As the pink hedgehog led the way, Mina would smile before looking to the Chaotix. [color=fff200]"She's sure got some spunk, huh?"[/color] She'd comment, looking out towards the lush green hills outside of town. [color=fff200]"Yeah... yeah that sounds like Sonic for sure. And I can't let ya do this for nothing, after all... how about some free back stage passes for the festival? That's the least I can do."[/color]

Whether they accepted or not, she turned back towards the hedgehog as she had gotten quite a lead. [color=fff200]"She's got a head start, better hurry or she might scare him off."[/color] She'd joke with a giggle, before getting into a sprinting position... and taking off like a shot. Sure, music was her talent. But she wasn't a one trick pony by any means.

Within moments she'd have caught up with the hedgehog. [color=fff200]"You're pretty fast, I'll race ya there!"[/color] She'd offer, the streak of yellow taking the lead as they headed for the hills.

It would take a moment as the device synced with the military frequency, with quite a bit of static before it became more clear.

[i][color=8493ca]"Command to 'Hammer of Justice', come in, over."

"'Hammer of Justice', read you command. Proceed, over."

"Command to 'Hammer of Justice', proceed to marked coordinates over Mystic Jungle. Condition Red. Field Team Dark has located and engaged Priority Target. Provide emergency combat support and prevent Priority Target from escaping. Over."

"'Hammer of Justice' acknowledges, Command. Battleship mobile, all hands moving to combat stations. Proceeding to marked coordinates immediately. Over and out."[/color][/i]

The chatter would begin to light up as units across the area were mobilizing, but this much was clear. Something big was going down. Those versed in military chatter would likely recall that a 'Condition Red' was one of their highest alerts, and there were very few threats that could bring about such a response on Mobius. All the while, the unsuspecting public was blissfully unaware that such an operation was even taking place.

Mystic Jungle was far out of the way, deep in the heart of former Eggman Empire territory. Covered in extremely dense foliage, no one with a healthy dose of common sense would find themselves that far out there. But if someone wanted to stay out of sight... there were few better places to hide.
