#(Fun Fact: Klonoa's name comes from the words Kuro and Noir...)

"So, you're the new kid, huh? You like an evil version of that cabbit kid or somethin'?"

"I'm known by most as 'Nightmare Klonoa,' but I'm not a fan of that name. It makes me feel like a shadow of that stupid Dream Traveler..."

"Eh, I feel ya, kid. I used to be known as 'Evil Sonic' or 'Anti Sonic.' But then I got a power boost from the Master Emerald and gave myself a new identity. A real Scourge, you might say.

"So why don't you do the same? Discard that Nightmare Klonoa name, and become your own man! You don't have to live in that Dream Traveler's shadow! Surpass him! Become somethin' better! So, who do I have the honor of meeting now, new kid?"

"...

"Heh... You can call me 'Akuro.'"

"Akuro... I like it! Well, nice to meet ya, Akuro! Look forward to workin' with ya!"

"The feeling is mutual, Scourge!"
