DECADE: Reality & Consequences
I don't own Kamen Rider or Super Sentai, they belong to Toei. Any other fictional character mentioned is not mine, but belongs to DC Comics.
Tuesday
Columbus Tech
My god... that exam, it was fairly overwhelming. I managed to solve every problem on the test, but goddamn! It was pretty tough! I walked out of there, then took the elevator down and then I saw some commotion outside. It was... the hell?! What was that thing?! It had a white skull-shape with a green eye on it, plus black armor all-around.
"The hell is that?!"
'Trial Series.'
"Any explanation, Kenzaki?"
'The fusion of Human DNA, Undead DNA and with mechanical components. This is Trial B, an Electric-Type Trial Series. Wait a minute, what is that blue gun he has in his hand?!'
I looked closer and then saw... holy shit! The Diendriver?! Oh, crap. This means one thing only...
Trial B took a Rider Card out, it resembled the Secondary Rider of Kamen Rider Decade: Kamen Rider Diend. The man who can summon other Riders via Rider Cards. He inserted the card into the Diendriver...
KAMEN RIDE!
"Henshin..."
DIEND!
"What the hell!?"
The armor materialized, he was covered in blue armor, but his arms and legs remained the same. The belt was shaped like Trial B's belt, but with Diend's symbols on it. The upper body was twisted in a way, jagged spikes instead of straight, black bars. The helmet had Trial B's face on it and the bars resembled more spikes. I was starring at... a Kaijin Rider.
"If I remember from the Decade-Shinkenger crossover, the Kaijin Rider could summon other Kaijin, mainly from Kamen Rider."
I see them place red-colored Cards... wait a minute!
KAIJIN RIDE: WOLF UNDEAD!
KAIJIN RIDE: NEKO YUMMY!
KAIJIN RIDE: CAMMARUS WORM!
KAIJIN RIDE: STARDUST NINJA DUSTARDS!
"Son of a bitch! He summoned that many!?" I yelled, I quickly hid in the library while that monster Diend was having his monsters cause tons of havoc and in a few minutes: the FBI arrived in SWAT vans and opened fire on everyone of them.
The Wolf Undead, he had spiked armor on, plus a sharp set of claws. He went to town one some FBI SWAT guys... oh, my god, he just slashed them open and... wait! They're turning into werewolves?!
The Neko Yummy was just slamming into food vendor stands. The Cammarus Worm was just a blur, sending SWAT officers flying into cars or trucks. The Dustards were slashing at the tanks and trying to get to their targets.
'Henshin NOW!'
Alright, alright! I quickly go into my backpack and pull out the most unexpected thing: a yellow belt with a swirl shape, accompanying the circle and two black spheres next to the yellow sphere. The Alter Ring... from Kamen Rider Agito. The henshin belt for the main Rider himself. I quickly placed the belt around my waist, then went outside...
"HENSHIN!"
Armor around me materialized and seeing the reactions of the Kaijin Diend, it seems he knows well enough about Agito. As I remember about Agito, I have yellow armor on, mainly upper-body armor, yellow arm bands, anklets and mostly black spandex on. I run at the Neko Yummy first, I use several kicks on the fat cat and he's showing one wound... mainly bleeding Cell Medals...
If I keep at it, I can destroy it. I keep kicking at it, I then perform a pose... almost as if I know it. The symbol of Agito appears underneath me and I jump in the air, landing a powerful kick... making the Neko Yummy explode.
"Agito... Kick."
'Wasn't it called Rider Kick before?'
"Don't ruin it."
Now, I'm surrounded by werewolves and Dustards... I stand my ground and they attack now, I get clawed at and slashed... OW! Shit! Ow! I strike back with a punch in a Dustard's face, then I smash a few Dustards' faces in with my fists and I run at the Wolf Undead.
The Undead wanted to fight, but I kept countering some of his attacks... I then tapped the right switch, achieving Flame Form and grabbing a curved sword, the Flame Saber. Suddenly, my senses feel more sensitive... also my armor was pure red. In addition, one shoulder-pad was slightly enlarged.
The Undead sent his werewolves to attack me more, but I somehow knew where they were going to attack. I raised my sword, then countered some of their attacks and slashed each one in half... incineration would follow. I then looked at the Wolf Undead and then prepared my blade for a finisher...
"Saber... Slash."
I parried the Wolf Undead's final attack and slashed him twice. The Undead then became incinerated and then I look at the Worm was a blur at this point. He kept hitting everywhere and I got sent flying into a cafe, window-first.
"Ow... okay, let's try two." I said while materializing another Flame Saber. I got out and sensed the Cammarus Worm's presence, I blocked his energy-wielding claw several times, but he managed to parry each time.
