K.O. – I'd like to announce now that once my OCs are in I'd be glad to take the ones of others. I can't guarantee that I can put them in, but if I'm able fit them in the story line, you might just see yours here.

Sonic- Why would you want OCs? I think they're pretty stupid.

K.O. & Random OCs- DIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE!

Sonic- -little girlie scream-

K.O. – Oh , before I go on my Sonic-hurting rampage, I'm sorry to say that this will no longer be a 2-part chappie, but a 3-part! GOMEN GOMEN GOMEN! I can't squish things together that well!


RECAP: "Man this is COOL!" she yelled with glee. Flying was an amazing feeling, like there was nothing below or above, just her and the clouds.

Unfortunately, the feeling ended soon when Airie realized the most important part of flying.

"Uh…how do I land?" she asked no one.


'Greaaat. Just great. I'm stuck up in the sky, have no idea how to get back to Station Square, and I don't know how to land!'

Airie was not happy with her current predicament.

I bet a lot of you are going "No duh Sherlock." at me right now.

In that case, "Sorry Watson."

'Think Airie, think!' she repeated in her mind. 'How does Rouge land again? She always folds her wings a little, then aims her feet at the ground.' Airie shrugged. 'Meh, Rouge got me this far.' So Airie did what Rouge did.

Of course, it worked.

'5 points for me.' Airie thought.

She screwed that last thought though. Her wings gave out, and she did some sort of aerial dive. Looked something like a disfigured flamingo.

'WHY ALWAYS ME?' she screamed in her head.

Thankfully, she landed on something soft, yet not without a loud thud. She took a minute to take in her surroundings. Gray buildings, a canal, street merchants…

"Sweet! I'm in that city!" she squealed with glee. "Now all I have to do is find Knuckles! But, where do I find him?"

"Maybe you should try looking beneath you." said an all too familiar voice. Airie looked down. The soft thing she landed on was red.

"Just what kind of grudge do you have against my back?" Knuckles said.


Airie explained that she was only trying to thank Knuckles for finding her things for her, yet he only replied with grunts and saying that now he had to take care of her and find Hawk. (A/N 10,000 points to the people who guessed correctly in the last chappie!).

When she tried to tell him he was falling into a trap, he only said this:

"Look, girl; I don't buy your 'I'm-from-an-alternate-reality-and-you're-a-T.V.-show' act one little bit. As far as I can tell, Chuck's machine was either on the fritz or you're just insane. And I have to protect you know because I know you can't fight."

Airie was having a hard time believing what she was hearing. She was shocked, confused, slightly nauseas, and PISSED AS HELL.

But mostly pissed.

You're all doing the Sherlock thing again. Don't deny it.

Yet, Airie didn't show it. But she needed a comeback. And a good one. Could she say she knew how to fight? She had watched anime that had fighting in it, but she could never copy the moves perfectly. Except for one though. But would Knuckles buy it? 'May as well do it.' she thought. "I'll have you know I've mastered the art of…Champloo!" Knuckles gave her an odd look. "And just what is 'Champloo'?" he said. "It's a style of bushido. You need a weapon for it, preferably a sword." Knuckles took a moment to think about this. Airie had hope in his gullibility. Or at least she tried to.

"…Fine. Just c'mon." he said at last. Airie's smile couldn't get bigger. And inside her head, she praised Mugen from Samurai Champloo for making that style, and promised that she would do her best to understand the story line. She snapped out of her trance and went after Knuckles.


They reached the bar where Hawk was held captive. While Airie followed Knuckles, she pondered is it was alright for animal minors to enter. That and if she made the right choice. Yet again someone stopped her thoughts when one of the drunkies smirked said, "Hey, who let the animals in?" Knuckles got mad, what else would he do? "What did you say to me?" he glowered. Airie stopped him. "Knuckles, he's not worth it. Let's just do our job and find Hawk." He thought about it, but gave in. When the started walking again the drunkie said, "That's right! Listen to your girlfriend!"

This time Airie snapped. But you couldn't tell from the way she looked.

She calmly walked back over to the table, proud and with a broad smile on her face, not saying a word. "What do you want?" the drunkie said. She let out a small chuckle, raised her fist, and slammed it into the table, and it broke in half!

The drunkie let out a frightened scream, and he and some others ran out yelling, "SHE'S A MANIAC!" and "RUN FOR THE HILLS!". Knuckles walked up to her. He had no idea a girl could ever punch that hard and make really tough men scream and run. "Didn't that hurt your wrist?" he said still in shock. Airie smiled. "Nah! I've slammed my fists into computers my friend made of roof tiles and chewing gum, and through a foot stool at Sonic's head! I've grown used to it by this point."

"Hey, you mind not scaring away my customers?"

The turned to the bartender. Airie recognized him as the one who kidnapped Hawk. "I heard you say you were looking for Hawk. I know where he is. I can take you to him, if you like." Before Knuckles could say 'yes' Airie grabbed him and said, "Could you excuse us for a minute?" She pulled him over in a corner.

'What are you doing!' Knuckles whispered. 'Saving you the trouble of falling down a pit into a jail cell!' Airie whispered back. 'Look, I don't know and don't care what you're trying to pull but it won't work!' Airie stopped. She knew he'd have to find out for himself before he believed her. 'Fine. Just one more thing.'

Before Knuckles could ask, Airie walked over to the bartender's table, where two 'men' wearing overcoats sat. They didn't hear her coming. She grabbed their coats and tore them off, revealing two very shocked Bocoe and Docoe!

They 'ummed' and uhhed' nervously. Airie just said, "Better luck next time, fellas!" And with that they ran out.

So she turned her head to a once again shocked Knuckles. "So, shall we go?" she said.


Sonic- -as a human lantern- SOMEONE HELP MEEEE!

Random OCs- NOT A CHANCE!

K.O. – Sorry for making this a three part. My own ending words make the chappie four pages, where as my normal page limit is 3. So once again, GOMEN!
