Sunset's Journey

S1E11 Bob Barbas

“I am no longer suited for battle,” explained Phineas as he walked with Dante and Symbol. “I cannot proceed,” he finished.

“Thank you, Phineas,” replied Dante.

“It wasn’t quite a favour,” replied Phineas.

“Yeah,” replied Symbol. “It was repayment for us getting your eye back from the Phantoms.”

“That and I want to see Wiseman destroyed. Now I believe that you may stand a chance,” he explained.

“What made you change your mind?” Dante wanted to know.

The Phantom stopped walking and turned towards the two of them. “You were right. You are not just like your father. I see your mother in you two.”

“I don’t think that's what he meant,” injected Symbol.

Phineas continued. “You want to hit Wiseman hard? This is how. Wiseman has power almost beyond limit. But, he has one single weakness.”

“He has a weakness?” questioned Dante.

“Now this I’ve got to hear!” stated Symbol.

“Yes. His mistress, Lilith,” explained Phineas. “One of the females that sold out her planet in exchange for being spared from the invasion of her homeworld and a place power among the Phantoms.”

“His weakness is that he loves her?” demanded Dante in disbelief with Symbol sharing his doubt.

Phineas burst out laughing. “Wiseman? Love? No, my friends,” he turned back to the siblings. “Yet, she has recently become the most important thing in creation to him. This is what I have seen. Lilith, his mistress, carries his child. His heir.”

Their faces would have shown shock, had they been in their human form.

“You want to hurt Wiseman? Kill Lilith. Kill the child. Nothing will hurt him more. But be warned, the fury of Wiseman is boundless. My of thousands could perish,” with that the Phantom used his eye to repair the bridge in front of them and vanished. “Good hunting, young ones.”

“Dante if you even think about doing that then I will make you wish Wiseman had killed you,” deadpanned Symbol.

“Why shouldn’t we?” demanded Dante. “Wiseman killed our mother and father, why not kill his child?!”

“Because then we’d be as bad as Wiseman, if not worse!” shouted Symbol.

That brought Dante up cold.

“Wiseman has been hunting us both down because we’re a threat and because we’re our parent's children. If we kill an unborn child just because he is the heir of Wiseman then how are we any different?!” with that Symbol walked down the bridge with Dante following, still deep in thought.

It took them a second to realise that they were upside down!

“Ok, now this is weird!” shouted Symbol.

Suddenly the light from the prison tower spotted them and energy started to gather around the part of the town that was emitting the light.

“That's not good,” muttered Symbol.

“No kidding!” shouted Dante as a laser beam shot out of the tower destroying the part of the bridge that was in front of them, resulting the whole thing flipping back the right way around. “Good. We’ve finally got his attention,” smirked Dante.

“How is that a good thing?!” demanded Symbol.

[SET!] [OPEN!] [O-S-I-R-I-S!] Dante transformed into his Angel Style. [KICK STRIKE GO!] He kicked off the air and streaked forwards while covered in the light blue wind. He landed on a piece of the bridge that was floating in the storm that the Slip Dimension had transformed into. Dante jumped over another beam and boosted forwards, landing on another piece of the bridge with his sister.

Right as the tower fired another beam that turned the platform they were just on to ash.

“That was close!” shouted Symbol.

“Yeah, look out!” shouted Dante as the beam started to turn the platform they were on to ash. [KICK STRIKE GO!] He jumped off the platform. [HOOK MODE!] He transformed the Osiris Scythe into the Angel Lift and hooked to a pair of rocks before landing on another platform after boosting off the air.

“WOAH!” shouted Dante as the beam swung around and clipped the platform, causing it to tilt downwards. Both of them were forced to slide down it and land on the next platform.

They ran along the platform, outrunning the beam and hooking or jumping to another pair of rocks before sliding down another slop that was once a piece of the bridge.

The beam turned half of it to ash and forced them to slide over to avoid falling off.

Dante hooked onto a rock, then onto another rock and unhooked from it right before the beam disintegrated it. Dante hooked onto another rock then onto the TV screen and pulled himself towards it.

“DANTE WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” shouted Symbol as she followed her brother into the TV screen.

They were both shocked when the phased into the TV!

When their visors adjusted they found themselves in a long tunnel with the words ‘RAPTOR NEWS NETWORK’ moving from one end to the other and circling around the tunnel. At the end of the tunnel was a black spinning globe with the water being black and the countries being red. It was circled by the words ‘RAPTOR NEWS NETWORK’ with the first word being blue and the other two being white. The platform they were standing on looked like a white cloud.

“...I wasn’t expecting this,” stated Symbol after several seconds of looking around.

“Me neither,” replied Dante.

Symbol jumped to another platform that looked like a white cloud, before jumping up to a third platform and then down to a fourth one. Each jump had required a flap of the Flight Wings.

[MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] [ACTIVE PLEASE!] [LET’S GO!] Symbol transformed into the Active Style. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] [BOOST DEFEND PLEASE!] Then she changed into the Active Boost Defend Style. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] [BOOST MAGIC PLEASE!] Purple magical energy ran into the Boost Grieves as Symbol jumped into a small white square and then off it towards another platform.

[MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] [DEFEND MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol realized the platform was too far as she threw the Defend Shield and it was covered in grey magical energy, hovering for several seconds as she jumped off it and landed on the other cloud.

[MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] [SWIFT PLEASE!] [DASH AWAY!] Symbol transformed back into the Swift Style. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] [WING SNIPER PLEASE!] Then into the Swift Wing Sniper Style before using the Flight Wings to clear the next jump. She jumped to another platform before realizing the third was too high to reach with the Flight Wings.

[MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] [ACTIVE PLEASE!] [LET’S GO!] Symbol transformed into the Active Style. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] [BOOST DEFEND PLEASE!] Not even a second later she transformed into the Active Boost Defend Style. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] [BOOST MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol ran forwards as purple magical energy ran into the Boost Grieves, she jumped into the air and landed firmly on the platform.

Symbol jumped to a white cube, then across to a second white cube before realising the jump was far too long for her to make. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] [DEFEND MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol charged the Defend Shield with grey magical energy as she threw her shield forwards and landed on it before jumping off and landing on the next solid platform.

“Are we supposed to go inside that thing?” asked Symbol.

“Apparently,” replied Dante as he landed beside her.

Neither of them moved.

“Ladies first,” offered Dante.

“Age before beauty,” replied Symbol.

“Har de har har,” replied Dante as he hooked onto the planet and jumped into it.

Symbol followed with a boosted jump.

They landed inside a giant dome-shaped room with various news windows orbiting it. On the blue holographic floor was six blank circles with lines leading from them into a single point in the centre of the room.

“..Where’s Bob!!” demanded Dante after several seconds.

“How should I know?” demanded Symbol in retort.

Suddenly, three of the six circles started to feed red energy into the point where the lines met before the other three joined them For several seconds the energy gathered until five of the circles went out and a giant version of Bob’s head appeared, made of TV screens and gave a demonic laugh.

“Wait a minute!” shouted Symbol. “The Phantom and spies on the human world is a giant head?!”

“Apparently, now we know why he acts like he has such a big head! He really does a have a big head!” mocked Dante.

Symbol groaned at the lame joke.

“This is Bob Barbas, just doing god’s work,” shouted the Phantom in a demonic voice that would have been rather scary to any human.

It’s a good thing that Symbol and Dante were not human.

A screen with Bob’s human body appeared in front of the Phantom. His human form was shown sitting behind a news desk.

“Hey Bob, put a spin on this,” Dante gave the Phantom the middle finger.

“My personal view on the terrorists,” began Bob Barbas. “Is that they are disgusting, degrading, ghastly, sleazy, prurient and generally nauseating,” he finished his stream of insults. “The worst of them are Dante and Sunset. The whole world would benefit greatly from their non-exitances.”

“We’re taking you off the air!” Symbol threatened Bob Barbas as she pointed the Active Blade at his human form.

“You think so?” questioned Bob.

“Yeah, we do!” replied Dante.

“I wouldn't bet on it! You little shits!” replied Bob. Unlike the Succubus Phantom, he was very calm in the face of danger.

Then again, he was of the miss guiding belief that he could kill both of the Kamen Rider’s with no trouble and be greatly rewarded by Wiseman.

Wiseman would probably kill Bob himself for robbing him of his revenge.

Yellow pixel like energy gathered around Bob before he fired it out in a circle that had several holes in it. Symbol pressed the right Shift Lever once as she jumped through one of the holes. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] She flew towards Bob Barbas as she scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [WING MAGIC PLEASE!] Silver energy covered Symbol’s Flight Wings as she shot forwards, leaving two trails of silver light. She slashed at Bob Barbas with one of the Flight Wings only to pass straight through him! “What on earth?!” shouted Symbol.

“Ha ha ha! I am a servant of the great Wiseman! Your attacks cannot hurt me!” with that Bob fired a beam of blue digital energy at Symbol. She was forced to fly out of the way as the beam started to track her.

“Dante! A little help here!” shouted Symbol as she pressed the left Shift Lever twice. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] Before scanning the Swift Ring. [SWIFT! B RANK SPELL!] Her body was covered in yellow magical energy as she shot forwards at high speed, outrunning the beam for a few seconds before it started to pick up speed.

“I’m on it sis!” shouted Dante as he changed the Angel Ring for the Eryx Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] Dante turned his wrist back to make his Driver’s gate close, before turning it forwards making his Driver’s gate spring open. [OPEN!] The eryx magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him, transforming Dante into the Eryx Style. [E-R-Y-X!] Dante jumped into the air as he punched the Eryx Ring into the back of the right Eryx Gauntlet. [FIVE!] The holographic dice appeared before stopping on a five. [FIST STRIKE!] Dante jumped into the air and punched down on the lit red circle.

“ARGH!” shouted Bob as he felt that hit and struggled to keep up the beam.

“Whatever you just did, do it again!” shouted Symbol as her yellow mana started to flicker and she started to slow down.

Dante nodded as he jumped into the air again and pressed the trigger inside the left Eryx Gauntlet. [FIST STRIKE!] Red magical energy covered him and formed into a construct of the left Eryx Gauntlet as he went shooting down and slammed the attack on the button again.

“ARGH!” screamed Bob Barbas as his head went from red to blue.

“Now’s our chance!” shouted Symbol as she turned in the air and pulled out the Swift Blaster, opening its Hand Author. [COME ON A BLAST SHAKE HANDS!] Symbol scanned the Swift Ring across it as she continued to circle Bob Barbas, picking up speed. [SWIFT! BLASTER STRIKE!] Symbol fired a barrage of yellow bullets from the Swift Blaster. “Bullet Barrage!” shouted Symbol as she picked up speed to the point she looked like a yellow circle surrounding Bob Barbas with yellow magical bullets hitting him from all directions at once.

Suddenly, Bob Barbas unleashed a pulse of energy that sent Symbol flying back as she smashed into a wall.

“Sunset!” shouted Dante in concern for his sister.

