Chapter 2 Time to Brawl!
Nine Years Later
"Naruto, sweetie please wake up!"
We come to a bedroom where someone was sleeping until he heard the voice call out to him.
"Uugh." The person groaned sitting up showing a 15 year old Naruto as he yawned and stretched. He stood up removing the blankets showing his toned and semi muscular body for someone of his age in orange pajama pants. "Another day." Naruto yawned again before grabbing his clothes and got dressed.
His clothes consisted of a tight burnt orange long sleeved with a red sleeveless hooded vest over it with blue pockets, brown fingerless gloves, black pants, and grey boots.
Naruto took a deep breath before sighing in content.
It's been nine years since he left from Konoha into another dimension called Earth where he meet and was adopted by Miyoko Kuso making him Naruto Kuso. And the two were like any other mother and son, though they're bond was incredibly strong, neither wouldn't have it any other way.
They did all kinds of things, play in the park, go to fairs, movies, special events, rodeo's, anything they could find fun.
And each one made Naruto feel like he was having a blast.
However the sound of ruffling made brought Naruto out of his thought making him turn around to see something ruffling through his blankets. He watched as something rolled out of the blankets and onto the floor that took the shape of a red ball. Suddenly that red ball came to life as it opened up to reveal some sort of toy creature. The creature took the form of a red lizard, with red coloring and golden outline all around it, it's wings on each side of it's head and a horn sprouting out. Naruto smiled as he walked over to it, picking up the thing and placed it in his palm.
"Hey Leonidas, I know you want to go out and fight but how about until I'm ready, okay?" Naruto asked, the weird toy stared at Naruto before moving it's body like it was shaking its head yes.
"Damn impatient Bakugan." Naruto chuckled out loud of the name of the toy like creature.
Bakugan, toy like creatures that appeared from the sky three months ago from some unknown portal. Thank god nothing bad happened other then the cards and Bakugan. However everyone learned that the cards help summon the Bakugan and release their true forms as giant fricken monsters. Like Pokemon but on crack. It also turned out these Bakugan had several elements or attributes as they were called. The first being Pyrus which represented Fire, Aquos which was Water, Subterra which was Earth, Ventus was Air/Wind, Haos represented Light, and Darkus was darkness. Possibly every kid in the world used these to battle for fun and by god was it amazing. Naruto mainly used Pyrus but he all sorts of Bakugan that came in different sets.
"Let's go see what Mom made for breakfast." He said as he placed Leonidas, his main Bakugan, onto his shoulder. He walked down the stairs and entering the living room. He looked into the room to see his adoptive mother doing yoga positions like the ones on the tv.
"Naruto sweetie, I made some waffles for you." Miyoko Kuso said from her position on the floor as she stretched her limbs.
"Thanks Mom." Naruto said as he sat down at the kitchen table and started digging in. Leonidas rolled off Naruto's shoulder and towards the butter, it slammed it's face into the butter.
"Leonidas!" Naruto groaned as the Bakugan made a mess with it's antics. He grumbled but continued to eat the amazing breakfast his mother made while his Bakugan attempted to try and eat.
"So Mom, any plans for today?" Naruto asked.
"Other than meeting with a few friends, nothing really honey." Miyoko responded.
"What time will you be back?"
"Around before the afternoon."
"Alright. When I get back do you want me to make dinner?"
"Thank you, honey. That's so sweet." Miyoko smiled.
"It's no trouble Mom." Naruto grinned.
After finishing up his breakfast Naruto grabbed Leonidas and headed towards his room and reached into his computer drawers until he found all his sets of other Bakugan. He possibly carried all sets but he only need two others right now.
"Okay we will take Pyrus Hynoid and Tuskor for today's battle." Naruto said grabbing his Bakugan and placing them all in his pocket and got his red BakuPod before putting it on his right wrist then he ran back downstairs to the door.
"I'll see you later, Mom!" Naruto called out.
"Ok! Be careful!" Miyoko yelled.
"Gotcha!" Naruto said before closing the door and leaping into the air pulling out detachable roller blades(Like the ones Lan Hikari uses in Megaman NT Warriors and EXE) and slid them on his boots before skating away from his home to reach his destination.
Wardington Park
When Naruto got to the park he skidded to a stop near someone.
"I'm here." Naruto smiled.
"And here I thought you chickened out." A peached skinned boy having short brown hair that had a white cap on backwards with brown eyes and buck teeth wearing a green shirt with a black long sleeved shirt under it, black-blue shorts, and blue and white shoes mocked to Naruto.
"You wish Akira, and who's this?" Naruto asked noticing someone sitting beside Akira on a bench. He was tan skinned and large teen near his age having little spiked up brown hair with brown eyes wearing a white sleeved shirt that barely fit him, around it was a brown vest, black fingerless gloves as his left wrist had a orange BakuPod, brown pants, and brown shoes.
"The one your fighting isn't me but my brother." Akira grinned as the older boy stood up as he turned to Naruto.
