Knuckles is a wonderful person but what will he think of me when I tell him my secret? Let me start from the beginning.

I met Knuckles and everyone else when I moved here from Japan around my 20th birthday. I ran into Knuckles first at a coffee shop and since then I was in love. So we sparked up a conversation and he wound up being late meeting up with his friends. He actually invited me along and I was glad to tag along. His friends were a bunch of welcoming and friendly bunch. When I mention I was from Japan they asked me some questions. Well I told them and they were really interested. My father was actually originally from America but moved to Japan for a high paying job and met my mother who was born and raised there. We had a multi cultural home so it was nice. I'm fluent in Japanese and in the English language. But what I didn't tell them is that my mother..... was a Jorōgumo a monster spider woman. Though she never desired mortal flesh like her family did. Yet she would spinal golden webs and magically turn them into money. My father and I  never knew about her until I was at least 12 years old when she told us and showed us her form before passing away from cancer. My father actually did know her secret but didn't care so he made sure I was raised to love humanity. Which I did anyways because of him and mom before she died. Yet when I turned 16 I gained my mothers jorōgumo powers. It took me forever to control the spider legs that comes out of my back but I managed. The gold spinning took some practice but I knew my mom would be proud of me. My father smiled as I got my powers under control and said it was time we moved back to America.

So that's why I'm here now.
