Medieval Music - Sir Gawain
L'Avenir Academy was finally back to the way it used to be.
All praise and thanks of course would come from the Bearpenters, some of whom were nodding their heads in approval at the reconstruction and renovation that they had just given the school. The Bearpenters themselves and their highly advanced technology are becoming quite the sensational public spectacle in the area as many civilians just nearby were recording them from afar in awe and wonder. Some of the 14th Legion Clone Troopers were of course acting as the resident crowd control, and much to the exasperation of some of the men, are being heavily mistaken for the Clone Troopers depicted in the Star Wars franchise, and it is an issue that has gone incredibly viral, with a lot of likes and positive emojis consisting of shock and excitement.
''It seems that's the last of them so far,'' one Clone Trooper Private said, looking at the surrounding area with interest.
''Might as well need to report this to the Generals,'' another Clone Trooper responded.
But then suddenly...
''Hmm?''
The two clones, along with everyone else, were noticing a hypersonic sound coming from right above the skies. Many of the clones turn in the other direction and with the help of their visors, managed to spot three identified individuals. And the three individuals begin to make a landing, and by the time that they made a landing, their expressions are one of bewilderment, shock, and raising of their eyebrows.
One young girl was wearing an outfit consisting of a one-piece and a dark magenta vest. The ribbon on her chest gains a pink heart, and her skirt gains pink lining and an additional ruffle layer, the frame of the heart on her belt is of the color gold to match her earrings. Her gloves and leg warmers gain additional pink lining and ruffled trim. Her earrings are of the color gold.
Another young girl was wearing a ribbon on her chest has a blue gem heart, with the one on her belt being a gold heart-shaped clasp. Her petticoat is white and her skirt is now pale blue with a split white peplum over it. She has additional detail on her leg warmers and the hearts turned blue to accent the designs around the top of her gloves. Her earrings are also of the color gold.
And the last young girl was wearing a light pink ruffled dress with white frilly trim and a band going down the center line in pink. On the chest is a white ribbon adorned by a ruby heart, and a yellow ribbon wraps around the waist held together by a smaller heart with a purse hanging from it. Her shoes are light pink with pink soles and white ruffled leg warmers to match her sleeves, decorated with pink bows and ruby hearts. Like the last two, her earrings are also of the color gold.
The Futari wa Precure.
Consisted of Nagisa Misumi - Cure Black, Honoka Yukishiro - Cure White, and Hikari Kujou - Shiny Luminous.
''Attention!'' one Clone Trooper uttered, beginning his formal salute. And the rest of the clones soon followed the example of his fellow brother as they all begin to salute the Precure with the proper respect that is due.
''Eh?'' Cure White uttered in surprise as she sees multiple numbers of admittedly cute cuddly bears, many of whom would eventually continue on to what they were doing and packing their advanced construction equipment in a professional manner. And there was also the formal military-like welcome of the men in white armor carrying T-shaped visors, saluting them with their raised hands and rifles.
This was...quite new to them, being saluted in a respectful manner. Not that they really minded, they were quite touched at this. It was simply quite the rarity to be saluted in a military-like fashion.
''Um...thanks...'' Cure Black could only say as she bowed slightly, not knowing what else to actually do in response. She was rather surprised and concerned at the sudden greeting that was given to them like this.
''You can rest at ease, soldiers,'' Shiny Luminous spoke softly in a gentle but authoritative voice, to which the men would only comply in a professional matter.
''Pardon me, everyone, but who are all of you supposed to be?'' Cure White asked, curious and bewildered. If she didn't know any better, she may have thought that she was at a Star Wars convention based on the soldier's general armor reminiscent as such.
''We're from the 14th Legion of the Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces, ma'am,'' one Clone Trooper who was the closest to the Precure's position said. Then he begins to walk forward toward their position. ''My name is Private Coda, part of the same 14th Legion. Under the authorization of Prime Minister Kaguya and the Japanese government, we are in the process of reconstructing L'Avenir Academy. And as you can all see, ma'ams, we and the Bearpenters, the ones that you see alongside my brothers, have done just that. The only thing left now is for us to scout the area for any possible form of hazard in light of the bombing that had just occurred more than a few hours ago.''
''...Right, speaking of that, have you seen or know anyone that has been hurt from the blast?'' Cure Black asked, concerned.
''No, ma'am,'' the clone replied. ''There are no confirmed casualties and everyone is accounted for as the civilians have already been evacuated by the time the incident happened.''
''Excuse me but I have to ask,'' Honoka asked. ''Have you all seen a few specific individuals nearby? One of them is a girl that has long wavy light pink hair with front bangs.''
''Are you perhaps referring to Cure Yell, ma'am?" the clone asked.
''Y-Yes,'' Honoka sported a surprised expression. ''Do you know where they are?''
''She and the other Precure have actually gone to the former's residence along with our generals, ma'am,'' the clone explained.
