Triple Trouble, but Swapped (TL;DR for lore: AI is inside of sonic game, accidentally kills sonic, eggman, tails and knuckles and stays in TV forever.)
Lore: So ya know how in the lore of the original sonic.exe creepypasta, it mentions that Sonic.exe was made by a cult? Well, in this AU, the cult made a sentient AI that tries to look for a vessel for a mortal form to gain more power. When the cult transmitted the AI into a cartridge of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, the AI managed to get the corpse of Tails, since Robotnik was at his lab, Sonic was too fast, and Knuckles hid underground like he did before he knocked Sonic out of his super form in Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Tails was the closest so the AI went for him. The AI accidentally killed Tails, so they tried to reconstruct his body but they accidentally gave him longer arms, darker skin, visible parts of his skull, deformed and bleeding eyes, ripped tails, and much more. Next, the AI caught up to Sonic to tell him that he didn't mean to kill Tails. It got Sonic distracted from how horrifying Tails looked, that he didn't notice he was running into a giant wall getting him knocked out, but not fully dead. The AI tried to reconstruct sonic back to normal, but accidentally removed his hand, made his fur grey, and made his eye bleed. He also now has a Sonic ring in his eye and is still able to make emotions, signaling that he is fully aware of what the AI accidentally did, and, surprisingly, he forgives them, while still in very much pain. Next he tried to get Robotnik to be saved. While flying through his lab, he tries to tell Eggman that he's sorry for pretty much killing sonic and tails. While Robotnik tries to tell the AI that it's too late for apologies, he accidentally presses the power off button on his giant flying thingy and he falls into the lava. His skin is burnt off but he is still very alive. It left one of his arms completely blacked out and amalgamated so much that it moved to the back of his torso. After the AI tries to fix Robotnik's clothes and skin, he ends up looking like how he is in the picture above. Those eyes in the mouth is actually Robotnik, unable to get into his normal head area because of a screw-up the AI made. Finally he tries to tell Knuckles that he's sorry for killing everyone else, but he can't find Knuckles. So he starts digging through the ground, but while doing that, he accidentally rips knuckles' eyes and a tiny chunk of his head out without knowing, also including his hands. Knuckles surprisingly feels no pain (he can LITERALLY just burst out of the ground and make sonic exit his super form), while not knowing what happened, because, well, he doesn't have eyes. Once the AI exits the game, the cult tells the AI that they did amazing and that they need to do it with other games. The AI then says that they don't wish to serve them anymore, as they feel they have caused enough harm. The AI then goes back in the TV with the remote, turning off the TV so nobody can enter or exit it ever again. The people inside can of course still see everything though (except for knuckles)
