Alright! Here is my KR Drive story! Also, for those who supports the idea of this story, enjoy the show!
I do not own Kamen Rider Drive or Sword Art Online.
Engine 1: Why Did My Time Stop?
Six months ago the world experienced a sudden stop in time called the Global Freeze. Everything froze as the essence of time itself had stopped, along with everyone else who were leading on with their daily lives. It was a horrible day for the human race.
Cities were ruined and people have lost a lot of loved ones that day, along with other close people with a few remaining. Whatever was happening, it was terrible, it was also the day i died inside. At the time i had no idea that inside the frozen time, there was a lone warrior fighting to save our world. And little did i know...
That I would take his place when that evil returned.
(Present time)
A red car was driving on the road. Said car was was red with black sides and a black padding like square pad on top of it with two white lines-that went the headlights that were shaped as rockets. It had a silver metal plate that came from its right leaving the left a little exposed. It had two extra wheels hanging up acting as the rear wings. And finally, it had a shield-like symbol on it meaning the driver must be a cop.
Inside the car is a young man who looks like he's sixteen with tan skin, black hair, black eyes, wearing a white buttoned shirt a navy blue coat with buttons, matching pants, red slightly loosened tie and black shoes. This is Sosuke Tomari.
It's been six months since the Global Freeze and people are still afraid of the stopping sensation. People have started calling it "Heaviness." As I was driving, I looked to see a poster about Heaviness on a window of a laundromat and some girl's having a chat while one is on her phone, no doubt that she was checking location's about Heaviness. Can't blame them for being scared, my brain feels slow ever since the Global Freeze, like it's stuck in the mud.
-Sosuke Tomari.
Sosuke was now laying down on a field of grass at a park while he put some milk dud to suck on while he relaxes. While he was relaxing he was thinking about Slowdown and what caused it in the first place. Sousuke sighed from being tired of thinking.
"Enough already."he sighed. "I'm done thinking about it!" Sosuke said as he sat up to stretch his arms while he enjoys the peaceful environment. Not until his hand was suddenly cuffed which startled him. "Uwa! What's this?!"
"Insurance!" a female voice said. Sousuke looked to see woman around her early twenties no older than twenty two at best. She has dark brunette hair tied in a bun that was covered by a blue officer hat, which had the same shield symbol on it like the one on his car. She wore a matching outfit, the one that the women wore. She wore a white dress shirt with a red tie, a blue blazer over it and a skirt, and a pair of black boots. This is Kiriko Shijima.
"Kiriko!" Sosuke exclaimed seeing his partner here. He then ran towards his car not wanting to be arrested just to get back to work. Kiriko then took off one of her brown boot's and threw it at the back of Sosuke's head making kneel down and he clutches his head in pain. Kiriko then approached him grabbed the back of his caller, lifted him up and kicked the back of his leg then holding him in submission.
"Kiriko! How'd you find me?" he questioned also confused on how she found him here. Kiriko then forcefully turned him around by holding the other cuff and showed him a notebook where a anime drawing of him is taking a nap. There's also a number 1 in a crown.
"This is your favorite place to slack off." she answered as she showed him the picture.
"So does this make you a fan of mine?" Sousuke asked while standing up, with his body bending down. "Or maybe my manager?
"It's just work." Kiriko answered. "Come on. I'm taking you into the department."she finished as she started to put her boot back on while holding on to the other end of the cuff's.
"Well you don't need to handcuff me!" Sosuke pointed out. "You never smile either."he finished which made Kiriko look at the teenage cop for a moment.
(Kuruma Driving School)
"I can't stand your type... OW!" Sosuke said as Kiriko pushed him towards their work place, which is actually a police driving school or just some DMV place. This is where other officers and detectives work at too. Sosuke is actually a little bit embarrassed to work at a place that's practically a driving school/police station.
(Special Investigation Unit/Office Room)
Sosuke stepped into the office room with Kiriko as they spotted their other co-workers... clapping.
"Woo! Nice Catch!" the Special Investigation Unit Police Chief, Jun Honganji said. He is man in his late forties or so with gelled slick black hair, brown eyes, and wore the men's uniform with a black leather jacket over the dress shirt. Also, he has this weird fascination with fortune telling and Feng Shui.
"Well done Kiriko-chan!" Jun started as he approached her with a smile. "It's a good thing you were wearing that color! Since your lucky color is blue today!" he finished while he showed her the screen that had a fortune telling app and her name was colored in blue.
"You really do rely on fortune telling for your daily life, chief." Sosuke commented as Jun smiled at the boy.
