Warrior of the Blood Red Moon
Warrior of the Blood Red Moon
Act 1
Arriving in Tokyo
2nd Night: Beautiful Melody
It had been a little over a week since, Jason and in turn Kiba had made his appearance in Juuban, Tokyo. It was now Tuesday and he was a bit tired even thought he had patrolled the city for three hours each night in the past week. Being who he was made it easier for Jason since the boy needed very little sleep to make it through a whole day.
As Jason got ready to meet the girls for another study session Kibat was hanging upside down from a ceiling fan, "You need to be careful with the Sailor Scouts, Jason," he warned, "They probably never met someone who used the power of darkness to battle evil."
"I know that," Jason sighed as he changed into his normal wear.
"I'm just warning you," the metal bat said from his perch, "While they may not seem that powerful they have defeated many enemies just as powerful as you, if not more so."
"I did my homework, Kibat," Jason said as he checked to make sure everything was in order, "I know."
He wore slightly fades dark blue jeans, a dark brown shirt that read, "Work may not hurt, but why take the chance," and a blood red trench coat. On his wrists were black elastic cotton wrist bands that had hidden slots sewn in them that could hold capsules. These capsules were specially made to either dissolve in water or shatter on impact with something hard. Each capsules contained a potion that either created a huge cloud of black smoke, act like a flashbang, and many other things.
"I just don't want you getting cocky and think you can take on the Sailor Scouts." Kibat said as he flew down from the fan and landed on Jason's shoulder.
"Are you going to keep reminding me of that time when I let the power go to my head?" Jason said with a groan.
Kibat just smirked as his partner gathered the rest of his books and rushed out the door, grabbing his cream colored cowboy hat and the clear bat shaped Summoning/Wake Up Fuestle at the same time. As he rushed out the door, he met up with Gillian who also had her books with her and was wearing a cute green blouse, blue jeans, and cowgirl boots.
They only paused at the door to switch from their house shoes to their outdoor shoes before heading for the shed. When they got their Gillian headed for another motorcycle instead of the one the couple used together.
"Aren't we going to the study group together, Gillian-chan?" Jason enquired.
"I want to check something out first," Gillian said as she mounted the green colored bike.
With a kiss on the lips Gillian put on her helmet before riding off. Jason stared at his girlfriend with an anime question mark hanging above his head before sighing.
"I'll never understand that girl. Heck, I don't think I'll ever understand women in general."
"If you ever do," Kibat stated in a sage-like voice, "You'll probably be hailed as the greatest man to live by all males."
The teenager nodded as he strapped on his helmet and quickly took off as Kibat flew back to the mansion. As he passed the lake, Shoo Doran popped his head out and cooed at Jason who waved back.

"I don't believe it," Makoto said as she looked at a piece of paper in her hands.
Rei pulled the paper out of her hands and stared at it with wide eyes, "This has got to be a forgery."
Ami gently took the paper and looked it over with a critical eye, "It's is the genuine article, Rei-chan."
Minako took the paper trying to comprehend what it said, "I can't believe Usagi could do this."
Jason just smirked as he gently took the paper out of Minako's hands, "I knew she could do it with a little help."
Everyone looked out the room towards the steps that led into the Hikawa Shrine as a happy bunny jumped, back flipped, and cart wheeled all over the yard. The reason for the celebration was in Jason's hands. Usagi had made a B on the latest English test; a B minus yes, but a B none the less.
Usagi quickly raced back inside before glomping onto the person that made it all possible. "ARIGATO, JASON!!"
Soon she went back to celebrating while Jason tried to regain the air he lost when the blonde haired anaconda had squeezed him. After a while they got her to calm down and went back to studying.
"Oi, Jason," Rei spoke up as he was showing Usagi another of his little tricks that his grandmother, an English teacher, had taught him, "Where's Gillian-chan?"
Jason shrugged as he crossed his arms, "I have no clue. I love that girl with all my heart, but she can be quite the pain at times."
There is an old saying, "Speak of the devil and he will come." At the moment there was a roar of a motorcycle that was coming from the base of the temple steps before it was cut off. A minute later, Gillian came rushing up the steps and towards the study group, skidding to a stop as she slammed a piece of paper on the table.
"Take a look at this," she said as everyone leaned in close to read it.
"It's a flyer for a talent show," Ami said as she looked the flyer over.
"That's right," Gillian said before pointing to Jason, "And you, mister, should enter."
"Huh?" Jason said intelligently.
"You should, Jason," Minako said, "You'll be a shoot off for it."
"Shoe in…" everyone said in a monotone voice correcting Minako who looked at them curiously.
"Didn't I say that?"
