Author's Note

Sorry if I didn't give much detail on some things. If that's true, then I'll try get better at it.

Chapter 0 - The Starting Point

An Airport in LA

It's morning with the sun shining bright with many people moving around inside the airport. A boy with short black hair and brown eyes, wearing a red shirt with a grey sweater. dark blue pants and shoes that are gray and black, is standing at the entrance with two others who look like his parents.

The mother has long black curly hair and light blue eyes, is wearing coveralls because of being mechanic. His father's hair is also black but short and combed up, with same eye color as his son, while wearing a dentist uniform with white shoes.

"Are you sure you have everything? Because I don't want to hear later on something like, "Hey mom, it's Connor, I forgot my exclusive figure in the car. Can you make sure to carefully but it back in my room", I would really not want to deal with that when I'm on my way back home." she says with a smile to her son.

"Yes. I made sure to check and see if everything is all accounted for. Which it is." Connor says

"Sorry kiddo. We're just really nervous about letting you go off to another country on your own. Even you have to admit that's not easy for us." His dad says putting a hand on Connor's shoulder.

Connor sighs and smiles "I know. And I'm sorry about that. But I just really need to be at that event."

"Just let us know when you get there, okay? And send us a message now and then on what you're up to." his mom says with a sadden smile.

Connor walks up and hugs his parents, who gladly return the embrace and hold it for a good while. After they broke the hug, Conner's dad takes a look at his phone to check the time.

"We should get going. It's almost time for us to start work."

"Try not to miss me too much while I'm gone." Connor says after he sighs.

His mom gives him a light smack to the head "Please. Some peace and quiet from your mechanical inventions, that's like a miracle from the heavens." she says with a smile.

"Then enjoy the peace while you can." Connor says as he begins to walk off. He turns around and waves goodbye to them. They wave back to him before he turns back around and continues going toward the security check point. They watch him as he's going through the check point.

"I know he has other reasons why he has to go but is he really going to be alright on his own?" his mom asks in a worried tone.

"I'm...not sure." he says with reluctance "We're just gonna have to believe he'll be alright and figure it out on his own."

"I hope you're right."

"You and me both." he says as they see their son go out of sight and turn to leave the airport.

After the check point and having waited for people to start boarding the plane, Connor has now taken his seat and stays looking out the window till the plane has taken off. Connor takes out a pin, with an image of a blue tank on it, keeping a sad look on it. I'm so sorry. was a thought went through his head with a tear escaping him.

While in Tokyo, Japan

A boy by the name Reiji is laying down in a hammock outside a mansion in the middle of the night. His light brown hair is a bit grown out hanging down to his neck, with emerald eyes, wearing an orange muscle shirt with black outlines that make an image of a tiger head, along with black and white shorts, and black socks.

He sways back and forth on the hammock petting a white mouse, while reading a message on his phone. The message is from his father which says Don't bother waiting up for us. An emergency came up that can't be put off. Me and your mother are goanna have to stay in London a while longer till we get everything all sorted out. Sorry we won't be able to go watch how your Kamen Rider event goes. Maybe next time?

Reiji makes an amused look "I told ya it was going to happen. You owe me a penny, Ankh." he says after he puts his phone in his pocket and holds the mouse up a bit close to his face.

"Can't really blame them for wanting to make sure everyone stays happy." Reiji sits up "I guess we should get some rest if we're gonna have everything ready by time of the event." he says getting up holding Ankh with both hands and heading back inside the mansion.

In the Middle of Tokyo

Inside a dojo in the beginning of the afternoon, two brothers named Negi and Tsubasa are sparing with each other as their grandfather is watching and judging the two's skills. Both brothers are wearing white gi. Negi being the older brother, having black spikey hair with light brown eyes, is effortlessly dodging and blocking Tsubasa's every hit. Tsubasa, having black short hair with blue eyes, stops his assault and is planning his next move while catching his breath.

The grandfather. having white short beard and mustache with dark brown eyes, wearing a black gi. He raises an eyebrow having taken a notice from Negi's lack of spirit in his movement that he's allowing something to bother him. He closes his eyes, which the brothers take immediate notice of and cease their sparring to stand in front of him after bowing.

Turning to look Negi eye to eye "What is on your mind, my boy? Your focus seems to be elsewhere." the grandfather say.

"I'm sorry, Sensei," Negi ends with an exhausted sigh "I've just had my mind occupied."

"What could have...Oh. This is about what happened between you and your friends, right?" Tsubasa asked.

"That's also a part of the reason," Negi looks down at the floor "but I'm not completely sure. Something just doesn't feel right to me. Like something or someone is calling."

Hearing this causes the grandfather to chuckle a bit "You have always had great senses, ever since you were born." he says with a smile and puts a hand on Negi's shoulder "Though those senses really made your parents restless when they tried to keep you asleep during nap times. I'm sure you'll figure out what you're sensing, when the time is right."

He starts leading his grandsons out of the dojo "For now, let's get back to the house before your grandmother and parents give us an ear full."

"I'm not so sure I'm supposed to figure it out." Negi mumbles to himself.

2 Days Later in Tokyo

In the middle of the morning, Connor was running down the street, stopping every now and then to catch his breath while at a stop light, in a rush to get to the Kamen Rider event. Still wearing the same gray sweater and shoes but is now in a black shirt and a lighter blue pants.

"I knew I should've gone to sleep early." he was telling himself "But no. I had to be tempted to squeeze in some late-night episodes of Den-o."

Something catches Connor's attention from the corner of his eye, which causes him to stop and turn to see two teen girls, who seem to be here for the event, are arguing about something. Something about the girls seem strangely familiar, even though he's sure he has never meet them before. First girl has long curled blond hair with blue eyes, wearing purple shorts, purple and white shoes, and a white shirt that seems to have the symbol of Kamen Rider Kiva on it. The second girl is tanned with long messy black hair and green eyes, wearing blue ripped jeans, black sneakers and a black shirt which also has a rider symbol. But this symbol was of Kamen Rider Build.

Connor thinks of ignoring the two at first but decides against it and then approaches the two after waiting a moment of collecting his nerves.

"Excuse me?" Connor asks. The girls turn to face him, with the girl with the build shirt eyeing him suspiciously.

"What do you want?" the Kiva girl gets in front of her friend.

"Sorry about my friend. You've just caught us at a bad time."

Connor waves it off "It's alright. Can't really blame her. Sorry if I'm being nosey but I was wondering what was going on. By the way, name is Connor."

"My name is Jen. This here," Jen says motioning to her friend "is my friend Ran. I was giving her an earful because she lost our tickets for the event." Jen says with an upset look.

"I told you, I didn't lose them." Ran say angerly "I ... just can't remember where I left them" she ends scratching the back of her head.

"This is why I always tell you to double check your things."

"I did."

"I left you with our stuff when I went back for...my phone." Jen paused a second taking notice Ran looking away "What happened?"

"I'm sorry, Jen." Ran said with a sigh. She takes off her backpack and pulls out a folder.

Jen and Connor watch as she takes out a card from the folder and shows it to them. The card is of Kamen Rider Cross-Z Build from an arcade game called Ganbarizing.

"This guy showed up while you were gone and wanted see if I was interested in buying this card. I guess he had someone take our tickets while he distracted me." Ran says with regret in her voice "I'm really sorry, Jen. This is all my fault."

"It's not your fault, Ran. Don't blame yourself for what those jerks did." she says putting a reassuring smile. "Just forget about it. We can just go enjoy the sights."

"How do expect me to forget it? Didn't you really want to meet your favorite actor?" Ran says with a sad look. Connor starts thinking about something.

"There's always next time. Let's just en-" Jen is cut off as Connor holds out two tickets in front of them.

"Take these." Connor says handing them to Ran.

"W-what? We can't take these. You came far for the event too, didn't you?" Jen tries to protest.

"It's alright. I was mostly just here to fulfill a promise. As long as I'm in front of the building before the event ends, I'll have fulfilled it." he says.

Before he could continue, he hears his phone get a message notification.

Ran looks at tickets and then holds them out. "But there's two. Weren't you planning to do something with it?"

Connor looks back to her after having checked the message "I was going to give it to a friend that lives here. But he just let me know right now that he wasn't gonna be able to make it. So, everything is good." Connor takes a step back "Well I better get going."

"Wait. If you're going to the event still, why not go with us?" Ran asks.

"She's right. That way we can think of a way to repay you." Jen says.

"Nah I don't need anything to be thanked. Just happy to help. Plus, I was thinking going to help out my friend. Something tells me he might need help."

"Then we wish you luck on helping your friend." Jen says. Connor waves bye and turns to start walking off.

"Hey Connor!" Ran shouts. As he turns to look back, he quickly catches something Ran throws to him.

He looks and sees she through him two clear bottles that fit into the palm of his hand. He takes immediate notice that they're bottles that Kamen Rider Build uses to transform but don't have an image and is blank at the top. Connor gives her a confused look.

"Just my way of saying thanks." Ran says holding out her fist with a smile. Connor just nods with a smile and continues on his way. "I think we just found another one." she says after Connor is too far to hear.

"I think you may be right."

A Few Minutes Before

Negi is sitting on a bench in a park. He's wearing a green shirt with the image of a grasshopper on it, black jeans, and black shoes with a bit of white on small parts. The park is nice with many people and families walking and hanging around the area. He looks around thinking of what he has been feeling till his he takes notice of 2 teen girls, who look his age, with a younger girl looking around random spots looking for something.

One of the girls has long beautiful red hair with light brown eyes, wearing a light tan-colored jeans, yellow high heels and a pink shirt. The second, who is a bit taller, has long braided black hair with light blue eyes, wearing black shorts, gray shoes and a red shirt. The younger girl also has long black hair and blue eyes, wearing light green shorts, red and black sneakers, and a red shirt with the symbol of Kamen Rider Agito. Being curious, Negi gets up and walks over to them.

"Do you girls need help with something?" he asks them, while also taking notice of something else.

Both girls have hair pins with rider symbols on it. The red haired girl's hair pin has Kamen Rider Zi-o's symbol on it. While the black haired girl's pin has Kamen Rider Zero-One.

"Oh...well, I'm helping my friend and her little sister look for their puppy. He got loose while we were talking and was gone by the time we noticed." says the red haired girl. The younger girl walks up to Negi.

"Can you help us find Jack?"

Negi smiles "Of course. You can count on me." The girl smiles as the other girl walks up to him.

"Sorry for my sister asking like that. But we really apricate the help. My name is Rose" The girl pats her little sister's head. "This girl here is Lily. Jack is our germen-shepherd pup."

"Nice to meet you." Lily says as the red hair girl stand next to Rose.

"And I'm Sky. What's your name?"

"I'm Negi. I can definitely find Jack."

"Really? How?" Rose asks with a raised eyebrow.

"I just need something that belongs to him." The girls stare at him confused. "Look let's just say I have great senses that can help me find Jack." Rose makes a suspicious face.

"How do we know you didn't just take him or are just wasting our time trying to seem like some kind of knight in shining armor." Rose reacts quickly and catches a wallet. "What are you doing?"

"You can hold on to my wallet as my word that I'll find your dog in no time. I just need something that belongs to him to pull it off."

Rose is reluctant at first but then hands him a leash, that Negi takes without question. "This is Jake's leash. You better not make me regret this."

"I promise I won't." Negi holds the leash close to his chest as he closes his eyes. After a minute of focusing, Negi's eyes shoot open. "I got him. You girls wait here while I go get him." Negi takes out his phone and quickly sends a message.

"Why? What's wrong?" Shy asks.

"Is something wrong with, Jack? Is he in trouble?" Lily asks with worry in his eyes.

"Not really. I just think it'd be faster if I went to get him." Negi ends giving her a reassuring smile.

Before Lily could reply, her sister puts a hand on her shoulder while looking at Negi "Okay. We'll trust you and wait here."

"Got it. I'll be back as fast as I can." Negi says as he runs off to their left down a street.

Lily looks to her sister and Sky after Negi is gone. "What do the two of you think about him?"

"I think he has potential." Sky says with a smile.

Rose shakes her head. "I'm not sure yet. But we'll know soon enough."

After a few minutes, he was hiding behind a corner as he looks around it and looks down the street to the front of a museum, where a group was sitting at the steps with one of the holding a germen shepherd pup.

I'm gonna have to go about this carefully if I don't want Jack to get hurt. Maybe I can Negi thoughts were interrupted when a hand taps his shoulder. He turns to see Connor next to him. "Connor? You're Connor, right?"

"It's good to finally meet you in person, Negi." Connor says with a smile.

"What are you doing here? I told you to go to the event without me."

"I had to give away the tickets to help someone out. Plus, I figured you were gonna need help with this." He says looking around the corner. "So, what are we doing?"

Negi looks back. "We need to get that pup back. His owners have been looking around for him."

"What do you suggest we do?"

"I think we should try to talk it out and see where it goes from there." Negi says with a shrug.

Mean While On A Street

Reiji is on a white and orange motorcycle wearing a black motorcycle jacket, black gloves with orange, blue jeans, black boots and an orange helmet. He's riding down till he stops at a red stoplight and looks around a bit, waiting for the light to change. He eyes comes to a stop seeing Two teens his age, from the looks of it, with two young girls, one who is trying to comfort the other who is crying.

One of the teens is a girl with white hair braided into a bun with the top of it being puffy and has red eyes, wearing pink short shorts, light blue shoes and a red shirt. The second is boy with black short hair and has blue eyes, wears brown pants, black and gray shoes, and a white shirt. One of the younger girls has long blond hair and purple eyes, wearing black skinny jeans, purple and white sneakers, and a purple shirt with a symbol of Kamen Rider Blade. The last girl who is crying has short black hair that's tied back and has light brown eyes, wearing white short shorts, white shoes and a red sleeveless shirt with symbol of Kamen Rider Drive.

Reiji decides to move and park to the side with a truck doing the same right behind him. He places his helmet on his motorcycle handle as he got off and took off his gloves and put them into his pocket as he walked over to them. The two teens take notice of him as got close.

"Is something wrong?" Reiji asks with a curious look.

"One of our friends here lost a card of hers that meant a lot to her." The teen boy says.

"Sorry to hear." Reiji moves a bit closer to the two younger girls. "Hey, my name is Reiji. What's your guy's name?"

The Blade girl looks to him. "My name is Crystal. My friend here is Sarah." She looks to the other two. "She's Kim and he's Adam." Reiji focusses on Sarah.

"So, what card did you lose?" He asked making Sarah look to him with eyes still watery.

"I-It was a K-Kamen Rider...Drive Type F-Formula card."

"Ouch. I'd be crying too." Reiji ponders something for second. "I think I might have something that could cheer you up." He said with a smile.

"What do you have in mind?" Kim asks as they watch him go.

Reiji walks away from them and goes over to the truck that rolled down a window as he got close to it. The four watched as he started talking to someone. They were curious what he was doping for a while till he was handed something and then started walking back to them.

Reiji walked back to them with a deck of cards in hand, that he started to shuffle around like a magician, like having the cards launch from one hand to the other, like from side to side or up and down going sideways. He stopped as he reached them and held out the cards to Sarah like a magician would with a grin on his face.

"Pick a card. Any card."

Sarah is reluctant at first but then reaches and pulls out a card. She gets surprised by the card seeing it as a card that read Kamen Rider OOO Super Tatoba.

"No way!" She shouts loudly.

"Is that your card?"

Sarah smiles "No. But this is still an awesome card."

"Then continue till you find your card."

Sarah gives a guilt look at first but continues when Reiji encourages to. She ends up pulling out 5 cards in total. All being Rider cards, that starting and ending with Ghost Mugan, Ex-aid Mighty Brothers XX, Gaim Kachidoki Arms, Build Rabbit Dragon, and Drive Type Tridoron. Reiji makes a confused look.

"Strange. I thought for sure it'd be there." Sarah was about to say something, but Reiji cuts her off. "Oh. Now I remember." He reaches out to her and pulls out a card from what looked like to everyone was her eye. "Is this your card." He asks with a smirk.

After Sarah shakes her head clear, she gasps from the shock of seeing the exact same card she lost. Reiji gladly hands it over to her seeing the smile spreading on her face. She looks at the card for a while, then reaches out and wraps her arms Reiji giving him a hug.

"Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" She cheerfully shouts. Reiji says nothing and accepts the hug with a smile. "I can't thank you enough for this." After she finishes the hug, she looks at and then holds out the other cards to him. "What do you want for the card?"

Reiji waves it off. "Nothing. They're all yours now" he says loving the shocked face she's making.

"A-Are you sure?"

"Yup. With no strings or favors included."

"Cool! Thanks!" Sarah and Crystal say in unison.

Reiji chuckles seeing the two now start looking over the cards and talking to each other. Kim and Adam come next to him.

"That was really sweet of you." Kim says giggling from the sight of the two girls now arguing about what cards the other should get. "You really made their day, even before the Kamen Rider event."

"What can I say, I always like see everyone at the event happy." Reiji says as he claps his hands together and petals start shooting out his sleeves that he points upward. Causing both the girls and Kim to be surprised and laugh.

"You must really love making others happy?" Adam says as he holds out his hand to Reiji after having waited for the petals to stop. "Someone I can fully respect."

Reiji smiles and shakes Adam's hand which leads him to take notice of two things by chance. The first is Adam has a ring on his right hand that has the symbol of Kamen Rider Gaim. The second is the symbol of Kamen Rider OOO on a keychain hanging on the side of Kim's shorts. The two notice Reiji was about to ask them something but stopped as something caught his attention.

"Sorry fellas, it's been fun but...I gotta go." Reiji snapped his fingers in front of Kim when he had paused a bit, which caused flowers to appear in his hand and hands them to her. Kim giggled at the act and gladly took them. "I really hope I'll get to see you guys again."

Adam smiles "I'm sure we will at some point."

"Then I shall be off." Reiji says as he's about to run.

"Hold on, Reiji!" Kim shouts. Reiji turns as she runs up to him and hands him what looks like three coins. He recognized these as core metals that OOO's uses to transform. But these core metals were clear and colorless with only a gold color going around the edge of the ring being the same as the original. "A gift for making my friends happy."

Reiji gives a confused look at the core metals but then shrugs it off and gives her smile with a nod before he continued to go. All of Kim's friends gather around her as soon as Reiji is far enough.

"Looks like another was found." Crystal says

"Isn't strange that three have been found on the same day?" Sarah asks

"Nope. Just means fate has plans for them." Adam says crossing his arms.

Kim smiles. "Something special is going to happen. I can feel it."

Minutes Later

Rose, Lily and Sky are still waiting at the park sitting down on the same bench Negi had been on. Rose is looking at a picture of Negi and his family that's in his wallet. She smiles seeing them look happy. She gets interrupted from her thoughts when they hear a pup barking and looks up along with her sister and friend to see their pup Jack running up to them with Negi, Connor and Reiji come walking up behind him. Lily runs up to her pup as they got up and picks him up.

"Jack. Where've you been? We've been looking for you." She said scolding the pup.

Rose and Sky look toward the three. "I was wrong. You really were being honest with your promise. Sorry for having accused you like that." Rose said apologizing.

Negi smirks playfully "Nah. Think nothing of it. Just glad I was able to help."

Sky looks at the other two. "Who are you two?"

"Just friends of Negi. I went looking for him after he sent me a message says he wasn't gonna be able to meet up with me. I figured he needed help." Connor says

"I just happen to be close by when I saw the argument these two were in." Reiji says smiling

The girls make confused looks. Negi sighs "Okay. Here's what happened."

Negi and his friends start explaining about how they found Jack being held by someone in a group of teens. Connor and Negi tried explaining to them about needing to take Jack back to his owners. The guy holding Jack refused, saying that his little sister has been feeling depressed and wanted to cheer her up with the pup. They tried persuading or giving him alternatives, but he refused and then him and the group started arguing with them.

As the argument was getting heated and Negi was thinking a fight was gonna start, all of a sudden, he sees something roll in between them that burst into smoke in the middle of them and Reiji appeared bowing. He gets caught up on the whole situation and after talking to the one holding Jack, Reiji then makes a call which leads to a truck parking close by. A man comes out of the truck with an akita pup and after explaining everything for the akita pup is all sorted out, Negi gets handed Jack, and the guy takes the akita pup.

"And that's all we had to go through." Negi says.

Connor sighs "You think they would've been more cooperative, but they were really being stubborn about it."

"Sorry we had you go through that." Lily says with regret, but he waves it off.

"Nah. That was our choice."

Rose looks to Negi. "You really kept your word. I have to admit, I really doubted that ability of yours, but you proved me wrong."

She tosses him his wallet and a rectangular like box that was the same size as the wallet. Negi moves his wallet out of the way to take a closer look and notices, along with his two friends, that it's a progrise key from Kamen Rider Zero One but that the front is clear and see through, and the inside is blank.

"Interesting. Just like mine." Reiji says taking out his clear core metals.

"Wait. You too?" Connor says taking out his full bottles. "Strange. Are they new special items for fans?"

Negi out the key. "What's this for?"

"Just my way of apologizing for doubting you." Rose said. Negi is about to say something, but Reiji stops him.

"Hey, I say it's a fair trade. Let's just be glad at least everyone got what they wanted at the end and that everyone is happy." Reiji says smiling.

"Not everyone just yet." A new voice said.

The guys get startled by surprise and turn around quickly. Now in front of their sight is a teenage girl with magenta colored eyes in a long sleeveless lavender dress lined with gold colored stars on the trim and a red ribbon going around the waist and tied into a bow on the back, with black high heels and a silver pendant with a bright clear orange crystal in the shape of a sun and a purple crescent moon in the middle of it.

Right now, besides every other person being gone from the area, three things were unnatural in the sight of the guys. The first being the sky. The second they turned their sights to this girl; the sky was completely different by both the sun and moon being out on different sides of the sky. With many stars filling the dark parts of the sky. The last two strange things were both from the girl. One being her hair flowing around with nonexistent breeze of wind. The second was a large glowing symbol of Kamen Rider Decade floating behind her.

Connor put a hand to his head. "I either think something is wrong with my head or I don't think we're home anymore."

"You're partly right. Right now, we're on the edge of your dimension." The girl says with a smile as she and all the others the guys helped appear out of no wear from behind the girl and circle around the guys. The guys were about to speak but she held up her hand to stop them. "Sorry but we don't have much time. First, I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Dawn. And I'm sure you already know everyone's names, just like we know yours."

"What's going on here? And what do you mean we're at the edge of the dimension?" Negi asks looking around both confused and curious along with the other two.

Sky makes a sorrowful look. "We're sorry but we really need your help."

"Well to be exact, all worlds and dimensions need your help." Ran says butting in.

This info just confuses the three. "I'm sorry, but you've lost us on this." Reiji says

"A horrible, sickening dark presence is making the worlds frightened." Kim with a scared look.

Adam frowns "It's not even awaked and yet it's mere spark is echoing through the worlds."

"If this darkness awakens and is allowed to fully grow, every world will be in danger." Jen says

"And what are we supposed to do?" Connor asks looking around.

Dawn makes a sadden smile "You'll need grow to be able to face it. The rest, you'll find out soon enough." She snaps her fingers before the guys could question her. In an instant, the Decade make disappeared and reappeared both underneath and above them, with six large cards with a silver looks wave moving inside it. The center of the cards each had a different image in it. The first is a pink butterfly, second is a red lightning bolt. third being a blue balloon, fourth a purple diamond, fifth an orange apple, and a magenta six-pointed star. "We're really sorry for forcing this decision on you. But too much is at stake."

"What do you mean?!" Negi demands

"There's no time left." Dawn states

Dawn holds out both her hands. As her hands start to glow, the giant cards start to spin going faster and faster while circling around the guys causing the Decade symbols to glow brighter. All three friends start covering their eyes from the blinding light.

"Please protect and save every world!" Crystal, Lily and Sarah shout in unison.

"Wait. How will we get back? We have family waiting for us." Connor says.

"You won't. Sorry but this is a one-way trip." Rose says sadly. "Just know you're not sacrificing leaving your old world behind for nothing."

"But-" Reiji is cut off when the cards converge at the center of them with the six images now circling them from different angles. Before they could say anything else, the Decade symbol above starts coming down on them which causes them to disappear as it goes through them. By the time both symbols meet and merge, the three are gone and the Decade symbol fades out.

Jen looks to Dawn. "Do you really think they'll be able to stop this evil?"

"Stop it, no. What they'll need to do is defeat on equal terms at best. But that'll take a miracle." Dawn says.

Rose smirks. "I'm sure they'll pull it off. After all, they won't be on their own like the owners of the gifts they'll receive."

Within the Dimensional Wormhole

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!" the three scream.

They're falling through a wormhole made of the same silver wave that the cards had with the six images still circling them.

"What exactly is going on? Where are they sending us?!" Connor asks freaking out a bit.

"I'm pretty sure that's what we'd all want to know. I think we should focus more on that weird feeling." Negi says

Reiji sighs "What weird feeling? I'm pretty sure we've reached the limit of weird today."

"Um...I think I know what he's talking about." Connor says

"What do yo-" Reiji stops as he notices his hands and feet start to glow. "Something tells me the weirdness is just beginning."

The six images start spinning faster, turning into rings of energy that consume the three in a rainbow light. The light starts spreading turning the silver waves into gold. The rainbow orb starts racing down the path with the light doing something to the three inside.

Chapter 1 part 1- Worlds Collide

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 1 part 2- The Magic of Friendship and Henshin

The Roof of Canterlot High

"WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?!" Ressha shouted. The last thing he remembered was that they were about to be roasted by a lizard monster. Now he and the others were now standing on the roof. "Where'd that monster go? How'd we get up here? And what's this on my hand?" Ressha asked as he found a glowing blurry symbol on the back of his right hand.

"You aren't the only one." Reiji shows the back of his hand.

Ressha looks towards the others and sees a glowing symbol not just on Reiji, but also on Connor and Negi as well. Each glowing symbol was different. The blurry symbols on Connor, Negi and Reiji almost matched the ones on their outfits. Having heard them, Twilight who's standing next to Drago and Reiji looks and inspects their hands without asking.

"Interesting. Each one of them are different. Ressha's looks like a circle with lines in it. Connor's looks like two halves of a gear with a line going through between them. Negi's looks like a mask with...horns, I think? And Reiji's is a circle with something inside it." Twilight looks to them. "Are these the symbols that mean you've been chosen to be candidates to be Riders?" Discord walks over next to them.

"Yup. Another way to tell is if you have something like this." Discord makes a card appear like a magician.

"AH!" Connor and his 2 friends shouted as they went wide eyed. Connor points to the card. The card is grayed out, has the image of what looked like an armored hero with big round insect-like eyes and lines going down the face. "That's Decade's card. So...you're saying we should have something like that?" Discord nods to confirm.

The four begin searching their pockets and each end up finding something. Ressha had a grayed out pass of sorts. The Negi and his friends already knew what it is. As for them, the three pulled out items that are the same as the ones they arrived with but have images on them and are grayed out instead.

Connor has two bottles. one has the images of a rabbit and the other of a tank. Negi has a rectangle box with the image of a grasshopper and has 'RISING HOPPER' and 'ABILITY JUMP' on it. Reiji had...six coins? Three were grayed out with the images of a bird, tiger and grasshopper which are known as the taka, tora and batta medals. The other three were different. They each had different colors with gold yellow going around the rim. The first coin was a see-through lavender color with the image of a horse running to its left. The second is a see-through light purple with a pegasus facing forward. The third and final one was see-through magenta color with a unicorn facing to its right.

"Why are those different from the others?" Connor asked confused.

"I don't know. Ask Twilight." Reiji said surprising Twilight.

"Me? How would I know?" Twilight asked confused.

"What do you mean? They changed when-"

"Waitwaitwaitwait!" Everyone turns to Ressha. "Can someone please explain to me how we got up here?"

Everyone looked at each other and then back to him. "You don't remember?" Drago asked.

"Nope. I've got nothing. So, would you guys' mind filling me in?"

"Okay. Here's what happened."

A few minutes ago

A huge blast of fire was headed towards the whole group as Drago ran to Twilight and Spike, with a bokken in his right hand. He quickly pulls out the black crystal and slid it across the bokken making a red aura surrounding it. Drago stops, positioning himself in front of Twilight and Spike when he reached them.

"Stay close." Drago told Twilight while getting into a stance.

Twilight and Spike listened as they got behind him and wait scared but still curious to see what he was going to do. Right when the blast was inches from them, Drago raised the bokken over his head and then swings downward sending a transparent red aura slash. It drags itself forward along the ground till it collides with the blast. The slash holds back the blast in front of them keeping them safe for a bit, while the rest of it goes around them.

As the blast reached Discord, he snaps his fingers making a huge metal wall appear and plant itself in front of him, shielding him from the blast. Discord smirks at his work till he gets blinded for a second by a bright light. He turned to look behind himself to his left to look at its source. In his sights now was Negi and Reiji, seeing a glow come off them, with different glowing symbols form on the back of right hands. The second they appear, the expressions on the two's faces change as if they get possessed. Seeing this, Discord looked at the opposite side to his right and looked a little further back to see the same exact thing happening to Connor and Ressha.

Reiji crossed his arms together as the yellow on his sweater glowed creating three long yellow claw blades hovering over both his hands. As the blast is about to reach him and Negi, Reiji swings his arms open, with the claws copying his hands movement, creating two claw slashes that collide with the blast and holds it at bay.

When it came to Connor and Ressha, Connor slammed his right fist over his chest making blue looking particles appear and converge around his body. while Ressha held out his right hand, making red looking energy come out from it and shape itself into a sword. The blue particles formed into a tank themed armor around Connor with his right arm's armor being the tank's cannon. Ressha took a hold of the sword, which turned his hair spikey while also changing his eyes and the tips of his spikey hair red. Connor and Ressha then held back the blast by using a red slash and a cannon blast.

Connor repeated the process again, making red particles this time, which replaces the tank armor and form into a red rabbit themed armor with red rabbit ears covering his ears. On Negi's right arm, the words 'ABILITY JUMP' appeared as the bottom of his legs got covered in yellow data that forms into that of a grasshopper's. As for Reiji, the green of his pants and shoes glowed as the green light builds to the bottom of his feet.

Drago, mostly just barely being able see the lights, was wondering what was going on till a note appeared in front of him. He reads through it as fast as he could, then quickly turns to pick up Spike and then holds Twilight close to him, making her face go red.

Twilight looks at him. "What are you-"

"Hold on tight."

After having told her this, the flames got around or through everyone's guards and were about to get them. Before it could, Connor, Negi and Reiji used their magic to jump high up and land on the roof. While Discord used his magic to teleport himself along with everyone else by making a veil of silver appear and pass through them, which transports them above the roof, making them fall on to it. Flames of the blast consume the now empty spots, which build up before bursting out into three small explosions. Drago, Twilight and Spike ended up falling on Reiji, making his blank core metals fell out of his pocket, touching the ends to Twilight's fingers and creates a flash of magenta, lavender and purple light. Which quickly dies down and leaves behind the horse, pegasus and unicorn core metals.

]Flashback Ends[/i

Connor raises a brow, "Those blank metals turn into these?" he asked.

"Yup. I've still got no clue, why they changed." Reiji said looking at the three metals before Twilight takes them along with the grayed out ones. "Hey!"

Twilight examines the colored metals. "Amazing. Unicorn, pegasus, and...I think represents an earth pony. It's almost like these coins copied my species." She then looks over the grayed ones. "Though why do these not have color?"

"We can talk about that later. For now, let's head back inside the school before we draw attention to ourselves." Drago says.

"I'm pretty sure the extra crispy field is going to draw everyone's attention." Ressha points out. "I mean lo-" he goes speechless seeing the field back to normal.

Spike looks to Discord. "Did you do that?"

Discord smirks. "Yes. You may all bow to my greatness."

"Yeah. Yeah. Now come on. We got some planning to do. Discord, if you'd please do the honors." Drago said, which Discord gladly complied by making the same veil of silver appear. Drago and Discord walk through it with Connor, Negi and Reiji following behind. The others hesitated and looked at each other till they decided to follow. The other side leads them back to the library in between two shelves.

"This has really not been my day." Ressha said with a tired look.

"Tell me about it." Connor agrees.

Discord raised a brow. "Who is this guy anyways?"

This question barely registered in their heads as they turn to look at Ressha. Taking a closer look at him, they see his skin color is the same as Big Mac's with black messy hair wearing a white long sleeve shirt, light blue pants and white and black shoes.

"That's right. How did you get involved in the fight, Ressha?" Connor asks.

"Even I didn't know you were in the fight with us till that guy kept throwing you around." Drago said as he leaned against a shelf.

"Well to make a long story short, I barely transferred in today, been having a bad day as it was, left to the field to skip class for some fresh air, was blowing off some steam by talking to myself, and I ended up accidently hitting that giant gorilla on the head when I swung my arm around. You guys can easily guess the rest from there."

"You really have no luck." Discord said flatly.

"Which is what makes him fit as Den-o." Negi says.

Discord strokes his chin. "That's another Rider, right. Funny how so many of us are gathering here."

"Riders?" Ressha asked confused making Discord sigh.

"Here we go again. Come on. We'll explain this all again." Discord full of boredom said as they walked over to a table.

"YOUR ALIVE?!" The group heard making them turn to look to their left towards the entrance of the library and see Snips and Snails standing by the doors shaking full of shock and fright, probably thinking they're seeing ghosts.

"SSSSHHHHH!!" The librarian, Miss Cheerilee shushed them with a mad look.

As Cheerilee goes back to her work, the two barely pulled themselves out of their fear and are about to run for it. Unfortunately for them, the silver veil appears behind them as they turned to run, which makes them crash into the table the group were gonna sit at. Before they could try to run again, Discord used his magic again to have them tied to chairs, while being covered in yellow feathers wearing a red bib with a pacifier in their mouths that make it look like they have a beak, which Discord made it that Cheerilee couldn't see any of it on them and that the two couldn't spit it out the pacifiers. Seeing this the group look at Discord with confused looks.

"What? They've deserved it."

Drago sighs. "Okay. First, get rid of those ridicules looks off them. Second, I'm leaving it to you and Spike to explain everything to Ressha, while I see what these two know."

Discord slouches. "Of course. Come on, Thomas." Ressha brow raised confused. "Don't ask. Next stop, history review." He groans at the end as he leads Ressha to a different table with Spike following behind and changes the two chicks back.

Reiji raised his hand. "What about us?"

"You guys and Twilight try coming up with a plan for winning the crown."

Twilight nods. "I think that's a good idea. After what we saw, I think we'll need a plan more than ever now."

"Then let's get to work." Negi said as he and the others head to a table on the second floor. After seating themselves at a table, they took a second to relax before facing each other. "So, were you guys able to learn anything new or that we could use?"

Connor rests his hand on his head and taps a finger on the table using the other. "Well from the kaiju we saw today, the incidents and rumors I heard make sense now."

"What incidents and rumors?" Negi questioned.

"From what others had been hearing and spreading around, some students had said they saw weird creatures either walking around the school halls or chasing and tracking teachers down. If you ask me, sounds like they were covering their tracks on something."

Twilight ponders a bit hearing that. "If each creature was different, that'd probably mean there's more than just Molten as a kaiju. Did anyone ever look into it? Or see if the teachers that were chased were still around and found out anything?"

"No one has been able to find anything when they investigated it. The teachers chased were still around but none of them recall any of that. Everyone just assumes it was students playing pranks."

"What about those incidents you talked about?" Negi curious.

"For a while now, anyone who's tried running against Sunset in other events have either been hurt or resigned from the running. When asked about it, they just either said they didn't want to talk about it or that they wanted to focus on their studies. Though I'm pretty sure we can guess what actually happened."

Reiji coughs getting their attention. "Well from what I've heard around, everyone kept telling me how Sunset use to be nice during her first year here. Not nice' nice, but nice enough to not have everyone here either afraid or hate her. She actually tried to get along with others, joined clubs, even got herself a boyfriend. She kept changing a little for both good and bad bit by bit. That is until Molten showed up."

"What do you mean?" Twilight asked curiously.

"Supposably when Molten appeared at school, Sunset completely changed. She started showing more rage, jealousy of others, and started hurting to get what she wanted leading her to become the Sunny-ass everyone knows today. After what we've seen today, I wouldn't be surprised if he was controlling her."

"You'd be right on that guess."

Everyone turns to see Drago sitting at a seat behind Twilight.

"Ah! H-how long have you been there?" Twilight asked recovering from the scare.

Drago turned his seat to face them. "I actually sat down a few seconds ago. I didn't want to interrupt the topic you were on,"

"Find anything out." Negi asks crossing his arms.

Drago sighs. "Molten has a core metal."

"Really? Which one?" Reiji curious of the metal.

"The two couldn't make it out well. They said they saw Molten do something to Sunset by placing a black coin to her head, making her eyes go black for a second before going back to being the same. They also mentioned the metal having a second color."

Connor raises a brow. "Being the same? Does that mean she was acting different?"

Drago nods. "Snails said that she was crying. My guess is the real her was visible at that moment."

Negi's expression hardens. "Meaning she doesn't want to be doing this much at least. Molten is using the core metal to manipulate her."

"I get it. It's because the metals were made out of human desire." Reiji says leaning back in his chair. "But what metal is he using? No metal I know has two colors."

"Maybe the darkness corrupted it." The guys look to Twilight. "Wouldn't that explain why it'd have two colors. The black could be the metal being corrupted."

"If that's true, then it could mean the darkness has something planned for the crown or Sunset. Or maybe even-" Drago stops seeing Discord, Ressha and Spike reaching the top of the stairs and walk over to them. "How'd the talk go?"

Ressha and Spike deadpan. "Next time, don't leave us with the clown." Ressha answered. "But to really answer, yeah he did. So, I'm a candidate to become a Rider or whatever they're called. Just perfect." He said with a tired sigh.

"Pretty much." Discord says. "Also, I know what the Molten and the darkness want." Everyone gets surprised hearing this.

"Then what are they after?" Twilight asks.

"They want to charge and corrupt the crown." Twilight and Spike become horrified hearing this. Discord stops her from questioning so he can continue. "The way they're trying to accomplish this is by filling this whole school with negative emotions to fill the crown with it."

"How'd you figure it out?" Drago asked confused.

"I figured it out after all the phones of the students and staff members I was able to look into." Everyone stares at Discord with disapproving eyes. "Yes. Yes. I know, that's not nice. May karma strike me down. Look at least it got results. Anyways, from all that I learned, there are lots of lies going around among the shadows of the students. Someone or something is purposely trying to bring down everyone's emotions. Either by making them fear Sunset, hate or feel jealous of each others, or other negative emotions."

"What's so important about negative emotions?" Ressha questioned.

"It's a substitute." Drago says in realization. "I knew something felt off." He looks around the room. "The whole school must be filled with this negative aura. That would explain you two." Drago ends looking to Twilight and Spike.

The two look at each other confused before looking back to him. "Can you explain what you mean?" Twilight asks.

"As an alicorn, even in this world you should be able to use magic like us. But you can't. And then Spike here." Drago looks down at Spike. "He should've been human also. Instead, he came here as a dog. The only thing that could affect the portals like that is the area being filled with an opposite element."

"Wait! So, the negative aura made me into a dog?" Spike asked now annoyed at this news.

"Kinda. Every living thing has an aura. It's because of your guy's aura that you were able to pass through. The aura Twilight has as an alicorn mostly protected her when she entered. Your aura isn't as strong as hers though. So, you ended up taking the form of something that could fit you through with the negative field covering you."

Discord smirks. "Exactly. That was the first clue that started it all. The darkness knows it could never regain its dark magic with the portals staying active. Meaning it has to look for an alternative." Discord snaps his fingers and makes two different but similar images. "Dark magic and negative aura may be different but the energy between the two are similar enough to replaced one another. Which could only mean..." Discord looks to Twilight to continue.

Twilight seems to realize something. "If they're similar and can replace each other, it means it'd make it that much more important to a user of dark magic. Though there's still a problem with that."

"What's the problem?" Negi asks.

"Even with them being similar, the user would still need a way to synchronize the two for it to be of use to them. Hm...unless" Twilight goes pale coming to a realization. She looks to Discord for confirmation, who nods with sad grim look.

Connor switches looking between the two before speaking. "What's wrong? Did we overlook something?"

Twilight shakes her head slowly. "N-no."

Discord sighs. "They have everything they need to synchronize the negative aura. They just need enough negative emotion."

Spike was reluctant to ask being afraid. "W-what is it they already have?"

"The crown and Sunset." Drago answered.

"Yes. That's right." Discord admitted. "They're planning to use Sunset as a catalyst to sacrifice while she wears the crown to synchronize the energies."

"But wouldn't the Element of Magic reject it since they're opposites?" Spike asked.

Twilight shakes her head. "Normally yes. If the other elements were with it and it was full of its magic. But here..."

Drago continues. "It can't replenish its magic. The second its magic is used up; it'll be the perfect tool for them to use." Drago looks to everyone. "More than ever, we need to win. Cause if we don't stop this, Sunset will die being used as a sacrifice and the darkness will be awakened."

"Then let's come up with a plan." Reiji speaks up feeling more fired up and determined to win.

"What about the burning lizard that'll fry us?" Ressha brings up. "Cause I don't see how we're gonna deal with that."

Everyone ponders on that till they all shout "THE ELEMENT OF MAGIC!!". They go silent for a minute, after getting a shushed by Cheerilee.

Twilight resumes. "If we can get Sunset to see the error of her ways and change her mind while being connected to me while I'm wearing my crown. The two combined could reverse the negative aura, turning it into a pure positive power that could either weaken or get rid of Molten's powers."

Reiji stands up. "So, we just continue with the original goal and win the crown. We just need to figure out how."

"I know how." Everyone focuses on Discord again. "Another piece of information I came by was about a group of five friends who were tricked into blaming each other. A group that one of us kind of knows." Discord ends with a grin towards Twilight.

"So, the girls were made to hate each other." Spike seeing Discord's meaning.

"That's horrible. Making friends go against each other." Twilight said with a sad look.

"If they can help turn the tide on winning, then why don't we help bring them back together." Connor suggest.

As everyone aggressed, the bell rings signaling the end of school.

"Let's continues this at the cafe." Drago said as he stood up. "You guys are gonna love it."

The others decide to follow Drago and Discord as they left the library.

"I'm curious what Drago meant by us loving the cafe." Spike said to the others as he followed alongside Twilight.

Half an Hour Later

The group walked through some neighborhoods. Letting Twilight and Spike enjoy themselves by taking in the new sights as they walked by houses and parks. Their journey through comes to an end when they stop in front of a large sized two-story building with big windows at the front. It was made out of red bricks with most of the roof being flat and white, with a glass dome at the center. The front of the building had two revolving doors, different shaped bushes by the window that seemed odd to them and going along the top of the two revolving doors was a stain glass window with the image of dinosaurs.

"This is a cafe?" Ressha asked confused "Why's it so big?"

Drago and Discord grin. "You'll see." Drago says as he walks in.

Their jaws drop upon seeing the inside. The front half of the place has a couple of tables and chairs, along with two different counters. One was the counter for the cafe having a register along with being full of items, such as deserts, breads and snacks, with a menu board on the wall behind the counter. The second counter was one they didn't expect to see. This counter was meant for the rest of the building, which is a huge library, full of different rows and sections of shelfs full of books, with a bit of tables, chairs, couches and recliners spread around. The walls and ceilings of each section had pictures or images matching it. The glass dome of the building is what surprised Twilight and Spike the most. The outside of the dome looks normal, but on the inside it's a stain glass window. But not just any stain glass window. It a stain glass window with the image of the whole map of Equestria.

"I'll admit, I'm impressed." Connor admitted.

"What is this place?" Twilight asks amazed with her eyes glowing with so much life and excitement. "There's so many books here of all kinds from the looks of it. And how does it have a map of Equestria?"

"Hey, they even have a section for comics!" Spike shouted from across the room. "They even have Power Ponies here!"

Twilight goes confused. "How can that even be here?"

"Maybe because this is the home of an Equestrian Dragon!"

Everyone jumps being getting startled by suddenly hearing a loud muffled voice, except for Drago and Discord who are relaxing by the library counter. The group quickly look up towards where they heard the voice and see someone standing on the second floor ledge. There they see a person in a black suit and tie, wearing a red scarf, black dress shoes, a trench coat, shades, and a black and red fedora.

The person jumps down and as they landed on the floor, the clothes just land in a heap with no one in them. They were about to question this till the clothes get blasted away in an explosion of smoke, which quickly fades away to reveal tall, beautiful woman in black high heels, a long purple dress, a black belt strap going around her waist with emerald gem shaped buckle, and a short sleeved unbuttoned red shirt. Her skin is a magenta color, with long green, emerald hair that was braided, and green, emerald eyes that look like they glow under the sunlight.

Everyone being captivated by her beauty, stay silent for a while till Discord decides to make an air horn appear connected to megaphone. He nearly breaks everyone's ears doing this and is rewarded with a smack to his head by the lady with a glare. She then looks to the group and waits for them to recover before bowing in an elegant manner with a smile.

"Ta-da! It's a pleasure to meet you, Twilight Sparkle, Spike and Riders." She stands straight, spreads out and holds her arms out wide towards the ceiling. "Welcome to my cafe/library/home the Dragons Cavern." She straightens herself while smiling to them. "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Emerald Drake. The owner of this lovely cavern and old resident of Equestria."

""A d-dragon? W-well, h-how'd you w-wind-up here?" Connor asked being stammered by her beauty.

"I used to just spend my days living like any other dragon till I got depressed and needed to find something new to live for. When I found a portal leading me here a couple years ago, I decided to start a new life here. I traveled around this whole world for a long while. Then after getting some help from these two's parents" Emerald motioning towards Drago and Discord. "I decided to open this place after I finished traveling and decided to fill it with any book I could get, weather it was from here or Equestria."

"So, how do you three know each other?" Negi asks having noticed Drago and Discord having enjoyed their reactions.

"Well, besides our families helping her settle here, we live and work here." Discord counted with a smiling grin. "She also-"

"This place is amazing!" Twilight said interrupting with sparkling eyes. She gasps and dashes to a nearby section, "T-t-these tombs...These belonged to Clover the Clever. Everypony thought these we lost. How'd you find these?" She questioned turning back to Emerald.

"I found those during a trip in Ireland. They were sealed in a cavern lost to time or something along those lines. I'm guessing an other dragon ended up stuck here after stealing them and tried to start a new hoard here."

"Is it okay if I read these?"

Emerald makes a blank look before bursting into laughter. "My dear, I don't consider this my hoard, if that's why you're asking. Plus, it's a library. You may read as many books as you like." Twilight smiles as big as Pinkie Pie and is about to grab the books till they disappear.

They reappear at a table that Discord and Drago are seated at. "Sorry, Twinkle. First plan, then you can read." Discord said with a grin while wiggling a finger. Twilight pouts with a blush as she and the other take a seat.

"So, does anyone have an idea what we can do to bring the girls back together?" Reiji asked.

"I actually got an idea." Everyone deadpans at him. "I'm serious. I've thought of something that could work."

"Alright then, let's hear it." Drago says with an unamused look. Discord leans and begins describing his plan.

Emerald smiling "I'll go prepare the extra rooms for the rest of you before getting you all something to drink and snack on." she said before walking off.

"Would you like some help?" Spike asks as he ran up and walks next to her. Emerald stops to stare at him for a bit before chuckling.

"I'm not sure how much help you'd be as a dog?"

Spike looks down sadly. "Yeah...I guess you're right."

Emerald smiles. "Why don't we fix that, then?" She said as she continued walking.

Spike stopped as he was left speechless by what he heard, before shaking himself out of his stupor and dashing to catch up to her with a smile. 20 minutes had gone by, as the group were now resting in their seats.

"Okay. So...while Discord and Reiji helps Twilight and Spike reuniting the girls, while you and Negi go looking a bit more into Sunset, you all want me and Ressha to do all we can to distract Molten and his group?" Connor questioned with a frown. "Why not leave that to Discord?"

Drago deadpans "You'd really want him to be in charge of causing distractions?"

Connor attempts a comeback but loses his words just imagining the outcome and sighs in defeat. "Point taken."

"I'm not really sure I'm comfortable with Discord helping us." Twilight says looking uncertain.

"Don't worry, Twilight. I won't out stage you too much that the girls would rather trust me more." Discord said smirking. Twilight looks at him annoyed. "Plus, unlike you, I've already thought of an idea."

Twilight raised a brow. "You have? What did you have in mind?"

"Knowing Discord, it's bound to be something that'll fill him with joy and laughter." Spike said.

Everyone turned to see Emerald and Spike caring snacks, along with cups of tea, water and soda. Though something was new that surprised them. What surprised them was Spike, who instead of seeing him as a dog, was now standing in front of them as a human. He was now a boy appearing to be around the same age as Snips and Snails, with the same green eyes, light purple skin and green spikey hair. Wearing a red shirt with the image of a dragon head on it, white shorts, white sneakers with a fire design on them, and a white and blue sweater.

"S-Spike? Is that really you?" Twilight stands up and begins looking over Spike's new appearance. Spike simply just nodded and strikes some poses. "How did you change?"

"You can thank Miss Emerald for that." Spike smiling at her.

"Just call me Emerald. I may have lived long but I'm far from old." She said with a smile. "Plus, it was the least I could do for a fellow dragon."

"How'd you do this?" Twilight asked curiously.

Emerald waves it off nonchalantly "When you've been around as long as I have, you learn a thing or two on auras. I simply just used some of my own to help bring back some of his own. Though I wasn't able to help him regain all of it since adding too much of my own could be bad for him."

As she and Spike put down the snacks and drinks, Spike begins to glow, which leads to him reverting back into a dog.

"Ah. I get it. Since it's not fully restored, he can switch between the two." Discord surmised with an amused grin.

"Yes. Though he can't control it yet."

"When I get the hang of this, I'll definitely be able to help." Spike said as he began concentrating. After a second, he turns human again. "I think I can get the hang of it by tonight."

"We should get some practice in on our magic too." Negi adds in. "We weren't exactly in control when we used it. So, it'd be a good idea for us to at least be able to use it."

"What do you mean?" Reiji stood up and got into a stance as his pants and shoes glowed green as magic built up into them. "See. It's ea-" The magic cuts him off as it shoots up to the second floor and crashing into some bookshelves, making books fall onto him. "I take it back. When should we start?" As he finished, one last thick book was still shaking till it tilted over falling onto his head. "...Ow!"

Connor sighs as he stands. "Alight. I say we do that now while we've still got daylight."

"Before that," Twilight speaks up looking to Discord. "What was that plan you thought of?"

Discord smiles mischievously. "Let's just say it involves you, two stolen chicken's phones," he spins two cellphones on his fingers. "and helping Sunset bring you down." The end of that sentence raised everyone's eyebrows.

Hours Later

The sun had begun setting a while ago with night soon approaching. Before the guys left to practice, Discord had gotten Twilight to do things around the Dragons Cavern in a way that was natural to her. Which ended in her being embarrassed by Discord having Ressha help him record Twilight 'in Discords words' making a fool shine and posting it online.

The group then had separated from Twilight to work on their magic. They had taken to practicing at a field close by. At first, the guys had difficulty getting their magic under control, like Reiji either almost getting trees to crush him by accidently cutting them down with the claws or crashing into branches and trunks of trees with his jumping ability.

Connor and Ressha were mostly having trouble keeping their magic going. Every time Connor made the armor form it would mostly vanish after a second. As for Ressha, he was able to produce his red magic but was unable to turn into a sword. Negi had gotten better use to his magic than the others by recovering easily from his out-of-control jumps. He ended up getting Drago and Discord to spar with him and learned how use his magic in a fight.

Emerald had been keeping Twilight company by answering questions she asked her or helped her look for books, while also having helped Spike in control his switch transformation. By the time the guys got back, Spike was easily switching between the being a dog and human. Though he did wish he could turn into a dragon again at some points.

Three hours pass by fast as they spent the rest of their time eating dinner, hearing about each other. Like Ressha's reason for having transferred to Canterlot High being wanting to start somewhere new after someone who he thought was his best friend blamed him for an incident at school that almost led to him being expelled. But thanks to him easily being pushed into things, many classmates were able to prove his friend a liar and the guy got expelled instead. Ressha's friend told him he'd get him back for what he did.

Now they everyone was comfortably sleeping in bed. Or it would be everyone, if Twilight hadn't woken up from a nightmare and decided to use the restroom. She and Spike had been placed in the same room as Emerald and was give pajamas to use. On her way back, she found the door to one of the guy's rooms open but no one was inside. Twilight decided to look around a bit. Her search led her to the roof, where she found Drago laying outside looking up at the stars. She is reluctant to go over to him at first but decides to go forward to find out being curious about what he's up to.

"H-hi." Twilight barely got herself to say, making Drago look up a bit to see her. "Um...W-what are you doing up here?"

Drago smiled and looked back to the stars. "I was just thinking about an old friend. Would you like to watch the stars too?" he asked patting a spot next to him.

Twilight smiles and lays down next to him. "What about your friend are you thinking of?"

"Just something she use to tell me." Hearing him say 'her' and seeing him smiling made Twilight feel like pouting with a frown but kept herself from doing it. "She used to tell me how she never wanted to hear me promise her anything because she didn't believe in them much. So, I did just that and went with an alternative." Drago paused a bit to chuckle. "Instead of promising her anything, I made oaths to her."

"W-what kind of oaths?" Twilight with a hint of pink on her cheeks.

"Nothing that important. Just a lot of kid things. So, why are you still up?" Her staying silent answered it for him. "I'm guessing it was a nightmare about failing to get the crown, right?"

"H-how'd you know?" Twilight asked surprised.

"Well after today, you're pretty easy to read." Drago laughs seeing her blush with a sheepish smile while twiddling her fingers together. "Want to talk about it?"

Twilight stammers trying to think of what to say before sighing sadly. "In my nightmare, we had lost because...Discord betrayed us." Drago raised a brow hearing that. "I'm sorry. I know he's your brother and you trust him, but he just reminds me too much of the Discord I know who did evil things to me, my friends, and Ponyville. He just wouldn't listen and had to be turned to stone again. He might say he's good now, but I don't think I could trust him."

"Hm...well, from what you told us of your guy's Discord, I don't think he sounds so bad."

"WHAT?!" Twilight shock shoots to her feet. "What do you mean he doesn't sound so bad? He almost brought chaos to my home, hid the elements from us, and changed my friends to their opposites. What about him doesn't sound so bad?!"

Drago stands up sighing. "We'll from the fact he was used as a stone garden ornament for a thousand years, would make anyone grouchy in my opinion. But my point is, he's just like any other per... I mean any other pony or creature; he needs to be accepted and given a chance."

Twilight stares at the floor. "I'm...not sure I can." After saying that, Twilight felt Drago pat her head. She looks up to see him giving her a reassuring smile.

"With what you've accomplished and also dealt with today, I know you can. You've forgiven a rampaging number one assistant, an evil princess, a strange zebra, and probably more either before or somewhere down the line. An overpowered joker should be easy for you, that is if you two can learn to accept each other. Just like how your Fluttershy was able to"

"Do you really believe that much in me?"

Drago grins "I give you my very oath on it that you could." The two smiled at each other for a moment before he looked away. "Not to be rude, but I don't think you make a good princess." Twilight looks away from him sadly but looks back when he chuckled. "Don't get me wrong. You're great, but I just could never follow someone else's plan."

"But Princess-" Twilight pauses when Drago gets close up to her. "Princess Celestia knows what-" Drago puts a finger to her lips silencing her.

"I'm not saying she's wrong. I'm just saying I think you could be so much more if you followed your own path and be so much stronger making your own image of what you want to be. And not just follow one that was setup for you." Drago steps back and walks over to the door a bit before looking back to her. "I know I didn't want to follow someone's image of me. I'm sure you probably feel a tiny bit the same way if anything." Drago smiles. "If you did, I'm sure you'd shine so much brighter." As Twilight smiled and blushed hearing that, Drago then yawns. "I would love to keep watching the stars with a sparkling beauty, but I think we should get some rest." He said getting up

"B-b-b-beauty?" She quietly whispered to herself holding back from turning into a tomato. "You're right. We have a lot to do tomorrow." Twilight said quickly as she straightened herself and chuckling nervously when he almost heard her.

Drago walks Twilight back to her room and wishes her a goodnight before going back to his own room. Once resting in his bed, he looked at his crystal before letting himself drift to sleep. Twilight was having more trouble sleeping now having Drago's words echoing in her head. After a while of having a tired mind, she eventually was able to rest her eyes and fall asleep a with happy smile going across her face.

The Next Morning

Everyone had gotten ready for school after getting showered and having eaten breakfast that Emerald prepared for them, with Spike also having offered his help. Emerald handed an item over to Drago before left. After entering the school and standing at the entrance, the group split up into their separate groups, leaving to accomplish their goals. As Connor and Ressha turned around a corner, where they already came face to face with Molten and the twins. The two give Molten a sheepish smile as he has a dumbfound look that got replaced with one of anger and annoyance.

"How are you alive?" Molten asked in a low threatening voice.

"What were we supposed to do again?" Ressha whispered to Connor.

"Only one thing." Connor replied back quietly. The two then punched Molten straight in the face. "Run." He said as they ran back down the hall and out the school while Molten stammered from the hit.

"GET THEM!!" Molten shouted with anger as he chased after them with the twin big guys fallowing behind.

At the Sametime

Spike having decided to stay as a dog, to keep his ability hidden in case Twilight needed his help, was hiding in her backpack, as she, Discord and Reiji walked down the hall. They took notice of many students looking at Twilight while quietly holding or hiding their laughter. Discord walking down the hall with a huge devilish grin spreading across his face.

Reiji smirks "You seem to be pleased with your work."

Discord gasps dramatically "I would never. How could I get joy from making a fool of our friend?" He ends making puppy dog eyes.

"Of course, you wouldn't." Twilight sarcastically said rolling her eyes. Twilight was about to say something but was grabbed from behind and pulled into a classroom.

"Hm? Did you hear somethi-" Reiji is cut off as he and Discord got lassoed as they stopped and got pulled into the same room.

The next thing the guys knew, they see Twilight being looked over by a white skinned girl with long purple curled hair, while Applejack stood next to them. The girl continued till she gets an idea and somehow puts a new outfit over Twilight's in a second, along with a wig. She looks over her work before nodding in approval.

"There. Amazing work if I do say so myself." The girls said smiling and holding her head up high.

Applejack deadpan. "Rarity, she doesn't need to look amazing. We just need to be able to hide her from Sunset and Molten."

Rarity crosses her arms and scoffs. "Well, she can look great while being out of sight."

"I'm pretty sure both of those don't mix." Reiji said to himself.

Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie quickly enter the room and then sigh in relief seeing Twilight.

"It's good to see you're alright, Twilight." Fluttershy said.

"Same here." Pinkie said in agreement.

"Why wouldn't I be alright?" Twilight asked confused.

Pinkie places a pink laptop with a balloon on it on a desk and brings up a website, Discord walks up to a window. "Because of this." She selected a video saying this and being loading with Discord smirking looking outside. Twilight sighed in her head knowing she's about to see an embarrassing video of herself. Except as the video started playing, Twilight, Reiji and the girls all make confused looks. In the video is nothing but a white screen which goes on for 10 seconds before ending. Twilight and Reiji turn and look to Discord who is now chuckling looking outside while eating popcorn.

"What happened to the video?" Reiji asked confused.

Applejack raised a brow. "Why are ya asking him?"

Pinkie gasps "Ishetheonewhopostedthatvideosayingthatyouweregonnabehumiliatedinfrontofthewhoschool,justtogetusallhereinordertohelpyouguysbeatsomeevilmonstersandsavetheworld?" She says so quickly everyone looks at her, barely having been to tell what she said.

"Pinkie, stop speaking nonsense and be serious about the situation. And what do you mean humiliated? The video talked about a strange man stalking the poor dear who spreads photos of her changing and taking showers." Rarity said with a stern look with her hands against her waist.

"WHAT?!" Twilight screams blushing.

"No. I believe it was about someone wanting to do horrible things to Twilight." Fluttershy said quietly.

"Ah saw Molten on it say he was gonna hurt Twilight." Applejack added in.

"Discord, what did you do?!" Twilight demanded.

"I thought you were just going to send a embarrassing video of Twilight?" Reiji added confused.

Discord looks to them. "I did send that video to the other students. As for the girls, it was a blank video that had a spell set to make them see a video that'd make them worry about her. And not an artificial worry if that's what you're thinking, viewers." He ended looking out at the sky from their point of view.

Reiji confused at the last part chuckles after considering the idea. "You devil."

"What in tarnation is goin' on here?" Applejack demands.

"That's what I'd like to know." Twilight glares at Discord. "If you were going to send something different to the girls, why'd you need my help then for the other video?"

"It was a great way to lighten up the mood of the school. Along with getting them to open up to you more easily. Besides at least my plan worked. Everyone is here." Discord said pulling out a timer.

"No, it didn't!" Twilight shouted. "We're still missing Rainbow." The girls were about to question them till Discord raised a finger to silence everyone.

"That's because she got a different video." Discord smiles.

"What do you...mean?" Twilight paused upon seeing Discord raised a hand.

Discord grinned before he began counting down using his fingers. 5...4...3...2...1 Finishing Discord points to the door that gets slammed open at that second getting everyone attention. Standing at the door with a mad look, was a cyan skin colored girl with rainbow hair. Everyone recognized the girl as Rainbow Dash. Rainbow scans around the room till she sets her sights on Reiji.

"There you are!" Rainbow shouted as she marched over to him. "You really think I'd let what you said go? Not on your sorry ass." she grabs hold of his shirt as she began leading him out. "We're going to settle this on the field."

"Wait. What'd I do?" Reiji asked as he was dragged out. Twilight looks to Discord.

"What was that about?"

Discord shrugs "What'd you expect when you trash talk someone and pronounce yourself better than them."

Twilight gave him a disapproving look but before she could scold him, he leaves walking out following Reiji and Rainbow. Twilight slaps a hand over her head wondering why she'd even gone along with his plan. She was brought out of her thoughts as Applejack taps her shoulder.

"So, why'd your friend lie to us? What exactly is goin' on here?"

Twilight sighs "Please don't be mad. We really need all your help. If you'd let us, we can explain everything." She said with pleading eyes.

"We?" Rarity questioned.

Spike jumps out and stands on a desk. "Yes. We." He says with a smirk. The girls go wide eyed with different reactions. Applejack was left speechless, Rarity faints with Applejack catching her, Fluttershy had a happy grin with many questions going through her head, Pinkie had an excited growing grin and was about to speak till Applejack covered her mouth.

"Sorry Pinkie but ah'd rathernot deal with your yammerin' and just hear it from them."

Mean While

Drago and Negi peak into classroom and look around till they spot Sunset sitting at her desk in the middle of the class. She seemed to have a light yellow skinned guy with blue hair be seated next to her right trying to talk to her but Sunset was just looking away with a sad look in her eyes.

The two look and nod to each other before facing back and waited. After minutes pasted, the bell rang and the guy sighs as he stood up and left the classroom. The two stepped in front of his path in the hall and then dragged him into the boy's bathroom. The guy broke free of their hold and lowered his eyes into a glare at them.

"Look here, I don't care what Molten will do to me, I'm not gonna let him keep using Sunset as his personal toy." Flash stated as he got into a fighting position.

Negi holds up a finger. "First off, your mistaken. Second, we've got nothing to do with Molten, besides being a pain in his ass. Third, who are you to Sunset?" The guy raised a brow at him before relaxing himself.

"I'm...Flash Sentry. I used to be Sunset's boyfriend... at least till Molten showed up. I know he's threatening or done something to her. Sure she was becoming a bit...bad, but I was helping her through it." Flash said as he lowered his eyes to the floor while kicking at the floor. "She was getting better. But then out of nowhere, she became horrible and left me for him. Usually a guy would be hurt by that but not me. When Molten first showed up here, Sunset felt something from him that made her feel sick and become scared of him." Flash looked to them. "There's no way she'd want to be near him knowing how he affected her."

"You're right. He has done something to her." Drago admitted getting Flash's full attention. "If you want to know, you can ask Snips and Snails about it. Look we can't promise you anything. But I will tell you that, we'll do all we can to bring down Molten." He silences Flash before he could say anything. "Sorry but this is something we've got to do on our own. Just leave everything to us."

Flash lowered his eye lids while raising a brow. "How do I know I can trust you?"

"You can't. Nothing I say can do that. All I can do is make an oath to both of you and Sunset." Drago smiles at the end making Flash give a confused look. No one noticed but inside Drago's pocket a red light simmered through it for a second.

At the Dragons Cavern

Hours passed and school had ended, Twilight, the girls, and everyone else decided to head over to the cafe and talk things over there. They were all seated around a table in front of the store. They were chatting around while eating snacks waiting for Connor and Ressha to get back. They had been gone for the whole time and succeeded in their plan, but worried since they hadn't heard or even gotten a message from them.

"I still can't believe how fast you are. I was barely able to keep up with you on the field." Reiji said while eating some chips.

Rainbow rolls her eyes with smirk. "Yeah right, you say that and yet you made that final score before I could. You're pretty awesome. Not as awesome as me though." She said leaning back taking a sip of her Fizzy Apple Cider.

"So, you're a dragon back in your world?" Fluttershy asked with an excited look getting a nod from Spike in return. "What are like as a dragon? Is it nice being a dog? How do you change between the two?"

"I'm not sure how to explain changing into a dog. Though being a dog isn't that bad with being able to switch. Though I do prefer being a dragon. I'm strong, powerful, and from what other ponies say, I'm hoofsome." Spike said holding out his chest proudly.

Discord chuckled "Did they laugh before or after saying it to your face?" As Discord laughed at Spike who was glaring at him with a pink blush, he changed into a dog and bit Discord's leg. "Ow! Oh, you little-" Discord jumps at him, tackling the small dog as he slid and the two began wrestling around while calling each other names. Spike kept switching between being a dog and human to break out of Discord's hold.

Fluttershy, being startled at first, began laughing with a smile. "You two must be best friends to get along that well."

"We do not!" The two yelled as Fluttershy and Reiji laughed as the two continued fighting.

"Oh!" Pinkie squealed excitedly as she and Emerald walked up to the scene with a tray of sandwiches. "DOG PILE!!" She shouted as she jumped, body slamming on top of them. Getting 'Ow!' and wimper from the two and also two giggles from Fluttershy and Emerald as Pinkie wrestled the two who are now trying to escape her.

Rarity was looking over Negi's outfit while also taking measurements. Twilight, Applejack and Drago were seated down laughing and chuckling at the scenes around them. Drago stops and stares at the entrance.

"Where are those two?"

"Do you think Molten got them?" Twilight asked.

Applejack shakes her head. "Nah. That varmint would've let us known if he did. He likes makin' a show outta those he torments."

"Why don't we go look for them then?" Negi suggested as he and Rarity sat down with her sketching inside a sketch book.

"No. If we wait long enough, I'm sure they'll-" Drago is cut off as the sound of a loud slam is heard.

Everyone looks to the entrance and see a huge smudge of slime splattered on the window of the entrance. They were about to investigate till one of the revolving doors started spinning and Connor came falling out of it. As it spun once more, Ressha came walking out of it with his chest puffed out and a huge grin across his face. Ressha's hair was spikey and red again.

Ressha makes a satisfied sigh. "Now that's what I call a good time." He leaves Connor on the floor as he walks over to the group and takes a seat in between Rarity and Reiji. "Job done. What's next on the agenda?" Ressha asks leans back in his chair and puts his feet on the table. Emerald and Fluttershy go over to check on Connor.

"Where have you two been?" Twilight asked.

Ressha chuckles "You know, distracted dumb bastards, they caught up to us, there was a throw down with ooze things appearing. But it was nothing we couldn't handle. Right, Gear?" He said as Connor dragged himself over with Fluttershy and Emerald's help.

"I...hate you...so much, Momo." Connor said between his panting with a glare.

"Gear? Momo?" Twilight asked confused.

"That's my nickname for this Ressha, since he reminds me of Momotaros."

"And I told you, I hate it!" Momo shouted standing up. "That's why I gave him Gear. Since idiot's symbol looks like a gear."

"That is a poor reason and not a good nickname in my opinion." Connor said as he seated himself. "Well, like Momo said, we did our job. But I think Molten might throw his plan into action early." Hearing this makes everyone take a seat.

"What makes you think that?" Negi asks.

"After they caught up to us, they started to fight us themselves. It got even more difficult when they all transformed."

"They all transformed?" Twilight asked wide eyed.

"Yup. Besides Molten, both big guys changed into kaiju too." Momo answered. "One turned into a bull asshole with three horns. And the other into firey lizard bastard who liked to take cheap shots." Momo noticing their deadpan looks, scoffs angerly pulling out a smartphone and slides it to Connor. "You explain it to them!"

Connor sighs as he looks and sets up a video on the phone while explaining. "What he means is one turned into the Minotauros Phantom and the other into the Lizard Undead. But they were different from the original ones. The Phantom had a beetle looking horn on the top center of his head along with armor. And some of the Undead's armor was blue with flames matching the color covering its blade."

Connor set the phone on the table with said video showing exactly how they described it. Though a bit after the three turned into kaiju, the kaiju start holding their heads in pain and after it looks like it subsided, they retreated after summoning out riotoozes.

"That's strange." Reiji said.

"Exactly. Those bastards ran like cowards." Momo said slamming his fist onto the table.

"Maybe they ate too much ice-cream and got brainfreeze." Pinkie suggested.

Rarity sighs placing a hand to her head. "Pinkie no. Just...no."

"Maybe it was that darkness yall were talkin' about." Applejack guessed.

"If it was, then that could mean trouble." Drago said.

"So, I'm guessing everyone's part succeeded? Since all the girls are here." Connor said looking around the table. "How'd you do it."

"We'll after being scared half to death by both the video and...a dog," Rarity spoke looking at Discord and Spike with a frown before turning back. Twilight and Spike explained everything to us and helped us see what Molten had done to our friendship." Rarity stopped and had Applejack continue.

"After that, we were able to forgive and make up with each other. Ah can't believe we got tricked so easily by that no-good snake."

"Hearing about how Sunset is being used and going to be sacrificed by them sounds awful. And how he's controlling her to make her hurt and trick others is horrible." Fluttershy added.

"So, we're gonna help Twilight win her crown back and send big meanie Moldy packing." Pinkie shouted at the end as she went under the table and the emerged a second later covered in armor made from kitchen pots and tools.

Rainbow punched the palm of her hand. "I'm in. I really want to get back at Molten for what he did."

Emerald walks up and places two buckets on the table. "Before that, you boys need to clean up that mess." She points to the window of the entrance.

The guys groan. "I told you not to bring that Riotooze back with us, Momo." Connor said to Momo with his voice full of annoyance.

Momo just shrugs. "Hey, I needed the enjoyment." With that said Momo's red eyes and hair reverted back, changing him back into Ressha. "H-how...How'd we get back? Weren't we being attacked before?" Ressha asked confused. Reiji walked over to him and began leading him to the door.

"Come on, bud. We'll fill you in as we clean your mess." He said as they left the girls and Spike.

"I need to talk to you guys about something." Drago whispered to that as they were got outside.

The Next Day

After the guys had a secret talk and cleaned the window, they returned to the girls and Spike to think up a plan to raise up everyone's spirits tomorrow. It took a while and some pranks from Discord, along with fights between him and Spike, but they were able to come up with an idea. Which lead to the girls sleeping over at the cafe to practice for their plan.

Straight after they arrive at school, everyone splits up and got into different social groups to befriend and get to know them. Their whole morning of school had no problems with Molten nowhere in sight, which worried them a bit. As lunch started and everyone had gathered in the cafeteria, they set their plan into motion by having Ressha and Spike come bursting into the room with a mobile Dj booth.

As everyone's attentions focused in on them, they see Connor seated in the booth and started playing a beat that signaled for the girls to start. After the girls started and had sung part of song, Twilight had been signaled to enter the cafeteria to start her part of the song with rest of the guys joining in on the song, along with Drago playing a guitar. He ended up getting back up from Flash and his friends play along with him using their own instruments. At this point everyone in the cafeteria started joining together and dancing to the beat.

Just outside the room, Sunset was watching the whole thing happen by looking through the small windows of the doors along with Snips and Snails. As she watched everyone's spirits being raised a small smile formed on her lips. Her spirit lifted up more while watching Flash play his guitar. She had almost forgotten how alive he looked when he played. A small giggle escaped her as she watched him having so much fun. Her smile turned into sad smile when she thought of how much she's hurt him along with the other students.

Sunset was beginning to think of wanting to go in and apologize till someone grabbed her from behind and quickly covered her mouth, along with the same thing being done to Snips and Snails. Sunset looks from the corner of her eyes to see Molten staring into the room with an enraged look. He then turns his rage filled glare to her as she's being held by a Riotooze.

"I've worked too hard to just let things fall apart now and let the master stay in slumber." Molten said full of anger. Behind him, Sunset could see the two big guys strap a device onto Snips and Snails wrists and then a bottle-like objects being inserted into the devices. As he pulled out the black core metal, Snips and Snails transformed into mechanical looking kaiju. Molten then raised his hand in between him and Sunset as a malevolent aura surrounded it. Sunset's eyes filled with fear and tried screaming as a coin slot appeared on her chest but was muffled from her mouth being covered. "Let's see what is born when a core metal is used instead of a cell metal."

As the song wrapped up, the group noticed Drago and Negi suddenly go still and instantly look around. Twilight beginning to worry, walks up to them. "Drago? Negi? What's wrong?"

"Something's wrong." Negi said as he clenched his hands into fists. "The area just felt like it was drowned in a dark aura."

"Sunset." Everyone heard Drago say before he ran out the cafeteria with the others following a second after.

"Drago, what's wrong?" Connor asked shouting as they ran down the hall. "Where are you going?"

"Sunset's in trouble. I can feel it. She's at the principal's office." Is all Drago shouted back as he kept running towards the office. As it came into sight, Negi senses something and stops everyone.

"Drago, stop!" As Negi shouted the office suddenly explodes sending bits and pieces of the wall and door flying. Drago and the others shielded themselves up from the blast and smoke with either their arms or by ducking down.

The second they unshielded themselves, the whole school began to shake as if they were in the middle of an earthquake. Cracks began to appear on the walls and floor as if the school was falling apart. Before they knew it the hallway was ripped apart and they were now standing in the middle of the school with the whole building having looked like it was enlarged and combined with a rocky area. They looked around to not only see floating boulders, pillars and trees, but with parts of the school spread throughout place with students either panicking or freaking out. They look to the center where a dark spiraling void on the floor can be seen. Sunset was kneeling down in front of the void wearing the crown with her eyes completely black, as dark green magic pours out from the crown and into the void.

"What's going on?" Rarity asked staying close to everyone as they look around the area. "What is this dreadful place?"

"This is probably inside the realm of the seal." Everyone goes wide eyed hearing Discord said this and he sets his sights back on Sunset. "We need to..." Right then a small army of Riotoozes spawning from the ground ahead of them. "I mean...you girls and Spike are gonna have to stop the seal's destruction."

"What? And let you guys have all the fun?" Rainbow smirks cracking her knuckles. "Not a chance." Connor puts his arm in her way.

"This not up for debate, Rainbow. We're on a time limit. The only way to stop it is with you six."

"But we can't just leave you all." Applejack protested.

"You're not. We're just splitting up the work." Negi assured her.

"Now you go do your part and we'll do ours." Reiji said smiling.

Discord looks to Spike. "Think you can handle having their back?" Spike responds by changing into human form with a determined look.

Ressha's magic activates on its own making Momo mind take his place. "If that's all settled," Momo cracks his neck as he forms his red sword. "then let's kick some ass." He shouts as he charges forward along with the guys following. Twilight, Spike and the girls watch them begin fighting with worry in their eyes.

"Will...they really be alright?" Fluttershy asks.

"I'm not sure." Twilight admits sadly but then hardens her face into a determined look. "But we can't let them down. Let's go." Twilight says with the girls and Spike nodding in agreement as they ran towards Sunset. Twilight knees down in front of Sunset and reaches to touch her should but gets zapped by the magic. "Ow! I should've known that was bad. idea."

"What should we do then? Dump a bucket of water on her?" Rainbow asked sarcastically.

"Oh! I see a bucket. We just need water." Pinkie said pointing to a floating bucket.

"Pinkie. We're not going to pour water on her." Rarity scolds. Then looks to Twilight. "What can we do, Twilight?"

"We have to try to reach out and bring her back to stop this. I'm just not sure how." Twilight answered.

"Does anyone have any suggestions?" Spike asked.

"Maybe I can help with that."

Before they could all react, a dark green spell circle appears underneath them. They look in the direction the voice came from and see Molten and five other kaiju. Three they already know but the other three are new. Two of the monsters look both mechanical and organic. One having a needle face and the other being round with a flamethrower right arm. The last kaiju is a red flaming looking humanoid bat with black armor, wings on its back acting as a cape and wing looking blades on both its wrist.

Applejack quickly pushes Spike out of the circle before it fully activated, making all the girls fall to the ground unconscious. "Twilight!" Spike yelled. He was about to run to them but stops and avoids a paw that swung at him. Walking in front of him is a stone manticore with glowing red eyes. "Oh great." Spike runs as the manticore chases him. Molten chuckles darkly before looking towards the guys fighting and growls with anger.

"This time, they won't leave with their lives."

Momo runs through a crowd of Riotoozes, while doing both dodging and slashing some of them. "This sure is the life. Now if only- Hey!" Momo yelled the last part after avoiding a ball of blue fire. He looks forward and see the Lizard Undead emerging from the crowd of Riotoozes "Lizard bastard! You and your cheap shots again. I'm gonna have to beat some sense into you." The Undead stays silent as it gets into an attack stance holding the blade on its arm out towards Momo. "Alright then. LET'S GO!" Momo shouted as the two charged at each other.

Connor used his rabbit armor to jump above the Riotoozes and switches to his tank armor to blast them to bits with the cannon arm. As he lands, he remembers something. "Now I remember. They're the Oozemen from the power rangers movie. But why are they...hi." He says to the needle face kaiju before he quickly ducks avoiding needle quills having been shot at him. "Didn't think we'd also have to deal with a Needle Smash." Connor begins running and using the Riotoozes as shields as the Smash launched quills at him.

Reiji was now running and dodging a stream of flame being shot at him as the second monster was after him. "Come on! You can do better than that! Aren't you a Burn Smash for a reason?" He yelled at it as he continued running. As for Discord, he was using cotton candy to hide and move between as he attacked the Phantom and teleported to a different spot to repeat the process.

Negi was fighting a couple Riotoozes by blocking and then countering hits with punches or kicks. When they tried to attack him all at once, he uses his magic to jump up high to avoid their hits and then uses a pillar to launch himself back at them while doing a sweep kick that smashes through them from the power of the kick. He looks forward and sees more of them forming. "They just keep coming." Before they formed, two streams of fire blasts through them and goes straight for Negi. He quickly jumps up top of a floating bolder and looks down to see Molten.

"I'm gonna pay you back for what you did to my hand." Molten ends with a growl.

"To be fair, you asked for it." Negi said smiling.

Molten roared with anger as he shot flames at Negi, who kept dodging by jumping on to different objects till he uses a boulder to launch at Molten. Molten just blasts it to bits with his fires but as soon as he did that, Negi comes flying out of the smoke and kicks Molten square in the face.

After Drago splatters a Riotooze, he looks over to the girls and sees them lying on the floor, He's shocked and worries wondering what happened. When he sees that they're still breathing, he relaxes a bit but decides to run over to them. When he's half ways to them, he stops upon hearing a screech and looks up in time to roll out of the way of the bat kaiju swooping down to attack with its blades. Drago looks up at it to see what it'll do next till he notices a glow on it. He squints trying to see what it is and as it hovers in one spot for a second, he sees a sun mark on its chest that resembled the one on Sunset's shirt with the black core metal in the center of it.

"That can't be good." Drago told himself as it was coming in for another attack. He quickly pulls out one of his crystals with his left hand. "I really hope I'm wrong." He says as he gets his right arm into a chop, holding it across his chest as it becomes covered in a blue transparent aura. Drago dodges the kaiju's blades as it flies by him and swings his right arm across its chest, causing it to get a large cut on its chest.

"AAAAAAHHHHHH!!" A pain filled scream is heard along with the bat kaiju's pained screech. Drago turns to the source and sees Sunset hold her chest in pain.

"They're connected." Drago looks back and forth between the two. "Unless the girls can free her, we can't destroy this kaiju or Sunset's body will die along with it."

Twilight, Sunset and the girls have been watching everything happening. They're floating up in the sky, looking like phantoms from them being transparent. They watch helplessly as the guys start losing ground in their fights. Momo getting hit after dodging fire, Connor and Discord beginning to be cornered, Spike was holding on for dear life on the back of the manticore along with avoiding its tail, Reiji being pinned behind a pillar by stream of fire, Negi getting burnt on his arm a bit and then getting kicked through a wall by Molten, and Drago as he only continues to dodge and block the bat kaiju's attacks.

"Come on guys! Don't let them push you around!" Rainbow yelled out.

"Things ain't looking too good for them." Applejack said clenching her fist as she can only watch her friends fighting and risking their lives.

"Can't we do something to help them?" Rarity asked worried and hopeful.

"Nope." Pinkie shouts as she passes through them. "I thought ghost could do a lot of fun things." She said annoyed

"We aren't ghosts." Twilight answered. "Our minds have just been separated from our bodies, so they can be used to sync the negative energy." She looks at Drago as he starts getting some cuts on him.

"This is my fault." All the girls look over to Sunset who's crawled herself into a balling with tears streaming down her face. "If I'd just gone back to Equestria, none of this would've happened."

"Why didn't you? Um...that is...if you don't mind tell us." Fluttershy asked. She doesn't respond. But they do see her staring down at someone. They follow her gaze and see it led to Flash who along with other students is helping keep some Riotoozes back.

Rarity an all-knowing smirk. "I knew you still liked him. I guess the rumors must've been true about Molten doing something to make you leave him."

Sunset sighs "Kinda. But I was mostly left him trying to keep Molten from hurting him. Though...I ended up just doing that myself. And then Molten took control of me that same day. I know both worlds would've stayed safe if I'd just left. B-but...I couldn't bring myself to...disappear without telling him anything. I...just didn't want him to hate me." As she cries into her knees, Sunset feels a hand pat her head. She raises her head to see Twilight giving her a sweet, understanding smile.

"He knows you had your reasons and were hurting the most. That's why he's been trying so hard to try reaching out to you." Twilight embraces her into a comforting hug. "No matter what you do, he'll never give up or hate you. Because just like your feeling for him, he loves you." Sunset buries herself into Twilight's embrace as she cries. The girls smile kindly at the sight and then float over and join in the hug to comfort Sunset.

Each of the guys are throw to the floor, each of them now at different parts of the school. They each either struggle to stand back up or just lay on the floor hurt. Except for Spike who's still fighting the manticore as Flash began helping him. As Molten walks up to Negi and chuckles at the sight before him, he radiates a dark aura and then sends it out as a wave across the whole area.

"This has been the most annoying, yet also greatest fun I've had." Molten's voice is heard to all the guys. "You've done well to be a thorn in my ass. But unfortunately for you, you've come to the ends of your ropes. You can now see your limit compared to us and now see your place." Drago clenches his fists along with grinding his teeth together. "You all never stood at chance at stopping the master. At least you'll get to take your failure with you to the hell." Molten and the other five kaiju prepare to finish them.

Each of the kaiju get surprised and much to Molten's annoyance, each of the guys now filled with more frustration and determination begin standing up giving the kaijus in front of each of them a glare.

"I might not know the guys that well considering I barely met them not that long ago." Drago says mostly to himself. "But I can say for certain, they'd never allow themselves to be beaten. Especially not me when I've made an oath."

Flash Back

"What's your full name? Or is it only Flash?" Drago asks.

""I'm Flash. Flash Sentry. Why?"

Drago smiles and holds his fist out to Flash. "I will rid this place of Molten and free Sunset from her pain no matter what costs me. This is my oath to you, Flash Sentry."

Flash looks back and forth between Drago and his fist a bit. He then looks to Negi who just gives him a nod. Being reluctant at first, Flash bumps his fist with Drago's and smiles after sighing. "Then I'll trust you. Please help her."

Flash Back Ends

"We may only have been chosen as candidates, and we may not be heroes like the Riders." As Drago spoke, he and the others stood back on their feet. "But just like the Riders, we won't ever let darkness toy and feed on the suffering of the innocent. Not while we're here. This is my oath to you." Glows of light start radiating from every one of the guy's pockets.

"THEN BE GONE!!" Molten shouts as he and the kaiju fire their attacks at them.

As the attacks were about to hit, the Rider items fly out and shielded them from the attacks. As they flew back, the items became energized and the known Rider items regaining their original colors along with the symbols on five's hands becoming clear images of the Riders symbols.

As for Drago's image, it cleared into the skull of a rex with the back of the skull being pointed. The crystal landed into his hand but had changed into a clear red color with the fang having been replaced with the image of a rex head asnd the top of it being silver. The symbols then appeared in front of their waists and the Riders drivers materialized around them.

The driver Drago had was mostly in an obsidian black color, a silver rex skull on the front right side along with a red hammer piece of a gun on the side of the belt. The left side had silver outlining the front edges of red transparent lens in the same shape as the rex crystal with the back of it being an empty slot. The middle has a clear crystal looking tube with silver coloring the top and bottom edges, along with a DNA strap inside the tube with one side of it being visible. The strap of the belt was red with silver running along the sides.

"We've...been accepted." Drago said to himself. He could just tell and feel the others were accepted as well. "Then let's not disappoint the riders." He said with a renewed determined look.

"Then let's get this started." Discord said with a grin. He inserts the Decade card into the driver. (Kamen Rider.) The belt announced with a standby noise being made and end then ended when he closed the driver as he shouted "Henshin!" (Decade!) Ten gray silhouettes surround and converge on him making him appear in a black armored suit after. Cards then came flying out of the belt and sunk themselves into the helmet becoming a part of it, which made colors appear on the armor making it mostly salmon pink with some white. The eyes flashed green which completed Discord's transformation to Decade.

"Decade!" Minotauros Phantom roared summoning out his Bull Axe.

"May the chaos begin." Decade said as he converged the card case attached to his side into sword mode and charged at the Phantom.

Momo tossed the pass up and caught it. "Looks like you'll the first to see my cool transformation." He pushed the top red button on his belt causing a jingle to play. "Henshin!" Momo shouted. As he swung the pass over the belt, the jingle stopped and said (Sword Form) Momo gets covered in light shards which leads to him being in a black and white armor with a silver track going from the back of his head to down his chest, two gadgets were on both sides of his belt. Armor then formed around him and attached to his chest and back, red replaced the silver color that was on the top part of his leg. A red peach appeared on the back of the head which then grinded to the front to split into red insect like eyes with the tips extending out towards the back into antenna and golden tracks covering the silver between the eyes, which completes Momo's transformation into Den-o.

"If I remember right." Den-o said as he points to himself. "Ore...Sanjou!" He shouted as he got into a pose. Den-o then connected the four gadget pieces together into a formation making a handle with a red blade extending out to complete it as a sword. "From start to finish, I'm at a climax." He the rushes at the Undead and Riotoozes.

Connor smiles to the now red rabbit and blue tank bottles. He then shakes the two bottles in his hands before twisting the tops and placing them into the Build Driver. (Rabbit! Tank! Best Match!) The belt rang out as it played its jingle. Connor turns the crank making the jingle stop and then manifests two plastic model kit looking constructs in front and behind him, with a red armor forming in the front construct and a blue one in the back. "Henshin!" Connor shouts after having gotten into a pose and then straightened himself at the constructs slammed together with the armor on him now. (Fullmetal Moonsault, Rabbit- Tank! Yeah!) The belt said completing Connor's transformation into Build as the suit has segments of it being red and blue with black in between, the bottom of the left leg had a white spring circling around it, with a rabbit foot print at the bottom of the left foot and tank treads on the right. The helmet's eyes were in the image of a rabbit on the left side and a tank on the right. "I'll solve theformula to this problem." Build said as he ran his hand along the rabbit side of the eye. The Needle Smash points to Build and the Riotoozes charge at him after roaring.

Reiji grinned as he flipped the taka, tora, and batta metals into the air and catching them before inserting them into the slots of the OOO driver and tilted the belt diagonal. He then grabs the scanner from the side and ran it over the metals making rings matching the metals colors over them and putting himself into a pose. "Henshin!" Reiji straightened out holding the scanner over his chest. (Taka! Tora! Batta!) The belt said three rows of coins hovered around his head, chest and legs before settling on the same three metals and converges them into one coin. (Ta-to-ba! Tatoba! Ta-to-ba!) The coin moves to Reiji's chest forming a mainly black armor on him, with the coin on the chest having the three animal images of the metals in it with hawk on top, tiger middle, and grasshopper bottom with a gold yellow ring circling around them. The helmet has the image of a red hawk with its wings spread out on it, the wrist and hands being yellow with three bladed claws folded up on the wrists along with yellow tracing up the arms and circling the shoulders leading to the chest, and the legs having green trailing from the bottom of the grasshopper image all the way down to green boots. This completed Reiji's transformation into OOO. "You've had your fun. Now it's our turn. I shall judge your greed.

Negi smiles. "Looks like round three has started. (Jump!) The hopper progrise key stated.

"NO!" Molten shouted as he charged at Negi.

(Authorize!) The Zero-One drive said as Negi pressed the key to the right side of the belt. Right when Molten got near, a giant transparent yellow mechanical grasshopper appears falling down from the sky and tackles Molten, sending him flying through a wall. The hopper started hopping around Negi with a jingle playing as a flat digital image of the suit formed in front of him. He poses as he flipped the front part of the key out. "Henshin!" He yelled as he inserted the key into the right side of the driver. (Progrize!) The belt said as the front of it slide to the left making a circle in the middle with the image of the hopper in the middle. (Leap to the rise! Rising Hopper!) The digital image passed through Negi having formed a black suit on him with a bit of silver and red lining it and the hopper jumped and separated into 8 pieces. (A jump to the sky turns to a Rider Kick.) The pieces turned into streams of yellow data onto the suit turning into yellow armor on the legs, chest, back and face, The face resembled the hopper with to pointed antenna in a 'V' shape with red insect eyes finishing Negi's transformation into Zero-One.

Molten bursts out of the rubble with flames spreading around him as he glares at Zero-One. Zero-One points a finger at Molten. "It's time you paid for the hurt and pain you've caused." He got into a fighting stance as Molten roared at charged towards him.

Drago stared at the crystal for a while in his right hand as writing for vowing oath in kanji can be seen on it. "Tyranno Alpha Core." He says to himself but is brought out of his thoughts by the bat kaiju screeching at him. Drago stared eye to eye with the kaiju as he held the red crystal out towards it.

"I won't fail on keeping my oath to them. Not now. Not ever." Drago pushed the silver top part of the crystal making it shout (Alpha Tyranno!) and making an adapter key shoot out the other end. He then inserts the key end into the top of the tube part of the belt. (Infusion!) The belt calls out as the other DNA strap turned red as a guitar sounding jingle plays and an obsidian wall with a tyranno skeleton on it comes out of the ground behind him. Drago then strikes a pose holding both his arms out crossed in front of him. "Henshin!" He yells out as he inserts the now known alpha core into a slot on the left side and then pushes it down causing the jingle to stop. The wall to breaks into pieces engulfing and circling Drago as red light coming out the creaks out from in between the pieces and as it said (Core Blaze! Stomp! Slam! Roar! Alpha Tyranno!!)

The pieces burst off at the end revealing an obsidian black colored armor with some parts having a knight armor looking theme on the wrists, shoulders, chest and bottom part of the legs. A silver skeleton ran along the side of the legs, the back, shoulders, wrist and back of the head. The back of the hand had rex skeleton claw and the foot had the skeletal foot of a rex. The inner parts of the armor, fingers and insect like eyes were red. A silver zig zag line ran along through the eyes making the shape of fanged teeth as it showed the silver tyranno skull bit down on the head and left the middle top part of the helmet covered in silver along with silver knight-like mouth guard forming. Flames seep out from the armor as Drago looks over himself and clenched his fist. The eyes glow for second as a vision of the armor enters his mind and then looks to the bat kaiju as the vision ended.

The bat kaiju's eyes turned black as it spoke in a possesed voice."Jurassic."

"That's right. I'm Jurassic." Jurassic gets into a pose holding his hands close to him in a claw position. "Kamen Rider Jurassic!" The bat kaiju screeched as the two charged and tackled into each other.

To Be Continued

Author's Note

Sorry it took me so long to finish this. It turned out to take a bit longer because I actually changed the story a bit. There was originally only supposed to be 5 Riders at the berginning but I felt a sixth was needed to help the story out a bit. Sorry about that I hope you guys like this chapter.

Chapter 1 Part 3- Battle's Conclusion and Darkness Beginning

Canterlot High School

Everyone was still trapped in the seals realm with the school being torn into pieces with each piece being alternated a bit. The guys had been losing a second ago while fighting the kaiju and Riotoozes. But now, Twilight and everyone were watching with amazed and speechless looks at what had and is now happening. The guys had transformed into Kamen Riders and are now fighting on equal ground with the kaiju.

"W-what...just happened to them?" Fluttershy asked as Decade dodged the Phantom's axe as he slashed down two Riotoozes behind it with his sword and then blocks the axe as he saw it when he faced back to it.

"They've...become Kamen Riders." Twilight answered.

"Kamen what?" Applejack asked confused but smiles as she watched Zero-One uppercut Molten under his jaw. "Well, whatever they are, ah sure do hope they give that snake and varmints a good beatin'."

"Who care what they are." Rainbow said as her grin widened watching the Riders easily beat down Riotoozes while fighting the kaijus. "THIS! IS!"

"AMAZINGLYTASTIC!!" Pinkie cheered.

Den-o runs chasing the Undead around the front of the school as it's mixed with a rocky field, with Riotoozes following after them. Den-o clashes blades with the Undead a couple times before ducking under the next and running past him to slash down some Riotoozes as he goes down a straight line. He then grabs a hold of one swinging at him to headbutt it and then use it as a shield to block a blue fireball.

