"That annoying bitch redirected Dante's attack towards the Drazardon and Fed Bakugan," Daniel reported. "Consider yourselves lucky she doesn't know where we are except for Alex. She may point it at us next time."
"Leon saw a yellow light go through them. It's Trinity," Petra sighed.
"I'm trying to get control of her, but she's moving around too much. I think even 'ol Redhead is having trouble keeping her still," Daniel noted.
Alex was obviously unhappy hearing this, but he didn't really regret doing it. It was ideal in getting rid of Machine Slaughter before it did too much damage. It obviously would've done a lot to Dragonus as well. He'll just have to try something different this time...if there is a next time.
"Activating Terror Pit!" Calvin activated. In almost an instant, the ground all over the city turned into a whirlpool of darkness. Every being and building in site began to sink in it. There were shadowy arms that stuck out of the darkness that grabbed onto everyone and everything. In doing so, their stamina and durability began to weaken, making it easier for them to be pulled into oblivion.

From the same location outside of the city, Andrew reacted quickly to Calvin's attack. Not wanting either Knight or Angel to waste anything trying to get out of this Terror Pit ability, he began tapping a few buttons on his BrawlX.
"Nullify module, activate!" he declared. This was a module installed into the S.H.R.E.D.D.E.R. units. At its most basic level, it was a widespread Ability Breaker implemented into them, which allows them to emit energy bursts that nullify abilities. The units did so, sparing everyone and everything from having to suffer through this ability.
"Ability activate! Army of Death!" Drake responded. A rift that resembled a Pack rift opened up in the sky. Out of it came a multitude of ghouls that, if contact was made, would immediately deplete the power level of the victim. This was good, but there was also a suction at the top that threatened to suck in all of the S.H.R.E.D.D.E.R. units.
"This isn't good..." Andrew remarked on the current predicament. The S.H.R.E.D.D.E.R. were sucked in at moderate speed due to their medium size. During that time, they accurately shot as many of the ghouls as they could. More were summoned anyway, but this did help everyone not get overwhelmed quickly.
"Okay... Change of plans. Desiree, get your clone ready to go, and clone Hades for me, please," Andrew requested.
"Yeah," Desiree complied. She focused her eyes on Hades to begin the cloning process. Her eyes started glowing in a Haos-color.
"Clarence, I'm guessing you're still there. Get Jimmy out of there now!"

The Drazardon army started running all over the place now that Hades wasn't watching them and there were no apparent resistances in sight. They went in the direction Calvin's attack from earlier went. They figured it went that way for a reason. "That attack from earlier was going towards Jimmy's building... So it turns out that he went to the most obvious place he'd be found despite the fact that he's going to be arrested..." Drake figured. "What an idiot… I should’ve expected he’d do that. He’s in this situation now after all..."The real Drazardon and about five dozen of his army flew into the air with Drake in tow. They jetted towards Jimmy’s building in a hurry. In the meantime: ”Double ability activate! Darkness Lazer plus Fusion Ability, Lazer Slash!” Drazardon and his army arleady ahd their wings spread. That’s good, because this ability allows them to fire an onslaught of destructive laser beams from them. Not only were they highly destructive due to Drazardon’s massive power level, but they could also go through objects thanks to the fusion ability. The Drazrdon army also had Army of Death threatening the Knights and Angels to cover their approach. These ghouls will probably figure out where Sydney, Daniel, and Petra are hiding if they get too close. Trinity will notice this and immediately attack them, especially Petra and Sydney. Trinity REALLY dislikes the Angels due to Victoria's repeated attempts to get her. This was very good for Calvin and Drake...if Petra didn’t decide to attack them on the spot. ”Combat style change! Hero of North and South! Plus, Harmony, Cry of Annihilation, and Chi Break: Agony!” Petra shouted. From a hidden location, Leon manipulated his chi in order to match that of Dante’s. By doing this, Leon copied Dante’s status changes, giving him the Enhancement: Aquos buff. He then directed all of Drazardon’s attacks towards himself and released a loud shout that caused most of them to disappear. Luckily for Drake, the way that certain blasts arced prevented them from being nullified, so he did get what he wanted by razing through a couple of buildings. For that, he was rewarded with Leon punching the air to send a vibration towards one of the Drazardon. It was struck in the chest. Its chi was manipulated into focusing on its chest to magnify the intensity of the pain. This was done five times due to Enhancement: Aquos. As a finisher, the impact of this attack spread through most of Drazardon’s army, inflicting them with the same punishment as the initial victim. One by one, the Drazardon came tumbling down on the city. ”Nice, Petra! Now get out of there before Trinity comes over there!” Sydney urged. "Miracle Shining Force!" Alex declared. One of his favorite abilities got a big upgrade. The ability lasts for around 30 seconds. In that 30 seconds, he can utilize any of the ability's various moves. For instance, he'll use 'Burst'. A column of holy light burst forth from underneath Dante. It spun like a twister. Dante rose into the air from within it with his lance pointed upwards. A ball of light grew at the tip of the lance, charged, and then dispersed when Dante was high in the sky. Beams of light radiated from the very top of this light column. They shined on the rift and the ghouls that exited. They faded away as if they were erased from existence.
"Dammit!" Drake cursed. All of his plans were getting ruined at every turn.
"Stay put... I'll get you where you need to be," Calvin confidently declared.
Now Dante will use ‘Spread’. Using his lance, he pointed light around Calvin and Dragonus’ location as if it was a laser pointer. In about a second, the hero-turned-villain was smothered in orbs of light that continuously exploded into smaller particles.

