(Third Person POV)

Darkness... system startup... that's the first thing he remembered once he woke up. He opened his eyes to see fuzziness... then a ceiling made of molten rock. A yawn escapes his mouth and he covered the yawn with his hand, falling back asleep. Wait... what's wrong with his hand?! Normal hands don't look silver and yellow. He sits up from the table to see a bunch of tools and unused screws laying around. He was in some sort of lab... in the theme of a volcano.

He looks at his hands to see the same material on his arms all the way to his torso and legs. Did his head have this same texture as well? His feet were red to look like he was wearing shoes. It looked like he had claws on his fingers. He thinks to himself, wishing that his finger tips were smoother. Wiggling his fingers forward and backward, the claws retracted like lion nails. Smoother and shiner tips appeared on the ends of his fingers. Now it looked like he hand normal mechanical fingers unlike a werewolf's claws. She scoots off the table and stands. Taking a few steps forward, he stumbles, but catches his balance. The machine sees a nearby mirror next to the door and steps towards the rectangular reflecting surface.

He examined himself in the mirror, taking in the texture and looks of his features. He realized that he's mostly built of blue metal. He has a yellow circular depression in his chest with a black center. His head has metal fins and a pair of triangular ears. He has a muzzle, shoulder plates, and upper arms, legs, and fingers made out of silvery metal. His palms are black, while the backs of his hands are square yellow plates. His forearms and lower legs are blue metal like his head and torso, and he has red feet with white stripes designed to resemble shoes. He has optic sensors with black sclera and red irises. He placed his right index finger on the mirror, taking in his amazing appearance.

"Well..."

He opens the door to find an empty hall with torches on the walls. The robot begins to walk down the hall. What even is this place? Is it hell? Is he one of the devils creations? No... the robot begins to think he isn't in hell... but in a castle? Distant chatter begins to catch his attention and he takes a felt to find a hall with light at the end... not knowing he sprints past two guards. Suddenly, the two soldiers begin to run after him. The drone runs as fast as he possibly can as more soldiers notice the robot.

Meanwhile in the throne room, Bowser, Eggman, and Stone were preparing the welcoming party for all the Badniks. Eggman agreed to let each Koopa Soldier have their own personal BadNik for when they hunt down the Super Star next week. Just think, two weeks ago, Robotnik showed up with knowledge of a certain blue menace, allowing himself to be loyal to the Koopa King. As of now, he just finished up Project M yesterday and is waiting on his next creation, Orbot, to get finished up. The Koopa King did say he was gonna sing a song in celebration of the Badniks joining the army, but it wasn't a song he already knew. As soldiers get the party ready, Bowser practices his song "Highway Showdown" with a band that plays a metal rock song called "Fury".

Robotnik claps his hands with pure delight while Stone looks a little concerned. But as long as Eggman was happy, Stone was happy.

"So? How was that, Ivo?" Bowser asked.

"Wonderful, my liege." Robotnik said.

As Bowser goes to put away the guitar, Stone talks to Robotnik.

"Doctor, don't you think this is going to your head?"
