After many hours of work, Kyoshiro finally returned to his room tired. Not even surprising him, he saw Yukina disassembling one of his pairs of prosthesis. The girl was ready to be scolded by Kyoshiro, but he slumped on his bed.

"Are you okay?" Yukina asked worried.

"Tired, I haven't had this much work since my surgical residency. They had so many injured, I thought I was going to die." Kyoshiro said, "All I want to do is sleep."

"Before you sleep can you answer this question?" Asked Yukina.

"Hurry up and say it then." Said Kyoshiro.

"I took your arms apart and I couldn't find anything to indicate a nerve connection. All I can find are wires that are installed like a nervous system. How does it work then?" Yukina asked curiously.

"My cybernetic implants allow this connection, they send an electrical signal like the nerves do, so I just need these wires to move, the more the number is important in the prosthesis, the more I have control over the member. That said, this "nervous" system is not mandatory for my implants, it's only useful for the level of control I can have over it. Explained Kyoshiro, "Now get out of here, I want to nap!"

"I'll steal some tools from you first." Said Yukina.

Kyoshiro started to launch pillows at Yukina. "Get out I said!" The young mechanic stole something quickly before leaving like a goblin. "Idiot..." Kyoshiro blushed a little before falling asleep.


Dan was in his office drinking a glass of whiskey and unlike his brother who was covered in bandages, he was wearing very little. He still remembered the fight, for most of the duel he had the complete advantage over his older brother before letting his guard down. Dan was still pensive as a man entered. The man had long blond hair in a ponytail and black eyes, he had the beginnings of a beard and a pair of sunglasses in his hair. He was wearing a thick gray jacket with blue stripes, heavy cargo pants and a thick pair of boots.

"Yo! Old man!" Called the man which gained Dan's attention. "Your secretary told me you wanted to see me."

"Sit down, Jack." Dan poured a second glass of whiskey as Jack sat down.

Jack took a deep drink before saying. "What actually happened to you? You got hit by a car!" Jack chuckled while his father still had his cold expression.

"No, Kyoshiro did that. Dan replied.

"Well, fuck, he didn't miss." Jack watched Dan's wounds. "I haven't seen you in such a bad state since your fight with Kuuga."

"I know, I remember that fight well." Dan rolled up his left sleeve to observe a rune-shaped scar.

"So what did you want to see me about, old man?" Jack asked.

"I need you to watch Kyoshiro." Dan ordered.

"Wait, is he still alive? I thought you would have killed him." Said Jack.

"Well, let's just say he surprised us both. Said Dan. "He used something that wasn't in the data we had of him, something called Overburst."

"Overburst? Never heard that one before, but it sounds like fun." Jack finished his drink and said. "I'm going to do that right now."

"Just be careful and in case take Yosuke Kurogawa with you. He just got his new implants and should be as strong as Kyoshiro." Said Dan.

"Whatever you say, old man!" Jack chuckled as he walked away.

"What a strange person sometimes." Said Dan as he poured himself a glass of whiskey.


After several hours of sleep, Kyoshiro returned to the resistance bunker. With much fatigue he was about to open the infirmary when Jay arrived.

"You can't give me like five minutes to open, literally I've never worked as hard as I have in my two years in residence." Said Kyoshiro exasperated.

"That's not why I'm here, old man." Says Jay. "Kourin wants to talk to you, I'm just passing on the message."

"You're her dog I see." At these words, Jay placed the tip of his sword to Kyoshiro's throat.

"Take back what you just said." Jay threatened.

"What, we can't see the truth in the face?" Kyoshiro took the blade in his hand and began to press it. "It's going to take more than that to scare me." The doctor broke the sword in half and was about to strike Jay with the flat of the blade in his hand, but the soldier used the handle of his weapon to strike Kyoshiro in the face with it. The doctor recoiled from the attack as his nose bled profusely. "Well then we hide from the good doctor that we are also a cyborg?" Kyoshiro asked as he wiped his nose.

Jay gritted his teeth before putting his weapon away. "Just go see Kourin!" Jay ordered.

"Don't forget half your toothpick!" Kyoshiro threw the rest of the sword to Jay who caught it without any trouble. "Next time be more careful, I could have killed you." Kyoshiro walked away laughing.