“I’m fine!” shouted Symbol. “I saw what you did! I’ll hit the switch this time! You keep him busy!” she ordered her brother as she spread the Flight Wings and flew into the air, hoping that Dante could keep Bob off her.

Dante pulled out Ebony and Ivory, holding down on their triggers. Two red rings were pulled into each of them while a black ring was pulled into Ebony and a white ring was sucked into Ivory’s barrel. [EBONY AND IVORY STRIKE!] Dante let go of the triggers, firing a red and white bullet that spiralled around each other to form a drill effect. “Spinning Fist!” shouted Dante as the drill effect caught fire. It flew through Bob, doing no damage but still got his attention as he fired a massive blue beam of digital energy at Dante.

Dante started running but the beam quickly began to catch up. He switched the Eryx Ring for the Angel Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] Dante turned his wrist back before twisting it forwards making his Driver’s gate snap shut before springing open. [OPEN!] The angel magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and he ran through it. [O-S-I-R-I-S!] Emerging in the Angel Style as he punched the Angel Ring into his Driver’s left slot a second time. [KICK STRIKE GO!] Dante was covered in the light blue wind as he kicked the air behind him and boosted forwards, but the beam only lost a bit of ground and started keeping pace with him.

Symbol switched the Swift Ring for the Giga Ring and pressed the left Shift Lever. [MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] She scanned the Giga Ring across the Wizard Drivers Hand Author. [GIGA PLEASE!] The giga magic circle appeared under her boots and rose up through her. [BREAK THROUGH!] Even as the transformation was taking place, Symbol added the Hammer and Quake Rings to her right index and ring fingers then hit the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] She swiped her right glove. [HAMMER QUAKE PLEASE!] The hammer and quake magic circles appeared under her boots and rose up through her, transforming Symbol into the Giga Hammer Quake Style. She reached down and slammed her glove down on the right Shift Lever once. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] Then swiped her right glove across it. [HAMMER MAGIC PLEASE!] The Piston Hammer was covered in black magic energy as Symbol pulled it back and slammed it on the button.

“ARGH!” screamed Bob Barbas in pain as his body sparked and turned blue, forcing him to cut off the beam.

“I’m on it!” shouted Dante as he closed the distance between himself and Bob Barbas. He punched the Angel Ring into the back of the Osiris Scythe’s blade. [TWO!] Which opened to show a pair of light blue circles. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Dante spun the Osiris Scythe like a vertical propeller, cutting into the Bob Barbas Phantom repeatedly and making sparks explode from each cut. Then he reversed the direction of the Osiris Scythe doing even more damage to the Phantom.

Dante pressed down on the Osiris Scythe’s trigger. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Like blue energy ran up the Osiris Scythe’s shaft and into its blade as Dante spun it like a vertical propeller before reversing the direction of the Osiris Scythe. “Prop Shredder!” he fired a pair of vertical light blue disks that sawed into the Phantom making sparks explode from its face.

Bob had enough and let off a pulse of red energy that sent Dante flying backwards, sparks flew from his armour as the blast did a lot of damage thanks to him being in a speed based armour.

“Dante!” shouted Symbol.

“I’m fine!” shouted Dante back as he got back up.

Bob gave a roar as he started to charge up purple energy around himself.

“Be careful!” warned Symbol. “I think this is a new attack!”

“You think?!” demanded Dante, right as Bob fired two green beams that slammed together, sandwiching the two Kamen Rider’s between them.

“ARGH!” shouted the two Kamen Rider’s as sparks exploded from their armour and pain shot through their bodies.

“HA! I got you that time!” shouted Bob Barbas in glee.

“Yeah, well your not going to get us again!” shouted Symbol in anger as she got back to her boots. She changed the Hammer and Quake Rings for the Punch and Drill Rings before pressing the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] Then he scanned his right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author before holding it down to the ground. [PUNCH DRILL PLEASE!] The two magic circles appeared and rose up through Symbol transforming her into the Giga Punch Drill Style.

“Bring it on!” Bob charged a circle of green digital energy around himself and fired two green beams of energy that slammed closed around the Kamen Rider’s.

Just before the beams could hit, Symbol hit the right Shift Lever three times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] Then she scanned her right glove. [PUNCH DRILL MAGIC PLEASE!] Red flames and purple magical energy covered her arms before transforming into a pair of drills. Symbol punched outwards and the drills made contact with the beams, stopping both of them. “Dante go!” shouted Symbol as she struggled to hold the beams back. “While I can still hold them! Hurry!”

“I’m on it!” shouted Dante as he jumped over the beams and ran to the first circle shaped button that was glowing red and feeding energy into Bob Barbas. He changed the Angel Ring for the Eryx Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] Dante turned his wrist back then twisted it forwards, making his Driver’s gate close before opening again. [OPEN!] The eryx magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and he ran through it. [E-R-Y-X!] This transformed him into the Eryx Style as he jumped into the air and pressed the Eryx Ring into the back of the right Eryx Gauntlet. [FIVE!] The dice appeared and rolled before stopping on a five. [FIST STRIKE!] Then Dante pressed the trigger inside the left Eryx Gauntlet. [FIST STRIKE!] Red energy gathered around him and formed into a construct of the left Eryx Gauntlet. “Stomp!” Dante went shooting down and slammed his construct into the button, triggering it and causing Bob Barbas to flinch in pain and anger from it.

But the beams did not stop.

“Dante what did you do! He isn’t stopping!” shouted Symbol.

“I don’t know! All I did was hit the button!” yelled Dante.

“HAHAHA! YOU CAN’T STOP ME! I AM UNSTOPPABLE!” shouted Bob Barbas as the beams continued to crush Symbol making her shout out in pain as the drills started to lose their speed and power from the friction.

Dante looked around desperately and then he saw another button feeding energy into Bob Barbas. “Why you big sneaky!” he ran towards it.

Bob Barbas was to busy attacking Symbol to notice.

Dante jumped into the air as he pressed the Eryx Ring into the back of the right Eryx Gauntlet again. [FIVE!] The dice appeared again on a five. [FIST STRIKE!] Dante pressed the Eryx Ring into the left slot of his Driver. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] Burning crimson flames covered his right boot and formed into a construct of the left Eryx Gauntlet. “Drop!” shouted Dante as he went shooting down and slammed his boot into the button with all the force he had.

“ARGH!” shouted Bob Barbas as his head turned blue and the beams cut off, stopping them from crushing Symbol.

“Now’s my chance!” shouted Symbol as she ran forwards towards Bob Barbas. She hit the right Shift Lever four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO! VERY NICE!] Then scanned the Punch and Drill Rings across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [PUNCH DRILL MAGIC! THE BEST!] Symbol ran forwards as the drills appeared on both of her gloves before the right drill merged with the left drill making it grow in length before it ballooned in size. “Merged Giga Drill Breaker!” shouted Symbol as she rammed her giant drill into Bob’s head making sparks explode from it.

Bob Barbas screamed in pain and built up red energy that threw Symbol backwards but she was able to turn in the air and land on her boots.

Seeing that Bob’s head was still blue and vulnerable Symbol pulled out the Giga Spear and then pulled open its Hand Author. [COME ON A STAB SHAKE HANDS!] She scanned her Giga Ring across it. [GIGA! STAB STRIKE!] Symbol spun the Giga Spear around for several seconds, letting green magical energy gather around it. “Piercing Giga!” she stabbed forwards, firing a blast of green magic energy that slammed into Bob’s face and made sparks explode from the impact point as he shouted in pain.

Bob Barbas fired a huge burst of red energy that forced the two Kamen Rider’s back before the energy was absorbed into his head, turning it red once more. Then he charged up yellow energy before firing it out in a giant wall that circled around him and slowly grew outwards toward Symbol and Dante.

“This time I’ll hold it! Get to the switches!” shouted Dante as he changed the Eryx Ring for the Nephilim Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] He turned his wrist back, then forwards making his Driver’s gate close and open. [OPEN!] The nephilim magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him. [N-E-P-H-I-L-I-M!] Transforming Dante into the Nephilim Style. He slammed the Nephilim Ring into the slot at the base of the Rebellion Blade’s handle. [FIVE!] The mouth opened to reveal five red and blue circles. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Dante pressed down on the Rebellion Blade’s trigger. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Red and blue energy ran down the Rebellion Blade as Dante charged. “Stinger!” he slammed the tip of the Rebellion Blade into the wall and for several seconds held it back before it started to force him backwards. “Hurry up Sunset!” shouted Dante.

“I’m going as fast as I can!” shouted Symbol as she switched the Giga Ring for the Active Ring and punched the left Shift Lever. [MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] Then she scanned her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [ACTIVE PLEASE!] Symbol held her left glove out to the side and the active magic circle moved through her. [LET’S GO!] Now that she was in the Active Style she pulled the Active Blade off her back plate and pulled open its Hand Author. [COME ON A SLASH SHAKE HANDS!] She scanned the Active Ring. [ACTIVE! SLASH STRIKE!] Red lightning covered the Active Blade as Symbol jumped into the air. “Red Slash!” with that she stabbed the Active Blade into the button and Bob roared in pain from it.

“Sunset! Go to the next one!” shouted Dante as his boots were struggling to find grip as he was forced back.

“I’m on it!” shouted Symbol as she ran to the next glowing red button. She added the Boost and Defend Rings to her right glove before pressing the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] She scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [BOOST DEFEND PLEASE!] Symbol held her right arm out to the right and the two magic circle unfolded before moving through her. Symbol hit the right Shift Lever once more. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] Then she scanned her glove again making purple magical energy run into the Boost Grieves. [BOOST MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol jumped into the air and hit the right Shift Lever four more times. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO! VERY NICE!] Then Symbol scanned the Boost and Defend Rings once more. [BOOST DEFEND MAGIC! THE BEST!] She twisted around and jumped down off a platform of purple magic that appeared in the air. “Air Step!” she rocketed down and slammed her boots into the glowing red button, shutting it down.

Bob Barbas gave a loud roar of pain as his attack on Dante stopped.

“Leave this to me!” shouted Dante as he ran forwards towards the floating head thing Phantom.

“If you say so,” shrugged Symbol.

“I do!” shouted Dante.

“I never said you didn’t!” snapped back Symbol.

Dante punched the Nephilim Ring into the slot at the bottom of the Rebellion Blade’s hilt. [ONE!] The mouth opened to show a single red and blue dot. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Dante’s Rebellion Blade glowed as he pressed the trigger. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] The Rebellion Blade’s eye’s flashed as it was shrouded in red and blue energy. “High Time!” Dante slashed upwards with the Rebellion Blade, cutting into Bob Barbas and making sparks explode from his body.

Dante quickly punched the Nephilim Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] Red and blue magical energy covered his boot as he came shooting down like a comet. “Helm Breaker!” shouted Dante as he slammed the back of his shin down onto Bob Barbas making more sparks explode from him as the Phantom yelled out in pain.

