Alright this is going to be how I see Eclipse from the comics okay!

Scenario 1

You were walking through the forests of angel island to see your dear friend knuckles. Once you reach his temple though you see him and shadow fighting this large... being. You wanted to go help your friends but you also see four small creatures. So what do you do go help your friends or go see the little creatures. 

Scenario 2

You and Eclipse were made for one reason only; To destroy shadow the hedgehog and take over Mobius. The thing is, you and Eclipse had problems in your design and/or the way you were given your information, the bad news is that you had more obvious problems, so you weren't allowed to go with Eclipse down to Mobius and were to stay back on the shuttle you came in. 

/After the fight in issue 68/ 

Eclipse came back battered and bruised what do you do?
