Warrior of the Blood Red Moon
Act 1
Now Arriving in Tokyo
1st Night: The Arrival of Kiba
Night time in Tokyo, Japan, was a time when many people got to bed to rest up for the next day's activities. Even the great defenders of this large city, the Sailor Scouts, were or about to gain up on the sleep they had lost thanks to the last group threatening Tokyo and its civilians. However, not everyone or thing was asleep. High up in the air, a large something was flying through the sky silently. The silence was only broken by the flap of its huge wings. As it passed under the moonlight one could see that it was not anything seemingly of this world.
The thing was a huge purple and grey dragon whose body was in the shape of a castle that was at least three or four stories tall. Its neck and head were connected in the middle of one sides of the wide castle with its tail on the opposite end which had a small tower on its tip. Each of the dragon's short legs were at the out corners of the castle with golden manacle around each of its ankles and a length of chain connecting long enough to allow the great beast to walk on land without restraint. Huge purple bat-like wings protruded out the sides allowing it to stay airborne in its nightly flight.
The castle was very impressive itself, with four windows on each side that were as tall as the castle was. Two guard towers were on the castle as well, one on each side, near the front and a small room jutting out the front just above the dragon's neck with a clock on the front. However, the amazement didn't end there. On top of the castle, near the back, was a smaller red dragon whose body was a cross between a windmill and a castle's tower tip.
While the exterior of the draconic castle was amazing it was the interior that we need to go to. The inside of the dragon's castle body was hollow allowing anyone to live inside which four people did. In what could be considered the main chamber, which was a large room with enough space for a party, dark curtains were draped over the surprisingly small windows. There were several comfortable chairs with a sofa included. There was also a single table with two people playing Chess on it.
One of the people sitting down at the table was a man in his twenties that had a predatory aura around him wearing a black three piece suit but with no tie on. He had short yet messy black hair and blue eyes filled with some sort of aggressive yet amused spirit as he sat confidently waiting for his opponent to make his move. The person on the other side of the table was a teenager with short naturally spiky hair and brown eyes that were anything but amused. The teen wore a simple black shirt and light blue jeans as he peered through his miniscule shades at the board and his opponent with his hand hovering over his white pieces.
"Are you going to move anytime soon, Jason?" the predatory looking man jeered.
"Urusai, Lobo!" the teen, Jason, said glaring at the man, "Even after all these years of you and Francis teaching me how to play Chess you still kick my ass. Well it ends tonight."
Lobo grunted before smirking again, "As usual you talk big but can you back it up?"
Jason returned Lobo's smirk by tapping the side of his head, "I got a plan in the works that will prove to be your downfall, Wolfy."
The man growled at the jab making the teenage boy smirk, glad to able to rile up the caretaker of the castle. Before anymore verbal punches could be thrown the door to the room opened up revealing a very pretty girl with black hair that reached her shoulders and green eyes that seemed to shine. She wore a white button down shirt with a black necktie and a pleated blue skirt that almost reached her knees with an apron over the skirt. In her hands she had a tray with several cups on it, both which had steam slowly drifting up from them.
"Would you two like something to drink, Lobo-sempai, Jason-kun?" The girl asked with a smile.
"Yes please, luv," Jason said after he finished making his move while Lobo just grunted looking the board over.
The girl blushed slightly before walking over to the table taking the empty cups there and replacing them with the ones she brought on the saucers. Lobo stared at the board before he smirked and moved one of his black Bishops.
"Check."
Jason looked the board over with a look of surprise before he smacked himself, "Damn it."
Just as Jason was about to move, the girl snapped her fingers thus making one of the brown haired boy's Pawns move for him towards the Bishop threatening his King. As quick as a flash, the top of the white Pawn changed into the head of a wolf-like monster and swallowed the black Bishop before changing back and taking its place. The "eaten" Bishop reappeared to the right of the board.
"Thanks, Gillian," Jason said happily before giving her a quick kiss on the lips.
Gillian blushed brightly whilst shuffling her feet in embarrassment, "You're welcome, My Lord."
Jason sighed at the title. Even though he and Gillian were essentially boyfriend and girlfriend she was still the housekeeper of the castle shaped dragon, called Castle Doran. As the master of the castle he had several responsibilities as well as the title 'Lord'. Lobo grumbled before he went back to the game. Before he could move the doors opened again as another person walked in.
The person wearing a butler's uniform was 6 feet tall and had a muscular build, but it was mostly hidden under his clothes. He wore white gloves, had short neatly combed brownish hair and a strong jaw. His eyes were a strange violet color and had a gentle appearance compared to his strong exterior. He briskly walked to the three at the table before he bowed to Jason.
"My Lord, we have entered the city," he said in a monotone voice.
"Thank you, Francis," Jason said with a sigh, "Please locate the place we bought for Castle Doran and Shoo Doran to land. They must be tired after flying all the way from Texas."
"Right away, My Lord."
With that Francis walked back to do as Jason ordered. Lobo turned to his Lord with a bit of a smirk.
"For someone who asks his subjects to call him by his name, you do like ordering us around."
