Kamen Rider Kabuto: The Flower of Rin-ne
Chapter 9: The Stolen Belt
Standing on top of a building under construction, Issei Kurosaki is seen going through pictures of Muginami through his handheld device.
"This girl…" Issei said before he brought out a video he manage to find in the database of the Pharos facility, and it was a video of the third and final Vox Ignis and standing in front of it was none other than Muginami. "No doubt about it, she must be the pilot of Ignis...but still though who is she really and more importantly why interact with the other Vox pilots and the Kamen Riders of this world."
Issei then received a call and he soon answered it, and soon a holographic screen of a hooded man had popped up.
"Issei…" The hooded man called out.
"Lord Dark Decade." Issei said with respect as he bows his head.
"Status report, have you discovered anything?" Dark Decade asked.
"I did, I located the pilot of the third Vox Ignis." Issei told him.
"Oh did you now?" Dark Decade said with interesting smirk on his face.
"Not only that she also had made contact with Kabuto and the other Riders and with the other Vox pilots. If you want me to, I can capture her and the other two pilots and bring them to you, my lord." Issei said.
"There's no need for that, for now. Right now I'm still busy on other things, for now continue observing the Voxs and their pilots. Contact me if you learn anything new." Dark Decade told him.
"If that is your wish my lord." Issei said before he bows his head, before Dark Decade hangs up.
Issei then puts the device away before he looks at the city in front of him with a smirk on his face.
"Now then I wonder how should I proceed." Issei wonders out loud.

In Hiroshi's restaurant, Souji is seen cooking and preparing a new soup he had come up with two days ago. Souji then taste a sample of it and smiled on how good the flavor is.
He then heard someone walking down the stairs and entering the main room, Souji then walks out of the kitchen and saw Muginami entering the room who was yawning and stretching her arms.
"Morning, Muginami." Souji said as he waves at her.
"Oh good morning, Souji." Muginami said before she started to smell Souji's soup and was liking it. "Hmm...something smells good, what is it?"
"Oh it's a new flavor of soup I come up with. Do you want to try some?" Souji asked.
"Yes I would love to." Muginami nodded with a smile.
"Alright, I'll get it right now." Souji said before he walks back into the kitchen.
Muginami then sits down on a table as she waits for Souji's soup. Soon Souji walks out of the kitchen holding a bowl of soup in his hands and walks to Muginami.
"Here you go." Souji said before he placed the bowl on Muginami's table.
Muginami blinks when she saw that the soup was miso soup with small pieces of tofu with cut up pieces of green onion.
"Souji what is this?" Muginami asked.
"It's miso soup." Souji answered and saw the look on Muginami's face and figured that she was expecting something more amazing than this. "It may look simple but try it and see."
Muginami looks back at the miso soup before she shrugged and picks the bowl up and soon begins drinking the soup...and her eyes widen in surprise by the explosions of flavors that the soup has.
'What is this…? For some reason I can't stop drinking this…' Muginami thought in surprised as she kept drinking the soup until she drank the last of it which was much to her shock after seeing it was all gone.
"So what did you think?" Souji asked.
"It's amazing…" Muginami said in awe before she looks at Souji. "Just what did you do to make it taste so heavenly?"
Souji chuckles before he points his finger up.
"Obaa-chan once said this...fancy flavors aren't always anything, and so it's always important to choose your own path." Souji said which made Muginami blinks in confusion, seeing that made Souji made a few fake coughs. "Meaning, I made soup from scratch using ingredients that I have."
"Really?" Muginami said in surprise before she turns back to the empty bowl. "You made this from scratch?"
"Yes, I used some seaweed and with shiitake mushrooms to give the flavor more impact and more nutrition." Souji explains.
"Well I don't exactly get it, but its still an amazing soup. Can I have some more?" Muginami requested.
"Of course, I've made a lot so there's plenty to go around." Souji said before he walks to the kitchen.
As Muginami was waiting she looks around and saw that Hiroshi was not around and wonders where he is.
"Excuse me Souji. Where's Hiroshi-san?" Muginami asked.
"He's out of town for the day, meeting up with some friends of his." Souji said as he pours the miso soup he made into a bowl.
"Oh I see." Muginami said before she saw Souji walking out of the kitchen holding a new bowl full of soup before he gave it to Muginami.
As Muginami was slowly enjoying the soup, Souji was checking the food supplies in the kitchen and saw that they were running low.
"That's not good, might need to go grocery shopping later." Souji said before he closed the fridge.
"Hey Muginami," Souji calls out as he walks out of the kitchen getting Muginami's attention. "We're not running low in supplies so I need to make a run in the grocery store. Mind coming with me?"
"Alright, glad to hear that." Souji said.
After finishing her last bowl of soup Muginami and Souji then heads outside before Souji locks the doors to the restaurant. Then Souji and Muginami walks to his bike, Souji got on first and puts on his helmet and soon handed Muginami a spare one.
"Here." Souji said before Muginami grabs onto the helmet and puts it on.
Muginami then got on the motorcycle and sits behind Souji, then she soon wraps her arms around Souji to hold onto him and lean on his bike, when she did that Souji slightly blushed when he felt the smooth and soft feeling of Muginami's cleavage.
Souji shook his head and tries to ignore the feeling, before he started his motorcycle's engine and drives to the grocery store with Muginami riding behind him.
As Souji was driving down the road, Issei who was standing on top of a nearby building was watching him and Muginami with high tech binoculars, he had a smirk on his face as he watching them.
"Alright, he's on the move with the Vox pilot." Issei said before he turns around at three Salis Worms that was standing behind him.
These three Salis Worms were different from the others, they were colored black with grey highlights. These are artificial created Worms, created by Dark Decade and given them to Issei to help further his mission.
"You know your roles to play." Issei said.
"Yes master." The three Worms nodded before they change into their human forms, the forms of triplet brothers before they turned around and leave.
Souji and Muginami had soon arrived at the grocery, and is now in the store getting supplies for the restaurant.
While Souji was picking up supplies best on their price and sell dates, Muginami was eyeing his Rider Belt. When Souji picks out the supplies he then placed them in the cart Muginami soon looks away from his belt.
"Is something wrong?" Souji asked.
"Oh nothing, so what's next on our list?" Muginami asked.
