Sorry if you guys waited too long, like I said before it's due to my personal life, I get busy with a lot of stuff. But anyway lets get on with the story.


I don't owe Kamen Rider Eternal or Cross Ange. I am doing this for fun not profit.

Kamen Rider Eternal: Rondo of Angel, Dragon, & Eternal

Chapter 3: Earning Trust

Kyoya and Salamandinay were now back at the castle, being drop off by the dragon that took them to the tower.

"Thank you, for you service." Salamandinay told the dragon before it fly's away, and soon truned to Kyoya. "Alright Kyoya, I'm going to make the preparations for you living quarters, since you'll mostly be living here."

"Oh thank you." Kyoya slightly bowed. "You don't know how happy it makes me to sleep on a nice soft bed."

"You're most welcome then. Now follow me." Salamadinay said as she heads towards a building, Kyoya followed her.


They were inside a hallway, and stop at a door. Salamandinay knocks on the door.

"Come in." Salamandinay opens a door inside, was a young woman wear some sort of doctor's outfit, with orange hair wearing goggles on top of her head, and has clear blue eyes.

"Oh Salamandinay-sama welcome." She greeted her before eyeing on Kyoya. "So this is the man I presumed?"

"Yes he is. Kyoya this is Dr. Gecko, our medical doctor here." Salamandinay introduced. Kyoya was thinking on how bizarre some of the people of this world names almost sounds like lizards.

"It's nice to meet you doctor." Kyoya slightly bowed.

"Oh, you don't have to be formal to me." Dr. Gecko told him while waving her hand. "I presumed you brought him here, to be check out right?"

"Yes." Salamandinay nodded.

"Check out?" Kyoya said.

"Dr. Gecko is going to give a medical checkup. To see if our atmosphere is effecting you." Salamandinay told him.

"Really?" Kyoya blinked. "But I feel fine."

"But it's best to be safe than sorry." Salamandinay said before exited. "I'll leave him in your hands."

"You can count on me, my princess." Dr. Gecko said. Salamandinay soon leaves them. "Alright Kyoya-san, let's get your check up started. Care to sit on that chair?"

"Oh okay, sure." Kyoya said before sitting on it.

"Okay so mind taking off your shirt?" Dr. Gecko asked before bringing out a stethoscope.

"Okay, you're the doctor." Kyoya did what she requested, while didn't see that Dr. Gecko has a very sinister smile on her face, excited to see his male body.


(Play 9 Lives by Shoko Nakagawa)

(Instrumental) Two earths are floating next to each other and then crash into one another which caused an explosion and screen turn black revealing the title.

(Kyu kai neko wa ikiru to ii masu! Kokonotsu no inochi o motteru rashii) Kyoya was lying on top of the EternalGarry looking at the blue sky he then rise his hand to reach it and grabs the thin air.

(Moshikashite yume ni yabure ta toswite mo) Salamandinay was looking through her window at her village in the setting sun and turns at the other way.

(Nan do date hito mo ikinaoseru hazu sa) Ange was leaning her head on the wall, and then looks through her window at the moon in the night sky.

(Kagewinata ni sake) A wounded Alektra was walking in ruin battlefield while holding a wound where her right arm was.

(Ashita no kaze yo fuke) Jin Kazu with two Foundation X members was going down in an elevator.

(Kachimake ja nai) Embryo was smirking; the screen was zooming out, showing him on the shoulder of his Hysterica.

(Nante kirei sugi?) Kyoya put on the Lost Driver, and brought out the Eternal memory and soon transformed into Kamen Rider Eternal.

(Ikiru tteyuu koto to kakuto shiteru jibun ga koko ni irun da ze) Eternal turns the handle of his EternalTurbuler flying fast in the vast sky, charging at a squadron of Para-mail's. The Para-mail's fired at Eternal but he easily dodge's it and quickly attacks with his Eternal Edge and destroyed most of them.

(Yumemi te koron de teni soko mi te) Then the First Unit joins in and their Para-mail's transformed and charge at Eternal to attack but he dodges and counters them. Eternal then saw Ange on the Villkiss up in the sky driving towards him.

(Ikihaji sarashi te ikinui te yari tai) Eternal the fly's upward to charge at Ange they passed each other and eyeing on another. The Villkiss then transformed and drew its sword, while Eternal jumps of his bike and puts his Eternal Memory into his Maximum Drive slot on his Eternal Edge driving towards the Ragna-mail and then the two clash blades and are evenly match.

(Issho mono no issho nara) The screen then showed Aura imprison underneath the Dawn Tower of the Misurugi Empire, Eternal on EternalTurbuler flying with the Ryuu-Shin-Ki's towards the tower to free Aura.

(Ichido iki ta kurai ja tari nai darou) Defending the tower was Embryo on his Hysterica readying his Space Dimenison Cannon and fire, Salamandinay in her Enryugo firing her own Cannon and clashed at Embryo's shot.

(Utsukushii mono ya kanashimi ya konoyo wa) Kyoya was on a tall grass field looking at the setting sun, he turned around and Salamandinay behind him offering her hand, and they gently hold hands.

(Watashi ga shira nai koto darake de afureteru kara {Instrumental}) The scene change Kyoya and Salamandinay were walking together, then they turned around facing the screen, then it zooms out revealing Naga, Kaname, Dr. Gecko, and Aura Midgardia with several DRAGONS behind them.


