Marduk P.O.V.
On one gate card...
Aquos Princess: 700Gs
Haos Leviathan: 900Gs
On a separate gate card...
Haos Omega Leonidas: 900Gs.
Aquos Terrorclaw: 900Gs (Fern used multiple abilities. Terrorclaw's power doesn't extend that high, truth be told)
"Let's take down that Terrorclaw, Marduk!" Kaiyo yelled. I thought differently.
"Let's go, Vladitor! Bakugan brawl!" I threw Vlad onto the card with Fern and Zero's bakugan on them. Kaiyo facepalmed.
"Ability activate, Waterhole!" Princess appeared outside the gate card.
"Ability Activate. Sunspot." Leviathan also appeared outside the gate card.
"Oh crud." I cursed, and the card blew up. We lost...
"I can't believe you just went and lost us the brawl!" Kaiyo yelled at me after the brawl. She did look pretty ticked off.
"It wasn't my fault!"
"Well, if you hadn't wanted to stroke your ego, you would have thrown Vlad onto your card with Leo instead of taking both Fern and Zero!"
"My ego just got very insulted by you." I replied rather calmly, considering the fact that I was in a very bad mood. The girl, Plant, or whatever her name was, Fern, giggled. One, no, Two, no, Zero-yeah, that's right-just sighed.
"If you're done arguing, Kai and Marduk, you might want to consider the fact that when you two work together, you are completely hopeless." He stated.
"Hey!" Kaiyo rounded on him. "my name's not Kai! it's Kaiyo!" Leo and Vlad rolled their eyes.
"Kaiyo? As in Kaiyo 'The Gamer' Takarin?" Fern said. "It said online that you were number one until you got your butt kicked by Masquerade and Hal-G combined." i saw Kaiyo wince at that. Vlad looked surprised.
"Until you regain your pride, you're just Kai to the Doom Squad." Zero said. "A mere part of your name. I can tell you are not truly brawling at your best."
"Keep your comments in your mouth before i knock out your teeth." Kaiyo grumbled. Zero sighed again.
"Come on Fern. Let's go." The pair walked out of the park and disappeared from my line of sight.
"Whaddaya mean, you got your butt kicked by The Doom Beings?" I asked the defeated looking Kaiyo. "I've seen Leonidas take on Hydranoid and Vladitor no problem! He can probably take on Naga too!" Leo snarled. I must have struck a nerve.
"Masquerade and Hal-G teamed up with someone else." Kaiyo growled. "Some kid called Jiga o Kaeru. He's a little known brawler that recently took up my spot as number one."
"Jiga o Kaeru?" i asked. "Who's he?"
"Like I said, I dunno. I bet those were his lackeys. Doom Squad, did they call themselves?" Kaiyo said.
"Then we're gonna do something about this 'Doom Squad'." I said. Kaiyo nodded.
"Yo, Dan! What's up?" Kaiyo asked the little webcam.
"Nothing much, I guess." Dan Kuso, leader of the Bakugan Battle Brawlers, said with a yawn. "Just trying to stop Masquerade, Naga, and Hal-G from destroying the world. No biggie."
"There's this guy Jiga o Kaeru. It sounds like he's trying to take over the world too."
Kaiyo told him. Dan sighed and stretched in his chair.
"Kaiyo, i've got way too much on my hands. I can't even find a decent Darkus brawler who doesn't want my head on a stake." That last remark, i found rather true. One of Kaiyo's friends, Saku, a Darkus brawler, got mad at him and chased him with a steak knife the last time we all got together. Then I hate him. Masquerade hates him too. "Sorry Kaiyo, but I can't do anything." Kaiyo put her head in her hands.
"Then what are we gonna do?" she asked Dan. Ha. That was funny. she was asking Dan, the eleven year old, for advice, while clearly, the eldest and most wisest one was sitting in the room with her.
"You can get together your own team." Dan said brightly. "The Bakugan BETA Brawlers."
"Okay." Kaiyo agreed. "Why BETA?"
"Because Beta is the second letter in the Ancient Greek Alphabet."
"Geez, that was smart." Kaiyo remarked. Dan laughed.
"You're gonna make Runo jealous." He said. Kaiyo snickered.
"She thinks you're stupid enough Dan Kuso."
"Hi Kaiyo!" Runo's face appeared.
"Hey Runo."
"Something wrong?"
