Narrator: Last time, Sonic and his team arrived to the ARK's cannon system, where they were confronted by Drago, Enya, Sleet, Dingo, Sleuth, and his army of clones. However, due to Team Sonic's increased power level from their previous battles, they managed to make short work of these villainous fiends, and Sleet's clones proved no match for them. But as more clones came in, Blaze, David, Stryker, Cali, Arik, Shira, Ripley, Maple, and Guntiver joined the party and cleaned house. But before our heroes could celebrate, Enya appeared on the scene with one of the fake star emeralds created by Jaakuna. She used its power to give her a boost of energy. And with it, the villainous she-wolf gave Sonic and his group a run for their money, using an army of clones to attack the heroes at every angle. But just as she was winning, Sonic and Shadow were able to exploit an opening, and managed to ward off Enya. Back with the Wolfpack, they were about to wail on Drago. But the treacherous wolf had one last trump card up his sleeve, the power of the fake star emeralds he and his pals were given. And with it, he was once again able to increase his power beyond the limits. In the midst of the battle, Drago mortally injures Lupe, which enrages the Wolfpack. But as the battle continued, Drago began to experience horrible side effects from abusing more than one fake emerald. As Marcos was about to deliver the finishing blow, he is stopped by Enya, who takes the deforming Drago back to Jaakuna. Thankfully, Lupe was healed of her injuries as the battle ended. Sonic and his friends head for Jaakuna's location, while the Road Rovers remain together to ward off anymore enemies that could be lurking within the area. But now, another battle between good and evil is about to begin. And this time, its an all out brawl between two brothers; Blitz and Geist. Who will be the victor? Let's find out.
[Blitz entered the room where Geist had been waiting]
Blitz: (looks in all directions) (thinking) {Geist... Where are you? I know you're in here...}
[Suddenly, Blitz hears a faint sinister chuckle]
Voice: Heh heh heh heh heh…
Blitz: If you're trying to scare me brother, it's not working. So save us both the trouble and come on out!
Geist's Voice: As you wish, dear brother...
[Geist emerged from the shadows in front of Blitz]
Blitz: You're looking as vile as ever.
Geist: Why thank you, my dear brother. I take that as a compliment.
Blitz: Of course you would.
[Geist noticed Blitz holding a sword in a sheath and recognized it]
Geist: Hey... That sword... Is... Is that?
Blitz: Yes, it's father's sword, Miriam.
Geist: No one has used that sword in SO long...
Blitz: Because father wanted to pass it on to someone who was worthy.
Geist: That old fool... That sword should be mine!
Blitz: Well it's not! You think after everything you've done you deserve to wield this sword?! You lost that right the moment you desired revenge!
Geist: So, that's the way it is, eh?! Father chose a pathetic loser like you to wield that sword instead of me?! Well then, I'll just have to take it from you by force! When I'm done with you, you will beg me to end your miserable life!
Blitz: The fact you believe I'm still a pathetic loser and will beg you for anything just shows how unworthy you really are! I swear on our parents names, I will defeat you here and now!
Geist: Enough talk! Let's finish this once for all!
[Blitz pulls out Miriam and readies himself]
Blitz: Bring it on you demented demon!
[The two Dobermans charge at each other ready to kill. Meanwhile in the ARK's core, Enya and Drago appeared before Jaakuna]
Jaakuna: Welcome back... I believe all has gone well?
Enya: Not quite. Drago used more than one emerald.
Jaakuna: He what?!
Drago: (in pain) Help meeee…
Jaakuna: (sighs) Very well.
[Jaakuna sends a wave of energy that surrounds Drago and the black substance starts expanding in mass slowly consuming him]
Enya: What are you doing?!
Jaakuna: Relax, I'm just giving Drago a place to recover, he'll need this stuff to properly adjust to all that power he absorbed.
Drago: Will... Will I be my handsome sexy self again...?
Jaakuna: Of course, now just relax and let the darkness embrace you.
Drago: (whimpers)
Jaakuna: Don't worry, no harm will come to you, I give you my word, so rest.
Drago: (sniffs) Okay...
