KKD: Well, this is quite a new twist on things. This is primarily a Super Sentai story, but I gotta thank someone I consider a Kouhai for coming up with it. Kouhai? Care to introduce yourself to the readers who don't recognize you?
SilverariaMaximum: Hello! XD
KKD: 0-o May I ask why you're XD'ing here?
Silver: Because I love being random! Anyways, hello, all! I'm SilverariaMaximum, or Silver for short, and I make fanfics on video games like Sonic, Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon, as well as a rather well-known (?) Toku Crossover fanfic called Super Sentai X Kamen Rider: Battle for Space and Time!
KKD: And it's thanks to him that we're working on this story, inspired by the actual Dice-O card game. In any case, this will include both characters of mine and his, and I hope you all like this. Ready to begin this story, Kouhai?
Silver: It may not be Card Games on Motorcycles, but it'll work just as well! Let's get started!
KKD: Then let's get started. Disclaimers, you're on.
DISCLAIMERS: Neither KKD nor Silver own Super Sentai or anything else used in this fanfic with the exception of some characters like Takeshi & Hana Narumi (KKD) or Kai Yuuto (Silver). The rest belong to Toei, Bandai, and their respective owners.
KKD: Please note, this story was written back last month while I was just Kamen Keyblade Duelist, so while this is the first story I published this year, it's not my first completely 2014 story.; that belongs to another story, but I'll post it when I'm finished with it's first chapter. Otherwise, consider this the last story I published as the original KKD.
"Alright, let's get going, guys!"
Running down the streets as fast as he can, a young boy about age 17 left behind two other kids in the dust, as he turned a corner, running into some sort of card shop.
"Sheesh, what's with him?" the older boy of about 18 sighed as he and his sister rushed to keep up.
"You know how Kai gets, bro," his sister stated, almost out of breath as they reached the card shop, "Whenever there is a new Booster set, he always gets this excited…"
"Figures," the boy sighed as they caught up with Kai, who had dark red hair with a gold streak in it, which stuck out wildly. His eyes were bright orange and seemed to burn like wildfire, and he wore a red and silver jacket with a gray t-shirt underneath and blue jeans. On his jacket was a pendant that was a circle, held by a design resembling cool sunglasses, and had the letters GB on the side of the glasses.
"C'mon, Takeshi! The packs are gonna be all sold out if we don't go and grab one!" Kai shouted, rushing toward the front counter.
The older boy, Takeshi, had windswept cobalt blue hair, emerald green eyes, and was wearing a red t-shirt with a gold and black symbol resembling a dinosaur footprint, blue jeans, and red and white sneakers. His sister, Hana, meanwhile, was basically his twin, and as such much of her physical features were similar to Takeshi, including the blue hair and green eyes, but her hair had red highlights and was styled into a ponytail. Her shirt was blue and had a small image on the front over her heart that looked like a silver badge with a dog's head and the letters SPD, which were also the letters on her back as well. She wore black jeans in contrast to her brother's blue, and also wore green sneakers.
"Oh man, I can't believe the new packs came out!" Kai exclaimed, looking through the packs to find the perfect one to buy, "New Liveman, Go-Busters, Battle Fever J… So exciting!"
"Dude, you are too excitable sometimes. I mean, we like Dice-O as much as the next guy, but you get a little over-hyped even for a superfan," Hana noted.
"She's right," Takeshi nodded before he saw a particular booster on the shelf. "No way… a Dino Sentai Trio pack featuring Zyuranger, Abaranger, and the new Kyoryuger?! WOOOOOO!"
"Hey, don't hog them all for yourself!" Kai shouted, trying to take the box from Takeshi. Hana just rolled her eyes, taking a pack from the Magiteck Set and buying it.
"You two are way too excited about that. And Kai, just leave him alone, Nii-san's very passionate when it comes to the Dinosaur themed Sentai," Hana sighed.
