by SkylanderZilla

Judai Yamato was a new brawler in town, when one day after finding a talking Bakugan named Leonidas. the two found themselves as they both are thrusted into a wild and crazy adventure as they Join the Bakugan Battle Brawlers to help save both Earth and Vestroia (OC X Harem) (Rating could be changed in the future)

14. Rendezvous with Anna

Disclaimer: I don't own Bakugan

---

Not long after the Brawlers defeated Daisy, Billy, and Komba, they were Confronted by a girl named Vivian who had unleashed an unknown Bakugan called Megalosmasher. The brawlers only watched in fear as the Bakugan's shadow covered them.

"Anyone finding it odd that she summoned a Bakugan outside the drome and card dimension?" Dan asked in fear.

"I would if I wasn't more concerned about how it's looking at all of us like a hungry animal," Judai said, feeling every instinct in him telling him to run.

Buster, who is usually brave, was whimpering in fear backing away from Megalosmasher, while Komodo was behind Buster's legs and also scared.

"M-Must ba-battle. Must Des-Destroy.." Megalosmasher growled as he leered down at the brawlers glaring at them.

"I think that's our sign to RUN!" Preyas yelled, jumping into Marucho's pocket

Not wasting time, the Brawlers ran as fast as their legs could take them as Megalosmasher flew through the air as if he was swimming through water.

"Hahahaha, now this is entertainment. Mother will be very pleased." Vivian laughed, ready to enjoy the show that was about to happen.

As they ran away, Shun looked around and saw a boulder that was barely being held in place up ahead of them. "Head for that boulder!" Shun shouted.

The others did so and ran at the boulder, and they saw a small opening to a cave. "This gap is wide enough for us to enter. Everyone inside." Shun said, pointing at the craves.

Runo, Julie, and Eva entered first, followed by Marucho, Dan, Buster, and Komodo. Judai and Shun turned to see Megalosmasher speeding toward them. Shun quickly squeezed inside and finally Judai as the Bakugan smashed into the side of the rocks, causing the cave to shake from the force rocks began to fall, causing the brawlers to cover their heads.

Megalosmasher continued to smash against the cave's entrance hoping to get to them, roaring in rage at not being able to get his prey. Eventually, Megalosmasher decided to leave the group alone, leaving the Brawlers in peace for now.

"Safe to say we aren't going out that way," Julie said in relief.

"Now the question is, how do we get out here?" Runo asked.

"We have to look for an air current because if there's another exit, our best way is to find it," Judai said.

The other nodded and began to look around for an air current in hopes of finding an escape.

"As far I can tell, we're sandwiched," Dan said, not really seeing a way out.

"We gotta keep trying, Dan," Marucho told him.

Preyas and Skyress bounced along the side of the cave, Drago and Tigrerra rolled along the other side. However, Gorem just stood still on the ground.

"I found a way out," Gorem said.

"Really, Gorem?" Julie asked.

"How do you know?" Runo asked.

"I am a Subterra Bakugan. I have the innate ability to feel out of the earth element." Gorem explained. "And there is an alternate way out, in the back of the cave."

"Oh, Gorem, you are the greatest!" Julie exclaimed, picking up Gorem and nuzzling him against her cheek.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go." Dan said, ready to leave.

"Wait, Dan, we need a plan, or that Bakugan will simply run us down cause we can't outrun it in the long term so we need to figure out how to escape it permanently." Eva said

"Do you know anything about him, Nillious?" Judai asked.

"No, I've never seen a Bakugan like him in all my life," Nillious answered.

"But did he seem weird to any of you?" Shun asked, getting the others' attention.

"What do you mean, Shun?" Runo asked.

"That Bakugan seemed to struggle to speak as if it was foreign to him and acted more like an animal acting on instincts than an intelligent battling Bakugan," Shun said, crossing his arms.

"Now that you mentioned it, I noticed the same thing." Judai frowned.

"An unknown Bakugan struggling to speak and acting on animalistic instincts?" Marucho questioned, trying to figure it out.

"Look, we should worry about how he acts later. We should be finding a way to escape him when we get out." Dan said.

"Not just him, that Vivian girl," Julie said. "There's something creepy about her, and not just the way she eyed me."

"We'll worry about her later. Right now we need to find a way out and get some distance from them." Shun said in a firm tone, with the others nodding in agreement.

---

Outside the cave, Vivian crossed her arms, annoyed and impatient. The brawlers had taken shelter in the caves, and Megalosmasher couldn't get to them.

"Damn, Brawlers, you can't hide from me," Vivian said as she took out Bakupod. "Let's see where you all are," she asked as her Bakupod picked up the location of the brawler's Bakupods, mainly Dan and Marucho's. Alisa had instructed both Yuuko and Shouko to implant tracking chips into their son's Bakupods while they slept. Vivian smirked, knowing where they were heading.

---

At that time, the Brawlers were traversing the cave system with the guidance of Gorem. Buster was sniffing along the ground. They then came to a large cavern. It had rock formations, cliffs, and several other caves that led to other areas.

"It feels like we've been walking for hours," Dan stated. "Are you sure we're going the right way, Gorem?" it felt like they were going in circles. They didn't know where to go.

"Yes, it'll be a while before getting to the exit," Gorem answered.

"My Gorem is so smart. He'll get us through this." Julie smiled.

Runo looked around. It was strange. It was like something was watching them. "Don't you guys have the feeling like we're being watched?" Runo asked the other.

"What are you talking about, woman?" Leonidas growled

"No, I also feel someone watching us," Nillious commented. "Do any of you feel it?" Nillious asked

"Now that you mention it, yeah," Julie admitted.

"Oh, it's spooky down here. I wish we were back in the bright warm sun." Preyas whimpered in fear.

"Suck it up and be a Bakugan," Eenoch growled.

Shun looked around he looked at his ninja senses were telling him that they were right. Something is watching them. "We're not alone. Something is here." Shun said, turning around

"Ahh!" a scream was heard, causing the brawlers to jump in surprise.

They turned to where it was heard the scream. The gang saw Komodo chasing a Haos Bakugan, trying to eat it. "Get away, you beast, get away!" the Bakugan shouted in fear,

"A Bakugan…" Dan said.

"That explains why it felt like we felt like we were being watched," Marucho said.

"Komodo, stop it's not food," Eva called out as she ran after Komodo.

Komodo ignored Eva as he continued to chase the Bakugan, trying to eat her.

"Buster, stop Komodo, would ya," Judai asked.

Buster howled as he ran after Komodo and the Bakugan. Komodo was about to catch the Bakugan when Buster caught up and placed his paw on the Komodo Dragon's back, putting his weight down and stopping him in his tracks. Komodo hissed in anger, trying to get free.

"Good boy, Buster." Eva smiled before she turned to the Haos Bakugan, who stopped running. "Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I've seen many creatures in the cave, but that one is new." the Bakugan said.

"Sorry about Komodo. He can be a bit of a handful." Eva apologized. "My name is Eva, and this is my partner Eenoch."

"It's nice to meet you. My name is Pegatrix." Pegatrix introduced herself.

"Like I said, you can find lots of Bakugan here," Julie said as she and others walked over to Eva.

"Who are you all?" Pegatrix asked.

"My name is Dan, and this is Drago." Dan introduced himself and Drago.

"Nice to meet you," Drago said.

"My name is Runo, and this is my partner Tigrerra." Runo introduced herself.

"It's nice to meet a fellow Haos Bakugan," Tigrerra said.

"Likewise," Pegatrix replied.

"My name is Julie, and this is my sweet Bakugan Gorem." Julie introduced herself and Gorem.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." Gorem said,

"It's a pleasure to meet you as well." Pegatrix said

"I'm Shun, and this is Skyress." Shun introduced himself and Skyress.

"It's nice to meet you, Pegatrix." Skyress greeted.

"You too, Skyress," Pegatrix replied.

"And I'm Eva's brother Judai, and these are my partners Leonidas and Nillious." Judai introduced himself and his partners.

"Nice to meet you," Nillious said.

"Hmph." Leonidas just huffed.

"Rude, aren't you?" Pegatrix said, not liking Leonidas' attitude.

"So Pegatrix, are you the only Bakugan in this area?" Julie asked.

"Nah, there are few of us spread out here and there. Some of my friends are in this cavern." Pegatrix answered. "By the way, brings you humans this deep into the cave?"

"It's kinda a long story," Judai answered.

"Well, I have nowhere to go." Pegatrix said, willing to listen.

With that, the brawlers began to explain from the Infinity Core to the state of Vestroia, along with the battles with Daisy, Billy, and Komba and having to run from a Bakugan called Megalosmasher, which like the other Bakugan Pegatrix had never heard of Megalomasher at all but continued to listen.

"And that's why we're stuck down here," Marucho said, finishing the story.

"Vestroia is destroying itself?!" Pegatrix said, shocked hearing the state of her home. "Hmm, this must be really bad."

"Yes, and we need to find the Infinity Core before Naga does," Drago said.

"But first, we need to get out of this cave," Shun said.

"Pegatrix do you know where the exit is?" Eva asked.

"Hmm, not really," Pegatrix answered. "But maybe one of my friends will know. We have a good tunnel network."

Pegatrix then neighed loudly. It echoed throughout the caves. Just then, a few Bakugan rolled over to them. They were one of each attribute, 7 in all.

"You need something, Pegatrix?" the Darkus Bakugan asked.

All of them opened up. The Bakugan opened up, revealing themselves. The Pyrus Bakugan was Rattleoid. The Aquos was Robotallion, Haos was Juggernoid, the Subterra a Laserman, Ventus Fear Ripper, a Darkus Hynoid, and finally a new Bakugan they'd never seen before, but it looked very similar to Juggernoid.

"What do you need, young whippersnappers?" the golden Bakugan asked, its voice like that of a wise old man.

"We need help getting out of this cave," Judai asked. "Do you know a way out?" he asked.

