"How did you get to this world?!" Bella said as she pulled out her driver from the strap on her hip.

Erica just stayed in the water as she running the water in her hands onto the dry areas of her hair.

"Oh calm down, I came here to enjoy a good soak, not bury you six feet into the ground. As for how I knew about this place, well I do have your memories up to you coming to the World of Mirrors. So, knowing this place and how to get here was child's play. I've been here a couple times before while you've been off murdering everyone." She said cheerfully.

"You got some fu-" Bella voice was cut off as Erica vanished from the hot spring and appeared behind her in insane speed.

"You should just shut up and enjoy this soak. I don't come here to be stressed; I get that enough from Tobias. Now clothes off and get into the springs. I'm here to talk and then I'll leave. Besides, we are gonna be fighting each other, so let's enjoy the possibility of having one last bath in this world. Odds are, one of us won't be coming back here again after tonight. Keep being disobedient and I'll snap your neck right here." She said as she ran her fingernails up Bella's back.

Bella let go of her Neodecadriver and Erica gave a smile, "That's a good girl." She said as she reappeared in the spring. Bella got undressed and got inside as her wounds began to heal. "You know this world is very interesting. Uninhabited by humans except you and Travis. A place for him to have solitude from the life he's been living in all these years. A perfect paradise to escape from the hell anyone has been through. For him it was the human experimentation and witnessing the death of his friends, and for you I guess a place where you can run for a distraction of the millions and millions of corpses that lay all around you. Once tomorrow is over, this place will become mine and mine alone. Because once I'm done with you, I'm going to Travis next." Erica said as she ran her hand over her opposite arm with the hot water.

"You won't be winning tomorrow." Bella said confidently.

Erica raised an eyebrow as she kept washing herself.

"You really think you're all that and a bag of chips huh? Just because you got the powers of all the Riders? Ha that's hilarious. You don't even have all your memories of what that Driver was even for or what your destiny was supposed to be." Erica said as she noticed Bella's reaction.

"My father created this Driver for me." Bella said before she had a finger placed on her lips by Erica.

"The path you're on now was exactly what that Driver was meant for. You were to become the Destroyer of Worlds, and with the power of the Neodecadriver, you were to be the one to strike down Apollo Geist and take over. Not Tobias, and not Travis either. You were to be the most powerful Great Leader and the last one to bring back the First one. The Creator of Shocker. Now that responsibility falls onto Tobias who has developed a plan that will revive the Creator and end the multiverse in one fell swoop. You've already completed your part for the destruction of all life with obtaining all 9 missing Riders in the belt. Travis's journey is almost to an end as well. Once all the power in the worlds Travis is journeying through has been stolen and I bring his Neodiendriver and your Neodecadriver back to Tobias, we will begin the eradication of every world."

"Are you talking about Apollo Geist being my relative?" Bella asked.

Erica pointed a finger like a gun at Bella, "Bang. You're quite right. Your memories are still locked it would seem. I don't know what Geist did to make it so hard to wipe your memories but he did something. He really did try to make it to where you knew nothing about the path you were on and yet by some cruel and twisted fate and even though you've greatly strayed hundreds of miles from the path you were meant to be on, you've found yourself right back here, AND it's all thanks to Travis appearing in your world. It's almost like you are the reason why his life has been so miserable and painful for the past 14 years. If you and Apollo just stuck to the script for the roles you were played, Travis may have never been involved and your precious home that wasn't even your world, wouldn't have been destroyed." Erica began chuckling as she hopped out of the spring leaving Bella to stare at the water in disgust from everything she had said.

"It's all my fault…That can't be true…You're lying…" She said in a low tone.

"Well let's think about it this way. If you want the truth, there's a dimension you can jump too called the World of the Past. Anyone who wanders in that world can be shown things they have forgotten. Or anything really. In addition, think about this. Why does Travis have the power to travel worlds? I'm sure you've been told in the time you've spent together that Apollo Geist was looking for someone who could World Travel. The Neodecadriver grants its user that power, but the Diendriver doesn't. Plus, your driver is bonded only to you. A safety feature so that no one else can pick it up and use it. Let me save you some time from thinking, Apollo Geist was going to transfer the power to destroy Riders to the Diendriver and whoever was to be Kamen Rider Diend would be given the title and the power of Destroyer of Worlds. But the moment Travis got his hands on the gun, he ran away with his awakened abilities given only by human experimentation while being told it's an ability that was hidden deep within oneself. Everything was planned from the beginning…Even if something were to happen to you." Erica pointed her finger at Bella as she leered at her with a wicked smile and her piercing yellow eyes as a black portal appeared behind her and she walked through laughing maniacally.