"Hey! Lizard bastard, I told you no one likes a cheap shot." He shouted as he charged back towards the Undead while blocking and deflecting fireballs it shot at him. The Undead then tries to get Den-o by surprise as it grabs a boulder and throws it at him, and then prepares to strike. "I ain't that easy to fool!" Den-o shouts as he slashes the boulder in half, like the Undead predicted.

What the Undead didn't predict as it swung its blue flame covered blade, is Den-o not having been slowed down from it as he tackled straight into it before the blade came near him. As the Undead recovered from the tackled and brought up its blade to swing again, Den-o brought out the pass and ran it over the belt again. (FULL CHARGE!) The belt announced as energy is sent from the belt to his right leg charging it with power. As the Undead brought down its blade again, Den-o swung the charged leg into it as a kick and breaks the blade as they made contact.

"It's my turn now." Den-o stated as he swung his sword at the Undead, causing sparks to fly off it with each hit. As the Undead stammered back, Den-o runs up to it and swung his blade into an upward slash, sending it flying back and rolling along the floor with sparks. As he walked up to it, he's stopped by Riotoozes surrounding him as the Undead gets up to run away. "Oh no you don't. I already said, from start to finish, I begin at a climax. Den-o said as he passed the pass over the belt again. (FULL CHARGE!) "Now tastes my special attack" The blade of the sword goes shooting off and hovers around as the blade follows the handle's movements. He swings the floating blade into a circular motion slashing through the Riotoozes around him, then thrusts the handle forward towards the Undead, making blade follow it and hitting it straight on its back. Den-o then sends the blade along with the Undead into the air as he swung the handle upward. "Crown Version!" He shouted as the blade left the Undead in the air going past it and then swings the blade downward, making the blade slash through it before slamming into the ground.

The Undead and Riotoozes all explode at once making an explosive crown shaped ring. The blade then flew back and attached back onto the handle. Den-o sighs satisfied "Man, I'm so much cooler than Rainbow."

"Hey!" Rainbow shouted, though he couldn't hear her. Without Den-o noticing, a bottle flew out of the explosion and landed across the floor from him.

In a mix of multiple classrooms, Decade gets sent flying back with sparks flying off him after the Phantom had hit on him with its axe. He rolls to a stop and stands on one knee as he faces the Phantom. "Is that all you have to offer, Decade?" Minotauros says mockingly.

"Not even close." Decade said as he opened up his belt before changing the sword back into a card case and pulls out a card from it. "Let's see if this satisfies you." (Attack Rider. Invisible!) The belt called out from him having inserted the card into the belt and closing it, which he then turned invisible.

"What?" Minotauros surprised as it goes on guard looking around. Minotauros begins getting slashed at all around its body before stammering back. As it turned around, Decade reappeared in front of him and drop kicks Minotauros, sending it flying back and falling flat on its back. Minotauros quickly got up to shoot fireballs from its hand. Decade dodges the first ones as he turned the card case into gun mode before putting another card into the belt and closing it. (Attack Rider. Blast!) Transparent images of his gun appear around it as he aimed it at Minotauros. Decade first shoots all the fireballs before shooting at Minotauros with all the shots sending many sparks fly off it. "DAMN YOU!!" Minotauros yelled standing and then charging at him. Decade waited a bit before jumping to the side to dodge but as soon as he did Minotauros pointed his head towards him as its horns extended, hit Decade and pinned him to a wall after slamming him into it.

"Agh!" Decade shouted. Minotauros then dragged Decade up the wall with sparks flying before he's flipped over it and falls slamming onto the floor.

"You're mine now, Decade." Minotauros stated as it extended its horns towards him. Fluttershy gasps thinking he's about to get killed. Decade's eyes glow a second and makes him grin under his helmet.

"Not even close." Decade says with confidence as he opens the driver , takes a card out from the case and tosses it into the belt before closing it. (Kamen Rider. Agito!) Decade's belt creates a bright light while making a motorcycle noise. When the light ended, Decade's armor had changed to a black and silver suit with a black clear round rectangle piece at the center of his chest, pointed shoulder armor and has gold covering most of the chest, wrist, knees, ankles and going along the center of the face. The helmet looked more insect now with 2 horns coming out the top of his head and has red eyes.

Twilight and the girls go wide eyed. "HE TRANSFORMED AGAIN!!" They shouted as Decade waits till the very last second to move to the side turning himself towards the horns and readied his right fist. As the fist glowed with light, he then swings his fist forward and easily breaks the horns off. Minotauros stammers back and then stomps his foot on the ground in anger. "DAMN YOU, DECADE!!" Minotauros roared in fury as he brought out his Bull Axe and charges at Decade. Decade responds by opening the driver again as he then pulled out another card from the case.

"Such a hot head bull." Decade then tosses the card in the belt and closes it. (Form Ride. Agito Storm!) A spiral swirl appears around him changing the chest armor blue, the left arm gained blue armor with the shoulder having changed into a bigger round shape and a pole arm weapon, also known as the Storm Halberd flies out of the center of the belt. As he took a hold of it, the pole extended out into a staff with blades also folding out at both ends. As Minotauros swung the axe at him, Decade blocks the attack with the staff and then pushed the axe back to swing the staff to slash the Phantom across the chest making sparks fly.

"How many transformations does he have?" Rainbow asked out loud as Decade kept easily using the Storm Halbard to hit Minotauros axe to the side as he then proceeded to hit and slash the Phantom. (Attack Ride. Halberd Spin!) The belt called as Decade put a card into the driver and closed it. As the Phantom was going to go for another swing, Decade start twirling the staff around, along with moving it side to side creating whirling vortex around him. As the Phantom brought the axe down, Decade used the vortex to hit the axe out of the Phantom's hands and then hits it with multiple slashes making multiple sparks before sending it rolling along the ground..

Minotauros slow gets up and shoots fireballs at Decade. He just uses the staff to hit the fireballs to the side and then throw the Storm Halberd like a spear at Minotauros, hitting it dead in the chest. "You've failed, Decade." Minotauros said trying to stand up again. "The master will awaken no matter what you Riders do now."

"It doesn't matter if your so called 'master' gets freed." Decade said as he reverts back to his first form, pulls and holds two cards in his left hand and the card case in sword mode in the right hand. "As long as the Kamen Riders are here, your master will never have his way." (Attack Rider. Slash!) The belt had said when he put one of the two cards in it and closed it. Transparent images of the sword's blade appeared around the sword. "What matters most is the bull is gonna become seasoned steak." Decade goes charging forward at the end.

As Minotauros tries to guard using his Bull Axe, Decade's slashed it in half as it was swung downward and then slashes it 3 times before running past him with a slash, bringing Minotauros to his knees. "Now for the final shot." Decade said as he turned around opening the belt and closes it after putting the second card in. (Final Attack Rider. D-D-Decade!) A row of large versions of Decades cards appears between him and the Phantom. Decade jumps up into air with one end of the row following him as Minotauros stood up and turned in time to see him.

Decade goes flying through the row in a kick position and kicks Minotauros before it could do anything. Decade lands on his feet as Minotauros goes sliding across the floor till coming to a stop and exploding. "Now that's a nice shot. Hm? Decade had said looking at the picture of him Rider kicking Minotauros till he noticed a progrise key fall next to his feet. He picks it up and sees an image of a hercules beetle on it. "And a prize too."

In the soccer field, OOO got a Riotooze into an armlock as he kicked three others across the chest, then sweeps its legs out from under it to easily swing and throw it into a group of them. "Who knew OOO could have so much fun." A group of Riotoozes run up to him and fire blasts of dark purple energy from their mouths at OOO. The blasts seem to hit, creating an explosion that covers the area in smoke.

Though as the smoke clears OOO is nowhere to be seen. The Riotoozes look around for him till they hear a someone whistle, they look up to see him standing on a floating boulder and waving a hand to them. "The goal is lined up. Now for the score." OOO does a backflip to get himself behind boulder with both feet planted on it, he kneels as his legs and batta image glow green filling with power for a second before he uses the boulder to jump back a good distance, while also sending the boulder forward crushing the Riotoozes as it ran over a goal post.

"Goal! Woah!" OOO avoids a stream fire and looks to his left to see the Burnt Smash. "Oh great." OOO jumps around to dodge the flames, along with Riotoozes shooting blasts at him. OOO hopped on some of them, squashing them and unfolded the claws on his arms to rip some others apart as he either ran or hopped past them. "I need to think of something before I...Wait!" OOO lands and quickly pulls out the pegasus and horse medals before continuing to avoid the fire. "Now's good enough time as any, to test these out.

OOO tilted his belt back up and pulls out the tora and batta metals to replace them with the new ones. OOO tilts the belt again while dodging the flame, then grabs the scanner and runs it over the belt. (Taka! Pegasus! Horse!) The tiger image on the chest changed to a pegasus, the color of the armor changed to lavender, the shoulders changed to a lavender lightning bolt going along the edges and around the shoulder, the elbows gained a feather shape and design, while the wrist armor became a cloud shape. The batta changed to a horse image, with the color changing to magenta. The armor changed to look more like armored boots with branch designs engraved on it and the foot looking like hooves with a root design at the bottom of the foot.

"Wow. Now this is amazing." OOO looked over his new look for a bit in amazement before looking back to the Smash. As the Smash shot flames at him again, OOO jumped back but instead of landing on the ground, big, long pegasus wings grew from his back having a cloud look on the joints and a lightning shaped feather tips. OOO grinned from underneath his helmet before he flies straight at the Smash. "Wahoo!" OOO yelled out in excitement as he flew at high speed, using the hawk helmet to see and help him maneuver past the stream of flames. OOO began circling around the Smash creating clouds around it, which then the clouds started spinning into a cloudy tornado and winds on the inside lifts up the Smash into the air. As it reached the top, OOO made a dark cloud above the Smash and then stomps above it to send a powerful lightning bolt at the Smash, sending straight back to the ground. While it was still laying on the floor, OOO flew straight down towards it with the legs and horse image glowing. OOO then land on the ground stomping his feet on top the Smash's flamethrower, crushing its arm weapon with sparks flying.

The Smash stood up enraged and starts swinging at OOO, who easily avoids the attacks while countering with a couple powerful kicks. Then he jumps up reeling both his legs in before delivering two strong kicks making sparks fly off its chest. The Smash stammers back and then fires multiple shots of fire after recovering from the kicks. (Tatoba!) OOO's belt announced as OOO jumped away from the shots and landed on the bleachers. "This has been amazing. Though it's time for finish." OOO used the scanner over the belt again. (Scanning Charge!) "Now I'll you the true strength of desire."

OOO got into a pose as energy built up in the armor, as the smash shot fire at him again, OOO's legs turned into hopper legs as he jumped high up avoiding the shots and then launched himself forward towards the kaiju with both his legs in a kick position. OOO went through three rings, that each shrunk around his legs, and hits it dead center of its chest. "Seiya!" OOO yelled out as the Smash is sent flying back. When the Smash landed, it exploded with the image of three rings in a row. a bottle then came falling out of the smoke that OOO quickly noticed and caught. The bottle was red with the image of a firetruck on it. "A Build bottle? Hm...Is that Snips?" OOO sees the Snips laying were the kaiju blew up. "I was wondering where he and Snails went."

"These bastards are starting to get annoying." Den-o said to himself as he strikes down Riotoozes but stopped he heard someone scream out. Den-o turned to see Flash knocked out on the floor with the stone manticore in front of him, but that wasn't what worried him. He got worried when Spike got in between it and Flash. "Chibi dragon!" Den-o was about to run to help but was blocked when Riotoozes got in his way. "Out of my way, you assholes!"

Spike shivered as the manticore got closer to him. He looks behind himself to look at Flash, along with Twilight and the girls bodies who are a bit further back. His face hardens into a determined one and turns back to glare down the manticore while holding out his arms spread out acting as defensive wall. "I won't ever let my friend be hurt. Not when I can do something about it." Spike said to it.

Everyone whether Spike could hear them or not screamed his name in worry. As the manticore pounced at Spike and he braced himself, the bottle on the floor near Den-o light up with blue flames surrounding it and shot off the ground as a burning Chinese dragon, that flew ramming through Riotoozes as it made its way and tackling into the stone manticore, sending it sliding back. It circled around Spike before shooting itself straight into his hand. Spike looks at the object his hand and finds a bottle like Build's with the image of a dragon on it. "What is this?" Spike mostly asked himself as the stone manticore started getting up.

OOO slashed down Riotoozes before turning to Spike. "Spike! Shake that bottle while clenching it in your hand! It should help you!" OOO yelled to him. Spike nods and did as he said. As he the shook the bottle, OOO got surprised from seeing not only just blue flames but green flames as well. As the manticore jumped at him again, Spike closed his eyes and swung his right fist with the bottle in it at the manticore. The second the burning fist made contact, a huge burning impact on its chest that shattered it to pieces.

"That was amazing." Spike said to himself panting not noticing the shards lift up and are about to fly at him. Final Attack Rider. D-D-Decade! "Huh?" Spike barely noticed in time for the shards to be taken out by a huge red energy blast and then looks to his right to see Decade with his gun pointed towards the direction the shards were at.

"I have to admit, I really underestimated you. We sure did choose the right dragon to leave the girls protected." Spike smiles hearing this. Decade notices something. "Watch out!" Decade gets in front of Spike and uses his arm to shield him and Spike from needle quills.

"D-Decade! Are you okay?" Spike asked worried seeing the sparks fly off Decade's arm.

"I'm fine. It was nothing. Although-" Decade and Spike look to the direction of the attack and see Build still fighting the Needle Smash and looks to the bottle in Spike's hand. "I think Build might need that bottle."

Build is running around the cafeteria dodging the needle quills of the Smash. "I really need to think of something quick." As he dodged the next attack, Riotoozes tried attacking him but Build jumps over them and lands kicking one that came running up to him. "If only I could use Build's weapon. I gotta keep mov- Oh shit! Build was about to move but two Riotoozes grabbed and held on to him, keeping him in place. Before Build could do anything. the Smash took this moment to attack him, running up to Build with quills extending out its arm and then swings its quilled arm across hitting the Riotoozes and Build in one hit.

"Build!" Twilight and the girls screamed out as Build was sent falling on his back with sparks flying off his chest.

Build got to his feet. "At this rate I'm not gonna last long."

"Build!" Build turns to see OOO yelling to him. ""Here!" OOO tosses the firetruck bottle to Build. "Put it to good use!

Build catches the bottle. "It's worth a try. Build shakes the bottle and twists the top. (Rabbit! Syoubousya!) The belt announced as he replaced the tank bottle with the new bottle and cranks the lever. "Build up." A short jingle played as the blue tank side is replaced with a red fire truck design with his left arm having a firetruck ladder looking like a small cannon, the chest to shoulder had a firetruck design, along with the tank eye also being replaced with a firetruck. "This could help." Build pointed the ladder cannon at Riotoozes charging at him and shoots at them with water, knocking them over. Some got close to him but Build quickly jumped up and as they looked up at him, he pointed the cannon down at them. The cannon shot fire instead of water and burnt them all to ash. As he lands, Build quickly moves out of the way of quills. "I'm not gonna be able to beat it from a distance,

"Build, try this!" Spike shouted getting his attention and throws the bottle to him. Build gives him a nod, after catching it and shaking the bottle before twisting the top.

(Dragon! Tank!) Build cranked the lever and the armor changed as he said "Build up." The tank side returned but the rabbit was replaced with blue armor that had white on the right shoulder and around his ankle, and the rabbit eye was replaced with a dragon head. "Alright. Let's go." Build said as he charged at the Needle Smash. It shot quills at Build, who quickly counters it by making a blue fireball and lauching it. The fireball easily blasts through the quills and hits the Smash dead center on its chest making sparks fly. Build had reached the Smash as soon as it got up, then he gave it a couple jabs before igniting his fist and punched it sending it flying back.

(RabbitTank! Yeah!) The belt announced as Build had switch back to his first form. "The laws of victory have been set. Build declared as he cranked the lever again as the Smash was standing, jumps backwards onto landing on a floating lunch table with spring on the left leg coiling in, and two white energy dotted line hill charts appear on both sides of the Smash before converging in on each other and hold it in place. (Ready go! Vortex Finish! Yeah!) The belt called out as the spring sprang forward, making Build jump to the top of the chart and then goes sliding down it with the tank leg in a kick position with red and blue power radiating around him. When the kick made contact, the treads on his foot started moving to grind on its face and breaks off its needle-like nose as he shot past it.

As Build landed on the ground behind it across the room, the Smash fell over before exploding. A bottle comes flying out of the explosion that build noticed and quickly catches it. He looks at the white bottle and sees the image of a hedgehog. "Oh. Another best match I could use." Build hears a groan and looks to see Snails lying where the Smash exploded. "Hey, Snails.

Around an extended gymnasium room, Molten falls on top of a table breaking it in two. Zero-One with yellow lines of light, that shoot off his body, propelled him forward as he jumped all around the area dodging and avoiding stream of flames from Molten, along with hitting him a couple times. After the kaiju got back up he glared at Zero-One with anger. "Stand still you coward!!" Zero-One then, having used his momentum, grabs onto Molten's arm while wrapping his legs around Molten's head and brings Molten slamming down onto the floor having him in a lock.

"Like I'd listen to a moldy jack-ass." Zero-One releases the lock to roll out of the way of a stream of fire and then before Molten could attack again, Zero-One then leapt forward kneeing the kaiju in the face as he got up.

"You damn fucking insect!! Molten roared out in anger as he resumed shooting flames at Zero-One. "I'll burn down this whole school to ashes, if it means you'll be dead at the end."

"Then I better be straight forward." Zero-One right then goes straight at Molten, he crosses his arms in front of himself to shield himself as he breaks through the streams of flames.

"WHAT?!" Molten being surprised, reacted too slow as Zero-One had broken through the flames and then jumped at him landing a couple powerful kicks on Molten's chest. Molten growled before taking a couple swings at Zero-One, who dodges them and avoids each strike. He ducks under the last strike to jab at Molten's chest, before repeating the process of dodging and delivering different hits at Molten. But as Zero-One jumps up and kicks Molten across the face. Molten grabs on to his leg and then places the palm of his hand against chest. "BURN!!" Molten hits Zero-One point plank with his stream of fire that pushes Zero-One back a couple feet. As Zero-One recovers, Molten ignites his arms on fire which the flames begin to compress, he then swings his arms forward crossing them and sends two spiraling claw rings of fire.

Zero-One crosses his arms together to guard against the attack as it hit." Gaaahhhh!! He screamed as the claws exploded and sends him flying into the front of the stage. "Okay. That...wasn't such...a good idea." He said as he shook off the pain on his arms and Molten charged at him.

"Heads hup!" Decade throws the progrise key to Zero-One as soon as he looked his way and as soon as he caught it, pushed the button on it. (Strong!) Zero-One then slides the left side of the belt back into the front and taking out the hopper key. As Molten roared approaching, Zero-One pressed the key against the belt. (Authorize.) Before Molten could get near, a giant transparent lime green colored mechanical hercules beetle came flying from the side, grabbing Molten with its horn, then swings and throws him back across the room.

(Progrize!) The belt announced when he inserted it and the image of the hercules beetle in the circle of the belt that slide open. The hopper face split in half and move to the sides of the helmet, the upper parts of the chest separated and move to the arms while the bottom moved to the sides of the waist and moved to the sides of the leg. (Rough! Strong Hard! Amazing Hercules! With mighty horn-like pincers that flip the opponent helpless!) The beetle separated into 6 pieces and broke into streams of data that turned into lime green armor on the now open spots of the suit. The new armor chest looks stronger and tougher, the shoulders look like a beetle shell and are pointed at the end, the top front part of the legs resemble the pincers of the beetle, and the new face resembled the beetle with the eyes now being orange.

"Okay. Now, let's try that again." Zero-One said as he began walking towards Molten, which made the kaiju growl as he sent the claw rings again. Zero-One guards the same way with his arms crossed again but this time, he held them back with ease and then sends them flying to the side as he swung his arms apart. Molten roars seeing Zero-One just continuing to walk towards him and then charges at Zero-One. As Molten swung his claw, Zero-One easily blocks it with his left arm alone, which he then uses to wrapped around Molten's arm and used his right to send powerful jabs at the chest that makes sparks with each hit. As Molten stands from having been thrown rolling to the side, Zero-One walked up to him and hits him with two fists. He grabs ahold of Molten, lifts him up and then slammed him into the ground as he swung him over himself. "Up you go!"

As Molten stood, Zero-One upper cuts him into the air and then pushed the key. (Amazing! Impact!) The hercules horn on his head extended, used them to grab Molten in the air and then slammed him into the ground across from him as it had built up with power. (Rising Hopper!) Molten looks up to see Zero-One back in his first form and stand in place. "I told you Molten, you'll pay for what you've done. Now for the crimes you've committed and people you've hurt, 'we' the Kamen Riders shall pass judgement on you.

"I DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT YOU THINK!! I REFUSE TO LOSE TO WANNABE HEROES!!" Molten roared in fury as he began building and compressing fire into the palm of his hands and mouth. Zero-One responds to this by pressing the hercules key onto the belt a couple times. (Bit-Byte-Kilo-Mega-Gigarize!) "I'LL FRY YOU TILL THERE'S NOTHING LEFT!!"

Zero-One points a finger at him. "There's only one who can stop you." He said as he pushed the hopper key. (Rising! Giga! Impact!) Right then Molten unleashed three huge streams of fire at Zero-One, that burns the ground as it heads towards him. Molten grins when he sees the flames reach him and seems to engulf him, but he loses it when he sees Zero-One slide up to him underneath the fire. Before he knew it, Zero-One quickly jumped up kneeing Molten in the gut and sending flying high up into the air. "And that's me!" Zero-One then jumped his way upward against floating rocks and debris towards Molten. Upon reaching him, Zero-One begins hitting up and down continuously with punches and kicks, keeping him in the same spot in the air for a while till he punched Molten straight to the ground.

Molten shakenly looks up to see Zero-One launch himself from up in the air towards him. As he's descending towards Molten, Zero-One puts himself into a kick position with the image of a large transparent yellow hopper leg around it. "ZERO-ONE!!! (Rising! Giga! Impact!) The second the kick made impact, there was a shock wave that's followed by a huge explosion, Zero-One then jumps out of it a second after. As the smoke cleared, Zero-One turns back to catch a falling item before looking back towards the creator to see Molten stand slowly back up. "This isn't over, Zero-One. Not by a long shot." Molten said in a low threatening voice as he limped back and got swallowed up into darkness, glaring at Zero-One before disappearing.

"I kind of figured he'd say that. But...I wouldn't have it any other way." Zero-One said to himself, which he then looks at the item in hand. In his hand is a crystal like the one Jurassic has but smaller one that's a clear silver color with a fang in it. "Though I don't liking them having Rider items one bit."

"Yeeha! Now that's the beatin' I was talkin' about!" Applejack shouted cheerfully.

"Yeah, you're tell me. I mean, did see how fast Zero-One was? It was so awesome!" Rainbow shouted.

"They may be waiting winning but," Rarity looks to Jurassic who is only dodging and avoiding the bat kaiju attacks. "Jurassic hasn't done anything."

Fluttershy looks to the scene with worry. "That's because he can't. Or it'll hurt Sunset."

"We need to do something. Who knows how much more longer Jurassic can last." Twilight said and then turns to Sunset. "Sunset, do you have any ideas on how we can break the connection?"

"Yeah! Like any spells? Prayers? Or magical scissors?" Pinkie asked out loud appearing next to Twilight, starling her doing this.

"No. I'm sorry." Sunset admitted sadly. "I don't think...Wait. You all figured reversing the negative emotions to good by changing my heart would cancel it out, right?" The girls nod. "But at this rate even changing me would do no good."

Rainbow raised a brow. "Then what do you suggest we do? Give up?"

"No. What I suggest is we follow their example." Sunset said motioning to the Riders. "They are examples that good people, bonds of friendship, and the need to help others can be answered from anywhere. If we use what's left of the element's magic to reach out, the other elements might respond from Equestria."

"What good would that do?" Applejack asked.

Sunset floats next to Twilight. "If we could get the elements to understand what we need-"

"Then they could transfer the good emotions from Equestria to here." Twilight said excitedly. "Sunset, that's brilliant!"

"Then how do we do that?" Rarity asked.

"Follow my lead." Sunset said as she flew down towards the crown with Twilight and the girls following. Reaching the crown, Sunset has Twilight hold out the front of her hands toward the crown. "Focus on wishing. Wishing for the elements to answer our wish to help save our friends and loved ones by showing the light that can come from others' emotions."

Twilight follows Sunsets words and begin to focus; the girls decide to do the same by circling around the crown while holding out their hands to it. As the focus sending their wishes and prayers to the crown, the Element of Magic begins to glow softly along with the girls.

Within the Crystal Empire

A while ago, the mirror's reflective surface had begun to darken with a dark green looking void appearing in it. Now the princesses were looking at the mirror with both shock and horror, while Twilights friends were holding back Rainbow Dash from flying into the mirror.

"Let me go! We need to go help Twilight!"

"And do what, Dash? We don't even know what'll happen if we go in now." Applejack tried reasoning.

"Yeah! You could end up in Smallville! Or Townsville!" Pinkie yelled and gasps. "Or maybe even the Dome City of Corinth!" All the girls stop to look at her with confused looks. "What?"

Rainbow shakes her head. "Then what are we supposed to do? Twilight probably needs us and were just here sitting on our sorry flanks waiting."

"Rainbow dear, we all feel the same way. But you know Twilight would never want us risking ourselves on this without knowing what could happen to use." Rarity answered. "All we can do is-" Rarity is cut off as a bright flash of light blinds them. After the light died down, the girls found themselves outside the crystal castle now and look down at their necks to find their elements now around them.

"Our elements?" Fluttershy asked bewildered. "Are they trying to tell us something?"

Fluttershy's question is answered when the 5 elements began to glow and shoot their light towards the Crystal Heart. The heart spins faster as it glows brighter with more magic with the whole kingdom glowing along with it before a beam of light shoots out from it and begins circling the castle. After circling several times, the light flies into the castle and going straight into the mirror startling the princesses again, who were trying to figure out what happened to Twilight's friends.

Canterlot High

As the fight was continuing, a beam of light came flying out of the statue and flies going by or around the fights till it reached the crown. The light gets absorbed into the crown and light begins radiating from the gem of the crown. The girls' bodies began to glow and float syncing themselves with their transparent selves. The moment they synced, the girls were back in their bodies as their hair grew longer with it tied in the middle making it look like they had a pony's tail, grew pony ears, while Twilight, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash gained wings.

The girls continued to focus as the light built around them and the crown. The light the illuminated the whole area in a bright light that turned the realm into a mixture of light and dark that started to make the school slowly start bringing itself back together. The bat kaiju stopped its attack on Jurassic as it clenched its chest and screeched out in pain.

The black around the core metal in its chest started to crack and break off. The core metal had become completely light gray with the image of a bat in it and lead to Sunset waking up back in her body with the crown still on her head. Sunset looked herself over before looking to Twilight and the girls who are smiling at her. "We did it!" They all shouted.

Sunset then goes wide eyed. "Flash!" She screamed in worry seeing Flash passed out on the floor next to a tired Spike and runs over to them.

"Spike. Are you okay?" Twilight asks him with worry in her eyes, while Sunset rests Flash's head on her legs as she checks him for any injuries.

"Yeah. Just tired out. That bottle really drained me." Spike said as he smiles. "I say I deserve a whole bowl of ge-" Spike is cut off as they covered their ears from the bat kaiju screeching at them with rage as it charged at them. They were scared of what was about to happen to them till Jurassic slid in front of them and punched the kaiju square in the chest, making sparks fly off it as it flew back.

"Now I finally fight back." Jurassic cracks both his knuckles. "No need to hold back anymore!" Jurassic shouted as charged at the kaiju as it got up. Jurassic held out his right arm, clotheslining the kaiju and drags it along as he continues running. As the school was returning to normal along with it returning back to their world, Jurassic runs straight through a couple walls till he gets outside of the school parking lot and tosses the kaiju into a parked car. The bat kaiju screech after getting up and charging straight at Jurassic, with him doing the same.

As the two are about to collide, Jurassic slid past him and tried going for a sweep kick. The kaiju flew up that second avoiding the kick and soars around the sky. Jurassic looks up in time to see the kaiju swoop down to attack him with its blades and avoids it close to a second. The kaiju repeated this a couple times missing some and getting Jurassic twice. "Okay. I've had enough of that trick." Jurassic said annoyed as he waited for the kaiju to come in again as he proceeded to lift up and bring down the crystal's slot twice. (Slam!) The belt announced as Jurassic ran up to it be jump up. As he got higher than it, a red transparent rex tail formed behind him. Which he then flipped forward in the air to bringing the tail down on the kaiju and slams it straight into the ground. Jurassic brought the slot up and down again as he landed. (Stomp!) He runs up to the kaiju as red transparent rex feet appear around his leg and begins kicking the kaiju multiple times, sending sparks flying with each hit before striking it once with the tail. Then he wraps the tail around it as he swung it and threw it through a couple trees.

Jurassic is about to charge the kaiju again, but the kaiju unleashed a sonic screech at him that causes him to stop in tracks. "AAAAHHH!! " He shouts out in pain while holding hands on the side of his helmet. The kaiju charges up to Jurassic and uses its blades to slash across his chest, making sparks fly off his chest. The girls, Sunset, Flash, Spike, the students and teachers watch the battle as the kaiju uses its screech to keep Jurassic from moving and attacks him with its blades. Twilight runs a bit forward when she sees him fall to one knee.

"JURASSIC!" Twilight yells out to him making him turn his head to see her from the corner of his eye under the mask. "Don't you dare break your oath." She shouted out to him as the girls join Twilight by her side.

Spike ran in front of them and shout to him. "Don't let it push you around!"

"Yeah! Don't let that clown one up you!" Rainbow shouted encouraging him.

"Come on, Jurassic. You can do it!" Rarity cheered.

"That's right! Show that overgrown flyin' rat who's boss, Jurassic!" Applejack added.

"And try to be careful too." Fluttershy said in a soft shout.

"Finish this so we can party!" Pinkie shouted cheerfully.

Flash and Sunset nod to each other before to Jurassic. "COME ON, JURASSIC! " They shouted cheering for him. As they cheered, little by little students and teachers started cheering for him. Barely having been able to hear them through the screech, Jurassic smiles under his helmet, slowly stands himself up and he pushed the hammer on the right side of the belt making guitar noise. (Flaming!) The belt said as he then pushes the slot up and down 3 times. (Roar!) He then took a deep breath making mouth guard glow a bit and then unleashing a powerful red aura roar that overcame the kaiju's screech and caught it on fire when the red aura hit it causing everyone to cheer happily.

Jurassic roared as he pushed the hammer twice making guitar noises 2 times. (Curshing!) The belt called as he run up to it and red crystal grew over the rex claw and foot on his armor. The kaiju's left blade broke off by his left crystal knuckle as it and Jurassic both swung their left arms at each other and then hits the kaiju with a couple jabs sending it stumbling back a bit. As its going to swing its right blade, Jurassic jumps up to spin and swings a kick to counter. As the crystal foot broke the blade, Jurassic reels back his right leg after land and then thrusts it forward sending it flying back.

As it recovers and got up about to fly, Jurassic pushes the hammer 3 times. (Bite! Red crystal fang blades grew from his arms and legs. The kaiju tried flying up, but Jurassic jumped up after it and slashes his arms down over its wings, making the fang blades rip through it and fall back to the floor. As soon as he landed, he attacked it with 3 kicks, send sparks flying each hit, then brings his arms down crossed on top of its shoulders and then pulls them down in a crossing manner ripping into it, then making an x-shaped spark as he spread out his arms and sent it rolling back.

As the other Riders each finished off the Riotoozes, Jurassic glared at the kaiju from under his helmet as it got up. "You're a creature born from the dark greed that was put into a girl. A physical image of something she never wishes to be. By my oath to her, I'll rid this world of you and bring back light to her heart. I'll restore the light of her core!" Jurassic shouted the last part as he lifted the slot up and pushed the hammer causing a guitar jingle to play, before he pushed the slot down. (Flaming Crushing Bite!!) As the belt shouted this, Jurassic jumped high up as fire built up around him and then put himself into a kick position as he descended towards the kaiju.

It tried countering with its sonic screech but as the attacks held each other in place, the flames built up around his leg and forms the head of the rex. Jurassic then pushed through the screech and the rex head hits as the kick landed. As Jurassic lands facing away from the kaiju, the flame rex head dragged the kaiju back a bit before biting down on it and causing it to explode. Jurassic catches the bat core metal without turning around and looks at it before to Twilight, Spike and everyone else. He keeps staring till he sees Sunset smile to him with tears in her eyes and nods to him as thanks.

Jurassic looks to both his sides seeing each Rider walk up next to him and nod to him. After he throws the metal to OOO, he turns towards where the explosion was and then puts his right hand over his chest. "Extinction." Jurassic said to himself as he ran his hand across his chest in a claw motion.

Hour Later

After the school was full restored, Jurassic and the other Riders disappeared without anyone noticing to undo their transformations. When the girls found them, they looked exhausted and a little sore but still great. They got to rest while Twilight and everyone gave the crown back to the principle and got help from the other students to fix the Fall Formal. But the guys' rest ended and got exhausted again when they ran away from Rarity and most of the girls as they chased them through the cafe. As they were caught and tired together, Rarity took their measurements and got started on making them suits for the dance.

When the guys had gotten to the dance, they were wearing just their regular outfits. They had let Rarity have her fun in making them suits but decided not to wear them since they just wanted to rest for the remainder of the day. Though she didn't let Drago, Discord and Ressha go without, in her words, a more shining look. Drago's new look had him wearing a crimson red shirt with the Jurassic symbol on the front, black pants, red and black shoes with sliver fangs design on the side of it, and a black sweater with a red skeletal image going up the spine, continuing going around the shoulders and down the arms with silver outlining it.

Discord's new look was a shirt with multiple different animal prints on it matching the mix of animal parts and color that the Equestria Discord, black pants with card like designs going down the leg with different random chaotic images in them, sneakers that are a cotton candy pink color with chocolate milk looks rain image on it, and a salmon pink colored leather jacket with a black image shape of the Equestrian Discord circling the Decade symbol.

And Ressha was grateful for his looking normal. His was just a white shirt with the symbol of Den-o at the top corner right, light brown pants, black and white shoes with red rail lines on the bottom side, and a white unbutton shirt with a black checkered square line outline on it. As a bonus, she also made a black sweater with neon yellow for Negi. Which he was happy to wear for the night.

The guys had just been sitting on the sidelines watching everyone and just feeling glad seeing everyone have fun and enjoying the dance. They had also gotten a great surprise when they found a sign next to the Fall Formal one saying, [THANK YOU KAMEN RIDERS!]. The guys were also glad that they used up most of their energy because it meant Discord was limited to what he could do and didn't have to worry about him.

Spike had also been hanging around with them for a while, talking about each other's hobbies and what it was like being heroes. Though the guys told him they were confused about that since he was a hero too from how he protected Flash and the girls. This made him happy. That is till he got asked to dance by a red haired girl who said she's part of a club called the Canterlot Movie Club. He was about to refuse but the guys made him go with her saying a hero should learn to have fun and enjoy the little things. At first, he seemed really nervous but after a while, he seemed to have start having fun.

"You guys seem to be enjoying yourselves." They got spooked and look behind them to see the source of the voice. There they find Sunset Shimmer standing next to Flash Sentry. Flash was just wearing a normal suit with a blue vest and white undershirt. As for Sunset, she was wearing a long black sleeveless dress with gold trimmings, black high heels with gold outlines on it, a black headband with an image of the sun on the left side, and gold wristbands with a flame design on them. The beauty that came off her made Connor and Ressha's jaws drop, making her giggle and Flash giving them a smirk. "I'll take it that I look nice."

"Nice is an understatement." Ressha admitted.

Reiji holds out his fist to Flash. "She's definitely a keeper." He then leans next to his ear. "Try not to mess up getting her to go out with you again and get her to love you back." He whispered to him.

"You and me both." Flash answered as he fist pumped with Reiji.

"What are you guys even doing here on the side? You should be celebrating with everyone." Sunset scolded them while smiling.

Discord scoffed. "You try using magic and transforming to fight kaiju and annoying grunts, then tell me if you still have the energy to do something."

Flash raised a brow. "Did it really take that much out of you?"

"Yeah. Kinda." Connor answered. "I think it was mostly from not being used to it. Plus, we had used a lot of magic before transforming. Both seem to use stamina and using a lot of magic or staying transformed can be a burden."

"I see. That could be worrying." Flash said.

Negi waved it off dismissing it with a smile. "Nah. It should be fine so long as we train and build up our strength." He then leans back in his seat and crosses his arm. "Besides, we're new here. Who'd we have to dance wi-" Negi gets cut off as Applejack pulls him out of his seat along with the other girls getting the rest of the guys.

"Come on, ya lazy heads. Don't you think you've rested long enough?" Applejack asked as she pulled Negi to the dance floor.

"Yeah! Look at Spike. He was tired too and he's already ready to party. So get moving!" Rainbow pointed out as she shoved Connor.

"I regret having Spike go now." Discord whispered to Connor.

"W-would you please...enjoy the dance with everyone? I-I'm...everyone would be...h-happy if you all joined." Fluttershy asked hiding her face behind her hair. "T-that is if you don't mind. Or you don't ha-"

"We'll do it." Discord quickly said stopping her. "Just stop making that face." He said with him and the other guys looking away from her.

'I told you Fluttershy could convince them." Rarity whispered to Applejack.

"THEN LETS PARTY!!" Pinkie screamed out cheerfully as they made their way to the dance floor with Flash and Sunset following. Everyone that is except Drago and Twilight who watched the whole thing. They then turned to each other.

Drago sighs and then smiles to her. "When do you think Flash will realize Sunset already loves him?"

"Hm? That's a good question." Twilight ponders but then looks to Drago. "Though what about Sunset? Do you think any of the other students will forgive her? Or she'll learn to forgive herself as well?" She asked worried a bit.

Drago seemed to think about it for a couple of seconds before shrugging with a smile. "Who knows. Maybe one day. She'll have to work her way into gaining their trust. But I don't think that should matter." Twilight looked at him questioningly before he continued. "It shouldn't matter because that'll just come within time. For now, she should just learn to enjoy herself and work to bringing out the core of who she wants to be. If she can do that, I'm sure everything else will work out. Don't you agree."

Twilight nods smiling. "I think you're right. It's always more enjoyable to be able to show your true self to your friends." Twilight gets surprised for a second when Drago holds out his hand to her.

"May I have this dance, Twilight?" He asked winking at the end making her chuckle.

Twilight takes his hand. "I'd be glad to." She answered with a smile.

The two walked to join the others and enjoyed the dance, which had been a lot. Especially when Twilight had accidently started dancing like a pony. See her embarrassed made his laugh but he decided to put himself on the spotlight as well by copying her but then also mixing in steps of dancing like a rex. The two laughed and enjoyed the dance copying each other, along with having fun with everyone till it was time to announce the Princess of the Fall Formal. To no one's surprise, Twilight won without any problem. Along with the fact Sunset withdrew from the running. At the end of the dance, the group went the school's statue and said their goodbyes. As the portal closed behind the two, an idea came to Drago that made him grin.

The Crystal Empire

The second Twilight and Spike came out of the portal, they were brought into a big group hug with Pinkie nearly crushing everyone in the hug. Twilight was really happy to be back home with all her friends and family that she almost didn't notice everyone gasps. Her and Spike were confused and a bit worried why they were looking at them with such shocked looks and with their eyes wide open.

"Is...something wrong?" Twilight asked.

Fluttershy slowly pointed a hoof at her back. "T-Twilight, w-what happened...}

"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR WINGS?!" Rainbow questioned shouting.

"What?!" Twilight panicked turning to the mirror.

Twilight quickly looked herself over, even using the mirror to help, and found no wings on her back. She kept checking herself over to make sure and tried reaching over to feel if they were invisible. Everyone was confused and were asking Twilight questions.

"So, that's how you look as a pony."

Everyone gets startled and turn around to see a dragon who looked strong and powerful despite being their size with gray scales had a red underbelly and three rows of fins going down his back with the middle being red and the sides being black. He also had clear crystals coming out his body. Everyone backs away from the from the dragon and keep their eyes on him till a silver veil appeared behind him. Right then, a draconquus they all knew came out of the veil making some of them sigh in relief of look at him annoyed.

"Interesting place. Could use some improvements though." Discord said to himself looking around till he stops on Twilight and everyone else. "You all look pretty neat for ponies. Right, Drago?"

"Yup. Though I'd wish they'd stop looking at us like that."

Everyone raised a brow to his odd behavior. Fluttershy then walks up to him. "Discord?

"Yes, but not the one you know." As he said this, 4 others walked out of the mirror surprising everyone but Twilight and Spike smile knowing who they are. There were two ponies, a changeling, a wolf and a dragon. One of the ponies was a unicorn with a light purple coat, a long messy black mane and tail with a red and blue streak through the middle of them, a cutie mark being Build's symbol. The second, is an earth pony with a dark grey coat, a silver mane and tail with three different colored strips in the front, and OOO symbol as his cutie mark.

The changeling was actually different from the others. This one doesn't have holes in his legs, his shell looked like it had a silver shine to it, had a hercules and stag beetle horns on his head, and had Den-o's symbol where a cutie mark would be for a pony. The wolf was light gray with a neon yellow scarf that had the Zero-One symbol as a pin.

The dragon smiles at Twilight and Spike. "Hey guys. You forgot this." He holds out a picture of the whole group at the dance.

Twilight holds the picture in her magic. "Thank you." Her friends then walk up to her.

"So, Twilight, who are...'these' fine gentle creatures?" Cadence asks with an all-knowing smirk along with Rarity.

Twilight blushes. "N-n-nothing like that. T-they were part of the reason I was able to get my crown back."

"In that case, I cannot begin to thank you all enough for all that you've done for us." Celestia said smiling to them. "Who are you, if I may ask?"

"I'm Drago. These are my friends Connor, Negi, Reiji and Ressha. And this is my brother Discord." Drago said surprising them.

"Me and my sister didn't know that Discord had a brother?" Luna admitted.

Discord smirks. "I'm pretty sure there's a lot of thi-" Drogo hit the back of Discord's head. "Ow!"

"Be nice." Drago said sternly. "I'm sorry about my brother. I'm sure the one here causes you a lot of headaches."

Rainbow scoffs. "You have no i-" Rainbow was cut off too when Twilight hits the back of her head. "Ow! What was that for?"

"You should try being nice to him." This surprised everyone when they heard Twilight. Twilight smiles and points a hoof to them. "They're also mine and Spike's new friends too. They're also now heroes of their world. They're known as the Kamen Riders. If not for them, I don't think we would've been able to win."

"What are you talking about? We just took care of the pests. You're the ones who stopped seal from breaking." Drago said motioning to her and Spike. "You two and the girls did the harder part of the work. Regardless, it was a team effort. Though it was great having met you two. I feel like we kind of learned a bit more about each other's worlds." Behind them the rest of the guys started talking to Twilight's friends.

She nods smiling. "Yeah. I agree. Which reminds me, I've got to definitely start looking for those portals when I get the chance to."

Drago chuckles. "By the way, I thought you said you were an alicorn." He said confused. "Where are your wings?"

"We were wondering too."

"Maybe these are the reason." They heard Discord say and turn to see Equestrian Discord hold out the three pink core metals while holding Reiji back as he tried reach for them with his hooves.

"Of course!" Twilight shout in realization. "That's why these are like ponies. They absorbed all my alicorn magic and abilities into them and changed themselves into these while turning me back into a unicorn."

"Then will you change back it we break these coins or something?" Rainbow asked. Twilight looks to the metals for a few seconds before answering.

"Maybe. But I don't need them back."

"WHAT?!" Everypony shouted.

"B-but Twilight, you're a princess." Cadance said.

"No. I'm not." Twilight looks to Celestia. "I don't mean any disrespect princess. All I ever wanted was to learn as much as I could about magic, along with any other knowledge or history I came by. But I never wanted to be an alicorn. That was something you chose for me. If I'm going to be an alicorn, I want to choose it for myself." Twilight then turned to Drago and the guys smiling. "Just like how the new friends I've gained were put into the position they're in now and chose for themselves to become heroes of their world to help save those who are hurting or need someone to reach out to them to help."

Twilight turns to her teacher who's giving a happy yet also sad smile. "I'm really proud of you, Twilight. No matter what challenges you face or how much you already know, you and your friends always seem to grow more stronger and gain more light to shine upon others,"

Twilight frowns sadly as she looks to the guys. "I just wish I could've done the same for them." The guys go confused till Twilight uses her magic to make the image of a black stone with red markings on it. "What is this?" Twilight asks Drago. "I saw you guys speaking to each other outside the cafe while show them this stone. What's special about it?"

Drago sighs as he looks to the floor. "I was hoping you didn't see that." He then pulls out the same stone from the image out from behind his back but as he shows it to them, they see its shattered into pieces. "This is a stone that Emerald helped me find and make. This stone represents the state the darkness is in. It was supposed to break in half and turn to dust if the seal was broken."

"What does it mean if it shatters then?"

"It means the darkness has now awakened inside the seal. Meaning the darkness and kaijus will try anything to free it now. Which means our world is about to get even more hell happening in it."

Twilight's gets worried. "Will you all be okay?" She gets her horn flicked by Discord.

"You should be more worried about your world and let us worry about ours." Discord said grinning.

"B-but-"

Connor cuts her off as he steps forward. "You don't have to worry, Twilight. We've got this covered."

"Plus, we know just about all of the Riders original powers and some of the monsters." Reiji added in.

"And unlike how the Riders mostly had to fight on their own, we're all here and can work together to fight as a team." Negi says as he looks to his friends with a smile.

"I...may not be as confident as them," Ressha admitted. "But I know if we stick together, we'll be able to defeat anything the darkness will throw at us. Or at least get there any difficulty."

Twilight smiles hearing their confidence and belief. "Then if you ever need help, you'll always have allies here."

"The same goes for us." Drago said. "After all, we are friends and heroes who can back you up."

"I think it's time for us to go. Who know if something interesting might happen back home." Discord says with a grin.

You're right. We should-" Drago stops seeing the Equestrian Discord stare at him with a sad smile. "Is something wrong?"

"No. I just almost thought you were my brother when I felt your presence. Though I should've figured he'd still not want anything to do with me or anyone still."

Fluttershy walks up to her friend and puts a hoof to mismatch draconiquus paw. "Discord. Is your brother made at you?" Equestrian Discord just nods sadly.

Drago gives him a kind smile. "I'm not sure what happened with my Equestrian version of me here, but I'm sure he probably misses his family. So, if you can reach out to him, you might be able to be a family again." Equestrian Discord gives him a surprised look. "Besides, with friends like them" Drago looks to Spike, Twilight and her friends. "Or at least 3 friends, I'm sure they'd be happy to help you."

Equestrian Discord sighs. "I'll think about it. I'm not sure if anypony here is ready fo-"

"I think they are!" Twilight happily shouts but then blushes when some of the others gave her surprised looks and other half give her an all-knowing smirk. "I-I mean...I'd be happy to help i-if you want." Everyone laughs while she hides her blushing face.

"Hey Spike." Connor called getting his attention. "Catch." Connor throws a bottle over to him. Spike caught it and saw it was the dragon full bottle. Spike being surprised looked up to Connor. "From what happened, I'd say the bottle chose you to entrust its power to. So, I'll entrust it you too. Plus" He pulls out a second dragon bottle. "The original is too power to use as a best match like in the show. So, I had Emerald help me make this copy but with a more leveled energy that I can try to tune later."

Spike smiles. "Thanks. I won't let you down, Connor!" He said happily out loud while saluting.

Connor nods to him before looking at everyone else. "It was great to have to meet you all but it's time for us to go."

"Now don't be strangers, you hear me Twilight and Spike." Reiji said grinning.

"Yeah. You can count on us visiting again." Spike said smiling.

Ressha nods as he turns to the ponies. "And if we're ever here, I hope you'll give us a tour of your guy's' world."

"After helping our dear friend Twilight, we'd be glad to." Rarity said happily. "I'll even make you each a special outfit as thanks." The guys sweat both nervously and frightened hearing this.

"We'll have to think about that." Ressha said scratching the back of his head.

"I'll throw you all a huge party!" Pinke shouted.

"I'll be glad to help by caterin' the party." Applejack added.

Rainbow Dash flies up to them. "I'll give you guys an airshow showing off my awesomeness."

"That'd be awesome. You better keep your words on that." Reiji said.

"Yeah. You're not just saying all this to be nice, right?" Discord added. Then Negi and Drago smacked the two in the back of their heads. "Ow!" The two yelled.

"Don't be rude." Negi turns to the girls and gives them an apologetic smile. "Sorry about the two blockheads. We'd be happy with anything you girls could offer. Even if it's just a tour of your town."

"I-it's okay. We're...kind of still getting use to Discord." Fluttershy said but then quickly turns to the two. "I-I'm sorry if that-" The two put a finger to her mouth.

"It's alright. No harm done." The two Discords said at the same time. "Jinx! Double jinx! You owe me a chocolate milk rain over Celestia!!" Right then they both snapped their fingers making cotton candy clouds over Celestia and drizzling down chocolate milk rain over her. She sends them an annoyed/angry glare at the two Discords. "Two minds think a like!" The two shouted to each other. Drago sighs as he grabs Discord by the tail and throws him into the silver veil. "Woah!" Yelled the Rider Discord as he flew into the veil.

"And that'd be the good thing of having the me of here around. He'd be able to help keep Discord in line." He then turns to the guys. "Well, time to go boys." The guys nodded in agreement as they start leaving into the veil one by one saying their goodbyes.

"Drago." Twilight called getting his attention. "You all take care of yourselves okay. I won't forgive you guys if you lose and give up to the darkness."

Drago chuckles as he holds out his fist to her. "Then I'll make an oath that I'll never give up if it means that it'll make others suffer and bring sadness. You can count on us."

Twilight smiles to this and gives him a hoof/fist pump. "I'm glad to hear that. Good luck protecting your world, Kamen Rider Jurassic."

Drago smiles. "To you as well, the Bearer of the Element of Magic." As he walks over and is about to go through the veil, he stops to look back at her. "And good luck finding and helping Drago of your world. I have a feeling you two will get along great." Twilight blushed as red as a tomato and glares at him as he and everyone laughs at her reaction. "Hey, you never know. It could happen." At the end of this, he left going into the silver veil that then started to fade till it disappeared.

The girls and Spike walked next to Twilight looking where the veil was before looking to her. "Will they really be alright with this darkness. No offence to them, but they didn't seem the hero types." Rainbow said.

Spike grins at her. "You have no idea how wrong you are."

"Yes. They're the Kamen Riders after all. Though if I had to choose" Twilight turns away from her friends to look at where the veil had been. "I'd call them The Knights of Harmony."

To Be Continue

Author's Note

I'm gonna try to make any future chapters shorter so I don't have to separate them into parts. I hope you enjoy the end of this chapter and look forward to the next. Which I'll try to work on as fast as I can. I'm kinda slow. So sorry if I take a while to publish the chapters.

Chapter 2- Blaze and Arsenal

Author's Note

I put '[Cue Opening]' as a fun addition since I usually listen to an opening when I think of the story to try and image it like an actual Kamen Rider series. So, I thought it'd be fun to suggest it. You can use any opening or song you think fits it.

Also, I realized I got two things for OOO and Decade a bit wrong. So you might notice the small corrections I did. Just to give ya a heads up.

Chapter 2- Blaze and Arsenal

Canterlot High

It has been a couple days since the battle for the seal. Everyone in the school either still talks about the battle and the Riders or just continue on with their school lives. Some of the students were curious who the heroes were and where they came from. Which kind of made the guys confused since they thought that everyone would be able to tell it was them since they had the symbols on their clothes.

The guys had been doing their best to adjust to school life, along with having started training on building up their strength. Truthfully it was mostly to help train Connor and Ressha to fight with or without magic. Which had left the two wishing the Riders powers would've also given them knowledge on how to fight. Though now they were about to leave school for the day, walking down the hall to go help at the animal shelter like they told Fluttershy that they would.

Reiji sighs feeling bored. "When is the darkness or Molten gonna make another move? Ever since we started practicing, I've been dying to get into another fight."

Negi chuckles smiling. "Don't let the girls hear you say that. Besides Rainbow and Pinkie, the rest of the girls would rather have the days stay peaceful."

"Especially with Fluttershy. Since we're going to be helping around the shelter today and tomorrow." Ressha added.

"Plus, not all of us knows how to fight." Connor answered with a deadpan look. "So, I'd rather keep the week as normal as possible."

"Can you blame me? Having become OOO was awesome." Reiji said as he pulled out the unicorn and bat core medals. "Then there's still the two medals I haven't used yet."

"I'm surprised you didn't try using the pony combo during that fight." Connor pointed out.

"Hey! I may be eager to fight. But I'm not an idiot. Combos aren't to be taken lightly from how they can tire and strain someone."

Drago grabs the medals from him. "I can pretty much guess how unicorn is gonna go for you. But are you sure about using bat? You guys did say this medal didn't exist in your world. Who knows what this could do to you."

"I doubt it. If the darkness had to corrupt it, then it means it's the same as the others." Discord said waving it off. "Now hurry up. I want to get this boredom over and done with."

"He says that, yet I'm sure he's looking forward to causing some chaos." Drago said making Discord start whistling with a grin. "Heads up, Reiji." Drago says as the tosses the medals back to him.

Reiji is about to catch them but ends up bumping into someone. Causing both of them to fall on their butts and the medals landing flat on his head.

"Ouch." Reiji said rubbing his rear. "Sorry about that. I should've...wow." Is all he can think to say after seeing the girl in front of him.

In front of him is a petite light green skinned girl long green unkempt looking hair with bangs parted to the left, freckled cheeks, light brown eyes, a striped sweater being both brown and light brown, leggings in a bluish gray color, and black shoes. She shakes her head before giving him an annoyed look that then goes confused looking at his head. Reiji quickly figures she's probably looking at the medals and begins trying to think of an excuse along with the others.

"Is that a dinosaur?" The girl asks pointing to his head.

The question dumbfounds them, making them look at what she means and find a small silver mechanical rex standing on Reiji's head. The rex that has red crystal on parts like the top of its head, claws, and tail. Its arms, legs and back looking like they're coated with obsidian rock.

"HUH?!" They all yell at once, startling the rex. With a mini roar goes charging through under the guys, knocking them off their feet and onto the floor. They look back to it in time to see the rex knock other students over before running out the door.

"What was that?" Connor asked.

"I don't know. But I'm going to find out." Drago said as he got up and ran after it.

"Count me in." Negi says following his lead.

Discord wanted to follow but he knew what Drago would say and make him do. With a sigh he gets up. "Come on guys. The rest of us should go to the shelter. I'd rather not deal with Fluttershy being sad and then Rainbow wanting to kill us for it."

Connor and Ressha go pale with that thought. "Yeah. Right behind ya on that." Connor said as he and Ressha stood up. Then makes a deadpan look seeing Reiji still staring at the girl who had stood up with a confused look towards where the rex left. "Reiji!" Connor shouts quietly as he kicks the bonehead back into reality as the girl turns back towards them.

"Hey there." Reiji says to her having quickly stood up and acting natural. "Sorry about bumping into you like that." He smiles to her but only get annoyed look in return.

"It's alright." Is all she says before walking away.

"Wait." Reiji says making the girl stop and make a tired sigh before turning to him with the same annoyed look. "What's your name? If you don't mind me asking."

"It doesn't matter. Not like you would remember." The girl said as she walks away. Reiji is confused for a second till he smiles and runs in front of her.

"Try me."

She's surprised by this and ponders about for a second. "If you see and ask me again tomorrow, then maybe I'll tell you." She walks past him after saying that.

Reiji watches she walks away. "I'll look forward to it then." He says to himself.

Within a Dark Realm

Inside an area where the whole space around is a dark void with the floor being a clear white crystal with large spikes sticking out in different directions. Molten is there angrily beating away at one of the spikes, as he kept breaking parts off it while it kept continuously restoring itself.

"GOD DAMN BASTARDS! I'LL FUCKIN KILL THEM! ESPECIALLY ZERO-ONE!! THE NEXT TIME I SEE HIM, I'LL RIP OFF HIS HEAD!!"

"Oh, someone seems sensitive." A mocking voice said to him. Molten clenches his fist tighter as the voice continued. "To think your sorry ass was sent running with your tail between your legs by six clowns in suits."

"The same will happen to you if you underestimate the Riders." Molten said as he turned to face a teen girl laying on a large spike coming out of the ground sideways. This girl has white skin matching Rarity's, with long red crimson hair wearing tank top shirt matching her hair's color, a long black skirt, crimson high heels and a gray cloak. "Or else you'll regret it, Scarlet." He ends with a hiss.

"We'll see. Where are the others?" She said as she looks around. "Or am I the only one who thought they should at least thank the failure for at least getting one part of the mission done." She smirks seeing his rage.

Molten walks up to Scarlet, while her arm becomes a blade behind her back. As the two are about to strike each other, the whole area underneath them rumbles and shakes as the two are then slammed into the ground. The two feel the gravity increase around them as they look to the ground to see deep in the white crystal a dark shapeless figure moving around the center. They are then lifted up in the air and slammed right back down.

"Forgive us, Master!" The two shouted causing the two to be released. "AAAAHHHHH!!" They screamed as they held their hands to their heads in pain feeling as though they're being split in half slowly. The second the pain stopped; they went limp onto the ground as a dark mist engulfed Molten and disappears leaving a belt on Molten with a teal colored progrise key. The belt's buckle was black with a large red button and a small bit of silver in the front along with a silver strap. As for the teal progrise key it had the image of a shark, along with words saying 'BITING SHARK' and 'ABILITY FANG' on it.

"We understand." Molten says standing in a kneeling position with Scarlet doing the same.

"We won't fail you, Master." She said before the two got up. They turned around and walked off as they disappeared into a shroud of shadow. The minute they were gone the whole area shook as the darkness relentlessly moves around as if beating on the crystal with rage.

[Cue Opening]

At the Park

Drago and Negi had chased the rex all the way to the park but then lost track of it. They had split up to search around spots and areas they thought it could hide at. After a while and meeting back up, they had come no closer to finding it.

"Where could that little thing had run off to?" Negi asks as he and Drago look around a pond. "I doubt it could've left without someone screaming or shouting like they did on the way over here."

"Beats me. It's a slippery little guy, that's for sure. For all we know it could-" Drago stops seeing a girl come walking up to them. "Please tell me you were popular with girl back in your world." He said hoping their luck wasn't up.

Scarlet smirks. "So, you're the Kamen Riders? The heroes who sent our Molten running like the sorry beaten ass rodent he is."

Negi and Drago back up a bit. "Should've guessed the next opponent would be a witch." Negi says as he and Drago get into a stance. "Knowing demons like you, you didn't come just to chat."

"You wouldn't be wrong." Scarlet said with a smirk as she snaps her fingers and Riotoozes spawn all around them. "You may call me Scarlet. I came to say hello and rock you around a bit. And don't worry about your friends. Molten said he was at least going to say hi to them if he couldn't fight Zero-One yet." She points a finger towards the two making the Riotoozes charge them.

Drago and Negi nods to each other, "Let's skip the pleasantries then." Drago said as the two turn their backs towards each other and activate their magic. Instead of hopper's ability appearing on Negi's right arm, the words 'ABILITY STRONG' appeared. While Drago's right knuckle is covered in a red aura.

Right when the Riotoozes got close enough, Drago slams his fist into the ground sending a red wave that bursts all the ones in front of him into pieces. Negi crosses his arms wide creating two huge parts of a hercules beetle pincer horns around both arms and goes past the two side ends of the Riotoozes. He then closes the pincer to grabs all of them which he then lifts them up with ease, flips them around over himself before slamming them splattering onto the ground.

Scarlet chuckles with delight. "Oh, I was hoping you'd make this fun." She said grinning as she becomes metal and then incased in blades that cover over her completely that then crystalize.

"They really do have them." Drago said clenching his fists.

Following the same process as Molten's, the crystal cracks and burst into pieces revealing a female humanoid lizard kaiju. This one was silver, parts of its body looking like metal armor, with black bladed crystals coming out its shoulders, feet and head, and yellow crystal eyes. The kaiju holds out both its arms, making the crystal that broke off, form around the arms and creates a huge, long white crystal looking blade on both arms. Scarlet grinds the blades against each other making sparks while chuckling.

Seeing this, Negi and Drago reach under their sweaters and pull out their drivers. The two attaché the drivers to their waists with one saying (Zero-One Driver!) and the other making a rex growl noise. The two then push the buttons on both their items. (Strong!/Alpha Tyranno!) Negi presses the key to his belt while Drago inserts the adapter key into the belt. (Authorize!/Infusion!) A huge mechanical yellow grasshopper and lime green hercules beetle come out of the sky, while an obsidian wall comes out of the ground with the rex skeleton with both drivers playing jingles.

"Henshin!" The two shouted as they insert the key and core into the drivers. (Progrize! Rough! Strong! Hard! Amazing Hercules! With mighty horn-like pincers that flip the opponent helpless!/Core Blaze! Stomp! Slam! Roar! Alpha Tyranno!) The two were now transformed into Zero-One Amazing Hercules form and Jurassic.

"Let the fun begin." Scarlet said in a wicked voice.

The Animal Shelter

The guys were in the middle of helping Fluttershy at the shelter. Connor and Ressha were cleaning out the litter of the cages, Discord was helping Fluttershy bathing the animals, Reiji was supposed to be combing a cat but seemed to have his head in the clouds.

"Is something wrong with Reiji?" Fluttershy asked with a worried look.

Discord looks over to him for a second and ponders after looking back. "Hm...I honestly have no idea. He's been like that since we left the school. I'm sure it was something, but...I can't remember. I'm sure it was at the tip of my-"

"I wanted Zero-One." The guys get surprised by the voice, while Fluttershy goes cold. They look to the entrance and see Molten with the belt around him. "But the master had other plans. So, you'll have to do." He ends holding up the progrise key. (Fang!) The key announced as Molten pushed the button, along with four piles of sand appearing next to him.

"A Raidriser? How does he have that?" Connor asked surprised.

Ressha's magic switches him with Momo. "Doesn't matter. Right now, we've got an asshole in need of another lesson." Saying this Momo and the other pulled out their drivers from their pockets and placed them on their waist.

"We'll see about that." Molten said as he inserts the key into the belt starting a jingle that ended when he pushed the red part of the belt. (Raid Rise!) The belt says as tubes shoot out the key and bend wrapping around him with a DNA strip going down through it from the top. (Biting Shark!) A mechanical humanoid kaiju with its body mostly being white with a bit of silver, it has teal colored shark like fins on its arms and legs. Its head had a teal shark looking face with white fangs going around the mouth and smaller teal fins on the top and sides of the head. (Fangs that can chomp through concrete!)

Molten was now a Shark Raider with the sand turning into kaiju. One looked a bit like a green chameleon with frills around its neck, wrists, and ankles holding a whip. The other three looked similar being blue with red long leather jackets, having metal looking helmet heads with red round lenses having a drill at the top of their heads and coming out of its jagged mouth, having four long claws on the right hand but have different left hands. One has an axe like blade, the other has a bird like claw, and the last having drill.

"A chameleon Imagin and 3 mole Imagins." Reiji says pointing to them and then smiles while inserting the taka, tora, and batta medals. "Looks like I got my wish."

Connor glares at him. "I'm so happy for you." He says sarcastically as he shakes the rabbit and tank bottles.

Discord looks to Fluttershy. "Stay behind us." As he opens his belt, she looks at him with worry.

"B-But Discord-" Fluttershy is cut off hearing his belt as he placed the card in it. (Kamen Rider!) "Be careful." Is all she gets to tell him as he disappears snapping his fingers and teleporting himself along with the guys and the kaiju outside the shelter.

Back at the Park

Jurassic and Zero-One had been having a difficult time in their fight against Scarlet. She has had the upper hand in this fight from her having blades all over her body. The two were sent flying back with sparks flying off their chests.

"This isn't going so well." Zero-One said as he and Jurassic stood back up. "Got any ideas?"

"Just one." Jurassic answered.

"Is talking all you have left to offer?" Scarlet said as she swings her arms over and over sending energy slashes at the two. Jurassic quickly responds by pressing the hammer of the belt making a guitar noise and then pushes the slot up and down. (Flaming! Stomp!) Fire starts to build around Jurassic and then stomps on the ground sending a burst of fire in a big wave that takes out all the slashes making them explode.

Scarlet grinds her blades against the floor. "Not bad. Let's see how-" (Rising Hopper!) Before she could turn, Zero-One had gotten behind her by changing back into his basic form, jumped around and over to her by using the trees, and then knees the back of her head. The hit makes her stammer forward into an upper cut from Jurassic who came running out of the smoke and after the hit he pushes the hammer twice making the guitar noise again, followed by pushing the slot up and down twice also. (Crushing! Slam!)

Jurassic then attacks her as a red crystal rex tail, hitting her a couple times before he tries to swing it upward. The second it was about to make contact; Scarlet's crystal blades came off her arms and turned into katana like blades that she uses to cut the attack into pieces. "What?" Jurassic said getting surprised on how his attack got cut into pieces and seeing his other attacks didn't seem to had affected her.

"My turn." Scarlet said sounding a bit angered. She then dashes forward and slashes at Jurassic who tries to dodge each attack but gets hit a couple times making sparks with each hit. "Is this all you can offer to entertain me." She says as continued with the attacks. (Bit-Byte-Kilo-Megarize!) "What?!" She peeks behind herself to see Zero-One at the corner of her eyes.

"Not even close!" Jurassic shouted before she refocused back on him. Jurassic pushes the slot up and down 3 times. (Roar!) She quickly tries to react by slashing down on him, but Jurassic just took the hits, grabs ahold of her arms and takes a deep breath before letting out a powerful red roar.

"AAAAAAHHHH!!" Scarlet screamed out in pain as Jurassic pulls the slot up and then quickly pushes both the hammer and slot down before the jingle could play. The two Riders then jumped up and came down towards Scarlet from both sides as kicks. (Rising! Mega! Impact!/Flaming Crushing Bite!!) The crystal blades on her body began to glow. "DON'T GET FULL OF YOURSELVES!!" Scarlet screamed out in fury. She starts spinning around with the blades extending out acting like the blades of a blender and acted as a shield that creates an explosion the moment the attacks collided.

Jurassic and Zero-One landed next to each other and look towards the smoke from the explosion. "Do you think that did it?"

"When it comes to Rider kaiju, hardly ever." Zero-One answered and is proven right when Scarlet comes spinning out of the smoke hitting the Riders multiple times like a spinning-top making sparks fly with each hit making the guys yell out in pain.

Meanwhile at the Shelter

As people are running away from the area, OOO and Den-o were battling the Shark Raider. The two Riders were mostly on the defensive with OOO using his claws and Den-o using his sword to guard and block the Raider's fin blades. As they both try to go for a hit, the kaiju blocks both hits and holds them in place as it proceeds to make teal shark fangs appear hovering in front of its mouth that it uses to chomp down on the Riders making sparks fly where they hit. OOO and Den-o stammer back from the hit and then see the Raider push the same red button it used to transform. (Biting Bolide!)

"What's the fish bastard up to now?" Den-o asks as rows of teal shark teeth appear hovering next to the fins on the arms and legs.

"Uh oh." Is all OOO says as the Raider swung closing its arms making the teeth hit them in a biting motion as they pass by them, then swings its arms open to make the teeth hit again. and then the Raider spins 3 times swinging its legs as kicks to make the teeth hit the Riders 6 times making many sparks fly off them as they yelled out in pain.

Build was mostly getting hit around since his opponent was blending in with the area. He keeps trying to look around to spot the kaiju but the second he does by chance see it, its whip hits him before he could attack.

"Aaaahhh!" Build screams as he stammers back and falls to one knee. "I've had enough of this." Build said to himself as he pulls out the rabbit bottle and pulls out the hedgehog fullbottle. After shaking and twisting the top, he places it into the belt. (Harinezumi! Tank!) Build then turns the crank making the two constructs appear with the front part making a white armor. "Build up." The construct closes and replaces rabbit parts with the white hedgehog parts. The legs matched tanks but is white, while the shoulder and arm have spikes armor over it with a round spike knuckle armor covering the hand, and the eye being a hedgehog now,

Build waits a bit for the Imagin to make a move. When it strikes at him with the whip, Build reacts quickly after it hits, to wrap the whip around the spike knuckle, makes the spikes on the knuckle expand to keep a hold of it when he stabs the knuckle into the ground. He then activates the tank treads under his foot as he steps on the whip causing it to be pulled towards him along with the Imagin. As the Imagin got closer, it let go of its weapon. Build takes this chance to quickly run up and strike it a couple times with the spikes on the knuckle extending, making sparks fly with each hit and makes it take a couple steps back. As he goes for another attack, the Imagin pulls out a weapon from a small void it creates and blocks the attack. "What?!"

Build is shocked about the weapon it blocked with. What its using is OOO's weapon, the Medajaribur. A black sword looking a bit like a katana with a light blue color lining the inside of it and a blue edged blade. Build gets another surprise when the Imagin pulls out a green core medal with the image of a mantis looking forward holding its raptorial to both sides in it. "Henshin." The Imagin says in a mocking voice as it pushed Build back and jams the medal into its chest.

The Imagin's burst into a bunch of silver medals and then reformed itself back. It mostly still looked the same but the two horns on its head were replaced with insect antenna, its arms and legs now had braces with red circles going down in fours in 4 rows, the Medajaribur and its whip merged together. The sword's edge became green, the blue on the sword became red, along with mantis raptorial blades with jagged edges forming out of the blade, and the core medal is implanted into its chest.

"This isn't good." Build says as the Imagin chuckles. Its mantis blades look like it multiples turning into a mantis blade whip. The Imagin swings the whip at Build, who tries to block but the the spikes get cut through easily. Seeing this the Imagin chuckles as it begins swinging the whip around wildly, cutting through a bunch of trees and other objects, along with Build too, with sparks fly off his body with each hit. "AAAAAHHHH!!"

Decade was fighting the 3 mole Imagin, who even though was outnumbered, was actually having fun with them. Decade blocks and holds the axe mole, while dodging the claw mole and kicking it to the side. As the drill mole was about to attack him, Decade pulls the axe mole in the way, making it take the hit. As it cries in pain and falls to the floor, Decade shoots the drill mole with his gun and makes it stammer back. He changes the card case into sword mode and slashes the claw and axe moles a couple times sending them falling onto their backs.

Drill Imagin stands up. "You can't keep this up, Decade. Sooner or later, we'll wear you out."

"Hm? Is that so? Then...let's try this." Decade had said to himself when he looked at the drill mole's drill hand and then looking back at the other two Imagin as he opens his driver. "Henshin." Decade said as he shows a card. He places the card in the belt and closes it, making a dial pressing noise. (Kamen Ride! Faiz!) Red glowing lines start spreading and shine brightly in a blinding light for a second. Decade was now a Rider with the suit mostly being black and silver with red lines where the glowing red lines had been, 2 half circle like yellow insect eyes with red tracing around the making two small antennas on the top of the head.

He opens the belt again and closes after putting another card in. (Form Ride! Faiz Accel!) The chest of the armor opens up to show the inner circuits and parts as the chest pieces rotated over the shoulders. After this the red lines turns silver and eyes become red. "I'll give you 10 seconds." Decade said as he holds up his left arm that has a watch-like device strapped to it and the case in sword mode in hand, also known as the Faiz Accel watch, and pushes a red button on it. (Start up.) The watch announced as Decade switch the sword to his right hand and wind built up around him as a 10 second timer on the watch started.

"Get him!" All three Imagin yell as they charge towards him. As they got close and swung at him, Decade runs past the two in front of him at high speed, making them hit each other. The three start arguing with each other till Decade races by them a couple times, slashing and makes sparks fly with each hit. Decade ends the barrage of hits by hitting them with one last slash that sends them rolling back as the timer reached 5 seconds. (Final Attack Ride! F-F-Faiz!) The Imagin heard Decade's belt announce as six spinning cones appear hovering over them with the pointed end facing towards them. "WAIT!WAIT!WAIT!" The three say in panic to Decade as something is shot into the three Imagin.

Before they could do anything, the cones came shooting down into them one at a time, as Decade went kicking into them as the timer passed was down to 3 seconds. (3...2...1. Time out! Deformation!) Decade had stopped a few feet away from them as the watch said this and changed back to his basic form when the Imagin exploded.

Decade scoffed smiling under his helmet. "So much for their big talk. 10 seconds was all it took." He turns back towards the smoke. "Hm?" He sees the smoke starts to darken with a light coming from the middle. "I should've guessed the darkness wasn't going to make this easy."

When the darkness disappeared, what stood there now were 3 different kaiju now. Two kaiju were huge walking on all four, with a horn coming out the top of their heads and has tusks coming out the shoulders. They were big enough to wrap their hands around Decade's body and has four eyes. They were mostly black and has purple glowing eyes. Their claws, horns, waist and marks on their body were in a crimson red color.

The 3rd on was the drill mole Imagin but it had changed. Its sweater was gone and replaced with a darken gray colored armor on its arms, legs, chest and shoulders. Its right claw had been replaced with the rhino looking pile-driver and the left hands drill changed also. The base of the drill where it was attached was black with a gauge meter red and silver on different sides of it. While the drill itself was a different shape with a yellow tip, two small yellow blades coming out the middle of the drill and a yellow crown like ring circling the bottom.

The Imagin's drill begins to spin with power and wind building around it. (Vortex Break!) It thrusts the drill forward that sends a spiraling rhino horn, hitting Decade and sends him flying back landing into Build. "Ouch." Decade says as he got off and stood up with Build. "Do you have any idea what those are?"

"What now- Shit! Two Gigandeaths." Build then notices the Imagin's drill. "Wait! That's supposed to be my weapon. The Drill Crusher." Build says shocked. Then OOO and Den-o come flying and landing next to them. As Build helps them up, they see the Raider stands in front of the kaiju and then holds out its right hand. It summons a black case with a big yellow line going through it and then unfolds it into a bladed sword.

"First mine and your weapons. And now Zero-One's Attache Calibur." OOO sees the Raider pull out a progrise key. (Magma!) After pushing the button, the Raider puts it into the hilt of the sword. (Progrisekey confirmed. Ready to utilize. Unicorn's ability.) "That's not good!" OOO yelled as they backed up a bit from the Raider lifting up the sword and pushing the trigger. (Volcanic Kaban Strash!) The sword announced as the Raider sent a slash of magma at the Riders, that hits them and explodes. "AAAAAHHHH!!"

The Riders land in front of the doors of the Shelter. They hear Fluttershy scream out to them from inside the shelter as they struggle to stand and see the kaiju walk towards them. "This wasn't even worthy of a challenge. Gigandeath. Finish them." The Raider said pointing to the Riders making the Gigandeaths roar.

"Well, it's now or never." OOO told himself as he stands tilting his belt back up, takes out the taka medal and replaces it with the unicorn before tilting the belt again. (Yunikon! Tora! Batta!) The scanner said as OOO ran it over the belt and the taka helmet changes to purple with a gem-like horn coming out the center of the forehead, a purple mane going from the top to the back of the helmet, the eyes are still green but has pony shaped ears coming out above the eyes. "Now let's see what this can do."

"Wait. Hold on." Decade tried warning as OOO lights up his horn. OOO creates a huge flash of light that blinds everyone and when it gone, the Riders find their legs inside the ground. "I told you dumbass." Decade said as he hits the back of OOO's head. As the kaiju laughed, the gigandeaths prepare to attack. Decade then realizes something as he grabs ahold of OOO's horn, making him surprised and confused. "I hate you for making me do this."

As the huge kaiju were about to attack, Decade channeled OOO's magic into his own and snaps his fingers. All the kaiju get pulled into a vortex that appeared under them. As soon as the kaiju were gone, the vortex disappeared and Discord's transformation comes undone as he passed out. "Discord!" OOO shouted and quickly switches the batta medal with the horse medal and runs the scanner over the belt. (Yunikon! Tora! Uma!) As Fluttershy runs out to them, OOO uses the horse legs to break free from the ground and then stomps break the others free. Then his transformation comes undone and Reiji falls to his hands and knees panting.

"Is Discord okay?" Fluttershy asks as the other two undo their transformations after Build helped Discord out of the ground.

Connor sighs. "I think he just passed out from using up his magic. Whatever he did to them, saved us." Connor looks to Fluttershy. "Fluttershy, call the others and tell them to meet us at the cafe." Fluttershy nods and runs back inside the shelter.

Back at the Park

Jurassic and Zero-One were laying on the floor with Scarlet walking up to them. She chuckles as she stops pointing one her swords at them.

"Looks like this is the end of our game." She said as she lifted the swords over her head. "Goodbye Ka-" Scarlet is suddenly lifted up a bit and slammed into the ground.

"What?!" The two Riders say in surprise as they look down and see the small rex biting onto Scarlet's foot.

"Let go you lit-" As she was about to attack the rex with her sword, the rex lifted and slammed her into the ground again. The rex kept doing it another 4 times before it spun her around and then let go sending her flying away through the sky.

"I guess he's on our side." Zero-One said with the rex then roaring as confirmation.

The Dragons Cavern

After getting a call and short description, Sunset and the girls had quickly left and met up with Fluttershy and the guys at the cafe. When they arrived, they found Connor, Reiji and Ressha were watching as Drago and Negi were being patched up by Emerald and Fluttershy.

"Oh goodness, are you all alright?" Rarity asked.

Connor deadpans at her. "Well aside getting our asses thrown around, Molten becoming a Raider and the kaiju somehow having our weapons; I'd say we're good."

"WHAT?!" All the girls shout in shock making the guys cover their ears.

"Does everyone around here have to yell?" Connor asked himself.

"Wait! Where's Dissy?" Pinkie asked while looking around. "Don't tell me he's-"

Right then. the little rex jumped onto the table. "AH!" Everyone screamed.

"What is that?" Sunset asked still getting over the scare.

Drago and Negi shrug. "We got no idea. It just kinda showed up at the school and saved us from one of Molten's buddies." Drago told them.

"Really now? This little thing delt with a kaiju? That sounds impressive." Applejack said as Fluttershy picked it up.

The little rex roared at her. "Aw. He's so cute." Fluttershy started petting the rex that it started wagging its tail and growling happily.

Reiji looks to them. "If it's gonna be part of our group, I say it needs a name."

"I say we name it Steel Fang then." Rainbow suggested. "OW! Hey!" She yelled when the rex jumped out of Fluttershy's hands and hit Rainbow on the head.

"Looks like it didn' like that name." Applejack said.

"Maybe he should decide his name." Pinkie said and then knelt down to bring her head down to come eye to eye with the rex. "What do you want your name to be?"

To Emerald's horror, the rex moved around the room knocking the tables out of the way to make room and then jumped onto a table to breathe fire at the floor while moving it around. "HEY! DON'T BURN DOWN MY LIBRARY!" Emerald began chasing the rex around and the group looked at the burnt floor to see it say 'Blaze'.

"Huh. That's a simple name." Rarity said.

"I think it's a nice name." Fluttershy said smiling as Blaze leapt to her arms to have her protect him from Emerald.

"Now that we got that out of the way, what did happen to you guys and Discord." Sunset asked making the guys sigh exhausted.

"Okay. We'll explain." Connor answered.

Connor, Reiji and Ressha explained their part and told them that Discord was now resting in his room having exhausted himself. After getting finished being treated and hearing the guys story, Drago and Negi told them their story.

"ARE YOU AN IDIOT?!" Sunset shouted scolding Reiji. "Of course, the magic backfired on you. You've never used unicorn magic before. It takes months of learning and practice to be able to use magic properly."

Applejack places a hand on Sunset's shoulder. "Now, now sugarcube. Ah'm sure he's learned his lesson. Hm?"

"Maybe I can keep trying to use the magic randomly till I get used to it." Reiji pondered to himself till he felt a chilly presence. He looks behind himself to see Sunset and Applejack glaring at him. "Um...Maybe I should ask you or Twilight to teach me, Sunset."

Sunset sighs frowning. "Sorry. It's just that magic can be really dangerous if you don't know how to control it. Plus, I'm sure Twilight would be a better choice on teaching you." She said looking away while rubbing her right arm.

Fluttershy looks up one of the stairs leading to the second floor. "I just hope Discord is okay. He's been asleep ever since he used that spell on the kaiju."

"Don't worry so much, Flutters." Rainbow said as she roughly pants Fluttershy's back, almost making her fall out her seat. "He just ran out of steam. I'm sure the goof is fine. I'm more curious on what he used and why he didn't use it sooner before. I mean, if it could get rid of kaiju so easily, he should use it more often."

Sunset deadpans at Rainbow. "That's because of the spells backlash. There's also no guarantee the spell will work every time."

"True." Drago said. "Plus, the spell he used didn't get rid of them. It only put them in a void till Scarlet breaks them out of it. He did it that because he knew we needed to regroup and make a plan."

Negi leans back in his chair. "So, Molten has our weapons. First the monsters, then the items and now the weapons. How'd they get their hands on our weapons?"

"Along with the primal cores." Drago added crossing his arms.

Rarity makes a confused look. "What are primal cores?

"They're the soul fragments of past warriors." A new voice said out load.

The group gets startled and turn to find a man neither of them has seen before sitting at a recliner near a window. This man has pink skin like Pinkie Pie's but has long red spikey hair and orange eyes. From the black muscle shirt he's wearing, they could tell he's well fit, also wearing black track suit pants with a red line going down the sides and wearing black boots.

Drago raises a brow. "Who are you? And how do you know about the primal cores?"

The man smiles. "The name is Orbital Satellite. Your direct contact to Zea."

"ZEA?!" Connor. Negi and Reiji shouted.

"Um...What's this Zea thing?" Applejack asked confused along with everyone else.

Negi turns to look to everyone. "Zea was a communications satellite that helped Zero-One by providing and creating his arsenal, along making new progrise keys. It summons those animals that I use to transform. I was wondering if Zea was here, but I guess that's answered now." He ends looking back to Orbital.

"That still doesn't answer my question on how you know about the primal cores." Drago said.

"Let's let the guessing genius take a guess." Orbital says smiling to Pinkie.

Pinkie actually ponders about for a few seconds before going wide eyed while inhaling deeply to speak really quickly. "YouknowabouteverythingbecauseZeahasbeenaroundsincewhentheRiderpowerscameandthecoreswerecreated.Andhasbeenkeepinganeyeoneverything,waitingfortheRiderstoawakenandrunintotroubletohelpout." She was panting while everyone looks at her questioningly and then look to Orbital who has a surprised happy face.

"Right on the spot. Zea is right. You are unpredictably good at guessing."

"So. you're a Humagear?" Connor asked.

"Nope. I'm just one of a long generation of caretakers for Zea." Orbital answered. "I was sent by Zea to help assist the Riders. It'll be a pleasure to help out the legends." He said bowing.

"Okay. Not that this isn't good or anything. But" Rainbow said sounding annoyed. "can someone explain what primal cores are?"

Drago sighs. "Like Orbital said, primal cores are soul fragments of warriors that died during the war against the darkness. When the crystal cores or now called alpha cores were created, the energy from the cores had spread around the area and crystalized the lingering fragments of souls which are now known as primal cores. They were safe guarded by a family but were thought destroyed after that family's home was destroyed in an explosion."

"But looks like Molten and his group took them." Discord said from upstairs surprising everyone. As he walked to and down the steps, his legs were shaking a bit and almost topples over till Negi and Applejack quickly caught him. "Who knew things look so much better spinning around." He said laughing.

"You really shouldn't be up yet." Negi said.

"He's right, Discord. Ya need some more rest before tryin' to get up." Applejack said with concern.

"There's time to rest later. With six enemies, we need all hands-on deck." Discord countered.

Fluttershy walks up to him. "But you're already exhausted from the last battle. You'll just get yourself hurt trying to act tough." She scolded him with a look of worry.

"The second they chose to pick a fight at the shelter, they made this personal." Everyone looks at him surprised at those words. "I mean do you know how many hours I slaved there, and they were thinking making all that go to waste." Now everyone gives him a deadpan look, except for Fluttershy, Pinkie and Orbital who are smiling at him.

"Well, that's all and good but how are we supposed to fight them? They have the upper hand with the weapons." Connor pointed out. "Which we still don't know how they got their hands on them."

"I know the answer to that." Orbital stated.

"Well...If you actually know, care to explain then?" Connor asked.

"The darkness forced its way into Zea when it first got to this world. Zea made sure to prioritize the link that the Rider powers were using to get here but the darkness able to take mostly all the weapons and most of the transformation items, while the rest of the items were scattered throughout the world."

Ressha groans. "So, we're screwed. Great."

"No. There's a way." Negi said as he and Applejack helped Discord sit down. "Orbital, Zea used to design and make Zero-One's weapons and progrise keys before. Do you think it can make us new weapons?"

"Of course." Orbital answered. "Why do you think I'm here? Zea predicted you'd need help and sent me here to look or get any info on what to create." He looks to Drago. "Especially you, Jurassic. The alpha cores came from warriors who each specialized in using different weapons. So even tyranno needs a weapon."

Drago nods. "Alright then." He then turns to the girls. "I was never the creative type. Do any of you mind helping me?"

"You can count on me." Sunset answered smiling.

"I call helping Connor." Rainbow said wrapping an arm around Connor's shoulder.

"What? We don't need help." Connor said. "Plus, we already have designs for them."

"Don't worry about it darling. We just think you could use a second opinion." Rarity said as she patted his head which made Connor give her an annoyed look.

"Plus, those snakes might expect what type of weapons ya'll would make." Applejack added.

Negi ponders about it. "You've got a point. Though I know something else you, Rainbow and Pinkie could work on instead." They make confused looks as he walks over to his backpack and takes out a notebook. He flips through the pages till he stops on a page and shows it to them. "This."

Pinkie gasps in excitement seeing the original look of the Riders motorcycles. "No way! We get to make you guys new wheels?" She asked shouting full of joy and eagerness.

Negi nods making Rainbow grin. "Now we're talking! Let's get started then!"

"Yeah!" Everyone shouts in agreement.

Emerald walked up to Discord. "Then while you're all at work. I'll handle restoring any amount of Discord's magic that I can."

Fluttershy follows Emerald's lead. "Um...I don't think...I would be of much help on any of those. So...is it okay, if I help you too?"

Discord lets out a breath of exhaustion. "Be my guest. I won't be able to do much on my own for a while. Also..."

"Um.. Yes?" Fluttershy asks wondering what he wants to say.

Discord wobbles a bit. "I think I over did it by moving around too soon." They were confused till he went limp like a puppet.

"DISCORD!!" They all screamed and rushed to check on him.

After making sure Discord was okay and helped get him back to his room, everyone was hard at work looking over the designs of the weapons and of the bikes. Connor was looking over his design for a new weapon and changes some parts. Reiji was satisfied with his but decided to add another weapon, Drago and Sunset were both arguing and working hard on a design. Hours later, Negi walked up to Orbital.

"What's up?" Orbital asked while playing with a rubik's cube.

Negi pulled out his driver. "If I put this on, will I be able to connect to Zea? I need his help with this." He shows Orbital the blank progrise key. "I'll need an edge if I'm going to take on Molten with the shark key. So, I think Zea can help me bring this to life."

Orbital smirks at the question. "Why don't you put it on and find out." Negi answers by nodding and then proceeding to put it on. (Zero-One Driver!) Negi's eyes go wide while looking up to the ceiling and then a blue transparent version of him made out of ones and zeroes. His transparent self is flies out of the building and travels all the way into space and enters into a big round blue lens of a huge black circle satellite with rectangle panel on both sides of it. He then finds himself inside a white room with blue lines of ones and zeroes.

He looks around but already knows where he is and smiles being able to hear Zea speak to him. "Glad to be working with you too." Negi nods hearing Zea speak to him. "Yeah. I kinda figured you couldn't make more progrise keys while the originals exist. That's why I wondered if could help me give this key life." Negi shows the blank key and then smiles. "Yup. I already have an idea for it. I just need help giving this key a spark to get started."

Hours after everyone left and the guys went to sleep, a mysterious assembly looking room inside an unknown part of the cafe started having machines and lights turning on. The machines started working building something while showing blueprints on the screens.

Outside the Area of Canterlot City

Scarlet had annoyingly been trying to break the void field her allies were trapped in by making it appear and slashed at it from night to morning. By the afternoon she succeeded in destroying it and her allies reappeared in front of her.

"I can't believe you got yourself put into such an easy trap." Scarlet said to the shark Raider.

"QUIET! Don't think we didn't sense how you were thrown out of the city by something that was the size of your foot!" The Raider shouted at Scarlet.

"It just got me by surprise. The Riders won't escape their next encounter with me." Scarlet hissed at the last part.

A dark aura surrounds the kaiju and starts causing them pain. "AAAAAHHHHH!! WE UNDERSTAND MASTER! PLEASE STOP!!" The pain stopped as the aura disappeared.

"You heard the master's orders. Let's go do our jobs and see who does the best." Scarlet said as she started walking towards the city.

The Raider scoffs. "I don't need you or anyone to order me. " Then starts walking along with her, while the other kaiju went in a different direction.

While at the Dragons Cavern

The guys had snuck out of school and gotten back to the Dragons Cavern when then received a message from Emerald saying that Orbital wanted to show them their work. Discord was already there from having taken the day off to rest. They tried seeing if the girls wanted to tag along, but they couldn't because they were planning to help Fluttershy at the shelter since the guys were gonna be busy. They tried Sunset also but she refused saying she had something else to do.

They followed Emerald and Orbital to the back of the building and into what looks like a mechanics workspace full of tools and machines. In the middle of the room were the new motorcycles. Decade's is still the same original Machine Decade, a motorcycle being white and black with salmon pink going down the top of it with the front matching his helmet. But sees a few cards were set on it.

Den-o's was still based on a Honda XR250 but was modified with a new armor and frame. The blue color on it had been changed to black, the wheels had rectangular shaped armor parts on both sides of both wheels, the front ones had blades, matching the blade of Den-o's sword, coming out the front of them, the back ones seem to act as boosters, the front of the cycle matched Den-o's mask and the back was still the same but was in a silver color now. This is Den-o's Denrailer.

OOO's was still looked similar as the original Ridevendor but the front had the lion mouth from its ToRidevendor mode, along with red looking feathers going around the sides of the face making it look like a lion's mane, the part from the back wheel was moved to the front and changed from exhaust pipes to gun barrels and the back exhaust piece was replaced with a black new armor frame having four exhaust pipes that resembles the legs of a grasshopper pointing upward diagonally having green lining some of it. This is OOO's NeoRidevendor.

Build's was still the same too but has been modified. The front of the bike now had the shape of a rabbit's head with the ears in the shape of lightning bolts, along still having a gear going through the middle of the front but the edges were made to sharp. The bottle like piece was replaced with a red and silver tank looking design that has tank like barrels on both sides along with black linings. And a white spring design going around the sides of the motorcycle. This is Build's Mach Builder.

Zero-One's Rise Hopper was just about still the same but with a few changes. One of the changes was the black on the Zero-One like face frame of the motorcycle being replaced with yellow to get rid of the face and the black part of the frame being changed a bit to look more like an insect's mandibles with yellow outlining it to help it standout more. The fork of the bike had been modified to look more rotatable with yellow like parts going along the sides having a yellow hopper leg design on both the back and front of the wheels. And a black tail stabilizer piece on the back of the bike with yellow outlining it. This is Zero-One's Strike Hopper.

And finally, Jurassic's motorcycle was an adventure type that's been enhanced with stronger parts and made to go at faster speeds. The main colors of it are obsidian black and titanium silver with amber yellow high beams. The frame of the bike being made to have a silver fossil design going all around it. The top of the bike having a silver ribcage going around from the top to the sides, a tail like mold for the rear of the bike, the front having the top look of a dino skull, and fang shaped rims. This is Jurassic's Core Booster.

The guys were amazed see their cycles and began looking over them. "This is so awesome!" Reiji shouted as seated himself on his bike. "I really like what Rarity did with this beauty. I can't wait to take this for a spin."

"I have to admit, Rainbow did make it look '20% cooler' as she would put it." Connor said.

Negi nods in agreement. "I agree. I was right leaving it to the girls." He then notices Drago and Ressha looking over theirs with a warm smile. "I take it you guys like your rides."

Discord scoffs with a smile. "You have no idea. Though I think Drago feels differently about it." He said leaving on his cycle.

"I just really appreciate how much work Sunset put into it making the design for this bike." Drago said as he rubbed the top of his bike. "You can tell she put a lot of spirit and thought into it."

"I know what you mean." Ressha said staring at his. "Compared to the original, this bike got an upgrade. I'm amazed with what Pinkie has done."

Drago looks up to the guys. "We really need to thank the girls properly for their hard work."

Emerald smiles to them till she sees Drago and Negi's expressions get serious as they begin looking around themselves meaning one thing. "They're back, aren't they?" She asked them which they answered by them getting on their bikes.

Reiji cracks his knuckles. "Time for round 2."

Orbital chuckles as he presses a few switches. "Then get a move on Riders." He said as screens turned on and showed News channels showing the kaiju attacking different areas with policemen trying to stop the kaiju but failing. "Molten and Scarlet seem to be heading to the school and Gigandeaths are on their way to the shelter. The other kaiju seem to be headed to the mall and a huge building in the middle of the building."

Discord scowled. "They're after the sherlter again? The seal must be the reason why they're targeting the shelter."

"Same old thing then. To create negative emotions." Connor says. "That's why they're showing themselves to the public as well. They want to create as much fear and panic as they can. Which will earn them a large amount of it."

Drago scowled. "Then there's no time for discussions. We need to move now." The guys all agree by placing on their belts, with all except Zero-One's belt making confirmation noises.

