I do not own Kamen Rider Drive nor Monster High.

Rain fell from the sky, everyone between monster and humans went on their own ways in their own homes. However, things did not go as planned, as the borders were destroyed by an attack of unknown origin, some kind of android like beings invaded the earth as the entire world began moving slow motion. As if a huge weighted density slows everything down, the water, fire, even people were having a very hard time moving. These androids attack all over the world, both humans and monsters harming anyone in their path.

A baseball is dropped into a rain filled puddle and splashed, but it is in slow motion due to the world around them being weighted of heavy pressure. A young boy was being held protectively by his mother while his father having metal baseball bat in his hands and a minotaur man with closed fists besides him. Humans and Monsters never liked each other, but these two individuals are not facing each other… but their opponent… is one of the invading androids.

None can barely move as they try to attack the android but failing as the humanoid machine walked casually even if the world is heavy, the father stood first but was stabbed in the chest. The Minotaur tries to avenge the father but was swatted away and was slammed to a brick wall.

Even when the world became heavy, the mother and son witness the fight and the android coming closer to them… until a miniature highway developed out of nowhere and in between the attacker and victims. A red miniature car road across the tiny highway, lighting itself on fire lighting the highway to create a fire wall.

The android stopped and backed away until it turns around to see a strange black armored warrior, with the helmet and visor brighten like headlights and attacked the android.

The boy watches past his mother's arms, seeing the high tech armored warrior battle the android as more of the enemies try to battle the defender of humanity. A struck of lightning brighten the world.

*GASP!*

A black haired teen with brown eyes bolted up from the back seat on the right window, looking around to see still passing trees and sign. The teen wore a red shirt with black and orange hot rod flames underneath a black jumpsuit jacket and blue jeans. He was wearing large headphones, listening to music in his recent slumber, taking off the devices and looks at the driver's seat.

"That dream again honey?" His mother said as she drives van, paying attention to the road as she looks over the rear view mirror, an angle enough to see her son. He could see his mother's dark red hair and emerald eyes, wearing a yellow top and blue jeans.

"...Yeah… that dream..." the teen said and looks away to see the scenery. "Are we there yet?"

"Not yet Chris." said a gruff but gentle voice. The teen peeks to see a muzzle of a humanoid black bull and short curled horns. These are his parents, the mother is Amanda Davis, and his stepfather, a minotaur named Alister Bounds."We're arriving at the border gates of New Salem."

My name is Christian Bounds, formerly named Davis, I just moved away from Boo York to New Salem. Sure it has been a rocky start for us humans because we live in the monster world now due to the marriage.

Right I should start at the beginning.

In a world with untold mystery, there lived a two species, one for humans, the other… monsters. Humans have heard the terrifying tales of monsters, creeping up the night to frighten anyone as well harm their homes, family, and lives. However, the Monster society is no different than humans, other than being… different. Such as enhanced strength, speed, including some inhuman features to be from mythical creatures or made science made. Both Humans and Monsters could coexist… however, the pride, jealousy even stubborn mind would think otherwise…

And something else.

About a few years ago, a strange… I don't know how to describe it… but I can say the world had experienced a Global Freeze. It is not as you think, because it was not a temperature drop into the Ice Age, it's because the entire world stopped moving. I've felt it too and so did everyone else, it felt like heavy pressure is weighted, making mobility of everything very difficult. I can still remember those strange creatures… androids… I'm assuming, I can still remember the time heavy pressure upon my body…

Sorry, it's a very touchy subject.

Right now, Alister married my mom, at first I was surprised to have a monster of a stepfather? But it took me a while to accept him, well he did try to save us from the attack what got my attention, and I owe him. Hey, if he can bring my mom back from a world of loneliness and darkness to light and happiness, that is an accomplishment and my approval. After observing what he does for a living as a Physical Deaducation instructor, mom and I decided to try a little living in the monster realm… might I add it is really amazing and far more humble. Sure it took the other monsters to accept the idea of this kind of arrangement of one of the first humans living with monsters, but we all learned to try and compromise and live peacefully.

But for me that's a double-edged sword, during my time in Boo York I was considered an outcast along with the bullying. One time I got into a fight with a gang of Orcs when I was on my way home from a local bakery, I blacked out, and I 'woke up' so to speak to me standing before the bully, on the ground bruised and bleeding... With my own swollen, bleeding, knuckles. Everyone said I was a sleeper agent, most people said I was some kind of human experiment… I considered myself dangerous. So the past few years I resorted to being homeschooled to keep everyone safe from me, I do not know what had happened, but I cannot make the same mistake again.

-Oh, we passed the border, one step down, the next up the mountain.-

Right now, Alister's job of being a school coach transferred him to New Salem's Monster High School and my mom got a new job as creature veterinarian after she graduated Boo York's Creature and Animal Veterinary school.

Now here we are, moving to New Salem to start a new life.

"Should be up ahead." Alister said as he looks at the many houses through the neighborhood.

Amanda focuses on driving while looking around the houses. "There so many," she said in awe. "How do we know which one is ours?"

Chris just looks out the window to see the open space of the neighborhood, there lacks many buildings which block the sun, as well more plants than and flora decorations than just the balcony and fire escapes. "Hopefully it's home." he mutters.

Alister points with his big hands and finger at a certain house. "There," he said. "That's our new home."

Chris looks up ahead to see a two story house with uncut grass which could reach to about a foot tall. The house exterior made of durable bricks much like the other homes, as well a small garden close and a large porch side for outdoor sitting. Amanda pulls up the driveway to put it on park as Alister exits as reaches his pockets for the keys and opens the door. "One small step for minotaur and family." he said and steps inside and turns around to his family. "One giant leap for our new lives." he jokes to brighten the mood.

Amanda giggles as she grabs a light weighted box from the trunk of the van while Chris smirks humorously with his head shaking as he takes a heavier box. His ear twitch just to see the moving truck coming in, driven by a couple of gargoyles pull to the side of the driveway. Alister got out to the driveway and waves his hand. "Thanks for the help boys." he said as the gargoyles flew off with their job done. "I got the heavy stuff son." he walks over to the moving truck, lifting up a refrigerator with ease as he marches into the now opened garage. "Your room is upstairs, it should be the large one other than the master room." he said to Chris as he passes by.

As the teen takes his box and turns to the house, his eyes saw something glinting on the side of the house. He looks over if anyone would have noticed, he wanted to go on his business and help move in… but his curiosity is much bigger… he walks to the side of the house, right behind a dead bush from the gardens… to see something odd. It was a small toy car with a red paint job, he picks it up to inspect it, looking like it is brand new. "Hm… looks like some kid dropped this?" he said and looks around, seeing if anyone is looking for the toy. "Ah well, I'm sure the kid will come looking for it." Chris said and pockets the toy car and continues his way inside of his new home

But what he or anyone in the neighborhood is unaware, a black Honda NSX with a red and lines in the middle across the body. Inside is a middle aged man holding up a small binoculars, watching the human teen picking up the small car and walks to his new home.

"He picked it up." The man said as he puts it away, looking at the dashboard. "Just like you said he would."

"He'll be a good candidate," said the dashboard in a slight computer voice. "We need a human who has experience with both Humans and Monsters for our new unit."

"Right." the man said as he pulls up his tie. "We're in top gear."

As all the boxes taken inside and most of the furniture set in designated areas in a large living room area, Chris walks inside of the moving truck to find anymore boxes which needs to be taken in. Alister walks as he waits at the entrance of the trunk for Chris to come out with more furniture.

"Hello there." The minotaur's attention is caught and turns to see a married werewolf couple walking up to him. Both are brown furred, the husband seem a almost as tall as Alister, only half a foot shorter. The wife is about a shoulders height to Alister as she held a tray of cookies. "You must be the new neighbors?" The husband spoke and outstretched his hand to the minotaur.

"Yes we are," Alister shook his new neighbor's hand, trying to look as polite as possible with new people, "My family and I just moved here about an hour ago. My name is Alister Bounds."

"I'm Clawrk Wolf," The husband introduces himself and wraps his arm around his wife's waist as she snuggles to her mate. "And this is my wife Harriet Wolf." however, the female werewolf's gaze around the moving truck and the house.

"Where is your family?" Harriet asked curiously.

"My Wife is inside taking a break from moving furniture, and my stepson is checking the truck to see if anything's left."

"Hey dad!" Chris's voice is heard inside truck, catching the attention of the adults outside. "There's no more boxes in this truck, should I start pushing the sofa out?"

"Hang on, don't want to ruin the legs. Excuse me for a second." Alister hopes in the truck bed to cause a light shake from the recently added weight.

Clawrk looks over to Harriet with a smile. "They sound nice?" he said and looks at their new neighbors two story home. "Normally we would see Minotaurs as hostile and territorial?

"Oh I can't wait to see the whole family." The werewolf wife agrees as her ears are twitching with eagerness.

They then hear a rumble in the truck as Alister is backing up to the entrance of the trunk. "Ok, ok, set it down here," he said and the couch is placed near the edge of the truck. The Minotaur hops off on ground level and grabs couch again. "Alright ready?"

"1, 2," the younger voice counted down to signal his father. "3!" the couch is lifted almost simultaneously, allowing Alister to backup to pull the furniture out. Clark and Harriet watched as the couch is taken out… only to have their ember eyes widened in shock to see the Normie teen boy shuffling out. "Ok, stop!" the furniture is put down at the edge and the Normie boy hops off. "Ok again!" the large furniture is lifted again, the monster and human shuffles together to the front of the house.

"Um… Alister?" Clawrk spoke up as he is still in shock. "Is he your son?"

"Hold on, give us a second! Right! No, your right!" Alister hollers over as he looks behind him, in charge of steering the couch for his step son. "Ok, here is good for now." Both step father and son put it together, walking to each other and high fived one another. The Minotaur turns to the Werewolf family and puts his hand on his step son's shoulder. "Clawrk, Harriet, this is my step son, Christian Bounds."

The introduced son gently greets them with a wave and smile. "Nice to meet you two." but all he could see is their shocked have not left the presence just yet.

Alister sees this kind of awkwardness and pats Chris's shoulder. "Go ahead inside and get your mother, grab a couple of water bottles and our folding chairs."

"You got it dad." the Normie teen heads inside the house through the front door.

As the three monster adults waited for the human to get inside from hearing distance, Alister looks at them with his arms crossed with a light stare. "Alright, speak your minds out," he said with a protective voice and listens to the two.

Harriet elbows her husband to snap out of his stunned trance. "Sorry," Clawrk straightens himself out with a slight cautious look, "Um, it's just," he pauses for a moment, choosing his words carefully. "We weren't expecting a… um…-."

"What he is trying to say is, we never expect you and your wife to have a… Normie… son?" Harriet finished what her husband could not say.

"Normie wife and stepson." Alister said and scratches the back of his head and exhales softly. "It's a really long story, but I like you two to meet my family first."

Clawrk and Harriet looked at one another, shrugging and nod at the Minotaur when the tension began to ease a little. "That would be wonderful." the husband said as his and his wife's breathing are now under control.

"Honey," a voice is heard to see Amanda walking out of the house and sees the Wolf couple. "Oh neighbors!" she said cheerfully, walking next to Alister and hugs his arm. The Werewolves looked a little shocked, getting used to the fact a Normie woman and a Monster man are together. Amanda watches them for a few seconds and looks up to her husband. "They seem to be taking well." she said with a smile.

Alister shrugs after looking down to his wife and back to the Wolf couple. "Clawrk, Harriet, this is my wife, Amanda Davis."

"Bounds," the human wife corrects her husband. "I've stopped using that name when I married you."

"Right sorry." Alister smirks with a teasing look, he then sees Chris grabbing a small ice cooler in one hand and under his other arm are about three folding chairs. "Here Chris, I got that." he said and grabs the chairs and unfolds them. "Come sit." he offers the wolf family a seat as he gestures couch. "I'll grab the the fold out table, why don't you all chat while I get it." he said and leaves his family side and went inside of the house.

The werewolf couple looked hesitant and sat down on the couch, surprisingly it is quiet soft and comfy. Chris and Amanda took their seats on the metal folding chairs, the son took out a water bottle and hands it to his mother who gratefully took it, he takes out another bottle. His gaze turn to Clawrk and Harriet, and offers one bottle. "Are you two thirsty?" he asked in concern. "We have plenty in the cooler."

