Reiko took on a confused pose in response to Cornelius' banter as she thinks hard. "You're right. Corn don't have hands and legs," noted Reiko as she nods her head in agreement with his statement, oblivious to his dissatisfied tone of voice. "Sorry Green - kun. My mistake for not noticing earlier," replied Reiko while rubbing the back of her helmet. Cisne had one hand covering her face when Reiko gave Cornelius another nickname as a sigh escaped her lips. "You're nice. I would really be sad if we did fight. I'm glad we didn't," remarked Reiko cheerfully. "If your real name's Joan, then you should know that mine is Reiko. It's much better than Femme," responded Reiko with a cheery tone. Suddenly, Reiko and Cisne noticed Cornelius dashing off after delivering his suggestion. "New friends?" exclaimed Reiko gleefully as she skips along with Cisne following her from behind as they follow both Cornelius and Joan towards the designated area.

As Reiko and Cisne arrive, they noticed a whole lot of commotion as golems and fiery lion like creatures surround two full armor clad women. "Ooh...Kitties and dolls!" exclaimed Reiko excitedly as she jumps up and down like a little girl in a candy shop. "Focus, Reiko. They're not your average cats and those things are not dolls. They're Fireshades and golems. Minions of Aesir. Watch yourself," warned Cisne as she takes a few step back from Reiko's position. However, Reiko's attention was diverted as she watch Cornelius disappears in a cloud of smoke. "Wow! How did he do that?!" exclaimed Reiko with awe as a Fireshade pounce at her, baring it's sharp fangs and claws at her. "Look out!" warned Cisne as Reiko flip her body backwards, narrowing avoiding the creature as it dash by and lands opposite of Reiko.

"Whoa. That was close," muttered Reiko under her breath as she draws her rapier. The beast then charged at her only to have its head smacked by the brunt force of her rapier causing it to stagger to the ground. While the beast falls, another two appear behind Reiko and proceeded to ash towards her. With quick reflexes, Reiko spun around and swung her rapier as she went causing a strong momentum that hit both of them, pushing them back in the process. Reiko then made a leap over them and landed near where Joan and the two other riders were. "Hi, Bat - chan and Black - chan! Let's kick some bad guy butt!" exclaimed Reiko as she strikes one of the golems standing in front of her, which caused it to draw back a little form the group of newly met riders.

Completely focused on the task at hand, Tamao did not even bother to look at Raina and Kivaara, even though Kivaara had acknowledged her presence. Gripping her crimson saber tightly, she continued to hack away at the Fireshades and Golems, the crimson blade quelling the flames surrounding the Fireshades' bodies, while the Golems were sliced in half effortlessly. Making quick work of yet another Fireshade, Tamao finally glanced over to Raina, only to find two more warriors join the fray. I do not know these two warriors...but it would be imprudent of me to not trust them completely. Yet...I still better be careful, Tamao thought, noticing another Fireshade attempt to attack her from behind. Before the Fireshade could execute its attack, however, she quickly delivered a roundhouse kick, knocking it away.

The Shadow Golem lets out a fierce roar as it throws a punch towards Ingram, a huge dust cloud kicked up and the Shadow Golem laughs however as the dust cloud clears, Ingram managed to block the attack, holding it back with both his arms. "What?!" The Shadow Giant says. Ingram chuckles "Naive!" Ingram says. Summoning all of his strength, Ingram throws the Shadow Golem, sending it crashing into a nearby building. "You...bastard!" The second Golem says, it charges towards Ingram and slams his fists down, Ingram dodges the attack easily, and counters by flying straight into the Golem, kicking him in the stomach as he does. "Come on now...you're going to have to do far better then that" Ingram says now standing on top of the fallen Golem.