Bella was staring at disgust with herself as pieces of her memories from her younger days began rushing through her mind. She was clutching the sides of her head as she let out a deafening scream that echoed the forest around her. The memories were stabbing at her brain like glass and she was seeing vivid images of her wearing the Driver as a young girl, having dead bodies at her feet from her training, and the white caped armor knight that she fought months ago. She quickly got out of the springs and put her clothes back on while dripping with water. Her vision was disoriented and she was banging into every tree on the way back to the cabin as the memories began assaulting her mind.

"How'd I do daddy?"

"I will kill all the Riders and nothing is going to stop me."

"Their screams will sound like a symphony to me. Such a beautiful sound."

"NO! THIS ISN'T ME! THIS WAS NEVER ME! I WOULD NEVER HURT INNOCENT PEOPLE! THIS IS ALL A LIE!"

Bella smashed through the front door of the cabin as the memories were still swarming her, like a predator circling its prey. Bella was on her knees as she was still screaming and hunched over.

"STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP! STOOOOPPPPPP!"

She was begging for it to all end but the memories were overwhelming her as if the fog inside her head was lifting and she was seeing and remembering everything so clearly. Then, in just mere moments, it all stopped. There was a huge amount of relief lifted off her shoulders and her head became calm.

Tear drops fell to the wooden floors as Bella was still clutching the side of her head.

"None of this was me. I wouldn't do any of this willingly…Please someone help me…Anyone…Travis…Somebody…Help me…"

Bella began breathing heavily and as she began to get a hold of herself from what she was learning she looked up to the mirror seeing her reflection of herself.

"Erica is my shadow. The evil side of me. She's a part of me. What if she was the evil I was supposed to be? World of the Past… I need to go there." Bella said as she started to become calm. She lifted her hand and summoned out a portal that began moving towards her. "To the World of the Past. I need to know who I really am." She said as the portal moved through her and she was taken to a black space. A white theater screen appeared in front of her and she noticed she was in room that looked like a school auditorium. A light beamed onto the screen and the words "The Truth of You" began showing up. Bella's eyes were glued to the screen and felt as if she inside the movie that began playing.


(15 years ago)

(Bella Robbins, Age 14)

Apollo Geist was overlooking a white training room as he was pressing some buttons and men in black suits with white skeleton designs surrounded Bella.

"Bella, kill all the Shocker Grunts in the room. You have 2 minutes. Do so without using your Rider Cards. You are free to use the Ridebooker." Apollo said into a microphone.

Bella held out her Ridebooker in sword mode. She lifted the handle up to her shoulder and placed one hand under the tip of the blade. The strange black costume wearing men ran towards her. Bella thrust her blade killing the one in front of her before spinning in a circle and doing a rising slash at the one in close to her as his chest ripped open and blood was spraying out. She raised her foot and kicked one in the groin before uppercutting it followed by plunging her sword through its chest. She was grabbed by her long hair by her opponent and yanked back as she let go of her sword.

As she was being yanked back, she raised her elbow and slammed it into the jaw of the one holding her before doing an open palm strike across the side of the face. Upon impact, she kicked another opponent that was too close and then noticed a pillar in the room. She grabbed the back of the grunt's head and slammed it hard into the pillar as a loud crack sound was made and the body dropped to the floor lifeless. Another grunt came charging at her with a knife as it did a side swipe that Bella cartwheel to the left and upon standing back up, she knife hand a grunt in the throat leaving it for struggling to breathe as she fractured it's larynx. She then grabbed her hand and used it as a shield as the one with the knife came soaring down hoping to impale her. The knife went into the grunt's head and Bella let go of the corpse as she spun around the other one and kicked its hind leg as it kneeled forward and she yanked the knife out of its hand and slammed it into the back of his neck. She shoved the grunt to the ground as the last one came running up at her and Bella ripped the knife out and without looking, threw the knife behind her as it lunged into the grunt's chest. The grunt stopped as Bella leered over her shoulder and then did a roundhouse kick and had her foot slam into the back of the knife shoving the blade deeper in. When she landed on the ground, the grunt fell and died.

