Chapter 2: Her purpose! The Blue Watermelon Rider!
The Mysterious Forest
In the forest where the Inves reside in, a bald man in his thirties with sideburns, wearing a half torn shirt was running for his life. His name is Kinoaki Shin (1), an employee of Yggdrasil Corporation, he worked from bottom to top for years, until they found out he's using a clever alias and infiltrated their company as a spy for another. He is now being chased by four soldiers wearing matching black uniforms with chest and shoulder pads along helmets, who were also carrying guns as they tried to shoot him down.
"There's nowhere for you to run Kinoaki!" one soldier yelled.
"Just turn yourself in and accept your fate." another suggested and cocked his gun.
"How about you accept these?!" Shin yelled, bringing out two Lockseeds, one pinecone and an acorn, and he activated them both to bring out two human sized Inves through zipper portals.
"What the-?" the first soldier asked as he was tackled by a red elemental Inves, "Aah!"
The soldiers were surprised by the attack and ready to shoot it down before they were attacked from behind by a blue one. And while they were distracted, this was Shin's chance to escape, but unfortunately...
BANG! "Aah!" Shin cried after he was shot in the arm, he dropped both of his Lockseeds and fell to his knees. The shot didn't hit anything vital, but it would turn fatal if left untreated.
BANG! BANG! BANG! The Inves were also shot from behind as a white figure stood behind them in the shadows, carrying a Musou Saber and a shield in his hands. He walked out to reveal himself as a white body-suited armored samurai warrior with green and golden melon armor on his chest, shoulder, a helmet along with a green visor, and a golden stag headdress on his head. And on his left arm, he holds a green melon themed shield that resembles his head. He is Kamen Rider Zangetsu, or Armored Rider Zangetsu.
He charged towards the staggered Inves to slash them down, killing them as they exploded. The rider glanced at Shin, still clutching onto his gunshot wound.
"You're not going anywhere." Zangetsu said, and the four recovered soldiers, surrounded the man with their guns pointed at him, "You've got some nerve stealing from us after changing your name, and worked for our company to infiltrate into our ranks. It was a good plan, but you didn't think through on the setbacks while working your way up, did you?" he walked towards the man and kneeled down to his eye level, "Now then, where did you hide it?"
Center of Town Square
We go to Korra and Naga, with the former covered in bruises and a scratch on her leg, and standing in front of the unconscious Chief Takatsukasa on the ground along with a couple of police officers. She held a metal bat towards the Lizard Inves that attacked them earlier, ready to bite her head off.
"Ready to do this Naga?" Korra asked her loyal friend only to get a growl and a bark in response, and she took that as a yes, "That's what I wanna hear, now let's take this monster down!" and the two charged at the Inves and the monster was ready to attack. But they stopped when gunshots were heard and sparks flew out from the Inves' right side as it was being pelted by bullets.
Arriving at the scene was Gaim, yelling a battle cry and charging at the monster with his Musou Saber in his right hand and Daidaimaru on his left.
"Get away from her!" Gaim yelled as he slashed down the Inves with both swords, with sparks flying out of it.
"Huh?" Korra asked with a blink in confusion to see an orange armored samurai fighting the Lizard Inves, "An orange samurai?" the brunette asked slowly, she has heard many strange things in Japan, but to see an orange samurai of all things. But what really caught her eye was the belt he's wearing, which kinda looks like the one she has, only, it's brand new. And she looked at hers around the waist.
"He has the same belt as I do." Korra said to herself, and a thought crossed her mind as she tapped a finger on her chin in thought, "Wait, I think I've heard of this kind of guy from before. But what?"
(The scene now zipped to reveal the opening)
(Insert OP: Just Live More by Gaim no Kaze)
(The opening begins with Kamen Rider Gaim, Baron, Ryugen, and Zangetsu in their battle stance with a fence behind their backs with locks. They were then switched by Gaim with Avatar, Baron with Mulan, Ryugen with Nuktuk, and Zangetsu with Masamune. And the camera now focusing on Avatar switching to Gaim who readied his sword.)
Got it, Move...Wow,
(Helheim's vines diminished as they reveal the four elements, earth, fire, air, and water. They were cut down by slashes until the title of the series reveals itself.)
Kamen Rider Gaim and Avatar
Don't Say No, JUST LIVE MORE!
Don't Say No, JUST LIVE MORE!
(We cut to the eight riders in a room full of samurai armor as they took their pose. The scene shifted to Gaim in an empty world while he held out his Musou Saber with Kouta's reflection under him, holding his sword of course.)
Sabaibaru! You got move. Gendai wa sanagara Sengoku
Survival! You got move. The present day is just like the Sengoku period.
(Kouta ran towards the screen, but stopped when a fence with locks blocked his path. He then sees his double in front of him, holding a Lockseed, and he calls out to him. But he and the fence immediately turned into stone, then to dust and blown away by the wind as the other Kouta simply walked away.)
Dare ga kachinukeru? Kagi wa hirake rarete shimatta!
Who will win? The lock has been opened!
(We take the next scene to Team Baron, with Kaito leading in front of Zack, and Peco, who are dancing in front of a building. We shift to Kouta and Kaito, who looked at each other with Lockseeds in their hands. Kouta holding his Orange Lockseed and Kaito holding his Banana Lockseed. Below them is their reflection in their rider forms, Kamen rider Gaim and Kamen Rider Baron, who darted towards each other to fight. We shift to Korra, Asami, Mako, and Bolin who had their backs turned to each other and took their battle stance, and their reflections replaced by their rider counterparts Avatar, Mulan, Masamune, and Nuktuk did the same, only with their weapons in their hands.)
Don't Say No, JUST LIVE MORE!
Doko ni aru?
Where is it?
Don't Say No, JUST LIVE MORE!
(We shift back to Gaim and Baron's fight, and in their reflection Kouta and Kaito were in some kind of hand-wrestle with their lockseeds in their hands. We go to Micchy, who picked up his Budou Lockseed and saw his older brother, Takatora, holding his Melon Lockseed. And their Rider counterparts are in their reflections. He ran towards him, but like with Kouta, a fence with locks blocked his path before Takatora looked behind to see his younger brother and Zangetsu held his Musou Saber near Ryugen's neck.)
Do tsukau, kindan no kajitsu?!
How shall it be used, that forbidden fruit?!
