Chapter 9: World of Forgotten
Stretching his arms and tail, Dragonic grins energetically for today's adventure. He eyes Natsumi and Yusuke already ready for the day as he proudly tells them. ''Welcome to-''
He suddenly cuts off, eyeing the drop background to his dismay where they were, dropping his jaw and he widens his eyes in terror. ''Oh god.''
Natsumi blinks with Yusuke asking, puzzled. ''What?''
Dragonic groans in a crouching pose, revealing to them. ''This is the World of Den-O.''
''Ah so this is the A.R. World of Den-O. So Imagins doing no good and time traveling?'' Tsukasa announces walking up in the room, wearing a detective-like Sherlock Holmes outfit with a briefcase and a pocket watch strapped on it.
''TECHNICALLY.'' Dragonic utters out loudly as he explains that the World of Den-O has no such thing as an A.R. Rider of Den-O since the original rider of Den-O is a singularity point, meaning he would be the A.R. version too. Tsukasa hums but shrugs it off as that is not his problem; his true goal is fixing the problem of this ''world''.
Yusuke notices the outfit and asks him, puzzled. ''Detective?''
''Sherlock Holmes much?'' Natsumi says giggling. Yusuke staggers, still not sure what that is.
Tsukasa checks his pockets and feels something. He pulls it out and it is a strange ticket-like card pass. Natsumi notices it uttering. ''A card?''
Dragonic looks at it and says in amazement. ''Oh hey, a Rider Pass!''
Tsukasa looks at it, figuring as much as he explains. ''This is the ticket for the train that travels through time, DenLiner.''
Natsumi and Yusuke eye each other as did Absol clueless. Tsukasa begins sliding the card into the card holder with Dragonic teasing with a grin. ''Must be yours.''
Tsukasa isn't so sure but why does he have it? And it was inside the outfit so there must be some connection to that.
''A train that travels through time?'' Natsumi mutters in awe that such a thing exists with Yusuke uttering out loudly. ''A time machine?!''
Tsukasa makes a disgusting look at how stupid but correct that he put it… but it still annoys him.
''How do we board something like that?'' Natsumi then asks with Tsukasa not sure. ''No clue Natsumikan.''
Tsukasa walks out from the studio going to see where his key will lead him.
''I don't know that part. For now, when you think about trains, stations come in mind.'' He announces knowing the road will lead him as a conductor walks past him.
Just then a yellow orb suddenly appears over the sky and flies right into Tsukasa's back before anyone knows what happened. Tsukasa gasps as he suddenly drops the briefcase as sand leaks out from underneath his pants legs.
Natsumi and Yusuke notice this and then she sees sand. She gasps, asking him worried. ''Hey, Tsukasa-kun! What's with all that sand?''
Tsukasa did not respond. Natsumi eyes him worryingly as she approaches him and taps on his shoulder. At that moment, Tsukasa pulls the detective hat off, revealing a single strain of hair turned red.
''Move it kid!'' Tsukasa's body but with a more dramatic voice speaks through as he brushes Natsumi back. She is startled to see his eyes are glowing red as well as wearing a red scarf now. He gazes at a conductor just passing by and assaults him, demanding angrily. ''Get out! I know you're in there, asshole!''
Natsumi is left speechless as this was not Tsukasa.
Yusuke tries stopping him but Tsukasa pushes him aside still demanding the conductor to reveal himself. Just then the same man starts laughing, smirking as he pushes Tsukasa aside as sand bursts out of his body, revealing a mole-like Imagin monster with a saw-like weapon.
''Just what I thought! You seemed like kind of a dunce!'' The not Tsukasa declares with a firm smirk. He suddenly wears the Den-O Belt while holding the Rider Pass.
''Why does Tsukasa look so different?'' Natsumi questions his appearance. Absol starts sniffing the air towards him and immediately growls. ''Absol!''
Dragonic nods in agreement telling Natsumi and Yusuke. ''Yup! That is not Tsukasa-kun.''
Natsumi blinks not following.
''Let's go! Henshin!'' The not Tsukasa shouts, swiping the pass in the center of the belt as it glows. Red logo manifests through him with the belt announcing. ''SWORD FORM!''
