Chapter 15: Riders Together!
Over in Bonesborough, the citizens were still preparing for tomorrow's festival. Suddenly, a huge purple smoke cloud came crashing through the streets. Everyone around was shocked at this as they saw a being inside the cloud. When the smoke cleared, it revealed Agatha on her knees with a scythe in her hand. She stood up and opened her eyes, as they flashed red.
"And so, it begins." she said coldly to herself. The leader of the Shocker Coven slammed the butt of her scythe against the ground, causing thunder to rumble through the air. "People of Boneborough, rejoice. For you will be the first to be sacrificed to the glory of the Shocker Coven, to our Great Leader!"
The citizens of the town were about to go into a full-blown panic, some had even begun to run away as fast as they could. However, everyone stopped when they saw a familiar magic circle appeared ten feet off the ground. The citizens paused, waiting and watching. A moment after the circle appeared, Witch jumped out and landed perfectly on the ground. Heka was next to appear as she stood at Witch's right, followed by Crusader on her left. The faces of the various witches and demons shifted from panic to joyful at the sight of their heroes appearing.
"The Light of Hope, Kamen Rider Witch!" Witch said as she struck a pose.
"The sun's wrath incarnate! Kamen Rider Heka!" Heka struck an elegant pose
"The Bringer of Justice! Kamen Rider Crusader!" Crusader announced.
Agatha turned around to face them, her robe fluttering in the air from quick movement.
"Ah, Kamen Riders," she said, "I'm so glad you could make it."
"Alright Agatha," Witch started, "this is the end of the Shocker Coven!"
"On the contrary," Agatha replied, "It's only just beginning!" Her eyes turned red as she raised her scythe into the air. Suddenly a completely different voice came out of her mouth. "DAI KAIJIN FUKKATSU!" She then slammed the butt of her scythe to the ground, causing lightning to strike the ground around her, creating smoke explosions. From within the smoke, fifteen monsters emerged.
First of the monsters was insect-like in appearance. His head was rust colored, with two red antennae, three red compound eyes, and two red his body was humanoid, with black hands, and red stripes around his wrists. The chest area was black with red vertical stripes. The rest of its body was colored a blue-green, a belt around his waist that displayed the Shocker Coven emblem, and he wore a black cape that seemed to have been woven from webs. "Man Spider!"
The second was a blue, bipedal fiddler crab monster. The creature had white spots littered about its body, a large incredibly sharp pincer on its left hand, three talons on its right hand, and its mouth ran the length of its body, stopping halfway down the middle of its chest. The outer lips were yellow, while the mouth was a light red color. Its head was oblong shaped with four grooves like gills and wore the Shocker Coven emblem belt. "Siomaneking!"
The third was a hybrid of a lizard and a scorpion. The right side of its body was covered in grayish blue scales that resembled rock, and the right hand had red claws. While the left side had red exoskeletal plates, and its left hand was two pincers, with a third that acted like a thumb. The creature's head was grotesque, with a combination of the lizard portion of the hybrid, but with the scorpion half trying to take over the left. "Sasori Tokagues!"
The fourth anthropomorphic jaguar. One half of its body was covered in red jaguar print fur, while the left half was armored. Both black hands had two long stingers with a claw sticking out like an opposable thumb. Its head was that of a jaguar, with bared fangs, black flowing hair going down its back, and two spiral horns. "Hasami Jaguar!"
The fifth was a fish themed monster. With blue and gold colored scales, gray chains, and the belt of Shocker Coven around his waist. The monster had a beard that was made up of golden scales, on his head was a single dorsal fin, and in his left hand he wielded a trident. "Neptune!"
The sixth was a gray scaled crocodile. It had a hunched posture, with thick legs, and relatively short arms. "Crocodile Beastman!"
The seventh was an anthropomorphic bee. Its body was the typical black and yellow coloring of a bee, an abdomen, two legs, a long proboscis, red compound eyes, and two black stingers for hands. "Bee Beastman!"
The eighth was a strange looking Kaijin. Its upper half was mainly made of silver coils and loosely resembled a kangaroo. It had two horns on its head, a long snout, a "roo" sticking out of its stomach region that resembled the bigger one except this one had red eyes. And a long tail made of the coils. "Kikkaijin Gangaru!"
The ninth was a cyborg. It had gray armor around its stomach region, while the rest of its body was colored cobalt blue. The monster's right arm had a red magnetic bar, while the left had a dark blue magnetic bar. Its head was covered in a red helmet, while its horns were the two halves of a magnet. In this monster's hand was a staff weapon that had two different polarity ends. "Commander Jishaku!"
The tenth was a large turquoise colored chameleon monster, with large yellow eyes, sharp black claws. "Gameleojin!"
