(Davis) The Dictators and Negoes succeeded in brainwashing Dan and the original Battle Brawlers, but they weren't expecting us. However, they're after Leonidas. We're doing what we can, but it's not enough. So we're teaming up with former members of the Bakugan Battle Brawlers. We all might come from different worlds, but we're willing to fight together to save our friends.
"Isn't this just great?" Trev said as he was pacing around in his room. "First we lose that Julie girl. Then, we lose that Runo chick. Things aren't looking good for us and I don't want to deal with Negoes when he's mad."
"So what?" Cerus said. "We haven't been able to do any damage against them. If we're going to win against the Brawlers, we're going to need some sort of plan."
"A plan?" Trev said and was starting to do some thinking.
"You coming up with one? You look like you're about to hurt yourself." Cerus said.
"Shut up!" Trev said. "Actually, I might be able to have one. It might be considered disgraceful as battlers, but at this point I don't care. I've had it with those Brawlers getting in our way and we've got to something." He heard the door open up and saw Alice come in.
"Alice? What's she doing here?" Cerus said.
"She's going to help us out." Trev said. "Alice here use to be the brawler known as Masquerade."
"Masquerade? Didn't he use to be a brawler that send bakugan to the Doom Dimension?" Cerus said. "This girl use to be the same person? Not to mention I heard that Masquerade was a boy."
"I don't know how it worked. It's just what I heard." Trev said. "Anyway, Masquerade was considered the number one brawler for a while and Alice is a fellow darkus brawler. I'm sure with her power, those Battle Brawlers won't know what hit them."

Shibuya
"No way! You're the queen of an entire planet?!" Davis said. Fabia was with him in his apartment. Since Fabia is joining them in the battle against the Dictators, he was getting to know her better.
"That's right." Fabia said.
"So how do you know Dan and the others?" Davis asked.
"Dan, along with Shun and Marucho, helped me bring peace between my planet and another one known as Gundalia." Fabia said. "When I heard that they needed help, I just had to come here myself."
"Tell me, Aranaut, what's it like battling alongside a queen?" Leonidas asked.
"A great honor with myself being a knight." Aranaut said. "I just feel sorry for Hawktor and Akwimos. Shun and Marucho use to be their partners. I wish they were here, but I doubt they could actually bring themselves to battle against them."
"So those two were on Neathia while the other old partners of those two were probably in Vestroia. That might have something to do with why they aren't with them now." Leonidas said.
"By the way, how's that Runo girl doing? I've heard about her, but I never got the chance to meet her." Fabia said.
"She and Tigrerra are doing fine. Yolei is keeping an eye on them." Davis said. "Though, she's got to be real worried about Dan."
"She would. She is Dan's girlfriend after all." Leonidas said.
"At least we managed to save her, but we still got some work to do." Fabia said.
"Yeah. It's going to take all of us to win." Davis said with him not knowing what is about to come. "I hope everyone is up for this."

Koichi
Koichi was walking down the street. Since he didn't had much to do with the battle between the Brawlers and the Dictators, all he could do was standby and watch.
"Check this cool combination out." Koichi looked over and saw a few kids talking about their bakugan. "This combo of ours is unbeatable. Wouldn't you say so, Mantris?"
"You can say that again."
"Awesome. I would love to see it for myself." Koichi smiled as he watched the kids talk about their bakugan.
"Must be nice to have a partner." Koichi said.
"Just because you dress in black doesn't mean you need to look depressed." Koichi looked ahead of himself and saw Nikki.
"Nikki!" Koichi said.
"That's my name. You're Koji's twin brother, aren't you? What's your name?" Nikki said.
"It's Koichi. We actually met a couple times before."
"What's the matter Koichi? You seem like you're upset about something." Cursedra said.
"I don't want to trouble you with my problems." Koichi said as he walked past the both of them, but Nikki grabbed his arm and stopped him.
"Come on. Maybe we can help." Nikki said. "You are Koji's brother and Koji is my teammate. So that means I can help you if I wanted." Nikki did seem like a nice enough girl and he thought it couldn't do any harm. The two of them took a seat on a bench for them to talk.
"It's just that lately I've been feeling useless." Koichi said.
"What do you mean by that?" Nikki asked.
"Koji is out their battling for the greater good. Meanwhile, I'm sitting by on the sidelines and unable to do anything." Koichi said. "I don't even have a bakugan to battle with. I just wish there was something I could do."
"That doesn't mean you should just feel depressed." Nikki said.
"Nikki is right Koichi." Cursedra said. "There must be some way for you to help us out if you really want to."
"If you know how, I'm all ears." Koichi said. However, their talk was cut short when they saw a card was tossed between them and stabbed into the ground. "Who threw that?" Both of them looked ahead and saw Trev with Alice.
"Look what the cat dragged in." Nikki said.