(Back in the room where the riders posed, one by one appeared from Gaim to Avatar. We go to Gaim in Suika Arms only to go gyro mode, and Baron, drove right past him on Rose Attacker. And the next scene shows the characters Henshin with their Sengoku Drivers in order, from Zangetsu to Masamune, Ryugen, Nuktuk, Baron, Mulan, Avatar, and Gaim.)
`Ima' to iu kaze wa nani o tsutaeru tame? [Omae no moto ni fuku? Tsuyoku Tsuyoku! Blowin' up!]
What is the wind of the moment trying to say? [Is it blowing to you? Get stronger, much stronger! Blowin' up!]
(Gaim drew his Musou Saber to battle, and he slashed an inves with his hybrid weapon across the stomach. Next we go to Team Gaim dancing in front of their headquarters, then we go to Team Fire Ferrets headquarters with the team doing their dance, and the same goes to Mulan. The cameras then shifts focus on Kouta, Mai, Micchy, Korra, Mako, Bolin, and Asami dancing. And we go to Kouta greeting Mai and their reflections show Kaito with the Priestess of Fate, who looks like Mai.)
(We go to Zangetsu who aims his Musou Saber at the screen with an army of pinecone samurai themed riders behind him holding spears. Next we have Kamen Rider Gaim with Avatar slashing down the pinecone themed riders while Baron and Mulan did the same in Gaim and Avatar's reflection.)
Ashita ga yume ga mada mienakute mo [Soko genkai? Seiippai ikite iru to ierunara?]
Even if you can't dream of the future [Is that your limit? Can you say you're living without your might?]
(In a forest, Kamen Rider Ryugen shoots down a fence blocking his path and ran forward and we go back to Team Gaim/Fire Ferrets/Mulan in a three way split screen who finished their dance, disappeared. And we focus on Gaim's outside headquarters to be replaced by the Priestess of Fate, who points towards the screen.)
(Next we focus on Gaim's arms, Lockseed, and Daidaimaru to the floor, and we focus back to Gaim slicing down to the screen with the pinecone riders standing behind him.)
Utsumuku na yo... [Kao agero!] Doko madede mo... [Mageru koto naku!]
Don't look down... [Lift up your face!] No matter where you are... [Don't become twisted!]
(We shift to Banana arms with the Banana Lockseed and Banaspear, then to Team Baron finishing their dance, and we go to Kamen Rider Baron slashing down inves in the mysterious forest with his banaspear and finished with a pose. Next we shift to Starfruit Arms with the Starfruit Lockseed and Starfruit Saber, Budou Arms with the Grape Lockseed and Budou Ryuhou, Melon Arms with the Melon Lockseed and the Melon Defender, Fire Arms with the Fire Chili Pepper Lockseed and Hiegashimaru, Earth Arms with the Earth Coconut Lockseed and Tsuchui, and Water Arms with the Water Watermelon Lockseed and Mizuspear.)
Shinjita michi o yuke, JUST LIVE MORE!
Follow the path you believe in, Just Live More!
(All eight riders are back to back with each other, swinging and aiming their weapons towards the screen. We next go to Kouta who ran towards the fence of locks, screaming until the premature Lockseed fruits and plants grew around him.)
Don't Say No, JUST LIVE MORE!
(Finally, we see Kamen Rider Gaim riding on his horse to battle along with Avatar riding on Naga by his side.)
Town Square 10 minutes early
After Korra and Naga escape the mysterious forest where the Inves reside in, they went to Town Square to stop and rest by the water fountain where she met Kouta for the second time. The polar bear dog was drinking out a large water bowl after the dark-skinned girl scooped up some from the fountain, and she sat down on the edge of the fountain.
The brunette pulled out the Lockseeds that she got from the forest, "Just what are these things?" Korra asked as she observed them, "These locks are from that strange forest where those Inves live and they can summon them." and she looked to the porthole on her ancient belt and it had the same shape as her Lockseed.
From there, the brunette had an idea, "Hmm, I wonder..." Korra said in thought, out of curiosity she unlocked one Sunflower Lockseed and placed it in her belt's porthole before locking it. It glowed for a moment along with the belt much to her surprise, "Whoa..." and to surprise her even more, it was glowing again and gave a pulsing sound like a heartbeat.
Korra then looked to her right pocket where the glowing purple fruit is. and she was about to bring it out, only to stop to hear a commotion.
Around the corner, an elderly man was pushed out of his shop and fell to the ground. He struggled to get up to see three finely dressed shady-looking men walked out of an antique shop with smug looks on their faces. They are known as the Triple Threat Triad(2), a criminal organization that resides in Zawame city, and many say that they are even more dangerous and intimidating than the average Yakuza.
The middle one in the group has light dark skin, sideburns and a chin-strap beard, wore a blue coat and matching pants, white shirt, and a white fedora hat. His name, not important but goes by the alias Viper (3), he's one of the leaders of the triad, and he runs a 'protection racket' in the city in one of the city's district. It's a miracle that these crooks aren't caught yet by the police force yet.
To Viper's left is a man who is shorter than the two, has slick hair and a pointy mustache, pale skin and a scar across his left eye. He wore a black suit with a red scarf around his neck. He is known as "Two-Toed" Ping (4), the smart and wise guy of the group.
And to the right of the former, is a large man with a shaved haircut, who appears to be all brawn and no brain, and he wore a green Chinese tunic with black pants. He goes by the alias Qiáng (5), and he is the muscle member of the group.
"Your dues are behind Chung-san (6)." Viper said as he stepped forward, "Please pay us or my friends here won't guaranteed that they won't protect your fine establishment." He gestured to Ping and Qiáng with the former bringing out a metal bat and the latter slamming his fist into his palm.
"I-I'm sorry, but business has been slow." the elder called Chung apologized, "Please, take anything you like from the store." it appears that he is under the 'Protection Program' of the triads and is having hard time paying the bills.
The three glanced at one another before they laughed, "Oh I'm sorry, but my friends aren't antique collectors." Viper said mockingly, and he walked up to him, "Now give us the money, or we trash the place until it's nothing but rubble."
Mr. Chung glanced away nervously, he can't pay them right now, and business has been tough on him since no one was bothering to stop by at his shop. He had already gave them all of his fine jewelry from the last time they visited. And seeing that he has no choice, he may as well let them do as they please, but...
"Leave him alone!" a voice demanded and the three mobsters turned to the voice to see Micchy carrying bags. The teen was out doing some shopping some soda and snacks for his teammates, and he went by this district because it was faster. And there was a reason why no one uses it, it's because of these triad thugs.
"Stay out of this kid, this is none of your business." Viper warned him with intimidation.
