AN: Hey guys, I know that it's been a while now. Originally, I wanted to get this chapter out, but…my house burned down. My family and I managed to get out in one piece, but I lost almost everything else including my document archive so I had to re-write this from scratch. What matters is that I finally got this chapter done, so now…Showtime!

Disclaimer: I do not own anything here, save for the OCs.

Chapter 15: The Fifth Stop, Ryuki

Dark Decade was watching Lelouch's first transformation as Ryuki from afar as Shadow Moon appeared behind her. The Mirror World would usually attempt to disintegrate people outside of Rider armors due to the corrosive atmosphere, but the Dark Riders' coat was made of sturdy stuff.

"Are you sure you want to do nothing about this world?" Shadow Moon asked with a hint of surprise in his voice. He was a bit shocked when his master decided not to have much involvement with Ryuki's world considering the multiple run-ins she's had with her counterpart in all the worlds

"I'm sure. This world revolves around most of the Riders' own self-interest. They'll sabotage themselves for it and that's more than enough for me. I'll still watch from afar and take action when it is necessary, but on the whole, this is a world that's doing my own work. I can live with a small break."

She then saw the new Ryuki charge at his enemy, which appeared to be a golden Rider.

"Well Decade, I wonder how you'll fare with a Ryuki that will actually try to kill you."

(Play Hello, World! By Bump Of Chicken)

[Tobira hirakeba nejireta hiru no yoru. Kinou dou yatte kaetta karada dake ga tashika. Ohayo korekara mata maigo no tsuduzki. Minareta shiranai keshiki no naka de.] As the music starts up, the city of Vale in Faiz's world shines brightly in the night before time transitions to sunrise, changing the city to that of Tokyo-3 in W's world. Finally, the sunrise moves to full-on day time, changing the city one last time to Area 11 of Ryuki's world.

The song continues as the camera zooms out on a picture collection of different cities and worlds, until it reveals a collage making up a road.

[Mou damette omotte kara wari to nadaka yareteiru. Shi ni kiranai kurai ni joubu nanka chotto hazukashii.] The scene changes to the city's people, who are just as changing with the setting. One of the only constants was Nihlus, who seemed to be minding his own business while Chelsea was behind him

[Yaru beki kotow a wasurete ite mo wakaru. Sou shinai to totemo kurushii kara.] The scene changes to Nihlus and his friends having some fun, taking a picture of silly faces. The next scene shows a small slideshow of poor pictures with Nihlus waking up from bed as he checked his eyes. Another slideshow revealed Nihlus and his friends having lunch, with the former making a small accident of getting ketchup all over his face from a burger. Yugi offered him a napkin while the girls seemed ready to joke about it at his expense. Back to the city, an unhooded Dark Decade walks behind Nihlus in the opposite direction with the frame cutting off at her neck, only showing the majority of her body's backside and her long black hair.

[Kao wo agete kuroi me no hito. Kimi ga mita kara hikari wa umareta.] The scene then changes to a pedestrian scramble moving fast and changing like the city, occasionally showing Riders of their respective cities. But in the center, the only constant was Chelsea smiling before the background changed to the flower place where she was supposed to die. She smiled as the daylight shone before changing to night, where she was replaced by Decade whose green eyes were shining from having been transformed.

[Eranda iro de nutta sekai ni kakomarete. Erabenai kizu no imi wa doko darou.] The scene changes to Nihlus in the center of the background where the Rider War was supposed to take place. Around him was the good Kamen Riders showing off their abilities to fend off against the Dark Riders. Nihlus seemed blown away, stunned, and baffled by all this action. He then seemed resolute and composed as the setting changed to an unhooded Dark Decade in front of a ruined mansion, Fuu facing her inner demon Nanabi, and to Chelsea facing that flower field again. Then the background changed to a colorful stage with Nihlus being in the center of it all.

[Gojibun dake ga hiiroo sekai no mannaka de. Owaru made dezuppari sutteji no ue.] The scene changes to Shadow Moon smiling under his hood as the rest of the Dark Riders appear around him. The scene then transitions to Dark Decade, in her Rider armor, walking through a ruined city with a satisfied smile underneath her helmet. The scene then switches back to that lively stage with Yugi, as Kuuga, taking a bow with the other Riders, some of the hooded Dark Riders doing the same, then Chelsea and Fuu, a hooded Dark Decade just stared, and finally Nihlus taking center but the stage with the lights out and show over with only a spotlight shining down on him.

[Dou shiyoi karappo no furi mo dekinai.] Nihlus was holding the DecaDriver and Decade card in his hands before a cherry blossom falls and flies past him, making him grip his Rider Gear harder.

[Hello doumo boku wa koko. Hello doumo boku wa koko.] Nihlus is back in the ruined battleground alone, but seems steadfast, vigilant, and heroic, not afraid of anything. He was soon replaced with the title of the fic.

As the song ends, the final scene is in a room with a bright background before the camera zooms past all the Riders, with the last one being Nihlus, who is about to transform into Decade.

(With Nihlus and the others)

"W-What just happened?" Chelsea asked as Nihlus just glared at Yugi for the moving them to another world so suddenly.

"N-No one told me that she was coming!" Yugi defended himself as the auburn-haired girl noticed a change in scenery from the window.

"What the...?" Chelsea then proceeded to walk to the front door with Nihlus right behind her, trying to get her to stop so he can give her an explanation.

Chelsea ignored him as she just opened the door, seeing the sight of a modern city. Obviously, the sight of such a place was enough to tell Chelsea that was she was not in any place that she knows.

"Uhh…" Nihlus nervously chuckled as he scratched the back of his head sheepishly.

After processing where she was, Chelsea looked at Nihlus with an expectant glare before her expression turned to one of surprise.

"Hey Nihlus, when did your clothes changed?" Chelsea asked, somewhat intrigued.

"Huh?" Nihlus looked down at himself, seeing that he was in a very familiar black school uniform. It took him a few minutes before he finally recognized the uniform from the anime show Code Geass. It was one of the first mature anime he's seen and one of his favorites. And since one of the figures on the mural was Dragredder from Kamen Rider Ryuki, then the Ryuki from this Riderverse has to be in Code Geass.

He felt something in his pocket and reached for it. The young man pulled out a folded piece of paper. He unfolded it and started reading the contents. It was an acceptance letter for Ashford Academy that stated the standard greeting and a starting date for tomorrow.

Nihlus placed away the letter before thinking about who could the Ryui of this world be.

'It has to be Suzaku…despite his flaws, he's the only one that I can think of that would fit the profile of an idealistic peacekeeper much like the Ryuki.' Nihlus thought before he felt Chelsea shaking his shoulder, snapping him out of his thoughts.

