All the fairies and sparrowmen in Pixie Hollow had woken up earlier than usually, preparing for winter. Sonic and his band were repeating in public while the others were working, since all their friends were their fans. Even Vidia. Their last song was:

We'll be there
at the first breath of spring
When the birds start to sing
and the grass starts growing

We'll be there
in the still summer heat
When the meadow's gleaming gold

We'll be there
on the crisp autumn days
With the leaves all ablaze
in the cool breeze blowing

We'll be there for it all every year
As we've been since days of old

For what if the world is wider
than we ever knew?
And through all the seasons
didn't we dream of something more?

What if we brave the great unknown?
What if we're not so all alone?
What if it's you I'm searching for?

Sonic: "Thanks, Pixie Hollow, we're here all week!"; (thinking to himself): "Except when working with the rest of the Tinkers, playing Hero Rising or saving you as Aaron Stone, Stark Reality and Terminus Mag"

However, it was time they returned to the Tinker's nook. As much as Sonic loved to sing, he had work to do.

About an hour later:

The Tinker fairies were preparing the baskets for the snowy owls. Rosetta was on a break and decided to pay them a visit. The reason why was obvious. She approached Sonic and Silver who were working on the same basket.

Rosetta: "Hi"

Sonic (taken by surprise, trying not to blush): "Oh, hi Rosetta". He tried to get close to her without noticing that his hands were stuck in the basket.

Silver: "Oops! Sorry about that". He untied Sonic's hands from the basket.

Rosetta: "Where's Shadow?"

Sonic: "Gathering materials"

Just then, Shadow came back.

Shadow: "Hey Rose! What did I miss besides Silver accidentally tying Sonic's hands like he does every time?"

Rosetta: "Not much"

Tinkerbell came up to them.

Tink: "Hi! You won't guess what Bobble did"

Sonic: "Let me try: he got his hands stuck in a basket because his working partner wasn't paying attention"

Tink: "How did you know?"

Sonic (looking at Silver): "Been there, done that"

Silver: "Why are you looking at me?" After a moment of thinking: "Oh, right. But come on, I usually tie your hands ten times a week and this was just the third time."

Shadow: "It's Tuesday"

Just then, Fawn and the animals almost crashed into the basket.

Fawn: "Sorry! I'm having a quite hard time trying to get these little guys to the border"

Tink: "The border?"

Fawn: "Yep. Why?"

Tink: "I could help you"
