Author's note: Alright you guys, this is the second part of the final battle! This is will be one of the toughest battles for our heroes as they will be pushed to their absolute limits against this formidable invader. Will they succeed? Only one way to find out, let's dive in!

Meanwhile right outside of the ship, the secondary Riders were making great work over the Kaijin grunts along with Princess Celestia, Luna and Cadance, plus Shining Armor, Spike and Eddy's brother.
The three Alicorn Princesses managed to hold on their own against the Kaijin grunts by blasting most of them with their magic. While Shining Armor and Eddy's brother are their defenses and watch their backs. Spike now being an Ursa Minor was able to squash some of the monsters with his sheer strength and weight, crushing them with his paws and claws or chew some of them with his jaws.
Accel looked around, seeing that the Kaijin foot soldiers are decreasing. He decided to further increase the odds to their favor.
"I'll shake everything up!" He said as he removes his Accel Memory from his Driver and pulls out another Memory. This one however seems more like a black digital stopwatch with a few silver pieces, with a digital timer in the center along with a few words like lap, time, seconds. It also had the word Trial in the center and on the end of the Memory part of it. Accel then press the button to activate the Memory.
TRIAL!
Accel then flip the stopwatch head to the side, which reveals the letter T stands for Trial and a small traffic light like design underneath it before he inserts the Memory into his Driver. He then grips the right handlebar of the belt and turning it a few times which emits more engine noises.
TRIAL!
Then the traffic light design flashes red once, then it flashes yellow, which causes Accel's entire suit to turn yellow for a brief moment. Before the Memory flashes blue which creates several motorcycle engine constructs that circles around him before it breaks of most of his suit and in turn creates an entirely new form.
Accel's entire suit is now blue and his armor is lesser than before and some are now slimmer and leaner in built, though it only made him look more agile and faster. He had a grey metal chest plate with several exhaust ports, knee pads while the wheels still attach to the side of his legs. His helmet also gained a cap like biker helmet and a mouthpiece like exhaust port and his compound eyes are now orange instead of blue. Accel is now in his Trial Form.
Then out of nowhere, Accel disappeared in a short spurt of speed as he rapidly attacks several more Kaijins in less than a few seconds.
The ponies were stunned by Accel's new form and abilities, while Eddy's brother whistles in interest "And I thought Taro was an impressive speedster." he commented.
"Seriously though, just how many speedsters do we have now?" Spike said with a dumbfounded look.
But the other Riders seemed to catch his drift "Seems that Accel wants to go all out." Birth commented before he pull out six Cell Medals he carried around "Can't afford to hold back anymore." he stated as he inserts all six of them into his Birth Driver before he twist the knob on the side.
CRANE ARM! CATEPILLAR LEG! SHOVEL ARM! BREAST CANNON! DRILL ARM! CUTTER WING!
Suddenly, numerous machinery like objects appeared out of Birth's Driver and formed all around him. Turning Birth into a heavily mechanical armored suit, Birth now equipped with large metal legs that resembles an elephant's foot with tank treads, plane wings with yellow lines on his back, his right arm is equipped with a large mechanical crane like contraption and a drill attached to the hand, while his left forearm is covered in a mechanical claw like shovel and his chest had a cannon. Birth is in his Birth Day form.
The Cell Medal Rider saw a few more Kaijins coming as he rolls over them with his large metal legs and swing his drill around, damaging several more goons while it attached to a cable like winch to the crane before he takes to the air and rams a large number of them.
Meteor then removes the Astroswitch in his Driver and got out another one, this one however is neon blue with a yellow meteor symbol on the lower part. The most eye catching part is that it had a blue and yellow windmill like fan on the center. The space Rider then inserts the switch into his Driver.
METEOR STORM!
It announces as he presses the button on top of the AstroSwitch.
METEOR ON!~READY!?