Everyone watches as he transforms into Kamen Rider Den-O, immediately posing as he announces in a crouching pose with his arms spread apart on both sides as he releases vapor of energy across his body. ''Ore... Sanjou!''
(It is translated as ''I have arrived!'')
Natsumi drops her jaw slightly with Yusuke also surprised. Den-O comes charging at the Imagin, fighting him aggressively with full power punches and kicks. The monster gasps in agony as Den-O summons its weapon and swings aggressively, multiple sparks flying out in pain.
''Well this is interesting!'' Dragonic says watching the beat down. Natsumi still doesn't follow as she asks the dragon. ''What just happened, Dragonic?''
The purple dragon hums thinking for a moment and answers. ''Well as an easy assumption, Tsukasa is possessed by an Imagin.''
Natsumi and Yusuke both lean their heads to the side, surprised. Dragonic nods explaining it. ''Yes, they can possess people but not all of them are evil. The one possessing Tsukasa is actually the other half of turning one into Den-O.''
Yusuke just utters surprised as Natsumi questions. ''So the one in Tsukasa-kun is a good guy?''
''Yup!'' Dragonic replies with a grin. Natsumi still groans, not liking that Tsukasa is basically possessed.
They look back at the fight and blink as the Mole Imagin drills itself into the ground. Den-O chases after him at the hole but the monster has escaped.
''Oi, come back and fight, jerk! Is that the best you got asshole?!'' Den-O yells down at the hole at the cowardly monster while stomping his foot on the ground. No reply. He groans irritated as his transform gets undone and walks to hunt down the thing. However Natsumi gets in his way.
''Tsukasa-kun?'' Natsumi asks, trying to reach out for her friend. But the one possessing him makes a puzzled raised eyebrow expression, uttering out. ''Huh? Who the hell is that?''
He walks past her but Natsumi once more gets in front of him.
''Please give him back my friend's body!'' She asks the one controlling Tsukasa's body. He scoffs, annoyed, protesting. ''And why the hell should I-''
Seeing that this thing isn't going to leave Tsukasa's body, Natsumi decides to take action lifting up her right thumb and immediately attacks him with the Laughing Pressure Point across his neck.
''GAAHAHAHA!'' The Imagin possessing Tsukasa lets out a laugh so hard it literally sends him flying out of Tsukasa's body. The real Tsukasa laughs in his regular manner, still laughing. ''HAHAHA! What was that for Natsumikan?''
Natsumi sighs with relief he's back to normal.
''WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR, BASTARD!'' The group startles turning to see a reddish ghostly figure with the same voice that possessed Tsukasa.
''He possessed your body.'' Dragonic points out to Tsukasa who adjusts his clothing and notices the red scarf. He comments, getting it. ''Well that explains much.''
The spirit starts having a temper stomping his foot on the ground, liking that body. He yells at Tsukasa. ''I need that body, bastard!''
He flies at Tsukasa who reaches and grabs Yusuke by the shoulder.
''Nope.'' Tsukasa responds as he pulls Yusuke in front of him. Yusuke panics, yelling out. ''Woah wait-''
But he gets cut off as the spirit of the Imagin enters his body. Sand pours down from underneath his pants as Yusuke gains the red hair strain sticking out. Natsumi sweat drops gazing at Tsukasa's decision who smirks, dodging getting possessed again.
''Damn bastard! What was that-'' The Imagin possessing Yusuke demands coming at Tsukasa with a punch who evades with ease. He growls, coming at him with a big swinging punch but Tsukasa evades and dodges with the greatest of ease before grabbing his right arm and sweep kick him onto the ground. The possessed Yusuke gasps in agony on his knees and his arm twisted up so easily.
Tsukasa scoffs realizing this idiot fights like a brawler, no style in his movement or strategy. Oh well. He reaches and takes the Rider Pass, demanding. ''You can have this back if you tell me what I want to know.''
''Like I want it!'' The possessed Yusuke responds, not caring if he doesn't get it back as he can still fight. Tsukasa listens and actually believes him. He releases his grip as the Imagin gets up grunting.
Tsukasa then tosses the Rider Pass to him, instead asking him with a smug smirk. ''Then what do you want?''
