Hey guys, I'm back. Sorry for taking so long but I've been busy. And I discovered the Sonic Boom series and I have to say, I approve. I'm really excited to write Kara into that series, both the games and the TV show. If anyone wants Kara's backstory for any game, just let me know. This is mostly for her counterparts in Secret Rings, Black Knight, Sonic X and Sonic Boom. Okay, so we're now at Sonic and Knuckles, the Sonic part to be exact. Once I get passed this game, the real action starts and Kara's role will increase to a slightly bigger role. Okay, thanks to Sprl3gitfanfic4cookidonli for reviewing along with all 242 readers. Man, that's a big difference compared to last time! Thanks so much! Okay, so this is going to be the whole Sonic part of the game, then we'll get to Knuckles and I'll reveal Kara's biggest asset, which will be a part of how she got to Angel Island in the first place. And I'm not sure if I've said this already but Kara is related to another Sonic character. If you can guess who, then you'll get a free spoiler of your choosing! Okay, I think that's everything so please enjoy!


Kara groaned as she woke up only to find Knuckles above her.

"Knuckles..." She whispered weakly.

"You okay, Snowflake?" He asked, worried.

"I'm fine, the tremors just knocked me off my feet and I hit my head." Kara explained. Knuckles touched the back of her head gently and noticed her wince in pain. "I'm fine, Knuckles, really." She insisted when she saw the look in the echidna's eyes. He was growing more and more worried about her.

"You better stay in here." Knuckles stated.

"Knuckles! You can't keep babying me my whole life!" Kara cried as she sat up. "I'm not 5 anymore and I can handle myself!"

"I know, but someone has to guard the Master Emerald while I'm out." Knuckles said. Kara sighed as she stood up, crossed her arms and walked away from her adopted brother.

"You always say that and I get it, the Master Emerald can neutralize the Chaos Emeralds and keeps Angel Island floating, but come on, Knuckles! I can protect myself just as well as you can yet you still insist I stay here and protect the Master Emerald!" Kara cried, "Sometimes it feels like...like you don't trust me."

"I do trust you!" Knuckles cried.

"Then why won't you let me out of here?!" Kara shouted as she whipped around and faced the echidna. Her icy blue eyes were filled with anger. "You always say that you trust me yet you never let me do anything but sit around and guard the Master Emerald or occasionally take a patrol! Just because I'm amnesic doesn't mean I'm weak, Knuckles! If you just let me out, I could-"

"I won't let you get yourself killed!" Knuckles finally snapped. Hearing that, Kara shut up. "When I found you, you looked like you were in so much pain." Knuckles admitted as he looked down, his fists clenched tightly. "I promised myself that day that I wouldn't let you ever feel that kind of pain ever again. I've been protecting you so you could always be safe, so you wouldn't be faced with death. I get that I've been overprotecting you, but I can't lose you, Kara. You're the only person I have in this world, I won't lose you, no matter what." Kara's eyes filled with tears as she ran forward and hugged the echidna tightly.

"I'm so sorry, I should've listened to you." She whispered.

"No, it's my fault. I should've given you more freedom." He whispered back, "I do trust you, Snowflake, but I refuse to lose you. That's why I won't let you out yet. But, someday, we'll go out together and you'll remember your past." Kara smiled against Knuckles' chest and whispered,

"I don't need my memories, as long as I have you." Unknown to the two, a blue hedgehog and a yellow fox had heard and seen the whole thing.


Kara sighed as she paced in front of the Master Emerald shrine. Knuckles was out setting traps for Sonic and Tails, despite her protests that he'd stop. They had come to an agreement that until the intruders were gone, Kara was to stay a good distance away. She was still very young, after all. But she knew Knuckles trusted her, after all, he'd never leave the Master Emerald to just anyone. Kara, however, got bored without Knuckles around very easily. For some reason, she hated, with a burning passion, being alone. It scared her, not seeing anyone or being able to talk to anyone. Sometimes she even wondered how Knuckles did it for six years, before she arrived. Unconsciously, the white hedgehog's hand moved to the back of her neck where a long scar rested. She had woken up on Angel Island with a huge wound on her neck, yet she didn't notice it at all. It was Knuckles who pointed it out, mostly because her quills had started to turn slightly red from the blood. As soon as her hand came in contact with the scar, Kara was overwhelmed with what she could only assume to be her last memory of her past. It sucked her in and refused to let her go.


