To The Brink
Prologue: The Sapphire Stone
Some beings in the world crave power whenever they can possess it. It makes them stronger and invincible. They are never satisfied with what they have. They need MORE! Before the time of the Chaos Emeralds, there was a powerful jewel that many beings of the planet didn't know about and unfortunately, there were few to know and witness the power of the Sapphire Stone.
Many years ago, around the time of mass civiliation of Mobians, a well -known and professional craftsman was paid to find a rare and extravagant material of rock so that a rich customer would be able to live in a beautiful summer house. The craftsman was paid handsomely and was soon off on a trek to find such a rare piece of rock. The journey took a nearly a week of planning and two months of searching over the globe looking for such a rare and priceless material. The craftsman traveled to a lone island that he couldn't find on the map; for on this unknown island there was a large volcano. That Mobian (Nathaniel) traveled to the base of the volcano, hoping that the volcano was dead and inactive. Dusty smoke bellowed from the top, but the volcano showed no signs of activity. Nathaniel looked along the ground of the volcano and saw a shiny shade of dark blue colored rock glinting in the sunlight. He chipped off two large handfuls and traveled back home on his small boat. Back at his workplace, Nathaniel showed the fragments to his apprentice, Clark. Clark was indeniably impressed by the shape, texture and overall quality of the rock. Clark asked what type of rock it was and Nathaniel couldn't answer. He himself honestly never saw a material of rock such as this in all of his life of craftsmanship. The rock was so shiny that Nanathiel could see his reflection in it. Except for the area that he cracked, the remaining area was smooth as glass. Nanathiel thought of his wife and the color of her eyes, that was the same color as the piece of rock was. For the stone, he gave the name Sapphire. Thus, the discovery of the Sapphire Stone came known to the world.
Later, Nanathiel showed his customer the rock fragment and she was very pleased. She would have the craftsman and his apprentice take a large boat back to where he found it to excavigate and transport the material back. She paid Nanathiel half now and would pay him the rest of the payment when the house was built. It was on the night before the boat trip and Nanathiel and Clark were both busy with preparations for the trip. In his free time, Nanathiel had made a small hexagon shaped stone out of one chunk of rock that he would give to his wife as a present. Clark studied the other piece while looking at a map by an open flame. Clark left the stone by the fire and went to locate a navagational route with Nanathiel. Clark came back to the fire and tried to grab the stone, but almost burned his hand due to the intensive heat that the stone was carrying. Clark dropped the stone in the fire and yelled in pain. Nanathiel came running to see what was the problem. Clark told him about the stone and Nanathiel grabbed a stick and pushed the stone from the fire. The two saw the stone glowing bright blue right before their eyes. They didn't know what to think of this phenomenon. Nanathiel told Clark to pour water over it and Clark rushed to get a bucket. He did as he was told, but the Stone was still glowing bright blue. No stone that Nanathiel seen in his lifetime has never done such an act before. Clark wondered if the stone had absorbed the heat from the fire. Clark rushed over to Nanathiel's work table and felt the small stone that he made. The stone was pulsating with a small amount of heat as well. The two had stumbled upon an incredible act of nature, but they sat around wondering what to do with it, and rather, how to figure out how to use their experiment. The Stone could absorb heat and harness it, that part was utterly obvious. The only problem was that how could you use a fire stone without touching it? The two tried various tools of both wood and metal but the heat of the Stone melted them. They decided that building a house out of this stone would kill anything inside it. A probable theory they thought was that the stone could absorb the heat of the sun and heat up the insides of the house. The trip to the island had to be cancelled, they thought.
The next day, Nanathiel and Clark went to the rich customer at her elaborate home, and told them that the Sapphire rock was unfitted for housing structure. The female customer told them that she had already ordered a handful of employees to excavigate the rock and that they were only getting paid once the shipment had came back. Nanathiel thought that she needed an explanation. He told Clark to demonstrate the Sapphire's power to her and he did so. Clark made a small fire and put the Stone next to the fire. She saw that the Stone brightened and she placed her hand out to touch it, but Nanathiel stopped her before her ignorance would cost her. She marveled at the power of the stone. The thoughts of the summer house disappeared and she wondered of getting such a rare stone and how the stone could give her such wealth and social power beyond all being. She was rich now, but with the Sapphire and it's extraordinary powers she could be set in life forever. Somehow she had to find out more about this wondrous stone, and the two men where the key. She agreed with the two men and told them to keep the sum of money that she gave them. They thanked her and left. Once they left her abode, she consulted with her assistant and told him to follow them to their home and scout a route to their location. He did so, and followed Nanathiel and Clark undected all the way to their workshop on the outskirts of the small villiage.
The next day at Nanathiel's workshop, Nanathiel got up, and started his routinre morning business. He went outside and saw a bunch of hooligans and his former customer outside. She (Kierelle) told him that she wanted more of the stone and was willing to destroy his house if that was what it took. Nanathiel told her he didn't have any other pieces of the Sapphire. She thought he was lying and commanded her thugs. Her henchmen threw Clark, beaten and bloodied at Nanathiel's feet and Nanathiel helped him up. Kierelle threatened that she would go after his wife and kill both of them if he didn't comply and showed where he acquired more of the Sapphire Stone. Clark thought that she was crazy, but Nanathiel agreed with her. Kierelle, Nanathiel, Clark and her henchmen took a boat to the lost island that Nanathiel found the first time. Kierelle's henchmen extracted and loaded pieces of Sapphire onto the ship, when a distant rumbling could be heard on the island ground. The volcano was active and erupted. It spewed molten lava over the Sapphire Stone causing the Stone to absorb the molten heat. The volcano launched large chunks of Sapphire Stone into the air. Everyone tried to escape on the boat, but the boat was hit by a pieces of heat absorbed Sapphire and destroyed the ship. From the mess and destruction, Clark was the lone survivor drifting on th open sea, but before the boat caught on fire and sinked, Nanathiel gave him his piece of cut Sapphire and told him. "Give this piece to my wife. She lives in an city called Mobotropolis."
The ocean shore washed Clark on a land very close to Mobotropolis. He went to the city and looked for Nathaniel's wife. Clark told Nanathiel's wife of what happened. She cried for the loss of her husband and soon treasured the Sapphire that he left for her. A year later she placed her husband's valuables and the Sapphire in a capsule after planning to leave Mobotropolis. On that fateful day she (and many others) were captured by robots and would never see the capsule or her free will again.
From that day on, after the fall of Mobotropolis, the Sapphire was hidden by the rubble of old house, metal material and assorted junk. Buried within the earth, the Stone waited to be unearthed and see the light of day again; to absorb the light of day again. To become the almighty, yet unknown power that it once was, that the heavens bestowed upon the planet. Is there such a person that can control the raw power of the Sapphire Stone? The Stone waits for that someone in it's cold metallic grave.