"That would be fruits and vegetables. Just follow me." Souji said before he pushed the cart as he walks to the vegetable area and Muginami follows behind her.
After they arrived at the vegetable area, Souji was checking the freshness of the items that the restaurant needs, while Muginami wasn't all that interested as she looks around before something got her eye and it was a pile of apples.
Muginami walks to that pile of apples and then picks one up at look at it, she smiles seeing the red shine and color of the apple while feeling a bit of nostalgia.
After picking up the fruits and vegetables that he needs, Souji saw that Muginami was looking at an apple, before he walks behind her and looks over her shoulder.
"You like apples or something?" Souji asked.
"Oh something like that…" Muginami answered while avoiding eye contact.
"Hmm…" Souji hummed before he smiles. "If you want it then why don't we get it?"
"Really? Are you sure?" Muginami asked.
"Yeah, I don't see why not." Souji said before he walks to the crasher area and Muginami follows behind with a smile on her face.
After buying the supplies they needed for the restaurant, Souji and Muginami decided to walk back to the restaurant while holding bags of the groceries they had bought in their hands, Souji holding two bags in each of his hands and Muginami was holding one bag with one hand while holding the apple that Souji had bought for her with her other hand, and Muginami soon bites on her apple as they were walking.
Muginami is slowly enjoying the taste and sweetness of the apple.
"This is so good." Muginami said.
"Man you must really like apples don't you?" Souji asked.
"Yeah I guess you can say that." Muginami said as she looks at her apple before she took another bite of it.
As they were walking down the sidewalk, they were now walking by a convenience store and saw that someone holding two bags in her hand was walking out of that store which made them stop walking and Souji saw the person walking out was Mirai.
"Hoshino?" Souji calls out in surprised, which gotten Mirai's attention before she turns to him and Muginami.
"Tendou?" Mirai said in surprised.
"Well this is a surprise, I didn't expect to meet you here." Souji said.
"Neither did I." Mirai said before she set her eyes on Muginami. "You on a date with your girlfriend?"
This made both Souji and Muginami to slightly blushed when she said that.
"She's not my girlfriend!/I'm not his girlfriend!" Souji and Muginami said in the same time.
"I'm only kidding." Mirai said.
Souji then notices the bags in Mirai's hand and saw that it was filled with with a few bento boxes and frozen foods. Mirai saw that he was looking at her bags before she looks at it herself before she turns away from him.
"What? Look all you want I'm not giving you my food." Mirai told him.
"Your food?" Souji blinked as he looks at the two bags in Mirai's hand before she looks back up at her. "Don't you cook your own meals?"
Mirai slightly blushed before she turns away from him some more, until Souji realized something that she doesn't know how to cook.
"Let me guess you don't how to cook, do you?" Souji asked which made Mirai flinched.
"It's not like that! I just...didn't find the time to learn how…" Mirai growls.
Souji hummed in thought before he made his decision.
"If you want you can come by my uncle's restaurant and have some food there." Souji suggested which made Mirai blinked in surprise before she turns to him. "And I can teach you how to cook if you want me to."
"Well you can forget it! I don't need anybody's charity, especially from you." Mirai told him.
Souji sighs as he rubs the back of his head, while Muginami blinks in wondering why she was hostile to Souji. Muginami then looks around the area and soon something got her eye as she turns to it.
"Hey, Souji." Muginami got his attention as she tugs on Souji's sleeve before she pointed at a small billboard she was looking at. "What is that?"
Souji then looks at the small and saw that it was a message for a major shopping mall that was under construction in Kamogawa and saw the grand opening message on the board.
"Oh that, it must be talking about that shopping mall that was construction for a month or two. Guess they must have finished it." Souji said.
"Really?" Muginami hummed in thought before she nodded deciding on where they were going to go next. "Let's go check it out then!"
"Eh?" Souji said in surprised. "But we can't right now, we don't have the money not to mention we still need to bring these supplies back to the restaurant."
"Oh it will be fine." Muginami said before she grabs the bags Souji was carrying and pulls them out of his hands, before she turns to Mirai. "Hey, Hoshino right?"
"Yes?" Mirai said before Muginami handed her the bags into her hands.
"Can you do us a favor and drop these off in Hiroshi-san's restaurant." Muginami requested.
"Eh?!" Both Souji and Mirai gasped in surprised in the same time.
"Wait a minute, Muginami you can't just up and decided that by yourself." Souji stated.
"Oh it will be fine." Muginami assured before she hugs onto Souji's arm and begins pulling away. "Come on, let's get going!"
"Oh...alright fine…" Souji said before he turns to Mirai as he was being dragged away. "Sorry Hoshino, but you're gonna have to bring those supplies back to my uncle's restaurant. Here's the keys."
Souji soon brought out the keys to the restaurant and throws it to Mirai who catches it.
"What...but hey wait a minute…!" Mirai calls out wanting to have a say to that but was too late as Souji and Muginami were already gone. This made Mirai clicks her teeth having no choice now before she heads to Hiroshi's restaurant. "I swear the nerve of that guy...leaving a girl to do his own dirty work while he's going on a date with his girlfriend…"
After being dragged around by Muginami, she and Souji soon found their way to the shopping mall as they were now standing in front of the building, and Muginami was in awe on how big it was.
"Wow...it's amazing." Muginami said.
"Is this your first time being at a place like this?" Souji asked.
"I guess you can say that." Muginami said before she hugs onto Souji's arm and begins dragging him inside to the building. "Come on, now that we're here let's go inside!"
"Alright, I hear you! But can you please stop pulling on my arm like that." Souji requested.
After entering the mall, Muginami's first stop was a makeup store, and when they entered inside Muginami was getting her nails done by one of workers as they applied nail polish on them, while Souji was seated beside her minding his own business when he didn't bother to watch or get anything here.
After getting her nails done Muginami and Souji were now walking around the mall, until they stop as something got Muginami's eyes and Souji soon saw that it was a clothing store.
Muginami and Souji soon enters the clothing store, and it wasn't long until Muginami found and pick out several pieces of clothes for ideas for several outfits, as she was throwing the clothes at Souji who catches them with his arms and shoulders, and Muginami placed a summer hat on Souji's head.
