Kamen Rider
Blood
*The roar of bike engines rings through the night air as the story begins under the full moonlight. A large and bustling city with lights eclipsing the very stars above. Speeding through the city streets are various bikers riding on steel vehicles rushing through traffic. Riding on these motorcycles were just rebellious teenagers laughing like maniacs.*
"Yahoo!"
"Get some!"
"Hey, guys look at this!"
*One of the teens in a skull helmet performs a wheelie in the streets chuckling along with his friends as they take a sharp turn and go down a dark alleyway as their headlights capture a man dressed in a red and black priest robe with a bible in hand.*
"Ah, gentlemen. Good to see you tonight."
*He closes his book and looks up revealing his elderly face to them. He grins at the children.*
"What the hell old man? Where do you think you are?"
*Yelled one of the teens as he got off of his bike and glared at him. Their eyes and skin soon flashed revealing stain-glass marking as his voice becomes distorted and nearly demonic.*
"You think you can just walk in on our turf?"
"Please my child. I'm not here to start a scuffle. I am only here to talk to you all. Tell me. Have you heard the word of god?"
*Silence rings in the air before the teenagers break out into laughter at the man's remark. The teen with stain glass marking then whistles as one of the others toss a metal bat into the air allowing him to catch it and point at the old man.*
"Old man. I'm in a bit of a good mood today. So instead of draining you I'll just-"
*His sentence is then cut off as his and the others screams fill the empty alleyway. One, however, manages to run away as the priest flashes a toothy grin while surrounded by the dead corpses of the various teens in their Kaijin forms. He reaches down and picks up his hat from a pool of Worm blood.*
"Ah… It does my heart good to cleanse this city. Hopefully, my work can be done soon."
*The beeping of a watch is heard as he rolls up his sleeve to see his watch. His eyes widen as he runs out of the alley and heads to the bus stop.*
"Oh no! I forgot about Saturday Service! I better hurry and catch the bus. Wait!"
*He yells as the bus arrives and allows him on with only a minute to spare. He exhales and takes a seat next to a window with a smile. He then looks out to see said teen still running away pushing other citizens out of the way in a frantic and almost psychotic panic. The priest smiles for a brief second before snapping his fingers releasing the sound of a bell ringing.*
"P-Please! HElp me! He killed them! A human killed-GAH!"
*The boy stops instantly as his fingers begin to twitch and veins appear on his neck. His eyes flash red before exploding into a torrent of green light and vines before emerging as a Dragon Inves. He roars and begins to attack the civilians before running into the city before the roar of an almost demonic engine. A large headlight turns on as a Kamen Rider in a strange suit of armor(think EVA-01 and Kamen Rider Amazon Neo fused) serves as its rider with blue neon lines running throughout the suit drawing attention to him. The Riders large blue compound eyes illuminate the night before hitting the gas and driving head first towards the monster. It reaches out with its claws and arm cutter blades as blue flames surround them extending their reach and power before skidding onto the floor and slashing the Inves in half causing the beast to unleash an almost unholy roar of pain into the night sky. The rider hits the break and watches the monster slowly turn to dust with blue cracks forming all around its body before exploding in a blue fire. The Rider starts his bike up and then drives off in silence. The title of the episode then appears.*
EPISODE 1: IMMIGRATION SONG
*The voice of a flight attendant is then heard.*
"Attention passengers! Attention passengers! We are preparing to land in Asgardia City! Please store your trays and return your seats to their upright positions."
*Adele jumps in her seat at the sudden announcement as she yawns and fixes her hair. Still groggy, she prepares herself for getting off of the plane, all the while she's thinking to herself how exactly she got herself into this situation.*
(Two Weeks Earlier)
"Adele. Can you please pick that up?"
*Said Kirisen in a sleepy state with her head upon the lap of Adele, her wife, who was stroking her hair. The female magic user rolled her eyes before chuckling and grabbing the phone off of its hook. She answered it.*
"Adele Soma-Tomari, how can I help you?"
*She said to the phone.*
"Hello, Mrs. Soma-Tomari. So sorry to disturb you this late but I'm from the City of Asgardia Council. We need your assistance."
"Alright. What's the problem?"
"We need your magic expertise and your skills as a Rider. We've had various magical attacks in densely human populated areas of the city and worst of all, human council members have been disappearing all over. We fear this may be the work of a Kaijin radical. Do you think you and your wife could come down to the city and help us out?"
