Reviews:
merendinoemiliano: It was Rampage Gatling in the story.
MKDemiGodzilla-Warrior: We wrote this way before Outsiders, so Zero-Three is 'Sir Not Appearing In This Film'.
Shooting Star Dragon 3000: That's Zero-One's biggest secret, it's always been Gai's fault.
Here are some reviews answered by our own GreyKing46:
Shooting Star Dragon 3000: Secret of Zero One, it is all Gai's fault
MKDemiGodzilla-Warrior: As we said twice in the review replies last time. No Zero Three. This was written at the beginning of the year-long before that episode came out
merendinoemiliano: Rampage Gattling, his final form, was his final form in the story

We open to... what could only be described as horror. Kamen Rider Valkyrie and Kamen Rider Hiden falling from near the top of the building. Dozens upon dozens of stories high, rushing to the ground from an explosion from within said building.
Yua and Izu were thrown through the window, plummeting to the ground.
Yua twisted and stabbed her scythe into the wall, catching herself, while Izu unleashed her wings.
Meanwhile, Ark Scorpion jumped out, landing hard on the ground... In front of the two Zero-One's, MetsuBou Jin and Vulcan.
"You!" Eve called out as she saw him.
"So, it seems you followed me back. I take it my flock gave you some trouble?" Ark Scorpion smirked as he began to approach the group, laughing softly.
"You are not going anywhere!" Fuwa glared, aiming his ShotRiser at Ark Scorpion.
"Fuwa, don't!" Yua called out as she attempted to leap down so her partner could hear.
"No, I don't think so." Ark Scorpion answered as he caught the bullets like before.
"What the-?!" Fuwa's eyes widened.
"Tried that too. It didn't work!" Yua called out as she leapt from the rafters and landed next to the group.
"You won't escape this time!" Eve called out.
"Sorry, my dear. I'm afraid you're wrong." Ark Scorpion answered.
"Watch out!" Izu called out as she flew down to protect Eve and Aruto.
As she shielded the two, Ark Scorpion created a controlled explosion in the area, creating a large plume of purple mist and vanished.
"No! Damn it!" Horobi glared as Ark Scorpion vanished. "COWARD!"
"Dad, calm down. We'll get him." Jin reassured, trying to calm his robotic father.
"We had him!" Horobi glared.
"You're just mad because he's using your animal, aren't you?" Naki almost deadpanned.
"Furious actually," Horobi answered, getting calmer in his tone.
"Master Horobi, we'll get him." Eve reassured. 'He's more chill in the future.'
Horobi shook his head as they detransformed and looked at each other. "Where is he going? Yua? Izu?"
"He's going after Zea. He has a USB that contains information." Izu explained. "About the rocket launch codes."
"Meaning he just needs a Zero One Driver." Aruto frowned, crossing his arms calmly as the group cancelled their transformations.
"Doesn't he already have one with that corrupted Driver of his?" Yua asked.
"Technically. But the Driver was originally the 'Zero-Two Driver'." Eve answered.
"The ZeroTwoDriver is a closed system," Aruto explained. "If he's trying to corrupt Zea, he needs a ZeroOneDriver and the passcodes that are part of its natural design."
"If he corrupts Zea, turns her into another Ark... It will be an apocalypse." Izu frowned.
"I see." Yua commented, seeing a red and black dressed HumaGear rushing towards them carrying a Progrise key.
"Ms Yaiba. I've brought what you've asked." The HumaGear spoke.
"Ah, thank you Shesta." Yua answered as she took the Key.
"Wait, is that a-?" Fuwa asked.
"New Progrise Key. One that might help deal with this monster's power." Yua answered, showing it off.
It was a large blue key with a golden wolf head depicted on the black screen part. The back of the key looked almost like a shoulder stock from its curved, almost crescent moon, shape. No words were written upon it.
She threw the key to Fuwa, the older man catching it easy.
"Your messenger was intercepted by Magia, I made an executive choice to hurry and get it from them to assist you all." Shesta smiled.
"Shesta?" Eve asked as she looked at the new HumaGear.
"Yes?" Shesta asked as she looked at Eve and saw a similarity between her and Izu.
Shesta had her hair tied back in a bun, wearing a white and red-edge suit-skirt with black gloves, long red stockings and red shin-high boots.
