Canterlot Royal Hospital

Sunburst, even as he helped the good doctors and nurses of the Royal Hospital rush Galaxy into the hospital on a gurney, (Absentmindedly, he wondered why everything in Canterlot had to have Royal in the name? Princess narcissism perhaps?) his thoughts raced. Once again, he’d gotten his fiance in a heaping mess of trouble, and just like last time, Galaxy needed a Hell of a lot of luck to make it out of this one.

Sunburst had nearly been sick looking at Galaxy once his armor had been removed. He knew it had to be bad, as his torso plating had nearly been crushed, and in some parts smashed wide open. But once he saw the real extent of the damage, numerous gunshot wounds, Sunburst had grown truly terrified for Galaxy’s safety.

”Come on, come on!” Sunburst said to Galaxy, holding his hand. “You’ve been in much worse scrapes than this, you said so yourself! You survived the friggin’ Badlands, so a gunner won’t kill you!”

Inwardly, Sunburst didn’t even know if he himself believed that.

A nurse eventually came up to him.

“I’m sorry, but you’ll have to go now. We need privacy to work,” she said to him softly

“But he’s my fiance, Mystic Mother dammit! I should be by his side!” Sunburst argued, his voice reaching such a height that others began to stare at him. Sunburst, for once, didn’t give a damn if all eyes were on him. “I put him in this situation, so I should at least be by his side during this entire process!”

“I’m sorry, but it’s in the hospital’s rules. Unless you’re a trained medical practitioner, you can’t be in the operating room,” she told him calmly.

“La dracu, târfă!” Sunburst swore at her in Romanian, (Something Galaxy had begun to teach him lately) dropping all pretenses of politeness, just for a second in his anger, fury, and self-disgust. He was just lucky that the nurse didn’t understand a word of it, even if she probably got the general gist of what he said.

Sunburst then punched a wall, cracking it slightly.

“I’m sorry, I truly am,” the nurse continued. “But I’ll have to ask you to leave.”

Sunburst muttered something under his breath, but sighed. He knew in his head -Even if he didn’t like it- the nurse was right. They needed a calm environment in which to work, and his anger wasn’t helping matters any.

“A-Alright…” Sunburst whispered, a small tear slipping from his eyes. “I’ll go. Just… Just save him, alright?” he asked.

“I promise, we’ll do the best we can,” the nurse replied, before handing Sunburst Galaxy’s Dino Morpher, Dino Comm and Chargers. “These were on him when the Royal Guard found him, suppose you’d best keep an eye or two on them for the time being.

“Y-Yeah, probably best,” Sunburst muttered as he watched Galaxy get wheeled into an operating room. “I’ll… I’ll just leave you be, and let you get to work in the meantime…”

One of Sunburst’s fists clenched as he thought to himself: “I swear, I’ll find who did this… I promise you that. He’s going to pay dearly…”

The rational part of his mind was telling him anger and revenge wouldn’t solve anything, but right now Sunburst wasn’t particularly interested in listening to it. He pulled out the card from before, studying it again and thinking back…

The man and the puppet shared a look.

“You hear that? He thinks you’re an act!” the man said to his puppet, both looking quite offended.

“Shame on him!” the puppet replied back before glaring back at Navi and Sunburst wagging a finger.

“...You’ve gotta be kidding me.” Navi muttered, doing the robotic parrot equivalent to a facepalm.

“Who are you anyways?” Sunburst inquired.

“Name’s Narutaki. Friend to all Henshin Heroes,” the now named Narutaki said, handing Sunburst a black and purple card. “Here, you’re going to need this. It’ll come in handy, believe you me…”

With that, he walked down the halls and into a door leading to another carriage. Sunburst and Navi shared a look, before chasing after him. But when they entered the next car, Narutaki had vanished, seemingly into thin air as quickly as he’d come.

“What the hell…?” Sunburst trailed off, scratching his head in bewilderment before looking at the card. “Come in handy soon? What does he mean by that?” he thought to himself.

Suddenly, he heard the distinct crackling sound of the Rangers’ teleportation system and saw four columns of light landing outside a hospital window.