Jason sighed before pulling off his glasses and setting them down while rubbing the bridge of his nose, "Both you and Francis are like family to me with Gillian-chan," at that, he pulled the girl, who had set the tray down, into his lap. She let out a squeak of surprise, "Who is the love of my life. While I may hate being the "lord" of you three, it comes with the responsibilities of my "job", so to speak."
The game between the two males got back underway as Castle Doran touched down on the pre-bought lot far enough from the city as to not arouse suspicion but close enough for Jason and Gillian to drive to school. Soon with the two teens working together they defeated the predatory man who was a bit pissed.
"Thanks for the help, luv," Jason said, sipping the last of his homemade tea.
Gillian giggled as she hugged her boyfriend tightly. They weren't the average couple in any sense of the word, but that was part of the relationship that she enjoyed. They were different and reveled in their individuality. Feeling very good for no apparent reason, Gillian kissed Jason on the cheek, bringing a blush from the boy and a snort of amusement from Lobo.
With that the three got up and put the Chess set away for another day. Jason yawned as he walked through the halls leading to the master bedroom, cracking his knuckles as he went. He smiled as he reached the beautifully carved oak double doors and carefully opened them. The young lord of the castle then walked to a table in the room turning on the lamp there filling the room with its soft glow. The room was a cross between what you would expect in a mansion and a regular teenage boy's room.
There was a large king size canopy bed against the wall opposite of the door with desks, a dresser, a walk in closet, and a master bathroom. Jason fondly remembered the first time he'd entered this room when Francis said it was his. He didn't want such a lavish room but reluctantly took it after a bit of arguing from Gillian. As he changed into his night clothes, a simple pair of shorts and a white shirt, a voice spoke up from one of the walls.
"So we have reached Tokyo, huh Jason?" the person spoke in a thick German accent.
"That's for sure, Kibat," Jason said, crawling into bed, "And tomorrow we start our hunt for Fangires along with a few months of the hell known as school."
Blood Moon Warrior
In an old well kept temple on a hill in the Juuban district of Tokyo, a fifteen year old girl with long black hair and clothes befitting a priestess of Shintoism was kneeling in front of a fire softly chanting as her hands formed the seals related to what she was chanting.
Soon the fire flared casing the girl to gasp as images of an armored man appeared inside it. The man had on a full black bodysuit with armor on his chest, hands, and shoulders, which was blood red, silver or a combination of both. He had two silver bracelets on his wrists and one on his left ankle. His left leg did not seem to have any protection on it besides the bodysuit but his right leg was covered from knee to foot with a silver boot that had chains wrapped tightly around it.
There were three statutes around him, one on either side. The two flanking him were a foot tall and the one above him almost three feet tall. The statue on his left was shaped like a blue and silver furred werewolf with a gold horn on his forehead and what looked like gold and silver crescent moon attached to his back. The right statue looked like a green and gold fish man with a red crest on his or her chest and red eyes. A single silver chain was wrapped around the statute's chest connected to the red crest.
The one above the warrior was a purple muscular man with bits of silver and gold here and there. All three statues floated for a bit around the man before they collided with him. The wolf statue melted into his left arm while the fish statue flowing into the right arm and the muscled man smashed into his chest. Bright silver chains wrapped around his arms while the same chains covered his chest. Just as the chains exploded off his body the vision ended but not before the visor of his helmet flashed yellow.
"What was that?" the girl asked herself as she tried to make since of the vision granted to her by her temple's sacred flames.
She may not know why the gods gave her that vision or if the person in it was friend or foe but she did know one thing. He was chock full of dark energy and yet it did not have the evil that she was used to in her other line of work. If she had to compare it, the aura of the man felt more like a dark version of her friend Usagi's, so to speak.
With a sigh the miko priestess known Rei Hino got up and went to bed deciding that tomorrow she might have more answers.

The sun rose up above a surprisingly well hidden Castle Doran. As it did it shined through the curtains onto the sleeping body in the master bedroom. Jason groaned as he pulled the covers over his head trying to sleep. From the wall in-between the windows where a strange slightly warped violin hung, the voice from last night chuckled from the large oval shaped hole in the body of the violin.
"Rise and Shine, Jason," Gillian called out as she walked into the room and opened the curtains wide allowing more of the dreaded sunlight in.
Jason moaned before he snuggled deeper into the sheets as the person in the violin hissed slightly. Gillian placed her hand on her hips, her face a cross between a pout and a glare.
"5 more minutes please," Jason said sleepily before he felt the sheets being pulled off him, "GILLIAN!!"
"Get yourself cleaned up and dressed. If I have to go to that hell known as school you're coming with me, My Lord." Gillian said making Jason gulp with a bit of fear.
"Right…" Jason stuttered out before Gillian marched out of the room.
The boy released a breath that he did not know he was holding making the person in the violin laugh. Jason glared in that direction just as a robotic bat flew out of the hollowed out violin. The bat's entire gold and black face took up its body with everything above his top lip being gold with the exception of a green and black triangle shaped stone on his forehead. His bottom lip was black with small gold fangs poking out. His red eyes looked at the boy as his black wing with gold edging and white spider web design on the black parts flapped. His ears were the same as his wings, black with the spider web designs and gold edgings.
