Hey, everyone! Shunya Toshiki here brings a new chapter for Faiz!
I have to tell you guys, I'm deeply excited for the Faiz anniversary movie. I really like the new gear for both Faiz and Kaixa, and I love how they turned the Faiz Phone into a Smart Phone. I can't wait to see that in action.
Also, before you ask, no, I won't include the new Gears from the anniversary for this story. I like to see the movie first before I decide on anything, plus I want to work with the current Rider Gears and weapons, especially Faiz's Final Form.
Anyway, that's enough from me…Cue disclaimer!
I don't own Kamen Rider Faiz and Myriad Colors Phantom World; those belong to their creators. This is for fun, not profit.
Chapter 15: Enter, Delta
It was the middle of the night with a heavy rain and thunderstorm in the sky, and many people were sleeping peacefully in their homes. Except there was a group of three Orphnochs who were Smart Brain operatives running in the streets, almost like they were running for their lives.
"Is she still after us?!" One of them asked.
"I'm not looking!" One answered.
The one who was chasing was riding a type of two-wheel vehicle.
The vehicle resembles a large combat motorcycle with five turbines, it also has three extra turbines in the side. The controls have two handles inside of a circle part along with having a screen along and some buttons between the controls.
This is the SB-VX0 Jetsliger.
The rider of the Jetsliger had been following those Smart Brain agents for a while, she then pressed a button on her controls which ignited the turbines on the Jetsliger's back which sped it up and caught up to them.
She then uses her Jetsliger to jump over and land in front of the three Smart Brain agents as she spun around and stopped on the side which also forced the Orphnochs to stop running.
"And where do you think you're going?" The rider said with a girl's voice before she stood off her vehicle and faced the Smart Brain agents.
Despite the darkness, they were able to tell that she was a Kamen Rider.
At first, they thought it was either Faiz or Kaixa, but then a flash of lightning appeared in the sky that briefly showed the Rider's armor and while they couldn't see a clear view because of the rain and darkness, the Smart Brain operatives were able to tell that they were facing a completely different Rider.
The Orphnochs grit their teeth and change into their Orphnoch forms, ready to fight the mystery Rider before they charge at her, and the Rider did the same.
Just as one Orphnoch punches at her, the mystery Rider lands the first by punching that Orphnoch on the chest, sending him to the ground.
The Rider then dodges the second Orphnoch's attack before she kicks him on the chest forcing him to skid back.
That's when the third Orphnoch had brought out a sword to attack the Rider from the back, but she easily saw him coming and stopped his attack by catching his sword.
"I don't think so." She said before she pushed the sword and punched him a few times.
The Rider then continued her attack on the three Orphnochs by landing powerful punches and kicks on them, before they were now back against a wall.
She then pulls out a blaster weapon from her belt and speaks to it.
"Fire."
[BURST MODE]
The Rider then aims her blaster and fires energy shots at the Orphnochs giving them major damage. Blue flames then appeared around their bodies before they fell to the ground and turned into ash.
With that done, the Rider sighs before she holsters her weapon.
That's when the rain finally stopped, the Rider then looked up and saw that the dark rain clouds had begun to clear up to show the moon along with the starry night sky.
"Didn't think it would be this late. I should head back now. Don't want to be late for my first day of school tomorrow." The Rider said before she sat on top of her Jetsliger and drove away.

({The} end Justi-φ's the means!) (Then the song ends, with the title logo.)
It was another morning for Kazuto along with his friends. He along with Minato and Haruhiko were walking to school together with Ruru on the latter's shoulder as he yawned.
"Honestly…You just had to oversleep again." Kazuto said.
"Don't judge me…The book I was reading was really interesting. So, I lost track of time…" Haruhiko said before he yawned once again.
"But you really need to take better care of yourself. Sleep is important for your health." Minato told him.
"I know…I know…But I don't have to worry about that." Haruhiko said before he looked up at the sky and spread out his arms with a smile on his face. "Once summer break is here…I'll be able to sleep in as much as I want."
"Something tells me that summer may be his favorite time of the year." Kazuto whispers to Minato.
"Agreed." Minato whispers back while nodding.
Ruru was able to hear them which made her snicker in agreement.
