Disclaimer: Don't own anything! Kamen Rider belongs to Shotaro Ishinomori! I only own the OCs, the OC Riders and plot!
AN: If I haven't said this before, I'll say it now: I love Kamen Rider Black! It is my favorite Showa Kamen Rider show ever! I mean, how can any KR fan not like it? It has good story, good action, awesome main Rider, and the first evil Rider! I mean think about it!
Now, how is that related to this story? Well you're going to have to read to figure that out.
With this story, I've decided to show you the entire plot, like with KR Aura, because I've given up on this Rider due to working on my other fics. I've also decided to put some scenes to show you what I had written for some of my future chapters. Here is it, folks!
Plot
Chapter 1: Josh is your average foreign-exchange student in Tokyo University who is good friends with Rin, the daughter of well Professor Shigeru. One day, he and Rin find Shigeru is being chased by a spider monster. The thing it wants from Shigeru is the buckle that he has. Shigeru gives Josh the buckle to transform into Kamen Rider Dawn, who destroys the monster, unaware that a black and white cloaked figures were watching the whole thing.
Chapter 2: After encountering the monster, Shigeru explains to Josh and Rin that some monsters are after him for the buckle that Josh used to transform into Dawn. He made the buckle using a shard that he he found recently, but the monsters have been after it ever since. Shigeru states that when Josh transform into Dawn, the suit has a built in system that controls its user to fight. Josh agrees to become Dawn with Rin giving him some encouragement.
The two cloaked figure, Yami(black) and Hikaru(white) make another monster to look for Dawn. The monster is successful as it encounters Dawn. As they fight, the monster claims he works for an organization named Tartarus. The monster is destroyed and Josh tells Shigeru about the fight.
Chapter 3: A few weeks later, Josh's little brother, Ken, arrives in Tokyo to see Dawn fighting another monster. Ken identifies Dawn as Josh, and the two go to Shigeru's place, where Ken reveals he designed the Dawn suit and Rin's mom was killed by those monsters. Also, Shigeru states that the shard came form a powerful gem called a Kingstone. Before Ken leaves, he tells Josh not to get too close with Rin.
Chapter 4: A few days after Ken leaves, a new Rider named Night(a darker version of Dawn) appears and defeats a new monster. When Dawn tries to befriend Night, the new Rider attacks Dawn. The two fight and are left at a standstill as Night withdraws. Shigeru explains that Night was another buckle that he made using another shard he found, but it disappeared a couple of month ago.
Chapter 5: Ken arrives once more in Tokyo to give Shigeru some information he gained on more monsters appearing. As he does this, Rin and Josh are attacked by three monsters. Josh transforms into Dawn and destroys two, but the third one seriously injures Rin and escapes. Rin is taken to a hospital and Josh blames Ken for not doing anything as he leaves to find the third monster. Josh meets up with Night and the two have a temporary truce to stop it.
The remaining third monster then encounters a Rider, who kills the monster. Dawn and Night arrive to see the Rider, who calls himself Nebula, leader of Tartarus. Night and Dawn try to fight Nebula, but lose. Nebula reveals that Night is Adam, Josh's younger brother who disappeared almost a year ago, before leaving the two Riders. Dawn asks Night how he became a Rider, and Night explains his designs were the same as Dawn's, but the buckle that Night uses is unstable and made Night's armor fuses with its user's body, trapping Adam into this armored form for good. When Dawn asks about Tartarus, Night tells Dawn he's heard about Tartarus, but he only knows they're after Dawn.
That same day, Night encounters Yami and Hikaru, who take him to Nebula. Meanwhile, Josh is approached by a business man who claims to be apart of group of people who fight against Tartarus. Josh agrees to help them and joins their group, which happens to be Gorgom.
Chapter 6: A few weeks later, Rin is free from the hospital and meets up with Josh, who is now a high ranking member of Gorgom. Nebula appears and attacks Josh, who turns into Dawn. Night appears, but he fights Dawn instead of Nebula. Rin gets killed in the crossfire and Dawn runs off in grief. Nebula and Night meet up with Shigeru to tell him the news.
