Reviews:

Toa Solaric: Trust me, it's gonna be epic.

Shooting Star Dragon 3000: We thank you! We had to improve it a bit to make this more awesome.

Shadowmwape: Wow, glad to know that. smiles

WeAreTheWord: Hell yeah, we did.

sonicflash78: Please don't open the can of worms that is 'which is the stronger OOO form', it's a big headache. 1: Yeah, I think if there was a more open mind of using Kamen Rider Manga to turn into an anime, sure. And for Tokime? Yeah, I'd like to see her become a Rider, we did so in our Zi-O Revised series. 2: Never again, V-Cinemas are hard to write and we have to come up with original plots for them. 3: ...Have you not seen the library of stories Grey and I have collaborated together on?

darthwolf: Hell yeah, dude. nods

KuroKit: Oh please, Tendo's on a whole other level.

KamenRiderULTRA: Glad you've liked the story; as for Revice? It's an 8/10 show for us. I like it, it broke the trend of 'Pink Rider show hate' I've had for a few years now.

MKDemiGodzilla-Warrior: We went ham with the insert songs. And Eji has been afraid of snakes as he revealed it in the show, he saw the Unagi candroids and was freaked out by them.

Here are some reviews answered by our own GreyKing46:

Gremory D. Kelvin: No. We do not do Revised stories for shows we like. It is why we will not do a Kuuga, Double or OOO (as in the main series) Revised. Zero One was an exception, since the shows last third dipped in quality because of COVID and it was supposed to just be a fun difference after doing Zi-O.

MKDemiGodzilla-Warrior: It was supposed to just be the chorus of each song. But Ghost got a bit carried away, so Gotta Keep It Real and Right On Right Time went a bit longer than they should of.

darthwolf: Form rushes are badass. There was a reason they hired Koichi Sakamoto to direct the opening cinematic of Memory of Heroez.

Raven Soriano: Dude. These are supposed to be reviews, not reaction videos. Knock it off.

And as for your comment? Yes it is Ghost's fic. It is on his profile. But it is a collaborative work on every level. Giving all the praise to just one of us, either of us, is insulting to the other. It is like saying Shoutaro does all the work as Double.

Shadowmwape: Same. And another reason for shipping brain.

Shooting Star Dragon 3000: Thank you. Gotta show the love to every form

Author's note:

Hi guys, Ghost here. Well, we're on the last chapter of this 4 part story. Thanks for staying with us, next week is my birthday so I'll be taking that week off, but we'll be back with Kamen Rider Zero-One Revised once again.

We arrive... during the middle of an intense showdown.

Eiji Hino, Kamen Rider OOO, stood there in his TaToBa Combo. In his hands, were the three medals that belonged to the dinosaur combo. Ptera, Tricera, Tyranno. He had allied himself with the Greeed beyond his friend Ankh, Mezool, Kazari, Uva and Gamel. With the help of the five Greeed he had access to his full abilities as OOO. And none of it worked against Goda.

Goda had gained his own form based off the TaToBa combo. Using a newly made OOODriver as well as the new Falcon, Byacko and Locus medals, he became a bronze, silver and gold version of TaoToBa. His power was terrifying, and his pure desire allowed him to heal from any damage that Eiji caused.

Despite using everything within his arsenal, Eiji could not keep the King down.

And so, using some trickery, he was on his last resort. Swiping these three medals from Goda's body, his last chance.

"Eiji... Stop! What the hell are you thinking?!" Ankh yelled in horror as the Greeed all looked on in shock and fear.

They all... They all remembered what those Medals did. What they could do.

And Ankh... He remembered what those medals did to Eiji.

Chink!

"I know."

Chink!

"Exactly what."

Chink!

"I'm doing." Eiji smiled as he finished slotting each Medal. "Henshin."

PTERA

TRICERA

TYRANNO!

Ice began to form around Eiji as the sounds of terrible beasts roared from the OOO Driver and Scanner. The screech of a Pterodactyl, the growl of a Triceratops...and the roar of a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

PU-TO-TYRANNOSAURUS!

The ground itself became a frozen tundra, causing Goda to back up as he could *feel* the terror this combo could create...after all, he held onto them.

Eiji's black bodysuit turned white-grey, the armour was mostly made of purple metal; his kneecaps were styled like T-Rex heads, plated shin guards, hexagonal ankle guards and clawed feet for his shoes. Purple circuits went up from his legs to the centre of his chest, where the OLung was a golden ring with a purple marked centre and the black background depicting the pterodactyl, triceratops and tyrannosaurus. On his shoulders were heavy octagon-covered purple guards with two golden triceratops horns, his bracers were triceratops heads with green eyes and golden horns and black gloves. And lastly was his helmet, still back but now bore the outstretched wings of the pterodactyl with a golden beak and emerald-green visor eyes.

CRASH!

Eiji's roar shook the surrounding area, terrifying the Greeed and Goda as this form wasn't one of Desire...but Destruction.

flash!

Eiji Hino blinked as he found himself within a deep black emptiness, without his Rider armour.

It was the deep void that nothing existed, the darkness that came before and after all things. But now, there was something within it. Eiji.

Suddenly memories were flashing before his eyes, memories that nearly threw him to his knees.

Memories of war. Of agony. Of death.

Trapped on flames and rubble, trying to reach out and save ANYONE... And failing as that innocent girl was absorbed in flames.

Memories of what brought him into depression and drained away his desires.

...

But also. Memories that made him who he was.

"I know... What you want. An empty host. Again." Eiji muttered, talking to the nothingness "But... I have forgiven myself for back then. I'm not the same as I was ten years ago when you first found me. Even by the end... You gave me what I needed. You and Ankh."

The darkness almost seemed to growl at him, the memories becoming 'louder'

"That memory... Those times... They still are with me. They are still who I am." Eiji panted "But I won't hurt myself over them anymore. Instead, I refuse to let those memories become a new present. My -desire- can be summed up... As power."

Again, another growl filled the darkness. This time, louder.

"The power to push through anything in my way. To help whoever is within my reach with all the power I have." Eiji continued, his eyes almost glowing as a purple aura flowed around him "You are an empty void of desire, right? At least that's what people say. Well... Let's see how much of MY desire you can handle!"

A roar, almost accepting his challenge, echoed out as the purple aura flowed into the darkness... And Eiji's aura grew, only to shrink as it was absorbed before growing again.

"Come on! Have at me! Take it all!" Eiji roared.

Flash

After the mighty roar... Kamen Rider OOO, PuToTyra combo just... Stood there. Almost limp.

Its head lowered.

"E-Eiji?" Ankh whispered in shock, seeing the destructive PuToTyra unmoving and limp.

"Tch. What a fool." Goda laughed as he grabbed the Medajaribur off the ground "Leaving himself open... For the final blow!" He raised the sword above his head, ready to strike.

...

But he didn't even get to move his arm.

OOO had moved his hand up quickly, grabbing Goda's wrist, holding it in place. Followed by a sudden and harsh palm to the chest, and then an axe kick that left Goda spinning but also had Goda drop the sword.

The Greeed watched on in shock and awe. That... Should not have been possible! PuToTyra was a wild berserker that Eiji could barely control at the best of times, acting more like a beast. It shouldn't be able to use actually, logical, fighting techniques like that! Unless...

"SUBARASHI!" Kougami cheered "Eiji... Has tamed the power of the dinosaur medals! Or at least three of them! This... is truly amazing!"

"Where the hell have you been?!" Kazari snapped at Kougami.

"Wh-what is this?" Goda grunted as tried to get back up, seeing Eiji take control of the Dinosaur Medals.

"THIS is MY desire!" Eiji said proudly as he stood tall "Now... IT'S TIME TO GO WILD!" he roared, his movements becoming more animalistic. But by choice. The tamed power flowing through him, and the hero going with the flow.

Pu-to-ti-ra, Pu-to-Tiranosaurusu!

"Kick his butt, OOO!" Gamel cheered.

Pu-to-ti-ra, Pu-to-Tiranosaurusu!

Eiji's stomped forwards and launched himself right into Goda.

Tsuyoku nareba naru hodo Nani no tame ni chikara

Tsukau beki ka Judge ga Juuyou ni naru sa (Kimi jishin no)

Goda saw this and attempted to block it, feeling Eiji's fist connect onto his claws and felt his inner core shake with the impact.

Furikazashite Kyoufu de Subete te ni iretara… (Machigau na!)

Inoru hito no Nakami wa Tada no egoist (Sou darou?)

As Eiji slammed his fist into Goda again and again and again, he eventually spun around. Eiji's tailcoats combine into a large giant purple dinosaur tail. The tail smacked into Goda, sending him flying and screaming.

Sono shunkan Nomikomareru

Dark sideno kiken na yokubou!

"This is... Kinda terrifying." Mezool admitted.

"Yeah. But... Also cathartic." Uva nodded.

"It's satisfying seeing someone else get their medals kicked in by this form." Kazari agreed.

"OOO! OOO! OOO!" Gamel cheered.

"GRAAAAH!" Eiji roared as his helmet grew and suddenly, he had a large pair of dinosaur wings coming off his back/wings, the dinosaur rider rushing into battle once more.

POWER to TEARER Kokoro no tsuyosa

Goda stumbled as he tried to regain his footing, only to grunt as he was tackled and dragged into the air by Eiji "Let... Me down you fool!" He snarled.

Tattaima Tamesareru toki

"Okay." Eiji answered with a smirk.

Hakaisha wo shugosha ni kaeru Sono negai de control

SLAM!

Eiji threw Goda down into the ground with a fierce throw, causing a crater.

