Here we are chapter 2. I hope you people like it and remember to review.

I do not own Bakugan or it's characters. I do own Archaleon and Chase Snyder.


Chase POV

'That battle gear has to be one of the most impressive things I've ever seen.' I thought as I typed on a laptop notebook I had brought into interspace. 'If only Archaleon had his own, he'd be even more powerful.'

"Whatcha up to Chase?" Archaleon ask as he hopped up onto the table in front of his partner.

"Oh, so you're awake now?"

"I need my rest too you know. I don't get how you've yet to figure that out, even after five years."

"Cool your jets, I know you need to sleep every now and then. I'm just working on something here."

"What is it?"

"It's a surprise, you just have to wait." I told him as I shut the laptop and slipped it back into my backpack. "We should see if we can find those brawlers, try and spy on them and find out if we can find out more about that one kid's crazy ramblings about warring bakugan."


Normal POV

"Running Bakugan Interspace has really whipped me out. How about you?" asked Marucho. He and Ren sat at the dining table, ready to eat.

"Yup…" replied Ren.

Marucho saw Ren wasn't touching his food. "So…um…I was thinking after breakfast we could have a look at the system to fix all the damage. I'm pretty sure that we're good but…" Ren still hadn't touched his food.

"Sure…"

"Is everything okay sir?" asked Kato.

Ren looked up, surprised. "Huh... yeah, I'm fine, thank you."

"You seem distracted Ren, talk to me." Ren looked up surprised. "You and I run Bakugan Interspace, we're partners. If something's wrong, please tell me. I'm here for you."

"Please excuse me, I'll leave you gentlemen to your discussion." Kato said as he excused himself.

"Actually I've been thinking about the visions that Dan had."

"I'm worried too, he keeps talking about them like they're real. I think the explosions did a number on him."

"Actually, I do know something about his visions but I must confess something to you."

"Go on…" said Marucho.

"It's me." Ren said before he hesitated a bit. "I'm not actually from this planet. I'm really a…"

"Are you serious!"


Chase POV

"Chase, isn't that the blonde shrimp and the freaky kid from that battle yesterday?" Archaleon asked as I looked up to see who he was referring to and recognized them easily. It did seem they were in a bit of a hurry though.

"Huh, you're right. Guess our search is over, let's follow them, see what they're up to."


Normal POV

The brawlers arrived together in the Commons of BI, waiting for two missing people. Shun looked over Ren's shoulder as he saw someone quickly duck behind a building, but he dismissed the thought he had about it.

"We got the call, what's up?" Dan said

"Is everything okay?" Shun continued, still feeling like someone was watching them.

"It'll be better if we talk in my office." Marucho led them to his main room of operations and told them what Ren had confessed to him earlier.

"What did you say?" cried Dan.

"An alien?" asked Jake.

"I'm sorry to spring this on you guys so suddenly. I'll understand if you're mad but we have more pressing issues." Said Ren.

"We're listening, so let's have it." Said Shun.

"I come from a planet in a distant dimension called Gundalia. Much like you humans on Earth, we existed peacefully with our Bakugan. But one day, a hostile tribe called Neathians invaded our planet using their Bakugan. I'm certain that Dan's vision of warring Bakugan are coming from my home world. The explosion from Drago and Linehalt's battle must have caused so kind of distortion, which allowed Dan's mind to travel there in it's unconscious state."

Drago popped open onto Dan's shoulder. "So the legends are true. I remember hearing the stories when I was young, but I thought they were just fables. A long time ago, when the core of Vestroia split and became the six attribute worlds, the enormous energy it created was said to have blown some Bakugan to another dimension."

"Even if all this stuff is true, it doesn't explain what you're doing on Earth." Said Jake.

"Neathian Bakugan were trained as soldiers from birth whereas the Gundalian Bakugan were raised in an atmosphere of peace and calm. Because of that, we lack the skills to fight back in battle. Our peaceful existence has been attacked by these Neathians and our very freedom is at stake. I too have heard the legends but in reverse of Bakugan existing elsewhere. I also learned of the mighty warriors known as the Bakugan Battle Brawlers."

"I suppose now you want our help, but why should we believe you?" asked Shun.

"I suppose you'd like the see the cities of my planet left in ruins by the Neathians attacks! Or maybe I could show you the Neathian moles who have already infiltrated Bakugan Interspace."

"Moles? Like sleeper agents?" asked Dan. "What do they want?"

"The same thing I want: to recruit the Battle Brawlers to their side so they can crush their enemies."

"Interspace is not for war!" shouted Marucho.

"I understand, but we never asked to be attacked and we'd like the fighting to be over as soon as possible. Which is why I'm coming to all of you. So please, will you help me?"