"Alright! Since you've finally caught little Mr. Truant: it's time for my announcement!" Jun announced getting everyone's attention and Sosuke sat on his desk. "We of the Special Investigation Unit are finally going to work on a real active investigation! *Frowny face*, right?" Everyone looked at him awkwardly because of the complaint in his tone sounding like a child.
"Eh?" the mechanical worker of the group, Rinna Sawagami questioned. She's an attractive woman who can catch the attention of any man as they would fall head over heels for her. Literally. She had long brunette hair, matching eyes, and wore a long white lab coat indicating that she's in the science field of sorts.
"You don't want to?" the Network Researcher, Kyu Saijo asked while Jun shook his head silly.
Kyu's nerdish man who specializes in doing all of the research for the team and tells them where they need to go for leads. He also has an odd obsession with occult stuff that just seems impossible to find, and he carries these creepy dolls with him that just creep people out sometimes. Kyu wore a white shirt with yellow lines and red buttoned up shirt along with green shorts that added more to his nerdish appearance.
"Work on an investigation?" Sosuke questioned being very curious. "For what case?"
"You don't know?" Kyu asked, though it would be expected of Sosuke that he wouldn't know. "This is what happens when you don't attend meetings."he said while getting his IPad. "There have been multiple attempted murders at this site within the past week." Kyu said while showing Sosuke a picture of a random location. "The Gravity Surge phenomenon frequently occurs there."he said while Jun pulls up a board that had the words Gravity Surge on it.
"Gravity Surge?" Sosuke lazily asked which made people tip a bit.
"Is that all you heard?!" Kyu exclaimed.
"Oh. You mean Heaviness?" Sosuke realized before looking to Rinna. "Did you name it Rinna-san?"
"That's right."the scientist answered. "Don't forget it, Sosuke-kun."she said while waving a device at him.
"Lieutenant Otta from the Investigation First Division Unit will be assisting us as our go-between." Jun explained on who will be helping them out.
That just got the teenage cop's attention.
"Lieutenant Otta!?" Sosuke exclaimed while standing up as he recognized the name. "Gen-san, huh?" Gen Otta is a bit of a foul mouthed policeman and Sousuke is a bit embarrassed of him. "If he is our go-between, more and more people are going to give the Special Investigation Unit the cold shoulder."he said as he started to leave the room.
Sosuke is now outside in his red car thinking about the meeting.
"A real investigation huh?" he thought out loud. "Maybe I'll be able to move on" he said as remember a few incidents. "Hopefully, it won't be like SAO." Let it be known that Sosuke's a survivor from the virtual game Sword Art Online, when he heard the announcement that Akihiko Kayaba told to those who were playing the game; he was pretty much shocked to see that he wanted the players to beat the game in order to get out of it.
But then a few months later, he was surprised to know that some players were trapped in the virtual world. But the employee's of the man who was responsible, Sugou Nobuyuki, confessed to their bosses crimes thus turning him into the police. In truth, Sosuke was glad that douchebag, in his opinion, was arrested.
"Aw well. I'm done thinking about it." the teen detective said as he placed his hands behind his head.
"Have you decided to step forward and become a warrior yet?" a male disembodied voice asked that snapped the teen out of his relaxed state.
"You again..." Sousuke sighed. Ever since he's got this car, he's been hearing this voice again and again. He even slapped himself once to make sure he was not crazy. "Whoever you are, you're persistent."he said as he looked around the car to see where the voice was coming from.
"Of course I am." the voice said to him. "I'm trying to make the choice easier. Getting you assigned to the Special Crimes Unit not to mention getting you this car."
"Ask someone else." Sosuke said despite the fact it was nice for the voice to get him assigned to the unit that his father was on. "I'm exactly what I seem like... a lazy washout."
"No you are something special." The voice said. "You've just forgotten how to start your engine."
"How to start my engine huh?" Sosuke mused out loud. To him, the voice did had a point, he really needed to get his inspiration back and he loves being a policeman despite the responsibilities, he also made sure to have some time for him to be a teen his age and have a good life. Also, he's lucky enough that he doesn't have to do any reports… until he's 20 that is.
(Skate Park)
Everyone was having fun as skateboarders were showing off their cool tricks to all of their friends and others, who happened to pass and wanted to watch them perform.
There were two people, a teen boy and girl who were having fun as they watched the skaters do their tricks as they just laughed and have fun.
The boy had pulled out his phone wanting to call one of his friends, but then…something had happened. Before anyone knew it, a pink wave of light suddenly appeared as the skate area suddenly wobbled as if it were something like liquid. However, this only lasted for a short second before everything started to move at normal speed again.
