A blaze sparked when a buckle with a fire insignia spun and transformed. This was... Kamen Rider Koden!
Kamen Rider Koden!
A man riding on his Ferrari V4, the Shorien, stopped and threw the keys to a female sitting behind him.
"Miki, Tsunami Buckle." The man, Reiji Kuroki said as he equipped a belt with no buckle. The woman took off her helmet that was white with blue stripes and took out a golden circular buckle with a water insignia on it then passed it to Reiji.
"Hen-SHIN!" Reiji put on the buckle and spun it in a clockwise direction, causing water to surround him and cover him, transforming him into Kamen Rider Koden, Tsunami Form. He sported a black cloak which he grabbed and threw to one side. A blue trident with a bright, sparkling ruby was at the shaft which he pressed a charged up a mini tsunami, attacking a few bat-themed monsters which fell from the trees. "Now let's try the Lightning Lance."
Reiji swapped to another golden buckle, this time it had a lightning insignia on it and the Tsunami Trident was changed into the Lightning Lance which had a emerald on the shaft again. He pressed the emerald and directed lightning and thunder at the bat-themed monsters who were soaked. He then swapped to the Flame Buckle which had a flame insignia on it. It turned his weapon into a gauntlet, the Flame Fist which was equipped on his right which had a Tigers Eye on it. He then jumped up and spun around, slamming it into one of the monsters before rapidly jabbing the other one and finally slamming the last one into the air.
"Miki, get ready for the next round." Reiji reverted to human form and get on the flame red Shorien and put on his chrome blue helmet with golden stripes and drove off as soon as Miki got on.
(The next day)
"Gust Gun!" Reiji was holding a green gun with a sapphire in it which shot mini-tornados at a giant spider-themed monster. He used the Gust Gun and propelled himself to the back of the giant spider who could not touch him then he changed to Lightning Form and pressed the emerald twice and charged up a storm.
"This should be enough to subdue this monster! Lightning Breaker!" The Lightning Lance and the storm was brought down onto the giant spider, causing it to blow up and turn into ash. A clumsy TV reporter, known as Sakura Miwa, stumbled forward with her microphone and camera as no one was willing to work with her. She filmed Reiji as Kamen Rider Koden until Miki noticed and knocked her out, dragging her and her equipment away. Reiji gave a grunt as he pulled out the Lightning Lance and got on the Shorien and rode off, leaving Miki to the crowd.
"Miki, are you there? Meet me at Kuwagata Mountain, over and out." Reiji sighed as he rode towards a mountain and switched off his phone while Miki was still struggling with the crowd. Suddenly, a blast erupted just as he was about to get off the bike at the mountain. A monster wearing dark, brick, red samurai armor and had a red oni mask and also sported a horned samurai helmet. It wielded a golden Tokkosho sword that seemed pulsate with energy. The edges the had silver energy growing out of it and forming an elongated blade. It was one of five legendary weapons, the Teru Kiba. (Sparkling Fang)
The monster growled as it walked nearer to Reiji who transformed into the green eyed Kamen Rider Koden Fire. Reiji oncegain, threw away the black cloak that was on him. The Flame Fist was already ablaze by the time he transformed and flipped backwards as the blade swept towards him. He thrust his fist forward and tried to land a hit, only to get cut down. A second legendary weapon, a chakram, the Marunoko was thrown at Reiji. The perfectly round weapon had silver jagged edges just like a saw and cut Reiji down. (Marunoko=Circular Saw)
Reiji grunted as he tried to fend off against both of the legendary weapons untile he swapped to his yellow eyed Tsunami Form. The trident he held countered the weapons perfectly. The three prongs to stop Marunoko and the hilt to counter Teru Kiba. He backflipped as he prpared to change again into the orange eyed Gust Form to create a storm for diversion then changed into his blue eyed Lightning Form to escape as fast as lightning. The samurai only known as Shinku Oni growled and roared as it headed away slowly, vowing that he will get that pesky masked 'hero'. (Shinku Oni=Crimson Demon)
(Peak of Kuwagata Mountain)
"Miki, glad to see that you managed to get the Shorien here, let's look for the Buckle." Suddenly, figures in black had a white scorpion marking on their faces. They were wearing black ninja attire and wielded twin silver hookswords with red cloth wrapped around the handles. "Miki, analyse the weapons."
