Clearly disgruntled with what happened at the Silver Knights Headquarters, the higher-ups assembled every Knight together in the same place - their presentation hall - for them to discuss their procedure in ensuring Vestal didn't get away with what they've done. Lydia and her medical team from Eden were also in attendance to update everyone about the state of those who are infected with Hurranians. Much to Alex's dismay, the masked person from before was also there vouching for Maria on the information recorded on the Hurranians master plan and the Vestal's arms race.
Before they could start the proceedings, a dimensional portal opened towards the center of the room where those in authority were seated. Vince and a humanoid clothed in a Pyrus robe came out of the portal. At first, some of the Knights got antsy and threatened him before they realized who he was. Once Vince's identity was uncovered, everyone there looked on in shock and amazement.

I am the perfection. "Interesting..." Lydia commented as she typed on her laptop detecting person's DNA code. It did not take a second to find a connection between Noland's DNA and his; this person truly was Vince Hardy, Noland's father.
She, like the most, believed that Vince was lost forever once he was sent to the Doom Dimension during the great battle. It was a relief to her to see that another soul survived the trip to that asylum of abyss and plus it was another strong brawler back in action...maybe.
"I don't know what to say...welcome back, sir." Lydia said and bowed greeting the returning legend before stepping away to go on with her work that was given to her by leader Irene. She sat on a chair and put the laptop on the table continuing with her regular work. She would have been much more excited to see someone strong coming, but at times like those she did not find many things to be happy about which seriously worried her Bakugan and Daniel who decided to watch over her.

Listen to howl of our souls Alex looked at the commotion from the distance with Dante on his shoulder. "You're not joining?" Dante curiously inquired if Alex was going to meet and greet Vince as well, but it did not seem like Alex was intending to move from the comfortable wall he's been sitting on. "..." Alex did not reply to that, but just gazed as if he was not paying attention to what Dante had to say.
"Is there a problem?" Dante asked again, but this time he was little bit concerned. Alex was surprisingly the only one among three siblings who did not shed a single tear after he had to watch his father and mother being taken away from him for the second time. "I'm tired..." Alex quietly replied. "I see...you should ask for a day off..." Dante did not know what to say, so he randomly answered with that.
"I'm tired of this...all this..." Alex added in a quiet and annoyed tone.
"I'd better go somewhere before Admiral Brain-killer decides I should do some crazy errand for her." Alex said and then started walking towards the door in the nearby. Marshal and Admiral Asuka did not appear...If this was so important then they should have been there. That poked Alex's curiosity.
However, he wanted to get out of the place before Maria forced him to get her food or asked him to act like a kid and 'swing around' all those 'important people' like Vince.

We Are Monsters Daniel was passing through the crowd and observing all the commotion. He normally would not want to get out of his room during his free time because he preferred some peace and quiet, but screw that since they were all forced to come.
"I don't see any of the Reapers..." He said in annoyance seeing that no one from Grim Reapers was there; they probably did not even show up or were on some other mission. With all those terrorists around it would be most probable, but even Daniel would rather go chase terrorists instead of listening to a potentially long speech about something he won't appreciate in the first place.
Kuzuha was on his left shoulder and Wolveride on his right as he walked through the crowd and reached the place where Vince was. "Hero's father himself came here... Heh, at least something useful is going on..." Daniel said. From what Daniel remembered Vince was pulled into the Doom Dimension; quite a strong-willed person that is if he can endure the influence of that hell. Daniel assumed Vince was a strong brawler considering how strong Noland was and even though he wanted to see it for himself he guessed there would probably be no opportunity for such thing.
"Why don't we go and say 'hi', kid? He is your savior's father." Wolveride asked. Noland had crucial impact on why Daniel is alive, so Wolveride guessed Daniel would want to express 'something'. "I'm not good at those, thanks." Daniel coldly replied and then headed towards where Alex was intercepting Alex's path outside the room.
"Lighten up or you might die before you've been planning to." Daniel jokingly said to Alex who was acting all dark and grim while standing on the side. He assumed Alex was running away from 'Miss Maria The Reaper' who would mostly likely take his soul out and trade it for a bag of candy.