He rushed outside, Dino Morpher strapped to his waist to greet his fellow Rangers.

“Heard something happened here, but couldn’t get the full details from anyone...” Sunset said as she walked up, wearing a long orange winter coat with a hood and white linings. Everyone else wore similar attire, ranging from Robert’s black and dark gray button-up vest, to Vapor’s usual brown fur long coat with white linings. Sunset then saw the look on Sunburst’s face and she let out a small “Oh...”

Pulling him into a hug, she asked: “What happened? Go on, it’s okay. You can tell us…”

To her surprise, Sunburst shoved her away. “What do you think happened? Galaxy got hurt, maybe even fatally, and I wasn’t here to stop it from happening all because of that damn Org Thrax sent us! Wouldn’t be surprised if the two events were connected, just to keep us away from Canterlot Castle for Mystic Mother’s sakes!” he snapped.

“I doubt that’s true…” Vapor mused to herself, a hand on her chin.

“Of course it’s true! Why wouldn’t it be!?!” Sunburst snapped, and Robert and Lightning actually flinched, and took a few steps back, never having seen this side of Sunburst before. They’d heard about it of course, but never seen it for themselves.

Vapor kept her calm. “I really don’t think Thrax would send an Org to distract us while he took out just one Ranger. I mean, think it about it, it’d be a waste of perfectly good resources. Why just one Ranger, when he could distract Galaxy, and take us out?”

“Not… helping…” Sunburst said through gritted teeth.

“I’m just saying, I’m trying to be logical here. It’s not really a good use of your resources to send one Org to distract all of us, and then send someone else -Goldar maybe- to deal with one Ranger, even one close to a member of the team. Actually, taking out Shining would be more practical, given he’s the Prince of the Crystal Empire and all.”

“Vapor’s right,” Sunset agreed. “Something larger’s at play here, and besides, we don’t even have proof Thrax was behind any of this.”

Suddenly, Sunburst remembered something, and muttered to himself quietly what the guard had told him earlier. “Break-in at Canterlot Castle itself, someone looking exactly like Prince Blueblood managed to steal something right out from Luna and Celestia’s noses…” he repeated, catching Sunset’s ears.

“Wait, did you say a Blueblood Imposter?”

“Yeah, that’s what one of Galaxy’s troops told me at least.”

“Knew it,” Vapor smiled, as she snapped her fingers. “Knew it wasn’t an Org!” she exclaimed, pleased at being right, before Lightning smacked her around the back of the head.

“Sensitivity, please?” she asked, while thinking. “And usually I’m the insensitive one… Sheesh, Silver must be getting to me, or maybe it’s Sunset’s miss goody two hoovesness rubbin’ off on me. I don’t know, and I don’t really care honestly…”

Vapor sucked in a breath, and let out a little hiss remembering what had just happened. “Ooh, right… Sorry, Sunny.” she said.

“Hey, what’s this?” Robert asked, taking out the card from Sunburst’s grasp and reading it. “Kamen Rider Decade? Didn’t know you collected Kamen Rider trading cards. No accounting for taste though, I honestly prefer Gaim and Drive…”

“What’s Kamen Rider mean anyways? I’m not an expert on Neighponiese…” Sunburst admitted with a flush, rubbing the back of his head.

“Well, it’s an old franchise, dating back to the seventies starting with the original TV show starring Hiroshi Fujioka playing Kamen Rider Ichigō as he’s called nowadays. Kamen means Masked, in Japanese. And the Rider part comes from the fact that they often drove high-powered motorbikes. Remember the Megaforce Rangers I told you about once?”

“Yeah… vaguely…” Sunburst murmured, not really caring -Like most of the team- for Robert’s Ranger history lessons.

“Well, Decade had a similar power, being able to turn into any past Rider he wished with little cards like that one. Went from universe to universe, fixing any issues in them he came across, and setting things right battling the forces of Dai-Shocker, a group of past villains who’d banded together.” Robert explained.

“Yeah…” Sunburst replied. “Here’s the thing, I’m not so sure this is just a trading card as you put it. Some sort of strange human with a hand puppet gave it to me, called himself Narutaki…” he trailed off in thought.

