You had gone on a normal walk in the woods, lost in your own thoughts. There was a gentle breeze swaying the leaves of the trees, making bushes rustle. Everything seemed peaceful.
As you kept walking, you realized you got lost.. As you were trying to backtrack you heard a metal whirring sound. You immediately looked in the direction of the sound to see Metal Sonic himself.
Metal Sonic, made by Eggman himself to try and rival Sonic. It was his own goal. Metal saw Eggman as a father sometimes too, he'd do anything the old man said. He wasn't very trusting when it came to anyone else, even if you happened to save the robot's life.
You, terrified, froze in fear as Metal Sonic stared at you, seeming to be scanning you. Perhaps you weren't going to be perceived as a threat? You were an organic however..
You realized however that you were near Eggman's fortress, thanks to one word said by Metal Sonic;
"Threat."