POWER to TEARER Saa tenazukero

Eiji came rushing down and landed right next to Goda, slamming his hand into the ground and ripping an axe out of it.

Goda's eyes widened in horror as he saw it, the axe that could cleave through any Cell Medal.

Taiko kara tsuzuku chikara wo

The axe came down on his body, causing his OLung to become exposed, a purple streak of energy leaving the axe.

Sono karada ni matou no nara Kuu ka kuwareru ka no mission

Goda tried to defend himself, but the blade of the axe was sharp and heavy, serrated like a Tyranno's maw as it cleaved into his body.

Wow... POWER to TEARER

The Medagabryu, the personal weapon of the purple medals!

'This strength! I have to. Have to escape!' Goda thought as he tried to free himself from Eiji.

Pu-to-ti-ra, Pu-to-Tiranosaurusu!

Pu-to-ti-ra, Pu-to-Tiranosaurusu!

Itsumo toori Onnaji houhou ja itsuka wa (Kangaero)

Oikomarete Tomadoi Sonogo dou suru? (Nigeru na!)

Goda gave a mighty kick to Eiji's chest, the legs quickly becoming their locust-like state and giving a powerful blow. Sending the violent form back, as Goda attempted to run away.

Ichi ka bachi ka Saigo no shudan Tamesu toki darou Kiken wo okashi

Attempted, being the keyword. As the triceratops-like pauldrons of his shoulders unleashed spikes, rushing through the air and stabbing into Goda's back making him scream in agony.

"Ouch. Yeah, that hurts." Kazari whispered.

"Same." Uva nodded.

POWER to TEARER Idomu no naraba

SCANNING CHARGE!

"GRAAAAAH!" Eiji called, flapping his wings once more, ice rushing across the ground and over Goda

"I forgot this form used ice." Mezool noted, holding her chin "Hehehe. Coincidences."

Kasuka demo Hikari wa aru sa

Seigyo funou na genjitsu mo Chance wa aru minogasu na

Spinning around, Eiji's tailcoats combined into a giant tail once more and SMASHED into Goda.

shatter!

The vile King was sent crashing to the floor, growling and groaning.

POWER to TEARER Nejifusete miro

"I won't-won't lose!" Goda growled as he tried to stand, Eiji rushing at him... and began to slash away, cutting into Goda with the Medagabryu again and again and again.

Abaredasu Michi no chikara wo

Jibun no mono ni dekita toki Tsugi no stage ni yukeru

"GAAAAH!" Goda yelled, as his form rippled from the Invincible Combo's strikes. Cell medal's flying everywhere... or so he thought.

Eiji gave one final slash that knocked Goda back once more, the dark king scanning his driver.

"My desires... are infinite!" he yelled.

Wow… POWER to TEARER

SCANNING DESTROY!

Goda jumped into the air, still leaking a few Medals, as he prepared to launch his kick. Dark energy flowing around him... which was when he noticed.

Mune no naka ni aru Negai ya yume wo kataku tsuyoku mamorun da

Korekara kimi ga susumu Mirai Miushinau na

The Cell medals flying through the air, being absorbed INTO the Medagabryu's blade!

Eventually, Eiji grabbed the handle at the back of the Medagabryu's tyrannosaurus head and slammed it closed.

Gabu!

Then, grabbing the bottom of the handle he twisted it down 90 degrees... the handle at the back of the Medagabryu and the handle at the front turning the weapon into a cannon.

POWER to TEARER Kokoro no tsuyosa

"N-No..." Goda whispered.

"The big one!" Gamel cheered.

Tattaima Tamesareru toki

Hakaisha wo shugosha ni kaeru Sono negai de control

PU! TO! TYRANNO! HISSATSU~!

A massive burst of purple energy filled the air, larger than a double-decker bus. The energy rushed through the streets, digging up the ground below him slightly as it flew into the air.

POWER to TEARER Nejifusete miro

Abaredasu Michi no chikara wo

"GAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Goda screamed as he was enveloped by the attack, trying to cover himself.

But the attack grew bigger, bigger and bigger.

Jibun no mono ni dekita toki Tsugi no stage ni yukeru

Eiji's purple armoured feet dug into the ground, the warrior snarling as he kept the attack going for several more moments until eventually...

Wow... POWER to TEARER

He stopped. Eiji grasped the weapon to his side as the attack ended.

Wowwow... PUTOTYRA

And Goda was gone!

Pu-to-ti-ra, Pu-to-Tiranosaurusu!

Pu-to-ti-ra, Pu-to-Tiranosaurusu!

"I did it... it's over..." Eiji panted with a smile, falling to his knees as his transformation ended.

"Yay! Goda's gone! Goda's gone!" Gamel cheered.

"He did it!" Kazari cheered happily.

"Alright!" Uva fist bumped.

"He did it, Gamel!" Mezool cheered, hugging him.

"Hehe... it's finally over." Eiji smiled, turning to the group ... And screamed, as Ankh tackled him. The vagabond rolled out of the way at the last second.

"Have you lost your damn mind?!" Ankh snapped "You know what those medals do! What happened last time? Why?!"

"Ankh! Ankh, calm down!" Eiji laughed.

"YOU'RE LAUGHING? YOU DAMN IDIOT!" Ankh yelled, jumping at Eiji to try and strangle him

Kougami laughed in the background, grinning down at the sight before him.

"Shouldn't we... Stop them or something?" Uva blinked in confusion.

"No, no, this is how they are. Their friendship." Kougami said proudly.

"Tch. Weirdos." Uva scoffed.

"I know, right." Kazari nodded.

"Hehe. Who would have guessed." Mezool chuckled as she folded her arms.

"Mezool?" Gamel asked, the other two Greeed looking at her in confusion.

"So many new water medals. A new aquatic combo called the Sea King Combo." Mezool listed off "And an ice form. Ice being another form of water. And then the purple form, the form that most closely represents OOO-boy himself, being an ice form as well. It is almost like fate has a large neon sign pointing down."

...

"You know. I don't want to agree with Goda... But gross." Uva blinked.

"Oh, be quiet you overgrown cockroach." Mezool snapped, walking towards Eiji and Ankh.

"Hey! Don't you dare insult me like that!" Uva snapped and chased after her.

"Well, let's deal with this then." Kazari huffed and followed the two.

"Mezool! Wait for me!" Gamel yelled and ran after them all.

"Cockroach. Hmm... Ideas." Kougami commented, writing away on a piece of paper.

"Alright boys. That's enough." Mezool commented, Ankh currently having a laughing Eiji in a headlock.

"Tch. Whatever." Ankh snapped, throwing Eiji to the ground.

"Oh, I missed moments like that." Eiji admitted, grinning. He rolled onto his back... And blinked in wonder as he looked up at Mezool.

"Miss me, OOO-Boy?" Mezool teased, flickering with blue light as she reverted to her Greeed form. Surely this would snap him out of his stupor. Her Greeed form... it was not human, obviously. While she was a woman-shaped humanoid, that was where the similarities ended. Her body appeared to be wearing, or rather made of, black leathery material with black heeled boots, silver arrow-shaped edged black shin guards with suction cup studs, up along her tight fitted black legs were even more suction cup studs in two lines that went to her waist, a silvery-white stomach and crotch area, the silver and gold belt around her stomach with the yellow jewel in the centre of her chest which resembled a pair of D-Cup breasts and a silvery blue eel wrapped around her neck and went between the cleavage. A dark-silver-blue cloak with ocean markings, a fin-styled popped collar with octopus tentacles down at the bottom of the cloak that went to her legs. And finally, her head, more aquatic-creature styled, a silver chin and mouth, purple visor-eyes on a grey head with an orca merged on top with two small red eyes. Such an inhuman form? Eiji would not be distracted by how attractive her human form was.

"Beautiful," Eiji admitted, shocking the female Greeed. And Ankh himself. But ever since Eiji saw Mezool as a woman and not just as someone to fight or help... Honestly, she was. Her wide hips but thin waist, her long legs and slightly plump thighs. And so much more. Despite being what most people would see as a monster... Eiji saw her as beautiful.

"That... I..." Mezool stuttered for once, glad she wasn't in her human form so Eiji would not see her blush.

"Please. I'm gonna throw up." Ankh huffed, crouching next to Eiji and poking his cheek.

"Haha, very funny." Eiji laughed as he began to get to his feet, passing Ankh his Taka medal back.

"Thank you." Ankh huffed and reabsorbed it.

"You're welcome." Eiji nodded, holding out the Tora and Batta medals for Kazari and Uva respectfully "And thank you all. Truly."

"You better be thankful," Uva answered, taking it back. He glowed, returning to his Greeed form now that he had all nine of his medals together once more. He was a green armoured humanoid. Lime green feet, black plated shin guards with black polished jewel kneecaps, ridged green outer thigh guards; a leaf green-plated torso that was segmented at the pectorals and insect legs acting as ribs and a solid green stomach, in the centre of the chest was a large yellow gemstone in a silver hold. Around its waist was a silver and gold belt with a large golden buckle with a second yellow gemstone. Its arms and shoulder guards were black and dark green, with insect legs coming from the shoulders, green binding to hold the spiked bracers in place, with the right arm having a pair of light green claws as a weapon. And finally, was the head, which was insectoid in design, a silver jawline with a dirty yellow mouthguard, a large pair of visor-like green eyes, a green middle with a black forehead and top that had both antennae and stag beetle horns protruding from the top.

