Narrator: Three years after the battle against Naga.
Zero(At one of the Dimension Controllers with Jackal): It's a year early for this, you think cousin?
Jackal: What did you expect? Monarchy does rule out everyone's decisions. King Zenoheld does have a spoiled child by the name of Prince Hydron. But at least we are ready. Hey, when we get to Vestroia, can you follow me to a nearby cave if there was one?
Zero: Sure.
Narrator: The dimension controllers soon land on vestroia, it creates a shockwave hard enough that sends every bakugan back to their ball form. Vladitor does try to resist the effects, but still went to ball form.
Vladitor(Making contact with Leonidas): Now I see why you opted to stay at earth, New Vestroia is in trouble, five of ours have been captured, and I'm next.
Narrator: After the dimension controllers were done doing their thing, Zero and Jackal went to a nearby cave. They also checked for drones to make sure they weren't watched. Fortunately for them, they weren't.
Zero: So what is this all about?
Jackal: It's about the Vestals, I wanted to discuss things here to sabatoge the dimension controllers.
Zero: So that's why we joined.
Jackal: Yes, I think the data we gave Professor Clay was a good start.
Zero: What do you mean?
Jackal: I changed the data a little bit. Made it where Clay would make a slight disruptor that could help sabatoge the Dimension controllers.
Zero: What did you change?
Jackal: One of Leonidas's Ability's data when they were up against Naga.
Zero: Are you talking about EM blaster?
Jackal: Yes, I made a small modification that instead of absorbing the controller's power to stabalize, I made it where it actually overload it, but this requires some stronger bakugan. Ones like Dragonoid and Leonidas.
Zero: We must've made a good decision then. Leonidas is at earth and may get the message. Dragonoid would most likely get out of the core as well.
Narrator: Meanwhile at earth, near the fountain where Kyle found Leonidas.
Dan(As Kyle and Marduk arrives): So, how's the fanboy hmm?
Marduk: Does he always call you that?
Kyle: What did you expect? Dan used a certain card on me before, and he's going to continue to rub it on my face.
Dan: Hey! You're not saying I cheated now, are you!?
Kyle: No, not at all, all I'm saying is you used a power swap card on me. Can we skip this now, everyone passed their evolution test. Seriously, I thought you hated tests.
Narrator: Runo, Julie, Shun, Marucho, and Marduk laughed at what Kyle just said. Dan was slightly embarrassed.
Kyle(Cheering up Dan): Don't worry, you're not alone.
Leonidas: Strange, I must be hearing things. It sounds like vladitor is trying to make contact with me.
Runo: How does a Bakugan like you hear things straight from Vestroia?
Marucho: Most likely because of his evolution.
Kyle: I'll be right back, I need to register this into my head. Marduk, you might know this better than I would.
Marduk(Following Kyle): So what is this about? Is there something going on?
Kyle: Leo, can you make out any of the words?
Leonidas: "Vestroia in trouble, five bakugans, I'm next"
Marduk: We should check it out.
Leonidas(Before opening a portal to New Vestroia): I agree.
Narrator: Marduk, Kyle, and Leonidas were immediately sucked in.
Marduk: A little warning next time!
Leonidas: What? This was your idea.
Narrator: Meanwhile, at New Vestroia, where the Resistance Base is.
Ace: A portal just opened up, it must be Leonidas's in origin.
Mira: I'm getting the motercycle ready. Baron, get me a Darkus gaunlet, Leonidas is a high value capture target of the Vexos.
Baron(tossing the gaunlet to Mira): Here.
Ace: Wait!
Mira: What?
Ace: He could be alone as well.
Mira(Handing the gaunlet to ace): You could be right, get there ASAP.
Narrator: Ace heads to the location. Meanwhile...
Kyle(With Marduk and Leonidas at New Vestroia): Didn't this place used to be greener?
Leonidas: I'm guessing so.
Marduk: Where's all the Bakugan?
Leonidas: I'm guessing gone or in their ball forms, like Vladitor.
?: Two brawlers, one Bakugan. This is already way to easy. HAHAHAHAHA.
Kyle: Huh?
Marduk: Who are you!
Shadow: How rude of me, I'm Shadow Prove, the number one Darkus brawler here, and I even tend to keep my position here.
Kyle: We can take this guy on, right Leo?
Shadow: HAHAHAHAHA, really, you think you can beat me without a gaunlet? With the bakugan I have, I can just take all your bakugan 3 times.
Marduk: I don't mean to lower the odds here, but it sounds like someone is coming in with a motercycle.
Narrator: Ace drives by and stops the motercycle.
Shadow: What is she doing here!?
Ace(Before tossing the gaunlet): Really, I don't know what's going on in your heads, but in order to brawl in New Vestroia, you need a gaunlet.
Kyle(After catching the gaunlet): This makes things easier then.
Shadow: You got lucky brawler, but that doesn't mean you won! Gaunlet, power strike!
Narrator: Kyle figures out the gaunlet right away.
Kyle: Gaunlet, power strike! Gate card set!
Shadow: Bakugan brawl, Vexos Vladitor stand!
Kyle: What!
Marduk: This can't be good.
Ace: Something is up with your heads again, Shadow would most likely suck with Vladitor.
Kyle: Alright then, Bakugan Brawl! Omega Leonidas stand!
Leonidas: Good job setting the card down first. This guy isn't going to be easy.
Shadow: Ability activate! Thousand Destroyer!
Vexos Vladitor Power level 650 Gs
Omega Leonidas's Power Level 250 Gs
Kyle: Ability activate! Omega Eraser!
Omega Leonidas's Power Level 650 Gs
Shadow: Ability activate! Midnight Slayer!
Omega Leonidas's Power Level going down.
Kyle: Grind card huh?
Ace: What are you waiting for!
