Yes, yes, we're still alive! I don't think I've used this transformation for a while now... Kamen rider just does that thing where you use a form once or twice, then bye bye for the rest of the show. I've been trying to compensate for the lack of Lazer level 2 in the show here and as for the other forms... yeah, maybe next time. Anyway, let's go!

super hero time!

Takumi: Ex-aid, get ready to fight because you're all in a crisis!

Ex-aid: Heroic spirits aren't exactly zombies... but they all pack a really heavy punch!

Takumi: A fighting game and a puzzle game... easy to win, difficult to master. Can you handle it?

Ex-aid: I'll beat them without using a continue, even if they're both at the same time!

T + E-a: The story begins! Game start!


GASHAT!

BuGgLe Up!

DANGER-DANGER! (GeNoCiDe!)DEATH THE CRISIS! DANGEROUS ZOMBIE! (*ROAR!*)

As the zombie gamer smashed her way through the hologram before her and the smoke dispersed, IF couldn't help but notice a few critical things about the way that the armour, and subsequently the girl beneath, held herself. It was no longer stumbling as it dashed forward, movements with purpose bringing a hand to the side to grab at the Gashacon sparrow that somehow answered her call. The primal roars of rage were quickly replaced with precise grunts, an actual human exerting themselves as they forced their way towards Para-DX. However, the perfect –knockout gamer was easily able to block the swinging overhead strike with but a single hand, pushing away the black and white rider with a sigh.

"Zombie gamer level 10. Without your powers of revival, you simply have nothing that can match the powers we hold." Pallad sighed as a strange axe appeared in his hand, a press of the red button letting him turn the had to reveal a barrel that quickly sent several shots pummelling into Natsumi, the girl flying back to be caught by Compa. "Don't try to interfere in a fight that isn't yours!"

"Wow, that looked like it really hurt…" the nurse in training winced, looking over the armour and the smoke that wafted off of it. It was certainly not dented in any way, but the same couldn't be said of the person within. Seeing the way that the cursed armour flew didn't change the alarm that Egi felt however; inside was one of his patients – that meant he had to do everything he could to protect her, for her life was once more within his hands.

GASHACON KEYSLASHER!

GASHACON SLICER!

The two weapons soared through the air towards the monk like rider, Pallad leaping back as the massive body of the revolution gamer launched forward after his tools, the fist flying like mad to send the cutting edges into a fury. Every move however was matched perfectly by the nimble movements of Para-DX, somehow able to match each and every flailing limb without issue before the gun started to fire into Egi's chest to send him backward in a shower of sparks.

"Isn't this what it's meant to be between gamers?" Pallad taunted, the weapon held in his hands threatening to slip out with how casual he was being. "When you're the same level, you only have your experience to fall back on…and I definitely have a lot more experience than you, don't you think?"

"There's no way we can match this guy if he's calling himself level 99…" IF muttered, her arms folding as the other humans could only watch the battle before them. "He'll beat down any of us immediately and the highest we can go with Egi is level five… What are we meant to do in this situation?"

"We can't just stand about…!" 5pb declared, her fists tightening as she picked up her guitar with more courage than ever, her fingers admittedly trembling against the strings as she mustered as much of that confidence to her face. "We need to do something, there has to be something we can do! Sitting around doing nothing won't get us anywhere!"

Natsumi could only sit in silence within her armour as she pondered. The armour she held was apparently the power of level 10, and everyone else save the two currently battling were even lower than that… which meant that she was currently the highest level not involved within the battle! What other choice did she have but to defend the people like Egi was doing right now!?

ZU DOON!

"Act as a distraction! Do everything you can to stop that bad man from blocking against Mr Egi!" Natsumi ordered, the redhead flying forward with several arrows immediately flying from her now reassembled bow. The shots were easily deflected by Para-DX, but that simply meant he was unable to defend against the sudden strike from the Gashacon slicer, the navy scythe cutting into him with a bright burst of sparks.

"Now that's something I believe I can assist with." MAGES. Declared with a smirk, her staff already glowing with an unearthly power as 5pb began her strumming, Compa and IF too charging up their attacks. Neptune could only look to the other goddesses as Tekken cracked her fists with a surprisingly sadistic smile completely uncharacteristic of the girl, a bright smile upon her face.

"Well, I guess if we're goddesses, we can't just leave another CPU in need, can we?" the purple haired girl remarked before barely a second later, Purple Heart was zooming into the battle, a sword aimed directly at the head of the red and blue rider.

"Well when you put it like that, it only makes sense." Vert giggled as the gloved hand slowly changed into a bare one as the rest of her clothes turned into the bright white plug suit, Green Heart giving a small moment of silence before the green portal spat out a large spear, one that was easily kicked forward by Egi with a yell of gratitude towards Pallad.

