I just wanted to get this idea out into writing before I read further into other works from SpaceCruiserStarr7833 and Supreme S.R.
The horns are sounded as the entrance of the two most honored men in the kingdom of Azure stride across the hallway to meet. They turn to face the corridor with a red carpet, stretched across the floor leading to the thrones. Only one of these thrones is occupied by the Princess Salina, or Sally by those in the royal house. Half excited to bring her father's name to another land across the seas, and half grieving for the throne she is seated in, is that of her late father's.
One knight is dressed a in white cloak which circulates the sides of his arms with his hood off and his kingdom's flag, that of a octagonal zircon within a circle of black and a white within that with designs of abstract to fill the spaces, stretched across his neckline down to below his knees. His inner clothing, blue in color, and wearing pants of comfortable measure which tuck within his shoes which is buckled twice on his pant legs . His blade, sheltered and nestled upon his right hip. His gloves, gray in color but almost silver in hue, bares the nations flag in his backhands.
The other knight drenched in black. His armor, dark as the night sky, covers his shoulders and chest. His gloves are metallic and are lined with a guardsmen insignia, a knight's helmet with a shield in the background. His pants, gray and almost black, lead around his shoes which are brown in color.
The two men turn from each other and walk across the walkway as a general sounds "Present, arms!" as the swordsmen present their blades for a triangular shape as a make shift hall. The men walk through the path, well aware of what awaits them. They walk toward the throne while the people of their kingdom watch as their heroes are about to spread the word of their kingdom as they sing songs of their valor.
Atrion, a blue hedgehog, who's known for his victories. Commonly he is known as Sonic by his allies for unknown reasons. Together with his associate, he vanquished the dragons of his kingdom and ended the tyranny of several slave traders. He as well had his time with the princess but it all fell down hill as the king restricted it. His story was that of that of a fairy tale, but he knows not what lies within him, neigh the end of his freedom and comfort.
Draco, a black hedgehog , who's more widely known notoriously for his true position. He is the Head of the Guards within Azure, and he is and his men were said to read the very souls of by passers. Attempts of deception and trickery to smuggle restricted materials into this kingdom were all set in vain as soon as they were planned for nothing escapes them. He was also known for his great victory that ended the Knight War, which seemed to have left him and Atrion as the last knights. Shadow was his nickname by smugglers and slave traders of Sefta, a city of gang lords fighting for dominance. He was then called that by other guards of his allegiance as the name stuck to his fancy.
These two knights are known as the "Knights of Azure" for they are that is left of chivalry, knighthood, and honor. They near the princess and kneel to her highness.
"Arise" she says as her noble men do as she pleases. "Nights of Azure," she announces "You men have ended wars, destroyed threats and elminated the tyranny of a neighboring kingdom. In recognition for your actions, you are to to take my father's name into a new land to further spread our empire. May you be granted a safe journey." They crowd cheers for their quest, not knowing of the knowledge of events that shall return to their kingdom.
Far, far away in another nation, lies Grandium, a land of pure technological advancement. This kingdom is ruled by a monarchy under the control of Mayor Miles and his associates, Anny, or Bunny, and Rotor. The nation has been prosperous and peaceful until word spread out of Miles agenda. It is a fully automated living space as drones tend to the every need of it's inhabitants. This was due to a early idea of Miles, a prodigy, two-tailed, fox, that man work can be cut by the use of AI.
A young rabbit of 19 approached the the docks where a her sister frequented. She finds her sister on a barrel, overlooking a ship being loaded with a new machine for testing. "Bunny, have you seen Miles?" Her older sister of 23, seemingly bored to death, turns to her and smiles, "No, I haven't Cream, but I think he might be in the workshop with Rotor and Smith." She leaves in a hurry thanking her sister on the way.