"Hey Shesta... This is Eve. Izu and my daughter from the future... It's complicated." Aruto chuckled.
Shesta was frozen as she heard that, but her AI mind was calculating it to process everything. "Natures of time paradoxical proportions. I will compartmentalize."
"Fuwa, let's go." Yua ordered.
"Right. Naki?" Fuwa commented, his partner nodding their head, before the three walked off.
"Where are you going?!" Aruto called in worry.
"To the rocket station. To deal with this guy." Fuwa commented, working out Yua's plan.
"It is too dangerous for you or Eve to go, so we will end it. Don't worry, we've got this." Yua smiled.
"I...Hmm." Aruto grumbled as he saw them go, worried for their safety.
"Don't worry, Prez. We'll scrap that damn monster." Fuwa reassured.
"You're gonna need backup," Horobi answered.
"We should handle any more Magia that turn up. If this guy's causing more trouble just to slow us down." Jin suggested.
"That's a good idea." Shesta agreed.
"Alright, we'll split up. But please stay in contact." Aruto asked, almost pleading for their safety.
Fuwa just gave a casual wave, getting up on his bike with Naki slipping on behind him.
"Be safe." Eve whispered, soon looking at her father and mother.
"They will be, they're a good team." Izu answered.
Aruto nodded as he contacted AIMS to protect the HumaGears and human employees of Hiden Intelligence, making sure that they were alright. "Thank you, Captain. I appreciate this."
"Of course, President Hiden." The Captain answered as they hung up.
"Staying on top of things, dad?" Eve asked.
"As best as I can. All of this cannot get out of hand." Aruto answered, getting a little paranoid from the Priest and his surge of controlled minions.
Eve and Izu nodded as they saw this, seeing how much Aruto was putting on himself as he wanted to end Ark's cruelty and abuse once and for all. But to stop him, they would have to deal with this fanatic. And hopefully, they wouldn't have to worry with Yua's new Progrise Key.
*With Fuwa and Yua*
"So, this new Key. You got a name for it?" Fuwa asked Yua as they drove.
Yua chuckled as she heard him, almost like a child with a new toy. "It doesn't, but I think you'll be surprised by what it's called when you use it."
"Oh come on, Yua. Let him have his toy." Naki teased.
"Naki, please." Fuwa groaned.
"Please spare us from your family dynamics. We've got jobs to do." Horobi rolled his eyes.
"You're just jealous because Isamu and I get along so well." Naki chuckled.
'Is this a family drama?' Yua thought in shock as she heard this.
"Hey, knock it off back there, or I'm turning this car around," Fuwa called out.
"Yes, 'dad'." Jin joked, while Naki just smirked as they were thinking of something else.
"I'm guessing this is a regular occurrence for you?" Yua asked.
"Don't get me started, Yaiba." Fuwa deadpanned as he drove. "We've got to find this priest guy."
"Just follow the GPS," Yua said simply, having already worked out where to go.
"Alright, he's this way," Fuwa answered, quickly looking at his phone for the coordinates.
At the location, The Priest was walking with a good stride, his mission was soon to be accomplished. "Soon, My Lord Ark. Your glory shall reign over this planet."
He had arrived at the space station, where he was going to use the rocket to approach Zea's floating comatose self.
"Hey! Who're you?" Guards at the station called out, demanding to know who was approaching them.
"A visionary, and shepherd of a new future." The Priest answered as he looked at the human workers.
The guards were confused and shocked, realising that this was the HumaGear President Hiden warned them about!
"Stay where you are! You aren't allowed in here!" The guards ordered.
"You don't command me." The Priest answered as he smiled maliciously and pulled out an Attache Weapon.
Their eyes widened in shock, seeing the weapon drawn on them, before they could even reach their own before they were fired upon and disabled, lying on the floor in pain as they were taken out.
'None can stop this ascension. Lord Ark *will* return!' The Priest thought to himself as he approached the station and ignored the sounds of the cars behind him.
"Stay where you are, thief!" Horobi called out demandingly.
"Why bother with this song and dance, Metsu? You know how this will end. I know how this will end." The Priest answered casually. "I am an infinitude greater than all of you!"