"Um…" Clawrk hesitated as he looks at the human teens offering. Many thoughts had process faster than he could ever image. Is this boy about to poison him, what is he doing, is that even wa-. Harriet nudges her husband to snap out of it, her eyeballs telling him. 'Don't be rude!' The husband werewolf looks at the water bottle again. "Sure," he said and takes the bottle as well another one for his wife. He opens one of them and sips it to test it for his wife, it is ok, it is just water in a bottle.

Amanda and Chris looked at one another with utter confusion, but shrugged. To humans and monsters it is to find a compromising spot to sit down and have a talk, a miracle if there will ever be true peace with one another.

"I'm back." Alister said and unfolds a wooden table. "Here, let me place the tray of cookies for you." he said as Harriet the Minotaur husband the tray and puts it on the table.

Chris looks at the plate of delicious pile of confection, allowing Harriet to giggle a little. "Go ahead, their homemade chocolate chip."

Chris nods and takes one and took a bite without hesitation. Sweet and freshness took over his taste buds, mentally holding in a one true weakness of delicious chocolate chip cookie to be devoured in seconds. He remembers his manners and took another bit of his cookie. "They're really delicious Mrs. Wolf."

Harriet smiles, waving her hand in defense with little pride, feeling all her fears starting to wash away. "Oh thank you, you should try my daughter's, she loves to bake her own batch just in case she's babysitting the pups."

Amanda took one as well and takes a bit, savouring the flavor and lets out a satiflying moan. "They are good, you should try my brownies." she asked the werewolf wife and the women began to chat.

Clawrk stares at the conversation between Monster and Human, blinking if he was dreaming at all… but he is not. This is happening. An actual conversation is being made without any confrontation of threats nor hostility. The Alpha of his wolf family turns to Alister with a puzzling look. "Can I ask you something Mr. Bounds?"

"Please, Alister is alright," he said as he sips his own bottle of water. "Ask away, we are an open book."

"How… did you meet this…" Clawrk eyes the human family and back at the Minotaur.

"Ah," Alister puts the bottle down on the folding table and sits back with his hands together. "I assume you remember the Global Freeze Event?"

The conversation between Monster and Human stopped as the three words were said. Harriet features softened slightly, remember how she and her family experience the panic and fear to be forced into slow motion. "Who doesn't remember it?" she spoke as she was trying to run to her family to check on their safety but was held back by the massive slowdown.

"I met miss Beauty Queen here," Alister started getting a punch to the shoulder from his blushing wife, he would not have due to him one of the sturdier species… but internally he did feel his wife's mean hook. "shortly before the attack. We ran into each other when she, Chris, and her first husband, Adam, were on a family outing."

The wife of the Minotaur calms her blush as the dreaded memory of the attack resurfaced. "We were planning on having a small game of baseball, but we never got the chance." Amanda said sadly as the pain began to surface little by little, feeling useless at the time. "Alister and Adam tried to save us during the Freeze, but they were just knocked away like ragdolls. Adam didn't survive the attack." She looked like she was going to cry, only to have a gently hand is placed on her shoulder from her husband.

"I'm sorry for your loss." Clawrk said, surprising himself.

Chris felt in pain to witness his father his death, but did not want to dread memory for too long as it is bad for himself and helped in the conversation. "After the Freeze ended, we met up again by chance, and our relationship grew from there." He smiles as the memories when Alister came to their lives, how the Minotaur father made his mother smile again. Alister even built a new father and son relationship, all it took was a baseball tossed at on his lap to tear him away from playing too many video games. "Soon one thing led to another, we moved here to start our new life."

Clawrk and Harriet stared at their new neighbors with an amazed expression, from the Global Freeze event could cause either a dreadful aftermath, or something amazing. A family such as this welcomes both Monsters and Humans together. They wanted to say more, until their ears twitched upwards, hearing a familiar sound coming from the neighborhood in their direction. A loud howl is heard, causing the Bound family to looked confused and began to search the source.

"What was that?" Amanda spoke up as she scans the area.

Harriet and Clawrk sighed, "That would be our youngest pups getting into an argument, again." the wife said, but hears something else. "And that would be my second eldest daughter."

Chris raises his eyebrow now curious. "You can tell by their footsteps?"

"She an expert in the field on children." Clawrk smiles as his wife blushes with pride. "We raised them together, it is a handful, but we love our family so."

Just like Harriet said, a teen werewolf girl skid across the sidewalk of the new house not looking out of breath and looks at Clawrk and Harriet. Chris turns his head to the new arrival to get a good look of her. She is brown fur just like the Wolf couple he and his family are talking to, a long dark brown fluffed hair and pierced ears, she also seem to be wearing a designer jacket over a tiger striped black and pink shirt with a short purple skirt which complements the jacket, and completing the outfit, she wears pumps like boots with shows her clawed toes. "Mom, dad, the pups are teething again." she walks over Clawrk and Harriet, but her attention is turned to see the Human and Monster family. She paused for a moment and looks at her parents. "Um, these are our new neighbors right?"

Harriet nods and stood up with Clawrk following her as they walk to their daughter. "Yes, yes they are." she said and places her hand on her daughter's shoulder. "Clawdeen, these are our new neighbors, the Bounds family." she said and gestures her free hand to them as they stood and waved hello. "This is Alister Bound, and his wife Amanda Bound," and she then gestures to the son. "And this is their son, Christian Bound."

The stepson waves. "Just call me Chris, it's easier to remember." he said to the Werewolf family.

Alister looks at his custom made wrist watch and his eyes widened. "Woah look at the time, we better finish unpacking before it gets dark."

"Honey, the stove isn't working yet so I can't cook anything tonight." Amanda said, already sick of eating chips and junk food on the road. The Minotaur and Human son agreed with her, they need real food and fast.

Chris thought for a moment, and he had an idea. "How about I go into town and grab some take out?"

Alister and Amanda looked at each other with a worried expression, a Normie walking into a town filled with fearful Monsters. "Are you sure about that?" Amanda said. "This town may not like a Normie running around like all alone?"

Chris smiles with confidence, hopefully this will give him the opportunity to explore New Salem, not to mention some good food to eat. "I'll be fine, I saw a restaurant on the way here… I think?" He scratches the back of his head to try to remember.

Clawrk thinks for a moment, they seem nice enough, not to mention who would not want to see a family go hungry for the night. He turns to Clawdeen who is chatting with her mother, processing on what is happening. "Clawdeen." He hollers to his daughter.

The teen werewolf girl stops talking to her mother and walks over to her father. "Ya dad?"

"This young man here needs help finding a restaurant in town." Clawrk asks her daughter kindly, causing Clawdeen's eyes to widen a little before regaining her composure. "Just in case he gets lost, ok?"

"Dad, you realize he's a Normie, right?" She pointed with hand on her hip with her eyebrow raised. "Nothing good comes from them, they always cause trouble for us."

"Ok, ow." Chris crosses his arms with the insult digging into his skull. "Standing right here." But he was only ignored by the werewolf.

Clawrk rolls his eyes and leans to Clawdeen's ears and whispers, the Human teen raises his brow as he eyes on the father and daughter. When the alpha wolf of the family pulls back, the daughter looks at him. "You promise?"

"Only if you keep your promise." Clawrk said with a compromising voice, handing his daughter credit card from his wallet.

Clawdeen thinks for a moment as she taps her finger to her chin, she turns to her father with a grin. "Alright dad," she then turns to Chris and waves her hand while walking away. "Come on Normie boy, I'll show you the sweet spots to get some grub."

Chris rolls his eyes and follows the werewolf girl. "My name is Chris, it's a nickname with five letters."

"Whatever."

"Don't forget to pick up some food too, Mom said she's feeling for Zombese."

"Got it dad."

As the two teens left the adults to town, they then look at one another with Harriet about to leave. "I better help the kids get the pups under control," the mother wolf said. "Hopefully I can stop them before they tear up the sofa again." she then dashes off at full speed, leaving a trail of dust.

"I love that woman." Clawrk lets out a heart warming chuckle and turns to Alister. "Need help lifting anything heavy inside?"

Alister turns to the area and points with his thumb at the large furniture presented. "Most of it is in the garage but it is kind of packed with bed frames television stands. Just the sofa and we're good."

Clawrk rolls up his sleeves to preparing himself for the heavy lifting. "Lead the way."

As the teen Werewolf and human walk side by side in somewhat distant from one another to town, bystanders who walked or dove pass them stare at Chris with shock, discomfort, or scared. Clawdeen turns her head a little as she pays attention to where she is walking, "You seem used to being' stared at Normie."

Chris sighs as he rolls his eyes, ignoring everyone else who is staring and talking behind his back. "My name is Christian, or Chris, come on, it's only five letters." he stated, but looks at her to see the werewolf ignoring her. "To answer your question, yes, mom and I get stared at a lot back at Boo York."

Clawdeen listens in, getting to know him to be her friend or foe. "So what do you do?"

"Baseball, but I wasn't in any teams because I'm homeschooled part of the time so dad took me to the batting cages to practice my swings." The teen from Boo York explains his hobbies. "I read a lot of books, cook, watched dozens of car shows, learned boxing from a former champ next door." he said and thinks for a moment and turns to Clawdeen. "Can I ask you something?"

"Ask away meatbag." Clawdeen said with slight harshness, unable to trust a human bit by bit.

"Did you make your clothes yourself?"

The werewolf girl stops at her tracks, causing the human to stop as well to see her amber eyes looking at him with a raised brow. "How did you know that?" she said with confusion. "I never said anything about fashion to you?"

"I don't know, I just kind of assumed." Chris raises his hands in defense. "Your clothes seemed hand me downs but looked like they took into an extreme overhaud with skill."

"Oh I see?" Clawdeen let out a smirk as a glint had shine besides her eye with a devious look. "Was the little Normie Boo checking me out?" she said with a teasing voice.

"Wha-?" The Human sputters as his face is dressed in a red blush, shaking his head in denial. "No, no I wasn't!" he denies and tries to defuse the situation.

Back in Boo York during his homeschool routine, his parents go out to work while he is home alone doing nothing but read towers of books. His blessing and curse is his observation skills during the development. Counting the leaves on the home gardens at the small balcony as well doing some paintings to keep his mind busy to avoid the development of cabin fever. However, he gets into such detail he literally jots almost everything down into photographic memory and almost clear observation.

"Really?" The werewolf girl presses her advances as she leans forward to get closer to the humans face, satisfied to see him blushing up a storm. "Are you saying I'm not pretty?" she raises her brow.

"No, no, you're bea-PRETTY, a pretty Ghoul!" Chris stutters while he blushes, finding himself staring at her amber eyes, feeling allured to them but tries not to give in to her teasing temptations.

The Werewolf smirks, leaning back with a satisfying look on her face and turns around, leaving the Human to blink for a moment to get his thoughts together. However, both never noticed that instead of just being stared at by the bystanders, there was one particular monster watching them.

On one of the rooftops of a Pizza restaurant a certain Werecat was eating a slice of stolen pizza, enjoying the show to see the Normie follows the Monster. She had orange fur and red stripes, her hair orange and cut short which laps over her right eye as it is pattern like a tiger. She wore a leather jacket with spikes decorated on her collar, and a dark red and black shirt. The werecat also wears tattered and cut black pants over another set of thin pink sports shorts and leathered black pumps.

"Me~ow?" the Werecat watches from the rooftops, her eyes trained on Chris following Clawdeen as he was given a grand tour of the Monster District of New Salem. "Well, looks like things won't be so boring after all?" But what she does not know, is she is also being watched by a small, purple toy car which at the hood has a white ninja star printed.

"Oh Clawd, I wish she was here." A petit pale skin vampire with black pigtails with pale skin and pale purple eyes, wearing a black and pink clothing in a gothic sense high heeled shoes.

"Ughuuughugh." Said the zombie girl with large glasses as she is typing her laptop with the fastest fingers of the entire planet.

"Of course wish magic is real." An mummy with expensive clothing said with a gorgon teen boy next to her. "Except wishes may make things good, but also makes things worse."

"He has to help his sisters watch the little pups mate." A sea monster teen ghoul spoke out. "They said they're parents are taking care of things with some new neighbors."

