Things are starting to heat up! We've got two fights coming up!
Chapter 11: What I'm Made Of…Trez's dark soul stared at Trez for what seemed as an eternity. Finally, he spoke.
" Do you realize exactly what you're up against?" It asked.
" I'm fighting a cheap copy of myself… Big deal." Trez retorted. The dark soul summoned his dark arm blade and charged. Trez hopped out of the way and tried to do the same, but failed.
" What's wrong? Can't summon your sword? It was because of me that you could do that!" DS growled as Trez swung at him. The blow hit only an afterimage.
" He's fast!" Trez said to himself unaware of DS behind him.
" Wrong…" he sneered as he head butted the chao. A knee in the gut followed up the attack. Trez doubled over in pain as DS grabbed his head ball.
" You're just too slow!" the evil copy yelled while slamming Trez into the ground. DS then tried to stomp on the chao when he rolled out of the way and whipped out the Chaos Emerald.
" CHAOS BOLT!" Trez roared as the Emerald crackled with electricity. A barrage of lightning struck DS dead on. When the smoke cleared, DS still stood. He looked at Trez, then at the spot where he was hit, then back to Trez.
" What was that?" DS asked. He then summoned lightning to strike Trez. It hit its target, leaving Trez sprawled on the ground. The chao tried to move, but winced in pain at even the slightest twitch.
" I failed… I couldn't beat my inner darkness…" Trez thought as DS walked up to him. The monstrosity summoned a trident and drove it into the ground, pinning Trez.
" Give it up! Embrace the evil in your soul!" DS growled.
" N-never…" Trez gasped. In his mind, Ghost stood next to him.
" Is this it? Is this the limit to your fighting spirit? If it is, then don't bother me again!" He yelled. Trez began to struggle, fire burned in his eyes.
" I'm not going to lose! I won't give up!" Trez roared as his body erupted in flames. The intensity melted DS's trident. Trez rose and gathered fire around his arm and formed a fire blade. The blazing inferno of a chao charged at his dark doppelganger, his sword swinging wildly.
" What drives you? Why do you fight?" Ghost asked.
" Show the world the courage that you showed me. Bring hope to the world…" Erin gasped.
" It's time to show you what I'm made of!" Trez yelled as he speared the dark soul with the flame sword. Trez lifted DS off the ground and swung his arm, cutting through the evil copy. Black Doom took advantage of this to grab the Emerald and split. Trez then passed out from the fight.
At Stardust Speedway, Team Chao saw Team Metal Chao waiting for them at the start of a long and winding course.
" Where are my kids?" Ghost asked.
" They are at the end of this race course. If you win, you can have them…"
' Some thing tells me we don't have a choice.' Scribbles wrote.
' Nope…' Scrawl sketched.