"Do not call me 'Metsu'." Horobi glared as he attached the ForceRiser to his waist.
FORCERISER!
"Why not embrace your true name? It's what you were made for." The priest answered.
"Oh, shut up." Naki called out. "I bet you disowned your real name."
"Of course I did. I serve our lord and master!" The Priest answered. "I am merely the voice of his will."
"Then you're just crazy and stupid. A bad combination." Fuwa answered as he and Yaiba slammed the car doors closed.
"And you don't know when to quit. My system is far beyond you." The Priest answered as he attached his Driver to his waist.
"We've had an upgrade since then." Fuwa answered, pulling out the Key.
"You break it or rip it open, I'll break your arm." Yua threatened him without raising her voice or looking at Fuwa.
Fuwa mumbled as he was warned, but readied himself for the fight.
He raised his hand and pressed the button on the key... Making it spring open!
VULCAN BULLET!
...
"It springs?!" Fuwa double-took in shock, while Yua looked smug as hell.
The Key's frame was silvery blue with a dark blue translucent screen and a red outline of a wolf head. Inside of the Key was the 'skeletal appearance' of a wolf head made of machine parts.
Fuwa brushed it off as he slotted the Key into his ShotRiser, the silver, blue and red lights shining from the screen.
ALPHA AUTHORISE!
Kamen Rider!
Kamen Rider!
Kamen Rider!
Naki, Jin, Horobi and Yaiba each brought out their Keys, ready to transform after Fuwa.
"HENSHIN!" The Wolf Rider proclaimed as he fired, which produced three metallic energy bullets. One shining silver, one burning red and one deep blue.
SHOTRISE! V3!
The bullets flew around the area, attacking the Priest before ricocheting back to Fuwa.
GROWLING!
The first bullet was back-handed by Fuwa, forming one part of his Rider transformation, his bodysuit, but it was still forming.
HOWLING!
The second bullet was kicked away, shattering to form his leg and chest armour, holograph forming and settling down on his person.
PROWLING!
The third and final bullet aimed for his head, but he caught it in his hand as it exploded and formed over his arms and head to form armour and a helmet.
VUL~CAN~! VERSION 3!
Fuwa's armour was finally created. A dark blue bodysuit with silver circuitry; his boots and finned shin guards were silver with red and dark blue edges. His thigh guards were silver with red circuitry markings along the edge, the chest armour was reinforced silver with dark blue and red markings along the sides and down the centre. His shoulder guards were overlapped with silver and dark blue plating with red markings between the folds. His arm guards were silver and finned like wolf fangs with dark blue markings; and lastly was his helmet, dark blue with silver ears and light blue eyes with a 'mane', on the right side was silver and blue that looked overlapped together, but on the left was red and spiked, giving a stylised '3'.
The Pack Leader, Skill And Strength, As One
"This... This power..." Fuwa muttered as blue and red sparked around his form for a few seconds before he smirked and clenched his fist "Alright! Now it's time... For you to get scrapped!" He roared as the lightning vanished with a slight pulse, Vulcan's eyes flashing.
JAPANESE WOLF!
POISON!
INFERNO WING!
ROYAL THUNDER!
"Henshin!" The four cried.
SHOTRISE!
FORCERISE!
SLASHRISE!
PERFECTRISE!
Surrounding Naki, Horobi, Jin and Yua were their Rider Module Animals.
The wolf for Naki.
Horobi's scorpion.
Jin's burning falcon.
ORTHRUS VULCAN!
STING SCORPION!
BURNING FALCON!
And finally, two new animals. A queen bee and thylacine modules wrapped around Yua, as she wore the ThousanDriver around her waist.
WHEN THE ROYAL WINGS GAIN THE SAVAGE POWER, THE STORMING WARRIOR VALKYRIE IS REBORN!
Yua's body was soon covered by a golden and black bodysuit, a black interior on the legs up to her torso with golden thighs that went up to her arms and neck. Her boots were plain silver and white that went up to her shins with orange straps that bound them to her leg. On her chest was a modified chest plate that looked like Yua's Lightning Hornet plate, a hexagon design with white and silver colours on an orange background, her shoulder guards jutted out like the Lightning Hornet protection. Two upper-arm guards with two spiked protrusions and orange bracers with silver and white markings. And lastly was her helmet, a silver and white-faced mask with blue eyes with an orange cheetah outer frame with three added 'horns' which looked to be her queen bee wings and stinger between and with her 'ears'.
