The smoke cleared away, the winner unclear. What had just happened? Wasn't the chaos emeralds' power unlimited? "Now, Sonic, nothing will stand in my way… nothing…."
On one side, stood Sonic, ready for action. On the other, stood Déjà vu, calm as ever. Both smirked as they readied their energy. With the chaos emeralds around him, Sonic charged up, his blue fur sparkling yellow and his emerald eyes glowing red.
Déjà vu on the other hand threw her arms high into the air. Summoning the powers deep within her, a strange purple aurora began to glow around her. Then, her black fur changed and glowed orange and her white fur became black. Her eyes grew dark and the purple shined brightly within them. A long black gown appeared over her usual attire and a v-neck had a spider web coving up her. Orange spirals draped on the back of the dress and up the sleeves. She looked frightful.
"Before this is over," Déjà vu growled, "You will witness the true magic of Soul Energy!"
Sonic charged up and then ran at her full force, smacking her in the side. Strangely, Déjà vu took the hit and flew to the ground, already looking beat.
"Is that all you got?" Super Sonic asked.
"Nope. Go ahead! Take your best shot!" Déjà vu stood up, giving a clear shot directly at her.
Unsuspecting Sonic beat her again and again, victory seeming in the palm of his hand. Finally, Déjà vu looked beaten. She fell, crumpled in a heap, onto the concrete. Super Sonic flew over to her, looking down, "Too easy…"
Just then, Déjà vu let out a howl. The shrill sound flew into the air and a visible wave of it smacked into Sonic. Just then, a red flaming spirit charged at Sonic as he was paralyzed by the sound waves.
Sonic screamed out in agony as the spirit hit him.
"How do you like the pain? It's the same pain you just inflicted on me, only stronger!" Déjà vu laughing maniacally.
Sonic stood up, mightily injured, "So… you do have a few tricks…."
"I've got more than just a few, hedgehog."
Sonic charged back up and ran towards Déjà vu, but right before contact, he dove under her and hit her from behind.
Déjà vu bent forward as her upper half was kicked, but she somersaulted in midair and kicked Sonic in his special place.
Tails and Amy winced as they saw poor crippled Sonic pause before falling to the ground, shivering in pain.
"Hah! Weakling! One kick and your down and out? I thought you were the great Sonic the Hedgehog?"
Shaking, Sonic stood up, "I'm just getting warmed up… That's all…" He took off back into the sky.
"You've got spunk… but I'm afraid we're done here!" Déjà vu reached behind her and a black blade appeared in her hands. Quicker than a bullet, and before Sonic could react, she lunged at him, stabbing the blade deep into his chest.
"Sonic! No!" Amy yelled, tears in her eyes.
Sonic stared at his chest in disbelief. He had a long, glowing blade struck through him! It came through the other side!
Then, Déjà vu pulled it out and side kicked Sonic into a wall.
"No!" Amy cried.
Then, something weird happened. Sonic stood up, fine. No hole in his chest, not even any spilt blood!
"What was that?" Sonic asked, taken aback.
"A soul strike. It never touches your skin, but stabs your very soul. Are you new to the odd feeling? Don't worry, you'll get used to it after a few more blows!" Déjà vu lunged again, but Sonic ran out of the way, knocking Déjà vu into the concrete wall behind him.
"Clumsy, are we?" Sonic asked, smirking.
"Not funny, hedgehog!" Déjà vu shouted running back at Sonic. Sonic held out a fist, prepared to punch her out, but he never expected what happened next.
CRUNCH!
Sonic looked at his fist and saw Déjà vu's head there. But sharp teeth dug into Sonic's hand. His face went blank as he let out a yelled, "Ah! Hey! Leggo' of my hand!"
"No way!" Déjà vu said through gritted teeth.
In a comical fashion, Super Sonic shook his hand around, trying to get the canine loose; but to no avail.
"Get off! How do I know you haven't had your shots?"
Déjà vu paused, "You don't!"
That did it. Sonic prepared an energy ball in his hand and blasted it into Déjà vu's mouth. Gagging, she let go and fell. Finally, she coughed up flames. She grinned, "That's a spicy meatball!"
Sonic gave an odd look, "Uhm… does it taste good?"
"Of course! And the blood enhanced the flavor!" déjà vu laughed. Sonic looked at his mauled hand and let out a tiny whimper. Then, holding his hand in pain, he emitted terrible sounds of muffled shouts, again in a comical fashion.
Déjà vu laughed maniacally, then took advantage of this and sliced at Sonic, directly through him. Again, the soul strike left no wound, but doubled the pain. Sonic cried in pain, but regained himself, tackling Déjà vu.
Hours of charging and slicing until finally, Déjà vu gave a final slash. Sonic fell with a sickening thud and crashed down into the pavement. His yellow fur flashed once then became blue again.
The smoke cleared away, the winner unclear. What had just happened? Wasn't the chaos emeralds' power unlimited? "Now, Sonic, nothing will stand in my way… nothing…."
