Koudoutai: Fight for the Future
Hello, Readers! I'm back again! And welcome to Book 3 of Koudoutai. I wish to thank the readers, and reviewers for reading and
reviewing Koudoutai: The New Enemy, and the side stories that I've written, and for reading Koudoutai: The Zodiac Strikes Back. I really
appreciate it. And in return, I'll be commencing the first three chapters.
For those who are new here, READ KOUDOUTAI: THE NEW ENEMY and KOUDOUTAI: THE ZODIAC STRIKES BACK
FIRST!. These two fics are prequels, so read them first before going here, So that you won't get confused.
In this fic, expect a lot of twists and turns, as team DDS and CLAMP School are going to get embroiled in something they would not
expect. You'll see when you start reading the fic.
Also note that this will be the final fic of the Koudoutai story arc. Yes, after writing the first two fics (Book 2 was very, very long, almost
50 chapters…oh yeah, in case you don't know, most of the Kamen Rider TV series have 50 episodes), I was starting to burn up mentally,
but I persevered, since I've started in early September, and just finished in late October, so I couldn't bring myself to get some rest, so
while I still have some ideas popping into my head, I'll take advantage of it.
And now…here's a little spoiler. While Books 1 and 2 delves heavily on detective themes, rescue and covert operations (you get to see
these themes on DSQ anime series), this fic will now borrow heavily on Kamen Rider Ryuki. For those who are not familiar with Ryuki,
I'll tell you. In Ryuki, there are 13 Kamen Riders (the idea of this Tokusatsu series is taken from a manga that features 13 Riders,
published in 1971), all of whom were selected, and are tasked to kill all of the 12 Kamen Riders until one is left alive. The last Kamen
Rider standing will get the prize he/she will desire. It's a last man standing thing. It's sort of similar to WWE's Elimination Chamber. It's
every man, or woman, for himself/herself. And that's what it's going to be the main theme here. Of course DDS and the Digimon crew will
play a big part here, and also, the Zodiac members who deserted the organization will become DDS allies, but some of them will be killed
within this fic. You'll see it when we get in the middle of this fic.
Moreover, most of the stories involved here will be more character-driven, as it will focus mostly on the 12 Zodiac fighters, and note that
some of the Zodiac fighters will change their names to show that they're no longer a part of the organization.
In Books 1 (Koudoutai: The New Enemy) and 2 (Koudoutai: The Zodiac Strikes Back), DDS and the Zodiac fought back and forth, from
kidnapping, to hi-jacking, to ambush, and even murder. While you get to see them in action, I haven't delved much on some of the Zodiac
members' origins (Sasoriza's origin can be seen on My Brother's Keeper DSQ fic). And also, I did mention in Book 2, on the Zodiac
Digests that some of the Zodiac will meet their doom, while some will turn good guys. And that's also going to be the theme of this fic.
Well, you get to see this scenario once the chapters come into place.
And lastly, aside from the elements I'll be borrowing from Kamen Rider Ryuki TV series, I'll also be borrowing the elements from its 2 TV
specials: Kamen Rider Ryuki: Episode Final, and Kamen Rider Ryuki: 13 Riders Special.
And lastly, in the later stages of Book 2, the portal between the human and Digimon worlds appeared at random times, and wild and rabid
Digimons came out, attacking humans, and the 2nd Iteza was the only one so far to take them out. Hence it will appear here in this story,
and later in this fic you'll see what caused the random portals to come out, and who's responsible for this.
Also, three of its Zodiac members, Shishiza (Leo), Otomeza (Virgo), and the red-armored Futagoza (Gemini) were out of the Zodiac
story, as they deserted their group during the last two missions (the Air Force One and CLAMP School Invasion story arcs of Book
2), and they'll be appearing here, as an ally, and as a mercenary. And expect someone that I'll be using here (an OC), and he'll be heavily
borrowed from a Tokusatsu series character. More on that later as the chapters come in place.
Whoops, I almost forgot, I'll list down several Detective School Q fanfics that I've written in an order that highlights the DSQ heroes'
adventure, and when the story first appeared:
The Shower of Love (M)
- My first "serious" DSQ lemon fic. This is where Kyuu and Megumi became an official couple
The Haunted Circus (see Ghost Stories) (T)
- This fic is actually on the Ghost Stories entry. Class Q just got embroiled into this supernatural case, and decided to join the Ghosts at
School gang in investigating this supernatural case. In case you didn't noticed, Ghosts at School was given the title of Ghost Stories
when it was aired in the US. Believe me, you don't want to see that anime being dubbed by ADV.
Note that this was my first-ever crossover fic, and the first-ever anime team-up.
The Haunted Circus: To The Theme Park (T)
- I decided to expand on the story by alternating chapters between Ghost Stories and DSQ to give DSQ fans a taste of my crossover fic,
and that characters from both anime series will play a big role.
Also note that characters from Yu Yu Hakusho, The Batman (the current cartoon series that features Ellen Yin), and Justice League
Unlimited are there for added support.
