Chapter 1: Gotham Knight
No-Men Base January 2nd 2011, 416 hours
Master Eubulon meditated in his quarters. It had been two years since the thirteen Kamen Riders killed his former general, Xaviax. Even though Xaviax was gone and the world of Ventara was safe, Xaviax's forces were still lurking about. As Eubulon meditated, he saw a vision and opened his eyes wide.
Eubulon was standing on Earth, but it was in ruins. Shattered Advent Decks were laid everywhere on the ground. As Master Eubulon walked around, his eyes started to widen. "It CAN'T be!" he exclaimed. He could see Xaviax standing on top of a tall skyscraper with a light-blue rider by his side. His helmet resembled a shark's head, and his left arm was a shark itself. Xaviax laughed as he looked down at the vented riders. Eubulon tensed up and fell to the ground. Just then, he heard a loud hum. Master Eubulon looked around to see fifty-six new Advent Decks. As he looked to the Decks, silhouettes of people wearing the belts formed and looked up to Xaviax. As a large shark appeared out of the sky, it shot bullets everywhere. A bright light engulfed the area, and Eubulon felt himself fading away until…
Master Eubulon woke up with a start and gasped. He started to sweat as he thought about the vision he had. Nolan, who was the closest rider in the base, walked towards the Advent Master. "Master Eubulon, are you alright?" Nolan asked. Eubulon held out his hand and sighed. "I don't know, Nolan. There's something going on here." He explained. Nolan, being the strongest Kamen Rider as Kamen Rider Wrath, raised an eyebrow. "Xaviax?" he asked. Master Eubulon nodded. "There could be a possibility of his return. Contact every other rider immediately." The Advent Master ordered. Nolan bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, Master Eubulon."
Gotham City 512 hours
Artemis Crock slept peacefully, thinking about the success she and the Team had on New Years when they saved the Justice League from Vandal Savage. As she slept, she heard a mysterious noise omitting. She groaned and got out of bed, getting dressed and looking around while rubbing her eyes. As she looked around, her eyes widened when she saw what looked like a box of cards getting spit out of her window. She walked over to her window and picked up the deck of cards. The front of the deck had a symbol of the Sagittarius Constellation on it. "What is this?" she asked herself. Just then, it started to glow green. Artemis jumped and gasped in surprise at this. When the glowing subsided, she could see something in her mirror. A covered motorcycle was entering a parking lot of some sort. Artemis wiped her eyes and looked again. There was nothing there. Artemis sighed and placed the deck into her pocket. She went back to sleep and fell into a deep slumber. Unbeknownst to her, the deck continued to glow.
Ventara 514 hours
Len, also known as Kamen Rider Wing Knight, emerged from his bike and immediately ducked. One of Xaviax's monsters swung at Len and knocked him aside. I've never seen this one before. Len thought to himself. "Time to take care of this." He stated. With that, he pulled out a card from his advent deck and slotted it into his rapier. TRICK VENT! The visor said. Four other copies of Wing Knight emerged as they all charged at the Shark-looking monster. As the real Len stabbed at the monster and sent it back. As it fell to the ground, the monster growled and blasted water at him, causing his twins to disappear. "I can't see!" Len exclaimed. The strange monster started to slash at Len with both of its swords, with Len fending for himself. With part of his sight clouded, the monster slashed him back the same way he did to it.
"You having trouble, Len?" a voice came. Len threw the monster aside and saw a man in green armor on top of a staircase. He looked like a general and had a gun in his hand. "Chance!" he yelled gratefully. "I've got this!" he added on. With that being said, Len took out a card with a left wing on it. Chance felt the gust of wind and was thrown back. SURVIVE MODE! "Remind me whenever you do Survive Mode." The Ventaran called out to Len. Len unsheathed his sword and placed it back into the Black Visor-Zwei. "Sorry, this will be quick." He apologized. Len took out another card and placed it into the visor. FINAL VENT! The visor said. Len jumped onto the Black Raider and trapped the monster. Chance took out a card as well and placed it into the Magna Visor. SHOOT VENT! Kamen Rider Torque now had a bazooka and aimed it at the monster. As soon as Wing Knight performed his Final Vent, Torque fired. The monster was engulfed in an explosion as Len jumped off of the Black Raider.
