Rocket's POV
I walked up to the entrance for Seaside Hill. I saw a Sol Emerald floating over Espio, so I had to assume it was either the Green Sol Emerald or the Purple Sol Emerald. I was only one level away from having the entire collection of Sol Emeralds and one level away from saving Blaze. I stepped up to the entrance of the level and walked through.
I skated until coming to a spring that propelled me upward. I went through a Rainbow Ring, boosted ahead, took out an Egg Pawn and three Spinners, and continued on. I used the Wall Jump to get to higher ground and kept exploring. I used a Rainbow Ring to get to a higher part of the level and pressed on. I then came to the part of the level that had three paths and you had to choose one of the three. I took the path with the cart and drove it all the way to the blockade at the end. I jumped out when the cart was destroyed. I continued on until the goal was in sight. I ran ahead, making sure not to be crushed. I used a Jump Panel to get some air. I thought for sure I was going to undershoot and fall into the water. Luckily, an orca whale was there to help me across. "Thanks, Shamu," I said before running over to the goal. I touched it and was immediately sent back to White Space.
The Green Sol Emerald, Seaside Hill, and Espio were all restored. The emerald floated down to me and I added it to my collection of Sol Emeralds. "Very impressive," Espio congratulated. "Thanks. Only one more to go," I said. "Looks like you're all done with this part of the world," Espio noticed. "Yeah. I just need to face Shadow and Perfect Chaos. Then, I can start on the next area starting with there," I said, pointing to Crisis City. "Then I wish you luck on your adventures," he said. "Thanks," I replied before skating off to face Shadow.
