Chapter 2

Enter Mona

Angel Island, this place was where the Master Emerald was kept. It was supposedly a safe place until…

"Just let it go!" Rouge shouted. "You just don't know when to give up, do you?"

"What are you talking about girl?! That Emerald's mine! You got that?" Knuckles shouted back. "The Master Emerald contains special powers that can neutralize the energy of Chaos Emeralds! That makes it powerful!" He shouted until the bat and the echidna heard a loud yell.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"

Suddenly a girl was seen falling towards them. Her brown hair flew upwards before settling down on her after the brunette crashed onto the ground in a painful thud. They heard her cursing inwardly.

"Who the heck is she?" Knuckles yelled. "Is she helping you steal my Emerald?" Hearing his voice, the girl sat up and scanned the area with her brown eyes before staring at the two mobians.

"Where am I?" She asked. Her voice was filled with confusion.

"Angel Island." Knuckles answered. "I suppose you are after the Master Emerald too?" Mona's eyes widened.

"Master Emerald? Angel Island?" Mona blinked in confusion. "I wonder how hard I was hit with that coconut." She suddenly began to pace around in a circle in a pondering motion.

"What?! This can't be happening! I've got to be dreaming." Mona thought as she paced. Both the bat and echidna stared at her before turning back to each other.

"Well, she's not going to be anything to worry about." Rouge sighed.

"Well why don't you fly off my island Bat Girl?" Knuckles shouted before the two started arguing again. They continued and Mona suddenly looked up after getting a grip to herself.

"Um…guys?" The brunette started.

"QUIET!" They shouted before arguing again. This made the girl silent for a while before she scowled bitterly.

"Oh for crying out loud…JUST LOOK UP!!!" She shouted and the two mobians looked up from their quarrel in time to see Eggman with the Master Emerald in a hovercraft.

"WHA, THIEF!!" Rouge shouted.

"Look who's calling who a thief." Knuckles muttered.

"I came here following the signal from the emeralds, if I am not mistaken, this is the Master Emerald. Is it not?" Eggman asked.

"It's you. Doctor Eggman!" Knuckles gasped.

"So that's Doctor Eggman." Mona and Rouge said at the same time. Rouge noticed this but continued staring at Eggman.

"Well, I guess I can use it for something. I'll just take it with me." Eggman said as his hovercraft began to ascend. "Farewell Knucklehead!"

"Not if I can help it!" Knuckles shouted before jumping up and punching the Master Emerald which suddenly shattered into pieces which scattered to different places.

"WHAT?!" Eggman gasped before muttering. "Fine…I'll have to get back to the base…"

"AARGH!!" Rouge shouted before getting a strangling grip on the echidna. "WHAT WAS THAT ABOUT?! AND LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO MY EMERALD!!" The girl realized this and separated them.

"Hold it! He did that so he could protect the Master Emerald! If it is in pieces he can restore it!" Mona shouted before noticing their puzzled looks. "Uh…oh…this can't be good…"

"How did you know?" Knuckles gawked.

"Uh…I uh…well…long story…" She shrugged sheepishly. "Oh great…like that was going to help."

"I suppose you wouldn't mind helping me find them." Rouge said before suddenly grabbing the girl by the collar of her shirt and dragging her along the ground.

"WHAT!? NO! LET GO OF ME! I WAS FAKING!!!" The girl shouted. "KNUCKLES! FIND THE PIECES QUICK!!!!"

Knuckles shook himself into sanity before running towards Rock Canyon. A few dozen questions buzzed through his mind: How does she know so much about the Master Emerald?! How did she know my name? Is she psychic or something?! I knew I should've stuck the Master Emerald in a locked safe!

As Mona was dragged along, she could concentrate her thoughts on one thing: "HOW DID I GET MYSELF INTO THIS MESS?!"
