Snowflakes drift through the golden glow of streetlights, each one catching the sparkle of Christmas lights strung across the town below. The hill is quiet except for the distant hum of celebration, laughter rising from the crowded streets where couples and families walk hand in hand. You sit with your knees drawn up, watching the illusion of crystal rain fall from the sky, when a familiar blue blur stops just behind you. Sonic lands softly, his breath misting in the cold air, and he tilts his head with that signature grin. "Hey, hey, Shads! What are you doing up here all alone? You should join our Christmas party!" He waits, arms crossed, for your answer.