"It is when you Triad thugs are picking on a defenseless old man." Mitsuzane said as he dropped his bags and reached into his pocket, "And I should say the same to the witnesses around here." to prove his point, the bystanders popped out of their hiding places, looking with stunning worry to see the young man stand up to the triad members.
The three thugs looked to each other and laughed, thinking that this kid is joking, trying to play hero here. And if these witnesses were so tough as him, why didn't they come out and face them from before?
"You're pretty funny kid." Viper said, he opened his coat to reveal a gun holster on his belt with the gun in it, "I hate funny kids. So I'll let you off with a warning, skedaddle on out of here and forget what you just saw today."
Micchy didn't leave from his spot, nor didn't show any fear on his face as he slowly brought out his Sunflower Lockseed out of his coat pocket. For it is not only for summoning Inves, but it's also for summoning the force field for the battle between Inves, one that anyone can be trapped if you activate them and have them in the distance of it. And he was planning to trap these thugs and call the police.
"Bastard!" a female voice shouted and before Viper could respond...
WHAM! He was kneed in the head by a certain dark-skinned girl and was slammed into the front of a car. His car. And he comically slid down until he hit the ground, unconscious.
Micchy, Mr. Chung, Ping and Qiáng were taken aback by Korra's surprise attack. The gangsters gazed at the brunette before each other and nodded furiously. Qiáng was the first to move as he tried to punch her, but Korra dodged it effortlessly by taking a step back for his slow movement. Seeing how big he is, there's no guarantee the girl will beat him in close combat. So she did what she's not afraid to do if she had to... fight dirty.
WHACK! She kicked him really hard in the groin area, making his eyes nearly popping out of his head in pain, and he cried out in pure agony as he held his family jewels.
Qiáng recoiled in pain, "Ow! That really hurt..." he moaned out before falling to his knees and flat on his face to the hard ground, knocking him out unconscious as well. Everyone watching the fight felt sorry for the man, even if he is a triad member, no man should ever suffer from getting kicked in the groin.
Ping snapped out of his stupor, realizing that he was the last man standing, he stared at the girl with a nervous and shaky look on his face. Sweat was pouring down as he held his metal bat towards the girl and attempt the tough guy act but was failing.
"You should give up while you can." Korra said with a smug smile, "Unless you wanna join your friends here."
Without warning Ping gave a loud battle cry as he closed his eyes and swung his bat in blind fury, hoping to at least hit her once. But he didn't notice Micchy, who was still there, pulled out his Sunflower Lockseed and tossed it to the ground to aim at the man's feet. Ping slipped and tripped on it like soap, making him fall forward, passed Korra after she moved to the left, and...
SLAM! Ping's face slammed into a lamp post, he slid down comically like his friend Viper, and needless to say, he's out cold with a dented and dopey look on his face. You could almost see birds flying around his head.
"Well, I say that takes care of these hoodlums." Korra said with a proud smile as she crossed her arms, she turned to the Beat Rider, "Thanks for your help stranger."
Micchy nodded, "No problem, I'll call the police." he said, dialing 199 on his cell phone.
Korra looked to see Mr. Chung still on the floor with a look of awe and shock, stunned to see the young lady take out three members of the triads effortlessly.
"Are you okay?" Korra asked, offering a helping hand to him.
Mr. Chung shook out of his stupor, accepted her hand, and got up, "Yes, I'm fine." he replied and gave a grateful smile to her, "Thank you for saving my life."
Korra returned his smile with her own, "You're welcome. But I shouldn't take all the credit, this guy tripped the last one when he..." she looked to where he is, only to see him disappear, "Where did he go?"
Mr. Chung looked around to find the young man and said, "Whoever he is, I guess he doesn't want to take some of the credit." he gave a chuckle, "How nice it is to be young and modest." and he missed those days so.
Korra sighed, 'I didn't even ask what his name is.' she complained mentally before she tapped her chin and gave a puzzled look, 'And why does he look so familiar?'
Five Minutes Later
Six police officers arrived at the scene after receiving an anonymous tip from Mitsuzane, and they've arrested three members of the Triple Threat Triad.
Mr. Chung, Korra, and everyone else who was at the crime scene explained to the Lieutenant about what happened, how Korra stopped two of the three triads along with Micchy tripping the third one.
"Take them away boys." the captain ordered his men as he finished writing up his report, and he turned to Mr. Chung "We've been trying to catch these guys for months." the four officers placed handcuffs on the three mobsters and brought them up to bring them to the police car. One escorting Viper, another with Ping, and two with Qiáng since he's big.
As soon as they left, the lieutenant turned to Korra, "You too young lady."
Korra was taken aback by the officer's remark, "What? Why me?!" she demanded.
The officer next to him pulled out his notepad to point out, "Vigilantism, property damage..." he pointed to the pole with Ping's face implant on it, "And not following the leash law for your polar bear dog." he gestured to the fountain to where Naga is drinking out of.
Seeing the two officers approach her, Korra protested, "Hold on, in my defense, they were about to hurt the old man. If I hadn't done anything, I would have let them get away with it."
Mr. Chung also protested, "Officer please. She saved my life, just let her off the hook, she was only doing what's right."
"Right or wrong, you're still coming with us." the captain said, he turned to his officer with a nod, and the latter brought out an extra pair of cuffs.
SNARL! A black blur thrashed the officer, sending him flying into the fountain's water. Naga stopped drinking and growled at the unwanted guest. It was the Lizard Inves that came out of the mysterious forest.
"What the...?!" the captain exclaimed as he brought out his gun to shoot the beast, but the Inves slapped it away and grabbed him by the throat with its left hand, "A monster...?" he choked out.
"Inves..." Korra muttered in shock to see it came out of nowhere, but her expression changed to concern to see the police officer being strangled by the monster, 'I gotta do something, but what?" she looked to the bat that Ping was using.
"Monster!" Mr. Chung screamed out before he ran inside his shop and everyone else fled the scene. He then called out to Korra, "Hurry! Come inside!" but Korra ignored his warning as she picked up the bat and gave a determined look.
As the Inves was ready to impale the choking officer with one of its clawed hands, Korra slammed the bat to its head. But it didn't even flinch, it simply turned its head to the brunette and released its grip on the officer. He laid on the ground and gasped for air, and the creature looked to the dark-skinned girl with irritation with a growl. Korra then whistled, much to the monster's confusion to why she just whistled.
