[b][Music Festival - Metropolis][/b] [@Mistress Dizzy]

The festivities had barely even begun, but the streets of downtown Metropolis would be bustling with life. Hundreds of thousands of people, Mobians and Humans alike, all come together to celebrate what some believed and many hoped to be the anniversary of the end of Eggman.

While most would be in quite good and joyous spirits, many of the festival security would appear to be keeping a watchful eye on the crowds. And making his own way through the crowds would be a rather unassuming figure, though people in the know would likely be able to recognize him as Mina Mongoose's manager.

[color=fdc68a]"She still hasn't checked in at any of the gates?"[/color] He'd mutter on his phone, clearly agitated. [color=fdc68a]"Great, she's set for the starting speech in two hours, nowhere to be found, and of course she doesn't answer her cell as usual..."[/color]

[color=fff79a]"I'm sure he's around here somewhere, miss."[/color] A sweet and innocent voice would speak up, belonging to a certain Cream the Rabbit as she walked through the streets of South City, at her side a yellow mongoose. [color=fff200]"Thanks a lot for helping, I know he can be a bit of trouble to actually find."[/color]

The aforementioned Mongoose would be none other than the famous music star Mina Mongoose, who... was supposed to be in Metropolis right about now. She'd look back to her phone for a moment. Two hours... that's plenty of time to get back... as long as she found who she was looking for...

As they continued forward, the small chao atop the young rabbit's head would perk up, before darting to the side and stopping before a familiar pink hedgehog. [color=fff79a]"Cheese! Don't wander off like that on your own!"[/color] The girl would call out, rushing up before looking at the figure before her. [color=fff79a]"Oh, hello Miss Amy!"[/color] She'd greet with a courteous bow, the chao mimicking her as the mongoose walked up beside them.
