Due to the commotion of the battle, neither Kamen Rider Build nor Cross-Z heard the blaring sirens going off around the compound. Build turned to Cross-Z and said, "Well, this will be fun", his smirk being concealed by his helmet. "Indeed", responded Cross-Z. To their left, the two riders heard a stampede of different soldier-based Kamen Riders heading toward them. The duo ran to the opposite end of the hallway and made a left with their backs across the wall. As Build looked carefully from the side of the wall he saw a Kurokage trooper running to the door of the Mission Control Center; and once he arrived, more followed. "This is where Zangetsu's signal was emanating from before it cut out", the trooper stated before trying to open the door. A second Kurokage trooper, noticing that the first one's attempts at opening the door were failing, mentioned, "The door is probably either jammed or sabotaged. Stand back, I'll give it a Sparking". As the second trooper prepared to use his cutting blade to slice his pinecone-based lockseed, the first put his hand up and commanded, "Wait!" The second trooper, clearly displeased, said distastefully, "What?". "Do you guys hear that", said the first trooper as he put his head toward the door. Unbeknownst to the Kurokage troopers outside the Mission Control Center, Kamen Rider Gaim was preparing a powerful blast from his DJ Gun which utilized the full power of the Kachidoki lockseed; and what they were hearing was the standby music for it. The trooper who was listening knew exactly what it was and yelled, "Get back now!". The troopers dispersed quickly and were silent until they heard the sound they were waiting for, "KACHIDOKI CHARGE!". The door to the Mission Control Center blew open and slammed on the wall across from the room. Out of the smoke came Kamen Rider Gaim who was exiting the room. The Kurokage troopers went over to Gaim and asked, "Kamen Rider Gaim, are you okay? Is Zangetsu okay? What happened?" Gaim held up his hand and stated, "One, I am fine. Two, Zangetsu is fine but unconscious. And Three, where are Build and Cross-Z?" By that point in time, Build and Cross-Z had decided to stop watching and began attempting to navigate the safest way out of the base.
"Blake", Build said as the two riders ran into one of the learning centers on the base, "You should deactivate your armor and get out of here. I'll distract the others, so you can make your escape". Cross-Z turned to face Build and replied, "No, I'm not leaving you. You had my back and you are my friend. Also, why should I take off my armor?". Build picked up two desks, one in each hand, barricaded the door with them and stated, "After Kabuto defected, Dan and the executive branch of the UFE decided it would be best to put trackers in all of the Kamen Rider armors, so that if another rider defected they can be tracked". Cross-Z looked down at his belt and pulled out the Cross-Z Dragon from the driver and transformed back into Blake. Blake then removed the dragon fullbottle from Cross-Z Dragon and let it leave his hand and fly out the window. "However", Build began as he went towards the windows to close their blinds, "Kabuto and the other renegades have found a way to deactivate these trackers, so I'm sure you'll find a way to do so as well". Blake looked up at Build confused, "Are you saying I should join Kabuto and the rest of the traitors?". Build shook his head in a negative fashion, "No. What I am saying is that if he could deactivate the tracker, so can you". Blake nodded but remained firm in his belief that both he and Build should stick together. "Okay, so then why don't you take off your armor and we can leave together? We clearly work well together, as evidenced by our success at getting around Gaim", Blake suggested. Seeing that Blake was not getting the big picture, Build pushed him against a wall and whispered, "Do not ever think that as of this point in time you are strong enough to take down a council member. We are extremely lucky that we even survived that disaster. Now listen carefully. The reason I remain in this armor is so that I can lead them away from you; my value as a defecting council member is much higher than a Class 2 Kamen Rider like you". "Oh", Blake murmured, realizing that Build's plan was well thought out. "But, Andrew, if they can track your armor, how haven't they found us yet?", asked Blake. Build then took a step back and realized that Blake brought up a good point and responded, "I'm not sure but nevertheless you need to get out of here now". Right when Build finished his sentence, he looked out the tiny square window on the door to see if the coast was clear, pushed the desks he stacked aside, opened the door, and gently threw Blake out of the room.
