Decade
Surprise! Yup, Parasite Eve: Resonance Till Evolution is where Kabuto's World takes place…and thus the two fics tie in together and this is where this chapter picks up where chapter 26 of Parasite Eve left off. This will be action-packed and this is where the five DDS students fight for their very lives as Decade intends to kill Kyuu and has no intention of leaving any witnesses alive.
Something is odd about Decade, as at first he has second thoughts about killing every Kyuu he finds, but now he's becoming a cold-blooded murderer. Well, that's because he's been controlled somehow…or so we think. But right now let's cap things off and let the battle begin.

At the wreckage of the Shibuya financial district, Decade stood in front of the three DDS students and is taking his pick on who he should take out first before proceeding in finishing off Kyuu Renjou. He knew that he can go straight for the Class Q leader but this might also allow his friends to witness it even though it won't change anything. Still he felt that he should test out the data cards he collected after killing every "champion" from the dimension he passed by and he might as well have a little fun.
"So…who wants to die for that Renjou? How about you…the twin brother of Kyuu? I just killed your parallel counterpart 28 hours ago. Though once is enough, still a Kyuu is a Kyuu, regardless of whatever version I encounter…and Kyuu must die…no matter what."
Kyo was ticked that this stranger is willing to kill anyone who resembled his elder twin brother and realized that he means business and so he decided to go first and face him. He is not willing to let harm befall Kyuu and gets right on to business.

Gamma Phone: "STANDING BY…"
"So you're going to kill every Kyuu you find? What are you? Some kind of bounty hunter or something??? And what if there are no more Kyuu's left? Where's the justification in that???"
"A Kyuu is still a Kyuu…whether he's a kid, an adult or an infant…he must die. Got a problem?"
"Yeah…I'm going to kick your asshole back to where you came from! Rider Change!"
As soon as Kyo inserts the Gamma Phone o the holster of the Gamma Belt, he transformed in to his armored form of Mask Rider Gamma and proceeded to go after Decade, activating the Gamma Edge, and a laser saber was formed. Seeing this Decade welcomed the challenge and took out a data card and inserted it on the top of his belt, and assumed Hibiki's form. The two then got into a fisticuff but to everyone's surprise, Decade excelled more in the punching contest that even Gamma was having a hard time catching.
Ryu: "Kyuu…did you see that…?"
Kyuu: "Yeah…and that form…it's just like in my dream about meeting the Oni…!"
"Hibiki" took out another data card and inserted it on his belt, and he gained access to Hibiki's taiko, and a sword fight ensued between the taiko and the laser saber, and this is where Gamma excelled though "Hibiki" gained the edge as he inserted another card, accessing to Hibiki's final form, the "Hibiki-Soukou". Seeing this, Gamma pressed the "ENTER" button and goes for his ultimate attack, the "Emerald Sparkle Cut". However "Hibiki-Soukou" has a counter-attack in the form of the Ongekida KiShin Kakusei, which involves a gigantic blade of fire purtroudes from the blade of the Armed Saber. It can extend to over 100 feet in length, allowing for powerful long range attacks. As the two attacks collided, Gamma went for another, but Hibiki did the same and it went through Gamma's attack and it connected, hitting the younger Renjou that sent him slamming against the wall of a shop, and he fell to the ground, his Gamma Phone detached and he reverted back to normal, weakened and badly hurt.

Three blocks away, Class G decided to head back to the three boys as they thought they needed escort in leaving Shibuya, but then heard a loud explosion and sensed something was wrong, so they head back to where Kyuu and the others are, hoping that they are alright.

