Episode 11: Bearing our Fangs Together
Dark Decade was in the newly developed lab in the Sonozaki mansion, working on a new GaiaMemory. It's been a few days since he became allies with Ryubee Sonozaki and while most of the required equipment didn't come right only a few pieces did. Saeko Sonozaki said that she and her new husband will be in Tokyo-3 in a couple of days with the rest of the equipment.
Although it didn't seem much, but it was enough for Dark Decade to be working on the new Memories. Ryubee came down to see Dark Decade working.
"You know, you don't have to do this by yourself." Ryubee said.
"It's fine, I'm glad I can take some pleasure out of this." He answered with Ryubee smiling.
"That kind of attitude reminds me of our original maker, Rei Ayanami, the Chosen Child." Ryubee mused.
"She was your original Memory maker? What happened to her?"
"I have no doubt that she is part of W now." Ryubee said.
"If you knew, then why didn't you tell Ikari?"
"Because unlike him, I prefer to give her actual freedom. I always liked her in a sense." Ryubee explained. "Anyways, is it ready?"
Dark Decade got off his chair and pressed on the Memory as an example.
"CYBORG!"

(The next few days at the Double Detective Agency)
It's been a few days since Shinji and Rei met Nihlus Kryis, a fellow Kamen Rider. He was undercover at NERV, trying to get whatever piece of data he can get before sending it to the detectives.
Nihlus told them about Dark Decade but so far things have been silent n the city. Shinji didn't know whether to take that at ease or as warning that Dark Decade is planning something big. Rei was well…just being Rei.
Shinji was listening to his SDAT player until Rei approached his desk.
"What's up?" Shinji asked as he placed his earphones away.
"Shinji, can we get a pet? Not the Memory Gadgets but a real animal." Rei asked.
Shinji gave her a weird look since she probably found a relating topic in the GaiaLibrary.
"I don't know, Rei. A real pet takes a lot of responsibility." Shinji answered.
"I can be responsible." Rei answered.
"I beg to differ…"
(A year ago in Futo)
Shinji was reading the paper before he heard the sound of glass shattering.
Shinji looked at the garage. He sighed before going in. But instead of seeing Rei, he sees the RevolGarry closed up.
He then heard the sound of glass shattering again. Shinji quickly got on his STAG Phone and opened the vehicle, revealing Rei with broken shards of glass around her. Rei seemed to ignore it before drinking a glass bottle out of a nearby cooler.
Shinji went up to her.
"Rei, what's going on here?"
"Why hello there, pwetty boy…" Rei said in a happy manner.
Shinji blushed at the comment before he smelled her breath and realizing…
"You're drunk!"
"I know you are but what am I?" Drunk Rei retorted back.
"Drunk." Shinji answered. Rei must've looked up alcohol this time and got curious of its taste.
"Oh don't be a party pooper." Drunk Rei pouted. "I was just curious on why many adults drink this and I might be seeing why…" She said before she felt sick and ran up to the bathroom to puke.
(Present)
"I haven't drunk alcohol since then!" Rei defended before Fu and Yugi showed up.
"You drank alcohol!?" Both Fu and Yugi exclaimed since Rei was fourteen years old.
"I was curious. Anyways, what are you guys doing here?" Rei asked back.
"We were just exploring plus we never been here." Fu answered, which was true. They've seen much of the city but never been in the agency themselves.
"So what were you guys talking about?"
"I wanted a pet." Rei said before Yugi decided to adjust the radio.
"Why not? It seems harmless." Fu reasoned. It actually did seem pretty harmless but she did not know Rei.
"It's just that I don't think Rei can't do it. I just doubt it would last long." Shinji explained before Yugi got on the news channel.
"This just in, we have a dismantled shop near Shinjuku.' Everybody stopped and went up to the radio. "The shop's owner, Haru Machida reported that everything inside has been destroyed along with along with a few injured citizens nearby."
Shinji then grabbed his fedora and coat.
"Looks like a new case for us, Rei." Shinji said before Yugi and Fu followed. Shinji noticed. "You guys want to come?'
"I'm a Kamen Rider too! I have to help somehow." Yugi explained.
"And I'm curious to see how the Rider of this world works." Fu answered.
Shinji then shrugged. Having another Kamen Rider watch your back can be pretty handy and this Fu looks like she can handle herself. He nodded.
"Rei, I'll call you if I need a lookup or anything else." Shinji said before the three left.
Rei just nodded before she went to the garage and read up more in her library.
(In Shinjuku)
Shinji and Yugi arrived on their bikes with Fu as a passenger. The three got off and explored the district until they arrived at the scene with cops surrounding the vicinity.
Shinji approached the cops and showed his ID.
"Detective Shinji Ikari, I'm here to check out the scene." Shinji said with Yugi and Fu behind him.
"Still poking you head where it doesn't belong, I see." A detective from the cops said as he approached Shinji.
"I'm just doing my job, Hitari." Shinji said as he faced Souji.
"Well I'm doing mine too. From what we could tell of surveillance, one monster and a Kamen Rider was behind this." This surprised the three.
"Kamen Rider, that urban myth?" Shinji said while pretending to play dumb.
"Yeah, you're familiar with him?"
"Enough to know that one wouldn't do such a thing!" Yugi said.
"Either way, we'll be taking it from here so you aren't needed, kid." Souji said before leaving.
Shinji's face just cringed as he watched him leave and talk to the owner.
"Now what?" Fu asked.
"Well, I'm not done, for starters." Shinji said before getting on his bike. "C'mon, I know a guy that can help us."
Yugi and Fu got on the other bike before following Shinji.
(With Rei)
Rei was in the garage, reading whatever came to mind. But she still wanted a pet, even if it's just for experimentation.
Unknown to her, a tiny mechanical raptor was watching her from the ceiling. It scanned Rei and soon a message popped up in its head.
"TARGET FOR PROTECTION: ACCEPTABLE RANGE."
It continued watching her until Rei heard a knock at the door. She got out of the GaiaLibrary and approached it. She opened it and to her surprise, it was Asuka.
"Hey, Wondergirl ." Asuka greeted.
The tiny raptor jumped to the top of the desk without being seen and scanned Asuka.
"TARGET OF POTENTIAL HARM: 0%."
"NO THREAT DETECTED."
It then jumped to a place, where it can get a better view of Rei.
"What are you doing here, Asuka?"
Asuka seemed offended.
"What!? I can't see one of my favorite detectives here after getting out of school early?"
"No seriously, why are you here?" Rei asked, seeing through the guise that Asuka had.
"Alright! Alright!" Asuka said as she got in. "I got out early and Misato isn't home and my other friends are busy right now. So…"
"We're basically your last option. Great." Rei sarcastically remarked before going to the garage where Asuka followed her. It was clear that Asuka only visited them out of boredom, not pleasantry.
"Hey! I can be nice!" Asuka exclaimed. "I can even help you on those weird experiments." She said, trying to sound nice.
Rei looked at her surprised. Usually she did her experiments herself, even Shinji doesn't help unless it involves the case itself.
"Really?"
"Really." Asuka answered, causing Rei to smile.
"Wait here then. There was something I wanted to try but it required two people but I always keep forgetting to ask Shinji. I'll be right back." Rei went to her couch and pulled out some stuff from beneath it. She carried it back to Asuka and dropped it right in front of her.
It was a box and Rei opened it before getting some stuff out. She then looked at Asuka as she was getting the materials out.
