On the country roads, a man was walking with a bundle on his back. He had long brown hair, a thick beard and sky blue eyes, he was wearing heavy cargo pants, a black wifebeater, a pair of gloves with metal protectors on the knuckles and a pair of boots. The man was walking in the direction of a large city with a blank stare.
As soon as he reached the city, the man walked for a while before he heard his stomach crying out.
"Maybe I should eat something." Said the man.
The man continued his walk and went in search of a restaurant.
At the edge of town, in a house inside an old scrap-yard, a young girl was eating her breakfast accompanied by a short old man. The girl had long blond hair and black eyes, she was wearing a mechanical suit covered with grease and oil.
"Hurry up and eat, you have to get me some parts for our order." Said the old man.
"I know, grandfather." Said the young girl.
"And don't forget to take Mrs. Kourin's order to her restaurant, Yukina. She needs it." Said the old man.
"I know, you don't need to remind me." Said the young girl. "I'll go grandpa as long as it's early. See you tonight."
Yukina walked out of the house with a large bag on her back and got on a makeshift scooter. The vehicle seemed to be made of several salvaged pieces. She put on her helmet and a pair of glasses before starting the engine and riding away.
Yukina sped through the city streets before arriving at a small noodle restaurant. She parked her scooter in front of the restaurant and entered. Yukina saw that the restaurant was completely empty except for one customer.
"Damn, the business is completely empty." Said Yukina.
"Tell me about it, kid." Said a female voice.
Yukina turned towards the voice to see a beautiful woman with red hair and white streaks, she also had brown eyes. She was wearing a jacket, a chef's apron and she had a cigarette in her mouth.
"Since the arrival of the militia, it's a mess." Said the woman.
"I agree with that, Kourin." Yukina began to rummage through her bag and pulled out a box. "By the way here's your order, grandpa spent all night on it."
"Thank you." Said Kourin. "I'll be able to make pasta for my noodles again."
"Hey you know who that guy is over there?" Yukina pointed discreetly to the only customer present. He had long brown hair, a thick beard and sky blue eyes, he was wearing heavy cargo pants, a black wifebeater, a pair of gloves with metal protectors on the knuckles and a pair of boots. "He's pretty cute."
"No idea, he's not talkative. All he wanted was a bowl of ramen, after that, complete silence." Said Kourin.
"Sad, I wish I had his number." Said Yukina. "I'll leave you alone, I have to bring back some pieces for the old man."
"See you later then." Said Kourin.
Yukina came out of the restaurant and saw a purple campaign bus with the logo of a phoenix spitting ice. On top of the bus were two armed soldiers, wearing full body suits that gave them the appearance of a skeleton. Between the two soldiers was a politician.
"A curfew is now in place at 8pm, if anyone is out after curfew without permission, that person will be shot on the spot. Remember, if you have a problem, ask an officer on the scene for help. And finally please do not rebel against the Phenix soldiers, rebelling will only send you to a re-education camp." Said the politician.
"I still can't believe it..." Yukina whispered as she got on her scooter.
Yukina started the engine of her vehicle and continued shopping. In every street she passed, she saw a dozen soldiers armed to the teeth.
At the restaurant, the man had just finished his bowl. He got up and went to Kourin.
"How much will it be?" The man asked.
"900 Yen." Answered Kourin as the man began to count the coins in his hand. "What is your name actually?"
"Kyoshiro..." Said the man as he counted his coins. "Here." Kyoshiro paid for his meal and left.
Kyoshiro walked out of the restaurant and looked at all the soldiers present, the man was filled with anger when he saw the uniform they were wearing. He took out a picture from his pocket, on the picture was Kyoshiro wearing a white lab coat, a young woman and three men in front of a building. The young woman had short red hair, brown eyes and she was wearing a skirt, a beige sweater and a lab coat.
The first of the men was very small, looking almost like a child, he had short blond hair and black eyes, he was wearing a white suit with a red tie. The second man looked to be in his fifties and was the tallest in the photo, he had long gray hair and blue eyes, he was wearing a gray wifebeater, a thick jacket that he had tied to his belt and thick cargo pants. The last man was of medium height, he had short blond hair and blood red eyes, he wore a black suit with white stripes and a black tie like coal.
"I will find you all and I will do to you what you did to me ..." Said Kyoshiro with a look filled with hatred.
Kyoshiro continued his way, but after passing some streets, he saw the violence that the soldiers allowed themselves, surprisingly, he was not surprised by this. Kyoshiro continued his way serenely before arriving in front of an electronic store.
Kyoshiro began to search his bag before saying. "I'm missing some parts, I need to buy some now."
He entered the store and without observing the aisles and shelves went to the cashier to ask. "Do you have any servo motors and motherboards?"
"Yeah sure, let me go to the back store." Said the cashier before leaving.
As Kyoshiro waited, a group of soldiers came in and started laughing while destroying some shelves. A soldier approached a customer and asked her. "What are you doing here?" Pointing a gun at her.
"I'm just here to help my grandfather." Said the customer.
"Show me your papers!" Ordered the Soldier before the customer gave them to him. "Yukina Kuroriki... and you are from out of town, what are you doing here?" He asked.
