Disembodied Souls (vs. Gandrayda, part 3) - Ryugen's Super Genesis Transformation!
Tribute to: Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and Kamen Rider x Kamen Rider Drive & Gaim: Movie War Full Throttle
Author's Notes #1:
According to sources found from Wikitroid, what ever Gandrayda takes form into, has a "G" suffixed into the name. For instance, Rundas-G. Meaning it is the form she takes form into.
While I had a private conversation with one of the frequent reviewers of this story, Dash master 48, I told him that the forms Gandrayda will take form into are all Kaijins in the Kamen Rider series, and not to mention Kamen Riders as well during the course of the battle.
The love scenes between Samus and Mitsuzane are shout-outs to the Mass Effect series. That's why I can't seem to resist writing about the romance scenes between the two characters, as if Samus was Shephard, and Micchy being any of Shephard's love interests. Interestingly enough, the female Shephard is voiced by Jennifer Hale, the same one who provided Samus's grunting sounds from the Prime series.
The interior of the meteorite is the exact same one in the Proving Grounds in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption where the player fights Gandrayda.
The Racer Suit, one of Samus's Rider Suits being based on Kamen Rider Drive's Type Tridoron, is now renamed as the Tridoron Suit for the remainder of the story. The Tridoron Suit's properties shares that of Drive Type Formula and Drive Type Tridoron itself, that means; Samus can run at exaggerated supersonic speeds like Type Formula. The Charge Beam shot for the Tridoron Suit emulates Drive's Trailer Big Impact finisher, which projects the Tridoron itself as the bullet. Unlike Drive Type Tridoron who immediately reverts to his standard form after using the Trailer-Hou, Samus does not revert to her Power Suit's original appearance, as she can still maintain the suit until at a given limit.
Gandrayda's portrayal here in this arc would be even more sadomasochistic by nature.

-Round 1-
Go finds himself being rag-dolled after a brief speed battle against Gandrayda. Within moments, the extraterrestrial bounty hunter transform into the Evolved Medic Roidmude, and entangles Mach with her tentacles.
Medic-G throws Mach towards Samus, Mitsuzane, Takatora, and Kouta before reverting to her form again. The impact of how Gandrayda, who at that moment transformed as the Medic's Roidmude form, doubled the damage to both Samus and Mitsuzane.
"She can change into different forms..." Takatora said with grimace.
Samus asks Go to get serious in this fight. "Pull yourself together, Go!" Despite Gandrayda mocking the party.
"Samus, what should we do?" Kouta asked. As Samus starts planning a strategy all while the party immediately avoid every attacks by Gandrayda.
(soundtrack: "Ranbu Escalation" from Kamen Rider Gaim: Music Arms; Lyrics by: Shoko Fujibayashi; Composition and Arrangement by: Shuhei Naruse; Performed by: Gaku Sano (actor of Kazuraba Kouta) and Yutaka Kobayashi (actor of Kaito Kumon))
[~Oretachi ga saikyou no~]
[~Chikara te ni ireta to shite~]
[~Sono ato ni kono me ni wa~]
[~Donna sekai utsuru no ka...~]
"That's it! Everyone, we have to box Gandrayda in! Go, take the western terminus of the area. Kazuraba, you take the eastern terminus of this room. Takatora, stall Gandrayda. Mitsuzane, we're going to corner her from the north and southern sides. Move!" Samus instructed, as the party scrambles to their position.
[Sano: ~Arasoi wa mata arasoi no tane nokoshi toki ga tatsu mama kanashimi no mi wo sodateru~]
[Kobayashi: ~Nigetai no nara orireba ii kono BATORU wo risou narabete kanau hodo amakunai~]
Takatora, as the White Armored Rider Zangetsu drawing out the Musou Saber from his holster as he proceeds to charge into combat against Gandrayda. Meanwhile, Gandrayda suddenly transformed into Kamen Rider Baron in Lemon Energy Arms!
[Sano: ~Daremo ga, jibun ga~]
[Kobayashi: ~...motomeru~]
[All: ~Mirai wo mezase~]
*LEMON ENERGY ARMS! FIGHT! POWER! FIGHT! POWER! FI-FI-FI-FI-FI-FIGHT!*
Takatora proceeds clashing swords with Baron-G Lemon Energy Arms.
"Signal Bike! Signal Koukan!" Mach inserts Signal Kaksarn on his belt. "Kaksarn!"
