Hello Fanfiction readers! Ashbel Longhart here to bust out another reaction for your reading pleasures. Sorry I haven't updated in a while, blame the you know who's. But I am back and ready to get this story rolling again. It's been a long time since I've done this so expect me to be a bit rusty when busting out reactions from the girls. But before we continue, cue disclaimer!
(Disclaimer: I do not own Kamen Rider or RWBY. They both belong to their respective owners. All I own is this story and nothing more. Please enjoy.)
Now then, last time the girls watched as Bravo made his debut. Now it's time for them to see more of him along with the Suika(Watermelon) Arms! Ruby is so gonna geek out. Anyway, let's get started and ride! Soiya!
Episode 7: Wrecking Ball Watermelon, Big Bang!
(RWBY Dorm Room)
The girls woke up at the sound of their alarm clocks going off which Yang later destroyed with her fists. Ruby and Yang woke up fine, Blake looked indifferent, and Weiss just looked angry which was probably because of last night's dream. Knowing that her sister would hog the bathroom, Ruby used her Semblance to get into the bathroom first and slam the door quickly. Yang didn't even get to get up from bed when this happened.
'You win some, you lose some.' Yang thought as she and the others waited for Ruby to finish. While waiting for her sister, Yang rummaged through the package of Kamen Rider disks and picked up the Gaim & Wizard Movie.
"I wonder when can we watch this?" Yang muttered to herself as she opened the case when a note fell out. Picking it up, it read: 'If you are planning on watching this movie, watch it after watching Episode 9 of Gaim.'
'That's three episodes away from where we're at!' Yang thought as excitement built up inside of her. "Hey girls!"
"What is it?" Weiss asked as Ruby finally exited the bathroom.
"Check this out!" Yang said, showing them the note. They all read it and like Yang, excitement started to build up inside of them.
"That's just three episodes away from where we're at!" Ruby said, excited. "Oh, tonight is going to be great! Granted we'll be up later than usual at night, but who cares!?"
"Better restock our supply of snacks then." Weiss said as they practically blew through it last night. That just goes to show how good this show is.
After the rest of the girls got themselves ready, they headed to class like normal. Sleeping through Prof. Port's class, trying to keep up with Pro-I mean, Dr. Oobleck, and enjoying combat class with Glynda, even if the blond teacher glared at every student. But then again, when wasn't she glaring? Once all that was over, they met up with JNPR and asked if they've watched the episodes they gave them. They said that they haven't yet, but are planning to watch it tonight. After lunch, the rest of the day flew by and when classes finally came to an end, the girls stopped by in town, bought the amount of snacks they needed for tonight, and headed back to their dorm room.
"Okay, is everything ready?" Ruby asked, in her pajamas, as snacks were spread out all over the place for tonight.
"All good here little sis." Yang said as Weiss nodded and Blake gave a thumbs okay saying everything was good.
"Alright! Now it time to get started!" Ruby said excitedly.
"You sound extra excited. Can't wait to watch the movie?" Blake asked.
"That and I want to see that watermelon robot suit!" Ruby said.
"Oh yeah, there was that." Yang said before she picked up the remote and started the episode.
The first scene showed Baron with Kurokage and Gridon about to face Gaim and Ryugen when Kurokage strikes Baron across the scene then changes to Gaim finishing off Kurokage before it changes to Kouta talking with Kaito.
"And that's what you get you backstabber!" Ruby said.
"Still can't believe Kaito lost." Blake said to herself.
Narrator: As the Riders' allegiances shift like a modern Sengoku States, Kouta is left shocked as a charismatic pâtissier named Oren transforms into a durian Armored Rider.
The next scene is Kouta speaking with Oren for the first time before it changes to Oren transforming for the first time into Bravo.
All the girls wince when they looked at the form of Bravo once again. They did not want to be hugged by this guy. Seriously, how many spikes can one armor have!?
"I hate to be the guy who faces this durian." Yang said as the girls nodded in agreement.
Narrator: What will become of the Armored Riders, Kurokage and Gridon?
All the girls looked at one another, having the same thought.
'They're gonna get their butts kicked.'
The scene takes place where the last episode left off. The crowd cheers as Bravo fights both Kurokage and Gridon. Bravo swings his weapons, forcing both nut themed Riders back as Gridon gets in closer and tries to hit the durian themed Rider with his hammer, but he misses before Bravo slashes him across the chest before turning around, deflecting a strike from Kurokage and slashes him across the chest as well. The crowd cheers while Kouta doesn't look too thrilled at what's happening.
"Kouta doesn't seem very happy." Ruby said.
"Well he's got a reason to be." Blake said. "Someone who isn't even a Beat Rider just became an Armored Rider right in front of him and is fighting for an unknown reason. I'd be the same as him if I were in his position."
Back to the fight, Bravo slashes Gridon across the chest again and pushes him back with a kick as the nut themed Rider falls on his butt. Quickly, he makes a dash behind the barrels he and Kurokage were using for practice.
"Oh man up and fight already!" Weiss said, not liking how Gridon was being such a coward.
Kurokage: Why you-!
Kurokage trusted his weapon forwards at Bravo when the durian Rider jumps up, dodging the attack and landed right on the weapon, surprising the nut themed Rider.
Kurokage: Wha-!?
Bravo: Un, deux…
With a spin that blew the wind and counting in french, Bravo kicked Kurokage right in the face, jumped right off his weapon and kicked his back, making him stumble forward.
Bravo: Trois!
"Holy! This guy has got some moves!" Yang said, she and the others amazed.
Crowd: Wow! That was amazing! That old guy's tough!
"Tell me about it. He's so skilled." Weiss said.
"He's no ordinary baker, that's for sure." Ruby said.
Kouta: He's no ordinary baker…
"Ooh, so close." Yang said as Ruby almost said the same thing as Kouta again.
"Shut up!" Ruby said before focusing back to the show.
Bravo: Un, deux, trois!
Kurokage goes for another stab, but Bravo deflects his attack. He turns and swings his weapon, but the durian Rider ducks under it and struck Kurokage's leg.
Kurokage: Hey, Gridon!
Kurokage goes for another attack, but Bravo dodges it and hits Kurokage right in the butt.
Kurokage: Come on, Gridon, teamwork!
Bravo: Come now! Eyes on me!
Kurokage jumps up in pain when Bravo hits his butt again and again, and again, igniting laughs from the crowd.
They weren't the only one's laugh as the girls were trying their best to hold back their laughter and failing miserably.
"Oh gods, this is too good!" Yang said, smiling.
As Kurokage keeps calling out to his 'partner' Gridon sighs at the name.
Gridon: Really getting tired of that name…
"Oh suck it up nut boy. You're stuck with that name whether you like it or not." Yang said.
"You can't really blame him for disliking the name." Weiss said. She definitely didn't want a name that meant acorn.
Bravo: Spanking time!
Kurokage: Ow! Damn it…
Funny little visual affects appeared when Bravo hit Kurokage's behind once again, making him fall to the ground as he dropped his weapon.
