FastReader22: I thought that, well, writing a new story would be better and I was reading about Mario on Wikipedia so I thought maybe I will write a fanfic about Wikipedia. And I did. You may skip until you see a bolded line.

Sonic, Amy, Tails, Blaze, Silver, Knuckles, Vector, Charmy, Espio, Cream, Cheese, Big, Cosmo and Vanilla were all crowding around the computer. They were going to invite more people to come, but no more than fourteen people could squeeze to see the computer screen. Luckily, the computer was the new Apple computer which had widescreen.
"So, what should we search for?" Amy asked excitedly.
Vector shrugged, "I don't know, it was you who called us over to admire your new Apple computer."
"Look!" Tails exclaimed, pointing at the screen.
Their homepage which was Noogle had some news. It said 'Wikipedia won the Most Visit Website Award for the first half of 2010'.
Cream said, "Let's check Wiki…Wiki…"
"It's Wikipedia, sweetie," Vanilla patted Cream's shoulder.
Sonic clicked on it and when they reached the front page of Wikipedia, they were stuck. They had nothing to search for.
Blaze suggested, "There's a nice picture there at the animal section. Let's check that out!"
Sonic scrolled down to the animal section and read out, "All about echidnas today. Just a click away."
"What the hell would Sonic click on that for!" Knuckles blared. "You can just ask me, I'm an echidna."
Charmy sighed, "Knuckles, Wikipedia has all the information that you might not know about! Click on it, Sonic!"
Sonic clicked on the word 'Echidna' and left the page to load.
Knuckles growled and said, "If I get to you, Charmy, I'm gonna…"
He could not end his sentence as the page already loaded. Knuckles started reading it really quickly.
The first line was 'Echidna, also known as spiny anteaters, belongs to the family Tachyglossidae in the monotreme order of egg-laying mammals.'
Silver gasped and pointed at Knuckles, "Oh…you're an anteater! What's an anteater?" He ignored his own question and continued to read.
Espio said, "Scroll down, Sonic. I wanna read the description."
Sonic scrolled down to the description.
Echidnas are small mammals that are covered with coarse hair and spines.
Big exclaimed, "You have spines? Where? I wanna see them!"
Knuckles slapped Big's hand. "Knock it off, Big. It's just spines."
Superficially they resemble the anteaters of South America and other spiny mammals like hedgehogs and porcupines; this is due to convergent evolution.
Cream asked, "So their saying that echidnas look like hedgehogs and porcupines?"
"Hey, now that they mention it, yeah! Knuckles looks pretty much like me!" Silver joked. He was always joking now and then.
"Could you just shut up for a second?" Knuckles slapped his forehead. "You guys are killing me, literally."
They have very short, strong limbs with large claws and are powerful diggers.
Tails said, "Knuckles didn't tell me he was short. Or can dig well."
"Who the f*** said that to you?" Knuckles blew his top. "I'm taller than most of you and you guys can dig much faster than me."
Blaze was thinking. "So, you're saying that you're not an echidna?" she finally asked.
"Did I say that?"
Amy agreed with Blaze, "But you disagreed with most of the facts here."
Before Knuckles could say anything, Big said, "Let's just get on with the facts."
Echidnas have a tiny mouth and a toothless jaw. They feed by tearing open soft logs, anthills. And use their long, sticky tongue, which protrudes from their snout, to collect their prey.
Vanilla said softly, "Eww." She did not want to ruin Knuckles feeling.
"That's so disgusting!" Charmy exclaimed.
Everyone had a disgusted expression except for Knuckles and the kind ones.
"Excuse me," Vector said as he went to the toilet and vomited.
Knuckles banged the table, "I can't take this anymore!"
Male echidnas have a four-headed penis. During mating, the heads on one side "shut down" and do not grow in size; the other two are used to release semen into the female's two-branched reproductive tract. The heads used are swapped each time the mammal copulates.
Sonic, Tails and Silver went to the toilet to vomit this time and the others skipped that line and went on to the next line.
Contrary to previous research, the echidna does enter REM sleep, albeit only when the ambient temperature is around 25°C.
Cosmo looked at the thermometer. It was over 30°C and Knuckles sure was wide awake. She zoomed back to her seat.
The rest of the facts were boring so they decided to help cool Knuckles by going back to the front page.
"Let's look at the character section," Big suggested.
Sonic looked over at the character section. "Uh no." On the character section, the huge words 'Knuckles the echidna, famous and fun-loving'.
Tails gulped as Sonic clicked on it.
Silver whispered, "Go to personality."
"Yeah, now!" Charmy encouraged.
Vector said, "Don't be afraid."
Cosmo held Tails's hand and clicked on it with the mouse. Tails blushed slightly as Cosmo smiled.
Knuckles is honest, independent, headstrong, devoted to his duty and often gullible.
At reading that, Cream said, "Wow, Knuckles! You're so great!"
Cheese added, "Chao! Chao!"
Amy said, "Hey, Knuckles skip the last three words because if you blow up, I'll hit you with my Piko Piko Hammer!"
Big and Espio exclaimed, "Go to relationships!"
Amy eyed Knuckles and went to friends and allies.
Sonic the hedgehog (friendly rival)
Miles "Tails" Prower (Good friend)
Rouge the bat (sometimes, possible love interest)
Dr. Eggman (formerly)
Knuckles stood up and wanted to throw the computer out the window. "I don't like Rouge!" he screamed.
Amy used her Piko Piko Hammer and whacked his head. She read the names and said, "Sonic, you two are friends."
"I guess they haven't updated it for like, a year," Silver noted.
Vector said, "Maybe two."
"I said one year. Means one year."
Charmy and Cream said, "Put a sock in it!"
Vanilla said, "Let's check out rivals."
Wario (in the Olympic Games)
Rouge the bat (Rival)
Blaze the cat (Formerly)
Blaze asked, "Why the hell is my name in rivals? We're friends. I guess."
Cosmo scrolled down to enemies.
Shade the hedgehog (formerly)
Rouge the bat (in incidents involving the Master Emerald)
Knuckles nodded, "Yeah, that's totally true."
And there they had it, the story of echidnas and Knuckles.
"This shit is finally over!" Knuckles laughed madly as he raced off.
Everyone shrugged it off.
A/N Click on that button down there to make me smile. I like long reviews and if you think this story is horrible, then don't click on that button. The next chapter…I don't know who yet. For the relationship, I only wrote those with tags. Most of the information is true.