"You owe us big, OOO." Kazari added. With all nine of his Core Medal's back, his form glowed and he shifted back into his Greeed form. Black booted with silver studs up the shin guards and kneecaps with brass clasps with spikes holding them in place. A three-segmented body-suit colour of orange with jagged black stripes on the right-hand side, a dull white centre with grey lightning bolt markings and a black left-hand side with silver studs. Around the waist was the same silver and gold belt and buckle and in the centre of the chest was the same yellow gemstone and a silver chest piece. Strong abs for its stomach, a black open vest with bone-like studs and two black paws with extended claws over the pectorals and shoulders. Studded back bracers with brass holdings that connected to large black claw-like weapons on the backs of the creature's hands and black gloves. And finally, the head, this time feline in design; silver jawline with a bright yellow mouth, a black forehead and top that had a red outline on the nose and two red eyes, silver ring studs in the forehead, cat ears and brass-coloured dreadlocks forming from the back of the head.

"Wait!" Gamel called out. "Does this mean...we get our tenths back?" He slowly asked in realisation. He quickly turned back into his Greeed form, feeling excitement building within him. He was a large heavy-set humanoid, white toed grey boots with hexagonal plating, grey shins with heavy red and ivory white markings, grey kneecaps and thigh guards with white tusk-like markings over the top, overlapped dark-grey thigh guards that looked like a samurai's leg protection with two pairs of tusks clasping the guards around the waist. Around its stomach was the silver and gold buckle with the yellow gemstone, along with the yellow gemstone embedded into its chest. The torso itself had overlapped triangular silver plating that went down to the crotch area, red markings for what could be seen due to the density of the armour. Around the chest were heavy-looking white-grey and dark-grey plating with multiple tusks protecting the ribs, heavy dark grey shoulder guards and top upper arms. The right arm was all dark grey with more overlapped armour and bracers with elongated pentagonal protrusions at the front with a dull ivory white horn protruding from the front and grey gloves. The left arm was bone and ivory white with red markings, a large bracer with two tusk-like protrusions that were actually gun-barrels. And finally, the head, was dark grey in design with a light grey centre that looked like a trunk, two small tusks with a singular horn coming from the forehead and black visor-like eyes

"Complete... finally..." Uva whispered.

"Sure, of course, you can." Eiji smiled softly "Let's go find him."

"Eiji... is this a good idea?" Ankh frowned. "You know what these guys are like..."

"A promise is a promise, Ankh. A deal is a deal." Eiji responded, "And I think after all this, we can trust them."

"Eiji..." Ankh blinked and sighed.

rumble~!

"Did... anyone else hear that?" Kazari asked.

rumble~!

"Impossible..." Mezool muttered.

"Even PuToTyra couldn't..." Eiji whispered.

CRASH!

"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Goda roared as he burst from the ground, dark energy swirling around him as his armour began to heal "I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THESE CHILDISH GAMES!" he ranted "I AM INVINCIBLE! THE KING OVER INFINITY ITSELF! I AM THE ONE AND ONLY OOO!"

"How... HOW?!" Ankh snapped "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST STAY DEAD ALREADY!"

"Because my desire is INFINITE! And I shall prove so... NOW! As you all drown... in MY desires!" Goda roared as his medals began to glow. Gripping his OOO Scanner he roared... as Medal's came FLYING out of his body, spiralling around him. Silver rimmed medals, black-rimmed medals... and the ten original Core Medals.

"The medals!" Kazari gasped.

"GIVE THAT BACK TO MEZOOL!" Gamel roared as he saw the last blue medal, a Tako and Unagi medal, floating in the mix. He changed into his Greeed form, rushing in with the power of a rhino.

"GAMEL! STOP!" Mezool yelled out.

"YOU will be first!" Goda snarled as he slashed his Scanner through the air. Scanning the two sets of Silver Medals, one bade by Zeus and the other by Foundation X, as well as Gamel's tenth medal of a Sai medal.

SAI!

GORILLA!

ZOU!

SAI!

GORILLA!

ZOU!

SAI!

A silver aura began to surround Goda as Gamel approached... and he began to yell, the powerful Greeed screaming as he began to break apart.

"WHAT?!" the others yelled.

"He's being absorbed..." Uva muttered in horror, seeing the Cell and Core Medals being ripped right out of Gamel.

"Wait... is Goda going to become that dice thing?!" Kazari gasped in a sudden panic.

"No. Goda's desire is too strong. And if he can control these medals... it may all be over." Kougami said in genuine fear.

"Gamel! No!" Mezool screamed only for Eiji to grab her "NO! LET ME GO!"

"It's too late, he's almost all gone!" Eiji called to her "But don't worry! We'll save him! I promise!"

"GAMEL!" Mezool screamed.

"Mezoooooo-" Gamel tried to speak, reaching out to her, before his medals were fully absorbed into the OLung on Goda's chest.

"Gamel... no..." she mumbled, falling to her knees.

"We have to get the other medals fast!" Ankh yelled.

"Right!" Uva frowned, flashing into his Greeed form alongside Ankh and Kazari.

"The world is where I will be keeping all my stuff, I don't want it gone!" Kazari snapped before speeding out.

"GAH!" Uva roared, unleashing lightning as Ankh took to the sky.

"HAHAHAHA! JUST TRY! SOON, YOU WILL ALL BE MY FOOD!" Goda laughed. "I AM MORE THAN I WAS ALL THOSE YEARS AGO! IT IS TIME... FOR ME TO BECOME A GOD!"

GAH!" Uva yelled, almost grabbing one of his medals only for the force of the storm of Cell Medals to throw him back.

"I don't think so!" Eiji snarled, grabbing the three purple medals.

"Hehehehe... just try!" Goda laughed, scanning the seven other purple medals as well as the copy set made by Zeus.

P-P-P-PTERA!

T-T-TRICERA!

T-T-TYRANNO!

"GAH!" Eiji yelped out, feeling the three Purple medals literally ripping themselves out of his hand. He flinched, holding his bleeding hand. The metal of the Medals almost breaking his fingers.

Goda laughed as the twelve dinosaur medals rushed into his body.

'There!' Ankh thought, his avian vision allowing him to see an opening. Throwing his arm forth, he unleashed a pillar of fire. The flames slammed against the original Taka medal. Said red medal went flying and smashed into the Foundation X Taka Medal, the Foundation X Condor Medal, the Zeus Taka Medal and the Zeus Kujaku medal. It was like a pinball effect, throwing the four medals in the way of the Purple Medals as they were being sucked into Goda...

SHATTER!

And the four Medals where literally ripped apart by the ferocious medals, the medals turning to stone as the artificial medal's Core Energy escaped.

'That is some victory at least.' Ankh thought.

'I... I want to live! I want to live!' Uva thought, shooting lightning at Goda. Trying to break through the barrier of Medal's 'I want to live! I want to be complete! Because... Because I want to experience life! Because I have a family with my fellow Greeed! I won't let him take it from me again!'

'I want power.' Kazari thought as he kept rushing through the storm of Medals. Trying to grab SOMETHING. Only to keep missing. The force of pure desire too much 'I want power... so I will never be afraid! So that no one will abandon me! I know now... the others won't! Not unless I abandon them in my scheming! I've missed this until now... but we are stronger *together*! I won't let them down!'

"What..." Ankh blinked as he felt a... warmth from Kazari and Uva. A warmth he himself felt a few times, and from Eiji and others. A realisation of the truth of their desires.

"Give me back... MY GAMEL!" Mezool roared as she got to her feet, unleashing all the water in the nearby area on Goda. Busting pipes, shattering them, condensing them into weapons and using it all as weapons to try and rip Goda apart "HE IS MY SON! HOW DARE YOU TAKE HIM FROM ME?! GIVE! HIM! BACK!"

"Hehehe... This is SO interesting!" Goda laughed "But don't worry! Soon, you will all join him!"

KUWA-KUWAGATA!

KA-KAMAKIRI!

BA-BA-BATTA!

"W-What?!" Uva grunted as he dug his feet into the ground, trying to hold himself back. And yet... it felt like Goda himself was a living magnet, drawing him in! "I can't... can't stop myself!" he grunted.

LI-LION!

TOR-TOR-TORA!

CHEE-CHEETAH!

"N-NO!" Kazari hissed, tripping as he suddenly felt himself being dragged back. He tried to grab the ground, his claws digging into it as he was pulled away "NO! NO! STOP! OOO, SAVE ME!"

"W-What?!" Mezool gasped in horror as she stopped her assault, seeing how useless it was as her heels dug into the ground a bit.

"Uva! Kazari!" Eiji yelled out in horror. He was holding his hand in agony; it had been the hand he used to hold the OOOScanner. He could barely hold the scanner, let alone scan anything. It was like the ability to use his medals was literally dragged away. He felt despair fill him as he got to his feet "Goda, stop this!"

"HAHAHAHAHA!" Goda just laughed, as Uva and Kazari were breaking down.

"OOO... stop him!" Uva ordered "Stop this madman and free us!"

"Y-Yeah OOO! Do it! We know you can!" Kazari added, the two yelling as they were finally absorbed.

"NO!" Ankh roared "Goda, you BASTARD!"

"Don't worry Ankh, I'll save you for last." Goda smirked darkly, slashing the scanner over the aquatic medals now.

SH-SH-ACHI!

UN-UNAGI!

TA-TAKO!

"GAH!" Mezool gasped out, grabbing her chest.

"Mezool!" Eiji yelled out.

"Stop him... OOO-Boy... save my Gamel..." Mezool begged "Please..."

"I... I promise." Eiji frowned sadly, unable to do anything as Mezool faded.