At that, Robert fell backwards into a dead faint.

“...What’d I say?” Sunburst asked before going for the card and looking at it more carefully, and as he lit up his horn, there seemed to be some sort of magic in it, like an encoded message. Muttering a spell under his breath, a holographic figure appeared above the card. This was Decade, Sunburst presumed.

“Okay, now how do I get you to play your message…?” Sunburst wondered aloud.

“I am the passing through Kamen Rider. If you ever need a helping hand, just hold this card up, and call for Decade.” a male voice said in Sunburst’s mind. Steeling himself, and taking a leap of faith, he held up the card.

“Okay, maybe now we’ll be getting some answers as to what’s going on here…” Sunburst muttered before shouting “DECADE!”

Decade’s World:

Wyatt couldn’t recall the last time he had experienced such a peaceful day. Lately, it felt like he had to experience at least one explosion a day. And if it wasn’t monsters then it was the antics of the girls or the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

However, none of that mattered at the moment. Applejack had invited Twilight, Spike and him out to a picnic with her family and he was going to enjoy it to the fullest.

“Hey, Spike! You got the potato salad, ya?” Wyatt called into the kitchen. Despite the assurance from AJ that they didn’t need to bring anything, the trio had decided to bring a few things anyway. Like homemade salsa that he had elected to make himself.

“Yeah! The potato salad’s almost done chilling!” Spike answered, the sound of clattering pans accompanying him. “Did you grab the blanket and the frisbee?”

“Yeah, I got it!” Wyatt patted the small bag at his side. “Can’t take a dog to a picnic without a frisbee!” Moving over to the stairs, he put his hand to his mouth. “Hey, Twi! You almost ready? We’re gonna be late for getting there early.”

“I’m ready~!” Twilight called back, walking to the top of the stairs. She had elected to wear a pink sundress that matched the streak in her mane and had her mane pulled into a bun. “Well, how do I look?” She asked, putting a hand to her hip and cocking it slightly.

“Like a million bucks.” Wyatt whistled, picking her a thumbs up. “Need me to do any last minute preening?” Giving her a cheeky grin, he wriggled his fingers in her direction. “I got the magic hands you know.”

With a roll of her eyes, Twilight walked down and batted him upside the head with one of the feathery appendages. “No thank you, my wings are in perfect condition.” Fluffing her wings, she levitated over her bag. “Just let me double check everything...”

“Didn’t you already double check it?” Spike strode out of the kitchen, a wrapped up bowl in his hands. “That your third or fourth check, Twi.” Smirking, he winked at Wyatt. “I can see it now, you all frizzy maned, quintuple checking a diaper bag for a simple day in the park.”

Twilight pouted for a moment before giggling. “And I can see Uncle Spike having to change some of those diapers,” she shot back, grabbing a checklist from her bag. “Okay... check... check...” Twilight blocked out the world, her eyes running over every line on the list.

After a minute or two, Wyatt decided to snap her out of it by lightly squeezing the base of her wing between his forefinger and thumb. “Alright!” he cheered. “Time for a picnic!”

“You mean in an hour,” Spike reminded, making his way to the door. “It’s time to wait for the picnic!” Opening the door, he nearly walked into Applejack. “Oh! Hey, AJ, here to tell help us wait for the picnic?”

“Figured y'all would be gettin’ ready early,” Applejack replied, looking back at Twilight with a smirk. “Ya know, Twi, it’s just a picnic. Ya don’t hafta get there all early like. Not like y’all are goin’ fishin’ or somethin’.”

“Is everyone going to make fun of me today?” Twilight pouted, looking between the others. “I mean really, can’t a mare like being prepared?”

“Relax, sugahcube.” Stepping inside, Applejack put her hands up. “Ah just thought Ah’d come and spend some extra time with ya. Ain’t nothin’ wrong with that, is there?”

“No, I’d like to spend more time with you.” Twilight sighed, giving Applejack a small smile. “Alright, boys, we have to get going if we’re going to get there on time.” Putting her list away, Twilight picked up her bag. “Lead the way AJ!”

