I cannot apologize enough for the delay for this. I was honestly hoping that I would get far enough along with the first Hero V-Cinema, put a trailer here, and then finish that later… but, as you can tell from the month without updates for both this and Hero… that didn't happen… and with me in college… yeah… I don't know how that's going to impact the release of these and all of my other projects.
I'm not going to say much else. I made you guys wait to long for the next Hero chapter. We're starting now.
Fire Emblem belongs to Nintendo, Intelligent Systems, etc. Kamen Rider belongs to Toei, Bandai, etc. All OCs belong to their owners.
Previously on Kamen Rider Hero…
Micaiah: What does it mean to be a Kamen Rider?
Takeshi: ...it's what warriors who fight to protect the freedom of all people are called.
Tiki-chan: What the…?
Takeshi: Who are you?!
?: ...henshin…
=NEO-HERO!=
"Good morning Takeshi," Tiki-chan said with a cheery smile as she floated out of the card holder and up to him… only to see he was still asleep, "Oh… I guess I can let you sleep a bit more…"
It had been at least another hour and Takeshi was still not awake. Tiki-chan began to poke him a little bit, but gasped in worry upon seeing his face turn blue as if he was choking. Tiki-chan flew off to go and get the mystery woman.
The two had returned and saw Takeshi's face look normal, yet Tiki-chan still had a big look of worry over her face as she flew next to him.
"Takeshi…? Takeshi… Takeshi! Takeshi!" Tiki-chan yelled as she was nudging him a bit, "Takeshi!"
He snapped upwards and bonked her to the ground in his start.
"Ow…" Tiki-chan whimpered.
"Oh, sorry," Takeshi apologized as he stood up and helped Tiki-chan, "...where were you?!"
"Huh?"
"I got sent into another world and you weren't there!"
"...I didn't send you into the next world," the mystery woman responded, "You've been asleep for a while now."
"You started to sound like you were in pain, so I went to check on you," Tiki-chan informed.
"...I wasn't dreaming! I encountered Marth, Roy, Ike, Robin and Kamui and they-"
"I don't want to hear about your dreams. Get yourself ready for the next world," the mystery woman said dismissively as she left.
"I can prove it wasn't a dream! I got a new Final Attack Ride card and everything…" Takeshi responded as he went through his card deck, "What? Where is it?! I put it back in here after we beat Validar!"
Tiki-chan simply stared a bit as Takeshi went through his phone's pictures, but couldn't find any of what he saw.
"There's no way that could've been a dream…" Takeshi sighed, "I felt real pain and got injured and…"
"Well… your subconscious might've gotten pulled into that world," Tiki-chan responded.
"...what?"
Tiki-chan floated down to Takeshi's shoulder, "Well… there's some unproven theory that an Outrealm Gate can pull a person's subconscious from their body if they're needed in another world…"
"...I guess that makes sense…" Takeshi said with a slight shrug, "...but it felt to real…"
"Well… we don't need to worry about it. Let's just get ready for the next world."
He simply nodded in response as he looked to the Outrealm Gate in thought before simply sighing.