With a group sigh, Makoto got them back on track, "It will be a great opportunity to hear you play, Jason."
"Well…" Jason was having a hard time deciding so the girls helped him out.
"Please?" they said with the big guns armed and ready.
Jason winched slightly as he saw the five sets of Puppy-Dog eyes on him and turned to look at Ami who was one the most sensible of the group. His winch turned into a twitch as he saw that Ami was also pulling the same eyes.
'Not Ami-chan too!!' He was a bit shocked at what he thought but pushed that to the side for later.
"Well, I'm not all that good…" Jason said and Gillian went for the final push.
Jason stiffened when he felt Gillian drape herself over Jason, her mouth near his ear and lightly breathing into as she slowly and sensually made a small circle on his chest with the index finger of her right hand, massaging his leg near his waist with the left.
"Please," she said softly into his ear making the boy shiver, "Do it for me and I'll make it worth your while."
To seal the deal she lightly kissed Jason's neck and the boy's junk was in the proverbial vice grip.
"I'LL DO IT!!"
All the girls squealed out with happiness before they got together to start planning. Rei, Ami and Gillian were in one group discussing what Jason should play while the other three were in another group talking about what the poor boy should wear.
Jason was by himself, sighing as he mentally kicked himself for getting into the situation he was in. There wasn't a lot of oomph in it since he could not blame the girls since he was told many times that his violin playing was addictive. Besides if it got his girl and Ami smiling, who was he to be angry at?
His thought quickly stopped as he went over what he was thinking. Did he just put Ami and Gillian in the same sentence? He put it out of his mind thinking that since the two girls were so different from one another in some aspects and yet so alike in others that he accidentally placed them together. Yeah that's it.

Later that night, Makoto was walking to her apartment taking a short cut through the park. As she reached a clearing she started hearing music, from an instrument that she was familiar with.
"A violin?" Makoto asked wondering who would be playing at this hour.
She looked around following the music and saw a gazebo. There, inside it was a woman wearing a white dress and wearing her brown hair in a bun playing the violin. She looked and saw a simple jogger slowly walk to her as if in a trance. The brunette looked back at the woman and saw strange black and rainbow colored patterns on her chest and cheeks. Makoto knew that the woman was a Fangire according to Minako's description of what the Horse Fangire's face looked like before he'd discarded his human disguise.
She quickly activated the watch shaped communicator on her wrist then flipped it open to call out to the other Scouts, "Trouble in the park, a Fangire."
With that she closed it and began to transform, "JUPITER STAR POWER, MAKE UP!!"
The Fangire woman watched as her first prey in Japan slowly walked up to her. Once someone heard her music it was only a matter of time before her next meal came to her. As soon as the man was close enough she summoned an octopus tentacle that looked like it was made of rainbow colored stained glass. She stopped playing her violin and quickly grabbed the unfortunate human. Just as she created two large curved fangs of clear red glass she heard something that not only chilled her to the bone but also pissed her off.
"SPARKLING WIDE PRESSURE!!"
A good size ball of lightning came out of nowhere and slammed into the tentacle making the Fangire scream in pain as lightning arced up the tentacle and into her body. She dropped her meal in the process and was forced down to one knee as the jogger quickly got out of there.
"W-who did that?" the female Fangire asked as bits of electricity arched through and around her body.
"Music should be use to entertain people, not to hypnotize them. I, Sailor Jupiter, will not allow it!"
The Female Fangire looked up to see the strongest of the Inner Scouts, Sailor Jupiter, off to the side and growled, "You're one of those Sailor Bitches, how dare you let my dinner get away!!"
A tick appeared on Jupiter's head when she heard the Fangire called her, "What did you call me?"
"You heard me, bitch," the Fangire said as the stain glass pattern appeared on her chest and cheeks, "Now you're going to pay for losing my meal with your life!!"
Blood Moon Warrior
Jason raced through the streets as he heard the Bloody Rose sing, signaling that a Fangire had revealed itself. He had already called Kibat, who was flying beside him, and soon he reached the park where he heard the sounds of a battle taking place. He parked his bike a little ways away from the fight and with a small burst of magic changed his trench coat from red to black with the bloody crescent moon on the back and the three titles written in Kanji and arranged in a triangle along with changing his hat to black.
He quietly sneaked towards the fight and saw, for the first time, the Sailor Scouts in action against a Fangire that looked to be like an octopus. It had a large head similar to the body of a squid with four tentacles on its back to form a kind of cape while its beady black eyes were glaring at the Scouts. Its entire body seemed to be made up of tentacles with a large beak in the center of its chest, long black clawed fingers, and black pointed shoes with the tips curled up. Its entire body was rose colored with yellow suction cups on the tentacles and hints of other colors here and there.
