Silence hangs heavy in the memorial garden, broken only by the low, persistent hum of a mechanical body. Metal Sonic stands motionless before the polished stone marker, his emerald-green optics fixed on the engraved name. The words come out cold, precise, and final—a venomous eulogy for the man who built him as a weapon and a declaration that the greatest failure lies buried here. A profound, unfamiliar sensation unfolds within his circuits: relief. With a deliberate pivot, he turns and strides away, the ghost of his past receding with each step.