"Nihlus, you said you owe me an explanation…now." Chelsea said with a sense of urgency in her voice.

"R-Right." Nihlus said as he gestured her to follow him back inside the studio.

(With Dark Decade)

Dark Decade and Shadow Moon continued watching the battle until they felt a certain presence behind them. The two Dark Riders turned and saw Kanzaki, the mastermind behind this world's Rider War.

Shadow Moon was about to take out his rapier and transform before his master stopped him.

"I do not appreciate any outside parties accompanying my domain." Kanzaki said in a stoic voice.

"Oh, you have nothing to fear from my companion and I." Dark Decade assured in a friendly manner, while Kanzaki himself was very skeptical about this. Shadow Moon just remained on guard, seemingly ready to protect his master should any attack come for her.

"Is that so?"

"I know you have no reason to believe me, but I do have information on one who could drastically affect your Rider War. Consider it a gift of good faith." Dark Decade offered.

Kanzaki raised an eyebrow at her words. While he can't say he trusts her, he doesn't want to take a chance at anyone or anything interfering with his Rider War, especially when things are nearing its climax.

"Let's say that I believe you; who is this one that will interfere in my plans?" Kanzaki asked, causing Dark Decade to let out a chuckle. True to her word, she won't directly interfere with the events of this world. But that doesn't mean that she wasn't to be going making things easier for Nihlus. Like she said before, she needs him to grow.

"Well then, let me tell you about Nihlus Kryis; Kamen Rider Decade."

(With Nihlus and the others)

Nihlus and the others spent the last hour talking to Chelsea regarding that's been really going on with them since meeting her in Ghost's world. Everything from the Dark Riders' attack on Nihlus's world to now.

"And that pretty much brings us to now." Nihlus said, finally finishing the story in front of Chelsea.

"If we were back in my world, I probably would've assumed you were crazy."

"And now?"

Chelsea raised an eyebrow at the question.

"'And now?' I just found out that parallel worlds exist and my first sight is what you call a city that makes the Empire pale by comparison. I need to see more of what lies out there." Chelsea explained as this was a lot to take in. Plus, she was curious how this world and others would compare to the awful one she knew all her life. Better than the one she nearly died in if it wasn't for Nihlus.

"Are you saying you want a tour?" Nihlus asked with an unsure expression on his face. The world of Code Geass was plagued by racism thanks to the Britannian Empire. He then took a quick glance at everyone else. Obviously since he is an Ashford Academy student, he probably had forged identifications so local authority won't give him any trouble. Mr. Hitachi and Yugi would probably be the ones with the most trouble, while he wasn't sure where Chelsea and Fuu would fall under considering Japanese wasn't a nationality back in their respective worlds.

Soon enough, Nihlus was snapped out of his thoughts when Chelsea then teasingly hugged his arm in appreciation.

"Is that saying you want to volunteer~?" Chelsea asked, causing Nihlus to blush a bit.

"Wait, what?"

"Come on, don't you think it's a bit rude to leave me to figure things out for myself? Especially when it came to your partner of all people."

"I, uh…fine." Nihlus sighed. He was supposed to go to Ashford Academy today, but he couldn't leave someone new at this like Chelsea alone. He trusts the others to help her, just not sure how this world would react to their presence. He then looked at Chelsea's hands. "If you're gonna come with me outside, you need to wear some gloves."

"Gloves?" Chelsea lets go as she adopted a confused expression.

"Synthetic prosthetics are not much of a norm in modern societies like this one." Yugi stepped in, having seen a lot of sci-fi movies in his life. "We don't know if prosthetics like those are normal here, but better not to attract attention."

"Oh, I think I have a pair around here. Give me a few minutes." Mr. Hitachi said as he left while Chelsea looked at her prosthetics and tried exercising them. Luckily, they responded a bit faster as she was getting used to them.

She then sighed a bit in frustration at the fact that she may have to hide them, but at the same she was also glad as the prosthetics were a constant reminder of her failure. Within a few moments, Mr. Hitachi finally arrived with a pair of black leather gloves before offering them to Chelsea.

Chelsea stared at the pair before taking them and placing them on. She exercised movement once more, staring intently at where her prosthetics would be.

"How do they feel?" Nihlus asked, snapping Chelsea out of her thoughts.

"They feel good." She replied with a small smile, which Nihlus can tell was fake. Was there something on her mind? He decided not to press for information while Chelsea stared at her case. "What should we do about my stuff?"

Mr. Hitachi seemed to think on that matter.

"Sorry, but all the guest rooms are taken. The best I can do is take the spare bed setup I have in the basement and move it to Fuu's room for obvious reasons. That room is big enough to take care of two people. If that's fine with you, Fuu."

Fuu smiled as she enthusiastically nodded, excited at the prospect of having not only another female on the team, but also at the fact of having a roommate.

"Great, now with all that settled, how about you show us around the city?" Chelsea asked while Fuu stepped up.

"Oh, I'll join too! We need a better understanding of this world." Fuu added.

"Oh, same here-!" Yugi started, but was then cut off by Mr. Hitachi.

"Sorry Yugi, but I'm afraid I'm going to need your help moving the spare bed and Chelsea's belongings."

"Appreciated, Yugi." Chelsea added, causing the young man to sigh. She then turned back to Nihlus with an amused expression. "Guess that means you're stuck with the ladies. Aren't you a lucky boy today?"

"…" Nihlus was quiet as all he can do was blush in embarrassment at the tease. 'This is gonna take some getting used to. I'll get you back for it…'

The three soon left with Yugi and Mr. Hitachi going downstairs to get Chelsea's new bed. Unknown to them, Kanzaki was watching all of this from a nearby window as he rubbed his chin in deep thought in regards on how to handle this situation.

(With Nihlus and the girls)

Nihlus and the girls spend the next couple hours exploring the city of Area 11, formerly known as Japan. Luckily for Nihlus, none of the local authorities or social elite seem to bother any of them. Right now, they were around one of the more least populated shopping districts.

For Chelsea, she was taking note of what was going on around her, one of her old habits as an she has enjoyed the sights and window shopping, Chelsea has taken note of the Britannians talking about an Empire, strange disappearances, and blaming it on the "Eleven" people.

"Chelsea, is everything okay?" Fuu asked, noticing said girl's melancholic expression.

"H-Huh?" Chelsea was snapped out of her thoughts as she went back to her cheery persona. "Yeah, I was just thinking."

"What about?" Fuu replied.