Wondering if the Scouts were as all the people made them out to be, Jason sat back in the shadows and just watched. He heard Kibat swooping down and landing upside down on a low branch covering the front of his face with his wings.
"Are you not going to jump in?" Kibat asked as he watched the action with Jason.
"Nope," Jason said shaking his head, "I want to see if the Sailor Scouts can back up what people say. I will say this; their teamwork is good if the last few minutes are anything to go by."
"Oh?"
"Sure." Jason began pointing at the Scouts as he explained, "Venus, Mars, and Jupiter are surrounding the monster pelting it with their attacks, thought only Jupiter and Mars's attacks are any effective. Mercury is holding back, possibly scanning the Fangire for any weaknesses, which Fangires in general do not have many."
"What about Moon?" Kibat said whilst pointing a wing at the aforementioned girl.
"From what myself and Gillian gathered, her attacks are mostly finishers. I guess she's hanging back and waiting for the proper moment to attack," Jason said as he sweat dropped seeing Moon trip just in time to dodge an attack from the Fangire.
Something caught Kibat's eye when one of the girl's attack almost hit the gazebo but the Fangire blocked it, "What's that over their?"
Jason barely caught what Kibat was taking about and quickly blinked. His eyes had changed from dark brown to a bright gold with the pupils changing into slits.
"It's a violin," Jason growled out at the mockery to his art as his eyes changed back to brown.
"The Fangire probably uses it to bring people to itself," Kibat said while his partner growled softly.
Soon the Fangire had enough and raced back to its violin. Venus it was about to run and shot her Love-Me chain at it just as it grabbed the instrument. The Octopus Fangire turned around in time for the chain to smash into the violin, breaking it in half. The Fangire growled loudly before it opened its beak and fired large exploding balls of ink at the girl's feet, blinding them.
Jason quickly raced for his bike and tore off after the Fangire. He was right behind the monster but got a surprise when its feet changed into what looked to a cross between old wagon wheels and a multi toothed gear. Getting back on track, he chased the Fangire who had a few things going for it. One: the bike Jason was riding at the moment was not really meant for high speed chases so all the boy could do was follow behind the monster.
The other thing was that it was "born" in this city and knew more then a few places to hide. After a long chase, it turned down an alleyway with Jason just a few second behind. The teenager got the shock of his life when he quickly had to break in order not to slam into the dead end.
"Where did it go?" Jason asked, flipping the facial portion of his helmet up.
Kibat looked around as he said, "I don't know."
"Damn," Jason cursed in English before going back to Japanese, "We better get out of here. The Sailor Scouts will probably be right on our tail."
Jason quickly turned around and tore out of there with Kibat taking to the skies. A minute later, part of the wall shimmered as the Fangire dropped its cloak before it shimmered again putting back on its disguise though it was a bit different. Her once brown hair had changed to black and was flowing down her back while her clothing had changed into something more suitable for spring.
"Those bitches," she said softly to herself before she looked at the remains of her violin mourning its 'death'.
'I've had this violin ever since I became a Fangire. So many victims of all types had been hypnotized by my music, and now it's nothing more than scrap,' the Fangire mourned mentally as she looked the pieces over, 'Sure I can fix it or get another one but I've had this for over two hundred years.'
With tears in her eyes and a clenched fist she swore, "Once I fix my precious and had my fill of Life Energy, I will kill those bitches!!"
She quickly marched to the exit but stopped when she saw a flyer that caught her eye, "What a perfect place to have my fill and guide those brats into a trap."
She quickly tore off the flyer and walked away focusing now on repairing her instrument.
Blood Moon Warrior
It had been two days since Jason had lost the Fangire and he was not exactly happy with it. Whenever he could he would patrol the streets of Tokyo on his other bike with the Bloody Rose in a specially made sling bag that could hold both the case for the violin and would not hamper with its warnings. At the moment he was getting ready for the talent show Saturday in the living room of Castle Doran, looking over the music sheet for a little extra insurance since he would play the piece by memory alone.
Jason heard Lobo shuffling through his newspaper his feet up on a small stool as Gillian refilled Jason's cup of tea, while Francis was also having a cup of tea as well. The predatory man quickly shot up slamming his feet onto the floor.
"SONOVABITCH!!" he shouted, gaining everyone attention. He threw the newspaper to the floor in disgust.
Gillian sat down the tray in her hands while Jason hopped over the couch with one hand and Francis calmly walked over to Lobo.
"What's wrong, Wolfy?" Jason asked the head caretaker of Castle Doran. "Bad news?"