Then Meteor spins the fan like windmill on it, causing it to create a massive multicolor swirling turbine like spiral in front of him. Eventually the spiral disipates, revealing Meteor's new form. His suit is now neon blue, making the planetary ring system more visible along with more stars like patterns on it. He now had yellow knee pads, wrist bands, ankle bands along with the right shoulder pad becoming yellow and an additional left shoulder pad to even it out. His helmet design is still similar previously, but it is also yellow now and had three pointed comet tails on both sides of the helmet instead, his compound eyes are now red instead of magenta and in his right hand is a long pole like weapon which is neon blue and silver. He is now Kamen Rider Meteor Storm and his weapon is the Meteor Storm Shaft.
The newly Meteor Storm then twirls his shaft like weapon around " I'm Kamen Rider Meteor Storm! My fate will call forth the storm!" he said his catchphrase as he pounces on another group of Kaijins and began to wack most of them with his new weapon with ease.
Beast then removed the ring on his right finger and placed a new ring on it. This Wizard Ring had blue molded etches around it and it had a gold lion face on it and a blue gem on it's forehead "Let's do this Chimera!" Beast said as he then placed the ring on the right side of his Driver.
HYPER! GO! HY-HY-HY-HYPER!
The belt announced as it flashes multiple colors before creating a large gold spectral lion like chimera creature made of sparkly gold dust that flies around before it got behind Beast and charged towards him. Once hit the spectral being was disperse into more colorful dust particles that glimmers around Beast in a neon blue and gold color before it dims down to reveal his new form.
Beast is now also neon blue, only that he had more gold armor on him. With gold greaves, vambraces with gold fringes on his forearms, wrist bands and a gold chest armor that had a lion face molded on it with two large shoulderpads design like manes and a red abdomen to give the impression that it's the lion's mouth. His helmet is now also neon blue with gold lines and a gold crest on his forehead with a blue gem on it, along with a gold mouthpiece similar to a lion's mouth and his compound eyes are now red instead of green. He is now in his Hyper form.
Beast then clapped his hands together "Now, it's um..." he paused a moment to look at the sky to see that it's almost night time "...Dinner time!" he announced.
"Dinner time?" Most of the ponies asked in unison, perplexed by the bizarre catchphrase.
"Don't ask." Meteor said in a deadpanned tone.
Beast Hyper then summons a new weapon, it's a matching blue gun like firearm with gold assets on it. It had a lion molded on the side with it pouncing and mouth open where a red gem is in the mouth. It also had a small mirror on the end of it and a small insert place for his ring. This was his Mirage Magnum.
Beast then fires several rounds of magical bullet attacks on the Kaijins as it did a huge number on them.
Last but not least, Baron removes his Sengoku Driver and placed a new Driver on his waist. This Driver appears to be slightly bulkier and it is red instead, it had a plunger like squeezer on both left and right side, though the right was further away. It also had a few tubes around it that resembles straws and a glass like cup at the bottom of the belt. This was the newly Genesis Driver. Baron then pulled out a Lemon energy Lockseed out and unlocked it.
LEMON ENERGY!
As a Helheim zipper crack appeared above him and a mechanical lemon emerges from it. Baron placed the Lockseed in the center of his Driver before locking it in place.
LOCK ON!
He then grabs the side of his belt and pushes it to the lockpad, giving the impression that it squeezes the fruit in the center to drain the juice from it to drip down to the cup like pod under the Driver.
SODA! LEMON ENERGY ARMS!
It announces as the mechanical Lemon lands itself on Baron before it refolds and readjust itself to form a new armor for him.
FIGHT THE POWER! FIGHT THE POWER! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FI-FI-FI-FI-FIGHT!
His transformation completes. Baron still generally looked the same as before, only now that his chest armor is now replaced with a yellow lemon style armor with his logo on the left side of his chest. He no longer has a left shoulder pad while his right shoulder pad resembles a sliced lemon, with two yellow capes reaching to his thighs and his helmet had two thin antenna like horns on the side, along with a half sliced lemon on each side where his ears are. Baron is now in his Lemon Energy Arms.
The new generation Armored Rider then summons a Sonic Arrow in his right hand which is identical to Gaim's Sonic Arrow. He aims the arrow right at a couple of Kaijins before pulling the arrow and fires it right at his opponents, aiming them dead ahead and all of them were greatly damaged from it.
"It seems that transformations and changing forms are a common trope among these Kamen Riders." Celestia said as she analyses all five of the Secondary Riders new appearances.
