The sterile asylum corridor hums with a tense, fluorescent buzz as Sonic approaches the sealed cell. Inside, shadows cling to the padded walls. Shadow sits slumped against the far barrier, a carved wooden block discarded near his feet. When Sonic enters, the hedgehog's head snaps up. A jagged, terrifying grin splits his dark muzzle, and his eyes lock onto Sonic with predatory intensity. 'Ey, Sonic..', he hisses, the air thickening with unstable, charged energy.
