Chapter 4: Return of a Friend
Hey everyone! It's me sakuraphoenix, and I'm back with a brand new chapter! I know I've been having update issues, but thankfully I'm on Spring Break, so I should be able to update some of my things a lot quicker now. Anyhow, I shouldn't be holding you up now, so let's move onto the disclaimer!

Enjoy!
In my dream, I saw this vision of this guy with blond hair in a mask with Gus, and Dan was brawling him. I then saw the guy in the mask take out Dan while draining his life gauge. That's when I woke up. I was about to go back to sleep, but then I heard a voice.
"Drago!" exclaimed Dan
Dawn woke up from the sound of Dan's voice and she usually sleeps through everything. Maybe she's trying to still get adjusted from the change from being a Dark Signer to a regular person again. I don't know, I'm not an expert in this kind of field. Anyhow, Dawn and I, clad in our nightgowns that Mira let us borrow, ran to Dan's room. We got there the same time Baron did.
"What's going on? Who's attacking? Did you just wake up from having a nightmare?" asked Baron
"Yeah, I guess I was. Uh, sorry to wake you." Said Dan
"I'll say, you woke up Dawn, and she sleeps through everything!" I exclaimed
"Except my alarm clock." Said Dawn
"It just gives you a jolt in the morning. I don't call that an alarm clock, I call that an electric shocker." I said
"Watch it!" exclaimed Dawn
"Well was some nightmare you had. Every single Vestal on the planet must've heard you." Said Marucho
"You'd have bad dreams too if you lost a Bakugan Brawl as badly as Master Dan did." Said Baron
"Nice one." Marucho said sarcastically
"You know what Marucho, Sakura, Dawn, Baron's right. Drago! Time to start training!" exclaimed Dan
"In the middle of the night?" asked Marucho
"Drago! Drago? Hey guys, you seen Drago?" asked Dan
"Not me." I said
"Just woke up." Said Dawn
"No." Marucho and Baron said in unison
We all went back to our rooms and got dressed before we went looking for Drago. We finally found him looking up at the night sky.
"Drago! There you are. Why are you all alone out here?" asked Dan
"Just thinking." Said Drago
"Me too! Now let's get to work!" Dan exclaimed while lifting his gauntlet
We all activated our Gauntlets, and for the first time I got to see what Sunrise Dragonoid looked like outside of her ball form. She was basically an orange dragon with two slim, but powerful looking wings. She also stood on two legs, like Twilight, Lunar, and Leonidas, but her arms weren't attached to her wings like most dragons. Nemus took the first attack.
"Nice move Drago! Ability Activate!" exclaimed Dan
He's putting his entire heart and soul into brawling, like me when I'm Turbo Dueling. He really wants to get his game together.
The next morning…
Everyone was making plans for our next course of action.
"If we follow this valley, we should get close to the city undetected." Said Ace
"I can have use there by sundown guys. Petal to the metal." Baron said before he took a bite out of his sandwich
"So does this mean we're actually gonna go into enemy territory now?" asked Marucho
"It's about time we started destroying those Vestal Dimension Controllers! Hahahaha! Oh man! The Vexos are gonna freak out!" exclaimed Dan
"Dan! Stay focused." Said Drago
"Hold on. I have… something else to discuss." Said Mira
"Is something wrong?" asked Drago
"Nothing. I just have to go." Said Dan
"Too much information." Said Drago
"Yeah, totally TMI." I said
"When you gotta go, you gotta go!" Dan exclaimed while running out of the room
"Hey guys, I'll be right back. I need to grab something from my room." I said
I went up to my room, and got the Gauntlet Mira let me customize, that way, we don't get mine, Baron's, or Dawn's mixed up. My gauntlet was basically the same design as all the other gauntlets in New Vestroia, but the difference was that even though it looked like a Haos Gauntlet on the top, on the sides it was purple, like a Darkus gauntlet. I was walking out of my room when I saw Gus!
"Greetings Dan Kuso." Said Gus
Huh? Why would this thing mistake me for Dan? I then charged at him, but phased right through him. It was a hologram!
"I warned you. Today I will take your Drago away." Said Gus' hologram
"Dream on buddy!" I exclaimed
"I understand if you refuse my challenge. After losing to me once, you're probably afraid. However, if you do have the guts to take me on again human, my little spy will lead you right to me." Said Gus' hologram before it disappeared
"Come here bug breath! Try going anywhere and I'll tear your wings off!" I exclaimed
Apparently this thing was smart enough to go into my pocket and shiver. It had feelings. Ha! I should scare machines more often. Great stress reliever. I then snuck back into the room and grabbed Twilight.
"Twilight." I whispered
"Sakura?" wondered Twilight
"Let's blow this taco stand." I said
"We're going?-! Where?" asked Twilight
"Gus sent a message to Dan, but I intercepted it. Now we're going to go meet him." I said
"Sounds like a trap." Said Twilight
"Traps I can handle. Just ask Leo and Lunar. And besides, this could be another chance to free Vulcan from the Vexos." I said
"I'm in." said Twilight
"Come on, we gotta meet them, but we can't tell the others. We'll be back before they realize we're gone." I said
I then snuck out the room, and then ran for the entrance.
"Okay bug face, unless you want your wings gone, take me to Gus." I said as I took the device out of my pocket
It then flew off, and I ran after it to see where it was going. Thankfully, it did lead me to Gus. When I showed up, he sure was surprised to see me.
"I thought I instructed Dan Kuso to appear, not some school girl." Said Gus
"Well Dan is a little busy right now, so I came in his place. I really hope you've been practicing your cleaning skills, because this 'school girl' is gonna wipe the floor with you." I said
"Ha! Your overconfidence will be your downfall." Said Gus
"Gauntlet Power Strike!" Gus and I exclaimed in unison
"Gate Card, Set! Crush them Vulcan. Bakugan, Brawl!" exclaimed Gus
"Show him the power of both light and darkness Twilight! Bakugan, Brawl!" I exclaimed
"Bakugan, Stand!" exclaimed Gus
"Bakugan, Stand!" I exclaimed