A man in purple armor with a snake-like motif appeared and looked up. "Chance, Len." He said to the two. Len got out of Survive Mode and looked to Kamen Rider Strike. Just then, a man in red armor with a grey breastplate and face grill walked up beside Wing Knight. "We missed everything?" Kit Taylor, also known as Kamen Rider Dragon Knight complained. Pryce sighed and looked up. "Forget about that." He told his fellow riders. The four looked up to see Kamen Rider Wrath. "Master Eubulon wants to see us all, now." He ordered. The four riders acknowledged and entered a glass window.
No-Men Base 532 hours
Kit, Len, Chance, Pryce, and Nolan entered the room as Kase, also known as Kamen Rider Siren, embraced Len. Kit looked around and saw Adam, the original Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, there as well. "Hey, Adam." Kit said to the Ventaran. When the ordeal with Xaviax was over, Adam had retired from being a Kamen Rider and Kit Taylor took his place. All the riders were confused as to why Master Eubulon called them all for a meeting. Master Eubulon looked to the riders and sighed. "We have a problem." He stated. Kit's eyes widened with surprise. "Xaviax again?" he asked. Eubulon nodded. "I had a vision of him, as well as his lieutenant during the war of Karsh." He explained. Len stepped up and removed his sunglasses. "Kamen Rider Depth Charge." He identified. Master Eubulon nodded. "There is something going on, and we need to get to the bottom of this." Kase proclaimed. As the riders nodded, Eubulon stepped up. "My vision also involved fifty-six other Kamen Riders." Hunt, Kamen Rider Axe, stepped up and furrowed his brow. "I thought there were only thirteen Advent Riders." He clarified. Eubulon nodded in disagreement. "The other decks are apparently scattered, and we need to retrieve them before Xaviax, Depth Charge, or anyone worse can get them." He explained to the riders.
Trent Moseley, agent of the No-Men, turned his chair around and looked to the riders. "Apparently, there was a powerful energy surge this morning." He told the riders. "Where would that be?" Kit asked. Trent sighed and brought up a screen. "Right in Gotham City." He explained. As Len and Chance looked at the city with interest, Kit started to groan. "Hate that place!" he spat. Len looked to his friend curiously and raised an eyebrow. "What's so bad about Gotham?" he asked. Kit Taylor chuckled and turned to Len. "Gotham is a city of crime. No one ever does anything about it, except Batman." Chance and Hunt chuckled. "Who's Batman?" Len asked. Kit looked to his friend and chuckled again. "He's just like you; all serious, cowl of a bat, and disappears before police show up." He explained. Len nodded. "I'm looking forward to meeting him." He stated. Trent snickered. "That's good, because Gotham is where you're heading." He informed the riders. Eubulon pointed to Kit, Adam, Len, Kase, Nolan, Chance, Hunt and Pryce. "The eight of you are going. When you have enough information for us, we will follow." The Advent Master ordered. The eight nodded and headed to their bikes.
In the parking lot, the eight prepared to go to Gotham. Kit looked to Adam and smiled. "So, you're a rider again?" he asked. Adam chuckled. "Master Eubulon gave me the Onyx Deck, so I'm fit for battle." The Ventaran explained. Kit chuckled and looked to Len. "By the way, no one ever meets Batman." He teased. Len chuckled. "We'll see about that, won't we?" he quipped to Kit. Kit laughed. He knew that Len would get anything he wants with any method necessary. The eight started their motorcycle engines and drove to a window, where they all vanished.
Gotham City 621 hours
The eight Kamen Riders entered an alley and parked their bikes. "We go on foot from here." Kit said to them. Len and the other Ventaran Kamen Riders nodded. Since Kit was the only Earth rider, he knew everywhere better than anyone else. As they exited the alley, Kit looked around. "Just how I remember it." He reminisced to himself. Kase walked up to Kit and asked, "How do you know this place?" Kit scoffed and looked to her. "I used to have a friend here named Artemis Crock. She would always show me around here when we were young. She's about two years younger than me." Kit explained. Kase chuckled. "Was there a crush?" she asked curiously. Kit's face went red as he looked to her. "She was always ogling me when she thought I didn't notice. I felt the same way about her." Kit responded. Kase chuckled. "Can't wait to meet her." She said. The other six Kamen Riders chuckled and followed the Earth Kamen Rider down the streets.
