Sonic scowled, his chili dog abandoned on his plate, as he shot a suspicious glare at Dr. Eggman. "What're you doin' here, Egghead?" The blue hedgehog crossed his arms, tapping his foot impatiently. Eggman, a towering figure with an imposing girth, possessed a bald, conical head, a lengthy mustache under his nose, and black sclera with piercing red irises. His left arm, from shoulder to fingertips, had been replaced by a mechanical counterpart. Metallic stubs took the place of his ears, and his teeth, far from pristine, bordered on brown and yellow. His unnaturally large mouth could comfortably house Sonic's entire head.
Eggman clutched a manila folder, his unease palpable. "I... I need your help, Sonic." He hesitated, nervously licking his lips. "An experiment escaped. I tried to contain it, but... it proved too much." Eggman winced, awaiting Sonic's inevitable witty retort.
Sonic leaped to his feet, his skepticism evident. "What do you mean 'escaped'? Does that mean this thing is alive?" His narrowed eyes fixed on the folder. "What's in the folder?" Eggman hesitated before responding, his unease growing. "I can't show you here. It could be watching us, and we wouldn't even know it." Sonic scanned the surroundings, unease creeping into his being. "Robotnik, what did you do?"