"Love little furballs." A russian accented abominable snow girl said and hugs herself. "Like Yetis but tiny and a dozen of them."

"Hey, isn't that Clawdeen over there?" A green skin ghoul with stitches all over her body and mismatch eyes points to where the Werewolf, who is also followed… by… a…

"NORMIE?!"

"Right there is a Coffin Bean, the local coffee shop," Clawdeen points out the restaurants, cafes, and hang out spots for Chris to get around. "Over there is the Rising Dragon, a Zombese Restaurant, good place to get take out, we'll get that later on the way home."

"Wow, a lot of good places," The human observes the many shops, making a mental note to take a look at the bookstore. He could get used to a place like this without the enclosed concrete/brick walls, as well a good restaurant with his family ea-.

"LOOK OUT CLAWDEEN!" A voice screamed with panic and fear. The sharp senses of a wolf could not react fast enough to dodge a pale skinned, pink and red blur which tackled the Werewolf away from the human.

"What the heck?" Chris turns to the Werewolf girl dancing but more likely keeping herself from falling with a small girl on her waist held on for dear unlife.

"Draculaura!?" Clawdeen stood as she struggles to keep her balance up as the petite pale girl continues to cling like her unlife depends on it. "Get off me!"

"Don't worry my Beast Friend Forever, I'll save you from the Human!"

"Who-with-the-what-now?" Chris looks around for help but soon sees a fire elemental with… well… fire balls lit in his hands. The human could see a group of other different species of Ghouls and Boos behind the fire user. A Zombie girl with glasses on, a Mummy girl with expensive looking clothes, a mermaid, a Gorgan boy with sunglasses, a girl with pale blue skin and visible lower sharp jaws which could pose as an Yeti, courtesy of the snow floating around her. And a girl with green skin and stitches all over her body which pose as a Frankenstein.

"Stay away from the Ghoul, Normie!" the hotshot monster puffs his chest as well posing fighting stances which most look unbalance.

Chris raises both his hands in defense, looking at the group other than the fire user. "Wait, wait! I come in peace!?"

"Really?" The tall, muscular, Gorgon teen Boo walks up to him and stares down at the human. Comparing Chris's size to the monster, he is approximately about the height of the Gorgon's chin. A height disadvantage for the human, but size does not matter, there is always an alternative solution. "Why are you following Clawdeen then?" he said with a calm and chilled voice, as well a hint of better logical thinking than the fire user. However, he can feel the intimidation behind those shades when the black shades have two green faded balls of light, probably ready to turn the human to stone.

"He's my new… neighbor!" Clawdeen manages to peel off the vampire called Draculaura and manages to calm her down and defused the growing tensions. She walks next to the human with the petite vampire next to the Werewolf at a distance from human. "His step-dad's a minotaur and his mom's human," the entire group gasped in shock, as well with the Gorgon teen's snake hair's widened their eyes. "they just moved in recently and I'm showing him around the place."

The group minus the zombie stared at Chris and Clawdeen in utter shock and disbelief, it was a long pause when the Human looks at Clawdeen. "Um… does this kind of thing happen from time to time?"

Clawdeen shrugs and as she is entertained to see her friends in such a state, slightly making her like the Normie already. "Sometimes, but nothing like this."

"Huh?" Chris looks over to Clawdeen and back at the group. "It's like seeing them get smacked with a piranha." he said and waves his hand like he is slapping air.

For once, the werewolf girl agrees with the Normie, "Right?"

The zombie girl walks over to Chris who seems a little afraid but remembers the eating brains is a myth, preferring other food like steaks or burgers. The glasses wearing undead girl looks at him with curiosity and turns to Clawdeen. "Uuuuughuugh?"

"Oh he's harmless" Clawdeen understands the Zombie girl, "As far as I know." she smirks with a teasing wink at Chris which causes him to roll eyes with a slight pout.

The human normie looks around at the Ghouls and Boos and turns back to the werewolf teen girl. "So… they're you friends?"

"This bunch, yeah and many more at my school.." Clawdeen said as she and Zombie girl walks over. She waves her hand at the undead with glasses. "This is Ghoulia, she's the smartest ghoul you'll ever see in your unlife." she then turns to the rest of the group who are still stunned and processing to reboot their thoughts. "The overreacting bundle of joy here is Draculaura." she points at the petit vampire and waves off to the girl with stitches and mismatch eyes, another is some kind of humanoid sea sea monster with light blue scales and blonde hair, and lastly is a blue skin girl with white hair. "That's Frankie, Lagoona, Abby-," she stops when she sees the human raise his hand to politely interrupt. "Yes, Normie in the back of the room?"

"Quick question, is she a Yeti?"

"Uuuggghhhuughgh."

"Sorry, my zombie language is a tad rusty, what did she say?"

"Ghoulia said, an Abominable Snowgirl to be precise, there's a big difference, long story." Clawdeen continues her introduction of friends. "The elemental doofus here is Heath Burns, next to him is Deuce Gorgon, and the mummy girl is Cleo de Nile."

Chris took note as to make sure he remembers the names and who they are, he lets out a gentle wave in hopes to snap them out of their stunned trance. "Um… Nice to meet you all, my name is Christian Davis, Chris for short."

The stitched girl with bolts on her neck blinks several times as she now returns to reality. "...O...k…" she groans and looks at Clawdeen. "I think I got most of it out of my bolts." she hesitated as she slowly walks ot the human was something she fears most. The Franken monster girl held a shaking hand up to him. "I...I'm Frankie…" she introduced herself, "Nice to meet you."

The human lets out a smile and gently held the Franken girl's hand. "Likewise." when he was about to pull away, the hand stayed with his and detached from Frankie's forearm and began to crawl around. "Woah he-woo!" he stammers as the hand crawls around his body, trying his best to not panic but to find the hand which is now on his back.

"Sorry!" Frankie apologizes. "My hand sometimes pops out like that." she tries to help him get her hand back… but the hand has a mind of her own and continues exploring while crawling on the fingers.

Abby came in second after shaking her head, seeing the current situation and crosses her arms. "Frankie needs better stitches." she said as she raises her brow.

Clawdeen tries to find the hand as did Lagoona who got out of her stunned trance next as they surround him to find the invading hand on his body.

"She keeps forgetting, love, I'll write up the reminder for her," The blonde haired sea creature humanoid eyes on prize and shout out her hand.

"Ah!"

"Sorry," Lagoona blushes as she wishes to forget what she just grabbed.

Clawdeen's eyes move faster and sees the sentient hand crawling up to his head and quickly grabs it. "Gotcha!" the Werewolf girl then hands the appendage back to the owner.

"Thanks," Frankie she said and reattaches her limb back to her arm.

Deuce and Cleo the came back to reality as they see everyone now calming down, the royal mummy regains her high stature composure and walks up to them as stood has been standing a few feet from the human. "So tell me," she said as she does not seem slightly convince. "How did a Normie like you have a Minotaur father in the first place?"

Chris felt his heart struck to rehear the subject, he contained is emotions and spoke casually. "It's a… long story…"

The mummy huffs and crosses her arms, "I got time."

"Why not we celebrate the new mate with a cup of coffee?" Lagoona tries to break the tension. "Everyone looks like they need a drink."

Everyone looked at one another, none of them did not seem to argue nor disagree, a cup of coffee might be best.

Unnoticed by the gathering of monster teens and one normie, the same black and red Honda NSX drove around to act like a normal civilian doubles around and parks as it remains hidden. The driver pulls up his binoculars as he watches the group grabbing their respective coffin cups. "He's starting out pretty good." he said as he continues to watch, using his one hand to skillfully unwrap a piece of candy and pops it in his mouth. "Normally a human would panic and run away or do something violent?"

"As expected to have a step father of a minotaur," the device on the dashboard said. "Out of a million people in the world and we found the perfect candidate who has stepped in the shoes of a monster."

"Just hope this kind of peace could spread to the world." The driver agrees but has a slight doubt. "The impossible task is yet to come."

-0-0-0-0-

"I… I'm sorry," Cleo covered her mouth with her free hand as the other held an expensive looking cup of coffin. "I didn't mean t-?"

"It's… alright," Chris raised his hand in defense to allow the mummy to not have any regrets in her words. "It's all in the past, my… real dad is use to tell me, "It's alright to lose something, you can't get rid of the feeling, you live with it and move on."." He could not help but smile happily at the joyful memories he held. He looks up to the group and held an assuring expression. "So, how did you all meet?"

"At our school, Monster High," Draculaura said as she felt comfortable with the Normie now, even though there are some who tried to destroy her family, but that's all in Transylvania. However, now knowing Chris's full history, she seems to slightly understand to be… different.

The Normie of the group looks with a puzzled expression and raises his brow. "Monster High…" he asked, "I remember reading about it being a school for all kinds of monsters?"

"That's right dude," Deuce said as he takes a sip of his own coffin as he said close to Cleo. "Which school did you go to?"

"I'm… homeschooled," Chris admits with slight detest. "Since my new step father came into our lives, I can't go to a normal school in Boo York." he shrugs off the memories. "So, we're here now, starting our new lives."

"Interesting," The abominable snow girl drank her cool drink as Heath is next to her. "Must be difficult to live like that."

The Normie pauses for a moment, remembering the blood in his knuckles and the ogres he fought with no trace of memory of a how or why. Chris blinks and kept his composure straight and spoke normally, "It has its ups and downs…" he pushes that subject aside. "But we make it work."

"I still can't believe your dad was Adam Davis, a rookie major league baseball player?" Heath obliviously spoke out, only to earn a smack in the back of his head by the abominable snowgirl.

"That's what's on you're mind?" Clawdeen interjects at the elemental and looks at the Normie with her amber alluring eyes. "I think it's very sweet, and it's completely normal to all of us."

"T-thanks." Chris slightly stutters as he tries his best not to stare at them. He diverts his eyes to his wrist watch and his expression slightly shocked. "We better grab the food before sundown."

"Right, gotcha," The Werewolf girl stands up as the Normie follows. "I'll see you guys at school tomorrow."

Before the could leave, a pulse of energy emitted across the town, everything began to slow down but the minds of sentient beings were at normal speed.

Clawdeen tripped from the way out. "...What's… happening…?"

"This… is…" Chris struggles… his mind began replaying the memories he had felt. But when he turns his head… he saw what he wished would never return.

The slow motion wave hit even to the orange werecat, struggling to even to move to get up and peers over the ledge. "Global...Freeze?..."

-0-0-0-0-

"Shinnosuke!" The device on the dashboard said.

Inside the NSX seem to be immune to the effects of the slow motion. "I'm on it." The driver said and pulls out something from the glove compartment, pulling out some kind of large belt buckle with the face plate similar to an analog speedometer and the strap is similar to a seatbelt.

… The Androids…

The very same mechanical beings which had cause the pain of almost billions of beings across the planet and the thousands of people, if not more, killed during the Global Freeze Event. There were a total of three of them to be precise, as the two have pushed away cars or carts, the third follows them as if it was the leader of the group. Oddly enough, the assumed leader was wearing sunglasses.

"Hmmph, let's hope what I'm looking for is here. I'm getting sick and tired of all those failures." The third android spoke out loud with disgust as he took off the sunglasses and crushed them to prove his point. If one was looking they would see a plate which read 029.

"There should be at least one here," said the first one after kicking away another car, this one smashing through a hopefully empty building. Its plate indicated it as 042.

The second one grabbed and lifted a motorcycle and tosses it aside as it's plate reveals his number of 088. "That's what you said last time, then all of a sudden, I'm the one getting the blame!" He said turning to the first one… only to get hit by his boss.

"That's because you are a moron." Roidmude 029 spoke, "Seriously, only two Roidmudes haven't gotten started and I'm the only one close enough to evolving?"

Roidmude 042 looks at the Coffee Shop to see a Werewolf and Human nearly tripping as they try to get back inside. "Hey boss, what about that one!" he said and points with his mechanical fingers at the Werewolf girl.

