Hi. I wrote this on my laptop a while ago and found it in my documents this morning. After readig through the whole story I decided to put it on Fanfiction. Anyway, I hope you like it. I look forward to your reviews. Now on with the story!
Rouge the bat hit a weak pillar, making it crumble. "Just give up Bat-girl. You're never getting the Master Emerald." Knuckles the echidna said huffing and puffing. Bat-girl ,or Rouge the bat, had tried to take the Master Emerald everyday for a month now. Or at least that was what she was acting like she was trying to do. All she really wanted to do was spend time with Knuckles, and this was the only way she could think of to spend time with him. "I'll never give up! All the worlds' jewels belong to me!" Rouge snapped. She grunted suddenly, gripping her right arm. "Rouge!" Knuckles yelled. "I don't need your sympathy!" Rouge growled. "Fine." Knuckles said crossing his arms over his chest like he always did when he was mad. Rouge went to punch Knuckles with her weaker left arm. She began to propel herself forward using her left leg and then suddenly collapsed! Knuckles' eyes widened but he didn't move or speak. "I'll retreat today. But I assure you, Knucklehead, I'll be back tomorrow." She announced. "Whatever." Knuckles said simply. Rouge began to flap her wings swiftly. She had just reached the top of the tree line of the forest on Angel Island when she began to feel light headed. Uh oh, I must have lost too much blood. She thought. "Knucklehead..." The beautiful, white female bat managed to say before she passed out.
Luckily, Knuckles heard her voice; he turned around to see Rouge falling to the ground! "ROUGE!" Knuckles yelled, catching her before she landed. "What have I done?" The red echidna asked himself in horror. He looked at Rouge's arm and leg, only to see them bleeding heavily. Tears came to Knuckles' eyes as he realized Rouge's injuries were his fault. Damn it! I love her so much, yet all I can ever do is hurt her! Damn it! "Don't worry; I'll take care of you." He whispered sincerely into Rouge's ear. Truth be told Knuckles was glad he would be able to spend some time with Rouge where they weren't fighting over the Master Emerald. That emerald has caused a lot of trouble, but if I didn't guard it I would have never met the beautiful female treasure huntress Rouge. So I have to give it credit for that much. Knuckles thought as he carried Rouge to the shrine.
A few hours later. Rouge sat up moaning, her head pounding. She grunted, again gripping her arm. "Oh, you're up. You must be hungry, here." Knuckles said gently, handing Rouge a hand full of berries and a cup of herbal tea. "You can stay here awhile, as long as you promise not to steal the Master Emerald." Knuckles said to Rouge, sitting himself beside her. "Sure." Rouge answered quickly. "Thanks...but why are you being so nice to me?" She asked, completely confused. "Because, I'm the one who hurt you." Knuckles said, tears forming in his eyes once again.
I know this chapter is short. Acualy all the chapters are short. But it's still a good story. Anyway, please review if you like. Both flames and compliments are welcome. See ya soon.
