"Begin" The same mysterious voice shouted from the first two rounds.
Kero looked at what appeared to be wood, but instead of the usual green leaves that surrounded wood there were only withered dry leaves. Anti-Wood's skin was also not light green, it was grey. On her head rested two horns, which made her look like a wood devil.
Kero began the fight by firing a fireball at wood thinking it would set her on fire, which would end the match, but Anti-Wood just created a wall of wood to block the flames.
"Come on, don't you even want to try and win this match" Anti-Wood said in a mocking tone.
Anti-Wood then saw this as a chance to attack, and sent a spear of right at Kero's heart. Seeing this as a simple attack Kero just flew up into the air to dodge the spear. It was then that Kero noticed that Anti-Wood had sent a flurry of black splinters at Kero. Kero, looking panicked, sent fireball after fireball at the splinter shower, but to no avail as the splinters just kept coming. Seeing as there was no other choice, Kero transformed into his borrowed form (the stuffed-animal looking form) and then skillfully dodged all of the needles.
"Wrong choice, Wood Seal!" Anti-Wood shouted, for as she said that a giant circle of light appeared under her and Kero.
When the light faded it appeared as nothing happened, so when Kero tried to go back to his other form it came to as a shock to everyone when nothing happened.
"HA HA HA HA, as long as my curse is placed on you are never going to be your other form. You are just going to have to stay as a stuffed animal for the rest of the battle. MWA HA HA HA" Anti-Wood cackled.
As Sakura heard this from the sidelines she then remembered an event from when she was transforming the Clow cards. It was when she transformed the shield card to block out the magic preventing Yue and Kero to return to their borrowed forms (meaning that Yue couldn't turn into Julian and Kero couldn't turn into his stuffed-animal looking form).
"Ok this might turn into an issue" Kero whispered to himself.
"Look you stuffed animal give up, you can't win and you can't fight as something less than the size of Sakura's staff" Anti-Wood mocked.
Just as Kero was about to raise his hand to surrender, something no one expected happened. Someone had shouted you better not give up from the audience. When everyone turned to see who it was they thought it was Sakura, but everyone on the sides of the Star cards were shocked when they saw it was Meilin.
"Ya you heard me. So like I said before you better not give up! When you returned to your true form I began to grow respect for you as the guardian of Sakura and the cards, but if you give up now not only will the Wood idiot of darkness go to the next round you will lose the respect of your friends and most importantly me" Meilin shouted so everyone could hear.
"Hey I resent that wood idiot of darkness comment little girl, so when I am done with this stuffed animal reject you better believe that I am coming after you" Anti-Wood snarled.
"Like I care," Meilin said coolly.
While Anti-Wood and Meilin bickered about the "Wood Idiot of Darkness" comment Kero had digested what Meilin had said about losing the respect of his friends.
"Remind me to thank you Meilin after I am done with this battle" Kero shouted to Meilin.
"Do I need to remind you that you are still a useless stuffed animal" Anti-Wood spat with pure anger after her fight with Meilin.
"Allow me to shoe you" Kero said as he was flying into the sky.
Anti-Wood shrugged at this action and just used her vines to follow Kero higher and higher. Kero looked down and saw Anti-Wood coming after him and when he saw this he used this chance to sprinkle some sparks onto her. Sakura saw this and thought of the time that she caught the Firey card and later that night a storm of glowing balls had fallen during the fair.
Anti-Wood saw this as no threat and continued after Kero; little did she know there was a small wisp of smoke coming from one of her withered leaves. Kero however did see this and continued to pour down the sparks. While he was pouring the sparks he took the time to evade Anti-Wood's attacks like her shower of splinters and the spear of wood.
Soon Anti-Wood took notice of the wisp of smoke because it had turned into a small fire because of all of the sparks. Anti-Wood cursed herself for not putting on her fire shield to protect herself, but no she knew it was too late to do that so she merely floated down to the ground and waited for the flames to engulf her. In a matter of seconds the air was grey with and all that was left of Anti-Wood was a few embers. Kero floated back down to the ground and a red aura surrounded him. When the aura stopped Kero transformed into his true form again and with that the announcer called the match went to Kero.
"Again you guys got lucky and now it is time to choose the next fighter ours shall be Anti-Maze" Anti-Windy said with a chuckle.
"And for our side our fighter will be, Me" A mysterious voice shouted.
