Bakugan was my first anime, and I hated to see it go all those years ago. But, its new incarnation, Battle Planet, inspired me to write this story that I have been wanting to for a while. Now, for those of you who read my Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal story Chaos, Order, and Legends, I won't put that story on hold to make this one. Bakugan battles are WAY easier to write than Yu-Gi-oh! Duels, so it won't take too much of my time to write this story. If you're a Zexal fan, I suggest you read it! Now for this story, it is set in the universe of the Battle Brawlers and not the Battle Planet series. It is full of familiar and new Bakugan, as well as a new set of Brawlers, as well as some familiar ones.


Chapter 1: Let the Battle Begin

I know this is gonna sound weird...but one day my whole world changed... You see, strange cards started dropping from the sky, coming down like rain. At first we didn't know where they were all coming from or why...we only knew what they were more than just ordinary playing cards. And it was happening all around the world! From the highest North...to the farthest South...they landed everywhere!
Together everyone, kids and adults, all of us collected the cards and invented a new wicked game called BAKUGAN! But that's when the power of the cards was revealed. Each one held its own battling beast which came to life when you threw it down! The battles were intense, and if you chose the wrong card, you lost it, and the beast inside. But that's only half of the story... Another bigger battle was taking place in a parallel universe called Vestroia...

My name is Alex. And together with my friends Maria, Tyler, Jason, Iris, Trey, and along with my twin sister Aria, we are…

The Bakugan Battle Brawlers!

It had been 6 months since the cards fell from the sky and the Bakugan game was created. Rules were established to make the game fair and fun for everyone playing, even ranking on the top battlers in the world, and the one standing at Rank 121 was Alexander Chase. He really loved the Bakugan game, especially the battles. He liked the intensity and strategy of the game. Alex was 13 years old, a brunet with a small ponytail in the back of his head, and had emerald eyes. He was wearing an open red jacket short sleeve with a black shirt, blue jeans and white shoes, red fingerless gloves, a red punk bracelet on his right wrist, and a red and white cap. He was heading home after winning a major brawl against a guy at his school today, bumping him up two whole rankings.

Alex burst through the door and headed straight for the fridge. After his snack he noticed his father, Richard, in his computer in the home office. Richard was a tall man who had blonde hair and a beard, plus blue eyes. "Hey dad. Where's mom?" Alex asked his father.

Richard turned around. "Oh, your mother's at the hospital checking on Aria's condition."

Alex's twin sister Ariana was in the hospital for the past five months. "So, how's her condition?" Alex asked his dad.

"Well, Hailey said your sister's charts are steady, and might be ready to come home in a couple weeks. But, we don't want to be too hopeful." Richard said, referring to that two months ago when Aria was in recovery from her illness, she took a drastic turn for the worst.

"I know. But, I really want her to come home." Alex then went up to his room and saw he had an e mail on his BakuPod. It was an invitation for a rematch from Even, the guy he beat earlier today. "Hmm, I guess I could go for another easy victory." Alex then opened his desk and pulled out his stash of Bakugan. "Okay, I could use my Serponoid, my Griffon, oh, and my Robotallion." Alex said as he chose his Bakugan.

He took his bike and rode all the way to Baymax City park. When he got there, he saw Even leaning on a park bench. "Look who showed up." Even said as he stood up.

"What, did you think I wouldn't show because it was too easy to defeat you last time?" Alex taunted.

"Oh your battle isn't with him." A voice said.

Alex looked, and behind Evan was a large man in his mid-twenties. "Who's that?"

"This is my older brother, Markus." Even said.

"So what, you brought your bother as back up?" Alex asked.

"Oh, I'm not here to back up my brother, I can take you on all by myself." Markus said.

"Oh really, well we'll see about that!" Alex then reached into his card case, as he did the water fountain turned on and a flock of pidgin flew by.

Both he and Markus pulled out a Field Card and they flipped them over. "Bakugan, Field Open!" They said this as their cards glowed, Alex's red, Markus's brown, and a hexagonal circle with the six attributes appeared under both of them as it rotated and times slowed around them until it stopped completely. The two of them were transported into the Battle Field. The two of them pulled out a Gate Card. "Gate Card, set!" They each threw out their Gate Card s onto the field, then the cards glowed and grew.

"Ready or not, here I come!" Markus held out a brown Bakugan. "Bakugan Brawel!" He threw it out onto the Gate Card, landing on his. "Bakugan Stand! Subterra Mantris!" The Bakugan popped open and on the field came a large mantis like creature.

