In an alleyway in the mirror world, a giant purple cobra slithered at high speeds towards a large green robotic ox. The ox was firing missile from its chest at the purple serpent. However, the giant snake dodged the missile and rammed itself at it foe. The ox tried to bat its opponent away with its cannon arm. As the two beasts battled their master are also going at it.
Zolda was hurled towards the wall of a nearby building. The collision was both painful and powerful as the wall crack and crumbled on top of him. He struggled to pick himself up from the rubble. As he does his best to free himself, Ouja walks towards him with his sword in his left hand. The sword was resting over his shoulder and behind his head. In his right hand was his cobra scepter. He started cracking his neck as he came closer to Zolda.
Zolda got himself free and started firing at Ouja with his gun. Ouja saw this and moved out of the way as fast as he could. However, he was hit by a few stray shots that hit his back. Ouja managed to find cover behind a corner of a building. He growled in anger as his contract monster Venosnaker retreated from Magnagiga.
FINAL VENT
Hearing this, Ouja looked to see Zolda get behind Magnagiga to prepare for his Final Vent. The thing that shocked Ouja the most was that they angled themselves well enough to hit him and destroy the build he was hiding. The barrage from Magnagiga came at him fast, but Ouja saw a window and leapt into it at the last second, narrowly avoiding death from the green Rider.
"He got away again, damn him!" cursed Zolda as he surveyed the area. "He's really one tough son of a bitch," he cursed again as he headed towards a Ride Shooter, that was a couple of blocks away from the battle zone.
Meanwhile at FentonWorks, Danny and Star are going over their biology homework. Correction, Danny has his head placed on his left hand with his elbow propped on the table with an aggravated expression on his face while Star is chatting on her cell phone. His left eye twitched every now and then as Star kept talking about who knows what is coming out of her mouth. He glanced at his sister and Dash who were going over a math lesson. A math lesson Dash is not paying any amount of attention on. Instead, he is gazing at Jazz as she tries and fails at tutoring the very empty-headed jock. Getting even more annoyed Danny got up and left the kitchen while Star continues to talk. Seeing this Jazz got up to follow her brother, much to Dash's dismay.
"Danny, what's wrong?" asked Jazz.
"What's wrong? Well let me think about that," replied Danny. "I'm starting to think I must have been high off of something to even agree to help tutor a blonde bimbo who is more into wasting my time by talking on her damn cell phone," he started while glaring at the oblivious blonde.
"I don't think it's that bad," commented Jazz trying to calm her brother.
"How are you doing with Dash then?" asked Danny in a dry tone.
"He's doing better," muttered Jazz as her brother looks at her with a pointed look. "Okay, he's horrible alright. All he does is stare at me and proves my theory wrong about no one being incapable of learning. Happy now?" she confessed.
"Slightly, but how are we going to get them to actually study?" asked Danny.
"I don't know, but I'm sure I can find a way to get them to focus," claimed Jazz with a smile.
"Is blackmail an option?" he asked this time.
"Why would that be an option?" replied his sister.
"Because I'm seeing two dumb blondes making out on our kitchen table," answered Danny with annoyance in his voice.
"That's crazy Danny, why would those two be… HOLY SHIT! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TWO DOING!" yelled Jazz as she saw Dash on top of Star with her arms wrapped around Dash's neck, making out in her house. Danny was surprised that his sister, 'Straight as an Arrow' Jazz could curse.
The two hormonal teens stopped for a second and looked at the Fenton siblings.
"What I wanted to have some fun. You're welcome to join in gorgeous," flirted Dash as he winked at her. He soon saw Danny and scowled. "What the Hell are you doing here loser?" he demanded.
"I happen to live here dumbass," replied Danny. "Also I think this study session is over so please be as kind as to GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE!" shouted Danny.
"Whose gonna make me huh?" challenged Dash. He got his answer in the form of a green beam flying past his head. He and Star turned to look at the scorch mark on the kitchen wall. They then looked at Danny who was holding a silver gun that had smoke coming out of the barrel.
"Want to try again Dash? I'm actually pretty good with a gun compared to my Dad," commented Danny as he moved the gun towards Dash's head.
The two blonde-haired people ran out of the house in a flash, one of them screaming like a frightened little girl and it wasn't Star. The Fenton siblings watched them speed off to their homes. Jazz looked at Danny in the usual big sister is not happy with little brother look on her face.
"What? You know Mom and Dad would never build any weapon that can hurt a human," whined Danny in a childish tone.
"You do realize that we're gonna get in trouble for this right?" asked Jazz in a very dry tone.
