[Savior of Song ends.]
The Riders charged into battle with a battalion of SHOCKER combatmen as Captain Keoteo, Lt Weasel and Lt Vixen watched the battle unfold.
Matt fought against the combatmen, but he quickly realized he was outnumbered.
"Time to even the odds in my favor! Military Change!" Matt exclaimed as he pressed the red button on his bracer.
"Standby for Military Change!"
The X on Matt's belt started flashing dark green before it started glowing dark green.
"Army! Move out!" Matt exclaimed as he pulled the ripcord, spinning the now dark green glowing X.
"Army! Armor Up!"
Matt's armor was now covering his upper chest and shoulders, his helmet's peaked cap was changed to a beret with the R symbol on it, there seemed to be minigun barrel attachments connected vertically to both of his upper arms, tank treads on the sides of his legs and his arms and hands inside tank turret armor.
Matt started firing at the combatmen with the turrets, making the combatmen explode in fire.
Keoteo, Weasel and Vixen were shocked at what they were seeing.
"Th-they...exploded?!" Weasel exclaimed.
"What are they?" Vixen thoughtfully asked as she held her tail.
A Combatmen suddenly appeared with a rocket launcher and aimed it at Vixen before firing it.
Matt saw the rocket launcher fire and blasted the grenade before it could hit Vixen, which gave SHOCKER the opportunity to attack Matt from behind.
The combatmen striked Matt in the back via swords before the Australian fell to the ground.
"Matt!" Vixen exclaimed as Matt started to get up.
"Stay down, Kamen Rider! SHOCKER is like a Hydra, you cut off one head, two more shall take it's place!" A combatman said.
"Well then, i guess i have to cut off all the bloody heads then. Turret, Gatling mode!" Matt exclaimed.
"Gatling!"
The minigun barrels and the tank guns switched places as Matt aimed them at the combatmen who were now terrified.
"I'm sorry, what were you saying about me staying down?" Matt asked as he fired the gatling guns at the combatmen, exploding them before after a minute or two, the guns stop firing.
"Damn it!" Matt exclaimed as the guns switched places again before the combatmen started laughing.
"Let's see you laugh after this! Bomber Cannon!" Matt exclaimed as the turrets came off his arms and combined together with the two guns splitting in half before connecting to the now combined turrets to form the Bomber Cannon which attached to his right arm and hand. He then took the X and part of his belt device with the ripcord and attached it to the top of the cannon.
"Standby for final strike!"
The X flashed until it lit up green and Matt pulled on the ripcord.
"Army Bomber Cannon Blast!"
The combatmen stopped laughing as the cannon then produced a ball of green energy which Matt was about to fire.
Some of the combatmen started to run as Matt was about to press the trigger.
"When you get to hell, tell Great Leader i said G'day." Matt said as he pressed the cannon, releasing a powerful energy blast that eradicated the combatmen.
"Gashat Magnum!"
Trent blasted through his forces of the combatmen with his weapon, the Gashat Magnum.
He then pressed the A button on the weapon and a part of it flipped from where slide would be and became a rifle.
"Rifle!"
Trent fired at the combatmen, taking more out than he did with the handgun. But as he fired, more kept coming.
"I guess i have to even my odds." Trent said as he closed the lever on the driver.
"Game Paused."
He then grabbed an orange gashat from a holder on the right side of his belt and pressed the trigger, causing a screen of a fighter plane with a shark decal on it firing with the logo Jet Combat in front of a blue star and the letters connected to six wings, three on each side.
"Jet Combat!"
Out of the screen came a small black, white, and orange fighter aircraft-themed support robot with gatling guns for arms, wings and black eyes with white pupils.
Trent then put the gashat into the second slot of the driver and opened the lever on the driver.
"Gashat! Player! Level Up! Ba-Bang-Bang! Bang-Ba-Bang! Yow! Bang Bang Shooting!"
"Level 3! Jet! (GO!) Jet! (GO!) In the Sky! Jet! Jet! Jet Combat!"
The support robot merged with Snipe to give him wings, gatling guns, a plane nose chest armor, pilot oxygen mask and orange visor over now both of Snipe's eyes, the covered eye now revealed.
Trent had lifted off and was now flying over the combatmen before firing at them with his guns, taken a dozen or so out.
