Reviews:

Magic Detective: I'm happy that you enjoyed the story so far. As for estimates? Eh. We'll see.

furyuu: Um, not really. I don't think so. We used those two because they represent the future.

MKDemiGodzilla-Warrior: Yeah, Zi-O got pretty shafted by the wrong person in charge. And probably not, the Zi-O Vs Decade Specials are very new and we did our own 'Zi-O Vs Decade' special when Sougo got Grand.

Dragon Rider 66: Glad you've enjoyed the series. But you're going to have to wait when we upload the three V-Cinemas.

Spidey Viewer: Do your own version of Zi-O Revised. I'd be more than happy to see your own interpretation on the series. As for my disdain of Ex-Aid, I'll explain in KRNexus' review

KRNexus: Okay. My problems with Decade are basically...it was too boring and repetitive. The whole series was: Tsukasa goes to Place A, meets Rider B, gets the Rider Card and fighting, and Narutaki going 'Onore Decade!' it just...URGH! And the ending? The ending was a downer. It started with the threat of war and it ends with the war.

And as for Ex-Aid? It boils down to three things. One: Power Creep. Two: Every character is psychotic to some degree. Three: The gaming theme cut deep in my own past.

Let me explain.

One: All the characters start at level 1 and 2. That's fine, I can deal with that, it makes sense. But when they struggle to control level 5 and have to face a guy who is LEVEL FIFTY? What's the fucking point? And when they get a power boost to Level 50 themselves? The bad guys get LEVEL FUCKING 99! Only when Emu gets Hyper Muteki and starts kicking ass with it and beats the bullshit of Cronus and the time manipulation makes it more bearable. The last 15 episodes to me were more enjoyable because it meant "This dumpster fire is almost over!"

Two: Every. Single. FUCKING. Character! Is insane!

Emu: Wants to be a good person, and is shat upon because he's 'immature'. And NO-ONE is offering to say, with positive reinforcement/criticism, "Emu, try and restrain yourself.". And his gaming prowess and skill came from him being Patient Zero for the Bugster Virus which made Parad? That lost points with me.

Hiiro: He's depressed because of his fiancee's death. Understandable. But why the FUCK does he have to be Severus Snape about it towards Emu like 95% of the time?

Kiriya: Lies to people to spare the feelings of others. I get it, he lost his friend and it's hard for him to talk about it. But there needs to be a healthy way to talk about it.

Taiga: FUCK. THIS. CUNT! He's second only to Kuroto in how bat-shit crazy his attitude is! I get it, he's on a warpath to avenge Hiiro's fiancee and fix his mistake and wants to make sure no-one else goes through the same shit he went through. But to openly demand "Give me your Gashat or I'll kill you!" NO! Just no!

Dan Kuroto: ...Dan Kuroto. All I need to say.

Poppy: She is too hyper and that episode where she forces a guy onto roller coaster after roller coaster almost made me throw up with how uncomfortable it made me feel.

Parad: Reminded me of my brother kicking my ass at games. Even though Parad got better as the series went on, I just have a disdain towards this guy.

Dan Masaune: Father of Kuroto. All I need to say.

Three: As stated in my gripe against Parad, I like playing single-player games, but when I play games with others when it's not co-op, it's just bitter memories and I just hate myself because I lose all the fucking time.

Here are some reviews answered by our own GreyKing46

TrueNobleNoodles: I am glad you enjoyed it! Look forward to more, we are doing our best!

Dragon Rider 66: Nice guesses. All wrong but nice guesses.

MKDemiGodzilla-Warrior: We already went over that in some of Woz's focus chapters.

furyuu: That's what I was thinking would happen in cannon. Heck, I guess they would have become Another Ghost and Kiva. You know, using and expanding on existing characters instead of random one-offs. I thought they would be Takeru and Wataru's grandkids or something. But hey, you know, we fans use logic.

Magic Detective: Kamen Rider Zero One Revised will start 31st of March. And it will be a weekly uploads

It was a beautiful day in Tokyo, the tall skyscrapers reaching to the clouds, people walking around on smooth pavement paths and green grass; the populous enjoying themselves as they were caught in the sun. This was the second year of the Reiwa Era and among some of the people had strange white headphones with blue circles over their ears.

We travel through the city, a near-futuristic sight to a large building: the Kougami Foundation. One of Japan's wealthiest and influential companies in the country. And inside this building we see people working hard at their desks and in laboratories on new gadgets and such.

Outside of the Kougami Foundation, a biker pulled up into the company's parking garage. His bike was styled black with red markings and silver exhausts. Stepping off the bike was a young man twenty years old, removing his helmet to reveal his chiselled looks, black hair and brown eyes, wearing a black biker's jacket with red stitching, red padded black biker's gloves, dark red trousers and black boots. This was Geiz Myokoin.

He had to admit, it was still weird to think about that last name.

A few months ago, a great event occurred, an event that changed the course of history. But only a select few knew about it and knew what transpired because of that event.

Geiz had spent so long without a last name...but now he had one again. He had a family name. He had a family again. He tucked his helmet under his arms and walked off to the doors and inside the main building.

"Wonder what my job is today." he muttered to himself.

As he walked through the corridors, he waved to some of his co-workers.

"Morning, Myokoin." Some of the polite members responded.

"Morning."

As Geiz continued to walk, he saw a woman coming down the same corridor. "Good morning, Geiz." The woman smiled.

"Morning, Lin." He responded politely, seeing her look at him with some bedroom eyes. Not that Geiz realised her obvious desires.

"Mr Kougami wishes to speak with you." Lin continued

"Really? I must've missed the memo." He admitted. "Thanks." And headed that way.

"Ah~, what a hottie." she smiled.

Yes, Geiz was popular among some of the ladies in the offices. Something that carried over when he was in high-school. He soon arrived at a large set of double doors with the name 'Kougami' on the front

Knock, knock.

"Come in." A voice called through.

Geiz took a breath and entered, readying himself.

As he walked in, he caught the scent of baking, sugar and sweets. The smell of a bakery within the building complex. Inside the room, was the boss of the Foundation. Kousei Kougami. Greying black hair, wearing a clean grey suit with a white button shirt and red tie; but over his suit was an apron with the print of the Kougami Foundation logo and in his hands was a bowl and whisk where he was making a cake. "AH! Geiz my boy!"

Geiz took a deep breath and gulped. "Mr Kougami. You wanted to see me?"

"Yes, I did." He responded. "Would you like some cake?"

"Yes." Geiz almost immediately responded the temptation of the cake was too strong.

"Ah, you are a boy after my own heart, Geiz!" the man laughed.

"Sir, what did you call me in for?" Geiz asked as he sat down, eyeing a particular strawberry frosting cake.

"Ah, yes. I've been seeing various reports on your work. You've been doing very well as a courier and tester of our devices in the field." Mr Kougami responded as he tapped the bowl with the whisk.

"I'll admit, it's not as exciting as 'fighting monsters'." Geiz chuckled gently.

"No. But it's vital work." He answered. "And you are still doing well at that whenever something happens."

"Of course. I can't slack off." Geiz admitted, his gaze caught between the cake and his boss.

"So tell me. How are your friends?" Mr Kougami asked. "Sougo seems to be busy as of late."

"Yeah. He's always been good with money. So lots of saving, and living minimally." Geiz nodded "He and the girls never need to work, but they do volunteer all over the place. And the wedding is next place, I'm the best man."

"Ah, yes, I did hear about that!" Kougami nodded "Unfortunately I will be unable to make it."

"Oh, that's...I'm sorry to hear that." Geiz frowned, realising the man who had helped them become well off wouldn't be with them on their wedding day.

"It's tough being the boss, you understand. But I'll be able to give gifts." He answered, pouring the batter in a tin.

Geiz nodded, casually grabbing a slice of cake.

"Is this fresh?" He asked.

"Of course." Mr Kougami responded. "That one I'm proud of."

"Really? Why-?" Geiz asked before he tasted it. "...YUMMY!"


*Elsewhere*

We arrive...At a sold-out stadium.

Here, we see the large crowd holding glow-sticks and cheering silently for the idol who was on stage.

"Thank you, everyone!" The singer cheered, waving

The Idol was Rise Amari, a long brown-haired girl who turned twenty, hazel eyes, wearing a dress that emphasized her cuteness, C-Cup breasts, a pair of stockings, slightly heeled shoes and wearing a frilled arm-band.

She was waving to everyone, her ear-mounted microphone near her lips.

"Rise-Rise will see you soon~!" Rise playfully cheered, making a heart with her fingers, much to the cheers of the crowd.

She waved, skipping off the stage.

As Rise left the stage, she turned off her microphone and took off the headset, going to her dressing room. "Whoo." She exhaled as she sat down at her make-up table.

A gentle clapping followed her. An older gentleman with a black suit and tie with a white shirt. "Rise, that was wonderful. Good job."

"Thank you, Mr Izawa." Rise relaxed in her chair as she let her cheeks loose. "Oh! Smiling like that for so long hurts!"

"I'll be honest, I completely understand." Mr Izawa responded. "It's tough being an idol."

"Thanks." she nodded, checking her phone.

She checked the time and saw that she had one message from Geiz.

Going to work. See you soon.

She smiled and closed her phone, before letting out a tired sigh.

"Is everything alright? Do you need a drink?" Mr Izawa asked Rise.

"No, I'm fine. It just looks like I won't be seeing my boyfriend again tonight."

"Ah, I understand. Well, perhaps you can go home and relax today. I'll go call a car." Mr Izawa answered.

"Maybe." she nodded.


*elsewhere*

"Ha!" a red armour figure called, punching his foe.

The red armoured figure was wearing a full metallic red bodysuit, dark red shinguards, black watch-crown kneecaps, red shoes with black toe-caps, silver ankle-guards, a black futuristic watchstrap going from his heck to his waist; a silver-edged red chest-guard with yellow markings, round-edged shoulder guards, black gloves with yellow plating on the thumbs and fingers. A white and black belt with a digital clock-face with a red watch-like item with a copy of the mask-helmet of the figure.

And finally, the figure's helmet. Mainly black with a segmented white face with a black circle with yellow edges on the forehead and yellow Hiragana lettering that read 'Rider' over the eyes.

This was Kamen Rider Geiz.

And right now he was facing a monster that was causing trouble around the city.

FINISH TIME!

"Ha!" the Rider called as he hit the button on the watch in his belt. He then jumped into the air, rotating his belt 360.

TIME BURST!

The Rider rocketed down and struck the monster square in the chest, causing it to explode, whilst skidding onto the floor.

"Ha." he breathed softly. He looked around and saw the people had scattered away from the fight, so he could transform out of his Rider Armour without worry. As he did so, it revealed Geiz inside. "These monsters are getting bolder."

"Yeah." Another Rider nodded, patting Geiz's shoulder.

This Rider was wearing a black bodysuit with silver shoulder-guards, silver watch-crown kneecaps, silvery-blue toed boots and silver ankle-bracers, pink markings on his waist, pink plated black gloves, a silver watchstrap going down from his neck to his waist, a similar belt to Geiz with a white RideWatch, a silver-framed mask with a white watch-face with silver antennae pointing at 10 and 2; with pink Katakana writing on his visor which read 'Rider'.

This rider... Was Kamen Rider Zi-O.

"Are you going to be okay, Sougo?" Geiz asked as he turned around, seeing his friend.

"Yeah? Why wouldn't I be?" he asked confused.

Sougo was a young, twenty-year-old man with short brown hair, brown eyes, wearing a pink jacket over a black and white striped shirt, a black belt and dark blue trousers.

"Just...the wedding." Geiz admitted. "I know you and Alpina love each other, more than that you like each other. But isn't it all...scary at all?"

...

"I am scared out of my mind!" Sougo laughed.

"Yeah, I guess this is on a different level than fighting monsters at this point." Geiz answered.

"Exactly. I've got to look over venues, flowers, the priest, cakes...though I'm Mr Kougami could help out with that." Sougo admitted. "... You got it yet?"

"I...Well...Err." Geiz muttered nervously.

"Geiz, come on, it's one of the most important things." Sougo responded "Heck, THE most important thing!"

"I know, I know. It's just. I can't find the right one." Geiz explained, panicking. "I want it to be perfect!"

"Geiz. Trust me on this. The engagement ring doesn't have to be 'perfect'. What makes it perfect is what you choose for her." Sougo explained as he put a hand on Geiz's shoulder comfortingly.

"So...I shouldn't get an expensive engagement ring?" Geiz asked.

"No. If it's a diamond one, you're set back thousands." Sougo answered.

"Really? Sheesh." Geiz rubbed the back of his neck. "Okay...then, a different gem then. Or something else."

"Something personal." Sougo smiled "I got Alpina a ring with amethyst and topaz, a pink and yellow gem, set in a moon-like thing. It's some fancy design, I don't know, but it fit 'us' perfectly. Subtly."

"Huh." Geiz nodded in understanding as he heard this sage advice. "Okay, I think I get it."

"Good." Sougo laughed.

"...How's Woz taking it all? Y'know, living here in this timeline." Geiz asked as they walked.

"He's loving it." Sougo laughed. "His apartment near our home is just the craziest. Filled with books."

"Why does he need books? He has all the knowledge in the world in his head." Geiz asked.