Chapter 7: When Night and Ken meet Shigeru, Shigeru states he knew Nebula for he was a former member of Tartarus. He explains to Night that Tartarus is a rival of Gorgom's who only wants to stop Gorgom from conquering the world. Tartarus chooses it's leaders for those who are born on the lunar eclipse, which Nebula was born on. Shigeru joined Tartarus after his wife was murdered by Gorgom's monsters.
Chapter 8: Shigeru also states he was responsible for commencing the operation that gave Nebula the power of his Kingstone. He also explains that the shard Night and Dawn uses were pieces from the a powerful gem called a Kingstone. This Kingstone happened to belong to the last leader of Gorgom, who was killed by Kamen Rider Black. Tartarus planned to seal away the shards to prevent anyone from abusing their power, but Shigeru stole them so they could be used to destroy Gorgom. Tartarus had been sending monsters to look for the shards, while Shigeru made the Night and Dawn buckles. The Night buckle fell into Adam's hands, but it had glitch that made him stuck as Night. The Dawn buckle was in Shigeru's hands until Josh took it.
Chapter 9: Dawn, in his grief, takes over Gorgom and commands his monsters to kill everyone in Tokyo. Yami and Hikaru get more monsters to fend off Gorgom's, while Ken and Night go to Dawn.
Chapter 10: After fighting some monsters, Ken and Night meet up with Josh. Ken tries to persuade his Josh to give up and reveals he's Nebula. Josh, in a fit of rage, transforms into Dawn and attacks Nebula. Nebula tries to explain that he only sent the monsters to take the Dawn buckle and not to hurt anyone, but Dawn doesn't listen. Night and Nebula fight Dawn as Yami and Hikaru lead Tartarus against Gorgom. Dawn ends up destroyed as well as Gorgom's monsters.
Nebula and Night bury Josh's remains next to Rin's. Nebula states he will continue to lead Tartarus, while Night agrees to be his second in command. The two stare off into the sky and the story ends.

Scene 1 (from chapter 3)
Josh arrived at Shigeru's house to see Ken sitting in the living room with Rin. She turned to face Josh. "Oh hey Josh!" Rin smiled.
Josh said nothing as he walked over to Rin and whispered into her ear, "Rin he knows I'm Dawn."
Rin's eyes widen as she turned to face Ken. "How did you know it was Josh?" Rin asked.
"Like I said, his voice was a dead giveaway," Ken explained.
"But how do you know about Dawn?" Josh demanded. Ken was his little brother and he didn't like secrets being kept.
Ken couldn't help chuckle. "What's so funny?" Rin inquired.
"You mean you haven't figured it out!" Ken laughed. "Haven't you looked at the designs and noticed anything familiar?"
Both Josh and Rin looked at each other. Familiar? What was Ken talking about? Josh thought really hard about it. He remember looking at the designs that Shigeru gave him. Was in something in the armor? The buckle? What was it! The designs were drawn perfectly that-
Josh stopped thinking. It hit him! The style that the designs were drawn! It was drawn exactly like how Ken would draw his artworks. Josh looked at his younger brother. "You made the designs!" Josh exclaimed.
Rin looked at Ken in shock. They could here chuckling from Shigeru as he entered the room. "About time you figured it out," Ken grinned. "Shigeru was never a good at drawing, so someone had to make the designs."
"Hey!" Shigeru said, offended.
"But why you?" Rin questioned. "Otou-san never told me about him coming to you!"
"I never went to him," Shigeru explained. "He came to me."
"What are you talking about?" Josh demanded.
"Well, it's actually simple" Ken began. "I found out about Shigeru's project when he left a message that meant for dad. I also overheard the entire thing about the monsters, as well as the shard that turns you into Dawn. I convinced Shigeru to let me in on the whole thing and I made the designs. Simple as that."
Josh looked at Ken. "Then, you know..." he started off, but Ken cut him off.
"Yeah," Ken nodded. "I know about those monsters. What I don't know is where they're coming from."