Marduk: Come on, are you acting like you're rusty?
Kyle(As soon as Leonidas's power level reaches 350 Gs): Ability activate, Darkus Phaser.
Vexos Vladitor's power level at 250 Gs
Omega Leonidas's Power Level at 750 Gs
Kyle: Thats not all, Gate card open! Omega Neutralizer.
Shadow: Grr, Ability activate... huh?
Narrator: Shadow Prove's Ability card doesn't activate.
Kyle: I'm just gonna say, this is self-explanitory.
Narrator: Vladitor get hit by the attack and returns to his ball form, Leonidas follows. Instead of Vladitor returning to Shadow Prove, it went directly to Kyle. Shadow's Life force went down to zero. Kyle wins the battle.
Shadow(As he gets in his ship): You just got lucky rookie!
Ace: Well that was something.
Kyle: I know, how did Vladitor go to my hand?
Ace: Wait, you don't know why?
Kyle: No, not at all.
Ace: In order to take your opponent's bakugan here, your bakugan has to be 500 Gs or higher above the opponent's bakugan. Really, I was surprised because this was Vladitor you have taken.
Kyle: Then that must be a start. Marduk, I think you should have Vladitor, he is your partner after all.
Marduk(As he recieves Vladitor): Thank you.
Ace: So what's next.
Kyle: You and I will head to where your base of operations is at.
Marduk: What about me?
Kyle: We can't risk losing Vladitor again.
Marduk: Hold up, whoever these slavers are, I want my revenge against them as well.
Ace: Then it's settled, both of you get on the motorcycle, you are now part of the Resistance.
Narrator: Ace, Kyle, and Marduk all get on the motorcycle. Ace is driving of course. As soon as they get to the Resistance base. Kyle is greeted with an unpleasent welcome.
Baron(Rushing at Kyle): Master Kyle!
Kyle: Did he just call me...
Ace: Yes he did.
Baron: Master Kyle, am I glad to see you, I am at your service!
Kyle(As he's thinking about it): Alright, first, calm down, and tell me what is your name?
Baron: Right, I'm Baron, the Haos Brawler of the Resistance. It's strange though, why did you bring Marduk?
Kyle: Oh, don't worry, he's friendly.
Marduk: Welp at least that ended fast.
Mira: Hey Kyle and Marduk, Im Mira?
Marduk: Hey Mira, I have a question.
Mira: What is it?
Marduk: How do you guys even know who we are?
Mira: You are two of the eight main brawlers who fought against Naga's forces.
Kyle: So, where's the other six bakugan?
Ace: Five of them are bronze statues at Prince Hydron's place while one of them, I'm guessing is still in the core.
Leonidas: After all of this, I don't think Drago is staying in the core after all that's happened here.
Mira: It's a possibility.
Ace: Another portal opened up!
Mira: Alright, I'm on it.
Kyle: I'll help.
Ace: No you stay here, we dont have enough seats for you. Or are you saying that because you wanna get away from Baron?
Kyle: Of course not.
Ace: Besides, we got resistance outfits for both you and Marduk.
Narrator: Both Kyle and Marduk changed into their resistance outfits. Kyle had a similar outfit to Ace's but without the long hanging sleeves. His outfit was completely black. Marduk had an outfit with a similar pattern to Ace's, again, without the hanging sleeves, but he used a long sleeved overcoat similar to what his last outfit was, with a hoodie. His outfit was grey instead of purple. And his hair was flattened with one hair tie rather than the multiple hair ties he had previously. Similar to what some of the colonial british looked like in the 1700s besides the hair color.
Ace: Marduk, whats with the hoodie on?
Marduk(As he pulled his hood down): I don't know, you tell me?
Kyle: I don't think that looks bad, I'd give it a ten on identity conceal.
Ace: For some reason, Kyle seems to have a good point.
Narrator: Dan, Marucho, and Mira enter the base.
Marduk: Here we go again.
Baron(Rushing after Dan): Master Dan!
Ace: How do you think this would go?
Kyle: I think we'll be talking outside if it escalates.
Ace: Heh, that would be nice, wouldn't it.
Kyle: And to think I looked up to Dan.
Marduk: Okay, you have a point, but that's a bit far.
Ace: I'd hate to admit that I agree with Marduk. He did teach you the basics of brawling.
Kyle: Alright quiet everyone, we they're coming.
Dan: You guys are here too!?
Marduk: Yes we beat you to it. Any news from Drago yet?
Drago: Long time no seen Leonidas.
Leonidas: Same with you Drago. We brought a surprise for you.
Drago: Yes I heard, you two managed to liberate Vladitor from the Vexos.
Vladitor: Not much of a surprise now is it.
Marucho: Why would the Vestals invade Vestroia in the first place?
Narrator: Kyle catches on to the term as it was said in the letter at the West residence.
Kyle: Espionage maybe?
Dan: Hold up! How would espionage play into this if all we heard about were Vestals!
Marduk(Pulling out a letter): Sadly, it would be my fault here.
Dan(Taking the letter): So, Pritchard and Brice were behind this?
Kyle: Thats what I think.
Marucho: Didn't they have bakugan?
Mira: Yes, currently, two people claimed them though. Jackal and Zero. These guys aren't your typical Vexos however.
Ace: The thing that makes them dangerous to us is not the fact that they are in it for power. These guys are open-minded toward the other Vexos. They even allow lower ranked Vexos to stand up at their level rather than bow down.
Mira: Jackal even raised up my father instead of letting him bow down. He does take the bowing down thing as a sign of weakness.
Ace: I guess thats what makes them two Prince Hydron's least favorite.
Mira: They are two of King Zenoheld's favorites though.
Kyle: Whatever those two are up to we can put a stop to them as well.
End: Chapter 1
