Me: Hey there brawlers, how was your Thanksgiving? Mine was alright, at least no ER visit but just a small cold…I think. Right now no doctor's appointments until the start of December – yay…in someway…
Anyway to those who reviewed: Crazy-chan (ch.1 & ch.7), Haosbattler, pinkpanther6412, KathyxDan, OnyxCipherLeficentEmrysRomanov (ch.6), Guest (ch.7), Kirito-kun (ch.1), renharaku, Nai (ch.1) and Guest (ch.1) – I thank you all!
Haosbattler: Yes, I looked up his moves set but they don't describe how much G-power he gains, how much G-power the opponent loses and stuff like that. I made up a few description on the few abilities he has and created a few new ones along with a fusion ability. Yes, I remember he has no attribute so the new OC abilities are connected to his 'no attribute' status.
The rest of you, I am glad that you are enjoying and loving this fanfic. Well, enjoy reading this new update!
"…The reason why you can hear Dan's thoughts, the reason why you can see him in your dreams…is that Dan has a part of the Perfect Core, inside him," informed Wavern, seriously.
"WHAT?!" shouted Drago. "How – HOW CAN THAT BE?!"
"I…don't have much…time," echoed Wavern. "I…have to return…to Dan…I'm the only one…that is protecting…him from…my brother's dark hold…you must…hurry…"
"Wavern – Wavern!" shouted Drago as the white bakugan disappeared. He looks up at the sky before feeling the intense air. He narrows his eyes, 'If Dan holds a piece of the Perfect core then that would explain…'
Meanwhile after lunch, Marucho and Kai send their bakugan partners out to find any clues about the strange changes. The young blond was looking over at the data his friends and Kai had gathered but so far, nothing made any sense.
'What's causing the strange intense air? Why is the sky turning dark?' thought Marucho, deeply. He sighs, heavily before spotting Preyas and Leo coming back. "Did the two of you find anything?"
Leo shook his head, "Nothing but the air is indeed getting heavy and the smell of the strange dark energy is getting stronger by the minute."
Kai frowned, "Strange…maybe this strange energy is coming from Naga."
"It could," murmured Marucho. "What about you, Preyas? Anything strange in the waters?"
"Sorry pal, nothing out of the ordinary that I could see," replied Preyas, disappointedly as he felt he failed his human partner. "Although…the Aquos bakugan did say that they feel something odd in the waters."
Marucho tapped a bit on his pad before tapping his chin. He stares at the screen, "if we could find these source of dark energy, we could find out what's going on. Not only that but we need to beat Naga and free Dan from his hold."
Kai sighed, "One step at a time…come on, let's head back."
Marucho nodded but just as they were about to walk back to the aircraft, a small pocket knife stop them. Marucho fell onto the ground with a shock expression while Kai was glaring at the small weapon.
"So you're the top Aquos Brawler…you don't look that tough."
Marucho and Kai looked around and spotted a boy who had a shaved head, emerald eyes and had tan skin sitting on a rock. Standing nearby was another teenager who had a short orange mohawk hair that had yellow tips and his eyes were dark indigo and light tan skin.
"My, My, such a heartwarming greeting Eddie," sneered Kai before smirking. "Didn't your mother taught yea better?"
"Shut the hell up Kai! He wasn't talking to you!" snapped the mohawk teen, angrily.
"And I see that you still have not control that temper of yours, Jakul," teased Kai.
Marucho saw that Eddie had strapless blue headset and on his left wrist had two wristbands, one was pure black while the other was white and black strips. He wears a long sleeveless coat with gold trimmings, his collar was blue and his blue tie was attached to it. On the middle was blue that goes down to his waist and has snowy with white star design pants. He had blue boots with white cuffs on the top.
For Jakul, he was wearing a short black vest that had crimson trimmings, had a long crimson shirt with gray and back trimmings. He had crimson gloves with gold trimmings that were cuffed black and had red trimmings. He had a double crimson belt with a gold belt buckle. His pants were black but on his right side had a red and with strap above the knee. He wears crimson sneakers with gold lining and a gear design on them.
Jakul was about to snap at Kai when Eddie stopped him. The shaved teen shook his head before addressing to Marucho. "I came here to…test how strong you really are, oh top Aquos Brawler. Do you accept?"
"Of course I do," replied Marucho, getting up and activating his Bakupad.
Kai placed his hand over Marucho's shoulder. He leans to the young blonde's ear, "Be careful. Eddie may look innocent but he's second best in their group."
Marucho nodded as he and Eddie set their gate cards.
"Let's go Preyas! Ready your fangs Seren!"
-Marucho, Preyas: 500G, 100% vs. Eddie, Seren: 480G, 100%-
"Don't disappoint me, Brawler," said Eddie, calmly and taking out a card. "Ability card activate, Torrential Whip!" Suddenly a bunch of water whip likes got a hold onto Preyas.
Preyas: 500G – 300 = 200G
Seren: 480G
"Ability card activate, Aquos Guardian!" countered Marucho. The ability not only nullifies Seren's ability but boost some of Preyas' G-power.
Preyas: 200G to 500G + 200 = 700G
Seren: 480G
Eddie frowned, "And here I thought was going to get a decent challenge – double ability, Freeze and Toxic Fang!"
