Chapter Twenty Five
Twenty Five minutes later; both super cars approached RoboTexas with the intent of destroying Robotnik's base and hopefully capturing him.
Modo: Alright, guys, we're going to be visible to him soon. Engage radar cloakers.
He and Amelia activate the cars radar cloaking devices in order to be invisible to the enemy's radar.
KITT: I'll start micro-jamming his surveillance soon.
Modo: No, not this time, Buddy. We want him to see what we're doing this time.
Sally: Uh, Modo, I don't know if that's such a good idea. He would have every Swatbot after us before we had time to plant the explosives.
Modo: Not if we have Sonic acting as a decoy.
Sonic: Works for me. I've been meaning to toast a few Swatbots for a while now.
DELIA: Do you want me to activate the countdown on the nitros, Modo? I think the sooner we have them activated, the less chance that Robotnik's robots will have time to try and disarm them.
Sally: She's right, dear. Although the Swatbots may appear to be simple; they do have data on their CPU's on how to disarm explosives.
Modo: Kitt, what time do you recommend in order for us to plant them before the 'bots have a chance to figure out what's going on?
KITT: Considering all we have to do is just drop the plastiques by the building; there is no need for any careful placement. Although I would advise you hide them so that it doesn't look too obvious.
Modo: Good point, pal. But you didn't answer my question.
KITT: No more than 15 minutes.
The Knight thinks for a moment letting the time allowed to sink in and for him to try and strategise.
Modo: Ok, pal, do it, you too, Delia.
Both cars activate the count down diallers on the explosives to 15 minutes and the countdown begins.
Knowing that they had a very limited amount of time in which to get the explosives planted, Modo hits the accelerator hard and hurtles towards the central building in RoboTexas. DELIA does the same and increases speed.
Modo: Ok, Sonic, go do your stuff.
Sonic: You got it, Mo! *jumps out*
The young hedgehog charges off at high speed in order to garner the attention of Robotnik's security.
KITT: Modo, we're nearing Robotnik's Central Control.
Modo: Ok, Kitt. Let's get this done and get out of here. I don't want to stay here any longer than we have to.
Sally: No arguments there, sweetheart.
Bunny: I think we should go and hit his power station too.
Modo: Won't that be a little risky?
KITT: I do calculate a risk factor in there, Modo. But it may be an idea to take out his weapon factory here.
Amelia: You heard him, Delia. Let's go blow up his factory.
DELIA: You got it, Amelia.
Modo: When you're done; head out of here. Don't wait for us.
Sally: He's right, you three. We don't want anyone to get caught in the blast from his central building collapsing.
Amelia: Understood. Just come out in one piece, Mo. I lost you as a lover; I don't want to lose you as a pal.
Modo: You won't. Now go.
The mustang raced off to the factory on the east side of the estate.
They get out and take all 8 of the nitro plastiques out of the trunk and carefully walk around the building planting the explosives next to the building under boxes, behind pipes.
They kept their eyes and ears open for hovercrafts as that would definitely hinder their objective here.
The last nitro was planted near his Central building's entrance.
Modo: *into com-link* Kitt, get over here, pronto!
Sally: Yes! All of our explosives have been planted.
KITT: I'm on my way.
The Trans Am engages his Automatic pilot and accelerates to the North side of the building where Sally and Modo were waiting.
Modo: Good timing, partner.
They get back in.
Modo: How much time have we got left?
KITT: *displays countdown on his second monitor* 8 minutes and 30 seconds.
Modo: It won't take us nearly that long to get out of here.
The Knight resumes control and steers KITT eastwards; out of the menacing and cold steel city.
Amelia: *com-link* Modo, we've planted the explosives and we're already out of the City.
Modo: Good job, guys.
Amelia: Robotnik will be met with a mighty hammer of justice!
Bunny: uh, Sugah? Are you feeling there ok?
Neither of them were familiar with Amelia's love of justice. And as such this caught them off-guard.
Sally: What was that about?