High above the city’s tallest building structure a temporal rift open connecting the two worlds. From the temporal rift Fang merged into the Human World with the metal briefcase in hand. The Human World which Aesir coveted sparkled with the multicolored lights, buildings of various sizes and sounds of the city filled with abundant life caught her eye. A mirrored image of Fantasia and its Kingdoms before the Ancient Spirit’s influence left it a desolated world. Moving closer towards the edge peered down at the hustling along the sidewalks and streets. There down below was one meeting the qualifications that will suit in putting an end to Aesir’s grand scheme. Fang’s attention was momentarily diverted as something white and cold started falling from the sky. Reaching out with her free hand collected few of the white fluff rather intrigued by the freshly fallen snow. Another rarity that had caught the young woman’s attention never stepped beyond the walls she called home.

Closing the black leather gloved hand tightly moved away from the roof’s edge focused on what needed to be done. Taking to the streets several passers Fang heed no mind to the spectacle stares thrown her way moving through the gathered crowd nor understood at first. The Human World’s cold and bitter climate acquired them to adorn clothing that shielded them from the element, which Fang notice to stick out amongst the crowd far too easily. With the presence of the Kamen Rider Knights aura fond within this world so was that of Aesir’s Shadow Golems and Fireshades. Milestones in comparison of those on a higher plane level were still dangerous. Ducking into the next empty alley would keep to the shadows while continuing her search.

-----------------

The power omitted from Ryuuya had caught of Shadow Golems scavenging amongst the forestry behind the outlet mall. For a moment they stood alert trying to deter if the power unleashed belonged to one of Aesir’s generals or to one of the Ancient Relics they were place in charged to find. A Shadow Golem taller in stature wearing a purple scarf pointed forward commanding his unit to move out. What they found could be taken either way a fortune of luck shinning down on them or dangerous if the unknown rider was an ally.
“How should we proceed?†A lower Shadow Golem flanked the leader’s left side. The Shadow Golem leader studied the black and gold rider from a distance. “Hmmmm….Not all at once,†the leader replied motioning for three of the front flank to engage Agito, “With any luck they’ll destroy each other making it simple to retrieve the Ancient Relic†This was responded with meeting approval.

Kivala’s blade came straight down cutting down through a Shadow Golem turn around as the creature fell backwards in and explosion. As last of the flame blown by the chilling move back onto her feet glance back at the mysterious figure. “Kamen Rider Eclipse†Kivarra informed feeling her partner’s suspicion cast at the other rider. “You need to cast doubt no longer for that is one of the Kamen Rider Knights that we must seek out.†A Kamen Rider Knight?! Kivala could not believe it at first, but her fear not being able to find the ancient relics or their wielders before the enemy was plausible. Taking a double glance failed to see that her guard had been lowered to take notice of those stunned rising back up.

Breathing heavily Kivala’s body tense shifting into a defensive stance readying for the next wave. That was until two shadows loomed over the two riders joining in on the fight. “Two more riders, nice to meet ya both. Hope we can be friends.†As Kani said kicked one of the Lion like creatures away from herself while nodding to them. "Hi, Bat - chan and Black - chan! Let's kick some bad guy butt!" exclaimed white swan-like striking a golem standing in front of her, which caused it to draw back a little form the group of newly met riders. The two new arrivals cast the same doubt as Eclipse appeared to be more talkative to say at the least “B-Bat-chan?!†Raina felt the color in her cheeks blushed more brightly furious of being called out in such a manner. “My name is not Bat-chan! It is…..â€

“Kivala!†Kivarra cried out as they were pinned down to the ground by a Fireshade causing the rider to lose her sword in the process. The fiery beast snapped it muzzle repeatedly was halted as Raina shot both hand to keep it open. Kivala’s red eye pieces flashed unsure who to be mad at right now herself or the white rider. Their fighting prowess was admirable felt like they were taking this seriously enough question if they two were worthy of being Kamen Rider Knights. “GET.OFF.ME†Kivala roared feeling herself starting to slip more as the scent of blood on the creature’s muzzles tingle her senses.

