The New Hero of Mobius (Matttheman89/StarMech)

"Now where do you think you're going?" Relic exclaimed as she suddenly held on to Knuckle's wrist. "You can't be bloody serious. We're still in the middle of the Ocean. You'd drown before even reach the shore!!"

The blue pika pinched the bridge of her nose in frustration. "Ugh, always rushing things without thinking..." This followed a sigh and then smile, "However, we do have an alternative. Follow me!"

With that she took Knuckles into another room of the research lab. It was there were Fixit was just exiting after connecting a final set of wires into some kind of pedestal with a big green gem in the middle. Many colored cables seemed to come from holes in the device and into a nearby computer.

"I found one of those broken teleporters at the Hidden Palace and thought we could give it a new use. I managed to amplify it's power, and should be strong enough to teleport you right to the shoreline without having to drain yourself swimming!"

"It is a one-way trip, however. So getting you back it's gonna be something we'll cross when we get there.." She said with a wink then gave him a small device. "Put this in your ear, you won't feel it but it'll let us communicate from far away."

She couldn't help but blush a little when she noticed his concerns for her. Showing another smile and noting Tikal wasn't around, she took the chance and moved closer, pressing her lips to his in a short but deep kiss. "Don't go hurting yourself badly, you hear? I want you back in one piece..."

A short pause happened then, Relic feeling something poking at her. "Heh, should have known that was gonna get you all pent up. Let me take care of it, okay?"

With that the pika girl got to her knees and wrapped her hand around his growing member, giving it a few stokes before starting to softly lick the head.
 
Letting Relic drag him into another room within her workshop as she mentioned another way for him to make his way off the Island other than swimming, Knuckles set his eyes on a pedestal connected to an emerald that resembled those in the Hidden Palace Zone, and Relic explained that she and Fixit had fixed it up for longer range teleportation that should get him off Angel Island and onto the shoreline. "Well...I guess that makes more sense. Let's just do that." he replied begrudgingly, having to admit that would be better than swimming or gliding.

"I'll find a way back somehow, don't worry about that." Knuckles said as Relic also explained that it was a one-way teleportation, accepting the communication device she had for him as well, and placing it in his ear.

He was then surprised as she stepped closer and gave him a kiss on the lips, and glanced away in embarrassment as she smiled at him. "Y-Yeah, yeah. I'll be fine." he replied...only to blink as he realized that he was poking Relic with a large part of his anatomy. And as he couldn't exactly embark on his adventure with such a problem, Relic volunteered to take care of it for him before he left.

Immediately shivering as she wrapped her hand around his erection and began to stroke him off, he took a breath as she even began softly licking his tip, and let his hand rest atop her head as she worked. "D-Damn...I'm gonna miss this while I'm gone..."
 
Relic simply grinned at that statement. And so, she then took more of Knuckles' hardened prick into her mouth, quickly picking up a pace, bobbing up and down.

"Mmmhm..." She hummed softly in her blowjob, prompting her hand to sneak underneath and caress his sack alongside it. She closed her eyes and took it deeper down her throat. If it was gonna be back to just her fingers and toy for a while, she might as well leave him with a good time.

She continued, quickly becoming faster and faster.
 
Knuckles groaned as Relic took more of his cock down her throat, shivering as he felt her soft hand teasing his groin further as well, and locked his legs together to keep himself on his feet as she sped things up. He could feel his manhood throbbing within her mouth, and as his lust began to grow, he was soon working his hips to lightly thrust himself a little bit further down her throat.
 
Knuckles' new slight movements didn't stop Relic from continuing with her blowjob. Holding on to his buttocks, she continued to bob up and down, going along rhythmically with the echidna's own thrusts. Her voice muffled by the big cock, but clearly in a moan as she closed her eyes and let herself keep going.
 
The way that Relic gripped his bottom was strangely arousing, exciting him further as she continued to orally pleasure him, and he groaned again at the way her moan vibrated along his shaft. Another moment or so passed in this manner as her blowjob continued, yet soon enough, Knuckles felt himself reaching his limit, leading to one final thrust down her throat before he shot a load of his cum into her mouth.

"W-Whoa...hah...a-ahh..." Knuckles breathed while the two of them recovered...smirking just a bit as they both realized that he was still quite hard. She'd probably be used to this by now though, knowing exactly how much stamina the Guardian could have once he was riled up.

