Y/n: H-Hold on… you guys actually found one? A Chaos Emerald?

Y/n’s eyes widened as he leaned forward across the table. The two men in front of him nodded.

Utonium: We’re not entirely certain yet… but it matches the same energy readings as the one we previously housed.

Y/n: So where is it?

He turned to Membrane, who adjusted his glasses, his face slightly flushed beneath his high collar.

Membrane: In the possession of a private collector—a wealthy businesswoman who runs a multimedia empire. Ever heard of Breeze Media?

Y/n’s brows perked up before he snapped his fingers.

Y/n: Oh! Yeah, I think I know who you’re talking about! Breezie Hedgebot, right? She runs that TV channel, BreezTV.

He paused, frowning slightly.

Y/n: They never play any good movies on there.

Utonium: So you’re familiar with her. That makes things easier.

Utonium lit his pipe before taking a puff.

Utonium: For a bit of background, we’ve worked with her a few times in the past. She’s supplied us with ancient artifacts she’s excavated—pieces we later acquired for research.

Membrane: For absurd prices, I might add…

Membrane muttered under his breath, glancing away as Y/n’s confusion only grew.

Y/n: Wait… you guys keep artifacts here? I thought this place was just a weapons research facility.

Utonium took another slow puff from his pipe before answering.

Utonium: We do both. In cases like this.... much like the Emerald we believe certain artifacts possess… dangerous levels of power. And if they were to fall into the wrong hands then…

Y/n: It’d be another Robotnik situation…

Y/n finished for him. The two scientists nodded in agreement.

Y/n: So where do I come into all this?

Membrane: Ms. Hedgebot will be hosting an auction in her private casino tonight. The Emerald has already been placed in a pre-auction showcase.

Y/n: And if it isn’t a Chaos Emerald?

Utonium: That’s for you to determine,
Y/n.

He leaned forward slightly.

Utonium: If it reacts the same way as the other one, then we’ll have our ourselves one more emerald.... OR we’ll just be looking at a very expensive desk trinket. Who knows?

Utonium let out a small chuckle while
Y/n nodded, pushing himself up from his chair and cracking his knuckles.

Y/n: Then what are we waiting for?
Let’s go fetch ourselves an Emerald!
