Kamen Rider Zi-O Ghost Armor stood in front of Another Ghost who remained motionless, staring at him. The tension between them reigned in the street, the few people present in the buildings remained hidden and watched them to know if this hero whose transformation they did not see, too busy barricading their door, was going to win the confrontation.
Then suddenly, Zi-O and Another Ghost were sprinting, each in the direction of the other, initiating the fight.
One of the witnesses of the fight decided to film the fight while broadcasting it live on the Ladyblog recently dedicated to Kamen Rider so that people could see this confrontation.
At the same time in the college. Everyone could only stand by and wait. Juleka's mother was worried about her daughter. So was everyone present, even Chloe who was aware of the gravity of the situation.
Lila, on the other hand, was only feigning concern for Juleka. She was just worried about Adrien, and was happy about what happened to Washio.
No one dared to speak up, until Alya got up and went to the classroom computer and turned on the projector.
"What are you doing Alya?" Ms. Bustier asked.
"Someone is broadcasting a live fight between a never seen Kamen Rider and Washio. Given what we saw, this new Rider must be Adrien, so we'll have less to worry about." Answered Alya as she went to the web page broadcasting the fight.
Everyone could now watch the fight, and Gabriel was more than surprised. Adrien as Zi-O was able to stand up to Washio by using his fencing courts and the sword of his rider identity to put him down.
However, Another Ghost didn't let himself go. He wrapped one of his arms around the one holding the weapon and gave several powerful blows on his rib cage before he freed himself and moved away to catch his breath.
"Get a grip, Washio!" Zi-O shouted, hoping his friend could act despite what was happening to him.
"He won't listen to you." Said a voice seemingly coming from all directions.
"Who's there?!" Zi-O asked, looking around as Another Ghost stood still.
"Use this. It will help you stand up to him." Said the voice as a pink and black Ridewatch landed in front of him.
This one was different from the others, it had a compartment that looked like it could hold a third Ridewatch.
And looking in the direction from which it seemed to come, he saw only a kind of translucent gray rectangle that disappeared.
"I hope it's not a trap. But I don't have a choice." Said Zi-O as she pressed the button on the Ridewatch.
D-D-D-Decade!
He removed the Ghost Ridewatch and placed it in this new Ridewatch.
He then placed it in the Ziku Driver.
Final Form Time! Gho-Gho-Gho-Ghost!
The armor changed then, making appear some golden frame with image of helmet in the leg and in the arm, a big piece of armor with a black bar displaying "Ghost" in multicolored katakana, his helmet was also different. It was more imposing and before a black frame on the face displaying a helmet with golden eyes.
At that moment a symbol in the shape of an eye appeared behind Another Ghost.
Instinctively, Zi-O pressed the buttons of the Decade Ridewatch.
Gho-Gho-Gho-Ghost! Final Attack Time Break!
The same symbol appears behind him in the eyes.
Everyone in the room at the school was hoping for a happy ending. Of all those watching on the screen, Gabriel and Juleka's mother were the most worried, not knowing who would win and what would happen next.
The Kamen Rider and the Another Rider jumped high while making a diving kick towards each other. When the two came into contact, they hung in the air as a strange wave of energy emanated from them. This ended when Zi-O quickly continued on his way passing through Another Ghost making him explode as he hit the ground.
Washio returned to normal and eventually fell, the Another Ghost Ridewatch, falling to the ground and shattering leaving the orb he had taken from Juleka back in his body.
"You're okay." Said Zi-O as he approached Washio, helping him up.
"Yes... thank you." Washio replied before entering a groan from Juleka. "Oh no, Juleka." He said as he rushed towards her.
She finally opened her eyes to see Washio's face with a worried expression.
"Are you okay?" He asked her.
"I... I think so." She replied trying to understand what happened.
"I'm glad. I was really afraid of what might have happened to you because of me." Said Washio helping her to get up.
"What do we do now?" Zi-O asked the more experienced Rider.
"We're going back to the college. The others must be worried." Washio replied.
They did so and once they returned to the classroom, Zi-O removed the Ridewatch from the Ziku-Driver and returned the belt and Ridewatch to his friend who noticed the Decade Ridewatch.
"Who gave it to you?" He asked.
"I don't know. It disappeared before I could see it." Adrien replied.
"I see." Washio said before walking over to Juleka's mother who was hugging her daughter, happy that she was safe. "I beg your pardon for what happened to your daughter." He apologized while bowing.
"It... it's nothing. The important thing is that she got through it." Said Mrs. Couffaine.
"Excuse me." Said Gabriel now behind Washio who turned to face him. "Why did you give these objects to Adrien?" He asked.
"Because I trust him." Answered Washio as he turned his gaze to Adrien. "Your son is a good person Mr. Agreste. And he proved it by going to fight against me to save a classmate and bring me back to normal." He said before returning to his seat.
The day resumed and once it ended, Marinette isolated Washio to discuss.
"Why did you turn in front of everyone? Do you realize that you are now a potential target of the Hawk Moth if he finds out who you are?" She asked worriedly.
"I don't care if he knows who I am. I had to protect people, and that's what I did. I keep my identity a secret so I don't get harassed by reporters, other than that I don't care. They don't know I'm Woz anyway." Answered Washio. "And unlike you and Cat Noir, I have nothing to lose in this time, and in this world." He said.
"What are you talking about?" Marinette asked about her friend's latest statement.
"You'll understand when the time comes." He said with an amused smile before going to his Time Mazine to place the Ridewatches, including the one from Decade that wasn't there before.
"You took a big risk with this plan." Said Wrath as he emerged from a reflection.
"I know, but it was necessary to be sure if he was there. "Said Washio looking at the Decade Ridewatch.
"That's impossible and you know it, he's dead." Said Wrath.
"He's already come back to the once. There's nothing stopping him from doing it again." Said Washio while taking out the Woz Miridewatch. "We have already experienced dead people who are still alive." He said.
Flashback
Washio faced Kamen Rider Woz Futuring Quiz.
Washio wore the same outfit as when he arrived in Paris and when he was Kamen Rider Woz without being transformed.
The latter fought by asking Washio different questions but the questions turned against him. In desperation, he changed to normal Kamen Rider Woz and took out his Future Note before writing something on it. And when he finished writing and Washio understood that he prepared a way to thwart his plan, he froze Woz in time.
He took out a blank Ridewatch and approached Woz, whose three Miridewatches glowed with the color of their rider before they returned to their blank Miridewatch state.
Washio picked up the Future Note to read what his opponent had written on it: "Mirai Rider powers return to their rightful owner."
"Too bad, that puts a severe damper on your plan." Said Woz, still able to speak despite his body being frozen in time.
Washio's expression was one of anger and she tackled the virgin Ridewatch which absorbed Kamen Rider Woz's power making his armor disappear, the BeyonDriver, and the Woz Miridewtch revealing a man wearing the same white outfit as Washio.
"Don't worry Woz. You still have the Another Ridewatch containing the powers of a rider you stole... And I'll find a way for the Mirai Rider. I've already found the perfect world for my plan." Said Washio before leaving with the Ridewatch.
