An angry, female, scarlet-coloured hedgehog stood before them but his was no ordinary hedgehog. Giant canine teeth, large pointy ears and a long bushy tail that was slightly darker than the rest of her body. The one thing that stood out on her though were her sharp, bright yellow eyes that seemed to glow.
She stood there restrained by Sleet glaring at Robotnic with those bright, sharp eyes.
"Ah… Duma!" Exclaimed Robotnic with a devilish smirk spreading across his face, "Could you quit the wolf song please?"
Duma glared harder at him with a look that said 'One more word and I'll kill you'. Suddenly she let out a long howl that caused Sleet to let go of her from the sheer volume of it. She took this opportunity and leapt into a nearby air vent, escaping, much to the horror and annoyance of Robotnic and co.
The hedgehogs didn't think twice to follow her but getting up to that air vent was harder than Duma had made it look. It was clear her legs were built for large jumps and fast running. Eventually Sonic ran with his siblings up the wall instead of trying to jump in. They heard the faint sound of Robotnic's voice yelling 'GET THEM!' and ran as fast as they could towards the exit for they knew that that was probably where she was heading for.
Sonic eventually caught up with her but to his surprise, she was nearly as fast as him!
"Wow, you're fast." Exclaimed Sonic looking at their sister yet avoiding eye contact, "We're the Sonic Underground. I'm Sonic and this is Manic and Sonia."
Duma looked at them darkly and turned around to leave before Sonia put a hand on her shoulder.
"We're here to help." She said, watching as Duma turned round once again to look at her.
Duma smiled slightly showing off those long, sharp canine teeth and took Sonia's hand, "You smell good but this guy smells like chili dogs."
The Underground laughed and led Duma to the Underground shelters. Suddenly Duma began to lead the way as if she knew where to go.
"So I guess we're a pack now." Duma said smirking showing off those teeth once again.
"Pack?" Asked the Underground confusedly.
"Yeah, it's kind of a family or group." Duma explained looking at them and then up at the sky and then howling.
"How do you do that? It's beautiful." Sonia said smiling at her.
"I've always done it, I know my mum and dad taught me but even though mum wasn't wolf, she was always the best teacher. Basically, you want to start with saying ooooh and make it wave about a bit and then make it higher pitched and look at the moon. It works best at night-time because otherwise you won't have the moon to howl for." She explained.
Sonia looked up at the sky and thought 'the moon will be full tomorrow; I wonder what we should do with her.'. She shrugged off the thought and continued with her sister to the underground shelters.
