Ivan looked around, the boy was perplexed as to what had just happened.
"That was strange, so Clate what exactly just happened?" Ivan didn't sound as down about losing the brawl as before, it was still clear though it was affecting him.
It was likely Clate would proceed to explain it to a degree where Ivan could understand. Kauis popped open and floated next to Clate.
"I suggest you dumb it down just a tad bit more." The remark of his bakugan set Ivan off into a fit of rage. He was actually upset for once, but Kauis didn't take him serious at all. He simple chuckled and returned to his owners storage unit.
"Oh please Kauis, not right now, besides aren't you still recovering!" Ivan's shouts seemed to upset Alice. She would probably glare at him signaling him to refrain from being well himself at the moment.

"So dizzy." Alice slumps to the floor. "Feel so sick." Poor Alice looks motion sick. "Hoooooooooow?" She does not look well. From her exhaustion, brawling Ivan, and now a subspace warp. Everything is hitting her like trains.
"Oh this isn't Good. Alice go get some rest. We Adults shall do the talking." Oberon brawls himself. He is short enough to be around average human male hieght. He picks her and puts her on the couch. Then rips Ivan's blanket of his bed and lays it on her. She goes to sleep. Immediately. "I will fill her in when she wakes. Continue."

"Ivan, I wish I knew what was happening!" Said Clate. The light seemed to dim a bit, allowing Clate to lower his hands and look around. "Well, we're not in your house any more." In front of everybody, there was a fairly small room. A few strange devices hung from the wall, but that was nothing compared to the other wall. On it was a large screen and several recesses in the wall. Within each recess was something that looked like a Gauntlet. "Where are we?"
Atom not detected. Droned a computerized voice. Activating message 01. The screen turned on.
"Hey guys!" I appeared on the screen. "I have no idea who's there, but I'm going to assume Clate is there, simply because he's the only one who knows how to work the Panel. I'm also going to assume that there's more than just Clate. Anyways, you're probably wondering what this place is, right? Well, I've dubbed this place the lab. I'd show it on screen, but you can see it for yourself. Several long nights went into making this place and making the things you guys can see in the walls. I'll get to those in a moment. In addition to that, I also managed to copy all of my computer's data over to this place, just in case something happened. After that attack by Cusillu, I can't be too cautious. Alice, if you're there, yes, I did copy over my algorithm that allows me to track Grimm. But that's not important. What is important are the devices you guys see before you." The screen changed to show one of the Gauntlets in the recesses.
"Drawing on an idea in another Reality, combining it with Bakugan Tech and infusing it with Light Energy, I was able to fashion these. I know that only me and Clate are capable of directly fighting against Destruction and his Generals, so I needed to make these things for everybody else. For Ivan, yours is in the first slot on my right. Blaze, yours is next to his to my left. Then, Alice. Finally, I also made one for Grimm. With Cusillu's brawler targeting him, I figured it would probably be a good idea to give him a secondary power source for the eventuality of Destruction claiming his Chaos Seed." Each slot lit up, revealing that the gauntlets all had slightly different designs. "Naturally, since each Gauntlet was designed for a specific person, each one is slightly different. I won't get into details about how that stuff works, but I will say that they're tailored to each of your brawling styles. Please, grab your own at the soonest possible chance. It's likely if you're seeing this that I'm out of commission until further notice." I returned to the screen, and smiled.
"And now, for how the Light Energy affected them. You guys remember how I can use my sword as an elemental weapon, right? And how I can use Energy Twist with it as well? Well, what if I told you guys that these Gauntlets have the ability to generate custom weaponry for each of you that is attuned to light? Well, they can. And each weapon will also be unique to you! However, due to limitations, I couldn't design those weapons for each of you individually. Instead, I programmed the Gauntlets to figure out your individual fighting styles and generate a weapon based on that. And, of course, in order to figure out your individual fighting styles, you guys are going to need to brawl against each other. And you have to give it your all! No holding back! On the wall to your left is a hidden door that leads to a battlefield. It's completely blank, but utilizes Solid Holograms to create a more interesting battle. It's not quite Bakugan Interspace, but it's the absolute closest I've been able to get to in this Reality. And, that's it." I vanished from the screen, then came back on.
"Oh yeah, two more things and a warning. One, Clate, I know how quickly you burn through your Chaos and Negative Energy, so I've been working on something to help you with that. Unfortunately, it's not quite done yet. Hopefully you can keep going for a while longer! Two, the Gauntlets can also be customized to be more like any other kind of brawling equipment. That should be explained in message 2. Or was it 3? Anyways, I'm certain you guys will figure it out! And, the warning. These things are still highly experimental, so expect a few bugs and glitches. I'll get them fixed as soon as possible." The screen turned off, for real this time, leaving the entire room silent. A computer came out of the wall on the right, next to the installed Panel. Clate managed to recover from the information drop. He blinked a few times.
"So, uh, that's a thing." He said. He turned to his allies. "Are you guys as confused as I am? OR are you good?"