"And now... ANHK!" Goda laughed; scanning... three Red medals. The original Taka, the Foundation X Kujaku and the Zeus Condor.

TAKA!

KUJAKU!

CONDOR!

"Hrr..." Ankh hissed as he felt a pull... and flew back, rushing to Eiji's side "That won't work on me, Goda. That pull is weak." he hissed.

"Fine then. I will take your power the old-fashioned way. *Henshin.*" Goda said darkly, scanning his still scanning scanner over his belt once more.

FALCON!

BYAKKO!

LOCUST!

"Ah~!" Goda sighed, spreading his arms wide as his head fell back.

PUTOTYRA!

GATAKIRIBA!

LATORATAH!

SAGOZO!

SHAUTA!

FABYALO!

Six large, glowing, symbols filled the air. The symbols of the six combos, spiralling around him before they all flew back into Goda. Merging into the King's body as his armour began to shimmer, glow and grow. His right forearm armour began to glow, suddenly shifting to the green armour with a long blade going back. For just a second, it had become one of the Kamakiri forearm armours. But then it shifted back, turning back into a Tora armour only... differently. The black around the edges of the yellow armour turned purple, the blades turned silver while growing longer and becoming more curved. Purple markings cover the blade. His left arm remained Tora, changing from the Whtie Tiger to the standard version, but gained the same changes as the other arm.

GODA~!

Goda's left leg shifted into one of the Tako Legs, the right shifting into a Zou leg. Only for these to also shift back, becoming the Batta legs. Only these legs were all silver, with spikes and purple detailing going down the shins and along the toe of the boot.

His shoulder armour morphed, turning into large curved black pillars with the colours of the four Greeed flowing up the two shoulders. The left one was blue and the bottom and green at the top, while the right spike had silver at the bottom and flowed to yellow at the top.

The symbol on the OLung began to morph, change, and mutate. The symbol on the OLung shifted from a normal symbol, into an almost mocking visage of what he had done. An image showing stylised side profiles of the four Greeed, blending together as they curved around in a ring across the chest symbol.

GODA!

Finally, Goda's mask began to change. The eyes shifted from red to yellow, the bronze falcon visage shifting into a deep purple colour and... grow. An armoured, jutting, mouth plate formed up at the front. A pair of curved horns flowed out of the top, curving menacingly, while a single bladed spike with two red gems emerged from the centre of his forehead. Two large purple blades came jutting out of his jaw, looking almost like pincers, as two long and flowing streaks of 'cloth' emerged from under his jaw. the 'cloth' flowing decoratively down Goda's front, stopping once they had past the OOODriver on his waist.

"Ah~! This... is true perfection!" Goda said as he let out a sigh, clenching and unclenching his fists as he inspected his new form.

"No way..." Eiji muttered as he got to his feet.

"Eiji. You need to transform, or we are dead!" Ankh hissed as he reverted to his human form, holding up his three medals "Just transform already!"

"Ankh... I... no! Not those!" Eiji yelled, pushing Ankh's hand aside.

"What the hell?!" Ankh snapped "Am I not good enough to work with anymore or some shit?!"

"No, Ankh. Damn it, it's not that..." Eiji grumbled at his friend's reaction.

"Then what?!" Ankh snapped.

"The last two times I used your medals, that was it." Eiji shot back "I am scared... that all this will be for nothing. That if I use your medals... you'll be gone again."

"Eiji... you damn IDIOT!" Ankh snapped, grabbing Eiji by the shirt... only for Eiji to nearly collapsing against him "Eiji?" he blinked.

"I'm... I'm fine." Eiji panted "Just... need a second."

'He's exhausted.' Ankh realised 'Just now he has done a rush with five full combos. And that is not counting the fight with Goda before then, with the artificial medals. And the constant fighting he has been doing since he awoke from a COMA. Eiji is at his limit. This... this is bad!'

"How sweet." Goda said as he looked at the two, holding his hand up as purple energy surrounding it. Several dozen Cell Medals surrounded him, almost spinning like a tornado, before throwing his hand out at Eiji and Ankh. Unleashing a massive burst of energy at the two of them.

"EIJI!" Ankh yelled, wrapping an arm around his friend and pulling him down.

KABOOM!

A massive energy burst filled the air, explosions and flames washing over the area. And when it died down... Eiji stood tall. Eiji's hair was larger, even fluffier, than normal with some blonde streaks running through it alongside some small red flicks at the very back. And finally... his left arm was replaced by Ankh's.

"Oh~ You combined?" Goda asked with a laugh and a smirk "What an... interesting idea. But do you fools actually believe combining your measly power would be enough to stop me?"

Eiji-Ankh looked up, looking into Goda's yellow eyes... and not reacting. Standing almost... like a statue.

"Are... are you two IGNORING me?!" Goda snapped, growling.

...

Nothing.

Eiji-Ankh continued to be silent.

"Grrr!" Goda snarled as he raised his hand, preparing to unleash his attack "How dare you insult a GOD!" he snapped, throwing the attack out.

flash!

As time seemed to pause, Eiji and Ankh were standing back-to-back. Standing in an endless white void, with glowing red energy flickering all around them.

"Eiji... you are an idiot." Ankh snapped.

"I know." Eiji sighed, his head falling back.

"What good is my being here, if we die and everyone dies?" Ankh asked.

"I just didn't want to lose my best friend again." Eiji muttered, "Especially when all of this is my fault."

"Damn right it is." Ankh laughed "Should have left me dead!"

"With that attitude, maybe I should have!" Eiji snapped before going quiet.

...

"Hey, Eiji?" Ankh asked.

"What?"

"I... am happy I chose you. All those years ago." Ankh said softly.

"Yeah... me to."

...

The two stood there. No more words needed to be said. Not after all they had been through. Not after everything they had done. Not after how well they knew one another.

"Ankh?"

"What?"

"Fight with me... one last time?" Eiji asked as he finally turned around.

"Ha. Like hell I should after everything you've done." Ankh scoffed... before turning around himself, smirking "And yet... I can't say no to my friend."

"Ankh." Eiji sighed in relief before holding out his hand "Ready?"

"Of course." the bird Greed nodded, slamming his palm against Eiji's. The two's hands clasped as they grinned at one another. A rainbow light filled the void.

flash

Eiji-Ankh's eyes snapped open, glowing ethereal wings sprouting from their back as the fused entity jumped and rushed through the air. Dodging the attack, Eiji-Ankh landed as their wings faded away

"So, you ARE alive." Goda glared

"Eiji/Ankh." The two spoke together as they raised Ankh's hand, the three Avian medals in their palm. Taka, Kujaku and Condor "This is our wish." They said together, clenching the medals... as they began to glow.

"What?!" Goda gasped.

"Impossible..." Kougami whispered as Eiji-Ankh opened their hand and revealed... that the medals had transformed. The animal images on the medals were now highlighted by a rainbow detailing, making the animals stand out even greater against the red Crystalline material.

"This... is our wish." Eiji-Ankh spoke as they used their right hand, grasping the evolved Condor Medal and slotting it into place as the Leg medal.

chink!

"Our battle." Eiji-Ankh continued, grabbing the evolved Kujaku Medal into the body medal slot.

chink!

"Eiji/Ankh." The fusion said, the two's overlapping voices most clear now as they looked at the evolved Taka Medal. Remembering a fight from oh so long ago "Let's go!" they cried, putting the Medal into the Head slot. The three medals shone brightly, synchronising, as they tilted the Driver.

They grabbed the OOOScanner with Ankh's hand, the large and clawed fingers making it a bit awkward but they held it confidently and proudly. Before they brought their arm down, scanning the three medals as they cried out "HENSHIN!"

A moment of silence filled the air, as the fused being stood tall and held the OOOScanner over their heart... before the transformation began. The rings of Medal symbols spinning and shifted around them. But the normal voice of the OOODriver was not heard. No, not at all.

TAKA!

The voice that was heard... was Eiji and Ankh's, the two crying out the medal's names with power. Flouting above Eiji's face was the rainbow-coloured Taka Medal

KUJAKU!

Goda took a step back, looking in horror and confusion as the rainbow-coloured Kujaku was shining in front of Eiji-Ankh's chest.

CONDOR!

This time the rainbow-coloured Condor was shown proudly, glistening in the air.

The three medals then combined and slammed against Eiji-Ankh's chest. However, instead of the normal glow and shift, a massive EXPLOSION of flames burst around them. Wrapping around the two, curling around them and burning.

TA~!

The flames were violent, cracking and flowing as the screech of three might birds were called. The flames solidified slightly, revealing the flames were some sort of firebird. A firebird spread its wings, revealing the new form of OOO as it let out a mighty screech and the flames faded away, the light around the Rider shimmering.

*-JA~!

From the bottom; Eiji's feet were mainly black but had red tops with a single green horn by the toes, red ankle guards with hexagon protections with green feathers on the sides. Black shin guards with red middles and bird wings that protected the tops; red-edged green hexagon kneecaps. A black bodysuit with red and green feather-styled circuitry markings on his thighs. His bracers were black with golden wrists and feather-layered edges near his elbow, black gloves with red backs; his shoulder guards were red and layered but had golden metal in between the lowest and the middle layers, the higher layers were mainly red but were gradient to yellow.

DORU~!