"Shooter Kaksarn!" the Zenrin Shooter declared after Mach presses his belt's ignition button. Causing the bullets to diffuse and rain around Gandrayda, as Takatora gets out of harm's way. Moments later, Baron-G mutates into Lord Baron-G. Forcing Takatora to switch from Kouta's position, who immediately transforms from Kachidoki Arms...
"Fruits Basket!"...he immediately drew out the Kiwami Lockseed. "LOCK OPEN!" when his Sengoku Driver materializes its Senyo Joint, he inserts the Kiwami Lockseed on the left side of the Sengoku Driver with the Senyo Joint fitted in.
"Kiwami Arms! Dai-Dai-Dai-Dai-Dai Shogun!" The Sengoku Driver and Kouta's lockseeds declared.
[~Oretachi ga saikyou no~]
[~Chikara te ni ireta to shite~]
"MANGO PUNISHER!" a mango-like mace in the form of the Mango Punisher comes flying at Gaim's reach as he starts mashing Lord Baron-G. Forcing Gandrayda to revert back again.
[~Sono ato ni kono me ni wa~]
[~Donna sekai utsuru no darou~]
"That hurt. I gotta say, I never seen fruits can be used as a weapon. Tee-hee!" Gandrayda said in a flighty tone as she starts going toe-to-toe with Gaim. Gandrayda pushes Kouta back when she snatches the Mango Punisher from his hands, using it against him as she gains the upper hand.
"Samus, Micchy!" the two regroup with Kouta.
"KURUMI BOMBER! BUDOU RYUHOU! DURI NOKKO!" Kouta summons three more Arms Weapons. With Samus using Knuckle's Kurumi Bombers, a boxing glove-like weapon. Micchy taking a replica of his signature weapon as he dual-wields it, and Kouta using Bravo's signature weapon, as he clashes with Gandrayda again, who immediately transforms into Gaim's alternate reality counterpart, Bujin Gaim.
*BLOOD ORANGE ARMS! JA NO MICHI ON STAGE!*
Mitsuzane goes Wild West style as he activates his Sengoku Driver's Sparking function, all while shooting with both two guns at Bujin Gaim-G. As Samus delivers a straight punch with the Kurumi Bombers at Bujin Gaim-G. Suddenly, Gandrayda reverts and disappears.
"It seems she's going stealth... Go, bring the rain!" Samus asks Go to fire a hail of bullets around the field to reveal Gandrayda.
"Shooter Kaksarn!"
A hail of bullets coming from Mach stormed the field, causing Gandrayda's cloaking device to be rendered useless.
[Sano: ~Joukyou dakai shiteku hodo ni~]
[Kobayashi: ~…shihai suru hodo ni~]
[All: ~Kiwami Escalation!~]
"My turn!" Go exclaimed, as he spins the Zenrin Shooter's wheel several times, with an exclamation of "ZENRIN!", he smashes Gandrayda with it.
"Mmm... That felt so good!" Gandrayda sounded so masochistic.
(soundtrack: "Leave all Behind" from Kamen Rider W (2010); Lyrics by: Shoko Fujibayashi; Composed by: Ryo of defspiral; Performed by: Wilma-sidr)
"If only Terui-san is here..." Go said, while the song 'Leave all Behind' plays.
[~I wanna make you satisfied choukousoku de tsurete iku ze~]
[~Mayotteteru hima wa nai come ride with me~]
"MELON SQUASH!" after Zangetsu activates his Sengoku Driver's Squash Function, he throws his Melon Defender at Gandrayda before the shield comes back to him as he immediately slashes Gandrayda with a string of sword swings. Thus, allowing the party to gain the upper hand.
[~Riyuu nado don't ask me why setsumei nante dekinai hodo~]
[~Kono omoi hageshikute tomerarenai dare ni mo~]
"Wow, Sammy... I never seen you have these knights in white armor with you." Gandrayda sneered, who just immediately transformed into the Sagittarius Nova.
[~Shinzou ga uchi narasu rhythm de, you go ahead~]
[~Hi wo tsukero Mune no Ignition~]
Sagittarius Nova-G again turns the tables on Mach and Zangetsu, Takatora was able to avoid Gandrayda's emulated flying kick while taking the form of Sagittarius Nova. Afterwards, she reverts back.
