So this won't be a story pitch but a pitch for bringing back the Freedom Fighters
So for Sally she's basically the same as Post-Genesis Wave Sally, she's the princess of the Acorn Kingdom on South Island, she and Sonic dated for a bit but split apart, but they are still friends.
Now for Nicole, she is once again just like her Post-Genesis Wave self, and she sort of has the same semi-canon nature as Whispangle.
Now for Rotor he's a kind laid-back scientist who is fascinated in medical technology (gotta make him as intelligent as Tails in a different way).
Now for Antoine, he was an old friendly-rival to Sonic who had a crush on Sally but has since moved on and married Bunnie.
Speaking of which it's time for my favorite Freedom Fighter, and the one I have the most to say about, Bunnie.
Now Bunnie was born with a lesser version of Neuro-Immune Deficiency Syndrome (the disease Maria had but it's not fatal for her only making it hard for her to walk and making her clumsy) then the metal virus happened and she got infected, However the virus surprisingly cured part of her disease, but because of her illness it took longer for the virus to fully infect her and by the time the Virus was destroyed it only infected her left arm and legs, so Rotor developed a robotic armor for her infected limbs (which resemble her limbs from Satam) which prevented the virus from spreading.
Let's hope that the Witnesses of the Metal Plague don't find out about her.
Credits to КайСмит for coming up with the new name.