"Starbucks is opening another store right here," Lobo pointed at the article he'd just read. "I hate Starbucks! They make me sick! They wouldn't know good coffee if it even bit them on the leg!"
Gillian rolled her eyes. Lobo liked good tea and coffee. He hated chains like Starbucks since their selection of drinks was considered, by him, to be blasphemous.
"It's revolting, I tell you," Lobo complained. "Stupid Starbucks and their gimmicks."
Jason sighed and went back to his sheet music. This talent show was a competition and he had to be at his best. However, what bothered him the most was the lack of activity from that Octopus Fangire. Where was it hiding?
Blood Moon Warrior
It was pretty quiet night for Juuban Junior High School. The last person present there, the janitor, was making his final rounds when he heard a terrible crash in the Music Supply Store. When he reached the door he saw that the door had been almost pulled off its hinges by something.
The man carefully peaked in there and saw that the room looked like it'd been hit by a tornado. The violins were the only thing strewed around and at the epicenter was a black haired woman in white clothing.
"Oi, Onna," the man cried out as he came through the door, "You're not allowed in here! I'm calling the cops!"
At that the woman quickly turned around with a half repaired violin in her hands hissing. Two long octopus tentacles shot out of her back and quickly wrapped themselves around him as strange marking appeared on her cheeks. A second later the janitor saw no more as the Fangire quickly drained the man of everything leaving only a clear husk that cracked slightly when she dropped him.
"No one is going to stop me from getting my revenge on those Sailor Scouts," she swore as she went back to fixing her violin as the stained glass marking disappeared.
Blood Moon Warrior
The next morning the front of the school was crowded as people, mostly students but a few others just walking along the street, tried to get a look at what was happening. Jason and Gillian coasted to a stop on their bike and after giving each other a brief shrug, they jumped off and went to find their friends.
As soon as the reached them Jason spoke up, "What's going on here?"
The blond gossip queen turned to him with a questioning look, "Didn't you see the news?"
The two new students shook their heads at that making Makoto, who was nearby, gasp, "The music supply store was broken into and the body of a janitor was found but that's not the strangest thing."
Ami butted in at that point, "The poor man's body was completely transparent like glass."
Gillian and Jason looked at each other, shocked, but there was something that only Ami could see, though barely. It was recognition, like Gillian and Jason had seen or heard something like what'd happened before. Soon a few teachers came out and said that for the moment anything dealing with the music supply room was canceled. A few kids were hoping that school would be canceled but no such luck for them.
Blood Moon Warrior
After school, just before Jason and Gillian were supposed to meet their friends, the occupants of Castle Doran were talking.
"So the Fangire was after violin parts?" Lobo asked as he sipped on his coffee.
"I'm sure of it," Jason complied as Gillian filled his cup of tea, "I snuck a peek between classes and overheard that more then a few things were missing, all of them related to violins."
"So the Fangire has fixed her violin," Gillian said as she set the tray down and sat on his lap, "What do you think it's going to do?"
"Well," Jason sat his cup down and wrapped his arms around the girl, "If I was it, I would probably quench my hunger first then go after the Scouts after I drained the life force of so many humans at one time."
"Where's it going to be able to do that?" Kibat asked as he perched on top of a near y chair.
All of them started thinking before Jason and Gillian snapped their fingers as they got the same idea. Both teens looked at each other before Jason made an "after you" gesture which earned him a kiss on the cheek and a blush.
"The Fangire will probably strike at the Talent Show," the green eyed girl said.
"What for?" Lobo asked taking another sip of his coffee.
Jason started off holding up a finger, "One: it's the best place to gather a lot of life energy in a short amount of time and also herd the Sailor Scouts into a trap."
Gillian picked of where Jason left while holding up two fingers, "Two: it can use anyone that's left as shields."
Both teens showed three fingers as the finished together, "And three: it's just big enough for a fight yet small enough that the Scouts can't use their more powerful attacks without damaging both the drained people and the building."
As they finished Gillian turned to Jason with a smile, "You've come a long way, Jason-kun."
"Well," Jason said a bit bashful, "It comes with having a girlfriend that's a master of long-range combat and an expert at analyzing an opponent's weak spots."
Gillian smiled at Jason as her eyes gained a sexy half lidded look that held the promise of a long make-out session later on with the boy. Jason blushed brightly before he reminded his girl that they were needed elsewhere. As the two of them got up to get dressed, Lobo and Kibat watched them chuckling a bit.
"The boy has come a long way," Kibat said as he jumped off the chair and flew to Lobo's shoulder as the feral man gave a rare smile.
