Seeds Of Agito

The Cursed idol arc intensifies as Pluto makes its long-awaited debut while Umi and the Overlord of Darkness confronted each other again, attempting to corrupt her, and here you get to see if she would give in or not, while Kyuu gets to learn something surprising from Yukihira, which would cause him to get awkward around her.


As the two teens continued their trek, they noticed a room with the lights on and they checked on it, and when Kyuu peeked, he saw Reika was barely breathing and her skin is pale-colored, about to lose consciousness so the two went inside to open the door, but it was shut tight.

"Yukihira…let's ram our way through!"

The two teens did but were unable to get through, and surprisingly, a Godzilla mascot was about to join the two when Kyuu, in desperation, did a flying kick which knocked the door down, surprising her but then she checked on Reika and realized she's about to lose her life.

"Quick! Call for help while I give her CPR! Now!"

Nodding, Kyuu did so and left, and the Godzilla mascot happened to be Kotaro Nanami in disguise and stood at the hallway to avoid being noticed.

"Is it just me, or did Kyuu gotten strong al of the sudden? With his size and built, there's no way he could bring that door down with just a flying kick…"

A few minutes later, an ambulance arrived and Reika was taken to a hospital, while the other participants in the idol contest are starting to get shaken, fearing that one of them might be the next to be targeted, while Kyuu watched the ambulance leave, while clutching his belly at the same time, and he suddenly recalled seeing Hikaru and Umi suffered the same bout as his, but then noticed that the two elder teens no longer suffered and he wondered how that happened.

"After this case is solved, I've got to ask them what they did on how and why they no longer suffered from the body pain I felt…wonder if Chinese herbs played a part in their recovery…"

At the same time, Umi Ryuuzaki was walking home and sneezed, feeling that someone is talking about her, and then she kept going, having visited a relative, but since she is alone, walking home is quite far as she had just left Nagoya. Luckily, she recently won a raffle contest and her prize was a Yamaha motorcycle and she was fine with it, since she used to ride a bicycle before reaching her teens.

"Good thing I won this bike…or I'd be in trouble if there are no rides to wait…"

All of the sudden, an ambush took place as the Centipede Lord appeared and nearly sank its fangs at her neck but she evaded it, and as she got up, the Centipede Lord began to do a finger-sign gesture, and she guessed correctly on what her attacker's intentions are.

"Sorry…I have no intention of laying my life to a murdering monster like you! HENSHIN!"

For the first time ever, she did a cross-arm gesture, her hands facing her shoulders in a claw-like posture and her body changed, becoming Gills, and she began to fight the Lord ferociously, and the fight began. However, with several "legs", the Centipede Lord managed to hold down Gills, but she used her hands to keep the Lord's fangs from sinking into her body, so she opened her "mouth" and bit the Centipede Lord on his neck, and the attacker screamed in pain, forcing him to release her and he clutched his wound, and there Gills jumps up, the heel spike appeared and stabbed it onto the Centipede Lord's head, and soon he exploded.

Seeing that there are no other attackers, Gills reverted back to being Umi and boarded her motorcycle and left, not noticing that the Overlord of Darkness is watching her, seeing that he is merely testing her to see if there's a chance of corrupting her. After that he left, awaiting for his "emissaries" to return to know if there are news about their tasks being performed or failed.

It was five in the morning and Kyuu got up early, having lost most of his drowsiness because of last night where he and Yukihira managed to save Reika from death at her room, but this further intensified their resolve to solve this case, feeling there's a deeper connection. He had to dig more for more clues to find out if attempted murder is involved and whether the "curse" is nothing more than a cover-up.

As he was brushing his teeth, he glanced at the mirror and saw the scratch marks on his chest, though the wounds are still a little fresh, it dried up and he could still feel some pain, and he was still in a state of surprise at what he just recalled.

