(Metamorphosis – Blue Stahli (Life Theory Remix))
A redhead teen wearing a high-collared, armored shirt with black, plate-kneepad cargo pants walked forward in a devastated city with several deserted buildings and debris covering the area. As he walked, some shadow-like wolves stalked around him.
/I feel it right at the heart of me, and it grips me physically./
When he arrived at a clearing, the redhead took notice of the several monsters surrounding him.
/Dragging so far below and it's a violent vertigo/
Each wolf monster slowly moved forward to their prey as if expecting an easy meal. Then they pounced forward, intending on killing him quickly.
/Digging in like a parasite. Feeding off what I keep inside./
During the moment of the pouncing, time stopped for the teen and he noticed a man in red armor standing on top of a pole looking down at the teen. The man's helmet was similar to a rhinoceros beetle head.
/Manifest when I'm throwing trust. To the cold and the nebulous./
The man pointed toward the sky before disappearing into a white light. The same light shined upon the teen as he reached toward the sky. Then he slowly placed his outstretched hand over his chest.
/Something's changing, re-arranging me. Just beginning my own surgery./
Time returned to normal and the wolves were close enough to kill the teen. In quick response, the teen dodged the first wolf's swipe and took out an ax. Using his weapon, he cleaved the wolves apart in a single swing.
/Something's changing, re-arranging me. Amputating, what I no longer need./
Then he slowly took steps forward while changing his grip to the gun handle that connected the axe blade to the nozzle grip. He aimed the gun axe at his enemies before firing heavy recoil shots right into the wolves. Each shot tore apart the wolves from decapitation to blasting limbs off. Hearing a howl, the teen turned around and saw several wolves charging at him. The first wolf tried to bite him but he twirled around it before smashing his elbow into its jaw. Then he kicked another charging wolf into the sky. Jumping up with his ax at the ready, the redhead sliced the wolf vertically in two. The remains slowly disintegrated into ash. Landing, the teen aimed his ax's gun barrel and continued to fire well-aimed shots into his enemies.
/Now I'll cut away everything, and tear away everything./
From his back, a shadow wolf appeared to bite its prey with a seemingly successful surprise attack. Before it could reach his head, the redhead swung the back of his fist into the wolf's face, sending it back and landing onto the ground. The wolf attempted to get up only to be put down with a quick shot in the head. The wolves continued to swarm the teen, putting him at a disadvantage due to their large numbers.
/Just beginning, my own surgery./
Unfazed by the odds stacked against him, the teen raised his right hand to the sky as if willing something to come. Then a metal red beetle flew in from the sky, flying towards his hand. The male caught the beetle with ease and uttered a phrase.
"Henshin." Then the redhead slid the mechanical insect onto the buckle of his silver belt.
"HENSHIN!" echoed the red beetle as its eyes flashed upon being slotted into the buckle of the teen's belt.
/Now I'll cut away everything, and tear away everything./
The belt generated several hexagons that slowly constructed a bulky, silver armor with a blue lens on the helmet. A hiss could be heard from the armor and a shockwave followed, sending the nearby wolves reeling back.
/Amputating, what I no longer need./
Wielding his ax into battle, the transformed warrior charged in and cut down the several monsters before him. As he fought through the ranks of the monsters, an insectoid being slowly closed in on the battle. The being had a shell with a dark green color and its face had two skeletal hands covering its eyes. It had a five digit left hand and a massive claw that appeared to be its means of attack. Noticing the insectoid monster, the warrior placed his hand on the horn of the beetle.
/I cast off what it means to be. Ruled by the happening./
Slowly, the warrior used his right hand to pull on the horn of the red beetle at an angle with electricity sparking from the metal insect, causing a hiss within the bulky armor as it slowly pulled apart.
"Cast off!"
The warrior pulled the horn all the way to the right, splitting the beetle open, with the energy appearing to overload from the action.
"CAST OFF!" repeated the mechanical beetle.
/Moving past the experience,/
The armor shot off, hitting the several wolves from interrupting the transformation. The armor of the warrior became slimmer and a red horn slowly attached itself to the helmet.
"CHANGE: BEETLE!" announced the beetle.
/Never dwell on the evidence./
The warrior wielded his ax in his left hand and pressed three legs on the mechanical beetle with his right thumb.
"1, 2, 3." The beetle responded to the button pressing.
Then the armored warrior pulled the horn of the beetle back into its original position.
"Rider Chop!" shouted the warrior as he pulled the horn to his right side, causing tachyon energy to generate from the mask horn.
"RIDER CHOP!" The beetle echoed back.
The energy flowed into the warrior's left arm and energized the ax blade with a blue lightning glow. He lifted the weapon forward and swung his ax horizontally, creating a massive wave of energy that cut through the remaining wolves in an instant. Standing relaxed, the armored warrior looked at the insectoid being that stumbled towards him.
