2. Cast Off!

Episode 2: Cast Off! The True Power of Reaper Revealed!

OPENING: ALIVE A LIFE (RYUKI OPENING), since my first OP is exactly the same as my other fic's, Kamen Rider Zelda.

"Thanks for accompanying me to the DMV, Sock," Sam said as the friends enters the DMV. "Yeah, besides I have nothing to do today. Work's all been tough," Sock said. Shortly they've reached the middle part of the DMV building. "All we need to do is to search for this lady. Gladys," Sam said as he opens the paper the Devil had given to him yesterday. "Damn, she's completely not one of the hottest ladies around," Sock said as he saw the photo, which was included to the paper. The photo shows a red-headed woman, around 50 years old or something, with several wrinkles on her forehead. Her lips were bloody red.

"I think that's her," Sam said as they saw the woman from the photo serving customers. "Thank you for having your license renewed," the woman said as she shook hands with her latest customer. Sam and Sock enters the line and no soon enough, they've reached the woman. "How can I help you, boys?" the woman asked. "She's uglier in real life than in the photo," Sock whispered to Sam. "Shut up," Sam whispered to his friend. "Are you Gladys?" Sam asked. The woman nodded. "Good, we need to give you this," Sam said as he puts the Reaper Transformer on the table. "Oh no. You're the one. You're the one that the Devil himself chooses," Gladys mumbled under her breath as she saw the Transformer walking towards her (I'm giving the Reaper Transformer and the other Rider Transformers in the fanfic the capable of moving, just like Kabuto's Zecters). "I'm sorry, why are you frightened?" Sam asked. "Nothing, really, nothing. Just let the Transformer to my table and I'll prepare the portal," Gladys said. She took out a metal tube, and opens the lid. The Transformer crept there and regurgitates the Inferno Soul contained yesterday into the tube. Quickly, the Transformer crept back and Gladys closes it. "Pleasure doing business with you," Gladys said, smiling, before turning back.

As Sam and Sock left the counter, two men in black attire, their faces are concealed within their low perched hats, sees the two guys leaving the DMV. "Is that the Devil's newest bounty hunter?" one of the man asked. "It seems so. But, his powers are nothing compared to us HellRiders!" the other man said. Both of them laughed evilly.

At work, Sam is watching over the LCD TVs when suddenly one by one the TVs went wild, the screens bleeped and turn static. As Sam walked around the corridor, he suddenly founds himself in a warehouse full of used electronics. "You like 'em?" a voice sounded from the pile of broken computers. Sam turns around, to found the Devil walking towards him. "What now?" Sam asked, impatient. "There's a storm brewing in Seattle," the Devil says. "A weather controlling soul?" Sam asked again. "No, not that storm. An electrical storm. Your escaped soul today is an electrical salesman who is a bit smart in swindling his customers," the Devil said as he gives Sam the escaped soul file. "Hardy Arkinson, a man who sells new-looking broken electronics in 1975. The electronics caused a chain of fires in the Northern Seaboard and claimed 4 lives," Sam read the file, and before he knew it, he was back on The Work Bench, in a middle of a cash-out line.

"Mr. Oliver!" Ted's voice booms over the cash register area, "Get back to work!" he shouted again, which causes Sam to literally put the file inside his pants and ran towards his work station. "Damn, maybe I should read it during my break time," Sam said as he watches over the LCD TVs again.

At the same time, a rather fat man wearing a white, striped suit, and also an old-fashioned brown hat, approaches a customer at a local flea market. "What can I get you?" the man asked. The customer sighs, and said, "I'm looking for a used PlayStation 3. Do you have one?" The man smiles, and puts one of his hands inside his sleeve, pulling out a shining, brand new PlayStation 3. "Is this what you want?" the man asked again. The customer's eyes began to widen, as he saw the console. "A new one?" the customer asked. "Yes, and it's only for 4 dollars and 23 cents," the man said. Reaching to his wallet, the customer quickly whips out 5 dollars. The man gives the customer the change, and the customer, satisfied that he's gotten a next generation console for a cheap price, grabs the console with his hands. But, after the console is in the possession of the customer, the device started to beep to life, its CD player began to open and close the lid like it was a mouth. The controllers spring out of their casings and constrict the customer's arms and legs, as the device, along with the cables behind it, floats in the air, the power light beeping in an evil red color. The fat salesman laughed, and electrical current began to appear all over his body, turning him into a Soul, a Swindletron Soul to be exact. This Soul is robotic, with jumbled electronics as the legs, an enlarged computer chip protects the chest area, which are composed as a jumbled bunch of wires, with some monitors coming out of the sides and one stuck to the chip, each showing a red colored screen. The creature's left arm is a tentacle formed by jumbled wires, and the right arm is a machine gun. The head was just basically a computer monitor, with the same red color on the screen, with words similar to the Blue Screen of Death on computers, except in the end there's the words "GO TO HELL."