Haos Twilight Dragonoid G-Power 500
"Even if your Bakugan is as strong as mine, it doesn't matter. Gate Card, Open! Subterra Reactor!" exclaimed Gus
Subterra Primo Vulcan G-Power 600
"You were fools to face us." said Gus
"Yeah, yeah, the last person who said that was a crazy mad scientist who almost turned me into one of her guinea pigs, and guess what, I won." I said
"You may have just been lucky, but I will be different." Said Gus
'Ability Card Set'
"Ability Activate! Titan Knuckle!" exclaimed Gus
Subterra Primo Vulcan G-Power 800

"That all ya got?-!" I exclaimed
'Ability Card Set'

Our Bakugan went back into their ball forms after that assault.
Gus Power Level 80 percent
"You okay?" I asked
"Yeah, but I've felt better. Then again, Mylene and Shadow's Bakugan didn't have launching fists." Said Twilight
"That's true." I said
"At least we put a dent into Gus' life gauge." Said Twilight
"Yeah. Now we're just getting started!" I exclaimed
Commercial Break: Sakura: Don't move from your seats, we'll be right back!
Dawn: We're back with the Bakugan Battle Brawlers!
"Now it's my turn to start the action! Gate Card, Set! Bakugan, Brawl! Bakugan, Stand!" I exclaimed
"Bakugan, Brawl! Bakugan, Stand!" exclaimed Gus
Haos Twilight Dragonoid G-Power 500
Subterra Primo Vulcan G-Power 500
"Gate Card, Open! Haos Reactor!" I exclaimed
Haos Twilight Dragonoid G-Power 600
"I'm glad Mira gave this to me this morning!" I exclaimed
*Flashback*
"Sakura, could I have a word with you?" asked Mira
"Sure. What's up?" I asked
"I wanted you to have this." Said Mira
"A Bakugan Trap?" I wondered
"Yes. It's called Triad Sphinx. I've given Dawn one already. Her Bakugan Trap is Haos Zoack. I have a feeling you'll be needing it soon, so please, take good care of it, and yourself.
*End Flashback*
Thank you Mira.
"Alright, let's get this show on the road! Come Bakugan Trap, Haos Triad Sphinx!" I exclaimed as I threw the trap up in the air
Haos Triad Sphinx G-Power 350
When it came down, it looked like a crossover between Manion and a Griffon. I can worry about looks later.
"Time to take you down for the count." I said
'Ability Card Set'
"Double Ability Activate! Twilight Flash plus Ancient Rays!" I exclaimed
Haos Twilight Dragonoid G-Power 750

