Chapter Thirty-One: The Final Assault: Part Two
Shadow was streaking across the sky. He has to do this battle by himself.
Shadow: I thought I would never have to bring this out...
He stopped in midair. He started to enter his Final Form. His hair became white and his streaks turned black. His black wing became angel instead of devil, and his gloves also turned black.
Knuckles: He's entering that form from before...
Amy: He will be okay...right?
Tails: He's fine, but right now we have to help Sonic...hey, where did he go?
They saw Sonic limping over to the cliff.
Knuckles: What are you doing?!
Then, Sonic jumped off the cliff.
Rouge: He's practically committing suicide!
They saw a pillar of white light. Sonic also transformed into Final Form. He took off like a rocket after Shadow, who had already infiltrated the base. He was tearing through monster after monster, and eventually destroyed room after room. He flew past endless hallways and traps and got into the main chamber.
Shadow: Come out now, and I'll make it easy on you!
Demise: Who's hiding?
He was right behind Shadow.
Shadow: Well; well: long time no see!
He launched out a chaos spear, but it just hit the wall.
Demise: I see you've gotten better with your aim. If I hadn't teleported I would have been toast.
Dawn: That all you can do? It's been a while Demise...
Demise: It's been too long, for all I say...
Suddenly, there was a devilish look in his eye.
Dawn: This has to be why he's acting this way...that's not Demise, that's something possessing him, and he's letting it...
Shadow: That explains all the fighting he's started lately...he enjoys seeing pain...
??: You hit it right on the dot!
Suddenly, a dark mist entered the room, and an evil-looking spirit emerged from Demise, who collapsed onto the ground.
Sonic: Whoa, what's going on?!
Sonic entered the room.
Dawn: Everyone out!
Sonic and Shadow ran out of the room. Dawn went back for Demise. He put his arm over his own shoulder and ran off.
Meanwhile outside...
The rest saw the dark mist pouring out of the tower. It flew cross land, sea, and sky. It reached the cliff within seconds. The sky was now dark with an eclipsed sun.
Amy: Burr...why is it so cold?
Cosmo: The sun is eclipsed. From the looks of it, I'd say that Demise is plotting something...but what?
Sonic, Demise, Dawn, and Shadow landed on the cliff. Dawn laid down Demise.
Knuckles: If he's here, then...who..?
??: Muhahaahahah!
Sonic: He's back...
Dawn: Get ready...
Suddenly, there was a storm. It appeared out of nowhere and turned violent instantly. It began to strike the ground with pillars of lightning.
Shadow: That's it! This has got to stop now!
Shadow and Sonic reentered their Final Forms and took off. They couldn't be seen in the rain...
??: Muahahahaha...
