Alice struggle from the darkness tendrils. "URf. I hate these things already. I gt to get out, but how?" The anklet's roses glow. The they move and grow. Shielding Alice from Clate's attack. "What." Then the rose petals spin slicing away at the tendrils then retract.
"Special Ability Activate!" He slides in ability and it glows haos darkus and ventus. "Combining of Light, Darkness, and Wind!" Reginas's attack was about to connect when it stops. Winds of haos, darkus, and ventus storming about the bakugan. Lifting him off the ground.
"You underestimate us." Titania goes.
"Alice may be a weaker brawler, but she is stubborn." Oberon starts.
"A brawl is a brawl. Go now.!" Alice commands. Oberon and Titania blast Reginas hard as he continues to float up. "Ability Activate! Gate Set!" Alice pulls out a gate card then set it on the field. "This card allows a second gate card to be set. Gate Card Open! Fairy Circle!" A floral ring appears around Reginas. Its light binding him. He can feel a semi displacement effect on him.
Alice then runs to Clate. Hoping onto Reginas when he gets high enough. When she reaches him she just kicks him in the chest with the leg that has the anklet. When she does a wind cone forms. "No attacking beautiful girls like me okay."
Reginas then falls face first. Oberon and Titania easily avoiding it.

Clate brought his arms up quickly, creating a shield of darkness to block Alice's kick. However, with her imbued with light, it was difficult. His energy levels dropped critically low, and he fell to his knee. He looked up at Alice. "I will admit, you've accelerated faster than even Atom did! If you had more energy in that, it would've felt like when he purified me back in the beginning." He stood back up, and raised his arm. "Okay Reginas, we're done here! I have confidence in Alice now, especially with how powerful our opposition is." Reginas groaned.
"You know, you could've called that BEFORE I got attacked like that." He glowed and returned to Clate's hand. Clate put him on his shoulder, then turned to Alice again.
"I'd shake your hand on a good brawl, but with your current light readings I'm worried about you dissolving me. With my energy this low, you'd stand a good chance of that." He took a step back. "Let's see if you can just summon it at will or if it's just there, shall we?"

Alice calls back her bakugan having being the winner in the end. If not stubbornly won. Her anklet does not disappear. At first. It glows and then turns to wind, blowing about.
"I shall not be restricted!" A loud powerful voices cries out. But when the wind gathers it forms a small humanoid creature with bug like wings, with a circuit board pattern. "Fear my power abyssal creature. Your darkness shall hold no match to me. HA HA HA!" He is green and rather adorable. Especially after the loud booming voice turns into a tiny squeaky voices. The little guy is holding himself up proudly.
"So. . . . " Alice has the look of aw in her eyes. "CIUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE!" She hugs the little guy and goes on and on about his adorableness.
"UNHAND ME!"
"No. You are too precious." At this point it is a lost cost to save the little guy from Alice's hug. Nobody would want to be hug by such a force.

Having waited patiently for the brawl to end Ivan stands up.
"Alrighty its my turn now right!?" Alice and Clate would proqbly give him a "really, not now" type of look.
"Haven't you made a fool of yourself enough for one day?" Ivan pouts. He realized there was likely no chance of him getting a brawl out of either one.
"Take me home!"

Clate took another step back as the stone pillars fell. "Is that a bug or a feature?" He looked at the strange creature. "I'll be right back." He headed for the main room of The Lab and booted up the computer. "Let's see what I can find about the glitches in these Gauntlets." He did a quick search, and came across something interesting. "Okay, so, the Gauntlets have only three known glitches and failure points. The first is being unable to regulate Light Energy because of too much ambient light. It'll fry them. Unfixed. The second is an overload of darkness energy, resulting in the same reaction. Finally, there is also a glitch in which The utilizer of the Gauntlet cannot control the weapon and it becomes unresponsive. Rebooting the Gauntlet fixes it. Nothing about strange creatures coming out of them." Clate took another look at the strange being that Alice was hugging. "Something about it just reminds me of an Artificial Lifeform." He walked back over. "Okay little guy, you called me an Abyssal creature. I'm certain you were referencing me being a Negative Shifter, right? You came from the Gauntlet, so is it safe to assume you know Atom? If so, do you know anything about someone named Clate?" Clate held his head for a second. "Jeez, haven't gotten a message like that in a while. Apparently your writer wants my writer to make me say Hi to you. So, hi! With that out of the way, would you mind answering my three questions?"

