K.O. – So? So? How'd it go? How'd it go?
Knuckles- Please stop asking that. It was my first day, and SGK still needs to catch on. Give me a break.
K.O.- ...Y'mean you want a KitKat bar?
Knuckles- -slaps forehead- Why do I have to be your favorite guy character! Why can't you be someone else's FanGirl!
K.O.- Because that would break the laws of fangirl-ness. And I think the laws of physics. Besides, would you really want C.K. as the opener of the fic?
Knuckles- What are you saying?
K.O.- Being the authoress has many perks. I have the ability to make it so that you and C.K. open the chapter. You would not do much due to the fact that she will crush every bone in your body in a hug, and if you try to escape she'll become Kagura from Fruits Basket and hunt you down, removing your spleen in the process.
Knuckles- ...Have I ever told you how much I love you being the authoress and opener of the fic?
mangagurl101- Honestly, don't I give you just the best stuff to read that make you feel the need to take a 5 hour shower?
Sonica-Sillya- Is Star just happy because the chaos won't be threatened?
Tsuki Nezumi- Knuckles is just chillin' somewhere else, but he'll be back for this chapter. For now, just consider him lucky he doesn't have to deal with Largo or C.K...yet, anyway.
Twilight-Link- Alastor will come in once Airie and Co. meet the other...-counts fingers- ...five 'you-know-whats' later. And of course you can put in another OC. Just send the info!
Kyo's wife Neko- Please, refer to me as Kawaii Overdose or K.O. here. I don't want people knowing my 'you-know-what', 'cause I'm just so weird like that. And I know you love your Fruits Basket! Oh I know, I know, oh don't I know...
lugia flyhight- Thanks for the support. I have read that story, but haven't got the chance to review yet. But I promise I will!
Shadowkiller27- Hey, somebody needs to be the retard. I have over 7 friends who are and are proud of it. Largo is just oblivious to the fact that he's in a hangover. How he is, I don't know. You can forget about the Krystal thing. Just a joke. And I didn't understand you second review one bit, just so you know.
And before any of you even think about asking, the answer is NO. Lite and Amy absolutely positively CANNOT be a couple. My good friend and the creator of Lite was nice enough to me so I could at least make Lite and Amy friends, so don't make me push my luck, or else he'll make Lite shove tater tots and ham down my throat. And if you ever want this story finished, we wouldn't want that to happen now would we?
RECAP: As Amy helped Lite to his feet, Tails said, "Amy, do you know who said that?" "Airie, obviously." Amy said. "No, it wasn't Airie. She went to sleep awhile ago after yelling at Lite 'I really understand the plot', or something like that."
"Wait, if Airie's in her room, then who would have-?" Before Amy could finish, C.K. walked in the room as if her life was completely perfect. She picked up the DVD case. "I'm sorry! I must have dropped this!" she said cheerfully. She left the room, leaving Amy and Tails to think about what just happened.
In the few moments of the previous day that Lite and Largo had stayed with them, Largo was only considered a danger hazard, C.K. threatened to beat him with a club multiple times, and Airie and Lite were dubbed the only two sane of the four.
So, pretty much everything in Airie's life was back to normal.
Yet, something still bothered Airie as she flew around the city. 'What was up with that blue fox before?' she wondered. They still hadn't figured out its mystery. Airie didn't tell anyone about that yet, and for good reasons. 'Largo would think I'm some kind of zombie and would want to experiment on me, Lite would refuse and go into his 'overprotective mode', and C.K. would still be hyperventilating from the moment I mentioned that I even spoke with Knuckles.'
The whole situation of figuring out the fox's identity seemed very hopeless. The fox wasn't a being of science, so Tails and Chuck wouldn't know anything about it. Sonic wouldn't know since he's pretty much terrified of water. Amy was too concerned with trying to keep up with Sonic. Cream's to young so she wouldn't know anything. And Chris barely even knew what their home planet was like. For a moment, Airie thought Knuckles might know, but then shook her head. He didn't even know Chaos and Tikal existed yet and barely knew anything about past echidnas, so how could he? Airie was just about to give up on it until she remembered one little thing.
Who do we know who's well over 10,000 years old and been in contact with magic ever since he was born? The one person who might have the answers.
Airie made a quick mental note to herself. 'Make that 'chao'.'
