[Super Hero Time]
Sam: And now we're up to world 3! After standing up to our nightmares in CLAW's World, and Beating the mess out of Elemental Monsters in Kage's world, we now find ourselves in an "Americanized" World of the Rider who "Counts the Medals." If you know who said rider is, and if you love him, then you're in for a treat. We present: OOO's World!
(Characters Featured are based on Kamen Rider OOO, by Shotaro Ishinomori)
In an office building, a middle-aged man takes a cake out of an oven installed on his desk. He puts the cake down, walking over to an old record player. He turns to his assistant, who's counting stacks of silver coins on the desk in front of her.
"Sadie, this is a very important date, don't you agree?"
The young woman wrote down the numbers on her notebook, before replying. She wore a black and white business attire; her brown hair tied by two chopsticks in her hair. She took her glasses off and turned around.
"It's a birthday for everyone, every day of every year." Sadie replied.
"But today is an extra special day, for an extra special person indeed…"
President Kensington started the old record that he played every day about this time, as he sung to it.
"Happy Birthday to you…Happy Birthday to you… Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday to you…"
He covered the chocolate cake in black frosting as he iced the top with white frosting.
"Happy Birthday to you…Happy Birthday to you… Happy Birthday Dear…"
Kensington reached for a small case in his pocket, opening it. He took the item out and set the Black coin under the title: "Happy Birthday Dear…" He then wrote in script: W-R-A-T-H"
"Happy Birthday…!" Kensington exclaimed. "To the Seventh Medallian; Wrath…!"
Chapter 7: The Decade, Medallians and the Sinless Man.
"You count the medals: One, Two and Three; Life goes on Anything Goes, coming up OOO!"
Sam, Rachael and C.J. stared at the Computer screen watching Kamen Rider OOO on Youtube.
"So this is this world's rider; A Japanese TV Show?" C.J. asked as he swallowed his pancake.
"I thought we were only travelling through Fanfic worlds, what happened?" Sam asked as he turned to Rachael.
Rachael took a sip of her coffee. "I have no idea; maybe there exists a Fanfic based on Kamen Rider OOO somewhere."
"Anyway, what's the deal with this world?" C.J. mentioned.
"Basically, 800 years ago, there were monsters called Greeed; who were born from ten Core Medals, which were designed from Man's desire. Kamen Rider OOO fights them obviously." Sam replied.
"But since this is assumed to be a fanfic world, anything could be different. We have to take that into consideration." Rachael added.
Outside in a nearby park a young boy, about twelve sits above in a tree, skimming through an Ipad. He wore a Red shirt with a white vest, black jeans and black dress shoes; an odd attire for a kid. He suddenly looked up, as if he sensed something and jumped out of the tree he was in.
"Hey Eric;" He called out. Who he was referring too was a young man sitting on a bench under said tree. He was roughly Sixteen years old, wearing a black and white shirt and a blue jacket. He also had torn blue jeans and white sneakers. He yawned and rubbed his sleepy blue eyes.
"What is it Pride?" Eric asked.
"A Sinner's loose." The kid replied. "Let's go."
Eric's attitude then changed suddenly as he leaped off the bench. He and the kid known as Pride ran off towards their target.
Once they get to the area, they find a mummified humanoid, beating a civilian onto the ground. Behind it, there were a few other civilians in a similar manner.
"A Sinner who targeting violence…?" Eric asked.
"You know what to do." Pride said, his right arm transforming into a red and black monster-like arm. It had two small red wings that were tipped green and orange towards the back. He clutched his fist, three different medallions emerging from his palm; a Red Hawk, Yellow Tiger, and a Green Grasshopper designed medals.
Pride tossed them to Eric and he in turn, strapped a black and blue belt around his waist. The belt had three slots that went across. Eric slid the medals inside the slots and pulled the circular scanner from the side of the belt.
"HENSHIN!" He called out as he waved the scanner across the belt.