Kowashitai daijisou ni kakaeta watashi o zenbu (I'm breaking down all the walls I've built up around my lonely heart now) *Takeshi held his phone in his hand before he was seemingly absorbed into it.*
Kimi ga kono kodoku o itami o iyasu no (You're the one that takes it all away, my solitude and all my pain) *His phone was now attached onto his wrist and his Driver was in position.*
Reincarnation Realization *The Kamen Ride Hero card slipped out and into the phone insertion.*
Reincarnation kiete shimaitai (I want to disappear…) *Takeshi now stood on the ground as Kamen Rider Hero.*
Kamen Rider Hero
Nemuranai machi no zawameki aisouwarai no yuutsu (I walk alone through the city of lights, I see the same fake smiles every night) *Takeshi was now back in the real world and had his phone in his hand, playing Fire Emblem Heroes.*
Honne nante itsuka doko ka mienai furi (Cause everyone hides...they run and they hide from their real feelings.) *The game then had all of the characters seemingly vanish. Takeshi then took his phone and put it into position*
Dare datte fuan nante sonna (And everyone's got their stresses too, yeah I know) *Hero was seen punching and kicking various Risen foes, knocking them away, before he turned to see the fractured stained glassed windows of the nine worlds.*
Iwarenakutemo wakatteru (But I already get that's the status quo. I'm breaking down…) *Kamen Rider Marth, Ike, Robin, Micaiah, Roy and Lucina all stood and seemed fractured as well. Hero stood in the center of the six, glancing towards the three without representation.*
Kowashitai daijisou ni kakaeta tsuyogari nante (All the masks that I wear to hide my lonely heart now) *He took the six cards and loaded them into his card scanner, now being armed with the Fire Emblem itself. The cloaked woman walked over to him and simply smiled.*
Demo sunao ni narenai (But what if I'm just lying to myself?) *Takeshi stared at his phone for a moment before he was joined by Tiki-chan, who was initially in her distance form then in her normal form, who then smiled at him*
Mayottemo nayan demo kimi ga motomeru nara (If even now, you still want me when I am hurt,wandering lost in the rain) *Takeshi and the green orb both stood between the worlds, looking towards the six Riders and three silhouetted figures.
Semete kono kodoku o itami o kowashite (The at least help me destroy it all… My solitude, and all my pain) *Takeshi now stood as Kamen Rider Hero and reached out to them, trying to save them.*
Reincarnation Realization *Takeshi was now back in his base and held out the Kamen Rider Hero card.*
Reincarnation umarekawaritai (I want to be reborn) *He then turned towards the reader and gave a simple smile, showing off the Hero card.*
Emblem 10: The Ruined Future
Takeshi and Tiki-chan arrived in the next world and began to roam a bit.
"This place is in even worse shape than Micaiah's world…" Takeshi commented.
"No kidding…" Tiki-chan nodded, "I say we see if we can find anybody to talk to. I have an idea of where we are, but I want to find somebody to confirm if I'm right."
The bluenette nodded and they began to search for any sign of life. They searched high, they searched low, they searched in caves, they searched by rivers, they searched anything that they could find, but there were no signs of anybody but them.
Takeshi began to chew on some gum that he had packed to occupy the time as they continued to look. There was still nothing.
"...is there anyway I can use my phone to track anything?"
"Nope," Tiki-chan responded, "It can't do that."
Takeshi sighed as they continued to walk.
Eventually, they arrived at what looked to be an abandoned village and saw a young woman gathering some food. Takeshi squinted his eyes and saw the young woman had blue hair and was about to head off, but she was surrounded by Entombed.
"Oh no you d-" the young woman began, but she couldn't find her weapon, "...uh oh…"
"Ikuzo…" Takeshi muttered as he was ready to put on his phone, but some Rider in a cloak quickly leapt down and slashed at the Entombed. Takeshi could faintly make out some parts of the armor that the cloak didn't obscure, "Wait… is that…?"
"Rider Slash…" the cloaked figure muttered as energy charged up in their blade, which turned out to be the Falchion, and the cloaked figure slashed away the remaining Entombed.
"Marth…? Can it really be him…?"
The cloaked figure, who was clearly a Rider, spoke to the bluenette in a hushed tone. After a moment, the bluenette pointed over in Takeshi's direction. Eventually, the bluenette hurried over to Takeshi, grabbed his arm, and began to drag him away. Upon getting a closer look at the bluenette's facial features, Takeshi quickly realized what world he was in. The two arrived at a church and got into it quickly.
"...phew…" the bluenette sighed before turning to Takeshi, "Ok… we're safe. Tch… if only I had my spear with me…"
"So… you're Cynthia, right?" Takeshi checked.
"Huh? How did you know my name, priest?"
Takeshi was about to respond before he blinked a bit at what she had called him, "Uh… priest?"
He took a moment to look and see that he was clothed in a white priest outfit. He simply blinked a little bit before turning to Cynthia, "Uh… ok… oh, your question. Uh… your sister told me it. Yeah, that's it."
