I do not own the Teen Titans or The Justice League Unlimited franchises. They are owned by their respective owners and creators, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Entertainment.

Kamen Rider Magnus

Author: Toku Warrior

Once, long ago, an ancient demon-like alien race set out to conquer the universe.

These creatures were known as…the Majin. A race of draconic demon-aliens.

Within a centuries' time, they held dominion over most of the known universe.

Their power was great, their might was feared and their magic knew no bounds.

Then, one day, a being clad in a type of strange suit appeared before them.

This being fought them…and nearly won. His power and might were greater.

His magic was stronger and he was smarter. But there was a flaw in his design.

The Majin, in a last ditch effort, used a dark spell to corrupt the warriors soul.

Rejecting his humanity, the warrior fell into sin and thus lost his power of light.

The source of his power, the MagnaDriver, went on to his heir.

The Driver too though was cursed. And so, for over 6,000 years, all of the original

Warriors' descendants became corrupted. 10 so far have fallen but 2 were able

To escape by denying the power after a time. 12 have served and now the Majin return.

Now the fight falls on the shoulders of the 13th warrior. Will he too fall into sin like his ancestors?

This is the story of one of the most powerful Riders to have ever lived. This is the story…of Magnus.

Oh, the joyous feeling of Valentines Day. Love is in the air and nothing is better than spending the day with your one true love. Of course, this day is not just celebrated by normal people alone. Super heroes and super villains also share in this day of peace and love. That is, of they have a special someone to share it with. The day so far had been a peaceful one. Not many crimes had happened so most of the heroes of Earth took the day off to spend time with their loved ones. Our story for now shall focus on a certain group of heroes, the Teen Titans. But before we can begin the story in the present, let us look back to the city of Townsville about two weeks prior, shall we.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

(2 weeks ago)

It was a dark night and most of the people were asleep. That is, except for those who make a living of doing their work late at night. Within the First National Bank of Townsville, a trio of robbers were busy at work, stealing whatever they could carry. One of the robbers, a woman, used her magic powers to levitate all of the jewelry and lower the items into a sack. She wore a violet robe that left her shoulders bare. She had long violet hair and light purple eyes. Another robber, who too was a woman, walked over to her to see what was left.

"Yo, Tala, you almost done. Atomic Skull and I just finished loading the cash into the truck and we're ready to roll." The woman asked. She had light blue skin and ice-like hair. Her lower body from her collarbone down was covered in a dark blue suit which also, like Tala, left her shoulders bare.

"Niet. I just need another moment. You and Atomic keep an eye out for the Titans." As if he was called, Atomic Skull walked over to also see what was taking so long.

"Yo, Tala, what did the boss ask you to get anyway?"

"The master asked me to retrieve a special amulet that can amplify his powers ten fold. It's being held here at this bank so I was asked to…oh how do you say…relieve them of it." Tala responded. After finishing her response, Tala found what she was looking for and levitated it over to herself. It was a moderate sized ruby encased in a golden trim with a diamond-link chain. "Come to mama."

Just as Tala was about to drop the amulet in her hand a strange looking card came flying through the air and ended up becoming stuck in the other woman's sternum. Both Tala and Atomic Skull looked at her and then at the card. The woman also looked at the card and started to reach for it.

"Huh? What the hell is thiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" The card sent a surge of power through her body which caused her to drop to the floor. It then dislodged from her chest, falling to the ground and showing an image on it of that which was the woman.

"Frost! Are you…aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Atomic Skull and Tala both screamed as they too were stuck with a card that, once it surged them with an energy wave, fell to the ground with their images depicted on them.

The three cards then flew off the ground and back into the air, heading towards the rafters and into the armored hand of a being within the shadows. Nothing of the being could be seen except for a pair of glowing green eyes. The being then flicked a finger in the air in the direction of the silent alarm and set it off with a bolt of light blue energy. The being then left without a trace so as to leave the three super villains for the cops.

Opening Theme – "New Divide" (artist: Linkin Park)

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

(Present day)

A young woman, no older than eighteen, walked into a café wearing a pair of black denim jeans, black sandals and a black blouse with twist tied shoulder edges. Her skin was a shiny alabaster grey and atop hear brow was a small chakra. Her hair was long, just below her shoulders and raven colored. The café which she entered was her usual hangout when she wasn't working. It was a normal gothic café that had a few dim lights and a stage with a stool on it for poetry reading. Behind the curtain of the stage was some audio equipment for those who wished to share their depressed feeling in the form of music.

As the girl came in a waitress dress up in a black maid outfit came up to her and greeted her with a smile. "Well hey Rae. Haven't seen you around for awhile."

