It was another day in class, just right after the events that transpired last chapter. Everyone saw the Bakugan that was with Megumi, but they were too blatantly in a panic to recognize her. The real challenge was to clear the chocolate out of the classroom. But it was doable, for the janitors. If there's one job you don't want, it's to be a janitor on February the 14th.

"(Kaiba Corp. is doing really well. Lucky I bought their stocks.)" Kay thought to himself as he shuffled through the newspaper. "(Rubber prices just sky-rocketed nowadays, maybe I should-)"

"Do you even know stock marketing is?" Dokae, peering over his shoulder.

"This isn't the comics?" Kay, turning around.

"Typical." Dokae, smacking her face.

"Now that I think about it..." Ryuuji, rocking his chair. "How do you pronounce Dokae? Is it Do-Kay or Do-Ka-Eh?"

"It's the second one." Sorata answered. "Gee, how did you pronounce it all this time?"

"I don't know." Ryuuji, shrugging. "It's not like we have voices and stuff."

"Point taken." Sorata sighed. "Whoops, the teacher's here."

Sorata went to sit back at his desk. Ryuuji briefly wondered if the teacher is a major antagonist for being mentioned. Then he just shrugged it off.

"As you all know, tomorrow, each and every one of you has to choose a sports club and a culture club to join." The teacher explained, not even bothering to have the students greet him.

"Clubs...?" Ryuuji, raising an eyebrow.

"Co-curricular a-activities a-actually..." Hikari corrected. "W-we just call t-them clubs b-because t-they're quite s-similar."

"(That make about as much sense as how Klaus got to Vestroia!)" Ryuuji thought.

"And if you forget to come, you can kiss college life goodbye!" The teacher shouted. "And another thing..."

"The daily routine." Ryuuji muttered.

The teacher took a chalk and threw it at the one character who would annoy the hell out of any teacher. You know who it is. I know you do.

...

...

...

Kameru. She sleeps like a log in the middle of class, so is there really a surprise? But the surprise really does kick in. In the middle of her sleep, she dodged the chalk, making it hit the person sitting behind her. No worries, it wasn't a major character, so who cares?

The teacher then picked up three chalks and tossed them at Kameru. She was dodging them like she was in a Matrix movie. The teacher started to get annoyed.

"And here comes the big guns." Ryuuji, placing both hands behind his head as if he's enjoying all this.

The teacher pulled a semi-auto rifle out of hyperspace and started shooting at her. Her response? She catches all the bullets with one hand while asleep which prompts the teacher to-

"Can we just skip this pointless banter and go straight to breaktime?" Dokae, sounding a little mad.


On the roof

"Aww man." Ryuuji, disappointed.

The group... Why do I always seem to avoid the words Battle Brawlers? It's too long I guess. Anyway, the group met up on the roof as usual. Kay told them about last chapter's events so they had him invite Megumi to join them for interrogation.

"So, what is it that you want?" she asked. "(OMG Sorata's right there! Don't do anything to embarrass yourself!)"

"Who the hell is this?" Ryuuji, raising an eyebrow.

"Megumi Fimiroe from the third class." Kay answered. "And also my neighbour."

"More like your girlfriend." Ryuuji snarked.

"What?" Megumi and Kay asked in unison.

"Nothing."

"So whaddaya want?" Megumi asked again.

"Do you remember anything from yesterday?" Dokae asked.

Megumi blushed hard. She then whispered into Kay's ear.

"What. Did. You. Tell. Them?" She asked, with an obvious angry tone.

"That you got an oversized watch. That's all." Kay whispered back.

"So?" Dokae asked.

"Well, after I met up with Sorata-"

"Wait, I didn't even see you yesterday." Sorata interrupted.

"Huh? B-but we met up and this and that happened and..."

"But I was in the library reading for most of the break period."

"Tell me." Dokae butts in. "Did you happen to meet a blond guy with a mask after that?"

"Yeah." She answered. "His hair was glowing... Like... Like a... A Super Saiyan."

"And did he give you the Gauntlet?"

"Yes. After that, I decided to take out my frustrations on Kay like always."

"Poor butt monkey." Ryuuji snarked.

"Say, what did you and 'me' talk about anyway?" Sorata asked.

"Uh... Uh... Ah..." Megumi, her face redder than Char's Zaku. On second thoughts, a chilli, cause I doubt you recognize Char's Zaku.

She ran away. Kay ran to catch up with her.

"Run for your love, Kay. Run for your love." Ryuuji snarked.

"Ryuuji, d-do you l-like the i-idea o-of Kay a-and Megumi t-together?" Hikari asked.

"No!"