Ivans eyes lit up with a passionate fire. He pointed his head towards the sky, hot crimson flames spewing out of his mouth, "OH YEAHHHHH!" Ivan raced for his gauntlet and smiled pleased.
"I thought my other gauntlet was cool, man this one puts that one to shame!" He was obviously feeling a LOT better. He discarded the other gauntlet and placed the other one on. He tapped random buttons until the gauntlet finally initiated.
"OOooooo ahhhhhhhh!" He faced the group. "Who wants a piece of me first?"

Alice can't help but feel annoyed. Being woken up from Ivan's yelling after just falling asleep.
"Ivan be quiet your yelling is giving me a headache." She complains. Oberon does quickly inform her about the situation. Then with a yawn. "Okay then. Clate brawl me. I already brawled Ivan. So he now owes me ice-cream, and lots of it." Completely disregarding his request to brawl be it rudely woke her up. Her stubbornness says Ivan needs to learn how to respect women in general.
Meanwhile Grimm wants to leave the hospital. But Grimm's brief interactions with Blaze tells him she is just as stubborn as his sister. Annoyingly persistent. "Must find something. If I don't get my support fixed. I can say good bye to speaking. A lot of my enemies will say that is an improvement. Damn it. I can't be thinking about that right now. I just need to get something repaired. Gain information and then get out. Gamma Gene activate."
Grimm's eyes turn to silver, and the right one takes a darkus symbol and the left one a subterra symbol. "Power of subterra guide my path. Power of Darkus show me that what actions the others will take next. With these attribute help me seek my goal." He grabs his bakugan, and sneaks out. He can move but not very well. Meaning he has to be careful.
After much sneaking around he finally finds the first thing he was after a way to fix his back support. He gathers what he needs and continues on. He eventually finds a computer. Lucky him he always has a spare flash drive. You never know when you need one. After copying enough data, because erasing it attracts attention he begins to sneak on out. But instead of going down. He heads to the roof.