The restrained customer couldn't do anything as the PlayStation 3 device fired a powerful electric current from the mouth, killing the poor man. The PlayStation 3, along with the cables and the controllers, went back into the Swindletron Soul's chest part, which opened like a mouth and consumes the electronics. Laughing in a monotone laugh, the Swindletron Soul summons jolts of electricity from his body towards everyone at the flea market, killing them instantly. But, just as the Swindletron Soul finishes off his last victim, a man in black attire with a hat hiding his face came towards him. "Hardy Arkinson, time to go back to Hell," the man said, picking up a black and red praying mantis-like device, with the same three illuminating buttons on the body, from his pocket. "HENSHIN!" the man shouted, placing the praying mantis on his waist, forming a belt buckle. He then taps the three buttons on the belt buckle with his right hand. "CHANGE MANTIS!" the device exclaimed, and from the red, yellow, and green lights on its body, a projection that looks like a card with a picture of a praying mantis on it, with flames on the background, appears. The man runs towards the projection, and comes out in a black and red suit of armor, the projection disappears behind him. The armor looks just like Kamen Rider Chalice, only the head design has a Venom-shaped visor, colored blazing red. The color is predominantly black, and red flames adorn the chest part, with a symbol of a shield with a praying mantis on it with two swords coming out from the top and bottom of the shield, one each side, on the middle of the chest. More black and red coloration adorn the arms and legs, the red parts glowed in sequence like blood through blood vessels. The eyes glowed red as the armor came to life. The man in black had transformed into a Kamen Rider. The Rider pulls out his sword from a holster in the side, a black and red crooked sword with carvings of various praying mantises on it. "YEAAAAH!" the Rider shouted as he jumped and slams the sword on the Swindletron Soul.

"Damn it, bitch! Who are you?" the Swindletron Soul asked. "I am Kamen Rider SwordMantis, a HellRider who's going to send you back to where you came from!" the Rider exclaimed his name, before using his sword to tear through the Swindletron Soul. SwordMantis, just as his name suggested, is skillful when it came to sword and close combat fights, countering every move made by the lumbering Soul. The creature can only retaliate by firing electric bolts from his tentacles and firing CDs from the chest part. SwordMantis uses a kick to bring the Soul down, before tearing the creature apart with his sword. But the Soul manages to fire miniature tentacles from his body which binds and electrocutes the Rider on his chest, as the Swindletron Soul gets up. Using his machine gun arm to fire at SwordMantis, the Soul tries to predict every move that his opponent made, but SwordMantis is just too fast, and soon is behind him, slashing his sword. The Soul fell down to the ground in a loud thud. "Pathetic. You could fight better," SwordMantis taunted, as he plugs out the USB device from the praying mantis-like device, and plugs it in on the sword's handle. SwordMantis then places the sword back on its holster, energy and light spreads from the USB towards the end of the holster. An indicator on the holster's front indicates the energy gathering. As the Rider pulls out his sword, the sword is now covered in hellish flames. SwordMantis plugs the USB device out from the sword's handle and back into the praying mantis-like device, before with a quick tap taps the three lights with his left hand, the sword in his right hand. He then prepares for the attack, squat his legs so he could get enough energy to make a strong dash. The lights on the praying mantis device beeped, and created five projections, each with the picture of Hell's fire on the projections. "ROYAL SLASHER FIVE," the device said as the projections had completed their appearances. SwordMantis makes a run for it and goes through the projections, getting faster each time he passed from a projection into another. As he arrives on the final projection, he prepares the sword for impact. "SLASH!" SwordMantis exclaimed and slashes through the Soul. A blinding bright light appears as the sword touches the Swindletron Soul's armor. As the light disappears, SwordMantis is already behind the Swindletron Soul, the Soul's body sparked with electricity as a huge explosion engulfs the fiend's body. As the dust settles, SwordMantis turns around to find a pile of electronics on the ground, but the computer monitor that is the Soul's head still intact, and still alive.

