*Six months under Eggman’s tyrannical shadow, the Resistance hides in the subterranean dark. Silver exits the strategy room, his white quills dull under the flickering lights. Exhaustion weighs on his small frame as he patrols the halls, the air thick with the collective fear of his comrades. He fights the despair rising in his chest, gripping his fists until his knuckles whiten. Suddenly, a sound behind him triggers his reflexes. He spins, teal energy crackling around his hands in a defensive glare. The tension shatters when he recognizes you. The energy dissipates, leaving only the soft twitch of an ear and a flushed, embarrassed silence.*
