Red and I were traveling through the portal after leaving Hero World and after 20 minutes we arrived at the end of the portal and exited it to find ourselves back at Ruin.

"We made it Red" Masayo stated

"Yes Masayo, we're back home" Red replied

At that moment another portal appeared and Spectrux came out of it.

"Hello Spectux" Red greeted

"Red, Masayo, did you two just get back" Spectrux asked

"Yeah we did, how was your training in Star Dragon World"

"I managed to get a new power, so now I'm stronger then before"

"Thats great Spectrux, turn to your card form and Masayo will return you to Charlotte"

"Alright" Spectrux replied turning into his card

At that moment a third portal appeared and Greg and Adelaide with 2 other dragons emerged

"Yeah we made it back guys" Greg said overjoyed

"You don't have to sound so surprised" Adelaide said annoyed

"So this is Earth, looks nice" The middle dragon stated

"Wonder what kind of fight we'll have here" The left dragon asked

"Hey Greg, whats with the new monsters behind you" Masayo asked pointing to the dragons

"Oh hey Masayo, let me introduce you, this is Ethereal Overlord, Gang the King" Greg introduced pointing to the middle dragon

"Just call me King"

"Finally this is Wicked Dragon Emperor, Billion Knuckle" Greg introduced pointing to the left dragon

"Do me a favour and just call me Billion"

"Man, you got some great monsters, their Raging Spirits aren't they" Masayo asked

"Thats right"

"We gave the boss training while he was in our world and decided to come with him" King explained

"Boss?"

"Yeah, I kinda ended up becoming their boss"

"Thats cool, hey lets go meet the others"

"Good idea, hey guys go back to your cards"

"Sure boss" Both dragons replied turning into their cards

~Tatsumaki Academy~

"I wonder if Masayo, Greg and Spectrux have come back from training" Charlotte asked

"I'm sure they'll be back soon" Tsukomo stated

"Yeah, when I went for training it didn't take me too long" Yudai stated

"Hey everyone" Masayo greeted walking in the classroom with Greg

"Welcome back Masayo, Greg" Tai greeted

"Did you guys complete your training" Jessie asked

"Yeah" Masayo and Greg answered in unison

"I'm so glad, did Spectrux come back with you" Charlotte asked approaching Masayo

"He came back after me, he's waiting at the buddy lounge with Adelaide and Red" Masayo answered

"Thats great" Charlotte said relieved

"So you guys wanna do the usual" Greg asked

"Yeah, I'll tell Ishin to meet us there" Tsukomo stated

~Later at Ruin~

As soon as classes ended for the day we headed to Ruin and met up with Ishin heading into the shop.

"Alright lets play a few games I wanna show off Adelaide's new strength" Greg said excited

"Don't be in too much of a rush, I wanna surprise everyone at the tournament" Adelaide said

"Come on Adelaide we wanna have some fun too" Billion complained

"Now now you two calm down" King said

"Those three make a great trio" Masayo stated

"Kinda like you, Greg and I" Charlotte stated

"True, you three are an amazing trio" Yudai stated

"I agree" Jessie stated

Suddenly we were hearing a commotion over by the fight stage monitor so we head off to investigate.

"Whats with the commotion" Tai asked to no one in particular

"Don't know" Tsukomo answered

We look at the monitor to see the conclusion of a fight between two fighters.

"Astralkus attack the fighter" A fighter exclaimed

"Sure thing, time to put this fool on ice"

The boy that was stuck had his life dropped to 0.

"Game Over, Winner Rosa Cerretti"

"Wow, you're sooooo strong, how do I get as good as you" The small boy asked

"Keep practising and find your play style" Rosa answered

With that answer the girl called Rosa left the stage and in a minute reached the top of the stairs.

"Hey, impressive fight you had there" Tsukomo complemented walking over to the girl

"Thank you"

We all approached her to see she was around our age with long blond hair, wearing a straw hat with a red bow, wearing a white and yellow sundress, white gloves, a silver bracelet with a picture and wearing black casual shoes.