"Oh me, me, I know the way out!" The Haos Juggernoid said in a hyperactive voice.

"Come yourself, young turtle." the golden Bakugan said. "Oh, sorry, I didn't get to introduce myself, my Species is called Turtonium, but you can call me Trace."

"It's nice to meet yea, Trace." Drago said.

"We've been in this cave for a long time and know it like the back of our hand." the Ventus Fear Ripper said. "The exit is that one," he said, turning to his left.

"Thanks," Dan said.

"We'll personally escort you to the, but we must warn you that there are dangers down that path to beware," Trace told the brawlers.

"Thanks, we really appreciate it," Judai said.

"It's the least we can do after you saved Peggy." the Darkus Hynoid said.

"Peggy? Really?" Leonidas asked.

"Oh, shut it. It's better than being called Leonidas. I mean, you don't even look like a lion." Pegatrix said.

"Yeah… but my name is cooler." Leonidas countered.

Pegatrix just turned away, not bothering to reply.

The exchange between the two Bakugan made a lot of the group either smile or laughed at their back and forth, almost like a brother and sister arguing. Even Shun couldn't help but smile.

'It's like watching Judai and Eva go at it.' Nillous thought.

"Well, let's get moving. I ain't getting any younger." Trace said as he hopped onto Judai's left shoulder.

Pegatrix hopped onto Eva's shoulder, Hynoid on Dan's with Juggernoid. Fear Ripper on Julies, Laserman on Marucho's, and Robotallian on Shun's.

"Now, just head down the tunnel on the left." Trace told Judai.

Judai nodded as he and the others walked down the tunnel. As they walked through, they walked for about 10 minutes passing by the hazards along the way narrow passages and unstable floors, which Dan almost fell through. Luckily Shun caught him before they continued. Then they came to a large cavern that had a huge pit with a narrow path crossing over to the other side.

"Oh boy, that's not good." Dan said, looking at the path.

"Umm, guys, why is the floor moving?" Runo asked, looking into the pit.

Judai took out a flashlight and shined it into the pit; his eyes widened slightly at the sight of thousands of rattlesnakes at the bottom hissing. "Snakes… Why did it have to be Snakes?" Judai uttered as he sat down and sighed.

"Is there no other way around this?" Julie asked Trace.

"No, this is the only way back to the surface. Since we are in our ball forms, we can walk along without a problem, but that narrow walkway can only support one human at a time." Trace answered.

"Oh, that's just great." Runo said, irritated.

"Looks like we have no choice." Shun said as he looked at Marucho and Eva. "Marucho, you and Eva are the lightest of us, so you both go first."

Marucho looked down into the pit and gulped. "Ok…" he said.

"You're not really thinking of it, right?" Preyas asked, completely nervous.

"We have no choice Preyas." Marucho uttered though scared about falling in. Eva placed her hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry. I'll be right behind you." Eva told Marucho, at least giving him a little relief.

The short blond boy took a deep breath as he slowly stepped onto the path. The small cracks of the rocks fell into the pit, causing the snakes to look up and hiss at him, causing Marucho to freeze up for a second, looking down into the pit.

"C-come on, Marucho, j-just one step at a time." Preyas uttered in fear.

"Yeah, just don't look down." Laserman said with a computerized voice.

Marucho composed himself and nodded as he continued to walk across. After what seemed like forever, Marucho finally reached the other side. "Ahhh…." Marucho sighed in relief before turning back to the others, giving them a weak thumbs up.

The others, even Shun to some degree, sighed in relief. "Alright sis, be careful." Judai warned

Eva nodded. "No need to tell me twice." she said as she began to walk across slowly, not bothering to look into the pit, and soon made it to the other side, which Marucho patted her back, congratulating her.

Soon the others followed, Runo, Julie, Dan, and Shun, who carried Buster. "Alright, Judai, you and Komodo are the last ones." Dan called out.

Judai sighed. He looked over to Komodo, who just glared at him. "Look, I know you don't like to be carried, but we have no choice." Judai said as he picked up Komodo, who just hissed at Judai but luckily for the oldest Yamato Sibling, the baby lizard didn't struggle to get free or have some of the rattlesnakes for lunch.

Judai began to walk across the narrow bridge, and his balance was alittle off since he was carrying Komodo along the way. As he reached the halfway mark, the rocks began to loosen underneath his feet. To everyone's shock, the path behind Judai began to fall apart.

"Judai, run!" Eva shouted in fear.

Not needing a second thought, Judai ran as fast as he could, with the bridge falling apart as he ran.

"Come, Judai. You're almost there!" Dan called out.

"Keep running!" Julie shouted in fear.

"You're almost there!" Runo exclaimed.

"Come on!" Shun yelled.

As he got close, the ground in front of him gave away, Judai's eyes widened, and in a swift move, he tossed Komodo at Eva, who caught the small lizard but fell back as Judai fell into the pit.

"Judai!" Dan shouted as he and the others rushed to the edge.

They looked down and saw Judai holding on to dear life from a small ledge. Eva got up and joined the others, but she frowned.

"Damn it, Judai, what are you doing down there?" Eva shouted in anger.

Judai just glared at Eva. "Getting a nice eye full up Runo's skirt!" Judai shouted, not happy at his situation.

Runo glared at him and pushed her skirt against her legs. "You pervert!" Runo shouted in disgust.

"Please, like I want to look at you." Judai scoffed. "But seriously, help."

"Serious, we're dangling for our lives," Leonidas said.

Shun took out a rope he had brought along just in case and tossed it down to Judai, who grabbed it with one hand before letting go of the ledge and gripping it with the other. Shun and Dan held the rope as Judai climbed up, as he reached them. He bent down at the knees and sighed.

"God, it feels like I walked right in the middle of one of my treasure-hunting movies," Judai said, taking a few deep breaths.

"Don't scare me like that again," Eva told him, relieved that her brother was alright.

"Me either," Julie uttered.

"What about us?" Nillous asked.

"You younging barely care about your elders, don't cha?" Trace uttered.

"Sorry." Eva apologized.

"It's a relief everyone is alright," Drago said. "But we must leave this place."

"Agreed, young Dragonoid." Trace nodded in agreement. "The way out is close. Just another 15 minutes, and we'll be on the surface."

"Alright, let's not waste anymore time," Judai said, looking down at the pit one more time before the group left.

---

Outside the Caves was Vivian, who was tracking the brawler's movements through the caves. She had been tracking them for about an hour after they entered the cave, and it seemed they were heading west.

"Hmm, they are heading west. I wonder if they found a way out?" Vivian questioned while leaning on her motorbike.

"Kill.. enemies…" Megalosmasher growled.

Vivian glanced at Megalosmasher. "Don't worry. You'll get your prey soon." Vivian said as she hopped onto her bike, revving it up before driving in the direction of the Brawler's signals.

---

Back with the brawlers who were walking up a steep path, Judai stopped for a moment getting the other's attention.

"What's wrong, Judai? Need a break?" Dan asked. It would be understandable since he nearly fell to his death not long ago.

"No, not really." Judai said, "Just wondering how that girl found us so fast."

"Hmm, maybe she noticed the drome when we were battling Daisy and the others?" Julie suggested.

"Maybe." Judai said before he did something crazy, he took off his Bakupod and with inhuman savage strength that surprised everyone crushed his Bakupod.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Runo demanded, taken aback by Judai crushing his Bakupod.

"Judai, why did you crush your Bakupod? They don't come cheap you know?" Eva said,

"Why would you do that, Judai?" Nillious said, confused.

"I think we're being tracked down," Judai said. "Call it animal instinct."

Nillious understanding Judai's words back down. "Understood."

"Are you saying that she's tracking us through our Bakupods?" Dan said, not believing what he was hearing.

"Is that even possible?" Runo questioned.

"Oh boy, we've been hacked!" Preyas panicking.

"Calm down, Preyas," Drago said.

"Panicking isn't going to anything," Tigrerra commented.

"I say it is possible if you have the technology you can hack into a Bakupod and install tracking software, or it can be installed by putting something inside," Marucho explained.

Shun frowned, taking his Bakupod off and crushed it without effort, shocking everyone but Judai.

"Shun…" Dan uttered.

"If that's the case, we should get rid of them," Shun told everyone.

"Don't worry, I'll get us new ones once we get out of here," Marucho told them.

Eva nodded and like Judai and Shun, took hers off and stomped on her Bakupod, breaking it into pieces. Dan, Runo, and Julie took off their Bakupods and stomped on them, breaking them into pieces.

"And that's that. Now let's get out of here." Judai said.

---

Vivian growled as the signals vanished from her screen. "Damn! The signals gone!" she was seething. The BakuPod she had was modified to track their position no matter how deep underground they were, and if the signals vanished, then it meant only one thing. "Those fools must have figured out I was tracking them, Damn! I can't let them escape. I have to beat them and bring the girls to mother!" Vivian growled, now having to race them there. She was not going to fail. Not only would her mother be displeased, but the others wouldn't let her live it down, especially Leona and Mei Ling.

---

After what seemed like forever, the gang were met with sunlight emanating from an opening in the cave. Their faces lit finally. They were going to get out of the cave.

"Daylight!" Dan shouted.

"Finally, we can get out of this damn cave!" Julie smiled brightly.

"Thanks for your help for guiding us out of the cave," Judai told Trace.

"Your welcome, sonny," Trace said.

"It's about time if you ask me," Leonidas growled. "Couldn't stand being near that prissy pony."

"And I'm glad to be rid of that dick of a dragon." Pegatrix remarked. "I've always wanted to see the sunshine, and the world, though."

"Then why don't you go with them?" Trace offered.

Pegatrix gasped in surprise. "B-but, elder Trace, are you sure?" Pegatrix asked

Trace nodded. "Young Bakuling, you aren't being held here. I say go out and see the world and experience what it has to offer, and I believe these humans will be the ones to show you."