With a good natured chuckle, Applejack stepped back outside, leading the three through town. Too busy wrapped up in conversation, they didn’t notice as the world started to warp around them.

Wild Access Universe:

The air around Sunburst began to shimmer, and warp as four figures began to appear in front of him. While they weren’t fully formed yet, a few features could be made out. One, an alicorn judging by the wings and the long horn protruding like a lance from the skull, another seemed to be draconic in nature with wings to boot. A third was a pony wearing a stetson (Could have been Applejack, but quite a few ponies in her clan wore cowcolt hats, like Braeburn for example) and the final was… different and decidedly non-pony or draconic in nature. It was the feet that tipped Sunburst off, whatever this figure was, he or she was a human.

Sunburst went for his morpher, just in case he’d accidentally summoned someone hostile to his world even though the rational part of his brain said, judging from the message, he’d probably summoned this Decade character. But stranger things had been known to happen, something could have gone wrong and he may have summoned someone else instead.

He glanced towards Sunset, and saw she was lighting up her horn as well, it glowing a greenish color. She was probably having the same thoughts as well.

“Yeah, Bloom keeps talkin’ about Hearthswarming with the Pie’s. Ah’m just glad she stopped ramblin’ on bout’ Fuji,” the leading figure spoke, solidifying into Applejack. “Ah reckon’ she might start up again when we go to the rock farm though.”

Sunset’s eyes widened. “Applejack?” she whispered, the new arrivals seemingly not noticing they’d traveled to a new universe entirely.

“Considering Maud, I can only imagine what the rest of the Pie family is like.” A taller version of Spike appeared next, wearing a pair of jeans and a black shirt. “I bet they all speak all stoic like.”

Slowly, Sunburst put his morpher away, getting the feeling he could trust these four, or at least the lookalikes of his friends. The human however, the jury was still out on that.

The final two figures solidified into Twilight, though she had eyes just like Spike, and a teenage human male. The human sported short brown hair, clad in a pink and black shirt and black pants.

“I don’t think we’re in Ponyville anymore...” Twilight spoke, glancing around. She dropped her bag, slipping a ring onto her left hand. “I think someone summoned Wyatt.”

Sunset coughed, alerting them to their presence. “Um, Twilight, that you? You look a little… different.” she commented delicately, noting the eyes and the fangs.

Twilight turned her gaze to Sunset, staring at her for a moment. “Alicorn Sunset. I wasn’t expecting to see that today.”

“And we didn’t fall out of the portal this time,” the young man spoke, rubbing the side of his head. “Gotta say, I like that more than the last couple worlds.”

By this point, ponies all around them were starting to stare and point, even whisper amongst themselves, some comments rather rude like “Human ape…” and the like. Sunset sighed, it seemed some things never changed.

The rude comments didn’t escape Twilight’s notice and her pupils seemed to contract for a split second. “If anypony has something to say about my boyfriend, please, don’t hold anything back,” she said in a calm tone, adjusting the ring on her finger.

Spike frowned, nudging her in the side. “Hey, aggression, remember?”

“Best you just ignore them, I’ve gotten used to them…” Sunset sighed to herself, a trace of sadness in it. “Know I shouldn’t, but… It’s a fact of life if you’re a human in this Equestria…” she murmured, before a thought struck her. “Wait, boyfriend? So, you actually got the courage to ask someone out?”

Sunset chuckled a little, remembering how it took months for her Twilight to even get asked out on a date by this world’s Flash Sentry. Often too nervous, and caught up in her books for her own good. She loved her like a sister, but the mare seriously needed to get out more.

“All it took was Somber almost corrupting Wyatt,” Spike explained, gesturing to the new human. “So...” he shifted, holding up his bowl. “Anyone want potato salad?”

At that, everyone face-faulted.

“Maybe they’re more salsa verde people?” the now identified Wyatt asked, holding up a container from his bag. “It’s homemade.”

After Sunburst had picked himself up off the ground, he stepped towards the four new arrivals to his universe. “So, which one of you’s Decade?”

“That’d be me,” Wyatt answered, returning the container to his bag and holding his hand out to Sunburst. “Wyatt Matthews, at your service.”

