The Story Begins

(Years ago, the throne of the kingdom of Iolchos was overtaken by Kragok and the "Dark Legion." The unthroned king sent away his son, Knuckles, only a baby at the time, to be taught under the care of Chiron the Centaur, where he would be safe. Years later, when he was now 16, Knuckles left Chiron's place to go back to Iolchos, determined to take back the kingdom)

Knuckles (walking through the woods): Da dum.. Da dum.. and together we'll stand strong no matter how.. da da.. da da da (comes up to a huge river, raging in gushing torrents) Oh, great. How do I get across this thing? Maybe if I find high ground I glide across?

???: You traveling this way?

(an old echidna lady walks up beside him wrapped in cloaks, looking across the river)

Knuckles: Well, yeah, I just need to get across this river.

Old Lady: As am I. Could you be a kind gentleman and carry me across?

Knuckles: Whoa.. Hey, I'd love to help and all that, but I'm not really sure about how I'm gonna get across, much less the two of us...

Old lady: Very well. If you will not bother to help an old lady get across a river, then I will find my own way across. (starts looking for a shallow point to cross the river at)

Knuckles: (Oh great, way to make a guy feel guilty..) Wait! Wait.. um.. yeah.. *sigh* I'll carry you across on my back.

Old Lady: Oh thank you so very much!

Knuckles: *sigh* Here goes nothin'... (starts to carry her across the raging river; he loses his balance and starts to fall a couple of times, but keeps on going; in the middle of the river, he loses his sandle in a rock) Aw, dang it!

Old Lady: Is something wrong?

Knuckles: Nothing, I just lost one of my golden-stringed sandals that my dad gave me, but I can't get it back now.

Old Lady: *chuckles* Oh, believe me, losing that sandal was the best thing that has happened to you so far. Now I know that you are the one.

Knuckles: "The one"? The one to do what?

Old Lady: Oh, you'll see.

Knuckles: *sigh*

(When they got across the river...)

More coming soon!