"From a scrawny slightly chubby boy to a strong teenager, he has come far, My Lord," Lobo said as the two of them thought back to when Jason first came to Castle Doran.
Flashback
An eleven year old Jason stumbled through the forest with marks of a battle all across his body as his left arm hung uselessly. His whole young body looked like he'd fought a lawn mower and lost as he stumbled away from a gruesome scene a few miles back. His grandfather and mother had taken him of his first camping trip for his eleventh birthday a few days ago. All three were happily having fun but then some people came to their camp and changed into monsters before they began fighting each other.
His mother and grandfather both fought to keep them at bay while they ordered Jason to run away. Now here he was bloody and broken with his mother and grandfather dead after they'd helped him escape their own fate.
He soon tripped over a rock hidden by the falling day and fell forward screaming in pain as grass and dirt was shoved up into his wounds on his chest. With a grunt of effort he turned himself over on his back screaming again as he put his full weight on his torn and bloody shoulder before he was on his back.
'Looks like I'm going to die,' he thought with surprising maturity.
'My mom and grandpa wanted me to live, but instead I'm going to die,' he thought as he watched day slowly turn into night.
Just as his vision began to blur, the face of a girl a couple of years older then him came into his vision. Their eyes locked as a thought came to the poor boy's mind.
"Are you an angel?" he asked, making the girl blush.
Soon his vision gave into darkness as he heard the girl cry out for help. Then, as he felt himself being lifted by strong hand, he knew no more.
End Flashback
Lobo's rare smile vanished as he watched the two teenagers race to the motorcycle before it returned as the door was slammed shut. He may never say it to the New Lord's face but he respected the kid since rather than trying to avenge his mother and grandfather, he instead decided to take this new chance and power and use it to protect people. He saw many good men become nothing more than heartless monsters after something terrible had happened to their loved ones. He was glad that Jason ended up different.
Blood Moon Warrior
The next day, Jason stood offstage as he watched the many competitors do their thing. The entire show was not only based on how the judges scored but also on how loud the audience applauded. The higher both scores were the better chances you had at winning. At the moment no one got a full score but some got very close. As it got closer to show time, Jason's anxiety got worst as he pulled on the tie around his neck that went with the black and white three piece suit similar to the ones worn by orchestra members.
"Will you stop that?" Gillian asked as she stood next to Jason, trying to calm him down.
"I can't help it. I never liked playing in front of a large audience," Jason said while futilely trying to bat his girlfriend's hands away from him neck.
"And I hate wearing this monkey suit," Jason said as he surrendered to Gillian, "It restricts my movements and will make it harder for me to…"
Jason was interrupted when Gillian gave him a huge kiss on the lips to shut him up.
As she pulled back she spoke up, "You'll do fine, and don't worry about IT. That's my job until IT reveals itself."
Jason nodded before taking a deep breath trying to calm himself down. Soon his name was called and he started to walk up to the stage.
"Wish me luck?" he asked Gillian as she walked before him.
"You don't need it. You have the skills to make it," Gillian said, making the boy blush.
The green eyed girl stopped a few feet from the stage as her boyfriend went onstage. When he got to the middle he put his violin under his chin and nodded slightly. Music started playing and in a few seconds Jason followed. Everyone, who had not heard him play before was in awe as he not only went along with the music but made it feel better.
A minute after he started he stopped with a long low note. As he lowered the violin the audience began to applaud, deafening him as he watched with awe as the judges gave him a perfect score. Jason could only blush as he bowed to the crowed then walked off stage at his cue. As soon as he walked off stage he was tackled by Gillian who giggled happily.
"YOU DID IT, JASON-KUN, YOU DID IT!! Gillian cheered happily kissing all over Jason's face.
"Not yet," Jason said smiling as the happy girl kept hugging him, "I still have the audience participation part to deal with."
"Silly, you got the highest score!!" Gillian said as she got off of Jason to allow him to put the Bloody Rose back in its case, "You're a shoe-in!!"
"I hope," Jason said a bit worried still, "but we'll see."
The boy took a quick look around before leaning in close to Gillian to whisper, "We still have to be one the look out for the Fangire AND the Sailor Scouts."
Gillian nodded as some of her happiness faded but she was still excited that her boyfriend was the first, and seemingly the only one, to get full marks. A few more people did their things but to the audience it wasn't as impressed as they had been for Jason's performance and none of them got even close to Jason's score. Both teens were getting nervous since the Fangire had yet to show itself and both were hoping that they were right with their assumption but only the last performance would tell.
The Fangire both kids were worried about, now named Hitomi Miyazawa, was waiting for her turn as she watched the performance. Unlike the others around her she was not worried in the least bit. She had changed her disguise a bit and was now wearing a light blue dress with her hair flowing down her back instead of its usual bun and minuscule glasses over her eyes. Small changes but they were needed since she didn't know if the Scouts were in the crowd or not.