"Quick question: How strong are your teeth?" Rei asked.
(With the others)
Shinji and the others arrive in some sort of restaurant where he sees Watcherman. Shinji approached him and placed some money on his table. Watcherman looks at him.
"I was starting to think, you may have forgotten me." Watcherman mused before looking at Yugi and Fu. "Who are these guys? Especially the babe?"
Fu just rolled her eyes before Shinji got his contact back on track.
"You know that shop that was destroyed in Shinjuku recently?" Shinji asked with slight impatience.
"Yeah, you want to know if it's a Dopant, right?" Watcherman asked.
"That and I heard a Kamen Rider is behind this as well. Is that true?"Shinji asked, anticipating that it might be this Dark Decade that the others keep mentioning.
"Funny thing, actually…
(Last night)
"Santa-chan, you really know how to have night, huh!" Watcherman said as the two had a fun night or at least, in their terms.
"Trust me, Santa-chan knows how to throw a good party!" Santa-chan said before they looked around.
"Where are we, anyways?"
"Looks like Shinjuku by the looks of it. But don't worry, Santa-chan can lead the way!" Santa-chan said with confidence before he and Watcherman wondered around.
After a few minutes of wandering around the district, they see a store window being two took cover.
Dark Decade was approaching the store while behind him was huge being that looked mechanical. It also had several armaments attached to his body and his face looked mechanical as well.
"Do it."
"As you wish…" The Cyborg Dopant said before summoning a turret from its shoulder and fired. It soon moved in and started wrecking the place while Dark Decade was just watching.
The two men cowered in fear but continued watching.
(Present)
"You saw him!?" Yugi exclaimed in surprise as did the others.
Watcherman nodded.
"That monster looked like big trouble and that Rider…" Watcherman started as he was remembering last night. "There's just something about him that just screams death."
"Must be Dark Decade." Fu whispered.
"Do you have any idea where they might've gone?" Shinji asked.
Watcherman thought about it.
"That Rider did call the monster Keno."
(Last night)
Dark Decade watched as the Cyborg Dopant got out of the building.
"Good, now let's leave before the cops come. You did good, Keno."
"Thank you, Master…"
The two soon left with the two witnesses staring at the store before leaving themselves.
(Present)
"Keno, huh?" Shinji asked.
"Yup, but that's all I know." Watcherman said.
"It's enough. Thanks, Watcherman." Shinji said before getting his phone out and calling Rei.
(At Double Detective Agency)
"I'm…actually…starting to understand…the baka little better now." Asuka got out as she had a metal rod in her mouth. Rei was at one end of the rod with a small metal ball. Rei wanted to see if teeth can stay intact while directly facing a certain vibration.
She was ready to proceed until her phone range.
"That must be Shinji." Rei concluded before pulling the rod out of Asuka's mouth. "We'll do this later."
Asuka couldn't answer as she was relaxing her jaw. Rei opened the phone and answered.
"Shinji?"
"Rei, we got a new case and I need you to do a lookup."
"Is it about the break-in at Shinjuku?" Rei asked before noticing the small mechanical raptor.
"Yeah, actually-."
As Shinji was talking, Rei continued looking at the raptor.
'That can't be….' Rei thought as her eyes widened in disbelief at the being.
"Hey Rei, are you still on!?" Shinji asked before Rei shook herself out of her thoughts. She then saw that the raptor vanished.
"Yeah, I'm fine but did you get evidence from the crime scene?" Rei asked. "That could make the lookup easier."
Rei did have a point. The crime scene could contain more keywords for Rei to use in the GaiaLibrary.
"I couldn't there were cops and the detective there was a bit of a jerk." Shinji answered.
"I'm sure, they'll let you in again. Cop detectives must've already swept the area so now we have our chance."
"Alright, I'll check it out again then I'll come back here to review the evidence." Shinji said before hanging up as did Rei.
Rei looked back at the spot where the mechanical being was.
'I must've been imagining things. After all…it's been two years since I last saw that creature.' Rei concluded before she looked around to see Asuka with an ice pack on her cheek.
"Hey Wondergirl, how about we skip that experiment, huh?" Asuka asked, eager to do something else. Rei nodded before looking through the box to get something else out but was interrupted before she heard the door being knocked.
"Wait here." Rei instructed before she went upstairs. She opened the door and saw a young female about in her twenties, long brown hair, and light skin. The young lady also appeared to have anxiety around her.
"Are you the detective?" She asked.
"I'm one of them." Rei answered and the young lady seemed to relax a little.
"Good. My name is Miwa Amane and I have a case that needs to be settled."
(With Shinji and the others)
Shinji, Yugi, and Fu were driving back to the crime scene, hoping to have better luck at finding evidence there.
"So do you and Rei always work like this?" Yugi asked.
Shinji nodded.
"I kind of expected Rei to be more outgoing on cases like these with you." Fu admitted. As Shinji's partner, Fu and Yugi kind of expected Rei to be with him at all times but instead Rei stays at home in the GaiaLibrary waiting for Shinji.
"Our early days started out being together but…Gendo really cares about finding Rei and even assigned multiple agents to find her." Shinji explained.
(Over a year ago)
Shinji and Rei just wrapped up another case along with destroying another GaiaMemory. Shinji and Rei were making their way back to the HardBoiler until they noticed that they were being followed.
"Shinji…" Rei called.
"I know." Shinji noticed. The men in suits approached them and stared at Rei.
"So this is where you've been, huh?" The leader of the group said before looking at Shinji. "Listen here, boy. Just give us the girl and no harm can come to you."
Shinji stared at him.
"It'll be a cold day in hell before I give my aibou away." Shinji answered. "Besides, she's more happy here than with NERV."
"So you know, huh?" The leader said before getting his gun out and pointing it at Shinji. Shinji had a calm face on. "Don't take it personal, kid. But I'm just doing my job."
Shinji smiled.
"It already is." Shinji said before taking and punching him in the face with his other. He dismantled the gun while the others pointed theirs at the two. "Rei!"
Rei nodded and got a Memory out.
"STAG!"
She placed it in her phone before it transformed into a mechanical stag beetle. It flew and took out the guns. The men decided to charge at them as a Plan B.
Rei and Shinji attacked as well. Shinji ducked before kneeing one guy in the stomach and blocking a hit from another guy before punching him repetitively in the gut. He then punched him in the face before the man rolled away.
Rei saw two men heading for her but she dodged them before doing a leg sweep. A part of her was grateful that Gendo had her to learn basic military hand-to-hand combat training as a means of defense. She grabbed a man's arm before flipping him on the floor.
She then dodged a punch before doing a leg sweep. When the man was on the floor, she punched him right on the face to knock him out.
Shinji approached the leader who was waking up. He grabbed him by the collar while Rei joined him with her phone in her hand.
"Listen, you just pointed a gun at a minor. Not really a smart move, huh?" Shinji said before knocking the guy out with his fist.
Rei just hung up the phone.
"The police will be here along with footage of us being attacked." Rei pointed out as her phone was playing a recording of Shinji being held at gunpoint. "But this is starting to be dangerous though, I can't stay out for much longer anymore."
Shinji sighed, knowing she was right. As long Rei was out, she'll be an easy target for any NERV or SEELE agent but she was his partner. Shinji then had an idea popped in his head.
"Then help me from the shadows then. You and your Library can help while I work in the field."
"You sure?"
