Plot[]
Masquerade manipulates two boys, Kosuke and Takashi, into using his Doom Cards against the Battle Brawlers. He tells them that if they defeat the Brawlers, he will reunite their friend Mui with her brother. Wanting to help their friend, the boys track down Runo and Marucho, who pick up Alice and challenge them to a battle at the airport. Meanwhile, Dan is lost in the airport and runs into Miu's brother, who notices that he is talking to Drago. The battle heats up between the two Brawlers and Kosuke and Takashi, with the Brawlers not doing that well. Luckily, Alice, who is exceptionally skilled in battle techniques, guides them to victory.