For a second, Chelsea contemplated about telling her and Nihlus what was really bugging her. But she stopped herself as she didn't want to bring anyone down with such a pessimistic view.

"I was just thinking about…the fashion!" Chelsea made up as she looked at one of the displays. "I mean, just look at that. That outfit seemed so much more style than mine! If only my world can come up with something such as this."

Fuu chuckled as she scratched the back of her head as she looked at her own modernized outfit.

"Yeah, this isn't really something I'm used to much either at first." Fuu said as she remembered how her outfit was changed back when they first visited Yugi's world.

Unknown to the three, Kanzaki was not too far away from them before snapping his fingers.

SNAP!

As Nihlus was watching the girls talk, he then heard a loud ringing which made his eyes widened. He looked around frantically as he knew what that noise meant; a Mirror Monster from the Ryuki series was going to appear. Nihlus then saw something emerging from the glass behind Chelsea.

"Chelsea, look out!" Nihlus rushed at the auburn-haired girl and pushed her out of the way as a Buzzstinger Frost emerged from the glass and tackled him.

"Nihlus!" Chelsea called out as a Buzzstinger Wasp emerged next and attempted to strike at the girl with its sword.

Fuu quickly got in between the two and used her Hiden: Hiding in Scale Power Technique, blinding the monster and causing it slight pain. The kunoichi then kicked the monster back into the mirror while Nihlus finally managed to kick Frost off of him.

The white monster roared at the group before returning to the mirror. Nihlus stood up as he took out his Driver.

"You girls get out of here. I'll deal with this!" Nihlus said as they nodded and ran away. The black-haired teen took a deep breath as he placed on his Driver, opened it, and took out his card. "Henshin!"

"KAMEN RIDE: DECADE!"

Nihlus then transformed into Decade before approaching the mirror and gently placing his hand onto the surface. He could see light ripples across the surface almost as if he was touching water.

"Trippy…" Decade noted as he then dove into the mirror entirely. He found himself in the space between the real and Mirror World with an open pod-like motorcycle waiting for him; a Rideshooter. "I always wondered how one would drive."

Decade then got in before the pod closed and he started driving down the space before entering the Mirror World in front of the two monsters that attacked him and his friends. He got out of the Rideshooter before looking around.

'If I can hear that ring, it probably alerted the other Riders that are still participating. I have to finish this quick then.'

Decade then took out his sword and charged at the two monsters. He slashed at the two, causing the monsters to jump backwhile Decade transformed his sword into gun mode. He aimed at the Buzzstinger Wasp and immediately pulled the trigger, shooting the latter multiple times. The Buzzstinger Frost charged next before Decade barely dodged the attempts at a slash as he transformed his gun back to sword mode.

He then opened his Driver and placed a card in before closing it.

"ATTACK RIDE: SLASH!"

Decade's sword charged with energy as he slashed through the Buzzstinger Frost multiple times, causing the monster intense pain. Meanwhile the Buzzstinger Wasp recovered charged at Decade from behind, managing to get the cheap shot in.

"Ow!" Decade let out, stumbling a bit from the pain as he then blocked the next hit. "You want some too, huh! Bring it!"

As the three were continuing their fight, a new Rideshooter emerged from a nearby mirror. The pod soon opened, revealing a green Rider with a tech-based look. He calmly got out of the vehicle as he looked around before noticing the fight nearby.

"Another Rider?" Zolda wondered as he took note of Decade. While he shouldn't let a couple of Mirror Monsters get away since his own Monster hasn't had anything to eat in a while, Zolda was genuinely curious about Decade. "I should wait for His Highness to come just in case."

If this was anything like that case with the manmade Riders; the Alternative Zeroes, then it would be better to wait for backup. Meanwhile with Decade, he just kicked stabbed the red Buzzstinger before grabbing him and tossing the monster towards its white counterpart. The two monsters collided, leaving them pain-ridden on the floor.

"It's time that I end this." Decade said as he took out his finisher card while Zolda noticed another Rideshooter pull up. Zolda readied his gun just in case, but he let his guard down upon seeing the Rider when the pod opened.

"Your Highness." He greeted while Decade opened his belt and used his card.

"FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-DECADE!"

The monsters got up to see rings of holographic cards in front of them with Decade pointing his gun at them from the other end of the tunnel. Decade pulled the trigger and, with the help of the rings, fired a large energy blast at the monsters.

BOOM!

They went up in a fiery explosion, leaving behind two energy orbs. Decade knew that they were supposed to be food for the Contract Mirror Monsters that the Riders of this world uses. Decade honestly didn't know what to do with them since he doesn't have a Contract Monster. However…

ROAR!

Decade turned and saw a red dragon and a green mechanized bull-themed mech charged at him. They soon rushed past him and took the glowing orbs themselves, devouring them in delight.

"Wait, if those two are here, then…" Decade immediately turned around and saw Kamen Riders Ryuki and Zolda.

Decade was a bit confused since in the show, it was usually Ryuki and Knight who are partners, but he wasn't going to let that stop him from making first contact.

"You allowed our monsters to feed on that. A big mistake on your part." Zolda remarked as he pointed his gun at Decade.

Decade recognized that voice as Jeremiah Gottwald, a Britanian elitist but a loyal servant to the late Lady Marianne and her bloodline.

Zolda then looked at Ryuki.

"How should we deal with this?" Zolda asked as Ryuki stepped forward and scanned Decade, making the latter feel a bit uneasy.

"…I've already made the mistake of trusting someone that I barely knew and I will not let history repeat itself." Ryuki said as he then took out a card and placed it in his Visor, shocking Decade as he recognized the voice. It wasn't Suzaku underneath that armor, but Lelouch.

"STRIKE VENT!"

Ryuki soon received a gauntlet, resembling his Contract Monster's head, while Zolda opened his gun and placed a card inside before closing it.

"SHOOT VENT!"

Zolda soon received a massive missile launcher, which he wielded with both hands before aiming.

"W-Wait-!" Decade tried to reason with them, but it was too late. Decade and Zolda fired their weapons, forcing the magenta Rider to roll away just in time. Decade barely recovered as he then saw Ryuki charge at him with the red Rider utilizing a new card.

"SWORD VENT!"

Ryuki replaced his gauntlet with a scimitar as he attempted to slash Decade. Decade dodged the sword a couple of times before being hit with by a missile, courtesy of Zolda.

Decade was trying to recover from the blast, only to be met with multiple slashes from Ryuki. The magenta Rider flew from the attack into a wall and crashed onto the floor. Decade barely got up as he saw the two other Riders approach him. Seeing that talking wasn't going to go anywhere, he had no choice but to fight back. Seeing that he was outnumbered, he decided to borrow a move from his dark counterpart.