"Yeah, I've been a little busy with work lately."

"S'ok. So, your usual table and your glass of tea?"

"Please, if you wouldn't mind. Oh Cindy, a book of Edgar Allen Poe too if it's not any trouble."

"Sure." With that, Cindy led her over to her usual table to be shocked at the sight of a person already sitting there, reading a book while flipping a strange card back and forth within his right hand. "Uh-oh. Looks like someone was already seated there. Would you like a different table Rachel?" As if knowing that he was being starred at, the young man looked up to see the sight of a beautiful woman before him.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Were you sitting here before I got in?" the young man asked.

"No, not today. That's just my usual seat for when I come in." Rachel replied.

"I'm sorry, I can move if you'd prefer to have your table to yourself." The young man offered. Rachel looked around and noticed that all of the other good tables were either taken or being watched upon by any girl looking for a good date from a handsome guy.

"It's ok. You mind sharing?" she asked.

"Sure." He replied as he moved his stuff sitting next to him in the seat of the booth and placing his belongings on the ground next to his feet. "There we go."

"Thanks."

"No problem." Cindy then came up to the table to see if Rachel needed anything else but Rachel just waved her off, letting her know that she just wanted her tea and poetry book. "I'm Alex, Alexander Riker. And you are?"

"Rachel, Rachel Roth. Nice to meet you Alexander."

"Please, just Alex will do." He was about to start a small conversation when the café spotlight cam on as the rest of the lights dimmed, causing everyone to focus on the figure of a young woman sitting on the stool. She began to recite a poem which had a dark tone to it but didn't seem to scare the patrons. (Hey, I don't know any dark or gloomy poems so just think of any you know and use 'em here.)

Rachel and Alex just listened to the girl pour out her feelings and once she was done almost everyone was either giving her a quiet applause of were snapping their fingers in appreciation. Alex just smiled and nodded while Rachel only slightly smiled. As the girl left and another one got up to speak her mind Cindy returned to the table with Rachel's tea and boo of poetry. Catching the scent of the tea, Alex immediately knew what kind it was.

"I see, herbal tea with a dash of honey. A nice choice my dear Rachel." Alex commented. Rachel looked at him with a monotone expression but she was inwardly surprised that he could tell what kind of tea it was.

"You know your tea, don't you" she asked him. Alex let a small smile cross his face and just looked her in the eyes.

"It's a small dream of mine to try every kind of tea there is on Earth at least once before my time comes and I am to meet the boat man. I figure a journey down the river Styx will be a long one so a nice conversation topic would be good."

"You're not sick are you?"

"Not at all. I just wish to be prepared. You never know when your time will come and the spirit of death comes to court you for your final and eternal journey." Rachel let a smile cross her soft lips. She liked his way with words.

"Interesting. So, do you find everything in life pointless or is there a meaning to what happens to one self on the journey that we call life?"

As they talked no one noticed a small round yellow device with a black circle on it with a white T in the center starting to vibrate in her purse. Rachel had turned the sound of when she left to come to the café so not even she realized it was going off.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

"Damn, no answer. She must have it on vibrate." Robin muttered under his breathe. "Remind me to have that feature removed from the T-COM's when this is over." The Teen Titans, a group of young super heroes that work alongside the Justice League, was currently fighting a strange monster that had started attacking the lower East side district of Townsville. It had already been five minutes into the battle and the Titans were already tired.

Cyborg had already called the Justice League for assistance and only Dr. Fate, Wonder Woman, the Flash and the Green Lantern had come to back them up. Robin had tried calling Raven for a few minutes and he still didn't get through to her.

"Yo Rob, we got trouble man! This thing ain't stoppin'!" Cyborg screamed from behind a wrecked semi truck. Robin turned to his cybernetic friend and then looked at the monster slowly approaching them.

The creature was a god six or seven feet tall and looked like a humanoid dragon. It wore red armor over it shoulders, forearms and lower legs while it had a lather belt fitted around its waist. Its body was covered in scales and black in color and it had spikes protruding forward from the top of its wrists. It fingers and toes ended in razor sharp claws. It had a huge thick tail swaying to and fro from it rear and its head was shaped like that of a dragon. It mouth was filled to the brim with razor sharp teeth. Hanging around its huge neck was a pendant with a sapphire jewel in the center.

"By the heavens, this creature doesn't seem to have any Earthly limits." Dr. Fate proclaimed. As the creature stood above Cyborg Wonder Woman flew in with Starfire by her side, the two powerhouse diva's both delivering powerful left and right hooks to the monsters' jaw, sending it flying into a parked bus.

