A bright and colorful sunset spread across the sky. Today it was incredibly beautiful. But unfortunately not for one hedgehog. Metal Sonic walked limping in the distance. There were wounds and blood all over his body. The battle had not been easy for him, and he had failed. He was walking back to Eggman's base, which was a long way from here. As he took a few more steps forward, he collapsed to the pavement, unconscious.