Adele thought about it for a brief moment and saw the tired look on her wife's face. She remembered how earlier today, Kirisen and her both encountered the Rider named Star-Crossed once again and how he was a bit of a drag on her wife.*
"My wife's too tired out. But I can come over."
"Thank you! We will pay for transportation and rooming. Thank you so much!"
"No problem."
(Present Day)
*Adele struggles through the crowd of people until finally making it out of the airport and into the large and bustling city filled with Kaijin and humans walking in and out of the airport, cabs and even landing. She smiled, walking through the city taking notice of the bright blue sky, towering structures, and various creatures once thought to be mankind's enemies walking beside them.*
"I hope I've made you proud, dad…"
*She muttered to herself, clutching the hand her Lightning ring was on. The sputtering of a bike engine is then heard.*
"Look out!"
*Yelled a young male as she turned her head only to be met with the face of a young Japanese male screaming as he and Adele collide into one another.*
"GAHH! God damn it!"
*Adele got up, rubbing her head in pain. Before she was a young man in a brown and black letterman jacket with a black T-Shirt, Denim Jeans, and black Timberland boots. He rubbed his head in pain, hissing as he looks up at Adele with his brown eyes.*
"Oh god, are you okay?"
*She asked, going over to the man. He blushed at the very sight of Adele and backed a few inches away before standing up and brushing himself off. He then bowed to her.*
"O-Oh yeah! I'm fine, just hit a rock on my way here. I'm so sorry! Please forgive me!"
"Are you sure? That was a nasty hit."
*She asked, concern filling her voice.*
"Of course. I'm fine miss. J-Just a bit banged up. But I am so sorry about that. Please let me pay for any damages to your luggage or your person!"
*He said with panic filling his own.*
"That's not necessary, I've taken a beating harder than that."
"Still. I'm so sorry. I was in a rush and clumsy and… wait. OH NO! THE PIZZA!"
*He screamed as he ran to the sight of his downed bike and saw that the pizza's were now all over the sidewalk pavement and currently being dinner for a flock of pigeons. His face then took on an expression of pure sorrow as he stared at the defiled pizzas.*
"I'm so gonna be fired."
"It's ok, I can fix it."
*Adele said as she put on a ring, a picture of clock hands going counterclockwise on it. She scanned it with her driver.*
"Reverse, Please!"
*As if the whole thing was a video rewinding, the scene went back to how it was a minute ago. Immediately, the crowd of citizens around them back away out of fear at her recent action. The boy as well shivered.*
"W-W-Wizard!"
*He screamed before getting on his bike and immediately driving away. The sound of police sirens then entered the scene as a pair of police officers arrived at the scene.*
"Hello, there miss. We'd like to talk to you in private."
"Uh….ok? What's everyone so afraid of?"
*Adele asked, confusing clearly on her face. The officers placed their hands on her shoulder before the click of handcuffs could be heard.*
"Don't worry friend. We'll explain everything at the station, tourist."
'Hrm…..should I escape? Or would that be more trouble than it's worth…"
*She thought. However, she was already inside of the patrol car before she could even think as they made their way to the station through the city.*
"So then miss. May I ask why you were using Magic in a public area?"
"I was just helping a guy who dropped the pizza he was delivering. If magic is forbidden here, I'm sorry, I don't exactly have a book of this city's laws on me."
"It's alright. Honestly, Everyone makes a mistake when they first come to the city. But please be careful. A lot of the 'other folks' aren't okay with powers being used. Speaking of which, why help that thing?"
"'Thing?' He was just a delivery boy doing his job. I didn't see anything wrong with helping him."
"His names Giovanni. Sure he seems cute, but one wrong move and he'll go all Phantom on yeah!"
*His partner then laughed as they neared the police station only to be stopped by a stretch limo who parked in front of them.*
"Who the hell?! Stay here will ya."
*The partner said as he got out of the car. The window then winded down revealing the driver to be an Englishman in a swallowtail butlers outfit. He looked at the officer with a stern face before handing him a slip of paper changing the officers face from confident and egotistic, to that of a child who's about to be scolded by his parents. The officer then ran to the car and opened the backseat allowing Adele to leave.*
"Y-You are free to go, ma'am. Have a nice day."
