"Sonic you're going too fast!" Popo and Nana exclaimed as they were feeling tired, their parkas getting sweaty from all the running they were doing.
Sonic smirked, the fast hedgehog turning his head back to the Ice Climbers. "What's wrong, can't handle a bit of running?"

"Well yeah but not like this!" Popo whined, nearly losing his grip on his wooden mallet. "We climb mountains, not run about!"

"We always get so heated in these clothing, but this is too much even for us!" Nana added while letting out a muffled fart. "There isn't even any ice for us here!"

"Well your loss!" Sonic joked as he then let the Ice Climber pair fall into the lake that he was familiar with, whistling as he waited for his friends to show up, taking a casual dash through the looming forest surrounding him.
