We do not own Koihime Musou or Kamen Rider Gaim. They belong to their respective creators. We just thought this idea would be fun and decided to give it a try. If you like it, then that's great. If you don't, then we tried. Anyway, come along and let's see what you think.
When Nagata woke up, he couldn't help but feel that something was off. It felt as if he had woken up from a long and vivid dream. It was like a whole other life but he could not recall any of the details.
He looked around his bedroom. His Kamen Rider posters were up on the wall and the figures he collected stood on his shelf with his DVD collection. In fact, his bedroom was a dedicated shrine to his love of the franchise.
Although, for some strange reason, he felt like he had not been here in a long time, like years.
Weird.
He got out of bed, took a shower and got dressed before he went downstairs to get started on his chores before they opened the restaurant. His parents were getting things ready in the kitchen so he was left alone to mop the floor.
In the middle of mopping the dining area, he heard the bell above their door rings, signalling that there were customers. It was still too early for them to be open and their regular customers knew this.
"Oh, sorry. We're not open..." Nagata's words got caught in his throat. He dropped his mop, mouth agape in shock when he saw them standing in the doorway.
"Hello, Nagata-sama."
Tears of joy welled up in Nagata's eyes as memories of another lifetime came flooding back.
"Aisha, Rinrin, Sei, Sui, Touka, Shuri, Enya, Ren."
He couldn't help himself as he ran to hug them all.
"You're all here. You're really here."
Sangokuden Armored War Gods Saga:
Written By: Kamen Rider Chrome
Beta Reader/Editor: Busterleader92 & Kamen Rider Goji
Epilogue: New World, New Lives
Nagata sighed as he stepped into the museum's Three Kingdoms exhibit. He walked over to where the infamous mirror had been displayed, the one Saji had attempted to steal before the others interfered or got caught in the chaos.
Everything had begun here. It was strange, being in the right place at the right time springboarded an almost surreal adventure. Still, the adventure had been real and it seemed history agreed. Instead of the mirror, an aged copy of the Celestial Chronicles was on display. It was not the one written by Dai Shi but a revised edition penned by Shokatsuryou Komei. Photos of it were spread out detailing the lives, appearances, and the eventual victory of the Armored War Gods. There were even pages with faded ink paintings detailing all of them.
It was why Kamen Rider Gaim, the series not Nagata, was now believed to have been inspired by mythology.
He had questions about how he was back in his world with the Shoku Warriors so he had gone to the one person who could give him answers.
When he saw the girls, his memories instantly returned and the first thing he did was hug them all.
Sei was the same as always as her hands grabbed his butt when they hugged.
After his reunion with the girls, Nagata was surprised to discover that they all went to the same school as him, just like in his coma dream. Aisha, Touka, Sui and Sei were 3rd years like him and his classmates, Ren and Enya were his 2nd-year underclassmen, while both Shuri and Rinrin were 1st years.
As they entered the school grounds together, he spotted Tenmaru-sensei and decided to get some answers from her.
"I'll catch you in class later," Nagata said to them as he approached his history teacher. "Tenmaru-sensei!"
"Oh, good morning, Nagata-kun," Tenmaru-sensei greeted.
"What's going on, Sensei?" Nagata asked. He remembered what happened the last time they had seen each other, about his story ending before he woke up earlier.
"It's simple, really. After your story ended, that world reset. However, you did not wish to be separated from the ones you love. So, your strong desire reincarnated them into this world," Tenmaru-sensei explained.
"So, everyone from that world has been brought here and given different lives?" Nagata questioned. "All of them?"
"Everyone who has lived and died since you first ended up in that world," Tenmaru-sensei confirmed.
"That means Kara-chan..."
"Yes, she's alive."
"So, what about their memories?"
"Their memories of that world are like memories of another life. They are more like an echo, even if they are vivid and real. They also possess memories of their new lives here. No need to worry about it, though. Their lives are better now, thanks to you. This is the start of a new chapter in your lives, Nagata-kun. I suggest you enjoy it."
"Who are you, Sensei?" Nagata wondered. There was no way she was a normal human being. He could write off her appearance when he had that coma dream but not their conversation after Dai Shi was defeated.
"I'm just a teacher who writes online as a hobby. You better get going. You don't want to be late for class."
"Almost seems surreal, doesn't it, Nagata?" a familiar voice spoke up. Nagata perked up and turned, seeing Masataka and Mitsuki approaching.
"Yeah," Nagata nodded. He could have asked if they remembered the Three Kingdoms, but the look in their eyes seemed to convey it all.