[The black goop engulfs all but Drago's head]
Enya: I'll get those worthless mutts for you, Drago.
[Meanwhile, back with the heroes]
Hershey: Heads up everyone!
[The villains come charging with Neo MAS in front]
Purlinn: Mauler, you're up!
Mauler: Don't need to tell me twice!
[Mauler jumps into the air and proceeds to fire a shower of static projectiles from his claws all over the heroes. Hunter and Sheng dodge, but some of the others like Muzzle and Guntiver are struck, stunning them. Sheng and Hunter look at each other as they dodge the projectiles]
Hunter: We need to take that guy out.
Sheng: Yeah, I think so too.
[Hunter and Sheng continue to dodge. Suddenly Hunter comes up with a plan]
Hunter: I know what to do! Get close to Vlad! Ask him to launch you high into the air! I'll run around you guys to make a barrier of wind!
Sheng: What about the cheetahs, you know their speed surpasses yours.
Huntress: Leave them to me and father.
Hunter: Right.
Steel: Alright, let's go!
Sheng: Go get em!
[Huntress and Steel charge at the enemy]
Soduko: Here comes those mutts, Sokudo!
Sokudo: They should be no problem. Let's just strike at the same time.
Soduko: Works for me!
Huntress: Oh no you don't!
[Huntress intercepts them and Steel lands two blows that render them seemingly unconscious]
Huntress: Guess we ended them quicker than they expected.
Steel: Don't be too sure.
[The cheetahs soon get back up and attack them]
Soduko: Bitch!
Huntress: Prick!
Steele: Enough!
[Steele proceeds to take out his gun and fire off at the cheetahs, but both were too fast]
Sokudo: You can't hit us with that!
Steele: You know what, I can't. But that doesn't mean I can't use something else!
Soduko: Oh really?
Steele opens his vest and takes out a row of land minds
Soduko and Sokudo: WHAT THE?!
Steele: Let's see if you can dodge these!
[Steele throws the mines out, and hinder's the cheetah's advance]
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Soduko and Sokudo: CRAP!
[They barely evade the explosion]
Steele: How do you like that?
Soduko: YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!
[Soduko and Sokudo both charge Steele at the same time, unleashing an unseeable barrage of attacks that strike Steele all across his body]
BAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAM!
Huntress: No!
Hunter: DAD!
[The cheetahs stop their assualt and let Steele drop to his knees, before completely falling forward onto his face]
Soduko: Hah! We got the old geezer!
Sokudo: How does it feel to go down for once?
Hunter and Huntress: Dad!
Sokudo: Don't worry about him. Daddy is tough, isn't he. I'm sure he can take a lot more abuse than this...
Amy: Then let's see if you can!
[Amy comes at the cheetahs and hits them with her Hammer Spin]
Soduko: AGH!
Sokudo: GAH!
[They got flying into the felo trio]
Trio: Agh!
Sally: Good shot, Amy.
Amy: Thanks!
[Damon steps up]
Future Marcos: Oh look Geist Jr's here.
Damon: Well I guess I have to now handle these assholes...
Vida: Guess that butt whooping you got didn't sink in.
Vadi: Just like Daddy...never learns his lesson.
Damon: Allow me to show you the mistakes I have since acknowledged since our last scuffel. All your kvetching aside I will finally make my point clear.
Aurs: Oh we sincerely doubt that.
Damon: Actions speak louder than words.
Linun: That they do. So let yours do the talking.
[Damon growls a little before unleashing a massive flare of energy. It appears Damon now had managed to get a fragment of the artifical emerald. Everyone shields themselves as the energy flare blows debris past them. Meanwhile with Akito, Connor, Sonic and his group they felt a dark power]
Akito: Is that...Geist?
Connor: I think it could be. That energy is just like his. But I am sensing two similar powers.
Shadow: No, this isn't Geist's. While it is dark, it's different.
Akito: Could it be Damon?
Silver: Pretty sure it is. Because I sense some of Damon's qualities behind this.
Sonic: The others can handle that psycho pup, especially Tsunami. We should focus on getting to Jaakuna.
Blaze: I agree. Time is running out.