Jay was completely confused by these words before he noticed that his left arm was dislocated, he was surprised and annoyed by this and Kyoshiro's strength. "Bastard..." Jay whispered annoyed.

When Kyoshiro arrived in Kourin's office, he saw her overwhelmed by piles of papers. She was completely overwhelmed by the ton of paperwork she had to fill out.

"Are you okay kid?" Kyoshiro asked, gaining Kourin's attention.

"Yeah, you could say that..." Kourin said as she had huge dark circles around her eyes. "But that's great, Jay told you that I had to see you."

"I got your message, but why do you want to see me?" He questioned.

"Sit down first." Kourin offered which Kyoshiro did. "According to Yukina, you would have helped Phoenix during their beginning, is it true?"

"So this is an interrogation, good to know." Said Kyoshiro.

"No, no, no it's not that, I'm just asking you some questions." Answered Kourin.

"Call it what you want, it's an interrogation, but to answer your question, I didn't help in the beginning. I founded Phoenix with my brother and some friends." Kyoshiro said, "I'm even the one who created the prostheses and implants they use."

"So you know the Leader and his generals well?" Kourin asked.

"Yeah... even much too well..." Kyoshiro replied in a cold tone.

"So you know what kind of implant they have?" Kourin took a very serious look and tone.

"Yeah, I'm the one who did all their operations except for Dan's. If I had thought about it, the fact that they want cybernetic implants should have tipped me off." Said Kyoshiro.

"Could you tell me what kind of implant they have?" Kourin asked.

"... No." Answered Kyoshiro which surprised the resistance leader.

"Why?" Kourin questioned.

"It would be less fun for you, it's more fun to find out for yourself. Kyoshiro stood up and prepared to leave. "I have no reason to tell you all I have to do is treat your wounded and I'll have my information."

"But I can keep the information." Said Kourin.

"Oh really?" Kyoshiro's displeasure could be seen on his face. "And I could stop doing my job and hunt them like I used to, it would be just as effective for me.

"And we could find other doctors we could blackmail." Said Kourin.

"How are you going to deal with the ones who have lost limbs and the medicine?" Kyoshiro asked. "I'm the only one who has the blueprints for every type of prosthesis and drug formula in mind.

"We will steal what we need from Phoenix." Kourin replied. "We can do all this without you, I only offered you this deal because you want to destroy Phoenix as much as we do."

*Crack*

Kyoshiro's arm passed through Kourin's desk as if it was nothing, but this didn't surprise her at all, she remained impassive. The attitude of the resistance leader enraged Kyoshiro, how dare she talk to him like that.

"Damn it! You'll have information on them when I have information on where they are! Said Kyoshiro.

"That's another deal, Kamen Rider Reverse." Said Kourin arrogantly.

"Shut up!" Kyoshiro left annoyed.


In a Phoenix hospital, Yosuke woke up after his multiple operations and got up from his bed. With all these new implants, he felt stronger, lighter and more resistant as if he had a completely new body. Yosuke started to get used to all these changes by stretching a little, while he was doing that, Jack entered violently kicking the door which surprised Yosuke.

"Yo! Little kitty!" Said Jack.

"General Jack!" Said Yosuke surprised before saluting his superior. "What are you doing here?"

"The old man asked me to take you with me on a mission!" Jack sat down on the hospital bed.

"Are you sure? I just woke up and I don't know my new implants completely." Said Yosuke.

"Don't worry, buddy. It's always better to learn on the job!" Jack pulled out a flask and took a drink. "By the way stop with the salute, you've known me for a long time."

Yosuke relaxed a little. "Sorry, I thought there was Dan and the others with you." He said embarrassed.

"It's just you and me on this mission like old times! We're going on a very special stakeout!" Jack chuckled.

"What are we gonna look for?" Yosuke asked.

"My uncle and creator of cyborgs! Kyoshiro Komogawa!" These words surprised Yosuke. "And I know he beat you, so you must have quite a grudge against him!" Jack laughed.

"You don't know how much!" Yosuke growled, he was still pissed off about losing to Kyoshiro.

"Sorry for you but I want to fight him, it's been 40 years since I've seen him and I want to have a target strong enough to have fun." Said Jack.

"Dan did not want you to watch it?" Questioned Yosuke.

