IchigoLover: Hey Jake! You want to do the disclaimer?
Jake: Yeah!
Dan: Hey what about me!
Dawn: You'll have to wait.
Dan: But-
Dawn: (Grabs Dan from the back of his shirt and starts dragging him away) Jake go on ahead.
Jake: Uhhh, OK. KingdomHeartsandIchigoLover does not own any thing of Bakugan Battle Brawlers.
IchigoLover: Thanks Jake! Here's the chapter.
An Explanation…..
When Dan, Fabia and Dawn arrived back at the Castle, they headed straight to the Throne Room where the others would be waiting. When they arrived, Dawn stayed a little ways away from Dan and Fabia as the others came up.
"Hey guys!" said Dan.
"Dan! Fabia!" yelled Marucho as he ran up to them.
"Hey you guys! What took you so long?" asked Shun.
"We ran into one of the kids from Earth." said Fabia. "But we weren't able to stop him from going back to Gundalia." she said sadly.
"It's OK. We'll save them next time" said Dan.
"Good. Hey, who's that?" asked Marucho, pointing at Dawn who stood a little ways behind the group.
Dan looked back and said "Oh, that's Dawn. She's a friend of mine." As he said that she walked up to the group.
"Hello." said Dawn.
"Wait. Aren't you from Earth? What are you doing here, dude?" asked Jake.
"I think I can answer that." said Queen. (1) "I'm glad that you all were able to make it but now it's time for an explanation."
"Yes, I do believe they all need to understand what's going on." said Wavern coming out to where everyone could see her for the first time.
"Wavern! Your back!" exclaimed both Marucho and Shun.
"Yes, I'm back and it is good to see you all." replied Wavern.
"But how?" asked Marucho.
"That will be explained once I tell you the first part of the story." said the Queen. "The reason Dawn is here is not only because of Wavern but because of her heritage."
"Wait, what about my heritage?" asked Dawn.
"Dawn, when you are around any bakugan do you feel a deep connection with them?" asked the Queen. Dawn nodded her 'yes'. "And do you Drago, Wavern and the rest of you feel a deep connection with her also?"
"Yes, sometimes." said Drago.
"OK. So Dawn has a connection with bakugan, what does that mean?" asked Dan.
"Before I can answer, I need to tell you all a legend from New Vestroia." said the Queen. "This is a tale of the first human to live in New Vestroia. Over 600 years ago, when Vestroia had just started, the bakugan lived peacefully. Then the first human had appeared. They say that she came from out of nowhere. She gave herself the name Yasuko, which meant peace. One of the first bakugan that had found her was a Pearl Wavern. At first, Yasuko was frighten by the bakugan but soon learned that the bakugan was not going to harm her. They soon became fast friends, creating a strong bond between them. The bakugan then took Yasuko to see all the other bakugan. At first many bakugan were unhappy with Yasuko being anywhere near them but soon became friends with her. 3 years later, another human had come to Vestroia. His name was Kazuo. Yasuko had found him the desert part of Vestroia and brought him back with her. They later fell in love and had a girl named Lenere. More human had begun to show up in Vestroia also creating strong bonds between them and the bakugan. They pasted this down in the generations that came after them and soon found a way to the human world. Many went to this new world while only few stayed behind. Years later, many of the humans had passed away leaving only 4 of latest generation of humans that had come to Vestroia remaining; they had decided that this would be the last chance to keep their culture alive. On February 22, 1996, a girl was born; she was the last remaining generation of humans that have come from Vestroia."(2)
"OK. So you told us the legend, but you still didn't answer my question." said Dan.
"Yes, I know that. To answer your question, Dan, there is something that you all should know. The reason Dawn is here is because….. She is the last remaining human from Vestroia." explained the Queen.
"WHAT!" exclaimed everyone. After that everything was silent. Marucho was the first one to speak up.
"How are you sure?" asked Marucho.
"The Sacred Orb, it told me about this legend saying that it was a true story. It also told me that our new friend, Dawn, was that little girl from the story." replied the Queen. "It also told me that as a human of Vestroia, the bond that they shared with the bakugan had also given them another power. Dawn would you please take you glove off?"
"Sure." said Dawn, somewhat still shock from the latest news. She pulled her glove off(3) and held it in her other hand. "Now what do I do?"
"I want you touch Wavern." said the Queen.
At first, Dawn was scared of what might happen when a little voice in her head said "It's OK. Nothing bad will happen."Dawn trusted the voice, closed her eyes and stretched her arm out to where she just touches Wavern when a bright, white light filled the room. When it died down everyone was shocked.
They were thinking that Wavern would still be in ball form, but that was way off. Where the small, floating, small little ball uses to be, there was now a white dragon that was big enough to fit in Dawn's hands.
"W-Wavern is that you?" asked Drago.
"Yes, it is me. Whatever Dawn did it- Dawn!" cried Wavern. That's when everyone looked to see where Dawn was. Dawn was down on the floor, lying on her side, with her eyes closed as if what she had just done had taken all of her energy.