This of course ignited more laughter from the girls. It didn't help when the visual effects looked so funny looking.
Suddenly, Bravo grabbed Kurokage and lifted him up.
Kurokage: What are you-!?
Kurokage never got to finish as Bravo tossed him up into the air as if he were a simple pebble, said rider hitting the roof above them before falling down and right on top of Bravo's Mohawk, causing sparks to appear as with simple move of his head, sent Kurokage off of him as he transformed back into Hase with his Driver falling next to him. The Lockseed however went to Bravo.
"Oooooooh…" The girls winced at that finisher.
"That looked like it hurt." Ruby said.
"Defeat by Mohawk. You don't see that every day." Yang said.
Bravo: Oh, how cute! These are my spoils, aren't they?
Bravo shows of his award to the crowd as they cheer for him.
Bravo: Merci(Thank you)~! Merci~!
"What language is he speaking?" Weiss wondered out of curiosity.
"I don't know, but it sounds interesting." Blake commented.
Bravo: What a weakling! If this were a real war, you'd be a body bag right now.
Bravo goes and stomps on Hase, getting a cry of pain as funny little music played in the background as Gridon appeared from his hiding place and tip toed as quiet as possible while slowly approaching Bravo from behind.
"Really? He's going to attack from behind again?" Weiss said in a bit of disbelief. "Coward."
"I think we all now know that they only won against Kaito is because they kept attacking his back." Blake said.
"Not to mention is was two against one." Ruby added.
Gridon: Eat this!
Gridon goes for a surprise back attack, but Bravo attacks without even looking, hitting Gridon right in the face as he stumbled back. Bravo turns and kicks the nut themed Rider before punching him and elbow striking him right in the gut before finishing things off with a kick which sent the nut Rider flying, canceling his transformation as Jounouichi fell into the river with his Driver as his Lockseed flew to Bravo who caught it.
Bravo: Oh my, merci!
"And that's the match folks!" Yang said, talking like an announcer again.
"The same trick won't always work." Blake said.
"He beat them without using a finiser! Awesome!" Ruby said.
"Still, this Oren man fought like an experienced fighter." Weiss pointed out. "There's obviously more to him than meets the eye."
Crowd: That geezer's awesome! Bravo!
"Indeed. Bravo." Weiss said, congratulating the pâtissier.
"Well I guess we now know how he got his name." Yang said.
Bravo closes his Lockseed, transforming back into Oren as he smiles at the crowd.
Oren: Merci~! Merci~! Merci~!
Oren walks up to the crowd and bows to them as Hase grabs his Driver and makes his escape. That's when Kouta spoke up.
Kouta: Hey! What are you trying to pull?
Oren: Pardon(Excuse me)?
Kouta walks up to the man as epic music begins to play.
"Oh, I love this music!" Ruby commented before focusing back.
Kouta: That wasn't even a fight! What's so fun about messing with people and making a fool out of them, when you know you've already won?
"You tell him Kouta!" Ruby said even though she really enjoyed the fight just now.
Oren walks around Kouta and stand in front of the crowd as he speaks.
Orem: Such is the cruel world of professional entertainment, my boy. The viewers want blood, and tis the players' duty to provide!
"I hate to say it, but he's right." Blake said. She knew how cruel the world could be, being a Faunus and all.
"It's why we have the Vytal Festival after all." Weiss said. "But wanting blood is a bit much, don't you think?"
"Well, we all have Aura so if we didn't have that; we'd be spilling a lot of blood here." Yang said. Aura was the only thing that allowed anyone to go crazy in battle without having to worry about severely hurting someone.
Oren: It's a whole other world from your little amateur playfights!
Kouta: You're crazy!
Having enough, Kouta stomps away, not wanting to talk to the pâtissier any further. Oren just shrugs as Kouta leaves and turns to the crowd, laughing as they soon followed him in laughing.
(Cue Opening)
Once the opening theme ended, the scene that showed up was a close up on DJ Sagara's lips as he speaks to those watching the net.
Sagara: Hello, Zawame City!
"What is with these close ups?" Weiss asked, but no one answered.
Sagara: We've got another steaming hot piece of news fresh off the streets! There's a new Rider in town and we're gonna call him Bravo!
The scene that shows was a couple watching the video of Bravo fighting Kurokage and Gridon.
Sagara: He's a stranger to the world of street fighting we all know, but as a combatant he's the real deal!
"You can say that again." Yang said as they watched the clip of Gridon and Kurokage getting their asses handed to them.
"Just how is he so strong?" Weiss wondered. "Is it the Lockseed?"
"I don't think so." Blake said. "Something tells me that his fighting skills didn't come from the Lockseed."
"So what? Is he some sort of trained solider or something?" Ruby guessed, not knowing how right she was.
"A solider turned chef? I don't see it." Yang said, not knowing how wrong she was.
Sagara: He made his explosive entrance by cracking Invitto and Raid Wild, and has crushed his way through four other teams since then! And collected a whole bowl of Lockseeds in the process!
"Wait, what!?" All the girls said.
The next scene shows Bravo taking on other teams, tossing a tiny Ines away like it was nothing, but a used toy, kicked another Inves to death and obtained even more Lockseeds.
"Why is he doing all of this?" Ruby asked.
"How should we know?" Weiss said.
Sagara: Okay! We're bringing you an exclusive video message from the man himself, Bravo!
Once again, the girls said, "Wait, what?"
Sagara: Check it out, everyone!
From an IPad, the screen changes to show Oren as Bravo in his room enjoying a class of wine even though it was impossible to drink through a helmet. In front of him was a small table holding all of his earned Lockseeds.
"He does know he's wearing a helmet, right?" Ruby said.
"I'm sure it's all just for show." Weiss said.
Bravo: How did you like my show? I trust a display of true fighting passion was to your taste?
"It was alright." Yang said, thinking back to how beaten both Hase and Jounouichi were. They never stood a chance.
Bravo: I hope you've seen just how much a professional outclasses and amateur.
"Hey. Fuck you." Yang said.
"Language young lady!" Ruby said.
"I'm older than you."
"That doesn't mean anything!"
Bravo: If you stop giving these Beat Riders the oxygen of attention, they'll soon fade away like they deserve.
"Excuse me?" Blake said, not liking what Bravo had just said.
"That is just beyond rude!" Weiss said. And here she thought Oren was a much more classier man than that.
The scene shows a different screen at the Drupers.
Bravo: So I ask you, my darling people, to keep your eyes on me. And I'll show you what a pro can do.
The scene changes to show Kouta crying out angrily as he was currently with Mai.
Kouta: Honestly, what's that creep up to?
"That's what we're wondering." Weiss said.
"He's got to be doing all of this for a reason." Blake said. But what was the big question.
Kouta angrily cries like a cat again, getting some giggles from the girls and an unamuased look from Blake as back to the show, Bandou brought over Mai's order.
Bandou: Here you go.
Mai: Oh! Thanks!
Bandou: He's the pâtissier from Charmont, right?