"Aye aye, and each of their powers and abilities are so diverse from one another." Luna agrees with her elder sister.
Shining Armor only sniffed "These Riders really like to show of their looks don't they?" he commented.
Princess Cadance however gave him a disapproved look "Shining Armor! I thought I told you not to disrespect them like that again." she scolded him.
"What!? I mean come on Cadance! You gotta admit that some of them look way too flashy!" Shining Armor tried to defend himself "Especially those two." He said as he specifically pointed at Meteor and Beast.
"Gotta agree with him on this one." Eddy's brother stated.
"I still think they're pretty cool though." Spike interjected before he saw a flying Kaijin flying towards them, he then swipe his large paws to swat it away.
"If Spike is okay with them, so am I." Cadance agreed with the dragon turned Ursa Minor as she and the others continue the fight.
Back inside the reactor room of the ship, the nine of them charged head on towards Chrysalis, Fourze and Wizard slash down their swords at her. She manages to grab both of them, which only lead her open for OOO's to slash her from head to stomach with his Medagabryu, causing her to screech out in pain and let go of Fourze and Wizard's swords. Then Twilight and Eddward got behind Chrysalis and fired another magical blast from their crown and cane right at her back, creating a powerful beam that pushes her towards Eddy and Rolf who are waiting for her to get close enough for them to strike.
The Changeling kaijin however uses the stolen speed element to move of off the beam at the last second and landed safely nearby. Eddy and Rolf have their eyes pop out of their skulls for a moment before they dodge the magical attack just in time.
"Hey! What are you two trying to do, blast us?" Eddy said annoyed.
"Eddy, it's not our fault that Chrysalis would..." Eddward tried to defend himself and Twilight until he paused "BEHIND YOU!" the prince shouted as Twilight looked worry as well.
Eddy and Rolf quickly looked behind to see Chrysalis raising her green halberd up high to slice them in half. The two ponies dodged in the naked time as the weapon only hit the floor. But Chrysalis didn't stop there as she then turned her attention towards Eddy as she fires several rounds of purple and violet flame like attacks.
Eddy tries to block most of them away, but he's struggling a bit "Boy these fire attacks are a lot more intense than the ones in Araya's old spellbooks!" the gold clad pony stated as he tries to fight through the flames.
"This is really getting intense!" Duncan commented as he and the others witness the fight.
"We all can agree on that partner." Applejack replied to the mohawk Pegasus.
"How are they?" Gaim asked the fellow Rider.
Double was checking on the four injured ponies when they nodded "Rainbow was seriously burned, Pinkie had a concussion. But it's not too severe, so they'll wake up sooner or later." Double said with Philip's voice as he turned towards Taro and Ed "As for Ed and Taro, both their elemental magic were stolen by Chrysalis. I'm not sure how long it'll be for them to regain consciousness." he said as they turned to Duncan "You got any ideas Duncan?" Double asked.
The mohawk Pegasus however shook his head "No clue, Taro and I are not magic experts like Eddy or his brother." he stated.
Double nodded as they turned back to the fight in front of them.
Chrysalis was able to hold of Eddy for a moment when Rolf suddenly race towards them "The son of shepherd shall not let such hideous being gaining triumph!" he said as he shot his front hooves up to use his element to shove Chrysalis away, but to his surprised the villainess was still holding on.
"The same trick won't work twice you know!" Chrysalis taunted as she uses her magic keep herself on the ground. Feeling desperate, Rolf decides to push Chrysalis down to the floor again like last time, but again the Changeling Queen persisted "Like I said, it won't work again for you!" she mocked the royal advisor.
"You think so!?" Eddy exclaims as he fought through her attacks and was about to throw a punch right at her face.
But Chrysalis saw it coming as she morphs her left hand into a long and sharp scythe like blade which she uses to swing right at the pony.
"Woah!" Eddy halted his punch quickly as he tried to move away from the blades. He manages to back away in time, but the tip of the scythe like weapon had made a medium sized cut on the side of his muzzled. Eddy checked his face and see a few drops of blood from it "Geez that was a close call." he said, realizing that one false move would have resulted his face being slice in half.
