Chapter Twenty-Six:New plus Blues
After entering the main room, I was rather surprised to see Billy there and did the basic introductions and catching up in our own ways.
"Suprised to see you here."I said.
"Yeah, how did you find us?"Shun asked.
"You know, I have my sources."Billy answered
"Why didn't you call ahead to let us know you were coming?"Julie asked.
"You know me, Julie. I always like making a big enterance."Billy answered.
"I hear you've been travelling the world. I bet you have some awesome stories to tell."Dan said.
"Yeah, maybe a few. But it would be nothing to what you've been doing in New Vestroia and Vestal. I would rather talk about that stuff."Billy replied.
"You know about that!"Dan said shocked.
"More sources?"I said.
"Actually, I ran into Klaus a while back and he gave me one of these."Billy answered bringing a gauntlet out of his bag.
"A gauntlet! Why would you bring that here?"Shun asked.
"Why not? You never know when a gauntlet might come in handy."Billy said.
"What's wrong, Shun?"I asked.
"Something feels wrong."Shun answered.
We saw a certain transmission from Kato on the monitor screen.
"Master Marucho, your chief techincian wanted to inform you that everything is ready."Kato explained.
"Fantastic, tell him we'll be right there."Marucho answered.
"What test is he talking about?"Dan asked.
After approaching a whole new room we could find our answer.
"Follow me."Marucho said.
"What is this place?"Dan asked.
"It's like we're in some kind of video game."Ace said.
"Actually, Ace. You aren't that far off."Marucho replied."This is the operation room for the online virtual system I built called Bakugan Interspace."
"What the heck is Bakugan Interspace?"Dan asked.
"You remember when we were introduced to our bakugan we thought they were just part of a game."Marucho said starting to explain.
"Yeah, I remember. Shun and I even made up some of the rules."Dan said.
"Is that true?"Mira asked.
"We bakugan were like helpless pawns."Drago commented.
"I'm really sorry, buddy. That was before we knew you were living beings just like us."Dan said.
"Well, I wanted to see if I could bring back the fun elements of the game but in an virtual form that way no bakugan can be harmed. So I secretly started this project and been working on it in my spare time."Marucho explained.
"Looks like Billy isn't the only one who likes surprises."Runo commented.
"I don't know what's so great about surprises. They're totally overrated."Ace responded.
"Unless you're talking about surprise birthday parties. Espesically when there's ice cream and cake."Baron said making a random point.
"Let me understand this. Kids from all over the world can battle in this virtual arena anytime they want just by logging on."Mira said to clarify.
"Yes, that's basically it."Marucho agreed.
"Big deal. It sounds more like a chatroom."Shun replied unimpressed.
"No this is way cooler."Marucho said.
"Will you quit stalling then?"Preyas said unimpatient."Tell us about it!"
"Yes, Marucho. Tell us, tell us!"Elfin said like a little kid excited.
"After months of research and loads of trial and error, my team of computer engineers and technicans have found a way to import people to data and import that data into the virtual world."Marucho explained.
Basically, we could enter that virtual world now.
"Well, that's the theory anyway."Marucho admitted.
"What do you mean theory?"Elfin asked not as excited now.
"So you mean that..."Runo started.
"We get to test it out?"Mira asked.
"I was going to do it myself but now since you're all here."Marucho said.
"I don't know, I don't think you should make yourself a test guinea pig."Preyas said worried.
"Don't worry, my staff have run every safety test."Marucho said."But if any of you are still unsure, I understand. Bakugan Interspace is a great way for us to practice our brawling while we hide out from the Vexos."
"I say I'm in."Dan said.
"Yeah, I'm with master Dan."Baron agreed.
I didn't want to go, I wanted to check on Jesse to see if he was feeling any better.
"Jesse?"I said opening the door to his room.
He isn't in his room so there's only one place where he would be. I found him where Aelita was still in a coma but the weird thing is a coma is like being dead but they're still alive so it's harder to like not grieve I suppose.
"Hi."I said.
"Hi."Jesse replied refusing to take his eyes off Aelita.
"You know, you could use a drink."I recommended."I'm still here."
"I'll be back soon then."Jesse replied leaving the room.
"If you're gonna die just do it already."I told Aelita."I can't stand to be around this."
"You were always a drama queen and harsh too."
"You can talk, Aelita."I replied."Hang on..."
"No, I'm still in a coma. Which reminds me why couldn't you lot put me somewhere that didn't reek of amonia soaked death."
"At least I can talk from the mouth."
"Well, a chick that can talk without actually moving her mouth says a lot."
"That she can't go one day without being annoying?"
"Watch it! Anyway, Jesse seems to have seen better days."
"Yeah, should have seen him a while ago."
"Believe me, I saw it now...you lot do a very good job of making me feel guilty."
"Any idea when you'll even wake up?"
"Not a bloody clue! But I guess not much longer I hope and you lot hope too."
"Thanks, Lite."Jesse said.
"Stalking, huh? Well, believe me I would wake up if I could."
"I'm sure you would, you never take anything lying down."Jesse replied."I'll see you soon."
"Ha, ha!"
Jesse left the room afterwards finally at peace now.
"Well, Jesse has come a long way."
"How do you mean?"
"When he became a battler, he was a amateur brawler with a big mouth. Now he's a great brawler with a big heart now."
"Bye."I said.
"We may be taking seperate roads now but our paths will cross again!"
