn't look old at all. It looked like a brand-new wooden house. It was shiny silver color, and the roof was shaded black.

*Amy says* "This place doesn't look old at all,"

"Yeah well, that's the outside, but you don't know about the inside," Tails said.

Knuckles parked the van in front of the house and saw someone standing next to the front door. They assumed it was Caluzuzubabakikijorog. He was wearing a black jacket wearing a hood, some black pants, black gloves, and black shoes. His head was down and they couldn't see his face.

Everyone got out of the van. Tails walked up to Caluzuzubabakikijorog, but not to close.

"Are you Caluzuzubabakikijorog?" Tails asked.

He lifted his head up. It was dark inside the hood and Tails couldn't see his face, but only his nose. His nose was gray and skeleton like. "Yes indeed," he replied.