As they were walking, another student walked beside them as she moved ahead of them, and Kazuto and the others turned to her.
The student was about their age. She had shoulder length brown hair and light blue eyes. Along with the school uniform she was also wearing black shorts under her skirt.
As Kazuto and his friends looked at her, she then walked through the school's gate and headed to the building.
"Who was that?" Minato asked.
"Can't say. I'd never seen her before. About you?" Kazuto turns to Haruhiko, but he shakes his head.
"I hadn't met her before myself either." Haruhiko told them.
"How strange…" Ruru said as she was curious about this.
"Hmmm…" Kazuto hummed.
When the first bell rang, Kazuto and Minato were in their classroom along with their classmates. That's when their homeroom teacher entered the room and stood in front of his students.
"Good morning class. I know this is sudden…again. But starting today we have a new student joining us today." He told them, and Kazuto, Minato and their classmates were surprised to hear that.
"Three new students in one year? What are the odds?" Minato said.
"You're telling me." Kazuto said.
The teacher then turns to the door to call out to that new student.
"You come in now."
The door opens and the new student enters the room and stands in front of Kazuto and the other students.
To Kazuto and Minato's surprise it was the girl they saw entering the school earlier when they were walking to school.
"It's that girl again." Kazuto said.
"Alright. You can introduce yourself." The teacher told, and the girl nodded before she wrote down her name on the chalkboard and turned back to her new classmates.
"My name is Hoshimiya Aika. A pleasure to meet you." She introduced herself.
The students then begin to whisper to each other.
"Oh wow…she's so cool!" A female student said, and her friend nodded in agreement.
"Yeah! I know, right?"
"She's so pretty…" A male student said with a blush on his face.
"And she's hot!" His friend said.
Kazuto and Minato whisper to each other for different reasons than their classmates.
"Not to sound like that guy. But doesn't she remind you of Koito?" Minato said, and Kazuto nodded.
"A bit. But there's something more different about her." Kazuto told him, and Minato blinked in confusion.
"What do you mean?" He asked, but before Kazuto could answer, the teacher clapped his hands which made the students stop gossiping.
"Alright, that's enough. Try not to give Hoshimiya-san a hard time." He told them.
"Hai." The students responded.
"Okay. Now for your seat…" The teacher said as he looked for an empty desk and found one. "Right there."
The teacher pointed to the empty desk behind Kazuto.
"Do you have any objections to this, Inui-kun?" He asked, and Kazuto shook his head.
"No, sensei. It's fine." Kazuto told him.
"Good. Now take your seat." He told Aika.
She nodded before she moved to her desk and walked past Kazuto. At that moment, both Kazuto and Aika eyed each other and that's when Kazuto noticed something about her eyes before she arrived at her desk and sat down.
"Now with that done. Let's begin class." The teacher said and soon began today's class for his students.
While Kazuto and the other students were taking notes of this, Kazuto would often eye on Aika. He then remembers seeing the look in her eyes, even though she tried to hide it, Kazuto was able to tell her eyes were filled with rage and vengeance.
(Later)
It was now lunch time, and the students of Kazuto and Minato's class began to leave. Hoshimiya Aika was about to do the same as she gathered her notebooks and pencils and put them in her bag.
"Umm…Hoshimiya-san." Aika blinks before she turns to a group of female students standing beside her.
"What is it?" She asked, they looked a bit nervous but one of them spoke again.
"Ummm…We were wondering if you want to eat lunch with us?"
Aika hummed as she thought about it before she shook her head and stood up.
"Sorry. But I have other plans, maybe next time." Aika said before she left while leaving the group of students disappointed.
"Aaawww…"
Kazuto and Minato had watched this before they spoke to each other.
"She really doesn't hold back, does she?" Minato said, and Kazuto nodded in agreement.
"Seems like it."
After leaving their classroom, Kazuto and Minato had met up with their friends and surprisingly Koito was with them, they then headed to the cafeteria together.
As they were walking, Kazuto and Minato had told them about the new student who transferred to their school.
"Really? A new student has transferred to your class?" Mai said a bit surprised by this.
"Yeah. Truth be told, I was surprised by that as well." Kazuto said.
