Guess who's updating now! I realized last chapter didn't get much of a response, but…. Who cares, right? I'm still posting because I enjoy posting stories like this and I know you all love it deep down inside. ^^

Disclaimer: I do not own Bakugan.

Chapter three: Sally

"Are you done corrupting her yet?" I asked one of my lab workers. The woman pressed a button, showing the Aquos Bakugan suspended with her bottom quarter of her body in dark water. She was panting very lightly. "Take that as a no."

"Susan spoiled her," she explained.

"Amy." My partner popped up on my shoulder. "Unspoil her for me."

"Yes, mistress." The Bakugan was sent into the chamber with Sirenoid and switched to real mode once she was in enough space. "Aquos Sirenoid, you are causing many problems for my mistress." The other lifted her head to look at Amy.

"She just sent my partner to a horrible dimension. You, Amy, sent my partner to your world where no human may return. I will never join your group."

I smirked lightly. 'Strike one,' I thought.

"Sally is really kind to her Bakugan, you know. She only requires us to call her mistress as a show of respect."

"That is not the actions of one who is kind! She is a controlling maniac that has a sweet face and deceptively calm voice to hide it!"

'Strike two.' I can see Amy's anger rising. And she doesn't get angry very easily.

"It is an honor to be chosen to join Sally's team. She only chooses the most powerful of the powerful. The cards she uses will make you undefeatable. You will experience power like never before."

"I'd rather die!" 'Strike three. Sirenoid, you. Are. Out,' I thought even as Amy slammed into her. Holding her down, the Haos Bakugan opened her mouth and blasted the Aquos point blank with a Sonic Boom.

"You arrogant, insufferable, unappreciative witch! You are going to switch to Sally's team, and you are going to like it!"

"And who's going to make me?"

"Raise her again!" My Bakugan flew up to the power source as the other was raised once again. Amy switched attributes, going from Haos to Darkus, and sent a Darkus Blast into the source. "Let's see you resist this one."

"Do it," I ordered the lab woman as she hesitated briefly. She paused before pressing the button. The Aquos Bakugan screamed as dark bolts shocked her in various parts of her body and the water turned even darker. After a few moments, Sirenoid was the color of dark water.

"Successfully corrupted. Thank you, Amy." I caught the two Bakugan as they popped out to me in sphere mode. "You are much more competent than someone I know."

"Always a pleasure to serve, mistress."

I walked out of the lab with Amy on my shoulder, my long hair swishing gently with each step. I found my group sitting in the TV room watching some news report. With… the… Brawlers.

"So, Dan. Do you have an announcement to make?" a reporter asked. My brother stepped closer to the podium.

"Until further notice, the Brawlers are cancelling the Interspace Tournament. This new threat is too dangerous to be put in the back of our minds. We are going to eliminate this threat."

"You can try, better dearest," I taunted.

"Also, we suggest that all brawlers avoid a battle against Sal…ly. There is no doubt she will use that card."

"What exactly is so dangerous about this Sally?"

Dan looked back at Shun, who stepped up to the podium as he stepped back. "Sally has a team of really powerful Bakugan she had found in Rome. The most powerful is Amy, the only Bakugan able to use Amy's World. This card is a portal of sorts that will only transport brawlers to that dimension. Our research shows anyone, including Sally herself, can be sent there if he/she is still grounded upon activation."

"So what do you suggest brawlers do?"

"Like Dan said, avoid battle with her at all costs. If you battle against Sally, jump the instant she activates the gatecard. And stay up until the card is destroyed because the portal will remain open until the card is off the field. And if you end up there, look for Mira, Ace, and Barron. They will help…."

"Let's give the Brawlers something to really warn the world about," I sang softly, now tired of hearing their voices. The group stood and followed me away.
