Have a SatAM Character (I KNOW RIGHT?)

[letsdoit2it]

[Well, here's a fresh face. Sally Acorn is stuck in Knothole--in a sense. The snow had come down overnight, leaving a blanket of white over the entire village. Initially she had considered heading an effort to clear it out that morning, but when she had woken up and peered out the window, she saw several Freedom Fighters frolicking, snow-fighting,

[But snowballs are so fun!

Well, when Sonic spots Sal, he'll juice on over. Don't worry, he's not gonna fire a snowball at the window! Instead, he'll just knock on the door.]

[letsdoit2it]

[Sally turns and peers her head out the window, calling to the hedgehog.]

You know it's open, right?

[waypastcool]

[Oh, Sal. Sonic laughs, turning towards Sal with a smirk.]

Hey, I didn't wanna barge in.

[He shakes his head.]

What are you hangin' around in there for, anyway? Aren't you gonna come out here?

[letsdoit2it]

[Wry smile.] I'm partial to the cozy warmth of my hut, thank you very much.

[And the tea was almost ready, besides.]

You sure you aren't cold, Sonic? You look a little blue. [Yeah, she went there.]

[boticized]

LOCATION: KNOTHOLE VILLAGE_

STATUS: INTACT. NO SIGN OF DESTRUCTION_

... ... ...

INITIATING COMBAT PROTOCOLS...

[Amidst all the snow and ice, a robot is sure to stand out. But this 'bot is no SWATbot, stealth bot, or buzz bomber. No, there's something a bit... unsettling about this poor, unfortunate hedgehog.

Maybe it's the fact that he looks familiar. Or the fact that he's rapidly approaching Sal's hut, eyes aglow.

Or maybe it's his voice, which sounds an awful lot like Sonic's if you drained the attitude out of him.]

TARGET SIGHTED_

[Click. Bzzzzt.]

Surrender, Freedom Fighter!

[letsdoit2it]

[How did a robot get into Knothole?! Sally quickly ducks below her window and pulls out NICOLE.]

NICOLE. [Sally keeps her volume at a minimum. There's plenty chance the thing would make its way into the hut...which, unfortunately, was the better option versus it going on a rampage throughout the village.]

Accessing data feed...target has been identified: Sonic the Hedgehog.

[Sally gasps.] Sonic?! [She pokes her head back out of the window.] Sonic!!

[boticized]

[Bzzzt. For a split second, the robot grabs his head, cringing at the sight of her.

He can't... do this to Sal---

After a second or two, he continues to charge, stopping only once he reaches the window. He smirks, but it's more evil and twisted than one would expect from Sonic.]

Hello... Sal.

[letsdoit2it]

[Sally's eyebrows arch at the dubious address from this impostor.]

What have you done with Sonic?!

[acunninghoax]

[Welp, there appears to be someone strange wandering around the village. Given the dusty old hat and boots, chances are he wasn't in the best of shape.

Heh. Well, this'll be interesting. He'll go ahead and mosey on over to the window, looking totally lost.

Gotta make a good first impression, after all.]

Say, toots, ain't this supposed to be the Great Forest?

[letsdoit2it]

['Toots'? Okay, Sally wasn't one for formalities, but she wasn't sure if she liked things that casual]

That is correct. [Sally remains cordial, but still, this fellow doesn't look too hot.] Have you lost your way?

[acunninghoax]

Could say that.

[He takes off his hat long enough to brush off some of the dust. So far, so good.

Fang glances around. No hedgehog? Perfect. And this Sally seems pretty clueless; handy tidbit there.]

Had a run in with a couple of 'bots. Nasty buggers. I'm sure you know all about them.

[letsdoit2it]

Do I. [Sally glances to the side with a look of disdain, but quickly returns back to the weasel with a hospitable smile.]

Glad you were able to make it back here safe, stranger. You've made it to Knothole. I'm Sally.