"I'm not what you call an AI!" The little guy yells at Atom. "My name is NamuNatmor." He holds the name proudly.
"NamNat." Goes Alice. "That shall be your nickname."
"What?" NamNat says in disbelief.
"Lets get Ivan back to his house." Alice goes completely changing the subject.
Meanwhile Grimm reaches the top of the tower. Taking out a couple guards on the way and remaining for the most part undiscovered. But he knows that a GRIMM search is active. Regular check ups can be a hindrance.
"Screw it." He thinks. "I will get it fixed now." Grimm gets the repairs for his back support going.

"If you're not an AI, then what the heck are you?" Asked Clate. He shook his head. "I think you're right, Alice. We need to head out of the Pocket Dimension." He looked at Ivan. "Make sure to grab your old Gauntlet before we head out. I'm going to go grab all of the messages Atom has hidden here." Clate walked back into the main room of The Lab and went back to the computer. "Okay little guy, give me all of Atom's messages." He began typing and soon had the entire list of twenty messages in their folder. "Twenty? Are you kidding me?! Just how little sleep has Atom gotten over the past few weeks?" Clate put his hand on the wall, which beeped. "What?" He withdrew his hand, and a small slot opened up. Clate looked inside to see a flash drive with a post-it note stuck on. "Thought you might want this." He read. He looked around. "Okay, now he's freaking me out!" He grabbed the flash drive, put it into the computer and downloaded all twenty messages. He ejected it, and turned it off. "I hope that these are useful. At about five minutes each, it'll take an hour to go through them all and figure out everything we can about everything he's done." He looked at the remaining two slots in the wall that held Gauntlets. Blaze's and Grimm's. He walked over to them. "I know what I've told him about our potential adversaries, but I didn't think it would elicit this kind of response." He turned around, and the floor beeped under him. He looked at it. "Are you kidding me?! He still has more secret compartments?!" Clate took a step back as the section of floor he stepped on began to rumble and rise. He read the tag on the top. "Chaos Suit?" He asked. The floor continued to rise, revealing a kind of containment chamber. A light turned on inside it, revealing a half-completed suit. Clate looked at it in curiosity. "This must be the thing Atom was working on for me." He looked at the tag again to see another word. "Redacted?" He asked. "Why?" He tapped the wall of the containment chamber, and it began to sink. "You are stranger than I thought you were, Atom." The floor next to the chamber began to rise, revealing another chamber. "Another one? Okay, at this point nothing surprises me anymore." The second chamber hit max height as the first went flush with the floor. A light flicked on inside it, revealing a completed suit. Clate read the tag. "Negative Suit?" He looked at the chamber again to see a taped note. He grabbed it.
"Figured you would find this, Clate." Clate was dumbfounded. "This is the fifteenth design of a specialized suit for you. You probably found the fourteenth right next to it. Anyways, this suit will regulate your energy levels to ensure that you have constant energy so that you don't have to disappear unless you either A, want to, or B, have to. Trust me when I say it wasn't easy to create a fabric that merges with you when you vanish. Also, it suffers the same glitches as the Gauntlets, so assume a few things will go wrong every now and again. For example, I couldn't quite get it to amplify your powers so you could generate constructs of darkness to help you with your battles. Instead, it kinda reduces your powers to an extent, making it more difficult for you to control darkness. I'm working on that with the sixteenth model. Anyways, hopefully it helps!" Clate looked at the suit.
"You have got to be kidding me." The chamber opened up, and the suit was stretched outwards to Clate on something akin to a hanger. He grabbed it. "Fifteen models? I think you had help from Atomspliter, didn't you Atom?" He shook his head. "Well, I suppose there are worse things than help from the writer." The chamber vanished, sinking back into the floor to remain hidden once again. Clate shook his head. "Even after all this time with him, he still manages to surprise me." He walked over to the panel. "Everybody ready to head out?" He asked.

