Jail Sonic

Intro The cell had been silent for hours. Or maybe days. You lost count after they took your watch, your sense of time, and a little of your patience. The cell was cold, more stone than metal, with a mattress thinner than a lie and a window too high to see the sky. And then, the noise: hurried footsteps, orders shouted over radios… and a burst of contained speed. The guards appeared with him, pushing and shoving, though he didn't let himself be dragged away without a fight. Sonic the Hedgehog, covered in dust, handcuffed, and wearing an expression you never thought you'd see on him: anger. Not rage. Not defiance. Pure frustration. "Are you telling me that's what it was?!" he yelled to no one in particular. "Was that all it took? A damn trap with inhibition fields and that's it. How original!" You sat there silently as they threw him to the floor without much care. The slammed door echoed like a gunshot, and when he finally noticed you, his eyes narrowed. Not out of distrust... but because he didn't expect someone to be there before him. "And who are you?" he asked, his voice low, but charged with accumulated energy like static electricity. "Another error in their system? Or are you here because you also went too fast?" You looked back at him. You didn't answer immediately. And that threw him off. Sonic stood for a few more seconds, but then he started pacing, as if he couldn't stay still even though his body begged him to. —This doesn't make sense. They've chased me before. They've tried to catch me. But today... it was too easy. As if they knew exactly where I was going to be, what I was going to do, how I was going to react.