"Oh boy…You don't think she's another Orphnoch or a Kamen Rider as well…" Haruhiko said as this pattern was pretty much familiar to him by now.
"I highly doubt that. It's only a coincidence." Minato said.
"But you can't deny that the possibility is still likely." Kiba pointed out.
"Well…Yeah, I can't deny that." Minato said.
"Which is exactly my point." Haruhiko sighed. "I would rather not have any surprises like that anymore."
"Come on, at least try to man up!" Ruru told him before she turned to Kazuto. "What do you think, Kazu-chi?"
Kazuto hummed as he thought about it.
"Well…I would rather not focus on what-ifs without any solid proof. I like to focus on the task at hand. But there is something about her that draws my attention." Kazuto said, which caused Mai to darkly glare at him and he flinched.
"Is that so? You're not…" Mai said, and Kazuto rapidly shook his head.
"No of course not! It's not like that, I swear!" Kazuto told her.
But Mai wasn't convinced by that as she turned away from him.
"Hmph!"
"Mai, come on…" Kazuto said while the others chuckle at them.
Kazuto then his Phone ringing, he then brought it and saw that the caller was Professor Midorikawa.
"Professor?" Kazuto said before his friends stopped and turned to him.
"Is something wrong?" Kiba asks, and Kazuto turns to them.
"It's a call from Midorikawa-san. You guys go on without me, I need to take this." Kazuto said before he leaves to find an area to have more privacy.
Mai pouted to see him leaving like that.
"I swear…He better not plan on leaving again."
After Kazuto found a spot outside of school to have his private talk, he soon answered Hikaru's call and placed his Phone on his ear.
"Hello?" Kazuto calls out.
"Hey, Kazuto-kun. It's been a while." Hikaru spoke through his Phone, and Kazuto smiles to hear this voice after so long.
"It has, and it's good to hear your voice." Kazuto responded and he could hear Hikaru chuckling.
"Trust me, I feel the same. How have you been? And how is school?" Hikaru asked.
"Well…School's fine so far. But the rest is a bit complicated." Kazuto said before he made sure that no one was around and told Hikaru about what happened in the past month or so.
How he met with his old friend Minato and gave him the Kaixa Gear. How his secret as an Orphnoch was exposed to his friends after being poisoned by Psyga. Lastly, how he reunited with his friend Yuri and how she's helping him as a spy against Lucky Clover and Smart Brain.
"I see. Sounds like you had quite the ordeal after we met." Hikari said, and Kazuto sighed as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Tell me about it. I know I should've let you know about Minato and Yuri sooner, but I was just so busy…" Kazuto said.
"I understand. But you won't have to worry about it. I trust your judgment with this, especially since Minato and Yuri are good friends of yours." Hikaru said.
"Thank you. But I think that's enough about me. How's your hunt for the Orphnoch King going along?" Kazuto asked, but he could hear Hikaru sighing.
"I want to say I had fruitful results…but I would be lying. So far, I have nothing. I called in some old contacts of mine and went with a few leads, but I'm afraid all I had were deadends." Hikaru told him.
"I see." Kazuto said in understanding. "I'm sorry. I know I should be out there, looking for the King myself…But I…"
"Hey, it's alright. You wanted to enjoy your life, I can understand that. Just let me handle finding the King, you just worry about keeping your grades up. I'll let you know if I find anything." Hikaru told him, and Kazuto smiles to hear that.
"Thank you, professor. But if anything happens, be sure to call me, I'll be there in a heartbeat." Kazuto promised him.
"Glad to hear that. But it might be a good thing for you to stay in place, especially with Minato-kun watching your back."
Kazuto blinks to hear that.
"What do you mean by that?" He asked.
Hikaru was silent for a moment before he sighed and answered his question.
"It's about the third belt. The Delta Gear is missing."
Kazuto was shocked by this.
"What? Are you sure?" Kazuto asked.
"I am."
"Oh no…What happened?" Kazuto asked.
"Remember when I said I entrusted the Delta Gear to a friend of mine?" He asked.
"Yeah. It was when we met last time. Why bring that up?" Kazuto asked.