She took a look down at the area she was in. She was right by the jeweler's, and just as she saw before, Topaz was sitting in the bench across the street. Airie was also sure that she saw a glimpse of white in the tree behind the bench. Figures. Rouge wouldn't really count on someone with the same wing-span as her to see her hiding in a tree. Just then, the two figures moved over to the shop. Of course, Airie knew what this meant, and she landed to get a better look. Just as she did, Chris's father walked out carrying a small black box and climbed into a limo. She saw Rouge and Topaz grin.
Rouge looked over Airie's way and noticed her. "Hey, you're that girl from before." she said. "Yeah. What of it?" Airie asked. "Well, just so you know, I'm gonna be after that Chaos Emerald you found then, so you might want to keep an eye on it." Rouge said. "I would, if I had it." Airie said in Rouge's tone. "And just so you know, your plan to get that Emerald you saw right now...yeah, it just ain't gonna work." "Plan? What plan? I don't know what your talking about." Rouge said. Airie had to give it to the bat: She was a great actress. But Airie was smarter than that. "Sorry Rouge. Playing innocent won't work. I know you better." She started walking away but before she left she said "And by the way, you might want to hide in better places than trees. I could practically see your wings coming out."
For the first time Airie had even seen, Rouge was left speechless. Seeing her success in ticking her off, Airie flapped her wings and was airborne again.
Airie flew back as fast as she could. She needed to talk to Gaga. (A/N: No, she was gonna go talk to Cheese) Surely he would have the answer she needed. And if Gaga didn't know, she was definitely going to pull her own hair out. She found him in the kitchen, eating an entire jar of peanut butter, and she asked him about Mystery Fox.
And it really looked that she would have to pull her hair out when she talked to him about it.
"C'mon Gaga!" she pleaded. "There must be something! Doesn't the Gate Keeper have some kind of...I don't know,ally who doesn't have a relation to her duties and who can summon magical kitsunes? Please! I'm desperate!" "I'm sorry, Miss Airie." Gaga said as he finished off the PB. "But I don't know. If it does mean anything, I'd need the Book Of The Ancients to look it up, and I really don't want to have to go all the way to the rift between the Demon World and Heaven. They're great enemies, the rift is very far from the Human World and-" He cut himself off when he saw Largo walk into the kitchen and grab a box of Oaty O's Cereal.(A/N: Go on. Guess why.) Gaga gave the best glare his chao face would let him. Airie saw this and used it to her advantage.
"You don't like Largo, do you?" she said slyly. "He made Lady Chihiro frustrated. I don't like it when somebody makes Lady Chihiro frustrated." Gaga pouted. "Well then, how about we make a deal?" Airie said. "You get the Book Of The Ancients thing for me, and I'll stick some virus pain straight up Largo's processor, if you know what I mean. Are we clear?" She held out a finger. Gaga looked at it and smiled evilly. "Crystal clear." he said shaking her finger.
Conveniently after Airie and Gaga worked out their scheme, Chuck called Chris downstairs. His father called and wanted him, Sonic, and all of the others to meet him at the city where Lindesy was filming her new movie. Amy and C.K. were ecstatic. Amy was because that was where the stars lived, and C.K. was because she remembered Knuckles was going to come. Did Airie perchance talk to C.K. about how Knuckles might want to not be crushed in a hug given by someone with the strength of a steam roller?
Hell no. Airie's evil side wanted to see this.
Gaga flew over to the door. "Well, you all enjoy yourselves. I'm off to the Demon World!" He was almost out, but C.K. grabbed him. "Just what do you need to go to the Demon World for?" she asked. "Umm...uhh." he stammered. He looked to Airie for backup. She was giving signals to make something up. "You know...to do...Steward stuff...?" he said. Airie smacked her forehead. But to her surprise, C.K. let him go. "I guess everyone's entitled to their secrets." She shurgged and patted him on the head. "You go have fun now!" Airie nodded at Gaga who said "Oh yes Lady Chihiro! I will!" And with that he flew out the door.
After that, everyone started to get ready to leave. Airie went to her room and grabbed her laptop. "What do you need that for?" C.K. asked her when she came out of her room. Airie took a quick look at Largo in his room, trying to make a computer out of the cereal box, spare robot parts, gum, and a bird feeder. "Oh, just to keep a promise..." Airie said.
