3: An Old Friend
Irma's Street
Irma stood ready to launch water at whichever Ghoul came at her first. All 9 of then stood fanned out before her armed with their poles ready when suddenly all of them and Irma were distracted by a lion's roar that came from above. They all looked up and flying down from the skies was a large black-bodies lion with a green back and chameleon head and tongue for a tail, gold claws and mane around the head. The underside of the torso had a crimson read buffalo head on it, the left side had a pale blue dolphin head and fin acting like a wing while the right side had a orange falcon head and wing. It rammed through the Ghouls knocking them back before flying back up and giving another roar.
"Seems Haruto was right to have you come Chimera" Kouske called out as he ran onto the road from a turning nearby looking down to see what had happened. Irma looked round at him wondering what was going on.
"Yes Kouske, seems it is time again" The Chimera spoke in a deep rough voice that made Irma jump a little.
"Right let's do this then" Kouske smiled as he placed on a black framed square ring with a gold lion face in it with large green eyes on his left hand. "Come, Chimera!" He then called as Chimera flew at him turning into gold energy and went into the belt buckle before gold energy went over it then when it faded the buckle had moved forwards with a large black backing along with a short pillar in each side. "Henshin!" He then called out before pressing into the left pillar and twisting it a quarter turn anti-clockwise causing the silver parts of his belt to swing open left and rings revealing a gold lion face inside and the markings of a falcon, chameleon, buffalo and a dolphin on the inside of the panels that opened.
"Set...Open..L-I-O-N...Lion!" His belt called out as it launched a large octagonal gold series of rings with the middle matching the marking on his ring fly out and get bigger than him before flying back over him changing his appearance to a black outfit with gold amour on his lower legs and fore arms, his right shoulder had a black shoulder pad with gold trim, while his left had a gold lion head that had its mane form gold amour on his chest, that changed to black on his right side. His helmet was gold with large green eyes like the ring on his left hand, with both hands being in white gloves.
Irma looked at the guy a little stunned by the person that had appeared before her while the Ghouls slowly got back up. "Why exactly are you?" She asked Kouske.
"I'm Kouske Nitoh. Kamen Rider Beast" He introduced himself to her before turning to look at the Ghouls and a small gold ring appeared before his bent and he then pulled out a sword that had a black handle with a gold base, there was also a gold lion head on one side that had a slot in the mouth. On the opposite side of the handle to that was a black wheel, then on 1 side between them was a dark silver box with a single red dot in it. "Now it's lunchtime" he exclaimed towards the Ghouls.
"Actually it is after 5" Irma informed him, a little sheepishly as she personally didn't want to cause an argument.
"Ahh, fine then, it's dinner time" He changed it to before charging at the Ghouls who responded by charging back at him.
Irma stood watch as Kouske used a mix of kicks and sword strikes to fight back, blocking using the armour on his arms and then attacking back. After a few moments he was clearly overpowering the Ghouls and then placed a black hexagonal ring on his right hand with a orange falcon head marked inside it and then pressed it into the right pillar on his belt.
"Falco" It called out before he removed his ring and held that arm out to the side as a orange version of the ring that he used to transform appeared next to it. "Go...Fa-Fa-Fa-Falco" It then chanted as the ring passed over him leaving a orange flacon head on his right shoulder and a cape under it that came down just past the elbow. He then leaped up into the air as a orange vortex appeared around his legs and he flew past the Ghouls a few times striking them as he went past taking 4 of them down in a small explosion leaving a small gold energy rings behind that flew up to him and went into his belt.
"Now let's finish this" He called to them a little exited as he tossed his sword from the right hand to the left and used his right hand to spin the wheel on it before pressing in the right hand ring into the slot on it.
"Five" The sword called out in the same voice as his belt as the dots stopped on 5 red dots and he removed the ring. "Falco...Sabre Strike!" It then called as a larger version of the orange ring appeared before him while he took the sword back in his right hand and then struck the ring with it shattering it creating 5 orange energy flacons to fly forwards to the remaining ghouls ramming into them causing them to explode and the 5 gold rings left behind also went into his belt.
