Tenshi's Beginning
by Burnside

"Who am I... " Whispered through the night, from the white furred cat, His
wings draped over his shoulder. He was
easily noticed as a half breed, Cat-Bat, with those colorful feathers that
draped around him.
"You are my student.. Of course.." The tall echidna whispered back, his
arms crossed over his shoulders. He flowed
gently in the air, smoke drifted from the robe and dark helmet.
"I want you to help those Locke's son.." Spectre whispered, resting his
hand on his hips as he drifted in the air
slowly, turning away from his student, who did the same.
"The boys name is Knuckles, I doubt he truly needs help, but the more the
merrier.." with that note, Spectre
vanished, transporting the Bat-Cat to the Mystic Ruins, He fluttered up and
landed on top of the black emerald..
staring down at it.
"Hey YOU! Off that!" A voiced called out from down the bridge, he stood,
glancing down at the fox, tilting his
head to notice the two tails, feeling something grip his legs, he glanced
down at the chameleon.
"Great.. Look, I'm just look for Knuckles! Now tell you transport lizard to
let go!" Tenshi screamed out, calling to
the two tailed girl, he quickly made his way up to him, crossing her arms.
"What do YOU want with K?!" She screamed, Tenshi was getting tired with
the clammy feel of the Chameleon's
hand on his legs. He gripped his own wrist.. charging that swirl of darkness
as he was about to fire, that Red, well
known Echidna appeared to place a hand on his wrist.
"Calm down. Father told me that Spectre sent someone.." Knuckles said,
nudging the chameleon with his foot, who
let go we a snort and crawled back to his watch. The two tail foxed lifted
into the air, and vanished off to the
workshop not far off.
"I'm a hit with the locals.." Tenshi whispered, holding his hand out to
knuckles who gripped it firmly, almost
breaking it with a tight grip.
"You know who I am.. Your Tenshi Yofun, right..?" Knuckles grinned as
Tenshi grit his teeth and tried to pry
knuckles hands off.
"Gawd! what are you made of, Steel?! H-hai I'm Tenshi.. L-let go!" Tenshi
cried out as knuckles finally let go,
patting Tenshi on the back which only caused the boy to fall on his face.
"All muscle.." Knuckles whispered, lifting him up. "Now I can't let you
into the group so easily. You'll have to
past a test" He wrapped his hands around his mouth to call out. "YO!
MIGHTY!!"
It didn't take long for the Mighty to make his way up to the black emerald,
grinning as he gripped the bottom of it
and lifted it up to prove his strength, and drop it.. making Knuckles and
Tenshi fall to the ground. Tenshi only
greeted Mighty with a "^_^;..."
"I.. have to fight him..?" Tenshi turned to Knuckles who only nodded, stand
and crossing his arms.
"Yea.. Go on!" He pushed Tenshi toward mighty, gulping, Tenshi stepped
back and lifted his right knee, which had
a wooden, stylish brace on it. His left leg hopping gently as he appeared in
his fighting stance.
Mighty reeled his fist back and swung hard toward the boy, who ducked and
twisted to the side, hitting Mighty to the
side, which didn't phase him at all. He was greeted back with a grip on his
arm and a toss into the Black Emerald.
Tenshi grit his teeth, lifting up to grip his wrist, his arm shaking
slightly, he was still not use to channeling power as
Spectre taught him, causing the beam to miss Mighty totally..
"O.o;...eer.. That wasn't a good shot" Mighty snickered.
"Oh.. Stop laughing!" Tenshi screamed, lifting into the air and diving
downward to scratch, his arms were pushed
away by mighty, who gripped Tenshi in a Bear hug. Tenshi's eyes widening as
he beat his hands against Mighty's
arms, which only made Mighty squeeze harder.
"You Give?!" Might growled out, eyes narrowing at the boy in his grasp.
"Tch.. Your F-funny.." Tenshi grinned, his grin turning into a gasp as the
grip tightened, feeling like his spine was
going to burst!
"That's enough Mighty..! Test is over!" Knuckles grinned, placing a hand
on Mighty's shoulder who let the boy fall
to the ground. He dizzily looked up.
"Tenshi, I suppose.. you can hang around, just.. don't go braggin' your in
the Chaotix.." Knuckles kneeled and
whispered into the boys ears after lifting him up.
THE END.. OF THE BEGINNING..
