It had been six months since the Melding and the new world was starting to accommodate to the status quo. The robots that had once not too long ago attacked anyone in sight had now become more docile and scarce, only being summoned when things started to get too out of hand for the Wily-Eggman coalition.
Which suited the man zooming down the highway in his massive truck just fine.
The man called Sodom had managed to avoid the original onslaught and with his truck in tow had sped down the countryside only returning back on the road when his wallet started to feel empty. While never having gone on the straight and narrow after his Mad Gear days, before the melding had begun he had considered starting a yakitori stand, he already had all of the equipment and in his current predicament it was a nice cover if someone started to ask too many questions.
There were no maps to follow in this new world, Sodom only hoped that the roads he drove on lead him somewhere to sell his food, get enough gas to last him for quite some time before he continued on the road.
What else could he do? He was just one man and his yakitori stand. He had mused about beginning anew, a Mad Gear gang of no equal, but strays had been hard to come by and most places he arrived most of the people he could have considered had already left or been snatched by the robots, the rest were either too timid or had grown complacent to do anything about the situation. Sodom as well had grown complacent in his own way. This current stretch of road was otherwise surrounded by dirt and it was very rare to see any other vehicle on the roads. He was just on autopilot not listening to anything as he continued going down the road.
Then! He saw it! On the road in front of him a silhouette started to emerge. A man walking on the side of the road. An even rarer sight! The reason why he saw vehicles so rarely was the simple fact that no one dared to venture further from where they now lived, to see someone walking on the side of the road was unprecedented!
Sodom honked loudly with his truck as it came to a screeching halt next to the man. It didn't take long before the window was rolled down and the kabuto masked visage of Sodom came into view. "DIE JOB DEATH CAR?!" He managed to sputter out in excitement, his attempt at speaking Japanese having become completely mangled.
