Hello & welcome to another episode of "NGE: Enter the Orichalcos"! For those who chose not to read the last episode, Rei tried to figure out what the Orichalos members were up to and found herself dueling a young boy who was an agent to the Orichalcos instead. Even though Rei manages to summon her "Rey Eyes Black Dragon", the boy is killed by a mysterious force, leaving her & Big stumped. Meanwhile, Little continues her battle against the mysterious rider named "Diend", who has summoed 3 "Riotroopers" to defend him. And with all this occuring, an unknown being makes his way to Big's world for an unknown reason. Now, all of these forces are about to converse, and there must be a winner...

Enjoy!

Episode 16: Threat of the Stolen Riders (Pt.1)

Little finds the 3 new unknown riders surrounding her in a circular formation, as she tells them "I don't have all day! Now bring it!" The 3 Riotroopers nod to one another and charge right at her. Little prepares to defend herself...

...but the next thing she knows, a large metal staff comes from nowhere and strikes one of the Rio troopers through the chest, as he suddenly shatters like glass. Diend, Little & the other 2 Riotroopers turn to the direction that it came from, as they see Big has arrived with his eyes glowing a fiery red. "Big, you're here!" Little shouted as Big replied "Yea! I sensed someone was causing trouble here at home and decided to return as soon as possible." Diend soon taunted Big with his gun, as he says "So, you must be the hero of this world!" Big nods, as he takes his hat off and places it on the floor. Big then says "And I assume you're the one I was warned of. You must be the Destroyer of Worlds: Decade!" Diend chuckles and says "Sorry to disappoint you, but I am actually a Kamen Rider looking for treasure! Now then, if you behave like a good freak and hand over your father's treasure, I'll be on my way!" Big, however, becomes offended as he takes his cape off and drops it on the ground. Then, he says "The day you touch my father's stuff will be the day you rot in hell!" Big's Sword Arms appear, as he charges towards Diend. However, a greyish barrier appears in front of Big, stopping him, as a man exits through it and says "I heard someone called for a destroyer, eh?"

The barrier disappears, as Big can see a young man in a white shirt, red jacket, black pants and a strange pink-like camera around his neck. Big asks the man "Who are you to interfere?" The man, in response soon takes a belt out of nowhere and wraps it around his waist as he pulls a card out and says "I'm just a passing through Kamen Rider! Remember that!" The man soon shouts "Henshin!" as he places the card into the belt and suddenly transforms!

*KAMEN RIDER: DECADE!*

The man is wrapped in blackish energy and soon finds himself in a black and pinkish armor with green visor eyes, as Big senses the true power of this man. "You...You're Decade?" he asks, as Decade pulls out a box attached to his waist, and changes it to a sword. Decade nods and charges at Big, as the 2 begin their sword battle. Little soon sees the other 2 Riotroopers and Diend turn their attention back to her, as she shouts "Oh (BEEP)!" Diend soon places a card into his gun and says "Sorry freak, but I have no more time to play."

*ATTACK RIDER: CROSS-ATTACK!*

The 2 Riotroopers bring their blades together and blast at Little, who rolls out of the way as the blast hits a wall. Diend soon says "This is a stubborn one, alright!" However, Diend soon moves out of the way as a green axe comes from nowhere and causes one of the Riotroopers to shatter into pieces. Diend seems confused as a new creature appears in a rolled up ball with spikes on it's left and right side. The ball soon unrolls itself as a large red slug armed with attachables lances, as it slices the remaining Riotrooper in half, thus destroying it. Little comes out of her hiding spot as another creature, a creature with 3 green heads, each with an eye and in a business suit, appears and picks up the green axe. Little soon asks "Where the hell were you two this whole time?" as the red slug, conviently named Slug, replied "Well, the last time we were in a fic was the debut story itself, so cut us some slack, Little!" The other one, named Slimy, added "Besides, this is like a reunion for us!" Diend looked at the disavantage and said "Well, this seems unfair!" Unfortunately for him, the 3 shout "OH SHUT UP!" as they charge.

