IS Infinite Build
Construct 48: The Dragon's Rejection
Sento: Kamen Rider Build, the Brilliant physicist Kiryu Sento, is pursuing the truth about the murder of Katsuragi Takumi to prove Banjou Ichika's innocence. But when the Pandora's Box is stolen from the Government building, and they lose the bottles needed for the Build transformation, Sento and his allies find themselves in a real danger!
Ichika: Wait… How many bottles did they grab?!
Sento: Let's see… One, two, three, four… sixteen I think?
Charles: How'd you lose so many?! And do you really walk around carrying all those?!
Ichika: Yeah, you'd think his pockets would be stuffed?
Sento: Don't start complaining about how I store the bottles. I just manage with the subspace storage somehow… Altho the system isn't perfect, clearly. Now, what'll happen on Construct 48?!

Ichika bounces a ball, Chifuyu sits with her arms crossed, Houki is petting the Cross-Z Dragon, Sawa-san is working on an article, Chloe is snacking on some chips, and Charles is sitting next to the fabricator. "Wait. Katsuragi is Stalk?" Everyone pirks up.
Ichika:(bouncing ball) That can't be. I know what I saw, not to mention it could equally be Ichijo-sensei.(tosses ball towards basket) I'm positive Katsuragi was dead in that room.
Sento:(sighs) That's the problem. That could've been someone else with Katsuragi's face. Stalk has the ability to change people's faces.
Chloe:(gets up) Is that even possible. I mean, it's possible but full body change takes quite a bit of time.
Sento:(stands up) It's hard to believe, but I was it happen myself. I can't deny the proof. Besides… When I put specifications for Stalk into Katsuragi's Data… This came up.
I pull up a video of Katsuragi.
Katsuragi:(takes out gun) This is the Transteam Gun. Based upon my friends Nebula Steam Gun, I created this system. By tapping into the bottles power, you will acquire strength comparable to the Rider System.(incerts bottle, then shows card and inserts into camera) This is Blood Stalk.(suit hologram appears) It includes a customizable voice altering feature. It could be the perfect rival to encourage the growth of Kamen Rider Hazard Level.
Chifuyu:(crosses arms) So Katsuragi built Stalk, too. Guess we can also assume the same for Night Rouge.
Ichika:(tilts head) So if we expose Stalk's identity, it would prove my innocence?
Sawa:(looks at Sento) But can you really fight Faust with the bottles you have?
Sento:(looks at Sawa) That's the real problem.(reaches into Ichika's pocket) Right now, all I have is…(Ichika: What're you doing?!)(takes out Dragon and Lock) The Dragon and Lock Full Bottles.(looks at Dragon) Plus, this one's kind of a dangerous.
Charles: So despite being a Best Match, the Lock Bottle can't moderate it's power? Are we out of options?
I look at the Cross-Z Dragon. "Not exactly. There is one thing.(everyone turns to Sento)" I look to Ichika and I point to the Cross-Z Dragon. "You'd have to synchronize with him, and use the Build Driver." Shocked everyone looks to Ichika. "Banjou's gonna transform?!" Ichika looks at me with shock in his face. "For Real?!" Ichika exclaims.
Meanwhile… We are Observer
The Prime Ministers of Hokuto and Seito meet with Gentoku. "How is Prime Minister Himuro doing?" Asks Mido "He's going to have to convalesce for a period of time." Gentoku reports to the two Prime Ministers. "Until then, I will be acting as Prime Minister." Gentoku says crossing his legs. "Are you familiar with this Faust organization?" Tajimi asks.
Gen:(leaning forwards) Are you suggesting the Touto Government has ties to them? I was under the impression that they were associates of Hokuto.
Tajimi: Do you really believe our government is in charge of those Freaks?!(stands up) That's obviously nonsense!
Mido:(crosses arms) There's no point in getting paranoid. For now, we'll let the Touto government deal with the issues.(looks at Gentoku) But… We will not wait forever.
Gen:(leans back) It's being thoroughly investigated.
With that the two other Prime Ministers leave the call. In a mist of smoke, Stalk walks out. "You sure you wanna make a promise like that?" Stalk walks over, Utsumi stomping over towards him. "Where did you come from?!" Stalk just pushes him aside, Gentoku stands up and looks at Stalk.
Gen: What do you want? Get out.
Stalk:(sighs) You just became acting Prime Minister, and you're too busy to see me. We've been pals in this three-legged race of ours for a long while… This painting is far from complete. And now you won't even tell me where Pandora's Box is being stored. Not to mention my plan has yet to be set in motion.
Gen: If you prove you're loyalty, then maybe I'll tell you.