"Yeah. Dan made a smart comment." Runo gasped aloud.
"No way!"
"Yes way."
"Are you saying i'm dumb?" Dan interjected.
"Bye Runo. Bye Dan." Kaiyo logged out and Dan and Runo's cheery faces disappeared.
"Now, let's just get our team together."
I pulled Kaiyo aside.
"Are you seriously gonna lead these idiots into wherever the heck the Doom Squad is hiding?" i asked her, pointing to her ragtag group of friends. Rikki, a Pyrus Brawler was beating up Sora, the Aquos Brawler. Saku, the other Darkus Brawler, laughed at this, while Peter the Ventus Brawler and Dustin the Subterra brawler looked in amusement. Kaiyo hit me on the head with her fist.
"They aren't idiots." She retorted. "They're smarter than you are. Besides, they're all we've got." I turned back to the little group. Saku was try not to laugh as she attempted to separate Sora and Rikki who were now yelling something incoherent. Peter had fallen asleep, and Dustin was as silent as ever. I made a "I told you so" face at Kaiyo, who stuck her tongue out.
"OI!" She yelled. Everyone froze in place. "Thank you. So, to the point. There's this dude that wants to take over the world of Bakugan. We're gonna stop him."
"Isn't that Dan's job?" Asked Peter.
"Yeah, but he's busy." I said. "So we're gonna help. But first, I'm gonna see if you guys qualify...Kekekeke~" Everyone gulped. When it came to brawling, Kaiyo and Leo were normally merciless in battle.
"Aiya! Don't worry, I'll go easy on you. Kekekeke~" Everyone raised their eyebrows. "Okay, I can't activate any fusion abilities." Still, no one trusted her.
"You can battle Marduk." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "If, he can beat me."
I stood my ground. I had Vladitor back, and I would win.
"Fine, you want to brawl? Let's brawl!"
"Master Jiga. We have something to report." Zero knelt at the custom made boots of Jiga o Kaeru.
"Ah, Zero. You are the prince of this group, no? Don't kneel down like that." Jiga scolded. "I am simply the Bakugan Emperor." He smiled evilly.
"Master Jiga, we have heard that Kaiyo Takarin is forming a group in order to take you down." Zero said.
"Oh please." Jiga gave a tinkling laugh. "I can trust you to take them down. You Doom Squad beings are quite superior. I know you won't fail me." Zero nodded.
"Yes sir." He exited the room. When he returned, Fern cornered him.
"How was the meeting with the master?" She asked. Zero growled.
"I still don't trust him. I can't even see his eyes with all those bandages. C'mon Fern. Let's go check on the others."
Marduk: 0 wins
Kaiyo: 2 wins
"Oh please, are you even trying?" Kaiyo yawned at me. I growled. She really was going easy on me, and I hated it. She only activated one ability.
Leonidas: 1100Gs
Vladitor: 1100Gs
"Ability Activate!" I yelled. "Thousand Destroyer!"
Leonidas: 1100Gs
Vladitor: 1300Gs
"Ability Activate, Sigma Destroyer." Kaiyo yawned again. Great. I growled.
Leonidas: 1300Gs
Vladitor: 1300Gs
"Fusion Ability Activate!" I roared, because roaring makes things more dramatic. "Millennium Explosion! This causes Vlad to gain most of your G-power, leaving you with just 100Gs"
Leonidas: 100Gs
Vladitor: 2500Gs
"Nuh-uh-uh." Kaiyo waggled her finger at me. "Fusion Ability Activate! Epsilon Cannon. I just gained most of your Gs."
Leonidas: 2500Gs
Vladitor: 100Gs
"Finish this Leo!" Kaiyo yelled, and wham-pow, the battle was over.
"Does that mean we have to brawl Kaiyo?" Sora asked. Kaiyo shook her head.
"Eh. You can brawl Marduk."
"Alright! We have a standing chance!" Rikki and Peter shouted together.
"Am I really that harsh a brawler?" Kaiyo asked me later on.
"You have no idea." Said Vladitor.
"Sorry buddy." Said Leo. And I prepared myself to brawl Peter and Ventus Halcyon. Oh boy, this was gonna be fun.
Yo. It's Marduk. After another humiliating defeat by Kaiyo, I'm not letting the noobs get on the team easy. Let's see who wins and joins the team then, shall we? Bakugan brawl! Let's go Vladitor!
