HEY GUYS! I'm back from my grandmother's funeral in Mexico(may her soul rest in peace) and as I was there, I was thinking of this chapter and when I saw how quickly I got over 10 followers in less than a week is awesome. I was happy this story got love, unlike the yugioh fanfic I'm doing. Now let me tell you guys the reason I actually made this fanfic: I was just scrolling down Youtube and found a video on the Bakugan video game, so I was like 'Guess I'll watch this.' So I did and I remembered how well the show was, so I rewatched a few episodes of the 1st season and BOOM! Now we have this story, nice huh?

So I was wondering if I should create some original Bakugan for the future, but I wanna know do you guys wanted Ingrid and Elfan with the two FEMALE characters in later chapters? I personally don't have a problem with it, but I just wanna know what you guys think.

Great Saiyaman54: Yes it is.

Lightkirinhuruname: Thanks! To be honest, I didn't expect so much quick followers or favs.

Mexican ninja1996: Well if it was Mirajane, then it would've shown the first and first initial of her last name. I could add her, along with Ultear if you want, and Mexico was okay, what with the bumpy roads and graffiti.

GodX: I…...did not know there were YAOI pairings in the few Bakugan stories in fanfiction, thanks? I haven't thought of adding the originals brawlers, as for Sona, I can add her in the team, just gotta look up her personality since I don't wanna go too OOC.

Acnolgia01: I see, well I'll try not to disappoint ya;)

Kival737101: It will be, why wouldn't Natsu get a dragon bakugan? I agree about Mira, don't tell people, but when I watched New Vestroia, so I thought someone like her should be with Natsu.

Guest: I thought of the new chapter in Mexico.

So to recap, Natsu was taken from Earthland the the realm of the Legendary Warriors of New Vestroia, who had shown him their world which was being invaded by the Vestals. Angry at how they take pleasure in the Bakugan's misery, Natsu agrees to help and is now on his way to New Vestroia, where a new adventure will begin for him.

'In an unknown location'

"So the Vexos have Tigrerra as well?" Said a female from within a mobile fortress. She has short orange hair, a small silver jacket that made her impressive C-cups stick out, white gloves, blue earrings, sapphire eyes, and a rogue jumpsuit with uneven sized boots and leggings.

"Yeah, I'm sorry Mira." A male voice said from a screen communicator as the newly dubbed 'Mira' sighed.

"Well at least Nemus is save. Come back to base Baron, you earned it."

"Thanks Mira. See you soon." With that, the communication was cut. The orange-haired female let out a tired sigh while running a hand through her hair. This wasn't good at all: one of the saver Bakugan lost? Now their chances of beating the Vexos are slimmer.

"Hey Mira, come check this out." A new voice called from her left. It was a male who looked to be 17 with pale green-blue hair and cool grey eyes. He wears a purple long sleeved shirt with black and grey trimmings, greyish-white pants and black boots.

"What is it Ace?" She walked up to him and looked at the screen from the terminal he was working on.

"I detected a strange Bakugan signature in this location, not to mention what looks like a human there." He pointed to an angry Natsu, who was cursing at god knows who. "That kid'll be dead by himself."

Why would a human come here? Wait, maybe he could help us. "I'm gonna go check on this guy. Be back in a bit."

"Don't bother Mira. He doesn't look like the type to listen to reason." He didn't like how this guy looked, that and he was concerned with Mira's safety.

"Relax, I'm just gonna see why he's here." With that, she walked downstairs to prepare her ride.

'With Natsu, JUST a minute before Ace located him'

Now, one would think that the Legendary warriors, having a major role in their world, would transport our favorite dragon slayer to the ground safely, but….

"AAAAHHHHH!" Yeah…..they may or may not have miscalculated his location….or how high he would be. "WHAT THE HELL?! IS THIS MY GIFT FOR HELPING!" he yelled as he continued to drop about 100 feet in the air at an impressive speed that even the Flash might be jealous. As he cursed the warriors, Natsu failed to realize how dire his situation was until he had maybe 10 seconds left. "SHIT!" Thinking fast, Natsu concentrated his magic in both hands as they sparked, created a kind of delay just before he hit the ground, making the landing softer. Taking a sigh of relief, Natsu looked around and was horrified to see the desolate wasteland surrounding him. "What is this place? This looks nothing like Vestroia…."

