Dan: The Bakugan Battle Brawlers in: The Search for Eve, Part 3
"Dan... DAN! Please Dan, wake up!" Said Drago. Dan, hearing his friend's voice, opened his eyes. "Oh, thank goodness, he's awake" said Wavern. "Uh, what just happened?" Asked Dan, noticing he must have fell of Drago, because he was now in Drago's hand. "You fell off Drago like a rock on a mountain, luckily he caught you" said Wavern. "So what happened Dan, did you have another vision?" Asked Drago. "How'd you know?" Asked Dan. "As soon as you tumbled down, your Key glowed as I caught you. At the same time, my Gate glowed" said Drago. Dan began to explain.
"Are you serious? Code Eve lied to us this whole time?" Asked Drago, completely shocked as Dan caught him off guard with this information. "Yup, since the beginning. Man, can't believe we were so blind" said Dan. "I know this is hard, but we have to..." Wavern was saying, but she stopped suddenly. She looked toward the entrance of the cave with fear in her eyes. "Wavern, what's wrong?" Asked Drago. "It's them... the evil Bakugan. I feel them outside" said Wavern. The group went toward the entrance of the cave and peeked out to see a gruesome scene.
(AN: WARNING! Blood and gore ARE in the next scene. For readers' with stomach issues, please read on with caution)
What they saw would anybody nightmares or worse, night-terrors. They saw a Subterra Brachiosaur dead on its side with some Bakugan eating its insides (the back of the dead Bakugan is facing the cave). A blood-covered head of a Ventus Ventoraptor appeared, swallowing its meal and dove back in. Other Ventorators' in all Attributes were there, either waiting on their turn or fighting for a turn. To the left of the Brachiosaur corpse, there was another dead Subterra Brachiosaur being eaten by Griffons' (Pyrus and Haos). And to the right of the center corpse, there was a third Subterra one, this time a smaller one, most likely a baby. The young Subterra Brachiosaur was almost completely ripped apart (and of course, being eaten) by a group of Terrorclaws' (Aquos and Pyrus).
"Aw, think I'm gonna be sick" said Dan, holding his mouth. "This is... awful" said Drago. "I know, this is what happens, almost on a daily basis" said Wavern. "No to should rude, but isn't there like a food chain or something?" Asked Dan. "Yes, but not like this. This is just... wrong" said Drago. The group went back inside the cave, not wanting the see anything else like that. When suddenly, Dan and Drago's Gate and Key began to glow. "What's... happening?" Asked Drago. "I don't know pal... but something's coming" said Dan, as the Gate and Key parted from their owners and fused together, exactly how Dan and Drago were saved from the Dark Moon. The Gate and Key then disappeared, revealing Razenoid! "Huh? Where am I now? Dan, Drago?" Asked Razenoid, not knowing what just happened. "Long story short: we came to New Vestroia to find Code Eve, Mag Mel told us that there's a way to find her and now you show up" said Dan. "Mag Mel? What did he say? Is he ok?" Asked Razenoid, kinda loud. "Shhhhhh! There's evil Bakugan outside, they might hear you" said Wavern. "Hey, no Attribute-less Bakugan tells me what to do! [Whispers to Drago] Who's the white trash?" said Razenoid. "That 'White Trash', would be my girlfriend" growled Drago, causing Razenoid to sweat-drop.
Wavern's fears came true, although the Bakugan didn't hear anything, a Pyrus Griffon was napping after its fill and a bright light (the Gate and Key) from the cave woke it up. Roaring to its pack (or pride, as they are a group of lions'), they went in to investigate a possible meal. Of course, the Terrorclaws' and Ventoraptors' didn't want to pass up dessert, so they followed the Griffons' inside.
