The Beginning

NOBODY'S POV

5 Weeks Later

The breeze lifted. Her jet-black hair flapped against her face. Covering her flame-like mask. Her loose, sleeveless jacket tried to join the dance of wind. 'What's the reason of this, Blackqueen? Demanded an armed Dan Kuso. Blackqueen smirked. Everything mysterious about her, from her mask, to her boots.

'Yeah,' started Shun Kazami. 'Why did you call this battle?' Blackqueen held a purple bakugan ball. 'To finish what I started.' She glared at Dan. 'Is that right Kuso?'

Where we go back 5 weeks

Dan's POV

'I can't believe Shun and Ace get to battle!' I whined for the tenth time this hour. 'Save it Master Dan, Mira isn't going to change her mind.' Said Barren glumly. I knew he wanted to battle, but I really wanted to battle. Why Shun, My head grumbled. I'm a way better brawler than him. I could hear the announcer. Focus. I wasn't getting distracted. We were running along the long corridor then suddenly, CRASH! The second later I was on the carpeted floor, completely clueless about what I did or crashed into. I was lying on the ground. 'Are you alright Dan?' I sat up to hear Mira's voice. I stared at who I bumped into. 'Yeah,' was the only thing I could breathe.

The girl was about my age. Older even. She was wearing a green tank top and dark green leggings. She was too, lying on the floor. Her red hair spread out of its ponytail. That's when she saw me. 'Sorry!' She got to her feet and ran in the opposite direction. 'Weird.' Said Marucho. I have to agree with him. I wondered simply.

Arri's POV

That was so embarrassing! I thought as I ran down the corridor looking for my teammate. We're up against two masked guys, and I bump into a stranger in the middle of a hallway!

'Will the Death-Shadows make their way to the area in 15 minutes.' The speakers blared. Damn, I cursed. We're due 15 minutes! I had to find Rin quickly.

'Welcome everyone to the semi-finales of the tournament.' The smug announcer said through his microphone. 'Whoever wins this battle will go up against the brawling masters Lync and Volt!'

The crowd practically screamed at their weird names. What's so special about them? I asked myself curiously.

'But first, let's meet the teams that made it into the semi-finales!' 'First are the Death-Shadows! And their opponents, the mysterious Bakugan Battle Brawlers!'

'Scared Brawlers?' Retorted my partner. Her masked tilted to her left. 'What! No way!' A light green haired boy shouted as Rin adjusted her mask. By the way he dressed, (purple clothes and the gauntlet,) he was a Darkus brawler.

'Calm down Ace,' The hooded looking Ventus brawler turned to us. 'Are we gonna talk or brawl for the rest of the battle?'

Wow, I thought. Touchy. 'Well, look "Ace," look like you have someone to watch your back.' And I glared at Mr.-Shot Ventus Brawler. 'And no, this isn't a battle without us crushing you.'

'Gatecard set! Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand!' My bakugan popped out. It was a ten-winged bird with beady, amber eyes. 'Go Ventus Thunderbird!'

'Finally, we can start the battle.' ''Ace'' muttered under his breath.

'Gatecard set!' He threw down a purple gatecard. 'Bakugan brawl! Bakugan stand!' His bakugan was introduced in thick purple ink. 'Rise Darkus Percival!'

"I'm right behind you Ace," said ''Percival''.

'Well bad luck boys,' chimed Rin.'Because you're going down.'

'Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Let's show these boys the real meaning of battle!'

Her bakugan was a combination of a cats heads and a horses body. The only flash of colour apart from purple was her charming red eyes and her painted fingernail on each arm. In total was two pairs of arms. Her name was Morganna.

'Beat, that.'

'With pleasure. Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Ventus Ingram!' And out came a six winged green bird.

'Ability Activate! Green wind storm!'

Suddenly a green tornado blasted the opponents bakugan high in the sky. "Percival'' and "Ingram" landed with a thump.

'Ingram/Percival! Are you alright?!' "Ace" and Ninja boy both shouted.

''I'm fine Ace,'

''Me to, Shun.'

'Now this is what we call a battle,' I saw the boys look up at what Rin said. Rin was short for Riley. Riley Black.

'Fine with us ladies, Ability Activate! Continues Dance, Phoenix Position!'

Suddenly his bird disappeared and then appeared in front of Thunderbird. It started punching him so fast you can barely see, and Thunderbird turned back into ball form. I growled as I picked him up as a ball.

Phantom life-force 70%

'Well that was easy,' I glared at ''Shun.'' 'I'll deal with it, Double Ability Activate! Thunder Clash plus Laser Beam!

In the same clouds purple lightning electrocuted Ingram, while painful beams came out of Morganna's hands and struck Ingram turning him back into a ball.

