Sonic cannot leave Princess Elise alone, and watches her every single day as if drawn to her. Finally, he decides to approach her just as the Festival of the Sea begins. As he nervously walks up to her, he finds that she keeps eying him as if she is drawn to him too. Just as their eyes meet, Dr. Eggman arrives and attacks the city with a huge army of robots. Sonic’s main priority is saving Elise, although it costs others lives. Carrying her away, he realises his mistake and returns to defeat the robots. When he returns, he finds that Elise has been kidnapped.