Meanwhile, Artemis left her apartment building and headed to see the Team at the Cave. She looked to her mysterious deck of cards before looking back at the apartment. "Bye dear!" Paula yelled and waved. Artemis waved back. She then walked over to the nearby alley, somewhere seven blocks away from home. As she was walking, she heard a strange humming noise. Shrugging it off, Artemis continued to walk.
As Kit led the Ventarans, he looked around after hearing a strange noise. The other Advent Riders looked around as well. "Is it a monster?" Kit asked. Nolan nodded no. "I sense a rider." Wrath explained. Len looked to Kit. "Eubulon mentioned there being new riders scattered around." He explained. Kit nodded. "Let's go find us a rider." He quipped. As the riders continued to walk, Artemis was looking around at the strange noise and didn't notice the group heading towards her. Kit looked to his right as Artemis looked to her left and then, all of a sudden there was a loud thud and a groan.
Kit rubbed his head and winced his eyes as he groaned, trying to remember what had happened. Artemis was doing the same. Len ran over to help his friend up. "Why don't you watch where you're going?" Kit asked angrily, his eyes still closed. Artemis shot up and snapped. "Why don't you?" she snippily snapped. Both were about to argue even more until they opened their eyes. Kit's blue eyes bore into Artemis' brown eyes as they both smiled. "Artemis, is that you?" he asked. "Kit, is that you?" Artemis asked back. Both smiled and laughed, knowing each other instantly. They bumped their fists together and laughed. Kase grinned and walked up to them. "Are you Artemis?" she asked dumbfounded. Artemis nodded, causing Kase to grin. "Kit has told us a lot about you." She stated happily. Artemis blushed in front of the older boy. "I did have a crush on him, and I still do." She explained. Kit smiled and patted her on the shoulder. Artemis cleared her throat. "Sorry to cut the trip short, but I have an errand to run for my mom." She lied calmly. Kit raised an eyebrow. "Is she still in a wheelchair?" he asked. Artemis nodded. "What are you doing here anyways?" she asked back. Kit sighed. "I'm taking some new friends on a tour of Gotham. Meet Len, Chance, Hunt, Pryce, Nolan, Adam and Kase." He introduced the archer to his friends. Artemis twiddled her fingers to them and said, "Hi." She looked to Adam and then back to Kit. "Are you twins?" she asked. Adam shrugged. "Technically, we are twins." Adam explained. Artemis chuckled. "I'd better get going." She said, leaving to who knows where for the Kamen Riders. "See you soon." Kit yelled. Artemis laughed and waved back.
Mount Justice 649 hours
Recognized Artemis B-0-7. The computer said as Artemis entered the Cave. As she saw the Team, she smiled. "Welcome back, Artemis." Aqualad greeted warmly. Artemis winked at him and then turned to Wally. "Hey there, Wall Man." She said. Wally smiled. Artemis chuckled, but grew a concerned look as she turned around. Rocket, the newest recruit to the Team, took notice of this. "What's wrong, girl?" she asked concernedly. Artemis sighed. "I've been going through some strange changes this morning." She explained. Robin chuckled. "Do they involve someone else?" he asked. Artemis shot him a glare. "Ew! No!" she remarked. Robin held his hands up in surrender. Zatanna stepped up. "What's going on then?" she asked. Artemis shrugged. "I don't know." She said honestly. The strange deck continued to glow within her pocket. "I met an old friend on the way here." She explained. The Team smiled. "Tell us." M'gann urged. Before the archer could explain, she had a vision.
There was a man in grey armor with a large bazooka in his hands. He blasted at an armored truck and broke into it.
Artemis snapped out of her trance and gasped. The rest of the Team gasped as well. "What is it, Artemis?" Connor asked. Artemis breathed four times before saying, "There's an armored car robbery in progress!" The Team gasped as Robin headed to the holo-computer. The young Grayson's eyes widened with surprise. "How did you know?" he asked. Artemis shrugged. "We need to get there!" she said. "Agreed, let's go!" Aqualad said. The Team acknowledged and exited through the Zeta Tubes.