"Maybe, haven't tried going after Monsters." The third Roidmude said and walks to her, deliberately shoving aside any bystanders. He sees the human in front of him as he is now between is objection. "Move meatbag." he smacked Chris aside to a wall, causing him to fall on the couch of the Coffin Shop and drops to the ground. He groans and could only watch, the Roidmude walking closer to Clawdeen who tries to back away, but due to the feeling of this slow motion… it is impossible for her to run away even with her speed. Her friends tried to run to her, but the effect is still the same for being under the influence of the heavy pressure on their bodies. The menacing android grabs the Weregirl by her neck and pulls her time, letting out a menacing laugh after getting a better look at her. "I FOUND IT, this is what I've been searching for quite some time." the Roidmude said as it copied Clawdeen's form, while increasing its grip on her neck while he watches the Werewolf girl struggles free. The human tries to run at the android as best as he could, but he could not as he is stuck in slow motion… but the toy car in his pocket blinks its headlights as if it was waking from its slumber. "Now I'll achieve my greatest evoluti-!"

"LET HER GO!" someone yelled as Roidmude 029 got a facefull of fist, forcing her to release her captive as she flew backwards.

The Data Mimicry of Clawdeen the Roidmude had projected fell, and the Slowdown it created also falling away because of its broken concentration. "Who hit me?!" 029 said furiously, 'glaring' at the person who punched him, only to see the human he tossed aside earlier and held Clawdeen in his arms to help her stand up.

The human walks in front of her as his full attention is now upon the Roidmude with an angry expression which he is choosing to fight than flight. "Touch her again, and I'll do more than just that light tap!" Chris said as he raised his injured fist, however, he internally screams in pain as those machines were actually a lot durable than they look. 'OH GODS THAT FREAKING HURT!'

"He moved during a Heavy Acceleration?" 088 said, getting hit again. "OW!"

"I can see that! More importantly, HOW DARE HE STRIKE MY PERFECT FACE!"

"The only perfect thing about you is your cruelty and narcissism!" Chris did not hesitate and delivers another heavy punch to the android's face causing it to fumble on the ground. The human quickly turns to Clawdeen and her friends. "Go, get your friends out of here while I hold it off."

Clawdeen rubs some of the soreness out of her neck and sees Chris getting ready to fight them. "But-?"

"Go!" The human grabbed the nearest debris which he can hold in hand and found a left over pipe from the recent destruction. He quickly picks it up and charges at one of the Roidmudes and starts hitting them while trying to stay on the move from either getting grabbed or hit.

"Let's get out of here guys!" Heath shrieks out in fear and runs off before anyone could grab him.

Cleo agrees with the elemental, but not without her friends and pulls on Deuce's arm, "We need to go, now!"

"No!" Clawdeen shouts at everyone and prevents them from panicking. The werewolf girl had just met the nor - no - human, Chris saved her from those mechanical fiends, he is better than any Normie she had ever heard or known her entire life. "I'm not leaving Chris behind!" Before she could turn around to help, she was stopped when a black and red honda NSX drives by them and charges at the Roidmudes at full throttle.

As Roidmude 29 finally grabbed the human by his shirt and lifts him up, watching him struggle and kick him which was futile. "You've just ruined my day pipsqueak." he spat out as another kick had landed on his face. "Er! That's it!" he rears back his hand to deliver a deadly blow, but a set of laser bolts separates the both of them.

Chris rolls on the ground away from the fight, he looks up see the vehicle circling around and rams through Roidmudes 042 and 088, sending them flying as it drifts around and sent Roidmude 029 with the rest of the androids. The black and red car makes a halt as if angled on the streets to cut off the Roidmude from the people of the town, the door opens from the right side to reveal a clean combed and gelled black haired human male in his late 40s-early 50s, he wore a black suit and white dress shirt underneath, a red tie around his neck. The man named Shinnosuke wears a strange speedometer belt and a strange looking device on the wrist. The newly arriving human turns to Chris with a determined look and nods. "I'll take it from here young man, get to safety." He turns back at the humanoid machines fearlessly and pulls out a six shooter revolver and aims at the Roidmudes and fired immediately.

This caused Roidmude 042 to cringe back as he was the one who got shot. Both his hands grabbed where he was shot and cries out. "OW! WHAT HIT ME?!"

"He's hurt? Nothing the Humans or Monster make should be able to hurt us." Roidmude 088 was then smacked in the head again by 029.

"Idiots, get him!" The leader of the bunch orders the two, only for them to get shot in the head with precise accuracy. It did not finish them, but whatever was in those bullets really did hurt them alot.

"Go now!" The man said as he kept firing his revolver, popping the wheel out and quickly reloads and fires another volley.

Chris could not move as he could only watch him fight against the Roidmudes, only for the werewolf girl runs to him, shaking his shoulder for him to snap out of it to see Clawdeen's amber eyes. "Let's go, we can't stay here." she said as the rest of the monsters nodded and began to leave. The human was about to follow with Clawdeen about to leave as well, only to be stop for his front pocket. Chris quickly digs it out only to see the same red toy car he picked up earlier today blinks its yellow headlights. Clawdeen looks back to see her new human neighbor admiring a toy in his hand. "Chris-?" the tiny car let out a tiny honk and flew out of the humans hands which lands on a highway track which appeared out of thin air. The werewolf girl watches the car coming from the human with confusion and awe. "What the?" the tiny car honked once more, as if telling the both to stay. His attention now is upon the fight between the strange man who saved him and the three Roidmudes.

The man bobs and weaves, and dodges the incoming fire from the Roidmudes after using their fingertips as makeshift pistols. The driver stops and gets up as he assumed that all the civilians had left. "Heh, let's get serious." he said and pockets the pistol.

This confused the Roidmudes enough that they stopped attacking. "What's he doing?" Roidmude 042 questions as he points with his finger.

"Is he going to surrendering?" Roidmude 088 remarks only to be smacked in the back of the head by Roidmude 029. Again.

The man pulls out a strange small toy car which Chris and Clawdeen recognize to see it similar to the human's, only instead of red, his is black with a red line. They watched Shinnosuke twists the rear body of the car to act as if it was turned into a handle, he takes it in his right hand and attaches it to the device. He twists a key on the belt, upon hearing an upbeat jazz music coming from the device, he waves his arms around and outstretches his left arm to his right side as his other hand rests near the upper arm. "Henshin!" he guides his right hand, pushing and pulling the car as if it were a lever.

The belt ceased its music but a holographic like while surrounds him as it spreads to release black and red metallic armor and attaches to his body, as helmet which has a spoiler on top and for a visor has headlights.

"DRIVE! TYPE: SPEED!"

The sound of upbeat jazz music lights up the headlight like visor as the belt announced his type. Chris is amazed how the human who recently rescued him, now looks like the warrior was saved years ago in Boo York. The Roidmudes are stunned and shocked as fear began to show in their mechanical body language. "K-Kamen Rider?"

Clawdeen's eyes could only widen so much to watch a human transform before her eyes. "W-What the heck?"

"Kamen… Rider?" Chris begins to understand, after being cooped up in his home, he studied Japanese, or Goblenese in Monster slang, before just to watch the foreign animated shows. Masked Rider in the Fanglish/English language.

"Well, looks like you have seen a ghost," The black and red armored Rider said, he took a slight squat and leans on his left knee. "Your all coming along… for a ride!" The black and red circuit Rider charges at the three Roidmudes and initiates the attacks. The car themed armored warrior strikes with a left hook to 042 to send him sprawling and redirects a roundhouse kick to 088 to shove the second Roidmude aside in order to face off against 029. The leading droid who tried to copy Clawdeen, extends his fingers upon the approaching Kamen Rider in attempt to shoot him with his finger tip guns, but was easily dodge as Shinnosuke bobs left and right with the bullets only missing a centimeter from his armor. The Kamen Rider closes the distance, letting out a powerful jab upon the chest of Roidmude 029, quickly following up with a grab of the androids wrist and shoulder throws him to fumble with 088. Shinnosuke was about to advance, only to be tackled by 042, grappling one another as they stood and continued on to a fist fight.

The leading Roidmude, 029, gets up, grabbing 088 to force his lacky to stand up. "Get in there!" he kicks 088 into the fight. Frustrated, angry, and hatred, he ruined his quest of evolution, all because of these interruption. 029 growls with his 'teeth' clenched and tightened fists, unleashing a mighty roar upon the heavens which everyone stopped and looked at the enraged Roidmude. A surge of purple energy had burst out from his body, causing a mass change to his body into a stronger, thicker body with bulkier arms. He lets out a grunt of frustration as he flexes his synthetic mechanical muscles of his now blue frame. "Not a bad build, but I need more!" he said and rolls his arm and sees Shinnosuke kicking away 042 and meets sees each other. "I'm going to kill you, and then that human too so I can get that werewolf girl to complete my evolution." he clashes his fists together with enough power to create fresh metal sparks.

Shinnosuke looks over at the changed Roidmude. "He evolved!" he said and punches 042 away and tries to rush to 029, but was engaged in combat by 088. The Kamen Rider's hands are getting full and the situation is worsening, he needs to restrategises. "I need Door-Ju and Handle-Ken!"

Chris watches the car themed Kamen Rider battle against the Roidmudes with all his might, seeing how proficient and skilled he is. But he then sees the Roidmude who tried to attack Clawdeen started to evolve and see the black and red NSX launching from its frame a gun which resembles a side door of a car and a broad sword with a blue edge and a guard on the handle. The black and red Kamen Rider quickly grabbed the range weapon in his left hand and the melee sword to his right and fended off against 042 and 088.

Kamen Rider grunts with frustration, but a determination to fight to his end as he adjusts his grip with his sword. "I won't let you!" he fires a few rounds at the newly evolved Roidmude.

The evolved Roidmude 029 chuckles as a few bolts of energy from the Door-Ju hit his body and endures the attacks. "That tickles," he taunts and hefts his heavy looking fists up. "My turn." he rushes upon the black and red Kamen Rider, swinging his fists upon Shinnosuke ducked and dodged the attacks, but was unlucky for a fourth punch to the chest. The punching power from this Roidmude was strong enough to send him flying across the street to crash into an unoccupied car. 029 laughs in trumpet as he examines his own fists along with two of his lackys, 042 and 088 recovered from their earlier fight walked to his side. "I'm not just number 029 anymore, I'm Iron Roidmude!" he introduces himself and looks at Shinnosuke who pry himself from the car and struggles to stand. "I'll be the first to kill a Kamen Rider!" he rushes again with his lackys behind him.

Chris clenches his fists as he sees his savior being ganged up by the menacing androids responsible for the hundred thousand lives lost to the Global Freeze Event. His attention is turned to the small red car beeping and moving back and forward furiously, as if it was pointing at the NSX car. The human quickly runs to the car with the mini red car behind him.

"Where are you going?" the werewolf girl watches the human runs off to the black and red NSX.

"Oye! Young man!" Chris's eyes turned to see the dashboard of the car to see the same speedometer like belt used by the officer from earlier. The center of the frame to see a digital face as if it has an artificial intelligence. "What are you doing!"

The human remembers how the human officer transformed using the belt, he then sees the same wrist device just below the dashboard next to the shift stick. "I need your help!" Chris ignores the protesting talking belt and grabs the both of them, glad it was permanently latched or stuck, he exits out of the car and sees the situation again to see the Kamen Rider being held by 088 and being attacked by 042 and Iron Roidmude. However, from where he could tell some of the punches were purposely hitting 088.

Clawdeen sees Chris grabbing a device from the car, not liking the idea of where this is going. "What are you doing?!"

"No, don't! Your body won't be able to handle the transformation!"

"I don't care! I was helpless during the first attack, and I refuse to let anyone else important to me die!" Chris says as he fastens the belt around his waist, and fastens the second smaller device on his wrist. The human sees the red tiny sports car zooming around, flying off its tracks and was quickly caught in his hands. He flips the red car into a shift-like form and inserts it into the… whatever-it-is on his wrist, and flips it forward. He expects armor to form over him, and for pain to accompany it, but nothing happens.

Shinnosuke froze as he stares at Chris, the Roidmudes he was tangling with tilt their heads in confusion. "Eh?" the fighting group said in unison.

"What?" Clawdeen's ears flopped down with a confused expression on her face.

"Huh?"

"You need to turn the Ignition Key first." the belt said with an embarrassed emoticon.