"Gee, what was your first clue?" Cyborg quipped.

"Dudes, it's getting back up!" Beast Boy yelled as he morphed into a Cheetah and ran from the creature as it jumped out from the crushed bus and came landing in the spot where Beast Boy had just been standing. "Man, where's Raven when ya need her?!"

"She's probably enjoying her time out on the town." Terra said as she floated down on a huge bolder next to her shape shifting boyfriend. "Star, heads up!" Terra shouted. Starfire looked behind her to notice a second monster which looked like the first one bringing down an axe-like weapon upon her. Starfire let loose a blast of her eye beams, sending the creature right into a pizzeria.

:Thank you friend Terra." The second monster quickly recovered and came walking out of the damaged building. It looked identical to the other monster but it was silver in color instead of black. "Just what manner of being is this…this monster?"

"A good question my dear Koriand'r. And I believe my wife will have the answer soon enough. I sent her to go and look up these creatures from the mystic encyclopedia at home while J'onn and Mr. Terrific are looking through the alien database back at the WatchTower." The two monsters quickly regrouped and then charged at Dr. Fate with blinding speed. The mystic sorcerer quickly conjured up a spell which created a powerful shield around him, protecting him from their onslaught as they began to pummel his shield with their fists and weapons. 'Dear lord that was a close one. These monsters are truly fast given their enormous size.'

'Man, why won't Raven answer her T-COM?!' Robin thought as he threw some of his freezing disks at the draconic monsters so as to try and lure them away from Dr. Fate.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Rachel was laughing slightly out loud at a funny joke that Alex had just told her and then noticed that her powers were causing some of the empty chairs and a few lights to be covered in her dark energy and stated shaking violently. Calming down, she eased herself back into her neutral mood which made Alex look at her inquisitively.

"What, do I have something on my face?" Rachel asked.

"No, it's nothing really. I just noticed that you had a really unique power. It seems to be tied into your emotional state of mind." Rachel sank into her chair a little bit as she developed a saddened look on her face. "Is something the matter my dear?"

"I…I can't believe I did that. I always do my best to keep my powers under control."

"Why? Is there something wrong with your powers?"

"Well, you were right. They are tied into my emotional state of mind. If my emotions get out of control then my powers could cause serious and possibly fatal damage to everyone and everything around me. Especially those close to me." She explained. She looked up at Alex and noticed that he wasn't the least bit shocked by her explanation. "You don't seem too surprised by that answer."

"I'm not. Trust me, I've seen worse things." He just smiled softly. 'What is it about her that makes me so soft in nature? I'm supposed to be a fighter and yet here I am having a…nice conversation with a total stranger.'

Raven just starred right back at him with a small look of unsettling confusion in her eyes, 'I don't get it. I barely know this guy and I'm already explaining one of my biggest secrets to him.' Alex and Rachel just continued to stare at one another until Alex looked down at her purse and noticed something flashing. More like a blinking red light.

"Hey, your purse is blinking." Alex pointed out. Rachel looked down and picked up the yellow device from her purse.

"Greeeeeaaaaaat. I guess my day off is over." She flipped it open, allowing the small display screen inside to come on. "Alex, I'm sorry but I may have to cut this conversation short."

"It's ok. If you have somewhere you need to be then I don't mind." Alex was also about to say he had to go as he was starting to hear a repeating sound of a small revving noise in his ear. The screen on Rachel's T-COM flickered with static for a second and then a picture of a young man with slicked back black hair and a black mask over his eyes appeared.

"Raven here, what's wrong Robin?" Alex looked at her with a look of slight shock. The girl he had been talking to was talking to Robin of the Teen Titans and she just referred to herself as Raven.

"Raven, where the hell are you?! I've been trying to contact for nearly ten minutes now!" Robin shouted over the T-COM.

"Easy bird boy. I was busy."

"Well drop what you're doing and head down to the lower East side district ASAP. We've got a near Omega level Titan situation here." Rachel just looked up at Alex and he just nodded.

"Understood. Tell me everything once I get there. Raven out." She closed the T-COM and returned it to her purse. She then pulled out her Justice League credit card and was preparing to pay for her tea when Alex stopped her. "What is it?"

"Let me pay for this one. I couldn't call myself a gentleman if I let a beautiful lady pay for the meal now could I?" Rachel just looked at him and her cheeks grew a small pinkish hue. Alex just smiled as she returned the card to her purse and then took out a pen and paper. "What's that for?"