"Analyse completed. Kiri Katanas wielded by the Onmitsu Corps soldiers, the Kazehei." (Kiri Katanas=Mist Swords, Onmitsu=Stealth, Kazehei=Wind Soldiers) Miki closed her laptop as she gave the dozen of Kazehei a glare as she put on a pair of black gloves with some steel pads. "Reiji, I can do this."
Reiji was about to say something but simply nodded, letting Miki fight as he searched for his fifth buckle. Miki clenched her fist as she slammed her fist into the first one, sending it down the mountain and used a counter kick on another sneaking behind it. She then let out a rapid barrage of fist at another four before throwing them down, causing them to disintegrate. The last six surrounded her but she did a sweeping kick around, causing three to fall off. She slammed her foot into the last third and her fist at the second last. The last one was then thrown off the cliff as Miki gasped and got on the Shorien and rode up the treacherous road which Reiji walked on. Somewhere further off, a white Tomahawk motorbike was parked on a roof as a man took off his silver helmet and wrapped a white feathered scarf around his neck.
(Reiji's location)
"Miki, sensors indicate I'm nearing, get ready a stabilizer." Reiji called again as he switched off his phone. He slowly slid down a steep slope and managed to see a silver sparkle and he then stopped. He grabbed the silver buckle and slid down the rest off the way, stopping at where Miki was before. The buckle looked like others except that it was sliver and had a mountain insignia on it. Reiji sat as Miki arrived seconds later, plugging it a cable to her laptop and a attachment to the silver buckle. The buckle flickered between gold and silver as Reiji waited then a giant explosion echoed up to the mountains.
"In the city... Miki, get on! Completion is at 75%? That 25% can be completed later, come on!" Reiji hastily started the bike and rode down the slopes that would have killed other inexperienced people. Reiji transformed into Fire Form and revved the engine as Miki held on tight.
(Kyowa City) (Republic City)
"Three giant bats... So they spawned off those I defeated yesterday didn't they..." Reiji said as he threw off his cloak and saw the completion of the buckle conversion to 95%. "Pass it to me when it's done, I want to test it out."
The Flame Fist suddenly reacted violently and set Reiji on fire. The bats laughed as Reiji managed to put it under control by swapping to a bronze Buckle with no insignia, turning him into the bronze Blank Form that had black eyes. Any elemental forms without the cloak that lowers power levels would react violently to unstable buckles due to the direct exposure thanks to the lack of the cloak, thus explaining the earlier phenomenon. Reiji growled as he materialized a bronze baton that had two rounded sides. He held the middle and spun it around until it extended into a rod. The rod, Blank Basher was used to slam down the three monsters, although unsuccessful. Reiji growled as the bats laughed again and heard a beeping sound as Miki shouted and threw the Mountain Buckle to him.
He transformed into the purple eyed Mountain Form equipped with a handle with a chain at one end. At the other end of the chain, a spiked sphere was attached. A topaz was at the other end of the handle for the other end had a chain. The mace named the Mountain Masher was spun around as the chain extended and wrapped around three monsters. They were thrown into the air as the topaz was pressed twice and it expanded and hit all of them before a explosion occurred and the spike sphere reverted to normal sized and the chain retracted to Reiji. Reiji sighed as he reverted to his human form and sighed as he stumbled. Miki helped him up towards the Shorien as she took over.
(Meanwhile...)
Sakura woke up, confused as she found her stuff next to her, not remembering anything that happened. Sakura trembled as she thought about the scoldings she would get as the Kamen Rider Koden tape was deleted. She then ran off with her equipment towards a ramen stall for lunch.