DELIA: Don't ask, Sally. Just…don't ask.
Modo: eyah…pretty much what Delia said.
KITT left Robotnik's base and would be clear of the blast.
Modo: I wonder what's taking Sonic so long? He doesn't strike me as someone that would take this long to lure the security away.
Sally: Probably just showing off. He'd better not take too much longer.
Modo was worried. Sonic didn't strike him as a guy that would take this long and not report back to them.
Modo: Kitt, tapp into Robotnik's system; I hope I'm wrong about what my gut is telling me.
KITT: *scans* MODO, SONIC'S BEEN CAPTURED! HE'S BEING HELD IN THE DUNGEON ON THE GROUND FLOOR IN THE SOUTH OF THE ESTATE.
Modo: How much time do we have before those nitro's go off?
KITT: Five minutes and counting!
Modo: We've gotta get him out of there!
He spins KITT around and speeds back to RoboTexas.
Sally: MODO! WE'LL NEVER MAKE IT IN TIME!
Modo: SALLY, IF WE DON'T GO BACK; SONIC IS A GONNER! And I leave no-one behind.
The super car accelerates into RoboTexas and headed straight for the dungeons in the South of the City.
Robotnik was gloating over his adversary in the dungeon.
Robotnik: I never thought I would see the day that I have you locked in my dungeon, Hedgehog.
Sonic: Don't get happy for too long, Robotnik. Modo and Sal will be back for me.
Robotnik: Then they can join you in your cell whilst I conquer the rest of Earth.
KITT was literally within feet of the dungeon now.
KITT: That's the building, Modo. My sensors have detected that Sonic's cell is directly ahead of us.
Modo: Hold on, pal. This may be a little rough! *accelerates*
His speed increased from 150-200 MPH.
KITT crashed straight through the wall and into Sonic's cell catching both him and Robotnik off guard.
Sonic: Your timing is perfect, guys! *gets in*
Modo: Thank us later. We gotta get out of here!
Robotnik: HOW DARE YOU CRASH THROUGH MY WALL!
Sally: It won't matter soon, Robotnik! You're finished here!
Robotnik: And what makes you say that, Princess?
Sally: In a word, kaboom!
Modo: *waves* bye!
Modo reversed his partner out of the hole in the wall and sped southwards out of the City.
Snivley: *intercom* SIR, SIR! ROBOTEXAS IS GOING TO EXPLODE!
Robotnik: WHAT?!
Snivley: They have planted explosives around Central Control. It's going to go in 2 minutes!
Robotnik: EVACUATE NOW!
Snivley: YES SIR!
Robotnik and his servant got to their hovercraft and lifted off just as the City exploded. Unfortunately for them; their hovercraft got caught in the blast and they crash landed in the desert.
KITT was heading Eastwards back to the Flying garage when he detected their ship crashing down.
KITT: Modo, I think Robotnik escaped the explosion.
Modo: Call Michael; have him get the authorities to arrest them.
Michael: *on screen* no need, Modo. They'll be with you in moments. I called them out after you headed out there.
Modo: Thanks, Michael. I just have one thing left to do before they carter him off.
KITT stops as Robotnik and Snivley exited their shot down ship. Modo got out and walked over to them.
Modo: how does it feel to be defeated?
Robotnik: How could one man and one car do this to me? It doesn't make any sense.
Sally gets out and joins her fiance.
Sally: It's very simple, Doctor; one man can make a difference. And that's exactly what he's done.
KITT: I hope they put you away for a long time, you ruthless Dictator!
Robotnik: I hate you all.
The army arrives and arrests Robotnik and Snivley for their crimes in America. By this point; Sonic, Bunny and Sally were in the cars with the windows darkened. Amelia sat on DELIA's hood watching.
General: This country owes you a debt of thanks, son. These two are going to be in prison for a long time to come for what they've done.
Modo: Wasn't a problem, General. *points to Amelia* I had my colleague over there helping as well, and my trusty Trans Am as well. You could say; he's like a partner to me.