"My cell number. Give me a call sometime whenever you're in town. We can have another talk here at the café." Rachel told him as she scribbled her number down on the piece of paper. She then handed the paper over to him and then left. As she got to the door she turned around and waved him goodbye. "See ya around Alex." She gave him a small wink and flew off.

Alex starred at the door and then walked over to the counter and paid for their drinks. After saying goodbye to Cindy he then went to the door and left the café. Walking around the corner he went into the alleyway and came up to a motorcycle covered in a mystic veil, hiding it from the eyes of those that would try and take it. 'So, it looks like they've finally returned.' He let his mind wander to events from his past. After a moment down memory lane he then removed the veil and mounted the bike.

The bike was a deep crimson color with silver trim along the sides and a sharp looking M on the side of the engine case. The dash board of the bike was slightly futuristic in appearance and a strange slot was located just below the video screen. 'Mother and Grandfather warned me that they would be back. Now it's time to finish what the First started six millennia ago.' With that Alex placed the key in the ignition and started the bike.

"Metal Magna…online." the bike announced in a male computerized voice. Alex revved the engine a few times and then drove off out of the alleyway and towards the location that Raven would be heading towards.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

As Raven flew towards the location of the scene she covered herself in her dark energy. After a few seconds had passed the energy left her body, which was now covered in her traditional black leotard, booties and blue cloak. Once she got to the scene she nearly doubled back at the sight of the battle.

Robin was down on the ground with Cyborg in front of him using a car as a shield. Starfire was kneeling next to the caped crime fighter, tending to his broken right arm. Beast Boy and Terra had teamed up with the Flash to try and distract the two monsters while Wonder Woman and Green Lantern help the last of the citizen's escape. Raven looked over and saw Dr. Fate standing next to his wife who had arrived a moment before with J'onn J'onzz. They were looking through a book on alien monsters. Robin, looking up, noticed the half-demon and called out.

"Raven, where in God's name have you been?!" Robin demanded.

"I told you, I was busy. I'm allowed to have a life ya know." She retorted.

"Listen, we have a job to protect the people. We aren't allowed to ha—" Robin went on until Starfire placed a finger on his lips to shush him.

"Robin, please stop yelling at friend Raven." Turning towards said person. "Friend, it is ok to go out and have a life but you must also remember that it is our duty to protect the lives of these people as well."

"Like I need to be reminded of that. But even we need to be able to relax once in awhile…out of uniform." She then turned her attention towards the two monsters. It was the two of them that had ruined her day. She had made a new friend that wasn't a Titan, villain or a JLU member and those two had ruined it for her. She then remembered how she gave Alex that strange wink before she left. 'Why did I do that anyway?' Looking at the monsters with hate and anger, 'I'll think about that later. Right now I need to stop these monsters.'

Raven then flew off in the monsters' direction. All the while a certain someone was watching the battle from behind a van, sitting on a certain crimson red motorcycle. The Black monster looked up when it felt the air pressure around it warp for an instant. What it saw was a huge boulder covered in black energy dropping on top of it. It jumped out of the way, allowing the boulder to fall right in front of the Flash, causing the speedster to stop dead in his tracks. Both he and the two Titans, Terra and Beast Boy, turned to see Raven floating in the air, with a very angry look in her eyes.

"Raven, 'bout time ya made it." Terra quipped.

"Pipe it Blondie! I'm not in the mood!" Raven warned her as the red monster charged at her with incredible speed. This monster was fast, even faster than what she was normally able to keep up with. The monster swung at her with its right hand, claws extended. Raven erected a shield of dark energy to deflect the attack but wore a look of shock and utter horror on her face when the creatures claws slashed through like a hot knife through butter.

The attack hit home as its claws slashed at her leotard, creating four fresh wounds on her chest, spilling her blood all over the place. Alex looked on in shock from his hiding place and then noticed that the metal teen known as Cyborg was coming to her aid.

"Hang on Rae, I'm comin'!" Cyborg shouted as he fired his blaster at the monster. The blast slammed into its face, sending it sprawling across the pavement before it quickly righted itself and glared at the metal teen with hate. "Ah, crap." WHAM! The black monster had gotten back into the fray and delivered a powerful left hook to Cyborg's face, sending him right into Raven, knocking them both down.

Dr. Fate and J'onn were looking through the book as fast as they could but neither of them could find the answer they were looking for as to what kind of creatures these monsters were. Alex looked over, seeing Fate getting frustrated and then back at Raven who was slowly getting up, helping Cyborg in the process. Clenching his fists he made his decision.