Down to the point where they met Nelson at the studio, the reaction between the Chaos Emerald he had and the one Sonic had was seen not only by them, but by Knuckles, too. His red emerald glowed brighter than ever before as he walked near the edge of the woods. In the distance he could see Station Square. He stared at it, then at the Emerald, then jumped down the edge and ran towards the city.
Back at the mansion, Largo had completed his 'computer'. It really worked too. Airie and the others had to give him that much.
But, only that much.
Being the total L337 person that he is, he went on to one of those world-wide online player things.(A/N: Think RuneScape) He typed in his screen name, 'Z0MB135.R.R34L', and began to check his mail from fellow L337 ones. He was just about to kill an undead munchkin, when he received a challenge letter.
"Hmm...from '.x.Angelic.Twilight.x.'." Largo said reading his letter."Why does that name sound so familiar? ...No matter!" He grabbed a controller he hooked into the computer instead of a mouse. "Time for someone to get pwnd!"
He waited five minutes for his opponent to arrive. In the meantime, he 'polished' his 'shuriken'. In the cyber world, he was a ninja. Which he thought was awesome. Finally his opponent came, but they weren't what Largo expected.
"Ahh, I have been waiting for..." NinjaLargo said as he turned around. But for a split second he lost the ability to talk, or in this case type. "...j00?"
In front of him was a female ninja, wearing a skin-tight purple outfit and a gas mask, and carrying a huge boomerang on her back. She pulled it out in front of her and said, "Alright, let's get this over with. I'm on the clock here!"
Largo shook off his stunned state. "Female or not, you are still going down!" he said.
Nelson had just closed the box containing the violet Emerald. He looked around, scratching his head, wondering what that light was. Sonic and the others seemed to have figured it out, and followed him as he left for the stage. Everyone except for Airie and C.K. that is. Airie was pressing keys on her laptop frantically, and C.K. was twitching happily. They eventually did leave, both thinking the same thing for different reasons.
'Largo...you are mine!' Airie yelled in her head as she fought Largo.
'Knuckles...you are mine!' C.K. yelled in her head as she felt his arrival drawing nearer and nearer.
Somewhere inside the city, Knuckles sneezed and a chill went up his spine. 'Someone must be talking about me...' he thought with a bad feeling inside.
"Grr...no! Ah ha! Powerlink!"
I'll give you ten cookies if can guess who this is.
"HA! SOON .x.ANGELIC.TWILIGHT.x., YOU SHALL FEEL THE COMPLETE OWNAGE OF L337 M4ST3R L4RGO!"
Is you guessed Largo, the cookies are chocolate chip.
But to be more precise, this Largo was the computer ninja version, and was unknowingly fighting Airie, a high-level female ninja assasin.When she joined this online game even I have no clue.
The 'assassin' fought gracefully, dodging everyone of Largo's attacks. She fought back with some deadly moves her own, depleting Largo's life points. When he was at fifty, Airie pressed a key combination and her laptop. "Heh, let's see him reprogram this!"
Back to Largo, he was trying to type in a code to increase his life points, when his modem started to fry. "Wha..? NO!" he yelled as the modem started to smoke. He grabbed a spare cereal box and some duct tape, and the modem was fixed in no time. He looked back at the screen with a grim look on his face. "So...someone wants to pl4y ruff..." he said.
But before he could do anything, NinjaLargo was killed. While he was fixing the modem, Airie had knocked the ninja stuffing out of him. He didn't even seem to notice until Airie typed in, "You are aware that you lost, right?" Largo didn't say anything to that. He just collapsed.
Airie must have guessed what happened, because Largo didn't respond with his usual "DI3!" phrase. Feeling her victory, she closed her laptop, and looked around for C.K. who had disappeared before. When she found C.K. her appearance had gone from kowai to kawaii. She was acting all cute, pretending to sweep the set with her broom for the fun of it. Airie even thought she heard her sing to herself 'Knuckles-Chan, Knuckles-Chan, All for me, Knuckles-Chan!'. She saw this right away as an attempt to get Knuckles' attention.
Unfortunately for C.K., her efforts were put to waste. Knuckles did come to the set...but he came on the other side where Sonic was. C.K. was so happy she didn't even noticed she screwed up her own plan! Airie slowly walked over to them, not wanting to make a sound to give away Knuckles' location.
