Anyways, enjoy another part!

Maken pow:

- As i was sitting in the combat class, watching Jaune getting saved by intervention of Professor Glynda from being ripped in half by Cardin in one-sided duel, i couldn't feel fine. That feeling wasn't only because i dislike bullying weaker people in such a way, this also showed to me that recrutation system to Beacon was at very best irregular. Because come on, why did such a guy became a leader of a whole team? I mean, i know that he has some good strategies and commanding skills, but being a huntsman - leader or not - is mostly about combat, and being such a bad fighter make me wonder, if i could already face professor Glynda head-on or do so with all students in my year at once.

Later that day, as I was finishing eating another bag of bacon in Dining Hall (Instead of getting meals from local kitchen, i eat my own food just to satisfy myself.), i saw Cardin bully a female student from a second year, who also happen to be a rabbit faunus. And although i'm not a fan of violence in eating space, i didn't thought twice as my fists hit Cardin face multiple times and send him into the floor. After that i left the scene as quickly as i arrived and silently went to my dorm.

Even later that day, i decided to go to hit the town, as I managed to discover that there is an option to earn 100 000 Lien by winning a bakugan battle, as it was an object of hazard as every secret/illegal activity. And i was just about to go on the roof of academy, as I was interrupted during walk in the hallway.

- Hey you! - Talked to me a big guy in academy uniform as he stood in front of me.

- Yes, me. Yhat's the issue? - I replied with a note of annoyance.

- I'm here to thank you for a help you gave my teammate during lunchbreak earlier. - He answer. - I am Yatsuhashi Daichi.

- And i am Maken Pedington.- You are that guy who is a so called "hidden gem" of your year right? - He asked.

- Yes it's me, but i don't have time for a chit-chat man, awesome huntsman skill don't come with talking. - I replied, waving hand on a goodbye and going forward into more quiet place. I also got suspicious of knowing, that my local fame has began to leave me behind the action, but that was a secondary problem at the moment.

(Timeskip of a 35 minutes)

As i enter the well maintenaced building in the center of the Vale, which, was supposingly being a place of playing for money, i saw multiple people (mostly teenagers) talking, moving in and out of brawls or just exchanging Lien as bets were coming in and out of a hands of all people gathered in.

- So, who am i fighing here? - I asked looking around the spacious room.

- I challange you for a 100 000 Lien, Maken. - Confindently answered my calling a skinny blonde girl around Ruby's age with short ponytail, white blouse, dark leggins and trainers.

- May i ask your name? It's rude to fight with unknown opponent. - I asked the girl in front of me.

- Amelie Dien. - She answered as she deployed a dimensions card, making it bright in blue colour.

- And i am Maken Pedington. - I presented myself while activaiting my own card to bright in Red colour.

- Gate card set! - we shouted as we throw our gate cards against each other on the field.- I'm challanged so i go first for once. - I said taking one of my bakugans to my hand and preparing to throw it. - Let's do this young lady, bakugan brawl! Mantris stand! - I said as my bakugan appeared on my gate card.

- Clever one boy, but watch this, bakugan brawl! - Answered Amelie while throwing her Aquos bakugan on her own gate card. - Limulus stand! - She said as a blue trilobite appeared in her gate card.

- Ok then, no more holding back. Bakugan Brawl! - I said, throwing my second bakugan on the field. - Saurus stand! - I shouted as he appeared to face-off with Limulus.

- Limulus at 310g, Saurus at 320g. - Said shortly my scroll.

- Well then, bakugan brawl! - Told Amelie, throwing her second bakugan on a gate card where my Mantris was standing. - Juggernoid stand! - She ended her sntence as her bakugan appeard on my gate card.

- Mantris at 360g, Juggernoid at 290g. - Said my scroll.

- You are going to use a Dive Mirage don't you? - I said with confidence as Amelie face expression turned to unsure. - Gate card open, Isolated Battle! - I shouted as all sides of my gate card began to glow white and created glass-like walls to separate gate card from the battlefield. - Isolated Battle is a gate card that disables use of all ability cards to be use in a battle and blocks all possibilities of interfierence from both allied and enemy sieds. - I showed off my knowledge as both Juggernoid and Limulus were already defeated and under Amelie trainers in Ball forms.

- Gate card set! - Shouted Amelie with sudden burst of anger, while throwing her gate card on the empty field. - Bakugan brawl! Warius stand! - She added when blue ogre-like bakugan rised upon the field.

- No big deal, you ready Griffon? - I asked my buddy.

- I am, let me in! - Replied my bakugan, cleary excited about rolling into action.- Well, then. Bakugan brawl! Griffon stand! - I shouted as my guardian faced head on last obstacle between me and money.

- Gate card open! - Said Amelie, as battlefield filled up with water.

- Warius power raised by 200g to 520g, Griffon at 350g. - Informed me my scroll.

- Weak move kid, ability card activate! - I said while holding my ability card. - Fire Tornado! - I named my attack as column of fire surrounded Griffon and took him above the ground.

- 100g transferred from Warius to Griffon, Griffon at 30g advantage. Said electronic voice while Griffon performer diving attack on Warius, knocking him off the stage into a ball form.

- Oh. - Was all Amelie could say to me as battlefield disapperar and Griffon went back to pocket in my jacket.

- Here, it's yours. - Said the girl, giving me suitcase full of cash.

- Thank you. - I replied as softly as i could before going on the trip back to academy.

Narrator pow:

- Unknown to Maken, he was already observed going in and out of the building. And of course, it was one of the best secret seekers around, Blake Belladonna itself. As she was standing On top of the building on the other side of the road, she saw then Maken going into a side alley, but when she came there to look for him, there was nothing.- You really know how to keep a secret or two. - She said to herself. - But earlier or later i will knew what are you doing there. And when i discover that, i will make sure that you won't scheme outside of Beacon ever again...
