OPENING CRAWL:
Having just defeated the Gel-shocker kaijin, Honōtokage, the Double Riders (Kamen Rider 1/Hongo Takeshi and Kamen Rider 2/Hayato Ichimonji) were surprised to find themselves being challenged by the Hopper Hell Brothers, Punchhopper and Kickhopper. Although they fought valiantly, the Double Riders were no match to the more technologically superior suits of the Hopper Hell Brothers. Defeated and defenseless, the Double Riders can only wait for the inevitable as the Hopper Hell Brothers unleash their final attack on the duo. However, a shadowy mechanical being has something to say about that.
Meanwhile, the Saviour of Century's End, Kenshiro struggles against his most recent opponent who refuses to give up no matter how many times he has been put to the ground. What madness was his mismatched opponent suffering from to feverishly continue his assault? Kenshiro was about to find out...
The scene shifts to a valley/quarry. Only gusts of wind can be heard. The scene then shifts to the quarry floor before stopping at a particular area of the ground. Suddenly, a silver gloved fist punches the ground. The camera pans up the arm to reveal a panting Kamen Rider 1/Hongo Takeshi struggling to stand but only managing a kneeling position. The camera then pans to the front as Kamen Rider 1/Hongo Takeshi looks forward. Next to him, Kamen Rider 2/Hayato Ichimonji also struggles to stand and equally fails. He too looks forward with Kamen Rider 1/Hongo Takeshi. The camera than zooms out to reveal two pairs of legs in front of the Double Riders. One pair is covered in light brown armour, the other in green armour. The scene shifts to the Hopper Hell Brothers looking down towards the defeated Double Riders, having just used their Clock Up abilities.
PUNCHHOPPER
(mockingly)
And here I thought their combined power could defeat us. What a letdown.
KICKHOPPER
(nonchalantly)
It's to be expected. They are obsolete models after all. However, we have our objective. Let's end it now.
The Hopper Hell Brothers pull their respective Hopper Zecter legs to initiate their Rider Jump.
KICKHOPPER & PUNCHHOPPER
Rider Jump!
HOPPER ZECTERS
(mechanically)
RIDER JUMP!
Yellow energy coursed from the Zecters to PunchHopper's right leg and KickHopper's left leg respectively before they launched themselves into the air. Below, the Double Riders await their end.
KAMEN RIDER 2/HAYATO ICHIMONJI
(weakly)
Is this it, Hongo? Are we to be defeated? What would happen to the world if we were gone?!
KAMEN RIDER 1/TAKESHI HONGO
(weakly)
Do not worry, Hayato. As long as the memory of Kamen Rider exists, we will never be defeated…
Reaching the apex of their jump, the Hopper Hell Brothers initiated their respective signature attacks.
KICKHOPPER
(nonchalantly)
Rider Kick.
HOPPER ZECTER (mechanically)
RIDER KICK!
PUNCHHOPPER
(cockingly)
RIDER PUNCH!
HOPPER ZECTER (mechanically)
RIDER PUNCH!
The Hopper Hell Brothers descended upon the Double Riders engulfed in green and red tachyon energy. The Double Riders, too weak to move no less evade, could only watch as their impending end approached. Suddenly, out of nowhere, two white missiles appeared behind the Double Riders and headed straight for the Hopper Hell Brothers. The missiles exploded upon impact with the Hopper Hell Brothers respective attacks, causing them to somersault back to the ground. Smoke and dust filled the area as both the Hopper Hell Brothers and the Double Riders were momentarily stunned.
PUNCHHOPPER
(surprised, angrily)
What the hell was that, Aniki?! (turn towards KickHopper)
However, KickHopper was not listening. He was staring at the disheveled smoke and dust between him and the Double Riders. As the dust and smoke began to clear, he could make out the silhouette of the Double Riders. However, he could make out another silhouette just in front of them as well. Kickhopper' clenched his fist as the new silhouette flashed its two yellow eyes. The dust and smoke finally settled and revealed a blue robot with its arms crossed as it stared intently at the Hopper Hell Brothers. The moment of silence was broken by PunchHopper.
PUNCHHOPPER
(explodes in surprised irritation)
YOU! What are YOU doing here?!
KickHopper raises his hand. PunchHopper sees this and takes it as a signal stay quiet. KickHopper dips his head down before taking a step towards the blue robot.
KICKHOPPER
(nonchalantly with a hint of amusement)
Aren't you a bit far from home? I don't recall this part of the world being one of your patrol areas. (looks up to the blue robot whilst tilting his head) Or are you just lost, Neo?
NEO GETTER
(calmly)
I came to stop you two from making a huge mistake. You have no idea about the implications your actions will cost.
KICKHOPPER
(nonchalantly with a hint of a mocking tone)
But we are aware of the implications. That's why we chose to go through with it. Not to mention, having the golden opportunity to test ourselves against the famed Double Riders. (waves hand towards kneeling Double Riders)And as you can see, we've proven ourselves better.