'That's a powerful ability card. And I guess it's one of the strongest.' Pointed out Ace.

Shun picked Ingram up. 'You are not helping,' he said through gritted teeth.

'Thank you for your compliment ''Ace Grit,'' but my opinion hasn't change about you losers.'

'Laugh all you like lady, but when we're done you'll be the one who's the loser.'

'Ability Activate!' ''Darkus Thunder." Interrupted his bakugan. Percival power increased to 750gs.

'Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Go Ventus Thunderbird/ Ingram!'

Now we're even. I smirked.

'Double Ability Activate! Night Explorer plus Black Maiden. '

Then, Morganna power decreased to 650gs. 'And Black Maiden is an Ability Card that nullifies any ability card.'

Rin growled lowly, Shun smirked.

'So you're forcing me to use my gatecard, huh?' Said Rin.

'Well, you got your wish, Gatecard open! Witches Spell!' Percival turned back into a ball and returned to Ace.

'Witches Spell is a command card that sends all bakugan with the same attribute as Morganna off the field.'

Ace grumbled something that I couldn't hear. 'Ability Activate! Wind Power Soaring Strike Shot!' Ingram transformed into a different bird and it flew past Morganna and she turned back into a ball.

Rin life-force 70%

'Double Ability Activate! Shockwind plus Breezewave!'

'Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Rise Percival! Percival?' Ace threw Percival down, but like a boomerang it came back to him.

'Oh, I forgot. Shockwind doesn't allow any bakugan that has been sent off the field. Your bakugan isn't allowed back into the battle until "Ninja boy" beats me in this battle.' I charmed. Sounding sweetly as ever.

Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! It's two against one Morganna!' Ace gawped as Rin summond Morganna into the field.

'Ah, and it also allows allies to join the battle, Sea hair.' I said calmly.

'Ability Activate! Shadow Echo!' Shun held his gauntlet as his Ability jewel shone.

Ingram power increased to 800gs.

Now he was levelled with Morganna.

Suddenly Ingram evaporated into the ground.

'Huh, where did he go?' I bent on my hands and knees trying to detect him. Suddenly he appeared behind Morganna.

Like she knew what will happen next she held her gauntlet. 'Ability Activate! Electric Dodge!' Morganna's power level rose to 1010gs.

'Lets finish this!' 'I don't think so ladies!' I turned as Shun made a comment. 'Huh?' I was puzzled. 'We're not here to play nice, we got a job to do.' 'And what's that job, to lose to girls?' Mocked Rin.

'That's none of your concern,' provoked Ace. 'Sorry to announce ladies, but the winners,' 'Are us!' They chorused as they took off their masks. 'So, we finally agree on something?' Muttered Ace. 'Mhpp..' Was all Shun said.

Ingram disappeared into the floor again and appeared behind Thunderbird. 'Thunderbird watch out!' It was too late though, Thunderbird turned back into a ball.

Phantom life-force zero

I'm out of the game, great. I thought angrily. 'As you said, two against one.' Said Ace, copying her comeback.

'Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Let's go, Percival!'

'Triple Ability Activate! Darkus Driver plus Tri-Gunner and don't forget Night Explorer!'

Percival at 950gs

Morganna at 800gs. I heard her gauntlet say.

Brawlers combined at 1750gs.

'Ready to lose lady?' Said a confident Ace. 'Well, no. 'Coz your bakugan ain't smart enough.'

'What!?'

'Fusion Ability Activate! Raining magic!'

Suddenly small sparks rained out from the sky. Even the announcer was surprised. 'Well, as you can see, it's raining diamonds!'

Power exchange complete. Rin's gauntlet said.

Rin and I exchanged glances.

Morganna at 1750gs

Brawlers at 800gs

The look on Shun said it all, but Ace was calm. 'Ability activate!' I was puzzled. With that power they wouldn't stand a chance against Morganna.

'Misty Shadow!' I looked at my gauntlet, Morganna's power returned to her base level. That rat, I cursed.

Rin's expression changed rapidly. Her charm faded but her confidence stood still. 'GO!' They all shouted.

There was so much smoke I heard a smash of something. Glass maybe? When the foggy landscape cam visible, I saw Thunderbird in his true form!

Then ground suddenly shook. And after that, Bakugan came from the ground. With them, came four kids my age as well.

'So Shun, you didn't have to battle Vexos to overload the dimension controller? Just get your butt kicked by a girl!' Laughed a boy. Hang on, I head told me. Wasn't that the boy you bumped into while in the corridor?

'There are bakugan in the field, but there are no brawlers with them!' Panicked the announcer. What an idiot, I remarked to myself.