"We don't have a choice apparently." Shinji said, looking at the knocked out agents.
(Present)
"Ever since then, Rei was doubly careful of when to come outside or not. And since we're in the city of NERV headquarters, caution was doubled." Shinji explained before the two bikes stopped at the building.
"Still though, has she ever done much action before other than the lookup?" Fu asked.
"Only in our early days and the-." Shinji stopped himself there. They didn't need to know about the "one time" nor did he have a reason to remember it. He then decided to change the subject. "Okay looks like there's less cops and that annoying idiot of a detective is gone." Shinji said before he took off his helmet along with the others.
The building did have fewer cops now and the three decided to head in but we're stopped by a cop.
"Excuse me, but can I help you?" The cop asked before Shinji showed his ID. "I thought I recognized you. You're that young detective that Detective Hitari kicked out."
"He's not here, is he?"
"No, he left a while ago."
"In that case, can I investigate the scene?"
"I don't know, my superiors told me not to let anyone in." The officer replied.
"But I have to go in and check. Check my ID if you have to." Shinji said. The officer thought about it.
"Look detective, I want to help you. I really do but command is going crazy over that evil Kamen Rider. If you want, I can let you in for ten minutes. That's all you can get." The officer answered. Shinji sighed, it was better than being rejected again.
"I guess I should thank you." Shinji replied.
"I guess you should start working. Your ten minutes have started." The officer reminded before Shinji went in. Yugi and Fu were about to follow until the officer stopped him. "I said that the detective can come through. No one else."
Shinji stopped and looked back but Yugi waved him off.
"Don't worry, we'll be fine. Just get what you need." Yugi said, earning a nod from Shinji before he went in.
Shinji looked around and saw that the building was a mess. He was looking around the rubble and found a small black rose.
He looked around and realized that this rubble used to be an attitude shop, there was no flowers here. He placed it in his pocket before looking further in the back. Since Souji was here, there was a chance that some of the evidence is gone.
Regardless, he went through the drawers and found nothing but junk. But his searching through rubble paid off when he found a card. It looked like this belonged to Dark Decade after all it was his card.
Shinji looked at it in confusion. Why would Dark Decade leave this especially if it was one of his transformation cards? He looked at the picture of the card and it felt…wrong. He placed it in his pocket anyways. He took out the Bat Shot and started taking pictures of the place.
He looked at his watch and saw that his ten minutes were nearly up. He soon started to leave the premises until…
BOOM!
He heard an explosion and quickly went outside and saw the Cyborg Dopant tearing the place up with Kuuga trying to fight back and Fu getting any nearby civilian to a safe place.
"Rei!" Shinji called before getting the DoubleDriver out and placing it on.
(At Double Detective Agency)
Rei, Asuka, and Nihlus were waiting for the others to get back. Asuka was talking with Amane while Nihlus and Rei were in the garage.
Nihlus was looking around while Rei was reading her book until she felt her Driver on. At that moment, she got out her Memory. She pressed on it.
"CYCLONE!"
Nihlus heard that and looked at her.
"Henshin!"
She placed her Memory in the right slot of her Driver before it vanished. She soon passed out only for Nihlus to catch her.
(With the others)
"JOKER!"
"Henshin!"
After a few moments, the Cyclone Memory appeared in his right slot. He pushed it in before inserting and pressing his Joker Memory in the remaining slot. Shinji then pushed the two slots aside.
"CYCLONE-JOKER!"
Shinji transformed into W and charged. The Cyborg Dopant notices him before firing a machine gun from his wrist. W stopped and immediately took over with Kuuga right next to him behind a car.
"Damn it, why would he be here?"
"He's probably after this." W answered as he took out Dark Decade's card. "Found it in the rubble." W quickly explained before putting it away.
Kuuga looked to see if the monster was still firing only for a bullet to ricochet off his helmet. He immediately went back into cover.
"Any ides, you two?"
That was when W's eye blinked.
"This Dopant seems to rely on long range weapons. For now, we could fight fire with fire and try to get close enough for the kill." Rei proposed.
"Good with me!" Kuuga answered before noticing an officer's gun next to him. He picked it up.
"Chou Henshin!"
Kuuga transformed into his Pegasus Form with the gun turning into his bowgun. W got out two new Memories and pressed on them.
"LUNA!"
"TRIGGER!"
He replaced his default Memories with the new ones as he pushed the slots aside again.
"LUNA-TRIGGER!"
W changed forms and got his Trigger Magnum.
"Here's an idea, we'll split up and try to move up. Use anything as cover but we'll switch to our melee forms when we get close enough." W advised.
"Got it!" Kuuga said before moving to the left side and W moving to the right.
"Go!" W announced before he and Kuuga moved out and started firing at the Cyborg Dopant. The Cyborg Dopant started firing from its other wrist while the Riders were using everything they could see as cover.
Soon Kuuga was close enough and did his pose as he was running.
"Chou Henshin!"
He went into his Dragon Form and his gun turned to a staff. The Cybrog Dopant was dodging and was too focused on Kuuga to notice W changing forms as well.
"LUNA-METAL!"
W changed again and got his staff before it extended and moved like a whip. It struck against the Dopant's back as Kuuga jabbed him in the gut and knocked him in the head before the Dopant rolled over.
The Dopant got up as the Riders joined each other.
"Must…eliminate Riders." The Cyborg Dopant said before it formed a sword from its wrist. It charged and the two Riders blocked it only for the Dopant to get out its other blade and slashed Kuuga before kicking W away.
"Damn it…" W muttered as he got up only to see Kuuga being slashed mercilessly by the Cyborg Dopant. W tried to whip the Dopant again only for the Dopant to grab it and used it to throw W into a building.
W was little dizzy in getting up so his female side had to help as well. W made it outside and saw Kuuga being shot multiple times by the Cyborg Dopant. W launched his whip again and it was wrapped around the Cyborg Dopant.
Kuuga tried to use the opening only for him to be shot in the back. Kuuga soon reverted back to Yugi and lost consciousness before falling down, revealing Dark Decade. W looked at Dark Decade.
"You!" W recognized.
Dark Decade walked in front of the Dopant as it picked up Yugi.
"If you want to see your friend alive then I suggest giving me back my card." Dark Decade said.
W just stared at him before deciding to use his whip again. Dark Decade summoned a Gray Mirror in front of him and the Cyborg Dopant. The whip was deflected by the portal.
"I see. In that case, I'll give you twenty four hours to decide. Meet us in the parking building near Shibuya. I expect my card there." He then faced the Cyborg Dopant and nodded before the two went through, taking Yugi with them.
"Damn it!" W cursed before reverting back to Shinji and Fu catching up with him.
(Later at Double Detective Agency)
Shinji and Fu opened the door to see Nihlus, Asuka, and Amane.
"Where's Rei?" Fu asked.
"Garage." Nihlus answered before he and Fu went downstairs. Shinji then looked at Amane.
"So you're our new client, huh?" Shinji asked before heading downstairs to talk with Rei about the lookup. "I like to help you right now but we're busy at the moment."
"But-!" Amane started.
"Asuka, keep her company." Shinji said, surprising Asuka.
"Hey, why do I have to-!?" Before Asuka can finish, Shinji already closed the door on her, making her grit her teeth.
Shinji walked downstairs and approached Rei.
"Rei, are you ready?"
Rei nodded before closing her eyes and connecting herself to the GaiaLibrary. She looked at the wide variety of words.