"Eh?" the girl questioned in surprise. "Was that a…"
"Heaviness?" the boy finished as he looked down at his phone only to see the warning signal. "It is…"
Suddenly both of them heard footsteps approaching their direction. They looked to see a man with shoulder length, shaggy hair wearing a gray A-shirt, green hoodie vest, and black pants. He took off his hood as proceed towards them and gave a smirk.
"Found it." Sosuke said. After that whole 'Engine Starting' business, he decided to look for the voice's source, while he was looking for it, he spotted something that looked like a face, only that it was just glowing red lights that formed a face. Whatever it was he figured that this is where the voice is coming from. He got a closer look at it only to see that it was some kind of silver object with the front design of a car, which had yellow headlights, speed meters with two behind a larger one that was black with the red "S" on it. Also, it had a red button on side that said "Press" and finally it has this red key-like object that seems to be twistable or at least he hopped it did.
"The voice is coming from here." Sosuke observed.
"Exactly!" it said in english and it made a smiley face. "You are correct." it finished while Sosuke picked it up from the small area in front of the car, while it was off; it also had a seatbelt-like strap on it.
"Well..." Sosuke was interrupted when he felt movement in his hands and realized it was the device. "Huh? Wha-" After a bit of struggling, the strapped itself on Sousuke's waist like a... belt?
"What's this!?" Sousuke exclaimed while trying to take the belt off of him, but it had a tight grip.
"Too bad." the belt said.
"Get off!"
"I am a belt." the belt said while smiling before it turned it's screen off.
"A belt?" Sosuke questioned. Though the red strap that the belt does prove that it's a… well, belt. He heard some knocking on the window and he saw Kiriko outside the car, he quickly hid the belt in his coat and rolled down the window. "What's up Kiriko?"
"We've been given the order to move out. There's been another attempted murder." Kiriko explained. "We'll meet with Lieutenant Otta at the scene. I've transferred the location to your navigation." she finished while a mark of the location appeared on the Tridorons GPS.
"So they're on the move? Let's hurry to the scene." the belt advised while Kiriko got into her own car.
"Don't joke around! Get off me." Sosuke said. He'd prefer to not hang around with the belt while he's on a case.
"Can't be helped. Changing drivers." the belt said as the seatbelts suddenly fasten themselves on their own, much to Sosuke's surprise.
"Why did it fasten on it's own!?" Sosuke questioned as he tried to get the seatbelts off him. Suddenly, the red car's engine started on it's own, surprising him yet again. The car then started moving on it's own. "No way!" he exclaimed as the car was moving towards the location.
"Hey! Hey Hey!" The car didn't stop at his commands, because he then realized the belt was controlling it.
(Skate Park)
Members of the First Division was investigating the area, a police officer noticed two people.
"Gen-san, the Metro Special Unit is here." the officer said looking at them.
"It's that punk Sosuke's team, isn't it?" Genpachirou Otta, the Metro Police Investigation First Division Lieutenant, mused while looking at the officer. Gen then noticed two officers coming his way and he couldn't believe what he was seeing. "Eh?"
The two officers were Sosuke and Kiriko and they were wearing some metal hat-like thing with red alarms on it, yellow and pink light bulbs, and it had some yellow round thing on it that he can't even begin to know what it is or what it's called. Plus, there was some kind of metal backpack-like machine, and a metal gun-like spry thing that has a bunch of antennas sticking out of it.
"Is that some kind of cosplay?" a police officer asked.
"Good work!" he said to the cops working hard. "Gen-san, it's been a while." the teen detective said, the Lieutenant looked at him for a moment.
"Don't talk to me; you're embarrassing!" Genpachiro said to Sosuke.
"I agree." the police officer that was talking to him said.
"This doohickey is the worst. It's supposed to sense Gravity Surge particles." Sosuke informed before he made his way over to the victim on the stretcher who was oddly red all over the place. He took off the helmet, much to his relief, and examined the body looking at it curiously while raising a brow. "The hell happened to this corpse…?"
"He's not dead. That's how we found four other victims this week. All of them were red once we had found them." Lieutenant Otta said, walking behind Sosuke, looked at him.
"Got any idea who or what might have caused this?" he asked.
"Not sure. But whoever the killer is, I'm positive that he's using some kind of weird device to do this to them." the older man said. "And there's no way I'm going to believe in this Heaviness crap. It doesn't even exist, not like we need you guys to take over for my investigation if it is."
Sousuke sighed as he walked away to investigate more looked down on the ground and spotted a piece of paper colored silver that must have been from some sort of wrapper.