"Really?" Pegatix uttered, unsure how to feel.

"We could use the extra hoofs if you don't mind Leonidas's attitude," Eva smirked.

"Hey!" Leonidas growled.

"Then I'll join!" Pegatrix said.

"Way a go, Peggy. You finally get to travel the world." Hynoid congratulated his friend.

"Take care," Laserman said.

"Don't forget to write," Juggernoid said.

"She couldn't write anyway." Fear Ripper said.

Trace then looked at Drago. "Drago, if you restore Vestroia, I would you to do something for me."

"Sure, what is it you wish for me to do?" Asked Drago.

"If you ever meet an old feline called Nova Lion, tell him that ol' Trace says hi, alright?" Trace asked.

Drago gasped. He knew Nova Lion was one of the oldest and wisest in Vestroia, but how could Trace even know him? "I know him. I even talked to him once in a while. But how do you know him?" asked Drago.

Trace just chuckled. "I can't tell you, but when you see old Nova, he'll probably inform you."

"Very well." Drago nodded. He honestly wanted to know but decided to drop it for now.

"Thanks, young Dragonoid," Trace said as he and other cave Bakugan hopped off the brawler's shoulders. "Good luck and may fortune smile on your journey." and with that, they rolled away back into the cave.

"Great, we're stuck with a prissy little pony princess." Leonidas muttered,

"Well, you're not exactly a prince charming lizard lips." Pegatrix countered.

"Can both of you please behave until we get on the ship? Please." Nillious asked, his patience being stretched thin.

"I'm not sure how far we are from the ship. I'll call Kato and tell him to lock onto our location with my phone." Marucho said.

"Good idea, and tell him to make it double time. We don't know how far Vivian is." Eva said.

Marucho nodded and pulled out his phone, and dialed Kato's number. "Hello, Kato. We got a little sidetracked. Can you pick up my phone's GPS location and come pick us up? Thanks." Marucho said as he hung up.

"Kato has our signal. He'll be here in a few minutes." Marucho told everyone.

"I hope he gets here soon. The desert sun does a number on my skin." Runo said.

"Too true, girlfriend." Julie agreed. Even though she grew up near Bakugan Valley, she knew how the desert heat affected a girl's skin.

Luckily there wasn't any sign of Vivian or her Bakugan, and Kato finally arrived, landing just near them. "Sorry for the delay, master Marucho." Kato politely apologized.

"No need to apologize. I'm glad you're here," Marucho replied.

Soon they all boarded the plane before taking off. As they did, Vivian arrived to see them leaving.

"Fuck!" Vivian cursed, throwing her helmet onto the ground and breaking the lens.

"Is the pampered princess having a tantrum?" a familiar voice spoke up.

Vivian turned around and saw Mei Ling standing on her partner Bakugan Serpillious's head. Mei Ling had her arms crossed and was looking quite smug.

"What are you doing here?" Vivian growled, not pleased seeing Mei Ling.

"Enjoying you fail, like I knew you would." Mei Ling retorted, jumping off Serpillious.

"Quiet bitch!" Vivian exclaimed, swinging her right arm. "I would have succeeded if it wasn't for them slipping into a cavern!"

Mei Ling just gave a smirk. "And yet you still failed. Mother will be disappointed with this."

"You want a fight bitch?" Vivian asked.

Mei Ling just waved her hand. "As much I loved to knock you down a few pegs, I have better things to do," she said, not even threatened.

"And what's that?" Vivian demanded only for Mei Ling to toss a rectangular device at her, which she caught. The device was slightly bigger than her Bakupod, with three buttons spaced out of the bottom with a screen above them. The screen showed a red dot moving fast.

"While you were just fooling around, I planted a tracking device on their plane." Mei Ling informed.

Vivian looked at the screen, and her eyes widened. "Are you kidding me? They're heading for that woman." Vivian stated"

"It makes sense to get more information. Who else but mother would know about what could possibly be happening." Mei Ling said.

"Well? How am I supposed to get there fast enough?" Vivian asked.

Mei Ling just gave her a blank state as if the answer was obvious.

"You got to be fucking kidding me," Vivian said, hating that she had to rely on Mei Ling to transport her to Anna's place. That means Alisa must have ordered Mei Ling to give her backup when she had left the mansion.

"Now, if you're done with your sissy fit, let's get going." Mei Ling said, turning her back to Vivian, who just growled at Mei Ling's disrespect.

'When we catch up to them, I'll finish what I started. And mother will praise me.' Vivian thought,

---

"Oh boy, I'm glad to be out of that place," Dan said with his head back.

"Indeed," Eva said,

"Well, I just can't wait to see Anna and Maria again." Judai smiled. "It's been so long since I've last seen them."

"Yeah, I just wish Alice was here so she could see them," Eva said. She knew Alice would be a little angry at Anna since she also hid the truth about Gray's death, but Alice would need to talk to her family members sooner or later. Anna, Maria, and Yamato would help.

"Yeah." Judai nodded in agreement.

"Where do they live?" Runo asked.

"Near Mt. Fuji, and if I remember correctly, I think there are ruins nearby." Judai said, remembering what Alice had told him before Micheal turned into Hal G.

"How long would it take for us to reach Mt Fuji?" Shun asked.

"About maybe 2 or 3 hours at top speed," Marucho answered.

"I'll let Maria know we'll be coming," Judai said as he took out his smartphone and contacted her.

"And I'm going to call my parents where I am," Julie said. She didn't tell them she would be leaving with her friends. And if she didn't call them, they would thrash her. She took her smartphone and left the room.

{Hello?} Maria asked from her end.

{Hey Maria, it's Judai.} Judai said

{Judai? It's great to hear from you. How's your family?} Maria asked.

{They're fine. Mom and Dad are on an expedition while me, Eva, and Buster are with the other brawlers.} Judai replied,

{The Bakugan battle brawlers? Is Alice with you guys? Can I speak to her?} Maria asked

{That's currently impossible, I'm afraid.} Judai said

{Impossible? Did you and Eva leave her at the store?} Maria asked.

{No, it's not that. Listen, it's currently family matters, I'm afraid.} Judai said before hanging up.

Shun just watched Judai before closing his eyes. He knew Judai and Eva were hiding something from them. He didn't know what, but it seemed important; however, he decided to put it aside for now.

---

(Himesato Mansion: Mt Fuji)

3 hours later, Maria had informed her parents about Judai and the other's arrival. The three stood in the field where their plane would land. The sun began to set as they were waiting for the brawlers to arrive.

"They should be here soon." Yamato said, looking at his watch.

Maria looked up and saw the plane moving over them. "I think that's them." Maria said as she pointed upward.

The family watched as the craft began to descend, creating strong gusts as well as kicking up dirt clouds. The family of three covered their faces from the wind and dirt.

"Well, they certainly know how to make an entrance." Anna commented while coughing.

"You got that right." Maria added.

As the plane touched down, the engines died down and the hatch opened revealing the battle brawlers alongside Buster and Komodo. The brawlers exited the plane and stood before the family.

"Hey, you three, long time no see." Judai said.

"Welcome to our humble home, all of you." Yamato said, looking at the kids. Buster and a baby Komodo Dragon? "I see Shin and Lucy finally got you a Komodo Dragon Eva."

"Yep, and he's cool." Eva answered.

"You two have grown since I last saw you." Anna smiled.

"Thanks, Anna." Judai replied before gesturing to the others. "These are the Battle Brawlers."

"No need to tell us who they are, Alice told us." Yamato said. "Dan, Runo, Marucho, Julie, and Shun, right?"

"Yep, that's us, and I have to say, nice digs." Julie said, loving the sight of their home.

"Thanks. We try to keep it in some shape." Anna said. "My name is Anna, Alice's Aunt." Anna introduced herself. "This is my husband, Yamato."

"Nice to meet you all. Alice talks about you all alot." Yamato said.

"And our daug-" Anna didn't get to finish as both Dan and Marucho rushed in front of Maria.

"You're Maria. We're big fans of your work!" Dan exclaimed.

"Yeah, I own many of your songs. One of my personal favorites is Shooting Star." Marucho exclaimed.

Maria just chuckled. "Thanks. To tell you the truth, It's one of my favorites as well." Maria smiled. It was nice to meet fans once in a while.

"Can you two stop fawning and remember why we are here!" Runo shouted.

"Yes, I can imagine you all aren't just here for a visit. Let me guess… my sister?" Anna asked, stepping a few feet away.

"In a way, yes, but let's head inside and catch up to speed," Judai said, knowing this was going to be long.

Anna turned to Yamato, who nodded. She gestured for the brawlers to follow them into the house, and soon they all entered.

Inside, the group were sitting in the living room. It had a wide 4K plasma-screen TV attached to the wall and two large couches. Both connected a few feet from the TV over a rust-colored rug. On the side of the TV were shelves that had pictures of the family along with photos of Alice's family with them in them.

"This is a great place," Julie said, observing the room.

"Thanks. We take pride in our house as well as our farm." Yamato said with his arm over the couch.

"You can afford all of this on a farm?" Runo asked.

"Well, it's a combination of the farm, Maria's career, and Anna's grant," Yamato answered.

"But it's mostly the farm," Maria answered as she came in carrying a tray with cups of tea. "Does anyone want some freshly brewed tea?" she asked as she gave an angelic smile.

"I'll take some!" Dan and Marucho exclaimed, but Eva smacked them in their heads.

"Show some restraint. This is their house," Eva told them.

"No need to hit them, Eva," Maria said as she placed the tray on the table.

"Thank you," Judai said, taking a cup and taking a sip. "Hmm, this is good. Tea leaves from your farm?"

"Yes." Maria nodded.

"People in the city just want more and more, but we don't need much when our farm provides for us," Anna said as she walked into the room with Haos Dragonoid on her shoulder.

