Eternal Disciple

Okay, here's a little experiment I've been wanting to do for a while especially since this is one of those ideas that either nobody has had or nobody has acted on it. Now just to be clear this take place directly after the fight with Tanimoto. So, Kenichi is about at his midpoint of power in civilian mode... At least in terms of the anime 'cause I haven't got around to reading the manga. An yes, before a hundred people mention it. I am aware that all the T2 Memories were destroyed in A-Z. But for the sake of this story they survived and are now all over the city. With all that explained... Let's kick it up!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Kenichi Shirahama, once the physically weakest boy in his school and quite possibly the entire city of Tokyo, now the number one disciple of the Ryozanpaku dojo was doing his morning two lap run before breakfast. A lighter run than he was normally forced to do by his Masters. Kenichi reasoned it was most likely because of his recent victory against Tanimoto.

'Tanimoto.' Kenichi thought before stopping and looking up.

"Why'd you stop?" Asked Kenichi's Judo Master Akisame, who he had been dragging across the city on a tire.

"Sorry. I was just thinking." Kenichi said before making his concerns known. "Do you think it was just dumb luck that I beat Tanimoto?" He asked.

"Luck is always a factor in battle. But in my experience, the old saying is true. Fortune favors the prepared." Akisame said, gaining a small smile from his disciple. "Of coarse you have to keep in mind that Tanimoto will likely be preparing so fortune favors him next time." The Judo Master warned.

"Then I'll just have to make sure that I'm even more prepared." Kenichi said as Akisame looked at him with no small amount of pride at the conviction he showed.

Just then, the early morning sky lit up as what appeared to be twenty six multicolored meteors the largest of which appearing to be glowing gold.

"What the hell was that." Kenichi muttered before he sensed something behind him and quickly moved to the side to avoid Akisame's whip before he continued his run.

A short while later Kenichi was just getting finished eating breakfast with the masters before he and Miu were about to head out to school.

"Oh crap. I forgot my backpack." Kenichi said before turning to Miu. "You go ahead. I'll catch up." He said to the blonde.

"Are you sure. I don't mind waiting." Miu said.

"No. It's fine. You've got to meat with the Gymnastics team anyway." Kenichi said, getting a reluctant nod from Miu before he headed back in to the dojo to get his backpack. As he entered his room to get it however he was met with the sight of his roof having a hole in it.

Kenichi then looked down from the hole to see an indent in his floor. He slowly walked to it where he found a red and black buckle, a black combat knife and what seemed to be a white USB drive with a blue tip and a gold E in the middle.

"No way!" Kenichi breathlessly exclaimed before going to his bookshelf and pulling out a black scrapbook he had been working on for several years. He quickly flipped through the pages before coming to a page of a man wearing skeleton like armor, a skull themed helmet, and a buckle just like the one he had. He then flipped the page to nine small picture of a man in armor that was two different colors in combos which consisted of the right side being either green, red, or yellow and the left being either black, silver, or blue.

"How did this get to me?" Kenichi asked as he held up the buckle and the USB up. He then glanced over to his clock to see that he was running late and decided to hold those questions for later before he absentmindedly put the buckle, knife and USB drive in to his backpack.

Kenichi was running extremely late and knew there was little chance of him making it school on time even going at full speed. Thankfully, he remembered the shortcut that Miu had shown him back when they had first met. So, he made a bee line for the drainage ditch and that... Is where his journey truly began.

As Kenichi was about to attempt the jump that Miu had made way back then when he her. Kisara Nanjo, AKA Valkyrie, the Eighth Deadly Fist of the gang Ragnarok was facing off against some guy that Kenichi didn't recognize. While some part of Kenichi wanted him to just avoid the fight given that it wasn't his concern. However, a much more powerful part of him was telling him to stay. That was the part he listened to as he began to watch things unfold.

"What do you want, Inoue." Kisara asked in the annoyed tone that Kenichi had come to know her for.

"I'm here to get my revenge for you cheating in our match back then." Inoue said while his fist trembled.

"You're still on that." Kisara said with a mocking laugh. "Get it through your head. I beat you because I'm better than you." She said, trying to break the boys delusions.

"That's impossible!" Inoue shouted. "No girl can be better than a man!" He shouted even louder. His misogynistic words beginning to piss Kisara off something fierce. "And I'll prove it by evening the playing field to where you aren't the only one cheating ." He said with sadistic grin before holding up a blue USB drive with an I on it much to the shock of Kenichi and then pressed the white button on it causing them all to hear the words 'ICE AGE'.

Inoue then jammed the drive in to the crook of his neck before circuit like markings appeared all over his body before he was transformed in to a creature with a white torso and shoulders, black limbs, and a black head under a tribal like mask.

Within an instant, the water froze over and Kisara found herself froze up to the calves. Inoue then proceeded to blast her with a flurry of show causing ice crystals. "This will teach you to know the place of a girl!" Inoue shouted as he summoned a large spear of ice and launched at Kisara.

Kenichi had, had enough of simply watching and jumped down and kicked the ice beneath Kisara's feet and pushing her out of the path of the spear. But taking a grazing hit to the shoulder for is effort.