Dante’s move was quite damaging. DPS is one of Calvin’s weaknesses. The Knight did his homework watching Allen battle Calvin, and then using what he learned to his advantage here. There was one problem though: Dragonus can escape from anything provided he has not been seriously injured yet. How? A special or fusion ability of course.
“Activating a forbidden fusion ability! Phantom Return!” Calvin exclaimed with pride. Adding the ‘forbidden’ part was unnecessary, but everyone should know he wasn’t playing any games.
Dragonus got himself out and was replaced with a terror the multiverse thought was gone forever: Fear Mialyn, a semi-skeletal Dragonoid. Mialyn took Dante’s attack uncontested on purpose. He was obliterated as anyone would expect. When this happened, Mialyn activated his programmed ability: Phantom Resurrection. Mialyn brought himself back to life in Dragonus’ body. Now, unlike the other fusion abilities where the guests would leave the field after this was done, Mialyn stayed. He had quadrupled Dragonus’ base stats and added it to his own. He mixed his Olympian shielding with Dragonus’ Achron shielding. If that wasn’t powerful enough, Calvin’s hand and deck also quadrupled in size. He had more power and options than he had in his battle with Allen.
”I am reborn!!!” Mialyn roared as if it was the actual Mialyn who was destroyed by an alternate Calvin.
”Yes, you are, aren’t you? How exciting,” Betadron spoke through Calvin. ”Sadly, you’ve already had your turn to take things over and whatnot. This is MY time.” Betadron forced Mialyn to take in dangerous amounts of his energy. The sky darkened, and the air stopped blowing. It appeared that the Earth itself was fearful of what Betadron was about to do to it.
”BLACK BURN!” Betadron shouted with an excruciatingly loud roar. Dark energy swirled from Mialyn’s head down to his feet. Then, after a chilling one second of silence, black energy burst from Mialyn. It traveled throughout New York like a flood from the sky, ground, and eventually water when it got outside of the city limits.

Betadron’s attack was very problematic to all combatants in the area. Trinity and Asuka were especially vulnerable, because they were not fighting with Bakugan or Achron beings. They were fighting as themselves. Both ladies were in Central Park duking it out as Betadron made his mark on the city. Trinity opted to teleport out of there to an unknown location. Surprisingly, Asuka chose to do the same. It may have been because she wasn’t focused on Betadron at the moment and didn’t know what he did. Maybe she was still more concerned with Trinity. No one knew what she was thinking or how she would respond to Mialyn’s arrival. Just what anyone would expect from the famed Admiral of Balance.
Speaking of balance, what about the imbalance Betadron created? Particularly, for the ones who are hit by this attack, what would happen to them?

