Monkey Business

It was a normal afternoon in Konoha, but a strange portal came into view, confusing some people.

Then suddenly a fireball is seen flying in. When it landed, a large mandrill-like being with thick red fur, blue streaks near his head, a long dark brown staff, a purple jewel on his forehead and also a stern look in it's blank, blue eyes. It screeched as its jewel glowed brightly.

People looked surprised as he large ape growled, showing his dark eyes to them. He then says in a strange tone "Where is the one known as Konohamaru Sarutobi?"

"Why do you want him?" asked a voice, and the large ape-like Bakugan turned to see Hanabi, with Eldin on her shoulder.

"Yeah, ya big palooka!" Eldin yelled, annoyed. The ape roars a bit as he flicked the two like fleas.

"My fight is not with you." Said the ape, climbing a building so it can get away.

Hanabi rubbed her head and says, "Eldin, lets get that monkey."

"Even thought that sounded weird, but sure." Said Eldin as she glowed bright blue. She then turned into her true form, as she says "We might need some air, so time to change attributes."

She puts her fingers into a "O" shape and blew into it, making a bubble; a green one at that. She jumped in and suddenly began to change shape; her skin turned light green, her eyes turned dark green, her hat gained feathers and darker green color, her outfit turned a darker shade of purple and her hair suddenly turned into a ponytail.

Eldin smirked and says, "Now in the house, is VENTUS ELDIN!" She smiled as she picked up Hanabi and took off in flight, surprising the poor girl.

"I didn't know you could fly!" Hanabi screamed, hanging on for dear life.

Eldin looked sheepish at that. "I forgot to mention that?" she asked as she flew to catch up with the ape. "Man, that Verias is a quick monkey."

"A what?" asked Hanabi, as she saw a portal come overhead and suddenly a small wind flew down? "What was that?"

"Seems that another Bakugan has appeared. But who's is it?" Eldin asked, as she shrugged.

In the training grounds, Rock Lee was kicking a large tree stump, waiting for Naruto and the others. Naruto told Lee and his teacher, Gai; that they would be trained to use jutsu so they can be protected from others.

Lee sighs as he says "120 kicks! But I need to do 30 more!" as he continued to kick.

Then a kind voice says, "Don't over exert yourself." Lee looked confused as suddenly a light-green Bakugan flew down and landed in his hands. It opened up, shaping itself as a butterfly with a humanoid face.

"Who are you?" Lee asked, completely confused.

"I am Ventus Monarus." She said, looking up at him. "And you are?"

"I am Rock Lee, the Beautiful Green Beast of Konoha!" said Lee, as Monarus sweat-dropped.

"O-kay then…" said Monarus, confused now. She then asks "what is going on here exactly?"

"Just waiting for some friends." Said Lee, shrugging a bit. "Wonder where they're at."

With some of the girls, Mira was talking to some of the female Brawlers, telling them about Reaper's process. Near-by was a red cube with the Pyrus symbol on it. It opened to reveal a monkey-like being with a strange mask. He noticed Julie and jumped ahead.

"He seems to be acting a bit calmer then he used to. At least now I know we can trust him." said Mira, shrugging.

Gorem then says "How can we be so sure?"

Runo shrugs and sighs. "Who knows, right?" The girls nod, as Julie suddenly yelped.

"What's wrong?" asked Alice, confused.

Julie then began to rub her back, as she says "I felt something go into my shirt!"

Tigrerra asks, "What is it?"

"No idea, but it feels like a cube to me." Said Julie, a bit nervous. Runo got behind her friend and saw a cube-shaped bulge in the back of her shirt.

"Found it." Said Runo, reaching under it and grabbing it and taking it out, revealing…the Bakugan trap from before. "Where did this come from?" asked Runo, confused.

"Just thought I would drop in." said the monkey-like Trap, opening up and getting out of her hand and onto her…chest? "Hmm, nice." Said the monkey, as if smirking in his true form.

Runo just looked annoyed as she flicked him off. "Do that again, and I'll drop you in a sewer." She warned, annoyed. The monkey nods and then smirked.

