His gloves were matted with blood and dirt, with the blade he took dripping with the red liquid. He didn't like taking lives. Not with anyone, no matter how bad. He knew that some people didn't deserve to live, especially monsters like Edmond.
He knew he had to get rid of the blood. Maybe a river or stream could help. As he sped down the road he noticed that he didn't know where he was going. He wasn't lost. He just didn't know his current location.
He took his gloves off, hiding them in his quills just in case someone found him and questioned the blood. He decided that the best thing to do was Chaos Control to Sonics energy. Problem was that it took a lot out of him. Better save his energy for now.
He quickly blasted down a path, hoping to find a town or village to ask for directions. Hopefully, he would be successful. Or maybe not.
"So Sonic," Amy said as she held to his arm. "Where are we?" The land was unfamiliar. There were no cars, no skyscrapers. Just, houses and forests, pollution nonexistent. She really needed to know.
"Oh yeah! I was meaning to ask about that!" Tails said. He was butt tired and he didn't feel like doing too much thinking. Sonic was chewing his food as slowly as possible, trying to avoid the questioning. Good thing he had a loyal knight to explain.
"You are in Camelot, the land of our lord and king," Lancelot said. He had finished long before Sonic did. Tails looked a little bit skeptical.
"Really? Camelot? Like in the legend of King Arthur?" Let it be said that he was still capable of thought, even when sleep deprived.
"Unless our king isn't sitting right next to you, yes."
Tails gave him a skeptical look. He's dealt with some crazy bullshit. A water god, a time-traveling weirdo. But this? This sure topped the barrel. What's next? Aladdin?
"So you're telling me. That we were pulled from our world into the fictional world of Europe?"
"Yes. And our world as you put it is not as fictional as you can see. It's as fictional as yours." Was Lancelot's quick rebuttal.
Nimue looked at them in concern. She didn't want these two to fight right now. She picked up her glass and took a sip. She wasn't the biggest supporter of alcohol, but she did have the occasional glass. Amy just looked at her counterpart. Wondering why she was giving Lancelot such an odd look. Did she like him? She had to admit that he did look handsome without the scowl shadow always had.
Sonic squirmed in his seat, an uncomfortable look on his face. Why did his friends have to butt heads now? He was a king, so what? That didn't change him in any way.
Tails, with all of the maturity he could muster with his fourteen years of age, threw his hands up and gave it up. Sure, why not? He's dealt with weirder.
"What is going on my lord?" A familiar voice said. The party then looked over towards Sonic, questions ready to fire.
"Sonic, who said that?" Amy asked. Sonic let out a sigh and pulled out Excalibur out of his sheath.
"Guys, meet Excalibur. Caliburn, meet the gang." The blade then floated from his spit and gave the newcomers a look over, holding himself over Amy and Tails.
"I do say Sir knave, that these two look oddly similar." He got closer to the pinkette and gave her a scrutinous look. "Very similar to our fair and regal lady and a curtain Smithy we've met."
Sonic just palmed his face. Why were his friends so weird. At least Nimue was calm now.
"That's because they're from my world Caliburn, you just fell asleep during the explanation." His friends looked on in awe. Tails especially looked driven for something.
"Sonic you have a talking sword!? That's so cool! How does it work? Does he need batteries? Is he a robot?" Let it be said that Tails was a nerd, first and foremost.
"Magic." Was Sonics response. Tails wasn't deterred, however, looking more excited if anything. He was about to ask more questions when Amy perked up.
"So when you told you came here you were…"
"Telling the truth, yeah. But don't worry, I barely believed it myself." Any seemed to look a little less guilty at that. When everyone with food had finished, they left the pub and went on their way, heading towards the castle walls.
