Both teams watched as the camera crew optimized their setup to accommodate sundown. Soar restaged his micpack.
"You're out of time." Tails warned. Ash had gotten in a few minutes of much needed rest before his fight with Surge. He got right up, off the fox, and made his way toward the center. Zooey moved to the sideline as Kit did the same.
"He's weak. Finish him off." Starline instructed before giving Surge a push to the center.
"I have not been instructed to kill you." Surge began.
Ash frowned. "Isn't that a lovely introduction…" He sighed. "I wouldn't guess there's any use talking to you."
"I have no use for you. Fight me." She commanded.
Ash laughed and took his stance. Soar pushed the competitors back as they were too close. "Man, I'll need a new line for this. Fighters ready? ENGAGE!"
Ash took the offensive. Just as Soar cleared his way, he launched himself over the entire gap with a frontflip. He grabbed her neck with his legs and successfully threw Surge down.
Surge was the first to get up. She grabbed Ash's neck with her right arm and punched him in the head with her left. He fought his way out of her grip only to be kicked in the stomach.
"ZOOEY!" He shrieked, falling over directly after. Zooey knew what she had to do. She dashed into the combat zone, ready to strike. She hit Surge on the left side, but her staff got caught. Surge slowly started to pull her in using the staff and then stared. Zooey stared back until she felt jolts run through her body. Surge had shocked her through the metal staff. She let go and Zooey took it back to the sidelines.
"You see that?" Surge menaced to Ash, who had just gotten up. "I shock like a taser."
Ash attempted to copy Starline's series of hops to kick. Surge had seen this and knew what to do. She dove at Ash's right leg but missed. He grabbed Surge upside down and set up for a piledriver. Before he could proceed, Surge radiated shocks out her body into Ash. He was temporarily paralyzed and could not let go of Surge. The spectators could hear the shocks and knew Ash could not move.
Once he managed to drop Surge, he fell backward and did not get up. Soar flew over and delivered the ten count. "Round four goes to Team China! Stay tuned for the final round!"
Team China cheered for Surge. "See that? You're next!" Kit taunted, pointing to Mina, now gathered around Ash.
Starline covered Kit's mouth. "Shh. Settle." He ordered.
After taking Ash back to the sideline, Mina made an announcement. "Tails, take care of him. I'm ready now." She pointed to Surge. "Let's do this."
