p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-US""Oh! Uhh, is this thing on?" A purposely irritating and nasally Salamander asked, to the recording camera. "Uhh, Okay, so, this is the test of my, uhh, Flying camera… Vlog? I-I heard that "vlogs" are basically-" He cut himself off, seemingly hearing something, turning his head towards the back top corner of his little house. He nodded as his frills, blue and white scales and whole body seemed to melt away into a bright silver metallic sheen. The liquid metal re-shaped itself into a robot with smooth metal plates and spines on his arms that somewhat resembled sleeves, "Finally, that irritating AI can't watch me anymore." He muttered, snapping his razor-sharp metallic claws as the camera began to rise.
"NMS Log, Number: Two, I will be using this invisibility enhanced stealth drone to follow me on my excursions. It has been two months and sixteen days since I last reported, I apologize, to whoever this may concern, including myself, for that annoying person I have adopted, it was a mistake on my part, but I cannot remedy it, so you will have to bear with me, for now." He explained, standing and pacing around his room, before lifting the poster of the Freedom Fighters hung on the wall, he turned towards the camera, "My persona, which I dubbed "Simon", is a fan of the Freedom Fighters, I am simply showing the part." He explained, as his fingers melded into the keyhole, which was the only way to unlock it. He extracted an ornate vial which contained what appeared to be shifting, sentient shadows. "Behold, an entity I have discovered with properties immensely close to The Source of All." NMS explained, as the drone hovered, circling the vial, examining It from every angle. "You will be the first beings to observe the test run" he explained, gesturing towards the emerging metal sonic shell, "I discovered this from a battlefield from the Freedom fighters, I reassembled this destroyed machine, without it's master control chip and it's power source, I believe this unique liquid can function as a substitute power source, I have rigged this broken Metal Sonic with adapters capable of draining energy matching this liquids frequency, watch closely, now." He ordered whoever was watching the documentary.
He slowly and carefully, lowering the vial into the machine. A second passed, a moment, a minute, eventually, a finger twitched there, a foot tapped on the ground, slowly, shadowy smoke seeped from the joints of the machine, wrapping itself around the robot that clenched it's fists and drawing it's limbs into itself,, before suddenly throwing itself to the ground, it's engine sputtered and spun in jagged and twitchy circles it's internal functions made a sound that severely resembled growling, the shell floated off of the ground, it's eyes flickering to life, the iris appearing red at first before a toxic green seeped into dominance, like a poison stuck in a liquid, seeped into the LED's, it landed, stumbling as NMS actually stepped forward this time, catching the convulsing subject. It's head fell limp, despite the head having been firmly propped up. The machine finally spoke, in an eerily smooth voice, "… … Seriously? A hedgehog, again? No, this is…" It asked, feeling the spines on it's head and examining it's claws. "Greetings, Metal Despair, welcome to consciousness." NMS said, "End of Memory log, Number: two. /span/p