Tails: Let's get going.
[Back with Blitz and Geist, the insane Doberman was in disbelief at Blitz's abilities]
Geist: I do not believe what I see...! So, you've changed, brother.
Blitz: I have told you before, I am no longer that spineless sellout I was once.
Geist: So you have. And I admire you for that. But it won't save you!
Blitz: That's what you think!
[Geist dives in and slashes with his scythe, only to be blocked by Blitz's Miriam sword]
CLANG!
[Blitz pushes Geist back with a mighty swing]
Geist: URGH!
[Geist backflips and lands on his feet. He growls and he wipes the blood from his face]
Blitz: It doesn't have to be this way, Geist! You can still do the right thing!
Geist: Nien! Its too late for me, brother... My soul is already tainted... We fight to the end! The bitter end!
Blitz: You never learn, do you?
Geist: It is our destiny, brother! Embrace it!
Blitz: I pity you...
Geist: I don't need your pity!
[Geist charges Blitz, who counters his attack with a defesnive swing of the sword, pushing Geist back. But Geist doesn't let up, and persists. The two brother continue their battle]
TANG! TANG! CLANG! CLANG! TING! TING!
Blitz: (panting)
Geist: You're better... Much better...
Blitz: I did learn much from Tsunami Sensei.
Geist: That traitor? It figures...
Blitz: You shouldn't be surprised. You did kill his owner in cold blood.
Geist: As if that matters to me! HAH!
[Blitz dodged Geist's attacked and intended to slash him]
Blitz: You expect people to blindly follow you when you have no sense of loyalty yourself. Life isn't all about you!
Geist: Speak for yourself! You damn hypocrite!
Blitz: That was the old me, and he's gone!
[Blitz charges and swipes his sword widely at Geist, who effortlessly blocks them with the blade of his scythe]
TING! TING! TONG! CLANG!
[Finally, Blitz manages to land a slashing blow to Geist, which slashes his chest. Blood sprays out of him]
Geist: AAGH! (snarls) RAAHHH!
Blitz: How does that feel brother? Not fun when you get all cut up is it?
Geist: I'LL KILL YOU!
Blitz: Not gonna happen!
[The two brothers continue their battle. Meanwhile, our focus is directed back to Sonic and company]
Sonic: Man, I forgot how long these hallways are.
Knuckles: Yeah. Its like a maze...
Tails: Even with this map, I still can't wrap my head around it.
Akito: Shadow, this was your home once. Think you can help us out?
Shadow: It's been a long time, but I think I might remember if I saw the map.
Sally: I think NICOLE can help us with that.
Shadow: Well I can still help, no offense but there are secrets here not even a computer can detect.
Blaze: He's right. We'll just have to rely on our own wits and ingenuity on this one.
[Akito nodded and noticed that Connor was looking down the opposite side of the hall with a worried face]
Akito: You concerned about your father?
Connor: Yes. I am.
Akito: I know how you feel. I'm worried about Fenrir as well, but I am certain they can handle those creeps, they're the toughest guys I ever met.
Connor: I agree. I guess it's frivelous to worry.
Akito: Especially considering we got to face that star killing witch soon.
Connor: We'll all handle her together.
Akito: That's right.
[Back with the remaining heroes they managed to subdue almost all the villains]
Fenrir: Is that all you got?
[Malice, Psycho, Mauler, Eva, Damon, Sokudo, Orenj, and Soduko were struggling to stay up]
Eva: You haven't won yet!
[Damon collapses on his knees, only being kept up by his hands. His expression indicated he was desperate]
Malice: Psycho, I think it's time we got out of here and take whoever we can with us.
[Psycho looks over at Malice, worried]
Psycho: You know they'll want to take them all.
Malice: Yeah, but if we're all caught. What's the point?
Psycho: What's even the point of trying anymore?
Malice: Not what I'm saying. It's smarter to cut our losses and try again some other time.
Psycho: I see...
Malice: Let's do so while we still can.
Psycho: Right!
[They throw a couple of flash and smoke bombs toward the heroes]
Malice: Cover your eyes!
