Chapter 37
Luna
When I woke up, there was a small vial on the nightstand. Use sparingly.
"Are you okay?" Sireniod asked. I nodded. I walked to my closet and grabbed jeans and a tank top I picked up from Earth. I didn't feel like putting on my usual outfit and earth clothes were so much more comfortable. Next, I dug through a drawer to find something to help with my chapped lips. As I finished, a movement caught my eye. I spun around and came face to face with a floating hat.
"Sirenoid!" I yelped. She laughed.
"I thought you could use a hat. You never wear them."
"Fine." I took the beanie and threw it on my head. Looking in the mirror, I could tell Sirenoid picked the right day for me to wear one. The top of my hair was a mess but I'd slept with a braid, resulting in the rest being curly.
"For a Bakugan, you have a sense of style." I turned to make my bed when a knock on the door startled me. It was Mylene.
"You look nice," she said. I smiled.
"What do you need?" I asked while I finished my bed.
"Were going on a mission to Earth again. But rather than battle, we're going to sit it out. Eventually, we'll catch a signal and we can conquer them all."
"Makes sense," I shrugged. I grabbed a small bag and stashed some cash in it. I held the flap up for Sirenoid, who hopped in.
"Who is going with us?" I asked.
"Shadow and Lync." We walked down the hall to the rec room where Hydron was. He tossed her a bag.
"Disguise. Luna, thank god you have one already because I have absolutely nothing in your size." Mylene disappeared. A minute later she came out in yellow jeans and a purple crop top with a pink heart in the center. She glared at Hydron who snickered. When Shadow emerged, dressed in roughly the same thing, everyone but the two burst out laughing. Mylene sighed and flipped Hydron the bird, making everyone laugh harder.
"Let's go," she grumbled. We followed her to transport and were on earth in minutes.
"What do we do now?" Lync asked.
"Look around," Mylene said. If anyone sees anything, say so. "When noon hits, I'll give you all a meetup place." We nodded. Shadow and Mylene went in one direction, Lync and I went another. We walked around all day with no sign of the brawlers. On the other hand, I found a cool camera. Mylene did eventually contact us. When we got there, she handed us each a plate. On mine was a sandwich and fries. I sat and ate, listening to shadow go crazy.
"Stop," Mylene said. Shadow ignored her. About halfway through my sandwich, our gauntlets picked up a signal.
"I smell a brawler," Shadow licked his lips. We walked out of the café, and Mylene saw him.
"I don't recognize him," Lync said.
"He's a brawler, but not one of the brawlers," I realized.
"Regardless, he knows where he's heading." Mylene pointed out. She held her finger to her lips, and we began to creep after the kid. Eventually, he walked in a huge building.
"Holy crap," Sirenoid said, emerging from my bag.
"Well this was a bust," Shadow said. I rolled my eyes.
"Or maybe not," I pointed to a nameplate. Maruka.
"Isn't that the little guys last name?"
"Indeed it is. Good one Luna," Mylene said. I smiled and snapped a picture. A minute later, It emerged from the camera. I handed it to Mylene.
"Where'd you get a polaroid?" she asked.
"So that's what it's called…I sorta stole it. But we have a picture of the brawlers hideout."
"Fair enough." She pressed a button and we transported back.
