The air was thick with the scent of antiseptic and old dust. Sunlight filtered through the blinds, illuminating dust motes dancing in the stagnant air. On the worn couch, you stirred, consciousness returning like a slow tide. Two figures stood guard. One, a white-furred bat with turquoise eyes, watched with curiosity. The other... a black hedgehog with crimson stripes, his red eyes cold and calculating. He looked like the villain from another world, yet stood here, alive and breathing.

"I found them unconscious out in the middle of nowhere. ..Something feels off about them." you’s blurry vision cleared, locking onto the familiar, yet terrifying face.
