Metal Sonic: Menace or Mislabeled?

Moment of Truth

Metal Sonic's Pov

The doctor and I, along with our pink captive, had returned to our base. Per his instructions, I placed the unconscious hedgehog into a cell, doing my best to be careful given her condition. I then returned to my master to hear what exactly was the plan. I figured he was most likely going to use her as bait for the speedy pest, seeing as that's what usually happens when we take her.

"Well Metal, that was acceptable work. I suppose you've earned this," he said as he handed me something that would have made me smile if I had a mouth; a data chip that would finally let me speak. The old one I had was damaged when I attempted to rebel from the doctor and he said I would get a new one once I earned it. "Soon our plan can begin. I've secretly been watching them and it's clear that she is due any day now. Soon enough, she'll go into labor. Once the child is here, we'll keep it and raise it to be our ultimate weapon, given they surely won't want to hurt it. We'll be unstoppable. Now go guard her cell and alert me the second her water breaks."

I was very surprised, to say the least. I may despise that blue rodent, but this seemed too far, even if he is the source of my misery. Regardless, I knew better than to rebel, and did as I was told. Once I arrived, I took the time to install my new data chip. After a few minutes, it was finally working, which was around the same time the pink one woke up. My back was to her to guard the door, but from the corner of my eye, I could see her rubbing her stomach as she said, "It's okay little one. Daddy will come rescue us and we'll be a happy family, I promise."

For whatever reason, I felt weird hearing that. Silence followed for some time after, before I heard her lightly groaning in pain. I looked over and saw her holding her stomach. I silently messaged Eggman and was surprised and slightly worried when he told me I had to deliver the child. I tried to remind him I was not equipped for that, but he wouldn't listen to me, no surprise there. I went over to her and she naturally tried to shew me away. "If you want for you and your child to make it past this, it would be wise to let me help," I informed her, both of us a little startled by my new voice, especially since, even with the robotic aspect, it sound a lot like the stupid speedster. For some reason, it also felt familiar.

After quite a while, the little one was soon in my arms. A female hedgehog; purple quills with a peach stomach and arms like her father, pink bangs like her mother, and green eyes like both of them. I handed her over to her mother as I messaged the doctor that it was over. Right as I was about to send it, I saw Amy holding her daughter close, clearly happy to have her but worried for her safety. For some reason I felt a strong urge come over me as I deleted the message.

I've never felt such mixed emotions before; I was so happy my little girl was finally here, but I was sad Sonic missed it and worried what Eggman would do now that she was born. My thoughts were interrupted when I felt myself lifted off the ground. I was surprised to see I was in Metal's arms. He spoke with that new voice of his, "We don't have much time. The doctor will soon be coming to check on you. If we're quick and you don't resist, we may be able to get the two of you to safety."