"Changing the subject." Dokae said. "Blond masked guy, let's call him Char, decided to hand out Gauntlets."

"Where did he get them from?" Sorata asked.

"No clue." Dokae responded. "So Char hands them out to two people, Tyler and Megumi. Why them?"

"Don't ask me!" Ryuuji shrugged.

"I'd make the connection that the both of them were frustrated." Dokae, sounding more and more like a detective. "Megumi said she took out her frustrations on Kay. Tyler was frustrated when he thought that that a certain sleepy head was taken."

"Ah-Hah!" Ryuuji, snapping his fingers. "So the Gauntlets are given to frustrated people so they could wreak havoc?"

"Possibly." Sorata said.

"B-but what a-about the s-second S-Sorata that M-Megumi m-met?" Hikari asked.

"I lied." Sorata, shrugging. "We met and talked about food. Nothing big."

"Ryuuji, I have an idea on how to lure him out." Dokae said. "And only you can do it. You'll have to team up with Kameru on this."

"I'd say no..." Ryuuji answered. "But pairing me up with Kameru makes me say never."

"Hold on a second." Leonidas said as it came out of Ryuuji's pocket.

"A rare moment when a Bakugan talks!" Sorata, ecstatic.

Yeah, it is quite rare to see a Bakugan talk in this fanfic.

"I'd say we should do it. I want to test my strength in these Gauntlet Brawls." Leonidas continues.

"Fine." Ryuuji, sounding a tad reluctant.

G'don itself came out of Kameru's... Wait, high school miniskirts don't have pockets. Well, it came out from SOMEWHERE.

"I'm in." It said. "I'm curious about The 7 Council."

"Meh... So fast forward to the next day to give suspense on this plan of Dokae's?" Ryuuji, holding his head on his palm. "...Where's Kay?"


The next day, it was time to pick a club. The first one was a culture club. Everyone else already know which club they want to join, after all, they did join those same clubs the last year. But only one had to walk around the school to find a club. The transfer student. You know who.

He wandered the halls and came across many clubs. The home economics club, the woodshop club and so on. But of note was a strange club located at what should be the AVA room. It didn't have a sign like the others, so out of curiosity, he opened it.

And then slammed it shut. His face only had the words, "What has been seen cannot be unseen" written all over it.

"Sorata didn't lie..." Ryuuji muttered.

He kept on wandering until he turned up at a certain club. The manga and anime club. He decided to join it because they might do cosplay and the female members may have to... Never mind.

The only other members that he recognizes are Hikari and Kay. Kay definitely has an otaku vibe to him but Hikari never seems to read manga. At school at least.

The next 30 minutes is quite boring as their just discussions on what the best anime is. Some vote Bleach, some vote Naruto, some vote One Piece. But they all don't know that the best goddamn anime has got to be Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann! I mean, it's made of awesome and epic and it's a hundred billion times better than those anime put together and-

"Shut up with your fanboyism!" Ryuuji shouted.

Right. Anway, it was time to go pick a sports club. Just the day before, Dokae ordered Ryuuji to go join the baseball team. He didn't know what baseball is, but he joined anyway.

They were having tryouts. There was a long line. Ryuuji looked at it and assumed you have to throw the ball and have the crouching guy catch it while making sure the guy with the wood thing doesn't hit it. Yes, that is his exact train of thought.

So after a long wait, it was finally his turn. He really doesn't know much. He thought you have to throw the ball with your glove hand. The players laughed at him and the coach scolded him. Either way, they let him throw, just for the embarrassment.

He picked up the ball. The least he knew was to throw it at the catcher, making sure the ball dodges the batter.

Ryuuji juggled it for a bit and then threw the ball as hard as he can. The batter swung his bat, but to no avail.

"Strike one!" the coach shouted.

It was time for his second throw. Ryuuji threw the ball again. And again, the batter swung, but missed.

"Strike two!" the coach shouted.

And time for the last throw. This time, the batter was prepared for another fast one. He straightened up his body and opened his legs wide.

Ryuuji juggled the ball. Then he held it and glared at the batter dead-on. He stretched his arm way back and threw it as hard as possible.

The batter was prepared for this and swung in perfect timing. Supposedly, he would have managed to hit the ball, but something beyond the impossible happened.

The ball Ryuuji threw broke through the bat and went to the catcher, sending him several feet back. It was a steel bat mind you. The coach was obviously impressed. He grabbed Ryuuji's right arm and held it up in the air.

"We have found our power pitcher!" He shouted.

"Power... Bitcher...?" Ryuuji muttered.

"But I'm the power pitcher!" a boy wearing a cap said with sadness in his tone.