Dr. Gecko was listening to Kyoya's heartbeat with the stethoscope.

"Okay, your heart sounds nice and strong." She said before putting the stethoscope away, then brought out a flashlight. "Okay, now follow the light."

She turned it on, and points it on his eye, and moves it left and right and Kyoya's eyes followed.

"Pupils, are okay as well." She brought tongue depressor. "This will the last thing, now say 'Ah' please."

"Ah." Kyoya opened his mouth, Dr. Gecko place the depressor on his tongue.

"Hmhm, okay," She pulled it out. "I say you're the picture of health."

"Okay, good to know." Kyoya said. "Also Dr. Gecko I have some questions to ask you if you have time."

"Alright feel free to tell me anything." She said.

"Okay, first I guess I want to know is to know why there are only women here, and not any men." Kyoya said.

"Well to answer your question, the princess told you on how our people want through genetic modification, correct?" She asked.

"Yes she did." Kyoya nodded.

"Did you notice some things about us that point them out?" Dr. Gecko asked.

"The wings and the tail." Kyoya said. Dr. Gecko nodded before unfolding her wings.

"That's right, when we gone through it, our bodies DNA have some features of that of dragons, such with the wings and tails, and to change our human forms as well." She said.

"Wait you and other females can change into a dragon like creatures as well?" Kyoya asked.

"Yes, you catch on quick." She folded her wings. "The larger ones are the males of our people; well females can change into smaller versions."

"Okay, I see." Kyoya nodded in understanding. "So how do you change between your humans forms to your DRAGON forms?"

"What do you think? The same thing we did to change to adapted to the earth's atmosphere, through genetic modification." Dr. Gecko told him.

"Oh yeah, I guess that is an obviously question." Kyoya chuckled rubbing his head. "But still how come there aren't any males."

"Well you see even though we females can change into human forms, the males genetic structure is different than ours, so the method we used can't work on the males." She explained.

"So you're saying their basically stuck like that forever?" Kyoya asked.

"Well I hadn't given up on to find a way to change them into human form. But yes." Dr. Gecko said.

'Oh wow, that's basically Kamen Riders in a way.' Kyoya thought because there was Kamen Rider there wasn't fully or full human to begin with, and that some of them gave up their humanity to keep the world safe. The males of this world gave up to be human, to cleanse the world, as atonement for their people's sins of the past, it was quite admirable.

"Okay, now we you go." Dr. Gecko said before bringing what looks like a cup of water. "You must be pretty thirstier by now, here drink up."

"Oh okay, thank you." Kyoya accepted the drink and soon drinks it before choking on it and cough. "A-Ah man! This isn't water! What is this …i-i-it t-taste really…a-awful~…"

Kyoya begins to feel light headed, and fallen on the floor, and everything turns black. And let's say he wasn't going to have a pleasant surprise when he wakes up.


(Outside of the castle)

"OH MY GOD WHAT'S HAPPENING?!" Kyoya scream was heard outside of the castle to the opened sky.


(Later)

Kyoya now fully dressed back into his cloths, was drinking water out of a water fountain, and then splashed water on his face.

Kyoya then started shivering, still remembering the experience of being Dr. Gecko's prime suspect of sexual studies, she told they didn't do that, Kyoya was like thank god for that.

But it also made him worry about one thing, although his happy to find people in this village, he's probably the only male with a humanoid body in all the planet, and that young girls in this world will tend to get curious about a lot of things about a human male body.

"Good god…" Kyoya mutters as he was rubbing his face with his hand. "I might have to learn to sleep with one eye opened to make sure a girl doesn't sneak onto my bed."

"I take it you didn't enjoy being a research subject?" Kyoya looks to Salamandinay with Naga and one his wardens from earlier with the spear as well.

"Okay, tell me this did you know that was going to happened?" Kyoya asked.

"Well I sort have the idea she might pull something like this." Salamandinay said.

"Okay you know what I rather just forget like it never happened…" Kyoya sighed before snapping out of it. "So will I get my stuff back?"

"Actually the council decided on keeping your items away from you for a while, because they don't seem trust you too well because…" Salamandinay started.

"No I get it, I'm outsider and most of the people here don't know anything about me, I understand." Kyoya said because if an outsider enters his town he'll get suspicious too.

"That's good to hear. Also to let you know that we've prepared a room for you stay, you're already acquainted with Naga and Kaname did you not?" Salamandinay asked.

"Yes I do very much so." Kyoya nodded while mending his wrist still remembering the pain Naga dished him earlier.

"Well they'll show you to your room, and they'll be watching you for a while, council's orders." Salamandinay told him.

This made Kyoya feel a little nervous after his little experience with Dr. Gecko, but he won't resist because he wants to earn trust of these people.

"Okay, good to know." Kyoya said.

"Alright, Naga, Kaname make sure to keep a close eye on him. Understood?" Salamandinay asked.

"Yes, Salamadinay-sama!" They both nodded.

"Good I'll leave him to." Salamandinay unfolded her wings and leaves.

"Now follow us." Kaname said to Kyoya before she and Naga walked to lead Kyoya to his quarters.

Kyoya followed them.


They were now walking in a hallway. They soon stop by a door.

"Here's where you'll be staying." Naga opened the door; Kyoya went inside and look around seeing it was a traditional Japanese room.

