Emerald Rage Pt 3
Reds Retaliation!
"Hey Knux wake up time to get to that emerald" Sonic said throwing a pillow at Knuckles "Wa huh oh sonic" Knuckles mumbled, "How's the memory?" Tails asked the sleepy Echidna. "Um better, I remember the Robotization process but I rather wouldn't" The Echidna mumbled. "Huh I know how you feel" Sonic said reappearing with his sneakers "Lets get to the emerald" Tails yelled from the tornado 3 with VTOL was hovering at the window. Sonic and Knuckles jumped on the Tornado while Tails powered up and into the morning sky.
"I don't like this, the floating island is far to quiet the island usually has that glow about it but it seems empty," the hedgehog said spotting the island "Hmm the emerald will tell me" Knuckles said as the plane landed near the altar. Knuckles and Sonic jogged up to the Master emerald a light surrounded Knuckles and a flash blinded everyone else when the light dimmed the others rubbed their eyes while Knuckles just stood shocked "No no no no no no" Knuckles yelled frantically "Knuckles you ok is your memory back?" Sonic asked slightly scared but he remembered his true power and calmed down "I'm fine but all my life has been a lie... all of it" Knuckles said coldly "How come?" Tails asked stepping up to the altar "My true power has been hidden away from me all my life by this piece of JUNK!" Knuckles shouted punching the Master Emerald "Sonic I need your help" Knuckles said in a monotone voice "How?" The confused Hedgehog asked "Destroy this piece of junk, my power is not strong enough you'll need to go Super sonic to put a dent in it "No…I'm not destroying what you have spent your whole life guarding" Sonic argued "That is not what I have been guarding!" Sonic understood and powered up to Super Sonic he punched the emerald until its outer shell was cracked and he destroyed it with a quick blast. A hole in Floating island started spreading and the island started cracking "Knuckles grab my hand" Super sonic yelled grabbing the falling echidna "A-arigato" Super sonic flew down the rest of the island to save the Tornado 3 from falling but tails got there first without help and started it up Sonic raced up to the Tornado when 'Let me out' a voice in Sonics head said Sonic stood still in his tracks "No! I won't let you out!" Sonic yelled out loud "Sonic quickly get on!" Tails yelled from his aircraft "Sonic lets go" Knuckles told sonic still holding on to his hand for life "I don't… think…I…can" Sonic whispered before powering down and falling to the ground "SONIC!!" were knuckles words before falling into the abyss with his friend.
They awoke to a pulsating sound coming from all around them "Uh KNUCKLES WAKE UP!!" the red Echidna woke up rubbed his eyes which in half a second were full of amazement "Guardian you have returned to the hidden palace" A voice came from nowhere "TIKAL!!!" Sonic yelled slightly peeved, there she was normal she wasn't a robot she was just normal. Tikal ran down to Knuckles she hugged him he didn't respond at all "Love whats wrong?" she asked he scowled. "Do not call me that!" he said flatly "Oh you are wondering, that robot it was just a clone it wasn't me when I fell off floating island I awoke here a marvellous place" Tikal explained to the annoyed echidna "No Tikal it's not that can you recall the Prophecy of Furendac" Knuckles smirked at the confused girl "Hmm I found this book with prophecy in this temple I think" she led them to a room but they passed a locked room on the way Knuckles was going to check this out.
"Hmm lets see" she said looking through the book "Ah here we go. 'With the end of Chaos the guardian will end up taking a transformation and will fall in love with the wielder of immortal power' Huh you will fall in love with the strongest being on this planet who's that…Sonic you look ill?" Tikal said, "I will find out for sure when I see the super emeralds" Knuckles stated confusing Sonic "Very well I understand clearly" She took them to the locked door and with a wave of her hand opened it the door opened with white light and when it subsided Sonic stared in awe there it was 7 emeralds the size of the master emerald and a bigger master emerald sitting at the centre of this room Knuckles was away straight away at the master emerald he touched it he started glowing "Oh my god I can see it all my true power its emerging its overwhelming AHHHHH!!!" Knuckles yelled as his colour flickered from white and red and stayed like this "I am super Knuckles my power is equal to yours Sonic but rather than a fight I can think of ten things I'd rather do but it is necessary to test my skills Sonic powered up to Super Sonic and engaged knuckles while Tikal just stood there the fighting was totally equal and no-one got a good hit in 'Let me out and you can beat him' the voiced returned "No not the voice its tearing me apart" Super knuckles stood there confused Super Sonic was screaming and holding his head "NO CANT LET YOU TAKE OVER AAAAAAAAAAAAA GGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sonic screamed then emerged in a flash of light as Hyper Sonic he charged at super Knuckles whop bravely fought back he was a match for Hyper sonic but not by much Hyper Sonic got more punches in but knuckles got a few energy blasts in and disabled hyper sonic for a second managing to talk to him "Knuckles you cannot destroy me Hyper Sonic is immortal you can only weaken me even then the chances of that happening are extremely difficult but the way to stop me is to…AAAHHH" he lost the control and frenzied but as any good fighter knows anger is a good motivator but a terrible ally Super knuckles took advantage of this they kept on fighting knuckles missing punches and Hyper sonic dislocating Knuckles arm with a sickening crack but the warrior kept on fighting "Paralysis fire" Tikal yelled sending a flame towards Sonic he fell to the ground and lost his power Knuckles also powered down "Knuckles you fought bravely against me but to stop Hyper sonic from escaping you must kill me" Knuckles kneeled down next to his friend "No…no I can't kill you…no I can't" Sonic angered "You must! Everyone will die if he gets out!" He yelled, "Let them die if it means I can spend just 1 second with you" Knuckles whispered in Sonic's ear "You mean t-that…?" Sonic asked, "I love you sonic" he replied Knuckles kissed sonic lightly who didn't respond "Sorry Sonic" Knuckles said absolutely terrified of what came next but he wasn't expecting what actually happened "I can't move remember tell Tikal she can let go she looks like she's about to faint.
