Bonjor! Or, as I like to say, howdy y'all! So, now we move on to the next chapter of the three part series, Crossing Through Space! So, lets get on with it shall we?

ABCSonicKirbyWarriors: Hmm, starts with a 'A'? Close... so close... and yes, Shadow does make things interesting!

Summery: Knights has been captured by Eggman! But why? What does he want with her? And what's this about him killing Sonic's best friend six years earlier? And why doesn't Shadow, who watched everything apparently, do anything to help the trapped hedgehog we know as Knights? Will Knights get away? Escape? Will Shadow save her? Where's the real Sonic? Shouldn't be here to stop the madman? And what's up with that crazy machine Eggman's flying?

Disclaimer: I do not own Sonic, Shadow, or Eggman. I only own Knights and the story line. Thank you.

Chapter Three: EggmanLand

Knights struggled against her resistances. The cold metal bit into her fur and skin, causing blood to spring from the fresh wounds.

"Quit struggling hedgehog. You'll only make this trip worse for the both of us. I don't need you killing yourself before I put you in a proper cell and take you to Sonic!" Robotnik snapped, glaring at the purple hedgehog.

Knights glared right back before looking around the cockpit. There had to be a way out of here, there just had to! Right? She hoped so.

The two were currently flying over the overly large amusement park known as EggmanLand. Knights glanced down at the roller coasters, Farris wheel, and other rides as they flew towards a large tower in the center of the park. The same logo from Robotnik's mech was on the tower, just ten times larger.

Got to find a way out of here, Knights thought, struggling once more. But how? Appeal to his sense of remorse? the hedgehog snorted. Yeah right, he doesn't have any sense of remorse, or mercy for that matter. So how?

Then it came to her, sure the plan would probably kill her, but hey, at least she'd be out of these dang restraints.

"So you plan on making the world into a giant amusement park?"

Robotnik gritted his teeth. For the last three minutes, that hedgehog had been asking him dumb questions. The doctor was starting to lose his temper with her.

"No, you fool. I will take over the world and rule it as its leader!" Robotnik snapped at her. The hedgehog wasn't the least bit impressed.

"By creating an amusement park?" she asked.

Urgh! That was IT!

Robotnik slammed his fist on a large button as he stopped the Egg Launcher Supreme. The long window opened and the mad doctor flew out on his hover chair.

"Hey! Where are you going?" Knights -that was her name wasn't it?- asked, looking out at Robotnik.

"I've changed my mind. I won't use you against Sonic. I'll just kill you now!" Robotnik laughed. Knights stared at him in horror, at least, that's what he thought. "The ELS will crash in about two minutes, so I hope you enjoy the flight!" with that, the evil doctor flew off, laughing to himself.

Knights waited till the nutcase known as Doctor Robotnik was out of sight. Quickly, the purple hedgehog went back to fighting the restraints.

Almost… almost… she thought, twisting her arm one way then the other. It hurt, mostly her shoulder blades, but the female hedgehog ignored it. She didn't have time to worry about her wounds. Not if she wanted to survive the next minute.

The cockpit suddenly started flashing red, the sound of alarms blaring. Knights paused, looking up long enough to see that she was about to crash.

Swallowing back her growing fear, Knights struggled harder. How could such thin robotic arms be so strong?

Shadow stood atop the Eggman Tower, the centermost building in EggmanLand, and the main building at that.

He watched as the doctor ejected himself from the weird machine, snapping at something inside before flying off, laughing.

What is he up to now? Shadow wondered, prepared to followed the doctor. He stopped when he noticed a shadow move frantically inside the cockpit. Giving into his curiosity, Shadow turned to watch the machine descend rapidly.

He blinked with surprise when he noticed what the movement was.

It was another hedgehog.

For a split-second, Shadow wondered what Sonic was doing in the cockpit of Eggman's machine. Then he realized the stranger wasn't Sonic, but some random female hedgehog.

What in Chaos is that hedgehog doing here? Shadow wondered, flicking an ear. It didn't matter, it was probably some idiot the doctor had tricked into helping him.

With that in mind, Shadow turned away, catching sight of Eggman's retreating hover chair, and followed.

Knights stared out the window, golden eyes wide.

Great job hedgehog, how are you going to get yourself out of this one? Knights asked herself, looking around frantically. Well, whatever I do, it better be quick. I've got about thirty seconds till this mech crashes.

With that cheerful thought, Knights began to move her legs as if running. The first few attempts ended with deep lacerations just above her ankles, but the purple comet managed to get going, her legs moving as if she were back running in the field. Her legs moved faster and faster, till the metal could no longer hold her in place, breaking apart and falling, useless to the ground.

Take that Robuttnik! Knights smirked, then kicked the left arm holding her wrist. Once that one was taken care of, she did the same to the right.

Now free, Knights hurried to the front of the cockpit, looking over the controls. It wasn't as complex as she had feared, nothing like that mech-tech she destroyed last month. Knights' fingers flashed over the controls, she barely glanced up from her task, knowing that she was just seconds away from crashing.

Unfortunately for her, there would be no way she could stop the crash in time, so the best she'd be able to do is try to make it a little smoother then it could be.

This wasn't going to be easy.

Shadow leaped from building to building, following Dr. Eggman as he floated off to another building, this one with a large hanger.

The black hedgehog had just landed atop a drink stand, when he heard the sound of something crashing, then exploding.

Remembering the strange hedgehog, Shadow turned around, his eyes searching for the source of the explosion.

There.

Just beyond the Eggman Tower, a mushroom cloud of smoke and fire billowed into the air.

Knights was sure that if she hadn't had her super speed, she'd be charred hedgehog.

The purple comet watched the smoke and fire for a moment, the sight reminding her of her old stomping grounds, Glowing Island in the middle of the Glowing Sea, back on Psymoria.

Back when she blew up the whole island.

Knights shook her head, she couldn't think about that. Looking around, the young hedgehog started to feel a surge of depression. This place was so big, how was she suppose to get out of here?

Dum-de-dum-da. And so ends chapter three. We get a little peek into Knights' past, and see Shadow.

What will happen in chapter four? How will Knights get out of EggmanLand? Why is Shadow there? What's Eggman up to?

Lets not forget the question on everyone's mind since the last chapter: who was the girl Eggman killed six years ago?

Next- Chapter Four: Lost In EggmanLand.