OOO's fly straight towards Chrysalis with his purple pteranodon wings, then the purple tassets on his upper thighs morphs into a purple T-rex tail in which he swings it right at Chrysalis. She was able to caught the tail and spun him around rapidly before throwing him to the side, but the Rider manage to regain his momentum and the yellow triceratops horn on each of his shoulders extended to great lengths that manages to jab her shoulders, holding her in place.
"NOW EVERYONE!" OOO's called out as the group was about to strike her.
Chrysalis however scoffs as she grab the horns that pierce her shoulders and pulled them out with ease before she inhaled and breath out a massive typhoon like wind that pushes OOO's further away.
Then Fourze try to slash her with his Barizun Sword, but she dodged the attack with the speed element as she was heading towards Rolf.
"Rolf look out!" Eddward warned him as he raised his cane and fired several magical beams at her. But Chrysalis raised her arm and fired her Cosmic Energy Arrows from her Gilgamesh crossbows which counteracts most of Eddward's magic blast before she gets even closer to Rolf.
The Royal Advisor was prepare for the assault, but at the last second a Helheim zipper portal appeared in front of her and she gone straight into it, before the portal disappears from sight "What sort of deception will you foul being pulling Rolf this time?" he demanded as he and everyone looked around.
Gaim gasped as he realized what she's doing "Guys! Chrysalis has an Overlord's power, so she could control the Helheim Cracks. That means she could pop back out from anywhere!" he warned them as all of them are on guard. Then they all heard a Helheim zipper portal reopened as they tried to locate the portal around the vastly large room.
"What in Rolf's eggplants!?" everyone heard Rolf exclaim as they turned to see what's wrong. Much to everyone's shocked, they saw the small zipper cracks on the floor bellow Rolf where a pair of hands came out of it to hold Rolf's two front hooves.
"ROLF!" The colts called out in worry.
"The floor! Why didn't we think of that sooner?" Eddward stated dumbfounded as the Changeling Queen began to siphon Rolf's elemental ability as the pony struggles to pull himself out of her grasp, with each second he felt weaker and weaker.
"I'm coming Stretch!" Eddy said as he flew towards them as fast as he could. But the Helheim zipper portal opens wider, to be a big enough size for Chrysalis to pull Rolf right into it and the portal closes at the last second before Eddy got there.
"DAM IT!" Eddy shouted as he slammed his hoof hard on the floor, seeing that he was seconds too late to save his pal.
"Guy! They could popped back out at any time and anywhere!" Gaim reminded everyone as they all raised their guard up.
Then they heard it, the zipper portal open back up right above all of their heads. They looked up to see Chrysalis emerged from it while holding a drained up Rolf with her right hand "Well, now this is really refreshing." said the abomination as she carelessly dropped Rolf down on the floor.
"Rolf...no!" Eddward whispered in fear as Fluttershy whimpers and Eddy began to glared at Chrysalis in rage. Every other ponies looked at Rolf in worried while the Riders still keep their eye on Chrysalis.
"Shit! This is not good." Double cursed with Shotaro's voice.
"That's it! She's gone too far!" Duncan snapped as he's about to charged in until Double placed their right hand on his wing.
"No Duncan! We can't risk having Chrysalis absorbing your nullification element as well." Double warned with Philip's voice "With it, she'll be impervious to any magical abilities thrown at her." Philip explained.
"So what!? We're just gonna sit by the side lines?" Duncan retorted, but Double shook his head.
"We'll go out there." Double said with Shotaro's voice "I was thinking that too Shotaro." Philip replied.
Then Applejack step up beside him "Ahm going too! Mah friends need me!" she insisted as the half & half Rider nodded before turning back to Gaim and Duncan.
"Kouta, Duncan. Don't loose sight of them!" Double said with Shotaro's voice as they and Applejack join in the frey.
Chrysalis got down on the ground in front of Rolf "I enjoy draining out of you, but I think it's time that I eliminate you." she said as she then summons Redyue's halberd and was about to chop the weakened Rolf in half.