The eleventh monster was a cyborg gorilla monster. It's upper half was mostly mechanical, with tubes running along the sides of its body, and on its arms. Its forearms were covered in thicker armor with three talons on each one. Its mouth had sharp metal jaws, with hydraulic tubes connecting to it, and its eyes were covered in a visor that had five optic lenses. And its lower half had thick fur. "Fire Kong!"
The twelfth monster looked like a humanoid spinning top. Its body was colored yellow, with the Shocker Coven's symbol on its chest, and on its belt. The Kaijin's right hand was a claw hammer, and around its neck area had sharp blades. The top of the Kaijin's head was fashioned into a drill, with two yellow eyes, two long canine teeth that protruded from its upper lip. "KomaThunder!"
The thirteenth was a humanoid tiger, with red colored arms, and legs. This tiger looked as if it was melded with a tank, as its back had three different length cannons sticking out. "Tiger-Roid!"
The fourteenth was a grotesque humanoid rhino. It had a thick gray hide, a huge first horn and a second smaller horn on its snout, and long claws on its hands. "Rhinoceros Mutant!"
The fifteenth and final monster was a toad-like monster, with varying shades of blue, yellow, and green scales. Its eyes were blood red, with a single black slit pupil, five horns, and rows of sharp teeth. "Culculten!"
Along with the monsters were several Combatman footsoldiers.
"BEHOLD KAMEN RIDERS," Agatha yelled, "THIS IS THE MIGHT OF THE SHOCKER COVEN! YOU THREE STAND NO CHANCE AGAINST US!"
"Perhaps not just three, but how about fifteen Riders?!" a voice rang out.
The Shocker Coven Kaijin and Combatmen looked around for the source of the voice, but their search was short lived. From the magic circle still above them, eleven Kamen Riders dropped out of the glowing circle and landed next to the three magical Riders. The Combatmen and Kaijin flinched a bit upon seeing the new additions to the Riders' ranks.
"Kamen Rider Ichigo!"
"Kamen Rider Nigo!"
"Kamen Rider V3!"
"Riderman!"
"Kamen Rider X!"
"Kamen Rider Amazon!"
"Kamen Rider Stronger!"
"Skyrider!"
"Kamen Rider Super-1!"
"Kamen Rider ZX!"
"Kamen Rider Black RX!"
The magical Riders looked at each of their Showa Era compatriots and nodded at them before turning their attention back to the enemy before them.
"Looks like our odds just improved." Heka commented.
"It's over for you, Agatha Blackrose!" Witch yelled.
"Agatha Blackrose?" the Shocker Coven Head asked, "Don't even compare me to that worm!" Her body was then enveloped by purple smoke. "I am The Shocker Coven's General!" a light flashed from within the smoke, once it dispersed it revealed a new Kaijin. Agatha's body was draped in a cloak of feathers that were black and dark-brown for a moment, until she opened it revealed what else was hidden underneath. She still had the black scythe, but her hands up to her forearms were black in color, and each of her four digits had long claws at the ends of them. Her legs were digitigrade like a bird's, and like her forearms and hands they were black, but the coloring changed when it reached her thighs and biceps. The coloring after that was aero-blue, while her torso was covered in a black leotard that had the emblem of the Shocker Coven printed on it. Agatha's head was covered in a cowl shaped like an owl, with two curved feathers that resembled horns, and two red glowing eyes. "Owl Necromancer!"
"What?! OWL Necromancer?" La Lechuza exclaimed, "Oh, yet another creature trying to copy my greatness!"
"Watch yourself, Laly, your hubris is showing," Bast teased.
"It's the principle of the thing!"
"I'll send all you Kamen Riders to the depths of Hell!" Owl Necromancer announced, "Have at them!" All of the monsters and foot soldiers charged at the fourteen heroes.
"Alright! Let's do it!" Witch yelled as she and the others charged into battle.
Witch jumped into the fight, striking one of the Combatmen in the face with a palm strike, followed by a sweeping kick to take down another one. One of the Combatmen came at her with his sword, but Witch easily dodged the attack. He tried to attack again, but Witch blocked his swing with her forearm before grabbing the same arm and throwing him over her shoulder. A third was about to attack her from behind, but Witch sensed his attack coming, and dropped to elbow him in the stomach before spinning around and delivering a roundhouse kick to his head to send him flying into his comrades.
"You're not like those Followers. You're just monsters that look like humans, which means, I don't have to hold back!" Witch declared as she slipped on two of rings.
[Ice, Please.]
[Kkkkkkori~! Kkkkkkori~!]
[Connect, Please.]
A blue version of Witch's magic circle appeared under her feet. The circle rose up and switched her into Ice Style.