Julie and Runo took sips from their cups. Their eyes went wide. "Oh man, this is the most delicious thing I have ever tasted!" Julie exclaimed, enjoying the taste of her tea.

"If this were in my parent's restaurant, customers would be lining up for a block to get it." Runo admitted.

Shun had taken a sip, and he too enjoyed it. His grandpa and mom had taught him how to make tea with leaves, and he had to say that Anna and her family made good tea leaves. "It's delicious, my grandpa enjoys hot tea, and I'm sure he would love this."

"Thank you all," Anna said, happy that they enjoyed the tea.

Judai finished his tea before he placed the empty cup on the table. "Before coming here, we encountered a strange Bakugan," Judai said.

"Strange Bakugan? Define strange." Anna asked.

"What type of Bakugan was it?" Haos Dragon asked.

"Well, this girl named Vivian called it Megalosmasher, and it had problems with its speech, and it seemed to act on almost pure animal instincts," Marucho explained.

"I never heard of Megalomasher." Haos Dragon said.

Anna immediately realized what the Brawlers encountered as she groaned and facepalmed. "Godammit, sis, you actually went and did this."

"Went and did what?" Judai asked in a serious tone.

Anna took a deep breath and spoke. "Years ago, before Gray died. My sister had a theory when looking over the genetic codes of the Bakugan. She discovered that all Bakugan, regardless of attribute or species. Contained the same genetic code. And theorized that it was possible to create genetically engineered Bakugan from the genetic codes."

Anna's answer made the brawlers and their Bakugan go pale. Silence followed for a few seconds before Runo broke it.

"Are you fucking kidding me?!" Runo shouted.

"Sadly, I wished. Everyone, including me, Gray, and Benton were involved in some way but ultimately deemed the project as a perversion of nature and immoral even Alisa back then thought to as well." Anna said, clenching for fist.

"Amazing to be able to create living Bakugan. It's science fiction come true and worthy of a noble prize." Marucho said, completely intrigued, he knew it was horrible, but from a scientific standpoint, it was beyond genius.

"No, it's not. It was us trying to play God, something no one should play God, and back then, my sister even agreed with us that it was wrong." Anna said, gritting her teeth.

"But now she's ok with it cause that creation of hers tried to kill us," Dan said.

"So that girl Vivian, she works for Alisa?" Eva uttered.

"Most Likely, my sister must have needed the information in the ruins to complete it," Anna said, now understanding why Alisa needed what was inside.

"You allowed her in those ruins?" Judai demanded.

"Not at first. However she challenged me to a Bakugan battle. Unfortunately, I lost." Anna said, hanging her head.

"Only by a second, mom. I know you would have won if it wasn't for that second." Maria said, trying to cheer her mom up.

"But why did you still allow her in?!" Runo shouted.

"Cause I'm a Gehabich, and we always keep our promises. That's something my father and mother taught me and Alisa years ago, and me, Maria, Wolf, Alice, and even Alisa follow that rule!" Anna said with a glare that made Runo wince.

Judai sighed, now knowing that was the case. "She's right. If they made a promise before the battle and if Anna lost, then she'll have to allow Alisa inside the ruins," Judai said.

"Sounds silly to me." Dan shrugged his shoulder.

"Dan, that's part of their family's belief," Shun said in a firm voice. "Even my family follows its own beliefs."

"I can tell that Alisa made a deal with you," Anna said, glancing at Shun.

Shun showed no emotion but nodded. "Yes, I did make a deal with her, but I cannot tell you or the others what it was. All you need to know is that I needed to defeat Dan or Judai."

"I hope you know what you are doing, kid," Yamato told Shun.

"I do," Shun said.

"By the way, Judai, how's your body been doing since the surgery?" Anna asked, "Any side effects?"

"Not that I know of," Judai said.

"Surgery?" Julie uttered.

"Were you in an accident?" Gorem asked.

"Yeah." Judai nodded.

"Oh, yes, remembered when I told you guys about him having a tracking device in his neck?" Eva asked.

Judai growled at Eva, not liking that he had to be treated like an animal.

"Umm, no, you didn't tell us about a tracking device," Marucho said, confused.

"They signed off before you could tell them," Nillious said.

"You have a tracking device on ya?" Runo asked Judai, surprised.

"Yes, I have a tracking device implanted in me," Judai said,

"Ahaha, you have a tracking device on you." Dan laughed, finding it funny.

Judai just shook his head. "Laugh it up, Danny-boy!" he growled.

"Mom and Dad have that implanted in him after the accident where he needed surgery," Eva said.

"What kind of accident was it?" Julie asked,

"You want to tell it?" Judai asked Anna, "You were the one who performed the surgery on me after all."

"Very well." Anna nodded. "The accident happened back when Alice, Alisa, Yamato Maria, and myself paid them a visit before Alisa changed. Sadly Gray and Wolf had to stay back in Russia to help father with the dimension transporter."

"It was when they were at the excavation site. We had just arrived and met up with Shin and Lucy." Yamato said.

Flashback 7 years ago

"Ok, we clear this area, so let's move the teams to here and here," Shin said, pointing to several positions.

"Yes sir." an assistant said as he left to give the orders.

"Can you believe it? A complete skeleton of a dire wolf, and it's bigger than the last one discovered." Lucy said, to them, it was practically a gold mine.

"Yes, this will definitely be the find of the century. Finding one of these, you have better luck winning the lottery with how hard it is to find one, let alone a complete skeleton." Shin said, looking over the pictures. It was bigger than the last one. We found just another step in understanding the growth of the extinct animal.

"Just boring old bones, dad." a 7-year-old Eva said, bored out of her mind.

"Course, a little brat like you would say that." a 9-year-old Judai answered.

"I'd rather be playing than looking at old dusty bones and not being a jerky stick in the mud like you," Eva said, sticking her tongue at Judai.

"Why, you little!" Judai started.

"Enough, you two behave!" Lucy raised her voice, getting both of them to stop. "While we're doing this, you need to be on your best behavior!"

"Sorry, mom." Judai and Eva apologized.

Shin kneeled on one knee and placed both his hands on his kid's heads. "Hahaha, wait a little longer, you two, once we're done with this. We'll do something fun." Shin laughed.

"And we have some visitors who will join us," Lucy said.

That confused Judai and Eva wondered who their mother was talking about. Just then, they heard a vehicle's engine. "Just in time, that's them," Lucy smirked.

The family turned to see a jeep pulling up, and Yamato was riding in the driver's seat. "Hey! Shin, Lucy!" Yamato called out.

"Nice to see you too," Shin smirked with his hand on his hips. "You know you should have been here about thirty minutes ago."

"Which is why I told him not to take that right near that last turn!" Anna said, crossing her arms. She was sitting in the passenger seat.

"I don't need to hear this," Yamato whispered before turning back to Shin and Lucy. "We… ahhh… Had a bit of a detour."

"Will you please stop? We're here, and that's what matters, right?" Alisa said, trying to calm down Anna and Yamato. She was sitting in the back with her daughter Alice and her niece Maria.

"Right," Yamato uttered.

"Right." Anna agreed.

Soon the family exited the jeep. Lucy hugged both Anna and Alisa, who returned it with the same passion.

"It's good to see you all," Lucy said before looking down at Alice and Maria. "My my, you girls have grown more beautiful everytime I see you."

"Thanks miss Lucy. I'll be even more beautiful than mama." Alice smiled.

"Yes, you will honey." Alisa smiled as she patted Alice's head.

"Me too," Maria said.

"So Gray and Wolf couldn't come?" Shin asked.

"They're still helping father with the project," Alisa answered.

"Still? Haven't you all been working on that thing for the last 4 years?" Lucy asked.

"Well, you know how father gets when he sets his mind on something. He won't stop until he achieves it, and you could say Wolf inherited that trait too. So Gray is there to make sure two actually eat and sleep some." Alisa explained.

"If anyone can do that, it's Gray. I can't wait to see this project one day. You and Gray said it could change the world." Shin said.

"If we can get it working without ripping a hole in the fabric of the universe or creating a black hole that will eventually devour everything on earth and the planet itself," Alisa said with a smile.

"Right…" Shin said, hoping she was making a bad joke and wasn't being literal.

"Alice, Maria, why don't you two go place with Eva and Judai while we adults talk?" Alisa suggested.

"Yes, mama," Alice said as she hugged her mother, who returned the hug before she let go and ran over to Eva and Judai, with Maria following after her.

Judai and Eva glared at each other. Both still ticked about earlier. Their staring contest was cut short when Alice and Maria walked up to them.

"Are you two fighting again?" Maria asked.

"What do you think?" both siblings asked but then growled at each other.

"Can you two please stop fighting?" Alice asked, not liking how they were arguing.

Maria wanted to avoid anymore fighting and changed the subject. "So your mom and dad found a new skeleton, right?"

Judai turned away from Eva and faced Maria. "Yeah, a Dire Wolf. It's larger than anyone previously discovered. Dad and Mom are excited about it."

"Why are you all here?" Eva asked. She was confused why Alice, Maria, and their families would come all this way.

"Mom, dad, and aunt Alisa wanted to come and see what your parents discovered," Maria answered.

"And I think mom has something for you," Alice said.

That caught Judai's attention. "What does she have?"

"I don't know." Alice shrugged her shoulders. "But she said once we're done here, she'll give it to you."

"Very well then," Judai said.

"Aw, how come Judai gets stuff and I don't!" Eva whined.

Judai smirked. "Cause I'm older than you." Judai teased Eva as he petted her

"Stop that!" Eva shouted, smacking Judai's hand away.

"Little brat," Judai muttered as he put his hands in his pocket.

"Judai, Eva, Maria, Alice! Come on. It's time for lunch!" Lucy called out.

"Come on, let's go eat," Maria said; however, the kids heard a low growl as something approached them.

"You hear that?" Eva asked, getting closer to her brother.

"Yeah, I do," Judai said, looking around as he tried to figure out where the growling was coming from.

