Hello people of fanfiction! How ya'll doing? School is a pain, can't wait for the summer!

At Wardington High…..

"Runo!" Jillian squealed. "I still can't over the fact we might come face to face with Dan Kuso and Shun Kazami!" Runo chuckled even though her blood was boiling.

"Me neither." She said. "Let's get on the bus, or we'll never get to the airport!" At that, Jillian grabbed Runo's wrist and dragged her on the bus. As soon as Runo stepped on, a bucket of ice cold water was dumped on her head.

"What the-" Runo was cut off by the other cheerleaders laughing at her, including Jillian who gave Runo an apologetic look.

"Sorry, it's a cheerleader tradition to prank the last girl to join." She explained. Runo took a deep breath and walked over to Alice's aisle and sat next to her instead.

"I swear, one day I'm going to kill my teammates." Runo muttered. "Especially Danielle." Alice shook her head and handed the blue haired girl a towel from her backpack. Runo took it and wrapped it around her dripping wet hair.

"I know what you mean. I love my new friends but all they talk about is saving the world. I'm still into that but it's not like it's my life." Alice said, sighing.

Runo glared at the cheerleaders then chuckled.

"What's so funny?" Alice asked, following her gaze.

"I can not wait to see their faces when I slap Dan, hug him, then slap him again." The Haos brawler said, giggling. "I'm not going to kiss him though because Julie will never let me hear the end of it." Alice shook her head but giggled at the thought.

"Alright Wardington! Let's start the trip with our school song!" The class president, Lily Roberts, cried. The class groaned as the music started.

My mother said to always love my school and make it more fantastic.

But how can I make Wardington fantastic when it's already so perfect?

Oh Wardington, oh Wardington.

How we love thee, I could sing and dance

Oh Wardington.

Runo groaned as the song ended. "Who in the right mind would make something so ridiculous?" She asked Alice. Danielle overheard and turned to face the blunette.

"Danny happens to like girls who can sing." She said confidently. "So who cares?" Runo and Alice shook their heads.

"Yeah, I'm sure Dan loves talented girls so why bother when you're going to be rejected?" Runo scoffed. Danielle huffed and turned around again to talk to Ashley.

"That. Witch. Must. Die!" She whispered. "We have to make this the worst trip ever for Runo Misaki!" Ashley nodded and smirked as she thought of how she and Shunny-Kun would make the blue haired girl miserable.

"Whoo, we're at the airport!" Someone yelled.

After the flight…

"Ooh….ah…." The teens gawked as they saw the American city. Runo nudged Alice's arm and nodded towards the new Bakugan Interspace.

"Wanna bet Dan and Shun are in there?" She whispered. Alice chuckled and shook her head.

"We'll meet them when the time is right Runo." She said as she started to walk towards the buses with the others. Runo groaned softly but followed the redhead.

"Alright, er…..I have an announcement to make!" Lily shouted as she blushed. "Turns out our hotel doesn't have enough rooms so unfortunately, some people will not have a place to stay. We are currently looking at students' relatives to see if they are willing to have a few students in their home for a few days. We'll check into our hotel later, but come on! Let's go have some fun and visit Bayview High! We've arranged for a visit and the classes are not aware of our presence. Let's go surprise them!" The teens groaned then started chattering excitedly. Runo and Alice shook their heads.

"Ooh, maybe we'll see Danny and Shunny-Kun!" Lulu squealed. Everyone walked towards the school since it was only ten minutes away. Two bells was heard, symbolizing it was sophomore lunch time. Runo and Alice shared a look before smirking. (AN: I know, hard to see Alice do that)

The teachers left to let the students wander and the Japanese students grinned nervously as they entered the school. Runo, Alice, Jillian, Luke, Danielle, Lulu, and Ashley were at the front of the crowd. Alice noticed Jillian give her brother an encouraging smile. Then suddenly, Luke went down on his knee and knelt in front of a confused blunette.

"Oh my freaking God! Luke, what are you doing?" Danielle shrieked causing everyone in the cafeteria, including the Bayview students, glance their way. A certain Pyrus, Ventus, and Subterra brawlers' jaws dropped, seeing who was at the entrance. Luke ignored Danielle and everyone else for his eyes were on Runo.

"Runo Misaki, I know we always argue and bicker and are constantly trying to outdo each other, but that is my way of disguising my deep love for you. Yes, I am not afraid to say it, not even in front of all these people, but I truly love you and I will die for you Runo. Your beautiful face glows in the moonlight, your eyes sparkle with such passion the stars could not outshine you. You're extremely talented, smart, and athletic and I know you deep down disguise your love for me with hatred but I do the same. So will you, Runo Misaki, take me, Luke Davis, as your boyfriend?" The blonde asked, hope in his eyes. All the girls sighed in a dreamy tone while a certain Subterra and Ventus brawler noticed the Pyrus brawler stiffen and glare at the two "lovers". Runo's eyes filled with tears, yet there was something in her eyes that masked her true emotion.

"Oh, Luke. That is the sweetest thing anyone has said to me, not even my…no one said anything like that." She said softly. Luke's inside went fuzzy; that had to be a good sign, right?

"So…." Luke asked hopefully.

"That is very sweet of you to hide your love; however….my heart belongs to someone else. I am so terribly sorry, Luke." Runo finished. The entire cafeteria gasped and Runo shut her eyes as Luke's face fell then glared at the ground.