"Hmm, almost feels like home." Kyoya said before Naga gripped his shoulder.

"Just so we're clear I still don't trust you. If you do anything that endangers my people or to Salamadinay-sama, I'll kill you." Naga told him. "Do I make myself clear?"

"Crystal." Kyoya nodded. Naga soon lets go and closed his door and heard her locking it.

"Guess it might take a while to fully earn their trust." Kyoya said.

Kyoya then took off his jackets and shoes, and lay on the bed. It was like lying on marshmallow, after sleeping on hard floor using his bag as a pillow. But he can't let his guard down because of what happened with Dr. Gecko.

Kyoya hopes there's wasn't going any incidents when his sleeping, as he begin to doze off.


(Meanwhile with Jin Kazu)

Jin Kazu was observing his computer screens, while typing on his keyboard, before hearing ring from his computer and saw that someone was calling him it was the spy he sent to observe the people of Aura, and soon answer it.

"Yes?" Jin Kazu said.

"Hello sir, I have a report of Aura's people." A warped voice said.

"What is it?" Jin Kazu asked.

"The one with Eternal's armor appeared to have made contact with them."

"What?!" Jin Kazu exclaimed before standing up. "That is not good if he join forces with Aura's people they might stand a chance of pushing back Arzenal's forces."

"True but they don't trust him yet. They confiscated his Driver and his Gaia Memories, he is powerless and defenseless."

"That is indeed good to hear." Jin Kazu smirked. "Alright I need you to eliminate him and when you're done with that, take the T2 Memories and bring them back. Understood?"

"Yes, sir." The spy said before ending the call.

"Is there a problem Mr. Kazu?" Jin Kazu looks and saw a man in the shadows leaning on a wall dress in dark green suit with a red tie.

"Oh it's nothing Mr. Embryo, just a minor problem to deal with." Jin Kazu told him.

"Really? Then why were you yelling for some reason?" Embryo asked.

"Like I said just a minor problem and you shouldn't worry about. Just leave to me. After all we are business partners." Jin Kazu said.

"Very well then," Embryo soon got off the wall. "I'll leave you to it then, I do value our partnership because your Foundation X is indeed helpful to me, not to mention we have the same interest. Good luck to whatever it is you're doing."

Embryo soon walks into the shadows and disappeared. After he was gone Jin Kazu smirks.

"Oh don't worry because I don't believe in luck…you simple minded fool." Jin Kazu said because even though they're in a partnership, Jin Kazu has some plans to deal with Embryo.


(Back to the World of Aura, Council's room)

The council are now discussing about Kyoya.

"We shouldn't trust him. For all we can know, he would be a spy for Embryo, and his story is just madness."

"But it didn't change the fact that he knows about our great mother's name. He may have been rude earlier, but it was because he was suspicious of us as we are to him, when we captured him. I say we should give him the benefit of the doubt"

"He's dangerous with the power he possesses; he can kill us all without batting an eye."

"If he would have he would have done it sooner. Our scouts say he has the power to not just teleport but to fly as well, he would have attacked us at night while we were asleep but he didn't. He also claims that he only wants answers here."

"But it still doesn't change the fact his just as dangerous as Embryo."

"Only with his items, which he don't have as for the moment."

"High Priestess, what are your thoughts about our…guest?"

The High Priestess soon gave them her thoughts.

"Weather that Kyoya Yagami is a help to us or a threat is yet to be seen, I choice that he needs to prove that to us by his actions with us, to slowly earn our trust." The High Priestess gave them her answer.

They thought about and agreed to the High Priestess suggestion.


Inside the room where they were keeping Kyoya's items, his Stag Phone was ringing meaning there was a Dopant in the area.


(Back with Kyoya)

Kyoya was now sleeping on the bed. A window quietly opens, and something come inside the room, and walks towards Kyoya near his bed, then the thing forms a knife in its hand, and was about to stab Kyoya…

Kyoya rolled and one of his eyes was opened, and saw the knife coming, Kyoya quickly reacted and redirects its aim to his bed. Kyoya pushed the assassin back and soon got off his bed, and got a good look at the assassin.

The assassin is dressed in dark trench coat with a hood up that completely covered its face with darkness, with matching clothing.

To Kyoya it looks like someone dressed as an Organization 13 outfit from Kingdom Hearts.

The cloak assassin pinned Kyoya to the wall, and was about to stab him again aimed for his head, Kyoya quickly dodges.

"Who are you?! Did Foundation X sent you?!" Kyoya demanded.

The assassin didn't answer but pushed Kyoya to the floor, the assassin was going to stab him again, Kyoya quickly stops to by grabbing onto his forearms, but the assassin was far stronger and slowly keeps going unlit his dagger was inches away from Kyoya's eye…

"What's going on in here?!" Naga and Kaname soon opened the door, and saw the assassin. Naga quickly draws her swords and quickly slashed at the assassin, but the assassin quickly dodges it but was now away from Kyoya.

Soon both Naga and Kaname quickly come between them. The assassin grips his fist in frustration, and soon jumps towards the shadow behind him absorbing into the shadow, making a tactical retreat.

They were on edge for a while, but soon lower their guard.

"It got away." Naga said.


After hearing what happened Salamandinay soon arrived to Kyoya's room to check on him.

