Carnival Island was in the middle of a party as the Jump Parade was having several racers zip through it, with Opa Opa being the leader, as usual.
"Damn, why does Opa Opa always get the lead and stay there for the remainder of the race?" Shadow grumbled as he drifted on his motorcycle.
Amy giggled as she pulled up to Shadow. "Because the author has an unhealthy love for Opa Opa, duh!"
"...Are you sure that's the only reason?" Alex Kidd commented as he appeared next to Amy, the three of them bouncing off the rooftop various times. "I mean, Fantasy Zone was a good game..."
Shadow and Amy glanced at each other, then back at Alex, only for all three of them to be knocked away by Dr. Eggman's all star move.
"You were in my way," Eggman apologized with a boastful laugh as he followed Opa Opa past the finish line, the other three accelerating back into top speed and chasing down Eggman.
"Let's deal with the doctor first, then resume our conversation," Shadow commented as he picked up a red rocket.
"Deal." Amy and Alex agreed as the three teamed up to knock Eggman down from second place, not bothering to get first since Opa Opa was destined to win.
As usual.
Yet again.