"He said watch, he didn't say to watch him from a distance and he didn't say not to fight him." Said Jack.

"You really like upsetting your old man." Said Yosuke.

"You know it as well as I do." Laughs Jack.


In the resistance's infirmary, Kyoshiro had just finished an operation and all he could think of were the words Kourin had said to him. How dare she talk to him like that? He was the one with what she wanted, he was the one who healed her wounded, he was the one with the skills and this kid was trying to control him!

Kyoshiro was so pissed off that he kicked his office chair. "Fuck this whore!" The chair hit one of the beds which woke up Yukina who had fallen asleep.

"What's going on?!" Yukina asked in surprise.

Kyoshiro was surprised to see Yukina here, he had locked the infirmary before leaving "How long have you been here?"

"I waited for you for an hour then I took a nap so I don't really know." Yukina replied innocently.

"How did you get in here?!" Kyoshiro questioned.

"Through the air vents! Yukina replied childishly.

" ... you know what? I'm too pissed off at Kourin to yell at you." Said Kyoshiro exasperated.

"Are you okay?" Yukina asked.

"No! Kourin is pissing me off!" Answered Kyoshiro.

"What did she do?" Questioned Yukina curiously.

"She's keeping info on where Koto, Shiryu and Jack are!" Said Kyoshiro.

Yukina thought for a second before asking. "What if we hang out?"

"Why would I want to hang out with a kid like you?" Kyoshiro replied.

"I don't know! But when I get stuck on something it helps me to get out a little!" Answered Yukina full of kindness.

Kyoshiro hid his face a little with his hand, the answer of the girl made him blush and he could not let her see him in such a state. "I finished all my operations today and I have nothing better to do..."

"That's a yes! Let's go now!" Yukina pulled Kyoshiro from the infirmary by the arm which surprised the cyborg.


Yukina and Kyoshiro were in the middle of the city, the duo went from store to store observing the products that the different stores offered. Surprising the cyborg a lot, he managed to find it amusing and even managed to forget about Kourin completely. The duo came out of an electronics store where Yukina had two huge bags in hand, happy with their purchases.

"You were right, going out did relax me.' Said Kyoshiro with a sincere smile.

"I'm always right." Yukina giggled.

"I feel completely refreshed as if I had slept for a whole day." Said Kyoshiro.

"Hey Kyoshiro, I've been wondering this for a while, but how old are you?" Asked Yukina.

"Why do you want to know that all of a sudden?" Retorted Kyoshiro.

"I'm just curious, that's all." Replied Yukina with a big smile.

"If you want to know everything, I am 84 years old." Said Kyoshiro completely surprising Yukina.

"Seriously?!" Yukina asked dumbfounded.

"What year is it?" Kyoshiro asked.

" 2021. " Yukina replied.

"And I was born in 1937." Said Kyoshiro calmly before Yukina pulled his cheek. "What are you doing?"

"I'm trying to see if you have any wrinkles." Replied Yukina before stopping. "You weren't kidding when you said they injected you with an anti-aging serum."

"Why would I laugh at something like that?" Kyoshiro questioned.

"It's still incredible this kind of thing so you never know." Said Yukina.

"And yet here I am." Said Kyoshiro calmly.

Not far from them on top of a roof, Jack and Yosuke were watching the duo. Actually Yosuke was the only one who was watching the duo, Jack was lying bored as hell.

"What's he doing here?" Jack asked.

"He continues to talk with the girl." Yosuke replied. "Come watch them with me instead of asking."

"No, it's boring." Jack stood up and started walking in circles, "Can't I fight him?"

"No, it's my ass that's going to in trouble if you do that. I remind you that I don't have the same rank as you." Said Yosuke.

"I'm so bored!" Said Jack in a childish way.

"I still can't believe we're the same age and you act like a child." Yosuke looked at Jack with an exasperated look.

"That's why you adore me." Jack said with a snide look.

"I tolerate you, it's different." Said Yosuke as he resumed his observation.

As Jack walked around in circles, he began to think about what he could do, he went from idea to idea until he came up with what he thought was the best idea he ever had.

"Dan did say he wanted us to observe Kyoshiro, didn't he?" Jack questioned.

"Yeah... what are you planning?" Yosuke retorted worriedly.