[The remaining villains covered their eyes as flash bombs went off]
Sally: My eyes!
Malice: Now!
[Everyone but Damon escapes, who is seen still in a trance looking at the floor]
Sulea: Wait why didn't you go with them?
[Damon looks up at Sulea]
Damon: It's not worth it. I can't keep going through in these conditions. If you can't beat them, join them. I intend to do that, upon reflection.
Amy: And how do we know we can trust what you say?
Damon: Actions speak louder than words. I intend to prove myself. But I will he holding on to my Dark Emerald copy for when the fight really begins. Because I see now I can be different. The definition of insanity is to repeat the same thing over again and expect the same result. What I've done so far hasn't made a difference. But with you guys, I can.
Shira: That dark emerald is too dangerous, if you want to start showing you can change, get rid of it.
Damon: Fine...
[Damon takes the emerald and smashes it into dust]
Stilette: Traitorous pup, once your father finds out you turned on us, he'll kill you himself.
Damon: I'll be sure to make him pay. Along with anyone else who stands on our way. Now I suggest you leave while you still can!
Vadi: Out of the question, we let enough of them escape. Vida, let's slap some collars on them to suppress their powers.
Vida: Right.
Damon: Give me one of those collars as well. I want to have the honor of putting it on my dad once he falls.
Vida: Very well.
[Vida hands Damon a nullifying collar]
Damon: You two were right... I could be making different choices with what I do in life. I hope you can forgive me, if you ever have the strength or will too...
Linun: You want forgiveness, earn it. Same with trust.
Aurs: Once you do that, we'll be able to have the will and strength to forgive you.
Damon: Alright.
Vida: Think we'll need some help collaring these criminals. You all care to lend us a hand?
Sally: Of course. Everyone grab a collar.
[They all start collaring the enemies while Damon takes this chance to slip by and to where his father and uncle were fighting]
Damon: I'm coming for you Dad... Just hang on, Uncle Blitz.
[Back with the two Doberman, they were clashing like madmen]
TING TING TING TING TING TING TING TING TING! SLASH SLASH! WOOSH! WOOSH! SLASH! SLASH!
[They soon stopped to catch their breath]
Geist: (panting) *thinking* {He's better than I thought... I clearly underestimated him...}
Blitz: (panting) *thinking* {I gotta keep going}
Geist: Alright. That does it. No more fun and games.
Blitz: You got that right.
Geist: Humph...
[Blitz and Geist charge. And as they are within reach of each other, they cross slash each other. Suddenly, A large gash appears on Geist, and Blood blasts out of him]
Geist: ARGH!
Blitz: This is pointless, brother. Surrender now and turn yourself in.
Geist: Heh...
Blitz: Huh?!
[Suddenly, a large gash wound appears on Blitz's torso. Blood sprays out of him. He falls on his knees, clinging to his wound]
Geist: Gotcha... Heh heh heh… *stands back up* You didn't think it was going to be that easy... Did you?
Blitz: (groans) Let my guard down...
Geist: You thought you had me, didn't you? Well, the joke's on you! DIE!
[Geist tries to stab Blitz but a current of electricity intercepts him]
Geist: (painful grunts)
Blitz: Don't think for a second you'll kill me so easily.
Geist: Where... Where did that power come from?!
[Geist falls on his knees]
Blitz: It comes... From within my very soul...
Geist: Then feel the wrath of MY RAGE!
[Geist covers himself in intense dark demonic aura]
Blitz: Fight fire with fire. Or in this case, LIGHTNING!
[Blitz charges up with electric aura]
Geist: Come, brother! Having power is one thing, but knowing how to use it is another!
Blitz: Don't talk like you're any differeent! All those powers you got, you waste them on selfish and unjust reasons! You say I'm a disgrace to the family, but I'm not the one who turned my back on everything our family stood for!
Geist: Enough talk! Let's see who covers whom in the other's blood first!
Blitz: If that's what you want, then so be it!
[The two brothers go at it again, this time they go full force on each other. Neither one of them shows any mercy as they attack each other savagely]
Geist: Hah! Hyah! GRRAAAGGGHHH!
Bliz: HYET!