A guard enters the room. "Who are you?! What are you doing?!" Demands the guards, as they stomp over to Stalk. "Get out of there!" One of the guards forces Stalk onto his feet, Stalk pulls away and smacks the guard as he turns to dust. The second guard grabs Stalk, but a tendrul enters the cheek of the guard and sends a massive dose of Venom into his system causing him to turn to dust. "Don't get cheeky. Faust doesn't belong to you." Stalk reminds Gentoku.
We are Sento
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Hazard Level 3.0! You've finally awakened, Banjou!" Stalk's words that day echo through my head. "If what he said is true. You are now capable of using the Build Driver." I say taking a seat at my workshop. I look over to the Cross-Z Dragon which is now resting on a little next atop the scaffolding.
Sento: That's why I built him, so you could transform with a single bottle. I figured something like this might happen someday.
Chifuyu: Though I suppose that brings up another problem, right?
Sento:(nods) The question is whether or not you have what it takes…
Ichika:(Grabs Dragon Bottle) I don't care what the question is…(walks over to scaffolding) Just gotta stick the bottle in there, right?(beats against chest) This'll be a piece of cake.(reaches out) I'm gonna beat Stalk's ass. Hey, come down.
It's never that easy Ichika. Something like this requires more than just willingness. That's when the Computer alarm sounds. "There's reports of a Smash sighting!" I get to my feet and start off, but Chifuyu takes me by the wrist. "Stay safe okay? It's okay to run." I give her a nod, and thus, Me, Ichika, and Charles set off.
Abandoned factory…
We patrol around the area. The Cross-Z Dragon flying close by. Looking at the factory, Ichika bumps into me. "Ow… What's with this outfit?" I ask, looking at Ichika whos disguised as a terrible bird/fishermen. "I'm obviously pretending to be birdwatcher so that I can scope out where the enemy is!" In a factory district, that's comprised of mostly metal and machine sounds rather than birds… "I don't think that works here." Charles responds wearing her school attire.
Sento:(tch!) This place is clearly the most suspicious. Also that makes you look dumb.
Ichika: Hey! I don't look that bad… Do I?
Houki: You do.
Charles:(nods) Yup.
"Oh come on!" We enter the factory, with no one around. "What the hell? There's nobody here..." Footsteps behind us, make us turn to Night Rouge and guardians following him. "I'll be taking those bottles too." I turn towards the Rouge. "So that's what this is." I say reading myself. Charles readies her IS for combat.
Ichika: Nah, not exactly. This is what I've been waiting for!(rips and tosses aside fake moustache.) Here's my chance to transform.(tossing and catching dragon bottle)
Sento:(grabs bottle out of air) No it isn't. You can't handle it right now!(straps Driver on)
Ichika: Why not?! And are you gonna be alright?
"I'll be fine, just handle the Guardians." I shake the bottles as formulas form around me. Opening the caps I place them into the Driver. "Dragon! Lock! Best Match!" I crank the handle as the Build armor base forms around me. "Are you Ready?!" "Henshin!" I exclaim, with the armor closing up around me and steam exudes out. "The Security Fantasy! Keydragon! Yay~!" I attack Rogue. "Alright!" Ichika shouts as he activates his IS and battles the Guardians.
We are Ichika
I punch away a Guardian but to no avail. "You have a blade idiot!" I take out the Yukihira, and cut down a guardian. "This is kinda rough without a bottle!" I shout cutting down another Guardian. "Welcome to the club!" Charlotte shouts back.
We are Sento
I manage to knock Rouge to the ground, but as I'm about to attack again. The Dragon powers go rampant, as I'm engulfed in flames. What is this?! My body's… Burning up! The form rejects and the bottles fly out. As I fall to my knees, the damage across my body has been as bad as before. "Sento!" "Sensei!" Ichika and Charles exclaims as they run over, as they finished the Guardians. "You okay!?" Ichika asks.
Rouge: Hand over those bottles… and I will spare your life.
Stalk:(entering the room) Grabbing the bottles without a word to me? Such a busy Batman.
Rouge: Stalk…
Ichika:(annoyed) Stalk!(grabs Dragon Bottle) I'm gonna kick your ass!
I grab Ichika before he gets to his feet. "You can't!" I protest against him, but like the Meathead he is, he "Get off! He's Katsuragi, man!" Stalk sighs as he points towards us. "Kinda slow to catch on, aren't you? I came here to help you boys." Stalk points out to us. Stalk wants to help us? Why… There's got to be a reason for this. Ichika stomps in anger.
Ichika:(annoyed) Screw that! You framed me for murder…(pulls away from Sento) So I'm gonna kick your ass! Time to see what you really look like! Come!
Charles: No you idiot! Stop you can't!
