Parasite Eve II: Armegedon
A phone call turn out to be a set up…an angry Koizumi…a brief confrontation…Kyo's dead…and Kyuu's about to fall into the same trap…and even he and Ryu are unaware of the Class R leader's passing away…but there's a consolation to this…
See below what to expect…
"What the fuck…? George Koizumi?"
Drake saw Kyo and despite seeing his appearance (front hair dyed yellow white sports jacket, black sleeveless shirt with a white cross emblem, black jeans, black and white rubber shoes, biker gloves), Kyo is still identical to Kyuu so he assumed that Kyo is Kyuu and started to demand an answer from him.
"I'm rather impatient for now, so I'll get straight to the point…where is Yukari Hayasaka?"
"Eh? Why are you asking me that? Isn't Akihabara your territory?"
"Don't screw with me, you ZECT fiend! You raped her and took her away…and even led ZECT Troopers to capture her! Now tell me where she is or I'll open fire!"
"I don't know! And I'm not even a ZECT member! Why are you asking me that question when I wasn't there in the first place?"
"LAST WARNING, KYUU RENJOU! BRING HER OUT OR I WON'T HOLD BACK!"
"FUCK YOU! I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HER DISAPPEARANCE! GO ASK THE POLICE REGARDING MISSING PERSONS, YOU ASSHOLE! AND MY NAME'S NOT KYUU! I'M HIS…"
Losing patience, Drake started firing and Kyo was forced to run around, evading the shots, but then the chase led him towards the cliff with no means of covering, and the younger Renjou almost slipped and was nearing from being thrown off, but then an angry Drake fired again, hitting the Class R leader three times: on the chest, on his lungs, and his stomach, and he slowly fell off the cliff.
Drake just stood there and was about to give chase when his codec spoke which seem to held him back, and startled him a bit upon hearing this yet he remained ignorant, thinking nothing but Yuakri.
"Koizumi…forget him…he's not Kyuu but a decoy…the REAL Kyuu is on his way here…so better go back inside and wait…once he's in place then you spring on him…and I give you my word that he'll admit to his crimes…"
"He'd better…or I'll kill him before he begs for mercy…"
As Drake returned inside the abandoned hotel, Oda was hiding somewhere within the area, smirking, seeing that one threat is erased, and once Kyuu ended up the same as Kyo, then Neo-ZECT can commence the next phase to their plans, and taking out both ZECt and Dan Detective School is going to be a piece of cake.

24: Atarashii Kabuto
While at the Morioka Station, Kyuu was able to help the little girl find her parents, in which they were at the other side of the train station and it took them 30 minutes before the parents and the girl are reunited. The Class Q leader momentarily forgotten about why he was here, as seeing the girl and her father reminded him of meeting his dad nine years ago before spending time with him, but then he recalled everything and decided to head out for the Hanamiki Hotel to meet up with Kyo and his mom.
"Darn…I sure miss dad…but there's no point going back to the past…besides…I get to meet him again…while at Heaven…and even met Grandma…that's good enough for me…I sure wish Kyo would get to meet them…wait…that would mean he'll have to get killed…better be careful at what I'm wishing…"
And so Kyuu left the train station and took a taxi, asking the driver to take him to the Hanamiki hotel. While cruising, the driver reminded Kyuu that they're heading for the hillside, which surprised him a bit. As the trip slowly took them away from the city up are nearing the off-road, Kyuu was rummaging his bag, which showed a few clothes, rations, and the Beetle Zecter, which is on standby mode.
He slowly ran his hand on his waist where the Zecter Belt is fastened around his waist, as he is at loss as to how and why he came into possession of the items, and why he is now the holder though he realized the implications involved.
- - - FLASHBACK - - -
A few weeks ago…
Tsubasa Ozora was outside the Renjou residence, and Kyuu answered the doorbell, surprised to see him. Seeing that the DDS student is alone, he went inside and confided to him his intention which surprised the Class Q leader at what the soccer player has to say.
Tsubasa: "As you might not know, I'm quitting ZECT. I realized that this isn't my calling and that my place is in the soccer field and not in the battlefield. So I'm quitting for good. And as I told you before…I'm giving the Zecter items to you. You're the only one qualified to use it."
Kyuu: "Why Me? I don't deserve it!"
Tsubasa: "Yes you do…you're more qualified than anyone else. And the fact that Neo-ZECT has created advanced versions of NMCs, and someone has to stand up to them. I know for a fact that you might use either of your "other forms" to stop those things…and that might raise the possibility of those cells to get stronger and control you…so this Zecter is your best option since it gives you a lot of protection and very low risks…"
Kyuu: "But what about ZECT? They might get pissed…"
Tsubasa: "I'm aware of that…but I left a note to Yamaki about this…and to the Council…and to help alleviate matters, why not join ZECT? Remember, you'll get a lot of privileges there, and since your school's alliance with ZECT is still in effect, I'm sure they'll soften up a little…here…take them, it's yours. Take good care of them. I won't stick around longer as my flight is due in 45 minutes."
Kyuu: "Uh…I'm not sure I'm up to this…"
Tsubasa: "I'm sure you will…goodbye, then…thanks for everything and say hi to your schoolmates for me…I won't forget you."
The soccer player left immediately and Kyuu went inside the house, placing the box on the table and glances at the items, as he is unsure on what to do with it, and wondered if he really deserves them. For now, he realized that he is now the new Kabuto.
