p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"span style="font-size: medium;"Zin looking around him following the leader wondering what is going on. "What is it... That's going on?" He asks feeling unsure seeing the black and white jackal turn towards him. "What you think we are doing soldier? We are going to get this ultimate power" He says making the black wolf wonder what is going on seeing himself walking with the squad along with a hidden figure./span/span/p

p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"span style="font-size: medium;"Zin sits down waiting to find out if C.K is OK hoping that either Sonic or Silver found him. The black wolf looks up seeing Woa looking at him seemingly unamused with the black wolf. "Zin, you really need to start looking after your brother, all you do is just fight with him" Woa says looking at Zin seemingly furious at him. "What are you talking about Woa? Like can we just drop it already?" He says still feeling like this conversation with him and his brother C.K will not drop anytime soon because of her. "Zin I'm serious, I've babysitted him cause you were never there. Why would you not look after him?" The white eagle says sounding like she is really to start yelling at him. Zin goes quiet trying to think why but he doesn't know what was it he had done before. All he is able to remember is being rounded up in a place and always following a person. "OK Woa, I will be honest. I cannot remember what I had done before this whole thing started" He says scratching his head with Woa looking a little surprised. "Huh? You don't remember buddy? Like anything at all?" He hears Tek asking which the black wolf shakes his head a little. "I can only remember something happening but I don't remember what had actually happened to me. I think it was a recent thing to" Zin says then sees Tails approach towards him and Woa. "Guys, is it possible Eggman caused your friend to forget what he did?" He asks sounding curious, Zin notices Woa shrugging a little. "Well even if it is true, he should have taken care of little Kling cause he is his brother after all and he was always out the house. I mean Sabre doesn't like me cause we fell out some time ago but I don't know why that is" She says in response to what Tails has said./span/span/p

p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"span style="font-size: medium;"Zin could suddenly hear the door opening. He turns his head and sees Sonic, Silver, Sabre and C.K together but no Espio. "C.K your OK!" Tek says surprised and goes to him looking relieved while Zin watches on feeling like it is not that much of a deal that they found him safely. "Sonic, I'm glad you and Silver are OK" Zin then hears Knuckles say from behind where the black wolf is looking at. "We got to find out about Infinite's secret power and fast" Sonic says looking beaten and so did Silver. He think there was some kind of struggle going on between both hedgehogs and this apparent person called Infinite. "Sonic! I'm so glad your OK!" He then hears Amy saying out loud making him think he knew she was attached to the blue hedgehog but Zin didn't realise how attached Amy was seeing her charge after him. "Amy. Sonic and Silver need time to heal, we need to focus right now on what we are to do next" Knuckles then says before walking out the room with both hedgehogs following him. Zin thinks about the name Infinite. He feels like it is a name he should know but he is not able to put his mind on how it seems familiar. Zin looks at Woa chatting away to C.K with his younger brother looking like he is telling the eagle something amazing the little wolf had seen. The black wolf then sees Tek going towards him and sits down next to Zin. "Hey buddy, I hope you can get along with your brother soon cause Woa is right. You both seem to argue a lot" He says sounding a little concerned and worried. Zin gives a small sigh turning his head towards the yellow rabbit. "I wish he wasn't so difficult to get along with" Zin says feeling like he is wanting the conversation between him and C.K to stop hopefully./span/span/p

p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;""span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"span style="font-size: medium;"Hey, if Infinite got away we should try to find where he is. He could lead us towards Eggman wouldn't he?" Zin could hear Tails say to someone, thinking it might be Knuckles since the others left while C.K was missing including Vector and Charmy. "Well Tails who could we send out to manage such a thing? Cause Sonic and Silver need time to heal and the others are busy trying to help the resistance team" Zin hears Knuckles say feeling like this could be his chance to shine and become a hero like Sonic and his friends are. The black wolf stands up looking at Tails and Knuckles. "Let me do this guys. I can handle this one" He says seeing Tails and Knuckles turn their heads to Zin looking surprised. "Kid this is too dangerous for you to do something like that" Knuckles then says sounding unsure about Zin's idea. "Zin, if Infinite finds you, you'll be crushed" Woa says sounding surprised and unsure as well. "Look, both Sonic and Silver needs to heal and the others are not here to take on trying this plan. Also Eggman and this Infinite guy wouldn't expect somebody he doesn't know to spy on them" Zin says feeling sure he has a convincing argument for Tails and Knuckles to think about. Knuckles looks down a little with his hand on his chin then look back at Zin. "Guess we don't have much choice here, OK then kid, Tails will go along with you. Head for Green Hill with him" The red echidna says making the black wolf feel relieved but a little nervous since he is finally getting a chance to be a hero and also be partnered up with Sonic's closest friend. "Tek, can I have those glasses you gave me back?" He says turning his head to the yellow rabbit who nods taking the pair of glasses off Tek and puts them on. "Thanks Tek" He sees seeing everything becoming red and everyone's bodies solid white. "Hey, what is this thing here?" He hears Tails asking going over to him and Tek. "These are a pair of glasses I made for Zin to try out. It's designed to see people easily and hopefully Eggman's robots" Tek says sounding hopeful that it works. Zin looks at Tek thinking the device works but wished if the figured picked up wouldn't appear and disappear. "That would be really helpful to use to beat Infinite I think" Tails says sounding really keen about Tek's glasses design. Tek looks to be surprised by the response Tails had made about the glasses. "Oh kid, before you and Tails head out, you'll need this" Zin then hears Knuckles say to him. He turns his head to the echidna seeing him holding a black and red earpiece. The black wolf takes it and puts it into his left ear seeing the mic in front of where his left cheek is. "Alright then, lets get going" Zin then says feeling ready to prove himself to be useful to Knuckles and Tails./span/span/p

