Eternal Gaiden 2: Days of Peace

It was now morning as the sun was now rising and shines above the town.

Inside of his room, Kyoya felt the light of the sun through the small gaps in the window blinds as he slowly wakes up.

Kyoya then sits up as he yawns and stretches out his arms. He then felt a hand grabbing onto his arm.

"Kyoya...come back to bed…" Kyoya turns to his side and saw Sala lying beside him on the bed.

"Come on, Sala don't be like that. The sun is up." Kyoya said before he gently pokes on her cheek causing her to wake up as she slightly opened her eyes.

"Morning already?" Sala said as she sits up and rubs the sleep out of her eyes. "Why couldn't the sun gives us a few more minutes?"

"Come on, don't be like that." Kyoya chuckles as he flicks on her forehead. "You're a princess of the Freyja, so you need to be a good example for you people. And don't you have a meeting with Ange later today?"

"Yes, and you're right about that." Sala said as she got off the bed. "We should get ready."

"Good, because I'm supposed to meet up with Hayate, and Ken at the sports center at noon." Kyoya said as he got off of the bed as well.

They soon put on their clothes and Sala was brushing her hair and Kyoya opens the window to look at the town.

The town was now fully repaired six months ago, and now there was peace in the world.

"Man, hard to believe it's already been six months." Kyoya said.

"Yes, I know. But as much as I love the peace here, we can't allow it to make us soft." Sala told him as she stands up.

"Which is why you're going to have that meeting with Ange, right?" Kyoya asked as he turns to her.

"Yes, Embryo was one thing, but if another threat like him and Jin Kazu would ever return, we need to prepare ourselves in case threats like them would ever return." Sala told him.

"I hear you. And if they ever did, me, Hayate, and Ken will be right there beside you." Kyoya said, and Sala smiles lovingly at him.

"That is indeed good to hear." Sala said as she walks up and hugs him, and Kyoya returns the hug.

Kyoya and Sala soon leaves their room as they closed the door.

"I'll be in the council along with Ange. You take care of yourself." Sala told him.

"I will." Kyoya nodded.

Sala then leaves to meet up with Ange. Kyoya then checks the time on his Spider Shock in wrist watch mode, and saw that he has plenty of time until noon.

"Hmm...Maybe I'll go explore the town for a bit." Kyoya said before he leaves.

After leaving the temple, Kyoya was now walking through the town, and everyone around him gave him a greeting as he walked by them.

"Good morning, Kyoya-sama."

"Good day to you."

"I hope you had a good morning."

Kyoya kindly waved and smiled at them in return. Even after 6 months of living in this world, he still isn't used to the praise and attention he gets from the people.

Back in his old world he was just an average high schooler who was about to enter college and was still a Kamen Rider and Tokusatsu fan.

Now he's a Rider, a hero, savior of the world, and its protector.

After walking for a while, Kyoya soon come across a familiar pink haired woman and saw that it was the Norma Ersha.

"Oh hello, Kyoya." Ersha greeted the young man.

"Hey, Ersha." Kyoya greeted back.

"Hey, don't forget about me." They look and saw Vivian behind Ersha and with a groups of kids with her.

"Oh sorry about that Vivian-chan." Kyoya said, and then the kids begin to gather around him.

"Kyoya-sama, it's so good to see you." One of them said.

"Please, come play with us."

Kyoya, Ersha, and Vivian chuckles as they gathered around him.

"Okay, girls that's enough. Let's give, Kyoya some space." Ersha told them.

"Okay, Ersha-sensei." They nodded.

After that, the girls started to play with Vivian on grassy field, as Kyoya and Ersha watch them afar.

Three months ago Ersha had decided to retire from being a Para-mail pilot and moved to the People of Aura's town to become a teacher here.

"I'm still a little surprised that you decided to come live here, and that you wanted to be a teacher here." Kyoya said.

"Well I figured that this is the best path for me, and to help atone for what I've done." Ersha said with some sadness in her voice.

"Because of Embryo and how many of their people you've killed, right?" Kyoya asked and Ersha nodded. "Ersha, come on, it's been six months after all of that. And besides the others hadn't blame you for your choice, I mean you were being manipulated by Embryo."

"I know, but even so it's still no excuse for what I've done." Ersha said as she placed her hand on her arm. "I've let him control me because I was weak, and because of that those kids died again. Honestly, I still sometimes wonder why I'm still here while those girls are dead."

Kyoya breathes in and out before he sighs and rubs the back of his head.

"Well, I can't say I understand but I do know the feeling of lost." Kyoya said which gotten Ersha's attention as she turns to him. "I lost father when I was really young, so I don't remember him that well. And I've lost my mother when I was thirteen. There were also times when I wish they were still with me."