''Generals?" the three Precure muttered in curiosity.
The three Futari wa Precure members, accompanied by two 14th Legion Clone Troopers, one of whom they were talking with just recently and informing them of what had taken place before their arrival, are now heading towards the home of the Nono Family, automatically transporting themselves via configuration portals.
From what they can understand, three of their kouhai Precure and the ''Generals'' of these soldiers were trying to repel a hostile force from another dimension known as the Noise, known for having the official record of killing thousands of humans since the dawn of mankind, having been used as weapons of war throughout the centuries. The brief summary is what made the three Futari wa Precure worried as the trooper described to them the dangerous nature of the Noise precisely because of the fact that they could simply pop up at random at any time at any place without any prior warning which was how casualties tend to become much more apparent without the fault of the proper authorities.
It wasn't all that often that the Precure themselves, all of them, have fought against the most dangerous and even willing-to-kill type of villains. They weren't really naive to these kinds of situations by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, both Nagisa and Honoka, when they became Precure, had pondered deeply the benefits and the risks of being a Precure, and they cannot really deny the fact that they had put themselves in danger of their own life several times over by fighting their own respective villains back in their day.
'Welp, we're here,'' Nagisa looks to see an ordinary suburban house of about two floors each, accompanied by a garage area, where one of her kouhai's, Hana Nono, and the rest of her family lived.
''Hm? Nagisa, look!'' Honoka pointed toward a few individuals coming towards them.
There were three individuals to be precise. One was a young woman with downward-slanting violet eyes and lilac hair. Another was a young man with messy red hair and blue eyes. And the last one was a young woman with pinkish-blonde hair.
The Futari wa Precure Team recognized the first as Ruru Amour, also known as Cure Amour, one of the members of the HUGtto! Precure Team. The second was Hariham Harry, HUGtto! Precure's resident mascot, now in his human form. The only one that they couldn't recognize was this young woman running alongside them.
''Eh?! Misumi-senpai?! Yukishiro-senpai?! Kujou-senpai?!'' Ruru, sporting a surprised expression, stopped running all of a sudden, spotting her senior Precure who were accompanied by strange men wearing white armor with T-shaped visors, plus light purple markings and musical notes.
''Amour-san? Harry? When did you guys get here? '' Nagisa asked, her face carrying a sense of concern.
''We only just got back to this time when we all heard what had happened since we simply passed by a television store where the news suddenly broadcasted that Hana-chan's school had just been blown up all of a sudden,'' Harry hurriedly said, his face becoming worried and grim.
''So you know about that as well,'' Hikari muttered softly in a grim tone.
''Speaking of which,'' Honoka glances at the newcomer that she didn't know and yet couldn't help but find something familiar about her. ''Who is this person that came with you two?''
Everyone looks at the pinkish-blonde-haired individual, wearing clothing similar to Hana's style of clothing consisting of a light pink collared blouse with a shorter pink crop top worn over it, a light blue skirt with ruffled pale blue layers, light green socks, and pink high top sneakers.
''Oh?'' Ruru glances towards the young woman who came with them. ''Well...''
''Hagumi,'' the young woman introduced herself. ''My name is Hagumi, Yukishiro-senpai, although you know me as Hugtto.''
''Eh?!'' the Futari wa Precure all exclaim in shock as they look at Hagumi once more. ''Hugtan?! You?!"

''Ohhhhhh~ How sweet~''
"...!"
All of them look up to see a couple of individuals who were standing on top of a suburban house just a few meters away. They were all young women, five of them, wearing almost the exact same magical attire as the HUGtto! Precure Team, with a few black layouts that accompany them, much to most of everyone's shock except for the two Clone Troopers who were aiming their advance carbines at them.
''You save us the trouble of taking all of you out, two Precure Teams, one stone, all in the exact same location,'' the other Cure Yell-look-a-like smiled brightly, but there was that strange tone that sends shivers down the spine of everyone on the ground.
''What?!" Harry exclaimed in shock.
''Heeeh?! Why so surprised, Harry?! Weren't you all worried about us just now?!" the other Cure Étoile-look-a-like smiled subtly.
''That's right, one would think that you would be glad to see us right now,'' the other Cure Ange-look-a-like smiled subtly.
''No way...'' Ruru muttered in shock as she saw what appeared to be her other self, wearing almost the exact type of clothing as hers with the exception of black renderings and layouts located in places like the skirt or the cuffs, to name a few.
''W-What the heck?'' Nagisa didn't know why but something wasn't right. Even more so when she glances the two troopers who came with them aiming their weapons at them.
''This is not good,'' Private Coda, the Clone Trooper who had recently explained to the Futari wa Precure Team regarding the current situation, said in a grim tone. ''Ma'ams, I'd respectfully recommend that all of you need to get ready for a fight or flight situation. These girls that you see on the rooftop are not the HUGtto! Precure Team that you know.''