Soon after that Muginami entered the dressing booth, as she changes into one of the outfits, while Souji was waiting on the other side as Muginami wanted to show off the outfits to him.
"Alright, I'm done." Muginami said before she opens the curtain.
Souji slightly blushed on what Muginami is now wearing, she was wearing a white summer dress with a long skirt with a matching summer coat and wears a summer hat with a sunflower accessory on top.
"Well what do you think?" Muginami asked.
"It...it looks good…" Souji said before he made a few fake coughs.
"That's nice to hear." Muginami said before she closes the curtain. "Just hang on I'm going try on a few more outfits."
"Of course you are…" Souji sighs knowing this is going to be a long day.
After waiting a short while, Muginami opens the curtains revealing a new different outfit.
Muginami is now wearing a orange hoodie with a white shirt with blue jean shorts with white socks and blue sneakers.
"Hmm...that's not bad." Souji said while being not that impressed compared to her last outfit.
Muginami noticed that which made her pout.
"You've could have at least acted to be more impressed…" Muginami mutters before she closed the curtains to change into her next outfit. "Just wait until you see the next one I have in mind."
Soon Muginami had now changed into the next outfit she had in mind before she opens the curtains to show it to Souji.
Souji slightly blushed once again on what she was wearing now. Muginami is now wearing a black and white french maid outfit.
"Welcome back, Goshujin-sama." Muginami said which cause Souji to flinch before he made a few fake coughs.
"You didn't have to call me that you know." Souji said, which made Muginami to chuckle.
"I know, I was just playing." Muginami said.
After showing off a few more outfits, Souji and Muginami then left the clothing store and continues to walk around the shopping mall.
Until something got Muginami's eyes as she stops walking, Souji then stops as well before he looks and saw that she was looking at a cinnabon store.
They soon entered inside, and Souji ordered and bought two cinnamon rolls for both himself and Muginami. Souji and Muginami were now seated on a table inside the store with their rolls on it, while Souji was pouring the cream cheese on their rolls Muginami was looking at the rolls with a curious look on her face.
After Souji was done pouring the cream cheese, he then picks up his plastic fork and knife and cuts up his roll into several pieces before he eat a bite of it. Muginami then picks up her own knife and fork and cuts a piece of her roll out and eats it and really like the flavor as her eyes widen in delight.
"Wow! This is really good!" Muginami said before she continues to eat her roll with Souji looking at her with amusing smile on his face before he continues eating his own roll.
After they were done eating they continue to walk around the mall as Muginami was looking around while Souji was following behind her.
Soon something once again got Muginami's eye as she and Souji stops walking, and Souji sighs before he looks at what she was looking at and to his confusion it was a men's clothing store, but soon realizes that it wasn't for her.
"Muginami are you planning on…?" Souji asked but before he could finished Muginami soon grabs onto his arm.
"Oh yes I am!" Muginami said before she begins dragging Souji to the clothing store. "Come on, let's go in and try on some new clothes for you!"
"That's alright, I'm not really into these kind of things." Souji told her.
"Oh don't be a spoiled sport…" Muginami pouted. "I already having ideas for outfits for you, so let's just try it!"
"Oh...alright fine…" Souji sighs as he and Muginami entered the store.
(Meanwhile)
Mirai had made it to Hiroshi's restaurant, as she stopped in front of the building.
"This must be it. Well I should just go in and get this over with." Mirai said before she brought out the keys and unlocked the door.
"Hoshino-san?" Mirai blinks before she looks and saw both Madoka and Lan looking at her with surprised looks on their faces.
"You two…?" Mirai said.
Soon the three of them entered the restaurant, and was putting the groceries away while Mirai was explaining why she was bringing them here.
"Oh I see now I'm really sorry about that." Madoka said as they were now done putting the groceries away before they walk out of the kitchen.
"It's alright." Mirai said.
"But I swear that Souji-nii, leaving a girl to do his own dirty work like that while he was out having fun." Madoka said.
"Well it wasn't tenchicle his fault. I mean Muginami was the one who dragged him away." Lan stated.
"Yeah, but even so…" Madoka huffed before she placed her hands on her hips.
'But still though, why would Muginami take Souji with her?' Lan thought in wonder before she started to have a conclusion about something. 'Wait a minute if she's alone with Souji, does that mean she's planning on…!'
Lan's eyes widen in horror before she turns to Mirai and walks to her, which Mirai soon notices as she turns to her.
"Can you take me to them?!" Lan requested which made Mirai blinked in confusion.
"Why would you want to…?" Mirai started before Lan interrupted her.
"Please I need you take me to them! Right now!" Lan demanded which made Madoka and Mirai wonders what was going on with her, and Mirai saw the look in her eyes that there was a hint of concern and worry in them, which gave Mirai all she need to know that something must be wrong.
"Alright, I'll do it!" Mirai nodded before she and Lan exited the building.
"Hey! Wait a minute!" Madoka said before she follows them outside.
Mirai had made Drake Zecter to call her bike to her, and it soon arrived. Mirai soon got on and puts on her helmet, and throws a spare one to Lan who catches it.
"Got on!" Mirai told her, Lan nodded before she puts on the helmet and soon sits behind Mirai.
"Lan wait! Just what is going on?" Madoka asked.
"I...I'm sorry Madoka I can't explained right now." Lan said before Mirai drives off heading to where the mall Souji and Muginami is, while Madoka watches them leave and is a little worried on what's going on.
(Back with Souji and Muginami)
Muginami had pick out some clothes for Souji to try on, and Souji was now in one of the dressing rooms to try it on.
"Are the clothes comfortable for you?" Muginami asked.
"Yeah they are, and just around my size too." Souji answered as he putting the clothes on.
"That's good to hear." Muginami said.
Muginami's eyes then narrow her eyes, before she slightly opens the curtain carefully so that Souji won't see her. She then saw that he putting on the shirt, and soon saw Souji's Rider Belt hanging on the side wall.
As Souji was putting the last piece of clothing which was a red vest, Muginami quickly reach out to his Belt to steal it…
They soon heard explosions and screaming outside which made them blink before Muginami quickly pulls her arm out while Souji turns around and grabs onto his Rider Belt and puts it on, as he quickly got out of the dressing room.
