Chapter 24: Advent Master Returns

Hey everyone! It's me sakuraphoenix, and I'm back with a new chapter! Seeing that I have a four-day weekend, I should be able to find time to post some more chapters of various fanfics, such as this one, seeing that there are gonna be a few more chapters left in this one. Yep! This fanfic is almost done, and the Digimon and Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's crossover is currently in the lead for my poll. I'd love to share the current results, but why don't we just move onto the disclaimer, shall me?

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's or Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight

Enjoy!

Out of all the things I thought I would be doing here on this world, being escorted by FBI agents was not on the list, or the No Men for that matter. In all honestly, I had no idea where we were going. However, I think we encountered another Kamen Rider, but he was inside some kind of tube with mist coming out of it. Apparently, Len recognized him.

"The Advent Master." Said Len

Len then walked up to him, and pulled out his Advent Deck. He held the deck in front of his, and it seemed to activate the Advent Master's deck. It apparently seemed to do the trick. Then Len stepped back as the Advent Master looked around. He then got out of his own armor, revealing a middle-aged man. There was a long pause of silence.

"Len." Said the man

"Master Eubulon. Boy, am I glad to see you." Said Len

Looks like we were in for a long explanation.

"Xaviax and I Vented each other at the same time. His attack was so strong that I was blasted, not to the Advent Void, but to Earth. I hoped that I had defeated him." Said Eubulon

"We all thought you had, but he came back." Said Len

He then looked around the room.

"How long have I been gone?" asked Eubulon

"You were found 61 years ago. 1947 in Roswell, New Mexico." Said Michelle

Say what? It's ten years past here. Is it 2008 here?

"We couldn't wake you, so we froze you in our cryochamber 'till we could find someone who could." Said one of the agents

"Wait, you've known him since 1947? But you don't look anywhere near 60." Said Lacey

"The Kamen Riders lie in suspended animation. When there's a rotation, one rider stays awake for an entire year, then the next rider wakes up. Adam betrayed us while he was on duty. He let Xaviax attack us while we slept." Said Len

"I can't believe it. Why would he do it?" asked Eubulon

Len just shook his head. He apparently didn't want to talk about it.

"So Xaviax has succeeded in taking the people of Ventara to his own world to be his servants." Said Eubulon

"And now he plans to do the same with earth." Said Len

"What we wanna know is when, and will you help us stop him?" asked Michelle

He was apparently about to answer when another man in black appeared carrying a case of some sorts. They opened the case, and Eubulon's face fell. There was some strange sound coming from whatever was inside the case. Len looked like he recognized it too. In all honesty, when I saw what was in it, I had no idea what I was looking at.

"What is it?" asked Maya

"A teleportation beacon. If Xaviax has begun planting them on Earth, we have only days before he captures the entire population." Said Eubulon

"And after he does what he does here… he could go after, our home." I slowly realized as I looked at Yusei and Jack

"We gotta stop him." Said Trent

Everyone then looked at Trent.

"I'm glad to hear you say that." Said the first man in black

The second man in black took him away.

"Let's talk." Said the first man in black.

I guess we were going to wait for a while until the guy came back with Trent. I was mostly worried about the others, if they were here.

"Hey, can I talk to you for a minute?" asked Lacey

Apparently, for once in her life, Michelle was going to listen.

"I'm sorry, but, I really need some time back in the real world so I can wrap my head around all of this." Said Lacey

"We can't allow you to leave Lacey. You know too much." Said Michelle

"Lacey's not going to say anything Michelle. I promise you." Said Maya

"Seriously, talking about interdimensional aliens doesn't exactly get a girl a second date. Your secret's safe with me." Said Lacey

"Whatever, get out of here. But remember, we know where you live." Said Michelle

Creepy much?

"Bye Lace." Said Maya

They then hugged each other.

"Don't worry, I'll be back. See ya sweetie. And be careful." Said Lacey

She left the area.

"Hey guys, I… I need some time to think. I'll be in the other room." I said

I walked out, and instead of heading to the other room, I was leaning against the wall. I then pulled out my Advent Deck, and then I pulled out the Contract card with Lunar Eclipse Dragon's picture on it. I just didn't know what to do anymore. I wanted to help save Earth, but there had to be a price to pay for it all.

"You know, when Kase had to think, she's always be staring at her Contract beast's Contract Card and holding her Advent Deck in her left hand. You two have a lot in common." Said Eubulon

"Maybe personality wise. It's just that, I really, really, really want to help save Ventara, but I don't know what the cost will be. So many riders have been tricked by Xaviax already, and he manipulated almost every one of them to get his way. He almost did that to me to be honest. If it weren't for my psychic powers, I'd probably be in the Advent Void or still fighting under him, or worse. It's just that, I just don't know the price we'll all have to pay in order for Xaviax to be gone forever." I said

"It's natural for you to be worried. Originally, that's how I felt. But the one thing that kept me going was courage. You have the courage to be a Kamen Rider, yes, but there's something else about you that drives you. I won't force you to make a decision about this battle, but it's up to you to decide what you need to you." Said Eubulon as he began to walk away to somewhere

Something that I have to decide, huh? The fate of our world is at risk. I think this is an answer that's easy for me to decide on.

Later…

Michelle was drawing something on a board.