Kai finally sat down next to Hana holding 5 packs, opening them all up and looking at the cards inside. "Sugoi! AbareBlack! He's so cool!"
"Mou! You managed to get a cool Black Senshi," Takeshi groaned before he opened his pack to find… "Wow… I think you might be jealous here, man. Guess who I got."
"A Boukenger card?" Kai wondered aloud. He then looked over Takeshi's shoulder, to see the image on the card was a green warrior, who's helmet looked similar to a T-Rex. "Wha?! How did you get Dragonranger in your pack?! That guy is super rare! Let me trade you for him!" he shouted, trying to grab at the card.
"Seriously? You wanna trade something with me for the coolest sixth ranger in history, the first to perfect the troupe, and one of the best characters of any dino sentai, not to mention one of the reasons Super Sentai managed to make it global with America's Power Rangers? I don't think so Kai," Takeshi smirked.
Hana sighed. "You two are such kids," she deadpanned, ignoring the two and opening her pack in peace. "Let's see… GokaiYellow, MagiBlue, GingaPink, Princess ShinkenRed? And hey, ChangeMermaid, oldest senshi I ever got."
"How about this Kyoryuzin card? I know you'd want to have this one…" Kai stated, obviously desperate to get the green ranger card in Takeshi's hand.
"...Well… let's see… I also got… DekaRed… GaoBlack, AbareYellow, KyoryuBlue...?" Takeshi muttered, looking through his pack to see what else he had, wanting to avoid trading such a rare card.
"C'mon, man… I really want that card…" Kai moaned, holding the Dinosaur Mecha card in his hands while begging on his knees.
"...You're a real sucker for Burai's senshi form, aren't you?" Takeshi smirked.
"We both know you want that Megazord card, bro, but I wouldn't take it from a pathetic beggar," Hana stated, sticking her tongue out at Kai, "Here, Kai, how about you trade your Megazord card for THIS one I have, so you have a rare card too…"
"Wait… is that?" Kai gasped, looking up at the red card held above him. He stared at it in awe as Hana placed it into his hands. "Red Buster? Awesome!"
"So, what do you want to trade for this one?" Hana asked, holding the Kyoryuzin card in her hands and waving it at Takeshi…
"No fair, sis!" Takeshi groaned. He then sighed, looking defeated. "Here, you can have this Dino Bomber Card… I prefer the Howling Cannon anyways…"
"Fair enough," Hana smiled, the two swapping cards.
"Man, Red Buster is so cool!" Kai stated, "The way he sped around kicking those Buglar's butts in the show!"
"Man, if there's anything you like the most aside from some of the older cooler senshi, it's the Go-Busters and Gokaigers," Takeshi chuckled.
"Well, duh! There's so cool! I mean, spies and pirates? What's better than that?!"
"I can think of a few examples," Hana chuckled.
"Yea, like Dinosaurs for one," Takeshi added, further emphasizing his passion for the prehistoric.
"Okay, smart guy, how 'bout you put your money where your mouth is, then, and Dice-O battle!" Kai shouted, holding out a hand of eight cards in front of him, including some of the cards he had obtained today.
"You're on!" Takeshi smirked, setting up his own hand of eight cards, including those he got from his new pack.
The two teens ran toward multiple pairs of arcade machines placed back to back with each other. There were a couple of other kids on some of the terminals battling each other in the famous card game that was being played on the machine, Super Sentai Dice-O, based on the long-running series in Japan.
Both Kai and Takeshi placed their cards onto a scanner, which scanned the cards, causing 10 dice to appear. The dice suddenly opened to reveal different colored warriors.
"Red Buster! AbareBlack! DekaBlue! TimePink! MegaYellow! Red Team, Ready, Battle!"
"DekaRed! GaoBlack! KyoryuBlue! ShinkenPink! AbareYellow! Blue Team, Ready, Battle!"
"Let's go! Dice-O Battle!" the two shouted, as their rangers finished materializing. As they appeared, they each struck a pose and shouted out their roll call from the show.