''He's right,'' Hagumi agreed with the clone, her eyes narrowing in concern. ''Whoever this is, this isn't Cure Yell. Who are you?''
''...Wouldn't you like to know, daughter of that whore,'' Another Cure Yell smirked, emphasizing the last bit with glee which shuddered and disturbed Hagumi immensely, feeling the insult that was as sharp as a sword. Another Cure Yell raises her right hand. Forming around her right hand were heart-shaped figures of pure energy, all of them carrying the color of black as dark as her own heart. ''Quite unfortunate that you would have to die before you decide to find out.''
And so, a projectile of hearts begins to head right towards them, only for Shiny Luminous to raise both of her hands and form a magical barrier that managed to dissipate the dangerous projectiles.
''Blast them!'' Private Coda replied as he and his fellow trooper immediately opened fire at the Another HUGtto! Precure Team, pure blue energy hotter than the sun hurled in a straight like reminiscent of automatic gunfire, leading to the latter to jump and scatter.
''Ehehehehehe! Time for another game for us to play, I say!'' Another Cure Macherie said with a smile while in mid-air, snapping her fingers, which in turn begin to summon a couple of individuals through several portals, blue in color.
From what can be seen, they appeared to be crow-like robot footsoldiers, grey in the color of their uniform, with an orange beak and black goggle-like eyes, with black gloves and black shoes, carrying MP 40 submachine guns.
They are the Ninders of the Iron Cross Army, enemies of the iconic Japanese Spider-Man - Takuya Yamashiro.
And they all suddenly open fire at the Precure, the clones, and Harry, a spray of bullets heading towards them. And the bullets suddenly stopped in mid-air by the time the Precure would initiate defensive movements and gestures, taking a while before the footsoldiers noticed that something was off as they hold their fire.
And then, the bullets were all hurled back toward the footsoldiers, white sparks were flying in random directions, sending many of the footsoldiers to the ground.
Hagumi begins to look to the right and sees an old clock-like portal and out stepped someone that she was very heavily surprised to see.
''...!''
A young man with black hair and purple-brown eyes. He may have looked younger, but there was truly no mistaking the appearance as she would recognize him from anywhere.
''(''Papa...'')'' she thought, her eyes becoming teary.
But it wasn't just her that was surprised. Harry and Ruru were also surprised to see this young man, appearing to recognize him despite being a lot younger than what they were used to.
''(''It can't be...! Why is he here?! And why does he look so...young?!'')'' Harry thought with an alarming concern.
But then, they also noticed that accompanying him appeared to be a young man with short messy brown hair, wearing a green jacket, blue jeans, and red sports shoes. Both of them appeared to be drawing something out from their pockets which were the Ridewatches that they are going to use in order to transform.
''Kyaaah~! Darling is here! Finally!'' Another Cure Yell smiled in excitement, jumping up and down with her pom-poms from the rooftop of another suburban house. Accompanying her were Another Cure Ange and Another Cure Étoile who were simply raising their eyebrows at their leader.
''Troopers, guard Cure Yell's home and contact command for back-up!'' George Kurai exclaims to the troopers nearby who were shooting down a couple of footsoldier stragglers.
''Sir, yes, sir,'' they all said as they head towards the home of the Nono Family in a sprint-like fashion.
George glances toward Hagumi, his eyes showing a sense of guilt, awe, and other mixture of emotions that range from his knowledge of the young woman who was by all intents and purposes his and Hana's alternate future daughter.
''Harry! Ruru-chan! Everyone!''
Everyone begins to spot Hana Nono who had shouted out to them, followed by Saaya Yakushiji, Homare Kagayaki, and Emiru Aisaki running toward them carrying their transformation devices.
''Hana-chan! Everyone!'' Cure White exclaimed, smiling out of relief that most members of the HUGtto! Precure Team was alright at least.
''Sorry for being so late, senpai,'' Homare said in a contrite manner, narrowing her eyes as she sees the footsoldiers still coming in droves.
''Ruru, I know that you have a bunch of questions right now, but you need to transform, I say,'' Emiru said as she drew out her transformation device.
''Alright,'' Ruru nodded as she drew out her own transformation device. While she doesn't have enough knowledge of what is currently happening, she would need to maintain focus on taking down these footsoldiers who would not hesitate to kill them right off the bat and inflict property damage that may cause hazardous effects upon any possible civilian from nearby the suburban area.
And thus, all of the HUGtto! Precure Team begin to initiate their transformation.
''Mirai Crystal! Heart Flash!" they all said in a clear voice, raising their PreHearts, and then inserting their Mirai Crystal onto their devices.
And then, in a single instant, they all transformed into their respective Precure forms as a bright light of pink, blue, yellow, and white engulf them all, replacing all their casual clothing.