*Tap* *Tap*

A small tap sound caught his attention, revealing it to be a red Bakugan and what looked like a deck box on one of the rocks in the area. "Hello, what's this?" Walking up to the rock, Natsu picked up the Bakugan and Deck box in each hand before examining them. "Where did you come from little guy?" To his surprise, the Bakugan opened, revealing a kind of dragon like appearance.

"Hello partner." It said with a rough tone.

"Woah! You can talk?" Well you really can't blame the guy for being shocked as he'd never seen a Bakugan before, much less one that can talk.

"Of course, all Bakugan have the capability to speak."

"Sorry, it's just I've never actually seen or touched one of you guys before." He admitted while scratching the back of his head. "Sio, do you have a name?"

"My name is Leonidas and I was sent by the Legendary Warriors to be your Bakugan partner."

"Leo….nidas…..nah, I'll just call you Leo, kay?" Natsu said with a toothy grin, much to the Bakugan's shock.

"I…...suppose that's acceptable." Leonidas said as he never had a nickname given to him, yet it felt nice.

"Well it's awesome to meet you Leo! My name's Natsu Dragneel. Say, do you know where we are?"

"We are currently in what was once known as Paradise in New Vestroia, before the Vestals showed up." Natsu picked up the angry tone from his new partner.

"Don't worry Leo, I'm not gonna stop until these Vedals bastards are outta here!" Even though he got the name wrong, Leonidas felt grateful at his new partner's conviction. "YOU HEAR ME YOU BASTARDS!"

"Oh we hear you." A new voice called from behind the duo. Turning his head, Natsu found a short boy with light pink hair, a longer vest similar to his own, matching boots, half black and half white pants and a green cape. Next to the boy was muscular man with upperward red hair, black gloves with a yellow circle in the edge of said glove, black shirt with matching pants under a white and yellow fur coat and matching boots. "The question is: what are you going to do about it?" The boy said with a cocky tone.

"Go back home and play with your toys kid." The bigger man said with his arms crossed.

"Are you guys Vodols?" Natsu said with a serious tone, even though he got the name wrong.

"If you mean Vestals, then you're right kid. Maybe you should go back to school since you can speak right." The kid said with an arrogant smirk, making Natsu growl.

"You bastards are the reason this place is empty, and for that….." He clenched his fists and gave them a heated glare. "I'm gonna kick your asses!" The muscular male looked indifferent. The same couldn't be said for his partner…..

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Believing it to be a joke, the kid in green fell on his back while clutching his gut. "Man! I thought your hair color was dumb enough, but I guess I was wrong!" This got a tick mark on Natsu's head.

"There's nothing wrong with my hair you freaking midget!"

"If you brawl as much as you talk, then why not take us on." The taller male suddenly said as his partner stopped laughing.

"Yeah, let's see how good you are in a Bakugan brawl." Natsu raised a brow as he saw the two place a strange gauntlet on their left arms, one green and the other yellow. "Well, what are you waiting for pinky? Get your Gauntlet out so we can brawl!"

"What the hell is a Gauntlet? Ah to hell with that! Why not come out and let's settle this fist-to-fist!" To emphasize his point, Natsu lite both fists on fire and gave them a feral grin, much to their and Leonidas' surprise.

"Woah, that's a neat magic trick kid. Too bad it won't help you here." Natsu growled and just as he was about to jump and beat the crap outta these guys, a sudden rev caught everyone's attention. Thanks to his quick reflexes, Natsu was able to jump out of the way of a yellow motorcycle. "Oh great, not her again."

"What the hell?! Watch where you're going!" Natsu yelled in irritation as the driver took off their helmet, revealing a beautiful woman with orange hair.

"I don't know where you come from, or what you're doing here, but but you'll need a Gauntlet if you wanna brawl in New Vestroia." She said, ignoring his early banter.

"Look lady, I just wanna stop these guys, with or without a Gauntlet. Speaking of these guys, are you one of them?" Natsu asked in a serious tone.

"No, I'm not. I'm with the Bakugan Brawlers Resistance. My name is Mira." She said with a small smile.

Mira huh? His expression softened at the mention of one of his friends. Suddenly, Mira threw a red Gauntlet at him, which he quickly took.

"Hehe, let's see if you can keep up against the Vexos."

"Vexos? You mean these guys?" He asked while pointing at his opponents.

"Yes,they're the Vestals' top brawlers. The one with no brains is Volt and the brat who thinks he's all that is named Lync."