ROAR! Naga roared and rammed into the Inves with her strength, making it her turn to send it flying and slammed into the lamp post where Ping crashed into. It laid there unconscious, but was bound to wake up soon.
Korra patted her friend's head, "Good girl." she said before running to the fountain to pull the officer out of the fountain, "Now let's help these guys inside the shop." Naga used her teeth to drag the lieutenant by the collar away in the shop where Mr. Chung opened the door and brought them in to treat them.
Behind a corner was Micchy, after he picked up his Lockseed and left the scene, he realized that he left his bags in front of the antique shop and went back. But when he got there, he saw the monster and brought out his phone to call Mai.
After a moment, the monster screeched and rose up, furious by the attack from before, it looked around while sniffing the air, trying to find the assailant.
Behind the counter are Korra, Naga, Mr. Chung, and the unconscious police officers, the three stuck their heads out to see that monster still out there and did something that surprised them. It opened its mouth gave a high-pitched screech, creating a sound wave from its mouth, hitting everything in sight with sparks flying out, the lamp post, the fountain, and the sign on the antique shop. The sound wave shattered the shop's window, door and some of the priceless antiques inside the shop, fine china, glasses on clocks, and etc. And the three got down, covered their ears to shield themselves from the sound it's making.
As soon as it died down, Mr. Chung asked, "Where did that thing come from?!" he was shocked to see such power from a creature that could make this much damage to his shop. Korra released her hands from her ears and looked to Naga, still placing her paws on top of her ears. Being part dog, she is sensitive to high-pitched sounds, and she petted her head in sympathy.
Korra looked up to see it still out there, and went back down when it's about to look in her direction.
"I don't know." she replied, "And I don't think I want to know."
Korra looked to her belt and Lockseed to see it stopped glowing after attacking the triad members, and to her pocket to see her purple fruit still glowing. She didn't know why, but she had a feeling that these, mainly the belt would help her in someway, somehow.
And just as something had hit her in the head, Korra remembered the portal that she and Naga went through that leads to the mysterious forest where she found the belt and Lockseeds and left. It was possible that this Inves followed the two and somehow got through before it closed up.
The question is, was it her fault that she brought the Inves to their world? She shook her head at that. No, this isn't the time to play the blame game, this is the time for action, and it will only be a matter of time until the monster find them in their hiding place.
With a determined look, she looked to Naga, who mirrored her expression with a growl and the two nodded.
"Wait, what are you-? Where are you going?" Mr. Chung asked as he saw her getting up and rode on Naga's saddle on her back.
"I'm going to lead it away from here." Korra said before she mushed the reigns on her dog, "Let's go Naga!" the polar bear dog barked in response and started running.
"Stop! Do you know what you're up against?!" Mr. Chung demanded, not moving from his hiding spot.
"Nope, not a clue." was her response and the two jumped out of the windowless window, getting the Inves' attention. Korra taunted, "Hey! Big black and ugly! You want us?! Then come and get us!" she mushed Naga and the two were galloping away, leading the Inves away from here.
But it did something else that Korra and Naga didn't expect it to do. It jumped with great strength and landed in front of the two, creating a crack on the ground, and blocked their path.
"Okay, I did not know it could do that." Korra commented in disbelief, and she got off her polar bear dog. The brunette readied her bat in her hands to fight the beast once more, "Let's do this Naga!" and they both charged at the creature.
Naga charged at the right side of the Lizard Inves to bite its right arm and used her strength to keep it from moving, making it snarl in pain. Her jaws were so strong that black liquid came out of its shoulder, which appears to be its blood. Korra began whacking its left side with her metal bat, it didn't do much damage considering the first time she hit it, but it was better than doing nothing. It was then it used its sonic wave screech at Korra and Naga at point-blank making the former dropped her bat and held her ears. The latter yelped by the sound wave and was forced to release her bite off of it, and she yelped even louder after it wrapped its tail around Naga's neck and flung her, sending her flying across town until she hit the ground, tumbling and sliding until she stopped. She laid there unconscious, possibly knocked out by after tumbling and sliding on the ground or by the high-pitched screech, point-blank. It could have been a little of both.
The Lizard Inves readied one of its claws to finish off Naga. After getting bit in the shoulder and bleeding from it, it wanted nothing more than to finish off the polar bear dog quickly. But the Inves didn't notice Korra running towards it, giving a battle cry, and whacked her bat real hard on its bleeding shoulder. It screeched in pain and clutched onto its wound, enraged, it turned and glared right at her and readied both of its clawed hands.
"Uh-oh." Korra muttered, realizing she made a huge mistake by hitting its wound and making it angry even more. She backed away a bit before it lunged at her and she jumped to her left before its hand made contact with her right leg, giving her a scratch.
"Aah!" she cried out in pain, rolled to the ground, and held onto her wound. Korra hissed in pain and struggled to get up, but the Inves kicked her by the shoulder, making her roll on her back. And it walked up to her and raised its leg to stomp on her, but...
BANG! A gunshot was heard and sparks flew out of the Inves' left side of its head, and many more by the barrage of bullets to its arm, leg, and stomach, staggering it until it fell to the ground. Korra looked to where the gunshots were fired from.
It was Chief Takatsukasa and two officers by her side holding guns in their hands and a shotgun was strapped on the former's back. The chief had received a phone call from Mitsuzane about a monster attacking, but she figured that it was just some Inves Game between Beat Rider teams or something. Well apparently she was wrong after hearing the screech it made earlier, she and her fellow officers followed it.
"So there really is an Inves attacking Town Square." Lin commented, putting her gun in her holster and approached the brunette to help her up while the two officers ran by her side, still aiming their guns towards the creature, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Korra answered, took her hand and got up. Naga woke up just in time to see the wound on Korra's leg, so she walked up to her side and licked her wound, hoping to heal it. This gesture made the brunette smile, "Thanks girl."
SCREECH! The three turned to the Inves rising up again, really angry as it screeched its sound wave once more, which was more powerful than the last one. The officers were ready to aim fire, but immediately dropped their guns, and cried while shielding their ears and fell to the ground, trying to shield off the sound from its powerful screech reaching their ears, but failed. Korra, Naga, and Lin too covered their ears as well and shut their eyes by the monster's attack.
Lin, still shielding her ears from the attack looked up to see it screeching, deciding to risk it she released her hands from her head and bring out her shotgun. Enduring the high-pitched screech piercing her ears, she gritted her teeth to concentrate, took aim, and spotted the wounded shoulder.
