DECADE CHAPTER PART 5: TRANSMISSION

London

"Out of my way!" declared Musician as he struck down GIN-SHOCKER soldiers inside Big Ben. One by one they fell as he hit them with his Cricket Fork. He sighted the transmitter and smirked.

However, a beetle-like Cyborg Mutant came out of hiding and swung at Musician who ducked under the attack. He kicked Beetleroid in the side, sending it staggering. "Take this!" Musician stabbed his Cricket Fork through the Cyborg Mutant's stomach and then sent soundwaves vibrating through its body. The Cyborg Mutant exploded.

Musician, satisfied, walked towards the transmitter and with a swing of his weapon smashed it to pieces.

Hong Kong

Zero was on one of the city's many skyscrapers and had located the transmitter. Using his Stinger Needles, he knocked out all the GIN-SHOCKER soldiers guarding it. However, he was met with opposition from Wasproid. Wasproid had similar powers and the two fired barrages of needles at each other. Zero got hit a few times but then realized he was wasting time.

"I have to end this quick!" Zero said to himself. He then, without a care, charged at Wasproid. The Wasp Cyborg Mutant continued to fire but was unable to slow Zero down. Zero then stabbed his stinger into Wasproid's head and the head of the Kaijin exploded.

Zero, satisfied with his kill, found the transmitter and destroyed it with his stingers.

Kuala Lumpur

Slasher was on one of the city's skyscrapers and knocked down GIN-SHOCKER soldiers who were getting in the way. They were not going to let him get to the transmitter but that didn't stop him as he barreled through them. His main opposition, however, was the Crabroid. Crabroid swiped at him with one of its claws only for it to be sawed off by one of Slasher's chainsaws. The Crabroid then received a head butt from the Termite Rider who hauled it up and smashed the monster to the ground. Slasher then stomped on Crabroid's head, hard, flattening it to the ground.

Once he'd dealt with the Crabroid, Slasher found the transmitter and like Crabroid's head smashed it with his foot.

"Where is it! Where is it!" Shinichi frantically asked himself as he stood in front of the monitor console, looking at the monitor screens. He was searching from the Hinamizawan transmitter that Gebok had planted. His hands glided across the keyboard as he brought up the images that were being captured by all the cameras planted in the village.

"Shinichi, calm down," Ranma said as he watched the young boy's hand glide over the keyboard like a maniac.

"I can't!" Shinichi answered, "I have to find it! I can't let Gebok activate it!" He then looked at the monitor that had the Onigafuchi Swamp on it. Zooming in, he found the device had been planted nearby. Gebok didn't even bother to have it covered. It was out in the open. "Got it!" He ran past Ranma, "Come on, Ranma. We have a transmitter to destroy." Ranma followed after Shinichi.

Once outside the clinic, as they were climbing on their bikes, Ranma asked, "So, this village is really important to you, huh?"

"It is," answered Shinichi as he strapped his helmet on. "It's my home, where my friends and family live, and I won't let Gebok destroy it." Ranma saw raw determination in the Rider's eyes, "And I won't let my friends become victims of the syndrome ever again." Shinichi pulled the visor of his helmet on and raced off towards the swamp, swallowed by Ranma, who was puzzled. His friends had been infected before?

Tokyo

In Tokyo Tower's observation deck, Arachnea easily dealt with the bothersome GIN-SHOCKER soldiers. They were all stuck to the wall via webbing. The Flyroid she was fighting was annoying but was easily dealt with. She first blinded it with her corrosive venom and then when it couldn't see she sliced it eight ways to Sunday with her Spider Kama. She then located the transmitter and destroyed it with her venom, watching it melt without a care.

New York

"BOWLING BALL!" Armadillo declared as he knocked away the GIN-SHOCKER soldiers in his way. He was rolling straight towards Bullroid but the Bull Cyborg Mutant managed to stop him with one hand. They were fighting in the observation deck inside the Statue of Liberty.

Armadillo was thrown straight into a wall and made a crater on impact. He shook his head to get the cobwebs out and looked ahead to see Bullroid charging at him with its head down and horns pointed at him. "Crap!" Armadillo cursed and then rolled himself into a ball before rolling away to escape. Bullroid gave chase. Armadillo rolled up a wall and then gravity took over as he plummeted down. He unrolled himself and elbowed Bullroid in the head with crushing force, smashing the Cyborg Mutant to the floor. Armadillo stepped off Bullroid who got back to its feet and bellowed.

FLASH!

SLASH!

The Cyborg Mutant's head was sliced clean off and when it collapsed, a cute blonde girl was revealed to have been standing behind the now dead Kaijin.

"Thanks, Asmo-chan," Armadillo said, relieved and grateful. "Now, to find the transmitter."