Noland and Drago took the opposite approach to Trinity and Asuka by remaining where he was. After New York City got nuked by Black Burn, Noland and Drago stood in the streets protected by the latter’s power output. Even though they avoided serious damage by doing this, they were affected. Specifically, their Hex Code turned on and off twice before Noland and Drago were able to regain control of themselves.
“...That shouldn’t have happened...” Noland remarked on the effect the attack had on them.
”We should be protected from attacks like that after reaching Duality...” Drago believed.
“Maybe for guys like Betadron, it just gives us better resistance to being turned… Not complete immunity,” Noland proposed. “This foul energy is lingering, so it’ll only get worse from here on out. I’m not entirely sure how this affects Chaos Takeover users, and there’s two of them here...”
”This is starting to become dangerous...” Drago realized as if the situation wasn’t already dangerous before. Noland’s BrawlX got blown up with calls and messages from people. He only answered Nero since he was the only caller actually on scene.
“Yep?” Noland plainly answered.

”Good. You’re still alive… As I expected, of course, but… well, you know. Anyway, Clarence made it out with Jimmy. I can’t really discuss where he is for obvious reasons, but just thought you should know that,” Andrew reported. ”The other thing though… I know what this attack is doing… The darkness inside of me can feel it… It’s like it’s trying to resonate with it… And if that’s the case, I bet you already know that from how you might be feeling...”
Andrew said this as he surveyed the ruins of New York City. The 9/11 memorial, Wall Street, the FBI’s field office...all gone… But the perpetrators remain. The only sensible thing would be to evacuate the area since Andrew can’t afford to turn evil again… On the other hand, Betadron and Drake had to be defeated…
”...You’ll object to this, but I gotta come in there,” Andrew decided. ”If something happens to me, do what you gotta do. Don’t hesitate, alright?”

Nero was right. Noland STRONGLY objects to that, but what can he do to stop it?
“Okay,” Noland accepted without argument. “But the moment I sense anything unusual, I’m throwing you out.” Noland hung up and was about to accept another call. Mialyn didn’t want him to, so he shot a giant, dark fireball at him. Drago intercepted the attack by swatting it away with a strong left backhand. The fireball went out to sea and exploded.
”Here they come,” Drago warned.
“…” Noland was soon surrounded by Drake and his Drazardon army, and Calvin and Mialyn. Noland was currently waging war against the urge to call for backup. Part of it was because of pride. He’d be a liar if he said it wasn’t. The main reason was because he doesn’t know what might happen to the other Resistors. All he can remember was seeing Tracy getting corrupted rather easily on Neathia. If that happens to either of them, then he’ll really have his hands full, or maybe fuller depending on how this goes. For that reason...he pressed the panic button on his BrawlX...

The Resistors and company were all sitting around nervously waiting for an update to Noland’s situation. They knew he was at the scene of the battle, but didn’t know what was going on after Betadron’s Black Burn attack. The notifications they were getting on their BrawlX’s once Noland pushed his panic button made it clear for them.
“I’m sorry, sirs and ma’ams, but I’m going up there,” Alana declared. “And before you tell me, ‘Hold up,’ or, ‘We can’t let you do that,’ forget it. Him pushing the panic button throws all of your rules out of the window as far as I’m concerned.”
“...I agree,” an agent accepted.
“...Huh…” This took Alana by surprise. What was even more surprising was that Seiki and Ahio sped out of the house and went on their way.
”Um, just be careful…” Jadyn said with a lot of concern.
“Yep. Promise,” Alana acknowledged as she bolted out of the house.

Of course Alana would be in a hurry to go after her man… If Alana ever knows that Allen was thinking that… Well, no point in thinking about the inevitable, right?
But this is a rather serious situation though. Allen almost didn’t want to go to New York to defend humanity and stuff.Yes, Noland pushing the panic button is problematic and all, but what about Tinsley? He’s still here. This is setup for a classic villain plot: lure the heroes elsewhere so he can take out everyone remaining in the house. What’s worse is that Jenna’s here also. Is the madman – ‘alleged’ madman if you want to be fair – cruel enough to kidnap, torture, or kill his own adopted daughter?
He already has actually. Kidnapped and tortured, anyway… Allen doesn’t know that though.
But this thought of, ‘What would that say about me if Tinsley turns out to be the main villain, he does something to Sandra, Kendrick, Jenna, Lian, Jadyn, and everyone else in here, and I could’ve been here to stop it?” really bothered him. He was frozen in thought about this. Jenna’s beautiful voice thawed him out.