Witch reached into her magic circle and pulled out her WizarSwordGun, now armed, Witch charged for them again as she switched the weapon to sword mode. With speed of Ice Style, Witch dashed towards the Combatmen group before her and began slashing them one after the other. Several sparks flew into the air with each slash of the blade, the Shocker Coven henchmen had no way to counter her speed as Witch appeared behind the group and opened the Hand Author on the WizarSwordGun.
[C'mon slashing, shake hands! C'mon slashing, shake hands!]
}ICE, SLASH STRIKE!{
The blade of the WizarSwordGun was wrapped in ice and blue energy. With a single horizontal slash of her weapon, Witch launched a blue crescent wave straight for the small horde of Combatment. Once the crescent hit, all of them were encased in ice, and a second later, all of them shattered to pieces.
Ichigo struck two Combatmen in the face, one after the other. A third was about to attack him from behind, but Ichigo threw a back kick, hitting him square in the chest and sending that mook straight into the wall of a building. A fourth attacked with a sword, but Ichigo caught him by the wrist before the Combatman could bring down his blade. The first Rider threw a jab into the Combatman's face, disorienting him and granting Ichigo enough time to time to snap kick another in the face, sending that other one flopping onto his back. For the one he still held onto, Ichigo noticed that Man Spider began spitting out darts from its mouth and towards him. Thinking quickly, Ichigo used the Combatman as a shield, letting the darts him in the back before he tossed him to the side and let him explode.
"I'm back from the dead, Ichigo! And this time, I'll take you with me straight to Hell!" Man Spider proclaimed.
"You can try, but the result will be the same as all the others before!" Ichigo retorted.
Nigo was running down the line of Combatmen, blocking and striking each one he came across or tried to slash him with their blades. At the end of the line was Sasori Tokagues, who came at him with an overhand strike of his left pincer claw. Nigo blocked the attack, catching in the gap of an "X" formation he made with his arms. The Legendary Rider pushed the pincer away and began repeatedly punching Sasori Tokagues in the chest before backing away and throwing a kick. The hybrid Kaijin rolled around the ground before managing to get back to his feet. The hybrid released a white steam that shot towards Nigo, washing over him as several sparks flew off his body. Nigo managed to roll out of the stream and began running towards the hybrid Kaijin as he cocked back his left fist and struck him in the face.
V3 moved quickly through the Combatmen. He ducked under the first one's sword strike and managed to throw a spin kick to another. A third foolishly tried to attack the legend, thinking he was open, but V3 proved him wrong by spinning around him, practically rolling off the Combatman's body. He threw a snap kick to a fourth Combatman, sending him in a group of his comrades before grabbing another and throwing him over his shoulder. Just then, V3 caught movement out of the corner of his left eye. The Legendary Rider quickly lunged forward, tumbling about before he jumped back to his feet and beheld Hasami Jaguar. V3 and Hasami Jaguar squared up before charging at each other. Hasami Jaguar came in swinging his blade hands, but V3 was careful to dodge them, knowing that those blades had the ability to dissolve through most matter. While his Rider form would provide protection, it couldn't take too many hits before it eventually did some serious damage.
"Hook Arm!" Riderman exclaimed.
The Hook Arm appeared over his right forearm. With a fling of that arm, Riderman launched the hook and cable and had it latch around a chimney as he reeled himself up a bit and began swinging towards a group of Combatmen, kicking them in the face one after the other before having the rope detach. He rolled around on the ground and got into a kneeling stance as he raised his right arm.
"Power Arm!"
The Hook Arm disappeared and was replaced with a mechanical claw. Once armed, Riderman charged into the Comatmen and began slashing at them with his weapon. Sparks flew through the air in his wake with each successive hit. Once he was done, each of the Combatmen he struck were on the ground and then dissolved into the purple smoke from whence they came. Just then, Riderman heard a loud, but familiar, buzzing sound. Riderman looked up just in time as Bee Beastman, narrowly avoiding the poison barbed proboscis. The Bee Beastman did a quick turn and dove for Riderman with his spear-like arms. Riderman dodged the flyby attack once again, but this time switched out his arms.
"Sickle Arm!"
The Power Arm switched to another peanut shaped attachment, this time it was a sickle with a long cable attached to it. Riderman took the sickle into his left hand and twirled it around by the cable. When Bee Beastman swooped in for another attack, Riderman rolled out of the way, and tossed the sickle towards Bee Beastman. The sickle flew towards the monster and caught its wing. With a tug of the cable, the blade sliced through his wing, and made Bee Beastman fall out of the sky and back to ground level.