General: Thanks again, son. *shakes his hand*
Modo: You're welcome.
The army leave with Robotnik in custody. Modo gets back into KITT and both cars undarken their windows.
KITT: Time to head home, I believe.
Modo: Absolutely, partner.
Sonic: Hey, Mo. Thanks for what you did for me.
Modo: De nada, Sonic. De nada.
They head eastwards back to the flying garage.
30 minutes later; they arrive back in the flying garage with the rest of the team applauding them for their triumph over Robotnik.
Michael: You did it again, you three. Wilton and Devon would be awfully proud of you if they were here today.
Modo: Thanks, Michael. But Sally, Sonic and Bunny all played their parts in this too. Not to mention Tails, for the work that he did on the cars earlier.
DELIA: He is quite the little genius if I do say so myself.
Tails: Aw, shucks, Delia. You're too kind.
Maria: No, she's right, Tails. Your work on Kitt and Delia was beyond impressive; especially for a young man of your age.
Chuck: I could use your help in my laboratory back on Mobius, Tails. Now that Robotnik is no longer a threat.
Sonic: Speaking of Mobius; have you made up your mind yet, Michael?
Knight had come to his decision.
The fact that Sally had proposed to Modo had a lot to do with what he was about to say and in fairness what the King had said had gotten through to him as well.
Michael: I've thought about it, Sonic. And I have decided that we shall not dismantle the transporter. King Maximillan is right; there is much we can learn from both of our worlds. That; and I know how heartbroken Modo and Sally would be if they were separated again.
The Knight was overcome with emotion realising that his mentor and father-figure had guaranteed that he and Sally were going to stay together this time.
Modo: Michael…*hugs him* thank you.
Michael: You're welcome, my boy. You're welcome.
Sally: Thank you, Michael. *kisses him on the cheek*
Michael: De nada, Sally. Oh, that reminds me; provided that Modo chooses to remain a FLAG agent; I am offering you a job as not only Kitt's cybernetic mechanic but his second partner as well. I think it's fair that Maria takes care of only one car.
Chuck: It would make sense; the world could do with another Knight that Champions the cause of the innocent like Modo does.
Sonic: I'd take it, Sal. But it's your call.
The young Princess was lost for words at the very invitation.
Sally: I don't know what to say.
KITT: It would certainly be helpful to have an on-board mechanic on our missions, eh Modo?
Modo: Was there a doubt in your mind that I would go to Mobius, Michael? Not that I don't like it.
Michael: I can't tell you what to do, Modo. I just wouldn't want to see a Knight like you go.
Sally: He won't; because you've got yourself a new employee, Michael.
Michael: *shakes her hand* welcome aboard, Sally.
Max: Is this what you want, Sally?
Sally: It is, father. I love Modo with all of my heart; I could not bare to be without him a second time.
Max: I'll expect you to visit on occasion.
Modo: No problem, sire. Mobius is a great place to visit, and it'll be even better with Robotnik gone now.
Sonic: You said it, Mo. You have helped to rid our world of the biggest cloud of terror and anguish that has plagued us for years.
KITT: Sonic, that was very…poetic.
DELIA: I concur.
KITT: Looks like you're not the only one that can surprise people, Modo.
Modo: I did get that feeling, Kitt. By the way; did you analyse my theory on what I said about Lamont possibly lying about not needing the CPU module?
KITT: I have been analysing your theory on the way back and I have some rather disturbing results.
Modo: And they would be?
KITT: He was lying.
Modo was annoyed. He had a suspicion at the back of his mind that his enemy would pull something like this but to actually go through with it was making him see red.
Modo: I knew it. I KNEW IT! That low-down, lying, conniving, back-stabbing weasel lied to me! I'm glad that I trusted my gut-instinct now!
Michael: A guy like him never changes, Modo.
Modo: Kitt…
KITT: Yes, Modo?
Modo: It took us five hours to get to Oklahoma City, right?
KITT: Yes.
