Getting chapters of a bunch of stories done! THANK YOU!

Anyway, onto the chapter! Enjoy.

Dawn and Melody were in chains, blood was spilling on the ground, Dawn finally felt the pain in her side. She looked at her partner, Melody was bleeding from her back, but the swim type hero chao was too focused on the dark chao to even notice, though she felt some pain.

"What will we do?" Dawn asked herself, she looked to her right, there was a few objects such as boxes and tools. But it wasn't enough to break them free from the tightened chains.

"Hey, Dawn. Do you think Light Chaos and Angel Chaos know we are here?" Melody looked ahead and saw Golden. Dawn turned to Melody, but before she could open her mouth to say something in response, she saw Golden, she was coming up to them. She gasped with delight.

Golden stepped into the room and saw her friend Melody, she didn't know who Dawn was though. But she nodded to her and spoke.

"Nice to see that you both are alright." Golden sighed, she smiled at Dawn now.

"Yeah, it's good to see you." Melody smiled she was trying to get out of the chains.

"We need your help..." Dawn grunted.

"Sure, but I don't want to get caught, I'm pretending to help Dark Chaos." Golden grinned, she flew over to them and broke the chains with her special attacks. Melody almost fainted, she was losing too much blood.

"Dawn..." She was feeling faint.

"Dawn, you need to get her out of here, go back to Hero Garden!" Golden said in a firm tone. She looked into her eyes.

"Yes, I will do that! I'm hurt too." Dawn replied, showing her side wounds before picking up Melody and flying off. Golden turned to see that Angel Chaos and Light Chaos were nearby, she ran out of the prison room. Dawn and Melody behind her. Dawn took another path to the exit as she flew out of the huge ship and back to Hero Garden with Melody in her arms.

Golden ran up to Angel Chaos.

"Mother!" Golden called. Angel Chaos turned to see her daughter. She looked at her in delight as they hugged each other. Light Chaos was happy for them, but he was still concerned about Dark Chaos.

"We need to stop Dark Chaos." Light Chaos looked at the main room of the ship, they were about to get Dark Chaos when a few dark chao entered the room.

"Are you all going somewhere?" A fly dark chao hissed, he was in the air. More dark chao came from behind him and growled.

"We have to fight!" Light Chaos growled. Golden got out her beam sword and got ready while Angel Chaos stood her ground.

"You think you can win against all of us?" The fly dark chao took out a blue beam sword and pointed it at them. All of the dark chao took out beam swords as well and the battle was going to start.

Golden ran towards a swim dark chao and slashed his side, but she missed, the swim chao tried to slice at her head but Golden dodged it and kicked the swim dark chao in the back. She then heard Wacky yelling and screaming as he came at her with sull speed, his green beam sword in his paws.

Golden was standing her ground, waiting for the evil green neutral chao to come closer to her, once he was near, she slashed him in half. Wacky let out a silent yelp and fell to the ground. The dark chao grew angry and continued to fight them. Angel Chaos used her light powers to threw the fly dark chao away while Light Chaos took care of the power dark chao.

Golden was busy fighting off the normal dark chao, a few dark run chao were getting into the fight with their yellow beam swords. Golden attacked them, they were starting to become too much as she was kicked and send flying. Dark Chaos heard the commotion and flew in to see that Golden, Angel Chaos and Light Chaos were battling with his troops. He growled and pushed Light Chaos into the glass window of the ship. He was mad.

"So you came back to fight! We will battle and you will lose!" Dark Chaos roared and slammed the Light Chaos chao into the floor. Light Chaos yelped and tried to get back up but he was slashed in the back and kicked towards the dark chao that Angel Chaos was fighting, she looked to her left to see that Light Chaos was getting injured by the Dark Chaos chao. Angel Chaos used her super light attack and send all of the dark chao flying into walls. Golden was surprised to her mother fighting with so much power. She focused on Dark Chaos now.

Angel Chaos swooped in and bumped into Dark Chaos real hard, sending him into a wall. Light Chaos was coughing up blood.

"Light Chaos..." Angel Chaos growled, then she looked at Dark Chaos. He wasn't done yet, he swooped in to grab Golden and use her as a threat again, but a flashing light blinded him. He covered his eyes as a ship was lowered at the side of the ship. A few chao jumped out and landed.

Ed, Shiny, Rainbow and Shadow were there. They looked at Dark Chaos and his troops who were ready to battle once more.

"Grr... YOU!" Dark Chaos was finally able to see who was there. He saw his old troop, Shadow looking him in the eyes.

"Yeah, it's me. You better now touch Golden or I will kill you..." Shadow growled. Angel Chaos was surprised that Shadow came.

"How did you get here?" Angel Chaos wondered.

"Forget that!" Dark Chaos roared and flew towards Shadow, but the run dark chao dodged his attack and ran over to a beam sword that was on the ground, he picked it up. Shiny got out her beam sword as Ed found one on the ground. Angel Chaos was helping Light Chaos get up, he grunted and breathed heavily.

"Well... I tried..." He gasped.