Just as quickly as Blake was thrown out of the room was the door quickly shut and barricaded once again as Blake heard Build moving the desks behind the door. The young man began running down empty corridor after empty corridor, doing his best to remain out of sight of patrolling Kurokage troopers, Riottroopers, and ZECT troopers. As Blake was about to turn the corner of the seventh hallway he found himself in, he felt two arms grab his fleece jacket and hold him against the wall. Quickly recovering from being dazed by the impact, Blake recognized the individual holding him as Lauren, Kamen Rider Fuma. "What in the hell are you two doing? Did Jason send you?", Lauren whispered, albeit in an angry enough tone that could be construed as yelling. Blake, confused by the barrage of the questions, responded, "What? No, Andrew and I made this decision on our own". Lauren glared at the young man and looked toward the hallway and asked, "So, where is Andrew?". "Why should I tell you? We are trying to escape you know?", responded Blake. "And I know you well enough to know that you have no idea where you're going", Lauren stated with a grin and comedic inflection in her voice. Blake frowned, "How do I know I can trust you?". The young woman tilted her head and responded, "Great question, you first". Deciding that the best possible outcome for him would be to confide in Lauren, Blake told her, "Andrew is hoping to create a distraction and get the other riders' attention via having them follow the tracker in his armor". Lauren, content that Blake seemingly trusts her, let go of him and said, "That plan isn't going to work, I sabotaged the computer system specified to the trackers in our suits". Blake, surprised by her knowledge of the trackers, asked Lauren, "How do you know about the trackers? I just learned about them like 7 minutes ago". Noticing that Blake, unbeknownst to even himself, had raised his voice, Lauren quietly told him, "Keep your voice down! And, to answer your question, Jason expected that Dan would put trackers on us because that's what he would've done; so, he told me about it and sure enough I found the system". "Wait! You're with Jason?", Blake accused. Lauren responded, "Uh yeah, Dan has clearly lost his marbles and is acting way out of character". Blake defended, "Well, duh, he lost his fiancé. I'm sure if you lost someone you loved, you'd be acting differently". "I concede to that, but that gives no excuse for his behavior, like ordering Verde to attack both you and Andrew. Now do you want to get out of here or not?", retorted the woman. Blake leaned his back against the wall, rested his hand by his chin, and began thinking. Upon hearing the incoming footsteps of soldier-based Riders, the young man quickly concluded his thinking and told Lauren, "Okay, let's go". Lauren smiled, grabbed onto Blake's arm, and the two began running down the hall.
"Um, where exactly are we going?", Blake asked as both he and Lauren had spent the last 6 minutes navigating the base. Lauren, whose back was now against a wall, signaled for Blake to join her and responded, "Before we leave I have to get something from the armory". "Wait!", Blake began, "Why didn't you mention that earlier? Last time I checked I don't have the luxury of making pit stops". Looking down the hall and at the entrance to a hanger, Lauren began walking forward and quietly said, "Jason needs me to grab something for another Rider; so, stay close and be quiet, we have to go through the Special Containment Hanger". As the two Kamen Riders crept their way into the hanger, a confused expression appeared on Blake's face. As the young man looked around, he saw a redesigned and renovated airplane hanger that no longer supported the expediting of aircrafts or other vehicles. Furthermore, Blake saw at the far end of the hanger two containment pods, both tilted at 45-degree angles, that contained what he thought to be criminals. "Where are the rest of the criminals?", whispered Blake. Lauren whispered back, "As I said before, this is the Special Containment Hanger, not the normal Containment Hanger. This place is for those who are so dangerous they have to be cryogenically frozen". Before the duo could begin to cut through the hanger to get to the armory, they heard two distinct voices coming towards them. "When did they find him Odin?", asked one voice. The other voice, which belongs to the man named Odin, responded, "Last week Kamen Rider Snipe mentioned how he felt something calling to him; so, he and Kamen Rider Zolda travelled to the source of the calling, Antarctica. Once the two of them landed, they stated that the ground beneath their feet began to shake and a green light reached out to the sky from the cracks in the ground. And then, he appeared". By this point in the conversation, both Blake and Lauren could see the two men clearly; they were the two known gods to exist in the world, Odin and Poseidon. Both gods were clad in their Kamen Rider armors, Odin in his phoenix-based advent Rider armor and Poseidon in his sea creature inspired armor derived from the power of the Same, Kujira, and Ookamiuo core medals. The two gods surrounded one of the containment pods and had their backs turned away from the two UFE traitors behind them. Lauren leaned by Blake's ear and whispered, "Okay we have to be very careful, so I suggest you