Clate looked at Alice in surprise. "Okay, I'll let it all out now. I'm not against battling you, but I'm a little reluctant at this point. First of all, I'm still digesting how the heck Atom managed to make all of this in the short time we've had since Cusillu's attack. Next, Atom did say that these Gauntlets of his may still have glitches and bugs. We can't even be certain that they'll work. Finally, we don't know how to get into his hidden battlefield. I know he said there was a door, but we don't know how to make the door open."
Acknowledged. A part of the wall to the left jolted back, then slid away, revealing the hidden battlefield. Clate looked at it, dumbfound.
"He never ceases to amaze me." Clate looked back to Alice. "Still doesn't change my other two points." He sighed. "But I tell make you this. If you're certain about this, and willing to put up with any potential side effects of the Gauntlets, then I will brawl you. It's likely that'll help with the Gauntlets, at least a little, considering I'm a Negative Shifter." He turned to his partner. "Well Reginas, anything you want to say?"
"I'm ready if you two are." Responded Reginas. "It'll be interesting to battle royalty. You don't get to do that every day!" Clate turned to the door and walked towards it.
"Just make sure you actually use the Gauntlet, okay?" He asked. "I'd rather not brawl for nothing." He entered the hidden battlefield.
The nurse came back, and I looked at her. "So, good news and bad news." She said. She then noticed my predicament. "So, you tried to walk again, didn't you?"
"Can you help me up?" She came over and lifted me, allowing me to raise myself onto the bed.
"Now, as I was saying, I've got good news and bad news."
"Bad news first."
"Well, it seems that while your legs were slung back into place, your muscles got pinched and parts of them came off. That's why you can't even stand. Your muscles are beyond angry, and very inflamed."
"If that's the bad news, then what's the good news?"
"It'll heal within two or three weeks. Of course, by then, you'll have developed atrophy in your body which'll force you into physical rehab. It's better than never being able to walk again, right?" I groaned and flopped back.
"Great, even more wait time." I sighed, and felt something in my pocket. I fumbled to grab it, remembering something that could help me.
"What are you doing?" Asked the nurse. I pulled out my Ocarina. "What is that?"
"Something that can help me. I just have to hope I can play it." I got a grip on the Ocarina, and attempted to bring it to my mouth. I couldn't reach because of the casts and realized that unless I could reach I wouldn't be playing. "Just perfect." The nurse seemed to look at my Ocarina with interest.
"You know, my son plays a game with an item similar to that. What was it called again?" She hummed a bit in thought, and that song reminded me of another. "Now I remember! He was playing a game he called Majora's Mask. Is that some kind of promotional thing that was given out with it?" My jaw must've dropped. "What? Did you not know that?"
"You mean Legend of Zelda has been part of this Reality this entire time?!" I asked. "Gah! Why do I not know these things?! I was getting nostalgic for some of the old fashioned puzzles within those games!" I focused on the nurse again. "What was that song you hummed while you were thinking?" The nurse thought again, humming the same tune.
"It's a song that my son played all the time on his game. I think it was called, uh, the Song of Stealing? No, that's not it. Uh, what was it again? Song of, song of,"
"Healing?" I interjected.
"Yeah! That's it! You must play the game too, don't you?!"
"You could say something like that." I thought for a moment. "You want to try playing it on my Ocarina?" The nurse seemed slightly surprised.
"I suppose I could." She came over and picked it up. "It's sterile, right?"
"I think it is."
"Okay." She said. She put it to her mouth, and began to blow. An awful note came out of it, and she stopped playing. "Ow! That hurt my ears!"
"It's not easy to play. Try it again." She blew into it again, making a better note. "Come on, I know you can do it!" She blew again, making a pretty good note. She took it away from her mouth.
"Amazing!" She said. "I can't believe how nice it sounds!"
"Want to learn a song on it?"
"Absolutely!" She put it to her mouth again, and prepared to blow. I hummed the Song of Healing.
"Just recreate the notes." The nurse blew the first three notes correctly, then butchered the other three. "Once more." I hummed it again, and she blew out all six notes. Then, her eyes opened wide in shock as she played it again and added onto it the remaining parts of the song. My legs burned a bit, but it quickly went away. They shrank back down, no longer swollen as my muscles repaired themselves. I swung my legs to the side and stood up. My legs wobbled, but held strong. I looked at the nurse. "Thanks! I needed that!" She pulled the Ocarina away, and stared at it in shock.
"What the? How did that"
"Just happen?" I asked. "Simple answer. You remember how I said that I kinda played the game? Well, I have, but I've also acquired the actual Ocarina from that game. As such, it's possible for me to play a song from the game and have it work. And by teaching others, I suppose the same could be said of them." I reached out the grab the Ocarina back from her, and she willingly gave it back to me. I put it back in my pocket. "Any questions?"
"No, I think I just need to lie down for now." She said. "I've been working too hard." She exited the room. "I must be tired. That must've been a hallucination!" She continued mumbling to herself as I sat back down.
"My legs are healed, but my arms aren't healing anytime soon." I resolved to staying at the hospital for a while.

Alice grabs the gauntlet for her. She looks at it. "I feels weird, but I like the color. Pink gauntlets are almost never sold in stores." Is her only comment about it. She meets Clate i the battle field. "Gate Card Set!" The card is tossed and when it lands it glows green and expands. "Bakugan Brawl! Bakugan Stand! Rise Darkus/Ventus Oberon King of the Fey!" "Be careful Alice. You are drain enough as it is." Oberon teases. 'Oberon at 2500gs and waiting.' Goes the gauntlet on both Clate and Alice's arms. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIn8_Q27WFY Battle theme

"Ready Reginas?" Asked Clate.
"You know it!" Clate grabbed him.
"Let's hope I have enough energy for this! Bakugan, Brawl! Bakugan, Stand! Rise Subterra Reginas!" Reginas rose, towering over Oberon at twice or three times his size. "Believe me when I say that power level means nothing here. It's all about the Defense and Attack stats of our Bakugan. Unless your attack outranks our defense, you won't defeat us easily." Clate tapped a few buttons on his Bakumeter, and it changed into a Subterra Gauntlet to match the speed and efficiency of Alice's. "Let's brawl!" His Gauntlet glowed with a black light, infused with some chaos and negative energy.

