The Day of Oma…
She-Ra pointed her trusty sword at Oma Zi-O, who laid, defeated, on the ground.
"You really thought you could defeat me, Demon King?" She-Ra asked, her sword glowing a bright blue. Oma Zi-O groaned a bit, slowly getting up from the ground. He stared at her, his eyes piercing forward at her. He summoned his swords, the Edge of Greatness and the Edge of Time, before running forward at her.
As expected, his attacks bounced off of She-Ra's powerful sword. She-Ra was the greatest warrior alive, it was no wonder that Oma Zi-O was having a tough time fighting against her. She-Ra's eyes squinted as she struck at him again, sending him falling to the ground. He let out another groan, as she walked toward him. Was this the end? No, it wouldn't be the end, he thought to himself. He laughed loudly, as he rose up one final time.
"I must give you quite the credit for besting me in battle, She-Ra." Oma Zi-O said, wobbling forward towards her. The golden-haired warrior simply stared at her, their eyes locked. "But I still have one final trick… up my sleeve!"
"You must mean…"
"Correct! The Ridewatches!" Oma Zi-O pulled out the Blade Ridewatch. "All the powers that I've stolen from the Kamen Riders." The monument that stood behind him contained the lifelike statues of the Kamen Riders. He laughed loudly. "And look at them now! Reduced down to mere statues that behold my glory!"
"You really think you can defeat me, don't you?" She-Ra asked, holding her sword up at him. In retaliation, he set the Blade Ridewatch into the Edge of Time, before he ran forward.
Finish Time! Blade! Giri Giri Slash!
The sword charged with electricity, lighting a bright blue as if it were conducting a bolt of lightning through the blade. The sword came into contact with She-Ra's sword, but She-Ra simply stood her ground. The two blades clanged against one another several times, each warrior holding down. But in the end, She-Ra's blade shined greatly, a white light emitting from it. The shine blinded Oma Zi-O for a moment, as her felt his belt get struck by his enemy's weapon.
He fell backwards once more, while his belt continued to spark. The Ridewatches spilled onto the ground, as She-Ra began to approach. Slowly, but surely, she picked up the nineteen watches that Oma Zi-O had collected over his rise to power.
"Etheria shall never be yours, Demon King." She-Ra stated simply, she ripped off one of the black belts that Oma Zi-O wore around his torso, and she slung it over her shoulder. Each Ridewatch soon made its way onto the belt, which contained enough holders for them.
"Etheria…? What's it matter?" The demon king said. "It will be Oma Zi-O's in the end…"
"I highly doubt that, old man. You're defeated. Without your dominion over the other Riders, you can do nothing. You're as weak as they come now." She-Ra replied. "And we will see that you pay for your crimes at trial."
"Hahaha… You really think… I will stand a trial!?" He rose up quickly, his sword in gun mode as he aimed it at She-Ra. In the flash of a moment, she disarmed him with her own blade, and struck several times at him. She-Ra had the permission to slay the demon king at any costs, even if it cost him his life.
Sparks flew off of Oma Zi-O's armor, as it finally gave way, revealing a man in his sixties wearing royal garb. He collapsed to the ground, as She-Ra turned to look at him. She had been provoked, and he had gotten the easy way out. But he laughed instead. The laughing was inane, and she did not like it one bit.
"You think you've won, She-Ra?" He laughed a bit more, as he turned over. Oma Zi-O could feel his life fading, but in the end he would have the last laugh. "For the Day of Oma will come once again one day! When the star Regulus, the star of kings, shines bright in the sky it will come! And my heir will take their rightful place as the overlord of Etheria!"
"Heir?! You can't mean…?!" She-Ra was astounded, this was the first time she was hearing of this news. It was definitely not good. If there was another member of Oma Zi-O's lineage, then they might inherit the powers he once had. The powers that allowed him to consolidate the powers of the Riders in the first place.
"I can see the future! Allow me to share it with you!" Oma Zi-O's final attack hit She-Ra hard, inflicting her with memories that were not her own.
"It's nice to meet you!"
"Adora, she will become the grand Demon Queen who will take over Etheria."
"I won't fight you!"
"Then I will slay you where you stand!"
The memories made She-Ra weep. She couldn't make all of them out, but she could hear Oma Zi-O's laughter in the background. But there was hope in there… she could feel it.
"Shinobi is written as the heart of the blade!"
"The answer is to save the world! And it's always the right answer."
"A body of steel, and fire in my heart…"
Those memories weren't her own. No, they were not. But they gave her hope. Oma Zi-O's laughter came to an abrupt stop.
"The Day of Oma is coming… It may not be in your lifetime, She-Ra, but as long as my lineage holds strong… You will never stop Oma Zi-O!" He gave a final cackling laugh, as he soon gave his last breath. Oma Zi-O was dead. She couldn't believe the war against the Demon King of time and space was over, but it was. Taking a deep breath, she looked up at the sky and envisioned a bright future. One where new Kamen Riders and She-Ra defended the world from evil.
However, she had one final job to do. To make sure no one ever held the power of the Riders before her, she had to spread them to the kingdoms around Etheria. Those in power of those kingdoms would know what to do to keep them safe.
She walked away from Oma Zi-O's body.
He didn't deserve a burial.
Next Time: The Rebellion 3068
A/N: Yes I am rewriting this story after I realized, through some help, that the story was too similar to Zi-O to really be interesting. This story will be more original, and I hope you enjoy it! This first prologue is a lot shorter than my normal chapters, but normal chapters will be around 2000-3000 words as per usual. Let me know what you think in the reviews! Thanks!
