//------------------------------// // Episode 1: Henshin! 2019! // Story: Kamen Rider Equestria Generations // by ReiwaRider //------------------------------// Friday, September 27, 2019  It's currently a nice day out in the city. Everyone is having a normal day. Some teens are getting some coffee. Cops getting morning donuts. Moms are gossiping about random stuff that doesn't really matter right now.  A young 20 something-year-old couple was stretching on a sidewalk after a morning jog. The man looked at his girlfriend and said "Um, Stella? We have been together for about 2 and a half years so I think it's time I ask this." This grabbed the girl's attention.  The man grabbed a tiny box out of his pocket and bent down on one knee.   "Stella, will you ma- waaaa!!"  The man suddenly fell because someone was running like he was in a hurry. Stella jumped back a bit because of this. The man rubbed his head and was agitated by this. He saw that the person who was running turned around and came to them.  He had light greyish skin, white hair, magenta eyes, blue jeans, a white t-shirt with 12 black lines in a circular position, and a black jacket.  "Oh my gosh, gomen-nasai! Are you two ok?" The teen asked in distress.  Stella then said, "Yeah, we are fi-"  "No! We are not ok!" The man interrupted. "You made me drop my ring! I was saving a lot of money for that! You owe me $1500!"  The white-haired teen looked at the older guy in confusion and said "Ring?" He then realized and brought up his hand. "Oh, you mean this ring?" He gave the ring to the man, who was surprised.   "What the, how? It's perfectly intact?"  "Well as I was running, I felt as if I bumped into something, so I turned around and I saw the ring falling. So out of reflex, I grabbed the ring. No biggie" The boy said laughing rubbing the back of his head.  'Reflex??!! What kind of exercise is this kid doing??' The couple both thought in awe.  "Well, I gotta get going, I hope you two have a good married life!" The kid was about to run off, but Stella then asked him.  "Wait, what's your name?"  The kid turned with a smile with a thumbs up.  "Mirai Clock!!"  Episode 1: Henshin! 2019!  "Well, This it, huh?"  Mirai was in front of a huge building with a bunch of teenagers walking into it. According to the sign, this was known as Canterlot High School.  Mirai took a deep breath. "Ok, dude. Breathe. Just because you're in a public school for the first time, doesn't mean you should freak out. Just remember, have high hopes and make some friends."  He went to open the door but someone slammed the door on him. As the person walked off, Mirai was a little dizzy but he shrugged it off. He then went inside.  Seeing a lot of people while walking in the foyer kinda overwhelmed but despite this, he walked on until he got into the main office.  "Um, hello? Is the vice principal here? I'm new here." Mirai said. A woman in her 40's with Dark blue skin and Dark blue hair which strangely had some stars on it walked in.  "Why yes, hello, I'm vice-principal Luna, how can I help you?" Luna said with a mature smile.  "Um, my name is Mirai Clock, I'm here to get my schedule."  Luna went into her documents and grabbed a piece of paper and handed it to Mirai. "Here you go, young man, I hope you have a nice 2 years here."  Mirai said his thanks and got out of the office.  Mirai looked at his schedule in front of a room and confirmed it was the right room for his 1st period. "Math, huh?" He went in and he saw a bunch of teens talking to each other.  He sat in a seat in the far back since it was the only seat that was not taken.  'Should I try talking to one of them? No, I probably shouldn't be in their business. I shouldn't rush.'  A middle-aged man with a toupee walks into the class, gaining Mirai's attention. He then called out "Ok, simmer down class" Which made the class be quiet.  "Alright, according to the news I got, we supposedly have a new student today, can Mirai Clock stand up and introduce himself?"  Mirai stood up making everyone look up at him. With a bit of nervousness, Mirai said "Hello, I'm Mirai Clock, this is my first time in a Public School because I've been homeschooled my whole life, but please don't treat me any different than anyone else, and I hope we can all be friends!" That last part, he said it with a wide smile.  He heard a "Tch" coming from someone, but he didn't pay any mind. He sat back down to his seat, ready to listen.  "Ok class, before we start who can tell me the answer to this problem?" The teacher said pointing to the board. A hand was raised and out of impulse, everyone looked at the raised hand.  An orange-skinned girl with hair that had streaks of red and orange, blue eyes, a purple shirt that had a sun on it, a leather jacket, and a skirt was raising her hand. "The answer is x to the second power minus 17x plus 72."  The teacher said in a bored expression "As usual, Sunset Shimmer, you're correct."  "Well, would you expect any less from the best?" Sunset said with a smirk on her face.  Mirai got this odd vibe when she smirked, like a feeling she's about to do something. 'Maybe I should talk to her after class'  The class hour went by. It was just a basic lesson, so Mirai was able to get through it fine. The bell rang and all the students were leaving.  Mirai saw sunset going so he caught up to her at the door.  "Um, hello, you probably remember me from earlier, my name is Mirai, I was wondering-"  "You're in my way......"  Mirai froze a bit at this comment as he saw a sharp glare from her for a second before she walked off.  Mirai looked at her as she walked off. "Who is she?"  Time passed by fast for Mirai. He went through his next 2 periods like it was nothing. This was because the whole all he could think about is that Sunset girl. He couldn't stop thinking of that odd vibe she emitted.  "EE HEEMMM!!!!"  Mirai got out of his thoughts when the coach fake coughed. Mirai's 3rd period was gym.  "For the tenth time, can you please introduce yourself, new kid!"  "Oh, right! Sorry!" Mirai stood up and introduced himself and then sat back down.  "Alright, You maggots! Just because there's a new kid here doesn't mean I gotta go easy on ya. You will sweat! You will cry! You will bleed! So we are gonna try one of the most hardcore games ever.......... Dodgeball!!!!" The coach said in a dramatic way.  Mirai was confused about this statement. 'Really? I don't think dodgeball is that bad.'  "And the ones who will be team captains are rainbow dash and Lightning dust!!" The coach yelled pointing to a girl with blue skin with rainbow hair and a girl of the same age with teal skin and yellowish hair.  After the coach revealed that, everyone except Mirai started sweating.  Rainbow Dash and Lightning dust picked their teams. Mirai was on Lightning Dust's team.  Before the game started, Lightning dust called out for her teammates. All of them including Mirai walked up to her.  "There's one thing I need to say to you all.......... You better not mess this up for me!! There is no way I am losing to Rainbow Crash!! Not today!!!" She yelled while her teammates nodded in fear.  Mirai spoke up "Um, aren't you over-exaggerating a little bit, I mean, It's just dodge-Mmm!!!!" A hand was clasped on his mouth as a random guy said "Dude, just don't"  The coach said "Noooooowww...... Start!!!!"  Dodgeballs were being thrown everywhere. A bunch of people were getting hit. Mirai was able to successfully evade them. Lightning Dust and Rainbow dash were staring down at each other intensely while throwing dodgeballs at each other. They must have some kind of rivalry.  While Mirai was evading dodgeballs, he saw one aiming fast at a girl with dark purple skin and hair who wasn't looking. Mirai was about to run at her to get her out of the way until he saw another guy throw himself at her to evade the ball.  The girl relieved the ball didn't hit her, looked up, and said "Oh, thank yo-" her eyes widened when she saw who it was and pushed the guy off her. "I did not ask for your help, you creep!!!"  Mirai ran up to them "Wait a minute, why'd you push him? Didn't he just help you?"  As the girl was about to answer, 3 dodgeballs hit the 3 of them at the same time. They looked at the source and saw that Rainbow dash was in a position of a person who threw something.  'Wait, but...... 3 dodgeballs....... 2 arms........how??!!' Mirai thought in confusion.  Spitfire ticked said "Hey! You 3! What the hell are you doing! You're supposed to be dodging!!" Then a dodgeball hit her arm.  "Rainbow dash's team wins!!!!" The coach yelled while Rainbow jumped up and down in excitement.  "Now since the other team lost because of their lack of teamwork, they have to run 10 laps around the gym and have to do 10 pushups at the end of each lap!!"  Mirai said with eyes wide open "Wait, What?"  "Ow, my arm"  Mirai was rubbing his arm since the intense workout had kind of a toll on him. He was walking through the hallway.  "What is up with everybody? It's like people are at each other's throats or something. Like those rainbow and lightning girls," Mirai was thinking about them, imagining them with sharp teeth with the words win, win, win around them. Mirai shuddered a bit at that thought.  Mirai then thought about that guy from gym class. "What was the deal between that guy and the girl? Did something happen between them? Is it perhaps......? a lovers quarrel?"  He went closer to the cafeteria as he talked to himself. "Hmm.... probably not. Well, I can't think about anything on an empty stomach, time to eat." With a smile on his face, Mirai ran to the cafeteria.  When he looked at the cafeteria, he saw a bunch of students dancing? And singing? And wearing pony ears and tails?  "I had a big breakfast anyway" Mirai turned and walked back into the hallway.  After that............. event.........., Mirai went through his other classes. For some reason, people were wearing fake pony ears. Mirai heard it was because of this fall formal thing that's happening tonight. People were more cheery than usual. Mirai was thinking of talking to someone but he kinda felt like he shouldn't.  Soon enough the final bell rang, so all the students went their separate ways. A bunch of them were talking about what they should wear or about the fall formal or where they gonna go with their dates after. Mirai was just walking off with a sad expression.  "What should I do? Should I take a walk or just go straight home? It's not like I have a lot to do" Mirai wondered.  Mirai decided to take a long walk around the town then go to that one place he liked to eat at.  The walk he went on was particularly a long one like 2 or 3 hours. It's not that it was a big town, it's that he kept going in circles thinking to himself. He finally went to his favorite café. He sat at a seat for a while thinking there until one of the clerks asked him to order food.  "Oh, sorry about that! I would like a double cheeseburger and some root beer"  When Mirai was about to eat his food, his phone vibrated. He got it out of his pocket and saw a call on his phone. He answered it.  "Hey!!!..... Yeah, my school day was fine....... Yes, I introduced myself........ I don't think I made any friends yet, but I think I'm getting there!!"  Mirai thought to himself for a bit and said "Hey...... um, I've been thinking........ should I really be doing this.......... you know, going to school..........yes, I know, that grandpa wanted this......... but shouldn't I be focusing for when they come........ I kinda feel like that is the priority.......... whatever, my food is getting cold, I'll see ya at the house k? Bye." Mirai hung up and ate his food. When he finished, he walked out of the café.  As he walked out, his shoulder bumped into someone else's. Out of impulse, he looked at the person. The person had a hoodie on so he couldn't really see the face of that person. He did notice a bit of orange hair popping out of the hoodie. Also, the person had 2 other hooded figures following them. Mirai paid no mind not wanting to judge and left.  On his way walking home, he saw his school from a mile. He then paid no mind to it and tried to walk by it. When he was looking at the ground of the sidewalk, he saw something at the corner of his eye. He looked at the origin of the thing, and when he saw it, his eyes were wide open.  In front of the school, he saw 6 girls. One with light purple skin and hair with streaks of dark and light purple, One with white skin and dark purple hair, that rainbow dash girl from gym class, one with yellow skin and pink hair, one with orange skin and blonde hair, and one with pink skin and equally pink hair. What Mirai took notice of was that they all for some reason had actual pony ears at the top of the heads and their hair was long to make it look like tails. The purple girl, rainbow girl, and yellow girl had wings matching their skin color.  Floating in the air was this red-skinned demon girl with black and red wings, claws for fingers, fire hair, and some crown on her head.  Mirai ran behind a bush to see closer. He also saw that other students were in some kind of hypnosis state. Mirai looked at the demon girl. He then realized who it was.  'Wait a minute, is that sunset? How? Is this what she was planning on doing? Is she one of them? Should I.........' Mirai thought while getting in a stance like he was gonna do something. He then noticed the six girls were floating in the air.  