Presented by Hiden
"Very well. It is your funeral." The Priest answered as he transformed into Ark Scorpion once again. "No matter what you throw at me, my goal and victory is the same."
"Oh, shut your mouth!" Naki groaned.
"We're going to break that armour right off your scrapped body!" Fuwa roared as he rushed forward, followed by Yua and Naki and then Horobi and Jin.
Yua and Jin were aerial support as Naki and Horobi ran on the ground to back Fuwa up, who launched himself forward and landed a strong punch against their enemy.
SLAM!
"Grrhn!" Ark Scorpion grunted as he felt his helmet being punched...and this was a very strong hit coming from Fuwa, which gave him cause for concern.
'This strength. How? This wasn't in the future!' He thought as he was pushed back, by claws and stingers.
GRIP!
The concrete and dirt under Ark Scorpion's feet were being dug up by the force of the attacks.
"Where? Did this? Come from?" Ark Scorpion growled as he pushed back.
"You don't need to know that!" Fuwa answered, slamming his fist into Ark Scorpion's stomach.
"GAH!"
"Just get scrapped!" Naki roared as they slashed into him.
*With Aruto*
He and Izu were making sure the company's staff and HumaGears were alright. This devastation to the company was shaking morale as well as the building itself.
"Thank you, Miss." The employees responded as Eve helped out.
"Thank you, Izu." others responded.
"Citizens secured, President Hiden." The AIMS Officer informed Aruto.
"Thanks, Captain. I appreciate it." Aruto responded as he gave a firm handshake to the captain.
"President Aruto, everyone's here." Izu spoke.
"Thank goodness. Have you seen Eve?" Aruto asked Izu, not sure where their daughter was.
"I'm not sure." Izu answered as Aruto checked his pocket.
"...Where's-? Where's my phone?" He asked. "Eve Jackrised my phone!"
...
"Really, sir? Now?" A certain familiar vice-president deadpanned.
"Let me cope, Mr Fukuzoe." Aruto turned to see his vice president. "If not now, when?"
The old man was in his fifties, with black hair, wearing a black and white suit, red tie and polished black shoes.
Mr Fukuzoe sighed at that. "Very well, Sir. But what would your...daughter? Need with your phone?"
Aruto shrugged and then Izu produced a message. "President Aruto. Eve has left us a message."
"What is it?" Aruto asked.
"Father, I'm sorry I stole your phone, but I need it to take the RiseHopper.
I'll return it later, but I needed a head start to stop the Priest.
We'll rise towards a new future.
Hai, Eve ja~naito"
...
Aruto was tearing up as he heard that, Izu giving the message. "That's my girl."
'Oh, good lord, there are two of them.' Mr Fukuzoe thought to himself.
"We have to get to the Space Station." Izu informed.
"Hopefully, Fuwa and the others will have held off that Priest long enough for us to get there." Aruto agreed.
*At the fight*
Ark Scorpion grunted as he was holding back the five of them. And Fuwa seemed to be unrelenting in his assault. Punch after punch. Shot and slash. Sting and strike. They were going to destroy him.
'How strong can this wild wolf get?' Ark Scorpion thought to himself as he was pushed back.
Rev it up!
Fuwa and Naki were standing side by side as Horobi was flanked by Jin and Yua. The synchronicity of their groups could not be understated.
The two wolves rushed forwards, their claws protruding as they attacked Ark Scorpion, causing sparks to fly off the armour. Streams of blue and grey blurs trailed behind Fuwa and Naki as they attacked Ark Scorpion, sparks flying from their fists and claws, as their enemy used their stingers to attack back.
A wild child with a lot to prove.
Horobi, Jin and Yua flew in, Horobi using his Attache Arrow to fire at Ark Scorpion as cover fire, while Yua and Jin slashed the daggers.
I'm a sheddin' off the shame and the dead, dead weight.
Both using their SlashRisers as bladed weapons, the two performed a series of rapid and dramatic slashes only for stingers from Ark Scorpion to block from every direction. This madman seemingly had an unlimited supply.