“Good, because right now my fiance is in the hospital, no thanks to a Blueblood Imposter’s work, and I’m pissed, and I want answers,” Sunburst growled out, surprising even himself as he rushed towards Wyatt, and held his Crystal Saber to his throat.

“Okay.” Wyatt peered down at the dagger, then up at Sunburst. “First off, that was Blueblood, just not the one you know. (Sunset muttered: “I probably could have told you that…” behind Sunburst) He calls himself Blud and he works for a group known as Dai-Shocker.”

Sunburst sighed, and removed the dagger from Wyatt’s neck, trying to process all this new information at once. “Wait, you’re telling me, besides Decade being a real thing, Dai-Shocker’s real as well?”

“Yeah, Dai-Shocker’s real,” Wyatt assured, rubbing at his neck. “Lead by a horrifying mix of Shining Armor and King Sombra; Somber Shield. They’re after a complete multiversal conquest.”

“Great, next thing you’re going to tell us,” Robert said in disbelief, having finally recovered, “Is that the rest of the Riders, all the way back to the very first are real as well, as well as the Badan army!” he drawled out. “I’m sorry, but this... Well, it’s rather highly unbelievable, and this is coming from a guy who has to fight monsters on an almost daily basis, and control a giant mecha that the creator of Naruto would probably be laughing his head off at!”

“It’s the basic multiverse theory,” PTKR Twilight responded, glancing at Robert. “Every possibility exists somewhere out there.”

“And for every action we make,” Sunburst added, this being his realm of study. “There’s an equal and opposite reaction. Butterfly effect, chaos theory, whatever you want to call it. Want me to demonstrate with a glass of water?” he drawled out, somewhat sarcastically.

“Mein Gott…” Robert muttered, as he sat down on a nearby bench, rubbing his head, Sunburst getting sarcastic being the last straw for him right now. “Nur so viel verrückter Scheiß kann ich an einem Tag machen…”

“All Ah wanted ta do today was have a simple picnic with friends and family,” Applejack sighed, putting her hand over her face. “Now we gotta deal with more of Dai-Shocker’s nonsense. Faust help me Ah if don't get my hands on Blud.”

“Well, I’m not Blud, but maybe I can substitute…” a familiar voice said, and everyone whirled around to see Goldar, backed by a legion of Kurokage Troopers, with some Tengas and Putrids thrown in for good measure. “Rangers, always a pleasure.”

“Wish I could say the same…” Sunset replied as she went for her morpher, the others doing the same.

“Welcome to my nightmare!” Goldar laughed.

“Sorry, we’ll pass on that…” Robert snarked. “It’s Morphin’ Time! Legendary Wild Access, hah!”

(Begin Morphing Sequences)
Sunset rocketed upwards into the sky flying through several spell seals in the process each time gaining a piece of her costume in the process before finally her helmet formed over her head with the screech of a bird before she rocketed downwards and landed on the ground with a mighty thud.

“Gold Ranger, ready!”

Standing on a rocky desert plateau as storm clouds rumbled and lightning flashed in the background, Lightning gained an aqua colored costume with the same diagonal tooth marks across her chest as Sunset’s. Her Cutie Mark of a yellow lightning bolt with stars appeared on her right breast. A helmet similar in design to Sunset's appeared on her head, with the sound similar to that of a falcon's call.

“Aqua Ranger, ready!”

On a beach, a tidal wave washed over Vapor Trail and she gained a purple costume similar in design to the others with her Cutie Mark of a comet on her left breast as well. The tooth marks on the opposite side of her chest appeared and a sperm whale themed helmet formed over her head with the noise of a deep sea beast's hum.

“Purple Ranger, ready!”

A flash of pure blue flames enveloped Robert as he stood in one of the red gate lined pathways that led up to Inari’s sacred shrine on Mt. Inari. He was given an orange form-fitting costume with tooth marks going diagonally across the left side of his chest and a golden fox’s head on his right breast. Then, a cape flamed into existence and a misty orange nine-tailed fox bit down on Robert’s head and formed his helmet.

“Orange Ranger, ready!”

