The CHS and Crystal Prep girls were all in the lounge when the other heroes came in.

"Hey guys, how was the Crystalling ceremony for the new baby?" Rainbow asked seeing the others nearly frozen over. "Oh, that bad, huh?"

"Remind me never to attend that unless the baby isn't an actual alicorn." Emily said.

"What are you guys complaining about? That was fun!" Chopper said.

"Flurry Heart nearly froze us over, you furry little furball." Peacock said.

"I got half a mind to shave you and make your fur into a coat." Gray said.

"Take it up with Twilight because she sent the invite, not me." Starlight said.

"And we went because she's our friend. We know. Still nice to see her again." Jexi said.

"So, youre still going with us from time to time?" Hope asked.

"Sure. Twilight recommended it. Besides, I do technically owe you guys for saving me….from myself back at that human Equestria world." Starlight said.

"Okay, as a general reminder, we are not going anywhere unless it's an emergency." Jexi said.

Indigo then jumped into the room. "The Logbook on Dan's adventures is blanking out!"

"Blanking out? What do you mean by that?" Nami asked.

"I mean the words are literally disappearing from the pages." Indigo said showing the book as they literally saw the words vanish before their eyes.

The heroes shook the frost off them, dropped what they were doing and rushed to the time machine.

"Flux is messing with the space time continuum, again. And this time, he's gunning for you, Dan." Jexi said.

"Seriously? Ugh. So, how do we stop him?" Dan asked.

"We will go without you. Sorry, but we can't risk you meeting the you from the past." Tails said.

"Yeah, about that…" Dan said.

"You WHAT?" Jexi said.

"I said that I met you guys during my first adventure. Well, technically I met Luffy, Natsu, Ranma and Pit first before meeting the rest of you there." Dan said.

"Then we must have time traveled there before and asked you to act like you never met us. Ugh, Time Travel is always so confusing." Jexi said.

"Anyway, Flux is gunning for the Naga era, because that's when I met Drago and things all started. If he cuts us off for good, well… you know the rest."

"You never get swiped after your first adventure by Flux, you never help us stop Primal Dialga and Darkrai in the future." Aelita said.

"And we never form the team in the first place." Jexi said.

"So this is my first time travel adventure, huh?" Hope said.

"Yep. Let's get on the Sunny and get ready to go. There's too many technologies on the Star Speeder that interfere with time travel so we do it on the Sunny." Jexi explained.

"Awesome. I always wanted to sail on the Sunny." Hope said.

"Well it is the SUPER ship built by me." Franky said.

"When we get there, it's gonna be difficult because none of us know how to play the…" Jexi sai.

"I have tons of Bakugan of all attributes." Rainbow said as the others gaped. "What? I spend time collecting when we visit. And Celty gave me a cut on a job we worked on together. 500,000 thousand dollars." Rainbow said.

"How much do you have?" Weiss asked.

"Well, I still have a total of at least 350,000. That girl gets paid more than you guys might think." Rainbow said.

"She meant the Bakugan." Jexi said.

"Follow me." Rainbow said.

The group went into the sunny as Rainbow got a huge case of tiny spheres, cards, the works.

"Every single bakugan, gate and ability card from all generations. I even have a list of what attribute works for everyone." Rainbow said.

"How long have you been planning this?" Jexi asked.

"Like I said. I have free time. I've been keeping them in the janitor's closet." Rainbow said.

"But I go in there all the time. How come I never noticed?" Yosuke said.

"She's really good at hiding things." Pinkie said.

"We'll only use the Gen 1 bakugan since the other ones won't exist by then. I'll get everyone's attributes see when we get there. Now fire it up, Franky!" Rainbow said,

"You got it! Next stop, Past...Dan's World!" Franky said engaging the time machine.

The sunny roared through time as it soon came to a city with a sparking tower.

"So this is Nordinton." Jexi said.

"Engaging cloaking now. Prepare for splash down!" Franky said as the Sunny landed near the docks of the city.

"Okay, attribute time." Rainbow said holding red balls first. "The signature attribute, Pyrus. These guys are fire based. Natsu obviously gets one of these as does Sunny." Rainbow said.

