Episode 4: Biggest Fan

A dark figure looks over downtown LA. "Filthy humans, constantly destroying nature," she said, preparing to jump. "I'll kill them all, one by one."

The figure then moved into the light, revealing it's true form. Its head was like a vampire bats, and its body was covered by black plate armor, with red around the edges. Its arms looked like bat wings, except for the five fingers at the ends. She looked around for a human to feed on, and noticed a thin blond girl on a bike.

"Perfect, just a light snack. I am trying to watch my figure." The creature then swooped on its prey, and the only thing heard was the girl's scream.

At the police department, the commissioner, a fat, balding man, looked over the case of Miah Tanner, whose body had been discovered a few inches away from her bike. "It just doesn't add up," the overworked man said in a raspy tone, "There were no signs of a struggle, only two small marks on her neck!" He threw the papers above his head in frustration.

"Sir, I think I might have an idea about it," said captain Garcia, walking in, "I think another one of those monsters may be involved. They seem to be related to animals, and the murder took place at night. Maybe it was a bat of some sort?"

"Your probably right Ronald, but I won't send my officers to fight another one of those things, never again," said the commissioner, getting up, "Last time there were thirty-two killed, thirteen wounded, and only five that walked away unscathed. I won't put you and your fellow officers in that danger again. At least not until the lab coats come up with a way to beat those creatures . . ."

While the commissioner and Garcia deliberated, Mike was driving around downtown in his normal form. "I'm sure I sensed that beastoid somewhere in this area," said Diablo, who was a red light next to Mike.

"I agree, it's definitely around here," said Mike, bringing the silver Hybrid runner to a stop. "Hey Diablo, I just thought of something. Maybe this beastoid is nocturnal. Remember that murder my dad told us about?"

"How could I forget? Remember, as far as anybody knows I'm your bodyguard. Your dad made me swear to keep you out of this area at night," said Diablo, coming to a stop as well. Mike looked at Diablo evilly. "I'm going to assume I'll be breaking that promise"

All of a sudden, they heard a shriek from nearby. A tall black haired girl ran at them. "Hybrid Rider Kamen, Rider Kamen Hybrid, Kamen Rider Hybrid! EEEK!"

"Do we know you?" Mike said, taking a few steps back.

"No, but you should! I'm Tara Bail, the president of your fan club!" She said, shrieking like a maniac.

"Fan club!" said both Diablo and Mike at the same time. Just then they heard a shriek even worse than Tara's. "Not another fan girl!" Mike said, covering his ears.

"Filthy humans! You have awakened Caria, the vampire bat beastoid! A lady needs her beauty sleep!" Ranted the hideous beastoid, flying down from a run down church.

"You especially creep!" said Diablo, taunting the monster. Tara went and found cover at a nearby bench, preparing to take pictures with her phone. Diablo went in with his fists on fire, but Caria kept dodging. "A-little-help-here-kid," said Diablo in between failed punches.

"Right," said Mike, putting in the Diablo DNA. The light on his hand turned on, and he ran in and uppercuted Caria, sending her flying strait up. While she was in the air, Mike grabbed Diablo, and went through the transformation. "KAMEN RIDER HYBRID: DIABLO FORM" Mike took out his spear and twirled it above his head. "Shall we?"

"Sorry, but I'm a bit sensitive in the daylight. Maybe another time," Said Caria, flying toward Tara. Mike jumped in the way, and was knocked to the ground. "Later Hybrid!" And Caria flew away.

Later that day, Mike and Diablo were in Mike's room, Diablo on the computer, Mike sitting on his couch, rubbing his chest. "Please tell me I don't have a fan club."

"No kid, you don't have just a fan club," Said Diablo, moving so that Mike could see the screen, "you have one fan club, three fan fictions, and two-hundred online polls."

"You're joking, right?" said Mike, geting up.

"No, and guess who started all of them," Diablo said, clicking a link that brought up a picture of Tara. "And that ain't the worst of it."

"What could be worse?" Mike said, burying his face in the couch's arm.

"One, she's vowed to the world to reveal your identity, and two, and this is a big one, she's Skylar's cousin." Diablo said grimly. Mike just groaned into the arm.

Meanwhile, Skylar was meeting Tara at the park. "Skylar, you'll never believe what just happened," said Tara, jumping like a mental patient, "I was just rescued by Kamen Rider Hybrid!"

Skylar looked alarmed. "What happened?"

"I was in the park looking over my photos, and I saw him drive up. I was the only one though. Most people are avoiding this area because of the murder last night. Oh, and it was one of those monsters he fights who committed the crime! I know he's coming back tonight, I just know it, and when he does, I'll put this GPS chip on his belt and, and, and,"

Skylar put her hand over her cousin's mouth. "GPS chip, how did you get that? Wait, don't tell me . . . "

" Internet." Both girls said at once (Tara's voice muffled by Skylar's hand). "Um, Mi ant reath," said Tara. Skylar immediately removed her hand, and Tara sighed in relief.

Late that night, Skylar and Tara hid under a bench, waiting for Mike. Just then, a motor sound could be heard, and Mike was there in Diablo form on the Hades Runner. "Kamen Rider Hybrid! Over here," said Tara, running to Mike. When she got close to him, she hugged him, placing the chip. "This is for luck." And she ran off, getting into Skylar's car. Skylar followed shortly.

Once they drove off, Diablo said "There's something not right in that girl's head."

"Tell me about it," Said Mike pulling his spear. "Now, let's find that bat." Mike called out the beastoid's name. He didn't have to wait long before Caria swooped down in front of him.

"Shall we?" she said taking a fighting stance.

"Hey, that's my line! Now it's personal," Said Mike, running for her. She jumped out of the way of his spear every time, taunting him. After the thirteenth jab, she clawed him, scratching his armor. " This is getting us nowhere, we need a new strategy."

"Mike, Diablo form has another armor. It's called Burning Mode." Mike sighed in relief, then got angry.

"And you only tell me about this now because . . ." Mike said, dodging another swipe.

"Because it's very dangerous. It drains a lot of energy and only lasts about five minutes. I don't think we have much choice though. Incoming on your right!" Mike barely dodged the attack. "All you need to do is punch Caria like before, and place the energy in your belt."

Mike didn't argue, and punched Caria in the face, causing a familiar red light to appear on his hand. He placed it on his belt and let the energy channel. The heat was so intense that Caria couldn't approach.

"What? The chip just fried!" said a very distraut Tara. She was so angry, she didn't notice Skylar smile. She was glad that the chip was destroyed, because she had seen Mike transform at the party. As far as she was concerned, she was Kamen Rider Hybrid's biggest fan.

Meanwhile, Mike finished the transformation. A cape had formed between his now golden tipped shoulder pads, and his chest plate had a red fire shaped gem in the middle. His horns were longer, and his shin and wrist guards hade golden flame designs. Mike looked at Caria and said, "Shall we?" His belt then said(in Diablo's voice) "KAMEN RIDER HYBRID: BURNING DIABLO FORM."
