Kamen Rider Forge Remnant

Craft 21: The Bright Fist.

We are Taiso

"Hurry! This way!" I exclaim gesturing to the injured and staff out of the area. "Single file line! Hurry!" I exclaim, looking around for anyone else I spot an injured Fanus man up against a wall. "Hey! Are you alright!" Running over to the man I help him up and bring over to some soldiers. "We'll take it from here, you need to get out of here." The soldier said, taking the injured man and placing him on a stretcher. "Okay, I'll do that." I said turning to leave, when the injured man grabbed my hand.

Injured man:(bleeding from the head) Th-Thank you.

Taiso:(nods) No problem, you get healed up. Take care of him.

Injured man: Thank you…

Running off to a hidden spot far enough where no one can see me. Is anyone near? Looking around, nobody is anywhere in sight. Okay. Here we go. Taking out my belt I strap it on and take out a mold. "Shield!" Inserting the mold into my belt. "Granted! Shield Forge!" The belt exclaims, a ring appears under me, the ground inside the ring turns dark before flames raise up from the ring. Grabbing the hammer and bringing it down while exclaiming. "Henshin!" Shields materialise from the flames and fly out. "Mold Creation!" The belt shouts as the shields return to the ring and materialise around my body as armor. "The Multi-Layered Wall! Shield-Rider-Forge!" The flame dispersed as I rushed into the fight happening not too far off.

We are Artoria

Arthur:(draws blade) Cast Grimm, gaze and behold the light of Vale!

The Axe Grimm raises it's blade and swings it straight at me. Lifting up my shield, I block and push aside the axe blade. Swinging my body around I slash the leg of the Grimm as it falls to a knee. Quickly jumping up on the Grimm I swing my blade at the beast's head. The Grimm puts up it's free hand to block the blade by catching my arm. Damn! The Grimm then stands up and grabs my leg. Crap! The Grimm swings me around before tossing me into a wall. The Grimm approaches, raising up it's axe to the air.

Arthur:(stands up) Seems I'll need to approach this with… Range?(See blade embedded in Grimm's arm) Crap.(raises shield)

Axe Grimm:(swings axe) Raagh~!(axe blocked) Walpa? Fwon Iwalt Ida't Forge.

Arthur: Huh?(looks up) Who?-

Forge:(blocking shield) Hi, may I take a-(Grabs Arthur's blade) Stab!(stabs Grimm) Now back off!

Forge kicks the Axe Grimm away as it stumbles back. "I believe this is yours." Forge said, handing my blade back to me. "How- Ah, th-thank you for recovering Caliburn." I said taking my blade back, which got me a chuckle from Forge. "A name? Then it's good I got this back for ya." Forge said, turning back to the Grimm.

Arthur:(steps beside Forge) Any blade wielded by a Pendragon is named Caliburn, I never cared much for the idea of names. A blade is a blade. No more, no less.

Forge:(shrugs) That's a difference of opinion. Names give reason to weapon such-(grimm stands back up) Uup. Guess this is for later.

Arthur:(changes blade to gun) Agreed. Keep those shields up. I'll keep you covered from behind.

Forge puts his fists together as the shields on his arms extend out. "You got it mam!" Forge said, stepping forward and putting up his shields. I take aim and begin shooting at the Grimm as it charges at us. Shooting at the Grimm the rounds bounce off of the Grimm's Bone white armor. "The gaps! Go for the gaps in the armor!" Forge said slowly backing up, I take more time to aim and shoot. Grimm covers the gap with his free arm.

Forge:(backing up) It's not working!

Arthur:(backing up) I can see that!(reloads) I'll go for the leg!(shoots but Grimm tanks rounds)

Forge:(backing up) It's still not working!

Arthur:(backing up) I can see it!

Forge:(lifts up shields) He's getting Closer!

Arthur:(changing gun to blade) I can see! Dodge!

We both duck out of the way as the Grimm slams it's axe between us. "Alright, gaps!" Forge screams as the shields on his arms become smaller and change shape to a pavise shield with a blade at the tip. "Rrragh!" Forge punches piercing between the gaps of the Grimm's body armor. I rush in too, cutting at the Grimm's leg in the same spot as before. The Grimm grabs Forge, lifting him up with one arm and pushing him off. I need distance! Running over to Forge I helped him up.

Forge:(standing up) O-Okay then. Change of plans?

Arthur:(nods) Yes, stabbing or slicing won't work. That armor needs to go.

Forge:(backing up) Yeah, unfortunately I don't think I have anything to counter it.(glances at Arthur) Unless…

Forge reaches down to the side of his belt and removes a mold. "That's?" I ask, looking at the mold it's covered in black obsidian like substance. "A gift from our Gauntlet friend. Back in the Emerald Forest." Forge said, showing the mold, he clenches the mold as his fist begins to glow bright red. "Give me a moment!" Forge said, punching his fist into the ground, shields rise up and surround the grimm inside a shield dome. After a few seconds Forge opens his hand to reveal a new mold. Is this how he got that shield mold? "Time to-" Just then the shield dome shatters as a piece of shrapnel hits Forge's hand knocking the mold away.