Souji was now wearing the outfit Muginami pick out for him, it consists with a white long sleeve shirt with a red vest, with black jeans and matching boots.
Souji soon runs out of the store and Muginami quickly follows behind, and when they get outside they soon saw people running away while screaming.
Souji soon hear what they were screaming…
"Monster!"
"Monster?" Souji parroted before he figures out what they were saying.
"Monster?" Muginami said before she soon saw Souji running off to where those monsters might be.
"Souji? Hey wait for me!" Muginami calls out as she follows behind him.
The three artificial black Worms are in the top floor of the mall in the food court area, causing chaos and destruction around the area. One black Worm smashes a table to pieces, one throws tables and chairs out of its way as it was walking forward, while the third and last was looking around until it heard crying nearby.
That Worm soon turns to the crying and saw two children a boy and girl crying as they tried to hide from the black Worms. But they soon heard the Worm approaching them which made they cease their crying hoping that the Worm won't find them, but was futile as the Worm jumps in front of them which made the two of them scream in terror.
The black Worm was about to attack the two kids, until Souji jumps at the Worm landing a kick on it making it stumble away from the kids while saving them just in time. Souji lands in front of them before he turns to them.
"You two okay?" Souji asked and the two of them nodded as they thanked him.
Muginami soon arrived before Souji stands up and faced the Worms as they run side by side to each other, and Souji then walks to the three black Worms.
"Muginami, takes those two somewhere safe. I handle this." Souji told her.
Muginami nodded before she runs to the kids and helps them stand up.
"Come on, this way." Muginami said before they run away together.
As Souji stops in front of the Worms as they were growling at him, Kabuto Zecter flies to his side and saw the black Worms and notice something was odd about these ones.
"Souji, I think something's wrong with these Worms. They seem different from the others." Kabuto Zecter told him.
"Does that even matter?" Souji asked before he grabs onto Kabuto Zecter. "Right now the enemies in front of me. And they're causing chaos, and need to be stop."
"Alright, then let's do this!" Kabuto Zecter said, and Souji nodded in agreement.
"Henshin!" Souji shouted before he inserted Kabuto Zecter onto his Belt.
HENSHIN
Souji soon transformed into Kabuto and soon brought out his Kunai Gun in Axe Mode and soon he and the black Worms charged at each other and engage in combat.
Kabuto slashes one black Worm on its chest, and soon saw one of the other ones attack at him which he manage to block in time using his forearm and soon slashes the Worm away with his Axe. Kabuto saw the third one charging at him, and when it was closed Kabuto grabs onto the Worm and soon falls on his back as he throws the Worm over him.
Kabuto then stands back up and soon saw the three black Salis Worms surrounding him. Kabuto was on guard awaiting for their next move until he saw the Drake Zecter slashing on the three Salis Worms, and Kabuto watch the Drake Zecter flies to Mirai and Lan who were standing nearby.
"Hoshino? Lan? What are you doing here?" Kabuto asked.
"Don't bother asking me. She's the one who dragged me here." Mirai said before she brought out the Drake Grip and soon walks to Kabuto's side. "Just so we're clear I'm not here to help you. I'm only here to take care of these bugs."
"Well either way, thanks." Kabuto said, which made Mirai huffed before she raised the Drake Grip.
"Drake!" Mirai calls out to her Zecter.
"You got it!" Drake Zecter said before he flies and inserted himself into the Grip.
"Henshin!" Mirai said.
HENSHIN
Mirai soon transformed into Drake, and soon the two Riders charged at the three black Salis Worms.
Drake fires upon the Worms forcing them to stumble away from each other, and soon Drake and Kabuto engage in close quarters combat against them with Drake fighting against one and Kabuto fights against the other two.
"Souji…" Lan said before she saw Muginami now returning after finding those kids' parents. "Muginami…" She said with a bit of suspicion in her voice, while Muginami watches the Riders battle.
Drake dodges two attacks from the black Salis Worms in front of her, and blocks the last one with her forearm and fires upon the Worm using her gun, making the Worm to stumble back before Drake kicks it on the chest sending it to the floor, and when the Salis Worm was about to stand back up Drake fires upon the Worm sending it rolling on the ground.
Kabuto slashes on one of the Salis Worm's chest followed with a downward slash sending the Worm rolling on the ground. Kabuto soon saw the other Salis Worm charging at and he soon changes to his Kunai Gun's Gun Mode and fires upon the black Worm making it stop running and Kabuto charges at the as he kept on firing and when he was closed enough he punches the Salis Worm on the chest sending it flying before it crashed on wall before it fallen on the floor.
Kabuto soon saw the other black Salis Worm attacking him with its arm and Kabuto manage to parried its punch in time and soon pointed his Gun on the Worm's abdomen area and fires upon the Worm which forced the Worm to stumble back. Kabuto then changes to his weapon's Axe Mode and slashes on the Salis Worm two times and did a upward slash sending the Worm rolling on the floor.
As that one black Salis Worm stands back up the other two walks to its sides standing side by side. Then their eyes started to light up and started to analyzing and memorizing Kabuto's and Drake's fighting style after fighting against the two of them.
Kabuto and Drake wonders why they were just standing there.
"What's going on Kabuto Zecter?" Kabuto asked his Zecter.
"I'm not sure myself." Kabuto Zecter told him.
Soon the black Salis Worms had finished their analyzing the two Riders, they soon spoke to each other.
"Analysis complete."
"Starting phase 2."
"Commencing molting."
The three black Salis Worms enters their molting stage, Kabuto and Drake were about to finished them before they can finished molting but was too late as they instantly finished molting leaving new forms.
The three black Worms maintained their black and white color, but each of them were in a different form.
One had the head of a yellow jacket with two stingers as arms with long grey needles and has two insect like legs and wears a tailcoat around its waist and has insect wings on its. This is the Vulgaris Worm.
One had a head similar to that of a spider and had a female body, with spider legs on its shoulders and has long claws on the tips of its fingers, and had a grey symbol of a hourglass on the front of its waist. This is the Latrodectus Worm.
The last one is base out of a beetle, the head has the horns of a stag beetle with the mouth of a human, the Worm also has bulky armor and has blades on the sides of its forearms. This is the Stag Worm.