"I know, get back to Chao Garden, we will handle this fight." Angel Chaos calmy told him, Light refused but he then nodded and flew away. Dark Chaos was attacking Ed and Golden. Shiny stabbed him in the back with her red beam sword.

"GAAAAAAUH!" Dark Chaos growled, blood was dripping from his back and onto the sword, he slapped Shiny away and tried to get the sword out of his back, he was in pain now. Ed punched the evil chao in the face while Golden used her pink beam sword and stabbed him in the head. Angel Chaos used her light beam as the attack landed correctly and sent the Chaos chao flying into the glass of the ship towards the controls.

The dark chao watched the battle, but their leader's voice rang out.

"KILL THEM ALL!" Dark Chaos roared.

All of the dark chao roared and continued to fight, they passed Wacky's carcass and fought with Shiny, Ed, Angel Chaos, Golden, and Rainbow. Shadow was face to face with his leader. He wanted to protect Golden.

Rainbow picked up the green beam sword that Wacky dropped, he looked back at the dead neutral chao and faced a dark swim chao, they were in a battle with each other. Rainbow finally punched the dark chao and sliced it in half. A female fly dark chao was attacking Shiny, Shiny swiped at her with her beam sword, but the fly dark chao whacked the beam sword out of her paws with her tail.

"Nice try, you need to fight fair my lady!" The female fly dark chao laughed. Shiny growled and continued to fight her without the sword.

Shadow was dodging attacks from Dark Chaos, he slashed his leader's eye as the chaos chao screamed in pain, Shadow punched Dark Chaos and slammed him into the ground. Ed was getting tired from the fight, he knew he was getting too old to battle. He finally killed the last normal dark chao as it died.

It was now up to Shadow and Golden to finish their fight. Shiny was taking down the female darck chao as she flew away telling the other dark chao to retreat. They listened to her and ran off. Dark Chaos growled.

"You think you can end me?" Dark Chaos growled. He flew up into the air, his wounds were healed quickly as he swooped down and knocked Shadow into a bunch of walls, he was flying so far into the ship that he was knocked out. Golden gasped and battled her fake leader instead.

"You want me? Well you can't have me now! You are going to have to kill me!" Golden shouted at Dark Chaos. Angel Chaos watched.

"You? Ha! I don't need you anymore! I'm done fighting over you!" Dark Chaos took out his large golden beam sword, the sword he stole from Angel Chaos a long time ago.

"That's my beam sword!" Angel Chaos growled.

"Too bad, this isn't your fight!" Dark Chaos snapped at her and faced Golden alone. Angel Chaos growled and wanted to attack him, but she knew her daughter could win this for them all. She watched them fight.

Golden was ready as she stood her ground, Dark Chaos flew at her and slashed her side, blood was getting splashed in mid air, but that didn't stop the golden chao from fighting. Golden grunted a bit but flew after him. She slashed at Dark Chaos, but he dodged her attack and knocked her out of the air. He flew up into space now, he was out of the ship. Angel Chaos followed them and watched more of their battle. Golden was trying to attack but he used his dark blast to send her flying far from him.

Golden held onto the ball and threw it right back at him, Dark Chaos gasped as he was hit with his own attack as the blast blew up. Space dust covered the black air as Golden looked ahead, she was seeing if he was down, but Dark Chaos appeared behind her and stabbed her back. Golden yelped in pain as she thrashed, she wasn't going to give in. She turned and stabbed him in the belly and dug the sword deep inside him. Dark Chaos was coughing up blood as he tried to get the sword out, but it was no use. Shadow finall came up from behind her and punched him. Dark Chaos felt the pain in his jaw, Shiny, Ed, and Rainbow watched from inside of the ship.

Golden felt like she was tasting blood. The golden beam sword was still in her back, she coughed, blood was floating in space around her, her very own blood. She couldn't let Shadow get hurt, she wanted to protect the one that she loved. With the last ounce of her strength, she flew up to Dark Chaos, who slashed Shadow and knocked him down to Chao Garden. She jammed herself into his back and came out. Blood was spilling into space like crazy as the Dark Chaos chao yelped in pain and closed his eyes. Dark Chaos was dead.

Golden looked like she was fainting as she closed her eyes. She felt like she was going into a deep dream. Light was coming to her. She came face to face with another golden chao. He looked down at her and smiled.

"Who are you?" Golden was confused.

"You don't know who I am?" The male golden chao was a bit confused to why she would ask such a question.


~OOO~

Angel Chaos cried as she took Golden down to Hero Garden. She held Golden in her arms and hugged her, blood was on her paws, but she didn't care. Golden was her final daughter, he last one.

Every hero chao gasped, even Magic.

"Did Shadow do this?" Magic growled.

"No... Golden was killed by Dark Chaos..." Angel Chaos sniffled. Dawn ran up to her while Melody was resting on the ground, she was too injured to do anything, but she heard the news, she lied there crying.

Magic slowly walked up to her, he saw Golden, blood was coming out from her mouth, dripping into the grass which stained it. Magic poked at the golden chao, seeing if she would wake up, but it was no use.