The combatmen proceeded to fire at Trent, but the navy commander just flew over them, putting the Jet Combat gashat in a slot in the holder and pressed the button and did it again before he landed behind them.
"Game Paused! Gashat! Final Strike! Jet Critical Strike!"
Snipe fired his guns and rockets at the combatmen, causing an explosion and defeating the combatmen before Snipe landed.
"Mission Complete!"
"Oceanic Break!" Michael exclaimed as he slid kick through the combatmen, striking them with a tidal wave and taking some of them out.
But the combatmen started surrounding the USCG Lieutenant Commander again as he got ready to attack once more.
"Aqua Vortex!" Michael exclaimed as he performed a flying roundhouse kick and took out more combatmen, but there were still plenty more.
"How the hell am i going to take all these guys out, this is too much!" Michael thoughtfully exclaimed before suddenly…
"Attack Vent!"
The combatmen surrounding Michael were suddenly taken out by a magenta stingray monster, he realized it was Chris who did that.
"Thanks, Jarhead." Michael thanked Chris.
"No problem, Coastie." Chris responded before a combatman punched him and Chris punched back before pulling a card from the cartridge and putting it in a opened slot on his wrist device and closing it.
"Swing Vent!"
It summoned a magenta whip that resembled a stingray's tail.
Chris whipped through the combatmen before performing a spin attack that took a big number of them out, but he then saw one of them, who was red and holding a wolf soldier with a gun to his head.
"Alright, Kamen Rider! Stand down immediately or else this soldier is dead!" the combatman exclaimed.
Chris didn't want another soldier to die, so he stood down as the combatman smiled maniacally.
"Good." The combatmen said before suddenly two SHOCKER combatmen grabbed the marine as the combatman knocked the wolf soldier down.
As Chris tried to break free, the combatman suddenly slammed his foot down on the soldier's left arm.
*CRACK!*
The soldier's left arm was now broken, causing the wolf to cry out in pain.
"No!" Chris exclaimed as he broke free of the combatmen's grip before getting grabbed again by more combatmen.
Lt Vixen couldn't watch a soldier tortured like that as she covered her eyes with her hands.
Weasel was horrified at seeing what the combatman was doing to the poor soldier.
Keoteo was angered at this, causing his eyes to start glowing blue. Seeing a soldier, especially from his; getting tortured like that was too far in his eyes.
*CRACK!*
The wolf screamed again, only it was much worse after the combatman broke his right arm.
"Stop it!" Chris exclaimed as he broke free again and used his whip to try and strike the combatman, but he was grabbed again before he could hit the combatman.
The combatman now grabbed his gun and then…
*BANG!*
*BANG!*
*BANG!*
*BANG!*
*BANG!*
The combatman had shot five bullets into the wolf's backside, all hitting different areas and the wolf was now in more pain then he was before, even to the point to where his eyes started filling with tears.
Chris had broken free of the grip and struck the two combatmen holding him before he was blocked and grabbed by more combatmen.
The combatmen then slammed his foot on one of the wolf's wounds, the wolf screamed again, but it was blood curdling and it was heard throughout the battlefield. Chris was now horrified at what he heard, hearing a soldier scream like that in pain was something he couldn't even begin to fathom, he heard stories about POWs, but never seeing the real thing firsthand.
Chris was now furious as he broke the grip of the combatmen and charged at the combatman as he tried to shoot the wolf in his heart before Chris struck the combatman with his whip, knocking him down, but not destroying him.
Chris then picked up and held the injured soldier in his arms as the wolf coughed up blood.
The combatmen tried to attack, but the torturer stopped them.
"Not yet, i wanna see the mutt die!" The combatman exclaimed menacingly.
Keoteo was now furious as well as he tried to get in the fight, but Weasel and Vixen stopped him and tried to hold him back.
Chris was angered more than enough to start chew out the torturer.
"YOU HEARTLESS BASTARD! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO HIM, HE WASN'T EVEN HURTING ANYONE!"
"He was just collateral damage; he was nothing, Sting."
"C-collateral...DAMAGE!? HE WAS JUST NOTHING BUT CANNON FODDER TO YOU!?"
"That's right."
The wolf soldier then started to speak weakly to Chris.
"S-Sting?"
"Yeah?"
"W-were you o-one of th-the aliens who l-landed on our base?"
"Yes, i am."
"W-Who are you?"