"You think you can beat me that easily?" the Swindletron Soul said, and reforms himself, this time assuming a new form. A much slimmer Rider-like being. At a glance, we might think him as silver Riser Shirogane from Justirisers. But on his face, a round, red eye is present, and on the chest, an LCD computer monitor is seen, showing the same text as the first form of the Swindletron Soul showed. The left arm is still a tentacle, and the right arm is still a machine gun. "Prepare to see my full power," the Swindletron Soul said, as the monitor on his chest lit up. Particles charged on the machine gun, as the Swindletron Soul changes his machine gun into particle cannon, before firing a red beam of pure particles and electricity from the weapon. The lethal beam hits the exhausted SwordMantis easily, throwing him hundreds of feet away. "Amateur," the Swindletron Soul snorted as he disappears in a lightning bolt.

SwordMantis lands in a thud, and transforms back into human form as the praying mantis-like device fell out of the belt. "Damn it," the man muttered. "He got away!"

Back at The Work Bench… "Sam, there's a guy who wants to see you," Benji said as Sam cleans the floor in front of the LCD TVs. A small child had just vomited there, and Sam must clean it all up. "Who?" Sam asked. "Some Chinese dude that brought the same box from a few days ago," Benji said. "What box?" Sam asked again. "The box that turned you into a big time hero," Benji, annoyed by Sam's constant asking, pushes him to the main entrance. There he saw a Chinese man who resembles Bruce Lee, wearing nothing but black trainings. The box in question is besides him, and the man puts it on the information desk. "The Devil sent me here to train you," the Chinese man said. "Call me Lang," he said again. "Okay…Lang," Sam said, "We shouldn't fight inside the store. Let's do it on the loading dock. My friend Sock will be the referee." "If that is what you wish," Lang said and grabs Sam by the neck, and both of them moved in the speeds of sound to the loading dock, and didn't forget to pick up Sock on the way.

"Okay, guys, here's the rules. No destroying the boxes, any firepower, just pure physical fighting, okay?" Sock said. Both Lang and Sam nodded. "Time to finish this quick," Sam said, pulling out the Reaper Transformer and places it on his belt. "HENSHIN!" Sam shouted after he taps the three buttons, and he transforms into Kamen Rider Reaper in his Save Mode. Lang moves forward and applies a kung-fu kick. The kung-fu kick easily topples the usually tough Reaper Save Mode, and Lang came forward and gave the Rider a beating of a lifetime. "Hey, this is unfair, how come you move so fast and I'm so slow," Sam complains. "Because, you haven't found the secret of Cast Off," Lang said as his roundhouse kick topples Reaper yet again. "Can you tell me the secret of Cast Off?" Sam asked as his punches were easily anticipated by Lang. "Of course not, stupid slacker! You must find that by yourself," Lang teased, as he kicked Reaper on the head. "Oh yeah? How dare you call me stupid?" Sam shouted in anger, as he pushes Lang aside, before sending several kicks on the man's ribs. Suddenly, some kind of force drives Sam to grab the pinchers of his Reaper Transformer, and opens it, placing the pinchers on each side of the device. "CAST OFF!" Without warning, Sam said the magic words. "Wait, what did I say?" Sam asked to himself as his conscious went back inside him again. "CHANGE REAPER!" the device shouted, and energy began to surge through the black pipes, blowing off the armor, revealing a Kuuga-like warrior. The color of the warrior is blazing red, with the head and body design similar to Kamen Rider Kuuga, only the pinchers on the head are designed like Kamen Rider Gattack's, only shorter and more demonic. The eyes are red like fire, and gold lines adorn his body. The three tubes on his right arm are now a bit smaller, and there are also three tubes on his right shin. This is Kamen Rider Reaper in his Standard Mode, his basic form of fighting.

Reaper charges forward and performs a kick on Lang, which sends him flying. Running towards the fallen man, Reaper grabs his head and bashes it on a nearby girdle. Pulling Lang behind, Reaper applied a flurry of punches, which brought down the man. He then uses several kicks on the man's head, before using a bicycle kick to knock Lang down. "The finisher!" Sam exclaimed. He took out the USB device and plugs it into the three tubes on his right shin. Reaper then taps all three buttons, and the device starts to charge energy as the lights on the USB flashed in sequence. "RIDER KICK!" Sam shouted, and the device exclaimed, "REAPER KICK, SET UP!" Reaper ran towards the weakened Lang, red light appeared from under his right leg. The Rider then jumped, and assumes a Rider Kick position, with the right kick as usual as the kicking leg. Lang couldn't do anything as the kick hits his chest, a stream of hellish flames coming out of the three tubes and throws him into the wall, creating a large hole in it. Reaper then pulls out the USB device and puts it inside the Reaper Transformer, and pulls it out from the belt buckle, transforming back into Sam. "That was a good kick," Lang said in a weak tone after Sam helped him back to his feet. "Your training is officially over. You can pick up your vessel at the information desk," Lang said before he dissolves into dust.

