*Hey Retsu, I heard from the others that you finally admitted to always remembering who you are*
*Yeah, I figure it might be best now for you to know the truth*
*I was wondering if you knew how to spar?*
*Yes I am quite familiar with sparring*
*Okay, after dinner I want to see your skills for my peace of mind, you have had me worried for two years now ever since we found you and you woke up faking amnesia*
Once dinner was eaten and the two knew the food had settled Kelsey and Retsu started sparring and Kelsey quickly realized that Retsu knew more than basic self defense moves and that he was holding back because she could feel the power behind his blows if he went all out due to her own special abilities. Kelsey also realized that Retsu had never seen her special training that she did every day during the evenings when she knew most everyone else was asleep, because she also did the special training early in the morning when it was just the skeletal staff doing basic monitoring. As she then continued she realized just why his movements seemed so familiar yet slightly off at the same time, back when she was only seven years old she and her family had learned about Japanese defenders called Kamen Riders and they soon saw their battles and fighting styles. After a year of observation a representative met with several of the Kamen Riders and asked if they would be willing to partner with the EDC and more importantly the Cybertronians. In return the Kamen Riders revealed that they had kept an eye on both the EDC and the Cybertronians since the alliance between the two groups fully happened years before Kelsey was even born and had only been waiting for the invitation that they were now being given. Once both groups were unofficially allies (the Cybertronians easily realized that a formal contract with the Kamen Riders just wouldn't work because of how the Kamen Riders functioned and the fact that they fought shadow groups more often then not while the EDC dealt with alien enemies primarily and also making allies out of alien species if at all possible. As such the EDC only knew their Kamen Rider identity not their civilian names) each Kamen Rider showed their fighting styles and also on occasion teamwork so that both sides knew what to expect from the other if they ever fought together. The Kamen Riders had been partially informed about Kelsey but her family was as secretive as ever about her and never gave away her gender, age or full affiliation with the EDC, all the Kamen Riders knew was that there was a person allied with the EDC that had special abilities. Kelsey on the other hand knew all about the Kamen Riders because she had to know and now seeing the way Retsu fought she realized just who Retsu truly was in regards to his Rider name and as such decided to take things up a notch
*Arranyan air burst!*
Kelsey pushed her arms forward and a burst of air hit Retsu who was surprised, but Kelsey didn't let up, she then used a more dangerous attack knowing he would block it
*Arranyan Winds!*
When Kelsey declared that attack Retsu dodged it while becoming Kamen Rider Kuuga to the shock of everyone observing the fight
*Kuuga, what are you doing in America?*
*I'll explain later, including my civilian identity, so you're the one we were told was allowed to stay in any fight even if we tell them to get out of the area, just how old are you?*
*Fourteen...no wait I'm fifteen now almost forgot I had my birthday recently*
*How did you forget that?*
*How busy have I been up to this point in time?*
*Good point*
*So all out now?*
*Not quite, I am not using gold power or final form, way, way to destructive*
*Makes sense, but in normal forms all out*
*Only using Red*
*Nope, I want all your forms*
*Okay, most of my forms use weapons, like a gun, sword, or staff*
*We have each weapon available at all times if you would just look around you*
The two then continue to spar until finally Kelsey taps out
*I'm out Kuuga, my abilities help me but at the same time they drain me of energy*
*So it wasn't my imagination that you were getting weaker
*No it wasn't, for a spar I will reveal my weakness a lot sooner than if I was fighting for real and alone, if I was fighting using my abilities constantly and was also around other EDC enemies I would reveal my exhaustion only because EDC officers are trained to get people to safety before engaging the enemy, or well more like one or two are getting people to safety while the rest are providing cover*
*Only two?*
*Maximum is five depending on crowd size*
*Well for now I guess it's time for me to explain a few things, like who I am and why for the past two years I have faked amnesia and had your family create my current identity*
*O...kay*
Kelsey starts coughing and holding her left side
*Are you okay?*
(Groans) *I think I have some cracked ribs, no lung puncture this time at least*
*You see the medics first, then I'll start explaining because you need to be involved*
*Fine by me*
They head to the medical room and the doctor there sees both Kelsey and Retsu and simply sighs
*I heard about the spar, which one of you idiots are hurt?*
"That would be me doctor, I'm pretty sure I have cracked ribs, not sure what other injuries I have but no lung puncture this time at least, I'm sure you remember last time easily enough"
(Sighs) "OK on the bed, get undressed and I'll get the machine set up, just what did you two do for you to be injured?"
"Full on spar, he knows how to fight and fight dirty if need be, so do I but honestly he got in more hits then I did"
Fifteen minutes later the x-rays showed that Kelsey did indeed have cracked, but not broken ribs, she also had a broken wrist that she thought was a severe sprain, everything else was pure bruising
"Okay your estimates about your injuries were fairly accurate, minus the broken wrist you thought was a sprain. Due to the fact that you heal faster than normal people you'll be fine sooner than eight weeks, but from the injuries I see it's still going to take at least six weeks for the wrist and three weeks for the ribs instead of the usual six. As such I am ordering you not to do any strenuous activity until your ribs at the very least are completely healed, and you are getting an x-ray for proof of healing"
"Understood doctor" (Japanese) *Okay Retsu, I'm allowed to leave medical, you can start explaining things to everyone*
*Only once I see discharge papers signed*
*That doesn't happen remember?*
*Oh yes it does*
"He's right Kerenai, you do still have to sign the papers, and I want to put a wrap on your ribs since you already have a wrist cast"
Ten minutes later those that were needed were in the conference room
