Chapter 6
Knuckles wakes up and looks around. He was in his room and laying beside him was Gabbriella. He smiled at her and kisses her on the forehead. She slowly wakes up and smiles at him. "Good morning." She said softly.
"Good morning." He said back. At that very moment Tails came on the intercom in everyone's rooms.
"Everyone! We have a problem!" Tails sounded scared and troubled. "Everyone come to the main power room immediately! The Chaos Emeralds are gone!" Knuckles gasped and the two looked at each other.
"You don't think...the Master Emerald is..." Gabbriella said. Knuckles eyes widened.
"Oh no." Knuckles said.
--in the main power room--
Knuckles and Gabbriella ran into the room. Everybody else was there and the Master Emerald was still there, but Tails was right, the Chaos Emeralds were gone! "What happened?" Sonic asked turning to Knuckles.
"How would I know?" Knuckles asked him.
"Well, you always sleep in here, don't cha? You usually sleep in here to guard the Master Emerald." Sonic answered.
"Oh...well...I wasn't in here...last night. I was...in my room...last night..." Knuckles said glancing over at Gabbriella. Sonic and Chris looked at each other, shrugged and turned back to where the Chaos Emeralds once were.
"Where could they've gone?" Tails asked.
"Do you think Dr. Eggman took them?" Amy asked looking at Sonic.
"I don't think he took them. Eggman would rather do it the hard way than the easy way."
"True."
"What are we gonna do?" Chris asked. Sonic remembered something. He reached in his back pocket, he had one of the Chaos Emeralds.
"Well...I still have this one...maybe if we hurry, we can use it to track the rest of them down." Sonic said.
"Come on! We can take the X-Tornado!" Tails said. Everyone followed him out except for Knuckles and Gabbriella.
"Gabbriella, I want you to stay here." Knuckles told her grabbing her shoulders.
"What? Why?" Gabbriella asked startled.
"This could be dangerous and I don't want you getting hurt."
"Ok." Gabbriella looked a little dissappointed. Knuckles grabbed her chin and kissed her. He turned and started running after everybody. "...Knuckles!" Knuckles turned. "Be careful." Knuckles remembered the last time she said that to him and wondered if she was thinking that he wouldn't come back like last time.
"Don't worry...I'll come back. Count on it." Knuckles smiled, winked to her and turned to run out of the room.
"Bye." Gabbriella watched run out and then ran to the window on the other side of the room. She got there just in time to see the X-Tornado fly off. Gabbriella smiled evily and laughed. She pressed a button on her watch and Dr. Eggman came on the screen.
"Yes, what is it?"
"They have left the ship and I'm here alone with the Master Emerald."
"You have the Chaos Emeralds?"
"Yes, they don't suspect a thing."
"Splendid. We'll be there in a jiffy. Get the Master Emerald and we'll be ready to go."
"Right." She pressed the button again and Dr. Eggman dissappeared. She turned and walked slowly up to the Master Emerald. She lifted her arms and both her and the Master Emerald began to glow. Just then the Master Emerald began to fly up. Gabbriella was picking it up! Just then the power to the Blue Typhoon went out.
--a few minutes later in the bridge of Dr. Eggman's ship--
Dr. Eggman, Bocoe and Docoe sat in the bridge. Gabbriella walked in. "There she is! My little star from the heavens! The Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald are here with you?"
"Yes." Gabbriella said smiling.
"Good work! You are going to be a good addition to my little team."
"Thank you, doctor."
"Hmm mmm." Eggman said as he patted her on the head.
'How can you see into my eyes like open doors,
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb,
Without a soul
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life
Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead
All of this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life
(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life'
--about an hour later on the X-Tornado--
The X-Tornado flew around the Blue Typhoon. "Hey, the power's off." Amy noticed.
"But, that's impossible! The power is generated by the Master Emerald. Besides, Gabbriella is guarding it." Tails told her.
"But the power is off." Chris said.
"But...if the power is off..."
"And the Master Emerald is powering it..." Amy added
"And if Gabbriella is guarding it..." Chris added.
"Then that means..." Sonic added a little more and looked at Knuckles.
"Oh no." Knuckles said. "Tails get us on the Blue Typhoon, NOW!"
"Yes sir." Tails said. The X-Tornado blasted toward the Blue Typhoon.
--a few minutes later in the main power room--
Knuckles ran into the room. "Gabbriella! Gabbriella!" Knuckles didn't see her. "No...not again..." Knuckles clenched his fists and fell to his knees. "She's gone...they're gone...they're both...gone..." Knuckles fell to his hands so he was on all fours (well his hands and his knees actually).
'Sound the bugle now, play it just for me,
As the seasons change remember how, I used to be,
Now I can't go on,
I can't even start,
I've got nothing left, just an empty heart,'
Knuckles began to cry. He tried to fight them back...but he couldn't. "No."
'I'm a soldier,
Wounded so I must give up the fight,
There's nothing more, for me,
Lead me away,
Or leave me lying here,
Sound the bugle now, tell them I don't care,
There's not a road I know, that leads to anywhere,
Without a light, I,
Fear that I will stumble in the dark,
Lay right down, decide,
Not to go on,
Sound the bugle now'
Sonic ran into the room. "Knuckles, it was Eggman! His ship was the last one here!"
"I've gotta get her back! I won't lose her again!" Knuckles gnashed his teeth, hit the floor, stood up, turned and walked out of the room with an angry look on his face. "Eggman will pay!"