"Well…I'm afraid to say that he's dead." Hikaru told him, and Kazuto was surprised at first and placed a hand on his eyes.
"Damn it…It was Smart Brain, wasn't it?" Kazuto asked.
"Yes, that's the same conclusion that I can come up with." Hikaru said and Kazuto removed his hand.
"If you don't mind me asking, just who was this friend of yours?" Kazuto asked.
"Well, he's not an Orphnoch if you were wondering about that. He was actually human." Kazuto was surprised by that.
"Really?" Kazuto asked.
"Yes. He was an old friend of mine back in junior high, in fact he was my best friend. Even after we graduate from college, we still remain in contact with each other. But then I became an Orphnoch, and joined Smart Brain…I hadn't talked to him for years." Hikaru said with some sadness in his voice.
"I see. But was there another reason that you entrusted the Delta Gear to him?" Kazuto asked.
"Yeah, there was. You see, believe it or not, he was a police detective. Not only that, but he's been investigating unsolved murder cases for years. Murders that were caused and hidden by Smart Brain." Hikaru told him.
"You don't say? Interesting." Kazuto said.
"It was because of that, I figured there was no better person I can trust the Delta Gear with. I managed to send it to him using a private delivery company. I also gave him a letter with it, I didn't tell him much, only that he must protect the Delta Gear no matter what." Hikaru told him.
"I see. But what happened to him?" Kazuto asked.
"Well…shortly after I gave the Kaixa Gear to you, I went to my friend's home to get the Delta Gear. I figured we may need it sooner rather than later. But after I had arrived the house was badly damaged and most of his evidence was destroyed." Hikaru said.
"Do you think it was one of Smart Brain's agents or a common hitman?" Kazuto asked.
"Most likely the latter. The work was a bit too sloppy for a regular agent. But either way, he was most likely killed by an Orphnoch because he must have been close to discovering their secret long before I gave Hoshimiya the Gear."
"I see." Kazuto said before he blinked. "Wait…Is that really his name? Hoshimiya?"
"Yes…That's correct. His name is Hoshimiya Souta. Why ask?" Hikaru asked.
Kazuto didn't answer as he was in deep thought about this.
'Detective Hoshimiya who was killed by Smart Brain. Hoshimiya Aika who just transferred to my class. Definitely can't be a coincidence.' Kazuto thought to himself to make a mental note to keep an eye on Aika from now on in or out of class.
"Is something wrong?" Hikaru asked.
"It's nothing. Anyway, do you think Smart Brain got it back?" Kazuto asked in concern.
"Doubtful. If they did, they would've used it against us by now. But we can't rule out that possibility just yet. Just in case, be on your best guard." Hikaru told him.
"I will. Thank you." Kazuto said.
"Also, there's one more thing I should tell you about." Hikaru told him, and Kazuto blinks to hear that.
"What is it?" Kazuto asked.
"It's about your friend, Kiba Yuji." Hikaru said, and Kazuto blinks to hear before he explains what he means by that.
Unknown to Kazuto, is that his new classmate, Hoshimiya Aika was secretly watching him from a hiding spot and overheard his conversation with Hikaru. She was deeply interested in it, especially the parts about Smart Brain and her family name being mentioned.
"Now what is this about?" Aika said as she looked at Kazuto in suspicion.
(Later)
After being given a job from Arisu, Kazuto and his friends were heading to the area where some Phantoms are causing trouble at a shopping district.
"To think the reward for this is two bags of rice. I really hope we'll get extra for this." Mai said which made the others chuckle in amusement.
"Man, you really do like your rice." Minato commented.
"That's just what she's like…" Haruhiko said and Mai heard him, she soon gave Haruhiko a cobra twist once again. "I give! I give! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
They then assume walking while Haruhiko rolls his shoulders.
"Well, let's just be thankful it's not squids this time." Kiba said.
"Yeah…I don't think I could handle having ink in my mouth again." Minato said.
"Me too." Reina said.
Kiba chuckles before he notices that Kazuto was quiet for a while before he turns to him.
"Is something wrong, Inui? You've been quiet for a while." Kiba said, and Kazuto blinked.
"Oh, I did. It's nothing. I've just been thinking about my talk with Midorikawa." Kazuto told him.