"Yes, but we have proof that they weren't studying," replied Danny as he set the gun down. "Besides, at least Dad will know that the ecto-gun actually works," he added.
The next day, Danny was in the hospital telling Sam what happened at his house.
"You actually shot at Dash and Star with one of your Dad's weapons?" questioned Sam. Danny nodded his head as the two of them laughed. "You do realize that you're gonna be in a lot of trouble for doing that right?" she asked as her laughter died down.
"I figured I would later on, but hey he was hitting on Jazz so what could I do?" replied Danny.
"You could have just told them that you had security cameras set up all over your house and can make sexual harassment charges," answered Sam.
"True, but that was more fun," commented Danny while smiling at his best friend. She in turn smiled back and rolled her eyes at him.
"No doubt it was," agreed Sam. "I guess I'm rubbing off on ya huh?" she asked.
"Well, maybe a little bit," answered Danny. "But, I have to put my own spin on it. After all no one can be just like you Sam," he added.
"Yeah, I guess so. Still, I wish you and Tucker would stop eating meat. You know that meat used to be alive Danny," commented Sam.
"Sam, what have we talked about trying to conform Tucker and me?" teased Danny knowing how that was a touchy subject.
"You're never gonna let that go are you?" she asked annoyed at her best friend.
"Nope," smirked Danny as he wrapped his arm around Sam's waist. "I don't like anyone trying to copy you. Not even Tucker and me," he added.
"Have I ever told you how much I'm glad that you talked me out of trying to do that?" Sam asked as she leaned into her best friend's one-armed hug.
"Only as much as I've told you that it's no problem," replied Danny.
"So I take it Star's parents fired you after your little stunt," mentioned Sam.
"I wish they were angrier with her for not applying herself to her studies after seeing the tape. They threatened to return all of her most recently purchased clothes back to the mall. They actually thanked me for bringing up the fact that their daughter isn't as sweet as they thought," whined Danny.
"So you still have to tutor her?" questioned Sam in disappointment.
"Worse, I have to tutor her in Biology and teach her how to cook. Something about how a proper young woman needs to know how to cook," answered Danny.
"Cook? You?" questioned Sam in disbelief.
"Hey, I'm not that bad," defended Danny. Sam did not look convinced in the slightest. "Hey, at least when I cook the food, it stays dead and edible," added Danny.
"True, out of everyone in your family you are the better cook," confessed Sam. Danny looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "Okay, you're the best compared to your family, Tucker and me," admitted Sam with a huff. "Happy?" she asked.
"Nope," muttered Danny.
"Why?" wondered Sam.
"You're still here," answered Danny.
"Danny…," whispered Sam. "I'll get better I promise," she said trying to comfort her best friend. 'I will get better and then I'll tell you how I feel,' she mentally declared.
"I know," whispered Danny. 'I'll do everything I can to make sure you'll get better. I won't let anyone stand in my way,' thought Danny as he held Sam closer to his body.
Elsewhere, we find Tucker at his house staring at his deck. His parents were out and Danny was at the hospital visiting Sam. His day at school was mostly the same as always, the only difference was that Dash was nervous around Danny. It was only after lunch that Danny told him what happened. To say Tucker was shock would be an understatement, he was close to blowing a fuse after mentally picturing Jazz and Star making out with one guy. Of course, he daydreamed that the guy was him, but he will not tell Danny that.
Still, Tucker was also curious about his deck that he was given. After trying it out the first time and seeing that belt appear around his waist, he really wants to see the other side. With that thought, Tucker headed towards his bathroom and faced the mirror. He pushed his deck towards the mirror and the belt appeared on his waist.
"Alright, suit up!" yelled Tucker as he placed the Deck into its slot.
Nothing.
"What? Come on I put the deck in. What did I do wrong?" complained Tucker as he pulls the deck out. He placed the deck in front of him again and tried again. "Change," he commanded.
Still nothing.
"Armor me baby!" Tucker tried again and still got nothing. "Replace. Equip. Fight Mode!" he tried again.
After several failed and ridiculous commands, Tucker walked out of his bathroom in disappointment.
"Why won't you work?" cried Tucker as he shakes his deck.
Unknown to Tucker the man who gave him his deck was watching from within the mirror world.
"Maybe I made a mistake when I gave him the deck," muttered the mysterious man. "Oh well, I still have six more to find before I have all players ready to really start my little game," he added as he watched Tucker whine and curse out the deck.