Kabuto and Drake aimed their guns at the three black Worms and fired at them which they easily dodge by moving in Clock Up speed and soon attacks the two Riders a few times using Clock Up before one attack on each of them sends Kabuto and Drake rolling on the ground.
"Looks like we need to even the odds." Drake said as she and Kabuto stands back up.
"Agreed." Kabuto nodded before he and Drake flicks on their Zecters.
"Cast Off!" Kabuto and Drake shouted before they pull on their Zecters.
CAST OFF
Kabuto and Drake soon changed into their respective Rider Forms as their Masked Form armor pieces jumped out.
CHANGE DRAGONFLY
CHANGE BEETLE
"Clock Up!" Kabuto and Drake shouted before they pressed on Clock Up buttons on their belts.
CLOCK UP
Kabuto and Drake soon move in Clock Up clashing against the three black Worms as blurs. As she was watching Muginami can't help but be amazed by this.
(In Clock Up Dimension)
Kabuto is seen dodging the attacks from the Vulgaris Worm, and was going to block one attack from one of the Worm's stinger but the Vulgaris Worm pulls back his attack and attacks with its other arm landing a hit on Kabuto's chest which sends him stumbling back.
"What the…?" Kabuto wonders why the Vulgaris Worm just did that, but soon shook the thought out as he pulls out his Kunai Gun in Kunai Mode.
Kabuto soon charges at the Vulgaris Worm and attacks with his Kunai but the Worm easily predicted and parried Kabuto attacks, before it blocks one slashed against his Kunai and Kabuto kicks at the Worm but the Vulgaris Worm blocks it, which surprised Kabuto before the Worm slashed on his chest sending him to the floor.
Drake and the Latrodectus Worm were running sideways as their were facing each other, Drake fires at the Worm using her gun but the Latrodectus Worm shoots her shots down firing venom bullets from its mouth.
Drake was slightly surprised by that but shook it off as she jumps at the Latrodectus Worm flying at it in a flying sidekick position but the Worm easily dodges her kick and kicks at Drake sending her rolling on the ground.
Just as Drake manage to sit back up on one knee she soon saw the Stag Beetle Worm slamming its fists at her. Drake manage to dodge the Worm's attack in time as she shoulders roll out of its way, and when she stops rolling Drake soon got back on her feet fires at the Stag Beetle Worm, but the Worm easily deflected her shots using the blades on its arms, and soon the Stag Beetle Worm charges at Drake as it kept on deflecting her shots.
Drake cease her firing as the Stag Beetle Worm got closer and was going to punch at her, Drake manage to dodge its attack in time but was slightly grazed by the Worm's arm blades. Drake then kicks at the Stag Beetle Worm but the Worm easily catches her kick in time, before the Worm throws her up in the air and slashed on her using its arm blades, sending Drake flying before she fallen beside Kabuto as he got back up on one knee.
CLOCK OVER
Kabuto, Drake, and the three black Worms exited Clock Up and Muginami and Lan were surprised to see Kabuto and Drake on the floor.
"Souji! Hoshino!" Lan said as she wanted to run to help them.
"Just stay back Lan!" Kabuto told her, before he and Drake stands back up.
"What's going on here? It's almost like they know our moves before we do them." Drake said.
"Yeah I notice that too. These three are definitely not ordinary Worms." Kabuto said.
The Stag Beetle Worm steps in front of the other two black Worms, and soon begins to channel energy and electricity on its arm blades, and soon fires a double energy slashed at the two Riders.
Kabuto and Drake manage to dodge it in time as they roll out of its way, but they soon saw that it was now heading towards Lan.
"Lan!" Kabuto said before he runs to her.
"Oh no!" Drake said before she runs to her as well.
Kabuto and Drake weren't going to make it in time as the energy slash was getting closer to her, and Lan isn't able to dodge it in time…
"Look out!" Muginami shouted as she manage to pushed Lan out of the way, and it missed her as well but made a small explosion when it hit the floor, and the shakewave was strong enough to send Muginami flying at and smashed through a window sending her outside and falling to the ground below.
"Muginami!" Kabuto shouted before he jumps through that window to follow Muginami to save.
"Souji, no!" Lan said before Drake grabs onto her shoulders.
"Come on, we need to get you out of here!" Drake said before she and Lan retreat from the area and from the black Worms.
Muginami soon opened her eyes and found herself falling to the ground, she then braced herself as she closed her eyes for her impending fall, until she felt someone grabbing onto her hand.
Muginami soon looks and saw that was Kabuto.
"Souji?!" Muginami said before Kabuto grabs onto her and moves Muginami in front using himself as a cushion to protect.
"Don't worry I get you!" Kabuto said.
"Souji! Quick pull my horn back to changed into Masked Form!" Kabuto Zecter told him.
Kabuto quickly pulls his Zecter's horn back to its original position.
PUT ON
Kabuto soon changed into his Masked Form, before his back crashed on the ground below protecting Muginami.
Muginami had her eyes closed before she opened them as she notices that Kabuto had let go of her as his arms fallen to the ground.
"Souji?" Muginami said but Kabuto wasn't responding, which made Muginami a little worried before she shook his shoulders. "Souji? Souji, answer me please!"
"Calm down, Muginami." Kabuto Zecter told her before she flies out of Kabuto's Rider Belt changing Kabuto back into Souji who was unconscious, and Kabuto Zecter flies in front Souji. "He's fine, the fall just knocked him out but his armor given him protection from the worst of it."
"That's a relief…" Muginami sighs in relief.
"But in any case, can you stay with him for now? I'm going to look for Hoshino and Lan." Kabuto Zecter told her.
"Yes of course I will." Muginami nodded.
"Alright, keep him safe." Kabuto Zecter said before he flies off to search for Lan and Mirai.
After Kabuto Zecter was now gone, Muginami turns back to Souji and notice something about him as she gotten a closer look of his face.
'Now that I think about it, Souji looks a little cute when he's sleeping.' Muginami thought before realizes something and set her eyes on Souji's Rider Belt. Muginami looks around and saw that there was no one around in the area before she turns back to Souji. 'Souji's unconscious, and there's no one around to see me taking his belt…'
One of the reasons she stayed and gotten closer to Souji and the others were to steal their Kamen Rider technology, but for some reason she felt somewhat hesitant to do that, but she hardens her resolve and reach to Souji's Rider Belt…
Kabuto Zecter had soon found Mirai and Lan, and soon guides them back to where Souji and Muginami is, as they soon arrived in the area.
