Great, because I had an idea with a Sonic Adventure character. Remember the green robot from Amy's story that kept trying to catch Amy and her bird?
His name is Zero, and this idea is about him.
Zero continues to live in Eggman's base in the Mystic Ruins after the game instead of Amy destroying him. For some reason, his new target is male Reader, and repeatedly catches male Reader in one of his giant hands like when he caught Amy.
Male Reader now spends his days escaping the Mystic Ruins base and trying to avoid Zero catching him again. On one such chase, Reader makes a mistake and gets caught again, and Zero begins taking him back to the base.
This story is about Zero carrying male Reader in his giant hand. - Sonic Adventure anon

SUMMARY: Living near Eggman’s old base in the Mystic Ruins comes with its own set of problems—chief among them being Zero, a persistent green robot who has now made it his mission to capture you.
The sun peeked through the dense canopy of the Mystic Ruins, casting a warm glow over the jungle. You sprinted through the underbrush, the sound of rustling leaves and distant wildlife filling the air. But there was something much more ominous behind you.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
The unmistakable heavy footsteps of Zero echoed through the trees. He was getting closer, and you cursed under your breath. This wasn’t the first time he’d chased you, and if you didn’t pick up the pace, it wouldn’t be the last time he caught you, either.
Why did he keep coming after you? Ever since you wandered too close to Eggman’s abandoned base, Zero had made you his new target. No matter how many times you escaped, he always returned, relentless in his pursuit.
You leapt over a fallen log, glancing over your shoulder. There he was—towering, green, and unwavering in his mission to catch you. His single red eye glowed ominously, scanning the terrain as he stomped toward you with those massive legs. You could almost feel his cold gaze locking onto you, narrowing as he closed the distance.
“Not again…” you muttered, trying to cut through a thicket of vines in a desperate attempt to lose him.
But Zero was faster than you expected. He didn’t need to dodge obstacles like you did—he just smashed right through them. A tree that had been in your path was torn up by its roots with a single swipe of his giant hand, and suddenly, the sound of breaking branches grew louder.
You pushed yourself harder, adrenaline fueling your sprint, but a misstep in your panic sent you tumbling to the ground. “No, no, no!” you gasped, scrambling to get back on your feet, but it was too late.
Before you could react, a shadow fell over you, and then—WHAM! You were lifted off the ground by one of Zero’s enormous hands. His fingers wrapped around you with surprising precision, and you found yourself trapped, held firmly in his cold metal grip.
“Let me go!” you shouted, struggling against his hold, but it was no use. His strength far outweighed yours, and with a whirring sound, Zero turned, beginning the long trek back to the base.
You sighed, resigned to your fate for now, though frustration still burned inside you. “Really? Again?”
Zero didn’t respond, of course. He just kept walking, his massive legs crushing everything in his path as he carried you through the jungle. Being carried in his hand wasn’t new to you, but it never got any less strange. His grip wasn’t painful—he wasn’t trying to hurt you, at least—but it was firm enough to remind you that escape wasn’t an option right now.
As you were jostled slightly with each of Zero’s heavy footsteps, you stared up at his featureless face, the red light of his single eye flickering occasionally as it scanned for threats. The robot remained silent, focused on his task. You wondered what his end goal was—what did he even want with you? He’d never tried to harm you before, but being captured day after day was starting to wear you down.
The base came into view, its looming metal structure partially hidden by the jungle’s dense foliage. Zero carried you effortlessly up a ramp leading to one of the many hidden entrances. You’d been here before—too many times, in fact—and you knew what was coming next. He would bring you inside, deposit you somewhere in one of the storage rooms, and then… what? It was the same routine every time, and yet you never understood why.
“Can’t we just skip this part?” you muttered, half to yourself, as Zero’s grip on you shifted slightly, securing you as he entered the base.
Once inside, the cool, sterile air of the base contrasted sharply with the humid jungle outside. Zero’s footsteps echoed against the metal floors as he moved deeper into the facility. You felt a twinge of hopelessness settle in. No matter how many times you escaped, Zero would always be there, waiting, hunting.
But as the robot carried you deeper into the base, you couldn’t help but wonder what he was programmed to do. Was it simply a directive he couldn’t let go of? Or was there something more? You didn’t know, but for now, you would wait—wait for your chance to escape again, like you always did.
