I'm trying my best tofix this fanfic so it makes more sense. If it doesn't, someone please tell me.


RECAP: She looked up to the voice of the guy who she fell on. Red dreadlocks, spiked hands, white mark on his chest, and a pair of large violet eyes staring right at her.

Airie Keys was meeting Knuckles The Echidna, face to face.


"Are you ok?"

Airie needed some time to come back to Earth after what just happened. Was any of this real? If it was could she get back home? If she did would she need therapy?

"I asked if you were alright." Airie then remembered that she fell on Knuckles, who was now becoming annoyed that she was not answering his question. "Um..Yeah…?" Knuckles didn't seem satisfied with her answer. But then he got a better look of her. Both of her hands had the same spikes that were on his hands. Her ears were pointed, like Sonic's. And there was also the wings on her back. She was probably the weirdest thing he ever saw right now.

"Just who and what are you?" he asked. Airie was about to answer his question, when she remembered that he was the last echidna. If Airie told him that she was half echidna, it might cause Sonic X to go into disorder. Not that her presence didn't do that already. And she couldn't tell him that she was from another world and that there hewasn't real. He'd just think she was insane.

'Well, if this is allreal I might be more insane than I thought.' She thought.

"I-I'm sorry. I have to go right now!" Airie grabbed her backpack and ran as fast as she could into a nearby forest. In the distance she could hear Knuckles yell after her, "Hey, come back!" but she didn't listen. She just kept running.

The forest became more dense along the way and soon Knuckles lost sight of her. He kept going until he reached a dead end. Giving up, he began to walk out. He figured with all the weird things happening, he could've just imagined that girl was even there at all.

Airie, hiding behind a boulder, sighed in relief. Normally, she would have been happily freaked out that she met Knuckles. But not like this. It was all wrong. She didn't even know what episode of Sonic X was next. Airie racked through her Sonic X memories.

'Let's see…Last week was the one where Sonic found two Chaos Emeralds. Which meant the one this week was where Sonic hung out with Helen. Which meant the next one would be where they found a Chaos Emerald underwater. And that means that the next one is where-'

Airie got a hold of herself before she kept rambling in her head. She didn't have time for this. She unzipped her backpack and took out the tent she brought with her, silently glad that her gut-feelings were usually right. Once she set up her little camp, she went out in the forest looking for food and water. As she was walking, her body was getting weaker and she was feeling down right feverish. It didn't stop her.


Knuckles' POV-

Knuckles walked inside the forest where it was less dense. He was hoping that he could find that girl from before, but was having no such luck. It was almost like she disappeared without a trace. Knuckles was getting mad at himself.

'How is it that an experienced treasure hunter like me can't even find one person!' he thought. 'For all I know she could have never even existed.'

"Something wrong, spikes?"

Knuckles looked up into a tree to see a blue hedgehog with emerald eyes looking at him.

"Sonic, what do you want?" Knuckles asked threateningly. "What? Can't a guy just ask what's up?" Sonic said in his casual voice. "You looked weird, so I just wanted to know if something was on your mind." "…There was a girl." "A girl?" "Yeah. She just came out of nowhere. I asked who she was but she ran away." Sonic smiled and sang teasingly; "Knuckles got a girlfriend! Knuckles got a girlfriend! Knuckles got a-"

He was cut off because Knuckles stomped on his foot.

"OW! What was that for!" Sonic yelled. "Its nothing you didn't deserve." Knuckles replied victoriously.

Sonic grumbled something and turned his attention the forest path below. "Hey Knuckles, is that her?"

Sure enough, the weird girl with wings was walking down the path, carrying about five apples in her arms. She didn't seem as energetic as when Knuckles first 'met' her. Her eyelids were halfway closed. She was nearly dragging her feet that looked that they would give in very soon. Her arms seemed like they would go limp at any second. Every so often she would man softly.

"It looks she's gonna be sick." Sonic said. "Well what are we waiting for? Let's go help her!" "Wait." Knuckles said. "When I asked her who she was, she seemed really freaked out to see me. Let's just see where she's heading first." Sonic gave up. Knuckles did have a point. "Alright." He said finally. "So, what's the plan?"


Airie's POV-

'I made it back alright.' She thought wearily. Her whole body felt weak as she entered her tent. Propped up against her backpack was a picture of her deceased mother. "I know Mom. Its late." She said to the picture. "I'm just going to find a river where I can get some water. Maybe that will help with my weakness." Airie didn't know if she was sick or not, but eating and drinking always helped her feel better. She let out a small sigh and unzipped the tent's 'door'…

…meeting two pairs of odd-looking sneakers.

She looked up. Sonic and Knuckles were staring down at her. She stared at them for about a minute when Sonic broke the awkward silence in the only way he saw appropriate.

He cracked up.

"BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!"

"Shut up Sonic."


Hmm…I hope I didn't make Sonic and Knuckles too OOC. I also hope that my POV's don't suck as much I think they do.But I guess that's just what happens when you write a fanfic!