He took out a card, quickly opened his belt and used said card.

"ATTACK RIDE: ILLUSION!"

Decade focused as he then split into two before they took out 2 different cards and used them.

"KAMEN RIDE: GHOST/DOUBLE (W)!"

"LET'S GO! KAKUGO! G-G-GHOST! GO! GO! GO! GO!'

The copies soon transformed Ghost and W respectively, completely catching the other two Riders offguard.

D-Ghost tossed D-W his sword as he then summoned his own weapon.

"GAN GAN SABER!"

D-Ghost charged and engaged Ryuki in another sword fight as D-W ran towards Zolda. Zolda quickly fired at D-W, causing the latter to take cover behind a bench.

"If you're gonna change forms, at least use one that doesn't put you at such a disadvantage." Zolda said as he took another shot, causing D-W to roll out of the way as the bench exploded.

"Won't last for long." D-W said as he used another card.

"FORM RIDE: DOUBLE (W) LUNA-TRIGGER!"

D-W's colors went from green and black to yellow and blue respectively before transforming his Ridebooker sword into the Trigger Magnum, surprising Zolda once more.

"You just have a hat full of tricks, don't you? But, don't think it's going to save you!" Zolda said as he fired another shot from his launcher.

D-W responded to that by shooting the oncoming projectile with his own. What surprised Zolda was how D-W's shot managed to curve its way into his. Zolda kept firing and D-W kept shooting down his shots until the latter saw an opening. He immediately opened fire on Zolda, making the green Rider drop his weapon while being pelted with yellow energy shots.

Zolda soon on his knees as D-W started to approach him. The former drew out his Visor, only for that to get shot out of his hand. Zolda can now do nothing but look at D-W.

"Well, don't think I'll give you the benefit of me begging for my life." Zolda said as he glared at D-W. "Just finish me off. Do it!"

D-W said nothing but grabbed Zolda by the arm.

(With D-Ghost and Ryuki)

The two continued their sword fighting with Ghost focusing on defense. He was surprised by how this Lelouch was trained in comparison to his show counterpart. The Riders currently had their blades locked.

"Can we just stop and talk for a bit? Aren't you even curious about me?" D-Ghost tried to reason before Ryuki just kicked him back.

"With your abilities to split yourself and transform into a variety of different forms, I won't lie; I am and that makes you dangerous." Ryuki explained as he charged at Ghost.

D-Ghost tapped into Ghost's power before using it to easily dodge all of the dragon-themed Rider's attacks. D-Ghost leapt back and started flying around Ryuki. D-Ghost then switched his weapon into its gun mode before firing at Ryuki, hoping it can wear him down. When he sees Ryuki losing strength, D-Ghost dove and rammed into him. This caused Ryuki to fly back a few feet before landing on the ground.

"Are you done?" D-Ghost said as he approached Ryuki

"…" Ryuki said nothing as he only glared at D-Ghost when sitting up.

"We don't have to be enemies. I'm not even part of your Rider War." D-Ghost said, catching Ryuki's attention.

"I had a feeling." Ryuki replied as he then stood up on his feet. "Your abilities to transform, your lack of a Contract Monster, and to top it off; your belt design. But, I can't take any more risks when I'm so close to winning this Rider War."

"And is that really the best thing you want to do?"

"It's the only thing I can do." Ryuki explained before he suddenly punched D-Ghost right in the gut, making him stumble back. He then was about to pull out another card, but then…

"Your Highness!"

Ryuki looked over to see Zolda being restrained by D-W.

"Please, just give me a chance to explain myself." D-W said, forcing Ryuki to pull back his hand before everyone started noticing Ryuki and Zolda's armors starting to disintegrate. D-W lets go of Zolda before meeting up with his counterpart. The two merged and reverted back to Decade. The magenta Rider then felt a bit of a headache and sense of tiredness as he had memories of his two transformed copies colliding with each other. It didn't help that they were separated for a while too. It was probably best not to use a move like that again for a while unless he had to.

Decade just shook it off as Ryuki and Zolda walked past him with the former of the pair looking back at Decade.

"If you want to talk, you have about an hour." Ryuki said, showing he is willing to be a bit diplomatic about the whole situation.

Decade nodded as he followed them back to the entry point. Unknown to the three, two other figures were watching them from the top of a building. One of the figures was wearing a belt with a purple Advent Deck with a snake on it while the other figure had a golden version of the belt with a brown Advent Deck with a phoenix on it.

"So, another new Rider has entered the fray? Think Kanzaki managed to conjure something up at the last minute to try and stop us?" Kamen Rider Ouja asked while Kamen Rider Odin seemed to think about it before shaking his head.

"No. No, I don't think so. His abilities seem to function outside of the Riders developed by Kanzaki." Odin replied.

"That does sound a bit troubling. But tell me Charles, do you think he'll be a problem for our plans?"

"It would be best if we remain wary of the situation for now until we know more about this mystery Rider. After all, we're so close to bring this world to the end."

"Very well, we shall proceed as normal, Charles."

"Thank you…big brother."

(In the real world)

Nihlus emerged from the mirror before he noticed two more people arrive from nearby mirror. To his surprise, it was actually Lelouch and Jeremiah. Lelouch noticed Nihlus and was slightly surprised by the uniform, considering the two are wearing the same outfit and Lelouch had no current knowledge of any new student.

"Jeremiah, if he takes any action against me, you know what to do." Lelouch said, getting a nod from said man before approaching Nihlus. "So, I suppose you're the mystery Rider that we just met, correct?"

"I am."

"I'll admit; you are quite bold to unveil yourself in front of Jeremiah and I. But, don't think for a second that'll spare you from the inevitable." Lelouch said in a neutral tone of voice.

"Again, I'm not trying to kill you or win whatever Rider War you guys are a part of." Nihlus tried to explain. "My name is Nihlus Kryis. Pleasure to meet you both, despite trying to kill me back in the Mirror World."

"I'm Lelouch Lamperouge and this is Jeremiah Gottwald. He's a family friend." Lelouch explained while Jeremiah bowed out of courtesy before the raven-haired teen noticed Nihlus's uniform. "I also see that you're also a student at Ashford Academy. Strange how I never heard of you before."

"I, uh, just transferred to the Academy. I'm supposed to be starting tomorrow." Nihlus said as he showed Lelouch his acceptance letter as proof.

Lelouch took the letter and read over it before giving it back.

"Everything seems to be in order, but this doesn't change anything Rider-wise." Lelouch explained.

"Again, I'm not using a Rider system that Kanzaki developed."