Gotham City 716 hours
As Kit led the Ventarans down the streets of Gotham, a commotion of loud screaming caught their attention. Chance looked down the street and his eyes widened. "Look!" he yelled, pointing a finger ahead. The rest of the riders looked to see what was going on. There was an armored truck up ahead, being robbed by three figures. Nolan's eyes widened at the sight of a new rider with a spider deck. "He looks just like Torque!" Kit exclaimed. Len looked over to see a man in blue armor with something that looked like a glass helmet. "A new Kamen Rider." Len exclaimed. Chance stepped up. "What are we waiting for?" he asked. He was about to take out his Advent Deck until Kase stopped him. "Not in an open area." She reminded the genius through gritted teeth. Kit nodded. "There's our changing room." He quipped, pointing to an alley. The other riders followed Kit and entered the alley. Simultaneously, the eight pulled out their Advent Decks, which glowed and manifested belts onto their waists. "Kamen Rider!" they all yelled. All eight Advent Decks were slotted into the belts and a life-size orb surrounded them. Kit Taylor was now Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, Len was Kamen Rider Wing Knight, Kase was Kamen Rider Siren, Chance was Kamen Rider Torque, Pryce was Kamen Rider Strike, Nolan was now Kamen Rider Wrath, Hunt was Kamen Rider Axe and adjusting into his new armor was Adam, now known as Kamen Rider Onyx. All eight of the Riders went to surround the armored truck to ambush the evil rider.
Mister Freeze shot his Ice Gun at the armored truck as the rider behind him placed him at gunpoint. "We haven't got all day, Victor!" the evil rider snarled at him. Victor Fries scoffed and stood back. "We're good to go, break it down." He ordered. The evil Kamen Rider pushed him aside and was about to slot a card until a ball of fire hit him. The rider gasped and then looked to the side. He chuckled as Kamen Rider Dragon Knight stood there with his Strike Vent activated. "Kit, it's been a while." He stated. Kit stood in surprise, and then nodded in disagreement. "It can't be! Drew!" he growled at the silver rider. Drew Lansing was Kamen Rider Torque before, but when he tried to betray Xaviax for power, JTC, used-to-be Kamen Rider Strike, vented him. Drew Lansing chuckled evilly. "Back with a vengeance!" he quipped. "How do you remember?" Len asked as he came up beside Kit. Drew chuckled even more. "Wing Knight, what a surprise." He exclaimed. He chuckled before sighing. "Xaviax restored my memory, told me about the original riders and gave me a new deck. I'm now Kamen Rider Warhead." He explained. Drew growled when he turned to see Chance. "Now, I want my deck back." He ordered. The Ventaran chucked as he unsheathed a card. "Too bad, you won't get it." He quipped. Drew took out a similar card as they both slotted the cards into their visors. SHOOT VENT! Said the visors. As Torque and Warhead aimed their bazookas, Mister Freeze looked to Wing Knight.
"Nice suit, Batman." He said to Len. Len stood without a reaction on the outside while he raised an eyebrow inside his armor. He turned to Kit and nodded. "They think you're Batman!" Kit exclaimed quietly. Len chuckled. "Let's start acting like it, then." He stated. Len looked to Mister Freeze and pointed his sword to him. "You're going to pay for disrupting my city." He scolded the iceman. Mister Freeze growled and blasted his ice gun at him. Len slotted a card from his deck into his visor as the ice hit him. Mister Freeze laughed. "Batman is dead!" he proclaimed. "You wanna bet?" a voice came. Mister Freeze gasped and looked around. SWORD VENT! Came the voice of a visor. Wing Knight jumped out of a window and slashed at Mister Freeze's helmet with a lance-like sword in hand. "Never mess with the Dark Knight." He quipped. The helmet started to crack as Mister Freeze gasped.
