The echidna's rebirth
Ok im back again people oh and about my other stories I will be putting them back up eventually, I don't own sonic or anything except the plot of this story enjoy
Thunder clapped across the sky as rain fell from the heavens. After the whole ark incident, you would expect everyone to appreciate life more when the world was just about to end less then 2 months ago. But one man still hated his life. One warrior, whose clan line he knew was eradicated. That man's name was Knuckles. All his life he spent on the paradise he had called home until he fought with sonic after being tricked by Dr. eggman for the first time. We find the forlorn warrior sitting next to the master emerald ever vigilant as always.
"well everything is back to the way it was before… Sonic is praised as the hero Tails gets some credit and I go home without so much as a whisper" Sighing knuckles rests his head against the emerald watching the rain fall. "damn them all… damn this heart of mine…. Damn sonic! Damn rouge!" standing up in his rage he reaches into the ground and pulls out a boulder and throws it "damn Shadow, egg man,……. Amy……." Falling onto his knee's he clenches his fist "every time I show concern or compassion someone uses it against me" trembling in his memory he goes back to the moment he met amy.
It was 5 years before the chaos incident when knuckles had met Amy rose. It was a sunny day when sonic the hedgehog invited knuckles to his home "come on red I am introducing you to the greatest invention ever, CHILI DOGS!" sonic said licking his lips hungrily. Tails hopping up and down with a wide smile on his face "yeah you can help me fix up my plane like you did the red cyclone" (A.N: those of you who don't know the red cyclone is a jeep knuckles has, don't know how where or when he got it only know he has it) Knuckles on the other hand didn't mind giving tails a hand but was a little reluctant to eat a dog that has chili "er… thank you sonic for inviting me here but are you certain the emerald will be ok?" sonic fumbled for his keys and laughed "what are you talking about knux you have the thing strapped to your back" knuckles walking in looks at the large emerald tied to him "still…." Stopping he holds his hand out in front of tails and motions for sonic to hold still "someone's here" Moving slowly everyone begins checking the house, tails ended up getting his head stuck under a sofa cushion. Knuckles had gone to a door and had put on the shovel claws "GOTCHA!" he yelled as he sliced the door clean in half and was ready to give the person a hand shake with the claw. Sonic shook his hands and screamed "WOAH KNUX WAIT THAT'S A FRIEND?" Knuckles stopped his claw just short of impaling a pink hedgehog in the neck. Amy screamed in fear and stood there shaking before realizing the echidna taking a step back and going onto his knees. "Please, forgive me miss" he said as he bowed his head to the ground in sincere apology
That was before she had betrayed him. Years later she feigned affections towards him; he had truly thought she loved him. But she had used him to get closer to sonic. He had heard that it had failed and sonic had figured her plan out. When she went to the island seeking comfort all she received was the rage of the guardian and a forced escort back to the mainland. During the beginning of the whole ark incident knuckles had fallen in love again, this time with rouge the bat. Shaking his head he didn't even want to remember that turning around he goes into a light sleep that even the slightest thing could wake him up. An hour later he wakes up hearing what sounds like a roar of engines jumping up he gets ready to fight but sees a ship landing. As the ship door opened 5 beings walked out of the blinding light from the ship……
It has been several days later all of knuckles friends where getting worried. Amy who had given up on sonic had went up to the island wanting to as knuckles to go out with her, rouge had a similar idea but neither one of them availed for the red furred echidna was no where to be found. Sonic and tails had gone up just for a visit and to challenge knux in a race through the mushroom zone on the island but they did not see him either. On the news the red haired reporter had begun her news "this just in, the dead man gang's leader Joshua "the head dead" Macowski and the gang itself where found dead this morning in the train station of station square. Every corpse was either mutilated or skinned and hanged from the ceiling, the only difference between the deaths was Joshua was beheaded completely, and a strange symbol carved into the corpses of those who where still intact" the camera shows a corpse with a crude and quickly done picture of something that resembled an echidna's head in the corpses chest "there appears to be one witness who seems to have seen what had happened. Her words as she trembled in fear was roughly translated "the demon came for them, the end is near, the demon came to claim his trophy" more news on this as it develops" sonic and tails had stopped in the middle of the road seeing the news in a tv window Looking at eachother sonic was the first to speak "you don't think that…" with rouge herself saw this and was stunned thinking the same exact thing as sonic and tails, amy had noticed the news cast again and went immediately to sonic's home to confirm what had happened. As they all started towards his home rouge thought in flight please don't let it be him. Amy had run almost in tears "knuckles…. Please whatever your doing be careful…"
