Deadly Sea's Deepen Secret

Chapter 1

Dan and his friends from New Vestroia, Neithea, and the original brawlers were walking to Marucho's mansion for the year. When they walked in, there was a little surprise waiting for them. "What's he doing here," Dan yelled. "You don't need to yell Dan!" Runo hissed, "And why would we know how he got here."

The man they were looking at was on the wall laid back. He smirked. He had blue eyes, somewhat similar to Marucho's. He was tall and skinny, he had darkish blue hair. He had dark blue pants on, and a light blue t-shirt, with a blue jacket.

"You don't need to scream or yell. I'll tell you why I came." He said. Dan, Shun, Alice, Runo, Julie, and Marucho growled. The others seemed confused, so the man introduced himself. "I'm Aquen (Aqen) Marukura," He started.

"I've came back for the year, and for the Aquos Tournament coming up. They wanted a high ranked brawler to be a champion, for the person who won all the battles, and gets to the point for them to battle, Last year's champion."

"That doesn't explain anything." Shun snapped. "Looks like you six still have a grudge against me. I would too if I disappeared for say, eleven years." Aquen answered. "But, I came back to let you six know that the others will be arriving soon." He added, in a serious, but calm tone.

Dan turned to face the other brawlers. "If you must know, that's Marucho's older brother, and he's the Aquos brawler of my brother's team. With Shun, Alice, and Runo's sisters, and Julie's brother. They come back every so often, after saving many planets featuring the Bakugan," Dan said, "If you guys think you can take him, go ahead and try." He added.

"How hard can it be, it's just one guy?" Mira called. "Yeah, I think if Mira and I combine our strengths, we're able to beat him!" Fabia called. "Fine, let's see if a Subterra and Haos brawler beat me as an Aquos. As the attribute line goes, from strongest to weakest, Pyrus, Ventus, Darkuss, Haos, Subterra, and Aquos." Aquen stated.

Everyone agreed. They headed to Bakugan Interspace. When arrived, the battle started. "I'll start, Gate Card, Set." Aquen called setting down a Gate Card. "Bakugan, brawl." He added, rolling a bakugan. "Bakugan stand, rise Aquos Tsunami Sirenoid." He called. Arose of the field was a Bakugan similar to Klaus's Sirenoid, but this one had tail fins of blue crystal like shards. It has sapphire orbs around its arms.

The weapon it was holding resembled a cross of a sword an ax. "That doesn't scare me, I'm from Neithea, Bakugan brawl, Haos Aranaut, stand." Fabia yelled throwing her bakugan. "Bakugan brawl, Subterra Magma Wilda, stand." Mira called, throwing her bakugan.

"Time to show this loser, what were made of, Ability activate, Havoc Haos." Fabia called out. Aranaut was covered with a glow of yellow light, then, he shot a beam of light at the Aquos Bakugan. "Not so fast, Princess of Neithia, Ability activate, Deepen Secret." Aquen yelled, holding up an ability card. "Fabia, watch out, that's Aquen's Guardian Bakugan's main ability, it cancels the first ability played, and that the player who activated the fist ability can't use no more abilities." Marucho called out to his friend. "Say what?" Fabia snapped.

"You should've thought of a plan, before you activated the ability. Now, to deal with the Subterra, ability activate, Ocean Panic." Aquen called out. The battlefield was covered in water. The water sucked in Wilda. "No, Wilda." Mira yelled. "Now to finish this, Gate Card, open, Aquos Greeting. This gate card should take care of both Bakugan, since in a tag battle; the teams with the most bakugan on their side that are usable lose the battle." He said.

In a flash, the battle ended, with Aquen victorious. "That guy's smart. He took us out easily." Fabia said sadden by her loss. Marucho ran over to them. "I should've told you sooner, but Aquen's strategies work all the time, and he's just the 6th strongest in the world, I'm the 12th." Marucho stated. "You always have to have a plan before going against one of the six elder brawlers." Marucho added. "Six elder brawlers, who are they?" Ace asked annoyed.

"The six elder brawlers are the older brothers or sisters of us," Dan points to him and the original brawlers. "Their leader's my brother, who's the 1st rank bakugan brawler in the world, Rage Kuso." He added.

"Then its Shun's sister, Ven Kazami, Clair Gehabich, Alrie Misaki, Edict Makimoto, and Aquen Marukura." Runo added.

"And, that you guys held a 6 year long grudge, now it's almost 7." Aquen stated. Marucho growled slightly.

"I've came here first to see if Marucho was going to participate in the Aquos Tournament starting tomorrow." He added. "I'm in, and this year I'm going to defeat you." Marucho yelled at his older brother.

"Wonderful, but I'm guessing that you still haven't grown stronger the last time I saw you 11 years ago." He stated. When he was about to leave he said, "Now, you and your friends better not disappoint me tomorrow. Cause this year, The Deadly Sea's Deepen Secret will astonish this year's audience, just the same as last years."

"How do you not know that we might beat you, huh Mr. Hot-Shot?" Akwimos stated. "As I can tell already you are from Neithea, just like Princess Fabia, from your voice I say you want to lose so badly, but your strong spirit might not be so sure, as you can see, my younger brother's bakugan were far more annoying, but you, your worst." Aquen foretold.

"What the heck, did you just call me worst then annoying, that's it, I want to battle, please Marucho, let's show him who's the master at Aquos." Akwimos pled.

"Fine with me, I'll finish this." Marucho stated. Aquen just sighed. "Fine then, if you want to lose before the real fun begins, then I won't stand in your way." Aquen agreed.

"Gate card set." Marucho called throwing down the gate card. "Bakugan brawl, Aquos Akwimos, stand." Marucho rolled his bakugan. "Cool is the rule dude." Akwimos said standing and turning to full size. "Let's battle with my real guardian bakugan, Neo awaken. Bakugan brawl." Aquen yelled in a result of his bakugan being thrown toward the ground. The bakugan disappeared under the flooring. "Where is this bakugan?" Marucho asked.

Then, suddenly, as quick as it happened, Akwimos was on his side, and the bakugan that was rolled out was visible. "I'll like you to meet Aquos Orean Neo." Aquen said gladly. Marucho stared in horror. Orean Neo had a very long neck. The tail was longer. Its skin was an ocean blue. Nothing more was visible. The battle ended as Akwimos went back to Marucho. Marucho fell to his knees.

"Next time, you and your bakugan should watch out and wait for the real fun to begin, and, don't rush, think of a plan, if your going against me." Aquen said, and he lefted.

'That's the last time Aquen.' Marucho thought.