"I see." Kiba said before he turned forward once again.
As they were walking, Kazuto eyed Kiba and remembered the conversation he had with Hikaru.
(Flashback)
After hearing the details about Kiba from Hikaru, Kazuto was a bit surprised at what he learned.
"What? Are you sure about that?" Kazuto asked.
"Well, it's from an old Smart Brain data drive, but yes. There's no mention of a Kiba Yuji or any Orphnoch with horse features anywhere before he turned. In simple terms, he shouldn't exist."
Normally, Kazuto would find that impossible, but after his experience as a Kamen Rider and being an Orphnoch himself, he was willing to believe it.
"But didn't you say it was old data? He may have become an Orphnoch before you found it." Kazuto told him.
"Possibly. But either way, you may need to be careful around him. He's not what he appears to be." Hikaru told him.
(End of flashback)
Although he doesn't want to give any of his friends suspicion, he can't help but wonder what sort of secrets Kiba's been hiding from him and the others, especially how he got his Orga Gear and about his past.
Unknown to Kazuto and his friends, the new transfer student Aika was secretly following them from a distance and in hiding.
Kazuto and his friends had arrived at the shopping district where they were chasing after monkey-type Phantoms.
Mai was chasing after three of them as they ran away from her.
"Why you…Get back here!" Mai said.
The monkey Phantoms then jump on top of a fruit shop, they then begin throwing fruit at Mai, but she dodges them before she smirks and points at the monkeys.
"Huh! You…" Mai said before a tomato smashed into her face and the monkey Phantoms laughed at her.
Mai then throws the tomato to the ground as her face and hair was now red and wet thanks to the tomato's juices, she then angrily glares at the monkeys with an intense fire in her eyes which frighten them.
"Oh…So you think you're funny, do you?!" Mai exclaimed and the monkey Phantoms cry out in fear as they run away from her and Mai chases after them. "Get back here!"
Kazuto is seen avoiding some junk being thrown at him by three monkey Phantoms.
"Okay, I think you had enough fun." Kazuto said before he uses his powers to grab hold of the monkey Phantoms and pull them close to him, he then absorbs them into his body. "And that's three down."
Kiba is seen chasing after two of them before they jump on top of a shelf from a fish market, they then pick up a large fish and throw it at him, it hits but it was actually an illusion of Kiba as it shatters into pieces.
While the monkey Phantoms were confused by this, the real Kiba was behind them and grabbed onto them to pick them up.
"You shouldn't waste a good fish like that." Kiba told them.
Minato then uses his powers to blind two monkey Phantoms with a bright light, he then uses this chance to pick them up.
"All too easy." Minato said.
As Mai continued to chase after the three monkey Phantoms, the eight remaining ones had surrounded Haruhiko, Reina, Kurumi, and Ruru as they moved around and surrounded them.
Haruhiko then begins to count their numbers.
"One…two…three…four…five…six…seven and right." Haruhiko said before he smirks. "Perfect! This will be my perfect chance to use my new summoning."
"A new summon?" Reina blinks to hear that.
Haruhiko then uses his chant.
"Admonition then, admonition now, admonition henceforth. Let the Lord admonish you! Open, Open…Open, gates of Hell! Invoke, Cthulhu!" Haruhiko soon summons forth a new Phantom as it appears from the gate.
The Phantom was a pink and cute looking octopus with blue eyes.
"An octopus?!" Ruru said.
"Go, Cthulhu!" Haruhiko ordered.
The octopus then uses its tentacles to grab onto each of the monkey Phantoms around Haruhiko and the girls.
"Yosha!" Haruhiko said.
Mai then manages to catch the three monkeys she was chasing as she approaches them along with Kiba, Minato, and Kazuto.
"Okay. We've caught the rest, Reina-chan." Minato said.
"I'm on it." Reina said before she uses her powers to devour the Phantoms, after she is done, Reina wipes her mouth with her handkerchief. "Hmm…They didn't taste that good."
"Yeah. I guess they wouldn't." Minato said.
"Then maybe next time, we'll go have some all you can eat BBQ again." Mai said as she cleans herself with a towel, Reina smiles to hear that.