"How does he know that?" Ruby asked.
"Charmont must be famous judging by how Mai and Kouta's sister acted when they tried cakes from there." Weiss said as they all drooled little at the thought of Charmont cakes. They quickly wiped away their drool as soon as it came.
Mai: Having the skill to make such wonderful cakes must make him dangerous in a fight!
"I seriously doubt that's the reason why he's a good at fighting." Blake said.
"Ditto." Yang added.
"Uh, shouldn't she be more worried about Oren himself?" Weiss asked as Mai seemed to calm. "This man is seriously a threat to all Beat Riders."
Weiss wasn't the only on to notice that as both Kouta and Bando almost fell over by how calm Mai was.
Kouta: Mai, you do realize he's a threat to every single Beat Rider, right?
Mai: Huh? Oh. Right.
"She doesn't seem that worried." Ruby pointed out.
"Don't tell me…" Blake began. "Is she still enchanted by those cakes?"
"Impossible! No cake is that good…right?" Weiss asked, not so sure of herself.
Mai: But why's he doing this?
"That's what we've been wondering." Yang said. "What did they do to make this guy go after every Beat Rider?"
"Well, there was Team Red Hot." Blake guessed.
"True…"
Kouta: Yeah, what did we ever do to piss off some famous cake guy?
"That's what we're wondering." Ruby said.
Kouat: It doesn't make any sense.
Bandou: Hmm…maybe it bugs him to see you guys having so much fun…
"Huh?"
"Pardon?"
"Excuse me?"
"Say what?"
Kouta: Huh?
"Wow, you still repeated after him." Yang said.
"It was just one word!" Ruby said.
Bandou: Well, he trained for ages and won a ton of contests all so he could make cakes for people to enjoy, right? But nowadays, anyone can be an artist just by uploading a video. Used to be, an artist can't get anywhere without a teacher's blessing.
Mai: But's that's ancient history.
"I agree with Mai, there's got to be more than that?" Ruby said.
*CLANG!*
All the girls jump a little in surprise.
"Who just did that?" Yang asked as the sound was sudden.
The screen shows that it was none other than Kaito setting down a small cup of coffee as he gets up from his table and walks up to Kouta and Mai.
"Why am I not surprised?" Blake said.
Kaito: Pathetic. I bet this Bravo would love to see you two moping around.
Kouta: Kaito! You're not saying he's right, are you?
"Oh boy." Ruby said.
"Here we go again." Yang said.
"Another talk about being strong from Kaito Kumon." Weiss said.
Blake said nothing as she kept her eyes on Kaito.
Kaito: It doesn't matter if he's right or not. He's backing it up with his power. You can only argue with the strong by being even stronger.
'Just like Adam.' Blake thought as once again, she was reminded of the bull Faunus.
Worker: I'm going on break.
Bandou: You always pick the perfect time to leave, don't you?
"I think that's called being smart." Yang said.
Kaito: If you don't like what he says, defeat him and shut him up. But…Do you even have the mettle to do that, Gaim?
Kouta slams a fist down on the table.
Kouta: That's not going to solve anything!
"Kouta's right. Violence only breeds more violence." Blake said.
Kaito: We received a challenge from this Bravo character this morning.
"Wait, what?" The girls said in surprise.
Kouta looks surprised while Mai develops a big smile at the mention of Bravo aka Oren. Kouta notices this and tries to snap her out of it.
"Okay, I think we can all say that those cakes are deadly." Yang said, seeing Mai's reaction to the mention of Bravo.
Kaito: Isn't that a relief, Gaim? You can just sit on the side lines and watch. I'll shut him up for you.
"So it's Kaito aka Baron vs. Oren aka Bravo." Weiss said.
"This should be interesting." Blake commented.
"A banana vs. a durian. Interesting indeed." Yang said.
"I'm voting for Kaito." Ruby said. After what Oren had said earlier, she's sooner support a jerk like Kaito than someone like Oren, even if the man did make delicious looking cakes.
Kaito takes his leave, leaving Kouta and Mai. The scene then changes to Yggdrasill Tower as Sid was currently with Takatora.
Sid: Oren Gennosuke. Emigrated to France fifteen years ago to perfect his baking art.
"Oren Gennosuke?" Yang repeated in confusion.
"Must be his real name." Blake said.
"Looks like they're going over what we already know." Weiss said. At least, that's what she and the others thought.
Sid: Fought in Africa and the Middle East as part of the Parachute Regiment in pursuit of citizenship.
"Wait, what!?" All the girls said in surprise.
"He's a soldier!?" Yang said in surprise.
"No wonder he's so good at fighting." Weiss said.
"Oren just got a lot more scarier." Ruby said.
The scene shows Sid holding up Oren's documents as one photo showed him as he is now and another one shows him in a military uniform.
Sid: After his service, he changed his name to Pierre Alfonso, gained his title of Master Pâtissier, and then returned to Japan last year. And that's it.
Takatora: So he's an elite soldier with real combat experience.
"Looks like it." Yang said.
"He might be the strongest Rider out of everyone besides Takatora himself." Blake said.
"Do you think Kaito can beat him?" Weiss asked.
"Who knows?" Blake shrugged, not sure.
Takatora: How did such a dangerous individual get his hands on one of our Drivers?
"You can blame the idiotic and cowardly Team Red Hot." Weiss said.
Sid: I couldn't tell you. I can guarantee who I gave the Driver to, but that doesn't mean they'll be the owners.
"He's right. Kouta is a fine example of that." Weiss said.
Sid: They could always give it to someone else and let them initialize it.
Takatora: How do you intend to fix this, Sid?
Just as things were about to get more tense than they already were, the screen behind them changes as showing up was none other than DJ Sagara himself!
Sagara: Now hold on. You can never predict everything that could go wrong, Overseer Kureshima.
"Sagara!?" All the girls said in surprise.
"He's with Yggdrasill!?" Weiss said.
"I thought he was just some random DJ guy!" Yang said.
"Looks like you can never judge a person by their cover." Blake said.
Sagara: I mean, you did lose that valuable Watermelon Lockseed somewhere, didn't you?
"From what we saw from the preview, I can see how that Lockseed is valuable." Weiss said.
"Oh I can't wait until Kouta uses it!" Ruby said with stars in her eyes as the center of those stars was the Suika Lockseed.
Sagara: And yet, you're always so eager to discipline your subordinates for their mistakes…
"Oh~! He got him there!" Yang said. "DJ Sagara: One! Takatora: Zero!"
Takatora: Even so, letting a trained soldier use the Driver is too dangerous!
"I have to agree with him." Weiss said. "We still don't know why Oren is fighting all these Beat Riders in the first place."
"I see your point." Blake said, wondering what the pâtissier was planning by doing all of this.
Takatora: We must recover it at once!
Sagara: Really? I think we should extend our hand to him. It'll be a great boost to my program too.
"He can't be serious, right?" Weiss asked.
Takatora: The purpose of your little show is propaganda, nothing more! Do not mistake your place!