"Shut it! Come on!" Ichika shouts as he puts his left arm to the sky, as the Cross-Z Dragon folds up and falls into Ichika's palm. Ichika brings it close to his face as he shakes the bottle. Ichika opens the cap and goes to put in the Dragon Bottle. But then, an electric shock as the Cross-Z Dragon rejects him and flies into the air. "What the hell was that for?!(Cross-Z Dragon spits fire) Agh! Hot!" I sigh.
Stalk:(sighs) What's he doing?
Sento, Charles, and Houki:(in synch) Being an Idiot.
Stalk:(rests hand on waist) So I take it, that this is a normal thing that happens a lot?
Sento, Charles, and Houki:(in synch) Pretty much.
Ichika: Where do you think you're going, dragon?!
Sento:(disappointed) This is the worst possible outcome.
"Just get him out of here." Stalk says gesturing with his hand. As much as I have questions, Now's not the time for that. I grab the Lock Bottle, and Ichika as the three of us rush to leave the factory. "Come on!" I shout. "Hey, wait!" Ichika exclaims. "Hey there!" Stalk exclaimed as he throws a folded chair in the path of Stalks shot. "What do you think you're doing?!" Was the last thing I heard before the three of us manage to escape.
Back as the Cafe…
"Why did Stalk help us?" I ask, as I'm being treated by Chifuyu and Chloe. Ichika stands up holding Chloe's Stuffed animal in his arms. "Forget that, why couldn't I use the bottle?" I sigh, I was going to tell him but the Smash… Or rather the Ambush got in the way. I sit up straight, in the bed.
Sento:(points) That dragon is tuned to your limbic system, it won't be able to synchronise unless an emotional response clears the designated threshold. Once then you can transform.
Ichika:(turns away) I have no idea what you just said.
Chloe:(looks over) Basically, he's telling you that you have, to have the want to help people. To save them.(stands up and walks over to Ichika) Come on! Remember when you saved me from that Smash? Remember? Yeah? Remember?
Ichika:(sigh) I dunno why I would do that.(drops animal)
Chloe grabs her animal and stears at Ichika, as she turns away, reaching into her pocket. She turns back around with a butterfly knife in her hand, she flips the blade out and shows it to Ichika. "I'll cut you..." Terrified Ichika backs off. "Come on man, just take the bottle!" I sigh as I lie in my bed. "Ichika that sort of mindset isn't gonna win you any favors with the dragon." Houki bluntly tells Ichika.
We are Chloe
Ichika runs over to where the Cross-Z Dragon is resting, running past Sawa-san who was looking for something under the stairs of the Fabricator. That's where the Bug was put in. Sawa-san is off set, as Ichika reaches for Cross-Z Dragon. "Why are you flying away from me?!" Ichika jumps down and lies down on the ground. Sawa-san speed walks to leave, the face of concern across her face. "What's the wrong Sawa-san?" Sento asks.
Sawa: It's nothing… I should be going.(grabs bag) I need to write up that report.
Chifuyu:(turns to Sento) Come on, lie down. You need to rest for the time being.(silently to Chloe) Confront her.
I follow Sawa-san backup to the main room. I take out the Bug that I found. "Were you looking for this?" Sawa-san turns to look at me. I know that face, I know it very well. "So it is yours. Why would you bug this place?" I ask Sawa-san, no one hides this item unless they wanted to spy on us.
Sawa: I mean, it's obvious… For total coverage, of course! I'd hate to miss on a scoop just because I wasn't around-
Chloe: What do you think I am? A girl with no military background? Don't play dumb. The only people who put bugs in well hidden locations is to Spy on others. I should know.(walks over to Sawa) Just… Who are you?
I ready to ask the next question, that's when Ichika interrupts the conversation. "Hey! You two see the Dragon? Chloe, you left the fridge open!" I turn to Ichika. "What if the Dragon got out?!" "I don't care!" I turn back to see Sawa-san slipped out. She knew when exactly when to leave. Without hesitation too. "What's up with Sawa-san? Hey..." I ready my knife again. "I really am gonna cut you this time. Back off!" She's a spy. No doubt about it, but the question is… For who? And who trained her?
We are Observer
At the Ichigaya Fishing Centre, Chairmen Namba fishes for some fish while discussing with Gentoku. "Not only did you take the Pandora's Box, you've even got the Prime Minister's seat." A smile forms on the old man's face. "This'll make things much easier." Gentoku reports to Namba.
Namba: And the Box needs three more bottles?
Gen: Yes, sir.
Namba: What about the two Spare that were created?