"Yeah, true. But its own thing." Sougo answered making Geiz shrug.

"How're things with Rise?" Sougo asked as they walked to a takoyaki cart.

"I... not the best." Geiz blinked.

"Two please." Sougo asked, getting his wallet out. "Why? I thought you two were solid."

"It's just...Our jobs keep us separate. And I don't know what to say to her." Geiz answered. "And she's... She's... Her manager is weird."

"Here you are." The stand-owner spoke up, passing them two bowls of takoyaki.

"Thanks." Sougo answered, paying for it. "How do you mean? I thought she loved her job."

"She does but... She and the guy are almost always together. And he acts so... Creepy around her." Geiz tried to explain

Sougo hummed and nodded in understanding. "I get that. I really do."

"Yeah. And I'm worried about if I'm... Good enough for her."

"Geiz, you are good enough for her. You're a good man, a good person, a good provider. I mean, that's three checks in the 'yes box' right there." Sougo answered.

"Thanks, man."

"Anytime. Eat your Takoyaki before I pinch any." Sougo responded, showing his own empty bowl.

"Hey!" Geiz laughed


*with Rise*

Rise was having a drink after getting changed out of her idol get-up, she was going to the limo to head back home. Or at least her new apartment. She was with her manager, the two in the limo.

"Do you have everything? Dress, casual clothes, water?" Mr Izawa asked attentively.

"Now, remember that you have a meet-and-greet tomorrow, followed by autographs and that new water-bottle commercial." Mr Izawa informed quickly.

"I know, I know... It isn't the beach commercial, is it?" Rise asked, groaning as her manager nodded "Okay~! But can you talk to them about changing that bikini? It's too skimpy"

"I'll see what I can do. But the research says 'skin sells'; not that I agree with it." Mr Izawa responded.

"I'm glad you don't." Rise nodded and stroked her arms, feeling… 'exposed' when talking about that bikini. Although maybe she should look into getting one like it. Specifically for private purposes and not for the entire country to see. After all, she had a very special boy she was sure would love to see her in said outfit.

"Miss, we've arrived back to your apartment." The driver spoke as they parked up.

"Thanks!" she smiled

"Look after yourself, Miss." The driver added as Rise waved back with a smile and entered her apartment's stairwell.

It was a bit of a trek, but it was worth it for the view and the location.

"What a day." She sighed gently as she slumped onto her couch and relaxed in the soft pillows and the tinted windows.

She pulled out her phone and decided to dial her best friend's number.

Ring, ring. Ring, ring.

"Hello?" A female voice answered, making Rise smile.

"Hey, Alpina."

"Oh, Rise. How was work?" Alpina's voice responded, listening to her friend.

"Exhausting. It was an amazing concert but...Some days you want to relax." Rise explained.

"You're telling me."

"How're things going for the wedding ideas?" Rise asked

"It's a trial. Everything's expensive and...There's like fifty thousand yen for cakes and wedding table coverings each. It's like an arm and a leg for just the dresses alone." Alpina explained. "Luckily we are good for and with money but still."

"And Aura's going to be your 'shared wife' and bride's maid; right? After this first one is done." Rise asked.

"That's the plan. Sougo's fretting about a lot of things. It's honestly nice to see him being concerned worrying about normal stuff and not being a Rider." Alpina responded.

"I get that." Rise answered, sighing heavily as her mind went to Geiz.

"Do you want to talk about why you really called me?" Alpina asked.

"W-What do you mean?" she squeaked.

"What's wrong? I can tell from your voice." Alpina answered.

"Okay. I...I'm worried that Geiz is seeing someone at his work." Rise answered.

"...I'm sorry. What?" Alpina asked.

"I think he's seeing someone. I mean, he's popular at his work; it's like back at school with his 'fan-club'." Rise frowned.

"...Are you serious? Geiz isn't like that." Alpina answered.

"I know, but-" Rise frowned

"No 'buts', Rise. Remember, all those girls in the club came after him. He never went to them." Alpina answered. "He chose you."

Rise heard this and nodded to herself. "Thank you, Alpina. I needed to hear this."

"Of course, anything for a friend." She responded. "I'll see you Saturday for the bachelorette party?"

"Of course, I'll bring male-strippers and wine." Rise joked, making Alpina laugh.

"Love you, girl."


*with Geiz*

"Hoo. Okay. Something simple, something simple." He told himself as he had finished work for the day and was headed home. Listening to Sougo had really helped clear his head. He was heading towards her home. "I hope she's awake." He wondered as he headed inside with his own key.

"I'm home." He called out into the apartment.

"Ah, welcome back." Rise responded as she got up from the couch. "You're home early."

"It wasn't as difficult as I thought it'd be today." He answered as he casually sat down next to her. "What about you? How were your adoring fans?"

Rise chuckled and patted his chest playfully. "They were great. But I've got my number one fan right here."

"Really? Where is he?" he blinked.

Rise chuckled and playfully slapped him. "You dope. It's you."

"Is it?" He teased and tickled her.

As Rise giggled from the tickling, she fell onto the couch, trying to get in close to Geiz, while her fingers brushed against his abs from years of fighting...one of the few things he had brought back from the previous timeline. She couldn't help but smile at the feeling of those.

"Are you checking my abs again?" He asked with a playful smirk.

"Can you blame me?" She responded.

The two embraced together, though it was short-lived as they heard an explosion outside the apartment. Down on the ground but dangerously close.

Suddenly the room began to spark as winds began to pick up around them.

"Geiz!" She screamed in fear.

"I've got you!" He protected her and had his belt attached. "Don't worry Rise, it'll be all okay! I promise!"

Emerging in their apartment, a figure began to appear before them. It reached out and grabbed them both, pulling them inside.

And suddenly the world changed in the flash of light.

The two landed outside in a forest. Or at least where they thought was a forest. There were trees and grass...but the sound of cars? They must've been in a park. "Oh. My eyes." Rise frowned.

"I'll be seeing spots for an hour. Who did that?" Geiz glared, rubbing his eyes.

"Sorry about that. But it was the only way to get you to safety." A new young man's voice apologised. "I can't do much about the flashing lights though."

"Huh?" they blinked and looked at the source of the voice.

Standing before them, wearing a red jacket, blue jeans and a black shirt, red-blonde hair, black eyes and wearing a digital watch on his wrist. He looked to be a young man, maybe in his twenties...and he looked a little like Geiz.

"G-Geiz? What's going on? Who's this?" Rise asked in confusion, rubbing her eyes as her vision became less blurred.

"I'm sorry; this is a lot to tell you, but. It's a little complicated." The young man apologised only for Geiz to grab the new person by their shirt.

"You better hurry, and you're lucky I can hold myself back after you kidnapped us." he hissed.

"I'm. I'm your son! You're in the future!" The young man answered quickly, struggling out of his Geiz's hands and back to the floor.

"...You're what?" Geiz double took.

"What?!" Rise gasped.

Geiz released the young man from his grasp and looked at him. "I'm your son." The young man answered. "A few years from your present, you're going to have me. My name is Hisashi Myokoin." He introduced himself.

"Hisashi?"

"It means 'Always with you'." Hisashi answered, opening his wallet and showed a picture of him as a young boy; Geiz, who looked to be in his forties and sporting a 'dad-beard' and Rise, who was just as beautiful as she looked now, albeit a bit more mature.

Rise covered her mouth in shock at the image.

"Oh my god! I'm an old woman! And Geiz, that beard!" She gasped.

"I know. You look great!" Geiz answered.

"You look so lame!"

...

"Wait... What?" they blinked and looked at each other.

"What do you mean 'I look lame'?" Geiz asked

"Look at the beard. It's a total 'dad-beard'." Rise answered in embarrassment, looking away.

"This is embarrassing." Hisashi groaned as he saw his parents beginning to argue.

ZOOM!

"Huh?" Geiz and Rise blinked, looking up.

...

Yeah, they saw flying cars zooming above them.

"Are those flying cars?!" Rise gasped.

"You bet your boots, those are flying cars." Hisashi smiled as he saw their shocked faces.

"There are freaking flying cars?!" Geiz double-took.

"Future." their son reminded with a laugh.

"Sorry, just...this is a little 'too much'." Rise explained.

"I get it, but trust me it's a slow transition." Hisashi responded. "And I didn't need to grab you to mum, I just meant to get dad."

"Me? Why me?" Geiz asked. "What's going on?"

"There's an enemy here, one I can't defeat on my own." Hisashi answered. As he said that he held his hand up revealing... A RideWatch.

"Wait. That's a RideWatch. Does that mean-?" Geiz asked, thinking the damage from before in the Time-stream was fixed.

He pulled his own RideWatch out, comparing the two.

In Geiz's hand was a black-based red face-plate RideWatch with a white mask with yellow Hiragana eyes.

In Hisashi's hand was a crimson red-based RideWatch with a silver face-plate and yellow Hiragana eyes. An almost identical copy of his father's RideWatch.

"Yeah. Spooky, isn't it?" He asked with a proud smile.

The two watches shared the same symbol on top but had their own dates. Geiz's had 2068 written in blue, while Hisashi's had 2038.

"This clinches it." Geiz admitted. "How did you get the Quartz from the time-stream or did someone give it to you?"

"You did and...you did." Hisashi answered. "The Quartz Realm had recovered by now and... yeah."

"Thank goodness." Geiz sighed in relief before he was slapped by Rise. "What was that for?"

"Getting him into this whole Rider thing!" Rise answered.

"What's that supposed to mean?" he blinked.

"Shouldn't he have a choice? Becoming a Rider I mean. Did you put him up to this?" Rise asked

"I don't know!" Geiz commented.

'Oh no...I didn't want this!' Hisashi thought to himself. "C-Can we talk about this? Please?" He asked nervously, worried about making a paradox.

BOOM!

"What the hell is that?!" Rise panicked

"He's here! Mum, you've got to hide!" Hisashi responded while attaching a ZikuDriver

ZIKUDRIVER!

"You're not going to fight this alone!" Geiz answered, attaching his own Driver; as tired as he was right now.

"Dad, get Mum out of here!" Hisashi snapped lightly as he held out his watch and hit the button atop it.

NEO-GEIZ!

"What?" Geiz blinked.

"You told me that 'your Rider Name is a legacy', or something. That's why." Hisashi answered, slotting his RideWatch into his belt "You are my Hero, and I wanted to live up to your legacy!"

Geiz and Rise watched, seeing the 'Rider Clock' form behind him.

Surrounding behind Hisashi was a red-edged and grey-based digital clock with circuitry and four diamond-shaped quartzes around him. "HENSHIN!" He roared as he reached down and gripped the belt.

RIDER TIME!

Hisashi had spun his tilted Driver with his hands, the Rider Clock spun around and landed to its proper sides. Holographic watch-straps summoned and surrounded around Hisashi's body and slammed onto him, transforming him with his armour.

KAMEN RI~DER!

The music a deep techno tune, going with the same beat as Geiz's watch but with a faster pace.

NEO~! GEIZ_!

Flying through the air was a series of yellow hiragana, flying around Hisashi like a tornado, as his armour was revealed.

His body-suit was mainly red, his boots and shin guards were silver with black edges, his gloves and shoulder-guards were a dark red with black edges with a silver watch-strap going from his chest to his waist. And finally his mask. Pure red with a black frame and silver face with the yellow hiragana slamming into the empty visor which read 'Rider'!

"Wow..." Geiz blinked. However, he was interrupted as a monster landed before them. It was a horrific creature, made of circuitry and flesh. A creature Geiz had experience fighting before "Is that... An Another Rider?!" Geiz gasped.

The figure rose to its It was a red-skinned being, its flesh appearing to be made of metal. It had a sleek look to it, like the most modern of tech, with blades emerging from it. The creature's flesh had a shiny metallic red look to it, its hands and feet made of a mat black. Its entire body looked like a sci-fi reimagining of a knight's armour, as sleek metal interlocked and segmented to cover every inch of the being. Its fingers had claws, a series of spikes going up its arms. Its shoulders had large bladed spikes on the end and the monsters shoulders where large black boulders with dozens of small spikes on them like the ends of maces. Across its chest was a series of black lines similar to watch straps which had yellow ones and zeroes flicking across the lines like data. At the beasts waist was a silver rectangle showing a digital display saying '2068'. The creatures head was humanoid with a visor over its eyes, the face white and the visor yellow with the word 'rider' scratched across it in deep and badly 'handwritten' hiragana. It had a jaw of spikes and teeth. And the final aspect everyone notices was the word 'Geiz' that appeared every now and again in the glowing 'data' over his chest band.

"No. ANeo Rider." his son shook his eyes "ANeo Rider Geiz."

"sO. hErE yOu ArE." ANeo Geiz spoke darkly as he saw them "aNd YoU hAvE fRiEnDs." It continued, glaring at them.

"More than that." Hisashi answered, "Dad, get out of here!"

JIKAN ZAX!

In the young rider's hand was a black-gripped red-bladed axe with the Hiragana lettering of 'Ono' along the middle "I'm not going to let you hurt my family again." Hisashi hissed before he charged into battle.

"Hisashi." Geiz whispered in shock, seeing him run into the fight and began to fight with the ANeo Geiz.

With each slash, ANeo Geiz parried and slashed back, aiming to end the annoyance that was his basis.

