M3: "Welcome back to our segment."
IceBite: "Looks like we have ANOTHER chapter ready…"
M3: *To Ice* "Is there anything you want to bring up?"
IceBite: "...Not really…"
M3: "I got nothing either, so let's get the chapter up."

Chapter 9: Showing Off
The group departed from Carrion Island to start the search for the Future Children as their new current objective.
As for the Valmese Empire problem, the force that was sent to Ferox was apparently tasked to invade for 3 months before returning back to meet up with the massive fleet back in Valm and give progress on the invasion. This information was found in the main ship, which was searched after the battle concluded.
Of course, the Valmese force was defeated, which gave a rather large amount of time for the Shepherds and Feroxian Army time to gather resources and numbers before the Valmese Empire realized that their invasion force never returned.
WIth three months as their time limit, the group scoured the lands as quickly as they could. As time went on, progress was made.
So far, the group managed to find Brady, Severa, Cynthia, Germone, Yarne, Laurent, Nah, Owain, and Noire. After Noire was found, the problem of sharing a name with someone else quickly arose.
The rather simple solution was that the CPU Noire would still be referred to as Noire, while Tharja's daughter, Noire, would instead be referred as "Noi"...or at least till a new (and better) nickname was thought up.
After getting that addressed, the group continue on their search.
Soon, however, they received word of a powerful artifact, Naga's Tear, that could potentially give them an edge in the coming war. So, the search was put on hold so they could go after the artifact.
They soon arrived at the ruin the artifact was in, the Ruins of Time. When they arrived, though, it seemed the Risen were already concentrating on something...a girl...who wore a cloak like Sevon's and Lenora's, but wielded a patchwork scrap version of Ruby's Crescent Rose.
Lucina immediately identified the girl as Morgan.
MORGAN ROSE AS THE TACTICIAN HUNTRESS!
"There's far too many Risen, though...we'll never get to her in time!" Lucina cried.
Daniel's eyes narrowed...and he turned into Kamen Rider Danilos.
"KAMEN RIDE: DANILOS! RIDE FORM!"
*Music Track: "Unlimited Drive" by Kamen Rider Girls*
"I have something…" Daniel stated, before removing a card from the Danilos Advent Deck...and inserting it back in the other side.
"FORM RIDE: DANILOS! UNLIMITED VOID FORM!"
The resulting form had the same robe as his main form, but the color scheme changed from green to black with red trim, and the armor had an otherwise different helmet: it looked vaguely car-like, with the 'eyes' replaced with headlights. The torso armor resembled the original armor melded with the front of a sports car. Daniel had designed this form after Kamen Rider Drive's Type: Tridoron.
This was Kamen Rider Danilos, Unlimited Void Form, Danilos' fastest form and the one dedicated to the power of the Void.
Danilos then rushed forward, the sound of a car zooming by sounding as he did, and in moments, he was in between Morgan and a Risen that had gotten a BIT too close.
Danilos turned to Morgan. "Don't worry, I'll take it from here!"
Morgan nodded, shocked at Danilos's arrival.
Connor didn't follow after Daniel, but kept a comment to himself about how fast Daniel was.
Morgan was still shocked by the arrival of the Kamen Rider, who then began to decimate the Risen with Bane Blades projected from the gauntlets of the armor. However, morale restored, she joined the fight, sniping Risen before they closed with Danilos and Danilos taking down any that got by her sniping.
Soon, a group of Risen flying on undead pegasi and Wyverns began closing in, and Danilos retrieved the Chaos Void Blaster, which began firing out Void Spheres that struck down the Risen.
While that went on, Connor advanced with the Shepherds to take out the Risen in their way to Daniel and Morgan. Several Risen were shot down by Connor with his Infinity pistol and the Shepherds following him took care of any leftover Risen.
Soon, however, a massive surge of Risen came from the bowels of the Ruin, and surged towards the group. "GET BACK!" Danilos called...as he took out another card...and inserted it into the Chaos Void Blaster this time.
"HISSATSU! FULL THROTTLE!"
"FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-D-DANILOS!"
"FINAL VENT!"