Bella walked over with blood covered all over her shoulders and sides of her face to grab her sword out of the corpse of another grunt. "These guys are just too easy for me. No matter what we do they just can't get any stronger, nor do I feel like I'm getting any stronger." She said as she exited out the door and stood looking at Apollo Geist. "When is it going to be my time to go out and kill the Riders? I'm bored fighting the same thing over and over again." She said in disbelief.

"Its almost time for your first Rider. But right now, you need to learn patience. I have stuff planned out for a reason. Now go wash up, it's almost time for your workout training exercises." Apollo said to her.

"Uggghhh I hate doing those. I do those like 3 times a day and my body is always sore afterwards. What's the point in 300 crunches, 50 push-ups, five-minute planks, and a 3k mile run?" She said with a moping face.

Apollo didn't say anything as she got up with a scoff and walked out the room.

"It may not make sense now, but it will later. If you are to inherit the Will of Shocker, you'll need to be stronger and faster to kill me. Once you have become the next Great Leader, everything will be made clear to yo-UGH! ARGGGHHH! WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO COME OUT NOW!?"

Apollo Geist fell to the ground grabbing his shoulders with his opposite hands. "I won't let you do this to my daughter!"

Apollo Geist was standing up as he began slamming his head into the walls, "SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SUBMIT TO ME EMMANUEL! EMMANUEL!"

There was a mental struggle between two personalities raging inside Apollo Geist as he was slamming himself into the walls trying to get one side to calm down.

"I WON'T LET YOU WIN THIS TIME!"

Emmanuel raised his voice as he gave out a war cry and in a second the body that was rampaging all over the place became still. Blood droplets from the wounds on the face and sides of the head dripped onto the floor from under the helmet and there was an air of calmness around Apollo Geist.

Emmanuel was back in control of his mind and body.

"I don't have much time. This is my last chance to save my daughter from this cursed fate. I can't ever let her pick up that cursed belt. If I can do this, I'll let her have the life I always wanted for her, even if I can't be there to see it." He said as he stumbled out of the room. Bella was just walking back to the room as she was hearing the noises being made.

"Hey everything alrigh-You're bleeding!? Were you attacked?!" She began to worry as she left to grab bandages, but Emmanuel grabbed her wrist.

"I'm so sorry about this angel." He said as he flipped her around to face him.

"Wait…Da—" Bella received a blow to the gut that knocked her unconscious as Emmanuel picked her up and carried her to a different part of the facility where he strapped her down to a bed and began placing pieces of tape with wires connected to it around her head.

Apollo Geist began fighting back as Emmanuel was flipping switches on a module. He was struggling again at keeping Apollo at bay in his mind as he was stumbling over to a table and began hooking up wires to a circle pad and placed the Neodecadriver on it as the pad began to light up bright green. A warp portal began to form in front of the belt. A robotic pole moved around to Bella's right shoulder as she was beginning to wake up and notice she was strapped to the bed.

"WHAT'S GOING ON! DAD! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" She said as she watched Emmanuel having a full-blown mental breakdown while hitting buttons on the module.

"Honey…I swore to your mother when she was murdered…That I would always protect you…ARGHHH!...And to give you a life that you so rightfully deserved…GET OUT OF MY HEAD APOLLO GEIST! THINGS WILL NO LONGER GO YOUR WAY!"

"YES THEY WILL! YOU SHOULD'VE ACCEPTED THE LOSS AND YOUR FATE WHEN I POSESSED YOUR BODY! WHY YOU STILL HAVE ALL THIS WILL AND STRENGTH TO CAUSE ME SO MUCH PROBLEMS AFTER THE LAST GREAT LEADER KILLED YOUR WIFE I'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND! I NEED YOUR DAUGHTER AND SHE WILL DO THE BIDDING OF SHOCKER!"

"DAD! PLEASE LET ME GO! PLEASE DON'T DO WHATEVER YOUR THINKING OF DOING!" Bella screamed out terrified and tears running down her face.

The lights began flickering and a burst of energy washed across the room as Apollo Geist was getting closer to having control over Emmanuel's mind.

"My daughter isn't a tool! Bella sweetie. Please listen…I'mma wipe your memories. I'm going to add things into your brain that aren't real. And I'm…Going to send you a to a world I've already visited where a family will take care of you…They are waiting for you and have been for a while…But you may never remember me but I want you to know…That…I will…Always…Love you…."

