VR: yay! Chapter 3! its longer then the others. phew! please Read & Review :p

Shun looked around the living room with his same calm expression. It was empty expect for his grandfather.

"If you're looking for Mizore, she left after you got in the shower. "He said to Shun.

Shun thought for a second where Mizore could have gone. He then remembers that she went to the pet store to pick out a pet for her house. Shun sighed.

His grandfather looked at him.

Shun raised a brow at him. Why was his grandfather looking at him like that?

"Your training for today is done Shun. Why don't you go and see if Mizore found a pet at Lyra's pet store?" His grandfather said with a smile.

Shun sighed and took his brawling equipment and headed to Marucho's house. He grabbed his cell phone and left the house.

Mizore put Kazu down on the floor of her house and watched as he ran around the house sniffing around the floors.

Lyra sat the bag of dog stuff on the counter in the kitchen. She took out the rubber ball that Kazu had in his cage and rolled it over to him.

Kazu got the ball with his teeth and started to roll around in the floor with the ball in his mouth and started running around the house with it.

"He sure is a hyper one" Naomi said walking in the kitchen while watching Kazu play.

"His happy he got a home." Lyra said with a smile as she saw Kazu run back into the living room with the ball still in his mouth.

"Say Lyra, if you don't mind me asking what happened to him? You rescue and sell animals from the animal shelters. Right?" Naomi asked curiously.

Mizore looked at them from the living room where she was rubbing Kazu's belly as he rolled around in the floor.

Lyra's smile turned into a frown.

"That's right Nao-chan. Kazu's owners from before would starve him and beat him from the time he was born to the time he was rescued. They were soon arrested." Lyra explained.

She walked into the living room and sat on the couch in front of Mizore and Kazu. Naomi followed her and sat next to her.

"That's terrible! I hope they stay in there forever!" Naomi said looking at Kazu. "No animal or person should be treated like that."

Lyra smiled sadly.

"They most likely will. However I do agree with you. No one should have to go through that." She replied to Naomi.

Mizore picked up Kazu and hugged him.

"But how is he so happy and hyper like nothing happened?" Naomi asked

Lyra's smiled became happier.

"Dad and I took care of him and got him use to being in a good home." She replied again.

"So how come you thought of me?" Mizore asked still holding Kazu as she sat in the floor.

Lyra smiled and closed her eyes.

"Because I knew you would take care of him and love him as much as I and dad did. I didn't want anyone else to take him other then you. But if you wouldn't have taken him, then I would have." Lyra explained and opened her eyes. "He is a special dog who deserves a special family."

Mizore looked from Kazu to Lyra and back to Kazu. The look in Lyra's eyes told Mizore that Lyra really cared for all animals. She was a gentle soul, which always made Mizore think that Lyra would be more suited for animal caring school instead of Bakugan brawling. But Lyra was so passionate about both that Mizore nor did Naomi have the heart to say anything about it. She looked down at Kazu. She agreed with Lyra about Kazu. He was a very special puppy and she was happy to him as hers.

"Dawwww! Look at that baby face!" exclaimed a voice that made all three of the girls jump out of their skin.

Mizore looked over at the source of the voice and no surpised to her that it belonged to no one other than her Grandmother.

"Bakugan Brawler! Bakugan Stand!" Shun exclaimed as he through his Bakugan on to the field.

The Bakugan simulation replied the same thing and throws an aquos Bakugan on to the field. Shun activated an ability card that sent the simulation's Bakugan flying. These giving him the final win.

Shun fell onto his hands and knees and panted as his own Bakugan returned to him. it wasn't like having Skyress back. But he was still pretty good without however he missed his Bakugan partner.

"Shun! Are you okay?" Marucho exclaimed coming out of the simulation control room and running over to shun.

Shun didn't answer him for a while. But he soon nodded his head as to say yeah he was fine. He was just worn out because he was in the simulation for over two hours.

After a little while Shun stood up on his feet and walked out of the simulation room. He went back in the control room where he had left the rest of his stuff. He took out his phone and looked through his missed calls. All of them where from Dan of course, however there wasn't any from Mizore. Shun closed his phone and put it in his pocket.

He quietly wondered if she had gotten home.

Mizore's grandmother held Kazu in her arms in a big hug.

Mizore, Lyra, and Naomi watched her as Mizore's Mother cooked supper in the kitchen.

"Why don't you girls stay over? We can have a girl's sleepover!" she said happily.

Mizore felt her sweat drop down the back of her neck. She wasn't too into the whole sleepover thing. But her mother was crazy over it.

"Yeah!" Naomi and Lyra exclaimed in unison.

Mizore sighed in annoyance.

Kazu then barked with happiness. His tail wagging and Mizore's Grandmother sat him down on the kitchen floor.

"Well now that its official let party!" Mizore's Grandmother exclaimed with happiness.

Lyra, Naomi, and Mizore's mother all exclaimed "YEAH!"

Kazu barked happily as well

Mizore sighed again. This was going to be a long night for her.