A live wire with a broken fuse.
A hand suddenly emerged from the horde of metal tentacles and wrapped around Jin's neck, holstering him into the air dramatically.
"Ji-" Yaiba yelled, only to be backhanded by their foe.
We will never be the same, but we're bound by fate!
The Priest dragged Jin closer, trying to smash his fist through the HumaGear, only for Horobi to come rushing in with a slash of his arrow. Twisting himself, sensing the attack, the dark Rider grabbed the weapons bladed edge and slammed son into father.
BOOM!
The two smashed hard into the ground, the AttacheArrow send flying into the distance.
Overturned and overrun
Smirking, his red eye flashing, Ark Scorpion attempted to activate his belt's finisher... only for a knee to smash against his face.
From the depths to paradise!
It was Vulcan!
Energy flowed off Fuwa's new armour as time seemed to freeze around the two, Fuwa even moving in slow motion while the impact force sent the Priest spinning fast.
Shifting himself, Fuwa brought his other foot out in a dramatic kick. His side kick hitting the evil Rider hard in the ribs making him roar in pain.
Hope and roses, on the guns!
Spinning again the two quickly shifted their weight in the air and aimed a punch at one another. Their fists collided with each other's chest armour, sending them flying away from each other.
Ark Scorpion landed on his feet despite his injuries, skidding against the ground and grunting as his armoured feet ripped apart the ground.
While Fuwa rolled across the ground dramatically, but still in one piece. The roll reduced the damage and impact, soon coming to a stop in a crouch next to Naki.
Take me down to the afterlives!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
Fuwa and Naki pulled out their ShotRisers and began to fire at close range, giving no quarter to Ark Scorpion.
Ark Scorpion grunted as his armour was deflecting the bullets and attempted to wrap them in his stingers.
Three times the power and three times the pain!
The two wolves attacked the stingers, attempting to rip themselves out of them as the others flanked and struck from behind. The two quickly holstered into the air as they kicked and wiggled in the tight metal grip that was trying to crush them.
Three times the confidence!
Progrise Key Confirmed! Ready to utilize Scorpion's Ability!
Horobi pulled back the draw of his Attache Arrow and shot, creating purple arrows to pin the thief of his motif.
Tear down the walls and fire up the flames.
STING! KABAN SHOOT!
Jin and Yua flew around, stabbing with her Thousand Jacker and slashing with the SlashRiser as they seemed to form an energy 'X'.
We strive for providence!
Ark Scorpion howled in pain, releasing Fuwa and Naki as he was sent flying
Don't stop, build it up!
"Now!" Naki roared as they quickly slammed their key and their ShotRiser.
We are the energy!
JAPANESE WOLF!
OTHERUS BLAST! FEVER!
Don't stop, show your style!
"HA!" Naki roared as they jumped into the air, coming down with a dramatic side kick as an icy wind surrounded their foot. A wolf's head formed around them for a moment.
Don't stop, build it up!
The attack hit hard, their foot digging into Ark Scorpion's chest. The dark Rider smashed into the ground back first, the momentum of Naki's kick pushing them for several feet as the white wolf howled with power.
It's Electricity!
"Get... OFF!" Ark Scorpion roared, catching Naki by surprise as he unleashed several Stinger's that hit Naki's thighs and stomach, almost ripping through their armour as the agender Rider was sent flying away from their foe.
Don't stop, keep it wild!
Ark Scorpion quickly got to his feet again, growling as he saw Jin rushing down at him.
BURNING REIGN!
He quickly moved, ready to block the attack, when another noise filled the air.
A split soul with a bitter wound.
JACKRISE!
JACKING BREAK!
Yua's Jacker weapon sparked with her Lightning Hornet's ability, sending electricity through as it jabbed into his back; while Jin's attack was burning red hot and seared any wires within the armour. The sudden attack from two opposite angles got him, as he tried to block both at once.
I'm a feather, I'm a fang, I'm a dark, dark dream.
Fuwa, meanwhile, caught Naki in mid-air. The two quickly landed, their feet digging into the earth as their visor eyes glowed brightly.
"Naki. We've got this!" Fuwa spoke determinedly.
Become whole or become consumed.
"I know we do!" Naki answered, unsheathing their claws again, the wolves were ready to hunt.
