Gamer peeked out from the opening of the cavern he was currently hiding in. He let out a quiet sigh of relief when he saw that the humans and mobians that had been chasing him had gone by. He then went deeper into the cavern. When he got far enough in that light from the entrance would be blocked out, he sat down and leaned against the wall. He had been avoiding both the police and his friends for 4 days. And it was because of a crime he didn't commit.

(Flashback; 4 days ago at Tails's Workshop)
Gamer was watching TV with Jasmine and his friends. Suddenly, the show they were watching was replaced with an emergency broadcast.

The announcer said, "This just in. Several banks have been robbed. Only one recording has survived, that catches the thief actually performing the robbery."

The image of the announcer was replaced by the inside of a bank. One of the other cameras gets destroyed by an energy bomb. Then a hedgehog with dark blue fur and black skin appears. At first, only his side is seen. But the extra long claws from the fingers of the gloves are clear, and so is the dark blue and black aura surrounding him. He then turns to face the camera. His eyes are glowing dark blue and he chuckles evilly. He then slices the camera in half, and the image vanishes.

The announcer said, "Sources say that the hedgehog seen was actually the Extreme Dark form of one of Mobius's former greatest heroes, Gamer the Hedgehog. Civilians are warned that if you see him, no matter what form he's in, to call the authorities. Attempts to get him alone will probably only make him mad, and turn him into the form caught on video."

Sonic got up and turned the TV off. Then everyone looked at Gamer.

Gamer stammered, "Th-that wasn't me. Not even in my E-extreme Dark form."

Selene said, "I don't know Gamer. The hedgehog in the video matched up with your Extreme Dark form perfectly."

Gamer said, "But I think I would know if I did that, no matter what form."

Amy replied, "I don't know. You seemed to have a bit of trouble remembering exactly what you did when you went back to normal."

Shadow added, "I believe that YOU believe that you're innocent. But, you might be mistaken. I'm sorry Gamer, but I'll have to turn you in."

Nebula finished, "At least until we know for sure it wasn't you."

Gamer shouted with tears in his eyes, "NO! I'M NOT GOING TO JAIL FOR A CRIME I DIDN'T COMMIT! GOODBYE!" He ran off before anyone could stop him.
(End Flashback)

Gamer sighed again as he pulled out a granola bar from his sack.

He thought, "And now, my life is ruined. I can't go home." It did seem like his life was ruined, because in the 4 days since, he's been either running or hiding.

Suddenly, he heard a voice say, "I'm glad I found you."

He looked towards the source of the voice and saw Jasmine standing there.

Gamer and Jasmine belong to me.
Nebula belongs to Nebula the Hedgehog.
Selene belongs to Selene the Hedgehog.
All other characters in this scene belong to SEGA.