"TAKA; TORA; BATTA: TA-TO-BA! TATOBA! TA-TO-BA!" The scanner recited. Holographic medals suddenly circled Eric as the Hawk, Tiger and Grasshopper Medals lined up in their order. They merged together, forming one medal that joined with Eric; this caused the rest of the armor to form around his body. The Head was based on the Hawk Medal, a red colored helmet with Green eyes. The Body was the Tiger Medal, Yellow in color armed with bladed gauntlets, representing Claws. Finally the Grasshopper Medal gave him Green legs, a zigzag pattern going down them.
Eric charged the Sinner as the two began to fight.
A few yards away stood a man, about mid-twenties. He wore a white shirt and a black jacket, with black pants and boots. His black hair was long and in a ponytail. He also wore sunglasses that covered his pitch black eyes . He stared at Pride with a deadly intent as Pride watched Eric fight.
"He has some of them…" The man said. "My Cores…"
The Sinner rolls on the ground, after taking a bit of a beating. He stood up and roared, the bandages shedding off of him. Under them, it revealed itself as a black lobster-like monster. The sudden transformation surprised Pride, scaring him in fact.
"Eric end this now!" Pride ordered.
Eric didn't know why Pride wanted it to end, nor did he question it. Eric took the scanner and rescanned the medals on his belt.
"SCANNING CHARGE!" the scanner announced. Green energy ran across the lines on his legs, transforming them into Grasshopper Legs. Eric knelt down and jumped a few feet into the air. As he lined himself up for a drop kick, three rings a Red, Yellow and Green ring appeared in front of him. He descended through all three, each amplifying the power of the kick. Eric kicked the Lobster Sinner and it exploded into a pile of silver medals.
Eric canceled his transformation as Pride ran up to the pile, picking up one of the Cell Medals.
"Just as I feared; damn." Pride said, annoyed.
"What's wrong?" Eric asked.
"I'll explain it later."
"Can we hear it as well?"
Eric and Pride looked up and saw Sam, C.J. and Rachael walk up to them.
"Who are you guys?" Eric asked.
"Tourist, trying to find a restaurant to eat at; do you know any good places?" Sam smiled.
A while later, Sam and his crew ended up at Eric's family owned restaurant: Cous Coussier, an international restaurant in the heart of Washington D.C. It's tradition that every week they decorate the restaurant in a different culture theme, as they're tourist from all over the world who visit DC every day. It's like taking a piece of their home and bringing it here."
"OK, so what's the story these 'sinners' that you guys were fighting?" Sam asked.
"Well according to Pride, about 800 years ago chaos covered the world. A young Alchemist decided to take it upon herself to somehow contain the sins of the world into Jewels she called Cores, as they represented the center of the evil in the world. However there was so much, she ended up making sets of 10 to hold each amount evenly.
"There were a total of 70 cores, each of them represented by a color, and three animals." Pride chewed on his cherry flavored Popsicle. "The Red ones contained Pride, Yellow ones contain Greed, Grey has Gluttony, Blue represents Lust, Green is related to Envy, and Purple represented Sloth."
"But what about that Lobster Sinner from earlier, I never fought one like that one."
"That's because, the last ten; the Black Medals, represent the most deadly of mankind's sins: Wrath."
"The seven deadly sins are represented by the Core Medals…" C.J. repeated.
"However, a group of thieves heard of these jewels, and broke into the storehouse one night to take them. Once they found them, their most powerful sins coincided with the power of the medals, creating me, and the other Six Medallians." Pride explained. "Once that alchemist found out, she fought with us and managed to take a Core from Greed, Envy and myself. She became the first OOO. She used the power of OOO to not only defeat us, but seal us inside a coffin, which you humans would call: Pandora's Box. She died due to the strain of the medals. In 2010, an archeologist found the tomb where the coffin was buried and unwittingly broke the seal, setting us free; only six of us were actually brought back."
"What about the seventh one?" Rachael asked.
"We all figured, that Wrath was the most hostile one out of all of us; we knew his violent tendencies would get us all killed, so we each took some of his cores away from him. I had one of them, but I lost it when we were resurrected. But I know for a sure fact, that the others have at least 2 to 3 of them."
"One more question; how did Eric become OOO in the first place?"