"Vessel?" Sam asked. "C'mon, that sounds awesome. Let's go to the information desk," Sock said, pulling Sam's arm with him. In the information desk, Sam and Sock saw the wooden box. "Lasciate ogni speranza, voi ch'entrate," Sam reads the encryption on the box aloud. "What the hell is that mean?" Sam asked Sock. "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here," Sock answered. Sam gave him a weird stare. "What? I've read the Dante's Inferno, that's the only book I've read," Sock said. Sam opens the box. White smoke came out of the box, and after the smoke clears up, they saw a small truck with a remote control on it's right, and a note on it's left. Sam picked up the note and read it. "Congratulations! You've received your first vessel. With this device you don't need your Reaper Transformer to contain your soul. You can also incorporate these vessels as the part of your Reaper weaponry. From the Devil," Sam said as he reads the note. "How the hell a RC Truck will bring down a Soul?" Sock asked. Sam suddenly sees thunderstorms heading towards the area. Electronics began to act weird as the thunderstorms gets stronger. "I guess we should try it now. Call Benji and meet me outside," Sam said.

Sam walked outside, Reaper Transformer in hand. He saw the Swindletron Soul closing in into the area, on a rampage. Sock and Benji catch up to him. "That's our Soul?" Benji asked. "He looks like a fellow Rider to me," Sock said. "Let's finish him off," Sam said, putting the Reaper Transformer in his waist. "HENSHIN!" Sam shouted, and in a flash he transforms into Kamen Rider Reaper. Reaper then places the Transformer's pinchers on the device's sides, with Sam having no control over it. "CAST OFF!" he unknowingly shouted. "CHANGE REAPER!" the device exclaims and Reaper transforms into his Standard Mode. Reaper runs towards the Soul, and kicks him really hard that the fiend loses his balance. "Damn it!" the Soul shouted as he saw Reaper. "I'm not going back to that hell-hole!" he shouted as he charges towards Reaper. "Hey, isn't Hell a hell-hole? Get it? A hell-hole?" Sam said sarcastically as he kicks the Soul's charging chest.

"You'll pay for that!" the Swindletron Soul shouted as he choked Reaper with his tentacle, and electrocutes him, before firing a round of his machine gun. The Rider was knocked down. The Swindletron Soul then stomps on the poor Rider several times, before firing his machine gun again. Reaper tried to punch the Soul's single orb, but was instead electrocuted in contact. The Swindletron Soul transforms his machine gun into particle cannon, and fired a beam which knocks Reaper back. The fiend finally wraps Reaper's left arm with his tentacle, and swings him around, before slamming it into the ground, forcing the Rider to turn back into an injured Sam. "Amateur," the Soul said as he walked away along with his storm.

"Damn it…." Sam writhes in pain as Sock and Benji came to him. "Are you alright?" Benji asked as the men helped Sam to stand. "My left arm… I think it's injured," Sam said. Suddenly his cell phone beeped. Sock picked it up. "Aw, and my mom wants me at her house. How should I explain this?" Sam moaned in pain. "Don't worry, we'll find you a bandage," Benji said. "And something to cover up your tracks," Sock said.

"Kyle, where is your older brother?" a blonde, middle-aged woman asked a teenage boy, with spiky blonde hair. Kyle then saw three men walking towards the house. "There they are, Mom! And why's Sam's arm is bandaged?" Kyle asked. "I don't know," the woman, Sam and Kyle's mother, said.

The boys arrived on Sam's parents' house. "What's wrong with you?" Sam's mother asked. "Plumbing accident," Sam said, "So, what is it that is so important?" "Your father and I decided to buy you and your pals a Toyota Prius," Sam's mother said. "Yeah, bro, that would totally replace that old Honda motorcycle of yours," Kyle said. "A hybrid, eh?" Sock asks himself, in his mind he would use the Prius to take girls out around Seattle. "A hybrid, eh?" Benji asks himself, in his mind he would use the Prius for a road trip back to Mexico. Seeing his friends' "happy" expressions, Sam felt something disturbing his heart. "Mom, could we talk inside?" Sam said. His mom nodded. Both of them enter the house while Kyle gloats about the car to Sock and Benji.

"So you've got your wound from working with the Devil?" Sam's mom asked. "Yeah, dad said that you and he sold my soul before I was born. Is that true?" Sam asked. "Your father has a severe prostate cancer. In order to cure him, we had to sell your soul to the Devil. We tried not to have sex, but the doctor said that withholding sex too long might cause infertility, and we had one. And you came along. Apparently the Devil uses the doctor as an excuse for us to have sex," Sam's mother told the whole story. Sam nodded. "Will you not tell Kyle about this?" Sam pleaded to his mother. "Of course, dear," Sam's mother said. Suddenly the sky turned black and several lightning appeared from the sky. "Mom, do you have rubber spandex suits?" Sam asked.

