Chapter 1 - Memories

It's hard to believe what just happened. Many people have called this month the 'Month of Sorrow' and I am inclined to agree with them. First it was the incident with Tails parents, they caused enough pain to sort us for many years. I just had to go out didn't I?! I can't help but blame myself for this. If I hadn't found Chalk, if I hadn't been so careless about her, if.......sorry. It just keeps running through my mind. I can't stop thinking about it.

It's been nearly five days since Robotnik's Destroyers swept across Mobotropolis. It was painful to watch. I never knew Robotropolis but I do now. I can see why everyone cherished what Mobotropolis was. Marble and skin to metal and happiness to despair. It was awful to see the children's reaction to it all. Lavender hasn't stopped crying since we had to flee. Miles and Alicia are taking it slightly better. They do have each other after all. Saying that Bunnie found them both curled up in a ball together crying the other day. The loss of Sonic, Sally, Tails and Amy has been a hard blow and there is worse. We've got reports that Little Planet is gone. Who knows where it's gone. It could be lost forever now because the Time Stones went with it. And so did Marian and Patrick.

Bunnie has also had a hard time. Knuckles never returned from his trip to investigate the Floating Island. Reports tell us that the Floating Island is completely gone and in its place is a huge field of energy. What's more worrying is that the field is expanding. We haven't been able to determine the rate but it is expanding.

The others, well there coping, I think. I can feel Petya's sadness through our link. She has spent a lot of time alone and I worry about her. Sonia and Manic have been looking glum for days. They've been through this before in there reality but they never expected it to happen again. Charles hasn't rested in days. He is so determined to resurrect the de-robotisiser technology. He hasn't had much luck though. The records were destroyed and he is going of memory.

Anyway I must sign out now. I am needed on the defence line.

It..........it happened. It was my fault as well. My carelessness has led us almost to the brink of destruction. I was coming back from a strike on Robotropolis when.......I didn't notice it. A security orb had followed me back. Those orbs are more intelligent now......I couldn't.......no! No excuses! I was careless and we have paid for it today. Robotnik launched a full scale attack on our base in the Great Forest. We barely got away with our lives. We lost everything! Weapons, plans, data crystals, everything. Robotnik knows all about us now. None of our other bases are safe anymore. We have to start over and hope to survive. Life will be hard now. Life will be very hard indeed.

After over a year of running and retreating we finally might be able to take stand! Today will be a day to remember in the fight against Robotnik. Today Knotlake was finally established! A place we have been working hard to create since last year. A place of commitment, courage and determination. I haven't felt anything like it in my life. The atmosphere is buzzing. You might almost be forgiven to think that the whole situation around us doesn't exist. We finally have something to smile about.

Now it is time to strike back! We have a base, we have a plan and soon we will have the mean to carry it out. The children seem to be coping slightly better now anyway. Miles and Alicia have even started training to become proper freedom fighter. They are doing well too. Alicia is very athletic and has a good mind for puzzles, she has also taken to Bunnies martial art lessons really well. Miles is still a bit wild. He's trying to hard to be like Sonic. It's understandable I suppose. But with all the excitement and happiness, people's spirits have been lifted and nobody really cares.

Ah still can't believe he's gone. It's been nearly a year and a half since Knuckles was presumed dead. We haven't found any trace of him anywhere. It's not fair. We were just starting to get it sorted out between us and now he's gone. I still wake up in the morning and think he's still here. Then I remember and I burst into tears. Ah've tried to put it behind me but it still comes up. Ah still hold a little hope that we will find him, it's what keeps me going.

On the other hand we have a few things to celebrate. Knotlake has now been established for nearly three month. In that time we have made more advances than in the last year. What was lost has been found and what was taken will soon be taken back. Robotnik fell once and he will fall again!

I've done it! I didn't think it was possible but it was. I have been able to recreate the equations and designs needed to build a de-robotisiser. I haven't told anyone yet but when the news come out it will no doubt spark the 3 month anniversary into something much bigger. I've been working solid for a year and a half and I've finally done it. All I have to do is refine the design slightly and then we can begin construction. Once that is done we can finally formulate a rescue plan. Don't worry Soni boy we're coming to get you!

We did it! We actually did it! I can't believe it. After two years we have finally taken the first step to retaking Mobius. Yesterday evening myself, Chalk, T2 and Petya led a raid on Robotnik's main control building. As we expected Robotnik sent our friends to stop us. After a small battle we managed to knock Sally out with an EMP pulse. The others eluded us this time but it's a start. We we're not without our casualties though. We would have lost T2 and Petya were it not for Chalk. She threw herself into the line of fire allowing T2 to capture Sally. Chalk was badly injured. She is conscious though and for that everyone is thankful. Sally is due to be de-robotisised later today. Charles has been madly tinkering the de-robotisiser all morning. He wants to make sure everything goes smoothly. We all do really. I just hope Chalk is ok.

I will say this much. There is not one part of my body that does not hurt. I do not regret what I did. If I hadn't taken the shot T2 would probably be dead and probably so would Petya, Sonia and myself. If T2 had been hit and killed he wouldn't have been able to knock Sally out with the pulse. I also felt a need to do it. A sudden surge of responsibility. I guess I'm still guilty about what I did under Robotnik's control. The others have forgiven me and welcomed me into the group but I still do not forgive myself. I probably never will. Not until everyone is safe and Robotnik is finally driven from our lives. On that day maybe I will be able to let go of the past. Until then I must remain as I am. That is a certainty.
