Kamen Rider OOO. The three things that happened last time:

One: Ankh and Gotou are stressed while Eiji and Ankh meet with Cream, Cheese, and Vanilla.

Two: A surgeon who likes surgery is possessed by a Yummy.

And Three: Ankh abandons Roll's brother while the Medajalibur breaks!


"Check his vital lines."

"Hai!"

"Opening his T-shirt."

"Hai!"

"Did you check his medical history?"

"Checking now."

"Papillary light reflex is the same in both eyes."

"Hai!"

"Hai!"

"Check his pulse."

"Hai!"

"Oniichan!" Roll gasped as she ran in, stopping beside Cream.

"Is Mr. Ankh your brother?" Cream asked, gulping.

"Measuring his blood pressure."

"Hai, but his name is Daisuke," Roll corrected, 'Ankh, you son of a goddamned bitch!' "What is this?-! This can't be happening, Oniichan."


"I want to perform surgery…Let me do it!"

"What…was that?" the Director gulped before grabbing his chest in pain.

"Director!" a nurse called before he collapsed, "Sensei!"


"Roll-chan! Cream-chan!"

"Eiji-kun/Mr. Eiji!"

"Where's Ankh?-!" Eiji and Roll asked.

"He's not with you?-!"

"So he didn't come back. Looks like he just snapped after all he's endured recently," Eiji explained.

"Mr. Eiji, what's going on? Mr. Ankh is right there," Cream gulped.

"No. Cream-chan, I'd better explain it better to you. That is Daisuke Sakurai, Roll-chan's big brother. Ankh is a Kaijin that's been possessing him, making sure he stayed alive."

"Oh my…" Cream gasped.

"Eiji-kun, Ankh said that if he's separated…Oniichan will…"

"He should be okay for a bit now that he's in the hospital, but if he's away too long…"

"Sensei!"

"Oniichan!"

"Ready the DC!"

"Okay!"

Roll buried her head into Eiji's shirt with Cream. Neither girl was comfortable at seeing Daisuke starting to flat line. Eiji slowly moved the two out.

"Pulse?"

"Not yet. BR plus."

"Prepare a CC."

"Hai!"

"Will the family members please wait outside?" a nurse asked.

"Already taking care of it," Eiji replied.

"Arigatou."

"It's charged."

"Move away."

"Hai!"

"Clear!"


"Cream-chan, can you take Roll-chan to see Vanilla-sama?" Eiji asked while Roll sat nearby, hugging her knees to her chin, as Rouge rubber her back gently.

"Uh-huh, Mr. Eiji," Cream nodded.

"Rouge and I'll go find Ankh. Roll-chan, stay with Cream-chan for now. She'll take you to Daisuke-san once his operation is done."

"H-Hai…"

"Vanilla-sama told me this: 'Having someone dear by one's side gives one power,'" Eiji quoted, "This is pretty true."

"Director, can you hear me?"

"The Director!" Rouge gasped.

"It's you from before!" The Director gasped as he grabbed Rouge's arm, "What was that?"

"Talk later!" a nurse snapped as she forced him to let go…only for him to grab her once more.

"Please tell me…why did that happen?"

"It was a monster," Rouge replied, "One created from Desire."

"A monster? Created from Desire?"

"Her desire to perform surgery was just so strong…It's the only explanation I can give for why it latched on to her."

"It can't be…I…didn't allow her to perform surgery…"


"I must…perform surgery…" Tamura gasped as she walked down a dark hallway, her claws raking the side of a wall, "Surgery!"


You count the Medals! One, two, and three! Life goes on! Anything goes! Coming up OOO!

*The screen changed to the Taka, Tora, and Batta Core Medals in a triangle. It cut to a series of shots of OOO with a ring going over his body, showing a Combo Part. It then cut to a far shot of OOO transforming before cutting to Eiji tossing a coin into the air. He caught it and put it into a Vendor, transforming it into the Ride Vendor. It opened up and transformed into the Ride Vendor. It then cut to OOO driving off on it as the title appeared*

Iranai montanai yume mo minai (Don't bother with dreams that are unnecessary or fleeting)

*It cut to a walking shot of Roll approaching the screen to the left before cutting to Ankh approaching from the right*

Free na joutai sore mo ii kedo (It's fine to just be completely free)

*It cut to a far shot of Eiji hanging up a pair of his boxers in the middle of a semi-grassy land*

Koko kara hajimaru! What you've been waiting for! Count the Medals! One, two, and three! (It stars now!)