As she nears the shop, she can hear the clanging of metal and sparks coming out from the large metal garage door. She finds Rotor and the local blacksmith, Smith, working on a large engine of some kind. She takes a look around and cannot seem to find him. Rotor is under the engine tweaking a few knots and bolts as usual while Smith works on a new kind of gear. Rotor rolls out from the bottom on a wheeled board and spots the disappointed little rabbit sit herself on the table. Rotor approaches and rests his hand on her shoulder. "What's the matter?" She looks up to him and begins to blush on her thought. "Um... Rotor, can I ask you something?" He smiles as her expression changes. "Sure, anything." She turns around wishing that she hadn't asked. "Um.. does Miles like me?" The purple walrus smiles dimly and answers. "Of course he does. Who wouldn't?" She pouts at him trying to give him the idea of what she means. "No, I mean, does he like-like me!?" She tries to whisper in annoyance. "Like-like?" He dimly asks again. She leaves in frustration and walks away, still blushing wildly.
Smith approaches Rotor, wiping a drop of sweat from his forehead. "You do know how stupid you sounded, right?" He faces him and settles down his wrench. "Yeah, but it's for her own good. I'm not sure how Miles feels for women and Cream is much to naive when it comes to him. I just don't think it's the right time." Smith raises his eyebrow and laughs with his hammer on his shoulder. "What's so funny?" The engineer asks. Smith wipes a tear drop from his eye, "Since when do you know when a girl is or isn't ready to go out? You've never even dated!" The man says proudly as he laughs again.
"Just because you've dated women doesn't mean you know any better on how to treat them!" Rotor shoots back. "Hey, of course I know how to treat a girl!" Smith counters. As the two argue, Miles enters the room with a confused expression. He sees Smith giving Rotor a half nelson while Rotor is about to hit him with the wrench he recently had in hand. In an instant they stop and stand straight and face him. "Um... you two done?" Miles asks. "Uh... yeah." Rotor plainly says.
"Good then. The presentation for my new weapon needs some help. Can you guys give me and Bunny a hand?" The two nod and follow him out. "Oh," Smith remembers "Cream was looking for you." He doesn't face him and says "I'll talk to her tonight."
The moment of the presentation is at hand as the nights sky glistens for the occasion. Miles stands before the crowd of contractors. "Citizens of Grandium, and loyal buyers! Have you ever fought in battle and had trouble when you're out of ammo?" This very line intrigues the crowd as many men try to figure out what he can do to fix that problem. One of the massive emplacement guns, mounted on a metallic battleship, fires at a thick, three layered, metal barrier in the water. "Well trouble yourselves no longer." The gun shifts open as it's openings suck in massive amounts of air. "By using the materials in the air, like carbon monoxide, or any bits of objects just floating in the breeze, we can turn them into a dark liquid and solidify it in a chamber within the weapon, sometimes with several chambers, to create the necessary ammunition without even spending a cent! I present the efficiency of..." The cannon fires three shots in succession, completely obliterating the target. "The Synthesis Chamber!"
The crowd applauds Miles as he walks down the path. Cream admires him from afar, sighing in pleasure as she gazes upon him. It finally clicks into her as she run down to him.
A hedgehog with a fox tail nears Miles and says "Impressive performance." Miles faces him after waving goodbye to a friendly client. "Oh, you must be a new client, I'm Miles." The man smiles "So, I've heard. I am Shane Derts, I come from an organization known as 'The Circle' and I need to show you something." Cream runs towards him and grabs Miles's arm. "Oh, hey, Cream. Can we talk later?" Before Cream can get disappointed at all, Shane interrupts "You can bring your girlfriend if you want." Miles blushes "No, no you don't understand she's not my..." Shane stops him "It's okay. I won't say a word." Miles sighs in frustration as he follows him with Cream latched to his arm.
In the land of Eternia, a princess, eager to prove herself has created her own secret force to defend her people and claim a land. Her name is Ahria but she is commonly referred to as Blaze. Her group of warriors, known as The Blazing Front are skilled in the way of the sword and have power over the land for their high positions in society. "Faster! Stronger! You can do better than that!"
She urges her warriors to train harder as her associate nears her. "Blaze, we need to talk." The young pheonix in her maroon outfit brings the princess to a nearby window. "Trigger, is it time?" She asks "Almost, princess, almost."