As for Big, he throws an upper slash at Decade, launching him over a desk and onto the floor. Decade tells himself "This is a troublesome one. Damn Kaito and his love for treasure!" Decade turns to block one of Big's slashes, only for Big to spin around and hit him with the Roundhouse kick, sending Decade flying into Diend, who is sent flying right into him at the same time. This causes the 2 Riders to hit one another and fall to the ground. Big, Little, Slimy & Slug surround them, as Big notices his old friends and says "Slimy? Slug? Wow! I can't believe it's you guys!" Slimy soon tells him "Well Big, it's been a long time for us also! Now let's wrap this up, shall we?" Suddenly, a large wormhole appeared behind our heroes as they turn to find a golden covered rider with red eyes and appreantly armed with a Duel Disk. "Move, heroes! I shall punish these Riders myself!" Big asks him "Who are you?" The mysterious person soon replies "I am Kamen Rider Kiryu, and my mission is to control the powers of the 9 Riders and unite the worlds together into one!" Decade soon says "What? I will not allow you to do that, Kiryu!" However, Kiryu says "You have no choice! Now, farewell Kamen Rider Decade & Diend!" This didn't sit right with Diend, as he pulled a card out and said "I've had enough of this world and I've had enough of you as well!" Diend places the card into his gun and cocked it.

*FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-D-DIEND!*

Diend's gun created a swirling vortex around the barrel of his gun as Big, Little, Slimy & Slug moved. Then, Diend fired, which created a blue energy laser. However, Kiryu simply slapped the beam into a different direction, causing an explosion in a nearby room. "What? Impossible!" Diend shouted, as Kiryu soon said "And now, your powers are mine!" Kiryu's Duel Disk suddenly created some sort of vaccumm that seemed to suck Decade & Diend's cards right from them, as well as they themselves, turning them back to their normal forms. The 2 humans fell to the ground, as Kiryu chuckled and said "And now, with the powers of Decade & Diend, I will fuse all worlds into one whole!" Big, however, looked at the 2 powerless humans and realized something:

Big asks him "Who are you?" The mysterious person soon replies "I am Kamen Rider Kiryu, and my mission is to control the powers of the 9 Riders and unite the worlds together into one!" Decade soon says "What? I will not allow you to do that, Kiryu!" However, Kiryu says "You have no choice! Now, farewell Kamen Rider Decade & Diend!"

Big soon told Kiryu "Wait, Kiryu! If you fuse the worlds together, they will destroy each other! 2 worlds cannot co-exist in the same universe!" Kiryu, however, said "Then, I will make it so! Farewell!" Big tries to reach towards him, but Kiryu disappears just as quickly as he appeared. Big brings his head down, as Little tells him "What happens next?" Big replies "I don't know!" However, they turn to see Slimy & Slug holding up their previous opponents and Big says "I think, though, I can figure out where we go from here!"

Meanwhile, in Tokyo-3...

Shinji begins to pace back and forth in front of the Interdimensional Transporter, as Ritsuko sees him here and asks "Shinji, what are you doing here? Aren't you suppose to be doing some type of training exercise with Big or something?" Shinji stops pacing and replies "Sorry Akasi-san, but Big just suddenly said 'I have to return home' and left for his world!" Ritsuko, now upset, says "That pompous ass! Who the hell does he think he is?" Shinji just replies "I guess that's how he is!" Ritsuko soon says "Oh, we'll just see about that!" as she pulls out her cell-phone, and makes a call. Once someone answers, she says to the person on the other line "Misato, bring Rei & Asuka with you back to NERV! We need to have a word with their 'teacher'!" Ritsuko hangs up, as she grabs Shinji and tells him "Come on, Shinji! We're going to get Big back here now!" Shinji tries to struggle, but she forces him through the transporter.

Back in Miami...

