Meet the Twin

"So who is this, Lunar, guy again?" Lamorak asked as he trailed behind the group. Nate sighed as he slowed down to walk side by side next to the green hawk.

"For the last time, he's my twin brother, just not as cool or truly good-looking as me." The human said as he brushed back part of his brown hair from in front of his eyes and smirked. "He also loves his bow staff." The green hawk nodded his head as he stared at the human with a weird look. Leaning to his left side, he whispered into Galahad's ear.

"If I ever ask anything about his family, slap me until I regain my senses."

"Why don't you ask Starkage to do that? He'll be happy to help you out with that situation." the white hedgehog said with a chuckle as he walked away from the wide-eyed hawk. "Nate, do you know where your brother is at the moment?" Galahad asked as he looked at the said person who shook his head in response.

"I have no clue where." Nate replied, leaving a surprised expression on the hedgehog and hawk.

"Then are you saying we're lost." Lamorak said in disbelief.

"I said I didn't know, but Nightmare does. That's why he's leading and I'm not, duh." Nate said with a scoff, walking away from the duo, "Sheesh and people say I'm special."

Crack!

Nightmare stopped as his ears perked up at the noise, his hand making a sign for the others to stop and be silent. The black hedgehog ears rotated to their capability as their owner surveyed the area, slit eyes keeping watch for even the slightest of movement.

"Uh, why did we stop?" a green dragon shouted to Nightmare, interrupting the current silence. The black hedgehog whipped himself around to glare at the dragon for the unwanted disturbance. His red, reptilian eyes filled with irritation and disbelief at the dragon.

"If you are smart, you'll stay quiet. Why don't you use your earth power to see if there is anyone nearby?" Nightmare suggested as he started to walk again, his ears still on alert. Starkage opened his mouth to say something, but closed it due to not having any good comments to say to the black hedgehog.

"I do not think that is necessary." a voice echoed around the group. The slight sound of swords scratching leather was overheard as each knight yanked out their sword as they located the source of the voice. Leaning up against one of the many oak trees was a human that looked just like Nate. Unlike Nate, however, he had a tan hair instead of brown. He wore a blue t-shirt along with blue jeans, brown leather gloves, and black Nikes with silver stripes on the sides. His teal blue eyes seemed more focus than Nate's as he summoned a wooden staff out of thin air. A smirk was on his face as he looked at the group's expression, "What, can't a guy go on a walk without having some people looking for me."

"When did you joke, Lunar?" was Nate's response as the group sheathed their swords.

"When I was forced to work with the echidna." the human replied as he pointed his bow staff at Gawain. The red echidna growled at the remark.

"Working with him was the worst choice of my life." Gawain said as he crossed his arms, his violet eyes shone in arrogance in slight anger at the human. Galahad snickered slightly at the red echidna's reply.

"Worse than when you challenged Lancelot to be King Arthur's best knight." the white hedgehog said as Gawain rubbed his head at the memory resurfacing.

"I remember that. You got beat in less than a minute." Lamorak replied, his green feathers ruffling under the armor as he laughed. A feral snarl escaped the echidna's barred lips, white teeth glistening slightly from the sunlight.

"Shut up. You barely lasted a second with him during a sparring match." That shut the hawk right up as they were snarling at each other, violet eyes met with blue eyes in a fierce glaring match.

"Ok, ok, we don't need to have a fight." Sonic said as he got between Gawain and Lamorak, who at the moment looked like they were seconds away at pulling out their swords and starting a duel.

"Humph." Both of them grunted out as they crossed their arms, but made no other move or indication to fight.

"So, why were you looking for me?" Lunar asked, the bow staff disappearing from sight.

"It's a long story." the lavender cat replied as she and Sonic explained to the human of the Black Knight's return.

~ Unknown location ~

"Sire," the dark voice of an Underworld Knight said, its voice echoing throughout the stone chamber as it rushed inside the room. Vines hung in clutches among the cracked walls in the barely lit room. The setting sun's light barely seeping through the transparent glass of the window due to a being blocking the way, "you summoned me." The knight bowed, its sword barely touching the red rug that led up to the figure.

"Yes, I have." King Arthur said as he turned to face the knight, allowing the light to invade the room even more. The light reflected of the black metal surface of his armor, making it bounce around the room each time he moved, "I was wondering on the progress of the young fox."

"He still fails to give in." the knight said, still in the bowing position as if waiting to be told otherwise. The king let out an exasperated sigh as he turned back to the window, viewing the moss that covered most of the building outside, along with lichens and other assortment of vegetation.

"I thought he would not listen to reason." He said, slightly chuckling at the end of his sentence, "Now we have a little fun with him. Tell the guards to initiate plan B." The knight nodded as it straightened itself up and approached the door, "Also have my spies pick up any new intel about the current position of the pest and his knights?"

"Yes, they have last been sighted heading toward the Outlands, to be more specific, the old molten mine."

"Send two groups out to the Outlands. One group will intercept their course. I want them to head to the abandon city of Cauldron. The other will prepare a little surprise for when they arrive."

"Yes, sire." the Underworld knight replied before exiting the room to complete its orders.

Me: There you have it folks, another chapter done.

Lamorak: (sniffs the air) Something smells good in here.

Me: (growls) What do you want now?

Lamorak: I thought it was obvious. I want that food. (tears a leg off of the meal)

Me: I don't think you…

Lamorak: (takes bite out of the leg) This is good. What is it?

Me: Hawk food

Lamorak: (eyes widen before rushing to a trash can to spit the food out) Why didn't you warn me. I can't believe I ate someone from my own kind.

Me: Let's not forget you're part cat, so it's possibly normal for you. Percival eats it all the time.

Lamorak: (gulps)

Percival: (walks in) Hey, I was sent to check on you two to see if you're not fighting

Lamorak: (walks out)

Percival: What's wrong with him?

Me: (shrugs) Seems like he doesn't like chicken.
