Hey guys, Dragiam20 here. Just to review, there are all new masters. They are as follows:

Ray-Fire Master

Allie-Darkness Master

Gabe-Light Master

Lucy-Nature Master

Carny-Water Master

Yeah, Carny turned good. He got tired of following his dad's orders. And Alakshmi took Toji's place as blacksmith. She's actually pretty good. Sasha and Gabe have figured out how to have kids after all their years together. Ray Jr.(Rj) and Allie(Aj) were named after their parents. Their younger brother, Michael, was the only planned kid.

Aurora is Gabe and Sasha's only kid, made by combining his DNA with light creature energy. She was born as a fully formed, healthy baby. She can't be summoned, but she does call on her mother sometimes. She's Ray's girlfriend. Aqua likes Michael, and he likes her. They don't know about the other. Plus, she's Alakshmi's only child. Her dad ran off after she was born. Grant is their friend that doesn't get picked for the order...or does he?

By the way, the order has gotten a lot more lenient since Ray and the others became masters. A lot more students, and they've all been good choices. Not many have been turned away except the ones with a dark side. Well guys, this is my Kaijudo story. From Dragiam20, Enjoy!

Ray Sr.'s P.O.V.

It's been three days. My son and his friends are waiting for their acceptance into the order. Since we take two votes, we can't come to an agreement. I hate it. Gabe and Carny don't think they're ready, Lucy keeps switching sides, and Allie and I think they are.

Sasha isn't much help. She doesn't think any of them are ready. Especially her daughter. I don't know why. Even Alakshmi thinks they're ready. And she doesn't think anyone's ready. 'This meeting is really getting on my nerves. Why can't we come to an agreement?' At the moment, I was stroking Kenina while Gabe was giving some reason why the kids weren't ready. Allie was paying attention and arguing, but Carny seemed just as uninterested as me.

He's a good guy. But he wants his kids not to be involved with the kaiju world. His wife knows, but she doesn't really know the extent of it. She knows he protects the world, and she knows about the creatures, but he was really serious when he said that was all she needed to know. She didn't like it at first, but learned to live with it.

Gabe was asking me something, but I had missed the question. I looked up. "Huh? What did you say again, Gabe?" He just lowered his head and gave me his signature head shake. The big guy hadn't changed much over the years, only taller and he let his hair out from that hat. And he lost that god-awful backpack. It was useful, but got annoying when we left college.

"Ray, will you pay attention? I said, 'Why are you so intent on getting the kids in the order?'" My temper flared at that one. "Oh, so that Eric kid can get in, but the kids that have known about and loved Kaijudo their whole lives can't? You've named so many reasons why they shouldn't be let in, but that's your emotions for your daughter. Now, I'm not saying we ignore emotions, but you've missed one big point. One question. Why isn't she ready? Why aren't they all ready?"

He looked like he was going to say something, but he rethought it. 'Huh,' I smiled and sat back in my chair. 'I must have really got him thinking.' Allie being Allie, said, "Nothing to say Gabe? Haven't been like that since we had that little incident with you and Sasha." She smiled evilly, and Gabe turned a very, dark red color. I laughed, and even Carny and Lucy snickered. I smiled and looked around. 'Friends like these are one in a lifetime. These guys always have my back.' I spoke up. "Now, how about that vote?"

Ray Jr.'s P.O.V.

I was tired of waiting. Each day after school, I would have to come here to wait on the Masters' answer. It wasn't that I didn't like the Temple, it's just that unlike any of the other times I've been here, now I can't go past the lobby. 'This really sucks. I'm glad the others are here, because if they weren't, I'd have nothing to do." Right now, we were messing around with Gargle. He was seeing who could build the best stuff the fastest. We had really advanced stuff, and he basically had pocket junk. But, as usual, he'd win every time.

Then, my dad came in. His face told it all. Someone hadn't made it. We all stood up, waiting for the inevitable. I looked around at all the potential acolytes in the room. From my siblings, to Grant, my best friend, to Aurora, my girlfriend, to Aqua. At least one of us hadn't made it. Then, the other masters came in. They were holding five practice gauntlets. Each. One of us really hadn't made it.