In a dark barely moonlit orchard of apple trees, clouds of black smoke surrounded Sunburst and he gained a black costume with his Cutie Mark of an orange sun with bursting yellow rays on his left breast just like Vapor Trail's costume, and also like Vapor's the tooth marks appeared on the right side of his chest with a bat-themed helmet much like the Jungle Fury Bat Spirit Ranger's appearing around his head along with a loud bat screech sound.

“Black Ranger, ready!”
(End Morphing Sequences)

“Hade ni ikuze!” Robert shouted. In only a few seconds, the transformation sequence was all over. We’d just slowed down time long enough for you to see what happened.

“Is that a flying monkey?” Spike asked, placing the bowl on the ground. “Pretty tame by monster standards.”

“Listen to your elders kid,’ Robert commented. “Goldar… he never goes down without a fight.”

Taking out a blue and black rectangle he placed it against his waist. It flashed, conjuring up a belt. “Let’s go with... BuraKaWani.” Retrieving three coins from a case, he slotted them into the belt. Tilting the belt, he passed a circular object over it. “Henshin!”

“Cobra! Kame! Wani!” His belt shouted, several holographic coins appearing in front of him. The coins stacked on top of each other and wrapped around him. Spike glowed for a moment before his armor was revealed. An orange cobra was wrapped around his head and resembled a turban while the eyes were purple. The chest had a circular portion displaying stylized images of a cobra, turtle, and alligator. Both of his arms had large, orange gauntlets that resembled turtle shells. The legs appeared to be the most plain, orange armor running down the front of his legs with teeth designs around the hamstrings.

“OOO huh?” Goldar chuckled. “Interesting. Thrax did warn me that despite Somber’s musings, someone would try and interfere with his plans. Though I do admit I never expected a little drakeling wyrm like you to be the one to be stupid enough to try…”

“You say that now,” Spike replied, getting into a stance. “Why don’t you see for yourself, gilded chicken?”

“Cute, really cute.” Goldar chuckled, before raising his sword, and bringing down dark purple lightning bolts all around the group, causing them to scatter.

Spike ran to the front, bringing his arms together and creating an orange energy shield. “You won’t think I’m cute, trust me.”

He was forced to use this energy shield (As really, who’d stand there and let their foes transform?) when Goldar fired a large beam of energy from his griffon-themed torso plating. Spike slid backwards, ripping up the cobblestone streets a little, but the shield held.

“Save the trash talk for sparring,” Twilight admonished, flashing a ring in the shape of a hand on her left hand. With a quick motion, she tapped it to a matching belt buckle on her waist.

“Driver on, please!” her belt said, growing larger and silver. She flipped a switch on it, causing it to chant out, “Shabadoobie, touch to henshin~!” After a moment, she pressed another ring onto the belt buckle. “Flame, Dragon!” A red magic circle appeared behind her and a dragon made of flames came flying out. It flew around the battlefield for a moment, crashing into several Tengas before washing over Twilight. “Burn, burn, burn burn!” the belt shouted, the flames growing brighter.

“Always a problem I had with the later Drivers…” Robert muttered as he went blade to pike with a Kurokage Trooper, sparks flying as metal clashed. “Never knew when to shut up… Well, least it’s not the Ghost Driver...” Robert muttered, before he then kicked the Trooper backwards and sliced it across the chest with a chi infused Crystal Saber.

“Seriously, takes a bit too long to transform as well, I note…” Sunset commented as she leaped forwards and sliced a Putrid right down the middle, causing it to go up in a pyre of flame.

Lightning and Vapor tagged teamed some Kurokage Troopers, slicing through them with the Giraffe Cutter and the Levitation Trident respectively, before kicking them down into a nearby construction site. The Deer Clutcher fired, and Vapor swung from a crane arm and kicked another trooper in the face. Lightning meanwhile, pulled two pikes away from two other troopers, and with a smirk asked: “Missing something?”

Once the flames died down, Twilight was left standing in her own armor. Silver and red dominated the outfit, with silver brackets dividing the red crystal-like substance of her helmet into eye, forehead and mouth portions. On either side of her own horn were silver antlers made of the same materials as the brackets. Her shoulder armor was silver with circular red jewels at the center.