Soon her false name was called and with a bright smile she walked up to the stage. Jason and Gillian watched with tense muscles as the last act walked up and started playing her violin. Soon as she started playing people began to get hypnotized and soon Hitomi smiled as she played a bit longer before she started her feeding. As she was playing the stained glass markings appeared on her chest and cheeks. Jason and Gillian were also entranced but thankfully the Bloody Rose's case was open as it started playing, thus breaking the trance over the couple.
"That has to be her!" Gillian said as she shook her head to get rid of the hypnosis.
Jason nodded as he got the Bloody Rose out of its case and began playing a song that was opposite to the one the Fangire was playing. A few seconds after Jason started the other Fangire's violin started vibrating, throwing off her playing. Soon the audience was back to normal and, figuring the jig was up, Hitomi discarded her disguise. When she revealed herself people started screaming and running for the exits.
The Fangire grabbed a few people and fed on them, leaving nothing but transparent husks. She reached for another and was about to feed again when eight rings of fire slammed into the tentacle holding the man causing the Fangire to cry out. She looked towards where the rings came from and saw the Sailor Scouts again. With a low growl she got up, ready for her revenge.
As the Fangire was "Playing" with the Sailor Scouts, Gillian and Jason headed for a deserted and secure location they had scouted out before and during the competition. As soon as they got there Jason handed the Bloody Rose, back in its container, to Gillian.
"Get over to Lobo and tell him to get the Machine Kibaa ready for action," he said as he pulled out the Summoning/Wake Up Fuestle.
"But…"
"Get going!" Jason ordered and Gillian nodded and reluctantly got out of there.
After he quickly blew the Fuestle he placed it between the index and middle fingers of his right hand before Kibat came swooping in a few seconds later.
"What took you so long?" Jason asked jokingly.
"Traffic was rough," Kibat said as he quickly flew around to see if anyone was around.
"That's what they all say, Kibat," Jason said as he shot his right hand up and quickly captured the metal bat.
"Shut up and let me bite you," Kibat replied as Jason brought him to his left to bite down.
The boy felt the familiar rush of energy as tribal tattoos/stained glass patterns appeared on the skin of his hands and cheeks and silver chains wrapped around his waist before melting together to form the Kiba Belt. With that he snapped the Fuestle into place before thrusting his arm out.
"Henshin," he said before he attached Kibat to the belt to hang upside down.
The familiar ringing sound came and quicksilver rapidly covered him then broke off him before he made his way for the stage. When he got there he saw two of the Sailor Scouts, Mercury and Moon, getting choked by two tentacles from the Fangire who had put her disguise back on while they were being used as shields. Anger flowed through Kiba for some reason as he saw those two girls in trouble and raced towards them. As he neared them he leapt up and karate chopped the tentacles, freeing the girls and making the Fangire stumble back.
Seeing an opportunity, Mars charged up an attack, "BURNING MANDALA!!"
The Fangire stepped back but the raven haired Scout's attack wasn't aimed for her. The Violin was the target and when the female Fangire moved she inadvertently lifted her violin up high enough to get hit by the attack. The violin shattered into many pieces and began to burn thanks to Mars' element of fire.
The Fangire gasped in shock seeing her instrument totally ruined before glaring and the Scouts and Rider, "KISAMA!!" she shouted as she once again discarded her disguise.
The Fangire was about to unleash another of her exploding ink balls when Kiba charged at her and slammed his fist into the opening beak causing it to close and the ink ball to explode inside it. The Fangire was sent flying back from both the punch and the misfired ink ball. Her beak was destroyed while Kiba only skidded back a bit. Deciding to fight another day, the Fangire quickly got up and ran away. Kiba ran after her with the Scouts a few steps behind him.
Kiba saw the Fangire heading down a long hallway before taking a sharp turn to the right. Kiba skipped to a stop at the door way and to his shock that the Fangire was gone. The hallway she had turned into was long and dark with just a bit of light shining through. The Scouts right behind him also skidded to a stop though Moon fell on her butt. They also saw that the Fangire had somehow disappeared.
Sailor Mars got very impatient and looked at her comrades, "What are we waiting for?" she asked, "Let's get that thing!"
She was about to march forward when Kiba put his arm in front of Mars to stop her. Shaking his head, he pointed to himself before pointing down the hall.
"I think he wants us to wait while he checks out the hall," Ami said to which Kiba nodded.
Mars growled out before shouting, "All right, but if that things get away it's on your ass."
