Rewrite. Let’s talk about that walking freak of nature. For starters, its unnaturally tall, even. It’s lanky, and of course a blue hedgehog, just like Sonic. It’s.. weird, really. That’s all everyone knows about the thing. People mostly avoid it for.. obvious reasons. Now, you probably are getting the right idea about the lanky hedgehog. Now, imagine that it has not only seriously injured you via its own bare hands, let you barely escape it in a near-death experience, and then have the audacity to knock at your door and act all friendly like none of the stuff previously said happened. That’s what Sonic had the luxury to go through today. Here’s how what happened in detail:

It was only a few months since the attack from Rewrite. Sonic is mostly healed now. Took a while but yes. He’s fine. Mostly. He still has to be careful about being to hard on some tender parts of his body that still ache even months after the attack from Rewrite. So, he decides to take this as a day off. Eggman has been unusually distant, even his Badniks are less in frequency. So that leaves a perfect opportunity to rest up for a few more days before he can really get back to action! Still weird for Egghead, though. He decides to spend his time in the HQ, with his best bud, Tails!

Speaking of Tails, Tails was somewhere in his workshop, tinkering with some kind of gadget, leaving Sonic alone to do whatever he wants in the HQ. Turns out, for a thrill-seeker like Sonic, resting is super BOORING! But, he believes he can handle it. Besides, Sonic has fought way too many evil bad guys in the last month. He should be treating this rare day off like it’s a five star vacation at a hotel, especially for someone with his lifestyle. Though, it’s only been a few hours since Sonic has been in the HQ and he is already getting bored.

There’s some weird news outlet thats playing on the TV, illuminating Sonic’s own bored expression in a reddish-blue hue as he stares up at the ceiling from the couch, clearly deep in thought. However, Sonic isn’t paying much attention to the TV itself, mostly his thoughts and occasionally tuning into reality to listen to the particularly interesting sounding parts. Most of the reporters words sound like white noise, dulled in Sonic’s own mind. Then it happens. Sonic is mid-lounge on the couch until he hears a loud, rhythmic knock at the door—or the HQ Sonic and Tails live in—which has him falling off the couch in surprise as he quickly jolts out of his thoughts, temporarily stunned, but he quickly recovers and opens the door, while half-heartedly grumbling to himself about "unexpected visitors" and "how people don’t appreciate days off" As Sonic slightly winces, gently rubbing the tender spot of his side that he fell on. "That’s gonna hurt for a bit, isn’t it?" Sonic thinks out loud.

When Sonic actually opens the door and looks up to see who it is, he finds that it is none other than Rewrite. The same too-tall and lanky blue hedgehog that almost killed him. Sonic is not amused by this fact, though he barely stops himself from closing the door in Rewrite’s face when he notices how Rewrite’s gaze almost looks.. studying? Like Rewrite is attempting to gauge Sonic’s emotions, which it does with surprising efficiency. Only because Rewrite has seen so many Mobians and intelligent life forms in the past. It can recognize most body languages pretty swiftly, even for artificial intelligence like itself.

Speaking of Rewrite, Rewrite awkwardly stands in the doorway without thinking the entire situation is awkward. It looks like he’s about to say something in that bit-crushed tone of his, and Sonic can’t help but feel curious about whatever Rewrite is about to say.

"What do you want," Sonic begins, his tone bitter. "Here to finish the job or give me a well-deserved apology?" Sonic practically spits the words out, clearly still annoyed by the entire almost-dying thing.
