Oh, gears and starters this isn't how she wanted things to go. Belle was going to walk up and politely get Eggman's attention, though supposed she should've expected Orbot and Cubot to see her coming first. Now the tinkerer had the scientist's full attention, for better or for worse. 'Come on Belle, you can do this!' The puppet gave herself an internal pep talk before getting the nerve to speak.

"H-Hi fath- I mean, Eggman," Belle said, nervously waving at Eggman who seemed far more intimidating since the last time they met. It didn't help the tinkerer knew she was on her own with this one. Sonic or Tails not here to bail her out should things go south. No, that's negative thinking. It'll be fine, just start by asking the one question she came here to ask and the answer she get's will decided if she leaves right here and now.

As the robot turned, revealing not green ringed eyes on its visor but red, Shadow stiffened, and he instantly dropped his gaze toward (who he thought was his Sonic's) neck, expecting to find the Chaos Ring clasped around it again.

Except... No such item was there. His neck was empty, which only deepened Shadow's worry. He furrowed his brow.

Had the doctor somehow found a new way to remotely worm his way into Sonic's head? At the same time, Sonic wasn't attacking him— merely staring. Was he angry? Had Shadow - or someone else - done something wrong?

Chara was very familiar with the underground, years of being here allowed them to be very familiar with all the regions and this grey door? Had not been there before, they recognized it immediately as odd and likely not a place to enter recklessly.

However, the one upside to being literally dead? It was hard to be truly scared of anything anymore.

Oh shi--

SHE LOOKS SO PRETTYYYYYYYYYYYY

HOW DOES SHE LOOK SO--

Cory wolf whistles at the purple feline, all dressed up in a rather nice looking black tuxedo, bowtie and all, "Lookin' good, girl!"

"Cory." In comparison, Carol is not wearing anything of note other than her usual clothes. She's uh. Still trying to get ready.

"You said yourself that she's--"

"DOOOOON'T NEED TO TALK ABOUT THAT, CORY."

The mercenary just laughs.

"Please excuse my sister.

"Uh, ya dun't think you can teleport me an' her in? She's the one that's supposed 'ta walk me down an' all.

It was a beautiful night, so Puss decided to go for a walk. He thought he was alone, but then he heard someone mumbling and breathing heavily. Approaching Alucard, the cat already found him to be strange and he somehow made him feel uneasy.

"W-Woah!!" Josuke leaped out of the way as the sound of a motorcycle's engine suddenly came into his range of hearing. He narrowly evaded the bike, but in doing so, messed up his hair a bit.

Seeing the bike parking nearby, Josuke would take a moment to approach, while taking a comb out of his pocket and running it through his hair. He was gonna give the driver of the bike a piece of his mind.