"My name is Chris, i'm a Gunnery Sergeant in United States Marine Corps."
"M-My name is Chris, too. "
The two shared a slight laugh before the wolf now known as Chris started coughing up more blood as tears flowed from his eyes down his face.
"C-Chris, can y-you p-promise me something?"
"Yeah, what is it?"
"I want you *hngh!* to promise me t-that you'll defeat h-him, m-make sure his crime does n-not go unpunished. P-Please, i'm b-begging you."
"I promise, Chris."
Chris started to smile as the tears flowed freely and he almost started crying.
"Thank...you."
Those were Chris' final words as he succumbed to his injures and went out smiling.
(Cue 'Hard Corps (The Warrior Song)' by Sean Householder)
The Eagle born to those who pledged their lives and sacred honor was smiled upon by God and freed from chains and iron collar.
The marine set the wolf's body down and gave him a salute before starting to walk over to the combatman, pulling out a card with the symbol of a right avian wing with a blue orb on it with a wind background; pulling out the card cause hurricane force winds to erupt and blow at the combatmen. As Chris started walking, he started speaking in latin.
He is held aloft on unity and by History revered,
for preserving peace through strength his wings now reach across two hundred years.
"Oderint dum metuant. Flectere si nequeo superos, Acheronta movebo. Ego sum a eros Marinis et ego sum...SEMPER FIDELIS! (Let them hate so long as they fear. If i can't bend the will of heaven, I'll shall move hell. I am a United States Marine and i am...ALWAYS FAITHFUL!)"
But for each of those, and one year more, God has smiled upon The Corps,
from the Barbary Coast to the Eastern Sand, by sword, by gun, or by bare hand.
The wrist device changed it appearance to resemble a bow like weapon as Sting put the card in the device.
"Survive Mode!"
So it's been, and shall be weighed: though many are born, few are "made".
Faithful Always, they shall remain...dogs to loose when war is waged.
('Hard Corps (The Warrior Song)' cuts and ends.)
Chris started to become engulfed in wind as he screamed before a flash glowed, temporarily blinding the combatmen before it dimmed; revealing Sting's survive mode.
His body had gold trim to it, it seemed to have a advanced mode of his armor as it had Sting's sting ray design to it. There were golden stingrays on his arms and legs; gold armor on his visor and his "ponytail" was golden too.
Sting charged into battle in a blinding rage, but the red combatman disappeared before the marine could hit him, but Sting was now taking out combatmen left and right.
With the last few combatmen left, Chris pulled another card out with the symbol on his cartridge surrounded by blades and the marine put it in his wrist device.
"Final Vent!"
Sting's monster appeared and it suddenly got a mechanical style to it as Sting jumped on it and it transformed into a motorcycle before releasing electrical blasts and rammed through the combatmen, destroying them.
"Semper Fi."
Meteor was fighting combatmen has he pushed the third lever on his wrist device and put his finger on the scanner.
"Saturn Ready? OK. Saturn!"
Saturn suddenly appeared on his right hand and Raymond swung it, releasing the rings to act as blades, striking the combatmen and destroying them until there was one left.
He then grabbed the device from his belt and put it in the socket on his wrist device before putting his finger on the scanner again.
"Limit Break! OK."
Meteor charged at the lone combatman and started punching him repeatedly, sending him up in the air before Meteor finished him off with one final punch.
The battle was now over, the battalion of combatmen had been defeated. The wolf soldiers started to cheer for the victory of the Riders, but that ceased when they saw Sting carrying Chris' dead body.
A group of them took the body of their wolf comrade and they gave a howl in remembrance as the Riders demorphed and went back inside the wolves' HQ as the captain and the two lieutenants followed them.
A few hours pass and the Riders are now pondering why SHOCKER is here.
"Maybe they want to take over this place." Michael suggested.
"That could be it, but there's got to be a reason." Chris responded.
"And what about that red combatman? What's his deal?" Trent asked.
"I've never seen or even heard of a red SHOCKER combatman." Raymond confirmed.
"Maybe it's something here that they either need or want, but what is it?" Matt responded.
"I think maybe we can answer that." A voice said, as the Riders turned to see a hedgehog and a squirrel in camo uniforms with the hedgehog having a spiked helmet and the squirrel having a plain camo helmet. Their uniforms had red collars on them, black belts with gun holster connected with gun inside and combat boots.
