Many thanks to those who read and reviewed this fic. I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here the current story picks up where the last chapter left, in which Ryoma Hoshi is trying to elude capture while finding a way to clear his name, but something unexpected happens, as Saihara and Akamatsu found evidence that proved that Ryoma is innocent from the very start, but this also starts an unprovoked conflict as Ryoma and Akamatsu meets, which might result in either an alliance or a fight...
Well, then, read on and enjoy!
Ch. 7: Miwaku-tekina ofā
At Genmu Corporation, the secretary is taking calls when a group of investors came and asks the secretary if its CEO, Kokichi Oma, is available, as they have business with him, as they want to invest on the company seeing that the corporation's stocks were growing strong, and want to CASH IN on the company's popularity in making QUALITY GAMES, which the businessmen sees this as an opportunity to strengthen its business ties with the company.
However, the secretary told them that Oma left an hour ago and said that he will look forward to the meeting tomorrow, in which the businessmen said that it is fine, as they said that they look forward to having a personal meeting with Oma, stating their intention to invest heavily at Genmu Corporation, saying that the company is expanding and is popular to the masses.
"I see..."
"Would you please tell him we'd like to meet him tomorrow..."
"We really like to invest in this company."
"I am sure that Mr. Oma would appreciate it..."
"And tell him we have tons of proposals to show."
"Would that be okay?"
"We appreciate it if he entertain us..."
"Please...?"
The secretary nodded and said that she will inform Oma about the appointment tomorrow and the businessmen nodded and left, where they mumbled that they hoped that Oma would appreciate the suggestions they intend to suggest, and are expecting that Oma would be receptive and take their suggestions into account.
"I do hope that he would be willing to entertain us..."
"Indeed..."
"What would he think of our proposal...?"
"I'm sure he would be receptive..."
"Yes...he would accept since his company need a lot of investors..."
"I expect him to sign the contract..."
"May the best company win..."
"You're on..."
As the businessmen left, the secretary sighed as she wondered what Oma is up to after it is shown that Oma left an hour ago and not telling her where he is going, though she felt it is none of her business as she continue doing her job.

Saihara and Akamatsu were secretly hiding and heard what the corrupt politicians are discussing and were incensed that the politicians intend to cover everything up in order to prevent Ryoma from clearing his name, and thus Saihara got to witness such a despicable crime of framing Ryoma in which Ryoma's former schoolmates orchestrated the murder of the tennis enthusiast four years ago, and Akamatsu urged Saihara that they need to do something to expose the real culprits of the crimes they committed.
"Saihara-kun!"
"..."
"We got to do something..we can't let them get away with this!"
"I agree..."
"Keep recording...I'll see if i could stall them..."
"It's dangerous..."
"It's the only way...!"
"Akamatsu..."
Before Saihara and Akamatsu could do anything, the two teens were taken by surprise upon seeing Ryoma Hoshi arriving in front of his tormentors, and hearing everything, the 16-year old boy stared viciously at the bullies who ruined his life, and vowed that he will not let them get away with it and make sure they will pay for murdering his benefactor and for framing him for a crime he never committed, and the lead politician tried to verbally shoot him down into submission so as to discourage Ryoma, which did little to deter the young boy who suffered during the last for years.
"Hah! So what?"
"..."
"You think we're scared of you?"
"..."
"You're a convict now! No one will believe you!"
"Whatever. Either way, I will not let you get away with this. I may not get the justice legally...but I will make sure you will pay."
"Are you trying to scare us?"
"No...stating the truth."
The other politician nudged his head as the bodyguards went in front and aimed their guns at him, and the lead politician asks his fellow politician what is he doing, and the fellow politician says that it would be risky to let him live, fearing that he might spill the beans to the media, but the lead politician says no one would believe a convicted felon, but the fellow politician reiterated that it is better than letting Ryoma cause a political gossip that might affect their political careers.
"It's better this way!"
"What?"
"If we let him live, he would blab to the media...and though he had no proof...our political rival might take advantage of it!"
"But..."
"Look...on paper he's wanted...but we have the legal basis to protect ourselves!"
"Then..."
"We can use this as a basis of self-defense...and we can be hailed as heroes in the eyes of the public!"
"You're right!"