"Sonic, what's going on?" Knuckles asked. "Nothing yet." Sonic said. "We did find a Chaos Emerald, but I think we should wait a little longer before we take it." "Why?" Knuckles asked. "Because then we'd ruin a very 'thoughtful' idea for a anniversary." Airie said as she walked over. "What are you doing here?" Knuckles said at her arrival. Airie got a weird look in her eye. "I live with them." she said pointing to Sonic. "And one might assume that if they go somewhere, I would go along with them." "Jeeze, Knuckles. You're missing the obvious today." Sonic said sarcastically. Right when Sonic said 'Knuckles', C.K. turned her head around so fast a very loud crack was heard from her neck. Airie saw this and her eyes widened.
"Knuckles." she said. "Run. Now."
C.K. mounted her broom...
"What? Why?" Knuckles asked.
She kicked her feet off the ground...
"No time to explain. Just go!" As Airie pushed him out of the way, shesaw Lite coming through a door with Tails and Amy. "Lite! Hold her!" Airie yelled. Lite saw C.K. and Knuckles, and guessing what happened, ran over an grabbed the back of C.K.'s broom. She didn't notice. She just kept a crazed and wicked smile on her face as she kept her eyes on 'the prize'. At this point, Airie had grabbed Knuckles' hand and dragged him behind some background scenery. "Just WHAT was that about!" Knuckles yelled. Airie kept a look out. Lite was losing his grip on C.K.'s broom, but was still able to hold her back. "Trust me. For your own safety, you won't move a muscle." "What do you mean 'for my own safety'!" "Do you really want your small intestines pouring out your mouth?" "Pfft, yeah right." Knuckles said. "Look, I don't know what's gotten into you, but I can take care of myself. I'm leaving." He started to walk away into the open. "Knuckles NO!" Airie yelled. At that moment, Lite lost his grip on C.K., who came charging straight towards Knuckles from all the speed she built up. He didn't even have time to move, she had picked him up and had him in a hug. C.K. was squealing. Knuckles was gagging. Airie and Sonic watched in slight amusement.
What happened next was pretty much what happened in any 'Amy-Chases-Sonic' moment, only this time 'Amy' had knocked 'Sonic' unconscious. Actually, Knuckles was feigning sleep to get this crazy girl off of him. C.K. thought she really did knock him out and set him on the ground. "Well that didn't go well for a good first impression..." she muttered to herself. "Maybe next time you shouldn't try to kill him." Airie said."I wasn't trying too..." C.K. said. "I know, I know. But when he wakes up, try being a little calmer. Control your inner fangirlie-ness." Airie winked at Knuckles who 'woke up'. "What hit me?" he asked pretending to rub his head. C.K. kneeled beside him. "Knuckles-Sama...I mean, Knuckles-San..." she said twiddling her thumbs. "Gomen nasaii." C.K. bowed her head in apology. Knuckles looked to Airie on what to do next. She pretended not to notice. Sighing, Knuckles roughly patted C.K. on the head. "Relax, I'm ok now. You don't need to be sorry." he said. C.K. sat there,completely still for a few seconds, before shooting up, clutching her head and crying "I'M HAVING THE TOP OF MY HEAD SURGICALLY REMOVED AND THEN BOX-FRAMED!" And with that she flew away.
Airie helped Knuckles up. "What was that all about?" he asked. "Just one of your many loyal fangirls." Airie said with a smile. "A little more crazed than most, but still a good friend."
After Airie and Lite convinced C.K. not to hire professional surgeons to remove the top of her head, things seemed to go back to normal. The keyword here is seemed. That doesn't mean things will stay that way.
First off, Chris's teacher Stuart showed up. Airie knew he was undercover, but played along. She didn't want Stuart to get in trouble with his supervisor, or whoever his boss was.
Secondly, C.K. made no more attempts to smother Knuckles again. C.K. plus Not Doing Something Knuckles-related equals C.K. must be taken to the happy hotel by the men in the white coats immediately.
Last, was when Nelson came out in his costume. The first time Airie saw the episode, she screamed bloody murder when she saw it. Every time after, she needed to be blindfolded. This time though, Airie wasn't scared. She'd seen scarier things in Lite's closet.