"Well, I'm not going to be left out of this brawl, that's for sure!" Blanc was already White Heart y the time her hammer was soaring through the sky, a slam onto the ground having Pallad slightly lose his footing. That small difference however was just what was needed in order to let Egi enter the guard and receive a bright punch to his face.

"Geez, why do you have to make me look bad by making me last to act!?" Noire cried out with puffed out cheeks before Black Heart too joined the brawl. Perhaps before Pallad stood a chance in one on one combat, a far greater chance than Egi had, but when they added in a good number of warriors launching swords, fists, the elements and much more towards him in combination to the raw power held within Egi's newest gashat, he was simply unable to keep up with the violence, thrown away by a rocket like kick to the chest.

GACHAAN!

KIMEOUJA!

GACHAA!

FORCE OF – REVOLUTION CRITICAL STRIKE!

The energy charged body rammed straight into Pallad, every inch of Egi glowing as he gave a great roar, the enemy rider landing upon the ground in a pile of rubble.

CRITICAL END!

But that was not to be the end of it however as with another cry, Natsumi also fell from the sky straight onto him, a spinning mass of ripping and tearing that set the sky alight with how many sparks flew from the rider. Compared to what had happened before, it did relatively little damage to the rider, Pallad even having the gall to give a little chuckle as he managed to pluck out his own gashat to place within his weapon.

GASHUUN!

GASHAT!

KIMEOUJA!

KNOCKOUT CRTICAL FINISH!

"Don't think I'm done!" Natsumi was sent flying away, only Egi's swift handling preventing her from slamming into the ground as Pallad got to his feet, only a little worse for wear. Before he disappeared in a burst of red and blue pixels, Egi was quick to catch the paper of sorts that was thrown his way, setting Natsumi to the ground as both lost their own transformations.

GASHUUN!

GACHAAN!

GASHUUN!


Did you truly believe you were the only one who would be transported to this world? I should be proof enough for you but that would be telling spoilers. Allow me to explain just why you are here and why your precious little patient is with you.

There are countless worlds out there; I learnt that first hand when speaking with a particular physicist who wields a similar power. Yours is a world that holds no kamen riders, as was this one before we were brought here. But then there was an issue that could only be answered by a kamen rider, one that just so happened to be you. Bringing you other was however a risk – the higher powers couldn't afford to bring other someone who wouldn't prove themselves able to fight and thus, the extra visitors you see.

Little Natsumi Yuuki, the current patient you had before your transfer. You certainly held a very special bond with her, didn't you? Well, I can't say I know for sure, but that is the only reason why she would've been brought along with you. After all, they needed something that could be used against you should you ever decide to not fight; blackmail to ensure a hero remains a hero. Of course, like I said, the higher powers didn't want someone who couldn't fight, meaning they brought her earlier to grow and become stronger to assist you. I can't say what happened to make her as she was before your little trick though.

And I suppose that brings things to me… maybe. Maybe I'll be kind enough to tell you the truth at a later period but I don't think you need to know everything just yet. Have fun with this knowledge, because I've certainly got more tricks up my sleeves and who knows what else is coming your way.

The letter was held within the doctor's hand as he sat at the sofa within his Basilicom, Toei reading from other his shoulder as the rest of the party stood in silence around them. Natsumi stood off to the side, her head bowed as she too took in the entirety of the message given to her; she was meant to act as a blackmail hostage in case her doctor didn't want to start fighting? How would things have been different if the man was much more unwilling at the start?

"So we've got this, but Arfoire managed to go wherever she is…"the oracle sighed, messing with the end of the scarf wound around her neck. "I don't think we have any chance of tracing her either considering the battle that occurred straight afterward. From what I understand, a whole ton of people looked about the place but with nothing to come back with."

"A true shame... and just when I wished to go on the offensive." Vert lamented. "Still, it seems as if Egi's power has proven himself to be exactly what we need. With this, it I simply a case of making sure that we can remove the powers held by Arfoire without any sort of external interference."

"In the letter, Pallad stated that he had more tricks up his sleeves… what do you think he's going to do next?" 5pb whispered, the songstress hugging her arm closer to her body. "If he's at the same level as Egi, there's no way the powers you gave us could match that, even with the dragon."

"So the basic idea is to come up with another power? How realistic is that?" Noire countered, her arms folding. "After all, we're quite lucky that Egi's power managed to work considering how it apparently failed at first. What else can you do that would work in such a small time frame?"

"Denizens of the world! Can you all hear me?"

The sudden voice had them all thrown, Egi looking to the window; barely a soul that would be able to project their voice to such an extent was visible. It certainly hadn't come from the intercom and there was really only one voice it could've been.

"Was that Arfoire?" Falcom asked. "How was she able to do that? Is that another of her powers"?

"The most likely idea is that she has managed to return to Celestia actually." Histoire interrupted, the book fairy curling in on herself. "If she were to do so, projecting herself to be heard by everyone in Gamindustri would be a simple task. You must be careful, all of you, for we cannot tell what she would do when she's desperate."