[~Nanimokamo furikitte! Mirai e susume Speed away~]
[~Dare ni mo oitsukenai hodo Leave all behind~]
Mach proceeds to insert Signal Tomarle. "Signal Bike! Signal Koukan! Tomarle!", by spinning the Zenrin Shooter's wheel for three times, and by pressing the Mach Driver Honoh's boost ignition button three times, it stated "Imasugu Tomarle!", causing the wheel of the weapon to glow yellow. Doing so, Go proceeds to strike Gandrayda on the chest, with the weapon coming contact paralyzes her, all while a stop sign being projected onto Gandrayda. (A/N #2: "imasugu" translates as 'right now')
[~Keshiki ga tokeru hodo Kaze ga sakebidasu hodo~]
[~Accel... Ima wa...~]
"Hahahahahahahahaha! That's right baby, give it all you have! You make me aroused!" Gandrayda laughed. "Come on, boys. Arouse me some more! I want this to be a fight I won't forget!"
[~Nanimokamo furikitte! Kanashimi sae mo throw away~]
[~Zetsubou made hakonde yuku Leave all behind~]
"Right back at you!" Go answered. As Gandrayda pushes Mach away, she is caught off guard by a two way Rider Kick from Gaim and Ryugen.
[~Oto ni oitsuku hodo Jikan wo nuki saru hodo~]
[~Accel... Sora no hate made hashire... YEAH!~]
Moments later, Gandrayda changes into Kamen Rider Necrom!
*Tengan! Necrom! Mega Uloud! CRUSH THE INVADER!*
Samus immediately charges towards Gandrayda through speed booster.
"Okay, Gandrayda. It's my turn to take you for a spin!" Samus declared, as she activates the Tridoron Suit. "FIRE ALL ENGINES!", Samus shouted the Rider Suit's activation command; in which happens to be the activation sequence for Shift Tridoron.
(soundtrack: "UNLIMITED DRIVE" from Kamen Rider Drive; Lyrics by: Shoko Fujibayashi; Composed by: DJ Hurrykenn; Performed by: Kamen Rider Girls)
[~Asette iru no ni koware sou na noni onnaji keshiki no naka de~]
[~karamitsui te kuru yokoshima na G-force mie nai ashikase mitai ni~]
*RIDER TRANSFORMATION COMMAND CONFIRMED*
*PREPARE TO DISENGAGE ALL POWER SUIT COMPARTMENTS IN 4... 3... 2... 1...*
Samus's actual Power Suit breaks apart, revealing her Fusion Suit, which immediately desaturates into a deep black color. Within moments, the Tridoron itself made its presence known as it entered the meteorite. It then runs into Gandrayda, who is still taking form of Necrom-G.
[~Ah tomatte i tara mata shizuka ni~]
[~tokei no hari mirai o kizami~]
[~Ah sono bun dake okizari ni sare te~]
A set of tire tracks began to surround Samus, then the Tridoron starts glowing as it immediately disassembles itself, to form the Tridoron Suit's armor pieces. All of Kamen Rider Drive's Shift Cars began to absorb themselves into Samus's desaturated Fusion Suit, and all of the Tridoron's remains began merging with Samus's undersuit, completing her transformation into the Kamen Rider Drive Type Tridoron based Tridoron Suit.
[~Get up speed furikiru shika nai~]
[~Like a stream ima o nukedasu nara~]
Engines revving are heard as Samus, now donning the Tridoron Suit turns to Necrom-G.
[~negau mirai ni dakyou ha shi nai de~]
"I can do a lot much better than you, Gandrayda." Samus smirked. "That's why... My brain cells are in top gear!" all while quoting Shinnosuke's catchphrases.
[~hashiritsuduke te iko u... tatakaitsuduke te kou...~]
[~genkai o koe te iko u... UNLIMITED...~]
Samus begins to batter Gandrayda with a string of super fast speed attacks across the room. Forcing her to revert to her normal form from her Necrom-G form. She then emulates Drive Type Tridoron's Rider Kick, pushing Gandrayda back to a corner.
[~...DRIVE!~]
Kouta and Mitsuzane regrouped with Samus, who is now charging her arm cannon at full power, all while Krim's voice within her suit to exclaim "Hissatsu! FULL THROTTLE!"
Gaim immediately readies his DJ Gun, with the Orange Lockseed loaded on the weapon. Ryugen once again activates his Sengoku Driver function as he aims his Budou Ryuhou at Gandrayda.
"Samus! Kouta-san! Let's do this!" Mitsuzane exclaims, as upon pulling the trigger. His gun fires out a Chinese dragon at Gandrayda.
"Fruits Basket: ORANGE CHARGE!" Gaim immediately fires the DJ Gun at Gandrayda...
"FULL FULL TRIDORON! BIG TAI HOU!" ...Samus fires her Charge Beam at full power, with the projectile immediately taking form of the Tridoron itself, complete with the engine revving, as the projection of the Tridoron races over Gandrayda as it engulfs her with the explosion.
