Prototype opened her eyes and looked out where he was directing her. As she did her shining golden eyes became normal, like that of a natural hedgehog again, with her purple pupils. She was silent a moment.

For a split second, there was nothing. Darkness clung to the sky tightly, and the trees were covered with shadow.
However, there was a flash of light on the horizon, and streams of violet and orange became visible from that location. The sun, in its beauty, peaked up at the horizon, and within thirty seconds one could see the entire thing. The lands below were bathed in the light of the dawn, glowing with an odd yet magnificent hue.

Prototype did not move, or look away. After a moment she spoke. "What is it?"

Ivan was slightly caught off guard with the question, and coughed a bit before turning to Prototype. "It's... It's the sunrise! Have you... Have you never seen a sunrise, Prototype?" He looked back over the land, a smile unable to leave his face. "This place... It's really beautiful. Especially at moments like this, when everything is quiet, and the world is just waking up. Sometimes, I wonder if this is what the world would be like if all fighting stopped. I wonder if this is what the Doctor would wish for the world to be like all the time..."
(OOC - No Ivan, probably not. |D )

"There would be no fighting if the doctor ruled, and yes I have seen sunrises but..." She did not finish that thought, only stared out with her real eyes.

Ivan briefly looked at Prototype, at first blinking in the shock that her eyes had changed, but then following her gaze back to the scenery. So beautiful... Maybe someday, everyone would see the world this way.

"Why is it... That the sight of this makes me feel odd?" She glanced at Ivan. "I didn't think sights could do that..."

"Odd?" Ivan turned to her, blinking again. "Well... Ah! I know! This must be the first time you've seen something like this!" He gestured to the scene below and continued. "You know, it's often said that things like this are beautiful, even magical in origin... But really, the beauty of it all tends to catch people of guard, no matter how many times they've seen it." The echidna shut his eyes as he smiled, the sun now hitting them. "It's one of those things that can't be explained really."
And yet he said he knew...

Prototype simply nodded and said no more. Her mind was slowing down, moving less at the speed of a computer and more like the speed of a hedgehog that her other half was made up of. Her biological, natural half.

After a few minutes, Ivan stood up. "Ah... Should we head back now? I don't think we really told the doctor we were leaving after all, ahahaha..." He probably should have done that now that he thought about it...
As he stood, a glint in the leaves beside Prototype caught his eye, and Ivan blinked. "...." What was that...?

"The..." Her eyes flashed back to glowing yellow, and she looked around as if lost. "Yes the doctor. I need to return, incase my services are needed."

Ivan nodded, moving to show her where the leaves were. "We can get down quickly with these, I'll- Ahh..." The flash from whatever was there blinded him slightly, and the echidna shook his head.
"Heh... Something is in there..." He'd honestly thought that it was a trick of the light at first...

"Something is in where?" Prototype looked to him confused.

The echidna pointed over to where the flash was coming from. "Something shiny is in the leaves there- It wasn't there before I don't think.."

Prototype's head turned that way and she went over. "I fail to see the importance of a shiny object in this tree..." She paused. But it was close to the doctor's base... She may as well investigate just in case... She walked towards whatever it was.
