Drew and Geek flew towards Wraith as he flew towards them. They all connected, them jumped back, a sonic boom echoing across the entire Realm. Drew dashed forward first. His body ignited, and he blazed forth with a Flame Charge. Geek came in behind him, charging up a Hand Pulse attack. Wraith fired off several Shadow Balls to try and stop their advance. It missed. Drew got close, but Wraith slammed him into the ground with his elbow. With that move however, he didn't see Geek jump up behind Drew and fire off his charged Hand Pulse. The attack slammed into Wraith, preventing him from hurting Drew more. Drew got up, shaking his head, allowed the rubble to roll off, then got up again.

Wraith teleported behind Geek and tried using a quick Dark Pulse. Geek used his Extreme Speed to jump up, dodging the attack, then sent spikes into Wraith, forcing him to step back. Drew jumped over the spikes and slammed into Wraith with a Body Slam. Wraith stepped back even further, but recovered and grabbed Drew by the leg and flipped him into the air. Just before Wraith slammed him with a Shadow Ball, Geek used his Extreme Speed to slam into Wraith, then hit him in the gut with a Hand Pulse. Wraith, although hit with such powerful attacks, grabbed Geek's hand and threw him into the ground.

Pain split Geek in half. He felt like half of his body was being melted while the other half was being ripped apart. He couldn't take another hit like that. In fact, he couldn't take another hit at all. Wraith stood above him, then raised his fists and got ready to slam him into the ground. Drew landed on Wraith's back and fired a Dragon Pulse into Wraith's neck, causing him to try and pluck Drew off. Geek forced himself up and watched as Wraith grabbed Drew by the scarf and threw him towards the spikes Geek had thrown up earlier. Geek lowered the spikes, then lifted them off the ground and threw them at Wraith. Drew landed, then lifted himself back up.

Wraith slammed each spike with his fist and blew them each into tiny bits. Geek was fully up now, and he dashed forward, using his Extreme Speed to make more distance. Drew dashed in from another direction, forcing Wraith to decide. He decided on both. Wraith sent a massive torrent of water in all directions, but it wasn't normal water. It was all black and icky looking, more like slime. Geek jumped over it with an Extreme Speed, but Drew was less fortunate. The wave slammed Drew and sent him flying backwards. Geek was momentarily distracted, which allowed Wraith to slam Geek with his back hand, sending Geek into Drew, making them slam into the observation portion of the Realm Wraith had been looking out of earlier. The two struggled to get up, but Drew was too weak after that water attack, and Geek was pretty much broken in every part of his body.

Wraith laughed hysterically. He floated over to the two and lifted Drew, then slammed him into the ground hard. All that came after was a slight groan, then nothing. Wraith grabbed Geek and lifted his injured body off the ground. He brought Geek right up to his glowing red eyes, and laughed again.

"Last time, you were at least a challenge. This time, you're nothing but a weakling. Not even able to take two hits, unlike last time. You should have listened to me and gave up," Wraith mocked.

"Trust me..." Geek replied weakly, "I wanted to."

"So why are you here now?" Wraith asked.

"Because of them," Geek said as he pointed to all of his friends, lined up in their bubbles all next to the platform.

"Because of your friends? Which I defeated? While I stole from you? Why them?" Wraith continued to ask. 

He was finding this quite amusing.

"Because they're my friends. Moss is my friend. Auroras is my friend. Drew is one of my best friends, and Dist is my friend. They all helped me. They all saved me from your reach. So Wraith, I'm here because I am gonna beat you, no matter what it takes," Geek replied, his breath slowing and his eyes drooping.
