The Sidekick

While Sonic and Tails are battling the Burnbot, Eggman's newest creation, it smashes the wing of Tails' biplane, the Tornado, and Tails crashes, being knocked unconscious in the process. Alarmed, Sonic scoops up Tails and retreats, and when he awakens, Sonic tells him that he can no longer be his sidekick as the job is too dangerous. Sonic holds auditions for a new sidekick, attracting competitors such as Knuckles, Amy, and new introduction the Fastidious Beaver, as well as Eggman and a temporarily disguised Tails. Only the latter two sufficiently meet Sonic's stipulated criteria, so he is forced to allow them and the Beaver (who has stayed around) to compete in a race; the winner will become Sonic's new sidekick. The Beaver is knocked out of the race early, but Eggman shortly reveals that his own application was insincere and he wants to destroy both Sonic and Tails. With a repaired Burnbot, he battles them again. In the fray, Sonic is knocked into a frozen lake, so Tails rescues him and they push the Burnbot through the ice to its demise. Sonic warmly accepts Tails back, and Amy offers instead to be a sidekick for Knuckles.