"Wow. Someone's angry." Yang said. And they say she was scary when angry.
Sagara didn't seem scared, rather feigning fear as he smiled in amusement.
Sid: But Professor Ryouma likes him having it.
"Prof. Ryouma? Who the heck is that?" Yang asked.
"Probably a character that'll appear later in the show." Ruby guessed.
Sid: He says he's getting unprecedentedly useful data.
"So he's the one in charge of overlooking the data of the other Riders." Weiss said.
"That's the only explanation so far." Blake said.
A Sudden Voice: Indeed.
"Whoa! What the!?"
Both Takatora and Sid look up as the scene changes to a lab with one person being there.
"Wow. I did not expect him to show up soon." Ruby said. Usually, it takes a while for a new character to show up if their name is just mentioned for the first time in a show.
Ryouma: It is an unusual case, but within the bounds of the project as a whole. Why don't we let him go a bit longer, Takatora?
Takatora debated on what to do before he took his leave, but not before saying a few last things.
Takatora: Just keep an eye on the streets. Contact me immediately if anything happens.
Sagara: Yeah, yeah.
Sid: Yes sir.
The scene then changes to Baron and Bravo fighting one another, their weapons clashing.
"Whoa! Here we go!" Yang said, getting pumped.
Baron swings his Banaspear two times, but Bravo dodges the first hit and deflects the second before he strikes Baron across the chest two times with his Duri Nokoes, causing sparks to fly off of Baron's armor as the banana Rider stumbles back a bit. Baron quickly recovers and attacks again, but his attack gets deflected again as Bravo kicks him Baron back and slashing him across the chest when Baron went to attack his head before turning around and striking Baron's back. Baron stumbles a bit, but recovers and turns to the durian Rider, out of breath before he goes for another attack, but Bravo pushed the attack back, slashing him across the chest and then kick him back where he landed in a pile crates and cans.
"Shit, things don't look good for Kaito." Yang said.
"He's fighting a train soldier. It's only natural that he's having this much trouble." Blake said.
Baron gets back up and charges towards the durian Rider. His first attack was deflected, his second attack was dodged, and his third attack was deflected again before Bravo slashes him across the chest, sending him crashing into some fences.
Baron: Such might…who are you?
Bravo: Sorry, but you just can't match my training.
"He's right. Factoring in experience, Oren wins as he has real combat experience and has probably been more fights than Kaito has had." Blake said.
"So Kaito will have to play this smart if he wants to win." Weiss said.
Baron: But you won't win with brute for alone!
Baron suddenly holds up three Lockseeds and unlocks them, summoning three Elementary Inves as an arena formed around them as Baron closes the Lockseeds, starting Round 2.
BATTLE, START!
"Strength in numbers." Ruby pointed out.
"It might give Baron an advantage, but it won't work if Bravo outmatches his tactic." Blake said.
Bravo: Oh my, my, my.
An Inves goes to hit him, but he dodges and deflects an attack from second and third Inves before blocking an attack from Baron. Baron moves out of the way of an attack from Bravo as the durian Rider dodges just in time to avoid another attack from one of the Inves before blocking another attack from Baron.
Bravo: That's quite the artistic move. Not bad at all, for an amateur.
Baron struggles to overpower Bravo, but that wasn't exactly easy as he was using only one hand while the other was occupied with holding onto the Lockseeds that controlled the Inves. Bravo then pushes Baron back and kicks an Inves attempting to attack him from behind before moving out of the way from another attack from Baron.
Bravo: But one thing you must learn…
Baron bobs and weaves and deflects attacks from the Inves as he spoke.
Bravo: Is that the best art is always the most fragile!
Bravo kicks an Inves back before being forced to kneel down as all three Inves attacked as one. But just when Baron thought he had gotten the upper hand, Bravo pushes all three Inves off of him twirls around, weapons out as he destroys all three Inves, causing the arena to disappear and surprise Baron.
Baron: What!?
"Well shit, this can't be good." Yang said.
"He's good. Too good." Weiss said.
Bravo chuckles before he attacks, Baron blocks the attack with his weapon, but Bravo pulls back and throws a surprise punch right at Baron's chest before grabbing him by the shoulders and proceeded to throwing knee strikes after knee strikes before he stops and slashes Baron across the chest.
Bravo: Voila(Here you go)!
Decided that now was a good time to end thins, Bravo goes and 'slices' his Lockseed once.
DURIAN SQUASH!
Energy starts to gather around him before it all gathers at his Mohawk, extending it as with a wave of the bigger and empowered Mohawk, Bravo sent Baron flying where he crashes into some pipes, spewing steam everywhere as sparks flew. Baron gets to his knees, but his transformation ends as he had taken too much damage. His Driver comes off as his Lockseed flies towards Bravo where he caught it. Bravo had won.
"Dang, he lost." Yang said. "Defeat by Mohawk again."
"At least Oren fought fairly." Weiss said. "Kaito's opponent was just too much for him this time."
"He doesn't look so good." Ruby said, pointing out how injured Kaito was.
"He may have armor, but armor can only protect you from so much." Blake said.
Bravo cancels his transformation, transforming back to Oren as he walks up to the injured Beat Rider who was struggling to get back up.
Oren: Don't push yourself. That's a rather deep wound you just took.
Kaito glares at the pâtissier, using the remaining pipes that were still standing to help him up.
Kaito: I'm…not done yet!
Oren: Oh my.
Oren then does something the surprises everyone. He tosses Kairo's Lockseed back to him.
"What the? Why's he giving Kaito's Lockseed back?" Ruby asked.
"How should we know? We can barely figure out what this man is thinking." Weiss said.
Kaito: Are you taking pity on me?
Oren: You show genuine promise. Train yourself up. I'd be delighted to take you on again. Salut(See you)!
"Wow. Oren just complimented someone. And it's Kaito!" Yang said.
"He must see Kaito having a lot of potential if he's actually praising him." Blake said.
Oren blows him a kiss before he takes his leave, leaving Kaito all to his lonesome.
"I guess this really proves just how powerful and dangerous Oren really is." Weiss said.
"If he was able to take down Kaito, then it looks like him having real combat experience was no lie." Blake said.
"Wait a minute. Now that he's defeated Baron, won't that mean he'll go after Gaim next?" Yang asked.
"You're right! With Baron defeated, he'll eventually go after Gaim!" Ruby said, scared for the team.
The scene changes Team Gaim dancing at their stage, entertaining a crowd as they were all in tip top shape as always when it came to dancing.
"I always feel like getting up and dancing when I hear this music." Yang commented.
"Me too! It looks like fun!" Ruby said.
While Team Gaim was dancing, a man was speaking with another with Kouta patrolling around.
Man: Did you hear Bravo beat up Baron too?
"Wow. News travels fast." Ruby said.
"Which begs the question, how did they get that info?" Blake said. "It didn't look like someone was nearby to see Baron and Bravo's fight."
"Maybe someone saw how beat up Kaito was." Yang said.
Man #2: Is there any Beat Rider that can stand up to him?