"Keyword?"
"Keyword: Dopant." Shinji answered.
Rei placed that in before a majority of the bookshelves were gone but there were enough to last a long time.
"Keyword: Dark Decade." Shinji said as he looked at the card. Nihlus stared at it before shaking his head.
There were soon only a few bookshelves left now.
"Keyword: Black Rose." Shinji answered as he took out the black rose in his pocket. Soon to Rei, there were only two books left. She looked at them. One was called the Petal while the other was the Vine. At least the result was only two but just to be safe, she started reading them.
Soon later, Rei opened her eyes and faced her partner.
"Well anything?" Shinji asked.
Instead of an answer, Rei immediately walked upstairs and faced Amane.
"You have some explaining to do." Rei said as Amane had an uncertain expression on her face.
"Rei, what's going on-Ow!" Shinji let out before Asuka hits him in the head with the slipper.
"Shinji, our new client is the partner of Keno Asaki, the Cyborg Dopant." Rei said.
(In the parking building)
Yugi was tied up and tried to get free but he soon saw Dark Decade.
"Well, that was easier than I thought." Dark Decade remarked as knelt down in front of Yugi.
"You won't get away with this!" Yugi barked with extreme anger.
"Maybe I will, maybe I won't. That's for fate to decide." Dark Decade started.
"If you believe in fate, then you know what yours is!" Yugi said. He was right in a way, anyone who lives just as Dark Decade does won't come out easily if they do at all.
"I don't follow my path for any selfish reason. I follow it for necessity."
"What?"
Dark Decade then stood up.
"It makes no difference. Either way I'll get what I want along with my card." Dark Decade said and soon a young burly man approached him.
He whispered something in his ear before Dark Decade nodded as a response.
"Good, proceed with the plan. Now then, let's see if fate will come into my favor." Dark Decade said.
(At Double Detective Agency)
"Look, it wasn't bad as it seemed. We were just two idiots that got over our heads." Amane started.
"Then start explaining."
Amane sighed.
"I and Keno were part of the Black Roses group, a small time group of thieves. We only stole money out of necessity. But we couldn't keep doing this all our lives."
"So did a man in a black suit offer you two a way out?" Shinji asked.
"Not a suit but a coat and he had a hood on so I couldn't see his face." Amane described.
"Dark Decade…" Nihlus silently muttered.
"He offered us this weird USB and gave it to Keno, free of charge. He used it to trans form into a…monster." Amane said as she remembered Keno's first transformation. "At first, he started stealing huge chain stores and started making money like I haven't seen."
"So when did you change your mind about this?"
"When Keno started losing control of himself and he started spending time with that dealer that started it all to begin with. He started becoming so cruel and destructive! It wasn't like him! I couldn't take it anymore so I came to you guys for help."
"Why us, though?" Shinji asked.
"Because, I overhead your names when I eavesdropped on Keno and that dealer along with where I can find you guys." Amane explained.
"Okay, so what now? I doubt you two still want to do this job." Asuka asked. It was true, their client was a criminal, someone who was against the detectives' work. Accepting a job from one seemed like a long shot.
"No, we will." Shinji answered.
"Eh?" Everyone, except Rei and Nihlus, said.
"But as payment, when we catch him…you two turn yourselves in."
"You…" Amane started.
"All clients have their reasons." Shinji started. "If we didn't consider that, we wouldn't be good detectives."
Amane smiled.
"Wow for a half-boiled idiot, you are full of conviction." Asuka said, making Shinji give her an angry look. He then looked at Amane.
"We'll take care of everything. Don't worry." Shinji smiled before Amane left. "Now then, we already know where we're supposed to meet them. All we have to do is surprise them." Shinji proposed before Rei started noticing something.
"You're starting to act a little stressed, Shinji." Rei observed.
"Of course I am!" Shinji answered. "Those bastards took a fellow Kamen Rider and one of them even considers himself one!"
"But it's just a nam-!" Asuka said before Shinji stopped her.
"The words 'Kamen Rider' is more than just a name! It's what the people of this world naturally gave us. I can't abandon anyone else who is a fellow Rider and I can never forgive anyone who rampages using that name…like Dark Decade!" Shinji explained.
"He's right." Nihlus said. "Being a Kamen Rider is more than just a title but a role one must take in order to protect humanity." He explained before getting up.
"Where are you going?" Asuka asked.
"To pick up Amane, she hasn't gone far. We're going to settle this now." Shinji explained but Asuka went to him.
"I'm coming too!"
"You…"
"Like I said, following you is way more exciting than being here." Asuka said.
"What about us? Should me and Nihlus come too?" Fu asked.
Shinji shook his head.
"Five is a big number. Three people will manage to attract less attention." Shinji said. They have the element of surprise here, they don't want to lose it now while they can get the jump.
"Wait, Shinji!" Rei called as Shinji stopped from exiting the building. "Think about it though, Dark Decade is a Rider that looks experienced. So why would he drop his card? We should investigate more and come up with a better plan." She advised. It was true, why would Dark Decade, a powerful warrior leave a weapon of his on the ground? It didn't make sense.
"But there's no time to waste!" Shinji answered as he walked up to Rei. "Two people are a single Kamen Rider in this world. You and me!"
Rei's eyes widened.
"What'll we do if we don't restore our reputation?" Shinji asked. W was Shinji and Rei, meaning that Rei's pride as a Rider was also on the line with Dark Decade loose and a feeling of kinship since Kuuga was captured.
Rei just stared at him and couldn't come up with an answer.
"We'll just improvise along the way." Shinji answered before leaving along with Asuka.
Rei just stared at the door.
"Rei, are you okay?" Fu asked.
"He's so half-boiled…" Rei said as she shook her head a little.
(Later at the parking building)
The three arrived in the building and looked around before they heard a motorcycle coming their way. They see a man with a helmet driving his bike. He stopped in front of them and took off his helmet.
"Amane?"
"Keno!" Amane recognized as she walked up to him. "Please just give up the Memory! These people here are just trying to help you!"
"I don't need any help!" Keno said before pushing Amane away. He got out the Memory.
"So he is the culprit." Asuka confirmed as she went to Amane.
"Don't play stupid, Keno! Just give up the Memory!" Shinji advised.
Keno stared at Shinji.
"But if I did, how else will I serve Master?" Keno said.
"Stop it, Keno!" Amane begged but her voice was falling on deaf ears as Keno pressed on his Memory.
"CYBORG!"
Keno showed his palm, revealing the Living Connector. He plugged it in before transforming into the Cyborg Dopant.
"Rei!" Shinji called as he placed on his Driver and got his Memory out.
(At the garage)
Rei took out her Memory as her Driver appeared.
"CYCLONE!"
Fu instantly appeared behind her.
"Henshin!"
Rei placed her Memory in her slot and passed out as it disappeared. Fu caught her body and gently laid her on the floor.
(With the others)
"JOKER!"
"Henshin!"
The Cyclone Memory appeared in the Driver after a few seconds and Shinji pushed it in before inserting his Memory. He pushed the slots aside.
"CYCLONE-JOKER!"
Shinji transformed into W leaving a shock Amane.
"I was wondering if I would get a round two. Now, let's begin!" The Cyborg Dopant declared as it charged.
Asuka got Amane to a safe spot as W was fighting the Cyborg Dopant.
W dodged a punch before kicking the Dopant. W did a sweep kick but the Cyborg Dopant evaded it before punching W's gut twice. The pattern soon restarted with each other exchanging blows.
