You feel something start to shift you from your stasis… a rumble… the water begins to drain from around your form.

A mustached man in a lab coat stands outside the pod, a clipboard in hand. It’s Gerald Robotnik. Beside him, a blonde girl, bouncing, excited to meet you.

As the water completely drains, the glass of the containment pod opens, and the man speaks.

“Welcome to the world, Shadow the Hedgehog.”