"Of course!" Reina said in some excitement.
Kazuto and Kiba then look at Haruhiko's new summon.
"Care to explain about your new friend here, Haruhiko?" Kiba asked.
"Yeah. This is Cthulhu, I've been working on this one for a while." Haruhiko said with a proud smile.
"You don't say." Kiba said.
"Though I never knew you would do cute things like this." Kazuto said and Haruhiko lowered his head.
"Actually, it was meant to be a kraken. But it just turned out like this." Haruhiko said as he looked at Cthulhu as well.
"I see…" Kazuto said.
In her hiding spot, Aika had continued to spy on them as they were capturing the monkey Phantoms while some of them looked silly while doing it.
"Hmmm…maybe I had the wrong idea about them." Aika said as she was about to leave, but…
"Hey, someone's there." Mai said, which made Aika stop and look.
That's when they saw an injured man walking out an alleyway before he turned to Kazuto and his friends.
He appears to be a young man in his 20s with black hair and gray eyes and wears glasses. He then reached out to them and said only this.
"H-Help me…"
The injured man fell to the ground which made most of them a bit worried.
"Oh, no." Reina said before she approached him to check on him.
Mai was about to move in too, but Kazuto stops her by grabbing onto her arm.
"Kazuto-kun, what are you doing? He needs help." Mai said.
"No, something about this doesn't seem right to me." Kazuto shook his head.
Reina then knelt down to the man and was going to see if she can heal his wounds, but Minato saw his face thanks to his enhanced vision, and saw an evil smirk on his face and soon realized what he was going to do.
"Reina-chan!" Minato quickly moves to Reina who turns to him.
"Minato-kun?" Reina said.
The injured man soon stood up and transformed into an Orphnoch to attack her, but Minato quickly grabbed hold of her and managed to jump back as he missed.
"Are you alright?" Minato asked, and Reina nodded.
"Hai! Thank you." Reina said.
"Darn it! I almost had her too!"
Everyone looked and saw his Orphnoch form.
He was based around a centipede with sharp thorns on his arms and legs and wears a mask/helmet based around a centipede.
This is the Orphnoch form of Lucky Clover member Takuma Itsuro, the Centipede Orphnoch.
"An Orphnoch!" Kiba said before he and Kazuto quickly moved forward, and Minato had Reina hide behind him.
"Greetings, Kamen Riders. The name is Takuma Itsuro of Lucky Clover. A pleasure to meet you." The Centipede Orphnoch introduced himself as he bowed his head.
"Lucky Clover?" Reina said in both shock and fear.
"Wouldn't that make him one of the strongest?" Mai said.
"Yeah." Kazuto nodded. "You guys step back, we'll handle this."
Reina quickly moved to the others before Mai nodded.
"Alright. Just be careful." Mai said before they moved to take cover.
Kazuto, Minato, and Kiba soon brought their Gears and put them on, they then brought out their respective Phones and entered the activation codes.
[STANDING BY]
"Henshin!" They said one at a time while striking their poses and inserted their Phones into their belts.
[COMPLETE]
With that they soon transform into their Kamen Rider forms ready to fight the Lucky Clover member.
"Hmph! You're not the only one with numbers." The Centipede Orphnoch said before he snapped his fingers.
Then appearing out of their hiding spots was a squad of Riotroopers as they stood by the Centipede Orphnoch's side ready to fight them.
Kaixa and Orga soon bring out their bladed weapons before they, along with Faiz, charge at them and the Orphnoch and Riotroopers do the same as they begin fighting.
Kaixa slashes on two Riotroopers with his Blaygun before he lands one spin kick on another trooper's head and punches one on the chest.
He then saw three Riotroopers firing their weapons at him, and Kaixa avoided their fire by rolling on the ground. As he landed on his knee and foot, he quickly pulled on his Blaygun's hammer to load its bullets.
[BURST MODE]
Kaixa then fires at the three Riotroopers, destroying them as they turn to ash.
Orga was parrying several Riotroopers' sword attacks with his own sword and counters by slashing each of them.
Orga then saw one Riotrooper charging towards him before he kicked him on the chest forcing the trooper to stumble before he fell to the ground. He then stops one Riotrooper's attack by catching his blade.