Bob Barbas let loose a pulse of red energy as he tried to knock Dante back, but the Kamen Rider jumped back, avoiding the energy before closing the distance and getting back into sword range.

Dante slotted the Nephilim Ring into the Rebellion Blade’s slot again. [SIX!] The single red and blue circle in the mouth turned into six. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Dante pulled back the Rebellion Blade as he started to stab Bob Barbas over and over with rapid strikes that move so fast it looked like he had several arms. This action created a storm of sparks from the Phantom.

“My turn Dante!” shouted Symbol as she ran past her brother and switched the Active Ring for the Burst Ring and hit the left Shift Lever. [MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] Symbol scanned her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [BURST PLEASE!] The burst magic circle appeared behind her and moved through Symbol. [CAST THE SPELL!] She pressed down on the left Shift Lever once. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] Scanned her left glove. [BURST! C RANK SPELL!] Four sparks appeared in the air around her and ignited into fireballs that shot forwards and exploded in Bob’s face making micro explosions go off around him.

Then a lock on point for a Boost Jump or Angel Lift appeared in Bob’s eye.

[SET!] [OPEN!] [O-S-I-R-I-S!] Dante transformed into the Angel Style.

“Please don’t tell me we have to do what I think we have to,” muttered Symbol.

[HOOK MODE!] “Segue into this!” shouted Dante as he grabbed his sister, locked onto Bob’s eye and pulled them both into it.

“DANTE WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU DOING?!” screamed Symbol as they both went into the eye.

Only to find themselves on the docks.

“What-?! How did we get back there?!” shouted Symbol in utter shock at this.

“After everything we’ve been through, this should not surprise you,” groaned Dante to his sister.

“Go point,” muttered Symbol as a horde of Lesser Blade Phantom’s burst from the ground.

Dante ran forwards as he punched the Nephilim Ring into the slot at the base of the Rebellion Blade. [THREE!] The sword’s mouth opened to show three red and blue circles. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Dante slashed one of the Lesser Blade Phantom’s three times with the Rebellion Blade making sparks come from its body before it fell over and exploded.

Seeing that he was being surrounded, Dante switched the Nephilim Ring for the Angel Ring and slammed it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] He turned his wrist back to make his Driver’s gate close before turning it forwards, having his Driver’s gate spring back open. [OPEN!] The angel magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him. [O-S-I-R-I-S!] Dante emerged in Angel Style as he pulled the Osiris Scythe off his back and punched the Angel Ring into the back of his scythe’s blade. [ONE!] The blade opened to show a single light blue circle. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Dante started spinning around, cutting into five of the Lesser Blade Phantoms making sparks come from their bodies until they exploded.

Seeing that there were more Lesser Blade Phantoms incoming, Dante pressed down on the Osiris Scythe’s trigger. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Light blue magical energy raced up the Osiris Scythe’s shaft and into the blade as Dante spun around, unleashing a circle of light blue magical energy that surged outwards, cutting the Phantoms in half before all of them exploded.

Dante spun around and used the Osiris Scythe’s shaft to block three blades from three more Lesser Blade Phantoms and throw them off. He punched the Angel Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [KICK STRIKE GO!] Light blue magical energy gathered around his right boot. “Karma!” shouted Dante as he spin kicked all three of them. A explosion ignited across the three Lesser Blade Phantoms as they fell over sparking and exploded.

Dante jumped into the air as another Lesser Blade Phantom charged under him. He pressed the Angel Ring into the back of the Osiris Scythe’s blade. [THREE!] The blade closed and opened to reveal an extra two light blue circles. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Dante extended the Osiris Scythe down and used it as a hook to pull the Lesser Blade Phantom into the air while splitting it in half.

Seeing that there were another three Lesser Blade Phantoms waiting for him to land back on the ground, Dante pressed down on the Osiris Scythe’s trigger. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Light blue magical energy ran up the Osiris Scythe handle and into its blade as Dante tore it through the ground. “Rake!” sending a pillar of light blue feather constructs at the Lesser Blade Phantoms which tore them to pieces.

Dante landed back on the ground. “Woah!” he was forced to duck under a slash from another Lesser Blade Phantom, while on the ground her punched the Angel Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [KICK STRIKE GO!] Light blue magical energy covered his right boot as he backflipped off the ground, kicking the Phantom in the face as he did so. “Rake!” shouted Dante as the Lesser Blade Phantom was sent shooting into the air with sparks coming from its body until it explode in the air.

Dante saw another four Lesser Blade Phantom’s charging at him, so he punched the Angel Ring into the back of the Osiris Scythe’s blade. [SIX!] Which opened to reveal six light blue dots. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Dante boosted forwards with the light blue wind and spun around, driving the Osiris Scythe’s blade into the three Lesser Blade Phantoms and cutting each of them in pair. Light blue lightning sparked between the halves until the Phantoms each went up in an explosion.

Dante slammed the Angel Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [KICK STRIKE GO!] He covered himself in the light blue wind and jumped forwards. “Streak!” he kicked another of the Lesser Blade Phantom’s in the chest and sent it flying backwards into another Lesser Blade Phantom where both of them went up in an explosion.

“We have here some truly shocking footage of the terrorist, known as Dante, at the Bellevue Pier recently,” come Bob’s voice from everywhere and yet nowhere at the same time.

“That’s going get really annoying, really fast!” growled Dante. He was forced to jump back as another Lesser Blade Phantom slashed at him, he pressed down on the trigger of the Osiris Scythe. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] The Osiris Scythe was covered in light blue feather constructs that came off the blade and followed Dante. “Streak!” he hacked through over a dozen Lesser Blade Phantoms in less than a second before sparks came from their bodies and they exploded.

Dante dodged away from another three Lesser Blade Phantoms and punched the Angel Ring into the back of the Osiris Scythe’s blade. [FIVE!] Which then opened to reveal five light blue circles. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Dante shot forwards and spun in a circle, cutting three Lesser Blade Phantoms with the Osiris Scythe and ending on a strong downwards slash to a fourth Lesser Blade Phantom. All four of the Phantoms had sparks coming off their bodies until they each exploded.

Dante jumped into the air then pulled Ebony and Ivory from their holsters before opening fire on the Lesser Blade Phantom’ bellow him. Dante down both of their triggers as two rings of light blue magical energy were pulled into each of the hand cannons. Then a ring of white energy was pulled into Ivory while a ring of black energy was pulled into Ebony. [EBONY AND IVORY STRIKE!] Dante let go of the triggers as the hand cannons both sounded off. Out of Ebony and Ivory flew a pair of bullets with a light blue drill effect around them as they circled each other. “Falling Wrath!” shouted Dante as the bullets tore through five Lesser Blade Phantoms.

“So what is know about this Dante?” Bob continued to blather on.

Said Kamen Rider landed back on the ground as he blocked a slash with the Osiris Scythe and pressed the Angel Ring into the back of its blade. [TWO!] The blade opened to show a pair of light blue circles. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Dante jumped into the air before landing behind a squad of Lesser Blade Phantoms and spun the Osiris Scythe line a vertical propeller, this made a vacuum affect that pulled the Lesser Blade Phantoms into the scythe as Dante reverse directions and sliced them to pieces which then went up in four powerful explosions.

Dante leaned back. “That was close!” a Lesser Blade Phantom’s sword passed over him as Dante pressed the Angel Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [KICK STRIKE GO!] Light blue wind covered both of his boots as Dante used the left boot to kick the Lesser Blade Phantom into the air. “Prop!” Dante kicked the ground and shot past the Lesser Blade Phantom in a blue streak. “Shredder!” he spun around and kicked the Phantom back into the ground which caused it to explode from the damage.

Dante landed back on the ground and found himself surrounded by Lesser Blade Phantoms. He slammed the Angel Ring into the back of the Osiris Scythe’s blade as he used the shaft to lock up several Lesser Blade Phantom’s sword. [FOUR!] Dante forced the Lesser Blade Phantoms to back off has the scythe’s blade opened and showed four light blue circles. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Dante crotched as light blue wind gathered around him and then jumped into the air while spinning. The Osiris scythe generated powerful light blue wind that pulled the Lesser Blade Phantoms into the air, letting Dante cut into them repeatedly until they each exploded.

Dante slammed back into the ground and looked around when he saw what had to be thirty Lesser Blade Phantoms closing the distance. He slammed his glove down on the Osiris Scythe’s trigger. [ANGEL SCYTHE STRIKE!] Light blue magical energy surged up the shaft as Dante spun around. “Raze!” this created a circle of light blue magical energy that surged outwards after surrounding Dante and cut the Lesser Blade Phantoms that had been charging at him to pieces making each of them go up in an explosion.

However, Dante saw that the Lesser Blade Phantoms at the front had protected the Lesser Blade Phantoms at the back. He slammed his Angel Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [KICK STRIKE GO!] Dante covered his right leg in the light blue wind as he spun around. “Raze!” this fired a circle of the light blue wind that expanded around Dante and cut the Lesser Blade Phantoms to pieces making them explode.

“Several people have come forward and investigators have pieces together a shocking history of violence,” Bob Barbas continued to drone on as if either Symbol or Dante cared what he said.

[MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] Symbol changed the Burst Ring for the Swift Ring and scanned it across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author after pressing the left Shift Lever. [SWIFT PLEASE!] The swift magic circle appeared over her helmet and she jumped up through it. [DASH AWAY!] Symbol transformed into the Swift Style and landed back on the ground as she drew the Swift Dagger then pulled open its Hand Author. [COME ON A HIT SHAKE HANDS!] Symbol dodged another slash as she scanned her left glove across the Swift Dagger’s Hand Author. [SWIFT! STAB STRIKE!] Yellow magical energy covered the weapon as Symbol stabbed the three Lesser Blade Phantoms that had been attacking her with enough speed for it to look like she had multiple arms. “Swift Barrage!” shouted Symbol right before the Phantoms exploded.

Symbol jumped back and saw that she was surrounded. “No room to run, so I’ll have to go up,” she added the Wing and Sniper Rings to her right index and ring fingers before pressing the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] Then she scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [WING SNIPER PLEASE!] The two magic circles appeared in the air and Symbol jumped up through them, emerging in the Swift Wing Sniper Style and flapped the Flight Wings several times to keep in the air as she pressed the right Shift Lever three times. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] Symbol scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [WING SNIPER MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol gave the Flight Wings a strong flap and fired several feathers that took aim and transformed into a rain of light blue beams that smashed into the Phantom and caused them to explode.

“At age eight he attacked and killed the head nurse at St Lamia Orphanage. She was described as a sweet old lady who particularly enjoyed working with the children and took great joy in it.”

Symbol spiralled up through as air as she pressed the right Shift Lever once. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] Then she scanned her right glove. [WING MAGIC PLEASE!] Both of her Flight Wings were covered in silver energy as she flew down and used them to cut through ten Lesser Blade Phantoms, cutting five in half with each of her wings. She shot back into the air as they explode, preventing the rest of the Lesser Blade Phantoms from reaching her.