X was using his Ridol Whip to slash through multiple Combatmen. He was currently engaged with two of them in a bit of swordplay. Blocking their strikes or parrying them into a lunging thrust. One after the Combatmen fell before him, but that's when Neptune came in with his trident, thrusting it forth in an attempt to skewer X, but luckily, X managed to use the Ridol Whip to divert the direction of the trident. Letting the shaft scrape along the Ridol Whip until he managed to push off Neptune and put some distance between them so that he could better get into a fighting stance.
Amazon was running along the buildings' rooftops as a few Combatment chased after him. Two of them appeared in his path, but the wild Rider didn't stop. He ran at full speed and grabbed them by the face. He dragged them along for the ride before jumping up and slamming them both onto the flat roof ahead of them. They tried to get back up, but Amazon hit them both with a swipe of his claws, launching them off the roof and onto the hard ground below. The ones who were pursuing him had managed to catch up, but Amazon made them regret that as he used his sharp claws to slash at them one after the other, filling the air with sparks before jumping off the roof and landing on the ground. The Crocodile Beastman charged for Amazon opening its wide jaws as it tried to clamp them down on him. But Amazon managed to catch the monster's lower and upper jaws in his hands and used his great strength to keep them from biting down on him. It turned into a bit of a tug of war as Crocodile Beastman pushed against Amazon, while Amazon dug his heels, trying to overpower the monster.
Heka was surrounded by the Comatmen, each of them had their eyes locked onto her as they waved their swords in the air.
"Huh, let's see. About twenty of you, and only one of me. Let's even these odds a bit," said Heka.
The golden Rider drew a circle with Lady Luck and struck the ground with the blade end of her staff. A large amount of Abomination goo poured out of the circle, elevating Heka up on it like a tower. After a few seconds, parts of that Abomination tower began to separate, and reform into slender, four eyed Abomination golems, each one's arms were shaped into a single edge blade. In total there were twenty, one for each of the Combatmen.
"Abominations! ATTACK!" Heka ordered.
The twenty Abomination golems raised their blades and did as their master commanded. The goo creatures easily maneuvered around the sword strikes of the Combatmen, and whenever they were hit, their goo bodies quickly reformed. The Abomination golems slashed at each of their opponents, making sparks dance in the air as each Combatman was felled and reduced to purple smoke. The ground began to rumble, the Abomination golems and Heka turned in the direction where they saw a dust cloud forming. That's when they saw Rhinoceros Mutant charging full speed towards them. The Abomination golems dashed towards him and readied their blades to cut him down. But the Kaijin was able to ram through each of them, using his sharp horn strength to splatter the goo creations on the walls and ground. The Kaijin was not stopping, its sights were locked squarely on Heka. The golden Rider hurriedly replaced her right ring and inserted it into her MagiDriver.
[Call to Arms: Sphinx Shield!]
Heka dismissed Lady Luck as her shield appeared. She held her ground as Rhinoceros Mutant slammed against her shield, making it ring like a bell throughout the area as a shockwave erupted from the impact. Heka gritted her teeth as she pushed back against the monster trying to pierce through her shield with his horn, and at the same time trying to overpower her.
ZX was in the middle of a melee. Using his ninja-like skills to jump off the sides of the buildings as he grabbed one of the Combatmen and tossed him into the air, and kicked him into the crowd of Combatmen. ZX landed back into the fray as he drove a right hook into the side of another one's face, knocking him aside. A third Combatman charged him, but ZX managed to grab him and vault him over his head by going to the ground. Once back up, ZX roundhouse kicked a fifth Combatman and held a ready stance as the others started to circle around him. That's when ZX heard several cannon shots being fired, prompting him to jump straight up into the air and watch as the Combatmen below him were destroyed by friendly fire. Across the way, ZX saw Tiger-Roid, all three cannons were trained him as the cyborg beast fired his cannons yet again.
The red and silver Rider ran across the rooftop and shouted, "Yet again, you show no comradery towards your own on the battlefield! I will not stand for this again!"
Skyrider flew in, using his speed and momentum to strike at all the Combatmen in his path. Several of them were thrown to the sides as sparks flew off their bodies, turning into smoke about defeat. The flying Rider landed back in the middle of the street and ran for the rest of them. Skyrider dodged one of the Combatmen and struck him in the back with a knife hand strike, sending him careening into a kiosk. The second tried to slash him, but Skyrider blocked the attack and threw a side kick that made that henchman fly into a wall, with rubble piling on top of him before he turned into smoke. Skyrider closed in on a third as he threw two punches to his face, and a third punch to another that had come to assist. The flying RIder was about to attack another but found his left arm struggling to finish his punch. That's when he was whipped away and flung into the air, spinning head over heel. Skyrider pressed down on the devices on his belt, activating his flight capability, he looked around and that's when he spotted Gameleojin, appearing for a moment before disappearing again.