My dad began to call names and hand us our gauntlets. "Ray Pierce-Okomoto Jr…Allie Pierce-Okomoto…Michael Pierce-Okomoto…" I could only imagine what the others were thinking. Probably something like, 'Of course those three made it.' It made me feel happy, but at the same time. Dad kept calling names after he handed us our gauntlets. "Aqua Verma…" 'That's Alakshmi's daughter too. What about Aurora and Grant?' Dad drew out the last pick, and I dreaded every second. "The last acolyte chosen is…Aurora…" She practically jumped into my arms, squealing. It surprised me, but that's just the way she is. She kissed me long and hard, drawing low growls from Gabe and Sasha.

I was happy for a short second. Then I realized what just happened. "Grant!" I looked forward, and Dad was approaching him with a Cyber Virus. "Grant Emmanuel King…I'm sorry, but you were not chosen." I got between the two. "Dad, wait! Can't he take the test again? You saw how good he was with the creatures!" Grant put his hand on my shoulder. I looked back and he was smiling. "Nah, man. I just wasn't picked. That's fine." He pushed me forward. "Go. Enjoy Kaijudo. I'll still be at school."

He smiled until the Cyber Virus made contact with his skin. Then, his face went into a blank stare. This was Grant. The kid that did well in everything. He had a natural flow with the creature. It was a little rough, but it worked. the creatures liked him. All of them except Water and Nature civilization creatures. He hated them, and they hated him. No one knew why. But now, he was just gone. No more duels, no more thinking what it'd be like to be fellow Masters. No more anything.

Gabe escorted him out, and I looked down at the floor. "This sucks." Allie came over and said, "Well, yeah. But look on the bright side. At least we made it." She smiled mom's smile and for the billionth time, I compared her to mom. They had the same hair, figure, and style. But she had dad's eyes. I looked more like my dad, but with my mom's nose. Michael was a mix. He had mom's blonde hair, except his was short, and it stood up. He had his tips dyed blue, instead of red like me and dad. He was dad's color and nose, but had mom's eyes.

The others were more or less just like their parents. Aurora looked like Sasha in human form, but with long, straight hair. A few strands covered her right eye. Aqua had sweeping, long brown hair, which she apparently got from her dad. Grant had short-cut, brown hair. He was built almost like a child Carny, but about my height.

When Gabe got back, they told us to present our gauntlets. We did so, and energy from their gauntlets flowed into ours. My gauntlet turned into a red glove with orange and black outlays. It had the order's symbol in the center of it. The finger parts were like sweeping flames. When the others' gauntlets turned, it was like we all got a sugar high at the same time.

There was cheering, kissing, hugging, congratulating, jumping, screaming, and much more. Our celebration was heard across the Temple. My dad and the other Masters laughed at our celebration. My dad finally said, "Go to the library and choose a creature partner. Then, pick two alternatives you're also good with.

We did as he said. We met Alakshmi on the way, and she hugged her daughter and kissed her cheek, much to Aqua's embarrassment. We finally got to the library and everyone started choosing tablets. When everyone had chosen all three of theirs, I was still searching for my first. Aurora stayed for a while before I told her to leave. She left with a smile and a kiss on my cheek.

I started searching through the library, scouring the shelves. When I didn't find anything, I sat on the steps. "Why can't I find anything? Everyone else found theirs so easily. What am I going to do?" My head in my hands, I sighed. My head picked up. I looked around. "Hello…?" I could have sworn I heard something. I got up when I heard it again. I followed this whispers to the Darkness corner. Dad always said that newcomers usually pick their third creature first, the their second, then their main creature.

The darkness side opened up new possibilities. I saw tablets I never saw before. One glowed. I picked it up, and I read the front of it. "V…Voidwing…" The creature's name echoed throughout the library, and I followed a second sound to a place between the Darkness and Fire shelves. I picked up a second glowing tablet, and whispered the name. "Shadeblaze…Shadeblaze, the Corruptor…" The tablet glowed and I heard a third whisper, louder than the others. I followed it into the Fire section. I saw a fiery, glowing tablet. It was tucked away in a dark corner. I picked it up and read it. "What the…? I've never seen this one before…"

"Ray! Where are you?!" It was Mom. I ran to the front of the library, hiding the new tablet between the others, just to be safe. "Hey mom!" She smiled at me. "Hey Rj, we were waiting for you. Come on. Your little girlfriend was getting anxious." I blushed hard. I hated that Mom knew what buttons to push. She always knew how to get a reaction out of me. "Yeah, ok Mom." She plucked me. "Ow…what was that for?" She looked down at me. "Go ahead. Don't leave that girl waiting. She wants to duel you first!"

