[Sonic is good at tracking people who chase him. It's all about that environmental awareness. He sees the sparks are turning away and he groans.]

Why do they ALWAYS want to go into a population zone? [It's the most irksome thing.]

[Fine, he won't chase? Herding it is.]

[Sonic changes direction, but not a straight shot for....amnesia???Shadow. No, he knows these streets well enough.]

[Push the sprint and instead of chasing, he's circling.]

[And leaving mist in his wake. Lowering visibility more and more so the only obvious markers are]

[Well, them. Between his sparking and the energy of the airshoes.]