Lan and Mirai looks around until Lan found Souji still lying on the ground.
"There he is!" Lan said which gotten Mirai's attention before Lan runs to him and she and Kabuto Zecter soon follows behind her.
Lan knelt down to Souji and placed her hands on his chest and Mirai and Kabuto Zecter was looking above him.
"Souji! Please say something!" Lan said as she shook on Souji's chest. Souji groan as he opens his eyes.
"Something…" Souji mutters before he sits back up.
"Are you alright? Do you have any bruises or broken bones?" Lan asked in worried.
"I'm fine Lan, don't worry." Souji assured her.
Mirai and Kabuto Zecter soon realized and saw that Muginami wasn't in the area.
"Hey where's that Muginami girl?" Mirai asked.
"What about her?" Souji asked.
"I left her with you after I gone to look for these two." Kabuto Zecter told him.
"If that's the case, then where is she?" Souji asked before he stands up and he soon notice something missing around his waist which made him looks down and saw that something was indeed missing and it was something important. "I don't think Muginami's the only one missing."
This gotten his friends' attention as they turned to him.
"What do you mean?" Mirai asked.
"My Belt, it's gone." Souji said before he showed that his Rider Belt was missing, which had surprised his friends' and Lan soon had a realization and suspicion who took his Belt.
'Wait a minute don't tell she took it?' Lan thought.
(Meanwhile)
Muginami is seen running away from where Souji and the others were before she runs and stops inside of an alleyway to take a minute to catch her breath. Muginami then looks at Souji's Rider Belt in her hands.
'I did it...I got the Belt...but why do I feel so guilty about it…?' Muginami thought in wonder, her first intention after making contact with Souji was originally to steal his belt, however after she did that she started to feel guilty about it now.
Muginami then remembers the good memories she has with Souji, Madoka, and with some of the others, and thought of them hating her for stealing from Souji and lying to them, had sadden her even more.
Muginami hugs the Rider Belt closely as she was feeling like she was going to cry...until someone grabs onto her shoulder and soon whispers at her ear.
"Hey there," Muginami turns and saw that it was Issei standing beside her, and suddenly he placed a mouthpiece device on her mouth which was filled with gas as it was spraying into her mouth, Muginami was going to break free but was too late as the effects of the gas cause her to lose conscious as she fallen asleep in Issei's arms as he catches her and Souji's Rider Belt had fallen to the ground. "Sweet dreams."
(Back with Souji and the others)
After Souji regained most of his strength back, he contacted Haruka through Kabuto Zecter telling her of what happened, and that his Belt was missing and that someone might have stolen it.
"I see, this is indeed curious. And not to mention that your Belt was stolen as well." Haruka said through Kabuto Zecter.
"Yeah, I'm sorry about Haruka-san." Souji said.
"Don't worry about it, I suppose these kinds of things are bound to happen. Also there's no need to worry about finding your Belt." Haruka said which gotten Souji's and the others' attention.
"What do you mean?" Lan asked.
"I'd figure something like this would happened, so I've built a GPS tracker on each Rider transformation device, and each Zecter has the ability to track it." Haruka told them.
"Really?" Mirai blink in surprised before she brought out and looks at her Drake Grip.
"Anyway I'll leave finding the Rider Belt in your hands, right now I need to do something real quick." Haruka said before she hangs up.
"Okay, now we need to focus on finding my Belt. Kabuto Zecter can you traced it signal?" Souji requested.
"Just leave it to me!" Kabuto Zecter nodded before he started to scan for Souji's Rider Belt.
While Kabuto Zecter was searching for Souji's Belt, the others took this time to think about those black Worms they have encountered and who the culprit that had stolen Souji's Belt.
"Alright, did anyone else notice that there was something off with those Worms?" Drake Zecter asked.
"Yeah, the way they fought and move, it was almost like they can predict our moves before we make them." Mirai concluded.
"I notice that too." Souji said before he realized something. "Wait a minute, when they were fighting against us in their Salis forms what if they were studying us?"
"Well that is possible. The Worms do have intelligence, but then again they don't have that kind of ability before." Drake Zecter said.
"We'll just have to worry about later, after we beat them." Souji said and the others nodded in agreement. "Now the better question is who stolen my Belt, and where did Muginami go to?"
Hearing that made Lan bit her lip and placed her hand over her chest as she looks down, but she soon looks up and gets Souji's and Mirai's attention.
"Lan what's wrong?" Souji asked.
"I-I think it was…" Lan said but before she could finished Kabuto Zecter flies to them before he calls out.
"I found the signal!" Kabuto Zecter told them which gotten their attention.
"You did?" Souji asked in relief.
"Yeah, and even better it's not that far from here." Kabuto Zecter told him.
"Alright, then let's get going. Lead the way Kabuto Zecter." Souji told his Zecter partner.
Souji, and Mirai soon got on their respective bikes while Lan sits behind Souji before they soon drive down the road following Kabuto Zecter who was ahead of them, leading them to where Souji's Rider Belt.
"So Lan, what were you going to say?" Souji asked.
"It...it's not important right now." Lan answered.
"Okay...if you think so." Souji said.
Lan soon begins to wonder why she won't say anything on who stolen Souji's Belt.
Muginami who was still unconscious slowly started to wake up, before her eyes shot opened and saw that her hands were bound by a rope that was tied behind a metal beam. She then looks around and saw that she was in abandoned warehouse by the docks.
"Well looks who's awake." Muginami looks and saw Issei nearby to her holding Souji's Rider Belt in his hand. "I was beginning to wonder if you were going to wake up."
Muginami then saw the three black Worms that Souji and Mirai fought earlier and saw that they were kneeling to him.
'It's those three again…' Muginami thought before she looks at Issei again. 'Could he be their leader?'
They soon heard the roar of motorcycle engines approaching the area which gotten their attention.
"Master," One of the black Worms said.
"Yeah I know." Issei said.
They soon saw Souji and Mirai stopping in front of the warehouse, and they and Lan runs inside.