- - - END FLASHBACK - - -
Within 20 minutes Kyuu arrived at the Hanamiki Hotel and after paying the taxi driver Kyuu went to look around the scenery, seeing that they're at the hills, but then his detective hunches kicks in. He can tell from the exterior of the hotel that no one's been using the hotel or a long time, as he could see dust particles on the windows, and that no one else is around, not even a bellboy is looking out for new customers.
"This is bad…neither Kyo nor mom is here…I'd better go take a quick check…"
Going inside, his suspicions are confirmed. The hotel is abandoned, as not one person is here, the whole inside of the hotel is covered with dusts and webs, and not even a single electricity is turned on. Moreover, he checked the entire floors (about 8 floors) which is devoid of any tenants and realized that he and Kyo were suckered into falling for a trap.
"Darn…! If mom or Kyo aren't here…NO! Something must have happened to them!"
Worry hit him as he went outside of the hotel and looked around, only to find his younger twin brother's things, and found his motorcycle sidecar parked behind the hotel. As he looked around a laser blast greeted him and it only hit the ground near his feet. The Class Q leader stared wide-eyed seeing who is there to greet him: Mask Rider Drake.
"What…? Koizumi? What's the meaning of this?"
"I should be asking you that question…what's the meaning of this? You let fame get to your head…and now you took away Yukari and raped her…worse, you're in cahoots with ZECT and caused all this trouble. It's a pity my concern for Yukari made me get a little ballistic and accidentally shot your decoy…"
"What decoy? Yukari Hayasaki kidnapped…wait! Are you saying I kidnapped and raped her? That's absurd! I'd never stoop that low! And I was at DDS when I heard the news about the explosion at Akihabara!"
"Don't play games with me! I saw it all! An eyewitness showed me proof that you did this! So spare me the anger and frustration acting and bring out Yukari now! Or else I'll attack you like that decoy I encountered earlier!"
"I told you I don't know anything about her disappearance! If you want, I can get you witnesses that can prove my…decoy? What decoy are you saying? You're not making any sense!"
"A kid who looked just like you…"
"Kyo…WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BROTHER?"
"Enough talk! You're not leaving until you bring her out! And if you keep stalling me for five more seconds I'll make you admit your crimes by force!"
The DDS student realized that he was set up and now he's stuck. And when he glanced at the motorcycle sidecar, and Kyo's bag, he slowly glanced at the cliff, and saw flies hovering over what appeared to be bloodstains and this shocked him a lot. But his musing was interrupted when a warning shot fired and he managed to evade it, and now he had to take a stand and end the fight in order to find Kyo and to clear his name.
"I told you…I was set up…and I'm not affiliated with ZECT!"
"Lies won't cover your hide, you brat…either you disclose to me Yukari's whereabouts or I'll throw you off the cliff. And this is the last time I'm asking you nicely…as I'm now losing patience…"
"And so did I…"
At that moment the Beetle Zecter flew out of Kyuu's bag and struck Drake on his facial helmet that stunned him for a few moments as the mechanical beetle flew towards Kyuu's hands as he raised the hem of his shirt, revealing the Zecter Belt and is ready to initiate his transformation.
"I don't want to fight you…but you left me no choice…my brother's life is at stake…and it appeared that someone used me to commit a crime on your friend…but I'm going to clear my name…but I won't use my Parasite Form…I'm not that foolish to stoop that low…like you when you attacked my brother because he is my identical twin brother…Henshin!"
Kyuu inserted the Beetle Zecter on the belt in a horizontal fashion, and because Tsubasa somehow altered the voice input of the Zecter and Kyuu giving his voice command, the Zecter now responds only to Kyuu's voice and it spoke to confirm the teen's voice command.
Beetle Zecter: "HENHSIN…"
Tachyon energy flows around the Class Q leader's body and within moments he is encased in black and crimson tights-like armor while his upper body and head are covered in silver, bulky armor. Kyuu Renjou has become Mask Rider Kabuto…in Masked Form.
"Wha…? I didn't expect you to have the Beetle Zecter in your hands…you really are in cahoots with ZECT!"
"I told you…I'm not with ZECT…"
"Screw the lies!"
"You know…you're getting irritated…and you let anger control you…"
"Because you caused me to be angry…you took Yukari…then raped her…now I'll make you pay…even if I have to go to the darkness just to get her back…!"
"Oba-chan told me this…"One that drowns in oneself will eventually fall to darkness…". You will fall to darkness and so is Ms. Hayasaka unless you calm down…if you do…we'll talk things over so we can get to the bottom of…"
"ENOUGH! HAVE AT YOU!"
Drake opened fire at Kabuto but because of Kabuto's Masked Form, he wasn't affected but he went on the defensive and ran around, trying to find cover in order to disable Drake and calm him down or things might get worse. He is unaware that Kyo is already dead, and this might be a big blow to him once he finds out about this fact.

Kyo's dead…
Kyuu vs. Koizumi…
The new Kabuto is born…
What would Kyuu do once he finds out that his younger twin brother is dead?
Preview:
Help is on the way as Kojiro Hyuga was able to find out about the Renjou brothers' predicaments and heads off to Morioka to help. Of course this requires ZECT's assistance as Neo-ZECT is likely there to make sure Kyuu gets killed.
Drake and Kabuto continues the fight, and neither on is letting up.
Note:
Okay...I got at least four votes urging me to keep Kyo alive...but for the sake of the plot...I killed him. But that doesn't mean he's out of the fic, as he's slated to show up as a spirit in the next few chapters...
