The Casino Park was full of live and energy as yellow rings and coins with SEGA printed on it were spewing out of the many gambling machines as Sonic, Shadow, Rouge, and Eggman were all together, the four of them celebrating their birthday in style as it was Rouge's turn for the birthday.

"Oooh! Look at all this money!" Rouge exclaimed as she had her hands on her face. "Granted, they're not as nice as jewels, but they can easily be exchanged in favor of them!"

Shadow scoffed as he folded his arms, rolling his eyes. "I'll never understand your love for jewels, Rouge..." He muttered as he shook his head.

"It's because she's a thief at heart, and jewels reflect her 'pretty' side," Eggman exclaimed as he moved his hands around in a weird manner. "Personally I like to extract all the energy out of them to fuel my machinery!"

Sonic scoffed as he wrapped his arms around the back of the head, slightly being ahead of everyone else. "That's so you, Robotnik! Why can't you think of something more clever!"

Eggman growled in annoyance at Sonic as the blue hedgehog kept taunting him, while Shadow was getting quite annoyed from Rouge's love for emeralds.