"Wait. What the hell are you doing?! You're just letting her g-what the?"
*He then took the slip of paper from his partner and instantly froze before joining his partner in kissing Adele's ass.*
"Thanks for that, mister."
*Adele said, walking to the Englishman.*
"Hello madam. Are you Mrs. Soma-Tomari?"
*He asked in a voice and tone fitting for that of royalty.*
"Yes, I am. And you are?"
"My name is Chamberlain Bruno. But I'm not the one looking for you. He is."
*He said pointing to the back of the limo as the door then opens up. Chamberlain smirks before winding up his window with a small smirk on his face. Adele went over to the back door and found herself met with a Wolf Imagin sitting inside of the car wearing a suit with a red tie.*
"Hello, Mrs. Soma-Tomari. I believe my assistant has alerted you to our desperate situation?"
"Yes."
"Good. Get in."
*She nodded and entered the vehicle with the Kaijin who held out his hand/paw to her.*
"It's so glad to meet you Mrs. Witch. I honestly looked up to you and your wife when I moved to this city. You're even the reason I'm here running for office."
"A pleasure to meet you too."
"Granted while I've always wanted to meet you. I'm so ashamed that it's under these dire circumstances. You're aware of the disappearances correct?"
"Yes."
"Good. Then you're up to speed. As of current, last night something worst occurred. A group of young Kaijins was found killed in the alleyway beside Tezuka Street. 5 Orphenocs, 2 Worms, and 1 Fangire. We have theories but this is the second case of young Kaijins being murdered in the night."
"Any signs of how they were killed?"
*He hung his head in shame as he responded.*
"N-No. None at the moment. I'm sorry."
"It's ok. I'll help."
"Thank you so much! So much! We can take you to the scene of the most recent crime if you don't mind?"
"Sure."
"Thank you. Chamberlain. Head to the scene."
*The Englishman nodded before driving the car to the long and currently swarmed alleyway as police caution tape blocked both sides. Once they left Adele saw the aftermath of the murder as it was still fresh.*
"Damn…"
*A large presence is then felt behind her as a yellow and black Worm appeared behind her in an officers uniform. In between his claws was a cigarette.*
"I know. It never gets easier to watch this mess doesn't it?"
*Adele shook her head, looking at the scene. Another creature, a Roidmude appeared behind her and ran in to look through the scene before transforming into a female woman with short brown hair and brown eyes.*
"I need CSI and stat! We need to preserve the scene before it's contaminated. And you are?"
*She asked turning to Adele.*
"Adele Soma-Tomari. I was brought here to help with investigating and putting an end to this threat."
*The woman scanned her up and down before glaring.*
"Unimpressive."
*Adele chuckled.*
"Say what you want about me. I ain't looking for fans."
"I wasn't talking about that."
*She said while looking at her stomach and then poking. She sighed and walked away from her as the Worm held the tape above her head.*
"Don't mind her. She's just a grump when she's hungover. Names Basalik by the way. But most call me Baz."
"Nice to meet you."
"It trues what they say 'about you?"
"What you mean?"
"That you're really her. Witch. I mean it is a very valid question."
"Oh yeah. Have been for nearly a decade."
"Wow. Good job to you. I'm honestly amazed."
*Adele smiles at his comment before a small crowd of press appears at the scene of the crime. Baz groans as he takes a drag from his cigarette and looks at the crowd.*
"Oh great. These assholes. Listen, I'll handle the mosquitoes while you go ahead and see what you can find. Sound good?"
"Yeah."
*Bas nodded and walked towards the crowd of reporters discarding the butt of his cigarette. Adele looked at the remains of the crime slightly groaning as she started to regret not having her wife here.*
*"Ugh...you're so much better at this than me, Kiri…" She thought. It was then at the corner of her eye she saw a trail of sand leading away from the crime scene and into the sewers. The other female officer then approached her.*
"You got anything Rider?"
"A trail of sand."
"Sand?"
*The officer then knelt down and ran her finger across the sand. She glared at her eyes began to glow blue before looking up and sighing.*
"Good job. Rider. I'll have a team separate and investigate the sewers."
"Good idea."
"Come on guys. We should probably leave this to CSI anyway. Miss Adele due to you being asked to help out, in this case, you'll be coming with us. You have a ride?"
"Yeah, I have a motorcycle."
