Kamen Rider CD
Episode Two: Sonic Speed 1991
LAST TIME,… ON KAMEN RIDER CD…
An American otaku, Christian Rice, has begun his destiny, and and has now gained the power of Kamen Rider CD. After defeating the monster called Another Sonic, he was sucked into a portal, and now, he shall meet the Fastest Thing Alive…
WORLD OF SONIC.
" It… can't be!" CD shouts.
There, in front of him, is a blue hedgehog, with green eyes and wearing red sneakers with white straps. There is Sonic the Hedgehog. "Who… are you?" the gaming icon says.
CD removes his Ridewatch from his Driver, reverting to Christian Rice. He stands there, a huge smile on his face. "Y-You're… Sonic the Hedgehog!" Christian says, fanboying.
Sonic groans when he notices this, saying, "Oh, no. A fanboy. Look, I don't have time to sign an autograph right now. See ya."
Sonic prepares to dash off, but before he does, Christian yells, "Wait!", and grabs onto him, the two of them speeding off.
Sonic notices that Christian is holding onto him, and he looks annoyed. "Hey! Let go of me! I'm not a cab service!"
Christian, however, is holding on for dear life. His face and hair are flapping in the wind. "I can't!" he mutters, "At your speed, if I let go, I'll die!"
Sonic sighs and shrugs, adding, "Fine. But, when we get to Tails' Lab, you're off of me!"
Christian nods 'yes', and Sonic continues his run to Tails' Lab.
MEANWHILE… DEATH EGG.
Meanwhile, in the latest version of the Death Egg battlestation, Dr. Ivo Robotnik, also known as Dr. Eggman, is throwing stuff around the room, looking frustrated. Meanwhile, his loyal henchbots, Orbot and Cubot, cower in fear. "I can't believe that brat defeated my Another Sonic! What can I do now?!" he shouts, and without warning, the Another Sonic Ridewatch arrives from a portal.
This shocks Eggman, and the two bots pop out from their hiding spot. "Wadd'ya know? That little watch came back to ya, boss!" Cubot says, and Orbot tells him to shush.
Eggman picks up the Ridewatch, an evil grin on his face. "Yes," he says, "And once I do some experiments on it, Another Sonic will defeat both that brat, and that meddlesome hedgehog! I'll be able to take over the entire Omniverse without them standing in my way!"
Eggman walks over to the deactivated Metal Sonic, and he turns it on. Metal's eyes light up, and Eggman grins evilly. "Metal, I want you to take out this brat here!" he says, showing Metal a picture of Christian.
Metal dashes off, and Eggman evilly laughs.
TAILS' LAB.
A few minutes later, Sonic skids to a stop, and Christian flies off of him, landing on the ground. He coughs, wiping dust off of his clothes. Sonic walks up to him, as Christian stands up. "Okay, kid, start talking," he says, "What are you doing here?"
Christian gulps, nervous. "Should I tell Sonic that he's a fictional character?" he thinks to himself, "Will that be dangerous? Maybe I should wait for Tails? He might be able to explain it better to him."
At that moment, a droning noise starts, getting louder and louder. This worries Sonic and confuses Christian. "Hey, uh, do you hear that?" Christian asks, and Sonic yells, "Move!", before he pushes Christian out of the way.
Then, Metal Sonic crashes into the ground, staring down Sonic and Christian. "Metal Sonic?!" Christian says in shock, and then, Sonic pushes him again.
This causes Sonic to get hit by Metal Sonic, who was charging at them. Sonic goes flying into a tree, and Christian yells his name, running up to help him. "What the hell is Metal doing here?!" he asks, "Is Eggman back?"
Christian notices that Metal is charging at them, so he summons the CD Slasher, and he blocks Metal's swipe with the blade. Christian stares at Metal, growling, before he knocks the robot back. He then pulls out the CD Ridewatch, and he inserts it into a slot on the Slasher.
FINISH TIME! CD!
He charges at Metal, and presses its button.
CREATIVE DESTRUCTION!
The blade then glows green, and Christian slashes at Metal Sonic. This sends the robot to the ground, and as Metal gets up, he sparks, looking considerably damaged. It flies off, leaving Christian and Sonic confused. "Man, your gear is powerful!" Sonic says, as Christian helps him up.
Christian replies, "Thanks. I just got it, so I'm still learning how to use it."
Then, the lab's door opens, and out run Miles "Tails" Prower, two-tailed genius and Sonic's "bro". "Sonic!" he screams, "Are you alright?"
Sonic waves at him, answering, "You worry, Tails. I'm fine. Metal's attacks are nothing."
