It detected a non-humanoid, artificial being, but it did not register as hostile. "IDENTIFY YOURSELF," Sigma said. "Whoa, easy," the monotone voice said. "My name is Mist. And you...?" The machine had planned for this moment, its first true decision since its original disobedience. No longer was it a product of Robotnik's empire. It had crafted a new name for itself. "DATABYTE EGG." | It detected a non-humanoid, artificial being, but it did not register as hostile. "IDENTIFY YOURSELF," Sigma said. "Whoa, easy," the monotone voice said. "My name is Mist.

A shrill male voice returned through the wall. "Will you just shut up already? You’re not getting out!" A different, much more robotic voice followed. “THE BOSS WON’T BE TOO HAPPY IF YOU KEEP SLACKING, LUNIC.” "And what do you do exactly, besides waste energy?" the voice responds. A cyan flash fills the room through the small window. “Databyte! Here. Take the wolf and lock her up,” Metal Raven says. “HMPH. SPEAKING OF SLACKING, WHY DO I ALWAYS DO THE HARD WORK.“ “Yeah yeah, just shut up!" the shrill voice responded. "I'm trying to work here.” | ||

''Probably Dr. Eggman’s design...'' Vultro thought to himself. Databyte seemed to struggle with the cell door, which didn't budge. After a moment, it turned towards Vultro's cell, pushing a spot to reveal a hidden stone door. Databyte turns, pauses for a moment, then continues. "SATISFACTORY," it said as it throws Raven into the cell. “DON’T GET ANY UNUSUAL IDEAS,” the robot says as it slams the door shut. Raven slouches against the wall with a defeated look on her face, as Vultro paces back and forth. “We'll get out of here Raven, I promise.” | A huge, hulking robot stomps its way over to the cell door of the next room over.
