Thanks for the reviews! It means so much to me! Well, here it is: Chapter Twenty! After this chapter, I'll end this and start the sequel. I already have the summary and idea in my head. (GET OUT YOU TEASING STORY PLOTS! I HAVE OTHER STORIES TO WORK ON!)

Disclaimer: I so do NOT own Bakugan. (Like, why would I? I don't want to own something that was altered into something ugly…but not as ugly as math. *shudders* THAT is way too ugly for my head.)

Runo walked down the corridors slowly. It was strange to walk down her old high school after being gone so long. It was strange to realize she had a twin sister. A twin sister who was a princess from another planet. Meaning, she was a princess too. A half-alien, half-human princess. Nothing strange about that.

"God and I can't use my new powers to kill The Lala Group. They think they're all that." Runo muttered as she dialed her locker combination. Like every high school, there was a group of mean girls who were spoiled bitches and loved to pour misery over the student body. And because of her abnormal hair color, Runo was the Lalas' favorite target.

At least you'll never have to deal with them again now that you have to "transfer schools". A nagging voice in the back of Runo's head said. Runo shrugged at that.

"Well, well, well. Look girls, the freak of nature has arrived!" A cold voice behind her snarled. Runo rolled her eyes.

"What do you want, Tiffany?" She snapped, without turning around. Tiffany Lala was the leader of the stupid group and let everyone know by flaunting her social status to everyone within earshot. Everyone did what Tiffany said. This is why she picked on Runo so much. She was the only one who dared to stand up to Tiffany. No one wanted to cross paths with either girl.

"Oh, you wound me Misaki." Tiffany cooed. "I just want you to know that we won't miss you at Wardington High." Runo shut her locker and turned to face the brunette.

"The feeling is mutual." She said before walking towards her next class. Just one more day of those losers and I'll be free.

"What's wrong, Runo?" Her friend, Meg, asked. Runo shook her head.

"It's nothing, Meggy." She dismissed. Meg glared at her; she knew better.

"Okay, whatever." She said, unsure. "Hey, what school did you say you were going to? I might come and visit you!" Runo felt her blood freeze.

"Uh, you don't have to do that!" Runo squeaked. Meg flipped her long blonde hair.

"Uh, yeah! As your best friend, I have to stay loyal to you! So what school are you going to?" She asked, again. Runo sighed.

"I'm going to a boarding school…in the country…and I'm not really sure they allow guests. I mean, I'm going to come home every other month." She pointed out. Meg giggled.

"I just wanna know the name!" She exclaimed. Runo shook her head as she walked into her biology class.

"I-I don't remember." She said. Meg huffed and walked to her seat as the rest of the class shuffled in.

"Good morning class." A tall, petite, redheaded woman said as they took their seats.

"Good morning Mrs. Jackson." The class chorused. Mrs. Jackson was one of the few teachers that the student body liked. She never gave out pop quizzes; she gave out sweets, and always gave them a choice to do for an assignment. Plus, she was one of the youngest teachers so she sometimes suited as a guidance counselor to the teens.

"Today, we will be saying good-bye to Ms. Misaki and I thought: What's the point of work if you're going to leave? So with that in mind, I decided to give you all a free period to do whatever you want. Runo, I need you up here to collect some old papers." Mrs. Jackson shouted over the cheers coming form the teens. Runo scooted back her chair and stood up.

"Nice outfit, Misaki." One of Tiffany's groupies hissed. Runo barely glanced at her.

"I mean it! Denim capris with that yellow over the shoulder top and pink flats? Genius!" Runo stopped and looked at her. It was Jessica Moonstone. Out of all of the groupies, Jessica was the nicest. She never said anything bad about others but she never exactly stopped Tiffany either.

"Thanks, Jessica. I like your outfit too." Runo said before walking off. Jessica glanced at her pink tank top, white shorts, and red flip flops before grinning at the blunette.

"Yes, Mrs. Jackson?" Runo asked the redhead politely.

"Well, it seems my favorite students always fly away first. First thing's first. I'm gonna miss ya." Mrs. Jackson admitted. "I remember that young lady who stepped into my class so long ago. She was timid, insecure, and afraid. Now that I look at you, Runo, I see that girl is still there but protected by a new you. When I see you, I see a strong, powerful, and daring young lady who would do anything for her friends and family." Runo blushed at the compliment.

"T-Thank you Mrs. Jackson." She said. "Not to be rude or anything, but class is almost over and I was wondering if I could have my papers?" Mrs. Jackson smiled.

"Of course!" She exclaimed as she shuffled through her files. "Don't be saying anything but we just got our yearbooks and it'd be shame for you not to take a reminder of your school, wouldn't it?" Mrs. Jackson smiled sweetly as she handed Runo a hard cover book sandwiched between dozens of old papers.

"Thank you!" Runo exclaimed as the bell rang. "I'll miss you, Mrs. Jackson!"

"Have a good time, Runo." The redhead said as she waved while Runo ran out of the classroom.

Unfortunately, none of the teachers were cool as Mrs. Jackson so Runo was forced to take math tests, present history papers, run five laps around the track, play the violin and guitar for forty-five minutes, sing in rounds for an hour, write similes and metaphors, cook a complicated recipe for Home Economics, until finally, the bell rang at 3:50 pm.