"Woah, freaky!" Alex remarked as he saw the large bug. He activated his red BakuPod.

Subterra Mantris: Power Level 290 Gs

"Hmm, 290 Gs. I better go with my Serpenoid." Alex pulled out his Bakugan. "Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Pyrus Serpenoid!" Alex threw out his Bakugan, and when it stood, a large red snake came out to play.

Pyrus Serpenoid: 320 Gs

"Battle!" Both Alex and Markus said. Mantris tried to slice Serpenoid, only to miss and was then coiled up by Serpenoid.

"Alright!" Alex said as his Bakugan was winning.

Markus then made an evil smile. "Gate Card open up! NOW!" His Gate Card then glowed brownish orange and then the ground slowly turned to sand and behind both him and Alex pyramids appeared.

"Oh no." Alex said as he knew that this was an Attribute Card, which boosts the power of Bakugan with specific attributes, in this case Subterra. Alex looked at his BakuPod and saw that Mantris was getting stronger.

Mantris 290 + 120 = 410 Gs

"Oh snap!" Alex said as Mantris broke free of Serponoid's coils and gave it a big slice of its blades. Serponoid then glowed red and turned back into a ball and flew back to Alex's feet.

Mantris cried victoriously and glowed as it too turned back into a ball and returned to Markus's hand as the ground returned to normal and his Gate Card disappeared. "Hah, and to think you were hot stuff."

"Oh, you defeated one of my Bakugan! You still have two left to defeat." Alex said.

"No problem. Gate Card Set!" Markus threw his second Gate Card on the right of Alex's first Gate Card. "Bakugan Brawl!" Markus threw his second Bakugan onto Alex's Gate Card. "Terrorclaw Stand!" Markus's second Bakugan was a large crab with huge claws.

Subterra Terrorclaw 320 Gs

"Alright, Bakugan Brawl!" Alex threw his second Bakugan. "Bakugan Stand! Robotallion!" Alex's Bakugan was a large humanoid robot.

Pyrus Robotallion 330 Gs

"Gate Card Open!" Alex said as he activated his own Attribute Card.

Robotallion 330 + 150 = 480 Gs

"With that I win this Brawl!" Alex said as his Robotallion power up as the field filled with fire.

Markus just laughed as he held up an Ability Card. "Ability Card Activate! Magma Prominence!" He threw his card into the fire, then the fire disappeared and the ground turned to sand. "With this card, I can change any Gate Card's Attribute to Subterra! Meaning I now have the advantage!"

Robotallion 480 – 150 = 330 Gs. Terrorclaw 320 + 150 = 470 Gs

"Go Terrorclaw!" Markus's Bakugan pinned down Robotallion and crushed it, defeating it. Both Bakugan returned to their owners.

"Aw man!" Alex said as was down to his last Bakugan.

"Ha! You only have one Bakugan left!" Markus taunted.

"He, don't count me out just yet!" Alex said.

"Whatever, Bakugan Brawl!" Markus said as he threw his Terrorclaw onto his second Gate Card.

Terrorclaw 320 Gs

"Gate Card, Set!" Alex said as he threw his second Gate Card where is first one was. "Bakugan Brawl!" Alex shot his third and final Bakugan onto his own Gate Card. "Griffon Stand!" Alex's final Bakugan, despite the name, looked more like a chimera, with the lion head, goat back only scales not fur, and head of a snake for a tail, it also had large wings on its back and gave a ferocious roar.

Pyrus Griffon 330 Gs

"Alright, Bakugan Brawl!" Markus said as he threw his third Bakugan. "Centipoid Stand!" Markus's Bakugan was a large centipede with two shields on its back and huge pincers.

Subterra Centipoid 310 Gs

Ability Card Activate! Attractor!" Markus said as his ability card glowed. The ground beneath Terrorclaw glowed and it sunk into the ground, then Terrorclaw reappeared next to Centipoid.

Centipoid and Terrorclaw combined power 630 Gs

"Ha! Good luck having an attribute boost to match that!" Markus taunted.

Alex smiled. "True, but that is not and Attribute Card! Gate Card Open! Character!" Alex opened his Gate Card, which showed a large picture of Griffon. Unlike the previous Gate Cards, which adds power based on attribute, but a Character Card boosts power base on the Bakugan's name.

Griffon 330 X 2 = 660 Gs

"Oh crap!" Markus said as Griffon powered up.

