Episode 8: Stormfront

[Seiki Maki]

Seiki looked at the two brawlers and nodded at them, "Sounds nice! For some it's a loss of pride or some sort, but in your case it's pretty urgent. You guys should hit the road now, I don't need you guys getting harmed when there are tougher battles out there to fight."

Ahio on the field was analyzing the bakugan flying in the air, and methods on how to attack them and such with her many feather blades floating around her as she stood on the ground with her grand wings open to make herself look at least a bit more threatening to her many opponents, which she was to face shortly. "I'm ready when you are Seiki!" The ventus bird calls out, flapping her wings a bit.

Makoto was unfazed by the numerous feathers Ahio had at her disposal. Asmodeus shared his opinion and simply thought of it as a disturbance than an actual threat. Upon hearing Allen's resolve, Makoto knew that his opponents were running thin on any remaining options to win the battle since he was continuously placing the three on the defensive since Gargulion did not have enough remaining strength to provide adequate help for Allen. Due to this, he believed there was nothing holding him back from attempting to kill them all despite the fact that Nero did not authorize this action.

He activated an ability called Berserk Thunder. This ability, which was unique to Asmodeus and the combined energy of his army, caused thunder clouds to hover over the horizon and made the surrounding area dark. Lightning bolts began to strike across the surrounding area, catching innocent civilians in the attack. A giant bolt was saved for his three opponents, and it was the most powerful of all the strikes Asmodeus used. Allen immediately got defensive and activated Richter Blockade. Gorem picked up a huge chunk of earth from the ground and charged it with energy. He placed it over everyone's head and told them to brace themselves. The lightning bolt crashed on top of them and drove them into the ground; however, Gorem's defense was able to guarantee their survival while remaining unscathed.

The local authorities arrived and began surrounding the entire school arena. Makoto decided that their source of entertainment had been cut short and were forced to make their exit. Asmodeon recalled his forces and disappeared with Makoto to an unknown location through a portal opened by unexplained means. The police entered the facility and found a huge crater left by Asmodeon's final attack; the three brawlers and their Bakugan were seen returning to the surface after surviving the ordeal and were immediately questioned upon their return.

The evidence they gathered matched similar results to the situation that occurred in Noland's area and raised concerns about the enemy they were facing. No one had any sufficient evidence to deduce what those people are after, so they decided to focus on how to stop them. Although brawling was something Allen really wanted to do, he sat down on a bench looking gloomy over this situation. He thought about what happened in the last couple of days and asked himself if what him and Noland went through before ended up pulling them back into the chaos years later.