Modo: We'll see you in Ten hours. *gets in*
Sally questioned this. Why he would feel the need to travel all that way again since they were left unscathed.
Sally: Is this really necessary, dear? No harm came to us.
Modo: Sally, he deliberately lied to me about that detail knowing that there was a chance that Karr would reactivate himself and possibly kill us all when we least expected it. Now, I don't know about you, but I'm going to Oklahoma to give him a piece of my mind!
Even the King was starting to feel righteous about this. For him, the utter nerve of making such a play that could've gotten the young warrior killed as a means of petty revenge was unforgivable.
Max: I concur with you, my boy. A man of his position will never change and he would look for any chance to get revenge on Modo. My Boy; do what you must.
Modo: Thanks for understanding, sire. *switches KITT's engine on*
Max: And, Modo? Call me Max; seeing as you're going to be my son-in-law.
Modo: Thanks, Max.
Michael: Y'know what? I think I'll join you, Mo.
Modo: *surprised* really?
KITT: Michael, this is most unusual.
Michael: I've been meaning to ride with you again, Kitt, and I want to give Lamont a piece of my mind as well. Seeing as you're intent on letting him know how ticked off you are; I also want to show him how I feel about him lying over that detail and possibly killing the people that I call my family.
Even the Princess was starting to see things Modo's way. She was beginning to get as tempted to leave Lamont with a black eye as he was.
Sally: After hearing that; I'm going as well. After what that man has put you through; I want to get a few things off of my chest about him.
Modo: Anyone else coming?
Max: I believe the expression; too many cooks spoil the broth comes to mind. I'll be staying here.
Amelia: I won't be. *gets in DELIA* after what Lamont tried to pull earlier this year; he too will feel the wrath of my righteous hand.
DELIA: Oh, dear. Would you like to accompany us, Sally? It seems a bit unfair that Michael is going with Modo in Kitt and Amelia is by herself.
Sally: Why not? I've been meaning to ride with you anyway. *gets in DELIA's passenger seat*
Michael: *gets in KITT's passenger seat* let's go, pal. Maria, you're in charge until we get back.
Maria: Ok, Michael.
KITT leads the way down the ramp followed by DELIA; and they charged northwards to Oklahoma to pay an old adversary one last visit.
Modo: Ok, pal; plot us the fastest course to Oklahoma City.
KITT: The way we took last night is the fastest, Modo. I presume you wish to take that one again.
Modo: You presumed correctly, Kitt. Now, let's do as we did before and charge through the desert to cut off some miles. *floors it*
The Trans Am increases to 150 MPH.
Michael: I've never really seen before close up how well you handle my old partner, Modo. You're good.
Modo: Thanks, Michael.
Michael: De nada.
KITT: That has to be big a compliment for you, Modo.
Modo: What do you mean?
KITT: The fact that Michael is impressed with your driving.
Modo: It sure is.
DELIA increases to 150 MPH as well, and the two super cars shoot northwards.
Some time after 8 PM in the evening; KITT and DELIA arrive in Oklahoma City.
KITT: Just as well you called the Warden again, Michael. I don't think he would have allowed Modo to enter if he knew of the 'personal' reasons for us being here.
Michael: I know, buddy. Sometimes you just have to show a little tactfulness.
KITT: Now remember, Modo? Keep your temper.
Modo: Partner, my fiancee will be with me in there along with Amelia and Michael; I intend to keep my cool. Even if the guy just makes my blood boil…
Ten minutes later; the cars pull into the Penitentiary Car Lott. They get out of the cars and head to the visitors entrance.
Sally: Just as well you explained to the Warden for no one to react in any way to me walking in there, Michael.
Michael: Sally, as far as I'm concerned; you are no different to any other decent woman on this planet. You have nothing to hide.
KITT: *com-link* I believe Modo said something similar to me on the way back from Saint Louis in regards to that.
Sally: Explain it to me later, Kitt. We have matters to attend to right now.
KITT: I know.
