Day Two (Part 2)
Takatora Takasugi wrapped bandages around his wound on his arm. He had just killed a man to protect himself. He looked in the dead man's backpack and scavenged anything that he could use. Then he moved on and went along the path he was walking on. He took out a picture from his suit. It was a picture of him with his brother, Mitsuzane. "I'll find you," he said. A few hours earlier he had saw him use one of the Sengoku drivers. He was glad that Mitsuzane was alive. He smiled to himself as he thought about Mitsuzane. His brother was the only thing keeping him moving right now.
He blamed himself for getting his brother into this mess. If he didn't fight against the Battle Royale Ace then they both wouldn't have been here. He knew his other political friends were on the island as well. He had gotten them to fight against the act with him. He had to find them before anything could happen to them. He had to get an Sengoku driver, it was the only way to survive on this island.
He came to a stop. He jumped into the bushes and saw his friends. It was Mary, Adam and his wife Evelyn. They were being pushed by a couple of men with guns. "Get down on your knees!" One of the man had an arabic accent. They reluctantly got down on their knees. Mary started to cry. It was hard for Takatora to see this. He closed his eyes as he heard several gunshots. "I'm sorry…" he said sadly. He watched as their names and pictures appeared on the giant screen.
A hole from the ground opened up. A man was brought up from the ground. It was Kyul the man who created the Sengoku drivers. Takatora watched as he gave a driver and a lockseed to one of the men.
"This is an Sengoku driver," Kyul said. "I haven't sent the lockseed to the island because it is a prototype. The melon lockseed was given as an experiment to many people but unfortunately they are all dead." The men were spooked after they heard that.
"And you're giving this to us why?" One of the men said.
"You'll have to trust me Amon," Kyul smiled at him. "Good luck." He tapped on the ground and he went back down. The ground then closed up. The three men then stared at each other. "So… what do you want us to do Amon?"
"Nothing yet Amik," Amon said.
"We have to survive that's what we do," the olher man said.
"With this driver we can, Azir. As brothers we must survive."
"So they're related," Takatora thought. He disliked that he had to them but he had no choice. He had to live and to survive this horrible game he had to kill people, He came out of hiding with a brazen look on his face. "I'm afraid I can't let you three live. Not after what you did to my friends."
"Hey… I know that face. He's on the contract!" Azir pointed out.
"Let's test this out," Amon said.
"Wait!" Amik shouted.
It was too late. There was a burst of lightning from the belt and it blew away Amon. He hit a tree behind him and whatever was left of him was a pile of ash. The belt was on the ashes where Amon was. "Brother!" Azir cried. He ran towards the pile of ash but Takatora was quicker. He knocked him out. He dived for the driver and the lockseed.
Amik scoffed. "Didn't you see what happened to my brother? You wouldn't dare put it on."
"There's only one way to find out," Takatora said. He placed the driver on his waist. He expected a shock but yellow straps attached on him. The face plate on the side of the driver revealed the white helmet of a masked man. He unlocked the lockseed. It shouted out: Melon!
"Henshin." He placed the lockseed into the driver and pushed down the slicing sword. The melon fell down on his head forming a white samurai styled under suit. The melon armor part then opened up forming the chestplate and shoulder pads. His helmet was a samurai styled armor. On the side of the belt was a black longsword while the lockseed armed him with a giant melon shield.
Amik took out his gun and shot at him but it was blocked by the shield. Takatora threw the shield at him and it stabbed him in the chest. Amik dropped dead to the ground. Azir got up and shook his head after being knocked out earlier. He saw his dead brother and snapped. "You...YOU!" He swung a punch at him but he stepped aside and stabbed him with his sword. He pulled the sword out and watched as Azir bled to death.
Takatora cancelled his transformation. "That was for my friends." He said coldly. He scavenged what he could take from their packs and left their bodies to rot. He buried his friends and left grave markers for each of their bodies.
"Stand behind me!" Kaito said to Mai. He placed the driver on his waist and took out the lockseed. "Henshin." He put the lockseed onto the driver and pushed down on the slicing sword transforming into Baron. The group of people crept in closer.
