World of Rider: The Abyss is an alternative dimension created by the Shard of the Riders. It's purpose was to serve as the hiding place for the Well of the Riders. In order to enter the Abyss a verbal code must be entered into the Maelstrom of the Riders. Once inside, the Abyss is a endless void expanding from the Well of the Riders. Dispite the absence of a light source, everything can be seen as if there is.


"How's it feel to be killed..." The thug with Redemption's Edge begins, "by your own gun."

"Funny." The Rider says as he looks at the pistol holstered on the thug's boot, "I was about to ask you the same thing."

The thug quickly tries to shoot Onyx, but he leans back, letting the chair fall and the buller hits the lock keeping the straps around him. Now free, Onyx grabs the thug's pistol, shoots him in the chin, drops the thug's gun, and catches Redemption's Edge. Onyx rolls out of the way of one thug's shot before rising and shooting all of them, leaving Rhyt and Cappuccino.

Onyx points his guns at Rhyt, who has his own guns aimed at Onyx. Cappuccino stands beside Rhyt.

"Are we done playing games for today?" The Rider asks.


"Finally" Malone says.

Malone takes out his scroll.

"Dispatch." Dispatch identities.

"This is Malone." Malone says.

"Roger, Detective Malone." Dispatch responds.

"I need backup." Malone states, "I'm at 43rd and Main Street."

"Right away, sir." Dispatch says.

"Malone, out." Malonr says before closing his scroll.


-Present Day-

"Look we want-" Onyx begins.

"Shhh!" Bog interrupts, "The code to the Maelstrom to get to the Abyss, I know. Keep it down. If these cutthroats thing your hear for something I have, they're gonna want their share... So Midas didn't make it. Poor guy. We fought together, you know. He left the code with me because he knew I was a tough nut to crack."

"Enough noise." Yang says, "You're coming with us."

"Not likely." Bog states, "They're not gonna let you walk out of here with me. And I don't think you would be able to fight your way out without bringing in some serious unwanted attention."

"But you have a suggestion." Anna says.

"All you have to do is challenge Choppa to a fight." Bog states, looking at Yang, "Choppa's the server is charge. Don't worry, it should be easy for a tough girl like you. You look like a fighter, judging by that face full of scar tissue, or were you born that way?"

Yang prepares to punch Bog, but Onyx puts his hand on her shoulder.

"Save it for Choppa." Onyx says.

"Got a challenger here!" Bog shouts, "This big girl wants to fight Choppa. Wager; she wins, I go free. She loses, you get to take my new friends here prisoner."

The other people in the gym start chanting.

A big, buff, dark skin male walks out. He is dress in a black leather jacket and pants with knee high boots.

"Wait. Wait. Wait." Ruby says, "No one agreed to that."

"Don't worry, sis." Yang says, "This'll be over real quick."

Yang steps forward to face Choppa. She activates Ember Cilica and starts with a few practice punches. Choppa, the big man from before slips his weapon, golden brass knuckles, onto his right hand.

Choppa roars into the air and charges at Yang. He hits her with a right hook. Yang goes for a left uppercut, but Choppa backs away. Yang hits Choppa with a right overhand punch instead. Choppa hits Yang with a right punch to the gut and goes for a right hook. Yang hits Choppa with a right hook first. She then grabs him and pulls Choppa into a knee. Choppa jumps into the air, but Yang grab his foot and slams Choppa into the ground. Yang hits Choppa with a right hook as he tries to rise, followed by an elbow drop.


"Big girl can really take a hit." Bog comments.

"Oh, she'll win." Ruby says.

"No, not a chance." Bog responds, "Choppa can't be beat, not like that."


Choppa grabs Yang and throws her into the wall. Yang gets up and charges, but Choppa hits her in the face with his weapon. Choppa grabs Yang by her head and tosses her into the ceiling. When Yang hits the ground, Choppa jumps onto her stomach. Choppa stands on Yang, victorious. He then kicks Yang over to Bog and the others.


Ruby kneels down besides her sister.

"Dirty... Giant..." Yang says before passing out.

"Nicely done." Bog comments, "Nicely done. Now how 'bout double or nothin'. My girl here, this tiny huntress, wants to fight Choppa."

Ruby turns to Bog in shock.

"Avenge her sister's honor and all that." Bog continues, "If by some miracle, she wins, not only do I go free, but I get to be your glorious leader again."

"What do we get when I win?" Choppa asks.

"If tiny here loses," Bog begins, "we forfeit our lives. All of them."

"Are you kidding?" Ruby asks.

"Your lives were forfeited the moment you walked in." Bog responds quietly, "The only way out is if I'm in charge."

Bog then returns to his shout.

"What about it?" He asks.

The fighters once again chant.

"One sec." Weiss interupts, "One second."

She turns to Bog.

"Look, under confidence has never been a problem for her," Weiss begins, "but old Choppa just mopped the floor and ceiling with Yang."

Onyx looks at Anna and nods.

Anna smirks and walks to Choppa.

"Boys, boys." Anna calls, "If you want a real game, invite a lady to play. Come on, let me fight. If I win, Bog goes free and becomes your leader. If I lose..."

Anna pops her katana out of the sheath slightly with her thumb.

"... he still goes free."

Before anyone can react, Onyx blast Choppa with one finger, sending him through the wall, across the street, and through a portal on the wall of the building across the street. Another portal opens on the ceiling and Choppa falls out, unconscious.

"All in." Onyx says, "Care to go for another round."

Yang wakes up and holds her head.

"Did I win?" She asks, groggily.


Now freed from his chains, Bog addresses his men.

"It's good to be back on top." Bog says, "I am the King!

The others in the gym cheer.

"Come on, your majesty, we had a deal." Onyx says, "The code to the Maelstrom, if you please."

"I am not pleased." Bog states, "I've had a little thinksy about it, and I've altered the deal. Now that I'm the leader of my group, I need to think about my men. They're a proud but simple folk and need to be taken care of."

"Touching." Yang comments, sarcastically.

"So in exchange for the code to the Maelstrom," Bog lists, "I want protection for myself, protection for my men, and the Shard of the Riders."

"How about you take it from me?" Onyx threatens.

"Deal." Bog says.

"You realize the Shard is bonded to me," Onyx states, "and even if it wasn't, you couldn't use it.

"I'll take my chances." Bog responds, "I mean, look at it. Such fine Rider craftsmanship.

A proximity alarm goes off.

"Oh! That's bad." Bog says as he checks to see what caused the alarm to go off, "Very bad."

All the scrolls in the gym suddenly go off.

"This is Amaranth of the Cultis Ex Ipsis." Amaranth's voice is projected throughout the scrolls, "Prepare for our arrival. We demand to see Acid Bog immediately, or we will kill him and everyone else."
