This is my entry for :icongazer123:s contest!

Before making comments, I'm gonna write a little something, mostly what I think happened in the battle against Knux and a possesed Shad.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A large form was cruelly thrown to the ground in a sudden movement, causing a wave of sludge to splash up, summoned by the oncoming rainclouds. Ominous thunder boomed overhead, as if crying out in anguish at the horrid sight beneath.

The figure struggled to rise, lying in a mass of mud, water, and blood. His shoulders shook violently as he groaned, losing his strength visibly as he allowed his head to fall into the sludge once again. A vicious growl was heard from behind him,

"You fool. You thought that this was your destiny. You had your chance and you threw it away in trying to protect your precious Master Emerald." At that moment, the figure behind stopped, coming forward and spitting in the mud with disdain, "Now you lie in your own blood, left alone to die. Hmpf." The figure's blood red eyes were illuminated by a horrid purple glow that streamed from the bands around his face. His own face was smeared with blood, strength being sucked from him as well, even though he seemed not to show weakness.

Knuckles finally found enough strength to rise once more, lightening cracking in the sky, illuminating his face, causing the tears running down his cheeks to flash a blinding white in the lightening storm. He shakily lifted his gloved hands, small glistening shards lying in the mud around them, slowly disinegrating and losing their power. As he kneeled in the shattered remains of the Master Emerald, he lifted his nose to the sky and closed his eyes, causing more tears to run free.

The figure behind turned for a moment, a large grin spreading across his face. He chuckled darkly and turned once more, dissapearing in the darkness like a grim-reaper in the night.

Knuckles' shoulders shook with anguish as a green glow bounced off of his bloody face, the Master Emerald's shards flickering and fading, almost as if they were crying out in pain. As more lightening flashed in a deadly dance across the sky, Knuckles lifted his nose to the heavens and uttered a ravaged cry of anguish. He fell further to his knees as he opened his jaws and wailed, his voice being carried through the land as the thunder couldn't even drown out his voice.

Then, his arms fell to his sides, his gloves falling down into the mud. He closed his eyes tight and gritted his teeth, moaning in pain. As the final pieces of the Master Emerald sank into the mud, Knuckles fell silently, rain falling down on him. The water droplets slowly ran down the edges of his face, his eyelids flickering as his tears of pain mingled with his own blood. The rain continued as sheets of lightening flashed across the night sky, booming thunder crashing above the stars.

Knuckles lay there in the remains of the struggle, alone and defeated. He was dying, alone, ashamed, and a failure. It was the only word for it...


As guardian of the Master Emerald.....


He, had failed.


There's not much for me to say here that the story didn't tell.

As one of my first times drawing Knux, I couldn't be more pleased with the result.

Shadow, possesed by something unknown, battled against Knuckles in the heat of the storm.


If you notice, I added glow to Knuckles' eyes, something that's a first in my drawings.

I also made my signature smaller. I didn't want ANY of the picture to be covered.

I hope you like this piece as much as I do Gazer.
