Author's Note: Since they're gonna' be going to Barran Desert, I thought I'd share one of my crazy moments there when I was playing the game, or the Bootleg, anyway. Anyway, So I was running through Barran Desert, Training Kochia, when, Cryptoride called me. Guess what he said, "Are you on the Bird side or Snake side? I like the Snakes because they are beautiful." And I thought, "Wow, how much more can that one sentence possibly be any more out of character?" Also when Luigi400000 was playing Jade Version he got a call from Fungblade, And Fungblade swore. But yeah, just thought I'd share that with you all.

As the Denjuu kept winning against T-Fangers with 1 hit KO attacks…

"Wow, you got here surprisingly fast." A man blocking a cave said.

"That was so easy, It doesn't even deserve to be called a warm up!" Cryptoride said.

"That was probably because of our power, though…" Kochia said.

"Anyway, I'd like to see how I'll fare against yo-"

"Don't even bother." Cryptoride said.

"Hmm… Well, your prize is just inside this cave. Go ahead!"

"…Nerikara?" Fungblade said as he saw him pacing the floor.

"Oh, hello Denjuu. I see you've won the Tournament!" Nerikara said.

"Then why are you here? Are you the one that set it up?" Armaru said.

"No, actually. I snuck in here before the Tournament started, because I heard the Prize Is the newest model D-Shot. I was thinking of using it to become A T-Fanger so I don't need random guards to fight for me. Also because I don't have Tabasco anymore…"

"Heck, you take it, then." Cryptoride said.

"But you've earned it! Please, go right ahead." Nerikara said.

"We're Denjuu. What could we possibly do with a D-Shot? Even if it was a D-Shot that Denjuu use, we don't plan on having T-Fangers."

"Hmm…"

"And I know you'll give us a good fight later. I'm looking forward to it." Cryptoride said as they walked back to Freesia.

"Hey you're the Denjuu that won, right? Where's your T-Fanger, anyway?" A man with a Camera ran up to them.

"Don't got one." Cryptoride said.

"…So Wild Denjuu won the Tournament? Where're you from?"

"Toronko Village."

"All four of you? Hmm, Toronko Village doesn't have all that strong Denjuu there either…"

"We had our share of training."

"Well, good luck with your travels, then!" He ran off.

"Where to now?" Armaru said.

"…The Barran Desert might be a good place to start." Kochia said.

"Wait, Desert?" Fungblade said.

"Yeah… What about it?" Armaru said.

"Oh, Field Type." Kochia figured out.

"Huh?" Armaru and Cryptoride were confused.

"Field Types have a Type Disadvantage to Desert Types."

"Oh…"

"N-no need to worry about me! I'm sure I'll pull through!" Fungblade said, with a face of false bravery.

"Hey, if you're not feeling up to it, you can always stay here. There's no need to charge into a battle you can't win. I learned that the hard way…" Cryptoride said.

"Cryptoride…"

"Also because I don't want you to experience how it feels to be so… Powerless. Against a place full of Denjuu that have a Type Advantage on you."

"I… I'm going with you." Fungblade looked up at Cryptoride.

"But…"

"I'm going to do what you did, back in Netaro's Cave. You were at a Type Disadvantage nearly every fight, but you fought on anyway. It's strength like that I'm trying to use now…"

"Okay, but… Stay out of trouble, okay? We need you with us."

"We leavin' yet?" Armaru said.

"Yeah, let's go." Cryptoride said walking inside Barran Desert.

"Oh, hello there fellow Denjuu, I was just on my way to play with my doll inside my favorite cave… I'm Cortos, by the way. I just thought I'd introduce myself…" Cortos walked past the Team.

"That sounded… Odd." Kochia said.

"Very." Cryptoride said.

"Do you think it has something to do with what's going on in town? Just an idea." Fungblade said.

"Let's go see!" Armaru said.

"What's up with everyone? It looks like the whole Town's in a 50 on 50 battle!" Cryptoride said, looking around town.

"That's because… The Birds and the Snakes are having a fight." A Denjuu behind the Team said.

"No kidding." Cryptoride said.

"I should have went more into detail, shouldn't I? Anyway, I actually, don't have any idea why the whole fight is happening, but just so you know, Both sides all consist of one kind of Denjuu. The Birds, Like me, are called Ganraikou. The Snakes, called Sorghum." Ganraikou said.

"Then why aren't you fighting with all the snakes?" Fungblade asked.

"I didn't want to get into that clash… So I'm kind of just standing out here until things settle down, but I don't think that's happening for awhile…"

"Well, That's what we're here for! We'll get things goin' good in no time!" Armaru said.

"I wish you good luck… Anyway, if you keep following the path in town, You'll reach this gate. You have to get past Sorghum, but past the gate is where the Snake Leader, Potzal, is. Maybe you can fix things by talking to him."

"It's worth a shot." Kochia said.

The Team slowly walks past all the Fighting Ganraikou and Sorghum, and Make it to the said gate.

"Hey, who are you? You're not Bird nor Snake! What business do you got with us?" Sorghum said.

"We're here to stop this fight the whole town's in." Cryptoride said.

"Here come our saviors, huh? Well, go take your best shot."

"That's it? No fight included?" Armaru said.

"Actually, we don't want this fight to happen either. It's just Potzal refuses to see any of us. No matter it be Ganraikou or us Sorghum. But he might agree to see you, though. You may have to fight to get him to understand, though."

"Thanks for the tip…" Fungblade said, not looking forward to said fight.

The Team walks past the Gate, and quickly find Potzal. He was in the only cave in the whole area.

"Hmm? What do you want?" Potzal said, looking down at the Team.

"We're here to end the Town's fight." Cryptoride said.

"No can do. The Bird Leader, Cortos, has taken the Statue of Friendship away from it's pedestal. As long as it remains missing, we will fight."

"That's… Kind of ridiculous…" Cryptoride said quietly.

"What was that?"

"That's… Ridiculous!" Cryptoride said, louder.

"It's our town's rule. If you can't accept that, I'm going to have to ask you to leave."

"Not with out a fight!"

"Cryptoride! Do you know what you're getting yourself into?" Fungblade said.

So Cryptoride started a Fight with Potzal, and the other Denjuu soon join in…