Dan gripped his armrest. "I'm fed up with people using the Bakugan for evil reasons!"

"Yeah, we can't let these Neathy creeps get away with this." Said Jake.

"They infiltrated Bakugan Interspace which was meant for peaceful purposes, they're going to pay for that!" cried Marucho.

"And we have to protect the kids inside." Said Shun.

"Ok, it's unanimous, we're in." declared Dan.

"Ok then, thank you for agreeing to help. Gundalia is in your debt." Ren put his hand on the table/touch computer. "I've managed to identify two of the sleeper agents, they are Sid Arcale and Lena Isis."


Outside the door Chase was quietly listening in on the conversation, he couldn't hear every word being said, but he could make out certain important parts.

"So that freaky kid's an alien?" Chase said. He flinched as the door began to open and he walked away as the brawlers came out. Shun looked over and saw Chase turn a corner down the hall.

'Hmm, that's the second time I've seen that kid. Is he following us?'


The Brawlers quickly located Sid and Lena as two kids ran away from the moles. "Excuse me guys." Said Marucho, causing them to turn around. "Any chance that you guys are Sid and Lena?"

"Depends on who's asking." Said Lena, her glasses shining in the light.

"We are: the Battle Brawlers!" announced Dan.

"Great, now that we're well acquainted with each other, why not tell us what you want?" asked Lena.

"We heard you two we looking to battle, so we came to grant you your wish. Bakugan Interspace is for gaming, not war and I won't let you Neathians exploit it for your purposes." Declared Marucho.

"Easy now, we're just here to have fun." Said Sid.

"Since you guys like privacy so much, I got us a private arena." Said Marucho, leading Sid and Lena to an open arena.

"We can go crazy in here, no holds bared." Said Dan, punching his hand.

"That's just how we like it." Said Lena.

"So which two rodents are going to take us on?" asked Sid.

"That'll be me!" cried Dan.

"And me! So get ready to lose!" said Marucho.

'The Bakugan field is open'

"I'll get this party started." Sid said as he threw a gate card out. "Gate card set. Bakugan brawl, bakugan stand, rise Pyrus Rubanoid."

"Bakugan brawl, bakugan stand, go Pyrus Helix Dragonoid." Dan said as Drago appeared on the field opposite the red dragon bakugan.

"He doesn't look so tough. Ability activate, Corundum Tusk." Sid yelled as Rubanoid shot bolts out of his hands, which Drago attempted to dodge. "Ability activate Joule Deeper".

Drago continued to dodge as Rubanoid fired a beam at him. "Enough of this ballet nonsense. Ability activate, Burning Reflector." Dan yelled as the beam struck a wall of fire. "Buckle up, double ability activate, Galactic Dragon, plus fusion ability activate, Dragon Impulse."

Drago launched a fireball at Rubanoid, before throwing another at him.

"Looks like your attacks have a little kick to them," Rubanoid commented, shocking the brawlers.

"Whoa, that one can talk," Dan responded in surprise.

"Remember the Nethians use real bakugan in battle. They're from the same lineage as Drago." Ren explained.

"Real or digital, Drago will still win this." Shun replied as Marucho threw Akwimos into battle.

"Based on my initial analysis, I predict a win for my side." Lena commented as she pushed her glasses up before throwing her bakugan into the fray. "Bakguan stand, rise Aquos Phosphos."

"Whoa that thing really creeps me out, man." Dan piped up.

"Ability activate, Tri Viper"

"My body's going numb." Drago yelled in pain.

"You've been stung by Phosphos' paralysis venom. You can't activate any abilities now." Lena explained.

"Sit tight Dan, I got it." Marucho said. "Ability activate, Heal Blue."

"Awesome, he nullified her ability!" Jake exclaimed.

"Yeah big deal. Gate card open, Enemy Down," Sid called as the gate card opened.

"I've a got a plan. Ability activate, Ninja Eraser." Maruch said as Akwimos destroyed the gate card.

"Thanks alot Marucho. Ability activate, Galactic Dragon," Dan said as Drago went in for the final blow.

"Ability activate, Mirage Field." Sid countered.

"Try getting one of your attacks through now Drago. It's hopeless." Rubanoid laughed.

"Here we go Phosphos. Ability activate, Gorgon Viper." Lena called out as more heads appeared on Phosphos.

"Ever hear the saying, 'seven heads are better than one?'" Phosphos said as he fired blue beams at Drago and Akwimos.

"No not the venom again!" Drago yelled as Akwimos reverted back to ball form.

"Don't worry Drago, we won't leave you out." Lena said as ice began forming all over Drago's legs.

"This is bad, everything is going hazy."