"Not bad." The Cyborg Dopant complimented as the fight continued. The Cyborg Dopant soon got its sword out and slashed W repetitively.
W flew and rolled on the floor before getting up.
"Bastard…" W muttered.
The Cyborg Dopant got its other sword out.
"Let's mix it up a bit." It said before continuing slashing W.
W flew again and rolled on the floor. He quickly got up and replaced his Memories.
"HEAT-METAL!"
W blocked the next attack before counterstriking with his staff. He jabbed the Dopant in the gut before slashing him a few times.
The Dopant blocked the next hit and transformed his arm into a machine gun. It fired and sparks were flying off W as the Rider stumbled back. The Dopant chuckled as it continued shooting the Rider.
W flew back and rolled again. He got up in a defensive position.
"This isn't good! I can't get a good hit on him!" W remarked before his right eye blinked.
"As a cyborg, the Dopant can arm both arms as well as shoulders! Quite powerful." Rei observed. The Dopant approached W with a missile turret n it shoulder and fired.
Before the missiles could make the way to W, the RevolGarry appeared and blocked it for W. W then switched Memories again.
"HEAT-TRIGGER!"
W jumped over the vehicle and fired at the Dopant. Soon the Dopant stumbled back.
"I got you now!" W said as he replaced Memories.
"JOKER!"
He switched the Memories.
"HEAT-JOKER!" W changed as he charged. He jumped up and punched him with his fiery fists.
"Now, where's Kuuga and Dark Decade!?" W demanded to know as he sent one last punch to the Dopant, making him fly and roll around on the floor. The Dopant just laughed as it got up.
"This is starting to be fun!" The Dopant remarked. "You really are strong but…not strong as the Master is."
Soon they heard a vibration.
"Excuse me." The Dopant said before answering a call on his walkie-talkie.
"Huh?" W said confused.
"Keno, stop playing around now. It's time to get serious." Dark Decade said over the walkie-talkie.
"Roger." The Cyborg Dopant said before hanging up. "Looks like you get to see your friend soon enough. Now…the real fight begins." He then snapped his fingers.
Soon Masquerade Dopants started appearing everywhere and two of them took Asuka and Amane.
"Let me go! Who the hell are these guys!?" Asuka questioned.
"Asuka!" W exclaimed before Yugi appeared among the group. He was injured, gagged, and tied up. W's eye blinked.
"It can't be…a trap set up by the organization!" Rei exclaimed. Shinji and Rei thought they covered up the trail of the organization that was using Rei for new GaiaMemories. But it appears that they followed them after all.
"That's right, you two." The Cyborg Dopant remarked. "The Master said that you two would follow with his hint, as expected. You're really are good at sniffing things out as they say."
"He left his card there on purpose!?" Rei questioned.
The Cyborg Dopant just laughed and pointed the gun at his three hostages.
"You piece of trash!" W called.
"Stop it! Keno! Please! Stop!" Amane begged.
"I bet you can guess what this trash wants next?" The Cyborg Dopant started. "Undo your henshin. Then get the card out and lay it on the floor." He instructed.
W stared at them before slowly putting his Driver in its original position.
'Rei, we'll pretend to undo the henshin, but put in Luna.' Shinji proposed. 'We can reverse this using LunaJoker.'
'Got it.' Rei responded.
W removed the Heat Memory but…
"That won't work!" The Cybrog Dopant said as it fired something.
"LUNA!"
Before W could put it in, the projectile that was launched became attached the right slot, preventing anything to go in or out. The Luna Memory was soon blocked from entering.
"What!?" W exclaimed before the Cyborg Dopant fired at W. Soon, W's armor shattered and Shinji was blown away as Dark Decade's card fell out of his coat.
"Shinji!" Asuka called as Shinji couldn't get up.
"I can't let my guard down for a second. So…our target is in the vehicle, isn't she?" The Cyborg Dopant asked as he walked up and picked up the card.
Shinji's eyes widened.
"You guys were after Wondergirl from the beginning!?" Asuka questioned.
"Exactly! Correct!"
Shinji turned and saw Rei, Nihlus, and Fu coming out of the RevolGarry.
"Run, Rei! Everyone!"
The Dopants looked.
"There they are! Get them!" The Cyborg Dopant ordered. Nihlus quickly placed his belt on and got his card out.
"Henshin!"
He placed the card in his Driver and closed it.
"KAMEN RIDE: DECADE!"
Nihlus transformed into Decade and tried to shoot the Masquerade Dopants away as Fu was helping Rei escape. Shinji looked at Decade.
"Nihlus, go!"
"But-!"
"Protect Rei! That's all that matters!" Shinji exclaimed.
Decade looked at him before nodding and started running in their direction.
(Outside)
The two made it outside with Decade behind them. They were at some public park and stopped at the fountain. Rei just stood shocked over what happened.
"Rei, are you okay!?" Fu asked as she noticed Rei looked extremely troubled.
"What am I going to do now!? What am I going to do now!?" Rei thought out loud. Her partner, friend, client, and comrade were all captured along with Rei's only means of fighting.
"Rei, you could-." Decade started.
"You could come with me." A new voice said.
The three looked and saw Dark Decade.
"You…you were the one who set us up, weren't you!?" Fu questioned.
"Of course." Dark Decade answered. "I set all this up…just so Rei can be placed in Museum's hands again."
Rei stared at him as Fu and Decade got in front of her. Despite, Dark Decade not having his card he can still prove to be a fearsome foe.
"Why?" Fu asked.
"She is the Child of Fate. A human who has obtained a transcript of Earth. Now, you're coming with me." Dark Decade said with Rei backing away.
"I'm not going anywhere!" Rei answered.
"Stubborn girl, aren't you? But that's okay." Dark Decade said as he placed on his Driver. "I'll take you back through force."
He got a card out.
"Henshin!"
He placed the card in the Driver and closed it.
"KAMEN RIDE: PSYGA!"
Blue neon lines appeared throughout his body and transformed into Psyga. He flew with Decade trying to shoot him down. He looked back at Fu and Rei.
"Fu, get Rei out of here! I'll hold him off!" Decade said.
"Okay!" Fu responded before she and Rei ran.
DD-Psyga looked at them before flying towards them. Decade was on his trail.
Psyga fired his weapons at the two.
"Get down!" Fu said as she and Rei got down. Decade caught up and shot DD-Psyga in the back. He looked at him.
"I said I wouldn't fight you but that doesn't mean I can't defend myself!" DD-Psyga said before shooting Decade a few times.
Fu and Rei were crawling away while the two Decades were at each other until Rei heard a familiar mechanical roar.
Rei looked and saw the mechanical raptor from before. Her eyes widened as it was approaching her. She wasn't hallucinating.
"Fang!" She recognized as she remembered what happened last time they met which was…two years ago at the Begins' Night Case.
(Two years ago)
The building blew up and W was rampaging while fire surrounded the Rider. W just slashed and slashed mercilessly while roaring like a beast.
Soon more the building exploded with W moving out with an unconscious body.
(Present)
Fu saw Rei's fearful face before looking at Fang. Rei grabbed a stick and aimed it at Fang.
"Go away!" Rei warned before throwing it at Fang, who jumped back in response. "Stay away from me! I don't need your power!"
Decade took cover behind a tree before placing a card in his Driver and closing it.
"ATTACK RIDE: BLAST!"
