[The trio listen intently and their expressions darken as the explanation goes on.]

Ugh. Real crummy of him to use us against you guys. Sorry about that.

[Not that it was really their fault, but still... getting knocked out cold was bad enough, but being used as bait really sucks. Sonic falls silent afterwards to let Void Archives finish.]

Don't know about the "Neo" part, but Metal Sonic's an enemy of another version of me in another world. Made by Eggman and supposedly really loyal. Not really sure why a guy like that'd be doing all of this?

[He looks to Tails and Knuckles to confirm and they both nod. This is what they heard from another world's version of Sonic, anyway.]

Can't say I was expecting this one. Sounds like you guys really had a rough fight on your hands. Sorry we couldn't do more to help.