There was no question or doubt that somewhere in this most unusual world one to become her partner, but the humans Fang had encountered neither appeared to have any potential. Taking only a moment to determine her next move panned out picking up the same auras entering the human world. What caused some concern was the increase amount of Aesir’s lesser soldiers making their way into the Human World. It appeared that her escape had not went entirely unnoticed needed to step things up post haste.

“Crap! I’m gonna be late for work!†A voice kept shouting increasingly drawing closer caught Fang’s attention. Having only spent a short period within the human learn that they in a rush to reach some designation or yelling at each other. Running past the exit of the alley Fang caught site of the young man of whom the voice belonged too. Immediately her first impression of him was being reckless nature. Tapping the handle of the briefcase smirked slightly seeing of some use he might be took back into the city streets following him closely.

Joan round house kicked a fire shade and heard Kivala’s shout as a fire shade bore down upon her. Joan reacted quickly reaching for the TicToc Watch and turning it to the left. The seconds hand began to move and her hand was wraped in a dark pink energy as she whispered, “Mad Dash, Rider Punch”. All that the other riders and their enemies would see would be a pink blur zooming around the battle field as Joan struck each fire shade with her rider punch, including the one pinning down Kivala. Most if not all would be destroyed by the attacks, but before she could turn her attention to the golems she suddenly stopped a few feet from the large creatures. She let out a gasp as she fell to her knees holding her hand and shaking uncontrollably. “Wh-what’s happening to me….” Was Joan’s only response as Cornelius’ voice rang out from the watch. “You went to fast to soon; your body hasn’t adjusted to the watch’s power yet. Using that many rider punches while going at 30 Tics, more then a bit reckless even if you did want to help these lovely young ladies.” Joan struggled to stand to her feet with the golems only feet away from her, but standing was about all she could do at this point. “I…I won’t die yet…dad…I promise I won’t die yet…”, was all Joan could huff out before falling back to her knees.

Taking down her umpteenth fireshade, Tamao witnessed one of the newer Riders go into super speed mode, managing to eliminate a good chunk of the fireshades and Shadow Golems in the area, as well as the rider falling to her knees. Out of the corner of her eye, she witnessed the golems close in on the weakened rider, and instantly stepped in, slashing the golems to pieces with deadly accuracy. "Get out of here right now," she told the other rider coldly, a commanding tone evident on her voice, as she held her ground against the Shadow golems surrounding her and the other rider. Though she meant no malice with her words, Tamao did not want the rider, Kamen Rider Kani, to be a hindrance in battle, nor did she want the Rider to get killed due to her moment of weakness.

As battles raged elsewhere, things were relatively calmer in a church located on the edge of the city. The building itself was in need of renovation, but still looked respectable on the outside. Inisde, curled up in one of the pews was a young girl of 17 who had a rather restless and worried look on her otherwise cute face. Racing through Sakaki Kinojou's mind were feelings of doubt and worry...that..."thing" she saw herself change into...was she really going to end up like that? She was never really all that religious to begin with, but she knew of nowhere else to go, thinking that in some vain hope that hallowed ground would help her.

It was then that a nun, who only seemed about 5 years older than Sakaki, approached her out of concern. "Miss...if you are troubled, do you require anything?" She asked kindly. Sakaki glanced at the nun and spoke, her voice sounding a bit distant. "I'll...be fine...I just need somewhere for shelter, miss..." It wasn't a complete lie, but Sakaki didn't know if she could just up and tell the nun about all her problems. "If you do need to talk, then don't hesitate to talk with me...or...the Lord, of course..." The nun then left Sakaki alone. As to these words, Sakaki didn't know what to think. For now, she was safe...yet, she couldn't help but feel that something was wrong...like...something was after her...

The battle rages on as Reiko stood amongst the other riders, staring down at the hordes of golems and fireshades that are converging on them as the cool night breeze blew by, even amidst the heat of battle. Reiko's white cape blowing in the wind as she lowers her body, ready to strike as the golem in front of her prepares to do the same as it draws it's huge fist back, ready to crush it's foe with it's brute might. However, despite it's lumbering size, Reiko remained composed as she barely flinched.

