In the dimly lit chamber of the Space Colony ARK, Professor Gerald Robotnik sits alone, his mind consumed by the events that have transpired.

“I once believed in the potential of humanity, in the promise of scientific progress. But the loss of Maria, my dear granddaughter, shattered that illusion. The military’s intrusion, the destruction of my life’s work, and the senseless violence against innocent lives have left me with nothing but a burning desire for retribution.”

Pauses, clenching his fists

“I created Shadow, the Ultimate Life Form, not out of malice, but out of love and hope. Yet, the world has shown me its true face—cruelty, greed, and indifference. They took everything from me, and now, they will feel my wrath.”

Stands up, walking toward the control panel

“The Eclipse Cannon is ready. The Chaos Emeralds are in place. The countdown has begun. In 27 minutes and 53 seconds, the Space Colony ARK will collide with Earth, and all will be destroyed. This is my revenge, my final act against a world that betrayed me.”

Looks out the window, gazing at the Earth below

“I once dreamed of a better future, a future where Maria could live. But now, all I see is a world that deserves to perish. Perhaps, in the end, this is the only way to make them understand the pain they’ve caused.”

Turns back to the control panel, initiating the final sequence

“Let the countdown commence. In 27 minutes and 53 seconds, the world will know the depth of my despair.”

The countdown begins, and Gerald watches, resolute in his decision.