"You can be the relief pitcher." The coach answered.

"Can you put me down?" Ryuuji asked.

"But we never use the relief pitchers!" the boy said.

"Your only talent is to throw fast balls, he does it better. It's just business." The coach said.

The boy remained quiet throughout the entire tryout. Ryuuji was given a baseball outfit by the coach and a pat on the back. The coach himself said that he'll be a powerful asset to the team.

But he still has no clue how to play baseball.


The meeting was over. Ryuuji was officially a team member... Of a game he never heard of. Leonidas came out of Ryuuji's pocket.

"Follow that kid with the cap." It said.

"Why?" Ryuuji, taking a sip of a bottle of water.

"I think this is all part of Dokae's plan." It answered.

Ryuuji stalked the boy with the cap, watching his actions closely. He stumbled upon Kameru, who's also stalking him. But what's more surprising is that she's awake.

"Uh... Why are you stalking the cap guy?" Ryuuji asked.

"Same reason as you. I think the blond masked guy is going to approach him." Kameru answered. "Dokae told me so."

"(And here I thought Sorata was the leader.)" Ryuuji thought to himself.

The boy hid behind a bush, probably to cry without being noticed. And just as expected, the masked blond guy came, through teleportation. There wasn't a portal, he just appeared there.

"Do you-" The blond guy said, but was interrupted by this.

"RAAAAAAAAAH!" Ryuuji screamed as he charged at the blond guy.

He charged in a slammed into the blond guy. Or was supposed to, but the blond guy moved aside, making Ryuuji topple to the ground.

"Oh, you must be one of the kids who've been helping us out in our experiment." He said.

"Experiments...?" Ryuuji muttered. "You're one of the 7 Council aren't you?"

"Yes."

"Where did you get those Gauntlets you've been giving out?"

"We develop them ourselves, to create a perfect imitation of the ones you possess."

"And you use angsty teenagers... As lab rats?"

"Is there something wrong with that?"

"Of course there's something wrong with that!" Ryuuji shouted, grabbing Leonidas. "Leonidas, Brawl!"

Leonidas transfigured from ball form to Bakugan form or whatever you call it. It's pretty large, about two storeys tall.

"Leonidas...? Hmph. It seems I'll just have to use myself as a lab rat." The blond guy said as he strapped on the Gauntlet he was supposed to give to the cap boy.

Speaking of cap boy, he ran away as soon as he saw Leonidas. Coward.

"Bakugan, Brawl!" the blond guy shouted.

The Bakugan he threw was a Haos Bakugan. Unlike Tyler and Megumi, he didn't summon it from hyperspace. He had it with him the whole time.

The Bakugan he had looked like a white knight... With a trenchcoat. Yes, it doesn't really make sense. It's a white suit of armour, with all the colour schemes of a Haos Bakugan. But it wears what seems to be a black trenchcoat. And on its right hand, it what looks like a huge sword, but the handle is long enough to consider it to be a spear.

Kameru ran out of hiding. Unlike her usual lazy self, this time, she seemed quite psyched. She strapped on her Gauntlet, grabbed G'don and shouted,

"Bakugan, Brawl!" and threw it near the blond guy.

"Two on one?" the blond guy sighed. "Doesn't matter. I'll beat the both of you."

"I don't usually fight someone without the knowledge of their name." Ryuuji, sounding cocky.

"Haos." The blond guy said as he prepared for whatever the two of them had to throw at him. "I've told you too much."

"Gauntlet, Start! Field, Open!" both Ryuuji and Kameru yelled in unison.


The three of them were transported to the Bakugan interspace. Haos was noticeably shocked. It is probable that it's the first time he played a Gauntlet Brawl. But he seemed pretty confident, that's for sure.

"Go, Izanagi!" Haos shouted, pointing at Leonidas.

His Bakugan, Izanagi, moved in on Leonidas. Although having a humanoid form, it floats in the air. It slashed Leonidas with its spear and then punched it with its empty hand.

From behind, G'don tried a sneak attack. But Izanagi saw through that and smacked G'don with the handle of the spear.

"It's strong..." Leonidas mumbled.

"Then we'll just have to get stronger!" Ryuuji shouted. "Gate Card, Set!"

He slid in the Gate Card, Bakugan Duo. The sky turned dark and the trees in the area started to light on fire. It represents Darkus and Pyrus, which the Gate Card increases nicely.

"Now, Dragon Drive!" Ryuuji shouted as he slid in the Attack Card, Dragon Drive.

Leonidas flew into the air. Its body took on a dark aura. It then proceeded to crash into Izanagi like a shooting star.