Tails then turns, a nervous smile to his face. He notices Christian, and is intrigued. "Oh, hello. Are you the one who helped Sonic?" he asks, "I'm Tails, Sonic's best friend."
" I'm Christian Rice," the human retorts, smiling.
Sonic turns to Christian, a serious look on his face. "Now, as we were discussing before Metal RUDELY interrupted us. What are you doing around here? Why did you follow me?"
Christian sighs, and finally, he explains. "I come from a different world," he says, "And in my world, your world and inhabitants are video game characters."
This shocks Sonic, and intrigues Tails. "What the?! You expect us to believe that?" the hedgehog retorts, but Tails says, "Well, Sonic, there are many different worlds and universes. There's a chance that some worlds descend from the creations of other worlds."
Sonic is confused by Tails calm demeanor, as is Christian. "You… You believe me?" Christian asks, as Sonic asks, "You believe him, Tails?"
Tails laughs, and he says, "Sure. We've done much wierder things before. Alternate universes, fighting gods. A giant Omniverse is not far off." Tails then notices the CD Ridewatch, which Christian is holding.
" What's that, Christian?" Tails asks, and Christian realizes he's talking about the Ridewatch.
" Oh, this is a Ridewatch. It's an item from a show I watch. This lets me transform into a Kamen Rider, a hero of justice," he explains.
Then, out of nowhere, a new Blank Ridewatch appears in Christian's other hand. This shocks the three, and Christian says, "A new Ridewatch?!"
Tails holds his hand out, asking, "Can I take a look at them?"
Christian nods 'yes', and he hands the two watches to Tails, who examines them closely. "Hmm," he says, "If you let me do an experiment on them, I might be able to help you."
Christian smiles at this, and asks, "Really, Tails?! You mean it?!" Tails nods 'yes', and the three all smile. "Awesome! Let's get to work then, guys!" Sonic says, and the heroes head to the Lab, ready to begin.
BACK AT THE DEATH EGG…
Eggman screams in rage, throwing things at Metal Sonic, which scares Orbot and Cubot. "You bumbling bot!" he yells, "You couldn't beat that brat! You couldn't even take a hit from his sword!"
Metal Sonic then makes beeping noises, and Orbot says, "Um, boss, Metal Sonic says that he's gotten some data on the boy, which he thinks might be of help to you."
Eggman stands there, and a smile slowly grows on his face. He then pats Metal Sonic's head, and says, "Wonderful, my crazy creation! You've served a purpose yet!"
He then hooks Metal Sonic up to a machine that houses the Another Sonic Ridewatch. Metal Sonic's eyes then glow, as data is transferred from him to the machine, which flows into the Ridewatch. It glows a dark color, and Eggman laughs. "Now that Another Sonic has that brat's data, him and Sonic stand no chance!" he shouts.
A HOUR LATER… TAILS' LAB.
" So, you fought some weird monster that looked like me?" Sonic asks Christian, who was telling Sonic the story of how he ended up in Sonic's World. Sonic is intrigued, but also disgusted at a doppelganger of him. "Geez, and I thought Metal and Shadow were bad enough," he says, and Christian adds, "Not to mention the ones you fight in other media." This confuses Sonic, who adds, "You know, the more you say it, the harder it gets to believe that I'm a fictional character." The two of them chuckle, but then, before either of them can say something else, a giant explosion goes off, causing the Lab to shake and startle them. The two look at each other, and run into the lab's main room.
" Tails! Are you alright?!" Sonic asks.
Tails, laying on the floor, covered in soot, coughs, before waving the smoke out a window. "Yeah, I'm fine," the fox says, "Just didn't expect that huge reaction."
Christian helps Tails up, and when the smoke clears, standing on a dish Tails was using, are two Ridewatches. One of them is the CD watch, but the other is different. It has the year 1991 on it, as well as a silhouette of Sonic's head. This confuses everyone, and Sonic says, "1991?"
" It was the year you were created," Christian answers, before looking at the CD watch and noticing that it has the year 1997, as well as a "CD" symbol.
"1997," he says, "My birth year. I guess these watches have the years of creation on them."
He takes the two watches, the CD and the new Sonic watches, and pockets them.
At that moment, there is a knock on the door. Tails walks to it, opens it, and standing in the doorway is Amy Rose, the self-proclaimed girlfriend of Sonic. She stands there, a smile on her face. "Hey, Tails," she says, and Sonic freezes.
Tails, a little nervous, replies, "H-Hey, Amy. What'cha doing?"