This was strange, Another Riders were supposed to suppress the powers of Kamen Riders. So how did Hisashi continue to use his own powers?

What WAS this 'ANeo' Rider?

"Geiz, where should we go?" Rise panicked. "I don't know if this is the right path."

"We just need to find a safe place." he assured.

"Then. Then in town?" She asked

"Probably, yes!" Geiz nodded as he helped hide her only to come to a stop, seeing robotic monsters in their way.

"What the hell are these things?!" He snapped, Rise covering behind him.

The robots were humanoid, black cybernetic body-suit, mechanical exoskeleton on the boots, shins, thighs, arms, waist and hands, plate-mail looking chest guards, metal shoulder-guards and overlapped faceplate like a shell and strange red-ring ear-pieces like headphones.

"G-Geiz. Are those-?" Rise asked in worry.

"Humans must be exterminated." The monsters spoke in unison.

Suddenly three small, floating race car tracks appeared in the air. They seemed to be forming out of nowhere, spiralling around the robots, as small cars raced around on said tracks.

"The heck are these?" Rise asked in shock.

"I...Shinnosuke?" Geiz wondered before the cars attacked the robots, before retreating away back to their owner.

"Unless you want to get caught, I suggest you move!" A voice called out to the two.

Suddenly a black and blue Rider rushed past them, slashing with a small combat knife.

The Rider was predominantly black, light and dark-blue markings. His shin-guards and chest-guard were mainly black with thin dark-blue lines; black bracers and gloves, black bodysuit with thicker light-blue lines over his body; his helmet was mainly black with blue visor eyes and dark-blue head-piece and a yellow marked tire around his left shoulder to his right hip. Around his waist was a silver belt with a black circular screen; and a silver wrist mount.

"Drive Next. You will be exterminated!" The robots struggled as they got up.

"I don't think so." the Rider said, catching one of the racing cars.

Geiz saw this and grabbed his Driver, getting ready if this whole thing was going to turn sour.

Drive Next activated the toggle on his belt before he swapped the cars, showing a black and white 'toy car' in his hand. "Gear Shift! Henshin!" He proclaimed and toggled the car in his wrist mount.

DRIVE! TYPE! NEW WILD!

A piece of deep urban hip-hop music played as Drive Next began to transform. His whole form looked different but kept a black art-look.

Geiz and Rise covered their faces, grunting as energy blinded them for a moment.

Forming over 'Drive Next' was black and white armour with dark blue lines and the yellow marked tire shot off his torso and flew around the area, hitting the robots before attaching itself to his right shoulder. His eyes changed from blue to red and the crest on his head changed to red as well.

"Alright!" Drive Next proclaimed and began to run at higher speeds, beating the robots down like a blur.

He was slower than before, but he struck with punches that clearly held three times the power.

"Come, we need to get you out of here." a new voice, as a man approached them followed by a blue demon looking being.

"Who are you?" Rise asked.

"I'm Kotaro. This is 'Teddy'." The man responded he had short brown hair with bangs over his left eye, wearing a black jacket with silver zips, a black shirt and blue trousers.

The Blue-Demon nodded quietly, it was a blue-skinned demon with black horns, white tusks, a silver belt and horns on his shoulders and arms, black markings over his body in the shape of an 'M' and 'W'. "Hello." the demon, Teddie, bowed. He sounded polite and kind, almost like a butler.

"I. Okay!" Geiz double-took in shock, before seeing this demon, reminding him of Momotaros. He passed Rise to the man, pushing his girlfriend's back lightly to make her move "Get her to safety, I need to help my son!"

"Of course, this way Miss." Teddie understood and nodded.

"W-wait, Geiz!" Rise called out.

"I'll be fine!" He answered, bringing out his RideWatch, turning the faceplate and pressed the top button.

GEIZ~!

He slotted the RideWatch into his Driver and pressed the top button making the belt tilt. Geiz threw his arms out and grabbed the opposite ends of his belt after making a circle. "HENSHIN!" He proclaimed and span his driver in a full circle.

Techno music began to play as his red armour appeared around him, attaching itself to Geiz and shot out the yellow hiragana lettering to attack the robots before slamming into his empty visor.

KAMEN RI~DER! GEIZ!

SHINK!

Geiz roared and raced forwards, slashing at the robots that Drive Next was attacking, leaving nothing in his wake.


*With Hisashi*

"RAH!" the younger Rider called, slashing.

Hisashi's Zikan Zax slashed and connected on the body of ANeo Geiz, some small sparks coming off its body, but it seemed undeterred. It seemed to be laughing at the attempts on its body.

Hisashi's eyes widened underneath his helmet, seeing how much this was being ineffective. But he couldn't let up, he couldn't back down. He would stop this monster.

He spun his axe, kicking his foe in the chest.

"hNn!" ANeo Geiz grunted as his feet dug into the ground and almost stumbled back. "nOt A bAd HiT."

UMI!

"Thanks."

"sTiLl HaVe MuCh To LeArN!" ANeo Geiz responded, summoning a warped red and black bow in his hands, shooting a blast of explosive energy at him.

The two opened fire, rushing off and around each other.

'He has his own Zax? I thought they couldn't use weapons!' Hisashi thought, dodging the blasts as best as he could.

OH NO!

"HA!" he roared and rushed forwards, slashing as he got in close.

CLASH!

Sparks began to fly as both Zikan Zaxs connected, both Riders struggled as Hisashi could feel his energy slowly drain away.

"HA!" he roared and kicked his foe away.

"yOu'Re A wEaK wArRiOr. YoU nEeD a LoT mOrE pRaCtIcE!" ANeo Geiz commented, before his Zikan Zax glowed with dark purple energy, slashing at Hisashi but the young Rider managed to block it.

TIME CHARGE!

"Or so you think." He grunted.

5... 4...

SPARK!

"ChIlD..." ANeoGeiz hissed.

3... 2...

"Yep!" Kamen Rider Neo Geiz smirked.

1... ZERO TIME!

The Jikan Zax almost seemingly exploded in light, Neo Geiz now overwhelming his foe as he performed a powerful slash.

ZAKKURI WARI!

There was a massive shockwave of red and gold energy that shot out from the axe as he slashed, making ANeo Geiz howl in pain.

ANeo Geiz was flung back and rolled on the ground in pain, his whole body sparkling as he struggled to get back up. "f-FiNe. YoU'rE nOt BaD."

"What can I say?" he smirked, "It's in the family."

FINISH TIME!

Neo Geiz had hit the button on his RideWatch, widening his stance. Neo Geiz hit the button atop his belt, unlocking it, as he threw his weapon away. Power surrounded his form as he reached down and gripped his belt.

FINISH TIME!

He leapt into the air and rocketed down.

NEO! TIME BURST!

There were flashes of red and silver all around him, before a bunch of silver and red hiragana shot out. It was 'kick' written out in hiragana, dozens of said hiragana forming a line between Neo Geiz and his foe.

ANeo Geiz grunted and struggled to be released from the bonds before Hisashi rocketed down and his foot connected to the Another Rider's chest.

"HA!" he roared, his foot hitting his foe.

Sparks of both red and yellow energy shot out as both stood there, Hisashi struggled to keep ANeo Geiz in place while forcing the attack to go through; while ANeo Geiz was holding back as best as he could.

The two threw each other back, panting.

The two glared at each other, seeing that the others were exhausted. This should've been the end of it; ANeo Geiz should've been destroyed!

"Darn it." Hisashi hissed.

"Stay out of my way, next time." ANeo Geiz frowned.

"No. No you-!" Hisashi reached out, only for his armour to spark away...and ANeo Geiz to leave in a swirl of flames.

His RideWatch fell to the floor, his exhaustion filling him. He almost fell to the floor, his hand barely holding him up as he almost slipped into unconsciousness.

'D-Damn it.' He thought before he fell to the floor


*With Rise*

Rise was being dragged away by this random guy, as panic filled her heart.

"Where? Where are we going?" Rise asked

"We're going to a safe location, Miss. As per Mr Hisashi's instructions." Teddie answered

"We need to get to the 9 5 Do." The man added.

"The-The 9 5 Do? Sougo's home?" Rise asked in shock. "It's still there?"

"Of course it is. You know Mr Tokiwa?" Kotaro asked in shock.

"I should think...so...what the hell happened?" Rise responded and then gasped in shock at the new redesign of the whole home/watch-shop.

It was some sort of... Of...She didn't know how to describe it!

It looked to be a three-story house, a postbox with the name 'Tokiwa' on the front, the 9 5 Do resting underneath; there were square windows with white frames, tinted glass and a strange silver framed door around the side.

"This way, hurry!" Kotaro ordered.

'Sougo, you've done well for yourself.' Rise thought to herself and was pulled away to the side-door and into the house and realised it was empty. "Wait. Where is everyone?"

"Mr Tokiwa and his family left for a holiday; they gave us the keys to look after the place." Kotaro answered honestly. "... Almost like they knew what was going to happen. I guess that's good."

Rise nodded as she had calmed down and sat down in the living room and felt her heart almost beat out of her chest.

"God, I didn't think this day would get any weirder." Rise admitted.

"How do you mean?" Teddie asked.

"This morning I was coming back from a concert, now I'm in the future with my boyfriend who's fighting monsters." Rise added. "I thought we'd gone past this!"

"I suppose it is difficult for spouses to accept this sort of thing all at once." Kotaro commented

"So-Spouses?!"

"Is that the wrong word?" Kotaro asked. "I sometimes say the wrong thing."

"I... Geiz and I are just dating right now." she mumbled.

"Ah. I apologise." Kotaro apologised as he heard that. "Hisashi said he was bringing his family to safety from the past. I guess he never specified."

"There is a long history he could have pulled you from." Teddie nodded.

"Really? Hisashi could've pulled us from anywhere?" She asked

"Exactly. But he pulled you out from your youth. It must've been important." Kotaro answered.

"Time travel is confusing." Rise groaned.

"We know." Both Teddie and Kotaro agreed.

"I hope they're okay." She hoped.


*with Geiz*

Geiz was standing his ground. He wasn't going to let these robotics things keep him down!

He jumped up and span, giving a hard slash with his blade.

"HRAH!" He roared and exploded the last of the robots, making him pant in exhaustion and almost down to one knee. "Damn..." he panted "There are a lot of those guys." He removed his Driver and transformed back, panting heavily as he couldn't hold himself up properly. "Rise should be safe...I hope that Hisashi is okay." He whispered, falling to the ground in exhaustion. "Urgh...I should ease up on the boss' cakes."

"You okay?" Eiji Tomari asked as he detransformed.

"Honestly? I'm exhausted. I was fighting monsters in my time before coming here. I haven't been pushing myself as normal since 'The Fix'." Geiz admitted.

"Don't start talking like a dad just yet, Mr Myokoin." Eiji answered. "You might start making dad-jokes."

"So weird to think of." he mumbled.

Eiji nodded and reached down to help him up. "Come on, we need to get out of here."

"Urgh...This whole day." Geiz groaned as he grabbed Eiji's hand to bring himself up.

"You'll be alright." Eiji responded, pulling Geiz up to his feet. "We can get some rest."


*Time Skip*

It had been a few hours later. Geiz and Rise were safe and rested up. Though they still were worried about ANeo Geiz coming after them.

"What even WAS that thing?" Geiz asked.

"ANeo Geiz. My dad told me about those from when you and Mr Tokiwa faced them some years ago. But as Rider Powers evolved, so did the monsters." Eiji admitted

"ANeo Rider's can be seen as... The evolution of Another Rider's." Hisashi nodded "Instead of sealing their opposite numbers powers, they just absorb it through combat. And ANeo Geiz... Is all my fault."

"Hey, don't blame yourself, dude. It's mine too." Kotaro commented, "I'm the one who used the DenLiner to get him here."

"Him? Who's him?" Rise asked

...

"Our ancestor" Hisashi grumbled, "We had to call him since Ayami needed assistance from our families lineages to stop the Neo Ganmizers."

"Ayami? As in New Ghost?" Geiz asked, the group nodding "... Wait, your ancestor? As in mine too?"

"Yes." he nodded "... Have you heard of a man called Nobunaga?"

Geiz was stunned as he heard that name. 'Nobunaga', that name was familiar...it was something he and Sougo studied for on a test. "Nobunaga… 'Oda Nobunaga'?"

Hisashi nodded in response. "The King of the Sixth Heaven. The Demon King of Japan."

Both Rise and Geiz were stunned as they heard that. Geiz was related to the man who caused so much devastation and pain in the late 1500's. Forever calling him 'The Demon King of Hell'. "I. I'm related...?"

"Yes. We both are. The legacy of Oda Nobunaga." Hisashi answered. "So I brought him up here."

"Wh-why? Why bring that person here? In the future? Doing that could-!" Geiz panicked, thinking about all the rules of time travel and their potential deaths!

"Because we Ayami needed our families bloodlines to break a seal!" Hisashi repeated, "And it all went well... Until Nobunaga saw an opportunity."

"He saw a way to unify Japan with this new power. Right?" Rise asked, making Geiz look at her in shock that she knew that. "...I watched history dramas."

"Yes, exactly." Hisashi nodded "He found out about the OhTori."

Geiz's eyes widened. "The OhTori. Sougo's True Form."