"He's standing right behind you." Ruby said, having confidence that Kouta can beat Bravo.
Man #3: I bet Gaim's next on the list. What if he came here?
Man #2: No way.
Man #1: It'd be great!
"Anyone else feeling like Oren's gonna appear soon?" Yang asked.
"In three, two, one…" Weiss counted down.
And right on time, the music Gaim was using stopped playing. Looking to see who had done it, it was none other than Oren himself.
"Well, that was fast." Yang said.
Gaim Member #1: Hey! What are you doing?
The crowd begins to converse with one another as Mitsuzane sees who it is.
Mitsuzane: You're…
"Looks like Micchy's been keeping up with the news." Yang said.
"Kick his butt, Mitsuzane!" Weiss cheered.
"She seems excited." Blake commented with Ruby nodding in agreement.
Mai: Mr. Oren!
All the girls almost fell over when they saw Mai's reaction to seeing Oren.
"Mai, now is not the time to fangirl." Weiss said.
"Seriously, how were those cakes?" Yang said.
Mai's friends were also surprised at Mai's reaction as Oren turned and smiled while the crowd was surprised that Oren actually appeared. Kouta quickly makes his way to the stage while Oren slowly walks up to team Gaim was said team slowly backing away.
Oren: If this city's really going to provide public stages for this nonsense…The least they could do is make sure the acts are actually talented.
"Hey! Don't dis off the Team! They all worked hard on their dancing!" Yang said.
"Oh I hope Kouta and Micchy kick his butt!" Ruby said. It was two Riders against one after all.
Chucky: Where do you get off judging our dancing?
"Yeah! You tell him!" Ruby cheered.
Oren: Well I don't see anyone else bothering, sweetie!
The Team backs away further.
"The team sure is scared of him." Ruby commented.
"He's been going around beating other Beat Riders. Of course they're scared." Weiss said.
Oren: It's important that the chaff is removed from art, that only the best remains to be seen! It's because know-nothing amateurs like yourselves get to prance around like this that culture as we know it is in decline!
After his speech, Oren actually puffed his cheeks in a pout.
"Did…Did he just pout?" Yang asked.
"Yes. Yes he did." Weiss said.
Mitsuzane: We don't care about art or culture!
Mai: Yeah. We only want to share our fun with the streets. Isn't that all right?
Oren: It's wrong darling! All wrong!
In the background, the type of bell used in wrestling to start a round rings in the background as Oren takes off his head piece off in anger.
"Ah! My eyes!" Yang said dramatically as she looked away.
"Oh stop being so dramatic." Blake said.
Oren: Art is not a playground for the likes of you!
Oren then puts on his Sengoku Driver and pulls out his Durian Lockseed, unlocking it.
DURIAN!
"Looks like its durian time!" Yang said.
The girls all groaned as Weiss said, "That was bad and you know it."
"It wasn't that bad."
LOCK ON!
As rock music plays from the belt, Oren does his pre-transformation sequence before 'slicing' his Lockseed.
DURIAN ARMS! MISTER DANGEROUS!
Seeing that Oren was ready to rumble, Kouta quickly gets up on the stage.
Kouta: Whoa there!
Mai: Kouta!
Kouta: This is gonna get ugly. Get back.
"Kouta's right. It's two Riders fighting against another Rider with real combat experience. Who knows what type of damage this fight will cause." Blake said.
Kouta: He's a tough one. I'll back you up.
Mitsuzane: Okay!
"With Kouta and Micchy together, there's no way they can lose!" Ruby said.
"Don't get ahead of yourself. We don't know how this will turn out." Weiss said.
Bravo: Oh, so you're a Beat Rider too? That explains your terrible fashion sense!
"Geez, the trash talk is real!" Yang said.
"Don't talk bad about the hoodie!" Ruby said as she really liked the look of the hoodie.
Kouta takes offense to that, but focuses back on the matter at hand.
Kouta: You said you don't get along with Aquarians, right? I don't make a habit of paying attention to horoscopes…But just this once, they're spot on! Micchy!
Mitsuzane: Right!
The two Beat Riders take out their Sengoku Drivers and their Lockseeds.
ORANGE!
BUDOU!
Kouta and Mitsuzane: Henshin!
The two quickly to their pre-transformation sequence before slapping their Lockseeds on their Drivers and 'slicing' them.
LOCK ON!
SOIYA! ORANGE ARMS! HANMICHI ON STAGE!
HAI~! BUDOU ARMS! RYU, HOU! HA, HA, HA!
"In the blue corner, we have both Kouta and Micchy aka Armored Riders Gaim and Ryugen!" Yang said, speaking like an announcer again. "In the red corner, we have Oren aka Armored Rider Bravo! Round 1, fight!"
"Aren't you gonna say something?" Weiss asked the cat Faunus.
"I decided to just give up." Blake said.
Bravo: Ouverture(Let us begin)!
Gaim: Oh give it a damn rest!
Gaim runs ahead, taking the lead as Ryugen follows close behind. Gaim strikes first, but Bravo deflects his attack and attacks Ryugen, forcing him to duck under the attack as Bravo turns to Gaim and blocks another attack. Ryugen runs up to Gaim side as the orange Rider tries to get a hit in with his Daidaimaru, but Bravo expertly blocks and doges his attacks easily and dodges an attack from Ryugen who ran up to punch him.
Gaim: Why you!
Gaim and Bravo enter a deadlock as Ryugen provides support fire, missing the first shot and was about to shoot again when he sees Gaim in the way, making him unable to shoot.
"He's using Kouta as a shield." Weiss pointed out. "How clever."
Ryugen: He's using Kouta as a shield!
Weiss gains a look of disbelief as the others hold back their laughs.
"Feel my pain." Ruby said after calming down.
Seeing that long range attacks were too risky, Ryugen goes in to get close while the others cheer on the Riders. Bravo blocks and deflects Gaim's attacks and moves back away from a kick. Gaim and Ryugen separate, attacking the durian Rider from both sides as Bravo blocks attacks from the both of them before kicking Ryugen off the stage where the crowd quickly moves away.
Gaim Member #2: Micchy!
Mai: Whoa…He's really good at fighting!
"What was your first clue?" Weiss said.
Gaim and Bravo enter another deadlock as Gaim speaks to Bravo
Gaim: You worked longer and harder than anyone to become a master pâtissier. You're proud of that, aren't you?
Bravo and Gaim switch positions as Bravo speaks.
Bravo: Of course I am. I'm a true professional, after all.
Bravo pushes Gaim's weapons upward and strikes with both his Duri Nokoes, but Gaimblocks with his Daidaimaru in time as he was pushed back against the wall.
Gaim: Then why can't you be satisfied just being proud of your cakes? They're making more people way happier than what you're doing to us!
"Kouta's right! Oren made many more happier with his cakes than what he's doing right now." Ruby said.
Bravo: Silence!