"I guess there's no other choice. Fate's gonna kill me when he finds out I'm here using this cursed thing." He raised his right hand up near his face and snapped his finger. In a swirl of red and silver energy, a strange device appeared before his waist which then shot out a black leather strap, fastening itself to his waist.

The strange object was white in color and rectangular with curved edges. It had a silver edged diamond in the center of it with said diamond having a red screen in its center. On the side facing his left the object, which was know the buckle of his new belt, had a golden butt with three green gems on it. On the right side of the buckle was a single silver handle with two red gems embedded on a black track. The white buckle also had a black track on its right side, with a single blue gem embedded on it. Located on the right side of Alex's new belt was a crimson red case with a black antenna.

Placing his left hand on the golden end of the buckle and his right on the handle, he tugged the handle while pushing down on the golden edge, causing the white buckle to rotate one quarter clockwise. He then pulled the front facing side of the case on his right forward until it was opened at a 90 degree angle. Inside was a set of cards. He grabbed one and pulled it out, the case making a revving sound similar to the sound he was hearing earlier. He looked at the card which said ADVENTAION on the top of it. The image was that of a being wearing a red helmet with black sides and a thin black line running up the middle. There were green eyes and two silver vents on the top of the helmet outline in gold trim. In a black bar below the figure was a name printed in white.

"Well, here we go. Henshin!" Alex shouted while he slid the card into the opened end of the buckle.

"Adventation." The buckle announced in the same voice as the Metal Magna. Alex then swung his right hand over the handle, pushing it closed, while lifting his left hand up against the golden edge of the buckle. "Magnus!"

Four silver energy panels appeared out of thin air, one on each side, in front of him and behind him. The two on his sides enveloped his body, passing over him. Once they passed over him his body was now covered in a black leather body suit with two silver energy streams running up and down his chest and legs. On the inner arm area of his suit it was silver in color. The other two silver panels then passed over his body. Once they disappeared the rest of his suit was covered in armor.

His hands and feet developed armor coverings. His feet each had a single green orb on them while the top of his hand armor padding had the same silver vents with gold trim that his helmet had and a green orb as well. His lower legs and forearms were covered in armor that also had silver vents with gold trim. The forearm armor was black on the outer area and red on the inner area, his lower leg armor in a vice-versa coloring. His wrists and ankles were covered in silver guards and the leg and arm armor each had a silver top that extended into pointy jutting edges. His knee pads were red circles with a black line center. His thighs also had armor padding, red in color and each with a silver vent trimmed in gold. They also had two black spaces on them as well.

His upper arms also had a red colored armor padding which was half hidden under his shoulder armor. His shoulder armor was red and rounded with silver trim that connected with a long extending spike edge on either side with a black center. His chest plate was mostly black in color with the front of it crimson red. The front had two silver vents with gold trim going from the bottom up to his pectoral area. The collar area had a curving silver vent with gold trim looping around. This made it look like an M on his chest.

Then a red energy rectangle appeared in front of his head and separated into three pieces before slamming into his helmet, fusing with it. His eye pieces flashed green. The helmet had a silver trimmed jaw line while the red pieces turned a black color. The one in the center split in two, leaving an open area on his forehead. The top half of that line extended up like a small spike. The other two pieces became the black sidings of the helmet and also jutted upwards as if they were spikes. The two silver vents on his helmet and the rest of the vents on his armor released pressurized energy out of his body, stabilizing and finishing his transformation process. Where Alex Riker once stood was now the being known as Kamen Rider Magnus.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Raven and Cyborg were busy trying to dodge all of the attacks that the two monsters were throwing at them while Terra kept using her geokinetic powers to hurl large boulders at the beasts. Wonder Woman and Green Lantern had finished evacuations and were also lending a hand in the fight. Robin was unable to help with his current condition and Starfire was too busy trying to keep him out of the battle.

The Flash ran circles around the monsters, hoping to confuse them, while Beast Boy changed into a Gorilla and leapt at the black monster. Wrapping his powerful arms around its neck while hanging on to its backside, Beast Boy tried to make the creature submit. But the monster had other ideas as it began bucking around like a wild stallion, trying to throw Beast Boy off.

"Teeerrrrraaaaa…ssstttttooooopppp ttthhhhiiiiiiissssss…cccrrraaaazzzzyyyy tthhiiinnnnnggg!" Beast Boy shouted which Terra tried to oblige to but found herself busy with the red monster. Both she and Wonder Woman were dodging claw swipes to their faces while Cyborg ran at it and delivered a fury of punches to its gut. These attacks did little to phase it though as the red monster sent Cyborg flying into a pickup truck with a powerful thrust kick.

