Knothole Village, 3 PM

I was awed by the sheer AMOUNT of things that were happening all at once in the underground village. People were everywhere! They were shopping, eating, tending to their children, and just going about their normal lives. "See, this isn't only a haven, it's just a normal living area." Sonic told me. He was looking around when his eyes glazed over and his tongue hung out and started to water. "Before we report to Sally, let's eat!" he exclaimed. He grabbed my hand and zoomed over to a restaurant. I saw people's eyes widen as they dived out of the way of the blue blur. He skidded to a stop in front of the ordering menu and a vole came to the counter and said "Sonic, me pal! I'm guessing it's the usual for you?" he inquired. "Darn right Colin!" "And what for your young friend?" "The same" he said nonchalantly. "Hold on just a tic!" Sonic got us a table and sat me down before getting in his own seat. "What exactly is the 'usual'?" I asked. "Just wait and find out, Tails!" he exclaimed. Colin came over, and in a French accent, said " And now, the piece de' resistance!" He pulled out a plate that was loaded with chilidogs! Colin bent down to my ear and said "Sonic just LOVES my chilidogs! He doesn't have to pay because it's him that makes all this possible!" I was just staring dumbfoundedly at the amount of chilidogs that Sonic was scarfing down. I mean it was amazing. he was picking them up and practically swallowed them whole. He barely even stopped to chew. A few moments later, he gave out a deep belch and stood up "Ah that really hit the spot!" he sighed contentedly. He stood up, pushed his chair in, and said "Well, let's go see the princess!"