Symbol turned in the air as she struck the right Shift Lever four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO! VERY NICE!] Both of the Flight Wings glowed with silver magic energy. [WING SNIPER MAGIC! THE BEST!] Symbol pulled them back and flapped them strongly, firing a silver spinning energy crescent that sawed its way through ten Lesser Blade Phantoms. “Wing Cutter!” shouted Symbol as the Phantoms sparked before they each went up in an explosion.

Symbol pressed the left Shift Lever twice. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] Then she swiped her left glove. [SWIFT! B RANK SPELL!] Her body ignited with yellow magical energy as she vanished into thin air. Several seconds later she appeared back in the air and flicked the Swift Dagger. Sparks flew from five Lesser Blade Phantoms as the delay on the damage was lifted, they fell over and exploded.

Symbol pressed the right Shift Lever twice, making the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author flip back to the right. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] She scanned her right glove across it. [SNIPER MAGIC PLEASE!] The Sniper Shooter appeared in her glove as she landed back on the ground. Three Lesser Blade Phantoms charged at her, all in a line. “So stupid,” muttered Symbol as she pulled the trigger. The Sniper Shooter fired a blue bullet that streaked through the air and tore through all three of the Lesser Blade Phantoms making them fall over and explode.

“Between the ages of eleven and fifteen he broke out of no less than eight youth detention facilities. Often mounting brutal, humiliating attacks against the prison officers just doing their jobs.”

Symbol pressed the left Shift Lever twice. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] Then she scanned the Swift Ring. [SWIFT! B RANK SPELL!] Symbol quickly pressed the left Shift Lever four more times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO! VERY NICE!] Symbol scanned her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [SWIFT! S RANK SPELL! THE BEST!] Her body was covered in yellow magical energy as she flew around ten Lesser Blade Phantoms at extremely high speeds making her look like a yellow, silver and blue circle. “Swift Attack!” shouted Symbol as she curved inwards and punched one of the Phantom’s across the face before joining the circle again. She repeated this several times until the ten Lesser Blade Phantoms exploded.

“Time to change things up a bit,” shouted Symbol as she switched the Wing and Sniper Rings for the Arrow and Blade Rings before pressing the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] Symbol scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [ARROW BLADE PLEASE!] The arrow and blade magic circles appeared above her helmet then fell through her. The Buzz Bow appeared in Symbol’s right glove as she hit the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] Symbol scanned her right glove. [BLADE MAGIC PLEASE!] She pulled back the Buzz Bow as it was covered in red magic energy and swept it to the side, firing six buzz saws that cut through three Lesser Blade Phantom which then exploded.

“Between sixteen and seventeen he became involved in gangs, drug peddling and is believed to be responsible for over a dozen homicides.”

Symbol saw the three Lesser Blade Phantoms were closing in on her and pressed the right Shift Lever down once. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] She scanned her right glove as she jumped over one of the Lesser Blade Phantoms. [ARROW MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol landed on the ground and pulled back the Buzz Bow’s arrow before firing six blasts of wind that shaped themselves into buzz saws, cutting through the Lesser Blade Phantoms and causing them to explode after sparking for several seconds.

Symbol then hit the left Shift Lever once, making the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author flip to the left. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] Symbol closed her right glove as she scanned the Swift Ring. [SWIFT! C RANK SPELL!] Symbol threw her right glove out to the side and from it came five orbs of yellow magical energy that shot forwards and slammed into a pair of Lesser Blade Phantoms making both of them explode.

“GAH!” shouted Symbol as she was struck across the back by another Lesser Blade Phantom, she slammed her glove down on the right Shift Lever twice. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] Then scanned her right glove. “Your gonna pay for that!” she shouted as he spun around. [BLADE MAGIC PLEASE!] From the Buzz Bow six blasts of red magical energy were fired that took on the shape of buzzsaws. They slammed into the Lesser Blade Phantoms and in a shower of sparks cut through it, causing the Phantom to go up in a giant explosion.

“Between sixteen and seventeen he became involved in gangs, drug peddling and is believed to be responsible for over a dozen homicides.”

“Almost finish!” growled Symbol as she pressed the right Shift Lever down four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO! VERY NICE!] Symbol scanned her right glove. [ARROW BLADE MAGIC! THE BEST!] Red magical energy gathered around the Buzz Bow as Symbol fired six buzz saws that were covered in red magical energy. “Blade Cutter!” shouted Symbol as she fired six small buzz saws that were covered in red magic energy. They arced into the air as the red energy formed into a construct of a giant buzzsaw cutting through ten Lesser Blade Phantoms.

“How many of these Phantoms does Bob have?!” demanded Symbol as she pressed the left Shift Lever once. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] She swiped her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [SWIFT! C RANK SPELL!] Symbol closed her right glove before opening it and firing five orbs of yellow magic energy that slammed into six Lesser Blade Phantoms and exploded destroying each of them in flashes of yellow light as well as loud explosions.

Suddenly, Symbol saw that she had been surrounded. “Bad move!” shouted Symbol as she struck the left Shift Lever four times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO! VERY NICE!] Symbol scanned her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [SWIFT! S RANK SPELL! THE BEST!] Five orbs of yellow magical energy appeared around Symbol before exploding into a storm of yellow bullets that caused all twenty of the Lesser Blade Phantoms around her to explode.

“Is it just me, or were those Phantoms much more fragile than usual?” Symbol muttered to herself.

“And worst of all he is also a well known cruiser in the seedier districts of the city rampantly spreading sexual disease of the unholy kind,” Bob Barbas finally finished his rather long list of complaints about Dante.

“And ain't that the best kind Bob?” shouted Dante.

“You are not helping!” hissed Symbol as they suddenly found themselves back in the dome room with Bob Barbas the head Phantoms.

Bob gave a long and loud whole as he charged a circle of purple energy around himself before firing it out in a trio of beams that swept around the room in a circle.

“RUN!” shouted Symbol as she hit the left Shift Lever twice. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] Then Symbol swiped her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [SWIFT! B RANK SPELL!] Her body was covered in yellow magical energy as she sprinted away from the beams.

“I’m with you on that one!” shouted Dante as he slammed the Angel Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [KICK STRIKE GO!] He was covered in light blue wind and he sprinted off, following his sister.

This worked for about a minute before their spells began to wear off.

“This isn’t working!” shouted Dante.

Symbol looked around for several seconds. “I’ve got a plan! I’ll hold the beams off! You hit the three buttons!”

“Ok!” shouted Dante as he went on ahead.

Symbol switched the Swift Ring for the Giga Ring and pressed the left Shift Lever. [MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] Then Symbol scanned the Giga Ring across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [GIGA PLEASE!] The giga magic circle appeared under Symbol’s boots and rose up through her. [BREAK THROUGH!] Symbol spun around as one of the beams approached and pressed the left Shift Lever down three times. [MAGICAL TOUCH SPELL!] Symbol swiped her left glove. [GIGA A RANK SPELL!] Her body was covered in green magic energy as she crossed her arms and braced for impact. “ARGH!” she grunted in pain as the beam made contact. She slid backwards before her boots found purchase on the ground.

“No choice!” Symbol used her left glove to press the left Shift Lever four times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO! VERY NICE!] Then she scanned the Giga Ring. [GIGA! S RANK SPELL! THE BEST!] The green magical energy around her body raged. “Giga Embodiment!” shouted Symbol as she threw her arms out and the magical energy surged outwards into a dome, forcing the first beam back as well as the other two as they were linked.

Dante switched the Angel Ring for the Eryx Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] He turned it back then forwards making his Driver’s gate close and open. [OPEN!] The eryx magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver as he ran through it, transforming into the Eryx Style. [E-R-Y-X!] As Dante ran towards the first button he pressed the Eryx Ring into the slot on the back of the right Eryx Gauntlet. [FIVE!] The holographic dice warped in and spun before stopping on a five. [FIST STRIKE!] Dante jumped into the air as red flames flickered around the right Eryx Gauntlet. He pressed down on the trigger inside the left Eryx Gauntlet. [FIST STRIKE!] Crimson flames burst from the left Eryx Gauntlet and formed a construct on the right Eryx Gauntlet around Dante as he went shooting down before slamming it into the button.

Bob gave a bellow of pain as he kept the beams up.

Symbol saw the dome around her getting smaller, so she pressed the left Shift Lever once. [MAGICAL TOUCH SPELL!] Then scanned her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [GIGA C RANK SPELL!] Symbol pressed the left Shift Lever four times as her left fist glowed with light green magical energy. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO! VERY NICE!] Then scanned her left glove again. [GIGA! S RANK SPELL! THE BEST!] Green magical energy surged around her left fist. “Giga Fist!” shouted Symbol as she pull her arm back and punched the beam making it go flying backwards before stopping and moving towards her but Symbol was able to hold it back with her left fist.

Dante had by this time reached the second button. He jumped into the air and pressed the trigger inside the left Eryx Gauntlet. [FIST STRIKE!] Red flames gathered around him and formed a construct of the right Eryx Gauntlet as Dante went shooting down and slammed the button.

Bob gave a roar of pain but kept up his attacked as he tried once more to kill Symbol with the three purple beams.

Speak of who, she added the Punch and Drill Rings to her right glove and pressed the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] The Wizard Driver’s Hand Author turned to the right as Symbol scanned her right glove across it. [PUNCH DRILL PLEASE!] The punch and drill magic circles appeared under her boots and rose up through her, transforming Symbol into the Giga Punch Drill Style as she pressed the right Shift Lever once. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] Symbol scanned her right glove again. [PUNCH MAGIC PLEASE!] Her left fist caught on fire as she pulled it back as punched the purple beam.

For several seconds she was able to hold the beam back before it started to force her back. “Need more power,” grunted Symbol as she hit the right Shift Leer four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO! VERY NICE!] She swiped her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [PUNCH DRILL MAGIC! THE BEST!] Symbol gathered energy inside her right glove as she forced her left fist forwards, pushing the beam back a few feet. “Magma Smash!” shouted Symbol as burning red energy covered her right fist and she punched the ground. Out of which came a vertical blade of magma that roared forwards and smashed into the beam. Sparks flew from the heat as the magma blade held the beam back for about a minute.

Dante had reached the final button that was glowing by this time and pressed the trigger inside the left Eryx Gauntlet. [FIST STRIKE!] Dante jumped into the air and came shooting down as red flames formed a construct of the left Eryx Gauntlet around him. Dante hit the ground and slammed into the button.

Bob gave a howl of pain as his head turned blue and the three purple beams spluttered before cutting off.

Symbol saw this and drew the Giga Axe before transforming it into the Giga Spear and pulling open its Hand Author. [COME ON A STAB SHAKE HANDS!] Symbol scanned the Giga Ring across the Giga Spear’s Hand Author. [GIGA! STAB STRIKE!] She pulled back the Giga Spear as green magical energy raged around it. “Piercing Giga!” Symbol pulled back her arm and threw the Giga Spear. It impacted Bob’s face and exploded violently.