/Breaking off of the identity/
The monster growled with a chittering sound before it suddenly turned red, then its shell fell off. The monster took on a slimmer color with a majority color of white with black stripes covering its body. The monster had several insect legs on its shoulders and forearms. The mouth was circular with teeth in a circled pattern.
/I come and kill it when I contravene/
The two adversaries clashed in order to overcome the other. The armored warrior swung his ax, making several hits on the transformed monster. The monster growled and fought back with its claw, but failed to hit when the warrior ducked and weaved through its swings.
/I'm dissolving all of this/
The warrior grappled the insectoid monster and twirled his ax to change to his gun grip. Then he fired several shots into the monster's abdomen, making it wince in pain. The monster stumbled back before growling louder with an angered tone at how much trouble the Human was giving it.
/In the full metamorphosis/
The monster entered a stance before becoming a blur, as if its speed had increased dramatically. The disappeared monster did not seemed to concern the warrior as he did not look around in panic.
/Something's changing, rearranging me. Just beginning, my own surgery./
"Clock up." Calmly said the warrior as he slapped his hand on a button on his belt located at his left hip.
"CLOCK UP!" repeated the red beetle.
Time soon slowed to a standstill with the warrior preparing to fight the charging insectoid creature. He responded with a similar charge, running to defeat his opponent quickly before the speed boost of his armor deactivated. The two clashed with their fists raised and killing intent at a maximum level. The monster swiped with it claws, but still failed to injure its opponent. The warrior, in turn, blocked the swipes with his forearms before slashing each well-timed opening with his ax. The monster stumbled back in pain and frustration that it was still on the losing end of the battle. The warrior turned his back and pulled on the gun grip and barrel grip of his weapon. The action allowed him to unsheathe a blade that was connect to the barrel grip. Then he began to press the buttons on the red beetle again in order to finish the battle.
"1… 2… 3…" announced the robot insect.
"Rider stab!" shouted the warrior before performing the same action he made when he utilized the Rider Chop.
"RIDER STAB!" echoed the robot insect as Tachyon energy generated from the mask's horn once more.
/Now I'll cut away everything, and tear away everything./
The energy traveled to the warrior's left arm as it energized the short blade with a blue glow. The monster quickly charged at the warrior's back, thinking he left himself open. When it arrived in range, the warrior countered and stabbed his blade into the ribs of the monster. The white insectoid being could only chitter at a low volume before slumping. Then it exploded due to the tachyon energy overloading its body.
Standing up straight with no more enemies in sight, the warrior took the beetle off of his belt, causing his transformation to deactivate. The redhead looked towards the sky as the sun rose with the metal beetle flying away. He pointed his index finger towards the rising sun as a flying vehicle flew towards his direction.
"Walking the path of heaven, the one who will rule everything, I…am…Kabuto." He stated as the vehicle slowly landed in front of him.
A portrait was seen with a group of four letters, R, G, L, A. The portrait with R slowly lit up to reveal the redhead with his ax in his left hand and the mechanical beetle in his right. He had a determined look in his eyes and his mouth had a neutral form. Behind him was the warrior in bulky armor.
Author's note: This is an official trailer of my side story to the RWBY main plot. But the main characters won't have any interaction with main cast until the Initiation Test. The Riders I've decided to involve in this plot will be Kamen Rider Kabuto, Drive, Blade, and possibly Faiz. I am hesitant to use Faiz because of complications of the story's elements. The cause and effect situation would be when a Roidmude or Worm kills its target, that same target might turn into an Orphnoch. A Roidmude could absorb its host's Orphnoch information to evolve further. But a Worm's reaction is unpredictable, it could attack the transformed host or ignore him or her. I need some time to think and help in making this story. Review and PM me if you have an idea on who could replace Faiz. I will still accept help so if any of you have interest, just PM me.
Announcement: Thanks to Raidentensho, I decided that a Hibiki OC will join the team of my Kamen Rider and RWBY Crossover fanfic. But the inclusion of this Rider made me rethink on the team's fighting style. I originally planned for the team to be a team of Kamen Riders with the power of incredible speed at their disposal. But with Hibiki being added to the team, I am now torn between adding the Blade OC or a Kiva OC. Blade would work because of the Rider's Mach card and the other abilities at the Rider's disposal. But Kiva has different abilities that may work well with Hibiki in terms of sound and finishers. So I decided to place a poll to decide who would be the fourth member. The voting will start soon so do me a favor as a fellow enthusiastic reader to vote for who do you think should be the fourth rider.
Poll Results: After a couple of weeks of waiting, I am announcing that Blade will be joining this team. Giving thanks to the one (and only) voter who helped me decide.