The first ability, the Aquos Serpenoid was able to freeze Marucho's gate card and Preyas on the field. Suddenly Marucho's gate card started to glow before getting destroyed. The second ability, Seren sinks her fangs onto Preyas and allowed her venom to poison her opponent.
Preyas: 700G – 200 = 500G
"Preyas is frozen solid! I can't activate any of his abilities!" said Marucho.
"Indeed, which means – ability card activate, Forcing Waves!" ordered Eddie. The third ability was several waves heading towards Preyas and boost Seren's G-power.
Seren: 480G + 250 = 730G
Marucho watched as Preyas returned to his ball form and saw the percentage went down.
Preyas: 75% and Seren: 100%
"Not so tough, are we?" sneered Jakul. He looks over at Kai and smirks, "Better find some stronger teammates rather looking at a playground."
Kai stayed silent before looking over at Marucho. "Don't lose focus."
Marucho nodded before sending Preyas back to brawl. He could see that his partner was a bit tired from the poison but he knows his partner can shake it off. "Preyas, change attribute!"
The Aquos nodded before his color change from blue to brownish. That means Preyas was a Subterra for a short time. Marucho nodded, "Alright double ability, Side Formation and Slumping Rocket!" The first ability prevents Eddie to activate his gate card and boost Preyas' G-power.
Preyas: 500G + 300G = 800G
Seren: 480G
"Slight impressive," murmured Eddie. "Double ability, Polygraph Divide and Waterfall Burst!"
Preyas started to glow which it transfers to Seren and her G-power started to increase.
Seren: 480G + 300 = 780G
Preyas: 800G – 100 = 700G
"I'm not going to let you – ability card activate, Blue Squall!" said Marucho.
Seren: 780G – 200 = 580G
Preyas: 700G
Seren: 80% and Preyas: 75%
"I guess there is some fight in yea, little rant," said Eddie, sending back his partner to brawl. He narrows his eyes, "You just got lucky – ability card activate, Abyss Ruler!"
Seren: 480G + 200 = 680G
Preyas: 500G
"I'm always ready to fight if my best friend needs me! Ability card activate, Wave Shield!" shouted Marucho, cancelling Seren's ability. That's when he changed Preyas' attribute again but this time it was Darkus. "Ability card activate, Whirl Kick!"
Seren: 680G to 480G – 200 = 280G
Preyas: 500G + 200 = 700G
Eddie stood there as his partner took a hit from Preyas kick. The percentage went down as the percentage went down again.
Seren: 50% and Preyas: 75%
Behind him, Jakul was laughing inside. The mohawk teen know what his teammate was doing, he was toying with the little blond pre-teen before crashing his thoughts of winning.
"Alright, I give you enough time to prove yourself but enough playtime," murmured Eddie, taking out a card. ""Double ability, Water Refrain and Torrential Whip!"
Marucho watched as Preyas was surrounded by a dark glow then was the multiple of water like whips grabbed hold onto his partner again, lowering his G-power. What worried him was that the first ability prevents him to use any abilities except for specials or fusion cards.
Preyas: 500G – 300 = 200G
Seren: 480G
'Well it's a good thing that Preyas gain this ability from training,' thought Marucho, taking out the new ability card. "Fusion ability, Mist Aquos!"
"What! When did you get a fusion card?!" said Eddie, losing a bit of his calmness. He watches as his partner G-power was transferred to his opponents.
Seren: 480G – 400 = 80G
Preyas: 200G +400 = 600G
"Nothing is going to stop me from saving my best friend, got it!" snapped Marucho.
Eddie watched as Preyas was coming closer to his weaken bakugan. He smirks, "I can see that…but like I said, playtime is over – Double ability, Polygraph Divide and fusion ability, Giant Waves!"
Once again, Seren's G-power was boost the same as Preyas but gain some more when large waves started to form.
Seren: 80G + 400 = 480G + 600 = 1080G
Preyas: 600G – 400 = 200G
Kai widened his eyes as he watches the waves smash Preyas to some mountain side while Marucho was soaked to the bone. He looked over at the Bakupad as saw the percentage went down, completely.
-Preyas: 0% and Seren: 50%-
"Well, that was…disappointing," said Eddie before shrugging. "But then again, there were a few times you had me interested…but not enough." He narrows his eyes, "If you plan on beating us and our leader, then you better get stronger or you'll get destroyed. Got it? Let's go Jakul; we've got to report back to quarters."
Jakul nodded and they used his partner to travel back to base.
Kai watched as a Pyrus Nova Lion appeared in front of them before taking Jakul and Eddie with him. He tries to watch them where they went but were covered from an intense fog. He sighs, "Don't let this lose harm you Marucho. Use this lose to focus on what you are trying to fight for, got it?"
Marucho looked down for a moment before recalling the times that Dan helped him when he lost Preyas for the first time. Not only that but when Dan lose against Masquerade, he went after Drago to the Doom Dimension. He nods, "You're right! Let's go back to the aircraft and plan out on how to beat those teenagers."
Kai nodded and had Leo return them back to the others.
-Break Line-
Aw, looks like Marucho lost his first match against Eddie but that is not going to stop him. And how did Dan have a fragment of the Perfect Core inside him? Does Naga knows or not?
Find out in the next update! Ciao!
