SailorStar9: Chapter 1 goes up. This is Chapter 2.

Disclaimers: I do not own both the animes. However, I do own the pairing, I hope.

Chapter 2: Nightmare In Doomsville

"You know fellows." Preyas started "I'm not so sure we should've come to the Doom Dimension."

"Yes, but we have to save Dan and Drago." Julie pointed out.

"See anything, Shun?" Runo asked as Skyress flew back.

The ninja-in-training shook his head.

"Not good." Runo muttered.

"You've all got a case of 'Doom and Gloom'." Julie chided. "Come on, let's do this."

"Julie is right, Runo." Marucho agreed. "We came to the Doom Dimension by our own free will to find Dan and Drago. This is our mission."

"All right, what do you say we saddle up and we all go this way, buckaroos." Preyas pointed his thumb in the direction before him.

"No, we go that way." Gorem objected.

"Hey! I want to be trail-boss!" Preyas complained.

"And I want to find Dan." Gorem reminded him.

"What?" Preyas demanded. "Treat me like I'm an idiot. Woah, that's rich, Gorem, real rich. Oh okay then, let's follow the big lump with a brick for a brain."

"Hey look!" Julie cut them off. "I see someone coming."

"Huh?" the rest chorused.

"Dan!" Runo beamed as Drago came flying in.

"Hey look! Danny boy!" Preyas joked. "And Drago!"

"Drago, look!" Dan blinked as the Pyrus dragon landed.

"What are they doing here?" Drago inquired.

"Oh thank goodness, you're safe." Runo beamed.

"I for one, knew we would find you." Marucho added.

"I told them all along we have absolutely nothing to worry about.: Julie noted.

"Thanks for coming." Dan jumped off Drago. "But do you realize this is the Doom Dimension?"

"Did Masquerade sent you here?" he pressed.

"You did this on purpose." he death-panned at the trio's laughter.

"No need to thank us, Danny." Preyas remarked. "It's our pleasure."

"Oh man! I can't believe you guys are such complete idiots!" Dan hollered.

"Listen, Mr. Smarty Pants." Runo fumed. "Everyone of us came here to rescue you!"

"You pin-heads realize we could be trapped here forever?" Dan retorted. "What in the world were you thinking anyway?"

"About you!" Runo snapped.

"So, are you saying you want us to leave you alone here?" she relented.

"Well no." Dan blinked.

"Take it out on me." Shun offered. "It was my idea."

"Don't listen to Shun." Marucho scolded. "We all decided to come to this place."

"Marucho's right." Julie agreed. "The Bakugan Battle Brawlers do everything as a team."

"Oh man." Dan muttered. "That is so... cool."

"I appreciate this guys." he added as the whole team clustered around him. "Thanks."

"Real touching." Preyas cut in. "Now, what do you say we get out little hinnies out of here? Like we split huh?"

"Yes, but which way is out?" Tigrerra asked.

"No clue." Preyas shook his head.

"I should have done that a long time ago." Tigrerra remarked, after swiping Preyas to the ground with her paw.

"Wasn't expecting that." Preyas got to his feet. "And now, let's get on with business, shall we? If we think we can get out of here, then it will happen. Who's with me?"

"Correct me if I'm wrong." he added, after a moment's of silence. "But I get the feeling you're not buying into my plan."

"Oh, it has nothing to do with you personally." Runo remarked, after the teens deathpanned at him.

"Thanks guys." Preyas chuckled. "That makes me feel a whole lot better."

"Now are you going to listen to me or not?" he fumed.

"Hey, we can do this." Dan told his team after the teens burst out laughing. "We'll find a way out of this dump."

"And we can grant that wish, my friends." Apollonir remarked, manifesting before the group.

"Who are you?" Dan asked, shielding his eyes.

"I am Apollonir." Apollonir introduced himself. "An Ancient Pyrus Soldier."

"I am Clayf." Clayf appeared. "A Subterra Soldier."

"I am Lars Lion." Lars Lion was next. "A Haos Soldier."

"Exedra." Exedra appeared. "Darkus."

"I am Frosch." Frosch introduced himself. "An Aquos."

"Oberus." Oberus continued. "I am a Ventus Soldier."

"And our Princess." Apollonir concluded as Eva manifested between to six Soldiers. "The Messiah of Vestroia."

"The legendary six Soldiers of Vestroia." Drago stated. "And the Messiah herself."

"You've heard of us then." Oberus noted.

"Then we shall spare you a long-winded history of our plight" Frosch added.