*It cut to Eiji lying down beside the baby carrier holding a sleeping Echo before a ghostly glowing Ankh began to do the worm before the screen. It cut to a close up of Ankh's hand showing the Taka, Tora, and Batta Medals*

Unmei wa kimi hottokanai (But you can't ignore fate)

*It cut to Eiji looking over at his daughter to see her awake and teething on the Taka Medal*

Kekkyoku wa susumu shika nai (In the end, all you can do is keep moving forward)

*It cut to a far shot of Roll with a close shot of the Tora Medal sitting upright on a rock before cutting to a far shot of Shadow with the Batta Medal in front of the camera, standing upright in a pile of garbage*

Michi naru tenkai! Give me energy! Count the Medals! One, two, and three! (Mysterious turn of events!)

*It cut to a rotating shot of Roll, Eiji, and Shadow all holding one of the coins as a ghostly glowing Ankh doing the worm before the screen once more. It cut to Ankh first holding the Taka Medal between two fingers before cutting to him holding the Taka and Tora Medals and then to him holding all three*

Daijoubu! Ashita wa itsu date Blank (It's okay! Tomorrow's always a blank slate)

*It cut to a soaring shot of the Greed on the beach in the completed forms. It then cut to Roll chasing after Ankh before a red curtain-like fabric blocking her from the screen. It cut to her grabbing it and pulling it away, revealing Ankh had vanished. It then cut to a pile of Cell Medals with Ankh grabbing them hastily*

Jibun no kachi wa jibun de kimeru mono saa (You're the one who decides what your worth is)

*It cut to Sonic racing along Green Hill Zone before it shattered, revealing Eiji looking down at the three Core Medals with Shadow, Roll, and Ankh's back to him. It then cut to him scanning them in the OOO's driver with a cry of 'Henshin!'*

OOO! OOO! OOO! OOO! Come on!

*It cut to a coin showing scene of the chapter before cutting to OOO riding his Ride Vendor*

Anything goes! Sono Kokoro ga atsuku naru mono (Anything goes! Fire up that heart!)

*OOO drove off before cutting to a close up of Eiji's gloved hand as sand fell off it to reveal the Medals. It then cut to Eiji becoming OOO's TaToBa Combo*

Mitasareru mono wo sagashite (Find something to fulfill you)

*It cut to a Taka Cell Medal with a head shot of Gotou looking to the left for a side shot before cutting to Satonaka looking at him with the back of a Cell Medal to the screen before cutting to Bark sitting on a couch with Bean as Echo giggled in the polar bear's lap at Bean's antics of annoying Ankh*

Life goes on! Honki dashite! Tatakau no nara (Time to get serious! If you are going to fight)

*It cut to OOO activating the Tora Claws before jumping up. It then cut to Roll hugging the red fabric before cutting to the other side, showing Ankh being hugged by Roll through the fabric, giving a strange expression*

Makeru ki shinai hazu (Then don't worry about losing)

*It cut to the Greed walking out from behind their own colored fabrics, all the same color as the fabric before cutting to OOO inserting three Cell Medals into Caliburn and activating the Triple Scanning Charge. He swung it down, creating a large sand explosion that sent Cell Medals flying all about and covering the screen with the dust. The three Cell Medals spun before ending at the front of the screen with the Taka Medal at the left and the Batta Medal at the right*


Count the Medals! Currently, how many Medal can OOO use? Twenty-three.


Medal 14: Pride, Surgery, New-Old Sword.


"Do we have to eat them all?" Takeru groaned.

"Yes," Wave replied, watching him on his seventh cake while she was on her fourteenth.

"And she does this every day?" Takeru paled.

"Yep. I think that's why she has that figure of hers," Wave replied, "These cakes are really nutritious."

"That is correct! No employee of mine will be ill from eating them!" Uncle Chuck declared as he tied up two boxes, "Now then, I will be out. Make sure you finish them all."

"Of course," Wave nodded as he left before turning to Takeru, "Okay, Takeru, do you want me to help you the easy way or the hard way?"