To the well organized mind, death is but the next great adventure
Maria was still training to evolve Zero Hydranoid when Vince disappeared into the Doom Dimension. She heard a lot about him from her superiors back then, but never got to meet him and she considered his 'death' to be a very tragic loss. She never expected to have him back like that and right in the middle of their business.
Except for having a strong and respected brawler back Maria thought this would work positively for Noland since he got a very rough and sudden goodbye when Vince disappeared.
Maria approached Vince to introduce herself and since there were no others of her rank around she decided she would represent the organization instead. Not that she minded it or anything; she is always excited to meet famous people who have deserved their fame and titles, like Vince. Not like many goofballs on the TV.
"It is an honor to meet you, sir. We, Silver Knights, are honored to have you here." She said and smiled. "Please, make yourselves at home." She added. She did not try to hide her respect towards one of the greatest brawlers alive; not after everything he went through and came back alive.
"There are so many questions, but that aside... Is there something you need from us?" Maria asked knowing Vince would not just appear out of nowhere for no good reason and she had a few assumptions of why he might have come there.
"I answer terror with terror."

Apollonir looked at Vince like he was some hero. The automatic respect he got just by showing up was astounding. "Look at you. They're still calling you 'sir' as well."
Vince smiled after the overwhelming acceptance here, despite the fact Apollonir nearly got them roasted as soon as they arrived. "I suppose there is one thing you can do for me," Vince answered to Maria. "You can tell whoever's in charge of recruiting to not message me again now that I'm back."
Now actually being serious about what he was doing there, "Thanks for the warm welcome back. It's a pleasure to meet you all as well. I apologize for the sudden intrusion on your gathering. Everyone who uses dimensional travel must suck beyond reason right now. I never intended on causing an interruption."
"It's not like they started..." Apollonir said as an excuse.
"Anyway...I'm guessing one of your questions would be what happened to the Resistors. They were with me and the Legendary Soldiers of Vestroia, one of which is standing right beside me."
"Yes...I am Apollonir, the leader of the Legendary Soldiers of Vestroia who fought long ago to purge this madness we call Hurranians. There is much we have to discuss here."

"No need to apologize. It is actually a perfect timing. Wouldn't be bad to include you as well." Maria replied. Timing could not be better considering that Knights were going to devise a plan of action soon and needed every capable fighter on their side to assist, so there would be less complications in future fights. Also, everyone's unique knowledge on the situation would be very helpful as well to reduce the complications.
"That is a relief. Now we can fully concentrate on our primary mission. Indeed, there are lots of things we need to discuss." Maria said with a sigh of relief that Resistors were not in any danger; the fact that they just disappeared got her worried, but now that was not on the list of issues anymore. "It is an honor to have one of the Legendary Soldiers here." Maria admitted. It was her Hydranoid who taught her about those six Bakugans and powers they packed. "Perhaps we should wait for Resistors before continuing." She wondered.

When Maria implied that it was okay to bring the Resistors back in, Apollonir started the process of pulling them back. Altogether, they appeared in the room alongside their attribute's respective soldier, Noland being the only exception. The Legendary Soldiers altered their appearance to match that of Apollonir's. They each had robes and a mask to cover their faces. They also had their own attribute symbols attached on their clothing so that others would know what they identified as if they were not smart enough to know based on their coloration.
That all seemed to work fine until they all realized a detail that was off: the Resistors appeared in the air rather than the floor. The Legendary Soldiers watched as everyone plummeted back to the ground.
The one case where a fall had to be recognized was Noland's. He didn't fall straight to the floor like everyone else did. He fell on top of someone...
Literally the one person in the room that may get pissed off and hurt someone for it...Maria...
"Dammit, Oberus! You did that on purpose! You know they can't fly! That's why I should've done it this time!" Exedra called out.
"Well, I'm sorry! The ground appeared a bit farther than what I'm used to. If you want to complain so much, you should've taken the initiative instead of sleeping all the time!" Oberus snapped back.
"Do we really have to argue every time we see each other?" Lars Lion inquired. "Oh...what's this?" She was distracted by who Noland landed on. The positioning was quite interesting, not that she was going to make fun of him for it or anything.