"Name's Pyrus Craziny by the way." Said the monkey, know known as Craziny. He then jumped onto Julie's chest and says "Wow…these are pretty nice to."

Julie's eyes went wide, as Gorem gave him a look. Gorem then noticed Julie's face. "Uh…Julie? You okay?" asked her partner, as suddenly a dark red color began to spread from her neck to her forehead.

Mira looked confused as Alice and Runo covered their ears. Julie's ear began to create steam as the Bakugans turned into ball form and hid in their partner's pockets.

Billy and Cycloid were still looking around, as a ear-splitting scream is heard, and Billy recognized it.

"That was Julie!" said Billy, looking surprised.

"I think she might be in trouble." Said Cycloid, as he turned to where the scream came from. "Man…if she is in trouble, how will we get there in time to help her?"

"No idea." Said Billy, a bit worried now.

"Maybe I can help?" asked a voice from nowhere, freaking Billy out enough to almost fall from his partner's shoulder. "Hmm?" the voice sounded confused at that.

"Who said that?" asked Cycloid, his eye looking to a tree to see a young man with spiky red hair, light green eyes, a red cloak, a light-gray chest plate, dark gray pants with some bandages on his right leg, and also a large gourd made of a sand-like material on his back, with the opening blocked by a cork. His arms were crossed, looking down at Billy.

Billy asks, "Who are you?" The young man looked at him calmly as he dropped down, landing on Cycloid's hammer.

"I am Gaara, Kazekage of the Sand Village." The young man, known as Gaara, said calmly, looking down at him. "I heard some screaming from Konoha, know who that is?"

"I know the screaming; it's my girlfriend, Julie. She needs help. Think you can get me to where she's at?"

Gaara nods and gets out something from his pouch; a Bakugan? "What's that?" asked Cycloid, confused.

Gaara threw the Bakugan up and suddenly it glowed bright orange, and suddenly a giant, light-brown worm with dark brown armor-like material going down it's back, large teeth in it's mouth, with a smaller one inside of it, showing more teeth.

"A Wormquake! Where did you get that?" Billy asked, surprised. The worm roared as it dug itself into the ground, coming back up for Gaara to land on it's head, looking at Billy.

"Come on, we need Wormquake to get us to Konoha." Gaara said calmly as Billy nods and jumps onto Wormquake's back, as Cycloid turned back into ball form and Billy hung on.

"Lets go!" said Billy as the large worm began to dig downward.

When they got to Konoha, Billy and Gaara were surprised to see Gorem in his full form, trying to smash a strange creature.

The creature appeared to be a large Monkey, around Squire's size, with dark red fur with a yellow tip on it's tail, it wore a strange-looking mask that resembled a monkey-tiki, a bamboo chest plate with the Pyrus insignia painted on it, black arm bands with a couple red and yellow beads, and holding a medium-size stick-like staff with a fireball floating over the "Y" shaped tip. This was Craziny's true form.

The monkey screeched in fear as it saw Gorem standing over him. "GIGA IMPACT!" yelled Gorem, swinging his hammer at him.

Craziny yelped and yells, "SUN TRAP!" And suddenly a beam of orange light, hitting Gorem in the chest, freezing him in place.

"Why can't I move?" asked Gorem, confused as he tried to move his left leg.

"My Sun Trap move can freeze my opponents at my will." Craziny laughed under his mask, jumping onto Gorem's head and begins to drum a bit on it.

Cycloid turns to his full size and says "Get off of him, you dirty ape!" and swings his hammer. But when he tried to hit Craziny, the Monkey only jumps up and hits Gorem in the face. "Sorry Gorem."

"It's alright." Said Gorem, finally able to move again. Billy slid off of Wormquake and saw Julie, who was beet red and covering her chest.

"You all right Julie?" he asked, running to her. She then threw her arms around her, hiding her face in his neck.

"That little chimp grabbed my chest!" Julie whimpered, as Billy looked REALLY mad.

"Cycloid! Turn that monkey into a pancake!" Billy said, as Cycloid nods.

"ROCKY PUNCH!" yelled Cycloid, punching Craziny Square in the face, sending the ape flying. Gorem gripped his hammer, ready to hit him back.