Bravo throws an attack at the orange Rider, but Gaim ducks under it in time and moves away to Gaim some breathing room. Bravo turns around and swings his weapon, almost hitting Gaim as the orange Rider goes for a stab, but Bravo deflects the attack and stabs Gaim in the gut, making him stumble back. Gaim recovers and attacks again, but Bravo blocks his attack and then disarms him and before striking him across the face, sending him flying off the stage.
Ryugen: Kouta!
Lucky for Gaim, Ryugen was there to catch him and soften his fall.
Gaim: Micchy!
Gaim draws his Musou Saber as Ryugen pulls the hammer of his RyuHou back. The two then fire, but Bravo combines both his Duri Nokes and spins them around at a fast rate, blocking all the bullets before sending his weapon forward, hitting both Riders as they all back down as their armor spewed smoke from the damage Bravo had dealt.
Gaim Member #2: Kouta!
"Damn! Even with the both of them, they still can't beat him!" Yang said.
"I've never seen a man so strong! He's probably stronger than the soldiers of Atlas!" Weiss said.
"He might be as strong as a Huntsmen if he's this strong." Blake said.
"Kouta! Micchy! You have to get up!" Ruby said.
Bravo laughs down at the two who were struggling to get back up.
Gaim: He's so strong…
Bravo: Ah, I know! Let's try out that adorable little tactic of his!
"What is he talking about?" Ruby asked.
The others thought about it until Blake came up with an answer.
"Don't tell he's-!"
"What? What is it?" Yang asked.
"He's gonna try summoning Inves like Kaito did." Blake said.
Like Blake had guessed, Bravo took out all the Lockseeds he had earned from his fights with the other Beat Riders, but instead of holding them, he drops them all to the ground, summoning tons of Inves, a Bat and a Deer Inves while the rest were Elementary, as the people scatter and run in fear.
"What the!? What's that idiot doing!?" Weiss said. "You're supposed to be holding onto the Lockseed! Not drop them!"
"He's not a Beat Rider like everyone else. He doesn't know that fact." Blake said. "I was afraid that he'll use Inves against Kouta and Mitsuzane, but this is even worse!"
Gaim: Whoa, whoa, whoa! You're meant to be controlling them!
Bravo: What do you mean?
Mai: He doesn't even know the first thing about summoning Inves!
The Inves roar before they break out of the arena that had been formed, attacking Gaim and Ryugen while the people run.
Ryugen: And they're so many of them!
"Mitsuzane's right. They've never faced this many Inves before." Weiss said.
Gaim and Ryugen fight as many Inves as possible, but some got past them as one Inves grabbed a person and struck them across the face.
"Oh! That had to hurt." Yang said, feeling bad for the man.
The Inves also attack Team Gaim as the whole place was in chaos.
Gaim: This is bad!
"Tell us something that we don't know!" Yang said.
Gaim pushes the Inves that he was fight back before looking around and saw someone that needed help. Quickly, he runs up and grabs the Inves, getting it off the person and hitting it across the face.
Gaim: Run!
With Ryugen, he sees the team in trouble and goes to help.
Ryugen: Rat!
"His name is Rat? Seriously?" Weiss said.
"I think we have bigger problems than being concerned with a name." Yang said.
Ryugen kicks the Inves that was assaulting Rat before moving it away from the team and shooting it. With Bravo, he was having some trouble himself.
Bravo: How dare you! I am your commander! Such insubordination! You'd think I could beat some sense into you!
"They're mindless beasts. That won't work." Weiss said.
From a bird's eyes point of view, the Inves were everywhere. The people ran for safety whiles the Riders did they best to take down the Inves, but that was easier said than done. Gaim slashed an Inves before going over to another Inves and slashing it's back, but he was then held back by Two Inves grabbing his arms.
"This isn't good. There's too many of them!" Ruby said.
Gaim: There's too many of them!
"Dang it TV! Now is not the time to make fun of me!" Ruby said.
The girls wanted to laugh, but the situation the Riders were made that feeling die.
Ryugen kicks away an Inves, protecting the team before he goes and grabs the Suika Lockseed.
Ryugen: Kouta! Use this!
Ryugen then throws the Lockseed to Kouta who manages to push the Inves on him back before he catches the Lockseed.
"It's here! Finally!" Ruby cheered, getting way to close to the screen. She didn't want to miss a single second.
"Back up sis. Don't want to go blind now." Yang said as she pulled her sister back from the TV screen.
Gaim: Another new Lockseed? What's this one gonna be?
"Oh, you're gonna be in for a surprise." Yang said.
Gaim then unlocks it.
SUIKA!
"Suika? That's how they say Watermelon?" Weiss asked.
"I guess." Blake said with a shrug.
A giant Crack appears above Gaim and opens up, revealing a huge, and I mean huge metallic watermelon. This was the Suika Armor Parts.
Gaim: Whoa! It's huge! Micchy, I can't handle this!
The others were surprised as well as they couldn't believe the size of that thing.
Ryugen: What is that, a wrecking ball?
"Well, if you look at it that way, it kinda does." Yang said.
Rat: It's gigantic!
Bravo tosses an Inves away before he sees the Suika Armor Parts.
Bravo: Oh, how beautiful…
Gaim: Micchy, it's too big!
Bravo: Look at the size of it…
"Did anyone else feel weird when he said that?" Yang asked and Weiss and Blake raised their hands.
"Why would you three feel weird?" Ruby asked.
"We'll tell you when you're older." Yang said.
Ruby just pouted before focusing back on the GIGANTIC WATERMELON!
Gaim: A real man rises to the challenge!
"You think that's something Jaune would say?" Yang asked, noticing Gaim's still fearful tone.
"Oh yeah." Weiss said.
Gaim gathers his baring's as he takes out his Orange Lockseed. He then slaps the Suika Lockseed on and locks it into place.
LOCK ON!
The regular Japanese war horns sound from Gaim's Driver as Ryugen and Mai pray for Kouta's safety.
"Should we pray as well?" Yang asked. "I mean, seeing as how the armor is put in, this might be bad for Kouta."
"Don't' worry! Kouta's got this!" Ruby said with confidence.
SOIYA!
Gaim: Come on!
Once the Suika Lockseed was 'sliced' the Suika Armor Parts fell down upon Gaim…and crushed him.
And just like that, Ruby's confidence was shattered. "KOUTA!"
"Shit! He was crushed!" Yang said.
Ryugen: Whoa! Whoops!
Mai: Kouta!
Rat: Koutaaaaa!
While Team Gaim was horrified at what had happened, Bravo was laughing.
Bravo: Literal suicide tactics! Beautiful!
"This is no laughing matter!" Blake said.
"There is nothing beautiful about suicide!" Weiss practically screamed.
The Inves all approach the giant metallic watermelon when all of a sudden, it starts to spin.
SUIKA ARMS! ODAMA BIG BANG!
"What, huh!?" All the girls said in surprise.
The Suika Armor Parts destroys the Inves around it before rolling onto its side and started to roll around, crushing any Inves in his way.
"Is Kouta doing that?" Ruby asked.
"How should we know? We don't know what that thing does." Weiss said.