"H-Hard way?" Takeru paled.

"Ooh. No one picks the hard way," Wave smirked, making Takeru gulp.


"So that's the case?" Eiji pondered.

"But I never thought…she'd become a Kaijin. It's my fault!" the Director coughed.

"Director, don't talk anymore!" the nurse begged.

"It's not your fault, Sensei," Eiji informed as he followed, "You should just tell her what you told us. Because I swear to bring her back!"

With that, the cart left. Eiji turned and began to run off.

"Eiji-kun/Big Brother!" Roll and Cream called as Rouge followed him.

Eiji didn't hear them. He ran out of the hospital and ran off in a direction. He ran up to a Ride-Vender and quickly deposited the Cell Medals. He was glad Shadow showed him the special codes. Now Ankh wouldn't bark at him when he used more than one Cell Medal.

"Please help me find Ankh and the Yummy," Eiji spoke to the Tora Candroids, Spider Candroids, Taka Candroids, Unagi Candroids, and Batta Candroids.

The one hundred Candroids saluted in their own ways before heading off.

"I swear to bring Ankh and her back," Eiji vowed before running off.

"Dang it, Eiji!" Rouge barked, "Even when his speed's gone, he's still faster than me running…"


"Here we are, Ms. Roll," Cream spoke as she let Roll into Vanilla's room.

"Oh? Hello," Vanilla greeted, pausing from eating a small vanilla and orange cake.

"Mother, this is Ms. Roll. Mr. Eiji is staying with her," Cream introduced, "Her brother is in the hospital."

"I see," Vanilla noted as a gentle smile formed on her face, "Sweetie, Cheese went off to find the cafeteria."

"Oh no!" Cream gasped as she went out.

"Please, sit," Vanilla offered as she motioned to the seat beside her.

"H-Hai…" Roll nodded as she sat down, "Ano…How do you know Eiji-kun?"

"I'm his mother."

"His K-Kaa-chan?" Roll gasped.

"Not by birth. Charles brought him to my home before Cheese was born," Vanilla explained, "She was four when he left to fight Dr. Robotnik."

'Eiji-kun's uncle took him to Vanilla-sama?' "Ano…How old was he?"

"When he came to my home, he was four and one of his spines was nearly torn off," Vanilla explained, making Roll nearly collapse in shock, "You had the same reaction I did back then."

"Wh-What happened?"

"…His father happened," Vanilla frowned, making Roll place a hand over her mouth, "I still do not know of the details, but I knew he needed someone. So, I took him in and raised him for six years. In turn, he helped me care for Cream. It was because of him that little Cream met Cheese."

"…Cheese?"

"She named him," Vanilla explained.

"…Cream cheese?" Roll sweatdropped.

"It shows their bond," Vanilla smiled gently, "Those years were the happiest of my life. Just the four of us together. Even after he left, he would always come back for a week or more."

"That sounds nice."

"It was. And when he would leave, he would always make a nice breakfast for the four of us, hug Cream, Cheese, and I, and then he would leave."

"But why does he call you Vanilla-sama and Cream-chan calls him Mr. Eiji?"

"It's something that we keep secret," Vanilla explained, "When Amy Rose came one day, asking if we had seen Eiji, I asked her to take Cream along. A Chao from the Chao Garden I tend to, Chocolate, was taken by a machine that had been hurt by Eiji and wanted to prove he was the true Eiji."

"Demo…Why Cream-chan?"

"Chocolate is Cheese's brother," Vanilla explained, "I also asked Cheese to keep an eye on her, make notes."

"Notes?"

"Yes. I don't want my little boy hurt, so I made sure she wouldn't," Vanilla explained, "She passed by just a percent on my grading scale."

"And if she didn't…?" Roll gulped.

"…It's best you don't know," Vanilla replied.

"…" Roll scooted a bit away from her.

"Oh, no, no, no! What you're thinking is not it!" Vanilla explained quickly as a nurse walked in, "Oh, nurse? I do apologize, but since there is a second bed, would you please be so kind as to allow Daisuke Sakurai to share this room once his operation is finished?"

"…Eh?"

"Our talk isn't done," Vanilla replied.


"Please have Takai-sensei do a CT scan."