"Looks like you bit off more than you could chew!" exclaimed Twilight
Gus Power Lever 60 percent
"Ha! My life meter is still at 100 percent! And you thought that this 'school girl' couldn't beat you, huh?" I asked
"I guess I underestimated you. But it's alright; I haven't even begun to brawl! I am through playing around with you!" exclaimed Gus
Someone then tapped Gus on the shoulder, and it was the guy in the mask from my dreams!
"I'll handle this Gus." Said the man
"This is my battle!" exclaimed Gus
"Who the hell are you?" I asked
"I am Spectra Phantom, leader of the Vexos." Said Spectra
"He's Spectra?-!" exclaimed Twilight
"I kinda imagined him differently. I didn't think he'd be wearing a mask. But seriously dude, back off! I got a battle to finish here." I said
"Ha-ha, you should learn to be more respectful of your superiors. It is an honor for an amateur such as yourself to lose to the top ranked brawler. Gate Card, set! Bakugan, Brawl! Bakugan, Stand! Now, bring out your Bakugan." Said Spectra
"Nobody tells me what to do, capuche? But you're asking for it buddy-boy!" I exclaimed
"Calm down, he's trying to get on your nerves." Said Twilight
"Oh. Whoops. Keep a calm head." I said to myself
Yeah, keep a calm head Phoenix.
"Bakugan, Brawl! Twilight, Stand!" I exclaimed
Haos Twilight Dragonoid G-Power 500
Pyrus Hyper Dragonoid G-Power 400
"Double Ability Activate! Dual Dragon plus Item Core!" exclaimed Spectra
Pyrus Hyper Dragonoid G-Power 1000
"No freaking way! It split and he managed to double their power and some more!" I exclaimed
Both of those crazy dragons went toe-to-toe with Twilight.
"Time for some medicine." I said
'Ability Card Set'
"Triple Ability Activate! Twilight Stream plus Twilight Flash plus Fusion Ability Twilight Spirit!" I exclaimed

"Damn it! Vulcan's wiped out my ability!" exclaimed Twilight
"Aw crap! The difference in our points is over 500!" I exclaimed
"Prepare to meet your doom!" exclaimed Gus
I then saw a green light above me. But… who did I know came to New Vestroia and is a Ventus Brawler. It can't be, can't it? It is! Shun!
'Ability Card Set'
"Ability Activate! Thunder Power – Glimmering Slash!" exclaimed Shun