"TALCO's HAMMER!" yelled Gorem, smacking Craziny hard with his hammer, sending the Pyrus Trap back into cube-mode.

"Ow…" groaned the monkey, in pain. That's when the Brawlers showed up, and Lucifer picked up the small Bakugan.

"What'd he do that made Julie scream?" asked Lucifer, looking at Craziny weirdly.

"He jumped onto my chest like it was a life-times supply of bananas!" Julie screamed out, as Runo nods.

"Same here." Said Runo, a bit mad. Dan, Naruto and Ace looked pretty miffed at that.

"THAT'S NOT COOL, YOU KNOW!" yelled Dan, glaring at the monkey.

"Not to mention perverted!" Naruto yelled.

"Think Percival can take this stupid chimp down?" Ace asked, as he got Percival's ball-form out.

Konohamaru walked in and asks, "What was that yelling from?" He then noticed Craziny and asks "what the heck is that?"

"SAVE ME FROM THESE PSYCHOS!" yelled Craziny, as a dual scream is heard. "Hmm?" asked Craziny, looking up. "Oh look, a Dual Elfin and a human girl falling from the air."

"Wait, what?" asked Dan, confused. He looked up and saw Eldin and Hanabi were indeed falling. "Drago!" he said.

"On it!" said the Dragonoid, turning to his true form and catching the two. "Gotcha!"

"Thanks." Said Eldin, as Drago landed safely on the ground. But before he could let Hanabi down gently, she tripped and fell off of his hands and landed…right on top of Konohamaru!

The two looked at each other, feeling awkward since Hanabi was on top of him. The two blushed as she got off. "Sorry Konohamaru-san."

"It's alright Hanabi." Said Konohamaru, getting up.

"You know each other?" asked Naruto, as Hinata, Kiba and Lee came in.

"Yeah, we were in the same class in the Academy." Said Konohamaru, as Hanabi nods, smiling.

"What made you two fall like rocks?" asked Kiba, confused. Then a screech is heard.

"Him!" said Hanabi, pointing to Verias, who was on top of a building, screeching loudly as he jumped down, his staff in hand.

"Master Verias!" said Craziny, turning to his full form again and jumping onto the larger ape's shoulder.

"Which one of you is Konohamaru Sarutobi?" asked Verias, beating his staff down, as he jumped down in front of the Brawlers and the Ninjas.

"What do you want with him?" asked Hynoid, confused.

Craziny laughed and says, "We need to see if he's a good partner for this big ol' ape."

Konohamaru walked up and says "I'm right here, Monkey-boy."

Verias roars as he says "Alright, boy. Lets see what ya got!"

"Uh…he doesn't have a Bakugan." Naruto reminded the large ape, as it sighed.

"Fine, who wants to fight with him?" asked Craziny, as all of the Brawler's Bakugans just go into their partner's pockets.

"No thank you." Reaper said calmly as he closed up as well.

Hynoid says "Nah!" as he closed up and rolled near Akumaru, who barked a bit.

Siege says, "Sorry boy, But I must decline." He went into Hinata's pocket. Wormquake just goes underground.

Eldin says "I'll fight with him."

"Really?" asked Hanabi, surprised. Why did Eldin want to fight Verias with Konohamaru?

"One, because I want a piece of those two chimps. And two: I know you and him like each other." Said Eldin, giggling at the last part. The two tweens blushed at that, as Eldin smirked.

"Let us do battle, child." Said Verias, screeching as he beats his chest, roaring as Craziny got down on to the ground, growling as well.

Konohamru jumped onto Eldin's shoulder, as the frog-girl growled, her hands forming with a wind and water mix. She and Verias jumped at each other, ready to fight.

End of Chapter 10

Sorry about the cliffhanger, but anyway, if anyone has any ideas for whom Alice should end up with, I got a poll up. And also…I would like to see what couples you would like to see (Besides Naruhina and Naruto/Mira, since I'm going to mix the two couples into a three-way couple)

Anyway, please Read, Review and Suggest away! Also, I got a new Naruto story up called "The Dark Sands". Please check it out.