The Imagin blinks thinking for a moment and grins.
Now wearing his casual clothes, Tsukasa with his arms crossed watches with Natsumi, Dragonic and Absol at the possessed Yusuke eating a large bowl of pudding with such satisfaction and delight.
''Pudding?'' Natsumi questions really surprised with Dragonic adding eating his own bowl of pudding but smaller. ''Guess even a monster enjoys sweet treats.''
Natsumi sweat drops heavily. Tsukasa watches the possessed Yusuke eating the pudding with a spoon, asking him. ''You like?''
''The best!'' He expresses dining in so happily. Tsukasa smirks as he grabs and slides the bowl to the Imagin's shock to the edge of the table.
''Now talk or else I drop the bowl.'' Tsukasa threatens him as the Imagin actually freaks out trying to reach the bowl but Dragonic's tail slaps his hand, gasping him in pain. He groans not having a choice but to tell them. Tsukasa smirks, sliding the bowl back to his possession.
The Imagin begins to explain his situation as he was suddenly put here and can't remember much if not anything.
''You lost your physical form?'' Tsukasa inquiries,, rather surprised. Dragonic, still dining on his bowl of Pudding, explains this part to the rider. ''When an Imagin loses their physical body on top of their sand form, they're left in a rather amnesia state unable to remember who they are and require a body to maintain their very being or else they would lose itself and POOF.''
Natsumi gasps, now getting it.
''I get the gist now of this world's problem. Though why did I have the ticket to board the DenLiner.'' Tsukasa then questions why he had the Rider Pass. Dragonic hums curious about that too, probably likely that Tsukasa had the most potential to be the Imagin's host body… at least in this world.
''Then we need to restore his memories and-'' Natsumi comes to the conclusion until she hears screaming. The group looks outside to see people running for their lives from the mole-like Imagin again.
''It's the Mole Imagin!'' Natsumi points out in shock. Immediately the possessed Yusuke runs at the monster who sees him and digs back into the ground, letting the sign of burrowing on the ground as trail.
''COME BACK HERE COWARD!'' He yells furiously chasing after the monster. Natsumi panics, chasing after him with Tsukasa sighing, following behind with Dragonic and Absol. Sadly they lost him so they had to count on Absol to sniff him out.
''He shouldn't be far gone.'' Tsukasa points out, certain that they will find him. Natsumi eyes him curious why he thinks so and asks him. ''Why do you want to help him?''
Tsukasa eyes her confused and just answers her uninterested. ''Other than hurrying up to save this world, you told me to be a hero remember?''
Natsumi blushes wrapping her arms on her back saying with a smile. ''I guess I did.''
Tsukasa cracks a smile. Dragonic smiles too.
They look around the city without any direction even though Tsukasa was certain they'll find that idiot. However a flirting man approaches Natsumi, flirting with her asking if she works as a model. Natsumi groans unease as Tsukasa takes photos eagerly following this flirt while Dragonic pretends holding a lighting pole. The man expresses he's never met a city girl like her before.
''Natsumikan? A city girl?'' Tsukasa questions out loud, laughing humorously. ''She's obviously a direct delivery from the country.''
Natsumi gives a glaring stare with large puffy cheeks. Tsukasa taunts by faking that he's scared, commenting with a smug smirk covering his neck from the possible Laughing Point Pressure. ''How's scary!''
The man then tries asking her out but then the man gets bumped by a stranger.
''Hey, watch it! I'm talking to this angel!'' The flirt man yells at the one who pumped into him. The man he was yelling at had brown hair and a face so clueless until he smiles, asking as he points at Natsumi. ''You mean the little miss?''
The flirt groans angrily nodding. The man staggers and quickly apologizes, actually carefree. ''Sorry, I didn't mean it!''
Natsumi sweat drops, nodding not meaning for him to get involved.
''I said butt out!'' The flirter yells madder at this man. The brown headed blink puzzle by his yelling until he smiles and asks, reaching to his bag. ''Oh, you want to try this?''
They watch as he pulls out a red bright tomato.
''A tomato?'' Tsukasa mutters with a bizarre expression on his face. The young man smiles as he tells them. ''I grew these the other day and want to know if they taste good.''