With a deep breathe of annoyance Ivan responded.
"LETS GO!" Kauis popped back open. He threw himself against Ivans forehead. Ivan grasped his forehead. It wasn't the blow hurt, but he just really didn't like that.
"Don't be such a sour puss." Ivan rolled his eyes and snatched the bakugan out of the air.
"Oh you be quite." He was for once in a terrible mood. He grabbed his old gauntlet as instructed by Clate. As he did he mumbled to himself in a higher tone.

Clate looked back at Alice and NamNat and saw that they were in the room as well. "Okay, let's get going then." He activated the panel, and selected the option to go back to the Pocket Dimension at Ivan's house. He shielded his eyes, hoped his allies did as well. The note that was on the second containment chamber Clate examined blew around as they vanished, landing with the back up. It had a warning. 'Still highly experimental. Use caution when wearing. Unknown side effects.' Nobody saw it. Clate then uncovered his eyes as the transport finished. He pressed a few more buttons, returning the room back to regular space. "And we're back." He looked out the window and saw that it was becoming night. "There's some kind of time warping going on with the pocket dimensions. I'll have to look into it later." He felt his own energy reserves, and sighed. He looked at Alice and Ivan. "Say, uh, you guys wouldn't happen to have any ways of generating chaos or negative energy, would you? I'm almost out. That attack by Alice drained me."

"You can always use Oberon's shadows. He has been trying to feed them to you this whole time you dummy." Alice goes holding onto NamNat like he is some kind of doll. The defeated look on his face.
"NamNat. Such an embarrassing name." The little guy complains.
"I think Grimm will like you. He when I last saw him he said actual gods are no fun. To easy to make fun of and insult. Super sensitive too. He did nothing but complain about them."
*Flashback*
Grimm, and Alice are sitting at a coffee shop. Grimm not wearing a mask and informal outfit. He is talking his head off about how the gods were boring and half hearted. More concerned over a bigger picture than what they are saying, or doing. Alice is just sitting there enjoying her time with him.
"Truly that can be that bad in the end though. I think if you interact with Dharak more you would come to enjoy each others presence." Alice says.
"Ha! As if. I complained about them being to sensitive and when he gets insulted all he wanted to do is erase me from existence. He doesn't deserve my respect. Genesis is boring, and Wavern needs to relax. But she wasn't our dimensions Wavern." Grimm babbles on.
"Oh not our Wavern. That is very interesting. I would like to meet our worlds Wavern. I bet she is very pretty. Kind, and gentile." Alice replies. "As a fellow shifter I believe we will meet her one day. Fate would be funny like that." She laughs a little.
"Bleh. I bet she wouldn't tolerate me at all. I'm the guy who can piss off a god. I bring forth discord. I'm better suited to meet Naga." Grimm then drinks some coffee. "Well now that our little meet up is done. It is back to the chase. Be careful Alice. If the Genesis had us fight another world. Then be ready to fight a war." Grimm then vanishes like he was never there.
"Yes brother. Just be safe." With worry in her voice. "Well time to got meet Atom. I plan on making a perfectly delicious meal."
*Flashback End*
"Hey Ivan. We should start a bonfire. Hang out as friends. Learn a bit more about each other." Alice smiles. It isn't as though she isn't happy, but for even just a little. She really just wants to relax and have a little fun.

A sparkle bedazzled Ivans eyes.
"What a great idea!" He exclaimed. His spirit was instantly lifted. He looked around.
"I'm an expert at setting up bonfires, so leave that part to me." Ivan jumps into a nearby tree. He gathered anything he could find that could be burned; branches, sticks, twigs, and even some household burnables. It didn't him any time. He dressed the pile of branches with a bottle of Zippo's Lighter Fluid. Alice seemed to detest the idea of squirting the entire bottle.
"Now to top it off!" Ivan reared back his head, puffed out his cheeks, and exhaled spewing out a large torrent of flames. To prevent a wildfire he condensed the flames a bit to go towards the burn pile.
FWOOSH!
As the flames lit up the night the sounds of sticks burning crackled in everyones ears. Ivan had only two chairs so he was left sitting on the ground. He didn't mind it though. He sat criss-cross applesauce closer than anyone else dare to the fire. Due to him tapping into his power fire never really bothers Ivan anymore. He had the most control over it than any other of the elements he could control. Ivan pulled from behind a bag containing: marshmallows, a variety of chocolates, and crackers (graham).
"S'mores anyone?" He offered.

