Prologue

It was just a fine afternoon just after dismissal when a boy of thirteen was sitting on a cherry tree relaxing...gazing at the petals dancing on the breeze...his black hair was flowing gracefully and his expression was very calm...he was also still wearing his school outfit which consisted of a simple white long sleeve shirt, a blue tie with two white stripes at the bottom, blue pants and black shoes. The teen's brown eyes were also looking at the other students on their way home as they passed through the school gates. Shun wasn't waiting for anybody...he just liked resting. Though seriously, he wasn't ever admitting it even to himself that he was waiting for his younger friend to show up. Nope, no way...

As he kept on watching, his eyes finally rested on a figure walking while holding his short-strapped bag over his shoulder. He was talking with one of his classmates the ninja guessed. The features were hard to miss anyway...with his brown hair and red eyes. Having been best friends since they were little, Shun could tell him apart from anyone else...

After the two friends split up, the raven-haired male moved from his comfortable position and jumped down the branch with a smooth landing. Dan noticed him quickly and ran towards him with the same grin on his face. "Hey Shun. How's school?"

"Fine...the same as usual." he replied in a neutral tone.

"Can I ask you a favor then?" the brunette asked.

"What is it?" there was a short pause before Dan responded. "Can you go to the new toy store with me at the weekend?"

"...toy store? Dan, you're like...twelve, and you still want to go there?" his question was answered with a 'pleading' face and the word 'pleaseeeee?' "Alright...I'll go."

"By the way I'm bringing Drago along as well."

"Why?"

"In case something bad happens of course. Are you bringing Skyress?" a nod. "Okay then it's settled! On Saturday we head to 'Ultimate Toys'! The supposed biggest toy store in the world~!" he exclaimed happily.

Shun sighed, there was nothing he can do now...with his younger friend like this. "Oh right!" the sudden shout snapped the ninja out of his thoughts as he faced him again. "I forgot to tell you we'll be going there at around 9:50 pm m'kay?"

"9:50 pm? Wouldn't the store close by then..?"

"Trust me, I know what I'm doing." he said it with so much confidence Shun nearly did. But he knew something was up, and since he was taking his precious Bakugan partner with him, the ninja suspected Dan was foreseeing trouble. The question would be what and why.

A/N : Poor Shun, having to be a sort-of guienea pig to one of Dan's weird plans. It's short, I've noticed. But it's a prologue...so cut me some slack. I was able to find the game in one of the groups of old CDs and my little sister supplied some of the ideas and bam..! We have a story...*laughs* I used to like this game...and now that I'm a writer, I want to improve more on the storyline! But before I could use the original characters...I had a thought to try using different characters instead...and you know the rest.