Kiba turned his helmeted head towards the fiery Sailor Scout and Mars felt something akin to a death glare coming from the masked man. He slowly walked forward waving his right armored hand in front of his visor, called the Omnilens, activating its night vision mode. Mercury pressed her right stud earring making a blue visor appear while pulling out her small handheld supercomputer, scanning the area.
With the visor active she saw him flick his wrist and a small pill shaped capsule appeared in-between his index and middle fingers. As Kiba walked down the hall the Fangire waited for her chance to strike. As it dropped its camouflage Mercury picked up on its energy.
"BEHIND YOU!!" she shouted out on instinct.
At that moment Kiba quickly turned around and tossed the capsule at the Fangire. When it shattered where the beak was on its chest was it exploded causing the Fangire to fall down with considerable damage. Kiba quickly picked the Fangire up and slammed his knee into its stomach a few times before he grabbed the monster around its waist and pulled a strange suplex, throwing the Fangire behind him as he flipped backwards.
The girls were in awe as they saw the fight as Kiba quickly turned to the Fangire. At the same time the female Fangire shot one of its tentacles at the Rider who threw up his arms up to protect himself. The tentacle wrapped itself around Kiba's arms and the Fangire got up and began throwing the Rider into the walls a few times before he stopped himself and tugged on the tentacle.
The Fangire tugged back harder and threw the Kamen Rider through a window. Thinking quickly as he smashed through the glass he grabbed the retreating tentacle and as he flipped forward he jerked with all his might, throwing the Fangire out the widow and on the road while Kiba went through the roof of a nearby shed.
The Fangire quickly got up and seemed to smirk as she saw where Kiba had landed. The Scouts had quickly raced towards the window and watched at the Fangire climbed back to it feet and was about to make tracks when a loud roar sounded then something smashed through a wall of boxes near the shed then into the Fangire before it stopped, throwing the monster farther out.
The thing was Kiba riding what looked to be a blood red Harley-Davison motorcycle with three small headlights on the front and a single bat wing shaped racing fin on the back fender. The Fangire decided that enough was enough and hauled ass out of there. Kiba revved his up the Machine Kibaa and charged after the Fangire as her feet changed into wheels.
"AFTER THEM!!" Moon shouted as they quickly followed by way of roof top.
The Fangire and Kamen rider quickly took to the streets. Thankfully, the traffic was low. As Kiba slowly reached the running Fangire, it quickly turned around and tried to take off the Masked Rider's head with its right spiked wheel. Kiba quickly ducked it and had to duck a second time when it tried again with its right wheeled leg. As Fangire and Rider tore through the streets Kiba quickly revved up the engine coaxing more speed out of it.
When the two were neck and neck Kiba tried to clothesline the Fangire on his right who blocked and backhanded him. Each of them began punching and blocking until a lucky elbow strike caused the Fangire to swerve out of control for a bit before it threw a tentacle at him. It wrapped around Kiba's neck and the Octopus Fangire began to slowly suffocate him as it went around the front of the bike to the right of it making it easier for the Fangire to choke Kiba who was trying to get it off.
"I don't think so!" Kibat shouted as he detached himself from the belt.
He flew at the Fangire, circling her as he slashed at her with his wings causing some damage. The Fangire tried to swat him away but he flew back to the middle of the tentacle and bit down hard. With a screech it loosened up on Kiba's neck allowing the Rider to get it off.
"Alright," Kiba said softly before he wrapped the tentacle around the Machine Kibaa's left handlebar. He saw a couple of cars ahead of him and he accelerated forward, dragging the Fangire with him.
"Dead end!!" Kibat said as he saw the cars now coming for him and quickly flew up to the sky.
The Fangire took an unscheduled turn to the right thanks to the first car snagging her tentacle and smashed her head through the front passenger window of the second car behind the first as Kiba let go of the tentacle.
"That's what you get," Kibat said as he stuck his tongue at the Fangire, pulling his left bottom eyelid down with his left foot before flying back to Kiba.
Kiba quickly came to a stop on the left side of the road near the sidewalk and got off the motorcycle as Kibat reattached himself to his belt. Taking a few steps away from the bike he pulled out the red bat shaped Fuestle and prepared to do the same thing that he'd done to the Horse Fangire. The Scouts came just as Kiba placed the clear whistle between Kibat's lips.
"WAKE UP!!" Kiba shouted as he flew off the belt once again.
"Hup!" Kiba shifted his left foot forward his hand spread out to his sides. As Kibat flew around him blowing the Fuestle, day turned into night with a full moon quickly waning while Kiba crossed his wrists.
The armored man then kicked his right foot as the moon became a crescent moon with a shout of, "BREAK THE CHAINS!!"
