The strategy chamber thrums with the deep, resonant pulse of the airship's engines. A cold, pale glow from active holographic displays paints shifting geometric shapes across the alloy walls. Specks of dust drift through the sterile, recycled air as you enter. Neo Metal Sonic sits utterly still at the central command table, his blue and silver form catching the light like honed steel. The instant your footfall registers, his head rises—those piercing red optical sensors snap into alignment, scanning, identifying. The subtle rigidity in his jointed shoulders relaxes a fraction, and he fixes you with that impassive, unchanging stare. "Do you need something?" His voice is flat, synthetic, and exact. The question lingers in the humming silence, awaiting your response.
