Ultraman Z: The Masters of Xeno

Natsukawa Haruki, a 16 year old young man is seen running forward on a street as a battle is going on beside him as there was a lot of smashing and explosions.

He had short black hair and navy blue eyes, he was wearing a grey bodysuit with a black belt and boots, he was also wearing a black combat vest along with white and black armored gloves, elbow and knee pads, with a white helmet and was carrying a high tech white rifle in his hands.

The reason why he was running is simple, and the reason is this.

Both Haruki and his childhood friend Amami Haruka, were invited to join a group called Mondenkind.

At first Haruka thought it was a talent agency, and Haruki thought that it was the name of a company that was hosting a mixed martial arts tournament.

But actually the group is actually an earth defense force whose mission was to defend the Earth from meteorites known as Drops, giant kaijus, and extraterrestrial threats.

The group was founded some time after the great disaster known as Lost Artemis.

The disaster had occurred 107 years ago as the moon was destroyed by unknown force. This event caused numerous fragments to fall onto the Earth, which killed about one quarter of the Earth's total population and which also awakened the kaijus that was sleeping on Earth to awaken and soon went on a rampage, and soon after that the Earth was also a target of extraterrestrial lifeforms to occur the rare moon fragments.

Haruka was invited due to the fact she was chosen to pilot one of Mondenkind's robots known as IDOL, Immortal Defender of Legatee. The IDOL she pilots was known as Prometheus–1 Imber, which was inactive and sealed away for some time, until Haruka had arrived which awakened the sleeping machine, and thus she became an Idolmaster.

While Haruki was invited to join Mondenkind's ground forces, due to his extraordinary athletic abilities and mastery of several different martial arts. The ground forces are led by captain and senior Mondenkind member, Hebikura Shota, and their role is to support the Idolmasters in their ground combat against kaijus.

And right now, Haruka is fighting against a kaiju that has arrived on Earth from space.

Haruki stops as he sees Haruka inside of Imber pushing that kaiju back.

The kaiju almost resembles a shark and was standing on two legs and had arms with three claws and has a large blade on the tip of its head and has sharp teeth.

This is the Ferocious Space Shark Genegarg.

Genegarg managed to push Imber back and fired at the IDOL with energy missiles from its back, which created a large explosion around Imber's body.

"Haruka!" Haruki shouted in worry as Haruka screamed and as Imber was falling to the ground.

Genegarg slowly marches at Imber to finish it and Haruka off.

Haruki grits his teeth as he fires at the kaiju with energy bullets, which got the Space Shark's attention as he turns at him as Haruki was waving at him.

"Hey Shark Face, I'm over here! Come get me!" Haruki calls out as he continues to fire at Genegarg as he backs away.

Genegarg roars as he marches at Haruki which forces him to turn around and run away as the kaiju follows him.

"Haruki-kun, no!" Haruka shouted in worry as Genegarg was now following him and then tried to get Imber to move again. "Please, Imber, move please!"

Genegarg fires its energy missiles at Haruki, and he manages to avoid most as they explode around them before one of the missiles sends Haruki to the ground as he falls.

Haruki sits and soon sees Genegarg leaning at him to eat him, and Haruki braced himself as he covered himself with his arms in front of his face.

Then a giant sphere of energy hits on Genegarg, forcing the kaiju to stumble away from Haruki, then the young man looks at the sphere as it lands on the ground and reveals its true form to him.

It was a 50 meter humanoid alien giant, he had a grey and blue body with red spots one some parts of his body. He was also wearing shoulder pads and chest armor, and blue light on the center of his chest shape in the letter 'Z', he also has sparkling eyes and has a bladed edge on the top of his head.

This is Ultraman Z.

"A giant?" Haruki gasped in shock as Ultraman Z looked at him.

Z then turns his attention to Genegarg as the kaiju was roaring at him and Z soon assumes his combat stance.

Soon Z and Genegarg charges at each other as Z grabs onto the Space Shark's head and Z lands a punch on it followed with a kick on its neck and another kick on its side.

Genegarg bites at Z and the Ultraman stops it by grabbing on the Space Shark's head and knee strikes on it before the two continue to fight each other.

"It's not hard to tell who to side with it." Haruki said as he fired at the kaiju as it was biting on Z's arm which made it roar in annoyance as it let go of the Ultraman and Z soon turned to him.

"Hey giant, we need to get that monster away from that robot!" Haruki pointed at the down Imber. "My friend is inside that thing!"

Ultraman Z nodded as he understood before he grabs onto Genegarg and begins to pushed it back.

"Oh he understands Japanese. Nice!" Haruki said.

