The triplets' battle against King Arthur was…less than pleasant.
Maurice was badly injured since he fought his hardest against the darkness of the king so Ogilvie had to heal him before he could bleed to death. Sonic, on the other hand, was too focused on arguing with his sword than actually battling.
"This could go on forever. You sure you are a scared sword?" he gave a groan of complain.
"It is you sir, who lacks the proper fighting skills." Caliburn shot back.
Even King Arthur thought that the scene was pathetic. "Ha! A fool of a knight. Not even worth slaying."
"You see," Caliburn huffed with a slight chuckle. "he thinks so too."
"Well it's your fault." Sonic rolled his eyes. "You're a sad excuse for a teacher."
"Seriously?!" Ogilvie face-palmed at the two. "Just fight!"
As the bickering continued, King Arthur simply turned and flew away on his horse. Maurice was able to see this and growled at the two making a scene. He got up and stomped towards them, grabbing his younger brother by the ear and taking the sword's hilt.
"You, stop being an arrogant piece of shit!" he yelled, pinching Sonic's ear closer before letting go, which caused the emerald-eyed azure hedgehog to whimper in pain.
The lime-eyed azure hedgehog stifled his laughter as his jade-eyed brother turned and glared at the so-called sacred sword.
"And you, STOP BEING SUCH AN ANNOYANCE!" he gripped tight to the hilt before smashing the blade against the ground. "YOU KNOW WHAT?! FOR A FUCKING SWORD, YOU SURE HAVE A LOT OF WORDS TO LET OUT!"
"Okay, okay," Ogilvie grabbed his older brother and pulled him away from the sword. "Calm down, Ric. I think you're scaring Merlina,"
Indeed, Merlina was frightened as she held onto her staff with wide eyes that stared down at the azure triplet hedgehogs.
Sonic held and rubbed his aching ear as he stood up. He struggled to walk over to Caliburn to pull him out from where his brother stabbed him in.
"You okay?" he asked.
"No, I am not!" Caliburn wasn't pleased. "My blade would have been more blunt than it already is!"
"For as long as he bears that scabbard, we may never be able to defeat King Arthur." Merlina sighed.
"So," Ogilvie questioned. "what are we gonna do?"
"You must ask the scabbard's former owner how to hinder its power." Caliburn told them.
"And who would that be?" Maurice folded his arms.
"Nimue, the Lady of the Lake. The one I mentioned earlier." the female wizard replied.
"What are we waiting for? Let's go pay her a little visit." Sonic gave a grin and turned to leave.
Caliburn shook his whole sword body. "I fear it will not be as simple as that."
"Whadya mean?" Ogilvie asked, scratching his head.
"You all shall see for yourselves with your own eyes." the sword answered. "Onward my young knave."
"Stop calling me knave!" the azure speedster growled. "I'm Sonic the Hedgehog."
"Very well then, I shall call you Knave the Hedgehog."
"Whatever you over-sized letter opener."
Maurice and Ogilvie exchanged smirks and glances as they both followed behind with Merlina behind them.