"Besides transforming into armor?" Blake said.
"That too."
Bravo: My lovely tactical unit!
Bravo jumps off the stage and actually stop the metallic watermelon…for a short time as the watermelon rolled upward, sending Bravo flying into some equipment. Then, Gaim's armored head pops out of an opening.
"He's alive!" Ruby cheered.
"Oh thank god!" Weiss said, resting a hand over her heart.
"Scaring us like that, geez." Yang said.
Gaim: Nice Micchy! This is gonna be a big help!
Ryugen: Kouta! You're okay…
"Micchy sounds relieved." Yang commented.
"Well, he just saw his friend get crushed under the Lockseed he had given. He must have felt responsible." Weiss said.
While the team was relieved to know that Gaim was okay, Bravo got back up, angry.
Bravo: Very well! In that case…
"What's he planning this time?" Weiss asked.
To everyone's surprise (That includes Team RWBY) Bravo moves away some sheets that was hiding some metal beams, grabs one, and actually lifts it up!
"He lifted up that thing!?" Yang said in surprise. She was pretty strong herself, but even she would have trouble lifting that up!
"Just how strong do those armor power-up their user?" Blake wondered.
"Oh~! I want it more!" Ruby said, wanting to become an Armored Rider.
Team Gaim all look with surprise as Bravo runs past them varying a metal beam.
Bravo: Time to split you!
Bravo swings down the beam, but Gaim sees it in time and ducks back into the metallic watermelon, controlling it to move away as his head pops out again.
Gaim: He's gonna split me like a melon!
"Well you are a watermelon." Yang said.
"Now is not the time for puns!" Weiss said.
"I didn't say anything!"
"But you were going to."
Gaim quickly ducks back in as the Suika Armor Parts. It does another swing before Bravo lifts up the beam, times it right, and lets it fall right on top of the Suika Armor parts, splitting it into pieces.
"He split it!" Ruby screamed in horror.
Team Gaim all look in horror as Bravo dusts off his hands.
Ryugen: It split…
Bravo: C'est bon(Good)!
Mai looks angrily at Bravo before she notices something.
Mai: Hey, look!
"What? What does she see?" Ruby asked.
Bravo looks confused until he turns and around and is surprised to see the Suika Armor Parts forming back together as Gaim's head pops out.
"Wow. It can even pull itself back together." Yang said.
"How useful." Blake commented.
Gaim: This is my stage now!
"Heck yeah it is!" Ruby said.
"Show him what you got, Kouta!" Yang said.
Inside, the Suika Lockseed glows before something happens.
YOROI MODE!
Parts of the Armor Parts shifted around until they became armor. His shoulder pauldrons, chest armor, and the armor covering his upper thighs were watermelon colored; his arms were red while the legs were black. This is the Suika Armor Parts' Armor Mode. And the personal weapon is a double-bladed sword, the Suika Sojinto.
All of Team RWBY stared at awe at the Suika Arms, but none were more impressed than Ruby Rose.
"Sis! Are…Are you crying?" Yang asked when tears spilled down from Ruby's eyes.
"It's…its more beautiful than it was in the preview!" Ruby said, sniffing.
'Only Ruby.' WBY all thought as they shook their heads in amusement while Yang offered Ruby some tissues to blow into.
Bravo: Oh my.
"All in agreement that Bravo is fucked, say aye." Yang said.
"Aye."
"Aye."
"Watch your language." Guess who said that.
As if proving Yang's statement, Gaim goes and delivers a punch so hard that cartoonish eyes pooped out when Bravo was hit before he flew back a great distance.
Bravo: Dis Donc(Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)~!
The girls bursted out laughing at how Bravo was sent flying.
"Oh gods! Did you see those eyes!?" Yang said between laughs.
"And the way he cried when he was sent flying!" Ruby said. "Oh I love this show!"
The others were amazed at what happened and cheer for Gaim who rubs his armored head.
Ryugen: Alright! Awesome!
Gaim: It was nothing…
Suddenly, Gaim notices a surviving Elementary Inves on the stage; walking up to the Lockseeds Bravo had used to summon the Inves from earlier. It gathers them all up before it devours all of them.
"Oh that cannot be good." Ruby said, remembering what happened when an Inves ate a Lockseed.
The Inves glows before it kneels down and grows and grows until it a giant boar the size of a bus!
"Well, that's a big piggy." Yang commented.
Ryugen: Uh oh!
Seeing the new danger, Ryugen runs up to the Berserk Inves and opens fire, but his bullets barely do anything to it as it was making the Inves more annoyed than hurt. It went to pounce at the grape themed Rider when Gaim comes in and grabs it.
Ryugen: Kouta?
Gaim: Back off, Micchy! I'll handle him!
"With how big that Inves is, only Kouta can deal with it since he's in giant armor and all." Weiss said.
"Good thing the other people left or else things would get messy." Blake said.
The Berserk Boar Inves manages to push Gaim off of it and goes to attack, but Gaim block the attack and punches the Inves back. Meanwhile, Bravo gets back up and sees the Inves.
Bravo: Oh look at you, you beautiful beast!
"How is any of that beautiful?" Weiss asked.
"I don't think he's all in there." Yang said.
Bravo: Go! Get him!
The horns at the side of the Boar Inves glow before it fires energy disks at the Rider. Twirling his Suika Sojinto, Gaim blocks the attacks before rushing in and slices off one of the horns off before turning around and enters a deadlock with the Inves before it slashes upwards, taking off the rest of its armor before Gaim kicked the Inves back. Seeing that it might die if it kept fighting, the Inves turned tail and ran.
"Oh no! It's escaping!" Ruby said. "Get back here and fight the giant watermelon robot!"
"This is bad. If that Inves gets to the city, who knows what kind of damage it'll do!" Blake said.
"They need to go after it!" Weiss spoke out the obvious.
"I sense high speed chase coming in." Yang said.
Gaim: Wha…!? After him, Micchy!
Ryugen: Okay!
From inside, Gaim takes his Lockseed Vehicle in Lockseed mode before unlocking it and throwing it outside whgere it formed into the Sakura Hurricane for Ryugen to ride on.
Gaim: Use this!
ODAMA MODE!
Gaim transforms back into the Suika's Wrecking Ball mode and rolls after the Inves.
Ryugen: Thanks!
Ryugen says his thanks before getting on the Sakura Hurricane and drives after Gaim, leaving the team and Bravo.
Rat: Whoa, Micchy!
Gaim Member #1: Get 'im!
Bravo: Ara? Eh? Ara? Pourquoi(Why)…?
"Because people will be in danger of that Inves gets into the city." Weiss explained. "And I thought he was a soldier."
"He knows nothing about the Inves. Can't blame him for being confused." Blake said.
"True…"
Back with Gaim and Ryugen, the Inves runs as fast as it can while Gaim and Ryugen gave chase and were catching up. The Boar Inves crashes into a building, throwing debris everywhere as Gaim jumps out of the way while Ryugen barely makes it through before pulling out his Ryuhou.