The six girls held hands and a bright light engulfed them. A double helix rainbow shot to the ground and a rainbow shot at sunset engulfing her in a rainbow tornado. 'What the frick is with all these rainbows???!!!' Mirai thought with a whole lot of confusion.  He closed his eyes out of impulse and heard sunset screaming. When the rainbows died down, Mirai opened his eyes, he saw that the 6 girls were back on the ground, the students were back to normal, and there was a crater where Sunset was.  Wait.........  'Holy crap!!!! Did they just kill her!!!! I mean I think she was kind of unpleasant, but that's no reason to kill someone!!!' Mirai thought in surprise.  The purple girl walked up to the crater and looked at the center of it.  "You will never rule Equestria. Any power you have had in this world is-"  "Shut up." A voice interrupted from the crater. A hand went up and pulled itself out of the crater. It turned out to be sunset who was hurt and in her normal state.  She had an angry expression and said "I was her first student, I should be princess, not you! You all defied me, so this will be your punishment!" She revealed a red rectangular object in her hands with a button on it.  Mirai recognized what it was 'Is that........? It is!'  Sunset pressed the button and it announced  Heat!!  She put the object on her wrist and a bright light engulfed her. When the light dies down, It reveals a red and orange monster-like person in sunset's place who appeared to have no eyes and a human-like mouthpiece.  Sunset looked at herself and said in glee "That person was right! This does feel good!" She looked at some students and fired at them with flames. The students evaded them successfully, but this attempt made them run. The 2 principals were helping them evacuate while the 6 girls stayed.  Rainbow dash yelled "Don't get cocky just because you look different" She flew up and fired some kind of rainbow blast at Sunset, but it didn't seem to affect her at all.  The purple girl said in surprise "Magic doesn't affect her." Sunset jumped really high and punched Rainbow to the ground. Rainbow's friends went to her to see if she was ok. The orange-skinned girl got angry and ran to sunset to punch her, but Sunset was able to catch the fist.  "Now, now, Applejack, haven't you dirtied your hands enough?" Sunset said mockingly then headbutted applejack in the face making her fly to the ground.  "This power is amazing! I don't even have to make people bow down to me, I just gotta kill some before they do bow! And I'll start with you six!"  "No, you won't."  Sunset and the others looked at where the voice came from. They saw that Mirai walking until he was between Sunset and the six girls. "You won't be killing anyone today." Mirai said in a serious expression.  "Heh, so you're gonna defy me too?"  "Probably, I don't even know you, so"  Ticked, Sunset threw a ball of fire at Mirai. Right before it could hit him, Mirai jumped sideways to evade it.  "Look, I don't know about this stuff about Equestria or pony ears you're all about, but there's one thing I do know, I'm not gonna let you kill anyone! Not again!"  Mirai is seen in a room, crying, shaking an elderly person who appeared to be...  "Grandpa? Grandpa?! GRAAAAANNDDDPAAAA!!!!!!"  Suddenly 2 things appear in his hands. On his left hand was this belt thing that was silver, had 2 slots on opposite vertical ends of the belt and a rectangle screen. On his right hand, was this pocket watch like thing that had a symbol on the top and 2018 on the bottom.  "And I will be the one to make that come true."  Mirai latched the belt on his waist making it, latch around him  Ziku-Driver!!  Mirai turned the faceplate of the watch, 90 degrees clockwise revealing some kind of face. He then pressed the top button.  Zi-O!!  He enters the watch into the right slot of the driver. Mirai then pressed the button on top of the driver. Behind him, a transparent clock with giant hands appeared behind him. Mirai inhaled and exhaled and yelled "Henshin!" And turned the drivers face 360 degrees counterclockwise.  Rider Time!! Kamen Rider Zi-O!!  