Everything went smoothly until Nelson tripped, which caused the box to open, which caused the reaction between the Chaos Emeralds, which caused blowouts all over the set. C.K. screamed and hid behind Knuckles, while Amy and Cream hid behind Tails and Lite. "Nelson! What are you doing!" Airie yelled. "Put the Emerald back in the box now!" Sonic added. "Allow me." Tanaka said stepping forward. (A/N: Yes, Tanaka was there too for those who don't remember) He simply picked up the box and shut it, not paying any heed to the shocked faces of Nelson and Lindsey. He had grown used to everything that had happened so far, so this wasn't any different. "Can we get it now?" Knuckles asked in a bored tone. "Wouldn't make that much of a difference if we did." Airie said. "What?" "He'll be here in about 3...2...1."
Right on que, Eggman showed up. He blasted through the roof, followed by on of his robots.(A/N: I can't really explain it. If you want I'll send you the screen shot)"Heh, wondered when you were gonna show up!" Sonic said. "Sonic, Eggman HAS to show up. Otherwise there's not much of a plot now is there?" C.K. said sarcastically. Sonic murmured something inaudible, but said nothing else. "What's wrong? Too scared to insult a girl?" C.K. smirked. "Shut up!" Sonic yelled.
Soon a fight broke out. C.K. started to give out all of Sonic's flaws, to which he couldn't make better insults. Knuckles enjoyed the Sonic-bashing. Eggman saw this as the perfect moment to take the Chaos Emerald. They were all so busy fighting they didn't even notice that he picked it up, but it was only to be snatched out of his hands by Rouge who flew out the hole in the roof. The only one who did notice was Airie, who's anger vein had grown larger with each insult. "GUYS! STOP FIGHTING!" Airie yelled. Everyone stopped. "In case you haven't noticed, the thing we're all after is gone!" They all looked down at the empty box left behind.
"Oops..." C.K. said blushing in embarrassment.
Airie looked to the sky, as if asking herself 'Why me?'. She saw a little black dot up on the horizon. At first glance, Airie didn't think much of if, but after studying it a bit longer she saw that something didn't seem right about it. It was too close to be a plane, but too far to a bird. And it was heading up, not across.Airie's eyes widened in glee at the realization of their second chance. "Knuckles!" she said. "How far do you think you can boost me up?" Airie pointed to the dot. Knuckles grinned and answered. "Only one way to find out."
While Sonic and C.K. watched in confusion, he put his hands out in front of him, to which Airie placed one foot on. She held on to one of his shoulders for support as she narrowed her wings in a bit. She kept her eyes on the small dot, which was slowly getting farther away.
"Ready?" Knuckles asked ready to launch.
"Ready." Airie said.
Knuckles put all his strength in his arms. He thrusted Airie straight up like a bullet. Soon, she too was just a dot in the sky.
Rouge smiled at her prize as she flew away from the set. 'Taking this Emerald was way too easy!' she thought. 'I'll have to thank that echidna girl one day. She was a great distraction!' She was so certain that victory was hers, she didn't hear the small whooshing noise till it was too late. When she moved her had up to gaze at the jewel, it was gone.
"What! But how!" A whistle gave Rouge her answer. There Airie was, tossing the Emerald up and down triumphantly. "You...! Give me that Emerald now!" Rouge growled. Airie put up a finger, placed it beneath her eye, and pulled it down, along with sticking out her tongue. Once she made her point, she dove back down to earth, leaving behind a very pissed Rouge.
Once Airie flew through the hole back into the set, she was greeted by Lite and Amy.(A/N: Who will NEVER be a couple in case you didn't read my mini-rant!) "Airie! You gotta help 'em!" Lite said. "Sonic, Knuckles, and C.K. can't hold off that robot much longer!" Amy said. Airie already knew where they were. "Alright. Lite, I'm gonna need your help on this. Amy, you just make sure no one else is in the building, then get out of here yourself." They both nodded yes, and Airie and Lite ran off to help the others.
By this point, they robot had moved them to the room with the weird aquarium. "Y'know I still don't know why they have that thing in a movie set. Those aren't even real fish." Lite said. "Haven't you ever wondered how they did those scenes in Jaws?" Airie smirked. They found everyone in the aquarium maze just in time to see Knuckles and C.K. be flung by its tail. Knuckles landed on his feet and caught C.K. in his arms. In reaction to this, C.K. blushed, squealed, and fainted.