"Let us introduce ourselves, I'm Masayo and these are my friends, Charlotte, Greg, Tsukomo, Tai, Yudai, Jessie and Ishin" Masayo introduced

"Hello" Charlotte replied

"Hey" Greg greeted

"Once again nice to meet you" Tsukomo stated

"Hi" Tai greeted

"Good to meet you" Yudai greeted

"Hello" Jessie greeted

"Nice to meet you" Ishin greeted

"So nice to meet you all I'm Rosa Cerretti" Rosa greeted

"I hope you don't mind me asking but are you foreign" Ishin asked

"Why yes I am" Rosa stated

"Does that mean you're here for the The Buddy Cup International" Greg asked

"Yes, my team and I just arrived in Japan for the event and decided to come to the local shop to practise" Rosa stated

"Thats cool, so where are you from" Charlotte asked

"We are from Italy" A voice announced from behind Rosa

We looked at the sources of the voices to see 3 boys and 2 girls around our age 1 boy had silver hair, wearing a black fedora, white vest, blue undershirt, black gloves, white sneakers and blue jeans and the other boy had short purple hair, wearing a hoodie, a bracelet over the left sleeve, blue shoes and grey tracksuit pants and the girls seemed to be twins both had long orange hair, wearing black shirts, blue vest, black jeans and matching orange bracelets.

"So those must be the rest of your teammates" Yudai stated

"Yes" Rosa answered

"Hello all, my name is Alessandrino Croce" The silver haired boy greeted

"My name is Angelo Chicchini" The purple haired boy greeted

"Hi there" The 2 girls greeted in unison

"I'm Isabella Brancati" The one on the left greeted

"I'm her sister Rea" The girl on the right greeted

"Seems like an interesting bunch" Adelaide said

"Oh, who's your buddy" Rosa said interested

"That would be me" Greg stated

"Your buddy is cool, here is my buddy" Rosa said

In a vortex of ice the monster Ice Blade "Astralkus" appeared but in an SD form which made his appearance a lot small in size.

"Freeze, greetings all I am the mighty Ice Blade "Astralkus" and I have sworn to protect my buddy with my life" Astralkus exclaimed

"Thats a great choice in buddy monster Rosa, I hear he is a powerful card" Tsukomo stated

"Thanks"

"I wanna introduce myself too nyan" A voice said near Angelo

In a flash of light a small cat in boots I recognised as Cait Sith in Boots appeared.

"Cait Sith in Boot huh, so you must use the Fairy archetype Angelo" Ishin exclaimed

"Yes thats right" Angelo answered

"Angelo is my all important buddy nyan, Gao would be so proud of me nyan" Cait Sith said hugging Angelo

'I wonder how he knows Gao Mikado' Masayo and the others thought

"I can't introduce my buddy here but mine is Stellar Deity, Astraeus" Alessandrino stated

"Thats a great defensive card" Charlotte stated

"We'd rather keep our buddy's a secret for now if you guys don't mind" The twins said in unison

"Thats fine, hang on where's your last member" Jessie asked

"Oh he wanted to stay back at the hotel to get his things organised" Rosa answered

"Well its great to find a team from another country here" Masayo said

"Indeed it is, although I'd love to offer you people a game we must be returning back to our hotel to get ready" Rosa stated

"Thats alright great to meet you guys" Charlotte stated

"Bye guys see you during the tournament" Greg yelled as they left

With that the two teams from Italy left the shop.

"They were interesting people" Yudai stated

"Though since there was a person missing we don't know what to expect from their last member" Tsukomo stated

"That doesn't matter, besides we should get some practice in before it gets late" Masayo exclaimed

"Yeah" Everyone replied

"Well well so that is the team we will be up against" A mysterious figure stated in the shadows

"Yes sir, Masayo and his group are also participating" Kreg stated

"Doesn't matter, we'll still win either way" The figure said as they disappeared