Giant magenta Japanese katakana appeared on the clock and went in the air as the clock disappeared. Then a bunch of silver bands went around Mirai forming a suit. As the bands disappeared, It revealed an armored warrior in a black armor suit with silver and pink on his chest and shoulders, a silver band running across the top part of the body, a white faceplate with arrows that resembled a clock saying 10:10, and an incomplete black visor. The Japanese katakana turned small and went on his black visor forming a complete face.  The six girls were in awe of what they were seeing. Rainbow dash walked up to the purple girl and asked "Twilight? Is that guy from where you come from too?"  "No, well I don't think so, his armor doesn't necessarily look like equestrian magic" Twilight answered rubbing her finger underneath her chin.  "That's because it isn't."  The main six jumped when a strange man with a coat and scarf suddenly appeared beside them. He also had an open book with no title in his hands. The man walked up to Mirai and looked at him in awe.  "IWAE! For he is the one who will inherit the power of all riders, the one who will be your hero, the prince of time, his name is Kamen Rider Zi-O! Prepare, yourselves, for this is the start of an amazing new Era."  Mirai then ran to Sunset, with Sunset going to a battle stance. Their fight is starting. They are trying to punch one another, but the other is evading. While they are fighting, one of the girls raises their hand, the yellow-skinned one in fact. The strange man asked "Yes, young Fluttershy?"  "Ok, um, first, how do you know my name, and, um, if it's not much of a bother, um, who are you."  "Well, for the first question, I have my ways, and secondly, my name is rider prophet Woz. What I do is praise the great events that are going to happen in all of history." Woz then pointed to the fight.  "And that right there is the first of many."  The six of them thought "So, he's basically a preacher?"  K, getting back to the fight.....  Sunset made a bunch of fire to throw at Mirai. Mirai is able to successfully run to evade. He ran to her. He threw a bunch of punches at her and she kept evading him.  She jumped back and asked "Tell me something, won't you? How come you're trying to help these people? You don't seem to know them. So, what is your reason?"  Mirai clenched his fists and yelled "You really think I'm trying to gain some motive? You idiot! I'm helping them because that's what a hero does! They make sure that people don't have to get hurt!"  While Mirai was talking, he didn't notice that Sunset was running with a really fiery fist. "You know, if you want to be a hero so much, you shouldn't really get distracted." She then punches him in the chest, but it doesn't seem to faze him. This surprises her.  "Wha- How!!!"  Woz then spoke up "You see, Zi-O's chest armor is made of a metal coating known as Graphenium Coat which raises durability."  Mirai then raises his right arm and punches Sunset in the face. This caused her to fly 10 feet into the air.  Woz then exclaimed "His forearm armor is also filled with shock-absorbent material known as Amsein which absorbs and releases physical attacks and his hands are filled with Graphenium Bite units, raising his punching power."  Mirai, hearing Woz, was looking at his hands saying "Rider power is amazing! I didn't know they were this powerful."  He looked at Sunset. He saw that she was putting her hands together, with energy coming out of them. He figured out that she was making a big fire blast. Mirai then thought 'I better summon it.'  Sunset made a huge fireball and threw it at Mirai and it was coming fast. When It was gonna come in contact with him, the fireball was split in half. It was then revealed that Mirai had a black and silver sword with Magenta Japanese katakana. Zikan Girade!! Ken!!  Mirai ran up to Sunset, since she was low on energy, he decided to take advantage of the situation, and use his sword to slash at her. On his final slash, she went up into the air. When this happened, Mirai saw his chance. He pressed his watch and belt's buttons.  Finish Time!!  Many Japanese katakana appeared and circled sunset. Mirai jumped and while in the air, he turned his belt counter-clockwise.  Time Break!!  The katakana merged into one, and they went onto Mirai's right foot. He yelled out a terrific battle cry.  "Rider Kick!!"  The kick made contact with sunset who was still in the air, causing an explosion, defeating her. Landing, Mirai was on the other side of the crater. Mirai turned around and looked down at the crater. Sunset was there, groaning.  Mirai looked at her in relief and sighed.  'I was afraid I killed her for a sec'