"What do you want?" Shun demanded.

"Our mission is very clear, we seek a new band of brothers to help save Vestroia from total destruction." Apollonir replied.

"Are you talking about us?" Dan inquired.

"We have a little proposition." Apollonir suggested. "You help us and we will help you escape the Doom Dimension."

"But first, we must test your metal to see if you are worthy of our challenge." Clayf added.

"Worthy?" Runo echoed.

"Yes, we must put you through a series of tests." Lars Lion replied.

"Our mission is to save and we need your help to leave." Drago added.

"Yeah, so what kind of tests you talking about here?" Dan asked. "And how do you know you're even going to help us if we pass?"

"You can't." Apollonir replied.

"Here's the deal." Dan spoke. "If we help you, we want you to release every single Bakugan that's ever been sent to the Doom Dimension."

"Impossible." Exedra replied.

"But it appears these beings really love their Bakugan." Lars Lion noted. "We must help them. I implore you."

"Princess." Apollonir looked at Eva.

"Very well." Eva replied. "Then it shall be so. All Bakugan shall be released to your dimension."

"Now, let's us commence with your tests. Let's bein, shall we?" she concluded, raising her Cosmo, the flare of light forcing the teens to shield their eyes as the six Elemental power circles appeared under their feet. The stream of rainbow-colored light then shot up into the sky, taking the teens with it and shot into the different Elemental sites.

"Julie!" Gorem called out.

Everyone, I'm counting on you. Eva passed her thoughts to the five future Guardians.

"Julie." Gorem called to his unconscious partner. "Julie! Julie!"

"Huh?" Julie pulled herself up from the sofa. "Gorem! Where are we?"

"It looks like we're back at my house, Gorem." she noted, looking around.

"What's going on?" she asked after hearing laughter in the house. "Huh? And what happened to the others?"

"Oh, I'll just call them on my Baku-pod." she decided and dialed a number.

"I can't get any signal." she fumed as the screen fizzled. "Oh, come on! Get me a line, you stupid thing!"

"Huh? Are you hearing what I'm hearing, Gorem?" she asked.

"This isn't your house, Julie." Gorem told her.

"What?" Julie demanded.

"We're still in the Doom Dimension." Gorem replied.

"Wait, so are you saying all this isn't real, then?" Julie asked.

"Hey, Julie." Daisy greeted her. "What's going on?"

"Oh wow, Daisy." Julie looked at her elder sister.

"Daisy?" Gorem echoed. "Who's Daisy?"

"She's my older sister, that's who." Julie replied.

"Oh Julie, I sure wish you could stop calling me 'older'." Daisy remarked.

"Hey! Guys, it's me!" Tom declared, dressed as an astronaut.

"What?" Julie gaped.

"Oh look, it's Tom." Daisy replied. "What are you wearing?"

"Funny you should ask." Tom replied. "I was just on my way to Mars."

"Okay, will someone please tell me what in the world's going on here?" Julie asked.

"This is an illusion, Julie." Gorem concluded. "I sense Clayf's presence. Therefore, I'll conclude this is one of their tests."

"Are you saying this is all fake?" Julie asked. "That my sister and Tom aren't really real?"

"Julie, how about you and me in a quick Bakugan battle?" Daisy challenged.

"Bakugan?" Julie echoed. "Now, I think I'm starting to get it."

"This shall be your test, Julie." Eva replied, appearing behind Tom. "Win this battle, Gorem. I look forward in seeing your evolution."

"Majesty." Gorem blinked.

Eva remained silent as she pointed her spear at Tom, morphing him into his true form; Clayf, before disappearing.

"Clayf." Gorem remarked.

"You must defeat your sister." Clayf declared, returning to his ball form, which Daisy caught.

"You ready to play, Julie?" Daisy asked, the makeshift house falling apart.

"Gate Card, set!" the two sister tossed their gates cards.

A/N: I'm skipping the Bakugan battle because I know you guys know what happen.

Finally, Julie discovered her own confidence, causing Gorem evolved into Hammer Gorem and defeating Clayf.

Back with Eva...

"Princess, you felt that?" Exedra asked when he sensed a surge of energy from Clayf's domain.

"Yes. Eva nodded. "Finally, one of them has started to evolve."

"Clayf has lost then." Exedra concluded after another sharp surge of energy.

"Indeed." Clayf admitted, transporting back after a while.

"You were right, Princess." he added. "Humans do have the ability to make the impossible, possible."