"Hey, watch your mouth." Lync said while standing up.

"Like he said." Volt added.

"Thanks for the heads up, but these asswipes are mine." Mira then walked up to him with a taunting smirk and he had to admit, she was pretty.

"So human, tell me: are you a chicken or a brawler?"

"I'm no chicken! I'll take these punks on with my bare hands!" Natsu once again lite his fists on fire, much to Mira's shock.

H-he set his hands on fire, yet he makes it look like it's nothing. Who is this human?

"Um, hello! Are we gonna talk or are we gonna brawl?" The green clothed kid said as he and Volt slid down the mountain they were on.

"Partner." Leonidas said as he jumped onto Natsu's shoulder. "Let us accept their brawl, I wanna make these Vexos pay for enslaving my kind." If he was being honest, Natsu just wanted to kick these guys' ass with his dragon slayer magic, but he could hear how angry and determined his Bakugan was. It reminded him of himself whenever he had to face a tough opponent, like Jellal or Hades. He then scooped Leonidas into his right hand and gave him a toothy grin.

"Alright buddy, we'll do it your way." With that, he placed the Gauntlet on his left arm. "Okay….how do you work this thing?" Hearing his voice snapped Mira out of her shock.

"Just watch and learn." She said as she, Volt and Lync put a card into their Gauntlets.

"Gauntlet, Power Strike!" All three said at the same time as their Gauntlets glew a color corresponding to their element.

"Hmmm, okay so I press this?" Copying what he saw, Natsu pressed one of the buttons, prompting the device to eject the card slot. "Okay, then I put a card in here….." Taking a card that looked similar to what they placed in, though the obvious difference was his was red, the pink haired placed it in the slot before it closed.

"GAUNTLET ACTIVATED." The A.I. said, much to his glee.

"Alright, I'm awesome!"

This idiot has no idea what he's doing. Mira thought as she saw how Natsu was checking out his new toy. I can't believe I sunk this low.

"I'm up first kiddies! Gate card, set!" Lync then took a card with the Ventus symbol on it to the ground, which allowed the area to turn green for a brief second.

"Umm, what the hell did he throw?" Natsu asked in confusion.

"He threw in a gate card." Mira started explaining. "Gate cards are key to the start of a Bakugan brawl and each player takes turns using one." She then gave him a questionable expression. "How do you not know that?"

"Well it is the first I'm playing this so….."

"Wait, this is your first time?!" She couldn't help but scream, making Lync fall on his back laughing while Natsu covered his ears.

"No freaking way! You mean that you gave that idiot a Gauntlet, DESPITE him not knowing how to brawl?! Oh man! The resistance must be desperate!"

"Hmmm, this won't take 2 seconds." Volt said in a disappointed tone.

"Hey shut up! I can learn how to play faster than you bastards!" Mira facepalmed at the situation she got herself into.

"Alright kid, then let me show you how the big boys play! Bakugan, Brawl!"Reaching into his pocket, Lync threw in a green Bakugan before it opened up. "Bakugan, Stand!" A green light erupted from the Bakugan, causing Natsu to cover up. When it died out, a large green beetle-like creature appeared in front of Lync. "Ventus Flybeetle!"

"Bakugan, Brawl!" Volt called out as he threw a white Bakugan to the field. "Bakugan, Stand!" Once it opened, a yellow light erupted, revealing a white furred monkey with a yellow staff appeared. "Haos Fearious!"

Ventus Flybeetle: PL 350 Gs

Haos Fearious: PL 350 Gs

"What the hell, we're facing a giant bug and a monkey? Talk about lame." Natsu said blankly.

"Oh yeah? Well come on and throw in your Bakugan kid!" Volt shouted.

Alright, since the kid doesn't know how to brawl, I should probably go f-

"Alright, here I go!" The dragon slayer called out as he passed Mira. He then looked at his partner. "Ready?"

"I'm always ready partner." Leonidas said before closing into his ball form.

"Wait, you said you've never brawled before!"

"So? I'll just make it up as I go along." Flicking the Bakugan in the air with his thumb, Natsu pulled his arm back before throwing him in. "Bakugan, Brawl!" Not that it wasn't a good throw, it's just….Natsu kinda threw it at Fearious, who yelled in pain as Leonidas struck his forehead before landing on the ground. "Bakugan, Stand!" Once Leonidas opened up, a pillar of fire erupted from him. Unfortunately, Fearious was too close to it and he was defeated, which forced him to transform to sphere form and land in front of Volt.

