The Dark One rose from his throne, as he heard His Guardians of Darkness approach the dark fortress.
Within a few moments, an enormous shadow enveloped the castle, and Dulcy the dragon landed, with all other GOD (except for Metal) and a captive and unconscious Knuckles.
Excellent – muttered Sonic – Now hand him over to me!
Yes my lord – answered a nervous Amy Rose, while she picked up the Echidna, and was being the cold eyes of Sonya.
You have fulfilled your promise Rose, congratulations, but tell me, wouldn´t you like to please your old master yet another time?
Of course sir!
Good, I knew you would say that! I want you, and only YOU to go deep down the city, I suspect the Cyborgs have their informators there!
Sure my master, anything you desire – she declared as she ran.
Now, put Knuckles in the dungeons… - Sonic ordered to the other GOD
Though Sonya was reluctant, she did it, because she didn´t want to lose her life. However, having Knuckles, the only man who truly loved her, disappear forever, was far much worse.
So, when they reached the dungeons, she injected him with a strange substance…
Don´t worry my love – she thought – you won´t feel any pain with this now…
As she left the room, Sonic entered and sat next to Knuckles.
Well, well, well, Echidna, here we are yet again, face to face, despite all the years that have passed.
Uhh, where am I – the Echidna pondered as he was waking up?
Not a good place, that's for sure asshole – said a sadistically cocky Sonic
Aww, shit…what do you want?
Just the secrets of The Neo Freedom Fighters, your loyalty, your excuses for even thinking you stood a chance against ME, and maybe, I will let you live!
Humph, no way idiot, think I´m what? Stupid to join a freak like you?
You sure act and look like your stupid you know? Come on Knucklehead, face it, there is NO hope for you to win this war, the only hope to survive you have left is to join me!
Stick your up your ass, MOTHER FUCKER!
IDIOT!!! – yelled an angered Sonic, as he slashed Knuckles in the face with his claws- I will have to do this the hard way, won´t I? – he declared as he put his hand over the Echidnas head.
No, what are you doing, STOOOOPPP!!!!
Meanwhile in a place far away
Miles – Lumen said in his angelical voice – you are ready!