"Kinda stinks that they call it all a myth," Mitsuki commented, reading some of the notes on display. "The only historical significance to those eggheads is that Komei wrote it."
"Well, would anyone believe stories of 'fruits of heaven' and 'Armored War Gods'?" asked Masataka.
"Ask me that before that stupid trip and I'd have laughed at you," Mitsuki shrugged. "Now? I'd say anything's possible."
"True enough," Nagata chuckled. "So, everyone came through too?"
"Everyone," Masataka confirmed with a smile. "Minmei's now my maid and giving me all sorts of signals."
"Masataka-sama. Masataka-sama, it's time to get up." Masataka did not want to get up. He just wanted to sleep in and bury himself into his comfortable bed. "Masataka-sama, wake up, it's time for school."
Reluctantly, Masataka woke up as he opened his eyes and sat up in bed. He yawned and rubbed his eyes. When his vision cleared, he found himself looking at his maid, Minmei.
"Minmei..." Masataka said, still half-asleep.
"Good morning, Masataka-sama." Minmei smiled as she leaned in before giving him a good morning kiss on the lips. Now that woke Masataka up completely as his eyes opened fully. She pulled away, smiling impishly.
"Min-Min-Minmei!" Masataka stammered, flushed.
"You should get ready quickly. I've already prepared breakfast," Minmei winked before she left his room to go wake up his little brother, Minato.
"...The Hell?"
"Sheren-sama and Meirin are back together, although she is now a hopeless NEET otaku. We had to stage an intervention."
"OK, let's do this," Meirin said as she stood outside the apartment with Renfa, Shaoren, Minato and Masataka. They were going to stage an intervention for Sheren who had become a NEET.
"Hope she did not become a hoarder or a crazy cat lady," Minato remarked.
"Minato, that's rude," Meirin scolded.
"Somebody had to say it. Let me remind you that I'm allergic to cats."
"Look, she's just a hikikomori and a NEET. She does not own any cats so you should be fine," Masataka told his brother.
"Not taking any chances," Minato said as he put on a surgical mask and rubber gloves. "I could go back to the car to get the hazmat suits if you want."
"Why do you even have hazmat suits?" Renfa asked.
"Let's just go in," Masataka interrupted. "OK, on the count of three, we go in. One-"
"THREE!" Minato yelled, skipping '2' as he threw the door open and barged right in with the rest of their group.
"Hey, wait!" Masataka scrambled after them.
It was much worse than they thought. Trash bags littered the apartment and Sheren was sitting in front of her TV with a controller while a game played on screen. She did not notice their entry as she had headphones on. Her hair was disheveled, she had wrappers and empty snack bags scattered around her, empty cans of Red Bull and she looked like she had not slept for days.
Then there was the smell. Minato was glad his mask had a filter. He saw the TV cable and after wading through trash bags, he grabbed it and yanked it out of the power socket. The TV instantly shut off as the screen went blank.
"MY GAME!" Sheren shouted as she removed her headphones. She then saw Minato holding the power cable as it dangled from his hand.
"Sorry, Sempai, but this is for your own good," Minato said as the rest joined him. "It's time for your intervention and a bath."
"How about we get this place cleaned up first?" Meirin suggested as she pinched her nose. How could the woman she looked up to so fall so low and let herself go like this?
"We'll give Onee-sama her bath then," Renfa volunteered. "C'mon, Shaoren."
Masataka scowled slightly when Mitsuki snorted.
"Her sisters go to school with me and Minato," Masataka finished
"Still with Sonken?" asked Nagata.
"Stronger than ever," Masataka grinned. "Although her Sheren-sama did want to grill me. She actually left her room for that."
"What about the twins?" asked Nagata.
"Part of the Drama Club along with Non and Rian," Masataka answered. "Although Non's showing her dark side more with half the plays she writes being somewhat explicit."
The Drama Club was doing rehearsals. Rian, the Club President, was the director of the play while Non, the Vice-President and scriptwriter stood beside her.
"OK, let's be clear that I have second thoughts about some of these scenes," Natsu said as he held up the script.
"It's fine, Nii-san," Fuyu said. "It's just a scene of us hugging."
"Fuyu, you do realize this is a 'boys love' scene your girlfriend came up with, right?" Natsu deadpanned.
"Just do it!" Non encouraged. "And make the butt grabbing look convincing!"
More snorts came from his friends, making Masataka sigh.
"Anyway, did anyone learn what happened to Haru?" Masataka asked.