"Nice." Sunny said.

"The other ones for Pyrus will be… Ranma, Luffy, Naruto, Chie, Yukiko, Ruby and Yang." Jexi said. "Now name your team."

"The Battle Blazers!" Natsu said. "Yeah! I'm getting all fired up about this!" Natsu shouted.

"Now for Aquos, water. They're focused on strategy and cunning. The ones for this attribute are Tails, Chopper, Weiss, Usopp, Twilight, Sugarcoat, and Juvia."

"Oh no! I won't battle with my Gray?" Juvia asked.

"Yeah, games like this aren't really my style." Gray said.

"Anyway, I think our team should be…. The Tides of Change." Sci-Twi said.

"Subterra, the Earth attribute. Defense and strength are their game, good combination. Applejack, you'll lead the team with Zoro, Erza, Franky, Knuckles, Vector and Kanji. You guys are the Mountain Conquerors!" Rainbow said.

"Hell yeah!" Kanji said.

"Ventus, wind." Jexi said. "All about speed, style and grace. Sonic can lead this team along with Wendy, Yosuke, Rainbow, Indigo, Brook, and Sanji."

"The Whirlwinds!" Sonic said.

"Haos, the light attribute. Their powers are strong, but also can confuse and set back opponent's." Hope said.

"That's got my name all over it!" Pit said. "As a warrior of Palutena, I pick Yu, Sunset, Lemon, Volt, Nami, Lucy, Aelita and Rise to join the Warriors of Light!"

"Nice, Pit. And you know what that means…" Jexi said. "Bring out the Duct tape!"

"Aw come on!" Pit said backing up.

"Sorry, but normal people don't have wings growing out of their backs." Odd said grabbing the tape.

"And finally…. Darkus, the darkness attribute. Bakugan from that attribute use shadows and a wild assortment of abilities to gain the upperhand in battle." Rainbow said.

"Darkness, huh? My kind of party." William said stepping up. "I'll take Crona, Robin, Gajeel, Mirajane, Painwheel, Valentine and Thorn. We're Shadow's Edge."

"The rest of us will keep watch for any suspicious activity. Now come take your picks of cards and bakugan. I also created ones for the main Persona's the investigation team uses." Hope said.

"I made them, you just provided the sketches." Tails said.

"And does everyone have the field cards so that they can battle?" Jexi said.

They all held up the cards symbolizing the circle of the attributes. "Good, now find Dan and help him with his battle today. He's got one scheduled."

Dan, in question, just came home and went upstairs.

"Mom! I'm home!" Dan said.

"Daniel! I put your lunch in the fridge and don't forget to wash up!" He mother called out.

"Let's check out my stash." Dan said opening a container of Bakugan.

"I'll take my Falconer… oh, definitely my Saurus! Oh yeah, and my Serpenoid for sure! All set!" Dan said.

"Daniel? Are you heading out? Your lunch will get cold!" His mother called out.

"Then why did you put it in the fridge? Catch you later!" Dan said before running out the door.

He then ran straight into the Battle Blazers as well as the Warriors of Light, more specifically, into Natsu.

"Hey, watch where you're going, jerk!" Natsu shouted.

"Sorry, got a battle today. Hey, any of you interested in joining in?" Dan asked.

"I'll do it." Pit said.

"Hey, why do you get dibs?" Natsu said. "I nearly froze a foot off earlier today so I should get dibs!"

"Well youre not the one who has duct tape strapped to… I mean, had an entire roll of duct tape fall on top of him!" Pit said.

"Sorry man, but the one with the Laurel called first." Dan said. "C'mon, Akira's waiting."

"Ha!" Pit said following after Dan as the others tried to catch up. They soon arrived in a park where a boy with buck teeth and a green shirt waited.

"Wait, it's that pipsqueak? He's the one who called you out?" Natsu asked.

"Hey, anyone can play this game. So, we doin this or what?" Dan said.

"Oh, it's not me your fighting, Danny boy." Akira said as a larger boy got up from the bench.

"So, my little bro tells me you're pretty good at Bakugan."