"Go Griffon!" Alex said as Griffon first picked up Terrorclaw, then dropped it on Centipoid, defeating both of them.

"Argh!" Markus grunted as his two Bakugan fell at his feet.

"Two birds with one stone, or more like two bugs with one Griffon!" Alex said as Griffon returned to his hand.

"All right, Bakugan Brawl!" Markus threw his final Bakugan onto his Gate Card, standing his Mantris.

Mantris 290 Gs

"Okay, Bakugan Brawl! Pyrus Griffon Stand!" Alex threw his last Bakugan onto the Gate Card.

"Gate Card Open!" Markus opened his Gate Card, another Attribute Card, turning the ground to sand.

Mantris 290 + 100 = 390 Gs

Mantris and Griffon battled, but Mantris was over powering Griffon. "Okay, how about this!" Alex held up and Ability Card. "Ability Card Activate! Correlation Between Pyrus and Subterra!" The picture on the open Ability Card showed the Attribute Circle, high lighting the Pyrus and Subterra Attributes.

Griffon 330 + 100 = 430 Gs

"What the-" Markus remarked.

"Hah! See, some Ability Cards rely on the opponents' Attribute! And since mine is Pyrus, it can gain a 100 Gs when battling a Subterra Bakugan!" Alex said as his Griffon powered up and took control of the battle.

"Not so fast! Ability Activate, Slice Cutter!" Markus activated his final Ability Card. Mantris's blades glowed and shot an X at Griffon.

Griffon 430 – 50 = 380

"Wow I'm impressed." Alex said sarcastically as he held his own Ability Card. "But you're not the only one with an ace. Ability Activate Fire Tornado!" Alex activated his last Ability Card, and Griffon then became surrounded by a, well, fire tornado which bounced the glowing X right off.

Griffon 380 + 100 = 480 Gs, Mantris 390 – 100 = 290 Gs

"Oh no!" Markus said as his Mantris became smothered in Griffon's flames, finally being defeated and went back to Markus's feet.

"Alright!" Alex said as his winning Griffon returned to him.

The field around them disappeared and they returned to the exact moment that they started when they activated their Field Cards.

Evan saw his brother on the ground next to his defeated Bakugan. "What's the matter with you?! You promised you could beat him!" Evan scolded his brother.

"Sorry bro, but his Bakugan were both figuratively and literally!" Markus defended himself as he picked up his Bakugan.

Alex smiled. "Your good, but good enough to beat me!" Alex said.

Later that night Alex was bragging about his victories to his online friends. "And then, I finished him off with my secret weapon; Fire Tornado, and finished him off! Man you should have seen me!" Alex ranted about his victory. "But, what do you expect when you test the best!"

"Whatever. I just checked the World Rankings and you're at 121!" Alex's friend Maria Saldona said. She was 15 years old, had pale-ish skin and red hair has was in a side ponytail she kept on the left side of her head, tied with a white ribbon, and had crystal blue eyes. She wore a yellow shirt that drapes off her right shoulder, and a white miniskirt, and blue shoes. She also has a long necklace with several stars on it, as well as hoop earrings.

"What? I defeated two people in one day, so I must have moved up!" Alex pulled up the World Rankings and scrolled to his previous Rank and moved up, finally seeing his new Ranking of 117. "Hah! I'm at 117! Eat that Maria."

Maria grunted. "Whatever! You should hold your bragging until you are in the double digits." Maria said.

"Oh whatever!" Alex said, then giving Maria a raspberry.

"Oh that's real mature!" Maria said.

"Come on guys, moving up four whole Ranking in one day is a big deal!" Jason Tyner said. Jason was 17, the oldest in the group, with a Southern account, Texan specifically. He has curly light blond hair and silvery eyes. He wears a classic cowboy hat, a brown short sleeve shirt, orange bandanna around his neck, and he has blue jeans with torn knees and black cowboy boots

"I agree! The most I've ever come up was two!" Trey said. Trey at 10 years was youngest of the group, He has light colored hair, almost white, that covers his jacket collar and shimmering green eyes. He wears a white long sleeve jacket, white zipper pants shorts, and blue shoes, and the inside of his jacket is blue too.

"Well you live all the way up North so there aren't many challengers up there right?" Tyler Feris said. Tyler was 14, has light brown hair and keeps it short, his eyes are green like sea foam. He wears a collared blue t shirt, white pants, and black shoes. He wears thin rimmed glasses, and his shirt has a pocket with a silver pen in it.

"Are you saying that I won't make it to the high Ranking?!" Trey yelled.