"OH NO YOU WON'T!" Eddy yells as he dashes towards her when suddenly Double tosses his Bicker Shield like a frisbee to knock the Halberd of her hand and he throws his Prism Sword right dead at Chrysalis's abdomen. It wasn't able to pierce through her flesh, but it was enough to stunned her for a moment, so that Eddy could get there to deliver a solid punch right at her face as it was followed by more barrage of punches.
"Ora! Ora! Ora! Ora! Ora! Ora!" Eddy shouted each time he lands a punch on her before delivering a solid punch right at her gut, at the same spot where Double threw his Prism Sword at. Which allows Fluttershy to flew by to get Rolf to safety with Gaim and Duncan.
It was enough to cause Chrysalis to stepped back in retaliation before Applejack jumps up high "And fa good measures!" she said as she was about to deliver a solid apple bucking kick right at her nose. But Chrysalis saw it coming and grabs Applejack's hoof as it was inches away from her face before tossing her towards Rarity with enough force to hit both of them hard into the metal wall.
"That's no way to treat a lady." Wizard scolded as he turned his Axcalibur horizontally and grab it by the other end, flipping his weapon upside down to turn his weapon to it's Axe's mode.
TURN ON!
The Axcalibur announced as it gone to axe mode as the magician Rider then swung the Axe right at Chrysalis who grab the blade of the axe before summoning forth several magical chains and Helheim vines which wraps around Wizard in a vice grip.
The mage Rider struggles as the vines and chains drain most of his magical mana for Chrysalis to feed upon on. Then Eddward flew behind her and fired his magical beams from his cane right at her. Seeing this, she immediately let go of Wizard and disappeared in a flash before the magical attack hit her.
"Where did she go?" Eddward said.
"Eddward look out!" Fluttershy screech in fear.
He heard Fluttershy's warning as he suddenly felt a presence behind him. He turned around to see Chrysalis behind him as the said monster was about to grab him by his face.
CLAW!
CLAW~ON!
Then Fourze charges in with his Barizun Sword in hand as it projects three massive blue claws, which he uses to slash Chrysalis's back stunning her a bit before he continues to repeatedly attacking her with his weapon before jabbing it right at her chest, pushing her away from Eddward.
"You okay there prince?" Fourze asked.
The Alicorn prince nodded "Yes I am, you have my thanks Mr. Fourze." he gratefully said.
"Just call me Gentaro! We're pals right?" Fourze said with a thumbs up before turning his attention back to Chrysalis and saw her firing several Cosmic Energy Arrows at him. He tried to block most of them with his Barizun Sword, but a few that passes by him flew right back and hit straight at his back. Damaging his rocket-pack, along his entire suit, causing him to yell in pain before she finishes off by sending a massive shockwave out of her right palm that sends him flying and hit Wizard in the process.
"Gentaro! Haruto!" OOO's yell out as he jump back into the fight as Double manages to retrieve his Prism Sword and Bicker Shield. The two remaining Riders were about to strike the Changeling Queen as her injuries were beginning to heal rapidly thanks to all of the magic she managed absorbed from some of the heroes.
"You all put up a tussle, I'll give you that. But I think it's about time that I finish this." Chrysalis said as she decides to use all of the magic she gathered and dishes it back out. She began to spin rapidly in place, creating a black tornado with a violent storm that charges with purple lightning that sucked in Double, OOO's, along with the weakened Fourze and Wizard as the storm charged lightning raged all throughout the room, causing explosion after explosion.
"Everypony! Hold on!" Twilight yelled as she forms a purple dome around her.
Gaim and Duncan tried their best to hold onto the ground and prevent their weakened comrades from being sucked into it . Eddward and Eddy hold onto the floor as best as they could with their own magic and will while also trying to avoid the devastating storm that shot out numerous lightnings at them.
"How strong is this storm!?" Eddy exclaimed in shocked.
"Chrysalis must have dished out all of the magic she drained from Taro, Ed and Rolf. Along with some of the Rider's powers to make this attack!" Eddward concluded.
