~Episode 1~ Encounter! Affinity of Hope [Part 1]
[Location: Home World @ Flight to Japan]
Reitsurugi Kisuke, 23, an ordinary human just like anyone else. Someone who will just numb himself day by day with all the work and chores.
However, Kisuke just had this hunch that something will change his life, at a point not far from now, as he peers into the glass with his left eye, wiping the glass clean with the cloth as he ponders all this.
“KISUKE!” as Kisuke’s colleague came rushing in to the pantry.
“Kisuke we have to pace up! Food & beverage orders are piling up from the passengers on the plane. Geez, life as an air steward ain’t easy for us huh”
Kisuke’s colleague, Souma Morishita laments.
Kisuke: “Well, we can’t help it, that’s all part of the job isn’t it?”
Kisuke dries his wet hands with a cloth, as he holds the tray full of passenger’s drink and food and went on into the passenger cabin.
Right now the plane is en route back to Japan after a pull-over at Singapore from Brazil, the plane cruises stably in the air, as the plane gradually enters a heavy raincloud area.
The captain of the plane began to look keenly into the front as multitude of clouds that obscures his sight began to pass through his view.
“Notify the entire crew and passengers that we might face flight course difficulty” the Captain instructs his assistant captain
“Why, Captain? What did you see?” the Assistant curiously enquired.
“Look, that descending streak of light above the cloud at our 2’o clock direction”
The assistant-captain squints his miniscule eye into the direction to see what was ahead, only to catch sight of the streaking light that the captain was referring to.
“Captain! The plane would collide with the meteor at its current course, we must shift course immediately!” all the while the assistant-captain attempts to pin down his anxiety, the Captain acknowledges his suggestion.
*In-Flight Announcement System: “Attention! We are currently undergoing a re-course; As such we might face heavy turbulence and a delay in ETA of destination. We hereby sincerely requests for your understanding and cooperation, thank you.”*
“Aww shucks! Longer flight time, over-time work for us, I don’t think I like this…” Souma whines in disappointment.
Kisuke: “Well Souma *as Kisuke looks at him with a gentle smile on the face* that all parts and parcels of work isn’t it? It’s not the first time that we have encountered such situations.”
Though Kisuke had noticed something amiss, he brings up to Souma on what that puzzles him.
Kisuke: “Souma, talking about first time, don’t you think it’s weird that we are experiencing flight emergencies for the first time on a course from Singapore to Japan? As far as this flight course is concerned, we haven being encountering anything during our three years of service.”
Souma: “You sure have a keen observation. Let us hope nothing bad is going to happen, *sighs* my eyelids has been twitching oddly today.”
Meanwhile on the Captain’s side, the captain swerves the plane for a semi-nosedive upon an extensive observation at the streaking light’s descending speed.
“That should do, based on current course; we should have avoided a collision with the unknown object.”
However not known to the Captain and his crew, the streaking light began to radiate a glow that rises gradually in intensity, as it ignites and irregularly increases its velocity.
The falling light closes-in ground zero on the plane as it collides into the starboard wing of the plane; brushes pass and dive down with no signs of decrease in its velocity.
*In-Flight Announcement System: “Emergency! I repeat, Emergency! We are currently hovering solely on the port-side wing. We will commence a round-turn emergency glide for an emergency landing on the southern-most area of South Korea*
And Kisuke immediately goes through the standard ops procedure of instructing onboard passengers to stand-by the safety jacket in case of a possible subsequent collision.
Not long after there were passengers on board who had begun to grow restlessly and panicked.
One of them could be heard shouting: “HEY! GET THE CAPTAIN HERE; how the hell in the world does he flies his bloody plane, for pete’s sake”
Kisuke, Souma and a couple of co-working air-stewardess looked at each other in silence, as they turned to peer helplessly across the passenger’s cabin that is brewing with a stiff atmosphere of uneasiness and tension.
[Location: Home World @ South-Korean, Southern-most Forest Area]
Slowly and safely, the plane managed to land on southern-most border of South Korea, where it seems to be a rustic rural area enveloped with a cluster of forests, and within the forests a thick smoke can be seen rising.
The captain knowing that it was very likely the landing location of the streak of light that had brushed against the plane in a collision; he called for Kisuke and Souma.
“Kisuke, Souma, I need you to head down and investigate the source of the heavy smoke before investigation and rescue parties could arrive. I have many reasons to believe that it was responsible for colliding into the plane back then.”
Souma is quick to retort “But Captain, we were only-“
However the even quicker Kisuke grapples Souma by his neck from behind and dragging him along and replied to Captain: “Roger. We will see to it that it will be done. Let’s move along, Souma”
“But Captain, we were merely air stewards…” Souma finishes his sentence weakly, facially expressing his void of enthusiasm and covering his head with both hands.
With barely any resource the plane could offer in such situations, Kisuke and Souma geared up lightly for what that is needed, a small camcorder and a multi-purpose S.O.G knife that would prove useful for forest terrains, they set out across the forest towards the source of the thick piling smoke.
As Kisuke and Souma slowly but steadily moves up the slopes, trekking across a sea of trees, they soon reached the site where the smoke piles.
“Look, Kisuke! There’s somebody over there!” Souma exclaimed, pointing towards it.
Kisuke could see it faintly; a figure in black cloak was staggering feebly towards their direction away from the source of the piling smoke.
“We have got to help, Souma.” Kisuke said, as Souma answered in acknowledgement.
Kisuke and Souma hurried towards the figure in black cloak.
“Help...Please...” the figure in black cloak staggers so weakly that it was clearly about to collapse.
Kisuke dashed towards it and catches the collapsing figure in his arms.
“You, are you alright?” Kisuke asks.
