Seaside Hill was brimming with activity as Shadow and Silver were having a footrace around the tropical beach, going up and down and all around the checkerboard loops as they were near the Ocean Ruin racecourse.
"You know, we've pretty much have been all around Seaside Hill at this point." Silver stated to Shadow as he moved his arms from side to side. "Do you feel like this place has been a bit... overused?"
Shadow rolled his eyes as he shook his head. "Honestly, I'm so used to being in various popular Sonic locations that it's all the same to me. Although if I have to be honest, since Seaside Hill is the place I end up at the most, it feels like home." He rubbed his chin with his right hand. "Or, at least it's the closest place that feels home."
"I don't even remember my original home." Silver commented as he moved his hands about. "What, with my original place being retconned, and my retconned home just being flat out ignored. But I have to say, I'll definitely take Seaside Hill over it." He then fell into a lake, causing Shadow to laugh his head off.
Elsewhere in Seaside Hill, near the Lost Palace racecourse, Espio was standing on the wooden bridge overlooking the starting line, looking down as he had his arms folded.
"I honestly can't believe I wasted all this time looking for a bunch of hermit crabs with Vector and Charmy." Espio muttered to himself as he shook his head, sighing in disgust as he closed his eyes.
