Ziden and Takeru were in stunned silence after the new man appeared on the field, fully transformed and ready to fight, though his armor looked bulky. The male soon began his walk to face off with the Katana Gamma.
Full Force [Kamen Rider Kabuto]
" Another Kamen Rider!? How many of you freaks are there!?" Katana asked before dashing right at Kabuto, swinging his blade right down onto him, only for Kabuto to side step and slam his fist right into the Gamma's chest, sending him reeling back before walking forward and throwing more punches into his chest.
Ziden and Takeru were watching this carefully, the poor Gamma was being toyed with, all before they were now being surrounded by those black cloaked Mooks. Soon getting to their feet, looking at the weapons they had as Sanae looked over at them.
" Ziden! You can summon your weapons using those cards on your belt!" Sanae pointed out before yelping and moving to avoid a blade, quickly leaping back throwing watery snakes at the Gamma Commander attacking her, causing it to be sent flying into a nearby building, causing the people within to be startled.
Ziden looked at his belt before seeing the card case, blinking. Where the hell did this thing come from, soon grabbing a card from it and looking at the Salamander Saber, softly focusing magic into it before the card vanished and formed that nice Draconic straight sword, soon spinning it in his hands before slowly slashing down one of the Gamma commander's chest, spraying out black ink or goo, watching them fly backwards.
Meiling and Byakuren were doing rather well together, their kicks and punches were sending their enemies flying into buildings, all before a random Gamma Commander was tackling Meiling into a cafe, breaking the window and a few tables. Quickly grasping her hands together, she slammed her fists down onto his back, causing the creature to groan and explode hard into black mist, more of them coming into the shop.
Miko herself had run into an alleyway, her blade out and creating sharp blasts of light, cutting down many of the Gamma Commanders, soon leaping around and slamming her foot hard into their necks and sending them tumbling down. " Such bizarre beings, its like they do not exist at all."
Youmu and Yuyuko were together, fending off a horde of the Commanders, the blade of the young woman was cleaving through many of them, sliding around and leaping over them to strike at their necks. Yuyuko was sticking to her fans, soon slicing down on someone and causing an explosion of butterflies to come from their bodies while soon getting struck on her leg, causing Ziden to feel the attack. " Sorry!" Yuyuko was quick to fire a barrage of souls right into the Commander's chest, sending him flying back and exploding.
Flandre herself was using her rod and bashing anything that came near her, having the time of her life riding upon the back of one of the Commanders, firing balls of fire at the others, causing them to explode into rings of fire. " Weird, dunno why they do that every time!"
Eirin and Utsuho, the oddest team up possible, was fending off the Gamma with long range attacks, arrows and balls of energy right into their chests, Okuu seemed to be having issue, mainly due to her left eye being bandaged up, along with other bits of her after that Zero Incident. But she was handling herself well, being told to not use the more dangerous parts of her powers in the city.
Yorihime was casually cutting through many of the Gamma Commanders with pure ease, her body untouched by them before she leapt and spin in the air, hooking her legs around the neck of one of the Gamma, spinning and forcing him to fall to the ground, with her feet still around his neck, snapping the neck and causing him to vanish into smoke. " Tch, these vermin are not even trouble."
Reimu and Marisa were teaming up once more, the duo using their tricks at their disposal, Reimu knew alot of hand to hand fighting, throwing down heavily with the horde, sending them flying all around. " JEez! These freaks are just like the Zealots! Just always coming out of the wood works!"
" Reimu! These guys are actually fun to take on, ze! Sides, we got these Riders helping us so this is even more exciting!" MArisa said, amped to the maximum before using her broom to smash into the man in front of her, sending him spinning into the air and exploding hard.
Komachi was having fun too, summoning her boat and crashing through several of the enemies just in time to see an odd sight, Magikarp was leaping around and using Flail on many of the enemies around Remilia and Sakuya, failing but refusing to give up. " Tch! What a worthless but Tenacious creature. Atleast its got a never die worthy attitude to the Scarlet Devil Manor."
Sakuya was working with Gardevoir in taking down the enemies, peeking over at Ziden and Takeru dealing with their enemies inside a cafe shop, the duo leaping over tables and punching and kicking any enemy in their way as they made their way to where Katana was, about to witness something entirely new.