Decade aimed and fired but DD-Psyga dodged before he noticed the two girls trying to escape. He fired and the two dodged but Rei took her STAG Phone out and called the RevolGarry.
(With the others)
The Dopants have just finished tying up Shinji and got him to move. As they started to escort them, the RevolGarry's lights turned on and the vehicle started moving away, running over a few Dopants in the process.
"She's running away!? You've got be kidding me!" Asuka exclaimed. "What a coward!"
"Idiot!" Shinji called. "What she did was fine. It's fine, Rei. Just run."
The Cyborg Dopant walked up to Shinji before punching him in the gut, knocking him out.
"It's not over yet. This is just a fun beginning."
(With Decade, Fu, and Rei)
The girls got up and started to make a run for it but DD-Psyga noticed them.
"I won't let you!" He said before shooting at them.
Before the shots could hit, the RevolGarry appeared and blocked the shots. Rei and Fu quickly got in before Decade shot DD-Psyga's jetpack, making him fly out of control. Decade used the opportunity to get in before the RevolGarry moved out.
DD-Psyga detached from the jetpack before reverting back to his civilian form.
"Go ahead and run, we have hostages. It's only a matter of time before you come back." Dark Decade said before walked away from the scene.
(With the others)
"Keno, open your eyes! We're thieves. We don't do horrible stuff like this!" Amane begged as she tried to get free.
The Cyborg Dopant walked up to Amane before reverting back to Keno. He smiled.
"You know, you should try serving the Master, too. You'll understand it once you serve him." He laughed.
"Keno!"
Keno then grabbed her by the collar.
"Just leave me be. I serve the Master now." Kenor said before pushing her to the ground. Soon he, the Dopants, and the hostages left her.
(In the RevolGarry)
Fu was taking care and trying to calm Rei while Nihlus was looking to make sure that they weren't followed.
"Hey Rei, are you okay?" Fu asked, considering that Rei looked like she was scared to death.
"I can't afford to be caught." Rei explained. "But, I'm completely against using…that beast." Rei said as she remembered her time with Fang before passing out.
"Rei! Rei!" Fu called as she shook her.
After a couple of hours, Rei woke up with Nihlus and Fu looking at her with worried looks. Rei got up and looked to see that they were back in the garage. She soon felt her STAG phone ringing.
She got it out and, though nervously, quickly picked it up and answered it.
"H-Hello?" Rei asked.
"Wondergirl!"
Rei's eyes widened at the voice.
"Asuka! Are you and the others okay!?" Rei asked as Nihlus and Fu rushed to hear the conversation.
"Well…we're still alive. That counts as something." Asuka answered before they heard sounds from the background as if the phone is being switched.
"Now then, be a good girl and come back here."
Rei recognized the voice.
"Keno Asaki…" She noticed.
"The location is the center is the abandoned factory in the refinery district. If I were you, I would hurry…before the Master decides that they're useless." Keno warned.
"Stay away!" Shinji shouted from the background. "You better not come, Rei!"
"Shinji!"
"Just forget me! This my punishment for ignoring my partner's warning." This was his fault to begin with. He was reckless and didn't take any precautions. This was his punishment, not Rei's. "If you come…then it's the end of our partnership!" Shinji warned before…
"AAAGGHHH!" Shinji screamed, meaning that Keno was beating him.
"Shinji!" A worried Rei called.
"You won't' be able to break off a partnership if you're dead." Keno warned. "Anyways, see you later." He then hung up.
"So what are we going to do?" Fu asked but instead Rei went upstairs at the table. Her hand dove through her hair and tried thinking.
"Well we can't just abandon them." Nihlus pointed out as they followed her upstairs.
Rei looked at them before hearing Fang's bark. She looked and saw Fang at a nearby table.
"I said go away!" Rei gawked as she grabbed a bottle and threw it at Fang. Fang jumped away and landed at the door.
Rei grabbed a pillow and threw it. Fang jumped again and the door opened.
"Hey, kid!" Souji opened the door only to be hit by pillow. "Ow!"
Then Watcherman came in.
"Hello!" Watcherman greeted before looking around. "Huh? Is Shinji around?" He asked.
"Merry Christmas!" Santa-chan greeted as he got in. "Huh? Is Shinji around?"
Then Souji got up and burst in.
"Alright kid, I-!" He then looked around. "Huh? Is that kid not around?"
"No, just us." Nihlus answered for Rei, seeing that she really wasn't in the mood for talking.
"Well, here have some presents." Santa-chan said as he gave the three presents.
"Inspector, did you come to pay here too?" Watcherman asked.
"Like I'd play! I'm just here to ask questions." Souji explained. "My department has just received info that one of the wanted phantom thieves of the Black Rose group was seen around here." He explained.
The three were obviously surprised by the information.
'Amane was released?' Rei thought.
(At the factory)
The three were trying to get out of their ropes but they tied them up good.
"These guys were really thorough in tying us up here." Shinji remarked.
"If I can just get my arms free, I can transform!" Yugi stated.
"Hey you guys, you think we can get out of here?" Asuka asked.
"Well Nihlus can get us out but I don't know if he can take this many guys." Yugi answered.
"If only we had Fang, then maybe Nihlus wouldn't have to fight alone…" Shinji muttered.
"Fang?" Both Yugi and Asuka questioned.
"Fang…is our seventh Memory for W." Shinji explained.
"Really!? How come you haven't used it then!?" Asuka asked.
"And where is it?" Yugi asked as well.
"How should I know?" Shinji replied. "Unlike our six Memories, Fang…is alive. And he appears to only show himself whenever he wants to."
"Alive?" Both Asuka and Yugi questioned as they tried to picture Fang Memory which was a cartoonish looking Memory with arms and legs.
"But even it does show up, I doubt Rei would accept it."
"Why not?"
"Two years ago, after I met Rei, we used Fang once but…." Shinji started as he remembered what happened afterwards.
(Two years ago)
Rei was sitting against the wall with her legs against her chest. She was sweating and her face was an expression filled with fear.
Shinji looked at her and tried to approach her, when he did, she started muttering something.
"I can't…" She started.
"Huh?"
"I can't…use that again." Rei said as Shinji looked at her. Shinji never saw a more fearful face. "Please…don't make me use it again." She whimpered. "If we use Fang again…no, we can't. We just can't."
(Present)
"Let's just say that Fang had some side effects that weren't pretty." Shinji answered. "But all we can do is hope that the others will come for us."
(Later outside at night)
Amane was running from the cops.
"Stop right there!"
"You're under arrest!"
Amane was soon pulled to an alley. She sees Rei and Nihlus who gestured her to be quiet. The police soon stopped and saw Fu.
"Excuse me, Miss. But have you seen a woman pass by here recently?" An officer asked.
Fu nodded.
"She went that way." Fu answered as she pointed at a random direction that was farther from where Amane was actually.
"Thank you." The cop said before he and his fellow officers ran off that way. Soon the coast was clear after a few moments.
The four got to a safe location and Amane recognized these people.
"You were the guys from the agency a few hours ago." She remembered.
"It would be an inconvenience for us if you got arrested now." Rei explained. "Please, anything will do. We have to learn his weak spot."
"That's no longer that Keno that I knew." Amane answered.
'So there's nothing to learn here.' Rei remarked.
"But I still want to see him again." Amane said.
"Stop being so reckless." Rei advised. "He's already influenced by the GaiaMemory and Dark Decade."