Emmanuel raised his fist as he slammed a green button on the module and blue and green liquid zoomed in the tubes and entered into the cartridge of the needle and a small shock formed around Bella's mind. Bella began screaming in the pain and the needle quickly lodged into her shoulder as the mixed liquids began forming into her body.

In the middle of the screaming pain Bella was watching as her memories began erasing themselves and new ones began to form of a family that she never saw. Bella got one hand of hers free in the bed as she reached out to Emmanuel.

"Dad….Please….I'm scared…" She said weakly and when the process was done, the needle was removed and the straps on the bed removed themselves.

Emmanuel raised his hand towards her from the module.

"I'm so sorry Bella." He said as he hit another button with that same hand on a module and the portal moved through Bella taking her to the world that she would live in until she met Travis.

The vision and scenery changed as Bella saw the world she spent the rest of her life in as she saw herself being flung into a bedroom with pictures of just her all over the walls in a family like fashion. She made a lot of noise as she was thrown in and was sprawled out on the floor. The current Bella watched as the two parents bust through the door with a shotgun at the ready and pointed at her younger self as she was laid unconscious on the floor.

It was a Mexican American family and the wife flipped the light switch as the father set the gun down and walked over and picked up Bella. There was a note on Bella that the dad picked up and read.

"Please take good care of my daughter. Raise her as if she was your own, cause that's all she'll ever see you as."

The father held Bella tightly in his arms as a heavy atmosphere formed around the room. The scenery around everything that the current Bella saw became black and a portal passed through her as she was returned unwillingly to the cabin where she just stood still in the shock of what she had just witnessed.

Everything in the cabin was silent, the only sound you could barely hear were tear drips dropping to the floor as Bella began feeling like a huge emptiness in herself began to refill and the tears began to run down her face faster as she finally had not just all her memories back, but her sense of purpose as well.

"I was born as a kind and caring girl. Then I became a monster. Then I went back to who I was meant to be, only to be brought back to being a monster again." She said as she raised the Neodecadriver and placed it on her waist. The straps formed around her waist as she walked outside slowly and took a deep breath. "I'm going to put an end to this nightmare. Even if it kills me, I'm going to end this whole thing. I'm going to fix every single wrong I've done. This ends now." She said as she closed her eyes and summoned out a portal and walked through it and when she came out on the other side, she found herself in the giant training room of the Shocker HQ that she saw in the other world. Standing in this now decrepit empty white space was Erica who had her hands finger locked together behind her back and was facing away from Bella.

"So, you got your memories back huh? You now know who you are. You were bred to be a killer. The walking and dimension traveling Reaper of all the Riders in the universe. You are the Destroyer of Worlds and the terrorist organization known as Shocker is your rightful inheritance that you have been denied of for the past 14 years." Erica said as she pivoted in a circle facing Bella with a smile on her face.

Bella pulled open her driver and then took out her Rider card from the Ridebooker.

"I won't deny what kind of a horrible person I am. I won't run away from it. How can I even when you are standing right here in front of me, the me that I was supposed to be if it wasn't for the sacrifices my father made for me."

"Heh. Your father was a great man, but a very weak one. To think that someone out there can withstand the evil will of Shocker on multiple cases. Sadly, the many head injuries he inflicted on himself on top of the aneurysms he had thanks to the Shocker's Curse living inside him, made it to where the moment he sent you into that World, would become his very last breath he would take. His final moments of being alive were to whisk you away from the path that fate had laid out in front of you. But even his actions didn't keep you away. That fateful night when Travis appeared in the alleyway bloodied and dying, if you had just kept walking and ignored everything, you would probably have never been put back in this situation and your world will have never been destroyed. You could've gone and lived such a peaceful, harmonious, and wonderful life." She said with a passive aggressive tone.

Erica raised her purple and black dialed Ridewatch over her opposite shoulder.

"But now you will die just like the rabid dog you are."

"DECADE"

"I have promises to keep. I have sins to clean off. You aren't standing in my way."

"Henshin."

"Kamen Ride: D-D-Decade"

The two forms appeared over their bodies as Bella and Erica charged at each other in the middle of their transformation sequences with their forms being completed the moment they made contact with each other.
