Alice's house- 9 o' clock
Alice could hear Masquerade talking to her at the back of her mind. She wasn't standing in the Kitchen anymore…She was standing on the grassy plains where Masquerade said goodbye to her two years ago.
"You know you want to Alice" Masquerade said in a tempting and confident tone something that she lacked in herself.
"Masquerade I'm just afraid….. If I give in I might not come back…..." Alice said stuttering unsure of herself.
Masquerade gave his 'signature smirk' in reply. Somehow it gave her confidence. There was a blind flash and she was back at the Kitchen again with Hydranoid looking at her curiously.
"So what do you say?" he asked, "ready to help your friends?". He had noticed Alice's blank expression a minute ago and knew what had happened.
Her eyes moved in between the mask and Hydranoid and in reply she lifted the mask to her face and put it on. Then there was another blinding flash as she was transported to the Grassland but this time she was all alone….
In less than a minute Alice, the kind, introvert girl was transformed into Masquerade, a powerful and confident brawler. Her orange hair turned blond and rose up defying gravity. Her regular Lavender sweater and Yellow skirt turned into a White trench coat, Purple pants and Black boots.
Then he dived into the portal with Hydranoid at his tail.
New Vestroia-10 o' clock:
"Good to see you after a long time Master!" Hydranoid wished obediently.
He was not sure about the mood his Master was in right now. Imagine, if he knew Dan Kuso was also here…..he thought shuddering even thought it was very warm.
Better to stay on the safer side he concluded, when Masquerade's grunt brought him out of his thoughts.
"Come on, why are we here?" Masquerade asked annoyed "All I know is 'New Vestroia is in Danger'. How are all the Bakugan are missing? Does that mean someone captured them?" he said to himself.
Hmm….he hasn't changed at all so definitely the safer side Hydranoid concluded again.
"Master after we…hmm….the humans saved Vestroia we were living peacefully but people from another world calling themselves Vexos reached New Vestroia. The Vexos created 3 dimension controllers to turn the Bakugan into ball form again and making them their slaves for amusement, not knowing that Bakugan are intelligent creatures. Three cities were built to disguise the dimensional controllers. Gorem, Preyas, Skyress and Tigrerra were captured….." he said trailing off.
Why did he stop? I know it's not finished. It looks like he is debating whether to tell me something or not. Masquerade thought controlling another grunt, He is starting to get on my nerves.
"What are you hiding? Just spill it" Masquerade said with a remarkable coldness that sent shivers down his spine.
Hydranoid sighed. It seems to imply that he was much more comfortable with Alice. Masquerade thought frustrated. Even I can't believe that he's my Bakugan!
"Master, it's just that Drago also separated from Infinity Core…." Hydranoid replied trailing off.
"I am not going to deal with Dan Kuso now….We have bigger problems on the line…" Masquerade said "But after we're done with the Vexos, I would deal with him personally"
"Yes Master!" Hydranoid replied dutifully.
New Vestroia-12 o' clock:
They reached the base when Ace came out and stood in front of them.
"Ace, meet the Bakugan Battle Brawlers from Earth, the new members of Bakugan Battle Brawlers Resistance" Mira said cheerfully. Ace just frowned.
Oh no, this is not a good sign Mira thought. The last thing she wanted was Ace to chase away the little bit of help she had gathered.
"Hey! Any of you guys have any Bakugan?" Ace asked, his hands crossed over his chest.
I can see where this discussion is goi- Mira thought but Dan's voice cut her off.
"I do"
Boys….. Mira thought slapping her fore head. She walked away and Runo and Julie decided to follow her in.
The boys came in an hour later covered in sweat and grime.
"I won!" Dan yelled excitedly, "Party anyone?"
"Don't be so full of yourself" Ace said annoyed, "You just won barely."
I am really happy that Dan won Runo thought, after all he is the Number: 1 Brawler…
"Well Ace" Mira said smirking, "It seems you're not the best after all."
"Why you-" said Ace gritting his teeth "I'd like to see you try, it's not my fault that Drago has the infinity core"
"Are you saying that I'm weak?" Mira questioned her face contorted in rage.
"Umm... Marucho" Julie said, "They seem to be bickering just like Dan and Runo" Marucho sweat dropped.
Dan and Runo were having another discussion.
"Hey Runo!" said Dan "He seems a lot like Shun right?".
"Yeah! Now when I think about it" Runo lowered her voice, "Do you think he and Alice are all right?" she shot Julie and Marucho a glance, "With portals and stuff…."
"They'll be fine" Dan said confidently, "Now's not the time to worry about them, now its food time!" He grinned.
By the time they had finished off with what had happened in New Vestroia and all the introductions, it was already night. So they had dinner (Dan was pretty upset about his non-existent party) and went to bed, each dreaming that their Bakugan was still with them.
Vexos Headquarters-Around midnight
A hooded figure jumped down from the fort walls of the headquarters. The moment his feet landed on the grey floor, an alarm started beeping in the distance. He rushed through several corridors as he heard several voices.
"There is an intruder Sir!" said one of them.
"We have to stop him! I wonder if he is a member of the resistance"
The intruder stood facing a black door. He had been planning to get into it but it flung open. Another hooded figure was standing in the door way.
"So you're the one who set of the alarm" he mused out aloud, "Good luck in getting past the Vexos, Shun Kazami" The intruder then ran off at top speed.
He was very surprised when the other intruder knew his name but he didn't plan on following him as it could be a trap. Silently he started running in the opposite direction.