NEO GETTER
(calmly)
Your egos and your outlook on life has blinded both of you to the true extent of the damage you will cause. By destroying them...
KICKHOPPER
(nonchalantly)
We replace them as the true Double Riders. Our world will benefit from it.
NEO GETTER
(calmly as he uncrosses his arms)
Then you leave me no choice. I will have to stop you.
PUNCHHOPPER
(loudly)
ENOUGH TALK (waves his arm in frustration)! (looks towards KickHopper) Aniki, let me handle him. I'll destroy him with my bare hands (slams fist into palm)
As PunchHopper turned to face Neo getter, he was caught off guard by a blue fist flying towards his face. The collision caused PunchHopper to land on his back, a few feet away from KickHopper, temporarily knocking him out. KickHoppper looked in surprise to his fallen comrade before focusing his attention on Neo Getter, who had just reeled his chained hand back into his arm socket.
NEO GETTER
(calmly)
Before you face me, you'd first learn to handle your temper.
KickHopper wasted no time as he lunged at Neo Getter with a front kick. Neo Getter easily evaded the attack by turning his body to the side and simultaneously struck KickHopper in the chest with his palm. This sends KickHopper staggering a few steps back. Recovering quickly, KickHopper raised his head to engage his opponent but found him gone. An overlooming shadow alerted him to his opponent's presence as he narrowly dodges Neo Getter's knife. As the two continued fighting, the Double Riders could only watch as the action unfolded in front of them.
KAMEN RIDER 2/HAYATO ICHIMONJI
(weakly)
What do you make of this, Hongo? A blue robot is suddenly helping us fight our enemy. (sarcastically)Quite convenient, don't you think?
KAMEN RIDER 1/TAKESHI HONGO
(weakly)
I do not know. Even if it is a deception, we have to assume that he is on our side for now. It's not like we can do anything in our current state.
KAMEN RIDER 2/HAYATO ICHIMONJI
(weakly but irritated)
Yeah. That's what's bugging me.
The scene then shifts towards Neo Getter and KickHopper. KickHopper performs an axe kick on Neo Getter who parries it with his knife before launching a front kick to KickHopper's chest. This causes KickHopper to fall to the ground, momentarily stunned. At the same time, PunchHopper (now conscious) gets up to see his comrade fall to the floor.
PUNCHHOPPER
(loudly)
ANIKI!
PunchHopper charges towards Neo Getter as he pulls his Hopper Zecter legs back and forth to initiate his Rider Punch. Neo Getter, aware of PunchHopper's approach, throws his knife towards PunchHopper. PunchHopper hits away the thrown knife as he continues to get closer to Neo getter, his right arm glowing with green tachyon energy and positioned to deliver his Rider Punch. As soon as he's in range he launches his fist towards the blue robot.
PUNCHHOPPER
(loudly)
RIDER PUNCH!
HOPPER ZECTER (mechanically)
RIDER PUNCH!
However, PunchHopper's fist hits nothing as it is revealed the Neo Getter standing in front of him was a hologram. This surprises him so much, he fails to realize Neo getter standing behind him. PunchHopper quickly turns but is too late as Neo Getter chops him on the neck, causing PunchHopper's body to go limp and fall to the ground.
NEO GETTER
(calmly)
You should be aware of your surroundings.
KICKHOPPER
(nonchalantly but annoyed)
You should follow your own advice.
Neo Getter turns to face KickHopper's voice before narrowly dodging a downward axe kick from KickHopper. Neo getter moves to the front of the Double Riders as KickHopper proceeds to help PunchHopper up. Neo Getter looks back towards the Double Riders.
NEO GETTER
(calmly)
Cover your eyes.
The Double Riders, unsure of Neo getter's orders, can only obliged as they covered their eyes. Meanwhile, KickHopper has helped PunchHopper up and both looked towards Neo Getter.
KICKHOPPER
(nonchalantly)
Come on. Let's finish him.
PUNCHHOPPER
(excited)
Alright!
The Hopper Hell Brothers charge towards Neo Getter who remains calmly stood. As they approached closer, Neo Getter launches two missiles from his back into the sky. The Hopper Hell brothers stop as they are momentarily distracted by the missiles' trajectory. Whilst they were distracted, Neo Getter turns and swiftly picks up the Double Riders onto his shoulders. The missiles explode causing a sudden burst of blinding light which causes the Hopper Hell Brothers to shield their eyes. The quarry is filled with intense white bright light. As KickHopper's eyes adjusted to the increased brightness, he made out Neo Getter and Double Riders escaping into a green portal. As the light decreased its intensity, KickHopper can only watch as the green portal closed. PunchHopper, regaining his vision, was surprised to find Neo Getter and the Double Riders had disappeared.
PUNCHHOPPER
(angrily looks around)
Damn it! They've escaped. (looks towards KickHopper) We should look for them.
