      The next day, David decided to play in the wild west. According to his version, Sonic played the role of the city Sheriff, Shadow was a bandit, and the rest of the toys were civilians. Even a toy, oddly enough, that served as a bartender in a saloon. Sonic's hat had to be temporarily borrowed from Knuckles. — I hope you don’t mind if I borrow your hat? — boy asked the toy and took his favorite hat from the echidna’s head. Which it was sold with. When David turned away and put it on Sonic's head, Knuckles came to life for a second and whispered: — Of course not. Do not mind. The toy Rouge standing next to him also came to life for a second and, raising her index finger to her lips, shushed him, hinting that he should not know that they were alive. And the game with the imagination turned on began:       Wild Wild West. A lonely city, inhabited by anthropomorphic animals and robots, as well as a single slightly plump man with a mustache like a walrus. A dangerous criminal known as Neg was wanted in the city. And he appears on a motorcycle with a machine gun in his hands in a city out of nowhere. — Stand and don’t move! This is a robbery! - he said, pointing his gun at everyone. Everyone immediately raised their hands up and shouted: — OH NO!!! THIS IS NEG!!! — Get me money! — Neg, grinning, threatened to shoot at Eggman, and he opened the safe, from which a bunch of huge coins fell out in the form of kopecks and rubles. Black-scarlet was immediately delighted with the money that he even began to kiss it. — DON'T YOU DARE!!! DON'T YOU DARE, YOU UGLY WEASEL!!! — Cream dared to shout. — Keep quiet, girl, otherwise your pet will be in trouble! — he threatened the chao, whom he immediately aimed at. — Chao-chao! Help! — he said. — OH NO, NOT MY CHAO!!! SOMEBODY!!! DO SOMETHING!!! Then Sonic in a hat jumps from heaven to earth and points the gun at the weasel and says: — Well, hands up! — Oh no. It's Sheriff Sonic! — Neg got scared and raised both hands up. — I'll stop you, faker hedgehog! — Sonic exclaimed and Shadow immediately spun in place and turned into Metal Sonic. In fact, David at that moment simply removed Neg and put Shadow in his place. — How did you know it was me? — I am the law. Dead or alive, you will come with me. — Sonic exclaimed coolly. — Don't touch me, Sheriff. — David said on behalf of Shadow and Infinite was next to him. — I took with me a dog that eats robots and people. — And I took... — David, imitating Sonic’s voice, took out the time eater and, placing it next to Sonic, continued: — A huge monster that will eat your evil dog. David imitates how the devourer grabs Infinite and takes them away from the playing field, like they have already fulfilled their roles. That is, the monster ate the evil dog of the Shadow Hedgehog. Sonic then grabs Shadow from behind, cuffs his hands, and kicks him behind bars. — You're under arrest, Shadow the hedgehog. Say goodbye to your wife and kids. Black-scarlet stands up and, holding the bars with his hands, shouts: — I WILL GET REVENGE OF YOU FOR THIS, SHERIFF SONIC!!! Can you hear me? — David imitated Shadow’s screams and how he held onto pencils instead of bars. Imagination! Then he put Sonic in a circle of other toys and, throwing him up and down, pretended that those he had saved were rocking him and said: — Long live Sheriff Sonic! You saved us all again. ♪ I'm your good friend ♪ ♪ I'm your good friend ♪ ♪ If you've been on the road for a long time ♪ ♪ And it’s still a long time for you to go ♪

The next day

      David set up a track in his room and decided to play with Sonic, Shadow, Tails and Amy, as they decided to run after each other in a racing race. He pulls the ring with the string on Sonic's back and the voice simulator inside the toy plays a random phrase: — I'm as fast as the wind. — No, not that. — he said to himself and pulled again so that the desired phrase for the game fell out. — You are the best among the fastest hedgehog's assistants. — a new phrase was issued by a voice imitator. — Not that again. — he says to himself and pulls again. — Let's drive! — voice imitator issued, and this particular phrase was suitable. — Ha. You can't outrun me, faker. — David said, shaking his stern voice and slightly moving Shadow’s toy, then he put them all at the start and said before getting up and running. — On your marks! Attention! March! ♪ You remember ten times out of ten, ♪ ♪ that I'm your good friend ♪ ♪ After all, I'm your good friend ♪