"Dawn!" yelled everyone. Dan ran over to her and turned her on to her back.
"Dawn, can you hear me?" exclaimed Dan. He placed his hand in the small of her back and pulled her upper body off the floor and close to his chest.
"Do not worry." said the Queen. "This only happened because it was her first time using that power. This also proves that she is the last remaining human from Vestroia…."
"But what did she do to Wavern?" asked Shun.
"That was the other power I was talking about." explained the Queen looking down at Dawn, who was still knocked out. "They discovered all by accident. Somehow the bakugan were turned into ball form by someone that is still unknown. They were able to release the bakugan from the form only to the form of something smaller than they are in battling."
"So Dawn is truly the last descendent of the human of Vestroia?" asked Dan, still worried about Dawn. The Queen nodded. "Then do the Gundalian's know about her too?"
"No they do not. But it would not matter because she can only change bakugan into these forms." answered the Queen, pointing at Wavern, who had landed next to Dawn and Dan.
"So what do we do now?" asked Jake.
That's when Dawn was starting to wake up. She moaned, and then opened her eyes weakly.
"Uhhh… My head hurts….." she said quietly.
"Well, that happens when you pass out on us." said Dan, a smile coming to his face.
After a moment, Dawn released that she and Dan were on the floor….. And that Dan was holding her upper body off the floor and held her close to him.
She started to blush while Dan gave her a 'What's the matter' look. It took him a moment to release that she was blushing was because of how he was holding her and he also started to blush.
Shun saw all this going on while everyone else was oblivious to what was happening between the two. 'She might have a chance since Dan and Runo …'. He started to think about the night when Runo had broken up with Dan but push it out of his mind as quick as he could.
"D-Do you think you can stand up?" asked Dan, still blushing a little.
"Yeah." she answered. Dan helped her up, standing next to her just in case she was about to pass out again.
"I think that's enough explaining for one night. Captain Elright." said the Queen.
"Yes my lady?"
"Please show Dawn to her room."
"Of course. This way please." Dawn followed Elright; she was able to walk and stand alright without help and told Dan that she would alright without help.
"Dan, I'll be alright. I will talk to later. Kay?" said Dawn.
"OK. See you soon."
After Dawn had walked off, Dan turned around to see that Shun was grinning.
"Hey, what you grinning at?" asked Dan.
"Nothing. I'm letting you two figure this out for yourselves." said Shun as he walked away. Marucho and Jake just shrugged their shoulders. They said goodnight to Dan and went off to bed.
Dan stood there a moment thinking about what Shun had said. ''I'm letting you two figure this one out for yourselves.' What does that mean? I'll figure it out later; I'm going to talk to Dawn, I haven't seen her since we left. Aw man, I'm going to have to tell her about Ren…' He took off to see where Dawn's room was at.
Dawn's Room…..
After Elright had shown her where her room was at, she thanked him and after he left, she shut the door and went to lie on her bed. While she laid there she thought, 'WOW. I can't believe that I'm the last remaining human of Vestroia. That's something you don't hear every day.' That's when she heard a knock at her door. She got up off the bed at went to open the door. When she opened the door she saw Dan waiting at the door. He had his back to her as if he was guarding her room.
"Dan?" she asked. Dan jumped at the sound of his name.
"Oh. Hey Dawn. Mind if I come in and talk?"
"Sure." she answered cheerfully. She opened her door enough for Dan to come in and then closed it behind him. "So what's up?"
"Well, um, I have something to tell you. Do you know how Bakugan Inter-space is closed down?" he asked. She looked at him and nodded. He looked down at the floor while he talked, "Well, the reason it got shut down is because… Ren betrayed us." He looked up at Dawn and saw the shock on her face. It took her a moment to say anything.
"B-But w-why did he betray you guys?" she asked quietly.
"You know how the Gundalian's are the ones were fighting… Well he's one of them. He was using us so he could get to kids to take them to Gundalia and have them brainwashed and fight against the Neathian's."
As Dan was explaining this, Dawn had gone over to her bed and sat down with a shocked expression on her face. When Dan saw this, he went sat next to her. They sat there for a few minutes till Dawn finally said something.
"So he was just using you guys." she said quietly. Dan looked at her and saw tears rolling down her face, all he could do was to nod at her. She took in a deep breath, as if trying to calm herself down but wasn't working like she hoped. What she said next was shocked and surprised Dan. "It's hard to believe… He always acted like himself when he was around you guys at least that is what he had told me…. But I guess that was a lie." She paused for a moment and took another deep breath before starting again. "Dan, the next time we see him I want to be the one to battle him. You guys are one of my true friends… actual you guys are my only real friends and I won't give up on either of you." As she said all of this even more tears came to her eyes again. Dan saw this and brought his hand up and wiped the tears away.