-Round 2-
(soundtrack: "Heaven and Earth" by Two Steps from Hell)
"Did we got her?" Kouta clarified. But, he spoke too soon, as Gandrayda emerges from the smoke, albeit dazed.
"I'm just gettin' started!" Gandrayda said with a smirk. "Wow, Sammy. Did they even taught you about teamwork. I thought you are a one-woman army!", she continues mocking Samus.
"I don't believe it... She is more cunning what Samus have thought." Mitsuzane muttered.
"That's right, honey. Hee hee..." Gandrayda giggled. "And you people are so boring!"
"What?!" It seems Mitsuzane is even infuriated by Gandrayda's flightiness, and he's had enough. He takes matters into his own hands, as he changes into Ryugen Kiwi Arms.
"Micchy, no!" Kouta screamed.
As Ryugen proceeds to lash out at Gandrayda with the Kiwi Gekirin, she dodges his attacks with a little to no effort.
"My, my... Reckless aren't we?" she continues toying with Mitsuzane even further.
"Make that two!" Go then intercepts Gandrayda, as he and Mitsuzane altogether launched a two-way flying side kicks at her, pushing Gandrayda back.
(soundtrack: "Dragon Rider" by Two Steps from Hell)
Within moments, a belt began to materialize on Gandrayda's hips, in the form of the Faiz Driver! The phone also appeared on her right hand.
Gandrayda dials '5-5-5' on the Faiz Phone, causing it to say "STANDING BY!" With a flighty and seductive chant of "Henshin!", she inserts the phone onto the belt.
"COMPLETE!" the belt said in a computerized voice. With Gandrayda transformed into Kamen Rider Faiz, also called Faiz-G.
Faiz-G quickly grabs the Axel Memory from the watch on her left hand, then inserts it onto the Faiz Belt.
"Complete!" stated the belt. As Faiz-G changes into Faiz Axel Form, as Faiz-G's chest-plate flips diagonally on the shoulders, and the red linear patterns immediately turned white.
Upon pressing the Faiz Axel Watch, with a computerized voice saying "START UP!". With that being said, it initiates a 10-second countdown. Faiz-G immediately lunges at Mach and Ryugen at high speeds. Samus regroups with Go and Mitsuzane.
"Let's go, Sammy-chan!" Go is pumped up, as he presses the boost ignition of his belt three times, with the belt itself saying "Zutto MAHHA!", Mach proceeds to charge at Gandrayda, with Samus following after, still donning the Tridoron Suit.
Mach, Samus, and Faiz-G Axel Form clash at unprecedented speeds. Mach and Faiz-G exchange punches, only for them to be pushed back. Then Samus, strikes Gandrayda from behind with high speeds through the Tridoron Suit. Both Samus with the Tridoron Suit and Mach managed to even the odds as their respective forms can out speed, even Kamen Rider Faiz's Axel Form.
Faiz-G manages to parry Mach's right hand, who was about to give him a punch.
"This is where we part ways, love.", said Gandrayda.
"After you." Go throws it back right at her.
*3... 2... 1... TIME OUT!*
After that, Gandrayda reverts back. She immediately knocks Mach away. Then turns her attention to Samus and Mitsuzane.
-Ryugen Melon Energy Arms!-
"Now that white gnat is out of the way. Perhaps I can deal with you this easily, Samus." Gandrayda teased; only for Mitsuzane to get angrier. "But first, I'll start with my prize right here."
Gandrayda continued... "Well, well, well. So your name is Mitsuzane Kureshima. What a sweet name.", she said while giving him a disturbing, sadomasochistic expression.
Mitsuzane said nothing at all, as he felt tremendous amount of pressure. Needless to say, he is slightly afraid of Gandrayda, but he can't seem to take her very lightly. He charges at Gandrayda, only for him to be at her mercy. Gandrayda changes into Kamen Riders Ryuki, Ghost Toucon Boost Damashii, and Kuuga Titan Form, overpowering him.
This causes Mitsuzane to be canceled from his transformation. He is badly beaten, but still stands out of sheer will. Gandrayda continues to make Mitsuzane her own punching bag. And each time Mitsuzane takes damage, Samus's Energy Tanks began to drain rapidly!
"Micchy!" Kouta and Mai cried out, as their friend is in mortal danger.
"Mitsuzane!" Takatora tries to save his brother, who happens to be lying on the ground. As Gandrayda attempts to molest the young Kureshima.
"Tee-hee-hee. It's over boy!" Gandrayda gloated. "I enjoyed abusing you. Care to try that again?"