"Geez…last night sure was a wild one…I partially make out with Yukihira…we almost had intercourse but I had to put it off because we're not a couple and that we're supposed to solve this case…then I sensed that something was amiss and we saw Reika on the brink of death…we couldn't barge the door yet I accidentally did a flying kick and the door was slammed open…and there Yukihira gave her first aid…after that she went back to her room and gets some sleep…and me…man, I wonder why all of the Unknown are after me…what do they see in me that made them go after and attack me…"

As he took a bath, he almost winced aloud as the water hits his chest wounds, and pain stung him all over though he had to bear the pain as he soaped his body and washed it again with water and got out, and had to clean the wounds again before putting his clothes on and left, going to continue his investigation.

Elsewhere, Yukihira was at the food stand and saw Kyuu walking and noticed him clutching his chest, and could see that he was wincing in pain, and she was staring to feel concern for him, especially after what she saw last night.

"Kyuu…"

34: Shīrudorūmuasaruto o kaiketsu suru

Outside the auditorium, Kyuu was sitting on a bench still clutching his chest, his body sweat is starting to irritate his chest wounds, and now he had to come up with an alibi to Yukihira, the rest of Class Q and to his mom about the chest wound, knowing it wasn't an ordinary scratch, but then Yukihira came and gave him a pastry as breakfast, which he took it and thanked him. Then a series of conversation took place.

"Still haven't gotten a breakthrough?"

"Yeah…"

"Hey, Kyuu…"

"Yes…?"

"Why did you pretend to be a detective fan instead of telling them you're from DDS?"

"Principal Dan told me not to until he or me…depending on the situation…feels that it'll be made known when the right time is up. It's something we detective students should be careful when investigating high-profile cases."

"Geez…that's like my uncle…"

"Uncle…?"

"Yes…and you'll be the first to know…I'm his niece…"

"SERIOUSLY?"

"Surprised?"

"Uh…yeah…"

As flashback scenes popped up, it is revealed that Yukihira is the niece of Principal Dan, as Dan is the elder brother of Yukihira's mother, and it is also revealed that there were several siblings in the Dan family, hence Dan is several years older than Yukihira's mother.

It was also further shown and told by Yukihira that Dan was against her decision to join DDS due to its dangers, but had to accept her because of her credentials, and only Dan, Katagiri and Nanami know of this and asked her to keep the relation a secret.

Kyuu was still in a state of disbelief, but then another conversation took place and this bombshell caused the 14-year old to stood up and was surprised, but then the 17-year old Class A leader said it was no big deal, especially after witnessing the events last night.

"You…saw…"

"Yes…I did…"

- - - FLASHBACK - - -

After midnight…

After Reika was taken to a hospital, Yukihira noticed that Kyuu went back to Momoko's room to investigate and she hid behind the bushes to see what's he doing, and after some five to ten minutes he got out and most of the people here went back to bed. As the Class Q leader was about to go back to Yukihira's room, the Wolf Lord appeared and is walking towards Kyuu, doing a finger-sign gesture, and moved a bit fast, clawing the DDS student's chest, and blood stained his shirt as he wobbled back.

A few kicks from the Lord sent Kyuu careening against the wall, and Kyuu managed to step aside, and the Lord stopped on his track, but Kyuu, whose latent power kicked in again, punched the Wolf Lord on the head, via his cranium, and he exploded, and not wanting to cause a scene, he quickly left, just as security guards came after hearing the explosion, and are baffled to see nothing but smoke. There she went back to her room, sneaked inside and saw Kyuu washing the wounds off, and is NAKED. She blushed seeing his naked backside, but saw the wounds on his chest, and she became concerned though she had to stay hidden as to not alarm him.

But she blushed further as she gets to see his NAKED front side…in full view.

"Wah…he even shaved himself…and his birdie's too cute…wait..am I fantasizing him…?"

She went back to her bed and went to sleep as Kyuu went to bed a minute later after putting ointment on his chest. He had to stay silent ignoring the pain as he couldn't sleep comfortably because of his fresh wounds.