Teasingly ruffling Relic's hair as he slowly slid himself out of her mouth - his manhood throbbing and twitching as it was exposed to the open air once more - Knuckles looked down into the archeologist's intelligent eyes, his own beginning to become clouded with lust once more. "...think we have enough time...?" he asked, his intent obvious.
 
Relic was rather surprised by the strong load, bearing herself as to not choke on it. She slowly swallowed, eventually taking a sight of relief once it was done.

However it appeared that the red echidna was still with his member quite hard, which made the blue pika sigh. "Figures..." she said.

Standing up, she moved towards a control panel wide enough as to not accidentally press any buttons. She lowered herself upon it while rising her backside up towards Knuckles, then pulled part of her skinsuit down, enough for her private parts to be exposed.

"You're unbearable sometimes, bloody hells. But I'm gonna miss the feeling. So make it a good one please." She said. Offering one last quickie before he departed.
 
Watching with interest as Relic walked towards a nearby control panel to use to support herself before raising her alluring ass up for him and pulling enough of her skinsuit down to expose herself, Knuckles came closer to teasingly press his hard manhood against her noticeably slick, damp pussy, rubbing against it lewdly even as she remarked on how much trouble his sexual drive was at times.

"Like you don't like it." he replied with a bit of a smirk, unable to help himself as he felt himself growing more and more excited, and began forcing his cock into her woman, groaning softly at the familiar but no-less-enjoyable sensation of her tight, hot inner walls clamping down upon the length of his shaft. Gripping her shapely hips to help steady them both, he began powerfully thrusting his own hips back and forth, working to drive himself deeper within her with each forward motion.

"How's that? Good enough for you?" he grunted from exertion, already enjoying himself.
 
Relic's moans of delight seemed to give him the answer he seeked. She gripped hard against the console, holding herself while her rear wobbled slightly with every hard thrusts Knuckles did.

"Ngh...yes..like that...ooh bloody hell, give it to me..." She exclaimed, biting her lower lip.
 
Enjoying the lustful sounds Relic gave in immediate response to his thrusts into her womanhood, Knuckles only picked up the pace as her shapely ass bounced against his midsection. Hunching over her a little bit as he continued to relentlessly drill into her, he slipped his arm around her waistline and reached outwards to cup her heaving breasts, squeezing and working them in his strong grip.

"Not so...prim and proper...when we're like this...are you?" he managed to say between thrusts, a bit of a smirk on his face as he teased her...not that he minded the way Relic became when she was really worked up.
 
"W-why you....oooooh..." Relic could barely speak at this point. Her vice being replaced by mostly moans as Knuckles continued to ram his prick hard deep inside her. She liked how rough he could gets sometimes, yet still caring.

She could feel her orgasm approaching, and as such her breathing and moans accelerated more and more. "Yes..ooh...oooh...yes yes yes..."

Then it hit her, her hands gripping at the console as one last crie was let out as her body tensed in delight.
 
Managing a laugh as Relic tried and failed to come up with much of a retort to his teasing in between her moans and gasps of pleasure, Knuckles plowed into her that much more fiercely, able to feel his manhood pulsing and throbbing within her pussy as she grew tighter and tighter in response to their lovemaking, leaving him grunting and gasping as well.

Soon enough, he could feel her tensing up in that way that signaled an orgasm was approaching, and seconds later, felt that rush of warmth as it began, drawing a groan of pleasure from the echidna as it washed over him, pushing him over the edge and bringing him to an orgasm as well, coating her inner walls with his white hot seed.

Left hunched over the archeologist as the two enjoyed and rode out the sensation of their orgasms, the Guardian rested his chin on the pika's shoulder while they caught their breath, and smirked a bit as he met her eyes. "Not a bad way to say goodbye...huh...?"
 
Relic simply glanced back at him, smirking, and said panting, "Just get on the teleporter before I change my mind and make you swim all the way there..." That bit jokingly, of course.

With everything set and cleaned up, the red echidna was led into the ancient device. Carrying the Gaia Vessel with him (we don't need to explain how he can save items without clothes...), Relic headed to the control panel and soon started putting the necessary inputs. With one last press of a button, Knuckles was encased in a beam of light.

When the flash dissipated, he was now far from Angel Island, the soft warm sand touching at his shoes, while the calm sounds of the waves crashing on the sea greeted him to a more tropical environment.

The place appeared desolate, at least at first glance, however, from the corner of his eyes, our hero noticed something venturing in to the mass of threes nearby. A single Motorbug badnik, rolling on its one wheel into the green depths. This seemed fishy...
 
