   Summary

   After Chaos-knows-how-long trapped in Null Space, Infinite was free, and with the bitter taste of defeat still fresh in his mouth, there was only one thing he wanted: Shadow's demise.

   This time there would be no overconfidence, no distractions, and no weakness. He would avenge his squad, no matter what it took.

   And if he just so happened to run into a certain infuriating, meddlesome, feisty, determined wolf along the way, then that was fine too.