Well, that was unexpected... And a little awkward... a lot actually. Resistors appeared out of nowhere and landed on the ground. Noland, being leader of Resistors, had a specially privilege of landing on Maria who has been in the middle of the conversation with Vince at that moment.
"Owww..." Maria did not expect that one for sure; she fell on the ground after Noland landed on her from nowhere. "Huh...?" She was still confused of what happened as she assumed Resistors would appear in a more appropriate way and not by falling from out of nowhere.
"You sure know how to pick an aircushion." She tried to joke about it, but it wasn't quite comfortable to continue while on the ground. She slowly got up and wiped the dust off her clothes and tried to pretend it didn't happen. "You're lucky we're busy here already..." Maria said to Noland who was still on the ground and then she crouched to whisper something to him. "...but after we're done here we'll have to check if you'll remain that lucky." She whispered with a mix of annoyance that Noland landed like that and a bit of joy that she can use her punishment methods on someone.
"*cough* *cough*...We are glad to have you back, Resistors. I believe the time to start planning our next move is here." Maria suddenly said still trying to act as nothing has happened. If it was not such a full room she wouldn't have to act anything. Perhaps their planning could start now that Resistors were finally back.

YITA AILEEN NYX  Hao "Spartan" Something just didn't feel right. It was good, but had that hint of bad-ness to it. Yita was racing over to the Silver Knights headquarter where she had definitely sensed Noland for sure. The sense was so strong that her pigtails kinda flung up at the realization and quickly called Neri to take her to the HQ. Much to Neri's dismay, she couldn't even nab a snack on the way out.
"Take a left... Here!" Neri takes a sharp turn around a corner, a drift almost before talking a few steps and stopping seeing that they had reached their destination. "I knew it!" The Spartan says as she gracefully hops off of her mount and practically throws herself to Noland. The force made the two of them slide across the ground a bit, away form Maria which Yita could practically smell all over Noland. She then leans in to kiss-

His cheek.
"I was really worried for you Noland!" She coos, embracing him in a hug. "I'l continue to watch over my darling." ► kaigra ◄ |

To the well organized mind, death is but the next great adventure
Maria was ready to continue with the business when nuisance from before appeared out of nowhere to cherish Noland at the wrong place in the wrong time. Maria started to get a bit annoyed. Wait, not a bit. She got really annoyed. Her face was going red of all the annoyance. It was only a matter of time before steam starts coming out of her ears. First Noland landed on her and now Yita came uninvited.
"That is quite ENOUGH!!" She yelled finally losing her cool there. "I organized this gathering for a serious purpose and not a bunch of kids making a sitcom out of it. " She angrily said trying to release all that pressure that gathered inside her head. It looked more like a comedy show than some serious gathering and now she started losing her temper.
Maria angrily rushed towards the locker on the wall and suddenly pulled something out if it and turned back. She held duct tape and scissors in her hands. With a few swifts movements she cut a few meters of the duct tape.
She rushed towards Yita and tied her to Neri's back with the duct tape.
After that Zero Hydranoid emerged from her orb form. She grabbed Neri who had Yita attached to her now and she flew out of the HQ through the roof exit that opened upon recognizing Hydranoid.
"Bye!" Hydranoid said and casually tossed Neri into the distance with full force. With that force Neri and Yita started sinking into the distance until they finally disappeared in the horizon. Roof exit closed upon Hydranoid's return. Maria let out a painful sigh and said in annoyance: "Any more funny stuff someone would like to share? I have plenty of duct tape in store." She strictly said looking around and listening to 'dead silence' of terrified viewers. "Okay, then. Should we get to the business, now?"
"I answer terror with terror."