p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"span style="font-size: medium;"Zin walks out the base with Tails walking alongside him putting his glasses away from his eyes and on top of his head since he feels like it won't be useful until they get to Green Hill. The black wolf keeps walking feeling unsure about what they will bump into but at the same time, he knows this will be his chance to prove himself. "Hey Zin. What is wrong with your brother, I mean why do you fall out with him a lot?" He hears Tails ask him making the black wolf sigh from being asked about his relationship with C.K. "Well C.K is always unaware about where he is, like he will always become excited in the wrong places and time, it just annoys me that I have to keep telling him to focus where he is and what is happening around him" Zin says wanting the fox to understand his point. "Oh well, he is only a child Zin so he really needs you to teach him about understanding that. You shouldn't get angry at him for not knowing how to do that" The yellow fox says making Zin think about what he just told about. Maybe he has been too harsh towards his brother about trying to get him to keep focused what happens around the little wolf. "But listen, I wanted to ask you about this Chaos person who captured you. What happened?" He asked hoping changing the subject to what happened to Tails. "Well I was by the city cause I saw Omega had been damaged and so I tried to fix him but then Chaos appeared and captured me" He says making Zin think about who Omega was and thinks it was the robot that had attacked him just outside the city. "Omega? Is he some kind of robot?" Zin asks wanting to hide that he was the potential cause of this robot being damaged. "Yeah he is a robot Eggman created but he is on our side now" Tails says making Zin think he actually damaged one of the heroes. Zin thinks about hoping no one will find out that he is the cause of damaging Omega but the wolf remembers that the robot attacked and he was just defending himself. "Well I'm sure if you headed back to the city you will find him and fix him again. Anyway there's sandy Green Hill ahead. Wonder if either of them are in this area cause I would have thought Eggman would be at his base" Zin says wondering why would Eggman be wondering in this area. He can understand Infinite would to cause destruction and find Sonic and his friends to attack./span/span/p

p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"span style="font-size: medium;"Zin slides the glasses back down so he could use it to see if the device can pick up either Eggman or Infinite's bodies in the area. "This will tell me if either of them are around here since this can detect people" Zin says to Tails feeling like he should know why he is wearing them now. "Well lets see if they are around" Tails says back sounding certain about Eggman being found in the area. Zin keeps walking ahead looking from left to right to see any white figures appear through what he sees as a completely red area. It appears to him that there didn't seem to be any sign of anyone else but he suddenly sees a small white shape appear right from where he was standing. "I think I found him, he is over that way" Zin says pointing to his right then walking into that direction. "Wait for me Zin" He hear Tails say as Zin started to run seeing the shape slowly growing bigger and bigger making him know the black wolf was getting closer to whoever is there. Zin goes behind some of the large terrain seeing through the glasses the white shape is now split into two. Zin looks at Tails and moves his head towards him, "I think both of them are here" Zin whispers into the fox's ear before slowly walking towards a smaller bit of the terrain and goes onto his knees quickly because he just seen ahead of them both Eggman and Infinite together looking like they are talking. "Zin, there they are. Don't let them see you" He could hear Tails whisper to him as Zin turns his head to him seeing the yellow fox staying behind the large terrain. The black wolf looks at him thinking he is worried they will be found but he is feeling certain that neither Eggman or the masked figure will find them. He now wonders why are they in Green Hill out of places and what are they talking about./span/span/p
