The Final Showdown
Nick and the others were staring at Dark Hate as his feet touched the ground. He dropped Sly by Murray and faced Nick. "My have you grown since we last met." Dark Hate said. "You were just a mere child when I obliterated your family and took your big brother away from you." Nick clenched his fists and glared. Then he stared at Serena and gave a small grin, "Well, well, how did you enjoy my little friend the black fox, coming for a visit?" Serena just glared and took out her blade. "Your killing spree is over Dark Hate!" Nick shouted. Dark Hate just shook his head slowly and laughed. "Have you forgotten young one?" He started. "I'm not as merciless as the other members. It was your father I was after. I merely wanted revenge. You should be thanking your big brother for killing those other three members for you." Nick just growled and took out his Fireblade. He lunged at the vampire bat, who simply out of the way and grabbed his tail.
Dark Hate held Nick up and held one of his deadly talons to his neck. "Still the same hot-headed youngster I met…" Dark Hate muttered. He stabbed Nick in his stomach and he choked. Dark Hate then threw him into the wall and smirked. "Who's next?" Serena took a cautious step towards Dark Hate, who stood there waiting patiently. She then ran up and took a quick slice at him. Dark Hate dodged again and wrapped his wings around her. He plunged his jaws into her shoulder and sapped her energy. Serena gasped and collapsed at her feet. Zack ran up and began sending punches at the black bat. Dark Hate blocked them and was ready to plunge his jaws into him, but he dodged and kicked him directly in the face. Dark Hate went flying several feet; he glared at the black fox and then disappeared. Zack flinched and he looked around, there was a scream from Celestial. Zack turned around and saw Dark Hate, holding his cousin by her neck. "Now then, should I devour her raw?" he muttered. "Or should I just slice her head clean off?" Celestial was staring at him in wide-eyed horror. Then Dark Hate was cut clean down his back by a red blade. He dropped Celestial and spun around to find Nick, holding his Fireblade and growling.
"If you ever touch my cousin again…" Nick started. "You'll what?" Dark Hate interrupted, wincing in pain from the blow. "Kill me? I don't need any hostages to defeat you or your friends. I'll finish you all off slow and painfully…" He took out the green gem, which began to glow vibrantly. He then began to bulge. His wound healed and his jaws grew three times it regular size. His body grew larger and he gave a roar that made everyone's blood run cold. He grabbed Nick and sent his claws deep into Nick's wounded stomach. Nick screamed and dropped his blade. Serena's ears pricked up and she slowly got up. She choked and clenched her stomach. She held her Iceblade and weakly said, "Heal…" Her blade glowed and wrapped her in the blue aura. Her wounded shoulder healed and her energy was back. She looked at the giant demon that had Nick in his grasp. She ran up to Zack who turned to face her. "What happened?" She asked quickly. "What's going on?" "Dark Hate just used the green gem." Zack said quietly. "Luckily, I brought the other five gems along…" He took out the purple gem and gave it to Serena. "Use this gem; it looks like the right one for you." Serena nodded and held the gem. It glowed and suddenly, she felt a bit different. She rubbed her head a bit, and looked at her blade. It was sharper and she could see her reflection in it. She gasped and almost screamed. She became more cat-like then she was before. "You idiot!" She shouted. "I'm more of a cat demon then I normally was!" Zack flinched and then gave a small smile. "Hey, it was the right power gem wasn't it?" She stared at her furry paws and sighed.
Celestial was running towards Zack and Serena. "Hey what's…?" She stopped and stared at Serena's new look. "Don't say a word!" Serena snapped furiously. Zack gave Celestial a serious look. "You have your gem?" Celestial nodded and took her gem out of the brown bag. The blade grew three times larger and Celestial stared at it, smiling. "Where's Jerry?" Zack asked quickly. "We can't really defeat this monster without him…" Jerry was hiding under the bed trembling. Just this morning he waved his pals good-bye. After a few minutes he was simply drinking orange juice. But when he saw the giant bat outside the window, he spat out his juice and screamed like a little girl. Brutis grabbed Jerry by the collar of his shirt. "Will you get up from under there and come on!" He yelled. Jerry shook his head furiously. "Not this time! I was brave enough to save Nick and Serena but to fight that giant monster… no way!" Brutis gave Jerry a smile that made Jerry stop shaking. "Um…what're you gonna do?" Jerry asked nervously. Brutis just shrugged, "Nothing, nothing at all…"
As Zack, Serena and Celestial prepared for battle, they heard a scream from the distance as Jerry went flying high over the gate and slamming face-first into the ground. He trembled. "That Brutis is stronger than he looks!" Jerry said hoarsely. Zack just threw him the blue gem. "Just use it would ya?" Jerry shivered a bit but then nodded. The gem glowed brightly and Jerry's I.Q. skyrocketed. "Wow! This is incredible!" Jerry cried heroically. "My I.Q is at least 440 now!" Zack used the red gem, which made his eyes go completely white and claws grow sharper. "Ready everyone?" Zack asked. The other three nodded. Zack ran at high speeds and slashed Dark Hate in his chest. He roared and dropped Nick, who sucked in air. Then Celestial charged her blade, bolts of lightning surged through her sword. She blasted a giant bolt of lightning, which stunned the giant bat. Serena was next; she quickly sliced at the demonic bat who cried in pain at the various scars and gashes left on his face. Jerry calculated where the gem was embedded in Dark Hate. He snapped his fingers and then stared at Bentley's wheelchair. He ran over to him, "You wouldn't happen to have a few trinkets I could use do you?" Bentley nodded and gave him the broken binocucom.
As if he was Tech E. Coyote himself, Jerry quickly made himself a device capable of taking the power gem out of the bat. Unfortunately before he got to use it, Dark Hate sent a dark orb of energy hurtling at Jerry, who screamed and wasn't able to dodge. He was simply blown to oblivion, nothing left but ash and his glasses. Serena and Celestial gasped, Zack stared wide-eyed at the ash pile and Nick just frowned. Jerry then regenerated himself anew. "Remember how Uncle Rick Mcfox was always able to survive all those explosions unharmed?" Nick asked his brother Zack, who grinned and nodded. Jerry shook his head and stared at himself. "I'm alive? I'm alive!!" He shouted to the heavens. He pulled the trigger which shot a dart at high speeds. It plunged into Dark Hate's chest and pulled the gem out. The bat's eyes widened as he shrunk down to size. The gem rolled near Nick's foot. He picked it up and it glowed vibrantly. He grinned.
"No, this can't be!" Dark Hate hissed. "I've lived for hundreds of years! I can't be defeated!" Nick held his blade, which was now burned brightly and had a wicked curved tip. "Everyone now!" Nick cried. "We have to use all of our gems combined to defeat him!" Serena charged up her blade along with Celestial, Zack was ready to launch an explosive attack, and Jerry held his paw up high in the air and absorbed as much cosmic energy as he could handle. Finally, Nick's blade shone with a burning red aura as he was ready to launch his special attack. "Power of the sun!" Nick cried, his blade getting hotter and hotter by the second. "Burning fire attack!" He launched a fireball as hot as the sun itself. Serena and Celestial shot their attacks, Zack blasted his giant red and black ball, and Jerry held his hand as the cosmic energy burst from his hand, DagonBall Z style. The attacks combined and created a blast of so much power. It could be seen from Outer Space.
Dark Hate screamed as his body began to disintegrate. "This isn't possible, no…NO!" A flash of white embedded his body, and he was wiped from the face of the Earth.