The Front of the Canterlot High

Scarlet and Molten as kaijus were making their way towards the school as they just kept walking through the barrage of police gunfire as they hit or knock them out of their way. Molten as the Shark Raider used the teal teeth to rip apart every police car and Scarlet was slashing through every gun that shot at her. Ahead of this were a row of police cars and trucks placed as a barricade with officers waiting and aiming their guns at the kaiju.

"How long till the national guard get here, Chief Dusk?" One of the officers asked with fear in their voice looking towards a middle aged man with purple colored eyes, dark purple skin and black unkept hair, wearing a black long sleeved shirt with a badge pinned on it, dark gray pants and trench coat, and black shoes.

"Hopefully soon." Chief Dusk said keeping his eyes on the kaiju till he hears a car screech to a stop behind them. They turn see a young man getting out of his car and running over to them. The man had white skin and two dark blue hair colors with a cyan highlights and colored eyes, wearing a gray trench coat with light gray dress shirt and pants, and a black tie and shoes. "Detective Shining, what are you doing here? I thought I gave you orders to evacuate everyone out of the area?"

"Already done, unc- I mean, Chief Dusk." Shining said as he pulled his gun out after getting beside them and aims it to the kaiju. "Plus, I'm sure we're gonna need all hands-on deck here."

Dusk sighs. "Just don't any of you die on me." He said setting his sights back on the kaiju who are now closing in on them. "Let them-" Dusk is cut off as the Raider made a row of shark teeth and swings them ripping through the cars and trucks, causing the officers to run back as the vehicles exploded. As Dusk began to stand, Scarlet stomped her foot on top of his back pinning him to the ground and brings her sword's blade next to his neck. "What are you?"

Scarlet chuckles darkly. "Doesn't matter. Not like you could do anything to us. Now I wonder how I should-" Scarlet stops as gun shots hit her face. She looks a bit ahead and sees Shining pointing his gun at her and shoots her again. "I really hate the hero types." Scarlet said annoyed and then charged at Shining who keeps shooting at her. "I'll enjoy cutting you down the middle." She shouted as she prepared both her swords.

As Shining braces for the end, Scarlet stops seeing what's standing in front of him. "You!" Shining looks confused at her anger and looks down in front of him to find Blaze, who roars at Scarlet. "You'll be the first thing I'll kill today." She says with anger but then sees the rex roar a bunch of times before looking to her left. As soon as she looks in that direction, Jurassic rams into her with the Core Striker and drags her off.

"What?!" The Raider surprised but then looks behind himself after hearing an engine. He also gets rammed into and dragged off by Zero-One.

Shining helps his uncle up as they looked at the direction the kaiju were dragged off to. "What was that?" He asked Dusk.

"I don't know. For now, help me check the wounded before we go after them, Detective."

"Yes sir." Shining said getting to work.

At the Mall

People were panicking and running away in fear from the drill Imagin. It laughs as he destroys the place and sends blasts at the people. He stops upon noticing a bluish gray skinned boy, with purple eyes, hiding under a table in the food court. He had two-tone dark gray spikey hair, wearing red shirt and white under shirt, black shorts, along with black and white shoes.

"Look at what we have here." The Imagin said as it walks towards the scared boy who's too afraid to move. "Don't worry. I'll make this quick and painful." It said as stopped next to the table and builds power into both his weapons. Then slams his arms into the table, crushing it in an instant. People were screaming in the backround as the kaiju laughs in joy. "Stupid child thought it could be protected from me by a table. Damn idiotic child."

"I'm pretty sure there's only one idiot here." The kaiju gets startled and turns around to find Build behind him on the Mach Builder with the boy the kaiju thought it killed sitting in the seat with Build. Build turns to the kid. "Get to safety, kid. Leave this guy to me."

"Thanks." The boy said as he gets off the bike and runs off to the side to watch as Build turns back towards the kaiju.

"Do you really think you stand a chance against me, Build?" The Imagin said slamming both its weapons into each other.

"Yeah. I definitly can." Build answered as tubes came out of his belt and turned into his new weapon. Which is a drill saber like weapon. The handle looked similar to the Drill Crusher, but the gauge was replaced with a clear circle, similar to the one on his belt, with the insert slot leading into the weapon gone and replaced with a slot like the belt, and the slot at the hilt to put the drill into was gone, now having his symbol there. The drill now has four sharp edges leading from the hilt and straight to the top, with four small barrels next to the edges. This is the successor to the Drill Crusher, the Vortex Saber.

"What?! You aren't supposed to have your weapons."

Build holds up his left hands finger and shacks it slowly. "The originals are gone. But that didn't mean we couldn't make new ones, dumbass." He then runs the finger along the rabbit side of the helmet. "Now...I'll solve the formula to this problem."

The two then charge at each other. After clashing, Build goes on defense by blocking each of the kaiju's attacks, making the kaiju get cocky without realizing Build is only doing this to study its attacks. After a while, the saber's drill starts spinning as Build counters each of the attacks before knocking the kaiju's arms open and delivering a powerful slash as he moves past it making sparks come off its side. He then quickly turns, lands another hit across the kaiju's back, and then jumps a good distance back using the rabbit leg.

"How'd- Raaahhh!" The kaiju becomes enraged and charges at build. Build responds by taking out the hedgehog fullbottle, shakes it and twists the top, then enters it into the slot. (Harinezumi!) As a sound similar to the belts crank being turned starts along with a white energy wrapping around the weapon. (Solo Attack!) The weapon announced as Build pressed the trigger making spikes come out of the white energy, he first blocks the hit and then swings the saber breaking the rhino arm along with many sparks from all the spikes hitting the Imagin.

"Fine! Let's see which is better!" The Imagin shouts charging the Drill Crusher. Build takes out the bottle from the saber and repeats the process putting the dragon and firetruck in. (Dragon! Syoubousya!) The sound played again till Build pressed the trigger as the two launched their attacks. (Cross Combo!) Build sends a spiraling slash mixture of blue and regular colored fire. The attack clashes and struggles with the rhino shaped attack for a second till the slash breaks through, hits the kaiju and send it rolling back.

"AAAAHHHH!!" Build stops hearing someone screaming and looks away from the kaiju to see people trapped on the second floor with the floor on both their sides broken and ceiling cracking over them. "Shit!" Build was about to run to them till he's shot from behind. He turns back to see the kaiju turned the weapon into gun mode and shoots spiraling shots at him. "Two can play at that game." Build said as he guarded against the shots using his arm and then rotates his drill's hilt changing it to gun mode. He points it at the kaiju, pulls the trigger unleashing multiple shots one at a time from each barrel, blasting through the spiral shots and hitting the kaiju.

As the kaiju fell to the floor, Build ran and jumped up to the people while switching the rabbit and tank bottles with hedgehog and firetruck, and turns the crank. (Harinezumi! Syoubousya! Best Match! ... Are you ready!) "Build up." (Rescue kenzan! FireHedgehog! Yeah!) Build lands now being in FireHedgehog form as he then extends the spikes on his knuckle to stab into the ceiling and holds it up. He then extends the ladder cannon on his arm to the first floor.

"Get to safety now." Build ordered. The people comply sliding down the cannon. The Imagin kaiju gets up to see Build help the last of the people down, it starts shooting at him again with anger. "Not this time." Build said as he avoided the shot and then jumps down towards the kaiju while blocking and hitting the shots with the hedgehog side. As he reached the floor, he shot fire at the kaiju with the ladder cannon, then runs up to it as it recovered and strikes it a couple times with the spike knuckle before send the kaiju land on its back against the floor in the middle of the mall.

"It's about time to wrap this up."Build said as he inserted the rabbit and tank bottles into the Vortex Clasher. (Rabbit! Tank!) Build points the gun at the kaiju as it spins with whirls of red and blue circling it and then pulls the trigger after a second unleashing a big powerful shot. (Vortex Match!)

The Imagin jumps up to avoid the shot. "Too slow!" The kaiju shouted triumphantly.

"Later dumbass." Build said it, making the kaiju to look down at the shot that's just pressing against the ground. Before it could do anything, the shot bounced off the ground and rams into the kaiju sending it flying up and breaking through to the ceiling's window. "The laws of victory have been set!" Build shouted as he ran while turning the crank a couple time. As he stopped underneath the kaiju, Build extends the ladder cannon all the way to the kaiju in the sky and jams the cannon into it. The Imagin that started becoming round as water filled it. (Ready go! Vortex Finish! Yeah!) The ladder was then retracting with the Imagin back towards him as his knuckle's spikes extended with fire covering them and then trusts his knuckle into the kaiju causing an explosion.

When the smoke cleared, Build walks over to the side and picks the rhino fullbottle. "Another addition."

At the Shelter

The girls were hard at work finishing up bathing the animals till the ground and building started shaking.

"What the heck is going on? Is it a earthquake?" Rainbow asked.

Applejack's eyes go wide looking out the window. "Nope. We've got bigger trouble headin' our way. Look."

The girls look out to see the two Gigandeaths in the distance heading their way.

"Why must all these kaiju have to look so horrid?" Rarity said with a disgust look.

Pinkie ponders looking at the huge kaiju. "Maybe they'll leave us alone if we give them some cake."

Rainbow rolls her eyes. "Yeah, Pinkie. Why don't we have them come in and have them dance with Angel." She said full of sarcasm as she motions towards Fluttershy's white bunny.

"But Angel is way too small for either of them to dance with him." Pinkie said with a confused look making Rainbow slap a hand to her forehead.

"We need to get out of here." Applejack stated.

"But we can't leave the animals behind." Fluttershy said making a sad worried look at just the thought of leaving her animal friends behind. "We have to get them out first."

"Too late for either now!" Rainbow shouted as the Gigandeaths were now closing in on the shelter.

Decade and Den-o then show up coming in from both of the side streets and turn into the middle street with the kaiju in front of them. They kept charging towards the huge kaiju till they hit the breaks and slide sideways to a stop, ramming into the kaijus legs knocking them over.

"Don't even think about." Decade said as he got off his bike and opened his belt. "We're your opponents." He the puts a card in before closing the belt. (Attack Ride! Illusion!) Two copies of Decade appeared next to both his sides and they charged towards the huge kaiju while using another card. (Attack Ride! Blast!) The Decades each run to different sides it and shoot multiple shots at the kaiju while avoiding it swinging its arms at them. The Gigandeath then gathers a dark green energy into its fists and slams them into the ground creating a small explosion.

(Attack Ride! Slash!) The kaiju heard through the smoke now surrounding it. Two of the Decades came running through the smoke and slashed the legs of the kaiju making it tumble to its arms and knees. The third Decade came jumping out and slashes it across its face. The Gigandeath roars in pain while rubbing its face as Decade lands across from it panting. "I need to try hold out till the end."

Den-o was drive around and by the Gigandeath while avoiding its fists and chainsaw. He was also hitting it with as many slashes as he could while avoiding the saw. "Just fall already, idiot!" Den-o shouted at it. As the kaiju shoots out balls of energy at him, the Denrailer's red front glowed for a second and as the shot was about to hit, train rails appeared leading up with the bike following it. "What the hell?! What's this thing doing?!" As the Denrailer's rails then circled around the kaiju as it went by, the blades on both sides of the front wheel glowed and then rammed into the sides of the kaiju making it roar in pain. "Ah ha! Now we're talking. Let's go! Let's go!" Den-o then started circling, going by and under the Gigandeath hitting it with his sword and the blades of the bike.

"Hm...Decade!" Den-o shouts seeing the other Gigandeath beat Decade around. "Damn idiot! I knew he still hadn't recovered enough. Hang on, Idiot!" Den-o shouted as uses the Denrailer to knock the Gigandeath he's facing to its back and then turned back to ram into it. He dragged it into the other Gigandeath, knocking them both over. Den-o gets off his bike after stopping next to Decade. "You okay, idiot?"

"I-I'm...fine. " Decade said between pants. "We need to finish this while we both still can."

"Then let's end these bast-" Den-o is cut off as the Gigandeaths recovered and shot the blast of energy at them. "Damn it! We need to do something!"

Decade stopped panting as his eyes glowed for a second. "Got it. I'll try it." He said as he opened his case and pulls out a card that has a picture of two different images with a line splitting it in half to the side. One image is of Den-o on one half and the other is the image of a red demon looking being that changes to an image of a train-looking vehicle. Decade then looks to Den-o as he opens his belt and gets behind Den-o. "This will tickle a bit." (Final Form Ride! D-D-Den-o!)

"Hm? What do you- Wha!" Den-o yells as Decade put his hands on Den-o's back and then spread them apart making parts start appearing on him. "WHAT'S GOING ON?!" Decade then kicks Den-o making him spin floating in the air and transform into a small version of Denliner. As Den-o lands, the Denrailer's parts moved around a bit to turn itself into a train cart and connect to Den-o.

"May the chaos begin." Decade said as he jumps onto Den-o and Den-o's sword flying into his hand.

"I'll get you back for this! But for now, let's go! Let's go!" Den-o shouted as he started moving forward toward the Gigandeaths as they start shooting at them. Den-o was shooting back at them and then Decade slashing at both the huge kaiju as they went by a couple times. "Hit them with everything!" Decade knowing what he means, jumps off as Den-o's train sides open up a bit as the parts of the Denrailer move a bit as they both now show missiles and cannons. He then starts going wild shooting everything he has at the Gigandeaths, making them cry in pain.

The Gigandeaths fall flat to the floor. One looks ahead towards the shelter and charges a blast of energy. Decade notices this and moves in between the two as he puts a card into the belt and closes it. (Final Attack Ride! D-D-Decade!) A large row of cards appears in front of him facing towards the attacking kaiju. Decade points the case in gun mode and fires into the cards, the blast becoming more stronger each card it went into as it went twords the kaiju's attack. The blast struggle for a few seconds till Decade's went through the kaiju's and hits the Gigandeath make it rise and fall on top of the other.

Decade changes the case back to attache it back to his left side of his belt and pulls out a card from it. "I'd like to keep this going but I could really go for a good meal. Hm?" Decade looks towards the kaiju as it growls at him. He smiles under his helmet as he shows the front side of the card towards the kaiju. "I'm just your local chaotic Rider. Remember that." He said as he places the card that has Den-o's symbol on it into the belt and closes it. (Final Attack Ride! D-D-Den-o!)

The Denrailer disconnects from Den-o. "Now face our special attack." Den-o said as he and Denrailer form blades the same shape as his sword's and begin following Decade's movement on how he moves the swords. Decade makes the two strike the huge kaiju a couple times till he makes them rise over them. "Railer Version!" Den-o said as Decade then brought them down making the slash through the waist of the kaiju in an 'X' shape and makes them turn to slash through the necks making them explode.

As Den-o and Denrailer came to a stop on the ground, they transformed back. "I hate that feeling. I'll kill you if you do tha-" Den-o was saying angrily till he turns and finds Decade lying face flat on the ground. "Decade!" Den-o, along with the girls running out, ran over to him. "Dumbass, are you okay?!"

Decade groans. "Just get me back to the house." Everyone lets out a sigh of relief.

In the City

The chameleon Imagin was wreaking havoc with many people running away by shooting blasts of fire at buildings and using the Medajaribur whip to slice through objects and cars all around. When the cops showed up and fired at it, the kaiju found it amusing as it walked up to them while shots hitting the Imagin were doing nothing to it. As it reached them, the kaiju used its whip to cut their cars to pits and then proceeds to hit and throw the police officers around.

"Ah. Nothing can beat the sound of screams. Although..." The Imagin turned back towards the officers who go pale with fear hearing its sinister chuckle. "One thing that does come close is the screams of seeing others die in front of their eyes. So, do me a favor and...STOP BREATHING!!" The kaiju shouted swinging its whip at officers.

Right then, OOO came riding in between them and has the NeoRidevendor bite onto the whip and drags the Kaiju down the street making it slam into parked cars and poles. OOO stops with his bike letting go of the whip to send the Imagin crashing into a building. As the kaiju got itself out of the rubble, the NeoRidevendor comes to a stop and OOO gets off while grabbing a sword from the side of his bike.

This sword was exactly like Medajaribur but with a bit of a bulkier look with the linings on the inside are of 6 different colors from top to bottom being red, yellow, green, silver, blue, and orange with the silver on the medal slot changed to purple, the storage window on the sword was now covered by a part having a similar look to the O Scanner, and the blade's color was now an emerald, green color. The sword is known as Medajaribur Ver. Scanner.

"You know if you really wanted a fight, then you should pick on someone your own size." OOO said as he walked up to the Imagin while resting his sword on his shoulder.

"Is that so?" The Imagin said dusting off its right shoulder. "Are you offering yourself as a sacrifice?"

OOO scoffs. "Nope. Sorry pal. But I'll be happy to be your opponent and crush that twisted desire of yours." OOO then gets into a stance while holding his sword at the ready. "Now, I shall judge your greed."

The Imagin was about to use its whip, but OOO use the batta legs to get close to keep it from using the whip part of its weapon and the two start exchanging clashes of their swords. OOO makes a mistake of jumping back from a strike from the kaiju and giving it the chance to use its whip. OOO keeps dodging the whip till the kaiju stop. "I doubt you can avoid this." The Imagin said as waved its whip around the air making multiple green spinning mantis blades.

"We'll see about that." OOO says as he turns to the NeoRidevendor and holds out his left hand to it. "Neo! The Medabuster!" He calls out which the bike responds with a roar and launches a gun from the back to OOO's hand. The gun weapon being most black with lines in it like the Medajaribur. The linings were red with the edges being silver. It has a slot and lever on it, just like the sword. "Let's get started!"

He just goes charging in as the Imagin launches the blades, which OOO uses his gun to shoot through some, slash through others and used the batta legs to jump avoiding the blades or kicking to counter them. "What?" The Imagin said being surprised but then makes an angry growl seeing that OOO seems to be enjoying himself. "Fine. Let's how he handles this." The kaiju says with a hiss as it camouflaged itself while OOO was distracted with the mantis blades. The Imagin started getting closer not making any noise. OOO barely noticed the Imagin gone and begins looking around with his eyes glowing a bit.

As the Imagin jumps at him as OOO's line of sight turned towards it. To the kaiju's surprise, OOO jumped onto his back and fires at the Imagin making sparks and silver medals fly off it as it falls back. "Did you really think that'd work? Sorry but the taka helmet can easily find you." OOO picked up a couple of the silver medals. "I could put these cell medals to use."

"Why don't we test that sight of yours then." The Imagin said as it created the mantis blades again but makes them bigger and spin faster. OOO noticed strong winds start to form around and lifts up objects and wreckage off the ground. The kaiju then started swinging it whip around wildly making it slice through buildings along with parts of the street and cutting objects apart to completely cover the area. The Imagin then camouflaged again as it sneakily kept moving around the area.

"Where'd he-Ah!" OOO gets hit from behind. He looks around the area trying to spot the kaiju but couldn't from everything around shielding it. "Now he just made this annoying." He was able to see mantis blades headed towards him in time to shot or block them but every time he did, the Imagin would attack him from the back or sides.

"WHAT'S THE MATTER, OOO? CAN'T KEEP UP? The Imagin yelled out as it continued attacking OOO. He continued taking the attacks till an idea pop into his head and pulls out the horse, pegasus and bat medals. OOO tilt's the belt up and removes all three medals and inserts the horse and pegasus medals. He hesitates putting the bat medal in and looks at it.

"Please lend me your power." He said as he put the bat medal in and tilts the belt sideways as he then runs the scanner. (Komori! Pegasus! Uma!) OOO flies up after the form changed to the uma legs and pegasus arms. The helmet changed to light gray as the hawk shape changed. The face hawk's wings changed to the shape of open bat wings, the eyes turned to a yellow color along with the forehead, where a small gem was at, had the image of a bat's face on it with the gem in the mouth, and two small spikes come out above the image to act as the bat's ears.

Activating the bat's power, OOO is focusing on finding the Imagin by using echo location. He sees all the blades heading towards him and proceeds to put two cell medals into the gun after having placed the sword on his back. The Medabuster makes a power charging noise that gets loader as he put the second medal in. (Twin Charge!) OOO hovers in place till last second, then flies straight up dodging the blades and then points the gun down towards them pulling the trigger. (Scatter Cell!) Multiple shots are fired out destroying all the blades at once.

OOO sees the Imagin trying to sneak attack him again with the whip by using echo location again. "Not this time." He then quickly uses his sword to block and the coil the whip around. OOO then creates a storm cloud, to hit the whip with lightning that electrocutes the kaiju, stunning it and then flies up to it. As the Imagin recovered, OOO flew up to it and begins delivering powerful kicks to its chest making many sparks and cell medals fly off it. He hits the kaiju with one more kick, then flips back landing on his feet while taking a deep breath, and then releases a hyper screech that hits the Imagin, sending it flying out of the field it created.

(Single Charge!) The gun announced as OOO put a medal in and pulled the trigger. (Cell shot!) He then started flying in a huge circle around the debris, making a strong cyclone while destroying the big blades with the powered gun shots, and lets all the debris land softly by using the cyclone's wind. "I think it's about time we end this." OOO said looking towards the Imagin as he takes out the unicorn medal and puts it into the gun's slot. (Core Charge!) The gun starts charging magic towards the barrel as OOO slowly points it towards the kaiju. "Now I'll show you the true strength of desire."

He then pulls the trigger as the kaiju stood up, firing a magical blast making the shape of a unicorn's horn, hitting the kaiju and freezing it completely in place. OOO then quickly drops the gun to take out and put the tiger medal into the sword making a scan noise. (Tora!) He then flew low towards the kaiju and pulled the trigger as he got close. (Tora Claw!) The swords blade turned yellow and made two other yellow blades on both sides of it. "Seiya!" OOO yelled as he sliced the Imagin into four pieces and explodes after flying past it with cell medals flying everywhere.

The mantis medal flies out of the explosion, OOO notices it and flies up catching it. "And they thought the bat medal was evil." OOO was smiling till a bunch of cell medals came raining down on him.

The Outskirts of the City

Chief Dusk and Detective Shining after having helped everyone they could, had been following after Zero-One and Jurassic who had dragged off the kaiju somewhere. They had found themselves at a construction site where the fence blocking the entrance seemed to have been smashed through. Dusk and Shining carefully made their way in and look around till they heard a commotion coming from two different parts of the site.

Not wanting take chances, Dusk has Shining stay by his side as they go check the middle of the site. There they unfortunately found Zero-One battling the Shark Raider whose teeth blades come close to getting them by passing over their heads. They ducked to the floor, then look up ahead to see Zero-One mostly just avoiding the teeth.

"Is that all you're going to do, Zero-One?" The Raider asked angerly while continuously attacking him. "You didn't seem like much of a coward before. Your friends at least had the backbone to face me." As the Raider tried closing the teeth on Zero-One but he avoids them by jumping back a good distance and then shows the Raider a progrise key with a white color having the image of a feline-type of animal with the words 'Striking Liger' and 'ABILITY CLAW'.

"Then the warm up ends here." Zero-One said as he slid the belt close, pulling the hopper key out and presses the new key's button and presses it to the belt's right side. (Claw! Authorize!) As the standby music plays and the Raider tries attacking him, a mechanical white liger comes crashing through the ceiling and in one claw strike, breaks all the teeth blades. "Let's go liger." Zero-One then inserts the key. (Progrise!) The liger separated into six pieces as Zero-One's face split in half moving to the sides of the head, the top of the chest shifts to the shoulders, and the leg's armor shifting to the back.

(Force! Strength! Speed! Striking Liger! Fierce claws that break the enemy with powerful strikes!) The belt said as the liger pieces became a white chest piece with two yellow lines in the middle making look like eyes and a head, the whole bottom of both arms and hands gained white armor with yellow claws at the tip of his fingers, knuckles and a yellow pointed piece going up to the elbows, the front of the legs became white with the sides having a pointed fur look and yellow in the shape of claws at the front of the feet, and a new face having yellow eyes along with a lion mane-like look on both sides of the face and top of the head with some going to the hopper face pieces to form ears,

The Raider chuckles watching Zero-One getting into stance. "Interesting. Show me what your liger can do." After the Raider does the same the two charge each other. The Raider still tried using the teeth blades to attack but Zero-One's new form made it easy for him to strike them down with his fists and kicks as he continued towards the kaiju. When he reached it and the Raider tried using its fins, Zero-One countered using his own arms making sparks fly with each counter till he caught and wraps his left arm around both the Raider's arms.

While holding it in place. he uses the claws on his knuckle as a brass knuckle to hit the Raider with multiple punches making sparks fly and it tumbles back. As the Raider growled with fury trying to recover, Zero-One got it with three claw strikes with his hands and did a sweep kick at the Raider's legs making a claw streak knocking it on its back. And then sent the Raider sliding back with a claw slash that dragged it along the ground.

The Raider gets up in fury and summon out the Attache Calibur. "I WILL NOT LOSE TO YOU AGAIN!!" It said full of anger. Zero-One's belt shot out a laser printer like line that creates two large black progrise key shaped objects with a bit of red on one and blue on the other. The one with red has a piece slide forward to reveal a handle and unfolds the front to make a dagger. While the second one unfolded part way, rotates around and to the other side to fold back down with the bottom having a handle too making it a gun. These are the Progrise Dagger and Progrise Gunner. The Raider stomps in anger and then charges at Zero-One while also pressing the button on the Raidriser. (Biting Bolide!)

As the Raider sent shark teeth at him, Zero-One shot through most of them as he charged to meet the Raider and then started clashing blades as soon as they reached each other. They both either clashed or avoided the others strike, making the battle seem so even and epic leaving the two officers who are watching speechless. Zero-One eventually was able to land a hit with his dagger and then quick hits it with another six slashes. Before the Raider recovered, Zero-One spins around once to deliver a kick sending it flying back.

The Raider gets up roaring in fury and then takes out its other progrise key. (Magma!) It then puts the key into the sword, then closes up the sword and opens it again. (Progrisekey confirmed! Ready to utilize! Unicorn's Ability! Chargerize! Full Charge!)

"I could let anything done at me go. But the second you hurt or threaten my friends and loved ones, don't expect any mercy from me." Zero-One then holds the dagger and gun against each other while aligning the triangle shapes on both with each other making a connection sound and then holds it against the belt. (Twin Access Charge!) Zero-One points a finger to the Raider and then to himself. "There's only one who can stop you. And that's me." The two then get into stances and then slash forward with their weapons. (Volcanic Kaban Dynamic!) (Unison Slash!)

The volcanic and power purple slashes collide and struggle for a while. Zero-One then uses the gun. (Cross Blast!) He shoots a purple blast from the gun that hits and boosts his slash helping it break through the slash. The Raider just tries guarding the combined attack as it drags him into the wall. It thinks it survived as the attack ended till he hears Zero-One's belt. (Striking! Impact!) The Raider looks up in time to see Zero-One slam his right hand into its chest and drags it along with him through the wall. Energy builds up into his hand as he and the Raider go through walls but stops slamming the Raider into a large pillar and then slashes through the two while leaving a claw streak.

(Striking! Impact!) As Dusk and Shining get into the area to see this, the explosion of the Raider throws them back, slamming into a wall and fall to the floor out cold. Zero-One not having noticed, picks up the shark key and looks over to Molten using the Attache Calibur to stand. He the takes out a completely silver progrise key and it starts taking data from the sword after he pushed the button and held it towards the sword. (Data Retrieved) "There. Now you won't be the one to have the Attache Calibur."

Molten glares at him as darkness surrounds him. "One day, Zero-One. I'll end you. Till then, don't you dare lose to anyone." With that, he was gone,

On the Roof

Jurassic has sparks flying off as his chest as he goes sliding across the ground. He gets up and looks ahead to stare at Scarlet who laughs at him.

"Did you really think you could beat me on your own? Not a chance." She chuckles seeing him tighten his fist. "If you beg, I might be willing to let you be my pet." She becomes annoyed when he laughs at her offer. "Are you really that willing to die?"

"Nope. I just think you're too full of confidence."

"Why shouldn't I? As far as I can see you're nothing to fear."

"Your right. I'm nothing to fear. because I don't bring fear. I'm a Kamen Rider. A warrior who will protect the innocent and help bring out the core of their hearts. So, let's put an end to the misuse of that core. Blaze!" Jurassic shouts making the little rex jumping out from the floor with an object in his mouth and tosses it to Jurassic who catches it.

The object is a gun looking weapon with a guard in front of the handle. The middle of the barrel and handle being silver and the rest being obsidian black with a round clear green grid screen above the handle. Jurassic changes the gun by straighten it and then holds the screen side of the in front of the core slot of the belt causing a rex skull to appear on the screen. (Tyranno Sword!) Obsidian builds up around the barrel and shatters to reveal a sword made of an obsidian black metal with silver spine going through the middle of the sword with a clear red bladed edge.

"I'll test your strength this time." Jurassic shouts charging towards Scarlet with her doing the same. The two clash swords as Jurassic easily counters against her and Scarlet tries slashing at him with her swords. They clash and counter each other till he blocks both her swords to shove her arms apart, to then bring his sword onto her shoulder and slashes it across her chest making sparks fly off.

"What? But how-" Jurassic uses Scarlet's confusion as a chance to hit one of her swords out her hands and slashes her across her chest again. "Your attacks shouldn't be able to be able to hurt me. It didn't before." Scarlet was saying as the two dodge, clashed, or avoided each other's swords.

"That's because the original warrior this core came from was a knight. Meaning it's stronger when using the weapon the warrior originally used." Jurassic was saying as he kept blocking Scarlets attacks and then held her in place as the two tried pushing each other back. "Meaning there's no reason to hold back now!" Jurassic shouted as he adds strength pressing against and breaks Scarlet's sword. He then delivers a couple of punches and slashes till he uses his belt. (Crushing! Stomp!) He sends Scarlet flying back by turning sideways and delivering a red crystal rex foot kick to her chest.

"Riotooze!" Scarlet shouted snapping her fingers making Riotoozes appear between them. "GET HIM!" She shouted with rage pointing at Jurassic. The Riotoozes begin attacking Jurassic who just mows through them by mostly slashing them down, while blocking to either punch or kick the others. While he was fighting the Riotoozes, Scarlet runs to the sword that was hit out of her hand.

Jurassic finishes them using the belt. (Flaming!) He turns in a circle while breathing fire out at all the rest of the Riotoozes. "I suggest you quit while you're ahead." Jurassic said before turning around to look at Scarlet, who now has her other sword again.

"There no way I'll give in to you Riders! I refuse to be as low of a failure as Molten!" She begins building up energy into her sword and the blades on her body. "I REFUSE! I REFUSE! I REFUSE!" Scarlet starts spinning becoming like a large spinning top with blades coming out of it.

"Then I'll show you just how wrong you are." Jurassic places the screen of the sword against the core slot of the belt again and makes a confirmation noise. (B-B-Blaze!) The sword kept repeating with a guitar noise playing with it and fire circling it. Jurassic gets into a pose and waits as Scarlet started move towards him. Right at last second, Jurassic turns in the direction he predicted she would go. Getting it right he swings the sword towards her while pushing the trigger. (Tyranno Crushing Fang!)

"AAAAHHHH!!" Scarlet screamed out in pain as a powerful slash of red aura and fire is unleashed from Jurassic's sword, hitting and drags her off the edge. The slash goes through her, and she explodes the next second. Jurassic looks at the explosion till he sees Blase down below grab something and throws it up to him.

Jurassic catches it with his left hand and sees it's the same as the last primal core, being a clear silver crystal with a fang in it. He then looks towards what's left of the smoke cloud from the explosion and then holds his sword against his chest. "Extinction."

Dusk wakes up and looks around to see that the battle seemed to be over from the sounds having stopped. He then nudges Shining wake groaning from his head feeling shaken up.

"Is that brain of yours still alive in there, right?" Dusk asked getting up and moving towards the spot the kaiju exploded.

"Yeah. Still as jumbled as it'" Shining asked shakingly standing up. He then notices where his uncle had walked to. "Who or what were those? Because neither of those were human for sure."

Dusk makes an uncertain look. "I'm not so sure about that?" Dusk something under his breath catching Shining's attention.

"Huh? Did you say something, Chief."

Dusk shakes his head. "Nothing. But even if either of them is human, what both sides are doing is still unacceptable."

"I'm just more worried how things are gonna be for now on." Shining says as he looks at all the damage done around.

Canterlot High

It was now the next day in the afternoon, the guys were now eating lunch with the girls, except for Discord who had to take another day off to rest up. They had gotten back to the cafe yesterday after having lost the few cops and news copters that chased them. It turned out to be easy from the fact Zea predicted this outcome and had Orbital set a spell for the bikes to take a normal form when the guys weren't in Rider form. So, they just had to get out of sight and undo their transformations.

Rainbow slams a hand on the table. "I can't believe this! They're labeling the Riders as dangerous vigilantes!" She shouted while looking at her phone. "Do those boneheads not remember who saved their sorry asses?"

Connor shrugs. "We'll when you look at it from their point of view, we technically are." He tries leaning back when Rainbow comes close face to face.

"Don't just be fine with it!" She looks to the rest of the guys, "Doesn't this bug any of you?"

"Not really." Drago answered. "I mean not everyone is gonna be on our side. What really matters is just stopping Molten, Scarlet and the kaijus."

"Plus" Negi said cutting in. "We're happy with the little support we get." He shows them the school paper which Pinkie snatches in a flash.

"Once again the mysterious masked heroes know showed up in our time in need. Risking their lives to protect and defend us." Pinkie read out loud. "Like the one known as Build, he ended up saving the life of people trapped on the second floor of the mall and save one of our fellow classmates, Rumble from being crushed. Did you really, Connor?" She asked a bit loudly.

"Yes, Pinkie, but keep it down." Connor warned. Rarity took the paper and continued.

Rarity took the paper and continued reading. "Along with OOO saving officers from being sliced to bits. While Jurassic and Zero-One took the kaiju away from endangering anyone else. There was even talk of two huge kaiju having been delt with before they could harm our local animal shelter. Many might not see them in a good light, like how the police see them. But if you ask anyone in this school what we believe, we all believe they're heroes who will show up in our time of need or darkest hour to bring light back to us." Rarity smiles. "I completely agree."

Applejack nodded in agreement. "No doubt about that."

Fluttershy looks around. "Where's Reiji?"

Everyone barely realizes this and don't see him anywhere around. "Maybe...he's in the bathroom?" Ressha suggested questioning it himself.

Reiji was running around the school looking for the girl from yesterday. He had run just about everywhere around school. He'd gone to the cafeteria, gym, library, classrooms, and even the principal's office. He was thinking of giving up till he sees her walking down a hallway. He smiles running up behind her and then just walks quietly behind her without her noticing for a while with a smirk.

"You're hard to find." He said startling her.

"Ah! W-When'd you get here?" She asks with a hand over her chest from the scare but then goes wided eyed from surprise. "Wait. You...remember me?"

Reiji raised a brow smiling. "Yeah I remember you. Why wouldn't I?"

She looks away with a sad look. "I don't know. Everyone...just seems to forget me." She looks back to him. "How are you able to remember me?"

"I'm not sure." Reiji answers only half serious while fiddling with a core medal in his pocket with a thought in mind. "So, do you mind telling me your name now?" She looks at him looking uncertain if she should. "Well you don't have to tell me. I'd be fine just hanging out with you from time to time. Since I want to get to know as many people as I can. So I won't be able to hangout sometimes." He holds out his hand to her. "What do you say? Want to be friends." She looks away making him feel a bit down.

"Wallflower." She says quietly. Confusing him till she looks back and shakes his hand. "My name is Wallflower Blush. I hope we can be good friends."

Chapter 3- Primevals and Desires

The Dragons Cavern

It had been 2 days since the battle the kaiju, the guys were working around the cafe on a Sunday as a way to repay Emerald. While Discord and Reiji are working at the library counter, Drago and the rest were cleaning tables, taking orders and working the register.

Things had been going well at first but every now and then, Connor and Ressha would see a table clean but then have things on it again, Negi would find that the order would come out wrong and have to apologize, or Drago would see that the register add up the amount wrong. After this continued, Drago decided to write the amount instead on a notepad, only for the same thing to happen. He ends up getting fed up with it and slams the notepad onto the counter.

"Discord! Enough!" Drago shouted looking to him. "I get you're bored, but it doesn't mean you have to take it out on us. Besides you agreed to this too when we decided to live here." Discord just waves him off with a bored look. "I'm serious Discord, you continue this, then we'll settle this the way we always do outside."

"What's going on? Did Discord do something?" Negi asks as he, Connor and Ressha walks up Drago.

"Yes." Drago said with a hiss as he cracked his knuckles seeing Discord not taking him seriously. "Discord messing with us is my problem."

"Wait. You mean the trouble we've been having is because of him?" Connor asked with an annoyed look.

Drago sighs nodding. "Yes. Which is why-" He's interrupted by the sounds of things crashing and falling. "Looks like someone else beat me to the punch." Drago said as they turned to see Ressha who's now Momo fighting with Discord.

Momo throws him over the counter and jumps onto the counter. "I should've guessed you were the one being a pain in my ass, you scrambled bastard!" 'Momo calm down.' "Hell no, Ressha! I'm gonna beat that asshole's scrambled brain into order!" Momo shouted as he jumped at him.

"Oh yeah?" Discord said as he caught, rolled himself along with and threw Momo into a table that had customers. "Then bring it!" Discord shouted smiling as Momo got up and the customers were either moved or left.

"Why you- Uh!" Momo stopped moving. 'Momo?'

The guys got confused. "Momo? You alright up there, bud?" Connor called out.

A yellow aura flows over Momo as his red spikey tipped black hair turned long being tied back into a ponytail with a yellow streak going down the left side of his hair and eye color changing to yellow too. The guys go speechless seeing this till this new Ressha lifts up his leg and slams his foot onto the floor, making the whole building shake with books, shelves and other things falling over.

"Ah." Ressha says softly as he starts stretching. "It's good to finally be out," 'Who the hell is this?!/Momo? If you're here, who's in control?'

Drago and the guys were about to question him till they stopped upon feeling a killing intent. All the guys slowly turned to the cafe's counter and started sweating seeing Emerald smiling at them, but they could easily feel the anger emanating off from her.

"We're so dead." Connor says out loud.

"I'm killing you later for this." Drago hissed to Discord.

Discord smiles. "Worth it."

Mean While

The sounds of things falling, crashing and toppling over could be heard coming from inside a post office. A couple seconds later a female post office work came walking out with a light bluish gray skinned girl with light grayish olive long hair and crossed eyes color were a gold color, wearing a light blue dress shirt with the collar and end of the sleeves being a darker color with a white under shirt and yellow tie, green skirt, white socks with yellow circling the top, and green wedge sandals with an orange strap.

"Sorry, kid. But I don't think it'd be good to have working here." The female worker told her. "Well...Your name is Derpy, right? Maybe you'll have better luck looking somewhere else for a job."

Derpy sighs sadly. "I don't know. I've already tried and gotten rejected or let go at a couple of other places."

"Oh. Sorry. I wish we could help but" The worker pauses to look away. "we can't have someone who wrecks the place and gets the letters scattered around. I wish you luck on finding a job." The lady said as she went back into the building.

"Thanks." Derpy mumbled sadly as she started walking off. "I guess I'll go home. What am I going to do? At this rate I'm not going be able to be of any help. Huh?" She continued walking till someone in a long black cloak walked in her path. "Um...Hello. Do I know you? Or is there something I can do for you?"

"No. But I could help you." The mysterious person.

Derpy tilts her head sideways confused. "What do you mean?"

"I'm glad you asked." The mysterious person said smiling under their hood as they held out a primal core and Derpy looks like she goes into a trance along with a glowing orb with a small hole in the middle appearing on her chest. "Become complete with this and feel whole again." The person said as they place the core into the orb's hole, darkening the color of the glow and a symbol of a fan appearing in it. "Be reawakened anew."

"W-what's going on?" Derpy asks feeling dizzy as the orb flies off her and starts forming into something landing on the ground next to the mysterious person. "Why's everything spinning?"

"Nothing to worry about." The person said watching the orb taking the shape of a girl and then turns back to Derpy with a smile in view. "We should put that desire of yours to use as well." They said flipping an orange medal with the image of a shrimp.

[Cue Opening]

Canterlot High

It had been three days since the guys almost got roasted alive by Emerald. Everyone was in separate classes as Applejack, Drago and Negi are in P.E. class running laps around the soccer field as she laughed at the story, they had just told her.

"So, Emerald must've given all ya a hard time for that mess."

"You don't know the half of it." Negi replied. "It's especially been hard on Ressha. He's been trying his best keeping Momo and Griz from taking over him."

"Griz is the new magic...mind thing of Ressha's right?" Applejack asked.

Drago nodded. "Yup. Short for Grizzly. It was the only passable name we could think of."

Applejack raised a brow. "Ah see. Though why is he tryin' ta keep them reeled in? Wouldn't that just agitate Momo?"

"Yes. But he has no choice." Negi answers. "Momo is still mad at Discord. So, every time he's out, he starts a fight with Discord. And Griz likes to test out his strength and body. Meaning he'll break, bend, smash, lift, throw and anything else strength can be used on. When they do manage to take over, we had to deal with them."

"Along with the aftermath of either of the two's fiascos." Drago added.

"Sounds like a real handful." Applejack and the two paused as they finished their laps and took a small breather. "Ya know," She pauses pondering a thought. "Why not let them blow off the steam instead?" She suggests making the guys freezing to a stop and then smacking their hands to their heads. She chuckles and smiles at their reactions. "I'm guessin' they've been annoying ya so much the thought slipped your mind." The two just answered by nodding.

Meanwhile in the School

Ressha makes an exhausted sigh. "What am I gonna do with these two." He said to himself as he walked through the halls. He'd been dealing with his other selves arguing in his head and keeping either one from possessing him. Right now, he was blocking out the two voices. "Maybe I should try talking some reason into those two. Hm?"

Ressha gets pulled from his thoughts when he hears a lot of noises coming from a classroom with the door open. Being curious, he walked closer and peaks into the room the science classroom with every student was wearing lab coats from having done an experiment.

Everyone seemed to be circled around someone who he believes the name of was Derpy. She introduced herself when he first met her and always says hi to him every day. But he noticed something different. Besides her hair looking a bit lighter to him and tied into a ponytail, her eyes weren't cross eyed, but no one seemed to notice. He sees Rarity and walks over to her.

"What's going on here?" Ressha asks. 'Finally I'm back in!'

"Oh. Hi Ressha." Rarity happily greeted. "Everyone is praising Derpy for having done so well without blowing anything up or filling the room with smoke. She's actually been doing really well lately with everyone on projects and schoolwork. Making everyone happy and grateful, including myself as well." She had said while putting away a full-face mask.

'I can see what she's grateful for.' Ressha smiles. "I can see tell." He then looks curiously at Derpy. "Does something seem strange about her?" 'Yeah. Something seems fishy about the bubble head.'

Rarity raised a brow. "What do you mean?" She asked earning her a questioning look from him.

"Didn't you notice her hair and eyes?" 'Wait! What's that?' "What's what?" Ressha asks himself confused as he looks Rarity over till he notices a feather on her. He takes it off and looks it over not noticing Rarity seem dizzy for a second. "What's this?" 'Not sure. But it's definitely giving off magic.'

After the dizziness passes, Rarity looks at Derpy questioningly. "What happened to Derpy's eyes and hair?"

Ressha looks as the feather disappeared and then looked to Derpy. "I'm curious about that too."

Later That Day

After school Drago had gone to a park near the cafe to train and practice magic with the guys. It was mostly to let Momo blow off steam and let Griz use his strength. Though it was actually only Drago, Discord and Ressha. Negi had gone to help Applejack at her farm as a way to repay her for his bike. While Connor and Reiji had gotten dragged away by Pinkie Pie to help her get multiple parties planned and ready for the next upcoming week.

Rarity and Rainbow had gone along with them. Rainbow had gone wanting to practice along with the guys. Rarity only tagged along because she and Ressha wanted to tell the group about the feather and Derpy. Though for now Rarity was just sitting to the sidelines thinking and sketching new design ideas, Drago was sparring normally with Rainbow, while Discord and Momo were using magic against each other.

"Don't just attack. Think and improvise depending on how the fight goes." Instructed Drago as he kept avoiding Rainbow's attacks with ease.

Rainbow frowns. "How about you stop running you mouth and actually try fighting." She said as she tries a sweep kick and then a right hook that Drago catches with a grin. "Uh-oh."

"As you wish." He responded quickly used his strength to flip her over him slamming onto the grass floor, Rainbow tried to quickly get up but he tripped her by returning the sweep kick, pins her down, and then brings down his fist but stops an inch from her neck. "You got a long way to go before you can actually fight anyone." He held out a hand to help her up, after getting off her, which she accepted.

"Dang. I'll get you back for that next time." Rainbow says annoyed. "You have to teach me how you did that?"

"Years of practice and training. It's not something you can learn in a day." Drago then looks to Discord and Momo who are leaving holes everywhere their attacks either landed or collided. "Which is probably how long it's going to take these two to get along again."

"Stand still, you mismatch bastard!" Momo yelled as he sent a red slash at Discord, who just uses his magic to flick it back. 'Momo, calm down.' "Fight me head on already!" He shouted as he charged at Discord running through the slash by smashing it to bits with his sword.

Discord smirks. "Are you sure that's what you want?" He teleported saying this and appeared a good distance behind Momo with his belt on. (Kamen Ride! Decade!) "Then don't expect any mercy."

"Two can play that game." Momo responded putting on his belt and pushes the red button. 'Don't you think you two are taking this too far?' "Henshin!" (Sword Form!) The belt said as the pass went by it. "I'm gonna enjoy beating the hell out of you."

Rarity walks over next to Drago and Rainbow. "Shouldn't you stop them?" She asked as they watched the two Riders start circling around each other making their swords. "I can't imagine this ending well."

"No way! This will be awesome to watch!" Rainbow smiles watching eagerly.

"Plus, would you want to get in between them?" Drago pointed out as he leans against a tree.

"Most definitely not." Rarity answered watching as well.

'Please think this through.' The two stopped getting into stances and waited a few seconds before charging at each other. "Let's g- Ah!" Den-o is cut off as someone rams into him and Decade as they were about to clash. Drago and the girls run over to the two as Den-o turns the person over.

"Hey! watch where you're- What?!" Den-o shouted angrily till he was surprised to find Derpy on them breathing heavily and looking a bit pale. 'Derby!' Ressha takes back control, as his transformation comes undone. "Derpy! Derpy! What's wrong?" Ressha shouted to her as the others ran over to them.

Rarity gasped seeing the state she's in. "My goodness! What happened to her?"

"Did a kaiju do this?" Ressha asked as Drago looked her over.

"Blaze!" Drago called out making the little rex jumping out of his bag and running over to them. "Please check her over for us." The little rex roars in confirmation as it looked her over.

Rainbow raised a brow. "Why are you having Blaze check her over instead of taking her home or to the hospital?"

"Because if I'm right, we'll need to hurry to save her." As Blaze was checking her, Drago felt a presence and started looking around. "Heads up, Decade. I think we have company." Saying this, a bunch of Riotoozes spawned in front of them.

"Look's like the game has changed." Decade looks to the others. "Ressha, you and the girls get Derpy back to the cafe. She should be safe there. Me and Drago will deal with them." He brought up his sword again and Drago brings out his Excacore in gun mode.

Ressha nods. "Got it le-" He was telling the girls till he's cut off and possessed by Griz. "I won't turn my back on any enemy." Griz stated as he creates a weapon like Momo, but the magic was yellow and became the shape of an axe. 'What the hell?! If we're gonna fight, I should be the one in control, Griz!/Griz? What are you doing?' "I'll crush them with my strength."

He then went charging in attacking the Riotoozes. Griz swung his axe cutting cleanly through a couple of them, as one came charging at him, he slammed his left palm into its chest and sends it flying into a group of them.

"Damn it." Drago said to himself. "We need to get Derpy to safety. So, you're gonna have to deal with them without me." He said to Decade.

"Please. They're just goo. I doubt they'll be much of a challenge." Decade then joined the fight slashing them down as he blocked or dodged their attacks.

"I'll leave it to you then." Drago then looks to Rainbow and Rarity who are helping Derpy stand. "Let's go."

The mysterious person in the cloak was watching Decade and Griz fighting the Riotoozes as Dargo and the girls ran off with Derpy. "I underestimated the girl's strength. No one should still be able to move in that condition. I doubt going after Jurassic would be in my best interest." The person notices how the two fighting were their own fights. "Hm. Those two don't seem to be much of a team."

Decade used the slash card to destroy a whole group of Riotoozes as the went running through and slashing them down. He then switched his case to gun mode and begins shooting each one down till he noticed Griz handling a whole group.

"Hey, Griz. If you're so strong, shouldn't you already had been able to defeat them?" Decade mockingly asked.

Griz answered by taking down a whole group circled around him by stomping down on the ground making a yellow aura wave that knock the Riotoozes into the air and then cut through them in one swing of his axe as they fell back down.

"Show off." Decade said in a bored tone. "Hm?" He notices large bubbles start floating into the area. The bubbles start getting closer to them. "Great. Now the villains are now using bubble machines. Better take care of this before it becomes a problem. Uh?" Decade was about to use a card till he noticed Griz.

'Is Pinkie Pie nearby?' Griz looks at the bubbles annoyed. "These things aren't taking us seriously if they're resorted to using bubbles on me." 'I don't think you should take the bubbles lightly.'

"Griz. Don't think about it." Decade warns but Griz ignores him. "Griz!" He still doesn't listen as he lifts his axe. "GRIZ! NO!" Decade yells out running as quick as he could avoiding the bubbles and takes out two cards. He switched the case to gun mode again to shoot the axe out of Griz's hand and quickly uses the cards after he shoved Griz to the ground. (Attack Ride! Illusion!/Attack Ride! Blast!) Decade split into three and then they all shot every bubble around them, which each caused a big explosion. "AAAHHH!!"

"Decade!" Momo shouted. Ressha had suppressed Griz for Momo to take over. He slowly got up from his body hurting a bit with Decade doing the same but had taken most of the explosion. "Are you alright?"

"Fine as a jigsaw puzzle." Decade said as he looks ahead of them. "Though I think they have the advantage now." Saying that the two then see two kaiju walking up to them.

One kaiju looks similar to Molten and Scarlet's lizard humanoid forms. This one looked female with blueish gray colored scales with some looking as if they're in the shape of a kimono and yellow feather looking crystals going along the back of its arms and legs, also black colored crystals going around its waist acting like a skirt, a combination of both going around the head, and a large sized black crystal feather attached sideways on its back.

The second was what looked like a humanoid kaiju being a fusion of a pegasus and what looks like a shrimp. It mostly had a pegasus like body with wings, hoof shaped feet and knuckles, along with a short yellow mane on the head. It had shrimp shell shaped armor on its legs, shoulders, and waist, with shrimp legs acting as clawed fingers and has huge shrimp eyes on the sides of the human shaped head and antennas coming out the forehead.

Momo transforms again. (Sword Form) "You think you can handle the ugly one while I go for the other?" Asked Den-o as he got his sword ready.

"Not sure about the seafood but the primeval is a different matter." Decade answered trying his best to stay standing.

Den-o turns to Decade. "Priwhat? I'll just call it feather bastard. Let's just get them!" Shouted Den-o charging at the kaiju. 'Maybe charging at them isn't a good idea.'

The first kaiju summons out two black feathers holding them like daggers and runs to meet Den-o head on but it slides past him dodging his sword. "Uh?!" Den-o said surprised and the got hit across the chest before he could get a chance to react. "Ah! What was that?" Den-o looks at his chest before looking back to the kaiju. 'Its quick.' He sees the kaiju opens the black feathers like folding fan to show sharp yellow crystal feathers. "So that's how you want to play."

Decade was about to shoot it from behind but then notices bubbles and rolls out of way in time as they explode touching the ground. "I guess I'll need to get rid of you first."

"Sadly, we don't have time for that." The two turned to the voice and see the mysterious person.

"Who the hell are you?" Den-o asks pointing his sword towards them.

"None of your concern. Microraptor! Desire! Enough toying with them!" Yelled out the person.

The Shrimp Desire inhales deeply before blowing out bubbles all around the Riders. "Shit!" Den-o and Decade both said as Microraptor created two cyclones with its fans. The cyclones begin circling the Riders making the fly into them and exploding upon impact. "AAAHHHH!!" The two screamed out in pain falling to the floor.

The mysterious person chuckles seeing the Riders try to stand. "Pathetic. Finish them." The kaiju advance towards the Riders hearing the order. (Tyranno Crushing Fang!) The Shrimp Desire turns hearing this and get slashed across the face as Jurassic went driving by it and headed straight towards Microraptor.

As Microraptor created and sent cyclones at Jurassic, he canceled the sword attachment to change his weapon to gun mode, used his bike to jump over the cyclones and placed the screen of the gun in front of the alpha core. (B-B-Blaze!) Jurassic landed rolling in front of the kaiju putting his weapon point blank against it and then pulled the trigger. (Tyranno Burning Burst!) Microraptor is sent flying through a couple trees by a powerful red aura shot of fire.

"Hm." The mysterious person had watched the whole thing with interest. "Impressive."

Jurassic looked to his friends before looking back to the kaiju. "We're getting out of here." He announced as he used his belt. (Flaming!)

Jurassic slammed his fist into the ground surrounding them in flames. Microraptor uses cyclones to get rid of the flames only to find the Riders gone with a hole in the ground. The two kaiju run to the hole to chase after them.

"Leave them!" The two kaiju stop and look to the person. "We have other matters to attend to." Microraptor changes into the Derpy that Ressha and Rarity saw at school.

"Yes. Of course, Alpha." The fake Derpy said following the command.

The Dragons Cavern

It had been a while after the battle. Derpy woke up in an empty bedroom with only a bed and a wooden desk in it. Confused and wondering how she got there, she got up and walked slowly to the door. Derpy ended up outside in a hallway, went walking through it a bit and found the library and cafe part of the building.

She looked around seeing a bit of customers till she set her sights on Drago and the group. Mostly just from noticing Rainbow Dash. They've been friends since elementary school and was one of the few who didn't make fun of her eyes. She sees Rainbow with the group talking about something. She was reluctant to go see if they knew how she got here and how long she's been here. She couldn't remember what had happened during her talk with that stranger. Wanting at least a bit of answers, she decides to go talk to the group.

After getting back, Drago had patched up Ressha a bit before helping Emerald with Discord who had been a bit more hurt. Drago was sitting at a table with Rainbow, Discord, Applejack, Negi, Rarity, and Ressha. They called the others, though Fluttershy and Sunset said they were busy, while Connor, Pinkie or Reiji hadn't answered their calls. So, they decided to just continue without them. They had just finished talking about what happened and were trying to think of what to do, except for Rainbow and Discord at the moment.

Rainbow laughed at Discord. "Some hero you are, Discord. How is it that you're the one always getting hurt?"

"Oh, I don't know. It's such a mystery." Discord talked in a sarcastic tone.

Rarity rolled her eyes annoyed and notices Derpy walking over to them. "Derpy!" She got up to walk over to her. "Are you okay? You seemed really ill when you found us."

"I found you?" Asked Derpy confused.

"Yeah. You ran into us while we were at the park." Answered Ressha. "You seemed like you had been working yourself to death. You don't remember any of that?"

Derpy shakes her head. "No. The last thing I remembered, I was leaving the post office and then everything went dark while I was talking to someone in a black cloak."

Drago walks up to Derpy. "That person was probably another ally of Moltens." Derpy raised a brow while tilting her head in confusion. "Molten. Our classmate that tried destroying the school as a kaiju and got expelled."

"Oh!" Derpy nodded remembering. "Then that person was trying to attack me?"

"No. They used you to create two kaiju." Drago said making Derpy looked shocked with fear. "You most likely got away from them as the kaiju were trying to do something to you."

"Like what?" Rainbow asked.

Reiji ponders a thought. "Well from what you guys described, they used the shrimp medal to create a create like a Yummy. Though instead of using a cell medal, they used a core medal. Though a core medal inside a person should mutate them slowly into a Greed."

"Well maybe they added something that changed the outcome." Connor added in. "That would explain why this kaiju is different from Greeds and Yummies. Judging from the name, this one is probably born from those who've already fulfilled their greed or desires. Which this world is full of. Which would explain the name.

Derpy gasps. "You mean like my love for muffins or how I always like singing or humming to myself?"

"Maybe." Replied Connor with a shrug.

"What makes you think it was that kaiju and not the other?" Rarity asked. Drago knowing, motioned for Discord to continue who was wearing a professor outfit with a board behind him with a bunch of different doodles on it.

"You see my poor minded Rarity" She scoffed looking away with her head held up high. "the reason we know is because we know what a Primeval is and what they do." Discord said tapping a ruler on Rarity's head. Rainbow was about to speak but Discord took out a tv control and muted her making her soundless. "Save the questions for after class, Miss Dashie." He ended earning him a glare from Rainbow.

"You see class there are two different types of Primevals. One that we've seen our dear moldy and drama devil become are Primevals that come into existence by them overpowering the core to have complete control when transforming." Informed Discord as he made the doodles copy his explanation. "The second type are more different. Because they're just shards, they seek out the core of others that are damaged."

"What do ya mean by the core of others? And damaged in what way?" Applejack asked.

"I'm glad you asked." Discord replied. Rainbow was shouting soundlessly at Discord, who he completely ignores. "A person's core is what our families use to describe the heart of what makes someone who they are. Like how Dash loves to be athletic, courageous and loyal. You being a hard worker, a family person and honest. Or me being mischievous and chaotic. And what I mean by damaged is when the person's core is weakened by them feeling like what they are isn't good enough, thinking they need to be their opposite to do better, or other negative emotions like that."

Applejack looked to Derpy. "Were yah really feelin' like that, Sugarcube?" Derby just nods with a sad look.

"Why? You're great the way you are." Stated Rainbow. "I mean sure you're clumsy and tend to break things but there's good things to go along with those to make up for it. What would make you want to change?"

Derpy sighed sadly while facing the ground. "I've been trying to get a job. I've already gone to many interviews, but none of them wanted to hire me because of how I am. I started thinking maybe if I was different then maybe they'd hire me, and then I'd be able to get my friend something nice before they got back."

"Before who gets back?" Rainbow asked a bit confused. "Oh! You mean Time Turner, right? I forgot he left for a while to go study something with his grandpa, right?

Derpy smiled. "Yeah. He left to go study a temple that was discovered in the Empty Quarter desert. I still remember how excited he got when his grandpa invited him along to help him study it." Her smile was growing as she recalled the memory. "Though he mostly wanted to study an object grandfather said seemed out of place." Negi starts thinking about something hearing that.

Rarity grins. "Oh? So, you wanted to do something special for your friend Time Turner, hm?" She said making Derpy blush knowing what she means.

"W-What!? N-No. I-it's nothing like that." Derpy face gets more reddish the longer she speaks. "I-I mean n-not that I would p-probably mind t-that. B-But we're just friends."

"For now." Discord whispered next to her.

"Yes! For now." Stated Derpy holding her head high till she goes wide eyed from what she said and then covers her now red embarrassed face.

"Okay. Stop tormentin' the poor girl. We should be focusin' on how ta help her." Applejack pointed out before turning to Discord. "What is that Primeval goin' ta do with Derpy's core?"

"Oh right. I almost forgot. The reason Drago wanted to finish this quickly is because if the Primeval convinces enough people, along with the original, that they're the better version, the original will disappear with the Primeval taking their place permanently."

"What?!" Rainbow and the others except Drago shouted. "Then go take care of that overgrown lizard already." Rainbow demanded.

"They're actually dinosaurs. And that's not enough." Said Drago stepping in getting everyone's attention. "Derpy has basically already admitted that the fake is better. We got to change that before anything else." Everyone nods agreeing after thinking about it. "Now the question is what should we do to change her thoughts on that."

They started pondering on what they could do since they knew they couldn't just help get her a job. They needed to do something that'd cheer her up and make her like herself again. Derpy was just lost in her own thoughts thinking about what the others said.

"Well, Derpy is definitely a hard worker." Said Applejack.

"She has a great personality." Rarity added

"She's surprisingly great at baking." Rainbow also threw in.

Discord looks to the side and notices Emerald coming out of the cafe's kitchen to bring them drinks that they had ordered and then gets a devilish idea from the mischievous smile that spreads across his face. He gets up and moves past Emerald as she got there. She immediately took notice of Derpy covering her face while mumbling something about something being nice thought but too embarrassing.

"What's on your guy's agendas today?" Emerald then turns smiling to Derpy. "And I see your friend is having romance troubles." She chuckles seeing Derpy trying even harder to hide her face.

Drago leans back against his chair. "We're trying to solve a Primeval problem. One of the ways we're trying to do this is by finding her a job."

"I see." Said Emerald pondering the thought. "I wish I could help but I can't think of any places around that are hiring and I'm pretty sure I have enough-"

Right that second, a small explosion was heard, everyone in the group and in the place turn to the cafe's kitchen to see pink sticky substance sticking out from the door and window. A lady then tries coming out of the kitchen with the pink substance sticking to her back only to be flung back into the kitchen. After some struggling, the lady broke herself free and then went marching up to Emerald.

"Miss-" Is all Emerald gets to say.

"I'm tired of that damn freak. I've had it with his pranks. I QUIT!!" The lady shouted at Emerald and then leaves the cafe.

The group turns to see Discord back in his seat with a huge grin while eating from a popcorn bucket full of cotton candy. Everyone in the group and the place can literally feel an angered aura and slowly turn to Emerald who is crushing the tray she is holding between her hands while looking at Discord with a smile, even though you can tell she is anything but happy from the veins appearing on her forehead.

"Part one of the plan complete." Discord said as he continues eating while Drago and Negi struggle keeping Emerald from using the crushed tray on him.

Canterlot High

"Are you sure this is okay, Pinkie?" Reiji asked as the three of them were rigging balloons and confetti into lockers.

"Yes siree, Silvy!" Replied Pinkie. "I kept having to ask vice principal Luna. She said to ask her later because she was busy. But she didn't say when. So, I kept asking her every time she was finished doing something. Like when she finished filing some papers that she had to redo after I popped out of the filing cabinet, setting up a schedule for a meeting, startled her during lunch, and other things. I guess her schedule was over when she went to use the bathroom after school ended today and found me behind the other side of the door."

Connor turns to Pinkie. "Remind me to always give you an answer right away."

Pinkie saluted to him. "Yes sir, Matchie sir."

Connor raises a brow at that. "Matchie? Why Matchie? Is it because of my belt?"

Pinkie shakes her head. "No, silly Matchie." Connor sighs to that. "It's because of your name. It's Connor Match, right?" Connor goes confused and is about to ask her about it till she talks first. "Huh? That's weird. Is it normal to find Riotoozes in the halls?"

The guys look at each other before looking down the hall to see the Riotoozes who turn to look at them. The two groups stand still staring at each other.

"Pinkie, is anyone still here at the school?" Connor leaned over a bit to ask.

"Well, there's clubs, students who stay behind to study, the teachers, the principal and vice principal, also-" Pinkie's mouth gets covered by Connor's hand.

"I'm sorry I asked." He said with a deadpan look. "So, no henshin. Magic it is." The Riotoozes charge at them as the guys activate their magic. "Pinkie, please go warn the others for us." Pinkie salutes with a serious face before leaving in the opposite direction as Connor makes a blue dragon armor around himself.

The lines on Reiji's glow as he gets into a pose while three claw blades appear over his arms. "Who knew the party was gonna be starting so soon." He said with a smile.

The Dragons Cavern

Derpy and the group were standing in the cafe's kitchen after having cleaned it which took a long while. During that time, the girls had to leave. Rarity went to her job, Applejack had to go finish her chores, and Rainbow left to go help Fluttershy who had called asking if someone could help her.

The kitchen is a pretty good size looking like it'd be able to fit the whole group in it, having hardwood flooring, a sink, long center counter, a silver stove with 9 burners and two ovens. a three-door fridge on the other side of the stove, also cabinets and drawers.

"Okay Derpy, all you have to do is bake something that'll taste great and attract customers attentions. I hope you don't waste the shot Discord gave you." Emerald said while glaring at Discord before sighing and then looking to Derpy with a smirk. "I'm hoping you do well as well, so I won't have to go through the trouble of looking for someone new."

"I-I hope so too." Said Derpy looking nervous.

Emerald gives her a comforting smile. "Don't worry. I'm sure you'll do well. Plus, the others will most likely help you." They turned looking to the guys.

Derpy makes a small smile. "That is a bit reassuring." Ressha's cell begins ringing.

"Hello?" He asked answering it. "Pinkie? Where are you-" [HURRY TO THE SCHOOL!! THERE'S KAIJU HERE!!] Ressha had been cut off from her yelling. She had yelled loud enough for everyone to hear. "What? What's happening right now?" [Not sure. I had to go to a phone in a classroom.]

Negi has Ressha pass the phone to him. "Pinkie, why'd you go to a phone? What happened to your guys phones?" [Well, our phones got drowned along with us when the guys fell into a pool of chocolate milk with whip cream.] Negi slaps his hand to his head knowing who did that. "Wait. What about yours?" [I willingly jumped into it.]

"We all shouldn't go. Just in case they try coming for Derpy." Discord pointed out.

Drago sighs. "You're right. Then me and Ne-"

"Wait!" Ressha shouted cutting in. "Please let me go instead." Drago and the others look to him. "Please. I...We want to make something clear."

"Are you sure?" Drago asked getting a nod from Ressha as a response with determined look. He then looks to the other two who nod to him. "Alright then. Let's go." The two were about to leave till Drago see's Derpy look at them both confused and look worried.

"Are you two really gonna go face those kaiju?" Derpy asked with concern. "Why? I know your friends are in trouble but shouldn't you leave that to the police or those heroes the...Kamen Riders." Derpy paused from seeing the guys pull out their drivers.

"We are the Riders." Drago said. "So are Connor and Reiji. Though we're trying not to let others know about us. Which is why they've probably haven't transformed."

Derpy looks at him confused. "Then why are you telling me? How do you know I won't betray your trust? Or accidently tell your secret to someone?"

Drago gives her a warm slime. "Because I know I can trust you."

"What? How would you know that?"

"You know you're pretty hard not to notice at school, right? Like those days you kept blowing up the science club's room." Drago smile grew seeing Derpy look away embarrassed. "Then there's also how you have other's backs when they feel down and do your best to cheer them up. You also brighten up other's days just by being the cheerful usual self. With a core as bright as yours, I'd easily trust you with our secret. I bet Time Turner feels the same."

"D-Do you really think so? Especially that last one?" Derpy mumbled the last part looking away.

"You have my oath that what I'm saying is true." Says Drago holding out his fist to her.

Derpy looks between his fist and him for a bit till she smiles and bumps her fist with his. "Thank you. Then you two better make quick work of those kaiju and get back to taste the muffins I'm gonna bake."

Drago and Ressha nod. "You got it, ma'am." He responded and then left to the garage with Ressha following him. Ressha gets a notification on his phone. "What's up?"

Ressha looked at a message on his. "I think it's Zea. It's telling me where the Desire is. It also confirmed the fake Derpy is at the school." He then looks to Drago. "I want to handle the Desire. I'll leave Microraptor to you." Drago nods as they got on their bikes after putting on their helmets.

They rode off and go in different directions. As Drago was driving down the street, he put on his belt and then brought out the rex core. (Alpha Tyranno! Infusion!) The belt announced the adapter key part of the core to top of the belt making the other half DNA strand in the middle part of the belt turn red. Instead of the fossil in a wall appearing behind him, the rex fossil came popping out of the ground with the inside of it being filled with obsidian and ran along following him. "Henshin!"

Down the road, Detective Shining was waiting for the light to change to green, while also looking at the news of the Riders. "I'll definitely find out what you're after and what your relation to the kaiju is." He said to himself with a determined frown. (Core Blaze! Stomp! Slam! Roar! Alpha Tryranno!) Hearing this and seeing the bits of obsidian fly past him, Detective Shining sees Jurassic speeding past him the next second surprising him. "Kamen Rider! I'm not letting you get away this time." Detective Shining said mostly to himself as he went gunning after him.

Canterlot High

The guys had taken their fight with grunts to the roof. Three Riotoozes get sent splattering into the wall. The guys were easily taking down the Riotoozes, especially with Connor's training showing it was paying off. Though that was probably also because of the dragon armor that his magic was more easily accessing using the dragon fullbottle.

Blue flames build up into Connor's fist and then sends a small group of Riotoozes flying when he sent one that he punched crashing into others. He changes to the rabbit armor when a couple of others charge at him, then jumps stomping a foot on each of their heads, then lands turning to face them with the tank armor and taking half of them out in one shot. He then turns towards Reiji's fight.

"Hey Reiji!" Connor called out while still fighting, getting his attention. "Something about how you use your magic keeps bugging me."

Reiji raised a brow. "What do you mean?" He asked as he kicked two off the roof.

"The way it activates just seems familiar to me." Reiji crossed his arms over his forehead to show Connor. "Yeah. That. It reminds me of something that's at the tip of my tongue." Said Connor pondering making Reiji do the same till he realizes something snapping his fingers.

"Tiga!" After slash some Riotoozes with the claw blades, he does the same motion again and consecrates. "Hm...Ha!" He swings his arms apart with his clothes colored lines changing too. While the green on his pants and shoes stay the same while the yellow on his jacket and the red on his goggles change to green. "I should've seen that sooner. This is awesome! Hm...I wonder."

Right as Riotoozes fired blasts at him, Reiji jumps rolling out of the way and then multiplies into ten copies of himself. "I was right! I can use the combo abilities!" All the Reiji said pointing at each other before charging at the Riotoozes and beat some of them down. He then changes his ability again by changing the lines colors to yellow. "Yellow combo next." He happily shouted as he moved at high-speed mowing down Riotoozes with the claw blades.

Reiji quickly stops and jumps back avoiding green lightning that hits directly where he was. Reiji looks in the direction that the lightning came from and sees the mysterious person in the black cloak standing on top of the tip of the castle tower's flagpole. The person then sends lightning all around that hits all the Riotoozes along with avoiding the guys. The two look at each other confused before looking back to the person.

"Don't misunderstand Riders." The person said as several elements circle around the person. "I merely wanted to see your strength personally."

While at the front of the school, Pinkie had informed principle Celestia about kaiju being in the school and had helped her get everyone outside to the parking lot of the school. They couldn't tell what was happening, but they could see shots, fire and other attacks either hit the sides of the roof or go flying to the sides. Among the students there, the fake Derpy was also watching with a wicked smile. (Crushing! Roar!)

Jurassic comes to a drifting stop close to them and lets out a powerful red aura roar before the crowd could turn to him. As the roar went by hurting their ears, a thin red transparent crystal layer forms over everyone in a second and shatters the next second with the feathers on everyone breaking along with it. The fake Derpy looks at the sight in shock after having recovered from the roar and turns to Jurassic with a glare of rage.

"You'll regret that." The fake said with hiss as changes into her kaiju form. "I do not intend to fail my alpha." Everyone quickly run or back away from the kaiju after screaming or recovering from the dizziness.

"I don't care about your alpha or any of that." Said Jurassic as he got off his bike and brought out the Excacore. "All I'm here for is to return the core to its original owner." (Tyranno Sword!) The Excacore announced as it was changed into sword mode.

Microraptor scoffed. "Return it and go back to being a shard? Not a chance." Snapped its fingers and made Riotoozes spawn around it.

"Then I'll stop the misuse of that core." Jurassic said as he dashed towards the Riotoozes and Microraptor. Shining arrived to see Jurassic fighting the kaiju and Riotoozes as he clashed weapons with Microraptor, also blocking and slashing down Riotoozes. He runs over to Principle Celestia and the others. "You all need to move to safety." He informed them.

"Yes. Of course." Principle Celestia said. "But we're not sure if everyone made it out. Please keep an eye out just in case please."

Shining nods. "You have my word. Now get moving." As they left, Shining ran over to the battle and hid behind a car.

In the Middle of City

The Desire was standing on top a building as it kept blowing bubbles out, spreading them into the air which caused many explosions everywhere the bubbles landed. The police and swat tried getting close but were unable to because of the Desire was protected by Kuzu yummies, which are black humanoid creatures wrapped in a bit of worn bandages with an open circle where the face would be.

Ressha stops a good distance away with no one around insight. "You're up, Momo. Henshin!" He shouted pushing the red button and passing the pass over the belt. (Sword Form!) He drove towards the battle while transforming into Den-o. "Let's go! Let's go! Out of the way!" Den-o yelled out to both sides getting the officers attentions and quickly run or jump out of the way as he smashed his way through the yummy.

Some went flying to the side, while others just got instantly destroyed by the blades on Denrailer. (FULL CHARGE!) The belt called out after Den-o passed the pass over it again and the blade from his sword flies off. "I'm getting rid of the garbage in one special move. Twist Version!" Den-o shouted out as he began spinning in a circle using Denrailer, the blade rotated around with Den-o following the sword's handle and destroy all the yummies as it cut or slashed through them. Den-o stopped feeling a bit dizzy but shook if off as he looked up the building chuckling. "Now time for the big fish."

The Desire was about to make more bubbles till it noticed train tracks appear next to it coming over the ledge. "Ore Sanjou!" The kaiju heard the second it looked over the ledge. Den-o came driving up and kicks the Desire while passing by it causing the kaiju to lose balance and fall off the building. Though it uses its pegasus wings to fly back up next to the building and see Den-o point his sword at it from where he's parked on the roof. "From start to finish, I'm at a climax."

The kaiju responds by just turning and flying off. "Hey! Don't ignore me! He shouted as he got back on his bike and chased after it as Denrailer made tracks following after the kaiju in the air. "Get your ass back here and face me, shrimp bastard!" The Desire turned to face him while flying backwards. "Uh-oh." The Desire shot out bubbles making Den-o maneuver around to avoid and dodge them. He wanted to close the distance, but the bubbles kept him from doing this.

"This bastard is starting to get on my nerves!" He shouted to himself annoyed. 'This is pathetic. Switch with me already./No. Keep going, Momo./Why are you allowing him to continue? He's no match against the shrimp./You're wrong! The way you judge others on strength alone is a small, minded way to judge others. Strength can be judged in many ways. That's what I believe and Momo will prove it.' Den-o smirks under his helmet hearing Ressha's words in his head. "You got that right! Now sit back as I break the limit that Winnie the Pooh has set and bring down this shrimp."

Say this, Den-o speeds up towards the bubbles surprising the kaiju. "Let's go! Let's go!" He braced and endured as he took the explosions from the bubbles as he drove through them. As Den-o was getting closer, the Desire stopped attacking for a second to take in a huge amount of air. When it shot the bubbles again, the bubbles seemed to be smaller and misshaped along with looking a bit grayish.

"What?" He was confused by this till he got surprised by the new bubbles' explosions being smaller but packing a stronger punch. "Ugh!" Den-o almost fell off Denrailer but fought through the pain and held on as he continued to try to strive through the new explosions. 'Momo!' "Don't worry about me! I'm not gonna let us lose to this damn bastard again!" '...Let me take over./But-/It's alright, Ressha. This isn't about strength. I want to help you and Momo. At the rate Momo is going, your body will be broken. Please let me do this.' Den-o stayed silent for a second before pushing the yellow button on the belt that started a different jingle. "You better not lose then,"

(Axe Form!) Den-o's belt announced as he then swept the pass over the belt again. A red aura appeared around Den-o for a second before disappearing and being replaced by a yellow aura. As sword forms face closed up and disappeared, Den-o's armor came off and repositioned itself in reverse along with a new piece ride over the head and unfolds over the face.

The two front pieces that made sword forms chest were now on the back, with the two back pieces now acting as the chest. The chest has a black color in the front middle, while a golden yellow covering the sides. It has a six silver exhaust vent looking design on it, four in the front and two on both sides between the head and shoulders, a small silver pipe design went from the front of the chest to running along the side of shoulders. The shoulders also had a golden yellow color covering most of it but the center sides of them had a red circle, while the center of the chest still had a silver rail going down the middle the red pieces on the knees changed to yellow. The face piece was in the shape of a circler diamond with both the corner edges pointing out, with three open lines going to the side on both sides of the face that goes smaller going up and an axe like horn blade going through the middle.

As axe form completed, Denrailer's parts also shifted around. The front parts on the side of the wheel both retrack their blades before splitting in half showing a golden yellow on the inside and then two pieces placed themselves on the sides of the back wheel while the other two pieces that had the blades placed themselves on the sides of the bike's tail end, the booster parts attached themselves to the front with the booster end still facing backwards and the fin piece that was on the tail split down the middle before connecting to the front part of the booster making them look like axe blades, and the front piece of the bike disappeared with a new one resembling axe form's face appearing to take its place.

The new formation of Denrailer was easily taking the hits alongside Den-o without being damaged or slowed down. As Den-o rode through the explosions getting closer to the kaiju, the axe blades in the front started to glow yellow. The Desire turned around to get distance again but before it could, Den-o got through the explosions and rammed the axe blades into the back of the kaiju, which cuts off the wings sending sparks flying off its back as it fell crashing into the ground.

Den-o parks across from the kaiju. "May our match begin." Said Den-o as he got off his bike. He picks up a rock, crushes it to dust and throws it into the air before getting into a sumo stance. The kaiju brought out cell medals, breaks them all in half, and tosses them to the side which transformed into more Kuzu yummies along with Riotoozes spawning as well. "Te wo tsuite!" He shouted as the kaiju charge at him.

The second the grunts got close; Den-o started palm striking them in their chests making them fall back into each other as they were pushed back. After striking multiple times, the final strike toppled a whole group down. Riotoozes tried coming in from his sides which he just stomped on the ground making it shake. While they were unbalanced from the small quake, Den-o took ahold of the Dengasher pieces and put them into a new formation which made an axe. The blade of the axe was small till it enlarged.

Den-o proceeded to swing his axe and knocked the Riotoozes around him down in one strike. He started walking forward towards the Desire and was striking down the grunts as they tried attacking him. Two Kuzu yummies grabbed a hold of him from behind and held on to him.

"Hold this." Den-o said as he tossed his axe to a Riotooze that was running up to him. As it was confused from this, Den-o easily broke out of the Kuzu's hold and then turned to send them flying into the wall by shoving them back. He turned back to the Riotooze, grabbed onto it after taking back his axe, then swung it around and threw it into another group of grunts. Den-o swipes the pass over belt. (FULL CHARGE!)

Yellow energy is sent from the belt to the axe's blade. Den-o swings his axe widely hitting and destroying the rest of the grunts. He turns back towards the Desire and begins walking towards it again. The kaiju backs up a bit as it shoots grayish bubbles at Den-o, who just keeps walking into them with sparks flying off him being unfazed by the explosions.

The Desire started using its claws to hit Den-o as it kept backing up. Den-o let it hit him a couple times before attacking it the same number of times it hit him. Sparks coming off both of them as they continued this exchange but only the Desire seemed to be feeling the damage as parts of its shell breaks off. The Desire has enough with the exchange as it grabbed on both of Den-o's arms as it inhales to shoot bubbles.

The second it was about shoot, Den-o thrusted his head forward using the axe horn to make the bubbles explode as it was going to leave out its mouth causing them to explode in its mouth. "This will decide the match." He said as the Desire stumbled back. (FULL CHARGE!) The belt announced again as it sent energy into the axe again. Den-o throws the axe into the air before kneeling a bit putting strength into his legs and then hopped high up into the air.

As the Desire recovered, Den-o grabbed ahold of the axe bringing it down along with him and chopped the kaiju down the middle. "Dynamic Chop!" 'So, you name your attacks too.' He pulls tissues out of nowhere and throws them into the air towards the Desire. "Wipe your tears of shame with these." The Desire fell to its knees as sparks fly off from the chop before it fell over and exploded as Den-o walked away. 'Where'd this idiot get tissues from?!' He caught the core medal without turning back to look as he continued to walk.

Canterlot High's Roof

The battle on the roof had been going on for a while now. The mysterious person had not moved from their spot at all during the whole battle while Connor and Reiji were panting a bit close to the edge. Connor used water cannons from his firetruck armor to get rid of fireballs the person shot towards them. The person then gets blinded by a bright light that Reiji had used from his googles as he then charged at her in high speed but stops when icicles spring out of the ground towards him and uses the claw blades to break them before retreating back next to Connor.

"I think we're starting to run a little low." Reiji said feeling a bit weak in his legs.

"Geez you don't say." Connor said sarcastically annoyed. "Though with that being the case, I say we bring the witch down in one go." He gave a determined glare at the person.

Reiji agreed with a nod. "Right behind you on that."

"I have to admit, your magical abilities are impressive." The person said intrigued while also lost in thought. "I wonder..." The person held out their hand towards the guys making a magical aura appear around them. They try to break out of the magical hold as they were lifted into the air. "Will you grow stronger if I break your bodies."

"AAAHH!!" Connor and Reiji were shouting in pain as the person started to twist their bodies a bit. (Biting Kaban Strash!) The person hears at last second turning to see a row of teal shark teeth. They barely move out of the way as the teeth brushed against the person's coat. Losing the concertation, Connor and Reiji were freed from the hold. The two and the person look in time for Negi to land next to them.

"You guys okay?" Negi asked as he helped them up.

Connor made a deadpan look. "Did it look like we were okay?"

"None the less, we're happy with the save." Reiji said with a smile.

"So, you're the third who isn't of this world as well." The guys had turned hearing the person and get into fighting stances. "What are your capabilities?" Asked the person as sirens are heard in the distance getting closer.

Negi looked towards the direction of the sirens before looking back to the person. "Maybe another time. We're gonna have to end this for now." He said then looking to the guys, while taking out the liger progrize key, who nod knowing what he was thinking and brought summoned out their weapons. Reiji summoned his sword and brought out the mantis medal while Connor summoned the Vortex Saber, switched it to gun mode and pulled out the hedgehog and firetruck fullbottles.

(Claw! Progrizekay confirmed! Ready to utilize! Liger's Ability! Chargerize! Full Charge!) (Harinezumi! Syoubousya!) (Kamakiri!) Their weapons said as they activated their finishers with teal shark teeth appearing over the Attache Calibur, the Medajaribur's blade turning light green along with creating multiple mantis blades on it, and the Vortex Saber's drill spinning with white and red energy mixing into the spin.

"Very well." The person said as they began to build their magic into one point. (Striking Kaban Dynamic!) (Vortex Match!) (Kamakiri Swords!) The weapons announced as the person unleashed their magic into a swirling black and purple blast. The Attache Calibur sent the teal teeth in a forward slash motion, the Medajaribur sent the mantis blades into a spinning motion, and the Vortex Saber shooting out a barrage of quills made a mix of fire and water.

The attacks collide and struggle for a while till the blast started pushing the guys attack back. The guys were struggling to keep their footing as the attacks struggle was pushing them back as well. The person sighs in disappointment. "Seems all you-" (Final Attack Ride! D-D-Decade!) The person is cut off by the announcement. They quickly turn to use their magic to block a red blast from the opposite side and sees Decade waving hi to them.

Both attacks start breaking the blast and shield. "Till next time Riders." The person said in a happy tone disappearing before the attacks breaks through and collide exploding. The guys relax for a second before turning towards Decade who whose armor disappears after turning into transparent after images as he undid his transformation.

"You owe me big time." Discord says with a smirk.

"I'll happily pay you back anything." Reiji said with a smile.

Connor sighs. "Yeah. I'll pay you back by forgiving you for the pranks."

Negi takes notice of police cars coming up. "We need to get out of here."

"I can easily do that." Reiji said as he changed the lines on his clothes to yellow and was gone the next second as he ran at a super-fast speed. Discord and Negi look to Connor confused.

"Let's just say he learned more about his magic. Let's just go for now." Connor said with Negi nodding and then used their magic to leave the area as Chief Dusk arrived at the front of the school with other officers.

Chief Dusked eyed the area. "Surround the area! I don't want this vigilante escaping on us again!" He could hear the battle going on at the back of the school. "Stick in groups. Don't take any risks and proceed with caution." He ordered as he and other officers split into small groups proceeded towards the battle going along the left side of the school.

In the parking lot of school, Shining was hiding behind a car as he watched Jurassic battle with both Microraptor and the Riotoozes. Jurassic used his left leg to kick two Riotooze's chests. While dodging their attacks, he slashed down some grunts and either punched or kicked others. (Slam!) Jurassic's belt said as he swung a red aura tail under the Riotoozes feet tripping them and then slammed it onto them.

Microraptor tries attacking Jurassic while his back was turn with its folding fans by sending them flying like spinning buzzsaws. "Who are you to decide what's right or wrong of me to do?" Jurassic senses the attack and quickly turns to deflect them with his sword. "The girl causes nothing but havoc to others. While I was a brave warrior that died defending this world. What's so wrong for me to take the place of someone who wants to disappear?" Microraptor ran up to Jurassic while catching her fans and then proceeds to swing attacking him with them. "I deserve this! That's why I won't fail the chance my alpha gave me!" It shouted as Jurassic blocked its strikes with his sword.

"You don't know anything!" Jurassic responded with a bit of anger as he hit Microraptor's fans out of its hands and then strikes slashing it twice across the chest making sparks fly. It brought out its huge folding fan, from its back, blocking Jurassic's next strike and then stay in place as they try pushing each other back. "You don't understand anything about her." They both shoved and then punched each other's chests making them stumble back. He points his sword towards it. "Just like me, all you've done is scratched the surface of who she is."

The Dragons Cavern

In the cafe's kitchen, Derpy had been trying to get batter ready to bake muffins. She had been thinking for a while on what to bake. While she was thinking before, she had looked over all the ingredients that the kitchen could provide.

When she finally decided what to make, she kept having to start over because of small mistakes she had been making either from being really nervous about messing up or being clumsy by tripping or dropping things. Like adding too much sugar, dropping some butter, accidently putting coffee powder mistaking it for chocolate.

She began to start feeling a bit down again because of the mistakes and thinking of her chances of being hired were too low now. Derpy sighed sadly. "I don't know what I'm doing anymore. Drago and Discord are gonna be so disappointed in me for wasting the chance they gave me. Maybe I should just quit. Huh?" She was about to give up till Blaze jumped onto the counter.

"Oh. Hello. My name is Derpy." She introduced herself to him. "What's your name?" Blaze answered her with some growls and roars. Derpy smiles to him. "I see. Nice to meet you, Blaze. And yeah. I was thinking it would probably be better to quit before I waste anymore of Miss Emerald's ingredients." The little rex responded to this by leaving out the door. "I guess he agrees." She said in a sad tone.

"BLAZE!!" Derpy got startled hearing Emerald yell out as the little rex returned with two different things. One was a newspaper article and a torn page of a map. Blaze drops them in front of her and then has her look at them. Derpy picks up the newspaper was on the page taking about the Riders and the map piece looked like it came a book. It was a map of the Empty Quarter desert. She looked at the two items confused for a second before understanding what he was trying to tell her.

"You're trying to show me how Turner and the Riders don't give up on what they work to do, right?" Derpy asked looking to Blaze who nods with a growl. Derpy looks to the items already knowing how hard the Riders probably work to help or save others. She then smiles remembering how her best friend has never given up on any of his experiments no matter how many times they failed. She even remembers how one of those experiments led to him blowing a huge hole in the center of the soccer field.

Derpy picks Blaze up and gives the little rex a hug. "Thank you." She said smiling. After a second, her eyes go wide with her smile getting bigger. "I've got an idea, Blaze! Can you help me with it?" The rex roars jumping around as confirmation. She looks back to the batter with a determined look.

Canterlot High

Chief Dusk and his men approach the battle from the left side of the school to see Jurassic pointing his sword at the kaiju. "Chief!" He and the others heard Shining call to him. They look a bit to their left to see Shining hiding behind a car waving over to them.

As they walk over to him, proceeding with caution, Jurassic gets into a stance to charge at Microraptor and the Riotoozes. "Under my oath, I'll restore the light of the core." He then dashed forward. "There's no reason to hold back now!" He shouted as he slashed through the Riotoozes in front of him before stopping in the middle of them.

Microraptor opens its huge folding fan. "Then let us see which is stronger. My will to exist or your oath." She then creates powerful winds all around them which also blocks off Chief Dusk and the other officers from getting to them.

"Damn it!" Shining shouted. He looks over the car to watch the battle. Microraptor swings its fan again making two twisting winds that move and pick up the two other fans.

The fans spin in the winds as saw blades again as they move towards Jurassic. After slashing down three Riotoozes that were attacking him, Jurassic takes notice of them at last second and knocks them away with his sword only for them to stay in the air to circle back. Seeing this, he gets rid of the sword attachment to change the Excacore to gun mode.

Jurassic shoots and hits Riotoozes as he avoids the fan by jumping over them or ducking under them or deflects them by shooting them. (Crushing!) Jurassic clawed two Riotoozes next to him with red crystal rex claws, then kneed one in the gut making it fall to its knees and then shoots others from behind that grunt. He then kicked the Riotooze up a bit and then into the other side of the car Shining was hiding behind making him jump out of hiding.

"Shit." Shining said as the Riotoozes took notice of him. He shot at them as they ran up to him but was having no effect on them. "What the hell are these things? Ah! Shit!" He had avoided the swipe of one and tired punching another only for his hand to feel he had punched a brick wall instead.

Another was about to attack him from behind till it got shot from the side. "What?" Shining got surprised like the other two Riotoozes who also got shot when they turned towards the direction of the shot. Shining looked towards the source also to see Jurassic had save him. "Don't expect me to thank you, Rider. I'm going to bring you in for questioning."

"Might want to duck down first then." Jurassic informed him as he shot all the Riotoozes while spinning twice destroying all them. Shining had complied as he had quickly ducked from the shots. (B-B-Blaze!) The Excacore announced as he activated the finisher, immediately aimed it at the kaiju and fired a powerful red aura of fire at it. (Tyranno Burning Burst!)

Microraptor started focusing most of its wind on his attack while using the rest on send the fan buzzsaws at Jurassic. (Crushing! Stomp!) Jurassic times his attack as he braces for the fans and then swung his leg into a kick, as it was crystalized into a rex foot with red aura around it, shattering the fans into pieces. Jurassic looks back to see the kaiju started turning his attack around. "You lost the second you chose to face an alpha."

(Tyranno Sword!) After switching it backed to sword mode he activates the finisher again. (B-B-Blaze! Tyranno Crushing Fang!) Jurassic launched the sword finisher towards the first finisher, both attacks combine as they break through the wind, and Microraptor's huge fan gets destroyed as it tried using it as a shield. "You're nothing but a shard of what it originally used to be. A brave selfless warrior who helped those who couldn't protect themselves and wanted others who have potential to shine like Derpy the chance to achieve their dreams. But you have none of the light the original had. That's why I'll never lose to a being willing to corrupt or crush the cores of others."

Jurassic then activates his belt's finisher as a guitar standby jingle plays from him lifting up the slot and pushed the hammer. "Not now. Not ever." He shouted to Microraptor that's still recovering from the last attack as he stabbed his sword into the ground before jumping up and pushing his belt's slot back down. (Flaming Crushing Bite!!) The belt announced as fire had built up around his leg as he went down towards the kaiju with a kick. Kick hits, drags Microraptor back as the fire formed a rex head, the head bit down on the kaiju as soon as it hit against the wall of wind and exploded. "Extinction." He said making a claw motion across his chest.

After the explosion Shining look to see as the wind around them disappeared and then to Jurassic who has his sights set towards the explosion as the orb of light with the image folding fan cracked breaking the outer layer like a shell being back to its original state. The shards form back into the primal core as it falls into Jurassic's open hand and then him and Shining watch as the orb flies off into the sky.

Shining was left speechless from the sight. Being so lost in his thoughts, he didn't take notice of Jurassic grabbing his sword and about to walk away till they were surrounded by Chief Dusk and other officers with their guns aimed at him. He refocuses on reality before pointing his gun at Jurassic.

"Freeze! Put your weapon down on the ground now, Kamen Rider!" Jurassic looks to the Dusk who shouted to him. He takes notice of a cotton candy bush behind Dusk which could only mean one thing. "We have you surrounded. It'd be best if you just surrendered and came back with us to the station for some questioning."

Jurassic made an exhausted sigh. "Sorry Chief. No can do. Just like you all, I have a job to do on keeping the peace of this world."

"That doesn't mean you can take the law into your own hands."

"Well unfortunately for us, kaiju don't follow your laws and are capable of causing so much harm that you won't be able to stop. So, I can't let you take me in."

"It's not a request, Rider!" Shining shouted.

"Neither was mine. And the name is Jurassic." Jurassic said as a silver veil appeared behind him and made him disappear as it passed itself over him. They all look around in confusion wondering where Jurassic had disappeared.

"Weapons down." Dusk order everyone. "The higher up aren't going to like this." He said to himself.

The Dragons Cavern

Jurassic had reappeared in the living room and then undoes his transformation by taking off his belt. His armor shattered into small shards like stone and disappeared. Drago looks to the couch finding Discord there just filing his nails.

Drago smiles. "Thanks for the save. I almost thought I was gonna have to hurt them a bit to get out of there."

"Yup. You owe me big time." Discord said with a smirk. "And to answer the question you're going to ask, yes. Derpy's core made it back to her."

"That's good to hear. So, how'd she do on baking? Did she pass Emerald's test?"

"Why not head down to the cafe and find out? Everyone is mostly just waiting on you."

Interest in seeing what Derpy had made, Drago does as Discord said leaving out into the library, with Discord following behind him, and walked over to the cafe. He spots the guys including Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Rainbow Dash sitting at the tables talking. As he got close, he took notice of Ressha having several heating pads around his body.

"Finally! What took you so long?" Rainbow shouted out to him with a grin.

"Well, I had to stop kaiju, save people, and other things. You know. Just the same as any day." Drago said with a grin. He then takes notice of Ressha with small burses that could be seen. "What happened to you?"

"Griz might be strong but as soon as we switched back, my body got filled with sores and a bit of pain as an after effect." Ressha explained as he slowly scratched the back of his head with a hiss from feeling sore.

Applejack and the others laugh and chuckle at. "Well, now that you're here, Derpy will let us see what she baked."

"Why'd she make you guys wait?" Drago asked being curious.

Rarity scoffed playfully. "Darling, for you of course." She said confusing him. "She really wanted you to keep your oath."

"Really?"