"Oh no! I'm just saying that it might take a while." Tyler said.

"Oh but you won't, what with your traveling family, you will never run out of fresh Brawlers!" Trey yelled.

Just then, another person entered the chat room. It was Iris Shade. Iris was 16, is of Asian descent, has black hair with several green highlights, keeps it in a braid that starts on the top of her head and stops just below her waist, and keeps a fake feather in the hair tie at the end covering the tips of her hair. Her eyes are brown, and she wears a shoulderless long sleeve dark green shirt, and baggy tan shorts, and black shoes, also has light green wrist bands. "Sorry I'm late. Training was a bitch today." Iris said.

"Oh, and which of your twenty martial arts did you practice today?" Alex asked.

"I only know ten martial arts, and six sub categories, but today it was Dim Mak, the technique that involves immobilizing opponents by hitting their muscle and nerve pressure points, in some cases even kill." Iris said.

"Girl, seriously you know how kill a person with your bare hands like a hundred ways!" Maria said.

"109 actually, not including my weapons training." Iris said as if it was no big deal that she was a one woman killing machine!

"Well Iris, to catch you up we're discussing my moving up to Rank 117!" Alex said with enthusiasm.

"Oh that's cool!" Iris said.

"Alex, your mother's home!" Alex's father yelled.

"Guys, I gotta go. Talk to you tomorrow." Alex said.

"Okay, bye Alex." Maria said, so did the others.

Alex turned off the computer and walked down stairs to see his mother.

"Hey Alex." Alex's mother, Hailey, said. Alex looked like his mother with her brown hair and green eyes.

"Hey mom. How's Aria doing?" Alex asked about his sister.

"Well, she's been stable for the past few weeks so the doctors say she'll be able to come home soon." Hailey said to her son.

"That's good news." Alex said.


In another world, in another dimension, a battle was taking place in the realm of Vestroia, the home dimension of the Bakugan. It was consistent to six attributed worlds; Subterra, the earth element, Haos, the light element, Darkus, the dark element, Aquos, the water element, Ventus, the wind element, and Pyrus, the fire element.

In Pyrus, two dragons were arguing. The white one was flying when the red one flew in front.

"Wait Naga!" The red dragon said.

"Out of way Drago!" The white one, Naga, yelled.

"Why do you crave so much power? You know that absorbing too much will lead to your own destruction!" Drago yelled.

"Be quiet! You don't what it's like being born powerless! And I will do anything to get it!" Naga said.

"I suspect that you are behind that human called Michael." Drago said. "What I would like to know is, where did you even find him?"

Naga laughed and held a card, a Gate Card, in his claws. "Do you know what this is?" He then threw the card, and a portal with the same design as the back of the card opened.

"A portal?!" Drago said in both shock and amazement.

"Yes!" Naga then flew into the portal. "It leads to the source of the power, at the center!" Naha said as the portal closed.

"But that means-?!" Drago said as he realized what Naga meant. "NAGA!"


On Earth, Alex was in the hospital visiting his sister, Aria. Aria looked like their father, with her blonde hair, which had a small braid on the right side, and her eyes were bright blue. You compare the two, not just appearances, but everything, and you couldn't tell the two were even siblings, much less twins. Although she was wearing hospital clothes, she did have a punk bracelet on her left wrist, like Alex's, only hers was purple.

"So you beat two guy yesterday, that's cool." Aria said. "I wish I could Brawl." She said as she held a Field Card in her hand.

"Aw don't worry! You'll be outta here soon! Till then," Alex pulled out a box. "I brought your Bakugan."

Aria pulled a smile. "Oh, thank you!" Aria said. "I collected these before…" Aria then frowned, referring to what landed her in the hospital. "Anyway, thanks. This will give me some time to work out strategies, so I can start Brawling as soon as I get out of here!" Aria said.

"Yeah, well I gotta get home." Alex said as he grabbed his backpack. "See you later. Oh, and come into the chat room tonight."

"Okay." Aria said as she opened her box.

On his way home Alex saw Evan and Markus standing in front of him. "What are you two doing here?"

"Well, I heard from school your sister was that hospital, so we figured you would take this path." Evan said.

"Okay, but what do you want?" Alex said.

"What do you think?! A rematch!" Markus snapped.

"Are you sure wanna relive that defeat again?" Alex taunted.

"Just shut it and get to Brawlin!" Markus said as he drew his field card.

"Fine." Alex drew his Field Card.