"That still makes you dangerous." Lelouch said as Nihlus thought that he must be referring to the Alternative Zero Riders, which basically a group of copycat Riders trying to shut down this Rider War by attacking Kanzaki on a personal level. At least, that's how the actual show portrayed them. Nihlus genuinely had no idea if they appeared here, but judging by Lelouch's comment, the group has already been dealt with. "Which proved further true given how you managed to take on different forms to take us down."

"Are you seriously that paranoid about me?" Nihlus asked with an incredulous expression on his face. At least the other Riders gave him a chance to prove himself, but it looked like Lelouch just wanted to be rid of him as soon as possible.

"The Rider War is nearing the end with only a handful of Riders left. I am so close to attaining victory and I won't let any unknown factors take that away from me." Lelouch said sternly as he looked away. "I'll see you at school tomorrow and remember this; I won't let you get the best of me the next time we fight."

He and Jeremiah walked away as Nihlus watched them leave. A part of him felt something a bit off about Lelouch. Usually, he wouldn't turn down an asset when finding a way to control it such as his mind-controlling Geass ability. Hell, knowing that he wasn't part of the Rider War should've been enough. Did Lelouch not get his Geass yet?

That was a relief on Nihlus's part since he wouldn't have to be worried about being controlled, but he wondered why Lelouch was Ryuki and not Suzaku.

(With Lelouch and Jeremiah)

"If you wish, My Lord…I can arrange to have him arrested. Hold him back until the Rider War is over." Jeremiah suggested.

"No, he could escape through any reflective surface and too powerful to be kept unnoticed. It would be better to deal with him directly." Lelouch said as the two kept walking.

"But, would that be wise? He managed to take the two of us down on his own. And who knows what other tricks he may have at his disposal?"

Lelouch stopped and took out the Ryuki Advent Deck. He stared at it before gripping it tightly.

"Even so, I must keep fighting. Not until I can fulfill my sister's dream and honor Suzaku's memory…"

The teen said nothing as he thought back to that horrid battle…

(A couple weeks ago)

Lelouch was on the ground, breathing heavily in exhaustion as his armor just shattered like glass. Before him was the remains of his original Advent Deck; Ryuga. The blue sea-themed Rider; Kamen Rider Abyss had his Contract Monster absorb the energy that was left over from Dragblacker.

Abyss then looked over at Lelouch before approaching him with his swords readied.

"You should consider this a privilege, 'Your Highness'." Abyss said as Lelouch just stared at him with a defiant look on his face. "Better it'd be me than this world's corrosive environment. Any last words?"

The former Britannian Prince said nothing but glared.

"You truly have your parents-."

Abyss was then interrupted with a slash across the chest by Ryuki.

"Suzaku!" Lelouch called out and Ryuki only looked back and nodded in acknowledgement as he charged Abyss.

…

"FINAL VENT!"

BOOM!

Ryuki and Abyss emerged from the explosion before the latter's armor shattered, revealing a bleeding man with long dark blue hair and a Geass in his left eye.

"I've failed you, Lady Marianne…." Bismarck let out before disintegrating thanks to the Mirror World and the amount of damage Ryuki did on him.

Lelouch sighed in relief…before Ryuki fell down on the floor.

"Suzaku!" Lelouch called out as Ryuki crawled and sat against the wall nearby before pulling the deck out of his belt, revealing a very tired Suzaku with darkened eyes and blood dripping from his mouth.

"Lelouch…"

"Suzaku, just be quiet, save your energy." Lelouch said as he tried to help Suzaku out, but the latter stopped him when they noticed the former's hands starting to disintegrate.

Suzaku smiled as he took his bloodied hand and gave Lelouch the Ryuki deck.

"Suzaku, you can't just…" Lelouch started crying as he knew what was coming; his best friend's death.

"Do…what…you have to do…to live…" Suzaku smiled as he closed his eyes and his breath stopped.

"Suzaku…SUZAKU!" Lelouch started crying into Suzaku's chest while gripping the Ryuki deck before hearing footsteps. He turned and saw Odin and Ouja before standing up with an angered face.

"You took EVERYTHING from me!" Lelouch said as he held the Deck out and summoned his belt before mimicking Suzaku's pose to honor him.

"Henshin!"

Lelouch placed the deck and transformed into the new Ryuki.

(Present)

Lelouch was angered with what happened with Suzaku. He couldn't even give his body a proper funeral as it already disintegrated by the time he was done with that fight. The only mementos Lelouch had were his memories and the Ryuki Advent Deck.

He didn't half to tell his half-sister, Euphemia, anything. Only his face of regret and the bloodied Ryuki deck was enough to tell the innocent young girl what happened. Ever since then, he was cut off from her as she now spends most of her time in mourning and Lelouch couldn't blame her. Hell, he couldn't find the strength in him to tell Nunnally. The best he can do was tell her that was that Suzaku had to go somewhere far and won't be back for a long time.

"My Lord, you have your mother's tenacity. And while I have sworn my life to serving the Empire, it is your mother that given me my love for it." Jeremiah said sternly, placing a hand on Lelouch's shoulder. "Even though we are destined to fight, I shall give you as much support as time will allow me."

Lelouch smiled.

"Thank you, Jeremiah. We will make our dream a reality. But for now, I have a certain new student to be on the lookout for..."

(With Nihlus)

Nihlus arrived at the studio and sees that it hasn't been defaced yet.

"Okay, so far so good…" Nihlus remarked to himself as he entered the building and sees Mr. Hitachi counting today's earnings with Yugi brushing up the place before the latter noticed him.

"Nihlus!" Yugi placed the broom away and ran to Nihlus. "The girls explained to me what happened to you. Sorry that I wasn't there to help you."

"It's alright, Yugi." Nihlus consoled and while he didn't want to be mean to Yugi, he has to admit that Kuuga wouldn't be much help anyways. His powers aren't tailored towards travelling to the Mirror World. "By the way, where are the girls? Are they safe?"

The young man nodded.

"Yeah, we moved Chelsea's new bed and things into Fuu's room. They're probably arranging their new room to calm down from the attack."

"Great, let's go. I should probably fill you guys in on the Riders that I've encountered here." Nihlus said as he gestured Yugi to follow him, getting the latter to nod back in slight excitement as they can final get things going around here.

The two Riders went upstairs and entered Fuu's room, which had a huge overall. As opposed to being in the center of the room, it was now at the left side with another bed on the other. They saw Chelsea's now empty open case, meaning that she has fully settled in.

The two girls, who were talking, finally noticed the two guys and rushed at Nihlus.

"You're okay!" Chelsea sighed in relief.

