-Chapter 5-

Another TIME!

-Torigoth-

"..." Gramps , Pyra , Nia and Dromarch were on one side of the table.

Some nice tea to calm down after he did such a stunt perhaps?.

"..." Rex on the other remaining silent.

After escaping from Brighid , Gramps , Driver and Blades took Rex to an Inn.

"Soo..Have you felt how nice feels the bree-!" Not needing to say.

"WHY DID YOU WANDER OFF?!" Screaming on unison Rex fell off comically.

They were pissed off by his actions...

"Why the bloody hell did you just leave?! Weren't you all "We need to stay together!" And the first thing you do is Wander off on your own?! Nia felt betrayal , just when she was starting to feel some sort of bond.

"Rex , let me remind you : Our goal is to reach Elysium we can't just distract ourselves" Pyra tried to reason with him

However , Inside her mind realm.


"A-Are we really not going to stop Malos?" Asked Pyra to Mythra , her blond self only rolled her eyes.

"This world doesn't need another Aegis War Pyra" Her mind couldn't move on , what happened 500 Years ago..is still fresh for her.

Titans were falling and Two World-ending blades awake , Alrest was doomed since their Father made Mankind live outside of Paradise.

"Mythra! We have to stop him!" Pyra had less power on her actions since Mythra can easily swap or influence her.

"The World is ending Pyra , It doesn't need another calimity to finish the job ." Really wanting to slap her for saying such things.

Her power was a blessing! Practice and patience was the Key.

"I will go back" Mythra's case was getting worse by each second.

They needed Elysium...

Or maybe something else.


"Pyra!" Azurda called and third time's charm! Our Aegis recomposed herself.

"Sorry! I-I was lost in thoughts."She apologized , her tea was cold..

"Nia! Give me that Ridewatch!" Rex chased a quick one.

"Think it as your punishment!" Her eyes focused on the Yellow and Black Stopwatch.

Rex wanted to scream! It's like they forgot what happens if...

[TITAN'S FOOT! I FORGOT TO TELL THEM!] Later he would slap himself , How could he forget such vital information?!

"You are too slow Rex - Wah!" Dromarch tired of games stopped his lady making her...

Drop it..

"My lady please behave!" His voice made Nia rethink again.

Rex could be scold later ; Their trip was a priority.

"S-Sorry" Recovering her senses again and looking over Rex.

His faced showed true Despair.

"Look! a lucky token!" A woman grabbed the Ridewatch thinkingit was gold.

Rex running to stop her.

Failed.

The woman activated the Ridewatch and..The World fell around her.

"MOOM!" A kid tried to pick her up and help yet failed.

"R-UUUN! JUST RUN!" Corruption filled her body and tainted her soul becoming a shell of her former self.

An Another Rider.

Horrendus..the body of this beast looked like a deformed version of [Kamen Rider Kiva]


"Pyra..What is that?!" Mythra's voice filled with concern..

This was the first time her database as the Aegis had failed.

"I-I don't know" Chaos started to erupt , ANOTHER Kiva transformed anyone within her range into monsters..

People started to devour each other..

She had to do something.

"Mythra we need your power now!" Trying to make her act Pyra forcefully swap.

It didn't happen.

"What makes you think I stand a chance?! I don't know what that thing even is!" Not now please! Once again she tried to swap.

"Pyra! I won't go! Just escape with Rex and Nia!" Her redhead self groaned.


Nia's face lost her color as Dromarch dragged her out.

The massacre spread quickly and they had to flee..

Rex had other plans..

[..Why..WHY?!] Punching through one Fangire tears started to come out.

[WHY IT KEEPS HAPPENING?!] His moves were quick..

No more games.

[ZIKUU DRIVER!]

"Pyra!" He called his flame Aegis and she came back to his side.

"Rex! Do you know what those monsters are?!" Her mind didn't process well their current situations.

"Fangires" Slashing through one , Pyra saw it become glass and then break.

"D-Did they?" She didn't want to think a worst case scenario.

"Die? Yes" His voice wasn't so full of energy anymore.

"Henshin" His transformation annouced and [Kamen Rider Zi-O] appeared.

Alongside him

"My Demon Lord , it's a pleaure to see you again." Woz appeared out of nowhere as usual.

"IWAE! (REJOICE!) as your King will spread judgement towards these demonic fiends! Let the corrupted be slain and pure ones be saved! " People who were lucky not to be infected watched horrified how Zi-O effortessly killed monsters...their loved ones.

Pyra felt tremendous amounts of Guilt looking at Rex kill people for her sake..To reach Elysium and offer her life to pay for her sins.

Glass covered the floor and only one monster remained..

ANOTHER KIVA.

"GHRAAAAAHHH!" Another Kiva launched several Bats to attack them.

[..No matter how much I try to run...I can't escape from it] Rex used Pyra's sword like a boomerang...

"BLAZING END!" Pyra shouted.

"Don't hold yourself my Lord , if you desire to save these people you need to use your inheritance" Woz kept dragging him towards that path..

"REX?" Pyra needed help , she couldn't keep it much longer.

Fate is calling him...forcing him.

"If I have to go to hell..then I will do it on my terms" Holding Kiva's Ridewatch , he activated it..

.

[KIVA!]

"Lets just end it.." Placing the Ridewatch on the free slot..he didn't feel triumphant.

[ARMOR TIME!]

His belt manifested a giant bat ; his Armor changed gaining a simillar aspect to Another Kiva

[GABU! KIVA!] His eyes were yellow , even Pyra gained some Ornaments on Red , Black and Yellow.

Torigoth remained silent , not a single soul to cheer up

"REJOICE! The one to inherit all Rider Powers! The King of Kings who will rule over the past and future! And his name is Kamen Rider Zi-O Kiva Armor , Bow and praise as he delivers justice alongside his Blade , the Aegis" After his speech , Another Kiva roared again.

Day became Night.

"..." Rex prepared for a finisher infusing his sword with Kiva's power.

"Pyra.." He called her and she answered , She..liked this stream of Power.

It wasn't Ether.

"Understood" Her flames impregnated the sword.

"Burning SWOORD!"

Another Kiva consumed by flames before transforming into glass.

Rex gave two steps and touched it...Breaking appart

"I'm sorry" Rex walked out of the Town , People started to shout at him.

MURDERER! KILLER ! MONSTER! DEMON!

"DEMON KING! DEMON KING!" Everyone shouted blaming him for everything , Guards did nothing as they were afraid and some dead for infection.

Pyra and Azurda followed him..they couldn't just leave him alone , Nia and Dromarch left but Rex was their prority.

Being a Kamen Rider is not a game.

Rex felt despair..


A/N

Hello! How are you?! I hope you are doing well.

And so it starts...

Just as Planned! An abrupt beginning! to start fleshing out characters!

As I stated before this is not a 100% accurate telling of XC2 so don't get mad if things happen as it should.

I will explore plots Zi-O couldn't like..

How Ohma Zi-O was born?

How was the so called "Path of Tiranny" Ohma went through?

etc etc only with Rex and Co.

As Zi-O did it wrong potraying power ups as something "Heroic" (As it should be a contrary effect) so each time Rex uses Armor times don't expect a heroic reprise.

Stay Tuned for more!