The next day, we find Danny and Tucker in school. However, due to what happened at the Fenton home Danny has become the target of many hate-filled glares from well everyone. The raven haired boy took a look towards his right and saw a few of the jocks throw him heated glares promising him a lot of pain. The school day was uneventful for Danny and Tucker, all that happened were mainly glares and being shoved into lockers mercilessly.
Just as Danny headed towards his locker, he heard the sound of the mirror world. He looked around to find nobody around. Wasting no time he headed towards the nearest men's bathroom. He took a look around and saw nobody inside. He pulled his deck out of his pocket and thrust it towards the mirror.
"Dragon Knight," he called out as his armor applied itself to his body once again. "Alright," he said as he jumped into the mirror.
Danny entered the mirror world and exited the bathroom and left the mirrored school. He found a Ride Shooter waiting for him. He got on and it took him to the park where he saw Thrust fighting a blue humanoid robot like monster with a boar's head as its main body. Danny disembarked and rushed in to fight.
A minute earlier, Tucker also heard the sound of the mirror world. Being new to this he had no idea what it was. He followed the sound and it led him to the same men's bathroom. He was about to open it when he heard a voice.
"Dragon Knight," said the voice.
"What the?" wondered Tucker as he opened the door slightly to see the Red Knight standing in front of the mirror.
He watched as he clenched his right hand and leapt into the mirror. Tucker was amazed as he entered to look at the mirror. All he saw was his reflection, normally he would be making a comment about his appearance, but he was more interested in what he saw before hand.
"How did he do it?" he asked himself as he pulled out his deck. He looked at it for a second and decided what he will do. "Alright I'll give it one more try," he said as he thrust the deck towards the mirror. Once again the belt appeared around his waist. With a determined look on his face that looked so unnatural because of his joking nature he took a deep breathe. "Armor mode," he called out as he placed it into the slot.
Once again he got nothing for his attempt. He looked at his reflection and was upset again. He pulled it out and was ready to try again.
"Okay let's try again. Now what did the red guy say before he jumped in? Oh yeah he said Dragon Knight, so maybe mines has Knight in its name," reasoned Tucker as he got himself positioned to try again. "Bat Knight," he called out and place the deck in his slot again.
Still nothing and once again he pulled it out.
"Okay again," he said as he tried again this time he looked at the bat design hoping for a clue. "Wing Knight," he called out. Once again nothing happened as he pulled it out. "Okay how about just Knight?" wondered Tucker as he slid the deck in.
This time it worked as two silver reflections appeared and overlapped his body. Now Tucker was covered in a dark blue body suit with black arm and leg guards and silver bolts on the parts of his body that are commonly placed on all the other Riders. His chest armor was silver with blue highlights designed to look like the body of a bat. His shoulders had silver pads placed on his biceps and designed to look slightly like shields with bolts on the center. His helmet looked like a mix of an actual Knight's mask based on bat wings, but were styled after Batman's Bat Symbol. On the left side of his belt was a silver thin sword with a Black Hand guard with a flat part facing outward also shaped like a bat's body with golden markings design much like a bat.
Tucker looked himself over in shock and excitement. He couldn't believe it he became a Masked Rider after so many failed attempts.
"Yes! I did it!" cheered Tucker as he jumped into the mirror.
Meanwhile back with Dragon Knight and Thrust, the two were facing the boar monster and weren't doing so well. Thrust charged it with his Strike Vent pulled back for a punch. The boar monster used its chest as a shield and braced itself. The Strike Vent hit the shield, but Thrust was pushed back from the impact. He hit the ground and Danny pulled him back up.
"Thanks Dragon Knight," said the rhino themed Rider.
"Yeah, well what now smart guy?" questioned the Dragon Rider as he slid his gauntlet down and pulled a card out.
"Maybe we should try a fake out move," suggested Thrust.
"A what?" asked Danny as he place the card in the slot.
"You know one of us attacks from one side and the other attacks from the other side," explained the other Rider.
"You mean a pincer attack?" summed up Danny as he shut his gauntlet.
STRIKE VENT
At that command, Dragredder flew above them and drop Danny's weapon the Drag Claw that he attached to his right arm.
Soon enough the two Riders charged at the blue boar. In return the boar charged at them with its shield drawn forward. However, Danny jumped on top of Thrust and flipped over the monster as Thrust continued his charge. The rhino based Rider collided his Strike Vent with the boar's shield. As the two were in a stand still, the Dragon Knight and his beast prepared for their fire attack.
"If you don't want to be roasted you better get out of the way Thrust!" yelled Danny as he and Dragredder unleashed the fire attack.
