Read on and see how Akamatsu deal with this kind of situation.

Well, read on and enjoy!

Ch. 8: Swing vs. Lazer

At Genmu Coporation, Kokichi Oma is inside his office, sitting on his chair as he appeared to be deep in thought, as he wondered what Ryoma is doing at the moment, and he appeared to be conflicted on whether he did the right thing in giving the Game Driver and Gashat to him or not, as he had a feeling that Ryoma might run into some COMPLICATION, should that scenario happen, unaware that it already have, and as he took a sip of Fanta, with the bottle, his secretary came and called his name, causing him to get startled and spit the contents on her face.

And you can see what happened after.

"PPPPFFFFHHHHTTT!"

"KKKKYYYAAAHHH!"

"KOFF-KOFF..."

"BAKA!"

"OW-OW-OW-OW!"

"YOU IDIOT!"

"KNOCK IT OFF, WILL YOU?!"

"THEN STOP SPITTING YOUR FANTA ON MY FACE!"

The secretary was so pissed that she decked Oma with the folders, telling him that it has become his habit, and she continued to clobber him as he pleaded to her to stop but she rebutted that he has to learn to control his habits as she kept on hitting him.

"BAKA! BAKA! BAKA!"

"OW-OW-OW-OW!"

"WHEN WILL YOU STOP SPITTING YOUR DRINK ON ME?!"

"WHEN YOU LEARN TO KNOCK THE DOOR! THAT WAY I WOULD KNOW WHEN YOU'LL SHOW UP!"

"I ALWAYS DO BUT YOU WOULD NOT RESPOND!"

"OW-OW-OW-OW!"

"DO YOU ALWAYS DO THAT WHENEVER I CAME?!"

"ENOUGH ALREADY! OW-OW-OW!"

Wanting to escape his secretary's wrath, and wanting to attend to some PERSONAL BUSINESS, Oma excused himself and left the office, leaving his secretary fuming as she had to recover her composure and leaves the office to attend to other matters within Genmu Corporation.

-x-

As the armored Ryoma is ready to deliver the killing blow aimed at his tormentors, Kaede 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, she did 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.

As Ryoma, who now calls himself Swing, charged forward and began swinging the racket in a tennis-style action and tried to hit his target, but Akamatsu, now as Lazer, dodges them as she tries to tell him she is not here to torment him and that whoever told him about her is a lie, but Swing screamed back and proclaimed that she will be among his tormentors who will fall before him.

"You bitch!"

"Stop it, Hoshi-kun!"

"I'll get you! You'll pay!"

"I'm not here to…!"

"Enough of your lies! I'll kill you!"

"Whoa!"

"You'll pay!"

"Hoshi-kun…!"

As Lazer tries to reach through him verbally, Swing managed to get closer and decked her with the Gashacon Racket, which he delivered a five-hit combo which connected and sends her reeling back, and as she staggered, Swing's racket began to generate energy projectiles that are the size of tennis balls and he struck them in typical tennis fashion, where the projectiles struck her down and sends her crashing against a parked car.

There Swing began to execute his finishing move which Lazer realizes that she is in a pinch as Swing presses a button on the side holster of the Game Driver and activated his finishing attack, intending to finish her off, unaware that he was really tricked into attacking her.

Gashat: "TERROR CRITICAL FINISH!"

Lazer willed herself to get up and jumped out of the way as Swing struck a charged-up energy ball with the racket, which struck the car and exploded, and the impact sends Lazer towards another parked car, denting the car door, and she managed to get her bearings as she is now facing the possibility of getting rough if she is to calm Ryoma down, seeing that he was emotionally manipulated into attacking her.

Swing then menacingly walked towards his downed opponent and asks her if she is ready to pay for her CRIMES, which Lazer is quite dazed to reply to his misguided threat, as she is trying to come up with a way to stop his rampage.

"Now then…"

"…"

"Any last words…?"

"…"

"Prepared to admit your crimes?"

"…"

"Get ready, you bitch!"

"…"

Not far, Saihara was watching the scene and he is worried at how things are going, seeing that Ryoma is acting like a crazed person attacking someone for the wrong reason, and he thought of something in order to help her, but he could not as he is recording the scene in secret, since he also secretly recorded what the corrupt politicians did and for admitting in covering up the real case in cahoots with the corrupt police.

