Just a heads up, though most of my references will be from Kamen Rider Blade, there will be references to other Kamen Rider series.

In a hidden location, sat a very tiny being. He looked like a sickly gray and green colored bird. He had a dark gray beak that hid his sharp white fangs. He wore a drab mossy green business suit, a white button up shirt, and a black tie. On his head rested a large skull; it appeared to be a crocodile or alligator, but protruding from the sides were two horns, one on each side.

"Sir, I must inform you that we have lost the Two of Spades," a pale green humanoid frog informed the small bird man. The frog-man wore a green tunic with a golden condor that perched on top of a world on it.

"How many times must I tell you Buff Frog, how must you address me before anything else?" The bird man's eyes glowed with a terrifying yellow.

Buff Frog stood at a bellamy salute, his back straight and his right arm pointed flat outwards at an angle towards the ceiling. "YEE! AMBASSADOR LUDO! MEW-SHOCKER BANZAI!"

Ludo looked up and down Buff Frog, "That is better, you were saying?"

"Our informants have reported that we have lost the Two of Spades. It was attacked by a boy and girl, both in their teens. Reports say that the young boy transformed into a Kamen Rider and defeated it."

"A Kamen Rider? That's not possible, it is too soon." Ludo swiped at Buff Frog only to just smack the much taller frog-man's legs. "Bend down!"

Buff Frog bent over to receive a slap to the face.

"We have just lost one of our cards. How are we going to make up for this?" growled Ludo.

"Sir, I also have more to report."

Ludo ground his teeth, "What else can go wrong?"

"I have just also received reports that the night before we had a raid at one of our research facilities. All of the reports say that a purple butterfly monster accompanied with a floating blue man attacked and stole the Ace of Spades we had kept there to research along with the Two of Hearts before its escape. The facility blew up in the attack."

"WHAT?! That must be how that brat got a card to transform. But that doesn't explain where he got the buckle to do so."

It was then that Ludo's right hand began to glow. It was a neon green glow that came from what looked to be a broken half of a star. Ludo put his right hand next to his ear, as if he were picking up a phone call.

"Excuse me, I have to take this." Ludo shoo'd Buff Frog away.

The frog-man stood up tall and performed the salute again, "YEE! MEW-SHOCK-"

"Get the fuck out of here Buff Frog, I have an important phone call to pick up!"

Buff Frog quickly left the room, leaving Ludo in privacy. Ludo, put his hand back up to his ear.

"Yes? Yes. We have lost a few cards and the test subject." Sweat began to drip from Ludo's forehead, "Everything is still on sche- Oh! You want me to speed up the project? Bu-bu-but. No buts. Yes sir. We'll have our spies watching the boy. You don't care for the boy? You're telling me that the girl is more important? But the boy transformed into a Kamen Rider sir."

Ludo's glowing fist punched himself in his right eye, Ludo winced in pain as he brought his hand back to his ear.

"Yes sir, I'll stop hitting myself sir. As you said, I will have Buff Frog monitor the girl- and the boy? That's what I was sayi-"

This time Ludo's glowing hand slapped himself; he landed on the floor with a thud. He brought his hand back to his ear.

"I... won't interrupt again sir. You give the orders and I will follow them. Banzai, Mew-Shocker." The glow in his hand disappeared.

Ludo laid on the floor, he looked up to the ceiling where a mural of a large golden condor clutched at the world against a crimson backdrop, and sighed before pushing himself up off the cold floor.

"BUFF FROG GET IN HERE!"

Buff Frog ran into the room as soon as possible, only to see what looked like a developing black eye on Ludo.

"You called Ambassador Ludo?"

"Not a single word from you! Bend down!" Ludo gave Buff Frog another slap in the face. "We have work to do."
