Welcome to Kamen Rider Neo Gaim! This is a rewrite of a really amazing roleplay that I'm very proud to be apart of. However it's end, I wondered what I'd do if I wrote it as a fic. Everything in this is based off the roleplay in terms of major events, but it just has a bit more spread around and spaced out if that makes any sense.
Some of the prerequisites I feel like sharing was that everybody in the roleplay had a chance to get the Kachidoki and Kiwami lockseeds. So even Gridon in theory could get Kachidoki. Another thing is that not everybody was apart of the roleplay from the beginning, but that won't be the case here. I will be doing my best to integrate all the characters including my own in an organic way.
Hope you enjoy Neo Gaim Episode 1!
Episode 1 "Knuckle and Gaim! Slash and Punch!"
"CAN WE GIVE IT UP FOR TEAM GAIM!" The DJ shouts enthusiastically as Team Gaim enters onto the stage with the crowd of people surrounding it going crazy for it. Team Gaim immediately begins to start their dancing routine with the music blaring and the crowd going wild. In the middle of Team Gaim, danced Ren Myoukouin, the leader of Team Gaim.
"Thank you everybody for coming out!" Ren shouts into the crowd excitedly with them cheering.
"I don't think I heard that one Ren," One of the Team Gaim members retorts with Ren smiling.
"You hear that Zawame City!? You gotta step it up for our poor deaf teammate!" Ren shouts again with the crowd cheering at the top of their lungs. The dancing continued when suddenly the music screeches to a stop.
"My my Gaim, getting bold, are we?" Riki, the leader of Team Red Hot, would taunt as he stepped up onto the stage. "Dancing on my stage? You've got some nerve."
"Your stage? If I remember correctly, I beat you fair and square." Ren retorts as Riki scoffs.
"If you call that lazy excuse for a Lock winning then sure Gaim," Riki then reaches into pockets pulling out a Lockseed with an orange on it. The crowd gasps along with a few Team Gaim members. "But now I got a Lock that'll blow you out of here!"
"I'd like to see you try," Ren then reaches into his jacket pulling out the Strawberry Lockseed.
-Fruit Parlor-
Meanwhile another more… physical fight occurs on the other side of the city between Team Knuckle's Mamoru and Team Soten.
"Say it again!" Mamoru shouts at the group of Soten members.
"Team Knuckle is a disgrace to the Beat Riders," One of them pipes up as Mamoru clenches his fist punching the one who talked sending him into a table behind the group.
"You'll pay for that you reject Beat Rider!" Another member shouts throwing a punch Mamoru's way with him easily managing to block it with his forearms. Mamoru then swings his left arm under the guy's guard giving him a knockout punch to the chin! The other members would grab their two fallen members backing up in fear.
"Don't speak bad about my team!" Mamoru retorts angrily as they run out of the fruit parlor in a hurry.
"Damn it Mamoru, again?" Hideaki would comment coming out of the back hearing the commotion.
"Sorry sir, I'll clean it up." Mamoru apologizes going to pick up the fallen table.
"Don't let there be a next time, my parlor is meant to be a neutral ground for you crazy kids." He retorts walking off leaving Mamoru feeling bad about attacking the Team Soten members.
-North Dancing Stage-
Meanwhile back with Ren, he closes his Lockseed looking back at Riki victoriously.
"Looks like your bark is much more brutal than your bite," Ren taunts putting his hand up to catch the Lock as the Orange Lockseed flies over to him. He then pockets both.
"Y-you cheated!" Riki shouts suddenly turning around and running off with his team following behind.
"Alright everyone, that'll be all!" Ren announces to the crowd who whine for a bit, but are mostly satisfied after an Inves Game and their dance routine beforehand. The crowd disperses, and Ren sits with his team.
"Man, those Team Red Hot guys ain't got anything on us now with your awesome Lock Ren!" One of the Team Gaim members would remark excitedly as Ren just sorta nods.
"Why do I feel… so unsettled?" Ren thinks to himself worriedly.
-Sonozaki Mansion-
Meanwhile outside the city in a fantastical mansion, Akira Kureshima seeks to sneak out.
"I'm so so late!" Akira mutters to herself in distress throwing clothes behind her, to the side, and all around worriedly looking for her Team jacket. Akira however sighs with relief picking out her jacket and putting it on as it had been trapped behind some pants.
"Akira, I'm heading out!" Akira's older brother Takeshi would call from downstairs making her freeze up.
"Um, okay!" Akira shouts back thinking to herself that she didn't know he was still home. She can hear the downstairs door slam shut and she sighs slumping down in a chair. "That was too close…"
-East Dancing Stage-
Meanwhile back with Mamoru, him and his team are dancing on a newly acquired stage.