"Like I said, my grandfather needs parts for his business." Said Yukina.
"Alright and make it quick!" Said the Soldier before going to Kyoshiro. "And what are you doing here?"
"I'm here to buy some pieces, that's all." Said Kyoshiro in a cold tone.
"Your papers please!" Ordered the Soldier, but Kyoshiro took out a flask having the phoenix logo that the other soldiers uniform and drank a shot. "Your paper!" Ordered the Soldier in a louder tone.
One of the soldiers broke out in a cold sweat at the sight of the flask before saying. "Sergeant, back away from this man right now..."
"What's the matter?" Asked the sergeant surprised by the reaction of one of these soldiers.
"Sergeant, this flask belongs to the directors of Phoenix and only to them, but the directors are not in town. " Said the soldier.
In fear each of the soldiers and their sergeant aimed their assault rifles at Kyoshiro.
"You will follow me right away, sir!" Ordered the sergeant, but Kyoshiro grabbed the barrel of his gun.
"Direction north, northwest power 100G." Kyoshiro whispered when all of a sudden...
*BAM*
The sergeant's weapon and its owner flew at full speed towards one of the walls. The sergeant tried to retrieve his weapon, but it seemed to be stuck in the wall. The soldiers under the sergeant's orders were stunned because they had just seen.
"Stop looking at me and shoot him!" Ordered the sergeant.
Kyoshiro quickly grabbed the barrels of the weapons before whispering. "Minus 50G." In an instant the weapons quickly flew up to the ceiling with their owner. "Hey!" Said Kyoshiro gaining Yukina's attention.
"Yes?" Yukina asked.
"I heard you live outside the city, is that true?" Kyoshiro asked.
"Yeah, that's right..." Said Yukina.
"Take me there." Kyoshiro ordered.
"Excuse me?" Yukina asked surprised.
"I said, take me there." Kyoshiro ordered.
"And if I say no? ..." Yukina asked a little frightened because of what had just happened.
"Do you know what happens to the human body when it reaches the stratosphere without protection?" Kyoshiro said.
"Let's go!" Said Yukina in fear. "I really don't want to know what will happen to me!" She thought.
After several minutes of driving, Yukina and Kyoshiro arrived at the scrap-yard. Kyoshiro was surprised by the place. Yukina parked her scooter while Kyoshira looked around, Yukina with great caution entered and saw her grandfather in the living room reading the newspaper.
"Hi, Yukina, how were the deliveries?" Asked the old man.
"Oh, pretty good... I brought back what Kourin needed and then I managed to get what you wanted... " Yukina was stressed by Kyoshiro still outside. "Say old man, you did worked for Phoenix?"
"Yeah, why?" Asked the old man.
"Oh just to know because there is a guy in front of the house who was attacked by Phoenix soldiers and now he needs my help ... " Said Yukina before receiving a disapproving look from her grandfather.
"What have you done now?" Asked the old man.
"For once I did nothing!" Said Yukina. "I was at the store when the guy arrived then a group of soldiers also arrived then a whole mess of a mess also arrived!"
"Let's see it." Said the old man.
Yukina came out of her house accompanied by her grandfather and saw that Kyoshiro was searching a pile of electronic waste opening even some to retrieve specific parts. As soon as Kyoshiro noticed the presence of the duo, he got down from the pile of waste.
"Who are you?" Asked Kyoshiro in a cold tone.
"My name is Yujiro Kuroriki. I'm the owner of this scrap-yard. And your name is what?" Asked the old man.
"My name is Kyoshiro Komogawa." Said Kyoshiro in a cold tone. "Say, is this city the capital of the Phoenix government?
"It has been for almost 30 years." Answered Yujiro.
"Perfect..." Suddenly, Kyoshiro's attention was drawn to the entrance door of the scrap-yard. "Go inside."
"What?" Yukina asked in surprise.
Suddenly, an armored vehicle crashed into the gate and several other vehicles followed. The vehicles circled as soldiers emerged and aimed directly at Kyoshiro.
"Surrender now and no harm will be done to you!" Said one of the soldiers.
"Shut up, I have no reason to surrender to a group of fascists..." Said Kyoshiro coldly when all of a sudden.
*BANG*
One of the soldiers shot at Kyoshiro, but they all saw a completely unexpected result. The bullet had ricocheted off Kyoshiro's arm tearing off his skin and revealing that his arm was made completely of metal.
"You made the worst mistake of your life." Kyoshiro tore the skin off his arms revealing that he was completely mechanical. In an instant, Kyoshiro was in front of the soldier who had shot him and in one fell swoop tore off the top part of his skull leaving only the jawbone.
A geyser of blood covered the mechanical man as his eyes were filled with anger. "Die, you bastards." Blades came out of Kyoshiro's forearms and he used them to slice through the soldiers one by one while blocking any shots he might receive.
Yukina and Yujiro were both stunned by the violence and strength that Kyoshiro showed towards the soldiers. They saw the soldiers being dismembered, decapitated and disembowelled one by one, by one man. After a good ten minutes, all the soldiers who had come out of the vehicles were dead.