"That girl had you whipped, huh Jason?" the bat said making Jason flip him the bird.
"Who asked you, Kibat?" Jason said as he got out of bed cracking his back and neck as he went.
With a sigh he got ready for school. Within an hour he and Gillian were out the door running for the little shed that held all the vehicles for everyone on the castle. Soon the garage door on the shed opened up allowing the Suzuki Motorcycle Jason and Gillian were taking to school to come out. The motor roared as they went down the path from Castle Doran, which had taken the form of a mansion, pass a lake where Shoo Doran's head popped out and cooed to the couple as they passed and down to the road towards their junior high school.
Blood Moon Warrior
Usagi Tsukino was almost to tears as she saw her English test grade. Her day was practically just beginning and it was already looking grim. Not five minutes into the fist class, she got handed this failing grade. Now that second period was set to begin, she just wanted to make the bad paper disappear. Before she could conceive a way to hide the paper from her mother, there was a knock at the door. The teacher, Miss Haruna, walked over to the door and opened it where she was given a note.
Her eyes were wide with surprise before she calmed down and walked to the front of the room, "Attention. Class. Today I would like to introduce you to the two newest transfer students to our school. We may have only a few months left before summer but please make them feel welcome."
At the moment the transfer students, a boy and a girl who were both the same age, walked through. Both were wearing the standard school uniform but only the girl had a school briefcase. The boy had a sling backpack instead.
"Why don't you two introduce yourselves, and while you're at it, tell us a bit about yourselves as well," Miss Haruna asked politely.
Both teens looked at each other before the girl made an "after you" gesture to Jason.
With a shrug the boy spoke up, "My name's Jason Kurenai. I'm fifteen and I love to garden." At that a few boys chuckled, "but don't think that makes me weak." At that he cracked the knuckles on his right hand with his left.
The girl rolled her green eyes before she smiled which was a cross between innocent and sexy, "My name's Gillian Merman. I'm the same age as the knucklehead here and we both come from the same school. I love to play sports so please be gentle with me." She ended with a finger on her pouting lips causing many of the boys to develop a nosebleed. It was just the reaction she was hoping for. Of course, the girls glaring at her was an unfortunate side-effect, but it was one she was happy to live with.
After the introductions the teacher let them choose their seat. Gillian sat next to Usagi while Jason went for a window seat. A shiver went down the boy's back that he knew well.
'I feel like a rooster in a hen house,' he thought as he felt the eyes of many girls in the class watching him. 'How on earth did she convince me to go with this?'
Jason then recalled the 'incentive' kiss that Gillian had given him at the front of the school before she told him her plan.
'Oh yeah.'
Blood Moon Warrior
"I can't believe how cute the new student is," one of Usagi's friend's, Makoto Kino, said with a small blush. Her lunchbox lay forgotten at her side.
'Uh oh,' Usagi and her other friend in the school, Ami Mizuno, thought as they saw the look on Makoto's face. No doubt the taller girl was already fantasizing about the new boy and comparing her to her ever constant old boyfriend. Of course, what happened next came to both girls' surprise
"He's probably already taken by the new girl," the brunette sighed startling her friends. Both Ami and Usagi were stunned at Makoto's sudden declaration. Usually the brunette would try to find a way to meet with the boy in question, using her cooking skills, natural looks, and ingenuity to try and trap him.
Just as Makoto said that Gillian walked up to them with a smile, "Mind if I sit here?"
"Sure," Usagi said with a huge smile. Never let it be said that the odango-haired blonde would turn down anyone, if they were friendly enough anyway.
Gillian giggled as she sat down, "I heard you were talking about Jason a second ago."
Makoto blushed in embarrassment while her friends giggled.
"To tell you the truth you're right." That comment made the girls stop dead.
"Then why didn't you say that in the classroom?" Ami asked curious.
"In a second you will hear," was the green eyed girl's only response.
The girls looked at each other puzzled and was about to asks what the new girl was talking about when they started to hear music. They looked around wondering where it came from.
"Who is playing that violin?" Ami asked and Gillian cleared her throat.
The three friends looked at the new student as she pointed to a tree nearby. There leaning against the tree was Jason with a violin under his chin and playing a hauntingly beautiful melody.
"I never heard anything like this before," Ami said with her eyes closed as the music seemed to slowly blow away any and all the worries she had.
"So beautiful," Makoto simply said as pleasant memories of her family flowed to her mind's eye.
Usagi said nothing as her soul as well as a super powerful object of magic sealed inside her seemed to resonate with the music, washing away any fears and doubts she had. Jason just kept on playing without a care for a while longer before ending his recital with a simple pluck of a string. The boy brought his instrument down sighing in contempt. Unfortunately, that sigh acted like a starter's gun.
The girls surrounding Jason started screaming, asking for either a date or for another song. The boy looked around confused about what to do when he saw his "secret" girlfriend, Gillian, at a table with a couple of girls from their homeroom class and another one.
"I'm sorry, ladies, but I'm eating with my friend and her new friends." With that he swiftly gathered up his things and calming, yet quickly, went over to Gillian.