"On the road to professional boxing," Nagata smiled. "Not surprising, but now he's got a rich fiancee and her family to sponsor him and give him the help he needs to get out of street fighting."
Haru struck his opponent in the chest and knocked him down. The referee started to count as his opponent lay on the ground.
"...5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!" The bell rang, ending the match. The referee raised Haru's arm. "Your new champion, Haru Hattori!"
"HARU-SAMA!" Reiha cheered from her seat in her luxury box in the arena. Oh, she just loved watching her beloved fiancé in action. She was with her cousin Mii, and their friends Nanano, Iishe and Toshi.
"He did it! Haru-niisama won!" Mii cheered happily.
Haru held the microphone.
"I'd like to thank everyone here for their support, especially the support of my friends and fiancée!" Haru winked at the camera. "I only got this far with them. AND REIHA-CHAN! I LOVE YOU!"
"I LOVE YOU TOO, HARU-SAMA!"
"How do you even know that?" Masataka asked.
"We got in touch on Facebook," Nagata shrugged. "Way handier than listening to agents or scouts. I also got in touch with Marcus and he seems to be doing well for himself."
"Tres magnifique!" Marcus praised the Chou Sisters as they finished their latest rehearsal. Their bodyguard, Shia, stood nearby, arms crossed and ready to handle any fans who did not understand personal space.
"Oh, you're always so sweet, Marcus-san," Tenho smiled. "I mean 'Manager-san'."
"But it is the truth, my dear," Marcus smiled. "Oh, you will do great on the show tonight!"
"But you can't forget, our studio is going to be having auditions for new idols," Choho reminded.
"Yes, that is important," Renho reminded as she adjusted her glasses.
"Oui, oui, I won't forget. I've already put it online. Soon, crowds of girls will be coming to audition so they may become famous idols just like you! Oh, I cannot wait!"
"Amen," Mitsuki agreed. "So what about your number two?"
"Apparently, Iori nearly caused a scandal after he got caught in the act with Shion who was his school's nurse at the time," Nagata flushed slightly. "His parents raised a stink about it and he nearly got disowned."
"But then he asked us for help and we pulled some strings," Masataka nodded. "Nagata's godmother was more than happy to lend a hand for her precious godson."
"Look at you, pulling strings behind the scenes," Mitsuki teased Nagata.
"I learned some tricks. Sue me," Nagata shrugged. "Anyway, how's Karin doing? Still seeing both Shunran and Shuran, I assume."
"They decided to share me. Enough said," Mitsuki shrugged. "Got me a little girl to look after now. Karin's my kid sister and she's set her sights on conquering the entertainment industry. Our parents support her and Keifa's her devoted fangirl-slave as always."
In the Music Room, Karin just finished her own private performance for her friends, with music provided by her big brother Mitsuki on his electric guitar. They received a round of applause.
"Thank you," Karin smirked.
"YEAAAHHHH!" Keifa cheered. "TAKE ME NOW, KARIN-SAMA!"
"Keep your panties on, Keifa!" Shuran scolded.
"Just let it go, Shuran. You know how she gets," Shunran sighed. "But I agree that was a wonderful performance."
"Yes, but it's still not enough. I need to be better so I may become an idol and take over the entertainment industry!" Karin declared.
"AND I SHALL SUPPORT YOU!" Keifa went and hugged Karin's leg.
"Seriously, stop drooling," Shuran tried to pull the overly amorous girl away as Karin just sighed.
"If you do get into show business, you're going to have to deal with crazy fans like these," Mitsuki informed his sister.
"Hey, if the Chou Sisters can handle it, then so can I," boasted Karin. "But I would still like to have you by my side, Ani-chan."
"Of course," Mitsuki smiled. "I'll always be at your side, Loli. So, do you want to take 5 or keep going?"
"Encore! I want an encore!" Keifa cheered.
Karin smiled. She aimed to become an idol and the big audition was in two weeks. Her parents supported her and so did her brother.
Mitsuki also had a dream. He wanted to be a cop.
"Actually, Shunran and I need to go. Katsumi needs to remember she has parents. Then I need to go to my job."
"Some things never change. Sousou seeks to conquer something and Juniku follows her like a puppy," Masataka shook his head. "Oh, how about you, Nagata? How's the happy harem life treating you?"
"Uh…?" Nagata blinked.
"Yeah, don't keep us in suspense," Mitsuki grinned. "You had, how many, five, six, seven lovers before we got back? That had to be awkward to explain to your mom."