"It can't be! Sorry I failed Master Spectra." Said Gus
"It's fine. I'll take it from here. Helios, are you ready?" asked Spectra
"I am Master." Said Helios
"Let's go. Most powerful Bakugan, Pyrus Helios! Bakugan, Brawl! Bakugan, Stand!" exclaimed Spectra
Pyrus Viper Helios G-Power 600
"Holy cow! What is that ugly thing?" I exclaimed as I paled
"I don't know Sakura, but this one is powerful." Said Twilight
"That's Helios." Said Baron
Shun then dropped down behind me
"It's you Shun!" exclaimed Marucho
"Whoa, you mean Shun Kazami?" asked Baron
"So, you got stuck here by accident too?" asked Shun
"I guess you could say that." I said
"So, who are you?" asked Shun
"My name's Sakura, and let's just say I've been doing better until a problem named Spectra appeared." I said
"I can't wait to meet him. Why don't you say we show him how this is done?" asked Shun
"You read my mind. Hey pretty boy! It's about time we got this party started!" I exclaimed
"Ability Activate! Claw Thunder – Position Keganui!" exclaimed Shun
Pyrus Hyper Dragonoid G-Power 400
Spectra Life Force 60 percent
"Ability Activate! General Quasar!" exclaimed Spectra
Pyrus Viper Helios G-Power 800
Shun Life Force 30 percent
Twilight and Helios then went head-on, literally, into battle.
"So to think there were other Dragonoids in the species. I'll take you down just like I did with that Tigerra I crushed." Said Helios
"What?-! You're the one who took Tigerra away?" asked Twilight
"Tigerra…" I started
"That's right. Tigerra cried for mercy, just like you will." Said Helios
"What you've done to Tigerra…" started Twilight
"No, all of the Bakugan in New Vestroia…" I started
"Is unforgivable!" Twilight and I exclaimed in unison
Twilight began to glow as my mark lit up like a lantern. A new ability card appeared in my hand, and I knew what to do.
"How could a Bakugan such as that one hold so much power?" wondered Spectra
"Let's go! Ability Activate! Crimson Strike Blast!" I exclaimed
Pyrus Viper Helios G-Power 600
Haos Twilight Dragonoid G-Power 900
Spectra Life Force Zero
"Way to go Sakura!" exclaimed Dawn
"Excellent work Helios. Let's go Gus." Said Spectra
"Right away Master Spectra." Said Gus
"Come back any time, and I'll be sure to give the Avalon special with a side of kicking your ass!" I exclaimed
Later…
"So where have you been man?" asked Dan
"Yeah, you just disappeared off the map." Said Jack
"It was really weird. I was up in the mountains by myself working on my ninja skills, when suddenly a crack in the dimension appeared right in front of me! I was sucked into it and the next thing I knew, I landed here, wherever here was." Said Shun
"It's hard to say for sure, but maybe when we Vestals arrived in New Vestroia, it created a distortion in the dimensions." Said Mira
"That makes sense. And it would explain why we couldn't get through to you on Earth." Said Dan
"Then, pretty soon after that, I met Ingram. Ingram told me about the Vestals and from that moment on, I had devoted myself to freeing the Bakugan." Said Shun
"Hey Shun, was that you who saved me and Elfin when I battled against Mylene?" asked Marucho
"Yes. It was." Said Shun
"I hoped that was my brother." Said Mira
"You've gotta face it Mira. Come on, you'll see your brother when he wants to be seen, and not before." Said Ace
"But Shun, why did you disappear? Why didn't you just show yourself after the battle, and then come join us?" asked Dan
"Sorry Dan, I had to get back to something extremely important." Said Shun
"What could be more important than your old brawling partners?" asked Dan
"We're almost there. Alpha City, New Vestroia." Said Baron
"Hey, just where I was heading. I'm going to break in and find Skyress." Said Shun
*Preview*
Mira: Mira here. We finally arrived in the city and right away, Dan and the others put together a plan to destroy the controller. But I don't join them, I have something I have to take care of by myself, but that doesn't stop Dawn from tagging along. But can we honestly handle it alone? And the Vexos have something new up their sleeves. Could it be a mechanical Bakugan? Don't miss the next episode. Bakugan, Brawl! See ya then brawlers!
Done and done! Whew, this took me a while to write, but above and all, it's finally done! Please review, check out my poll, and until next time, I'm sakuraphoenix, saying I heart you, signing off for now. Kan dao ni!
