Hello! I'm sort of new to writing sonic fanfics so If I screw up... Its my fault. This story contains... some yaoiness... with sonic and knuckles the main focus. So if you dont like, DONT READ. Sound fair? Good. The couples mentioned in this fic are Sonuckles and Shadilver. Also, I may misspell some of the names from the Archie comics. I don't really read the Archie comics often and only have 3 comics of theirs, sorry.
Anyway, I don't own Sonic and Co. Sega owns them.
Sonic walked down the hall thinking today was going to be like any other day, with the exception of a transfer student enrolling into class. He entered the classroom and set his stuff down on the desk ready for the lesson to begin. His impatience grew as he waited for the morning bell to start, so he decided to chat with his friend shadow and silver. "Hey shadow. What's up?"
Shadow gave him a glance of slight annoyance."Basicly bored waiting for the morning bell. I'm curious about the new student though. I heard he couldn't speak English, so they'll have a translator for him in class."
"Wow. Wonder what country is he from. Maybe from a third world country?"
Silver cuddled up to shadow and turned his head to speak. "I think your right. I hear people say he is from an Island nation, way up in the sky."
Sonic's jaw dropped. "Wait... an island in the sky? It couldn't be Angel island.. that place is supposed to be desolate and cut off from the outside world. He's probably from somewhere els-"
He was cut off as Mr. Mogoul walkded into the room. He was followed by an adult and a strange boy with dreadlocks. The whole class gave their attention to the three, Shadow and Silver of course shifting back into their seats.
"Class," Mr. Mogoul began, "This youth that you see here is Knuckles. He is an echidna from Angel Island. I understand that it may seem strange to have an islander here in the school, but make sure he gets a warm, happy, Mobius Master welcome okay? Also please keep in mind that he does not speak our language and will be learning that as he learns with us, so bear with him."
"Hello everyone. My name is Finitevous. I am knuckles' translator and parental guardian while he stays on the surface world for the school year. The language knuckles speaks is Mayan. It's considered a dead language to the surface world, however it is still spoken on Angel Island*. I hope you all will greet us warmly." Finitevous took a bow and Knuckles did the same.
"..." the young echidna said.
The class looked at Knuckles with confused faces.
"It means, 'I hope to get along with everyone well'" Finitevous clarified.
He showed Knuckles to his seat and stood right beside him. Then Mr. Mogoul opened his book, "Alright everyone, open your books to page 25."
As class went on, Sonic began to watch the student as he tried his best to take notes with the help of his translator. He was puzzled by the way he looked. Strangely, for a guy, he had long hair like silver but it was a bit more dread-like and weighed across his shoulders like a girl. Although he was wearing the school uniform, he wore a necklace that looked strangely tiki-like. He kept his gaze on him until the end of class bell rung. The sound snapped him out of his focus. He got up from his seat and walked over to his friends Shadow and Silver to eat lunch.
They started their feast in silence until Silver broke it. "So, what do you guys think about the transfer student?"
Shadow scoffed and took another bite of rice from his boxed lunch. "Hmph. Just another student that I probably wont care about."
Sonic bit into the chili dog he had packed in his boxed lunch and shrugged. "I'm not sure just yet. There's something about this guy, that seems intresting."
A/N: First chapter completed, YAY! A little note to all the readers. The language that Knuckles is speaking in this fanfic is actually Proto-Mayan. Proto-Mayan has branched out to many different catagories, so its not exactly considered a dead language. When Knuckles speaks, there is nothing in text, however the others can hear what he is saying and cannot understand him. I did this because I don't exactly have any clue about the words of the language and I wish to respect the language by not putting random words in. He is talking... its just that we can't see it. Much.
R&R please. Chapter 2 coming very soon!