On his left bracer was the TajaSpinner; his OLung was the most different it had been, the red phoenix on his chest was now pure gold with the outer ring was a gradient shift, top to bottom, was red to yellow to green. Four tassels that went from his shoulders all the way down to his feet, diamond peacock-feather-shaped that were gradients from red to yellow to green to violet. And lastly, was the helmet; a red and black mouth guard, two hawk wings on the outer frame of the helmet that was a rainbow gradient, top to bottom: red to yellow to green to violet. Pure green visor eyes and finally was the top of his helmet, having a hawk head with a white beak, a small left green eye and a wing of yellow feathers covering the right eye to indicate Eiji's fusion with Ankh.

ETER~NITY~!

"This... is impossible." Goda whispered "Impossible... impossible... impossible!"

"As impossible as it is, it is standing before you Goda." Ankh spoke through the form, the TaJaTrinity Spinner on his left arm fading "Hmm. So THIS is what transforming is like? Interesting."

"You... fools! Combining your pathetic powers means NOTHING to me!" Goda snarled "I am a GOD! And I shall not be defeated."

The new Rider looked up, his green eyes shifting to purple as Eiji's voice came out through the armour "We shall see about that." he smirked, the eyes returning to green as Ankh took control once again.

"Amazing... wonderful..." Kougami stuttered out "It is truly... truly... SUBARASHI!" standing forwards, Kougami threw his hands out and laughed "HAPPY BIRTHDAY! We stand here at the advent of a whole new TaJaDor! Such an amazing spectacle!"

"And a spectacle is all it is." Goda hissed as he unfolded his claws "For it ends... -now-!" he hissed, charging forwards with cheetah speed.

Eiji-Ankh looked on at this, the incredible speed of this form, but their sight caught him before he struck down with claws.

Kamen Rider OOO slipped to the side. His movements were so smooth it was almost like a dance, one hand smoothly going up and sliding against the attacker's forearm and pushing it aside. Meanwhile, his other hand rushed forwards, slamming his palm against Goda's stomach causing a small shockwave of red flames pushing out through the mad king.

"Grr..." Goda snarled, the strength of Gorilla and Tricera flowing into his arm before he brought it down with a mighty punch.

OOO brought his arm up, his left arm, as the new TaJaTrinity Spinner formed. The shield blocking the strike, the Rider was thrown back. Their taloned boots cut, digging, into the dirt as he was thrown back. But he still stood strong, powerful "Come on Goda. You can do better than that." Ankh mocked.

"Impossible. Grr-Rargh!" Goda roared as he attacked again, he had the power of multiple combos brought together and wanted to take those Medals for his own. He was a King compared to a peasant.

(Der Schnittpunkt von zwei Wünschen)

(Eine Leistung von zwei Wünschen)

OOO pushed the strike back, the red Rider gave a powerful kick surrounded by flames. The strike brushed against Goda's body, pushing him back. The Rider threw his full weight into the kick, even jumping off the ground because of it. Spinning in the air, a giant pair of wings burst out of his back. With a flap of their wings, OOO stabilised himself as he landed calmly, having span a full 360 degrees from his kick.

Der Schnittpunkt von zwei Wünschen

Eine Leistung von zwei...

"How... this is impossible!" Goda snapped, unleashing a blast of lightning from his form. He unleashed a massive burst of green energy through the air, OOO raising his shield and blocking.

"Grrr..." OOO grunted, his heels digging in once more.

Rushing forwards once more, Goda threw a punch... and missed.

Time Judg-ed All!

OOO slammed his fist forward, striking Goda in the chest again with a palm strike.

Tajadoru... Tajadoru~!

Continuing with their elegant fighting style, they span and gave an elbow to the dark king's jaw.

Time Judg-ed All!

Goda roared, slashing with his claws once more while OOO leaned back. Dodging the attack, letting it slide across over him. Goda was over swinging, losing balance a bit, while his claws were aimed a BIT too high.

Tajadoru... Tajadoru~!

Straightening up their body, OOO pressed their left arm against Goda's stomach and unleashed a fireball directly against Goda's stomach.

Time Judg-ed All!

The King was thrown back again, only a few steps, before his eyes widened as he saw a blade rushing down at his face.

The now purple-eyed OOO had the Medajaribur, doing a powerful upwards slash. The blue blade dug into Goda's armour, throwing him into the air once more.

Tajadoru... Tajadoru~! (Der Schnittpunkt von zwei Wünschen)

Goda shifted his body and brought his leg down for a mighty kick, which smashed against OOO's face. They were sent falling back, rolling across the ground as dust was thrown into the air.

Getting into a crouched stance they held the Medajaribur ready, the weapon brushing against the TaJaTrinity Spinner as their purple eyes flashed green.

Time Judg-ed all!

A series of tentacles emerged from Goda's back, the vile villain roaring as the purple octopus tentacles rushed at the Kamen Rider before him.

OOO jumped forwards, rolling in the air between the tentacles. Landing they continued their forward roll, getting to their feet as the Ankh-controlled OOO gave a series of harsh and sudden slashes around him.

Tajadoru... Tajadoru~! (Eine Leistung von zwei Wünschen...)

Slash, slash and more slashes. Left, right, behind, forwards and more. Tentacles flew up into the air and falling, segments clattering to the floor around them as they charged forwards.

Green eyes flashed purple once more as the now Eiji-controlled OOO began to slash at Goda's waist and stomach.

Achikochi soko kashiko ni chirabaru yokubou

Goda gave a howl of pain as the blade dug through his body, cutting into his form before the Rider shifted his grip. Shifting it so the blade was facing downwards, they slammed their knee into the pump for the medal section. The Medajaribur rushed up, the pummel slamming against where in the helmet the dark king's nose would be

Ooku wo te ni dekitara negai ga kanau sa

Switching from Eiji's purple back to the green of the bird Greeed, Ankh didn't let the situation go to waste. The opportunity presented itself, he gave a powerful punch to Goda's chest and launched another fireball.

A large fireball rushed through the air, burning and red that slammed into Goda's chest. Deep, red and orange flames, spiralling up around the fallen ruler.

Minna ga furimawasare nakushiteku jiyuu

Jumping into the air, Eiji-OOO grabbed the Medajaribur by its handle once more, wings sprouting from the back of their armoured suit as they rushed over Goda. Spinning, and twisting the sword, they came down with a powerful slash. A slash encased with red flames that cut through Goda's armour once more.

Mokuteki sono tame nara shudan wa erabanai

"How... how... HOW?!" Goda ranted, spinning around to slash at OOO's face. Trying to literally claw it off. But his aim was... off. Somehow, he threw his arm much too high, OOO not even needing to dodge the blow. However, just for a second, a flash of yellow could be seen.

Naze hanarete shimatta…?

"ORIYA!" the two cried together, their form's eyes flashing silver while giving a powerful slash up along Goda's body. Cutting into Goda's belt for just a moment. Goda was knocked back again, while OOO drew six Cell Medal's out as their eyes flashed to Purple.

Jikuu sae wo koete…

The Medal's flashed with power, shifting from the dull silver... into a brilliant, radiant work of part. A deep, dazzling, rainbow-esk colour pallet. Starting as green and flowing into yellow before going to red. Just like the changing of their Red Core Medals.

Slipping the first of the three medals into the Medajaribur, Eiji pumped the handle and sent the medal into the blade.

"Why... why... WHY?!" Goda ranted, charging forwards as Eiji slashed the OScanner across the blade of the Medajaribur.

Kangaeteru

Hima wa nai ze

Dare ka ga yonderu

SINGLE! SCANNING ETERNITY!

"SEEYA!" Eiji cried as he rushed at Goda and met him. Claws to sword, as a brilliant golden radiance covered the blade. Shockwaves rushed out from the point of the impact, cracking the buildings around them... but Eiji was clearly losing the strength game.

Time Judged All Unmei

Cross suru ima

There was a small flicker of blue and Goda's eyes widened, finding his footing slip suddenly. Giving OOO the advantage, breaking the bind. Separating their weapons and giving a downwards slash with his weapon that cut through Goda's armour marvellously.

Time Judged All Sora e

Takaku maiagaru

Spinning around, OOO loaded the next two Medals and slashed Goda across the back. Losing his balance further, Goda completely disorientated, fell forwards. Crashing to the floor as OOO scanned his sword once again.

DUO! SCANNING ETERINITY!

Mune no honoo ga

Twisting their weapon, Eiji gave a mighty downwards stab. Slamming the blade directly into Goda's chest, a deep blazing flame rushed out into the air from the strike as the King roared in agonizing pain.

Yami wo yaki tsukusu

Goda grabbed the blade and snarled, unleashing a pulse of gravity from his form. A move that sent OOO flying helplessly into the air.

Following that, Goda roared and unleashed a water shot. High-pressure water soared through the air and slammed against OOO, smashing him against the wall.

Kiseki no chikara koko ni kourin

"It's over... I AM KING!" Goda roared, while getting to his feet. OOO managed to slip his three medals into the weapon. He just needed a sec-A flash of grey and Goda suddenly fell to a knee, OOO feeling the water attack weaken and allowing them to move once more.

TRINITY! SCANNING! ETERNITY!

"SEEYAH!" Eiji roared as he gave a powerful slash, followed by a second and then a third. Red, orange and yellow flames mix and rush through the air. Burning away the space between spaces itself and causing Goda to roar in pain.

Tajadoru... Tajadoru~! (Der Schnittpunkt von zwei Wünschen)

"My turn, Eiji. You've had enough." Ankh smirked as he took back control, the eyes shifting from purple to green once more. Reaching down he grabbed the TaJaTrinity Spinner and opened the cover, while he pulled out six medals and put them in their place. Tree orange medals, depicting a Cobra as well as a turtle and a crocodile, alongside the three Super Medals, before slamming the lid closed.

Time Judg-ed All!

