The 3rd part of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Runo meets Shrek

The carriage moved on for several miles, and Shrek looked out the window, with a worried look on his face. Runo caught some sleep, with Tigrerra in ball form on her shoulder. Fiona smiled when she saw her, but frowned when she looked at Shrek.

"Are we there yet?" Donkey asked, getting on Shrek's nerves.

"No." Shrek answered. Soon, it was the same thing over and over again. Donkey kept on asking the same question, which made Fiona and Shrek grow even more irritated.

"Are we there yet?" Donkey asked again.

"NO!" Shrek and Fiona screamed, which woke Runo up. Stretching out her arms, Tigrerra opened up.

"Man. What's wrong with them?" Runo asked.

"Ask Donkey." said Fiona.

"Are we there yet?" asked Donkey, with Shrek copying him.

"Hey, that's not funny," Donkey said, and again, Shrek copied him.

"That's really immature! See, this is why nobody likes ogres! Ok, your loss!" they both said.

"I'm just going to stop talking," Donkey said.

"Finally!" Shrek said.

"But this is taking forever, Shrek. There's no in-flight movie or anything!" Donkey complained.

"Donkey, that's why the kingdom is called Far Far Away. It's far, far away!" said Runo.

"Runo's right. Just find some way to entertain yourself to past the time." said Tigrerra.

Donkey sighed, thinking of something to do. An idea crept into his mind, and made popping sounds. First one, a second one, and then a third one. This made Shrek and Fiona more irritated, but Runo and Tigrerra just laughed.

"For five minutes…could you not be yourself, for five minutes!" Shrek boomed.

Fiona looked out, and Donkey made another popping noise with his mouth.

"AAAH! ARE WE THERE YET?" Shrek screamed, losing his patience.

"Yes!" Fiona.

"Finally!" Runo said, looking out the window. They came to the city entrance, and pretty soon, they were officially in the kingdom of Far Far Away.

Donkey was amazed by the whole scenery. There were people hustling and bustling in the streets, and the castle was not far from them. Runo pointed out some shops, showing Tigrerra. Donkey went on about what would happen. Fiona was just as happy as Runo and Donkey, but Shrek was not.

"We are definitely not in the swamp anymore," he said.

People started to follow the carriage, immediately recognizing it as the return of the princess. Fiona looked at Shrek, who was not so happy. Putting a comforting hand on his arm, Shrek started to cheer up.

The carriage pulled into the castle's entrance, and made a complete stop. Hundreds of people were out in the middle of the entrance, cheering at the sign of the return. On the castle stairs, a king and queen were eagerly waiting for Fiona and her husband, "Prince Charming".

"Announcing the long awaited return of Princess Fiona and her new husband!" said an announcer. Everyone began to cheer.

"Well, this is it." Fiona said.

The carriage door opened, and Fiona, Shrek, and Runo stepped out. A man opened a box and doves flew out, but everyone stopped cheering. Everyone gasped when they saw Fiona and Shrek. Runo looked around awkwardly.

"Uh…why don't you guys go on ahead? I'd better help Donkey park the cart," she said. She hopped inside the carriage and took off, leaving Shrek and Fiona alone.

"Who on Earth are they? And who was that girl?" the king asked.

"I don't know who that one girl was, but I think that green one is our little girl," said the queen.

"That's not our daughter, that's a big problem! She was suppose to kiss Prince Charming and break the spell!" said the king.

"Harold!" said the queen.

Shrek, Fiona, and the king and queen came face-to-face.

"Mom, dad," Fiona said, giving her parents a welcoming hug.

"I'd like you to meet my husband, Shrek. Shrek, these are my parents," said Fiona.

"Well, it's easy to see where Fiona gets her good looks from!" said Shrek. King Harold and the queen, Lillian, just stared at him.

Shrek smiled nervously, but frowned when he was lead into the castle to the dining hall. Shrek sat across from a visibly angry King Harold, while Fiona sat across Queen Lillian.

"Uh, hey guys!" Runo walked inside. The king and queen looked at her.

"Sorry I'm late. I had trouble finding the dining room," said Runo, pulling a seat next to Fiona.

"Hello, young lady. Who are you?" Queen Lillian asked.

"Oh, my name's Runo. It's very nice to meet you!" Runo introduced herself.