Alright... I see what you're doing. The Worm was speeding all over the place, but I needed to focus. Where would that Worm strike next... I start focusing on his movements and NOW!
The Worm's claw was sliced off, then I saw it bleeding out, yelling in pain. I saw it was my chance, the crest horns opened up on both Flame Sabers were lighting up and I slashed the Worm's head off... then it exploded. I then saw the Dustards coming right at me...
"Bring it."
I ran at them, but I tapped the other switch, turning my armor blue and making the left shoulder-pad slightly larger, just less sharp like the one in Flame Form. The sabers then disappeared, I pulled out a blue halberd from my belt and I realized, I became Storm Form Agito. I knew this form was weaker in terms of power, but I was more speedy and agile. I quickly put the hurt on these Dustards, but these guys were parrying my blows and then someone smacked me in the face...
"Let me take control, Victor. These guys are becoming too much for you."
Not yet, I quickly take the fight to them. I start spinning the Storm Halberd which was stirring up strong winds, putting the Dustards off-balance. By force of wind, they gather all in one spot... I jump and pierce through several and then with the other end of the halberd, slash through several other Dustards and for the impaled ones, I throw them off...
"Halberd Spin."
Every Dustard in the vicinity exploded... I walk towards the monstrous Diend. Halberd ready and then he pulls out several more Kaijin Ride Cards, but I recognize them. They're the Lords, the angel-like antagonists of Kamen Rider Agito. For a summary: They once protected humanity from the monstrous Gurongi, but in the modern day when humans started getting supernatural powers, the Lords were given a new assignment: Kill all who had supernatural powers and to be specific, the potential to become Agito... Yea, ironic. Angels becoming villains.
"So, can you talk?"
KAIJIN RIDE: FORMICA EQUES!
KAIJIN RIDE: SKELOS GLAUCUS!
KAIJIN RIDE: TAURUS BALLISTA!
KAIJIN RIDE: PANTHERAS MAGISTRA!
Oh, son of a bitch... he summoned four Lords. What makes things worse, some of these are high-level Lords. I readied myself, then saw how big they look.
Formic Eques was an Ant Lord, specifically a commander type. He was covered in dark red armor on its upper body, plus tri-spikes on the shoulder-pads and armed with a war scythe. As I remember from the Agito movie, they spray a suffocation-induced liquid in their victim's face for instant death.
Skelos Glaucus was a Jackal Lord, but resembled the Egyptian god, Anubis moreso. He had some quasi-Egyptian symbols on his body, which mainly was black with small blue lines. If I remember, he was a speedster armed with combat sickles.
Taurus Ballista was a humanoid Buffalo Kaijin, covered in ancient warrior armor, kinda resembling that of a Greek warrior. In addition, it was armed with that menacing staff. He was from Kamen Rider Decade.
Pantheras Magistra was the Queen of the Jaguar Lords. She mainly resembled an ancient warrior, iron bra included and she had a black Jaguar head. She was armed with a combat staff.
"Unknown. Be careful! Taurus is a monster of a fighter."
Taurus and Glaucus come at me first, but I see Trial Diend taking aim and then using the following the Rider Card.
ATTACK RIDE: CROSS ATTACK!
Both Taurus and Pantheras were side by side and then unleashed a combined ENERGY BLAST! I barely got out of the way and then I turned my back... oh, crap... the entrance was destroyed and the desk was slightly melted. This isn't good... I then get smacked in the jaw by the Jackal Lord and then the Ant Lord slashes me up with his scythe. I barely fought back, then I punched the Jackal Lord and in a moment of fury, I ripped its head off... I grabbed its sickles and and destroyed the Queen Jaguar Lord's staff with several strikes.
I then performed several upon the Jaguar Lord, then I attacked her with a thrust from the Storm Halberd and then threw her near the Ant Lord's way. Both were bleeding heavily, then both exploded.
The Ant Lord was highly injured, but the Taurus Lord was determined. I did not care at this point, the Ant Lord and Taurus attacked at the same time, slashing me and even slamming me into the ground.
"Oh, that's it!" I said in response. I punched the Taurus Lord in the face, then switched to Flame Form... but for a risk, I pressed both switches and I... felt power surging through me... both shoulder-pads were enlarged, but my body armor resembled my base form, Ground Form. I was in Trinity Form, combining all three forms into one. Flame, Storm and Ground in one being.
I close the distance and then punch the Ant Lord straight in the jaw, breaking his jaw and caving in his eye... I then rip his arms off and roundhouse kick him in the air... he then explodes and my god!
It's a very huge explosion which just broke... the windows of the buildings above me... the Taurus Lord just looked at me and stood his ground. He used his staff and fired energy blasts at me only... I dodge some of them.