"I won't... allow this!" Goda ranted "I am the King! The King beyond Infinity itself! I AM A GOD!" Reaching down, he and OOO both drew their OScanner's. OOO brought his to his spinner while Goda prepared to scan his belt... only for the scanner to slip from his grip in a flash of blue.

Tajadoru... Tajadoru~! (Eine Leistung von zwei Wünschen...)

As the Scanner hit the Spinner, the inside began to spin rapidly. MEdals being scanned in quick sucession, their power flowing around the Rider.

COBRA! KAME! WANI! SUPER TAKA! SUPER TORA! SUPER BATTA!

Pushing along the spinner, the Core Medal's almost looking like glowing suns through the Spinner, the Rider shifted his stance. Flames burst around him, morphing and shifting. A large cross of fire emerged from the spinner before it all condensed at the front which he unleashed as a massive sea of flames out and over Goda's form. The flaming shadows of a turtle, a hawk, a grasshopper, a tiger, a crocodile and a cobra rushing through the flames to slash and strike at Goda.

ETERNITY SCAN!

"GAAAAH!" Goda roared out in pain as he was thrown back once more.

Sou darou? Dare mo jibun dake mitasaretai

"You... You are facing MY desire! An endless desire that consumes all! And the power of five Greeed combined together!" Goda panted once the flames finally finished washing over him "How... HOW?! How are you so powerful? You should-GAH!"

Sou ja nai koukai shinai ikikata ga shiritai

Goda's ranting ended as he reached up and grabbed his face, a flash of green happening, and his head was thrown back "What... WHAT DID YOU DOI?!"

"I don't know what you're talking about." Ankh scoffed.

Tatoe itsuwari demo

Kizutsukerarenai sa

"Me neither." Eiji admitted. And it was true, they didn't. Because what they did not realise... was that they were not fighting alone.

Onaji yami wo

Harai nokete

As Goda got to his feet and charged forwards, unseen by anyone else, Kazari was rushing beside him. His spirit reaching out from within Goda. And Kazari threw his arm up, his claw meeting Goda's and causing said arm to move even higher. So that when Goda threw his slash at OOO, rushing at the speed of a cheetah, he missed.

Asu wo kiri hiraku

Spinning, Goda tried to perform a kick. OOO leaned back as Uva appeared, pushing the leg so the kick moved faster. Missing OOO, as Goda was aiming for where OOO WOULD have been. But now? OOO had closed the gap.

Time Judged All Unmei

Mawaridashitara

Eyes purple once more, Eiji threw his fist forward. Smashing it against Goda's kidney, before shifting and thrusting a palm against his face. Mezool appeared and kicked at the back of Goda's leg, causing him to lose his footing further.

Time Judged All Tomaranai

Owari kuru made

Shifting to green, Ankh gave a roundhouse punch top Goda's face. And then a powerful knee to Goda's chest. As Goda tried to charge forwards, Gamel appeared and slammed his shoulder on top Goda's chest. Sending him flying back further.

Futatsu no negai

"Why... this... is IMPOSSIBLE!" Goda ranted "Let's see... you survive the ICE AGE! Flames are useless when there is NO HEAT!" As he roared out, he threw his fist into the ground. And suddenly... a blizzard came rushing out.

Butsukari atte

OOO yelled out as they were hit by the arctic winds, trying to use their flames to fight back. But they were pushed backwards, their heels digging into the ground as they attempted to push back against the storm. Even as the ice began to form over their armour, their form sparking and quaking.

Kiseki no chikara koko ni kourin

"Why do you two keep fighting?!" Goda ranted as he increased the power of the storm, the roar of dinosaurs being blown along the winds "This fight is meaningless! I am a GOD! Immortal! Eventually, you will fall! AND I SHALL STILL BE STANDING TO RULE ALL!"

Ah Kowareta Medaru o mune ni

Zutto sagashiteita asu

OOO raised his head... revealing their left eye had turned green, while the right was still purple. Both Eiji and Ankh shared control at that exact moment, their flames burning and holding back the arctic storm before them.

Kono ude yo

"As long as he reaches out his hand for mine!" Ankh roared, the one eye of OOO flashing with his rage in its brilliant green.

Tsukameyou

"As long as I can hold on..." Eiji continued, one eye of the Rider form purple... before both eyes glowed, shifting to a brilliant shade of silver.

Futari de mou ichidou...

"WE ARE INVINCIBLE!" Kamen Rider OOO roared as flames flowed over his form, their silver eyes glowing heroically as they pushed through Goda's blast of ice.

Fly out, Time Judged All!

The winds were... just gone. The ice was blown away by the blaze of OOO's fire, a phoenix of flames flapping its wings behind OOO.

"And that... is why we will win!" OOO spoke with the two's combined voices

Goda's faze was frozen in fear and shock, realising that his power was overcome by the combination of two fighting together.

"Your desire is weak, Goda." OOO spoke "Because your desires are your own alone. A single arrow that can easily be snapped. It's why you want to be a good, why you want immortality. Because at the end of the day... You are afraid. Afraid of dying."

"And you're not?!" Goda laughed.

"Not scared, no." Both spoke, glaring at Goda.

"Eiji is willing to fight, do die, to save and protect others." Ankh spoke, "He has accepted death."

"And Ankh has died. He sacrificed his life for others already." Eiji responded, "He didn't know I'd be able to bring him back, he didn't even think it was even possible."

"We accept death! And that's why we truly live!" OOO roared "And with other's desires intertwined with ours, that singular arrow becomes an unbreakable bundle! Now, old King... It is time for you to rest in peace!"

With another blast of flames, OOO grew a massive pair of almost angelic-looking red, yellow and green feathered wings before they rushed into the sky.

"My reign... Will never end!" Goda roared, growing a pair of glowing black wings before he rushed into the skies after OOO.

OOO looked down quickly, before soaring up faster and faster as he formed a Mach cone around his head. The two look like comets.

Time Judged All Unmei

Cross suru ima

The two rushed around the air, clashing in the air again and again. Two opposing forces that had the world alight with flames and shadow. Red and black shockwaves echoed through the air with every collision. Rushing apart before crashing against one another a second later. From down below, you could not tell what was happening. But each time the two collided, fists and/or feet collided with blow after blow.

Goda went in for another punch, only for Gamel to punch the king in the jaw. Taken off guard, OOO managed to catch him with a mighty kick.

Time Judged All Sora e

Takaku maiagaru

When they clashed again, Uva grabbed Goda's leg allowing a mighty elbow to his leg.

Then, in their next clash, Mezool pushed Goda forward so OOO could smash his knee into Goda's face.

And then when they collided once more, Kazari slashed at Goda's back as his fist was about to collide with OOO's allowing the Rider to get inside Goda's guard and punch his chest armour enough to crack it.

Time Judged All Unmei

Mawaridashitara

Goda flew back, panting, as OOO flew up high. As the rider stopped, flames washed over him as the two fused together and shared a metaphysical glance.

"Eiji... let's end this!" Ankh called, as OOO drew the OScanner.

"Right... Ankh. Let's end this!" Eiji called while scanning their driver.

Time Judged All Tomaranai

Owari kuru made

Flames wrapped around the two as OOO's wings extended, the Rider curling into a ball slightly before rocketing down while performing a flying double drop-kick. Their wings giant, flames rushing around them and forming a giant phoenix.

SCANNING CHARGE!

"W-What?!" Goda gasped, struggling to straighten himself in the air as he looked up... and his eyes shrunk in horror.

Torimodosareta

The red rings formed between OOO and Goda, OOO's eyes glowing as gravity and his own aerial power helped him rush towards the ground... with Goda between him and the ground.

The evil King quickly reached for his hip, trying to grab his OScanner to counter... when he found he couldn't move. The spirits of the four Greeed had him, holding onto each of his limbs tightly. Death grips as OOO rushed towards them.

Medaru habataku

OOO's leg armour began to unfold. The sections on his shins unfold, turning his lower legs into large bird talons. As he passed through the rings, ghostly fire-made clones of these talons formed around them as they rocketed down.

"SEEYA!" The two roared together as they passed through the rings.

Kiseki no chikara koko ni kourin

"SEEYA!" their cry echoed as their feet slammed into Goda's chest, making him howl in pain.

Tajadoru... Tajadoru~! (Der Schnittpunkt von zwei Wünschen)

"SEEYA!" Their yell echoed once more as the talons, both real and flaming phantoms, came down and stabbed into Goda. Slashing, cutting and ripping through him.

"Im... Impossible!" he stuttered out, looking down in horror before an explosion enveloped the two of them.

Time Judg-ed All!

KABOOM!

OOO came rushing down, landing proudly as their feet dug into the concrete below. The ground being ripped apart as he slowly stood tall and turned around, as Goda crashed to the ground. His Rider form flickered in and out of existence.

Tajadoru... Tajadoru~! (Eine Leistung von zwei Wünschen...)

"I... am... KIIIIIING!" Goda screamed as he came to his feet... only to explode once more, his three new medals flying into the air and shattering.

Time Judg-ed All!

OOO looked on as the flames washed over them, seeing Cell and Core Medals scattering around everywhere. Flames flickering as Goda's existence was gone for good.

Twinkles of grey, green, yellow and blue Medals fell about, slowly clattering to the ground as they remained inert. The purple Medals remained in the air the longest as Eiji and Ankh followed them down to the ground

'Finally, it's over.' Ankh thought as he and Eiji separated.

They tilted the OOODriver and removed the evolved TaJaDor medals. Their Rider form faded away as Ankh and Eiji walked in separate directions. The medals, now in Ankh's hand, flickered with light and reverted to their original state

"Guess they couldn't stay like that forever." Ankh whispered to himself.

