Akiko gave me a brief explanation of what was going on. The police officer that helped me was Ryu Terui, her husband and Kamen Rider Accel. The other one was... two people? Shotaro Hidari and Philip, and they are Kamen Rider W/Double. 5 years ago, they protected Fuuto against the Museum organization and Foundation X, who were distributing Gaia Memories to people. Putting two and two together, I figured that both of the Kamen Riders used Gaia Memories to transform. Her English wasn't the best but I think I understood everything. {Ryan-kun?} She pointed at the briefcase that I stole. I decided now would was as good as anytime to open it up and see what made me want this thing so bad. I set it on the ground and opened it. Inside sat a White Gaia Memory with a gold connector and a weird gold device. Akiko pushed her head in to get a closer look. "Lost Driver and a Gaia Memory?" I picked up the Memory.
"NEW AGE!"
This is what I was hearing? A flash drive, well, Gaia Memory? {Ryan-kun...} Akiko pulled on my shirt and I turned around. There were more of those black and white Dopants behind us. "Shit..." I grabbed the contents of the briefcase and threw the the thing at them. I grabbed Akiko's hand and we started running. But they were faster.
They pushed Akiko down, but luckily the baby was okay. One of them grabbed me by the throat. {Give us the Driver and Memory!}
"No clue what you said dude!" I kicked the Dopant as hard as I could and managed to knock it back into the other two. "Let's see if this shuts you up!" I put the Driver against my waist and it formed a belt around me. I held the Gaia memory up to show them what I was about to do. I pressed the button:
"NEW AGE!"
A surge of electricity rushed throughout my body. Time seemed to stop. I heard another voice, different then what came out of the Memory. "You've found me, Ryan-kun. We can now become one."
"What... is going on?"
"Mother Earth has destined us together. We must protect her." That was good enough reason for me. Everything began moving again and I put the New Age Memory into the Driver. {HENSHIN!}. My body seemed to move on it's own as I pushed down on the Driver.
"NEW AGE!"
After that everything went white.
I opened my eyes up. I have no idea where I am. I roll on my side and feel a burst of pain run down my ribs. {Ryan-kun!} Well, I guess Akiko is here. I look around at the others in the room. I recognize the police officer, Ryu Terui, but the other two men... one of them dresses kinda weird and the other is wearing a fedora. {So, the new Kamen Rider is awake!} The oddly dressed one kneeled down beside me.
{Philip. Give him some time. Remember, he doesn't speak Japanese.} The fedora wearing man sat down at a desk in the far corner.
{I can speak English, Shotaro.} He didn't look away from. "My name's Philip."
"I'm Ryan Mitchell...or... is it Mitchell Ryan?"
"Well, which is it?"
"My given name is Ryan. What happened to me?"
"You transformed using that gold driver and white memory." Ryu took over for Philip. "You then wiped out almost every Dopant in the area."
"I...I did what?"
"I've never seen a memory with so much power before!" Philip stood up and had a look of intrigue on his face. "In fact, no one but you can touch it without it releasing an electric shock."
"It did talk to me... It said I was chosen to fight with it."
"Well, whatever is going on, we will need that power." Ryu looked back at Shotaro. {Hidari, he'll need to stay here.}
{WHAT?!}
{Ryu-kun and I don't have the room with the baby. Are you gonna argue with your chief's husband?!} She pulled out a green slipper and held it by Shotaro's head.
{Fine, but someone's gotta teach him Japanese.}
{I can!} Philip looked as if he was a child with a new toy to play with. "Mitchell-san, just rest for now. We will take care of you. Kamen Riders need to work together after all."