"Hai!" a nurse replied as she carted the Director off before walking out and into the room with Vanilla, Roll, Cream, and Cheese and pointed at the occupied bed with various machines around it, "His pulse has returned, but he's reliant on the machines. We're still looking for the cause…"

'It was a Yummy…' Roll thought.

"For now, he's extremely weakened. I can't predict how he'll turn out. That's all I can say."

"Oniichan," Roll whispered as she gently took the Dalmatian's hand, "Oniichan. Can you tell? I'm right here. I'm here."

'Loves her family: Check,' Vanilla marked, 'Maybe I can let her…'


"Zzz…" Ankh twitched on a bench, snoozing.

"Woof!"

"Eh!-?" Ankh floated up as a short-tailed dog began to bark at him, "Shut up! I'll eat you!"

"Ah! Come here! Come here!" a Mobian dog called as she ran over and picked up the dog before running away.

"Tch! Guess this is all I have…" Ankh snorted as he flew up to a tree branch, "But…guess I didn't really have a reason to dump my handy dying Mobian."


"Seems you did a lot of work, Gotou-kun," Uncle Chuck noted as Gotou rubbed the bandage on his face from Ankh's punch.

"I suppose…for acting on my own…"

"Don't apologize! Just do what you want to! Plus, your subordinate and Ms. Wave worked very hard in your place. Even Roll-kun did well when she was here, actually stopping once she had fifty before she had to leave to the hospital!" Uncle Chuck declared as he pointed at Wave and Takeru, Takeru passing out on a cake while Wave finished her last one.

"Delicious, sir," Wave informed while Uncle Chuck just laughed to himself and pointed at Takeru.

"I'm sorry for disappointing you," Gotou bowed.

"Oh…does he seem disappointing to you? He just lost one thing today," Uncle Chuck grinned.

"I am a part of a trio of thieves," Wave smirked.

"He would eat himself to death!" Uncle Chuck continued, "As president, I really like him! If only men were at Satonaka-kun's level…But he kept eating as much as he could."


"I see…So your boss makes cakes?" Chiyoko asked, still in the cowboy theme, "That sounds pretty tough."

"Well, I actually like spicy foods," Satonaka admitted, "But, he is family and the pay is good."

Shadow just blinked at the Mobian cat as he bit into his fifth Ghost Pepper in the last three minutes.


"Can you do as much as they can?" Uncle Chuck asked.

"That's not my intention. That's what I find disappointing."

"Gotou-kun. The one thing preventing you from making it is that pride! Use your Desire to suppress your pride. That part really bores me."


"Mezool, where did you go?" Gamel coughed, a medical mask on his face.

"Out to get some bubble gum-flavored medicine," Mezool replied.

"Yay…" Gamel cheered weakly.

"As for me, I'll enjoy myself with these," Uva chuckled.

He broke the Cell Medal in his hand into two halves. He tossed them away and bandages erupted out of them. They slowly transformed into two Trash Yummys.


Ankh snored on his tree. He woke up when he heard that Mobian Dog from earlier scream. He 'looked' to see her run away from Tamura.

"Let me perform surgery! I want to perform surgery!"

"A Yummy?"

"Why won't you let me?-! I want to perform surgery!"

"Looks like we can earn a lot from this one."

Ankh shot at the possessed Mobian Lynx. The two struggled until she batted him away.

"That hurt!" Ankh shouted before she stomped on him.

"It'll be fine. I feel pretty confident about these hands. They're just jealous. Now…Let me perform surgery…"

She was about to stab Ankh when a Taka Candroid nailed her arm. She was forced off it when ten Tora Candroids tackled her over and away from the hand.

"Ankh, you need to return to the hospital quickly!" Eiji screamed before he and Ankh hit 'heads,' "Ah!"

"Damn it…this baka…" Ankh growled as he pointed at Tamura, currently batted away the Tora Candroids, "This Yummy is like that glutton. Use the Medals wisely on this. Ja ne."

"Why does everyone get in my way?" Tamura growled as Ankh flew away, "Interrupting my surgery!"

"I'm definitely bringing you back to the hospital," Eiji promised before she was engulfed by the Yummy, "She got swallowed!"

He jumped over the cat's attack. He inserted his favorite Combo and scanned.