"Hey, guys, I've got it," Sam said as he gives the spandex suits to the guys, after he told Kyle to run inside the house. "This Soul's attack uses electrical properties, right? So, if we use these rubber suits, we wouldn't get shocked!" Sam said. "Good idea!" Sock said as he pats his friend's shoulder. Shortly afterwards, the three friends were hiding near a wall, as they saw the Swindletron Soul destroys the neighborhood with his thunder strikes. "You two lure the creature here and I'll finish it," Sam said to his two friends. "Are you sure?" Sock asked, but Sam gave him a menacing stare, and soon he and Benji ran towards the Soul.

"You seem to turn your friends into human shields," the Devil said as he suddenly appears next to Sam. "You scared?" he asked. Sam nodded weakly. "Since that fight against Lang…I couldn't seem to control my armor during Cast Off, and I'm afraid that the armor will take control of me," Sam said. "That's preposterous," the Devil said. "The armor is what you are, what you is. The armor is you, Sam. Use it to bring that ugly bastard back to Hell," the Devil said, and he disappears. Sam got up, grabbing his Reaper Transformer. The device flies towards Sam's waist, and turns itself into a belt buckle. Sam quickly taps all three buttons. "HENSHIN!" he shouted. Sam transforms into Kamen Rider Reaper. "CAST OFF!" Sam said as he turns the pinchers on the Transformer to the device's sides, this time with himself taking over the operation. "CHANGE REAPER!" the device shouted as the armor broke off, revealing Reaper in his Standard Mode.

(Insert Song: TETRA-FANG - Destiny's Play)

Reaper jumps over the shoulders of his friends, and drop kicked the Soul, before punching his chest several times. A roundhouse kick completes the beat down. "Sam! You've return to your fiery self!" Sock said. Reaper lifts the Swindletron Soul and slams him to the ground, before stomping on his chest several times. The Soul tries his tentacle, but Reaper kicked the being to the air, and once again drop kick him back to the ground, with a loud thud. Behind a nearby tree, the same man in black from before saw the fight. He grabs the praying mantis-like device again and places it in his belt buckle before tapping all three buttons. "HENSHIN," the man said. "CHANGE MANTIS!" the device exclaimed as it creates the SwordMantis projection, with the man running through it again, transforming into Kamen Rider SwordMantis. "You've stolen the job of the HellRiders," SwordMantis said as he pushes Reaper out of the way, and slashes his sword on the fiend's chest.

"Who's that?" Sock asked. "Beats me," Benji replied as the two saw SwordMantis attacking the Swindletron Soul with no mercy, pushing Reaper out of the way every time he wants to attack. "You bitch!" the Soul exclaimed, before pushing SwordMantis, allowing Reaper to kick his head once again. Reaper then pushes the Soul to the ground and swings him around his head, and throws it unintentionally at SwordMantis. The Rider responds by using his sword to slice and dice the airborne Soul. Reaper tries to attack again, but SwordMantis pushes him again, before bashing the Soul even more, causing it to emit heavy electricity. The Swindletron Soul fires his machine gun, which downs SwordMantis, allowing Reaper to take charge again; kicking the Soul around before with a solid punch broke the single red orb on the fiend's face. "Time to go to Hell," Sam said as Reaper plugs the USB device on the tubes on his right shin. "RIDER KICK!" Sam exclaims. "REAPER KICK, SET UP!" the device shouted as Reaper runs forward and performs a Rider Kick on the weakened soul, blasts of hellish flames appear from the shin tubes, slowly dissolving the Swindletron Soul. "Guys, the remote control truck!" Sam shouted. Sock nodded and takes out the truck, with Benji controlling it. The truck collides itself with the burning Soul, absorbing the fiend into it's body, smoke coming out of it as the process is done.

(End Insert Song)

Reaper, sighing in relief, is about to transform back into Sam when SwordMantis confronts him and puts him in sword point. "Next time you mess with the HellRiders again, you're toast," SwordMantis said as he walked away, leaving Sam completely clueless. "What was that about?" Sam asked his two buddies as they approach him.

"Having a blast, Sammy?" the Devil asked as Sam was cleaning The Work Bench's toilets the next day. "Yeah. By the way, I have a question," Sam said. "Well, fire away," the Devil said. "Who are these HellRiders?" Sam asked. The Devil had a rather surprised look on his face. "You should find that out for yourself," that's the only words that came out of the Devil's mouth.