Dante switched the Eryx Ring for the Nephilim Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] Dante turned his wrist back and then forwards to make his Driver’s gate close before opening. [OPEN!] The nephilim magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him. [N-E-P-H-I-L-I-M!] Dante emerged in the Nephilim Style. He pulled the Rebellion Blade off his back plate and punched the Nephilim Ring into the slot at the bottom of its handle. [THREE!] The mouth of the Rebellion Blade opened to reveal a trio of red and blue circles. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Dante ran up to Bob and slashed him across the face three times making sparks fly and forcing Bob Barbas to grunt with each slash.

Dante then pressed down on the Rebellion Blade’s trigger. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] The eyes of the Rebellion Blade flashed red and blue as energy of the same color cloaked the blade. “Hacker!” shouted Dante as he slashed Bob Barbas across the face three times with the energized weapon. Each of the slashes ignited an explosion across the Phantoms face.

Finally, Dante punched the Nephilim Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] He covered both of his boots in red and blue energy. “Hacker!” before spinning around and firing a trio of spin kicks that caused three explosions across Bob’s face.

Dante punched the Nephilim Ring into the slot at the base of the Rebellion Blade’s handle again. [SIX!] The mouth closed before opening again to show six red and blue circles. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Dante pulled back the Rebellion Blade and stabbed Bob Barbas in the face multiple times making sparks explode from each impact point.

Then Dante punched the Nephilim Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] Red and blue magical energy covered his right boot as Dante jumped into the air and delivered several energized kicks to Bob’s face. “Trillion Stabs!” shouted Dante as sparks explode from Bob’s face while he yelled in pain.

At that moment Dante had to jump back as the Giga Spear came shooting through the air and impacted Bob’s face.

That was a mistake.

Bob charged both green and blue energy around himself before firing. A giant beam of blue digital energy slammed into Dante holding him in place before two green beams of digital energy slammed into him from either side and ignited a massive explosion around Dante as they two energies detonated.

“DANTE!” screamed Symbol as her smoking brother fell to the ground with blue and green lightning cracking over his body and sparks coming off his armour as Dante tried desperately to hold onto his transformation.

Symbol glared at Bob Barbas and snarled. “Your gonna pay for that!” she switched the Giga Ring for the Active Ring then pressed the left Shift Lever. [MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] Symbol scanned her left glove. [ACTIVE PLEASE!] The active magic circle appeared to her left and moved through Symbol, transforming her into the Active Style. [LET’S GO!] She ran forwards and pressed the left Shift Lever once. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] Symbol scanned her left glove again. [ACTIVE! C RANK SPELL!] Red lightning gathered around her glow as she threw it forwards, firing a small ball of red lightning at Bob’s face. It hit him and exploded, making the yellow energy that he had been building up vanish.

Bob Barbas gave a loud roar as he built up blue digital energy around him. Symbol added the Slasher and Aqua Rings to her right glove and pressed the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] Then scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [SLASHER AQUA PLEASE!] She jumped through the two magic circles, avoiding the giant beam of blue digital energy that was fired at her. Then Symbol hit the right Shift Lever twice. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] Before swiping her right glove. [AQUA MAGIC PLEASE!] Blue water was pulled from the air and covered the Slasher Tidal Claws as Symbol threw them forwards, firing six crescent of ocean blue water that smashed into Bob’s face and made sparks explode from it.

Bob was far to caught up in his rage and anger to even think about turning the buttons back on as he fired another pair of green beams that tried to smash Symbol into paste between them. Key word; tried. Symbol hit the right Shift Lever four times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO! VERY NICE!] Then she scanned her right glove once more. [SLASHER AQUA MAGIC THE BEST!] Water was pulled from the air and covered the six Slasher Tidal Claws as Symbol slashed with them firing the water in six ocean blue crescents that turned into a cross. “Aqua Slash!” shouted Symbol as the attack tore through the narrow parts of the beams, making the parts which were about to hit her vanish. The attack slammed into Bob’s face making explosions ignite across it.

Bob Barbas gave a loud roar as purple digital energy gathered around him before being fired out in three beams in a triangle formation. Symbol replied by switching the Active Ring for the Burst Ring and pressing the left Shift Lever. [MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] Then she scanned the Burst Ring. [BURST PLEASE!] The burst magic circle appeared behind Symbol and moved through her, transforming her into the Burst Style. [CAST THE SPELL!] She then pulled out the Burst Wand and pulled open its Hand Author. [COME ON A CAST SHAKE HANDS!] Symbol scanned the Burst Ring. [BURST! CAST STRIKE!] Purple magical energy built up in a large ball in front of the Burst Wand. “Burst Beam!” shouted Symbol as she fired the orb in the form of a giant beam that smashed into Bob, right before his own burst beam hit Symbol from the side and sent her flying through the air.

“ARGH!” shouted Symbol as she landed on the ground, clutching her ribs in pain. Then she saw Bob charging up blue energy around himself. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] Symbol added the Dust and Mirror Rings to her right glove, then pressed the right Shift Lever followed by scanning her right glove. [DUST MIRROR PLEASE!] The two magic circles appeared behind her and moved through Symbol before she hit the right Shift Lever twice more. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] Symbol scanned her right glove again. [MIRROR MAGIC PLEASE!] A silver mirror appeared in front of her and blocked the attack before it started to quickly crack.

It looked like the mirror was going to hold when Bob Barbas charged up purple digital energy and three beams appeared from him in a triangle formation then slammed closed around Symbol. “ARGH!” shouted Symbol as an explosion ignited around her and sent was sent flying back. Doing her best to hold onto her true form and not transform back into her human form.

“SUNSET!” shouted Dante as his sister landed on the ground. “Your gonna pay for that!” he swore at Bob Barbas.

The Phantom just chuckled. “Your sister said the same thing and she only lasted that long since I was going easy on her! I won’t make that mistake again! What makes you think you’ll do any better?!”

“Because I have this!” Dante side the Trigger Ring onto his left middle finger ready to transform.

“What’s that supposed to be?” demanded Bob Barbas.

“Your doom,” replied Dante as he punched the Trigger Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [TRIGGER!] Dante turned his wrist back then forward making his Driver’s gate close before opening again. [DEVIL GO!] Dante cross and uncross his arms as the energy construct of the Phantom roared from his Driver blocking a blue energy beam. [DE-DE-DE-DEVIL!] The construct moved behind Dante and wrapped its arms around him, merging with Dante in a flash of red light, transforming Dante into his Devil Trigger Style.

“Change all you want, you’ll never beat me!” spat out Bob Barbas.

“We’ll see about that!” shouted Dante as he punched the Trigger Ring into the back of the Rebellion Magnum. [TWO! DEVIL!] A blood red holographic two appeared in front of the Magnum’s skull. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Red magical energy started to charge within the Rebellion Magnum as Dante held down the trigger. [DEVIL!] Ten rings of blood red magic energy were pulled into the Rebellion Magnum. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante let go of the trigger. “Death Coil!” out of the Rebellion Magnum roared a massive beam of red energy that looped around. Bob fired a wall of yellow digital energy that had a single hole in it. The beam looped through the hole and smashed into Bob’s face making an explosion detonate across it.

Bob gave a roar of pain as he charged up blue and green energy. “Remember this?!” he shouted as he fired a beam of blue energy that trapped Dante before two beam of green energy started to close in on Dante from the side. However thanks to the power from the Devil Trigger Style, Dante was still able to move and punch the Trigger Ring into the back of the Rebellion Magnum. [THREE! DEVIL!] The two morphed into a flame red three. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] The green beams closed in as Dante held down the trigger of the Rebellion Magnum. [DEVIL!] Ten rings of red energy appeared in the air and were pulled into the Rebellion Magnum’s barrel. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante let go of the trigger. “Hacker!” out of the Rebellion Magnum roared three red beams, two of them smashed through the green beams and the last pushed back the blue beam. Two of the red beams pincered around and slammed into Bob Barbas from either side just as the three beam made contact. Bob Barbas roared in pain as explosions were denoted across his face from the attack.

“Time to end this!” snarled out Dante as he punched the Trigger Ring into the back of the Rebellion Magnum again. [SIX! DEVIL!] The flame red three doubled, turning into a blood red six. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] The outlines of the Rebellion Magnum started to glow as it was charged with red energy, Dante held down the trigger. [DEVIL!] Ten rings of red energy were pulled from the air into the barrel of the Rebellion Magnum. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante let go of the trigger. “Trillion Stabs!” he yelled as the Rebellion Magnum fired over a hundred beams of red energy that smashed into Bob’s face igniting explosions across it.

“Not enough? Then try this!” Dante pressed the Trigger Ring into the back of the Rebellion Magnum again. [ONE! DEVIL!] The blood red six morphed into an earth red one. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante took aim with the Rebellion Magnum as he held down the trigger. [DEVIL!] Ten rings of red energy appeared in the air and were pulled into the Rebellion Magnum’s barrel. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante jumped into the air as he let go of the trigger. “Helm Breaker!” shouted Dante as he fired a massive beam of red energy down at Bob that slammed into him and made sparks explode across its body from the damage of the attack.

“Now it's time to end this!” yelled Dante as he punched the Trigger Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [GO! DEVIL!] Red energy gathered around his right leg. [KICK STRIKE!] Dante went shooting down. “Devil Strike!” he yelled as his boot made contact with Bob’s face and ignited a giant explosions.

When the smoke cleared, Dante could see a lock on point n one of Bob’s eyes. [SET!] [OPEN!] [O-S-I-R-I-S!] He transformed into the Angel Style. [HOOK MODE!] Then transformed the Osiris Scythe into the Angel Lift, hooking onto Bob’s eye and pulling himself in. “This is hard hitting news, Bob!” he shouted.

[MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] [ACTIVE PLEASE!] [LET’S GO!] “Wait for me!” shouted a recovered Symbol. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] [BOOST DEFEND PLEASE!] She ran forwards. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] [BOOST MAGIC PLEASE!] In a pulse of purple magic she jumped after Dante.

“It has been uncovered that Dante has been joined by his sister Sunset. She was separated from him at birth for her own protection only to become just as bad as her older brother,” stated Bob Barbas. “She recently assisted him in an attack on the Virility Factory, making of the world's number one soft drink, that resulted in the factory being utterly destroyed.”

“You say that like it’s a bad thing!” shouted Symbol as several Blade Phantom’s burst from the ground. She switched the Active Ring for the Giga Ring and pressed the left Shift Lever. [MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] Symbol scanned her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [GIGA PLEASE!] The giga magic circle appeared under her boots and rose up through her, knocking several Blade Phantom’s back. [BREAK THROUGH!] Symbol blocked a slash with her right forearm guard as she pressed the left Shift Lever twice. [MAGICAL TOUCH SPELL!] Symbol scanned the Giga Ring across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [GIGA B RANK SPELL!] She jumped into the air and covered her right glove in green energy, slamming it down on a Blade Phantom and making it explode.