"Bakugan Field Open!" They said as they flipped their Field Cards, with Markus's being purple instead of orange like before. Time froze and the field appeared. "Gate Card Set!" The two players set their Gate Cards, with Markus's card being purple.

"You're toast. Bakugan Brawl!" Markus threw his first Bakugan. "Darkus Jelldon Stand!" Markus's new Bakugan was a large purple/black jellyfish with multiple eyes.

Darkus Jelldon 310 Gs

"Wait, how you get your hands on a Darkus Bakugan?" Alex wondered.

"Oh, I'll use any attribute that I can to win!" Markus said.

"Okay, well, Bakugan Brawl!" Alex threw his Bakugan under Jelldon, landing it on his own Gate Card. "Bakugan Stand! Go Pyrus Saurus!" Alex's Bakugan was a humanoid triceratops with armor like plates.

Pyrus Saurus 290 Gs

'While my Saurus is low on power, I just need to boost it with the Attribute Card, and my Saurus will trump any Bakugan he throws at me.' Alex thought to himself.

"Bakugan Brawl!" Markus threw his second Bakugan onto Alex's card. "Stand Darkus Siege!" His next Bakugan was a purple/black large knight with a spear that had a large blade at the end.

Darkus Siege 320 Gs

"Alright Gate Card Open!" Alex said as he opened his Gate Card, which created large flames, and powered up Saurus.

Saurus 290 + 200 = 490 Gs

"Okay Saurus, take out his Siege!" Alex said. His Saurus charged at Siege.

"Not so fast! Ability Card Activate! Dimension Four!" Markus used a Darkus Ability Card, which caused the flames to me smothered, cancelling the Gate Card.

Saurus 490 – 200 = 290

"Now my Siege has the upper hand!" Markus said as his Siege sliced Saurus, causing it to revert back to ball form.

"And that's that!" Markus said as his Siege returned to him.

"Okay, Bakugan Brawl!" Alex shoot his second Bakugan. "Bakugan Stand! Go Pyrus Serponoid!" Alex's serpent Bakugan stood and snapped at Jelldon.

Sepronoid 330 Gs

"Gate Card Open!" Markus opened his own Attribute Card, causing the field to go dark.

Jelldon 310 + 150 = 460 Gs

"Now crust that snake!" Markus said as his Jelldon tried to wrap its tentacles around Serponoid.

"Not so fast!" Alex held an Ability Card. "Ability Card Activate! Backfire!" Alex tossed his glowing Ability Card am the Gate Card went up in flames, nullifying it.

Jelldon 460 – 150 = 310

"Now Serponoid!" Alex said. His Bakugan wrapped around Jelldon, squeezing it, defeating it.

"Argh!" Markus grunted.

"Alright, now we're even!" Alex said as his Serponoid returned.

"Not for long!" Markus said as they both threw down new Gate Cards.


Back in Vestroia, Naga had portaled out of Pyrus, and to the center of Vestroia.

"Yes!" Naga said. "I have reached the center of Vestroia!" Naga looked at the two Cores circling each other. "The two conflicting forces that keep Vestroia in balance; Infinity and Silence, Positive and Negative." Naga flew up to the Silent Core and started to absorb its energy. "This negative energy from the Silent Core feels good. I'm sure the Infinity Corse feels even better! And once I have both I'll-" Naga's body then became over flown with power, too much power. "Nooo! I didn't expect the negative energy from the Silent Core to be this great!" He was then pull face to face with the Core. "Nooo! Its absorbing meeee!" Naga was then absorbed into the Silent Core, and when he was, a large energy wave blasted from it.

The shock wave sent the Infinity Core, not just flying, but blasting! The Infinity Core broke through the dimensional barrier and went through a portal. Without the counter acting positive energy form the Infinity Core, the negative energy of the Silent Core was overflowing, and it affected all the Bakugan in Vestroia.

On Pyrus, Drago felt the negative energy. "What's happening?!" Drago looked up and saw that the area around his was transforming into cards. "Naga! This must be Naga!" Drago looked up, and saw that from the area that was turned into cards, and from it, a humanoid Bakugan with large claws, a Fear Ripper, charging at him. Drago moved and the charging Bakugan missed him, but then when it looked back at him, Drago realized it wasn't a Pyrus Fear Ripper. "Why is there a Darkus Bakugan in Pyrus space?" The Fear Ripper charged again and again at Drago.