Ryu did the same transformation sequence that Kyo did and became Mask Rider Orga. And activated his ultimate weapon, the Stlanzer, in which he has a bladeless hilt and when activated a long-ranged laser blade is formed and went for a slicing attack. Hibiki realized that he was no match for Orga and reverted back to his Decade form and took out what appeared to be a "black book" and tinkered with it, and it assume gun mode. He opened fire but his ammo didn't deter his black-armored attacker so he devised a "divide and conquer" strategy.
He inserted another card and and took the form of the Zodiac Fighter, Red Futogoza (Gemini), and inserted another data card inside his belt, which summoned Futogoza's Digimon fighter, Dragredder, a Digimon resembling a huge, Chinese red dragon. As Dragredder attacks the black-armored Class Q member, "Futagoza" took out another data card and inserted again inside his belt and assumed Kiva's form, and then inserted another data card, and he gained access to Kiva's final attack: the Darkness Moon Break. As "Kiva" hovers to the air, Orga didn't notice the inpending atack as he was still busy fending of the red Chinese dragon. Kyuu saw this and warned his friend.
"Ryu!!! Look out above you!!!"
Looking up Orga was surprised to see "Kiva" chargng down with a high-speed flying kick, and the distraction allowed Dragreder to grab its prey and threw him towards "Kiva", and "Kiva" executed the attack that sent Orga slamming against a wall and pinned him there, letting him go seeing the armored Class Q member falling down and reverted back to normal. Reverting back to Decade's form, the assailant now set his sight on Kyuu.
"Looks like no one's going to save you now...Renjou. Like the other Kyuu's before you, they all die at my hands."
"What do you want from me??? I never know you or encountered you...why do you want me dead??!!!
"You represent many things I hate...and a "prophet" ordered me to...it's his will and I cannot disobey. Regardless...you must die at my hands...so that the prphecy will be fulfilled..."
At that point Class G arrived and stood in front of Kyuu, activating their "A" Buckles and armored up, and their projection walls sent him crashing to the ground and he sees more obstacles before him that needs to be shattered.
"More hindrance...can't you see that??? Kyuu Renjou must be killed...in order for the prophecy to be fulfilled...I already killed seven...and with three more to go, I must fulfill my destiny to re-made the world all over..."
"You're just a psychopath that needs to be sent to the mental institution! Either you leave him alone or turn yourself in!"
"Your death wish, then..."
Decade took out another data card and inserted it on his belt and assume Blade's form. Again he took out another data card and inserted it on top of his belt, and "Blade" upgraded to "Jack Form" which he "sprouts wings" and his armor had added layers. Drawing his Blayrouser he spread his wings and flew around and went far but made a 180 degrees turn ad is heading for the three armored Super GALS, and the three draw their weapons. Larc opened fire but Blade blocked it with his Blayrouser and executed the "Lightning Slash", and despite Lance and Glaive blocking with their weapons the impact was so strong that it sent the three girls colliding against a parked car, and in an instant they were knocked out and de-armored.
Reverting back to "Decade mode", Decade confronted his real target, who just changed to Mask Rider Beta. Beta then activated his laser saber while Decade took out what appeared to be a black book and tinkered with it, and moments later it took a form of a broadsword and the two clashed blades. Kyuu was clearly overwhelmed as his opponent has more experience in fighting than him, though the armored Class Q member didn't give in and fought back valiantly, but then Decade did a thrust kick and Beta was reeling back, giving him room to take another data card out and inserted it inside his belt and assume TheBee's form, and this surprised the Class Q leader and went for a sword slash attack, but then "TheBee" activated the "Rider Sting" and stabbed his opponent on his ribs, and this sends him crashing against a bus which exploded and Beta thrown off, landing on the pavement, his phone detached and he reverted back to normal.
"Now you're mine...say goodbye, Renjou...you will join the other Kyuu's shortly..."
Raising his left forearm, "TheBee" is poised to deliver the deathblow, but then something unexpected happened. A green-colored steam locomotive appeared out of nowhere and rammed the assailant before stopping, sending "TheBee" crashing towards several parked vehicles and his landing was quite afar. Out came a mysterious person in a green armor with yellow accents and design. His eyes were as big as a bug and he stood in front of the five injured DDS students and slowly picked up Kyuu.
"You okay? Good thing we predicted where Decade is heading. If we were late, it'd be the end of you. Stay still while I deal with your assailant."
"Who are you? You know that guy?? What does he mean he'll kill me like the other Kyuu's???"
But then Decade got up and return to the battle field, assuming Agito's Burning form while he took a picture of his new attacker, who is identifed as Zeronos. Zeronos saw this and anticipated his attacker's assault and brought out his primary weapon called the Zero-Gasher, in which he tinkered it and assumed "Sword Form". There Zeronos uses his weapons to block Agito's weapon, the "Shining Caliber", and you can hear the swords loud clashing sound and the two wouldn't back away. "Burning Agito" tries the Burning Punch but Zeronos blocks it with the Zero-Gasher. Seeing that he couldn't afford to let Kyuu escape he keeps his opponent busy while using his belt to copy his opponent's data. After succeeding he backed away as he tok out another data card from the right side of his belt where a "book" was located. He then reverted back to default mode and is ready to initiate his new transformation.
Before Decade could insert the card inside his belt Zeronos' partner, Deneb, jumps toward him and grappled with the assailant while preventing the data card from going inside the belt and then shouted at Zeronos on what he just found out which soon make sense on how the other Kyuu's were killed in a shocking fashion.
"Boss!!! I figured it out! This guy's belt has a built-in camera of sorts! It took pictures of his opponent and turn them in to data cards! Once he inserts the cards inside his belt he can assume the form of whatever data his card has! Get him while I hold him!!"
Ralizing that his secret's been blown, Decade kicked Deneb on his groin and broke free, though he drops the data card containing Zeronos' data but had no time to pick it up as Zeronos charges in. Raising pointing fingers from both his hands, he motions "Auto Vajin" and Dragredder to go after his opponent and Kyuu. Seeing this Zeronos uses his body to protect the injured Class Q leader while absorbing the attacks. As the attack rages on, Decade found the data card containing Zeronos' info and is ready to use it.
"Thanks to you I can now finish you off using your data. After this I'll be killing two more Kyuu's and soon the world will be without a great detective...and crime will flourish throughout all time and space..."
Before all is set and go, the steam locomotive started to move and a pair of missile launchers popped out. Then it fired missiles that hit Decade and send him careening against a shop which exploded. Then more missiles were thrown in and Decade lost touch of his latest data card but he couldn't afford to let himself get caught so he was forced to retreat by teleporting away.
After ensuring that Decade is gone Zeronos and Deneb helped up the five DDS students while firing flares to summon help. Then the Zero-Liner departed and went towards the dimensional warp to find Decade's whereabouts. As the paramedics arrived to assist the injured teens, Kyuu and the rest were baffled on what just happened and they all wondered who Decade is and why is he obsessed in killing Kyuu.
To Be Continued...
Hope this was worth the wait. And luckily...this Kyuu survived the massacre thanks to a good samaritan, though he isn't the only one, as the real Hibiki also survived.
Preview:
Next...Den-O's World. This is where Zeronos comes in and calls in a partner to help track down Decade and try to save that world's Kyuu.