"Something feels off," Mamoru would tell his friend Todoroki after their dance routine was over.
"What do you mean boss? You wanna change up the routine?" Todoroki asks curiously.
"No, no, the routine is fine. It's weird, but I feel like there's just something different about today." Mamoru thinks aloud to Todoroki before smiling and giving a thumbs up. "Probably nothing though, let's go give our crowd something to chew on!"
"Yes sir boss!" Todoroki replies running off to tell the other members of the team.
"Your name's Mamoru correct?" A sudden voice would call out to Mamoru with him looking over to who it was.
"Yeah, what's it to you?" Mamoru replies as suddenly the person takes out a Matsuborriki Lockseed.
"A certain somebody wants you out of the Beat Rider scene," The person retorts creepily unlocking the Lockseed.
"Matsuborriki!"
"If you want a fight, then I'll give you one!" Mamoru replies confidently about to take out his own Lockseed when suddenly the person throws the Lock in front of Mamoru as the zipper for the Inves appears. "He dropped it?"
Suddenly the zipper opens and an Inves enters through it being human size suddenly.
"What!?" Mamoru exclaims in shock as the Inves immediately charges at Mamoru ramming into him. The Inves however suddenly pushes past Mamoru appearing before the crowd gathered around the stage. The crowd immediately begin to scream trying to run away the Inves, but a man is grabbed from behind causing him to drop his suitcase.
"No!" The man would shout before being slashed across the chest by the Inves throwing him away from the briefcase. Mamoru would be scrambling to get his team away from the monster before seeing the man be attacked.
"Todoroki get everybody out of here!" Mamoru suddenly commands charging at the Inves to save the guy who was attacked ramming it with his shoulder. The Inves stumbles back, but slams the back of it's arm into Mamoru sending him flying on top of the briefcase breaking it open.
"Mamoru!" Todoroki shouts concerned as Mamoru props himself up on the now opened briefcase feeling something familiar in his hand. He looks down seeing the Kurumi Lockseed along with some sort of device.
"I'll be fine Todoroki, just get everybody out of here!" Mamoru shouts back as he grips the device and the Lockseed standing back up. He looks at the device curiously before placing it on his waist with suddenly a solid yellow belt forming out of it wrapping around his waist. "Woah!"
The Inves takes notice and hisses at Mamoru causing Mamoru to jump back a bit. The lock then accidently unlocks.
"Kurumi!" The Lockseed sounds out suddenly.
"Wait…" Mamoru realizes the back of the lock would fit in the belt piece perfectly. He places it on the Driver with the Inves starting to back up wary of the device. Mamoru then pushes down the lock onto the belt.
"Lock on!" The belt would sound out with a sudden music beginning to play.
"Henshin?" Mamoru lets out as he slices down with the weird knife attached to the side of the Driver.
-Fruit Parlor-
Meanwhile Ren and his team would be dealing with their own problem as the same person drops down a Lockseed.
"What are you doing!?" Ren shouts at the person who begins to walk off with the Inves appearing. Ren would begin to back up with his team running behind him exiting the building as fast as they can.
"Back here!" A Lockseed dealer would shout from the back of the fruit parlor with Ren beginning to run towards him with the Inves going on a rampage. However, the Lock dealer was standing next to a dead end.
"You're gonna get us both killed!" Ren exclaims as the dealer begins to reach into his bag suddenly taking out a belt like piece.
"Put this on and use a Lockseed to transform and beat the Inves!" The dealer practically begs as the Inves gets in front of the two blocking off their only way out. Ren reluctantly takes the device attaching it to his waist.
"Time to rip you apart!" Ren declares at the Inves as he takes out his Strawberry Lockseed. He then unlocks the Lockseed and places it on his belt.
"Ichigo! Lock on!" The belt and Lockseed sound as music begins to play.
"Henshin!" Ren exclaims as he also grips the knife bearing down on the Lockseed.
In two different locations, two new heroes are born with the simple cause of surviving.
"Suiya! Ichigo Arms: Shushutto Spark!"
"Suiya! Kurumi Arms: Mister Knuckleman!"
A blue and gold undersuit would form onto Ren as well as a helmet with a sudden strawberry descending from the sky landing on Ren. It then begins to open forming onto Ren with two daggers appearing in his hand.
With Mamoru a silver and black undersuit would form along with his helmet as a giant nut fell on him opening up and attaching to him like armor. Two giant fists would suddenly form on each hand as well.
"What's going on!?" Mamoru shouts shocked by what had just occurred with the Inves beginning to back up obviously frightened.
Meanwhile a man stands alone in a forest donned in a pink and white armor covering his whole body.
"It's begun…"