Natsumi giggles, having never seen such a bright, healthy tomato before.
''I said beat-'' The flirter man begins complaining only for the stranger to quickly shove the tomato into his mouth. He gasps, forced to eat it, struggling.
''Taste good right!'' He asks him to his annoyance, struggling to eat it and runs away.
Natsumi sighs of relief eyeing the young man and thanks him with a smile. ''Thank you.''
He smiles with a nod, adding with a sweat drop. ''I could tell that guy was really weird.''
He then recalls something reaching into his bag and pulls out a cucumber, offering it to Natsumi. ''Want to try this cucumber? I grew it the other day too, still fresh!''
''Ah thank you.'' Natsumi says, partly confused but she's willing to try it. She eyes the cucumber and takes a bite on it, moaning happily.
''Really good right?'' He asks her with a big smile. Natsumi nods, smiling. Tsukasa raises an eyebrow and asks, puzzled. ''Are you some bizarre farmer?''
The young man blinks asking him. ''Me? Nay, I just like growing veggies or other stuff to make amazing food with!''
''Then you're a farming chef?'' Tsukasa questions him with the stranger's reply being with a smile. ''Yes!''
Tsukasa hums somewhat impressively. As the flirt guy comes back for round 2 just, another yellow orb flies down going inside Tsukasa. He gasps as sand comes out from the ends of his pant legs.
The flirter tries to get Natsumi's love only to get pulled back by a cane.
''Oh. You're a human.'' Natsumi blinks by the new voice and widens her eyes in a freak out manner. It was Tsukasa but he's now wearing a white-blue colored tuxedo with a top hat and a pair of glasses. His eyes were blue and had a blue strain of hair.
The gentleman Tsukasa separates the flirter away from Natsumi, excusing himself. ''Pardon me. I thought for a moment there was some garbage stuck to her.''
The young man blinks, puzzled by the change but does respond pointing to the flirter. ''Him?''
''Yes him.'' The possessed Tsukasa tells him. Natsumi slowly realizes what is happening, asking him. ''Tsukasa-kun, don't tell me you-''
Just then another yellow orb enters inside Tsukasa's body, changing him.
''That isn't what we're after!'' Posing in a sumo-like squat, Tsukasa announces as he is now wearing some kind of old hermit-like man with his hair in a ponytail with a yellow strain of hair with yellow eyes. He poses his strength which freaks out the flirter who runs away and then the possessed Tsukasa tosses a tissue paper to the scared man.
Natsumi panics as Tsukasa has been possessed, a third time?!
However another yellow orb goes inside Tsukasa's body and changes him once more.
Once more posed, Tsukasa is wearing a break dancer-like outfit, dancing with his hair in a fuzzy wavy hair with a hat. He did have a purple wavy strain of hair and purple eyes while wearing black sunglasses.
''Yea! Let's beat Decade! Mind if I do it? Can't hear you!'' The possessed Tsukasa declares still break dancing, sounding very excited.
Natsumi watches so uneased. Dragonic figures as much, declaring. ''3 Imagins now.''
The brown haired young man blinks eyeing the dragon, almost not freaked out by his appearance and asks. ''Monsters right?
''Yes!'' Dragonic answers with a grin. The young man grins back as he gasps and pulls out a large plum. ''Plum?''
The dragon eyes it and grins accepting it. ''Yea sure!''
The man smiles, handing it over as Dragonic takes large bites, chewing hungrily. Natsumi sees this sweat dropping, reminding him as the possessed Tsukasa was being taken control by the three Imagin back and forth. ''Dragonic!''
Dragonic devours the plum rather quickly and says eyeing Absol. ''I got an idea. Absol?''
''Absol!'' Absol barks, smiling, approaching the distracted possessed Tsukasa and grins taking a huge bite on his right leg.
''GAAH!'' All three Imagin controlling Tsukasa scream in agony but this also awakens the real Tsukasa.
Tsukasa's eyes suddenly glow magenta as he speaks using his voice. ''GET OUT OF ME!''
With a burst of energy surrounding his body, the Imagins were sent flying off his body. Tsukasa breathes heavily wearing his proper clothes now.
''Absol!'' Absol barks grinning. Tsukasa eyes her and pets her head.