"Oh, look here. Our daughter's an ogre, but her little friend is human," said King Harold.

"Harold!" said Queen Lillian.

"Is that a problem?" asked Runo.

"Oh, no, no. Not at all," said King Harold. Runo gave him a dirty look as she scooted herself closer to the table. Pretty soon, Donkey came inside.

"Hey, what's up, everybody? Thanks for waiting. I had the hardest time finding this place," said Donkey.

"No, bad donkey! Down!" said King Harold.

"Dad, it's ok! He's with us," said Fiona.

"Yup! He sure is!" said Runo, with a nervous smile.

Shrek groaned and slurped his soup.

"Uh, Shrek…" Fiona started.

"Oh! Great soup, Mrs. Q!" said Shrek, rubbing his tummy. Fiona shook her head and put her hands in the bowl, which was filled with water.

Shrek's eyes widened as he laughed nervously.

"So, Fiona, tell us about where you live," said Queen Lillian.

"Well, Shrek owns his own land. Don't you, honey?" Fiona asked.

"Oh, yes! It's abundant in squirrels and cute little duckies…" Shrek started.

"What? Are you really telling them about the swamp?" Runo asked.

"Runo!" Shrek snapped.

"An ogre from a swamp?" asked King Harold, not surprised. Runo quickly took a huge spoon full of soup and slurped it in her mouth, which made her cheeks puff out.

"I suppose it'd be a fine place to raise children," Queen Lillian said. Shrek, shocked, swallowed his spoon, and King Harold spit out his drink. Shrek coughed until the spoon finally came out.

"It's a bit early to think about that," said Shrek.

"Indeed. I just started eating," King Harold said.

"Harold!" Queen Lillian snapped.

"What's that suppose to mean?" Shrek asked.

"Dad, it's great, ok?" Fiona asked.

"Well maybe for his type, that is!" King Harold said.

"My type?" snapped Shrek.

"Uh, I've got to go to the bathroom," Donkey said, about to leave the room.

"Me too." said Runo. However, the chefs from the kitchen came out, carrying huge plates of food.

"Dinner is served!" the head chef said.

"Never mind! We can hold it," said Runo.

"Bon appetite." the chefs all disappeared back into the kitchen.

"Let's not sit around with our tummies grumbling, everybody dig in!" said Queen Lillian/

"Don't mind if I do, your highness." said Runo. She was about to take the plate with the lobster, but King Harold took it from her.

"So for children, I'd expect…" started King Harold.

"Ogres, yes!" snapped Shrek.

"How about that basketball! Go Patriots," said Runo.

"Runo, that's football!" Tigrerra said.

"I panicked!" said Runo.

Suddenly, King Harold and Shrek broke into a huge argument. Shrek grabbed the turkey, and began angrily chomping in. Food flew everywhere. Both angrily got up from the table and grabbed the roasted pig in the middle of the table. Fiona begged her mom to do something, and the pig landed in front of the table with a slam! The whole dining room was a mess.

Fiona angrily got up from the table, and angrily exited the room. Runo got up and followed her out.

"Fiona, wait!" Runo said, rushing to her side. They both entered Fiona's room, with Fiona angrily closed the door. Runo and Tigrerra looked at each other and followed the princess to the balcony.

A tear fell from Fiona's face, and Runo patted her on the back. Suddenly, out of nowhere, bubbles began to appear around them. Tigrerra grew curious, and a bubble caught her. Runo giggled and popped it, with Tigrerra landing in her hands.

"Your fallen tears have called to me. So here comes my sweet remedy. I know what every princess needs, for her to live life happily." sang a voice.

Suddenly, a fairy, wearing a blue dress and had her hair up, floated down. The bubble popped, and the fairy gasped.

"Oh, my dear. Look at you, you're all…grown up." the fairy said.

"Who are you?" Runo asked.

"Oh, my dear sweet child. I'm your Fairy Godmother," said the fairy.

"I'm not the one you're looking for." said Runo, pointing. Fairy Godmother looked at Fiona.

"I have a fairy godmother?" asked Fiona.

"Shush. Don't worry, dear, I'm here to make it all better!" said Fairy Godmother with a smile. They both entered the room, and Runo quickly ran inside.

Something told Runo that something strange was going on.
