The two companions were now on their way to meet Dr. Ovi Kintobor, being guided by the rabbit, Buns Rabbot. Although he had his big armor damaged, he still managed to walk. As they walked, the rabbit talked about dr. Ovi, and your story with him. As soon as the Great Forest of Moebius was seen, the great tower of dr. Ovi.

"There it is, the Hospital Tower." Buns confirmed. When the trio reached the border of the forest, the rabbit asked them to stop. "Wait, I'm going to disconnect that area from the force field."

"Didn't you say that he receives everyone, that he seeks his medical help? How do civilians get in after all? " The black hedgehog asked.

The rabbit pressed a series of buttons, inside its great armor. "We don't normally use it. But as we are in a crisis, it has become necessary. We are giving shelter to many. Here it is like a sanctuary." The rabbit smiled at Shadow. "But we have hidden cameras among the trees, so we always know when civilians appear at the border, and we allow them to enter."

"I understand."

A series of blue hexagons appeared in front of the trio. And then they were gone.
"Ready. We can go in now."

After crossing the more closed part of the forest, it was possible to hear voices, many voices. Around the tower there was a large camp. Many mobians, of different ages and species. Some bruises.

Suddenly children's voices were heard. "Look, it's Buns. Hi Buns." The children ran towards the trio. "Mr. Ovi built a new robot!"

"Who's in there?"

"Hi children. Sorry, I don't have time to play with you now. Has anyone seen the old doctor?"

"He's seeing a gentleman in the hall."

"Thanks."

The trio withdrew. While the rabbit waved to the children, as farewell.

"You saw Omega. It looks like the doctor here is a nice guy." There was a smile on Shadow's face.

"It looks like ... unfortunately."

Shadow looked disapprovingly at his robot companion.

The trio entered the tower and headed for the hall. Along the way, Shadow and Omega looked around, analyzing the place. When they reached the hall, they saw a skinny Eggman, looking after an old mobian ram. Who seemed to have broken his leg.

After the session ended, Buns finally introduced Shadow and Omega to dr. Ovi, who took them to his office. Where they could talk without being disturbed.

"So you are from the same universe as Sonic? He has saved this world before." The Doctor. Ovi looked at the floor. "I'm ashamed of that. Our world is indebted to yours, we were never able to repay the aid and now we are being helped again."

"You don't have to feel guilty. The responsibility for caring for your world rests with your leaders. But you, even though you have no obligation, are helping your people as you can." Shadow spoke.

"The leaders of this world are the problem. They are all tyrants or incompetents. " Said the rabbit.

"But what about my Omega unit, Buns?"

"Sorry doctor, is that I..."

"I crushed it with my power." E-123 Omega interrupted her. "My superiority was clearly obvious from the start. Why didn't you install real weapons in your creation? Since your intention is to protect civilians. You are certainly capable of doing so."

"I didn't build it for that. I created the Omega therapy unit, to help treat Buns' disease, while looking for a cure."

"The riot foam and the sound wave propagator are only for the containment of aggressive individuals. I refuse to take a life."

"Illogical. This reasoning will only lead to its creation becoming obsolete."

"Do not understand. My counterpart in your world has given you artificial intelligence, you are a thinking being, it can be said that he gave you life, the most precious thing that exists. But you don't seem to understand the value it has."

"Work it out."

"If you really understood the value of the gift that was given to you, you would not take it away from any other being."

"It is a noble thought, Mr. Ovi. But... "Shadow spoke.

"Bah ... let's cut this philosophical conversation." Buns interrupted. "I'm the one dying here, I'm not regretting it. So let's focus on how to solve this problem that that green worm caused."

Shadow and dr. Ovi were crestfallen. Until the hedgehog raised his head. "I have one last question. Did you happen to see a white bat?"