- - - END FLASHBACK - - -

Kyuu blushed deeply and was hyperventilating as his "hidden treasure" was found by her, and though he wouldn't mind it, he wasn't sure now since she is the niece of Principal Dan. Then both noticed that the event is pushing through and both split up to find more leads. Inside the Gozilla suit, Nanami was giggling at what he just heard, and couldn't help but feel his spirits raised,

"Kyuu…you're one lucky kid…I wouldn't be surprised if you and Dan-sensei would end up as your uncle-in-law…"


Later in the day, Umi woke up at the same junkyard where she was first sent there, and then recalled, as she was assaulted by the Hammerhead Lord, and though she landed a critical blow, the Lord "hammered" her and she was knocked out, but with the damage he received, the Lord retreated for now. As she got out, she was greeted by the Overlord of Darkness, and a heated conversation took place.

"I have a proposition for you…join me and be my emissary…and you'll not only be spared…but I will consider letting you keep that Agito power…Gills. What do you say…that way my other emissaries will leave you alone, and it won't be very bothersome to you…"

"And my answer is no."

"Are you really that stubborn…Magic Knight of the Water? You know humans are nothing more than garbage of a life form…"

"How…? Who are you? What do you know about us humans? Are you from Cephiro?"

"It matters not…but I ask you one last time…will you join me? If you choose to oppose me…I'll only end up taking that Agito power from you…you'll regret it if you deny me…"

"I already have…if you're here to commit murders…which I think that's the case with those Unknown killing people…then I'll gladly oppose you…just as I oppose them…"

"Unknown…not a bad alternative for my emissaries…you're loss then…bask your powers for now…for the next time we meet again…I'll take the Agito powers from you by force…"

The Overlord of Darkness disappeared before Umi could act, and she now wondered why she was approached by him. Moreover, since she has never met Agito, she is unaware of Agito's existence, and is unaware that Agito is Hikaru. She decided to go home and get some rest, as she realized that she spent the night here and her parents will worry into thinking she went missing again.


Back at the room where Reika had previously used, Yukihira summoned everyone and told them her analysis where carbon dioxide is used to attempt murdering Reika, but then hit a snag as the candle used didn't turn out to be what Yukihira assumed that was the cause on attempting on Reika's life, and the rest left, and a dejected Yukihira left as well, refusing Kyuu's offer to assist her.

Kyuu then toggled with his DDS handbook to gets some ideas, but then something happened, as he felt his body heating up and pain enveloped his belly, and a minute later a glow was shining over his belly, and the 14-year old was getting scared at what is happening again, but to his shock, a belt was formed, similar to Agito, but after two minutes it disappeared, and the body pain subsided. After seeing the belt he recalled seeing Agito up close and then something hit him.

"No way…am I…like Agito…?"

He shook his head and looked at his DDS handbook and then went to Momoko's room, and after a thorough search, he recalled something and believed he found the key to the mystery. He stormed out of Momoko's room to find Yukihira.


Meanwhile, Yukihira was being tied up after she was searching for a clue near a huge garbage bin, but someone attacked her and she was knocked out. With no one around, the attacker stripped the Class A member of her clothes and threw it inside the bin and placed her inside a huge crate on top of a wheeled cart, then set the garbage bin on fire so as to burn out whatever is inside of it.

(2nd Ending song from Kamen Rider Agito)

Mayonaka ni mezameta

Yukihira sure blew out a lot of bombshell…telling Kyuu her relation to Dan…her witnessing Kyuu's battle with the Wolf Lord and now she's assaulted.

Kyuu also had a shocking revelation…he definitely has Agito powers! A belt similar to Agito appeared, yet it disappeared after, though there's no change yet for him…but it doesn't mean he's instantly an Agito.

Umi encounted another Unknown, and she managed to drive him away, and yet this led her to another face off with the overlord of Darkness. Now that she made it clear to oppose him, she is now among his hitlist, as he vowed to take her Agito power by force.


Preview:

Class Q joins the fray and they solved the case…but then Pluto makes its finally, long-anticipated debut, and this would give this fic a two-way villain fest.

Also, a new Lord appeared and again Kyuu's the target, so expect some tense moments to take place. Lastly, the triangle between Kyuu, Megumi and Yukihira intensifies, and the Class Q leader is tirn on who should he choose between the two beauties.
