It occurred to me that I never posted the behind the scenes trivia to Act Two. Sorry about that for those who were interested in knowing what went on during the planning of this act but here it is for you all to read, hope you enjoy.

- Out of all the riders, Tara was the one that changed the most from concept to paper. Believe it or not she was meant to be the emotional centre of the group, someone to laugh with when times were good a shoulder to cry on when times were bad. However, through various rewrites she eventually turned into the trigger happy girlfriend kissing nut ball that she is today.

- Fury's role in this act was originally going to be filled by a rogue dopant named Shadow, but due to Fury's surprising popularity he ended up taking the spot.

- Alex was originally going to be captured along with Tara, she was switched out with Madison and Tara was left powerless.

- Cole originally was meant to save Alex and (at the point of planning) Tara on his own. Marcoh, Sarah and Tara were then added once many revisions no longer allowed for Cole to go in solo. Cole was also going to be given the Rock driver and memory by an image of Alice Darwin aka Kamen Rider Fata.

- Madison and Sarah's fates were originally going to be switched. Sarah was still going to get injured and become the Reptilian Dopant however instead it was going to be her that would loose her memories (due to her gaia memory destroying her mind, not by an outside force) and Madison that died.

- Fury at one point was actually going to be revealed as Madison's uncle, but I gave the poor girl some mercy and let that idea go.

- Once I had switched Madison and Sarah's fate, I had planned to have another rider (Magica) come in and be the one to erase Madison's memories however to keep the story self contained without the help of outside sources I decided to have Inertia be the one to do it instead.

I hope you've enjoyed this delayed look into the planning of Kamen Rider Xtreme and hope you all enjoy what's to come. Until then, stay the ride alive!