Salamandinay went inside and saw Kyoya sitting on his bed, and soon walks to him.

"Are you alright, Kyoya?" Salamadinay asked.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Kyoya told her.

"That's good to hear." Salamandinay said before looking at Naga and Kaname. "What about the intruder? How did he sneak into our castle unnoticed?"

"We're not sure how, not even the guards outside, and we don't know what the intruder was." Naga said.

"Actually I have an idea on what he is." Kyoya stated. "He's called a Dopant, a type of superhuman which can use the power of Gaia Memories to transform into Dopants."

"Gaia Memories?" Salamandinay said.

"You remember the small devices I used for my Driver and my weapon?" Kyoya asked they nodded. "Those are Gaia Memories but the ones I used are slightly different to Dopant ones, and no doubt that Foundation X sent him to kill me and to get my Memories."

"Okay we understand that, but how many Gaia Memories does this Foundation X have?" Kaname asked.

"About as many words in the world," Kyoya said. "Gaia Memories are based out of certain letters of anything, like for instance an 'S' can be 'Swords' which make someone into a Dopant with any type of sword, or 'W' for 'Water' that can make a Dopant that uses water as weapon or become water itself. The assassin is probable a Dopant that uses shadow or darkness that blend in the night or sneak as a shadow without anyone noticing it."

"Most trouble sum." Salamandinay said and thinking if Foundation X is in alliance with Embryo then it means reclaiming Aura will become even more difficult. "Then what can we do against this Dopant?"

"Well I can you this that they're pretty much unstoppably, and your weapons won't be effective against it." Kyoya said.

Which made them a little worried, Naga have an idea.

"Princess what about the Ryuu-Shin-Ki's?" Naga asked.

"Ryuu-Shin-Ki's, what are those?" Kyoya asked which made Naga glared at him. "Never mind."

"Naga it is a good idea, but they're still in development we can't use them right now." Salamandinay stated which made Naga remember about that.

"I forget I'm sorry." Naga said before bowing her head.

"You don't have to be sorry about anything." Salamadinay told her.

Kyoya then had an idea before standing up.

"Well there's something we could do." Kyoya said getting their attention. "We used me I'm the Dopant's target…"

"Absolutely not, I can't let you just be willing to be killed." Salamandinay told him.

"You didn't let me finish," Kyoya said. "We used me to lure to lure the Dopant out so I can fight and finished it."

"And how can you do that?" Naga asked.

"Simple fight fire with fire, the only way to stop Gaia Memories is with Gaia Memories, I need my stuff back." Kyoya said.

"Absolutely not!" Naga exclaimed. "You just expect us to just hand them back over to you!?"

"I know what I'm saying is impossible! Especially since you don't trust me yet! But I'm the best shot of stopping that Dopant, so let me earn that trust by proving myself." Kyoya requested.

Naga grit her teeth before looking at Salamandinay.

"Princess surely you can't be suggesting that be hand him back his items, his dangerous." Naga said.

Salamadinay was in deep thought about it. After a few seconds Salamandinaylooks at Kyoya.

"Tell me this Kyoya can you truly defeat that Dopant?" She asked.

"Yes I know can." Kyoya nodded. "I just need you to trust me."

Salamadinay soon made up her mind about it.


(Next day, at night soon to be dawned)

Kyoya was lying on his bad with his blanket completely covering him. The Dopant come out of the shadows to finished his job, before forming a long sword in his hands, and slash him through his blanket.

The Dopant then notice there was no blood and grabs the blankets and removes it, and saw it wasn't Kyoya but a pillow.

"Oh I'm sorry." The Dopant looks and saw Eternal in the other side of the room coming out of the shadows with his cloak cover his body to blend it. "Were you expecting me to be on that?"

The Dopant quickly charges at Eternal to slash him, but Eternal parried it with his arm and counter punches with his other pushing it back, and followed with side kick sending the Dopant through the window.

The Dopant made a crush land on an edge roof, before landing on its feet to the next; it looks up to see Eternal flying down at with his Eternal Edge.

Eternal brought out his Metal Memory.

"METAL!"

Eternal inserts the Memory onto the Eternal Edge, and it transformed into its katana form, before he landed Eternal was about to slash the Dopant but it quickly blocks it with his sword, making sparks fly.

Eternal was about to slash him again, but the Dopant quickly blocks that too, and pushed it back, and then jumps away, before dispersing his sword, and creating three throwing daggers on each hand and throws them at Eternal, but Eternal quickly blocks the daggers.

Eternal then brought a yellow Gaia Memory with the letter 'N' before pressing the button.

"NASCA!"

Eternal insert it into his Maximum Drive slot and pressed on it.

"NASCA: MAXIMUM DRIVE!"

Eternal then charges at the Dopant so fast he was a blur, and slash at the Dopant everywhere on its body, and soon kicks it on the chest sending flying to the ground, and Eternal soon jumped down a few feet from it.

The Dopant soon got back on his feet.

"You should surrender well you have the chance." Eternal told the Dopant.

"And why would I do that?" The Dopant asked in a female voice, which slightly surprised him, before getting back on truck.

"Because…" Eternal started before seeing the sun was beginning to rise. "Of that and…" 4 male DRAGONS soon lands near and surrounds them. "…them."

The Dopant chuckles of that.