"Ahh...well...that is to say…" Nagata began.
"Spill the dirt, Oda. I know it's good when you sputter like that," Mitsuki pressed.
"Well...uh...officially I'm with Aisha," Nagata answered. "Sei and Ren seem all for picking up where we left off...and aren't shy in asking or trying to seduce me.". Sei could pick some of the worst times to try and get 'harem mode re-engaged' and Ren would just ask now and then, but when people overheard, they would give him weird looks.
Some of the local lotharios were starting to ask him for tips or contemplating murder.
"What about Sui and Touka?" Masataka asked.
"Sui is always embarrassed about it, but her siblings seem all for us hooking up again," Nagata rubbed the back of his neck. "Touka's all for it, but she wants to wait until we can all live together again...and she's making all the plans for it too."
"Oh, how awful," Mitsuki said sarcastically. "All those hot babes wanting to get into your pants. Such a terrible thing. At least I had the sense to stop at two."
"Weren't you sleeping with your lieutenants too?"
"Hey, I slept with them to reward them for doing a great job."
"You still slept with them. That makes them your harem."
"Shut up, you man-whore."
"I'm the most sensible one who remembered I only need one woman in my life," Masataka retorted. "Don't lump me in with degenerates like you two."
"That maid of yours will eventually wear you down," Mitsuki deadpanned. "Trust me, my dad and I see enough pornos."
"So it's hereditary then?" Masataka quipped.
"OI!"
Nagata laughed seeing the two about to argue. It was really a strange feeling for him. Before that day in the museum, he had never even known them and if Saji hadn't tried to nab the mirror, he never would have met them. Now, here he was, joking around with them rather uncouthly and just laughing about it like old friends.
They had known each other for a long time and been through a lot together. Outsiders had no idea about the adventure that they had experienced which had forged their bonds. Not just with each other, but also their circle of friends.
Speaking of…
"Nagata-sama," a welcome voice spoke up. Nagata turned and saw Aisha walking into the exhibit with Rinrin, looking as splendid in modern clothes as she did in the Three Kingdoms. Aisha seemed to have a natural eye for fashion which made her even lovelier, even if her hair drew attention first like always.
"Invited some friends?" Masataka asked Nagata.
"Sure did," Nagata grinned. "I figured even if they know about where we came from, they haven't really seen where it all began."
"Is that so?" Mitsuki tucked his hands in his pockets.
"Great minds think alike it seems," Masataka adjusted his glasses.
As if waiting for that cue, the close friends and family-in-all-but-blood of the former Armored War Gods entered. They milled about the room, talking to each other and laughing over something or other. Many drifted towards the displays which included tales of their past lifetimes even if some of the information was inaccurate.
Karin fumed over being mistaken for a man, especially a tall one with a ridiculous moustache. Shunran touched her now restored eye as she read about the past that Mitsuki had changed. She hugged him tightly, getting a kiss on her temple.
Sheren sighed, seeing how her end came too close as well but was happy that she could be with her lover in this world without worry. Still, she felt like she had to compete with Minato for Meirin's attention now. Shaoren whined at the fact that there was so little information about her that she was sometimes considered a myth.
Enya was still as close to Touka as they had been in their past lives. Whenever they got together, Enya would never leave Touka's side. Of course, it wasn't hard to miss the adoration in her eyes...or the jealousy when Nagata would come around.
Many of the former Shoku Warriors laughed and chuckled over what some of the displays said about them. It really made them wonder how history could get their appearances and genders wrong, especially with how outlandishly some of them had been dressed.
Reiha threw her own fit as to why history seemed so focused on the three major kingdoms when she was so much more dazzling than they were. Yue, on the other hand, got a little upset at what history remembered her for, but Hideyoshi was there to make her feel better.
Kenshin and Hideyoshi were reunited too and they could not be happier. Now, they were part of a club with Yue, Miyabi and Ei.
"Kenshin, for the last time, you cannot use your Charm and Charisma to seduce the harpy into sleeping with you!" Hideyoshi scolded.
"Why the hell not!?" Kenshin demanded.
"Because it's not that kind of game! It's not an R-18 game! We agreed there would be no sex in this game and I'm the GM so my word is the law!"
"You know, if I were GM, I'd let you guys do whatever you want," Kenshin grumbled.
Hideyoshi facepalmed. He was having a tabletop RPG session with his friends Kenshin, Yue, Ei and Miyabi. They were all members of the same Gaming Club. So far, they had gotten to the nest of the harpy and Kenshin suggested his character would seduce her.