"Everyone?!" Muginami said in surprised to see them here, and Souji and the others saw her.
"Muginami!" Souji said in worried.
They soon heard Issei clapping his hands which gotten Souji's and the others' attention as they turned to him.
"About time you've showed up, I was beginning to think that you're weren't going to show." Issei said.
Souji soon saw his Rider Belt in Issei's hands.
"You? You were the one who took my Belt weren't you?!" Souji exclaimed, which surprised Lan and even Muginami, and gotten Issei's attention before he smirks when he decided to play along.
"And what would you do if I say yes?" Issei asked.
"Obaa-chan said this...there's no reason to answer to a shameless thief." Souji said before he brought out his Kunai Axe in Kunai mode. "And I'll be taking that back along with Muginami."
Muginami blinks in surprised when he said that.
"Then by all means come take it." Issei said before he snaps his fingers, and soon the three black Worms walks in front of them and their master.
"Guess he must be the leader." Mirai concluded before she brought out Drake Grip.
"All the more reason to take him out." Souji said.
"For once we're in an agreement. Drake Zecter!" Mirai calls out and Drake Zecter flies around her and inserted himself into the Grip. "Henshin!"
HENSHIN
Mirai transformed into Drake, and Drake soon pulls on her Zecter's tail.
"Cast Off!" Drake shouted as she changed into her Rider Form.
CAST OFF
CHANGE DRAGONFLY
Drake soon charges at the black Worms as she begins firing at them who dodged her shots with ease. Souji then turns to Lan.
"Lan, you help Muginami we'll handle this." Souji told her.
"What but Souji…?" Lan said before Souji charges at Issei.
As Souji was getting closer to Issei the Stag Beetle Worm soon gets in his way and punches at Souji. Souji was able to dodge his punch barely in time, and slashed on the Worm's chest, but it didn't even make it flinch.
Then the Stag Beetle Worm punches on Souji's stomach and slams its other fist on his back sending him to the ground, and soon kicks on him sending Souji rolling on the ground.
"Souji!" Muginami shouted in worry before she saw Lan running up to her and soon begins to untie the rope around her waists. "Lan what are you…?"
"Just be quiet, and let me focus on this!" Lan exclaimed.
Souji slightly growled in pain as blood begins to run through his nose and from the side of his mouth, before he saw the Stag Beetle running at him going to stomps its foot at him and Souji was able to dodge its attack in time by rolling out of its way.
Souji then switches to his weapon's Axe Mode as he stands back up and slashed on the Stag Beetle Worm's chest which made it to slightly stumble back but soon stops and grabs onto Souji's neck and throws him to the other side of the building.
Drake soon saw Souji having trouble as she dodging the other two Worms' attacks.
"Tendou!" Drake shouted as she was going to run to Souji to help him, but the Vulgaris Worm got in her way and stabs her with one its stingers which she manage to dodge in time by side stepping, and soon saw the Vulgaris Worm charging at her to slashed her using its claws and Drake dodge it by jumping back. "Damn it...I won't get anywhere like this…!"
Lan soon manages to untie the rope on Muginami.
"There got it!" Lan said.
"Thanks, Lan." Muginami said which surprised Lan before she looks away.
"Don't mention it." Lan said.
Muginami soon saw Issei now leaving the building by the back side of the warehouse.
"Oh no you don't you're not getting away!" Muginami said before she stands up and chased after Issei.
"What...Muginami wait!" Lan said before she follows behind her.
Issei was now outside of the warehouse as he continues to walk away and continues to look at the Rider Belt in his hand.
"Stop right there!" Issei stops walking and turns around to see that Muginami was now behind him.
"Oh it's you. What do you want?" Issei asked.
"You should already know that." Muginami stated.
Indeed he does know before he looks back at Souji's Rider Belt, and wonders on what he should do, he can easily outrun Muginami while taking the Belt with him but than again that wouldn't be very entertaining that way before he soon an anmusing idea as he smirks.
"Alright here you go." Issei said before he throws the Rider Belt back to Muginami, which surprises before she catches the Belt.
"But why would you…?" Muginami asked.
"Well in truth that thing isn't really that important to me. So I'll let you have you. But what would you do now?" Issei asked which made Muginami blink in confusion while Lan was overhearing their conversation in hiding. "Just to let you know, I already know that your the chosen pilot of one of the Voxs."
This surprised both Lan and Muginami that he knows that.
"Listen I mostly don't care who you are or what you're doing here, but I do know the reason why you've made contact with Kabuto. It was to steal that Belt of his, wasn't it?" Issei asked, which made Muginami looks down in shame. "There's no reason to hide it, what you did had only proven my suspicion. So I'm giving the Belt back to you so that you'll make your choice. Would you run away with Belt and let him die? Or would you give it back to him, but that would put some suspicion on you."
Muginami didn't answer as she continues to look down to the ground in wondering. This made Issei chuckles in amusement.
"Well the choice is yours now. So I'll leave it to you to decide. Oh and before I go, here." Issei said before he brought out a blue rose and throws at Muginami who catches it. "A little something to remember me by. I hope that you keep it."
Muginami then looks back at Issei but he was now gone. She then looks back at the Rider Belt in her hand, while Lan was still spying on her wondering what she'll do next.
(Back with Souji and Drake)
The Stag Beetle Worm punches on Souji's head sending rolling on the ground, while Drake was dodging the attacks from the other two black Worms.
The Stag Beetle Worm then grabs onto Souji on his neck and lifts him up, and was going to slashed him with one of its arm blades.
"Souji!" Kabuto Zecter said in worry before he flies to his partner's defense as he begin slashing on the Stag Beetle Worm forcing it to let go of Souji.
The Stag Worm then swats at the Zecter but Kabuto Zecter dodges its attacks as he continues to slashed on the Worm.
"Haha! You can't touch this!" Kabuto Zecter mocked the Worm which angered it before it finally manage to land a hit on the Zecter sending him to the ground.
"Kabuto Zecter…!" Souji mutters as he slowly stands back up.
"Souji!" Souji looks and saw Muginami with his Rider Belt in hand entering the building.
"Muginami?" Souji said in surprised.
Muginami then looks at the Rider Belt before she turns to Souji.
"Here!" Muginami shouted before she throws the Belt to Souji who catches, Souji smirks as he looks it and turns back to Muginami.