Ryugen: Take this!
Ryugen open fired on the Berserk Inves as Ryugens attacks did much more damage now that the Boar Inves no longer had its armor protecting it and lessening the damage. The Boar Inves trips and falls over as Ryugen rides past it and comes to a stop.
YOROI MODE!
Gaim rolls up to the Inves before it jumps and transforms the Suika Arms back into Armor Mode. Once the transformation was done, Gaim 'slices' the Lockseed once.
SOIYA! SUIKA SQUASH!
"Here comes the finisher!" Ruby said as these were always they best parts.
Gaim spun his Suika Sojinto once, forming an energy watermelon before sending it at the Inves, trapping it. Gaim then jumps up, ready to finish this for good.
Gaim: Gonna slice you up!
The watermelon armor comes down and spins around the Suika Sojinto around, slashing all over the watermelon before with a downward slash, Gaim finished off the Inves as it exploded. From the smoke, Gaim jumps out, back to wearing his Orange Armor Parts as he skids to a stop with the Suika Lockseed in hand.
"That was awesome!" Ruby cheered.
"It was alright." Weiss said.
"Oh don't be like that Ice Queen. You know you liked what you saw." Yang said.
"How many times have I said to stop calling me that!?" Weiss said. "And word that last part differently!"
"I'm suddenly in the mood for some watermelon." Blake said with everyone agreeing.
Ryugen gets off the Sakura Hurricane and jogs up to Gaim.
Ryugen: Kouta, we did it!
Gaim: Heh!
Gaim and Ryugen: Yeah!
The two fist bump one another as Gaim look over the Suika Lockseed when a cry drew their attention. Turning, they saw Bravo who looked to be out of breath.
"Don't tell me he ran after them on foot." Weiss said.
"Well, it's not like he has a sweet ass motorcycle like Kouta." Yang said.
Bravo: How dare you, you amateurs!
Bravo runs up to them as the two Riders ready themselves for another fight. Bravo takes a moment to catch his breath before getting ready.
Bravo: Ouverture!
Suddenly, an alarm goes off from inside Bravo's suit. Closing his Lockseed to cancel his transformation, Oren pulls out a timer and gasps.
Oren: Oh dear me! I need to get back and bake those pie crusts!
Gaim, Ryugen, and RWBY: Oi.
RWBY all blink in surprise as they looked at the hand that they moved in sync with Gaim and Ryugen.
"Well, this is weird." Yang said as they all pushed their hands down.
"What made us do that?" Weiss asked.
"Who knows?" Blake said.
Funny music begins to play as Oren points at them.
Oren: I will get you for this!
Oren runs off, but soon trips. He quickly picks himself up.
Oren: Do not think you've beaten me!
With that said, Oren runs off at a surprising and very fast pace as Gaim and Ryugen relax.
Ryugen: He's not gonna learn, is he?
Gaim: I guess not.
"Probably." Weiss said, agreeing with Kouta.
"He sure can run though." Yang said as Blake nodded in agreement.
The scene changes to Sagara on the Beat Riders Hotline.
Sagara: Baron used to be tied for first, but they lost to Bravo. And since Gaim beat Bravo, they took all those points! And that puts Gaim in first place with a huge lead! Congratulation!
"Whoohoo! Team Gaim's in first place!" Ruby cheered.
"Looks Gaim was just one step ahead of Baron this time." Yang said.
The scene changes to Team Gaim all celebrating their their new ranking in being in first.
Chucky: Toast! Let's do a toast!
Gaim Member #1: Hey, where's Mai?
"She's right. Where is she?" Ruby asked.
Mitsuzane: Let's wait a bit.
Rat: I can't wait!
As the group talked with one another, Mai makes her appear, carrying a box.
Mai: Thanks for waiting!
Rat: You are late!
Mai: I'm sorry! Here you go! A cake to celebrate!
Everyone claps and cheers until Kouta notices something and gets up.
"What's got him so jumpy?" Yang asked.
Kouta: …wait, isn't this from Charmant?
"Oh, that explains it." Yang said.
"I'm surprised Mai actually got a cake from that man considering what he tried to do earlier." Weiss said.
Mai: What's wrong with Charmant? They make the best cakes!
Mai untied the strings that held the box before lifting up the lid to reveal a cake topped with tons of fruits.
Team Gaim: Whoa~!
"Damn! That looks good!" Yang said.
"I want some cake now." Ruby said.
While everyone is amazed at the cake, Kouta separates from the group and speaks to himself.
Kouta: That's a good point, but…
Mitsuzane: To being number one! Cheers!
Team Gaim: Cheers!
As the rest of the team toasts, Kouta looks at the propaganda slip and is surprised to see an image of Bravo posing.
"He put his Rider form in the propaganda slip…" Weiss said in disbelief.
"Hey. Whatever attracts customers." Yang said.
The team sets off some confetti's as some landed right on top of Kouta who drops the slip and angrily cries, testing the confetti off of him, but doing so makes him loses his balance as he falls down.
"Looks like Kouta won't be getting along with Oren anytime soon." Yang said.
"Let's see what's next!" Ruby said.
Narrator: Next time on Kamen Rider Gaim!
The first scene shows Mitsuzane and Kouta talking as the scene changes to show Mai hiding from an Inves in the Helheim forest.
Mitsuzane: Mai's in trouble!
"Why is Mai in that forest?" Ruby asked as they all knew how dangerous the forest is as it was an Inves next and all.
"She must have gotten there by accident." Blake guessed.
The next scene shows Baron saving Mai from an Inves before he looks down at Mai.
Kaito: Stop following me. You're slowing me down.
"Mai and Kaito together?" Yang said. "Well this should be interesting."
The next scene is Ryugen riding on a Rose Attacker as he and Gaim fights some Inves before the scene changes to show Mai bandaging up Kaito who was injured.
Mai: You and I have a different idea of strength.
"looks like Micchy's gonna get his own ride." Yang said.
"That's good. He can use that to get out once he finds Mai." Weiss said.
The next scene is Baron 'slicing' the Mango Lockseed he obtained from Episode 4.
"Hey! It's that Mango Lockseed he got form Episode 4!" Ruby pointed out.
"About time we see what it has to offer." Weiss said.
MANGO!?
FIGHT OF HAMMER!
Gaim in Pine Arms, Mai, and Ryugen all look at Baron's new form.
Baron: I will never yield to anyone, ever again!
Next Time: Baron's Newfound Power, Mango!
"Well, next episode should be interesting." Yang said.
"How are we on snacks?" Weiss asked.
"Still good." Blake said as the popcorn was especially good. They were gonna need a lot by the time they reached the movie.
"Then let's hurry up to the next episode!" Ruby said as she grabbed the remote and played the next episode.
And done! Whew! That turned out better than I thought. Looks like I've still got it! Hope you all loved today's chapter. Next time, the girls will witness Baron's Mango Arms. Two more episodes until the movie. Get hype! Until then, this has been Ashbel Longhart, signing out! Until the next ride!