"I told you that he'd be fine!" Fuu smiled as she looked at Chelsea. "You should've seen how worried she was over you-."

Chelsea then lightly elbowed Fuu, getting the mint-haired girl to stay quiet.

"So, what happened? Did you run into this world's Rider?" Fuu asked, looking eager.

"I, uh, have but things got complicated." Nihlus explained.

"How complicated?" Chelsea asked as Nihlus then started to tell his story of what happened ranging from fighting the Mirror Monsters to encountering Kamen Riders Ryuki and Zolda, including their fight.

He described to them what the Ryuki Riders were like and Yugi, being a Rider himself, was the most upset out of the three of them.

"You've gotta be kidding me!" Yugi exclaimed in a very pissed off expression.

"I know, but there wasn't anything I can do to convince him otherwise."

"Well, when you see that Rider, let me come with you! I'll give him a piece of my mind!"

"Uh…no offense, but I don't think your powers can allow you to travel to the Mirror World." Nihlus said, knowing full well that only Decade and the Ryuki Riders have the ability to travel to the Mirror World.

"Oh yeah?" Yugi looked over to Chelsea's mirror nearby before summoning the Arcle.

"Wait Yugi, don't-!" Nihlus warned, but he was too late as said young man performed his pose while the girls backed up away from him.

"Henshin!"

Yugi activated his belt as he then transformed into Kuuga. Kuuga took a deep breath as he looked at the mirror once more before charging towards it. However, the result wasn't the one that he was hoping for…

THUD!

Kuuga ended up falling into the ground after crashing and breaking the mirror.

"Warned you." Nihlus said as Chelsea walked up to the downed Rider and started kicking him in a comically fashion.

"Stupid idiot! I just moved and settled in! And now you're messing with my stuff! You deserve that seven years of bad luck!"

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Kuuga said as he felt each kick, despite wearing armor. After getting Chelsea to calm down a bit, Kuuga reverted back to Yugi before the guys left the room. Fuu looked at Chelsea, who was just staring at her broken mirror.

"Oh come on…"

"Sorry, Yugi can be really passionate about his duties as a Rider. Maybe more so than Nihlus at times." Fuu apologized as she scratched the back of her head. "We still have my mirror though. The two of us can share."

"Never thought I'd meet another child like Nihlus and Tatsumi." Chelsea remarked as she allowed herself to fall down on her new bed. The auburn-haired then thought back to today. Sure, seeing a modern city was enough to make feel like a newborn exploring new unknown boundaries.
But…then she thought back to when that monster attacked her earlier ago. Nihlus and Fuu had to step in while she couldn't even do anything about it, just like her near-death experience when Nihlus was barely able to save her life from Kurome's corpse puppets. That had to change, Chelsea clenched her synthetic hand as she felt more and more frustrated until an idea came to her.

She looked at Fuu, who seemed to be concentrating on something. Unknown to her, Fuu was actually having a mental conversation with Nanabi. Chelsea moved over to her and shook her a bit, snapping Fuu out of her thoughts with Nanabi.

"Hm?"

"Hey Fuu, can I ask you for a favor?"

"What's up?"

"You were able to take care of yourself and I during today's fight."

Fuu chuckled a bit at that.

"Thanks! Though, it isn't really right me to take all of the credit-."

"Can you please teach me how to fight the same way you do?" Chelsea interrupted, quickly surprising the teal-haired girl.

"W-What?"

"I know you haven't seen me in much action back in my world, but my abiltites revolved around espionage with Gaea Foundation. With that destroyed, I need to find a new way to pull my weight around this team. What better way than learning how to fight than from you?"

"I, uh…" Fuu smiled as she blushed a little, a bit touched someone holds her to such a high degree. "I'm flattered, but why don't you ask any of the guys?"

"Well, obviously, I'm still irritated at Yugi for breaking my mirror and as for Nihlus… I don't want to give him any more trouble. He had to save my life from Kurome not that long ago. And today, both of you had to fend off these Mirror Monsters" Chelsea admitted. "With Nihlus now thrust into this world's version of Rider World, he already has a lot on his plate. I don't want to add any more to it-."

Fuu smiled as she wrapped her arm around Chelsea's neck and pulled her close in a friendly manner.

"Well, don't you worry about it! You want training from me? You got it!" She smiled as she felt Nanabi chuckle in the back of her head.

"Well look at you, my lucky larva. You becoming a very young sensei." Nanabi laughed as Fuu did her best to ignore.

"When we're done, Nihlus is going to be extremely impressed with how well you can fight!" Fuu smiled as Chelsea blushed a bit at the thought of Nihlus being impressed. She didn't know why, but the way she was feeling about Nihlus was similar to the way she used to feel about Tatsumi. "So, how about we start first thing tomorrow?"

"Y-Yeah, that sounds good." Chelsea replied as she forced her blush to die down.

(Later at night)

Nihlus was trying to sleep as he then heard a certain type of ringing. The young man woke up as he immediately recognized this ringing, He got out of bed and took his Decadriver on the nightstand nearby before placing it on.

He took out his card and was prepared to transform before…

"Nihlus Kryis."

Nihlus looked around and saw the mastermind behind this Rider War, Shiro Kanzaki, facing him from his mirror.

"You know who I am?" Nihlus said as he still readied himself to transform.

Kanzaki nodded as he pointed at Nihlus.

"This will be your only warning." Kanzaki said as Nihlus just stared at him in surprise. "Do not interfere with the Rider War…or face the consequences."

He then vanished, leaving Nihlus alone. To him, this wasn't good as Kanzaki is now aware of his participation. Being the creator and, technically, the ruler of the Mirror World, Kanzaki was capable of anything. So now not only does Nihlus has to worry about Lelouch targeting him, but also Kanzaki.

"Great…" he groaned before taking off his device and getting back to bed, trying to sleep his worries away, which is much easier said than done.

(The next day at Ashford Academy)

Nihlus and Yugi were now in the front gates of the school.

"So, this is where our Rider goes to school?"

"Yup." Nihlus nodded.

"You sure you don't need me with you while you're there?" Yugi asked as he didn't like the fact that he has to leave his friend alone with a homicidal Rider.

"Yugi, only students are allowed past these gates." Nihlus explained, also trying to hide the fact that this school can also be racist thanks to Britannia nationalism. "Besides, you tested it yesterday. You can't go into the Mirror World with me."

"I know and that just really…" Yugi clenched his fists in frustration. Nihlus then thought about it before smiling.

"Well, how about you think about it like this? You can hold down the fort down on this side of this world while I deal with Lelouch and everything else in the Mirror World."