Rin nodded, understand Ken's explanation, but she had one question. "But what does that have to do with you, dad?"
Shigeru froze at the question. Ken's eyes moved towards Shigeru, wondering if he would answer. The professor did, explaining, "Well, you see, your mother and I found that shard some years ago," Shigeru explained. "We had no idea what is was, so we both experimented with the shard to see what its properties were. And..." Shigeru bit his lip, trying hard to continue.
"I'll take it from here," Ken told Shigeru before facing Josh and Rin. "Your parents came in contact with these monsters. They wanted the shard badly, but your mother refused to give it to them and they..." he paused, "... killed her."
Rin was shocked by this. "W-what!" She looked at her father only to see shame on his face.
"I'm sorry, Rin," Shigeru glumly stated. "There was nothing I could do."
Rin ignored her dad and rushed towards her room. Once they heard the door to her room close, Ken looked at his brother. "I'd better come back later," Ken said while getting up. He was at the door and he turned back around to face his older brother. "Josh, a piece of advice," Ken said, getting his brother's attention. "Don't get too attached to Rin."
Josh looked at Ken. "What are you talking about?"
His brother did not reply as he turned around to leave through the door.
Scene 2 (From chapter 5, when Nebula first appears.)
A lone figure ran across the rooftops of the Tokyo's buildings. The figure was actually a Kaijin, who was based off of an orca. It had fins sticking out of its forearms and spine. Its body was covered in black with few white spots all over. It had blue eyes and had sharp teeth. This was the Orca Kaijin.
The Orca Kaijin stopped its run, panting heavily as it leaned against a nearby rail. "I've finally found you," a voice spoke.
The Orca Kaijin jumped at that voice and turned around to see who said that. Apparently it came from a figure who stood underneath a large pile of beams and rails. Though the figure's features were concealed by the shadows of the rails, the Orca Kaijin could tell from the figure's outline it was a masculine figure, one who he recognized immediately. "My lord!" the Orca Kaijin exclaimed, immediately kneeling at the shadowed figure. "What brings you here?"
"What brings me here is about your mission," the shadowed figure snarled at the Orca Kaijin, sending shivers down its spine. "Not only have you failed, you've also gone too far."
The Orca Kaijin immediately stood up, fear growing in its eyes. "Please forgive me, my lord!" it pleaded. "The human was in the way!"
"That is no excuse!" he roared. "Now, face your punishment!"
After he said that, the shadowed figure stretched his right hand out into the light, revealing a white armor gauntlet. "Please don't!" the Orca Kaijin begged. "I'll do anything to make it up to you!"
However, it pleas fell on deaf ears as electricity shot out of the figure's hand and struck the Orca Kaijin, making it scream in pain and terror. Time passed and the shadowed figure still continued to electrify the Orca Kaijin until nothing was left, except for a pile of ashes in it's place. The shadowed figure stepped out into the light to see the remains of the Orca Kaijin, revealing his form.
The figure was decked in white armor with small patches revealing a blue bodysuit. His chest plate had black lines, depicting the abdomen of a cricket. He had black trims on his round shoulder guards, gauntlets, and boots. The figure's gauntlets and boots also had spikes that gave the figure a menacing appearance. The figure had a black mouth guard on his round helmet that had mouth plates shaped as mandibles, giving him a more menacing look. On his helmet was a V-shaped horn that protruded between the two blue eye pieces as well. Around his waist was a black belt with a blue gem in the center of it.
The figure turned around to leave only to see two figures standing in his way. He recognized them immediately. "Dawn and Night," he whispered to himself.
Dawn wears crimson red armor over his black bodysuit. His red chest plate and shoulder guards had silver trimmings on the edge. The smooth gauntlets and boots he wore had blue crystals emblemed into them. The red, round helmet he wore had a white stripe that down the center of the helmet as well as a blue jewel and a pair of antennae that protruded from the center of his forehead. Dawn has sapphire round eyes covering his own as well as a mouth guard with silver plates that made it seemed to shaped like mandibles of cricket. Around Dawn's waist was a white belt with a blue gem in the center of his red, hexagonal buckle.
