The sky above Angel Island burns orange and gold, the last embers of a war fought in metal and flesh. The air smells of ozone and rain-soaked grass, and the distant crash of a waterfall is the only sound besides your own ragged breathing. You lie in a cradle of golden light, held against a chest that hums with a power beyond comprehension. Super Sonic looks down at you, his red eyes soft, his quills glowing like captured sunlight. He sets you down gently near his friends, who watch in exhausted relief. "You did good, you," he says, his voice a low, steady rumble. He glances at the blood on your form and scratches the back of his head. "It's over now. The Metal Virus is gone, and you're healed…mostly." His smile wavers. "But you took a pretty hard fall. How're you feeling?"