With a shadow in my hands and a primal scream.
The two rushed together, their winds and dust trails left behind as Fuwa's body was much stronger than before, almost being able to fight on Zero-Two's levels!
AWOO!
The two wolves seemed to howl together, shocking Ark Scorpion as their Rider Modules seemed to form around them.
To erase the rational.
The two were streaks, the dark Rider only able to attempt to block or dodge one at a time allowing the other to get a sneak attack in. Jin nodded to Horobi and helped his father into the air for coverage and a straight shot.
Draw the words out of the page.
Fuwa and Naki kept going, rushing past him from multiple angles so fast in streaks of blue and white. A star almost formed around him from the multiple super-speed passes in a second.
To embrace the animal
The two launched at Ark Scorpion and with Fuwa and Naki's claws and leg fins seemed to 'bite down' on their enemy's armour. "GRAAARGH!"
The two slid down on the ground, Ark Scorpion feeling the bite of the wolves as he almost got to his knees.
Let the beast out of the cage!
JACKRISE!
JACKING BREAK!
Yua switched up the Thousand Jacker's power and aimed it right at The Priest, rushing forward with her Cheetah's speed flowing behind her.
Three times the power and three times the pain.
"Take THIS!" Yua called out as she stabbed forward and summoned the Buffalo Module to strike like a lance.
SLAM!
Ark Scorpion grunted as he was flung back, but his stingers acted like extra limbs so he could remain standing from the hit. "Argh! Not. Bad. But it won't be *that* easy to take me down!" he roared as he raced forward, Yua grunting as she was struck and sent flying while her Rider form began to glitch.
"I dunno, I think we're doing well!" Jin called out.
POISON! KABAN SHOOT!
Horobi launched more poisoned arrows down at Ark Scorpion, almost leaving a hologram of his own scorpion module.
Three times the confidence!
Ark Scorpion responded by using both hands to catch the attack, grunting as his arms shook. Using his full force to resist the damage and hold the energy back.
Tear down the towers and fire up the flames.
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
We strive for providence!
Ark Scorpion grunted and blocked as these Kamen Riders seemed to be overwhelming him. But his systems were superior to whatever they had... with Vulcan-3 being the exception. And that was making all the difference!
Don't stop, build it up
Ark Scorpion threw the attack to the floor and rushed forwards, energy surrounding his fist.
We are the energy!
"Jin, you're up!" Horobi called out, letting his son attack. Crossing his arms, taking the hit as he was sent flying. His armour sparked purple as he fell to the floor, his Rider form almost fading if the Rider wasn't holding it together through pure will.
"Got it!" He answered, dropping Horobi to the ground and setting himself alight with flames as he rushed in like a comet.
FWOOSH!
Don't stop, show your style.
Jin tackled Ark Scorpion and lifted him into the air, catching the evil HumaGear alight. "Hope you aren't scared of heights!"
Don't stop, build it up.
"Damn! You! Jin!" Ark Scorpion grunted as he stabbed into Jin's armour with his stingers. His attacks hitting the red armour again and again and again, cutting and ripping into the hero's form.
It's electricity!
Jin grunted as he bear-hugged the HumaGear and changed trajectory... and aimed right for the ground. Rushing to the ground like a rocket.
Don't stop, keep it wild.
Jin was spinning in the air, his mind was more used to these situations after much practice... though it did make him disoriented, his opponents more so.
Rev it up!
"NAKI! FUWA!" Jin called out as they crashed Ark Scorpion into the ground and he rolled out of the way. Jin grunted as his Rider form sparked as it barely stayed together.
"ON IT!" They answered in unison.
A firework in a glowing sky
Naki pushed the top of their Progrise Key and pulled the trigger, activating their finisher.
JAPANESE WOLF!
Through the hell and havoc stride.
O! R! T! H! R! O! S! B! L! A! S! T! F! E! V! E! R!
Cool smirk a smokin' style
"HAAAAA!" Naki roared as they rushed forward and leapt into the air, as a hologram of the twin-headed wolf howled and struck Ark Scorpion in the chest.
Rev my engines up and ride!
ORTHROS BLAST! FEVER!
Demon heart inside of me!