"Red Buster! Busters, Ready, Go!"
"The Invincible Ryuujin Soul! AbareBlack! Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger!"
"DekaBlue! Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger!"
"TimePink! The lives of people are the future of this planet! Mirai Sentai Timeranger!"
"MegaYellow! Denji Sentai Megaranger!"
"DekaRed! Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger!"
"The Iron Bison! GaoBlack! Where there is life, there is a roar of justice! Hyakajyu Sentai Gaoranger!"
"Yoroi no Yuusha! KyoryuBlue! The World's Strongest Brave! Zyuden Sentai, Kyoryuger!"
"Shinken Pink! Shiraishi Mako! The Samurai Sentai authorized by Providence! Shinkenger! Going forth!"
"Dash with Guts! AbareYellow! Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger!"
Instantly, the fighters took toward the field, fighting each other one on one as Kai and Takeshi controlled each of them with the controls on the arcade machine.
"Ability! Buster Speed-up!" Kai shouted, as Red Buster dashed across the battlefield, knocking into DekaRed multiple times.
"You think that'll stop me? Weapon activate! Stego Shield!" Takeshi shouted as Kyoryu Blue spun his Gaburevolver across his arm, creating new armor and granting him a shield, then KyoryuBlue was able to punch out DekaBlue with just the shield.
"Aw man! DekaBlue could use some back-up…" Kai stated, switching control to MegaYellow, "Weapon activate! Mega Sling!" Instantly, a yellow slingshot appeared in MegaYellow's hand, which she shot at KyoryuBlue.
"Like that's gonna help. Weapon activate! Heaven Fan!" Takeshi responded, ShinkenPink pulling out her Shinkenmaru before it transformed into her weapon, she equipped it with the disc, and she attacked MegaYellow while KyoryuBlue blocked the attacks with his shield. "Shields are good for both offense, and defense, dude. You forget that?"
"No way! I was just using that as a distraction!" Kai shouted, as DekaBlue placed his sniper rifle-like weapon, the D-Sniper, at KyoryuBlue's chest and shot point-blank.
"KUSO! ABAREYELLOW! ABILITY! ABARE MODE!" Takeshi roared as his yellow ranger screeched like a Pteranodon before the diamonds on her body became spikes and she gained wings before attacking DekaBlue with incredible strength and speed. "HAHA! TAKE THAT, SUCKER!"
"Two can play at that game! AbareBlack! Ability! Abare Mode!" Kai responded, as the similar effect happened to AbareBlack. AbareBlack then grabbed AbareYellow out of the sky, throwing her to the ground.
"KUSO!" DekaRed! Weapon activate! D-Magnum!" Takeshi shouted as DekaRed pulled out his two blasters and fired rapidly at AbareBlack.
"Damn! 3 of my fighters are already at too low health to attack…" Kai murmured, thinking of what to do.
"Yosh! Now! Hissatsu! HOWLING CANNON!" Takeshi shouted as the five senshi summoned the weapons of the Zyurangers and combined them, aiming the blaster at Kai's team. "FIRE!"
"Oh no…" Kai gasped. Thinking fast, he hit the sixth control button on the controls, as another die appeared on screen, which opened up into a green ranger, who was able to block the shot.
"NANI?!" Takeshi gasped.
"Green Sai! Joining the Fight!"
"You forget, Take-Chan! I can use a helper Senshi as an auxiliary assist when I'm in a pinch, and while it damaged him, Green Sai still has enough health to join the fight!" Kai shouted victoriously.
"Green Sai! Choujuu Sentai Liveman!" Green Sai called out, as he posed together with the rest of Kai's team.
"Don't expect him to keep you in play forever, Kai!" Takeshi roared, pressing the sixth button on his controls, summoning another die, and from it emerged the green ranger Takeshi got.
"Dragonranger, Joining the Fight!"
"Dragonranger! Burai! Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger!" Dragonranger called out, posing with Takeshi's team.