"Henshin!"

-LION! TORA! CHEETAH! RATA-RATA~! RA-TO-RA~TA!-

OOO roared as he unleashed the power of his Scorching Combo.


"Sensei, your attention here please," a nurse informed as two moved Roll away from Daisuke.

"Oniichan. Oniichan!"

"He's fading," Mr. Serpent gasped, "12-Lead ECG."

"Hai! Should we use verapamil?"

"Yes."

"I'll prepare it."

"…The heart echocardiogram is ready."

"Hai."

"Oniichan!" Roll called as she shot over and took his hand once more, "Oniichan!"

"Please take care of it."

"Please! Hang in there! Please!" Roll begged before Daisuke's held hand began to twitch, "Oniichan? You can…hear my voice?"

"That hurts!" Ankh screamed as he got up and grabbed his hand, the limb in its Kaijin Mode, "Don't use that monstrous strength unless you want him to die!"

He grabbed Roll's chin with a glare. Her reply was simple; twist the arm.

"Eh, ow-ow-ow!" Ankh screamed before he fell out of bed.

"Ah! To the Oniichan side, gomen nassai!"

"Ite!" Ankh grunted.


OOO and the Siam-Neko Yummy had taken their fight to a small area of grass, trees, and bushes. OOO sweep-kicked the Yummy over before kicking her into a tree. She lunged and OOO ran behind her, getting a dozen kicks to her back and barely getting a glance at an arm of the Lynx Mobian. He proceeded to get it over with and raced around the Siam-Neko Yummy until it became confused. He then dashed and unleashed a barrage of kicks onto her stomach. Once he got the sight, he reached it and pulled out Tamura.

"Are you okay?-!" OOO asked.

"I…"

"You went a little nuts because of that Kaijin," OOO explained as they looked at the Siam-Neko Yummy trying to get her Medals back, "Anyway, you need to return to the hospital right away! The Director has collapsed!"

"Eh?-!" Tamura gasped as OOO tackled the charging Yummy and pinned her.

"He's in a pretty dangerous state!"

"No way. It can't be…!" Tamura gasped before she felt a pair of hand on her waist.

"Just hold on tight," Rouge informed, "I'll take you to the hospital ASAP."

"Ah! Wait!" Tamura shouted as Rouge flew away.

"He didn't let you perform surgery because of jealousy. Deep down, you know that's not the case, right?"

"I…"

"Just let it out," Rouge spoke, "In the meantime, I have to get you to the Director."


"My brother has already had a special condition…"

"I see. As long as he's healthy again."

"Excuse us."

"Excuse us."

Tamura ran into the operation room just as Roll walked out.

"Otou-san!" Tamura gasped as she went over to the Director.

"Tamura-sensei!" Mr. Serpent gasped.

"Otou-san, hold on! Otou-san!"

"Sensei!"

"Hold on! Otou-san!"

"This is a hospital," the Director got out, "Address me as Director."

"Demo…"

"A doctor must not lose her bearings."

"Look at this," Mr. Serpent informed as he handed her an X-Ray, "He needs an emergency operation. It's in a very tricky part. One mistake can mean a large hemorrhage."

"Oh! Ow!" the Director grunted.

"Otou-san!"

"Director!"

"Otou-san!"


"Ms. Roll!"

"Hm? Cream-chan?" Roll blinked as the rabbit ran up to her, Rouge, and Ankh.

"Please, I have something to give to Big Brother!" Cream begged, holding a rectangular box.

"…Another of those gifts!-?" Ankh snapped, "I swear that old fart's got the desire to make cakes nonstop! …I wonder…"

"Ankh, don't you even dare," Rouge scowled.

"Mhph! Mhph!"

"D-did that come from the box?" Roll gulped.

"H'e…" the box grumbled.

It's addressed to Big Brother from Mr. Charles," Cream explained.

"…"

"Shut it, Ankh."

"…" Ankh closed his mouth, "Tch!"


OOO and the Yummy tumbled about as they punched, kicked, and slashed at each other. It was then Kazari tackled OOO from behind. His body glowed before changing back into Eiji. His eyes widened when he looked at his belt and saw his Core Medals gone.

"Looks like I can get a Core Medal as well as Cells," Kazari noted as he held them up before absorbing them and regaining his vest and arm armor, "This makes six. One more set and I'll be complete."