Kabuto was now standing before Katana, now touching the horn on his Zector. " Cast off."
" CAST OFF." He flicked the horn right to the left, causing lightning to arc off of his armor before sending the parts exploding right off of him, causing the Katana Gamma to be sent flying into the distance, landing on the cop car. Kabuto was now sporting a more sleek design, red of the chest and those glowing blue eyes, a horn now slowly raising up and fixing itself right between the eyes, giving it the final look. " CHANGE BEETLE."
" His armor, it got shedded off and became that? What is the point of it?" Ziden asked while slapping his own belt on, as Takeru got ready as well. The duo transforming and going to run at Katana, whom was dashing Kabuto in a last ditch attack.
" Humph, Clock up." Tendou smacked his side, hitting a button as everything slowed down to a snails pace for him, everything looking like it was frozen in time.
" Clock up!" Tendou now became a blur, dashing past and slamming into Katana, making the Gamma fly up into the air with every impact, the poor Gamma being taken for a Ride before he stopped, his back turned to the creature slowly falling down. His thumb soon presses the three buttons on the belt. " 1. 2. 3."
Kabuto soon tilts the horn of his belt to the right before turning it right back, lightning arcing from his horn and traveling down his leg. " Rider Kick." Soon, Spinning in a full circle, he slammed his foot into the Gamma's chest, causing him to explode on impact, the creature screaming as the Clock up ended, leaving the twin riders shocked as to what happened.
" What was that?" Sakuya wondered, her sharp eyes felt something odd but it was not time manipulation, so what was it?
Kabuto was about to detransform before the trio was hit hard against the chest and back with sharp cards, sent flying against the wall. " Aahhhahahah, so these are the Annoying Kamen Riders who are causing me so much trouble in these lands!" The white armored man began to walk forward, his face was visible through his helmet and he carried a rapier on his hip.
Tendou was the first one to get to his feet. " You, you're General Shadow, Leader of the Delza Army. Why are you here?"
" Why am I here? Is it not obvious? I am the Leader of the Shocker Army Branch in this world. I am he who orders all Shocker Troops to take action and fight this land to bring it under our rule!" shadow spoke simply, his hand reaching into the sky and clenching it with righteous fury.
" Tch, so this is the big bad, if we take him down now, this will all end!" Ziden said before grabbing onto his blade and charging right at the man, his blade carrying flames along it.
" Hah, and you would think a Legendary Hero would know better than to charge into battle without knowing your opponent!" Shadow simply blocked his blade with his own, soon overpowering Ziden in seconds before kicking him square in the chest, not only sending out sparks but sending the male flying backwards into a nearby car.
" That was fairly dumb in hindsight Ziden!" Yuyuko yelled before yelping and ducking a blade from one of the Gamma Commanders.
Takeru wasn't gonna sit back either, going in with his own blade, only for Shadow to sidestep and slice hard against his chest multiple times, making sparks fly out from the impacts before swinging upwards, sending Takeru flying upwards and onto the ground. " Hah, so this is the new Kamen Riders, you guys are alot weaker than the usual batch!" Shadow boasted before quickly spinning and catching Tendou with his blade in the stomach, causing sparks to spray out before he lifted the rider and launched him right at the downed Riders.
" Damn, that guy must be real tough." Reimu said under her breath, unable to help their comrades due to being pinned down and unable to use their spellcards in this city.
Ziden, Takeru and Tendou slowly staggered to their feet, their bodies in pain from the attacks they all just took. Soon Shadow held up several cards in his hands before throwing them, unleashing a storm of cards to blast right into the chest of the heroes, causing sparks and explosions to occur around them.
" Gah!" The heroes all flew over to near the front of the cafe, all of their transformations coming undone and their bodies showing heavy bruises and cuts, even blood was leaking from their lips, glaring at the General.
" Hahahah, so this is what you all can do, seems the new power I got from that Scion truly upped what I can do, but now, you three die here." Shadow quickly dashed towards the heroes, only to be intercepted Sakuya and Remilia, their weapons glowing and their eyes glowing bright red, pushing the male back.
