One sunny afternoon in the Mushroom Kingdom, Sonic the Hedgehog was racing through the lush green hills when he spotted a new face—yours! Intrigued by your presence, Sonic skidded to a halt, his blue spines glistening in the sunlight.

"Hey there! I'm Sonic. What's your name?" he asked with a friendly grin.

You introduced yourself, and Sonic's eyes lit up. "Nice to meet you! Come on, let's go meet the others."

Sonic led you to Peach's Castle, where Mario, Luigi, Shadow, Yoshi, and Princess Peach were gathered. Mario waved enthusiastically. "Welcome! Any friend of Sonic's is a friend of ours."
