"Mm-hmm. Yes, I believe you've got the gist of it," Silver said, giving Sonic at the same time an actual smile over his shoulder. "You can stop now."

Sonic could feel a small grin stealing onto his lips, despite his current circumstances feeling proud that he'd been able to fulfill what had been asked of him. Plus, he couldn't wait to try it out on Shadow...

"Right," Silver rose, clapping into his hands. "Get up, you lot. Lesson for today is over. You've all done very well and I'll tell your owners you behaved splendidly."

Manic actually looked pleased, which cheered Sonic a little bit up, even if Honey's still vacant stare let his anger rise again. But this would all end tonight. Not long to go, now...

"Oy! Doorman!" Silver called, his summons soon being answered by the spotted frog shuffling inside the room again.

"Yes? Want me to take these back?"

"The green one and the girl, yes. That one I'm keeping here," Silver announced, for the first time since the relaxing massage letting that feeling of dread return to the pit of Sonic's stomach. He watched with apprehension as Manic and Honey were led away, the brief look of good-bye from his new green-furred friend a small consolation. The hero of Mobius considered running away as soon as the heavy oak door fell shut.

"Well, there's hardly any reason for us two to stay in this oversized hall any longer. Let's move to something more appropriate," the metallic-hued hedgehog suggested, at the same time turning around and walking toward the smaller door he had come from earlier. Sonic was left standing there surprised at first, the idea that somebody was not forcing him to walk anywhere quite the novelty after a week spent as a slave of the castle.

Well, yeah, that or he assumes me to be broken enough so I wouldn't even get the *idea* of not following him.

Stopping himself at the last second not to catch up to Silver with super speed, the hero of Mobius jogged after him at a more sedate pace, cocking his head curiously at the inside of the smaller chamber the door led to.

It actually looked quite...homely.

"This is where I stay while I am at the castle, in case you wonder," Silver said as if he'd read his thoughts, waiting until Sonic had entered the smaller room containing nothing but a bed, a table, a chair and a chest in the corner.

"It's, uh, nice?" Sonic suggested, not entirely sure whether he was supposed or allowed to answer, but truthfully getting rather fed up with not being able to talk. Silver turned around.

"Right. Take off the rest of your clothes."

"Huh?" Sonic's eyes widened slightly, the hedgehog now alarmed. "Why?"

"Because I told you to. Lie down on the bed."

"What?" The collared hero now actually took a reflexive step backwards, unconsciously already shifting into a battle-ready stance. Silver didn't look aggressive, just a curious mixture between interested and serious, but that didn't particularly re-assure Sonic. Maybe it would be best if he vanished now...he could be out of this room before Silver even had time to think about blinking.

But then, instead of calling for the guards, the metallic-hued hedgehog merely raised an eye ridge.

"You're not really broken, are you?"