"Time to take you out! Hissatsu! Gokai Galleon Buster!" Kai shouted, as a giant ship-like cannon appeared in front of his team, aimed straight at the opposing rangers.
"Red Charge! RISING STRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKE!" the cannon shouted, shooting a giant red blast of energy.
"Shoot!" Takeshi growled, rapidly pressing a button as KyoryuBlue somehow powered up, and when Kai's team fired, KyoryouBlue held up his shield, and surprising Kai, he was able to stop the blast.
"NANI?!" Kai gasped seeing this.
"Stego~ SHIELD!" KyoryuBlue shouted, sending the blast back at Kai's Sentai.
"Oh crap!" Kai shouted, as the blast came back. His team, which lay defeated on the ground, began to dissolve into data, signifying that Takeshi had won the fight.
"Ha! Bet you never saw that coming!" Takeshi smirked.
"Dang it! I was about to summon MagiKing too!" Kai complained, taking his cards and walking back to the table.
"Knew it," Takeshi smirked taking his cards back.
"Next time I'll beat you for sure! Man, I wish I could've gotten Dragonranger. I bet he would have been able to withstand that attack…" Kai sighed.
"Don't go talking about him like that; it was KyoryuBlue that did your team in," Takeshi pointed out.
"Oh, knock it off with the boy fighting…" Hana complained, holding up her cards, "I would like to see how smug you are after I kick your sorry hind into next week, Brother."
"Whatever you say," Takeshi shrugged. The two walked over toward the Dice-O machine to go and battle again, unaware that something was looking at them from above.
Viewing the group via a portal from a near all black realm, the being looked like his body was literally comprised of dice and cards while he wore a seemingly normal business suit, his only major parts visible being his card hands, poker chip shoulder blades, and dice head.
"So, these little whelps got their hands on some Soul Cards, eh? Well… we'll see how things play out for them…" he sneered, looking at the two teens playing Dice-O while Kai watched from the sideline, "Let the real games begin."
KKD: Soul Cards? Who is that creep and what is he talking about?
Silver: I dunno. But it seems like this will be a bumpy ride for our heroes. So, what did you think of this idea, Sempai?
KKD: This definitely is a cool idea. I'm actually looking forward to what'll happen next.
Silver: Thanks! I was mostly inspired by the Dice-O game that appeared in Japan (Man, what I would do to get to play that game in the US…), but it also has some elements mixed in of card games like Yu-Gi-Oh! and Cardfight! Vanguard. Man, I seriously love Vanguard! You ever played it, Sempai?
KKD: ...No, not Vanguard, but I have played Yu-Gi-Oh! Gomen, Kouhai.
Silver: It's alright. I highly recommend you give it a shot, though. Be warned, however. I am pretty strong with my main clans in that card game, the Royal Paladins and Gold Paladins. Anyways, I'm getting off topic. Shall we talk about what the readers can do to be involved in this fanfic?
KKD: Of course. See readers, we don't want our ideas to totally dominate this story. We want you to join in on the action, too!
Silver: That's right! We'd like it if you could create a character for this fanfic along with his/her Dice-O team! Quick rules are that a Dice-O team consists of 8 cards. 6 Ranger cards (Gorenger - Kyoryuger. We may include Tokkyuger when it comes out… if it's any good), one Megazord card, and a Hissatsu card. Be as creative as you can with mixing and matching cards to create the perfect Dice-O team! ^^
KKD: Also, just for reference sakes, give us your character's personality, their favorite Sentai or Sentai theme/motif, and their appearance. This will help us better incorporate them into the story. Also, if it looked like someone took something you wanted, don't worry, we'll work with that too. But those who have some of the best team ideas will be included in the story. So get thinking folks!
Silver: Sounds good! Now, shall we do our outro catchphrases, Sempai?
KKD: Hai, until next time readers, Jaa ne!
Silver: This is Silver, signing out! Stand up the Vanguard! XD