Just then, the figure shimmers in a golden luminous glow, as the glow remains soft but brilliant, Kisuke turns his head away out of his reflex and shuts his eye from the piercing brilliant of the glow, next moment a jolt of shock ran through Kisuke’s mind.
Kisuke couldn’t comprehend why, but it was as if he was forced to recall bits and pieces of memories of his previous lover, Renee, who had initially rejected Kisuke’s courtship for another guy, however it did not work out for Renee as the guy turned out to be a love swindler.
Renee realized what she had been missing out on Kisuke’s virtues and pleaded with him to get together.
Yet Kisuke remains cold-hearted and unfeeling towards Renee’s plead, even though his feelings for Renee remains strong, he thought he would always have the time to eventually express how he really felt towards her.
Unfortunately, time was not meant to be, not long after, Renee was caught in the major flood disaster and died, leaving Kisuke’s untold confessions to sink endlessly at the bottom of his heart.
Kisuke opens his eyes slowly, lest the luminosity glares his eye again, only to see what he couldn’t believe, as the shimmering began to fades off, the figure in the black cloak reveals to be none other than Renee.
“Renee!?” Kisuke was almost loss for words.
As the girl in black cloak that called out faintly to Kisuke, “Help me, *As Renee pauses to catch her frail breath* I don’t want to be go back to the dark and cold lab anymore…”
The girl in the black cloak hands a satchel into Kisuke’s left hand as she finally rests in Kisuke’s arms, trying hard to maintain her consciousness.
“Renee, just what had she gone through, and why did she ask for help…?” Kisuke ran through the questions in his mind.
“You There!” shouts a mysterious voice towards Kisuke’s direction.
Kisuke turned his head to look, as a couple of guy in a smart-white uniform strolls towards him.
“Who are you guys?” Kisuke questions them
“Foundation-X or rather, Proxy-Riders.” Replied one of the men in white uniform, who seems to be more well-built and robust of the two.
“Aniki *the leaner-build of the addresses another* , it’s futile to tell a dead people so much, let’s just dispose them off and take Solu Mark-III back, shall we?”
“Humph, you’re quick to talk!” the well-built man in white uniform retorts.
As the two men in white uniform holds in their right hand what that seems to be buckler in monochrome color, they slap the buckler to the center of their waist, as the buckler projects an enveloping belt that hugs snugly around the waist of the two men.
“HENSHIN!” the two men exclaimed as they pushes the center gray core button of the buckler, ejecting the part that covers the gray core from left and right.
Next, a greyish aura envelops them in entirety, and transforms them into Proxy Punch Hopper and Proxy Kick Hopper, which resembles just like the original Punch Hopper and Kick Hopper, except that it was in monochrome color instead
“Ka… Kamen riders?!!” Souma panicked out and ran behind Kisuke.
“Kamen Riders?” says Kisuke, who seems clueless about what Souma is saying.
“Goodness! Don’t you have a childhood? They were usually Japanese television series-based Super heroes who fights villains and defend peace, though there were also nefarious ones, such as the ones before us”
As the two proxy riders approaches Kisuke and others in an arrogant, paced stride, Souma and Kisuke who was holding “Renee” in his arms, retreats step by step.
“What should we do, do we stand a chance if we run? What if everyone at the plane wreck were implicated?” complex and mixed thoughts ran through Kisuke’s mind.
“Kisuke... The satchel, Descend driver, transform...” ‘Renee’ braces her consciousness and tells Kisuke.
“Descend Driver?” Kisuke opens up the string-tightened satchel and finds a device that resembles the buckler which the two men in white uniform transform with.
However this buckler had two circular radials. With the larger, golden-colored radial at the outer layer of the circumference bearing ten buttons that depicts different emblems of the first 10 heisei-riders (from Kuuga to Decade)
And another 4 buttons on the smaller silver-colored radial at the inner-layer of the circumference (from Double/W to Wizard)
Within the two circular radials beholds a core which ejects the radials into half, left and right of the center when pushed, to reveal a slot to insert the cards.
“Take care of Renee.” Kisuke entrusts ‘Renee’ into Souma’s arms.
He stood up and slapped the Descend Driver to the center of his waist, as the Descend Driver ejects a belt that hug Kisuke’s waist snugly.
Proxy-Hoppers saw what Kisuke is doing and finds his action familiar somehow.
“Henshin? Bakana! (Impossible!)” Proxy Punch Hopper expresses his extreme disbeliefs…
Kisuke wields in his hand, a completely gray-colored card that bears two lines of stripe (which was found along with the Driver in the satchel earlier on), he gave the core of the buckler a push of a button, revealing the card slot as the buckler slides ejects and open in half.
He slots the card into the card slot, as the driver system generates an aurora-colored beam through the two stripes.
*Kamen Rider Descend’s System Announcement: Double Rider Command!*
“Henshin!” as Kisuke swings his left arm to his right shoulder, as it hits the buckler and closes up.
Magnificent wings spread wide open from Kisuke’s back, as a row of halo-looking axels surrounds him with an aurora-colored aura.
The wings swings Proxy Punch Hopper and Proxy Kick Hopper aside, knocking them into a tree as they rolled from the impact, bracing themselves up and couldn’t believe what they were seeing.
The young man who was just helpless before them a minute ago, transformed into a Kamen Rider!
“But, it’s impossible! There shouldn’t be any true existence of riders in this world! Curse it!” Swears Proxy Kick Hopper
“I will protect the ones around me, *as Kisuke clenches his left fist* and decimates you who threatens and stands before me.
Kisuke quotes his signature line for a debut: “From this moment on, *points index finger at the Proxy Hoppers* Your unsightly defeat has already been decided!”
“Don’t get so cocky just because you have transformed, YOU BRAT!”