Danilos then announced, "ULTIMATE VOID SHOOTER!"
The Chaos Void Blaster began charging Void Energies, as lightning sparked from the main body of the weapon towards the backs of each of the barrels, the fronts of which began to glow...until…
A massive beam of energy shot out, and decimated a portion of the oncoming Risen. The recoil of the beam was enough to push Danilos back a few feet, despite his feet remaining anchored to the ground.
When the beam ended, there were still Risen alive, but they were in disarray.
*End Track*
Then, as that happened, another flight of Risen appeared, this time...led by a Risen Chief on a Griffin.
"If that's all you got for the small fry...Good luck taking out the big guy...He looks very resilient." Connor said to Daniel.
Danilos then said, "Looks like I need to change gears…"
He then pulled another card out, and inserted it into the Advent Deck.
*Music Track: "Supernova" by Tetra Fang*
"FORM RIDE: DANILOS! CHAOS SUPERNOVA FORM!"
The resulting form changed Daniel again: this time, he had a helmet with a visor resembling red bat wings, and the armor turned from red to a rusted gold, the gemstones in the robe becoming topaz-like. The torso armor changed into Ride Form's melded with a bat-like chestpiece. The off-center X was changed into an X overlaid with a +, giving it the passing resemblance to an 8-pointed star. All in all, it looked like Ride Form melded with a rusted version of Kamen Rider Kiva's Emperor Form.
This was Daniel's strongest non-Super/Final form, Kamen Rider Danilos, Chaos Supernova Form, the form seeped in the powers of the Warp and closest to Chaos…
...A form that brought chills down the mechanical spine of the Tech-Priest present, as he knew this form was practically heretical...except that its user was the one who helped revive the Emperor and the Emperor himself aided in the empowerment of the form...
Danilos then charged forward, unleashing a series of kicks into a Risen Knight, before unleashing a powerful kick that knocked the Risen to the ground...before it disintegrated. He then continued using martial arts to strike at the surrounding Risen, who tried to swarm the young man...before Danilos began charging energy, which he soon released in a shockwave, knocking back the Risen, and killing a good number of them.
"How about leaving some for the rest of us to fight!? Or are you just going make us feel pointless!?" Connor yelled out as he watched with everyone else.
Danilos continued on fighting, until the Risen Chief decided to intervene, coming in with its axe. Danilos dodged it, and pulled out another card, before inserting it into his belt.
"ATTACK RIDE! SLASH!"
With that, the Chaos Void Blaster turned into a sword again, and Danilos got into a duel with the Risen Chief, which kept swooping in, but Danilos kept countering it...and soon…"Alright, enough's enough!" He then pulled out a by-now-familiar card, and put it in the Advent Deck.
"WAKE UP!"
"FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-D-DANILOS!"
"FINAL VENT!"
Danilos began to float into the air, his symbol appearing in the air behind him.
"CHAOS EMPEROR BREAK!" Danilos declared...as an energy drill appeared around his feet, and he began flying at the Risen Chief at high speeds, the drill rotating...before he struck the Chief off its steed, and kept flying, pushing the Risen Chief as it went, until they struck the wall behind them.
The result was the Risen Chief being embedded in the wall, lightning crackling off it, as Daniel pushed off, landing on the ground in front of it...before turning around as the Risen Chief exploded behind him.
Then, once the explosion cleared, Daniel dismissed the armor.
*End Track*
At that point, the Risen began dying in droves, with the Chief gone.
The first person to reach Daniel was actually Connor, who had something to say.
"First off, good job on clearing out the Risen. Second, did you really have to show off?" Connor said, ending with a dry tone.
"I just...wanted to get the fight over with…" Daniel replied, sheepishly.
"And that you did." Connor retorted back. "I'm going to be heading back to help in the search for treasure and other stuff...Feel free to join in if you want."
Daniel shrugged. "I guess...Just gimme a moment, alright?" he replied, turning towards Morgan, who was talking to her parents.
"Okay, see you later man." Connor said before leaving to join up with the Shepherds that were going to search the ruins.