"I don't think so, considering we're at my element here!" The Dopant then dives her fist into one of the DRAGON's shadow and was absorbing energy out of it, and soon pulled it out which is now a giant sized shadow material arm about the same size of the DRAGONs, and soon punches Eternal, Eternal blocks it, but was sent flying crushing into a wall.

The Dopant assassin grabs one of the DRAGONs with her giant arm, and bashed it into another one before slamming it to the ground on its head, and soon punches one of them in the face knocking it out on the ground.

One of the DRAGON's charges at her, but she grabs the DRAGON on the head stopping it, and soon slams it the ground and was about to do it again, but Eternal slashes her giant arm off.

The Dopant's arm return to normal, but was mending it meaning the attack took a hit on her. Eternal then pointed his Eternal Edge on her neck.

"How did you…?" The Dopant growled at him.

"It was thanks to this little Memory." Eternal brought out his Metal Memory.


(Flashback, being punch)

As Eternal was being sent flying and saw he was about to hit the wall, he soon brought his Metal Memory and inserts into his Maximum Drive slot.

"METAL: MAXIMUM DRIVE!"

Eternal's armor hardens before crushing into the wall, and slowly walks off it.

Apparently the Metal Memory can't not only change the shape or form of his Eternal Edge into bladed or blunt weapons, but can affect his armor by changing harder than metal.

(End Flash back)


"Now about your surrender now or do I have to destroy your Gaia Memory first? Your choice." Eternal told her, the Dopant chuckles.

"You forget about the third option." The Dopant stated before sinking into her shadow, Eternal tries to grab her but was too late.

"Don't worry," The Dopant said her voice was everywhere that had a shadow. "We'll meet again soon."

"Damn…" Eternal mutters.


(Later)

After Dr. Gecko was tending to the wounded DRAGONs, Kyoya was with Salamandinay, Naga, and Kaname.

"I guess I should hand these back now." Kyoya handed his Driver and Eternal Memory to them, Salamandinay pushed his hands.

"Keep them, you need them to defend yourself." Salamandinay told him.

"Thank you, Sala-mand-inay-san." Kyoya said still having a little trouble pronouncing it right.

Naga folded her arms.

"So much of you defeating that creature." Naga said.

"If you something to say, say it." Kyoya said.

"Well then I will, you fighting style, is sloppy, you're inexperienced, and you let the enemy get away, not to mention you let four of my brethren got injured." Naga told him.

"I did the best I could alright! I didn't know the Dopant can escape in its own shadow or get stronger by absorbing energy out of a shadow!" Kyoya exclaimed. "I'm sorry they got hurt I'm really am, but at least their alive, and where were you when I was fighting for my life?!"

"Why you?!" Naga growled. Salamandinay got between them.

"That's enough!" Salamandinay snapped at them making stop. "Now's not the time to be fighting against each other, we should be focusing with the task at hand, do I make myself clear?"

"Y-Yes princess Salamandinay." Naga bowed her head.

"Good, now then Kyoya did you learn anything with your battle against the Dopant?" Salamandinay asked.

"Well besides traveling in shadows yes I have." Kyoya stated. "The Dopant can most likely draw power with by night and by shadows meaning that her only advantage is through darkness at night, so she most likely to be back at night again, because she can't risk attacking in broad day light."

"So what we're just supposed to wait another night for her to come out?" Naga questions that idea.

"She doesn't have a choice, only through at night or being in darkness she has the advantage." Kyoya said.

"I may have to agree." Kaname said making Naga a little surprised. "She won't come out during the day because she'll be a weaken state at that time."

"It is settled then." Salamandinay said. "We have time until night; we should plan another trap before then."

They agree to what she suggested.


(With the Dopant)

The Dopant has escaped into the forest, resting itself onto a tree, before removing her Gaia Memory from her left hand, changing into her human form with her Foundation X uniform.

Even though she escapes she failed to kill Kyoya, meaning she failed Jin Kazu, and he doesn't tolerate failure to well. She needs to come up with a plan quickly, thinking of something, and then remembers her fight with Eternal, when he saved the DRAGON from her of killing it, which made have an idea for a plan but in the same time a gamble as well.


(Back to Kyoya)

"Ah man this is the life…" Kyoya mutters as he was relaxing in a nice warm bath in the castle. Kyoya kind of felt a little blessed by this after not having a warm bath for a while. "I just sure hope that no one won't sneak in here."

Then out of nowhere a loud explosion as heard outside of the castle.

"Really? Man and just when I was really enjoying this." Kyoya sighed as he got out of the bath and put on his clothes and hurried outside.


(Outside)

Kyoya was now at the courtyard, and saw smoke coming from the city meaning there was a fire, and then saw Kaname and heads towards her.

"What happen?" Kyoya asked.

"I don't know that explosion just come out of nowhere." She said.

Kyoya decided to check that explosion, and then brought out his Lost Driver and Eternal Memory; he puts on the Driver and pressed the button of his Eternal Memory.

"ETERNAL!"

Kaname saw what he was doing.

"Wait what are you doing?" Kaname asked.

"I'm not just going to stand by and do nothing, while there's trouble! Henshin!" Kyoya inserted the Memory into his Driver.

"ETERNAL!"

Kyoya soon transformed into Eternal, and brought out his Stag Phone and inserted a code for his EternalGarry.