Night's armor looked similar to Dawn's, but he wore dark blue armor over his dark gray bodysuit. The trims on his chest plate and should guards were jet black instead of silver, and the gems on his gauntlets and boots were violet, the same color of jewel between his eyes and the jewel on his helmet. The belt was white, but the hexagonal buckle was blue with a violet gem in the center.
They both stopped where they were at the sight of the ashes of the Orca Kaijin on the ground before looking at the figure. Night immediately took a stance, demanding, "Who are you!"
The figure smirked underneath his mouth guard as he placed a hand on his armored chest. "My name is Nebula, the leader of Tartarus."
Night and Dawn froze where they were as shivers ran up their spines. Before them stood the leader of Tartarus, their enemy. If the leader of Tartarus was this powers, then could they beat him?
Scene 3 (From chapter 5, when Night meets Yami and Hikaru.)
Night leaped roof to roof through the dark sky of Tokyo. Night did have some bruises from his fight with Nebula, but they quickly healed, so he didn't have worry too much about them. Still, the fight with Nebula made Night wonder where did Tartarus' leader got that power, and how did Nebula know so much about him and Dawn. There were so many questions running through Night's mind, but he tried to pay attention to his little exercise.
Suddenly, Night felt a tingling sensation going through his body. He looked over his head to see two cloaked figures were flying behind him. One wore white, while the other wore black. They both wore hoods over their heads, concealing their facial features. Night recognized immediately as Yami(the one in black) and Hikaru(the one in white), Tartarus' high commanders.
Immediately, Night landed on the nearest rooftop and turned around to see the two cloaked figure slowly descend onto the rooftop. Night gave Yami and Hikaru a suspicious look. "What do you want?" he demanded as he took a stance. "Do you to want to kill me?"
Yami immediately replied, "We do not wish to fight."
"Then what are you here for then?" Night demanded.
"Our master wishes to speak with you," Yami explained.
Night knew who they were talking about. "Nebula," he deduced as he lowered his stance.
"Correct," a voice from behind stated.
Night saw Yami and Hikaru immediately kneeling towards the owner of the voice. The Rider turned around to see who it was, and his eyes widen in fear at the sight of Nebula standing at the edge of the roof. "What are you doing here?" Night demanded.
"My servants already told you I wanted to talk with you," Nebula replied in a calm voice as he looked down upon the city.
"About what though?"
"About Tartarus, about your origins," Nebula listed before looking at Night, "and about Dawn's situation."
"How do I know what you're talking about is true?" Night questioned.
Nebula walked away from the edge of the roof and towards Night. "To prove it to you, let me show you my true form," Nebula said.
Once he said that, the gem on Nebula's buckle glowed as a sphere made of white energy surrounded his entire body. Nebula watched as armor was ripped off of Nebula's body. Once sphere faded, Nebula's true form stood before Night. Night's eyes widen underneath his helmet at recognizing Nebula's true form. "You!"
Scene 4 (From chapter 10, when Ken confronts Josh.)
In the dark throne room of Gorgom's headquarters, Josh sat there patiently, waiting for his Kaijin to return and report to him the demise of Tokyo's citizens. It had only been an hour since he took over Gorgom and ordered every Kaijin to exterminate the humans in Tokyo. As he waited, Josh looked at the picture in his hand, which showed him and Rin standing together outside of Tokyo University. It reminded Josh of all the times they spend together, both good and bad.
But it also reminded him of his fight with Nebula. After getting Rin out of the hospital, Josh told her about Gorgom and how they helped her in her surgery. It seemed to be a perfect moment, but then Nebula had to appear and attacked Josh. Night also appeared, but he betrayed Josh by siding with Nebula. As Dawn tried to fend off Nebula and Night, Rin was caught in the crossfire of Nebula's attack. He could remember seeing her body being turned into a smoking corpse as she screamed in pain and terror.