CLANG! TANG! TONG! SLASH! CLANG!
[After the last clash, the brothers jump a distance from each other]
Geist: Time to end this! Ghostly Phantom Slash!
Blitz: Huh?!
[The scene around them darkens, and becomes all distorted. Then afterimages of Geist all appear before Blitz. They circle around him. Suddenly, the after images all slash at Blitz's shoulder, forearm, thigh, and knee, injuring him]
Blitz: URGH!
[Suddenly, Geist appears in back of him, and kicks him into a wall. Geist charges and delivers a punch, which Blitz barely dodges. Geist punches a hole in the wall. Geist teleports three times, and attacks with his scythe, breaking Blitz's defense, and causing him to lose his grip on the Miriam Sword. The sword flies over head, and the blade lands into the ground]
Geist: You're defenseless, brother... But wait, it would be too dull to finish you off so soon.
[Geist teleports next to Blitz, and uppercuts him into the air. Then he jumps into the air, and proceeds to wail on him mercilessly with a combination of multiple punches and kicks. And then he knocks him down to the ground. Blitz spits out a stream of blood from his mouth]
Blitz: (coughs)
[Geist the grabs his scythe, and goes in for the kill]
Geist: Say hello to our father!
[Before he could harm him, a flash of light appeared before Blitz. And a voice is heard]
Voice: Blitz... Blitz!
Blitz: Who said that? Whose there?
[Out of the light appears a ghostly image of Krieger]
Krieger: Don't ever give up, my son...
Blitz: Father?!
Krieger: Blitz, you must get up and fight. You're holding back. Why?
Blitz: Well... Because... Because...
Krieger: I know deep down you grieve for your brother. But there's nothing you can do to save him. He has given his soul to the devil long ago. He's insane beyond redemption. You must stop him at all costs. He must not be allowed to hurt anybody else.
Blitz: You're right, father. It's time I went all out.
Krieger: Blitz...
[Blitz starts surging with electricity]
Geist: What?!
Krieger: The sword is powered by your very aura. Your very spirit. Use it to unlock its full potential. Then you will strike him down!
Blitz: Yes Father...
[The light illuminates the scenery, and Krieger's ghost disappears into the light. Then, as if on cue, Blitz charges up the sword with his own battle aura. And as Geist comes in for the kill, Blitz wards him off with a super charged slash]
TANG!
[Geist goes flying back. He hits the wall behind him, leaving a huge hole in it]
Geist: That... That power...!
Blitz: Yes, brother. It's the very power Father wielded!
Geist: What?! That's impossible!
Blitz: You can't deny what you see, Geist! The proof is right in front you!
[Blitz charges and takes another swing at Geist with the fully charged up Miriam Sword. But this time his movements are twice as fast and swift as they were before. And dealing some powerful blows]
SLASH! TANG! TONG! TANG!
[Geist blocks the blade with his scythe]
Geist: You're faster than before...
Blitz: I'm just getting started!
Geist: (growls) I will not be bested by you!
Blitz: You already were before.
Geist: That was a fluke!
[Geist teleports in several locations around Blitz. And appears in front of him. But Blitz delivers a punch to his face]
Blitz: I knew you were going to do that!
Geist: How?!
Blitz: Have you not noticed? Your once swift movements... Are slowly losing their edge.
Geist: No! I still have my edge! I refuse to accept defeat by some worthless mutt who should have never been born!
[Geist creates after images of himself, and they all attack Blitz simultaneously]
Blitz: (closes his eyes) Focus... Their attacks are real. And so are these wounds. But only one of them is the real Geist. *As the after images all charge and close in on Blitz, Blitz opens his eyes( There!
[Blitz slashes once, and destroys Geist's scythe, shattering it to pieces with a super charged slash]
Geist: What?!
Blitz: Your power is forged from hate. Mine is forged from its opposite; love. And love is stronger than hate.
Geist: Love is nothing but a bunch of lies and you're a fool to believe in it so greatly.
Blitz: You're wrong!
Geist: Oh am I? Can love make up for years of pain and suffering? Does it keep you fed every day? No one in this world really loves anyone other than themselves, that's the truth of this putrid world.
