Reid hid behind a collapsed building and continued his to shoot but there's no effect at all. He cursed and ran to get near to Tyrant. Tyrant that had been annoyed by Reid only swung his tail to knock him off. Reid fell down to the side, facing Rossi that was still in his world.
"ROSSI!" Reid cried, horrified. He's worried about Rossi's safety because Rossi seem not to pay attention about his surrounding. Unfortunately, it's quite havoc there so Reid's cried didn't have any effect on him. He frowned when he saw Rossi talking to the air. He looked around but he couldn't saw anyone.
He got up to go to Rossi. On his way, a building collapsed right in front of him. He fell down and looked up. A building was almost collapsed on Rossi!
"Rossi! Watch out!"
Reid widened his eyes in disbelieve. A light had engulfed Rossi completely and protected him from the building. Reid shut his eyes because the light blinded him. When he snapped his eyes opened, Rossi did not looked surprised at all. He touched the light lightly as if he patted it. The light dispersed and engulfed Rossi's hand.
"What?" Reid couldn't processed what he saw in front of his eyes.
"Thank you again for saving me. Looks like I can't depend on myself on saving everyone," Rossi sighed and looked at the light at his hand.
'No, you can't do it alone. But together, we can make the impossible, possible. Merge with me, Kotaro. It's the only way we can save everyone'
Rossi sighed. He stared at the back of Tyrant that still rampaging the city. Japan Air Force had lose before they had a chance to attack it. He knew the chance of human to survive were too slim. He gripped his hands.
"What about your student?"
'He will come to me when he see my true form. Don't worry'
"The Ultra Badge?"
'Already put it on your cloth'
"You came prepared. Do you know that we will see each other here and we will merge?"Rossi chuckled darkly.
'Just a hunch'
"Let's go, partner"
Rossi ran towards Tyrant. Reid followed him immediately. His curiosity piqued and he intended to know what's going on. His sole sight focus on Rossi until a shrilled cried made him turned around.
Reid saw a little girl trapped under a building. Without hesitation, he went and tried to save her.
"Don't worry. I've got you. I'll save you," Reid pushed the building aside. He tried to reach the little girl by his hand.
"Take my hand," he offered his hand. The little girl tried to reach it but she couldn't. She started to cry again but Reid cooed her.
"Don't cry. I'll save you no matter what. I promise it with my live," suddenly, the ground trembled beneath them and he looked up to see Tyrant's tail coming at him!
"Aaah!" he shut his eyes but nothing came. He opened it slowly and to his surprised, a light had blocked it before it disappeared. He's very shocked and couldn't move his body. The little girl cries had bring him back to reality. He grasped her hand and yanked her out. He brought her to safety and then continued his quest to find Rossi.
At the meantime, Rossi had managed to come near with Tyrant. He inspected his surrounding before put away his gun.
'Now!'
Taro commanded him. Rossi crossed his hands in front of his chest and his right hand snatched a badge from his left shoulder. He brought the badge up in the air and cried, "TARO!"
Out of nowhere, a light came down from the sky. It materialised itself and did a flying kick to Tyrant. Reid stunned when he saw an Ultraman standing in front of him, alive and well.
Taro steadied himself and made a protective stance in front of Tyrant. They circled each other before Taro lunged at Tyrant. They fought hand on hand combat with an awed Reid standing below them. Tyrant saw an opening and fired at him. Without no time to dodged, he received a direct hit and fell down. Reid gasped.
"No!," Reid took out his Revolver and fired. The bullet hit Tyrant's neck and he roared. He turned back and spotted Reid standing below him. He fired at Reid but Reid managed to dodge it.
"Come on. Get up, Ultraman! You are much more tougher than this. Get up and fight!"
'Reid? Yes, we are much more tougher than this. If we can defeat Tyrant once...'
'...We surely can kill him now!'
Taro finished Rossi's sentence. With a slight difficulty, he managed to get up. He turned around to launch Storium Beam but he froze before he scream mentally.
'Reid! No!'
Tyrant had attacked Reid with his flame. Reid that had seen this closed his eyes and waited for his doom. He expected to feel hot on his skin and unbearable pain but instead he feel wind brushing his skin. He opened his eyes slowly, afraid of what he might see next. But he had been greeted by a light that slowly transform to a massive translucent being.
'Hello Spencer Reid. It's been an honour to meet you in person. Well, actually I've been monitoring you since you show your courage to fight Tyrant. Well, you...'
"Hold on a second. You spoke in Japanese but nonetheless, I can understand you. How can I? I mean, I knew that you spoke in Japanese and I've heard Rossi speak Japanese countless of times, but this is confusing. My mother tongue had always been English and I never learn to speak Japanese. But I can understand you perfectly as if Japanese had been my mother tongue since I'm born. Practically..."
'Woah, woah! Easy there, Spencer. You were the one that making me confused right now. How about I tell you about myself and you can tell me about yourself later. Okay?'
"Fair to me. So, who are you and which planet you inhabited?"
'You are really an impatient person, are you? Well, my name is Ultraman Mebius and I've came from Nebula M-78. I'm here with my teacher because he went to teach me on how to combat in real. As a rambunctious kid, I tended to wander around aimlessly. That's when I found you.'
"So, the Ultraman that had been standing right there is your teacher? Did he knew that you're with me right now?"
'Yup, that's my teacher. His name is Ultraman Taro. It seems that my instructor had found his host. When we are in this dimension, the time doesn't move outside. So, they still like a statue. We have all the time in the world'
"I'm the only human that you confront now. So, that's mean that you've taken interest on me. Why is that so?," Reid furrowed his brow as to think hardly. Mebius only chuckled at his behaviour.
'Always want to get to the core of the problem, aren't you? I see your courage and your determination to save the world. So, I thought we can fuse together. I will give you power to save everyone. On the exchange, I want to borrow your body when I'm on Earth. Agree?'
"What will happen to me, then? I mean you won't take my soul, right?" Reid asked worriedly.
'Nonsense. Your soul will be your soul only. You can still interact freely with the other humans. I will give you a transformation item. When monsters attack, you will use that to call me. We will fuse and defeat the monsters'
"Okay then if you say so. I agree. Let's go, Mebius."
'Thank you. It's been an honour to fight alongside with you'
Suddenly, Reid body had been engulfed in light. He opened his eyes and he saw Tyrant fired his flame to him. Without any time to waste, he rolled out of the way. He looked past Tyrant and he could saw Taro extended his hand towards him, probably afraid of him getting killed.
Reid glanced at his left hand and he could saw a colourful thing like a brace. He didn't knew why but it seemed that he knew what to do next. He got up and clenched his fist.
"I will defeat you!" Reid put his left hand in front of his body. With his right hand, he swiped his transformation item. The item glowed brightly when he did that. He raised his left hand highly in the sky and shout, "Mebius!"
His body glowed brightly and he transformed. Taro watched with a smile on his face while Rossi watched with an amused expression on his face. Instead of Reid, now stand a new protector of Earth, a new Ultraman.