"Please..." Dawn cried, tears slowly running down her cheeks. The fly hero chao was begging her to wake up. Golden could not hear her cries or her words. Light Chaos flew up to the Hero Garden with Shadow in his arms, though he was injured, he layed Shadow down near the trees.

Shadow woke up slowly and saw the Chaos chao looking down at him, he jerked up and looked around. Shiny and Ed's ship came back into the garden as Rainbow climbed out first. He saw Golden in Angel Chaos's arms. He panicked and came to see her. Shadow quickly got to his feet and slowly came up from behind Angel Chaos.

"Angel Chaos, is it true? Please turn around and let me see my future mate." Shadow pleaded. Angel Chaos closed her eyes and turned around, the dark run chao saw the dead gold hero chao in her arms. Golden wasn't moving, her blood was dripping into the grass some more. Shadow's eyes filled with tears as he choked on his own words.

"N-no... No no no... Please no... Golden, please don't do this to me, please..." Shadow was on his knees now. The dark run chao couldn't stand to see his mate die.

"There is nothing we can all do now..." Shiny sighed.

"She was brave." Ed looked down. He was crying a bit too. Magic looked at Shadow for a while.

"You care about her?" Magic's tone changed.

"It's why I came back into space to fight for her." Shadow replied.

"She was protecting you, wasn't she?" Dawn asked the dark run chao.

"Yes..." Shadow admitted, she died to save him from Dark Chaos.

"Is Dark Chaos dead?" Melody asked weakly. Angel Chaos nodded to her. She proceeded to take Golden's body to the top of chao rock as a gray cacoon surrounded her dead body, the blood was spilled out. Once the caccon no longer showed her inside, her body magically disppeared.

Magic saw the magic dust go into the air, Golden moved on. Shadow was still really sad, all of the hero chao respected him for his duty. He was still trying to save her, but he couldn't. Golden knew that one of them had to die to save all of Chao World.

"If only... If only you were still here with me..." Shadow sniffled.


~OOO~

"Well, I might have an idea to who you are..." Golden looked at him for a long time.

"I am your father, Xavier..." The golden run type male chao smiled.

"I heard so much about you. Where am I?" Golden asked, she was looking around, gold clouds were surrounding them.

"You are in heaven." Xavier answered, he grinned at the other dead hero chao that flew by.

"I am? How do I get back home?" Golden wondered, she was concerned about Shadow and the others.

"No, you don't understand my sweet heart. You cannot return, you have died." Xavier sighed, he looked at her for a while. Golden didn't understand.

"I was stabbed, I didn't think I would die. How did I? Did that sword really-" Golden cut herself off.

"Yes, that sword killed you. It was the sword of Angel Chaos, that sword kills a chao with one stab." Xavier explained, Golden gasped and felt herself, she wasn't feeling any pain like she was when she was stabbed. She looked back up at her father.

"Do you think Shadow is okay?" She asked her father. Xavier nodded deeply and looked at her and explained.

"Shadow is fine... I can feel his living soul." Xavier nodded.

"Thank heavens... So if I'm up here, what do I do?" Golden was confused, she wanted to help Shadow and the others more, but she didn't know what to do.

"You can watch over Shadow until his time comes." Xavier chuckled. Golden didn't like leaving the others to weep about her, she wanted to be with her mother and everyone else, but this gave more time to see her father, to watch what he does. She nodded and looked down, she finally saw Shadow, he was on chao rock, crying. She felt bad for him, she wanted to help him.

"Wave your paw around..." Xavier saw that she didn't know how to make her mate feel that she as doing well.

Golden waved her paw around as magic dust came down and swirled around the dark run chao. Shadow looked at the dust and felt like Golden was giving him a message. Angel Chaos saw this too, she turned to Shadow and looked at him. Shiny and Ed were pleased to know that she was telling them that she was alright. Dawn and Melody were seeing the dust fly around them, Magic saw the dust too and smiled at it.

"Golden, you will do fine up here." Her father patted her head. Golden's halo turned into a gold color as she watched her mate and her friends from above.


~OOO~

Later on that day, Magic found a chao egg under the fountain, it was in the hiding spot where Dawn would rest. He picked up the egg and flew out of the hiding place and went up to chao rock. Shadow was sitting there, looking up at the sky. He saw the clouds, one cloud was shaped like Golden. He smiled at it, she was showing him signs that things were okay.

"Hey, Shadow. I think Golden may have left you with something." Magic placed the egg down. Shadow turned around and saw the egg. He looked at it and poked it.

"She left me this?" Shadow was starting to smile.

"She cared about you and I'm sorry that I attacked you." Magic stuttered.

"It's alright..." Shadow sighed, he was happy that she left the egg for him. He was going to like the new baby.

From below, Melody was resting while Dawn was next to her, sleeping. Angel Chaos was with Light Chaos in Chao Garden, they were talking about how Golden was brave, and the new egg that Shadow would have to take care of.

Things were changing for the gardens as they were becoming normal again...