"Sh-Shirahama?" Kisara asked in shock at having been saved by someone she considered an enemy.

"Can you stand?" Kenichi asked as he ignored the pain he was feeling the gash in his shoulder.

Kisara tried to see if she could stand up. "No." She said in shock. "My legs. They're numb." She said almost in disbelief as her eye began to tear up at the thought of not being able to fight anymore.

"Don't worry." Kenichi said, putting a comforting hand on the Tai Kwon Do user's shoulder. "I'll take care of this clown and then I'll take you to someone who can fix you up." He said, much to Kisara's surprise.

"W-why would you help me?" She asked, unable to understand Kenichi's motives.

"Two reason." Kenichi said. "One: I hate seeing a good fighter taken down by a cheap shot and two..." He said before standing up. "I'm never going to turn my back when someone needs my help." He said with the same conviction he had during his morning run as a golden light began to glow inside his backpack and in that moment, Kenichi knew exactly what to do. Kenichi then pulled out his USB before he on pure instinct, placed the buckle on his waist as a full black metal belt wrapped around it.

"Stay out of this." Inoue said as Kenichi stepped forward to fight him.

"Sorry, but that's not going to happen." Kenichi said, having gone in to full hero mode as he lifted up his USB and pressing the button as the word 'ETERNAL' was heard. "Henshin!" He called out as he placed the USB in buckle and pulling on it as 'ETERNAL' was heard again along with a fast paced beet before a full white suit of armor with, black lines on the underpart of the shoulder pads red gloves and red flame marks on forearms and ankles, the three horned helmet of the armor having yellow compound eyes with black lines coming off their sides and meeting on the back of the helmet.

(Begin song: Samurai Strong Style)

Kenichi began walking towards Inoue, swatting away the smaller ice spears as if they were mere flies. Compared to anything that his Masters or even some of his peers could manage, they might as well have been.

Inoue screamed in rage before incasing his fist in large chunks of ice before attempting to punch the approaching Kenichi only for him to effortlessly catch the punch with his left hand and crush the ice with one squeeze before pushing him back. Inoue then tried hitting Kenichi with what seemed to be a concentrated blizzard only for Kenichi jump and kick off the incline of the drainage ditch before delivering a kick to the side of Inoue's face.

Inoue was so enraged at how easily he was being beaten that he had become even more sloppy than before and that's when Kenichi made his move. When Inoue went to punch him, Kenichi was easily able to direct it down with his palm before flipping his hand and doing an open handed uppercut which he then boosted by using his opposite hand to hit his elbow, launching Inoue high in the air before he jumped up and through him back down.

As if his new armor was instructing him on what to do, Kenichi pulled the USB out of the buckle and placed it on another slot on the left side of the belt and heard the words 'ETERNAL MAXIMUM DRIVE' before golden energy focused around his foot before he drop kicked Inoue while he was staggering to his feet, both knocking him out and ejecting the USB from him.

(End song.)

Kenichi landed between Inoune and the USB before his armor faded away. He then picked it up and put both of them in a smaller pocket of his back while returning the buckle to the main part and walking over to Kisara and picking her up bridal style.

Kisara never one to hold back on what she was thinking was quick to ask the question which was on her mind. "What in the hell was all that?" She asked in regards to the fight she had just scene as Kenichi got her to street level and began walking her to Akisame's clinic.

"I can't be sure. But I have an idea." Kenichi said before explaining how he had seen the twenty six light that morning before finding the buckle and his USB. From that, the two were quick to reason that the two events and Inoue's attack were connected. Of coarse, this also led them to come to another logical conclusion.

"There are twenty four more of those things out there and who knows who has there hands on one?" Kisara asked, dreading the thought somebody completely unhinged got there hands on one of those things.

Meanwhile as the two were thinking about it, three individuals had already found USBs. One was purple with a P on it being grasped in the hand one someone wearing a glove with the roman numeral for four on it. One being held by a familiar cloaked figure was golden and had an N printed on it. The final one and the one which Kenichi would soon find himself facing was pink with a Q depicted on it being held by someone who was simply watching her hated rival as she preformed during Gymnastics practice.

"Then I know what I have to do." Kenichi said as Kisara looked up at him. "I've got to find all of them and make sure they can't be used to hurt anybody." Kenichi said with no amount of doubt in his voice. 'And who knows. Maybe I'll earn that name.' Kenichi thought as his mind went to his scrapbook and those warriors he had cataloged there in. Those warriors who give hope to those who have lost it. Beacons of light to those lost in darkness. For even if there is no God or Buddha there is and will always be...

KAMEN RIDER

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Well, there you go everyone. I hope you enjoyed the pilot chapter of the first Kenichi/ Kamen Rider fic. Now, as I stated in the description the pairing is undecided. I'm going to leave it up to a poll. If the story does continue (Keep in mind all this falls to the feedback.) the candidates are Miu, Kisara, Shigure, Renka, Isumi, or a Harem. Last thing. Since the T2s don't have the druggy side effects of regular memories, I do intend for some of Kenichi's friends to get them. The question is, who gets what (Joker, Accel, and Skull are not going to anyone.) Please vote in the reviews, fallow, fav, and until next time and as always... Keep on keeping on.