Soon the EternalGarry drives nearby to Eternal and soon opens for his EternalBoilder and got on the bike.

The EternalBoilder's bike side inserts to the big ring on the Garry, and detaches the bike. The ring soon rotates to the red part, and then the two parts come together, and soon pushed forward revealing the part, it has turbine jets with wings the unfolded, and the front wheel turns sideways. This was EternalTurbuler.

The EternalTurbuler hovers off the ground, Kaname tries to convince him to stop.

"Wait! Salamandinay-sama, and the council given you strict orders not to leave the palace-!"

Not listening, Eternal soon fly's to where the smoke is.

"Grounds…" Kaname mutters. "Oh dear if the council gets word of this…"

"Don't worry," She looks and saw Salamandinay and Naga coming to her. "We can talk about punishment later right now we need to chase after him."

Kaname and Naga nodded before they and the dragon princess unfolded their wings and took flight after Eternal.


As a burning home was set on fire, a young woman was helping another one out of her burning home.

As they were now out, the other young woman was about to ran back inside, but her rescuer stops her.

"Let me go! My daughter is still in there!"

They soon heard an engine sound and saw Eternal landed his jet bike and soon got off it, and looks at the two women.

"What happen?!" Eternal asked.

"I-I don't know everything happen so fast…my daughter is still inside she's on the second floor!"

Eternal quickly heads inside the burning house to rescue the child.

"Look its Salamandinay-sama!" One of them pointed, before Salamadinay and her escorts landed.

"Did you see someone in white armor?" Salamandinay asked one of them nodded then pointed to the burning building.

"He went inside to rescue her daughter."

'He's that willing to save someone he didn't know about?' Salamandinaythought as she looks at the burning building, wondering why he would go so far.

Then out of nowhere another explosion accrued inside.

"Kasumi!" The mother cried out.

As another explosion had happen, Eternal jumps out through a window with his cloak covering him and landed on his feet.

They only look at him, until he opens his cloak revealing a young girl in his arms, a little injured but was alive. The mother broken in tears and runs to them.

"KASUMI!" Eternal handed her daughter into her arms, which she holds for in happiness.

"Don't worry she may be injured, but she's still alive." Eternal told her.

"Thank you…thank you…"

"Don't worry about it." Eternal said before facing towards the building and then brought out a white Memory with the letter 'W' and pressed the button.

"WEATHER!"

Eternal soon inserts it into his Maximum Drive slot

"WEATHER: MAXIMUM DRIVE!"

Eternal then summons a dark cloud as big as the building, and then made a rain that was a waterfall, putting out the fire.

Eternal's Stag Phone started ringing, and soon checks and saw a location for a Dopant nearby in a different area, Eternal then got back on his bike and soon takes off.

"And there he goes again." Naga said. "We should have him punished for this."

"I don't think that's necessary, he did save one of our people's children." Salamandinay said before unfolding her wings. "But we can't let him go alone either; we still need to observe him."

Naga and Kaname nodded before they and Salamadinay took flight again following Eternal.


Eternal soon lands his bike, to where the Dopant is, and got off his bike. Eternal looks at the map in his Stag Phone and saw it was in front of him, and saw the ruins of a warehouse, and went inside.

Eternal looks around, inside was dark a good place for his Dopant assassin, to hide.

"You sure know how to keep someone waiting." Eternal looks and saw someone in a Foundation X uniform; he quickly figured out that she was his Dopant Assassin.

"Sorry I didn't mean to be late." Eternal said. "I thought you're only going to be after me only at night, where you'll be at your strongest."

"I would but my leader doesn't like failure in the Foundation." She said.

"You mean Jin Kazu, or Embryo? I know about him and Aura." Eternal told her. "Just what is their plan with Aura?!"

The Dopant assassin just chuckles.

"What you think I would just tell you? Even if I would you won't be-."

"Able to stop it?" Eternal finished for her. "Trust me the last guy they sent said the same thing, before he blows himself up. I may not know what those two are planning, but I'll stop them and free Aura. You guys in Foundation X just keep sending more of your troops after me, I'll defeat them no matter how many they sent, just like how I'm going to beat you."

"Well you would, if I hadn't found your weakness." She stated before bringing her Gaia Memory with the letter 'S' on it.

"SHADOW!"

She soon inserts her Memory, and soon transformed into the Shadow Dopant, and then dives her hand onto her shadow. Eternal pulled out his Eternal Edge ready and charges at the Shadow Dopant.

The Shadow Dopant soon pulls someone out; making Eternal stops, seeing the Dopant has a tied up hostage in her hands holding a knife at her neck.

"You coward…!" Eternal growls as he tightens his hand on his Eternal Edge.

"I know it. You see these creatures as people even the males of their race." The Shadow Dopant said.

"That's because they are! Despite what they look like now, they still have human hearts, the same as I do!" Eternal said.

"So naïve…" The Shadow Dopant stated. "You're just like all the other Kamen Riders, always protecting the weak, saving the innocent, which is the weakness you all possessed. Katsumi Daido would have just killed me along with the hostage."

"Well I have you know I'll never become like Katsumi Daido!" Eternal told the Dopant, he may like Eternal but not Katsumi Daido his character. "Well you think it's our weakness, it can also be our strength."

"Well that's too bad because your compassion for others is going to be your downfall." The Shadow Dopant brought the knife closer to her hostage's neck. "Now remove the Memory and Driver."