"Now then" He spoke as he turned around looking at Irma who had now been watching a little stunned. "You look like who was described to me."
"Woh, hold on" Irma jumped in at his comments. "Who has described me?" She asked him looking around and a little relived that Chris had stayed hidden.
"Haruto" Kouske replied to which Irma looked a little more surprised. "You must be one of the girls he helped a few months ago right?" He then asked.
"Yes I was, but what is this about?" She demanded to know.
"Not the place to explain" he told her as his Griffon flew up next to him and seemed to communicate something to him. "Can you come with me, hopefully Haruto and Mayu have found your friends." He said to her as he offered her his free hand.
"Ok, but what is going on, and who is Mayu?" She demanded again as she took his hand for him to then quickly pull her in close as the orange vortex surrounded both of their legs and they flew up into the air towards the main part of the city.
Olson House
The Ghouls took their charge at both of the boys while Matt released a green energy beam from his mask that knocked 1 back a few feet and to the ground while Sam flicked to another page in his book quickly and read out the spell which made 2 Ghouls that were running alongside each other to have the arm that was next to the other one swing out and whack the other causing them both to stop and then start fighting with the other one.
"That was a good one, what exactly was it?" Matt asked between shooting more beams at the remaining Ghouls coming at them.
"I thought it was a gravity reduction spell" Sam replied back with a little bit of a surprise as to what he saw happen before repeating the spell but pronounced a word of the language a little differently this time causing one of the Ghouls to fly up into the air and seemingly keep going up. "Ok that was it" He joked.
"Once again your ability to do the spells wrong actually gave you a better spell you don't know how to do again" Matt then joked as he shot down the last one and all of them exploded , including the ones fighting each other as they did a power strike to the other.
They both stood looking around for a moment in silence for it to be broken by the sound of a phone ringing inside the garage. Matt quickly opened it up and next to Sam's bag there was a black flip screen phone. Sam went over and answered it.
"Hello...Me and Matt were too...What!?...We are coming to you now" He then closed it finishing the call. "Sis was attacked by the same things and there is something she wants us to see in the west of the park."
"If she was...you think?" Matt asked.
"I think so too, but as I haven't had Taranee's voice yelling in my head I don't know about the others" Sam replied as they both went back outside and closed the garage door again with him tucking his phone into a gap in the armour.
"We best see what your sister has found then and keep an eye and ear out for the rest" Matt spoke as his wings stretched out to be longer then his arms before flapping them and taking flight up into the air. Sam's armour had the fins have some rainbow energy lines pass over them before they disconnected into smaller pieces and connected with rainbow-coloured energy that took on a reptilian style of wing and he few up after Matt and followed him off over the houses towards the park.
Main Heatherfield Park
Sarah closed her phone up as she stood on top of a hill overlooking a small performance area in the park. She ran down into the area completely stunned by what she was seeing there.
"Who or what could do something like this?" She asked herself before seeing a couple of shadows approaching in the sky and she smiled.
Small Park Near Heatherfield Museum
Taranee let off another fireball at a Ghoul which just bounced off its body as it came towards her for it to them be gripped by the blades that Gali had and tossed back into a pile with a few others.
"I don't remember them being this hard to put down" Taranee commented a little short of breath.
"Did you fight them outside of guardian form?" Gali asked her before using the energy whip she had from the other arm to try and keep them to stay back, she was a little worn too from the fight.
"No I didn't but still it was under original guardian powers not the new power level, so just as I am now I have nearly the same level power I use to have" Taranee replied stumbling back a little. "But not the stamina for this much magic use."