Suddenly, Captain Keoteo, Lieutenant Weasel and Lieutenant Vixen pulled their guns and so did the Squirrel and Hedgehog.
"Are those North Korean soldiers?" Chris asked, whispering.
"I don't think so, their uniforms look more like cheap knock offs than the real deal." Matt answered in the same voice tone.
Matt then stood in front of the Squirrel and Hedgehog as so did the other Riders.
"What are you doing?" Keoteo asked
"Look, mate. Can we please hear them out before you all go guns blazing?" Matt responded.
Keoteo knew the SHOCKER threat wasn't over yet, so he put his gun down; as well as Lt Weasel and Vixen.
The Riders got out of the way as the hedgehog approached Keoteo.
"Oh, By the way; you two never introduced yourselves." Michael said.
"I am Geumsaegi of Flower Hill and this is my CO, Goseumdochi." The Squirrel said.
"G'day then, I'm Brigadier Matt Williams of the Royal Aussie Corps of Military Police." Matt responded as the other Riders introduced themselves.
"Commander Trent Harness, United States Navy."
"Major Raymond Sakoda, United States Air Force."
"Lt Commander Michael Madison, United States Coast Guard."
"And i'm Gunnery Sergeant Chris Ramirez, United States Marine Corps."
Geumsaegi and Goseumdochi were understandably confused.
"Aussie? United States? I've never heard of those places." Goseumdochi said.
"Can we please get back to the task at hand? What did you two want to tell us?" Trent responded.
"I think it's kinda my fault." Geumsaegi answered.
"You got two of my soldiers killed!?" Keoteo exclaimed as tried to grab his gun again before Matt stopped him from doing so.
"What happened?" Raymond asked.
"We saw this mechanical base off the coast of Flower Hill. Myself, Goseumdochi, Muloli and other members of the Flower Hill military went there to investigate. We managed to sneak through the base and we saw this giant rocket with their symbol; it was some type of bird holding a wreath with a S in the shape of a lightning bolt." Geumsaegi explained.
"That's SHOCKER alright." Matt responded.
"Anyways, i saw this handprint scanner that i recently found out that i unknowingly and accidentally touched when the "SHOCKER" soldiers started firing at us. We did escape the base, but we lost a squirrel in the mission when the soldiers gunned him down." Geumsaegi finished explaining.
"But we did manage to get something." Goseumdochi said as he put a paper on Keoteo's desk.
It was battle plans, outlining what SHOCKER is going to do.
"By the way, what's radiation?" Goseumdochi asked the Riders.
"Radiation? Let me see that paper." Matt responded as Keoteo gave the Brigadier the paper and he and the Riders read it.
"80%!? But that's impossible! So, you said you found a rocket in the base, right?" Matt asked.
"Right." Goseumdochi answered.
"'n' there wasn't any other rockets in the facility?" Matt asked again.
"Not that we've found so far." Goseumdochi responded.
"So, either SHOCKER has another nuke hidden somewhere…" Trent started to say.
"Or we're dealing with something that has the power of eight nukes combined." Matt finished.
"Nukes? What are those?" Geumsaegi asked.
"They're rockets that when they impact, creates an explosion shaped like a mushroom and delivers a powerful wave of energy that can cause mass destructions and deaths, those things can kill anyone in a hundred square miles!" Matt explained.
"Oh my!" Vixen exclaimed.
"Wait, what about that eight nukes thing? How far will that go?" Goseumdochi asked.
"Probably 800 miles." Matt responded.
"Flower Hill is in that path!" Geumsaegi exclaimed.
"So what are we supposed to do? It'll destroy us both!" Weasel asked.
"Temporary alliance." Goseumdochi suggested.
"What!? There is no way i am working with Flower Hill scum!" Keoteo exclaimed.
"And i'm not working with imperialist fleabags!" Geumsaegi responded.
"Imperialists?" The riders exclaimed.
"Yeah, they want to take over Flower Hill and kill us all!" Geumsaegi answered.
"Why you-! I oughta-!" Keoteo exclaimed before Matt stopped their bickering before it turned violent.
"Look! If we don't team up to stop this threat, there will be no more anything if they fire that nuke!" Matt exclaimed.
Keoteo sighed in frustration at this.
"Fine!" Keoteo responded before him and Goseumdochi shook hands, their temporary alliance with the wolves had been formed.
