A few days after the incident with the rampaging Bakugan and reconstruction was already under way. Luckily, since we Netheians are already so accustomed to having to rebuild, most of the destroyed buildings and homes were already assembled and everything went back to normal…almost. Trials were being held for all those who took the advantage of all of the chaos was around and apparently the action that I took a few nights ago landed me a trial of my own. However, being a direct guard to the royal family does have its perks. I was not confined to the prison on Netheia until my actual trial day so I got to walk around and see the extent of the destruction on my home.

I should have cared more about the fate of these people. Families were still displaced and even some were left homeless from this destruction but my thoughts went to the Bakugan that Captain Elrite restrained and had taken to our laboratories to be studied. Luckily, the lead researcher who works there happens to be a good friend of mine as I entered through the large glass doors that were recently replaced and the secretary who seemed to also be moving her boxes around and not concentrating on her job.

I cleared my throat trying to get the attention of the secretary. "Um…excuse me, Dr. Omeros Petifyer requested me to conduct some research, " I said trying not to sound condescending or arrogant like I normally would.

The aged woman looked at me and then pushed her glasses up, "Hmph…another one of you students looking to find easy answers, can't you see after we've had this massive creature annihilate the last thing the doctor needs right about now is his students constantly popping in and out…," she ranted towards me and went on and on how us kids can't respect old people's time.

"So…can I go see him," I asked

"Fine, you're lucky he's expecting to see you right about but make it quick, the doctor is a very busy man."

"Yeah…yeah I heard you the first time," and I waved goodbye to the secretary.

The Netheian Bakugan Biology Research Lab is one of the most respected science facilities we have. Or at least it was. After the incident parts of the departments were heavily damaged and still under construction, the only places that were left, were some offices, some labs, and more importantly the Bakugan Containment Facility a place where some Bakugan are captured and analyzed.

Now, I know what you're thinking, and no the Bakugan are not contained inside the main building itself. The actual facility is located underground and there is one of two ways to get in. One, try to run the gauntlets of security and risk incarceration, or two, still be a Castle Knight.

On occasion, Castle Knights are usually known for guarding all of the major sections that involve science, this lab being on of them. I was assigned to this lab in particular and every so often on my breaks some of the doctors here would show me around and even would teach me about Bakugan Biology itself which is why I am such a recognized person around here.

I had finally arrived at the door to the facility and punched in a few numbers into the keypad where I was transported several stories underground into a room with almost thousands of Bakugan in their ball form in what appeared to be separate pods, each one in a deep sleep. Right next to me though, was another holding area that was sterile and white. That area was meant for Bakugan observation outside of their ball forms in an area that was contained and safe for the researchers and it is where I told the system bring the Bakugan from the last few nights into the holding area.

In a flash of white and violet the dragon emerged from it's ball albeit a little disoriented, its eyes heavy from being in stasis and the coming out before finally coming to and looking down at me. "Who…who are you, " she asked in a distinctly human voice walking up closer to me before bending down where a massive eye looked at me. At first I was apprehensive but then she moved back from the window when an electrical force field shocked her as to remind her to where she still is.

"Easy…easy now, don't try to strain yourself, you probably do not remember me but the name 's Angela, " I said smiling putting down my bag and grabbing a chair along with my sketch tablet and a stylus ", may I ask what is yours?"

"A…Anaya miss…er… Angela, " her stammering amused me somewhat ", where am I exactly?"

It was then that the question had me to look up at her. "Well, to be perfectly honest, you're in a holding cell, after the rampage you had last night, my people had to contain you, you were quite the handful not even our best guards could be able to handle you."

"I went on a rampage?"

I sighed, in defeat trying to avoid a long-winded recap of everything happened that night. "You really don't remember do you, well…"

So Anaya listened to me as I told her all of the hazy details that occurred the night of the incident. I told her of monster side and the immense power that radiated from it, I even told her how she called out to me through her mind and the wild ride I had up until somehow she stopped short of her "destination."

"So basically here you are now, and here I am awaiting trial for my disobedience," I had finally finished both my sketch and my story.

"But if the story you is true, this destruction was all my fault Angela, " she said finally after a couple of minutes digesting the story ", why are you in trouble as well, by the way you made it sound, you should be rewarded for what you have done to save me?"

She was right, I should have be given a medal or something, not having to face trial in the first place but even I didn't want to go there right now. "That should be explained later, anyways what about you why are you even here in the first place, " I asked but I wouldn't even get to be able to hear that story because of the several shadows behind me.

"You're not helping yourself by breaking out of prison before your trial." A female voice said behind me and as I turned around, I saw a girl about my age who carried herself with regality. It was Princess Fabia.