stay here and out of sight while I grab what I need from the armory". Before Blake could give a response that would counter Lauren's idea, Kamen Rider Poseidon turned toward them and stated, "You do know that we can hear you mortals, tis the gift of being omniscient?". Lauren, realizing that the best way to get around this predicament was to appeal to the gods' sense of nobility, revealed herself and bowed before them. Blake soon followed; however, upon noticing the Kamen Rider Odin was one of the 13 Advent Riders, put his hands behind his head as he kneeled to the ground. The Advent Rider gave a loud chuckle and motioned with his hand for them to rise. "I would say that based on the young man's demeanor that you two are in trouble", Odin remarked. Lauren quickly responded, "Yes, your lordship. We humbly request that you do not reveal our location to the others". Poseidon stepped forward, "Relax mortals, we only serve ourselves. Not the whims of a man who has lost his love". Blake began bowing repeatedly in a ridiculous fashion, saying, "Oh thank you so much! Thank you! Thank you!". Both gods began to laugh hysterically from Blake's demonstration of immense gratitude. After the two deities calmed down, Odin asked, "Although I appreciate a good laugh, it is time we ask you a serious question. How much did you hear of our conversation?". "Just a little bit…", Lauren began to lie but soon cut herself of as she looked at the other containment tube. Blake followed Lauren's eyes and went to the tube and began to wipe away the condensation from the outside of the tube. As Lauren joined his side, Blake's eyes widened with shock and he yelled, "That's Kuuga! They froze Kuuga!". Lauren turned to face Odin and Poseidon and asked, "Why?". Odin began, "The idea of freezing Kuuga belonged to Dan, and after Kuuga's 'outburst', I can't say I blame him". After remembering the event that Odin was referring to, the young woman conceded and nodded. Poseidon chimed in and stated, "I suggest you two get where your trying to go, I can sense others coming this way". Both mortals nodded and left through the other door in the hanger that led directly to the armory.
As the two Riders made their way to the armory, the repercussions of their actions began to dawn on them as more sirens were activated. "Not to be rude, but could we maybe hurry this up, I actually want to be able to hear things when we escape", remarked Blake. Lauren responded by rolling her eyes and sprinting down the path to the armory; Blake quickly followed. Once the duo entered the armory, they were both blown away by the amount of weaponry and technology encompassing the room. "Okay, so what exactly are we looking for?", inquired Blake. Lauren answered, "What Jason is looking for is the Peach Energy Lockseed and a Genesis Driver". An overexaggerated laugh caught the two Riders off guard as they turned around to see a young Filipino man in a wheel chair slowly rolling up to them. "You know, I was wondering why Aisha left here without her destined driver", stated the young man. Lauren's mouth dropped as she realized who the man was, "Jed?", she asked, "Is that you?". Jed nodded the affirmative. Blake's eyes widened as he asked, "Jed? As in Kamen Rider Decade? That Jed?". Jed nodded again and said, "Yep, it is I, and I'm guessing by the looks of shock, horror, and sorrow on your faces that you had no idea of my condition". Lauren answered, "I heard that you were injured, but I didn't know that it was this bad". Jed moved closer to Lauren and Blake and explained, "During the incident, I was struck in the back pretty hard and when I regained consciousness I could barely feel my legs. The doctors say there is hope that I can regain the use of my legs fully, but I'm not sure". Blake had a confused expression on his face and said, "Hold on a second! I saw you last week and you seemed fine then". Jed smiled and stated, "Sometimes when I'm in my armor I gain back a decent amount of control in my legs, but only for a few minutes. Other times, I ask Kamen Rider Build to use his Legend Rider Fullbottles to disguise himself as me for longer periods of time. Surprisingly, many people don't look at the driver of a Kamen Rider". Blake understood and nodded in response. "Anyway", said Jed with a smile, "it seems you two are running away and, from what I can tell, Dan is pretty pissed off right now". Lauren became serious, "Look Jed, I know you don't owe us anything…". Before Lauren could finish her request, the man in the wheelchair held up his hand to silence her and stated, "Just get the driver and lockseed and get out of here". Both Blake and Lauren smiled in response. Lauren turned to Blake and asked, "I think I see them over there, can you get them I have to ask Jed something?". Blake responded by walking over to where she pointed. A surprised look came upon Jed's face, "What question do you have for me Lauren?". "I'm actually not sure", Lauren retorted and pulled out an envelope, "Jason told me to keep it sealed in here in case this event happened, and I could find you". Jed took the envelope, opened it, and began to read. The young man's smile faded, and he took the letter and tore it up. "When you see Jason, tell him I say 'yes'". Lauren nodded and bowed. Blake came back with the lockseed and driver and the two left the armory, each waving goodbye to Jed.