"Thanks!" Souji said as he got back on his feet and puts on his Belt. "Koi, Kabuto Zecter!"
"You got it!" Kabuto Zecter shouted before he flies to Souji who catches him.
"Henshin!" Souji shouted as he inserted Kabuto Zecter into his Belt.
HENSHIN
Souji transformed into Kabuto.
"Cast Off!" Kabuto said before he fully flips on Kabuto Zecter's horn.
CAST OFF
CHANGE BEETLE
Kabuto changes into his Rider Form and soon drew out his Kunai Gun in Kunai Mode and charges at the Stag Beetle Worm before the two entered combat.
As Muginami was watching the Riders battle against the black Worms, Lan soon arrives as well while still looking at Muginami with a surprised look on her face that she given Kabuto his belt back.
Kabuto and the Stag Beetle Worm clashed their blades against each other a few times, until the Worm manage to block and lock his Kunai using one of its arm blades and slashed Kabuto on the chest sending him rolling on the ground.
Drake continues to fire at the the two black Worms she was fighting but the Latrodectus Worm shoot her shots down by using acid bullets, and soon the Vulgaris Worm flies at Drake and double stabs her on the chest sending flying before she lands on the ground beside Kabuto as he got back on one knee and foot.
"Damn it...they're still able to predict our moves…" Drake said in frustration as she sits back up.
"There must be some way to break past that…" Drake Zecter said.
Kabuto thinks about before he had a idea before he stands up.
"Obaa-chan once said this...you can't always be a one trick pony...sometimes you need adapt and use new moves." Kabuto said, and Drake soon understands what he means before she stands back up.
"I see what you're saying." Drake said.
Kabuto and Drake soon charges at the black Worms.
"Clock Up!" Kabuto and Drake said before they pressed the Clock Up buttons on their belts.
CLOCK UP
Kabuto, Drake and the black Worms charged at each other using their Clock Up speed.
(In Clock Up dimension)
As Kabuto was charging at the Stag Beetle Worm it was ready as it predicted that he was going jump and kick at him, but was wrong as Kabuto changes to his weapon's Gun mode and fire upon the Worm landing a few hits, this had surprised the Worm before it saw Kabuto coming closer at him, the Stag Beetle Worm predicted that he was going to kick him with his right leg but was wrong once again when Kabuto throws in a left punch landing a solid hit on its face and lands an uppercut on its chin making the Worm to stumble back.
"Just as I figure, you're only maybe predict our usually fighting styles but you can't predict any alterations." Kabuto said before he switches his Gun's Axe mode before he charges and lands a slashed on the Worm's chest.
As Drake was charging at the two other Worms she aims her gun which made the Latrodectus Worm moves in front of the Vulgaris Worm ready to shoot down her bullets, but Drake jumps at the Latrodectus Worm and lands a kick on the Worm's chest, this slight surprised the Vulgaris Worm before Drake punches on it using her free hand before the Worm blocks her punch and was going to attack using its other stinger but Drake aims her gun on the Worm's chest and begins firing on it in pinpoint range making the Vulgaris Worm to stumble back.
Kabuto lands an strong slash on the Stag Beetle Worm's sending it to the ground while Drake kicks on the Latrodectus Worm and fires on the Vulgaris Worm sending right by the Stag Beetle as it stands back up.
CLOCK OVER
The two Riders, and the black Worms all exited Clock Up. Kabuto and Drake then walks to each others' sides as they continue to face the Worms.
"Now it's time to finished you." Kabuto said before he turns to Drake. "You up for a combine attack?"
"Only for this one time." Drake told him before she folded Drake Zecter's wings, while Kabuto walks a few steps in front of her.
Kabuto then pulled on his Zecter's horn, and pressed the button on it.
1
2
3
"Rider Kick!" Kabuto said before he pulls his Zecter's horn back.
RIDER KICK
"Rider Shooting!" Drake shouted before she pulls on her Zecter's tail.
RIDER SHOOTING
Energy travels to Kabuto's foot and energy travels to Drake's gun, and Drake fires her Rider Shooting first firing it behind Kabuto which surprised Lan and Muginami, and Kabuto spins around and kicks on Drake's Shooting attack from back adding his own power and force into the attack, sending it faster at the blacks Worms destroying them as their combine attack hits them.
Issei was watching the battle through his handheld device through cameras he had placed in the warehouse, and he was slightly disappointed on Muginami's choice of returning Souji his Rider Belt.
"Oh well, I did say it was her choice on what to do with the Belt. No use complaining about it now." He said before he puts the device away and walks into the shadows.
(Back with Souji and the others)
After the battle, Souji and the others are now heading back to Hiroshi's restaurant, with Mirai and Muginami walking in front of Souji and Lan as they were talking with each other.
"Souji…" Lan whispers to him which gotten Souji's attention.
"What is it, Lan?" Souji asked.
"It's about who stole your Belt...and I think it was…" Lan said before Souji interrupted her.
"You think it was Muginami that stolen it, right?" Souji asked which surprised Lan.
"How did you…?" Lan asked.
"Come on, Lan. I mean it was pretty obvious considering that Muginami disappeared before I woke up. I'm not a idiot." Souji told her. "But I'm not going to say anything, not yet at least."
"But why would you do that?" Lan asked.
"I've told you before, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover." Souji said. "I'm not sure how Muginami got my Belt back from that guy, but she would've used that chance to run away with it, but she didn't and instead she gave it back to me."
"I suppose that's true...but even so…" Lan said.
"Look Lan, I'm not going to be hostile towards Muginami for stealing my Belt. Until we learn more about her and her situation then I'll decide whether or not she an enemy." Souji told her.
"A-Alright fine...you win…" Lan said, which made Souji smirks before he pats her on the back.
(Meanwhile)
Haruka in her lab was observing videos of Kabuto's and Drake's battle against the black Worms and was very curious about these ones.
"Most curious...something is indeed different from these Worms compared to the others." Haruka said before he pulls out a photo of Issei on her computer screen. "Not to mention there's this man, just who is he?"
All of this have given Haruka more questions than answers.
To Be Continued…The Arrival of Villagiulio
And there you have it I hope you like it. Review to tell me what you think of the story.
