Still up on the hill and against the backdrop of the iron sky, black, deadly disks of distorted Chaos energy as well as searing Spears of lightning crackled through the air, creating a terrestrial thunderstorm that nothing should have survived. Shadow so far had managed to dodge any and all of Black Doom's projectiles, the frustrated dark King obviously not used to fighting against an opponent who was not only wearing rocket skates, but had also spent his entire childhood and youth being trained as a weapon of mass destruction.

Around them, soldiers were alternately trying to give them a wide berth or sometimes trying to get a shot in at Shadow, but kept knocking into each other as they attempted to avoid the fallout of the battle. Shadow occasionally swerved into them, skates leaving scorched armour and burnt fur when the Ultimate Lifeform used lesser mortals as stepping stones in his mad dance with Black Doom. Shadow had made one experimental homing attack at the evil overlord directly earlier, but it was as Lara-Lee had said – there was some sort of force shield around the alien emperor and simple physical attacks simply bounced off. But Shadow didn't mind. He could bide his time until the echidnas or the other kings and queens arrived. Dodging Black Doom's attacks wasn't too hard, either. And after all...

It wasn't his army around them that their ballistic projectile attacks were currently decimating.

"Stand still!" Scourge roared as Sonic once again had dodged the slice of his blade effortlessly, dancing around his opponent as if this was a ballet stage rather than a battlefield, "This isn't a duel, you haven't even got a fucking sword! How do you even expect to win?!"

"I just don't have a sword because haven't yet seen one I liked!" Sonic called back, whirling around and expertly kicking a rock at Scourge in one fluid movement that very nearly took the green hedgehog's head off. The general deflected it at the last moment with the flat of his blade, cursing at the impact. Then he saw that his until now immaculate sword now had a rather ugly shard scratched into it.

"My blade!" The green hedgehog cried out. "You honourless wretch!"

"D'awww, did someone break your new toy?" Sonic grinned – and then promptly kicked another rock, and this time took Scourge's crown right off with it.

It was at this point that the hero of Mobius wondered whether the general could perhaps also do a Chaos Blast, if only because he looked like he was about to explode in sheer rage.

"YOU! It's no wonder you're good for nothing but being screwed, you can't even fight properly!" Scourge snarled, now advancing again, black crown forgotten in the dirt, "But I am a knight of this kingdom, and I'm going to impale you today - one way or another!" He shot forward, Sonic tensing up and evading his blade once again, but barely, and this time Scourge didn't let up, but kept driving him back. The green hedgehog was still snarling, but his movements were unaffected by his rage, still clear, precise, fast and deadly. Sonic could already see this would not end well for him, despite his earlier bravado, and when Scourge's blade actually found its mark for the first time and lopped off the tip of a quill, this was obvious for the green hedgehog, too.

"This blade is sharp, you joker. I used it on slaves before you," Scourge said with a smile. "And with it I'm going to destroy you – you and your Master! " he added with emphasis, adding another swipe with his blade that Sonic jumped neatly over, flick-flacking backwards and facing Scourge again, even calmly crossing his arms to show how unimpressed he was with the other's skill with the sword.