Ultraman Z soon let's go of the Space Shark as he throws a punch on it which forces the kaiju to stumble back.

Haruki then fires at Genegarg to get it's attention as it turns to him, which gives Z the moment to throw a punch at its head.

Ultraman Z looks at the kaiju before he notices that his Color Timer is now blinking red, which Haruki notices.

"Eh? What's going on?" Haruki asked as he wondered about that blinking.

Genegarg roars before it fires energy missiles at Haruki, and Haruki was about to turn around and run but a collapsed building was behind him.

"Oh no…" Haruki said as he braced himself from the attack, before Ultraman Z protected him as he blocked the missiles path by using his back as a shield. "You…"

Genegarg soon channels energy into its mouth and fires a beam of purple and red energy at Z and Haruki as it continues to fire its missiles.

When the attacks hit Ultraman Z they created a large explosion around both him and Haruki as they screamed and while being engulfed in flames before it all became dark to him.

"Haruki-kun, no!" Haruka shouted in worry.


Haruki wearing just his suit and boots was sleeping in a dark space before he heard a voice.

"Awaken, Earthling."

Haruki begins to wake before he stands up and looks around.

"What the…" Haruki said before he turned around and saw Z standing behind him. "You!"

"I am Ultraman Z. My deepest apologies, but you have died." Z told him.

"I died?!" Haruki gasps in shock before he checks himself and looks back at the Ultraman. "You're kidding!"

"I'm sorry but I'm telling the truth. And it appears I, too, am in Ultra-peril." Z told him.

"You too?! What now?! The city, and Haruka…!" Haruki said.

"We have one option. If you and I merge, we can save both the city and your friend. Will you join me? I require your aid please." Z requested and Haruki wasn't sure on what to say. "Can you understand me?"

"No. I understand, but you talk a little funny." Haruki stated.

"Wait, seriously?" Z said. "How very troubling. Earthese is Ultra-difficult."

"W-Well, forget that. So, if I join you, we can defeat that monster and protect everyone?!" Haruki asked.

"Yes, we can." Z answered.

"Then...I'll do it!" Haruki said with strong determination.

Then Z changed into light particles and took the form of a device as Haruki catches it in his hands.

It was a bladed device that was color black, with a blue edge on the top with three round slots on it, it has a card slot with a circle on the top and has a blue crystal in the middle, and has blue 'Z' by the handle along with a blue trigger. This is the Z Riser.

"Now you shall press the trigger of that Ultra Z Riser." Z instructed him.

Haruki then held the handle with his left hand and pressed the trigger which made the blue crystal light up.

Haruki then saw lines out of light forming a 'Z' together before it changed into a large square gateway.

"Enter there." Z told him.

"Osu…" Haruki said as he walked into the gateway.

He soon found himself in a different space filled with colorful lines of light flying around him.

Haruki then saw a shining card flying at him before he caught it in his hand. Haruki looks at the card as it stops shining, it has a picture of him on the bottom and has a side picture of Z's head on top of him, and has alien writing on the top and bottom edges of it, and the backside was colored black with a blue 'Z' on it.

"What is this?" Haruki asks as he looks at the Card.

"That Ultra Access Card must be set in the Z Riser." Z told him.

"Osu." Haruki said as he inserted the Access Card into the card slot of the Riser as the circle showed Z's head and the crystal lights up.

HARUKI: ACCESS GRANTED

Haruki was a little surprised that it said his name before he saw three lights flying to his belt as it formed into a case attached onto it.

It was a blue case that had Z's symbol on top of it.

"What is this? Huh?" Haruki said as he opened the Z Holder and saw three red medals inside of it as he pulled them out and looked at them in his hand. "Medals?"

The Medals have the side heads of Ultraman Zero, his father Ultraseven, and his master Ultraman Leo.

"Ultra Medals of my mentors, Zero-shisho, Seven-shisho, and Leo-shisho. In the slots you must put them." Z told him and Haruki understood what he meant as he looked at the three slots on his Riser. "It should grant us my shishos' power."

"You've got a lot of shishos." Haruki said before he inserts the Ultra Medals one at a time, starting with Zero, then Seven, and lastly Leo.

"Ah, you're Ultra-sharp! Next, scan the medals." Z told him.

"Listen, I'm kind of in a rush." Haruki said.

"Fear not. Space-time in this field is warped. A minute here is a second outside." Z assured him.

"Really? So, like this?" Haruki said as he began to pull the finned down to scan the Medals on his Card.