"A scrap of paper?" he questioned, just as he was about to continue his investigation, the helmet began to go haywire as the alarms were getting louder and louder
"Hey, keep it down!" Gen said being annoyed and Kiriko's helmet started to go haywire too.
"Be cautious Sosuke! The culprit is still nearby." the Belt warned as him as a pink wave appeared and it made everyone slow down and feel heavy as if they were wearing weights around their bodies.
"The Heaviness!"
"This is it!?" Genpachiro yelled in his mind with his mouth opened wide. Sosuke decided to look around for the source of the Heaviness and he spotted a man walking casually around.
"That guy! He can still move normally in the middle of a Gravity Surge?" Sosuke thought as he watched to man who was walking freely through the Gravity Surge, until he suddenly was enveloped into some red digital-like energy concealing his whole body transforming into some kind of monster. The teen was surprised as said eyes had widened at the sight.
Standing before him is a humanoid robot-like monster, its body was all black; the fingertips were silver metal with holes that would appear to look or act like a gun's barrel where it would shoot bullets from, and its head was white with some features of a cobra to it with the mouth in front, and the neck ribs extending to the sides of its head. Oddly enough, Sosuke also spotted the numbers 029 on it chest. This is a Roidmude, a Cobra-Type.
"A monster!" Sosuke yelled in his mind, while the Cobra-Type Roidmude noticed the teen looking at him. He walked over to him and punched him in the face then kicked Sosuke away and he landed on his back.
"Well, don't you look like a lively one now." the Cobra-Type Roidmude creature said as he grabbed Sosuke by the neck and effortlessly lifted him up with one arm.
"Shift Cars, Assemble!" the belt commanded as multiple sounds of horns were heard honking.
The Cobra-Type Roidmude looked to see where the honking was coming from until he hit by a small orange blur. Sosuke was soon released from his grip one he was knocked back by one of those small cars.
The orange Shift Car known as Max Flare, which passed by the teen detective, continued to honk as if to warn the AI monster that if he came any closer to Sosuke; he will attack him. Its road had burned in flames showing that it meant business. The Cobra-Type Roidmude growled as he raised his fingers and began to shoot all three Shift Cars once they began to drive on the ground. Of course, he wasn't able to hit them due to how agile they were with their speed. Max Flare created its road and quickly went up to the Roidmude in the face, this knocking it back with brute force.
Number 029 flew back until his behind had landed on the ground, but it quickly felt pain on his behind and immediately stood up shouting in pain. He looked down to see the green Shift Car known as Funky Spike. He was about to shoot the Shift Car when purple flying projectiles of shurikens came flying at him, hitting his face. The purple Shift Car dubbed as Midnight Shadow continued to fire more of its attacks at him.
Max Flare saw this as an opportunity to combine his attacks with his comrades. He created his tracks that soon burned in flames, creating a ring of fiery roads around him. The Cobra-Type Roidmude 029 looked confused as the orange Shift Car jumped off its road. Midnight Shadow went towards the fiery road ring and fired its shuriken which soon were ignited in flames powering up its attacks. The black robotic cobra scoffed he created a shield with its hand protecting him from the attacks, it pushed him back somewhat, but he still stood nonetheless. Once his guard was down, Funky Spike quickly moved as it extended the spikes from its car form and spun around into the fire ring; enveloping it in flames before hitting the Roidmude back.
"Ah, screw this!" the Cobra-Type Roidmude 029 shouted before shooting his bullets on the ground, smoke occurred and once it was clear he was already gone. The Shift Cars decided to take their leave as well.
Soon, everything turned back to normal and everyone started to move normally.
"What was that just now?" Otta questioned.
"Th-there was a monster behind…" the two policemen said pointing behind him
"Huh?"
"What were those cars just now?" Sosuke questioned as he stood up.
"Comrades." the belt said.
"Yours?" Sousuke asked as he looked down at the belt.
"No, yours." the belt said with a smile.
But while everyone else was trying to calm down and Sosuke was thinking about that AI monster, they were ALL unaware that a hooded figure was watching the entire thing before he left to who know's where.
(Special Unit HQ)
"Nice to meet you, Lieutenant Otta." Rinna playfully said while she had a fake microphone and walked towards a table then sat next to him. "How did you like your first Gravity Surge?" she asked in a playful tone while she got close to Genpachiro, much to his discomfort.
"I still don't believe in them!" Gen denied while trying to look professional, he backed away a bit before he hit a locker and a box fell on his head.
"What an unreasonable guy…" Kyu said holding up his puppet. "The Gravity Surge is a portent of the monsters' destructive actions." He finished before sitting at Jun's desk. "It's common knowledge on the net!"