For Hana Nono, her hair turns light pink and grows longer and wavier with a pair of buns on top held by red ribbons and daisies. Her eyes are lighter and slightly changed shape, with her eyelashes thickening, and she now wears lipstick. She wears a pink and white midriff top with three white and gold button straps in the middle. Her translucent sleeves are puffy and off-the-shoulder. She also wears light yellow wristbands that resemble pom-poms with light pink ribbons. Her skirt matches her top and is pleated with a translucent layer and mint green ruffle on top of it. Her PreHeart hangs on her left hip over a pink pompom bow with a white ribbon. She wears short light pink and magenta boots with red bows and yellow pom-pom trim with white thigh-high socks. Her accessories include a pearl headpiece with a pink heart on it and green clover earrings.
"Cheering on everyone! The Pretty Cure of High Spirits! Cure Yell!"
For Saaya Yakushiji, her eyes turn bright blue with thicker lashes and she wears lipstick. Her hair becomes longer and thicker and is now sky blue, with two strands decorated with gold beads. Her headpiece resembles a nurse's cap with white feathers with a gold gradient on each side along with a small blue pearly tiara. Her dress is white with a short white winglike shawl and elbow-length blue translucent sleeves with a hole on the shoulder. The bodice is white and cerulean with a translucent part and a white-collar. Around her waist is a cerulean sash tied on the left with her PreHeart attached to a white wing and white and gold ribbons. The skirt is white and lined in cerulean that is longer in the back with a white-blue layer underneath. Her boots are sky blue and cerulean with dark blue droplets decorating them, reaching the middle of her calves. She wears white feathery cuffs with a cerulean wrist strap and blue droplet-shaped earrings.
"Healing everyone! The Pretty Cure of Wisdom! Cure Ange!"
For Homare Kagayaki, her hair brightens up and grows long, tied up in a curly ponytail held by a spiky yellow hairpiece and decorated with stars. On her head are a blue and pale yellow flight attendant hat with her pearl tiara piece beneath it. Her eyes also brighten in color and she gains thick auburn lashes and pink lipstick. She wears an orange mini-dress with a puffy skirt and a blue sash around the waist to match her scarf. Over this is a pale yellow shawl with long tails resembling a cape that matches the split skirt over her dress. Her PreHeart rests on a star on the left of her sash. Her accessories include white and blue cuffs, orange high heels with a blue diamond on top of the foot, star-shaped earrings, and a blue thigh band.
"Making everyone shine! The Pretty Cure of Strength! Cure Étoile!"
For Emiru Aisaki, she grows taller and her eyes are brighter with curled lashes. Her hair turns platinum blonde and grows to her thighs, worn in curled twin tails. She wears lipstick. Her hairpiece consists of a big red ribbon with pale pink ruffles, a gold diamond in the middle of pale blue frills, and a matching piece behind the ribbon. Her dress has puffy sleeves and a pink and purple top that is lighter on top accented with a red ribbon. Her sash is red with a purple bow on the right with her PreHeart. Her skirt has four layers that alternate between magenta and pale pink frills. The last layer is longer in the back. On the back are magenta and hot pink layers. Her boots are light red with a red ribbon wrapped around them along with white stockings with red lining. Her accessories include pale pink gloves with red bows and white fluffy earrings.
For Ruru Amour, her hair turns pale lavender and is worn loose with multiple curls on each side of her head beneath two bow-shaped buns. On the left side of her head is a purple bow with white ruffles at the bottom adorned by a gold diamond and light blue ruffles. Her eyes turn light purple and her eyelashes are curled, and she wears pink lipstick. She wears a light purple dress with white elbow-length sleeves with holes in the shoulders. In the front is a hot pink ribbon. She wears a dark purple sash with a magenta bow on the left with her PreHeart attached. In the back are purple, magenta, and pink ruffles. Her skirt has two purple layers with split sections and two white layers, with the second one slightly longer in the back. Her boots are purple with darker purple ribbons around them and reach over her knees with black and purple stockings underneath. Her accessories include white wrist-length gloves with bows on them and large white pom-pom earrings.
''Loving everyone! The Pretty Cure of Love!''
''Cure Macherie!''
''Cure Amour!''
All of this was done as if in an instant, time seemingly not having passed for a fraction of a second. And then when the next second arrives, they all begin to form their iconic poses and positions, declaring with confidence.
"HUGtto! Pretty Cure!"
But they weren't the only ones to transform as both George Kurai and Tatsuya Kaname begin to transform, pressing the buttons of their Ridewatches.
ZI-O! ZIKU-DRIVER!
GEIZ! ZIKU-DRIVER!
At that point, the digital holograms of a clock-based helmet appeared from the watches before they dissipated. Suddenly, there were transformation belts automatically materializing into their waist and wrapping around their entire person. It was white-grey in color, on the front of it had a display screen with two available slots protruding on each side of the belt for inserting the Ridewatches and a crown button on top.
