I've decided to write something way different than I have before. Simply because as anyone will tell you if you do the same thing over and over again you will begin to get bored of it. This is not to say that any of my other stories are cancelled or on hiatus, this is just something that's just going to help me push through some writers block.
Now please enjoy my reimagining of kamen rider decade
A field lay before her, dusty and sun baked. Dead plants stringing along the wasteland as she walked it. The ground was decorated by the dead bodies of masked heroes, she not knowing any of them and yet she felt a deep pain as she looked at them. A whistle went through the air as she looked at the one responsible. Standing over 9 of the heroes, the destroyer gazed down at them making no noise as he began to walk to her. His masked head rose as he walked to her. He looked so much like them yet he killed them all. What he wore struck her, a armored suit red, black, and white with a X that crossed over his shoulder and chest. His helmet indented with black cards and mostly red except for his eyes. Big jade green bug eyes looked at her as he kept stepping over to her. He was terrifying, yet she would not move, she only stared back at him only saying one word
"Decade"
…
Yuki eyes gently opened as her white room came into her view. Posters of cartoons, bands, and movies showed themselves as the sun light poured into her room. She rubbed her eyes, whisking black hair out of them as she stretched her arms
"Yuki!" she heard a man's voice yell as her door was pounded on. She rolled her tired eyes as she got up.
"I'm up don't worry" she said tiredly aggravated as she sat up. The man responded
"I'm not mom is, get out of your room and go to school" he said as Yuki scowled at her door
"Shut up Zach!" she yelled as she heard him chuckle
"Or what?" she heard him say as footsteps echoed down the hall. Grabbing a pillow, she ran to her door and hucked her pillow as hard as she could at him. Whipping himself around, he punched it to the ground and grinned, whipping some of his black hair out of his face.
"Nice try now get ready" he said walking down the stairs at the end of the hall as Yuki stuck her tongue out and slammed her door shut. She quickly slipped on some jeans and a black top, nothing to fancy after all she is only 14. Her brother is 18, and helps their mom with the café they own under their house. As she got ready, she couldn't help but think of her dream, or what she could remember of it, it was so bizarre. Slipping on some socks she did a once over in the mirror. She had her father eyes, her father was a soldier off on tour. He met her mother on a trip to japan, and some letters and phone calls later she had immigrated to his country. Yuki took most of her mother's Japanese looks with her eyes giving her more of a European look. But her brother had their mom's eyes and their father's height. He almost hit 6 feet tall. With a sigh she turned away from the mirror and walked down stairs. Passing by her mom she waved a good bye as she smiled at her daughter
"Have a nice day honey" she said as Yuki nodded and left out the café's front door as Zach came over and flipped the open sign to open
"Let the day begin" he said as his mom walked into the kitchen and grabbed a big white box
"The day starts immediately for you" she said placing the box on one the front counter.
"Who's the delivery for?" he asked not too thrilled about having to deliver something the instant they opened
"Mr. fujusha, it's the usual cakes and cookies he orders so be careful on your bike" she said as Zach grabbed the box by the strings that were keeping it together.
"Always am mom, be right back" he said with a grin as his mom smiled and reached over the table and kissed him on the cheek as he chuckled and rolled his eyes.
"You're the best hun" she said as he nodded then left for their garage. Hopping on his bike, if you could call it that it was almost a motorized pedal bike with a bad red fading paint job. Reving it up he scooted away, goodies strapped to his bike. As he left the garage he didn't notice that a man in a black suit was looking at him, grinning from the side as Zach left.
Zach had made it to Mr. Fujusha's place in no time, taking shortcuts was always his main method of travel. Leaning on a wall, Zach took a breath, he didn't get much sleep the night before. But he really woke up when he heard a whisper glide past his ears
"Decade" his head darted to wherever he heard it come from, no one in that direction.
"Huh?" he said to himself as just then a earthquake rumbled beneath "What the?" the people on the street all went in to a panic at the sudden quake. Within moments it stopped, Zach quick to pick himself back up using his bike for support. "That was…" he began as just then a scream echoed through the streets. Looking over, he saw a woman running down the street, several others in tow with her, running from what could only be described as a octopus man.