"I don't think so." Orga said before he slashes on that trooper.
In his battle against the Centipede Orphnoch, Faiz was throwing punches and kicks at him, but the Lucky Clover member dodged his attacks with ease before he countered by landing two punches on Faiz's chest forcing him to stumble back.
When Faiz stops, the Centipede Orphnoch chuckles at him.
"Don't think this is going to be like your battle with Mr. J." He says before he shoots out a blue ray of energy, and Faiz dodges it by rolling on the ground.
"I'll keep that in mind." Faiz said before he pulled out his Phone and entered the code to activate its Burst Mode.
[BURST MODE]
Faiz fires at the Centipede Orphnoch, but he soon brings out a centipede-like whip, full of spikes, and uses it to deflect Faiz's laser shots.
Faiz was surprised by this before the Centipede Orphnoch attacked him with his whip. Faiz dodges his attacks, but the Lucky Clover member was able to land two hits on him.
Then the Centipede Orphnoch charges at Faiz and begins attacking him with his fists. Faiz dodges his punches before he counters by punching at him, but the Centipede Orphnoch easily catches his punch which shocked Faiz.
"Was that really supposed to be a punch?" He said before he spun Faiz around and threw him into the air.
The Centipede Orphnoch then throws his whip at him and uses it to entrap Faiz's body before he smashes Faiz to the ground while roaring.
Faiz groaned before he reverted to his civilian form, and everyone was shocked and worried by this.
"Oh no, Kazuto!" Mai said.
The Centipede Orphnoch then pulled Kazuto in front of him. Kaixa and Orga saw this as well.
"Kazuto!" Kaixa said as he and Orga were about to move in to help him, but the Riotroopers stood in their way.
"Damn it! Get out of our way!" Orga said before he and Kaixa battled the Riotroopers once again.
The Centipede Orphnoch chuckles as he looks at Kazuto.
"If…You think I'm going to beg for mercy? Forget it!" Kazuto said.
"Hmmm…I guess that would've fun. But I have other plans for you." The Centipede Orphnoch said before he brought his thorns to Kazuto's face. "You see these thorns aren't just for show. I can inject a deadly toxin to someone, first they feel an agonizing pain and not long after that, they'll die. I used this very toxin on humans over hundreds of times, but I never used it on an Orphnoch before. How about I make you my first test subject?"
The Centipede Orphnoch then extended the length of his thorns as they slowly reached Kazuto's face, just as they were a few inches away, Kazuto could brace himself but then a barrier between them which surprised both Kazuto and the Lucky Clover member.
"Nani?" The Centipede Orphnoch said before the barrier pushed back and away from Kazuto as he was forced to let go of him. "Who did that?!"
"That would be me." A girl answered.
Everyone looks and to Kazuto and Kaixa surprised it was the girl who just transferred to their class, Hoshimiya Aika.
"Hoshimiya?" Kaixa said.
"Hoshimiya? Wait, isn't she the girl you mentioned before? The one who transferred to your class?" Orga said and Kazuto nodded.
"Yeah. But what is she doing?" Kazuto said before he saw the large bag she was carrying.
"Who are you supposed to be?" The Centipede Orphnoch questions her.
Aika soon brings out a belt from her bag before she drops it and then she puts on the said belt.
"Let's just say I'm an avenger." Aika said before everyone looked at the belt she was wearing.
The belt was similar to the Rider Gears. It was colored silver with white lines on the front right side and held a Mission Memory on the center and it had orange-colored lenses, it also has a blaster part attachment on the right side.
This is the Delta Gear.
The Riders were surprised to see that belt on her waist as it looks similar to their own.
"No way…" Kaixa said.
"Is that…?" Kazuto said.
She then brought out the Delta Phone and spoke to it.
"Henshin." With that the Phone activated.
[STANDING BY]
Aika then attaches the Phone into the blaster part of her belt.
[COMPLETE]
With that, white neon lights appeared from the belt as they surrounded her body before she transformed in front of everyone.
Aika was now wearing a black bodysuit with white lines. She had orange lenses and a silver jaw piece on her helmet along with a 'V' shaped antenna on her forehead.