Next week

Eggman's ship with Eggman himself on a cardboard box stood on the bed, and David imitated his villainous laugh. And on the floor lay Sonic, Tails and Knuckles in a pile of cut-out paper monkeys. In their imagination, the monkeys grabbed them and did not let go. — Let them go, doctor! — David said sternly, moving Shadow’s toy and moving his hand in the air, knocking out the box with Eggman’s toy inside. — Bamz. — then picked Sonic up and made them give each other a friendly hand pat. — Thank you, Shadow. You're welcome, Sonic. Remember, those who stand in the way of two best friends, Sonic and Shadow, will not be happy! ♪ I'm your good friend ♪ ♪ I'm your good friend ♪ ♪ And if it’s difficult, I’ll help ♪ ♪ I’m ready to move any mountains for you ♪

Next month

David played with Sonic and Shadow outside, running on the lawn near his house and pretending that they were flying in super forms in space. — Watch out, Shad, these asteroids are dangerous! — I first imitated Sonic, and then began to imitate Shadow: — A coward does not fly near the asteroid belt! ♪ Let's share joy and sorrow together ♪ ♪ After all, I'm your good friend ♪ ♪ I'm your good friend ♪

Today

      Early in the morning, David carries Sonic and Shadow on his back, playing horse. Leaving the room and finding himself near the stairs, he placed the hedgehog toys on the edge of the railing going down, and he ran down the stairs while both hedgehogs slowly rolled down. David himself imagined that both of these hedgehogs were going down the mountain on snowboards. Finding themselves at the very bottom of the end of the railing and lightly hitting the wooden ball at the end, they flew up and both fell right into the boy’s arms. Then he ran into the corridor, spun the chair on wheels around and, sitting down with Sonic and Shadow on the sides, began to jerk his legs and imagine that they were future astronauts and were preparing to fly into space in a centrifuge. Having played enough with the centrifuge, he planted the hedgehogs from below near the sofa with a pull-out seat for the legs, pulled the lever and the pull-out seat, threw both toys into the sky for a couple of seconds, after which they landed on the adjacent sofa. — YES!!! — boy screamed and accidentally noticed that everything in the kitchen was decorated for his birthday. Mom was almost finished hanging the balloons, and dad placed the seventh candle on the cake. — Wow. This is exactly what I wanted from you. — We promised you, which means we did it. — said the father. — Well, we're not finished yet. We still need to finish both here and here. In addition, guests must come with gifts. — says mom. Sonic and Shadow came to life at that moment for a minute and they became curious about what their owner and his parents were talking about and realized that today was David’s birthday. — Can hang it all up like this for now before moving? — asked the son and the father answers: — Certainly. We will still be moving only in five days. — Well, go ahead and play in the garden if you want! — mother suggested and the son answers: — Okay, mom. - answers and picks up his Sonic and Shadow from the sofa. — We have a holiday, friends. So it's time to have fun! — he told them and ran with them to the second floor, imagining an airplane. — Thank you for using our airline and we wish you a pleasant holiday. Imagining himself to be a flight attendant, he said, putting the hedgehogs on his bed, picking up a soccer ball and running to play in the yard. Sonic and Shadow, the moment David left the room, came to life and stood up. — All okay, guys! Nobody here! — he said and everyone else immediately came to life and went about their business to do whatever they wanted. For example, Blaze jumped off the bedside table, walked up to Amy Rose, hugged her and holding hands, they went to talk about their own things. Cream took out an old Mega Drive console with cartridges for it, on which the second part of the Sonic game was recorded, and connecting the cartridge to the console, and the console to the TV, starts the game. The toy is playing! Did you catch the joke? And Big the cat, having found his Froggy, puts it on his head. — Hey, Big. Look! Am I really beautiful? — Rouge asks him, having painted her eyes and lips with real cosmetics, which she used in the middle of the night at David’s mom’s while everyone was sleeping. — I don't understand. — The plump plush cat, like a pillow, answers with a wave of his hand and leaves. — Not polite and tasteless cat! — she swore at him offendedly and, turning towards the bee, Charmy asks him, passing by: — What are you staring at, striped bee? — All aboard! — said Eggman, sitting behind the wheel of a red car on which the toys of Vector, Espio, Knuckles, Mighty and Ray sat down. After which the car started moving and drove around the room. — Sergeant, have you seen Metal Sonic? — Shadow turned to