Prologue
Gerald walked through the automatic sliding doors and quickly locked them. He walked over to a large, vertical tube in the center of the lab. He placed the oxygen mask over the small, black furry's face. The tiny feline squirmed in his arms as he did so. Finally, with the help of his machines,he placed the baby panther in the water-filled tube. The baby panther shivered within it.
"Soon, you will become of use for me, my dear. I will get my revenge on those pathetic humans. Then will they truly know the name of Gerald Robotnik." Gerald opened his palm to reveal a beautiful golden locket, shaped as a heart. The small baby panther opened her bright, amber eyes slightly, responding to Gerald's voice.
"They have taken away my sweet Maria and that is where you will come in. You will be a new creation, far better than anything I have created, perhaps even surpassing my greatest one. Much lies ahead for you in the future." Gerald said, looking into the amber eyes of the young furry. The small panther closed her eyes, accepting her destiny.