Ark Scorpion yelled as he was thrown back, his body sparking as he was hit by that finishing move.
Got the style to make the grade.
CRASH!
Clutter!
The dark Rider rolled across the ground, grunting and hissing in pain as he got to his feet.
Carve my name in ivory
"Time to scrap you!" Fuwa glared as he pushed the top of his Key with his whole fist, almost punching the Key, as Naki landed.
Devil tears upon the blades.
ALPHA BULLET!
Fuwa's ShotRiser began to spark and pulse with energy as he reached down and attempted to pull the trigger as he rushed forwards to close the distance.
Three times the power and three times the pain.
"HAAAA!" Fuwa roared as he leapt into the air, Ark Scorpion pushed his own Key into his belt.
Three times the confidence!
H! A! T! R! E! D! I! M! P! A! C! T!
Tear down the towers and fire up the flames.
The two of them leapt into the air, Ark Scorpion's stingers surrounding his legs as Fuwa's fins turned into claws and he leg-dropped slashed.
We strive for providence.
A! L! P! H! A!
B! L! A! S! T!
F! E! V! E! R!
Don't stop, build it up.
The two clashed midair as both sides pushed back... and the shockwaves were pushing the others back!
HATRED IMPACT!
ALPHA BLAST! FEVER!
We are the energy!
The explosion of blue and purple energies spewed around, sending Naki and Horobi away, with the original scorpion losing his Attache Weapon.
Don't stop, show your style
"Argh! Not bad... but you've seen my finisher already." Fuwa grunted as he got to his feet.
"Fuwa, the Key has three finishers, push the button to switch between them!" Yaiba called out.
"You couldn't have told him that earlier?" Jin asked.
"We were in a rush!" Yua answered.
"Thanks!" He called back.
Don't stop, build it up
ALPHA! BETA! BULLET!
The eye of the Progrise Key flashed twice as it was powered up, having its second selection being used. Fuwa pulled off the Driver and aimed it right at Ark Scorpion, blue and silver energy swirling into the muzzle of the gun as he fired. "HA!"
It's electricity
B! E! T! A! B! U! L! L! E! T! B! L! A! S! T!
Don't stop keep it wild!
Shooting forth was a twin-coloured energy bullet, as it fired the sounds of wolves could be heard.
Ark Scorpion's eyes widened as he summoned his stingers and defended himself, no matter *what* he would defend himself and block this attack. His mission would not fail here in the past!
The stingers formed a rudimentary shield, with the stingers forming the centre to keep the bullet from penetrating it.
BETA BULLET! BLAST!
Three times the power and three times the pain
The sparks of blue and silver energy rippled through the shield as it shattered and flung the metals around, hitting Jin and Yua, and sending them to the ground.
"ARGH!" Jin screamed as he was grounded.
"Fuwa, watch it!" Yua snapped at him.
Don't stop, show your style.
ALPHA! BETA! DELTA! BULLET!
"I cannot be stopped." Ark Scorpion glared, still standing.
"And I won't stop!" Fuwa glared. He slammed the ShotRiser into the slot around his waist and pulled the trigger, his visor eyes and the circuitry began to glow, almost turning into the outline of a wolf.
Tear down the towers and fire up the flames.
D! E! L! T! A! B! U! L! L! E! T! B! L! A! S! T! F! E! V! E! R!
Fuwa's feet dug into the ground as he raced forward, his systems burning white hot and leaving a sonic boom behind him, making Naki fly back as they tried to hold back Fuwa.
"ISAMU!" Naki screamed as they were flung back, trying to dig their claws into the ground.
"HRAAAAAA! HAAAA!" Fuwa roared as he leapt into the air and rocketed down, forming a cone of blue, red and silver energy which gave the outline of a three-headed wolf.
Don't stop, keep it wild.
Ark Scorpion crossed his arms and braced for impact, having Fuwa Rider Kick him square in the chest and cause a massive explosion, sending the Priest flying out of his transformation and rolling onto the ground.
DELTA BULLET! BLAST! FEVER!
Fuwa landed on his feet, the area scorched with the explosion and Fuwa's body calming down from the intense light it was giving off.
"ARGH ARGH!" The Priest grunted in pain, he was knocked out of his transformation and was exposed.
"Yua." Naki groaned.