Gen: While they can work, sadly they are outliers and aren't part of the Panel. We'll see to gathering the rest immediately.(bows)
Namba: Right. This country is finally going to take a step forward…(guard walks over)
"Sir, there's a call for you." The guard says handing Namba the phone. "Right." Namba switches the Rod's hand and takes the phone. "Chronicle Chloe is onto me. Her training must have tipped her off. I think my cover is blown." Sawa explains over the phone. "I see… Good enough." With that Namba hangs up, as he manages to snag a fish.
The next morning at School We are Sento
I walk through the halls. "Sensei? Are you okay?" I'm asked by a student walking by me. "F-Fine. Just some work injuries I took during the event at the Government building." I explain to the student. "Would you like some help with that?" The student asks pointing to some of the boxes and papers. "Sure, take the papers." The student grabs the papers, making the trip much easier.
Sento:(sigh of relief) Oh that a pain off my waist.
Student 2:(Comes over) Ah! Let me help as well!
Student 3: Me too!
Student 4: Me four!
The girls talk all the boxes off me, and leave me with nothing to carry. "Thanks. I feel a bit bad having you girls do this for me." I say smiling at them. "You're always helping us. I only feels right to pay you back." Well… I guess that works. Getting to my office, I open the door and the girls place down the papers and boxes. "Thank you for the help girls." I smile at them. "No problem… Um, could you talk to Banjou Sensei to possibly fix our grades?" Two students ask. I sigh, figured that their would be something to it. "I'll talk to her." The two clasp their hands together in joy.
Sento:(smirks) To get you two more homework.
Two students: Eeeehh~?!
Sento:(chuckles) You can't get anywhere without putting some effort into your work.
Two students: Come on~!
"No complaining. What about you two?" I ask the others. "We just wanted to help." "I see, then have a good day." I wave the four off, as they leave. I put away the papers before I get to the boxes. Opening the box, I take out the parts for a new blade. This blade I've decided to dub, the Beat-Closer. "Should you really be working here today?" I hear as I turn to the door, only to see Chifuyu standing in the doorway.
Sento:(taking out parts) I've been away from work long enough. I need to make up for it by working obviously.
Chifuyu:(sighs) You've more than made up for your day's missed. You're also injured, and can be excused.
Sento:(groan) … I know. But with all the bottles gone. And the Pressure on Ichika and Me are bigger than ever. It's just…(Chifuyu leans against desk)
Chifuyu:(crosses arms) You feel helpless and unable to do anything. You feel responsible to handle those kids. Right?
Sento:(nods) Hitting the nail on it's head. Groan~ I-
I get a light pat on my back, as Chifuyu hands me my tools. "If you need help ask. You're not alone here." Chifuyu… I chuckle, as I grab the Beat Clower's parts. "This is terrific. Thanks for the pep talk Chifuyu. You're the best." I say to Chifuyu giving her a smile. She smiles back and says, "No problem just don't hurt yourself too bad working on that." With that she leaves the room.
We are Ichika
"Hey did you hear? There's three Cadet Reps duking it out right now in Arena 3!" I student shouts as she grabs her friends and heads towards the Arena. "Cadet Reps? Wonder who?" "Let's go take a look." Charles recommends, the two of us head to the Arena. The two of us arrive to the sound of combat. Lasers the clash of metal and crashes. "Ichika. It's looking bad." Houki tells as we enter the viewing area. I'm stunned by what I see, I see Laura curb stomping Cecilia and Rin.
Ichika:(runs over to railing) What the hell is happening?!(looks at Houki) Just what are they doing?!
Houki: From what I heard… it seems this was from begin taunted by Laura.
Ichika:(looks at Houki) Two on one? But it seems that…
Houki:(points to Laura) It looks like her IS has some sort of barrier that is stopping both the Impact Cannon and live ammo shots. And when it's her turn, Laura moves at an alarming rate, it's greatly restricting the two's movements.
"AIC." Charles mutters, "Kiyaa~!" I turn back to the battle as Laura kicks Cecilia into the wall and stomps upon her head. A energy blade protrudes from her arm, as she swings the blade across Rin's chest damaging both her shield and her actual body. "So cruel… Those attacks penetrate their shield energy!" Charles shouts. I'm not standing for this! What does she want to prove with this?! "Laura! You Bitch! Stop it! Stop it!" I shout out, Laura looks over and gives a shit grin. Fucking Bitch! If the IS system cancels completely, then those two will be in real danger of death! Yet this bitch… "Someone get a teacher! Come! Byakushiki!" My IS forms on me, I clench my fist with the Dragon bottle. I give the bottle a shake and I punch the protective glass, shattering it. I fly towards the Bitch, readying my blade. "Let them go you Bitch!" I swing and Laura puts up a barrier that stops my movement.
Laura: Rushing in head-on, without a plan… A textbook example of an amateure.(aims cannon) You faced with me and the Schwarzregen you are completely powerless. Now disappear.
Fucking… Bitch!