Symbol landed back on the ground and was hit in the back by another Blade Phantom. Thanks to her thick armour no damage was done as she hit the left Shift Lever four times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO! VERY NICE!] Symbol swiped her left glove. [GIGA! S RANK SPELL! THE BEST!] Green magical energy roared around her right glove, she brought it down on the ground and sent a line of glowing green energy through the ground that cut through three Blade Phantoms making them explode.

Symbol added the Punch and Drill Rings to her right glove and pressed the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] She scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [PUNCH DRILL PLEASE!] The punch and drill magic circles appeared under her boots then rose up through her, transforming Symbol into the Giga Punch Drill Style. Symbol saw three Blade Phantoms running at her and pressed the right Shift Lever twice. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] She pulled back her left fist as she scanned her right glove. [DRILL MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol punch the ground and out of it burst a wall of drills that launched all three Blade Phantoms into the air where they exploded.

Symbol jumped into the air as she pressed the right Shift Lever four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO! VERY NICE!] Symbol swiped her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [PUNCH DRILL MAGIC! THE BEST!] Symbol landed behind her wall as she rammed both of the Punch Drillers into it. “Wall Charge!” shouted Symbol as with a grunt she pulled the wall from the ground and used it as a club to send three Blade Phantoms flying into the air where they exploded.

Symbol turned around, just as she was slashed in the face plate by another Blade Phantom. “Gah!” muttered Symbol in pain as sparks came from her ace plate. She staggered back several steps as she pressed the right Shift Lever once. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] Then scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [PUNCH MAGIC PLEASE!] Red flames covered both of the Punch Drillers as she pulled her right fist back and punched the Phantom in the face, then gave it an uppercut before pulling it back down for a double punch to the face. All of these impacts drew sparks before the Blade Phantom exploded.

Symbol saw two more Blade Phantoms getting ready to attack and pressed the right Shift Lever four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO! VERY NICE!] She swiped her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [PUNCH DRILL MAGIC! THE BEST!] Red flames burst into being around both of the Puncher Drillers as the drills on Symbols knuckles started to spin. “Magma Smash!” shouted Symbol. Just as the Blade Phantoms were about to reach her she pulled back her right fist and drove it into the ground making a blade of magma burst from the ground, forcing the Blade Phantoms to skid to a halt. With her other fist she punched the blade and sent it shooting towards the Phantoms. They were too close and had to time to dodge as they were both turned to ash for the sheer heat and pressure of the blade.

“And they just starting killing people. He looked me in the eye at one point. It was terrifying. He definitely had pedophile eyes,” commented one witness.

Symbol saw several more Blade Phantoms running at her, she switched the Punch and Drill Rings for the Hammer and Quake Rings before pressing the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] Then Symbol scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [HAMMER QUAKE PLEASE!] The two magic circles appeared under her boots and rose up through her, transforming Symbol into the Giga Hammer Quake Style. Symbol blocked a slash from one of the Blade Phantoms with the shaft of the Piston Hammer as she struck the right Shift Lever twice. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] She swiped her right glove. [QUAKE MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol pulled the Piston Hammer back and slammed it onto the ground, unleashing a shockwave of orange magical energy that threw the Blade Phantoms back. Cracks spread through their bodies before all of them go up in explosions.

Symbol hit the right Shift Lever four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO! VERY NICE!] She scanned the Quake Ring across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [HAMMER QUAKE MAGIC! THE BEST!] Orange energy gathered around the Piston Hammer as Symbol spun it several times then raised it over her head. “Rock Shockwave!” roared Symbol as she slammed the Piston Hammer into the ground. Several rocks glowing with orange magical energy rose up around the Blade Phantoms and then rushed inwards, crushing the Phantoms between them and causing them all to explode.

Suddenly, Symbol saw another Blade Phantom running towards her with a sword ready, she pressed the right Shift Lever once. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] Then scanned her right glove. [HAMMER MAGIC PLEASE!] Black mana covered the piston Hammer as Symbol swung it around and slammed it into the side of the Blade Phantom’s face making it turn to dust on impact.

Symbol noticed another pair of Blade Phantoms running at her and pressed the right Shift Lever four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO! VERY NICE!] She scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [HAMMER QUAKE MAGIC! THE BEST!] Symbol pulled back the Piston Hammer as it was covered in a construct of blade spikes. “Spike Hammer!” shouted Symbol as she brought the Piston Hammer down, crushing one of the Blade Phantoms before spinning the hammer around to smash it into the side of a second Blade Phantom. Both of them exploded.

Symbol saw another three Blade Phantoms running towards her and hit the right Shift Lever three times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] Then she scanned her right glove. [HAMMER QUAKE MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol pulled back the Piston Hammer and slammed it into the ground making a wall of rock spikes to block the Blade Phantom’s charge.

Symbol changed the Hammer and Quake Rings for the Bombardment and Terra Rings before pressing the right Shift lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] She scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [BOMBARDMENT TERRA PLEASE!] The two magic circles appeared under her boots and rose up through her. Just as the wall broke down, Symbol pressed the right Shift Lever once. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] Then scanned her right glove. [BOMBARDMENT MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol took aim and fired a pair of blue orbs that rocketed towards the three Blade Phantoms and exploded with enough force to make them explode.

Symbol jumped into the air as she pressed the right Shift Lever three times. [MAGIC TOUCHIC GO!] Then she scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [BOMBARDMENT TERRA MAGIC PLEASE!] Symbol aimed both of the Chain Cannons then fired a pair of blue orbs followed by a barrage of shotguns shells that impacted the five Blade Phantoms running towards her, causing all of them to explode.

Only landed back on the ground only to be slashed across the back by another Blade Phantom that had jumped out of the ground behind her. “ARGH!” shouted Symbol as a few sparks came from her back plate, she hit the left Shift Lever once. [MAGICAL TOUCH SPELL!] Symbol spun around even as she scanned the Giga Ring. [GIGA C RANK SPELL!] Her right glove was covered in green magical energy as her fist impacted the Phantom and caused it to explode.

Symbol then drew the Giga Axe as she pulled open its Hand Author. [COME ON A SMASH SHAKE HANDS!] She scanned the Giga Ring across it. [GIGA SMASH STRIKE!] Green mana covered the Giga Axe. “Giga Strike!” she swung the Giga Axe across, cutting a glowing green line through five Blade Phantoms making all of them fall over with green lightning cracking over their bodies before they each exploded.

“I saw one girl, like, beg for her life. But, like, she said she was gonna kill her anyway. Then she did it, like, totally, added another witness.

Dante changed the Angel Ring for the Arbiter Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] Dante turned his wrist back then forwards making his Driver’s gate close and open. [OPEN!] The arbiter magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him. [A-R-B-I-T-E-R!] Dante pulled out the Arbiter Axe and used it to block a slash from a Blade Phantom as he punched the Arbiter Ring into the slot at the base of the axe’s handle. [FOUR!] The holographic dice appeared above the Arbiter Axe and spun before stopping on a four. [AXE STRIKE!] Three rings of red magical energy were pulled into the Arbiter Axe as Dante slammed it onto the ground. Out of which roared three rings of red energy that tore through all three of the Blade Phantoms that had been charging at him, causing them to explode.

Dante jumped into the air as another Blade Phantom passed under him, having been aiming to impale him with its sword. Dante pressed the Arbiter Ring into the base of the Arbiter Axe’s handle. [FIVE!] The dice appeared again and spun until it displayed an extra dot. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante came shooting down as he swung the Arbiter Axe down in an overhead strike that carved the Blade Phantom in half and both halves fell to the ground and turned to dust.

The Kamen Rider looked to the left and saw a Blade Phantom running at him, then he looked to the left, seeing another Blade Phantom running towards him. Dante waited and grabbed one of the Blade Phantoms before throwing it into the other Blade Phantom. While they were trying to get up, Dante punched the Arbiter Ring into the slot at the base of the Arbiter Axe. [TWO!] The holographic dice appeared and spun before stopping on a two. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante spun the Arbiter Axe before grabbing it in both hands and slamming it into the ground. Out of the impact point came two lines of red magical energy that threw both of the Phantoms into the air where they exploded.

Suddenly, Dante was hit across the back plate by another Blade Phantom. Being in Arbiter Style he was not damaged at all, so he kicked the Phantom back as he pressed the Arbiter Ring into the slot at the base of the Arbiter Axe’s handle. [ONE!] A single dot vanished from the dice above the Arbiter Axe. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante swung the axe around as red energy gathered along its blade. Dante swung it down, making the energy shoot off and form into an energy construct of an axe head that smashed through the Blade Phantom and made it explode.

Dante jumped back to avoid a slash from another Blade Phantom before kicking it back and punching the Arbiter Ring into the bottom of the Arbiter Axe’s handle again. [SIX!] The dice appeared and spun until it stopped on a six. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante swung the Arbiter Axe down in a two handed grip that sent a red energy wave along the ground that slammed into the five Blade Phantom which had been attacking him, making them all go up in a pillar of fire.

Suddenly, another four Blade Phantoms were charging at Dante from all four sides. He punched the Arbiter Ring into the slot at the base of the Arbiter Axe’s handle again. [FIVE!] The holographic dice appeared on a six before loosing a single dot. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante jumped into the air, leaving the Blade Phantoms to hit each other as he held down on the Arbiter Axe’s trigger. [AXE STRIKE!] Red magical energy surged up the Arbiter Axe’s handle and into the blade as Dante went shooting back down. “Drop!” shouted Dante as the energy formed into a construct of a second Arbiter Axe that followed the originals movements. Dante slammed the Arbiter Axe into the ground unleashing a blast of red mana that turned the Blade Phantom’s to dust.

At that moment Dante saw another Blade Phantom running towards him. He blocked the first slash with the Arbiter Axe and jumped into the air to avoid the second slash before punching the Arbiter Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] His right boot was covered in red magic. “Drop!” shouted Dante as he went shooting down, slamming his boot into the Blade Phantom making it explode.

“I saw one girl, like, beg for her life. But, like, she said she was gonna kill her anyway. Then she did it, like, totally, added another witness.

Dante saw three Blade Phantom about to slash him and blocked their attack with the shaft of the Arbiter Axe before shoving them back as he punched the Arbiter Ring into the bottom of the Arbiter Axe’s shaft. [THREE!] The holographic dice appeared and spun until it stopped on a three. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante pulled back the Arbiter Axe and struck all three of the Blade Phantoms with a single swing that caused them to crumble to dust.

Dante took a slash from another Blade Phantom across the chest plate before punching it back. “Shit!” muttered Dante as he saw that it had been joined by another two Blade Phantoms. He pressed down on the Arbiter Axe’s trigger. [AXE STRIKE!] Red energy roared up the Arbiter Axe’s shaft and into its blade. “Judgment!” shouted Dante. He swung the Arbiter Axe down on one Blade Phantom with the red magic forming an after image of the blade that doubled the damage. He hit the second Blade Phantom with an across swing and the third with an upwards swing. All three of the Blade Phantoms had red lightning sparking across their bodies before they fell over and exploded.