"Yup siree!" Pinkie answered. "She said she was going to wait for everyone to get back before she'd presented what she made to Emerald. Blaze actually left to the kitchen as soon as Discord left to bring you back. So, she's most likely getting those bad boys ready right this second." She ends with a grin rubbing her hands together while liking her lips.

"I'm sure it's also because she's really grateful that you'd trust her with your secret." Fluttershy added.

"Thanks for waiting everyone." Everyone turns to see Derpy walking up to them carrying two trays with a cover over them along with Blaze next to her also carrying a tray. They placed the trays on separate tables. " We worked hard making these. Hopefully they'll be to your liking."

She removes the covers to reveal not just muffins with white drizzles but also pink cupcakes and a cake that was covered in a white frosting with red lining the sides and center in the shape of a rex skull. Everyone was surprised by these because they were expecting only muffins but to see all this amazed them.

Without hesitation they each tried something different. Discord, Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Reiji tried the cupcakes. Applejack, Negi, Rainbow, and Ressha went for the muffins. While Connor, Drago, Emerald, and Rarity tried the cake. Their eyes shoot wide open as Discord and Pinkie scarfed down their cupcakes before getting another one.

"Cotton candy cupcakes with marshmallow filling!" Pinkie shouted with a huge smile. "THESE ARE AMAZERIFIC!!"

Discord nods. "No arguments here."

"Same with these apple muffins." Negi added. "They're the best I've ever tasted."

Applejack smirks. "Then yah should give my families pastries a try, sugarcube. Your taste buds will be runnin' for the hills and back wantin' more."

Negi returns the smirk. "I'll hold you to that then."

"This is a coffee cake, right?" Rarity asked. "I must say darling, you did an splendid job balancing out the tastes of the coffee and cinnamin. Plus you didn't add too much frosting. I'm surprised you haven't caught Time Turner's attention with skills like this." She said with a playful smile and then chuckles seeing Derpy becoming red and getting flustered. Derpy was brought out of it when Emerald walked up to her and shook her hand.

Emerald gave her a happy, kind smile. "We can talk about your schedule some other time but I'll be looking forward to you working here, Derpy." She said making Derpy go wide eyed from shock for a second but then the biggest smile she's ever made spread across her lips.

"Thank you so much, Miss Emerald. I'll do my best to not let you down." Derpy shouted happily.

"Did you and Blaze really make all this yourselves?" Connor asked.

Derpy nodded to him with a smile. "Yup. Blaze is a really great helper. I was scared that we weren't going to finish in time but Blaze's speed, strength and fire is really helpful."

Everyone's attention was drawn towards Derpy when the light of her core appeared on her chest again to show the small hole being filled, completing it with the image of bubbles appearing on it. As the light faded, Derpy looked to Drago who gave her a warm smile.

"Looks like you feel whole again." Drago then gets surprised when she hugs him and hears it sniffle as tears fall down her face. "Are you okay-"

"Thank you." Derpy said with a tear going down her face. "Thank you so much." Hearing this brought a smile to Drago as he returned the hug.

"Anytime, Derpy." Drago told her. "You can always count on me and the others when you need us. How about we keep trying the rest of these? I'd like to taste a cupcake before Discord and Pinkie finish them." She nods to his suggestion as they move to try the other treats.

"By the way, Pinkie." Connor getting her attention. "What made you think my full name was Connor Match?"

Pinkie looks at him confused tilting her head till she giggles at him. "What are you talking about? That's easy. It says so on your ID cards. See? It says it right here?" She said as she pulled out their ID card as she read off their names. "Connor Match, Negi Data and Reiji Silver."

The guys take back their cards. "Huh. So, not just new looks and new clothes but I guess new names were on the list too." Reiji said with a smile. "Though if you want to call me by a nickname, I was called Ray by family, friends and people I knew."

Negi looks at Pinkie confused. "How or why did you have our ID cards?"

"Oh! That's easy." Pinkie stated. "I secretly took them while you guys were busy since I haven't been able to get to know you much. You see, I gather info on my family, friends and everyone I meet. I ask them questions without them realising or secretly get look into them so I can plan and throw the best parties I can that'll always bring a smile to them."

"That's a really great thing of you to want to do." Connor says with a smile but then deadpans. "But please don't take our stuff without asking. Or at least don't do that to me." Everyone laughs at the last sentence.

Within the Dark Realm

Within the dark realm at the same crystal area, Molten and Scarlet were there sitting and leaning on different spikes. Scarlet was reading a magazine while Molten was staring at the unicorn progrize key with a glare that he's gripping tightly on to. Molten slammed a fist into a spike next to him.

"How long are we going to be waiting here?" Molten asked with anger in his voice

Scarlet scoffs annoyed. "You and I both know how long we have to wait." Answering she looks around. "Though the others seem to be taking their sweet time. I wonder if they went to challenge the Riders. It'd be great to hear they got defeated by the Riders."

"Sorry to disappoint you but we aren't foolish enough to try our hands against the Riders like you." Said a guy that's their age appear behind her with two others appearing across them. "Some of us would rather wait till we had more options." The guy said as he walked over to the two that appeared.

The guy placing himself to the two's left had white skin, same as Rarity, with light brilliant blue eyes and long light amber hair, wearing a reddish-purple blazer, a white under shirt, dark blue tie, dark blue slacks, and black shoes. The person to the right is a tall light green skinned muscular guy with red eyes and short teal hair, wearing black shirt a green outline image of a dragon, blue jeans, and black boots. The last is a dark orchid skinned teen girl with moderate opal eyes and rose-colored hair that's lighter at the edges and goes up to her shoulders, wearing red shirt, a reddish-purple blazer with the buttons undone, a dark blue tie, a reddish-purple tartan skirt, and black shoes.

Scarlet grins. "Well, if it isn't our dear, Tempest Shadow. Along with the supposed king, Blueblood. And the undefeated Brutus. You all sure know how to keep a lady waiting."

"If there was a lady here." Tempest smirks at the glare Scarlet sends her.

Blueblood chuckles. "Well unlike you, we're busy trying to setup another event to destroy the seal. It's not something that can be easily set."

"Not that it should be any of your concern." Tempest added. "It's not our fault the master saw you as unstable to add into his plans." Scarlet scoffed looking away.

"So, can we go fight already? I have a score to settle with Zero-One." Molten said while cracking his knuckles.

"Soon enough." They heard and looked up to see the mysterious cloaked person floating in the air above them. "But for now, we must continue to distract the Riders while the next plan is being set." The person then sent a speck of light to the crystal floor that makes an image of the boy, Rumble, that Build saved at the mall. They all looked to the image showing the boy at what looks like a construction site holding a couple fullbottles. "Along with getting those before the Riders do."

Canterlot High

It was the next day, school was going normally as always till the school started rumbling a bit. Then a party pop sound echoed through the whole school as balloons, party streamers and confetti flew out every window. [Connor Match, Pinkie Pie and Reiji Silver please report to my office.] Vice principle Luna said through the PA.

To Be Continue

Chapter 4- Makings of a Hero

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 5- Clear Mind

A Construction Site

Driving into the site, Connor and Discord arrived with Rainbow Dash riding with Connor. It had been a couple hours since his battle with Brutus. Connor asked had asked Rumble where he had found the fullbottles and decided to go look at the area to see if he could find anything. Rainbow talked her way into coming along while Discord had been forced by Drago to go.

"Is that kid really sure this is where he found the bottles?" Discord asked in a bored tone as they got off their bikes and began going more into the site following Connor as he follows directions on his phone. "Maybe he remembered wrong and the actual area is a theme park."

"Would you stop being such a big baby?" Rainbow said annoyed. "If we could've. we would've brought one of the others with us. But unlucky for us, they were busy leaving only you as our option."

Discord grins. "Is that so? I thought it was because you desperately needed someone to tag along. If that is the case, I wonder if something on her mind is making her nervous to go alone to a place with a friend."

Rainbow stops walking as her face reddens. "W-What?! No! It's nothing like that and you know it!" She yells as she runs a bit to catch up. "The only reason your lazy ass had to come with us is because Drago thought it'd be safer for at least two Riders to be around in case there's trouble."

"Really? Hm. I wonder how true that is." Discord had said pretending to be in thought while laughing on the inside from seeing her reactions.

"Hey guys, over here." The two look ahead having heard Connor's voice come from inside the building under construction.

Not noticing he had walked ahead of them, they ran into the building to catch up, look into some empty rooms before they find him towards the back looking at a hole that's being dug bigger by Rabbit Engine. As the two got next to Connor, a box object is thrown out landing next to them along with three gray switches having the numbers 02, 03 and 04 on them. Jumping out of the hole, Rabbit Engine changes back into tank mode as it launched the rabbit fullbottle back to Connor.

Discord picks up the switches, while Connor and Rainbow look over the box seeing it's a gray with 10 slots on each side. They find 4 fullbottles on one of the sides that Connor takes off the box to look at.

"Wolf, vacuum, phoenix and robot. Didn't think I'd find another best match here." Connor smiles putting the bottles away.

Rainbow eyes the box. "Why does this thing have them though?"

"I think the more important question is, how'd it get here?" Discord pointed out making them wonder the same thing as they look around.

Canterlot High

Drago was outside the school walking in a circle around the statue having been there for 30 minutes. He had stayed back to have a talk with Sunset after having sent her a message to meet him there after school, but she had yet to show up. He sighs as he stops and leans against the statue with his arms crossed.

"Oh. Hey there, Drago." He heard a voice getting his attention. He looks towards the school to see Flash walking towards him with his guitar hanging on his back. "Didn't think you'd still be around. Are you waiting for someone?"

"Yeah. I'm actually waiting for Sunset." Drago stops noticing Flash glare at him. "I'm not waiting for her in that way. It's just I noticed she's been avoiding us lately. So, I wanted to see what's been bugging her. I sent her a message to meet me here, but something tells me she's not going to show up."

Flash walks over to lean against the statue next to Drago "Yeah. Same thing has been happening with me too. Besides the dance, she just keeps avoiding me every time I try talking to her. Besides how the school has been treating her, I guess she hasn't forgiven herself for what she had done, even if it was against her will."

Drago sighs. "I've been noticing the school's attitude too. They're making it hard for her to get back on her feet and start over. Who knows what'll happen if this continues." He looks to Flash after saying this. "I can count on you to have her back if she ever needs it, right?"

Flash smiles as he punched his shoulder. "That's my line. I was watching her back way before you guys showed up." The two laughed for a bit before Flash holds out his knuckle to Drago. "I can keep counting on you to help me have her back, right?

"You have my oath that I will." Drago says bumping his fist to Flash's.

[Cue Opening]

The Dragons Cavern

The cafe was going about its day normally with Emerald and Derpy minding the cafe, along with Blaze giving Derpy a helping hand, while guys were in the garage. It had been two days since they found the bottles and switches. The guys were using Sunday as a chance to relax or work on improving themselves.

In the garage the guys were each doing something different. Connor was continuing with his invention, Ressha was working his homework, Discord and Reiji training in their own way around the garage by playing laser tag against each other, while Drago was working on his bike with Negi assisting him. Drago was adjusting the parts following the instructions Negi gave him as he looked at blueprints in a touch screen tablet that Zea had sent them questionably.

"I still don't get what Zea is planning or thinking by having us do this." Negi said as he flipped looking through the blueprints. "Why have us make this upgrade to the bike? And why only one of the bikes?"

Drago shrugs. "Who knows. I'm just more curious on what will happen by doing this."

"Maybe Zea is planning to upgrade our bikes one by one to make a super robot or mega weapon." Reiji said as he avoided Discord's shots.

'He's been hanging out with Pinkie Pie too much.' Ressha chuckles. "Maybe. Though I think that's all just him plainly thinking it." 'Plus, doesn't he hangout more with a different girl?/Oh yeah. What was that girl's name?'

"Ha!" Discord shouted victoriously as he had got Reiji with his next shot that electrocuted him. "That's why I'm the best there is here in the wild west." He pops a gun holster into existence along with a cowboy hat and badge as he spun his gun and put it into the holster.

Reiji coughs out smoke. "How about toning down the voltage while I still have feeling left in my legs." After saying this, he looked over to Connor and walked over to him. He looks over Connor's shoulder to see that he was working on the programing of three different gadgets. One looked like a lock but the other two still seemed they were missing some parts to tell what they were. "What exactly are you working on? And what's with the lock?"

Connor sighs to the last questions. "The lock was something Rainbow annoyed me into making. I have to admit, it was actually a pretty good idea. That is till I made it better." He chuckled saying that. "As for the other two, they aren't really anything yet. I was just making them to be prepared."

"Prepared?" Reiji questioned raising a brow. "Prepared for-"

The guys suddenly get startled by what sounds like something crashing to the floor. "Miss Emerald!" Hearing Derpy scream they all rushed out of the garage.

The first thing they see running into the library is smoke coming out of the kitchen along with Derpy and Emerald leading everyone out the cafe. Connor immediately jumped down having used his rabbit armor magic and then switches to firetruck armor as he rushed towards the kitchen ready to put out the fire.

Derpy notices him as the last person left. "Connor, wait!" She shouted trying to stop him as he broke down the door.

"Huh?! Blaze?" Connor said confused finding Blaze sending smoke out the door. "Is this a prank from Discord or something?"

"Nope!" Discord spoke out as he ran over with the others. "Today's prank was random books coming to life."

Ressha raised a brow. "Wait. Really?" Curious, he picks up a random book from a table and opens it with a shark head sticking out the next second trying to bite him, making Momo take over to start beating it with the flat side of his magic sword. "Down, down, down you damn stupid fish! Back to the fucking sea!" Momo quickly shuts the book. "Never do that again, Ressha." 'Sorry./We should've kept it for some shark fin soup.' "Hell no! I don't want to deal with Fluttershy."

Drago looks to Emerald and Derpy as they walked over to them. "What exactly is going on? What was all that ruckus we heard? And why was Blaze faking a fire?"

"I'm not really sure either." Derpy answered. "Me and Blaze were just bringing a glass of lemonade to Miss Emerald, but she suddenly fell to the floor while she was reshelving will looking up at the ceiling. When we ran to her, she made Blaze fake a fire in the kitchen and then made me help her get everyone out the building."

Drago and the guys all look to Emerald. "Emerald, what's going on? As far as I remember, you've never once acted or done anything like this." She seemed to not hear him as him as her attention seemed to stay toward the ceiling. Curious, the guys and Derpy all look up to the ceiling and go wide eyed seeing the map of Equestria glowing faintly in a red color with the image of a dragon's head, with fire swirling around it, over a spot in the map where the Everfree Forest is.

"This day has gotten interesting." Reiji says scratching his head.

Blaze roars from over at the library's counter trying to get everyone's attention. Except for Emerald, everyone look to Blaze and notice a globe next to him glowing in a faint blue light while it spins. It stops spinning with the light having gathered at a desert on the map. Before they could question it, the guy's Rider symbols start blinking red and blue.

"What hell is this?" Momo asks.

"It... almost seems like a selection process." Connor says looking between their symbols. "I think something is trying to select on who's going to the areas on the maps."

The blinking stops when their symbols appear on the maps. Connor's and Reiji's appeared on Equestria's map, along a dragon mark. While Discord's and Ressha's appeared on the desert along with the bubble image that was on Derpy's core.

"Wait. Why aren't-" Reiji is cut off as he, Connor, Emerald, Discord, Derpy and Ressha are turned into orbs of light as portals open next to and above both maps. The orbs circle around the library for a second till they separate into two groups of three going into the portals that close as soon as they went into them. Drago and Negi looked around the room speechless.

"I have the feeling something big is about to happen in those locations." Negi said looking towards the globe.

Drago nods agreeing looking to the ceiling map. "Yeah. And that we were left behind for a reason."

Canterlot High

"WHAT?!" Rainbow's voice echoed through the area. Drago, Negi and the girls were all standing next to the school's statue. "What do you mean they disappeared?"

The guys had sent a message to all the girls telling them to meet up in front of the school's statue before school starts. Everyone had gotten there except for Sunset who told them that she wasn't going to be able to make it. Finding this odd, Drago sent Blaze to keep an eye on her.

The moment they all got there; they began to tell them all that happened the other day and that they had to leave a sign saying the cafe was going to be closed for a while. Though now everyone had their ears covered from Rainbow's shouting.

"Rainbow, there's no need ta shout." Applejack lectured her. She then looked to the guys. "Though ah do admit, I'm sure we all want ta know what's goin' on."

"Not really sure ourselves. As far as we can tell, the guys were called to two different places. One place in Equestria and the other at the Empty Quater Desert. Our guess is something is happening there that it needed the Riders help. Just not all the Riders since me and Drago were left behind."

"Oh, I just hope the poor dears are okay. A desert is a horrible place to set unprepared." Rarity said as she started looking through her backpack. "Sunscreen to protect your delicate skin, a hat to provide yourself with shade, clothe to wrap around your head keeping the sand out of your hair, and...what?" She was taking out said things till she noticed everyone's eyes on her.

"There is also the chance they get lost out there." Pinkie spoke out. "Or maybe get buried in a sandstorm, sink in quicksand, get bitten by cobras, attacked by thieves, or maybe-"

"Pinkie!" They all shouted at Pinkie startling her.

Pinkie giggles. "Sorry."

Rainbow sighs frustrated. "It's not just the desert. The others could be in trouble in Equestria too. You guys didn't even look around the castle you mentioned when you guys went over there, right?"

"That is true. Who knows what dangers could be over there." Fluttershy said in a worried tone making everyone start to get worried for their friends safety.

Seeing this, Drago pretends to cough getting their attention. "There's no chance of any of those happening." Drago said trying to reassure them. "For one, Derpy and Ressha have Discord with them. He can create many things for them to use. Plus, he could also summon up their bikes there if they need them. As for the others, Connor and Reiji have Emerald. She used to live there and still travels there from time to time."

Negi leans against the statue. "Meaning we've got nothing to worry about. All we can do is wait and see when they'll get back. What we should worry about is what we're going to do now that we're down four Riders."

Everyone thinks on that thought. "Hm...Maybe yah'll- Incoming." Applejack quietly said the last part.

They look towards the front of the school going surprised seeing Chief Dusk and Shining walking across the street heading their way. They quickly turn back to each other and huddle up a bit.

"Remember, not a word about us being Riders. Got it, Pinkie and Rainbow" Drago said sternly.

The two were about to argue back but stopped seeing all of them give them deadpan looks. "Got it." Pinkie and Rainbow said one looking a bit hurt and the other frowning. Hearing the footsteps, they began a random conversation.

"Excuse me. Can we have a moment of your time?" Shining asked stopping next to them with Dusk standing by his side. "We'd like to ask you about the recent events of kaiju attacks."

"Of course, officers." Rarity responded. "I haven't a clue what we could tell you to help but we'll answer your questions the best we can."

"Don't worry. This won't take long." Dusk reassured them. "We just wanted to find the source of this school's latest newspaper on the Riders." He said holding out their school's newspaper.

In this paper was an article about the latest of the Riders battle. Mentioning Zero-One's battle against the Guardians, Jurassic's new equipment, and the rematch between Build and Brutus.

Rarity pretends to think. "Oh yes. We were surprised by that news too. Everyone here was beginning to think the school was always going to be a target. Glad we were proven wrong."

"Yes. Though unlike the last couple of times, no one knew about this battle till it began the moment the Riders arrived on the scene. And we didn't see or find anyone around at the scene of this battle." Dusk informed.

Shining walks closer with a stern look. "Meaning that a student either got past us without anyone noticing them, they were there already knowing of the battle, or was in the middle of that battle themselves the whole time." Everyone did their best to not let their nevousness be shown.

"We just want to question them on how they came by this information. That is all." Dusk assured them pushing Shining back. "Do you have any idea who the source of this information could be?"

Rainbow and the others mentally slap their heads knowing it was her who spilled on the knowledge of the battle. Everyone tried thinking of a way to avoid the question in their heads while trying their best to act normally. Applejack, Fluttershy and Rarity were starting to wish a bit that Discord was around.

Dusk notices their hesitation. "Are you-"

"KYAAAA!!" They all turn around having heard the scream to see a girl laying on the sidewalk. "Owie." The girl said as she got up.

The girl has blue eyes with yellow skin and orange hair. She was wearing a white dress with pink flowers lining the edges and collar of the dress, a sleeveless red vest, red and white slip-on shoes, and a camera hanging around her neck.

"Oh. Morning, Rainbow Dash!" The girl shouted shove past Dusk and Shining as she ran over to them. "It's rare to see you here so early with a group. Is there a match coming up soon that I missed hearing about?"

"Hey, Summer. Nah. Me and the gang just decided to meet up early to talk about the musical event." Rainbow came up with as explaination. "What about you? What are doing here so early?"

"Had to come see if today's paper is ready to be put up." Summer answered before turn to Dusk and Shining. "Though what could bring our cities officers here? Oh, is there another kaiju case here? It's easy to get information on attacks here. But it's a bit of a hassle finding the right information."

"I'm guessing that you're in charge of the school's news, am I right?" Dusk asked.

Summer smiles saluting. "That's right! Summer Shine, president of the school news at your service, sir!" She reaches into her pocket pulling out her phone putting the voice record setting on. "What brings you officers here to our school? Is there another kaiju case here? Do the students of CHS need to be afraid of coming to school?"

"No, no, no!" Dusk said holding his hands up. "We only came here to question the source giving you the information on the Riders."

"Oh. That's reasonable. But showing up like this gives others the wrong idea, if you know what I mean." Summer stated with her arms crossed. "Look at my friend and fellow students, you've made them really nervous and afraid of the idea of kaiju being around. If you need more proof, look around you then."

Dusk and Shining look behind themselves to see some students walking up to the school, who slow down once seeing the two and either walk by slowly without a word or walk by whispering to each other. While the two had their backs turned Drago and Negi feel something off as they start looking around but stop hearing a notification coming up on their phones.

"I suggest you take your leave and come back after giving the school a head's up, so we students know there's nothing to be afraid of seeing you here." Summer said in a scolding manner.

"But you haven't-" Shining was saying as he turned back but was stopped by Dusk holding up his hand.

Dusk turns back bowing a bit. "You're right. We should've let the principle know we were coming. Our superiors have just been breathing down our necks lately wanting answers and flipped when news of your school's paper reached them." He straightened himself looking back up to them. "For that we apologize. We'll come back again another time after letting your principle know. Sorry for taking up your time. Let's go, Detective."

Shining sighs. "Yes sir. I better not see any of you skipping out on school anywhere." He said to them before following Dusk.

The girls had held their breath watching the two walking back to their car, get in it and drive off. They all let out a breath of relief as the car left out of sight and then look to Summer who's grinning at them.

"Thanks for the save there, Summer. I owe you one." Rainbow said relaxing a bit.

"Well, I couldn't let one of my informants get caught. Without you three, I wouldn't have any exciting news on the Riders battles. If not for that, I would've gladly given you up." Summer laughs from Rainbow glaring at her. "I'm joking. What are friends for. If you need my help on anything, let me know."

Rainbow smirks. "Me needing help, yeah ri-" She stops seeing Applejack and Rarity deadpan at her. "I mean, yeah. That's good to know. Thanks."

"Well, I've got to go. I still need to check on the papers. Oh, and the school's website. Almost forgot that one." Summer runs to the doors of the school and turns back wave at them before going in.

"Well, that certainly was nerve wrecking." Rarity said holding a hand over her chest.

"A-And scary." Fluttershy added. Through the whole thing she had held her backpack in front of her like a shield and hid her face behind hair.

"Let's just be glad they didn' try pressin' us for answers." Applejack said leaning against the statue.

Rainbow chuckles. "Yeah. You guys are lucky. Imagine how things would've gone if they found out your...What the- Where'd they go?!" She shouted with her and the girls looking around noticing Drago and Negi were gone.

"Who knows. All they told me was that they'd be back, after I asked them where they were going." Pinkie says with the girls turning to look at her while she looks around using her hands like binoculars. "I wonder where they went?" While Fluttershy shakes her head, the other girls slapped a hand to their foreheads.

Everwood Park

Sunset was looks around as she walked around the park. She looks at her phone that shows a message from an unknown number saying for her to meet them at the Everwood park alone without telling anyone. She would've just ignored it and tell the girls but a second message having picks of the girls, guys and Flash saying they would be badly hurt if she didn't agree to meet them now.

She knows the guys would be fine from any danger. But she couldn't say the same for the girls and Flash. Not wanting anything to happen to them, she agreed to go and went straight there without letting anyone know.

"What the hell. Where is this person?" Sunset said looking before looking at the message on her phone. "At first I thought this was from Molten but this isn't his style. He likes to face things in person and wouldn't keep a person waiting and looking for him like this. But if not him, then who- Ugh!"

Sunset was knocked off her feet from someone who appeared behind her. Before her back could hit the floor, the person grabbed the collar of her shirt as they then dragged her a bit across the ground and slammed her against a tree with an arm against her throat.

Keeping Sunset against the tree is girl with brilliant amber eyes, light brown skin, and long fringe white hair with the tips of the fringe being a light grayish heliotrope that cover one of her eyes. Wearing black colored biker outfit with the leather jacket having small spikes lined on both shoulders.

"Hello, hot stuff." The girl says with devilish grin. "I was wondering how long it was going to take you to get here."

"G-Gilda? Is that you?" Sunset asked looking her over. "What happened to you? You just suddenly disappeared after..."

"After Molten had the hell beaten out of me for trying to go against him." Gilda scoffed. "If you were going to back stab me, then you should've at least had the guts do it yourself."

Sunset shakes her head. "No. That wasn't by my choice. Molten for-" Stops gasping for air after Gilda kneed her stomach. Sunset falls to her knees but then is hit to the side onto the floor from Gilda having kicked her across the face.

Gilda chuckles. "You really think I'd believe anything you'd have to say? Believe the person I thought I could trust to stay, only to back stab me for that asshole?" She shouted walking next to Sunset and then places her foot against Sunset's head. "You lost the right for my trust and belief that day."

"So, this is the infamous Sunset Shimmer you kept talking about?" A male voice was heard.

Sunset looks a bit up to see a guy in a red business suit wearing red leather gloves. The guy has light gray skin, black spiky hair, and crimson-colored eyes. Sunset felt a chill go down her back seeing the grin on the guy's face.

"Doesn't seem like much, if you ask me." The guy said as he twirls a strand of her hair around his finger.

"Enough! I didn't wait all this time just for you to make her into a new toy for yourself, Faust." Gilda said in angered voice.

Faust sighs. "Yes, yes, yes. As you wish. Let the game begin." He snaps his finger while getting up.

Seeing him walk to the side of her vision, Sunset follows his direction but goes a bit pale with fright seeing a group of people walk towards her. She tries squirm free from under Gilda's foot who looks down to her with a sad look in her eyes for a second before shaking her head and looking down at her with a smirk.

"Now you'll get to feel what it felt like when Molten had his group beat me around like a toy. You'll suffer that same feeling." Gilda whispered into Sunset's ear after having knelt down close to her without putting more weight on her head. "Have fun, Sun-"

As the group got closer, a trash can comes crash into a couple of them, knocking them over. "Hey! What the fucking hell do you think you're doing?" A guy's voice shouted at them.

Everyone turns towards the direction of the voice and see two guys walking over to them. One of the guys has red eyes, black skin and long white hair. While the other guy's eye color is major blue, with light blue skin and hedgehog like spiky hair that's a mix of blue and purple. Both are wearing uniforms same as Blueblood, except the first guy is without a tie and the second has a black shirt with a cosmic image on it and a moon sown onto his blazer.

"I'm not sure what the girl has done to you but take it somewhere else." The red eye guy said. "I've had to wait days to hang out at my favorite spot. So, I'd rather not have this place closed off again because you assholes are too lazy to find a different place."

The other makes a disappointed look at him. "Come on, Midnight. You can't really be willing to let these guys gang up on one person."

"Unlike you Astral, I don't get myself involved in other's business. As long as they leave me alone and do nothing to bother me." Midnight said before turning to leave.

Astral was about to try to stop him again but stops when two people of the group run past him and go straight for Midnight. Before anyone could say anything, Midnight stops ducking under the first person while elbowing the second person in the stomach.

"What?!" Gilda said surprised while Faust grinned.

He then knees the first person using his right leg as they turned to face him and then thrusted a kick into the second, making them fall flat on their back. Using the momentum of the kick to place himself next to the first, wrapped his arm around the person's neck as he swept his leg under theirs, and then threw them over himself and onto the second.

Faust chuckles. "Now the game has become interesting." He snaps his fingers. The group of people all change into Riotoozes. "Game start." He pointed a finger towards the two, the Riotoozes charged towards them.

"And here I went to the trouble of warning you." Midnight said cracking his neck. He then runs going past Astral and towards the kaiju.

"That works too." Astral says then doing the same charging at them.

Sunset started struggling again. "No! Runaway!" She shouted trying to get out from under Gilda's foot.

"Quit your struggling." Gilda says with an annoyed glare. But then makes a confused look when Sunset stops looking towards the two with a surprised look. "What's with that stupid...What the hell?!" The two were surprised to see Midnight and Astral handling themselves against the Riotoozes.

As the Riotoozes threw themselves at Midnight, either by trying to tackle or swing a punch at him, he went past them as he avoided and ducked under them. The next two to throw a punch he caught their arms, used their momentum to swing them over himself and slammed them into the ground. Without looking he turns swinging his kick high, kicks a kaiju across the face and keeps up the pace as he spun around to not lose speed and rapidly kicks two Riotoozes against their chests as they ran up to him, then sends them flying back into a small group of them. While moving his head to the side to avoid one trying to attack him from behind, Midnight thrusts his left foot to trip it and swings his right fist over his left shoulder making the Riotooze fall into it. As it stumbled back from the pain, Midnight jumps a bit over it, spins once before bringing his knee down into its chest, he lands on one knee as the Riotooze fell to its back.

Astral was getting beaten around a bit but was also getting his own hits in as well. Getting punched by one, he kicks the same Riotooze across the face as he fell to the floor. "Wait, wait, wait!" Two grabbed onto his arms pulling him back up. He pulls along with them to swing himself over them while still holding onto their arms and then slammed his knees into the back of their necks, bringing them to the floor. "I told you to wait. Who's ne-" He quickly gets to his back to hold a Riotooze that tried diving at him by reeling his legs back and then trusts it back making it land on top of others. "Like I was say who's next."

"RAAAHHHH!!" Riotoozes to his right roared at him in response charging at him.

"Now we're talking." Astral says full of excitement as he ran doing the same.

He runs past the first avoiding its claws, then he punches the second across the face and then swings it around shoving it into the first, he gets punched by the third making him hiss a pit. "Now that hurt." He grabs a hold of it, then proceeds to headbutt it, they both reel back feeling a bit dizzy, Astral shakes out of the dizziness before drop kicking it back.

"Interesting." Faust said looking at a tablet showing two separate charts with a meter in both rising slowing. "Are these two candidates?" He chuckles saying that. "If so, level 2." He snaps a different finger making the Riotoozes start charging energy attacks.

Sunset wanted to warn them, but her face pressed into the ground. "Looks like this is the end for your knights." She only gets a couple seconds to watch the scene with smile till she hears a motorcycle. "Who cou-Ah!" She screamed having jumped to the side from having turned to see a wheel in the air getting closer to her.

Hearing the motorcycle sound and Gilda's foot off her head, she looks ahead to see Drago and Negi driving into the group of Riotoozes. They stop sliding sideways into the ones about to blast Astral and Midnight, knocking the kaiju over. The two make a bit of a curious look seeing the guys fight the Riotoozes.

"Huh. And here I though me and the guys were the only crazy ones to face the Riotoozes without magic." Negi said getting off his bike. They see Sunset run over to them but make worried looks seeing a bit of scrapes on her face. "Sunset, are you okay?"

"I-I'm fine. Just a bit banged up." Sunset said avoiding looking them in the eyes. "It's just something I deserved."

The two get confused by this. "What are you talking about, Sunset? And what are you doing here?" Drago asked.

"To meet me." Sunset and the guys look back to see Gilda glaring at them. "I'm not sure who you are but get lost. This reunion has nothing to do with you."

Drago and Negi place themselves in front of Sunset with the two returning the glare. "I'm not sure what happened between you two, but we aren't going to leave and let you have your way hurting Sunset." Drago states with him and Negi getting into stances. "So, if you want her, you'll have to get through us first."

"Have it your way." Gilda says rolling up her jackets sleeve showing a USB port looking tattoo on her wrist while holding up a USB looking device with a spine skeletal design with a picture of a knife and machine gun against each other making an 'A' shape. (Arms!)

"A Giga Memory?" Negi said see her press the connection part of the USB against the tattoo port.

Gilda begins to glow as the memory went into her and morphs into red looking kaiju with silver armor and a huge great sword with the blade broken at the top on its back with guns around its waist, large bullets going around the bottom part of its chest armor, spike shoulder armor on its right arm, throwing knives hanging on its left should armor, knuckle braces on both hands, and a skull shaped helmet. Now stand ahead of them is the Arms Dopant.

"It's time to pay, Sunset!" The Dopant shouted pointing its left arm towards them as it transformed into into a four barreled gun with a 5th barrel under it and a handle above it making the three along with Astral and Midnight, who were led against them, go wide eyed.

"Take cover!" Negi yells out as they all run in opposite directions.

Arms begins shooting burning bullets at them, changing targets after shooting a couple times at one. These shots were powerful based on how much damaged they saw these cause to the objects they hit. Negi uses his magic to jump high up using the jump ability, the jump ability changes to gatling as the kaiju and him eye each other, then he fired needles from his wrists as it shoots up at him. Arms bullets go through the needles easily and come close to hitting him.

"Gatling didn't work at all." Negi said to himself as he landed and ran from the shots again.

Arms takes notice of Sunset hiding behind a tree and points the gun towards her taking aim.

"Don't even think about it." Drago yells hitting its side with a red aura punch but doesn't do much. "How tough is this thing." He quickly jumps back as Arms changed the gun arm into a huge blade that's divided in the middle. "Okay. Maybe this will work."

Drago summons out the Exacore in sword mode. He begins to concentrate, making a blue aura cover the sword's blade. The two begin exchanging slashes as their blades collide. Arms takes notice that each time Drago's sword hit it left small slash gashes. When their weapons collide, the Dopant sees the sword begin to cut into its blade bit by bit as they pushed each other back.

"Kyah!" Hearing Sunset scream, Drago looks to his left to see hear getting attacked by Riotoozes. Losing some of his concentration the blue aura begins to waver. Arms takes notice of this and takes the chance to grab its broken sword. Drago focus is brought back when Arms shoves him back as it begins to furiously swing its swords at him, making him go on the defense as he blocked each hit. Before he could try anything, the Dopant brings its swords together to do a cross slash that shatters the blue aura and hits the sword out of Drago's hands.

"I'll have your head." Arms shouts bringing down its sword at Drago but is stopped by Negi who has shark fang blades coming out his arms with the word 'Fang' next to 'Ability'. "You little-"

"Maybe some other time." Negi says shoving Arms back and slashing across its chest.

"You piece of shit!" Arms yelled as Negi continued slashing at it. He made sure to stay close so it would use its gun as he avoided its attacks as he kept delivering slashes as he dodged. After a couple hits, Negi swings his arm with all his might delivering a long slash going all the way across the chest diagonally, making fly off it and making it stumble back.

(Full Charge!) Negi was about to run up to Arms again but stops hearing that. Drago and him look across the field to see Faust pointing a black and light blue colored shot gun type weapon towards them. "Ciao." Negi make a confused look towards him hearing that but then goes wide eyed as he pulled the trigger and fires an explosive red blast towards them.. (Dynamaiting Kaban Buster!)

The two brace themselves for the attack but a stream of fire comes flying over them intercepting the blast and causing it to explode in the middle of some Riotoozes. As everyone gets surprised by this, Sunset gets startled falling into a whole in the ground that opens up under her, then a wave of water shows up next to Astral and Midnight. The water crashes into the Riotoozes they were fighting and decide to leave after taking one last look at the battle.

Arms looks to Drago and Negi. "What'd you do? Where'd you hide Sunset?" It shouted at them about to charge but gets surrounded by a green whirl wind that starts doing damaged to the Dopant as slash sparks fly off it. "Arghh!" It shouted in pain.

Drago shakes him head before getting up and running up to Negi. "Come on. We need to go now."

"Alright. But first." Negi brings out the silver progrise key to scan the weapon as Faust just held it in place with a smile. "I'm taking Attache Shotgun's data back with us." They quickly get on their bikes and left the area.

The whirlwind stops, letting Arms look around and seeing no one but Faust left. "RRRAAAAAAHHHHHH!!" The Dopant screamed out into the sky.

The Dragons Cavern

The moment they got back to the cafe and parked inside the garage; Drago just went straight into the building leaving Negi with a confused look as he watched him leave the garage and then turned to look at the bikes to see an extra bike parked along with theirs and the others. It's a black and emerald green colored offroad bike.

"Whose bike is this?" Negi asks himself looking it over.

After looking it over for a couple of seconds, Negi decides to head in. He looked around the place for Drago and ends up finding him sitting at a table in the cafe near the counter. Negi sees him looking over one of the yet to awaken alpha cores, as he walked over to him.

"Trying to figure out how to wake it up?" Negi asked as he sat down across from him.

Drago nods. "Yeah. But I haven't been able to figure how to awaken both this and the other core yet. I know it involves focus but everything I've tried hasn't done anything. I mean, what exactly do I need? What am I missing?"

"Well judging from what I saw during that battle," Negi says while spinning the silver progrise key on the tip of his finger. "I might have an idea on what kind of focus it's looking for." Negi gets up walking over to a section in the library and begins looking through one of the shelves.

"Really? Alright then. Let's hear what you have in mind." Drago said curious on what he had to say.

After a few seconds, Negi grabs a book, walks back over opening it, and then lays it onto the table after having flipped through some pages. "Okay. I think this is what the alpha core wants."

The Mall

Inside a mall with many people walking around, the girls had entered the mall having driven there with Rainbow caring a guitar case. They had gone there because Rainbow wanted to go to a music store to look for a new guitar. Though it wasn't just the five of them. Along with them were three girls who are part of a club known as the Canterlot Movie Club or the CMC for short. The club's members were Applejack's little sister Apple Bloom, Rarity's little sister Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo who Rainbow Dash likes to act as a big sister for.

"You three do remember to meet us at the food court after the movie is over, right?" Rarity asked eyeing the three.

"Yes. We know, Rarity." Sweetie Belle says sounding impatient. "Can we go now? We want to get good seats."

Rarity sighs before smiling. "Alright. Go on then. Go enjoy the movie." She then gets a bit surprised by her sister hugging her.

"Thanks again for bringing us with you. You the best big sister ever." Sweetie Belle smiles saying. She then breaks the hug as she and her friend waved bye as they separated from their sisters group. "We'll see you after the movie."

"Yah three better not try watchin' another movie after the first, yah hear." Applejack yelled over to them. "Yah'll still got homework ta do later."

"Don't worry, sis. We won't." Apple Bloom yelled back.

"Have fun, squirts! Try not getting yourselves into any trouble." Rainbow said smiling.

Scootaloo rolls her eyes playfully. "No promises."

While they walked going down in the different direction, Fluttershy takes notice Pinkie trying to figure something out as she goes through an imaginary list.

"Is everything alright, Pinkie? If you don't mind me asking but...is something bothering you?" Fluttershy asked a bit concerned getting her other friends attentions.

Pinkie shakes her head. "No. I'm just trying to figure out what movie they're going to watch. They wouldn't even give me a hint about it. So, I'm trying to figure it out to surprise them on it later but it's really weird."

"What's weird?" Rainbow asks confused along with the others.

"Well as far as I can remember, and I should know because I have a great memory, there shouldn't be any movies out that they've talked about watching." Pinkie says tapping her chin. "So, what could they be up to?"

Rarity raised a brow. "How would you know what movies they're planning to watch?"

"Oh! That's because I'm part of the club" Pinkie showed them a handmade CMC membership card.

While this was happening, the CMC continued walking around the mall as they pass by the theater. They were looking around the area and inside the stores.

"You two see him yet?" Apple Bloom asked looking around.

"Nope." The two said in unison.

Apple Bloom looks to Scootaloo. "Scootaloo, I thought you said Rumble was going to be here today."

"I did. I heard him say so himself." Scootaloo scratches her head confused while looking around. "He said he was planning on coming here today with Connor." Saying this makes Sweetie Belle stop looking and turn to her with a deadpan look.

"Let me guess, he told you this morning when you walked with him to school, right?" Sweetie asked.

"Yup."

"You didn't talk to him throughout the rest of the day in school, right?"

"Yeah. He seemed to be busy thinking about something. So, I left him alone."

"And you said he was still coming here because you saw him get on a bus, right?"

"Exactly. Meaning he should be here somewhere."

Sweetie Belle sighs putting a hand to her face. "No. He's not going to be anywhere around here."

"What makes you say that?" Scootaloo asked confused.

"I overheard Rarity talking to Fluttershy about them being worried for Connor and a couple of the other new guys because they had to leave somewhere for a bit at last minute."

Scootaloo takes a while to take in the new information till it clicks. "Oooohhhh. T-That means-"

"It means he was never here to begin with!" Sweetie shouted making a lot of people look at her. She face turns red from this. "Sorry." She said out load feeling embarrassed as the people continue with their day.

"What should we do now? Rumble is the only person we know that's met a Rider twice." Scootaloo says looking around. "I doubt we'll be lucky enough to find someone else who's met a Rider."

"Why don't we just go watch a movie like we told our sisters?" Apple Bloom suggests. "It'd be better than just sittin' around."

Sweetie nods. "Yeah. We shouldn't just waist the trip having come here."

Scootaloo frowns. "I guess so. Though I would've really liked to have met Build."

"Well then come on. If we hurry, we can-Uh!" Apple Bloom was about to turn to rush to the theater but bumps into someone. She was going to fall over but the person grabs onto her arm in time to pull her up. "Sorry about. I should've-" She stops going wide eyed at who's in front of her, with her friends doing the same behind her.

They were surprised to see the person standing in front of them is Spike. He looked the same, but his clothes were different. He still had a shirt with the image of a dragon on it but the shirt was white with elements spiraling around it, black jeans, the same white sneakers but the color of the flames on it are green, a belt with a claw mark on a silver buckle, a ring with a red gem on his left hand and a black jacket.

"No. It's alright. That was my fault too. I wasn't looking...either." Spike makes a confused look from seeing how they're staring at him. "Um...Is something wrong?"

Apple Bloom's friends point at him. "Aren't you-mhm!" Scootaloo was about to ask but Apple Bloom quickly covered her mouth.

"Sorry about that." Apple Bloom apologized. "Yah just resembled a friend we know that we got confused there for a sec."

"Really? I wonder if I'll meet them at some point then." He said looking around before focusing back on the three. "Also, the names Spike."

Apple Bloom smiles. "Nice ta meet yah. My name is Apple Bloom. And these are my friends Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle." She had said holding out a hand towards her friends. "So, what brings yah here today?"

"I actually just moved here today and thought it'd be good to go looking around the area to get used to it." Spike puts his hands into his jacket's pockets. "I'll be starting school tomorrow."

"Really? What school are you going to be attending?" Sweetie asked curious.

Spike taps his chin. "If I remember correctly, it's called Canterlot High School." The girls brighten up at hearing this.

Scootaloo shoves Apple Bloom's hand off. "That's the school we go to."

"Huh. I wonder if we'll have some classes with each other." He looks around to the crowd of people. "The place I came from wasn't this lively. I wonder if this place is going to be exciting."

"You have no idea." Scootaloo said smiling.

"We were actually about to go watch a movie. If you want, you can join in and watch it with us." Apple Bloom suggested. "And afterwards our sisters and us can show you around a couple places."

Spike thinks about for a seconds before nodding. "Yeah. Sounds good to me. Mind leading the way then?" He moves to the side saying this, allowing the girls to walk by him a bit till he started walking along with them as they talked while heading to the theater.

Deep in the Everwood Forest

"DAMN IT, DAMN IT, DAMN IT!!" Gilda shouted.

Ever since the battle a few minutes ago, Gilda had been full of rage as she continuously punches one of many trees that surrounds them. Faust was sitting on a boulder that was a couple feet away from her. He watched with a smirk before looking back at a tablet he's holding that's showing data from the battle.

"Not just two but three candidates appeared in that battle. It seems the Riders draw each other in." He looks over to Gilda smiling. "Looks like Sunset has become out of reach now that Jurassic and Zero-One are protecting her."

"Doesn't matter. I can easily get rid of those two." She states with a glare.

Faust hums tapping a finger to his chin. "Maybe Jurassic. But Zero-One is in a different level compared to you. You'd be lucky to last 3 minutes against him."

"Then what do you suggest I do?"

"What I suggest is...for Reaper to make this quick."

Gilda looks at him confused at first but then a look of pain replaces it as she feels her back being filled with pain. Not being able to move and gasping for air, her eyes slowly look to her left to see a person completely covered in a hooded black cloak with their face hidden behind an Oni mask.

As she fell to her knees, Faust walked over to her and pulls out her Gaia Memory from her pocket after uncovering her tattoo port.

(Arms!) "How strong will a Dopant get with a primal core. Lets find out." He then puts the memory into her.

Gilda completely falls to the floor transforming. "Agh!" Arms continuously cried as pain from its body mutating was happening with sparks of energy coming off all around its body.

"So, is the item I requested for ready?" Faust asked looking to Reaper.

"Not yet. Though I'm close to achieving success." Reaper spoke in a distorted voice. "I do have something I'd like for you to test for me." Reaper brings out a suitcase and hands it over to Faust, who opens it to look inside. "Can I count of you for results?"

Faust chuckles. "Is that not already obvious?" Their focus is then drawn to Arms as its body begins to glow brightly as the sounds of skin and bones ripping and breaking could be heard in the light. "Things are about to become exciting."

"KYAAAAA!!" Arms scream with the sound of Gilda's voice echoed throughout the forest.

Dragons Cavern

Drago was walking through the library with books hanging tied to the railings and ceiling, and objects such as plants, statues, and chairs placed on top of tables. These objects were placed and left along the sections of the library. He was holding the Exacore in both hands and blind folded with a bit of sweat dripping down his face.

As Drago walked, Negi and Blaze quickly and quietly moved around the library avoiding him. They had been at this for about close to two hours. Drago stops walking as he got to the center as he begins to put his focus on sensing the two, with blue aura building onto the sword's blade. Negi prepares to strike at the top of a shelf as Drago takes a stance but the two stop as their phones notification alarms go off.

Negi jumps down as they look at their phones. "It's Zea. Looks like Gilda has popped up and Zea decided to track her movements."

"Judging from where she's going, she's heading towards- We need to get there fast." Drago said with Negi nodding in agreement as they ran to the garage.

The Mall

"This is awesome." Rainbow says out load while looking back at her wings. "Man, I wish we were outside already so I could fly around again."

They had first been going around to other stores the others wanted to stop to look around before they got to the music store. There Rainbow ended up having a shred off against a girl named Trixie to win a guitar they were both after but decided on with a guitar she had used during the competition.

During the shred off, Rainbow had gained the wings, ears and ponytail she and the others had gotten during the Fall Formal. People were stopping to stare at her as she and the girls were heading towards the food court to meet the CMC.

"That probably ain't a good idea, Rainbow. Who knows how long them wings will stick around for." Applejack pointed out. "It'd be real messy if they left while yah were in the air."

"Oh. That would be awful." Fluttershy said scared at the thought.

Pinkie turned walking backwards behind Rarity to face them. "But imagine all the things you could do with them. You could get everywhere you want, fly through the sky doing tricks, easily getting any food or snacks you want from the stores. Oh and also"

Everyone laughed as Pinkie continues naming other ideas. Rarity catches sight of their sisters sitting at a table in the distance as they were reaching the food court. She was about to call out to them but stops when Faust appears out of nowhere in front of her. Having stopped causes the girls to crash into her one by one, making them fall to the floor on top of each other.

"What in tarnation. Rarity, why'd yah stop like that?" Applejack asked annoyed.

"Yeah! You almost made me drop my guitar." Rainbow says sounding a bit upset.

Faust laughs at them. "Humans. Whether here or in other worlds, they all do know how to bring entertainment."

"W-What?! But-how-where'd you-" Rarity stammers trying to distinguish how he appeared. "Who are you?"

Faust chuckles. "All I can tell you is that I go by many names and that the game is about to start." He ends pulling out a gun device of sorts with two slots under the barrel and shows them two fullbottles.

"Those are Builds!" Pinkie gasped shouting.

"Now, shall we begin the experiment?" Faust asked in a devilish tone with his eyes glowing. (Spider! Reizoko!) The device announced out loud in a distorted voice of Build's belt making people walking by stop to watch. He then inserts what looks like a playing card into the side of the gun. (Locust Undead! Corruption!!) A distorted version of Build's jingle played after pushing the barrel forward. "Distort summons." He then turns shooting towards the food court with people screaming as they either ran or jumped out of the shot's way.

"What's with all the screaming?" Scootaloo asked curious as they and other looked towards the scene.

"Get down!" Spike shouted ducking down with the girls doing the same as the shot passed by over there.

Spike, the girls and everyone else around watched as the shot hits the center of the food court creating a black vapor around the spot for a few seconds before dispersing to reveal a black and green humanoid Locust kaiju with two wings on its back.

The kaiju changes as glowing images of a spider and Refrigerator hovering over it move into its body. Half of the green on its exoskeleton body turns purple while the other half turns white. The wings on its back melting back into it and 8 spider looking legs replacing them.

The Undead lets out a screeching roar that sends out a dark purple-ish wave throughout the whole building which causes Riotoozes to spawn out of shadows all around. People started to panic and run in different directions as they tried avoiding the grunts. Spike and the girls hid in the hallway leading to the restrooms and watched peeking around the corner as some of the people were hit or thrown around by the grunts with the Undead doing the same.

'Things aren't looking so good. I should get Apple Bloom and her friends out of here.' Spike thought to himself looking at all the chaos. He looks back to the girls. "We should try getting out of here."

Apple Bloom and the girls shook their heads. "No! We have ta wait here for our sisters."

"Yeah. We promised them that we'd stay here." Sweetie Belle said agreeing with her friend.

"I'm sure they'd be hoping to find you three outside." Spike tried persuading them. "So, I say we get going before these things take notice of us and/or decide block off the exits. We should be getting out of here."

Scootaloo frowns at him. "Not a chance. Rainbow Dash knows we would wait here. So, she and others will definitely be coming here to get us."

'They really aren't going to make this easy.' He thought to himself with a sigh. "Look I get that-"

"Hm...What's that thing doing?" The three heard and turn to see Sweetie peeking out again. "I can't really tell from how far it is, but that thing is standing still." She told her friends and Spike as they moved over to her.

Peeking out, they can barely see what the Undead is doing but Rainbow and the girls can clearly see its legs change into locust legs and begin to emit a cold mist that freezes the floor its standing on. The next thing it does makes their eyes go wide with fright as the Undead starts jumping all around the mall. The moment its feet touches the ceiling, walls, and both floor levels, the image of a web appears on them, both objects and people within the image freeze in an instant.

Faust laughs seeing the girls mixed looks of shock and horror then looks back to Locust. "Seems like the update to the experiment is a success." He says chuckling at the end making the girls turn to look back at him with glares except for Fluttershy, who's shaking with fear behind Rarity. "What's with the faces. You and every human here should be grateful for being part of the excitement."

"That's bullshit and you know it!" Rainbow shouted at him. "Who'd be grateful for being a part of this?"

"And who said yah could go doin' whatever the hell yah want to others? Though I'm sure we can guess who you're workin' with." Applejack adds.

"Oh? And who'd that be?" Faust happily said in a sarcastic manner.

Rarity scoffs. "Who else. Brutus, Molten and Scarlet." Rarity says pointing a finger at him. "A horrible hearted brute like you must be with them."

"Yeah! You meanies are on the same team!" Pinkie shouted. Faust laughs at this making the girls a bit confused. "Uhm...Was what I said funny?" Pinkie asked looking at her friends.

Faust smiles to them. "If only you humans knew how close and far you are from the truth. But you five deserve a treat. But we need the main event to arrive first."

Rainbow steps a bit forward. "What's that suppose to-"

"Rainbow, look out!" Sunset shouted surprising Rainbow and the girls.

Sunset came quickly running to them as she tackles Rainbow down. The second she does, saw blades pass by where she had been standing. The railing, bench and potted plants next to the two fell into pieces from having been cleanly sliced through.

"Did someone say Rainbow Dash's name?" Scootaloo asked. They had heard the shout from where they were. They notice Scootaloo beginning to get worried. Before they could say anything, she runs off on her own out of hiding.

"Scootaloo, wait!" Apple Bloom shouted to her as they chase after her.

As Sunset and Rainbow got up with the girls quickly getting to their side to check them, Sunset hissed a bit in pain holding a hand over her right arm as blood trails down it. "Sunset!" All the girls shouted.

"Just like I thought, blood suits your color well, traitor." They turn toward the voice.

While the girls get surprised by another kaiju, Sunset gets shocked by seeing Gilda in her kaiju form again but it had changed. Arms Dopant still had the sword but it had now taken a dino-like appearance with the armor having taken a skeletal look, shiny crimson skin, obsidian claws stabbing out from its boots, the skull helmet had changed into a crimson dimetrodon crystal skull, monstrous looking skulls on the shoulder with a crystal spine fin saw blade coming out through the foreheads.

"G-Gilda? What happened? What'd you do to yourself?" Sunset tried asking with a worried look.

The girls go wide eyed turning to look at Sunset before looking back to the Dopant. "GILDA?!"

Arms chuckles. "Long time no see, Dash. It's been so long since the last time I saw you, I couldn't help but cut my way into the group." The Dopant changes its left arm into a gun and then takes aim at them. "Now, who should I go for next?"

"Rainbow!" The girls went cold having heard Scootaloo's voice as Arms turned to see her and the others running up behind it. She stops as the Dopant points the gun at her.

"What luck. A volunteer."

"Scootaloo, Run!" Rainbow screamed out to her.

Arms fired before Scootaloo could react or do anything. As the bullets got closer with the girls screaming out her, Spike runs in front of her while putting on a silver ring on his right hand's middle finger and then places that same hand over his belt. (DEFEND, PLEASE!) He holds out his right hand as a red magical circle appears and protects them from the attack.

While everyone has a mixture of shock and surprised looks, Spike lets out a sigh of relief. "Did you really have to go running off on your own and almost getting yourself killed?" He asked Scootaloo in a scolding manner. "I mean, I'm sure there are better ways to give me and your friends a heart attack."

Faust chuckles. "Interesting addition. Though how fast can he react." He snaps his finger at the end.

"Spike? What'd you-" Apple Bloom is cut off as a loud screech is heard and the Undead hops above them.

Spike was about use spell again, but Locust moved closer instead of attacking as it moved around the spell and hopped towards him. 'Shit!' Spike thought to himself as he braced for the next hit. (Crushing! Slam!) Jurassic's belt is heard by everyone after he and Zero-One come smashing through the wall on their bikes. A burning tail follows the motion of Jurassic sliding to a stop as it hit Locust on its side and sent it flying into a store on the second floor.

The Riders run over to the CMC and Spike. "Are all of you okay?" Zero-One asked looking the girls over for any injuries. The girls nod their heads answering him. "Good."

"Thanks for the save, bro." Spike says to Jurassic making him sigh slapping a hand to his helmet, while the CMC and girls look back and forth to between the two with shocked looks. "My life flashed before my eyes there for a second. Hm? Where's Discord at? Is he lazing around somewhere?" Spike asks looking around but then gets the back of his head it by Jurassic. "Ow! Do you not know how much that hurts in that form."

"Then how about not exposing a connection between us when I'm fighting as a Rider." Jurassic said summoning out the Exacore and holding it over the belt. (Tyranno Sword!)

"What? Every citizen is either frozen or in hiding, so there's no one to listen in." Spike points out. Jurassic counters motioning towards the CMC. "Well...yeah but they saw me use magic. So, I thought it'd wouldn't hurt if they knew one more secret."

Jurassic looks down shaking his head slowly. "We need to get better at keeping this secret." He mumbles to himself.

"I take it you brothers have some catching up to do." Zero-One said walking to Jurassic's right side as a bit of the Riotoozes began gathering ahead of them. "Though you'll have to save that for later."

"Spike, you stay with the girls and-Hey Spike!" Jurassic yelled the last part as Spike walks past him while switching the ring with one that has a hand shape on it.

"And let the training I was put through go to waste? Not a chance." Spike said placing his right hand over his belt. (Driver on, Please!) His belt changes into a silver belt with the same hand shape as the ring at the front with his left hand's ring changing into a silver ring with the red gem being bigger.

While the girls had a mixture of different looks, Jurassic and Zero-One both have surprised faces under their helmets. "Thats-"

(Shabadoobi, Touch Henshin!) The belt start to repeatedly say along with a jingle after Spike used the sides of the belt to flip the hand to the left side. He then holds up his left hand's ring and flips a visor over it to make the face of a mask. "Henshin!" (FLAME, PLEASE! HI-HI, HI-HI-HI!) Was announced from the belt as Spike held out his left hand to the side for a red magical circle to appear with flame around the edge and moved passing him through it.

With the next second, Spike had transformed into a Rider with the armor mostly being black with silver outlining the edges of the suit. The suit had ruby gem look going around the wrists and ankles with silver outlining the edges, the chest has three square-ish ruby gems on both sides of the chest with a long round one going down the middle, a dragon image on the round silver shoulder guards, two piece robe with the outer part being black and the inside being red, a silver chain going in a loop on the left side of the belt with other similar rings attached to them, and the helmet matching the ring with two silver square shapes on both sides of the helmet to act as the eyes of the visor with a small yellow square gem on the forehead with silver outlining it to also make a square-ish "V" shape. Spike had completed his transformation into...

"Kamen Rider Wizard." Zero-One said as he and Jurassic walked to Wizard's right side. "We're really going to have a lot to talk about later. But for now, as the original Wizard would say." He said cracking his knuckles as they looked him over to Faust, the Dopant and the Riotoozes in front of them. "It's showtime." The Riotoozes charge at them after he said that.

The Riders follow suit with Zero-One jumping up to the second floor landing an elbow on the chest of one and follows it up with using the same arm to punch the Riotooze next to that one. He pulls out the liger progrise key while turning around to kick the faces of two Riotoozes coming up behind him. (Claw! Authorize!) The white transparent mechanical liger appears having smashed its way through a clothing store Zero-One was standing next to and began to attack the grunts with pounces and claw strikes.

(Progrise! Force! Strength! Speed! Striking Liger! Fierce claws that break the enemy with powerful strikes!) With the liger turning into armor on him, Zero-One had changed into his liger form as he started taking down grunts left and right with claw and palm strikes.

While on the first floor, Jurassic leaves Wizard to fight the grunts as he slashes his way through the Riotoozes in front of him to reach Sunset and the others. Arms becomes angered seeing this, turns hitting the girls to the side to grab Sunset by the throut making her gasp for air. "You still need to pay for what you did."

"Let her go, Gilda! Ugh." Rainbow had shouted at the Dopant as she quickly got up to tackle it trying to help Sunset but is hit back to the floor.

"Stay out of this, Dash. I'll get to you eventually." Arms said before running off dragging Sunset along with it.

"Kyah!" Fluttershy screamed after she and the others helped Rainbow up and were about to chase after it but get surrounded by Riotoozes.

Wizard takes notice of this while dodging some grunts. He quickly takes off his right hand's ring, switches it with one of the rings on the chain, and flips the hand back to the right side of the belt after putting the new ring on. (Lupachi Magic Touch Go! Lupa- Teleport, Please!) Wizard's belt said as he held out his right hand towards the girls, sending swirling red magic at them. as the grunts jump at them, they glow for a second from the magic reaching them, then they disappear making the Riotoozes slam into each other and reappear next to the CMC falling on top of each other.

(Tyranno Crushing Fang!!) The Riotoozes heard as they stood back up only to get hit by a burning slash as Jurassic ran by them. "Wizard, I'm leaving the rest to you and Zero-One. I'm going after the kaiju." Jurassic had stopped to say while changing the Exacore to gun mode and then continues running following the direction of the Dopant.

"You can count on us, big bro." Wizard yelled out as he kick two grunts through the window of a store. He switches rings again and flips the belt's hand twice. (Lupachi Magic- Connect, Please!) A magical circle appears next to him, he sticks his hand in and pulls out a silver gun with a closed hand resembling the hand on the belt over the handle and a clear crystal at the barrel of the gun. This is Wizard's main weapon the WizarSwordGun.

Wizard twirls around as he shoots rapid shots at the grunts in front of him with silver bullets and towards the girls a few feet behind him. The girls get startled by this for a second till the bullet curve around them to hit Riotoozes that were sneaking up behind them.

"NICE SHOT, WIZARD!!" Pinkie shouted out to him, to which Wizard bows for a second before continuing to fight.

"Now, that's a surprise you can expect from Riders." Faust said having appeared next to the girls, startling them as they turn to face him. "Now, let me show you that treat I promised the girls." He then makes a clear crystal orb appear in his hand.

“That kinda looks like a core.” Applejack points out as Faust holds out a progrise key, core medal and fullbottle which are all lion type of items.

“Core phase begin.” Faust announced holding the orb and items next to each other.

The orb began to glow which in turn made the items turn into particles that get absorbed into the orb and creates a lion image on it. It then flew out of his hand to the center of the mall where it started to pull anything near it into it.

“Shit.” Zero-One digs his fingers into a pillar on the second floor to keep from being pulled towards the core. (Extend, Please!) A new ring he had switched to let him stretch his right arm out to wrap around a pillar. The girls were safe at their distance from the core as they and Faust watched.

After a bit of Riotoozes, pieces of the floor and random objects wrap around it like a cocoon, the pulling stopped letting the Riders relax but then look towards the cocoon. The cocoon began to shake and crack before breaking into pieces to reveal a huge transparent dark yellow lion with a violet crystal mane. This lion looked like that Zero-one summoned to change forms but was different from having some objects like iron bars and bits of concrete sticking out of it. The mall shakes as it lets out a loud ferocious roar.

"He doesn't seem like a friendly, fluffy, cuddly lion from the zoo." Pinkie behind Rarity with Fluttershy nodding in agreement behind Rainbow.

"What is that thing?" Rarity asked Faust as they all turn to him.

Faust chuckles. "Even I don't know. It still has no name from still being in the experimental phase. A nameless creature unsure of its purpose. Hm...nameless. That doesn't sound half bad." He surprises the girls as he easily jumps up to the 2nd floor's railing looking to the lion. "You shall be Nameless Leo! Explore and test yourself as you look for your purpose!" Faust shouted out to Leo.

(Striking! Kilo! Impact!) Leo looks up seeing Zero-One taking out the grunts around him with a claw slash in a circular motion. The Nameless roars running towards him as it began to glow. The second Zero-One turned to look down at it, Leo unleashes a powerful bright light that blinds him and then gets tackled going through a wall along with it as it had jumped up to the second floor.

"Ouch. That seemed like it hurt." Wizard said to himself as he continued shooting the grunts.

Outside the Mall

Shining drives up to the mall with a couple other officers already waiting there at the front entrance. As he parked along with them and got out of his car, he could hear all the sounds coming from inside the building.

"What the hell is going on in there?" Shining asked as he stood next to a female officer.

Before the officer could answer, a loud crash sound is heard from across the parking lot. They look towards the source of the sound to see the Nameless as it swung Zero-One around by his left arm it was biting down on. Zero-One hits it with a couple of claw strikes across its face as it slammed him around and then tossed him towards the officers.

"Get down!" Shining shouted as he and the other officers ducked down a second before Zero-One flew over them and crashed slamming into Shining's car, crushing the front of the car. "Of course, the damn fucking car." Shining said to himself as he got up and ran over to point his gun at Zero-One. "What the hell is going on here, Rider? Do you have something to do with this?"

"If you have time to question me, then you should run." Shining gets confused for a second till the ground begins to shake. He looks back to see the Nameless charging towards them.

(Rising Hopper!) Shining and the officers run out of Leo's path while Zero-One changed back to hopper form to jump over the Nameless as it completely crushes the rest of the car. He land on top a light pole and summons the Progrise Dagger and Gunner while waiting for Leo's next move. Leo turns around to face Zero-One, then roars as shards come off its mane and fly all around.

"If it's using the abilities of the bottle, key and medal then that means..." Zero-One begins shooting the shards knowing what'll happen next. The shards that weren't shot and managed to come into contact with objects exploded like dynamite. "This thing isn't going to go down without a fight." He said as he continued to shoot and avoid the shards.

Inside the Mall

Having shot through grunts, Jurassic reaches the stairwell with Riotoozes leading all the way to the up to the rooftops door, that's been broken off, blocking him off. "Out of my way. I have a friend to save." (Tyranno Sword!) Switching the Exacore to sword mode, Jurassic proceeds to fight his way up the stairs as he slashed through most of the grunts, while the rest splatter as they're punched or kicked into the wall or off the railing.

A saw blade comes flying at him as soon as he gets to the roof and manages to avoid it seconds as it passes by an inch of his helmet. "I think that's far enough, Jurassic." Jurassic looks ahead past many Riotoozes to see Arms standing next to the edge with a Riotooze holding onto Sunset with a hand over her mouth next to it. "You must really consider this bitch a friend if you were willing to come for her knowing what was coming."

"Knowing what was coming?"

"This dumbass." Arms holds its left arm out as it changes into a buzzsaw, holding it close to Sunset's neck. "Put down your sword and undo your transformation. Or the floor is going to be painted in a new color."

Sunset shoves against the Riotooze making it moves its hand. "Don't do it, Jur- Ugh!" Gasping for air, she falls to her knees but is held up by the grunt after the Dopant had punched her gut.

"Shut your damn mouth. Now, get on with it and undo your transformation." Arms demands turn to Jurassic and sees him only standing still. "Well, what are you waiting for? Do it now!" The Dopant shouts only to see the unexpected as Jurassic take a stance. Jurassic moves forward bit by bit making the Riotoozes begin to attack him as he fights back slashing the first few grunts that came running up to him, then blocks the next couple hits with his sword. (Flaming! Stomp!) He strikes down the grunts attacking him first before stomping his foot down to send a flaming wave to his left hitting to get the ones coming up on his left side in one go. "What are you doing? Don't you care what happens to this bitch!?"

"I've yet to keep my oath to you." Jurassic says confusing the Dopant as he continues fighting. "From how you've been avoiding the others lately, I could tell could tell something was wrong. Even at school, you seem to be holding something in. I kept thinking about till I figured it out. It's because light hasn't fully been brought back to your core. Am I right?" (Slam!) Jurassic deflects the blasts with his red aura tail before hitting them with it. Sunset looks away when he looks towards her for a second. "I thought so. Then my oath to you hasn't been fulfilled. So until I do, you can always can always count on me to have your back. This is my oath to you."

Watching Jurassic fight, Arms sees images of itself in human form doing the same fighting a group of people on her own while Molten and Sunset watched. Seeing these images made the Dopant glowed angerly. "Fine! Then her blood will be on your hands."

Hearing this, Jurassic quickly hits the Riotoozes back to hold the sword against the belt. (B-B-Blaze!) 'Hopefully the little bit of practice was enough to pull this off' (Tyranno Crushing Fang!) He spins around once destroying the grunts around him before sending the burning red aura slash towards the Dopant.

The slash went straight at first going through some Riotoozes along the way but started to move to the Dopant's right as it got closer and then curves. As Arms was about to thrust the buzzsaw into Sunset's neck, the slash hits the arm making it hit the grunt holding Sunset instead while hissing in pain. "Damn Rider! Now I'm-What?!"

Arms attention, along with Sunset's, is drawn by a blue light coming from down below in the ground. Before anything could be asked, something comes shooting out of the ground rolling, then goes straight up the wall towards the Dopant who tries to shoot at this new object. It swerves avoiding the shots as it kept going. The object jumps onto Arms as it reached the roof, rolls moving all around its body making sparks fly off it, it then jumps off after the Dopant falls back and lands on Sunset's shoulder.

On her shoulder is a small dinosaur like Blaze but it's a blue Spinosaurus. "Wow. Um...Hi. Thanks for the help there." Sunset said to the dino as she pets its head with it roaring happily.

Jurassic seeing this, pulls out one of the two black crystals as it glowed turning into a clear blue color with the fang having changed to a Spinosaurus head on one side and the kanji writing for 'Clear Mind' on the other.

"Let's see what this can do." Jurassic said as he takes out the Tyranno core. (Alpha Spino! Infusion!) The red DNA strap side turned blue as a bass tone played along with an obsidian wall with a Spinosaurus fossil coming up behind him. "Core shift." Jurassic having taken a stance and then inserts the core. (Core Splash! Dive! Whirl! Wave! Alpha Spino!) The belt was saying as the obsidian broke into pieces completely engulf and circle Jurassic with a red glow coming from the cracks changing to blue before bursting off with water.

Now having an Egyptian look take the place of the knight armor, the red on his armor had changed to blue along with the silver rex skeleton having been replaced with a Spinosaurus. The transformation finished with a spino skull biting down on the helmet changing the red zig zag line to blue with the silver mouth guard reforming to have a hieroglyphic mold take its place having the image for protection on it with watery wave around it.

As Arms gets up to see Jurassic's new form, he holds the Exacore to the belt. (Spino Khopesh!) Obsidian covers the sword's blade, then breaks to reveal an obsidian black curved sword with a silver spine going up the back and the blade being a clear blue. "There's no reason to hold back now." He said while getting into a stance and running at the grunts.

Middle of the Mall

Wizard's battle with the Riotoozes continued as he swept kicked the grunts, knocking them over and then shoots ones trying to come up behind him. Other grunts come at him swinging, which Wizard rolls to his left avoiding them while pushing himself up onto a bench.

"Come on fellas, you've got to try better than that." Wizard says relaxing on the bench while shooting them. He slides to his right side of the bench avoiding a Roitooze that tried grabbing him from over behind. "Nice try." While raising himself with an arm on the bench, Wizard swings a kick over the bench to hit the grunt across the face.

Using the momentum of the kick to spin himself to the left side of the bench, Wizard held his leg outward to kick Riotoozes that came running up to him and then avoids blasts fired at him by flipping over the bench, he changes the position his weapon's handle making a blade flip out turning it into its sword mode. He brought his feet down on top of a grunt's head making it slam on to the floor, which he then slashes Riotoozes next to him.

Riotoozes standing across the hall fired blasts at Wizard while he had his back turned fighting, but they all miss their shots after Wizard takes notice of them from the first blast having only been inches from hitting him. While avoiding the blasts, he pushes the thumb of the sword up to open the hand that stars a jingle. (Come on a Slash, Shake Hands! Co- Extend, Please!) The sword announced having held his right hand over it with a magic circle then appearing and moves to the center of the blade. The upper part of the sword's blade stretches out and moves around like a whip as Wizard swings slashing the grunts firing at him, then swirls around to destroy all the ones around him.

"Go, Wizard!/Show them varmints who's the boss!/Send them packing, Wizard!" The CMC yelled cheering.

"The kid's moves are pretty good." Rainbow said as she continued to watch.

Applejack nods agreeing. "No doubt. I can see how he and Drago are brothers now."

"His appearance also has a magnific style to it. Do you think he'll let me take a closer look at his suit and those rings?" Rarity asks keeping her eyes on his rings.

"I could really make parties more super-duper fun and amazing with his help." Pinkie says thinking out loud but then goes wide eyed. "Wizard, freezy cricket incoming!"

Even with hearing Pinkie's yell, Wizard turns a second late as Locust comes swinging on a thred of web and kicks him up to the second floor, dropping his weapon. Wizards rolls standing back up as the Undead tried stomping on top of him but then furiously swings its claws, hitting Wizard multiple times across the chest making sparks fly with each hit. He rolls out of its next swing but gets kicked, launching him to the other side of the walkway. As he stands back up, Wizard get hit by web that sticks him to the wall before freezing itself.

"Wizard!" The CMC shouted as the Undead jumped over to Wizard and holds up its hand.

Before it could swing, Wizard kicks its leg making it fall towards him as he headbutts it. "You had to make me use the ring I hate." He holds his breath saying this as he quickly slips one of his rings on it while its still recovering and puts its hand against his belt after activating it. (Smell, Please!) A horrible oder covers Locust, after the spell circle passes through it, that makes it step back waving its arm trying to get rid of the smell. While distracted, Wizard quickly switches rings. (Small, Please!) The Undead begins looking around after it sees him shrink out of the web. "Behind you." Wizard surprises Locust unshrinking behind it as it stood next to a pillar. (Big, Please!) A spell circle appears between them as it turned to face him. Wizard thrusts his hand into the circle with it coming out in a huge size that drags the Undead through pillars in his palm and then lets it drop to the 1st floor after the fourth pillar.

Wizard jumps down a few feet from Locust. "Now for the final move." Wizard anounces switching rings again and activating the belt flipping the hand twice. (Lupachi Magic Touch Go! Lupachi magic- Choine! Kick Strike! Saiko!) Wizard pushes his robe to the side to show his right leg as he gets into a stance with the spell circle appearing under him to channel flames to his leg.

As Locust got up, Wizard leaps forward into a frontward flip, backflips into the air, and then spins himself mid-air for his flaming foot to point towards the Undead as a kick. Going through Locust and landing as he spun forward once, Wizard holds up his hand with the Undead with the spell circle behind him. "That concludes the show!" Locust explodes with him saying that.

Wizard sighs as he walks towards the girls, who are cheering but stops looking to his left as the space next to him seems to warp. "What?" With the warp becoming clear, he's surprised seeing what looks like a blue dragon Rider with a flame design on the other side. Before anything could be said, a light comes out both him and the other Rider that go to the other before the warp disappears with Wizard looking around confused to see no trace of it. "What was that?" He asked himself as he looks at a big clear purple gem that is now in his hands.

Outside the Mall

A car flies into the wall of the mall as Zero-One keeps moving around to avoid the Nameless as it either tries to blind him with a bright flash of light which is followed up with a pounce or launching the dynamite shards around. (Access Charge!) The Progrise Gunner announced being held against the belt, he aims it towards the Nameless for a second but then aims it at the ground. (Beta Blast!) Smoke covers him as the charged shot hit the ground. Leo runs to the spot to find the Rider gone with a hole leading into the sewers in his place.

Zero-One peeks from behind a damaged car, seeing the Nameless look into the hole. "All this running around is going to get me nowhere. At this rate, it'll tire me out before I can end this fight." He quietly says to himself as he reels his head back. "But what can I do?" He thinks for a second before pulling out Gatling Hedgehog. "This could work-"

The car is sent flying that second by Leo hitting to the side surprising Zero-One, who is about move but is pinned to the floor by the Nameless's paw. Zero-One tries to squirm free for a second but stops to put his strength into holding the paw back as Leo starts putting pressure on him. "D-Damn it."

Shining and the other officers watch at a safe distance as the Rider struggles to keep the paw up a bit.

"Shouldn't we help the Rider?" A male officer asked Shining.

A female officer nods agreeing. "He's right. We should back him up. The Rider has a better chance at taking out that thing than us."

"We will. We just have to wait for the cheif and the others to get here first." Shining answers. "They should almost be here. Hopefully he can last till-."

"What's it doing now?" Another female officer yelled getting everyones attention to see the Nameless glow faintly as the light traveled to build up in its mouth.

Slashing a Riotooze in half on the roof, Jurassic takes notice of the light and looks down to see the situation. "Looks like Zea's upgrade gets a test drive." He pulls out his phone while putting it on the keypad setting. He puts in '01King' and then holds it out pushing the trigger button. (Moblize Blaze!) "Your up, Blaze!"

"What is that?" Shining says as he and the officers see something coming from up ahead to Leo's left side.

In the distance, Blaze comes running into the area roaring with Jurassic's motorcycle driving itself out of the mall. He jumps glowing for a second along with the bike as he grows bigger and breaks into five pieces. The bike's wheels fly off, along with the bottom of it to unfold towards the back. Blaze's body extends a bit for the bike to attach on from the back, with the legs connecting under the wheels before also attaching to the sides, and the tail connect to the back of the bike while his head attaches to the front. Blaze's transformation is complete with him now looking like an adult rex. This is Blaze-King Mode.

Blaze comes running in tackling the Nameless off Zero-One making it cancel its charge as the two roll to the side. Zero-One sits up taking a moment to catch his breath while he watches as Blaze gets hit by its claws twice but bites on to its paws as it swung it at him again, then Blaze swings Leo over himself to slam it into the ground and repeats this two more times before throwing it to the side.

Flames begin gathering into Blaze's mouth as he sees Leo get up charging its attack again. The two unleash their attacks towards each other, with one being an orb of light and the other a stream of fire. The attacks collide pushing one another till they create an explosion. Blaze looks around himself as smoke covered the area trying to spot the Nameless. Blaze reacts quick at jumping back as Leo tries pouncing him from the side and spins around slamming his tail into its side sending it flying into the malls wall.

Shining and the officers were left speechless at what they're watching. They never once thought they'd be watching a battle between a huge lion and a t-rex. They continue watching as Blaze walks up to the motionless Leo.

Blaze gets closer till the Nameless roars at him shining a light that blinds him and is blasted smashing into a parking structure. While Blaze recovers, Leo launches shards into the structure that explode all around him causing part of the structure to collapse on top of him. (Gatling Hedgehog!) Needles come down hitting the Nameless as it walked up to the structure and looks to get hit by Zero-One in his hedgehog form rolled up. Leo falls to the ground from the hit as Zero-One comes to a stop and unrolls next a pile of rubble, that Blaze comes bursting out of roaring.

"Zero-One!" Orbital shouts out to him standing next to and startling Shining and the officers. They all look to him seeing him wearing a zebra mask as he holds out showing the Attache Shotgun in case mode. "Special delivery." Zero-One catches the case after Orbital tossed it to him and unfolds it open. (Attache Shotgun!)

"Lets bring this to an end, Blaze." Blaze roars agreeing with Zero-One. He pulls out his phone bringing up the keypad setting, types in '01King-Rider21' and presses enter with Zero-One's standby playing in a loop from the phone. (Zero-One Linkage!) Blaze roars glowing as Zero-One's symbol appears on the screen of Jurassic's bike. He then pushes the trigger button. (Tyranno Impact!) It announced in his belt's voice.

Leo fires a charged shot at them which Blaze hits to the side with his tail before he starts moving and jumping around like Zero-One's hopper form. The Nameless launches shards all around itself causing explosions that Blaze moves through easily as he then launches it into the sky with his tail and starts hitting it around like a pinball.

(Strong!) While this is happening, Zero-One pulls out activating the hercules key. (Progrisekey confirmed. Ready to utilize. Hercules Beetle's ability. Chargerise! Full Charge!)

Blaze's feet glowed yellow along with being covered in fire as he appears over Leo while the two are high up in the air and hits it down towards the ground. Looking up at the Nameless, Zero-One runs pumping the gun once as he then slips on the ground coming to a stop under, pointing the gun towards it pulling the trigger. (Amazing Kaban Dynamic!) Zero-One is pressed a bit into the ground as a shot shaped like the head of a hercules beetle's, that hits its mark pushing the Nameless a bit up before going through it. Leo roars before exploding with Blaze lands next to Zero-One making a louder roar.

"Ow." Zero-One said in a sarcastic tone as the three Rider items fall hitting his helmet.

Shining lets out a breath of relief with the officers shouting to each other happily. Remembering about Orbital, Shining looks but finds him gone. "Who was that?"

The Roof

Sunset watches silently, from the side with the new dino, as Jurassic effortlessly takes down Riotoozes left and right like a swordsman. (Dive!) Jurassic is covered in layer of water as he jumps splashing straight into the ground as if it was water.

The grunts look around for him but get surprised as he comes jumping out of the ground slashing them. He continued this a couple times before sliding out of the ground sweep kicking a couple grunts knocking them to the ground and then slashed them all in one go as he used his legs to push himself up in a circular motion.

(Whirl! Edge!) After using the belt's slot twice and hammer three times, Jurassic stabbed the ground making water appear before swinging forward towards the last of grunts running at him in a group sending and trapping them in a whirlpool. He jumps into the whirlpool as blue round aura blade formed on the side of his legs and wrists that lets him hit them with many slashes moving while in a spinning motion.

Coming out of the whirlpool, he avoids a blast form his left and turns to see Arms running towards him. "Damn you, Jurassic!" The Dopant shouted angrily pulling the great sword off its back. Jurassic hits its first strike to the side, then jumps back avoiding as it swung its sword behind it. "Why? Why are you going so far protecting that bitch?" Arms yells asking as it continued swinging its sword with Jurassic either hitting it to the side or blocking it as he took steps back. "I've worked too hard to get to this point. I'm not going to let some looser playing hero get in they way of getting revenge. What gives you the right to come between me and what I deserve? Ah...What? Ugh!" The Dopant had stopped from Jurassic ducking under its next swing while slashing it across its waist and then twice across the chest as it turned around to face him. Arms looks at its chest armor seeing a part having been sliced through before looking back to Jurassic who just stands still looking across to it.

"Nothing. I have no say in if your revenge is right or not. I know nothing of the past involving you and her. But I still can't you." Jurassic shouted the last part as he charges forward to go on the offensive swinging his sword at Arms, forcing it to go on defense using its sword to block the strikes. "You aren't the only one who's worked hard. Sunset did and is still working hard to make up for what she's done. Working with the others, she broke free from Molten's control. She stayed to redeem herself instead of leaving back home. She tries bit by bit to make amends with the other students."

Arms changes its left arm into a gun and quickly aimed it at Sunset before shooting with the shots going past Jurassic. (Wave!) Activating his belt, Jurassic swings his sword behind himself, without taking his eyes off the Dopant, sending a wave of water that curves blocking the shot from hitting Sunset. Arms begin getting hit more times as its sword keeps being held down a bit as Jurassic's sword created a wave with each strike.

(Tidal!) Arms is pushed back by a blue aura that Jurassic created from his last hit. "RRAAAHHH!!!" The Dopant screams out full of anger as it changes its left arm into a saw blade charging at Jurassic. He stares at it for a second before holding the Exacore to his belt. (S-S-Splash!) The sword repeatedly says with a bass guitar sound playing as water and a blue aura cover it. (Spino Dividing Fang!) He takes a step forward unleashing a blue water version of the slash but seem to be thinner with the edge seeming like a raging rapid stream of water as soon as Arms was close enough, which cleanly slices through the sword and saw. The Dopant falls flying back a bit with sparks flying from the attack having hit its chest as well.

"I won't stand for anyone holding her past against her when she's trying to make a fresh start." He told the Dopant as it layed on the floor holding its left wrist from felling pain. "I believe those who actually want a chance to make up for their mistakes and to better themselves should be given a chance." He looks to Sunset, who has a tear going down her cheek. "That's why I'm willing to fight for them. And always will."

Jurassic stabs his sword into the ground as he looks back to Arms. "I'll punish those who want to hurt dragging them back into darkness." He then lifts the slot of the belt up and then pushes the hammer making the standby jingle play. "I'm ending the misuse of that core." He picks his sword up and begins twirling it around as water shoots out around him with it following the movement of his sword.

He stops holding his arms crossed and pushes the belt's slot down as he spreads them apart. (Tidal Dividing Edge!) A row of tidal wave like slashes rush at Arms as it stood up with the slashes going through the Dopant cleanly as each hit made a water splash. Arms stays standing for a second till exploding.

Catching the core before holding the sword to the side, Jurassic holds his left hand in claw motion over and ran it across his chest while holding the core. "Extinction." The explosion clears to show Gilda with her eyes darkened with the Arms memory breaking next to her.

Jurassic sees and walks over to Gilda as she stands with a look of anger in her eyes towards him. "It's too soon for this to be game over for her." Faust's voice is heard as Jurassic jumps back while deflect shot with his sword. He looks to Gilda again to find Faust standing next to her with a smile towards him. "The game will have to continue at some other point. Till we meet again Kamen Rider. Ciao." They disappeared in a crimsion mist that appeared engulfing them.

"Gilda!" Sunset shouted as she ran over but stops as the mist quickly faded away leaving no trace of the two.

"Who is- No. What was that thing?" Jurassic said to himself looking around. Almost afraid to find out the answer to the question.

A Few Minutes Later

Everyone had regrouped back inside the mall as the stood in the middle of the building with the girls looking over and hugging Sunset.

"We're so glad you're alright, Darling." Rarity said as they ended the hug.

"I have this little guy to thank for that." Sunset says smiling picking up the Spinosaurus. The dino lets out a roar before jumping into Fluttershy's arms who happily holds petting it.

Applejack chuckles smiling. "Looks like even dino critters take an easy likin' to yah, Flutters."

"Do you mind if I ask what your name is?" Fluttershy asks putting it down.

The Spinosaurus rolls forward and jumps towards a wall next to them as it cuts writing 'Razor'. "Waoh! He's really sharp little guy." Rainbow said amazed.

"Another friend to add to the party planning team!" Pinkie screamed out full of joy.

"The what?" Zero-One looks to Applejack sounding confused.

She shakes her head. "Don't ask. Though we should really get a move on before officers come bargin in."

"But sis, we can't just leave all these folk frozen." Apple Bloom spoke up.

"Yeah! We have to do something." Scootaloo shouted.

"But...what can we do?" Sweetie Belle asked as they all begin thinking.

Wizard sighs moving towards the center. "Leave everything to me." Everyone become confused and curious hearing this as the puts on a ring with a pink gem having an image of two circling dragon heads. Wizard flips the hand twice before putting his hand on his belt. (Restore, Please!)

Outside the Mall

Cheif Dusk had arrived seeing the explosion from the Dopant's defeat. After being informed of what has happened, he had order for the building to be surrounded as they prepare to storm it to arrest the Riders.

"Is everything set before we go in?" Dusk asks checking with Shining.

Before he could answer, they all get surprised as the ground begins to glow. A huge magical circle could be seen from the sky appearing under the whole area of the mall. The light of the circle becomes brighter till everyone is blinded by a flash that lasts for a second. They open their eyes with some of them going speechless while others being at a loss for words seeing the damage done to the place all gone as the place looked normal.

Dusk shakes himself out of his stupor. "Move in now!" He shouted bringing everyone back to reality as they follow Dusk in storming the mall.

They enter the building from all sides only to find the place completely undamaged with everyone there either hugging each other or looking around with a confused looks and no Riders anywhere in sight.

"Where'd they go?" Shining asked as he and the other officers either looked around or checked on the civiliens.

The Dragons Cavern

Rumble was in the middle of the library next to the counter reading an engineering book right before getting startled by a sudden noise. He looks behind himself to see Wizard standing behind the counter along with everyone else. He had used the teleport ring to bring them back to the library.

He watches in silence as Wizard slides over the counter to walk over and lay on a couch that's to his right. A second after laying down, a magical circle passes through him as he fell asleep, undoing his transformation as his suit had change into bits of red gems that disappeared.

"I'm guessing you guys have an interesting story to tell." Rumble said looking back to the other two Riders undoing their transformations with a smile.

Drago lets out an exhausted sigh. "Unless the girls want to explain it to you, we'll explain the whole thing later. For now, I think we need a breather." Except for Pinkie, everyone nods agreeing.

"I'll go make us something to snack on. Onward party planning team!" Pinkie shouts as she raced to the kitchen with Blaze and Razor following behind her.

The CMC take a seat across from Spike as they looked at him full of worry. "Is he gonna be alright?" Apple Bloom asked turning to Drago.

He gives her a reasuring smile. "He'll be fine. I think that restore spell took a huge amount of magic out of him. He just needs some rest and he'll be back on his feet in no time." Saying this helps the girls relax smiling.

The Middle of the Everwoods

Faust is leening against a tree next to a cave. He looks to the inside of the cave with a smile where Gilda is left resting on the ground with a pillow and blanket. Hearing a branch break, he turns looking to the forest seeing Reaper come walking up to him.

"How'd the experiment go?" He asked Faust, who chuckles handing him a glowing yellow core.

"Seems to have turned out well. Your core seems to have kept the memory of Leo in it." He walks past and stands behind Reaper. "Soon you'll be able to recreate your own alpha cores. But I'm sure you have something else in mind. The only question is..." He turns looking to Reaper with his eyes glowing. "What do you have in mind?"

The Dragons Cavern

An hour had past since they got back. After resting for a bit, they all explained to Rumble what had happened while enjoying the snacks and drinks the party planning team had bought out for everyone. The group had stuck around for a while but left after talking and having fun for a while.

Spike was in his now new room setling in till he heard a knock at his down. "It's open." Drago walks into the room. "Hey, bro. What;s up. Did you need something?" He asked him as he continued setting his things in.

"What were you doing here and at the mall? And don't lie to me like you did with the girls." He asked leening against the door.

Spike sighs sitting down on his bed. "I just couldn't stand being there anymore. Without you and Discord there, it just felt so empty and lonely staying there with the family. So after i got my powers and got used to using them, I left wanting to come here."

Drago makes an upset look. "You ran away? Do you know how worried everyone probably is back at home?"

"I know. Don't worry. I did leave mom and dad a note. I wouldn't want them to worry about me." Drago calms down hearing this. "As for the mall, I ended up there after I saved your friend Sunset and followed her here to make sure nothing happened to her." He makes an annoyed look. "Though it was a bit annoying she thought I was the other Spike you told me about. Though, why did you guys never tell them I'm your brother in this world?"

"It slipped our minds. We had a lot going on around that time."

Spike nods. "Yeah. I guess that's understandable. So, I can't really blame Sunset for not knowing. Anyways, after that, I just decided to explore around, bumped into the CMC and decided to hangout with htem since we got along." He shrugs to Drago. "That's about it."

"Alright. Glad to hear your day was full of excitement. And it's good to have you around again, little brother." He had said walking over and ruffling up Spike's hair making him laugh. "With that said, I just need to ask you one last thing." He tells Spike, who motions for him to continue. "Did you find out what grandpa is hiding?"

To Be Continued

Author's Note

I want to explain the Progrise Dagger and Gunner this time. I had made these weapons the way they are to be just simple to use from how this Zero-One likes to try and be quick in his attacks and easy to hold when fighting enemies up close.

Both weapons can either use a finisher attack separate or connected together when held in front of the belt. 'Beta Blast' and 'Zeta Slash' are the finishers when used separate, while 'Cross Blast' and 'Unison Slash' are the finishers when together.

Chapter 6- Dragon Awakening

Outside Ponyville

It was another normal day in Ponyville as Fluttershy was enjoy her Tuesday tea party with her friends Discord and Twilight. Now and then Discord would make small harmless chaos that they have gotten used to, to get a laugh out of them. Like switching all their horns and wing around randomly, recreating events from made up stories, or pranking any pony who came or walked by the cottage, who mostly ended up being Rainbow Dash.

"We're so glad you could join us today, Twilight." Fluttershy happily said taking a sip of her tea.

"I'm really sorry about that." Twilight apologized as she picked up a cookie with her magic. "I did want to come sooner. But I've been really busy lately."

"Oh no. It's alright, Twilight. We're just happy you were able to come today." Fluttershy reassured her.

Discord nodded popping in a book and monocles. "It's also all so enjoyable to come up with many stories on why you had to miss out on our little get togethers. I've already written three whole volumes." Twilight frowns at him at first but then bursts into laughter along with him and Fluttershy.

"Although...that is...if you don't mind me asking...what were you busy doing?" Fluttershy asked nervously but also curious.

Twilight takes a sip from her tea. "Well, you see, Spike has been curious about the bottle that he got from one our human friends and been trying to get it to work again. So, we've been doing many experiments to see how it works and see if we could get it to react in some way, but we haven't had any luck."

"Oh. I'm sorry to hear that. Is that why Spike didn't come with you?" Fluttershy asks as she picks up a small sandwich.

Twilight nods. "Kind of. He wanted to keep trying. I'm sure he'll be able to eventually." She takes another sip before putting her tea down and blushes a bit. "Other than that, I've-"

"You've still been trying to look for my brother, am I right?" Discord said taking the monocles off. "I'm guessing you've looked through every newspaper article and history book for any signs of him but haven't had any luck." Twilight nods. "I'm even going to bet you tried asking Celestia and yet all she could tell you is that the history containing that knowledge has been lost for hundreds of years, right?" He had asked while looking around the cottage using the monocles.

Twilight eyed him skeptically. "Actually, yes. You even got the part about the princess's message right. Wait. Were you spying on me?" Discord gives her a devilish grin. "DISCORD!!"

"In my defense, you can't really call it spying if I bribed a small dragon into letting me in and keeping my visit a secret from you." He said looking through the monocle towards the ceiling of the house. Twilight was about to say something to him but a glove appeared putting a finger to her mussel. "You might want to save the lecture for later. We have guests."

Fluttershy and Twilight were about to question him but were interrupted when the sounds of crashing were heard outside, along with grunting as a couple branches were heard breaking, and then a thud that leads to Fluttershy's animals all rushing in and running around looking for a place to hide.

"Oh my. Please calm down everyone." Fluttershy says as she began to fly around after her animal friends.

"What was that?" Twilight asked as Fluttershy was trying to calm her animals down.

"Like I said, we have guests." Discord said smiling as he flew out the door.

"Wait! Discord! What do you mean by-" Twilight ran out after him but stops when she sees two familiar looking ponies piled on top of each other next a tree in front of the cottage. "Connor? Reiji? Is that you?"

Connor deadpan at herl. "Geez, I wonder how many other ponies look like us with the exact same marks?" He said sarcastically while trying to pry off branches off his horn.

"Don't we have doubles here in Equestria?" Reiji pointed out while wobbling around seeing stars.

Connor stops to slap a hoof to his face. "That's right. My bad. Sorry about the attitude, Twilight."

"It's okay. Though what are you two doing here?" Twilight asked while using magic to get the branches off his horn.

"We'd like to know the answer to that too." Connor said rubbing his horn with an annoyed look while Reiji shook his head recovering. "Having a horn is really annoying."

"Twilight, Twilight, Twilight!" Everyone turns looking to see Spike run up the road holding a glowing object. "I don't know if I did something wrong, but the dragon bottle started glowing all of a sudden. Do you thi-" Spike stops noticing the two. "Is that Connor and Reiji?"

Reiji gets up looking around. "Where's Emerald?"