"Might as well fight him to observe him fight!" Before Yosuke could even stop him, Jack had already jumped off the roof.

"But what an idiot!" Said Yosuke exasperated. "What an idiot, but what an idiot!" Yosuke rummaged in a bag and took out a camera to record what was about to happen.


Suddenly, while Kyoshiro and Yukina were talking, the gravity manipulator noticed that the pedestrians around them were running away in fear.

"Kyoshiro can you hear me?" Asked Yukina. "Is something wrong?"

"People, they are running... something bad is happening." Kyoshiro turned around and was both surprised and pleased at what he saw.

Yukina was also surprised but from Kyoshiro's reaction, she turned around and saw Jack walking towards them.

"Who is that guy?" Yukina whispered.

"That guy as you call him is the one who cut my right leg. That bastard is Jack!" Said Kyoshiro.

"Yo! How are you doing, uncle?" Jack asked nonchalantly.

"You were never my nephew." Said Kyoshiro in a cold tone.

"How cold you are, but so cold especially against your own family." Said Jack pretending to be hurt.

"My family died a long time ago, kid." Kyoshiro glared at Jack.

"I'm not so young anymore-" In an instant cutting Jack off in his sentence, Kyoshiro gave him a powerful headbutt. "Ah bastard! Not even polite enough to let me finish speaking!" Jack held his bleeding nose.

Kyoshiro was about to land another blow on Jack, but he backed away from the Phoenix general as he took Yukina in his arms.

"Oh hey why didn't you hit him you could have..." Yukina stopped talking and noticed a large crack where they were. "What's that?"

"Still as fast as ever, I see..." Jack wiped his nose as a belt appeared. The belt seemed to be greatly advanced technologically with a purple core, around the core were gray spikes. "I thought you would be slower after all this time."

"Listen to me, Yukina, you have to run as fast as you can to join the others." Kyoshiro whispered, "You understand me well, don't stay here, Jack is completely different than the other people I fought." Yukina didn't answer and nodded before leaving.

"I see you found a nice little piece of-" As quickly as he could Kyoshiro punched Jack in the face and his nose bled again. "Oh you really don't like it when I talk!" Jack gritted his teeth annoyed with Kyoshiro.

"I just don't like arrogant guys like you, that's all." Kyoshiro cracked his knuckles as the Reverse Driver appeared on him. "Now enough talk, get over here so we can fight!"

"You're way more impatient than I am!" Jack turned the heart on his belt as Kyoshiro turned the compass on his. "Henshin!" Said both men as shockwaves came out of their bodies.

As soon as the waves subsided, Kyoshiro had become Kamen Rider Reverse while Jack had a very different appearance from his uncle. He was wearing a completely black jumpsuit with silver trim, a pair of brown gloves and boots that looked worn out, an old gray pants with holes in the knees, a very long black raincoat and under the coat he wore a gray chest protector with white trim. His helmet had red eyes with a chaotic pattern and he also had a red bandana covered with soot and a big grey top hat.

"Kamen Rider Reverse... it's time to see the gravity of your actions." Said Reverse.

"Oh you got yourself a catchphrase? That's funny! I should do the same, let's see... " Jack thought for a bit before saying happily. "I know! Kamen Rider Ripper... let's start this dance of death!"

"Stop having fun, let's start." Said Reverse.

"Okay." With a flick of his finger, the lamp post next to Reverse fell, it looked like it had been cut in half.

"You really like what I gave you?" Reverse asked.

"Of course I like it! I can manipulate the pressure of anything I touch! Anything in my hands, even air, becomes a blade as sharp as a razor and as fast as a rifle bullet!" Ripper laughed like a child as the rain began to fall around them. "Oh luck is truly with me." Ripper lifted part of his coat to reveal a multitude of knives of different sizes and shapes. "Thanks to you, I learned a lot about air pressure in general, like this little fact. The less pressure there is, the more speed an object gains." He grabbed the knife by the blade and threw it at Reverse at such speed that it pierced his shoulder before he could even have time to dodge it. "Bull's Eyes!"

Reverse didn't even react to the blade that had just pierced him and withdrew it without any problem. "You have a short memory, I lost my limbs to you." The gravity manipulator threw the blade at Ripper's foot.