"Yup. Name's Dan Kuso." Dan said.

"Well my names Shuji, master of….Subterra Space." He gloated.

"What an ego. Not as bad as Hades, though." Pit said. "You dont mind if i join in, do you?"

"A newbie getting pounded with Dan? I like it! Youre on!" Shuji said.

"Yeah. Prepare to meet the light!" Pit declared.

"Bakugan…. Field, open!" The three declared as field glowed around the three as time began to slow down outside of it.

The next thing anybody knew, they were in a void of time. A white space was all that was left.

"Ready to go, new guy?" Dan said.

"Yup. Toss these out first, right? Gate card, set!" Pit said tossing the card out as it grew into a larger one.

"Gate card, set!" Shuji and Dan said tossing their own.

"Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan stand!" Shuji shouted tossing the first one as a mantis like creature appeared. "Go get them, Mantris!" Shuji shouted.

"So this is what Dan did before meeting us! This is pretty cool!" Pit said in excitement.

"Eyes on the big bug, Pit!" Said a voice in his head.

"Viridi?" Pit said.

"Palutena's busy, and you dont have a Baku-pod, so I have to help you out. You better not lose or I'm coming down there!" She shouted.

"Okay, okay!" Pit said. "So, what do we got?"

"That things called a Mantris. It has 270 gs, or G-power to a newb like you. The objective is to overpower the enemy with higher power. Win three games and you earn the victory." Viridi explained.

"Bakugan… Brawl!" Dan's said. "Bakugan Stand! Pyrus Serpenoid!"

A large snake like creature then appeared.

"Okay, now it's my turn! Bakugan Brawl!" Pit said tossing a white ball. "Bakugan Stand! Appear, Haos Robotallion!" Pit shouted as a robot like creature appeared before him.

"Wait, you missed the bug and the snake!" Luffy said as the Robotallion was on the far side of Dan's Gate card.

"Hey, this is my first time throwing something without a weapons help! Get off my back!" Pit shouted.

"Well, that's lucky for you. A Robotaillions power level is only 300Gs. You can easily crush that bug." Viridi said.

"But I gotta wait until they either shoot on the next turn." Pit said.

"Go, Serpenoid! Wrap that big bug!" Dan shouted as Serpenoid wrapped around the Mantris. Shuji snickered as this happened. "Gate Card open up now!" Shuji shouted.

A desert then appeared around the area as Mantris powered up to 420 Gs.

"That was a element boost card. It raised the power of anyone who is the same element as the card." Viridi said.

"So I would have been crushed if I had landed there, right?" Pit asked.

"Yep. Like that snake is about to be." Viridi said.

Serpenoid then reverted to ball form as Mantris returned to Shuji.

"Oh man. Dan, you fell faster than a house of cards in a tornado!" Shuji said. "Now it's your turn newbie! Bakugan Brawl! Stand up, Terrorclaw!"

A crab creature then appeared on Pit's gate card.

"Now's your chance, Pit!" Viridi said.

"Right. Gate Card Open!" Pit shouted. " Super Speed!"

"Super what?" Dan said. "I never even heard of that card."

"It allows my Robotallion to move to wherever I chose. And I pick my own card!" Pit shouted.

The robotallion teleported to the Terrorclaw. It pulled back a fist before punching the large bug, sending it back into ball form before returning to Pit.

"All right, Pit!" Naruto shouted.

"Thanks!" Pit said rubbing the back of his head and laughing.

"You won't be laughing for long! Gate card set!" Shuji said as he and Dan both sent out Sauruses the Subterra one boosting itself with another reactor.

"Not this time! Ability Card activate! Saurus Glow!" Dan shouted as his Saurus gained a power boost, knocking the other Saurus over and sending it back to Shuji.

"This is impossible." Shuji said.

"Yeah. Looks like you just have the big bug left on your team. No worries, right?" Pit asked.

"It all comes down to this." Dan said as the three got their balls.

"Bakugan… Brawl!" All three said putting all three on the same card.

"Mantris!" Shuji said.

"Falconeer!" Dan said.

"Tuskor!" Pit shouted.