''Good work mutt…'' He just says to the mon, limping himself to Natsumi as the farmer chef asks while pulling out fresh spinach. ''Spinach?''
Tsukasa gazes at the vegetable and snatches it, taking a big bite on it, needing to nibble this pain in his leg and getting possessed twice. He chews on it and widens his eyes slightly, praising the stranger. ''Not bad.''
The young man nods, smiling. However this isn't over as the 3 orbs become ghostly forms of their Imagin selves.
''Hey! You can't kick us out!'' The purple Imagin, Ryutaros, calls out in a happy-going hipster-like nature. "Not like I care!"
''So not gentleman like.'' The blue Imagin, Urataros, expresses in a gentleman-like manner. "Do you mind?"
''We'll show you!'' The yellow Imagin, Kintaros, declares firmly and proudly. "And then you'll cry!"
The three fly towards Tsukasa who quickly hands back the spinach into the young man but by the mouth in his surprise.
''Hold still, farmer chef.'' Tsukasa tells him with a smug smirk as he grabs him by the shoulders and thrust him in front of him.
''WOAH!'' He yells in shock as the three Imagin enter his body instead. Natsumi sweat drops at Tsukasa's plan as did Absol while Dragonic nods, finding it clever.
Possessing this new body, Urataros declares with a small smile holding a Rider Pass. ''Now then… Henshin.''
He swipes the card on the now Den-O belt as it announces. ''ROD FORM!''
A blue logo-like symbol manifests as he transforms into the blue Kamen Rider Den-O Rod form. Natsumi staggers, surprised and worried too.
''Oh yea, they're all Den-O by the way.'' Dragonic discloses to them with Natsumi groaning more unease, begging for Tsukasa to stop this. ''Tsukasa-kun!''
Tsukasa is aware as he declares. ''All part of the plan Natsumikan.''
He straps on the Decadriver as he pulls out the Decade card from the Ride Booker, tapping it twice on the edge with his middle finger.
''I best beat you three to get the information I need.'' Tsukasa proclaims cocky as he declares sliding the card into the belt. ''Henshin!''
He pushes the handles as the Decadriver announces glowing. ''KAMEN RIDE! DECADE!''
Tsukasa, wiping his hands together, transforms into Decade as he comes charging. The two riders engage with Decade already delivering two strong punches back-to-back, sending Rod Form back.
Brushing off the damage, Den-O pulls out the DenGasher and changes it into its Rod Form, twirling it around before he calls out to Decade in a polite manner with a hand twirl. ''Bokuni Tsurarete Miru?''
(It is translated as ''Won't you let me reel you in?'')
Decade comes at him but now Den-O easily counters each strike and swings with pierce rod strikes, slamming Decade backwards.
Getting up fast, Decade brushes off the damage he took. He needs to finish this fast. He pulls out the Agito Rider card, declaring himself and its rider. ''Shoichi; let our souls burn.''
He dunks the card into the Decadriver, glowing.
''KAMEN RIDE!'' The Decadriver announces as he pushes one of its handles, transforming him into Agito. ''AGITO!''
Den-O startles as Decade-Agito breathes taking on a fighting pose, hand taunting him. Den-O comes charging with thrusting rod strikes but Decade-Agito reflects the strikes with ease before kicking Den-O back hard.
Decade-Agito pulls out a Form Ride card, tapping on it twice on the sides before sliding it into the belt's card inserter, pushing its handles.
''FORM RIDE!'' The Decadriver announces as he changes into the blue armored Agito with blue armor across the left arm and a shoulder pad too. He also wields a blue-golden pole arm that extends on its sides, showing its blades. ''AGITO STORM!''
Twirling the bladed pole, Decade-Agito comes charging and performs powerful swings from both weapon sides. Sparks fly out as Den-O is pushed back hard. He grunts as Kintaros takes control, speaking out. ''This will become troublesome.''
He swipes the Rider Pass as Den-O Belt announces. ''AX FORM!''
Den-O Rod form changes into the yellow Ax Forms. Den-O poses firmly as he wields the DenGasher in its Ax Form.
''Nakerude!'' He declares as he cracks his neck, warming up for battle.
(It is translated as ''You Cried!'')
