    Summary

    “Easy, kid. We’re not here to hurt you,” one of the agents said, though the firmness of his grip betrayed his words.

    Sonic’s eyes darted around, looking for an escape route, desperate to keep his silent promise to Longclaw; but there was none. They lifted him effortlessly, carrying him towards a large, armored vehicle. The back doors swung open, revealing a sterile, metallic interior. Sonic’s mind raced with fear and uncertainty as they placed him inside and secured him with restraints.

    The vehicle roared to life, its engine a deep, menacing growl. As they sped away, Sonic’s thoughts were a whirlwind of despair. Longclaw’s sacrifice, the loss of his home, and now, being captured by these unknown forces—his world had been turned upside down.

     

    or: what if G.U.N. got an energy signal when Sonic first "landed" on Earth and was immediately brought to a G.U.N. facility, where he meets Shadow.
