In this chapter, Desdemona and the other members of the team are waiting for the final battle to begin. They are excited to see Desdemonas return to his normal speed. He is pleased to see that his opponent is not as fast as he is, but he is still able to execute his moves correctly. He tells them that he has never received any credit for his abilities, and that he is a "freak" with a "big brain" who has been trained by the "dance devil" .
