A graveyard was normally a place where many would fear to go, unless they really had to. Most people would justify it as reluctance to discuss or think about lost loved ones. Others would just put it down to fear of ghosts. But Koutarou Minami was not one of either of these groups. For him, a graveyard was a place to acknowledge the people he had failed to save, both as Kamen Rider Black and later as Kamen Rider Black RX. By acknowledging the deaths that had occurred on his watch, he was reminded that he still had room to improve. In particular, there were a few deaths that Koutarou was here to acknowledge.
However, as he made his way to the first grave, he heard a sound behind him. Dropping the flowers that he had brought with him, he began to look around. "Come out.", Koutarou cried. "I know you're there." Sure enough, a figure emerged, one he narrowly recognised. "Kaima Robot Scryde? That's impossible. I destroyed you."
Kaima Robot Scryde was no different appearance-wise than any other robot, bar his dented and slightly rusted appearance. His reply was said with a slightly static reverb to his voice. "Foolish RX. I am but a machine, like the rest of my brethren. We can be easily reconstructed, unlike organic lifeforms."
Before Koutarou could ask who had rebuilt him, he was greeted by the unpleasant sight of the answer. General Gatezone, accompanied by Desgarron and another unfamiliar robot. "You can thank my last surviving soldier, Schwarian, for our return, RX. As our Emperor Crisis was destroyed by you years ago, he persisted, working in the shadows to help rebuild our Crisis Empire and reclaim our former glory."
"Not while I can still draw breath.", was the reply Koutarou gave him. He then shouted a simple word, while doing elaborate arm movements. "Henshin!" With a flash of light, he was transformed. "I am the child of the Sun! Kamen Rider Black! RX!"
As RX proceeded to fight his enemies, the bird Youma that had been provided by the Negaverse flew down and observed. She knew her mission was to wait until RX was worn down by his fight with the Kaima Robots. Then she could swoop down and take his King Stone. However, she sensed the presence of something like said King Stone, emanating from one of the graves in this place. It was faint, but definitely alive. "Come to mama.", she hissed as she swooped down towards the grave in question. She barely made out the initials on the tombstone (N and A) as she tore into it to retrieve the prize inside the corpse.
Gatezone turned towards her with consternation. "What are you doing? That is not part of our mission."
"But I found another King Stone, in this coffin.", she replied. "We don't need to steal it from him, when I can take it from an inactive corpse who can't fight back."
Hearing this, RX turned towards them. His face was concealed by a helmet, but the anger in his voice said it all. "Step away from that grave."
But it came too late. The bird Youma had already reached the body and pulled out the King Stone that had belonged to Shadow Moon, Kamen Rider Black's antithesis in the battle for the title of Century King, and flew away with it. The robots soon followed suit by teleporting, barring Desgarron, who said. "I can make sure that you don't interfere with our plans by terminating you myself."
But his threats ultimately meant nothing to RX, who promptly ended him with the aid of the Revolcane.