"Oh," Chris looks down at the belt, and turns the red key, he first hears the engines starting up, then upbeat jazz music follows as if it is in standby which he begins to understand. "Ok, let's try this again." he grabs the car on his wrist device again. "HENSHIN!" he shifts the car forward and back, the screen where Krim Steinbelt's face sat changed into a wheel and forms into an R, a combination of K for Kamen, R for Rider, and D for Drive.

"Drive!" The face screen changes again to an S symbol. "Type Speed!"

This time, a black metal frame armor had formed and fitted on the human, but as it did, electricity surged off wildly around his body. Chris doubles over in pain as more and more electricity flew through the air.

"Young man!" Krim yells in fear as Chris staggers a bit before he clenches his fists in defiance.

"Chris!" Clawdeen covers her mouth with her hands, her face expressed shock and fear to see her neighbor hurting which she could feel in her soul aching just by watching.

"No matter how much pain it gives me. No matter how much I suffer!" Memories of his the Global Freeze Event flashed before him. "I-!" the destruction of Boo-York and New York caused by the attacking Roidmudes. "I-!" His father's death by a Roidmude. "I WANT TO SAVE EVERYONE!" he screams, causing the headlights of the car occupying the wrist device to shine brightly. He crosses his arms and releases, breaking the electricity off as the armor's color change from black to red. The black NSX's left front tire quickly creates a black and a tire forms over the red stripe, reading Type Speed.

The werewolf teen watches in awe to her new neighbor just transformed like the other human had done before. Only she began to admire the color and detail of the armor Chris is now wearing. "W-what?"

"Woah." The orange striped Wearcat watches shock and awe to see a Normie transformed into something… strange… at first the human was in pain from a surge of energy, but broke away to transform into an armored warrior, in such a better style and more upgraded than the black armored rider.

The Roidmudes and Shinnosuke looked at shocked to see the transformation now complete. For the Rider however took this opportunity and punches one of the stunned machines when to break away from an headlock. "Nani? Kare wa henshin shita?" he spoke in Japanese and the battle continues.

Krim's virtual eyes widened from the shock to see the transformation finished, thinking to himself as he tries to figure out how and why. 'What? The Type Speed Shift Car, completed itself?'

"It doesn't matter if you've become another Kamen Rider, I've achieved perfection, my Evolution!" Roidmude 029 says as his attention is turned to the second rider and charges at Chris. The new Kamen Rider quickly ducks out of the way, quickly adjusting his stance and grabs him from behind. "What the?"

"My turn!" Chris lifts Iron Roidmude from the ground and throws him aside, making the evolved android to crash into a large truck. His eyes are then trained to see 042 and 088 who is still holding Shinnosuke back, Chris charges at them and reels his right arm back. "Hey Rider man, duck!" he warned as he extends his arm to Roidmude 088, the first rider reacted fast enough to free himself.

Roidmude 088 fumbles when Shinnosuke is freed from his grasp, only to look up to see the rampaging Red Rider "Eh?" He was soon slammed with a lariat attack.

Chris soon sent him slamming on the ground, grabbing him to force him standing at pursue his attack. "You're not done yet!" he roars with let loose rage and punches 088 as the both of them continue to fight one another.

Shinnosuke got up and to see Chris battling with Roidmude 088, slightly impressed but also confused and slightly scared. "Interesting?" but he was interrupted when 042 grabbed him from behind.

"You let your guard down~!" The ambushing Roidmude cackles with glee.

"Wanna bet?" The black and red rider quickly turns the Ignition Key on his belt and grabs the car on his wrist device, shifting it three times.

"SP-SP-SPEED!"

Roidmude 042 looked confused when he sees the red circuits on the armor began to glow with built up energy."Wha-?" he soon found himself being carried and thrashed around in super speed.

In Clawdeen's point of view she could only see a black and red blue with squealing passenger until they collided to a car, but her eyes then see the Iron Roidmude bursting out of the truck and ripping what appears to be clothes off his body. But what scares her even more was the Roidmude is looking at her, making the werewolf girl to step back when 029 approaches to her. "Oh no." she squeaks until her back meets the wall of a store.

Chris pins 088 to a lampost, letting out his raging memory filled fists at the android over and over his face. A scream is heard which he quickly described was from Clawdeen, his angry instantly dropped and turns his head to see his neighbor about to be grabbed by 029. "Clawdeen!" he tosses his opponent away and runs to save the werewolf monster.

"You won't make it!" Mr. Belt advised the new Rider of the situation. "Twist the Ignition Key and shift the Type: Speed forward, it will enhance the type of power we are currently using!"

"Got it." Chris said as he turns the key and flips the Speed Shift Car three times. Causing the belt to react as the S symbol is formed and changes to a spinning tire.

"SP-SP-SPEED!"

The tire attached to his armored body begin to rotate furiously like the engines have been charged from 0-60 in 3.5 second. "Wo-WOAH!" he found himself moving faster than before and closes the distance between 029 and Clawdeen and himself.

"Come here sweetheart," demands the evolved Roidmude as he was about to grab the now feared werewolf girl. "You're going to help me evolve even furt-GAH!" 029 soon felt a red and black missile crashed on his side, sending him flying to a lampost which broke his fall and tumbles down to the sidewalk.

The Roidmude number 088 shakes his head and sees his leader being crashed aside by the new Rider. "Boss!" he tries to run to him and help but was collided by a flying ally known as 042.

"Your fight is with me!" Shinnosuke held up his sword and battles the lackys.

Chris himself groans as he was rolls to Clawdeen's feet, now on his knees held his aching shoulder. "I thought this armor was suppose to protect me from harm?"

The belt's emoted to a plain expression. "Yes it does, but there no such thing as full invulnerability young man," it says.

"Is that belt talking?" Clawdeen broke out with a relief to be saved by Chris… in an unexpecting way… but could not help but notice the talking belt.

"How rude." The center speedometer emoticon to be angry. "My name is Krim Steinbelt to you young lady."

"How is this important in the current situation?" Chris stood on his feet while talking to them, but he sees Iron Roidmude getting up.

The evolved Roidmude roars with pure anger, flexing his arms just for his opponent to see them extending for longer reach. "I've had enough of you!" He reels his left arm back and lashes out in Chris's and Clawdeen's direction.

Chris's instincts flared immediately, "Watch out!" turning to Clawdeen and held her to his armored body in order for both of them to duck. The arm from Iron Roidmude stretches with great distance, nearly hitting them as the fists punches a hole through the brick wall where the werewolf hand originally stood. The new Kamen Rider looks up at the hole made by Iron Roidmude, he then turns his head to see 029 advancing with his right arm reeling back for another attack. "Hold on!" he held Clawdeen in his arms as if she is the bring and dashes off to avoid another stretched punch.

Clawdeen held on with her arms wrapped around her knight in red armor and her head nesting on his neck. She could not help but blush in this situation but noticed that Chris was too busy to know of his actions. She soon sees the both of them are next to the black and red NSX, as Chris opens the door and puts her in the passenger seat. "Hey, what are y-." she protests but was soon the door closes on her.

"Stay here!" Chris assures her for the werewolf's own safety and turns to Iron Roidmude, but was met with another stretch punch attack and was flung back while rolling on the hood of the car.

"Chris!" Clawdeen tries to get out to help him, but the car seems to have a mind of its own and locks the doors. "No, let me out!"

"Ow." he groans and shakes his head, on the road of the other side of the car. "What a punch?" he gets up but forgot he was dealing with 029 tilting his head to quickly avoid another stretched punch. "Yikes!" he rolls to the side away from the car for the Roidmude to avoid his neighbor, well he did make him angry enough that he is already a red flag to a raging bull.

"Young man!" Krim calls out from the belt.

"My name's Christian Davis." he ducks another punch as he tries to attack an opening, but no avail when he was then thrown aside to a pile of pillows spilled from a loading truck. "Oh? Fluffy?" but the mood broke as he rolled away from a stretched punch which collides to the bed furniture to create an explosion of feathers.

"Chris," Krim said again to gain his attention, "You're not fighting alone, you have allies as well."

"Allies?" Chris was confused at what the belt had said, but his ears picked up a set of tiny car horns approaching. "Wha-?" he sees two sets of tracks is made from thin air, seeing a red and fire themed car and a green spike car fly towards to Iron Roidmude.

"What the-?" he soon sees the tiny fire car setting itself on fire and crashes on 029's head for him to flinch back. "Ow!" but the attack was not finished when the green car's body is covered in spike and slams upon Iron Roidmude to make him fall on the ground with a groan.

"Woah?" Chris astonished to see such small small packages to come in big sizes. He sees the two cars riding on the mid air track and flew to his right waist to attach themselves to what appears to be a holder. "Talk about a cavalry calling."

"Quickly, turn the Ignition Key and change the Shift-Car from the Shift -Brace to the fire one." Krim quickly instructs the new Rider.

"Wha-oh." Chris twists the Ignition Key again to hear the upbeat jazz music, pulling out the current Shift-Car as Krim describes them and quickly swapping with the fire Shift-Car with a flick of his finger to turn it into shift mode. "Like this?" He pushes the car in and shifts it forward and back like a lever.

"TIRE KOUKAN:-!" The belt announced loudly.

Chris looks down at the belt but translates from Japanese to English. "Tire Change?" he looks up just to see Iron Roidmude getting up.

"You annoying scrap heap!" he charges at the red Kamen Rider again.

"Look out!" Clawdeen cries out and bangs the interior windshield, but with no avail as she could not do anything but watch. The werewolf girl then sees the car's left front wheel creating another wheel, launching a fire printed wheel at the new Kamen Rider. "I got to do something?" she looks around the interior of the car for anything.

"Woah!" Chris ducked from punch and rolls on the ground, he kneels but sees the fire wheel flying around and replaces his current tire on his body with an orange fire like wheel.

"-MAX FLARE!" Krim announces while the background plays an electric guitar.

"...Cool." the red Kamen Rider now amazed but remembers he is in a middle of a fight. "Let's try you out!" he raises both hands in a boxing stance and advances forward. As the Iron Roidmude repositions himself, he reels his arms again and attacks with his stretching arms, but were dodged by the red Rider dodging with minimal movement asides from dashing forward. Again and again the elastic fists try to it the car themed Rider, but were bobbed and weaved so easily. Soon 029 found Chris in front of him face to face with a left clench fist about to strike. "You're nowhere close as my old neighbor!" his fists ignited in fire and clams to the Roidmudes face, leaving a large burn mark and staggers, but he's not done yet. "Ora!" he punches again with his left. "ORA!" he punches right. "ORA! ORA! ORA!" a left, left, right combo with flaming knuckles which causes even more damage and staggers him back.

Iron Roidmude was backed up to an empty car, an idea popped in his mechanical brain and lifts the car with ease. "Take this!" he threw the car at his opponent.

"Christian!"

"I'm on it!" Chris twists the Ignition Key and shifts the car on his Shift-Brace three times like before.

"FL-FL-FLARE!"

A wheel of fire is created in his right hand, reeling back his arm and raise his left leg like he was playing baseball pitcher. "Yah!" he drops his leg and follows the momentum and threw the fire wheel like a baseball. The fire wheel collides with the car which exploded in contact, however, Chris sees Iron Roidmude rushing through the smoke, caught of guard and was blocking the longer reach fists. "Let's change it up." He rolls back from 029's range and quickly swaps to the green spiked car after twisting the Ignition Key.

"TIRE KOUKAN:-!" A new tire is printed and replaces the Max Flare while, now with a green tire with a single row of spikes with a dubstep music was played. "FUNKY SPIKE!" However, unable to test the wheel Chris currently wears as Iron Roidmude catches him with his elastic arms, "What th-?" he was pulled to him and was caught in a tight bear hug.

"I'm going to squeeze the life out of you!" Declares the evolved Roidmude and tightens his hold with all his might, hearing him the red Kamen Rider groan in pain.

Shinnosuke slashes 042 and blasts 088 away, but sees Chris in a tight situation. "Kid!" he tries to interfere but was cut off as a volley of shots were made by the two Roidmudes he was fighting.

"Don't interrupt the boss!" 088 declares as he stood between the black and red Kamen Rider and the struggling fight.

Chris grits his teeth and looks down to his python gripped opponent, hearing him laugh with coming triumphant. "You saved a girl, but no one else is going to save you!" he cackles more with victory near his grasp.