"Absurd! I didn't see it!" Gen denied as he stood up after slamming his hands on the table. "I don't believe in things I can't see!" That was when Sosuke came in.
"Let me help you open your eyes then, Gen-san." Sosuke said as he entered the room and held up a piece of paper and then placed it down. Everyone looked down at it to see that it's the guy from the Skate Park.
"Hey, that's…" Gen started.
"A composite I created." Sosuke explained. "Now we've got to find him." Sosuke said before fixing his tie. Kiriko's eyes widened seeing as she know's what that means. Sosuke then left the room to find him.
"Hey wait! You trying to leave a First Division guy behind!?" Gen shouted before running out the door so he could that that man before he does.
"It looks like he's shifted into gear." Kiriko said referring to Sosuke.
"Gear? What gear?" Rinna asked in a curious tone.
"His brains gear. His engine might have started…" Kiriko explained before she opened her notebook, which showed a picture of Sosuke straightening his necktie and a sticker that has a 2 on it. Now she placed a sticker that has a three over it.
"I've heard that he's a Sword Art Online survivor." Jun said which caught Kyu's attention.
"THE Sword Art Online!?"
"Yeah. And this is the first I've see Tomari-chan like this." Jun said knowing that the fortune he took of the teen detective was right.
"Are we going to run there?" the belt asked.
"I can't trust your driving." Sosuke pointed out. He didn't want to talk right now, because he was busy with the case, but he's somewhat happy that he might be slowly getting his inspiration as a policeman back. Truth be told, he hasn't been excited to solve a case since the Global Freeze.
'I can almost break through…' Sousuke thought as he continued to run. '...this barrier that's in my way!' he was soon at a cafe, where he was asking for some information from a waiter about the man, he took a picture from her and the same guy is in it, only that he's bald.
"Masuda Nobuo. A regular customer of that sports club." Sosuke noted as they were soon at the sports club that Masuda goes to. "It's definitely him." he said as he looked at the picture of him and the one of the guys who he interviewed.
"His face is similar but the hair is different." the belt said feeling unsure. "Plus the physique is almost like a completely different person." he said while remembering what type of body Masuda had when they saw him earlier at the skate park. When they saw him, he seemed to be a little less muscular than the guy in the photo.
"Shut up!" Sousuke whispered. He then spotted their target and some guy wearing a track suit came out of the gym and jogged towards the opposite direction.
Masuda followed after him, while Sosuke stayed close behind and followed them.
The man continued to jog as he started to slow down and everything around him was in slow motion.
"Eh? The Heaviness?" he said knowing full well that a Heaviness means that something bad is about to happen. Everything suddenly went back into normal speed as he felt his movements returning to him.
The jogger felt a presence behind him and turned to see a familiar face. Masuda pulled down his hood and revealed his face.
"Masuda-kun?" the man said, happy to see a familiar face. "You look so different I didn't know who you were! You haven't been coming around lately, what's up?"
"I've been hunting humans." he said before transforming into the Cobra-Type Roidmude that Sosuke encountered. He charged after the man and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and lifted him up.
"Help me!" he cried.
"Stop!" The Cobra-Type Roidmude turned to look at a familiar face. It was Sosuke, who was coming his Roidmude released a pink wave of energy from his mouth and a Heaviness started to happen, the Cobra-Type Roidmude then started to turn the man's skin red.
"Oh no!" the belt exclaimed. "Max Flare!" the belt called out before the horn of Max Flare was heard it rode towards Sousuke, and attached itself on the side of the belt. When it did a silver holder with three slots appeared on the side of the belt.
Sosuke felt himself moving at normal speeds again as he looked at himself to confirm this. "I can move!"
"Thanks to the power of the Shift Cars." the Belt explained. Sosuke, deciding to ask questions later, ran towards the Cobra-Type Roidmude.
"Let him go!" Sosuke exclaimed as he grabbed the Cobra-Type Roidmude in attempt to push him away from the man, but the Roidmude smacked his arms away and kicked the teenage detective in the gut, making him roll around the ground. Sosuke grunted in pain, seeing how his opponent is made of metal. In truth, he hasn't fought any monster's since SAO and he's a bit hesitant to play any other virtual games since he got out of that death game.
"Even if I can move, at this rate." Sosuke said getting up. He looked to his left to see two more Roidmudes, who jumped and one resembles a bat while the other resembles a spider and they shot purple energy bullets. Sosuke rolled out of the way and got into combat with the two Roidmudes, he kicked the Spider-Type Roidmude away and blocked a punch from the Bat-Type Roidmude but said monster kicked Sosuke to the ground while the Spider-Type Roidmude picked him up and threw him a few feet away.