The four kids turned to see rustling in the bushes. While backing away, Judai spoke. "You three go. I'll distract it." Judai said.

"Judai we-!" Alice didn't finish what she wanted to say as a mountain lion leaped out at them, Maria grabbed Eva and pulled out of the way, and Judai ducked to the side.

The mountain lion growled as it moved toward Alice, who was paralyzed with fear to move. The large cat readied to pounce when a rock hit the side of its head, earring a hiss from it. The Mountain Lion turned and faced Judai, who was holding another rock.

"Leave her alone, you overgrown house cat!" Judai shouted, throwing the rock at the mountain lion who roared and leaped at him, only for him to duck its claws, barely missing his head. He then quickly broke into a sprint with the Mountain Lion chasing after him.

"Judai!" Alice exclaimed in worry.

"Kids!" Shin shouted as he and the other adults ran over to them.

Alisa got to her knees and brought Alice into a hug." Ali, are you ok, sweetie?" she asked her, looking her over.

"I am, but Judai is getting chased by a mountain lion!" Alice exclaimed, pointing in the direction of where Judai had led the mountain lion.

"Fuck! Yamato, come with me, Lucy, Alisa, and Anna. Take the kids back to camp!" Shin said.

"I'll go too," Anna said. "He might need a medic just in case." with her bag containing her medical supplies on her back.

"I hope it doesn't come to that!" Shin growled.

With that, the three adults rushed into the forest to find Judai. Lucy was scared, but Alisa placed her hand on Lucy's shoulder. "Judai will be fine. He's a smart boy."

"I-I hope so," Lucy murmured.

The adults eventually found Judai and were all horrified to see the state that he was in. Judai was lying on the ground, his body badly bleeding, and his right arm looked crushed and bleeding heavily, with a large branch lying next to him, blood covering it.

"Judai!" Shin screamed as three went over to him, fearing the worst as Anna checked for a pulse.

"He's alive, but his pulse is weak. I have to work on him right here to stabilize him." Anna said as she opened her bag, pulling out what she needed.

"You sure we can move him back to camp?" Shin asked.

"I just need a few minutes," Anna stated. That is when they heard a growl and saw an injured lion approaching them.

Shin took out his gun and pointed it at the beast. "If I were you, I would back away." he wasn't planning to kill it, but just scare it off; however, if given the choice between it or his son, well, the lion best leave now if it values its life.

Shin then shot at the mountain lion's feet, making it roar as it ran away. Seeing it leave his sight, Shin put his gun away. The man sighed as he turned to Anna, who was still treating Judai.

"Is he stable enough to move yet?" Shin asked in fear.

"I still need a few more seconds. Get some bandages out of my bag. Help me bandage him up." Anna said.

Shin and Yamato did as told and helped bandage Judai's arm along with some of his other wounds.

"He's stable, I think we can move him, but we need to be quick getting back to camp," Anna said.

Shin picked Judai up and his arms. He gave his son a sad and worried look. "Don't worry. You'll be fine. You're my son, a tough brat." Shin said as he, Yamato, and Anna quickly returned to camp.

When they got back, Judai was immediately placed in the medical tent. Alisa stayed outside with the girls while the others were inside with Judai.

"Good news, he'll live, but bad news, His arm bone is snapped in two, tch," Anna said as she finished checking him over. "We need a replacement bone within the hour, or he will lose his arm!" Anna said in pure frustration knowing the odds were against them.

"Within the hour?! How on earth can we even find one out here?!" Lucy shouted, panicking out of her mind

Shin brought Lucy into a hug and began stroking her hair. "It's ok, we'll find a way." then it hit him. "Anna, is it possible to use a bone that isn't human?"

"Umm, well yes, if it is close enough in size, it could act as a replacement, at least in theory," Anna answered, wondering where Shin was going with this.

"How about the Dire Wolf we just found?" Shin asked.

"You really want to use a bone fossil as your son's replacement bone?" Yamato asked, shocked.

"That could work, but you'll need to clean and sterilize it before I do so, but you both know that it takes hours to do that, and there will be no telling the side effects it could have," Anna said, knowing the process.

"We'll have it ready in time." Shin bit his lip, knowing the risk were worth it for their son. They will deal with whatever comes after together. "Honey, let's go get it."

Lucy nodded as she and Shin left the medical tent, passing Alisa and the girls. "Is Judai going to be ok, mama?" Alice asked worriedly.

"It's ok, honey," Alisa said in a reassuring voice. "If anyone can help him, it's your aunt Anna," Alisa said, putting her faith in Anna.

Shin and Lucy worked as fast and efficiently as they could to prepare the bone. The couple could feel the pressure. Both thoughts were on their son and fixing his arm.

"And there, I think we did it," Shin said, wiping his hand across his forehead.

"You sure this'll work?" Lucy asked her husband.

"It's got to, honey, it's got to," Shin said, completely unsure.

Shin and Lucy then returned to the medical tent and gave the bone to Anna. "alright, the moment of truth." Anna said nervously as she put on some rubber gloves and got to work.

A few hours passed, and everyone anxiously waited outside the tent. Soon Anna walked out of the tent, taking off her mask and gloves. She then sighed.

"It was difficult, but I think I saved his arm. It's currently casted." Anna told them.

"Anna, thank you," Lucy said as she rushed inside.

"Shouldn't thank me yet. Remember, there could be side effects to worry about." Anna told Shin.

"When will they start appearing?" Shin asked.

"That will be hard to say. It will depend on a few different variables, like his environment or his stress level," Anna explained.

"What matters is that he's fine, but we'll keep you notified of his condition," Shin told her.

Anna nodded. She and everyone entered the tent to check on Judai.

End of flashback

"And that's the story." Anna finished

"Damn." Dan cursed, turning to Judai. "That's got to be a pretty traumatic experience."

"Not really. But they did overdid it with the tracking device." Judai said

"Maybe they did, but what matters is that you are here now," Yamato stated.

"Right…" Judai dryly stated as he clenched his arm that had the surgery.

"That was also the week that Alisa had given Judai me," Nillious spoke up.

"Indeed. So many events happened that day." Anna smiled

"So you really have a fossil bone in your arm?" Julie asked, still left speechless from the story.

"Yep, every month I take counseling from Anna to see if I have any side effects lately," Judai stated,

"Which you will take while you are here," Anna told him.

"Goddamit." Judai groaned.

"Hahaha, he never did like those sessions." Eva laughed.

"You want to go? You bitch." Judai growled

Anna then smacked Judai on the back of the head. "No cursing in my house!" Anna exclaimed.

"Damn, that hurts!" Judai yelped, rubbing the back of his head.

The others just chuckled while Shun just watched. "Anyway, you wanted to ask me something?" Anna asked.

"Yes, you see, we recently visited Alice's home, and I'm sure you already know about Micheal getting the Dimension Transporter working right?" Marucho said.

Anna's expression then became serious. "I do. The whole family knows, including Benton Dusk." Anna said, "Course, according to my sister, he died. Of course, neither I nor Wolf believes her."

"Then you and Wolf are correct." Shun said. "However he isn't the same person you two once knew."

Anna's eyebrows raised in confusion. "What do you mean by that?"

The brawlers began to explain about what happened with Michael and the Dimension Transporter and the involvement of Naga. All three family members were shocked by what they had heard.

"Hal G?! My father is working for an evil Bakugan?!" Anna exclaimed in complete shock. From what they said, it seemed like the Dimension Transporter must have malfunctioned while teleporting and the Negative Energy from the Silent Core turned him into a monster.

"Damn old man!" Yamato shouted, punching his palm. "First Gray, and now he's corrupted, damn it!"

"So that's the reason he disappeared, oh grandpa." Maria sighed before running to her room

'Maria if she's this hurt from us telling her about her grandpa imagine how she'll feel if I tell her that Alice is Masquerade.' Judai thought

"I'm so sorry we had to tell you this." Eva apologized.

Anna clenched her fist so hard that her palm began to bleed. "First my sister, then my father… just what the hell had my family done to deserve this!" Anna shouted in anguish.

"Honey," Yamato said placing his hand on her shoulder.

"Anna." Haos Dragonoid said.

"I'm terribly sorry for your family, but maybe you can help us prevent more from being hurt," Drago said.

"Yes, we must focus on now. Vestroia and Earth are colliding. The effects of what is happening in Vestroia may end up affecting your world before long." Nillious said.

Anna was able to calm herself down. "You all are looking for the Infinity Core, right? Maybe Benton and Wolf can help you all out, and if your going up against Alisa as well his resources will be invaluable."

"Anna, do you know about Bakugan Valley? Runo asked.

"Yes, it was one of the sights of the Great Collison. Areas like Bakugan Valley have more concentration of dimensional energy, which is where the dimension barriers between both worlds are weakened allowing Bakugan to crossover into our world." Anna explained.

"I see. That explains why there were so many Bakugan in the valley and why it was called Bakugan Valley." Marucho stated,

"That's right." Anna said.

Before they could continue, a knock came on the door. "More guests?" Anna questioned before suddenly the door was kicked open, nearly being torn off its hinges.

"What the hell!" Anna exclaimed.

The brawlers and Yamato ran over to Anna and Maria who although was still upset from earlier ran out of her room after hearing the loud noise.

"Sorry for the rude entrance." a voice all too familiar to Marucho and Eva spoke out.

Everyone watched in shock as a young girl with a traditional Chinese hairstyle. The front rounded with the back tied into a ponytail. She wore a light pink qipao long in the front and back with floral patterns on it, with black leggings underneath and pink slippers, and beside her was the girl from before Vivian, who looked extremely frustrated and annoyed.

"Can the brawlers come out to play?" The girl asked with her hand on her hip.

"M-Mei Ling!" Marucho and Eva shouted, shocked to see the girl who had beaten them weeks ago was here.

"Not just her," Judai growled as he glared at Vivian who glared back.