"Really?" Naruto said as the older boy smirked.
"My little bro here says you think you're pretty good. I guess it's time to find out how good you really are." The boy said cracking his knuckles.
"I'm decent enough, buddy." Naruto smirked as he prepared for a battle. "So who are you anyway?"
"Name's Shuji, and I'm the master of... Subterra space." Shuji announced.
"Subterra huh? Interesting." Naruto said.
"Ready?" Shuji grinned.
"Let's go." Naruto smiled.
The wind flow against them, the birds flapping their wings, and finally the fountain nearby turned itself on. Naruto and Shuji pulled out black cards before yelling out the words.
"Bakugan! Field open!" Both Shuji and Naruto declared as their cards glowed brown and red. Suddenly a symbol appeared on the ground around them, while everything around them started slowing down, as if time stopped completely before Naruto, Shuji, and Akira were enveloped in a blinding light. One moment later they all appeared in a place where time and space was different. None of them were strangers to it as this is where they all went to fight.
"Gate Card set!" Naruto and Shuji exclaimed as they threw their cards onto the ground. Both their cards extended and became much bigger then what they were before.
"Here I come." Shuji said holding up a brown Bakugan ball. He then threw it at the card and shouted, "Bakugan stand! Mantris!" The Bakugan opened then glowed bright brown before taking the from of a giant brown mantis.
Naruto activated his BakuPod. The BakuPod was used to determine a Bakugan's power, keep tallies on scores and who will win.
"Welcome Naruto." It stated in a female voice. "Opponent Subterra Mantris, Power Level Two Seven Zero G."
"Hmm." Naruto hummed in deep thought at the battle analysis his pod gave him.
But he wasn't worried.
Naruto smiled as he reached into his pocket, on his shoulder Leonidas glowed red as it was ready for battle as Naruto picked one of his Bakugan. He pulled it out before finally tossing the Bakugan in the air. He caught it once more before throwing it towards his card.
"Bakugan stand! Tuskor!" The Bakugan opened then glowed red before taking the form of a massive mammoth over shadowing Mantris and Shuji.
"Pyrus Tuskor, Power Level Three One Zero." Naruto's BakuPod states.
"Bakugan brawl!" Naruto and Shuji yelled out as their Bakugan started fighting. Mantris swung it's claws at Tuskor, however all it did was cause a sparks to fly from the leg it tried to pierce. Tuskor wasn't even effected by it as it used it's tusk to grab hold of Mantris, hoisting it into the air. Naruto smiled since he now knew this was gonna be a lot easier then he thought.
"Hehe." Naruto eyes narrowed at Shuji who chuckled, realizing he has something up his sleeve.
"I don't like this." Naruto frowned.
"Gate Card open up now!" Shuji commanded. Naruto realized his mistake as soon as the card that both Bakugan were on started glowing like a rainbow. Suddenly the landscape turned to a Sahara like desert, as Naruto watch his Bakugan fight. However due to it's enormous size Tuskor sank into the sand letting go of the Mantris. Naruto groaned as he looked at his Bakupod seeing what results have changed.
"Knew it."
"Power Level Increased to Four Two Zero." It stated as it boosted Mantris level.
"Crap." Naruto groaned as the Mantris disappeared into the sand. Tuskor tried to look around since the only thing that could move was it's head, trying to find the enemy. Suddenly the Mantris shot out of the sand above Tuskor, it slashed across Tuskor's face with it's claws. Tuskor roared in pain with the amount of damage it took, however it didn't last long since that was all it could take before glowing red. It reverted back to it's ball like state before flying towards Naruto's hand, with him teen catching it with a smile.
"It's okay Tuskor, you did good out there." Naruto reassured his Bakugan before placing it back in his pocket. He watched as Mantris reverted back to it's ball like state and back into Shinji's hand. The card that was once Shinji's disappeared, gaining him over four hundred points in winning the round.
"Hahaha! Oh man that was so easy. You fell faster than a deck of cards in a tornado." Shuji taunted making Naruto roll his eyes as he pulled out his next Bakugan.
"Keep talking, see where that mouth gets you." Naruto muttered as he waited for Shuji to throw his next Bakugan out. He did and out came a giant crab like creature with blue bug like eyes as it stared down at Naruto.
"Terrowclaw!" Shuji grinned.
Naruto smiled before throwing out his next Bakugan, it taking the form of some bipedal hyena creature.
"Let's go Hynoid!" Naruto said.
Shuji smiled as he prepared to activate his trap card, however he was to slow as Naruto went first.
"Gate Card open!" He yelled. Upon his voice the card glowed bright red, from the card came several flames blinding Shuji and possibly his Bakugan. Hynoid took this chance to grab hold of the other Bakugan's claws, locking it with its strong grip. He heaved it into the air before throwing it into the air above him, throwing his claw back. Terrowclaw watched in horror as Hynoid swung it's claw forward, launching firey slashes to it's chest.
KABOOM!
