This choice: Do you want a closer look? • Go Back...Chapter #4Caught Red Hand-Footed by: Inchpin "Given that your first move was to check out my feet, I think we both know what's next." The looming face of the echidna shifts to a smirk, eyes narrowing and focusing on you. Your face flushes involuntarily, nearly as red as the god who now grins down at you, holding your tiny form in his hands. Somehow, some way, the echidna knew that you wanted this exactly. How? Doesn't matter. This is your dream come true, and you're more than eager to go along with whatever your new echidna god wanted from you. Without hesitation, you scream an affirmation and begin disrobing, tossing your minuscule clothing to the palm you stand upon.
"Hmph, as eager as ever. Let's see if you're as good as you used to be."
As the booming voice rolls over you, the silken plateau of the gloved hand begins to tilt to one side. You scramble to find a handhold, desperately clinging to the rip in the fabric below you.

The smirk on Knuckles's face was blurry and out of focus, too far away for you to make out.
"Don't worry, Sonic said he couldn't break you last time, so you should be fine."
The distant thunder was broken up by a wry chuckle, and followed by shock waves as Knuckles tapped his toes on the floor, the building sized appendages more than big enough to shake you to your core. Red and slick with sweat, they thundered down one after the other, before his left foot rose into the air. A faint trace of steam emanated off the floor from where it once stood, pulled into the air as the massive red foot came to hover directly above you. You're cast into shadow as a few drops of sweat begin to rain down around you, before a beam of light gaps the darkness.