Luckily for Thrust he heard Danny and jumped away from the boar. The boar was confused as to why his opponent would back away. It never came to the conclusion of a trap as it was engulfed in flames. The beast was destroyed and its life force turned into light and floated away. However, Dragredder flew towards it and swallowed the light and left the area. The two Riders faced each other, Thrust appeared to slowly back away from Dragon Knight. The red Rider on the other hand charged at him and leapt into the air to deliver a flying side kick.
"Hey wait a minute!" yelled Thrust as he dodged the attack.
Danny landed on the ground and did a spinning roundhouse with his left leg. The kick connected with Thrust's head and spun towards the ground face first. He tried to get back up but Danny stomped on his back. He slid his gauntlet down and pulled a card out. Suddenly he took his foot off of Thrust and kicked him over. Thrust rolled out of the way and got himself back up. Just as Thrust pulled a card out of his deck both Riders heard the sound of a Ride Shooter coming towards them. The hatch of the Ride Shooter opened up and a new Rider appeared and ran towards them. They barely caught a glimpse of the Rider who jumped right in front of them.
"Have no fear ladies for the Star has arrived!" declared the new Rider with his arms up in the air.
The other two Riders looked at him and then each other. The new Rider's armor was based on a bat mix with an actual knight. However, his personality was anything but like a knight.
"This is gonna be a long afternoon," muttered Dragon Knight as he slid his gauntlet up.
SWORD VENT
Once again, Dragredder appeared overhead to deliver Danny his broadsword. The new Rider freaked out a little after hearing Dragredder roar as he flew by.
"I deal with him later, right now I'll take care of you Thrust," said Danny. However, Thrust used the distraction escape. The red Rider looked to see Thrust enter another Ride Shooter and leave. "What the….? Damn it!" cursed Danny.
"Looks like that other guy doesn't want to stay around," mentioned the new Rider. "Anyway, I'm the new Masked Rider, but call me Knight," he introduced himself. "It's the only name this deck seems to accept. Weird huh?" he explained.
The only response he got was Dragon Knight swinging his sword at him. Knight backed away in time and stumbled back.
"Dude what's your problem!" yelled Knight as he got back up grabbing his sword on his hip.
"I was so close to taking Thrust down and you had to get in the way," Dragon Knight muttered darkly. "Now I'm gonna take my frustration out on you!" he yelled as he swung his sword in an arch aiming for Knight's head.
Knight raised his sword to block the attack. Dragon Knight pulled back and did a spinning back slash at his foe. He hit his mark and Knight was flung back with sparks erupting from his chest armor. Knight landed on his back and rolled himself back onto his feet. He looked to see the red Rider charge at him with his sword low to the ground. Knight reacted by backing away before jumping to the left as Dragon Knight performed an upward slash that missed its target. To retaliate Knight swung his sword like it was a golf club and try to aim for Dragon Knight's head. However, the red Rider blocked the sword with his gauntlet, the Drag Visor. Suddenly, Dragon Knight pulled back and got slid his Drag Visor down and pull out another card.
"What are you doing?" asked Knight in wonder.
ADVENT
With that said Dragredder appeared above Knight and snatched him up in his jaws. Knight screamed as Dragredder thrashed about with him in his mouth. The red dragon flung his master's foe back to the ground and flew behind him. Dragon Knight was about the pull out another card, but he stopped when he saw that his armor was dissolving.
"Great, I've been here to long," he muttered as he and Dragredder started to leave.
"Where are you going?" asked Knight, surprised to still be standing.
"We can't stay in the mirror world for to long. If you do then the armor will vanish and you'll dissolve," explain Dragon Knight as he headed towards a Ride Shooter.
"Wait dissolve? No one told me about that!" panicked Knight as he followed Dragon Knight. Clearly forgetting the beating he got.
"Then how did you get that deck?" asked the red Rider as he got in the Ride Shooter.
"Some guy just gave it to me after telling me about this Rider thing," answered Knight.
"Figures, so why do you fight?" asked Dragon Knight.
"What? I don't know, because I was curious," replied Knight as he got into his Ride Shooter.
"Then find a reason and learn how to fight if you plan on staying. If not then stay away from any other Riders," said Dragon Knight as he rode off with Knight following behind.
Author's note: Well that another chapter down. I know it was a bit of a one sided fight, but keep in mind Tucker is a new Rider so of course he won't be doing so well. Don't worry though he will get better and he will be a match for Danny later on. He just needs to do a whole lot of catching up.
