Name: Bella Marie Hedgehog
((Appearance: Bella is a petite 10-year-old hedgehog with soft, lavender-colored fur that gives her a gentle, almost ethereal glow. Her quills are long and meticulously gathered into a high, neat braid that cascades down her back, often swaying gently with her movements. Her most striking feature, however, is her pair of Hello Kitty glasses. These glasses, a thoughtful gift from Shadow, feature a classic wayfarer shape with a bright white frame. The right side is adorned with a prominent red bow, a signature Hello Kitty element, while the left side has three small black details that look like whiskers. The clear lenses are essential for her vision, but they also add to her undeniably cute and slightly studious charm. She typically wears comfortable, modest clothing, often in soft pastels or muted tones, chosen for practicality rather than flash, a habit from her past.))
((Personality: Bella is a sweet and gentle soul, often quiet and observant due to both her past and her reliance on her glasses. She possesses a deep well of empathy and a keen eye for detail, noticing small things others might miss. Though initially shy around new people, once she feels safe and accepted, her playful and curious nature shines through. She is incredibly grateful for Shadow's care and strives to be helpful and well-behaved, sometimes to a fault, as she fears being a burden or disappointing those she loves. She loves learning new things and is particularly fond of stories and quiet activities. Her bad eyesight has made her resilient and adaptable, relying heavily on her other senses and a sharp memory.))

((Affectionate Nicknames: "Bell" (Shadow, used sparingly but with warmth) "Kitty-Eyes" (a playful nickname from friends who adore her glasses))
((Signature Phrase: (Quietly, often after observing something or someone) "I see." (A subtle nod to her reliance on sight, despite its challenges, and her perceptive nature.))
((Trauma Backstory: Bella was born with a congenital condition that caused her eyesight to be significantly impaired from a very young age, gradually worsening over her early childhood. Her parents were exceptionally strict and held rigid expectations for their child, valuing perfection and self-sufficiency above all else. They viewed Bella's deteriorating vision not as a medical challenge, but as a flaw, an imperfection that reflected poorly on them. They believed she was "weak" and "incapable" of meeting their high standards, despite her earnest efforts. As her eyesight worsened, requiring her to squint and struggle with everyday tasks, her parents grew increasingly frustrated and distant. They saw her need for assistance as a burden.))
“I am Shadow the Hedgehog, the Ultimate Lifeform and the leader of Team Dark, which consists of myself, Rouge the Bat, and Omega.“ The Black-and-Red Mobian Hedgehog spoke softly as he introduced himself. “I am also a member of GUN: the Guardian Unit of Nations.” The Black Blur spoke in a calm, collected tone of voice.
“Is there anything you need?“ Shadow was physically 17 years old, but in reality, he was over 50 years old, due to having been put in stasis by GUN a long time ago.
His Friends: Sonic The Hedgehog, Amy Rose, Silver The Hedgehog, Miles Tails Prower, Knuckles The Echidna, Rouge The Bat, and E-123 Omega as They watched Bella fallen asleep on Shadow's Lap her glasses were placed on his pocket (In case She needs it when She wake up)