Sharing a laugh with Relic as they rested for a moment before cleaning up and getting everything repaired, Knuckles was soon standing on the repurposed teleporter with the Gaia Vessel in tow, ready to begin his journey. With one last goodbye, the Guardian was sent on his way in a beam of light, and the next thing he knew, he was standing on a sandy beach by the ocean, far from home on Angel Island, with no immediate way to return.

Trying not to think about it and instead focusing on how important it was that he was out here, the red echidna momentarily took in his surroundings, not often being seaside in this manner. As he enjoyed the ocean breeze though, something caught his eye, and when he turned towards the trees, he spied a badnik making it's way deeper into the foliage, prompting him to frown. What was one of the Eggman Empire's robots doing way out here?

Normally, his first instinct would be to smash the badnik to pieces, and that was pretty tempting to follow through on, but instead, Knuckles decided to try something a little more tactful, beginning to follow it to see just what was going on.
 
Knuckles followed the Badnik through the dirty path. The Motorbug zigzagged as it avoided palm trees and rocks, heading to a specified direction or so it seemed.

However, as the red echidna continued to stalk, he heard something moving around. The sounds of fast footsteps, twigs breaking under the weight of a foot. Someone was roaming around. The motorbug turned around to see the source of noise, only for suddenly be attacked by a blast of blue energy that shot from the bushes and impacted it directly. The Badnik breaking short-circuiting before breaking apart and liberating the small animal inside.

In any other instance, getting rid of another of Eggman's machines was a good thing. However, our hero didn't know where it was headed before being destroyed and, even worse, the energy blasts kept going, this time towards him!!

Suddely the figure emerged and attacked. A trident spear only barely thrusting near him, almost hurting him. A purple dolphin mobia stood before him, holding the weapon. She wore a green dress and a golden helmet as she stared with fierce eyes at him.

"You shall advance no further! Whatever you were planning with your machine ally there ceases now!!" She proclaimed.
 
Following the Badnik from a safe distance, Knuckles was hopeful that he would soon discover it's destination or what it was searching for, as it seemed to be moving with purpose, rather than simply wandering around. Before it could reach wherever it was that it was trying to go though, Knuckles' sharp senses caught the sound of something else nearby - someone approaching quickly - and before he could even blink, a powerful blast of blue energy shot out of the foliage and took the Motobug out in an instant, freeing the mobini inside...which was good...but ending his lead...which was bad!

Even worse, several more energy blasts fired out of the bushes as well, and all of them in his direction!

"H-Hey!" Knuckles exclaimed in shock, throwing himself out of the way of the blasts just in time for the person firing them to reveal themselves and attack up close and person as well, wielding a nasty looking trident that only just missed him as he continued to dodge, tucking into a roll that brought him out in a crouch as the wielder - a purple dolphin mobian - held it towards him threateningly.

"What are you talking about!? I wasn't planning anything, and that Badnik you just destroyed wasn't my friend! I was following it to see where it was going! Now put down that trident down before someone gets hurt!"
 
"What a convenient tale. How can I trust you're not working with them? I know you people have the Princess hostage, so hand her over!" Said the Dolphin mobian girl as she kept her spear up and pointing at Knuckles.

She appeared quite firm on her resolve, not really trusting the red echidna. However, from the corner of his eye, Knuckles noticed something atop a tree behind her. A Coconuts badnik holding up at the top of the tree, rising it's explosive projectile aiming right at her!!!
 
"I don't even know who they are! I don't know anything about any Princess either!" Knuckles retorted as the Dolphin Mobian continued to threaten him with her spear, unwilling to believe him. Before he could say or do anything else in his defense though, the Guardian spied another badnik hidden up at the top of a nearby tree, and his eyes widened as he realized it was about to throw a bomb down at his attacker.

"Watch out!" Knuckles exclaimed, pushing the girl out of the way as he charged the tree and struck it with his fist, using enough force to shake it up enough to drop the Coconuts to the ground, where he promptly smashed it to bits with another strike.

"Still think I'm working with the bad guys?" he asked over his shoulder, while the tiny animal that had been trapped within in the badnik scampered off to safety.
 
The dolphin girl watched in awe as Knuckles rushed past her and brought another robotic baddie down before it could strike her, then smashed it to pieces, freeing the small animal inside. She slowly lowered her spear, seeing things more clearly.