Kameru didn't stop with the chain either. She shouted,

"Attack Card, Activate!" Kameru, sliding in the Attack Card, Comet.

From the sky, a comet broke through the atmosphere and slammed into Izanagi, creating a huge crater on the ground.

"Not bad, human." Izanagi said.

"Not bad at all." Haos continued. "Attack Card, Activate!"

Haos slid in the Attack Card, God Finger. Izanagi tossed its spear to its left hand. Its right hand started burning red. It then moved toward G'don, caught it with its right hand and held it up in the air.

G'don was struggling. It kicked Izanagi repeatedly with its four feet. That's when Izanagi got annoyed. It let out some sort of pulse from its right hand which resulted in a large explosion. The explosion caused a lot of smoke to move into the air.

As the smoke cleared, Ryuuji looked around to see if everyone is fine. That's when he noticed Izanagi holding its spear at Kameru's neck. G'don only stood there and can only watch in horror. Haos was behind Izanagi and looked at Ryuuji.

"If you move a single muscle, Izanagi will have her head cut off." He said, crossing his arms.

"Isn't that way too brutal for a fanfic on a kid's show?" Ryuuji tried to reason.

"Does it seem like I care?" Haos spouted back. "Now, order Leonidas to turn into ball form."

"How?"

"Just tell it to."

"Leonidas, turn into a ball?" Ryuuji, slightly confused.

Leonidas turned back into a ball and dropped to the ground. Ryuuji picked it up.

"Now hand it to me." Haos continued ordering.

"Don't!" Kameru shouted.

Ryuuji glared at Leonidas which was on his palm. He clutched it and closed his eyes.

"Well?" Haos asked.

"Bite me."

Ryuuji threw Leonidas at Izanagi's head. The throw was strong enough for it to lose balance, and long enough for Kameru to escape.

"Leonidas Brawl!" Ryuuji shouted quickly.

At this point, Izanagi was surrounded. Ryuuji took out one Attack Card, whereas Kameru took out two.

"Alpha Blaster!" Ryuuji shouted, sliding it in.

"Fusion!" Kameru shouted as she slid in Flare Claw and Tigress Roar. "Burning Roar!"

Leonidas slew up into the sky and let out an energy blast from its mouth. G'don maintained its position and roared at Izanagi, shooting flames from its mouth.

These two attacks together should be enough to take Izanagi out... But Haos slid in his own card.

"Shield Card, Activate!" he yelled.

He slid in the card, Almighty Guard, which completely defends Izanagi from harm. In other words, the attack was rendered null.

"Oh you jackass." Ryuuji said with annoyance.

"Cross-Fusion!" Haos shouted with a grin as he slid in four different Attack Cards. "Megidoladyne!"

Three energy balls appeared from the sky. They spun around one another as they slowly moved toward the ground. As they reach the ground, they combine into an even bigger energy ball. It was unable to contain the mass of energy and proceeded to explode with the force of a nuclear bomb.

To elaborate, Izanagi nuked the school. The only people safe from this was Haos and Izanagi. Both Leonidas and G'don's HP was reduced to 0, meaning that Haos won.


All of them were sent back to the real world. Ryuuji and Kameru felt the brunt of the nuke, but it was only psychological. They feel like they're in pain, but it's only in their heads. Their bodies are perfectly fine. Kameru fainted really quickly.

"I was going to take Leonidas..." Haos, crossing his arms. "But he's much weaker than I thought. You might as well keep him."

"You... Dirty..." Leonidas mumbled.

"Anyhow, since you helped me with my test, I'll have to reward you. I'll answer one question you have." Haos said with an arrogant tone.

"What are...The 7 Council planning?" Ryuuji asked without thinking twice as he held his chest in pain.

"It... Has something to do with the ley points around town." Haos shrugged. "Not that you know what or where the hell they're supposed to be."

"That doesn't answer my-"

"I didn't say I would answer properly." Haos grinned.

"Oh... You... Jack... Ass..." Ryuuji, slowly becoming unconscious.

Haos then warped out of the place. He didn't seem to have any sort of device, so it must be some sort of innate ability or something.


The 7 Council seemed to have another meeting.

"My lord." Haos said as he bowed. "The Gauntlets work perfectly fine now. Something happened, so I had to use myself to run the experiment."

"Huh." Vent crossed his arms. "So, we can go ahead with our mission now?"

"Yes." The throne guy said. "All of you, take a Gauntlet and proceed with our mission. We must purify the world."

"Yessir!" the other 6 said together.

After that, they were adjourned and teleported to God knows where.


So... How did Klaus get to Vestroia?