The 2 humans, by now, are tied up to chairs, as Big aks them "Now tell us what the hell is going on with this 'Rider' stuff, and you'd better tell us now or this will hurt alot!" One of them who Little encountered earlier said "Hold your breath!", as the other said "We're just Riders passing through different worlds!" Slimy says in a sarcastic way "Yea, we got that part! What about the 9 Riders? Who are they?" The man replies "The 9 Riders are bascially the 9 youngest riders that represent the next generation of the Kamen Riders!" Slug soon scratches his chin and says "I have heard of the Kamen Riders, though! They're suppose to be guardians of the Earth, not insane villians or thieves!" The other man, known as Kaito, says "You say thief, I say collector!" Little, however, says "BULL!" Little then begins screaming at Kaito, as Big hears something. "Shush!" he says, quieting Little, as he starts walking slowly towards an office that's door is conviently open. The unidentified man asks "Who's room is that?" as Slug replies "His father's!"

Big walks into the office, hearing a strange noise that sounds like the cries of a large monster, as they appreantly come from the drawer. Big opens it and pulls out a envelope appreantly addressed to him, as he opens it up and pulls a letter out.

Big...

I only hope you obtain this letter and no someone else. If the contents of inside this letter were to ever reach the members of the Orichalcos, then the fate of the world may be lost to us all. Inside this envelope is a one-of-a-kind card that I asked Pegasus to make specifically for you. You recall how I mentioned in my previous letter that there were 3 Legendary Dragons: Timaeus, Critias & Hermos?

Big nods, recalling the contents of that letter before continuing onward.

Well, this is a very special dragon that is to be designated for your needs only. However, in order to use this card, you must reach the next level of dueling. You see Big, there are several levels of dueling and the level you are at shows how well you have become at using monster effects and fusion. However, this card will signal your entrance into the world of a new style of dueling called 'Synchro'! Big, I leave the fate of this card to you! It's all up to you from here on out!

With Love,

Carlos

Big blinked, saddened by what he read in the letter as he put it on the table and pulled pout what was left in the envelope. Inside was a white card with the picture of a white dragon with a bluish-purple chest and green eyes. Big read the card and repeated the name of the card to himself "Stardust Dragon, huh?" Big blinked, unsure of what to do with this new card, as he put the card in his vest and decided to deal with it at a later date.

Once he exits the room, Slimy looks at him and asks "What's up?" Big shakes his head and says "Don't worry about it!" However, the unknown man asked "Hey, what about that other Rider? Don't you think you should be going after him?" Big replies "I'll do so, but it's hard to figure out where he is if I don't know how to even find him." The unknown man soon said "I can help you find him, but you need to untie me first." Big soon asks him "Why should I trust you?" The unknown man soon replied "Because if Kiryu continues to go through worlds, stealing the powers of other Riders, he'll cause all the Rider worlds to collapse on each other. Even though your world may or may not have a Kamen Rider, there is still the risk your world will suffer the same fate as the others." Big blinked, and instantly he knew. He walked towards the man and started untying him. "Um, Big, what are you doing?" Little asked, as Big replied "If he can help us, then we have to trust him." Once the mysterious man was untied, he soon said "Thanks! Now, let's go!" A greyish barrier appeared next to the unknown man, as Big nodded. As the unknown man walked into the barrier, Big heard someone scream "WHERE IS HE? WHERE IS THAT JACKASS?" Knowing who that was, Big jumped into the greyish barrier as it disappeared.

By then, Ritsuko appeared with Shinji in tow as she starred at the sight in front of her and asked "Okay, where is he? Where's Big?" Little replied "You might want to sit down then, Ritsuko. This is going to be a bit of a story."

World of Decade...