After meeting with the warden and having Michael explain who Sally was after he questioned him about her; the Warden very perplexed, showed them in to Lamont where he was waiting in the visiting room alone.
The young Knight got very tense before entering the visiting room at which point that Sally was growing concerned.
Sally: You ok?
Modo: …I just wanna get this over with.
Sally: I know…just keep your temper. I know that's easier said than done. But just remember – you're better than him.
Modo: I hope so….because I've seen my angry side, Angel. I don't like what comes out of me.
Sally: You got this. Just put him in his place – and get out. Alright?
Modo: Sure. *deep breath* let's dance.
Modo entered first.
Lamont: *sees Modo* well, I see you found out that I wasn't quite up front about Karr then?
Modo: Do not tempt me to beat you about with my bare hands, Lamont. I am in no mood for your smug behaviour. Why did you do it?
Lamont: Do what?
Jeda was losing his patience already.
It was bad enough that he taken a chance on omitting some important details about KARR, but to have his intelligence insulted was just icing on the cake.
Modo: Don't toy with me, Teddy. You know full well what I am talking about. Why did you lie to me? Not that I shouldn't expect it from a scumbag like you.
Lamont: What can I say, Jeda? I saw an opportunity to get a small amount of revenge. And when my sentence is done; you would not be around to stop any of my future schemes. You plagued me for a good year until you had me put away in Prison. It's people like you that made my operations more difficult to operate. I wanted you out of the way; and I figured that telling a small lie might get you out of the picture. And the very fact that you're here; suggests that you trusted your gut and didn't believe everything I said. You are such a persistent Knight, Jeda.
Michael walks in after the guard opened the door.
Michael: You're damn right he's persistent, Lamont! That's why I recruited him to be my replacement.
Lamont: Michael Knight? You must be irate about me if you've come here as well.
Michael: You lied to my Knight about a minor detail that could have cost my team their lives along with the lives of other innocent people, and I am not gonna stand for it! What do you think this is, Lamont? Fun to you? You make me sick!
Lamont: And what is it going to do, Knight? No one can get me in here. I am safe in here from people that wish to tare me apart.
Sally had heard enough and the guard let her in.
She had only known about the crime-lord for 2 days and she now hated him just as much as her fiancé did.
Sally: Don't you dare give me a reason to, you vile, heinous coward!
Lamont was shocked to see who was speaking to him before his very eyes.
Lamont: What on Earth are you?
Sally: My name is Sally Alicia Acorn, what I am is of no consequence to you. Who I am is very important to the man that you made suffer 6 years of pain; you killed an innocent woman and several others like her.
Lamont: Who are you talking about?
Sally: I am talking about Mara Hayfield; my fiancé's dead ex-girlfriend.
The crime lord looks to Modo and then Sally and is shocked at what to think.
Lamont: You're engaged to this, this…thing?! I don't which one is the freak here!
Modo was ready to snap at this point. So much so he was about to throw a punch when Michael and Sally restrained him.
The Princess simply shook her head as he looked at her.
She was just as tempted to leave him with something to think about but knew that would only serve him more problems.
He relented and put his fist down before looking at his enemy with glaring eyes.
Modo: Don't you dare call my fiancee a freak! The only freak here is the one doing time. My partner has taped our conversation, and I will use this against you for what you did. Do another stunt like that; and we'll have you transferred back to San Diego where a lot of your ex-employees have been keen to catch up with old times.
Michael: What goes around, comes around, Lamont.
Sally: I don't ever want to see you again, Teddy. After what Modo told me about you; you are nothing but a poor excuse of a human being. People could lose their faith in humanity with thugs like you. However; people have faith in it with men like my Modo around.
Modo had turned around and started to walk away as he didn't want to be in his presence a second longer as he knew he might do something he would regret.
Lamont: And it's people like him that makes my life difficult. Just too bad he had to settle for this freak. What's the matter, Jeda? You couldn't get another girl after Mara died so you had to settle for an alien from another world? I might be a criminal but at least I don't date outside of own my species.