"Exactly. If he gets the OhTori, it's all over." Hisashi responded. "He gained the power of ANeo Geiz to do so."

"Luckily no one has seen the bird since the final battle with Another Grand Zi-O." Eiji added

"But that is why he is attacking." Krim Steinsbelt said from around Eiji's waist "He is targeting areas where Zi-O's powers 'exploded'. Hoping the power of two Geiz's clashing in those areas would draw the bird out."

"That sounds crazy. It can't work; can it?" Rise asked

Geiz rubbed the back of his head and shook it. "No. There are crazier means. And this one seems plausible."

"So... We needed help." Hisashi flinched

"Meaning you needed me." Geiz responded

"I know it was risky and dangerous. I'm sorry." Hisashi apologised.

"It's fine." Geiz smiled.

"I know you were trying to help. It's something I would've done too."

"Dad." Hisashi looked up with a smile, feeling relieved that he wasn't in too much trouble.

"Where would he go next?" Rise asked. "If he's going where Sougo got his powers, where would he go?"

"Well... There aren't that many places left. We just have to beat him." Hisashi admitted.

"Then it might be in town." Geiz whispered. "Or maybe the wastes. Because if he's been to other places, then Trinity and Grand might be the next places he'd be."

"...That's the one when you merged with Sougo and Woz to that three-headed form; right?" Rise asked.

"That's Trinity, yes." Geiz nodded. "... Darn it. I wish I still had Majesty."

"Yeah, I wish I could've seen it." Hishashi agreed.

"Same here. Though Alpina did describe it well." Rise agreed.

"And it would be more than powerful enough." Geiz sighed before standing up "Alright. Let's go."

"Don't you need to rest up?" Rise asked.

"I'll be fine, Rise. We've got this." Geiz answered, reassuring her, wanting to kiss her...but felt awkward to do so. For...So many reasons "I'll see you later." he nodded, walking out of the house "Come on guys."

Hisashi looked at his father, then at his mother. All three of them looking nervous with each other. "S-See you later, mum." He waved.

She waved as she saw her boyfriend and their son leave, still feeling nervous around the pair of them right now. Being in the future and worried about your relationship status with a monster on the loose, weighed a lot on people.

...

Why did she feel so unimportant?


*with Geiz*

Geiz sighed heavily as he felt conflicted about all this. Leaving Rise behind in Sougo's home so he could protect his son and his girlfriend...but was she committed to him?

"You okay dad?" His son asked

"Huh? Oh. Yeah. Yeah, I'm. Just...I'm just thinking about something." Geiz deflected. "... So... Nobunaga?" Geiz questioned as he tried to distract himself "He got his ANeo Rider power, right? The 'next evolution' of Another Rider's?"

"Yes, that's right. It happened shortly after I became a Rider. The Realm of Quartz managed to fully heal." Hisashi answered. "It began to grow and evolve, the Quartz inside changed because of it."

"Really?" Geiz blinked.

"From what you and Uncle Sougo told me when I was little. Yes." Hisashi answered.

"But I couldn't have known...unless you-...Bloody 'Bootstrap Paradox'." Geiz thought before he face-palmed.

He looked back, seeing the group of riders who had gathered to help Hisashi.

"You think they'll be enough?" Geiz asked his son.

"I hope so, Dad. I want to fix this mistake." He answered with a serious nod.

Behind them was Eiji, the new Drive. Alongside Koutaro, New Den-O. Matsuru and Aiyama, the new Kiva and Ghost respectfully. And finally, there was a new guy who joined the group.

It was a young man, brown tied back hair with a blue bang, a black shirt with a blue jacket and jeans and black shoes. "Mr Myokoin." The man spoke respectfully.

"I know you. You were at The End...Aqua; right?" Geiz asked, putting a face to name.

"That's right. I'm Michal Minato. Or Kamen Rider Aqua." He nodded.

"Right, sorry. It's been a while." Geiz apologised.

"It's fine. I owe these guys a lot."

"How many Riders did Uncle Sougo bring with him at 'The End'?" Hisashi asked

"All of them." Geiz answered. "At least in our timeline."

He looked up as he noticed something, where they were.

"Wait. This place-." He whispered and looked around.

"Yeah, this is the place where you and Uncle Sougo and Woz turned into Trinity." Hisashi answered, "For the first time that is."

"This is intense. Just saying it feels like yesterday...So frigging awkward." Geiz admitted

"So you've told me." Hisashi answered as he attached his belt.

"I...I want to know. Am I a good dad?" Geiz asked, attaching his own belt.

"You are the best."

Geiz smiled gently to himself as he heard that, knowing he would do something right.

Soon, electricity sparked in the air, the feeling of someone being summoned before them. And they were right. ANeo Geiz appeared, looking no worse for wear, but looked pissed.

He seemed to pull himself from the ground itself, pulling himself out of a pool of shadows which was just... Disturbing.

"ARGH! That is always uncomfortable!" He grunted and growled.

"Oda Nobunaga!" Geiz called out, glaring at his ancestor.

"Oh, so you know who I am. Good. Then you know what I can do." ANeo Geiz commented. "Now fight me, my new defendant! Our legacy begins!"

"Let's try not to kill him." Geiz whispered to Hisashi.

"I know the rules, Dad." Hisashi answered as both of them activated their RideWatches.

GEIZ!

GEIZ REVIVE! GOURETSU!

NEO GEIZ!

The two slotted their watches into place, energy shooting off them for a moment.

Their two holographic clocks spun behind them, as both Geiz and Hisashi got into their Henshin poses. "HENSHIN!" The two proclaimed and span their belts.

RIDER TIME!

Their bodies were covered in their armour as silver watch-straps encircled them.

KAMEN RI~DER! GEIZ!

ARMOUR TIME! RE-VI-VE! GORETSU~! GORETSU!

KAMEN RI~DER! NEO~! GEIZ~!

Both father and son stood side by side, glaring at Nobunaga as they were ready to stop his tyranny before it began in the future. There will not be another Oma Zi-O.

Meanwhile, behind them, the others all prepared their own Drivers.

"Gabu!"

EYE!

"HENSHIN!"

Strike Form

DRIVE! TYPE: NEXT!

KAIGAN! ORE! LET'S GO! KAKUGO! GO-GO-GHOST!

"So many versus one. Do you have that much paranoia around me, boy?" Nobunaga responded as he made shadows grow.

"He didn't do this before." Next Drive commented as he saw this as monsters emerged from the shadows.

Standing there was the Freeze Roidmude, one of the many Gammaizers, the Rook Fangire and Kamen Rider Poseidon

"Oh hell, this isn't good." Hisashi whispered in shock.

"So; are you ready?" ANeo Geiz commented to his enemies and his allies.

"Attack!"

The monsters and the actual Riders ran at each other, each ready to end the fighting and stop their enemies.

CLASH!

Both Hisashi and Geiz drew out their weapons and aimed for ANeo Geiz.

Geiz was using a new weapon in his new form, a brass knuckle like weapon with a saw-blade.

BZZ!

SLASH!

"Where did you get that weapon?" ANeo Geiz growled as he punched Hisashi.

"I've always had it!" Geiz growled angrily, almost slashing down into ANeo Geiz's armour, for daring to harm his son.

He and his son fought side by side, a pair of powerful forces.

The other Riders continued to fight, using their own skills and strengths against their enemies. It was definitely going to be a hard match to combat with.

Geiz jumped off his son's shoulder, coming down with a powerful strike. "HRAAAAAH!"

BUZZZZ!

SLASH!

ANeo Geiz roared in pain, feeling his armour becoming scrap. But he wasn't going to give up. Not after getting this close to Godhood.

SPEED TIME!

With a twist of his Revive RideWatch, Geiz's orange armour opened up and revealed the dark blue hyper-speed form of Geiz Revive: Shippu!

He became a blur, striking from dozens of directions at once.

ANeo Geiz struggled as he was peppered with these intense speedy punches, his normal vision was impaired as he tried to keep up with Geiz's abilities.

POWER TIME! GORETSU!

And once again Geiz was in his power form, delivering a harsh punch/slash

The saw-blade attack cut deep into ANeo Geiz's armour, leaving a huge gash on its chest...but the ancient Demon Lord was far from done. He grabbed Geiz's wrist and throat since there was little he could do to get out of it.

Neo Geiz jumped up, coming down with a harsh slash.

Nobunaga howled in pain as he stumbled back, his form sparking for a moment.

"Here's our chance!" Geiz yelled, aiming a powerful saw punch... And ANeo Geiz grabbed his arm.

"I'll be adding that power to my data." ANeo Geiz smirked as Geiz's Revive Form flashed for a moment.

Geiz's eyes widened in shock as he was stopped, he could sort of feel his energy being drained by Nobunaga. Was this a power of his? What was going on? "I... Am a Flaming Whirlwind." ANeo Geiz smirked before he turned into a blur of speed. Geiz yelled as he was thrown back, rolling across the floor.

"Dad!" Hisashi called out in fear, seeing their ancestor able to use his father's abilities now. "You son of a-!"

THWACK!

Hisashi was knocked away, rolling onto the ground in pain.

"Why... Why hasn't it arrived?!" ANeo Geiz snarled as he turned around "One more. One more place!"

Grip

"No... No, you don't!" Geiz hissed, trying to pull himself to his feet "I'm not... Letting you go anywhere!"

"You're a fool, boy. Don't you see what I'm trying to do here?" Nobunaga responded. "I'm trying to unify our country!"

He pulled his leg up, throwing Geiz into the air before he span his belt.

AnOtHeR tImE bUrSt!

Nobunaga threw his leg up, which was surrounded by red and purple energy, which he slammed into Geiz's belt.

"Gah!" Geiz gasped as his body locked up. You could see the red energy burst out behind him, almost like a blade being pierced through him.

The other Rider's gasped in horror at the sights as the battles ended.

"DAAAAAAD!" Hisashi yelled in horror.

Geiz's armour sparked away, his RideWatch and the Revived Watch falling to the floor. The two watches clattered away, perfectly fine. Geiz was shaking, his eyes locked with Nobunaga's helmet.

The warlord then pulled his foot back, lowering it to the floor.

Clatter

Geiz's ZikuDriver fell to the floor... As a destroyed mess.

His Driver was destroyed, shattered by Nobunaga's attack.

Geiz slumped over, falling to his knees. His eyes rolled into his head... And fell unconscious


*Time Skip*

Geiz's body felt heavy, resting in the bed at Sougo's home. He was bandaged up and technically powerless, he had his RIdeWatches...but no means to transform.

...

Why did this happen to him?

He lost count of how many times he was beaten down, reduced to this state. Feeling... Useless.

...

Why was he even fighting right now?! This... This shouldn't be his fight, should it?!

He didn't know these people. He shouldn't be responsible...

It wasn't his job to protect these people.

So...

Why?

Why was he still here?

He looked up, ready to throw a pillow... And he saw it on a wall.

A picture.

On it, he saw them.

Sougo, Alpina and Aura.

The three of them... As adults. In their early twenties.

Sougo had cut his hair to look neater, wearing a pink shirt with blue jeans, his arms around both Aura and Alpina.

Aura had shorter black hair that was swept to the side, wearing a blue jean jacket with a silver styled shirt, back jeans that hugged her legs and heeled shoes.

And finally was Alpina, her long black hair with a braid in her hair down her back, wearing a white dress and black stockings with flat shoes.

They looked so happy together.

In front of them were two figures, they looked to be about two or three at the time when the picture was taken. Geiz knew instantly, those were their children.

There was a young girl with soft red hair sitting between Sougo and Aura, wearing a pair of blue overalls, flat shoes and had a small clock-styled hair-clip in her hair.

And between Sougo and Alpina was a young boy, black-haired with a pink shirt and blue shorts with sandals.

They almost looked identical to Aura and Sougo, but the young boy had Alpina's kind eyes.

They were a happy family... but they weren't the only ones there.

They took up half the pic, yes, but to the side... were three more.

Geiz's eyes widened, seeing a younger Hisashi... and an older version of himself.

'There's...that's me.' He thought in shock, seeing his older self, not quite growing the 'dad beard'; but looking a little exhausted. Maybe Hisashi was an energetic child? But it didn't matter right then...they looked happy. But, there wasn't Rise.

Where was she?

Was she not his wife? Or his girlfriend in this timeline? What did he do? Did he drive her away?

But at the... at the same time... didn't Hisashi say they were happy?

'What did I do?' He thought to himself as he looked at the picture. 'Rise, I'm sorry.'

However looking there, at that picture on the wall...

He knew his job, he knew what he was.

He had to protect the future, no matter what. It was why he travelled back in time... to protect families like those he saw in that picture. And it didn't matter if this future might not be the one he ended up with, that was his son!

He had a job to do.

His eyes widened as he noticed it, a sparkle in the corner of the room. Forcing himself from the bed he hurried over, opening a suitcase... to find a black box with his Rider Symbol on it. The box was locked but...

He raised his RideWatch, the Geiz Watch glowing... and the box popped open, revealing a new ZikuDriver. Alongside two chunks of Gold Quartz... and a letter.

I knew I'd need this one day. Just remember to make it one day.

Your future self

Geiz looked at the letter and at the Driver, chuckling to himself. "I'm a dick in the future." He commented about himself.