"Please tell me she's not always like this." Knuckles said setting her down.
"If only I could."Airie said
Lite gulped. He didn't want to be flung around like that. "M-Ma bye I should stay with C.K., j-just to make sure she doesn't get hurt?" he stammered hopefully.
"Yeah. C.K. won't be of much help without Gaga, anyway." Airie said. She and Knuckles started to run back to the fight, but Airie yelled one last thing to Lite.
"Don't let me down, Scaredy McChicken-Ton!"
"HEY!"
As they got closer to the fight, they saw the robot had pinned Sonic down. Now, in case you don't remember, the whole aquarium is shaped somewhat like a U. Sonic and the robot were on the caved in side of the U. After explaining this to Knuckles, Airie called over to Sonic to jump over the tank. Not wanting to get pummeled, Sonic obeyed. Knuckles punched the glass as Airie instructed, but something went wrong.
The glass wouldn't break.
"Wha...Why isn't it working!" Airie cried. "Its too thick. I can't break it myself. Punch it with me!" Knuckles said. They both raised their fists back, and struck in unison. Not even a scratch. Now they were mad. "Lite! Get over here!We need you!" Airie yelled to her brother. He ran over taking his gun out of its holster. While Airie and Knuckles punched, Lite tried to shoot. The glass still didn't break, but instead made a vibration that caused Sonic, who was trying to balance himself on the edge of the tank, to fall in. They all watched helplessly as he sank in. Lite tried shooting some more and Knuckles kept punching, but nothing worked. Airie stepped back in horror.
'No...' she thought. 'This was supposed to work, but...why? Have we really lost?'
An unfamiliar voice entered her mind. It sounded strong and firm, yet young and soothing, like the waves of the ocean.'No, you haven't. But we will if we don't act quickly.'
Airie thought she might have finally snapped. 'What?Who are you? How are you in my mind? What do you mean 'we'? I don't...'
'I will explain all in good time. Right now, we have to save your friend.'
'But how! The only way we could didn't work, and we can't get in any other way!'
'You have me, and the water before you is our way in.
'I don't know who or where you are, but come out so you can help us!'
'You're the one who has to do that. I can come out, but only through you.'
'Through...me?'
'Yes. Its the only way. Let me through, and I can help you.'
'How can I trust you? How do I know you won't try to destroy us?
'Ask yourself this: Do you have any other choice?'
Airie looked at Sonic's floating form sinking faster and faster. '...No.'
'I promise I won't hurt you. Now let me through...'
"Just remember...you promised..." Airie whispered loudly. Knuckles and Lite turned around with confused faces. Airie had closed her eyes and unclenched her hands. She felt a cool wave of energy flow through her body. The same blue aura from the Lady Ninja battle had come back, but this time Airie was ready for it. This time she would know how she did it. She would finally get her answers. Hopefully.
Her eyes opened in a flash, pupils dilated. Her two chakrams, which had changed into the double-blade, was held tight in her hands. And behind her, still as blue and mysterious as ever, stood Water Tails. Only this time, he seemed...happy? Before, he had no emotion, a blank face. Now it looked like he was going to burst out in laughter. Airie began to walk, turning into a jog, then into a charge. Knuckles, already with the experience, realized what was going to happen and grabbed Lite, still stunned by his sister's transformation, by the tail and away from the tank. Airie held out the sword's end and drove it into the glass. Every part of it cracked and glass was flown everywhere, but it never touched Airie or Water Tails.
Water was spewn everywhere. Sonic fell to his knees and gasped for air. Airie didn't move and neither did the fox. Knuckles and Lite ran to Sonic. "Sonic! Are you alright?" Lite asked. Knuckles and Sonic looked at him weirdly. "Sorry. Standard question." Lite said quickly."I think I'm fine, but what about Airie!" Sonic said. "Its that fox from before. I'm sure Airie told you about it." Knuckles explained. "When he showed up, Airie could control the water in the area." "And just how does he do that?" Lite asked. "If either of us knew don't you think we would have told you by now?" Knuckles said. C.K. had woken up by this time and had come running over to them, and she did not seem happy. "OK, I know you guys are just making sure Sonic's not hurt, wondering why Airie's glowing, and all that, but uh...WHAT ABOUT THE GIANT ROBOT!" In everything that had happened, the boys forgot completely about the robot that they were trying to beat and that ironically it was coming closer to them.