Dante saw another three Blade Phantoms running towards him and punched the Arbiter Ring into the left slot of his Driver. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] Red magical energy surged from Dante’s Driver into his right boot as he ran forwards and leapt through the air, kicking on off the Blade Phantoms with a flying kick. “Judgment!” shouted Dante as he landed back on the ground and hit the second Blade Phantom with a spin kick. He ducked a slash from a third Blade Phantom and nailed it in the face with a double mule kick. All three of the Phantoms exploded.

Dante noticed that ten Blade Phantoms were running towards him and punched the Arbiter Ring into the slot at the base of the Arbiter Axe’s handle. [SIX!] The dice appeared and the numbers on it doubled from last time. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante spun the Arbiter Axe around several times as he slammed his glove down on its trigger. [AXE STRIKE!] Red magic energy surged up the Arbiter Axe’s shaft from its handle to its blade as Dante spun it around and slammed it into the ground. “Blood Wave!” shouted Dante as a tidal wave of red magic appeared from the ground and swallowed up the Blade Phantoms before they had a chance to turn away and caused ten explosions to detonate from within the wave, signaling the Phantom’s deaths.

“Since that horrific attack, it has come to light that Dante and Sunset are involved in the terrorist organization called The Order,” began Bob Barbas.

Dante ignored Bob Barbas has he continued to bather on. He punched the Arbiter Ring into the slot at the base of the Arbiter Axe’s handle. [ONE!] This time when the holographic dice appeared it displayed a single dot. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante pressed down on the Arbiter Axe’s trigger. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante swung the Arbiter Axe around, red magical energy gathered around its blade while more red mana surged up its shaft, from its handle into the Arbiter Axe’s blade. “Flush!” roared Dante as he swung the Arbiter Axe down, firing a beam of red energy, the top of which took the shape of a spinning axe blade. It smashed into five Blade Phantoms and sawed straight through them, making red lightning spark over the halves before they exploded.

Suddenly, Dante stumbled as he was hit across the back plate by five more Blade Phantoms. With a snarl of anger Dante punched the Arbiter Ring into the left slot of his Driver. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] Dante covered his right boot in red magical energy as he spun around with a spin kick that firing a construct of a spinning axe head at the Blade Phantoms, cutting through them and causing them to explode.

Dante jumped into the air and came down after avoiding another slash from another Blade Phantom. He slotted the Arbiter Ring into the slot at the base of the Arbiter Axe’s handle. [FOUR!] The dice appeared again and spun until it stopped on a four. [AXE STRIKE!] Three rings of red magic energy were pulled into the Arbiter Axe’s blade as Dante spun it around and brought it down. This sent out three pulses of red magical energy that tore the Blade Phantom to bits.

Dante saw the last Blade Phantom running towards him and slammed the Arbiter Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] Red energy covered his right boot as he buried it into the Phantom’s gut, unleashing five pulses of red magic that tore the Phantom to ashes.

“I have a message for The Order. The whole world is looking for you. Every camera on every street corner. Every police force in the country and world wide. We will find you. We will destroy you. It’s only a matter of time. This is Bob Barbas from the Raptor News Network. Just doing god’s work.”

“OH WILL YOU SHUT UP!” shouted both siblings as they suddenly found themselves back in the room with Bob’s head.

Suddenly, the Raptor News Network theme song played as a screen opened in front of the Phantoms showing Bob’s human forming sitting behind his news desk in his office holding a sheet of paper.

Both Kamen Rider’s glanced at each other, confused.

“I interrupt this broadcast to bring you breaking news,” began Bob Barbas. “The terrorist organisations responsible for the recent attacks has been located and is being stormed by SWAT teams,” he stated.

“No!” shouted Dante as both Kamen Rider’s insides turned cold.

“It can’t be!” shouted Symbol.

“As I speak,” finished Bob Barbas.

The screen showed SWAT personal pouring out of their vans and storming into the building that Dante and Symbol knew The Order HQ was located in.

“Two of the terrorists identified in these images,” an image of Kate and Vergil appeared on the upper left corner of the screen. “Are known to be in the compound.”

“Bastards!” shouted Dante.

“A third and fourth terrorist have been cornered in another part of the city by a separate police raid,” Bob Barbas continued. The screen showed a picture of Dante’s human form and Sunset.

“Cornered my backside!” shouted Symbol.

“Rest assured. Those responsible will be brought to justice at any moment. Dead or Alive,” stated Bob Barbas. “This is Bob Barbas of the Raptor News Network. Just doing god’s work.”

The screen vanished, revealing Bob’s Phantom form again. “HAHAHAH! Your cornered! We got you! We’ll crush you! And you know what? We’ll do it live! You suck! We’re gonna do it live!” he shouted.

“NEVER GONNA HAPPEN!” shouted both Kamen Riders as they moved to engage.

Dante switched the Arbiter Ring for the Nephilim Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] Dante turned his wrist back, then forwards making his Driver’s gate close and open. [OPEN!] The nephilim magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him, transforming Dante into the Nephilim Style. [N-E-P-H-I-L-I-M!] Dante ran forwards as Bob charged up blue and green energy around himself. “Now sis!” he shouted to Symbol.

Symbol changed the Giga Ring for the Burst Ring and pressed the left Shift Lever. [MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] Then she scanned the Burst Ring across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [BURST PLEASE!] The burst magical circle appeared behind her and moved thought Symbol. [CAST THE SPELL!] She drew the Burst Wand and pulled its hand Author’s thumb, opening it. [COME ON A CAST SHAKE HANDS!] Symbol scanned the Burst Ring across it. [BURST! CAST STRIKE!] An orb of purple energy built up in front of the Burst Wand. “Burst Beam!” shouted Symbol as she made the orb collapse into a beam of purple magical energy that roared forwards and slammed into the beam of blue energy that Bob Barbas fired, the two cancelled each other out.

“Sis! Can you deal with the others?!” shouted Dante as Bob fired the green digital energy in a pair of beams that threatened to crush Dante.

“I’m on it!” raged Symbol as she slid the Dust and Mirror Rings onto her right glove as she pressed the right Shift Lever. [MAGIC TOUCHIE HENSHIN!] Symbol scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [DUST MIRROR PLEASE!] The two magic circles appeared behind her and moved through Symbol as she slammed her glove down on the right Shift Lever three times. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] Then swiped her right glove. [DUST MIRROR MAGIC PLEASE!] Dust swirled inwards and transformed into a pair of mirrors, one on either side of Dante. They blocked the green beams and allowed Dante to continue his charge.

Dante pressed the Nephilim Ring into the slot at the base of the Rebellion Blade’s handle. [SIX!] The mouth opened to show six red and blue circles. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Then Dante punched the Nephilim Ring into the slot on the left side of his Driver. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] Red and blue magical energy ran from Dante’s Driver into his right boot as he pressed down on the Rebellion Blade’s trigger. [NEPHILIM SABER STRIKE!] Red and blue magical energy shrouded the Rebellion Blade as the energy was pulled from his boot and into the blade. “Mega Trillion Stabs!” shouted Dante as he unleashed a barrage of stabs that made explosions go off around the face of Bob Barbas.

He gave a loud roar as Dante jumped back. Bob charged up purple and green energy around himself before firing it out in three beams of purple energy in a triangle formation that rotated around the room while the green energy took the form of three beams that moved in to crush the Kamen Riders.

“Roles reversed!” ordered Symbol as she ran towards Bob Barbas.

“Got it!” shouted Dante as he changed the Nephilim Ring for the Arbiter Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] Dante turned his wrist back, then forwards making his Driver’s gate close and open. [OPEN!] The arbiter magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him. [A-R-B-I-T-E-R!] Dante pulled the Arbiter Axe off his back and punched the Arbiter Ring into the slot at the base of its handle. [FOUR!] The holographic dice appeared above the Arbiter Axe as Dante pulled it back red magic gathered around it. [AXE STRIKE!] Dante slammed the weapon into the ground and unleashed three pulses of red energy that cancelled out the purple beams.

Seeing that the green beams were about to crush them, Dante switched the Arbiter Ring for the Eryx Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [SET!] Two twists made Dante’s Driver’s door close and spring back open. [OPEN!] The arbiter magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him. [E-R-Y-X!] Now in the Eryx Style, Dante punched the Eryx Ring into the slot at the back of the right Eryx Gauntlet. [FOUR!] The holographic dice appeared above the right Eryx Gauntlet as red flames collected around the two fist shaped weapons. [FIST STRIKE!] Dante pressed the trigger inside the left Eryx Gauntlet. [FIST STRIKE!] The flames were mixed with red magical energy as Dante punched the ground. “Showdown!” roared Dante as a pair of red energy and flame spikes came out of the ground on each side of him, holding back the green energy beams, stopping them from crushing them. But Dante could already feel the strain. “Hurry up! Sunset!” shouted Dante.

“I’m on it!” shouted Symbol as she hit the left Shift Lever four times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] Then she scanned her left glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [BURST! B RANK SPELL!] Water in the air collected and froze into four shurikens of ice that Symbol sent shooting forwards as she hit the left Shift Lever four times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO! VERY NICE!] Symbol swiped her left glove. [BURST! S RANK SPELL! THE BEST!] The shurikens quickly grew in both size and power as they raced towards Bob’s face. “Ice Mirror Surround!” shouted Symbol as the four large ice shurikens cut into Bob’s face drawing a storm of sparks.

Suddenly, Bob starting charging yellow, purple and green energy in three circles around himself.

“That’s new!” muttered Symbol as Bob fired. The yellow energy turned into an expanding circle around Bob Barbas, the green energy turned into a pair of beams that started to close in on the Kamen Rider’s and the purple energy transformed into three beams in a triangle formation that spun around the area.

“SHIT!” bellow Dante as he punched the Eryx Ring into the slot in the back of the right Eryx Gauntlet. [SIX!] The holographic dice appeared above the right Eryx Gauntlet and spun until it stopped on a six. [FIST STRIKE!] Flames gathered around the left Eryx Gauntlet as Dante pulled the trigger within it. [FIST STRIKE!] The flames were mixed with red magical energy as Dante punched the Eryx Ring into the left slot of his Driver. [GO! KICK STRIKE!] The flames and red mana were pulled into Dante’s right boot as he spun around. “Mega Snake Eyes!” shouted Dante as his boot made contact with the wall. But to his shock, he was barely holding it back!

Symbol turned to the two green beams that were about to crush them and slammed her glove down on the left Shift Lever three times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO!] She scanned her left glove again. [BURST! A RANK SPELL!] Symbol held her right glove down to the ground and out of it burst a wall made from solid rock. She knew it would not stop the beam for long and pressed the left Shift Lever four more times. [MAGICAL TOUCH GO! VERY NICE!] Then she scanned her left glove. [BURST! S RANK SPELL! THE BEST!] The wall glowed with purple mana as the earth was pulled from the ground making it much denser. “Earth Wall Enforcement!” ordered Symbol as she turned to the other beam which was still closing in.

