Kamen Rider Jurassic

Chapter 7- Rejoice! The Lord of Time Arrives

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."

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 no moonsault! 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]

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.

"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.

"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.

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."

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."

"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.

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.

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.

"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.

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.

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."

"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.

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.

"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.

(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 no fantasista! 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."

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."

"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?"

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.