Geiz also noticed something else in the box... it was an old black military jacket.

He pulled the jacket out of the box. Clad in his trousers, with bandages wrapped all around his chest, he gripped the jacket and Driver tightly. And like that... he turned and ran off.

"Where are you going?!" a voice called at him as he opened the door.

"Rise..." Geiz muttered.

"You are hurt! Why are you running off?!" Rise called.

"I have to stop him." he muttered seriously.

"Geiz, you're hurt! I don't want you to go!" Rise snapped at him.

"IT'S MY JOB, RISE!" he snapped "My job as a Kamen Rider... and as a FATHER! To protect people, even if I die! Especially Hisashi! And that man... Nobunaga. I've met him before. Twice. Both times he gave me power, so I could stand side by side with Sougo as equals. First when I died... and the second when I became Geiz Majesty... I lost the later power but... I... I want to know why he helped me before but now he is using my power like this?! Besides, he is a Demon King! And I stop Demon Kings!"

SLAP!

Geiz stumbled a bit, red cheek shining

"Will... will you stop talking with that nonsense?" she sniffed, crying "I... Geiz! This isn't a manga! You could die! And what about those around you, who care about you?! You aren't a little kid playing superhero! We... what happens to everyone who loves you if you die?"

"They'll either die too because I couldn't save them... or they'll be safe." he frowned

"I-You-He!" Rise stuttered, sniffing "FINE! GO YOU ASSHOLE!" she snapped "I should have known you'd choose... this, over family! I-I guess I was right about those floozy's at your office!"

"What?" Geiz blinked

"Just go! This is more important to you!" Rise cried as she stomped out of the room. "God, I wish Izawa was here!"

"Izawa?! That prick?! What's he got to do with this?!" Geiz gasped/yelled

"Don't talk about him like that! My producer is a great guy!"

"He's creepy! He hangs around you all the time!" Geiz snapped. "He's like a stalker at your own job!"

SLAP!

"Mr. Izawa. Is a GREAT man! He's loyal unlike you! You and those floozies at your workspace!" She shouted at him.

"AGAIN! What's with these 'floozies'? Explain to me, why you think I'm cheating on you?" Geiz shouted back

"Do you really think I am THAT stupid?!" she snapped before walking away.

"No! Wait...Y-Do you think that I'm cheating on you...With a fan-club?!" Geiz asked as he slowly clicked together but it was too late, the door was closed. Geiz rubbed his cheek out of pain and sighed...this was their first fight in a long time. "God damn it." He frowned.

He spun, punching the wall as hard as could before he sighed and walked away.


*time skip*

Geiz approached a hill, a memorial. It was where the powers of Majesty and Grand worked side by side.

He took a deep breath and sighed heavily. "Here we go." He whispered as he remembered that day. The day Sougo changed everything for the better; at least that was his intent.

And he saw a man approaching him.

He was an older gentleman, black hair, wearing a Shogun's clothing with a symbol of a five-petalled flower on his back, having a pair of flint-lock guns by his side and a confident look on his face.

"Nobunaga." Geiz commented

"Hello, boy. Come for the last waltz? And the birth of a new Japan?" Nobunaga asked, smiling at his descendent.

"I have a question. Why do you want to 'unite Japan'? Why do you refer to yourself as a Demon Lord?" Geiz asked.

"I wanted to stop the in-fighting. Uniting all of Japan under one banner. No more minor lords trying to vie for power and permanently splitting our country into micronations. No more fractured relations from corrupt and greedy politicians. No more wars that last for generations past our lifetimes. As for my title of 'Demon Lord'...I burned down a temple, killing the warrior monks inside. Years I besieged that temple before I set alight the trees and the winds bent to my will; burning all inside. I proclaimed to everyone who could hear, screaming to the Kami in all of our nation "I am Oda Nobunaga! The King of the Sixth Heaven!"." Nobubaga called out, proclaiming his deeds and proud of it. "That. Geiz. Is why I am called 'The Demon King'. The one who would've unified our home. I would be forever known as the monster Japan fears...but a hero in history."

...

ZIKUDRIVER

"You had good intentions... But those actions. That cruelty and darkness... Corrupting completely. Not caring about who might be hurt. Just like what you are doing now." Geiz muttered. He had attached his belt to his waist "How many?"

"Oh?" Nobunaga blinked "How many what?"

"How many lives... How many FAMILIES do you think are going to be lost by you changing history the way you want to?!" Geiz roared

"Collateral damage for a greater good. They will be remembered by our family." Nobunaga pulled out the ANeo Geiz Watch.

AnEo GeIz

"I'll stop you." Geiz glared at him angrily. In one hand, his Geiz Watch. In the other, one of the two pieces of Blue Quarts "I won't let you steal the lives... Of EVERYONE! I will protect them all... SAVE THEM ALL! JUST WATCH ME!"

Suddenly the small chunk of Golden Quartz exploded, merging with the Geiz Watch...

GEIZ MAJESTY!

"Then show me...Your Ambition!" Nobunaga proclaimed, shoving the Another RideWatch into his chest.

"HENSHIN!" Geiz proclaimed, splitting his Geiz Majesty RideWatch in half before slotting the two pieces on either side of his belt and almost punched the top button on his belt, where royal trumpeting surrounded Geiz and he spun his Driver.

MAJESTY TIME!

The two rings of red and gold lifted themselves up from his feet to over his head. Meanwhile, small circular gems flew around him like celebratory petals

MAJESTY TIME!

Suddenly the surrounding rings turned into glowing red and golden partials, falling down onto Geiz like flower petals and solidifying itself.

G3, KNIGHT, KAIXA, GARREN~, IBUKI, GATTACK~!

Geiz was covered in a new golden holograph-like armour with axe-head styled shoulder-guards and a flowing bronze cape as the golden shine disappeared and revealed the red body armour he now possessed.

ZERONOS, IXA, DIEND~, ACCEL!

His boots were red with golden and bronze edges, bronze-gold shin guards and black kneecaps, black gloves with bronze plating to protect his hands and gold-bronze bracers, a cloth-like gold and bronze watch-strap going from his chest to his waist; a dragon-head inspired chest-plate made out of black and red metal with gold and bronze detailing.

BIRTH, METEOR, BEAST, BARON!

His shoulder-guards looked to have gears engraved into their design and red edges on the main part of the design.

MACH, SPECTER, BRA~VE!

Appearing on his body in various places were golden plates depicting symbols of the secondary Riders. Two on each of his thighs, two on his bracers; four plates on his chest, two on the left and right. And on both of his axe-blade shoulder-guards were three more symbols, six in total.

On his right shoulder were the symbols for G3, Knight and Kaixa. On his right arm were the symbols of Garren and Ibuki. On his right thigh were the symbols of Gattack and Zeronos. On the right half of his chest were Ixa and DiEnd's symbols. Meanwhile on his left shoulder were Accel, Birth and Meteor's symbols. His left arm held Beast and Baron's symbols. On his left thigh sat Mach and Specter's symbols. And finally on the left half of his chest sat Brave and Cross-Z's symbols. These gates were much smaller than the ones on Grand Zi-O, curved and circular. Taking up a lot less space.

CRO~SS-Z~!

Finally, his visor Hiragana lettering came flying towards him. The writing still read 'Rider' but it was much more elegant and fancier. The letter's attached in a flurry of flashes and thuds.

A final gate attached to his forehead as the normal white Geiz mask was dyed red, the gate opening to reveal Geiz's own symbol.

KA~MEN~

ANeo Geiz frowned at his foe, the winds blowing around them.

RI~DER~!

Appearing out of nowhere came the monsters that ANeo Geiz had summoned in the past to fight alongside him again. The Freeze Roidmude, one of the many Gammaizers, the Rook Fangire and Kamen Rider Poseidon

AA~HH~!

Nobunaga rushed forwards, aiming a powerful punch to Geiz's face.

GEIZ!

CLANG!

Geiz growled, his grip tightening around Nobunaga's hand. He blocked the punch, his Rider form sparking and glowing.

MAJE~STY~!

"Let's do this." Geiz stated simply as his visor shone brightly.

And with that, Geiz became the one-man army against the forces of Oda Nobunaga and his minion monsters.

He threw Nobunaga's arm up, kicking him in the gut as he hit his own suit.

KNIGHT!

The WingLancer appeared into his hand, spiralling the weapon and slashing with his spear weapon.

SLASH!

CLASH!

SLASH!

Geiz lunged forward, using the bladed lance to strike against his ancestor and his enemies, he was going to save the future and send him back.

BIRTH!

The BirthBuster quickly replaced the bladed weapon, Geiz opening fire with his new device.

Poseidon took the full brunt of the attack, shot back by the energy blast and into the air as Geiz continued the assault.

Geiz dodged to the side, throwing his cape up. The blast of energy from the Freeze Roidmude barely missed him as Geiz took aim.

CELL BURST!

The large ball of red and gold energy flew through the air and hit the Roidmude hard.


*elsewhere*

"Damn." Hisashi hissed as he arrived back at the Tokiwa household "We could find him. I hope dad's okay."

"You can go. But I'm not. He's lied to me." Rise wept as she was heartbroken because of Geiz 'lying' to her

"Huh? Mum?" he blinked "What are you talking about? And where's dad?"

"He left!" she snapped "And why are you calling me mum, anyway?! You're probably not my son, that bastard was probably cheating on me with those stupid fangirls at his work! That's why he cares about his stupid job so much, if he didn't have it he'd lose all his tail!"

"I... Did you two have a fight?" he asked,

"It wasn't a fight... It was the end." she said with tears down her face... And she began to cry into her hands. "Damn him... I wasted so much time on that cheater! I... I love him and he did this to me?!"

"Cheater? Mum... What are you talking about?" he asked.

And so... Tell him she did. Rise told him everything. About how Geiz had been jealous of her producer and friend, and how EVERY woman at Geiz's job wanted him. How the two didn't spend enough time together... And about their fight right now

"I was such a fool." she cried

...

"Wait here." Hisashi sighed before he went upstairs

Rise looked onwards in confusion... Before Hisashi returned, holding a picture.

The picture Geiz had been holding.

"Look at this." he encouraged.

"You're all so happy..." Rise muttered "And I'm not there. You've proven it to me. He doesn't need me, we aren't-"

"YOU are the one taking the picture," Hisashi said simply.

"Wh-what?" She asked as she looked at the picture.

"You took. This picture." Hisashi repeated. "Neither of you have even looked at another person while you were together." He put the picture in her hands, looking into her eyes "You are the reason he fights. The reason he comes home. Because without you... What was the point in him even protecting people? You are the world to dad... That's why he didn't know what you were talking about! He is so focused on you that he doesn't even NOTICE the girls at work flirt at him! To him, they are just being friendly because all he cares about is you!"

"He-He doesn't-?" She whispered, unpacking what she just heard. She was so wrong. "Geiz." She realised as she wiped her eyes and she rushed away.

"That's my mum." Hisashi smiled as he ran after her, grabbing his Driver just in case.


*back at the battle*

BARON!

ACCEL!

Summoned in Geiz's hands were a banana-motif lance and a long silver sword with a black and red grip in his hands, slashing and jabbing into the enemies, while ANeo Geiz ran as fast as he could to strike at Geiz.

ANeo Geiz was as fast as the wind and striking with a lot of powerful blazing blows, mostly able to keep up with Geiz.

"Ha!" Geiz called as he jumped up, throwing his weapons aside. Said weapons slashed at the other foes. As the red rider landed, he rolled around back to his feet. She spun around and slashed his cape, forcing more foes back

GARREN!

SPECTER!

The GanGunHand and GarrenRouzer appeared in his hands, Geiz pointing the weapons against Nobunaga's stomach, and unloaded all the clips he could.

Rapid-fire shots and miniature rounds peppered and spread all over ANeo Geiz's stomach, shooting him back with intensity; causing the Demon King to roll into the ground and smoking.

"Hehe... Well done, boy." ANeo Geiz snickered

METEOR!

"WATAAA!" Geiz called while punching the Rook Fangire in the chest with the Meteor Galaxy equipped

MARS, ON! READY? MARS! LIMIT BREAK!

IXA!

Geiz jumped over the Fangire and came down with a double haymaker surround by red energy, punching through his foe with the Meteor Galaxy and the Ixa Knuckle.

G3!

ZERONOS!

GATTACK!

"Clock Up!" Geiz called as Gattack's power coursed through him. He rushed forth as time seemed to stop, using the ZeroCasher and the Cerberus to blast his foes.

Clock Over

BRAVE!

SHINK!

GASHACON SWORD!

"ARGH!" The foes screamed as they were slashed and burned by Geiz's borrowed sword.

KA CHIN~!

The sword erupted in flames, slashing away

"This! Ends! Here!" Geiz roared, slashing at them all to get to Nobunaga.

CROSS-Z!

BEATCROSSER!

"Couldn't agree more." ANeo Geiz grunted, getting back to his feet and summoned more of his collected power.

SPECIAL TUNE!

HIPPARE!

AnOtHeR tImE bUrSt!

"HA!" the two roared and slashed each other, their blades meeting and causing a shock wave they pushed them back

FINISH TIME! MAJESTY!

DIEND!

BEAST!

KAIXA!