"Good. You can follow us then. By the way, you might be assigned to a troubling group who's in charge of stuff like this."
*She said in a very distasteful tone at the latter half of that sentence.*
"Uh….ok…"
(Later at the Police HQ)
*Adele stands outside of a small door with the sign stating 'Kaijin Protection Division' on the front. The woman sighed as she stood beside Adele before holding the knob.*
"By the way. You're gonna need to keep your guard up. These guys aren't the best of officers in the force."
"Ok."
*Once she opened the door, it was too late. Inside of the room was a small group of Kaijin and one human. One was an Elementary Inves who was currently making small Origami Frogs, another was a Bugster who was playing a video game on the TV screen against a Cobra Roidmude, and finally was a Ganma who was sitting in her true form listening to music while walking around holding a large boombox. Adele turned to her side to find the woman twitching as her eyes began to glow blue before transforming into her true Bat Roidmude form.*
"YOU LAZY BUMS!"
*The entire group instantly dropped what they were doing (in some cases literally) as they all lined up and saluted her.*
"Good afternoon, Chief Katsuki!"
*Adele snorted to herself. The chief exhaled loudly before reverting back to her true self and rubbing her temples.*
"Good. Now then. Everyone you have a supervisor for today until this newest case is put away. This here is Adele Soma-Tomari. Also known as Kamen Rider Witch. She'll be aiding you guys and accompanying you around the field. Got it? Good. Now then… wait. Where is your boss?"
"I ain't-a boss Yui. I'm basically their babysitter."
*Adele turned around as Baz stood behind her with a cup of coffee in hand. He looked down at her and chuckled.*
"Well, I'll be a horses ass! Are you working in my department now? Nice to see you again."
*He held his claws out to Adele. She smiled, shaking his hand-er-claw.*
"She ain't working for you Basilisk. She's taking your job."
*She said smiling before walking away leaving them behind. Bas then twitches annoyed before looking at Adele.*
"Well. At least it's an actual Rider."
*He said before lining up with his crew and then saluting her.*
"Boys boys, there's no need for that."
*Adele said before the female Ganma glared at her.*
"What?"
*Adele asked.*
"Don't mind Kim there. She's a bit upset when people don't really notice her. Either way. What's the first order of business boss?"
"Well...I don't know your names. So...how bout introductions?"
*The group mumbled to one another before Bas walked up and spoke.*
"Names Basilisk. I'm a Native Worm and if you want to get on my good side. I don't do menthol cigarettes."
*He went back in line as the others looked at him before looking back at Adele. The Elementary Inves then walked out alongside the Cobra Roidmude. It began to chitter and chirp like an actual insect before the Roidmude translated.*
"He goes by Tsurugi. He's an Inves and likes Origami and Frogs. He's also the youngest here. I'm Junji. A Roidmude who plays video games. Don't expect much from me okay."
*The bugster then walks out.*
"Names Zetsu. I'm a bugster from the game Spirit Walk. I like games. That's it."
*He walks back into the line before looking at Junji before the last one remaining was the Ganma Girl. Who simply huffed her chest and turned invisible.*
"And… she's gone."
"Uh….ok.."
*Adele said, baffled by the Ganma Girl. Bas sighed and scratched his head before looking at Adele.*
"So then boss. Anything you wanna do now? We have the old case files in the back if you wanna check them out."
"Thanks. I think some more info could help us out."
*He nods and opens the backroom revealing to Adele the mountains of boxes filled with missing person cases and various other case files. Adele twitches as Bas takes out another cigarette and lights it.*
"Looks like we're gonna be here for awhile. I'll order us some food."
*"I really wish you were here, Kiri…* Adele thought as she sweatdropped like an anime character.*
(Hours Later)
*Adele walked out of the police station, her eyes droopy and tired as Bas walked out behind her.*
"I'm guessing you're not used to working an actual Job huh?"
"Kiri's usually the one with a job…."
*He lit another cigarette and sighed as he put on his hat and looked down at her.*
"I could tell. You had no idea what you were doing. Either way, since you're new here wanna grab a drink or two? I know a great bar down on Devil's Island. Bottomless Steak Fries."
"Good idea."
