Tails and Dawn stepped up to the podium and faced each other; Dawn seemed to be excited; "Finally, we will see who has the greatest strength! The Shadow or the original!" he announced. Tails shook his head; "why can't we just get along?" he asked hopefully as Dawn scoffed; "You and I? Friends? I cannot see that happening in the near future!" he said as the battlefield changed to a misty forest like area.

"The battlefield supports both Dawn and Tails! The Mystic ruins! Begin!" the voice shouted as Dawn quickly thrust his palm into Tails stomach! "You have to be faster than that!" he mocked as he tried to kick Tails head but Tails blocked it easily; "Same for you!" he commented as they began a struggle of body blows. Bakuda watched intently; "That's it Tails! Use your training…" he thought as Tails had delivered a powerful roundhouse to Dawns right arm. Dakuba was also watching with interest; "Show that worm how to fight properly!" he thought as Dawn had struck Tails in the chin with an uppercut. Tails flew backwards after the previous strike and jumped onto a tree branch before he could smash into it.

Tails launched at him while chanting in his head; "Ka… me… ha… he… ha!" and launched a barrage of small blast toward his opponent only for Dawn to divert then into the rock surrounding them which made a dust storm… when the dust settled, Tails could be seen in a headlock with Dawn continuously pummelling his side! Tails drew forward his arm and thrust his elbow back into Dawns midsection! Dawn instantly let go as Tails jumped back onto the tree branch.

Tails glared at Dawn uneasily; "He knows all my moves! How can I beat him!" he screamed in his head as Dawn launched at Tails with amazing speed and knocked him off his perch; "Come on! You're amusing me! Don't give up now!" he joked as he sent rapid ki blasts through the forest, Tails jumped behind a tree and hid his ki from him; "If he knows all the moves I had when we separated… then he will not know any moves from after!" he realised as he congratulated himself on figuring out a move that he hadn't told Bakuda about yet… he drew his blade and powered to his maximum, giving away his position to Dawn, who instantly threw a blast to the tree.

Tails jumped from behind it into plain sight and began a spindash while levitating in the air and holding his sword in front of him, this resulted in Tails forming into a rotating blade! Tails charged at Dawn yelling; "Rising Sun!" and tried to slice him open! Dawn dodged but was cut across the cheek, he placed his hand to his face and wiped the blood off; "So he actually made he lose blood… Heh Heh Heh… THAT WILL BE THE LAST TIME!" he shouted insanely as he shot to the ground to dodge another rush from Tails.

Dawn lowered into a Kameha position; "KA… ME… HA… ME…" began to chant slowly as he drew from his body the energy he required… Tails flew up high and began his descent upon Dawn who grinned insanely; "IT IS OVER!!! HAAAAAA!!!" Dawn screamed as he let out his massive blast, Tails, while rotating could see the blast very clearly; "Come on!" he clanged as he charge full pelt toward the beam and struck it. Tails was holding the blast back with only his hands because he couldn't rotate any more… he quickly place his sword back into his sheath before the blast hit… Dawn was laughing insanely; "You will never survive Tails!" as he fed more power into his blast. Tails held on with difficulty; "I … won't… LOSE!!!" he screamed as he forced himself into the beam and began pushing it back with his body! Dawn was stunned; "NO WAY!" he screamed as he put all he had into the blast that he hoped would blast tails into oblivion.

Bakuda was watching the fight nervously; "Tails… that is very reckless… you could destroy your entire body that way!" he thoughtas Tails was pushed back by the new power flowing into the beam… Dakuba watched in awe; "I must admit… Tails is better than I thought…" he murmured as Tails pushed the beam back again while a flame like aura surrounded him…

"Kioken!" Tails yelled as he quickly dodged to the left and let the beam pass him; he glanced to the beam as it exploded in space just out of range from the planet. He turned back to Dawn to see him directly in front of him smirking! Before Tails could react, he felt something perpetrate his torso…

Silence…

Bakuda was stunned at the sudden outcome, Dakuba raised his eyebrow and smiled amused as Tails began to gag, a female white wolf with a black strip across her eyes whispered; "That was cheap…" as others murmured in agreement… Bakuda was shaking in anger… Zephyr glanced at Dawn then to Tails; "He didn't deserve that…" he said as he closed his fist and shock it slightly…

Tails glanced down to his stomach and found that Dawn had pierced him with his sword… Dawn smirked again; "Never take your eyes off your opponent!" he whispered in Tails ear as he ripped the blade out harshly and raised his hand to Tails face. Tails spoke softly; "Why? Why …are you… evil?" he asked with pain in every syllable… Dawn frowned; "I need no reason but this: I am your shadow… it is what I was born to do… Goodbye Tails…" he whispered, and launched a massive blast that was reflected in Tails half closed eyes…

Silence…

Dawn lowered himself to the round as he placed his 'Sword of first light' into his sheath, completely ignoring the fact it was completely stained in blood… as he touched ground, the battlefield changed back to the waiting room. Everyone parted for him as he made his way back to Dakuba who slapped him on the back in congratulations. Bakuda looked at the ground; "Aura and Tails are gone… both by people that had no remorse… I will see that they do not see the prize of this tournament! I swear upon my honour as a Saiyan and Kitsune…" he said as he placed his hand over his heart.

The voice boomed; "The winner is Dawn! The next match is Adam! The Godling of light! Vs. Crystal! Prepare for battle!" the female wolf that Bakuda guessed to be Crystal, glanced to Dawn; "For your ways off battle, after I have succeeded in defeating Adam. I will destroy you!" she shouted to him as Dawn merely ignored her and watched as Adam walked to the podium with Crystal. Adam looked at Crystal and nodded slowly as Crystal nodded back; "I will stay with my promise!" she shouted in her mind.
