Big City Mouse emerges from an alleyway, tells the group that Harambe is dead, and then stabs Sonic.

Big City Mouse had skittered back down the alleyway from which she came by the time Sonic hit the ground.

"Sonic!" Combine called out as he rushed to the hedgehog's aid. "We need to find help!"

"No, no," Sonic grunted as he stood up. "It's okay. I don't have internal organs. It'll heal just fine."

Combine used his hands to help steady Sonic "You don't have... okay, well that's good. In that case we should get the knife out."

Sonic looked down at the knife. "No, it's plugging the wound. Pull it out and I'll die of blood loss."

"You have blood?"

"Why wouldn't I have blood?"

"You said you have no internal organs."

"Yeah but I have blood."

Combine stood up straight, confused. "Blood that gets pumped by...?"

Sonic looked at him, appalled. "That's a very rude thing to ask a lab-bred creature."
