Chapter 1: Something Entirely Random

"I swear," joked Kai Ozu as he walked through the halls of the SGS Museum with Yuka Yamazaki, the love of his life who was currently not being held against her will by any King of the Berserkers, "the only way you could get me back into action is if the Infershia were to attack this museum, right now, and me without my MagiPhone." Yuka Yamazaki knew Kai was MagiRed, and now everyone else did too. He had proclaimed it at the top of his lungs.

Kai and Yuka walked past the Precious section of the museum where various treasures lie. Among them were the Brain and Heart of Gordom (and the lesser known Foot, Hand, Eye, and Penis of Gordom), the Pipes of Hamelin and the Pearl of the Empire. Kai pointed his souvenir SGS flashlight at the museum floor. He could swear he saw a man lying down on the floor with a sharp object by his side, and something red on the floor.

"Hibiki!" Kai called, "Wake up! You don't come to the museum to play drums! Now pick up your Armed Saber and wake up!" The man on the floor didn't respond. Yuka walked over to him and saw that he was a character that hadn't been in either of the series. Just some random man, lying on the ground, with the Boukenger compass cut into his chest.

"I think whoever did it used this," Yuka picked up a small gold-and-silver metallic chip on the ground with the same symbol engraved in it. "According to the guidebook, this is a Bouken Chip. Didn't know they were that sharp." While the random man lay on the floor dead, the museum's alarm systems began to set off wildly, summoning all five Boukengers and Morio Makino to the scene of the crime.

"Natsuki doesn't know what's going on," said Natsuki, the pigtailed girl in yellow, "is the Negative Syndicate here? In our own museum?" The thought dawned on her that they MIGHT be. "MASUMI! HIDE ME!" Natsuki cuddled close to the bad-teethed man in black, but Masumi pushed her away and focused on the actual danger.

"He was cut with a Bouken Chip," Makino explained, "Whoever was doing it is trying to lure us out."

"Lemme see that," Souta grabbed the bloody chip and held his Accelular to it. The blacklight flashed and revealed a word hidden on the chip. "It says…'Giordana'," Souta said, "Isn't that the guy who invented the Parallel Engines?"

"This is a clue to an adventure!" Satoru exclaimed, "I'm going off to find what Giordana has to do with this random murder, if the Negative Syndicate is involved, and if Jesus really is a baby daddy of somebody out there in the world!"

Dan Brown walked into the room. "The Giordana Code?" he asked, "You're ripping me off…which is strange. I don't even know you people. And the Jesus thing comes from my book."

"I'm not actually doing the last thing," Satoru snapped, "now, if I'm going to do this, I'll need a beautiful woman to be my love interest! She has to be smart, cool, and irresistible. I know just who to choose!" Sakura blushed.

"YOU!" Satoru grabbed Yuka Yamazaki by the arm and started to drag her out of the SGS Museum, but Kai AND Sakura grabbed him by his shoulders and stopped him.

"Chief, I think you meant to go with me," Sakura snapped.

"But you're not a schoolgirl," Satoru sighed.

"Hands off my woman," Kai replied, "If I had my MagiPhone, you don't know the terrible, horrible, magicy things I could do with COURAGE!"

"Fine, I'll take Sakura," Satoru sighed, "We set off on our adventure…next chapter!"

Dan Brown turned to Makino, Masumi, Natsuki and Souta. "Do you know that guy?"

They all shook their heads to say "no".

NEXT CHAPTER!

Satoru and Sakura play with Gordom body parts and revive Sir Pope Hat's strongest monster. An evil band of Kamen Riders starts to chase Satoru and Sakura for some reason that will be revealed ten chapters later. And MAYBE they'll get closer to figuring out the mystery.