"I know that, but I can't just do nothing." Amane said.
Rei didn't get it. Amane is willing to put herself through so much trouble just to save Keno, who was lost to the Memory and Dark Decade for too long.
"Please stop this recklessness." Rei advised.
"But she can't." Nihlus answered back. "She's only doing this because Keno is her partner. She just can't leave him behind because the two share a connection, right?"
Amane nodded.
"That's right, the two of us are one." Amane answered.
Rei's eyes widened as Shinji's voice ran through her head.
"Two people are a single Kamen Rider in this world. You and me!"
Rei thought about it. Nihlus was right and looking back at it now; this was similar to her and Shinji. The two detectives shared a bond in which you can't have one without the other. Rei just can't abandon Shinji and she's now willing to do whatever it takes to rescue him…even if it meant using Fang.
"Thank you, I think I know what to do now." Rei said with a determined face on. "C'mon, guys!" She said before she, Nihlus, and Fu ran off.
"So you have a plan?" Fu asked.
"More like decision." Rei answered before hearing Fang's bark. She stopped and looked to see Fang on a tree branch. Instead of running away or screaming at it, Rei just stared at it before making a decision.
(In the warehouse at morning)
Shinji, who was still tied up, was hanging by a rope which was being pulled by Asuka. Shinji was over a pit of spikes while Yugi was still tied up, trying to get his arms free.
"Keno, you bastard!" Shinji cursed.
Asuka was trying her best to lift Shinji but she couldn't keep up for long. The Syborg Dopant was just laughing at the situation.
"He's pretty heavy, isn't he?" The Cyborg Dopant mocked. "But I suppose you're reaching your limit now, haven't you?"
Nearby, Dark Decade was watching.
"Well he knows how to make things suspenseful." He said.
Asuka was still trying so hard that her hands were starting to bleed from the rope. Shinji then sighed.
"Asuka! That's enough."
"Huh!?"
Shinji sweated as he gulped but kept a calm face on.
"Could you…take care of Rei for me? And tell her that I'm sorry…for everything." Shinji said. His only regret was that he seemingly ended off on a bad note with Rei.
"You could tell her that yourself!" Asuka said before she was forced to let go.
Shinji's hat fell first into the pit and the other hostages and shocked faces while the Cyborg Dopant looked excited. Shinji closed his eyes as he prepared for the worst but when he opened them…he was still hanging. He looks up to see Fang holding the rope by the mouth.
"Fang!" Shinji recognized before realizing. "Wait, but that means…"
He soon heard motorcycle noises and they looked to see the HardBoiler and Machine Decader coming in with Rei and Nihlus as the drivers with Fu as a passenger. They stopped their bikes, took off their helmets, and got off.
"She's here…"
Dark Decade just had an indifferent face behind his hood.
Rei stared the scene with a serious face while Nihlus placed his Driver on, opened it, and took out his card but didn't transform yet.
"Rei!" Shinji called. If Fang was here, then is Rei being serious about using it then.
"Wondergirl…"
"Nihlus! Fu!" Yugi called.
"Go ahead and break off our partnership, Shinji." Rei started as the Masquerade Dopants got in front of them. "But I won't allow you, though." She then looked at the Cyrbog Dopant. "I'm going to make sure you pay for this, Keno."
"Huh?"
"I won't be responsible for what happens here." She then looked at Nihlus. "If things go too far, you know what to do."
Nihlus looked at her before nodding.
"Rei, y-you're going to use Fang!?" Shinji asked but after looking at Rei's serious face, the answer was obvious. "Hey! You have some kind of plan, right!?"
"I'll just improvise." Rei answered.
Shinji remembered giving her the same answer yesterday.
"Today, I'm going to be like you and Miwa Amane. I'm going to try acting without reason…so I can try to save you." Rei answered.
"Rei…" Shinji said surprised. Rei was always the smart and cautious one but now she's the reckless and determined fighter today.
"Shinji, please ride with me to Hell itself." Rei said before looking at Fang. "Come to me, Fang!" She ordered.
Fang swung Shinji away from the pit, making him land on Asuka. Fang then moved a little through the rafters before jumping to Rei's hand. She then folded the robotic dinosaur and now it looked like a dinosaur's head. She then flipped the tail, revealing the Memory. The Fang Memory was white with a sharp letter 'F' on it. Rei tapped the button.
"FANG!"
"So she's using that, huh?" Dark Decade inquired.
Rei's Driver soon appeared on her waist and Shinji looked at his Driver. To everyone's surprise, except the detectives and seemingly Nihlus, it was Shinji's Joker Memory that teleported.
It soon reappeared in the left slot of Rei's Driver and she pushed it in.
"REI, DON'T DO IT!"
Rei, however, still had a determined face on.
"Henshin!"
She then plugged the Fang Memory and separated the slots. Rei then pushed the dinosaur head so it rested atop the Driver as a horn folded out.
"FANG-JOKER!"
Rei roared as a tornado and lightning surrounded her body. The burst of power blew everyone away as particles melded with her body.
Then Shinji passed out, to everyone's surprise.
Soon in Rei's place was a new W. The suit was now half white with a black trim on the right and black with purple trim on the left. The suit now had spikes along the sides and the eyes had jagged sides. W's antennae looked more like simplified lightning bolts and the shoulders had spikes as well. Another new feature was that W's body looked way more feminine than male. This was Kamen Rider W FangJoker.
"No way…" Yugi started.
"This time it was Wondergirl's body that became W." Asuka finished.
Fu looked shocked while Nihlus had a cautious face on.
"Nihlus, what's wrong?"
"You'll see." Nihlus answered.
"What!?" The Cyborg Dopant gawked in surprise.
W continued roaring before she charged. The Masquerade Dopants charged in response with W jumping in and knocking a few away.
"What kind of W is that!?"
W continued fighting and eventually grabbing two Masquerade Dopants before throwing them to the side. W then roared like a berserker before fighting. As they were fighting, Asuka and Fu dragged Yugi and Shinji's body to a safe spot.
Nihlus then decided to intervene.
"Henshin!"
He placed the card in before closing the Driver.
"KAMEN RIDE: DECADE!"
Nihlus ran as he transformed into Decade. He was fighting a few Masquerade Dopants as the others were trying to restrain W.
W, however, threw them off before kicking another and throwing a different Masquerade Dopant into a support beam. She continued punching them before pouncing on a Masquerade Dopant and beat him with her fist.
She then pushed the horn on Fang Memory once.
"ARM FANG!"
Soon a curved white blade extended from her right wrist and she slashed through two Masquerade Dopants before exploding. She continued slashing through them and slashed the ones that Decade was fighting.
"Rei-!" Decade called before W slashed him a few times and kicked him away.
"Nihlus!" Fu called before going to Decade's side.
"I'm fine." Decade said as he tried to get up while looking a W. "But I don't know about those two."
W stopped for a second as if she was being restrained. Her left eye started blinking.
"Rei, stop this! Just calm down!" Shinji warned but W broke free and continued rampaging.
W then looked at the Cyborg Dopant and charged.
"S-Stop!" The Cyborg Dopant warned before firing his gun.
The bullets didn't seem to affect her as she slashed the Dopant. Dark Decade was observing.
"So she's using it…" Dark Decade observed as the female W was showing no mercy to the Cyborg Dopant. "The Memory that exists to protect her. In order to protect Rei,it will use whatever means to do so. A warrior who will eliminate all enemies. A being who can give W…a different face." Dark Decade noted as W was clawing the Cyborg Dopant.