Gali gave off a little sigh as she took some deep breaths as the Ghouls prepared to charge them again only for a volley of silver bullets to fly in from their right and knock them over a little. Both girls looked round to where they came from and Mayu stood only a short distance away holding in her right hand a large silver framed gun with a closed black fist on the top of it with red outlines on it.
"Look we can explain everything you are seeing, kinda" Taranee embarrassingly spoke to Mayu without knowing who she was. "But right now I would recommend you run."
"That won't be necessary, as a girl with magic you should know this" Mayu spoke holding up the ring Haruto gave her.
"The infinity ring?" Taranee asked while Gali kept on guard as the Ghouls stood back up. "Why do you have that, it belongs to Haruto."
"He gave it to me to help find a particular red-headed girl in this city" Mayu explained before putting that ring in her pocket and placed on a ring on her right hand that matched her buckle and then passed the gun to her left hand, she then held the ring on her right hand over her buckle.
"Driver On...Now!" it spoke as a driver same as the one the man in white had and Will hand appeared on her. She then pulled out a ring identical to the one Will used to Henshin but with a orange stone inside. She placed it on her left hand and took the gun back in her right before flicking the leavers on her driver to left hand mode.
"Henshin!" She called out before activating the ring.
"Change...Now!" Her driver called as a orange version of the spell ring that Will had used for her Henshin appeared to Mayu's left and passed over her placing her in the same outfit that Will had ended up in but all the pink replaced with orange.
The Ghouls swung their pole weapons round before charging at Mayu who responded with a few more shots from her gun knocking a couple of them down to the ground and then using the large claw as a Melee weapon to strike back as she also used kicks to fight back.
"Red-head...She means Will" Taranee thought out loud while speaking to Gali "You have any idea why?"
"You met this Haruto person so I wouldn't know" Gali winked back to Taranee before charging in at the couple of Ghouls that Mayu had taken down with shooting as they got back up only to then find themselves trapped in the pincers of Gali's weapon as she then lifted them off the ground.
"So you want to explain this?" Taranee then yelled at Mayu as she pulled up some energy to launch another fireball at one of the Ghouls Gali was holding, hitting in right in the back causing it to finally explode.
"I am Mayu Inamori, Kamen Rider Mage" She introduced herself as she knocked a few of the ones she was fighting back with a hard strike from the claw. "As for why I am here, Let me wrap this up first." She then pressed the thumb on the hand on her gun opening it up.
"Come On, Shoot, Shake Hands!" It started to chant out and she then taped her left hand to it causing the ring on the claw part to flash. "Mage...Shooting Strike!" it then called out as orange energy started to form in the barrel. She kicked back the last few Ghouls so they all were in a pile before aiming the gun at them and then firing a orange energy beam that engulfed them and caused them all to explode. Gali meanwhile threw the last one she had into the air and then summoned 2 small jets of water that formed a helix pattern around her with the tips of those jets then surrounded the ends of her claws that were shut. As the Ghoul fell back down from the throw up Gali spun around swing the claws over her head striking the Ghoul with the water causing it to explode over her.
"Ok now that is over want to explain?" Taranee asked only to then find before Mayu had time to answer she saw someone running up to them.
"Taranee, Gali!" The voice called out causing both of them to smile as it was Cornelia. "Hay are you both all right?" She then asked as they all grouped up.
"We were in a bit of a problem from some Ghouls until Mayu here saved us" Taranee explained to Cornelia.
"Thought so, I overheard some police radios that strange rock monsters appeared at the museum so I had Blunk sniff you out once I got there, it is crawling with cops now" Cornelia explained as next to them Blunk appeared.
"Blunk sniff out and save the day again" He said proudly and was given a little pat on the head by Taranee as a thank you.
"What happened to your shopping then?" Gali asked a question she possibly didn't want an answer to.
"Well strangely it was going well before Ghouls showed up at the mall, but managed to lose them" Cornelia happily informed them with a smug look on her face.
"Only you would know the best way to get around in a mall" Taranee joked before looking at Mayu. "Now what is going on?"