"It's not even a day and you have fangirls up to your armpits," Gillian said with a giggle.
"You're evil, you know that?" Jason commented as he smoothly and swiftly slid onto the bench his girlfriend was sitting at.
"I know," Gillian said with an innocent face and a giggle, "But I just love breaking fangirls' hearts."
The brown haired boy sighed before looking at Usagi and her friends, "I'm guessing she told you that we were together if she's telling you her "Master Plan" to rid the world of all fangirls."
"You hate fangirls?" Ami and Usagi asked in unison while Makoto listened in.
"You got that right, sister," Gillian said with fire in her eyes, "I especially hate rich girls that think they can use their money and looks to get anything they want."
"I know what you mean." Makoto said, nodding sagely, remembering when her old boyfriend had left her for a snobbish rich girl.
"By the way," Jason politely interrupted, "I never got you girls' names."
After a quick introduction Ami asked something surprising.
"May I please see your violin?"
With a shrug the boy opened up the case and swiftly turned it around making the girls gasp as they saw the instrument. It was unlike anything they had ever seen. The wood was a deep red with a border carved to look like a length of chain and the scroll of the violin shaped like a beautiful sleeping woman's head.
"That is a gorgeous violin." Ami spoke in a soft voice as she ran her hands over the woodwork.
"The store owner who sold me this violin said that its creator had sold his soul to the Devil to make such a one of a kind instrument," Jason said as he looked over the violin.
"A-are you serious!?" Usagi shouted, extremely scared. She didn't want to banish herself to Hell for touching such a tainted instrument.
The kid snorted before closing the case, "I bet the Bloody Rose's creator dedicated his life to make such a wonderful instrument. People became jealous of that fact and created the rumor to discredit him."
After that they started talking mostly about where Jason and Gillian were from, and what's there to do around Tokyo. The three girls paid rapt attention to the new kids' tales while offering the best information they could on the fun things to do in Juuban. Mentions of Youma came up now and then, since the district was famous for them, but neither Jason nor Gillian seemed concerned. Ami was the only one who noticed their easy-going attitude towards the monsters, but filed it away as non-important. Unfortunately, before they could get more gossiping done, the bell rang and it was time to go in. Just as the new friends walked in Usagi got a great idea.
"Hey, Jason. Why don't you and Gillian-chan come with us to the Crown Arcade this afternoon?"
The two exchange students looked at each other before nodding, "We would love to," they said in unison.
Makoto leaned in close to her friend, whispering, "You just want to delay the inevitable."
Usagi chuckled nervously at the accusation before she sighed with a heavy heart. It was true, so very true.
Blood Moon Warrior
That afternoon, after the last bell rang, Usagi, Ami, and Makoto waited at the schoolyard gates for their new friends.
"Are you sure they're going to come, Usagi-chan?" Makoto asked as she looked for the green eyes girl and spiky haired boy.
"I'm sure they will," Usagi said having one of her confident moments, "I don't know why but I feel like I know Jason and Gillian from somewhere."
"Do you mean on the news, Usagi-chan?" Ami asked looking at her friend. Maybe it might explain why they didn't seem too concerned about the aspects of Youma.
"No I mean…" The blonde haired girl looked around before leaning in close to her friends, "I mean from that time."
"Do you mean…" Makoto asked quietly looking around for eavesdroppers, "He's like one of us?"
"I can't really explain it, but…"
Just as she was about to say what she meant, they heard Jason and Gillian call out to them.
"Is that them?" Makoto asked pointing to what was beside Jason.
The teenager was pushing his motorcycle while his girlfriend walked alongside him. As soon as they got near their new friend Jason smiled.
"Hey, guys," The boy said as he pushed the bike closer, "Thanks for inviting us."
"What's with the bike?" Makoto asked looking over the motorcycle.
"Well we," Jason pointed to himself and Gillian, "are rooming with a few family friends just outside of Tokyo and even though Juuban is the nearest district it's too far to walk so we ride instead."
"It is a beautiful machine." Ami said as her and her friends looked the bike over, "How did you get a license to ride a motorcycle?"
"I know a friend who knows a friend." Jason said with a smile. It wasn't much of an answer, but no one was arguing about it, much to his relief.
Makoto and Ami gave the boy a stare that said they did not believe him. Usagi just took it in stride and grabbed Gillian's hand.
"Enough of that, let's go to the arcade!!" With that she ran off dragging the surprised green eyed girl behind her.
The girls quickly raced after her with Jason behind just a second to put on his helmet to follow after them. After a "merry" little chase, Usagi's friends and Jason reached the arcade where Usagi apologized many times to Gillian who looked like she was put through the spin cycle. Beside the blonde whose hair was up in two buns with pigtails going out the back and down to her feet was another girl with raven black hair that flowed freely down her back and was wearing a different uniform compared to Usagi and Gillian showing that they were from two different schools.
"Gillian!!" Jason shouted out as he screeched to a stop near her making sure not to rip off his glasses in his mad dash to take his helmet off, "Are you alright?"
Gillian babbled as her eyes had turned into anime swirls. Jason glared at Usagi who, along with the raven haired girl who accidentally looked his way, winched with a bit of fear. There was something in the boy's eyes that just radiated 'don't mess with my girl.'