"Sorry to interrupt your little date, but we've got business to get to." Trev said. "You're part of the Battle Brawlers, girl. Make it easy on yourself and just hand over Leonidas or else this is going to get ugly."
"Sorry, but I like a challenge." Nikki said as she stood up to face them and so did Koichi.
"If you're looking for a fight, you got one. This means we also have the chance to save that girl and Hydranoid." Cursedra said. "Remember that the power level difference has to be over 500."
"Yeah, I think I get it." Nikki said.
"So you want a fight? You got one." Trev said. "Cerus, are you ready to take them down?"
"Never more." Cerus said.
"Gate Card Set!" Trev said as he tossed a card down. "Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Go, Darkus Cerus!" Cerus rose on the field with him ready to start the battle. "Alice, get in this."
"Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Darkus Alpha Hydranoid!" Alice said with Hydranoid coming out.
"What is this? Double triple headers?" Cursedra said.
"Let's lower the numbers. Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Let them have it, Darkus Cursedra!" Nikki said as Cursedra flew on the field. "Let's get this darkus party started. Ability Activate, Curse Drive!" Cursedra started spinning like a drill and drilled against Hydranoid. His power dropped to 500 while Cursedra's rose to 1100.
"Ability Activate, Indigo Nightmare!" Alice said. Hydranoid shot out streams of darkness and blasted Cursedra at pointblank range. Hydranoid's power was able to rise to 800, but Cursedra was able to fly away.
"Where do you think you're going?" Cerus said.
"Ability Activate, Shadow Moans!" Trev said. All three of Cerus' heads roared and unleashed black soundwaves. Cursedra got caught in those sound waves with her power dropping to 700. "Ability Activate, Doom Triangle!" All three of them shot out a dark blast that revolved around each other and blasted Cursedra again with her power dropping to 400.
"Ability Activate, Death Trident!" Alice said as Hydranoid was preparing to fire as Cursedra's power dropped to 100.
"Ability Activate, Barrier Hex!" Nikki said. Cursedra formed her barrier as Hydranoid attacked. His power dropped to 400 as his attacked was blocked. "Ability Activate, Cursed Gale!" Cursedra shot out a blast of wind and took Hydranoid down as his power dropped to nothing.
"Alice's life gage 80%"
"It's hard to believe that girl use to be Masquerade. She isn't doing so well." Cerus said.
"You think that will save you? Gate Card Open! Forcing Opening!" Trev said. "Forcing Opening will now double the difference in our power levels." Cerus was surrounded by energy and his power rose to 1700.
"This isn't good." Koichi said.
"I've got this. Ability Activate, Blight Seeker!" Nikki said. Cursedra shot out lasers from her eyes and destroyed the card with Cerus' power dropping back to its base level and Cursedra's rose to 300. "Ability Activate, Ominous Mangalore!" Cursedra shot out electricity and Cerus got zapped. His power dropped to 500 while hers rose to 700 and was beaten.
"Trev's life gage 60%"
"Impressive! You were able to take the both of them down!" Koichi said. 'However, she barely pulled it off. Defeating these two won't be easy. Nikki might need help, but I can't do anything.' Koichi was starting to look at the dark side of this situation, but that was when an interdimensional portal opened up above them. A ray of light dived down from it and landed next to Nikki.
"What's going on?" Nikki said.
"So this is what Mira was talking about." All of them began to see a person that came from the light and stood a man with a mask.
"Who are you?" Koichi asked.
"You already know my little sister, Mira. I go by Keith, but you may call me Spectra Phantom!"
"Spectra Phantom!?" Trev said. "I know who you are. You were once enemies with the Brawlers, but became friends. You were one of Dan Kuso's greatest rivals."
"So you've done your research." Spectra said. "Sorry I arrived later than Mira, but she was on the other Earth while I was on Vestal."
"So your Mira's brother and you came to help. Not that I need it, but it is appreciated." Nikki said.
"Is that so? Well, we can talk about all of this after the battle. Helios, are you ready?" Spectra asked.
"Always." Helios said.
"Gate Card Set!" Spectra said as he set the field. "Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Rise, Darkus Infinity Helios!" Helios came on the field. When he showed up, all of them were amazed with his features.
"Unreal!" Cursedra said.
"He looks like some sort of cyborg." Koichi said. They took a look at his power level of 1100.
"How could he have a power level that high?" Trev said.
"Forget it. Let's get back in the battle." Cerus said. Trev and the girls grabbed their partners.
"Bakugan Brawl!" All three of them said as their three darkus bakugan came on the field.
"These two don't seem impressive." Helios said.
"We'll see about that." Spectra said.
"Ability Activate, Lash and Blast Extreme!" Alice said. Hydranoid shot three energy shots into the air. Then, they multiplied and came down upon the both of them. Cursedra's power level is now at 500 and Helios dropped down to 700.