"Best thing to do will be to take you to Haruto" She replied as she switched her right hand ring to a spell ring with a purple inside rather than orange with silver rings inside of it and what looked like a stick figure being pulled through. "Better get close." She told them all to which after giving a little look at each other the rest of them all stood close to Mayu as they could before she flight the driver back to right hand mode and pressed her right hand to it.
"Teleport...Now!" He driver spoke before a white energy warped over them and they all disappeared.
Heatherfield Restaurant Area
The man in white slowly turned around with Will and the Ghouls turning a moment later. Behind them just before another ally out of the area stood Haruto holding a gun like the one Mayu had but with gold lines around the hand rather than red.
"Fueki!" Haruto yelled a bit annoyed at him as the creatures that he had summoned from his rings snuck in behind them and went over to Hay Lin and started attacking her chains. "Back off from her!"
"Haruto Soma" The man in white replied. "What are you doing here? You can't have known"
"I came to see some friends, which I won't let you harm" Haruto was clearly annoyed with him. From where they huddled Suzan and Deal were confused as to what was going on as they both had a discussion in Japanese, while Hay Lin rolled over to look and her eyes opened wide seeing Haruto standing there. Meanwhile like Mayu, Haruto passed his gun to his left hand as he placed on a ring on his right hand that matched his belt and one on his left that was a silver ring that had a yellow square on it with silver marking like glasses on it.
"Give me the stone" Fueki demanded holding out his open left hand.
"I promised Koyomi to keep it away from those who would misuse it, and that includes you" Haruto replied as he pressed his right hand to his buckle.
"Driver On...Please!" It spoke allowing a WizarDriver to form from his buckle, but unlike the ones Fueki, Will and Mayu had his was mostly light and dark silver all over with gold around the black hand.
"If you will not give it to me freely, I will take it from you" Fueki informed Haruto as all the Ghouls in the area surrounded him leaving Suzan and Dean to finally get out of the area, afraid for Will's safety, even tho she didn't seem to be herself while the PlaMonsters that Haruto had summoned finished breaking the chains on Hay Lin, letting her get up and move behind some overturned tables to hide and watch.
"No Fueki, I won't let you do it again" Haruto seemed rather angry. "Koyomi does what to be back with you, but on the other side." He told Fueki but clearly he wasn't listening. "I will stop you, Henshin!" He then called out as she flicked his driver to left hand mode and pressed his left hand to it.
"Land...Please!" It called out as Haruto held his left hand now before him creating a yellow spell ring around him that passed up over him what it chanted out "Dododo, Dododon! Don, Dododon!", changing him to now wearing a black outfit with a long tailcoat. Yellow armour on his chest with silver rim along it and silver edged shoulder pads. His face was now covered in a silver helmet with a yellow square faceplate, with silver marking to make it match the ring. To He also had a extinction of his belt hanging on his left with a selection of rings stored on it. He took a firm grip on his gun in his right hand as he pulls the barrel upwards and then a blade flicked out over the top turning it into a sword.
"Get him" Fueki orders to which the Ghouls charged in with Will remained standing at his side.
"Now, it's ShowTime" Haruto calmly spoke before swinging his sword around to strike out at the first group of Ghouls to reach him as he the kicked another while swapping his right hand ring over before strike back a few more Ghouls while some positioned themselves together with small purple energy balls forming before their faces and then fired them at Haruto who spun round and switched the driver to right hand mode and used the ring.
"Defend...Please!" It called out as Haruto held his hand before him. The ring he used had a silver dragon holding a shield on it creating a yellow spell ring on the ground before him where he aimed his hand once he took it away from the driver and a large slab of stone rose out of the ring and the orbs fired from the Ghouls impacted into that and exploded sending dust around the area, but a few silver bullets came through it hitting a few ghouls knocking them back and causing them to explode into small rocks.