Thank Neathia the day is over! Runo thought. I forgot how tiring high school is!

Runo dialed her locker combination, gathered all her things, took down her locker decorations, and stuffed them into her backpack before walking outside where all the students waited. The buses were always late so they just lounged around in the grass for half an hour. Runo always sat on the fountain's edge next to Meg.

"Cookie?" Meg offered, holding out an Oreo. Runo smiled and took it.

"BBQ or Sour Cream and Onion?" Runo asked as she held out two chip bags. Meg scrunched up her face making the blunette laugh.

"You know the answer!" Meg exclaimed, snatching the Barbeque bag.

"So-ray!" Runo laughed. Tiffany strutted by, her groupies right behind her. They were all giggling about something. Normally, Runo would have ignored them but something they said caught her attention.

"Once Shunny-Kun sees how boring that redheaded Russian girl is, I guarantee he'll come crawling back to me!" One of them insisted. Tiffany snorted.

"Of course he will! I don't know why he broke up with you! Or why he went for that pathetic goody-two shoes!" She exclaimed. "Shun Kazami must be blind to have dumped you, June! Then, when he comes back, I can convince Danny-San to go out with me! I mean, everyone says he has a girlfriend but we've never seen her! He lies to prevent any loser fangirls."

Runo gripped her water bottle tightly. Calm down, Runo! You know the truth and Tiffany will always try to steal the spotlight!

Suddenly, everyone screamed and ran towards a large cluster. Meg squealed.

"OMG, Runo! They're here! The Bakugan Battle Brawlers!" She shrieked before running over. Runo dropped her water bottle.

"Oh, my." She said as Tiffany ran by.

"DANNY-SAN!"

"Shunny-Kun!"

Runo rolled her eyes as she walked over to the growing group and laughed as heard the fangirls scream.

"Sign this!"

"Oh my God, I'm your biggest fan!"

"Why is there a cheerleader there?"

"Will you marry me?"

"I love you!"

Runo smirked as she pushed her way through the crowd.

"ENOUGH!" She hollered making everyone shut up. "You're scaring them! Why would anyone date a fangirl who proclaims her love for him every five minutes? Honestly, what are you? Five?" Everyone stared at their feet, embarrassed. Tiffany glared at Runo.

"God, why can't you just die you bitch?" She spat, knowing everyone could hear her. Runo crossed her arms and glared daggers at her.

"Because my boyfriend will miss me. And if he doesn't, I'll come back to life, kill him, and haunt him forever." Runo said. Tiffany laughed.

"You so don't have a boyfriend." She scoffed. "You rejected every single guy in this school."

"And they've all rejected you so we're even." Runo shot back making Tiffany turn pink.

"Whoo, go Runo! Take her down! Girl fight!" Someone shouted making Runo roll her eyes.

"Very mature, Kuso. You're such an idiot." She said. The crowd parted and revealed five out of six Bakugan Battle Brawlers. Dan punched her arm playfully.

"Yeah, but you're dating this idiot aren't you?" He shot back. Runo punched his arm 'playfully' and laughed when he fell down from the force.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you're dating the hot headed, violent, tomboy." She pointed out. Dan shrugged as he got up, and when Runo looked away, he rubbed his sore shoulder.

"YAY!"

Everyone jumped at Julie's high pitched squeal. Her five friends turned to face her.

"Julie, do you have to be so loud?" Alice asked, clutching her chest. Marucho adjusted his glasses.

"It's not humanly possible for someone to squeal that high." He said. Shun shook his head as he gently rubbed Alice's back.

"So sorry, but I've been waiting six years for Dan and Runo to admit they're dating!" Julie squealed making the Pyrus and Haos brawler blush.

"SIX YEARS?"

Runo raised an eyebrow at the sputtering Tiffany. "Yeah, six years. Technically, it's been ten years since we first met though." Tiffany struggled to find a comeback but was at a loss for words.

"Runo!" A sixth voice broke out.

"Oh, yeah. You have a visitor." Shun said. Runo glanced over his shoulder and squealed when she saw….

"Fabia, you're here!" She exclaimed, running over to the blunette to hug her.

"Hey, I get no love?" Another voice interrupted making Runo laugh.

"Hey, Ren!" She greeted, giving him a hug.

"Ready to go, sis?" Fabia asked as Dan grabbed Runo's backpack and nearly fell again, not expecting it to be so heavy. Runo beamed.

"I'll miss everyone and everything but hell yeah, I'm ready!" She exclaimed. Fabia grinned as the other five brawlers walked over to them.

"Fabulous, Serena is waiting for us on Neathia." She said before lowering her voice. "We're going to walk back to your house then teleport from there." Runo waved over her shoulder.

"Toodles!" She called while Meg blinked, the school scratched their heads, and Tiffany fumed.

Runo laughed as Dan took her hand while they walked towards the café. Shun took Alice's hand as she smiled. Julie was giggling as she texted Billy. Ren shyly took Fabia's hand making the two blush. Everything seemed so perfect, both on Earth and on Neathia. If only they knew their troubles were just starting.

Well, *sniff* that's it! The sequel will be up soon! And in case any of you care, I turned 13 last Monday.
