[ P - Pre-Teen ]

I don't own Knuckles or Rouge but Gierin belongs to me, if you want to use any of my
characters then you only need to ask. (In short) No plagiarism please.

It was an early morning on Angel Island, Knuckles was just waking up. Next to him was his
wife, Rouge who was fast asleep. She'd been asleep for the past twenty- four hours. Knuckles
got out of bed and put on his shoes, as he got dressed, Rouge woke up.

"Good morning, Knuckles."Rouge said, now full of energy.

"You know, Rouge, you've messed up your sleeping pattern."Knuckles said.

Knuckles left the room so Rouge could get dressed. When she was dressed, both of them went
out to the living room and sat on the couch. For some strange reason, Rouge was still sleepy.

For a long time, the two were silent. The silence was broken by the sound of Rouge wheezing as
if she were sick, she rushed to the bathroom and slammed the door. Knuckles could hear Rouge
throwing up in the bathroom. When Rouge returned, she didn't look so good.

"I've never felt this bad, I'm calling the doctor."Rouge said.

That afternoon, Rouge and Knuckles went to see the doctor. After the doctor had been given the
results of what was going on with Rouge, he couldn't believe it.

"Well, this is going to sound a little funny but you're pregnant, Rouge."the doctor said.

"But how? Knuckles and I are two different species."Rouge said.

"I don't know how it happened."the doctor said.

This confused everybody, how could it have happened. Somehow, Knuckles and Rouge got over
this event and began to act happy about it but there were a few things they had to worry about,
weather their child would be healthy and when it would be born. This was indeed stressful
because a new species of creature could mean all kinds of experiments and tests just for science,
Knuckles promised that it would never happen to his child. He found it cruel to and pointless to
do to an infant and keep at it for the rest of it's life, Knuckles just wouldn't have it.

The next few days went smoothly, Rouge was still worried. Knuckles was willing to fight in
order to keep his child's freedom, both of them knew that a bunch of careless scientists were
going to try and force them to give up their child so Knuckles was constantly on his toes, willing
to fight.







A few weeks had passed, Rouge and Knuckles were sitting on the couch.

"*yawn* I'm going to take a nap."Rouge said.

Suddenly, Rouge collapsed onto the floor. Knuckles ran over to Rouge and helped her sit up, he
knew exactly what was wrong.

"Rouge, can you stand up?"Knuckles asked.

"No, I barely have the strength to move my arms."Rouge replied.

"Well, I can't take you to the hospital. You're too heavy for me to fly you there."

"Well do something!"

"Try to hold onto me, I'll carry you to a safe place."Knuckles said.

Knuckles took Rouge to the bedroom and put her on the bed. Rouge tried to stay calm,
there wasn't a whole lot that Knuckles could do after all, echidnas are egg laying mammals.
For a long time, Rouge just appeared to be hevily breathing. Suddenly, a blood kurtling scream
was heard all across Angel Island.

"We... are never.. doing this... again!"Rouge said while gripping Knuckles around the neck.

With her teeth clenched, Rouge pushed with all her might.She tried again. Then, Rouge felt something
slowly leave her body and the pain eased. She fell back into the pillow when she heard her child cry.
Knuckles picked up the screaming child and tried to clean it up as best he could. When Rouge had
the strength, she looked over at Knuckles who was now holding a small creature but it was too
small to see clearly from a distance.

"Rouge."Knuckles said.

"What?"Rouge replied.

"We are the parents of a sweet little girl."Knuckles announced.

Knuckles wrapped his crying daughter in a blanket and placed her in Rouge's arms. Rouge looked at the
infant that was no larger than a plum, she looked like a red echidna with large white ears, she also had soft
dreadlocks that could easily be brushed into fine, silky hair, the child also had tiny wings. The infant also had large knuckles like her father.
(Normally, only male echidnas have that trait but this child is a crossbreed.) She continued to cry, Rouge spoke
to her daughter softly and tried to comfort her.

"Shh... It's okay, I'm here."Rouge cooed.

"*sniffle, cry*"

"Shh..."

Soon, the child fell asleep, she was able to hear her mother's soft heart beat.

"How did you do that?"Knuckles asked quietly.

"Do what?"Rouge asked.

"How did you get her to fall asleep so fast?"

"I don't know, it just happened."

There was a long silence.

"Uh... Knuckles, what are we going to name her?"Rouge asked.

"Hmmm."Knuckles said as he thought.

"Why don't we call her Gierin?"Knuckles suggested.

"What kind of a name is that?!"Rouge asked.

"It's a name that means different and unusual."Knuckles replied. (I just made that up, I don't think Gierin is even
a real name.)

"Yeah, that sounds pretty good. It definatly fits her character but are you sure it's alright
to have a girl be a guardian for the Master emerald?"Rouge asked.

"I don't see why not."Knuckles replied.

"May I hold her?"Knuckles asked.

"Sure, just try not to wake her."Rouge replied.

Knuckles looked at his daughter, she certainly did look like an echidna but for some reason,
Gierin also looked like Rouge without actually looking like her. It was strange.