Forge:(watches the mold fly) Crap the Gauntlet Mold!

Arthur:(chases after mold) I'll get it!(catches mold) Got it!(Girmm jumps up) H-Forge lookout!

Forge:(looks up) What? Shit!

Forge jumps out of the way of falling Grimm who smashes into the ground before jumping away. The two of us attempt to chase but the Grimm leaps across buildings to move great distances. "It's getting away!" Forge said, coming to a stop. Not if I can help it. Reaching for my scroll I call up my bike as the engines turn on and the bike drives up to me. "Get your bike, we're going after it!" I said getting on my bike.

We are Taiso

Forge:(looks at Arthur) … Y-Yeah, problem with that… I may have… kinda… (sweatdrop) Sorta… Forgot to bring it...

Arthur:(Visible confusion) Wha- h-How do you "Forget" to bring the thing that makes us, a Kamen, "Rider?!"

Forge:(shrugs) Well I'm sorry I don't have fancy tracking tech like you do! I ha-

The sound of a horn draws both of our attention to my bike driving up to me… What? "Why are you lying to me?" Arthur asks, I look up at her and shake my head and hands. "No no no no! I wasn't lying when I said I left mine behind!" I said looking around to see who called my bike, glancing to a rooftop I spotted a familiar silhouette. Is that…? My helmet camera zoomed in on Mrs. Glenda closing a Scroll of her own. Pushing up her glasses she turns around and walks away.

Arthur:(glances at rooftop) What are you looking at? The longer we wait the better chance that Grimm has to escape! Come on!

Forge:(hops on bike) R-Right! Let's ride!

Revving the engine, the two of us drive off after the Grimm. As we drive Arthur activates a siren. As we drive, I notice that other cars move out of the way for us to drive past. Ooh. Not only a discount but we have to make way just like the Police! "Still have that Mold?!" I ask to drive alongside Arthur. "I have it right here!" Arthur said, putting away the mold on the side of her belt. "Okay, I'm right on your back!" I said staying close to Arthur.

We are Observer

The two Riders drive off, in the skies above a Bullhead sits atop the cliff overlooking the train yard. "Sir, the Area is clear." A White Fang pilot said, looking at Roman behind him. Roman takes a puff of his cigar, blowing the smoke into the air. "About time." Roman said, stepping outside where a team of White Fang Members check their weapons.

Roman:(takes out cigar) Okay gentlemen. The Grimm and Riders are clear. Hop on the Bullhead, we move in, clear the area, grab what we can and get out. We can't waste time. Move!

White Fang Member: Roger!

The White Fang team enters the Bullhead as the engines rev up. Behind Roman a figure appears from out of the shadows. "Ah, I was wondering when you would show up." Roman said, turning to the figure. The figure smiles, opening her umbrella and raising it over her head. "Hop in Neo, let's make this quick." Roman said, stepping on to the Bullhead, Neo nods as she gets on too.

Downtown… We are Taiso

The Grimm lands on the ground in the center of the downtown area. "We need to stop it here!" Arthur said shooting at the Grimm. "Blade!" I swap the Mold inside the belt. "Granted! Blade Forge! Mold Creation!" "Henkei!" I exclaim bringing the blade down and changing the weapon. Putting out my palm I create a blade that I throw the blade. It twirls through the air and clips the Grimm in the shoulder. It hits the ground and the two of us park our bikes.

Arthur:(turns siren) Forge, block off the exits!(gets off) We don't want this Grimm to escape again!

Forge:(stretches hands) You got it mam. You keep it distracted in the meantime.(points to Arthur) I figure you should be using the Gauntlet Mold.

Arthur:(takes out mold) Are you sure about it?

Forge:(nods) Sure, go for it. In terms of strength you the su-

Arthur suddenly grabs my shoulder and drags me to look at her face to face. "Are you saying I'm some kind of muscle bound gorilla?" Arthur said, her grip slowly beginning to indent my armor. "I was just saying you're str- Owowowowow!" I exclaim, Arthur realising her what she was doing let's go. "Sorry!" Arthur said, putting her hands together.

Forge:(rubbing shoulders) Ouch, I don't even need to say it at this point… just, use the Mold and I'll make sure the Grimm can't leave.

Arthur:(nods) Right… Okay, I can do this… what did you say when you switched armor?

Forge:(sweatdrop) Why are you worried about that? Figure that out later.

We are Artoria

"R-Right." I said, Forge rushes off to start closing off exits. Looking at the mold, I reach down to my belt and remove the previous mold while activating the new one. "Gauntlet!" The mold exclaims as I insert it into the belt. "Granted! Gauntlet Arthur!" The belt exclaimed. "Change." I muttered, bringing down the blade lever on my belt. "The King of Boxers! Knockout~ Arthur!" a ring of light beams from under me as two gauntlets rise up. Kneeling down I insert my hands into them, I stand back up and clench my fists before putting the knuckles together. Light beams out from the gauntlets as the rest of the armor forms on me.

Arthur:(lowers fists) Ready yourself…(points knuckles) My holy fists will beat you into submission!