Jason sighed. "Please be careful next time," Jason said while rubbing the bridge of his nose. The creepy feeling the two girls were feeling suddenly lifted, allowing them both to breathe easier. "I could barely keep up with you on my bike."
He looked and noticed the raven-haired girl who was watching the conversation. Curious, he glanced at Usagi, "Friend of yours?"
"My name is Rei Hino. I'm guessing that bun head here asked you to come here?" Rei asked with smirk.
"REI, YOU'RE SO MEAN!!" Usagi cried out with tears flowing down her cheeks.
Jason's ears rang as he tried to get his supercharged hearing back in order. Thankfully his supercharged healing was taking care of that. Still, he didn't think he would run into anyone who could hurt it. Well, anyone normal anyway.
"That…" Jason said quietly, "was loud."
After getting his hearing back he smiled at Usagi, "I didn't mind coming, Usagi. There aren't many arcades back home so it's good to go to one."
"Arigato," the bun haired girl said with a small blush.
Jason turned to Rei to introduce himself, "By the way my name's Jason Kurenai."
"Nice to meet you," Rei said bowing her head slightly.
"So are we going to have some fun or what?" Gillian asks with everyone agreeing with her thought some were a bit quiet about it.
When the seven teens went in side the two newer friends gasped in shock having never seen an arcade before today. Soon Jason was shuffling between the motorcycle racing games and the fighting games while Gillian was killing the high scores on, surprisingly, the shooting games with the other girls playing on their favorite games. After almost an hour they all gathered together to have a soda in one of the many booths in the arcade.
"Not a Dublin Dr. Pepper," Jason said whilst sipping on a Japanese style DP, "But still good."
"I hope Minako's doing fine with her photo shoot." Ami said as she slowly sipped her soda with a straw.
"Who's Minako?" Gillian asked, sipping on her milkshake.
"She's another friend of ours," Makoto said placing her glass down.
"She has blonde hair and blue eye just like Usagi-chan and they act so alike sometimes you think they were twins," Rei said with her straw in her mouth.
"She was so excited about the photo shoot today," Usagi spoke up remembering how hyper her fellow blonde was.
Flashback
"NANI?!" Makoto, Rei, Ami, and Usagi shout out along with, shockingly, two strange cats there in a room in within the shrine temple walls.
The cats looked like ordinary cats but one was female with black or dark blue fur and one was male with pure white fur, both with a single gold crescent moon on their foreheads.
"That's right!!" Minako chirps happily, "A man my father knew was by our home yesterday and said that he would like me to be in one of his photo shoots. He just took one look at me and asked if I would like to be in the shoot!"
Soon Minako's blue eyes began burning with a righteous flame. "SOON MY DREAMS OF BEING A MODEL WILL COME TRUE!!"
"Well mostly," the white cat said making the girl face plant.
"Artemis!!"
End Flashback
Usagi shook herself out of her musing when she thought she heard a sound similar to a violin. Jason also heard the sound and knew that it was from his violin the Bloody Rose, warning him that a Fangire had revealed itself. The teenager looked at Gillian who was the only one out of the group to hear it and both gave each other a slight nod.
Jason discreetly looked at his watch and his eyes shot open, "Aw shit. Gillian we got to go!"
"Where's the fire?" Makoto asked as the two new friends gather their stuff.
"Our friend wants us to help him with a few things after school and we totally forgot!" Gillian said mentally congratulating herself for the acting.
"Oh, my," Ami said a bit shocked, "You better go then."
With a quick good bye Jason and Gillian rushed out of the arcade and jumped on the motorcycle. Quickly putting on their helmets they rushed off with Jason keeping the facial section of his flip up helmet up while he rummaged through his pockets. With a smirk he pulled out a clear whistle that had the front and the top part of it shaped like a red pointy eared bat's head. Taking a deep breath he placed it up to his lips and blew. Instead of a sharp whistle there were five notes of a flute.
Blood Moon Warrior
Over at Castle Doran, Kibat was watching Lobo and Francis play Chess while hanging upside down from a specially made perch near the table. As the game was about to reach it's climax the same five tunes from the whistle that Jason blew rang through the halls.
"Looks like the boy is calling you, My Lord," Lobo said moving one of his pieces.
With a, "Finally," Kibat spread his wings and took off.
Blood Moon Warrior
A few minutes before the Blood Rose sounded, Minako happily walked to the bike she used to get from her school to the photo shoot with her cat Artemis in her bag.
"That was fun!!" she chirped happily with a huge grin on her face.
"You looked very beautiful in those outfits, Minako," Artemis said popping his head out of the bag.
"Arigato, Artemis." Minako said as she unlocked her bike from the bike rack.
"Aino-san!" Minako heard behind her and saw the photographer from the shoot, a handsome man in Minako's opinion with short brown hair and an athletic build, walking towards her, "You are a natural with the camera."
Minako giggled as Artemis sweat dropped in the bag, "Why thank you."
"I'm glad that we were able to immortalize your beauty on film," the camera man said holding up the camera, "You'll be forever remembered."