"I'm right here." They looked up into the sky as the shadow of a dragon overshadows them, making everyone's jaws hang, except for Discord.

Landing in front of them is a full-grown purple scaled dragon with a short mouth and emerald, green spike fins, with the ones around the head acting like hair from how long they were going down one side of her head. Twilight and Fluttershy thought she was most beautiful dragon they had ever seen with how her scales shine like gems, that Fluttershy even forgot about her fear.

Except for Discord, everyone was surprised by one obvious thing, the resemblance she and Spike shared. They look back and forth between the two as Spike is at a loss for words while Emerald was having a hard time looking him in the eyes.

"H-Hi, Spike. It's good to see you again." Emerald says while trying to make a smile. Spike just stares at her for a few moments before turning and running back towards Ponyville. "Wait! Spike!" She becomes cover in fire that jumps up landing in front of Spike and disappears to reveal her standing on two legs now being the same height as Princess Luna. "Please wait, Spike. I can explain."

"Explain what?" Spike shouted upset. "Explain why we look alike? If so, are we related? Emerald, who are you exactly?"

She stays silent for a few seconds before taking a deep breath to ready herself. "I know what you might be thinking but I'm sorry. I'm not your mother. But...I am her sister, your aunt."

While Twilight and Fluttershy's jaws drop shocked by the news, Discord conjures himself up a lawn chair to relax on as he watched what he deemed a show with popcorn. The guys give him a disapproving look shaking their heads. They look to Spike wondering how he's taking the news, only to see him with an upset look.

Emerald saddens seeing Spike's expression but isn't surprised knowing why he's upset with her. She looks away from him as she remembers the cause of his anger. It had happened when she was helping Spike regain some of his aura during the events of the Fall Formal.

Flash Back

While Emerald was looking through drawers in the bathroom, Spike as a dog was sitting in the middle of her room facing the bed with his back turned to the door. It was a master bedroom with two big windows on the left side of the bed with the bathroom being to the right. A five drawered dresser was against the wall with the windows while the rest of the room has shelves going all around the room, along with a full length mirror.

Spike looks at the shelves see them all either having different objects, items and pictures lining them. Some said items look like regular thing you could find anywhere like some gems, books, boxes, and what look like toys. The rest of the shelves seemed to have things from different parts of Equestria. He walks over to one said items that was on the lower shelves. It was a medallion with an eye looking dark purple crystal and strange markings on it.

"I'd advise you not to touch that." Emerald called out from the bathroom as Spike reached his paw out towards it but reels it back after being startled. "I found that when I came across an ancient ruin, that seemed to had been Grogar's castle. It's called the Eye of Sins. From what I was able to find out, it was an item that Grogar used to take out what makes others have good in their hearts leaving only darkness that he could use as he pleased."

"Why would you keep something that dangerous sounding?" Spike asked as he backed away from the medallion.

"Trust me when I say, it's better off here than what it could be used for back in Equesria." She shudders rubbing her throat. "If you saw what I saw, you'd want this thing off in another world too. All the- Oh! I found it." Emerald said happily taking out a crystal ball.

Spike walked back to the middle as Emerald sat down with the ball placing it between them. "How are you going to help me with this?" He looked to her curious.

"Where I grew up, it was basic knowledge for us dragons to learn how to use and control our auras." Emerald explains while placing her hands on the ball. "We learn to use it mostly to strengthen our abilities such as our fire breathing, strength, speed, along with other things. What we're doing now is also another way to use aura." The ball begins to glow which she motions for him to place his paws on the ball.

Spike complies as he pays close attention. "By sending aura into gems, you could use them to store aura which could then either be left alone or leave a certain strengthening ability in it. These gems can be stored away in case you need a way to recover your or someone else's strength quickly. Though when you're helping someone restore their aura, it takes a long time to adjust the aura to match someone else's. But you can easily cut that time if you're related to the person or if the two's emotions are synced in some way."

"Wow. I never knew dragons could do something so amazing." Spike looks down feeling sad. "Nopony back in Equestria could help me learn more about dragons. And the dragons I've met only helped me see the bad side of being a dragon. At least that time helped me see who I am on the inside and those I'm proud to call my family."

Spike gets surprised feeling a soft hand gently touch his head. He looks up while not noticing his eye level rise, to see Emerald patting his head with tears filling her eyes. "Miss Emerald, are you okay?"

"I'm sorry. I'm alright." She says drying her eyes. "Seems our emotions synced judging from how part of your aura has been restored. And from the fact you aren't a dog anymore." She laughs from Spike jumping from the surprise and began looking himself over at the mirror .

"It still weirds me out a bit, but I think my human form looks pretty good." In his reflection, he sees Emerald walk up to him from behind.

He confuses her when she sees him begin to look down again. "What's the matter, Spike? If you're worried about how you look, then you have nothing to worry about. You're a handsome young man." He shakes his head. "Then what's wrong? I promise I'll help you any way I can."

"I was just wondering from how we look similar as humans that maybe..." Spike slowly turns to look her in the eyes. "Do you think it's possible that we're related?"

Emerald can only stare at him for a few seconds before looking away. "I'm sorry, Spike. I'm an only child and I've never been with any creature in,,,that way."

He sighs looking down. "I thought so. I guess I'll never know about my parents. Even if I could, they'd most likely be the same as-" Emerald holds up his chin.

"I'm sorry about what you've gone through and the dragons you've met. But just like the ponies, not all dragons are the same as the ones in the Dragon Lands. There are many different kinds out in the world. You just need to know how to find them." She gives him a reassuring smile. "I'm sure one day, you find the answers you're looking for. You'll just have to wait." Emerald lets go of his chin seeing him smile. "Now how about we go make the others some snacks?"

Spike smirks before pointing at himself. "Lucky for you, this number one assistant is great at making snacks and refreshments."

"Great. Then I'll lead you to one of the kitchens, number one assistant." She said as she leads him out the room and walks down the hall. 'I'm sorry, little one. But this is for the best.' Emerald thought to herself as her face filled with guilt while walking in front of him.

Flash Back Ends

"Did you know from the beginning?" Spike asked with an upset tone. Emerald only nods while looking away. "Why? Why'd you lie to me? You knew how much I wanted to find out anything about my family. So, why lie to me?" She stays silent. "Tell me!!"

Emerald sighs sadly. "I...I can't tell you the reason. All I can tell you is that what I did was for the best."

"The best? You thought abandoning me was the best choice? Who gave you the right to do that? Why would my parents allow that? Did...Did they not want me?" Spike's eyes began to tear up.

"Nononono! Of course, they wanted you." Emerald quickly said looking to him. "You were their most precious treasure. They would've searched the whole world, even go to depths of Tartarus just to find you."

"Then, where are they?"

"I...I wish I knew." Emerald answered sadly.

Spike shakes his head, then runs shoving past her with tears rushed down his cheeks.

"Spike, don't-" Twilight was about to chase after him but stops when Reiji holds his hoof out and shakes his head. She sighs turning to Emerald. "Just give him some time. I'm sure he'll-"

"No. It's my own fault this is how things ended up." Emerald said as she watched him run back into town with tears. "I'm so sorry, little one. I'm so sorry." She softly said hating herself for hurting him. "I'm sorry but I need to go. There's someone I need to find." Before they could question her, she shoots into the air covered in fire turning back to her original size and flies over the Everfree Forest.

"Oh. I wonder what's going to happen on the next part." Discord said making Twilight and the guys give him disapproving glares.

[Cue Opening]

Ponyville

Everypony was enjoying and going about their day normally. That is till they walked by Twilight's library, where explosive sound was heard. Somepony's were curious what happened but just ignored it continuing their day figuring it was just another day in the life of Ponyville.

Inside the library, Twilight had been teaching Reiji the basics of magic in the living room when the explosion sound was heard. They quickly turn to the basement's door the moment they heard it and seconds later as they run up to the door, the door is pushed open with Connor having a deadpan look while blowing out smoke.

"Are you okay? What happened?" Twilight asked as she looked him over.

"I was just trying to mix an extra essence into a fullbottle. But it seems I added to much of the essence causing the two to react negatively." Connor cleans himself off with magic in a flash of purple.

Reiji sits raising a brow. "Why are you trying to mix two essences?"

"No real reason. I was just curious to see what happens when it works." He says shrugging his shoulders before tossing a bit up with his magic. The bit disappears in a flash of light with an apple flashing in a second after, that he catches and takes a bite out of. "I do have to admit, Apple family apples sure taste the best."

"I still can't believe it's only been a week and you've already gotten used to using magic as if you've used it all your life. I'm a bit jealous." Twilight gives him a curious look. "How do you make it seem easy for yourself?"

"An experiment." He answered confusing the two. He sighs. "Think of like there's many possibilities to finding an answer, you try finding a way to channel magic that feels comfortable without casting a spell or any magic and then just adjust it from there till the spell doesn't affect you as much." He demonstrates by teleporting himself somewhere and then reappearing with a royal guard's helmet without breaking a sweat. "Or at least that's how I was able to do it."

Reiji taps his chin in thought while Twilight was writing down what he had said. "I wonder if that could work for me with the unicorn medal."

"That's amazing, Connor. Imagine what your Equestrian self must be like. I wouldn't be surprised if they were a top student at Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns." Connor scoffs in a displeased tone. "Um...Did I say something wrong?"

Reiji sighs. "He's been displeased with the thought of a school only for unicorns ever since he found out about it."

Twilight looks at Connor questionably. "Why?"

"I just don't like it when someone only focuses on one thing." He answered while bringing out his phone to look over some data. "You all believe every creature has magic and yet you haven't looked into the possibility of other creatures being able to use magic in a unique way. An example would be Em-"

Connor stopped looking around. Ever since the Spike found out Emerald's lie, he had surprisingly been hanging around the CMC everyday, while Emerald had stayed in the Everfree Forest not having come by once.

The rest of the girls had gone to them looking for answers after they saw Spike run all the way to the library crying while ignoring them when they called out to him. After explaining to them and letting Spike have some time to calm down, they tried talking him into giving Emerald another chance to explain herself but refused. Discord even made him a room so he could shut a door in their face and locked himself inside of.

"Don't worry. Spike isn't here. He left out to meet up with the CMC." Twilight said assuring him.

"Again?" Connar asked. "That's his sixth time hanging out with them. Didn't you say he usually helps around here or goes over to Rarity's boutique?"

Twilight nods. "I think he's doing it to avoid me and the girls."

"I guess that's a smart way for him to avoid talking and hearing about Emerald." Reiji said tapping his chin.

She sighs. "I should start helping everypony get ready for the Summer Sun Celebration. Spike is usually around to help but that doesn't seem like a choice this time. Do you two want to come along and help out with the celebration?"

"I'd be happy to help." Reiji happily volunteered. "It'd be neat to see what celebrations are like here in Equestria."

Connor shakes his head. "Sorry but count me out. I want to finish these bottles before the celebration starts. Because I know as soon as it does, Pinkie is going to drag me there." He turns and walks back down into the basement.

"Okay. Good luck on." Twilight shouted out to him from the top of the steps. "Let's get going then, Reiji." He nods agreeing and turn to leave the house with her.

Connor walks over to a table with a machine that has his dragon bottle connected to it sending essence down into three different empty containers with an emerald, ruby and sapphire under them. He makes adjustments, starts it making it the gems send essence in with the dragon essence, they begin mixing into a swirl. Connor watches it for a second before he walks over to a table with two of the items he was working on back at the cafe with tools.

The two items seemed to be more completed now. On seemed to have a red and black motorcycle frame-like design, along with a throttle handle on the left side and a silver shark tooth look for the saw disc with a dark blue transparent edge. The second is a silver knuckle weapon with a dragon head mold.

"Glad this world's Discord was able to help me bring these here. It made dealing with being here for a week bearable." He said to himself while picking up the knuckle weapon. "Maybe this can cheer up Spike if I can finish it."

The Everfree Forest

Spike and the CMC were walking through the forest making sure to keep close to each other.

"You know, you three didn't have to come with me, right?" He says looking back to them while still walking.

"And leave a friend ta wonder these woods alone tryin' ta find their aunt? Not a chance, Spike." Apple Bloom states shaking her head. "As yer friends, we have yer back. THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS ARE AT YOUR SERVICE!!" The CMC shouted the last part together making Spike smile.

"Plus, this is a chance to meet a friendly full-grown dragon and see what they can do." Scootaloo looks up daydreaming. "Do you think she'd be willing to let us have a ride on her back?"

Sweetie Belle trotted up next to Spike. "Is she really as beautiful as Fluttershy says she is? Me and Rarity had been curious about what she looks like ever since we heard about her."

"Yeah. Even in the other world she looked really pretty." Spike said with a sad smile. "I really hope seeing what she's doing out here will give me an answer of some kind. I just want to know why she thought leaving me was for the best."

Apple Bloom comes up to his right. "I'm sure yah'll find something out. And if not, we'll all help yah convince her inta tellin' yah what happened."

"Though how are we supposed to find her out here? The Everfree is huge. It'd take us forever to search the whole place for her." Scootaloo said looking around unsure.

"I think I have something that can help." Spike said stopping to look through his bag.

The girls stop with curious looks wonder what he's looking for and a second later, he pulls out a gold lock. The girl stare at the padlock before looking at him confused.

"Um...Is you head okay, Spike?" Sweetie Belle asks putting a hoof to his head. "You don't seem to have a fever."

Spike pushes her hoof away giving her a deadpan look. "I'm fine. This is just something our friend Connor made for me after the Rainbow Dash in his world gave him the idea for it."

"Okay. Then how's a lock is supposed to help us?" Scootaloo asked eyeing the lock.

"He said it's supposed to be a type of assistant. If I remember correctly, he said to use my bottle." He said while taking out the dragon fullbottle. He shakes the bottle, twists the top and inserts it into the keyhole that's under it making a charge sound as the dragon bottle charged it. "Looks like it's working."

It unlocks with the shackle of the lock unfolds along with half of the padlock into a tail with small feet coming out from the bottom after taking out the bottle and the other half unfolds into a neck with a small head shooting out. It now has the appearance of a Chinese dragon with the parts that unfolded being the same blue as the bottle.

The group look at it amazed as it lets out a roar hovering in the air and then flying around them with blue flames coming out its feet.

"Now that's awesome! You think that friend of yours could give us little guys like thing. Woah!" Scootaloo jumps back from it puffing out small flames at her. "Hey, what's the big deal?"

"Ah think it didn't like that yah called it a thing." Apple Bloom said guessing.

Sweetie nods. "True. It probably wants a name. You should give it one, Spike."

Spike taps his chin thinking. "How about...Ryuga?" Ryuga roars agreeing. "Okay then. Ryuga it is. Then Ryuga, can you help us find my aunt?" Ryuga's eyes glowed as it looked around and then roars flying to their left. "Come on. Looks like he found something. Come on." The girls nod as they all run following Ryuga.

"So, why'd yah name him Ryuga?" Apple Bloom asked as they ran.

"I just remembered it from a book I read once that came from a different land. I think it means dragon or something relating to dragon." He shrugs telling her as they continued following.

Sugarcube Corner

Twilight, Mr. and Mrs. Cake had their jaws hanging as they watched a group of Reiji's working alongside Pinkie baking for the festival in groups. Each group working on something different.

"You're really amazing, Reiji. I never knew pegusas could use magic to make a lot of yourselves." Pinkie said as she baked. "I did that once too with a magic pond to have fun with everyone. I made so many of my selves that it got to a point we weren't sure which me was the real me and had to play a game at staring at paint to dry to find out which me was me and send the other me's back with Twilight using a spell."

"Cool. I'm just using one of my medal combo's abilities as a magical ability." Reiji explains. "Turns out my magic can use them as long as I have one of the medals needed of the combo. The crocodile medal is the one that helped me figure that out. Lucky for us, my clones can just either disappear after a while or merge back into me. So, we don't need to worry about them."

"You really found yourself an interesting friend here, Twilight.

Twilight chuckles. "Yeah. He and some others really helped me out when I needed it the most." She clears her throat to get Reiji's attention. "Well, I guess I since you have this covered, I'll go check to see how everything else is going."

"Really? Well, if you need help, I could have one of my copies go with you."

"No. That's alright. I'll be fine. When you're done, just meet me at Town Hall. See you two later." Twilight says as she leaves out to the door. "Bye Pinkie. Bye Mr. and Mrs. Cake."

As they say bye to her, Reiji having looked out the window makes a confused look thinking he saw something move in an ally across the road. He stares at it for a few seconds before shrugging and continuing to help bake.

The Everfree Forest

Spike and the CMC continued to follow Ryuga through the woods, panting from having followed him for a long while now.

"Are we...sure Ryuga knows...where he's going." Scootaloo asking between breaths.

He shrugs. "How am I...supposed to know? This...is my first time...using him."

"Guys, look." Sweetie says making them look ahead to see Ryuga stopped. "Do you think he found her?"

"Only one way ta find out." Apple Bloom said as they caught up.

They end up scaring themselves half to death when they stop at last second in front of a ledge. They take a minute to recover from the scare and regain their breath before their about to yell at Ryuga.

"Hey, you!" The loud, scary voice startled them to duck down. "Get back to work." They peek down the ledge to see a black and red kaiju bat with a gold mask and necklace, its head has spiky hair. It was sitting on steps that led up to the ledge.

It was yelling at black human shaped creatures with small bat wings, a gold tail shape going across its chest, round gold and red eyes, and a red belt with a buckle that's round with bats wings, along with a blade hanging from the side.

"We must be done before the plan begins." A second kaiju shouted. Its a white and light blue icicle kaiju with a sabretooth skull face, ice shaped ribs, and big icicle-like claws.

The four reel themselves back. "We have to get out of here and let Reiji and Connor know about this." Spike whispered as they backed away a bit.

"Spike, do yah know what that thing is?" Apple Bloom asked.

He nods. "Kinda. All you need to know is that they're dangerous and only those two can deal with it."

"But they were talking about a plan starting soon, right?" Sweetie brought up. "What if they're planning to attack Ponyville."

"All the more reason to go and warn them." Spike turns to leave.

Scootaloo shakes her head. "No. We should hear what they're planning first before we go." She says moving back towards ledge.

"Scootaloo, no." Apple Bloom and Spike warn.

As she got to the ledge, a piece of it breaks falling. "Oops." The piece lands near the kaiju, catching all their attention looking at the piece and then up to her. "Actually, running sounds good. But we should run there!" They all run after she shouts the last part.

"Imps, after them!" The bat-like kaiju shouted to the black creature run up the steps to go chase after them. "Maybe you should go as well, Hyogakki. Never know how the Imps might fail."

Hyogakki scoffs. "Against rodents? You're thinking small of me, Vampaira." Hyogakki hits the wall next to itself.

"One of us should go and make sure those rodents meet their end before they can warn anyone. While the other stays here to absorb the trees power. And last I checked, I'm the only one who can absorb energy." Vampaira stated pointing at itself. Hyogakki growls before leaving up the steps. "That's what I thought."

Spike and the girls run as fast as their legs could take them with Ryuga flying next to them. Spike looks a bit back behind them to see the Imps running not that far behind them.

He looks to Ryuga. "Ryuga, go get Connor. Let him know we're in trouble. Ryuga nods before flying off over the trees back to Ponyville.

Spike thought they'd be able to outrun them or buy enough time for Connor to show up if they kept up their pace. That was till they stopped seeing another group of different humanoid kaiju coming up in front of them.

These creatures were gray with wavey pink lines across their bodies, a black belt with a silver buckle, gold around their ankle and wrists, purple round eyes and small horns. They run towards them carrying spiked clubs.

"There's more of these things?!" Scootaloo shouted.

"Quick. Let's go that way." Apple Bloom runs to the left with the others following her.

They keep running with the grunts still following a bit far behind after they bumped into each other and squabbled a bit before resuming chasing them.

"Oh no!" Sweetie shouts.

They came to a stop in front of steep mountain. They look for another spot to run but find only a stone wall on both their sides, leaving them cornered.

"Let's turn back!" Scootaloo turns around to run but stops seeing the grunts having caught up and begin to surround them.

Spike places himself in front of them after taking out the dragon bottle. "Stay behind me." He said while tightening his grip on the bottle.

"Spike, no!" Apple Bloom said full of concern.

Right as the grunts run at them, something comes running out of the woods at an incredible speed as it attacks the grunts looking like a silver streak making sparks fly off their chest and backs. Within a few seconds, the group see grunts all explode after falling to the floor.

"Are all of you alright?" They jump being startled by a male voice next to them. They look next to them to find a wolf that's bit bigger than an average wolf. He looks like Negi, but his fur is silver instead of gray, doesn't have the scarf and has a scar going down his right eye. "Good thing I was close by when I heard the commotion. What are you- Hey, you're Emerald's nephew, right?" He said taking a closer look at him.

Spike and the girls back up a bit. "Um...Yes. Emerald is my aunt. My name is Spike. But who are you?"

The wolf raises his head. "Oh, that's right. You wouldn't know me since we've never actually met. Truthfully, I knew you as an egg." He said surprising the group with Spike then taking a step forward.

"Y-You knew me as an egg?" The wolf nods at his question.

"My name is Zero." Zero said as he looked around. "We can talk later. We should leave before more of those things show up. Come on. I give you a lift back to Ponyville. Though we'll have to take the long way around to avoid those things." He says lowering himself. The group look at each other for a second before climbing onto his back. "Hold on tight, everyone."

Zero then proceeds to easily running up the steep mountain and reaches the top in 10 seconds.

Ponyville

Mr. and Mrs. Cake were at work serving customers while Reiji and Pinkie were finishing up their work by baking a couple of cupcakes. To not waist strength, he had gotten rid of his clones. He puts mittens on his wings, opens the oven and pulls out a tray of cupcakes.

As he turned with the tray, he bumps into Pinkie making the both of them fall over. While Reiji hits the floor, Pinkie's mane bounces her back to her hooves with a black object falling out of it and catches the tray with a mitten that she was already wearing. He looks back up to her surprised.

"How'd you-"

"With my Pinkie Sense." She answered before he could finish asking. "It makes me feel different things depending on what it senses. Like my twitchy tail means that stuff is going to start falling. Or when my back feels itchy, it means it's my lucky day. Or also"

Reiji was paying attention full of interest till right then when he notices the black object, taking his full attention. The object looks like a case holder of sorts with light blue lines at the top and bottom on opposite corners going to the middle to meet at where three circles are at. Two of the circles had the lines going through them to lead to the middle circle with the two circles also being covered a bit by three rings around the middle one. Reiji picks it up recognizing it as OOO's O Medal Holder.

He opens it to find a couple medals. Inside it were the hawk, tiger and grasshopper medals he already has along with other colored ones which he recognizes as the condor, cheetah, stag beetle, rhino, eel, turtle, kangaroo, centipede, bee and ant. He also found one that was new. It's a medal with a transparent brown wood color with the image of an ostrich.

Reiji looks up at Pinkie confused. "Pinkie, where'd you get this?" He asked as she was still talking.

Pinkie stops looking at the holder. "Oh. That?" Reiji nods. "While we were giving the Equestria Games inspector a tour of the Crystal Empire, a pony I've never met or seen before gave it to me. They said that the rest of the medals were safer with me so they can guard the others while acting as bait. I'm not sure what they meant by that. But I took it gladly and gave him a present in return."

"Do you remember what this pony looked like?" Reiji curious on who this pony was that they knew about the medals. He already had a guess on who was after this pony for the medals.

Twilight's House

Connor was working on the circuits and wires of the knuckle using magic to hold the tools. His attention gets drawn from the knuckle to the device with the three bottles.

He sets his tools down as he gets up to walk over to the machine. Connor takes the bottles off the machine to look them over. All three have a dragon image but with different looks and colors, along with the gray part being a silver color. First was a roaring ruby dragon, the second is a sapphire dragon going into a loop around a speed meter and the last is an emerald dragon moving in a twisting motion.

"Interesting. Now the question is, what do they do?" Connor was in thought till the sound of something breaking is heard upstairs. "What was that?" He asks himself before he began to head up.

Everfree Forest

Spike and the CMC were riding on Zero as he ran quickly through the forest.

"Wow. You're almost as fast as Rainbow Dash." Scootaloo said amazed.

"She's that famous pegusas who leaves a rainbow trail, right?" They nod. "Well, it is true that she's faster by natural speed. But I could enhance my speed if I wanted to with my magic. I just don't want any of you to get hurt from the force of the speed."

"Really? How fast can you go?" Sweetie asked curious.

Zero chuckle. "I doubt you'd believe me even if I told you. We should be getting close to Ponyville soon."

"Um...Mr. Zero, can yah tell us how yah knew Spike when he was an egg?" Apple Bloom asked reminding her friends of that.

Spike being at the front of the group looks down at Zero's head. "That's true. How did you know me as an egg? Does that mean you know why my aunt Emerald left me?" His questions make Zero sighs sadly.

"So. you found out. Not surprising considering who you're related to. And don't ask me about that." Zero said stopping them from asking. "That question is for your aunt to answer. As for wanting to know why she left you with the ponies, do you really want to know?"

"More than anything." Hearing Spike say this makes him slow down.

Zero stops on top of a hill. "I can't tell you how I know all this. So, please bare with me. Do you any of you have or know what it's like to be close to a sibling." They all nod. "That's how your mother and aunt were. They were always close and cherished what the other treasured equally. So believe me when I say both your parents and her loved you very much."

Spike jumps off and gets in front of him. "Then, why'd they give my egg to her? Why did she leave me with the ponies instead of keeping me with her? Please, tell me."

Zero scratches his head with his paw for a second before lowering himself to be close to Spike's eye level.

"Your parents gave your egg to your aunt to keep you safe. A dragon that wanted to destroy your parents was after anything close to them. So, they gave your egg to her to run away with while they faced off against it. After that, they never were seen or heard of again."

"Does that mean..." Apple Bloom asked afraid along with the others to know the answer.

Zero shakes his head. "No. Dragons have an ability to know when a loved one has passed. That's why you never felt they were completely gone. Am I right, Spike?" Spike nods. "Your aunt feels that too. That's why she's been spending the last 500 years looking for them. Though as for why she left you, that's because-" Zero stops standing back up with an ear raised.

"What's wrong." Spike asked worried.

He looks off into the distance to their left before looking back to them. "Someone I know is in trouble. I have to go." He's about to leave but sees Spike's sad face. "I can tell you're upset by her choice and want answers. I can't tell you what you should feel but you should at least know that...the choice she made was the hardest thing she ever had to make in her whole life. Never doubt that." He gently shoves them towards the direction of Ponyville. "Now hurry back to town. Warn them of the danger that's here."

Zero runs off after saying that. They see him running for a second till he races off into the distance as a silver streak disappearing in the blink of an eye. The CMC turn and leave running but Apple bloom stops seeing Spike still looking towards the distance.

"Come on, Spike. We have ta go." Spike sigh before turning to run with them. "At least yah know she left fer a good reason." Spike looks down sadly hearing her say that.

"I know. I...I just want to know why she couldn't tell me herself if she had that reason."

Apple Bloom looks at him with concern. "Maybe- Kyaaahhh!!"

"Apple Bloom!" Spike along with the other girls stopped shouting hearing Apple Bloom scream and see an Imp holding her up by her tail. He takes out the dragon bottle and runs up to it. "Let her go!"

Sweetie gasps. "Spike, look out!"

Spike quickly looks to her and then up to see two Imps coming down above him. He freezes in fear unsure of what to do. As they're about to get him, a big stream of fire flies over the Imp holding Apple Bloom hitting and destroying the ones over him. The Imp feeling the ground shake turns only to be grabbed by Emerald who easily takes Apple Bloom and roars at it before tossing the grunt over the woods.

"Are you alright, little one?" She asks Apple Bloom as she held in the palm of her claw. Though all she could manage was a nod from losing her words from both being amazed by her and awe struck by her beauty. "That's good to hear." As she set her down, she turns to look to Spike. "Spike, what are you little ones doing out here? Do you know what things are out here? It's dangerous and you all could've-"

"Why would you care?" Spike shouted upset interrupting her lecturing. The CMC wanted to speak but felt like they should let them vent. "You didn't leave a note. You didn't come to visit or check up on me."

"I was busy looking for your parents. I didn't want to interrupt your peaceful life till I found or knew what happened to them"

"Yeah. Running a store was so much more important than talking to me. You didn't even want me to know we're related. I'm pretty sure that speaks for how much you and my parents cared."

Emerald slams her hands on to the ground growling. "You can say all you want about me, Spike. But don't you ever dare say that about your parents. Not after what they gave up protecting you."

"And what would that be exactly?"

"To watch you grow." Hearing this takes the fight out Spike. Especially from the tears that fell from her eyes as she spoke. "It tore them up so much just handing your egg over to me. Just that hurt them so much because they knew the moment you hatched; they'd be missing every first for you. You first time crawling, walking, talking, breathing fire, along with so much more."

"It hurt yah a lot as well, didn' it?" Apple Bloom speaks up interjecting her opinion. Along with getting their attentions. "Yer friend told us that you and yer sister cherished each other's treasures equally. Meanin' it hurt yah just as much."

Emerald and Spike look back to each other with Emerald sighing seeing Spike look down sadly. "Look, Spike. I didn't-" Emerald lets out a shriek of pain from blue blast hitting her back.

"Emerald!" Spike and the CMC shouted. Emerald begins to freeze till her eyes glowed with her body heating up to melt the ice. They look to the direction the lasers came from to see Hyogakki walking towards them.

"And here I thought killing you rodents would be a waste of time. But looks like I'll be able to enjoy this now."

Emerald looks at her back for any damage before looking to the kids. "Spike, I'll distract this kaiju. You and the others run back to town."

They shake their heads. "We can't just leave you to face that thing alone." Spike runs next to her tightening his grip on the bottle. "I'll help you."

"Us too." The CMC all shout lining up next to Spike.

Hyogakki swung its claw, sending a cold freezing air over them to create a huge wall of ice behind them.

"No one is leaving. You'll all be dead by the time I'm done with you."

As the kaiju spoke, blue energy built up in its claws and then fires the same blast towards them that hit Emerald. Emerald reacts quickly taking a deep breath with her eyes glowing, then breathes out crimson fire that creates heat wave around it as it went towards the blast and canceled each other out. Before they could launch another attack they stop hearing a loud noise with everyone looking back towards the direction of the cave to see a black shining object fly into the sky.

"What is that?" Sweetie asks.

Everyone turns back to Hyogakki when they hear it chuckle at the question.

"It's our present to this world."

Ponyville

Reiji and Pinkie are walking through town on their way to Town Hall with the pastries that they had baked in a wagon. While they were walking Pinkie was tell him the short version of the adventures and events that her and her friends had helped with or been in.

"And then Twilight reappeared in a flash as an alicorn. After that we celebrated the birth of Princess Twilight at Canterlot."

Reiji chuckles. "That sounds amazing. Though now it's a good thing Connor decided to stick back at the library. If you told him that story, he would be having a field day with Princess Celestia on lecturing her how testing someone on completing someone else's work, or spell in this case, is a poor way of seeing if someone is worthy."

"Wait! Connor has just been at the library this whole time? I'll go get him to help out."

"Pinkie, wait." He had said too late as she dashed off at an unbelievable speed leaving pink smoke in her shape that wave him bye and dashed off at the same speed after her. "And yet they say Discord is the strange one." He chuckles at the end as he continues walking.

"Kyaaahhh!!" Reiji stops from hearing ponies screaming and panicking, then turns to look behind himself as they run past him to see the gray grunts attacking the town.

"What the- Sentai kaiju? What are they doing here?" Not wasting anytime, his three colored streak changed to yellow as he unhooked himself from the wagon and ran towards the grunts as he slashed them with the claws appearing at the end of his wings at a fast speed, going in a zig zag pattern to destroy them before they damaged anything. "Just to be clear, are you from the Super Sentai or Power Ranger world?" He asked stopping next to one and is answered with it trying to hit him with its club. "Geez. Sorry I asked." He resumes destroying them.

"Hey, Reiji!" He hears stopping as Rainbow lands next to him. "What the hay is going on here? What are those thing?"

"All I can tell you is that their kaiju from another world called Orgettes. As for why they're here, I'm lost just as much as you are."

"Then lets teach these creeps what happens when they mess with Ponyville." Rainbow takes off towards the grunts. She punches some with her hooves while dodging the clubs of the others as she flew by them.

Reiji was about to join but stops hearing a loud noise. "Huh?" He looks off towards the Everfree to see the black object far off in the distance. "Looks like the real trouble is about to begin."

Twilight's House

Connor comes out of the basement to see the house being torn apart by Orgettes looking to be in search of something but stop when they notice him.

"Okay. I know for sure you guys aren't part of this world. Woah!" He begins to dodge as they try attacking him with their clubs. "You fella really need to talk things out. Since I don't want to damage anything, magic it is."

Connor just stands still as the Orgettes swing their weapons at him but stop as he grabs and lifts them with his magic. "My turn," He said as he sends them flying into each other. They keep throwing themselves at him as he just keeps easily throwing them to the side. But then he notices that they start retreating. "Why are they running?"

"HELP!" He hears what sounds like scream out. He looks out the window to see her and Applejack being carried away by the grunts as they tried struggling. Along with one leaving with a book.

"It's because they got what they wanted." He hits his head with a hoof before teleporting outside. He was about to use his magic to grab the girls but stops hearing the same loud noise and turning to see the object. "That can't be good."

Back at the Cave

Vampaira walks into the cave till it came up to where a crystal looking tree stood in the middle with a six-pointed star shape at the center of it, along with marks of a sun and moon on the trunk. Small round gem objects were hanging from the branches of the tree with five of the branches having five empty gem shaped spots.

Imps were standing next to the tree, throwing themselves at it which resulted in the being destroy by the tree releasing a flash of light. Vampaira was watching as this continued and chuckled seeing the light becoming weaker.

"Enough!" It shouted making the Imps stop. "The Tree of Harmony is finally weak enough for me to absorb the rest of its energy."

Vampaira holds its hand in front of its face before thrusting it forward, firing out a red light that hits the tree and begins to absorb the energy and change it into a small shard of a crystal.

"What?! Even weakened, it still has enough strength to resist my power. Seems we'll have to go with plan B. Meaning all of you are needed to feed the plunderseeds." Vampaira says turning to the Imps and using its ability to steal their power making a lot of crystals that it then throws half of them onto the ground. The crystals glow disappearing as the ground glows absorbing the energy which it then begins to shake. "Now to make sure no magic user interferes. Especially the Lord of Chaos."

The Kaiju brings out a black crystal orb that he sends the rest of the crystals energies into. It comes to life glowing as it then shoots straight up into the sky. After reaching a high altitude, the orb creates a giant dark purple spell circle with a pentagram shape on the inside of it. Three of the pentagrams corners in a triangle pattern had circles at the end of them going a bit through the ring of spell circle with two pointed ends between each of the three.

A purple veil followed the ring of the spell as it began to stretch over the sky of the forest at a fast speed. It soon reaches the spot Emerald and the kids are at. Emerald quickly places herself over the kids as the veil got closer.

The veil does nothing as it passes through Hyogakki. Though as it went through the others, their bodies began to glow making the CMC fill with fear. In the flash of light they had been changed into their human counter parts which makes the girls scream.

"Emerald, What's going on?" Spike asked confused as they all look themselves over.

"I'm not sure. I've never seen a spell circle like that. Uh!" Emerald reacts quickly holding her hands foreward to create a wall of fire that shields them from Hyogakki's freezing wind.

The kaiju chuckles "Interesting. Nothing around should know how to use magic in that form,"

"Let's just say I've been in a situation like this." Emerald said as her eyes and hands glowed with magic.

"Then lets see what you can do." Hyogakki shouts charging towards them.

Not wanting to involve them, Emerald creates a ring of fire around the kids before doing the same running towards the kaiju. "Emerald!" The kids shouted with worry.

She jumps over the kaiju as it swung its claws at her. While above it, she holds out her left hand to shoot a stream of fire at it while holding her right arm back to build up fire around her fist. Hyogakki turns around swiping its left claw to block the fire with a wall of freezing air. Emerald swung her fist at it as soon as she landed but all the kaiju does is raises and blocks the fist with its right claw.

"How disappointing." It said as it shoved her off and made her jump back by shooting blue lasers from its claws. "You'll need something stronger than that to make me feel anything at all." Hyogakki then continues to make her run around by shooting lasers at her which she also fires streams of fire each chance she gets.

Ponyville

Reiji saw the spell circle form in the distance. "First Sentai grunts and now a spell circle from Magiranger? Molten and his group probably aren't a part of this if I had to guess." Discord and Fluttershy appear popping in next to him. "Nice to see you guys are okay."

"Oh my. This is horrible." Fluttershy said looking around with fear in her eyes before focusing back on Reiji. "W-We were just e-enjoying the sun with my animal friends."

Discord nods agreeing. "But then it was ruined with all the screaming that was happening here. From how things are going, you'd almost think it was my work, minus the fun though."

"We don't think, Dipcord. We know this mess has your name written all over it." Rainbow says landing in front of them with Rarity and Twilight coming running up to them as well. "So, I suggest you undo this who mess fast before you get sent back to the garden."

"Actually Rainbow-" Reiji was speaking till Discord steps in front of him.

"I honestly had nothing to do with this, Rainbow Dash." He pops a scout uniform onto himself. "Scouts honor."

"I can vouch-"

Rarity scoffs interrupting Reiji. "You expect us to believe these hideous things didn't come from your magic."

"Actually about that-"

"Exactly!" Rainbow shouts agreeing, cutting him off again. He slaps a hoof to his face with Fluttershy patting his back knowing how it feels. "Now change every-" The veil passed through them that second and in a flash of light everypony and draconequus was turned into human. "What? Woah!" She along with others fall over not being used to being on two legs. "W-What's going on? What happened to us? Where are my wings?"

Twilight stands looking herself over. "We're human. B-But how?"

"Is this how our otherselves look like?" Fluttershy asked looking to Twilight, who nods answering.

"Kyaaahhhhh!!" Rarity along with many other ponies/people screamed and began to panic even more than before as they tried standing or walking. "My hooves. My tail. My..." She gasped as she felt nothing on her head with her knuckle. "MY HORN!! Discord, this is just too cruel!"

Discord groans. "This isn't me. Why would I include myself in a parnk with you all? None of this is related to me at all." Saying this while crossing his arms, the ground begins to shake as black vines with thorns come shooting out of the ground and begins to slowly cover the whole town. Discord chuckles nervously. "Okay. I'll admit, that one is related to me."

"WHAT?!" All four girls shouted.

"Okay, guys. Let's just all take a second to calm down." Reiji says in a calming voice to get his friends to calm down a bit and listen. "Now let's try to think- Ugh!"

Reiji gets cut off again as he's hit into and breaking a cabbage stand. "No! My cabbages!" The owner of the stand shouts upset. Twilight and the group looked at what seems to be a giant tire that had came ramming into Reiji. It stood still for a second before it the bottom half rotated towards them before changing into a black kaiju.

The kaiju's upper body had the appearance of half a tire with its whole body having tire looking skin with the bottom part of its legs being tires, its face has a red engine appearance with an exhaust pipe on both sides of the face pointing sideways upward, having one eye and two big red horns above the eye with two smaller one at the top of its head.

The kaiju laughs as Rarity screams at its appearance. "That's more like it. I would love it more if you all continued to panic. Now the Element Barers and the Lord of Chaos, you're coming with us. Orgettes, get them back to the cave." It said as the grunts appeared coming out of the ground as gray liquid and began to grab them after having finished forming.

"Hey! Put us down!/Ugh! Get your disgusting claws off me./Let us go!/You fellas should read the script. It's suppose to be Celestia and Luna that are originally captured. I'm going to have a word with the writer later after this." Rainbow, Rarity, Twilight and Discord were shouting with Fluttershy shaking in fear as they were carried off towards the Everfree Forest.

"Now I get to have some fun." The kaiju says as it brings out two tire axes with a red rim, that it charges with pink energy. It throws both axes making them fly around like boomerangs smashing into a couple buildings and stands before returning to it with the people/ponies trying to run or avoid the attack and destruction. The kaiju chuckles at its work. "That's it. Keep screaming that beautiful music." (Sai!Kamakiri!Condor!) "What? Ah!"

The kaiju had turned around hearing a transformation noise and stumbles back after being slashed across the chest. It looks in front of it to see OOO with his mask having a rhino look with a white silver color, red eyes and gem on the forehead. His chest has the images of a rhino, mantis and condor legs with his arms having mantis like blades on his arms being in a light green color. His legs were red with a feather design on the knees with the outward part being longer and gold talon look on the toe and back of the feet.

"What's a sentai doing here?"

"Sentai? In what way do I look like a Sentai?" OOO said before avoiding the axes. He charges up to it as the axes went back to it. Using the mantis blades known as the kamakiriswords, the two clash blades before pushing each other back.

"Try this." It sends energy into the ground under OOO making vines shoot out and wrap around his arms and legs. "I have you now." The kaiju charges it axes while OOO struggles trying to free himself.

OOO braces himself as it throws the attack. (VortexFinish!) A keyhole appears in front of OOO with s burst of blue flames shooting out to hit and drag the axes back at the kaiju, making sparks fly off it as it gets hit and falls to the floor.

"I'm real happy to see you, Build." He said as Build runs up to him in his keydragon form. He brings out the Vortex Saber and cuts OOO free. "Twilight and the others were taken to the forest."

"They took Pinkie and Applejack too." Build looks around the sky and then to the town still having some Orgettes attacking before going back to the kaiju. "I'm not really sure what's going on with these Sentai kaiju but they definitely don't have anything good planned for Twilight and the others. I have a better chance against Tire Org and keeping everyone safe. You go and help them out."

"Are you sure you can handle them?" Build nods to him. OOO returns the nod. "Then good luck, Build."

OOO lifts his belt back up as he turned running to the forest and switches the rhino and condor medals with hawk and cheetah. (Taka!Kamakiri!Cheetah!) After the medals spun stopping at the right medals, the condor leg image changes to the cheetah as the legs change to have a cheetah like look with the feet having a sneaker look and silver going around the feet. With cheetah OOO runs at a super fast speed being inside the forest in a second.

Build takes a few steps towards the Org but stops from Ryuga flying in front of him. "What are you doing here? Unless-" He looks at the floor for a second before looking back to Ryuga. "Go to the library. There's something there that can help. I'll head over after I'm done here." Ryuga roars before flying off.

"You really have a death wish if you think you can beat us all alone." Tire Org said as Orgettes began gathering in front of it.

"I don't think. I know I can." (Engine Cast; Engines Tank-Firetruck-Jet-Submarine-Rocket Deploy!) As the Engines are summoned, Build throws the rabbit and hedgehog bottles to change them into animal form and then they spread out to attack the Orgettes around the town. "Today I don't have time to play with you clowns." He said as he takes out the bottles and bring out shark and bike.

(Same!Bike! Best Match!) He turns the crank creating the construct with the new armor. (Are You Ready!) "Build up!" (Dokusouhunter!SameBike!Yeah!) Dragon was replaced with a navy blue color armor that has a shark head on the right shoulder, with dorsal fin on the right arm and next to the top left shoulder, with the left visor being shaped as a shark. Lock had been replaced with a scarlet armor with the with Build's original bike's front piece on the left shoulder, with an engine design and black bar line on the scarlet frame on the chest, a wheel attached to the left arm, and the left visor being shaped as throttle handle.

Build's belt summons the new saw weapon he had been working on. (Samethrottler!) Build takes ahold of it with his right hand as the takes a battle stance. "I'll be the one to find the formula to this equation." Build charges foreword with the Orgettes charging at him too.

At the school, Cheerilee and the foals/kids managed to move to the corner of the classroom as Orgettes had smashed their way in and approached them. She puts herself in front of her students as they cried and felt afraid of whats going to happen.

"Please just take me. Their only foals." Tried to beg but was ignored as the ready to attack them.

Before they could attack, the grunts were knocked over by Tank hopping on their heads in rabbit form. Cheerilee and the kids are surprised by this as it lands on a desk in front of them and using its cannon ears, fired and destroyed the grunts.

"Thank you for saving us." Cheerilee thanked the Engine which it replies back with a nod before hopping to the door and motioned with its ears for them to follow. "Come on, kids. I'm sure we'll be safe if we follow it." The kids just nodded and crawled following behind Tank.

Outside of Town Hall, Mayor Mare was doing her best to help everypony/everybody into the building. She had been worried about her town and citizens from the spreading panic and creatures attacking earlier but then was surprised when she started hearing less screaming and panicking, along with seeing the Engines attacking the creatures.

Like seeing Jet flying down shooting at Orgettes that had cornered Lyra and Bon-Bon, which gave them the chance to crawl away. Then sees Mr. and Mrs. Cake coming her way running using their twin's stroller to balance themselves with the grunts chasing behind them. She was about to warn them but then sees firetruck in hedgehog form get in between them, rolls shooting needles at the grunts and destroys them. She was amazed by how these small things were easily taking down the creatures.

Hearing the fighting, she looks to Build fighting the grunts as he slashed through them with his weapon. "What in Tartarus is happening today?"

Tire Org charged its energy as it watched Build. "You're mine now!" It sent the energy into the ground under Build. Build reacts quickly from the shark's ability to sense the vines coming up and cuts them to bits after avoiding them. "What?!"

Build turns to block Orgettes clubs with the tire on his arm, then used his saw to slash through them after shoving them back. "You're gonna have to try better than that." He said looking back to the Org. He then continues fighting and cutting his way through grunts and vines.

Outside the Cave

Twilight and everyone were being carried down the steps leading to the cave as they were struggling to free themselves. Twilight stops for a moment noticing they're right next to the Castle of the Two Sisters.

"Why would they bring us here?" Twilight questioned looking down to the cave. "Do they want us for something down there?"

"They must be after the Tree of Harmony." Discord said which receives confused looks.

Rainbow and the girls look at each other before looking back at him. "The tree of what?"

Discord looks at them with disbelief. "The Tree of Harmony. The tree from where Celestia got the Elements of Harmony from. Did the princess not tell you about any of this?" They all shake their heads. "Celestia really needs to learn to share important information like this."

"So, our elements came from this tree you're talking about?" Twilight asked.

"Yes. It's a tree that keeps the Everfree Forest in check." Discord answered. "Celestia and Luna aren't sure how it came into existence or why it does what it does, but they know that without the tree, all that is contained in the forest will be able to leave."

Applejack struggles to break free. "Is that why these crazy plants are showin' up in Ponyville?"

Rainbow deadpans and points at Discord. "No. Those are actually his doing from what he said." Rainbow says which upsets Applejack.

"Why yah no good dirty-"

"Hey, in my defense, that was before I was turned to good." Discord cuts in on her. "Plus, I tried to get rid of them but nothing I was doing was working. So, while I tried figuring out how to get rid of them, I kept sending back the magic the plundervines were taking from the tree."

"Why didn't you try asking for help? I'm sure Twilight could've figured it out. She's great with problems like these." Pinkie points out with Applejack, Rainbow and Rarity nodding. "Plus, it'd probably win her some points with your brother." She said making twilight blush while glaring at her.

Discord hangs his head down sadly as they are taken into the cave till Fluttershy pats his back while giving him a reassuring smile. "Discord has never asked anyone for help before. He's been too used to doing things on his own. So, he was afraid and wasn't sure of how to ask for help."

Rarity had been looking at him sternly but it softened by what Fluttershy said. She sighs in defeat before giving him a kind smile. "I guess it's understandable from how you've been on your own. And...I'm terribly sorry for not believing you early, dear." Applejack nods agreeing.

"Ah know a thing or two on not knowin' how ta ask fer help." She says with Rainbow just scoffing.

"You can always ask us for help, Discord." Twilight assures him. "No matter what, we'll always hear you out from any help you might need."

Discord smiles with watery eyes. "Thank you, Twilight. Thank you all." He dries his eyes. They look ahead to see the Tree of Harmony coming into view. "Looks like we're- Hey, watch where you're touching!" Discord and the others began to argue and struggle with Fluttershy whimpering as they were chained to the cave wall and are surrounded by the Orgettes and Imps.

Fluttershy becomes filled with fear from Vampaira have come falling from the ceiling and landed face to face in front of her. "Kyaaaahhhh!!"

"Hey! Leave-" Rainbow was shouting but is backhanded by the kaiju.

"Quiet you pathetic insect. The only reason you still breath is because we have use for you." It turns to the grunts. "Did you bring what we needed?" The Orgette carrying the book walks up and presents it. Vampaira takes the book and finds the Elements of Harmony in it. "Yes. Now we can proceed with the plan."

"I don't know what you have planned but you're wasting your time. The Elements would never work for something like you." Twilight said glaring at the kaiju.

Vampaira laughs wickedly before turning back to face them. "And here I thought you were the smart one of your group. I don't need them to work with me. I just need them to take the rest of the tree's power."

Discord looks at it confused. "I'm pretty sure the Elements would do the opposite and restore the power instead of taking it."

"That would depend." Vampaira said in a sinister voice send chills down their spines.

Pinkie gulps. "D-Depends on w-what?"

"Will the Elements use their power to save the tree or take it's power to save their bearers." It snaps its fingers making the Imps come up with their daggers out.

"And how exactly will this make our Elements choose?" Twilight asked Vampaira, which it answers by moving to the side to show them a spell circle on the ground that the Imps were dropping the Elements onto. "What is that?"

"Unlike your magic, our demon magic can either take or help give back life. So, after we give you each a fatal injury, if the Elements really want to save you, they can use the spell circle to take the tree's energy to restore you all."

The girls gasp while Discord glares at it. "If you dare touch any of my friends, then I'll make you will wish that you had stayed dead in your world."

Vampaira chuckles walking up to Discord before punching his stomach. "DISCORD!!" The girls screamed. "You- You monster." Fluttershy shout with an angry look at Vampaira.

"Then he should be making threats when he has his power to back it up. And now, let's see what the Elements will decide to save." snapping its fingers again, the Imps approach the girls slowly. The girls struggle with fear in their eyes while Discord struggled wanting to help. Right as they went for the stab, a magical purple aura surrounds them and they disappeared in a flash with the Imps only stabbing the cave wall. "What?! Where'd they go?!"

"It worked! Maybe Connor really should be a teacher." Vampaira looks towards the entrance of the cave to see OOO with his helmet in the unicorn form and the group next to him as he spoke to Twilight. "Who knew thinking of it as a melody would work."

Twilight became curious wanting to ask but remembered about the situation they're in. "We'll talk about that later. I think there's someone who's mad at you." OOO looks toward Vampaira and the grunts.

"How can a Sentai be here?" It says confusing everyone and making OOO sigh.

"Senwhat? Who or what is that thing talking about?" Rainbow asked.

"A different type of heroes that fight in teams." He looks to the Kaiju. "Sorry their, Vampaira, but I'm not a Sentai. Though I'm still a hero none the less. So, I suggest you pack up and leave while you can."

Vampaira laughs. "If what you say is true then I've got nothing to fear. Imps! Orgettes! Destroy him!" It snaps its fingers making the grunts charge him.

OOO charges his horn as it glowed purple. "I really doubt that." He fires his magic at the ground and changes it to quick sand making the grunts begin to sink in it. (Medabuster!) OOO's phone announce as it summoned the weapon which OOO takes ahold of and brings out the tatoba combo medals.

(Core-Core-Core Complete!) Tatoba's jingle starts to play as he aimed at the grunts with three big rings appearing in front of it and pulled the trigger. (Tatoba Overcharge!) As the shot goes through the rings, it changes to look like a chimera having the head and wings of a hawk, body of a tiger and back legs of a grasshopper. It goes all the way to the grunts and destroys them all in one explosion.

"And that's how it's- uh!" OOO gets grabbed by Vampaira as it flew by and flies out of the cave.

"OOO!" Twilight shouts with worry as her and the others run out of the cave to see the kaiju fly towards the castle.

"As they say, what goes up must come down." Vampaira flew down letting go of OOO, making him crash through the roof and land in the throne room. The kaiju comes breaking through the wall on the other side of the room landing on the ground. "This place shall be your tomb."

OOO gets up dusting himself off. "We'll see about that. I just hope the princesses won't mind the castle getting a bit more banged up." OOO takes a stance. "Now I shall judge your desire."

The Everfree Forest

Left and right bursts of fire and blue lasers came from the area Emerald and Hyogakki were battling as she was doing her best to avoid the kaiju's attacks by either using a flame shield or the trees while also sending her own streams or balls of fire at it.

The CMC watched as Emerald avoids some of the lasers by jumping up to and moving from tree to tree. They had been watching from the start as the battle seemed even. Though they started getting worried from how Emerald's movements was beginning to slow down, panting a bit.

"Spike's aunt isn't looking so good." Scootaloo said as she and her friends tried standing. "That thing is going to hit her with that ice soon at this rate."

"We have ta help her." Apple Bloom says trying to walk towards Spike, who's trying to force his way through the wall of fire that's keeping them put, but keeps falling over.

Sweetie looks at her hands while having a difficult time standing. "But what can we do? I can't even use my magic like this."

"Well, there has to be a way, right? Spike's aunt is using magic with no trouble." Scootaloo pointed out.

Hearing grunting noises, the CMC look seeing Spike punching the fire with the dragon bottle clenched tightly in his right hand. Spike stops for a second to look frustrated at the fire. He looks at his knuckle seeing his purple skin darken from how it felt like he had been punching a solid wall. Spike resumes punching while ignoring the stinging feeling he was feeling from it.

"Spike, please calm down. Yer gonna hurt yer self if yah don't stop." Apple Bloom full of worry says as she quickened her pace to him.

"I have to help her." Spike answered without turning to her.

"And do what exactly? How do yah plan on helpin her?" Apple Bloom was doing her best to stay balanced. "I'm pretty sure yah don't know any magic like yer aunt."

"I just need to get this stupid bottle to work. Why won't it work. Even, when I have a reason to fight, why won't it-" He had said this while swing the hardest he could at the flames with the bottle not reacting at all. But he stopped the moment he felt what he knew was Apple Bloom holding his arm back. "Would you-"

He was about to shove her off out of frustration and a bit of anger but loses it all the moment he faces her. Even with upset face she's making at him, he could tell that her eyes were full of worry and understanding. He lowers his arm as he relaxes while keeping his eyes on hers. Sweetie stayed quiet watching along with holding and covering Scootaloo's mouth.

Apple Bloom looks down sadly at his hand, being able to tell how bruised up it is along with the bit of blood coming from his knuckle. "I know how yah feel. I feel it every time Applejack leaves somewhere wit Twilight and the others. Even when Big Mac leaves ta deliver pies, I can't help wantin' ta go with them every time ta help out and keep them safe even though I know I there's nothin' I could do." Spike notices the small cuts and scratches on her hands, that she got from rushing over to him, as she opened his hand to look at the bottle. "Granny once told me somethin that she's heard and taught others in the family. She said that you shouldn't only fight just cuz yah have a reason ta. Because that alone will only get ya so far. Maybe that's the reason it hasn't responded. Maybe it wants ta feel more of how yah feel more of yer feeling's ta connect with for it ta work. If yah can do that," She pauses to look back up to him. "then I'm sure it'll answer yah."

Spike keeps his eyes on her for a second before looking down at his hand to stare at the bottle as he closed his hand back into a fist. "Gah!"

"Emerald!" They all shouted after hearing Emerald screamed and see her laying on the ground across from Hyogakki with ice on her waist. She tries to stand back up but could barely find the strength to lift herself.

Hyogakki laughs villainously as it walked slowly towards her. "Seems like you're at the end of your rope, dragon." The kaiju steps on her back before pointing its claw down at her charging it energy. "Be glad you were at least able to make this enjoyable for me."

Spike gets angry for a second but then remembers Apple Bloom's words as he looked at the dragon bottle and closes his eyes and hand on it as he held it against his heart. 'Please help me fight to protect those I care about, those who need help, to help me find the answers I'm looking for, and...to give me the chance to make things right.' Spike spoke in his mind to the bottle.

Spike's eyes shoot open as he reeled his fist back with the bottle beginning to glow, swung it forwards with his fist igniting with blue and green flames, and in one hit destroys the aura field that was hidden in the flames. Without even thinking, he bolts towards Hyogakki while letting the flames around his fist build up.

"What?! Ugh!" Hyogakki barely notices Spike as his fist makes contact with its chest making sparks fly off as it was sent flying back.

"Thanks." Spike spoke to the bottle before turning to his aunt. "Emerald, are you- Woah! huh?" He couldn't turn or move his legs at all making him look down and gets surprised from his legs being frozen. "When did-"

Hyogakki growls as it stood. "You damn little brat. Did you think I'd let the charge to my claw go to waste? Now you'll regret ever having stepped out of that shield." Hyogakki roared angrily swinging its claws sending the freezing blizzard towards.

Spike tries to break the ice with his burning fist, but ice refused to break. He prepares to build up the flames again, though he stops going wide eyed as the wind was about to reach him. "Spike!" The CMC screamed as Spike was swallowed by the blizzard. Apple Bloom falls to her knees as her eyes watered, not wanting to believe her friend was gone.

Hyogakki was chuckling about to laugh but stops seeing a red light. "How'd he-" The girls gasp as the light became clear to show it was Emerald having her body heated up while hold Spike close. "You damn bitch. You just couldn't accept defeat. Fine then." Hyogakki builds up energy before sending it to the clouds making black clouds with spikes come down, surrounding the sky over the two, "Then you can freeze together."

The kaiju sends another freezing wind towards them, though as it reached them, the clouds began unleashing their own blizzards that traps the two in a small freezing storm. Spike looked around as everything around them froze, then shattering the next second. This gives him a clear picture of what would've happened to him if it wasn't for Emerald.

"Emerald, I don't think it's a good idea to stay here. We need to get out of here." She stays silent. "Emerald? Emerald, what's wrong?"

"I was afraid." She said quietly. He wanted to question her about it but stopped when he feels a tear drop lands on his forehead. "I was afraid I wasn't enough."

"If you're talking about when my egg fell in the river, that wasn't your fault. Your friend Zero told us what happened. It's that dragon who attacked you that was to blame." Spike tried reassuring her.

Emerald shakes her head. "That was only part of the reason. That fight only showed me I wasn't strong enough to protect you. What I was afraid of was raising you." Tears ran down her cheek as she spoke. "Between me and your mother, I knew she would make a great parent. As for me, I never saw that as an option for myself. I was just supposed to be your fun, loving aunt. But when your parents had me take your egg, I...I became filled with so much fear and doubt that I was too afraid to hatch you. That's why when Celestia found you, I thought maybe it was a sign saying that I should leave you in a safe place and look for your parents instead."

"I-I'm sorry, Emerald. I didn't-"

Spike is cut off by Emerald holding him closer. "I'm so sorry, Spike. I'm so sorry for leaving you. I never wanted to hurt you. But I am glad you were able to find a great family. Which is why the least I can do is make sure you get back to them."

Hearing that confused him. "What do you-" He pauses as he feels his body warm up. He looks at himself seeing his body glow with the ice on his legs melting. Realizing what's happening he looks to Emerald with her glow fading and ice beginning to cover her bit by bit. "Emerald, what are you doing? You can't expect me to leave you behind. We both have to-"

He had begun to move towards the direction of the girls but stops as Emerald falls flat to the floor the second they moved. When he turns to her, he gasps seeing that her right leg was beginning to freeze. Spike was about to say something till Emerald held a finger to his mouth.

"You have to make it back to them. Back to Twilight." She said with a weak smile as her body was becoming weaker and hard to move as she got colder. "I just wish I could've been a part of it." As her glow faded out, Emerald's eyes close along with her arm slamming to the ground.

"No. No. Emerald, wake up. Please open your eyes." Spike shouted trying to wake her as the ice spreads on her body. He keeps igniting his hand with the dragon bottle's fire to try to warm her, but it keeps getting up out by the freezing wind. "Come on you stupid flame. Stay on. I can't let her die here. I can't lose her. Not after I just found her." As the ice covers her body, Spike looks down at the bottle before holding it to his chest. "Please, someone help me save her."

The dragon fullbottle comes to life shining brightly with the gray changing to purple with green outlining it as it sends a light into the sky, catching everyone attention as it opens a dimensional hole with a burning object coming out and towards the ground. (Volcanic Knuckle!) Was heard as the object hit the ground with a burning dragon made of magma shooting out of it. The dragon got rid of the storm and breaking through the clouds in seconds before going right at Hyogakki.

"What the hell!" It shouts as it tries blocking the dragon but gets dragged through some trees.

Spike was left speechless as a shadowy figure of a what looks like a Rider is seen through flames standing in front of him with their back turned to him. Spike then gets surprised seeing the heat of the Rider's fire was melting the ice completely off Emerald. The moment he looks back, the Rider turns to face him with only his orange visor able to be seen.

"I heard your call, kid. This is all I can do with the limited time I have here. But I will leave you with a chance to fight back." A Build Driver along with a couple objects is thrown out of the flames with Spike quickly catching the driver but the objects landing next to Emerald. "It's up to you to take it from here. You'll have to be the one to protect what you care about, Kamen Rider Cross-Z"

With that said the Rider flies back up into the hole as it closed. Spike looks at the driver for a second before looking towards Hyogakki as it recovered standing back up. Spike makes a determined look at the belt before putting it on.

"But how can I use this with only one bottle?" He questions looking down at the belt till he looks up hearing a roar to see a small dragon like Ryuga but more bulky looking, flying over him. It was mostly black with gold coloring on its head, neck, tail and a bit on its body with some blue covering small parts of the head and body. This is the Cross-Z Dragon. It folds its head and tail up to its body before dropping down to Spike. He looks at it confused for a second before noticing the single bottle slot at the top. "I hope I'm ready for this." He said to himself as he looked towards Hyogakki.

He shakes the bottle before twisting the top and putting it into the Cross-z Dragon. (Wake Up! Cross-Z Dragon!) It declared having been put into the belt making a different stand-by jingle play with the dragon's roar. Spike turns the crank making the same constructs as Build's with both armor sides being dragon with a dragon shaped armor piece next to Spike, along with green flames spiraling around both armors. (Are you ready?) "Henshin!" The construct closes with the dragon piece attaching to the back with the wings closing over his shoulder to be a chest armor and the neck laying over the helmet with its face giving the helmet a white mouth piece and gold dragon head on the forehead. (Wake up burning! Get Cross-Z Dragon! Yeah!)

The CMC looked at Spike with their mouths hanging open as he now looked had transformed into Kamen Rider Cross-Z. The chest piece has a gold flame design on it the left arm and upper part of the right leg also having a gold flame shape. The right arm and upper left leg didn't have a flame design till they gained an emerald flame look with.

Cross-Z looks himself over. "Wow! This feels amazing. So, this is what being a Kamen Rider feels like. Meaning now," He stares at Hyogakki who's growling angrily at him. "you're going to pay for having dared hurting my aunt." Cross-Z says taking a fighting stance.

"You're going to regret this choice, brat." The kaiju shouts as the two then charge at each other.

Ponyville

Tire Org runs up to Build as he destroys the rest of the Orgettes and turns in time to face it. The two's weapons clashed as they swung and blocked each other.

"Look's like if I want something done right, then I'll have to do it myself." The org said as they clashed till going into a stalemate trying to push each other back. While staying in place, Build unfolds the handle and twists the throttle making a revving engine sound come from the weapon as the saw became faster. "What?"

(Jawsome Crush!) The weapon called out as Build pushed the org back, spun around, and swung the Samethrottler in a sweep motion as it cut through the org's axes, along with getting it across the chest with sparks flying off it as it rolled to the ground. "You were saying."

"I'm out of here!" Tire Org shouted turning into a huge tire and rolling away.

Build shakes his head. "Like that's going to happen." He pulls out his phone quickly dials in '201-019'. (Mach Builder!) It called out as said bike transported in, with Build getting on and chasing after the org.

"What the hell is that Sentai? I need to get back to- What?!" Tire Org shouted as it takes notice of Build catching up to it. "Doesn't this hero know when to give up. Let's see him try to keep up with these."

The org built up energy that it releases all around causing the vines and spiked cloud to start coming out around them randomly. Using shark's ability, Build avoids the obstacles as he swerved and drove around past them.

"Shoot. Better help them out" Build says having taken notice of people/ponies being attacked by the objects. The bike visor glows as energy copies of Build's original bike, the Machine Builder, appear to attack and break through the vines and clouds that are attacking the citizens. "Now to get rid of the pest. Huh? What's that?"

Build jumps onto a row of clouds and takes notice of the light coming from the Everfree. "Spike. I've have no time to waste on this clown." He said looking back down at the org and twisting the handle of his weapon twice before jumping down in front of the org with the revving becoming louder.

(Jawsome Requiem!) He swings upward pushing the trigger sending a sawblade bike tire colliding into the kaiju and knocking the org fly landing in the middle of town. Tire Org gets slowly as Build stops a few feet from it. "What kind of Sentai are you?"

"Like I said, I'm not a Sentai. I'm Build. Kamen Rider Build. This is your only warning, give up now, Tire Org." Build warned pointing at it.

"RRRAAAAHHHH!!" The org shouted stomping the ground and then gathering the energy. "Not a chance. I refuse to lose to another of you colored heroes."

Build twists the handle three times making the revving sound get loader again. "Have it your way." He turns the belt's crank making dorsal fins come and move through the ground like water. Before the org could do anything, navy blue sharks came jumping out and biting on to it. "The law of victory have been set!" He said driving straight towards the org.

(Ready go! VortexFinish!Yeah!) (Jawsome Frenzy!) Before the Org could launch the energy, Build swerves making the bike spin as he goes in circles around the org making a small whirlpool with multiple slashes going through it. The second he comes to a stop in front of the whirlpool, Tire Org explodes sending bits of water all around.

"Now I've got to get to Spike." Build says to himself as he drives towards the Everfree Forest, not taking notice of one of the three circles in the spell circle crack.

Castle of the Two Sisters

After having switched to pegasus and condor, OOO had taken to the skies where he and Vampaira went back and forth clashing. As they flew by each other again, Vampaira quickly looks his way to use its draining ability on him, but OOO reacts quickly by deflecting it away with his sword.

"You're beginning to be a thorn on my side. Maybe some thunder will change that." Vampaira said angrily as it sent its energy into the spiked clouds around them, making them all bunch up together covering the sky over them with sparks coming out of them before lightning began shooting out of them.

"Shit!" OOO shouted doing his best to avoid fly by the bolts of lightning. "Okay, I'm really regretting having rejected Rainbow's offer on flight lessons now. Ah!" He had been saying himself while dodging the lightning till one got him. OOO tried withstanding it as he used his magic to push it back but it breaks through as three other joined it and sends OOO crashing into the stone steps in front of the castle.

Twilight and the girls gasp having seen what happened with Discord wincing from imagining how much that must of hurted.

"OOO doesn't seem to be doing so well." Rainbow says looking to Twilight who looks up at the clouds.

"If only we could get rid of those clouds for him." Twilight taps her chin trying to think of a way.

Discord was scratching his head while in thought till he looked towards the cave. "That's it!" He shouted getting everyones attention. "If you return the Elements to the Tree of Harmony, it should regain its power to get rid of those pesky shrubs and down pourers."

"Hold on. If we do that, then we won't have the Elements to keep you in line." Rainbow pointed out.

Discord groans. "We don't have time for this. We have to help OOO."

Applejack nods agreeing. "He's right, Dash. OOO may become burnt ta a crisp if we don't do somethin' ta help."

"He risked his life to save ours dear. Shouldn't we do the same for him?" Rarity added in.

Rainbow mumbled angrily under her breath till Fluttershy walked wobbling to her. "Please help OOO, Rainbow." She pleaded making Rainbow sigh.

"Fine. You're right. Then let's get our tailless hinds back down there." She said making her friends smile.

"Come on, everypony. We need to hurry." Twilight said as she and Discord helped everyone down the steps.

"HANG IN THERE, OOO!! WE HAVE A PLAN TO HELP!!" Pinkie shouted out over to him making her friends afraid Vampaira might've heard as they now rush down the steps.

OOO had managed to hear her as he was barely holding back the lightnings with his pegasus wings coated with a magic shield layer on them. "If that's the case, then I should try using a combo to break out of this. Let's see what all three pony medals can do." He said switching in horse medal. But as he tries running the scanner, the medals were forcing it back. "What? What's going on?" As he kept trying to force it, the medals glowed before switching themselves out for bat, kangaroo and ostrich. "Huh? Wait. Are these- Well, better than nothing."

Vampaira gets surprised as medals appeared pushing the lightnings back as they spun. (Komori!Kangaroo!Dacho!K-K-K-Ko-Ka-Cho!KoKaCho!) The belt announced playing a boxing ring jingle as the medals stopped at said ones and they merged into one as they changed OOO. "What's he doing?"

"RRAAAAHHHHH!! Ha!" OOO shouted out with the lightning being completely pushed back by waves of aura as the form filled him with power. Besides the bat head, the new form had a kangaroo image in the middle with brown lines along the armor and red boxing gloves on both hands that he punches together. The bottom image had an ostrich as a gray line ran down to the knees with the rest of the legs being gray with the tip of the foot being white along with white feathers with black tips running along the side of the thighs.

"Do you think switching costumes will change anything!" Lightning began to ran down again. OOO sees all the lightnings around him using bat's power and begins to easily move in a fast pace with ease and little amount of movements as he avoids the lightning, while using the gloves to punch the rest back at Vampaira. "What?! How are you doing that?!" It said before avoiding the lightning.

Inside the cave, the group had made their way in, having easily gotten the Elements as they slowly walked to the Tree of Harmony from still trying to get used to walking. As they got near the vines came creeping up to them from behind. Discord hears them in time to push Rainbow forward.

"Hey! What was tha- Discord!" Rainbow shouted making everyone turn to see Discord being wrapped up in the vines. "Let him go!" Rainbow shouts as her and the girls about to help.

"No! Just go! I'll keep them here!" Discord yells making them stop and see him let out his magic into them making the rest stop as the ones on him continued to wrap around him. "I promise, I'll be fine. Just get the Elements to tree to stop all this." The girls hesitate for a moment till they sadly nod and continued forward except for Rainbow. "Hey. You better watch Fluttershy and Twilight's back for me. Or else you'll never hear the end of it from me." He said smiling as the vines completely covered him.

"You better not be lying about being fine, Dipcord." She mumbled before rushing as fast as she could manage to her friends.

A few seconds later, they made it to the Tree of Harmony with the Elements and tree glowing as the two got closer to each other. The girls look at this sit for a few seconds before looking at one another. They all nod as they lock arms and begin concentrating making the Elements glow brightly after a moment. The gems from the Elements detached themselves from the necklaces and crown cause them to disappear. Five of the gems flew up to their respective branches and put themselves in with the trunk of the tree opening up for the Element of magic to place itself in.

The girls are amazed as the Tree of Harmony lights up with its life and power being restored as rainbow magical energy is released in a burst of waves leaving out the cave to spread all around the Everfree.

"What's happening?!" Vampaira shouted as it saw the magical waves were spreading around reaching all the way to Ponyville as they vaperised the vines and clouds. The kaiju comes to a realization looking down to the cave. "It must of been those- Gah!" Vampaira had forgotten about OOO, not seeing that with a fast speed, run up the castle to reach all the way up to it and kicking it downward into the ground.

OOO lands next to Vampaira. "Time for this to come to an end." He said grabbing the scanner. "Now, I'll show you the true strength of desire." (Scanning Charge!) The scanner announced after OOO ran it over the belt as he then got into a stance.

He ran through three rings as Vampaira got up, unleashing a power full screech to push it forward towards the castle at a fast speed along with hitting it with multiple jabs. "Saiya!" OOO shouted reaching the castle with his last punch smashed Vampaira into the wall and proceeds to walk away. "3. 2. 1. Knock out." OOO called out as the three rings placed themselves in a row on Vampaira as the kaiju exploded with the last word he said. Above him, another of the three circles cracks.

The girls rushed back to Discord and spotted him lying on the ground. "Discord!" They all shouted rushing to his side worried but let out a sigh of relief seeing him smile up to them.

"Told you I'd be fine. I'm just hoping that circle disappears soon so this drained feeling is- Uh! Hey!" Hs shouted annoyed as they all jumped hugging him, Rainbow included, smiling with a bit of tears in their eyes. They break the hug as they felt the ground shake a bit. "Seems like we still have one pest running around."

In the Everfree

"Woah!" Cross-Z yelled out as he and Hyogakki fell down into Ghastly Gorge on their feet. He ducks under Hyogakki's swing, then follows to punch it multiple times with flaming fists making sparks fly off it as they turned to face each other. "This is amazing." He said to himself looking at his hands as the kaiju stumbled back.

"Don't get too full of yourself, brat." Hyogakki fired blue lasers at Cross-Z while running forward, who puts up his arms to guard against the lasers but the second he put them down, the kaiju hits him twice with its claws, along with a third making sparks fly off Cross-Z's chest.

At the top of the gorge, the CMC come up to the edge struggling as they all carried pulling an unconsious Emerald along.

"She really needs to go on a diet." Scootaloo says getting a disappointed looks from her friends. "What? I'm just say."

"That's still not a nice thing to say to someone who helped us." Sweetie put in a scolding manner.

Apple Bloom walks up to the edge and looks down. "Spike!" Her friends heard her scream out and ran up to see Cross-Z be sent flying back.

Cross-Z stands on to his knee as he sees Hyogakki run up to attack him. "Sho- Ow!" He rubbed his head having felt something hit his head along with the kaiju being wrapped in chains and blasted with blue flames as Ryuga flew by it. "Thanks for the save, Ryuga. Hm? What's this?"

Next to him, he picks up the knuckle weapon Connor had been working on. The handle and bottom part of the weapon was black with a red trigger button on and above the handle. Besides the teeth still being silver, the dragon head was mostly blue like Cross-Z with purple lining the jaw and eyes, along with the eyes and spike fin on the head being green. (Gaburyu Breaker!) It called out as he grabbed on to the handle.

"How do you work this thing?" He looked over the weapon as he spoke before Ryuga pressing itself against the front of the knuckle making a flaming charge sound. Cross-Z gets surprised swinging the weapon as Hyogakki swung its claw at him, trying to hit him. The claw easily gets hit to the side making the kaiju stumble back from the weapon released a burst as the two made contact. "I get the idea now."

He charged the knuckle again as he ran up to the kaiju with it making a growling sound from the charge being done. (Cross Knuckle!) The Weapon announced as he pulled the trigger upper cutting Hyogakki under its jaw sending it flying onto its back. "Yeah! Go, Spike!" The CMC shouted cheering for their friend.

"Quiet!" Hyogakki shouted shooting lasers towards the girls. (Are you ready? Fujimi no heiki!PhoenixRobo! Yeah!) The girls heard as Build came out of the forest with a vermillion flame designed right arm and the left being a gunmetal three fingered mechanical claw arm, with the visor being a robotic claw for the right and the left being flame shaped with a bird shaped in it. On his back was red cape like wings that open up for him to fly, hovering between the girls and the attack. "Another one of you?" It questioned as Build hit the lasers to the side using his claw arm and then send a blast of fire from his other arm that hits Hyogakki into the wall of the gorge making the area shake a bit.

"Try these out, Cross-Z." Build shout as he tossed the new bottles he made. Catching them, he looks the bottles over before looking back up to Build. "Push the top button." Following Build's instructions, he pushes the top button making the mouth slide open with a bottle slot inside. Placing two of the bottles on the holder on the left side of his belt, he shakes and inserts the red dragon bottle. (Ruby Dragon!)

(Devour!) Cross-Z had closed the mouth and charges the weapon again but it makes a crunching sound as Hyogakki got up charging energy into its claws. "I'll freeze you down to the bone!" It fires blue freezing wind towards him as the charge finished, which he pushes the trigger thrusting his fist forward. (Dragonic Roar!) A burst of ruby flames is fired out the weapon that burns through the wind easily with Hyogakki holds back the burst with its claws.

"Next up." Cross-Z says taking out the red bottle, inserting the blue one after shaking it, and follows the same process. (Sapphire Dragon! Devour! Dragonic Sonic!) Instead of firing an attack, he becomes covered in sapphire flames with Hyogakki having withstood the burst. "What's this suppose to do?"

"Let me cool you off." The kaiju fires blue lasers at Cross-Z. The moment the attack is about to hit, he disappears leaving only sapphire embers. "What? We'd he- Uh!" Hyogakki gets surprised as Cross-Z appears in front of him, hitting him with multiple jabs with the weapon around its chest and gut. Hyogakki tries firing its lasers at him in close range, but Cross-Z moves at high speed leaving only embers again while getting behind it.

"Last one." Taking out blue, he uses the green bottle. (Emerald Dragon! Devour!) He charges the knuckle with it finishing the moment Hyogakki turned to face him. (Dragonic Driver!) The kaiju uses its claws to guard as Cross-Z swung the knuckle toward it with spiraling emerald flames covering it. The attack shatters both claws in one strike, sending Hyogakki sliding across the ground.

Cross-Z looks at the knuckle amazed till Ryuga swoops by taking the knuckle with Build then patting his back. "Ready to end this, Kamen Rider Cross-Z." He nods to him as they both look to Hyogakki.

Hyogakki growls standing. "You endangered my home, tried killing me and my friends, and hurt my aunt. Now you'll suffer the fate of those who hurt a dragon's treasure." Cross-Z and Build turn the belts cranks.

"RRRAAAAHHHH" Hyogakki roared sending a freezing wind towards them. (Ready go!) Both belts said with Build jumping towards it as he becomes covered in fire shaped like a phoenix, which lets him easily go through the wind to ram his mechanical arm in the kaiju, fly up into the sky dragging it along with him and leaving it high up in the sky.

Cross-Z jumps high up next to Build leaving them positioned above the kaiju in an angle. As the fire around Build builds up into his left leg, Cross-Z's right leg ignites with blues flames along with the chest armor opening up to give the appearance of wings as green and red flames come out of them to build up with the blue flames.

As Reiji, Twilight and the others arrived to see the scene, Emerald wakes up for a moment seeing Build and Cross-Z. She squints her eyes at the three colored fire of Cross-Z. "Nexus." She barely managed to say softly before falling unconscious with only Discord having heard her. He looked at her and then at Cross-Z with a shocked face.

(VortexFinish!) (Dragonic Finish!) The two went thrusting toward Hyogakki with their kicks impacting into it, staying in place for a second till they went through the kaiju. They landed on their knees in front of everyone with Hyogakki exploding in the sky the moment they stood up.

The last circle in the spell cracks with the spell circle shattering a second after making the veil slowly disappearing. As the veil came undone, they all get surprised by a warp that opens behind the Riders that they turn to face it. Wizard can be seen on the other side staring back at Cross-Z with a light coming out both of them at that moment and go through the warp to one another before it closes.

The group begins to glow while Build looks with his hand holding his chin in thought to where the warp had been with Cross-Z looking at a red fullbottle with the image of a wizard on it. Everypony and Draconequus changes back to normal the next moment, except the two Riders. All the ponies in Ponyville shout and scream cheering with everything having been restored.

"Huh. Guess this means we can change to human form when using the belts." Build said looking at his hand.

"And seems like you found a friend." Reiji said looking at Cross-Z, who he points a hoof at while turning to Build. "Who is he?" Saying this, the two Riders undid their transformations making their suits disappear into colored particles, they stay human for a second before glowing and changing back into a pony and dragon. The mane six gasp seeing Spike was Cross-Z while Reiji smile. "Awesome. Oh. So, that's why you made those gadgets saying just in case."

Connor shrugs. "It was just a hunch since he was able to make the dragon bottle respond. Hm?" He looked at Reiji who was wobbling and almost falls over, but he helps him stay standing. "Woah. What happened to you?"

"Guess combos take more out of me than random medals." Connor looks at him confused. "I'll explain later." As they spoke the CMC ran up to Spike.

"You were amazing, Spike!" Sweetie shouted happily.

Scootaloo swings her hooves around mimicking the fight. "Yeah. You were like pow! Ha! Zoom! Ya!"

Apple Bloom surprises Spike with a hug. "We're also glad you're alright." Her friend join in the hug making him smile as he happily returns the hug. Though their happy moment is cut short when their sisters cough to get their attention.

"Yah mind explainin' ta us why yer all out here?" Applejack asked sternly.

"And don't you even try lying." Rarity added.

The kids were nervous and a bit afraid till they heard Fluttershy gasp, making everyone turn to her as she stood next to Emerald. "Emerald, are you okay? Oh my! You're so cold." She spoke sounding worried as she looked her over. "Discord, could you-" She stopped seeing him already nod.

"On it. One hospital trip coming up. Hold on, everypony. This might tickle." He said to everyone as he snapped his fingers teleporting them out of the forest.

Ponyville Hospital

It had been hours with the moon and stary night now covering the sky with ponies calmly walking the halls of the second floor of the hospital as Nurse Redheart walking out of a room. She turns back to face Reiji who's sitting on a chair on the right side of a bed that Emerald is resting on.

"Make sure to rest up well, Mr. Reiji. I'll be back to check up the two of you later." Redheart informs him.

He nods in response. "Thank you for the help." Redheart nods smiling before leaving down the hall.

Reiji relaxes in his seat as he looks over to the left side of the bed where Spike and the CMC were sleeping bunched up on a couch by the window that Discord had popped in for them to rest on. He remembers how the hospital went into an uproar from them having popped in with no warning.

After a short explanation, they rushed Emerald to a room to be checked and treated on. They were able to fully treat her after Discord offered and gave them his knowledge on dragons. While they had waited, the girls had gotten Spike and the CMC to explain their reason for being in the Everfree, to which led to them being in big trouble aside from their good intentions. But the girls decided to hold off on the punishment till after the celebration and Emerald wakes up.

Everyone had stuck around till they knew Emerald would be okay and decided to head to the celebration. Though Reiji had been forced to stay to rest for the night while Spike and CMC wanted to stay by Emerald's side till she woke up and had fell asleep waiting.

Reiji's attention is then drawn back to Emerald as she begins to wake up groaning. "Hey, take it easy there, Emerald. Everything is alright now. I'm pretty sure you can guess you're in the hospital. How are you feel?"

"That depends, how are the little ones?" She asked holding a hand to her head. She sees him motioning to her left, which she turns to see the kids sleeping. "How long have they-"

"Ever since we got you here." Reiji said cutting her off with a smile. "Twilight and the girls tried convincing them to go along with them to the celebration but refused without a second thought. They really wanted to stay to make sure you'd be alright."

"I see. I'm really sorry for worrying all of you." She said looking down sadly.

Reiji pats her shoulder with his wing while giving her a reassuring smile. "Hey, cheer up. Aside from all that happened, I think you and Spike were able to get a bit of your feels across to each other."

She looks to Spike uncertain. "Would that really be for the best? I still don't think I deserve to be a part of his life after leaving him."

"That part for him to decide since it is his life." Reiji says looking to Spike. "Though I'm pretty sure his actions today tell you his answer to that. Well, I'm getting bored just sitting around." He said making Emerald turn to him as he walked to the door. "I'm gonna ignore the nurse's orders and head to the celebration to get some food. You can't really expect me to recover with an empty stomach." He stops at the door turning to look back at her. "Just try not to hurt the little guy anymore. You two are the only family that the both of you have right now, after all."

Emerald smiles softly to him before looking back to the kids as her tail enlarges to gently pick up the couch to place it next the bed so she can place a wing over them. "I don't ever want to hurt him ever again. I'll do everything in my power to be the aunt he deserved." Reiji smiles and turns leaving out of the room. Emerald gently snuggles her head against Spike. "Little by little, I'll tell you everything, Spike. I promise." She quietly said to him as she went back to resting along with them while keeping her wing over them protectively.

Reiji brings out the pony medals as he walked down the hall. "Why couldn't I use your combo?"

Town Hall

Most of the ponies had gathered in front of Town Hall having started the Summer Sunset Celebration with groups of ponies happily eating pastries and conversing with one another.

As ponies were having fun, Connor was sitting at a table along with Twilight and Fluttershy as they had exchanged what happened on their sides. Though at the moment Applejack and Rarity came up to the table, they took notice of Connor's annoyed face.

"What's the matter, Connor? Are you not like the celebration?" Rarity asked him as they took a seat. He shakes his head making her and Applejack confused.

"Then what's got yah feelin' down?" She asked.

He turns to them. "Twilight here is trying to have me reconsider not going to meet the Princesses to be thanked personally. Which I have no intention of doing." He stated deadpanning at Twilight. Rarity gasps making him groan. "She only invited me. Meaning I have the right to refuse. So, why am I trying to be forced to go?"

"Because this is the princesses we're talking about, dear. You can't just refuse when she wants to thank you personally by taking time off on her busy schedule." Rarity exclaimed only earning her a bored look from him.

"Is there a reason why yah don't want ta go?" Applejack asked curious.

Connor just shrugs. "No real reason. I just don't like standing out when I was just doing what any hero would do. If she wants to thank Build, then she can thank him in the news. As Connor, I'd rather be thanked for something I made in a competition or something to actually be rewarded in."

This makes the girls laugh a bit. "Where were yah when Dash needed some modesty?"

"Hey!" Rainbow shouts landing next to the table. "I learned my lesson during that time."

"Sure, you did. 'We believe you' completely." Discord quoted sarcastically as he had popped in between Twilight and Fluttershy dressed as a judge making puppy dog eyes at her. Rainbow glares at him for a second before laughing.

Rainbow flies up next to him and playfully punches his shoulder. "You're alright, Discord. I mean I don't trust you still but you're alright enough to give this friendship a try. Right, Pinkie?" Pinkie comes popping her head out of flower vase on their table scaring half of them to death.

"I thought we were already friends." Pinkie said confused before shrugging the thought. "But imagine all the fun we could all have now. Like making super extra special terrific hilarious pranks, random games we could create, or maybe even having a chocolate rain day." Saying this, she presses her forehead against Discord's glaring at him. "But no leaving out the whip cream this time." They all laugh at Discord trying to back up with Pinkie following him perfectly.

"Besides, I have something I want to get started working on." He said levitated three different looking types of bottles and a silver spout bag-like looking object with a dragon head image on it.

Twilight took them with her magic to look at them along with her friends. "What are these? This one looks the same as yours but burnt up while these other ones are different."

"This is the dragon magma bottle. As for the other two, they're the dragon evolu bottle and dragon sclachjelly. From what Spike and the girls told me, I'm guessing the Cross-Z who gave him his belt also passed these on for him to use." The took the items back at the end. "Though, I'm going to need to adapt these in a way for Spike to be able to use since they each required something to use. Well, not until he's ready at least. Using them now so early could be dangerous for him."

"But what would Spike need these things for anyway?" Rainbow asked to which Connor goes quiet making everyone feel a bit worried.

"Connor, what would he need them for?" Twilight tries pressing the question.

He sighs looking to them. "Look after what happened today, I think the danger in both our worlds have grown. If those kaiju weren't the only Sentai kaiju here, then Spike's going to need these to stand a chance. We'll back him up and help make him stronger of course but...I'm just worried about the worlds chances if we aren't able to get stronger as well." Saying this makes him almost think he felt an ominous wind as he looked up to the moon.

Far Away From Equestria

In the middle of the ocean was a huge island full of vegetation and wildlife. Most of the animals were all asleep till they all shot awake and began running as a loud roar echoed around shaking the whole land.

To Be Continued

Chapter 7- Rejoice! The Lord of Time Arrives

Author's Note

Okay in the last chapter I forgot to mention the mechanics of OOO weapons. So, I'd like to do that now before I forget.

It was more of a way to avoid me than you forgetting, if you ask me.

Discord? What are you doing here?

I did say I was going to have a word with you in the last chapter, didn't I? What? Did you think you wrote that part too?

Well...kind of. I am the writer of this story.

And I'm the Spirit of Chaos that can interact with you writers at random when I please. And this is one of them. Now how about we talk about the humiliation you put me through.

What do you want from me? I just wrote what the kaiju's plan was. Did you really expect me to put they'd risk their plan by going to kidnap the princesses and let their plan be know early. Of course taking you along with the girls was the best course of action so you couldn't warn or try to save the girls.

I still wish to be compensated in some way.

Like what? Um...Why are you looking at me like that? *Gets thrown out of the room.* Hey, Discord! Come on! Unlock the door.

Don't worry everyone, I'm just taking over the weapon explanation since I have a spa appointment with Fluttershy soon. Now then, let's begin.

First off is the toy gun the geek wrote. All it's made for is to use the silver coins in 3 different shots which the write named the Cell Shot, Scatter Cell, and Cell Core. While the creatures of the colored coins are used in a charged shot separate or used in their sets to be shot out in a mushed shot.

And the stick- I mean sword does about the same thing as the gun with a bit of a difference. But I think that'd be better off to be read in later chapters. And with that, that's about it. They could be better with some chaos, but oh well I suppose.

Now then, I have a spa day to get to. Pranks to be pulled. An apple to dress up. And my most favorite, a librarian bookworm in need of a good tormenting. So, I bid you all fare well. *Disappears with the door unlocking itself*

Discord? Where'd you go? Hm? Oh, come on, Discord! Couldn't you at least do this properly or at least add the names of the weapons. *Tries deleting and retyping it.* I can't even delete or add anything to this?

*Sighs* Fine. I've got to get started on the chapter anyways. Hope you all are fine with this explanation.

Chapter 7- Rejoice! The Lord of Time Arrives

The Dark Realm

Minutes after the Riders had been separated into three groups, Molten was standing in the middle of the realm surrounded by crystals trying to activate the unicorn Progrise key in the Raidriser.

"Why won't this damn thing work!" He shouted furiously pressing the activation button.

"Seems like the key considers you unworthy." Molten turns hearing this to see Brutus standing behind him. "It's to be expected from a power created from a soul. Being part alive, it has the will to aid or reject you."

Hearing a chuckle, they look to their left to see Scarlet leaning against a slanted crystal pillar. "If you ask me, I'd say he's just too pathetic to use it. Considering the amount of times you've failed the master."

"Quiet!" Molten shouted turning to face her. "I'm not the only one who's failed."

Scarlet clenches her fist just at the mention of her defeat when she fought Jurassic. "I would've destroyed him if it wasn't for that damn weapon of his."

She fills with anger and frustration remembering how she hand the upper hand on them at first but then for Jurassic to defeat her using his sword.

Molten scoffs grinning. "If all it took was for a Rider to have a weapon, then you're more pathetic than you look." He said enraging her.

The two were readying to attack each other. But they froze in place the moment they ran towards each other, feeling a chill run down their back before Reaper appeared out of nowhere walking in between the two.

"It matters not which of you is pathetic. What matters is if the master still finds you useful." Reaper spoke in a distorted dark tone. "Scarlet, are to meet me in London at midnight. Do not make me wait." Reaper then sinks into the shadow under him.

The two panted from having held their breathes. Their bodies felt like they had completely frozen solid just from Reaper merely having his presence known before having had appeared in front of them.

Brutus chuckles. "You better hope you succeed, Scarlet. You know Reaper is the master's right hand. Meaning if he wants to punish you, the master will be more than willing to approve."

Scarlet watched as Brutus walks past them leaving. She then slams her fist into the ground out of frustration and fear. Molten stared at her for a second before standing up and left out of the realm, reappearing on top the mall's roof.

"I have no time to deal with cowards." He pulls out the unicorn Progrisekey. "I'll master this power and then I'll finally be able to defeat you, Zero-One."

Japan

Deep within a forest known as Aokigahara, temple ruins are hidden by many trees having grown around what looks like a sinkhole that the temple had become the victim of. The outer ring of the temple was completely destroyed but the center of it had barely managed to survive.

Inside the ruins, two kaiju walked through the empty damaged halls. One is a black and gold bird looking kaiju with three fingers, beaks where its eyes should be and a cane. The other is a black and silver canine kaiju with a red cape and hat, wielding a curved bladed sword. These two are the Crow and Wolf Imagins.

Wolf Imagin looked around growling before stomping the ground, making the hall shake a bit and then gets hit by Crow Imagin. "Fool! Are you trying to being this damn place down on us?"

Wolf Imagin growled. "We've been searching for hours! At this rate we'll never find it."

"The master said it'd be hidden within this temple." Crow Imagin said looking around. Meaning it won't be easy to find."

"And how long are we supposed to look?" Wolf Imagin made a fist. "I'm already sick of this damn place! It's like a damn fuckin' maze!"

He was about to hit the wall, but the building began to shake from the walls sinking into the floor, revealing many others doing the same around them till it's only them and a teenage boy standing on top of a huge statue a couple of feet away from them. The Imagin and teen were staring at each other.

The huge statue is a turtle with katakana writing going all around the shell. While the teenager has light brown skin with brown hair and blue eyes, wearing a white outdoor long sleeve shirt, light brown pants, brown work boots, a light brown cloak, multi-color scarf with an hourglass pin on it, and goggles. The kaiju can see he had taken shield off the turtle's head, along with something else that he quickly hides in his pants pocket.

Crow takes notice of the shield. "Boy, if you know what's good for you, you'll hand over that shield."

"Or we can do it the hard way and I get to split you in half." Wolf stated maniacally creating a curved crescent sword.

"This doesn't seem to be a good situation for me." The teen said to himself. "Sorry, but I'm sure hand this over to you two would be very bad." His eyes go wide after glowing for a second.

Wolf darkly chuckles. "Here's our counter offer." The Imagin launches crescent energy beam towards the teen.

The teen quickly avoids the attack by jumping and using the shield to slide down the statue as the beam explodes hitting the ceiling, causing the whole building to start collapsing.

"You fool!" Crow shouted as pieces of the ceiling fell down on the two Imagin.

While the two were buried under rubble, the boy managed to slide most of the way to the exit by avoiding the daubery in split second decisions and runs the rest of the way through avoiding the bits of ceiling.

"Don't look back! Don't look back! Don't look back!" He kept repeatedly shouting as he sped down the halls of the temple and manages to barely escape out of the temple as it completely collapses. "I...should r-really...run more...often." Trying to regain his breath but gets startled hearing and looking back towards the rubble, seeing it shake a bit. "Which I should do now."

The boy runs towards a wall to his left, where a rope is hanging in place. He moves as fast as he can out the sinkhole climbing up the rope, but as he climbed out, a tunnel of light appears in a part of the sky above him.