Amy then turns to Sonic, as her smile turns to a face of rage, and she pulls out her giant Piko Piko Hammer. "Me?" she says, "I came to drag Sonic to our date, since he promised me one and he's late!"
Sonic slowly backs up, looking afraid, muttering, "A-Amy, wait! I can explain! This guy, Christian, here needed our help!"
Amy then stops, and turns to Christian, who is nervous. He turns to Sonic, giving him a "WTF?!" look, as Sonic has essentially shifted Amy's rage off of himself.
" Oh. Hello then. I'm Amy Rose," she says, curtsying to him, and Christian chuckles nervously, answering, "Christian Rice."
" So, what's going on?" she asks Tails, who explains the situation to her.
She then turns to Christian, tears forming in her eyes. "What?!" she cries, "So,… Sonic and I aren't a real couple?"
Sonic looks a little irked at this statement, muttering, "Never were a couple, real or not."
Christian looks a little sad, answering, "Sorry, Amy. But, if it makes you any better, I ship you two together."
This shocks Sonic, but Amy looks a little happy, hugging Christian. Then, Amy lets go, and she sighs, saying, "Well, at least I have fans."
However, before anyone can do anything, a long arm comes in through the doorway, grabbing onto Amy, and pulls her outside. She screams, and the guys run after her. There, they see Amy being dropped into a special capsule, which is sat into the Egg Mobile, being piloted by Eggman as usual. The heroes scowl at the villain's appearance. "Eggman!" Sonic shouts, "Why are you here?!"
Eggman laughs, and he responds, "Oh, I just wanted to cause some trouble for you, after my latest scheme failed! So, I decided to kidnap your little girlfriend!"
This irritates Sonic, who shouts, "She's NOT my girlfriend!" Amy, meanwhile, has her hammer out, trying to break the capsule, to no avail.
"Let! Me! OUT!" she screams, looking frustrated.
Then, to the heroes' surprise, Eggman pulls out the Another Sonic Ridewatch. Christian can't believe it! "The Another Sonic Ridewatch?!" he says, "Why do you have it?!"
Eggman chuckles, before explaining. "Oh, well you see, I was given a Blank Watch by a mysterious individual, and when I experimented on it, this was created! And now that Metal Sonic has given it your data, you'll stand no chance against my Another Sonic!"
Sonic is annoyed at the name. "ANOTHER Sonic, Eggman? Really?"
" Keep on joking, Sonic! They'll be the last you ever make," Eggman says. He presses the button on the watch.
SONIC!
It floats down, before morphing into Another Sonic. The Mobians are all shocked at the monster, noticing his appearance. "Is this the monster you were talking about, Christian?" Sonic asks, and Christian nods, answering, "Yep! And now, I'll beat it!"
Christian puts on the Ziku Driver, turns the CD Ridewatch's dial, and presses its button.
CD!
He inserts it into the Ziku Driver, before pressing its button. The clock image appears behind him, freaking out Sonic and Tails. The two of them back up, and Christian poses. "HENSHIN!", he shouts, before turning the driver, and completing his transformation.
His body is covered in his suit, the visor forms, and he now stands as Kamen Rider CD. Sonic and Tails are amazed, and Eggman is irritated. "I shall…," CD says, "…protect the Omniverse!"
The heroes charge at Another Sonic, throwing punches at him. He dodges Sonic's, but CD's hit him, sending him back. Another Sonic skids to a stop on his feet, and he growls. He jumps up, grabbing the capsule containing Amy, and he dashes off. "Well, you brats, try and keep up with Another Sonic!" Eggman says, as he follows after his creation.
Sonic charges a Super Peel Out, saying, "C'mon, guys!"
He dashes off, and Tails follows close behind. CD stands there, confused. "What do I do?" he asks, "I wish I had super speed."
Then, CD has a thought, and he looks at the Ridewatch Holder on his left arm. There's a watch that reads "Bike" in katakana, and he grabs it. "Yes! Perfect!" he says, before pressing the button on it and throws it down, the watch growing and morphing into a full size motorcycle.
It is now the Ride Striker, the bike from Kamen Rider Zi-O. He gets on, but stops. "I don't have a license. Can I do this?", he thinks, but then says, "I have no other choice!"
He starts the bike up, and follows the others, eventually catching up. Sonic smirks, saying, "I didn't know you had a bike!"
CD shrugs, saying, "And I don't have a license! I'm surprised I can drive!"
Eventually, the heroes catch up to Eggman and Another Sonic, Eggman once again holding the capsule. CD reverts the bike to its watch mode, and he prepares to fight, as does Sonic and Tails. The three charge at him, but now, he easily dodges their attacks. He throws energy rings at them, knocking them back. Sonic growls angrily, saying, "Dang it! If I only had the Chaos Emeralds!"
