New Beginnings
Before I begin, there is something worth noticing. Within the previous chapter, the Sunset on the Master Emerald part was indeed, not my idea. It was inspired by a great artist named Kitty Hamagochy. I do not mean to advertise, but please check the fan art at this site: www.satokasu_Suki.tripod.com. Wherever you are Kitty, Thank you! In the meantime, enjoy!
Chapter 7
I never thought I would say this but true love can blossom overnight. I was like a dream. Yet it felt so real, I wished that it would happen again, when I heard a knock on the door. Wait, who would knock on MY door? Not Sonic, he would normally just barge in, with Tails not to far behind. I slowly got out of bed, praying to god that Rouge wouldn't wake up. After successfully leaving the room, I headed towards the door, "Come on then Knuckles." I froze, that English accent, "Death Fist?" I say through the door. "Aye Brother." I thought I left him for dead! "Keep it down alright?" "Why, ya got a girl there? I understand." Wait, was Death Fist, being . . . Nice? I opened the door, and there stood my 'Brother'. "You know your voice is annoying." "Yeah and its good to see you too Brother." He said, having his hand out. I took it, and gave him a quick hug with a pat on the back. "I swear I thought you died." "Don't be ridiculous, Knocked out is more like it. And I see your girlfriend is awake." My eyes widened and turned around, face to face with Rouge. Smiling I hugged her. "Proud of it too!" I say, giving her a kiss on the cheek. "So . . ." I hear a familiar, annoying voice call. "When are ya two gonna call it?" I look to find Sonic smirking at us. I hope he didn't mean . . . Marriage? Did he? Oh god he did. What am I going to do, I love this woman yes. Marriage, well when its put that way . . . "Knuckles, are you alright?" I hear Rouge say, I slowly nod. "I think I need to go wonder around for a bit." "Alright, go right ahead, I can't keep you locked up forever." She nodded with a smirk, I think she knows what I am going to do, she IS a treasure hunter after all.
I walked up to the Master Emerald Shrine. "Tikal?" I say softly, in return the Master emerald glows barely. "No need to tell me Knuckles, go ahead." Then returns to its normal glow. I moved to one of the edges of the Master Emerald, and in one swift punch, lopped off a shard no bigger than an inch. "Perfect." I ran towards the bridge, through the cave once more, and to the Train Station. Time to search for a jeweler.