"Pride made a deal with my father." Eric admitted. "My father was the archeologist responsible for re-opening the coffin. The thing was that only a blood relative could re-open it."
"So that makes you the grandson of the Alchemist."
Eric nodded. "I'm the only one currently who can become OOO. And that's because I have no sins, allowing my body to-
"Wait hold on a sec." Sam interrupted. "You don't have any sins?"
Eric nodded again. "Before the coffin was opened, this was a sinless world. Once it opened, the evil spread around. OOO's power is keeping me safe from sinning, as it's what killed the alchemist; taking on the sins of the world, plus hers as well."
"Next thing you know he'll start calling himself Jesus." C.J. joked.
"Through our fights, we've discovered the identities of the other medallians." Pride got up and pulled his Ipad out of his schoolbag.
"Lust, is Teen pop artist Lisa Suzuki." Pride tapped on the picture showing a young Japanese pop artist, with blue streaked brunette hair, in a dress with different shades of blue. Next to that photo was the picture of a monster, with the head of a small orca, with violet colored eyes. Her body was black with suction cups going down her legs. She had a blue cape over her arms and she wore a purple eel around her neck like a necklace.
"Her little brother Gluttony serves as her bodyguard, George Suzuki." he slid the picture over, showing a tall muscular man with spiky Jet black hair, dressed in a grey colored tank top and black kakis. Next to that picture was a muscular monster, with the head of an elephant. His body was muscular like a gorilla, in addition to the steel plated armor that covered his chest and arms. His right arm was covered in black armor, while his right side was white, each based on rhinoceros heads.
"Next we have-
"Oh Pete honey." A feminine voice called.
Pride sighed. "Why now. I hate your mom Eric."
Eric chuckled. "Just go, she needs help with something only you can do."
Pride reluctantly got up and went towards the kitchen.
"Why did your mom call him Pete?" Sam asked curiously.
"When the medallians were brought into this world, Pride took more of a beating than the rest of the medallians it seems. Coincidentally, my mother and brother were in a car accident, and there was no hope for my brother. Pride, as a promise to my father, took over Pete's body to keep him alive, in addition to keeping track of the medallians whereabouts. Like the others, he forced to act as my little brother when we're around my mom. When we're in private or when we're around people who know about pride, he acts like his "Not-humble, arrogant" self.
Rachael giggled a bit. "That's so adorable."
"Back to the matter at hand though…" C.J. mentioned. "The fact that you fought with that lobster Sinner is proof that the seventh Medallian's back right?"
"Makes sense;" Eric said. "But what would he want though…?"
Sam thought for a second. "That's it!" he exclaimed.
"What's it?" C.J. asked.
"Remember the show we were watching this morning? What did the monsters want most of all?"
"Their powers back to be complete."
"And they would be…?"
Eric thought about it as well, even though he was oblivious to what they were talking about. "The core medals…"
"Eric got it." Sam said. "The question is, who would he go after first…?"
"ARE YOU READY!" the announcer asked the auditorium filled with fans
The crowd cheered Lisa's name until the Japanese pop sensation came dancing onto the stage. The Guitars and Drums getting ready to start. Even George joined in for this song.
"You count the medals 1,2 and 3
Life goes on Anything goes Coming up OOO!" George sung to the crowd.
The crowd roared as the music played with Lisa prancing around the stage. Now it was her turn to start:
"Iranai motanai yume mo minai
FUREE na joutai... sore me ii kedo!
"Kokkara hajimaru The show we're waiting for;
Count the medals 1, 2 and 3"
"Unmei wa kimi hottokanai
kekkyoku wa susumu shika nai
Michi naru tenkai Give me energy
Count the medals 1, 2 and 3"
"Daijoubu, ashita wa itsudatte Blank
jibun no kachi wa jibun de kimeru mono saa…"
"Oz! Oz! Oz! Oz! Come on!" George hyped up the crowd who cheered along with him.
"Anything Goes! sono kokoro ga atsuku naru mono
mitasareru monowo sagashite
Life goes on! honki dashite tatakau no naru
makeru ki shinai hazu!"
