"You done yet, Tails?" He asked.

Amy just smiled at the little alien. She still thought it was adorable.

"...there; just about." Finally, Tails closed that compartment on the robot, before taking a chunk of the spare parts he had plucked out of it. "Sonic, mind taking that other chunk?" he asked, before he began walking away from the scene. Noticing that Tails was walking off, the alien gave Amy a nod, before floating after the fox.

"No prob..." He said, picking up the chunk. "Let's get out of here..." And walked after Tails...

"Hey! Wait for me!" Amy hurried along after them.

When they were gone... ...he peeked out from around the corner. ...and here I thought letting the Big Boy know where Sonic was via that small transmitter in that chili dog would do the trick... I should inform the doctor about what the Wisps can pull off within someone... And he rolled off.
About fifteen minutes later, the gang had gotten to a more secluded spot, where Tails could work in peace; and, just with the scrap from the robot, he had pieced together some form of contraption. Right now, it was a matter of fine-tuning it.

Placing it down, he moved his mouth a bit... "Ugh... just noticed I've got something in my mouth... ugh..." He spat it to the ground... ...a crunched, destroyed transmitter... "Ugh..." And he didn't notice. "All right... where were we...?"

"So you're making a translator for them, huh?" Amy asked Tails.

Tails nodded. "Yep. Now, to see if this will start up..." Humming, Tails narrowed his eyes... ...and the device turned on. "...bingo! Alright; all I need to do is aim it at the alien..." And he did so. Blinking, Yacker looked from Sonic to Amy to Tails, before eying the device. It began chirping once again... ...and a long series of numbers began appearing along the device's screen. "...yes! I got it!" Tails cheered.

"OK!" He clapped his hands, looking at the white alien. "Let's begin! Little guy, what's your name, what are you and where did you come from?"

Amy looked at the translator, wondering why in the world it was in a binary code...

"Wait, Sonic; don't ask so many questions at a time!" Tails quickly said. "The thing is... this thing doesn't seem to translate in anything other than binary. I need to make sure that it's getting what the alien's actually saying." Reading the numbers that already stood on the screen... "...huh. He's apparently saying "Take off at the speed of sound... what goes up must come down... life's an open book-" Agh, this is just gibberish." Sighing, Tails began fiddling with the device a bit. "...give me a minute; I need to recalibrate this..."

"All right, all right... let's start again..." He sighed. "What's your name?"

The alien began chirping again once Tails was done recalibrating the device. "Okay..." Tails uttered, as he read the binary code. "...he says that his name is... "Talks-A-Lot", and he's from... a faraway soda? Where flowers... water them with dances..." Facepalm. "...better, but not enough..." Tails sighed, as he made some more adjustments. "...alright... oh, I see. His name is Yacker." The alien nodded at that, and chirped a bit more. "Ah... and he's from an alien race called Wisps."

"Lisps?"

Post by YolkaEd on Dec 30, 2011 13:24:34 GMT -5
"No, Wisps, with a 'W'." Yacker quickly chirped again. "And... he says that someone else already misheard that, for some reason..."

He shrugged. "I'll just stick with aliens if that's okay with you... So, where did these little guys come from?"

"...it's not clear." Tails murmured, as he deciphered more of Yacker's speech. "He says... that his race is being used to create underwear to be worn by salad?" Now he just blinked. How in the world did what he said get translated to that?!"...one sec..." Adjusting the device. "...aah... they're being used for their magical powers by an evil man... then he goes off on a tangent. "Save them, save them", repeated ad infinitum." Pleased that Tails got what he said, Yacker placed his arms together, as if he was begging for help.

"So, you want me to save them, huh...?" He asked, looking at Yacker with a grin, giving him a thumbs up. "No prob! I dunno what those guys are planning to do to you and your buds, but I do know it can't be good!"

Yacker seemed pleased at that, as he flew to give Sonic a high-five. "We should try and keep as low a profile as we can, though." Tails noted. "If they sent out robots after you, chances are that they'll try keeping an eye on us, Sonic. That means we can't just blaze through the problem like we used to with Eggman."

Giving Yacker the high-five, he smiled. "Eh, that's no problem, Tails! Now, how about we ask Yacker if he knows where his friends are being held?"

Yacker spoke. "...hm..." Tails hummed, as he narrowed his eyes. "...at our home... by the brightest festival... under the sea... in the dark place... and by the giant... burger?" Yacker nodded; as if what Tails had translated was 100% accurate.

"At their home... by the brightest festival... under the sea... in the dark place... and by the giant burger..." He counted them down. "That makes... five locations... and those descriptions..." He glanced to the sweet planet. "...is he saying his friends are on those planets?!"

Amy grew worried. "Oh, you poor things..."

"...guess the only way we can help out is to go to those planets and save them." Tails noted. Yacker nodded enthusiastically. "...now, there's five planets around us; with three of them open for business... which one should we go to first?"