"Chew on this you freak." Lin declaring, aiming at the wound, and pulled the trigger. The shot hit the Lizard Inves' shoulder, and it was so powerful that sparks flew out and the pain was burning into its wound. It stopped screeching and gave a low screech in pain as it held onto its wound and fell on its back to the ground again.
"Bullseye..." Lin muttered out before she passed out and fell to the ground with the shotgun still in her hands.
Korra released her ears and opened her eyes to hear the screeching has stopped, and she turned to the police officers passed out on the ground. She looked up back at the Inves and to her disbelief, it got back up again. Seeing that there's no time to wake up the police squad to get up, she decided to risk it and picked up her bat from the ground to fight it once more.
Korra stepped forward and pointed her metal weapon towards the Inves, and the recovered Naga walked up by her side, ready to do the same, "Ready to do this girl?" she asked her loyal companion, and she barked in response.
It was then, Kouta and Mai arrived at the scene running down the streets leading to Town Square. After hearing the screech sound the Lizard Inves made, they followed it until they skid to a halt and hid behind a mailbox. From there, they saw the Lizard Inves in front of Korra and Naga, along with Chief Takatsukasa and her police officers down.
"Korra..." Kouta whispered in worry to see her facing an Inves with a metal bat. She doesn't stand a chance against the Inves with it alone even with Naga's help.
"There really is another Inves!" Mai exclaimed in shock and hid behind Kouta, to think that she would see two different kind of Inves in one day. And her face turned to concern to see her mother on the ground, "Mom...!"
Kouta then brought out his Orange Lockseed and looked to his Sengoku Driver, "Mai, I'll handle the Inves, and when I get its attention, go help your mom up and get out of here." Kouta instructed.
Mai nodded, "Okay."
Kouta ran up ahead and brought up his Lockseed, "Henshin!" he shouted and clicked it.
"Orange!"
Still running, the large metal orange sphere came out of the zipper portal and floated over his head. He inserted his Lockseed into his belt and locked it.
"Lock On!"
The belt played its Sengoku horn tune with techno music and Kouta sliced the Lockseed.
"Soiya!"
The orange dropped on his head and the blue bodysuit materialized over him and the orange sphere dropped and formed on him, transforming him into Armored Rider Gaim.
"Orange Arms! Hanamichi On Stage!"
From there, Gaim tossed his Daidaimaru from his right hand to his left and drew out his Musou Saber with his right. He loaded his Musou Saber and shot at the Inves, hitting on target with sparks flying out of its right side, and one of the shots hit its wounded shoulder.
"Leave her alone!" Gaim yelled as he slashed down the staggered Lizard Inves with both of his swords and sparks flew out of it.
Korra and Naga were taken aback, surprised by the armored rider's appearance.
Seeing Gaim keeping the Inves busy, this was Mai's chance to help her mother, "Mom!" she shouted as she ran up to her, got on her knees, placed her hands on her shoulders, and shook her a bit, "Mom, wake up."
Lin was stirred in her nap by her daughter's voice, "Mai-chan?" she asked as she slowly opened her eyes, "Why are you here?" while she is glad to see her daughter safe and sound, she shouldn't be here right now, what with the monster around terrorizing Town Square.
"Never mind that, let's get you out of here." Mai said as she lifted her mother up by the arm and draped it around her neck. But grew concerned when her mother gave a groan and clutched onto her head with her free hand, "Mom, are you okay?"
Her mother nodded, "I'm fine." Lin assured her, "Just a splitting headache." she couldn't remember the last time she had a headache, this painful.
Korra turned away from the fight, went over to the two Takatsukasas, and decided to help, "I'll help you." she said, offering her assistance as she draped the older woman's other arm around her neck.
Mai gave her a grateful nod, "Thank you."
"I can walk." Lin said softly, and the two girls let her go. She gained her balance a bit and stood up straight, but stumbled and was about to fall down, until Mai and Korra caught her with the former still clutching onto her head, "You shouldn't be here, you should hide somewhere that's safe."
"Well your safety comes first!" Mai barked and she and Korra draped her arms around their necks again. Naga walked up to them and laid down to help the chief of police rest on her as they placed her on the side of her.
Lin blinked slowly twice by her daughter's outburst before she chuckled under her breath, "Just like her mother." she said, relaxing on the left side of the polar bear dog.
Mai grew a tick mark on her head and snapped, "Don't compare me to you!" but it made her mother stifled a laugh, making Mai's tick mark grew larger, "And don't laugh!"
Korra, oblivious to the two argue, glanced at the battle between the armored samurai and the Inves.
Gaim and the Lizard Inves are exchanging each other's attacks, the rider blocked its vertical swipe with Daidaimaru and parried off the horizontal one with Musou Saber. The rider was about to cut horizontally across its stomach, but it dodged and brought its leg up to kick, but it was blocked by both weapons. Seeing the rider block its kick, the Inves brought its claws up and slashed him down with sparks flying out of his chest making him stagger. But he immediately recovered as he pulled the ring on his Musou Saber and shot at it with sparks flying out, staggering it in pain. It then turned to the girls, who are watching the battle and was about to attack them, but Gaim blocked its path by jumping in front of it with great strength and clashed his blades against its claws.
"If you want them, then you're gonna have to go through me." Gaim declared. But hat he didn't notice was that it used its tail to snake its way around Gaim's leg and trip him up to bring him down, flat on his back on the ground.
Korra blinked at the voice she heard from him under that mask. It couldn't be.
"Kouta!" Mai exclaimed in worry, to see him brought down by the Inves and grabbed its head and tried to push it back after it jumped on him and opened its mouth with sharp teeth. It's as if he's trying to keep a tiger-monkey from eating him.
Korra blinked again in surprise and asked, "Wait, that armored guy is Kouta?"
Mai's eyes snapped open and looked at the girl, "You know Kouta?" and got a nod in response.
"Yeah, we just met just yesterday." Korra responded.
"Kazuraba-kun?" Lin asked slowly, confused, seeing him wear samurai armor, "Where did he get that armor from?"
"It's from that belt and the Lockseed he's wearing." Mai commented, getting even more confused look from the older woman.
"What do you mean?" Lin asked.
Korra slowly understood at what she meant, and she looked to her belt to see it stopped glowing before she turned to the fight.
Back with the rider and the Inves, Gaim punched the lizard's face twice, staggering it a bit and pushed it off with his feet and it skidded to its feet. Gaim stood up slowly while panting and sweat pouring down on his face inside of his helmet. This wasn't like the fight against the Byakko Inves, in fact this thing was more tougher than that. But more to the point, he was tired from fighting the said Inves earlier.