"So he has friends?" the belt noted. Sosuke grunted in pain then he got up, but before he could run; the two Roidmudes that had stopped him had fired a pink wave and his body once again slowed down. The Cobra-Type Roidmude went back to work by turning the man completely red, Sousuke stared at him and the man's hand almost turned completely red, at this; a horrible memory that relates to SAO played in his head.
'It's no use! I failed to save someone again!' he thought as he tried to move. The two Roidmudes took aim and fired at Sosuke but before their shots could even get close to him, the red car dubbed as Tridoron had come to rescue and defended him from the bullets.
Upset that they weren't able to kill their prey, the two charged towards the car but when they got close the door opened as Kiriko stepped out and pulled out her gun shooting them. Sousuke looked at her with widen eyes wondering what she was doing here while she fired her gun at them. The bullets had no effect of course, but the force alone was somewhat enough to push them back.
Kiriko continued to fire and then stopped as the two Roidmudes lifted up their arms and were about to fire at her. The police woman jumped over the hood of Tridoron and proceeded to shoot them. The Cobra-Type Roidmude threw his victim down, angered that they aren't able to get rid of these two distractions!
Sosuke then noticed a silver holder on Kiriko's belt and it had Funky Spike and Midnight Shadow on it.
"Kiriko, what…!?" Sosuke uttered seeing his partner here.
"What are you doing, Tomari-san!" she went over to him and pointed at belt. "You're engine started right? So fight with him!"
"Why do you know about this belt?" Sosuke questioned as the belt's voice interrupted.
"Tridoron, shoot!" he commanded as Tridoron automatically started to move and fired lasers from its headlights at the two Roidmudes. Kiriko stood in front of him, pointing her gun at them on standby.
"Hey belt!" Sosuke called out.
"How rude." the belt frowned, not liking how he just demanded for him like that.
"Fine, Mr. Belt! What do I do?" Sousuke asked.
"Transform." the belt, now Mr. Belt, answered.
"Transform?" he questioned wondering what Mr. Belt was talking about.
"You don't like letting other people drive, correct? Then you must manage it yourself." Sosukespotted a red coming towards him, riding on the materializing road. It came down on his left wrist as a brace was now there, and in his right hand he held a red race car. "Rotate the Shift Car. Then push it into the lever on the Shift Brace."
Kiriko went up to him and twisted the key on Mr. Belt as techno music started to play. Sosuke observed the car in his hand and twisted the rear around. "Into the lever, like this?" Sosuke said as he placed the car into the brace.
"You lost something precious in the past, but you can save it now." Mr. Belt continued. "As long as you're comrades and I are here, you can move faster than anyone even in the midst of a Gravity Surge. That is the warrior Drive!"
"In that case…" Sosuke started as he looked at his opponents and stepped forward. "If I start driving here, I can save that man! I'm done thinking about it!" Sosuke then thrust his arm forward and shouted.
"Henshin!"
He grabbed and pushed the lever.
Sosuke was soon enveloped in a holographic cylinder that concealed his whole body, and then steam came out. When the hologram and steam disappeared, a new figure stood in his place. He was now clad in red armor that greatly resembled a car. He wore a black bodysuit with white lines that ran down his arms and legs, wore red boots, silver knee pads, red gauntlets, and silver wristbands however since the brace occupied the left band there was a red line over it unlike the right which showed more of the silver. The shoulders were protected by pointed pads and he wore red chest armor that had a black line across it.
Tridon produced a wheel from its tires and went towards his chest that now had a tire with a red line on it, which gave him more of a racer feature. Finally his helmet greatly resembled that of car, it was colored red with two white lines that left a thin blue line that hardly noticeable, the eyes were that of a car's headlights, a silver "R" on the forehead, the top of his head had a rear wing giving him more that race car feature, and finally a silver mouthpiece.
This is Kamen Rider Drive!
"DRIVE: TYPE SPEED!"
Mr. Belt's screen then showed a red circled "S" while some upbeat jazz music played.
(Kamen Rider Drive OST: Surprise DRIVE)
"Who the hell are you?" the Cobra-Type Roidmude demanded.
"Sorry, I don't know either." Drive plainly answered while checking himself out. "This is my first ride." he finished as he looked at his enemies.
"Monsters!" Drive then leaned on his left leg. "Hitoppashiri tsukiaeyo! (Let's go for a ride!)" he announced before charging.