The Team arrived through the Zeta Tube closest to the armored truck. "Reports claimed Mister Freeze was behind the attack! Let's find him and take him back to Belle Reve!" Robin said. Artemis nodded and looked ahead. "I'll get a head start!" Wally yelled. As he dashed towards the fallen truck, he stopped. Aqualad raised an eyebrow and caught up with him. "What is it?" he asked. Kid Flash pointed to the scene. There were eight figures battling Mister Freeze and a grey-armored figure. Robin turned to see that Mister Freeze's helmet was cracked. A man in tiger-themed armor walked up to Victor and unsheathed an axe.
Hunt stood in front of Mister Freeze and scoffed. "And they say that Gotham is full of crime." He retorted. Wing Knight stepped up beside him. "If he likes the cold, let him have it." He ordered. Kamen Rider Axe nodded and opened up his axe and slotted a card. FREEZE VENT! With that, Mister Freeze stopped struggling and froze up. Kit looked to Adam. "Let's do it!" Adam stated. Kit nodded as they both slotted the same card. STRIKE VENT! Two dragonhead-like gauntlets appeared on the two riders' hands and they took a step back. The Dragreder and Dragblacker circled Dragon Knight and Onyx as they both lunged forward. Chance slotted a card into his Magna Visor and looked to Drew. LAUNCH VENT! Two shoulder-mounted cannons appeared on Chance's shoulders and with the impact of the three shots, Drew was knocked back. He groaned as he looked to the fallen Mister Freeze and back. "I'll be back!" he declared. Kamen Rider Siren looked to Kamen Rider Wrath and they both nodded. Kase placed a card into her Blanc Visor and slotted it. Nolan also placed a card into his Gold Visor and slotted it as well. ATTACK VENT! The Blancwing appeared and shot a feather at Kamen Rider Warhead's helmet. Kamen Rider Wrath's Advent Beat, the Goldphoenix, also shot a feather at Warhead's armor as the Con Man disappeared.
Kit looked to the riders. "Good job, now let's go." He said to his Team. Just then, a news crew appeared and surrounded the riders. Len looked to Kit and chuckled. "Let's draw out Batman." He told Dragon Knight. Kit chuckled and patted him on the shoulder. Iris West-Allen placed a microphone up to Len's helmet. "Who exactly are you?" she asked.
The Team watched everything from the higher ground. "Who are they?" Rocket asked. Zatanna shrugged. "I don't know, but they seem friendly." She replied. Robin looked to the strange man in the bat cowl and his eyes immediately widened.
Len grinned at the question Iris just asked him. "I'm Batman, the real Batman." He replied coolly. The crowd began to overlap with confusion as Wing Knight politely grabbed the microphone. "I'm not the coward who disappears from the scene of a crime, the one who fights clowns like the Joker or uses toys in battle. I am vengeance, I am the night: I am Batman." He declared. The crowd went wild as Len smiled under his helmet. He gestured his hand towards Mister Freeze and craned his neck. "Take Mister Freeze away to Belle Reve where he belongs." He ordered Commissioner Gordon. "Right away, Batman." The commissioner said. Wing Knight glared at Mister Freeze as he was taken into an armored truck. "Know that the people of Gotham are able to live peacefully as long as the Dark Knight is around." He stated, causing the crowd to go wild once again. As Wing Knight gestured to have the crowd make a path for him, they all acknowledged and he stepped through. Just as he was about to disappear into the alleys, he turned around and caught a small boomerang. He looked up into the air and saw nothing. Wing Knight shrugged and went into the alley with the other riders being bombarded with questions. Pryce stepped up and looked to the reporters. "We need to get going." He said politely. The reporters and bystanders cheered on the new heroes as they disappeared from sight.

Robin kicked at the wall in frustration as the Team panted. "Hours of searching for this imposter and his friend, yet we still haven't found them!" the Boy Wonder complained. "No one impersonates my mentor!" he yelled on. Just then, before anyone could speak, Batman came through the Zeta Tube. "Did you all see the report?" he asked the Team angrily and monotonously. Artemis nodded. "Someone's taking your name!" she exclaimed. Robin grunted. "I tried to track him down with a birdarang, but he caught it." He admitted to his mentor. Batman pulled up the Holo-screen and looked at the armored hero. "I want to know who this imposter is, and why he and his friends are in our territory." He ordered. The Team nodded, but Artemis failed to notice something. Her Advent Deck started to glow with wonder.