Geiz vanished in a dimensional curtain, shocking ANeo Geiz...

Suddenly Geiz was behind him, slashing Nobunaga in a cross slash. The strike cutting into his back armour.

"Gah!" he gasped

Spark!

Zzz!

Crackle!

"Gah!" Geiz gasped, nearly falling to his knees "D-Damn. I... Need to finish this. Fast!" he hissed and span his belt

EL SALVATORE TIME BURST!

Geiz leapt into the air and summoned all the powers of the Secondary Riders within himself, creating temporal images of them as they all merged together as he rocketed down to the Another Rider with a Rider Kick

Shatter!

"Gah!" Geiz gasped as the form of Geiz Majesty faded away, Geiz to the floor as the golden Quartz scattered to the floor. Meanwhile, the Geiz Watch landed next to him.

"That was close." Nobunaga admitted as his ANeo form faded away, the war Lord falling to his knees "That attack... Could... no. It would have ended me. Looks like that golden rock was not able to keep up with you."

"Yeah." Geiz panted as he pulled himself to his feet "But... That doesn't mean anything! I'm still...Gonna win!"

"I'd like to see you try!" Nobunaga grinned softly.

Flash!

"Huh?" Geiz blinked

"It's here!" Nobunaga grinned

A small portal came out of the sky, shooting like a golden star, the Ohtori's wings spread out like a majestic creature.

A familiar trill filled the air, the Ohtori flying down and spinning.

"Come to me, Ohtori!" Nobunaga leapt up at the bird, demanding it submits to him.

GEIZ GIWA GIWA SHOOT!

A red arrow flew through the air, almost hitting the Ohtori. It screeched and flew back around vanishing.

"NO!" Nobunaga screamed as he saw the Ohtori fly away. "What've you done? What have you DONE?!"

"No. More. Demon Kings." Geiz answered, panting heavily.

AnEo GeIz!

"i'M gOiNg To KiLl YoU!" ANeo Geiz roared, lunging at Geiz with his vicious claws. "YoU sToLe ThE fUtUrE fRoM mE!"

Shink!

"You've had your time, Nobunaga." Geiz answered, standing against his ancestor and enemy.

Stab!

Geiz was frozen in shock, looking in front of him.

Nobunaga looked in front of him with his hand plunged into a stomach.

...

And Hisashi between them, having taken the hit for his father.

Geiz felt all the life drain out of him, seeing his son die in front of his eyes.

"HISASHI!" Rise screamed from not that far away

Nobunaga pulled his hand out of Hisashi, letting him fall to the ground where Geiz caught him. "SON!"

ANeo Geiz stepped away, seeing Geiz fall to his knees, knowing what he had done...and knew that he would come after him.

So he didn't run.

Nobunaga let his Monster Form fade away once again and waited... In respect.

Hisashi gasped for air as he felt the life drain from him, grabbing his father's hand while blood came from his mouth.

"Don't. Don't you die. You can't!" Geiz told his son, grabbing his bloody hand. "C-Come on son, you can't die!"

Hisashi looked up at his father, trying to smile as he saw the man who his father was. "Hisashi! Oh god. No, Geiz. Please! Please don't die!"

"Dad... You were always my hero." he smiled weakly

"You can't leave us!" Rise called as she hugged him, pulling Hisashi's head into her shoulder

Geiz choked up as he held his son's hand...and realised that he had his son's RideWatch in his bloody hand. "Hisashi." He whispered as he slowly stood up and his hands shook in fear and anger. "Rise... Get our son to safety." he hissed as he pulled himself to his feet.

"Geiz?" she blinked in shock.

"Do it." he urged softly "He's not gone yet. He didn't go all the way through. Get him to a hospital, keep the pressure on his wound. You can save him. I know you can."

The world froze, Rise's lips suddenly against his. The world just seemed... Right.

"Then you kick his ass and win." she encouraged.

"Right." he nodded.

Rise carefully picked Hisashi up, hurrying to the nearby hospital.

"The boy has been brave in our battles." Nobunaga nodded.

"His name... Was Hisashi Myokoin. My SON!" GeIz roared as he put his famous jacket on with a flourish.

Geiz stood tall, grabbing his own watch... And suddenly a miracle happened.

The two watches glowed... And merged.

PARADOX!

Geiz looked down at the forming red light and beheld a new RideWatch in his hand, forming into a larger RideWatch than he had anticipated, as it filled his whole palm with his fingers gripping it tightly. In his hand, Gwiz beheld a strange elongated black base with metallic red markings RideWatch with a metallic red face-plate with his Rider mask on the front, a gold rotation dial on the right-hand side and a button on the left-hand side.

Geiz was silent... And he laughed "Of course." he grinned, holding the watch in his right hand. He brought his arm up, crossing it over his body, so the watch was resting beside his head "I am the saviour, after all. And I'm going to save my son's future!" he called, pressing the button atop the device

GEIZ! PARADOX!

Geis flicked his right thumb, turning the dial. This caused the metallic red-ringed image of his base forms helmet to spring to the left, revealing the image of a secondary mask on the right side of the watch.

The other Future Riders all arrived on the scene at that time, shocked to see what was going on.

GeIz flexed his hand slightly, 'cracking' the watch in half

GEIZ~

Geiz loosened his thumb, forefinger and middle finger of his right hand. The left half of the watch suddenly fell without his fingers support, twisting and rolling in the air, only for Geiz's left hand to casually slip it onto the left side of the ZikuDriver. And in the same motion, he unlatched the device. Geiz's normal techno standby began to play, alongside a secondary tune. The secondary tune was the same style, but a different beat. Gripping the right side of his new watch tightly, GeIz thruster his arm out far to the right, before slotting it back into place while the belt was still tilted

Behind him were two of his normal Digital Clocks connected by the Revive hourglass between them. One clock, the one in the right, was ticking forwards while the left moved backwards

Geiz threw his arms forward like he was projecting a ball of energy, recalled them back spun them around until his left hand clasped the upwards tilt of the Driver and his right clasped the underside. He gripped the belt tightly... And span.

PARADOX TIME!

A series of black and red watch straps appeared around GeIz, roasting around him quickly as yellow hiragana shot out of the watches.

AnEo GeIz

Nobunaga quickly transformed to defend himself, looking on curiously

"HENSHIN!" GeIz roared as body armour began to form over him.

TWO IN ONE! PAST AND FUTURE IN ONE!

The digital clocks span around causing a displacement around him, showing a primitive past and a technological future. Geiz's Hiragana lettering appeared on both clock-faces, as red watch-straps overlapped over Geiz's body; the lettering immediately leapt off and combined together as Geiz was becoming armoured up.

TWO MANY IMPOSSIBILITIES!

Geiz's body armour was black with red protrusion plating, silver kneecaps with hourglasses depicting on them, red armoured gloves and boots, a pair of watch straps going over his shoulders with hexagonal markings, bulky shoulder-pads that seemed to be mainly black with dark blue plating. Finally his helmet, a solid black mask with protruding yellow Hiragana words that read 'Rider' and a red circle around his face with hexagonal protrusions.

KA~MEN~! RAI~ DA~!

The others looked on in wonder and amazement, Geiz's form shining.

AAAAAA~HHHH~!

Nobunaga grinned in excitement, his fist clenching.

G~EI~Z~!

There was a last burst of light, black and red tailcoats emerged from the suit, hanging to his knees. Two clock hand capes emerging from his back, the clock hands being red and black and having a slightly 'pixelated' look to them. And with that, his transformation was finished.

PARA~! DOX~!

Geiz's belt, his Hiragana eyes and his forehead rider symbol all flashed as his power coursed through his body.

Rise looked in shock and awe as she saw Geiz standing there in his newest form, standing tall and strong against his ancestor. It was like she remembered him when they first met.

Ring, ring.

Ring, ring.

"Huh?"

"...you want to get that?" Nobunaga asked, letting Geiz get his phone.

"Who's calling me?" Geiz wondered and saw an unknown number. "Um...hello?" He pressed the answer and loudspeaker symbols.

"IWAE!" An older man's voice called through.

"Gah! The hell?!" Geiz yelled.

"Travelling through the past into the future as its saviour! The hero who ensures that the broken laws of time are repaired! His name is Kamen Rider Geiz Paradox! This is the day that both past and future will obtain a new chapter!"

...

"Woz?! Is that you?" Geiz yelled in shock.

"Why yes Geiz, it is. My, you do sound young. Your present-day self was correct. He has been nagging me about this date and time for years to make sure I did not forget." The older Woz commented.

...

"God damn it, I'm a dick in the future." Geiz groaned, facepalming and shook his head because of his future stuff.

"Geiz!" Rise called out, making both Geiz and Nobunaga look at her. "...Kick his ass."

Geiz nodded and clashed his fists together, causing a spark. "Yosh. Nobunaga!"

"Hmm?" He glared.

"There is one rule I follow in life, protecting people no matter the cost! You want to change history so billions were never born AND you hurt my son?! I'm going to crush you... And turn you into SCRAP!"

Nobunaga began to shake at that. Not from fear...But from excitement! A challenge had appeared! His descendent had grown a spine! "Try it, Geiz!" He laughed like a crazed man, summoning a vast amount of lesser creatures to aid him. "COME, MY DECENSANT! LET US BATTLE FOR HISTORY ITSELF!"

CRACK!

"Bring it old man!" Geiz glared and stepped forward, which became two, became a sprint and then a full-on dash.

"Guys... Let's help him!" Eiji called

"Yeah, we can't let him fight on his own." Kotaro agreed. "Teddie, let's go."

"Of course."

"Eiji, start our Engine!" Krim called

"Hey Kivat, party time buddy!" Masao called

"Let's go, Masao!" Kivat the Fourth responded. "GABU!" And bit into his hand.

Miharu pulled out tomorrow's underwear, grinning. "Let's go." He spoke as he summoned his own belt again, the silver and blue belt that was fuelled by water.

Ayami summoned his Ghost Driver, gripping his Eyecon tightly.

All the Future Riders got into position and poses, ready to strike and..."Henshin!"

DRIVE! TYPE: NEXT!

Strike Form!

KAIGAN! ORE! LET'S GO! KAKUGO! GO-GO-GO-GHOST!

All the Future Riders transformed into their Kamen Rider states, running in to help Geiz, who was already in the thick of the fighting.

PUNCH!

CRACK!

KICK!

Geiz had become a force of nature and he was aiming for Nobunaga. Geiz was ducking and jumping around, looking almost like a pinball.

"Ikuze, ikuze, ikuze!" New Den-O cheered as he and his friends ran in and fought, carving through the enemies altogether to help Geiz out.

"You won't stop me!" Geiz proclaimed, punching and ploughing through the enemies at his highest speed. This new form. It felt amazing. Not as strong as Majesty, but certainly a league above Revive.

"Our count starts at Zero!" New Den-O proclaimed proudly while slashing with Teddie's sword form

Geiz felt it. The speed of Shippu, the strength of Gouresu. And... Something else under the surface he hadn't summoned yet.

"Rargh!" One of the monsters leapt at Geiz, only to have his head kicked in by Miharu.

Kamen Rider Aqua landed, letting water spiral around him proudly

"You get ANeo Geiz! We've got the mooks!" Aqua called out to him.

Geiz gave a firm nod in response, turning his gaze to Nobunaga who was running right at him.

He jumped up, his foot hitting one mooks face... And Geiz was now flying! "Wh-what the HELL?!" He called out in shock. The clock hands on his back had expanded out into large red wings, made out of red digital pixels.

"He can fly?" Eiji gasped

"He can fly?" Rise followed up.

"He can FLY!" Miharu finished.

"So can we; but no-one's singing praise about that!" Masao deadpanned as he pointed to himself and New Ghost.

"Masao, not now!" Ayami commented as he pulled out a new EyeCon.

"I'm just saying!" Masao responded, punching a mook in the face.

Geiz focused himself, zooming through the air like a dart at his foe.

Nobunaga looked up at Geiz, seeing the rocketing descendent coming right at him...and clenched his fist, ready to throw a fist full of claws right into his face.

Geiz twisted his body, throwing his foot out for a powerful kick.


*with Next Drive*

"HA! Hrah! Come on!" Eiji called out, punching and kicking the mooks in his close vicinity. "Mr Belt, we need to shift!"

"Okay, Eiji! Next Shift Cars, deploy!" Krim called

Suddenly the mooks were being assaulted by a barrage of shift cars, all with new decor and enhanced abilities.

"Grawr!" the Scissors Lost Smash roared as it came rushing down, slashing with her bladed hands.

"Whoa!" Eiji called as he managed to jump away in time, catching one of the cars "Damn, this might be tough! Alright then Mr Steinbelt, let's Start Our Mission!"

"Okay! Engines all charged!" The living belt called as the Ignition Switch on his belt was twisted.

VRRRMMM!

Eiji grabbed one and flipped it's rear-side and swapped the car on his wrist and activated it.

"DRIVE! TYPE! JACKPOT!" Krim called out as Eiji had gained a new form.

A series of holographic armour pieces appeared around Eiji, flying onto his body. At the same time, the armour of Type Next faded away. The new armour attached and solidified, revealing a new form.

Eiji's bodysuit became a light silver with a golden tire around his shoulder with a jackpot wheel's design, blue eyes and black boots and gloves.