"Nine, ten. Ten. Ten...they're all here." Eiji whispered as he counted the total Core Medals and he looked to the side, seeing the silver and black-rimmed medals... "They're all here." he smiled happily... frowning a second later "Wait. There... your medals."

"I smashed a bunch of the fakes, yeah." Ankh nodded "Whatever you're planning? Not for me."

"I..." Eiji muttered and sighed "Alright. Fine." he nodded, making sure he had all of the medals gathered "Let's go home."

"I'm sure Hina has my ice lolly ready." Ankh thought to himself.

"Eiji! Ankh!" Mr Kougami spoke out as he saw them walk.

"Hey sir, we won." Eiji smiled

"Subarashi." The cake boss whispered with a smile "A bright new future awaits us after that, boys! Just you wait!"

"Good thing I have tomorrow's pants all ready." Eiji grinned.

"You're still doing that?" Ankh groaned.

"Of course. I just hope they still have their memories and personalities." Eiji nodded.

*time skip*

"So... Kougami, sir... What the hell happened?!" Date yelled a few days later "What happened to TaJaDor?!"

"I believe that it was the combined desires of Eiji and Ankh wishing to live and stop Goda. Though this is just my speculation." Kougami answered.

It was several days later. And after deep research, that was the result.

Kougami, Date, Goto and Ms Satonaka were all within the former's office, the businessman wearing a white suit today.

"Their two souls intertwined; their desires melded into one. The fact Eiji was possessed by Ankh at the time, Ankh's FULL power flowed through the OOODriver rather than just three singular medals. His main core, the one that holds his soul, alongside two more while the other six were within their shared body. A body that was filled with Eiji's unlimited desire to protect, and Ankh's powerful desire for life and humanity. It created a miracle. We still do not fully understand Core Medals and the power of Core Energy. It is as much magic as it is technology." Kougami explained. "All I can say for sure, it is a miracle, and that it is possibly the only time we could see such a power."

"Possible." Goto pointed out "If one of the other Greeed DID possess Eiji, could they do the same with their Combo?"

"Possibly." Kougami agreed "But there is still a possibility it is impossible. After all, from our research, it is highly possible that TaJaDor was the intended final form of the OOO system when it was created by Goda so long ago. It is why he kept Ankh so close to him, why he focused on manipulating Ankh and only Ankh, and why his form is so unique compared to the other Full Combos. But, of course, the Purple Medals where not intended."

"So TaJaDor was the intended pinnacle, but PuToTyra is the actual final state of OOO?" Goto asked "Is that correct?"

"That is my current theory, yes." Kougami nodded "And if my theory is correct, then that may be another reason for the TaJaDor Eternity form we witnessed. Ankh's medals are special among the five Greeeds. So even if the other Greeed possess Eiji, they may not be able to reach the same sort of form. But, again, this is all speculation."

"Speaking of, where IS Eiji?" Date asked, relaxing.

"Making a future." Ms Satonaka grinned, having a slice of cake.

"Such a romantic, Erika." Date chuckled.

*Elsewhere*

Elsewhere within the building, within the Kougami Foundation headquarters, we find Eiji standing in the hallway next to Hina.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Hina asked him.

"I'm fulfilling a promise." Eiji said softly with a smile "Besides, I have to try."

"But what if they-"

"Trust me, Hina. It'll be fine." Eiji promised.

"If... If you're sure." She sighed.

"I'll be out shortly." He promised, patting her shoulder, before heading into a room and locking the door behind him. The room was normally used as a nurse's office. There were four beds set up, each filled to the literal tipping point with Cell Medals. Ankh was sitting in the corner, next to several stacks of medals "All ready?'

"Let's do this." Ankh answered, holding up the 'Soul' Core medals of the other four Greeed. The souls of the Greeed were all held within their head medals. So, with a flick of his wrist, he threw the medals into a pile each. Kuwagata for Uva, Lion for Kazari, Sachi for Mezool and finally Sai for Gamel 'You better wake up after all this.' Ankh thought to himself, collecting this many Cell Medals was a pain.

They had spent the days experimenting, scanning, and working on the medals. So, they would know if this plan Eiji had would even work.

The Core Medals began to glow, each one with their respective colours as they began to absorb the Cell Medals on the beds, slowly forming their bodies once again.

Eiji then gave a throw, adding two more medals each into the piles. Gorilla and Zou for Gamel, Cheetah and Tora for Kazari, Kamakiri and Batta into Uva's and finally landing in Mezool's was Tako as well as Unagi.

The four piles of Medals glowed and flickered, the Greeed emerging from the beds in their human forms.

"W-What?" Kazari muttered, "My head... it-it's killing me."

"We-We're a-alive?" Mezool blinked.

"Mezool!" Gamel cheered.

"OOO." Uva snarled as he got off the bed, almost storming over to him "You won?!"

"Yes, we have." Eiji nodded... as Uva spotted the piles of medals.

"Grr." Uva growled, walking closer and closer to Eiji "I knew it. You were never planning on-"

"On what? This?" Eiji asked, throwing his hand casually. Two more of each of his medals, a total of nine medals within Uva. Three Kuwagata, three Kamakiri and three Batta.

"G-Gah!" Uva gasped as his body crackled and sparked before he changed back into his Greeed form as energy shot out of his body "YES!" he laughed madly, his body sparking with green energy "YES! YES! I AM COMPLETE! I AM-"

"Catch." Eiji added, throwing the tenth Medal into Uva's chest. Uva's tenth insectoid medal. The fourth Batta Medal.

Uva let out a noiseless breath as his body stiffened, green energy surrounding him. Flashing, glowing and shifting. Even growing. Like a bomb.

"Or did you mean this?" Eiji joked, throwing three silver-rimmed medals through the air. The Kuwagata, Kamakiri and Batta medals made from Foundation X. The Medals glistened in the light before they slipped into Uva's body.

...

And then it all stopped.

The green energy just... faded into nothing. Uva froze, his form shifting as he reverted into his human state. His eyes were bulging out of his head, his body quaking a bit as he let out little gasping breaths.

"Uva?" Mezool blinked.

"What about... this?" Eiji asked, throwing the three black-rimmed medals made by Zeus in next.

"W-Wai-" Uva tried to speak only for the medals to enter his body. Uva looked like he was punched across the face as he stumbled back, falling against the wall as he reached p and grasped it. His eyes looked up, transfixed by the ceiling as he looked... strange.

"What did you do to him, bastard?!" Kazari snapped as he rushed forwards... only for Eiji to shove his hand against the feline Greeed's chest. The other six of his nine, the six medals from both Foundation X and Zeus, as well as his tenth Medal, a Tora. All thirteen pushed into his chest at once.

Kazari froze, his eyes wide in shock as his body shook. And as Eiji let go of his chest, the feline Greed slumped against the wall behind Eiji. Almost falling face first on it, as he grabbed at the wall.

"Sorry about that. I knew those two wouldn't really 'listen' so had to be a bit awkward and forceful." Eiji laughed, rubbing the back of his neck.

"What did you do?!" Gamel snapped.

"You may be cute, OOO-boy, but don't think attraction will save you from me ripping your head off if you try and hurt my Gamel!" Mezool glared.

"You are a real good mother, Mezool. Most kids would be jealous of Gamel." Eiji said honestly with a laugh.

"You got that right!" Gamer nodded. "...What did you do?"

"Here, catch." Ankh answered, throwing more Medals his way.

Mezool threw her hand out, using a burst of water to blast the medals away "Keep your hands off him!" She growled.

"Hey, hey, let me explain." Eiji said, holding his hands up "Please."

"Fine." Mezool frowned, her fingers twitching.

"The colours... So... So bright." Uva mumbled, shocking the other Greeed

"Wh-? What did you say?" Gamel asked.

"That-that smell. Is that cake? Something smells sweet!" Kazari followed, smelling the air.

"What did you do?" Mezool asked.

"Having nine or less medals meant that your senses are dulled or muted. But having ten means you're practically human now." Eiji smiled.

"Or at least simulating human. Which had me thinking." Reaching down he grabbed six medals. The Foundation X and Zeus blue and grey medals. Standing tall, he showed them off "As I said before. Over the years? I have fought clones of you. Some mindless, some near-perfect copies. Which included copies of your Core Medals. And, as I said, it had me thinking. Ten medals would make you feel complete, right? It would fill that void. But ... What about sixteen? What about a sensation of... Satisfaction?"

"Satisfaction?" Gamel asked.

"Exactly." Ankh nodded as he crossed his arms. "You're not just 'playing human' anymore."

"Oh? You going to take our desire away and have us as puppets then?" Mezool asked. Drawing a conclusion from the word satisfaction, that they would lose their desires because they had no need of them anymore.

...

And Eiji laughed

"No, no. The opposite, actually." Eiji smiled.

...

"What?" Both asked.

"The Greeed. You ARE desire. Nothing should ever try and take it away." Eiji explained softly "But when you are complete... Mezool. You abandoned Gamel when you had all nine of your medals because your desires were that strong. Despite what your desire is."

The water Greeed looked away in shame at that. Not even arguing against it. Not trying to deny it.

"What could happen if you have all ten?" Eiji continued his train of thought "You lost control because you have been incomplete for so long. Your desire, your very essence, is stronger than your reasoning. Especially with your dulled senses. I've felt what you two are feeling right now. The muted colours. The echoey, distances of my voice, the tinted scents, the distorted sound of my words, the barely there taste of food, the sensation of touch so faint even if you are crushing it within your palm. It's almost like being blind, enhancing the feelings of your other senses. Unfortunately for you Greeed, your other sense is your desire."