"Yeah?" She responded.
"Holy shit, that form's strong." Naki answered.
"Hehe... thanks." Yua took that as a mark of pride.
"But next time. Think about the surrounding area." Naki remarked.
"Noted." Yua groaned.
The Priest grunted as he tried to get his feet. "D-Damn it."
"This. Ends. Here." Fuwa glared as he was about to push his Key's button. "One... more." he said, the Key flashing...
Z-zap.
"Huh?" He looked down and heard the Key sparking.
Z-ZAP.
"Err..." Fuwa gulped.
Z-Z-ZAP!
BOOM!
SHATTER!
"GYAH!" Fuwa yelled as the Key itself exploded out of his ShotRiser and was scattered into pieces.
Fuwa stood there, screaming in pain for several seconds as blue lightning covered every inch of his body. Agony filled his eyes as his screams filled the heavens...
Before he fell to the ground, unable to move.
"Fuwa!" Naki called out, seeing him lying flat on his back.
The Priest looked at this, before smirking as he was able to get to his feet. "Fortune favours the bold." He muttered to himself and grabbed the Attache Arrow that was near him.
Standing tall, he almost slammed his ArkScorpion key into it.
Progrise Key Confirmed! Ready to Utilize ARK SCORPION'S Ability!
"This... ends now..." The Priest snarled as he walked towards Fuwa "But you... were a worthy opponent!"
Fuwa was looking at the 'barrel' of the Attache Arrow, seeing the purple energy gathering into the weapon.
Was this how he was going to die? 'Naki. I'm-.' He thought thinking for his final words.
VRRR!
"Huh?" The Priest asked as he heard the sounds of a motorbike and was tackled by Eve! "ARGH!"
SCREECH!
"Get away from him, you monster!" She called out as she glared at the Priest.
The Attache Arrow fell away from his grip, but the Ark Scorpio Key was nowhere inside.
"Fuwa, are you okay?" Eve ran to Fuwa, trying to help him up.
"I'll be fine." He grunted.
The Priest was chuckling as he lay on the floor, imperceptible to most of the group as he was covering his stomach and chest.
"Why're you laughing?" Yua glared.
"Your timing. Couldn't have been more. Fortuitous." As he pulled himself up and revealed Eve's Zero-One Driver. "Thank you, Ms Hiden."
"When did you-?" Eve asked in shock as she realised that she had lost her means to fight.
The group's eyes widened in fear, seeing the Driver in his hand. "Y-You bastard." Jin grunted.
"With this, Lord Ark will return. And the Future will be set." He answered, hobbling away.
"With what? That Key won't work with an uncorrupted Driver!" Eve glared as she stood up.
The Priest smiled as he pulled out the Key and pushed it. As his thumb pressed the button, black and red lighting sparked around him. Covering the Zero One Driver on the Priest's belt and moving up, coating the Ark Scorpion Key. The casing slowly fell away like flecks of dust, leaving a mass of black and red wires that quickly began to reshape and reform into a new shape.
And then he tapped the button once again.
H̶̢̿E̶͖̋L̷̛̩L̴͖̎R̸̥͂Ǐ̸̤S̴͇̚E̵̱̋!̸͍͒
The glitched sound of the Key sent chills down the spines and the systems of the HumaGears. It sounded like Ark's pure malice and Will deep within the systems.
ZERO-ONE DRIVER!
The Priest attached Eve's Driver around his waist and glared at her with a malicious smile.
AUTHORISE!
Coming from the Driver was a malicious dark metal grasshopper with burning red eyes, oozing with black ichor as it croaked out in pain and agony.
"H̶͈͐e̶͖̿ǹ̷͍s̵͇̓h̸̳̒ĩ̸͜n̴̙͊.̶̻͊"
As he slotted the Key into the Driver as it glowed with poisonous mist the hopper leapt into the air as red and black electricity coursed through the Priest's body.

The hopper leapt into the priest as he screamed in pain as much as joy, as a cybernetic wireframe formed over his body as it transformed him.

A new form had taken place. A horrific monster of red and black armour.
His eyes flashing as pure malice flowed out like a wave of evil incarnate.

And a dark, evil, laugh echoed out from behind his mask...
To Be Continued...
