Sonic:Uh-huh.
[Sonic looks at Tails.]
Sonic:We can't let them follow us through the ring portal, let's fight them off a little, then find a hiding spot to leave. Let's split up. You go high, I go low.
Tails: Right.
[Sonic stretches.]
Sonic: Quick little stretch and here we go.
[Sonic rides the remains of the Badnik as a snowboard and slides through the snow. A barrage of aerial Badniks and Buzz Bombers chase after him]
Sonic: Oh, so you want to play?
[Sonic continues to snowboard as the Buzz Bombers shoot lasers at him from their stingers]
Sonic: That's new.
[Sonic is tossed into the air and being chased by the Badniks, with Tails taking notice]
Tails: Sonic!
[Tails goes in to try and help but is kept away by the explosions and lasers.]
Tails:WHOA!Whoa!
[Especially the ones being fired by Robotnik. With Knuckles, he scowls. He then punches a Badnik and uses its remains as a snowboard as well and follows Sonic. Speaking of which, Sonic is still being chased by Badniks shooting lasers at him until he gets a handful of snow]
Sonic: Snowball fight!
[Sonic throws dozens of snowballs at the Badniks, making them all crash]
Sonic: (Laughs) It's too easy. Come on, challenge me!
[As Sonic says that...]
Badniks:Challenge Accepted.
[Sonic heads straight toward an enormous army of Badniks in front of him that shoot lasers at him. He then leaps off his snowboard with time slowing down as he leaps through the lasers while blowing Badniks up]
Sonic: We are talking style and pizzazz.
[Sonic lands on a Buzz Bomber and fires its artillery - making shooting noises - at several other Badniks until he eventually gets back onto his snowboard]
Sonic: Yeah! I make this look good!
[Through the debris, Knuckles reveals himself as he heads straight toward Sonic]
Sonic: (Annoyed) Oh, great. The Knucklehead.
[Knuckles is right beside Sonic, trying to shove him off and makes him collide with a curved rock. Sonic looks around to see Knuckles bursts out of the forest on his right and dodges, making him hit the trees on the left]
Sonic: For a guy named Knuckles, you are really bad at punching.
Knuckles: Surrender the compass! You are no match for me. I've been training for this my entire life.
Sonic: And I have no training at all, yet here I am ahead of you. That's gotta be embarrassing.
[Sonic slides off a ledge, only for Knuckles to pound it to pieces and making Sonic lose his balance. Sonic then slips to the edge of a cliff, spilling his pouch and all his Rings.]
Sonic: My Rings!
[Sonic notices Longclaw's feather and immediately grabs it and looks at it with a sigh of relief.]
Sonic:At least I didn't lose this.
[Sonic climbs onto the top of the ledge and puts the feather back in his pouch, only to be met by Knuckles]
