Welcome back everybody, glad to see you all again and to the newcomers, thanks for checking it out. Anyways, let's get the show on the road.

The wedding date was set, June 23rd, Sonic's birthday.
Sally was currently going through the guest list, as Julie Su questioned her on the musician for the event.
"All I'm saying is that Knuckles said he's willing to DJ for the event." Julie Su says.
"I appreciate the offer, but I want something more sentimental, something more romantic." Sally says.
"I get what you mean, Knuckles decided for our wedding to play his original rap song." Julie Su said.
Sally couldn't hold back her laughter.
"Yeah, I can kind of see why he gave up on a music career." Sally says, giggling.
The two tease each other over their boyfriends more, until finally, a knock interrupts them.
"Come in." Sally says.
One of her subjects enters the room.
"Your Majesty, there is a Miss Mongoose awaiting your presence downstairs." He says.
"Mina?" Sally wonders.
"I haven't seen her in so long." Sally thinks.
The two rush downstairs to the study where Mina is waiting for them.
They enter and their gazes are turned to Mina herself.
"Sally." Mina says.
"Mina." Sally says.
The two embrace in a welcoming hug,
"It's so good to see you again." Sally says, as a tear escapes her eye.
"Same here." Mina says.
They break the hug as Sally turns Mina's attention to Julie Su.
"You may have seen each other before, but you two haven't really met, this is my friend, Julie Su." Sally introduces her.
"Pleasure to meet you." Mina says, shaking Julie Su's hand.
"The pleasure is all mine." Julie Su says, trying to crush Mina's hand in the shake but it was a no go.
"Nice try." Mina says, grinning.
"So what brings you out here?" Sally asks.
"Well my tour finally ended and I figured it's been a few years since I've been home, may as well take a vacation." Mina says.
"Yeah, after all that performing I'd probably need a break too, still, at least you have Ash to keep you company." Sally pointed out.
Mina turns her head, she feared the subject would come up.
"How are you two doing anyway?" Sally asks.
Mina's eyes start to grow misty as the memory causes tears to well up.
"Mina?" Sally asks, worried.
"Ash and I aren't together anymore." Mina croaks out.
Sally looks back in shock
"What happened?" Sally asks, as she comforts her friend.
"It turns out Ash started seeing girls on the side while we were still together, and when I was performing on stage he would…" Mina trails off, not wanting to say anymore as she starts to sob harder.
Sally held her friend close trying to calm her down.
"It's alright, it'll be okay, he's gone now, you're among friends." Sally says.
"Yeah and if her ever tries anything funny with you again, just call me and I'll teach him a lesson." Julie Su offers, doing punching motions.
Mina slightly laughs at this.
"Thank you." Mina says.
"I don't want to think about it right now, let's talk about you, are you and Sonic still on again off again?" Mina asks Sally.
"Nope, were getting married next month." Sally says, showing off her ring.
"Congratulations." Mina says, with her frown slowly turning to a smile.
"Yeah and Julie Su over there managed to marry Knuckles." Sally tells her.
"You're kidding, you managed to get Knuckles to settle down?" Mina asks, surprised.
"I married the guy but he is far from settled." Julie Su says, chuckling.
"Anyone else tie the knot while I was away?" Mina asks.
"Well Bunnie and Antoine are still together, Shadow and Rouge are dating, Amy managed to find some guy, I'm not sure who he is yet, and Nicole and Espio seem close." Sally says, listing off the couples.
"Wow, can't believe I missed that much." Mina says, regretting not being there.
"You've been away a long time, but at least now you'll be here for our wedding." Sally says, trying to lighten the mood.
"Yeah." Mina says, cheering up a little.
"That reminds me, Sally, you said you wanted musicians for the reception, how about little miss pop star here?" Julie Su suggests, pointing at Mina.
"No, she just got back from touring, I couldn't ask her to do that." Sally says.
"No need to ask, I'd be honored to perform at your wedding." Mina says, accepting the offer.
"Are you sure?" Sally asks.
"Yes, it'll be great, I have the perfect new ballad for the occasion." Mina says, excited.
"Alright then, guess I can cross that off my list, now all we need is the guest list, Julie, is everyone accounted for?" Sally asks.
"Yeah, everyone and their dates are accounted for, except for Tails, he still hasn't replied." Julie Su said.
Sally lowered her head and sighed.
"Oh wow, I haven't heard from Tails since I was training to be a freedom fighter, did he find someone too?" Mina asks.
"Unfortunately not, Tails only had eyes for one girl, her name was Fiona Fox, she was part of the team until one day she betrayed us, she cheated on Sonic with Scourge and hurt Tails beyond belief, she went with Scourge to Moebius and since then Tails hasn't been the same." Sally retold the story, almost breaking.
"Poor Tails, he finally found a girl he liked and she does that to him, I should pay him a visit, I just hope he's okay." Mina thinks, planning on visiting him later.
The subject enters the study.
"Your majesty, Sir Sonic has requested your presence at the Lake of Rings." He says.
"May as well go see what he's up to, it's been nice talking to you again Mina, I'll see you at the reception." Sally says, heading out the castle doors.
Mina and Julie Su follow suit soon after, wandering back into town.
"This is my stop, Knuckles will be worried if I keep him waiting." Julie Su says.
"Well it was nice meeting you, oh before I forget, where does Tails live?" Mina asks.
"He built a new house out in the ruins, where Knothole Village used to be." Julie Su tells Mina as she heads off.
"Well less than a day back in town, I already got a gig and a new friend." She thinks to herself.
She quickly builds up speed and runs out to the ruins of Knothole.