"Aww, smoof..." Lite said.
"Wait...where'd all the water go?" Sonic asked. All the water that had been spilled was gone, leaving the floor as dry as a desert. They saw a few trickles being sucked over to where Airie stood. Or rather,where Airie used to stand. She was now slightly floating, hands on the opposite arm's shoulder, water creating a bubble around her. The fox had become a mass of pure energy that had started to fly around the bubble, making sure not a drop was wasted. They were sure they heard her whisper 'Aqua Edge'.Once all of it was around Airie, she released her hands.The bubble burst and the water, which was literally flying, transformed into long, thin blades. Each cut through the robot's hard metal skin like it was paper, and soon it was no more. Strangely enough, nothing was wet, even though water flew to nearly every corner of the room. Just the pieces of the robot that fell to the ground, and nothing more
Airie's feet clicked as they lightly tapped the floor. The blue aura was gone, her chakrams returned to normal, and her pupils became their original shape again. Our little blue fox friend, however, did not go away like before. Airie didn't notice. She took a deep breath, then let her body fall to the ground, where she would encounter a deep and dreamless sleep. Water Tails bent down and put his arms under her legs and back, while the others ran over to aid their fallen friend.
"Alright. Just who or what are you!" Knuckles yelled. "What did you do to my sister!" Lite yelled just as loud. Water Tails had lifted Airie up as he spoke. "Don't worry. Casting Aqua Edge just took a lot out of her. She'll be fine once she wakes up. For now, just let her rest." "But...who are you and how did Airie do that?" C.K. asked. "That is a long story. It would be for the best for me to explain later. Besides, I know Miss Airie want some answers from me, too." Water Tails made his way over to the door.
"We should go. The others are waiting." He said without looking back.
Eggman looked the Emerald over. Amidst all the confusion, he grabbed it when it fell out of Airie's pocket. But that girl still troubled him. He saw her command that water and use it to destroy his robot.'That girl's power is immense.' he thought. 'With strength like that, it would be no problem to conquer this planet!' An evil grin spread across his face. "Perhaps an persuasion of changing sides is in order..." he said to himself.
GASPED! I did it! Its finally done! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! Thank you sooo much guys! you've all been so patient while I tried to finish this and balance everything else, what with the homework, the writer's block, and the science project I'll be lucky to at least get a C on! YOU GUYS ROCK! -cries and hugs- Now, to relive every significant moment of this chapter, its Shirt Guy Knuckles!
Shirt Guy Knuckles Episode 2: Knuckles-Chan No Ribbon?
Knuckles- Due to K.O. having severe comedic writer's block, not much is happening for this SGK. K.O. is taking a small break due to stress from too much homework.
-to K.O.-
K.O.- -in a corner- I can't go back, not there...Algebra and English...they'll tie me to the stake, and then History and Gym...they'll burn the hay beneath my feet...and I don't even want to think about what Spanish and Science will do to me...
-back-
Knuckles- Sonic still has his problems, but is still doing his best to be in this fic. Or at least keep his liver.
-to Sonic-
Sonic- -being chased by random Sonic haters- HELP MEEE!
Random Sonic Hater #5- Hey, let's make him wear a dress! THEN kill him!
Random Sonic Hater #823- I'll get Amy's! I wanna see him in a panty shot!
Random Sonic Hater #1407- Oh! Oh! Make him wear a thong! Make him wear a thong!
Sonic- PLEASE HAVE MERCY!
-back-
Knuckles- And that, somehow brings us to Shadow. Even though he's not in the fic yet, he's still...just being Shadow.
-to Shadow-
Shadow- ...Which, of course, means that I am the new lord of FanFiction! All must bow before...what the! -sparkles appear on Shadow- Wh...What's happening to me! -gags and chokes- Genki kimi ga suki, ima ha todku de miteru yo!
-back-
Knuckles- Man, did that have any humor to it? Sorry folks. I just read what K.O. gives me. Sue her if its not funny! ...However if it is funny, please send $5,000 in cash to...to me! Yeah, that'll work out niiiiiicely, a-MMMMFFFF!
K.O.- Sorry 'bout that folks. Knuckles tends to get carried away when it comes to money. Good thing we have duct tape.