"Hmph, you aren't getting away this time!" Vivian said with venom in her voice.

"Quiet down." Mei Ling smirked

"Bitch, don't you dare order me around. If I recall correctly we're the same rank, and both of us are part of the same group." Vivian stated with venom.

Mei Ling frowned, not even fazed by Vivian's outburst. "Really? Need I remind you who failed a simple mission like back in Bakugan Valley? Oh, wait, that's right, that's you!" to Mei Ling, they may both be elites, but in terms of skill, Mei Ling saw herself as the superior of the two of them, and she would have gotten the job down within a few seconds.

"You!" Vivian growled angrily that Mei Ling was looking down on her.

"You saw how she was able to knock down that door?" Julie asked nervously.

"I'm more shocked by how easily she's intimidating Viviain with no effort at all," Runo said also feeling anxious.

"You two are rude, kicking people's doors down. Didn't Alisa teach you both any manners?" Anna asked calmly.

"I'm sorry aunty, but Vivian is giving me a bad headache so I forgot to knock quietly." Mei Ling answered calmly.

"Aunty?" Maria asked confused.

"As much as I hate to admit it, me and the spoiled brat here are adopted daughters of Alisa, so I guess I can call you cousin." Mei Ling smirked.

"I'm more refined than this bitch." Vivian growled, glaring at Mei Ling who just ignored her.

"It doesn't matter who you both are, like Alisa, you aren't welcome here. Now leave!" Yamato demanded.

Mei Ling sighed. "You have been hoping to get in contact with Wolf, Right?" Mei Ling asked.

That got everyone's attention. "What are you getting at?" Anna questioned, not liking where this was going.

"Simple, face the spoiled brat in a Bakugan Battle. Win, and we'll tell you what happened to Wolf, and we'll back off. Lose well; you don't want to know the consequences for losing." Mei Ling said.

"If it's a battle you want, then I'm ready to battle!" Dan said.

Judai put his hand in front of Dan. "This one's mine." Judai said.

"Are you sure?" Dan asked. "Leonidas is still recovering, and Nillious is out of commission."

"I'm fine to go, Judai," Leonidas said, ready to battle.

Judai nodded before turning to Mei Ling. "I want to add more to the win conditions, but if I win, you tell me where Alice is."

Mei Ling just smirked. "Very well, but to add more to the losing conditions, we'll get your lady friends as well." that made Runo and Julie shiver even Eva was concerned about that condition.

"That figures," Judai said, not surprised that Alisa had eyes for Runo, Julie, and even his sister. "But then again, I don't really care much for Runo, and besides Eva's a real handful. It might do well for her, and this could be a great learning experience so that she could be better behaved. I'm just surprised that you didn't want Maria. After all, she's beautiful." Judai smirked as he shrugged his shoulders.

"I did say all girls, right?" Mei Ling smirked, looking at Maria, but Yamato got in front of her.

"You asshole, you're really offering us?!" Runo and Eva shouted in rage.

"Sorry, I'm just making a joke, ladies." Judai smiled.

"Joke or not, you have agreed." Mei Ling said as she revealed a watch, and with a push of a button, everyone was then transported out of the house.

---

They reappeared in the grassy plains with mountains in the distance. The group was surprised, all but Anna and Yamato.

"So, did Alisa complete the portal, or did Hal G give it to her?" Anna questioned.

"Mother doesn't need the old man. Remember, she was the one who came up with most of the designs." Mei Ling answered.

"Let's get to it," Judai said, ready to battle.

Vivian smirked with anticipation. "This time, you have nowhere to run." Vivian proclaimed.

"You better not fail this, Vivian." Mei Ling said with a glare.

Vivian glared back and huffed. "I have no intentions to fail. Me and Megalosmasher will put an end to them." Vivian said.

"For your sake, it should be." Mei Ling said,

"Oh man, she's scarier than Vivian." Preyas whimpered.

"Are you afraid of everything?" Pegatrix asked.

"No, but I battled her before, so I know what she and her partner can do," Preyas said, still shaking.

"But from the looks of it, she's definitely more discipline than Vivian. Calm and collective and keeps her mind focused on the mission." Shun said just by looking at Mei Ling. He could tell that she was more ruthless than what they were seeing.

"Time to hunt, Drome Up!" Vivian exclaimed.

The Drome then started to materialize, and inside the Drome, the environment started to shift. The ground began to split as water shot out, forming waterways in the air, and the mountains and rivers began to merge, forming spirals of water as if they were DNA, the center of the mountains forming into pillars in the center of them. Multiple sections of the grassy plains began to rise up, forming floating islands in the sky. The ground beneath both players were then shot into the air via a waterspout, and those on the side were done the same. Judai and the others were trying to keep their balances while Mei Ling and Vivian stood firm. As soon as the field was done transforming, everyone looked at what had happened.

"So this is the terraforming you kids told me about," Anna said. She would never have thought this would happen when the Drome was used, but since the Drome also worked as a connection to Vestroia and with the chaos that was taking place there. It was not seeping into their world through the Drome.

"Yeah, and it's just as freaky as it was last time," Julie said.

"At least it's water and mountains and not lava," Runo added.

"Bakugan Brawl!" Vivian shouted as she threw her Bakugan. "Bakugan Stand! Rise Aquos Apophix!"

In a flash of blue light, rising from the rivers, was a winged/finned cobra-like Bakugan.

'She didn't send out Megalosmasher, must be saving it for later.' Judai thought before turning to Leonidas. "You ready?"

"As always," Leonidas answered.

Judai nodded and loaded Leonidas into the launcher. "Bakugan Brawl!" Judai shouted as he launched Leonidas onto the field. "Leo, Stand!"

Leonidas appeared in a flash of red light and roared, ready for battle.

"Arragh! I'm going to make this quick!" Leonidas roared.

'So we get to see the fabled Leonidas in action. Let's see if he lives up to rumors.' Mei Ling thought with her arms crossed.

"You think you scare me." Vivian grinned as she held up an ability card. "Puh-lease, Mei Ling's partner Bakugan is much more intimidating than you. Ability Activate! Toxic Tide!"

Apophix charged up water in his jaw before launching a stream of poisoned water at Leonidas.

"Ability Activate! Sudden Drought!" Judai exclaimed. "Here's how it works, when my opponent activates an ability, I'm able to nullify it."

Leonidas roared and unleashed a powerful stream of fire. It made contact with the poison water, evaporating into purple steam.

"It'll take more than a little water to dampen our spirit," Judai commented.

"Right!" Leonidas growled.

"Is that right?" Vivian smirked.

"What?" Judai said.

When the steam cleared away, Apophix was gone and nowhere in sight.

"Where is he?" Leonidas growled as he scanned the area, searching for him.

"Where did he go?" Runo asked.

"Vivian used the smoke screen as a distraction for Apophix to hide," Shun explained.

"Keep an eye out Judai. It could be anywhere!" Eva called out.

'I know that. I got too careless with that play.' Judai thought as he looked around but could not see Apophix.

Vivian held up another ability "Ability Activate! Tail Fin Sting!"

Suddenly Apophix emerged from a pillar of water. Apophix's tail was surging with water as he waved his tail, creating a strong tidal current of water that was heading towards Leonidas.

"Arghhhh!" Leonidas roared as he was enveloped in the water.

"Leo!" Judai called out.

Apophix then followed up and delivered a powerful headbutt to Leonidas' chest, causing the Pyrus Bakugan to skid back. Leonidas growled in more annoyance than pain.

"You fine, Leo?" Judai called out.

"I'm fine, but now I'm mad!" Leonidas roared in rage.

"She's definitely good. Judai and Leo need to keep on their toes," Dan said.

"Alisa taught them, so they definitely have some skills under their belts." Anna frowned.

"Let's hope Judai and Leonidas can take her out," Tigrerra added.

"Yes, or else we'll end up as Alisa's trophy," Julie said in fear.

"Don't worry, if anyone can beat her, Judai and Leo can," Maria said, having complete faith in both her childhood friend and his Bakugan.

"I hope so," Runo said, also not wanting to be a trophy.

"Leo, change your attribute! We're going Ventus!" Judai called out.

"Right! Attribute Change Ventus!" Leonidas roared as he shifted attributes from Pyrus to Ventus.

"Now Ability Activate! Blow Away!" Judai shouted.

With a flap of his wings, Leonidas created a powerful gust of wind, and Apophix struggled against the wind.

"Apophix! Jump into the river!" Vivian shouted, pointing upward.

Apophix looked above and saw the river in the sky. He hissed before leaping into the air, pushing against the wind currents but was able to submerge into the flowing sky water.

"Damn snake!" Leonidas growled.

"It used the river to evade the Blow Away ability card," Runo said.

"And worse is that Apophix can emerge from anywhere thanks to how the field is," Marucho said.

"With the way the field is structured, I say fate is on my side," Vivian smirked. "Mother will praise me for beating you and bringing some trophies home," she said with a smile that caused the girls to shiver

"I'll still skin your scaly serpent." Judai declared.

"We'll see," Vivian smirked and snapped her fingers.

Suddenly Apophix shot out of the river behind Leonidas and smashed its tail into his back, knocking him down to the ground. Leonidas snarled as he got back up. He turned only to see a ripple in the water. Apophix had once again submerged within the water.

But another strike came from the side, and Apophix slammed his tail into Leo's stomach, sending him skipping across the ground like a stone. Leo came to a stop, lying on his back. Water from a waterfall that was on a floating rock drizzled on his body. When Leonidas returned to his feet, his opponent was again submerged in the water. The dragon began growling as he got to his feet, the water dripping off his body.

"This is getting annoying!" Leonidas growled in anger.

'Damn, Vivian is using the waterways to conceal her Bakugan, strike us, and retreat back before we can even counterattack.' Judai thought, knowing they'd lose if they didn't figure out something soon.

