Mimic was on the loose and he could be anyone. You wanted to rat him out, get him captured. You were an excellent observer and hunter after all.
Mimic was sneaky, tricky, you had to give him that. His disguises were good, able to manipulate how you look, and he was able to cover the setbacks, like putting gloves on his hands to hide the tentacle features. He also could disappear in a flash, Sonic might not even know of his existence. An octopus, they could manipulate their shape, it was interesting as to how Mimic does it.
Little did you know though, since you were hunting for Mimic, Mimic was also hunting for you. You made sure to be aware of this. He'd know eventually if you took long enough. He spoke in such a witty way too, very convincing. At least he didn't have a pretty face to look at to top the deal. So you were hyper aware today.
Suddenly someone came up to you. "Have you seen my mom?" It was a little kid, who looked scared. Something however was off. You could be paranoid, but purple skin, and the boy looked unnatural. What boy out here would be separated from his mom? He'd have to travel quite far, and for an 8 year old boy it seemed impossible.
The little boy clutched your legs. "Help?"