"W-with who?" He demanded, angrily. "I love you…and he just steals you from me!" Dan winced as he saw Runo's anger flare.

"From you?" She roared. "I was never yours!"

"Yes, you were!"

"HOW?"

"I LIKED YOU AND I TOLD ALL THE GUYS IN SCHOOL TO NEVER HIT ON YOU BACK IN SEVENTH GRADE! IT DIDN'T MAKE MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE THOUGH. AFTER ALL, WHO WOULD GO OUT WITH AN UNGRATFUL SLUTTY OVERACHIEVING DINER GIRL LIKE YOU?" Luke yelled before gasping and covering his mouth as everyone in the room gasped. Runo's eyes drained the tears and loaded with fire instead.

"WHAT?" Runo screamed as she raised her fist.

"No, Runo!" Shun, Dan, Julie, and Alice yelled as they all ran up and grabbed the furious blunette. Shun and Dan grabbed her arms and lifted her in the air, the result being her screaming and kicking wildly.

"SHUN KAZAMI AND DAN KUSO LET ME GO!" Runo screamed angrily. Alice placed a hand on Shun's shoulder.

"Shun, let her go." She said as Julie told Dan the same thing. Shun and Dan let the calming Runo go. She looked at the ground then chuckled as she looked up. She glanced at Shun.

"For a ninja, you have one major weak spot. Alice has you wrapped around her little finger, Shun." She said, giggling. Julie and Dan smirked as Shun and Alice blushed. Then Julie nudged Runo's shoulder.

"Like you don't have Dan around yours?" She said playfully. Dan and Runo blushed.

"She does not!" The Pyrus brawler exclaimed. "I can do whatever I want, she's not the boss of me!" Runo put her hands on her hips.

"I'm not?"

"No!"

"Really? You're not even intimidated by me?"

"….No….."

"Ha, I'm right!"

"Nuh-uh!"

"Yeah huh!"

"Nuh-uh!"

"Yeah huh!"

"NUH-UH!"

"YEAH HUH!" Soon, Dan and Runo were screaming at each other, ignoring everyone else. Danielle, Luke, Jillian, Ashley, Lulu, Jake, and the other students watched with wide eyes and open mouths. Julie, Shun, and Alice smiled.

"In three…" Julie started.

"Two….." Shun said.

"One." Alice said. As she said one, Dan cupped Runo's face and kissed her hungrily as she kissed back just as passionate. Almost immediately, they pulled away, embarrassed as they stared at their friends.

"You two grow so predictable after three years of dating." Julie said, giggling. Dan and Runo glared at each other, then huffed and turned back-to-back with crossed arms. Alice raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, you two still act like seven year olds…..which is funny, because you hated each other since you were seven and rivaled each other when you two were twelve, and ever since we defeated Naga, you two have loved each other. You two are still in denial." She said. Dan and Runo turned bright red then they got a devious smirk as they turned to face each other.

"That's rich coming from someone who has a million guys on her tail." Runo said playfully. "Including the millionaire, Klaus Von Hertzen, aka, the Aquos brawler who was working for Masquerade." Alice blushed.

"Not to mention, out of all the guys you could have, you choose the boy who is quiet, and wears too tight pants, aka, Shun Kazami." Dan continued making Shun blush too.

"And look at the lovebirds now, ready to sneak off to make out and ditch us on our double date!" Dan and Runo said in unison. This time both Shun and Alice blushed together as they stepped slightly away from each other. Luke grabbed Runo's wrist.

"W-wait, you….a-and D-Dan Kuso? T-together? B-but…you.." He stammered as Danielle and Ashley glared at their rivals, Runo and Alice. Runo sighed.

"Luke, I agreed to go with you to the spring dance last year, yes, but as friends. I know you also paid Jillian to be my friend two years ago so there would be a reason for us to be with each other, I'm not stupid, but I decided to play your little game. I didn't know the rules, meaning I didn't know what you were up to but I couldn't be a depressed 'diner girl' while Shun and Dan were out who knows where brawling. Speaking of which…" Runo said as she smacked the back of Dan and Shun's heads. "That's for leaving us again. If I did love you, it would be a brotherly love. Like how I love Shun, but as a brother. An annoying, too quiet, older brother but still a brother. I'm sorry Luke, I can't ever love someone who would do something like that." Luke stormed off with Jillian behind him. Dan tightened his grip on Runo's hand. Soon, the other Wardington students split up and wandered around, once in a while, glancing at the five reunited brawlers.

"You did the right thing, Runo." Dan said. Runo bit her lip as she watched Julie squeal watching Alice and Shun share a kiss.

"I know, but still."

"What, you're not falling for Luke are you?"

"No, of course not!"

"How do I know you haven't been cheating?" Runo gasped and slapped Dan like she did a few years ago. (AN: Reference to Bakugan Battle Brawlers episode 7)

"How do I know you haven't been cheating?" She snapped.

"I wouldn't!"

"I wouldn't either!" Soon, their serious fight grew into another one of their pity fights. Julie sighed as she watched four of her best friends.

"Some things never change."

HI! Sorry, I'm still working on my other stories and I have a bunch of homework to do, but I'll try my best to update regularly. What did you think? Love, hate? Tell me by hitting that blue guy down there! Ya know his name? Psst, it's "Review". XD R&R!