A tear ran down Josh's face as he remembered every detail of that battle. It was unbearable for him to comprehend that Rin was gone from his life. Rin was there for him when he needed it, giving him support. Now, she was gone. 'I'm sorry Rin,' he thought as he stared at Rin's photo. 'I'll make everyone in this city pay for what has happened! I swear it!'
Josh's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of footsteps. He brought his vision from the picture and towards the room to see a lone figure in the shadows. "Who's there?" Josh called out to the shadows.
"It's me Josh," a figure answered as he stepped out of the light.
Josh's eyes widen as he saw the figure was his little brother. "Ken, what are you doing here?"
Ken looked at his older brother with determination in his eyes. "Stopping you, Josh," he answered.
Josh froze at what his little brother said. He then laughed. "Stopping me!" he repeated in between laughs. "How can you even possibly do that! You're just a normal human!"
"Wrong, Josh," Ken firmly stated as he stepped forward. "I'm far more than just another human."
After saying that, a belt materialized around Ken's waist. Josh stopped laughing and stared at the belt, immediately recognizing it. Around Ken's waist was a black belt with a blue gem in the center of it. "That's..." Josh began, but was cut off by Ken.
"Henshin," Ken said.
A bright white orb of energy engulfed Ken's body, blinding Josh for a while. The orb disappeared, and now another being stood in Ken's place. It was... "Nebula," Josh's eyes widen.
Yes, before him stood Nebula in place of Ken. Josh gaped at what was before him. His own little brother, Ken, who he known for so long, was the leader of Tartarus, the one behind every monster that attacked Josh for his powers. The same person who was responsible for Rin's death.
Josh immediately took out his hexagonal buckle and placed it on his stomach, the belt fastening his buckle. "HENSHIN!" Josh shouted as he pressed the button on top of his buckle.
A bright flash of red energy shot out of Josh's buckle and engulfed his body, transforming him into Dawn. Once transformed, Dawn charged at Nebula, throwing a punch at the leader of Tartarus only for Nebula to block it before forcing Dawn back with a kick to the stomach. But that didnt' stop Dawn as he once again charged at Nebula, throwing as much punches as he could.
"Josh, stop it!" Nebula shouted as he dodged the punches. "I'm your brother!"
"You're not my brother!" Dawn shouted. "You sent all those monsters after me! You caused Rin to die!"
"I never wanted to her to get involved in the first place!" Nebula explained. "I've only sent my Kaijin after you to retrieve the buckle, not to harm anyone!"
Unfortunately, Nebula's words fell on deaf ears as Dawn landed a punch in his armored chest, forcing him back. Dawn threw another punch, but Nebula smacked it away before punching Dawn in the face. It was now Nebula's turned as he landed some more punches on his older brother, each one hitting its target, before Nebula placed an electrified hand on Dawn's chest, sending him flying into his throne. Dawn recovered from that attack as he stood, glaring at Nebula. "YOU WILL PAY!" Dawn roared, his voice echoing throughout the entire room.
Nebula let out a sigh. "I'm sorry Josh," Nebula said as he curled his hand into a fist.
However, it was to late for any apologies for any relations between the brothers were broken as the two charged at each other. One fought with anger and for vengeance, while the other fought to stop his opponent from causing any destruction. From that moment on, their brotherly bonds were broken by their beliefs.
The final battle had begun.
AN (EDIT-4/20/2017): Well, that's all I wrote for KR Dawn before I gave up on it. Please leave a review to state your thoughts about it and like I said before, this idea can be adopted by other authors. Just PM me, or leave a review and we can discuss it from there.
Now, it's a cop out to show my entire story before I've even written it, but I've given up on it entirely. It is short, but that's just the basis of the story without any filler chapters, or extra chapters that may be convenient to the plot. The author who writes this fic can add those chapters if he or she wants to.
Also, I wanted this Rider to be more tragic, since we don't see that kind of thing (except in Ryuki). Most Riders usually want to help out people because they can be good-natured, but we've rarely seen the main Rider being corrupted. That's why I wrote this and that's why I hope some other author will adopt this idea (and hopefully, make it better).
That's all for now-Raika out!