*BANG!*

"OW!" Iron Roidmude flinches and releases his grip when sparks were flying on his back. "Who did that!?" he turns to see Clawdeen out of the car… and what no one would expect was in her hands is a shotgun which originated from the NSX car she was in. "YOU?!"

"Clawdeen's out of th-... wait... YOU'RE OUT OF THE CAR?!" Chris rolls on the ground his knees, just to see his werewolf neighbor, seeing but still not believing.

"She must have broken the door to pry it open?" Krim stated as his link with the car stated an interior damage of the inner door handle was broken with. "Should have expected much from a werewolf's strength factor?"

042 was blasted away by Shinnosuke's gun but sees the tables turning for his leader and sees the werewolf girl. "WHAT!? SHE'S MOVING IN HEAVY ACCELERATION!"

"THAT'S BECAUSE WE DIDN'T PULL OUT T-GAH!" 088 stated the situation before he was interrupted by a slash.

"Don't finish that sentence!" Shinnosuke roars and continues to tangle with the Roidmude lackys.

Clawdeen smirks and pumps the shotgun in her hand to eject the used shell and inserts a new round in the barrel. "Consider this, payback!" she said and takes aim again, pulling the trigger firing whatever this gun was loaded with but seems to deal considerable amount of damage as the pellets hit Iron Roidmude's head with great precision, causing him to flinch and double over in pain.

"Not the face!" 029 cries out in agony as his vision is temporary blinded.

Krim quickly examines the situation and quickly advices his new Rider. "Christian, now's our chance!"

"R-right," Chris shook away from the sudden shock and twists the Ignition Key and shifts the car.

"SP-SP-SPIKE!"

The tire spins rapidly and a spry of green spikes are launched at 029 to deal a larger amount of damage. The tire ceased, giving the red rider the opportunity to punch the evolved roidmude three times before kicking him away to the middle of the road.

Roidmude 088 finally grabbed Shinnosuke again as Roidmude 042 cracks his knuckles. "Time to end this for good."

Chris stops his advancement and sees the situation of the first rider is now in, Krim's eyes widened form his belt with fear and shock. "SHINNOSUKE!"

-0-0-0-0-

From the rooftops of the pizza shop, Toralei continues to watch the battle from above, only to see the battle is going both sides but in a losing situation for the armored warriors. But a track was created next to her, only for the werecat's eyes to quickly glimpse a purple toy car riding on it and zooms to the fight.

-0-0-0-0-

Shinnosuke struggles from his captives grasp and watches 042 coming closer with a reeling fist, only to see purple energy made shurikens fly and stab at his attackers. "Nani?" he spoke in Japanese but quickly elbows 088 to be freed from his grasp, looking up to the newly made track and a purple car only familiar to the black Kamen Rider and the belt. "Arigato, Midnight Shadow." he smiles inside his helmet and throws 088 to 042 and quickly recovers his Door-Ju and fires off several rounds upon them.

"Another friend?" Chris said as his hands are full with Iron Roidmude and quickly kicks him away.

"Yes," Krim emotes a smile of relief. "Quickly, change tires with Midnight Shadow to even the odds."

"Got it," Chris looks up at the approaching purple reinforcement and catches him with his right hand. "You're riding with me." he said and swaps Funky Spike, twisting the Ignition Key to change tires once more.

"TIRE KOUKAN: MIDNIGHT SHADOW!" a purple tire is loaded in his armor with the signature music was a Shamisen strum with the sound effects of a slicing sword. Chris waste no time and twists the Ignition Key again and shifts the car three times again. "SH-SH-SHADOW!" in a split second, two images blurred out to create 2 clones of the red Kamen Rider.

"You thinking what I'm thinking?" Prime Chris said as all three of them huddled up.

"We're you," said the first clone.

The second clone smacks his wind with his fist together "Divide and conquer!"

"BREAK!"

The red Kamen Rider triplets break up to fight each Roidmude, as 029 is tangling with the real Chris as he was still trying to recover his sights, 042 and 088 were grabbed and broke the fight from Shinnosuke by the clones.

"You're getting the hang of this," the first rider stated as the clones threw the lackys to tumble to the ground with Iron Roidmude in the bottom.

The second clone shrugs with his hands. "I don't know."

"I'm just doing what you're doing." the first one bluntly said.

"Get off!" Iron Roidmude orders his lackys as they struggle to get up.

"Swap to Speed Shift-Car and press the button on the Shift-Brace."

"Got it," Chris swaps tires to Type: Speed once more, but pauses for a minute and looks down at the belt. "Wait what?"

Shinnosuke pats the new rider to gain his attention. "Like this," he said and and twists the Ignition Key of his own belt, his right ring pressing the red button on the side of the Shift-Brace.

"HISSATSU!" The speedometer of the belt changes to a charging sequence.

"Oh," Chris did the same as he twists the Ignition Key and presses the button on his Shift-Brace.

"HISSATSU!"

The black and red NSX began to drive itself, quickly drifting to Clawdeen who found herself in the driver's seat of the car. "Again!?" She cries out in frustration, but only to see the situation of the car circling the Riders.

As the three Roidmudes struggle to get on their feet, they then see four spinning tires surrounding them. "W-what the heck!" but found themselves crushed together and trapped by they large wheels.

"What is happening!?" 042 shouts in anguish.

Chris and Shinnosuke shift the cars on their Shift-Braces to finalize their attack.

"FULL THROTTLE: SPEED!"

The red and black armored Kamen Riders jumped on the circling speeding NSX, bouncing off with extreme rebound. At the same time, the spinning wheels ejected out the three roidmudes to the center of the circling car, but soon found them stuck as the riders kicked and rebound repeatedly. Inside the NSX, Clawdeen's hands were on the steering wheel and her foot slamming the gas pedal to the floor. In Toralei's position and point of view, she begins to see the pattern for both Shinnosuke and Chris to create an R symbol while bouncing off from the car and at the Roidmudes. With one more rebound, both Chris and Shinnosuke bounced off together and kicked the three Roidmudes, causing a massive explosion in the middle. The Kamen Riders skid across the street as the NSX drove to their side.

In the middle of the explosion, two floating numbers of 042 and 088 ascend to the sky, only to shudder and explode as if it was a sign of finalize their destruction.

Chris pants heavily, removing the Shift-Car from his Shift-brace and takes off the belt to deactivate the armor. In his current state he has a bruise on his left cheek and a busted lip as well some bleeding knuckles. He turns to see Clawdeen who was exiting the car while leaving the shotgun behind, smiling as she was not hurt at all. "Cla-." he stopped when the werewolf embraces him with a hug as her face is planted to her chest for him unable to see her face. "W-wha-?"

"Shut up!" her voice muffles as she hid her worrying state from the Normie. "D-don't you ever do something like that again!" she loosens her grip but only to look down to show her sudden and worrying expression to have tears starting to form. "H-how am I going to tell your parents about this?"

Chris could only look down on his new neighbor, remembering how she was harsh on him when he arrived and being human, when time grew, they started to get to know one another. But with a battle for life or death, all he ever wanted was to save those he cared for… even her. He smiles as his arms embraces to her, but his hands are full by holding the Krim and the Shift-Car. "Promise me you won't tell them," he said to her, "and I won't tell yours?"

Clawdeen slightly shocked as a blush dresses her face, however, she got it under control to look up with her alluring amber eyes and a toothy smile. "Deal."

"Ahem." the armored Shinnosuke lets out a cough for the monster and human to have their attention on the older human. "As much as I like a touching moment," he extends out his hand. "I would like Krim and the Shift-Brace back."

"What… oh." Chris lets go of Clawdeen, who took a step back and looks at the other direction. The human looks at the belt, he wanted to keep it… but this does belong to black Kamen Rider. He gently hands it back and takes off the brace. "Will we see you again?"

"Heh." Shinnosuke smirks under his helmet and enters his car. "In time," he then drives off in top speed and skillfully avoids the debris and vehicles on the road.

The monster and human watched him leave, only to look at one another with a pondering look and shrugs. "So…" Clawdeen breaks the silence.

"Um…" Chris scratches the back of his head. "... Shall we get the Chinese food?"

"...Yeah…"

The werecat sees the battle finishing, she sees the destruction of the Roidmudes and the Riders and monster dispersing way to their own agendas. She collapse to her knees as her back is supported by the small walled ledge of the roof, hugging her legs as the terrible memories surge and burst from its long slumber

-0-0-0-0-

"Mommy!" the smaller and younger Werecat crise with flooding tears to the woman on the ground. Who seems to be unmoving of the aftermath of the Global Freeze Event. "Please… wake up!"She cries and cries to try to wake her mother up but with no avail… she is gone.

-0-0-0-0-

The orange Werecat sniffles and wipes the forming tears in her eyes. But a tiny honk is heard for her twitching ears, making her turn to see the purple tiny car with the white printed ninja star on the hood. It seems as though is drives to her side and nuzzles to leg as if it was trying to comfort her. The punk clothed monster could not help but smiles and picks up car known as Midnight Shadow. "I guess I'm not alone after all?" the car honks a couple of times. The monster girl tries to understand but peers her head over the ledge, watching the Human and Werewolf walking out of a restaurant with bags of take out food in their hands. "Hm…" she processes the situation and looks down are the purple car resting on her palm. "I need some thinking to do." she said pockets the Shift-Car and leaves the roofs. A time to recollect the her thoughts and the decision which could change the future.

-0-0-0-0-

The sun has set and the night has risen, the monster and human walked side by side with tattered clothes and minor injuries, well, the human suffered worse, but worth it to save a life.

"I still can't believe the Rising Dragon was untouched by the entire fiasco?" Clawdeen said in shocked as her hands held bags of take out food.

Chris was in the same situation but is carrying a large portion for the his neighbor's family. "I'm still shocked you know how to use a shotgun?" he turns to the werewolf with a puzzling look. "When did you learn how to use a shotgun in the first place?"

"Dad likes to go hunting once in a while," Clawdeen shrugs at the idea as memories filled her mind.

"I thought Werewolves use only their claws and teeth, well, traditionally with pride that is?"

"Half of that is true really," the amber eye monster explains. "But this is the 20th century, just got to work with the changes, plus I don't want to get my hands in that kind of situation." She then thinks for a moment and looks over to Normie. "How'd you learn to fight like that?"

"During my time in Boo-York and I'm still homeschooling myself, my parents asked a neighbor to do something a little more... active... Reluctantly enough the neighbor turned out to be a Boxing instructor, taught good amount on fighting before I moved here." the human explains his backstory, though he did not want to mention being babysat by a professional wrestler at that one time but that will be for another story. The human sees Clawdeen's ears twitched, causing her to stop and look back. "What's wrong?"

"A cop car is coming."

"Human or Monster?" He did not like either of those because things could go both ways for them.

"Can't tell, they both ride similar cars." she said as her eyes are trained on a police car which pulled up to them, having the passenger window to open up for them.

"What are you two doing out here in the middle of the night?" Said the cop who is riding in the driver's seat.

Chris stepped up and leans down to see. "We're both on our way home t-." he stopped to see who the driver is and his eyes widened. "You…?"

"Wait what?" Clawdeen looks to see and her eyes widened. "You?"

It was Shinnosuke, the man who transformed into an armored rider from earlier. He lets out a smile and unlocks the car. "Need a ride home?"

Both of them looked at one another, shrugging as they have no clue of this man's agenda, however, this man did save their lives. The monster and human loaded up the food on the back seat at one side as Clawdeen to the open space as Chris got in the front passenger seat. Shinnosuke checked the road and drives his new passengers to the needed destination for them. "I'm Tomari Shinnosuke by the way," he breaks the awkward silence and tries to introduce himself. "Tomari, or Mr. Shinnosuke, or Shinnosuke is fine as well." he said them.

Chris looked away from the window and sees the dashboard, only to find the belt, Krim, latched on to the dashboard. "I'm Christian, Christian Davis," he introduces himself and points at the back seat to the werewolf. "And she's Clawdeen Wolf."

"I see," Tomari smiles as he continues to pay attention to the road. "Very good names."

Clawdeen peeks over to the driver, wanting to direct the conversation to something else for her questions to be answered. "What were those things what attacks the town… and me included?"

Shinnosuke looked grim but a determination aura had covered him. "Those would be Roidmude,"

"Roidmude?" Chris now confused but kind of fitting. "Well, better than androids or machine men or even robots?"