"You're…Kazari!" Eiji gasped as he got up.

"Good memory."

"Oh crap…" Eiji paled, realizing he didn't have any more Core Medals.

The Siam-Neko Yummy and Kazari began to approach when a fist impacted at the ground between them, making a small explosion of dirt and Earth. Roll jumped out of it in a spin. She landed and straightened herself, revealing Cream and Cheese had been holding onto her.

"Ah! Cream-chan, Cheese-chan, get away from here!" Eiji yelped.

"Big Brother, we brought you something from Mr. Charles!" Cream replied as the three ran up.

"Eh? From Uncle Chuck?" Eiji pondered as he was given the box, "'Eiji-kun…Happy Birthday! …To a reunion.' …A reunion?"

Eiji opened up the box and his eyes widened. He carefully pulled out an elegant blade, the length of which was equal to the length of his body minus the head. It had the window of the Medajalibur on the back with a slot on the hilt's bottom. The Guard was round with gold decorations on it. It had two gold 'wings' with red highlights. Intricate designs coated the flat, round guard while the middle of it raised itself to the silver blade. Eiji spun it around so that the blade would point down. Where the middle plate was now had a mouth and two turquoise eyes, ones filled with an old wisdom.

"Caliburn…" Eiji gasped.

"It has been a long time. So good to see you again, Knave the Hedgehog," the blade spoke, the British accent unable to not be noticed.

"A blade!-?" Cream gasped before looking at her hands with a shake, "I…I didn't know! I'm so sorry!"

"Cream-chan, Cheese-chan, Roll-chan, what you've brought me…" Eiji began as Kazari and the Siam-Neko Yummy raced out.

"Die, OOO!" Kazari roared.


"Ichi, ni, san!" everyone declared as they loaded the Director onto a cart.

"Director, we're going to perform an operation."

"Kei."

"What is it?"

"You do the surgery. You said you really wanted to, right?" the Director asked with a weak smile, "I know you're confident in yourself."

"I…I can't…Because…If I make a mistake…Otou-san…"

"Tamura-sensei. Director! It should be common sense that you don't have your family member perform surgery on you."

"Kei. It's that fear…That's what you lacked…What a surgeon needs…is more than techniques…They need the fear that comes with having a life in their hands. People and Mobians praised you as being a brilliant surgeon. I wanted…to stop you from being a doctor who relied only on technique! That's why…" Director began before he began to let out groans of pain.

"Otou-san. Otou-san!"

"Let's go!"

"Hai!"

With that, everyone but Tamura went out. The Lynx stayed there for a moment. She gulped nervously before going after them.


The wind blew softly, small bits of grass being carried away. Kazari's head was flying off his shoulders as Eiji caught his favorite Combo's Cheetah Core Medal. Nearby, the Siam-Neko Yummy had her tail and claws sliced clean off. Kazari's body reformed once more, the feline Greeed livid. The two girls and Chao gasped at the sight as Eiji put the Chaos Emerald on the O-Scanner.

"Roll-chan, GataKiriBa," Eiji ordered.

"Eh? Oh…H-Hai!" Roll nodded as she gave the Medals to him, 'His leg…it isn't bothering him from that?'

"Impressive as ever, Knight of the Wind," Caliburn noted as Eiji put the Medals into place.

"Just be ready for a surge of power, old friend," Eiji spoke, "Henshin!"

-CHAOS KUWAGATA! CHAOS KAMAKIRI! CHAOS BATTA! CHAOS GATA-GATA-GATAKIRIBA! CHAOS GA-TA-KI-RI-BA!-

Standing before Cream, Cheese, and Roll was OOO's GataKiriBa Combo. However, the armor was stronger and seemed to be more akin to the exoskeleton on an insect. The horns on his helmet had extended and grew sharp while a pair of antennae were on the back, pointing backwards. His Kamakiri Swords were longer with two on the back of his arms. His legs were coated in extra armor while green electricity came off him. Caliburn had altered as well. The blade was longer with an insect visor covering his eyes. The gold had changed to an emerald while the red was a pitch black.

Cue: Got To Keep It Real

Ankh drove up on the Ride-Vendor with Rouge on it with Omega following them.

