MS. BUTTERSWORTH.
CHAPTER ONE
It was a gorgeous day in the Mystic Ruins, particularly on the crown of the Floating Island. The sunlight struck the Master Emerald in a way that made it seem to glow. Just a couple of feet away from it was our hero, Knuckles the Echidna, who was fast asleep and dreaming about the things that young adult male echidnas dream about. He rolled over in his sleep and mumbled, "No thanks, Ms. Buttersworth.I'm stuffed." The birds were chirping, it was warm outside, there was a slight breeze, the world was perfect.
For now.
Knuckles suddenly awoke from his slumber with a feeling of anxiety. There was an intruder on the island. Knuckles could feel it. It sent shivers up his spine. He had to find the intruder and deal with it. NOW.
He ran down the steps, but didn't have to go far. There was another echidna standing at the bottom of the steps that led to the Master Emerald. He was slightly taller than Knuckles, and his dreadlocks were short, they only reached his neck. He was also a pale gray color. A sense of fear radiated from him. " I don't know who you are," said Knuckles, "But you had better leave before there's trouble." The intruder looked up at Knuckles and scoffed. "You are but a trivial matter, guardian. Why don't you go back to sleep before you get hurt?" Knuckles fumed. "Whatever you want, you're not going to get it," he said, "unless you want a black eye!" Now the intruder was angry. " Don't you know who I AM?!? I am Dark Rex, undying, eternal, forever! NOW FEEL MY WRATH!" Dark Rex lunged up the stairs at Knuckles, but Knuckles was ready for the attack and punched him across the face before he could connect. This sent him tumbling down the stairs. He hit the bottom with a thud, and before he could get up, Knuckles was on him. Knuckles sat on top of him and started to punch Rex's face, but Rex used his legs to propel Knuckles off of him and into the steps. Knuckles moved out of the way just in time to avoid another attack from Rex. Knuckles was lucky he moved, because Rex had smashed the steps with his attack. Rex swung again, this time hitting Knuckles in the face. Knuckles stumbled backwards, rubbing his face. His left eye was bloody. Knuckles was enraged. The guardian started to scream, which surprised Rex. Knuckles used this to his advantage and grabbed Rex by his arm. He then began to slam Rex into every large pillar and boulder lying around. It is safe to say that Rex is NOT a happy boy at this time. Knuckles led Rex to the edge of the island. "You'll regret this!" Rex shouted. "Yeah, right." Knuckles replied. He threw Rex off the island. There was a dull thud miles below him. With a sigh of relief, Knuckles returned to his perch close to the Emerald. As knuckles turned around though, he saw something that chilled him to the bone. A column of smoke was shooting out of the ground in front of him. Slowly, a form appeared in the column. The smoke stopped spraying. Dark Rex was standing there, laughing. "I told you, guardian! I am Dark Rex, undying, eternal, forever!" He picked up Knuckles by the neck and threw him into a pillar, which collapsed around our hero. Knuckles was barely awake enough to see Rex floating above him. "You foolish echidna, I will put you out of your misery."
He gravely said. He held his arm out in front of him and opened his hand. A black arrow appeared in his open palm. He threw it at Knuckles, and it exploded when it hit him. Knuckles wasn't moving. Dark Rex triumphantly marched up to the Master Emerald, and with one quick pull, yanked it out of its foundation. He then disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