Super-1 came in punching several of the Combatmen, turning them into smoke upon defeat. The silver and black Rider threw himself at one of the Combatmen, grabbing ahold of him as the two rolled around on the ground before kicking him hard into a group of other Combatmen. Super-1 threw a side kick to another, launching them into a stand as they evaporated into smoke. The ground below him started to shake, making Super-1 jump away as something broke through from the underground, sending debris flying in different directions, with some of it hitting Super-1 and sending him to the ground again. Super-1 quickly sprang to his feet as he saw KomaThunder ready to fight.
Crusader took out one of his rings and quickly activated it.
[Crow Scythe, Now.]
A black and purple crow manifested before Crusader before it transformed into the Crow Scythe. Crusader twirled his weapon around and charged for the Combatmen. With great skill, Crusader spun his weapon around and began easily cleaving through one Combatman after the other, leaving behind purple gashes on their bodies before they turned into smoke. Crusader heard the roar of flames and looked over his shoulder to see just that, a roaring burst of flames was heading straight towards him.
[Falcon Shield Wing, Now.]
[Eagle Lightning Wing, Now.]
Before the flames could hit, a blue and silver construct falcon and a yellow and silver construct eagle appeared on either side of Crusader's back as they merged onto his back and transformed into the Eagle Lightning Wing and Falcon Shield Wing. A blue shield bubble appeared around Crusaders as the flames washed over him. The flames were intense, but thankfully the shield managed to withstand the attack. Once the flames died down, Crusader was able to see the Fire Kong standing there, ready to fight.
"I've seen some crazy looking Phantoms, but you're by far the strangest monster I've seen yet," said Crusader.
Stronger slowly walked through the group of Combatmen, blocking each attack as it came and hitting back with twice the power of their own. Stronger grabbed another of the Combatmen and tossed them like a ragdoll into others. He slid to the left and performed a side kick, throwing them into a wall. Another attacked from behind, but Stronger hit them in the gut with a elbow strike, and took that Combatman down with a sweeping kick. More started to gather around him, but stronger raised his right hand as electrical energy surged around it.
"Electro Fire!"
Stronger struck the ground below him, and within seconds he released a field of electrical energy that zapped every Combatman around Stronger, turning them into purple smoke in a matter of seconds. The sound of automatic gunfire. Stronger quickly ran to the left as the energy bullets pelted the area. Stronger rolled back up to his feet and saw Kikkaijin Gangaru, the little "joey"-like creature's mouth was spinning, showing that it was the one responsible for shooting at him.
RX had pulled out his Revolcane, slashing through one Combatman after the other like a master swordsman. Several Combatmen raised their swords and came down with a vertical slash. However, RX took a fighting stance and spun around, swinging his Revolcane around and swatting away all the swords that tried to cut him down. The strength of RX's swing managed to knock the swords out of their hands, and once disarmed, RX quickly slashed each of them before returning to the center. Each of them fell and turned into purple smoke, two of them tried to attack, using the smoke as a cover. However, RX made them pay for that by thrusting the Revolcane into one of them and kicking the other with a roundhouse, throwing them to the ground before stabbing that one as well. Culculten leaped off the nearby rooftop and managed to tackle RX to the ground. The slimy monster licked its chops, RX's Revolcane had rolled across the ground, away from RX. The Child of the Sun struck Culculten three times in its side before headbutting him in the face. The Kaijin roared in pain and got off RX, allowing him to roll away and grab his Revolcane, ready to face Culculten.
After slashing through another group of Combatmen, Witch decided to turn up the heat and dispatch as many as she could in one shot. Witch took off her Ice Style ring and replaced it with her Fire Style ring. Once she had, Witch switched the position of the Hand Author on her Driver and scanned it.
[Fire, Please.]
[Hi~HI~HIIII~!]
A red magic circle rose over Witch, switching the hero of hope into her fierce Fire Style.
Once she switched forms, the Witch changed the WizarSwordGun into gun mode and opened the Hand Author.
[C'mon shooting, shake hands! C'mon shooting, shake hands!]
} FIRE! SHOOTING STRIKE! {
Witch pointed her WizarSwordGun at an incoming horde of Combatmen and unleashed a blazing, magical stream of flames that seared through every one of the minions of the Shocker Coven and destroyed them on the spot. Once they were defeated, Witch was about to move onto the next, but suddenly, her body was lifted and thrown towards a building. But it wasn't over as Witch was taken out of the building and thrown with the same speed and ease as before.
"What's going on?!"
"No matter how powerful you are, Rider, you're still not powerful enough to escape the basic laws of magnetism!"
The hero of hope glanced towards the sound of the voice, and that's when she saw Commander Jishaku. The magnet Kaijin had pointed his staff at her, using it to throw her around like a ragdoll through multiple buildings. But right after he threw her into the next building, something happened, he was not able to stop bring her back up.