"Oh, ok," she responded, "Anyway, come on Mr. Priest, my friends will wanna meet you!"
Takeshi nodded before he and Tiki-chan followed after her further into the church. After a moment, taking a moment to make sure she was out of ear-shot, Takeshi turned to Tiki-chan and began to whisper, "I can't believe she fell for that…"
"Well, she was duped into thinking somebody was Chrom when that person lacked any sort of resemblance to him…" Tiki-chan reminded.
"Touche."
Eventually, they arrived in what looked like a makeshift living quarters. Takeshi looked to see that the only one in the room was Inigo.
"Minna!" Cynthia called out, "The priest is finally here!"
Inigo turned towards Takeshi and simply waved. Two other people, who were in the midst of a conversation, had arrived in the room. Takeshi looked and gave a smile upon seeing one of them.
'Hey, it's Inigo. ...oh… same hair color as Frederick. Drat…' Takeshi thought before he got a look at who he was talking with, 'Oh boy, the crazy daughter of the stalker…'
"So… what's your name?" Inigo asked.
"It's Takeshi," he informed, "Uh… what's yours?"
"I'm Inigo, and these are Owain and Noire."
"Nice to meetcha," Noire smiled.
"Takeshi? Hmm… are you a high priest or just a normal priest?" Owain asked, "Because I need to know if we need to use any formal terms."
"...just a normal one…" Takeshi nervously responded.
"Alright," Owain nodded.
"So… is it just you four?" Takeshi inquired.
"My sister's off doing something… and Inigo's little sister is…" Cynthia began to respond before Inigo simply walked off in a huff, "...missing."
"Just… six of you?"
Nods came in response to that.
"Soka…" Takeshi nodded, "Alright. Can you get me up to speed?"
"Didn't the dear queen mention it in the letter?" Owain asked, notably saying 'queen' with a sort of tone of disgust.
"...not all of the message got there?" Takeshi responded.
"Ok," Cynthia nodded, "I'm sure, as you know, the Fell Dragon has ruined our world."
"Grima…" Takeshi responded, before some sarcasm floated through his head 'Thank you to whoever in Celica's time thought it would be a good idea to make Grima…'
"Well… it appeared and kidnapped Inigo's sister…" Noire continued, "We're gonna stage a rescue, but we needed a priest to make the monsters at the path go away."
Takeshi gave a small nod in response to this before he turned towards Owain, "You called your cousin queen. Why's that?"
"Because she acts all high and mighty and thinks she can do anything without help…" he responded.
"He calls me Princess," Cynthia added.
Takeshi was about to respond to that, but ended up just deciding against that.
"We have a path marked for our rescue of Morgan," Noire informed, "We just need you to work your priest magic and we're clear."
"...did you try your magic?" Takeshi sarcastically asked.
"...what magic?"
"...your mother had a great amount of magic that rivaled that of one of the strongest Riders ever…"
Noire gasped before she grabbed Takeshi by his shoulders, "...you knew my mother?"
"...kind of?" Takeshi responded.
"I don't remember anything about her, so please tell me anything you know!" she begged.
"Did you know my parents?" Owain inquired.
"What about mine and Lucina's?" Cynthia added.
"...kind of. I met them at least once…" Takeshi told them, "But… uh… Noire… I didn't see your mom… or your dad…"
Noire gave a sad look as she cuddled her bow a little, "...this is the only family keepsake I own. I got it from my dad."
"Oh," Takeshi nodded before he thought a bit, "...oh…"
"That would mean, due to him being the only archer in Chrom's army, that Noire's father is-" Tiki-chan began before Takeshi let out a heavy sigh, "...Virion…"
"Anyway…" Takeshi started, "Uh… I'd like to know where I should be going. Just to do my… priest-y work…"
"The forest north of the town will contain the fastest way to Grima's base, so clear out the monsters there as fast as you can," Cynthia told him.
"Aye-aye, Cynthia-hime," Takeshi smiled as he headed off.
"I can't believe that idiot hooked up with the stalker…" Takeshi groaned as he and Tiki-chan headed for the forest, "There were at least five other women around him when I was in that world and he goes for the stalker!"
