(Thanks to Draco Oblivion, dArK tIdEs, Dthehalfdragon, L-R-D, and Jetakon for your reviews! Alright, time for the last one chapter fight. Read on!)

Sheridan claws clanged against Red's swords, but Red pushed away allowing Sheridan to hit the ground. Red hopped backwards, just as Tate's fist went for his face. Spinning around, Red sliced at Tate's neck, but he ducked down allowing for Sheridan to jump over him and into Red. Red brought his new swords up just in time to be pushed backwards, his heels digging into the sand. Sheridan's growling face was almost touching Red's behind the blades, but Red pushed downwards again.

Sheridan jumped backwards, landing on all fours, and stared at Red. "Heh... You are certainly fun to play with."

"I'm not playing..." Red said, scratching his head.

"We are all playing the game." Tate suddenly said, while swinging his foot at Sheridan. Sheridan dodged to the side and continued spinning, extending his clawed hand to slice at Red. Red blocked it with Ijin. The chain rattled, and momentum swung it upwards, where it wrapped around Sheridan's wrist. Red grinned and pulled his wrist backwards causing Sheridan to stumble forward. Red threw his head forward for a vicious head butt onto Sheridan's skull. Sheridan blinked dumbly, and Red released Ijin's chain before slicing at Sheridan. However Sheridan just managed to bring up a claw, blocking the slice.

"Check!" Tate suddenly came in from the side, two daggers in hand. One was pure white, while the other was black, fitting with his image. Sheridan brought up his free claw to block the white dagger, but the black one stabbed through his shoulder causing Sheridan to yell in pain. Sheridan spat at Tate, but suddenly blood dripped from his muzzle. He stared down to his stomach to see Tenshi's golden blade through his stomach.

"So... so not fair..." Sheridan said, spitting blood on the floor. "Double... teaming..."

"Hey, purely by coincidence." Red pointed out, before pulling Tenshi from Sheridan's stomach, and swinging it at Tate. Tate hopped backwards, pulling his black dagger out simultaneously. He slashed at Red with his white dagger, but Red blocked it with Ijin and sliced with Tenshi. Tate blocked it with the black dagger and leaned forward putting his strength against Red, who equally pushed against Tate.

The two opposing pirates stared at each other while daggers wrestled with swords.

"So... any particular reason you are black and white?" Red asked, smiling behind the blades.

"Yes." Tate simply said, before ducking down causing Red to lurch forward, catching him off guard. Tate then thrust upwards, both daggers side by side. Both blades stabbed straight through Red's jaw, blood splashing down against the sand. Tate pulled the two daggers out as Red bent forward. He rolled over Red's back before thrusting the two daggers down straight into the back of Red's skull. Red collapsed to the ground, blood seeping from his head. "Checkmate." Tate said, before suddenly bringing his daggers up, blocking Sheridan's vicious claws. "And now for you."

"Hah! You're not going to get me that easily!" Sheridan exclaimed, kicking out at Tate's stomach. His foot made contact with Tate's stomach and drove the black and white man backwards. Sheridan stepped backwards before suddenly turning human. His fur went back into his skin while his spine straightened, and he stood straight up. Sheridan's hair was spiky brown, and his eyes were squinted. He was only wearing a ripped pair of black trousers, and he reached into them with a hand. "Gah! I hate this human form. But nevertheless..." Sheridan pulled a small yellow ball from his pocket.

"Know what this is Tate? I'll tell you. It's something that's been in development for years, but is really hard to get. I managed to get it from a special contact. Know what it's called? A rumble ball!" Sheridan grinned, before throwing the rumble ball into his mouth and biting down. "I may have a three minute time limit, but I can beat you in one!"

"Rumble ball?" Tate repeated. "How interesti- Urgh!"

Tate's eyes bulged out of his head as Sheridan tackled him, unusually large upper body. Tate crashed against the floor, and Sheridan roared up to the sky. Then his upper body suddenly shrunk essentially making him a very hairy human. However his claws continued to grow until they were almost a foot long. He lifted his claws and grinned as Tate got up. "Claw Cyclone!"