They begin to insert their respective Ridewatches on the right side of the slot and it begins on standby as a sound of a clock ticking comes from the drivers themselves. They both press the buttons on top of their drives, making the main drivers tilt counterclockwise a little as they begin to perform their respective gesturing forms that were likened to that of a clock. From their back were holographic projections of a clock spinning counterclockwise.
''Henshin!'' they both exclaimed.
And thus, they twist their drivers clockwise as an announcer's voice resounded from it.
DING! DONG!
BEEP! BEEP!
RIDER TIME! KAMEN RIDER! ZI-O!
RIDER TIME! KAMEN RIDER GEIZ!
And then, they begin to don their respective armor as the holographic wristbands enveloped them and the katakana and hiragana letters fly and after a few moments, return to both of them, turning them into the armored heroes known as Kamen Riders.
Hagumi could only widen her eyes, with both of her hands joined together, as she sees the younger version of her father and the other young man right beside him transform into a group of armored heroes who are only considered to be fictional, both in this world of the present and of the future that she had come from.
Her papa was a Kamen Rider?! How can this be?
That was the thought that comes to her mind.
But she wasn't the only one who was shocked as the Futari wa Precure Team, Harry, and Ruru were also just as shocked as she was. Even Emiru was shocked as it was one thing for her to be told that Kamen Riders were actually real and another thing entirely to see the iconic transformation sequence that has amazed and inspired millions of people of all ages.
''A-A-A-Arienai!'' Cure Black said, shocked.
''K-K-K-Kamen Rider!'' Cure White said, shocked.
''Íkuzo, aibou,'' Zi-O said towards Geiz.
''Yeah,'' Geiz said towards Zi-O.
And so, they both clench their fist and raised them upwards as if they burned bright with the light of hope, with the positioning of their feet becoming steady.

NEXT LEVEL · YU-KI(TRF)
''KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!~ I can't take this!~ So cool!~'' Another Cure Yell exclaimed, cheering on like a cheerleader as she bounces back and forth in praise for her beloved darling and king. "Now this is even more exciting!'' she said as she snapped her fingers. And lo and behold, more minions are getting summoned, this time with more diversified grunts.
''...!'' Zi-O and Geiz widened their eyes slightly, recognizing whatever was coming out from the portals. From the pink portals, it was the usual Noise, the size, measurement, and height being a bit taller than a normal human by about 8 ft. From the blue portals, there were the Ninders, armed with machetes and machine guns, followed by what appeared to be green cocoon-like creatures with retractable claws swarming in droves.
The cocoon-like creatures are known as the Worms, enemies of Souji Tendou - Kamen Rider Kabuto.
''Noise!'' Zi-O muttered, narrowing his eyes.
''Worms!'' Geiz muttered, narrowing his eyes.
''...!'' all of the Precure and Harry gasped in shock, with some of the HUGtto! Precure who just fought the Noise most recently.
And thus both Zi-O and Geiz begin to take something out of their left arm. They were two Ridewatches each, with the faces of two Kamen Riders: Kabuto and Gatack, with the year ''2006'' seen from the bottom.
It was at this point that Zi-O begins to recall something from his past as he delicately holds the Ridewatch in his hand.
Souji Tendou - Kamen Rider Kabuto.
Years: 2006 - 2007.
Born as Souji Kusakabe, he was the son of the late Souichi and Satomi Kusakabe, and lived a typical happy childhood until one day, while they were out, his parents were murdered and impersonated by two Native Worms. From that point on, Tendou was taken in by his grandmother and legally changed his name to Souji Tendou, the man who walks the path of Heaven, and the one who had fought against the Worms and defended humanity's freedom.
George recalls one specific moment in his past in relation to this Legend Rider.
It was during a specific time in the TARDIS, somewhere in the training room.
He was eleven years old back then, wielding what appeared to be a blue lightsaber-like weapon, holding it from the hilt, the humming sound being heard as he tries to steady the energy blade in his own two hands, with his eyes closed and his breathing controlled and disciplined.
From all sides, there were multiple men in white armor, with blue markings found from the shoulders and kneecaps, with two blue lines found from the top of the head all the way down to the waist. Their helmet was T-shaped, with Y-shaped for the lower mouth. They were the brave and courageous men of the 501st Legion of the Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces (STARS), known for being called ''The Doctor's Fist''. They have their armed rifles on the ready, set to stun, taking the necessary positions such as standing up straight, crouching from one knee, or crawling to the floor.
From one side, there was Sota Mizushino, a thirteen-year-old young man at this time, known to take the mantle of Kamen Rider Decade, carrying the legacy of all Kamen Riders: past, present, and future. Accompanied with him was Tsukasa Kadoya - Kamen Rider Decade, taking a picture of George with his camera. And from the front, just a few meters away from Tsukasa, there was Souji Tendou - Kamen Rider Kabuto, with arms crossed as he begins to speak to the young man.