KICKHOPPER
(nonchalantly)
Don't bother. They're not in this world anymore. We should head back and report our failure. Set up the portal.
PUNCHHOPPER
(dejected)
Understood.
PunchHopper turns to set up the portal as KickHopper continues to look at the spot where Neo Getter and the Double Riders escaped. Unseen by PunchHopper, he clenches his fist in frustration. The scene then shifts to an apocalyptic landfill. A green portal appears where Neo Getter exits with the Double Riders on his shoulders. The portal closes as he sets the Double Riders down on the ground.
NEO GETTER
(calmly)
Are you alright? You should rest here. The battle with the Hopper Hell Brothers has taken a toll on your bodies.
KAMEN RIDER 1/TAKESHI HONGO
(weakly)
You're right. Thank you for saving us.
KAMEN RIDER 2/HAYATO ICHIMONJI
(weakly)
I thank you as well but who are you? And why did you save us?
NEO GETTER
(calmly)
My name is Neo Getter and we need your help.
The scene shifts to Getter Robo Go slamming his back on a rocky wall before sliding to the ground. As he sits dazed on the ground, the camera zooms out from him before a leather boot steps into the frame. The camera pans to show Kenshiro cracking his right knuckles.
GETTER ROBO GO
(dazed)
I underestimated your strength. To think you were strong enough to cause me some damage.
KENSHIRO
(sternly)
Why do you continue your attacks? It is clear that we are mismatched. What's driving to you to do this?
GETTER ROBO GO
(struggles to stand using his sword)
I told you already. It's my mission to destroy you. (finally stands) And I intend to complete it.
KENSHIRO
(sternly)
But why?
GETTER ROBO GO
(calmly)
To save us all.
As he says this, Getter Robo Go opens a portal to his left and pulls out a hand canon, before shooting it at Kenshiro. Kenshiro barely dodges the bullet as it flies past him. The bullets hits a rock, causing a huge explosion. Kenshiro looks back at the site of the explosion, clear surprised.
KENSHIRO
(surprised)
Explosive rounds?!
A metal clink catches Kenshiro's attention as he looks towards Getter Robo Go who has just finished reloading another bullet into his hand canon. Getter Robo Go aims and fires at Kenshiro again before going back to reloading. Kenshiro dodges the bullet and charges towards Getter Robo Go. Getter Robo continues to fire and reload his hand canon as Kenshiro quickly approached him. Just before he can fire another round, Kenshiro kicks the hand canon from Getter Robo Go's hand before kicking Getter Robo Go back to the rocky wall that Getter Robo Go has earlier slammed into. Further cracks appear on the rock wall.
KENSHIRO
(sternly)
This has gone far enough. Stop this at once.
GETTER ROBO GO
(weakly as he grabs Kenshiro's leg)
I agree. This has to stop.
Getter Robo Go pushes Kenshiro's leg away as he lands on the ground. Kenshiro enters his fighting stance, awaiting the incoming attack.
GETTER ROBO GO
(sternly)
And I'll end it with this. MAXIMISE PLASMA OUTPUT!
Getter Robo Go body is then engulfed in blue fiery plasma energy. Getter Robo Go dashes forward at blinding speed. Kenshiro awaits the attack but was caught off guard as Getter Robo Go teleports to his back. Kenshiro quickly turns around as he blocks a powerful kick from the powered-up Getter Robo Go, sending him back a few feet. Before Kenshiro could recollect himself, Getter Robo Go teleports below Kenshiro and lands an uppercut squarely on Kenshiro's chin. This sends Kenshiro flying to the air. Seeing this, Getter Robo Go pulls his hands to his hips.
GETTER ROBO GO
(sternly)
Reroute all plasma energy to palms!
The blue energy aura surrounding Getter Robo Go's body dissipates as the plasma energy were accumulated into his hands, forming a ball on each of his hands. Getter Robo Go then straightens his arms towards the airborne Kenshiro.
GETTER ROBO GO
(loudly)
PLASMA BOMBER!
A huge ball of plasma energy is launched from Getter Robo Go's hands towards Kenshiro. Unable to do anything, Kenshiro can only cross his arms in defense as the huge ball of energy approached him. The energy ball explodes as it comes into contact with its target, brightening the sky for a brief moment. As the brightness decreased, it is revealed that Getter Robo Go is still in his shooting position. The sky is clear with no signs of Kenshiro. Getter Robo Go drops his arms and sighs in relief, his hands engulfed in steam.
GETTER ROBO GO
(relieved)
Mission accomplished.
A large sound behind him causes Getter Robo Go to turn around. What he sees surprises him as the back of a red figure is revealed. The red figure lowers something or someone to the ground before standing up. The object is revealed to be Kenshiro, unconscious but unscathed from the plasma bomber attack. The red figure turns to face Getter Robo Go. It is revealed to be a red robot slightly smaller than Getter Robo Go.
GETTER ROBO GO
(surprised)
Brother?!