"Oh, I took care of that thing for you already," said Asmodeus. "Now, come on. We're in New York! Wanna go out?"

"OK!"

Paris

Carmen was fighting GIN-SHOCKER soldiers on the observation deck of the Eifel Tower. The transmitter was at the very peak of the tower but these soldiers had gotten in the way. She managed to take a few of them down but was now met with even more powerful opposition in the form of Lobsteroid, a lobster-like Cyborg Mutant. Lobsteroid swung at Carmen with its claw, trying to smash her, but only hit an illusion. Carmen slashed with her scythes but barely did any damage. Lobsteroid then grabbed Carmen by the neck and threatened to throw her off. However, that would not be happening anytime soon.

"Attack Ride: Blast!"

Blue energy shots rained down on Lobsteroid, forcing him to release Carmen. Carmen fell on her rear and gasped for air.

"Let me handle this, cutie," said Diend as he aimed his gun at Lobsteroid. Several rings of cards aligned themselves between him and his target. He then pulled the trigger.

"Final Attack Ride: D-D-D-Diend!"

A green and black burst slammed into Lobsteroid and destroyed the Cyborg Mutant. Carmen was stunned by the power.

"Now, don't you have a transmitter to destroy?" asked Diend. Carmen nodded dumbly and began to climb up the Eifel Tower to the transmitter. As Diend turned, he was met face-to-face with Warren. "Oh, it's you."

"You have something that doesn't belong to you," Warren said sternly.

The two Rider Machines stopped at the swamp and Shinichi immediately went in search of the transmitter. He found it at the base of a tree. "Now, time to destroy you," he said.

Ranma stood behind him and said, "Isn't it strange that this thing is here and unguarded?"

"Guess he got careless," said Shinichi. However, all of a sudden, black bars shot out around them and the bars connected at the top like a peak, trapping the two Riders. "Or not," Shinichi grimaced.

The computer screen on the transmitter turned on and Gebok's face was displayed, "Did you like my surprise, BLACK 13?"

"Gebok, you slime ball!" Shinichi snapped, grasping the bars as he tried to pull them apart. "Damn you!"

"Oh, such language. Well, when I get you back I'll have to reprogram you," Gebok laughed, "After I discipline you, of course."

"Do you really think this little prison of yours is gonna hold me?" scoffed Shinichi.

"Oh, of course not, but it's going to take some time. You see, even if you destroy all the transmitters, I can always set up new ones and have them heavily guarded. It doesn't matter how many you do destroy. As long as I and my broadcasting station still exist, I can still transmit the Hinamizawa Syndrome to the whole world," Gebok informed Shinichi. "You see, the transmitters are just a distraction. Decoys."

"What?" Ranma frowned.

"Decoys," Gebok repeated, "I made a machine that will allow me to broadcast the syndrome through radio and television. Imagine all those families who are just watching TV and listening to their radios, innocently at home, totally unaware that they will be turned into homicidal and suicidal maniacs."

"You sick bastard!" Shinichi snapped.

"Maybe I should start with your mother and your sweet little sisters. How about that girlfriend of yours? I think they'll look nice covered in blood." Gebok laughed.

"Moko Takabisha!" Ranma fired a ki blast at the transmitter, destroying it and ceasing that horrible laugh.

Shinichi fell to his knees. Destroying the transmitters was pointless. "Damn…"

"Hey, Shinichi!" Ranma helped the young man up. "Don't break down on me now. We gotta get out of here."

"Gebok's right," Shinichi said. "Once he activates that machine all the radios and TV's in the world will become a transmitter. That was his plan from the start. How can I stop him?"

"Hey, Warren told me that you never gave up on anything," Ranma reminded. "Don't start on me now. All we have to do is find where he's broadcasting from and bring him down." Shinichi looked up at Ranma, "But first we have to bust out of here."

The light of determination returned to Shinichi's eyes. "OK." He put a hand on one of the bars and concentrated. Slowly, the bars began to retract back into the ground.

Ranma asked. "What did you do anyway? How did you do that?"

"Time reversal," Shinichi answered. "It's my power."

"And you couldn't have done that before?" Ranma asked incredulously.

Shinichi shrugged. He activated his wrist communicator and contacted Warren, "Warren, we have a situation."

"Lay it on me," Warren replied.

"Gebok has a broadcasting machine that will turn every TV and radio on Earth into a transmitter for his Hinamizawa Syndrome. Warren, can you pinpoint where Gebok might be broadcasting from?" Shinichi asked.

"Hold on. We're checking now." There was a pause of several seconds before Warren reported, "Alright, we've got a location of his broadcasting station. It's in…"