"Intriguing... I didn't think there would be another cyborg around here. Said a man getting out of one of the armored vehicles, unlike the soldiers, he was wearing a black suit and a pair of sunglasses and he had long blond hair.
"Cyborg?" Asked Yukina.
"If you want to fight, stay, if you want to live, get out." Kyoshiro said.
"You are much more violent than the file said, but who am I to say no a good fight!" Suddenly the man's skin began to explode revealing a monstrous appearance. He looked like a green humanoid Crocodile, he wore gladiator armor and was armed with a trident and net.
"Death is your choice." A belt appeared on Kyoshiro, the belt was red and green and the buckle was a kind of compass whose red needle pointed to the north. "Henshin..." Kyoshiro turned the needle to the south and hit it violently! All of a sudden an energy shock sent everything backwards, vehicles, corpses, Yukina, Yujiro and the Crocodile.
When Yukina got up she was surprised by Kyoshiro's new appearance. "Wow... a Kamen Rider, I thought they were all dead..." Kyoshiro was in a red jumpsuit with a green electric pattern, he had a pair of black boots and gloves, on top of the jumpsuit he was wearing a heavy gray armor with a red and green electric pattern. His helmet was red like the suit. He had two large green eyes, on the sides of the helmet were tips that looked like a small pair of wings and the mouthpiece looked like a row of sharp teeth.
"Kamen Rider Reverse... it's time to see the gravity of your actions!" Said Kyoshiro.
"Bring it on, traitor!" The gladiator threw his trident at such a speed that it felt like it pierced the skies, but surprising everyone Reverse had disappeared.
"Behind you." Said Reverse.
The crocodile turned around and with a cold sweat saw that Reverse was upside down in the air.
"...how?" Yujiro asked in surprise.
Reverse threw a jab at the crocodile's face, but even though the blow didn't seem to be strong, the gladiator was thrown back with such force that he crashed violently into several piles of trash. As the monster recovered his wits, Reverse calmly landed on the ground.
"You're too weak." Reverse turned the needle on his belt to the west. Red and green lightning appeared around Reverse. "Meteor Punch."
Before the crocodile could even get up, Reverse launched a powerful jab and burst of energy at the monster. The energy completely crushed the monster to the point that nothing was left of him.
"That's really the best they have." Said Reverse as he de-transformed. "What a weakling."
"You're a Kamen Rider!" Said Yukina impressed.
"Yeah and?" Asked Kyoshiro.
"That's awesome!" Said Yukina happily.
"Stop talking." Said Kyoshiro.
"I thought Phoenix killed all the Kamen Riders how are you here?!" Yukina asked curiously.
"Stop asking questions and take the cars back inside the shop, Yukina." Said Yujiro.
Yukina started to sulk as she drove off in one of the cars.
"Who are you?" Asked Yujiro.
"I'm Kyoshiro Komogawa, that's all you need to know." Said Kyoshiro.
"Are you looking for a place to live?" Asked Yujiro and Kyoshiro nodded his head in agreement as an answer. "You can stay here as long as you want as long as you bring back spare parts."
"Perfect." Said Kyoshiro.
"Good, now help us bring all these cars back, please?" Asked Yujiro.
Kyoshiro helped Yujiro and his granddaughter to bring the Phoenix cars to a large car shop.
At the top of a huge building belonging to Phoenix, in a large office was a man of medium height, he had short blond hair and blood red eyes, he was wearing a white suit with black stripes and a coal black tie. He was sitting quietly behind a large wooden desk, drinking wine with great joy, but breaking the present silence, he received a call.
The man put down his glass before answering the call. "What is it?"
"Sir, apparently, there was the appearance of an unregistered Cyborg not far from the capital." Said the interlocutor.
"Send a squad to deal with it." Ordered the man.
"We already have several squads, but we haven't heard back from them in several hours, and yet their vehicle beacons say they're still there." Said the interlocutor.
"Well ... send a general to take care of this problem." Said the man.
"Okay, Mr. Komogawa." Said the interlocutor before cutting the call.
The man stood up from his desk with a bag in hand and walked past a desk easel with the name "Dan Komogawa" written on it. He walked into his office and stopped in front of one of the walls that had hundreds of helmets on it. The helmets were all different in design and color, they were all covered with blood and cracked. The man searched his bag and took out a red and black helmet, it had two large yellow eyes with a flame appearance, one of which was cracked and the other completely destroyed, and it had a huge horn resembling a blade.
"My last hunt was rather amusing ..., a man who uses the power of books what an intriguing combination. Unfortunately for him the feather is not stronger than the sword." The man laid on the helmet on a pedestal that had the name of the owner marked on it. This person's name was "Kamen Rider Saber." "Dan, you really are the best Kamen Rider killer." The man said to himself.
Dan turned to a pedestal that was covered with a glass lid, unlike the other pedestals this one was dusty and empty. "I will find you Kamen Rider Reverse and you will finally die this time." Dan placed his hand on the lid.
Unlike the other pedestals, this one had in addition to the name of Kamen Rider Reverse, another name was present ... that of "Kyoshiro Komogawa".