Eternal growls before noticing something behind the Dopant, he then slowly reach for his Driver, and was about to pull out his Memory…

"AH!" A loud roar which was almost a sonic like wave was aim at the Dopant, the Shadow Dopant covered her ears to try to block it out but had release her hostage in the process.

Eternal then pushed the hostage away from them and spin kick the Dopant sending it flying a good feet before landing on its back.

As the Dopant come up it saw Salamandinay landed near Eternal well Naga and Kaname tended to the hostage.

"But how…?" The Shadow Dopant mutters.


(Before the scream)

Eternal had saw Salamandinay hiding nearby behind the Shadow Dopant, and nodded to him indicating for him to trust her, and Eternal nodded back saying he does.

As Eternal was pretending to remove his Memory, Salamandinay fly's above the Dopant and soon sends a scream loud enough to temporary stun her.


(Back to present)

"Well having allies to back you up can really be helpful." Eternal stated.

"You mean you both trusted each other for a gamble?! Well you two were complete strangers to one of another?!" The Shadow Dopant exclaimed.

"Well it is true that Kyoya is a complete stranger to us, he proves more than enough that he's on our side." Salamandinay stated.

The Shadow Dopant growled in angry before creating twin swords.

"Get her out of here. I got this." Eternal told them. They listen to him and got the hostage out to safety.

The Shadow Dopant charges at Eternal and was about to slash him with one of her swords, Eternal blocks it with his knife and saw she was about to slash with her other sword and quickly stops it by catching her forearm, and kicks the Dopant followed with a two slashes.

The Shadow Dopant discards the twin swords and then created a chain and throws at Eternal, Eternal was about to parried it with his Edge but the chain tied onto his forearm. The Shadow Dopants then pulls her chain pulling Eternal up in the air, and smashes him onto the ground and soon throws him a ragdoll onto the walls, and ceilings.

Just as the Shadow Dopant was about to throw on the ground, Eternal brought out his Trigger Memory and inserts into his Eternal Edge.

"TRIGGER!"

Just as Eternal was smashed into the ground there was a cloud of smoke. Eternal fan it away with his cape, and was seen armed with his Eternal Edge transformed into a Gatling gun which resembles the GX-05 Cerberus that Kamen Rider G3-X uses.

Eternal then fires his weapon, making the Shadow Dopant stumbling back, and let's go of her chain, freeing Eternal's arm. As the Shadow Dopant was under fire being pushed back, it quickly summons a wall made of shadow shielding her.

Eternal quickly changes his weapon back into its knife form before putting it away, and then brought out an aqua-green Gaia Memory with the letter 'U' before pressing the button.

"UNICRON!"

Eternal then inserts into his Maximum Drive slot.

"UNICRON: MAXIMUM DRIVE!"

Lightning covered Eternal's right fist, he soon jumps towards the wall and punches it shattering it to pieces, and did a bicycle kick onto the Dopant before landed on his feet.

Eternal then brought his knife and his Metal Memory, and inserts it into his knife.

"METAL!"

The Eternal Edge transformed into a long sword with small engine on the bottom, and a handle and a long trigger, it resembles the Red Queen from the Devil May Cry series.

Eternal charges at the Dopant, the Shadow Dopant saw he was going to attack with his sword, it quickly created a shield and blocks his attacks. Eternal twists the handle making the sword revive up like a motorcycle engine, making the sword vibrate to break and speed up to break through its shield, and slashes the Dopant at the process.

Eternal then brought out his Nasca and a red Memory with the letter 'A', he then inserts the Nasca onto the Maximum Drive slot on his belt, and inserts the other onto the his Eternal Edge Red Queen form.

"ACCEL!"

"NASCA!"

"MAXIMUM DRIVE!"

Eternal's sword's engine started reviving up faster making it glowed red, and soon ready his sword.

"Now…let's go for a ride!" Eternal said borrowing the catchphrase of KR Drive before moving as a blur at the Dopant.

Eternal then slashes the Shadow Dopant too fast for normal person to see, and kept going almost reaching like over 100 sword slashes, until landed a spin slash, turning his back against the Dopant as it was a little shaky and electric shocks appeared some areas around her body.

"Despair is your…goal" Eternal said another catchphrase from KR Accel.

The Shadow Dopant exploded, leaving only the human form as she falls to the ground, before her Gaia Memory ejected out of her and shattered into pieces.

Eternal walks above and stomps on her arm.

"Now I want answers, Jin Kazu and Embryo start talking." Eternal demanded.

The Foundation X member just laughs a little.

"There's no point getting answers out of me…" She said making Eternal confused on what she mean. "…I'm already dead…"

One of her eyes turned fully sideways to the white area, as her body completely limps on the floor, making Eternal a little surprised before checking for a pulse, and there was no heartbeat meaning she is now dead.

"Damn…" Eternal mutters.


(Back at the castle)

After the battle Kyoya had explained to Salamandinay about what happen with the Foundation X assassin.

"And after I check her for heartbeat she was dead." Kyoya told her. "I'm not sure how but Jin Kazu must have use some sort of bionic eye to see her every move, but to also kill her if she failed."

"To think he would do that to his own follower." Salamandinay said if she ever meet Jin Kazu she gladly take his head along with Embryo.