"Thank you, now I have to go and see my friends." She turned around to finish unlocking her bike when the man placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Why the rush?" he asked and Minako turned her head towards the hand and gasped softly when she saw the skin on the hand gain some strange blue stained glass-like patterns.
Minako quickly turned around to see that the photographer's cheeks also gained a strange blue stained glass-like pattern with his eyes changing from brown to blue and his voice getting deeper.
"I'm hoping to have you for dinner," he said licking his lips.
"M-Masaka," Minako said softly as she quickly jumped away from the non- human photographer.
Soon the man's body had changed into a half horse half human with sharp fangs, a black body, and strange blue stained glass-like armor on his body. He breathed out softly as blue images of his previous form appeared on the strain glass armor showing either the man's eyes, mouth, or whole face.
"Cheers," the images said as the horse monster charged Minako.
Quickly she dodged to the side setting the bag with Artemis down lightly, "I am not your normal helpless girl, you monster."
He held up her right hand which held an orange and gold pen that had a large gold star on top with an orange circle in the middle of the star and the gold symbol for Venus.
"VENUS STAR POWER, MAKE UP!!"
The pen started to shine a bright light that blinded the horse demon. As soon as the lightshow was over Minako was no longer the same. Instead of the school uniform she had been wearing she now wore what anyone that lived in Juuban would know as the clothes for one of the famous Sailor Scouts; Sailor Venus.
"I don't know why you attacked me, Youma, but I Sailor Venus will not stand for it!!"
The monster chuckled then laughed as he heard what Venus called him, "You think I'm one of those weak demons. Hah, I'm a Fangire. I'm well beyond them."
"We'll see, won't we?" With that Venus pointed her right arm at the Fangire with her index finger shining brightly, "CRESCENT BEAM!!"
The Fangire's image on his armor seemed to smirk before he batted the attack away with a single hand causing Venus to gasp in shock. The Horse Fangire charged at the blonde Sailor Scout who quickly dodged.
When Venus got to her feet she let loose another attack, "VENUS LOVE ME CHAIN!!"
The Fangire was caught off guard by the attack and was quickly roped up with a magical chain made up of hearts. With a roar the monster broke the chains trapping him before grabbing what was still in Venus' hand and twirling her round then slamming her into a car.
"VENUS!!" Artemis cried out and charged at the Fangire who just kicked him away.
"A-Artemis., Venus said softly as she slowly got up.
The Horse Fangire quickly got in front of the struggling Sailor Scout and grabbed her by the throat before slamming her into the car again. With an evil grin on the images on his armor he slowly chocked the life out of her.
"I was going to make it painless but now I'm pissed," The Fangire said in delight as he saw Venus struggling to get out of the monster's filthy hands.
Blood Moon Warrior
While Venus was trying her hand with the Horse Fangire, Jason walked slowly to the fight. He had ditched the school jacket for a black, silver and gold trench coat that had a blood red crescent moon stitched on the back with three titles stitched in kanji arranged in a triangle around the crescent moon. The bottom left corner had the "Savage Swordsman" stitched in blue while the bottom right corner had "Smooth Sniper" stitched in green and the top point had "Silent Juggernaut" stitched in purple.
He also had a black cowboy hat on that had a silver band on it tilted forward so that it shadowed his eyes making him look dangerous. He could hear Kibat flying above him thank to the flap of wings that was accompanied by a slight noise similar to metal rubbing against metal.
"KIBAT!" Jason shouted keeping his eyes forwards.
"OH!!" Kibat exclaimed as she swooped down to Jason's height, "Alright! Time to Fight!"
Kibat flew around Jason who shot his right hand up into the air, throwing the whistle he'd used to call Kibat while grabbing said bat at the same time. He held Kibat around his head making sure to keep a finger between his ears. Jason lightly tapped his partner on the head signaling for him to open his mouth.
"BITE!" Kibat shouted as Jason quickly brought him to his left hand where he bit him.
The boy felt the familiar rush of energy that was like chains flowing from the bite as strange tattoos that looked like a cross between tribal tattoos and stained glass windows appeared on his hands and his cheeks. With another tap Kibat let go as silver ghostly chains wrapped around his waist before they melded together to form a blood red belt that had a perch jutting out from the top of the buckle. There were also three strange slots on each side of his belt that held clear whistles similar to the one he had used to call Kibat but the designs were different and a slot on the front right was bare.
Jason held his left hand up catching the whistle he threw into the air and snapped it into the slot before holding out Kibat straight with his right hand calling out the phrase he used to transform.
"Henshin."
With that he attached Kibat to the perch on his belt and let him hang upside down from it. A strange ringing sound echoed from Kibat when he was snapped into place. A substance that looked to be quicksilver slowly covered Jason's body as he walked. He seemed to bulk up around his chest, shoulders, head and right shin before the quicksilver burst off his body like shattered glass shards as he took off in a jog. The ringing sound had also stopped.