Seeing the logic, the lead politician consented, and as the other corrupt politician asks Ryoma if he has any last words, Ryoma just glared at them as he took out something from his jacket, which appeared to be a huge belt buckle with a lever, but Akamatsu stared in shock at recognizing the device that Ryoma is holding, and when Saihara asks her what is wrong, she told him what Ryoma is holding - the Game Driver.
Saihara stared in surprise upon hearing this and glanced at the scene, where Ryoma puts the Game Driver in front of his waist which immediately forms a belt, and he took out a hand-sized video game cartridge and presses a button where the cartridge's voice spoke.
Cartridge: "TERROR TENNIS…"
A projection materialized where several boxes appeared and the scene now resembled a projection-like version of a tennis court, and the bullies and their politician parents are baffled at what is going on, and there Ryoma inserts the cartridge on the left portion of the belt which then initiated his transformation, and both Saihara and Akamatsu watches the scene before them in utter shock and surprise.
"Henshin."
Cartridge: "GASHATO! LET'S GAME...ME-CHA GAME...MU-CHA GAME...WHA-CHA NAME...I'M A KAMEN RIDER!"
-TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE-
The scene shows that Ryoma is surrounded by a series of holographic images that are encircling around him and he tapped one of the images in front of him by hitting it in a tennis-like fashion, and the image went towards Ryoma, encasing him in a whitish armor which made him resembled a human adult sized, chibi-looking armored figure, which vaguely resembled an armored trooper from Star Wars, the only difference is that the helmet's EYES were so big making it look like a super-deformed person.
Another noticable feature is that the armored person's helmet sports a tennis player's cap, and his armored appearance has an armored tennis attire, which was white with blue streaks.
-END TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE-
As the bullies and their politician-parents stared wide-eyed in surprise, Saihara and Akamatsu were equally surprised, as they did not expect Ryoma to possess those devices and they are baffled as to how he got hold of the said-devices, and as Akamatsu wondered how is it possible for Ryoma to do that, Saihara slowly pieced the puzzles together, and told her what he dedced just now, which further shocked Akamatsu at what she is just told.
"Akamatsu..."
"What?"
"I think I know how Mr. Hoshi got those."
"What do you mean?"
"Genmu Corporation."
"What...? Are you suggesting...?"
"Either he approached Kokichi Oma...or stole it without Oma knowing...
"No...it can't be..."
The scene shifts to Ryoma, who is now encased in an armor, and slowly approached the politicians as intend to make them pay for the sufferings he endured in the four years that passed, as well as getting revenge on the bullies for murdering his benefactor. He is slowly consumed with rage seeing that the politicians intend to cover up the crimes their sons committed, as evident when he heard from them that they murdered the surviving gangster in order to prevent him from testifying.
The lead politician was taken aback and ordered his bodyguards to shoot him down which the bodyguards obliged as they open fire, but their bullets only bounce off the armor, and as the bodyguards kept firing at the armored Ryoma, the politicians scrambled to get their sons on the speedboat in order for them to get away as they did not want them to die.
"HURRY!"
"GET ON THE BOAT!"
"DON'T ARGUE!"
"QUICK..WHILE OUR BODYGUARDS STALL THAT BRAT!"
"WHERE'S THE DRIVER?"
"WHO CARES?"
"JUST START THE FUCKING BOAT!"
"DO IT!"
As the politicians are scrambling, the armored Ryoma went forward, punching the bodyguards aside as he saw the politicians are about to have their sons board the speedboat, and incensed, he pressed a button on the side of the Game Driver where the Gashat's voice spoke to confirm the activation.
Gashat: "GASHACON RACKET!"
A metallic racket materialize and struck one of the bodyguards on the face, busting him open which an X-RAY scene showed that the bodyguard's skull cracked all over, and the bodyguard fell to the ground, dead. The other bodyguards, continue to fire their guns, which did little to stop him, and the armored Ryoma screamed at his tormentors that he will not let them get away, as he pressed a button on the Game Driver to execute a powerful attack.
Gashat: "KIMEWAJA!"
The metallic racket glowed where a tennis-sized energy projectile is formed, and the politicians stared wide-eyed at seeing this, causing terror upon them as they feared that their sons would get caught in the crossfire.
