Disclaimer: Same as last chapter
"Wait, lemme get this straight: There's this terrorist group who wants to take over the entire world?" said Shinji, shocked by what Kazuki was telling them.
"That's right. They basically surgically modified me into a cyborg soldier based off of an extinct species of grasshopper." said Kazuki, revealing this. "But, I'm using my new abilities to fight against the forces of Shin-Shocker."
"Damn…of all the things to happen to our friend." said Brenda, shocked and appalled by the actions done to Kazuki by Shin-Shocker.
"I plan on bringing down Shin-Shocker, once and for all." said Kazuki.
"We'll help you, Kazuki." said a voice, as Kazuki looked to see his older brother and sister, Rentaro and Haruka.
"We all will." said Naoto, nodding in confirmation as more of Kazuki's family-members arrived.
"Thanks, guys." said Kazuki, smiling a little, knowing that he has his friends and family helping him out.

Chapter 2: Evil On Leather Wings!
It shows Kazuki doing track and field on the local track at school, and when he stopped, he noticed something. It was a motorcycle that resembled a modified Yamaha YBR750RR with a black, gray and green color-scheme and a grasshopper motif.
'Is this…for me?' Kazuki wondered, as he walked up to the motorcycle, and traced his hand across the side of the vehicle.
"*YAWN* 'Scuse me!" said the bike, sounding like Jaco from Dragon Ball Super. The bike turned to face a stunned Kazuki, "Oh, hello there."
"A-a-a-a-a TALKING motorcycle!?" Kazuki blurted out, stunned. "Am I going nuts or something?"
"No, you're not. My name is Nyte-Striker." said the motorcycle, introducing himself. "I was programmed to aid you by the late Professor Serizawa prior to him being murdered by the Spider Altered."
"It's a pleasure to meet you." said Kazuki, as he then bowed in respect. "My name is Kazuki Higashikata.
"It's a pleasure to meet you as well, Kazuki." said Nyte-Striker.
Later, it cuts to one of Shin-Shocker's monsters having taken up residence in an abandoned church. It looked like a humanoid bio-mechanical vampire bat, having wing membranes below its arms. This was the Bat Altered, a new monster created by Shin-Shocker. It had an ultrasonic scream that could atomize inorganic materials, and it could also sire vampires.
'Glory to Shin-Shocker….' the Bat Altered uttered in his mind.
"That's an awesome-looking bike, Kazuki." said Rentaro, noticing Nyte-Striker.
"Thanks, aniki. Surprisingly enough, it's sentient." said Kazuki, revealing that his new motorcycle could talk.
"That's right." said Nyte-Striker, confirming this.
"HOLY CRAPRICKETTS! Did that motorcycle just talk?" said Naoto, shocked to see that his friend now had a talking motorcycle.
"Yeah. I think he has a consciousness of his own." said Kazuki, noticing this.
"Yeppers," said Nyte-Striker, revealing this. "I'm attuned to the Nyte-Crystal that was surgically implanted inside of Kazuki."
"Handy." said Haruka, taking notice of this. Suddenly, the gang got a news report.
"This is Helena MacArthur reporting." said a woman in a suit, with a bob cut and lavender purple eyes. "Police reports of there being what appears to be a bio-mechanical humanoid vampire bat hiding out at the abandoned Saint Rutherford Church, turning people into vampires. It also has a 650'000 decibel screech that can atomize most objects and cause steel to rust."
"Crap. That sounds like an Altered is causing problems in town." said Kazuki, as he then climbed into Nyte-Striker.
"Time to stomp an Altered into the ground!" said Nyte-Striker, as Kazuki then drove off.
Kazuki was speeding to the Saint Rutherford Church, and as he stopped, he looked to see some Shin-Shocker Combatmen terrorizing people. He took his helmet off, and did the same movements that Kotaro Minami did to become Kamen Rider BLACK mixed with his BLACK-RX transformation poses.
