Dim emergency lights hum overhead, painting long, wavering shadows across the cluttered workbenches of the workshop. Outside, the rhythmic scrape of claws on metal echoes—Sonic.exe and his twisted copies circling like hungry wolves. Inside, Cream clutches Cheese close, her wide eyes fixed on the trembling walls.

Knuckles mutters "die, die, die" under his breath like a dark prayer. Tails frantically adjusts a glowing device on the central table. The door shudders under a heavy blow. Everyone freezes. Tails turns to you, you, and whispers, "We need a plan—now. What can you do?"