Modo stopped dead in his tracks as that really rubbed him up the wrong way. It was one thing to bring Mara into this, but to make the obscene comment about Sally was infuriating him.
Michael: That's kinda racist, Lamont. But you're scum, so that's expected.
Lamont: shut up, Knight…
Sally: You RACIST PIG! I'm a person – NOT an animal!
Lamont: Shut your hole, fur-ball!
Jeda clenched his fist and teeth in anger as that single comment was tipping him over the edge.
Modo: *clenched teeth* ….what did you say about her?
Michael recognised the tone in his voice and knew that a fuse had been lit with his anger.
Michael: Modo….don't do it!
Jeda turned round and slowly and methodically walked up to Lamont until only an inch separated them.
Taking into account what the Knight already loathed the crime-lord for, now he had touched a very wrong nerve with a prejudice statement towards his fiancée.
Modo: I'm gonna ask you again – what did you say about her?!
Lamont felt very uncomfortable sensing that Modo was about to get physical.
Lamont: hey?! I got rights. You can't do this in here.
Modo: Rights? You robbed, murdered and ruined people lives and you want to talk about rights?
She came to his side attempting to appeal to his more rational side as she could see that he was about to do something he would regret.
Sally: Honey?! Let's not do this. He might be scum but he's not worth it.
Modo: He just insulted you. I'm not gonna stand for that.
Sally: I appreciate the sentiment, sweetheart – but he's not worth putting your hands on.
Michael: Modo, Sally's right.
Jeda held his hand up motioning to Michael that he had this under control.
Modo: Lamont, I'm gonna say this nice only once – if you EVER insult Sally like that again….I will put you in the Hospital. *points finger at him* BANK on it!
Amelia is the last to walk in.
Amelia: *slaps Lamont* that was for trying to steal my Delia earlier this year. And I will not forgive for what you put Modo and thousands of other innocent people through. You unjust monster!
Michael: GUARD; we're through here.
The team leave a very confused Teddy Lamont trying to work out what had just happened.
Outside; Modo took a huge sigh of relief after walking away from a situation that he nearly regretted.
Modo: *sighs* I've never been more relieved to walk away from that piece of garbage.
Michael: You nearly assaulted him.
Modo: Part of me wishes I had. I will not accept someone talking about Sally like that. Now we can add racism to a list of crimes he's committed.
Sally: As tempted as I was to hit him as well, I'm glad you didn't. And….thanks for defending me.
Modo: *smiles* I won't have anyone talking about my Angel like that.
Sally: come here.
They embrace in a hug and Michael smiles at the young couple reminding him of the happy times he had with Stevie years before.
Michael: You got yourself a winner there, Sally.
Sally: I know. He's the best.
Modo: Right back atcha.
The team got back into their cars after leaving the Prison.
Michael: I think Lamont will be in Prison for much longer, now that we had him confess that.
KITT: He certainly will be, Michael. That confession from him; will keep him behind bars for at least an additional 3 years to his already twenty year sentence.
Modo: What matters is he got what was coming to him; punishment for lying about something which could have got us killed. Anyway, let's go home, Kitt.
KITT: Sure thing, Modo. I suppose you don't want to stop at that all night diner for a drive-thru on the way back?
Modo: after what I had to eat there? No way. That place has chronic indigestion written all over it.
Modo starts his engine and drives the Trans Am out of the Prison Parking Lott along with DELIA.
Michael: How bad was the food?
Modo: Michael, believe me when I tell you; you don't wanna know.
Michael: Oh, it can't be that bad. Swing by there on the way back, Buddy.
KITT: Alright, Michael. But don't say we didn't warn you.
Michael: I've had junk food before and came out fine, pal.
DELIA: *com-link* how you two can eat junk food is beyond my comprehension, Michael.
KITT: You'll never get through to him on that, Delia. I've been barking up that tree for years.
Amelia: I prefer hot-pot myself.
Sally: I trust they didn't have any cheese and salad sandwiches, Modo.
