Eggman's Alliance
Chapter 4:
Knuckles woke up from his sleep, the last thing he remembered was his visit at his mother's house,
"Where am I?" was all he could say, and he looked up, face to face with Eggman!
"Aha! If I can't catch that spiny hedgehog, I might as well catch his spiny echidna friend! And my handsome reward will give me enough power to expand Robotropolis and destroy Knothole!" Knuckles barely knew what was going on, but the fact that Dr. Eggman was selling Knuckles made him ponder,
"Egg-Eggman…who are….handsome reward…ungh…" the fat man laughed,
"Why, you don't know how much your poor Great Great Great Great Great whatnot Uncle would like to see you!"
"Dimitri!"
"You catch on fast! Now, when was the last time you saw him? Oh yes, when you saved his poor life."
"I regret it."
"He played ally with you for a while, until you were weak enough. Poor Knuckles! First you fall dupe to me, then you fall dupe to Dimitri. You must soon learn that you can not trust anyone! Ha ha ha!"
"Then how do you know that he's going to pay you?" Eggman grinned,
"Then my Egg Fleet will make quick dust out of his Legion!"
"At least Kragok is gone for good. I think I could beat my mechanical relative in a battle."
"Kragok? Now where have I heard that name? He was murdered a while ago. But my data isn't able to comprehend the murderer…"
"It was Tobor. A guardian who joined the dark side. They both died."
"Hm…I know nothing about this Tobor. Anyways, you won't be here for long, in three hours, Dimitri will be here soon to 'pick you up'."