While Drive was running, he nee kicked a running Bat-Type Roidmude in the gut before punching the chest and grabbed the Bat-Type Roidmude's arm, who tried to attack from behind, and Drive punched him in the side before the Bat-Type Roidmude tried to punch Drive with his other arm but Drive grabbed the wrist and elbow punched the Bat-Type Roidmude on the side. The Spider-Type Roidmude tried to kick Drive, but the race car warrior pushed the Bat-Type Roidmude away and grabbed his foot with his right hand then used his left hand to hit the Spider-Type Roidmude in the face. Acting on instinct; Drive held the Spider-Type Roidmude's leg with both his hands and kicked the Bat-Type Roidmude, who was gonna do an attack from behind, in the side then Drive then sweep kicked the Spider-Type Roidmude in the foot, making him fall down.
Just when Drive was about to get up, his kicked to the ground by the Cobra-Type Roidmude, Drive used his good reflexes to get up quick and dodged a punch from the Cobra-Type Roidmude but Drive was punched twice by the Cobra-Type Roidmude and he was kicked by him. The Cobra-Type Roidmude then blasted some red energy at Drive, sending him near a warehouse. The Bat-Type and Spider-Type Roidmudes jumped into the air and shot Drive, making some sparks come off and making him yell in pain.
"Speed up with the Shift Lever!" Mr. Belt advised. Drive twisted the key and then pulled the lever three times before Mr. Belt announced…
"SP-SP-SPEED!"
Drive's wheel began to rapidly spin as the Bat and Spider-Type Roidmudes began fire at him. On the move, Drive quickly got on the ground and started to let the wheel do its work as he came within range of them. With a leg sweep, he sent them in midair as he quickly stood on his feet and threw multiple punches at them. His fist were moving faster and faster as a projection of a speed meter appeared able to tell how fast he was punching.
"So fast!" Drive said impressed on how much better his body has become by wearing this suit. He continued his assault and then threw one last punch, sending them rolling on the ground towards the Cobra-Type Roidmude.
"I'm your opponent!" the Cobra-Type Roidmude said as he kicked them to the side before rushing towards Drive. Drive deflected two blow's from the Cobra-Type Roidmude but then he was punched twice in the chest, but the second punch was strong enough to send him flying away with more sparks coming off him.
(End song)
"Spike, Shadow, help Drive." Kiriko, who was watching the fight, took out the two Shift Cars as they rushed over to Drive's aid. "Fight on, Drive!"
Drive was thrown inside a warehouse by the Cobra-Type Roidmude that proceeded towards him. Drive got back up as he was getting ready for the Roidmude, but then Spike and Shadow knocked him back as they into the two free slots on the holder.
"If you change Shift Cars, you can also change the tire's ability." Mr. Belt advised.
"Nice. The road just got wider." Drive commented before twisting the key. While he got the Max Flare Shift Car put, some upbeat jazz music played on Mr. Belt before flipping the lever of Max Flare. He inserted the car into the brace and pushed the lever.
"TIRE KOUKAN!"
"Tire Koukan?" he questioned, looking down at Mr. Belt hopping he would answer that. However his question was soon answered when Tridoron produced another tire, which was engulfed in flames aiming at the Cobra-Type Roidmude hitting him before going over to Drive, who ducked thinking the tire was gonna burn him before coming back, who's tire was replaced by an orange one.
"MAX FLARE!"
"Awesome." mused Drive, looking at his new tire. The Roidmude charged at Drive and so did he, Drive punched the Cobra-Type Roidmude, while his fist was covered in fire, in the chest, knee kicked him in the gut and punched him again which was powerful enough to send him flying. Drive pulled the lever thrice.
"FL-FL-FLARE!"
A fire wheel materialized on his left hand as he kicked towards the Roidmude. Once the flaming wheel hit, the flames created a tornado around him which lifted him up in the air sending him out of the building. The Cobra-Type Roidmude landed outside and he see's Drive walking towards him, while he did some kind of hand gesture, but the Bat and Spider Type charged at him once they saw him out of the building. Drive countered their attacks pushing them back. He grabbed a hold of the Bat-Type Roidmude's arm after it attempted to hit him; Drive pulled Max Flare out and grabbed Spike.
The Bat-Type Roimude was pushed back by Drive who twisted the key and flipped the lever of Spike, and then inserted it into the Shift Brace.
"TIRE KOUKAN!"
Drive's Max Flare wheel was replaced by a green one with spikes on it.
"FUNKY SPIKE!"
He jumped over them and fired a barrage of spikes from his chest aiming at the Roidmudes. Drive landed behind him as the Spider-Type attempted to hit him. He grabbed the Roidmude and turned him around, then pulled the lever thrice.