"You ok Cy?!" Flash asked who then found himself in trouble as the black monster had finally flung Beat Boy off of itself and right into the Flash, slamming them both into the pavement. Beast Boy got up in a sitting position, having reverted back to his human form, and was shaking the images of chibi Terra's flying around his head away. He looked down and saw the Flash out like a light.

"This is so not good." Beast Boy then got back up and grabbed the Flash's hand, pulling him a safe distance away from the fight. Terra saw Beast Boy and went to give him a hand as the Green Lantern came in to take her place in the fight. The black monster then roared in an alien language and chanted what seemed like a magic spell. Dr. Fate caught a few syllables of the spell and was horrified by what he could make out.

"Oh no! It can't be!" Dr. Fate yelled as he understood what the monster was about to do. He was about to go out to try his own luck at stopping the monster when his wife grabbed him by the arm, stopping him. "Why do you stop me Inza?"

"Look dear, over there." Inza pointed over to the area behind them and both Dr. Fate and J'onn looked to where she was pointing to see a being clad in black and red armor with a helmet set with green eyes.

"By the soul of Nabu…it can't be." Dr. Fate exclaimed.

"You know that person?" J'onn inquired.

"I think so. Maybe not the user but the armor I do know." Dr. Fate watched as the armored warrior tugged at the handle on the buckle of its belt and then opened the case on its right side, removing a card. "So it is true…Magnus has returned."

Magnus walked over to the battle and then stopped as Wonder Woman was thrown through the air and into a boulder right next to him. Kneeling down he offered her a hand. Wonder Woman shook her head and then noticed the armored hand of a person she'd never seen before extending before her. Taking the hand he helped her up.

"Who are you?" she asked incredulously.

"Me? I'm just a passing-through super hero. Remember that." He said while tapping her on her nose. Magnus then approached the two monsters with Wonder Woman looking on at him.

"He must be out of his mind."

Robin and Starfire both looked on as the armored being made its way towards the two monsters. The monsters, which were fighting the other Titans and Green Lantern, turned and noticed the being coming towards them.

"You…so a new user has been chosen?" the black monster asked.

"Yep." He simply replied.

"Well then…death to the 13th Magnus!" the red monster roared as it charged at Magnus. Magnus didn't even bother to budge as the Titans and remaining JLU members watched on. He slid the drawn card into the Magnadriver, preparing his attack.

"AdventStrike." The Magnadriver announced. He then closed the driver, calling upon the power of the card. "Soutenjuu!" Out of thin air a black and silver gun with red trim appeared in his right hand.

Magnus then dodge to his right as the red monster brought down its clawed hand and then pulled the trigger on the Soutenjuu, firing a blast of blue and red energy bullets into its face. Unlike the attempts of the other heroes present, the attacks that Magnus was dealing were actually causing the monster to raise its arms up in front of its head, trying to defend itself.

"Damn you Magnus! How dare you interfere with our plans!" the red monster shouted.

"Oh please, like I'd let you Majin's do whatever you want." Magnus pulled the trigger again and pelted the monster, now known as a Majin, with more energy bullets. "It's my duty to take your kind down."

"Curse you! You're supposed to end all existence, not protect it!"

(Insert Song – "Ride the Wind": KR Decade theme)

"That's the destiny of the First…not me!" Magnus stopped firing and tossed the Soutenjuu away, allowing it to return to wherever it came from. He then opened the Magnadriver once more before opening the MagnaDivider, taking out another card. "If I remember correctly you guys hate extreme cold." He then slid the card into the Magnadriver, calling upon another power.

"AdventForm." He then closed the Magnadriver, activating the card. "Killer Frost!"

The red screen within the silver edged diamond on the Magnadriver shot out an energy hologram of a glowing image of the villainess, Killer Frost. The image then slammed into the form of Magnus, granting him her power. The silver area of his arms and the outer area of his waist and legs turned a cobalt blue color while the silver vents on his armor opened up and emitted a blue energy aura. His green eye pieces also shifted into a cobalt blue color.

"Did that belt of his just say Killer Frost?" Green Lantern asked.

"Yeah, it did. And it even projected an image of her which then flew into his body." Cyborg added.

From the other side of the battlefield, Dr. Fate, Inza and J'onn J'onzz watched and were amazed that Magnus was able to use the power of a super villain. "Did you know he could do that?" J'onn asked Dr. Fate.

"I know that the Magnus System can copy and replicate the abilities of any being its cards embed themselves in. I think this Magnus may have encountered Killer Frost at one time and probably acquired her powers for his own uses."

"Perhaps he wishes to use her powers of evil for the purpose of doing some good." Inza added.