After a couple more moment Haruto charged though the dust as he switched his weapon back from gun mode to sword mode as he quickly struck a couple of more Ghouls as he spun around and changed the ring on his left hand to a similar ring to the one he had just taken of it, but with a green triangle on it instead of a yellow square. Once he was ready he took his sword in a back-hand grip and changed the driver to left hand mode as he pressed his left hand to it causing a green flash from the ring.
"Hurricane...Please!" His driver called as he aimed his left hand over his head creating a green spell ring that he jumped up and through while the driver chanted Fu-Fu! Fu-Fu-Fu-Fu!" Once he passed though the ring his appearance was only altered to replace all the yellow with green and the shape of the faceplate of the helmet was now a triangle like the ring. A green vortex formed around his legs as he swooped down over the ground striking more Ghouls with his sword as they either tried to shoot him with the energy orbs or strike him with their poles.
Haruto landed on the ground tackling into a Ghoul and sending him back in Fueki who just stood there as the Ghoul then charged back at Haruto while a few more Ghouls came straight at him.
"Fueki, stop this now!" Haruto called to him but only to get no response from him. He then looked at the mage standing next to him. "And what about them?"
"That is Will!" Hay Lin shouted from where she was.
"What!?" Haruto replied a bit surprised as he now got a clear view of who it was he had saved in the area.
"Will, I don't know what exactly happened but she seemed to be hypnotised and going about a Wiseman" Hay Lin explained to Haruto as he placed on a new spell ring on his right hand, one with the dragon being stretched on it. "Is he something to do with this Fueki guy you are talking to?"
"Extend...Please!" Haruto's driver called out as he went to right hand mode on it and activated the ring. Before his right arm a spell ring appeared and he pushed his arm though which made it stretch and flex around in ways a arm normally cant as he used it like a whip as the right hand at the end of the now very long and flexible arms was spun around knocking back the ghouls around him causing them to explode into air vortex's. Fueki used his weapon to block himself and Will from being struck.
"Wiseman is Fueki's name for his phantom form" Haruto told Hay Lin, clearly annoyed by what she had said. "And this isn't the first time he had mind controlled people." Haruto looked over at the mage standing next to Fueki and gritted his teeth as he switched left hand rings as some more Ghouls charged in, placing on a egg shaped blue centred ring and then placed driver to left mode again and activated the ring.
"Water...Please!" It called out as again Haruto held his left hand above his head creating a blue spell ring, he then lowered his hand causing the ring to pass down over him as the driver chanted "Sui-Sui! Sui-Sui!" Once the ring had passed over him and disappeared his appearance had replaced all green with blue and the face plate was now egg shaped. He quickly spun around striking a Ghoul that had charged up behind him and immediately it exploded into water. He then struck back at a couple more that came at him which meant he wasn't looking at Fueki as he signalled for a few Ghouls to go for Hay Lin.
Haruto struck back the couple he was against making them explode into water like the first one he took on in this from when he turned to face Fueki and charged at him only to stop when he heard a scream. He looking over ad 5 Ghouls were heading straight at Hay Lin. From within his helmet Fueki smiled darkly knowing what Haruto's choice would be as he saw him change his right hand ring to one with the dragon looking like it was becoming water drops and then switch the driver back to right hand mode as he charged towards where Hay Lin was.
"Liquid...Please!" The driver called out to which Haruto turned into water and then flew forwards straight at the Ghouls weaving around them as he pushed then back off away from Hay Lin.
"Do you know where the others are?" Haruto asked her as he stood before her while he re-formed and switched his left ring to one with a red circle inside it.
"For Irma and Taranee a definite location, but Cornelia could be at one of many shops" Hay Lin replied. "What is going on here anyway, why has your friend mind controlled Will?"
"Long story short" Haruto told her as he used his sword to knock back the Ghouls again as they tried for Hay Lin again. "Fueki wants to resurrect his dead daughter and to do so he needs power magic users to create a field of magical energy to sacrifice everyone inside it, and the field can be a small beach to an entire city in size."