"Now, hold on, Hideyoshi," said Miyabi. "I want to see where this goes."
"You would," Ei huffed as she rolled her eyes.
"Yue-hime, come on, talk some sense into him," Hideyoshi begged.
"Actually, it's a creative way to deal with a female monster. I think it should be allowed," Yue said with a sheepish look. "Sorry."
"You heard her," Kenshin grinned. "So, can I roll?"
"Fine, roll your dice, dammit," Hideyoshi begrudgingly allowed.
"Alright! C'mon, get me laid, baby!"
As everyone milled about and looked at the exhibits, Nagata was seated on a bench with Aisha leaning against him.
"So this is where it all began?" she asked.
"Right in this room," Nagata nodded. "I saw Saji grab the mirror and start running. He jumped by one of us after another before Akechi tackled him and broke it. That's when the story began."
"Hm," Aisha smiled. "It indeed was a grand story. Worthy of the legend they remember now."
"Yeah, a shame it's considered a myth though," Nagata sighed, but Aisha merely held his hand tighter.
"We know it is true and that is enough," the former bandit-hunter smiled. "And now, we have peace. The era of war ended, the prophecy came true and now we live in a new world thanks to you." She looked at him with that warm adoration she always showed him with. "Did I not say you were the Messenger of Heaven, the one who would bring peace to the land?"
"You did, even if I didn't believe it," Nagata nodded. "Took us a few years, but we did it. Though, it was Touka who saved the day in the end."
"How's your cousin?" Aisha asked.
"Kara-chan finally stood up to Uncle and broke free from his grip," Nagata answered. He was surprised when he got a text from her. While she shared the news, she stated that she remembered everything, including her death and her time as a ghost. "She's contesting him for leadership of the Oda clan now on the grounds of his dishonorable actions in raising her and some of his past decisions. I didn't know she had that much dirt on him."
"But seriously, to think that most of her problems came from how she was being raised," Aisha said, an exasperated look on her face. "If she had been raised properly, she would've been a better person." She had just recently found out about the ongoings in the Main Oda household, and the things Karasu had to endure to become the perfect clan head in her father's eyes. Her feelings toward Nagata's cousin were complicated, to put it politely, as her actions had not reflected well on her but learning about her spartan upbringing and other incidents that she should have gotten help for had shed some light on her behavior.
"At least she's got a second chance. She at least deserves that," Nagata replied.
Honestly, Aisha wasn't sure if she could ever forgive Karasu for her actions but she could at least try to make peace with her and give her a second chance too, for Nagata's sake. Karasu had sacrificed her life for him and had shown a willingness to change. Now, she had a chance to become better.
"Hey, everyone," Iori greeted as he came with his family. Shion had little Yomi in a stroller while Riri held his hand.
"Hey Iori," Nagata waved as they approached. He made a funny face for Yomi who burbled happily at the sight. "How are things?"
"Great since we got into our new house," Iori replied, sitting down while Riri claimed his lap. "Nii-san's been helping us out. Your godmother really did us a favor by hiring Shion while I finished school."
"Well, Aunt Weiss is someone who firmly believes that everyone deserves to make their own decisions," Nagata shrugged. "I spun the story and Masataka backed me up. She didn't approve of a lot of things, but meeting you two cemented it for her."
"Ah, I'm never ashamed to show my love for my husband," Shion tittered, glowing like a newlywed. "Now if only so many people would stop gaping when I show it."
"Maybe if you didn't grope and kiss me at the same time in public," Iori commented.
"Mou, what's the world coming to if a loving wife can't innocently hug and kiss her adoring husband in public," Shion pouted. She wasn't fooling anyone as they all knew she had a perverted streak equal to Sei. Her 'innocent' public displays of affection could be observed as lewd and indecent by others.
"How is your big brother anyway?" Nagata asked.
"My parents nearly had a heart attack when he came back from his trip with a 'savage' wife and adopted four little girls," Iori answered.
Fate had a really creative mind when it brought everyone into the modern age. Ichiro, surprisingly, ended up getting stranded on a tropical island somewhere. When search and rescue finally found him, he came back with a bombshell of a redhead as his wife and four small girls who saw him as a big brother/father figure.