[FIRE OWL.]
[Moyasu! MO~YA~SU!]
A pillar of flames erupted from the house that Witch was thrown into, and a moment later, Witch jumped out of the building, now in her Fire Owl Style.
"Contrary to popular belief, I do remember one thing from Science Class! What happens when you heat up a magnet!"
[Flare, Please.]
Fire enveloped both of Witch's hands as she landed on the ground and pointed both of them towards the monster. Roaring flames bellowed down the street and towards Commander Jishaku. Within seconds the monster was surrounded by flames, sparks erupted from all over his body. Within mere seconds Commander Jishaku's magnetic powers were weakened incredibly before he managed to toss himself out of the flames.
Ichigo continued to dodge Man Spider's darts until he managed to get in close and throw an uppercut into the Man Spider's jaw, stopping the attack. Man Spider cried out in pain as he backed away from the Rider. Ichigo widened his stance and jumped straight into the air before flipping once and extending his right foot. Scarlet energy coated his right foot as Ichigo shouted, "Rider Kick!" Man Spider was unable to stop what was coming as Ichigo's kick struck him dead on, sending his energy surging into the monster before exploding on the spot.
Nigo managed to punch Sasori Tokagues in the gut, before throwing a spin kick to his face to put some distance between them. Once in position, Nigo flipped into the air, bounced off a wall, and spun in midair as he thrusted his feet forward. "Rider Revolving Kick!" Both of Nigo's feet glowed scarlet was his kick struck the hybrid Kaijin in the back, sending him flying forwards before exploding on the ground a moment later.
V3 back flipped away from a swipe of Hasami Jaguar's hand blades as more Combatmen joined his side. The Legendary Rider jumped into the air and extended his right leg as crimson light coated it. "V3 Kick!" V3 launched himself forward with the energy he built up and crashed his kick right into Hasami Jaguar. The released energy had a cascade effect as it not only destroyed him, but the Combatmen who had gathered around him. V3 landed on the opposite end of the fiery explosion and made his signature "V3" gesture.
"Rope Arm!" Riderman switched out arm devices and launched his cable at Bee Beastman, wrapping it around his body before launching him into the air. With his severed wing, the insect Kaijin had no means of which to fly or maneuver away from what was coming next. "Machine Gun Arm!" A gatling gun weapon appeared on Riderman's forearm, and after taking aim, unleashed a barrage on the monster, like shooting skeet. Once the barrage hit him, Bee Beastman exploded in a ball of fire.
Super-1 jumped straight into the air and shouted, "Super Rider Moon Surface Kick!" An aura of silver, blue, opal wrapped around his foot. Super-1 descended like a comet from space straight towards the spinning top Kaijin and drove that kick right into his chest. The monster released a grunt of pain before exploding as Super-1 landed.
Stronger dodged the spring punches of Kikkaijin Gangaru one after the other, which made it difficult as the monster was keeping him at long range to prevent his electrical attacks from reaching. But that was not going to save the Kaijin from its fate. Stronger dodged one more of his punches by jumping off, and then landing on that same arm. Once the spring retracted, Stronger let it carry him until he was halfway and jumped off it. "Stronger Electro Kick!" Lightning coated his right foot as Stronger hit him square in the chest, sending hundreds of thousands of volts of electricity into the monster before it exploded.
X threw his Ridol Stick into the air and grabbed onto it. The Legendary Rider swung on it, performing some somersaults as he launched himself into the air. A red "X" formed in front of his right foot as he extended and flew straight for Neptune. "X Kick!" Neptune thrust with his trident, but when X's kick landed, the weapon shattered like glass as the glowing red "X" was branded onto Neptune's chest as the full kick landed. The Kaijin erupted at that moment, turning into a small smoldering crater after X landed.
Tiger-Roid continued to pelt the rooftops with cannon fire, ZX stopped, but when he did, Tiger-Roid blasted that spot enveloping with smoke and fire. After a moment, ZX jumped out of the smoke and extended his right leg as bright red light wrapped around his foot. "ZX Kick!" The Legendary Rider hit Tiger-Roid, too slow to fire back as ZX's energy caused him to explode.
Skyrider was having a hard time trying to find him, but luckily the Kaijin managed to run into a stand that was filled with different spice powders. The spices burned the monster's eyes and nostrils, and even clung to his body, making him visible to Skyrider. Now that he could see him, Skyrider channeled his powers. The wind tinted green with his energy, creating a mini tornado around him as he dove straight towards the exposed Kaijin. "Sky Kick!" Skyrider struck Gameleojin, throwing him off the roof as the tornado of energy wrapped around him. A moment later, the monster met the same fate as its comrades
Amazon managed to overpower Crocodile Beastman, throwing him off to the side. The Wildman Rider's right hand glowed bright yellow as he channeled his energy and jumped into the air. "Wild Slash!" Amazon came down with a vertical slash of his claw, cutting a huge yellow gash on Crocodile Beastman before he blew up.