'That fight with the Inves from earlier took a toll on me.' Gaim mentally noted before he turned to the girls, 'But if I don't keep this up, Mai, Korra, Naga, and Chief Taktsukasa will get hurt.'
The Lizard Inves jumped back onto its feet and charged at him with its left claw, but Gaim blocked it with Daidaimaru and blocked the other with the Musou Saber. And the rider was being pushed back by its strength, with his feet skidding until he pushed it back with his strength.
'I guess I better finish this early.' Gaim thought, he combined both of his blades again into his naginata and was about to unlock his Lockseed to put it in his porthole. But the Lizard Inves had other plans, it ran off to a lane, hoping to lead him somewhere, "Get back here!" and Gaim pursued chased.
Korra saw them running, she had a feeling that Kouta might be able to defeat the Inves after the damage it took. But she had a bad feeling that it might no doubt use that screech attack again, and her eyes widen in realization. He doesn't know.
"Naga, stay here and guard them." she ordered her polar bear dog and ran off.
"Hey, where are you going?!" Mai demanded, seeing Korra running back to where Kouta and the Inves are going. She was about to stop her, but her foot was caught by her mother's grip, and Mai glanced at her mother, still leaning her back on Naga and giving her a look of disapproval.
"Follow her, and you're grounded for life young lady." Chief Takatsukasa said in a stern tone. She maybe an over-caring mother and allow her daughter to do what she wants, but she would never allow her to follow the face of danger. And she still has some fight in her even when she's down.
"Ah, mou~!" Mai complained with a pout as she crossed her arms. It wasn't fair. So she sat down next to her, and leaned her back on Naga like a sofa. The polar bear dog then nuzzled the girl's face in comfort and Mai petted her head, "Even though you hardly know me, you get me."
As Mai petted Naga's head, she saw something at the corner of her eye and her eyes widen in shock. She saw someone lying on the floor unconscious around the corner. Micchy! "Micchy!" she shouted as she got up and ran to him, followed by her mother who just recovered and Naga.
Mai got down, picked him up in her arms, and shook him a bit, "Micchy, speak to me! Are you okay?" but she got no response. He was breathing, meaning that he's okay, but he was stirred up from his slumber and slowly opened his eyes to see Mai.
"Mai-san..." Micchy said in a slur before he fell asleep again.
'He's probably knocked out by the high-pitched screech attack from that Inves from earlier.' Lin noted mentally. That screech can probably put a city district to rest easily. "You stay with him, I'll go help my officers." Mai nodded and Lin went back to her officers.
And while Korra was running to help Kouta, she looked at her belt. After hearing what Mai said when Kouta got that armor on from his belt and Lockseed, maybe she can do the same from hers.
Zawame City's park
In the middle of a park, everyone was running away from the battle between Gaim and the Lizard Inves.
"Take this!" Kouta yelled as he slashed the Inves across the chest and send it slamming into a tree.
"Kouta!" Korra shouted and Gaim turned to her before he turned back to the recovered Inves.
"What are you doing here?! Get out of here!" Gaim demanded as he back flipped, dodging its swipe attacks and blocked both claws with his naginata.
"I forgot to tell you that you should watch out for its sonic wave screech!" Korra told him, confusing him.
"Huh?" Gaim asked, still locking horns on the Inves before it opened its mouth and the rider froze, realizing what she meant, "Uh-oh!"
It screeched point-blank at his face, making him scream in pain with his ears being pierced by its sound wave attack. He stepped back, dropped his weapon to shield his ears and screamed from the screeching sound wave. From there while it's still screeching, it slashed its claws onto Gaim's chest, and kicked him in the stomach to stagger him to make him fall on his back on the grass. The Inves didn't waste time as it ran over to the rider to stomp its foot on the his stomach and grind it like it was squishing a bug.
Seeing Kouta being overpowered by the Inves with its screech attack and foot on his chest, Korra had to do something. She found her solution as she spotted Gaim's naginata weapon right behind it and she ran over to it. And so the dark-skinned girl picked it up with both hands while enduring and ignoring the screech the Inves is making.
Just when its about to stomp on Gaim again, Korra yelled, "Leave him alone!" she charged at the monster and stabbed the weapon to the right side of its stomach. Its screech attack was interrupted as it snarled in pain right before Korra jumped and back flipped in time when it tried to hit her from behind.
Gaim, now recovered, kipped back up to his feet and ran to the creature, ramming it with his shoulder and it was shoved into the Park's pond.
"Get out of here! This is dangerous." Gaim said to her, "You should run while you have the chance." he slowly took a fighting stance to attack the Inves again.
"No way." Korra replied firmly, "I don't know why, but I'm not just gonna leave you here with this beast. After all, for some reason, I think it was my fault that I brought this thing back to our world."
"What?" Gaim asked in confusion, she brought it here from the portal?
"I brought it to this world, and I can either help you kill it, or send it back." Korra explained, "And I've already decided to help you out, you know."
Gaim was baffled, "What?! You can't just decide that!"
"I just did." Korra replied casually as she tossed back his weapon back to him, "And I can help you. Just look at what I'm wearing." she pointed to her belt with the Sunflower Lockseed still in it, surprising the rider.
"What? Why do you have one?!" Gaim demanded incredulously.
And then, it did something unexpected. It shone like light blinding them both and they both shielded their eyes from the light. After the light died down, it transformed from an ancient relic to a brand new modernized version of the Sengoku Driver like Gaim's. It was no longer made out of stone, it has no moss to it, no small cracks, no rust on the knife-like lever, and the blank side of her belt no longer has a slash mark on it. Instead, it was replaced with a faceplate on it, an armored face with an aqua blue wolf-like helmet with white linings and a ponytail, a steel mouthpiece, and a white visor. But unlike with the rider's belt, its color is blue and had white linings instead of black and yellow linings. (9)
Gaim was shocked to see it transformed, "That's...!"
'Okay, now I really didn't see that one coming!' Korra thought in both shock and awe, still couldn't comprehend at what just happened. And what really caught her eye was that the Sunflower Lockseed that was in the porthole was no longer there. It was just gone. It was almost as if the belt wanted her to use the Lockseeds and place it in the porthole, and the Lockseed had fulfilled its purpose and restored the Sengoku Driver back to its original state.
But they were interrupted when the Inves rose up from the water and it charged at Gaim before he raised his naginata weapon to block both of its claws.