In Jason's place was a tall armored muscular man. He was clad in a full black bodysuit with torso armor that had the front of it mimicking muscles painted red and the rest of it looking like a silver vest with a high collar. His shoulder armor resembled folded bat wings with a single small silver chain wrapped over them looking like it was holding them down. His fingers were covered in blood red armor with the tips molded to look like claws. The backs of his hand were also covered in armor but they were black with red edging. His wrists sported silver bracelets with a single small green gem.
His right leg was covered with a silver iron boot that reached his knee and was wrapped tightly with chains, as if to hold something back. The left foot however was only covered with the black body suit with a wide silver ankle bracelet that held a red gem on the inside of his ankle and another gem on the outside. His head was covered with a black helmet with the visor shaped like a pair of yellow bat wings with red edging. In-between the top points of the wings was a 2-d version of the bat head on the whistle he used to call Kibat with and had a small green gem between the ears. The mouth guard was silver and framed by the bottom of the bat wing visor with black "fangs" seemingly painted on.
Presenting… the Champion of Darkness…guardian of the weak and protector of the innocent…Kamen Rider Kiba!!
Awakening to Release the Chains of Fate!
Kiba quickly jogged towards the Fangire who he was slowly choking one of the Sailor Scouts. He swiftly clothes-lined the Fangire and pulled it away from the Scout who fell to the ground with her back to the car. Coughing, Venus looked to see who had saved her and her eyes widened when she saw Kiba for the first time. The Kamen Rider kept on jogging forward with his right hand gripping the Fangire's throat before he skidded to a stop throwing his opponent through a portable fence surrounding a nearby contraction site.
The Horse Fangire stumbled to his feet as the armor he wore flashed before showing his disguised form, "Who are you!?"
Kiba kept quiet as he slowly side stepped keeping the Fangire in his view. The monster did the same since he was carefully and hatefully eyeing this obstacle that had gotten between him and his meal. Soon they started jogging with Kiba jumping over the hood of a nearby car rolling as he landed. As he got to his feet the Fangire kicked another portable fence piece before charging. Kiba jumped backwards before tossing the Fangire over his shoulder. The monster tried to capture the Rider but Kiba kicked out with his armored right foot and catching the Horse monster in the gut.
As the Fangire stumbled back Kiba began wailing on him trying to keep the monster on the defense. The Horse Fangire kicked out with a hoofed foot causing the Rider to stumble back before he tripped over some junk nearby making him fall on his back. As the Kamen Rider quickly got to his feet the Fangire held his right hand up to the side of his face before he smacked the blue armor on his forearm with his left. Blue glass-like shards fell from the armor before gathering at his right foot and forming a sword.
Kiba cautiously got up as the Fangire picked up his new weapon before charging at his opponent and slashing at him. The Rider dodged the first few blows but three strikes got him on his torso armor before the Horse monster tried his luck with the Rider's gut, stabbing him. Kiba cried out in pain as he hunched forward, his arms covering his stomach. Venus got their in time to see that part and screamed in shock seeing her savior killed right in front of her eyes.
The Horse Fangire mentally smirked and tried to pull his sword out of the dead body but could not for some reason. The supposedly dead kid slowly lifted his head up while smirking behind his helmet before he slowly straightened up showing that his arms was holding back the blade.
"Got you," Kiba said before removing his arms showing that Kibat was holding the tip of the blade in his mouth.
Kibat chuckled at the shocked Fangire, "I don't think so."
Using the monster's shocked state Kiba backhanded him before pulling the sword out of the owner's grip and slashing at him a few times before a straight right kick sent him flying. Venus was shocked as she saw the masked man slowly walking to the downed monster. Kiba then stabbed his new weapon deep into the concrete and stood up straight. He reached for the set of three whistles on the right side of his belt before pulling out the one with the bat head on it. He held it up to the left side of his face, holding the whistle between his pointer finger and his thumb showing the right side of it. With a quick twist he showed the bat face to the Fangire as Kibat spoke up.
Kibat said eagerly, "Okay, let's finish this."
With that Kiba placed the whistle between Kibat's lips which caused the bat's red eyes to flash.
"WAKE UP!!" Kibat shouted as he flew off the belt to the right of the Rider and above his head.
"Hup!" Kiba said as he moved his left foot forward with his red gloved and armored arms spread out to his sides at waist height.
Kibat flew behind and around Kiba, blowing the whistle. This caused day to turn into night as a full moon hung in the sky slowly waning, but with an ever glowing pale shade of red. As it did so Kiba slowly crossed his arms in front of his at his wrists, his palms facing towards the outside.
Then the Rider kicked up with his right leg high and kept it there as the moon soon became a crescent moon. His arms shot out to his sides keeping him steady as he shouted, "BREAK THE CHAINS!!"
Kibat flew to the chained boot and twisted around it three times as it sounded like he was releasing or weakening the chains. When Kibat finished weakening the chains he flew away just in time for them to burst off the boot that opened up to reveal a blood red inner layer and three gems going down the boot, two on his shin and one between his toes and ankle with the outer layer becoming demonic bat wings.
Bending his left knee a bit, Kiba shot straight up high into the air until he was in front of the crescent moon. He kept his back to the Fangire and his left leg close to his body as he called out his attack, "Dark Moon…"
With that he flipped forwards and shot towards the Fangire with a flying side kick, using his right leg, "BREAK!!"