Modo: 'Fraid not, Sally. It was either junk or nothing there.
Sally: Given the choice; I think I'd prefer nothing.
Modo: I wish I had. Worst take-out ever.
Once both cars were out on the highway; KITT and DELIA shot into the distance back to the flying garage in South Texas.
Sally: You may as well tell me what Modo said when you were leaving Saint Louis, Kitt.
KITT: Very well. What he said was in regards to you being a humanoid-squirrel from another world, and I quote; it's like in a way meeting people from different countries and just accepting them for who they are, not what religions or cultures they have. Or even what they look like.
She smiled realising what she had already suspected about him.
Sally: All he said was something I already knew what he felt about me, Kitt. He just accepted me for who I am, not what I am.
DELIA: And that is an attitude that everyone should adapt too.
Modo: I couldn't agree more, Delia.
The super cars continue southwards.
On November 25th 2006, at a small Church just outside of San Diego; after speaking with the vicar, Father Stevens, roughly a month ago and allowing him to understand that Sally was just as decent as any other woman and that she was just as human mentally, the Vicar had no problems in performing the wedding.
Michael was Modo's best man, with Amelia, Maria and Bunny being the bride's maids.
Michael and Modo were standing next to the altar. Both were wearing black tuxedos and with black shoes.
Michael: You feeling nervous?
Modo: Just a little.
Michael: You'll have nothing to worry over, my boy. If you can bust a drug sale, stop Karr in his tracks and imprison a Dictator from another world; you can handle this.
Modo: Thanks.
Michael: I want you to know; that I'm very proud of you as a Knight, and also someone who is like a son to me. And whatever you do; don't let her go.
Modo: Thank you, Michael. And I won't let her go.
The wedding music played; all of Modo's family and friends rose from their seats along with Sally's family and friends.
Sally walked down the Aisle in a traditional white wedding dress accompanied by her father wearing a blue tuxedo.
When Sally got to the altar; Modo was blown away by how beautiful she looked.
Modo: Wow!
The Vicar ran through a traditional line of questions until it came down to the very important one.
Father Stevens: Do you; Modo Antonio Jeda, take Princess Sally Alicia Acorn, to be your lawful wedded wife?
Modo's side of the audience were in shocked whispers of 'did he say Princess?'
For him – this was something he wanted as equally as she did – happiness.
Modo: I do.
Father Stevens: And do you; Princess Sally Alicia Acorn, take Modo Antonio Jeda, to be your lawful wedded husband?
This is what she had waited for. Her man – all to herself forever more.
Sally: *smile beaming* I do.
Father Stevens: I now pronounce them; man and wife. You may kiss the Bride.
Modo lifted her veil over to kiss her tenderly.
The whole church clapped with happiness at the two being married.
Once they had walked out to the Car Lott; King Maximillan walked forward.
Max: Modo, in order to complete this ceremony; I must ask you to kneel.
Modo: Very well, Max.
The King drew his sword and placed the flat side of the blade on both of his shoulders.
Max: By the powers vested in me; I Knight you; Prince Modo Jeda. Arise, Prince.
The young Knight arose to a hushed reception from his family, now knowing that he was part of a royal family from another time and place.
Modo: Thanks, Max.
Max: As you say, my boy; de nada.
KITT was sat waiting just behind the King.
KITT: I am so happy for you two. But, Modo, one thing; don't let you let being a Prince go to your head.
Modo: Somehow; I don't think I'd be allowed to even if I wanted to. I maybe Royalty now, but; I'm still a Knight of the people.
Sally: And so am I. Let's go, partners.
Modo and KITT: Right away, Sally.
The newly married couple get into the Trans Am and head off to the reception area back at the Foundation.
*scene shows KITT driving down a freeway*
*Sally's Voice in his head: One man can make a difference, Modo*
KITT drives off into the distance.
Sally's voice: Modo Jeda; a man for freedom and justice in a dangerous world; the world of the Knight Rider.
The end