W's eye blinked again as she grabbed the Cybrog Dopant.
"I see! This is Rei when she's afraid!" Shinji noted. Rei was fearful after the first experienced but…that fear is what fueling Fang's berserker state.
The Cyborg Dopant flew and rolled on the floor and noticed Asuka nearby. He got up and grabbed her.
"Stand up!"
"Hey!" Yugi called while struggling to get free.
"What do you think of this?" The Cyborg Dopant asked as he held Asuka with his sword against her neck.
W just roared while her eye blinked.
"Asuka!" Shinji called as W charged.
"Stop! Don't get any closer! I'm warning you!"
"Rei, stop!" Decade called as he tried to rush towards W.
"Wondergirl, stop!"
"Why, you! Stop!" Shinji said once more.
W was getting more and more closer and seemed intent on slashing even with Asuka as a hostage.
"I said stop, aibou!" Shinji called before a bright light appeared in his side of W's mind.
(In W's mind)
Shinji soon found himself in what appears to be the GaiaLibrary but everything was dark and burning.
"Is this the GaiaLibrary?" Shinji question before he shook his head in realization. "No…this is the inside of Rei's consciousness. She must be in pain and fear from Fang." He deducted before he heard Rei's shout echo all over the place. "Rei!"
He ran all over the place, looking for his partner. He soon came across a pile of unburned books. Shinji saw a title on one of the books that says "Fly Me to The Moon". Shinji remembered how Rei loved the moon and dug through the pile to find Rei. He pulled her out as she opened her eyes.
"I knew you would find me, Shinji. I believed in you." Rei said. She knew she can't handle Fang alone but maybe with Shinji…a miracle can happen.
Shinji smiled.
"Of course, you idiot! What are we!?"
"That's right. We are…" Rei started.
"The two of us are a single Kamen Rider!" The two said together as Shinji grabbed Rei's hand and pulled her up. A light appeared in their combined hands and restored the Library to its previous state.
The two stared at each other with smiles, never letting go of each other.
"Ikuze, aibou." Shinji said.
"Hai, Shinji."
(Reality)
Asuka opened her eyes and saw that the Arm Fang was inches away from her neck. She looked at W.
"Asuka, I'm fine now. Are you okay?" The female W asked.
"Wondergirl…" Asuka sighed in relief as did the others.
W pulled Asuka out and punched the Cyborg Dopant, making him roll away. Soon Decade joined W as she crossed her arms in a thinking position before pointing at the Dopant with her right arm.
"Saa, omae no tsumi o kazoero!" W said in her dual voice.
The Cyborg Dopant tried to run away before W taped the horn twice while Decade got his gun out and placed a card in his Driver.
"SHOULDER FANG!"
"ATTACK RIDE: BLAST!"
For W, a curved blade on her right shoulder. She grabbed it and she along with Decade aimed as the Masquerade Dopants were trying to cover the Cyborg Dopant. The two fired.
The shots destroyed a few of the Dopants while the Shoulder Fang was flying around them and slashing them like a boomerang. It soon moved towards and slashed the Cyborg Dopant, downing him before flying back to W.
Amane soon arrived and looked at the Riders. W looked at her.
"Let's finish Miwa Amane's case now." W proposed. Her left eye blinked.
"For a Memory Break, we need the right and left sides in synch. It's Fang's special move so…how about Fang Strizer?" Shinji asked.
"Pick whatever name you want." W answered before she looked at Decade. "Mind helping?"
"No problem." Decade said as he got his card out and used it while W tapped the horn three times. The Cyborg Dopant got up to see.
"FANG! MAXIMUM DRIVE!"
"FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-DECADE!"
For W, a curved blade extended from her right ankle and Decade's cards appeared in front of him. The two jumped up and prepared their kicked. Decade's was a flying sidekick while W's was a flying roundhouse kick. Decade flew through the cards while W began twisting as blue energy formed around her.
"FANG STRIZER!"
The two soon collide their attacks with the Dopant but at the Ankle Fang connect with the Dopant, energy formed into a dinosaur head which bit down on it.
The Cyborg Dopant exploded before he reverted back to his human form and the Cyborg memory shattering to pieces.
"Hmph, seems fate is in their favor today." Dark Decade muttered before he drove his bike through a Gray Mirror.
"Keno!" Amane called before going to Keno's side.
"Miwa…" Keno muttered.
"Keno!" She said, glad that he was alright now. The two stared at this reunion while Asuka and Fu were untying Yugi.
(Later at Double Detective Agency)
Shinji was on his typewriter.
"Keno has been sent to jail and Amane kept her promise as well by turning herself in Dark Decade is still on the loose, disgracing the name 'Kamen Rider' but Rei obtained a new power. I will not say that Fang's reappearance after two years is a good but I do know that Rei has gotten stronger just how I need to be as well."
"Good boy!" Shinji heard from the garage. He decided to check it out.
He soon looked and saw Rei playing with Fang Memory.
"Oh hello, Shinji." Rei greeted as she turned to face Shinji.
"What are you doing?"
"I've gotten over my desire for a real pet and decided to use Fang as one." Rei explained with Fang barking happily. "I even taught him a few tricks. Want to see?"
"Sure, why not." Shinji said as he gotten a better and closer look.
"Okay! Fang, roll over."
Fang complied and did what she said.
"Beg."
Fang did just that. Shinji chuckled, this was getting amusing.
"Good, now play dead."
Fang's visor lit red before he blew up right in front of their faces. Shinji had a face filled with shock as his mouth was wide open but Rei just smiled and clapped.
"Good boy!" She complimented before all of Fang's remained gathered and Fang rebuilt himself. He barked happily.
Shinji just smiled.
'It might seem weird but it's normal in my books.' He thought before Rei showed Shinji more tricks.
(Omake: Kamen Rider Cops VII)
"Stop right there!" W said as he was chasing Eternal. "Stop! I'm an officer of the law! Now drop that man's wallet!"
Eternal didn't answer as they ran through the sidewalks.
"I'm warning you! I have a rock in my shoe, you do not want to make me do this!" W warned.
A few minutes later, they were running through the highway.
"This is extremely dangerous! Come back here!" W warned as he was avoiding cars.
Later, they were running through the forests.
"I said come back here, damn it!"
"You'll never take me!" Eternal mocked before they moved to a farm. And stomped through the vegetables there.
"Hey, my cabbages!" The farmer said before looking at W. "Is there anything I can do to help, officer?"
"Ah, sod off!" W said.
Soon, they were swimming through a river.
"Get back here this instant! Just stop!" W demanded before he and Eternal fell down a waterfall.
Soon they were back in the city.
"I said stop! Stop in the name of the law." W said, as he couldn't take it anymore.
Soon Skull appeared and tackled Eternal down.
"I got him!"
W's eye blinked as W tried to catch breath.
"You okay?"
"Well, it's not a competition, you know. Just glad that we can- you know what? Thaw was total bull-!"
AN: Alright, I'm finally done with this chapter and you'll see a Decade perspective soon. Also, the reason W is a girl in FangJoker is because that it's Rei's body being used and not Shinji's. And since she's a girl the armor adapted to her looks instead. ! Anyways, please review or send PMs for questions, comments, or concerns. Don't be afraid to review this chapter, send questions, or look at my other fics. Alright, I'm done, goodnight.