"Full Throttle!" the two roared and rushed forwards

VRRRM!

THWACK!

PUNCH!

KICK!

CHING!

"HA!" he roared, slamming his knee into his foe's jaw...


*with New Ghost*

"Ha! Ho, hragh!" New Ghost proclaimed, fighting the mooks with his multi-use sword.

The GanGunSaber slashed through the foes, ripping through their armour and form.

ZAP!

"Wow!" Ayami yelled as he jumped up into the air, spinning a bit. He came to a stop, floating in the sky, to see his foe.

It was the Weather Dopant, who had red lightning sparking over his form.

"Darn it." Ayami frowned as he landed and pulled out an EyeCon "Let's go, Arthur-sama!" he called. The EyeCon was a metallic gold with white standby time. He gripped the EyeCon, his thumb slamming the Ghost Liberator to switch the EyeCon to the startup time. The EyeCon's startup time had a rainbow coloured 6.

Ayami hit the button atop his Driver, opening it and removing his EyeCon. The white New Ore Parka and the Persona Pantheon faded away.

"No!" Weather hissed and slashed its arm, launching a large cold wave at Ayami.

"HA!" Ayami called, slamming the New EyeCon into the belt while jumping and spinning. He moved, dodging the attack while slamming his belt closed.

EYE~!

A golden Parka Ghost shot out of the belt and rushed forwards, slamming against Weather.

BATCHIRIMINA~! BATCHIRIMINA~! BATCHIRIMINA~!

Ayami pumped the orange handle of his belt, switching the EyeCon to Transformation Time.

KAIGAN: ARTHUR~! TEBURU NO OSAMA! RAUNDO NO KISHI!

A golden mask with an upwards pointing sword slammed up onto Ayumu's face, his body was cloaked in a golden parka with silver edges, a pair of protruding shoulder-guards that seemed to have a pair of tailcoats attached.

Suddenly a small bird flew down and attached to the tip of the Ayami's sword. If you looked close you'd notice it seemed similar to the CondorDenwa only bulkier. The bird's wings folded upwards and inwards, connecting either side of its beak, forming a larger blade

"Time for a Great Shine!" Ayami called, slashing with his blade

And with that single horizontal slash, a third of the enemies that were in Ayumu's way was cloven in two.


*With New Kiva*

Masao was fighting as strongly as he could, using all he had to keep up with his fellow Riders. 'Come on! I can't fail here!' He thought. 'They're counting on me!'

He pulled out a red Fuestle. The Fuestle was mostly clear, outside the tip which was a deep red and in the shape of a love heart. Flicking his wrist he set it into Kivat the 4th's mouth and pushed his jaw closed

"Succu Whip!" The bat called as he blew the Fuestle, unleashing a powerful noise which went to a rather fast pace almost sensual beat.

Suddenly a glowing golden orb flew through the air, smashing against a few mooks before Masao managed to grab hold of the light.

Suddenly chains began to wrap around his right arm and chest.

They soon fully formed over Masao's arm and chest, transforming into a pair of bat-wings that covered is chest and protruding from his shoulder; silver-edged armour and gloves with a chain-whip.

The chain of the whip was made out of silver chain links, a few black thorn-like spikes coming out of it. The end of the whip was made of black metal shaped like an upside-down love heart. The grip of the whip was made of black leather and crunched under his grip. And there was a handguard over the handle, shaped like a well-shaped woman curved up in a provocative pose.

You could hear a female giggle, a woman briefly being reflected in the yellow visor of the Rider before it flashed and the Rider's large yellow eyes had changed to pink.

"Ara ara... Masao. Calling me up for a date like this? You do have my number, Darling." A seductive female voice spoke from the weapon

"Sorry babe, just need to give these punks some punishment!" Masao grinned

"Then let us go!" she cheered


*with Aqua*

Aqua had leapt over a group of goons, kicking and punching as best as he could, coming face to face with Weather and the threat that he posed. He gave a few harsh kicks, getting Weather away from Ayami. He was a better fit for this for anyway. "You're not a bad hit, boy." Weather commented as he was about to summon a lightning bolt only for Aqua to just stand there.

"Secret Technique 23, Gel Body!" Aqua called as his body turned INTO water flowing around the lightning bolt.

"Impossible!" Weather gasped, before being slugged hard in the face and fall to the ground.

"I learned from my mentors." Minato answered, cracking his knuckles.


*with New Den-O*

"Come on, come on! You guys can do better!" The blue rider called while slashing with his sword

With each slash, New Den-O got more excited, feeling the rush that his grandfather told him about...maybe his 'Momotaros' was showing.

Sure enough, his sword was eventually caught by the Capricorn Zodiart.

...

And Kotaro just pulled the trigger of his weapon, the gun barrel in Teddie's blade shooting his foe in the chest.

BOOM!

"Yosha!" Kotaro cheered excitedly.


*with Geiz*

Both Geiz and Nobunaga were fighting; with Geiz in the air and Nobunaga on the ground, the two fought like an eagle versus a snake.

Suddenly a punch of hiragana shot out of his belt, catching Nobunaga by surprise. The hiragana hit him, knocking him back before they flew back towards Geiz.

At the same time, the Jikan Zax and Jikan Jack appeared besides Geiz. The hiragana came to a stop and began to evolve, turning into a new weapon as Geiz wrapped his hand around it.

SAIKYO JAHALBERD!

"Nani?!" Both Geiz and Nobunaga gasped in shock, seeing Geiz's new weapon.

CLANG!

"Oh no you don't!" Geiz grunted as he was almost hit by Nobunaga's claws coming his way, but blocked it with his newest weapon.

The weapon was a long black staff with red computer lines across it, the staff being almost as long as Geiz was tall. Near face level... was a copy of Geiz's base form's helmet, sat proudly and calmly. As it finished forming, the Zax unfolded into its bow mode and attached to the front of the weapon so the Geiz mask was on the left/inner side, and the Jaclaw attached to the back in its claw mode.

The weapon flashed in Geiz's grip for a moment as it finished solidifying.

"It's like the Saikyo Glaide..." Geiz blinked before he grinned. He knew JUST how to use this thing now, especially as he noticed two small buttons on the white part of the mask. He reached up and tapped the left button, making the 'Rider' Hiragana on the mask change to say 'saviour' in hiragana.

KYUUSEISHOU

"Uh-oh." ANeo Geiz gasped as he saw the halberd coming right at him.

CLASH!

EL SALVATORE CUTTING!

A large shockwave of yellow and red energy blasted through the air, cutting into ANeo Geiz

ANeo Geiz screamed out in pain, being carved like a turkey and flying through the air as he was attacked. This new power Geiz had, all this strength; it was amazing. And it made him laugh harder.

"Let's go." Geiz hissed.

'My descendent...My enemy. What a thrilling war!' ANeo Geiz thought as he leapt into the fight, pulling out a flintlock rifle at Geiz, which seemed to have been transformed alongside him.

No Matter how reality may put you to the test!

BANG!

The blast shot through the air, but Geiz slashed his weapon. The world went slow, the bullet being caught between the Jaclaw's blades and being snapped in half.

Gods above you work to push you to your best!

BOOM!

Geiz ground his boot into the ground, and he was off.

Nobunaga laughed, jumping forth as well.

Two streaks of red rushed towards each other, before disengaging only to rush forth once more.

All day!

All night!

Geiz shifted his head to the side, letting Nobunaga's fist slide past his helmet. Small sparks flew from his suit as it was scratched before Geiz slammed a leg up his knee into Nobunaga's gut

Though it may be hard, and could leave you broken and scared!

The two rushed back down towards the ground, Geiz stabbing his weapon to the ground and rotated his body.

As Nobunaga fell to the ground, he received a harsh kick to the stomach.

In my heart I know you won't give up the fight!

Because you showed me I could be the light!

Geiz landed and pulled his weapon from the ground... and quickly raised it

SLAM

Shockwaves burst from their bodies, Nobunaga having tried to preform a surprise slash with his monstrous axe. Geiz had managed to block on time, the two fighting in a small push of raw strength

Oh yeah!

All right!

ZZZZZZ!

Go fight 'till the break of dawn!

"HA!" the two roared, breaking their hold on each other, before weapons were replaced with fists. The two did their best to punch the other, however, their fists were only met with their opposite numbers.

This blasted the two apart, their boots skidding across the ground.

Be brave and gimmie, gimmme power, power, power, power!

Geiz threw his weapon aside and rushed forwards. He had sparks of red bursting from his form as he moved.

Nobunaga caught himself and threw another punch, but Geiz was ready.

The Future Guardian raised an arm, blocking the blow with his forearm before he clocked Nobunagain the jaw with a harsh jab. Then there was a cross with his other hand. And then a flurry of jabs from both fists again and again and again in rapid succession.

Let the strength within you shine!

Punch after punch after punch. Geiz threw all he had at Nobunaga, the two rushing through the grassy terrain.

Suddenly Nonunaga used an opening, grabbing Geiz's arm. He span them, slamming Geiz hard into the ground.

BOOM!

Rock, mud and grass flew up in large chunks as Geiz was slammed into the ground, Nobunaga bringing his axe down for another blow

Even if you fall, I know you'll rise up and try it all over again!

Geiz managed to grab the blade with both hands, using Nobunmaga's own momentum to throw him away.

The war lord's eyes widened before he crashed into the ground, recovering and pulling himself to his feet. But Geiz was all ready back to form, rushing towards his weapon.

Nobunaga frowned and pulled out his pistol again.

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

That's why you're running, running, running!

Geiz panted as he moved, running as fast as he could. Bobbing and weaving in bursts of super speed. jumping, diving and rolling to dodge every blast. Eventually, he managed to jump... and he grabbed his weapon!

Running for the future!

Geiz gripped the JaHalberd tightly, swapping the Geiz mask's position from the black shaft onto the Zax's port

GUARDIAN FINISH TIME!

Red and gold energy pulsed around Geiz's weapon, almost looking like musical beats, as Geiz pulled himself to his feet.

Pushing on towards all your dreams!

GEIZ KYUUSEISHOU ZAKURI CUTTING!

"HA!" Geiz called as he slashed his weapon a few times. Large waves of red and gold energy flew through the air, forming the hiragana writing for 'saviour' before they impacted ANeo Geiz in the chest

We'll see you flying high just like a...

BOOM!

HERO!

Nobunaga fell to his knees, his suit sparking as he snarled.

"H-How?" He whispered, panting heavily as he felt his form deteriorating. "This power...How did you?"

"Because I refuse to let those people die." Geiz responded "They aren't collateral damage... they are friends and family. Brothers and sisters and mothers and fathers and husbands... and wives... and daughters and... sons..." he looked down at his hand, his fist slowly clenching "They all live... they all matter! And I won't let you throw them away... for your desire for power!"

Although we all have fears hidden deep inside our hearts,

One's we cannot speak for fear they'll dim our spark!

"I am the Guardian of the Future, and I will not let another Overlord take the throne! I have lost too many friends for others to suffer the same!" Geiz roared

Wishes

Come true!

"Then defeat me, young one! MAKE YOUR OWN FUTURE!" He roared back

Even if you can't see your strength like I do!

"I AM GEIZ MYOKOIN! KAMEN RIDER GEIZ!" the hero roared back, his wings coming to life once more as he flew at his foe.

Your song lifted up my will to fight!

Nobunaga raised his pistol and opened fire rapidly

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

The strength of your melody won the night!

Geiz was spinning around the blasts, zigzagging around them and batting a few away as he neared his foe.

Softly,

Your song,

Echoes in the depths of my heart!

"HAAAA!" the two roared as they swung their blades at each other once more. Nobunaga brought it down as a vertical slash, trying to stab into Geiz's back, maybe slash one of his wings.

However, Geiz rolled in the air, letting the blade pass him completely, as he stabbed forwards with the JaHalberd so the Jikan Jaclaw's claw blades stabbed into ANeo Geiz's stomach.

There was a moment of shock... before Geiz's wings became volcanoes of power. He rocketed forwards, his wings more like engines than something used for flight, as he pushed Nobunaga through the grassy field.

Be brave and gimmie, gimmme power, power, power, power!

SMASH!

SMASH!

SMASH!

The two crashed through several trees before ANeo Geiz was able to dig his feet into the ground and stop them. He brought his hand down, smashing the weapon from Geiz's grasp.

Let the strength within you shine!

Geiz stumbled in shock from losing his weapon. ANeo Geiz took this opening.

Nobunaga grabbed Geiz by the throat and squeezed, at the same time slamming his fist into Geiz's mask again and again again. He then released his hold on Geiz's throat and gave him a harsh blow to the side of his head with the pistol he carried.

With Geiz disorientated Nobunaga threw a harsh strike to Geiz's gut, followed by a knee to the chest, slamming his pistol into Geiz's back and finally a powerful uppercut.

Even if you fall, I know you'll rise up and try it all over again!

Geiz gasped as the uppercut hit hard. His helmet shattered as he was knocked back. His body was suspended in the air for a moment, looking up to the clear blue sky... and caught himself. Using his wings and their power he quickly righted himself, at the same time his mask quickly healed via... he guessed magic, as it shone lightly

That's why you're running, running, running!