"It's been 40 years so excuse me for forgetting that." Ripper took several knives in his hands. "But now I know where to aim! Ripper threw each of the knives he had in his hands at Reverse, who ran and dodged the blades.

The cyborg fought with all their strength, Ripper juggled each of the blades he had and launched them at his opponent while Reverse hit the blades he could counter with his fists. Each of the blows that hit the blades broke in contact with Reverse's fists creating powerful sparks. After a while, Reverse grabbed one of the blades and stopped completely.

"What? You don't feel like fighting anymore?!" Ripper was about to throw another knife, but he noticed that he didn't have any knives left in his coat.

"No, I just counted everything you just threw himself in my face. Reverse replied.

Reverse turned his compass needle north and green electricity shot from his driver to his arms. In an instant he covered the distance between him and Ripper and prepared his shot before saying. "Asteroid Rush !" Reverse threw a series of blows, each heavier than the last. Ripper tried to dodge most of them but inevitably some of the blows hit him head on and Ripper was completely surprised at the strength of the blows he received.

"What the hell is this?! How did he get so strong!" Ripper thought before remembering something. Surprising Reverse, his opponent lowered his guard completely, so he stopped his blows. "Well then, you doesn't want to attack me anymore?" Ripper questioned.

"You're up to something, I don't like it... " Reverse replied.

"Let's see, I don't have a weapon anymore, how can I attack you? Ripper lowered his guard mocking his enemy.

Annoyed by this, Reverse ran towards Ripper ready to attack him, when suddenly ...

*Slash*

His hands fell to the ground with a thud. Reverse was surprised to see that Ripper's hands were covered with water forming claws.

"I totally forgot I could do that!" Ripper laughed. "This is so useful! Using the rain and putting enough pressure on it to make me super sharp claws!"

Reverse didn't even give Ripper a chance to admire what he could do as he hit him in the stomach with a kick which knocked him down. The Phoenix cyborg tried to get up but even with all his strength he couldn't move an inch.

"What did you do to me?!" Ripper asked in surprise.

"I'm subjecting you to 10 times the gravity of the earth. You won't move for a long time." Reverse began to walk away from Ripper.

"You're not going to finish me off? I thought after 50 years you'd want revenge for what we did to you! Ripper sneered.

The Gravity Manipulator stopped, went to his opponent and crushed his face with his foot. "I just have to put a little more force into it and I could finish you off." He started to press Ripper's head against the ground, but stopped which surprised the cyborg on the ground. "But no, that would be too easy. I have something special planned for each of you. Half a century I've been waiting to kill you ... I can wait a few more days." Reverse walked away leaving his opponent alone as the rain fell on him.


In Kyoshiro's room, Yukina was playing with the tools the Cyborg had to disassemble and learn more about the mechanical limbs he used. She was having so much fun that she was surprised to hear the door handle move as if someone was trying to get in. Yukina opened the door to see that Kyoshiro had tried to open the door with his stumps.

"What the hell are you doing here, did I tell you to go see the others?" Kyoshiro questioned.

Yukina thought for a bit before answering with a silly giggle "I completely forgot what you told me in the middle of the road so I came here!"

"If I still had hands, I would have strangled you.' Kyoshiro entered and pulled with his feet a pair of arms that were on the ground. "Can you help me?" Asked Kyoshiro.

The two mechanics sat on the bed, Yukina with a big smile helped Kyoshiro to put the pair of arms. The cyborg couldn't help but blush when he saw the innocent look and smile of Yukina happy to help her friend.

"Why are you hanging out with an old man like me?" Kyoshiro questioned.

"Huh?" Yukina was confused by the question. "Why do you ask that?" Retorted the mechanic.

"I don't know, you spend your time going through my stuff or asking me questions when I'm being an asshole to you, it's weird." Said Kyoshiro.

Surprised by Kyoshiro's answer, Yukina smiled before saying. "As I told Kourin the first time I saw you, I think you're cute and I like spending time with you! At least I'm learning more than I did with grandpa." Kyoshiro blushed at Yukina's answer that did not go unnoticed by the mechanic. "And I like when you talk to me, it reminds me of someone I used to know!"

"You idiot..." Kyoshiro whispered embarrassed.

Yukina continued to have a big smile as she began to bombard Kyoshiro with questions which the cyborg happily answered.
