Dead end, the silver hedgehog felt wind pass him almost painfully, branches began to scrape at his falling form, bruises and small cuts leaked small amounts of red fluid. He was incapable of moving his arms forward from the wind, and instead spanned his arms out with all his might. A green blue aura surrounded his hands and engulfed his body. He suddenly stopped in mid air and opened his eyes, slowly letting out a relieved sigh, he shifted his hands, and turned to a floating position, looking upward he saw the cliff, and darted off in the opposite direction. Happily twirling in the air, his aura staying around him tightly. 'That was a close one.' He thought in victory, as he practically glided, spinning and skipping in the air. He turned his head slightly glancing back at the red figure on top the cliff. Five quills that made a smoking sign on his head fluttered with his two long feminine like quills.

"SUCKER!"

He yelled out for the figure to hear, as he floated away quickly hearing muffled yells from behind, not caring enough to hear what was yelled. Soon he felt someone tap his shoulder, and his eyes widened. Slowly looking back to see the red figure he had just flown away from. 'SHIT HOW THE HELL DID HE, oh wait he can glide... FUCK!' The one gliding on his sweet red dreads, held a strong grip onto the silver ones arm, he tugged away as the stronger of the two held his wrist.

"Get OFF-"

he shouted but the echidna had already jammed a needle into his upper arm, causing the aura of green blue to fade away, the silver hedgehog grunted in pain his head already becoming numb and pained with a sudden, horrid migraine, the red one snickered holding his captive as he glided downward to the ground on his dreads, the hedgehog followed suit, without a choice since it was either weigh him down and fall to your death, or spread eagle and glide with him. He groaned in pain as the drugs took effect rather quickly.

"Stupid hedgehog."

The silver one was too disoriented to hear, or say anything to the others statement, the red one landed and let the hedgehog tumble in the grass and dirt, getting his ivory quills muddy with both redish brown dried blood, and dirt, his wounds would surely be infected soon. The red one walked up to him, and roughly held him up by the arm and sat him back down correctly, his spiked fists flexing as he examined the hedgehogs wounds, and took the syringe out of his arm, tossing its empty contents into a nearby trash can.

"Looks like you'll need to visit the nurse."

He stared into the ivory creatures hard, jagged topaz eyes, topaz gems looked back into hard, smooth purple amethyst. They stared for a few moments in a heated glare of wonder and interest. The silver one spoke first, finding it a bit easier now.

"Why do you keep me here guard?"

The one across from him smirked.

"Well its my job, believe it or not, this job is what I live on, one slip up and I'm literally history"

The silver hedgehogs eyes softened as he stood, and walked to his prison yard. The red one stared at his leaving form and asked.

"Where are you going, prisoner?"

He followed, as said prisoner spoke.

"I have a name ya know, and since I lost the game, I'm going back to my cellie."

The guard tilted his head.

"Then what's your name?"

The hedgehog stopped just outside his cell door.

"My names Silver, and yours, Guard?"

He looked to the guard for his name, searching his eyes for knowledge, he only saw the others honesty within those pretty smooth pools of amethyst.

"My names Knuckles, it's nice to know someone else around here."

Silver looked to him noticing his stern face, his unflinching motion of the arm holding the key to open the cell, and his sparkle of purity in his eyes.

"So... You're a newbie."

Silver stated non-chantily, as the other nodded slightly.

"I see..."

Silver walked further into his cell once it was open as he smiled.

"Hope we meet again sometime Knuckles, your fun"

He smirked as his eyes slanted downward onto the hideous pink tray of slop they called food here, he never ate it unless he was desperate and he wasn't desperate tonight.