Needless to say, Iori and Ichiro's parents were not pleased when their golden child had married an uncivilised savage. Somehow, Ichiro spun it so Shamoke became a minor celebrity in her own right, stylish and trend-setting in her actions, even if she didn't always get why things were done in a certain way. She certainly bucked many traditions she didn't see the point of, although she always respected religious and/or spiritual ones, earning her more praise. Her status had also made her a role model since she was a strong and confident woman. So despite their disapproval, the Tokugawas had to lump it and play nice since Shamoke was proving to do wonders for their family image.
Working together, Iori and Ichiro were doing wonders for the family name, even if their parents did not approve of their decisions.
Things got a little wilder when Marcus and Shia showed up with the Chou Sisters in disguise, but no one minded.
Nagata worried slightly that their large gathering might get kicked out by museum staff, but he decided to just roll with it and enjoy being around the people who helped him grow and become the man he was now. They had all taken the same path as they united kingdoms, fought evil, fell in love, and changed the world, creating the saga of the Armored War Gods and the Lovely Peerless Warrior Princesses.
"Hey, Onii-chan! Tell us the story!" Rinrin suddenly interrupted Nagata's introspection by jumping into his lap.
"Oof!" Nagata huffed as she landed on his lap.
"You said you'd tell us the story when we got here!"
"Rinrin, you can't just jump at people like that," Aisha scolded her little sister.
"But I wanna hear the story," Rinrin pouted.
"Can I hear the story too?" Riri asked excitedly.
"What better place to tell it?" Iori grinned.
"I'd like to hear it as well," Shuri wiggled into the group.
"Oh, in all the salacious details?" Sei's voice cooed, suddenly coming behind Nagata and pressing her breasts into the back of his head. "Sui, you can hear the retelling of how Nagata-sama conquered us."
"D-d-don't say it that way!" Sui stuttered, her face bright red.
"I want to hear it too!" Touka called, quickly snatching up Nagata's free arm and holding it tightly to her chest. "I want to know everything you all did before we met!"
"Well…" Nagata chuckled but stopped when Ren took a seat at his feet, looking up to him. "Ren?"
"Ah...a good story," she spoke softly.
The words of stories and the like drew the attention of the others and they gravitated towards Nagata. Soon requests came from some of them to hear their parts in the story. The other former Armored War Gods began to chuckle as the younger or more excitable members began getting inquisitive about the story.
"You're stuck on storytelling duty now, Oda," Mitsuki crossed his arms. "Make it good."
"Do try not to embellish the truth, will you, Nagata-kun?" Masataka requested.
"Try to keep it clean for the kids' sake too," Iori laughed, knowing how tough that would be.
"Make sure all my fights are told right!" Haru called.
"And my tres magnifique debut!" Marcus added.
"And our style!" Natsu and Fuyu agreed.
"Okay, okay," Nagata held up his hands in surrender. He adjusted Riri in his lap and thought back to where it all began, "Well, the saga really begins here in this very room, with an exhibit about the history of the Three Kingdoms. I was here for a field trip when I spotted someone dressed all in white suddenly took a mirror from a display and start running…"
Nagata could never forget the trauma, all the war and death, but with everyone he lost back in his life, it made things easier. Somehow, that lifetime was distant and separate from the one he had now which made it easier to tell. Not that he'd detailed the worst spots since little ears were listening.
Their saga had come to a close, but no one said it couldn't be retold so that the lessons wouldn't be forgotten.
SANGOKUDEN ARMORED WAR GODS SAGA
THE END
KRC: So this is THE END of the Armored War Gods Saga. It's been a very long time, years in fact since I started this project with Ten-Faced Paladin. Since then, this story has dragged on and I can't blame anyone but myself. I've lost a lot of readers but I'd like to thank those who stayed up until the end. It's been fun but it's time to give this story a sendoff so I can move on to other projects. Thank you for staying loyal. Also thanks to my friends, Busterleader92 and Kamen Rider Goji for editing. In the future, I do plan to make a rewrite of this whole fic but it won't be for another few years. Hopefully, with a rewrite, I can fix the issues this fic has. The main thing is that it dragged on longer than it should have. Another thing is to fix characterization. Well, hoping to see you all soon when I start my next big project.
BL92: And now the story has officially come to a close. Chrome and Paladin did a great job on creating this project and I am honored to edit the story during S3 to the end. Sure there's a lot of revisions and some ideas got scrapped, but at least some people enjoyed the story until the end. And like Rosario + Kiva, it's time to say goodbye to the main story. I'm gonna miss it, but the show must go on. To all readers who enjoyed the story, we thank you for your support and staying loyal to it until the end. And who knows, maybe, and it's a big 'what if', Chrome will make the AWG special and movie if he has time for it.