"Well… at least it means she leaves Robin alone…" Tiki-chan responded.
"He could've chosen Sully, he could've chosen Miriel, he could've chosen Maribelle, he could've chosen Panne, he could've chosen Nowi… in fact he should've chosen Panne!" Takeshi yelled.
Tiki-chan just sighed as Takeshi went on yet another rant about the pairings he supported. She just gave a roll of her eyes and began to stare at the surroundings before seeing something nearby.
"Uh… Takeshi?" Tiki-chan began as she poked his shoulder, "I think your rant woke up Grima's monsters…"
(Insert Instrumental: Red Like Roses Part 1)
Takeshi turned to see the monsters walk over. The monsters in question looked like the Ursa Grimm from RWBY, but with the faces of Grima instead of the Grimm masks. Tiki-chan floated a bit behind Takeshi as he took out his card and readied himself.
"Henshin," he muttered.
=KAMEN RIDE: …=
The monsters charged forward to Takeshi upon hearing the term 'Kamen Ride'. Takeshi managed to evade their attacks and pressed the button on his changer.
=HERO!=
Kamen Rider Hero stood ready for combat as the monsters charged toward him. He looked to see about ten of the bear-like creatures around him, but simply held a battle-ready stance. The bear-like creatures charged forward as Hero evaded and gave one a powerful kick to the lower jaw. He then quickly used that bear-like creature as a sort of launching pad to get into the air before he fell back down and shoulder-shoved another of the creatures.
The one he had kicked in the lower jaw tried to slash at him, but Hero had managed to roll out of the way and cause it to slash at one of the other creatures. The bear-like creature that had gotten slashed then began to tussle with the one that had attacked him. Hero gave a small chuckled as he turned to four other bear-like creatures that began to circle around him as if they were wolves. Hero simply readies himself as the creatures charged. He timed himself before jumping out of the way of the charge.
The remaining four glared at him as he goaded them into attacking him. They all charged, but Hero evaded and had them charge into the already dueling groups. The ten bear-like creatures began to fight amongst each-other as Hero smirked and readied a card.
=FINAL ATTACK RIDE: …=
"Ore no hissatsu waza… at long last…" Hero muttered as he prepared himself.
=HE-HE-HE-HERO!=
Hero jumped into the air before he then soared downwards, doing a traditional Flying Side Kick-type Rider Kick, that collided with all ten of the bear-like creatures and made them all blow up. Hero skidded to a stop and smiled as Tiki-chan flew over to him.
(End Insert Instrumental)
"Nice job," Tiki-chan smiled, "This should likely give the monsters a cue to stay away."
"Hopefully," Hero nodded before he had to dodge a gun-shot, "WAGH!"
Tiki-chan quickly hid in Hero's hood out of fear. Hero then turned to see the cloaked Rider holding what looked to be a Musou Saber-styled version of the Falchion.
"So… you're the one that the guy in the white cloak warned me about…" the Rider stated.
"What's it to ya?" Hero responded.
The other Rider simply stood ready for a fight before the Rider raised her right arm and brushed it along where her helmet would be, in a manner similar to how ZyuohGorrilla would lower part of his mask back down to turn into ZyuohEagle. The Rider then muttered two simple words, "...Mask Henshin."
=FLAME…=
"Ara?" Hero blinked before he noticed the Flame Magical Portal appear in front of the Rider, "Uh oh…"
=DRAGON! BURN, BURN… BURN BURN BURN!=
The Magical Portal floated along the Rider's body and then transformed them into Wizard Flame Dragon.
(Insert Song: Just the Beginning)
The false Wizard walked forward, the Falchion now transformed into the WizarSwordGun, and began to slash at Hero. He managed to evade several of the slashes from the false Wizard, but had a bit of difficulty evading gun fire after the false Wizard shifted the blade into its gun mode. Hero attempted to run forward for a punch, but got blocked by a wall of fire similar to the effect of the Defend Ring.
"...heh. That other guy was right… magic is certainly powerful…" the false Wizard muttered as Hero dodged a kick from the Rider.