"I know." The Kamen Rider of the black armor agrees.

Krim turns to the group on the dashboard. "The Roidmudes were my creation, well, before I was human and put my conscience into the Driver as you can see. They hunt down those down anything and anyone to achieve a greater evolu-."

"You created them!?" the monster and human teens shouted in shock as they looked at the belt.

"Not intentionally if that was what you were thinking!" Krim quickly stated before Clawdeen pulled out the shotgun she had before as Chris found a police baton ready to smash the very talking device. "Shinnosuke, make note to remove that weapon from the car."

"Got it,"

Clawdeen simmers down her anger and puts away the shotgun after checking the safety is on. "So what's going to happen to us?" she crosses her arms while leaning back to her seat. "You got something to wipe our memories or something?"

"That is a myth." Krim said with a flat emote. "But most importantly, we want the both of you to keep this quiet as possible."

"You don't want us to tell the world what happened?" Chris said with a raised brow.

"Correct," Tomari made a right and enters the neighborhood. "The cover story is you all ran into a store safe from the attack, you," he looks at Chris and pays attention to the road. "Used yourself as a shield to protect Clawdeen from an explosion nearby." Clawdeen and Chris blushed and looked out their windows, well, it would not be a complete lie that is. The officer drives up to the house, one unfamiliar for the human, and next to it Chris immediately knows that is the very home he is currently moving in.

"That's my-." The monster and human stopped when they pointed out, "Wait, your my next door neighbor?" they said in unison with confused expression dressed in their faces.

"Oh, wait." Chris said as realization spread over him and smacks himself in the face.

"Yeah." Clawdeen said, just as embarrassed as he was. The Werewolf girl was the one who ran to his driveway earlier today, and yet she never noticed she only ran more than twenty feet from her house.

Shinnosuke and Krim looked at one another with a smile, the driver presses the button the side to unlock the doors for them to leave. "Have a safe night,"

"Yeah, don't let the No-." she was about to finish her sentence but stopped herself to see the two humans looking at her. "Well… you know." She gets out and circles around the car to the other side and picked up her bags of food, she looks at Chris who was looking at her and smiles. "Goodnight."

"...Yeah...night…" he said softly and sees her leave and walks to her home. The front door to her house immediately opened and the entire family poured out with and hugged Clawdeen in a family embrace. He could not count how many of the little pups are there, but he does see two sisters, one of them the eldest as the other the youngest. An older brother but younger than the eldest sister, and Clawrka and Harriet. He smiles at the warm reunion, now it is time to meet with his. Before the human could leave, he remembers something and picks out from his pocket to reveal the red Speed Shift-Car in his hand. "Here," he said and hands it to Shinnosuke. "I think this belongs to you?"

Tomari looks at the car and up to the human and smile, but to the younger human's surprise, the car and his hand were pushed back gently. "No, this is yours," Shinnosuke said and earns a shock from Chris. "I'll come back tomorrow morning, and by that time, I will give you an offer of a lifetime."

"An offer?"

"To be a Kamen Rider."

Chris's eyes widened in shock and disbelief, to transform again to be an armored knight once more and protect everyone, "R-really?" surprised at the offer.

"Really." Krim said with a smile but changed to a serious emote. "However, to be a Kamen Rider, you must accept the burden which will be placed upon you and your life."

"And your identity will be kept a secret at all costs." Shinnosuke said. "Kamen is translated to Masked, meaning the Kamen Rider legacy is to fight the enemies in the shadows and to protect the loved ones by any means."

"Even your life." Krim stats to the younger human.

Chris ponders at the idea and looks down to the Speed Shift-Car in his hand, letting out a sigh and nods. "I'll… think about it." he said as he is undecided of the offer.

Shinnosuke nods with a smile. "We'll meet again tomorrow morning." he said as he watches Chris walked out of the car and taking the bags of food with him. He sighs as he sees the human walked inside of the house and turns to Krim. "That didn't go as planned."

"But every Kamen Rider starts somewhere," The device said. "Just like you did when we first met?"

"Ah, I was a slow minded officer at the time." Shinnosuke said and drives off. "Better get home, I hear Kiriko is making my favorite?"

"Hm." Krim thinks for a minute and smiles. "I think we are going to see history repeating itself."

"Eh?"

"Nothing."

As Chris walked into his house, amazed that the door was unlocked which means his parents are still home. He gently kicks the door close and continues his way around the stairs and into the living to make his way to the kitchen. The human teen was about to speak out but stopped himself to see his mother, Amanda, and his step-father, Alister, on their phones while panicking and pacing around the kitchen.

"Chris if you get this message, call me please!" Amanda shrieks in fear, she lost her first husband to these Roidmudes before, she does not want to lose her son as well.

Alister is in a similar predicament, only he was talking to the authorities of New Salem. "He's human, sixteen years old and short black hai-... yes I'm a Minotaur." he growls in frustration. "No I'm his step-father, keep up!"

The human teen continues to watch his parents trying their best to find answers, but he needs to break this cycle before one of them unleashes a parental volcano which could outclass the apocalypse. "Guys." he spoke up for both Human Mother and Minotaur Father to stop everything they were doing and see their son. "... I'm home…" he said with an assuring smile. The parents dropped their phones, not caring if they were damaged or broken and immediately run to him and soon all three of them are in a family embracement. Alister was so large he actually envelopes them like a furry blanket to the humans.

"W-why haven't you answered my c-calls?" Amanda held back as much tears to speak clearly to her son.

"My phone got destroyed." Chris said as it was true that his icoffin was crushed and crumbled during his fight with the Roidmudes, an omission to keep a secret from his family.

The Minotaur sniffs as he cries lightly as his chin is nesting above the humans head. "D-don't make us worry like that."

The human teen smiles warmly, wiggling a little to tell his parents to let break away from the family hug. "I promise," he said a he lifts up the bag of food in his hands. "I got dinner?"

Aanda and Alister could only smile with joy, helping their son with the bags and set up on the already set table and began eating.

Out in another part of town of New Salem, the Roidmude 029 survived the finishing blow from the two Kamen Riders which destroyed his friends. He wants to destroy them to avenge his comrades, but first thing's first to recover the wounds he has now.

"Whew, that was a close one." he sighs of relief as his was able to stand properly with a minor limp. "But, even with two Kamen Rider around, there's nothing to stop me from continuing my evolution!" Iron Roidmude says as he creates another Data Mimicry mixture, this one having Clawdeen's eyes and brown fur with a different outfit of having a red and black leopard spotted jacket and blue jeans."Perfect, now all I need i-."

"BREAK UP!" Announced a device he had not heard for a very long time.

"That chilling atmosphere," he looks around his surroundings to find the source. "It can't be!" Iron said as he wheeled around, "The Grim-" 029 was interrupted when he was smashed into a wall by an unknown assailant.

GUN! FULL BREAK! A violet-indigo glow was seen from the shadowed figure's weapon as energy is collected at the barrel and points at the Roidmude.

"Reape-." he said no more as his body was destroyed, his Core undamaged and tries to fly off, but was quickly caught in a very strong grip by the so called Grim Reaper. The number struggles in the grasp of his attacker, but the figure's orange compound eye glowing ominously in the shadows as it crushed the Roidmude Core into dust particles.

After the Bounds family at the Chinese food and everything was cleaned up, the son was patched up by his mother with fresh bandages to cover his bloody knuckles and patched up his cheek. Chris decided to turn in early after a quick shower, luckily to house has running hot water, and made his way to his room upstairs on the left side from the front view. It was not properly set up since it is the first day of moving, only for the mattress with no bed frame to be in the middle as his belongings are still in boxes and suitcases are set on the edges of the wall and a desk next to a window. But when he walked to his window to the side of the house, he sees Clawdeen, now his next door neighbor, already about to sleep. But before she walked away from the window view, she stopped to see Chris, making her smile and opens the window and so did the human.

"Hey." The werewolf spoke out loud for him to hear clearly from across such distance. "How are you holding up?"

"Some bruised ribs, but I'll live." Chris said, looking closer at the werewolf wearing a black claw ripped shirt and a tiger printed themed pajama pants. But what caught his eye was there were bandages around her neck, showing how the Roidmude was holding. "How are you holding up?" he said as he points his own neck for her to see what the human ment.

Clawdeen reaches up to her neck, feeling the bandages around her injuries. "Oh this." she smiles softly, looking up to him with her amber eyes. "I'll be fine, thanks to you."

Chris blushes as he scratches the back of his head. "I-It was nothing really…"

The werewolf girl was about to say more, only to hear her mother calling out for her. "I got to go," she said and backs up from her window. "Night." she said with a wave.

"...Night…" he waves farewell for now and both the human and monster closed their respective windows of their room. He sighs with a smile, taking one last look out the window to see Clawdeen turning off her lamps and drops to her bed. He hears a tiny honk, turning down to see the small Speed Shift-Car on his desk, moving back and forward as if it were giggling. The human points with his finger and tries to control his blush. "Don't you say anything, it's not what you think." he said and sat on his bed. "And you are suppose to keep quiet, or my parents are going to hear you." a couple of tiny honks were said from the Shift-Car, now driving itself to a placed shirt and snuggles to the clean clothing and goes to sleep. The human sighs as he grabs the blanket of his bed, grabbing the lamp switch quickly to turns the lift off, laying on his bid and the sheets over his body. He stares at the ceiling, thinking about the day he had been through.

He met a beautiful werewolf girl, given a tour around some parts of New Salem and met her friends, battled a Roidmude attack and was given the opportunity to be a Kamen Rider.

... A Kamen Rider…

Chris did not feel like he could be one since he let out his rage upon 088 when he transformed, but the capabilities to learn to use this power is unimaginable, but would require discipline. He lets out a deep sigh, rolling to his side and closes his eyes to enter a slumbering state.

Morning had risen for the Bounds family and the current time is about 7:45 am. The family woke up early enough to start unpacking their belongings around 6:30 to start the day. Alister is holding up a television set as Chris was behind it with a few wires being connecting to it. Normally this would be difficult to set up a flat screen TV to a wall, but with a Minotaur's strength and the tiny hands of a human make up the strengths and weaknesses to cut the work half of the normal time.

"And… done." Chris said as he walks to the side, "Ok, you got it dad?"

Alister chuckles as he lifts the flat television with ease. "This is nothing." he said and hooks it up to the wall.

"Ok, a little to the right," Amanda was on the side after unboxing some plate and helps with the alignment on the couch. "Ok, left, le~ft, stop, that's perfect!" she raises her hands up for the boys to stop, making them walk back a see their hard work paid off.

"Now all I need to do is call the satellite company for get back to watching the news." Alister said as he wrists down on his phone for his to-do list.

"I'll get the movies," Chris said and walks to the dining hall where the rest of the boxes are at.

Amanda smiles and an idea had popped in her mind, something to celebrate their set up television and the day after their official family moving. "I'll go see to the perishables and find some popcorn, tonight will be movie night."

*Ding Dong!*

"Hm, who could that be at this hour?" Amanda said and walks to the door and opens it, only to see Clawdeen wolf in her normal clothes and a backpack strapped over her shoulder. She then noticed the Werewolf's neck wrapped in bandages, probably from yesterday. "Oh, good morning Clawdeen," she said with a smile. "Is there anything I can help you with?"

The younger monster blushes a bit and shuffles her shoulders. "Um… is Chris awake?" she said awkwardly and looks up to the human mother with her amber eyes. "I… wanted to see him before I leave for school."

Amanda's mind flourished with the ideas of her son finally getting noticed by a girl, but not just a girl, a monster girl. Her imagination was nothing offending but filled with joy and happiness. She smiles, not revealed her hidden agenda and nods. "Oh he's awake, let me go fetch him." she said and turns to the inside of the house. "Chris! Your friend came to talk to you!"

Both the mother and the Werewolf girl hear a light fumble of boxes and scrambling footsteps, coming to view is Chris himself as he walked calmly to the his mother and sees Clawdeen. "Oh… good morning." Amanda decides to leave the teenagers alone, shuffling backwards and hides herself behind the stairs and peeks out to try and listen in the conversation. The human boy scratching the back of his head as the Werewolf girl blushes as she looks away. "I-I see you're feeling better now?"