"Come on! If we all jump on him then he can't do anything." One of them said. The others agreed and they all pounced on him.
Kaito scoffed and pressed down on the slicing sword three times.
Banana Sparkling!
He slammed his spear onto the ground and energy beams shot out killing the attackers. He took the spear out and the bodies dropped to the floor. He closed the lockseed cancelling his transformation. "Are you okay?" He looked back at Mai. She nodded and smiled at him. Over the last hour she was beginning to warm up to him.
He smiled back. "All right, let's keep on going." He held her hand and they walked together.
"Why didn't you kill me back then?" She asked.
Kaito stopped and stared at her. She had finally said something after she told him her name earlier. He finally said "Because I like you."
"Eh?" Her cheeks were flushed. "What are you-?" Kaito suddenly kissed her and she stopped talking. She went along with it and they embraced each other. Kaito stopped himself from going any further and looked at her. Her face was flushed with a healthy red.
"We should continue moving."
She nodded and held his hand.
"The second day is almost over. We'll be safe for a little while." They continued to walk together holding hands.
Kouta took out several food packages from his pack. He handed them to the couple. "Its what I could find in here. Take it." They thanked him and started eating. He learned their names after saving them. They were Jenny and Antony. As with all the Battle Royale contestants they were kidnapped. Unfortunately they were taken on their anniversary. They finished up the food quickly.
"Thanks so much Kouta," Jenny said.
"Its fine. We're all just trying to survive this battle," Kouta smiled. He suddenly sneezed. He had given his jacket to cover Jenny's chest after her blouse had been torn off earlier by the men. It was getting dark which meant the day was almost over. For three hours no one would be able to kill until the new day began.
"Sorry again for the jacket. If we didn't get caught by those men…"
Kouta smiled again. "Its nothing. Just be glad I found you guys." He opened his pack and took out a snack to eat.
"So what now?" Antony said.
"We just keep on moving after they fire the sound for when the day ends. If we stay in one spot then we might get camped and then killed when the new day starts." He finished his snack and put on his pack. He then threw two packs to them. He had taken them from the crowd. He already scavenged the useful items that they could use. They got up and left.
Mitsuzane was shocked when he saw his brother transform into the white armored man. He was on the island as well? He must have seen me kill these men. But what was he doing here? He was thinking these questions many times in his head.
"What's wrong kid?" Oren said. "Is it about those men we killed?"
Mitsuzane shook his head. "It's nothing." He decided not to tell Oren about his brother. He didn't want to complicate things. "So what are you going to do with me now?"
Oren thought for a minute. "I was going to kill you but then you got a driver. You'll be more useful to me alive my friend." He held out his hand. "From now on. I will teach you how to fight. You won't survive for long with your skills. How about it?"
Mitsuzane shook his hand. "I guess I'll use him for now" He thought.
Oren suddenly punched him in the face. He swung his foot at him and he barely blocked it with his arms. The force knocked him to the ground. "What was that for?" Mitsuzane shouted. He crawled back as Oren walked towards him.
"Your training starts now, kid." He swung his fist at Mitsuzane.
955 survivors remaining
Next Episode: Professor Kyul decides the amount of survivors are too high and reveals his plans to create new drivers better than the Sengoku drivers. He forms a new group dedicated to cut down the players in the Battle Royale calling them the Executioners. Kouta fights against Kaito! Gridon and Kurokage appear!
Author's Note: The second day has finally ended and a brand new day will be starting. Instead of calling them the New Generation Riders I decided to call them "Executioners". The story can will get exciting as I continue to write more chapters. Gaim Yami and Ryugen Yomi will also appear in the story but how their role will play in the story is still being worked on. As for other Arm Changes I won't be using them. However, Gaim will have the Jinba Lemon, Kachidoki and Kiwami upgrade later on. The only change that Baron will receive is the Lemon Energy arms. Expect these forms to arrive late in the story.