"Gotta change tactics…" Hero muttered as he evaded another slash, "...let's match fire with fire!"
=KAMEN RIDE: ...ROY!=
Hero-Roy quickly took the Binding Blade to counter slashes from the false Wizard's WizarSwordGun. Hero-Roy was set to try a fiery strike, but quickly canceled it out and dodged an attack, 'Fire would just get absorbed and I'd waste my energy…'
The false Wizard continued to try and slash and kick at Hero-Roy, but he kept dodging. The false Wizard began to growl a little as they kept it up, "Go on and get out of my world, you fake Hero!"
"Oh quiet you!" Hero-Roy responded as he dodged more slashes, "You're one to talk about being a fake, imitating other Riders! I think you're the faker around here!"
"Faker?" the false Wizard responded, "You think you can harness the power of legendary heroes? You aren't good enough to be their fake!"
"I could say the same to you!"
"I'll make you eat those words!" the false Wizard responded, "Mask Henshin!"
Hero-Roy looked a bit nervous before he saw a zipper pop up above the false Wizard and out emerged what looked to be cantaloupe armor, "Uh oh…"
(Change Insert Theme. Insert Song: Toki no Hana)
=MELON ENERGY ARMS!=
The false Wizard then changed into a false Zangetsu-Shin, with the WizarSwordGun shifting into a Sonic Arrow, as the false Rider charged over at Hero-Roy. The false Zangetsu-Shin slashed at him with the Sonic Arrow, kicked him back, and then blasted at him with a powerful shot from the arrow. The force of the blast was enough to knock Hero-Roy back into just Hero.
"Had enough?" the false Zangetsu-Shin responded.
"I'm just getting warmed up…" Hero responded as he evaded some blasts, managing to insert and activate another card as he dodged.
=KAMEN RIDE: ...ROBIN!=
Hero-Robin quickly armed himself with a tome and inserted another card.
=ATTACK RIDE: ...ARCFIRE!=
"Arcfire!" Hero-Robin yelled as he sent out a blast of fire that managed to disarm the false Zangetsu-Shin, "Yosha!"
Hero-Robin then ran up and began to rapidly punch the false Zangetsu-Shin, but got kicked back by the opposition. Hero-Robin then tossed out another few Arcfire blasts, yet they were of decreasing power. He quickly loaded in another card.
=KAMEN RIDE: ...IKE!=
Hero-Ike readied his blade and rapidly struck at the false Zangetsu-Shin with Ike's blade. Despite the false version of the shiroi Kamen Rider managing to reclaim the Sonic Arrow, Ike's blade just proved much more powerful.
"Tch… gonna need a lot more power…" she muttered before doing the same motion again, with Hero-Ike noticing what looked to be a transparent mask of some sort flowing across the false Zangetsu-Shin's face, "Mask Henshin!"
(End Insert Theme)
=MAZARU UP!=
"...crud…" Hero-Ike gulped as a red and blue image flew across the false Zangetsu-Shin's body.
=AKAI KOBUSHI TSUYOSA! AOI PUZZLE RENSHA! AKA TO AO NO KOUSA! PERFECT KNOCK O~UT!=
(Insert Theme: Real Game)
The Sonic Arrow then transformed into the Gashacon Parablaygun and the false Para-DX made quick use of the blade as the false Rider slashed Hero-Ike away as if he was a fly. Hero-Ike went flying through several trees.
"Wow… note to self, find if there are any axe-weilders left in the world. I could use one as a back-up weapon…" the false Para-DX muttered before changing the weapon to its gun mode, "Come on out, fake Hero! I know you're out there!"
Hero remained hidden behind a tree as he considered his options. He quickly checked through some of his cards, "Come on… there's gotta be something that'll give me an edge over this faker…"
"Faker is a rather appropriate term given who we're dealing with…" Tiki-chan muttered as she floated out from his hood, "Got any thoughts?"