"What's your point?" Gamel asked.

"Having more than you need? Satisfying the empty hole and letting it truly settle?" Eiji grinned "It won't steal your desire away. But it will allow you to see the world in a whole new way. You'll be able to touch, smell, taste and so much more as well as anyone else. Strengthen your will, in a way, so you can say no."

"Say... No?" Gamel blinked.

"Yes." Ankh huffed "You will still have your desires. But since your existence won't be screaming for them to fill the endless black void, you can 'control' yourself for a lack of a better term. Think through your actions better."

"Choose if you should go for this desire if that desire is important, and how to do it." Eiji smiled "Let's say I'm hungry and I'm walking down the street. I see my favourite restaurant and I decide I want to get their burger. But I have food at home, and I am low on money. It's not that important, it can wait. But I could go there another day to have that burger."

Mezool looked at Eiji, hearing what he was saying and was stunned in joy...and outreached for the last of the Medals. "Eiji...please."

"Yes, Mezool?" Eiji asked gently, holding her six Foundation X/Zues Medals. As well as her other six medals, and her lost tenth Medal which was an Unagi Medal. He was not being mean, cruel, or mocking. He wanted her consent before he did anything. Sure, he flung them to Uva and Kazari but that's because even if he told them they would have taken the medals, anyone. The two were the most violent/eager. Ankh did not want his tenth medal, nor the singular surviving Foundation X Kujaku or Zeus Condor medal. He respected all three choices. Just like Gamel and Mezool right in front of him, he wanted their consent.

"Please give me those remaining Medals." She asked kindly. "But give Gamel his first."

"Of course." he nodded, putting all of her medals in one hand. Holding all thirteen in one hand was awkward, but he managed. Standing up tall he grabbed the thirteen grey medals off the table and held them out to Gamel "What do you say buddy?" he asked, offering them kindly

Gamel looked at the Medals and then at Ankh, then to Mezool and then to Eiji. "Will I taste the sweets and things I like? I can taste everything without it being dulled?"

"Yeah, exactly. We'll have to define what you can and can't eat. But yeah." Eiji answered.

"And Mezool be okay?"

"Of course."

Gamel looked at the Medals and nodded. "Yeah. Yeah, I want the Medals."

Eiji nodded, placing Gamel's thirteen medals into the gentle giant's hands. Watching as they melted into his body.

Gamel shuddered and sighed in heavy relief as he smiled, feeling the combined Medals enter his human body and felt more complete than ever before.

"Oh... W-Wow!" Gamel gasped out in wonder, sitting in a chair "Tingly~!"

"Mezool?" Eiji asked, holding out the medals for the blue Greeed.

"I thought I-, please, Eiji-Boy. Give me the last Medals." She asked.

"Here." He answered, giving her the Medals into her hand. Albeit a little awkwardly.

"Hmm~, this feels nice." She smiled as she absorbed them. "Now, you said that I can 'feel satisfaction' right?" Mezool asked.

"Yeah, that's right." He nodded, as Mezool pulled him in and kissed him.

"Thank you." Mezool nodded as she reached out to his offered hand and grasped the medals.

"Here." He answered, giving her the Medals. Albeit a little awkwardly. Soon she had all ten of her original Medals.

"Hmm~, this feels nice." She smiled as she started absorbing them. "Now, you said that I can 'feel satisfaction' right?" Mezool asked as she held up the extra six.

"Yeah, that's right." He nodded, as Mezool pulled him in and kissed him. She absorbed the medals at the exact same moment, kissing Eiji. Nothing deep, nothing passionate, nothing crazy. She just pushed forwards and pressed her lips against his.

Gamel and Ankh looked at both Eiji and Mezool in shock, seeing her instigate the kiss as she pulled back and smirked.

"Wh-what was that?" Eiji asked.

"Satisfaction." She puckishly remarked, her voice short and shaky despite her confidence "I... I never knew kissing would feel like that. I liked it." She said with a smile, brushing her hair behind her ear. She was almost overwhelmed. The sensation of another person's lips, their taste, their warmth. It was so intoxicating~!

"Mezool~!" Gamel complained as he held onto a nearby bed sheet, the softness amazed him even as he called out to the aquatic Greeed.

Mezool turned around to look at the mammalian Greeed... And suddenly it was like the stars aligned. And so many thoughts and feelings flushed through her mind.

Warmth, pride, love. How she always had everything she ever needed right there in front of her, how her desire had been fulfilled since the day they gained a sense of self. Her cute little Gamel, who she had named and basically raised. How powerful he had grown how cute he was. Her son was right there.

"Gamel!" Mezool almost cried, outright cried, as she hurried over and pulled Gamel into a tight hug.

Ankh saw this and felt...Happy. this was his family finally fulfilling the voids in their cores. "Looks like you have a family, Eiji."

"Hey, you've got one to Ankh." Eiji commented, pushing his friend's shoulder slightly "Two now."

"Hehe." Ankh laughed "Hey, Gamel. You might want to make your human form younger." The bird Greeed said, trying not to break the mood too much

"Huh? Oh, right." Gamel blinked and then realised, turning from a twenty-something man to an eight-year-old boy.

"Ankh, where are you going with this?" Eiji asked.

"How's this, Mezool?" He asked, wearing the same clothes just smaller on him.

"You're adorable!" She smiled.

"Get in there, 'daddy'." Ankh smiled and pushed Eiji in.

"It'd be weird if Gamel and Mezool go around calling each other mother and son when Gamel looks the same age, if not older, than her. People will think they are... One of those."

...

"I hate the fact that you just made sense." Eiji admitted with a deadpan look.

"But what do you mean 'daddy'?" He blinked, not realising how close he was to Mezool and Gamel right now

"Take a look at yourselves. You look like a family." Ankh smirked.

"Huh?" Eiji blinked, as he did as Ankh said. Looking at the three of them.

Mezool was the mother, Gamel their child. And Eiji himself was the father.

Three unlikely beings are brought together, each of them having Medal physiology. And their voids were complete.

It was definitely not something he was expecting...

Gamel hid behind Mezool, glaring at Eiji.

"Looks like we're going to have an... 'interesting' future, Eiji." Mezool purred.

"Yeah, I... Oh. You... You called me by my name." He laughed nervously.

"What...happens now, OOO?" Kazari mumbled as he tried to get hold of himself again

"We've got a lot to deal with now." Uva added.

Eiji hummed as he was asked that, looking to Ankh for inspiration...and smiled. "Ice lollies."

...

"What?" The Greeed all asked

---

*Time skip*

"YUMMY!" Gamel cheered as he ate a purple ice lolly.

"Hmm, this ain't bad." Kazari hummed eating a yellow ice lolly.

"Ah! Brain freeze!" Uva groaned as he bit into a green ice lolly.

"Now I know why you have these, Ankh." Mezool laughed as she bit into a blue one.

Ankh grumbled a little, as his personal stash was being devoured five times as fast...but he didn't hate it.

He took a bite out of his red ice, sighing in relief.

"So..." Hina blinked, having an orange ice lolly in her hand.

"They're free to do what they want. To live their lives, finally." Eiji said with a smile, the only one of them without one of the sweet treats "They know that if they cause trouble, I will stop them. They're free to live wherever they want. Although I doubt they'll be going far."

"But... What about your medals?" Hina blinked.

"I'm sure they'll help me." Eiji shrugged "And if not, then I have enough. Besides, I've seen their medals copied enough. It's only a matter of time until it happens again. Or Kougami can do it. Heck, they've been studying the Foundation X and Zeus ones enough these past few days. I'm sure any new medals they make will be able to mix and match. Either way, I'm fine. OOO is fine. And even if it wasn't? ... I've done it. I stopped Mako. Now Ankh is back. That was my goal for the past ten years. And I've even stopped Goda. My journey is over."

...

"You know what they call that? The end of a journey?" Hina grinned as she suddenly grabbed Eiji's hand.

"Wha-wow!" Eiji blinked, only to gasp as Ms Super Strength herself dragged him over to the Greeed.

Arriving beside them, Hina grabbed Ankh's hand with her free one. The one holding his ice.

Ankh blinked and looked at her in confusion but seeing her glare he sighed. Reaching down... He grasped Uva's hand.

"What?" Uva blinked.

"Just keep it going." Ankh grumbled.

"Whatever." Uva huffed, reaching down and grasping Kazari's hand.

"Huh?" The feline Greeed asked.

"Some tradition thing." Uva shrugged. Kazari shrugged and reached out, grasping Gamel's hand.

Gamel grinned, growing back into his older human form to make it all more comfortable as he grasped Mezool's hand and beamed at her.

Mezool chuckled and reached out to grasp Eiji's hand. Finishing the circle.

"Er... Hina? What's going on?" Eiji blinked, as they all stood in a circle.

"What do you call the end of one journey?" Hina asked as she looked up high, closing her eyes. And with a small pause, she answered herself "A new beginning."

...

Eiji let out a chuckle as he grinned, looking over his shoulders. Looking at everyone. Hand in hand. Reaching out for one another.

Ankh held a small grin, closing his eyes as he let out a sigh "She's right." He admitted.

"Yeah. She is." Eiji nodded, looking up to the sky "To new beginnings." He whispered.

As the seven stood there, in a circle. The symbol of the TaToBa combo appeared in the medal-like shape they had made as they basked in the sunlight of a brand-new day.

All of them ready to reach out to a new future and make it their own.