A shockwave was created from Hynoid's firey attack before Terrowclaw was sent flying. However the damage it took was to much and forced Terrowclaw to revert back to it's ball form and at Shuji's feet. Shuji was in shock by how easily his Bakugan was defeated, watching as the Hynoid reverted back into it's ball and into Naruto's hand.
Naruto smirked as he tossed Hynoid in his hand, Leonidas was shaking around his shoulder almost like it was dancing in victory.
"All tied up now." Naruto declared, causing Shuji to growl in anger. He hated how this guy humiliated him in front of his little brother.
"Not for long. Gate Card set!" Shuji said as he threw the card out, followed by his Bakugan. Naruto smiled as he saw it was a Subterra Saurus, a huamoid styracosaurus, knowing he will use muscle against him. So why not use speed against muscle and pulled out Hynoid again.
"Let's go!" Naruto yelled as he threw Hynoid back out there.
"Bakugan brawl!" Both battlers yelled out, their Bakugan dualed to see who would push who. While Saurus was throwing punches left and right Hynoid was too fast for it, and while knowing Hynoid can keep this up, luckily, Naruto had a trick up his sleeve once more and he was ready to use it.
The Saurus roared as it tried to slash it's horn at Hynoid, with it hitting it's shoulder making Hynoid growled in pain but other then that it refused to go down to Saurus. Naruto smiled as he pulled out an ability card: A card that gives a Bakugan a certain ability that will help them in a fight. The cards front had some sort of spikes connected like it was a gate.
"Ability Card activate: Wild Flame Fury!" Naruto threw the card onto the ground. From the card flames shot out and flew towards Hynoid covering it in a red flame aura, and Hynoid charged forward started slashing away with a flurry of slashes. A final slash sent the Saurus flying into the air towards Shuji whose eyes widen as his Bakugan slowly descended towards him. He covered his eyes in fear however he realized he just embarrassed himself as his Saurus reverted back into it's ball state. Hynoid reverted back into it's ball and landed into Naruto's hand, as he was smiling at Shuji.
"No this can't be happening." Shuji said in shock.
"Hate to disappoint but you are only down to your Subterra Mantris. Now I am willing to let this all go and I won't have to humiliate you in front of your little brother. Now simply say I won and we can call quits." Naruto offered. While he was one with beating opponents, he honestly thought this guy deserved enough.
"I don't quit! Gate Card set!" Shuji yelled throwing his card down.
Naruto chuckled as he prepared one last battle against the guy.
"Determination, I like that in a challenge." Naruto said, he then felt a tug on his vest. Looking over his shoulder he saw Leonidas jumping up and down on his shoulder.
"Alright little guy, let's go." Leonidas jumped into Naruto's hand forming back into a ball. He tossed Leonidas towards the card, transforming as Leonidas took it's true form. It took the form of a dragon like creature standing on two legs, he has three horns, two over his ears and one in the middle of his muzzle. He has three toes on each foot. He has three fingers on each hand. His tail is long and ends in an arrow. He also has three stripes on his shins. Leonidas waited as Mantris appeared before flying above it so it could gain some distance.
"Gate card open!" Shuji yelled, the card once more activated as it turned the area into a desert.
"Kick his butt, bro!" Akira yelled.
"Now to play my ability card." Shuji said as he pulled out his card. "Slice Cutter!" He threw the card into the air towards Mantris, the card morphing into it's chest. The Mantris claws glowed bright brown before forming an X, before it launched the energy into an X like formation as it flew towards Leonidas. Naruto smiled as he pulled out another card.
"Man I am impressed however if you think you're the only one with a trump card you are dead wrong." Naruto said as he threw the card towards the battle.
"Ability Card activate: Frame Fire!" The card burst into flames as Leonidas crossed it's arms. The flames flowed around Leonidas leaving a trail of flames that surrounded Leonidas until he was in a cocoon of fire. The energy attack that would have damaged Leonidas shattered upon contact, shocking Shuji. Leonidas roared as he broke out of the cocoon, the flames formed around the dragons right fist as it looked down at Mantris. Thrusting it's fist out Leonidas shot a giant fireball that flew towards Mantris, which all it could do was stand there in shock. The Mantris roared in pain as the fireball consumed it before exploding, making it revert back to it's ball state. Leonidas let out something close to a laugh as it reverted back to it's ball like state and into Naruto's hand.
"Game set and match, Winner: Naruto." The card disappeared and went into Naruto's score which gave him one thousand.
"I told you, ya should have back down when you had the chance." Naruto stated as the dimension around them disappeared taking them back to the real world. Shuji landed on his knees in defeat while his brother berated him. Naruto smiled while Leonidas let out a victory dance.
"It was a good battle, and I even commend you for fighting for your little brother. But next time let's resolve things peacefully, ok?" Naruto said sticking his hand out as a sign of good sportsmanship.
"Never!" Shuji wailed as he and Akira ran off.
"Oh well. Can't say I didn't try to be nice." Naruto shrugged his shoulders before turning around and took off deciding to look around town and enjoy the scenery like always.
