"The Ocean and witch Fury was in, is a use of magic used by the echidna
race for many millennia. But the door, was not crafted by echidnas, for
they do not know the runes, very few do…"
When Fury woke up, he found him self out of the ocean, on dry land. "Where am I?" Fury said to himself, he looked around, he was in a lush green jungle. He looked up, he saw the ocean he fell from, but it was floating, not dripping at all, still, not moving. Then he looked down at the radiant grass; he saw his helmet smashed into pieces. "Could have been from the fall" though Fury, but the he noticed his cape, the metal chain mail on it was bent a part in many places and the material was torn and beaten down, that could not have been done from the fall, by a leaving being.
Suddenly a small orb of red light started hovering around him. "What the…" it waited in front of him patiently, then it lost it's temper and started ramming into Fury's face, not stopping for anything. "HEY!" Fury yelled at it, the grabbed it, all of a sudden it stopped and it started to talk.
"Took you long enough" It said. Fury had heard that voice before. "Knuckles?" asked Fury.
"Yup" it said replying happily. " IM using these red orbs to help communicate with you."
Fury took another look at his surroundings. "Am I in a Jungle?" asked Fury.
"Sort of" replied Knuckles "It's in a world called Haven. The main land is inhabitant of hedgehogs, echidnas. Or, anything of the such. The Mainland is called Echidna Forest."
"Is that where I am?" asked Fury "Echidna Forest?". The orb was still hovering about "No" replied Knuckles, "And far from it to. You're in a place called The Testimony. If you can get of off the island you have proven your self".
Fury stood up. "Ok then, let's get started," he said
"Ok, first off you'll need to know how to glide, jump, while your in the air, push your body forward so you are in the air your gut facing the ground, and always keep your arms straight up or you will fall. Talk to me when you get past that pond". The orb charged towards a body of water then returned. "To activate one of the communication orbs, grab it". The orb disappeared.
Fury grabbed his sword (witch was in one piece strange enough). He sheathed it and ran towards to pond. He jumped the got himself in the position and glided across the pond without any trouble. As he land he grabbed the orb. "PIECE OF CAKE!" Fury yelled. "Good" said Knuckles "Now go up to the top of that hill". Fury looked at a hill with stairs on the all the way to the top. "Seems easy" he said. "You have 2 second to advance to the next stair or you will fall" said Knuckles and then the orbs disappeared again. Fury looked at the stairs they were quite big. Fury ran up and jumped on the next stair, then jumped to the next. As he jumped the stairs collapsed down. Each time he barely made it to the next stair.
Once he reached the top he noticed that Knuckles was not there waiting for him. And the only he could do next, was jump down the cliff. "Where's Knuckles when you need him…" said Fury. But then he had an idea, he grabbed his sword and jumped down the cliff. When he got to close to the bottom, Fury jabbed his sword into the ground and used to flip forward feet first, making a near perfect landing. All of a sudden the read orb appeared again. Fury grabbed it.
"Good job" Said Knuckles, "I'm impressed! Now listen, the rest of the test you must do on your own. I'll be waiting for you at the end of the island".
Fury didn't say anything. "Ok." He finally said. "Good luck" said Knuckles. Fury continued on the island. Most of the things were pretty similar to what he had already done, like having to get to a point within limits of time and such. Finally, he reached the end. There a red orb was waiting for him. Fury grabbed it. "You made it!" said Knuckles. "Of course" said Fury. "Ok, you made it far enough so I'm going to tell you something, this whole time you've been using your mind doing this".
"What do you mean?" asked Fury. "It means your asleep and your using your mind to do the test in the form of a dream. But know you are awake and this is real, you are awake for the final test on this island before you can return, one of two things will happen. 1, you will pass the test and will return, or 2, your soul will be imprisoned in the forest of the lost spirits for all eternity, and suffer for all eternity…"
"Fury listened patiently to Knuckles words. Fury wondered if this was all a dream or if this was for real. And that if he did loose, if he would be trapped, for all eternity…"