Fire...that was all she could feel, all she could know and all she could smell. She could see the endless flames, threatening to destroy everything in their path that they hadn't already destroyed. They wrapped around her body and she couldn't escape. That scared her more than anything else in the world in that single moment. She then felt it, the claw of the monster controlling the flames as it cut the back of her neck, deeply...painfully. She let out an ear splitting shriek, one that could only be described as true and utter terror. She felt all strength, all power, leave her in that instant and she was falling. She was going to die, she knew that, yet not even that could scare her even more than the flames could. She'd rather die than face those flames ever again. Suddenly, a voice spoke. It was a boy's, one she had heard before but she couldn't figure out whose voice it was. The voice shouted only two words that sealed her fate.

"Chaos Control!" The next thing she knew...was light.


Kara gasped as she came back to reality. That flashback was the only clue to her past. She had been hoping when she met Knuckles that he had been the one to shout those words. But he never said those words and his voice wasn't even close to the voice of the one who saved her. That was the only thing she knew, the voice she heard, the boy, saved her life. Somehow, he got her to Angel Island, had saved her from the flames. And whenever she thought about him...her heart felt warm, as if that boy had been a friend to her, a very close friend. She shook her head, trying to dispel the flames from her mind. Fire was her biggest fear because of that flashback...she never wanted to remember that moment ever again.


What felt like hours later, Sonic, Tails and Knuckles ran towards the Master Emerald shrine only to find an unconscious Kara laying on the ground and Eggman stealing the Master Emerald.

"Kara!" Knuckles cried, running towards the white hedgehog.

"Master...Emerald..." Kara whispered. Knowing what she meant, Knuckles reluctantly tried to get the gem back only to be electrocuted. Eggman ended up escaping. Quickly, the heroes gathered around the barely conscious Kara as Tails checked her vitals.

"She's okay, she'll wake up in a second." He reported and, sure enough, Kara's eyes opened as soon as the fox finished speaking.

"You okay, Snowflake?" Knuckles asked.

"As good as I can be." Kara groaned, "Egghead knocked me out when I tried to protect the Master Emerald. I was too weak to fight him."

"That doesn't matter. You're safe now." Knuckles whispered. Sonic stood up and looked at Tails.

"Buddy, we'd better go after Eggman." He said.

"But how?" Tails asked.

"We can show you." Knuckles offered.

"You can?" The hedgehog and fox asked in unison, shocked.

"Yeah. You're gonna help us get the Master Emerald back, right?" Knuckles asked.

"Sure, why would we need to carry something like that around with us, anyway?" Sonic agreed.

"Thanks...guys." Kara managed as she stood up, slightly supported by Knuckles. "I'm coming too and none of you are stopping me." She added once she was standing up straight. Knuckles was the most reluctant to agree, but soon the four were off.


The quartet made their way to a hidden Warp Point, with little trouble. They even managed to collect a few rings along the way! As they made their way towards the Warp Point, Knuckles explained how it would lead them to the Sky Sanctuary Zone, where Eggman was going to launch the Death Egg. Once they reached the Warp Point, Knuckles led the way in with Kara and Sonic not far behind and Tails picking up the rear. Once through, the four's eyes were wide as they watched Eggman launch the Death Egg back into the sky. Knuckles suddenly leaned against Kara, who was still weak from Eggman's attack.

"You guys go on ahead, meet us back at the shrine with the Master Emerald." Kara instructed seriously.

"Got it." Sonic nodded.

"See you later!" Tails waved before the two followed the villian. Kara waved her hand and the duo were teleported back to the Master Emerald shrine.


What seemed like an eternity later, Sonic and Tails returned to the shrine with the Master Emerald. Knuckles and Kara, stronger than when the four had gone seperate ways, smiled, Kara's being biggger than Knuckles', and happily accepted the gem, restoring Angel Island to its floating state.

"Thank you guys so much!" Kara grinned like a little kid on their birthday.

"No problem!" Sonic winked at the girl.

"So...can we be considered friends now?" The only girl asked innocently, tilting her head to the right.

"I think so, what about you, Sonic?" Tails asked.

"I'm up for that." Sonic grinned.

"Knuckles?" Kara asked hopefully, her eyes sparkling with her innocence. Knuckles looked at his adopted sister and then the two heroes before he smirked,

"Alright." Kara jumped slightly in joy before she hugged Knuckles tightly. Soon after, it was time for Sonic and Tails to go. They climbed into their plane, the Tornado Tails called it, and left, waving back at their new friends. The echidna and the white hedgehog waved back as the blue hedgehog and the fox flew away.


There's the chapter! I hope you guys enjoyed it. And yes, Kara is supposed to be a slightly childish character for now. Once her memories return, she will act more mature. Of course, she'll also act mature for one game because of something that happened in another game, but that's only because she'll be mourning. Please review to let me know what you think and a happy Thanksgiving to all the Americans reading this story. If you aren't American, then happy holidays! Later!