Big and the mysterious man find themselves in a city just outside a stadium. "Where are we?" Big asks, as the mysterious man, named Tsukasa, replies "This is my world! Appreantly, he's been hiding here." Big & Tsukasa are about to enter when a glowing ball appears above them. Big, sensing it, looks up and sees the glowing ball, as he asks "Now what?" The glowing ball soon stops in front of them and says "I have felt the disturbance in the worlds as well, and figured you might need my help!" Big blinks in a suprised way and asks "Neos? Is that you?" The glowing ball soon reveals himself as Neos in a see-throughable form. Big chuckled and said "I thought you were after some dangerous hero. What happened?" Neos replied "An unknown force suddenly appeared in Neo Space and destroyed our home. Now, we have been left with nothing." Big felt sad, until he looked at his deck and then back at Neos, as he said "You could always fuse with my deck. That way, you'd have twice the power." Neos scratches his chin and says "I guess it couldn't be that bad, but if we do, you have to promise us you'll help us find the most dangerous hero and help us defeat it once and for all." Big pondered for a moment and said "You got a deal!" With that, Neos turned himself back into a glowing ball and entered Big's deck. His deck glowed for a moment in strange lights for a moment before stopping completely. Big then looks at Tsukasa and tells him "Decade, while I'm not sure if you're truly a Destroyer of Worlds of not, I thank you for your help! Now then, let's take care of Kiryu and end this!" Tsukasa then tells Big "My name is Tsukasa, and as for this 'Destroyer of Worlds' nonsense, don't believe everything you hear." Big nods, as the 2 enter the stadium.

Back in Miami...

"So let me get this straight..." Ritsuko says, and then adds "Big went to another dimension because some guy is causing all of the dimensions to fuse together, which would cause all of them to collapse. Is that about right?" Kaito replies "That's about right, blondie." Ritsuko rubs her temples and says "I am going to rip him a new hole when he gets back."

Back in Decade's world...

Big & Decade enter the stadium and find Kiryu sitting in the bleachers watching the giant scoreboard like some kind of TV, as it showed an image of all the worlds starting to fuse together. "KIRYU!" Big shouts, as Kiryu stands up and looks at Big. "Well, if it isn't one of the heroes I encountered earlier. What brings you here?" Kiryu says, as Big replies "You have bought danger to all worlds, and now it's time for this to stop." Kiryu chuckles to himself and says "I'm afraid Big that it's already too late. Soon, all of the worlds will become one together, one that I will reign as it's sole rider." Tsukasa soon says "As a Rider, you have proven yourself as a disgrace. Once Big wipes the floor with you, I'll pick you apart myself." Kiryu's Duel Disk soon activated itself, as he floated down to the ground level and landed around 10 feet away from Big. In response, Big activates his Battle City Duel Disk and tells Kiryu "I will not allow you to disgrace the Kamen Riders, whose powers you believe are fit to belong to you. Once I win, those powers will return to their respective owners." Kiryu chuckles and says "We shall see if you can even stand up to me!" The 2 soon shouted "DUEL" as their battle began.

DUEL:
Big
(4000 LP) vs. Kamen Rider Kiryu (4000 LP)

Kiryu announces "I'll begin our duel!" as he draws a card and looks at his hand (Rider War World, Kamen Rider Kuuga, Rider's Soul, Kamen Rider Black, Black/RX Duo, & Kamen Rider J), as he announces "I activate the field magic card known as the Rider War World!" Big seems tensed as Tsukasa panics and says "No! Not this again!" The whole field suddenly transforms itself into a barren wasteland, as Kiryu says "Thanks to the power of this card, each time you destroy a Kamen Rider in battle, a new one will be added to my hand right afterwards. Also, I can special summon a 4-star or lower Kamen Rider from my hand by sending a Kamen Rider card in my deck to the graveyard. So, to give you an example, I send my Kamen Rider Blade card in my deck to the graveyard to summon my Kamen Rider Kuuga!" Kiryu's deck ejects a card from itself, as he sends the card named 'Kamen Rider Blade' to his graveyard. In return, a rider in red armor with a black suit under appears with large red eyes and yellow highlighted areas (4-star/2000 ATK). Kiryu soon announces "I'll place 1 card face down and end my turn." A card appears in front of Kiryu as Big takes his turn.