the little soldier on the shelf. — No, sir. — He salutes. — Okay. Thank you. You are free! — says the black-scarlet one, and the sergeant, saluting, replies: — No, sir! — You are free! — You forgot about honor, sir. — he explained and Shadow saluted again and repeated: — You are free! — Yes, sir. Shadow came down and suddenly Metal Sonic himself crawled out from under the bed, playing chess. — Oh, here you are! — Do you want to play chess with me? — Not now, Metal! We have an urgent meeting. Gather everyone urgently and make everything more fun! — Shadow asks. — Understood. — toy of Sonic’s robotic double answers and goes to collect the others. — Attention! Urgent meeting! Omega and Chao, out! — he turns to Omega and Chao Cream, who were also under the bed and the latter emerge from under the bed. Sonic and Knuckles, wearing his hat, walked past each other at that time and stopped, standing with their backs to each other at a distance of five centimeters. — Knuckles... Go! — he says and they both turn and grab each other. Knuckles was able to grab Sonic and performs a judo move, knocking Sonic to the floor without him getting hurt. — OU. Again you defeated me! — In fact, Sonic just gave in to him on purpose so as not to disappoint. — Well, you got the hang of it, Knuckles. — I know. I am the champion of the entire island of angels. — echidna boasted in response and admired his plush arm, imagining a huge muscle. — Guys, Sonic and Shadow are gathering everyone for a general meeting! Faster! — Metal says to every toy he meets and leads them with him. Omega, Bokkun, Deko and Boko were putting down a plastic bucket and a couple of letter cubes, and at that moment Shadow was looking for a notebook cut out of paper. He finally finds it next to the bedside table and just goes to pick it up when the Time Eater immediately falls from above and screams heart-rendingly. Shadow, only three seconds later, realized that he had done it to scare him and screams out of supposed fear too late. — Were you honestly scared? — devourer asked incredulously. — Uh... Well, you're still great. This time I was almost scared. — black-and-scarlet one said the truth, took the notebook from the floor and went in the opposite direction. — I am conceived and considered as a terrible huge monster. But in my soul and talent, this is difficult for me. I'm more of an irritant. — the devourer says pessimistically, walking along with Shadow in his arms, because he has no legs. Sonic and Shadow went up to the built toy podium, Shadow put a notepad on top of the podium, and Sonic stood on the blocks and picked up a microphone connected to an old receiver. — Okay! — the plush blue hedgehog began speaking, but it was too loud and he asked Deko and Boko to move the receiver a little further away. — Well what is this? — Tails was indignant. — Why is it always so loud? — Vector asked. To check, Sonic blows into the microphone a couple of times and says: — Hello! Examination! Can everyone hear me? Hey on the shelf, can you hear? — he asks the toy Mephelis, Manik and Sonya. — Yes. — Manik and Sonya answered at the same time, and Mephelis only nodded and waved his hand, because he was made almost canonically and without a mouth, which is why he could not speak at all. — Fine! And so. We had the first question, and now the next one. Have each of you already found a match before moving? — Found a pair? He must be joking? — Eggman asks. — But I didn’t think it would be so urgent. — the devourer became worried. — Should we all join hands? — Bokkun asks, taking off his left hand, because it had removable parts. And the rest just laughed at what he said. — So you all find it funny? Yes? There are only five days left before the move. I don't want any of us to get lost. So follow the example of Amy and Blaze! — Sonic explains, pointing his finger at Amy and Blaze, who were holding hands at that moment. — Break into pairs, and those who don’t have a pair... Find them! — Shadow at that moment approached Sonic and whispered something in his ear. — Oh yes. Our meeting on plastic corrosion prevention went well. And we express our gratitude to Infinite for its active participation. Thank you, Infinite. — I'm always happy to help. — answers the masked jackal. — And the last thing. As you all already know, today is David’s birthday, — Sonic adds and everyone is shocked at once. — Couldn’t you have warned us about this at least last week? — asked Espio. — Sonic and I aren’t worried, so neither should you. — says Shadow. — Well, of course, you don’t worry. You are both David’s favorite toys since childhood, and before that you both were separately with his parents. Sonic, for example, used to be dad's toy, and Shadow was mom's. — Big answered, and the stuffed frog croaked in confirmation of his words. — Hey, come on, fatty! Shadow told us that we have nothing to fear. — Omega intervened. — And we all believe