Symbol quickly hit the right Shift Lever twice. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO!] She scanned her right glove across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [MIRROR MAGIC PLEASE!] A mirror appeared in front of the green beam and started trying to throw it back with little success. Seeking to give it some help, Symbol slammed her glove down on the right Shift Lever four times. [MAGIC TOUCHIE GO! VERY NICE!] Symbol scanned her right glove once more. [DUST MIRROR MAGIC! THE BEST!] The mirror was enforced by purple and brown magical energy. “Mirror Reflection!” shouted Symbol as the mirror was able to halt the green beam.

All of a sudden, a purple beam smashed into Dante breaking his focus and slamming him into the yellow wall making sparks explode from his body as he was attacked by the Phantom’s mana.

“DANTE!” shouted Symbol. Suddenly the other purple beams attack her, one shattered her wall, the other shattered her mirror and the final purple beam slammed into her before she was sandwiched between both of the purple beams. A large explosion was ignited with her in the centre of it.

“SUNSET!” shouted Dante as his sister fell to the ground with sparks coming from her armour. He turned to Bob Barbas. “The gloves are off!” he switched the Eryx Ring for the Trigger Ring and punched it into his Driver’s left slot. [ERROR!] Boomed the Driver instead of transforming him.

Dante stared. “Performance issues NOW OF ALL TIMES?!” he shouted in shock.

“You must have used up too much mana today,” muttered Symbol as she got back to her boots with sparks still coming from her armour. She slid the Advance Ring into her left middle finger.

“Woah! Are you crazy?!” demanded Dante. “You know what that thing does to you!” he shouted.

“Yeah, I probably am crazy,” replied Symbol as she hit the left Shift Lever. [TOUCH TO ADVANCE YOUR CLASS!] “But we don’t have any other options!” she scanned the Advance Ring across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [ADVANCE PLEASE!] The Advance magic circle appeared in front of her and moved back through Symbol, transforming her into the Advance Style.

“We need to get this battle over with as soon as possible so we can get back to The Order,” shouted Symbol as the transformation finished. “It’s up to you to stop me if I lose it!”

“Dante nodded grimly. “OK!”

“Change all you want! You’ll never beat me!” shouted Bob Barbas as he fired a blue laser that trapped Symbol. Three green lasers and four purple lasers aiming to crush her with them.

Symbol pressed the left Shift Lever twice. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL!] Then scanned the Advance Ring. [ADVANCE A TIER SPELL!] The rectangles on the back of her forearm armour glowed as she punched outwards, destroying both of the green beams and the blue beam with her fists while the shockwaves of yellow mana that her limbs fired destroyed all four of the purple beams.

“WHAT?!” demanded Bob Barbas as he fired a yellow wall, three more purple beams and a blue beam that trapped Symbol while the other attacks moved in to crush her.

Symbol pressed the left Shift Lever once. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL!] Then she scanned the Advance Ring. [ADVANCE C TIER SPELL!] The rectangles on her limbs started to glow as Symbol ran forwards and hit the left Shift Lever four times. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL! VERY NICE!] Bob was confused as to how the blue beam as not stopping her as Symbol scanned the Advance Ring again. [ADVANCE S TIER SPELL! THE BEST!] Yellow magical energy covered her body. “Advance Charge!” shouted Symbol as she cut through the three attacks and slammed her fist into Bob’s face making sparks come from it.

“NO NO NO! STAY BACK!” screamed Bob as he fired a blast of blue energy with a pair of green beams coming around to crush Symbol between them

Symbol dodged to the side as she pressed the left Shift Lever twice. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL!] Then scanned the Advance Ring. [ADVANCE B TIER SPELL! ] Yellow magical energy covered her right elbow as she flipped through the air and slammed her limb down on Bob’s head making him roar in pain from the impact of the attack as sparks come from the impact point.

Bob roared as he fired another beam of blue energy that was propelling a wall towards Symbol who pressed the left Shift Lever four times. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL!] Symbol swiped the Advance Ring. [ADVANCE B TIER SPELL!] Yellow magic energy was leaked from the rectangles on the back of her forearm armour as Symbol crossed them, stopping the wall in its tracks. She grunted as pain flared in the side of her helmet. “Cross Guard Counter!” shouted Symbol as she uncrossed her arms, firing a yellow X made of magic energy at Bob Barbas. It forced back the blue beam and yellow wall, which only added to the damage Bob took when the attack made an impact.

Bob roared in rage as he fired two more green beams, another yellow wall and four purple beams. Symbol hit the left Shift Lever once more. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL!] She jumped over the attacks as she scanned the Advance Ring again. [ADVANCE C TIER SPELL!] She covered her fist in yellow magical energy as she went shooting down and punched Bob in the face making him scream in pain from the force of the blow and the energy behind it.

Symbol slammed her fist down on the left Shift Lever four times. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL! VERY NICE!] She scanned the Advance Ring across the Wizard Driver’s Hand Author. [ADVANCE S TIER SPELL! THE BEST!] The yellow orbs and rectangles on her limbs shone while the circle on her chest plate shinned. Symbol let yellow magical energy blaze around her body before focusing it into her leg and running forwards before jumping into a flying kick. “Advance End!” shouted Symbol as she went shooting down. Her boot made contact with Bob’s face and sparks flew as explosions went off around Bob Barbas. Cracks with light shining from them spread through him as Bob tried to hold himself together before he exploded.

A screen appeared in front of the Phantom with Bob’s human avatar as he tried to escape.

“Hey Bob!” shouted Dante. “Your fired!” he pulled out Ebony and Ivory before shooting at the screen making two bullet holes appear in it. Bob’s human avatar staggered back as he clutched his chest before falling over dead.

Dante faceplate palmed when he realized that he made it look like he had just killed Bob Barbas ON LIVE TV! “That could have gone better,” he turned to Symbol.

Just in time to get a punch to the faceplate!

“ARGH!” shouted Dante as he went flying back. “So it’s not a matter of if you lose it but when!” he growled as he glanced down at the Trigger Ring that was still on his left middle finger. “I just hope that I have enough mana left!” he punched the Trigger Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [TRIGGER!] Dante turned his left wrist back, then forwards making his Driver’s door close and then open again. [GO ANGEL!] The angel trigger magic circle appeared from Dante’s Driver and moved back through him, transforming Dante into the Angel Trigger Style. [AN-AN-AN-ANGEL!] Dante drew the Rebellion Magnum Angel Mode and pressed the Trigger Ring into the back of it. [ANGEL SIX!] Dante took aim as a light blue holographic one appeared in front of the Rebellion Magnum’s skull. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante opened fire, launching a barrage of bullets from the Rebellion Magnum that drew sparks from Symbol’s body.

[TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL!] [ADVANCE C TIER SPELL!] With a roar she charged her right fist with yellow magical energy and ran forwards to take a swing at Dante.

Dante replied by punching the Trigger Ring into his Driver’s Left slot. [KICK STRIKE! GO!] Light blue wind covered his body. [ANGEL!] Dante vanished in a burst of speed and appeared behind Symbol. She missed her swing and Dante kicked her in the back, sending his sister shooting forwards with sparks coming from her back plate.

[TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL!] [ADVANCE B TIER SPELL!] With a shout Symbol covered her right fist in yellow magical energy as she ran towards to Dante to deliver a quick elbow strike.

Dante pressed the Trigger Ring into the back of the Rebellion Magnum. [ANGEL FIVE!] The holographic six lost a unit and turned to a light blue holographic five. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante took aim and fired a single powerful light blue bolt that smashed into Symbol and made sparks explode from her chestplate, sending her shooting back with sparks coming from her body.

Symbol got back up as her armour started to flicker she hit the left Shift Lever three times. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL!] Then she scanned the Advance Ring. [ADVANCE A TIER SPELL!] The rectangles on the back of her forearms armour started to glow as she charged forwards. Both of her fists were cloaked in a thin layer of yellow magical energy as Symbol got ready to pummel Dante.

Dante knew that Symbol would block any direct attacks with that move. ‘Time to be indirect then,’ he thought as he punched the Trigger Ring into the back of the Rebellion Magnum. [ANGEL TWO!] The holographic five transformed into a light blue two. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante fired the Rebellion Magnum at Symbol. She raised her arms to block the light blue bolt, only for it to curve around her arm and send her spinning through the air as it slammed into one of her visors.

Dante winced. “Ouch. I wasn’t meaning to hit her there!” as Symbol got back up, Dante held down on the Rebellion Magnum’s trigger. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Ten rings of magical energy were pulled into the Rebellion Magnum as it charged. [ANGEL!] Dante took aim and let go of the trigger. “Death Coil Roulette!” he shouted as he fired a column sized blue beam that curved around and struck Symbol from the side, hitting her into the air before looping around again to repeat the process. The beam did this several times, getting faster and faster until an explosion was ignited across Symbol’s body, making her fall to the ground with sparks coming from her armour.

Dante ran forwards to where Symbol was going to impact the ground and punched the Trigger Ring into his Driver’s left slot. [KICK STRIKE! GO!] Light blue wind wrapped around his right boot. [ANGEL!] Dante spun around. “Death Coil!” he shouted as his boot made contact with Symbol’s side and sent her shooting to the other side of the room with blue wind wrapped around her body that made sparks explode from her in a continuous stream. She impact the wall of the room with a loud boom, creating a crater and a large dust cloud.

Symbol came out of the dust cloud, still in the Advance Style.

“That style’s definitely getting stronger,” muttered Dante, then his form started to flicker. “This is bad. I have barely a minute left in this form.”

Symbol pressed the left Shift Lever four times. [TOUCH TO CAST THE NEXT LEVEL! VERY NICE!] Then she scanned the Advance Ring. [ADVANCE S TIER SPELL! THE BEST!] Her body was covered in yellow magical energy that leaked from the rectangles and orbs.

Symbol charged.

“I’d better make this count,” muttered Dante as he punched the Trigger Ring into the back of the Rebellion Magnum. [ANGEL FIVE!] The two shifted back into a light blue five. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Dante held down the Rebellion Magnum’s trigger. [MAGNUM STRIKE!] Ten rings of light blue magic were pulled into the Rebellion Magnum’s barrel. [ANGEL!] Then Dante let go of the trigger. “Stinger!” he fired a huge beam that slammed into Symbol. For several seconds she pushed back against it but then her boots lost their grip on the ground and she was sent flying back with explosions going off around her body before an explosion went off around her.

[MAGICAL TOUCH HENSHIN!] [BURST PLEASE!] [CAST THE SPELL!] Symbol came out of the explosion back in the Burst Style. “Urgh, what happened?!” she groaned in pain.

Then she was grabbed by Dante.

“Hey! What are you-?!”

Dante cut his sister off as he dragged her out of the room. “Sorry, no time to explain!”

Neither of them noticed the blue energy come from Bob’s corpse and transform the Angel Ring into a pair of Rings as well as give Symbol two new Rings.