Kiba smashed into the Fangire, pushing it backwards along with himself thanks to the force behind the kick before he slammed the Fangire against a building's wall. The force of the attack was so great that a crater in the form of a pair of bat wings with a crescent moon between the top points was made. Kiba put his left foot down keeping the Fangire on the wall with his right. He heard Castle Doran roar as the Fangire's body seemed to turn into fragile rainbow colored glass. With a burst of energy along with a final push of his foot the Fangire's body shattered like glass as a white glowing orb rose up form where its body once stood.
As the Fangire shattered, Kiba twisted his body around till his back was to the Fangire soul. His right foot landed in front of his left. The bat wings on his shins folded up into its boot form as the chains reappeared to bind it together. Kiba watched as night turned back into day and Castle Doran flew down from the sky and landed right in front of him. The dragon's castle-like body shook as it landed. Its wings were a third smaller since the dragon needed Shoo Doran to be at full power.
Venus could only gape in a mix of fear, shock, and awe at the dragon/castle which had flown in from the sky. She couldn't remember seeing a creature like this before. Sure, Youma would take the resemblance to objects sometimes, but this was something else entirely!
Kiba watched with Kibat flying at his side as the dragon slowly chased after the bodiless Fangire.
"Finish it, Doran." Kibat said as the dragon caught up with the soul and quickly caught it in its jaws where it chewed on it for a few seconds before swallowing with a pleasant sigh.
The dragon turned around quickly before taking off into the air as Kibat went back to the perch on the blood red belt. Kiba calmly walked away from the battle site as Venus and Artemis raced to where he'd destroyed the Fangire, finding only blue and black glass shards and a carving in the wall behind them with Kiba walking away. The cat and girl saw him walking away and Artemis quickly jumped out of Venus' arms.
"Capture him, Venus! We need to ask him some question!" Artemis said.
Venus nodded before starting one of her attacks, "VENUS LOVE ME CHAIN!!"
A glowing golden chain made up of hearts shot straight at Kiba who seemingly ignored it. Just as it was about to reach him, the Rider quickly twisted around and backhanded the attack away from him. The Sailor Scout and Moon Cat were shocked at what they saw and could only watch as he walked away. Sailor Venus quickly got out of her shock and pulled out her cell phone from her sub-space pocket and took a few snapshots just as Kiba was walking around the corner.
"The girls are not going to believe this," Venus said as she looked the photos over which were a little blurry since Kiba was walking when she took it.
Artemis quickly jumped onto her shoulder looking the photos over, "Take a picture of the crater while you're at it."
Venus quickly did so and then grabbed her bag before running away. She did not want to talk to the police at this time. Instead, she was going to talk to her friends about this new development.
Blood Moon Warrior
The Hikawa shrine shook as a lour cry of "NANI!?" rang through the ground when Minako finished telling the girls what had happened after the shoot.
"This Fangire thing blocked one of your attacks, Minako-chan!?" Rei shouted as the other girls leaned in close.
Minako admitted "Yeah, it did. A lot of monsters fell from that attack yet it just shrugged it up."
"Off…" Artemis said as Minako's awful memory of saying kicked in.
"Whatever," Makoto said, "What happened after it broke the Love Me Chain?"
"Well, after he broke it he used what was left of it to throw me into a car." All the girls and the dark blue furred cat looked at her with a bit of worry, "Artemis tried to save me but he was batted aside."
"I still feel that hit," Artemis said as he stretched his back with a loud crack. He was still sore from the Fangire batting him aside.
"After that he began choking me and would have killed me if not for that man that pulled that monster off me." Minako was interrupted when Usagi cried out.
"ARE YOU OKAY!?" the girl quickly grabbed her fellow blonde by the shoulders and looked at her neck from all sides.
"I'm okay. A quick transformation healed me right up," Minako said while trying to calm her friend down.
"Can you describe the man?" Ami asked.
"I can do something batter," Minako said as she quickly rummaged through her bag before pulling out her cell phone and quickly brought up one of the pictures she had taken of Kiba.
The other girls quickly gathered around Minako and looked at the picture of the armored man. Makoto and, surprisingly, Ami blushed while Rei gasped in surprise.
"I've seen this man in one of my fire readings!" Rei shouted, causing the girls and the cats to shiver.
"Is he a new threat?" the dark blue cat, Luna asked worriedly. If he was then they needed to take care of him before he started causing chaos.
Rei shook her head as she told her friends and the Moon Cat advisors what her vision had been of. The seven of them kept quiet as they thought went through their mind. Rei, Minako, Makoto, and the Moon cats wondered what the man was while Usagi and even Ami were wondering why the person felt so familiar.
Blood Moon Warrior
Jason sighed happily as he sat on one of the chairs in the main chamber with a hot cup of tea as Gillian refilled Lobo and Francis' cups while they were playing another game of Chess. Kibat sat on Jason shoulders as he thought about what had happened in the past twelve hours.
"I believe, ladies and gentlemen, that our stay here in Tokyo will be fun," Jason said while grinning into his cup as his girlfriend, Francis and Kibat nodded while Lobo just snorted.