"Golem like and big. Really big. Towering. Alice." Orberon kinda looks worried but it is so obvious that he doesn't care about that much. "Alice does the gauntlet have a stat screen?"
"Let me check." With a little fidgeting a stat screen reveals itself. Reginas has really high offense and defense stats. But horrendously low speed stat. Everything else is balanced. Then Oberon's is looked at. A high speed stat is expected. Not a great defense stat either. It in fact is rather bad really, but the absurdly high Offense is extreme. It is double Reginas. The intelligence stat is also very high. Any other stat is not really great, but it isn't fully lacking. "Oberon your offense is. Wow."
"I know right. So lets get a good offense going." The Satyr chuckles.
"Ability Activate! Forest Shadow!" Oberon moves the shadows around the arena. Then Oberon falls into them. Moving about in them remaining hidden. "This move not only protects Oberon from your attacks, but my next one will be way more powerful."

Ivan let out a loud sigh. Having his brawl request rejected kind of pissed hin off, but he figured he could learn something from watching the two brawl. To add onto it he didn't want to make Alice anymore angry than before.
"This stinks." He pouts. He conjured a small flare that hovers over his palm. He juggles it between each fingertip watching the battle.

"Without a fine tempering to the sharpest blade, it will break against the weakest material." Said Clate. He set an ability. "Ability, Activate! Earthquake!" Reginas raised his hand.
"This is why you don't try to cause them." He slammed his hand down, creating shockwaves hard enough to shake the entire battlefield. Transparent walls appeared around it, keeping the shockwaves in and adding to Oberon's problem. "Even if you're protected from the abilities themselves, you can still be affected by their effects on the battlefield!" The ripples kept on being sent from Reginas for as long as his hand was on the ground, and the ripples continued building up on each other, making the shaking worse. Two stone pillars raised out of the ground underneath both Clate and Alice, and were sectioned off from the ground, keeping them safe. Clate peered into the shadows, them not obscuring his vision any worse than covering his eyes from the sun. It seemed as if Oberon was having trouble keeping his balance on the quickly shaking battlefield, but it could've been a trick of the eye.
"Unlike the shop card of the same name, Reginas's Earthquake Ability causes opposing Abilities to reverse, in all regards. Because it's disallowed to be so in official brawls, it was toned down to just a negation and halving of the opponent's powers. In any case, now we're protected from your abilities and our next ability will be far more powerful." Explained Clate. "Just because you have a higher attack stat doesn't mean you're immune to changes of that stat."

"Hrmmmmmmmm? Ooh I have an idea Oberon." Alice goes.
"It looks good indeed Alice." Oberon goes.
"Hey no mind reading. Ability Activate! Wild Fairy!" With this ability Oberon just seems to vanish even from Clate's view. Then Reginas can feel a powerful kick to the back of his head. Knocking him over. "You may have good offensive power Reginas but you are right if you can't cope to the situation then things will get the better of you."
"Dancing Faeries." Oberon goes. The off balance look that Clate was thinking about. "It looks weird at first. Even Alice had to get used to it. But Sliding in and out of the Fey is a neat little trick to get a decent hit." Oberon dances some more.
"Consecutive Ability Activate! Oberon's Revenge!" Alice activates another ability. Oberon gathers all sorts of energies in his hand. Then fires it at Reginas's downed body. Not only just blasting him bust causing a sorts of nasty side effects. "This ability also makes it so you can't play your abilities either Atom."
"But wait their is more." Oberon adds.
"Double Consecutive Ability Activate! Hounds of Oberon, and Oberon's Dragon!" Ten shadow dire wolves are brought out. But a shadow dragon also is formed. But something is off about it. "Battle Gear Ability Activate! Faeries Fire!" The dragon builds up a blue purple flame and rains it down on Reginas. "I bet you are wondering how I was able to activate a battle gear ability without having a battle gear. Well it is simple. Oberon's Dragon creates itself as a support weapon. It can use any support weapon ability or cards that are in my backpack, or that have been played previously in the round."
"While at Faeries Fire is a nasty ability that lets me take all of you power for what it is worth, and any power you gain. I gain instead." The King of Faeries laughs. "Sick em boys." The wolves attack now too.