"Is that all you've got? That didn't even tickle." Helios said.
"A tough guy. Let's see how tough you are after this." Trev said. "Ability Activate, Triple Nightmare!" Cerus fired off three energy lasers and blasted Helios with his power going up to 1400. "Don't ease up. Ability Activate, Doom Triangle!" Cerus shot off three energy shots and Helios got blasted again with his power dropping to 400. "Ability Activate, Central Phantom!" The center head fired off a dark blast and hit Helios once more with his power dropping to 100 and Cerus' power rising to 1700.
"You're not so tough." Cerus said, but Spectra didn't look the least bit worried.
"Ability Activate, FARBAS Infinity!" Spectra said.
"Total damage dealt by both opponents: forty-seven percent. Repairing." The computer said as all the damage Helios took was repaired. "Defenses increased by one hundred-twenty percent."
"No way!" Nikki said as they were all amazed by what Helios just did.
"We barely did half damage and he's all healed up!?" Trev said as he found that unbelievable. "What kind of monster are you?"
"I'm afraid it gets worse. FARBAS Infinity increases his power level to match yours." Spectra said as Helios' power went up to 1700. "Our turn. Ability Activate, Deep Fire-Block A!" The panel on his back fired energy blasts that rained down on Hydranoid and Cerus with their power levels dropping to 200 and 1200.
"His power is unreal." Cerus said.
"Cursedra, we can't let them out do us." Nikki said. "Ability Activate, Curse Drive!" Cursedra started moving and spun against Cerus with his power dropping to 1000 and hers rising to 700.
"This isn't looking good. Cerus, it's time." Trev said. "Go for Cursedra since she has a lower power level."
"Right!" Cerus said as he shot out three lasers and blasted Cursedra and didn't ease up on her until she went back into ball form.
"Cursedra!" Nikki said as she grabbed her.
"Nikki, lookout!" Koichi called out. Nikki looked and saw one of Cerus' heads was charging up another blast and it was aiming for her. Nikki tried to run for it, but the blast was shot. It caused an explosion that Nikki got caught in and sent flying.
"Nikki!" Koichi and Cursedra shouted as she landed down and took a hard hit. Koichi ran straight to her.
"Sorry about that, but a bakugan can't battle without a brawler." Trev said.
"That was a disgraceful thing to do. No battler would dare do such a thing." Spectra said.
"We're not doing this for honor or grace. This is war and all is fair." Trev said.
"Helios, bring him down!" Spectra ordered and Helios continued to battle. Koichi tried to help her, but Nikki seemed hurt real badly.
"Nikki, tell me you're alright." Koichi said.
"I could, but I'm not. It hurts to move." Nikki said.
"They'll pay for this." Cursedra said.
"Koichi, looks like you're getting your wish." Nikki said. Koichi didn't understand until he saw her fight through the pain to move her arm and give Cursedra to him. "Take Cursedra and finish this."
"Nikki!" Cursedra said as she couldn't believe she would hand her over.
"Are you sure?" Koichi said.
"Do it for me." Nikki said. Koichi could see how painful this was for her, but she's entrusting him with her partner. He wasn't going to let her down as he took Cursedra as his own.
"Bakugan Brawl!" Koichi said as he tossed Cursedra back in the battle.
"Came back for more?" Cerus said.
"You hurt Nikki. I'll make you pay for that!" Cursedra said.
"Spectra, Alice and Hydranoid are being controlled. We need to win Hydranoid to break it." Koichi said.
"No problem. Ability Activate, Destroy Quasar!" Spectra said. Helios unleashed a black flame from his mouth as his power went up to 2200. Hydranoid got blasted hard and Alice was blown back from the attack with Hydranoid going to Spectra.
"Alice's life gage 0."
"No way!" Trev said.
"You're turn." Koichi said. "Ability Activate, Cursed of Dark!" Cursedra was building up power for her finishing move as her power went up to 1400.
"Cerus! Here I come!" Cursedra shouted as she fired the beam. Cerus took the blast and returned to sphere form.
"Trev's life gage 0."
"No. I can't believe we lost." Trev said. "At least I know that we have one Brawler down." He grabbed Cerus and made a run for it. Spectra went over to Alice as she was getting up with Spectra holding out Hydranoid.
"Alice, are you alright?" Hydranoid asked.
"Hydranoid? What happened? Alice said.
"I don't know." Hydranoid said.
"You don't need to worry. You're safe for now." Spectra said.
"Nikki!" Koichi called out. The two of them ran over to Koichi as they all saw Nikki was in bad shape. "Quick, call for help. Nikki needs a hospital!" Has the war caught it's first casualty?
(Davis) I can't believe those Dictators hurt Nikki. They've got a lot of nerve doing what they did. Hold on. Is that Dan? He managed to escape from those guys? Wait again. Where is Drago? What the heck is going on around here?