"I thought I took that Chaos Emerald from him, dammit!" Ankh growled.

"You did," Rouge replied as she pulled out the Emerald Ankh took, "It must have been a new one."

OOO growled before he let out a rising roar. The air crackled with green lightning as his roar grew in strength, Caliburn's roar mixing in as well. Roll grabbed the two youngest there and ran up to the others.

"Seems Kazari is in good health," Ankh noted.

"He took a Core Medal," Roll admitted.

"…Nani?"

OOO rushed at the two Kaijin. Kazari jumped back as the Siam-Neko Yummy charged. Ankh watched closely as OOO's new Super Strongest Combo was about to fight. Omega began to record data as the girls just prayed for his safety. The Kamakiri Swords glowed before they appeared as a green scythe shaped like a praying mantis in OOO's free hand. He swung and cleaved into the Yummy with the scythe before releasing a jump-like kick into her gut, blasting a hole through her gut and five trees behind her. Kazari lunged at OOO only for one to appear out of him and kick him in the face. Roll and Cream screamed. Approaching them were Trash Yummy.

"Trash Yummy," Ankh scowled, "I don't know who these guys are…

Ankh turned his Kaijin Arm on and charged. He punched one over before throwing one at a tree. Omega unleashed heavy fire on the one near the tree as Ankh began to take his sweet time with the other. The two Trash Yummy were thrown into each other.

"…But I haven't felt this refreshed in a while," Ankh finished before he and Omega punched their clocks as another OOO emerged from a tree and stabbed Kazari and the Siam-Neko Yummy with his Chaos Kamakiri Scythe.

PAUSE


"I wanted…to stop you from being a doctor who relied only on technique!"

Those words continued to go through her head as she scrubbed her hands, preparing for surgery. Her father's life was on the line. She wasn't going to lose him. She just wasn't going to. But still…

"The fear when a life is in your hands…" Tamura gulped.

Finished with her preparations, she entered the ER. A doctor helped her put on her surgical outfit. She looked around and nodded to her fellow doctors.

"Let's do it."

"Please do."

"Scalpel."


RESUME

"Ha! Take that!" Ankh cackled as he threw his Trash Yummy into the sights of Omega's launcher.

-Fire!- Omega declared as he blasted the two into a tree as Gotou drove up.

"Oi! I'm in the middle of having fun!"

"Move it you don't want to get hurt!" Gotou shouted as he whipped his special gun out.

"Duck!" Rouge shouted as she tackled Ankh over.

"Gotou-kun…the one thing preventing you from making it is that pride! Use your desire to suppress your pride. That part of you is extremely boring."

'But if I give up my pride, it's all over!' Gotou thought as he open fired, destroying the two Trash Yummys.

Nearby, OOO regrouped into a single Kamen Rider. He took out three Cell Medals and slid them into Caliburn's slot. The three appeared on the window and OOO scanned them and his belt.

-TRIPLE SCANNING CHARGE! SCANNING CHARGE!-

All around the Siam-Neko Yummy, green Chaos Energy stag beetles, mantises, and grasshoppers the size of Dobermans appeared. All of them were chattering angrily and erratically at the feline. Caliburn erupted into green energy as OOO split into seven.

"Chaos…GataKiriBa…Kick!" the OOO all roared.

The Energy Insects jumped into the air with all but the original OOO. As they all slammed into the Siam-Neko Yummy, creating multiple explosions, OOO slashed vertically. The scene before him raised and lowered before resetting itself, making the Yummy explode and be destroyed.

"I guess this is fine. You can have the Cell Medals. Prepare yourself for the next time we meet," Kazari noted before jumping away.

OOO was about to follow when he collapsed. His armor shattered to reveal Eiji, out cold. The sword in his hand now just the guard and hilt. As the others raced over to him, Ankh stomped up to Gotou.

"Well you're satisfied, but what about me? Will you be my opponent?" Ankh swung at Gotou, only for the man to drive off, "Oi, matte! Rrr…Eiji! You let two Cores get stolen! What are you doing?-!"

"…Sleeping," Rouge replied.

"Well, you separated yourself from my Oniichan!" Rouge growled as she picked up and rammed Ankh through a tree, "…Ah! Gomen nassai, Oniichan's body!"