Sheridan leaped towards Tate and swung his claws around, cutting deep into Tate's chest. Sheridan continued turning until he was spinning again and again, blood splashing across the sand as his claws cut into Tate's chest. Finally, Sheridan stopped and allowed Tate to stumble backwards. "Still alive, eh?"

"Seems you are more than a pawn." Tate said, before reaching into his pocket and pulling out a glass vial. He went to throw it, but suddenly stopped, his eyes actually widening.

"What's wro-" Sheridan started, but suddenly gasped in pain, blood spilling down his mouth and staining his chest. Sheridan glanced down to see a golden blade stuck through his stomach and a crimson blade through his chest.

"Make sure your opponent is down for the count." Red hissed from behind Sheridan, before pulling his weapons from Sheridan's flesh. Another splash of red to the desert ground before Sheridan fell to the side, reduced back to his human state.

"Impossible..." Tate said facing Red, who grinned. "No... You must have a fruit. A healing one. No matter." Tate suddenly flicked his hand, and his black dagger soared through the air. Red slashed it out of the way but realized that was only a cover for the glass vial. It smashed against his face, glass shards sticking into his flesh. The contents seemed to be water, and this covered Red's head. "Sea water! You are done for!"

Red rubbed his eyes to get the water out and saw Tate charge at him. He had no time to dodge and the white dagger slashed across his throat, creating a jagged rip. Red stumbled backwards, his swords slipping from his fingers, embedding into the sand. Red reached up to his neck as blood spilled down in a torrent. "Ur... Urgh..." Red gurgled. "Ur... urha... hahaha! HAHAHA!"

"Wha...what..." Tate was caught off guard as Red started laughing, moving his hands away to show his skin stitching back together.

Red pulled his swords from the ground before putting Tenshi to his lips. He then licked the blade and in turn the blood. He repeated the process with Ijin before putting them in a cross shape. "It is impossible..." Red whispered, before looking straight into Tate's eyes.

For Tate, it was like looking into the eyes of a demon.

"Know why I'm called 'Blood' Red?" Red asked, raising an eyebrow. "Because I lust for blood! Crux Crucis Incidere..." Red put both swords together and grinned.

Tate was paralyzed. What he saw was a monster. One half of Red had intense black wings coming from his shoulders, horns curving from his head, and a glowing red eye. The other side had pure white wings, half a halo, and a golden eye. Each side corresponded with the equal side. "Heru Tentou! (Hell and Heaven).

Red suddenly disappeared and appeared behind Tate. One second passed, before there was a burst of wind and sand circled upwards around Tate, who had his arms outstretched, blood spurting from the cross shape cut from hip to hip and groin to forehead. The sand settled, and Tate fell to both knees.

"M... Mon... Monster..." Tate managed to mutter before falling headfirst into the sand.

Red turned around and licked the blood off the swords once more. "It's been awhile since I've gone like that...," he shrugged, "Well, I sho-"

Red was cut off as a body slammed into his side causing both him and the body to tumble to the sand.

"God damn!"

Red blinked and stared at Gouki, who was on one knee, bleeding from the forehead. "Gouki?"

Gouki turned to Red. "Oh, hey. I'd talk, but I'm currently embroiled in something."

"Your death, you mean?"

Red looked around for the voice, but found none. "What the-"

"The floor." Gouki said, pointed to the ground with Kazefuchi.

Red saw a figure was rising from the sand, before it came to fall height. The sand formed to human features, revealing the Captain of the Orvell Pirates, Orvell himself.

"Your crew has fallen Orvell!" Gouki said, motioning around to the other pirates. Jin and Tromso were supporting Hikari, who was awake but weak. Wora was standing behind next to Blair. They were all walking towards Orvell. "You would do well to go now, unless you want to be killed."

"My crew has served their purpose." Orvell said, looking down at the shorter Gouki. "Your crew has been sufficiently weakened. I shall destroy you." Orvell raised his hands, and sand started swirling around in a torrent. "Suna Arashi! (Sand Storm)"

Red protected his face from the sand as it swirled around harder and harder.

"It is time for me to annihilate you all!" Orvell said, before he himself started dissolving into sand, slowly becoming a part of the massive sand storm. "Your end has come!"

(How do y'all like Red's new attack?