RX dashed towards Culculten and slashed him across the chest, stopping behind the Kaijin once he completed the first half of the attack. The black and green Rider quickly turned around and thrust the Revolcane through Culculten's midsection. Sparks flew out like a geyser as RX drew out his weapon, allowing the monster to fall backwards and detonate a moment later.
Crusader was flying circles around Fire Kong as he launched several lightning feathers at him. The ground around the cyborg ape, and even his body exploded, showering the area with sparks. "Time to end this!" Crusader took out another of his rings and slipped it over his right hand as he scanned it with his Driver.
[ ENDING STRIKE, RIGHT NOW! ]
The feathers of the Eagle Lightning Wing flared as multiple feathers began to grow out from the wing, creating a huge wing made of lightning laced feathers. With a flap of that wing, Crusader launched all the feathers on the wing. The feathers swarmed around Fire Kong in a spiraling tornado, and after a moment, the lightning charged up and released a huge pillar of lightning that zapped Fire Kong to cinders.
Ichigo and Nigo teamed up to battle Siomaneking, the monster released a deadly foam blast that nearly hit both of them. But Ichigo came in from the left and punched the monster across its face. While Nigo came in from the right and punched it in the face again. Both Riders joined at the center and struck with a double thrust kick, the force of the blow sent the monster skidding on his heels and greatly weakened from the double attack. Ichigo and Nigo nodded to each other, and both jumped straight into the air as their left and right feet glowed with scarlet light. "Rider Double Kick!" Ichigo and Nigo launched themselves through the air and struck Siomaneking in the chest, their combined energies surged through the monster, sending him flying into the air where he detonated spectacularly.
Witch and Heka met up back to back, and both magical Rider's glanced over their shoulders at each other.
"Having fun, Ams?" Witch asked.
"A bit, but I'm getting tired of fighting these guys," Heka replied.
"Then let's take them down and go for the final boss!"
[Call to Arms: Griffon Ax!]
[ VERY NICE, QUETZALCOATL! FABULOUS! ]
A construct of La Lechuza appeared from a magic circle above Witch. The construct flew around her once before merging with her back and creating the Owl Wings. Heka had dismissed her shield, deciding to go full offense as the Griffon Ax materialized in her left hand. Afterwards, Heka reinserted the Griffon Ax ring into the Driver and turned it once again.
} Griffon Ax: Blazing Strike! {
Heka swung her battle ax around and around, as she did, the ax started to ignite with golden flames. At the same time, Witch's wings flared up with magical flames as she ascended higher into the sky. Rhinoceros Mutant either did not care or was ignorant of Heka's might as he charged straight for her. At the same time, Commander Jishaku tried to call upon his magnetic powers, but Witch's earlier attack had completely nullified his magnetism. Heka stopped twirling her ax around, both hands, and brought it down in an overhead strike, hitting the ground and sending a vertical wave of blazing golden flames and energy created a fissure in the ground as it headed straight towards the Kaijin. Rhinoceros Mutant stopped in its tracks as the Blazing Strike sliced him right down the middle. At the same time, Witch released two flaming tornadoes from her wings that roared and engulfed Commander Jishaku. In a matter of moments, both monsters exploded ending their reign of terror.
"LOOK OUT!"
"LOOK OUT!"
Witch and Heka heeded their Inner Phantoms' warning as they went on guard just in time for Owl Necromancer to come flying down the air and slashing both of them. Heka managed to block the first strike with her battle ax while Witch used her wings as a makeshift shield. But they were unprepared for how fast she was. Owl Necromancer disappeared like a shadow and reappeared behind both Riders as she gave them another slash. This time it connected, sending sparks flying from Witch and Heka's backs. They were about to turn around to face her, but she was too fast. Disappearing like a shadow and as she slashed at them from many directions. Owl Necromancer jumped straight into the air and hovered above them, her scythe glowed with black and violet energy before she slashed the air below her, forming a large "X" crescent. With another swing of the scythe, she launched it, and in the next moment, a huge explosion erupted from Witch and Heka's position. Owl Necromancer smirked, believing her power to be superior to the two magical Riders, but they weren't even getting started yet.

[CHAMPION~!]
[THE GODDESS ASCENDS!]
When the smoke cleared, Witch and Heka had entered their final forms, Wonder Style and Champion.
"Don't get cocky," Heka warned.
"Now we're getting serious," said Witch.