"Why you…" Ankh growled.

He flew over at Roll and slapped her on the forehead. She swung, only for her to miss.

"Over here."

She turned and Ankh flicked her nose.


"Director, it ended in a success."

"Isn't that great?"

"Now that's a relief," Eiji panted, still feeling the effects of Chaos GataKiriBa, as he heard the nurses from in Vanilla's room.

"And he kissed the Lady of the Lake on the lips!" Caliburn informed, "I must say, I was afraid of what Lancelot would do once he learned that. The Knave had to spend a month recovering from the kick he received."

"Oh my…" Vanilla giggled, "Just take care of him, okay?"

"But of course," Caliburn nodded as he flew into Eiji's hand.

"Ba-ba!" Echo babbled in Vanilla's lap.

"You're a little angel like Cream was when she was a baby," Vanilla smiled kindly as she gave the two-year-old a soft hug, "And Roll?"

"H-Hai?"

"I say that you pass," Vanilla smiled, "Make sure to care for my little boy, will you?"

"O-Okaa-chan…!" Eiji blushed heavily as Rouge just giggled at the blushing Hedgehog and Hedgefox.


"Congratulations," Mr. Serpent informed, "Your techniques were truly divine."

"Iie. I've just started to be a true surgeon.


"Come on!" an officer growled as he forced a man into his car, his fellow officer helping him.

"What's going on?"

"They said he's guilty of fraud."

"Let me go, fool…"

"Seems he swindled a lot of freaking money…"

Unaware to them all, the remains of Mezool's Yummy Sac was empty nearby.


"Welcome back, my children. It was a success."

"Wai~ Medals!" Gamel sniffled as the Yummys all turned into large piles of Cell Medals, "There's a lot! Achoo!"

"Thanks to the Trash Yummy distracting OOO and Ankh. I was able to take my time to grow some Yummys."

"Heh. This is just the start. We need to collect more Core Medals," Uva snorted.

"Wai! Alright!" Gamel coughed.

"Bed, mister!" Mezool ordered as she made Gamel go sit on his bed, "I'll bring you the Cell Medals, okay?"

"Uh-huh…Arigatou, Mezool."

"It's no big deal."


In Maki's lab, he carefully finished dressing his doll. The computer screen showed designs on a Kamen Rider. It suddenly fizzled before revealing a red Core Medal on the screen. He looked at it with a dark grin.


Next time on Kamen Rider OOO…

Shadow: We're transporting roughly 5000 Cell Medals.

Ankh: Found it. My Condor Core!

Kazari: Roll Cyber Sakurai. She's trapped in the transport car with Echo Hino, Cream the Rabbit, and Cheese the Chao.

Eiji: Why are you collecting all these?-!

Ankh: For a Core Medal, I would eliminate you!


Medal 15: Struggle for the Medals, Transport Car, Super Gravity Combo


Roll: *blushing still*

Cream: Hello, everyone. My name is Cream.

Roll: *shakes head* I…I'm Roll Cyber Sakurai, minna! And this is…

Both: Rider…Fashion…Check!

Cream: Today we'll be introducing the new Chaos Emerald-powered Combo for Mr. OOO…

-CHAOS KUWAGATA! CHAOS KAMAKIRI! CHAOS BATTA! CHAOS GATA-GATA-GATAKIRIBA! CHAOS GA-TA-KI-RI-BA!-

Roll: Chaos GataKiriBa! The armor seems to be more like a bug's body more than ever. It has antennae now and…are those horns moving like mandibles?

Cream: *gulps* I think they are. *shakes head* Mr. OOO can now make copies of him from anywhere and anyone while his Kamakiri Swords have evolved into the Kamakiri Scythe. It feels like he's invading someone's personal space. I really hope Mr. OOO apologizes for it.

Roll: And like his other Chaos Combo, the upgraded Scanning Charge-the Chaos GataKiriBa Kick-creates energy bodies of his three Core Medals while using his elemental version of his normal attack.

Cream: I was scared Mr. Eiji was hurt badly from his Combo.

Roll: H-Hai…*blushes a little*

Cream: …Ms. Roll, why are you blushing?

Roll: A-Ano…Oh, look at that! We're out of time! Ja ne, minna! *runs out*
