Knight Rider Special: My KR Fan-fic Universe
Posted: Fri Jan 18, 2008 7:29 pm
Now, I am sure most of you have read Knight Rider fan-fiction before and have seen cross-overs to an extent one time or another. But, this is one cross-over you probably never thought you would read.
HungarianKnight has read my work at Deviantart.com and is a big supporter of my material. He likes how I've stayed true to how Knight Rider was, but took it forward in the new age with a new young Knight, but the only Knight car as a Mustang in this is D.E.L.I.A. (a fan-character/car of my own) and KITT? KITT is as he has always been. A 1982 Pontiac Trans Am with the same personality, but just vastly upgraded.
Returning characters:
* Michael Knight: Now in his early 50's, Michael is occupying the very same position that his mentor, Devon, did for so many years and doing so with super efficiency. He still has his '65 Chevy Bel-Air even though the Knight Rider 2000 storyline is being completely ignored. Michael hand-chose Modo from the Foundation's training academy where Modo had been studying and training for 3 years before he became a local field operative in Nevada and then being promoted to 'Knight' Status in 2005. Michael has a similar relationship with Modo as he did with Devon in the 80's, like a father-son relationship.
* KITT: the wise-cracking, 80's old-skool Firebird is still riding up and down the country. His capabilities have been upgraded with access to the Internet, stronger micro-jammer, DVD player, music hard-drive and an xbox (as the series progressed). KITT's personality has really evolved and grown since he was first activated in September of 1982, but still has that same lovable charm.
I introduce another new characters for the series, one being a new Knight and the other being a modern-day version of Bonnie Barstow.
The new characters I create are as follows:
* Modo Antonio Jeda; a 25 year old 6" operative hand-picked by Michael Knight to replace him as KITT's partner. Jeda, originally from England, is motivated to work for FLAG by the loss of his girlfriend, Mara Hayfield, whom was killed by taking the bullet for Modo in August 2000 so that he may live. Modo is very much like Michael in the way of getting the job done and keeping the peace, but he doesn't give KITT as much grief as Michael and views KITT as his best friend and someone to confide in when he's at his lowest.
* Maria Lakeman: The new mechanic at the start of KRS is a 25 year old girl that I based off Jessica Alba named Maria Lakeman. Not as cold to Modo as Bonnie was at times with Michael, but she does put her foot down when necessary.
* D.E.L.I.A. is a 2005 red ford Mustang GT. DELIA is an abbreviation for the Divine Elegant Logical Intelligent Automobile. When I set out creating this new Knight car I wanted to make her stand out from KITT, as going for another Trans Am would just be too predictable. So, I chose the Mustang, because it just suited her. Her scanner is mounted behind the grill (unlike the new K3000) and is blue (althought HungarianKnight maintains it's purple from his picture he did for on DA), has a dash morealess the same to KITT's (classic) but is black with red-trim.
* Amelia Lee; a 19 year old 5"5 brunette with a mysterious past that is not known a great deal of in Special. Despite being a bit of an air-head and extremely energetic, she is very committed to her love and mission of justice and law and order. Amelia is DELIA's partner.
Note: I am aware that there was a game called Knight Rider Special, but I did not know this at the time I was writing the series. In fact I only found that out after I wrote 'Prime Knight', just over a year after I started the series.
Here are the Specials so far.

In regards to the dialogue I try to write for KITT with lines that he would most likely have said when interacting with his partner/driver (in this case, my character). That and I've seen Knight Rider more times than I could count, I know the characters fairly well, so it wasn't hard to write for them.
And as for what it's a cross-over with? Now, that is something you shall find out when you read it.
I can promise you two things:
1: It's a cross-over you never saw coming.
2: If you give it a chance, you will love it.
One of the fans' faves of the series (yes, I have fans of this fan-fic) is 'Knights out of time'. I won't say why too much as I try not to give away too many spoilers these days. But, let's just say it's one of the few times where the future meets the past.
Other things you can expect:
* Old faces you never saw coming back.
* Characters you never thought could interact with Knight Rider.
* Good stories with each Special.
* And quite a few stories that have never been tried with Knight Rider before.
Anyway, I think I have been self-promoting my fan-series long enough. I'll let you decide what you think of it.
Good night from the Knight.