"I noticed some sort of… mask that floated over that faker's face when they changed forms. It must be there, but invisible. I gotta try and see if I can pull it back. ...but… nothing I got can get me there fast enough. Robin's more magic focused, Roy's better at close range, and Ike's to slow. Even with that one speed up card…"
"You're clearly forgetting what else you got in the last world," Tiki-chan reminded as she handed him the Kamen Ride card for Micaiah, "She's super fast."
Hero simply held the card in his hand for a moment and began to shiver.
"What's wrong?"
"...I… I'm just…"
"Don't worry. Just go for it!" Tiki-chan smiled.
Hero gave a sigh as he looked at the card again, "Let's hope I keep my gender during and after this."
The gun blasts from the Gashacon Parablaygun ended up obscuring both parties vision before whooshing sounds filled the air. The false Para-DX tried to find Hero, but couldn't see him. However, the false Para-DX got rapidly punched and blasted by some magic as the smoke began to clear.
"Come out here and fight me like a man!" the false Para-DX demanded.
"How about…" Hero's voice began as the smoke cleared and revealed his current form, "I fight you like a woman?"
=KAMEN RIDE: ...MICAIAH!=
"Good one," Tiki-chan complemented Hero-Micaiah.
The false Para-DX angrily growled as she attempted to fire at Hero-Micaiah, but the Rider simply proved to quick. Hero-Micaiah simply got a smug smile under his helmet as he turned to face the other Rider.
"Now then… how about you show me your true face, faker? Or should I say…" Hero-Micaiah began as he dashed forward, knocked away the weapon, and then yanked part of the other Rider's helmet.
The false Para-DX then turned into her true form. The body looked to be a blue dress, or at least a blue top and blue combat skirt, with a cape that was part blue and part red, blue arms and legs like Kiva-la, a belt that resembled Ichigou's that was brown with a light blue center, and a helmet that resembled Super-1's, but with blue eyes, a bit of long blue hair, a gold color instead of a silver color, and a sort of mechanism for the eye-mask the Rider had. The eye-mask itself was now resting atop the top of the Rider's helmet while she nervously held the Falchion.
"Kamen Rider… Lucina…"
*As the instrumentals slowly began, Takeshi stared at the dark room with the inactive portal.*
Embrace the dark you call a home, *Takeshi held out the Hero card and was joined by Tiki-chan.*
Gaze upon an empty, white throne *They looked to the portal, which was inactive and then slowly showed Kamen Rider Lucina's image*
A legacy of lies, *The two were being watched by something in the shadows*
A familiar disguise *Takeshi turned and then saw the mysterious woman before he was again shoved into the portal.*
Sing with me a song of conquest and fate *Takeshi, now Kamen Rider Hero, was standing in between various worlds and seeing the fractures to all nine of them.*
The black pillar cracks beneath its weight *He could see the nine Riders all facing away from him before they faded as if they weren't even there.*
Night breaks through the day, hard as a stone *Hero and Tiki-chan stood in a dark room in confusion before they slowly walked out of it*
Lost in thoughts all alone *The two simply continued forward.*
"Wow! Talk about a shock that… I saw coming. I mean come on… the chapter's title was 'The Ruined Future' for a reason…" Tiki-chan commented, "But, regardless, it's time for the Explanation Corner!"
She then sat next to a clock with a CD player.
"Today is gonna be about insert themes! Songs that play in the background while a fight goes on," Tiki-chan smiled, "I believe they've been in both Kamen Rider and Super Sentai since around the start. Insert themes are songs that either have lyrics or are instrumentals that play during a certain point. Example… the ever iconic Double Action Sword Form song plays when Den-O Sword Form is doing something."
She got a weird look from somebody behind the camera.
"Takeshi let me listen to it sometime ago. It's catchy," Tiki-chan giggled before she twirled, "Super Sentai has them too, but they're not as big. They typically come in alongside the sixth Ranger, just to add to the cool. And it's not just Kamen Rider and Super Sentai that do it. Other shows do it too."
A bit of We Are Xros Heart began to play in the background.
"See?" Tiki-chan smiled, "And it's not just Japanese shows."
We Are Xros Heart paused and I Burn from RWBY began to play.
"Cool, huh?" Tiki-chan smiled before she turned to somebody off-camera, "That is the clean version, right?"