The Fetus Of God (T)
- My first multi-titled crossover fic, and the continuation of the Haunted Circus / To The Theme Park fics.
It involves Digimon, Get Backers, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Read or Die, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Darkstalkers. Ther cast of
Justice League Unlimited also makes an appearance. Click on my pen name to find those fics.
Meanwhile, for me, the fic I made was sort of a 50-50 case. While I got a few, good reviews, I later realized that I made some few
loopholes, and some readers pointed out that some stories were confusing when they wondered how the characters met. And instead of
re-writing the whole fic, I decided to leave it to the readers on handing down their verdict on this fic.
The Big Easy (M)
- My second DSQ lemon fic. This time it's between Kyuu and Yukihira, who are tracking down an elusive drug dealer. Not connected to
any of my current DSQ fics. Think of it as an alternate universe fic.
Koudoutai: The New Enemy (T)
- That's were the whole Zodiac thing started, and there you'll get to know the
new enemy. And this fic was inspired by:
- Rhapsoding Riyoko's fic, Pluto Returns.
- And this (the Zodiac) was based on a Marvel Comics villain group from the
1970's, the Zodiac. They were the opponents of the Avengers and the
West Coast Avengers. (I bought a rare, 1980's comics called The Official
handbook of the Marvel Universe Deluxe Edition, and The Official
handbook of the Marvel Universe Deluxe Edition: Book Of the Dead.)
- Kamen Rider Ryuki
One of my favorite Tokusatsu and Mask Rider TV series. That's were I
based the Zodiac characters, and their weapons. Their Battle Robots were
slightly taken from the anime Daigunder.
- Since Rhapsoding Riyoko's fic, Pluto Returns, stated that Pluto was defeated, I
felt that if I make a fic highlighting Pluto as the main villains, it might cause
confusion among readers, and that I believed that Pluto's popularity has waned.
Hence, I decided to create a new group of villains, a group that would push DDS
to its very limit.
And since this group I created are very dangerous, and very powerful, I decided to
bring in the cast of Digimon Adventure 02 to even the level of wits and strength,
and decided to put them in as members of Class C.
After that fic, it spawned several Side Story fics, in which the villains from DSQ spread
to various anime series, and came into conflict with several heroes of their particular
series (note that, again, some of the fic below have several references to Kamen Rider
Ryuki):
1) Digimon: Fallen Angel (T)
- My first side story fic, and my 2nd Digimon fic. In Koudoutai: The New Enemy,
Mimi prevented Sasoriza (aka Scorpio), a member of the Zodiac from killing Principal
Dan, and as a result, she was marked for death for her interference.
Note that Otomeza (aka Virgo) made her debut here, and there I put several
references to Kamen Rider Ryuki (one from Kamen Rider Ryuki: Episode Final,
and the other is Kamen Rider Ryuki:13 Riders Special).
2) Read Or Die: The Book Of Immortality (T)- The Zodiac goes to Scotland, and Yumiko Readman and the Paper Sisters are
joined by the Digimon crew in stopping the Zodiac. There the battle spread onto
several states in Scotland.
- This is where Iteza (aka Sagittarius) makes his first (and last) appearance.
3) CLAMP School: CLAMP School meets Dan Detective School (T)
- My 4th side story fic, and my first ever CLAMP School fic. Inspired from the
CLAMP School fic "Class Q in CLAMP School" by Kira Stone.
In Koudoutai: The New Enemy, DDS was demolished, and Principal Dan is looking for a
school to accommodate the DDS students while DDS is undergoing reconstruction. There
Principal Dan was contacted by CLAMP School, and met with the head of CLAMP
School to discuss the possible joint partnership between the two schools.
- Two of the unseen Zodiac members, Yagiza (aka Capricorn) and Futagoza (aka
Gemini) make their appearance here.
4) Detective School Q: My Brother's Keeper (T)
- Here Principal Dan tells his students about his younger brother about how and
why they had a falling out during their younger years.
And there you'll get to see how Sasoriza (aka Scorpio) was born, and how he joined
the Zodiac.
5) Detective School Q: Stay Alive (T)- Inspired and slightly based on the US movie, Stay Alive. The Zodiac are back,
but only this time, one of their members, Ohitsujiza (Aries), pulls off a scheme to
discredit Kazuma Narusawa, to pin the blame on him as gamers were killed in the same
fashion as their players died on the game they were playing.
My first Ryu x Megumi pairing (this is strictly a team-up pairing, so sorry to
those who were hoping for a romance)
- Some of the Digimon cast makes a cameo appearance here.
And there you have it. Sorry if the real chapter 1 is not yet uploaded. Just providing you
with a teaser. But I'll get to that as I'll be uploading it on the next chapter. But don't
expect it to be fast. I just written the first three chapters. And this fic may, or may not,
exceed the chapters that I've written on the second Koudoutai fic.
For those who like Ghosts at School fics, see Ghosts Stories category. I've written at
least 7 of them (5 are T-Rated, and 2 are M-Rated). Hope you like them.
Now that my intro is done, I'll be seeing you on Chapter 2.
