Chapter 10: Once a Miracle, now a monster

In the centre of Station Square, Streak stepped ever forward, smashing gun robots where ever he went, laughing insanely.

"You fools can't beat me, I'm the Ultimate life form!" he chuckled "Now tell me where Sonic is!"

"But… you ARE Sonic." one of the hot shot pilots said in a confused voice

"How dare you compare me to that weak fool." Said Streak "for that you will die sooner" he jumped into the cockpit and kicked the pilot with such force it broke his nose "I am Streak the Hedgehog, Professor Gerald's last and best creation!"

"Very well Streak, give up now or we will be forced to use deadly force!" Yelled the general, he was piloting a new model walker, stronger and faster than the hotshot, flying dog and Big foot models that Streak, Sonic, Shadow and Rouge faced before, called death wolf.

"Fool, you already have been and it hasn't done any good!" mocked the Hedgehog. It jumped onto the Death wolf's Cockpit and, smashing the glass pulled out the general "prepare to meet your maker pitiful creature"

"Put him down!" yelled a voice behind him. The general hadn't believed Streak's claims till now, he thought the Hedgehog to be Sonic, till he saw a blue, green eyed hedgehog behind the red eyed monster that now held him by the shirt with one deadly hand.

"Ah there you are… I was beginning to think you a coward now you don't had me inside you" Said Streak, dropping the general back into his walker. He jumped off and kicked the piece of junk over. "Tell me brother, how is your little freakish friend holding up? Is the little fox dead yet?"

"Shut UP!" Yelled Sonic, lunging at his foe. Streak again dodged him easily, but this time Sonic didn't let up his attack, he had all his energy now, and he was going to use it on this dark foe.

"Is that all you got?" mocked Streak "If so you aren't going to win this goody two shoes." A fist flew forward, and now it was Sonic's turn to dodge, with as much ease as Streak had easily. "What? I can't hit you ether? Seems we are at a bit of a... Stalemate then" he said letting up. Sonic let his guard down as Streak stopped attacking. "Seems you are just as good in speed without me, we truly are perfect aren't we? Gerald made us to be that way you know. Perfect in every way, inhuman speed, untold strength, the power to obtain flight and stop time. Magnificent" he said, then smacked the unguarded Sonic across the face sending him flying. Sonic got up and shook his head to get rid of his dizziness. "Dontcha think?" finished Streak

"I... I don't know about me Streak, but you… I can tell… you are a monster, which has to be stopped!" Said Sonic defiantly.

"And who's going to stop me? Shadow? Metal? You? Your all to weak to beat me, only you stand the best chance and you can't win, you can't fight dirty, hence, I always win."

"I'll find a way…"

"Ha ho... don't be simple. If it weren't for me you wouldn't even exist."

"I've fought worse."

"Only because I was there as your strength… without me, your nothing. Just a shadow of me. Ironic really, when you consider who else is in our… little family."

Sonic began to jog onto the highway. Streak followed suite the battle was just about to begin.

"Another running battle, déjà vu isn't this similar to ARK?" Streak asked, Sonic remained Silent. "I see, the silent treatment huh? Very well Sonic, lets finish this"

"You are going to lose, I have to much riding on this battle, to many friends relying on me to let you win."

The battle begun, both hedgehogs ran down the road, blasting each other with what Sonic now realised was called "chaos wind" not Sonic wind, using chaos drives they both appropriated from the ruins of GUN robots. They kept running around the city roads in a big circle along its main highway. The Metal Miscreants, Ultimate Rogues and Hunters had arrived half way through the battle.

"What Does Sonic think he is doing?" yelled Shadow "He is no match for Streak!"

"Look again Shadow" said Metal "The battle is even now that Sonic has his strength back!"

"But can he keep it up? And even if he is strong enough to fight Streak in a fair fight, I don't think Streak will fight fair!" Said Spike

"He won't" said Miles

True enough Streak had tried to fight dirty, but unlike what his friends below thought, Sonic had countered every dirty tactic easily, more often than nought it was Streak that had failed to keep up.

"Why won't you fall?" said the red-eyed hedgehog frustrated

"I told you, I have to much riding on this to let you win, by the time this is over, I'm going to show you what my true power is."

"Déjà vu indeed, that was one of Shadow's lines, and if you remember, he actually lost that battle."

"Maybe but I am going to win."

"Just keep telling yourself that, you may make yourself believe it!" said the Insane hedgehog, he tripped up Sonic for the first time this battle, Sonic lost his footing for a second but was able to keep running, he was determined not to lose this fight.

"Your little tricks won't stop me!" he said defiantly

"We shall see!"

Rouge, Nack and Miles had got to the top of a nearby building to watch the action, Miles was surprised to see Sonic still in the running

"What's going on you guys?" he herd Mighty say through the radio.

"It still seems even from up here, one second one slows down, he catches up easily, then the same happens to the other." He replied

"No way to tell who's most in the lead?" asked Shadow

"None yet" came Nack's reply

Streak again tried to trip Sonic, but found himself with a Chaos wind to the face, the battle was fierce, it was obvious that by the end of this, one of the blue hedgehogs could be severely injured, or worse… collecting the emeralds proved nothing, it had all came down to this, the good and evil twins fighting for the fate of everyone in the world.

Sonic laid one final attack on Streak, the blue hedgehog fell off the road and near Shadow. All of Sonic's allies cheered, they thought the battle won. Sonic jumped off after his evil twin.

"Sonic!" yelled Shadow "You did it!" he ran to congratulate his brother

"Shadow, WAIT!" said Sonic in vain,

Streak was standing, and before anyone could react he pulled the emeralds near him with force of will, it had been a faint, a trap by Streak to gain access to unlock his full power. The Emeralds orbited him as everyone looked in horror, his fur changed from blue to gold, as his spikes bent upwards in a flame shape.

"Ha HA!" he chuckled. "Surprise everyone, I'm still alive and kicking," he said, he flew off as the emeralds fell to the ground. All hope seemed lost. The golden hedgehog that had once been called a miracle and saved the world many times before had become the monster that would ruin the world.