I didn't wait for her to say more. I ran towards the Arena, hoping that she'd still be waiting. I got ot the Arena and she jumped down off of the side. "Hey slowpoke, you ready to lose?" I turned around and got ready. "No way princess! You're gonna lose!" I knew she hated that title, so when her eyes narrowed, I knew I'd made her angry. And angry Aurora was someone you didn't mess with.

She activated her gauntlet and summoned her third-rank creature. "Stampeding Longhorn!" The creature came out and she jumped on. "I only have two creatures. I couldn't find another. But the two I picked can go toe-to-toe with Bob!" I was impressed at her creature, but even more at her control. Especially with all the little duels going on around us.

I got on my glove and turned it on. "Voidwing!" A strange-looking Darkness creature came out and faced me. It motioned me onto it's back, and I followed its example. I got on, and it just felt right. "Okay…charge Voidwing!" The creature moved so fast, the floor became a blur. Aurora apparently expected this, and she put up a shield. "Gotta do better than that!" The duel went on for a long time before both creatures were tired.

I asked, "Give up?" She looked at me with evil eyes and said, "Not on your life." She put her hand to Longhorn's head and a surge of Mana went into the creature. Longhorn's eyes got huge and charged Voidwing. After all the blows it had taken, along with it's own fatigue, Voidwing was sluggish. The creature dodged three times before it was caught. I was thrown off, and Longhorn impaled Voidwing with it's horns. Voidwing disintegrated and returned to the Darkness civilization.

"Aww, man. Fine, I got another! Shadeblaze, the Corrupter!" A large creature came out and I climbed on. "Shadeblaze…scattershot blasts, now!" The creature shot out hundreds of blasts while Longhorn and Aurora tried to get out of the way. Longhorn pawed the ground, and Shadeblaze took it head on. "Shadeblaze, charge!" "Longhorn, charge!" Both of the creatures charged at each other. Both of us jumped off in the resulting clash. This was gonna be a good duel.

Grant's P.O.V.

As soon as that Swarmer touched me, my mind went blank. I couldn't remember anything about…what was it I was trying to remember? I looked around. I was in front of some karate dojo. I tried to remember what I was doing here. Patches of my memory were gone. I couldn't even remember the majority of the week. Or today for that matter.

I drifted around town, trying to remember what the empty patches had in them. I wandered into an alley, not noticing the soft trail of dirt I was following. When I noticed it, I stood in front of a door. It looked really old. And really dusty. I swept the dust out of the way to reveal an inscription. It said… "The Earth compels you. Join us child. Join the forgotten order."

The door opened to reveal a staircase leading down. Down into the ground. Deep underground. Out of curiosity, I stepped into the staircase. The door slammed shut behind me, leaving me in absolute darkness. I panicked and tried to pry the door back open. I had no such luck. "Really don't have a choice now." I brought out my phone, and by it's light, descended into the cavern.

I was walking for a while when I realized the ground had leveled off. I was on flat ground now. The light shone on a panel on the wall. I went up to it and put my hand in the indentation. The panel shifted in and the entire cavern lit up. It was amazing. Little lamp-like creatures hung on the ceiling. They looked as if they were asleep. A huge building-like structure shone gold in the light, revealing the transparent surface. There was a terrifying skeleton of a dragon hanging overhead.

But that wasn't the scary part. The scary part was that there was some random people in outfits standing around me. They had on on night-vision goggles, obviously to see in the dark. They had on blue and brown suits, with odd looking glove-things on their hands. There were surrounding me. "Hey, what are you doing here!?" I looked at the one who had spoken. "Um, sir…you see…uhhh…"

They were starting to get antsy. They started whispering to themselves and I heard something about, "He's the one.", and "His mana led him here." I looked around at the growing crowd of people, scared out of my mind. If I backed up too far, I'd run into one of them.