On the card appeared Mantris, a bird like creature and an elephant like creature as well.

"Dogpile!" Natsu said as all three slammed into each other and battled, which didn't last long when Pit's Tuskor overpowered Mantris, taking it out of battle.

"No!" Shuji shouted.

"Game over. Winner: Dan Kuso and Pit." a computer voice said.

Time reverted to normal as Dan grasped Pit's hand.

"You aren't any newbie to this game, are you?" Dan asked him.

"Actually, I am. This was actually my first match." Pit blushed.

"What happened? You said you would clean his clock!" Akira said.

"I'm sorry." Shuji said.

"And then this guy with a laurel came in and it was a 2 on 1. You guys should've seen it. He had this one Gate Card I never even heard of." Dan said to his friends online.

"Yes. Well, I did a check on the Gate Card you mentioned on the website and there's no results for it. And the one you mentioned didn't even appear before today. Look here he is." A boy with blond hair said before bring up Pit's current profile.

"What the? How is that possible?" Dan said.

"Dunno." A girl in blue said. "But that fight only took you to 121 in the world rankings."

"Youre kidding, Runo! Lemme see. Ha! 117!" Dan said.

"Wow, that's up four whole spots in one day! Worthy of a big smooch from Julie!" Said a girl with white hair.

"Ack! No way, Julie!" Dan said getting back from the screen.

"But what kind of an idiot wastes energy on that? Save it for the top ten, why don'tcha?" Runo said.

"Hey, I'm working my way up there." Dan said. "Any Ideas, Marucho, Alice?"

"Well, you could focus on the number one ranked battler, which in this case is Shun." Marucho said.

"But that could take a few years. People say he's good with Ventus, almost like a ninja. Besides, I can't." Dan said leaning back bed.

"There has to be someway to contact him, right?" Alice asked.

"Believe me, if there was, I would have done it by now." Dan said looking at the ceiling.

Meanwhile, in the real realm of the Bakugan…. Vestroia. Another event was taking place as we speak, with Flux and his cronies caught in the middle.

"Damn it! We overshot the destination." Flux said looking out into a fire like world.

"But we are following that dragon, Naga. He even said too… oh my god there's a giant red dragon out there!" Ian said.

"Out of my way, Drago!" Naga said.

"He tricked you idiots! He never intended to help us. We're his human shield, damn it!" Flux said.

"Why are you so obsessed with gaining power, Naga? You know it will only lead to world destruction!" Drago said.

"That sounds like a paradise to me." Zavok said.

"Silence. You have no idea how my kind has felt for so long!" Naga said.

"And us, too!" Flux said. "Hey, skull dragon guy! Tell us where youre headed and we'll come with!"

"Ha! You think I would have my prize tainted by human hands?" Naga said slamming his tail into the ship, knocking it into the other dragon.

Naga then tossed a card and it grew into a portal of sorts.

"Ha! That's our ticket to mayhem! So long, lizard lips!" Flux shouted as Naga and the ship went into the portal as it closed behind them.

Back on earth, Shuji confronted Dan.

"I want a rematch! And this time with one of those Pyrus brawlers! The Haos one cheated somehow!" Shuji said.

"Fine with me. I've been fired up for a long while now." Natsu said stepping up.

"Let's go!" Dan said.

"Field open!" The three said as they were warped to the new field. On it, the three threw down their gate cards.

"Bakugan brawl! Bakugan Stand! Go, Darkus Juggernoid!" Shuji shouted as a turtle like creature appeared.

"What? Where did you get a Darkus beast?" Dan asked.

"Just call me….Master of Darkus!" Shuji gloated.

"He clearly has Bakugan of all attributes. He must switch out if he loses with one." Ranma said.

"Dude. You aren't a master of anything! You suck at this game!" Luffy shouted.

"Just play your guys!" Shuji yelled back.

"Okay! I'll go with my… huh?" Natsu said as an entirely different sphere with a different pattern showed up. "Better then nothing, Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand!" Natsu shouted as a large dragon began to appear.

"What the?! I've never seen a dragonoid like that before!" Shuji said.

