**Skyrin Aki** is the middle child of the Aki family. Originally the successor to the the family throne, Skyrin becomes pushed into a much greater story, traveling to Mobius with his younger brother Dark as request of his mother. This would lead him into discovering Tails and his sister, becoming a survivor of the Chaos virus wave, and much more. Although he has let go of being a ruler, Skyrin often jumps ahead as a protector for his friends and family.

## Backstory

### **Young Skyrin**

A year after his sister is born, Skyla and Kamuy Aki give birth to Skyrin. Kamuy, excited that Kitsu-Shi's ritual can be continued, would push Skyrin into learning politics, sword fighting, and to harness the Aki Heirloom. Skyrin would begin his training with his father around the age of five, being gently pushed to learn how to harness a weapon of his own first. While he was often shy and scared of his father, Skyrin's love for Kamuy would lead him into making his own sword, shaped after a Katana. Overjoyed, Skyrin would begin to keep it out with him, everywhere he went. This small gesture would begin to shape him from the shy and nervous fox, to the more confident male he would become.

By the age of eight, Skyrin was beginning to learn the vast network of Tenebris politics. He was starting to take the place of his sister at his fathers side during meetings with the leaders of the other nations. He would meet his soon to be childhood Aeron Xochitl. Once he would learn that she was to be the leader of her tribe just as he was to rule the fox nation, Skyrin grew more interest in taking his fathers place. To impress his new friend, Skyrin would take Aeron out to the woods to show off his skills with a katana. All was going well until the two encountered a large Black Bear. The bear was not happy with Skyrin being in it's territory, the animal rushing to attack the fox. Skyrin would shell up, reverting to his shy nervous self as the child wets himself out of pure fright. Before the bear could strike, his mother intervenes, as well as Aeron's mother. Lucky for Skyrin, his friend was also cowering and did not see the embarrassing display.

This event would teach Skyrin how dangerous the world was around him. He never wanted to be that scared again. Skyrin would spend the rest of his childhood, harnessing his skills with the sword and going out on hunts with his mother.

### **Too young to ascend the throne**

At the age of thirteen, Skyrin's father would become ill, passing away for reasons unknown to Skyrin. This was terrible news for the fox. He was not ready to take his fathers place as ruler of Kitsu-Shi. Because of traditions, Skyrin was not of age to take the heirloom for himself. His sister, Noira could not take it as well, and soon Kitsu-Shi would find itself in array, trying to figure out the next step. His sister, Noira, having the obsession's of wanting to be the nations ruler, would forgo tradition and thrust herself into power, using her aroma and seductive lore to push herself into her fathers place. For Skyrin, this seemed like a good thing. If someone was to take it's place before him, then he would no longer have to. He couldn't be further from the truth.

Skyrin would spend the next three years being watched and carefully monitored by his sister, caged up in a chamber in the castle after trying to make a few escapes to Aiztik. He was never allowed to leave the castle's walls, only to come with her to meet with the other leaders. His only reprieve was meeting with his closest friend, but even those meetings were becoming fewer and far between.

When Skyrin would turn sixteen, it was now time for him to have to find a suitor so that he could reclaim the heirloom that was now long since protected in their fathers grave. He had no interest in any vixen sent his way, Noira doing whatever she could to convince any charming female to suite Skyrin. Skyrin had to find a partner, a female willing to love him if he was ever to retrieve what was rightfully his. However, Skyrin grew tired of this treatment. With no experience with loving a female, Skyrin would disappoint and send away all vixens his sister tried. There was a light at the end of the tunnel for Skyrin. Seeing his disarray, his mother would finally interject, convincing Noira to let him roam around freely again. He regained his freedom, but only while under close watch and for few hours during the day.

There was only one person Skyrin could go to. The fox would meet with Aeron many times, the echidna taking it upon herself to teach Skyrin how to tend and care for a female he may one day truly love. This would go on for several months, until after some suspicion, Noira would follow Skyrin to meet his friend. It would be a typical night for the two, Skyrin and Aeron talking with Aeron leading into another lesson. This night's lesson would be on how to kiss a female. As the two kissed, they would be abruptly interrupted by Skyrin's sister, the two grabbed and brought back to Kitsu-Shi. Inside his chambers, Skyrin and Aeron would be forced to share intercourse with one another. This night would be etched into Skyrin's mind for a long time. He would become devastated after seeing what he would think is deep sadness on the Echidna's face. He needed a way out of this situation.

His wish would be answered, a meeting with the great Dr. Eggman and his humble daughter, Omelette. The two would offer their mother a way to help his brother and take Skyrin away for some information. Quick to take it, Skyrin and Dark would be taken to Mobius. However, catching wind of this, Noira would get there just before the group would leave, using her aroma on the fox. He wouldn't understand what she had done at the time, but it did not matter. He was free of her grasp and a new life could be his.

### **The Chaos Virus Arc**

Escaping from his sisters clutches, Skyrin would be taken back by the sights that was Mobius. This land was far different then his own, from the blue sky to the modern aesthetic. His excitement was short lived as Skyrin quickly learns him and Dark were to be used to test the new creature that the doctor had acquired. Skyrin quickly breaks out of his containment, escaping from the ship the two were now on. He would try to find his brother, but would find himself in a dire situation, jump or be recaptured. He looks back, vowing he would find Dark, jumping into the clouds. The fox would crash onto the beach of Emerald Coast. Skyrin would try to give chase, in the hopes of finding where Dr. Eggman was taking his brother, but a fleeting sense of needing to find home was starting to take over his thoughts. He would lose track of the small carrier.

Skyrin would spend the next month learning and adapting to his new surroundings, the fox getting himself into criminal mischief as he tried to make a living out of the sewers of the city. As the month would go by, Skyrin would start to hear civil unrest between the humans and Mobians. Skyrin kept himself hidden, already in enough trouble after taking some gloves and shoes from a shop in the city. Creeping around, Skyrin would see a large gathering of people and a familiar voice. In front of him, Dr. Eggman was giving a speech about the dangers of the mobians and that the work he was doing was not to take over the world, but to protect humans from these terrible creatures. There, Skyrin watched as a blue hedgehog would step up, trying to fight the creature that had come back from Tenebris. The crowd was too large for Skyrin to catch what was going on, but the sudden screams and people running was enough for him to get away.

Skyrin would retreat back to the safety of his new home, waiting for he unrest to pass. What he wasn't ready for was upon his return to the surface after bunkering for two weeks, was seeing the world he watched in awe, now in disarray and slowly crumbling. Skyrin tries to figure out what was going on, overhearing a few Mobians talking about their heroes were defeated and now the chaos nor super emeralds were nowhere to be found. When he learns about the Chaos Emeralds from the passerbies, they would become his new goal. Something so powerful had to be the way home, he thought. Where to begin, Skyrin had no idea, but it was his only lead.

His search would take him all across the city, Skyrin finds out where one of the emeralds was from overhearing a call from Eggman to his drones. Rushing to the underskirt, Skyrin would come across a vixen of golden blonde fur. The two were after the same thing and Skyrin could not let her go on her own. What he could not figure out, was the vixen's complete disdain for him. After a long trek, a battle with some bots, the two would recover the emerald. Skyrin wanting it, would become discouraged when this vixen would ask him if he knew how to use it. At this point, the wind in Skyrin's sail was blown out. A new plan strikes the fox and he would forcefully follow the vixen back to the workshop she had called home.