"Look…" I started. "This is obviously something I don't need to be in. And I came on her by mistake, so…" Someone bellowed, "That was not a mistake!" The crowd parted for a man in desert clothes. His voice was high for a man, but through the many layers of clothes the person had on, it looked like a man. I turned toward him, afraid. 'What did I just walk into?' The man looked down at me with wise emerald eyes. "Boy, your arrival here was not a mistake. In fact, it was destiny. Have you experienced any memory loss lately?"

I slowly nodded, not sure, but curious. "He" took off his head covering to reveal the face of a beautiful woman. Her accent was unmistakingly Middle-Eastern. "You have been rejected by the Kaijudo order. The reason was that Water and Nature creatures hate you. Our kind are their opposites. It is usual for them to experience mutual hate for us." I looked up at the woman. "Kaijudo…?"

My head started hurting, and she brought over a weird, blue, squid-like creature. "Heal and remember." She put it on my head and I remembered everything. My friends, their parents, the order, my love for the creatures…and being rejected. Ray had stood up for me. He wanted me to join. The others too. But I had accepted it. But, I still wanted to be part of Kaijudo. Then I remembered. "Wait a minute. The Masters never said anything about a sixth part of the order!"

The woman smiled. She shooed off any onlookers, and started walking with me. "Our clan has been lost to the order. While the other Ancient Masters tried to control the ruler of their Kaijudo domain, our Ancient befriended it. Both ruler and Master were cast out, forgotten. Even the realms were separated. The creatures cut off from the realm of the earth. The underground. The Ground civilization. The oldest of them all."

I looked up at her as she explained, mesmerized. "Our clan takes in those, with skills, who have been rejected by the Order. Our people have been around since the Order began. And today is our anniversary. And the Order's. But, while the Kaijudo Masters don't make a big deal out of it, we celebrate by wearing desert clothes. The same clothes and fibers that our founder wore when he befriended the Creature Ruler of the Ground civilization. That is why we are all wearing these." She pointed to the turbans and other desert-assorted clothes the duelists were wearing.

"The Creature Monarch lives at the heart of the Ground civilization, and he sometimes comes out to see his children. They inherited his resilience, his courage, and his will to go on. Some would call that stubbornness, but we see it as a sign of strength. And while the creatures themselves are few in number, they band together in ways the other civilizations never could."

I was amazed by what she had just told me. 'MORE creatures? And they sound awesome! I wonder if I can be a part of this instead of the Main order. Hmm…' "So miss, what's your name?" She said, "I could ask you the same question." I replied, "My name's Grant. And you are…?" She looked down at me and stopped walking. "My name is Master Aziza of the Ground clan. And now…" She handed me a Kaijudo practice glove. " …I am your master." I quickly put the glove on and activated it. She flooded it with her mana, and it became my own.

It was brown, with black and green inlays and outlays.(Basically replace Ray's original, personal glove's red parts for brown ones.) The sign in the middle showed the Order's symbol, but it had the Ground civilization's mark. It had a mountain shaking in the middle of it, and symbols around the base. I really was part of the Order. I looked up at her smiling. "So when do we get started?"

Ray Jr.'s P.O.V.

This was taking a long time. I had just knocked out Longhorn, but she brang out Thunder Guardian, and I started losing. The Light creature would attack, then fly just out of our reach, tiring Shadeblaze very quickly. He was a Shadow Champion/Dragon Lord, but he had his limits. Plus, he was used to bigger prey. Not some sneaky light bird. Shak'N Aw fired another blast, and this time, it hit it's mark. Shazeblaze disintegrated, sending me tumbling. I was getting really tired of this.

She yelled, "Is that all you got?! Come on Ray!" She laughed, and that set me off. "No, that's not it!" My voice must have scared her, because she jumped. What I didn't see was that waves of multicolored mana was flowing off me. It caught everyone's attention. I ignored the unfamiliar feeling, and yelled. "You wanna see what I got? HUH?!" She started to back up, frightened. "Ray, I…" I yelled, "This duel ends here and now!" I started to drain power of the creatures nearby, disintegrating them. The only one left was Shak'N Aw. "Wanna see real power? Well here it is! Chaos…Unchained!"

My dad, who obviously recognized the creature, screamed, "NO! Anyone but that one!" He started to run towards me, but it was too late. The creature came through. It roared, and I jumped on. My eyes were glowing with mana, and I was standing over the other duelists. It would be a great battle. That, I knew.