Shuji was right as it had spikes on it's back and a mouth that split at the bottom.

"Awesome! I think I'll call it….Igneeloid!" Natsu said.

"You were just thinking of Igneel!" Pit said. "And you completely missed that… turtle thing!"

"Bakugan Brawl! Stand, Saurus!" Dan said as Saurus was on another card than the one Juggernoid was on as well.

"Aw, man I missed it too." Dan said.

"Oh, that's not gonna be a problem. Bakugan Brawl!" Shuji shouted launching another one. "Bakugan Stand! Get him, Stinglash!" '

A scorpion like creature then appeared with a human face on the card Saurus was on.

"310 Gs? He doesn't even need to power up!" Natsu said as Sarus was defeated easily.

"Ha! Who's bad at this game now?" Shuji gloated.

"Still you!" Luffy said.

"We're just getting started!" Natsu said.

In the center of Vestroia, the villains and Naga beared witness to the two cores.

"Infinity and Silence. At long last, I can gain the power I so desire!" Naga said flying to the Silent core.

"Oh no you dont!" Flux said as weapons were locked on him, only for nothing to come out. "Okay, who was put on reload duty?"

"Zeena, but I think she was… occupied with herself." Zavok said.

"Just fly into the dang thing!" Buggy said.

But they were too late as Naga had already flown into it and began absorbing the power. "Yes! I can feel it! So much power!" Naga said. "No wait, it's too much! Too much! No! Its sucking me in!" Naga said going into the Silent Core as a pulse was released.

"Emergency! Get the shields up immediately. We can't risk being stranded in a place like this!" Flux commanded the grunts.

The shields were pulled up as the Dark Cruiser was knocked back, as were the cores.

"What happened? Naga! He's tipped the balance!" Drago said as a Fear Ripper charged him and held him tight.

"What's a Darkus Bakugan doing in Pyrus space?" Dragon wondered as he battled the Fear Ripper.

Back at the battle, it was heated.

"Command card! Quartet battle!" Dan said as the card opened. Igneeloid was shifted to the battle as was the two in vestroia, teleporting them to the battle.

"What the? Where did they come from?" Ranma said.

"It's like the journal used to say. Drago and a Fear Ripper appeared out of Vestroia and battled in front of Dan and Shuji." Lucy said to the group.

"Fear Ripper, you must come to your senses!" Drago said. "The Negative energy of the Silent Core has eliminated your reasoning!"

"Did it just talk? I must be hearing things!" Dan said.

"Fellow dragonoid, assist me!" Drago said as Igneeloid joined him. "Boosted Dragon!"

"Dragon Flame!" Igneeloid said as they unleashed large fireballs at the Fear Ripper.

"You need some help there, dragon guy?" Natsu shouted.

"No! Stay where you are, it's risky to have you show your magic!" Igneeloid said as the Fear Ripper was defeated.

"I lost again!" Shuji said crying as time returned to normal.

Back at the ship, the others stood before each of the created bakugan recently.

"I am Wendy's partner, Grandeenoid." Said a green dragon.

"And I am the partner of Gajeel, Metalicoid!" Said a purple dragon.

"So how come Natsu and the other dragon slayers got talking Bakugan? That never happened." Hope said.

"It could be because of us time travelling to the past." Jexi said.

"So we have our own dragonoids now. That's so weird." Wendy said.

"I betcha mine could take yours any day, Salamander!" Gajeel shouted.

"This again? You already did that thing with Pantherlily. Speaking of which, I don't see him, Happy, Carla or Jibanyan anywhere." Lucy said.

"Oh, I gave them a very special job." Jexi said.

Back at Dan's house, the four cats were stacked on top of each other with Jibanyan on top, watching into Dan's room. "Okay. I can see it!"

"You too, Dan? Many others heard there's talk, too." Runo said.

"Whoa. Maybe bakugan is more of a game then I thought." Dan said.

"It looks like he's saying other talking Bakugan thingies are all over the world!" Jibanyan said.

"That's great. Now can we take a break and get fish now? My legs are killing me!" Happy said at the bottom of the totem pole of felines.