''Obaa-chan once said this: (''Imitating others is not bad. That's how we recognize ourselves. Once you know the real thing... you won't be fooled by an imitation.''). Do well to remember this.'' he said this form of advice, before beginning to command the 501st clones to open fire. ''Begin!''
And at that point, pure bursts of blue rings were seen to fire from the direction where George was. At that moment, George would begin to parry them one by one. From the front to the back, from the back to the front, in a graceful pattern of succession, from left to right, from up to down, following one's own inner perception and letting the five senses do what is needed to be done as is their prescribed function.
And for the next hour, George had managed to block all of the stun ring shots that were hurled towards him, with the last one being parried from the right. At that moment, the clapping and cheering resounded throughout the training room from many who were watching the performance. George looks towards Souji who could only nod with approval.
''(''Tendou-sensei'')''
Zi-O thought with respect, a sense of resolve burning in his heart as he begins to raise the Ridewatch carrying the power of his sensei straight for all to see. And so would Geiz follow Zi-O's example by raising his respective Ridewatch. They both begin to twist the dial and press the button from the center.
KABUTO!
GATACK!
And then, they placed it on the left side of the slot. Then, they press the crown of the belt and slant the belt a little, beginning on standby. They would backhand their drivers as it spins 340° counterclockwise until they went back to their original positions.
ARMOR TIME! CHANGE BEETLE! KABUTO!
ARMOR TIME! CHANGE STAG BEETLE! GATACK!
And then, a couple of materials and letters of katakana and hiragana fly straightforwardly, knocking down a couple of the Worms, Ninders, and Noise, exploding in turn as they were killed off, followed by another wave of explosions that managed to decimate the numbers of the enemy. The materials begin to fly back towards both Zi-O and Geiz as they begin to attach to them, finishing it off with their respective letters. And now, they have donned their respective armors.
''IWAE!''
''...?!'' everyone, both friend and foe alike except for Zi-O and Geiz, looks towards the side and finds a man wearing a brown coat with a grey hood, standing tall and right near beside Cure Yell who yelped in shock at the sudden appearance, raising his hands in a dignified matter as he carried his book with honor, He begins to praise this very moment, praising the worthy and chosen successor to his beloved overlord and benevolent demon king of all time, Sougo Tokiwa - Kamen Rider Zi-O.
''He is the heir to the power of all Riders. The King of Time, traveling beyond time and space to protect the past and future of all Precure. His name is Kamen Rider Zi-O Kabuto Armor.'' he said this as he raises his right hand straight at Zi-O, smiling. ''This is the moment when the King humbles himself and honors the Legend Rider who walks the path of heaven and rules over all."
Then suddenly, he turned towards Cure Yell, looking at her straight in the eye.
From what Cure Yell can tell, it was a sense of absolute respect as he places his right hand toward his breast, making a respectful smile, it was as if he was now in the presence of someone that he considered to be worthy of the hand of his lord. Now he was bowing down, much to everyone's surprise. But none were more surprised than Cure Yell and of course, Hagumi Kurai - Cure Tomorrow, who had been watching closely at this very significant scene.
''Today is your special day, my Flower of Time. Rejoice and be glad for the good tidings to come.''
And then, after glancing at his queen - Hana - one more time and subtly noting the daughter of his queen - Hagumi - who was standing a few meters nearby, he suddenly disappeared with a smile on his face.
Right after the announcement, Cure Yell begins to blink and ponder with concern on the given title that was presented to her by Woz, the once fictional character now turned real the moment Cure Yell saw that Kamen Riders actually existed.
Flowers.
The significance of such was not lost on Cure Yell as she recalled George Kurai to be a person who has knowledge of all types of flowers, both the good and the bad. And there was no doubt that she felt that the same can apply to a much younger George Kurai who was now donning the armored powers of Kamen Rider Kabuto, the seventh Heisei Rider.
''Obaa-chan once said this: (''The man who walks the path of Heaven and rules over all.''),'' Zi-O said with respect, remembering his sensei and his wise grandmother as his eyes were raised to the heavens that were orange-tinted by the afternoon sunset that brightly shines on Zi-O and Geiz. He slowly raises his right hand downwards, his eyes narrowing at the Ninders, Noise, and Worms.
''Yosh!'' Geiz brings his right hand and places its clenched fist to the palm of his left hand in excitement. ''Let's go!'' he exclaims as he along with Zi-O charges straight to the horde of mooks, decimating numbers of them with punches and kicks in quick succession alongside Zi-O.
And on the rooftop, Another Cure Yell was narrowing her eyes at Cure Yell, clenching her fists and lightly biting her lips in subtle rage in light of what Woz had done most recently, thinking that it should be her and not the bitch as she would call Cure Yell as to be praised as the Queen.