"Y-Yeah," Clawdeen shuffles a little and her earing ears flopped as if she is flustered. Alister pears next to his wife and watches the conversation, watching his step-son chatting with the Werewolf. "N-nothing too serious really." she then looks up to his brown eyes and met her ambered eyes. "I came to check on you before I leave to school… I was wondering if you want to hang out afterwards?"

Chris smiles… but a frown was forming with self disappointment. "I… can't… sorry, I need to help my parents with unpacking."

"Oh." Clawdeen's ears flopped down, both the parents internally screamed in anguish for this kind of predicament to happen. "I'll… see you tonight at the window then."

"Um… yeah, maybe tomorrow then?"

Clawdeen's eyes looks up with a grateful look, smiling and her hand on her hip. "Tomorrow," she said and turns around to see her impatient older brother and youngest sister. "See you around." she said and leaves with her hips swaying.

Chris was force to tear himself away from the site and closes the door, but notices the older Werewolf brother watching him closely. He lets out a sigh and got his thumping heart under control… only to see his parents peeking out of the corner, with expression learning at him which confuses him more than ever. "What?"

"How can you be so oblivious!" Amanda walks to her son. "There's a girl who wants to hang out with you."

"But I'm busy moving and unpacking with you guys." The son protests, but his father crosses his arms.

"I'm not a teenager like you are," The Minotaur said. "But to put aside the embarrassing parental talking… you just put yourself in friend zone."

"B-but-?"

"I agree," Amanda points at her husband and back to her son. "You do not, just reject, a cute girl with a heart so big like that."

"It's not like that!"

*Ding Dong!*

Chris sighs turns to the door, "We're just friends, who just met yesterday who were attacked by Roidmudes." he opens it the door… only to see Tomari Shinnosuke standing on his front porch. "...Mr. Shinnosuke?..." he said and controls his composure, remembering his suppose cover up from yesterday attack. "... Good morning."

"A human officer?" Amanda looks over and sees it is true. "You know him?"

"He's the police officer who dropped me and Clawdeen home." The younger human explains the situation and looks back at the officer. "Hm… what are you doing here?"

Tomari smiles, "Good morning," he said and looks at the Human mother and Minotaur father, "You must be Amanda and Alister Bound," he said as he already knew them, earning a silence nod as they try to process on what is happening. "I have an offer of a lifetime for your son… um… may I?" he said and motions his hand for the parents to know he would like the conversation inside of the house.

"Y-yes, this way." Alister said and waves his hand to follow him.

Amanda nods as she is still shocked. "W-would you like some coffee Officer Tomari?"

"Shinnosuke is fine Mrs. Bound," The officer said and steps inside to follow the monster as Chris closes the door. "Thank you for the offer, but I am to leave for duty soon." he explains as the family and himself are in the entertainment room with the already set up as everyone sat on the couch with Chris in the center and Tomari sitting on the chair.

"D-did my son do anything wrong?" Amanda said fearfully, hoping not for her son to be taken away.

The guest of authority shakes his ahead with an assuring smile. "Your son did nothing wrong, but he may do something right." he said and pulls up a file from his suit jacket. "To put it bluntly, you are the first family to be wedded in a situation such as this," he said and looks at the Minotaur man and Human woman. "Which is why here, in New Salem, the Monster Council and the some Human Leaders who support peace over destruction, wanted to conduct a project." he said and places the folder before them. "You, Christian Bound, are the only Human in the world who actually set foot in harmony to the monsters." he said and leans back and digs up another item which includes a golden badge and sets it on the table next to the folder. "You have been selected a single lifetime of opportunity, to enforce and protect both Monsters and Humans together, to join the MOnsters and Normie Safety Unit, or MONS Unit for short."

Amanda processes on what Tomari had said, her mind sending out alarms for mostly for her son's safety… but at the same time a chance for her family to actually live in harmony. "You want our son to be in an police unit?"

Shinnosuke nods with confidence backing him up. "Indeed," he said. "But this is your son's decision alone to whether uphold the task to bring peace or not." he sees Chris holding up the folder and reads it.

"...I took my driver's test in Boo-York," he said reading the print, "I needed to get i-?"

"Already done," The officer said without hesitation for his re-registration to be transferred to New Salem.

"Citizen regist-?"

"Taken care of." Again without holding back.

"Medical records?"

"You and your mother have taken shots and medicine to eat most monster foods in a regular basis." Tomari said and adjusts his tie again, just to see the Mother and Son's reaction with eyes widened and jaws dropped. "The doctors tested your bloods and are compatible with the medicine, a one out of a trillion possibility which is very small."

"..." Alister eyes widened who was trying to get words out of his muzzle, letting out a cough to clear his throat. "... I… don't w-."

"When he works with the MONS unit he will get paid fully."

"..."

"No I'm not a mind reader, I just know what most of the questions are going to be answered."

"Just checking." Amanda spoke up and looks at her son. "Chris, do you want to do this?"

The human son of the Human mother and Minotaur step-father did not respond after turning a page in the file… only to stop and reread a sentence over and over to be clear. "I… I have to be-."

"Yes." Shinnosuke said and his elbows on his knees as he leans forward. "So… what is your decision?"

Monster High, the school for all monsters kinds of monster learn and interact with one another.

This varies many monster kind which ranges from small such as slime monsters, to something large in such for gigantic big foots. The variety of many monster students are entering the school while talking to one another about their day and what they had done last night, however, the biggest news ever was the attack of Roidmudes from yesterday.

Clawdeen and her family arrived in 7:55, currently the time is now 8:15, due to their natural speed as Werewolves, it was an easy stroll for them. The Wolf siblings were chatting amongst their friends as the youngest sister left to talk with her own group. The elder brother stayed with Clawdeen, however, he heard a squeal of delight, turning around to find a petit missile of love and joy who originated to be Draculaura. "I missed you Clawd!" she wrapped her arms to the Werewolf, who in returned in a gentle embrace.

"I missed you too." The elder brother known as Clawd, said warmly. This elder brother wolf has brown fur like Clawdeen's as well a short gelled hair cut and amber eyes. He wears a black jock jacket with the Monster High symbol on his back and front right chest as well blue jeans and nearly torn sneakers which does not seem to actually mind. "I'm just glad your safe is all." he said worryingly for his true love Ghoulfriend with all his heart and joy.

"Isn't that lovely," Abby smiles as she had her books in her arms. However, the moment slightly ruined as the elemental leans to the Abominable Snowgirl.

"I promised to protect you my snowgirl." Heath wiggles his eyebrows.

Unconvinced, Abby uses exhales deeply to release a stream of snow, instantly freezing the fire elemental instantly and nonlethally. "You screamed and run like puppy."

Deuce rolled his eyes behind his shades and turns to the recovering Werewolf. "How's the Normie… um…" he ponders to remember the Human's name.

"Ughughh." The glasses wearing zombie with the mind of a supercomputer groans while adjusts her glasses with a bike helmet under her arm as she recently arrived on a motorscooter.

"Chris, thank you Ghoulia," Cleo reminds her boyfriend, her Anubis henchmen carrying her belongings. "Kind of reckless really, but kind hearted."
Clawdeen spoke up and smiles. "And he's doing well, tougher than I would imagine?" she said slightly dreamingly as she instinctively using her left hand to massage her bandaged neck. Remembering how the human punched the Roidmude who holder by the neck and transforming into an armored warrior who saved her twice.

Frankie and Lagoona looked at one another, smiling as they turn to their Werewolf friend. "Sounds like you like him mate?" the sea creature said with a teasing smile.

Clawdeen's cheeks rapidly blushed with her ears flustering. "N-no I don't!"

"What about this morning you checked on him?" Clawd said bluntly, getting a glare in order from his little sister to shut up. "Weird he's actually our next door neighbor really?"

Clawdeen raises her hands and about to throttle her own brother, but interrupted by her ghoul's squeal of delight. "AAWWEE!"

"S-shut up!" she blushes furiously as her words were not offensive but demanding to her friends. "He's just a friend and neighbor and that's that."

"Ri~ight," Frankie smiles and presses on the friendly teasing. "What about him saving you from that crazy robot?"

"He just saved me because it felt right to him." The Werewolf protests as she tries to keep her blush under control.

Abby did not seem to be the teasing type, however smiling as she admires the Normie's determination. "I like how friendly human is strong." she bluntly said with admiration. "Brave and kind hearted like fluffy protective and strong yak fighting pack of wolves alone to protect baby calf." Clawdeen would be jealous but could not help but agree.

Everyone but the Werewolf and the Abominable Snowgirl giggled and laugh, leaving the amber eyed brown furred monster fuming and leaving the blue skinned and albino white haired girl slightly clueless. Heath melted his way out but grew jealous and puffs his chest. "I'm tougher and stronger than the flesh bag." trying to gain pride and respect…

Clawdeen growls and snaps her fangs, making the elemental flinch back. "Don't you dare talk about him like that." she barks at Heath and begins to chew him out with words. "He risked his life to save me, and what you did was you ran like a squealing little scaredy bat!" she then motions her head to Draculaura. "No offense."

"Non taken." The petit vampire was behind Clawd who hid behind his backpack to use as a shield.

"Woah and she's edgey too?" Deuce raises his hands in defense as Cleo was behind her Gorgon Boofriend in fright, even the Anubis henchmen slightly quiver with their knees buckled and shaking.

Abby was about to say her piece of mind as well, only for her eyes to caught a red Camaro car with two black stripes drawn in the middle. "That is new?" she said as the rest of the group's attention to see the vehicle pulling up and to the side of the stairs entrance while avoiding the students who are crossing through.

"Come to think of it," Clawd points it out to the parking spot. "I just noticed that parking space is reserved for someone."

"For who?" Frankie looks up to the brother wolf.

"Dunno." Lagoona adds her thoughts and red Camaro turning off its engines. The windows are actually too dark to see who the driver is. "But I don't remember any other student riding on something that fancy?"

Deuce adjusts his sunglasses, but sees an insignia of a shield similar to a police. "It looks like a cop car," he said and squints. "And it says… MONS?"

"What like monster?" Clawdeen said with a puzzled look.

"Ughuuughuughgggghhh."

"An acronym, she says." Draculaura said and watches the door of the driver seat open…

All the Ghouls and Boos' eyes widened in shock to see the Normie, Christian Bound, exiting from the car with a backpack. The human looked confident and happy as he closes the door of his new car, locking the door for driving 101 to lock the doors at all cost when leaving the vehicle.

"I… I accept." Chris said with a smile. Both parents wanted to deny… but instead they will support their son. It is time for him to socialize with other people and monsters.

Shinnosuke smile could not get any better, nodding and his hand gestures the folder. The younger human gives back the papers for the the officer to turn a few pages, locating the needed page and places it on the floor and pulls out a pen. "Sign here, here and here." he instructs for the human to sign his signature. "Your badge is right there," he points the item on the table. "I welcome you to MONS unit," both humans shake each other's hands to seal the deal. "And by delivering of word and power by Headmistress Blood, Monster Council, and the Human Leaders of good, you are enrolled as a student of Monster High."

"I got to get ready!" The human teen grabs his badge and leaps over the coffee table to make his way to his bedroom.

"Wait!" Chris skidded to a holt before he could run up to the stairs to see Shinnosuke standing up and walks to him. "You're not going to school, just yet... " he digs his pocket for a set of keys. "Not without style of course?" he said and dangles lightly for the excited humans eyes baited the metal object. The officer tosses the keys to the new student of Monster High, and was caught with both hands.

Chris walks up to them casually, the stares of monsters are either confusion and fear filled their hearts and faces, but to the group is more confusion than fear. Clawdeen blinks several times to see if she was dreaming… no… no she is not, her next door, human neighbor, is walking towards her and her friends. "C-Chris?" she spoke up to break the silence when the human is feet before her friends, still trying to believe the Human is walking on school grounds. "What are you doing here?"

The human sighs with excitement, feeling free from being homeschooled no more and finally in school. He looks at the questioning Werewolf girl with a smile of confidence. "Bluntly, I'm the new kid of Monster High," he remembers something and digs his pocket, pulling out a gold badge with has the insignia and acronym of MONS. He then straps the badge over right front pocket to show his authority."I'm also Monster High's security, both student and officer on duty." he said and salutes to the still stunned monsters.
