Knuckles was currently beating up Qrow, saying, "You are wasting my time. Tell me where the hedgehog is, or die!"
Qrow just scoffed, and hit Knuckles, only for the echidna to not even flinch.
"You are worthless to me," said Knuckles, as he walked off.
He then saw Goodwitch with Sonic and his friends, and Knuckles said, "There he is."
However, he noticed a woman hiding in the tree above him, and about to attack.
So, Knuckles jumped up, and slammed the woman into the ground.
"Who are you? And why are your eyes on the hedgehog?" asked Knuckles.
"I'm here to kill that rat, show that I am not a weakling!" said Raven.
"That is not going to happen," said Knuckles, "He is needed to find the remaining Chaos Emeralds. They will lead us to the Master Emerald, and Robotnik will bring peace to the world."
Raven then scoffed, "You believe that?"
"It was the destiny of my tribe," said Knuckles, "But a rival clan was after it as well. I was ready to battle along my people. But my father said, 'You are not ready for this yet my son. I promise, your time will come.' And that was the last thing he ever said to me."
"My tribe was almost killed itself. Those Echidnas were the reason my father died."
"Wait, you're of the Branwen Tribe?"
"Chieftess," said Raven, receiving a nasty punch to the gut.
"YOU WILL PAY FOR DESTROYING MY PEOPLE!"
Knuckles then slammed his fists down, making the ground crack, and Raven jumping up, and slashing at Knuckles, only for him to dodge.
Raven then launched herself, only for her blade to shatter when Kunckles' fist made contact with it.
Raven was then punched in the gut, and thrown into a building.
Knuckles walked up to her, and Raven growled, launching herself at Knuckles, only for him to block the onslaught from the new blade.
Raven then activated her Maiden Powers, and said, "IF YOU'RE WORKING FOR HER, YOU'LL NEVER GET MY POWERS!"
She then took off in a stream of fire, and rammed right into Knuckles.
When Raven got her vision back, she saw that Knuckles was blocking the attack... WITH ONLY HIS HAND!
"Do I look like I need, YOUR, power?"
Knuckles then slammed his fist into Raven's head, knocking her into the ground, and taking out 90% of her Aura in one hit.
Raven looked to see she had only 3% left.
Knuckles then grabbed her by the throat, and said, "The Branwen Legacy will end, here."
However, a blue blur then hit the echidna, and said, "I would rather you not hurt her. Yang hasn't met her yet."
Raven looked up, and saw that it was Sonic who saved her.
"Don't get me wrong," said Sonic, "I would've let you die, but Yang wants to know why you left."
"So, you are here as well?" asked Knuckles, "I am here to deliver a message."
"Yeah," said Sonic, "You're not getting the emerald."
"Deliver all the remaining Chaos Emeralds, and you will bring them to Robotnik, or your family will be Robotized."
"You're working for Robotnik!?" asked Sonic.
"Yes," said Knuckles, "And, I was asked to give you this."
Sonic was given a letter, and it projected Robotnik, saying, "I know you have a Chaos Emerald. So, I will make this simple: bring me the remaining four, or your family will suffer this faith."
A prisoner was then brought forth, and then shoved into a glass case.
Orbot and Cubot then pressed some buttons, and lightning shocked the poor man, as metal encased him, and then, his eyes turned to red, and moved like a robot.
"If you wish for this not to happen to your family, then you will deliver them to me, in Menagerie."
The projection then shut down, and Knuckles was gone.
"Sonic," said Amy, "What do we do?"
Sonic turned to the group, and said, "We find the emeralds, and we use them against Eggman."
Weiss then stepped up, saying, "I'll help you. Think of it as a way for redemption."
"I'll some too," said Blake.
"Okay," said Sonic, "Let's go, before Ozpin comes and sees what happened."
Soon, the Tornado was up and running, and the team took off into the sky, off to find the Emeralds.