"WHAT THE?"
"GET OFF THE BOAT!"
"QUICK SHOVING ME!"
"HELP!"
"I DON'T WANT TO DIE!"
"MOMMY!"
"OUT OF THE WAY!"
"BACK OFF!"
Likewise, the bullies saw this and became terrified as they do not want to die, and are scrambling to get off the speedboat and are even going to jump on the waters to avoid getting hit, and this caused a scene where the bullies started to panic and are pushing each other aside just to save themselves despite their politician-parents trying to calm them down.
"WHAT THE?"
"GET OFF THE BOAT!"
"QUICK SHOVING ME!"
"HELP!"
"I DON'T WANT TO DIE!"
"MOMMY!"
"OUT OF THE WAY!"
"BACK OFF!"
By then Ryoma removes the Gashat and slots it to another slot of the belt and pressed the button, which activated the finishing attack.
Gashat: "TERROR CRITICAL FINISH!"
The armored Ryoma did a tennis strike where the energy projectile went towards the speedboat, and though the politicians managed to get their sons off the speedboat, the energy projectile struck the speedboat, resulting in a strong explosion, which the impact sends the politicians and their sons flying off and hit the ground, and they were all badly hurt, due to the impact of the explosion and debris hitting their bodies.
They were so badly hurt that they could not move, and Ryoma proceeded to kill off the bodyguards in brutal fashion, as he intend to get revenge and make them pay for the sufferings he endured, and there he slowly the injured culprits, and saw one of the politicians using his smartphone to contact the corrupt police warden, in which the speaker was accidentally activated, and the conversation is heard between them.
"Ryoma Hoshi is what...?"
"Y-yes...that's..."
"Try stalling him...bribe him or anything...I'll head there and make it appear that Hoshi intend to murder you..."
"Can't you hurry?"
"It takes 20 minutes for me to get there...and I'll use my authority to do a SHOOT TO KILL order...and until then, try to bribe him in order to stall him."
"Geez..."
"Just do it, lest you want to be forced to admit your guilt on the conspiracy..."
"Fine!"
Saihara and Akamatsu heard it where the conversation showed that the warden suggested to the politician to try stalling Ryoma by bribing him and confuse him, so that he will use his position as police chief to instigate the police to use shoot to kill order on Ryoma in order to silence him so that the politicians won't be exposed.
The two teens discovered that the conspiracy is deeper than they thought, and there they saw the armored Ryoma smashing the smartphone and grabbed the politician by his collar as he intend to kill him along with his cronies and sons, in which the politician begged for mercy and pleaded, claiming that he will testify and prove Ryoma's innocence.
This, however did not sway him after pointing out to the politician that he murdered the lone survivor and possible witness and for collaborating with the police chief, and said that Ryoma now has no way of clearing his name, but at least he will ensure that he will get justice for himself and his benefactor who was murdered just to frame Ryoma for the crime he did not commit, and the politician is terrified and tries to appease him, but to no avail.
"W-wait..."
"..."
"Don't!"
"..."
"I'll testify...really!"
"..."
"I'll even give you a pardon...or even a million Yen..."
"..."
Ryoma was angry at the politician's attempt and crushed his neck, killing him on the spot. Ryoma then turn his attention to the others, who were horrified at what they saw, and now he told them that while they may escape the law he will make sure that they will not harm others again, admitting that he may never get the justice he seek through legal means, and the least he can do to honor his benefactor's memory is to avenge his death due to the bullies's senseless actions.
The bullies were terrified and pleaded, stating that they will testify to clear his name so as to get him to change his mind and not kill them, much to their parents' disbelief.
"ARE YOU CRAZY?"
"YOU CAN'T!"
"YOU'LL BE JAILED!"
"AND OUR POLITICAL CAREERS WOULD BE IN JEOPARDY!"
"WAIT FOR THE WARDEN TO ARRIVE!"
"DO NOT ADMIT IT! OR WE'LL BE JAILED!"
"WE MEAN IT!"
"AND DO AS WE SAY!"
However, Ryoma pointed out that one of the politicians has ties with the police chief and will cover their tracks, and thus, the bullies and their parents will get away with it, and thus Ryoma made it clear that he will not let them get away with their misdeeds and will finish them off before they get another chance to victimize a new victim.
