Chapter 2
"Round 2. Start."
A robotic voice said.
A virtual Neo Dragonoid started to materialize inside a simulator.
The virtual Neo Dragonoid used "Burning Dragon." Reaper defended himself with "Night Shield," which turned his wings into armor. Reaper attacked the Dragonoid with his scythe, which angered him. This time he used a double ability "Burst shield" plus "Burning Dragon." To defend himself, Reaper used "Shadow Dance," which transformed his body into a big mass of shadow, making his opponent's attack pass through him. The virtual Dragonoid wasn't happy and fired at him. This time Reaper decided to be more offensive and used his scythe to stop the blast and attack at the same time. The Dragonoid dematerialized, and Reaper won.
"Good job, Reaper."
Blake said.
Reaper rested for a bit.
"That was tiring. You didn't tell me you were using the Data for this."
Reaper was panting inside the virtual arena.
"Wasn't it obvious? What's the point of having a virtual arena with no one using it. You should have known me by now."
"Right."
"Anyway, you are getting stronger. You are soon going to be able to win against even Vexos league bakugan, based on my observations."
Blake was looking at Reaper's stats.
"I'm strong, but not that strong."
Reaper tried not to show that this stroked his ego and pretended to downplay it.
"That's why I said soon. Not now. And by the way, you are a terrible actor."
Blake turned off the simulator and left Reaper alone.
Now in her room, she tossed her cloak somewhere and fell on her bed.
Reaper was back in his ball form and wanted to discuss some things with Blake, but the moment he saw she was asleep, he decided not to and instead flew to the cloak, grabbing it with his teeth and tossing it on Blake like a blanket.
The next day, Reaper tried to wake Blake up, but to no avail.
"Come on."
He grew tired of trying and threw himself on her forehead painfully.
"Ouch. What was that for?"
She said, still rubbing her eyes.
"You weren't waking up, and in three hours, it's sunset."
Blake groaned. She hated whenever it was time to wake up.
"You should have let me continue to sleep."
"No way. As much as I like you, I can't let you waste your life sleeping.
Blake forcefully stood up.
"I hate you."
With that, she went to her wardrobe for clothes change.
"I know you like me."
"Shut up."
Reaper chuckled.
After some time, Blake and Reaper were out in the forest. Blake was sitting on a high tree with Reaper circling her.
"Say that again. I'm going to compete in the Alpha Tournament."
Blake nodded.
"Correct."
"Can't wait to beat everyone out there."
"Careful there, Reaper. You don't know who is listening."
"You are becoming paranoid."
Blake glared daggers at him.
"Ok. I'll stop."
A movement was heard.
"Did you hear that?"
Blake asked.
"Definitely."
The sounds were coming from the ground.
From what Blake could see, the person was wearing all black except for a green scarf, and the way he moved reminded her of a ninja.
She grabs Reaper and uses a teleportation card to teleport both of them at their hideout.
"That was a close call."
"Indeed."
