You guys will love the ending to this chapter. It's a real cliffhanger of an ending. I would tell you but what would be the fun in that?
Mechtanium Surge is good so I'm going into that but if u read my profile page you'd know that already. I might just focus on the first arc of it though considering the second arc hasn't impressed me much minus Runo being back with the brawlers. God, I have missed her!
Er...I think around two or three chapters to go now until this is done and dusted at least until the next one if I decide to go through with it considering that I haven't decided on the plot yet as they're all kinda crap at the moment. So like I said previously, it might be longer before I write the next installment.
Also I need OCs so if u want submit any to me and I'll see if I can use them in Mechtanium Surge fic. I need one new member for Team Sellon and Anubias and one of Xenia's new friends who isn't a brawler.
Enjoy the new chapter and review please. If the chapter sucks, it has been a while.
Chapter Twenty-One: Reaching Climax
I'm standing in an empty theatre. Just a single mic stand in front of me. It's strange but how come everything seems to be centred around the feeling of loss and betrayal recently.
I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore?
You lost the love I loved the most
I learned to live, half-alive
And now you want me one more time
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?
It's not what I'm used to. I'm not used to feeling like I've been shattered into a million pieces and trying to piece them together in an attempt to get some closure but nothing will ever be exactly the same anymore.
My eyes open again and I feel weird. I actually feel like I can't remember anything that has happened recently. Talk about amnesia! I shake my head as the room starts to shake around me. I notice Fabia and Aranaunt in the same room as me...did she save me? After all the bad blood between us, it's quite amazing she would do it.
I see Jake is fine as well and judging from the fact that his normal eye colour is back, he's on our side again. Dan's out cold and Kazerina is here. What did she want with us? I don't know what it is but I do have a really strong urge to see Shun again.
"Are you okay, Xenia?" Dan asks.
"Good to go. Let's brawl." I answer.
"Shouldn't you be on a leash, doggy?" Dan says to Lumagrowl.
"How about a game of fetch?" Jake responds.
"Bakugan brawl!"
"Bakugan stand, Haos Phoenix!"
"Bakugan stand, Subterra Coredom!"
"Bakugan stand, Pyrus Helix Dragonoid!"
"You okay, Drago?" Dan asks.
"I'm okay, Dan." Drago answers.
"It seems that Kazerina's hypnosis got the best of me too. How embarrassing." Dragonoid Colossus says from Dan's bakumeter.
Hypnosis? Then it all comes back to me. I was the one that knocked Dan out which is why Kazerina managed to capture him. I guess that defeating the Gundalians will be the way I get redemption.
"You lot will pay for what you did to us!" Coredom says.
"That's putting it likely." Drago replies.
"You know what they say about payback!" I agree.
Lumagrowl and Kazerina retreat to outside Gundalia castle and we chase tail and I see that the other brawlers are already taking part in the action with the other members of the twelve orders. Lumagrowl and Kazerina have just disappeared from sight so where did they go?
"Where did they go?" Fabia asks.
"They got away!" Dan says
"Dan!"
"Jake!"
The others catch up with us. This is one big reunion then. I literally jump into my...I still think, ex-boyfriend's arms.
"Hey, guys!" Dan says.
"Miss us?" Jake replies.
"We didn't even know you were gone." Shun teases.
"Don't tease. Doesn't suit you." I reply.
"Are you alright?" Shun asks me.
"Yeah, I guess. I suppose I feel alright considering I've been hypnotised for Kazerina for a while. So I guess anything that happened when I got back to Neathia wasn't really me doing it." I answer.
Which means that I have some serious explaining to do to Zack. He's gonna be devestated probably but I hope that he understands. It's gonna sound corny but I guess all the hurt and pain practically disappeared with the hypnosis.
"But thanks for saving us." Drago says.
"Fabia deserves the credit." Shun replies.
I suppose so.
"It was a group effort and Jake was already helping when I got there." Fabia says.
"It was Dan's shouting that snapped me out of it." Jake replies.
"Now that all seven of the battle brawlers are back together, we should be unstoppable." Marucho responds.
"How touching! I think I might cry! So what's next, a group hug?" Stoica says sarcastically.
"What are we waiting for?" Airzel agrees.
"I guess we aren't the only ones who have reunited." Shun says.
"Well, we still outnumber them. Six to four." Ren responds.
Wait...
"Where's Baridous?" Dan realises.
"Yes, that is strange. I'd expect Dharak here trying to fight me." Drago says.
"I'm sensing a disturbance. The Scared Orb is agitated." Dragonoid Colossus mentions.
"You were so easy to fool!" Gill says with an evil smile.
"What the heck! Dharak got through the third shield!" Dan shouts seeing the carnage from his bakumeter.
"How is that possible?" Drago questions.
"Don't you remember, Drago? You're the one who gave him the key."
"Aranaunt, without the third shield...our home will be laid to waste." Fabia says in horror.
A strange light glows and Dragonoid Colossus appears ready to take us all back to Neathia and help with the fight.
"We must return to Neathia immediately!" Dragonoid Colossus says.
I feel something...oh, this has to be the worst timing ever!
"You okay?" Shun asks.
"Either I just did something really embarassing or..." I say slowly.
The four members of the twelve orders summon their bakugan ready to fight us but now we're one member down because...
"My water just broke!" I say with alarm.