"Dan better think of something fast, or it's lights out for Drago." Jake commented.

'The big oaf is right, how is he going to get out of this one,' Ren thought.

'Come on think. For every problem there is a solution, for every problem there is a solution, for every... that's it, how could I have missed that!' Dan thought as an idea struck him and he summoned the Jetkor battle gear. "Battle gear boost!"

"What?" Sid gasped as the batte gear formed on drago.

"He was able to launch his battle gear." Rubanoid commented.

"You guys forgot one thing. You may have frozen Drago's bottom half..." Dan began.

"But my battle gear mounts on top." Drago finished

"Battle gear ability activate, Jetkor Delta!" Dan said as Drago fired at Phosphos, reverting him back to ball form upon imact, before turning it on Rubanoid.

"This is gonna hurt." Rubanoid said before being struck down and reverted to ball form.

"That's right, that's how we roll." Dan bragged as he caught Drago.

"That's some heavy fire power." Sid commented.

"Indeed" Lena agreed.


"Ability activate, Barbarian Tornado!" A blue haired kid called out as his Buz Hornix attacked Archaleon repeatedly before it's stinger was caught by the dragon.

"Enough, you annoying little pest!" Archaleon yelled. "God not even mosquitoes are as irritating as this thing."

"Ability activate, Dread Stormer!" Chase yelled as Archaleon blasted Buz Hornix at point blank range, reverting it to ball form.

"Ah man, how did he do that?" the blue haired kid questioned.

'Casey life force thirty percent.'

"Gate card set, bakugan brawl, finish him off Archaleon!" Chase said, not wasting a moment.

"Bakugan brawl, bakugan stand, rise Ventus Buz Hornix."

"Ability activate, Shadow Disturbia." Chase called out as Archaleon blasted Buz Hornix forming an x shape on Hornix's body before it exploded.

"Ability activate, Durandal Cannon." Casey said as his bakugan fired at Archaleon who flew into the air to dodge the attack.

"This is getting really boring. A flyswatter could take down this bug." Archaleon commented as he hovered in the air.

"Now who's sounding arrogant. Ability activate, Obsidean Nova!" Chase yelled as Archaleon prepped a blast that disappeared for a second before launching full force at Buz Hornix. Causing a massive explosion that reverted the ventus bakugan to ball form.

'Battle over, your winner is Chase Snyder!'

"That makes it ten in a row. We are back in the game." Archaleon said as he returned to Chase.


"Gate card open, Capacity Booster!" Dan yelled as the gate card open and Rubanoid's hold on Drago loosened.

"What?" Sid said, shocked that Drago survived another onslaught.

"Why won't he stay down?" Lena questioned. "I don't get it."

"Maybe it's because I've been in hundreds of battles. And have faced far tougher opponents than you. Perhaps it's because you've forgotten that I am, Pyrus Helix Dragonoid!" Drago explained.

"That's right, and I should explain something else to you guys. The command card also powers up Drago's battle gear.

"What?" Sid cried for the umpteenth time this battle. "That means that..."

"He's going to use level two battle gear ability." Lena finished.

"Battle gear ability activate..." Dan began as he activated the ability.

"Jetkor Flame Impact." Drago finished as he flew into the air. "Target locked on."

A light engulfed Rubanoid and Phosphos preventing them from escaping.

"FIRE!" Drago yelled as he fired the attack demolishing his opponents and reverting them to ball form.

'Winner of the battle, Dan and Marucho.'

"Ah yeah!" cried Dan as Drago returned to him.

"You did it Dan!" cried Marucho.

"Thank you for that exciting battle, gentlemen." Said Lena.

"Yeah, it was real educational." Sid held open his hand with Rubanoid. "All right, come on Rubanoid."

"Let's go Phosphos." Lena spoke to her Bakugan on her shoulder. Lena and Sid teleported away.

"Guys," cried Jake. "Dan the man delivers a body slam."

"Dude what have I said about the rhyming?" Dan asked Jake.

"Ren, those two moles aren't the only moles from Neathia are they?" asked Shun.

"I doubt it." Said Ren.

"Oh come on, I'll take a thousand of them on!" declared Dan.

'Well Dan Kuso, you strength, ingenuity and fineness in battle are all very impressive. You are indeed are a powerful brawler. However, you're still not number one.' Thought Ren.


Like I said before I hope you enjoyed this chapter and don't worry, Chase will be featured more prominantly than the random cuts to what he's up to eventually. It's definitely going to start next chapter when a certain person appears in interspace for the first time, I'm not going to tell you who, cause I think it would be obvious who I'm talking about.

Remember to read and reveiw. And I'll see you guys and gals later.