"Show me yer strength!" Den-O calls him out as he charges forward. He uses his superior strength and endurance to push back and tosses Decade-Agito back hard. Scoffing this, Decade pulls out a Form Ride card and tosses it into the Decadriver.
''FORM RIDE!'' The Decadriver announces as Decade-Agito changes into red armor now with the right arm covered in the red coloring and a sharper shoulder pad. He also wields a red-golden sword with the crest of Agito as its guard. ''AGITO FLAME!''
He swipes the backside of the blade of the sword before coming at Den-O, striking back with greater superior strength. Den-O gasps out with sparks flying out as Decade-Agito's sword ignites in flames, striking Den-O with greater force. It pushes Ax Form slightly until Decade swings across him again, pushing him harder.
''Damn-'' He starts complaining before Ryutaros takes control and swipes the Rider Pass. The Den-O belt responds glowing as it announces. ''GUN FORM!''
Den-O changes now into the purple Gun Form. Den-O chuckles twirling the DenGasher change into its gun form with a sharp bladed top.
''Kotaewa Kiite Nai!'' Den-O taunts Decade-Agito as he fires quick energy barrages.
(It is translated as ''I can't hear you!'')
Decade-Agito tries blocking or parrying the long range attacks but Den-O goes crazy blasting with quicker successions while break dancing, breaking through his defenses. The shots finally push Decade back, panting a bit as he pulls out another Form Ride card, dunking it into the Decadriver
''FORM RIDE!'' The Decadriver announces as he pushes one of its handles with his free hand. Now Decade-Agito changes as his chest armor reverts back to the golden armor but both right arm and left arm takes on the other two forms' appearance as well as wields both weapons in their respective side hand. ''AGITO TRINITY!''
Den-O staggers as Decade-Agito comes charging. He tries blasting him but now Decade slashes through all the shots with both weapons with the greatest of ease before slashing him with both weapons. The attacks slam Den-O backwards with sparks flying out though he manages to stand his ground.
''Cheap shot! Not like I care!'' Den-O yells out angrily before he's swapped back to Rod Form, breathing as he takes a jumping pose as he swipes the Rider Pass. ''FULL CHARGE!''
Decade-Agito scoffs, pulling out a Final Attack Ride card and slides it into the Decadriver.
''FINAL ATTACK RIDE!'' The Decadriver proclaims as Decade-Agito discards both weapons and breathes, taking on the Agito preparing Rider Kick as the Agito symbol manifests underneath him. He now leaps forward as did Den-O, both performing their Rider Kicks and clash. ''AGITO!''
Both kicks clash and try overpowering the other until Decade-Agito overpowers him and slams Den-O onto the ground so hard it undoes the transformation and all 3 Imagin fly out from the strange, groaning pretty stunned and in pain.
Decade-Agito lands on the ground, wiping both his hands as he taunts the monsters. ''You all done?''
''W-we're good!'' All three utter out confirming they can't beat this guy. Natsumi sighs as she runs up to the young man's aid.
''You okay?'' Natsumi asks the stranger who smiles, confirming he's okay. He gets back up eyeing Decade-Agito and smiles praising him. ''Nice one, Tsukasa-san!''
Natsumi giggles a bit at how nice this guy is to- wait. Even Decade notices he called him by his real name. Sure Natsumi called him that plenty and yet it was like he knew him.
However before he could ask him anything else, another voice interrupts annoyed. ''Decade, you should already submit and die!''
Decade-Agito turns and it was Narutaki, not all surprised it was him. Natsumi groans really not liking this bad timing.
"Just the best of timings huh?" Decade questions, not looking forward to this.
Author's Note: Time to clarify things:
1) Like you know already the deal: This chapter is based on the two-parter episodes of Decade involving the ''A.R.'' World of Den-O… though Den-O's characters are all the same ones so… OKAY! And also huge changes made here unlike in the original two parter episodes.
2) Also before someone asked me, in the show we had a back and forth showing Momotaros within Yusuke, or M-Yusuke (since each Imagin's first letter of the name is next to the person they possess someone), has been trying to figure himself out badly until Kaito shows up, planning to capture the loss Imagin as one of his treasures. I removed that for this chapter