"What the fuck!?" Zach yelled as the people charged past him. In a panic he jumped on his bike and by sheer luck did it start on his first try. He revved it up and went as fast as he could but the monster was gaining. Sweat began to break on Zach's head as it got closer, hearing the gurgling sounds it made as it reached for him. Then out of nowhere a hazy transparent wall formed in front of Zach. He phased through it but the monster hit it like it was solid. Beyond the wall Zach saw that the buildings in town had seemed to change as well as the time of day, seeming like it was almost sunset. Then on the streets he saw monsters walking on them next to people and they weren't freaking out. Before he could ponder this further another hazy wall appeared before him as he passed through it again. Squeezing the breaks hard he stopped in a very sandy wasteland.
"What the hell is going on!?" he yelled out to no one
"Is that your wish?" he heard someone say as he turned around and jumped back seeing a ghostly demon figure "Let me grant it" it said as it got closer to him
"No me!" another one said as it poped up
"NO me!" another one said getting close to Zach as he quickly ran away from it. Freaked out, he jumped back on his bike and revved away as they gave chase
"Just one!" one of them said as Zach just kept looking forward, a look of fear on his face as he saw another wall appear
"Please take me home!" he said as he went through it, this time arriving in a place at night time in front of a building he'd never seen. Stopping Zach, hyperventilating, he tried to process whatever had happened to him.
"If that's how you're going to react to such simple creatures maybe you aren't the right man for the job" someone said as Zach looked at them, it was a man in a black suit and black hair. To some extent he was relived it was a person but at the same time this day had not been so kind to him so he wasn't as relieved
"Who are you?" he asked bluntly as the man grinned
"Just a concerned citizen of these worlds"
"What?" Zach asked
"10 worlds, so alike, yet so different and yet you're the one that ties them all together"
"What are you talking about!?" Zach asked as the man looked at him
"I am Yu, Y u not Y o U. The worlds are colliding together to form one world. If that happens then it's bad news for you. For no one will survive if they are merged"
"What are you talking about!?" Zach yelled angerly, this weird man talking in riddles was pissing him off. "I just want go home, do you know how to do that?" Zach demanded as Yu raised his hand and snapped his fingers
"If that's all then there" he said as another wall appeared with his home in view. A scream could be heard as a girl ran into scene running from the same octopus monster Zach was running from.
"Yuki!" Zach yelled running to the wall and hitting it like it was solid. Yuki heard him and ran over to the wall on her end and pounded on it
"Zach! Zach help!"
"Yuki!" Zach yelled getting back up then looking to Yu "Let me over there!" he said angerly as Yu shook his head
"Only if you promise me something"
"What?" he said as he heard the sloping noises of the monster in his world getting closer. Yuki looked terrified, without much choice Zach said "Okay anything" then Yu stood in front of Zach, almost like he teleported. Zach was pressed against the wall as Yu handed him a weird white box like device with a lens on it and flat white book thing with it
"Take these, and go to the other worlds, learn from the riders"
"Huh?" Zach said as Yu placed the objects in his hands
"Use these to break the wall" he said before evaporating into air. Zach looked at the empty space in awe, what had just happened?
"AHHHH!" he quickly turned around to see Yuki face to face with the monster
"Yuki!" he said as he looked down to the objects as the lens on the white box flashed red, just then so did Zach's eyes as the image of what he had to do flashed through his mind like photo stills. He placed the white object near his waist as a belt wrapped itself around him and it. Then he opened the book like object and pulled out a card inside it. Pulling at the side of his new 'belt buckle' the white box moved on its side revealing a card slot.
"Henshin!" he yelled as he slipped the card into its slot
"KAMEN RIDE…. DECADE" the device yelled as a suit wrapped itself around Zach, a big x marking itself on his left shoulder and chest as his helmet formed. Then seven cards rained down on his helmet embedding themselves in it as his suit flashed with red, black, and white. His two big green bug eyes glew as the wall broke upon his suits completion. It shattered on the monster like glass but didn't hit Yuki at all, it just phased through her. Yuki watched the monster stumble backwards as she turned back to her brother only not to see him, but instead the man from her dreams as she whispered to herself.
"Decade"
So what do you think? Leave a review tell me if it's a dumb idea to adapt decade for a more western style of storytelling or if you think this may have potential. Farewell till next time.
