It was a rocky canyon, all spires and crevasses. The yellowish stone glowed in the morning light, as the spires stood proud like an endless forest of stone. Behind him, the sounds of the jungle were prevalent, but in front, thee was naught but the whistling of wind through the canyon, the roar of the river far below, and the occasional scurrying of a lizard across the rocks. It was the canyon that Chaos Yellow resided in… an almost impossible stroke of fortune for the Echidna. "This is it…" Kun'nuk'kles said, as he stared.
"This is what?"
"The place where Chaos Yellow is hiding. It's in this canyon, somewhere…"
"So, what are you waiting for? Let's go find it."
Kun'nuk'kles looked at the canyon. It was very deep, and would be practically impossible to climb up the walls without exhausting himself almost immediately. So… magic it was, then. He raised his staff, and chanted, "Ak'kun leoht! To'ku'ri geolokk tralsimi! Air path! To Chaos Yellow!"
The staff's crystal pulsed with light, and something in the air ahead stopped. Kun'nuk'kles tapped it with the staff. It was like rock. He took a step out, and it supported his weight. "Come on…" he muttered, moving on.
Footsteps behind his told him that Sonya was following. After about a half hour, the path led to the opposite edge of the canyon, where a plateau made a barren plain. As soon as Kun'nuk'kles and Sonya stepped off, the path disappeared, becoming like air again. In the center of the plateau, a hulking figure was waiting. "Wait here," Kun'nuk'kles told her, and walked to the figure.
"You're late…" it growled in a gravelly voice as Kun'nuk'kles approached.
It was something… it had two arms and two legs, but it looked as if it were made out of a number of stones, all separate from each other, but held together with yellow light. "You should have been here a day and a half ago," it continued.
"I was unconscious. I suffered from multiple hits to the head when I fell down the side of the volcano in my hurry to get away from the deadly gasses."
It looked at him with eyes that glowed yellow. "That is no excuse for tardiness. You are here to Bind me, I know… and so, we will fight. I am Chaos Yellow, and I am Skill!"