"What the hell?!" he asked in confusion.

"Flybeetle, get outta there!" Lync yelled as his Bakugan tried flying away, only for a small portion of the flames to hit its back.

"Woah, cool." Natsu muttered as he and Mira were shocked at what happened. "so ….what now?"

"Use an ability card from that deck you have." She suggested.

"Like this?" he asked while showing her a card with a blue circle and white doors. After she gave him a nod, he read the description and grinned. "Alright, let's try this! Ability card activate!"

"Inferno Crash!" Leonidas shouted from within the pillar as he charged at Flybeetle while his body was still on fire. The Ventus Bakugan was powerless to survive as the beast struck it on the back, forcing it to crash on the ground and create a quick shockwave. The Vexos and Mira covered up from the dusk while Natsu looked in awe at his Bakugan's true form. Leonidas was a large red dragon with three yellow horns, two over his ears and one in the middle of his muzzle. He has three toes on each foot, three fingers on each hand, a long tail with the end being in the form of an arrow, and three stripes on his shins.

"Woah, Leonidas. You look so…...so…..BADASS!" Natsu shouted with stars in his eyes as his dragon let out a massive roar.

"Yes, I truly feel powerful." Leonidas said before he turned back into sphere mode and flew towards his partner, who catch him.

Mira looked at her Gauntlet and gasped when she saw Lync and Volt's life gauge.

"Lync's life gauge dropped by half in just one blow!" She said in shock while Volt's was about 20% empty. Mira then looked at Natsu, who was looking at Leonidas with a smile. "He's one of the strongest brawlers I've ever seen, and yet he wasn't lying when he said he didn't know how to brawl. Who is this guy?

"Hey, what's a life gauge anyways?" He suddenly asked as his Gauntlet told him something about it.

"Whatever power level you lose in battle, your life gauge goes down as well and when it hits zero, it's over. Natsu just gave a nod, at least it was simple, though he wished he could keep beating these guys.

"What are you looking at?" Lync asked Volt, who gave him an annoyed expression.

"A partner who doesn't know when to stop showing off. Come on, we gotta beat these loser!" Volt said with a glare.

"I'm up next, gate card set!" Mira called out as she threw in a Subterra card on the ground. "Bakugan brawl! Bakugan, stand! Subterra Wilda!" Throwing her Bakugan on the field, it opened up, revealing a massive creature made of rock and hardened clay appeared as it gave a deafening battle cry.

"Bakugan, Brawl!" Volt called out as he threw in his next Bakugan. "Bakugan stand! Haos Freezer!" As the golden light died out, an octopus like creature with a mechanical head appeared.

"I got your number Mira. Bakugan, Brawl!" Lync said with a cocky smirk as he threw his new Bakugan as well. "Bakugan, stand! Ventus Abmos!" A green bird with three sharp feathers under each wing appeared.

"Gate card, open! Subterra Reactor!" The ground suddenly began to shake as several stone pillars came out of the ground.

Wilda: PV 450-850

"Woah, what did you do?" Natsu asked in curiousity.

"I used my gate card, which gives a Bakugan of the same element a power boost." She quickly answered, not taking her eyes off the battle.

"Oh,think you're clever huh?" Lync said as he raised his Gauntlet, revealing a red ability card. "Typhoon Chase!" The Ventus Bakugan was covered in a green aura as it flapped its wings, destroying all the pillars from the gate card.

"Jeez, I knew this guys was a blowhard!" Natsu blurted out while crossing his arms.

"Double ability activate!" Mira said while holding up two cards and placing them in her Gauntlet, much to Natsu's shock. "Power Winder plus Gun Lock!" Wilda was covered in a brown aura as he sent his own waves of energy at Abmos, who weakingly screeched.

Abmos: PV 450-250

Wilda: 850-1050

"Woah, now that's power!" Natsu cheered with a grin, though Mira gave a tired sigh.

"I'll handle it from here kid. You still have a few things to learn about brawling." She said, making his grin disappear.

"Woah, wait a minute! Didn't you see how I beat them last round! I can do this Mira." She turned around and gave him a hardened look.

"That was pure luck. If your Bakugan was weaker, than you would have lost. Just sit back and watch." Natsu gave her a glare before he huffed and sat down with his arms crossed.

"Fine! Go ahead, there's SO much I can learn from you teacher!"