I get hit, but I manage to block it. However, I'm pretty injured...
I managed to pull out both the Storm Halberd and Flame Saber, I stand my ground against Taurus. I quickly go on the offensive and then start hacking away at his defenses, but the Trial Diend joined in and smashed my stomach with several shots. It took him awhile.
However, I dodged some of the shots and then slashed Taurus's arms off, then kicked him right into the Trial Diend. He got pissed off and then used a Attack Ride Card. Good, get angry.
FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-D-DIEND!
A futuristic arc appeared in front of me, but I quickly got out of the way and then performed a slashing attack. Taurus was stabbed right in the stomach by the Flame Saber, then decapitated by the Storm Halberd.
"Firestorm Attack."
Taurus Ballista was no more. Diend missed his attack, then pointed at me. I readied myself and then went attacking...
ATTACK RIDE: BARRIER!
He put up a cubic-like barrier and my attacks barely dented. I kept at it... until I saw two figures walk closer. One had a white suit on, plus a white military cape on along with a officer's hat on. The other one had a warrior-king outfit, brown accompanied by some light brown stripes. Plus, menacing armored shoulder-pads. He looked older, hell, old enough to be my dad.
"Who the fuck are you guys?"
"That's pretty vulgar for someone like you, Decade."
"Uh, Wrong Decade, pal."
"I will simply your colors to my rose, while you die in agonizing pain." said the white suit while wielding a blue rose.
"You must be the Neo-Decade my employer must be talking about."
"Who is he or she?"
"You will know in due time. However, he's a big member of the Kaijin Syndicate."
Both figures walked closer, the FBI backed off sensing something dangerous about them and students took cover by going upstairs and staying in the far back. I looked back a bit and saw the worst thing: Gail and Dyson witnessing what is about to go down.
The white suit took a kick-boxing stance and held his arm out almost as if he's starting a fight. Suddenly, I see a gold flying thing... is it a Zecter?
"Henshin!"
HENSHIN!
CHANGE BEETLE!
Holy shit... Kamen Rider Caucasus, I remember this guy from the Kamen Rider Kabuto movie: God Speed Love. He was gold color in armor, mainly the upper body with spine-like horns on his shoulder and top it off, he has a tri-horn look on his mask, accompanied by two blue eye-lenses, carrying the Caucasus beetle motif. He then took his combat stance and waited for his partner.
"I will devour everything... Henshin."
He grabbed a Rider Pass... it's Gaoh, the thief-king... from Kamen Rider Den-O. He then flipped the Rider Pass in the air and then I hear:
GAOH FORM!
Kamen Rider Gaoh and Kamen Rider Caucasus stand in front of me, ready to kill me. I ready myself... but suddenly!
KAMEN RIDE: POWER UP!
Trial Diend was glowing yellow and his gun was charging a large shot, Caucasus had some beetle-like device on his waist and he flipped the switch, Gaoh scanned the Rider Pass against his belt...
FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-D-DIEND!
MAXIMUM RIDER POWER!
FULL CHARGE!
"Rider Kick."
"Tyrant Crash."
Gaoh's serrated sword launches from the hilt, slashing me several times... then Caucasus jumps in the air and kicks me square in the chest and for a last attack: Gaoh did an overhead strike and Diend launched a gigantic energy shot into me.
I was bleeding... blood seeping out of my armor and I somehow got the strength to pick myself up and then do Agito's pose. I jump in the air to do his finishing move... however, I was too injured to fight. I end up hitting Gaoh weakly and even start losing my senses.
"It seems you want more pain... I will oblige." said Gaoh who tried slashing me with his sword. However, I managed to catch it and then... I felt different. I see myself ripping the sword and impaling him with it.
"FIRESTORM ATTACK!"
I impale him even further and then rip my weapons out of his bleeding chest. Gaoh then explodes into bloody chunks, Diend and Caucasus are immediately shocked by this.
"I did not expect this... looks like I need to do this..."
"Hyper Clock Up..."
HYPER CLOCK UP!
In a split-second, I see Caucasus right there away from me... my side gets a cut... Ah, fuck. I'm bleeding even more. He then looks and sees that I'm highly wounded.
"It's time to end this."
MAXIMUM RIDER POWER!
"Rider Kick."
"Oh no, you don't."
I ready himself, Agito's symbol appearing underneath me and we both launch ourselves in the air... We both hit at the same time, but I manage to pierce through and smash my foot in Caucasus's face. Trial Diend is shocked at this and decides to do the following...
ATTACK RIDE: INVISIBLE!
Caucasus is sent into the building and leaves a crater. He struggles to get up, but I could tell he's spitting up blood and then he looks at me.