"HENSHIN!" said Kazuki, as the Nyte-Charger appeared on his waist, and he briefly transformed into a kaijin based off of an Australian plague locust before transforming into Rider Form. He looked like Kamen Rider Black Sun mixed with Kamen Rider Shin, but his helmet was a cross between Kamen Rider Black Sun and Kamen Rider Shadow Moon. His armor was black with silver markings, his gloves had clawed fingertips, his forearms had spines on them, and his optics were neon green in coloration. His belt was a silver colored version of the Meta Factor worn by Kamen Rider Gills.
"I am the child of the shadows, Kamen Rider…NOCTURNYTE!" said the transformed Kazuki, posing like BLACK-RX, as he then went to town, fighting the Shin-Shocker Combatmen, punching through one's head, severing their arms with his bare hands, crushing another's skull under his foot, and tore another in half.
He then walked towards the last Shin-Shocker Combatman, and began to slowly crush it's skull with his bare hands and crushed it's head to a pulpy mess.
"Now for the monster who is siring vampires." said Nocturnyte, as he entered the church.
As Nocturnyte entered the church, he looked to see the Bat Altered roosting at the roof.
"It was a mistake to come here, defect." said the Bat Altered, sounding almost similar to Dr. Nefarious from Ratchet & Clank.
"I'm here to send you straight down to Hell!" said Nocturnyte, determined to defeat the Bat Altered.
"I invite you to try." said the Bat Altered, as he spread out the wing membranes underneath his arms.
(BGM: "Shadows" by Tragedy Machine Plays)
Nocturnyte then looked to see the Bat Altered swoop down at him, with murderous intent, and was tackled. As the two duked it out, with Nocturnyte landing some punches on the bat monster, the Bat Altered sent Nocturnyte flying with his ultrasonic screech.
"Let's see how you fair against an aerial combatant like myself!" said the Bat Altered, glaring at Nocturnyte with the intent to kill. Nocturnyte entered a fighting stance. He then smashed a window, causing direct sunlight to come into contact with the Bat Altered.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" the Bat Altered yowled, screaming in pain as burns started forming on his body.
'He's vulnerable to direct sunlight. He must have a sensitivity to ultraviolet light.' Nocturnyte thought, as he kept smashing windows.
"STOP IT! STOOOOOOPPPPPP ITTTTTTT! ANGRYYYYYYY!" the Bat Altered screamed as he was burned by the direct sunlight. "Worthless little nobody…! Now….I'M ANGRYYYYY!" He swooped down with the intent to murder Nocturnyte in cold-blood, but the grasshopper-themed Rider then grabbed the wing membranes under the Bat Altered's arms, and tore them clean off.
The Bat Altered then backed away, scared for his life, and Nocturnyte, in one fearsome curb-stomp, then crushed the Bat Altered's skull under his foot, killing the monster almost instantly. He then took the claws from the monster's corpse.
"Maybe these can cure the affected people who have been turned into vampires." said Nocturnyte, as he then walked off. The Bat Altered's corpse dissolved to a paste, bones and all.
It shows Kazuki administering the cure to those who were turned into vampires by the Bat Altered, turning them back to normal.
"There. Now, the people who the monster had turned into Vampires are all back to normal." said Kazuki, smiling a little.
"Thank goodness." said Haruka, breathing a sigh of relief.
"And another Altered has been sent on a one-way trip to Hell." said Naoto, smiling a little.
Meanwhile, Naoto was being spied on by Takayuki Tsukimura, a member of Shin-Shocker who can transform into Shadow-Moon at will, but his Satan Saber could be drawn and sheathed like a regular sword.
(A.N: Takayuki's Shadow-Moon armor is red in color, and the Satan-Saber looks like the one from Kamen Rider Black Sun.)
'He's green as grass, but he's learning fast. He promises to be a rather impressive foe in the future.' thought Takayuki, as he then cut a portal back to the Shin-Shocker base with the Satan Saber

Next time, on Kamen Rider Nocturnyte, Kazuki has an encounter with the new Shadow Moon, Takayuki Tsukimura, who maintains an emotionless expression even when fighting, and manages to hold him off for a short time. Kazuki then learns of a Cobra Altered, whose venom can dissolve anything to a paste. Can Kazuki stop the Cobra Altered from causing any more havoc?