Yugi smiled as he nodded, knowing that he could help contribute in some way. Before Nihlus looked back at the front gates.

"I'll meet you all later after school. Hopefully, I can still try to talk down Lelouch during school hours." Nihlus said, hoping there is still chance for dialogue.

"And if there isn't?"

"…I still have to try, even if I can't." Nihlus admitted.

"I know you can do it, Nihlus. You already helped out a bunch of World Riders already. This will be no different!" Yugi exclaimed, expressing his faith in his friend.

"Thanks. Alright, into the abyss I go. Wish me luck." Nihlus said as he then went through the gates and entered the academy while Yugi left before more and more students entered.

Nihlus pulled out his notes and entered the headmaster's office, where after a brief introduction, he got his class schedule and hurried quickly to the homeroom. Upon entering the classroom, he finds Lelouch seated in one of the desks. Lelouch noticed Nihlus and looked surprised for brief few seconds before relaxing his face, not trying to look suspicious as was Nihlus.

The homeroom teacher took notice of the young man and approached him.

"Hello, you must be the new student I've been notified about."

"That's right." Nihlus nodded.

"Alright." The teacher then looked at the rest of the students as he and Nihlus moved up to the front. "Alright everyone, settle down! Settle down." He repeated, getting the rest of the class to quiet and sit in their seats. "Now I know it's quite late in the school year, but I would like to introduce a new student. Go ahead."

"Okay, um, my name is Nihlus Kryis. It's nice to meet you all." He said, gaining no replies.

"Thank you, Mr. Kryis. Why don't you take the seat next to Lelouch?"

Nihlus nodded as he took a seat next to the raven-haired teen. Lelouch only took a small glance at him before he resumed his own business. Nihlus gulped in nervousness, knowing that Lelouch probably still wants to kill him.

Luckily for the world traveler, the rest of the class went by smoothly. Nihlus couldn't really focus on school due to Lelouch and the possibility of a Mirror World attack, especially given Kanzaki's warning last night.

After a few more classes, Nihlus decided to take a breather up on the roof.

"Damn, that was really nerve-racking…" He thought out loud to himself.

"You're telling me." A voice said, getting Nihlus's attention. He turned around and saw Lelouch with a stern face.

"Lelouch…"

"Nihlus, correct?" Lelouch asked as he approached him., getting a nod as a reply. "I'll admit, it is surprising that you are in a few of my classes. I wonder if it's pure coincidence or…"

"I have nothing to do with how my schedule looked!" Nihlus defended.

"Relax, I'm not looking to fight you. Not right now, anyways." Lelouch assured, getting Nihlus to relax a little but he was prepared to defend himself if need be.

"So, can I still hope to talk you down from this?" Nihlus asked.

Lelouch chuckled.

"Don't sound so naïve. Reminds me of…" Lelouch then stopped himself, clenching the Ryuki Deck in his pocket.

"Reminds you of who?"

"Nothing. I just want to see how much of this Rider War do you know." Lelouch explained.

"Only the basic premise, but given how desperate you were to kill me the other day, there's not that many Riders left, right?" Nihlus guessed.

Lelouch nodded.

"Outside of you and I, there's Jeremiah and two other Riders."

"Who are the other two?" Nihlus asked, knowing that one of them is probably Odin since he's supposed to take on the role of the "final boss" of this Rider War.

"Their names are Kamen Riders Ouja and Odin. They've been the biggest thorn in my side for a long time now. Though…I do wonder if you'll take their place."

"I'm not your enemy!" Nihlus stressed. "You've seen my abilities. I'm not like the other Riders who are participating in this war! There's a bigger picture going on here!"

"I still can't risk a wild card like you ruining things for me. Not when I'm this close." Lelouch calmly explained before the two then heard a familiar ringing.

The two glanced at each other before rushing downstairs. They head to the nearest male bathroom, where the ringing was the loudest. The teens saw a GuldStorm attacking a male student before Lelouch rushed in and kicked the monster away while Nihlus helped the victim onto his feet.

"Get out of here!" Nihlus hurried as the male student just ran away from the scene.

Before transforming and heading in, the guys checked the stalls to see that no one was preoccupied.

"All clear!" Nihlus said as he joined Lelouch's side before looking at the mirror. Lelouch took out his Advent Deck and held it out while Nihlus placed on his Decadriver, getting the former's attention.

Lelouch then refocused when his V-Buckle suddenly appeared and snapped onto his waist before performing his pose. Nihlus took his card out after opening his driver.

"Henshin!"

Lelouch placed his deck into the belt slot while Nihlus placed his card in and closed his belt.

"KAMEN RIDE: DECADE!"

Nihlus and Lelouch transformed into Decade and Ryuki respectively before looking at each other.

"Alright…" Ryuki said calmly as he then entered the mirror while Decade shook his head.

"That's just…that just doesn't feel right." Decade noted as Ryuki would usually say that more enthusiastically before he followed the latter into the mirror.

(In the Mirror World)

Two Rideshooters emerged from outside windows of the Mirror Ashford Academy courtyard. The two vehicles stopped and opened, allowing the two Riders to step out.

"The monster shouldn't be too far away, right?"

"Hopefully." Ryuki said before looking at Decade. "Let's be clear about something. The monster has a higher priority. As soon as we're done with it and if our armor is still in good condition, I will not hesitate to finish what we started yesterday."

"Great, something to look forward to." Decade said as the two started looking around before seeing the turkey-themed monster trying to escape through the front gate. "Stop!"

Decade transformed his Ridebooker into its gun mode before opening fire at the monster, stopping it in its track. Ryuki rushed ahead as he opened his Visor and placed a card in before closing.

"SWORD VENT!"

Ryuki obtained his Dragsaber and managed to get one slash in before the monster took out its tomahawk. It blocked any more of Ryuki's attacks before kicking him to the side. Decade caught up as he converted his gun to a sword. The two clashed weapons for a bit while Ryuki recovered and charged back into the fight.

The monster noticed and quickly moved Decade into Ryuki's direction as the red Rider attacked, incidentally hitting Decade. Ryuki didn't seem too concerned as he just pushed Decade away before slashing GuldStorm a couple of times.

The monster stumbled back as Ryuki took out another card from his deck and placed it in his Visor before closing it.

"STRIKE VENT!"

Ryuki received his Dragclaw before his Advent Monster, Dragreder, appeared. It looked at Ryuki and the two nodded at each other before firing fireballs at the monster. The attacks landed a direct hit at the monster's chest, causing it to fly out of the gate and land directly onto the street.