"You're a monster. Even moreso than the Worms. It seems..."
"Oh, shut up. Tell me, who is in charge of the Kaijin Syndicate? What is the point of you and other Dark Riders coming for me? Gaoh's dead, Ouja's dead, Punch Hopper's in FBI custody, how many more Dark Riders need to be sacrificed before you make ACTUAL progress?"
"Heheheh... *coughs up blood* It's not any for that. It's for *keeps coughing* a test... combat data for Isaka and my employer."
That line caught me off guard. Test? For what? It then dawned on me: They're trying to create a Dark Decade of sorts... I then look behind, specifically across from me. I see Isaka, the Peacock Undead clapping his hands and slowly walking towards me and the injured Caucasus. I saw Agent Frazier trying to block him, but he gets telekinetically thrown into a FBI van.
"It's true, we are creating. The combat data I gathered was... adequate. Caucasus, it looks like we need to improve the Hyper Zecter. Diend shown some high potential. All that leads-"
I quickly punch him in the jaw, then go on a savage fist-addled beatdown, even breaking his glasses. He then throws me against the security desk and then says
"Not now."
He took Caucasus with him and then just disappeared...by going into his Undead form and telekinetically lifting himself and flying away. I barely get up, still coughing up blood and feeling injury in my legs... Damn it.
In a few minutes... I see Dyson, Gail and a few others come out and some yell out
"OH MY GOD!"
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE?!"
"You know, I'm still alive... *coughs up a bit of blood*"
"Dyson! Call the ambulance."
When Dyson was calling the the ambulance. I see Agent Frazier come up and then say
"For your own good, stay away from Kamen Rider Agito."
"What?" responded Dyson.
"Don't you get it, his power is too dangerous. Sure, he may have saved the people in this building. But look at this destruction, sure-"
"Oh, just shut up. Agito is badly hurt! He saved us, don't you think we can repay the favor back to him!" responded a defiant Gail. However, I reverted back to human form. This shocked everyone, even Dyson who dropped his phone. Agent Frazier then saw and realized...
"A college kid?! A college kid? How... alright, this is now becoming very complicated. Agito is a college kid?"
At that point, Dyson, Gail and friends lifted me and then ran upstairs into the library. Mind you, I was still in fucking pain. The stair trip didn't make things easier. They got to the third floor, specifically the big room which was empty. They laid me down and Dyson stood watch for Agent Frazier. Dyson quickly said
"It seems that FBI Agent is gone. Now, Victor. WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED? First, you're Kamen Rider Fang and now you're... Agito?"
"Yea, it's a complex story. But those two Dark Riders who attacked me, there was a good reason... it seems they're creating a new Rider System, something like Neo-Decade."
"What? A Dark Decade?"
"Essentially... all that needs to be done is to prevent it from happening. Ow."
Triborough Houses
Harlem, NY
Isaka was there with Caucasus, impressed and looking at his progress.
"It seems we have made progress so far. The combat data recorded from Gaoh and yourself is enough for the ultimate Rider."
"Rider System? Who else needs to be on the field?"
"I think Orga and Dark Kabuto are next. However, I need to control the latter's bloodlust against the original Kabuto. However, I need to prepared. Get people to work on the Dark Zecter. Now."
"Yes, Boss." said Caucasus who quickly reverted to human form and decided to go downstairs and tell all the grunt Kaijin to work on the Dark Zecter. Isaka then sat down and then looked at the file on Kamen Rider Orga. The Dark Rider from Kamen Rider Faiz, the Orga Gear was made to be the Orphnochs' "perfect" weapon. However, it would fall to Faiz and then Isaka realized: Orga needed a new powerful form to put him on par with his counterpart, Kamen Rider Faiz.
He would get Murakami's help to create a weapon to create Orga's new form which he deemed 'Regent Form' and then would apply this to all other Dark Riders. ALL for this Rider System... it would be his to control, no one else. Everyone else would be inconsequential.
That's the end of Chapter 21.
Well, it seems Isaka is planning a betrayal in the future.
Victor has been beaten brutally the second time! With the Kaijin Syndicate progressing, will he survive this battle!?
TUNE IN!
The Day after Christmas...
Eiji Hino: What the... what happened last night? Why is Hina laying on me? In my shirt?!
Souji Tendou: Eiji, never get drunk again. That and if Hina's brother was here, he would most definitely kill you.
Takumi Inui: Did I go somewhere?
Kazuma Kenzaki: YOU TOOK MY MOTORCYCLE FOR A JOY-RIDE! SPECIFICALLY TO RACE A STREET GANG!
Takumi Inui: Did I win?
Kazuma Kenzaki: THAT'S-THAT'S NOT IMPORTANT!