"Come on, Judai, don't let her punt you around like that!" Eva exclaimed.

"Hey, you little brat, it's not that easy, you know," Leonidas growled towards Eva

"Maybe instead of brute strength, you should rely on your other senses?" Anna called out.

"She's right. You can't just rely on just your eyes. You have other senses that you can use." Haos Dragonoid added.

"They're right, Leo. If you can't see Apophix, then you can sense him." Judai said. "Close your eyes and wait, and when you feel it strike."

Leonidas just looked at his partner but nodded and closed his eyes. He can hear the running water, the wind blowing the crackling of the rocks around him. Just then, he heard a small splash. Leo's eyes shoot open; quickly turning around, he grabbed Apophix with one claw. The sight shocked everyone, especially Vivian.

"Got you now, you sneaky serpent," Leonidas growled.

"Alright!" Dan shouted as he and Maurucho hugged each other.

"They got him now," Runo smirked.

"Yes, they did," Tigerra added.

"Yeah, Judai and Leonidas!" Julie exclaimed, jumping up and down.

Apophix was struggling against Leonidas's hold before he hissed. "L-Let Me Go, Outsider." Apophix hissed. Seeing that Apophix could speak shocked the Brawlers

"He can speak?" Julie said, surprised.

"I don't know why you're surprised. All Bakugan can talk. Most just choose not to." Yamato said.

"That's true. Remember Trace and the others back in Bakugan Valley?" Pegatrix said.

"So I guess he's the talking type," Dan remarked.

"If he can talk, let's see if he can say ow!" Judai said.

"Say goodbye, Apophix!" Leonidas roared as he delivered a powerful left hook to the Aquos snake Bakugan sending him flying back, and he reverted back to ball form, landing at Vivian's feet.

"Wow, you sure showed me." Mei Ling said in a sarcastic tone as she mocked Vivian.

"Shut up! That just round 1, I was feeling them out!" Vivian exclaimed at Mei Ling. "Now it's time for the real fun to begin," Vivian said as she held up Megalosmasher.

"K-Kill…" Megalosmasher growled.

Vivian dawned a sinister grin. "Time to feast, Megalosmasher!" she said, clenching her fist. "Biogan Brawl!" Vivian shouted, throwing Megalosmasher at Leonidas. His ball form collided with the dragon Bakugan's stomach, which made him gasp the air left his body as he was sent skitting back before coming to a stop.

"B-bitch!" Leonidas growled, holding his stomach.

"Leo!" Judai called out.

"Rise, Megalosmasher!" Vivian called out her arm above her head.

In a flash of blue light, Megalosmasher appeared ready to battle. Anna, Yamato, and Maria looked in shock, especially Anna. She was now seeing a Biologically Engeired Bakugan, something she and many others refused to even create.

"So that's Megalosmasher?" Maria asked the Brawlers.

"Yeah, and it almost killed us the last time we saw it," Julie answered.

Megalosmasher then glared at the Brawlers before his Gaze settled on Judai and Leonidas before finally speaking clearly. "Brawlers, I'll devour all of your partner Bakugan. Starting with yours, boy." Megalosmasher said in a calm voice as steam escaped his maw.

"Oh boy, this b-bad!" Preyas exclaimed in complete fear before hiding in Marucho's pocket.

"Did he just say devour?!" Runo asked, her eyes widening at what she had just heard.

"Do Bakugan eat other Bakugan, Gorem?" Julie asked in a shaky voice.

"No, no bakugan has ever eaten their own before." Gorem answered.

"That thing isn't a Bakugan," Drago said with disgust. "It's a monster created from evil."

"Agreed, Alisa really is twisted to even do that." Haos Dragonoid added.

Vivian held up an ability "Ability Activate! Tidal Force!"

Megalosmasher then charged up energy in his maw before discharging it as a massive stream of blue energy that was heading toward Leonidas.

Judai quickly held up an ability card. "Ability Activate! Gale Wall!"

Leonidas then generated a vortex of wind around his body just as Megalosmasher's attack smashed against the barrier of wind but to everyone's surprise. The blue energy was overpowering Leonidas' barrier.

Leonidas was struggling to keep the barrier up. "Judai… I can't hold it much longer!" Leonidas said his voice strained.

"In that case evade it," Judai commanded.

Leonidas quickly dropped the shield and narrowly dodged the energy beam which struck a floating island creating a massive explosion the force of it made the other islands tremble.

Judai looked to where the floating island once was and was shocked by the power Megalosmasher had. 'He has that much power?' Judai thought in shock.

"Well, that's surprising." Mei Ling said impressed by what Megalosmasher could do and since he was just the first Biogan, it made her wonder how powerful those after would be.

"Ability Activate!" Vivian said as she held up another ability. "Biting Crush!"

Megalosmasher lunged at Leonidas with surprising speed, his jaws as wide as possible.

"Leo! If he's hungry? We should give him more iron in his diet!" Judai called out.

Leonidas knew what Judai meant. "Attribute Change! Subterra!" with that Leonidas changed to Subterra.

"Now, Ability Activate! Rock Throw!" Judai shouted.

Leonidas roared and smashed his fist into the ground making a massive boulder. "Chew on this!" Leo shouted as he used his tail to smash it towards Megalosmasher.

The boulder had jammed itself in the Biogan's mouth. Megasmasher roared while shaking his head trying to get the boulder out of his mouth.

"That goes to show you shouldn't bite off more than you can chew." Anna stated.

However, Megalosmasher clamped his jaws down tight and crushed the boulder into dust. "Is that all you have, fools? You will die!" The Biogan roared.

"Grr, I'm getting annoyed with this thing!" Leonidas growled.

"Careful Leo, those jaws are dangerous." Judai told his partner.

"If only I wasn't healing." Nillious growled, feeling completely useless.

"Now this is fun." Vivian smirked enjoying the show.

"Spoiled brat, hurry up and finished up already." Mei Ling called out.

"I know what I'm doing." Vivian replied. "And I'm planning to saver this."

'Idiot, if she keeps playing around like this, it'll only end up backfiring.' Mei Ling thought. Vivian was playing with them. She has Judai and Leonidas on the ropes and should finish them before they can make a possible comeback.

"Megalosmasher, make his death slow and painful!" Vivian commanded.

As she held up an ability card. "Ability Activate! Thunder Jaw!"

Megalosmasher once again lunged at Leonidas with his jaws opened as wide as possible. This time however, all of his teeth were electrically charged.

"Leonidas, Ability Activate! Crushing Nail!" Judai shouted

Leonidas channeled energy into both his claws creating two orange swords out of energy before he flew right at Megalosmasher to clash with him head-on.

Blades and Jaws collided as soon as both Leonidas and Megalosmasher clashed with each other a massive shockwave was sent out nearly knocking everyone on the sidelines off their feet. Both Bakugan growled as they tried to overpower one another.

"I'm going send you back to the test tube you came from!" Leonidas roared.

"I will devour you!" Megalosmasher roared

Lighting began to shoot out from their attack, the water from the rivers and debris from the ground even the islands themselves began to tremble. Just then a blinding explosion erupted. Everyone on the side convered their faces as they were engulfed by it.

Judai opened his eyes and saw that the field was now back to normal. "Ok now that's becoming a common occurrence."

"Yeah." Leonidas who had returned to ball form stated.

"You ok?" Judai asked in concern.

Leonidas just scoffed. "I'm fine."

"What the hell happened?!" Vivian demanded

"Nice job bitch. You overloaded the battlefield." Mei Ling stated

"The power of both Bakugan was too much for the field to take, so the battle was forced to end in a draw." Marucho explained.

"That was insane. I've never seen a battle like that before." Maria said.

'That Biogan is dangerious, but I tell it's just a first generation. What are you thinking Alisa?' Anna thought.

"Honey, you ok?" Yamato asked concerned.

"Yeah, I'm alright." Anna replied.

"Well now that the battle is over, you two should leave." Dan said to Mei Ling and Vivian.

"I don't think so. The deal was if you win. However, the battle resulted in a draw." Mei Ling stated."But I'll tell you this, trying to contact Wolf is pointless."

"What do you mean it's pointless?" Julie asked.

"She's just spouting nonsense." Runo stated.

"I'm telling the truth as I was the one who brought Wolf to Alisa myself. Right now, she probably implanted a chip in the most painful way possible." Mei Ling clarified, shocking Maria, Anna, and Yamato.

"You monsters! What has he ever done to you?!" Maria shouted in anger.

"Was nothing personal, just bringing him in since Alisa invited Alice herself." Mei Ling said, further shocking everyone. "And Alisa figured he might crashed their little bonding."

"Bitch! Where's Alice?" Anna demanded.

"With her mother where she belongs now that she knows everything." Mei Ling said "Now that I think about it you all got a letter from her right?"

"She did leave a letter, but never said where she went. Only that she was invited to a party by Alisa." Eva frowned.

"Tell us where she is now." Runo said.

"Not just her Wolf as well." Dan added.

"As if we tell you the location of them." Vivian frowned, still frustrated from the result of the battle.

"But you will see them again soon." Mei Ling said. "However I'll tell you this: The second Biogan is already being created."

"So Alisa has another one of those artificial monstrosities in the works?" Shun questioned, after what he saw with Megalosmasher it was clear that more of those Biogan could be just as or even more powerful than Megalosmasher.

"As if one was bad enough." Eenoch growled.

Mei Ling smirks as she pressed the button on her device and everyone was transported away and reappeared in Anna, Yamato and Maria's home.

Mei Ling then turned to Vivian. "Alright you spoiled brat, you head back to Alisa, you've already embarrassed us enough today." Mei Ling stated

"What?! You don't order me around! And just me? What are you planning to do?" Vivian demanded.

"Yes, what are you planning on doing?" Anna asked as she glared at Mei Ling.

"So glad you asked, well since the battle ended in a draw I'll be staying at your house since I don't feel like camping outside." Mei Ling said as she gave an innocent smile. "So bear with me."'

