Okay there is a serious lack of BlazeXKnux on this site, but I think this pairing could work, they are both guardians and they have similar personalities. So you don't like this pairing? Don't care, you don't have to read. In this story Knuckles has chaos powers, and I am going by the fact that guardians have the power to tap into the chaos energy.

Knuckles and Blaze belong to Sega as all other Sonic Characters involved in the story.

Chapter 1 - A Burning Tension

Knuckles lay down on the alter against the giant glimmering Master Emerald. He had his arms behind his head as he watched the clouds move by up in the sky. As usual it was another boring day in the life of Knuckles the Echidna. Knuckles may of held his job in high regard, but he hated it. He just wished that he could leave the island and visit a few friends once in awhile, but it was imminent that someone would come and try to take it. He could always just shrink the emerald down and take it with him but that would make the island sink.

Knuckles' body tensed; he wasn't alone. Before he could take any further action, a being engulfed in fire shot out of the midst of the forest leaving a blazing trail behind it. Knuckles quickly leapt up and held out his hands as the figure collided with him. He tried as best as he could to stay in place, any further back could knock him back into the Master emerald, in result shattering it.

Knuckles summoned what strength he could and pushed the figure flying back. As the figure flew through the air the flaming aura around it diminished revealing a lavender colored female cat. She regained control of herself in mid-air and performed a flip landing on the ground.

"Your that catwoman! What are you doing here?" Knuckles shouted demanding an answer. He was unaware that Blaze and a few of the other being from her universe now permanently resided here.

"For your information my name is Blaze, and I came here to get the Sol Emeralds back from the one who stole them!" Without further words being said Blaze quickly dashed forward sending a kick flying straight for Knuckles.

Knuckles shielded his face with his arms, blocking the kick, as Blaze quickly jumped back. This was quite ironic to him, he was usually the one that blamed accused others of stealing the Master emerald from him; He had never been accused of stealing something. None the less he knew that he didn't steal the "Sol Emeralds" that she spoke of. Blaze up dashed up the altar again towards him, instead of blocking this time he sidestepped. It was too late to correct his mistake, what he had dreaded happened.

Blaze slammed straight into the emerald, shattering it into hundreds of pieces that went flying everywhere.

"No!"

Knuckles knew what would happen next and it was imminent. Right on cue the island started shaking violently as it plummeted straight towards the sea. Knuckles quickly grabbed Blaze's hand and glided over to a nearby pillar which he dug his fist into. He quickly wrapped the arm he had grabbed Blaze around her and held her close. Before Blaze could react, the island hit the water sending out enormous tidal waves.

When things calmed down Knuckles let go of the pillar and dropped the the ground. He sat Blaze down gently, he noted that she must of fainted when they fell.

It looked like Knuckles had another adventure ahead of him.