Clate watched the wolves draw close to Reginas, and pulled out a card that seemed to be made of sand. "First time using these. Hopefully they're attuned to you correctly, bud." He inserted it. "Ability Activate! Magnitude 7!" The ground began rumbling powerfully, sending almost everybody upon it to their knees. However, Reginas rose, more powerful than ever. "Time for you to get schooled! Also, I'm not Atom!" Reginas clapped his hands, and a giant crevice appeared, running down the middle of the field. "Not only does this ability take an effect you put on us and put it on you, it also gives Reginas Advantage! Now, instead of us being prevented from playing Normals, you are! And any power you have above us will be counted against you!" Reginas clapped again, sending a small portion of the Earthquake's strength at the wolves, knocking them back to Oberon.
"Additionally, the Earthquake Abilities allow me to absorb any Earthquake that strikes, and use it to my advantage! What you just saw was a small fraction of the 199 kilotons of TNT equivalent energy I have at my disposal! I can crack the very ground you walk on with a tap of the finger now!" To emphasize his point, he bent down at tapped the ground next to him. It sheared apart, creating a smaller hole. "Any questions? No? Good!" He slammed the ground with both hands, sending a massive shockwave through the battlefield. A large portion raised up in a wave heading straight for Oberon.

"Ability Activate! Interference of the Fairy Queen!" The Titania stands on the field and Reginas ability gets stopped right in its tracks. Reginas loses advantage and Titania and Oberon gain it, and anything else that was lost. "I wont go out without a fight. Ability Activate!" The card glows but Alice stumble a bit. She hasn't recovered any of her energy. "Fey's Blessing!" Titania's and Oberon's power rise even higher.
"Alice there is no need to exert yourself." Titania goes on like a mother reminder her child to not run off.
"We are almost done Alice. We will end this for you." Oberon goes.
"Right." She says with a smile before falling her face from exhaustion.
"ALICE!" Titania and Oberon begin to freak out, but the gauntlet grows brighter.
"What is your one wish?"
"What?" Alice whispers out.
"Your wish. What do you wish for?"
"To help. Everybody I care about, and the world as I know it. I wish to be helpful." she barely speaks out.
"Then stand."
A huge burst of wind flies about the arena. Alice stands up. The arena growing plant life like crazy. Her gauntlet glows. A small spark flies of and touches her right ankle. A beautiful green jeweled anklet forms with five silver roses.
With renewed vigor. "Ability Activate! Hound Switcher. But instead of switching out Oberon. I switch out the shadow dragon." The dragon shadow fades nothing taking its place. "Fusion Ability Activate! Gift of the Faeries! You know what that means. Finish this fight!"
"Right." Oberon and Titania say at once. Preparing their energy attacks. Unaffected by the earthquakes caused by Reginas still.
"Whatever the outcome may be. As your personal weapon. I give you my blessings. Destruction will not take hold of you. A god has gifted you his protection. And in times others will too. Pure spirits must be protected as fast as possible." Alice's Anklet glows a little before losing its glow.

"Interesting." Said Clate. "Let's see what you can do with that! If Atom's right, it should allow you to fight darkness itself. Let's see if you can!" His hands glowed black as darkness began to shift about. "Titania, Oberon, give me a moment with Alice, please. As a Negative Shifter, I can control darkness. I'm going to see if she can fight it off." Dark tendrils extended from nowhere, binding Alice's hands and feet together and preventing her from moving. "But don't worry, Reginas will keep you two entertained while I test her powers of light. Double Ability Activate! Magnitude 10 plus Core Rotation!" The ground began rumbling, attempting to knock all opposing Bakugan off their feet again.
"Now we're talking!" Reginas yelled. "1.5 Billion Tons of TNT Equivalent Energy!" The ground below him fluctuated before exploding and leaving a large mallet, larger than what he usually used. He bent down to grab it, and hefted it like it was a feather. "And now for Core Rotation!" If Alice were to look at her Gauntlet, she would see that Reginas's Speed Stat just went through the roof, exceeding what most would consider possible. His attack and defense stats also soared. Reginas began spinning in place, gradually getting faster and faster until he was a blur. Then, he began moving towards his opposition. Every shadow wolf he bumped into got sent flying the the direction they were hit, and Reginas was quickly boring down on Titania and Oberon.
"Reginas's Earthquake Abilities bolster him to high levels." Explained Clate. "However, they can only be used at full power outside of official events due to card limitations. In this battle, Magnitude 10 reduces all opponents to 0 Gs while removing any special buffs you have! Then, of course, the Earthquake Energy from such a high intensity Earthquake also makes Reginas's Offence and Defense even more absurd." His hands glowed black again, and a large clump of darkness began to descend on Alice. "This darkness won't hurt you, but it will simulate what it would feel like if Destruction fired an attack at you. Let's see how you handle it!" The darkness fell onto Alice.