*They went on their way to the area of the city which was dilapidated and in a horribly ruined state. Adele looked around and saw something graffitied to the side of an empty and defunct apartment building. An image of an almost demonic Rider's helmet with two large blue compound eyes with a single horn going upwards and a mouth guard with a design giving it the appearance of having fangs. Bas then yelled from behind her.*
"Yo. What are you doing?"
*Adele turned to him, pointing to the image.*
"Any idea what that's all about?"
*Bas looked at the image and growled before taking his cigarette out of his mouth and stomped it out.*
"Blood. An urban myth. Nothing more. Nothing less. Come on. Let's head in before all the good booze is gone."
"Alright then.."
*They entered the bar to find the building running amok with various drunk Kaijins fighting, drinking, and some even f&$king. While Bas looked like he'd just came home while Adele, on the other hand, thought to herself.*
"Well….only the 2nd time I've come to a place like this."
*She thought. The next few hours were occupied by Bas and Adele drinking themselves to near death with Adele now sitting at the bar looking at her phone to find no message from Kirisen. The bartender then placed another glass in front of Adele.*
"Let me guess. Significant other hasn't messaged you since you got here?"
*Asked the man as he poured out into the glass.*
"You betcherass she hasn't…"
*A drunk Adele said, downing the glass. The bartender chuckled before pouring out some more for her.*
"So then. I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and ask-she's home and you're stuck here. Right or wrong?"
"Right as rain….heh...right ass…."
*Adele chuckled a bit, drinking.*
"Alright then. Final question. Is that guy with you?"
*He said pointing to Bas who was using his Clock Up Ability to steal fries from other patrons along with their booze.*
"Heshinvited me in here….ha….henshin….henshin….."
*Adele giggled uncontrollably. The bartender sighed and scratched his head before Adele's vision began to blur before falling over onto the floor.*
(Sometime Later)
*Adele instantly wakes up sitting inside of a booth as the bartender cleans up the counter.*
"Oh, you're awake!"
"How long was I out?"
"Long enough for the placed to clear out once they heard 'he' was coming this way."
"Who?"
*The bartender goes silent as the power goes out within the bar.*
"Blood."
*A loud and demonic roar is heard as the blur of lights can be heard from outside along with a loud explosion that illuminates the bar. Adele immediately flees the bar and storms outside to find a large wall of flames along with a destroyed car and an injured Troll Phantom who struggles to stand on his feet. He looks over to Adele and screams out to her.*
"P-Please! Help me! You have to hide me!"
*He screamed as in the distance a single head light is seen with a pair of neon blue eyes with similar colored lines. Like a demon dwelling in the darkness the engine begins to growl and revs up.*
"He's going to kill me!"
*Adele ran to the Phantom, helping him up. The Rider opposite to them starts his bike and drives directly towards them as his bike releases a roar akin to that of a demon from hell. The Rider closes in on the two before the Phantom pushes Adele out of the way and takes the hit of the bike, sending him flying into the flames. The Rider stops his bike and dismounts as he slowly makes his way to the now-injured Phantom. He growls before a dark blue flame erupts from his body, blinding Adele as she sees it form a very horrific image of a four-eyed wolf. The Rider takes a crouching position.*
"STOP!"
*Adele yells, trying to get up. It's too late. The Rider launches himself into the air as the demonic wolf disperses and flows to his legs enhancing their power before striking the Phantom in the chest with a dropkick creating a wave of energy that sends it flying before landing on the ground screaming in pain. Cracks form on his body emitting blue flames before engulfing him turning him to nothing but ash. The Rider then stands and makes his way back to his bike.*
"Kisama…"
*Adele grunts, getting up, the Rider stops and looks at her with his glowing blue eyes piercing her soul. Adele then holds up her Flame Ring and places it on her finger.*
"Henshin."
*She says, scanning the ring on her driver.*
"FLAME! PLEASE! Heat, Heat, Heat Heat Heat!"
*A red circle passes through Adele, turning her into her Flame Style. The Rider in silence stands still with the crimson flames behind him. A low growl is heard from him before the neon blue lines increase their brightness before unleashing an explosion of blue flames reforming into the demonic image of the wolf once again.*
"You'll pay for what you've done."
*Adele says, scanning a ring.*
"COINE! KICK STRIKE! SAIKO!"
*Adele twirls, her foot glowing with raging fire, getting into a stance. The Rider crouches down as the flames surround his body and transcend down to his feet. The two launch into the air and fly towards one another leaving a trail of fire.*