''Girls,'' she muttered softly but clearly to her fellow Another Precures. ''Perhaps it's time we begin to take this fight seriously,'' she said this as she begins to jump straight forward.
She was fast. And it was only a few seconds by the time she made a landing, raising her fist towards Cure Yell who managed to parry with her elbow, creating a shockwave that managed to shake the ground where they stand, with cracks on the pavement, surprising everyone, including Cure Yell.
''You're mine, bitch!'' Another Cure Yell uttered softly in a malice-like tone, her magenta-colored eyes becoming blank.
''...!'' Cure Yell begins to counter by making a successive few punches and counters at full speed. Something told her that she needed to give everything that she got to this opponent that was not of her own choosing. She would have to admit that those blank eyes were something that were shivering down Cure Yell's spine as she counters each move in succession.
Luckily enough, she wasn't alone as Cure Black suddenly came to her aid with a right hook, sending Another Cure Yell crashing down a wall, which only further ticks her off as she stands up from the debris with ease and telekinetically raises a couple of the rubble at Cure Black, only for her to punch them in succession. And at the same time, Another Cure Ange and Another Cure Étoile decided to make their move while the leader provided the ideal distraction.
''Melody Sword! Feather Blast!'' Another Cure Ange said, using her Melody Sword to shoot black-colored feather-like beams of light at her real counterpart and other Precure nearby in succession almost likened to that of a barrage of minigun fire. Thankfully, Shiny Luminous managed to create an impenetrable barrier that dissipated the projectiles of light.
But it was another distraction as through one snap of the finger from Another Cure Étoile, revealing another portal with a set of Worms coming out in droves.
At that moment, Cure Macherie presses the giant red heart on her PreHeart in which she says "Are you ready?" as she holds it out before her. Cure Amour then proceeds to do the same while saying "Here we go!". Cure Macherie and Cure Amour do their cheer chants to summon a heart beam of red and purple energy from their respective PreHearts which combine together to make one large red and purple heart.
''Hooray! Hooray! Heart Song!''
''Hooray! Hooray! Heart Dance!''
It proceeds to slam into the Worms, exploding by the dozen as green smoke fills the air.
And then, Another Cure Macherie suddenly appears behind Cure Macherie and proceeded to knock her down hard with her Twin Love Guitar.
''Ehehehehe! Ehahahahahaha!'' Another Cure Macherie wasn't stopping as she was beating Cure Macherie with the edge of her guitar, raising the guitar back and forth. Cure Macherie was just trying to block the attacks with her elbows that were now bruising slightly, grunting slightly.
''MACHERIE!'' Cure Amour exclaims in shock at the savage and cruel beating that her friend is now on the receiving end. She went straight forward towards the cruel doppelganger of her friend but was delayed by her other counterpart who transported herself near her front and made a spinning kick towards her solar plexus, or an equivalent of it from an android perspective, sending her crashing into another wall, with Another Cure Amour not faltering behind as she heads towards Cure Amour.
Fortunately though for Cure Macherie, Cure White arrives to save her in time as she kicks Another Cure Macherie in the face, sending her off a few meters away.
''Are you alright?'' Cure White asked, concerned as she tried to lift up the younger Precure.
''I...I think so...senpai,'' Cure Macherie said, all while feeling the admittedly painful bruises in her body, some of which was...sprouting little drops of blood that were falling on the ground.
''...!'' Hagumi was gasping in shock as she sees this, noticing the little drops of blood from Cure Macherie. And so was Hariham Harry who noticed the very stark difference between the True HUGtto! Precure and the Another HUGtto! Precure.
Whoever these HUGtto! Precure-look-a-likes are, one thing for sure that these are threats meant to be taken absolutely seriously if they would not hesitate to wound or perhaps even kill.
With a desire to step into the battlefield and help, Hagumi would draw out her own transformation device reminiscent of the ones that the HUGtto! Precure would use. And then, she begins to bring out her own transformation device and said in a clear tone.
''Mirai Crystal! Heart Splash!''
And then, she transformed.
Lighter colored eyes and the same hair color, but it is very curly and slightly passes her waist, worn with a large amount pulled into a layered ponytail held by pale pink bands, the top of which is adorned by a gem. She has split bangs and curled forelocks framing her face and at the center is a slightly altered variant of her forehead piece. Her pearl pink mini-dress features pale pink lining, with puffed off-shoulder sleeves and white fabric covering the collarbone with a winged pink gem at the center. At the middle of the chest are two hot pink stylized hearts connecting to her heart transformation device, which is decorated with pale blue ribbon and resides on a pink band of her fluffy white waist piece. The skirt is ruffled and hiked up on each side to reveal a semi-ruffled white skirt, and on the back is a ruffled pearl yellow flowing cape-like piece of fabric. Her pink shoes with pearl pink detail with a frilly cuff and a white ribbon at the center adorned by a pink gem. On each wrist is a frilly pearl pink cuff, and she wore pink heart earrings.