"What? Ah!" Before he could move away, three people came falling out of the tunnel and onto him. "Today just doesn't seem to be agreeing with me at all."

"Turner?" He looks behind himself to find Derpy, Discord and Ressha. "Turner!" Derpy shouted jumping onto Turner as he was about to stand rubbing his head but gasps for air from her putting him into a bear crushing hug. "It's so great to see you."

Prying free, Turner looks at her confused. "Derpy? How- Where'd you-"

"Before you continue, would you mind getting off us, Derpy?" An annoyed Discord asked politely making her quickly hop off them. As the two dusted themselves off, he taps his chin. "Turner? Hm...why do I feel like I've heard that before."

"Wait. Wasn't Turner the name of the friend you talked about coming back from a des...ert soon?" Ressha comes to a realization. 'Oh great! What are we dealing with today? A treasure hunt? A rescue? More kaiju?/Maybe it's all of those./It better not be. I don't have the patience for that.'

Derpy nods holding her hand out to Turner. "Yup. This is my best friend Time Turner." She then looks to Turner holding her hand to the others. "Turner, these are two of my new friends Discord and Ressha."

Turner nods standing up. "Yes. Yes. It's nice to meet you two but I suggest we run while we have the chance." He motioned behind himself.

Derpy and the guys give him confused looks. "Why? What's-" She gets cut off as black feathers are launched down towards them.

Turner quickly shields her as the feathers struck the ground and exploded. The four fall back again as Crow lands in front of them with black feathered wings that retrack into his back.

"I believe that shield belongs to us." The Imagin points his cane at them. "Hand it over and we may end your lives quickly."

As the group quickly got up, Wolf comes jumping out of the sinkhole, landing a few feet behind them. "I say we should just kill them all and be done with this."

"Kaiju!? Why are they here?" Derpy said looking back and forth between the two Imagins.

Turner's eyes glow for a second again. "Look out!"

A second as the two Imagins launch their attacks towards them, Turner grabs Derpy and jumps to the side along with the others going down a steep hill to avoid the attacks. Discord and Ressha are able to keep themselves from rolling down the hill, putting on their belts while Turner holding Derpy close rolled all the way down the hill.

"Henshin!" The two shouted activating their transformation. (Kamen Rider! Decade!) (Sword Form!) Turner looks up in time along with Derpy to see her two friends transform which leaves him speechless.

The Imagins look down in time to see Decade and Den-o, as their transformations finished, standing between them and the shield. "Den-o? And Decade?" Wolf shouted surprised.

Crow chuckles amused. "So, you brats are two of the Riders. Should've known you two would show up."

Decade crosses his arms and leans against a tree next to him. "Not really sure what this is about, but it's definitely nothing good if you're involved." Derpy takes notice of him shooing them away while his hand was hidden from the Imagins sight.

"Come on, Turner." She said taking ahold of his free hand and has him run away with her.

"Hey! Get back here!" Wolf shouted to the two before jumping over the Riders to run after the two but is stop by Decade shooting in front of the Imagin using the Ride Booker in gun mode.

Wolf looks back in time for Deo-o ram him into a tree. "Don't ignore us! Ah!" He quickly jumps back avoiding Wolf's sword. "Two can play that game." Den-o had said while putting the Dengasher into sword mode.

Crow watched as the two began clashing swords as they fought before looking back to Decade. "Seems you'll be facing me. Let's see if you're any good as the original Decade." The Imagin sprouted wings again and shot up into the sky making his way towards Derpy and Turner. Try to keep up, boy.

"That's simple to do. Time to see what original Decade left me can do." Decade take out a couple of the blank cards he had gotten. They glowed changing into different Build cards. (Kamen Ride! Build! Hagane nomoonsault!RabbitTank!) His belt announced mimicking the sounds and transformation of Build's and then takes out another card. "Build up."

(Form Ride! Build HawkGatling!) Decade's Build form changes into an orange and gray colored version. The orange side has bird wing shaped right shoulder pad and chest, along with wings on the back, and the left visor being shaped like a hawk. The gray side has a row of bullets going across the other part of the chest, metal gun parts as the shoulder pad and on the left arm, with the visor in the shape of a gatling gun.

Now with wings, Decade flies after Crow, catching up in seconds. "Seems you got yourself some wings. Let's see if you're any good at using them." The bird Imagin spoke out loud seeing Decade from the corner of his eyes.

Crow turns to fire feathers at the Rider. "You really want to play the pest part well." Decade maneuvered through the feathers, summons an orange and black gatling handgun from his belt, known as the Hawk Gatlinger and shoots the feathers down with a barrage of orange energy bullets.

"Now that's definitely something you don't see every day." Turner said while taking a moment to barely see the Rider and kaiju exchange attacks while avoiding them at the same time through the openings in the branches. "Who exactly are these friends of yours, Derpy?" He asked looking back in time to avoid a tree he almost ran into.

"They're those heroes I told you about in my last letter." Derpy smiled saying running around some bushes. "They're the Kamen Riders."

[Cue Opening]

Back Near the Sinkhole

Den-o and Wolf's battle continued as the two landed slashes, hitting each other and stumbling back. "Damn, Riders. Can't you ever just stay out of our business." Wolf shouts angrily charging and swinging his sword at Den-o.

The Rider ducks under the swing and then brings his own sword up in time to block, stopping the Imagin's sword who swung it at him again. "Like I give a damn about that, fleabag." He said grabbing onto Wolf with his other hand and makes the Imagin slam their heads together before drop kicking Wolf back. "What I care about is beating the hell out of you for ruining my day."

Den-o runs up to Wolf while he stood up still trying to recover, gets two slashes in before needing to jump back to avoid the Imagin's sword. The two then both slashed each other across the chest as they moved past one another and quickly turn punching each other, causing them to fly back a few feet.

"How about trying this on for size, Den-o." Wolf launches the crescent beams at the Rider, who rolls out of the way of the first couple. "What's the matter, Rider? Too much for you to handle?"

Den-o scoffs smiling under his helmet while taking out his pass. "Not even close." 'Momo, what are you doing?' "Just shut up and watch. Let's go! Let's go!" (Full Charge!) Running the pass over the belt, Den-o charges forward.

Wolf gets surprised as Den-o willing ran into the beams with sparks fly off his body but keeps charging towards him with red energy going from the belt to the Dengasher's blade.

"Now for my special move." Den-o declared as he got close with Wolf about to strike. "Dash Version!" He shouts out swinging his sword.

The Imagin's sword gets broken in half the moment they clashed. "GAH!!" Wolf screamed out as Den-o's sword struck him across the chest, making the Imagin fly through a couple trees with sparks flying off him and trees falling on top of him.

Den-o stares at the pile till Wolf bursts out of them, clenching a hand over his chest with sand falling out of his wound. "We'll finish this next time Den-o." Wolf gets covered in darkness and disappears.

"Heh. That takes care of one annoyance." Den-o happily said laying his sword on his shoulder. 'Took you long enough.' "Shut the hell up! You would've taken longer than me to beat that mutt." 'We don't have time to argue. The others might need our help.' "Yeah. Yeah. I'm on it. We'll settle this later, Gri- Ugh."

Den-o ran a couple steps before coming to a sudden stop with his visor turning blue for a second. 'Momo? What's wrong?' He doesn't answer and just chuckles softly with his eyes turning to blue from under the helmet.

Back in the Sky

"Gah!" Crow painfully grunted from a couple shots having hit his back. "Damn you, Decade!" The Imagin angrily shouted before resuming launching his feathers.

Their sky battle had been even for a while till Decade had started getting the upper at one point. Crow tried getting close at some points, but Decade had done well on keeping the distance between them.

"I think we've danced long enough." Decade said as he began to spin the revolver of the Hawk Gatlinger while avoiding the feathers. (10! 20! 30! 40! 50! 60! 70! 80! 90! 100! Full Bullet!) The weapon announced with a white spherical energy graph surrounding Crow.

"What?!" Crow tries breaking out of the sphere but his hits aren't doing much damage. Decade then pulls the trigger, while flying circles around the Imagin, firing out a barrage a total of a hundred orange energy hawks flying hitting Crow from all directions. "RAH!!"

Decade watched as Crow exploded after the last hawk hit. "And here I thought we could flock together." He said after having caught a feather.

Within the Woods

"What was that?" Derpy had gotten startled by the echo from the explosion caused by Decade destroying the Crow Imagin. The two had managed to get a good distance between them and the fighting. "Oh, I really hope Discord and Reiji are alright."

Turner places a hand on her shoulder. "I may not know your friends, but they seem really reliable. I'm sure they're fine." The two smile warmly to each other for a moment till his eyes glowed again. "Derpy, get down!"

Grabbing her and throwing themselves down onto the floor in time to avoid an aqua wave-like slash that passes over them and cutting through over a dozen trees behind them. They look to the trees to see them topple over and then turn to face their attacker which shocks them.

Standing a few feet in front of them is a three colored Kamen Rider like OOO but the driver is round with three medals going in a diagonal around each other and the chest having a triangle shape instead of a circle. The back of the head is in the shape of a light blue shark with the visor eyes being yellow, the arms being a dark blue with a whale head on the right shoulder pad and the left being the tail, and the legs having a dark red armor with a fin design on the waist and foot.

"Hand the shield over now, boy." The Rider said in a female voice pointing a spear with a dark red fin design on it matching the legs. "You fools don't understand the power you're holding."

"I take it, this one isn't a friend of yours." Turner whispered to Derpy while they kept their eyes on the Rider.

She shakes her head "No. But they have medals that belong to another friend of mine." The Rider hears her despite whispering and charges at them. Turner reacts quick enough to use the shield to block the spear but then gets hit to the side. "Turner! AAH!" Derpy screamed as the Rider grabbed and pinned her to a tree.

"Where are the Core Medals you speak of, girl?" The Rider demanded in a threatening voice, holding the spear's blade against Derpy's neck. "These powers rightfully belong to my family."

Derpy was gasping for air as the Rider tightened her grip a bit, but she was still able to say a couple words. "No. I...won't...tell you...anything."

Filling with anger, the Rider positions the spear in front of Derpy's stomach. "Maybe a little pain will change your mind- What?!"

The Rider gets surprised as a hook and string, made of blue energy, wrapped around her spear and gets tugged into getting hit by something made of blue energy. Rolling back a few feet, the Rider looks back to see the hook reel itself back into a rod made of blue energy with Ressha leaning against it.

"Ressha?" Derpy asked in a questioning voice after having regained her breath. She sees his hair is combed back neatly with his strand of hair now being blue. He turns to hold out his hand to her, with Turner running to their side. "Who are you?"

"Can't really say. I haven't been given a name yet." He said while helping her up and Turner giving him a questioning look as well.

The Rider was about to attack them but takes notice of Ressha's driver. "That's- Den-o?"

Ressha points behind the Rider smiling. "And-"

(Final Attack Ride! D-D-D-Decade!) The Rider turns around too late, getting hit square in the chest by Decade coming in with a kick and sending her flying with his friends moving aside as she passed them.

"Decade, please get us out of here." Derpy pleaded as he ran up next to them.

Decade doesn't waste any time snapping his fingers making a silver veil pass through them, with them disappearing into it. The Rider quickly got back up and looked around, not finding them anywhere.

"Den-o and Decade? I must get back and let grandfather know about this." The Rider said to herself before bringing out an orb that glows opening a portal that she then walks into it, with the portal then closing after she went in.

In the African Rainforest

The others found themselves sitting around a campfire, roasting marshmallows with Decade having a metal pot tied to a fishing pole filled with gumballs that pop into popcorn and cotton candy.

Ressha looks around them seeing huge trees, plants and the sounds of wildlife in the distance. "Now this place doesn't really suit my taste. I'll leave the rest to you three." The blue Ressha said to himself before having Ressha take back over and Decade undoing his transformation. "Discord? Where are we?"

"Somewhere in the rainforest." He answered with a shrug. "Where in the rainforest? Who knows. Doesn't really matter. I think we have more important things to talk about. The only question is, which one should we start with?" He asks looking to Turnner. "Maybe the watch first."

Confused by this at first, the others get surprised as the shield glows and turns into a gray colored round watch-looking object with the year '2018' at the bottom while the top having a symbol that reads 'Kaman' in katakana.

He begins looking it over. "Intriguing. I knew the material the shield was made of seemed unusual, but this was beyond anything I could've imagined. But what is this? Why was it disguised itself as a shield? And how was it able restructure itself like this? Hm?" Turner notices the front can be rotated and turns it for the front to know seem to have what looks like a face with the katakana writing for 'Rider' as the visor, along with the same symbol on the forehead. "Rider?"

"Wait! What?!" Ressha and Derpy shouted surprised as they got on both sides of Turner.

"I thought so." Discord said sounding annoyed as he takes out his version of the Primal Cell with salmon colored barcode look on the back along with the color outlining the edges. He has it scan the watch which has it look through data till it stops at one filed as 'Kamen Rider Zi-O'. "It's the Zi-O Ridewatch. It's what Zi-O uses to transform into his base form.

"The Rider who became the king of time by inheriting the powers of all the Riders." Ressha having read the same file on his Primal Cell and raises an eyebrow. "When it says he inherited the powers-"

"It means the Riders gave him their powers and could no longer transform. Guess that's the reason the kaiju are after the power." Discord takes a guess while putting away his phone. "Meaning if they find a way to alter it, they could probably just take the powers right out of us."

Turner clears his throat turning everyone's attention to him. "Before we continue this informative conversation, can someone tell me what exactly is going on? You all seem to be used to those creatures. Including you, Derpy." He ends looking to her.

The three stare at each other before Derpy looks back letting out an exhausted sigh, then smiles to him. "It's a good thing we're sitting already. Because this story might take a while."

"Well, my good friend, I'm all ears." Turner says getting comfortable in his seat.

Discord snaps his fingers making a book appear. "This whole mess started a long time ago."

The Empty Quarter Desert

Ruins of a palace can be seen in the middle of the desert with a crumbling stone wall going around it, small parts of the building having cracks and holes, and 22 pillars lined up, that are on both sides of a broken stone path leading to the entrance, with bits of them broken.

Five tents were set up close to the entrance with Humagears armed with rifles stationed at each tent. Everything was quiet till a bright flash came from inside the ruins.

"Ugh!" The Wolf Imagin slid across the floor till it crashed against a wall. "Please wait, Lord Tirek! Let me explain!" The Imagin pleaded standing up.

A tall tanned muscular middle-aged looking man with black hair and white medium beard, wearing a black shirt, pants and shoes. "Quiet! How could you let someone get away with the shield!? Or how you failed to capture one measly boy? Even with all that failure, you still dared to return empty handed."

"But it wasn't just the boy. There were others that helped him." The Imagin informed Tirek as he walked away from it but stopped after hearing this.

"Help? From whom?" He shouted grabbing the Imagin with one hand and lifted it up with ease. "I can't have anyone from Equestria knowing of my plans. Especially those cursed princesses that could ruin this before I get a chance to attack."

"I'm not sure. All I know is that they were Kamen Riders." Wolf answered tapping its chin in thought. "But they will be trouble. Kamen Riders always are."

"This is not surprising." The two look towards the voice to see Reaper walking up to them from the entrance. "They must've been summoned here to protect Zi-O's power. Meaning you have nothing to fear, Tirek." Reaper reassured him stopping next to them. "Your search for the map is safe for the moment. As for us, we'll take our leave."

Reaper swung his cloak wrapping around themselves and Wolf, making the two disappear along with it as it sunk into the shadows around them.

Tirek scoffed as they disappeared. "You may think the power of those Riders is more important, but once I find the lost item, using this map, I'll be able to find and take a magic more powerful than even those of the princesses combined." He said before looking forward to walk down the hall. "Then, Equestria will be completely mine to reshape any way I please."

The Rain Forest

"And that's pretty much the whole story." Derpy finishes saying.

She and the others had been telling Turner the events of the Fall Formal, the attacks caused by Molten and Scarlet, and the kaijus that were created when they used her.

By the time they were done, the sun had begun to set with the four still around the campfire as Turner paced back and forth processing everything he had been told.

"That's completely..." Derpy worries he doesn't believe them as he paused. "Extraordinary! To think that multiple worlds really do exist. I must look into it the moment we're back home. Imagine the endless possibilities that these worlds could hold. Especially, from how these Riders sent their powers traveling across worlds and dimensions to our own." He was looking at the Rider Watch.

"Y-You believe us?" Derpy asked getting his attention.

"Of course. It'd be hard not to believe after all we went through today and would explain how you got here with your friends." Turner pointed out. "Besides I know you'd never lie to me. Especially about something like this. We've been through so much over the years as friends. You have my complete trust."

Feeling touched, Derpy got up and threw herself into Turner as she brought him into a big hug. "Thank you, Turner. You're the most, greatest best friend anyone could ask for."

He smiled returning the hug. "The same can be said about you, my friend."

They continued the hug till the sound of the piano version of Pachelbel began playing around them. Breaking the hug, they find themselves inside an empty small chapel full of beautiful flowers decorating the walls, with Ressha trying to pry his hands away from piano keys as they played the music, and Discord was next to them dressed as a priest.

Discord clears his throat opening a book. "Ladies and gentleman, we are gathered here today to-"

"DISCORD!!" Derpy and Turner shout at him blushing. They look back to each other feeling both embarrassed and nervous from how close they are to each other and quickly scooted apart.

He playfully scoffs grinning. "Please, I'm just helping speed things along. By the time you make a move, you'll both be in a retirement home." Ressha finally manages to pry himself free while Discord spoke and checks to see if his fingers are still in one piece as he walked over to the group. "So, I believe what you want to say is-"

"Before we get even more off topic," Ressha spoke interrupting Discord. "do you mind telling us what exactly happened with you winding-up running from kaiju, Turner?" Derpy sighs in relief seeing Turner's train of thought quickly switch back to the topic.

"Oh yes. Of course. Um...do you mind, Discord?" He asks, which Discord responds with a shrug.

He snaps his finger making the things around them disappear and they find themselves standing next to the campfire. Turner seems to want to ask something but shakes his head dismissing the thought as he walks to take a seat next to the fire with the others doing the same.

Turner clears his throat before speaking. "You see, this all started when my grandfather and his excavation team uncovered a palace left in ruin under the sand. It seemed to have been left buried to just be lost and forgotten over the centuries for someone to discover it at some point."

"What do you mean by that?" Ressha asked.

"Well, before my grandfather and his team could begin digging up the ruins, all the sand had been cleared from the ruins completely the next morning. Almost as if something had cleared it for us." Saying this caught Discord's attention. "As they studied the ruins, my grandfather found that the material the palace was made of didn't match the timeline. When my grandfather told me this, I just knew I had to come here to study it myself."

Turner pulls out the watch. "Our research was going great till- Derpy, you remember what I said in my last letter?" He said looking to her.

"Yeah, I remember. I even have the letter with me." She said nodding before pulling the letter out of her pocket to look over it. "You mentioned about the floor in the throne room looking strange along with having something written going in a circle."

"That's right. At first, I couldn't make out what the writing was trying to say but then I found a clue." Turner grabbed a stick saying this and began writing. "The clue I found had number that seemed to be the coordinates for a location. So after finding out it led to a forest in Japan, I convinced my grandfather to let me travel to the forest and began my search till it led me to the temple."

Turner pauses for the three to read what he wrote. 'Only when the arms have aligned with the key, can the two times synchronize for the gate to open for the trial to begin. Only then, will the lord of time to awaken.'

The three had read outload with Derpy looking confused at it and then looks to Turner. "What does it mean?"

"I can't really say without knowing more."

While Derpy looks at the writing confused, Ressha tapped his chin in thought. "Also, why is Zi-O's power different from ours?" 'Maybe the king thought his power deserved a royal treatment.' "But ours awoke when we proved ourselves. So, why is Zi-O's where anyone could take it? It just doesn't make sense." 'Maybe Zi-o wanted his power to be won like a game.' "A game? Why do you- Oh, that's right. We still need to come up with a name for you."

"What arms and key is it talking about, Turner?" Derpy asked as Discord and Ressha began coming up with names behind them.

"It's most likely referring to these." He says pulling out a photo to show them. The three look to see it's a photo of two thrones with one having the imprint of a sword in the seat while the other has an imprint of a staff. "From what my grandfather was able to learn, the rulers of the palace always kept these within arm's reach. Which would mean..."

"Which would probably make those the Arms." Ressha finished saying for him. "But where are the staff and sword now? Are they back somewhere in those ruins you were just at?"

Turner shakes his head. "Nope. And trust me, I searched that whole place for hours. Especially since it was made to be a maze for when it sunk down."

Ressha raised a brow at what he just heard. "For when it sunk down? So, that place was built with the idea of it sinking?"

"Yes, precisely. The whole building was designed to withstand the fall into the sinkhole so that the inside would still be able to be accessed by anyone wanting to reach the Ride Watch." Turner looks at the watch. "They really wanted to test anyone who entered. Oh that reminds me, do these belong to one of your friends?"

Turner reaches into his back pocket and pulls two Fullbottles. One is a green with the image of a turtle and the other is a gray bottle with a wristwatch image on it.

"Those are what our friend Connor uses to fight with." Derpy said surprised as she was handed them. "Where'd you find these?"

"They were sealed along with the shield. Not really sure how or why they were sealed along with it."

Ressha sighs. "That just adds more confusion to this day. First to being sent to that forest. Second, Zi-O's power having to be awakened differently from us. And third, was that Rider that attacked you for the shield. Hm...I wonder if Connor added anything in the Primal Cells that can give us a clue on them."

"That was Kamen Rider Poseidon."

Everyone's attention turns to Discord showing the file on his Primal Cell.

"How'd you find it so fast?" Ressha asked while entering the name into his to show Derpy and Turner.

"It's easy when you know what medals that Rider used. Now let's see what we have here. A belt that was created in a future timeline of OOO. The user got taken control of by a Greeed. Was defeated by OOO and a Rider called Aqua." Discord read parts and shrugs. "Okay. So, an evil Rider. Oh well. We should just focus on finding the Arms."

"But how will we-" Derpy spoke till Discord coughed.

"Don't you two remember? We have a way of tracking them down." He watched as Derpy and Ressha thought it over for a second before realizing what he means. "Zea!" He shouted with his two friends. "Exactly. We inform Zea what we're looking for and maybe it can help us find them."

"Can Zea actually find them?" Turner asked hopefully as Discord was typing a text to Orbital.

He shrugs. "Beats me. I hardly know the thing. All we can do is wait and see." Discord ends sending the message along with a copy of the picture. "Well, I suggest we all just kick back and relax in the meantime." He summons two small trees with a hammock tied between them. As he lays himself down, he makes a purple book appear with heart in the middle with a lock that he easily unlocks. "Let's see if Rarity has added any new guys to her diary."

Derpy frowns at him. "Discord, it's very rude to read someone's diary. Send it back to her room right this instant." He just smirks at her before continuing to read. She sighs in defeat. "And here I thought we were good friends." She looks to her right to Turner who places his hand on her shoulder giving her a kind smile.

"Maybe we should follow his lead. This day has been eventful." She smiled following him to sit next to the fire. "If you don't mind, I'd like to hear about what else I've missed the last 2 months since I've been gone? Besides all the hero work, I mean."

She brightens up at this. "Oh, that's right. You've really missed out on a lot since you left. You would not believe half the things that has happened. Like the baking I've done at the cafe, a new store opened in the mall, your new lab-"

"New lab?!" Derpy quickly covered her mouth as he shouted shocked. "What happened to my old lab?"

"That was probably my fault." She answers twiddling her fingers together. "You see before the guys transferred to our school, I might've, probably gotten on Molten and Sunset's bad side when I accidently tripped and dropped my lunch onto them."

Discord chuckles. "Knowing that hotheaded magma, he didn't take it well."

She looks down nodding sadly. "Molten said he was going to make me pay when I'd least expect it. Then without warning, your lab at home was burnt down, along with everything in it. They were never able to find what started the fire."

"Having been able to transform into a fire kaiju at the time, Molten must've done it himself to not leave any trances." Discord added while tossing the diary away.

Ressha taps his chin looking unconvinced. "But would that be something he'd actually do? I mean unlike everyone else in CHS, we didn't know much about him or how he thinks." 'Sure. Defend the psycho who tried to roast us./But he does have a point. How can we judge an enemy without knowing what they'd actually do?'

"I wasn't really sure at the time either. But during the next day after that, Sunset came up to me saying that I should consider myself lucky that I got off easy." She looks to the fire. "Then she just left the second after saying that."

Turner makes a confused look. "She just left? She didn't try gloating or torturing you in some way?" She shakes her head. "That's strange. She usually likes to gloat before moving on."

"AHA!" Discord shouted shooting to his feet. "I knew something must've caused Molten's control over Sunset to weaken."

"What do you mean?" Ressha asked.

Discord changes his clothes into a Sherlock Hoomes look. "Elementary my dear Ressha. I found it strange that Sunset had already been showing signs of the control on her weakening." He explains while blowing bubbles out of his smoke pipe. "Usually there's a point or event that should cause the grip on someone to weaken. My guess is that Molten wanted to do something horrible to Derpy that caused the good in Sunset to surface a bit by convincing Molten to take a different course of action."

"So, you mean when she went to talk to Derpy, it was actually an excuse to see if she was alright?"

"Precisely, my dear Ressha." Discord says happily along with blowing bubbles into his face.

Turner taps his chin in thought. "If this Core Medal was the cause of most of Sunset's horrible behavior, it would make sense that her true self could've breached the control if there was a line she absolutely didn't want to cross."

"So, she kept Molten from hurting me?" Derpy asked softly surprised.

"If our theory is correct, then yes." He smiles to her. "Guess we'll have to thank her the moment we get back."

She returns the smile. "I'll bake her muffins as my way of saying thanks." The two laugh together making Ressha and Discord, looking from the corner of their eyes, smiling at the sight.

As it became night, the group continued to converse and exchange stories but after a while, they decided to call it a night and get some rest using tents with sleeping bags inside. But Derpy and Turner ended up having to stop Momo from fighting with Discord, being upset that Discord made his tent out of sticks with a nest as his bed and a large leaf as the blanket.

London

Inside of the Big Ben clock tower, Reaper and the Imagin standing next to Big Ben's fenced bell waiting for someone to arrive.

"I'm here, oh Great Reaper." Scarlet sarcastically said walking through the door leading to the stairs. "You better have a good damn reason transporting me at the bottom floor and making me walk all the way up he- ."

Scarlet is cut off as a blood red aura shuts her mouth, restrains her arms and legs together before it drags her up to them. A claw made of the same aura came out from under Reaper's cloak to grab her by her throat, lifting her up in a tight grip.

"Silence!" Shouts in a distorted voice. "I have no time for your blabbering. Despite my advice, the master has decided to leave you in charge of recovering the Arms." Reaper releases Scarlet, making her gasp for air as she dropped to the ground. "You better not fail to capture Zi-O's power."

Scarlet stands after recovering from the choke. "If it's the master's wish, then I will succeed in taking the power."

She reacts quickly to Reaper tossing three items to her. She opens her hands to find a Primal Core, an Astro Switch with the number 33 on it and a case with cards in it.

"For your sake, griffon, you better not." Reaper said passing by her. "Or else if you do, the master has giving me permission to use you as part of my experiments."

Though she looks angry from hearing this, her eyes are filled with fear as she turned to argue with Reaper but sees that they had already disappeared into the shadows.

"What should we do first?" The Imagin asked walking up next to her.

"The answer should be obvious." She said shoving the Astro switch into the Imagin's hand before walking back down the stairs. "Find the Arms and destroy anything or anyone who gets in your way." Scarlet spoke to the 4 cards she pulled out of the case getting out of Big Ben after transferring magic into them and then throws them into the sky, letting them fly off into four different directions.

The River Thames

It was the middle of the morning as a silver veil appeared under London Bridge with Discord and the group coming out through it on motorboat. While Discord steered the boat down the river, Derpy and Turner were huddled next to Ressha looking over information that Zea had sent them that morning.

"From what Zea was able to find, the arms should be here in London." Ressha spoke as he continued to look over the information. "Supposably, a man by the name Dr. Caballeron was the one who stole the Arms with his men and brought it here to be sold to some collector who offered him the most for them."

"How much exactly are we talking about?" Discord curiously asked. He and Ressha looked at the phone and whistled having seen the amount. "What person would be crazy enough to waste so much on these pieces of rust?"

Ressha shrugs. "Beats me." 'Yeah. Imagine all the food you could get with that amount./Or work out gear./I'd rather buy things to relax.'

Turner takes the phone to continue. "From what it says, they were originally going to make the exchange somewhere more secretive but changed it to Greenwich Park since accidents have been happening all around the city."

"What kind of accidents?" Derpy asked as Discord stopped the boat in the middle of the water.

"Knowing our luck, most likely the kaiju looking for the keys too." Discord lets out an annoyed sigh. "And here I thought vacations were supposed to be fun." Before they knew it, Discord snapped his fingers and the silver veil had seated them on the second level of an empty double decker bus. "Guess the tour will have to wait." He had gotten up, leaving out the bus.

"Is this the Greenwich power station?" Turner and the others had followed Discord off the bus and found themselves walking out the doors of a building instead of a bus, which was next to the Greenwich Park. "I'd really like to take a closer look at your magic, Discord." His eyes glow at that moment. "Get down!"

They drop to the floor in time as a blast of fire shot through trees in front of them and blasted a hole through the doors of the power station.

"And I really need to ask you about yours at somepoint." Discord rebutted standing back up along with the others.

"What the heck was- Oh." Ressha had gotten his answer as they looked ahead to find people running away in all directions from the Acrocan Primeval that was shooting blasts of fire randomly all around. "Molten!? How'd that damn bastard get his Primal Core back?" Momo said annoyed having taken oven.

Derpy squints staring at the Primeval. "I don't think that's Molten."

"What makes you say that?" Discord asked which she just answers pointing to its chest. The guys look to see what looks like a red card with a black heart in its chest. "I can see your point now."

Momo cracks his knuckles with a huge grin. "Which means it's time for us to take the stage."

Discord stops Momo grabbing him from the back of his shirt. "No can do. There're too many people around. Can't risk being seen by this many and wind-up being lectured by the others."

"Then what can we do if you can't transform?" Derpy worried as the Primeval was continuing its attack.

"We split up." Turner said making the others turn to him. "If fighting that thing isn't an option then we should focus on helping everybody get to safety then."

"But what about the Arms?" Momo pointed out. "If those bastards are still around, we could still take them back before they get away."

Turner shakes his head. "No. Right now, these people need our help. The Arms can wait for another time."

Derpy nods agreeing. "He's right. The arms can wait, but people's lives can be lost if we don't help."

"Heh. Spoken like true Kamen Riders." Discord said smiling while ruffling her hair. "Alright then, you three help get everyone to safety. I'll distract the flaming leather boots."

"Are you sure you can handle that thing on your own?" Turner asked looking from the Primeval to Discord.

"Pfft, who do you think you're talking to?" He then runs, charging up to the Primeval. The moment it turned to face him; it gets blasted with extinguisher gas and then hit across the face with a fire extinguisher. Discord disappears the moment it tries swiping at him and reappears a few feet in front of it. "Come on, Torchie! Toro! Toro!"

Acrocan growled seeing Discord mock it by having made himself look like a bullfighter, waving a big red cloth at it. The Primeval roars before shooting blasts of fire at Discord, who with a huge toothy grin, avoids the flames while also having it run through the cloth.

While he was keeping the kaiju busy, Derpy and the others run to help evacuate anyone hurt from the park.

"Come on! You need to get the hell out of here!" Momo shouted to people who had been knocked to the ground and helped them up. One ended up shoving him out of the way after he helped them up. "Hey bastard, no need to be a jackass!" 'I think under these circumstances, it's fine.'

"Help! Someone please, help us!" Momo heard the sound of someone screaming for help and runs in the direction it came from. Not far he finds an old woman dressed in a blue button up coat and hat trying to help a well-dressed boy with his legs trapped under a fallen tree. "Please help my grandson." The grandmother begged Momo after he knelt next to her.

'Momo, I think you should switch with Griz for this one.' "What?! Why the-" Momo is cut off as his spiky hair changes into a ponytail. "Okay, leave it to me!"

The old woman was confused by his sudden change in personality but then gets surprised and shocked by how Griz grabs onto the tree with both arms and lifts it up with ease. The grandmother and boy stared at him for a few seconds in amazement till she shook herself out of her daze and picked up her grandson.

"Thank you, young man. I don't know how I could ever repay you." She said to Griz with gratitude.

"Den-o!" Before Griz could say anything, Wolf came charging into him out of nowhere. "This will be the day you die!" The Imagin shouted as his sword went halfway through the tree.

The grandmother had shot up to her feet while holding her grandson close. "Young man!"

"Go! I'll be fine!" Griz shouted to her while he and Wolf tried pushing each other back.

The women just gave a nod with a worried face before running off with her grandson away from the kaiju. "Thank you, mister!" The boy shouted out to Griz.

Griz flashed the boy a smile before looking back to Wolf. "Te ow tsuite!" Griz twists their positions around and drags the Imagin towards Discord and the Primeval's direction.

While that was happening, Turner was continuing to lead people to safety. "Come on! This way!" He yelled as he led people away. He stops for a moment hearing the sound of a dog barking coming through the panicking people. He begins looking around for the source and finds himself at a playground.

Like other playgrounds there's a slide, monkey bars, etc. This playground also had a large sand pit with a big screw and a water dam for kids to play on, as well as a tunnel made of small trees and a wooden playhouse.

"Hello. Is anyone there?" Turner called out. He's answered by the dog's barking coming from the playhouse. Turner runs over and finds a Retriever inside with a little girl holding on tightly to it. "Are you alright? You should get out of here along with everyone else."

When the girl remains quiet, he takes a better look trying to see what's wrong. The girl seems to be around 6 or so years old from how she looks, with no scratches or blood anywhere on her lime-green skin or short green hair, and unhurt judging from how her dress seems to not be torn anywhere. But she's keeping her eyes closed shut with her hold on the dog not changing as it tried getting her to stand with it. He could now see that she's really scared.

Turner decides to move closer but stops as the dog gave him a warning growl. "It's okay. I promise I'm here to help, um..." Seeing a collar on the dog, he takes a look at the tag while keeping a distance. "Diana, huh? Nice to meet you, Diana. So, what's your name then?" He asked looking to the girl.

The girl opens her eyes to take a look at him and finds him giving her a warm smile. With a sniffle, she answers. "I-I'm Olive. Olive Leaf."

"That's a lovely name. My name is Time Turner. But my friends just call me Turner. Olive, what are you doing here?"

"Me and Diana got separated from my big sisters."

"I see. And I'm guessing you hid in here from the monster outside." She answered him nodding. "That was clever, Olive. But you can't stay here. We need to run."

Olive shakes her head. "No! The monster will get me!"

Making sure Diana is okay with him, Turner moves a bit closer. "Look there's nothing to worry about. You'll be fine." When the girl hides her face against Diana, with the dog herself making a worried cry. He begins trying to think of a solution till finds one. "You know to tell you the truth, I'm scared too."

"R-Really?" Olive asked peeking out a bit.

"Yes. I'm sure even my friends out there are scared. But even with that, we're still going around helping others like you. We know we can get badly hurt or worse, but we just can't leave others to suffer while just running to get ourselves to safety. It may scare us a lot but the courage to do what's right, helps us keep moving forward."

Turner turns around, walks out of the playhouse and kneels down with his back facing Olive. He then peeks back to her with a smile. "Bravery always begins with fear. So, do you want to be brave and keep moving with us?" She stares at him for a second before walking over and climbing onto his back. "Hold on tight, Olive. Let's go, Diana!"

With Diana running and barking next to him, Turner ran along following with the crowd. He stopped now and then to help others who trip before continuing. "Olive!/Olive, where are you!?" The two eventually hear the voices of two girls calling out as they got halfway to the entrance of the park.

Ahead they see two teen girls calling out Olive's name. One girl with lime-green skin and blond hair tied back into a ponytail is wearing a tracksuit. The second girl with light yellow skin and dark green long hair is wearing jeans and a blouse.

"Those are my sisters!" Olive happily said.

"Then, you should hurry back to them. They seem worried about you." Turner said while setting her down. Olive immediately runs to her sisters with Diana following along. He watched smiling as the sisters' spot and run over to Olive, with the two giving her huge hugs.

His eyes then glow, along with a blurry mark now appearing on the back of his right hand. "Derpy!" Turner spoke to himself full of worry and turns to rush back into the park.

"Turner!" He stops to look back and sees Olive with her sisters all waving to him. "Thank you!" He returns the smile with a wave before looking forward and running back into the park.

Meanwhile

"Please hurry this way everyone." Derpy was doing the same as Turner helping others escape the park. She had even helped by getting people, who were trying to hide or record the disaster, to run to safety.

She had led everyone going past a museum. "Be careful not to shove." Derpy shouted as all the panicking citizens passed by her. As she's about to follow them, she trips falling flat on the floor a moment before the wall next to her burst having been cut into bits by slashes.

She stood up on her knees rubbing her head. "Ow. That hurt." "AAAHHHH!!!/MOMMY!!!" Four grown men cried screaming past her and dropping something next to her. "What happened to them? Hm?" She scratched her head confused till she noticed watches the next to her. "The Arms!!"

Next to her were the staff and medium double edge sword. The staff was black with silver claws at the top holding pink orb. The blade of the sword was silver with the handle being black, along with a pink gem in the hilt.

Derpy picks them up smiling. "How did you get here? Hm? What did this?." She had asked the Arms before noticing the hole in the wall.

"Why if it isn't Derpy." The familiar female sent a chill down her spine. Derpy quickly got up to back up as Scarlet walked out of the museum. "I never expected to find you here. What brought you here, so far from home?" She was amused watching Derpy back away from her out of fear while keeping a tight hold on the Arms. "Now if you don't mind cross eyes, hand over the Arms. Or will you do me the favor of entertaining me."

Scarlet becomes covered in orb of green electricity, that then crystalizes and bursts into pieces to reveal Scarlet in a new Primeval form. Her body is covered in lime-green feathered skin with black crystal claws and beak. This is the Therizino Primeval as black crystal gauntlets form on her arms with three green crystal blades coming out of them.

"I wonder which is stronger, that sword or my claws? Do you want to test it out?" Therizino spoke while admiring her weapon and then aims the claw towards Derpy, who's now terrified. "This is where you run." The Primeval advised and chuckled sinisterly as she watched Derpy runs off. "I'm going to enjoy taking out my anger and stress on you, Derpy."

Therizino began to slowly chase after Derpy so she could enjoy using her as target practice, launch energy slashes at the poor girl. The Primeval laugh manically watching Derpy running with all her might across the park while trying desperately not to trip and fall like she usually does, which is what Therizino is waiting for.

Derpy moves side to side and goes from ducking to jumping, doing a great job to avoid the attacks multiple times. To avoid getting anyone into the crossfire, she ran in the opposite direction of the citizens, going further into the park. But after a while of dodging, her fears come true as a pebble falls in her path and trips her, which brings Therizino joy seeing.

The Primeval immediately dashed towards Derpy. "Sorry, sweetie. But this is game over." Therizino declared.

She closed the distance in no time and readied to jam her claws into the cross-eyed girl's spine. Unexpected to the kaiju though as she stabbed the ground, Derpy somehow hit the ground, got back up and jumped out of the way of the claws faster than what was possible for a normal person.

The two looked at each other confused by what just happened till Therizino tries to attack her again, which results in the Primeval's confusion being solved seeing a blurred mark appear on the back of Derpy's right hand. The magic from this mark somehow allows her to move fast enough to avoid the claws once again.

"You're a- Ugh!" Therizino was knocked to her back from the glowing gem of the staff as Derpy turned to run and luckily hit the kaiju without knowing. The Primeval growled beastly while glaring at Derpy. "I'll never allow another Rider to awaken." Standing up, Therizino builds up energy into her weapons before launching an overlapping claw slash that hits and explodes the behind Derpy as she ran up a steep hill.

"Aaahh!!" Derpy screamed as the explosion pushed her the rest of the way up the hill, landing on her rear. "Ouchie. Uh?!"

"You're not getting- What!?"

Therizino had charged up the hill ready to kill Derpy but was surprised by the Arms landing in front of her. She was confused by this action till she looked forward seeing a building behind the cross-eyed girl. The building seemed to be a cafe from how it looked on the inside with some people and children hiding inside.

"You can have the Arms. Just please stop attacking." Derpy pleaded.

"Normally I would agree to such terms. Except, your part of the problem," Therizino ended pointing at Derpy's hand, which she finally takes notice of the blurry mark. "Which means you have to die here and now."

Derpy really wants to run but is afraid that if she moves the attack will hit the building instead. So, she just stood still with her eyes closed waiting for Therizino to end her life as the Primeval charges her claw.

"GAH!!" The moment she was about to strike, Turner came dashing in and struck the Primeval from behind with the sword Arm. Therizino fell to one knee while Turner stopped in front of Derpy with both of the Arms in hand.

"WHO IN THE DAMN FUCKING HELL ARE YOU!!?" She demanded with fury but then sees the blur mark on him as well. "ANOTHER PEST!!? HOW MANY OF YOU RIDER CANIDATES ARE AROUND!!?"

Turner stood protectively in front of Derpy. "The name is Time Turner. And I'd really appreciate if you'd leave my friend alone."

Therizino growled angrily as she stood back up. "I'm not about to let you two go for more Riders to awaken and cause the master more trouble."

Before anything else could be said or done, the ground around them all began to glow in an aqua blue color with the ground looking watery.

"What is this?" The Primeval shielded its eyes from the bright light with Turner and Derpy doing the same and in seconds they've disappeared.

Meanwhile

Discord and Ressha were still dealing with the kaiju on their end. Arcocan launches a stream of fire at Discord which he counters using his magic to summon a stream of water to collide into it. As for Ressha, Momo was currently fighting Wolf with him barely keeping up with the Imagin's movements.

"I'm starting to get tired of this damn bastard." Momo irritated by how he's been having to stay on the defensive, blocking the claw strikes as Wolf kept running circles around him. "It's already a pain we'll have to deal with Rarity when we get back." He shouted over to Discord.

During the battle, Wolf had managed to cut and rip some parts of his jacket. Discord's was a bit the same from the ends of the sleeves and ends of the jacket being burnt and damaged.

"I wouldn't mind that. It's fun getting on her nerves." Discord spoke while running around with a shield avoiding the blasts of fire.

"Speak for yourself. Ressha is going to have us return the favor to her in some way." 'Well...It would be right to do something generous in return.' "That just gives more of a reason to- Ah!"

Wolf knocks the magic sword out of his hands. "Don't treat me like small fry, Den-o." The Imagin said while he punched Momo in the stomach and tossed him across the field.

"Ouch. That must've hurt." Discord said seeing what happened after putting a metal wall in front of him to block the fire. "I think we're-"

Discord quickly jumps back seconds as black crystal blades ripped through the wall. Though before he could touch the ground, he gets hit by a burst of wind, sent flying into a pole that he barely managed to block with the shield and lands on his back next to Momo.

"Still having fun?" Momo sarcastically mocked Discord as the two stood back up. "And looks like our problems have gotten bigger."

The two look around themselves as they're now surrounded by five kaiju. Having joined the fight are Cerato, Micro, and Stego Primevals with their weapons drawn, each having the same card as Acrocan stuck to their chests.

"Rider time?" Momo asked, which Discord nodded not seeing any citizens around anymore. "Rider time." The two said simultaneously taking out their belts but are surprised by the ground around the whole area around them glowing blue. "What the hell?!"

Just like with Turner and Derpy, they all disappeared in a flash.

Empty Quater Desert

In a bright flash of light, the two Riders and the kaiju fall onto the sandy grounds having been teleported to the palace ruins, with Derpy, Turner, and Therizino nowhere in sight.

The two groups stood up looking around confused. "How'd we-" Wolf is cut off as the groups get hit explosions caused by aqua wave slashes landing in front of them.

While the two groups were working on standing back up, Poseidon came walking up to them from the palace with the head of a Humagear that she tosses to the side.

"Poseidon." Ressha said out loud as the Rider stopped a couple feet ahead of them. "You're Kamen Rider Poseidon, right? Did you bring us here?"

"Decade. Den-o. The two of you will surrender your powers to me." She spoke out ignoring the question. "All the Rider powers rightfully belong to my family."

Discord and Ressha look to each other before looking back to Poseidon. "Not a chance." Both responded putting on their belts. "Henshin!" They shouted activating their transformations the moment Poseidon launched another slash and exploded in front of them.

(Sword Form!) (Decade!) "Let's go! Let's go!" Den-o shouted as him and Decade came charging out of the smoke towards Poseidon with both their weapons in sword mode.

The kaiju watched as the Riders engaged Poseidon in battle. She hits their swings to the side getting them with slashes across the chest.

"The only one who'll destroy Den-o will be me." Wolf declared before pointing to Decade and Poseidon. "The rest of you destroy the rest of the Riders." He ordered the Primevals, making them charge and attack the two Riders.

"Huh? What about me?" Den-o questioned confused by this. "Why the hell am I being ignored? Am I being looked-" He gets hit by energy slashes from behind, making him stumble forward a bit. He turns finding Wolf a few feet behind him. "Now that was a cheap shot, asshole."

Wolf brought out the Astro Switch and pressed it against his sword while activating it. (Claw On!) The sword morphs onto his arm, making a violet armor on it with three black crescent blades as claws at the end. "I'll do more than just that."

Inside the Palace Ruins

"Ow. How many times are we going to fall today?" Derpy groaned rubbing her head.

"I'd have to agree with you there, Derpy. Though what happened? Hm?" Turner takes notice of the familiar room they're in. Derpy, I think I know where we are."

They were now in the middle of a huge room with no windows, walls with different colored, shaped, and sized suns all around covering it, a dome shaped ceiling with the image of the night sky covering it. The entrance to the room was gone while the back of the room has the thrones that they had seen from the photo.

"We're in the throne room."

"Wow. This room looks amazing. Even for years having been under sand." Derpy said admiring the room. "But how'd we get here? And what happened to Scarlet?" She looked around for any signs of said villain.

They see no trace of Scarlet anywhere. The only thing they find is just the Arms next to them.

"I'm not sure on either of those. Although, I have a feeling that someone brought us here to unlock Zi-O's power for them." Turner picks up the Arms. "If that's the case, then I say we should hurry and unlock it."

"What? But if someone is waiting for us to unlock it, shouldn't we leave it alone or wait until Discord or Ressha are here with us?"

Turner walks over to the thrones. "No. If someone is waiting for us to solve this, there's no telling what they'll do if they get impatient. It's better if we get to it first and find some answers to our questions. The first step to doing that is to find out what the key is to begin the trial."

He places the Arms in their respectable thrones before beginning to search around. Derpy watched as Turner searched around for hints or clues that could lead them to the key and decides to do the same for a couple seconds.

"That's weird." She spoke out loud to herself getting Turner's attention.

"What's weird, Derpy? Did you find something?" He asked as he walked over to her.

"Well, I'm not sure if it's important, but I just thought the suns seemed a bit weird. Look there." Turner looked to a part of the wall that Derpy pointed to that was filled with suns like the rest of the walls. "All the suns are random and different. But then I thought one of the suns keeps repeating."

Turner squints trying to spot what she sees. "Where?" "There!" She answered pointing him straight to a certain sun that was well hidden by the others. "I see it. But what-"

He pauses seeing Derpy look across the room and finds another sun matching the first. Both were the size of a shaped like a blazing sun with seven pointed ends circling it and were magenta, but this one is lighter than first.

"Oh! Look! I found my zodiac sign, Scorpio." She shouted happily looking up at the ceiling while Turner was in his thoughts. "Which sign was yours again, Turner? Maybe I can find it too."

Turner looks up at the ceiling for a moment before going wide eyed from realizing something. "The ruler of time...wait. Could it be?" He looks back to all the suns seeing five other suns looking exactly as the two but are orange, yellow, purple, pink and cyan with darker version ones across from them, next to the dark magenta. "I've figured it out."

"Really? Where's the key then?" Derpy asked curious as Turner walked over to get the Arms and walked back with them, handing the sword to her. "Why are giving me- Ah!?" She gets surprised, blushing by him taking ahold of her left hand with his. "T-T-Turner, w-what are y-you doing?"

"Trust me on this." He said to her while keeping ahold of her hand with the Zi-O watch in between. "Aim the sword's tip at the dark pink sun."

Seeing the determination in his eyes, Derpy follows his instructions and aims the sword's tip at the sun, while Turner himself aimed the staff's tip towards a star at one of the dome's sides. Both the gems on the weapons and the Zi-o watch began to shine brightly, with the tips firing a beam of light towards the star and sun.

The whole room started shaking as both images shined, with the floor crumbling away. Derpy becomes afraid seeing the entrance to the throne crack up, which makes want to run. But when she looks back to Turner, she finds him grinning with the same look in his eyes. Mustering up her courage, Derpy holds her position, moving a bit closer to Turner.

Outside the Palace

While Den-o was getting beaten around the tents that's surrounded by bits of destroyed Humagears, Decade was juggling fighting between Poseidon and the Primevals.

The battles come to a halt for a moment as the ground shook making them stumble around a bit. They all turn to the palace, seeing the inner linings of it light up in a pink glow.

"Zi-O's power is beginning to awaken." Poseiden makes a run for the palace.

(Kamen Ride. Agito!) Decade came jumping over Poseidon, landing in front of her as Agito and gets her with a punch to the chest making her stumble back. "You're not going anywhere, missy." He said waving a finger at her.

"Move, Decade. Or would you prefer to be destroyed now?" Poseidon ended pointing her spears blade at Decade.

"Go ahead and try, if you can." Decade motions for her to attack before getting into a fighting stance. "We're counting on you guys." Decade quietly said to himself as the battle resumes.

Inside the Palace

"Derpy, it's okay now. You can open your eyes."

"Ah!?" She had opened her eyes only to find herself face to face with Turner. "I'm sorry!!" Derpy shouted blushing madly jumps back a step to look away.

She gets surprised seeing that there was only the platform they were on, along with a platform with the seats of the throne, is all that is left of the floor. She decides to peek over the edge and then gasps backing away from the edge, having seen it's only a deep pit that you couldn't see the bottom of.

Turner signed inwardly in relief that she didn't notice him blushing as well. "It's okay. I know you were just sticking close from the trial having activated."

"What?! It has?" Derpy turns back surprised hearing this. "But how? I thought we needed the key."

"We did have the key." Turner holds up the watch. "Turns out the watch with two people are needed to act as the key. Since a king and queen were the ones who guarded the power, I figured it was worth a shot on testing the theory."

She thought on it for a while till she saw what he was seeing. "Oh! I get it! That'd probably why there's so many two things around. But what was the reason for having me point at the sun?" Derpy asked curious to the answer.

He points up at the star. "That's the brightest star of the Leo constellation called Regulus. I figured it was part of starting the trial since lions are common symbols for royalty. As for the sun I had you aim at," He paused to point to said sun. "It's the best one out of the other eleven to line up with us."

"What do you mean line up with us?"

Turner holds up the Zi-O watch to her. "I just thought the symbol in the watch was the final clue we needed." He watches as Derpy took a closer look at the symbol for a few seconds and then smiles when she realizes what he means. "I take it you found out what the clue is."

"Yeah! It's the clock hands, right?" "Yes, exactly." Derpy smiles happily hearing she got it right. "Then the Arms are clock hands. It's amazing they came up with a lock like this." She then makes a confused look. "Then what's the trial?"

"I'm not sure." He admitted scratching the back of his head while looking around. "I haven't gotten any clues as to what- DERPY!!"

Turner shoves her to the side and out of the way in time as Therizino came jumping onto the platform. The moment Derpy looks back, she feels as her whole world freezes from seeing the Primeval had stabbed her claws into Turner, who coughs up blood.

"Aww, why'd you have to go and do that. I was going to be merciful and kill you both in one go. Now you'll have to suffer until I get her." Therizino lifts up Turner, chuckling darkly watching him struggle and hold in his pain for a moment before taking the Zi-O watch from him. "Now, I'll be taking this. Hm?"

Therizino looked to her left as Derpy continuously punches her arm with tears running down her cheeks.

"Let Turner go! Put him down!" Derpy demanded shouting.

"If you insist." The Primeval spoke in a cheerful dark tone before tossing Turner off the edge. To her actual surprise, Derpy doesn't waste any time and jumps off after him. "Pathetic. Now, for Zi-O's power."

As he fell with his eyes closed, Turner felt regret while thinking 'I wish I could've done more to protect Derpy'. His thoughts end up being interrupted when he feels a shock of pain. His eyes shoot open to find "D-Derpy?!" He was able to say through the pain as she held him close against her. "W-Why are you-"

"I jumped in after you." She answered before he could finish. "Why?" "I couldn't let you fall alone."

"Y-You shouldn't of d-done that. You should've found a way to escape to warn Discord and Ressha, and helped them get the power back."

Derpy shook her head. "No! I wouldn't want that. I-I wouldn't be able to live with myself having known I only survived because you died protecting me." She said snuffling. "Why? Why'd you have to do that? We could've probably avoided it together."

"I-I'm sorry. The moment I saw w-what was about to happen, the only thing I could think of was m-making sure you'd be okay." He chuckles weakly. "Not really a smart move I suppose."

Feeling a bit of heat, they look down ahead to see an orange light. The two look back to each other knowing what they're going straight into. Derpy has a worried look, but Turner gives her a comforting smile. "I'm sorry." The two said to each other, holding each other close.

Back at the top, the Zi-O watch began to react and glow pink. "What's going- Ah?!" She had said struggling to hold onto the watch till it shot out of her hand.

It went straight down the pit, racing and ramming into Derpy and Turner. It creates a light around them, stopping a second before touching the lava.

"Where...Where are we?" Derpy questioned as the two found themselves not in their burning death but in a white void with nothing around in sight. "How did we get here?"

"I brought you here."

She gets startled as a person begins to form in front of them. Or what they thought was a person, had formed into a Rider with the helmet matching the clock face of the Ridewatch but the katakana visor is pink with a silver watch strap going down the middle of his black armored with small parts of it being silver and pink. Around the waist is a belt looking like a white watch with a slot on both sides of the belt.

"I'm Sougo, Sougo Tokiwa. Or you'd know me as-"

"Kamen Rider Zi-O." Derpy finished saying form him. She hears Turner groan weakly, looks down to find he's lost a lot of blood and is beginning to lose consciousness. "Turner? Turner!" Derpy shouted as she shook him with no response before looking back to Zi-O. "Please help him. He's done so much to get us here. And...And I couldn't imagine a day without my best friend."

Zi-O doesn't respond for a moment before extending his hand out towards them. Before she could question what he's doing, clock faces appear over Turner's wound and is shocked to see that the wound began to close up, along with the blood and holes in his shirt becoming undone.

Turner sat up groaning, then looked over his stomach to find the wound completely gone and sighs in relief. "I really thought I was a goner there."

"TURNER!!" Derpy shouted happily bringing him into a tight bearhug. "I'm so glad you're okay."

"D-Derpy...not so tight." "Oops. Sorry." She apologized after letting him go. He takes a moment to regain his breath. "That's alright. Just proves I really am still alive."

Happy her friend is alright, Derpy looks to Zi-O. "Thank you so much, Sougo." She thanked him, which the Rider just responds with a nod.

Turner looks to the Rider. "So, you're the original Zi-O?"

"Yes. Or at least the original in my world. When it comes to the multiverse, there are many worlds with originals of the same heroes."

Turner bowed while say "Well, none the less, thank you for saving me." and then looks around. "Though where are we? Is this the area for the trial?" He asked looking back to Zi-O.

"No. The trial is over." The Rider answered shaking his head.

"What!?" The two shouted in shock. "But we haven't done anything. Does that mean we failed?" Derpy asked worried they might've let their friends down.

"No. You're mistaken. The trial isn't a test. It is a judgement. A judgement that has come to a decision." His words made them both relieved and nervous. "You have both passed."

The two both shoot up to their feet, shocked by what they just heard.

"What?! But I thought only one person could inherit a Rider's power. How could we both pass." Derpy questioned confused by what was happening.

"Originally yes. That was the case. But after some events in my world, I began to believe that the title, 'Ruler of Time', should be the responsibility of more than one person. Which is why I left the possibility of more than one inheritor as an option."

"But how could it be over already? What did you judge us on? When did it start." Turner curiously asked.

Zi-O holds his hand up to the two's left as an image appeared and started playing exactly how Zi-O says it. "It all began right then. Turner, you've shown how calm you are in dangerous situations. Willingly chose to help innocent people, instead of going after the Arms. Showed you were willing to be patient with others and help them through their fears. In the end, you were even willing to give up your life to protect your loved ones."

He then looks to Derpy. "And you Derpy, shown you trust your friend enough to help others, even when you're worried for them. You also gave up the Arms when it meant keeping the innocent safe. And in the end, even when knowing you wouldn't survive, you jumped into the pit to go after your friend."

The two friends look at each other for a moment, smile and look back to say "And we would keep doing it."

Zi-O nods to them glad to hear their answer. "Good. And now the reward."

He holds out his hand towards them as particles of light came out of his palm, flew around their waists and materialized his belt around, the Ziku Driver. The Zi-O watch then appeared in front of them, regains its color and turns into two that each land in the two friends' hands.

"Also, sorry about the extra gift." Zi-O had said while disappearing.

Before they could ask him what he meant, the Rider was gone. The two looked to each other for a second before nodding and looking at the watch to turn the face of the watch and push the button at the top. (Zi-O!)

They then insert the watch into the right slot and push a button at the top of the belt, unlock the front of the belt making it slanted as a standby music played. As the standby music played, a huge clock face along with smaller ones next to it appeared behind the two, with the clock's hands moving counterclockwise.

"Henshin!" The two shouted spinning the front of the belt counterclockwise. The clock's hands spun fast counterclockwise till they stopped in the same position as Zi-O's symbol. The katakana appeared and flew off the clock face as it turned into rings that spun around the two.

Back at the top, Therizino looked down the pit, feeling both angry and confused by what happened. "Where'd that damn watch go?" The Primeval then looked to and covered her eyes from the throne as a bright light appeared. "What's going on?"

(Kamen Rider Zi-O!) Therizino heard this announcement as the light faded to reveal two Kamen Rider Zi-Os' standing in front of the thrones with the name appearing on the screens of the belts.

"No! It can't-" (REJOICE!!) A rejoicing voice spoke out loud, even being heard from outside the palace, startling both the kaiju and the two Riders. Suddenly one of two watches on Turner's right arm shoots out. It changes into a green watch with a bit of silver and unfolds into what looks like a miniature Rider.

(The ones who have inherited the power of my lord... The king and queen of time who reign over the past and future. Their name is Kamen Rider Zi-O. Truely this is the moment a new history is born.)

The miniature Rider folds back up before reattaching itself to Turner's arm. The two friends look at each other confused by the whole thing before focusing back on Therizino.

Therizino growled in anger. "Looks like I'll just have to destroy the two of you now to get Zi-O's power." The two Zi-Os brace themselves as the Primeval charged at them.

Outside the Palace

(Agito Storm!) Having changed into Agito Storm form, Decade uses the Storm Halberd to block Poseidon's spear as the two then hold each other in place trying to push one another back.

"From the sounds of it, our friends have claimed Zi-O's power."

"Doesn't matter. It just means I'll have to take it by force. Along with yours and Den-o's" Poseidon responded in a threatening tone.

Decade grin under his mask. "You take our powers?" He shoves the Dark Rider back. "As the great Ultraman Zero would say; Never in two million years!" He said as Poseidon tried thrusting her spear into him, but he just hits it to the side, along with hitting her multiple times while twirling the halberd around side to side. "Remember that!" He shouts usings the last hit to send Poseidon flying back a few feet onto the ground.

"Now for the rest of you." Decade turned with the four Primevals charging at him, with he responds by doing the same. He slides ducking under Cerato's blade as he ran by it while having slashed its waist. Micro and Acrocan try using their attacks but with wind from the halberd, Decade easily goes through the wind burst and fire blasts before delivering slashes across their chests as he passed by.

(Final Attack Ride. A-A-Agito!) The driver announced from Decade having put in the card while he and Stego run up to each other. Decade hits Stego's sansetukon to the side, along with knocking the weapon out of its hands with a second strike, and then destroys the Primeval, cutting it down the middle with a third strike of the Storm Halberd.

"Next is-" Decade said while opening his belt but pauses saying to rolls to the side avoiding fireballs shot from Acrocan, who got back up first. "is you, buddy." He announced while putting a card and closing the driver. (Kamen Ride. Ryuki!)

With rotating images converging on him, Decade transforms into Kamen Rider Ryuki. A red, black and silver Rider resembling a knight with dragon image at the top of the helmet that has red round eyes under a knight face guard and a dragon head device on the left arm's wrist known as the Dragvisor.

While Acrocan builds up fire in its hands, Decade opens the belt having taken another card out and closes it after putting it in. (Attack Ride. Strike Vent!) He holds up his right arm as a roar sound was heard and ball of fire lands on his arm with it having left the head of a red dragon attached to it.

Decade reels back his arm with the dragon head, making it build up fire in its mouth. He and Acrocan both launch streams of fire, with Decade's going through the Primeval's in seconds and destroys the kaiju.

(Kamen Ride. Kabuto!) The last two kaiju heard and turned to see Decade repeating the process as he transforms again with a new armor materializing. The transformation into Kamen Rider Kabuto completes as a kabuto horn comes over in between a single oval shaped visor, making it look like round light blue eyes. Most of the armor is silver and black with the helmet, chest and shoulders being red. (Attack Ride. Clock Up!)

Moving at high speed, Decade runs at the two Primevals, hits them into each other before running and slashing by them multiple times. He then stops in front of them to put another card in as they move in slow motion. (Final Attack Ride. K-K-Kabuto!) The belt announced as energy went from it going up to the horn before going down to his right leg, that he uses right then to kick the two kaiju across the face.

Decade returns to his original form with the kaiju exploding behind him. "Four down. And now," He reacts quickly jumping back in time to avoid the aqua slashes, with Poseidon charging towards him. "Now just the annoy plate of sushi to take care of." (Form Ride. Build KeyDragon!Fuin nofantasista!KeyDragon!)

Using Build's KeyDragon form, Decade uses the key arm to block and force the spear into the ground before quickly launching chains to wrap and lock Poseidon's spear with her leg. He then uses dragon arm to palm strike the Dark Rider in the face and then the stomach.

"Don't think your little tricks will save you, Decade." Poseidon said as she broke the chains and lands a slash across Decade's chest. But when she tries going for another hit, Decade uses the dragon arm to block.

"Then how about we test that theory out." The Rider proposed taking out more blank cards that change into Zero-One, OOO, and surprisingly a Zi-o card. He then hits her back to insert one of the cards. (Kamen Ride. Zero-One!To-bia ga rise! Rising Hopper!)

Having transformed into Zero-One, Decade instantly jumps right in front of Poseidon, kneeing the Dark Rider before she could do anything. "What?! How'd you- Argh!" As she stumbled back, he knocks her over with a sweep kick and then kicks her up into the air as she fell.

"Now for the finish." (Final Attack Ride. Z-Z-Zero-One!) The belt announced after inserting the card. Decade jumps up to her, kicks her higher, gets above her and then thrusts himself down towards her before getting into a kick position.

"GAAAHHH!!" Poseidon screamed from Decade's kick having made contact and sending her crashing straight into the ground, causing a huge dust cloud to cover the area.

Decade lands changing back to his original form. He looked around for Poseidon as the dust cloud cleared but saw no signs of the Dark Rider, except for the Core Medals that were laying on the ground. He picks them up and sees they're the same ones from her belt.

"Her family, huh." Decade said to himself looking at the medals before looking around. "I would've liked to see who she was instead of getting these medals."

Around the Tents

Den-o and Wolf fell crushing a table and quickly get up to headbutt each other. "Owowowowowow!/Owowowowowow!" The two mumbled before looking at each other. "Damn bastard!/Fucking bastard!" The two shouted at each other as they both landed hits on each other, making them stumble away from the other.

'You sure are taking forever with the wolf, Momo.' Den-o was told in his head while he panted a bit. "What? Do you think you could do better, Kame?" 'I don't think. I know I can.'

"Don't ignore me!" Wolf shouted charging up to Den-o.

"Shut the hell up!!" "AGH!!" Wolf yelped hopping back in pain holding his foot after Den-o stomped on it the second he blocked his claws. "I'm talking to someone right now!" Den-o scuffed at Kame's confidence but has a grin under helmet. "Alright then. Let's see what you can do."

Den-o pushes the belt's blue button making a new standby music play before running the pass over it. (Rod Form!) Den-o's face plate closes up before disappearing with the armor flying off him to get into a new formation with the red on the legs changing to blue. The chest pieces attach to the back again, while new parts unfold from inside the back pieces and attach onto the chest with the back pieces attaching onto the shoulders.

A blue light changed into a turtle that rode down the mask's tracks and folds in, changing it into a new mask. The new chest armor was blue with a bit of yellow, having a bit of a shell-like appearance. The mask was blue with the inner linings and the eyes being orange.

"Hey, would you let me use you as an example?" Den-o asked while rearranging the Dengasher into a rod with the base of the weapon extending to look more like a rod.

"Do I seem like a fool to you? Don't screw with me!" Wolf shouted charging at Den-o once again. Though this time the end result is different as Den-o just keeps using his weapon to guard against the Imagin's claws, while taking steps back.

'Kame, what are you doing./You do know you're supposed to be attack, right?/If this all you're going to be doing, then switch back with me!' "Paitence, fellas." Den-o responded to them in his thoughts while he continued guarding. "Just have to wait for the right chance."

Wolf laughs as Den-o only continues guarding while taking steps back. "What's the matter, Rider? Are you afraid of me? If that's the case, then I'll put an end to your fear." Wolf swipes his claw upward, hitting Den-o's weapon out of his hands and into the air. "Now the finish!"

"Now!" Den-o shout in his head as he drops to the floor avoiding the claws. "What!? Ugh!" The moment Wolf looked down; Den-o thrusted a kick under the Imagin's chin while doing a hand stance. Jumping back to his feet, Den-o begins hitting Wolf with assaults of spin kicks across the face while the Imagin was dazed and ends with a back kick sending Wolf flying back.

"I'm not done yet." Catching his weapon, Den-o swings it towards Wolf making the bladed tip launching, changing into a hook and wire that wraps around the Imagin's leg. Pull the kaiju back towards him, Den-o spins as Wolf was passing by and roundhouse kicks him through tents and into the palace's wall.

(Full Charge!) The belt announced from Den-o having swiped the pass over it. "And now, the finisher." After blue energy transfers from the belt to the Dengasher's tip, He throws the rod like a harpoon, hitting Wolf directly in the chest as the Imagin got up and turned into a blue hexagonal symbol. Den-o runs up to Wolf as he's held in place by the symbol, jumps and shatters the symbol with a side kick. "RAAAAHHHHH!!" Wolf screamed out as he exploded after having been kicked through the wall.

"And that's how it's done, Momo." 'Shut the hell up. I could've ended that faster./I doubt that./Who asked you?/Will you guys ever get along?' Den-o chuckled picking up the Astro Switch as the two fought in his head. "Seems like I'll fit in perfectly with you all."

Back in the Palace

"Ah!" Both Zi-O's shouted as they came smashing through a wall, landing on their backs inside of a large room. They look around the moment they get back up to see that they're in what looks like a ballroom with them standing next one of many pillars circling around the room and a crystal chandelier hanging at the center of the room.

"Zi-O!!" The two Riders looked back to see Therizino come charging through the hole. The Primeval grabs the two, dragging them to the center of the room and then shoves them back to slash them across the chest with her claws. "I don't care if I have to cover my hands in your blood, I'll be taking Zi-O's power." She declared to the Riders who are picking themselves off the floor while she grinded her claws against each other.

Both Zi-Os back way as Therizino walks towards them. "Things aren't really looking in our favor." Turner said to Derpy while still keeping his eyes on the Primeval.

"We can't let her take our power. But what should we do?" Derpy asked in a worried tone. (If I may your majesties,) The two looked to the green watch on Turner's arm. (might I suggest using your weapons.) "Weapons? What weapons?"

The moment Therizino pounces at them, the Arms came flying through the hole, ramming into the Primeval from behind causing her to fly past them. They stop in front of the Riders, who look at each other before taking ahold of them. Right then, the Arms react to them causing them to glow and changed their form.

The sword had changed into Zi-O's primary weapon, the Zikan Girade. While the staff was now a scepter, having the same gray color as the sword's handle with a transcalent black lining the edges of the top and bottom. It still has the same pink gem at the bottom, but the top now has a shape resembling a grandfather clock with the middle of the clock face having a slot for a watch, with the tip having a silver arrowhead and a green trigger button under the face.

(Zikan Girade!) (Zikan Zepter!) The two weapons announced themselves in the same voice as the two Zi-Os looked them over with amazed looks under their masks.

"It doesn't matter what you have, you'll both still die here!" Therizino stood up and charged towards the two Riders. Turner reacts in time to use both his arms to block and hold the Primeval in place. "What?! Gah!" With her eyes closed under the helmet, Derpy thrusted her staff forward into Therizino's gut making the Primeval stumble back.

Turner takes advantage of this by slashing her across the chest twice, with the second sending her rolling to the floor. "Damn you." She growled angrily standing back up. (Attack Ride. Blast!) Therizino heard before getting hit with multiple shots from behind. "Ugh! What?!" She looks behind herself to see Decade leaning against a pillar waving at her with his arms crossed.

"Don't forget about us!" She looked to her left as Den-o slashed her running by making sparks fly off the Primeval's chest. Den-o slides to a stop looking to the two Zi-Os. "Hey! Finish this fight already, you two."

"How do we-" (My queen, might I suggest for you and the king to insert your watches into you weapons.) The green watch answered her question before she could finish it. Both having looked to the watch, then look to each other and nod before looking back to Therizino.

The two remove the Zi-O watches from their belt and inserted them into their weapons, making both announce (Finish Time!) Energy begins building up around the sword's blade and at the tip of the staff with both Riders getting into ready positions. Turner dashes forward the moment Therizino begins getting up, while Derpy traces a ring in front of herself.

(Zi-O Giri Giri Slash!) The sword announced as Turner ran by the Primeval, slashing through her waist. As for Derpy, the ring had filled with energy, along with Zi-O's symbol appearing in the middle. She launches it at Therizino by thrusting the scepter into the ring and pushing the trigger for it to announce (Zi-O Royal Break!)

"AAAAAAAHHHHH!!" Therizino screamed out from the attack hitting with the symbol burning her chest while the ring spins around her, building up energy inside with her until exploding. The Riders stand in place as they waited for the smoke to clear, revealing Scarlet on her knees with an enraged expression and her outfit a bit torn up. "This isn't over, Riders." She warned them as she was engulfed in darkness and is gone along with it.

The Riders all let out a sigh of relief, relaxing knowing the battle is over for now. "That was really scary and tiring. How can you guys continue doing this everyday." Derpy complained falling to her knees.

"Nothing really. We just know it's the right thing to do." Decade responded walking over to her along with the others.

"Ressha says it also helps when you hear about the people you helped." Derpy smiles hearing that. Den-o then looks to Turner. "Also, shouldn't your grandfather be somewhere around here?"

Turner nods. "Yes. I figured he and the others would either be in the ruins or in the tents outside."

Decade sighs rubbing the back of his head. "That's the thing. We didn't find anyone around outside. And if they were in here, I'm sure they would've shown up during that whole fight."

Dread began to fill both Zi-Os coming to this realization, as they begin wondering where the excavation team could be. Right at that moment, they all get startled by sound of an explosion echoing through the palace.

"W-What was that?" Derpy asked terrified.

"I think it came from the throne room." Turner was the first to run out the ballroom with the others following after him. They ran through the halls making their way to the throne room, where they find thrones having been left in pieces and with a hole right where they used to be. "What happened here?"

Decade looks into the whole along with the others. "I'm not sure. But something tells me that it's nothing good."

Turner looks around. "Grandpa, where are you?" He asked before looking back to the hole. "And what else was hidden here?"

Equestria

A portal opens up with an elderly frail looking centaur with red skin and white hair. He has a goat beard, small horns , a hunched back and seems to be the same size as a pony. The portal closed behind him leaving him in the middle of the Everfree Forest with a scroll in his right hand.

"Seems you were able to find what you were looking for, Lord Tirek." A male voice spoke out to Tirek come from all directions.

"Yes. And with this map, I'll be able to take what is rightfully mine." Tirek said with a wicked smile while tightening his grip on the scroll. "And how are the humans I sent you."

The voice laughed wickedly. "They're completely under our control. They should make finding our prize go by quicker. Even if it means being a living scrifice."

Tirek chuckled. "That's great to hear. I'm really going to love putting that old man who tried stopping me through harsh labor." He ended with the two laughing out maniacally.

To Be Continued

Chapter 8- Bargaining Sale

The Dark Realm

"KYAAAAHHHHH!!" Scarlet screamed in pain as she was held mid-air by red lightning coming from Reaper's hand. Brutus and Molten were just standing on the sidelines watching as Reaper was punishing Scarlet for her recent loss against the Riders.

"I believe I warned you what would happen if you failed, griffon. Did I not?" The cloaked being brought up with a annoyed distorted tone. "You were warned and yet you tried to sneak away from your punishment even though it's the master's orders."

Scarlet tries struggled against the hold. "I wasn't trying to run. I was going to prove my worth to the master by destroying the Riders." She spoke through the pain that she was being put through.

Reaper releases her from the hold, letting her drop flat to the floor. "You no longer have the free will to make judgements on your own." Walking up to her, Reaper lifts her head up by her hair after kneeling next to her. "If you're to destroy the Riders, then it will be under my decisions and orders. Do I make myself clear, griffon?"

With a nod, Reaper releases her and snaps their fingers making two Riotoozes appear as they stood up straight. "Take her to the lab. If she wants to face the Riders again, then I'll grant her wish and allow it. But as a tool of my choice." The Riotoozes do as they were told picking her up and walking off with her. "Brutus, the master has a job for you and Molten. And if you fail, you'll share the same fate as the griffon."

"So long as I get to face Zero-One, I'll gladly accept regardless of the cost." "If it's an order by the master, then I have no reason to refuse. " The two accepted without any hesitation. Molten walks up to Reaper. "The only question now is what does the master want us to do."

Reaper taps the air with their finger, making contact with it as if it were a solid object, making a map of Canterlot City appear with different parts of on the map lit up.

"It would seem that more of the Riders powers have surfaced. The master wants you to retrieve them. Or at best, don't allow the Riders to secure them all. This should be simple enough for the two of you." Reaper began to leave in the direction the Riotoozes left in. "Use these the next time you encounter the Riders." Brutus catches four Progrisekey looking items tossed to him.

The moment the cloaked being was gone, Brutus waved his hand over image, making it change and split into two. One is of Applejack's farm where the Apple family were doing early morning chores, minus one Big Mac, before heading to school along with Negi helping them.

The second was of Canterlot's animal shelter where Fluttershy is helping clean the cages and kennels of the animals with Drago and a bit of a tired looking Spike helping out.

"Seems they don't know of the items having surfaced yet." Brutus speculated from how they were going about their day normally. "We'll have to work fast if we want to get to them before the Riders. Either that or-"

"We allow the Riders to find them and then destroy them along with taking the items, all in one go."

Police Station

The station was as lively as always with an annoyed looking Shining Armor at his desk with a newspaper from Canterlot High School.

He slammed the paper onto his desk. "Rah. Once again, the school was informed by the whole events that happened yesterday. Not only that but all the mall's security footage was erased." Shining lets out a frustrated sigh, leaning back in his chair. "The higher ups are really going to let us have it now."

"Doesn't seem like it's going to be that way." Shining sits upright as his uncle walked up to him. "Seems someone is being set from one of the higher ups to assist us with the Riders."

"How exactly can someone within the force be able to go against the Riders?" Shining questioned thinking it sound skeptical. "Last I remembered, we didn't have powered suits like what the Riders use."

"That's absolutely correct." The two along with the other officers turned to the entrance to see a lady that seems to be in her early thirties wearing black pants and blazer, a white T-shirt and black high heels. Making her way towards Dusk and Shining with a suitcase in hand, some of the officers seemed either love struck or amazed by her beautiful gray skin, long dark cerulean hair and light gray eyes. "Or at least it used to be correct."

"Who might you be? I don't think I've seen you around Canterlot City before." Dusk questioned as she hands him a business card. "Hm...Zea Everwood. Wait, isn't that the company that owns the Everwood Forest?"

The woman nods. "Yes. That's correct. My name is Chrysalis. I'm here representing my company." "So, what exactly is your business here?" Shining asked being suspicious of the woman. "Your higher ups were searching on ways to deal with these so-called Riders you're having trouble catching and my company gave them a solution."

"What kind of solution?" Instead of answering Dusk, Chrysalis set the suitcase on Shining's desk and opens it to show them its contents which shocks them. "Wait! Are these-"

Inside the case were what looks like two Drivers. One is a black with a red and silver single slot front. A white transparent Gaia Memory with a gold sword and cape making the letter 'P' on it and 'Paladin' in small letters on the side next to it. And the second is a Driver that's a black and blue gun with a gold Progrisekey called Fighting Jackal.

Chrysalis nods. "Indeed. They're the same as what the Riders use. They are the Lostdriver and Shotriser. With these you should be able to be on equal terms with the Riders." She looks to the chief. "I shall leave the choice of Riders up to you, Chief Dusk."

Dusk looked at her for a second before looking back to the Drivers. Shining Armor reaches and picks up the Gaia Memory and presses the button. (PALADIN!)

[Cue Opening]

Canterlot High School

It was the middle of the afternoon with the students having lunch in the school cafeteria. Drago and the group were all seated at the same table by the windows.

On one side of the table was Applejack, Negi and Drago while the rest of the girls were on the other side. Each were enjoying their lunches. Well, all except for one.

While eating their lunches, Rainbow lets out a sigh. "When are Connor and the others going to be back? You'd think they'd be able to get a job done quickly."

"Oh. Is someone missing her Connor?" Rarity teased with a grin.

"Of course, I-" Rainbow's face reddened. "W-What?! N-No! Rarity! I just mean, that things around here are a bit boring without the whole group around." She tried passing off with an annoyed expression, but the blush on her face was telling them otherwise, causing them to giggle and laugh softly.

Applejack looks to Negi. "Thanks again for the help this mornin'. With the cold Big Mac caught, I thought Apple Bloom and I were gonna be late today."

"Me and the animals were also really grateful to you and Spike for helping at the shelter, Drago." Fluttershy added smiling to her friend. "Thanks to you, we were able to get a lot more done than usual."

"No problem." "Yeah. Don't mention it. Me and Spike were just helping keep Discord's promise to help since he's gone at the moment." Drago said returning the smile.

Pinkie pops up from in between the guys while drumming two spoons against the table. "How is Spike's first day of school going so far?" She then repeatedly ducks out of sight and reappears in different angels around Drago while continuing to drum. "Has he made any friends? Does he have a favorite teacher? What's his favorite class so far? Does he plan on joining any clubs? If so, then he should join the baking club. We're always excepting newer members."

"Well... I'm not sure on any of that. But he does seem to be having fun." "How do you know?" Drago answers Fluttershy's question by motion her to look behind herself with the others following the direction.

They find Spike sitting at a table at the corner of the room with Rumble and the CMC talking with smiles on their faces.

"So, we're going to the cafe today still so you can show us your room, right Spike?" He nods answering Scootaloo's question before she looked to Rumble. "And you can show us what you were going to do yesterday with Connor."

Rumble shook his head. "Nope." "What? Why not?" "I mean I was just going yesterday to help me out with my science homework. But I am helping him work on something. But I promised him I wouldn't show anyone what he's doing."

"Can you at least tell us what he's working on?" Sweetie asked curious on what it could be.

He thought for a second before continuing. "He's working on newer rides that Zea thinks will be needed at some point." "Really? What kind of rides?" Scootaloo asked excited. "Not sure what the two are. But the third is a motorcycle that he said he's making himself in case for someone back in Sunset's old world."

"Really? But everyone in Equestria don't know anything about any of the vehicles here. Who in Equestria would need it?" Rumble shrugs to Spike's question. "Beats me. I'm just happy to help." "Now I'm really curious about it."

Drago smiles at the sight. "They seem to be getting along. It's been a while since I've seen Spike smile so much."

Applejack and Negi turned back to Drago confused from the last part. "What do ya-" "That reminds me, why didn't you or Discord say anything before about Spike being your brother? Especially when you guys first showed up." Rainbow asked with the rest of the girls just as curious.

He shrugs after taking a bit from his sandwich. "Honestly, so much was going on that it slipped our minds after the whole incident we had to go through along with the enemies and new kaiju that keep showing up."

"Yeah. Like that asshole yesterday who Gilda was working with." Rainbow became pissed thinking back to yesterday's events. "I won't forgive her for trying to kill Scootaloo and the girls."

"I'm with yah there." "Well, it could've just been the side effect from her having used the Gaia Memory." Negi added in after Applejack. "In W's world, using that type of Memory makes the user addictive to its power or go insane at some point. At least that'd be my guess from how she acted. Especially towards Sunset."

She raises a brow to that. "And this W uses these even with those side effects?"

"The Gaia Memories that W uses are different from how Arm's was. Plus, his Driver helped prevent any side effects from appearing on the user."

"Speaking of," Rarity paused looking around. "Where is Sunset? I don't believe I've seen her around today." "I hope she isn't in trouble."

Hearing Fluttershy say this made the group begin to wonder and worry for their friend until they hear "I'm sure she's fine."

The group look back to Drago. "What makes you so sure of that?" Negi asked curiously. "Because we aren't the only ones worried." While the others were confused by this answer, Drago looked around the cafeteria smiling from not seeing someone who clearly answers his question.

Drago sighs looking to Rainbow. "By the way, Rainbow can I ask you something?" "Sure, Drago. What's up?" "Have you found a drummer for your band yet?" He asked while Pinkie used his head as a drum.

Outside the School

Within the trees behind the parking lot, Sunset was sitting on a log with the trees surrounding her. Having a depressed expression as she looks through a yearbook.

She stops on a page listed as 'Biggest Meanie' with pictures of her and Molten together or by themselves. One in particular she kept her eyes on is a picture of her and Flash in the school hallways where she seems to be shoving Flash out of her way.

"You know I never blamed you for that, right?" Sunset almost falls off the log from having been startled. Hearing a laugh, she looks to her left, back towards the school to see Flash. "You don't have to be that surprised to hear me. Mind if I sit here?" He asked having walked up to her.

"Um...Sure. Go ahead." Sunset looks away as he sat down. "So, what are you doing all the way out here?" "I...I just didn't feel like being around everyone's gaze today and thought I could think of what I could do to change their opinion on me while I'm out her. But I just can't think of anything." Flash's heart aches seeing her eyes water up before curling up to hide her face. "Maybe I should just find a way back to Equestria and never come back."

She uncurls when she feels a hand on her right shoulder and gets pulled to her left. She sees that Flash had scooted closer to reach over to place his hand on her shoulder and pulled her close to rest her head on his shoulder.

"I'd be really sad if you were gone. But I wouldn't make you stay somewhere that's hurting you either." The two turn to face each other at the same moment that their faces came close to each other. A few seconds passed staring into each other's eyes before noticing what's happening and looked away from each other with their faces having reddened. Flash clears his throat. "I just wanted to let you know that no matter what you decide to do, you can count on my support. If you stay, I'll do all I can to help you make a new start. And if you go,...I'll-"

Flash freezes from Sunset suddenly hugging him. "I get it. Thanks Flash. I'm really glad to have you back in my life." She said with a grateful smile and then giggles after breaking the hug and seeing Flash still frozen by the sudden hug. "Hello? Flash? Anybody still awake in there?" She teased waving a hand in front of his face.

"Hm? Oh! Um...Sorry about that. Uh-" He had quickly stood up causing him to stumble a bit, making Sunset giggle at him. "I meant to do that." "Whatever you say, Mr. Cool Guy." "So...Maybe we should head back now. Our friends are probably wonder where we are."

Sunset didn't say anything and just stood up to begin walking back to the school with Flash. The two stayed quiet while walking back being stuck in their thoughts. Sunset was happy to know that besides her friends, Flash was around for support. But inside she also wondered if she really deserved this second chance and their support.

Flash on the other hand, seeing her from the corner of his eyes, could tell she was a bit happy but still bothered by the whole event. His fist tightened a bit as he thought back on how he wasn't able to do anything to Molten and could only watched as the guy did whatever he wanted. He never wants to see anyone he cares about get hurt that way again. Looking ahead to the school, an idea came to his mind.

The Dragons Cavern

Spike was in his with Rumble and the CMC. Once school had ended, the group had decided to head to the cafe to show them his room and his Wizard rings.

His room is on the first floor at the back left side of the building. Having a window on two of the walls, the room was furnished with a regular sized bed and a two-drawer nightstand next to it, a desk next to a bookshelf filled with mostly comic books and a few books, and a tv hanging on the wall with a rotating shelf of movies under it.

"Your room is pretty cool, Spike." Scootaloo commented. She and her friends were seated on the bed while Rumble sat on the desk's chair with Spike seated to his right on an extra chair he brought in.

"Didn't you just move here yesterday?" Rumble curiously asked. "How'd you get your room done so quickly?"

Spike smirks holding up his left has that has a silver ring that changes into the Wizard flame ring. "Hey, when you're a Rider of magic, things like moving stuff around is simple."

"So Spike, when did yah become a Rider? And where were yah this whole time?" Apple Bloom asked with Sweetie Belle nodding. "Yeah. There hasn't been any news about a Rider appearing anywhere else."

Spike sighs leaning back against his chair. "Well, technically I got my powers the same day as my brothers. As for why I wasn't around, let's just say my family is a bit secretive about anyone finding out about the Riders and the history behind them. Which is why they didn't want me leaving home until I had mastered my magic. But I got tired of waiting and staying on the sidelines while my brothers fought. So, I ran away from home to be here."

The girls gasped. "Spike, that horrible!" "Yeah. I mean it must be awesome to be a hero but that shouldn't mean it's okay to ditch your family." "They're right, Spike. Your family is probably worried ta the bone about yah." The CMC felt bad for how his family must be feeling.

"It's fine." He said waving off the thought. "My parents figured I was going to do this. So, about a day before I left, my mom warned me what would happen if I snuck off. She actually sent me a message last night saying that she and my dad are happy I'm trying to make my own path but to be prepared for the consequences the next time I see them."

Rumble's eyebrow raised. "What kind of consequences? And what are you doing?" He asked seeing him bring out a copy of the silver chain he wears as Wizard from the desk, along with a pouch full of rings.

"Who knows. It's scary what kind of things my mom can think of as punishments." Spike answered while shivering at the thought. "And Drago told me to put my rings into this chain. He said that Discord helped you friend Connor make items like these to store or Rider powers and items in."

"Oh yeah. I think Connor told me about that before when I asked him how he and the others are able to hide their belts." Rumble scratched his head for a second trying to remember. "He said that they enchanted the holders so that they switch in the power they need."

Curious, the CMC stood up and walked over to watch along with Rumble as Spike aligned all his rings into a circle around the chair. They all watched as the rings glowed along with the chain. The rings the flew placing themselves onto the chain with the last of the rings turning into light that went all into the last empty slot.

"Now to see if it worked." Spike mostly said to himself. Holding his hand over the empty slot, a ring with the image of a dragon head and wings at the top of a spinning twister-looking image. "Yup. That's the drill ring. it definitely works."

"That's so cool!" Scootaloo feeling excited from getting to see the Riders powers firsthand. "Hey Spike, do you have awesome forms like Connor and the others do?"

Spike takes three rings off the chain. "My suit doesn't really change much but the gem of the suit and element I use does change." He holds out the rings for his friends to see. Each were the same as the Flame Ring on having a visor the flips over them. The first is a blue diamond shaped gem. The second is a green upside-down triangle shaped gem. And the last is a yellow square shaped gem. "From what the belt said when I first used them, these are the Water, Hurricane, and Land Rings."

While the girls looked over the rings, a thought came to Rumble. "Where's everyone else? I thought they had gone ahead of us since they didn't come back with us."

"Applejack went back home with Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Sunset ta see if her bass guitar is still good ta play with in the band." Apple Bloom answered with Spike continuing. "My brother and Negi are at a park helping their friend Flash with something."

"Helping Flash with what?" Spike shrugs to Rumble. "I wonder what they could be doing."

"Who knows. Say," (Connect, Please!) Having paused to use his ring, Spike sticks his hand into the spell circle to pull out the Wizswordgun. "do you guys want to play a game?"

Everwood Park

"Ugh!" Flash had been knocked flat onto his back. They were in the middle of the park with Drago across from Flash with his leg up having done a side kick and then lowers. Negi was just on the side watching from next to a bench with his two friend's jackets lying on it.

Negi walks up to Flash as he stood up. "Are you really sure you want to do this? You may be able to face grunts by learning to fight, but kaiju would still be out of the question." "Yes. I can't let the same thing happen again. I don't want to be on the sidelines ever again if someone tries hurting Sunset or any of my friends."

Negi didn't say anything, but instead goes back to the bench as Drago got into a fighting stance. "Then let's continue." Flash does as he says and runs up to him throwing punches. Drago stood his ground holding up both his arms to block each of the punches.

"When facing actual opponents, your punches and kick need to have power to back them up. So, make sure to rotate your torso when throwing punches. Like this." Following his own words and ducking under Flash's next punch, Drago lands a powerful punch in his friend's gut and knocks the air out of him as the guy fell to his knees gasping for air. "Punches like these will help leave an opponent open for another hit. But it's best to save that for when the enemy has an opening."

"C-Can't you teach me this in a different way?" Flash requested between breaths.

Drago shook his head while taking a few steps back. "Sorry Flash, but this is the way I was taught." "And I can't teach you until I've seen what you can do and the limits of your body." Drago and Negi answered him. "Meaning you can quit now or prepare for some hurt. But just know, this is more about getting you used to fighting first. The real learning comes after that."

Not sure of what to do, Flash thought on the idea for a moment before remembering about earlier when he had talked to Sunset. He had been happy to see her smile at him again and the hug from her he swore he could still feel.

Now with a determination filling his spirit, Flash stands after regaining his breath and holds up his fists. "I'm not quitting until I at least land one punch on you."

Drago grins preparing himself along with Flash before the two ran charging at each other with fists at the ready.

Within the City

Walking down the lively streets of Canterlot City, Applejack and her friends seemed to be in search of something or a place from how they looked up or straight at shop signs as they moved along the sidewalk.

Leading the head of the group is Applejack with Rainbow Dash next to her, Fluttershy and Rarity in the middle, and Sunset following from the back with Pinkie Pie.

"I still can't believe granny sold off my bass fer two dollars without so much as askin' me if it was alright. And to them swindlin' snakes, the Flim Flam Brothers none the less." Applejack spoke in an irritated tone. "Knowin' them, they ain't gonna make gettin' my bass back easy as bakin' apple pie."

"I'm sure you'll be able to reason with them darling." "And if they don't then at least you've got us to back you up." Rainbow spoke out after Rarity tried reassuring their friend.

Applejack deadpans at Rainbow with an eyebrow raised. "Didn't yah say once that they conned yah inta buying an autographed limited-edition Daring Do book that turned out ta be a regular Daring Do book with ah forged signature?"

Rainbow said nothing but frowned with a blush and looks away crossing her arms. "I'll get those assholes back for that one day." She mumbled under her breath.

"What was the name of the shop again?" Sunset asked while looking at stores.

"The Flim Flam Brothers' Everything-Under-The-Sun Emporium." Pinkie spoke out answering. "You can actually remember such a long ridicules name?" "Of course. It even says so itself."

Having answered Sunset's question, Pinkie points across the street making the others follow the direction. It led to a pawn shop with the name on a sign in front of the store in huge red letters. Finally finding the shop, the group made their way across the street and entered the shop. The first thing they hear upon entering is the sound of the bell hanging above the door.

The pawn shop is filled with an assortment of different objects such as a golf club, a suit, pogo stick, musical instruments, and many more things. They stood at the entrance while looking around for a second before two identical men jumped out from across the shop with one shouting "Welcome to the grand opening of the Flim Flam Brothers' Everything Under the Sun Emporium!"

Their outfits being the same white shirts with blue stripes, a black bow tie, and white pants but with the exception of their shoes being different colors. Flim wore white and blue shoes while flam had red and white shoes.

"If you want it...we've got it!" Flam had continued their sale pitch with Flim having joined in at the end jumping into his brother's arms. "Need a pogo stick?" "A bowling ball?" "A stuffed clown?" "Whatever this is?" The brothers had shown said object with the last being a strainer with lights and wires attached to it.

"I'd like that bass." Applejack with a smile motioned towards a bass guitar rested on a stand with a saxophone and electrical keyboard next to it with a disco ball above between them.

While Flim quickly brought the bass over, Sunset and Fluttershy decided to look around while their friends got Applejack's bass back.

"I can give you this base for a non-negotiable price of one thousand dollars." Flim stated the price holding the bass out with him and his brother both showing toothy grins.

Sunset and Fluttershy could hear their friends behind them begin to argue with the swindling brothers about the outrageous price. Fluttershy was looking at items on the walls while Sunset looked at the display cases. She didn't find anything of interest to her until getting to the middle of the top shelf and goes wide eyed.

"Um...Sunset." She spoke out as a whisper to Sunset who makes a confused look at a toy doll of what looks like a kaiju made of many eyes with a single giant eye acting as the face. "Someone had a weird taste to make th- Wha?!" Sunset said mostly to herself before continuing looking through the display but goes wide eyed at the section below the doll.

In the display case are three Fullbottles and a Core Medal. The Fullbottles consisted of a brown dog, a gray mic, and a red dryer with a purple scorpion medal in front of the three. "What in the hell are these doing here?" "Sunset." Fluttershy forces her head to turn towards what has her shock which helps Sunset understand her friend without arguing or asking.

On the top shelf lying next to a black card case, sat a holder with four Progrisekeys attached in a row. From top to bottom they see a red tiger, orange cheetah, blue wolf, and a cyan penguin.