his words. After all, they always led us along the right path. — Blaze added. — What if they give David another monster? For example, xenomorph or Viy. And if he leaves me after this, I won’t live through it. — devourer said out of resentment. — Come on, guys. Calm down! Like on his birthday and on New Year's, we always experience the same fear. Well, take my word for it! He will never throw any of us away because He loves us all individually and cherishes each of us. After all, now we are not talking about us, toys, but about David. After all, it doesn’t matter which of us plays for and most importantly how often he plays. The main thing is that he always has us all at hand when he needs us. After all, this is what we are all made for. — while Sonic was explaining all this, Manic looked out the window and interrupted his speech: — They're already here. David's birthday guests go here. Out of curiosity, all the toys ran to climb onto the nightstand to look out the window. Everyone fit in, and only Big and Cream stood behind. — Hey, I can’t see it. — rabbit was indignant, and Big took her by the waist and put her on his head. — That's better? — Yes. Thank you, Mr. Big. Through the window, David's toys saw neighboring children approaching their house with gifts in their hands. Each new guest's box was larger than the previous one. Each of them met David on the lawn near the house and decided to join him in a game of ball, and for now they left the gifts on the porch so that David’s parents could take them into the house for now. — That's it. Soon we will all be sent to the sale. — Deco was worried. — Are there any foxes there by any chance? — Tails asked. — Two-tailed fool, all the gifts are tightly closed in boxes. — Amy explained. — Wait! Here it is, a cute little box. — Eggman said pointing to a very small box. There must have been something very small but valuable inside. — What could be there? Marriage ring? — What a marriage. David turns seven today. It’s too early for him to get married. Moreover, the box was brought not by a girl, but by a boy. — Rouge objected. — Or maybe there are dumbbells there to pump your arms? — Boko suggested. — Maybe. But what's in the other boxes? — Charmy asked. — There's only one way to find out. — Sonic said, raising the index finger of his left hand and walked up to the little soldier G.A.Na. He saluted and spoke: — Sergeant, send down the best group of scouts! The situation is combative. You know what to do. — Yes, sir. — Saluting, the soldier answers and jumps to the bucket with the G.A.N. emblem. from the side. About thirty-five soldiers climbed out of the bucket and began to listen to the order: — Attention, comrades! Everyone heard the commander's order! The situation is combative. We are operating under Operation Shadow Surveillance! The soldiers gathered into a detachment and walked in small steps towards the door into the corridor. One of them lightly looked out the door, looked around, realized that there was no one there, ran forward, hiding behind a column of railings and, waving his hand, gave a signal to his comrades so that they would all run after him. Three ran ahead of him, hiding behind the next columns, and the rest carried a rope and one part of the baby monitor, which is usually left in the room with babies, and the other through which the cry of a child from another room was received, remained in David's room. Don’t ask why they still have a radio nanny if they don’t even have a second child! One of G.A.N's soldiers, who was hiding behind the third column, took out his toy binoculars and looked down. David's dad carried them one gift at a time from the porch into the house and into the kitchen so that no one would steal them. At that moment he was already carrying the last box, and the children, fortunately, were still playing on the street. And since mom and dad were busy in the kitchen decorating the birthday food, in fact they probably won’t notice them and simply won’t pay attention. The soldiers tied a rope to the radio nanny at one end and slowly lowered her down, along with twelve soldiers, who then jumped down, untied the radio nanny and with quiet steps dragged her to a flower pot on the floor, where they hid the radio nanny deeper. Fortunately, the pot was located between the corridor and the kitchen so that the order could be seen. The twelfth soldier, climbing into the pot, looked at the top and showed his thumb to the top, thereby signaling to his comrades above that they had reached the goal. The other soldiers picked up the rope and ran back to the room. — Mission accomplished, sir. — one of them said to the sergeant, saluting. — Great! — sergeant salutes and the rest of the soldiers salute him back. — Wonderful. — Shadow was delighted, stood next to the second nanny radio on the nightstand and turned it on. — Now we’ll find out what kind of gifts are in the boxes.
