shattered symphony (FINAL)

...

After the Team Dark had a daily thorough cross-questioning with the United Federation for roughly about weeks after the riot, they've made up their minds to subject approximately 30 million children to serve years in juvenile detention. They couldn't see any apt alternatives, and the  Caterwauls have committed numerous criminal deeds in the past several days. Though despite all of that, the process is far from easy as falling from a log. 

"Your citizens had gotten more violent, so we should resort to a more stricter option," The G.U.N commander suggests, glancing at the President.

"No, we could do better than this." The President replies as he tensed up.

"Then what are you gonna do? They're millions and millions of people, and it's not like I can plop them all in prison." The commander argues.

"Listen, they're mostly stained young minds who had unintentionally turned their backs on us, and I still have hope we can change them for the greater good." The President contends.

"-Change? It's plain obvious that they can't be trusted in the first place. Either we get rid of them or let them grow until they overthrow the government for good." Shadow insists, crossing his arms.

"Thinking in absolutes isn't helping matters. We can take care of them without employing violence." The President asserts.

"Okay, just how about you'll carry that through?" The commander puts forward.

"Alright, we'll send the Team Dark to spectate on the scene, have them send us information so you can assess on how we'll carry out the capture." The President promptly responds as he gazed at the commander.

The last-mentioned commander would huff deeply and hesitantly comments, "Very well, I don't know what to do aside from this. I'll coordinate with my men, get as much backup as I could get." Everyone in the White House nods in unison.

Meanwhile, Sonic and Tails has stepped out of the apartment and into the grassy backyard. They both began to have a dialogue shortly afterwards.

"So, what's been bugging you lately?" Sonic asks Tails, glaring at the fox. 

"Um, I don't know what I'm exactly feeling, but," Tails sighed, "I loathe it when Cream flirts with other boys like Charmy. Not to mention that they'd often tease each other." He frowned.

"Huh, what do you mean they tease each other? I see nothing off with that." Sonic replies, "-But the flirting part is definitely questionable to an extent." He adds.

Tails threw his hands up in the air, "..Just let me speak, would you?" He glowered at Sonic.

"Oops, I'm sorry," Sonic briefly covers his mouth with his one hand.

"Anyways, I've already talked about it with Silver, but it still doesn't feel right." Tails insists, "It seems like she's way more happy with someone else and it mortifies me, I gotta admit." He moues.

"I mean, it's not entirely unreasonable. I've dragged her into trouble many times and as a result, she's unsurprisingly disturbed!" The fox further remarks, "To sum it all up, I don't deserve her. The idea is she would've have not gotten wounded If I'm extra careful with all of my decisions." He claims as he exhaled, much to his discontent.