”Don’t wait up for us. We’ll be fine,” Jenna assured him. It was like she read his mind or something...
”Hm… How’d you know he wasn’t already going…?” Lian wondered.
”...No reason,” Jenna answered while getting flustered. She shook it off quickly though. She didn’t want anyone getting the wrong idea... ”Anyway… I’m not one of you guys, but if you ever need my help, just let me know. I can-”

”NOT go into a warzone,” Tinsley interrupted on his way into their conversation and into the room itself. ”Not saying we will, but IF we were to be attacked for whatever reason, we need all the help we can get. That’s why we’re in protective custody.” Tinsley then turned to one of the agents after sayign that. ”Isn’t that right?” he asked.
“Yep. I agree. Would be better to have a couple of powerful brawlers here, especially if someone’s doing this on purpose to lure the Resistors away from here,” an agent believed. “Anyway, Resistors, you’re fully authorized to engage the enemy if you choose to do so. They pretty much made New York look worse than 9/11. Anything you gotta do, it’s alright with us.”
Tinsley was thinking up some sort of scenario here. Suppose he did want to do something to these people while the Resistors were gone. What exactly would he do? Mess with Kendrick again? Maybe… Do something to Sandra next? That’d be evil… There were a lot of options… Which one would he pick?

Markus was very okay with the authorization, but Tinsley... Nah. Markus wasn't liking the situation. He was going to do something about it though. Hopefully, Tinsley doesn't notice. ”I’m sure you got it covered, but...hang in there, Noland… I don’t imagine you losing, but...who knows…” Markus thought in his mind. ”In the meantime...I think I know how to catch this guy doing something...”The plan was simple. Back at Markus’ house, a Gargulion spirit poked its head out of the roof. It looked in the direction where Markus and Gargulion currently were. As if it were accepting an order, it nodded its head, and then proceeded to move towards them. It progressively sank into the ground while moving though. It didn’t want anyone knowing it was going towards Tinsley.

Noland and Drago were watching as Calvin and Mialyn flew towards them. Yes, as strange as it sounds, Calvin was airborne. Betadron probably has something to do with it. At least, that was Noland’s idea when he was watching them come over. They gracefully landed 100 meters in front of them. Somehow, they were that confident to get that close to the Master Blaze. ”You… You swatted away my attack so easily… Who are you?” Mialyn asked. ”A Dragonoid. Can’t you tell?” Drago responded. “Well, congratulations, Betadron. You blew up New York City. Can you disappear now?” Noland requested. ”I would, but...the man clearly wants to ‘speak’ to his wife. That’s all. Once that happens, I’ll leave. Pinky promise,” Betadron assured him. ”Would she be dead after the ‘conversation’?” Drago then asked. ”Maybe. I’m not psychic. I’m just here to give the man what he wants,” Betadron responded. “Sure you are. Well, nice talking to you. Prepare to go back where you came,” Noland declared. ”Good luck with that. I got a good host this time. I guess now we’ll see just how strong you really are,” Betadron figured. Noland prepped his BrawlX for battle. At the same time, Drago glowed bright red for about a second. He then got into a boxing stance. "Look closely then," Drago dared him. ( Boss Theme 2)

Calvin knew Noland was a HUGE problem. After losing to Allen, he got a whole new perspective on just how strong the Resistors are as a whole. For this reason, he was entirely focused. He didn't have the same confidence as he had against Alex. He was silent...except to play cards obviously.
"Activating Darkus Zero!" Calvin played. This was usually a one-shot kill ability of Mialyn's. They'll see what this means.
"Deflect this," Mialyn challenged. A giant, transparent pyramid was erected around Calvin, Mialyn, Noland, and Drago. It rapidly shrunk, and as it did, it looked like it focused entirely on Noland and Drago. As it got smaller, Calvin and Mialyn passed through, but Noland and Drago remained. The idea was to crush them, then have the pyramid explode with them in it.