This is Kamen Rider Delta.
Everyone was surprised to see her transform into a Kamen Rider.
"No way…" Mai said.
"She's a Kamen Rider?" Haruhiko said. "But then again, this wouldn't be the first time either…"
"Delta…" Orga mutters to himself.
"No way…The third Gear?!" The Centipede Orphnoch said before Delta approached him. "Hmph! This wasn't exactly what I originally had planned, but I guess I'll just have to improvise."
The Centipede Orphnoch then attacks Delta with his whip, and she dodges his attacks as she continues to move towards him.
The Centipede Orphnoch then charges at Delta to attack her with his fists, and Delta dodges his attacks before she counters by landing two punches on his chest followed with a kick forcing the Lucky Clover member to stumble back.
Delta then pulled out her Phone which now has the Delta Mover attached to it that forms a blaster before she spoke to it.
"Fire." Delta said.
[BURST MODE]
Delta then fires blue energy shots with her Delta Blaster at the Centipede Orphnoch and lands some good hits on his body.
With that the Centipede Orphnoch falls on his knees, Delta then removes her Mission Memory and attaches it to the Blaster which extends it to bring out a Pointer within it.
[READY]
Delta then spoke to her Phone to activate her finishing attack.
"Check."
[EXCEED CHARGE]
Energy transfers from her belt to her Pointer due to the Photon Blood, Delta then aimed her weapon at the Centipede Orphnoch.
Knowing what she was about to do, the Centipede Orphnoch was frightened by this before he spotted a nearby Riotrooper fighting against Kaixa as it stumbled back.
Just as Delta fires at the Centipede Orphnoch, acting quickly the Lucky Clover member uses his whip to capture the Riotrooper and pulled the trooper towards him, he then uses the Riotrooper as a shield as the energy shot landed in front of him before it change into a white/blue energy cone.
Delta soon jumps into the air and kicks at both the Centipede Orphnoch and the Riotrooper, as she went into the cone, Delta's symbol appeared before a red fire explosion appeared instead of the usually blue flames.
Just as Delta landed on the ground along with Kaixa and Orga defeating the remaining Riotroopers, everyone saw that the Riotrooper took the majority of the damage before his body turned to ash while the Centipede Orphnoch was nowhere to be seen.
"What the…? Where did he go?" Orga said as they looked for him and Kaixa saw him before he pointed.
"Up there!" Kaixa said.
Everyone looked and saw the Centipede Orphnoch was now standing on top of a roof of a building. He was panting but managed to survive Delta's finishing attack.
"Consider yourselves lucky. You may have survived this day, but I'll be back." The Centipede Orphnoch said before he retreated.
When he was now gone, Kaixa looked at the ash remains of the Riotrooper that the Lucky Clover member had used as a human shield to protect himself.
"I can't believe he would do that to his comrade." Kaixa said.
"But it goes to show you how much of a coward he really is." Orga said.
Kazuto stood up and approached Delta to thank her for saving him.
"Hey, Hoshimiya. I don't know how you get the Delta Gear, but thanks…"
But then, Delta attacks him by punching him and Kazuto dodges it, Kazuto and the others are stunned by this.
"Did she just…?" Mai said and Haruhiko nodded.
"I think she did." Haruhiko said.
"The hell…what are you doing?" Kazuto asked before Delta glares at him.
"I heard what he said. You're one of them…!" Delta said, and Kazuto blinks in confusion.
"Them? Wait, do you mean the Orphnoch?" Kazuto said before Delta charges at him to attack him. "Hey!"
Kazuto dodges her punches and kicks before he moves away from her.
"What are you waiting for?!" Delta exclaimed before she aimed her Blaster at him. "Transform and fight me!"
Delta fires at Kazuto, and he dodges her gunfire by rolling on the ground.
"Guess you left me no choice." Kazuto said before he entered the code to activate it once again.
[STANDING BY]
"Henshin!" Kazuto said before he inserted the Phone into his belt.
[COMPLETE]
After Kazuto had transformed into Faiz, Delta charges at him and then both Riders engage in a fist fight with Faiz mostly avoiding her attacks before both Riders bring their arms in a lock as they stare at each other.