"Maybe my love, we'll just have to wait and see." With that, Dr. Fate and the others watched as Magnus charged at the two Majin's, his fists covered in an icy mist.

The red Majin swung at Magnus with its left hand which Magnus just knocked aside with his own right fist. As the monster was about to attack with its other hand it then started to roar in pain. It brought its left hand up to its face and noticed that it was incased in ice. Magnus, seizing the opportunity of the Majin's distraction, delivered a powerful side kick into its stomach, sending it flying into a truck about 500 feet away. The black Majin, angry at seeing its comrade being injured, charged at Magnus with unmatched ferocity.

"Die you bastard!" the black Majin roared. Magnus just sighed and tugged on the handle of the Magnadriver and then opened up the MagnaDivider to remove a card. The Majin stopped dead in its tracks as Magnus raised the card and showed the image to the monster.

"How about a little sword play?" Magnus asked in a musing tone as he slipped the card into the Magnadriver before closing it.

"AdventStrike…Ice Lancer!" An icy cloud formed in his right hand which then solidified into a cobalt blue sword lance. (Think of the sword that KR Knight summons with his Sword Vent). The sword had a long blue handle while its blade was in the shape of a lance. It had a gold pattern traveling up both sides of the blade and a red gem near the hilt.

Magnus swung the sword and rested it upon his right shoulder while motioning for the Majin to attack him with his left hand. "It's your move tough guy." Magnus said as he goaded the monster to attack him. The Majin didn't care what kind of powers this Magnus had for it feared nothing. It charged him in a blind rage attacked with a flurry of left and right hooks. Magnus dodged to the right and then to the left before ducking under a punch aimed for his head and then brought himself up, ramming the top of his head into the jaw of the Majin in the form of a vicious head butt.

The monster staggered back a few feet while Magnus began focusing his ice powers into the Ice Lancer. The weapon began to glow an eerie blue hue and then, as the monster regained its composure, Magnus rushed forward in a dash and impaled the monster with the sword. The black Majin howled in agony as most of its body was frozen solid in an instant. Magnus withdrew the weapon and prepared to decapitate the monster when the red Majin jumped up and came down behind the Rider, backhanding him away from its comrade.

"I will not permit you to kill any one of our kind accursed being!" the red Majin exclaimed. Raven and Wonder Woman were standing side by side and were wondering what the Majin meant with those words.

"Accursed being? Why did that thing call him that?" Wonder Woman asked.

"I'm not sure. But from how I can see Dr. Fate and Inza are reacting to him, they may know something about this guy." Raven mentioned as she motioned over to the magical couple.

"Possibly…but for now let's just continue to observe him some more and see what he can really do."

The two heroines returned their gaze back to the battle to see the red Majin use its powerful tail to knock the Ice Lancer out of Magnus's hands. It then opened up its mouth and formed an energy ball, firing a blast of pure raw energy at the Rider. Magnus jumped up and landed on a fallen piece of a balcony. He brought his hands together and, with the two silver vents on the top part of his hand armor, fired a super cold ice beam at the monster. The Majin jumped but soon found itself stuck to the ground in mid air as its legs were frozen in the blast. Magnus then jumped back down to the ground and fired another ice beam, knocking the red Majin into the black one, freezing them together. Only their heads remained unfrozen.

"D-d-d-d-damn y-y-you…M-M-M-M-Magn-n-n-nusssss!"

"Yeah, yeah, like I haven't heard that one before." He then tugged on the handle of the Magnadriver again before opening up the MagnaDivider, removing a card with a blue trimmed edge. On its face were the letters KF colored in blue. On the top of the card were the letters FAS. Magnus slid the card into the Magnadriver and then looked at the Majin one last time. "Say sayonara fellas." Magnus said while waving them goodbye.

"Final AdventStrike." Magnus then closed the Magnadriver to activate the card. "Ki-Ki-Ki-Killer Frost!" Magnus then took a running start and then jumped up in the air. The Magnadriver shot out five crimson colored energy cards that resembled the one he just inserted into the Magnadriver a second earlier. Four of them took their place between him and the two Majin's while the fifth appeared behind the monsters, adding an extra hold on them, keeping them grounded.

As Magnus dropped down through the other four energy cards his body was covered in an icy shard, like an ice dagger. With each card his passed through he gained more power and more momentum. His right leg was extended out while he had his left one tucked in, performing a flying drop kick. His kick made contact with the two Majin and he went right through them. The two monsters screamed in agony as Magnus then reappeared behind them, landing in a crouching position.