"Do you know what fate awaits you all? With my powers as God, I shall crush the world beneath under my might!"

"That is certainly rather stranger coming from a woman who had her mighty beast destroyed." MAGES. stated, looking to the skies as quite a few did during that time across the world. "So she speaks from Celestia… I suppose this is an honour of its own sort."

A sudden trembling had them all moving to the ground, an earthquake somehow tearing through Genmeer until it stopped without warning, picking themselves up, only Histoire was upright throughout the whole thing, muttering to herself in alarm until she saw Egi's questioning look.

"If that was what I believe it is, then we're in dire danger indeed…" Histoire cried, pulling gently upon her hair. "She holds the power of four CPUs and is currently in Celestia, meaning she has enough power to potentially cause all of the landmasses that make up Gamindustri to collide! The only one which has a chance of remaining safe is Planeptune!"

"You mean she's going to try and crush everything!?" the doctor exclaimed, his hands slamming upon the table before him. "Then what are we waiting for, we need to stop this immediately!"

He knew the science. For Gamindustri to stay the way that it was, the different landmasses had to be within each other's gravity and be stable; pushing them into each other was definitely going to cause some mess with the gravity and if that were to happen, there might not even be a chance for them to bring Gamindustri back to the way it was even if they managed to survive the initial collision.

"But if we are to go to Celestia, how exactly are we meant to get there? Isn't it meant to be a place where only the goddesses could enter?" Compa rightfully questioned. "Can Egi even get in there in the first place? I mean, he is a CPU…"

"There should be a gate within the basilicom that will allow all of you to enter without issue, hopefully." Histoire declared, a hand reaching for her chin. "Unfortunately, if the different landmasses are converging, then there is a chance the portals might be starting to become unstable and there certainly isn't a quick and easy one we can access here… for your safety, you must all go to the Planeptune basilicom. Please hurry – before we find it too late for anything to return to the way that it was."

The gate itself was a rather interesting area. Seemingly a great room of silver humming with a celestial energy, everyone who entered found themselves in awe. Taking a few tentative steps in, Egi was relieved to find stable footing, for the odd quakes had been rampant before and when you were a motorbike, it certainly made such things a little bit more awkward.

"This is the gate which will allow us all to ascend to Celestia." Histoire introduced, flying in front of the group. "We don't have much time to waste, so I must ask you to make your way into this device."

It was a rather tight squeeze as they all pushed in, Egi rather eager to face the wall as he found both Compa and Noire pressed up behind him. When he was simply working his job before, there was no way he could even dream of being placed in a situation like this, let alone be actually situated within a giant machine beyond all knowledge that was to bring him up basically to heaven while doing it! Admittedly, he was also never expecting to be going to heaven in order to defeat a faux god and prevent the world from imploding – first times all around.

A bright flash quickly drew the doctor from his thoughts as he prepared for the battle that was soon to come, but at Neptune's questioning sound once the machine died down, he could only try to peer over the heads to see Histoire flying about desperately, clear that they certainly hadn't made it to their intended destination.

"I suppose it only makes sense considering who made it there first, but it looks Celestia is denying us access." Histoire stated, a dark look upon her face. "If we can't use the gate, then there must be a second way for us to access it… there just has to be another way to get to Celestia!"

"Is there some other sort of legend we can use? Like with the weapons?" Tekken hesitantly suggested, the fighter's hand rising above the group. "Isn't there a story about the legendary quartet of heroes magically finding a way to Celestia?"

The way the girl phrased it certainly made it seem as if it were a long pull, but Histoire's face immediately lit up at the prospect, almost as if the raw data was flowing through her very eyes as she suddenly began to zoom back and forth rapidly, her own form of pacing.

"That might actually be something we could do! How could I have forgotten about the legendary rainbow bridge?" the tome declared loudly. "It is a path set by the legendary quartet that leads all the way to Celestia.

"I've got to admit, this is starting to sound a little too good to be true." IF dismissed, though it was Falcom's little shrug that had her opinion expressed.

"Well, if the legend before managed to end up true, don't you think some other aspects from their story could have some truth behind them as well?" the redheaded adventure reasoned.

"Well, there's also the chance that even if it does exist, it could be in an unusable state. Such a thing is bound to have faced many years without use as well." MAGES. countered.

"From what I understand, it should be ready to at any moment and the only thing we need in order for that to happen is the keys to activate it with." The blonde fairy explained, Egi giving a nod.

"So we just need to use the keys in order to get to Celestia? Then let's do this!"


We're racing to the finish and it can only end one way! Yes, I have an idea for Hyper Muteki as well to fit my own little line and let's just say there's something I've set a little precedent for that will pop up once again! I have to thank you for sticking around this long if you're still reading and hello to any newcomers (if there even are anymore coming in at this stage.)

Super hero time! See you next time!