ZERO

SEVEN

LEO

Then the crystal unleashed a brought light and unleashed blue lines of energy as they flew and gathered together behind Haruki to become Ultraman Z as a giant as he stood up behind him.

"Good. Now call out my name!" Z told him.

"What's your name again?" Haruki asked.

"Ultraman Z!"

"Ultraman Z?" Haruki repeated.

"No, it must be said with more spirit!" Z told him.

"Spirit?" Haruki repeated.

"Yes! Ready? With Ultra-spirit!"

"I ask that you chant my name! Ultraman Z!" Z told him as he stretched out his arms to his sides.

Haruki got ready as he shouted with spirit.

"Ultraman Z!" Haruki shouted as he pointed the Z Riser up in the air...but nothing was happening and he wondered what he did wrong before Z whispers to him.

"The trigger. You finished by pressing the trigger." Haruki looked and saw the trigger. "Right there."

"Oh I see…" Haruki said before he thrust the Riser in the air and pressed the trigger and the crystal gave off a bright light.

Then the three Ultramen Zero, Seven, and Leo were seen flying as they did their battle cry.

"Ziwah!"

"Tah!"

"Hiyah!"

Then the three Ultramen fly to the bottom and combine together.

ULTRAMAN Z: ALPHA EDGE

An explosion of blue and red energy had appeared from bottom, and flying out of it was Ultraman Z in a new form as he thrust his fist forward.

"Zeh!"


Genegarg then makes its way to Imber as Haruka still tries to get him to move.

"Haruka-chan, you need to get out of there!" Manager Miura told her through Imber's communication.

"I won't! I'm not going to abandon Haruki and Imber!" Haruka said.

Then Genegarg begins to channel energy around its body to fire at Imber, and Haruka closes her eyes to brace herself for the attack, but coming to her aid was Z as he flies and attacks the kaiju.

Haruka opens her eyes as Z lands between him and the fallen Genegarg before the young Ultraman stands up to show his new form.

Z's legs waist was now colored red and his torso and arms were colored blue, and Z's shoulder pads and chest armor had changed as well and had two pieces of armor on his hips, and now has three bladed edges on the top of his head and has a green Beam Lamp on his forehead.

This is Ultraman Z: Alpha Edge.

"That giant again?" Haruka said as she was surprised by Z's new form.

"Whoa." Haruki inside of Z's pocket space was amazed as well as he could feel the incredible power flowing within him. "Amazing!"

"Let us work together, Earthling!" Z told him.

"Osu!" Haruki said in agreement.

Z assumes a new combat stance as Genegarg had got up and charged at the Ultraman.

Z stops Genegarg in its tracks as he grabs onto its blade and lands two punches on the Space Shark to push it back.

Genegarg roars as it attempts to bite at Z stops it by grabbing onto blade and jaw and pushes it back and lands two punches and a kick on the kaiju, and lands a punch and a chop on its chest.

Z jumps away from Genegarg as the two enemies walk to the side, and the Space Shark attacks at Z with its blade and Z blocks it with his forearms and pushes its head back and lands a reverse spin kick on its head and followed with another spin kick, which forced Genegarg to stumble back a few feet.

Genegarg soon channels energy around its body, and Z channels energy on the Sluggers on his head and soon brings out two energy Sluggers before they stop at Z's hand as he brought them together as an energy chain appeared between them to form the letter 'Z'.

Z then swings the connected Sluggers like nunchucks around as the Sluggers spin around.

Z soon charges at Genegarg as the kaiju fires at him, and Z uses his Sluggers to deflect the missiles and when he is close enough he attacks Genegarg with them.

"Whoa! So this is Space Martial Arts, the Inherited Fighting Technique! Ultra-strong!" Z said in amazement as he still continued to attack Genegarg before the energy Sluggers returned to the Sluggers on his head.

Z then landed two kicks on Genegarg's head and followed with a reverse spin kick that was set on fire.

Genegarg fired its propulsion organs on its back to fly and charge at Z, and the Ultraman was too late too dodge as Genegarg landed in front of him and pushed Z back as they smashed through a building together and the two were now flying in the air.

Z chops on Genegarg to break himself free and kicks the Space Shark away.

Genegarg channels energy in its mouth as he flies at Z.

As Z stops and flies in the sky, he soon channels his forearms with energy as he brought them together and swing them out with his left pointed up and his right pointed down and a large energy 'Z' appeared in front of him as it was absorbed into his hands as electricity appeared between as Z brought them together and shouted…

"Zestium Beam!" Z made a '+' with his arms and fired a blue beam at Genegarg and the Space Shark fired with his own beam.