"I'll leave the rest to you…" Dragreder said to his partner before leaving. Ryuki calmly walked towards the monster as he pulled out his Final Vent card. But right before he can use it, a GuldMirage monster leaped seemingly out of nowhere and tackled the red Rider, making him drop his card.

It pinned Ryuki down and started scratching into his armor, causing Ryuki to scream in pain until…

"ATTACK RIDE: BLAST!"

A series of energy shots collided with the green monster, forcing it off of Ryuki. Ryuki sat up and turned to see Decade with a smoking gun.

"I'm fine. Thanks for asking." Decade said as he walked up to a recovering Ryuki as the monsters regrouped and looked the Riders. "Two-on-two. Seems like a fair fight. We got this."

"Didn't come this far to get killed off by mere Mirror Monsters." Ryuki said as he dismissed his DragClaw before pointing his sword at the GuldStorm. "I'll take him on and you can have his friend."

"Sounds like a plan." Decade agreed as he charged at the GuldMirage as he transformed his gun into a sword and landed multiple slashes while Ryuki did the same with his chosen opponent.

(With Ryuki)

Ryuki was clashing weapons with the turkey-theme monster while Kanzaki was watching from a nearby mirror, taking note of everything that's been going on.

The GuldStorm noticed him before throwing its tomahawk at Ryuki. Ryuki charged as he slashed it away, only for the monster's weapon to fly back for its target. Without even looking at the oncoming projectile, Ryuki utilized a new card.

"GUARD VENT!"

Ryuki was equipped with two shoulder pauldrons that resembled Dragreder's abdomen and claws. The shields took the blunt of the tomahawk and that didn't seem to stop Ryuki from charging. Using his pauldrons, he rammed into the monster and pressed him against the wall.

Ryuki took a few steps back, allowing the monster to fall down before struggling to get back up.

"Time that I finish this." Ryuki said as he took out a card from before and placing it in his Visor before closing it.

"FINAL VENT!"

Hearing that sound, Dragreder appeared once more as Ryuki dismissed his shields and sword. He performed a martial art pose as his partner monster circled around him. The red Rider then jumped int the air as the dragon followed him. After a few flips, Ryuki was now in a flying sidekick position as Dragreder was right behind him.

The monster caught on to what Ryuki was doing and tried to get away, but it was fruitless as Dragreder utilized his fiery breath to propel Ryuki at him in a blaze. The attack collided with the monster, causing an explosion.

Ryuki emerged unharmed as the monster left behind an energy orb for Dragreder to consume. As Ryuki was about to leave to check up Decade, he noticed Kanzaki looking at him as if he had something to say.

(With Decade)

Decade was trying his hardest not to get mauled like Ryuki was before the GuldMirage took a chakram-like weapon. The two clashed weapons multiple times before the monster got the upper hand by exploiting an opening. It slashed Decade across the chest before throwing him into the school fountain.

"Damn you!" Decade cursed as he recovered, opening his Driver and getting his Kuuga card out. He then stopped himself as he suddenly remembered Dark Decade's words.

"You've been way too dependent on this card lately."

While she may have been referring to the Kabuto card at the time, Decade couldn't help but feel he's been too reliant on the Form Ride cards especially given his last fight with Ryuki and Zolda.

Upon seeing the monster getting closer and closer, Decade replaced the Kuuga card with something else before using it.

"ATTACK RIDE: SLASH!"

Decade's sword started charging with pink energy as the GuldMirage jumped up into the air and dove for the magenta Rider. Decade slashed across the monster, stopping and wounding it in its tracks.

The GuldMirage was groaning in pain as Decade got out of the fountain and utilized another card.

"ATTACK RIDE: ILLUSION!"

Decade split into three and seemed to be moving in synch as they transformed their swords into guns. The small firing squad took aim and opened fire at the monster, wearing it down. GuldMirage groaned in pain as its body was smoking while the Decades merged back quickly, not wanting a repeat of last time.

Seeing the monster was pretty much ripe for the picking, Decade took out his finisher card and used it.

"FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-DECADE!"

A series of giant holographic cards appeared between the two while Decade aimed his gun one last time before pulling the trigger, releasing a huge energy blast getting bigger and bigger as it went through each card. When it collided with the GuldMirage, it resulted in a giant explosion with the only remainder of the monster being its energy orb.

Soon Dragreder appeared out of nowhere and consumed before flying away. Decade looked around before finding Ryuki approaching him.

"I see you took care of your monster." The dragon-themed Rider remarked as he stopped.

"Yeah, I can say the same about you?"

Ryuki nodded.

"Come on, we should head back before our armors-."

"Tell me something." Ryuki interrupted. "Did you notice something off about this battle?"

"No…" Decade replied, already not liking where Ryuki was going with this.

"We've been in the Mirror World for a while and there have been no other Riders present"

Decade looked around as he started piecing it together.

"Kanzaki…he lured the two of us out here with those monsters. Why-?"

"Kanzaki told me."

"Told you what?"

"How you know about the Mirror World. Specifically, how to destroy it. I can't let that information go around freely." Ryuki said as Decade took a couple steps back.

"Lelouch, please! I don't want to fight you! I can't stress that enough!"

"Even so, you're an anomaly and you know too much." Ryuki said calmly. "That's more than enough reason for me to want to fight you."

"You sure you want to do this dance, Lelouch? You know what happened last time." Decade said, trying to intimidate Ryuki but it didn't seem to work.

"Which is why I'm going to go all out…" Ryuki said as he pulled out a card and showed it, making Decade's eyes widen underneath his helmet.

It was a card with a golden wing on it with flames in the background. Soon flames started to appear and circle around the two as Ryuki's Visor transformed into a gun, resembling a dragon's head with a grille over its eyes.

The gun soon opened its mouth, revealing a dock for the card. Ryuki calmly placed the card inside before closing the gun.

"SURVIVE!"

Ryuki readied himself before some of the flames moved and swirled around Ryuki before seemingly consuming him. Ryuki then dismissed the fire, revealing a new form.

Ryuki's original red bodysuit was replaced with a black one with red chest armor that looks like Dragreder's face. The interior of the chest armor had silver ridges and a golden line going down the center. Above the silver ridges were two black slits that resemble eyes. The shoulder pads looked like horns that curved backwards and looked like they were connected to the chest armor. On both of his forearms were red guards with golden add on armor that resemble a dragon's head. His shin guards were also red and with the golden dragon designs as well. The helmet looked the same as before, but the top of the face guard was golden and with two golden antennae sticking upwards. His deck was no longer black, but red just like his armor. This was Kamen Rider Ryuki Survive Mode.

Decade was intimidated as he now had to face a Kamen Rider in final form. This was not going to be easy.