"Calm down partner, we should watch in case we see something interesting." Leonidas said.

"Man, he's such a little kid. That's his problem, i was just helping." Mira then looked at Wilda with a small smirk. "Alright, take them down Wilda!" The Subterra Bakugan charged through pillar after pillar with his right shoulder.

"Oh no you don't!" Volt called out as he raised his Gauntlet. "Ability activate! Freeze Jail!" Freezer raised one of its tentacles before tapping into the air as if it was water. The waves from said touch surrounded Wilda, who literally froze in time.

"Oh no!"

"You shouldn't take things like abilities for granted if you can't use them." Lync said with a smirk. "Go Abmos!"

"Freezer!" Both Bakugan began charging towards Wilda, who still couldn't move.

"Wilda!" This is bad, if they attack, then I'll lose not only the match, but Wilda too…..

"Bakugan, Brawl!" Natsu called from the air as he threw Leonidas in between the Bakugan. "Bakugan Stand!" Thanks to the pillar of fire the Pyrus Bakugan brought with him, the Haos and Ventus Bakugan were pushed away. "I got your back, kay?" Natsu said with a toothy grin, getting Mira to look away with a hint of pink on her cheeks. "Alright, let's try that thing you did! Double ability activate! Fire Wing Attack plus Inferno Crush Claw!" Leonidas flew towards his opponents before slamming them together with his flame-enhanced claws.

"BEGONE!" He yelled before expanding his wings and crushing the two Bakugan.

"Life gauge, depleted." The A.I said as Natsu and Mira were declared the victors. Natsu caught not only his own Bakugan, but also Freezer and Abmos, who mysteriously flew towards him.

"I can't believe we lost to some idiot and that little girl." Volt grunted in an annoyed tone.

"That Bakugan, it's not like the others." Lync said with narrowed eyes. "Let's report this to prince Hydros." With that, the duo left.

"Yeah that's right! Run away like the chickens you are!" Natsu yelled with a confident grin.

"Well said partner. We showed those Vexos scum who the superior ones are." His Bakugan agreed as Mira walked up to them.

"I have to admit, you did a lot better than any newbie I've ever seen. So, what's your name?" Mira asked with a hand on her hip.

"Names Natsu Dragneel! And this guy right here is my partner Leo!" He answered with a toothy grin with his hands behind his head.

Natsu Dragneel huh? This guy has no idea how strong he is, no less with his Bakugan. Not to mention that fire he used. After thinking for a bit, Mira spoke. "Natsu, how did you get here? You're obviously not a Vestal, I assume you are from Earth?" To her surprise, he tilted his head.

"No, I'm from a place called Earthland, and I was brought here…..to help free the Bakugan." He finished with a serious tone, getting her to smile.

"Well how about this: since I'm the leader of the Brawler Resistance and we're short on hands, why don't you join us and together, we can free them all."

"Aren't you a Vestal as well?" Leo asked in suspicion.

"Yes, but I'll explain later. So…." She extended her hand. "Will you join us?" Natsu was in a tough situation. On one hand, Leo was right as she looked kinda like Lync and Volt, yet she looked like she was against them. On the other hand, he had no idea where to go to free the Bakugan, and she WAS offering him a place on her team. Just mentioning that word made him smile a bit as it reminded him of his own team back home. With a toothy grin, he took her hand.

"I'm in."

AAANNNDDDD THAT FINISHES THE INTRO TO THIS HOPEFULLY SUCCESSFUL CROSSOVER! I know it took a while to make(if you count 3 days a while), but since I didn't want to take my laptop in fear of it being stolen, I kept it at home. Trust me, the whole day i was in Mexico, I was thinking of this story, hence why a new chapter is up. I do wanna keep you guys informed that I have other stories, so updates for this story may vary, plus I have a project to do for Theater, so that's why this is up early.

Anyways, this story will follow Canon, with a few significant changes such as the Aquos and Ventus brawlers on the team, though I do plan on adding another brawler with the same element as Natsu, who of course is Pyrus. So how will our boy handle New Vestroia, and how will this help him when he goes back home, which *spoiler* he does with his new friends. As for his clothes, I will have him where something similar to how Dan wore his, so be on the lookout for that.

Like, Fav, Review and PM as I love feedback for the next chapter

Next Time: Natsu vs. Ace!(Not fire fist)

Let's see if Natsu has what it takes to be a