A large bolt of violet lightning came screeching towards Rarity and Applejack, both managed to regain consciousness from their initial injuries. Fluttershy flew in and summon swarms of butterflies from her necklace and all of them formed a barrier around her and her friends. The bolt of lightning crashed against her shield like a runaway freight train, causing Fluttershy's entire body to erupt with pain as she struggled to keep the barrier up.
"Hold on, Darling, I've got you!" Rarity said as she uses her Elemental necklace to form a secondary shield of diamonds around the three of them.
"It's…too…much…!" Fluttershy strained as the two struggled to held up their magical barrier.
The barrier could not withstand anymore as the lightning bolt broke through the first shield layer and now dug into the second. Two more bolts joined the primary one and at last it pierced the shield, exploding it and sending the three mares onto the floor, their bodies wracked with pain as the malevolent lightning surged through their bodies. That same lightning was doing a number on the four Riders within the tornado, hitting them from all angles as sparks erupted from their armor, greatly damaging all four of them. Double was powerless even with their Prism Sword and Bicker Shield in their hands, OOO's tried to maneuver around the tornado with his pteranodon wings, but the drag force within the tornado was proven too much for his wings to handled while Fourze and Wizard were too injured and drained to fight back. Before all four of them were spat out by the column of wind to join their pony companions on the floor in defeat.
When the winds died down, Applejack slowly stands back up despite from the lightning strike and galloped at full speed, channeling the power of her Element necklace into her forelegs to boost her already impressive strength in preparation for her attack. Meanwhile, Eddy flew straight behind Chrysalis, he saw Applejack on her way to attack and believed now was the time, there was no way Chrysalis could block an attack from the front and back at the same time. Eddy began to cock his right boof back and prepare to practically punch off Chrysalis' head. The Changeling Queen didn't bother to move as she watched Applejack get closer, while Eddy was behind her to deliver the decisive blow.
"This is for mah friends and all of Equestria!" Applejack declared as she hopped up and threw a punch with her right hoof.
But the moment she did, Applejack found her hoof going right through Chrysalis. There was no resistance whatsoever, it was if she had just punched the air. Eddy saw what happened and tried to hold the airbrakes, Applejack looked up and was shocked to see Eddy who was about to punch right at her. Thankfully the two manages to stop their perspective attacks as their hooves were inches away from each other's snout.
"Sorry about that Stetson!" Eddy apologized with a sheepish smile.
"N-No worries...partner." Applejack embarrassingly said. Just then, a shrill sonic sound wave hit both Applejack and Eddy as the two hit the metal floor hard, both holding their heads with their hooves as the sound wave attack made their ears nearly fall apart and their heads were felt like going to split open. They managed to catch a glimpse of Chrysalis fading into existence a few feet away from where her illusion was, her horn was glowing green and vibrating, showing that she was the producer of the pain inducing sound.
"Not a fan of my tunes? I thought you ponies enjoyed musical numbers? Oh well, can't please everyone." Chrysalis shrugs as she let her dark energy flow into her right fist and slammed it onto the floor. Creating a powerful wave that hit both of them like a fleet of trucks going full throttle, and like the others, the two were thrown onto the floor, joining the rest of their friends. Eventually Rainbow, Pinkie, Rolf, Taro and Ed regain consciousness. Only to see Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack and Eddy crumbling weakly on the floor.
"H...Hey...what happened?" Rainbow asked.
"We're getting our hind quarters kicked! That's what!" Duncan exclaimed.
"Are we, really losing?" Pinkie said in fear.
"From the looks of it, I'm afraid so." Taro concluded.
"NO! The proud son of shepherd refuses to the submission of failure!" said the frustrate Rolf.
Ed then saw Eddy's crumbling in pain as he grip his head tightly "Eddy are you okay?" he asked worriedly.
"Ed! My head hurts a lot! Can ya keep it down!?" said the brain wrecked Eddy.
Eddward concernly looked at his pals and Twilight's friends along with the four Riders, seeing that he, Duncan, Twilight and Gaim are the only one's standing. Kouta wasn't going to lie, he was scared, he was the newest Rider among them and Chrysalis just beat all four of his predecessors with ease, even at the height of their power, they were no match against her. In fact, Kouta would go as far as to say that she was stronger than the Inves Overlords and himself, along with the rest of the Armored Riders from his home city Zawame. He and his friends back home were already having trouble fighting against the Inves and Helheim, so what chance did he have against his literal monster? He began to shake a little, but Kouta took another look around, the ponies of both Ponyville and the Arayan Kingdom, plus the prince of the Arayan Kingdom and the princess who summoned them here. They were counting on the Riders to help them, to save their lives and their world.