"But how would he know about us?" She then asked.
"He probably saw you back when you came to Tokyo and did some research on you all before he came back from the dead and decided to use you lot" He told her as he changed his driver again to left side and used the ring he had on his left hand now.
"Flame...Please!" His driver spoke as he then held his left arm out to his left side creating a red energy ring next to it which then passed over him changing the blue to red and the faceplate to a circle while he driver chanted "Hi-Hi Hi-Hi-Hi!" Once it was done he flicked the sword around as he quickly changed the right hand ring over.
The Ghouls charged again with Haruto blocking the strikes from their poles while Hay Lin looked at Will who was standing there like she had no control over what she was doing.
"Will snap out of it!" Hay Lin then shouted only for no reply from her.
"Your friend feels no reason to help you" Fueki laughed a little darkly. "But fear not, you will join her." He then raised his flute weapon again and was about to start to play it when Haruto's sword interrupted him.
"Big...Please!" It spoke as Haruto had opened the hand on it and used the ring that he had placed on his right hand which had a small dragon on it that appeared to be getting bigger. A red energy ring them passed over the sword as Haruto closed the hand on it making the blade become nearly twice as long as Haruto was tall. He then held the sword to his right before swinging it round knocking all the Ghouls back into a pile and it also knocked the flute out of Fueki's hands sending it across the plaza.
"You pest!" Fueki cursed Haruto as he placed a new ring on his right hand, it was purple centred ring with what looked like an explosion on it. he then flicked his driver to set up the right hand mode on it and activated the ring.
"Explosion...Now!" His driver spoke as a white energy orb then formed in his right hand before the then threw it towards Haruto as the sword returned to normal size and he opened the hand again, this time using the ring on his left hand on it.
"Flame...Slash Strike!" It called out as the blade became covered in fire and it started to chant "Hi Hi-Hi!" He then swung the blade so the energy ball slid along the outer side of it and flicked it towards the Ghouls as they struggled to get out of the pile they were in with the orb covered in fire. The impact of the orb on the Ghouls then caused it to explode taking them all out.
"You will give me what I want, and after that you will not interfere any more" Fueki cured Haruto as he went to re-set the driver only for suddenly another voice was heard behind him.
"Buffa! Go, Bu-Bu-Bububu-Buffa!" Fueki turned around and charging right at him and then giving him a tackle was Kouske with a crimson red buffalo head on his right shoulder pad with a matching cape on the arm and gold horns on it. Kouske rammed in with the buffalo head first against Fueki and then kept the charge as he pushed him a few feet back and then flicked the shoulder upwards throwing him back several more into a wall.
"Hay Lin!" Irma's voice called out as she ran in from where Kouske had charged in from only for Will to spin around and grip onto her top with her left hand. "Get on me" She then struggled to spit out, not knowing Will was her attacker.
Then behind Will she was hit by 4 shots as Mayu, Taranee, Gali, Cornelia and Blunk appeared from a white energy that appeared and formed into them. Mayu had her gun up and was the one that shot Will while Taranee, Cornelia and Blunk ran over to Hay Lin who smiled seeing them. Gali charged forwards while Will turned around to see what had struck her while keeping a grip on Irma. Gali hand her left pincer open and gripped Will's right arm half way along her lower arm pulling it down so Irma ended up on her knees.
"Let go of her" Gali angrily spoke out as Will then struck Gali in the face with her claw causing the non-human to stumble a bit but not let go, instead she made the grip tighter which caused Will to release Irma allowing Gali to grab her while releasing Will and carried Gali over to the others while Haruto, Kouske and Mayu all grouped up together in the middle between Fueki as he stood up properly and Will.
"You ok?" Taranee asked Irma as she was put down.
"Yes I will be" She replied as she caught her breath. "Anyone know what is happening, all I know from Kouske, the gold armoured rider is that Ghoul attacks were around."
