[QUOTE="Ice the frosty cat, post: 32903, member: 115"] Chapter 8 “Tails, this is an active volcano right?†Bushy asked Tails. “Yeah…don’t worry, it erupted a few weeks ago; it probably won’t erupt for another fifteen to fifty years; and even if it was close to another eruption, it would be unlikely to erupt while we’re here,†Tails replied.
