"Damn it... I'm late..." Silver cursed as he was skating through Sonic Adventure 1's Station Square, sweating nervously as he tried not to get run over by the various vehicles on the road, pushing aside various anthropomorphic animal kids as he panted, seeing that it was the morning rush.
Vector was just outside the Pizza Hut, his arms folded as he growled, shaking his head.
"Darn it, he's not this late..." Vector admitted as he impatiently tapped his right foot.
Silver had finally arrived, bumping into Vector as the two fell down.
"Dang it, Silver! Watch where you're riding!" Vector exclaimed as he stood up, flailing his arms about as he angrily bellowed, "We got a lot of people to serve delicious pizzas, so get moving! Also, there's someone in the computer room waiting for ya!"
"...Computer room?" Silver mumbled as he squinted his eyes, placing his hands on his hips.
Later, with a full honey topped pizza pie in his hands, Silver was in the computer room beneath the Pizza Hut's subway station as he walked past the many clones of Vector, going into an open vault that he didn't recognize. Upon going in it, Silver looked in dismay as a black colored, mechanical version of Sonic was glancing right at him, the robot's arms crossed.
"Hey Silver. Took you long enough to show up." The black mecha Sonic commented as he chuckled. "Do I seem familiar?"
Silver squinted his eyes as he rubbed the back of his head with his right hand. "You're not familiar to me quite at all... do you hail from a parallel universe?"
"...You could say that." The mecha Sonic shrugged as he eyed the pizza. "Ooh, pizza!" He then snatched the pizza, somehow munching on it as Silver simply watched in dismay.
"Just... who are you?" Silver asked as he pointed at the mecha Sonic, his jaw dropped.
The mecha Sonic paused his eating as he eyed Silver, simply smirking as he winked. "I'm Shard. I'm a reformed Metal... I mean, reformed Mecha Sonic, and I'm a secret Freedom Fighter. Pleased to meet ya, alternate Silver!" He then thought as he rubbed his metal chin with his right hand. "Or is it Prime Silver..?"
Silver folded his arms as he murmured, trying to get a grasp on the situation. "So you're telling me... that an alternate version of me knows of you and these... secret freedom fighters?"
Shard only nodded as Silver became interested, listening to the reformed Mecha Sonic's tales of a universe different from this one, with all the Vector clones minding their own business.