On Earth, in the middle of Alex's battle, shock waves were being felt. Alex looked up and all of the sudden, he was surrounded by flames. "What is this place?" Alex thought. He then looked and saw two Bakugan fighting. The red dragon one and him locked yes on one another. "What the?!" Alex said, then he was back in the battle he and Markus were having. "What was that?!"

"Hey quit day dreaming!" Markus yelled. Both his Siege and Alex's Serponoid were battling. "Darkus Siege attack!" Markus commanded. His Siege tried to slice Serponoid, but misses. Then Serponoid slithered up Siege's staff and coiled around him. "What?!" Markus yelled as his Bakugan was now helpless.

"Not so confident now are you Markus! Command Card, Quartet Battle Activate, NOW!" Alex said. Unlike the Attribute and Character Cards, which boost a Bakugan's power, Command Cards have special effect, like the Quartet Battle Card. It adds one Bakugan from each player into the battle. "Get ready Markus, because a few more Bakugan have just been invited to the party!" Alex said as his Gate Card Opened.

In Vestroia, Drago and Fear Ripper were still battling. Then they glowed and were transported.

In the battle, new Ability Cards formed in Alex and Markus's hands. "Whoa, what is this?" Alex said. When the card stopped glowing, it opened and a Bakugan flew out and onto the Gate Card, same as Markus. Alex looked at the card's illustration and text. "'Booted Dragon'? Wait, isn't that a…a Dragonoid's Ability Card?!"

Alex and Markus's two new Bakugan rolled on to the Gate Card and opened up. When they Stood, Alex realized that they were the same two Bakugan from his vision. "Whoa! Those are the same Bakugan that I saw in my vision!"

"You must come to your senses!" A deep voice said.

"What the? Who said that?" Alex looked around for the source of the voice.

"Fear Ripper, snap out of it!" The voice said again.

Alex looked up. "Wait, was it you?" Alex said to the Dragonoid.

"Snap out of it! You can't win Fear Ripper!" Drago said to Fear Ripper.

"Are my ears playing tricks on me now?" Alex said.

Drago was face to face with Fear Ripper. "The negative energy of the Silent Core has taken over your mind!" Drago saw the savage look in Fear Ripper's eyes and kicked him away. "You leave no choice! Boosted Dragon!" Drago spat a fire ball at Fear Ripper, ending the battle.

Time started again and Markus was on the ground picking up his defeated Bakugan. "Mark my words kid, your days are numbered!" Markus ran off with Evan behind him.

"Just, what was that?" Alex said as he looked at the Dragonoid in his hand.

That night Alex was sitting on his bed holding his new Bakugan. "Come on talk to me! Please!" Alex said to his Bakugan, but no response. "This is too weird. I could have sworn I heard it talk, right?" Alex put his Bakugan up to his ear, but nothing. "Oh man, I must be losing it. But I'm sure I heard it talk. And that vision." Alex shook his head. "Ah, whatever. Well, since this is a Dagonoid, I'll call you Drago!" Alex said to his Bakugan as he put it on his window sill. "Well, better go check on my friends. Man, can't believe I thought I heard it talk." Said as he walked to his computer.

Once Alex stared his computer, he saw that all five of his friends were online, but not his sister. "Oh Alex you're finally here!" Tyler said.

"Hey guys. Oh, you're not gonna believe this! See today I had a rematch against Markus, and got a new Bakugan, a Dragonoid, during the battle!" Alex said.

"Awesome man!" Jason said.

"Wait, so you just got a new Bakugan right in the middle of the Brawl?" Iris asked.

"Oh yeah! And get this, I thought I heard it talk!" Alex said.

"Wait, you heard your Bakugan speak too?!" Maria asked.

Alex was shocked. "Hold on, are you saying someone else heard their Bakugan speak too?" Alex grew curious.

"You're kidding right? It's all over the web!" Trey said.

Alex looked it up, and sure enough, dozens of people are claiming that their Bakugan spoke to them. 'Wait, so it did talk!' Alex thought. He then looked at Drago. "Maybe there to the Bakugan than we originally though!"


Author's Notes:

Well, well, what did you think?! Even after 12 years it still has a loyal fan base, present company included! I love this series more than the new one, mostly because the Battle Planet ones are way too mech for me. They enter more Mechanical Bakugan territory that those like Robotallion or Laserman. But I also miss the Ability Card cut ins. And a personal note, my first Bakugan was actually a Fear Ripper! A Ventus, but still a Fear Ripper. Many more Brawls to come! Until next time, Bakugan Brawl!