“I’m sorry, did you not want help fighting the monsters?” Slipping another ring onto her finger, she turned the hand on her belt to the opposite side. Using another ring, she created a free-floating spell circle. “Because we don’t have to if you don’t want to.” Reaching into the spell circle, she pulled out a sword.

Goldar laughed as he went blade to blade with Twilight. “Oh, infighting amongst the team… Classic.” he chuckled, as an eye appeared above him, and fired bolts of energy at each and every member of the heroes hitting dead on target no matter where they were. Twilight staggered back from the shot, before Goldar sliced her across the chest several times with a flurry of his blade.

Nearby, Sunburst had pulled out the Navi Blaster, and was ducking behind a corner as Putrids fired their bazookas at him, before with a few quick shots, he took care of them and then went for his Bison Axe, tossing it and impaling another Putrid in the head. Grimacing at the blood on his axe, his sighed and switched it back to his Crystal Saber. He then pulled out Galaxy’s Dino Morpher, and fired it at several Tengas, Squash Charger inside the Morpher, increasing the gravity around the Tengas, before they sunk deep into the earth.

“Okay, that stung,” Spike grumbled, shaking himself off. “Hey, Turkey! Heads up!” Rushing forward, Spike delivered a spin kick to Goldar’s side. An orange crocodile head appeared around his leg, chomping down on the monster before disappearing. Spike alternated legs, each strike resulting in another chomp. Goldar staggered back, before he unleashed another blast from his torso plate, and this time Spike didn’t have time to block it and was sent flying back.

He smacked into a wall, (With Lightning using the Kurokage Trooper’s own pikes against them nearby) leaving an imprint. “Okay, that’s getting annoying.” Rising back to his feet, any wounds Goldar had inflicted were already closing up.

Suddenly, a hoard of kunai struck Goldar as AJ, now in Ichigo Arms, (“Swooshing Spark!” her Sengoku Driver had called.) used her Kunai Burst Attack.

“Hey, AJ,” Sunset teased as she sliced apart some Tenga warriors. “I thought you hated strawberries!”

“Does it matter?” Applejack asked, stabbing a Tenga with a kunai. “Aint’t like Ah’m eatin’ it.”

“Wyatt, join the fun!” Robert called as he fired several blasts into some Kurokage Troopers with his Kitsune Blaster, before running towards Goldar, and inserting his Crystal Saber into a special slot on the gun. “Wrapping things up won’t be complete unless Decade gets in on things!”

Wyatt summoned up his driver, attaching it to his waist. “How can I say no to that?” Calling forth his card case, he pulled out his Decade card. “Can’t let you guys have all the fun!” Opening his driver, he slid the card in and closed it again.

‘Kamen Ride: Decade!’ Several silhouettes appeared around Wyatt, converge on him to create his armor before he joined in on the madness.

“Kyuubi Seibai Blast! Now, time to count up your sins!” Robert shouted, pressing the trigger, and unleashing a flaming fox head which bit down on Goldar.

Wyatt pulled out another card, slotting it into his belt. “I think he’s got at least ten to count up,” he joked, pushing in the handles of his belt buckle.

“Final Attack Ride: D-D-Decade!” his driver shouted, ten ethereal, grey cards appearing in front of him. He jumped into the air, the cards following his movements and creating a path straight to Goldar. Getting into a jump kick pose, Wyatt passed through the cards, his body disappearing in a blur of motion until he slammed into the flying monkey’s chest.

Goldar staggered forwards, sparking slightly, before he fell backwards and exploded.

“So….” Spike asked as he changed back from his Rider form. “Potato Salad?”

Again, everyone face-faulted.

Author's Note

Okay, so now the heroic riders have been thrown into the mix, and now things are really going to get crazy. Anyways, on this chapter, wasn't really a fan of all the Rider outfits being described to the very last detail, as let's face it most of us reading this story already know what they look like right?

Also, thought about having "Just Live More" AKA Gaim's opening theme play during the battle, but I'm saving it for later, and besides doesn't really work here as well as the situation I'm saving it for.

Anyways, comments, thoughts, and critique are welcomed.