"You really think, they will allow you int-" Eva didn't get to finish when Anna spoke up.

"If you behave yourself and do nothing horrible, then you can stay." Anna said.

"I'm always well-behaved." Mei Ling smirked.

"Grr, Mei Ling." Vivian growled, however she relented, deciding there was nothing more she could do about it.

"Now Vivian, contact someone to transfer money in an account so that you could take a plane back home while I go to make myself comfortable." Mei Ling said as she went inside the house.

"Bitch, why not just give me your transporter since you are staying here apparently." Vivian question

Mei Ling, however either didn't hear Vivian or ignored her as she went inside the house and closed the door which didn't fit into the frame, angering her even further.

"Fuck her and Leona, always mocking and putting me down. One day, one day I will show them!" Vivian gritted her teeth. There was nothing more she could do but head for home, knowing that Leona and the others wouldn't let her live it down.

---

Back inside the brawlers just observed Mei Ling especially Eva and Marucho both knowing firsthand how good of a battle she was, and the fact she was to kick in a sturdy door with just one kick meant she was definitely trained by Juri.

"Can you please show me where I'll be staying?" Mei Ling asked Anna.

Anna nodded before turning to Maria. "Maria, do you mind showing your cousin to her room please?"

Maria just looked at her mother confused, but she nodded. "We have lots of room, come," Maria told Mei Ling

"Why thank you, you're such a kind and generous girl just like your cousin." Mei Ling smiled

Maria was a little hesitant but nodded before leading Mei Ling upstairs, leaving the Brawlers, Yamato and Anna downstairs. "Why did you let her stay?" Dan asked Anna.

"Yeah, she works for Alisa. Mei Ling is definitely a spy." Runo said.

"Look, you know the old phrase, keep your friends close and your enemies closer?" Anna asked.

"I don't think it means this close." Runo argued

"It doesn't matter. This will allow us to keep an eye on her, maybe even turn this situation to our advantage." Anna said.

"I agree. We know nothing about her or the other members of Alisa's battlers. This could be a good opportunity to learn more and we could even find out where Alice is." Shun stated.

"I don't like it. What if she ties us up and delivers us girls to Alisa?" Julie asked nervously.

"I won't let that happen Julie." Gorem said.

"Same here but if we are gonna prevent that we can't let Alisa control the pace of event's so we have to take the battle to her. It's our best chance to beat her and save Alice, Wolf, as well as anyone else she got." Judai said.

"That's fine by me if you want to know more." Mei Ling said from the top of the stairs.

"That easy?" Dan questioned.

"I agree, you just saying that you'll tell us seems too easy." Marucho remarked.

"Mother doesn't see you as a threat. That's plain and simple. After all, you've all seen the power of her partner Helios at the exhibition battle." Mei Ling said.

"What was that!" Runo shouted offended by what Mei Ling said.

"So you're just calling us weak, huh? Me and Gorem can put you in your place in just 10 seconds!" Julie exclaimed.

"If you insist, however, if your friend could only settle a draw with Vivian then what chance could you have against me." Mei Ling smirked with a condescending tone.

"Don't you two. I really hate to admit that none of us can beat her." Eva spoke up, she was not one to say such a thing, but she had battled Mei Ling before and even with Marucho they were both swept to the side like they were nothing.

"And the spoiled brat was only the fourth strongest on the Elite Team." Mei Ling clarified

"Wait?! Fourth Strongest?" Runo questioned in shock.

"So there's more than just you two?" Shun asked calmly, staring Mei Ling right in the eye.

"Of course, AAAnimius is composed of an Elite Team which me and Vivian are part of and a Secondary Team." Mei Ling explained

"So that means we have a whole army to battle against." Drago said.

"And not just them but also Masquerade." Skyress added.

"Indeed, as well as Marduk who mother was forcibly recruited after the exhibition battle." Mei Ling said.

"So it's a lose-lose situation," Marucho uttered. Dealing with Masquerade is one thing, but now they had to battle not only Alisa's battlers but Marduk and Vladitor too.

"Also I know none of you never asked, but on AAAnimus Elite team, I'm the second strongest member." Mei Ling smiled.

"I don't care how strong you are. I'll take you and Masquerade down!" Dan proclaimed.

"That big talk coming from you especially since you were defeated by AAAnimus number one battler." Mei Ling said

Dan's eyes widened. "Wait? When did that happen?!"

"After the exhibition battle was shown, a battler named Magnus Black challenged you to a battle." Mei Ling explained. "I don't think I need to remind you of the results of said battle do I?"

"Damn it. I should have known. First he showed up." Dan cursed, clenching his fist, Magnus was sent to test him and Drago, and he guessed Mei Ling did the same with Marucho and Eva.

"I get it now. You two were sent to test our Bakugan's power weren't you?" Marucho remarked.

"To be more accurate, it was to get a baseline on what the supposed best were capable of and to be honest it was disappointing although Magnus, on the other hand, was really looking forward to a great battle if it wasn't for that field." Mei Ling clarified.

"You tell him if he wants a rematch, I'm raring to go anytime." Dan declared.

"I'll be sure to tell him just let me know when you actually become a challenge." Mei Ling said sarcastically

Shun then spoke up. "If you are that confident in your skills, then you and I will battle tomorrow." Shun calmly challenged.

Mei Ling stared at Shun for a while before closing her eyes. "Very well then, to be honest, out of everyone here, you might be the only one besides Judai who might be worth a challenge and my time for me." Mei Ling said before she flashed a vicious smile. "But I feel we need something to make this worth the energy, so how about another wager?" Mei Ling asked

"What are your terms?" Shun asked.

"I will make it simple if you manage to beat me or even cause a tie like Judai I will consider it a victory for you and I will honor the earlier wager with the brat and even tell you where you can find Wolf and Alice and if you actually beat me rather then tie I will then provide a way there for two people but if I beat you I want you to spend the entire night with me alone." Mei Ling said with a lustful smile that left everyone a little unnerved but Shun, who didn't appear phased by her words.

"Woah, I never expected the evil girl to be into Shun," Dan muttered.

Mei Lin's partner Bakugan than jumped on her shoulder. "Mei Ling, can't you control yourself?" Serpillious asked

"I am just trying to gather some information." Mei Ling said, punctuating the last word while trying to act innocent, but her eyes never left Shun.

"So having your crush spend the night alone with you is now called gathering information?" Serpillious questioned, knowing that his partner was lying to him.

Shun just stared at Mei Ling, looking right through her. "Very well, and I don't intend to have a draw. I play to win." Shun proclaims.

Mei Ling smirked and turned her back. "Then it's agreed. I'll see you tomorrow at 1:30. See you then Shun." Mei Ling said leaving for her room as she winked at him.

"She totally has a thing for you man." Dan said with his arms crossed.

"I don't know if I should be more concerned for you as a brawler or a man?" Eva said not liking the vibes she was giving off.

"I don't care. I have no intention of losing." Shun told Eva.

"We could all worry about this tomorrow. Let's just settle down for the night and get dinner started, you all must be getting tired, everyone." Maria intervened.

"You sure? We wouldn't want to intrude." Marucho asked.

"Nonsense, you're Alice's friends, so our home is your home." Anna smiled.

"I'll show you kids to your rooms." Yamato said as he lead the Brawlers, Buster and Komodo upstairs.

(In Mei Ling's room)

"You know how you were acting reminds me of your mother when she finds a new woman that catches her attention. You even dangle something he needs just to entice him to play your game just like she did to that spy from a few months ago." Serpillious said

Mei Ling just giggled as took off her shirt revealing her pink bra. "Yeah I remember her. She thought she was clever, thinking she could seduce mom to get information out of her, but in just 3 hours, she was practically screaming everything she knew as she cum practically every minute Mom really took her time and enjoyed her. She was a terrible spy but made a cute maid and a great masseuse, so at least that training she went through was good for something." Mei Ling said, kicking her shoes off and pulling down her pants, revealing matching pink panties.

"Even so, I know you don't get a crush easily. In fact, Shun is one of the rare ones you take an active interest in, and may I ask why?" Serpillious asked out of curiosity.

Mei Ling then put on a white pajama top with red roses as Mei Ling finished dressing with a pair of pajama shorts that practically hugged her waist. "I admire Shun, I've seen many of his battles, his skills with his Bakugan, not just that his martial art skill really impressed me and I just couldn't help but want to spend time with him." as she hugged her body mushing her arms against her breasts imagining Shun below her.

"Besides, my mother has an interest in him so this is me helping her by giving him another reason to work with us by the end of tomorrow night." Mei Ling said

"That and his mother is close to waking up soon." Serpillious added.

Mei Ling finished putting her hair into twin buns. "Oh Yeah I hope mother was able to integrate my suggestions on the changes that would help her?"

"Changes? What changes?" Serpillious asked

"Well, mother saw that bringing her back exactly the same would lead to few complications down the road, especially to her physical health, so she decided to make some improvements to her body and a few to her mind that I know she will love along with other things." Mei Ling said cryptically.

"You didn't suggest what I think you did?" Serpillious asked.

"Well, mother said she understood the pain of a family being broken apart by tragedy and thought that after the pain of their separation one she herself went through and agreed that it would be best to help the two get closer by experiencing a new kind of love together and while also giving her new daughter-in-law to help guide them in it." Mei Ling explained with pride.

"You want to do a threesome with them?" Serpillious asked dryly.

"Maayybbe, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it." Mei Ling smirked.

"Hmmm, that boy isn't getting any sleep tomorrow, is he?" Serpillious muttered.

"He's a trained Ninja, something like this wouldn't bother him in the slightest." Mei Ling stated as she looked into the mirror. She couldn't wait for tomorrow's battle. "Good thing I didn't pack any extra underwear." Mei Ling said to herself, giggling like a schoolgirl as she went to bed.