By then Lazer started to fight back, using the WHEELS attached on her armored wrists, and she is forced to deliver some attacks in order to stop her opponent's momentum, and as much as it pains her, she had to be firm and try to halt Ryoma's rampage, so she delivered several hits and managed to knock him down to the ground. There she urged him to stop his rampage and listen to what she intend to say to him in order to open his eyes.

However, Swing would not be swayed and tells her that she is going down along with his tormentors.

"Don't get cocky!"

"…"

"I won't go down that easily!"

"…"

"You'll pay for framing me!"

"…"

"And I'll see to it that you'll pay!"

"…"

Swing then uses the Gashacon Racket to produce energy balls and hits them like tennis balls, where he fired them in varying speed, which forces Lazer to be on the defensive, which she blocked them with her armored wrists, but this enabled Swing to send more energy projectiles at her, and managed to knock her to the ground.

Seeing that she is being out-classed in the offensive range, she decided to go on the defensive, where she thought carefully and decided to try using speed to try and outwit him before striking him, and felt that this might put her in a risk but opted to gamble with it in order to try to knock Ryoma out of his transformation form.

"Blast…no choice…!"

Lazer then flips the lever on the Game Driver as she initiates her transformation into Level 2 form.

Gashat: "LEVEL UP! BAKUSOU! DOUKSOU! GEKISOU! BOUSOU! BAKUSOU BIKE~KU-OOOH!"

-TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE-

The scene shows that Lazer flew up in the air before going to the ground, where she began DRIVING as the wheels on her wrists took her, then her armored body began to DISENGAGE, heaving only her armored head and torso, then her arms and legs reattaches in a different way, and she now resembled an anthropomorphic motorcycle. She now assumes Level 2 form.

-END TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE-

Swing was taken aback at what he just saw, not expecting to see her change into a motorcycle, but then Lazer had to act fast and drove and went around him in a rather fast speed in an effort to catch him off-guard and then strike him when least expected. That way she might get the chance to knock him out of his transformation and then try to bring Ryoma back to his senses.

Meanwhile the corrupt politicians and their sons were forced to watch the scene, and they were too shocked to react, as they could not believe what they are seeing, and some of them were believing that this might be karma, but their fathers urged them not to give in and that they must make a getaway in order to keep them out of Japan so that the truth will never come out.

"Snap out of it!"

"We got to get you out of here!"

"While those brats are busy…we got to smuggle you out of Japan!"

"Come on!"

"Your future rests on getting out of here!"

"We'll see to it that the brat is dead so you can still remain clear!"

"That's right!"

"Hurry!"

Saihara was equally surprised, not expecting her to assume Level 2 and wondered what is she planning to do, seeing that Lazer might be in a bigger disadvantage if she were to use that kind of approach, and he could not do anything except watch as he had to keep his presence a secret in order not to complicate their intention to expose the corrupt politicians.

"Akamatsu-san…do you know what you are doing…?"

The scene shifts back to the scene of the battle, where Lazer, in Level 2 form, managed to outwit Swing, and after finding an opening, she uses the back wheel of her motorcycle form to hit Swing from the side, which sends him reeling before Lazer rammed him over, sending him crashing against another car, where he was stunned, but not knocked out.

As Swing struggled to get up, Lazer switched back to Level 1, assuming her human-sized, super deformed form and tells Swing to please calm down, telling him she is not affiliated with any political entity, which he rebuked her for the perceived lie, but then Akamatsu removed the Gashat from the Game Driver, and her armor disappeared.

Swing was surprised at what she did as she tells him she is not hear to torment him or anything, and reiterated that she is here to help him clear his name and exposed the true culprits, even offering to testify on the tennis prodigy's behalf.

"Hoshi-kun…"

"You…"

"I'm not affiliated with anyone."

"…"

"I'll testify on your behalf."

"What…?"

"I'll help you clear your name and expose those corrupt politicians."

"Eh…?"

Saihara was also surprised, as he did not expect Akamatsu to revert back to normal, and he became worried at what she is planning to do, knowing that Swing is still in a maddened stated and he might kill her on the spot.

"Akamatsu-san…"