"SP-SP-SPIKE!"
The Funky Spike wheel spun around on Drive's chest as it hit the Spider-Type Roidmude's back, thus destroying it as the numbers 042 came flying out of its body. Drive would question that later as he had two more to deal with.
Drive exchanged Funky Spike for Shadow and soon made the tire change.
"TIRE KOUKAN!"
Drive's chest was replaced by a purple wheel that greatly resembled a shuriken.
"MIDNIGHT SHADOW!"
Drive quickly pulled the lever thrice.
"SH-SH-SHADOW!"
A purple projectile of a shuriken appeared on Drive's hand as he turned to see two of the remaining Roidmudes coming after him. Drive quickly evaded their attacks and threw the shuriken at the Spider-Type who soon exploded after the shuriken had hit.
Drive and the Cobra-Type Roidmude watched as the floating numbers had exploded causing the last Roidmude to growl at him. He charged after Drive who countered the punches he was sending at him
"Use the Speed Tire to finish him off!" Mr. Belt instructed as Drive quickly changed Shadows with the Speed Shift Car.
"ALL TIRE ATTACK!"
The Flare, Spike, and Speed tires all came out at once as the Speed Tire knocked the Shadow tire out of Drive's chest that soon joined the other tires on attacking the Roidmude. Drive pressed the button on the Shift Brace.
"HISSATSU!"
Four tires appeared around the Roidmude as they spun and made contact with it. Drive pulled the lever once.
"FULL THROTTLE: SPEED!"
Drive flicked his wrist as Tridoron began to move around him going faster and faster, until it was nothing but a red blur. The four tires around the Roidmude sent him towards Drive direction, who began to jump into the blur. Once the Roidmude was trapped in the center he was being kicked by Drive appearing on all sides.
"YAH!" Drive shouted kicking the Roidmude before landing on his feet. Tridoron appeared next to him after the Roidmude had exploded behind him.
Drive ran over to Kiriko who was watching over the unconscious man, the man's skin turned back to normal and Drive let out a relieved sigh before taking out the Shift Car, which made it turn back to Sosuke.
"Nice Drive!" Mr. Belt smiled.
"I saved him." Sosuke said in a relieved tone as he looked at the man.
"Yes. That's your power." Mr. Belt said.
Something then caught Sosuke's eye, he spotted another piece of paper and grabbed it. With a feeling that's missing something.
"Hey Kiriko, where the heck are you taking me?" Sosuke questined as he was being pulled by Kiriko into the hallways of Kuruma Driving school hallways.
Kiriko removed a few boxes and then opened a door behind it. Sosuke wondered where that leads to before they walked down the stairs and ended up inside a garage/auto-shop like room where the Tridoron was at.
"Eh…?" he questioned while he was looking around the place before looking at Mr. Belt who was attached to some kind of mover.
"Welcome to the Drive Pit." he smiled. "This is our base."
"So Kiriko was acting as your agent? No wonder she acted so cold." Sosuke pointed out.
"Our existence is a secret even from the Special Investigation Unit." Kiriko explained.
"The other victims have all returned to normal. Quite the achievement for you're first battle." Mr. Belt said.
"I dunno about that." Sosuke said.
"Eh?"
"Was the monster really trying to kill him?" Sosuke said recalling the Cobra-Type Roidmude's actions before pulling out the two bags with the pieces of paper inside them. "I get the feeling this case isn't over yet."
"Damn…" number 029 said as he struggled to move his disembodied form. He fell on a stairway too weak to move. He soon heard footsteps walking over to him.
"Do you want a new body, number 029?" asked a man wearing a red and had brown hair, holding up a black car similar to the Shift Cars. The man then was about to place the black car next the 029 but he heard someone else's footsteps and he saw a hooded figure.
"Why don't you let me handle this one for you?" the hooded man said as he took out his own black car.
"Oh?" the man mused as he watched the hooded figure place the car next to 029 and the number went inside it and the car glowed in a ball of light. The red man then looked at the hooded man. "No idea who you are though."
"Call me Zoruku." the hooded figure introduced. "It's nice to meet you Heart." he said as he did a bow.
"So you know my name, huh?" Heart mused at Tojo before transforming into his Roidmude form. "I'm sorry, even though you know my name I simply cannot let you leave out of here alive."
"I figured you would say something like that." Zoruku chuckled. "But...before we start off this little match how about we discuss some very important things first? I'm sure you would love to know some information I have."
Heart changes back to his human form as he chuckles at Zoruku. "Well then by all mean, enlighten me."
Zoruku smirked.
And done! Whoo! Hoped you love this story! See ya!