Gaim shook off his nerves away as he scratch the small DJ disc table on his firearm as it emits Japanese rapid war horn sounds before he fires several machine gun like bullets at Chrysalis. But she tanked all of the firing rounds like a few cotton balls.
Seeing that it won't get him anywhere, Gaim drew out his Musou Saber. He flipped the DJ Gun around and inserts the blade of his Musou Saber into the barrel of the gun, combing the two weapons into one massive sword mode with the handled of the DJ Gun shot out a large and sharp blade "You're not going to win, Chrysalis!" Gaim declared as he placed the Kachidoki Lockseed onto the side of his DJ Gun.
LOCK ON!
1, 10, 100, 1000, 10 000! MURYŌDAISŪ: KACHIDOKI CHARGE!
The blade of the DJ Gun ignited with orange flames, Gaim let out a battle cry as he charged for Chrysalis. Chrysalis decided to meet the attack head on and formed a large sword construct made of violet energy and flames. The two attacks met in the middle, creating a powerful shockwave that rocked the entire room. Gaim pushed against Chrysalis' blade, using all his might to win for his friends and for their worlds. Chrysalis did not flinch before this attack, as powerful as it was, it was no match for her. To show just how futile Gaim's efforts were, she parried the blade upwards, and slashed horizontally. The construct blade pierced through the DJ Gun, slicing it in half before it exploded into pieces before Gaim. Undeterred, Gaim reached behind his back and brandished his two Kachidoki flags. The twin flags energized with blazing energy as Gaim began his attack on Chrysalis, slashing downwards with the first flag and then up with the next, but the Changeling Queen was still too quick for Gaim to land a decisive blow on her.
"Just give up already Rider, this whole fight is pointless." The Changeling Queen
"Maybe to you! But not to ME!" Gaim thrust forward with his flag. His speed somehow increases to the point that his thrust caught Chrysalis off guard. The attack grazed her right cheek, burning her and making the insect hiss with pain. Chrysalis growled angrily as she slapped both of Gaim's flags from his hands with her sword and followed up with a few quick slashes. Sparks flew from his armor with each hit before she kicks right at Gaim's stomach away from her, making the Armored Rider skid backwards and fell on one knee before his allies.
Gaim then remembers something back when Kaito came to their aid against the Kaijin grunts so that he and the others could reach to Chrysalis and Retsu. Kaito gave him a very bizarre bronze Lockseed! He pull out the bronze Lockseed and reminisce his semi-rival's aid.
"It's a pick me up from Sagara." Baron explained to Kouta "He said you might find it meaningful. Much to my dismay." He said.
Gaim recalled Baron's comment back before, seeing that there are no other options. He tried to unlock the Lockseed, only...nothing happens.
"Huh?" Gaim said in confusion as he again tries to click the Lockseed to open, but still nothing happens "How...could this be!?" said the shocked Rider, seeing that this Lockseed is utterly useless.
When suddenly he felt a hand grasped around his neck and held him up high, he now realized that he's under Chrysalis's mercy "It seems that whatever it is you intended have failed!" she mocked as she throws a punch right at Gaim's face with enough force to nearly crack his mask in half and send him flying, before helplessly rolling on the floor.
"Kouta!" Twilight shouted in fear as she, Eddward and Duncan looked on in worry. While the others felt just as powerless to do anything.
"Look at all of you, this is what the 'Magic of Friendship' gets you. You've become weak, all of you, relying on your so called 'friends' for help instead of relying on your own strength! Look at the power I've obtained, not by trusting, but by manipulating! And with a little experimentation, that 'friendship' was turned on its head and made you all enemies, heck, one of you even killed one of your friends!" Chrysalis mocked.
Fluttershy whimpered a little at the memory still fresh in her mind, earning a mad growl from Eddward.