'The bakugan are intelligent beings,' announced an orange-haired girl to the crowd. 'We are not toys to play with.' Said a red dragon. Suddenly the crowd broke into a lot of nodding people.

As the crowd started to departure I remembered something. 'Hey Kid!' I shouted getting the smug brawlers attention.

'What?!' He whined.

'What you and your friends were doing in that corridor when we crashed?' Now that got his attention. 'Huh? Your that redhead?'

Even Rin's eyes widened. 'Yeah.' I replied plainly. 'But I'm not any "Redhead".' I took off my mask. 'My name is Arri Simmons.' He still said nothing. 'Are you even gonna answer my question?'

'Er... Uh.. I was, well we were... Um...' He was so bad at making an excuse I interrupted him.

'Eh, no. You weren't Er Uh I was, well we were Uming. You weren't even in the tournament or watching it. Putting together what your girlfriend said, you weren't doing what you just said.'

'SHE'S NOT MY GIRLFRIEND!' Everyone covered their ear except me.

'So answer my QUESTION!' I screamed in a high-pitched voice.

'We were freeing the bakugan.' Said a orange-haired girl.

'Freeing the bakugan.' Rin raised an eyebrow. 'Freeing the bakugan? When you put it like that, it's like you want to announce to the world that you are the new improved ''Ghostbusters".'

I looked at the boys. Only "Ace" and fantasy purple haired guy weren't cracking up with laughter.

'What's so funny guys?' "Ginger girl" said.

''Ghostbusters are a term of ghosts.' Said a red dragon. 'A ghost is a presence that haunts you after they die. Ghostbusters are people that dispose them.'

'Cooorrrreeeeccccttttt!' Rin said pulling off her mask. 'One point! you're through to the semi-finales!'

We all bursted with laughter. Then Shun glanced at Rin. 'What?' She looked around her. But nothing was behind her. He whispered something to Brown-hair guy.

'Yeah dude! You're right!' It was goggles-guy who looked Rin in the eye. 'What!?' Said Rin.

'Your eyes look exactly like Dan's.' Now that got team freeing-bakugan's attention.

'So, what you do? I mean like freeing the bakugan? Do you kick Vexos butt?' I said in excitement.

'I know,' Said "Ghostbusters girl". 'Why don't you join the Bakugan Battle Brawlers Resistance?'

(A lot of arguing and reasoning later)

RIN'S POV

'So Mira, Who's your bakugan?' I asked as Mira was giving Arri and I a tour of the trailer. 'Sub-terra Wilda.' She held out Wilda (Ball form).

'Hello.' He said.

'Hi.' I said back.

'So you're a Vestal, right?' Asked Dan Kuso. (I still prefer the name goggles-guy.) 'No. Not really.'

'WHAT!' I heard everyone shout except Arri.

'So, let me get this straight.' Started Shun. But Dan interrupted him. 'You're not a Vestal! So, are you human?'

I nodded at both questions.

-Flashback-

I was up in the mountains. Then suddenly I heard screaming. 'Ahhhh!' Then it stopped. I followed where I last heard it. Nothing was there. I started to climb the trees, since I nothing better to do. When I reached the top, I sighed at the beauty of the moon.

'Boo!' Said a voice behind me.

'Ahhhhh!' I shrieked to see my best friend, Shay Ryan behind me.

'How did you get up here so fast?!' I demanded furiously.

'The way of Shay Ryan,' he answered cooly. I sighed.

'What next? Your own theme tune?!'

'Actually, I was thinking about that. Maybe it could be some kind of funky, awesome type of style.' Shay suggested.

I muttered something about him & idiots combined.

'Sorry Rin, but I gotta go. Dad'll be mad if he finds out I'm here.' I nodded. Shay's father didn't consider lateness or failure.

As he disappeared further down into the mountains, I grew more bored every second. Suddenly, the branch started to give way. As I fell I saw a huge portal. Very sure what could happen next, I was sucked like a vacuum into another dimension.

I opened my eyes. Where the forest had been, a bare landscape. I looked in many direction but everywhere was plain.

'Rocks, boulders, earth, sand, more sand, more rocks.' I grumbled whilst walking in circles.

'You know, this place used to be more than destroyed land.' Said a feminine voice. I looked behind me, but nothing was there.

'Down here,' I looked down to see a purple bakugan on a large boulder. 'My name is Darkus Morganna the dark witch.'

'Hi,' my voice feebly said. 'I'm Rin.'

'Before the Vestals came here, it was quite a beautiful place.' Carried on Morganna.

'Vestals?' My confidence to speak came back.

'Yes, Vestals.' She said. 'They were overpopulated they expanded here, to New Vestroia.' I stared around again.