"You're right...my apologies" She said before approaching the red echidna. "I acted rashly. My name is Echo the Dolphin, part of the Meropis Royal Guard."

She crossed her arms as a sigh escaped her, having placed her spear back on her back as a sign of no longer threatening. "I'm looking for the people who kidnapped the her to the throne, Princess Udina." She rubbed her temples following a groan, "Ugh, she can be such a handful, leaving the castle and city without telling anyone and now we got to learn someone captured her with the help of those robotic minions like the ones you and I smashed. I must find the princess before something happens to her! It is my duty as a royal guard."
 
Of all people, Knuckles knew a thing or two about acting rashly and making a mistake in the process, so he nodded his head as the dolphin girl apologized for attacking him, and turned to face her as she came closer to introduce herself. "I'm Knuckles the Echidna; Guardian of the Master Emerald." he replied, not wanting to be the only one without a title in this conversation.

Momentarily glancing at the way her breasts were emphasized by the way she crossed her arms beneath them before returning his attention to her words, Knuckles folded his arms over his own chest as he listened, and frowned softly as Echo revealed that someone important - a Princess - had been captured by someone using badniks, which had to mean that someone was working for Eggman. "That sounds bad. Normally, I'd help you out, but I've got my own problems right now. I don't suppose anyone in this Meropis you're from knows anything about Gaia Trees, or Gaia Pools, do they?"
 
Echo looked at him with surprised eyes. Her hand appeared to move to pick back on her spear but she halted before saying. "I may have....heard about it..."

She could tell she may need help, and so she was making sure she could have some leverage to convince the echidna of aiding her with her issue. "The royal family of Meropis is said to know something about the shrines that are located in this area. Help me rescue her, and she may just help you." Echo extended her hand to him, "Deal?"
 
Knuckles was a bit surprised when Echo informed him that the Royal Family of Meropis that her missing Princess belonged to might know something about what he was looking for, but decided to take it as a stroke of good luck, and reached out to shake her hand as she made her offer. "Deal. So, where was your Princess last seen? Have there been any other badniks seen in the area? We're going to need to find more...seeing as you smashed the one I was following and all..." he replied.
 
Echo seemed a bit embarrassed when Knuckles asked, "Well...the issue is that the princess is rather...em...lively, to put it nicely. She is always so keen in seeing the world because of her previous sheltered childhood that she usually doesn't think things through. She decided to sneak away from the Guard's watch before this happened. Ugh, if only she wouldn't be such a rash--...."

And then, from the corner of her eye, she saw something at a distance. Another Motorbug, making it's rounds into the jungle's depths. Echo's eyes widened, suddenly turning Knuckles around for him to see. "There! One of those machines. We better follow it then!"

-------------------

The duo was quick on the Badnik's trail. Making sure not to alert it so they could find their source, or at least whoever is commanding them. This lead them to a clearing where the foliage parted away, only with a few large trees generating shade over what seemed like a old structure of ancient stone. Moss growing on its side and a large locked door lied up front. Knuckles recognized the marking upon the front, very similar to the ones of the temple Tikal led him in. Was this the Gaia Shrine that Relic was talking about?

However, he was quickly brought behind some bushes by Echo, giving him a quick "shush" sign with her finger before peeking out. The Badnik halted right in front of the two mobians standing in front of the ancient gate.

Two girls, one appeared to be a red scorpion mobian; Her eyes cerulean blue and wearing a pair of big mitten-like gloves and a black leotard with a white line on the middle alongside a blue sash around her hips. She appeared to have a firm and determined look at the door, humming softly to herself. Next to her was a tropical blue lizard mobian girl with orange spots across her head and with frills around the sides of her head resembling a hairdo. Her most prominent feature however, was the fact her torso and arms appeared to be roboticized rather than being just armor. She seemed to keep a rather aloof expression throughout, like if she didn't really care being standing there in the first place, just keeping her arms crossed.

"So...this is the place?" Asked The red scorpion girl.

"Yup." Simply responded the lizard with a rather unenthusiastic tone, "The entrance is locked tight, I guess."

"...I'm gonna punch it open!"

"No Pyra, you can't just punch it open..." responded the lizard with a sigh.

"Yeah I can!!" The scorpion girl, Pyra, responded with energy. "I'm gonna punch it!"

"No just...ugh. Look the door is too hard for that. And I won't be standing here and watch you spend all night just for nothing..."

"Awww."