As Geiz regained himself thanks to his flight, he threw a harsh kick. Nobunaga raised both arms to block it and stumbled back, only to receive another kick from the opposite side. Then he had an elbow to the back, a knee to the back of the head, a punch to the lower ribs and finally a kick to the chest.

Running for the future!

Geiz had the advantage of 360-degree movement, he could literally attack from any direction... but without his weapon, he was forced to close range.

Nobunaga decided that would be his weapon.

Pushing on towards all your dreams!

Geiz rushed forwards for another kick, only for Nobunaga to dodge. As Geiz zoomed past thanks to his momentum, he was hit by a gunshot to his chest

We'll see you flying high just like a...

Geiz went flying back... and was blasted.

Again, and again and again

And again

A barrage of shots, blasting him around the clear blue sky

HERO!

But he refused to give up. He had his arms crossed, taking every blow.

This wasn't just his power, his story.

His life.

He would not let them down!

He focused on all three parts of his power... and he vanished! Nobunaga stumbled forwards in shock, almost dropping his gun...

GEIZ KYUUSEISHOU GIWA GIWA SHOOT!

This ever-changing future,

just waits for you to take hold!

Nobunaga roared in pain as his axe and pistol where destroyed. He turned around and saw Geiz crouched on the ground, shrugging off his own red energy cloak with the Jikan Zax smoking with energy.

"Don't you know...when to give up?" Nobunaga glared.

"No. Never." Geiz answered

"...Then we are related." And he activated his power deep within him.

As it unfolds before us!

The two threw their weapons away, walking towards each other with determination.

It's time to let our fear go!

The winds blew, their powers sparked. The tree's swayed, the ground cracked.

As long as you're by my side,

I know that we'll be alright!

And they roared!

Once again they were trading blows!

Two skilled warriors, trading strikes. Punches, kicks, blocks and counters!

Eventually, they caught a punch form each other, gripping as tightly as they could to try and crush the other's hands.

We will

'Rise... Hisashi... I'll see you soon!' Geiz thought, before slamming his head against Nobunaga's.

"Let's finish this, Belt-San!" Eiji called as he twisted the Ignition Key and pressed the red button atop the shift brace

JACKPOT!

Be the ones to

Come out on top...

Eiji and Minato jumped up, before rocketing down. Masao had his foot covered in water energy, while Eiji was surrounded by a spiralling tornado of golden cards. The two stuck the Weather Dopant and blasted through him

BOOM!

Tonight!

"Succu Bite!" Kivat the 4th called as he bit into the handle of the whip

"Kya! Careful, Bat!" the female voice of the whip snapped

DAI KAIGAN! OMEGA REIGN!

Full Charge!

Kotaro, Masao and Ayami all held their weapons tightly as they sparked with power. They all gave a sudden and harsh slash, together destroying the last of the mooks and the Scissors Lost Smash

Geiz and Nobunaga were apart, both panting and close to falling. But neither let themselves fall.

"This... is the end!" Nobunaga called as he readied his final attack.

AnOtHeR tImE bUrSt!

His fist was alight with dark red energy... and Geiz just caught it.

Let the lights that's within you shine on!

"WHAT?!"

"You asked why I am this strong...it's because it's not just my power... it's my sons too!" Geiz called, throwing Nobunaga's hand away before giving him a harsh palm strike to the chest.

ANeo Geiz gasped as a red shockwave rushed through him... and he couldn't move!

"AND WE WILL BEAT YOU!" he called as he hit his RideWatch's button.

RIDER FINISH PARADOX!

Lightning up tomorrow!

Geiz reached down and gripped his belt... before he unlatched it.

Guiding the way through the dark!

The Future Guardian jumped into the air and twisted his body, getting into the position of a flying side-kick. His clock hand wings spread wide and came to life, acting as engines once more.

Even if you fall, I know you'll rise up and try it all over again!

"HA!" Geiz roared as he rushed forwards thanks to the burst of speed, spinning his belt as he did so.

Nobunaga stumbled as he regained himself... and laughed, holding his hands forwards to catch the attack.

Be brave and gimmie, gimmme power, power, power, power!

Geiz's foot collided with Nobunaga's palms, the red energy filling the sky like a storm. The impact was so hard it seemed to repeat almost four times!

The two grunted and growled, pushing against each other.

Only you can beat the gods!

The two almost seemed even, neither budging as their armours crackled and flickered.

We'll see you flying high just like a...

Suddenly the world warped... and ANeo Geiz looked on in horror

HERO!

Holograms of Kamen Rider Geiz's base form and Kamen Rider Neo Geiz leapt into the air, side by side, and zoomed through the air.

Leave all the despair behind!

Feel your heartbeat thunder loud!

The two flew side by side, their kicking feet merging with Geiz Paradox's. The Force of Geiz's kick suddenly TRIPLED!

With emotions flying high!

I hear your song ringing out!

"W-Well done...Geiz." Nobunaga muttered as he began to loosen his grip while his hand buckled.

Your light guides us through the night!

With a wish we'll win the fight!

"You win."

Geiz's foot finally freed itself from Nobunaga's grip.

What's to come is still untold!

Geiz's foot collided with ANeo Geiz's chest, the hiragana for 'kick' appearing under the two

Crack!

Crack!

Leave all the despair behind!

Feel your heartbeat thunder loud!

Geiz and Neo Geiz fused into Geiz Paradox's form, and his power doubled once again! With one last roar, he pushed past his limits, and through ANeo Geiz's form.

With emotions flying high!

I hear your song ringing out!

GEIZ PARADOX BURST!

Your light guides us through the night!

With a wish we'll win the fight!

Geiz pushed through his ancestor. His feet hit the grassy ground, ripping it apart as he slid across the floor. His tailcoats where flying dramatically... before he came to a stop, his visor shining, as the explosion went off behind him.

KABOOM!

Together we'll sing out the song of hope!

Geiz panted as he had landed firmly on the ground, before rising to his feet.

The other Riders were finishing up with their own villains, as each of the enemies had lost their connection to ANeo Geiz and the Another RideWatch inside of him had shattered.

Nobunaga stood tall... And laughed with a proud smile "Well done."

Geiz panted as his form disappeared as the enemies that surrounded them were destroyed by the other Riders. "You...put up a hell of a fight." Geiz admitted.

"... History went on the right track." Nobunaga nodded guiltily.

"Yeah, it has. And now, you've got to return." Geiz answered, walking close to him.

...

"Here." Geiz added, throwing a chunk of golden rock at him.

"What's this? Gold?" Nobunaga asked as he caught it.

"No, a Gold Quartz." Geiz explained. "Give it to me in the past."

"Give this to you in the past?" Nobunaga asked

"Yeah, I'm going to end up dead and you need to kick my ass if I don't listen." Geiz answered. "So... I've seen you."

"Is...is that a joke?" Nobunaga asked, staring at his descendent.

Geiz just shrugged and smirked back.

"Heh. Fine. And who knows...maybe I'll give you the beating of your life." Nobunaga chuckled as a portal through time appeared.

...

"Oh my god... I've always been a dick..." Geiz blinked in shock

"You're realising that now?" Eiji asked

"Wait, did everyone know?" Geiz asked as he heard that.

"Yeah, it's...kinda your thing, Mr Myokoin." Masao responded

...

Thud!

"OH COME ON!" Geiz yelled, having fallen to his knees


*time skip*

Hisashi was resting in the hospital, having his wounds treated as he couldn't be on active duty for a long while. "Hey, at least it could've been worse." Hisashi admitted, trying to put a brave face on.

"I'm sorry, buddy." Geiz sighed putting the Neo Geiz watch back into his son's hand

"Don't blame yourself, dad. You kicked ass." He smiled back up at his father. "I'm honestly impressed."

"Really?"

"Yeah...I kinda wish I was there with you and not dying." Hisashi joked.

"Well, you're already there, son." An older man's voice spoke as two people walked in...an older Geiz and Rise.

"Wha-?!" Geiz and Rise gasped, turning and looking at their older counterparts in wonder

There, standing before Geiz and Rise were their older selves.

Geiz had his black hair speckled with grey, a small 'dad-beard', wearing a black jacket and red hoes, black combat trousers and boots, small crows feet by his eyes and a smile on his cheeks.

Rise was a super-model, long hair, shimmering eyes, wearing a blue button blouse and black jacket, a long skirt and flat shoes with an ample chest that made both Rise and Geiz look at.

'Oh my... I'm going to be like that?!' Rise thought in shock

'Oh wow. That's my wife!' Both Geiz's thought as they saw Rise. Well, Older Geiz looked at young Rise and present-day Geiz looked at the older Rise.

"What're you staring at?" Older Rise asked as she clocked both Geiz's gazes.

"My wife?" both answered with the technically correct answer.

"...Good answer." Older Rise poked her husband's cheek.

"I...When did those come in?" Rise asked as she saw her older self's chest.

"Pregnancy does wonders." was the answer she received

"Wow." Rise whispered as she looked at them.

"Get used to them, young me. Twenty plus years of wedded bliss." Older Geiz smirked.

"Guys! Please, I'm healing!" their son whined from his bed.

"Oh, my poor baby." Older Rise pouted and went to his side.

"Do I...?" Rise asked nervously, thinking she was going to be an overbearing parent.

"Be awesome? Yes. You do." Older Geiz answered

"I could've told you that." Geiz added making young Rise blush.

"Guys, please. Stop flirting with each other here!" Hisashi groaned.

"Are you dying?" Older Rise asked

"No, he's Hisashi." Both Geiz and his older counterpart answered in unison...the Dad jokes had begun.

"Oh no..." Both Rise's whined

"It begins, young one." Older Geiz smirked.

Geiz just had to chuckle at that. "We better head back to our time then."

"Don't worry, Kotaro will take you there." Hisahsi nodded

"Thanks, we appreciate it." Rise sighed in relief.

"Geiz, a quick word...You look after her. Alright?" Older Geiz warned his younger self.

"Of course I will." Geiz answered.

"Rise, a word from the wise...Geiz is going to mess up at times. But he won't let you down." Older Rise smiled gently.

Rise nodded gently as she took that on board. "Look after him; okay?"

"We've been doing well so far." Older Rise responded


*time skip*

We are back in the past.

We are in a massive stadium, where people were all cheering loudly.

And the music was blaring from the speakers.

Rise was all dolled up and with her arm raised to the cheers of her audience.

"Ushinau mono wa nai!" Rise sang her debut single, the song she is proudest of

"Makushin ni kawaru made!"

She looked out to them, to the cheering crowd... And she couldn't see him. But she was singing to him, with all her heart!

"Kimi o oikakeru!

Jibun shika shinjinai!"

She remembered his smile, his gleaming armour, how kind and courageous he was... This was her balled for him, for her love...

The crowd cheered, clapping along with the music

"Cuz I'M a FUTURE GUARDIAN!" she sang with all her heart, thinking of her Geiz!

"Kibō mo nai mirai nado..." The music turned soft and peaceful as he reached out towards her, towards the crowd.

"Mirai to wa...

Yobenai!"

The song ended peacefully... And everyone cheered

"Thank you everyone, for coming!" Rise called out, waving to the crowd as she left the stage with a smile.

Rise smiled as she left the stage, but as soon as she was out of the public eye... The smile vanished.

She had not seen Geiz for a week, not since they returned from the future. Had... Had the arguments they had then ruined their lives? Was there no going back? She wanted to, she wanted to apologise but...

She sighed, opening her dressing room door slowly... To see the place FILLED with red and pink roses.

She looked like she had entered a flower-filled paradise, something out of a manga. "Wh-what? What is all this?"

The door softly closed as she walked into her room. Admittedly equal parts flattered and scared.

"Sorry if I scared you. But I had to make things perfect." Geiz's voice appeared behind her.

"Geiz?" She gasped as she turned around.

...

And she saw him there, on his knees.

"Geiz. Oh my god." She gasped seeing him there.

"Rise." Geiz gulped nervously as he looked up at her.

He pulled out the box.

"Rise... Will you... Marry me?"

She looked down at Geiz, seeing the golden ring in the small velvet box and how much effort he put into all of this. She felt her heart race a hundred miles a minute as she couldn't believe it. "Yes!" She squeaked, kneeling down and hugged him. "Yes! Yes! A million times yes!" she cheered, kissing him again and again

Geiz embraced his fiancé as she had accepted. No more worries, no more misunderstandings. Geiz was going to dedicate his life to her and their future together.

They were kissing deeply, Geiz reaching down to grab her backside. He held her tightly and picked her up, letting her wrap her arms and legs around him.

He pushed her against her dressing table, showing her all his love.

"H-Hmm~! Wa-wait. The door. Someone might come in." Rise panted as she looked at it.

"I got it." He answered, grabbing a sign.

He grinned as he pulled back and rushed to the door, he threw his shirt off before opening the door. Quick as a whirlwind he slammed the sign onto the door before he slammed it shut and locked it. He turned to look at her, with the passion of a raging fire.

"I-I guess this is where Hisashi is conceived." Rise smirked while unbuttoning her shirt "I think I'm ready for that."

The rest of the concert staff decided to try and ignore that room, as to not hear the moans and grunts and slams that filled the room.

It was the most magical moment of either of their lives... and they knew that they'd happily try to top it in the future.

And they knew the future would look bright.