The two looked to each other and turned about to rush back to their friends until a bass sound burst knocked them over. Recovering from the sudden burst, they looked to the source to find that Applejack had ponied up with the bass having gained new linings in the front and a red apple marks.

The brothers had been left standing speechless with their hair blown back by the sound burst. "Perhaps this is her bass." Is all Flim says as Applejack holds out 2 dollars with a grin. But the two recover from their stupor as Flim and his brother proceed to say, "But there are still the transportation costs and overhead." "Don't forget the stocking fees." "Wouldn't dream of it, brother."

Applejack sighs in defeat with her pony ears flopping down as she looked to the floor. Seeing their friend down, the three looked to the brothers with angered expressions and are about to tell them off, but Sunset and Fluttershy covered their mouths with their hands.

"Will you excuse us for a moment?" Sunset asked with a nervous smile as she and Fluttershy took steps moving past Flim and Flam to go towards the display case after handing them back the bass, pulling their friends along with them. "We need a moment to think the offer over." She didn't wait for the brothers to respond and just left back over to the display.

"What the hell Sunset!" Rainbow nearly shouted pissed. "I was about to give those assholes a piece of my mind."

Rarity nodded agreeing with their rainbow haired friend. "Yes. Those crooks need to be taught a lesson."

"I'm sorry about that, but we found something equally important that we need to do something about." "What do yah mean?" Sunset and Fluttershy gestured to the display case and shelf to answer the question.

"What could possibly be...just as...Oh." Rainbow voice trailed off. She and the others became just as surprised as their friends had been from the sight of the Rider powers. As well as hear Pinkie gasp. "IT'S-" The Rainbow and the group quickly covered her mouth before looking back to Sunset. "Why are these here?!" "And why in the den of the slimiest of snakes in the city of all the gosh darn places?" Rainbow and Applejack questioned.

"I don't know." Sunset answered. "But we need to get them out of here before they figure out what they've gotten their hands on."

"Maybe we should call Drago and Negi." Rarity suggested. "Maybe they could help us come up with a plan to get their powers back."

Applejack shook her head while crossing her arms. "Nah. The second them snakes think someone's taken an interest in them, they'll start puttin' up a high price more faster than Rainbow can win a race." "Hey!"

"Oh!Oh!Oh! I know!" Pinkie shouted hopping in place. "The guys can just come transformed and take the powers without a problem." Fluttershy felt a bit of guilt just of the thought. "That wouldn't be a nice thing to do." "But they're big meanie pants."

Sunset ceases Pinkie's hopping, having place a hand on her shoulder. "No. Fluttershy is right. They already have enough trouble with the police. If they were to do that, the public would just start thinking of them as dangerous."

Rainbow sighs with an annoyed expression. "Then what can we do?"

As if on cue they all receive messages. They open the message to see it's from Zea only saying, 'Danger'. Maps then opens up to show them a dot moving quickly towards their direction from the other side of the city.

"Are we getting pizza?" Pinkie asked smiling. "If we're using it to distract them, I have whip cream and gummies we can use to make it taste even better. What?" She asked when her friends gave her confused looks with the exception of Rarity who seems grossed out.

"So, now we have a bad guy coming here. I was hoping to beat the hell out of Molten or Gilda." Rainbow eagerly spoke cracking her knuckles.

Aside from the two, Rarity and the rest of the group grew worried. "Maybe it'd be best if we just leave. I'd rather not run into either of those two when we're on our own."

"But we can't just let the get the powers." "Um...girls." Fluttershy tried speaking up as Rainbow argued with the fashionista.

Applejack nods agreeing. "That would also mean more kaiju ta be created. Like the lion yesterday."

"The dot-" "And do what exactly?" Sunset interrupted Fluttershy crossing her arms with a brow raised. "We can't exactly just steal them. And we don't have any way of facing whoever is heading here."

"I think we should-" "Maybe they'd be willing to give us one or two of the Fullbottles or Progrisekeys if I give them some helpful opinions on how to make their shop more welcoming." Once again, the shy girl is interrupted. This time by Rarity trying to suggest an idea.

Aside from Pinkie, the group began arguing while Fluttershy begins to tremble looking back and forth between the shop's windows and her phone seeing the dot about to arrive. Though once it reached them, nothing and/or no one could be seen anywhere in front of the shop which helped calm her a bit after a moment but also confused her.

"Um...Girls, there isn't-" "Look all I'm say is that we can just have someone distract the two while the rest of us snatch the bottles, medal, and keys." Rainbow spoke over Fluttershy. Annoyed by this, she gives an annoyed frown to the rainbow haired girl.

While Applejack argued back saying "Rainbow, they'd easily figure out it's us that stole them. I pretty sure we're the only souls that even bothered ta come in here today.", someone takes the Progrisekeys from the self and then grabs the medal and Fullbottles from the display case.

The same person taps Pinkie's shoulder and hands her the items the second she turned to face them. "Hold these for me, please." "Okie dokie loki." She responds happily without looking at the person who sounded like a man. She turns back to face her friends while the man moved next to Fluttershy without her noticing, wraps an arm around on her shoulder and pulled her into himself causing her to squeak.

"Now girls, don't you know it's not nice to ignore a friend."

All the girls freeze with fear at the familiar voice. They all turn to the source of the voice to find Fluttershy trembling with fear as she's being held close by Faust who's facing towards them with a mischievous grin spread across his face.

"What's the matter? I thought you'd all be happy to see me?" He spoke in a sarcastic tone.

Faust takes notice of Applejack, Rainbow and Sunset readying themselves to jump him all at once but are interrupted by the Flim and Flam Brothers suddenly sliding in between him and the girls.

"Welcome to the Flim Flam Brothers'-" "Ah. So, you're the brothers I've heard so greatly about." Faust spoke up cutting off Flim while releasing Fluttershy and letting Rainbow quickly get her. "I actually came here to suggest an offer a friend of mine wanted to pitch."

"Oh really?" Flam and his brother were intrigued and curious by this. "So, what is this offer your friend is wanting to talk about?" Faust answers the question by holding out two Gaia Memories. One had an 'M' in the shape of a volcano with the magma inside making the middle and the other is a 'V' in the shape of an arm. (MAGMA!) (VIOLENCE!) "What are you-"

Faust throws the Memories at the two, cutting Flam off as the Memories landed and fused into their necks. Flim's body began to morph, changing shape while his brother Flam became covered in flames.

Flim transforms into a big gray muscley Dopant with bits of metal sticking out of his body and round metal head. His left arm is what looks to be a wrecking ball. And Flam had become a Dopant's arms, legs, chest and skull face being made of molten rock and the rest of magma flames.

"Well, truthfully you're all part of an offer for the Riders." Faust said looking to the girls. "Now if you'll be so kind as to divide into three groups along with the Riders powers."

"And why would we listen to a cruel fiend like you?" Rarity questioned with her and her friends glaring at him. Except for Fluttershy who's hiding behind Rainbow.

"It's either that or face my two new friends here." Faust motioned towards the two Dopants who are standing in place like mindless drones.

Sunset takes a step forward. "Alright then, we'll bite. What exactly do you want?"

The question causes him to chuckle darkly. "Nothing much. I just want to see how good of heroes your dear Riders are. And to do that, each of your groups will be chased by a kaiju that'll be trying to retrieve the Rider powers." Faust instructed making Rainbow raise a brow.

"You must be missing something in that head of yours. Two kaiju can't chase three groups. You're one kaiju short."

"You're completely right." In his left hand, Faust holds up his hand to show the girls the scorpion Core Medal, a red scorpion Fullbottle, and a purple scorpion Progrisekey. "Which is why two of you lucky girls will get to meet the next Nameless."

A chill runs down the girls spines as they recall yesterday's events. Remembering how dangerous Nameless Leo was from the destruction it caused and how difficult it was for Zero-One to defeat. They could only how a scorpion will be and what it'll be able to do.

"I'm giving you a 2-minute head start. Be sure each of you holds a bottle or key. Or you won't believe how quickly they'll kill you without the power." He warned before his smile turned into a veil grin. "Now...run."

The girls don't even waist time, running out the building and quickly hand each other one of the Riders powers while in front of the shop before running in three different directions.

Faust walked out of the shop a second later to watch the girls run with a devilish smile. He watched Sunset and Applejack run after having gone across the street with the tiger and penguin Progrisekeys at hand, Rainbow and Pinkie had left to his right with the three Fullbottles, while Fluttershy and Rarity went to the left with the wolf and cheetah Progrisekeys.

Seeming to make a decision, Faust banishes the gun and then brings out an orb like the one from the mall. "May the game begin." He looks back to the shop. "Now for the real prize."

While they ran, Sunset pulled out her phone and started typing a message.

The Dragons Cavern

Spread all around the cafe, sets of five books were left standing on top shelves, chairs, tables and anywhere else they could be left standing away from the cafe's entrance.

Spike and his friends are standing at the entrance where he pushes up the thumb of the WizarSwordGun's hand to open it making it start a jingle that continuously says (Come on a Shooting, Shake Hands!) until he holds his right hand wearing a ring, having an image of dragon's head with a row heads, over the hand. (Copy, Please!)

Two red spell circles appear, one passing through the gun while the other makes a copy of the weapon that Spike took ahold of in his right hand. He spins the copy gun in his hand.

"Okay, so the objective of the game will be whoever can gain the most points by shooting down the targets." Spike points over to the books. "The first two are 1 point, the second ones are worth 3 points and the middle is 5 points. We each get ten shots. The one with the highest score will be the winner. So, who wants to go first?"

"I'm up for it." Scootaloo immediately answered saying. "I've been wanting to see what it's like to use your guy's weapons." She takes ahold of the copy feeling the weight of it. "Wow. It's kind of heavy."

"Well yeah. Even I've hardly ever seen and used any weapon this size that didn't have some weight to them. Oh well. Let's get started." In three seconds, Spike aims and shoots down the center book on the farthest shelf at the back which both amazed and shocked his friends. "Do you think you can keep up?"

Scootaloo looked back to him with a blank expression for a second before she shook herself out of the daze and gave him a confident grin. "Bring. It. On."

As they began to play their game, Spike's phone that was left on silent and under his jacket onto of a table behind them lit up and vibrates from receiving a message.

Everwood Park

Still at the same spot, Negi was watching Flash still trying to land a punch on Drago. He was getting close at times on landing the hit, but Drago managed to block or counter the hits.

Flash brings his arms up and close to himself to guard against his friend's kick that was aimed to the side of his head. He tries to go for punch right then only for Drago to catch his wrist and pulls on it to bring Flash into a headbutt. The pain from their foreheads having slammed into each other makes Flash take a step back, which his friend takes advantage of to pull him in again and deliver an elbow to the chest. Drago then turned and threw Flash over his shoulder, making him land flat on his back.

"If that's the best you can manage Flash, then I think it'd be better if you just stayed on the sidelines." Drago said crossing his arms. "You'll just be throwing away your life. And that's something Sunset doesn't need to bring her down more."

He watched as Flash shankingly stood back onto his feet and is surprised when his friend instantly sprints towards him. Taking steps back, Drago kept block the hits with his arms as Flash swings his fists wildly. He had to admit that Flash has a burning spirit from how he hasn't given up on landing the punch and could swear he could feel the heat from it.

Drago thought this until he realized he was actually feeling heat as Flash's fists hit against his arms. Jumping back from the next swings, Drago took a few steps back waving both his arms to cool them down.

"Are you okay there, Drago?" He looks unsure at his arms and then to Flash, who seems confused by his actions. "Why are you looking at me like that? Did I do something wrong?"

"Flash, are you-" Drago cuts himself off and begins looking around with Negi doing the same. "Did you feel that?" "Yeah. Something is wrong."

Negi's Primal Cell makes an emergency ring from his pocket with Drago's doing the same from his jacket. He pulls it out of his pocket to see it's an emergency message from Sunset. "The girls are in trouble."

Tossing Drago's jacket to him, the two are about to run to their bikes but stop finding Brutus standing across from them.

"Brutus, get out of our way." Drago spoke out loud. "We don't have time to deal with you right now."

"You make it sound like you have a choice, Jurassic." The strong man said while holding out the strawberry lock and pushes the trigger on the side. (Ichigo!) The lock called out with a zipper appearing and opening up next to Brutus.

"A Lockseed." Pointing out the name, Negi could see a different forest within the zipper. "The Helheim Forest? It exists in this world?"

Brutus chuckles at their surprise while six Riotoozes spawned from the ground. "You wouldn't believe what realms became connected once the Riders powers entered this world." He then shoves the Lockseed into one of the Riotoozes. "These shall be your opponent, Jurassic."

A deformed strawberry looking ninja armor formed on the Riotooze's shoulders and chest. The Riotooze then summons two kunai with a strawberry design on them. Brutus brings out 5 other Lockseeds and throws them into the rest of the grunts as they announced themselves. (Banana!) (Mango!) (Donguri!) (Budou!) (Durian!)

Each of them gained different types of deformed armors like the first. The firsts are a banana and mango looking armors resembling European knights with one having a banana spear and the other a diced mango long-handled mace. The third is an acorn medieval squire armed with a stylized acorn war hammer. Another is a grape Chinese soldier's armor with a grape gun that seems like a mix of a revolver and gatling gun. The last is a durian Roman gladiator armor with twin broadswords having serrated edges.

"What are those?" "Armors that Riders from Gaim's world uses." Negi spoke out answering Flash's question. "I'm guessing this is the only way you could use the Lockseeds, Brutus."

"For now, at least. Though I have a different surprise for you, Zero-One."

Negi notices right then a second too late as white tentacles wrapped around his arms and legs from behind him. Before Drago could help him, Negi is dragged off.

"Negi!" Drago wanted to chase after him but gets blocked off by the Riotoozes. "Damn it. Flash, you're gonna have to go ahead of us." "But the others." "Brutus, isn't really leaving us a choice here. You and Spike will have to try dealing with it on your own."

Flash wants to argue against him but knows he's right. The girls might not last until Drago and Negi are able to defeat this many enemies.

"Go now." Drago told him in an ordering tone as he brought out his Driver. (Alpha Tyranno! Infusion!) "Henshin!" (Core Blaze! Stomp! Slam! Roar! Alpha Tyranno!) Flash runs off while the obsidian wall came up and crumbles around Drago to transform him into Jurassic.

"I have to admit, I'm interested to see what you can do now." (Tyranno Sword!) Jurassic summons out his weapon hit the Banana Riotooze's spear to the side as it tried striking at him. He tries swinging at it, but Banana ducks under it.

He was about to try again but jumps back avoiding the Grape Riotooze's gun shots. Jurassic doesn't get much time to react the moment he lands as the Durian Riotooze shoves his sword out of the way to hit him with two strikes from its swords. (Slam!) The Rider blocks and shoves the Riotooze's next hit back before hitting it to the side with a red aura tail.

(Stomp!) With an aura rex leg, Jurassic runs up to the Mango Riotooze and jumps kicks it making it stumble back. Taking notice of the Strawberry Riotooze to his left, Jurassic hits the kunais to the side until Acorn Riotooze hit his sword out of his hand and beats its hammer against the Rider's chest with sparks flying off from each hit. Jurassic doesn't get the chance to recover after the Mango Riotooze lands a hit with its mace on him as he stumbled back and was sent flying into a tree.

"You guys aren't going to make this easy, are you." While speaking to the grunts, he brings out his Primal Cell and inputs the codes for armaments. (Ceratosaurus! Arcocanthosaurus! Dail in! Core Armament! Cerato Blade! Arcocan Burner!) The armaments appeared with Cerato attaching to the right and Arcocan to the left. "But this is far from over."

Meanwhile

Not that far from Jurassic, Negi is dragged to another part of the park with the tentacles releasing him and retracting into a lake.

"If I'm guessing right, I'm facing my type of enemies." (Zero-One Driver) Negi spoke to himself while putting on the Zero-One Driver.

Then what looks similar to a Humagear bursts out of the water. Its wearing a belt with a white looking Progrisekey having image of a creature that looks similar to a squid and 'NEOHI MAGIA' and 'TYPE:ZETSUMETSU' on it and red wires jamming into it. The upper part of its body matches the key's image and color from the face being white with yellow round eyes and two tentacles hanging from its head like antenna. On the back are six tentacles acting like a cape with silver pointed tips.

"Magia." Negi looks around as three other Magia walk up and surrounding him. "Should've guessed they'd even have the Zetsumetsukeys."

The right Magia with a blue key saying 'ARSINO MAGIA' has blue tough looking armor and a split horn on its head. Behind him is a Magia with a brown key saying 'MAMMOTH MAGIA' has its upper body covered in a bronze armor. The chest has a mammoth face with the trunk and tusks sticking out. The left with a green key having 'BEROTHA MAGIA' has a green mantis looking head and twin daggers that are being held downward.

Looking back to Mammoth, he sees Molten walking up to them. "I hope you don't mind returning what I lent you." Knowing what he means, Negi pulls the hedgehog Progrisekey from his pocket and tosses it over to the magma haired villain, who sets his own belt. (Raidriser!) "Ready to begin?"

(Jump! Authorize!) (Revolver!) "Henshin!" Negi shouted after hopper appeared and they both set the Progrisekeys into the Drivers. The Zero-One suit forms onto Negi with hopper forming into armor on him while pipes and a green DNA strap covered Molten, transforming him into a Raider. (Progrise! To-bia ga rise! Rising Hopper! A jump to the sky turns to a Rider Kick.) (Raid Rise! Gatling Hedgehog! Infinite spines shoot towards the enemy.)

He was a Raider with most of his mechanical body being white. On his shoulders are long green shoulder pads with spikes. The back of the wrists and his back also had green spikes coming out of them. And the upper part of the head is green and shaped like a hedgehog with spikes pointed back.

(Blade Rise!) The Attache Calibur called out as Zero-One grabbed and opened it after his Driver summoned it out. Holding the sword to his side, the Rider remains still, waiting for them to make the first move.

Arsino and Mammoth are the first to charge at him. Arsino aims its horns down at Zero-One while energy built up in Mammoth's tusks. The Rider moves to the side at last second, avoiding the Arsino and slashing at its back causing it to stumble to the floor.

Turning to face towards Mammoth, Zero-One holds up the sword in defense as the Magia rammed into him. (Strong! Progrisekey confirmed. Ready to utilize. Hercules beetle's ability.) He had quickly inserted the key into the sword while being dragged back. Zero-One then grabs onto the tusk before he lets himself drop to the floor while using the Magia's own strength throw it into the air. (Amazing! Kaban Strash!) Zero-One launched the attack after quickly rolling back to his feet, hitting Mammoth down towards the ground with a huge beetle horn.

"Zero-One!" Hedgehog shout running up to the Rider with the spikes on his wrists extending. Seeing this, Zero-One does the same with having his sword ready. The two jump up at each other and slashed each other as they pass by one another causing sparks to fly off them.

"Not good enough." They turned to face each other after landing but the Raider is quicker and hit the Rider across the chest with spikes. Though as Zero-One rolled to the ground, he summons out his Progrise Gunner and shot at the Raider 5 times while rolling. "Gah!"

Each shot made Hedgehog take a step back, but he still remained standing. He looks back with a low growl to see the other two Magia with Neohi holding two of its tentacle's tips like daggers attacking Zero-One. The Rider does well on fending off and countering the two. "Ill be the one to defeat you, Zero-One." Hedgehog said mostly to himself before running up to them.

Within the City

Rainbow and Pinkie were running, making their way down the sidewalk either running around or through some people while shouting "Run!" and "It's a kaiju!" at the top of their lungs.

Pinkie stops shouting to ask "Do you think we'll be lucky enough to get the scorpion?"

"Why in the hell would you want that thing to come after us?"

"Because the big scary scorpion is probably gonna be really really fast at moving. And since we're faster than the others, it'd be better for it to come after us. Plus"

Rainbow was giving her a questionable look. "Plus what?"

"I was thinking maybe Spike could make it smaller with his magic so I could keep it as a pet." She admitted with a smile.

"Pinkie, you can't be-" Rainbow is cut off by the screams of people behind them. "Please tell me that isn't the scorpion."

Pinkie turns running backwards with her eye squinted to see what's happening behind them. Her eyes shoot open and turns back around to run normally but at a faster pace. "Never mind! Too scary!"

Curiosity getting the better of her, Rainbow looks back and sees, aside from people running away and out of their cars, a huge transparent dark purple scorpion with red markings ramming and hitting cars out of its way. Like leo it has bits of concrete sticking out, along with car parts. What makes it different from regular scorpions is the three tail stingers that extend to stab through some cars to fling them to the side.

Seeing this, she decides to follow Pinkie's lead and speeds up to match her. "Are you happy now, Pinkie?"

"Kinda. At least it's not after Fluttershy. She would've been scared beyond belief seeing that big guy." "Just shut up and run faster, Pinkie!"

The two look back for a second and notice Scorpion gaining on them. Rainbow quickly looks around with the only option she sees being an alleyway.

"This way." They run into the alleyway with Scorpion stopping at it not being able to fit. "Ha! How's that, bumble bee?" Rainbow shouted mocking it.

The Nameless tries squeezing into the alley but quickly gives up on the attempt and instead climbs onto the buildings to continue its pursuit. Scorpion ran across or climbed over some of the buildings while smashing its way through taller ones. It takes Scorpion less then seconds to have caught up with Rainbow and Pinkie which it then proceeds to try attacking them with its tails.

"Can't this asshole take a hint!" Rainbow ducks while running as the stinger passed over her head, stabbing into the wall. "Pinkie, do you know how to get rid of scorpions? Or maybe a huge boot."

Her friend actually seemed to think of it despite the sarcasm behind it while ducking and jumping over the stingers. "Nopie. Nada."

Looking ahead, Scorpion lifts its three tails and shoots a purple liquid from them as the girls were about to reach the end of the alley. Two of the shots hit the ground around Rainbow and Pinkie who make it to the sidewalk and the third shot hit the ground behind them leading back to the alley.

The two watched as the ground, walls, light pole, power line and other objects around them turn purple with a black mist emitting off them.

Pinkie was about to gasp but stopped herself by covering her mouth with her shit. "Rainbow, I think this is poison! Don't breathe it any of it!" Rainbow took to the warning and covered her mouth as well.

The Nameless jumps off the buildings, landing in front of the girls and makes a type of hiss noise at them. Not seeing any way out, the two hug closing their eyes, waiting for the inevitable as Scorpion reaches for them with its pincers.

But it never comes. Instead, they hear Scorpion screech in pain. They open their eyes to see a stream of fire being shot at it from above them. Looking up, they are happy to find Build hovering above them with his form being phoenix on one side to shoot the fire. While the other side is a teal armor with left arm being a vacuum with long pole head, a tube leading to a trash converter on the shoulder, and visor shaped as a vacuum.

"BUILD!!" The two shouted happily. They covered their faces when he uses the vacuum arm to suck up all the liquid poison and poisoned air with the objects around returning to their normal color. Build ceases shooting fire right when he hears a lion's roar. Not needing to defend itself anymore, Scorpion readies to attack Build but OOO comes jumping into the air on his bike and ramming the Nameless from the side. "OOO!"

"We leave you guys alone for a day and already you guys are getting yourselves into trouble." Build says while landing next to them.

OOO drives up stopping next to them. "But we're glad to see you both are alright."

"You would not believe what happened since you've been gone." Rainbow and Pinkie said at the same time and began speaking over one another. "There was this asshole yesterday that created a kaiju with a gun!/Our world's Spike is a Kamen Rider too named Wizard!"

"One at a time!" Build shouted agitated by the two before their focus turns back to Scorpion making noises as it recovered. "But that can can wait." (RabbitTank!Yeah!) Having switched back to his base form, summons his bike. "Get on."

Not wasting anytime, Rainbow hops onto Build's bike along with him while Pinkie got on OOO's. The Riders make tracks racing down the street with Scorpion chasing after them.

"Anyone mind explaining what that thing is."

"Short version, that thing was created using your guys powers related to scorpions." Rainbow answered with Pinkie shouting over to add "It's called Nameless Scorpion."

Build turning to look at Scorpion and then to Rainbow from the corner of his eyes before looking back forward. "Never a dull day around here. Know of any places we can lure it to?"

Rainbow and Pinkie brainstormed on the best place they could think of that would be the best place to lure the Nameless and confront it without getting people caught in the crossfire.

"Ohohoh! I know where we can go!" Pinkie exclaimed. "We can take Scorpion to an amusement park that's still being built." "Won't the people working on it get dragged into the mess?" "Nope. The park is on hold until the final plans for it are made. So, it's completely deserted."

"Then that's wh ere we'll go." Build pulls out his Primal Cell and quickly looks up the direction of said park. "Alright. OOO, follow me."

With a nod from his fellow Rider, Build takes lead as they made their way through the streets with people in cars swerving out of the way in fear of Scorpion.

Meanwhile

The sounds of screaming filled the area around as people ran away from an open spaced shopping center plaza as balls of fire raining down smashing into objects, either setting them aflame or destroying them. The source of the destruction being Magma Dopant with fireballs being shot out from its body.

Magma suddenly stopped in his tracks, along with ceasing his attack. He looked around the area trying to locate targets he was tasked to destroy. Walking around in search, the Dopant didn't notice of Sunset and Applejack next him to the left, peeking out from inside a spa and salon called La Ti Da Spa.

"Okay, not that I'm not glad everybody is able to get away safely but" Sunset said while they watched Magma look around for them before hiding again. "why isn't that thing leaving? I'm pretty sure he didn't see us stop around here."

"Beats me. That thing is more persistent than Pinkie is fer throwin' parties fer everyone." Sunset pondered on the thought as Applejack spoke until she remembered what they have.

She pulls out the penguin key. "The Progrisekeys. He must be able to feel them close by."

"Why that no good snake. He knows we wouldn't leave the keys and bottles fer him ta take. And I'm sure hothead out there would roast us alive if we tried leavin' without the keys." Applejack spoke in annoyed tone while pulling out the tiger key, being both ticked off and worried about the situation they're in. "Have any of the guys answered back yet?"

"Flash said Drago and Negi have their hands full on their end but that he's on his way to lend a hand. As for Spike, he hasn't responded back at all. What could he be doing at a time like this?" She was about to try send another message but stops when the building shakes along with an explosive sound coming from outside.

Curious and a bit scared, the two peek back out finding Magma facing towards a destroyed building with a magma trail leading to it. Before they could figure out what happened, the Dopant looks to the next building while his body became engulfed by fire, then launches an eruption blast towards the build, and destroys it completely with a magma trail leading to it. They get worried seeing Magma continues this process from their building being the fifth if it continues down the row.

"We got ta think of somethin' fast or we'll be next on the BBQ." Sunset thought for a moment with an explosion sound in the background. She then hands her friend the penguin key. "Hey, what are yah-"

"I'm going to distract him. Once I do, run and get the keys to Zero-One. He'll probably need one of these." "And how yah plan on distractin' that movin' volcano?" Another explosive sound could be heard. "I'm not sure. Maybe I could use a fire extinguisher."

"That ain't even a plan. Plus, I doubt an extinguisher will work on that. And I did literally say it's a walkin' volcano." She sighs in frustration. "We oughta get Connor ta make somethin' fer situations like these."

A third explosion is heard along with the building shaking. "Seems like you girls are in a pickle." The two jumped, startled by the Faust's voice and turn to find him laying sideways on the counter with his head resting on his right hand. "That's pretty rude. Is that how you treat friends?"

"Friends? I'd rather befriend the volcano out there then be yer friend." "What do you want? Are you going to add another kaiju?" He answers Sunset by tossing a Raidriser in front of their feet which confuses the two. "What are yah playin' at here?" Applejack questioned not liking how things are going.

"Nothing at all." With a smile, Faust sits up and hop off the counter. "Just thought I should give you a fighting chance. Especially since you've been following the rules so well."

They glare at him. "By one of us becoming a kaiju like Molten? No thanks." Sunset ends kicking the Raidriser back to him. "We'll take our chances without your help."

"Suit yourselves. Don't worry. The soundproof barrier took itself down."

The girls eyes go wide with dread hearing the last part while Faust picks up the belt. They take notice of a light coming from behind them and turn to the window to see Magma outside with his attack charged and ready.

They look to Faust. "You get a ten second head start the moment you walk out. Ciao." With a wave goodbye, he disappears into darkness.

Turing back to see the Dopant actually not do nothing. Not needing to say anything, the two run out the building and away from the plaza as fast as they could. They manage to make it to the parking lot hoping that the Dopant wouldn't be as fast as them. Unfortunately for them, Magma doesn't need to be as fast. Getting to the parking lot, Magma launches fireballs that fly over the girls and hits destroying multiple cars in front of the two, with the explosions knocking them to the floor.

Sunset groaned. "Applejack? Are you okay?" "I'm fine." "Raaahhh!" Remembering, they turned to Magma who's standing a couple feet away from them with flames building up around it. "Come on. We have to-" Helping Applejack up, Sunset was about to run with her but everywhere aside towards Magma was covered in fire and burning cars. Looking back, they brace themselves after seeing the Dopant about to launch its attack.

*Car honk* Magma stops to look to his left, with the girls look in the same direction, to see Flash drive into the parking lot and head straight towards him at full speed. He turns launching the attack towards the car. Flash jumps out of the car at last second, rolling onto the ground and into a car while his car gets destroyed by the attack. But from its speed, lets the wreckage flip, rolling forward and into the Dopant, slamming him into another car along with it.

"Flash!" Sunset called out worried. She and Applejack ran over to their friend and helped him back to his feet. "What were you thinking? Do you realize how dangerous that was?"

"Not really." He admitted scratching the back of his head. "The only thing that came to mind besides saving you was ramming into the kaiju."

"Simple but it certainly was effective." Applejack complimented.

Sunset sighs before giving Flash a smile and hugs him. "Thanks for the help."

"Anytime." He said returning the smile. "We should get going before that guy wakes up." Nodding in agreement, they all decide to run back towards the direction Flash had come from.

They don't get very far as flames bursts pushes the two cars off of Magma, with the Dopant standing up and launching fireballs towards the group. Magma watched them notice the attack too late and disappear in a fiery explosion. With his job done, Magma walks up to the flames to collect the Progrisekeys.

(FLAME, PLEASE!) The Dopant froze in his tracks as the flame from the attack began to get swallowed up by something inside. (HI-HI, HI-HI, HI!) It's revealed to be Wizard with WizarSwordGun at hand. He had used his transformation to save his friends by using the spell circle to swallow up the fire before they could get hurt. "Ra-ugh!" Magma was about to change at them but is knocked to his back from Wizard having shot him.

"Sorry for the being last." Wizard turned looking to his friends. "Are you guys okay?"

"Where in the darn heck have yah been?" Applejack questioned in a scolding tone. "Sunset's been tryin' ta get ahold of yah this whole time."

Wizard rubbed the back of his head. "Long story short, I had my phone charging while practicing using the WizarSwordGun with Rumble and the girls."

The Rider felt a bit uneasy when Applejack had a shocked expression at first from what he just said but then charged to a mad one the next second. "What exactly were yah havin' them do?"

"It's okay. They were actually practicing with me. You see, I made copies of my weapon and we-" He stopped himself when he saw her expression harden. "I-I should focus back on the kaiju." Wizard looks back to Magma in time as it stood up. "Well, shall we get started?"

"Raahhh!" The Dopant roared before the two charged towards each other with Wizard changing his weapon to sword mode. Getting close, the Rider jumps flipping over Magma and lands a slash across his back causing him to stumble a bit. "Ugh!"

Flash leans over to Sunset. "Hey, I know Drago and the guys are the other Riders, but who is this one?" He asked while watching Wizard land multiple slashes on Magma.

"Oh, that's right. You weren't at the mall yesterday. That's Drago's little brother Spike. Also know to us as Kamen Rider Wizard." Sunset answered as Wizard switched his right hand's ring and flipped the belt's hand. (Lupachi Magic Touch Go! Lupachi- Extend, Please!)

Putting his arm through the spell circle, it stretches towards Magma and wraps around him. Wizard then begins slamming the Dopant around against a couple buildings before tossing him to the side.

"How about we change the stage." Wizard switched his right ring again before flipping the belt's hand twice. (Lupachi Magic- Teleport, Please!) He has the spell teleport himself, Magma and his friends to a different location.

In Another Part of the City

Parents carrying their children came running out of a public park. Within the park, Violence was searching around a playground area for his targets as he smashed into splinters before continuing his search. Though he failed to hear a squeak of fear come from a nearby bush behind him.

Rarity was covering Fluttershy's mouth from the other side of a row of bushes. Fluttershy had gotten scared by the loud noise of the bench being crushed. Rarity had noticed in time to cover her mouth to keep the Dopant from hearing her.

"Why doesn't he just leave? He didn't see us jump into the bushes." Rarity quietly complained while removing her hand from her friend's mouth. "You'd think from being a brute, he'd be simple minded enough to look somewhere else."

"Maybe he can smell our fear." Fluttershy curls up and holds in a cry. "I know I am."

"I doubt it, Fluttershy. The brute doesn't even have a nose from what I can see." She tried assuring her friend. "Maybe we should try sneaking off. It probably won't follow if he's set on looking here."

Right then the sound of something getting destroyed was heard before the girls get startled by a tic-tac-toe square in between them. "Raahhh!" The two peek over to see the whole playground was left in pieces with Violence in the middle of it all. "Rah!" Letting out another frustrated roar, the girls watched as the Dopant jumped curling up to compress his entire body into a ball except of his round arm.

Rarity covers her mouth. "Why does this kaiju have to be so revolting? Why would it need to do something like that?" She questioned feeling sick from just looking at him.

Violence slams its arm onto the ground, launching himself forward and smashes his way through two trees before crushing the ground underneath himself when landing. He repeats this act, smashing his way through anything around in his path.

"We should leave while he's having a hissy fit."

Fluttershy nods agreeing. They stayed hidden behind the bushes as they crawled away in the opposite direction. Though before they could get far, the sounds of chirping made Fluttershy stop to stand up and look over to one of the fallen trees. Next to the trunk of the tree is a ruined nest with three baby birds.

Rarity kept moving forward until she heard her friend gasp and then turns to see Fluttershy run out of bushes. "Fluttershy, where are you going?! He'll see you."

"Hm?" Violence turned from hearing the bushes rustle to find one of his targets run up to a fallen tree. "Rah!" The Dopant launches himself towards her.

Fluttershy rushes having heard the Dopant's roar, knowing it means he's spotted her and is probably shooting towards her. Reaching the baby birds, she quickly picked them up to jump out of the way in time as Violence crushed the spot she had been at. She lands on her back, keeping the birds safe but doesn't notice she dropped the cheetah key.

"Are you okay?" She asked the baby birds, who chirp happily. "Glad to see you're all okay." "FLUTTERSHY RUN!!" Fluttershy looks back to see Violence already in the air headed towards her. She braces herself while keeping the birds close to try to shield them.

A second before the Dopant was about to hit, Fluttershy hears a familiar roar. She looks in time to see Blaze and Razor ran past her and jump ramming into the Dopant. They manage to change Violence's course, sending him flying onto his back across from Fluttershy's left. But the two are sent flying into the wreckage of the playground.

"Blaze! Razor!" She cried out worried about her little friends.

"Fluttershy, are you alright?" Rarity asked having ran to her side. "I'm fine. But Blaze and Razor-"

"Rah!" Violence interrupted Fluttershy as he hit the ground out of anger and stood moving towards them. "Ugh!" He gets hit by multiple shots that knocks him back onto the ground.

Surprised, the girls looked behind them expecting to see one of the Riders but find Detective Shining and a woman they hadn't seen before holding the Shotriser at the ready with the barrel aimed at Magma.

The woman seemed to be a bit younger than Shining, with light goldish gray skin, moderate gold eyes and tangelo curly hair. Her black jacket has a crimson color around the edges with a green shirt under it and jeans matching the jacket's colors with a silver belt having a black strange looking buckle. A vine image ran along her black knee-high boots.

The two ran in front of the girls. "Are you two alright?" The woman asked looking back to them. Rarity and Fluttershy couldn't answer from their attention being drawn to the gun that they think seems similar to the Rider's belts in some way. "You should get to safety."

"Ready, Autumn?" Shining asked with the Lost Driver ready in his left hand. "You know I am." Autumn said with excitement while pulling out the jackal Progrisekey.

While Autumn sets the Shotriser onto the buckle, Shining pressed the Driver against his waist as a silver belt strap with a black slot on the right-side form around him and follows with holding up the Gaia Memory. (PALADIN!) (Hunt!) Shining's belt makes a confirmation noise after inserting the memory into the front slot causing it to make a standby noise along with a yellow ring pulsing in front of him. While Autumn's says (Authorize!) after inserting the key with the front flipped open into the back of the gun.

(Kamen Rider! Kamen Rider! Kamen-) The Shotriser's repeat ends when she pulls the trigger and Shining's ends when he tilts the slot to the right. (PALADIN!) (Shotrise!) A glowing bullet is shot out of the Shotriser while playing a jingle. The bullet flies around Autumn before hitting into her to spread into bits that forms into an armor around her. As for Shining, a medieval theme played as ring appeared around him to form armor around him.

(Hunting Jackal! Deciding the fate of a battle like a Valkyrie.) Autumn's armor was mostly white with a bit of gray. The chest and upper part of the arms has a black armor with gold tracing around and within the openings, along with a gold 3 ringed chest armor. A gold jackal-claw shaped foot was at the front of her feet. The white helmet had yellow round visor eyes with a line going down from them and a black jackal head shaped piece going around the face with the inner part of the ears at the top having a gold color.

Shining's armor was mostly all white with the wrists, shoulder pads and lower legs having a knight armor shape. Silver ran along the edges of armor. His white helmet has red round visor eyes and a silver 'V' on the forehead with a red diamond at the center of it.

Rarity and Fluttershy stared in shock having seen the two transform into Riders. A white and gold knight shield with a gray and white sword going through down the middle appeared in Shining's left hand. While a jackal ear shaped tipped gold and black scythe formed in Autumn's hands.

"Take it down." Shining runs up to Violence pulling the sword out of the shield. It's mostly gray with white on the handle and a transparent red edged blade.

"Rah!" Violence charges swinging his wrecking ball arm the moment he got close to the Rider. Despite his strength, Shining just holds up his shield, blocking the hit with little effort. "Uh?! Gah!" Sparks flew off the Dopant after Shining shoved him back and held up his sword to bring it down on the kaiju.

With Violence stumbling back, Shining holds his arms out wide apart to allow Autumn to jump onto and off of him towards the Dopant. She manages to get a hit across Violence's chest when she brought her scythe down him and again from swinging it back upward, sending the Dopant flying back.

"This is so amazing! Never thought I'd ever get to be a superhero. Or fight weird looking monsters." "Focus, Autumn." Shining lectured running past her to get ahead to fight Violence. "I am. But you have to admit this is so cool." She said before running to help.

While they fought the Dopant, Rarity and Fluttershy ran over to look for their little friends in the playground's wreckage. While searching through the wreckage, Rarity to a second to look over at the new Riders. "I really hope they aren't bad news for the boys."

Everwood Park

Zero-One comes down kneeing Mammoth's chest from the air, knocking the Magia onto the floor. Ekal and Arsino try running, sneaking up behind him.

Taking notice of them, Zero-One waits until they're close enough to hold his dagger up against the belt. (Access Charge! Zeta Slash!) He aims the slash at the ground in front of him causing a cloud of dirt to blind their view of him. The Magia stop trying to spot the Rider in the smoke.

Zero-One's sword and dagger suddenly come thrusting out of the smoke. Arsino reacts in time to catch while Berotha fired lasers from both sides of its head into the smoke but only hits air. They look around confused trying to find their enemy. They look up in time for Zero-One come down on them, getting Berotha in a head lock while locking his legs around Arsino's head and used his momentum to drag them along with him, slamming them to the ground.

While the two Magia stood up, Hedgehog watched from across as Zero-One rolls to pick up his weapons before getting back on his feet and runs slashing the two as he past them. He then quickly turns back to kick Arsino in the chest and reels it back to thrust his foot into Berotha, sending the flying back.

"Zero-One!" The Rider turns to face the Raider. "I'm sure you remember that I'll be the one to destroy you." Hedgehog gets into a crouched stance with Zero-One also taking a stance with his sword and dagger ready.

While the two waited for the other to make the first move, Neohi's tentacles slowly came out of the lake and made their way toward's Zero-One from behind.

Right then, Wizard and the others appeared next to the lake. "Knew the fun would be around here. Now what do you say-" He turns to Magma only for the Dopant to tackle and drag the Rider away along with him. "Yeah. Should've guessed that'd happen."

Flash and the girls were about to chase after them, but Applejack stops seeing Zero-One on the other side of the lake facing a Raider that she knew could only be Molten. She also takes notice the tentacles.

"Zero-One, behind yah!" She shouted loudly.

Seeing the Rider turn his head a bit to see her, Hedgehog launches needles at him. Zero-One quickly throws his dagger up into the air while dropping to the floor to avoid the needles and let them hit the tentacles away.

"What?!" As the dagger came falling back down, Zero-One thrusts his foot into it and launches it straight into the Raider's chest. "Ugh!"

Neohi bursts out of the water and turns to look at Applejack to send its tentacles at her. Zero-One takes the shark key out seeing this. (Fang! Authorize!) Before the tentacles could reach her, a mechanical transparent teal shark came down from the sky and into the water while ripping them to bits. It swims straight towards Neohi to hit the Magia three times before going over to Zero-One who tosses the Attache Calibur to the side.

"Should've stayed focus on me." (Progrise! Kirikiribai! Kirikiribai! Biting Shark!) Zero-One's chest armor and back shifted to both wrists to form a fin blade. The leg's shifted to the bottom back sides while his face splits in half to move to the sides of the head while rotating downward. The shark jumped into the sky splitting into 6 pieces and changes into armor on the chest, shoulders, legs and face. On the bottom sides of the legs were teal armor with a fin sticking out and gills above them. Both the shoulders and chest armor have a gill shape to them. The helmet's face now has a shark shape with 3 fins, a jagged mold to seem like teeth, and raspberry-colored eyes. (Fangs that can chomp through concrete.)

With his new form completed, Zero-One charges towards Neohi running into the water. The Magia sends its regrown tentacles at him, but Zero-One swings his arms using the fin blades to cut his way through them. (Biting Impact!) Activating his finisher, Zero-One speeds up to Neohi with his fin blades and kicks launching energy slashes and then sends it flying into the air with an upper cut slash.

A row of energy fin blades were created from both arms that Zero-One uses when he jumps up and slashes Neohi with both at the same time, destroying the Magia.

Landing back on the ground, he looks to Applejack giving her a thumbs up. She smiled for a moment before remembering what she had. "I think these are your." Applejack shouted tossing the tiger and penguin keys over to him.

The Rider looked them over before looking back to Applejack. "Where'd you-" (Gatling Bolide!) His attention is drawn back to Hedgehog who is now in the air, rolls into a ball, and shoots down a barrage of needles. (Hurricane! Authorize!) Zero-One closes the Driver to switch keys. (Progrise! Spinning cyclone! Storming Penguin!) A big sky-blue penguin came down and slid around Zero-One creating powerful winds that protect him from the needles.

Applejack watched with one hand keeping her hat from flying off her head as the hopper armor shifting again and the penguin split into 5 pieces. Along with the back pieces, the lower and middle part of the hopper chest moved back with the rest of it staying on the elbow. Webbed feet form in front of his feet, flippers hung from his shoulders, and lastly a penguin face with crest feathers formed over his face, along with now having green eyes. (The winds are at his command.)

Hedgehog lands with the three Magia regrouping around him as they watch Zero-One walk out of the water. He motions for them to continue with his hand. "Gladly." The Rider charges at them the second they do.

Meanwhile Close By

"Gah." Jurassic had blocked Mango's mace and is now struggling to shove the kaiju back. Acorn then comes in swinging his hammer upward, knocking the Rider's sword out of his hand and stabbing into the ground a couple feet behind him. He then braces himself as he gets shot and hit from his left and right by Grape and Strawberry, and then gets hit square in the chest by Banana's spear sending him slide on his back into his sword. "These guys are a bit tougher than I thought."

(Attack Ride! Blast!) The five Riotoozes advanced slowly towards Jurassic but stop when they heard this and then they all get hit with multiple energy blasts. Jurassic was surprised by this at first but then lets out a sigh.

"You sure took your time getting back here."

With a silver veil passing by next to him, Decade appeared standing to Jurassic's right with his Ride Booker in gun mode. "What can I say, the star loves to show up late."A slash sound was heard before Magma came flying over the two and crashing into the armored grunts.

"Guess that makes me the star here then." They look to Jurassic's left to see Wizard wake up and stand next to them. "Sorry but little brothers don't count." "What? Are you jealous that I'm more cooler than you?" "Please. You're a lifetime away from ever besting me at coolness." "Surprised you could say that after how our last practice match went." Wizard mumbled to himself but Decade still heard him. "First of all, I went easy on you in that. Secondly, if I could've gone all out I would've had you dancing around like a monkey." "Doubt it." "Oh yeah, you little-"

Jurassic stops their bickering by smacking the back of their heads, hearing them both say "Wow!" as he took a step past them. "Save it for later. For now let's show them how well we brothers can work together."

"Fine. If we must." "Sorry about that, bro. You can count on me." Decade and Wizard said moving to beside him and each take out a different item.

(Alpha Spino!) (Form Ride.) (Lupachi Magic Touch Go!) "Core shift." "Henshin." (Core Splash! Dive! Whirl! Wave! Alpha Spino!) (Agito Storm!) (Shaba- Water, Please!)

While a blue swirl covered Decade, an obsidian wall with a spinosaurus fossil in it rose out of the ground behind Jurassic and then crumbles covering him with a blue light shining through the cracks.

Wizard holds up his left hand with the blue diamond ring making a blue spell circle appear over him. The edges of the circle waved around like liquid. (Sui-Sui, Sui-Sui!) Making a splash as it passed down through him, Wizard's color changed to blue, along with the round gem abs and face changing into diamond shapes. This is Wizard's Water Style.

The kaiju got back onto their feet as the Riders finished changing forms. "Let the show begin." Wizard said holding out his ring. Decade holds up his right hand and snaps his finger. "Chaos will be your end." Jurassic holds his hand out towards his weapon that launches itself off the sword attachment and lands into his hand while adding the new attachment. (Spino Khopesh!) "There's no reason to hold back now." He said out loud while taking a swordsman stance.

From the sidelines, Sunset and Flash had managed to catch up but stopped still being a good distance away from the fight. "We should stay here. Better to not get in their way." Flash nods agreeing with Sunset as they stood and watched as their friends charged forward.

Somewhere Around the City

The sounds of cars honking filled a part of the city. Certain streets leading to one that heads out of the city was packed with traffic as people were stuck waiting for the light to change out of red.

One person at the front seemed to be getting annoyed with all the honking. A dark and light striped greenish gray-haired middle-aged man with grayish cerulean skin in an old sports car was tapping on his steering wheel with an annoyed and angered expression.

"When is this damn fucking light going to change?" He asked out in anger. "I never had to deal with this crap back in my stunt flying days." Looking back and forth down the empty street and doesn't see anyone. "That's it. I'm going whether or not this damn light likes it."

He moves his car a bit forward but stops when he hears someone yell out "Can't you see the damn light!"

Looks down to the left he sees Build and OOO drive past going down the street with Rainbow and Pinkie. A second later Scorpion charges by, still chasing after them. One of its legs stabs through the front of the man's car causing the air bag to pop out.

Parked car, light poles, and many other things get wrecked as Scorpion smashed its way through, chasing after the Riders who are reaching the freeway with the light in front of it filled traffic.

Rainbow looked back at the Nameless with concern. "There's no way all those people will get out of the way in time" "We're not going on the freeway. We just needed to buy time." She looks back at him confused. "What do you mean?"

Build removes his bottles from the belt and brings out unicorn and magnet. (Unicorn! Magnet! Are you ready?) Build's form changed as funky music played. Rabbit was replaced by a blue armor with a horse tail on the shoulder, a unicorn head piece on the wrist with the horn going over his hand, and a blue unicorn head shaped visor. Tank had been replaced with a different blue armor with a magnet on the wrist, bolts on the shoulder pad, the chest has a single magnet stripe and a single white stripe, and the visor was shaped like curved magnet.

He holds up his right arm with the unicorn horn lighting up and then points it ahead, having it fire magic. The blast only goes a bit ahead before opening a portal in front of them with what looks like stands and amusement rides on the other side.

"Here we go." "Full speed ahead!" Pinkie shouted as they go full speed through the portal with Scorpion following them.

The portal closes behind the Nameless that smashes its way through stands that the Riders drive around. It lunges its three tails at them forcing both Riders to swerve around to avoid them.

"That's it. Hold on tight." Build spoke out annoyed.

He has his bike jump up high, landing onto a roller coaster rail and then turns the belts crank. (Ready? Go!) While his magnet arm is used to lift up metal grates that are laying below, Build has the unicorn arm to reshape them all into battering rams before launching them straight at Scorpion. (Vortex Attack!)

The Nameless is stopped in its tracks as the battering rams hit, beating it into the ground. From above, Build and Rainbow looked down below to see what happened to the Nameless as the spot was covered in dust. A second later, Scorpion bursts out of the smoke screeching angrily looking up at them and begins climbing its way up the ride.

"That didn't work. You just pissed it off." "That was the plan. Now for the next part that you'll probably love." "What do you-" Rainbow cuts herself off when she notices that they at the top of a really high slope that make her a bit nervous. "C-Can we talk about THIIIIIIS!!" She screamed the last part as Build drove them down the slope with Scorpion hanging from the side chasing after them.

Rainbow continued screaming Build rode following the rails going up and down, in zigzags, and swerves with Scorpion launching its tails at them, along with reaching a few times with its pincers. Build had even summoned the Vortex Saber to knock the stingers away a few times.

"Hm? Uh!" "'Uh'? 'Uh' what?" She looks ahead to see spiraling loop with the tracks still being built at the end. "What do we do now?" "Simple. We improvise." Build takes out magnet and insert comic. (Comic! Are you ready?) The magnet half changes into comic.

Going into the loop, Build lets go of the steering wheel to put his hands together and has unicorn's horn build up magic into the pen tip of the left arm. "Unicorn magic is so useful, yet so waisted in Equestria." He fires a beam of yellow magic at end of the track, making it glow before a track made of magic that goes up and then curves back down going over Scorpion.

Driving onto the magic track after exiting the loop, Build takes two bottles out that he inserts into his weapon. (Sai! Robot! Cross Combo!) Going down towards the Nameless, a big metal rhino horns formed around the saber, spinning along with it. Scorpion lunges its tails at them to intercept. Build uses the attack to knock the stingers away and then hits, swatting the Nameless off the coaster as they passed over it. Scorpion lands sliding on its back across the ground until crashing into a section of the park that's meant to have many different shops based on the number of buildings around, along with a big street in between them.

The Nameless stood up shaking its head still recovering from the fall while not taking notice of OOO driving up with his sword at hand behind it. "Are you ready, Pinkie?" "Let's light'em up!" She said enthusiastically shouted with the Metabuster at hand. Hitting the brakes, OOO turned the bike sideways to have the bike slide under Scorpion.

Seconds before going under the Nameless, OOO inserts the eel medal into the sword while Pinkie put the stag beetle in hers. (Unagi! Unagi Whip!) (Core Charge!) Pinkie shot up at Scorpion's belly with a green electrical shot while OOO's sword creates a blue whip made of water with electric running through it and uses it to hit the legs as they slid by.

Scorpion crumbled falling flat on its belly with the two getting out from under it in time and drive until they stop at the end of the street. Build and Rainbow drive up and stop next to them, watching from a distance as Scorpion was having difficulty standing from the electricity running through it.

Build and OOO got off their bikes and look straight towards Scorpion. "Now! Le't hit it hard." "On it. And I think I've got a set in mind to use." OOO flips the bat medal before they switch out a bottle and medals. (Ninja! Best Match! Are you ready?) "Build up." (Shinobi no entertainer!NinninComic!Yeah!) (Unicorn!Komori!Cheetah!) Build's unicorn side changed to ninja, while OOO's head and legs changed to unicorn and cheetah but bat had been used as the arms with the shoulder pads being shaped like ears and the wrists having bat wing blades attached to them.

(4Koma Ninpoutou!) Taking ahold of the sword, Build dashes forward along with OOO towards Scorpion. Not being able to stand, the Nameless decides to lung its tail towards them which the Rider weren't having much trouble with thanks to their speed. OOO ran side to side avoiding the tails while occasionally using unicorn to create a barrier shield. While Build jumped and slide under the strikes along with hitting them away with the sword.

"I'll go high. And you go low." "I'm on it." Build jumps up from building wall to wall advancing forward towards the Nameless. OOO is the first to reach Scorpion. He jumps up rapidly kicks its face before teleporting away when the Nameless tried getting with its pincers, then continues by moving fast around the kaiju and slashing at its legs and pincers with sonic slashes from the wing blades.

Landing on top of Scorpion, Build slashes at its back a couple times but then jumps back to avoid the stingers. Using his pen arm to draw bombs that he throws down at the Nameless, he runs along the walls avoiding the stingers as they stabbed into the walls chasing after him. Build notices the tails stop for a second to all converge on him from three different angles. He avoids them by jumping straight into the air but the tails curve at last second and chase after him.

"shit!" (Kakuremi no Justsu! Doron!) Build conceals himself completely in smoke. The stingers shoot through the smoke, but they hit nothing. Scorpion screeches out angrily with its stingers wave around randomly while shooting poison.

"This guy is really getting pissed now." OOO said to himself as running around was beginning to become more difficult with the poison spreading around. "OOO!!" Hearing Pinkie scream his name, he looks back to see her and Rainbow losing room to run from the poison. OOO builds up magic in his horn before firing it towards his friends where it creates a barrier around them. "That should do for now."

Build appears next to OOO. "Can you create a freezing mist?" "One freezing wind coming up." As he begins to build up magic, Scorpion takes notice of them and aims to shoot poison towards them. "That's enoughout of you." (Bunshin no Jutsu!) The sword announced from the trigger being pushed once. Five Build clones appeared from yellow and purple swirls along with the word 'BOOM' in comic lettering. (Katon no Jutsu! Kaen Giri!) Pushing the trigger twice, all six Builds launch fire slashes at and into the Nameless's tail.

"Let's hope this works." Taking a deep breath and exhales slowly with his horn releasing a pink aura around himself and Build, turning into a blue mist that freezes the poison around it. "I don't know about you, but that trip to Equestria really helped me out."

"I'd rather have both my hands at all times." (Fuuton no Jutsu! Tatsumaki Giri!) Circling around, all the Builds launched tornado slashes that each take in some of the mist, making themselves into freezing tornados that move around freezing the poison. Scorpion gets frozen by one but breaks out of the ice instantly screeching in anger.

"What the hell is it going to take to bring that thing down?" Rainbow asked out loud with Pinkie thinking next to her. "Maybe a giant bug spray." "Pinkie, be serious about this."

Build and OOO look to each other nodding and look back to Scorpion while taking out the bottles and medals to switch out. The Nameless takes advantage of the opportunity to shoot poison at them. Rainbow and Pinkie watched their friends disappear into the poison liquid and gas. "Build!/OOO!" The two shouted worried.

(Mukade!Hachi!Ari!Mukachiri!Chiri!Mukachiri!Chiri!) OOO runs out of the poison in his poison combo form. Scorpion is about to attack with its stingers, but stops hearing (Ready? Go! VortexFinish!Yeah!) and sees flames going upward.

It follows the flames trail only to see Build dive bombing it in his PhoenixRobo form with his robot arm having an enlarged version of the claw made of energy with fire covering the end of it. Thrusting forward, Build hits slamming the claw ontop the Nameless's head and into the ground.

"Next one." He proceeds to switch bottles again. (Same!Bike! Best Match! Are you ready?) "Build up." (Dokusouhunter!SameBike!Yaah!) (Samethrottler!) Revving the weapon's throttle, the Rider runs onto Scorpion's back before it pulled its head out of the ground.

Though the moment it did, OOO was in front of it already hitting its face with his honeycomb shield and then followed with a couple jabs with his stinger arm. "I'm still here too, you know." He kicks the Nameless across the face making it stumble back from the strength in the kick.

(Jawsome Frenzy!) With water circling around him, Build spun around the tails, hitting them with multiple slashes. Scorpion screeches in pain before throwing him off. Angered, the Nameless launches its damaged tails at the Rider, who proceeds to rev the throttle twice. (Jawsome Requiem!) Build launches the energy saw blade that cuts through all the tails.

Both Riders back away from Scorpion when the Nameless begins thrashing around randomly while screeching. Build and OOO look themselves over when a golden glow appears around them for a moment before fading.

"Seems like the boost Guardie gave us is starting to wear off." OOO said looking to Build. "Then we should end this now." Build switches bottles once more. (Manticore!Gashapon! Best Match! Are you ready?) "Build up." (The capsule filled mystic beast!MantiPon!Yeah!)

"What'd these guys do in Equestria that they got all these new forms?" "Maybe the other me forgot she had some of OOO medals and was able to give them to him before the town was attacked by a different type of kaiju that different heroes had to fight against that they fought off. But then they had to deal with a huge kaiju problem that's actually a good guy, so they had to work together with other heroes to help free him and save the day." Rainbow was staring at her friend with a brow raised from how fast she had said everything in one breath. "Pinkie, you really have the weirdest imagination."

Build turns the crank of his belt, activating his finisher. (Ready? Go!) Build's gashapon shoulder creates many capsule balls all around them that OOO uses to jump up higher and higher before running the scanner over his belt. (VortexFinish!Yeah!) (Scanning Charge!) Build swings a fist forward making all except for 4 of the capsules launch towards, ramming into Scorpion causing parts of its body to crack.

OOO has a centipede body circle around him from his helmet with the end positioning itself next to the kick. The other four capsules open with the pieces flying and attaching to OOO. His helmet has bull horns, dragon wings on his, a scorpion stinger attaches to the centipede and a lion head placing itself at the bottom of the kick.

"Seiya!" OOO goes straight through Scorpion, sliding across the to the other side with the Nameless exploding the moment he came to a stop. The two Riders walk up to where Scorpion had exploded with Rainbow and Pinkie following behind Build. They find the scorpion items laying there along with a glowing orb. "And that's the end of him." He said picking up the scorpion medal and key.

"What's this?" Build questioned picking up the orb along with scorpion bottle.

(Elek Steam!) Both Riders are caught off guard by a red blur that sped towards them and stops in front of them with it being Faust. He hits them with an electrical steam slash from a black and red dagger weapon with a scope on the back, silver tip, yellow blade and a nozzle on the left side. It sends them both rolling across the ground and out of their transformations. A couple of their bottles and medals fell landing next to the orb.

"Connor!/Reiji!" The two run over to check on their friends while Faust walked over to the orb. "Didn't think I'd get lucky enough to take some of your powers while coming back for the core." After the orb, he picks up the condor, turtle, rhino, and kangaroo medals. While also getting the shark, robot, phoenix, unicorn, eraser, ghost, and magnet bottles. "Don't worry. We'll put these to good use." They had heard him say before seeing him dash of as a red blur.

"That could've gone better- Ugh!" Connor tried standing but stops to hold his side with Rainbow helping him stay standing. "Are you okay? He hit you guys pretty hard." "We're fine. But mind telling us how this whole thing started."

Back at the Playground

Fluttershy and Rarity were still searching through the wreckage trying to find Blaze and Razor, with Shining and Autumn fighting Violence in the background behind them. Sparks flew off the Dopant as Shining slashed him across the chest and then follows with slamming his shield into Violence's chest to make him stumble back enough for Autumn over her partner to bring down her scythe on the Dopant.

From a distance, Faust ran up to and leans on a tree to see how the kaiju is doing. "What do we have here? New Riders." Faust spoke with an amused tone. "But not any of the important ones."

He watched Autumn duck under Violence's swing while slashing his waist. She stays on her hands and knees for Shining to ram his shoulder into the Dopant causing him to fall over when he stumbles back into Autumn. Shining ran up next her as she stood, and both swung upward to hit Violence, sending him rolling back with sparks flying off him.

"This isn't that amusing." Faust said sounding bored. "Time to raise the level." He snaps his fingers making some Riotoozes appear behind him and then points towards the Riders. "Attack." The grunts charge running in with some shooting blasts of energy towards them.

"Whoa!" Autumn shouted surprised from a blast passing by her and rolls out of the way of a couple more. "When'd these guys get here?" She removes the Shotriser from the belt to use as a gun to shoot at the grunts.

Shining ran up to a couple of Riotoozes, cutting three down while blocking two others with his shield and shoves them back to get them both with one slash. He cuts down another couple before hearing "Cyah!" and stops to look back. He sees some grunts surrounding Rarity and Fluttershy.

"You handle the ones here. I'm going to get the ones attacking those teens." Shining tells his partner before making his way slashing through grunts.

"On my own? How will I-" Autumn gets surprised when her armor glows shooting a light onto the ground that creates three black and gold colored mechanical jackals. "Wow! You're so awesome looking!" Excited, she kneels down to pet them. Six Riotoozes charge up to them to attack but with a growl, the jackals attacked and ripped the grunts apart. "Oh! thank you, sweeties." Autumn pets them once more. "Now sick them!"

Hearing the command, the jackals dash off and begin attacking the grunts along with Autumn. The jackals attacked in a couple different way. They would either ram straight through a grunt, or use their fangs and claws to rip them apart.

"Let go of us." Rarity demanded to the grunts who are forcing her and Fluttershy by holding onto their wrists. They and the two Riotoozes freeze for a second when they hear the sounds of slashing. The grunts turn to look behind themselves in time for Shining to cut them down with two slashes. "Officer."

"What are you two still doing here? Weren't you told to run to safety?" He questioned them while fighting off grunts that run up to him.

The two get nervous not sure how to answer the question. Knowing they can't tell the truth on who they're looking for. The police already or would be able to figure out that Blaze and Razor are with the Riders, which would lead to Shining wanting to question how they're connected to them. They tried of thinking of how they could avoid answering the truth but coming up with nothing.

Rarity's thoughts come to a halt when she feels something tap the tip of her right hand's finger. With Shining's back turned to them, she takes the opportunity to see what touched her hand and finds the cheetah key with Blaze and Razor a few feet away hidden in the wreckage.

"We...wanted to help by giving you this." Rarity said holding out the cheetah key to him. Destroy the last of the grunts around them, Shining takes the key after sheathing the sword back into the shield. "Where'd you find this?" "A strange man gave it to us at a pawn shop and made us run from kaiju he created using the pawn shop owners."

"Created?" He looks back at the Dopant. "Then, that thing is a human?"

"Yes. But he should change back if you defeat it. O-Or at least that's what the man told us. Though, I'm not sure if it's true." She panicked on the last part from having let the knowledge on the Dopants slip.

Shining looks back to them. "Thanks for the thought. But it's too dangerous to stay here."

"We understand. Let's go, Fluttershy." Rarity runs tugging Fluttershy along with her, turning around a corner and out of sight. But stops to take out her phone.

"Rarity, what about Blaze and Razor?" "I saw them. They're alright." "Oh, that's great. Then why aren't we running away?" Fluttershy asked a bit confused.

Rarity looks back out from the corner. "I'm sure Negi and the others are going to want to see all this." Rarity ends setting her phone to record after aiming it towards the fight.

"This is the most amazing moment in my life!" Autumn had shouted with excitement while running, shooting the grunts. She stops cutting down three grunts in one go with the scythe in her left hand. "Though I wonder, are we Riders too? Or are the higher ups planning to call us something- AH!" She jumps forward having heard a slash behind her.

Behind her is a Riotooze in a grabbing position. She about to shoot it, until it falls flat with Shining standing behind it.

"Keep your guard up, Autumn. Stop goofing around." "I am. He just snuck up on me." While his partner began shooting grunts again, Shining smacked one to the side with his shield and turns to slash down two running up behind him. "Those girls told me that the kaiju is a citizen."

She looked back to him for a second with a shocked face under her helmet before getting back to shooting and slashing the grunts. "What!? Does that mean we have to kill someone?"

"I'm not sure. They did say that the man who turned this person into thing said that he'll change back if we defeat him." He had said while fighting grunts. "Though there's no tell if the was telling them the truth. Even so, we need to stop this thing before any more lives are hurt."

"You're right. I just really hope it's true." "Rah!" Through the grunts, the two see Violence roaring in anger. He then changes into his ball form again. "Seems like he's tired of waiting."

Shining cuts down two grunts. "Then let's not keep it waiting." He and Autumn fight their way through the grunts as they made their way towards Violence.

Faust chuckles. "Seems like Violence will need another handy cap."

He snaps his fingers making the remaining Riotoozes change back into ooze. The oozes all rushed, converging around the Riders, where they wrap around Shining and Autumn leaving them binded and defenseless.

"What?! Hey, let go!" Autumn yells out as she and Shining try to break free, but fail do to the ooze acting like rubber from how it stretches and pulls back into place. "Damn it. Maybe those dog thingies can he-" She stops when she sees the same thing had been done to the jackals. "Nevermind."

Violence slams the ground to launch himself towards the Rider. The Dopant rams into them, sending flying to opposite side but the Riders get rammed back into each other thanks to the ooze. Violence continues bashing into them and having them slam back into each other with sparks flying off them.

"Ugh...Damn it." "S-Shining, what do we do?" Instead of launching towards them, Violence launches himself into the air directly over the two and descends down towards them. They brace themselves. (Moblize Blaze!) Before Violence could crush the two, Blaze comes in his king mode and catches the Dopant his mouth. "Ah. Jurassic's machine."

"Grah!" Violence shouts in pain from Blaze chomping down on him until he reverts out of his ball form and then tosses the Dopant to the side.

Razor comes running up to Shining and Autumn before rolling up and moving against all around them, cutting the ooze to bits. "Wow. Thanks for the help little guy." She tries to pet him but Razor moves away from her hand, letting out a small roar at her and runs to Blaze. The rex separates from the cycle and uses it along with the spino to drive off.

"Should I go after them?" "No. That can wait for another day. For now," Autumn turns along with him to face towards Violence. "let's end this." "Yes sir!"

(Hunt!) The Shotriser announced after she had reattached it to the belt and pushed the Progrisekey's button which starts a charge up jingle. Sheathing his sword, Shining removes the Gaia Memory from the belt without moving the slot and inserts it into a slot from the sword's hilt. (PALADIN! MAXIMUM DRIVE!)

Taking the sword back out, both Riders push their weapons triggers. (Fighting! Blast Fever!) Energy builds up around Shining's sword before he launches a powerful slash that travels across the field and goes straight through Violence. Cracks of light spread across the Dopant's body that keeps him from moving.

Autumn dashes towards Violence at high speed, leaving after images of herself as she moved circling around the Dopant, hitting him with 4 slashes and then appears above him, bringing down her scythe in a vertical slash that goes through, across his chest. Turning her back to him, Violence falls flat on his back before exploding.

Turning back to find Flim, she kneels down to check his pulse with Shining running up to them. "He's banged up, but he'll be fine."

"That's good to hear. Hm?" On the grassy floor next to Flim, he finds the Violence memory before it shatters but then to his surprise, it restores itself, now being a transparent light brown Memory like his own with a letter 'B' with horns on it and the word 'BUFFALO' in yellow letters on the side. "What exactly is this?" Right then, the memory is taken from him by a red blur that stops a few feet away from them for Faust to reveal himself. He and Autumn readied themselves for the unknown man. "I'm guessing you're the one who did all this. Who are you?"

"You may call me Faust. But that's all I'm willing to tell you for now. Ciao." With grin, he dashes off as a red blur and is gone within a second.

"I don't know why, but that guy gave me a chilly feeling." "Yeah. There's something dangerous about that one." Autumn looks back to Flim. "We should call in an ambulance for him."

Shining nods in agreement before undoing his transformation along with his partner. "Yeah. You call for an ambulance while I report to the chief what happened." "Got it." Autumn kneels down next to Flim while calling for an ambulance. Shining was about to make his call to the chief but hesitates for a moment to look at his Gaia Memory. "What exactly is going on?"

Everwood Park

Brutus appears standing at the tip of a tall tree that's close to the same area where the Raider and Magia are battling the Rider. He watched Zero-One's battle from a far distance as he sees the Rider take on four enemies at once. He could also see Applejack running around the lake to get to the fight.

"Now, show me what you're capable of Zero-One."

Zero-One is parrying and dodging each of the four's hits. He ducks as Hedgehog's elbow passed over him, ramming into Mammoth causing it to stumble back. "Hold still- Ugh!" Berotha accidently hits the Raider with its blade from Zero-One having stepping to the side.

Arsino is about to headbutt him which the Rider avoids by twisting around to Berotha's front and elbows the Magia into the attack. (Hurricane! Impact!) Activating the finisher, Zero-One stays in place spinning to create a small hurricane twister that knocks the 4 kaiju away from him.

Arsino and Berotha are the first to stand to dash towards the Rider. Zero-One ducks under Berotha's blade and then hits Arsino with four spin kicks across the face, moving forward with each kick. The Magia falls to the floor while Zero-One and Berotha turn to face each other.

Zero-One runs towards the Magia who fires lasers at him. He dodges moving side to side, sliding, and jumping over the shots. Getting closer, Berotha launches energy scythes from its blades at the Rider. Zero-One stops to spin, creating a cyclone that pulls the scythes into its current, sends them back when he stops with one leg knelt forward and has an arm pointed towards the Magia while they're spread wide apart.

Mammoth comes up charging behind the Rider. Taking notice of this, Zero-One spun around to face it along with wind around himself and jumps back as Mammoth is about to ram into him. But his feet don't touch the ground after jumping thanks to the wind carrying back. Floating and following Mammoth, Zero-One strikes multiple hits on the Magia's chest with wind flowing around the tips of his fingers that are pointed out like a beak. He stops along with Mammoth and delivers a two-handed palm strike to its chest sending the Magia flying into Berotha.

(Strong! Authorize! Progrise! Arai!! Tsuyoi! Katai! Amazing Hercules! With mighty horn-like pincers that flip the opponent helpless.) Zero-One runs up to the two after having switched forms. Getting back up, Berotha shoots lasers and energy scythes towards the Rider while Mammoth shoots out a powerful gust of wind from its trunk.

The gust makes him lose his footing and to get hit by the attacks along with cause a dust cloud. The two Magia stop to see if they've succeeded. The cloud clears to reveal he has taken a sideways stance with his right leg in the front and both arms tucked to his side. Enraged, both Magia resume launching their attacks towards the Rider. Zero-One fights his way through the powerful gust by advancing one step at a time, while taking the laser shots easily and punching through the scythes.

Mammoth ceases its attack charges towards the Rider. Zero-One just continues hitting and taking Berotha's attacks until Mammoth got really close. He reels back his left arm to his side while holding the right arm above it. At last second, he lunges both arms forward with fists and hits Mammoth directly in its face and chest, crushing the trunk in the process.

"The original Zero-One never had this key when he went against one of you." (Amazing! Impact!) "Which gives me a better chance in close range." Zero-One rams his head into Mammoth's chest with an energy hercules pincer horn clamping down on it. It extends, ramming into Berotha, knocking it on its back while Zero-One raised Mammoth into the air and down onto its fellow Magia, destroying them both.

"Don't think it's over just yet!" Hedgehog shouted swinging his needle blades at him. Applejack stops from a close distance to watch as Zero-One leans side to side and backs away avoiding the swings. While still dodging, Zero-One closes his belt to switch keys. (Fire! Authorize!) "What?" Right then, Hedgehog backs up as a red mechanical tiger landed in between them and swipes him to the side.

(Progrise! Gigant flare! Flaming Tiger! Explosive power of 100 bombs.) Hercules armor disappears with the hopper armor shifting around. The pieces from the chest moved to the sides of the abs and to both shoulders while both halves of the face moved to the wrists. Tiger runs around him before separating into six pieces. Red armor forms on the chest, shoulders, and upper legs, having open gaps to give the impression of tiger stripes. A tiger face shaped formed over the face with light blue eyes. Red gauntlets materialized over the hands.

Zero-One holds out his hands towards Hedgehog, shooting out burning flames from the palm of his hands at the Raider. "AAAHHHH!!" Hitting to the floor after a moment from the blast of fire, Hedgehog rolls around feeling burning hot before jumping into the lake. He charges towards where the Raider had jumped but stops when Arsino tries swinging at him from his left and misses by an inch.

Arsino swings punches at him that he just parries and blocks each hit while delivering claw palm strikes to its chest. "Wow." Applejack says to herself impressed by how he's handled so many kaiju at once and the number of hits he's landing on the Magia while easily keeping himself from taking any hits. Arsino tries going for a headbutt, which Zero-One easily moves to the side. He goes into a forward knelt position to hit the Magia's horns with a claw palm strike, shattering them.

Something on the ground catches Applejack's eye to her right. "That's"

"Hm?" Sensing someone, Zero-One uses Arsino's knee to jump up and flip kick under its chin causing the Magia to topple over. The moment he had jumped. Hedgehog had came in having tried taking a swing at him. "Damn you. How'd you know I was coming?" "Can't say. Maybe you should just try hiding yourself better." They spoke while he countered the Raider's needle blades with fire claws from the tips of his fingers. This lasted a moment until they lock arms and struggle to push each other back.

"Zero-One!" He looks far to his left to see Applejack run up with the Attache Calibur at hand. "Catch!" She shouted tossing it over to her friend.

Zero-One shoves Hedgehog back before jumping, lunging forward bringing downs his hands in a claw motion across the Raider's chest and thrusts a kick into his gut the moment he touched ground. Zero-One catches the sword while bringing out the shark key.

(Fang! Progrisekey confirmed. Ready to utilize. Shark's ability.) Shark's energy fin blades appear over the sword's blade, following its motion. (Biting! Kaban Strash!) Hedgehog rolls out of the way as Zero-One spun with the fin blade slash reaching and going through Arsino twice. The Magia falls to the ground exploding.

"It was a nice try." Zero-One said looking to Hedgehog. "Smart to try to out number me. But I far exceed you all. And that's because there's only one who can stop you." Hedgehog growled as the Rider takes the shark key out of the sword and bringing out penguin. (Hurricane! Progrisekey confirmed. Ready to utilize. Penguin's ability.) "And that's me!" Zero-One closes and opens the sword. (Chargerise! Full Charge! Storming Kaban Dynamic!) He launches a hurricane slash at Hedgehog the moment the Raider decided to charge at him and traps the kaiju in a hurricane as the slash circled around him.

"Now for the real finish." Zero-One said taking Penguin out the sword and holds it against the belt after tossing the sword to the side again. (Bit-Byte-Kilo-Mega-Giga Rise! Flaming Giga Impact!) Activating the finisher, Zero-One crosses his arms with his hands open with powerful streams of flames being shot out and aims them towards the hurricane, turning it into a hurricane of fire.

Hedgehog looked around at the huge walls of fire circling him, feeling the heat surrounding him build up. "I will not be caged!" (Gatling Bolide!) He jumps up to the middle of the hurricane as a spike ball and spins launching needles all around. The needles hit the walls but are dragged along with the winds current and get burnt to ash. Hedgehog lands growling in frustration from his attack having no effect. "Uh?"

Zero-One comes jumping through into the hurricane with his body covered in fire. Catching the Raider by surprise, he hits the kaiju with multiple combinations of flaming claws and palm strikes to the chest. "Ring out." "RAH!!" Hedgehog painfully screamed when Zero-One ends the attack with an upward flame claw slash that sends the Raider out of the hurricane and exploding.

Molten rolled across the ground with the hedgehog key landing in front of the burning hurricane that clears. Zero-One walks up, picking up the Progrisekey as Applejack ran to his side.

"Thanks for the keys." He thanked her while holding up the penguin key. "Anytime." The two then look back to Molten who is struggling to stand. Zero-One sighs turning away. "Let's get back to the others."

Applejack turns to him surprised that he's just letting Molten go when he isn't able to escape at the moment. She just watches as Zero-One picks up his sword before running towards where Jurassic was fighting. She looks back to glare at Molten for a second before turning to follow after her friend.

Watching as they left out of sight, Molten tightly grips the grass with rage covering his face completely feeling so much anger and frustration having lost despite having had the upper hand on out numbering. "I promise you Zero-One, next time will be different."

Other side of the Park

"Gah!" Magma was sent rolling across the ground from where Jurassic is blocking Durian's swords. The Rider takes a step back on Durian's next swing and then spins pasts it while delivering a slash to its waist. With its back still turned, Jurassic hits the Riotooze's back with two slashes.

"Rah!" Standing up, the Dopant launches fireballs towards Jurassic, who sees the incoming attack after side kicking Durian and pushes the belt's hammer. "Cool it." (Tidal!) He kicks a blue aura tidal wave that swallows the fireballs and hits Magma.

"Next." (Edge!) Blue aura blades formed on Jurassic's arms and legs as he turned to face Durian, who stand back up and charges towards him. Jurassic first parries the Riotoozes's swords twice before using the hilt of his sword to hit Durian back and gets it with three slashes. The first two were high kick slashes going across its face and the chest, and the third being a downward arm slash diagonally across the chest.

Across the field ahead to his right, Decade, still transformed as Agito Storm, uses the Storm Halberd to block Banana's lance and the forces of the strike to force the weapon's tip into the ground, along with twirling it the rest of the way around to slash the Riotooze across the chest. "Didn't enjoy that?"

"Maybe your friend here will." Decade had said while turning with the staff spinning over his head and brings one of the bladed ends across Mango's chest making sparks fly off its chest. He flips the blade to pull it back upward getting another slash in on the Riotooze.

Across the field to Jurassic's left, Wizard is facing against Strawberry, Budou, and Donguri. Donguri tries swinging its hammer at the Rider, but he kicks its arm, forcing the weapon to slam against the floor next to him. "My turn." Wizard swings, slashing his sword wildly against the Riotooze's chest and ends thrusting the sword into it, sending Donguri falling onto its back. "Now where'd those- Whoa!"

Wizard jumps back and runs from gun shots for a moment before rolling behind a tree. He looks from behind the tree to see Budou pointing its gun towards him. "Two can play that game." He waits for the Riotooze to begin shooting again and then jumps rolls out while firing back with six shots hitting their marks. He stands to shoot again but his weapon gets knocked out of his hands by a strawberry kunai. "Shit." Looking up to see Strawberry jump down onto him, Wizard ducks rolling out of the way with the Riotooze missing him by a second and stabbing two kunai into the ground.

"Hold on for a second." He tells Strawberry as he kicked it against a tree to switch his right hand's ring with one having the image of a dragon with a liquid drop bottom. (Lupachi- Liquid, Please!) Strawberry tries stabbing Wizard again as he turned to it, though to its surprise its kunais and arms go through him.

The Rider turns completely into water that wraps around it with him changing back holding the Riotooze in a headlock. "How do you like this?" He changes to water and changes back again with him now holding Strawberry's arm and his legs locked around its neck. "Or this. Uh!" Wizard takes notice of Budou about to shoot again. He changes into water again causing Budou to shoot its ally while he moves as water to pick up his weapon and shoots the Riotooze the moment he changed back.

Wizard looks towards Jurassic's battle. "Time to lend a hand." He pushes the thumb on the gun up causing the hand to fully open and starts a jingle while repeatedly saying '(Come on a Shooting, Shake Hands!)'. The jingle stops when Wizard holds his left hand against it. (Water Shooting Strike! Sui Sui Sui!) The ending chant continued until he pushes the trigger, shooting a blue stream of water.

Holding Magma and Dorian back from both his sides, Jurassic sees the attack coming from behind the Dopant. He shoves the two back to duck down as the water stream passed by hitting the two kaiju with sparks flying and rolling to the side.

"Water for water." Standing, he switches his weapon to gun mode before holding it against his belt. (S-S-Splash!) The gun continued to say while he turned looking towards Decade's fight.

"Hm? Ah I see." Decade spoke to himself seeing Jurassic aim the gun towards them. "Right behind ya." He jumps back from Banana and Mango's next strikes and takes out a card. (Spino Aqua Splash!) (Attack Ride. Halberd Spin!) Jurassic shoots a water stream blast, hitting the two Riotoozes from behind. Decade begins spinning the Storm Halberd side to side as the slash is about to collide into him and uses the wind created from the spin to mix the water into the it. Turning towards the kaiju Wizard is facing, Decade launches a spinning water slash the hits all three at once, knocking back onto the ground.

"Now to round them up." The Rider proceeds to pull out two cards. (Kamen Ride. Kabuto! Attack Ride. Clock Up!) Transforming into Kabuto and using the attack card to move at high speed that everything around is moving slowly, Decade runs past, hitting the two Riotoozes towards the center of them three Riders before going towards the other kaijus and knocking them all towards the center. He stops next to Wizard. "You're up, little bro."

With a nod, Wizard switches his left ring with the green triangle, flipping the visor over it. "On it." (Sha- Hurricane, Please! Fu-Fu, Fu-Fu-Fu-Fu!) Holding the ring up, a green spell circle appears over him with the same-colored wind swirling around the edge and moves down through him, changing his form. The suit's blue changed to green with the diamond shapes changing to triangles. This is Wizard's Hurricane Style.

As the mage Rider switches his right ring, Jurassic sees Magma stand and lights up in flames before launching fireballs towards his brothers. "No you don't." (Wave! Edge!) In a sweeping kick, a wave of water with a blue aura edge moves in a curved motion around the kaiju, passing in front of his brothers shielding them from the fireballs, and curves again to hit Magma, knocking him away from the group.

"Now for the next act." Wizard said with the copy ring on. (Lupachi Touch- Copy, Please!) Holding his hand to the side, the two red spell circles appear with one next to him. Following the motion of the first as it passes through Wizard, the second creates an exact copy of him. (Copy, Please!) Using spell again, the two Wizards create two more copies.

Switching their weapons to sword mode, all four Wizards are lifted off the ground by green winds. "Maybe they'd appreciate an air dry." All four mages flew towards the Riotoozes and circle around them while hitting them with multiple slashes as the spun around. The copies merge back into him after he stops and lands away from his brothers, leaving them in a triangular position surrounding the Riotoozes. "The finale!"

Changing back to his original form, Decade pulls out a card from the Ride Booker while it's in sword mode. "I agree. Time for the photo finish." (Spino Khopesh!) Changing his weapon back into its Khopesh mode, Jurassic holds out his hand before tightening it into a fist. "We're ending the misuse of those powers."

(Come on a Slash, Shake Hands! Hurricane Slash Strike! Fu-Fu-Fu-Fu!) Green spell circles appeared around the sword's blade with green wind circling it. (Final Attack Ride. D-D-D-Decade!) The row of large energy cards formed in front of Decade. (S-S-Splash! Spino Dividing Fang!) The two Riders launch slashing finishers, along with Wizard unleashing a green wind slash.

Magma stood up as its allies got hit with slashes from three different angles, ending with them all exploding after a large green spell circle appeared around them. When the explosions flash died down, the Dopant noticed the Riders are gone as it looked around.

(Final Attack Ride. D-D-D-Decade!) (Choine! Kick Strike! Saiko!) (Flaming Crushing Bite!!)

Magma looks up in time to see Decade along with his brothers back in their base forms come down on him from the sky with all threes Rider Kicks going straight through him. All three of them stood up straight as Magma fell to his back couple feet behind them exploding.

They look back with Jurassic doing a claw motion over his chest. "Extinct." "YES!!" Sunset and Flash high five each other happy from seeing their friends being victorious.

"Seems like things have finished off here as well." The two turn to see Zero-One in his base form and Applejack run up to them. "Sorry fer bein' late." "But good to see no one is hurt." He looks over to where Magma had exploded. "So, who exactly was it that turned into Magma?"

Sunset's eyes go wide. "That's right! I forgot to let them know Magma was a citizen that was forced to become a kaiju!"

She and Applejack ran over to Magma with Zero-One and Flash following. Flam was laying where Magma had exploded looking a little beat up, along with one tip end of his mustache being on fire. The four circled around him along with the three brother Riders who had walked up to him.

They find the Magma Memory next to Flam before it shatters and restores itself. It's now a transparent orange memory with a molten rock shaped in a 'V' with 'VOLCANO' in black letters on the side.

"Do Gaia Memorys normally do that?" Jurassic asked Zero-One who picks it up.

"No. The Memorys just shatter when defeated. This is the first I've seen this happen." He answered looking over the Memory for a moment before he stops what he's doing along with Jurassic and Decade. "GET DOWN!!" (Elek Steam!) The three Riders immediately put themselves in front of Wizard and their three friends a second before the electrical steam slash hits them, causing a small explosion that knocks them all to the ground.

Their transformations come undone as the Gaia Memory and a couple other items fell a few feet ahead of them. Lying next to the Memory are the penguin, shark and beetle keys. As well as the shark and whale medals that Discord had brought back with him.

"What a coincidence running into all of you here." Faust spoke out to them as he walked up and stopped in front of the items. "How nice. You even brought me some gifts. You shouldn't have."

His hand glowed crimson with the same glow appearing around the items as they lifted into the air in front of him along with the others he had taken from their friends.

"Seems today's haul is great." Faust chuckled before looking to Drago and the others. "Thanks for the entertainment, Riders. Let me give you a reward." Holding up his dagger, he twists the nozzle three times. (Devil Steam!) He aims towards Sunset before launching steam slash at her with the weapon making an evil laugh, followed by a blood curdling scream.

"NO!!" Flash screamed out holding his hand out towards Sunset wanting to protect her. A glowing blurred symbol appeared on the back of his hand surprising everyone, including himself and Faust.

A strange roar is heard echoing around them before a fireball comes flying into the steam slash as it came close to getting her. The group looked up in the air behind them to see what looks like a mirror with cracked edges floating. But shatters and disappears a second after.

"Interesting." Faust said to himself looking down at Flash. "Seems what the master predicted was right. It won't be long till the rest of the Riders awaken. That's when the real fun will begin. Until next time, Riders. Ciao." He said turning around and walking away from them as darkness covered him making him disappear.

Drago lets out a tired sigh before standing up along with the others. "Is everyone okay?"

"Yeah, I think so." Sunset answered as she and the others stood up. "But I'd really like it if we didn't make getting chased around by Kaiju a daily thing." "I'm with yah there." Applejack said agreeing.

"If you're always around us, then I wouldn't bet on that." Discord looks to Drago. "By the way, does anyone know who that guy was? And why'd he tried to kill Sunny here?"

He shrugs to his brother. "Not really sure. We barely met the guy yesterday." "And he wasn't trying to kill Sunset." Negi spoke up. "What he had was a weapon known as the Steam Blade. And it was a weapon mostly used by the villains of Build's world."

"Evil weapon ta go with an evil villain. Makes sense." Applejack said tapping her chin for a second. "Though what do yah mean he wasn't tryin' ta kill Sunset?"

"The attack he used, Devil Steam, is a gas known as Nebula Gas which can change people into the kaijus known as Smash. He was probably planning to have Sunset attack us."

"I would've hated becoming a kaiju again." Sunset looks down with a sad look. "God only knows what everyone at school would think if I became one again."

Negi puts a hand on her shoulder. "But everything is alright now. We were lucky Dragreder came and saved her in time." "Dragreder?" He nods to Spike. "Yes. It's the name of Kamen Rider Ryuki's partner. A red dragon."

Everyone looks to Flash with a shocked, surprised look. "Does that mean-" Drago nods without looking to Spike. "Yup. Flash is now a candidate to become Ryuki."

Flash puts his hands in his jacket's pockets while trying to take in on how he's a candidate to becoming a Rider. Though the second he did, he feels and pulls out a grayed card. On the card is only a picture of a Chinese dragon with what looks like flames in the background.

Dark Realm

"You've done well." Reaper congratulated Brutus, Faust and Molten while having the Riders items and core floating in between them. "You did lose most of the original ones that were intended. But you did bring more than what was expected."

Molten walks away to the side and up to one of the crystal spikes. "You may consider this a success. But not me." With anger flooding him, Molten thrusts his fist into the spike and shatters a chunk of it off. "Despite having him out numbered, I still lost to Zero-One again. Someone who should've been defeated easily."

"Yes. It was absolutely pathetic." Faust spoke up walking into the middle between Molten and his other two allies. "To think you lost so poorly to Zero-One not once but twice. He defeated you so badly that he didn't even bother to capture you. Definitely proved how weak and sad you are."

Molten had just stood there taking in each word as his fist tightened. When Faust had finished, Molten turns to swing his fist at him. But he halts the moment his ally holds up the deck box from the shop.

"But maybe you just need something the Riders have never faced before." Tossing the box to Reaper, Faust begins to walk away. "I'm sure you can make something interesting out of those."

They watched as Faust disappeared into darkness. Reaper slides the front of the box to find a card at the front of the deck of a robotic looking dinosaur-like creature with a name at the bottom saying 'CYBER GOMORA'

Police Station

Hours after, Autumn and Shining were standing inside the chief's office where they had just finished reporting on everything that had happened with them and what they were told by the other girls on what happened with them.

"Faust, huh?" "Yes sir. From what we learned; this man was responsible for today's monster attack." Dusk leaned back in his chair as Shining spoke. "Did you learn anything else about this man?" "Other than he's in possession of items that create these monsters. And the possibility that he isn't human."

"What do you mean he isn't human?" "We don't actually have any proof, sir. But from what this man was able to do, there just wasn't something normal about him." Autumn had answered their chief's question.

Dusk seemed to be in his thoughts about something. "If what you're saying is true, then we might need more than just you two if hell breaks loose from this man creating a large number of monsters." He looks down at two folders on his desk with one having 'BIRTH' and the other 'IXA'. "Seems we might need these after all."

Next to the folder are three Rider items. One is the cheetah key that Shining had been given. The other two are the wolf Fullbottle and wolf fish Core Medal.

The Dragons Cavern

Aside from Rainbow's group, the rest of the gang had gathered back at the cafe where they're seated close to the cafe's counter. They were all seated close to each other as they watch the video recording of Autumn and Shining's battle.

Emerald comes walking out of the cafe's kitchen with cups of water on a tray along with Derpy and Turner following behind her with a tray of muffins and fruits in their hands.

"Now I hope you five will be finishing on cleaning up the cafe and library before needing to leave home, right?" Emerald questioned Spike and his friends while placing down the trays. "Yes, Miss Emerald." "Good."

Applejack and the others raised a brow at this. "Emerald if you don't mind, why are yah makin' them clean everything?"

"Oh. They haven't told you what they did?"

Flashback

Within the library, book by book in the middle gets shot down by Spike and Sweetie Belle. From how the game has gone, Spike had won the last three matches against Scootaloo, Rumble and Apple Bloom.

Spike kept having the highest score when it came to the three matches. But as for the fourth, Sweetie was surprisingly a great shot from how she kept getting every five pointers she aimed at. This was actually her and Spike's fifth round from how they kept ending on a draw.

"Another draw." Apple Bloom declared.

"Damn it. Sweetie Belle, how are you so good at shooting?" Spike asked her with a smile. "It's not every day you meet a natural with a gun."

She shrugs. "I don't know. I've never even played any gun arcade games. It just feels so simple." Sweetie looks around the room seeing a bit of the books damaged. "Is Miss Emerald going to be alright with all this?"

Rumble tapped his chin in thought. "That is true. Emerald usually got really mad whenever Blaze damaged the books and cafe itself. Or even when Discord caused trouble when pulling pranks."

"I'm sure it'll be fine." Scootaloo spoke out with Apple Bloom looking at her confused. "What makes yah so sure about that?" "Well, Spike does have that spell to restore everything, right Spike?"

"Yup, exactly." Spike answered confidently. None of them take notice of a flash of light behind them. "Normally, aunt Emerald would still kill me for even messing with her cafe, but since she isn't here right now. So, what she doesn't know won't hurt her."

"What exactly are you guys doing?" They jump to their left from having been startled and quickly look to their right to find Build and OOO standing next to them. "BUILD!! OOO!!" The CMC hug the two Riders. "I thought they would've found it weird to find us here, right?" He asked looking to OOO.

Rumble moves to stand in front of them. "It's alright guys. They found out thanks to magic boy over here." He shrugged towards Spike.

"Wait. Is he this world's Spike?" "Yes I am. I'm Spike Drake. Discord and Drago's little brother." From underneath their masks, both Riders were a bit shocked to hear this. "Huh. You learn something new every day. Hey Emerald, did you-" OOO goes silent the moment he looked behind them.

Having heard the name, Spike and his friends froze. They slowly turned towards the same direction as OOO. There they find Emerald just standing there giving them a nice, warm smile. But they could tell underneath that she was feeling the opposite of what she's showing.

"Spike, my dear nephew of this world, why is my cafe a mess?" They all feel the chill of the voice despite it sounding nice and caring. "W-Well, y-you see I-I was going to fix everything using my-" "Oh my Spike, do you think that still gets you out of what you've done?" She questioned him with a smile. Yet Spike could swear he could see an angry aura surrounding her.

Both Riders step aside and walk away as she walked slowly up to Spike and his friends. "Hm?" Build barely caught a glimpse of a light under Spike's jacket. He walks over to it while Emerald began scolding the five in the background.

End of Flashback

"After Connor saw there was an emergency, he, Spike and Reiji left to go help." Emerald finished explaining.

"So, which Riders are these?" "Not sure." Negi answered Sunset while Apple Bloom, Spike and Sweetie began to be lectured by their older siblings. "How do you not know? I thought you guys know everything about the Riders."

"The only one of us who'd probably know everything about the Riders would probably be Connor. As for these Riders," He pauses to look back at the video. "None of them is a main Rider like us and unless any of them know about the Riders, then they'll most likely come up with the names on their own. If we give them a name that's different from what they chose, it'd just confuse them."

"So, in short, they're useless to us." Discord said taking a muffin from the tray.

Applejack looks up to Rarity. "I still can't believe yah gave them one of Negi's keys."

"I'm sorry. They caught us at a bad moment trying to look for Blaze and Razor. Besides it was their idea to hand over the key." They all look to said small dinosaurs who are being petted in Fluttershy's lap. "I'm sure they did it because they saw we were in trouble."

"We aren't much different." Drago spoke up. "Discord gave Sunset the wolf fish medal he had to give the police so they wouldn't question them on why the kaiju were after them."