The lizard girl sighed again, "We can just go back and get the mech and, like, just bust it open that way. These weird ruins always have some kind of old treasure or mystical artefact or something like that. And the old man likes their mystic junks so we give him one and we get a bonus and thatw ay i don't have to do any more work than necessary..."
 
Knuckles folded his arms over his chest as Echo explained a bit about what made this Princess Udina such a handful to watch out for as part of her Guard, tilting his head at the thought of how difficult it must have been to guard something that could actually...move around. He might have commented on it, but before he could say anything, he suddenly found himself spun around by the dolphin mobian, and he blinked in surprise at spying another Motobug in the distance. "That's a lucky break." he thought aloud before beginning to follow after it with Echo hot on his tail.

"Just don't smash this one...at least not yet, anyway."

---

The Motobug eventually led them to a clearing further within the forest, wherein the Guardian could see an ancient temple constructed of stone, quickly noticing it's similarities to the temple Tikal had led him to back on Angel Island, and wondering if it might possibly be the Gaia Temple that Relic had sent him here to find. "...That's a lucky break." Knuckles said again as he took in the sight of the temple for a few seconds before being yanked down by Echo into the foliage as she signaled for him to observe something.

The Badnik soon approached a pair of female mobians - one a red scorpion, the other a blue lizard, who appeared to bare some roboticized body parts in a manner similar to the Freedom Fighter, Bunnie Rabbot - who were also examining the old temple, with the scorpion girl wanting to hotheadedly bash her way in, while her companion unenthusiastically advised other options, and Knuckles' eyes narrowed as he jumped to what he assumed was the logical conclusion in a manner similar to Echo when she had attacked him earlier, rushing out of the foliage and wrecking the Motobug with a single hammer-strike of his fist, freeing the animal inside.

"Alright, you two! I know that Badnik was one of yours, which means you must be working for the Eggman Empire! Where is the Princess? Tell us, and maybe I'll go easy on you!" he exclaimed, pointing at them with one of his big mitts.
 
"What are you doing!?" Echo exclaimed in a mixture of whisper and shout. Bursting out and ruining the element of surprise they had like that. Sure she had been brash before but this guy seemed to rebel in it.

"Huh?" Pyra looked at the red newcomer, eyes widened followed by a loud gasp as she exclaimed with massive excitement. "Oh my gosh! It's...it's..."

"...Roxi, who is this guy?"

Everyone but the lizard had to take a moment to keep them from just face faulting into the floor for that. The lizard girl just sighed.

"Ugh, let me check into the doc's database..." Roxi, the other Egg soldier started to press some buttons upon her robotic arm, from its wrist came a holographic screen with a symbol of loading before an image of Knuckles came out alongside some text. "Knuckles the Echidna...Guardian of some Master Emerald...self-proclaimed Leader of the Resistance-branch of Freedom Fighters at the old man's global take-over, blah blah...say here he is a total knucklehead, buuut seems it's one of the people on doc's main "to-get-rid-of" list so he must have done a lot to piss him off, I guess..."

Echo was surprised to hear about him having dealt with people like this before. She came out from the bushes and held her trident up. "Alright, you two. As he said: Where's the Princess?"

Roxi simply groaned, speaking in a rather aloof way "Ugh, seriously? And here I was hoping to just have a chill day. Get the princess captured, hold her for ransom, make some money in the side AND find whatever its inside this place...but now it seems I'll have to work..." She really sounded like she didn't wanna be here.

She turned to her partner, "I'll go get the mech. Pyra, go knock your head against them or whatever..." She started to walk away, but Echo immediatly rushed towards her.

"You're not going anywhere until you tell me where the princess i--!!"

However before she could strike her, Roxi surprised the dolphin mobian when her arm turned into a canon, which soot a blast of some kind of acid like purple goop. Echo jumped back when it hit the ground, but this allowed the lizard girl to disappear into the trees.

Meanwhile, the red scorpion girl appeared ecstatic, suddenly rushing to Knuckles and delivering a powerful jawline punch that send the Echidna stright into a tree, having bee caught by surprise. It was almost like fire had been ignited in her eyes.

"Hey Red Guy, you sounded strong in that bio. I like that! My name is Pyra the Red Scorpion; Egg Boss of the Shamar section, but I'm here to help my friend Roxi here...So, do you wanna fight? Cause I do! Come on let's fight!!" She exclaimed, skipping around all peppy and excited.