"And now we don't have anything to go on to what they have planned." Kyoya said.

"Actually we don't have to capture anyone." She told him. Kyoya blinked.

"What do you mean about that?" Kyoya asked.

"We actually have a spy in the world of MANA, who's still looking for Aura's location, she'll report back when she finds anything." Salamandinay told him.

"Really?! How come you didn't tell me?" Kyoya asked

"Well you didn't ask for one thing, and don't forget the people here don't completely trust you yet." She said.

"Okay good point there." Kyoya said.

"But I'm happy to announce to the council had decided to trust you." She told him.

"Really?" Kyoya asked.

"Yes apparently your selfless actions on saving three of our people, not to mention saving one of our children have convinced them, to put their trust in you." Salamandinay said.

"Well I'm happy to hear that, but…" Kyoya started making Salamandinay blinked. "I can't fully join with you just yet."

"Why not?" She asked.

"Well you said that Embryo created a society on the other Earth, correct?" Kyoya asked.

"That's correct." She nodded.

"Well I like to see it first before I decided to join with you." Kyoya said.

"Why would you want to do that?" Salamandinay asked.

"You said that your people are at war against an island called Arzenal, and that the people don't know it yet. But to retake Aura that means destroying the island and everyone on it, and then go into a battle against Embryo which will result casualties with innocent people." Kyoya said.

"I don't like the idea but sadly I would do whatever it takes to rescue Aura, even if that means all that you said." Salamandinay told him with strong determination.

"I know you would, but until I see this World of MANA and learn about how it is there, then I'll decide if I want to help you in your battle." Kyoya said.

"Is that truly your wish?" Salamandinay asked. Kyoya nodded and she saw the determination in his eyes. "Alright I'll talk with the council to approve of you're request. But the only way to get there is through the singularities."

"Actually I have a different way to travel between worlds." Kyoya stated.

Making the DRAGON princess blink in curiosity and confusion what he means, until he explained on how he'll do it.


(Next day)

The EternalGarry is opened at the courtyard of the castle. Kyoya explained with his Garry and with the Gaia Memory Zone together is able to travel between worlds. He knows this because it was in the instructions Decade gave him.

"This is a mistake letting him go." Naga said with her arms folded. "What if he is a spy for Embryo and is just going to the other Earth to just inform him."

"There's nothing we can do about it. The princess and the council agreed to his request, and I don't think he is a spy considering all he done so far." Kaname stated.

"Well I still don't trust him." Naga said, making Kaname sighed.

Kyoya was reading his instructions of the steps for dimension travel with his gear, before someone come up behind him and breath onto his ear.

"I'll miss you Yagami-san…" Kyoya shivered as he recognized that voice is Dr. Gecko, which made him jump away from her. "I'm sure am going to miss that male body of yours."

"Yeah well I won't be missing you though." Kyoya told her before going onto his bike.

"Kyoya," He looks and saw Salamandinay. "Are you really sure about this?"

"I'm sorry to up and leave like this, but I need to see everything about the other Earth with my own eyes." Kyoya told her. "I promise when I'm done I'll be back."

"Alright," Salamandinay nodded. "Just be prepared for anything."

"Don't worry, I will." Kyoya said before the EternalGarry's hatches closed.

"Alright, step one;" Kyoya brought out his Phone and a white Memory with the letter 'Z'. "Insert Zone Memory into Stag Phone."

Kyoya inserts the Zone Memory into the Stag Phone.

"ZONE: MAXIMUM DRIVE!"

"Step two: insert Stag Phone onto the bike and then type in the code." Kyoya followed the steps.

Kyoya then types in the code, and the EternalGarry engines roared as its eye parts light up, and the body soon started to glow. The Garry then drives forward really fast until a portal rifts opened.

"And Step three! Hang on to dear life!" Kyoya shouted before the EternalGarry travels into it.


As the EternalGarry was traveling through the rift between worlds, Kyoya saw lots of images, of people in armor suits; he recognized them as Kamen Riders of other seasons.

He saw Hibiki with a teenage girl and two other Oni Riders Ibuki and Todoroki fighting against a giant black lizard with white and red bone armor.

Agito fighting against a Panther Lord, well protecting three high school girls and another boy.

Ryuki riding on his Ride Shooter.

And saw many more.

Kyoya then saw a light at the end, when he got closer it gotten brighter and brighter until…


In the middle of a forest electricity was appearing out of nowhere until a portal opened up, and coming out is the EternalGarry which soon hit the brakes stopping, as the portal closed.

The Garry soon opens up, and Kyoya quickly got off his bike and off the Garry to the ground on all fours.

Kyoya looks a little sick as he tried to stand on his feet until putting his hand on a nearby tree, and soon made vomiting sounds. After he was done Kyoya brought out his instructions, and saw the word warning, and turned to it.

"Warning…dimension travel with the Garry would cause side effects that cause, motions sickness, headaches, and dizziness…" Kyoya mutters before sighing. "Good one Kyoya…next time read the instructions more fully…"

Kyoya soon shook it off to straighten himself, and then notice something that caught his eye, and it sure was tall.

"Well I should be happy that it works." Kyoya mutters as he was looking at another version of the Tower of Aura, only it was not damage or in ruins, it look like it was brand new.

Kyoya can't help but wonder what awaits him in this brand new world.