Big announces "Now it's my move!" as he draws a card and looks at his hand (E-Hero Avian, Polymerization, Neo Spacian Glow Moss, N-Signal, E-Hero Burstinatrix & Hero Barrier) as he notices the Neo Spacian in his hand and tells himself "I'd better save that for later!" Then, he announces "I activate Polymerization to fuse E-Heroes Avian & Burstinatrix to summon E-Hero Flame Wingman!" On cue, the spirits of Avian & Burstinatrix fuse, as the Flame Wingman arrives (6-star/2100 ATK). Then, Big announces "Go Flame Wingman! Attack with Skydiving Scorcher!" The Flame Wingman fires a stream of flame from his dragom arm at Kuuga, who screams in pain before exploding as Kiryu loses 100 LP.

(Kiryu: 3900 LP)

Then, the Flame Wingman aims his dragon hand at Kiryu, as Big announces "Now that the Flame Wingman destroyed one of your monsters in battle, you'll take damage equal to that monster's ATK." Kiryu chuckles as he says "No, I won't!" Big doesn't understand as the Flame Wingman fires away at Kiryu, who announces "I activate my Rider's Soul trap card." Kiryu's trap card soon flips itself up as Kiryu says "By sending a Kamen Rider in my deck to the graveyard, I can negate any damage to my life points by the effects of a card. So, I sacrifice Kamen Rider Ryuki to protect my life points." Kiryu's deck pops the Ryuki card out, as he sends it to the graveyard. This causes a holographic version of a rider in red armor with a black & silver helmet to block the Flame Wingman's attack. Big sighs and says "I'll place 1 card face down and end my turn." A card appears in front of Big as he turn comes to an end."

Kiryu soon takes his turn, as he draws a card (Double Rider Henshin) and gains a card due to the effects of Rider War World (Kamen Rider Decade). Kiryu then announces "By sending Kamen Rider Agito from my deck to the graveyard, I can summon to the field Kamen Rider Black." Soon enough, a new rider appears in full black armor and wearing a strange symbol on his chest (4-star/2000 ATK). Then, he announces "Next, I activate the magic card, Black/RX Duo! When Kamen Rider Black is in play, I can special summon Black RX to the field simply by sending another Kamen Rider card in my deck to the graveyard." Big doesn't seem to understand Kiryu's strategy at all, as another Kamen Rider card (Faiz) is sent to the graveyard. In return, though, comes a new Kamen Rider in green & black armor with red visor eyes (4-star/2000 ATK). Then, Kiryu announces "And now, I activate the magic card, Double Rider Henshin! This card allows me to summon yet another Kamen Rider to my field if I have already done so this turn. Therefore, by sending yet another Kamen Rider card in my deck to the graveyard, I can summon Kamen Rider J." Kiryu soon sends yet another card in his deck to the graveyard (Kamen Rider Hibiki), as a new rider arrives. However, when he appears, Big's mouth hangs wide open as he sees this new rider is the size of an Ultraman, though covered in black armor and had red eyes (7-star/3000 ATK). Big instantly realized he might be in way over his head, as Kiryu announced "Kamen Rider J, attack now!" Kamen Rider J nods and wraps his right hand into a fist, as he swings towards the Flame Wingman. Big panics as he sees the attack coming.

To Be Continued!

Well, I've officially got my writer's block off of me for now, and I hope you guys enjoyed Part 1. As for Part 2, it's about to get really interesting:

"The duel between Big & Kiryu gets intense as Big finds out Kiryu's strategy, but not in time as he soon finds himself staring into the path of a rider named Kamen Rider Decade Jumbo! His only chance lies in using the powers of E-Hero Neos & the Neo Spacians! However, will he be able to summon a game breaker in time? Or, will Kiryu's actions destroy all of the worlds?"

That's it for this episode! Until next time, here's the card of the chapter:

Rider War World (Kamen Rider Kiryu's card)

(Field Magic Card) As long as this card is in play, you can special summon a 4-star or lower "Kamen Rider" monster card from your hand by sending a "Kamen Rider" card in your deck to your graveyard. If you do, you cannot normal summon, set, or special summon a monster card on that particular turn except by a card effect. During your draw phase, you can move a "Kamen Rider" monster card from your deck to your hand.

Until next time! Bye!
