Knuckles was fast asleep on the bed that the girls had put him on
"Sorry little guy,I have to go tend to the other animals..." Fluttershy said to Knuckles,as if he could respond,she waited for him to say something,but after a while,she left to tend to the other animals.
A few minutes later,she came back to see Knuckles still fast asleep
"You look so peaceful when your asleep..." Fluttershy said to the unconscious echidna
"Cute even..." Fluttershy then thought of something
"Your fast asleep right..." she waited for him to answer
"That means that I could do anything I wanted to you,and you would never know..." she continued,waiting for him to answer. Then she pecked him on the cheek quickly,then looked at his unconscious,unmoving body
"I CAN'T BELIVE I JUST DID THAT!" she screamed up,surprised at herself,the scream was so unexpected,she accidentally fell on Knuckles,who woke up
"Th-the master emerald..." Knuckles said in pain,then he looked up at Fluttershy,who was on top of him
"WHERES THE MASTER EMERALD!" Knuckles yelled,jumping back up,but sitting back down because of the strain that was put on his body "Owww..." he said to himself
Fluttershy cowered in fear,but she noticed that there wasn't much he could do on his own in his current state,so she approached the echidna "Y-you shouldn't put strain on your body,its bad for your health,that is...if you don't mind..." Fluttershy said,shyly. Knuckles let his muscles tense up,putting more strain on his body,and old wounds started opening up
"I gotta go get the master emerald!" Knuckles exclaimed,walking towards the door,but because of his injuries,he only made it five feet away from his little bed
"Please...you can't just...leave..." Fluttershy said,beginning to worry for the red echidna
"But I must collect the master emerald,it is what keeps my island in the sky,it is called the angel island." Knuckles said,still on the floor
"Wow...I never heard of that place..." Fluttershy said,picking Knuckles up by his back fur with her teeth,then putting him back in the small bed. Knuckles tried getting up from the bed,but didn't even make it two feet before falling down.
"Please don't hurt yourself!" Fluttershy exclaimed,surprising the little red echidna
"That is...if you don't mind..." she said,shyly.
Knuckles could sense her concern for him,then he stopped trying to get away. She put him back into the bed,then sat down on her couch. There was a long silence in the room that lasted for about two minutes,but felt like hours to the two
"Fluttershy..." Fluttershy said silently
"Huh?" Knuckles asked,confused at her
"My name is Fluttershy..." she spat out quickly
"Oh...I'm Knuckles..." Knuckles said,looking away from her
"Knuckles huh...so could you tell me something?" Fluttershy asked him,cautiously
"Sure,what is it?" Knuckles asked,calmly
"Could you tell me about that metal monster you were fighting...if its okay with you I mean..." Fluttershy asked,nervously
"That was no monster,that was a robot." Knuckles stated
"A robot,whats that?" Fluttershy asked,getting closer to the injured echidna.
Rainbow Dash was soaring over Ponyville,speeding through the clouds and every other pegasus pony,she thought she was the fastest thing in Ponyville,speeding past everyone like a rainbow colored blur,but while she was close to the ground level,a blue blur passed her,and it was moving fast,super fast!
"Think your faster than me huh?" Rainbow Dash challenged the blue blur,speeding up as fast as she could,then catching up with the blue blur until he became visible.
"Hey,your pretty fast." the speeding blue animal said to Rainbow Dash
"Yeah,I'm the fastest in Equestria,Rainbow Dash!" she gloated,sticking a tongue at the blue blur,who took this as a challenge.
"Wanna bet?" he asked,speeding along,passing the Rainbow colored pony
"Yeah,I'll prove it!" she yelled to him,then she began to speed up,and she moved so fast that she caused a sonicrainboom! She moved too fast for the naked eye to conceive! She thought she had passed the blue blur
"Hah,see,I told you that I was the fastest pony in Equestria!" Rainbow Dash yelled,thinking that she was far away from the blue blur
"Oh yeah,your the fastest pony alright!" the blue blue said,running backwards with out breaking a sweat,in fact,he was still moving faster than Rainbow Dash!
"Wh-who are you?" Rainbow Dash asked,astonished by the blue beast
"I'm Sonic the hedgehog,the fastest thing alive!" he exclaimed,pointing his thumb to himself
"F-fastest thing al-"
"Fastest thing alive,boy,you even talk slow,well,catch you later,my little pony." Sonic sang,turning around and running far past Rainbow Dash,so far that she couldn't see him anymore.
Rainbow Dash stopped immediately,then began stomping her front legs on the ground angrily
"I'M THE FASTEST THING IN EQUESTRIA,I'M THE FASTEST.I'M THE FASTEST!" she yelled at no one imparticular,stomping her legs furiously,then she let out a extremely loud scream that every one with in a twenty five mile radius could hear.