"I see." Ersha said before she turns forward. "I don't know either of my parents so I'm not sure what that's like, but I'm sorry to hear what happened to them."

"It's fine. It was sad and painful for a while, but I was able to move on from that." Kyoya said.

"How were able to do that?" Ersha asked.

"I look towards my friends and the people who are close to me. Because they are my strength." Kyoya told her, which surprised her. "Look, Ersha, losing people is never easy but no matter what we do, we can't change the past but all we can do is to move forward."

Ersha ponders about that before she smiles and nodded.

"Yeah, you're right about that. Thank you." Ersha said.

"It's no problem." Kyoya told her.

"Kyoya-sama!" Kyoya and Ersha looks and the children running towards him with Vivian behind them.

"Kyoya-sama, can you please tell us another story?" One of the children ask.

"Oh yes! Please tell us!" Another one said in an excited tone.

Kyoya chuckles by this.

"Okay, okay...Let me think…" Kyoya thinks about what kind of story to tell them and soon have an idea. "Okay, I got it. It's called Wizard The Promised Land, and Gaim Sengoku Battle Royal."

Kyoya then begins to tell them the story of the Wizard and Gaim: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle, in fact most of the stories he told them were based around the episodes and movies from the Kamen Riders series.

As a Kamen Rider fan, Kyoya spends most of his free time collecting the DVDs of each Kamen Rider season and the movies, he repeated watching them so many times, he memorized them in both mind and heart.

"And with the Bujin Riders' powers, they were able to break free from the sacred tree and used that chance to destroy Bujin Gaim once and for all. After his defeat and the destruction of the sacred tree, the rain has returned to the Bujin World and the people were overjoyed by this they immediately drop their weapons as they celebrated. And with their world in peace now, Gaim, Wizard and their friends return to their own world. The end." Kyoya said, and the kids were in complete awe on how incredible that story was.

"That was an incredible, Kyoya-sama!"

"I'm still a little sad about, Koyomi. But I'm glad that Wizard had made peace and accepted her death."

"Me too. And I'm glad the people in the Bujin World aren't going to fight each other again."

"Can you please tell us another story?"

"Sorry, girls, but I think that's enough of Kyoya's story time." Ersha told them.

"Aw…" They pouted to hear that.

"Now don't be like that, we have to go and continue your lessons." Ersha told them.

"She's right. You shouldn't forget that school is important." Kyoya told them.

"Okay." They said.

"Thank you for that. These girls tend to be a little stubborn sometimes." Ersha said.

"It's no problem." Kyoya said.

Ersha, Vivian, and the children said their goodbyes to Kyoya as they waved at him as they leave, and Kyoya waves them goodbye as well.

Kyoya then checks the time on his Spider Shock and saw that it was now 12 O'clock.

"Oh crap. I'm gonna be late." Kyoya said as he runs to the sports center.

After meeting up with Hayate and Ken they soon entered the sports center, and were in the bowling area of the building.

Hayate was up first as he stands in front of the lane and holding his bowling ball in his hand.

Hayate then runs down and throws the ball on the lane as it rolls on the smooth floor of it as the ball approaches the pins in front of it.

"Come on, come on…" Hayate said as his ball knocks down every pin when it made contact, giving him a strike. "Hell yes! Try to beat that."

It was now Ken's turn as he stands up and picks up his ball.

"Oh please, just watch the master." Ken said as he walks to the lane, and Hayate moves to the chairs.

Ken soon readies himself before he runs down and throw his ball on the lane but his aim was a bit off as it slowly approaches the gutters.

"No! No, no, no don't!" Ken pleaded but it was no use as the ball rolls onto the gutter and giving him a gutter ball. "Dang it…"

"Yeah, nice work there, master." Hayate said with a smug face.

"Okay, so my aim was a little off, it's not that big of a deal. And besides, that was only my first turn, I'm sure that happens to anyone." Ken stated.

"Sure it would." Hayate said not sounding convinced by that.

"Oh don't you start, Hayate." Ken warned him, and both Hayate and Kyoya chuckled in amusement.

"Anyway, it's my turn now." Kyoya said as he stands up and picks up his ball.

"Yeah, yeah…" Ken said as he walks to the chairs and Kyoya walks to the lane.

As Kyoya was readies himself, he was wondering how long this peace will last for, and if a new threat will come their way soon.

Kyoya breathes in and out to focus on the here and now.

'Best not to worry about that, nobody knows what the future holds. And if a new threat does appear, I'm sure we'll be able to defeat it. As long as we all work together, I'm sure we'll overcome it.' Kyoya thought before he runs down and throws his ball on the lane as it rolls and smashes down on every pin, giving him a strike.

"Nice!" Kyoya said with a smile on his face.

There you have it, I hope that you like it. Please review to tell me what you think.