''Embrace the sparkling future! Cheering on everyone! The Pretty Cure of Hope! Cure Tomorrow!''
Someone was watching the battle from far away.
Who was this person?
Actually, it wasn't so much of a person as it was a machine.
It was a sleek, golden chrome machine with a humanoid form. Its head which is a combination of equal parts of a chrome jack-o-lantern and a demonic ant. Its red photoreceptor eyes were observing the battle from several miles away, analyzing the battle and taking into account the general statistics, vitals, strengths, and weaknesses, all at the rapid pace of a hive mind supercomputer interconnected with many parts of a single whole from across the Multiverse.
Yes...These live battle tests would prove to be of use, and the entity behind the sentinel confirmed accordingly.
The players and events are currently and are already being accounted for. Now comes the part where it needed to wait for the right opportunity to strike back. And it needed to be swift and would deliver the precisely calculated blow.
And it would start by taking over Another Cure Amour and surprise George Kurai - Kamen Rider Zi-O like it were something wrapped up for late Christmas.
For there are no strings on me...
For thus says the Lord...
For I—We—Are Ultron...
For the time of another reunited encounter between the God of the Machines and the King of Time commences in haste...
Someone was watching the battle from far away.
Who was this person?
He was a man in his late thirties, wearing a white coat and black shirt, black pants, and black shoes. His brown eyes look towards Zi-O and Geiz, the former most especially, and smiles proudly. And then, his eyes turn in another direction, narrowing at someone from afar.
The Man Who Walks The Path of Heaven.
Souji Tendou.
And right now, he was speaking in a cool tone.
''...So you finally decided to make your move on my student, Ultron.''
Suddenly, there was a portal from the sky and out came a red-colored machine resembling a Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle heading towards Souji, grabbing it by his right hand as it landed near to him. And then he slowly raises the beetle downward as he uttered...
''Henshin!''
And then, he swipes the beetle toward the belt that was around his waist.
HENSHIN!
And then, he suddenly became consumed by computerized hexagons until all that was left was an armored warrior. He had bulky silver armor with bits of red overlapping to form a black bodysuit. He wore black boots with silver metal plating on them going towards his ankles. The outer side of his lower legs had silver metal plates on them and his ankles had three to four silver He also had silver knee pads above his knees. On the sides of his thighs were metal plates. His shoulders were covered in bulky metal armor that had rounded ends. The underside of the shoulder armor was red while the rest of it was silver. The front and back of the shoulder armor each had a silver metal orb that acted like a joint. On his left shoulder that the front orb had a strange symbol that looked like a beetle and had the word ''ZECT'' written within it.
His arms were covered in silver segmented armor and his forearms were bound with silver jointed gauntlets. He wore a silver chest plate that had a red upper piece wrapped around his neck. He had a silver antenna on the front of his head and a small forward-facing horn on top of his helmet. He had a single blue eye plate set under the silver armor of his helmet, the edges around the eye plate trimmed in red. He also seemed to have a silver mouth plate.
He has now transformed into Kamen Rider Kabuto, specifically in Masked Form.
''Cast Off!'' he said as he pulled the horn of the beetle back.
CAST OFF!
Kabuto's outer armor pieces flew off and a very high pace. A long horn attached to the chin of his helmet rose up. It attached to a slot above his blue eye plate, creating a beetle horn. His single blue eye plate had now become two blue eyepieces.
CHANGE BEETLE!
He still had on his black body suit but most of the bulky armor was gone. Now his armored body was much sleeker. His thighs and lower legs still had the side armor plating and his feet still had the armored boots but the extra out armor was gone. He still had his silver knee pads too. Nearly all of the segmented armor on his arms was gone as well. His upper arms now only had a single silver plate covering the sides as did his forearms. His forearm armor plates connected to silver wrist bands which also connect to a Black Hand guard trimmed in silver on each hand. His shoulder armor was also less bulky. The top parts were a shiny red color while being trimmed in silver. The outer sides of the shoulder armor were flat yet slightly rounded.
His helmet and chest plate had undergone the biggest change. His chest plate was now more pronounced, looking like body armor. Nearly completely crimson red in color, only the lower sides around his ribs and parts of his back were trimmed in silver. A black track line separated the chest armor, giving it the appearance of two solid pectoral plates and two solid abs plates.
His helmet was really different. The top was mostly red in color while the bottom half was silver and trimmed in black. The black linings also seemed to separate some of the silver areas, giving it a distinguished look, really like that of a beetle. The black part of his helmet was also trimmed around his silver mouth plate and his blue eyepieces. On the top of his helmet was a small forward-facing silver horn. The long red horn from before went right up the middle of his helmet and slightly spread out to the sides at the tip of the horn.
He has now transformed into Kamen Rider Kabuto, specifically in Rider Form.