"Alright, you can battle him first, but if you need help I will be right with you." said Dan, with a smile on his face. "You're one of my best friends, too." He paused for a second, looked her strait in the eye and continued. "You're not alone anymore, Dawn… You have me, Shun, Marucho, Jake, Fabia, Drago, and, most important, Wavern now." When he finished, Dawn looked at him with a smile on her face to and surprised Dan with a hug. After a moment he returned the hug. They stayed like that for a few seconds enjoying the moment that was happening between them. After they had separated they both were blushing a little. That's when they both released the same thing.
"Hey where are Drago and Wavern?" questioned Dan.
"There most likely spending time together. They haven't seen each other in a while."
That's when they both came in, Wavern in her new form and Drago in ball form. Wavern landed between the two while Drago landed next to her.
"Good to see, you buddy." said Dan. That's when Dawn had an idea.
"Hey Dan? How about I try my new power on Drago." said Dawn,
"Are you sure? You passed out the last time you used it."
"Yeah, I'm sure. Now that I'm use to the power I can handle it. You want to try Drago?"
"Yes." said Drago. Dawn pulled her glove off and opened her other hand open for Drago to fly up into her hand. Once he had landed in her hand, she closed her eyes and then reached to touch Drago with her hand. Dan watched as she did this all, to make sure both his friends were OK.
As soon as she touched Drago a red light, instead of a white light appeared around Drago so no one could see him. Dawn opened her eyes and pulled her hand away while Drago was still cover by the light.
Finally, the light started to fade and once it was gone Drago was no longer in ball form, he looked like he was in his battling form but smaller, a lot smaller. He was the same size as Wavern. He stretched his wings and flew on to Dan's shoulder.
"WOW! That is amazing! How do you feel buddy?" asked Dan.
"I feel great. I like this form." answered Drago.
"I'm glad you like your new form." said Dawn cheerfully. After hearing Dawn's voice Dan turned his attention back to her.
"You feeling alright?" he asked a little worried.
"Yeah, just a little drained." she said while trying to fight back a yawn. Dan saw this and snickered a little. She looked at him and saw him also trying to fight of a yawn but he couldn't anymore. She giggled and said "I'm not the only one who is tired. Maybe we should head to bed."
"I like the sound off that." he said as he got off her bed and started to walk to the door, with Drago on his shoulder, fast asleep. Dawn also got up and followed him. He stopped before he opened the door and turned around and looked at her.
"Um, before you go….. How is Runo doing?" she asked.
At first he looked a little sad before he said, "Well, um, before we left she kind of broke up with me." Dawn was a little surprised by this, she was about to say something when he beat her to the punch and said, "But I guess that's OK because we're so far apart we can't see each other like we wanted to. I'm happy she will be able to be with someone that can always be there for her. Well at least she will be happy."
"I'm glad you are OK with it." said Dawn.
"Well we both better get to bed so we can fight when we're needed right?" said Dan.
"Yeah. Well, I will see you in the morning. Goodnight Dan."
"Goodnight Dawn." he said as he turned to the door and opened it. "Sleep good, okay?"
"You too." she said. With that he closed the door and went to his room.
Dawn turned to her bed, went over to it and fell on to her bed. Wavern then came up onto her chest and laid there and saw that Dawn had something on her mind.
"Dawn, what's wrong?" asked Wavern. 'I think I know already….. She must like Dan.'
"Wavern, I-I think I like Dan…." said Dawn quietly.
"Is there something wrong with that?"
"No…. I just don't want it to end like my last relationship."
"Dawn, Dan is a great person. He would never mean to hurt you."
"I believe you Wavern. I'll talk to him later. Goodnight Wavern." as she laid her head on her pillow
"Sweet dreams, Dawn." But Dawn didn't hear it because she was already asleep, unknowing what was to come in the morning.
End Chapter 2…..
IchigoLover: Well this was nothing but a filler chapter it seems. With a little DanxDawn fluff in there.
Dan: I like the chapter with the powers and the legend and everything. But there was that one part.
IchigoLover: Which one?
Dan: Where I had to explain the break up.
IchigoLover: (Sweatdrop) Well you were the one that had the break up. What? Do you want me to have Shun explain it?
Dan: No.
IchigoLover: Good. I want to thank you guys for taking the time to review. Those guys are: Dakotawolf447, ilovecartoonslol and a friend of mine, AceBellamanx. As a request from ilovecartoonslol, here is some info on Dawn.
Height: 5.4 ft
Eye color: Bright blue with a hit of violet in them.
Hair color/length: Black and reaches to about the middle of her back.
Personality: She a lot like Dan: Hard head, willing, brave, smart, caring, cheerful, and friendly.

IchigoLover: I hope that this is what wanted to know about Dawn, ilovecartoonslol. Also with the whole legend-thing, if you don't like so be it. Don't leave reviews about how you don't like it and if doesn't make sense to you, this isn't your fanfic so I will only take comments about how you like it and if there are things to improve. Sorry if this sounds rude and all but I just don't like flames and all.
1. I didn't know what to call her so I just came up with that.
2. This is just something I came up with.
3. Don't know if they come off like that in the TV Series, but in my fic they do.