"Never mind! Just leave! I can handle this thing on my own!" Gaim ordered and he blocked both of its swipe attacks once more and pushed it back before slashing it down it chest.
"What?" Korra asked indignantly, irritated by what he's saying. Are you kidding me? She came here to save him, and now he wants her to leave just like that? Screw that! She came here to help him, and that's what she's going to do. She had to take responsibility into her own hands after all.
As if he read her mind, Gaim continued, "Don't worry! Even if you did bring it back to our world, it's not like you brought it here on purpose. I'll be fine, so just go!" he kicked it before he was slashed in the arm.
Korra looked enraged, "No!" she retorted snappishly, "All my life, I have been taken care of the people I care about and have them tell me what I should and shouldn't do. Because of it, I can't make decisions on my own." she pulled out the premature Lockseed and it changed into a blue watermelon Lockseed, with the imprint 'LS-WATER' on it. It was now known as the Water Lockseed, "Well no more! I don't want anyone to clean up my mess or fight my own battles." she remembered the times when she first bumped into him and when he repaid her back with that rice ball even though Naga ate it. But it's the thought that counts.
"You're a good person Kouta, and you don't have to fight alone anymore! There are some fights that need to be fought and taken care of not alone!" Korra yelled as she held up her Water Lockseed, "Henshin!" she shouted and unlocked it.
"Water!"
Like with Gaim, a large zipper portal appeared above her head and opened up, revealing a metal watermelon which was strangely sapphire blue with metal studs on it. And there seems to be three lines of water snaking around it, making it look like an atom. Korra plugged her Blue Watermelon Lockseed into her driver and locked it.
"Lock On!"
It played a tribunal drums sound along with an upbeat whimsical flute going along with the tune. (10) She slowly took a Tai Chi stance as she motioned her arms spreading out, leaned forward, right knee bent, left leg stretching away from her right, and she circled her arms halfway to form a circle before she brought down her right arm and slapped the knife-like lever to slice her Lockseed. The inside of her sliced Water Lockseed was white with watermelon seeds in it, and there's a picture of an Inuit spear with a sliced white watermelon with bandages wrapped around the bottom of the fruit.
"Element!"
Korra stood up straight with her arms still spread out as the sapphire watermelon fell on her head with the water surrounding it was splashed on her body. A light blue bodysuit with white linings materialized on her body. And a gauntlet with a porthole for Lockseeds was on her left arm. Energy surged out of from the sapphire fruit and to her body and coated her a sky blue kimono-like tunic armor.
"Water Arms! Element of Change!"
Korra glanced around inside the fruit before a helmet formed around her head, with two gray compound eyes visor, a ponytail, and a silver mouthpiece. A sapphire wolf-like helmet landed on her head and her visors changed from gray to white. The sapphire watermelon then dropped and formed, with the sides brought down in the form of shoulder pads and chest armor, making it looked like an Eskimo coat, only with short sleeves but no hoodie. And she wields the weapon from the picture of her Lockseed. Korra Nozomi is now Kamen Rider Avatar or Armored Rider Avatar, she wields the Mizuspear (7) and the Bending Gauntlet, (8) and she can use the element water.
Avatar looked down at her herself, "Whoa, that was kinda cool." she commented before she looking back at Gaim standing there while gawking in shocking disbelief to see her transform like he did. And the watermelon rider composed herself, "So, you want my help now?" she asked as she spun her spear once and tapped the bottom to the ground.
"I don't believe it." Gaim said in shock to himself before he ducked in time when the Lizard Inves tried to sneak attack on him, and it bit him on the shoulder, "Ow! Ow! Ow! Hey, let go!"
"Hey, leave him alone!" Avatar yelled as she charged at the Inves to stab and slash at, making it let go and stumble backwards, staggering it in pain. She then jumped up high to threw her spear like a javelin at its head, and as it made contact, sparks fly about. And she dove in, extending her leg to a flying side kick and kicked the Inves, sending it flying and until it tumbled and sliding on the grass.
"Wow." Gaim said in awe to see her beat the Inves with such skills, and despite knowing her for a short time, he can tell that she's a great fighter.
Avatar ran to pick up her Mizuspear and ran back up to orange rider again after dealing with the Inves for a short while, "So I'll ask again, you want my help now?" she asked in a friendly tone and held out her hand to seal the deal. After seeing what she can do, he's gotta let her help.
Gaim nodded, "Alright, you can help." he said, and he shook her hand, "Let's get along."
Avatar nodded back, "Of course. Of course."she replied with the first 'Of course.' in English.
It didn't take long for the Lizard Inves to recover as it stood up, now furious as it growled and glared at the two riders with fury.
"Oh, look who's back." Avatar said casually in amusement.
"Yeah." Gaim said mirroring her tone, not worried. With the two of them, they can defeat the Lizard Inves easily. Although they might want to think twice on that as it opened its mouth to use its sonic wave screech again.
"Oh no you don't!" Avatar exclaimed as she threw her spear at its mouth where sparks flew out, making it cried and growled in pain and stepped back, "I am sick and tired of those sonic wave screech attacks!"
Gaim gave a battlecry and charged ahead at the Inves to slash it across the chest with his nagitana, pulled the Mizuspear out of its mouth, and tossed it back to Avatar as she ran by his side.
They both stood there for a moment, and in unison, Gaim and Avatar both slashed their weapons in the air vertically and horizontally, thrust them forward, spun them like windmills from left to right, and slammed them to the ground, trying to intimidate the Inves.
"Let's do this." Gaim declared.
"Right behind you." Avatar followed.
And they both charged at the Lizard Inves again with battlecries, and it got up again before it was slashed down by their weapons once more. Gaim was the first to slash it across its stomach followed by Avatar who slashed its chest. But it was ready to fight back as it swatted away the orange rider's incoming attack and scratched him across the chest, kicked away Avatar's low slash attack and used its tail to pull away her spear along with her and slammed her to the ground.
"Oh wow, that kinda smarts." Avatar groaned painfully and got up slowly using her spear to pick herself up as support.
"Korra! Are you okay?" Gaim asked in concern and helped her up.
"I'm fine." Korra said before she charged at the Inves again, "But he won't be!" she thrust her spear at the monster, but it dodged the attack and slashed her in the arm and chest, and kicked her making her stumble back.
The Inves then used its tail again to tie up Gaim and slammed him into one tree and to another. But it didn't expect Avatar to jump on its back to punch it in the head three times before it released Gaim and threw Korra off its back with the riders fall to the ground.