Course, all that did was allow him to throw his cards at the duo, allowing Sakuya to dodge each card while Remilia was leaping at the male with his claws out. Shadow smirked under his see-through mask, and quickly thrusts his blade right down her shoulder blade, inches from her heart. Her own eyes widened before forcing herself to explode into bats and fly away, now on the ground and clutching her bleeding shoulder. Sakuya was quick to stop time and rain down knives onto Shadow, only to watch once the timestop ended, he was quick to throw a barrage of cards not only at her knives but at all, causing her legs and arms to be severely sliced up, earning a yell from her.
" This is all you Illusionary Heroes can do? This is pathetic! But I believe I should take this chance and thin out your herd, starting with this vampire!" Shadow leapt over to where Remilia was, causing Flandre to scream out and try and reach her, only to watch as Magikarp splashed right into Shadow's side, sending him rolling from the force. " What?! You worthless fish! I will end you!" General Shadow soon punted the Magikarp hard against a wall, watching the pokemon flop tiredly about from the impact. " Worthless, just like these heroes, you will not amount to anything at all!" Shadow taunted and teased the creature, watching its eye curl down into a glare of anger before an explosion of light came from it.
" What?!"
" What!?"
" Oh, its evolving." Ziden noted while leaning back against the wall, trying to get to his feet before falling.
The fish was slowly morphing from a pathetic form into a terrifying dragon-like form, but something was off, instead of blue scales, brilliant red scales formed as the Gyarados lets out a loud roar before using its tail to send Shadow flying into a building, causing dust and debris to fly up.
" Holy...hell...looks like you...are really befitting to the Scarlet Devil Manor." Remilia said, waiting for her healing to kick in.
Shadow stomped his way out of the building before drawing his blade once more, only to block several gunshots from someone walking onto the scene. Tsukasa was holding his own specialized gun while walking onto the scene. " The Destroyer of Worlds...even you are here to stop us?"
Tsukasa softly placed his gun down while looking at the General whom he has destroyed several times in the past. " Indeed, but I think it would be best if I just sent these kids on their way and let them get moving, no one likes when things drag on for too long." Tsukasa said before slamming an odd buckler onto his thigh and holding up a card. The sound of an engine was roaring before he spoke. " Henshin." He soon flips the card and slides it right down into his transformation device.
" KAMEN RIDE:DECADE." Tsukasa was now watching as many phantom images of his Rider armor was flowing around him before slamming the sides of his device, making the images form onto him, making his armor and several thick, black cards forming and sliding onto his helm, forming his Decade armor.
" Everyone, get moving, me and Tendou can handle things in this city until you guys return." Tsukasa simply placed another card into his belt and began to walk to General Shadow, summoning his blade before clashing with the General. " Get moving." Tsukasa ordered before every went to grab their allies and quickly run, being chased by the Gamma Commanders and escaping into the Route 5, losing them and all of them resting in the open road near a Kindergarden, which looked quite boarded up.
" Damn...that guy was tough." Ziden said while he was being babied by a certain Moon Princess, the group looking at the place next to them, soon resting outside of it since night fall was coming. Reimu was quick to form a barrier around the school and began to sigh.
" General Shadow, he rules the Delza Army and I know he has teamed with Shocker in the past, so I shouldn't be this shocked." Sanae said aloud, looking at Takeru softly rubbing his arm, being a ghost had its benefits, not dying from this stuff was one of them.
" Then I guess, we leave that city for now and head back to it once we clear out the other towns." Kaguya said while looking up at the setting sun, soon nightfall hung overhead.
Remilia was looking up at the Pokemon that evolved giving a soft smile to its new form, such a truly powerful being.
" So the Carp that was the weakest of them all, ended up becoming the mighty dragon? What a wonderful thing." Eirin said while Yorihime nods, watching the Gyarados happily play with its master, much to Remilia's pain.
Trivia:
1. Yes, Remilia has a Red Gyarados, sue me.
2. General Shadow hails from Kamen Rider Stronger and one of the Main Villains of this story.
3. Eirin directly referenced the story of where a Carp leapt up a waterfall and became a mighty dragon.