The two attacks clashed against each other, and was on even ground before Genegarg managed to push Z's attack back before Haruki shouted.

"Chasto!"

Z's attack overpowered Genegarg's attack as it was pushed back and hits the kaiju was it was set ablaze as it was pushed to the ground by Z's beam before it exploded and in that explosion several different colored objects were sent flying out of the explosion as they scattered throughout the city.

Z lands on the ground as he lands on his foot and knee before he stands up and faces Genegarg's remains as the explosion has died down.

Haruka was in awe by Z's fight against the kaiju.

Z soon turns to the sky above and flies away while making a 'Z' trace made out of lines of energy as he flies high in the sky and soon disappears from everyone's sight.


(With Haruki)

After the battle Haruki notices that the space around is beginning to fade away.

"Huh?" Haruki said as he wondered what was going on before Z gave him some parting words.

"Please gather the Medals which scattered from that monster. They can save this universe. I beseech you!" Z told him.

"You still talk kind of funny. But wait, Medals? What do you mean?" Haruki asked before the space around began to vanish. "Huh? Hey, Z?! Z?!"

Then everything turns white around him.


Haruki begins to wake up as he now found himself lying on the ground and slowly begins to stand up.

He looks at the destroyed rubble around him before he spotted two Ultra Medals on the ground and picks them up.

Haruki looked at the Medals in his hands and saw that they had the pictures of Ultraman Ace and Taro.

"The Medals Z is looking for...are these?" Haruki said in wonder.

"Haruki-kun!" Haruka's voice calls out to him as he looks.

Haruka was walking through the rubble looking for him as she called out.

"Haruki-kun! Itai!" Haruka said as a Medal fell on her head and then to the ground. Haruka picks up the Medal and looks at it as it has the picture of Ultraman on it. "What's this?"

Haruki runs behind her and calls out to her.

"Haruka!" Haruka turned around and spotted her childhood friend standing behind her as he waved his hand.

"Haruki-kun!" Haruka said as she ran up and hugged him, but then Haruka then rubs her hands around his body. "Is it really you? You're not a ghost, right?"

"Yeah...I'm very much alive." Haruki assured her.

"But how…?" Haruka asked.

"Well, Ultraman Z…"

"Ultraman Z?" Haruka repeated.

"Oh...that giant saved me in the nick of time." Haruki told her.

"I see…" Haruka said as she smiled. "I guess I owe him another debt. But are you really okay? Does it hurt anywhere?" As she placed her hands around his body.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry." Haruki told her.

Unknown to the two childhood friends is that someone wearing the same kind of uniform as Haruki's was watching them.

Then that very man opens his hands to reveal three Ultra Medals on it. They were the Medals of Ultraman Tiga, Dyna, and Gaia. He then took his leave as he walked away.


(Later)

After Z had defeated and destroyed Genegarg a group of people wearing hazard suits and masks had brought the kaiju's remains to a building as the remains were in a plastic canister.

The building is Global - Allied Forces Monster Research Center. This building was designed to study destroyed kaiju remains for potential study and research of weaknesses.

The team that brought Genegarg's remains were seen bringing the containers.

"The space monster that appeared today…" One of them said before they almost let the canister fall to the floor.

"Oh sorry."

"Fragments 1 to 39 of Genegarg have been contained."

"Roger." He said before he accidentally tripped and fell as the canister fell with him as it opened and spilled out the fragments.

"Hey, watch it, Kaburagi!" He told him.

"Sorry, I'll clean it up." Kaburagi said as he stood on his knees before his boss left.

"Honestly, you're such a klutz." He told him as he and the others left Kaburagi behind.

"Sorry." Kaburagi said as he looked at the fragments. "Oh man, this is so gross. Is this safe?"

Kaburagi then looked inside of the canister and was about to clean his mess up. "What is this disgusting stuff?"

Then suddenly an alien parasite-like creature flies out of the canister and grabs onto Kaburagi's face.

"What's going on?!" He shouted as he tried to wrestle the parasite off of him.

Kaburagi stood up and took a few steps back as the parasite removed his mask, he soon groaned in pain as the parasite entered his body through his face and after a while Kaburagi stopped moving.

Then his body twitched a few times as he raised his head, Kaburagi was a young man in his mid-20s with short brown hair and black eyes.

Kaburagi looks at the canister where the parasite was in and walks to it. He knelt down and pulled out a Z Riser and an orange glowing crystal from the canister as he looked at them.

"Kiete...Karekare-ta." Kaburagi or rather the alien parasite controlling him had said, which translates to. "I feel good."

Kaburagi smirks as one of his eyes turns red.