Blitz: Nein! Love is a powerful thing! Its what keeps us all bonded together as one!
Geist: Then you can all die together!
[Geist charges his demonic aura, and darts out at Blitz]
Blitz: No more playing around. I'm ending this now!
Geist: (enraged screams)
[Blitz pulls all the electric energy into his right hand]
Blitz: Feel the lightning!
SHING! SLICE!
[Blitz hits Geist with the full force of his attack and the evil Doberman was engulfed in electricity]
Geist: ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!
[The electricity dies down and Geist was all battered and bruised, he could barely stand]
Geist: (weak and in German) No... I... Can't... Lose... I will... Kill... You... I will... Kill you... All... Vengeance... Vengeance... Is... Is... M... M... M... Mine...
Blitz: You're a sad pitiful dog, Geist. I almost feel sorry for you.
[Geist collapses. And then he vomits blood on the ground]
Geist: Why? I'm superior, I shouldn't have lost to the likes of you!
Blitz: Give it up, Geist. It's over.
Geist: Never! I refuse to admit defeat to anyone, least of all you.
[Damon comes up from behind Geist and collars him]
Blitz: Damon?!
Geist: (growls) YOU?!
Damon: My service to you is no longer needed. But what you do need is to be stopped once and for all, for the sake of my friends and the world given how much trouble you've caused.
Geist: Foolish pup. You know as well as I do that you have no friends.
Damon: Oh really?
Geist: Any friends you did have left you long ago.
Damon: Well I've made new friends!
Geist: What? You mean those pests that you tried to help kill? You think they'll forgive you that fast? You're even more naïve than your mother.
Damon: At least I can change the course of my life, unlike you.
Geist: You cannot deny the darkness in you, son. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
Damon: Unless it's on a hill. Because you sure seem to be on one.
Blitz: Damon...
Geist: You forget, you're every bit as much a monster as I am!
Damon: Wrong! One way or another, it ends now!
Blitz: Your rein of terror is over, brother...
Geist: (chuckles) To think... Defeated by my own flesh and blood...
Damon: Well we have other issues to deal with now.
Blitz: Right, let's take him back to the others.
[Meanwhile, back with the other heroes]
Shira: That's the last of them.
Boomer: Whew. Thank God.
Huntress: Though some of them got away.
Fenrir: We'll get them after this is all over.
Roger: Now what?
Vida: For now, we wait.
Rex: Wait?
Vadi: Yes. For Sonic and them to stop that crazy star killer.
Huntress: I just hope they're okay.
Amy: They'll be fine. They're the toughest Mobians you'll ever come across.
[Meanwhile, back with Jaakuna and her remaining followers]
Jaakuna: Purasu, Minasu! How much longer until my emerald is repaired?
Parusu: Not much longer, my empress. We are seeing slow but steady progress.
Minasu: It should be done within an hour at most.
Jaakuna: Perfect. *notices Drago's cocoon shaking* And it seems our like our little wolf is about to awaken.
[The cocoon rips open]
Enya: Yes, Drago rise!
[Suddenly Drago began pulling himself out, his fur was now extremely all inky black with only his jacket, speedo, and torn boots remaining. His eyes were glowing yellow]
Jaakuna: How do you feel Drago?
Drago: I'm rather... Upset... And vengeful... In fact, I'm FURIOUS!
Jaakuna: My, my. Sounds like you could use some stress relief. And luckily for you we have guests coming our way, they should be arriving soon. Perhaps you can go greet them?
Drago: (growls quietly) Guests, you say?
Jaakuna: That's right and if I'm guessing correctly, there will be 14 of them.
Drago: Is that right? Well then. I'll teach them a lesson they won't soon forget.
Jaakuna: I'm sure you will.
[And so another battle has ended. Geist has been defeated and put in his place for good. But it seems Drago is not yet out of the picture. And as usual, he is back with a vengeance. But the question remains; just how much more powerful has he become? And how will the next battle transpire? There's only one way to find the answers; and that is to stay tuned for the next episode of Sonic Rovers]
To be continued...