A thumbs up came in response.
"Alright," she nodded before turning back to the camera, "But the best sort of time when a song plays is if it's the main theme when something awesome is gonna happen! That's when you know you're in for a real treat!"
She smiled as she floated down next to the CD player, "Well, I'm gonna relax with some tunes. Hope you all enjoyed the show. Oh, and big apologizes for the wait. No hard feelings?"
Tiki-chan gave a cute smile before the transition from her segment occurred.
Jikai, Kamen Rider Hero…
Takeshi: How is she doing that?
Tiki-chan: I have an idea…
Lucina: I'm nobody when compared to my ancestor… I give hope by not being myself.
Takeshi: Have a bit of faith in yourself. Your friends have hope because of you...

Kamen Rider Hero Heroic Tales
Swordsmen Sentai Emblemranger
Now Out
Takeshi: ...I swear if I encounter the GoRiders, I'm leaving this world and not looking back...
Gabutyra roared as the Kyoryugers posed, showing Ankydon roaring.
Hero: That looks pretty bad...
Hero posed with Tiki-chan and Kamen Rider Lucina before they slashed the screen to show Hero-Micaiah dashing at Kamen Rider Para-DX, yanking off what looked to be a mask to cause her to turn back into Kamen Rider Lucina.
Torin: So… she stole your shtick of turning into other Riders? Wonder if you can sue...
All the heroes came together, KyoryuRed and Hero shaking hands before posing
SUPER HERO TIME! SEE YOU NEXT TIME!
I cannot apologize enough for the wait. I had planned to try and get this finished not long after I finished the first Heroic Tale, but then school work got a bit much… and then I had a degree of motivational issues. I couldn't get my focus back here.
I hope we can try and get back to bi-monthly updates, but I can't promise anything with how my school work schedule is looking. I'll try and get as many chapters out as I can in December, since I'll mainly be off that month.
Ok… onto our chapter. Some behind the scenes stuff for it… it was originally just going to be Lucina, Cynthia, Morgan, Inigo and Owain in this world… then I began to just curiously go through some Support Conversations. There was something… oddly cute about Tharja's Support Conversation with Virion. So… Noire came into the scene. There will be alterations to her character, just due to long term plans, but I will note that with this… one thing for the future of Hero actually did get altered. You'll see in the future.
About Lucina's form in the cloak… it's a kind of incomplete version of Kamen Rider Marth. You'll see why it's like that next chapter.
The reason why she turned into Wizard Flame Dragon, Zangetsu-Shin and Para-DX Level 99… well… I decided to embrace the fact this is a fanfic and have a bit of fun. Plus… I just love those insert themes. Last Engage and Missing Piece are also great… as is Rise Your Flag… and Ranbu Escalation… and a lot of others.
The monsters here… well… I have recently been a bit into RWBY (I have no idea why…) and upon seeing the Ursa Grimm… I just got inspired. A few quick asides… me and KKD did something for RWBY Chibi on my DA account. Check it out when you can. Don't the masks of the Grimm kinda look like something from Okami? Something about the coloring…
...it actually took a bit for it to register in my mind that 'Grimm' came from The Brothers Grimm… whoopsie there. Ah well.
Also… the reason why, when Lucina turned into Zangetsu-Shin, she was called 'shiroi Kamen Rider' is because I honestly hate 'Armored Rider'. It just sounds stupid. Heck, I got a laugh out of an early translation of Kamen Rider Taisen where Hongo had said 'Armored Rider? Don't make me laugh.'
Favorite part has to be how Hero used the speed of the Rider who gave him trouble to his advantage. It was certainly something really neat to type up.
Well… today was Thanksgiving. I had a good day. Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade kinda stunk this year, but I had some fun with it. Among the things I'm thankful for… I'm truly thankful for the patience you all gave this story. Thank you so much for waiting. I'll try and give this a better update when I can, but homework will be an issue I need to deal with… college is certainly tough, but I'm gonna go through it.
I hope you all enjoyed this. Again, sorry for the wait.
Just Live More.
