Being the last of your own kind isn't fun, let me tell you. It's mostly lonely. Sometimes I wished there were more echidnas like me alive. I just while away my time doing... well... nothing. I guard the master Emerald. I'm lonely more then ever on my birthdays. That's why I don't celebrate them anymore. My friends come visit me once in a while but they have no idea what it means to be the last of your kind. I watch over the world every day wondering how my life would have been if only I had a sibling. My birthdays aren't the only lonely times for me. I spend Christmas and New years eve on my own every year. My friends invite me, but I refuse. This is a time for family, not friends. The snow falls cold on my nose and wakes me from my sleep. I don't have shelter. I don't need shelter. It's cold every year again but I endure it. I endure it because I have to. When my father died, he made me promise I would protect the master Emerald no matter what. There he is again. The blue hedgehog that invites me to stay at his house untill winter ends. I sigh as I explain it to him once more. I need to remain here. He shakes his head trying to convince me to come with him. I smile and tell him I apreciate his concern but I've been doing this every year since I was five. I told him I could handle it. I am Knuckles, guardian of the master Emerald, and no living being can stop me from doing my duty. I have no family but I don't care. This is my duty, this is me, this is who I am.