"Seven on Ventara. Destroying the beacons will slow Xaviax, but it won't stop him. We'll never get them all. Attach this to your frequency scanners. It will allow you to scan Ventara for the transmitters that send the teleport beams to the beacons. There's one of each continent. Ventara doubles of Africa, Asia, North America, South America, Europe, and Australia." Said Eubulon

"But this is alien technology. Where am I gonna find someone who can make it compatible with our scanners?" asked Michelle

"Hey, that kinda looks familiar." I said

"How?" asked Michelle

"Well, it looks like a part that regulates the Ener-D chemical inside duel runners. Sometimes it works as a generator in case of a blackout. Unfortunately, that's all I know. I'm no physicist, or a chemist." I said

"Thanks for helping." Michelle said sarcastically

"Hey, at least I had an idea!" I exclaimed

Then I saw the first man in black with Trent… wait a minute, why's he wearing a monkey suit?

"Meet Agent Mosley." Said the man in black from earlier

Cue the looks of shock on everyone's faces. Well, almost everyone's.

"Trent? You're a No Men?" asked Maya

"Sorry Maya. They know everything." Said Trent

This came as a shock.

"Here. Get to work." Said Michelle as she handed the device to Trent

"First assignment rookie." Said the guy in black

Well, at least everyone was working on something around here. I was just waiting for the green light.

"This is the last one." Said Len as he gave Kase's deck to Eubulon

There was kinda an awkward atmosphere.

"Can you really bring people back from the Advent Void? I thought it was forever." Said Maya

"Without Master Eubulon, it was forever. He's the only one who has the key to the Advent Void." Said Len

"Being Vented was a failsafe. If a rider was badly hurt, it pulled them to the safety of the Void until I could bring them out. But when I disappeared, they were trapped." Said Eubulon

"How horrible." Said Maya

He waved his hand over the Advent Key, but it sparked a bit.

"It must've been damaged in my fight against Xaviax." Said Eubulon

"Will it still work?" asked Len

"We're going to find out. You may need help before I return." Said Eubulon

"With all due respect, my friends, the Signers and I are Kamen Riders as well. Our Contract beasts are our Signer Dragons, my sister Dawn is an exception. But still, we may need a little help, but I thought the Advent Decks were created for one person only. My DNA structure is similar to Kase's, which allowed me to use her deck until she appeared." I said

"I understand, but it was me who assigned the decks and I can reassign them." Said Eubulon

He then turned to Maya.

"You have the courage to be a Kamen Rider." Said Eubulon

"Me? I… I don't know. I've never been in a fight in my life." Said Maya

He waved his hand over the deck.

"Now it's yours." Said Eubulon

Uncertainly, Maya took the deck.

"And as for learning how to fight…" started Eubulon

He held out his hand, and slowly, Maya put her hand onto his. A few moments later, it appeared that Maya had just gotten out of a trance.

"There you are." Said Eubulon

"Am I supposed to feel any different?" asked Maya

Eubulon looked at Len with a look I actually recognized.

"Let's see if it worked." Said Len

Maya managed to block each one of Len's attacks! Whoa! It took me years to do that in my self-taught martial arts on the internet before I actually took a class.

"Will do." Said Len

Maya looked like she was dumbfounded.

"I'll be back." Said Eubulon

They then did some kind of handshake.

"With help. Don't worry, I've already taken the time to inform your friends about the situation at hand." Said Eubulon

He waved his hand over the key and the mirror pulsed like it was a portal.

Later…

I just walked out of one of the changing rooms. I was in a black jacket with a black tank top underneath, black pants, and a pair of knee-high boots. The insignia that was on my Advent Deck was on top of my right breast pocket. Maya was wearing an identical outfit, minus the insignia part. I noticed that everyone else was in the room. I was grateful that they were okay.

"Wow." Said Trent as he was staring at Maya

I have to admit, she was looking good.

"Let's ride." Said Maya

We all then walked to the mirror.

"Back to Earth Mosley." Said Michelle

Len and Maya went through the mirror first. Everyone was basically wearing a black version of what they usually wore, except that Leo and Crow were wearing long sleeved jackets.

"Guys, we're going to try a divide and conquer technique, for Xaviax is already on the move. We may be divided, but we're still connected." I said as I revealed my Mark of the Dragon

Everyone who had a mark revealed theirs. We all then went into the mirror. As I got out, I was clad in armor, and I was looking around for the target that I was looking for, when I found it.

"There you are. Now to make sure that the uglies behind me don't do anything stupid." I said as I caught the mirror monsters that were behind me from the corner of my eye.

I immediately pulled out my rapier from my belt, and charged in. But surprisingly, these monsters only needed a solid punch and a good kick to get rid of, meaning they worked great in swarms. Not a good idea when my Final Vent goes in correlation with Dawn's Final Vent. Oh well, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade, or in this case, get rid as many monsters as you can without using a Final Vent. I was carrying the device as I ran from the monsters behind me, when some more ambushed me in front. I then had an idea. I opened my Advent Reader.

"Guard Vent." Said a mechanical voice

A shield in the shape of a full moon appeared, and I used my Advent Reader to destroy the device. I got down on one knee, and used my shield as a cover from the explosion that followed it. That took out the rest of them. But before I had time to react, two more of them appeared from behind me, but just then, a fireball took care of them. I turned to the direction of where the attack came from, and I saw… Kit? Did Eubulon bring him back from the Advent Void?

"Kit?" I asked

"No. Adam." Said Adam

"You're Adam?" I wondered out loud

Cliffhanger! Yeah, I know, I'm cruel, aren't I? But hey, I have to admit, I had fun trying to write this episode, and it paid off. Anyhow, please review, check out my poll, and until next time, I'm sakuraphoenix, saying I heart you, signing off for now. Guo nian hao!
