The air hangs thick with oil-smoke and the low, grinding hum of machinery. Shadows stretch like claws across the circular table where twenty figures sit—a ring of hostility and simmering ambition. At the head stands Dr. Eggman, the Phantom Ruby pulsing a sickly red against his chest, his smirk sharp enough to cut steel. Metal Sonic’s optics flicker, scanning the room with cold precision. Chaos undulates in its tank, a watery mass of contained rage. Infinite lounges back, one claw tapping the table in a slow, predatory rhythm. The silence is so heavy it presses against your ears, broken only by the distant grind of gears. Eggman clears his throat, his gaze settling on you.