"sotogawa ni SUTEITASU motomenai de
uchi ni himeru jishin ga daiji"
"Yokubou zoushoku like no limit
Count the medals 1, 2 and 3."
"Sono sei wo kurabe narandatte
imi nakunai? ichi nekeshi you."
"You can be free from average
Count the medals 1, 2 and 3"
"daijoubu. minna to chigatte mo ii
betsubetsu sorezore dakara sou, kisekiteki…"
"Oz! Oz! Oz! Oz! Come on!" George and Lisa held their microphones to the crowd.
"Anything Goes! sono kokoro ga motomeru mono ni
shojiki ni nareba naru hodo
Life goes on! kasoku tsuite
tomerare nakute makeru ki shinai hazu!"
"True spirit of heart never give up
Tell your mind and soul never to give up!"
Lisa, George and their back up dancers began to dance to the music, before coming back with the lyrics.
"ichi kara no SUTAATO soko kara
tashizan wo tobashite kake zan de kakeagatte itte
Anything goes! Goes on..."
"Oz! Oz! Oz! Oz! Count the medals 1,2 and 3."
"Anything Goes! sono kokoro ga atsuku mono
mitaseraru mono wo sagashite
Life goes on! honki dashite tatakau no nara
makeru ki wa nai
Anything Goes! kasoku tsuite
tomarare nakute makeru ki shinai hazu!"
The crowd roared in approval as Lisa and her brother took deep breaths.
"Thanks so much for coming out to see us you guys, get home safely and have a good night!"
The audience clapped once more as they left the stage.
In the dressing room, Lisa fell back into the chair as she opened one of her drawers, filled with cell medals. She took a few of them and rested them on her chest, absorbing them.
"That crowd was tiring tonight." George sighed, transforming into Gluttony. "Lust, can we get some candy on the way home?"
Lisa, transforming into Lust turned her head. "Anything for you little brother; after all, you did do a great job out there tonight."
Gluttony hopped on the couch happily, slowly awaiting his cavity-threating treat
A knock on their door alerted the two to transform back into their human forms.
"Who is it?" Lisa asked sweetly.
The door opened revealing the man from earlier. "Can I have your autographs? I'm a huge fan."
"Sure thing, that's no problem." Lisa stood up and walked over to the man.
"And who am I making this out too handsome?" Lisa winked.
"To your biggest and oldest fan… Wrath." He smiled.
Lisa began to write it, but stopped when she wrote the "A" in "Wrath".
Wrath socked her in the stomach, to which she gagged. She fell back, clutching her stomach tightly.
The man opened his hand revealing a Black Crab Core Medal. "Thanks for holding it for me."
"Glut…ony. Run now…!" Lisa said through the pain.
George looked at Lisa and then back at the Man.
"No one hurts Lust!" George transformed into Gluttony and charged the man.
The man smirked, and in a flash of black light, the dressing room exploded.
"Sorry, I guess I didn't know my own strength. After all; it has been over 800 years since I've used it." The man laughed. He emerged out of the room, in his Medallian form. He was black and silver, His head was as a Scorpion, the tail extending from the back of the head. His eyes were shaped like a visor, being Yellow in color. His gauntlets were armed with crab pincers and his legs had thin lobster-like legs going down on them like spikes.
Wrath opened his hand counting four of his core medals in total. Why he had his full armor though, was because he absorbed Lust and Gluttony's medals as well.
"I wonder who's next on my list…" He asked himself.
"Well well well. It's been a while hasn't it Wrath…"
"I recognize that voice anywhere." Wrath said with a little disappointment in his voice. "It has been, Greed."
Greed, in his human form was a young teen, dressed in a yellow and white checkered shirt, with a black T-Shirt under it. He wore torn jeans and white sneakers. His blonde hair was covered by the black cap on his head. He picked up his black and yellow skateboard and walked closer to Wrath.
"I've been doing a little snooping and I think I know who has your other Medals…" Greed said.
"Do you now?" Wrath reverted to his human form. "Take me to them."
"If you insist leader…" greed smiled as he dropped his skateboard and rode out of the hallway, Wrath slowly following…