Both riders slowly got up and dropped their weapons aside and balled their fists to use hand to hand combat against the Lizard Inves. Gaim was the first to strike as he punched it to the face and Avatar jumped and kicked its back. And in unison again, they both simultaneously kicked it in the stomach and punched it in the face sending it to fly and crash to the ground again.
"Let's finish this." Gaim said and got a nod in response from Avatar, he placed his hand on the knife-like lever on his belt with Avatar following him. And they both pushed the levers once.
"Soiya/Element!"
"Orange/Water Squash!"
"The finisher!" Avatar yelled as she and Gaim both jumped up and flipped in the air, and they both simultaneously extended their legs into flying side kicks with water and energy surging throughout the water rider's kick and orange energy flowing in the orange rider's.
"Seiha!" Gaim yelled, the two kicked through the Lizard Inves in the chest with one half an orange and a half blue watermelon surrounding it. And electricity flowed throughout the monster, fell to the ground and exploded, with orange and white watermelon slices flying about from the creature.
The two riders did not look back as they folded up their Lockseed slices and changed back to Kouta and Korra. The former was panting softly and has some bruises and fatigue on his face, no doubt from fighting two Inves in one day, but had some help with the second one from Korra. And he turned to the dark-skinned girl, who looked at him, both have mirrored smiles on their faces.
"Yeah! Whoo!" Korra cheered in English and raised her arms, "We did it!"
"Yosha!" Kouta cheered in his native language and draped his arm around her neck, "We did it Korra! We did it!"
Korra did the same, "We sure did Kouta!"
Their celebration ended early however as they both looked at each other, they blushed as they realized in what they're doing, and they both let go. There was another awkward moment between the two, but they put that situation aside and shook their hands.
"Thank you for helping me and saving my life back there Korra." Kouta said to her with a grateful smile.
"Hey, I'm just glad I could help." Korra answered and smiled back.
As they let go, Kouta said, "Let's go back to the others."
Korra nodded, "Yeah, they're probably worried about us by now. Especially Naga." and the two ran off to where the others are.
As they ran, Korra brought out her Water Lockseed from her belt to look at it in fascination, 'Hmm, you know, I think this may have given me a purpose in life.' she thought, remembering when she transformed into her armored form. It was pretty cool.
Mysterious Forest
Back with Zangetsu and Shin, they were at the location of the forest to where Korra and Naga were after they found the ancient Sengoku Driver. The spy looked at the dug up hole in shock and disbelief. From reading the scene and understanding what's going on, it appears that Shin stole the Sengoku Driver from them and he hid it in the dirt where no one can find it. And now it's gone.
Zangetsu pointed his Musou Saber to Shin's face, "You lied to us." he said in a cold tone.
"No! I-I swear, it was here when I buried it!" Shin said and stepped back when Zangetsu stepped forward, "You have to believe me! I buried it right around here from last ni-!"
SLAM! The spy was interrupted after the rider slammed the hilt of his sword to his stomach after he spun it, and he doubled over in pain and fell to the ground. Shin coughed and groaned in pain as he laid there, the pain was much worst than being shot in the arm.
"That was our only belt." Zangetsu stated in a threatening matter and he spun his sword back to point the blade back to his face, "The only source to help us produce the Sengoku Drivers Yggdrasil can make. The only thing that mankind needs when-" he was interrupted when a phone rang, and the rider turned to one of the foot soldiers who picked up his phone. The soldier rushed to Zangetsu's side and placed it near his head to where his ear might be.
"What is it now Ryoma?" Zangetsu asked impatiently, he hated being interrupted in the middle of work.
"I believe our employee Kinoaki-san is telling the truth." a calm voice called Ryoma said through the phone.
Zangetsu paused when he heard that, "What?" he asked, it was hard to tell what his expression is under his mask.
"I said he's telling the truth, it's no longer with him." Ryoma continued, "One of our cameras have picked up a young lady riding on a polar bear dog with the belt around her waist."
Zangetsu stiffened for a second before he composed himself and turned to Shin, "I see, then we need to retrieve it as soon as possible. Who knows what she'll do with it."
"No need to rush it." Ryoma said, unconcerned about the belt being taken, "Take all the time you need, she might be an excellent test subject along with the other one who just recently came in this afternoon."
"Either way, that belt is coming off of her, even if I have to rip it off from her cold dead body." Zangetsu declared in his cold tone, and the soldier ended the call.
"Sir, what do we do with him?" another foot soldier asked, gesturing to Shin.
Zangetsu slowly turned his head to the spy and ordered, "Lock him up."
"What?!" Shin exclaimed in shock before two soldiers quickly grabbed him by the arms, "No! Please! Wait!"
"He knows too much, and he should be lucky that we're letting him live until we decide what to do with him. No one can know about this forest, not our employees or anyone outside of Yggdrasil." he walked away before he thought, 'Not even my little brother. Not yet at least.' he turned back to his troops, "If he runs, don't hesitate to shoot him." and he walked off
"Yes sir!" the soldiers responded with a salute, and they all escorted him through the forest.
"Please! Let me go! I-I can help! I can track down whoever took the belt, and-!" Shin didn't finish as he was doubled over twice by one of the soldier's end of the gun in the face and the other in the gut, knocking him unconscious.
"Just stay quiet until we bring you to your new home." one suggested, and they dragged him to where he will be held somewhere in Yggdrasil. It seems to be that there's more to Korra's belt than meets the eye.
Next time on Kamen Rider Gaim/Avatar
Chapter 3: Deadly! Pineapple Kick!
"Beware, for you are taking a part of destiny in your hands." 'Mai' spoke to Korra.
"I brought a guest!" Kouta said, introducing Korra to her sister.
"Neechan, I've transformed!" Kouta said excitedly.
"In the end, the only thing you can rely on is strength alone." Kaito stated coldly.
'If I use it to protect everyone, then I'm sure...'
"Pine Arms! Funsai Destroy!" Gaim is now in Pine Arms form.
Well what do you think? Pretty neat huh? I've decided to put the relationship between Kouta and Korra like Luffy and Zoro at first before they fall in love. For Naga, I've decided to let her help with Korra against the Inves, I mean she is pretty strong you know. And I know it seems kinda unfair for Korra to fight dirty against Qiáng, but he's bigger than her and she doesn't know bending in this story. And what is Zangetsu up to? Anyway, I'm sorry to have kept you all waiting, but it's here isn't it? And like I said, I'm going to focus on my first story and study for exams next week. Ciao!