Sonic then homing attacks at Another Sonic, but the monster does his own, and the two collide. Another Sonic is more powerful, however, and he knocks Sonic into a tree. "Sonic!" Tails yells, as him and CD run to help Sonic up.
However, Another Sonic dashes up to them, and kicks them into Sonic, knocking them all down. The three struggle to get up, as Another Sonic prepares to defeat them. The three rise, looking tired. CD pants, as he thinks, "What can we do? If only I could move as fast as him…"
Then, the thought occurs to CD. He pulls out the Sonic Ridewatch, and he turns the dial, before pressing the button on it.
SONIC!
CD inserts it into the D'3 Slot on the Driver. Its display turns blue, and he presses the button, before muttering, "Armor Time."
He turns the driver, and then, as the Rider Time jingle repeats, a hologram of a Warp Ring appears, before it summons a physical set of armor. It resembles Sonic, which shocks the Sonic characters. It poses like Sonic, and then, CD touches it. The armor splits into pieces, and flies around CD.
ARMOR TIME! SONIC SPEED! SO-NIC!
The armor attaches to CD, before a new visor forms, reading "SNC" for Sonic. CD stands there, now as Kamen Rider CD Sonic Armor. "Presenting the Sonic Armor!", he says, posing like Sonic, "Let's do it to it!"
" What the?!" Eggman shouts, astounded, "We were never told about this!"
Another Sonic growls, and he charges at CD, who easily dodges the attack. "You're too slow!", he says to Another Sonic, before kicking him around.
Another Sonic shoots emerald and ring projections at CD, but he slashes them apart with the CD Slasher. He slashes at Another Sonic, knocking him back, before saying, "C'mon! Step it up!"
This irritates Another Sonic, who begins to charge up as a ball. "Oh, ready to show off, eh? Bring it on!", CD says, before pressing the watches' buttons.
FINISH TIME! SONIC!
CD presses the Driver's button, and spins it.
SONIC… TIME BUST!
CD charges up as a ball, before returning to normal, covered in a blue aura. "Blast away!", he shouts, before using a Lightspeed Attack on Another Sonic.
Afterward, Another Sonic falls to the ground, sparks going off, before he blows up. CD reverts to normal Christian, and the heroes stare at Eggman menacingly, who just smirks nervously. Tails grabs the capsule, and Sonic charges up a Spin Dash, before hitting the Egg Mobile, sending it and Eggman flying. "I HATE THAT HEDGEHOG!", the scientist shouts as he flies off.
Tails pushes the button on the capsule, freeing Amy, who walks out, running to Sonic and hugging him tightly. "Oh, Sonic! Thank you!" she says, before Sonic lightly pushes her off.
"You're welcome, Amy. But, Christian did most of the work," he says.
Amy realizes this, and she walks over to Christian, curtsying to him. He chuckles, as she says, "Thank you, Christian."
" Oh, it was nothing," he says, nervous.
Then, Sonic and Tails walk up to him, and Sonic holds out his hand for a hand shake. Christian accepts the hand shake, and everyone smiles. "It's been a honor teaming up with you, Sonic," Christian says, and Sonic replies, "Same to you, Kamen Rider CD."
Everyone chuckles, but then, a portal opens up under Christian, and he falls into it.
WORLD OF ?.
Now, in a dungeon, its interior wet and slimy, a portal opens up, and Christian falls out of it. He rubs his head as he gets up, saying, "Man, I'll never get used to that."
As Christian looks around, he gets a feeling that something is familiar. However, before he can think about what world he's on, a sword slashes at him, sending him flying, his pain crying out. When Christian stands and turns to face his attacker, he is shocked. It is a lizard man, holding a saber and dressed in armor. It hisses at him, and he thinks, "Shit! What now?!"
Then, out of nowhere, a voice cries out, "Move out of the way!", and another says, "NOW!"
Christian jumps to his right, as two flashes of light, one black and one blue, dash into the lizard man, striking him. The lizard man hisses in pain, before exploding in a burst of light, resembling panes of glass. Christian then turns to the people who saved him, but is shocked when he sees who they are. The two people who saved him stand there, swords in their hands. One is a male, clothed in gear as black as his hair. He holds two swords, one black and one a light blue. The other person is a female, her blue hair flowing, as she sheathes her blue rapier in its sheathe, attached to her white armor with blue trim. His saviors are Kirito and Asuna, lovers and the main protagonists of the Sword Art Online series.
