Chapter 4: Trez Strikes!

' Now I remember where I heard Trez before!' Scribbles wrote as Ghost piloted the shuttle to the space colony ARK.

" Really?" Flame asked.

' The reason my family line is mute is because of Trez. He placed a curse on my ancestor, Scratch.' The mute chao continued. Spic had her sledgehammer at the ready in case there was a door to total or some robots to waste. Her sister, Span, had her hat on to carry her pals to victory. Ghost had the Froaster at his side with both the Chaos Emeralds and the Super Emeralds just in case Super Ghost was needed. Scribbles prepared his best signs as the craft drew closer to the station.

" Next floor! Trading cards, anime, and the most satisfying beat down ever! Let's go my friends! To victory!" Ghost yelled.

" To victory!" the rest yelled as they kicked the hatch open. The hangar was silent, as if someone hit the mute button on the TV remote. Span knocked the door down leading to the main lab. Suddenly, the room glowed with a green light. When the light faded, Shadow stood there with Maria.

" What are you doing here?" Flash asked.

" It's time for a little payback!" Shadow growled.

" I know the layout of this place better than anyone. Besides, I need to get something out of my room." Maria said.

" Scribbles, Span, Flash. Go with Maria. Do NOT let her out of your sight. Shadow, you're with us. We meet back here in ten minutes." Ghost ordered. The two groups went their separate ways. Shadow led the way, using an Emerald to light the way. There were puddles of water everywhere. The water started to group together and take shape. A metal head rose onto the top.

" Whoa! A fake Chaos!" Ghost exclaimed. The watery being shot two tentacles at the gang. They grabbed Flame and lifted her into the air. The tendrils then began to squeeze the life out of her. Ghost tried to punch the big drip, only to have his fist go through it. Spic hit the head with her hammer, destroying it. The water then fell, dropping Flame onto the floor. The red chao began to catch her breath.

" You okay?" Ghost asked. Flame nodded her head.

" Thank you Ghost!" She gasped as soon as she could talk. Ghost shook his head and pointed to Spic.

" She was the one who saved you." The pale chao said.

" Even though I'm no longer your maid, I shall serve you till death, my lady." Spic smiled.

" I could've sworn I killed all of those before I left." Shadow wondered as the group headed back to the lab.

" Here it is. This is my room." Maria said as she punched a password into the keypad. Inside was everything a teen would want. She opened her closet, nodded, and kicked the three chao out of the room. A minute later, she stepped out wearing an outfit that spies wore in the movies, complete with shades. A big gun was in a holster at her side.

" Whoa! Sweet!" Flash whooped as Scribbles dropped. Span gave a little thumbs-up at Maria and the group ran back to the lab where Ghost and the others were waiting.

" Nice gun…" Ghost smiled.

" The gang's all here! Next stop, the time garden!" Shadow yelled as the group ran down the long corridor. At the end was a door leading to another lab. Ghost blew the door open and dashed into the room where the door with the Time Garden rested.

" Stand back!" Ghost said as he shot the door down.

" You're making my job a whole lot easier. Now step aside unless you want killed." Trez growled as he walked out from behind a computer.

" Over our dead bodies!" Flash screamed.

" Ah, yes. The sonic chao and his wife. So, Amy didn't do what I asked. I sent her to destroy you both." Trez chuckled softly. Flash charged at the evil chao, who in turn vanished and grabbed the sonic chao by the neck. Flame shot an arrow while Trez's back was turned. The gray chao whipped around, grabbed the arrow, and threw Flash at Flame. Spic tried to thwack Trez with her hammer when Trez took her by the head and slammed her onto the hard floor. Shadow used Chaos Control to try and hit Trez. A small gray hand blocked his punch.

" Ever wonder how the military learned about Project Shadow? That's right, I tipped them off. Now, the Ultimate Life Form relies on such weak friends." The evil chao sneered as he knocked Shadow's legs out from under him. Maria fired a shot at Trez only to get the gun knocked out of her hands and sent flying to the other side of the room. Span and Scribbles both tried to beat their opponent, but it ended in the two chao being pinned to the wall by shruiken. Only Ghost stood between Trez and the Time Garden.

" I guess you want a piece of me too?" Trez smirked as Ghost began to shoot at the enemy chao. Trez tried to hit Ghost, only to hit air. Ghost then body checked Trez into a wall. Ghost whipped out an Emerald.

" Chaos Control!" he yelled as he vanished into a green flash. Trez became a green light as the two clashed at supersonic speed. They both broke out at the same time.

" You fight just like your father did trying to protect his darling Spectra. He died just because he thought he could take me down." Trez said. Ghost turned into Hyper Ghost and charged at the killer of his parents. The punch hit Trez square in the face, but Trez didn't seem to be affected by the blow. Shadow then threw himself onto the villain.

" You fools just don't get it. I'm stronger than all of you combined! I will rule the world!" Trez roared as his body began to glow red.

" CHAOS NIGHTMARE!" Trez yelled as an energy field blew everyone away. When it wore off, the gang was unconscious. Trez walked through the door and stepped into the warp.

And with that, Trez begins his plans for world domination. Review!