"Why you..." Mitsuzane seethes, as Gandrayda restrains him, all while finding a way to shake her off.
Just all seemed lost for Mitsuzane, his left eye began to change color - to that of Samus's tinted-blue eyes! He began to tap into a strange power, and with that being said, he punches Gandrayda in the face several times to shake her off.
"What the-" said Gandrayda with a look of disbelief.
In Samus's point of view, another screen began to appear on her visor; which happens to be through Mitsuzane's point of view, she can see what he is doing, as she notices he begins to shake Gandrayda off.
Once Mitsuzane stood up, everybody regrouped, including Kouta and Mai, with him.
"Micchy, are you hurt?" asked the Woman of the Beginning.
"It's fine. I can still stand." Mitsuzane answered. "In fact, it's nothing in comparison from everything in the past."
"Mitsuzane, you need to use these right now." Takatora said, giving his brother their Genesis Driver, and the Melon Energy Lockseed.
"Thank you, nii-san." Mitsuzane smiled awkwardly. "For the meantime, let me finish the fight myself."
"By yourself?" Takatora pouted his lip. "Don't be stupid, let us-"
"Let him, Takatora." Kouta interrupted calmly. "In fact, Micchy wants this to finish it quickly, to prove how much you two progressed this far. It's pretty amazing how Micchy looked up to Samus because of her abilities."
"You do have a point, Kazuraba." Takatora agrees. "Mitsuzane, we're counting on you!"
Gandrayda looked rather flabbergasted on what's going on. "Samus, what did you do to him?"
"This is what he had wished for, Gandrayda." Samus said, as she stands on Mitsuzane's side. And having reverted back to her original Varia Suit. "We are now sharing each others pain. This is a reminder of how many those close to me have died right before my very eyes such as you, Ghor, and Rundas. This boy has nearly lost his brother they once quarreled, and that's why he is something that I don't want to lose, and the same thing with him."
(soundtrack: Ending (Metroid) from Super Smash Bros. For 3DS and Wii U)
Mitsuzane has some words for Gandrayda, "It's true. I once let myself isolated from the rest of the world because of the enormity of crimes I've committed against all of humanity. But, Kouta-san and Mai-san have finally let me see the light! Even though I still hate myself and living a life full of regret for everything that happen in the past; no one had ever gave up on me, such as my brother, and along came new friends - Samus and Shijima-senpai! I finally moved forward to face my future. I don't need to make anyone happy anymore, but those people have began to be close to me already did! Even if you continue to use me as a punching bag over and over again, I will still stand up!"
"Woah, I'm touched.", Gandrayda sarcastically said. But is, however, touched by Mitsuzane's metaphor. "Seems you really wanted something to atone for your sins."
"That's right!" Mitsuzane continued. "I'd rather be dead than being your boy toy! If in case you don't know there is already someone who treasures my heart the most... And to prove it, we settle this here, ONE ON ONE!"
"Okay, Mitsuzane. We're counting on you." Samus said as Mitsuzane equips his Genesis Driver.
"I see... You love her?" Gandrayda asked, referring to Samus.
"You don't need to ask. And that's the answer. Henshin!" Mitsuzane stated, as he unlocks the Melon Energy Lockseed.
"LOCK ON!"
"SODA!" the Genesis Driver stated in a rather, excited computerized voice, as the melon-like armor part drops above Mitsuzane's head.
"MELON ENERGY ARMS!" the belt said, followed by a Japanese techno music playing. With that being said, Ryugen's undersuit materializes, as the giant melon began to split and to merge onto Mitsuzane; this time transforming him into Ryugen Melon Energy Arms!
"Mitsuzane... How in the world did you manage to maintain your Sengoku Driver's Ride Wear?" Takatora was left a loss for words when Mitsuzane transforms as Ryugen with Zangetsu Shin's armor parts instead of transforming into Zangetsu Shin itself.
"Micchy... Is that your new form?" asked Kouta, who is still in Gaim's Kiwami Arms.
"Yes, Kouta-san. Thanks to Samus's help, she managed to figure there is something on the Energy Lockseeds, much like how Kaito transformed with Baron and the Lemon Energy Arms." Mitsuzane replied.
"Here I go!", Mitsuzane exclaims as he charges towards Gandrayda.
To be continued...
Author's Note #3:
The way Go faced Gandrayda as Faiz Axel Form is a reminiscent from Super Hero Taisen GP Kamen Rider 3. It is a speed battle so to speak.
The Rider Suit transformations is, as usual, inspired from Armor Digivolution.