Daniel turned and then approached Morgan, who noticed him coming. "Hello," she commented, smiling.
"Uh, hey… … …" Daniel replied awkwardly, "So...you're Ruby and Sevon's kid, then…"
"Yup! Name's Morgan. Morgan Rose."
"Ok, my name's Daniel Mitchell…"
"Hmmm…" Morgan then began staring at Daniel's face.
"Uhm… … ...what're you doing?" Daniel asked nervously.
"You know that feeling you get when you recognize a face, but can't tell how or where it came from?" she asked.
"Well...Lucina did say something about you being one of the Future Children my future counterpart was close with…" Daniel replied.
"Oh, right, the time travel, I'm in the past…" Morgan remembered, having been informed by her father of that fact.
"...So...you doing alright, there?" Daniel asked.
"...Yeah...you really came right on time…" Morgan replied, looking away.
The duo remained silent for a moment, before Daniel finally said, "Well…I'm about to go scavenging...see you later?"
"Yeah, sure," Morgan replied, still looking away. As Daniel left, he didn't notice Morgan blushing. Nor did he know what she was thinking. 'Where do I remember him from? And...why do I feel so...strange…'
The ruins were relatively easy to explore with the Risen gone. A few chests and other items were located and searched thoroughly. However, the current area of the ruins did not have the artifact they were looking for.
So, the group decided to go deeper into the ruins via the staircases that led to the lower floors of the ruin. It wasn't that dark due to the light breaking through cracks in the floor above.
Yet as they explored this new portion of the ruins...There was something the air...that just felt off.
And that's when they saw it: Forces of Chaos: Cultists, Chaos Marines, and even a Chaos Lord… … …
...All battling a Tau Battlesuit…
Even with the Risen gone, there was another battle going on at the ruins.
One that the group decided to intervene in...despite the danger of dealing with the forces of Chaos.
*Camera switches over.*
M3: "And that was-"
*A portal opens up in the room, interrupting M3.*
M3: "Ah great...Another portal."
IceBite: "And I can probably guess who it is…"
*From the portal drops… … ...Morgan...but her Dimensional Awakening Incarnation…*
IceBite: "...Yup, thought so… … …"
M3: "Huh, the portal-"
*The portal sudden disappeared, interrupting M3's comment.*
M3: "... ...Never mind…"
DA Morgan: "...Huh? Where am I?"
IceBite: "...I'll go get the others from her world…" *gets up and leaves*
M3: *To DA Morgan* "Hi...I'm M3. You must be Morgan, right?"
DA Morgan: "Yeah...how did you know that?"
M3: "Let's just say...There is a different version of you already here..."
DA Morgan: "...Another version of myself?"
M3: "It's a very complicated mess...If you'll just wait till my partner gets back, We'll be able to hopefully explain what happened."
IceBite: "Back!" *enters, followed by Dark Prelate Mitchell and ZS Connor*
*M3 and Ice explain to DA Morgan where she was, while ZS Connor and Dark Prelate Mitchell explain that the portal dropped her here...except there's no current way back.*
ZS Connor: "So...Are you alright or do you need any medical help?"
DA Morgan: "...I'm alright...just still a bit confused…"
ZS Connor: "Trust me, this is probably the least confusing thing compared to what goes on around here. *To Dark Prelate Mitchell* "You mind helping her get to one of the spare rooms in the Residential Area? I have to talk with Triple M and Ice."
Dark Prelate Mitchell: "...Alright…Let's go…"
DA Morgan: "Alright…" *follows Dark Prelate Mitchell out*
ZS Connor: *To M3 and Ice* "Any word on what's causing these portals to show up?"
M3: "Uh...No, I got nothing."
IceBite: *shrugs*
ZS Connor: "Well, keep me and the other residents updated when you guys do find out, okay?"
M3: "Will do...And uh...You mind leaving? Need to wrap up the segment."
ZS Connor: *Exits the room after hearing that.*
M3: *Looking at the camera* "Sorry about that...Lots of stuff going on these days. But our segment is about over."
IceBite: "Yeah, looks like it...time to turn the camera off, I guess…"
*Camera turns off.*