The ice containing the two monsters shattered as the two Majin's bodies exploded. Magnus turned back towards the smoke and flames and waited for something to happen. Everyone else watched as well and then they all noticed two small energy orbs floating away from the fire. Magnus, acting quickly, reached behind his back and removed a small device from the back of his belt.

He opened it up and flung his right arm out with the device gripped tightly in his hand. The device shot out a strange energy whip-like stream which caught the two orbs in the air and drew them back into the device. Magnus then closed the lid and returned the object back to the holster on the back of his belt.

(End song – "Ride the Wind")

Both the Magnadriver and MagnaDivider opened up on their own. The Magnadriver then shot out the three cards used for Magnus's Killer Frost form, returning them to the MagnaDivider. The two objects then closed by them, reverting Magnus back to his original color scheme. He looked around himself and noticed everyone looking at him. He then noticed a familiar figure wearing a full faceless helm walking towards him. Dr. Fate soon came to a stop, staring the Rider in the eyes.

"So…Magnus, you have returned after 10 years of dormancy. Would that be you Megumi…or is it you Edward?" Magnus just looked the wizard right in the eyes and sighed softly.

"Do I look like my mother or my psychotic older brother you tin head?" Magnus replied while playfully whacking Dr. Fate upside the head. Upon hearing the old nickname, Dr. Fate realized who he was talking to. But before the doctor could even say his name, Magnus gave him a clear warning. "Don't even think about it. I don't want anyone to know who I am."

"But why? What do you have to fear from them?" Inza asked as she approached the two of them, coming to a stop next to her husbands' side.

"Because, the Lantern Corp. knows the old back-story of the Magnadriver which means they'll think of me as a threat. That Green Lantern there may follow Oa's orders and try and eliminate me." He then looked over to Raven and sighed. "And that girl there has seen me in my human form. I don't want to hurt her anymore than she probably already has been in her lifetime."

"A great and noble sentiment but do you not think that the Justice League and the Titans might end up wishing you as an ally instead of as an enemy? You said yourself when fighting those two Majin's that it's the destiny of the First to end all creation…not yours." Dr. Fate pointed out.

"True, but I am also meant to take in the sins of the corrupted, allowing the souls of my ancestors to ascend to Heavens Gate. Thus I inherit their curse."

"Yes, but even one who is prophesized to destroy can still live a life of salvation and, when the time comes for destiny's call, fight their foretold fate. Raven knows this statement well."

Magnus looked at her and wondered what Fate meant. He then returned to look at him once more. "She has a cursed path she must walk?"

"Yes, she is the one who is destined to bring the great demon warlord Trigon into our realm so that he may destroy it. This has happened once before but she sent him back and restored the balance." Fate told him.

"Yes, but that doesn't mean it won't happen again." Magnus retorted.

"Indeed, but she fights that fate nonetheless. She is slowly starting to create a life…a future of her very own. She creating her own path and walking down it every day. You should try so too…my young friend. That or do what the last two users before you did and just throw away that power before it corrupts you."

Magnus thought about it for a second and turned around, walking back to his bike. "Maybe my friend. But for now, I'll do what I can to protect those that need protecting from the evil that is the Majin." Magnus waved him goodbye before mounting the Metal Magna and, revving the engine, riding off to wherever he resided. Dr. Fate, who was now being surrounded by the others, just watched the vanishing form of the Rider.

'Alex, you may not know it but you ARE the one who needs saving. If you stay the way you are now then you will become the destroyer…that is unless you open your heart and allow the love and friendship of those around you to take root into your soul, protecting it from the curse that is within your system.' Dr. Fate thought. He then saw the looks of the others and knew he would have some explaining to do. "My friends, if it ok with you, I wish to talk about today's' events and the armored warrior who just left back at the MetroTower."

The others nodded and they soon left. As they headed for the tower Raven looked back to where Magnus had been a moment before and then went back to following the others. She had no idea of the role she would soon play in the story of the newest Magnus.

Toku Warrior: This is the first chapter of Magnus. For those who may have not noticed it, the Magnus System is a play/mock of Kamen Rider Decade. Magnus will have weapons and abilities that will also tie into other series like Tenchi Muyo and Kamen Rider Ryuki, possibly even Kamen Rider Kiva. For now though this is just the start. I hope you all really enjoyed this story. Please let me know how you liked it.

Next Time: Magnus encounters Slade and Raven and Alex meet once again. Magnus also fights off another Majin invasion but this time he'll also have to contend with the Justice League too. Can Alex keep up his new budding friendship with Raven while Magnus becomes the enemy of those he wants to protect? Find out next time on Kamen Rider Magnus.