Owl Necromancer growled as she descended and readied to cut off their heads. But the moment she was close, Witch and Heka disappeared, only pink sparkles and golden embers were left in their wake. Owl Necromancer's scythe cut through the air, and just now realized she hit nothing. In the blink of an eye, sparks erupted from Owl Necromancer's chest as golden embers wafted past her. And in the next blink, another strike to the chest created more sparks as pink sparkles fluttered through the air. Witch and Heka reappeared a few feet in front of Owl Necromancer, both having flipped their staffs around so that they were now wielding them blades up. The magical Riders disappeared again and began assaulting Owl Necromancer from all sides, the only thing able to be seen was a dance of gold and pink streaks, along with gold embers and pink sparkles. The leader of the Shocker Coven was unable to defend or counterattack, the only thing she could do was stand there and let the two young Riders continue their attack. Witch and Heka reappeared a few feet away, again, but this time Owl Necromancer looked as if she was on her last legs.
"Let's take a page out of our sempai's book! Follow my lead," said Witch.
"I'm right behind you!"
}} WONDEROUS! KICK STRIKE! AMAZING! {{
[LET'S GO! KICK STRIKE!]
Witch pink sparkling wings formed behind her back as Witch's right leg glowed bright pink light. At the same time, Heka's left foot shined with golden light. Witch's visor glowed at the same time as Heka's eyes as both Riders jumped straight into the air, flipped once, and launched themselves forward as a construct of Bast's head formed around Heka, fangs bared and ready to bite.
"Rider Double Magic Kick!"
"Rider Double Magic Kick!"
Owl Necromancer slashed the air in front of her until she created an eight-pointed star crescent and fired it at the incoming Riders. Witch and Heka released a loud battle cry as their kicks crashed into Owl Necromancer's attack, destroying it as they passed through and hit Owl Necromancer dead on. The leader of the Shocker Coven gritted her teeth as she tried to withstand it, but against the combined might of Witch and Heka, it was a futile effort. The jaws of Bast came climping down as Witch's wings flared with power. At the same time, a huge explosion took place with the Rider couple appearing on the other side, shadows cast upon them from the flames of the explosion as their visor and eyes continued to glow.
Witch panted and turned around to see their work. "I think we got her."
Just then, a shadow formed in the darkness. It stumbled about and revealed itself to be Owl Necromancer, her body slowly breaking down into particles of purple light.
"You just don't know when to quit, do you?" Heka questioned.
"E-E-Even if I-I-I die," she sputtered, "T-T-The Shocker Coven w-w-will live on!" She then spread her arms out wide. "O-O-O Great One, I-I-I leave them to you!" She then fell backwards and exploded in a massive fireball.
Witch let out a sigh of relief, but then a giant purple smoke cloud erupted from the flames and red eyes glowed from it.
"THE FACT THAT YOU WERE ABLE TO DEFEAT HER MEANS YOU'RE TRULY FORMIDABLE FOES!" a voice came from the cloud. This made the Riders grow uneasy.
"Who are you?!" Witch demanded.
"That voice." Ichigo murmured.
"HA-HA-HA-HA, I AM THE GREAT LEADER OF THE SHOCKER COVEN!" the cloud responded, "KAMEN RIDERS, FAREWELL!" The cloud then flew through the sky.
"What was that?!" Crusader demanded.
"Shocker's Leader!" Ichigo informed.
"As well as Gel-Shocker's Leader!" Nigo added.
"And Destron's!" V3 said as Riderman grinded his teeth.
"The one behind G.O.D.!" X-Rider explained.
"Gedon and Garander!" Amazon added.
"Black Satan and Delza's Leader!" Stronger exclaimed.
"Neo Shocker's Leader!" Skyrider sneered.
"He was behind both Dogma's!" Super-1 explained.
"Badan's Generalissimo!" ZX exclaimed.
"And Emperor Crisis!" RX finished.
"Where's he even heading?" Witch asked.
"Allow me." Super-1 replied. "Change! Radar Hands!" His gloves turned gold with blue disks on the palms and a silver missile on the forearm. "Radar Eye! Fire!" The missile on his glove shot out in the direction of the cloud. They all looked at the disk on Super-1's hand and saw an industrial building.
"Where is that?" X-Rider asked.
"Blight Industries!" Heka replied with worry in her voice.
"We gotta get there now!" Ichigo stated.
"Right!" Witch replied as she and Heka slipped on their Ride Rings.
[Ride, Please.]
[Ride the Sky!]
Just then eleven motorcycles made their way towards their respective Riders.
"Crusader, where's your bike?" Riderman asked as he mounted his Riderman Machine.
"Well…I-I-I…" Crusader stuttered.
"Get on!" Riderman demanded. As soon as Crusader was on the Riderman Machine, the fourteen Riders set out towards Blight Industries.
