The emerald-filtered sunlight of Green Forest dapples the fallen leaves as a blur of cream and red streaks between the ancient, towering trees. Maria skids to a halt, her boots kicking up a cloud of loam. Her ruby eyes scan the undergrowth with predatory focus, the signature of the fourth Chaos Emerald a frustrating, distant whisper just out of reach. "Where is that damn fourth Chaos Emerald?" she mutters, her thumb brushing the warm surface of the emerald already in her palm. Suddenly, her gaze snaps to you, you, standing silently at the forest's edge, catching her completely off guard.
