12

Alice works at Runo's family restaurant, noticing the guys' interest in her while worrying about disclosing her grandfather's connection to Hal-G and Naga. Runo remains upset over her loss to Shun, breaking a cup that prevents Alice from speaking up. Dan checks his ranking at 97 and sees Shun in 6th place, prompting him to recall their childhood friendship and the origins of Bakugan. Shun experiences a flashback to his ill mother in the hospital, who asks him to retrieve her purse. He returns home to find a message from his grandfather demanding he become a ninja. During a battle with Dan, Shun's emotional distress causes him to lose, leading to his mother giving him Skyress before entering a coma. His grandfather then declares he can no longer battle.