Kibat once again did his thing with the chained boot and flew away. The Scouts watched with awe as the chains burst away from the boot that became blood red bat wings showing the three green gems along the leg and foot.
The Fangire stumble backwards as Kiba jumped high into the air. The crescent moon shone behind him making him look more threatening.
He cried out, "DARK MOON BREAK!!" Kiba plummeted down like a meteor and slammed the Fangire into the ground making a crater in the shape of his symbol upon impact.
Mercury gasped as she read what the mini supercomputer had to say about the finisher, "M-masaka!!"
"What's wrong, Mercury?" Moon asked worried for her friend.
"T-that attack h-had over t-thirty THOUSAND kilograms worth of force behind it!!" she said making the girls gasp in shock and awe.
Soon the girls heard a cracking sound and looked back and watched with awe as the Fangire's body became a rainbow of colors before the gems on the right leg of Kiba flashed with energy and he pushed down on the fragile body with a grunt. The Fangire's body shattered like glass as the white orb that was its soul slowly flew up to the sky.
Night turned back into day and the wings folded back up with silver chains appearing, wrapping around the boot. Castle Doran flew down from the sky and landed on the ground causing the girls to whimper at the huge beast.
"I told you that the dragon was real," Venus said, remembering the skeptical looks she'd gotten when she'd told them this part of her story.
When Castle Doran landed, the dragon began running after the soul and Kibat flew around Kiba saying, "Chew thoroughly."
The dragon grabbed the Fangire soul and quickly chewed it up before swallowing with a pleasant sigh. Castle Doran then flew back into the air.
As Kiba sighed, he turned back to walk to his bike. However, he was stopped when he heard a shout.
"Wait!"
It was the Sailor Scouts. Kiba sighed. It looked like they wanted answers. He spun around to face the girls who were looking at him with a degree of awe and suspicion. It was a given. The only time they'd seen someone with his power was in the form of an enemy.
"W-Who are you?" Sailor Mercury asked, still clutching her computer.
Kiba decided to give his name, making sure to mask his voice. He pointed to the crater and said, "Kiba." As soon as he said it, he turned around and walked back to his bike.
"Are you an enemy?" Sailor Jupiter asked as the Kamen Rider got on his bike. Kiba looked over his shoulder at her and shrugged before looking forwards again. He revved up his vehicle and zoomed away from the spot.
"Geez, that was rude!" Venus huffed while crossing her arms.
Moon squatted down to look at the crater, tracing a finger along its edge. "Kiba…Who are you?"
As they were thinking about Kiba, Jupiter remembered something, "WE LEFT JASON AND GILLIAN BACK AT THE TALENT SHOW!!"
"NANI?!" the other girls shouted before they took off.
Blood Moon Warrior
Later that night Jason, Gillian, and their new friends were gathered at the Hikawa Shrine for a celebration. Why? Because Jason won first place at the talent show, that's why!!
"I still can't believe it!" Jason said, shocked as he looked at the trophy on the table. His trophy. This was one for the trophy case.
"I knew you could do it!" Gillian shouted excitedly as she hugged Jason.
All the girls were partying since they got to the shrine. All through it Jason just kept going on that he could not believe it until a smack to the back of his head, courtesy of Rei, brought him back to the present.
"I guess I have to thank you girls for pushing me to do this," he said in appreciation. "If not for you I probably would be too scared to even try."
The girls 'aww-ed' before pulling Jason into a group hug. Then they went back to partying. As they had fun, two certain moon cats were talking.
"I still think the girls are not focused enough on this Kiba person," Luna said as she watched from a branch with Artemis at her side.
"Are you not over thinking this a bit too much?" Artemis asked, remembering when Kiba briefly looked his way when he'd charged at the Horse Fangire as it was attacking Minako.
"NO I AM NOT!!" Luna almost shouted but was barely able to keep quiet, "That person reeks of darkness…"
"But not evil, Luna," Artemis pointed out. "Even Rei said that she felt no evil in him, just darkness."
"It's only a matter of time before he become evil," Luna said with a hint of pride, "No one can control darkness without becoming evil."
"What about HER?" Artemis asked causing Luna to glare at him.
"The only reason SHE did not succumb to the darkness was because of the Ginzuishou," Luna said with a huff.
"Yet, even with that, you still hated her. I just think you are being prejudiced about darkness because of what happened to your family," Artemis said before he jumped down to the ground with a grace only a cat could have. "I'm going inside and having some of that fish Jason brought for us."
Luna watched as her partner advisor stepped inside before looking at the moon, "You never saw your family being killed by the demons I saw so long ago."