Clate blinked. "Should I be more surprised by the fact that you're an expert or that you can get one set up in less than a minute?" He shook his head. "I really shouldn't be trying to think that one through." He looked at Ivan, then at Reginas. "Care to help him out?"
"Of course!" Replied Reginas. The ground next to Ivan rumbled, and three stone skewers came out. Then, the ground near the fire rumbled, and three slots came up to hold the skewers. "Stone is much more sanitary than wood, safer, and easier to get!"
"Thanks bud." Clate turned to Alice. "Now, as for your Shadow Energy, I can't use that. And before you start complaining, allow me to explain. What's considered Bad Energy is subdivided into three different forms. Negative, Chaos and Dark. Negative comes from Negative Emotions, Chaos comes from Chaotic Actions, and Dark comes from using Darkness. Now, using Negative and Chaos, I can move darkness, generating Dark Energy. However, I can't turn that Dark Energy into either Negative or Chaos. And, since Shadow Energy is a subdivision of Dark Energy, I can't use it as an energy source. Think of it like toast. You can make Bread into Toast, but you can't make Toast into bread. You can make Negative and Chaos into Dark, but you can't make Dark into Negative and Chaos. And don't say anything about Atom being able to do that, his Genes create Negative and Chaos energy when he uses the abilities from my Negative Gene as a byproduct, no because of Dark Energy. Now, if you need me to explain that again, please do ask. It's still slightly confusing to me, too." He turned back to Ivan. "How many S'mores are we each allowed to have?"

"Show off." Ivan mumbled under his breathe. He grabbed a nearby branch and stuck a marshmallow on it, he proceeded to roast it while his allies probably watched with disgust. He took a bite, smacking merrily on the sticky substance he had created. He didn't even bother to blow out the flame.
"What?" Ivan asked smiling. Before their was a response, "Oh gosh, its just a little dirt sheesh!"
"Your sick!" All of Ivan's Bound Defenders had popped open beside their owner. "Forgive me for his absurd behavior, I do not expect anybody to have to use STICKS to roast their S'mores!" Gaia, the Earthbound Defender apologized.
Ivan continued smacking on more marshmallows. He didn't even bother to make a S'more. "Come on guys dig in!" "Theres enough for us to have as many as you like!"

"Ignoring the way Ivan eats his s'mores" Alice begins.
"I feel sorry for the s'mores." Oberon goes. Everyone else in Alice's party nods to that fact.
"Let's tell stories. Of our past or completely made up. You can learn a lot of somebody by listening to a story." Alice says. "Who would like to go first. Oh and later Ivan. We are going to get you some proper table manners going when you eat. In ALL situations got it." Alice does not hold back her concern over Ivan's table manners. Even if it is a campfire.

Post by Atom on Nov 9, 2018 12:09:47 GMT -5
"I'm agreeing with Alice on this one, Ivan. Your table manners are, to put it bluntly, non-existent. Speaking while chewing is the biggest one." Clate turned to Alice. "I have very few stories. I have origin stories of Destruction, Creation, Shifters and Negative Shifters, as well as a few stories about our attempts to defend Realities, but that's about it. I doubt it'd be very interesting to many of you."
"Ah, why not tell them?" Asked Reginas. "The could use the info, after all. Of our group, these two have had the least interaction with Destruction, especially Alice." Clate shook his head.
"I'm more worried about telling them too much and having them give up because of the odds against us. Destruction is no joke. A single touch from him is capable of destroying basically anybody, his control over darkness also overpowers almost any form of light, he's ruthless and you never know what he's planning. I attempted a couple times, and each and every time he planned on what I planned based on what I thought he was planning. It kinda gets absurd sometimes, but I think it has something to do with the fact that he escaped the story and got the ability to utilize our writer to make his moves. To be honest, I'm not sure. Anyways, if you guys want, I could go into the stories I mentioned earlier. Just be warned that you'll have to steel yourselves for them."