This caused the bullies to scream in terror as Ryoma approaches them, clenching his armored fists as he is getting ready to finish them off.
However, Akamatsu showed up and stood in front of the armored Ryoma and pleaded to him to halt his rampage and said that she is willing to help him clear his name, and told him that she would do whatever it takes to clear his name and get his normal life back, which seemed to sway Ryoma somehow as her tone showed that she meant what she said.
"Hoshi-kun!"
"!"
"Don't do it!"
"..."
"I heard everything! I'll be your witness! You don't have to kill them!"
"Are you...?"
"Yes...I will help clear your name!"
"..."
But then he asks her who she is, and upon revealing her name, the armored Ryoma clenched his fists upon hearing Akamatsu's full name, and his tone is filled with anger. A brief flashback showed that Ryoma was told by Oma that Akamatsu is ASSOCIATED with the mafia group that killed Ryoma's benefactor and is said that she is a COMPULSIVE LIAR, and thus she would frame Ryoma of more fabricated crimes.
The armored Ryoma then told Akamatsu that she will go down along with the corrupt politicians and the gangsters, which she tried to correct him saying that what he is accusing her of is not true, which he brushed off her percieved lies and began to attack her, using the Gashacon Racket, which nearly hit her chest and only grazed a portion of her upper clothing and bra, almost exposing her breast and nipple, and Akamatsu sensed that someone told Ryoma about a lie about her and realized that she has to subdue him and then try to convince him.
She then removed her backpack and took out a device, and much to Ryoma's surprise, the device turns out to be the Game Driver, which she fasten it around her waist which formed the belt, and took out a cartridge, which also turns out to be the Gashat, and she pressed a button on the Gashat to have it ready for activation.
Gashat: "BAKUSOU BIKE!"
The armored Ryoma and the corrupt politicians stared in surprise seeing that Akamatsu is able to access the Gashat, as several projection image of ITEMS appeared around their surrounding areas, and there she pleaded to Ryoma to stop his assault and said she is willing to listen to his plight, but the enraged Ryoma to shove her lies as he will take her down along with his tormentors, and she frowned as she sees that she may have to fight him in order to calm him down.
"You...you evil bitch!"
"No...you're..."
"Your lies won't work! I'll kill you...and then those bastards...!"
"I guess i'll have to fight you in order to calm you down..."
"What?"
"And once you do...I'll explain everything to you later."
"What are you...?"
"Henshin."
Cartridge: "GASHATO! LET'S GAME...ME-CHA GAME...MU-CHA GAME...WHA-CHA NAME...I'M A KAMEN RIDER!"
-TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE-
The scene shows that Akamatsu is surrounded by a series of holographic images that are encircling around her, and instead of using her palm to tap one of the images, shedid a jumping spinning roundhouse kick to tapped one of the images, and the image went towards Akamatsu, encasing her in a whitish armor which made her resembled a human adult sized, chibi-looking armored figure, which vaguely resembled an armored trooper from Star Wars, the only difference is that the helmet's EYES were so big making it look like a super-deformed person.
Another noticeable feature is that the armored person sports a yellow motorcycle helmet with red spikes, and she is armed with a pair of gauntlets with motorcycle wheels that act as weapons. She now assumes Level 1 form.
-END TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE-
Assuming Level 1 form, Akamatsu transform into a Kamen Rider, and is ready to fight, and there a rather surprised Ryoma asks her how and why she has those devices, and she said that she found them and that she is a Kamen Rider, which she calls herself Kamen Rider Lazer.
Ryoma scoffed as he christens himself as Kamen Rider Swing, and said he will show her what a tennis prodigy can do when FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE.
To Be Continued...
Looks like a conflict is about to ensue, as Ryoma's rage after years of torment is starting to overtake his reasoning, and he mistakenly assumes Akamatsu to be in league with the corrupt politicians, thanks to Oma's lie.
Looks like the two are now ready to fight as Kamen Riders, but who would get the upper hand...?
Preview:
The next chapter commences the fight where Kamen Rider Swing shows why he is the TERROR TENNIS...but will Lazer be able to hold out enough without hurting him too much…?
See you in 3 to 4 weeks…