'This is New Vestroia? Where bakugan live and stuff?' I asked curiously. If the bakugan lived here, what a life it would be.

'Yes. There was life before the Vexos came and sucked it up.'

'Vexos?' Questions began blooming inside my head.

'The Vexos are the best brawlers in Vestal. They serve Prince Hydron and King Zenoheld. The people who wanted us imprisoned.' I could see she was getting angry so I changed the subject a bit.

'Do you want to be my partner?' I asked hopefully.

That seemed to brighten her mood. I was happy when she agreed.

'One things for sure, you need a gauntlet to brawl in New Vestroia.'

I turned around to see a red-headed girl with purple, sparkling eyes and a small green ball on her shoulder.

'A gauntlet?'

'Yeah, a gauntlet. Are all of you humans all clueless and stupid as this?'

'Who are you calling stupid?!' Morganna stood up for me, (or rather floated?)

'What is a gauntlet anyway?' I saw something weird on her left arm.

This is a gauntlet.' She showed her ''Gauntlet''. Then, she threw me a black and purple gauntlet. Fortunately, I caught it. I wasn't in the schools baseball team for nothing.

'First, you upload this card,' she held a card that had a green orb in the middle. And slotted it through the card holder which glowed when it was inserted. 'And that is how you activate the freeze field.' Red-Head smirked an evil smile. I wasn't frightened at all. School bullies were like that. 'Now, let's see what you're made of.'

I repeated her with the card strategy. 'B-but I haven't played bakugan in 4 years!' I protested.

'Too bad, for a chicken.' She added.

My anger started to rise. 'Who are you calling chicken Vestal?' I said through gritted teeth.

'Here's the deal,' Said miss insult. 'You lose, leave this planet before me and Thunderbird make you sorry that you came.' She was going to say something else, but I had an urge to interrupt.

'If I win, what's in it for me?'

'You win, and I will be your loyal companion in the bakugan tournament.' Before I could think about anything she added. 'The tournament is where loads of brawlers come and battle to see who is the best. And in the finales, the pair or person gets to battle Lync and Volt, the Vexos.'

'Put me in Rin! If Vexos are involved in it I'm definitely in!' I had almost forgot that Morganna was still there.

'See we agree!' Where her bakugan was on her shoulder, it was now between her two fingers. 'Gatecrd set!' Red-Head threw down a Ventus gatecard sending a green vibration across the landing.

'Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand!' 'Leave before we make you sorry!' Said a male, eight-winged bird with piercing amber eyes screeched.

'Prepare to get your butts kicked, gatecard set!' I threw down my purple gatecard.

'Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Rise Darkus Morganna!'

Battle Comencing; (said my gauntlet)

Morganna: 800gs

Thunderbird:650gs

'How did you get that much power?!' Shouted Red-Head from across the field.

I decided not to say anything.

'Ability card set, I heard her gauntlet said. She slotted her card in, did a fist-pump into the air, and brought it back down saying; 'Ability Activate! Green Wind Storm!'

Morganna was lauched in the air by a tornado sky-high. She landed with a thump. I gritted my teeth.

That

is

it.

I pulled out a random card. 'Ability Activate! Shadow Shock!' Thunderbird's power started to go down slowly. A massive grin swept across my face.

'Ability Activate! Emerald Star!' An emerald star shone in the sky above next to the sun.

Thunderbirds power stopped decreasing leaving him at 500gs. And Morganna's power suddenly decreased slowly. Then from the star it stroke Morganna with a green tornado.

'Power exchange complete;' said her gauntlet.

'Emerald Star is a special ability that can only be used in a one to one battle,' said the girl simply. 'It decreases the opponents Gs and changes their Gs.'

I bit my lip. She had the advantage and Morganna's power was now at 400gs and lowering. Morganna, I thought. Where have I heard that name before?

That's when it struck me. 4 years ago, ( with the help of Shay Ryan,) I learned about a powerful shapeshifter bakugan called Darkus Morganna. I learned everything about her including her abilities, gatecards and weaknesses.

I thought a little bit. 'Gatecard open! Dark Aura!' Thunderbird turned back into a ball. Red-Head picked up her bakugan. As I caught Morganna, I heard my gauntlet say; battle terminated.

'Battle terminated?' Then I saw my opponent walk up to me. 'I can see that you are a strong brawler,' she held out a hand. 'And would you be honoured to be my partner in the tornement?'

I took her hand. 'Yeah. But one question, what's your name?'

The girl smiled. 'My name is Arri Simmons.'

'My name is Rin Black.' I introduced myself.

I saw Arri do a fist pump in the air. 'I am ready to kick some Vexos butt!'

I smiled. 'Yeah, so am I.'
