Knuckles decided to take N/N away and to the Angel Island, where their home actually is.

When they arrived N/N was...well speechless to say atleast, who would expect to live in a floating island anyway?

"and this is the Master Emerald...as far as i know this is the only remains of our ancestors.." Knuckles said patting the green emerald gently as N/N stared at the Master Emerald seeing his own reflection on it, sensing the power inside...he doesn't know how to feel about this.

"this...this.." N/N didn't manage to finish as Knuckles stared at him.

"incredible? Yes...it is..."Knuckles decided to finish N/N's words as N/N continued to stare.

"..the position as a Guardian have been passed down to generations and generations...until"he said as N/N blink in suprised when Knuckles grab his hand and made him touch the Master Emerald, feeling the warm sensation around the power gem.

"..it passed down...to us" Knuckles said as N/N turn to look at him as Knuckles smiled in respond, N/N look back at him.

N/N stared at him...soon a small smile appeared on his muzzle and nodded.

This...made him feel...right...he felt this is where he belong, this warm feeling is welcoming..he likes it.

For the first time after he woken up...he felt at home..

After few more days passed, he is still isn't use living like this but slowly fitting in, they give him new spare of shoes, still similar to his old one but no Eggman logo and different colors instead also a new spare of glove as well.

But N/N soon noticed that the others are hanging out with him often and give him gift that he doesn't even know what's the use of it anyway but he keep them.

He mostly get flowers from Sonic, he appreciated it and he even plant the flowers on the Angel Island thinking it might continue to grow much to Knuckles amusement, that is until one time when Sonic give him a different flower it made him sneeze none stop so Knuckles always check what Sonic brings him.

He also gets chocolates desserts from Amy, they are sweets and delicious but he gets tired eating it all day so he give some to the children.

Mighty hanged out with him but he wondered why at night and eating in a place which Mighty called it called 'expensive restaurant', he doesn't understand the food there but as long it's delicious, though he was weirded out when a random mobian that work their suddenly played a violin very close to them.

Shadow arrived at the Angel Island often whenever Knuckles is out and they hang out, they usual star gaze or hang out in a place called park, but Shadow keeps looking away from him whenever he look back and have his muzzle red, he wondered if there was something wrong in his face that made him act like that.

Rough always give him gifts and said some weird words to him, Ray said she's flirting but he doesn't understand her flirts, Knuckles sometimes caught her and tried to chase her away while N/N just ignore them getting tired of it.

Espio and him would go read different books, but sometimes Espio would give some papers which he didn't understand most of it om what's written on it, but still good and felt like these have meaning full words, Tails said it's a poem.

He also visited the rabbit's household, playing with Cream and Cheese again and talked with Vanilla at the recent events.

But he noticed everytime he hang out with the others Knuckles is always keeping a eye like guarding him, and whenever they give them gifts his always checking it, N/N feel annoyed because he can take care of himself, he beat Shadow for goodness sake!

But he decided to let him be, maybe he can talk to him about it later.

But still he like how he live now, chaotic sure but he love it.

Right now N/N is Tails's workshop, bisically Tails is putting a new robotic arm that he made and removing the old one that Eggman made.

N/N is still feeling worried about this but Knuckles is there with him so it made him a bit better.

"there we go...how is it? Does it feel uncomfortable?" Tails asked as N/N blink and look at his new robotic arm.

"uh...yeah..feels fine.." he said as he turn it a little and move the fingers and turn it to fist and open it again.

"alright I also added upgrades and made it more adjustable than your old one" said Tails as N/N nodded i respond.

"you alright?" Knuckles asked as N/N turn his head towards his direction.

"...yeah..of course I am" he said Knuckles know his not but he just put it aside.

Knuckles smiled as he put a hand on his back and slightly rub his back.

They eventually left Tails's workshop as Tails wave them a farewell and they returned it on their own and continue on.

Both brothers continue to walk towards the direction of the Angel Island, their silent as they continue to walk.

"..."

"your not saying anything?" N/N asked and continued to walked, Knuckles look away a bit but let out a deep sigh.

"I'm just thinking about this...I know your recovering still but...I know your still scared" Knuckles said as N/N let out a sigh and walk ahead of him.

"I know...but I'm still..Fitting in...you know?....I'm just trying to process this...I never think it would come to this way....." N/N said as he stopped walking, his stare darken as he continued to stare at the ground, he look at the distance and sees the sunset, a smile came across his face.

"...but..I'm glad you all treat me like this...even though I don't understand most of it...I'm still feel...loved and I like that..and I'm glad I met you after all these years..brother.." N/N said with a smile, but when Knuckles didn't respond he look slightly confused.

" Knuckles...you alri-"

THUD!