"Glad to see we all came up with the same idea." They turn to the entrance to see Rainbow's group walk in with Connor holding Applejack's bass guitar. "Sorry we took so long. Had to stop by to pick something up." He walks over to Applejack and holds out her bass to her. "I believe this is yours."

Despite being shocked, she gladly took her guitar. "My- My bass. H-How- How'd you-"

He points to Pinkie and Rainbow with a smile. "They filled me in on what happened. So, after doing some quick studying with Zea's help, I went to go pay a visit to Flim and Flam at the hospital. We had a little talk about how a group of people were searching for them because their boss wanted to discuss about a product they had sold them a while back. After that, they were happy to lower the price to a penny that was there on the floor."

"It's good to see we're all back together again." Reiji said as he sat down in between Flash and Negi. "You would not believe everything that happened in Equestria. Though it was a surprise to hear we have a Wizard Spike here now." He looks over to Spike with his friends sitting next to him. "The you in Equestria actually became a Rider too."

Spike smiled at this news. "Really? That's so cool. Hm? I wonder if our belts would still work if we switched."

"It's pretty cool to see how many Riders are here." Rumble had said with Scootaloo taking over. "Yeah. In total we have eight Riders here if you include Flash."

Derpy pulls out her Ridewatch. "Actually, it's nine. Or is it ten? Because Turner is one too but is the same one as me."

Being brought up, Turner brings out his as well. "We're both Zi-O."

"What?!" Rainbow and all the others, aside from Ressha and Discord, shouted surprised. "No way! You two are Riders?!" Rainbow runs over to Derpy's side to take a closer look at the watch.

Connor sighs. "Seems we all have a lot of fill in to do."

To Be Continued

Chapter 9 Edited- The Depths One Would Go

The Police Station

"TRANSFERED?!" An enraged Shining Armor yelled slamming his hands onto Dusk's desk. He and Autumn were in the chief's office, standing in front of the desk where Dusk is looking over some files. "What the hell do you mean by we're being transferred?"

"Does this have to do with us having the Drivers?" Autumn asked with a sadden expression. "Are we not welcomed here anymore?"

Dusk sighs rubbing the bridge of his nose while setting the file he's reading over down. "Look, Miss Chrysalis thinks it'd better if the two of you work alongside them in special defense force that Zea Everwood company will be forming to face off against both the kaiju and the Riders."

Shining crosses his arms. "And you expect us to just go along with this?"

"No, detective. I expect you to follow orders. This order isn't just come from me and Chrysalis, even the mayor wants you both to join the new force. Your things have already been sent over the Zea's company building. All that's left now is for you to head there to meet your captain."

"But chief-" "Enough, Detective Shining! This is not up for discussion. I advise you both to head there now. From what me and your captain discussed, she won't be happy if you're late on the first day of the job."

Shining seemed to have wanted to continue arguing but while picking the file backup, the chief silents him by lifting up a finger and then points it towards the door for them to leave. The two stood there for a second before walking out of the office and to their now empty desks.

Autumn checks over and inside her desk to make sure nothing was forgotten. "I'm a bit sad I have to leave this desk so soon after I got it but I'm really curious on what our new station will look like. And from what the chief said, do you think our captain is going to be someone tough and scary?"

"If the chief was fine with sending us over after speaking to her, then she must be trustworthy. That's all that matters in my book." Shining answered leaning against his desk. "What I'm more curious about is what the Riders are up to."

Canterlot High

The time hits 10:21am with the school's bell ringing. The hallways become filled with students leaving their classrooms.
as they make their way towards their next classes. Amongst all the students is Reiji who is walking beside Wallflower Blush.

"So, where exactly were you yesterday?" Wallflower asked as they walked. "I almost thought you had forgotten about like everyone else. But then I overheard some other students talk about how you and a couple others were absent."

"I'm not sure about everyone else but there were some things I had to take care off." "Which was?" Reiji chuckles nervously trying to think of a quick excuse. "Um...Well, you see"

Wallflower sadly sighs. "It's alright. You don't have to tell me. We aren't exactly close friends. I can get why you wouldn't want to talk about everything." Reiji seemed to want to say something after thinking for a few seconds, but she cuts him off by changing the subject. "Can I ask you for a favor? I was planning to head to the hardware store to get new seeds to add into my garden at home, along with maybe getting some new tools. Would you like to come along and help me out?"

"O-Oh, you like to garden?"

Wallflower nods with a smile. "I loved it ever since an old neighbor of ours first showed me how to. She and her husband taught me how wonderful and rewarding it is to help plants grow. Which also adds more beauty to nature."

As she continued speaking, they passed by the side windows of the school that faced towards the soccer field. Reiji takes a moment to look outside at what looks like a beautiful day to him. He was about to face back when he catches a glimpse of someone in a red business suit leaning against a tree giving him a smirk. Knowing instantly who it was, Reiji stops in his tracks to look back but finds the person gone.

"I was thinking of maybe getting some Cosmos seeds to add to my garden. Although maybe...Hm?" Wallflower notices Reiji isn't next to her anymore. She looks back seeing him stare outside, noticing he seems to be searching around outside. "Reiji? Is something wrong?" She asked after walking back to him.

Shaking his head, Reiji faces back to her smiling. "No. It was nothing. I just thought I saw someone I knew."

Wallflower could tell he wasn't being completely truthful to her but decided not to try pushing him for an answer and instead say, "Well, we should hurry to class before Mr. Cranky gets upset with you being late." Reiji nodded before they continued on towards class. "Wait. Why would he only get upset with me?" "Because he never remembers about me."

"One of the perks of that curse I presume." Reiji spoke in a joking matter causing his friend to smile. "Maybe. Sucks to be you now, isn't it." "You can say that again." He sarcastically said before the two laughed.

While laughing, the thought of who he thinks he saw still stuck in his mind. 'If that really was that Faust guy, then trouble might just be around the corner again.'

[Cue Opening]

Zea's Company Building

Shining and Autumn had walked into a large building with 20 floor levels and a 'Z' in the middle of a green forest looking logo at the top of the building. Inside the two find Chrysalis waiting for them next to the front desk.

After greeting each other, she leads them into one of the elevators where she holds her company ID in front of a scanner and then uses the elevator's buttons to punch in a number keycode. Instead of going up, the elevator began to descend for a few moments before opening into a large control room filled with people stationed at computers with fit looking woman in a blue uniform, with the company's logo on the sides of the shoulders, standing in front of a large monitor.

The image of a different Driver is being displayed on the large monitor as it's analyzed. The black strapped belt's buckle seemed to be missing its right half. The buckle is silver with a bit of blue on the sides while the middle had a red circle with black and gold colors around it. On the sides of the belt were two silver holders with both having three objects in the slots. The screen then changed to a knuckle weapon looking item with the same design as the belt's buckle.

The three walk up to the orange-ish woman, who turns to face them with her arms crossed and her light orange eyes giving them off a serious stare. Her long black hair was held up in a ponytail with a red hair tie that has a sun attached to it.

"Shining Armor, Autumn Blaze, I'd like you to meet Elanor Solar. As captain, you'll be following her orders both here and out in the field."

Autumn and Shining looked at each other for a moment before Shining steps up. "Detective Shining Armor, reporting for duty, ma'am. It's nice to meet y-" He holds out his hand to shake but next thing Shining knew, he is getting flipped by Elanor and slammed onto the floor. "Shining!" Autumn runs to her friend's side to help him up. "Argh! Thanks. Shit. Ugh...What the hell was that for?"

"That's disappointing." Elanor's action had startled everyone in the room. "To think you're my mentor's nephew. Seems like yesterday's battle really was just all the Driver's power."

Shining is taken aback by her words. "You've worked with my uncle before?"

She smirks at the question. "Yup. Learned just about everything I know from him. He was one hell of a strict mentor that pushed me to my limits in training and when on cases bringing down crooks. But he also knew when to be kind and supportive." Her smirk then changes into a frown. "Sad to see he didn't teach you anything."

"He did offer but I wanted to try learning and gaining experience on my own. When you're related to a great officer like my uncle, others tend to judge you for the wrong reasons. That's why I want to become as great as him on my own."

Elanor stared at him for a moment before smiling and walking to one of the nearby tables. "Then you have a long way to work up to. Here put these on." She had said while picking up two uniforms that on the desk and tosses them to the two. "We may still be part of the police force but these uniforms will help people know what department we're part of."

"What is this department's force called?" Elanor grins at Autumn's question.

"Oh, that's right. No one has told you yet, right? Then let me be the first to welcome you both to the Everfree Guardians."

Within the Dark Realm

Brutus sat onto tipped crystal tower while leaning his back against another. He was lost in thought as he thought back on his tests against Build and Zero-One. First was Build's full use of the Fullbottles both as forms and attacks with his weapon. Then there was Zero-One's different fighting styles used to defeat Molten and the Magias.

Brutus chuckles. "Now, who should be next."

"I suggest OOO."

Faust came walking up from the right with a huge grin. Following behind him was Gilda who could easily be seen to be in a foul mood from her expression alone. As the two got closer, Brutus could see Faust tossing the shark and whale medals up and down in his left hand.

"Why OOO?" Brutus questioned crossing his arms. "Den-O, Decade and Wizard seem like they'd be worth testing."

"No reason. Just seems like he'd be interesting enough to provide some entertainment." He catches the medals mid-air. "Just leave him to me. Maybe you'll find the answer you want from him by this method."

"Nothing I say matters. Only the master and Reaper can control you. So, do as you wish." Is all he answers to Faust before standing up and walking past him. He stop for a moment to say, "You did hear of the master's order to cease using the Primal Cores for the moment, right?"

Faust waves it off. "Of course. Which is what I plan to do. Even I wouldn't be crazy enough to go against orders." Hearing the answer, Brutus says nothing else as he continues walking off. Faust looks back at him with a smug grin as he walked away. "True. But it wouldn't be fun if I at least didn't ruin your plans by getting on your nerves." He snaps his fingers looking towards a crystal pillar with an image of Reiji sitting in the middle of class appear on it. "Now all that's left is to set the game."

Hours Later

Reiji and Wallflower were now walking alongside each other again on the sidewalk as they made their way to the hardware store. The two had met up right after school and took a bus into the city.

He tried seeing if any of his friends would want to join in but unfortunately the others seemed to already have other plans. Such as Negi who had left with Applejack to help out at her farm since they were short at hand with workers. He also saw it as an opportunity to do some training by using the apple trees. Or like Rarity, Ressha and Discord who'd gone to volunteer with Fluttershy at the shelter.

Drago went to the cafe to help Emerald. To his surprise, Sunset asked if she could go along with to help out. Spike and his friends were with them at the cafe as well. But they were there to help Connor in the garage to assist him in a new invention and with eliminating residue that could've remained from Scorpion's poison on the bikes and weapons.

"Wish my bike didn't need a tune up. We could've been done quicker that way." Reiji had lied about the reason, since he couldn't tell her the truth.

She had peaked at him a few times while spoke. The reason for this is because as Reiji walked, he'd be picking up any litter and trash that he came upon.

Wallflower sighs, frowning. "You know, you didn't have to come if you didn't want to."

He panics raising his hands up. "No! It's nothing like that! I just thought I could maybe see your garden if we-" Reiji stops and smiles when Wallflower starts giggling. "Oh, hardie har. Laugh it up why don't cha'. Should've guessed I was being played."

"Sorry. It's just fun to see your reactions." She spoke between her laughing before calming down. "You really care about what you say to others."

"Yeah, I guess I got that from having been part many fund raisers, volunteer help my parents had me be a part of with them, and- Wait. Hold on a sec. I'll be right back."

"O...okay?"

Wallflower watched her friend run across the street to a fast-food restaurant. He comes back out after a few minutes with four full bags. She was confused by this, wondering what he plans to do with all that food. Coming back across, he walks past her and into an alleyway where she watches him hand over the food to some homeless people. They all begin crowding around to thank him. Wallflower holds back a laugh from seeing Reiji struggle for a moment to excuse himself and break free to rejoin her.

"That was nice of you to do." Reiji looks away feeling a bit embarrassed which makes her giggles.

"Anyways, where were we? Oh, that's right. Well being a part of all those events, I learned some people can get hurt by what you say. Which happened to me a few times. Especially love stuck girls." He embarrassingly mumbled the last part before clearing his throat to continue. "So, I always panic a bit when someone takes what I say the wrong way."

"Does that mean your parent's run a company or something? Is that why you go to so many events?"

Reiji cursed himself mentally when he realized his mistake. He keeps forgetting he's not in his original world and the probability of a company with the same name as his family's is low. Especially the part with them taking part in many events would most likely be impossible to find.

"Well...They used to. But they...uh...had to...sell the company when they weren't able to spend much time with everyone they cared about. So, they thought living a more peaceful life would be more enjoyable if it meant they wouldn't be so busy anymore. Now they just run a small bakery back over in Japan."

Wallflower almost trips herself from the shock. "Japan!? If they're in Japan, what are you doing all the way out here in the US?" She questioned after having been shocked.

Reiji stayed silent for a moment while scratching the back of his head before he answered saying, "Let's just say things happened that lead me to this point."

Hearing that, she stares down at the floor felling like she asked a question she shouldn't have. "Sorry if I crossed a line."

"Crossed a line? Huh. Hey, do you need help?" Quickening his pace, Reiji rushes ahead to a little girl who's looking up a tree with tears. He crouches next to her while asking, "What's the matter?"

"M-My kitty won't come down." The girl said between sniffles.

Having caught up, Wallflower looks up the tall tree along with him to find a black and white kitten at the top. Not showing any hesitation, Reiji climbing up the tree without saying a word. He reached the top in no time, safely tucked the kitten into his jacket, and held it close until reaching the bottom.

"Marble!" The little girl shouts with joy. Wallflower feels happy for the girl of getting her kitten back. Though what fills her heart with warmth is seeing the kindness in Reiji's smile. "Thank you for saving Marble."

"No problem. I'm just happy to be helpful." He then pets Marble. "And you should try not to worry your owner so much."

The girl shouts, "Bye!" with a smile as the two continue off on their way. After walking for a bit, Wallflower looks down with a saddened frown. "Sorry again if I crossed a line by asking that question before."

Wallflower looks back to see Reiji wave it off while saying, "Nah. It's fine. It's nothing that big a deal. Just something I'm still trying to- Oh. Hold that thought."

Without another word, Wallflower watched him go into a clothing store where two female workers could be seen through the window. They seemed to be arguing about something until Reiji interrupts them. He talks to them while pointing to different parts of the store. By the end the two were smiling and shaking his hand before waving him off.

"Do you know them?" She questions him as they resume walking. "Nope. Just gave them a helping hand." "I saw you pointing around the store. What exactly did you help them with?"

"They were having trouble deciding on how to redesign the store. I just gave them my opinion and pointed out what they could change to draw in more customers. It was enough to help them figure the rest out."

"You're really amazing, Reiji. You help solve disputes, pick up litter as you walk, spend so much to feed a group of homeless people and a place to stay, helped a little girl get her kitten down from a tree. I've never heard of anyone who'd go so far out of their way to help others like how you're doing."

He blushes a bit from the prese. "Haha nah. What I did is nothing special."

"No, that's not true. What you do really is amazing. Compared to me and a few others, your-" Not finding Reiji next to her, Wallflower looks back to find him having stopped in his tracks again. He had spotted Faust walking ahead from across the street. Wallflower tried following his line of sight but missed Faust as he turned around a corner.

"Reiji? What's the matter? Did you see someone you know?"

"Maybe. I'm not sure." 'He's purposely doing this. What could he be up to? If he's anything like Evolt, then it could be something dangerous.' After thinking this, he turns back to Wallflower. "Sorry, can you go ahead of me? I know it's most likely the wrong person, but I want to make sure. I promise to rush back over after checking."

She stays silent for a few seconds before answering. "Yeah. It's fine. Just don't rush yourself."

Reiji smiles. "No can do. My life is all about rushing around." Is all he says before rushing off and shouting back, "I'll meet you there as soon as I can."

Wallflower watched as her friend rushed on ahead before running across the street and disappearing from sight after turning around the corner.

"I hope he'll be okay." She said to herself and then continues her walk to the hardware store.

The Dragons Cavern

Business was going as well as usual. People of all ages were enjoying day. Some were searching out books, others seated enjoying the book they were either reading or using for studying, and the rest talking to each other in the cafe section.

Emerald was at the cafe's library counter, helping some people check out books. Over in the cafe's area, Sunset just finishes cleaning off a table at the moment. She then walks into the kitchen where Drago is preparing a latte for a customer. The two stop what they're doing for a moment when a faint rumble sound could be heard from a vent.

"What was that?"

Drago sighs with a grin. "Sounds like another one of Connor's tests gone wrong. He usually doesn't get to that until closing time. I'm sure from the help Spike and his friends are helping him along faster than usual."

"It'd be nice if they were helping around here instead." "Can't be helped. Unlike the rest of us, Spike's friends don't trust you yet." She knew full well that just about everyone in the school still doesn't see her in a good light and that it would take some time for her wrong doings to be forgiven. "I really wish Flash wasn't grounded for having recked his car. Then he could've been helping out too."

"Hopefully that changes soon. Connor he would do something to fix that."

Inside the garage, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle peak out from behind Spike who had used the Defend ring. The three were by Connor and Reiji's bikes, wearing protective suits and have a spray gun-like tool in their hands. They looked to the table counter that has what looks to be the remains of a gun. An annoyed looking Connor stood up from behind the table. He then reaches down and pulls up Rumble and Scootaloo.

"What was it about "Do not touch" that you two didn't understand?"

Scootaloo and Rumble point at each other. "It was him./It was her." They then glare at each other before both saying, "It wasn't me. It was you! No, you!"

Deciding to ignore the two arguing, Connor picks up the gun to examine. Most of the circuits were fried along with the gun's barrel completely burnt up. He sighs tossing it into a bin of other failed protypes of the gun before ending the argument between Scootaloo and Rumble by forcefully dragging them over to a table against the wall.

An unframed weapon was already set on a workbench with a screen on the wall showing the schematics for it. The completed design to be wrist piledrive-looking weapon. Having a mostly grey and red color scheme with a bit of silver, the front of weapon is shaped like the head of a rhino while the sides seem to have a hair dryer like design.

"You want to help?" He forces them to take a seat. "Then finish the final adjustments to this. But if you mess this up, you two aren't allowed in the garage for a week." Not wanting to be banned from the garage, Scootaloo and Rumble carefully begin working on the weapon.

Connor left them to work on the task while he went back to the center table. He knew Scootaloo and Rumble would not want to be left out of any new experiments or inventions and work well to not fail. Reaching the table, a digital keyboard and screen appear with the data of the gun on it. He begins typing rapidly, entering new data with eyes never leaving the screen. The gun's design comes apart before reconfiguring back together into the design of a blaster with a hand guard.

"This new system should help prevent the energy feedback. Zea, I'll leave the design to you if it succeeds." Entering the new design, the faint sounds of machinery moving could be heard for a moment from underneath them. "Hm?"

A message indicator appeared on the screen. This was bizarre to Connor since no one from the outside should be able to access their system. With curiosity getting the best of him, Connor opens the message to read. Spike, Apple Bloom and Sweetie were in the middle of spraying down Reiji's Ride Machine. But their attention is drawn away when an engine starting up spooks them from behind. They turn to find Connor having mounted onto his own bike.

Apple Bloom is the first to speak. "Um...Sorry, Connor, but we haven't cleaned off your bike yet."

"It's fine. I need to use it. Rainbow Dash just sent me a message to meet her at the school." "But you said- Eep!" Sweetie hid behind Spike when Connor shoots them a glare. "I said it's fine." The three stay silent and watch as Connor drives out the garage.

"That was a bit scary." Sweetie commented while Apple Bloom looked to Spike. "What do yah think was the matter with him?"

He shrugs crossing his arms. "No clue. Maybe Rainbow did something to piss him off."

Within the City

"Turner, how many more places do we have to go to?"

Turner comes to a stop at a red light in a jeep with Derpy sitting in the passenger seat. The jeep is a blue two door Jeep Wrangler with a back seat and retractable roof that was down at the moment, leaving the jeep roofless. While Turner is at the wheel, Derpy is holding onto a tablet with a map of the city on the screen.

"There should only be two more areas we need to go to. After that, we should be able to head back." He said answering Derpy's question while tapping his chin. With the light changing to green, he continues going forward down the street.

"That's good to hear." She takes a moment to take in the inside of the jeep. "I still can't believe Zea would make us this jeep to use. I thought we would've been given bikes just like Drago and the others."

Turner chuckled at the thought. "I think Zea made the right choice in giving us this jeep to use. I doubt either of us would be able to drive a motorcycle well." He smiles when he hears his friend chuckle, knowing she was feeling embarrassed.

"That's true. I never was able to keep my balance on my bike." She admitted while rubbing the side of her arm. "Though I do wonder what else uh...the um...the..." "The Millenia Cruser." "Right, the Millenia Cruser! I'm curious what the Millenia is able to do. You know, like how the other's bikes can do those cool amazing things. Maybe it can- huh? Isn't that Reiji?"

Lucky coming to halt at a stop sign, Turner got the chance to see Derpy point across the street to their right. Following the direction, he catches sight of Reiji running down the sidewalk while making sure to avoid crashing into other people he ran by.

"Is he chasing after someone?" Derpy asked, curious to what could be happening.

"I don't know. But there's one way to find out." Turner proceeds to the right of the street to follow after their friend.

Reiji on the other hand continued his chase on Faust. Every time he managed to catch up to him but the moment he turned a corner after Faust, he'd find the villain either far down the street or was already across the street. No matter what he'd do, Faust would've gained some distance between them but not to far to lose sight of him.

"I was right. He's leading me somewhere." After crossing the street and taking a right, he spots the villain not that far ahead of him. "But what's his game? What's he trying to accomplish by doing this? Shit!"

Seeing Faust turn early into an alleyway, he rushes after him. Though he finds no one when entering the alleyway. He slowly proceeds further in with his guard him. No signs of Faust could be seen anywhere. But next thing Reiji knows, he gets blindsided by a kick phasing through a wall. sending into a building's door, breaking it off its hinges and sliding into the middle of what seems like a gym with him onto of it. It still seems to be in the middle of being built judging by how the windows are boarded up and how the room is only part ways finished.

While standing back up, Faust comes walking in with his hands in his pockets. "What's the matter, OOO? Didn't you see me standing there?" He spoke sarcastically with a smile. From his left pocket, he pulls out the ghost Fullbottle. "I'll have to thank Build for his generous donations."

"You really caught me by surprise there." Dusting himself off, Reiji finds a tear on his jacket's right sleeve. "And now I'll have to ask Rarity to repair this. So, what exactly would you want from little old me, Faust?"

"Just a bit bored and thought I'd come entertain myself. Simple as that." He tosses up and catches the bottle. "What do you say, OOO? Are you game?"

Before Reiji could respond, Faust dashes forward as a red blur and knocks him down but uses the momentum to stand back up. "Speeds huh? Fine by me."

After crossing his arms and changing the red and green on his clothes to yellow, Reiji as a yellow blur runs after Faust. The two run all around the floor and walls of the gym. The chase comes to an end after a moment near the entrance with Faust slamming Reiji down through what was the front desk.

Reiji is being held down by his throat. "You call that entertainment? That wasn't even much of a chase."

"Then how about this." Changing the yellow to green, he shocks Faust off with green electricity. While stumbling back, two Reiji clones grab onto both his arms. "Good enough for you now?" He said pouncing at the villain.

Reacting quickly, Faust takes a step to the side with what little movement he has to avoid Reiji and kicks him to the side. "Not even close." Pulling his arms inward, he slams the two clones into each other and tosses them off him. "I doubt you could defeat any experience users in magic, let alone be a challenge with magic that's yet to be molded properly."

"Oh, really? Then what do these say about you?" Reiji holds up yellow energy claw blades with a grin.

Looking at the teen, his eyes grew wide when they set onto items in his hands and between the claws. In Reiji's hands are a light blue bear and yellow giraffe Progrise Keys. While four Astro Switches and seven Fullbottles being held in the claws. The numbers 12, 19, 24, and 37 are on the switches. The Fullbottles are magnet, ghost, an azure bottle with a skull in front of two crossed swords, lime green train, purple spider, green skateboard, and scarlet engine.

He barely takes notice of Reiji's colors having gone back to three colors. Looking down at his pants left pocket, he finds it had been torn with a scarlet red void on the inside. Faust was speechless by how quick the teen had changed back to the three colors and managed to not only tear into his pocket but also take some of the Rider items out of them.

"Not bad, huh? Just a little trick I picked up from a reformed pickpocket friend back in my old world." He smiles softly at a memory of a black-haired middle-aged woman. "She always told me it's a skill that could come in handy one day." He brought out of his memories upon hearing a soft chuckle.

Looking back to his enemy, he watched small chuckles escape his mouth. Faust had been silent up until this moment. At first, he's chuckling with a small grin, but he then begins laughing hysterically like a lunatic with a huge, wicked smile.

"It's been a while since I've been filled with so many emotions at once. So much rage, frustration, joy, embarrassment, interest, and" He pauses to reach into the torn pocket and pulls out the (Steam Blade!) "some bloodlust."

Faust charges up to Reiji, barely giving him a chance to roll to the side to avoid the first swing and then ducks rolling forward under the next. He quickly puts the items away before turning to face the villain. Reiji moves side to side jumps back to avoid the swings and strikes. He catches the next strike, holding onto Faust's right arm and tries elbowing his enemy with his other arm. Faust catches the hit with his free hand, then follows with sweeping his foot under Reiji to knock him to the floor.

"Ugh. Ah!" Reiji quickly creates the claw blades to stop the Steam Blade that was coming down on him. Feeling Faust trying to press the blade down on him, he kicks the villain off and rolls onto one knee. (Ice Steam!) The weapon announced after Faust turned the nozzle. "Oh shit."

Faust swings sending freezing slashes, trying to hit the teen as he ran and jumped around to avoid becoming a popsicle. Outside people began screaming and running away from the scene when some of the slashes go through the wall and freeze random objects they hit.

Everfree Guardians

From a staircase located on either side of the front of the control room, Elanor led her subordinates down the steps to an open space with two vehicles parked on it. One being a motorcycle and the other being police car.

The cycle is a black and white Suzuki RF model with gold lining the edges. Siren lights are built into the front and back of the bike. Twin pulsar laser cannons are equipped at the front of the bike and thruster vents on the back sides. The car is a bright blue Dodge Charger Pursuit with curved siren lights on the roof. The hood, trunk, and side doors have red streaks with silver lining the sides of it.

"WOW!! Are these for us?" Autumn runs over to the vehicles the moment they reached the bottom of the stairs and began to look them over with excitement while Shining holds a hand over his face feeling embarrassed by his partner's behavior.

Elanor smiles at the act. "Yes. These, along with maybe more to come, will be for us to use while out on the field. Or on patrol." She looks to the car Autumn is looking into. "The first here is the Siren Hunter. The armored frame is strong enough to take explosive hits, along with speed that can easily keep up with Riders. Its equipped twin grappling hooks that unfold from the front bumper, twin plasma cannons that are hidden as part of the car's siren, and capture nets that are stored on the inside of the front doors."

"And this over here is the Command Chaser." She said holding out her hand to a motorcycle. "Being built for speed and maneuverability, it's the ideal machine for chasing down criminals and kaiju. The front is equipped with twin pulsar laser cannons, acceleration boosters in the back, the siren lights also act as scanner to assist with hunting targets, and an autopilot to drive itself in case the driver's hands are occupied."

"They can really do all that? That's so cool! Don't you think so too, Shining?" Autumn turned asking Shining who nods.

"Yeah, they are." He looks to the captain. "But captain, why haven't these been used before if they're so amazing? Seems like they would've been a waist just sitting around."

Elanor shakes her head. "That's because they were created by the company for our personal use only. Plus, who know what criminals or other companies would do if they could get their hands on a model like these. The CEO also-"

A small alarm goes off right then. The three look up the steps to the control room where one of the female personnel looked down at them from the top of the steps. She shouts down to them saying, "There's an emergency in one of the shopping districts. There seems to be a commotion coming from within a gym that's still in the process of being built. Attacks come out from it that are freezing everything they hit."

"Sounds the Riders fighting a kaiju." Elanor turns to Shining and Autumn. "Shining, you and Autumn are to follow me to the scene in the Siren Hunter while I take the Command Chaser." "Yes, ma'am!!" The two shouted saluting her. "Alright then. Let's me out!"

Elanor mounted onto the bike while Shining and his partner got into the Hunter. "Raise up the platform." The female personnel ordered with one of the others. Activate the system, the platform the vehicles are parked on begins lifting diagonally uphill ward.

One of the entrances/exits of a parking structure closes itself off to keeps other from entering and exiting from that section as the floor opens outward into two halves. The layer under it opens up moving to the sides to reveal the tunnel's path. Once the platform reached the top and locked into place, both parties raced out of the parking structure with the Hunter following behind the Chaser.

Meanwhile

From outside on the streets, Turner quickly stops the jeep when panicking citizens began running in the opposite direction past them. He and Derpy looked on in confusion as people either ran or drove past them, along with some others both ahead and behind them turning to rush to safety. Though this resulted in a few of the cars crashing into each other.

Derpy looked worried at the scene. "That's dangerous. Why is everyone running?"

"I'm sure that's the cause to all of this." Following where he's pointing towards, she sees ice beginning to stick out from over some buildings a couple streets down from them. "My certain that's where Reiji is at."

Back inside the gym, Reiji continues running and jumping from wall to wall to avoid the ice slashes. "Ugh?!" Though he slips when landing from his next jump. Reiji finds just about the whole room has been frozen.

(Devil Steam!) The blade had announced after turning the nozzle twice and launching a steam slash towards the teen. Using the ice to his advantage, Reiji uses a piece of that's sticking out to thrust himself out of the path of the slash. Faust sends another slash towards the other side of a desk that Reiji slid behind. But the attack misses when the teen doesn't come out the other side. Faust quickly looks back to see him come flipping over the desk. Landing on the other side of the desk, Reiji uses it to jump, thrusting himself towards Faust with the energy claws at the ready.

Faust reacts quickly and swings the Steam Blade at the teen at last moment. Having swung the right claw, Reiji winces in pain as the blade shatters the claw and leaves a long cut along his right arm and leg. He lands rolling across the floor behind the villain until his back hits the wall. "Er!" Faust chuckles after turning to face the teen and finds him trying to stand on his hurt leg.

"Seems this is where the game ends." (Electric Steam!)

Right as he was launching the electrical slash, the Millennia Cruser comes busting through the wall at the back of the building. It transforms into a silver and black Humvee with pink lining along the doors with Zi-O's mark and the kanji saying 'Millennia Cruser' on the front and back bumpers. Now having a roof, a tire case having the same colors is mounted on the top.

Stopping in front of Reiji, the pink on the Cruser lights up, creating a domed barrier that shields them from the slash. "What?" While Faust was surprised, the tire case opens in half, becoming a sentry gun with a long and short clock arm looking cannon barrels extending out.

"Ciao." Turner fires a shock waves blast that sends the villain slamming into the wall.

"Reiji!" Derpy rushes off the jeep to run to her friend's side. "Are you okay? Those cuts look bad."

With a grin he holds up his left claw. "I'm fine. You should see how the other guy is going to be." in his claw are eight Core Medals. The medals are cheetah, lion, mantis, turtle, an orange cobra, blue orca, sky blue hermit crab and salmon pink crab. "Seems turtle wanted to return."

Faust slowly stands with a smile before holding up both his hands which both held two of Fullbottles, Core Medals, and Progrisekeys. In his left are a whale set of items while shark items were in his right. "If you want your items, then allow me to help further it along." After tossing the items upward, he brings out two stones. "Core phase begin."

Turner's eyes go wide. "Hurry and get in you two." He shouted looking to his friends while getting off the jeep, knowing what's coming next.

Not wasting any time, he rushed over to help Derpy bring Reiji into the backseat along with her and then quickly getting back into the driver's seat. While the two sets of items are absorbed into the orbs, the Millennia smashed its way out through the front and out into the now empty street, driving off at top speed.

Faust leave one orb floating inside the building while tossing the other into the street where it sank through the ground. The whole building crumbles being pulled into the orb along with everything inside. While a huge sinkhole formed from the second orb's suction. The two continued until two huge cocoons were formed.

"If you want a real challenge OOO, then let me provide one for you." Bringing out the gun device, he attaches an Astro Switch with the number 21 onto the bottom of the handle. (Stealth On!) The gun announces in a distorted robotic voice after he twist the top and then inserts two playing cards into the side. (Lizard Undead! Jaguar Undead! Corruption!!) "Distortion summons." Firing the shot upward, it splits into two before coming back down and landing in front of him.

While one formed into the kaiju Undead Lizard, the other forms into a jaguar type of Undead with silver armor on its upper body and leather covering mostly the lower. A few skull heads in its spots could be seen. A black claw blade weapon is attached to the left hand.

"And since you've already taken so many prizes, we can add more to the table." With a wicked smile, Faust brings out a cyan jet Fullbottle and a transparent yellow Astro Switch with the number '10' on it. He phases the switch into Jaguar, causing sparks of electricity to spark around it before changing the silver of its armor into golden yellow color, and the bottle into Lizard which creates a jet armor around its chest and back. "Now here's how the game works you two. While Nameless Whale keeps the other Riders busy, you two will be keeping OOO and both Zi-Os away from Nameless Shark while it tries to end the game for OOO." He explained as both cocoons broke apart to reveal both Nameless kaijus.

Emerging as a transparent dark cyan mechanical shark, with bits and pieces of what was the gym sticking out from the body, navy tooth shaped fins and tail, and razor-sharp teeth looking like they're made of ice. A transparent navy-blue mechanical whale, with many sewer pipes sticking out from its face, raised its head out the hole. Most of its body has pieces of the asphalt sticking out with some pipes and having a large tail made of ice.

Faust turns to Shark while making a picture of Wallflower appear. "This will be OOO's loss. Now go rip her to bits." Not wasting anytime, Shark dives into the street and then races off with its top fin dragging through the street. The two Undead follow the Nameless before turning invisible. "Now for our fun." Faust jumps onto the remaining Nameless before it begins advancing forward as if the street and ground is made of water.

"I'm dying to see the outcome of today's game." The villain spoke to himself after laughing in a psychotic manner.

Not Far Off

The Millennia was rushing down empty streets from Turner trying to rush away from what he knew would soon emerge from the area. He takes a quick peek at his left side mirror to see if anything is coming after them but finds nothing out of the ordinary.

"Seems like we're in the clear for now. Is everyone alright back there?" Turner asked taking a quick glance at the rearview mirror before focusing back on the road.

Reiji hissed as Derpy finishes tying a bandage around his arm. "Sorry! I didn't mean to make it too tight."

"No. You did a good job." He reassured her with a warm smile. "Trust me, you did a whole lot better job than I did when I treated someone's injuries."

"You've bandaged someone before? Who? Was it a friend?" She asked as Reiji winces from having adjusted the knot of the bandage on his leg.

He smiles softly at his arm's bandage. "Nope. It just reminds me of a lady I misjudged." "A lady?" He looked up to Derpy. "Yup. Giulia was her name." The memory began playing as he remembered. "I met her when my parents took me along with them to a charity event in Florence, Italy when I was 10 years old. At that age, I really liked to sneak off and explore around cities or towns I visited. But this time was different. I was enjoying the sights until a lady bumped into me. I apologized but then found her waving my wallet at me and had me chase her around the city for a while until she led me to a police station. She had tricked me into getting caught and left there to be picked up by my dad's personal guards. Personally, I was upset from her having ruined my fun."

"Why would she had gone through all that trouble?" "I didn't find that out until later. I just watched from the window as the lady left but then was surprised by some guy having jumped out from an ally and held her from behind. The guy forced her into a van that drove up next to them and left with her." "What?!" "Yeah, I know. I was just as shocked as you, Derpy. I was about to quickly tell someone until my dad's head guard, Vincent an ex special forces leader, showed up with some others. He told me about how upset my parents were that I snuck off and was ordered to take me back. I quickly told him about all that happened and what I just saw and begged him so much to help her. It took a moment, but I convinced him. He had two of his men take me back while he and the rest went after the van."

"What happened then? Were they able to find the van?" She asked worried about what happened.

"Well, after getting an hours' worth of lecturing from my mom, I didn't hear anything back from Vincent until the next morning when my dad receives a call saying he was at the hospital. We rushed over finding Vincent and his group a little beaten up but mostly fine outside of the room Giulia was resting in. Vincent informed my parents what had happened. From what he found out; Giulia had led me to the police station because a dangerous was after me to hold for ransom and didn't want to give away that she was helping me out so they wouldn't act sooner. But after they figured out what she had done, they took her under their boss's orders to punish her. They had, beaten, broken a few of her bones and the boss even chopped off her right hand."

Derpy had a horrified face. "That's horrible."

Reiji nods agreeing. "But before they could kill her, Vincent and his men stormed the building with some police officers and fought killing their way to Giulia. Once the group had been taken down, Vincent rushed Giulia over to the hospital where she was treated after they gotten her out of critical condition. My parents thanked her over and over once she woke up and had even already paid for her medical bill. Though when they heard she was going to have a hard life with her condition, they offered for her to come back home with us and work in the mansion." "Wait, she works for your family?" He nods at his surprised friend. "Yup. She had been assigned to watch over me when I helped out at events."

"Then what about the bandage reminds of you of that time?" Turner asked looking back to them from the rearview mirror for a second.

"That's because after 5 years, Vincent showed up while she was patching me up and proposed to her." Derpy gasped at the news. "He did?" "Yup. The two had apparently been dating for a long while and he decided to ask the question right then and there. Bandages have always reminded me of that great memory since then."

"MY LORDS!!" The two in the back get startled by the sudden shout and find Wiz climbing out of Derpy's backpack with a glowing watch. They watched as the watch changes into a green Ridewatch with a yellow ring and part of a red face in the middle. Like Zi-O's watch, the top inside has OOO's Tatoba mark and the year 2010 on the bottom.

Watching her take ahold of the watch, Reiji looks as Derpy turns the front of the watch to reveal OOO's face. "The OOO Ridewatch. Wait, does that mean..." He quickly looks into his jacket in search for his Driver and lets out a sigh of relief when he finds it. "Good. I thought that meant my powers were gone. Hm?" Hearing his phone ring, Reiji pulls it out of his pocket. "It's Wallflower."

A Few Seconds Before

Wallflower is standing in one of the aisles of the hardware store. She had arrived a few minutes ago and began her shopping. Now she was standing in front of a section with different flower seed packets. A basket hung from one of her arms with a trowel, digging fork, gloves, and pruners in it.

Being in the middle of a hard decision, Wallflower picks up two packs from the rack. In one hand was a pack of cosmos and in the other is celosia seeds packet. She looked back and forth between the two before taking a quick look at the other seeds and then focusing back on the two.

She sighs setting the packets back. "What could be taking Reiji so long? I hope nothing bad has happened to him. Maybe I should call him." Taking out her phone and she goes to Reiji in her contacts.

Right as she pressed the call button, a loud crash sound startled her along with other customers. "CYAAAHHHHH!!" The scream of people could be heard at the front of the store. Hearing this made Wallflower both frightened and unsettling just from the thought of what's most likely causing it. Her fears are answered when she takes a peek out of the aisle, only for Nameless Shark to burst out of the ground next to her and bites down onto one of the shelves in the aisle across from hers.

"Aaahhhhh!!"

Back on the Other End

[Aaahhhhh!!] Wallflower's scream was heard a second after Reiji answered his phone. "Wallflower? Wallflower!?" [~CLICK~] The call cut off with only the sound of some creature.

"What could've happened? Wha... Reiji!" After seeing her friend put his Driver on, Derpy tries stopping him from setting the medals into his belt. "No! You shouldn't go. You can't fight well with how your arm and leg are."

"That doesn't matter. There's no time to think. Wallflower needs my help." Setting the last medal, he runs the scanner over them.

(Taka!Pegasus!Ari!) Sensing OOO's wings, the Millenia opens its roof to allow the Rider to jump out and fly off. "OOO, WAIT!" He could hear Derpy shout out to him but ignores it as he flies towards the hardware store.

"Hold on, Wallflower. I'm on my way."

The Dragons Cavern

Like Sunset, Drago was in the middle of bring a customer their order. It was right then that his phone's alarm goes off.

"Sorry, Sunset. But I have to leave the rest to you."

"What?! Hold on, Drago." She turns to face him as he ran past her. "You can't be serious. How am I supposed to do this on my own?"

Her words didn't seem to reach from how he just dashes through the library and towards the garage. There, Spike, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle were finishing off the cleaning of the weapons while Scootaloo and Rumble still worked on making the weapon's adjustments.

"Man, being a Rider must be so awesome if you get to use cool stuff like these." Scootaloo spoke out loud, picking up the weapon.

"Hey!" Rumble quickly stops her from swinging it around. "Watch it, Scoots. We don't want it going off like the gun. I'm sure you'd hate being left out the fun too if Connor kicked us out." He scolded while forcing her to put it back down.

Drago comes rushing into the room right then, startling them. "Spike, there's trouble. We need to go." He takes a look around before focusing back on his brother. "Where's Connor? Wasn't he with all you?"

"He left after going to the school to meet up with Rainbow Dash." Scootaloo answered,

"Hey guys. What are you all up to?" Surprised by the known voice, everyone looks back to the door and are shocked to find Rainbow Dash standing there. She goes from smiling to being confused because of the looks they were giving her. "What's up? Did I say something weird?"

"If she's here, then who did Connor go meet?" Spike questioned.

Setting his Driver on, Drago brings out the tyranno Alpha Core. "We'll have to worry about that later. Right now, we're needed out there." (Alpha Tyranno!) His brother nods in understanding. (Driver on, Please!) Spike pushes the visor down on the Flame ring.

(Infusion!/Shabadoobi, Touch Henshin! Shabadoobi, Touch Henshin!) "Henshin!" (Core Blaze! Slam! Stomp! Roar! Alpha Tyranno!/Flame, Please! Hi-Hi, Hi-Hi-Hi!) With obsidian covering Drago and a spell circle passing through Spike, the two transform into Jurassic and Wizard.

"Let's go." Jurassic order.

The two climbed onto their motorcycles, transforming them into their Ride Machine forms. Wizard's bike, the Machinewinger, resembles a Honda CRF250R mostly being silver with gold on the sides and back wheel. A red magic stone in the front is shaped the same his helmet.

"See you guys later." Wizard said giving his friends a thumbs up. "Go get'em, you two!/Good luck!/Come back safe!/Better not get your asses kicked." He and Jurassic heard as they drove out of the garage.

"Can someone please fill me in on what's going on?" Rainbow shouted out as the map of Equestria back in the library lights up but goes unnoticed by everyone because of the sunlight.

Meanwhile

Connor comes to a stop, parking within a construction site. He had came here once before with Rainbow and Discord in search for the spot Rumble found the Fullbottles at. The building now seemed close to being completed before the inside could be started on.

He had done research on the place and found the building to be a factory owned by a man named Filthy Rich. Walking through the building, he found it strange there weren't any signs of workers of the site but figured it must be the work of the person who sent him the message.

"Are you planning to show yourself?" He shouted from the middle of the building. "Or are you going to waste my time? You already caught my attention with that message of yours. Especially from that hidden message from within the message's data."

Remembering back to the message, he had opened it to find an image of their school, Canterlot High. It'd look like a regular picture to anyone normal. But for someone like him, he could see something strange within the image. Rapidly typing and breaking down the image's data, he finds the shape of his rabbit and tank pins.

"You and I both know there's no point in hiding yourself. Come out before I drag you out!! Show yourself, Clara!!"

"Be careful what you wish for, Connor." A girl's voice could be heard from all around.

The Smashes, Burn and Needle, materialized a few feet in front of him. Connor immediately jumps and rolls to his right to avoid the fire and needles shot towards him. He set his belt while rolling and brings out the turtle and vacuum Fullbottles. (Turtle!Soujiki! Are you ready?) The constructs close to transform Connor into Build. One side was vacuum while on rabbit's side was a green armor with a turtle skin design on the chest, a shell on the on the right shoulder, and the visor molded as a turtle swimming diagonally upward.

(Vortex Saber!) Taking ahold of the weapon, Build dashes towards the two kaiju. He used the saber to knock the needles away while also using vacuum to suck up the fire Burn shoots at him with. He jousts the vacuum arm into Burnt's chest causing the Smash to stumble back. Needle takes a swing at him but Build first ducks under the swing and then slams the shoulder shell into it. He used the opportunity to hit Needle with an upward slash, sending the Smash falling on to its back with sparks.

Burn shoots fireballs from its cannons at the Rider who just uses his vacuum arms to suck them up. While still using the vacuum, Build tosses his weapon up to bring out ninja, lion and lock Fullbottles out, then holds out only the last two to slide into his weapon that switched to gun mode while coming back down. (Lion!Lock! Cross Combo!) Shot towards Burn, the shot changes into an energy lion head shaped lock that bites down on the Smash and held it in place.

(Ninja!) As Needle stood up, Build turned the switch on the trash converter shoulder to have it release the fire it had collected and holds up his weapon in sword mode for the flames to spiral along with it. (Solo Attack!) The Smash fires needles at the same time Build's slash launches flame covered energy shuriken. The Rider's attack easily broke through the needles. Needle wanted to avoid them but the shuriken curve around, coming at it from all directions and each hit their mark.

(Lion! Best Match! Are you Ready?) "Build up." (Tategamicyclone!LionCleaner!Yeah!) Having switched bottles, the belt announced in a techno rock music jingle as the construct closes to change turtle into a marigold armor with his hand coming out a lion head on the wrist, a tail shoulder pad and a visor having a lion face mold. Build doesn't waist any time activating the finisher as Burn breaks free. (Ready? Go! VortexFinish!Yeah!) He first uses the vacuum arm to pull the smash closer to him. The Smash tries to resist the suction and shoots fire at the Rider but to avail on both ends. Build readies his other arm that builds up with yellow energy and then fires a lion head from it. Burn gets dragged by the attack until exploding the moment it gets rammed into a wall.

"What's the matter, "Build"? You aren't even talking at all. Not even the little amount you usually speak." The voice spoke out to him while he pulls the tail from his shoulder. "Are you really so upset to hear my voice? Even considering how much history we have?" Now armed with a tail whip, Build just ignores her as he uses it to hit Needle from a distance a few times. He has the whip wrap around the Smash's leg before pulling it back, tripping it onto its back.

The two bottles are removed from the belt to switch out with two others. (Manticore!Gashapon! Best Match! Are you ready?) "Build up." (The capsuled filled mystic beast!Mantipon!Yeah!/Manti-staff!) Build takes ahold of the weapon, charging at Needle.

Build runs his way through needle that are shot at him. (Capsule Charge!) Having inserted tank while the dial is on blue, he jabs Needle with the staff. (Manti-Mix!) A tank barrel lifts it up before a bull head is shot out and brings the Smash crashing through the floor of the second level and landing on its back. Build comes jumping through the hole after the Smash. Landing a few feet from the kaiju, he runs up to Needle while inserting firetruck with the weapon's dial on green. (Capsule Charge!) Needle stands firing its needles at the Rider, who spins his staff to knock them away as the manticore wings enlarged with fire and water.

(Manti-Mix!) "Why won't you talk to me, Connor? I may not be showing myself, but I can hear you well despite that." Build slashed the Smash as she spoke to him. He side kicks the kaiju on the last slash, sending it rolling across the ground. "What happened between us? We used to be so close." Build turned the crank while continuing to ignore her. (Ready? Go! VortexFinish!Yeah!) Needle gets hit by multiple different colored capsules. Four open up to reveal four pieces that combine into a manticore. The mythical beast tackles the Smash through the floor and into the ground where it explodes.

"Well done. I'm sure even Daichi would've agreed."

At the mention of the name, his fists tighten. "Enough of this game, Clara. I know you have a reason for calling me here. So, what is it?"

"Seems someone doesn't want to catch up. But you are right. I just wanted to see the difference between two things and to bring about a reunion."

Build rage was about to burst until something comes bursting from underneath him. "Uh?!" He is brought dropping back down to the first floor. The Rider only searches around for his enemy only for a moment before setting his eyes on it. "It can't be?"

Standing a few feet away from him is someone or something that looks like a Smash with a Rider-like body. They were covered in a bulky armor with thruster vents all around their black and metallic silver body, having a hammer right and a single 'V' shaped visor with a red glowing eye in the center. The left wrist has what looks like a silver Fullbottle with the same-colored image of a hammer and transparent purple around it.

"Indeed. Your discarded mechanical child has returned. Though you can see I made some changes. It's now an Eon Smash. Or in this case, Hammer Eon."

Steam comes out Hammer's vents the moment it slammed its hammer into its open palm.

"We already saw the strength of two ordinary Smash. Now to see what an Eon Smash is capable of. So...Ready..." Not having a choice but to fight, Build charges at Hammer the moment it did the same. "Fight!"

At the same Time

Completely full of fear, Wallflower peeks out from an aisle she's in. "Reiji, where are you?" She quietly whispered while clenching her broken cell phone. Her left sleeve is ripped off with a cut near her shoulder. "Please, help me. Ah!"

She quickly retracted her head back as Nameless Shark's fin was slowly passed, dragging through the ground. Her heart feels as if it freezes when the fin stops in its tracks. Wallflower keeps completely still as the fin remains motionless for what seems like hours to her but to her relief, it continues on its way down the store.

Letting out a sigh of relief, she peeks back out to see where it's going but she becomes frightened again when she finds the fin gone. "Wha...Where'd it-" She looks around in a panic until her eyes focused behind herself. "CYAH!!" Wallflower screamed finding the fin coming towards her from behind until the Nameless jumps, bursting out of the ground at her. She manages to jump out of the aisle and out of the way of Shark's jaws biting into the ground where she had just stood. Wallflower runs off and out of the store with Nameless Shark chasing after her. "Reiji!" She screamed out for help as she runs for her life.

"Wallflower?" Having heard her voice as he was closing in on the store, OOO uses hawk's ability to look down in search of the source of the scream. He immediately spots Wallflower running for her life with the Nameless on her tail. "Wallflower!Wha?" He was about to rush diving down to save her but is late in noticing the sounds of thrusters which results in him getting slashed across the chest.

After fixing his positioning in the sky, he searches around for what just attacked. He searches around until looking straight up where Lizard appears and tackles him all the way down into the street. "Er...Huh? Ugh!" The moment he stood up, something invisible comes speeding in, striking OOO with multiple hits from different sides and angels before Jaguar appears with one last hit that sends the Rider sliding down the street.

Lizard Undead lands on top of OOO about to jab its blade into him. As it brought its blade down, the Undead gets blasted off him. The Millenia comes to a stop behind OOO with both Zi-Os rushing over to his side.

"OOO, are you okay?" Derpy asked as they helped their friend to his feet. Turner then says, "You really shouldn't have gone off alone."

"Sorry about that. But Wallflower is in trouble." He gave a small explanation while switching his three medals. "I'm sorry but, I'm going to leave Lizard to both of you."

"Wait, OOO." (Komori!Kami!Cheetah!) The moment his form changed, OOO dashes off at high speed before Turner could stop him. Jaguar chases after him while turning invisible. "Damn it." The two Zi-Os focus on Lizard after stands. "Guess we have no choice. Are you ready?" He asked Derpy while they kept their sights on the Undead.

(Zikan Girade! Ken!) (Zikan Zepter!) "Ready!" She responded after their weapons are summoned.

Elsewhere

"Now where could flood patrol be when you need them."

A sarcastic Faust shouted out as Nameless Whale was moving down the streets. The Nameless shot out high-pressured streams of water from the pipes sticking out from its body. Each stream smashing its way through walls, poles and cars easily.

People who saw the explosions and heard the sounds of destruction from the distance, all began running away with screams of terror. Those that were in the middle of the destruction either tried running away or took cover where they could, hoping what they hid behind would be enough to protect them.

"Drink up, people. There's plenty for everyone. Hm?" Faust shields himself as shots of energy and laser hit Whale causing it to halt its attack. Looking ahead, he spots Elanor and her team drive to a stop a few feet away. "Oh, now this should be interesting. What can I do for you, officers?" He shouted before jumping down to face the three upon seeing them get off their vehicles.

"We're the Everfree Guardians." Elanor holds out a badge with their emblem on it. "By order of the city and the law, Faust, you are hereby ordered to surrender and turn yourself in."

"And if I refuse?" He questioned tapping his chin with grin. The Everfree Guardians respond by putting on their Drivers, along with Elanor putting on the belt that was being analyzed before and says, "Or we'll take you down by force." Faust holds out his arms open to them. He then snaps his fingers making Riotoozes, Humagearas, and Yummies appear. "Then by all means, be my guest."

While Shining and Autumn brought out their items, their captain also brings out the knuckle that was on the screen and uses the palm of her left hand to press the front to make an activation noise and then says in a robotic voice, (READY!) "Henshin." She then slides the knuckle into the empty half of the belt. (FIST ON!) An energy cross forms before launching forward to make the image of the suit and a sun-like mark in front of it before moving back to transform her into Kamen Rider IXA. Her suit is mostly white and black with silver around the chest and legs. The top of the gold Cross Shield with a black long side 'V' visor and head have blue at the top.

(PALADIN!) (Hunt! Authorize! Kamen Rider! Kamen Rider!) "Henshin." (PALADIN!) (Shotrise!) Shining and Autumn transform into Paladin and Valkyrie. Bringing out their weapons, the two follow IXA in charging forward into the group of grunts. Faust just grinned as he watched the Guardians battle with the grunts.

"Well officers, I'll leave you to entertain yourselves. I have my own enjoyment to resume." "I don't know about you, but I prefer my entertainment to be a bit more chaotic." Turning, Faust is surprised by Decade becoming visible and punches him across the face. "Ugh. What? Decade?" "And" He stops pointing to Faust's left. (Rising Impact!) He turns guarding with his arms crossed as Zero-One's kick lands and sends him flying through a buildings wall. "You should've known there'd be more than one of us."

"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!" Coming out of the hole, Faust heard finding Den-O running up from his right. The villain easily avoids the Rider's wild swings by mostly moving side to side, ducking under some swings, and jumping back. "Hold still you damn bastard."

Faust dusts himself off while avoiding the swings. "And why would I do that when I have other things to do." He said while backing up against a wall. "Until next time, Riders. Ciao." As Den-O was about to get him, the villain sinked into his own shadow.

"Damn that bastard! He got away." The Rider spoke out in frustration.

Whale lets out a cry before charging forward. The three Rider move out of its path before the huge whale resumed its rampage. "Forget about him. You two go after the Nameless. I'll stick here to help them with the grunts." He ends pointing towards the Guardians.

"Yeah, I'd rather not deal with them. Good luck with that." With a snap of his finger, Decade has his silver veil bring out his and Den-O's Ride Machine.

"Let's get to hunting that overgrown tuna." 'If it's fishing, then I'm up.' "What? No, Kame! I was here first." 'I think I should be the one. Strength for strength./Please don't fight, guys.' Den-O had been saying while he struggled with his hands. His left hand slowly pressed the blue button and his right then swiped the pass. (Rod Form!) "Damn it!" Being forced to switch, Den-O's visor disappeared with the armor flying of and rearranging into Rod form as the turtle changed into the visor. "Now to see what Denrailer will give me."

Denrailer's front disappears with the bike's armor flying off. With a hop, the wheels split down the middle and unfolded to the sides before rotating inward, changing the Ride Machine into a hover bike. With the axe folding out, the four armor pieces rotate around before reconnecting back onto the wheels. The last two unfold before connecting to the sides of the seat with the top of all six pieces showing blue with orange linings and ends with the face of the bike gaining a piece that matches Rod's visor.

Den-O assembles his weapon into a rod. "What are you waiting for, Decade? Let's go."

"Just try to keep up." Den-O jumps onto his now hover board/bike as Decade mounted his bike. Reving the engine, the two race after the Nameless.

Zero-One turned to the Guardian's battle. "So, they had IXA's belt too. Just where is that group getting these belts." He brings out the lion key. "This will be the best way to mow them down." (Burst! Authorize! Progrise!) With a huge cybernetic magenta lion lands, roaring in front of him before splitting into six pieces. Zero-One's face split in half with the armor on the legs moving to the side, and the upper part of the chest moving to the shoulders while the lower moved to sides of his waist. (Fierce bombing animal! Dynamaiting Lion! A beautiful explosive force like fireworks.) Changing into magenta armor on the now open spaces, his chest and shoulder armor were shaped like a lion's mane with the front of his helmet resembling a lion's. The visor's eyes were now light green with the tips of his fingers having become pointed.

The grunts take notice of him because of the transformation and make a dash for him. Zero-One just walks towards the charging enemies. Riotooze him tries taking a swipe at him, but he easily avoids it by leaning his head the side and counters thrusting a fist into its chest that sends the flying back when the fist creates an explosion.

With each hit creating an explosion, Zero-One avoids and guards against the grunts while countering with his own hits. Moving past a Yummy's swipe, the Rider elbows its back before then thrusting his fist straight through a Humagear's chest. He catches and holds onto a Riotooze's arm, he follows with kneeing a Yummy and then sidekicks another Riotooze before flipping the grunt onto the ground and stomping it.

"What?" Paladin spots Zero-One as the Rider parries two grunt hits and thrusts his fist into their chest. "A Rider." The Guardian battles his way through the grunts to reach Zero-One and takes a swing at him, but he reacts in time to block by summoning his sword.

"What are you doing?" Shoving him back, the two slashed down a few grunts before facing back to each other. "This is no time to be fighting each other."

"That's what you think, Rider. You Riders won't be getting away this time." Both run at each other and began clashing blades until trying to push each other on the last strike. "You'll be brought in to be judged for crimes, vigilante."

Zero-One and Paladin both back off to deal with grunts closing in around them before facing towards each other again. "Have it your way then." The two continued battling each other while also fighting off grunts when they tried attacking them.

"Shouldn't we help him?" Valkyrie questioned to IXA while looking at the two fighting.

"It's fine. Our main priority is neutralizing all hostiles before they cause any harm to citizens or the area." She puts a Riotooze into an armlock before swinging a kick at a grunt both in front and behind her and then flips the Riotooze she had in a lock over herself. "He seems to be doing just that. Just stay focused." IXA reels her fist back before thrusting it into a Yummy's chest, sending it flying into a group of grunts. (Alpha Spino!) "Huh?"

On the opposite side of the street, they see Jurassic rushing in battle in his spino form, using his sword to deflect bullets and blasts of energy being shot at him by the Humagears and Riotoozes. He begins slashing them down the moment he reached them.

"I have a great way to make short of you all." Cutting down two Riotooze, Jurassic banishes his weapon and brings out his phone. (Wave!) Knocking over in coming grunts, he holds the three new Primal Cores under the phone, gaining the codes '729, 354, and 160' and dials them in. (Therizinosaur. Dimetrodon. Stegosaurus.) With lines of light going into the ground, armaments of said dinosaurs burst from the ground and began attacking the grunts until he pressed the phone's trigger. (Dial in! Core Armament! Therizino Claw! Dimetro Saw! Stego Greave!)

Therizino separated in two with the upper half attaching onto the left shoulder and the tail end onto the arm. The tail opens into three bladed claw. Dimetro also splits in half, which reveals the fin on its back to be a saw. The tail end attaches onto the right shoulder while the saw unfolds to the front of the face before connecting to the arm. Stego splits down the middle, the head and tail folding to the sides before attaching onto the legs with the spine plates pointing upward at the front of the legs.

"Now how many little bits can I cut you all into?" Jurassic shouts as he ran into the grunts. The claw and saw blade cleanly cut through them, such as the claw ripping a Humagear apart and the saw blade slicing a Riotooze down the middle. When he swung kicks, an energy sansetukon formed on the side, crushing into the grunts they slammed into.

"So, that's Jurassic." IXA ducks under a Riotooze's swing and then side kicks it.

Up Ahead

Not far behind Nameless Whale, Decade and Den-O were maneuvering around, over, and/or through the kaiju's destruction.

"This kaiju must've never heard of settlety." Den-O spoke over to Decade while maneuvering past the streams of water.

"I'm pretty sure it doesn't know much of anything." He swerves avoiding the water streams and chunks of the building. "Now the only question is how to deal with this guy."

"Den-O! Decade!" They look behind to find Wizard racing up to their side. "Having trouble dealing with this guy?"

Decade smirks under his helmet. "Not anymore." Opening his belt, he reaches into his Booker and brings out a card with having the image of Wizard and of a silver dragon, that he then tosses into the belt. (Final Form Ride.)

He drives up next to his little brother. "Decade, what are you-" (W-W-Wizard!) Placing his hand on Wizard's head, Decade shoves it back, causing him to fly off his bike and transform into Wizard's Phantom dragon, the Wizardragon.

"Let's let him have it, little brother." Decade jumps onto Wizard's back with their bikes teleporting away.

Wizard roars flying towards the Nameless with Den-O following behind them. Some water streams hit but are ineffective against his tough skin. (Attack Ride. Blast!) Decade shoots multiple shots at Whale as his brother breathed fire up along its back. Den-O moves along the kaiju's left side with his Ride Machine firing cannon shots from the parts on the side of the seat and laser stream from the tips of the front blades.

Whale lets out a cry, ceasing its attacks to jump and dive down into the ground. "No you don't." With his rod's tip changing into a hook, Den-O launches the hook and has it wrap, hooking onto the Nameless's tail as it dove into the ground like water. "Now to reel him- Woah!" He begins to be dragged through the street while in the air.

"And the chase resumes." Decade held on as Wizard flies after them.

Back With OOO

The Rider was still chasing after Wallflower and Nameless Shark. He followed along the trail Shark left behind. Though every time he felt he was getting close, a nuisance kept getting in his way.

"Uh?" OOO stops in his tracks. With bat's ability, he's able to tell from what direction the Undead is coming from and uses the shell guards on his arms to block the kaiju's attack before he runs past it to continue after Wallflower.

"I need to do something about about this guy before it's too late to save Wallflower." He thinks for a second. "I've got it."

He stops to switch out the middle medal. (Komori!Unagi!Cheetah!) The middle changed into a blue coiled eel with the lining on the shoulder pad and back hand being blue, while the arm has a white volt shaped line. Attached from the shoulders to his wrists is a white whips.

OOO readied himself as he sensed Jaguar approaching. "Now!" Stepping to the side to have Jaguar dash forward past him. Unattaching the whips from his shoulders, OOO swings having them wrap around the Undead and begins electrocuting it. "Now to- Wha?" He thought he'd get a chance to run ahead but to his surprise, Jaguar seemed to be absorbing the electricity.

Breaking free from the whip's grasps, the Undead transfers the power to its claw. It then runs up to OOO and swipes its claw across his chest causing sparks to fly off him. "Gah!" The Undead continues its assault after OOO stood back up by with multiple swipes across the chest with each hit making him take steps back. Jaguar then passes him slashing its claw across his chest and then jabbed its claw into him the moment they turned to face each other sending him falling onto his back a couple feet away.

"Er....Ugh!" He tried to stand but fell onto one knee, having felt a sting from his right leg. Seeing an opening, Jaguar dashes ramming into him, dragging the Rider through a wall.

While this was happening, Shark was still smashing its way through anything in its way of chasing after Wallflower and biting random objects when it jumped out of the ground after her. Everyone ran in the opposite direction of where the Nameless is chasing after her.

"Ahhhh!" She screamed from Shark having tried jumped out and comes chomping down on a truck next to her. "What do you want? Why are you only coming after me?" She questioned the kaiju. "What did I ever do to you? Ugh!" The Nameless misses her once again, smashing into the ground next to her but its tail manages to hit her to the side, slamming into a car and falls unconscious.

A couple feet, OOO comes breaking out of a building with Jaguar still dragging him along. The Undead dragged him across the street and slams his back against the wall of a bowling alley with its claw weapon pressed against him. Sparks of electricity came off the claw before it began electrocuting the Rider.

"Gaaahhhh!!" OOO screamed out. While still being shocked, he catches a glimpse of the Nameless's tail. He manages to turn his head its way to see Shark half ways out of the ground as it moved slowly towards "Wallflower..." Quick flashbacks of his first-time meeting Giulia went through his mind. "I'm not... I'm not the same powerless child I used to be." OOO spoke out while getting a grip on Jaguar's claw and managing to push it a bit off.

"I won't ever allow those close to me to ever be" He pauses taking a deep breath while still being electrocuted. "put in harms wayAGAIN!!" OOO lets out a sonic screech at the end. Jaguar backs away before dropping to the floor covering its ears. Now having the chance, he quickly takes out the bat and eel medals to replace them with lion and tiger, and runs the scanner over them as Shark dives into the ground and bursts out into the sky.

(Lion! Tora! Cheetah! La-ta La-ta, La-tora-tar!) Was announced with a roar sound as OOO's arms changed to tiger and the top of the images on the chest changed to the image of the lion medal. His helmet now had a gold lion mane shape going around the face, whisker lines on the sides of the mouth, and the color of the visor eyes was now light blue. "RAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!" OOO roared out as Jaguar stood up. His helmet emits an infrared light that not only blinds the two kaiju, but also does burning damage on them. Shark misses Wallflower from the light, lands crushing the car she had been slammed into.

In high speed, OOO dashes to Wallflower, picks her up, and runs off with her. With the Toraclaws folding out, he claws the back of the Undead as it was still blinded, sending it rolling to the side. He kept running until getting a good distance away from them, he sets her down on a bench.

"Mmm.... Hm? Kamen Rider? Uh!" Shooting to her feet, Wallflower looks around in a panic expecting the Nameless to be around but finds no signs of it. She was also surprised to find herself now in a park. "What happened? Where's the kaiju?"

"It's alright, Wallflower. You'll be safe here." He has her sit back down on the bench while kneeling down.

"You... You know me?" He smiles under his helmet, seeing her try to figure out how he'd know about her or even remembers her.

OOO holds up a peace sign. "Hey, I did promise I'd rush back, didn't I?" He holds in a laugh seeing her shocked expression. "Rei-" "We can about this later. I have two problems to go take care of."

He doesn't give her a chance to respond as he stood to give her a small salute while walking backwards and then turns running off at high speed. Watching him disappear in the distance, she says "Be careful." softly.

OOO closed in back on the scene as the two kaiju begin to recover. Not given time to react, Shark's lower jaw gets flip kicked by the Rider who then rapidly kicks against the Nameless's underbelly without touching the ground as it fell back and ends with one last flip that then follows with him bringing down both his claws crossing against its belly.

"Next up." OOO said turning to face Jaguar before the two run at each other. They run back and forth colliding each time they met. In each collision, sparks would fly off Jaguar when the Undead would try swiping at the Rider, only for OOO to dodge and counter with his own claw blades. The clashing ends when they run up buildings that are on opposite sides of the street and then leap towards each other. OOO lands the hit with sparks flying off Jaguar and it landing flat on its back while he slid to a stop.

"Uh!" About to charge towards Jaguar again, OOO jumps to the side in time to avoid Shark's bite, which leads to it crashing into its fellow kaiju. "HAAAA!!" Seeing the chance, OOO hits them with the burning light from his mane.

Back with Zi-O

"Gah!" Turner and Derpy cried out as the invisible Undead kept flying circles around them. Lizard kept hitting them with multiple slashes from different sides and angles with sparks flying off them. The kaiju ends with stopping in the air and fires out two missiles that open, spreading to many smaller missiles. "Ugh/Ah"

The two dropped their weapons before falling flat onto the ground. Lizard chuckled at its work and then began building up energy into its blade to finish them. Though unbeknownst to the Undead, Turner dials in a code into a Primal Cell matching their suit's design and color.

Flashback

Back a few moments while the two Riders were being attacked by Lizard from multiple angles,

'T;This is bad. Unless we do something soon, it'll only be a matter of time till we're finished. But what can we do? He's too quick for either of us to stop or counter.' 'D;I'm scared. We should try to run away. Or we might die. But... Reiji was counting on us to win. I don't want to let everyone down. But he's flying around so fast. There's no way we could catch him.' 'T;My ability can only slow down things around me./D;I can only make myself go fast. I'm not sure if I can do anything else.' The two are backed up into each other. 'T;If only I could just.../D;I just wish my magic could...' Their hands touch one another just as the two shouted in their minds, 'FREEZE HIM PLACE!!'

With their hands glowing, a giant ticking clockface appears hanging high over them covering the whole area around them. The clock's arms stop moving the moment the ticking stops. Everything moving around the two suddenly looks as if it glitches before freezing in place.

"Huh? Why'd it stop attacking- Cyah!" A confused Derpy looked around before getting scared by Lizard. When she turned around, she found the Undead with its blade just about to reach her but to her surprise, the kaiju seemed to be frozen in place while glitching now and then. "What? What happened to him?"

Turner looks over the Undead a bit while Derpy moved away from the blade. "Hm... I haven't the slightest idea." (Maybe I could be of assistance, my lords.) Woz comes hopping out of nowhere, jumping onto Turner's shoulder. "You again. Do you know what's happening...Um...What was your name?"

(I am just your humble aid, Woz, my lords. And yes, I can explain if it is what you wish.) "D;Yes. That would be really helpful, Woz." (As you wish. What we're in now is the combination of both your magics.) "T; Both our magic?" (Yes. Your magic to slow down time and yours to speed up time. Both work by effecting an area to a certain range and on what you target within the zone. Though by combining the two, they strengthen each other to the extent that they'll either freeze time in the zone or accelerate it. Though from what I can see from you two, it seems to drain a large portion of your magic. The zone will probably only last for a few more moments.)

"So, that's how our magic works." He looks back to the Undead. "This is the best chance we have at finishing him."

"Should we really do that while he's frozen?" Derpy questioned sounding unsure. "What do you mean? He was literally beating using around from all sides. This would be the best way to defeat him." "I know. But doesn't this feel like something a villain would do?"

Turner crosses his arms. "Then what would you suggest we do?" He watched as she thought it over real hard, then claps her hands together after a moment.

"I have an idea."

End of Flashback

Lizard dives down towards them having finished charging its attack. The Undead reels back its blade, ready to end them. Becoming visible as it closed in on them, it suddenly feels something is wrong. Lizard takes notice its whole body is moving slowly.

"Now!" (Ju!) His weapon announced after picking up his sword and changing it to gun mode. Turner fires off a couple shots with each hitting their mark on Lizard, causing sparks to fly off the Undead as it slowly fell rolling towards the ground. Moving quickly, Derpy ran past him and up to Lizard, who she jabs her scepter into the kaiju's gut and sends it flying down the street.

"It's Zi-O time!" She called out before she and Turner rushed the Undead. (Ken!) Lizard stands with this earning a slash across the chest with Turner's weapon back in sword mode. Derpy holds her weapon's trigger for a moment before it announces, (Sword Hour!), and energy forms a sword's blade. She moves past Turner to land two slashes on Lizard. The Undead tries to counter but gets its blade stopped by Turner guarding it and Derpy using the chance to thrust her blade at the kaiju making sparks fly off from its gut.

Falling back a couple steps, Lizard launches missiles at towards the two. Derpy reacts quickly by pressing her weapon's trigger 5 times and holds the 6th. (Shield Hour!) She points her scepter forward to create a huge energy clockface that acts as a shield, protecting them from the missiles. Lizard growls about to take back off into the sky.

"Not so fast." Turner uses his magic to slow down the Undead. "Derpy." "On it." Being sped up by her magic, Turner was able to quickly get behind Lizard with his sword saying, (Time Charge: Go-Yon-San-Ni-Ichi-Zero Time!), after pressing the green watch button. (Giri Giri Giri!) He destroys the thrusters on the back and legs with powerful slashes. With Lizard stumbling towards her, Derpy holds her weapon's trigger on the third press. (Axe Hour!) and swats the Undead to the side with an energy axe blade. The kaiju beings turning invisible. Though as it did, the Millenia Cruser comes driving up behind the Undead, stopping a few feet to launch its front bumper that has a pincer claw unfold and grabs ahold of Lizard, keeping it in place.

"Now for the final hour." The Zi-Os declared. (Finish Time!) Their belts announced after pressing the button of their Ridewatches again and push the top of the belt causing it to unlock from place and plays a ticking sound.

Lizard gets surprised as the characters for 'kick' appeared around it. The two jumped up high while rotating the belts back into place. (Time Break!) The characters overlayed moving in a clock motion before shooting past the Undead and into both Riders right feet as they thrust down into a kick. Both kicks land, sending Lizard flipping through the air. The two land a few feet in front of their Ride Machine and watched as the kaiju exploded.

"Yeah!" The Zi-Os cheered high fiving each other with the Fullbottle landing a couple feet ahead of them.

At The Moment

"Decade, would you do something already."

Den-O was still being dragged along by the Nameless. Decade rode on top of Wizard following right next to him. He shot down at Whale along with Den-O shooting beams and Wizard breathing down fire at the liquid surface it created as it moved. But none of their attacks seemed to be hitting their target.

"I suppose you're right. This was getting old." Opening his belt, he takes a card out of the Booker, toss it into the belt and closes it. (Kamen Ride. Wizard! Hi-Hi, Hi-Hi-Hi!) He holds his hand to the side like his brother at the end as the spell circle transformed him into Wizard. "Let's go, little brother."

Wizard roars before diving down towards the ground, following the line. About to reach the ground, Decade tosses another card into the belt. (Form Ride. Wizard Water Style!) Making a huge splash, Wizard swims moving through what seems like a water realm. Spotting Whale down below them, Wizard roars going deeper down to meet the Nameless. Whale heard Wizard and swims up to intercept them. Both beasts ram their heads into each other, but Wizard is quicker in recovering, he spun around swatting the kaiju with his tail.

They chase after Whale with both beasts ramming each other from the side over and over. Decade had switched the Ride Booker to sword mode, slashing at the kaiju each time the two beasts rammed each other. "Watch it, Wizard!" Decade shouted when his brother goes for another tackle, only to come close to getting bitten down on. But he manages to twist, rolling over to Whale's other side. With a flap of his wings, Wizard hits the Nameless with a burst of wind and then swam up to bash the kaiju around with his claws.

"Let's take this back to the surface." Decade tosses another card into his belt. (Attack Ride. Big!) He has the spell circle appear behind them and go through Wizard's tail. The tail becomes huge, which Wizard then slams it over Whale's head and then spun around to send the kaiju flying back up and out of the ground with the two Riders following behind.

"Whoa!" Den-O quickly releases his line on Whale before he got dragged along with it. "A little heads up would be nice, guys."

Whale recovers flying back through the city and resumed firing its streams of water. "Here we go again." The Riders chased after the Nameless. "Alright, time to wrap this up." While Wizard shot fire at the Nameless, Decade brings out two cards. (Attack Ride. Bind!) Spell circles appear all around Whale with silver chains shooting out them that wrap around the Nameless, holding it in place as it struggled to break free. "I go high, and you go low."

"On it." While Decade rode Wizard high into the air, Den-O flew below Whale. 'Were going to need something powerful to send it flying to Decade.' "Hm... I think I have the perfect way." Den-O responded to Ressha with the pass at hand.

Dropping the pass, he kicks it into an empty slot in the bike's steering. (Rod Charge!) Energy from both the bike and belt is sent to the bike's tires as they spun faster and into the rod's tip. He then throws his rod up towards and into Whale's underbelly where it becomes a huge blue hexagonal symbol. Den-O then jumps to allow the hover bike to aim its underside towards the Nameless. Den-O is then launched towards Whale by the tires shooting out cyclones with blue energy. He struggles for a moment before thrusting both his feet into the kaiju, causing the symbol to shatter and sends the Nameless flying toward his friends.

"As my brother would say, 'The finale'." (Final Attack Ride. W-W-Wizard!) As Decade flip jumped off and got behind him, Wizard transformed into a huge dragon's foot. Decade thrusts his kick into the top of the foot and ignited in fire as he dragged it along with him towards Whale. The two collide with the Nameless for a moment and break through the kaiju. Whale exploded as Wizard changed back to normal and landed on the street alongside his brother.

"Decade, I'm going to get you back for that." Wizard said with annoyance turning to face him. "Do you have any idea how weird that felt?"

He just shrugs after a moment of silence. "Hey, it achieved results. What does it matter if the idea worked?" He walks off while dusting off his hands.

Back at the cafe, the three lights on the map of Equestria move to the Crystal Empire and change into Decade, Den-O, and Wizard's symbols. As Den-O changed back Sword Form, the three Riders get surprised when a portal opens above them and are changed into orbs of light that fly into the portal before it closes.

Back with OOO

The Rider skids to a stop panting and falling to one knee. The stinging feeling on his arm and legs had grown. He tries to ignore the feeling, managing to stand and looks ahead to see both kaiju charging towards him.

"I need to end this soon before my body gives out. But what can I do in this situation? Hm?" Hearing his phone get a notification, OOO first stops the two with his mane's blinding light and follows with slashing their sides with his claw blades as he ran by. Buying himself time, he takes out his phone to see it's a notification showing his sword's cleaning has been finished. "Alright! Now we can kick this up a notch." Entering a code, the Medajaribur materializes in front of him and takes ahold of it. He turns facing the two kaiju as they recovered. "Now, I shall judge your greed."

Being the first to recover, Shark dives into the ground with its fin then surfacing and heading towards OOO. The Rider dashes towards it while inserting the elephant medal into the sword. (Zou! Zou Stomp!) Running by the Nameless, OOO slashed his sword down onto the ground where an elephant's footprint crushes into the ground. Shark's head gets stomped on, stopping the Nameless in its tracks with the back end of it standing out of the ground.

(Cheetah! Cheetah Accel!) Inserting the extra medal, the standing Jaguar didn't get a chance to react before OOO attacks it with a combo of yellow fast slashes, each hit making sparks fly off it. "Next!" (Wani! Wani Bite!) The next three slashes hit the Undead with orange crocodile bites with the last being an upward slash that sends it flying backwards.

"And now" OOO looks back to find the Nameless already in the air, diving down on him. (Kani! Kani Pincer!) Thrusting his sword forward, a crab pincer arm catches Shark in its grip and then tossed into Jaguar. "I'll now show you the true strength of desire." OOO inserts three Cell Medals and then scans it over the belt. (Sync! Latorata Charge!) As Jaguar got free from underneath Shark, the Rider waited for the light that the sword radiated like the mane to build up into the blade before making a claw cross slash and thrusts it forward, moving faster than Jaguar could react. The attack slams the Undead against Shark before dragging the two down the street. OOO attaches the scanner to the sword and then chases after them.

"Reiji." Wallflower waited at the edge of the park. Feeling worried, she had kept her sight focused on the street that the Rider had ran down. "Ah?" She spots something coming into sight from the distance. Terror fills her body when she notices Shark. But she relaxes when she spots OOO run past them to reach his friend first and slides to a stop in front of her in a protective manner. "Reiji." (Lion! Tora! Cheetah! Full Set!)

Not saying a word, OOO sprints towards the kaiju while running the sword over his belt. (Latoratah Dual Scanning Charge!) While running, he makes a slash that moves a few feet in front of him with three yellow rings. OOO dashes through the rings with the Toraclaws unfolding, puts the claws into the slash for them to absorb it, then holds out to the sides as the mane's light transferred into the claws and formed a lion's head. "Seiya!" The Rider shouted as he cross slashed the kaiju with his claws.

The Millenia Cruser comes to a stop in front of OOO as he skids to a stop with the space around the kaiju seeming like they were sliced along with them but then slide back into place before the two kaiju exploded. OOO catches the three falling shark items before looking back to Wallflower, who smiles in relief to seeing her friend alright. He smiles under his helmet while giving her a thumbs up, which only lasts a moment as his vision becomes blurry.

"Reiji!/OOO!" Seeing his transformation come undone and he falls to the ground, they all rushed to his side. Seeing this, they all quickly run to his aid. "Reiji? Reiji!? What's the matter with him? Is he alright?" She panicked questioning Turner who does a quick look over.

"He's hurt, but I think he just passed out from having used up all his energy." He places Reiji's arm over his shoulder and helps him up. "Come on. We need to get him back to the cafe."

Derpy taps his back. "What about her?" She questioned looking to Wallflower.

Wallflower becomes surprised by this. She didn't think anyone besides Reiji would notice her existence. Not just Derpy, Turner could see her based on how he looked at her too and says, "Let her come along. Explanations can come later. Now, let's go."

"Come on. I'm sure you want to make sure he's alright." Being encouraged, she followed Derpy to the Millenia. "Hm?" Derpy stops to look around thinking she heard a click sound but finds no one or anything around. "Derpy. We need to go." "Sorry!"

After rushing into the Ride Machine, the Millenia drives off. Someone within the shadow of an ally had watched them leave.

At This Moment

Zero-One and Paladin's battle was still ongoing as the two brought their blades down on each other. Sparks flew off them as they stumbled back and began fighting some grunts. "Zero-One!" Paladin shouted dashing towards the Rider who brings out the wolf key.

"Enough." (Bullet! Progrisekey confirmed. Ready to utilize. Werewolf's ability.) Swinging his sword sends two blue wolf heads at Paladin. They bit onto his wrists, dragging him towards a wall where they change into steaks that hold him in place.

"What?!" Zero-One runs up to him. (Shooting Kaban Strash!) Paladin gets swat to the side with a blue slash that Zero-One also uses to destroy some grunts as he spun around.

Landing next to her, Valkyrie cuts down a Humagear and Yummy before holding out a hand to Paladin. "You alright there, partner?"

The Guardian groaned in annoyance. "Nothing that can't be fixed." He said before taking ahold of her hand and begins fighting alongside her as the grunts try surrounding them.

"Zero-One." Striking down a couple grunts, said Rider looked over to Jurassic. "I just heard back from the others. All we have left are these grunts and Faust." He shove back a grunt before cutting it and a couple others around him.

Jumping back to avoid shots from the Humagears and Riotoozes, Zero-One brings out the scorpion key. "Then it's time to bring this to a close." (Posion! Progrisekey confirmed. Ready to utilize. Scorpion's ability. Chargerise! Full charge!) After closing and opening his sword, a silver scorpion tail extends out the tip of the blade.

"Right behind ya." (Alpha Input!) The Primal Cell called out which he then re-enters the three Primal Core codes.

"Seems the Riders are ready to end things." IXA looks to her subordinates. "We better do the same."

Both Guardians respond saying, "Yes, ma'am!/Yes, ma'am!" and then proceed to activate their finishers. (Hunt!) (PALADIN! MAXIMUM DRIVE!) Valkyrie's belt and Paladin's sword called out with standby music playing.

IXA takes a black whistle with a silver molded in a similar shape as the knuckler from her right side and inserts it into the empty slot of the belt. An electronic noise plays until she presses the knuckle against its other half of the belt and takes it off the belt. (IXA Knuckle, Rise Up!) The robotic voice announced as the knuckle begins to build up energy.

(Sting Kaban Dynamic!) With poison coming off the tail, Zero-One swings his sword around, hitting a huge group of grunts around himself with the scorpion tail acting like a whip. With half being destroyed, he uses the tail to force the rest together and activates his belt's finisher. (Dynamaiting Impact!) Zero-One pounces into the grunts with his magenta armor glowing as energy built up and destroys all of them in an explosion the moment he made contact with them.

(Alpha Spino! Primal Stampede!) Two energy sansetukon formed on the side of both feet. One end attached to the feet and the other ends having a claw and saw blade. With a series of kicks, a huge amount of grunts were destroyed when the claw struck multiple at once while the saw blade cleanly sliced through others, each leaving streaks of water.

(Fighting Blast!) Valkyrie's gun announced after disconnecting it from the belt and activating the finisher. She moved around at high speed with energy building up into her scythe while she corralled the grunts by shooting at them, forcing them together and then cutting them all down at once with her scythe. Paladin stood behind IXA as he swiped sending a slash through a large group of grunts while his captain launches a red burst of energy from the knuckle at a large group of grunts in front of her.

All five had executed their finishers at once with all the grunts exploding. The whole street had been cleared of all the grunts, except for one Riotooze who looks around in a panic. When all the heroes' sights were set on it, the grunt runs, escaping into a shadow.

Both Riders relax for a second before looking to each other. "We need to go. I heard that OOO was hurt." "What!?" "We should rush back to see how he's doing." Zero-One just nodded. They were about rush off but are stopped by the Guardians stepping in front of them.

"You're not going anywhere, Riders." Paladin declared aiming his sword at them.

"You'd be smart to rethink that. We have a friend to check on." Both Riders readied themselves. "But if you want to get in our way..."

Paladin was ready to fight but to his surprise, his captain has him lower his weapon. "I'm sure you and the other Riders have your reasons behind why you're doing all this. But what you are all doing is really dangerous. Not just to yourselves, but to everyone else around you. That's the reason we can't have vigilantes running around doing as they please." She holds her hand out to the two. "I'll only ask this once, please surrender your powers and turn yourselves in before you cause something irreversible. If not, then the next time we meet, we'll have no but to take you down."

Both Riders look to each other for a few seconds before looking back to the Guardians. "I can't speak for the other Riders but I will say you're right. I have my own reasons on why I fight and have no intention of giving any of that up." Jurassic answered with Zero-One then saying, "We also know more about these kaiju than you do. We wouldn't mind helping you when you need our help, but we can't trust leaving them all to you. But right now, we have to go check on our friend. So, if you'll excuse us." They walk past the three as they called in their Ride Machines.

"I hope you know," IXA spoke out making the Riders stop. "this is your only chance. The next time we'll have more of a force that'll bring you in." She turned to face their back.

"Do what you have to, and we'll do the same. See you around, officers." Jurassic mounts his bike with Zero-One doing the same and the two then ride off.

IXA sighs a bit disappointed. "Have it your way, Riders. Alright, Guardians, search around for any wounded." "Yes, ma'am!/Yes, ma'am!" The two responded saluting as they began their search. IXA then smiles looking back to where the Riders had ridden off to. "I'm sure we'll work together at some point Riders."

The Construction Site

"Urgh!"

Build is sent sliding a few feet back. Falling to one knee for a moment, the Rider looks back in time to see Hammer coming at him. He pushes himself past and rolling away from behind the Eon that slams it hammer down, creating a small crater.

(Dragon!Lock! Best Match! Are you ready?) "Build up." (Fuin nofantasy star!KeyDragon!Yeah!)

Hammer turns to find the Rider in his KeyDragon form. Creating a ball of blue flames, Build throws it at the Eon who hits easily hit it aside. Frustrated, he runs up to throw punches and swing the key blade on his arm at Hammer. The Eon does well on parrying a few hits before hitting the key blade aside with its hammer and then thrusting it into Build's chest.

"Agh!" Sparks fly off his chest. Hammer continues its assault, pushing Build back with each hit making sparks fly off him. The Eon backhands the Rider with its hammer causing him to turn his back to it. "Ugh!" Sparks flew off his back from the kaiju having slammed its hammer onto him, forcing him down to his hands and knees.

"Seems my calculations were correct. An Eon modified to take in a Lost Bottle would result in a Smash that's more powerful than an ordinary one." Hammer continued bashing Build's back as she spoke. "Even your best matches don't seem to do you much good. A shame you had to toss aside such a great invention."

"Build!" Dread filled Build the moment he heard the two familiar female voices. Only getting a second, he looked towards the entrance to find Rainbow and Scootaloo.

"And now we have company." Clara spoke with venom. "Eon, dispose of the unwanted guests."

Ceased its attack on Build, Hammer turned its sight to the purple and rainbow haired girls. Rainbow gets in front of Scootaloo in a protective manner the second Hammer began to slowly approach them.

"Leave them out of this, Clara." Forcing himself to his feet, runs up to grab the Eon from behind. "Build, what can we do to help?" "Get out of here, Rainbow! This isn't someone-" He tried ordering her until Hammer broke free from the struggle and shoved him off. The kaiju turns swinging its hammer arm at him. Build ducked under the swing before thrusting flaming palm strikes to its chest three times. Though his attacks looked to do very little from how Hammer seemed to be unaffected by it.

Clara could be heard chuckling as the Eon held onto Build's shoulder while hitting him with a couple of jabs from its hammer before ending with an uppercut. "Why continue when you have no chance at winning? You could just easily escape on your own. So, why fight? These two don't seem worth risking your life for." While being sent rolling with sparks, the Rider shoots out chains that bind Hammer in place.

(Ready? Go!) Hammer breaks the chains with ease. Seeing Build activate his finisher, the Eon hammer glows red with energy as blue flames built up into the Rider's fist. (VortexFinish!Yeah!) Both run at and thrust their attacks into each other.

"Build!" "Scootaloo, get down!" Rainbow tackles Scootaloo to the ground to shield her from the force of the two attacks trying to overpower the other. Both the red energy and blue flames kept building until causing an explosion. Rainbow braced herself as the explosion was heading towards them. Right then, the two are incased in a blue bubble that acts as a barrier, protecting them from the blast of the explosion. The two are bewildered by the sudden bubble rescue that saved their life.

"What the hell? Where'd this bubble come from?" Rainbow questioned while trying to pop the bubble. She stopped when Scootaloo gasps and shouts. "Look!" Rainbow looks back to the source of the explosion, where a small creator now lied with Build lying on his back in it and Hammer still standing. The Eon stood still for a few seconds before taking a few steps forward to place its foot on Build's chest and lifts its hammer overhead to finish off the Rider. "NO!!" Both girls screamed as Hammer brought down its arm. But with a crack appearing on the hammer and the weapon shatters the second it was about to make contact.

"Oh?" The two could hear Clara sound intrigued. "Now that was unexpected. Surprising even. This calls for another experiment. Eon, bring the two annoyances along with you."

Hammer removes its foot off the Rider to make its way over to the two girls. Build tries to move but his body refused to listen to him. Rainbow and Scootaloo readied themselves as if they were planning to fight. Though that is stopped when a pulse in the bubble seems to knock them out cold. The broken hammer changes into a regular hand that the Eon uses to push the bubble forward.

"I do hope you use this opportunity well, Connor. Because we both know Eon will just become more stronger from this."

The Lost Bottle lights up sending power to Hammer's left hand. The Eon turns making it into a fist that it slams into the ground. "Until next time, Connor." The whole building shakes with cracks appearing and spreading through it all. Hammer walks away from the collapsing building. It gets a few feet away from the now completely collapsed building before disappearing into the shadows along with Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo.

Hours Later

With the night and stars now occupying the sky, Emerald sees the last of the customers out the door before flipping the cafe's sign to closed. While she locked up the doors, Derpy, Sunset, and Turner were cleaning the cafe's tables while Drago and Negi worked in the library to reshelve books that were left out at on tables and seats.

Rumble, Apple Bloom and Sweetie had gone home after their siblings arrived to take them home. When the Riders had returned to the cafe, they had wondered what happened to Decade and his team, but they relaxed a bit when they found the three's symbols on the map of Equestria. They knew their friends would return at some point.

Everyone was focused on their work until Derpy spoke up saying, "A lot sure did happen again today. But at least we were able to get back more of the Rider powers back."

"Even one of our own." Turner added looking over the OOO watch that layed on a table next to him. "Though I'm still really curious on the cause for its activation."

"I'm more interested in how that group is getting their hands on those belts." Negi spoke out his mind while reshelving some books. "They may not be a problem, but the source of where they're getting them from might be."

Drago leans against one of the shelves. "True. It could become trouble more later on down the road." He looks over to Derpy and Turner. "How's this friend of Reiji's doing?"

"She's okay." Derpy paused from wiping a table to answer. "She was tired and a little bruised from how she got hit against a car. But other than that, she was fine."

Turner picks up the OOO watch to hand it over to her before saying, "We gave her a ride home after she had calmed down. She sure was really worried about Reiji. She even promised not to tell anyone our secret."

"As for Reiji himself," Emerald walked up next to Derpy. "Along with the small injuries he got, his use of the combo set today drained a lot out of him. Then the cuts he got became worse from all the moving and running around he did. But I added an ointment to his bandages that should speed up the recovery of his injuries." Drago and the others smile at the news. "Though he is going to need to stay on the side lines in the meantime. His magic needs time to restore itself."

"That's good to know. Guess all that's left is just to wait for the guys to return from Equestria."

As if the world is answering Drago, a portal opens in front of the library's counter. Wizard, Decade, and Den-O come jumping out of it with the portal then closing a few seconds. Spike stretched as their transformations came undone.

"Never mind. There they are."

"You guys will not believe what we just went through." Everyone could just hear the excitement in Spike. "But boy was it tiring."

Getting a call, Sunset answered her phone as Drago says, "And I'm sure you're going to enjoy every second explaining the whole story."

Discord tosses two Ridewatches over to Turner and Derby before throwing himself onto one of the couches. "A present from two Riders called Gaim and Ghost that we met there." He answered before they could even ask about it. Aside from a surprised Negi, the two looked to each other confused like the rest of the others who don't know the two Rider names. They then look down at the two blank watches.

"What!?" All eyes turn to Sunset who yelled into the phone. "Who is this? And what do you mean our friend is hurt?"

On the Other End of the Line

A beaten Conner was sitting on a curve with his back a light pole. A bit of blood ran down his head. He was across the street from the now completely demolished building. Kneeling next to Connor, using his phone, is Astral.

"I found him on the street beaten pretty badly. Though I'm not sure what happened." He spoke to Sunset as he explained. "I was going to take him to the hospital, but he's refusing to go."

Conner kept his eyes glued towards the construction site. Remembering back to the Eon taking Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo not only fills him with anger, but also makes him hate himself for failing to protect them. "Don't worry. I'll find you and bring you two back safely. That I promise."

Elsewhere

Within a darkroom, the president of the school's new, Summer was in the process of developing some photos. One of the photos that finishes developing is of Reiji, who's in the middle falling with his transformation coming undone.

She stares at the photo until she suddenly hears a ringing sound. She looks around the room until her eyes stop on a mirror. The dark figure of two creatures battling could be seen within the mirror. She could see they have serpent-like bodies, but one has yellow eyes and the other with red. Summer's attention is completely focused on the roaring of the two creatures that she doesn't notice the glowing coming off a blurred symbol on the back of her hand and a card, with 'ADVENT CARD' on one end and a wavey, mirror reflection of it on the other, appearing next to her feet.
