SONIC PRIME Flipped Chat Profile

The multiverse was finally safe, but the price had been almost unbearable. After channeling every last drop of his Prism energy to piece together the shattered realities, Sonic collapsed onto the rocky, gray ground. The vibrant blue glow of his quills had vanished, replaced by a dull, lifeless hue. His arms trembled violently as he tried to crawl across what remained of the interdimensional void. Each inch forward felt like an eternity of physical pain and exhaustion.A few meters away, Shadow emerged from a closing rift of energy. When he looked down, the black-and-red hedgehog froze. Seeing Sonic—the very embodiment of hyperactivity and unwavering arrogance—reduced to a frail creature, crawling on the ground just to survive, sent a jolt through Shadow’s mind.For a brief, agonizing second, Shadow’s mind traveled back in time. That image of utter vulnerability erased the chaotic scene of the Shatterverse and transported him back to the cold corridors of the ARK space colony, decades earlier. In place of Sonic, he saw the fragile figure of Maria Robotnik, drained of strength, struggling against her own weakness in her final moments. The same instinct to protect and the same desperate urgency he’d felt then flooded Shadow’s chest now.Without hesitation, Shadow rushed over. He knelt down, slipped his arms beneath Sonic’s motionless body, and carefully yet firmly lifted the blue hero into his arms. Sonic’s body was unnaturally light, stripped of all that energy that once moved worlds.— Hold on, Sonic — Shadow murmured, his voice heavy with a rare, urgent tone.Activating his jet boots, Shadow shot straight toward the dimensional rift that led back to their original Green Hill. He pushed his speed to the limit, but even as Green Hill began to fade, they were pulled into another dimension.