"We had the same, and Mayu there saved me and Gali" Taranee then replied while pointing out Mayu.
"Then who is other?" Blunk asked looking at Will and Fueki's rider forms.
"And what about Will?" Cornelia asked.
"Will is that rider" Hay Lin sadly spoke looking at where she was. "I got here and she then transformed into that rider. Haruto says something about Fueki using mind control on her."
"But since when could she used rider powers?" Gali asked keeping on guard before them.
"Well we all could activate Haruto's weapons so we may be able to use the rider equipment that they use outright" Taranee commented.
"Blunk want to go now" Blunk moaned as he hid behind the girls.
"Sorry Blunk but we need you to stay, just in case we need a getaway" Cornelia told him.
"So you brought them with you" Fueki commented as he looked at the 3 standing before him. "And the archetype is back, I won't let you stop me again."
"Ahh, you are going down Fueki" Kouske taunted him.
"You won't use anyone like do did to us" Mayu snapped at Fueki.
"You all are nothing" He snarled as he changed his right ring to another purple centred one with a pillar coming out of the ground on it, he then flicked the driver back and forth to re-set the driver to right hand spell mode and used the ring.
"Phantom Rise...Now!" It called out as Fueki held the hand before him and a purple spell ring appeared on the ground and from it a humanoid monster formed. It hand black armoured legs with green outlines while the arms and torso were black with green armour. Silver pointed shoulder pads were there and finally the head was green with a black faceplate with green spikes on it.
"Gremlin!" Kouske commented surprised as to what he saw.
"Not exactly, this new ring lets me summon a copy of any phantom I wish that has been defeated and wasn't eaten by Chimera" Fueki explained. "And even if you defeat this copy, it is just a manifestation of magical energy so even if Chimera eats it, it won't stop me summoning another."
"Looks like we will take you all" Haruto spoke as she switched his left hand ring to a matching red ring with thicker silver marking on it as he also was stealthily passed by his infinity ring by Mayu. "I'll take the new mage, and you both can decide who gets who."
"I will have Fueki" Mayu told Kouske who just nodded while Haruto flicked his driver around so he can use the ring he just put on.
"Flame" It spoke before a dragon's roar was emitted and then spoke the next word in a deeper voice "Dragon!" A large red spell ring formed before Haruto and out flew a large European style dragon made of fire and circled around him while the ring then passed over him covering him in flames before the dragon dived into his back while the driver chanted "Bou-Bou! Bou-Bou-Bou!" Then the flames blew off him revealing now his overcoat was red, the chest armour had a red and silver dragon's head marked on it, he now had large shoulder pads with red circles on them with silver armour around them and his helmet had also gained the thicker silver markings on it that matched the ring. He then placed his sword in the ground and changed his right hand ring back to the connect ring and set the driver to the right mode again.
"Connect...Please!" His driver spoke as next to his right hand a small red magic ring appeared. He took off the ring before reaching into the ring, his hand not appearing on the other side and then pulled out a device that looked like a black right hand with a gold outline holding a silver framed clock inside it that attached to the lower half of his right fore arm. The thumb of the hand looked like a leaver that was pushed into the rest of the hand. The dial was a clear circular plate with a black arrow like a clock hand on the top of it. Inside the clock dial was 4 segments. Going clockwise was red, blue, green then yellow. On the back of his right hand linked by a small bit of hinged silver metal plates was a larger silver metal plate that took up all the back of his hand with a small clear dragon statue and the finger end of the plate.
"Drago Time!" it called out as he pulled it on fully and then took grip of the dial and turned it round anti-clockwise until it stopped after one full turn and called out again. "Set-up!" Haruto then took his sword back out of the ground and faced Will while Mayu prepared herself to fight Fueki and Kouske prepared to fight the summoned Gremlin. The 3 opponents all positioned themselves ready to strike back as everyone else looked on.
Next Time: The 3v3 battle is on