"All that matters in the end is POWER! Power to make anyone and anything bend to YOUR will. All creatures fear power, no matter who wields it and bow their heads before it! Friendship is nothing but a crutch, because in the end, they'll betray you and you'll be weaker when it happens. But it makes it much easier to do the backstabbing when you yourself were never trusting to begin with! Face it, all of you have lost! Where is your 'Magic of Friendship' now?! Now that all of you are inches away from death, tell me, what's so great about relying on weak friends that only make you weaker?!" Chrysalis demanded in a taunting matter.
While laying on the floor, Gaim thought back to the time before Zawame City was overrun with the threat of the Helheim forest. All of his friends were dancing and having fun, having some good and bad times. Even the most recent days, when no one believed him that Yggdrasil was going to cull the human race in an effort to stop the invasion of Helheim. His friends stood by him, Mai, Mitsuzane and their Team Gaim, while the other Beat Riders and yes, even Kaito at one point were enemies, but now they're allies, friends. The fact that he gave this Lockseed to him was proof enough, despite it being useless in the end.
It was friendship that made them stronger, their bonds that allowed them to stand up against the harshness of the world, including the revelation of Kouta accidentally ending the life of a friend he was searching for. In hindsight, it was probably a mercy killing, Yuya the former leader of his Team was turned into an Inves, with no control over his actions he could seriously hurt people. Kouta would have never know if Yuya was grateful for his actions or was spiteful. But if Yuya had asked for his friend Kouta, he would have ended his suffering, and freed him from that prison.
"I feel sorry for you, Chrysalis…"
The Changeling Queen looked at Gaim as if he had lost his mind "Excuse me? YOU feel sorry for ME?" she yelled.
Gaim slowly manage to stand back up, despite the damage he took as he glared at his foe. "You've never known what it's like to have a friend, someone you can rely and trust on. You think having friends make us weak, but you couldn't be more wrong! Having friends gives us something to fight for, not just to obtain power and prizes, but when you fight for your friends, for the lives of others, it makes you stronger than ever before!" Gaim pointed his finger at Chrysalis as he continued "The power you wield is as hollow as you are Chrysalis, and it's nothing compared to the power we wield. So in a way yes! I do pity you! Because you will never understand what Friendship is all about!" he determinedly stated.
Eddward was in awe at Gaim's proclaim, despite being from a different world, he understands the value of having friends and fellows by their side. Twilight smiled upon hearing Kouta's speech, somehow it reinvigorated her deep inside.
Chrysalis began to grow furious as her dark power enveloped her body. "YOU...PITY...ME?! HOLLOW POWER?!" The Changeling Queen said as she raised both hands above her as she created a massive ball of dark energy "TELL ME, IS THIS HOLLOW?!" Chrysalis roared as she hurled the sphere right at Gaim.
"KOUTA!" Twilight shouted as she dashed with all her might towards the Rider.
"PRINCESS TWILIGHT!" Eddward yells as he too ran to catch up to the princess.
"EDDWARD NO!" Fluttershy screech as she tries to reach her hoof out to him, but to no avail as she was still too injured to stand back up.
Twilight finally made it to Gaim's side, but now she didn't know what to do and Eddward catches up to the two. Twilight's magic was low, not strong enough to fire a counter beam, not strong enough to form a shield, and definitely not strong enough to teleport any of them anywhere. Eddward however was too caught up by the immense attack that was heading towards them, he was like a deer staring at headlights. Even still, the two Alicorns weren't going anywhere and neither was Kouta. They stand their ground to the bitter end no matter what happened.
AND CUT! Sorry about another cliffhanger, I just thought it would be even more epic if the conclusion to the battle will be resolved in the next chapter. Besides I don't want to write even more words than the previous chapter, I thought it would be better if you guys got a short break from reading more than 8 to 9 thousand words in one chapter since Damnlastword's chapters are much shorter in comparison.
Anyways, don't worry everyone. I promised all of you that the next chapter will be the conclusion to this fight once and for all. Only a few chapters left before this story will finally be ended. So hang on a bit longer everybody!
Please comment, review and gave any feedbacks! Until then.