Explanations were not needed to describe how Noland felt about what just happened to him. The thought of incurring Maria's wrath even though it wasn't his fault that she was his landing pad scared him after he saw what happened to Yita. He had a blank expression on his face, not wanting to piss her off anymore.
He quietly directed himself over to where the Resistors were standing. He chose not to stand in front of them or even beside them. He stationed himself behind the last person in line and was content on staying there for the rest of the time so he had a chance to run when the meeting was over. He hung his head down, trying to hide the chibi look of disappointment.
The only one out of the duo to find this situation comical was Drago. He was laughing at Noland until he caught a glimpse of Maria's glare. He suddenly stopped then, not wanting to be next for making more noise.

Vince was wondering who this new girlfriend of Noland's was. He wasn't sure whether he had a problem with the apparent level of creepiness Yita to had to be able to detect Noland's presence in this way. The Resistors were completely flabbergasted like they wanted to hang their mouths open, and for good reason. They get dropped off - literally, witness Noland being violated again, and Maria having a fit, and they didn't even know what was going on here yet.
One thing was for sure though... He didn't see Alana, Tracy, or Seiki get jealous. Maybe they did, but what they thought may have disappeared when Yita was thrown out. What a huge missed opportunity.
"Anyway..."
Lars Lion spread her power across the HQ that reformed the barrier Helios had destroyed during the brawl against Dante. This was to make sure no other intruder got in there. "We will do our best to make sure there are no further interruptions, Miss," Lars Lion promised. "Please begin your presentation."
"I'll get out of your way. I've been in it long enough as it is." Vince proceeded to go where Noland was, right behind the rest of the Resistors. He nudged Noland when he got there as he was intrigued by what happened to him. "So...who was she? How did you two meet? Do you like her? How is she at brawling? Tell me everything," he whispered.

Maria finally had freedom to speak after all this mess that had to happen right at the started. She did not like getting interrupted when it was about time to do the briefing. She coughed a few times and got to the microphone, so everyone could hear her on speakers.
"Knights, I requested your presence because we have another dangerous nemesis before us." Sh began as formally as possible, so they would get her seriously after that little fun she had with Yita. "As you know we have been on lookout for Hurranians since humanity came in contact with them. We had lots of suspicions about their intentions. It appears that those suspicions were proven right." Maria was going slowly step by step so everyone would understand what she was on about. It was crucial that everyone there understood what was going on.
"A new source of information gave us an excellent insight on what Hurranians are planning and what they are capable of. You have heard about Spartans fighting Resistors; it was all for purpose of analyzing their battle data in order to make powerful mechanical Bakugans. More to that, they apparently work like a big network; being able to transfer information to one another just by seeing something and for that reason it is dangerous if only ONE Hurranian finds out about our briefings." Maria was worried about lives of those who would have to engage in battle against this monstrous race. She saw many Knights fall to terrorists, but terrorists cannot assimilate as Hurranians can and that is what makes it scary.
"They have a powerful weapon in their arsenal and it is only a matter of time before they decide they do not need us and that it is time to destroy us. Considering they are successfully assimilating with us their plan is going well, but our source inform us that there is one weapon that could let us end this. " Maria concluded giving people some time to think about what she just said.
It was crucial for them to understand every bit. There were still some things she wanted to say, but she proceeded to answer a few quick questions. People started discussing the matter among themselves. "One way or another we have to prepare for battle. Whether plan succeeds or not we will have to pour our sweat and blood into this."

"Wh-what?" Hearing that the Spartans coerced them all into fighting for that purpose wasn't as sickening as knowing that Roxy was one of them. That was a shame too. He had just finished mustering up the courage to forgive himself so he could amend their relationship, and now she was a possible antagonist. It was a tragic shame indeed.
"Is she really capable of something like that?" Markus wondered. He quickly brushed over that detail and was focused on what Maria specifically said about the mechanical Bakugan. There was something about them that he didn't quite understand.
"Excuse me, but does anyone have any visual representations of these mechanical Bakugan? How do they perform in battle?" Gargulion asked, beating Markus to the punch on what he was about to ask along with an important question.
"I understood what you were saying about the Hurranians, but what exactly does Vestal having these Bakugan mean for us? You shifted right back to the Hurranian problem after you revealed that bit of information. Is there some sort of link that we should be knowing about?"