The tense situation was broken when she heard Kivala stammering about her nickname that Reiko had given her earlier. "Huh?" exclaimed Reiko with a confused tone as she turned her attention towards Kivala only to notice her getting pinned down by a fireshade beast. "Bat - chan!" cried out Reiko with concern in her tone. "Reiko! Watch out!" alarmed Cisne as the golem swung it's earlier poised huge fist at Reiko. With split second judgment and reflexes, Reiko managed to jump out of the way in a back flip motion as the golem's fist creates a huge crater on the concrete floor. As a follow up, Reiko twisted her body in mid air and took a strong swipe at the golem's head with her rapier, cracking the seemingly fortified face plate causing the golem to crash to the ground on it's back with a loud thud as dust, dirt and grim spew around it in a circular cloud like texture.

After the attack, Reiko gently landed on her feet and proceeded to dash towards Kivala's location only to notice a pink blur zooming pass her. "Huh? What?! What?!" exclaimed Reiko with confusion and a bit of curiosity in her tone. Before she could utter a single word, most of the fireshades had been eliminated before her very eyes as they explode in balls of flames. "Wow!" remarked Reiko while jumping up and down in excitement whilst giggling only to realize that the pink had been Kani all along as she screeches to a halt. "That was cool, Kani - chan! You've destroyed all the annoying kitty things!" exclaimed Reiko with excitement and praise. However, her excitement was short lived as she noticed Kani falling to her knees in front of an attacking golem. "Kani - chan!" cried out Reiko as she rushes to her side.

Within seconds, the golem shattered to pieces as the black and gray rider appear between Kani and the once attacking golem. "Fuuh..." breathed a sigh of relief by Reiko as she place her hand on her chest, a sign that she was glad that someone saved Kani. "Thank goodness. Thank you, Black - chan," remarked Reiko with appreciation in her tone. "Wait a minute! That's mean, Black - chan! Kani - chan is doing her best! She promised to help and she will! I'll show you!" cried out Reiko as she pours out her heart and soul in regards to Kani. With that, she proceeded to reach for the deck in the middle of her belt and immediately draw out a card with a picture of a twin bladed lance engraved on it. Without any hesitation, she pulled on the trigger like knob at the end of her rapier causing the wing shape guard to open up revealing a card shape slot within it. She then place the card into it and push the knob causing the guard to close back. As she did, the rapier exclaimed, "Sword Vent," with a monotone voice.

As if by magic, an orb appeared in the palm of Cisne's hand. Without much consideration, Cisne threw the orb at Reiko, who caught it in her right hand where the orb expands and stretch into a twin bladed lance. With weapon in hand, Reiko used her free hand to balance Kani up using her hand and her shoulder as a support. "Even though, we just met, Kani - chan, I know you want to fight as much as I do," noted Reiko as she slowly rush towards a golem and proceeded to slash it's attacking fist with the twin bladed lance while holding on to Kani, making it look like they are fighting side by side. The slash had caused the golem's fist to split in half as she continued the attack by following up with an upward slash causing a crack in the golem's chest. "See, Black - chan. Kani - chan is not weak," noted Reiko with her back facing Eclipse as the golem crumbles to pieces.

One moment Kivala was staring directly into the rancid mouth of the fiery feline and the next cortex pink energy swept over eliminating the beast. Aware those that had not been caught up in Kani’s attack there was barely time to shake off the pain or gnawing hunger. The words that Eclipse had declared mirrored that lay in her own thoughts. These creatures were little in comparison those shadowing their own powers battles such as they face now needed to be taken seriously.

“You fail to understand the truer meaning of her words.†Picking up the discarded weapon “It has nothing to deal with one’s own power, but rather if they can continue to stand and fight. This is not playtime! If you’re injured the best thing you can do for yourself and others is get out of here.†Shifting her attention toward the fireshade’s and shadow golem’s leader.

“They will not wait and not miss a moment to exploit your own invulnerable state.†Kivala added shifting into a battle ready stance. The battle had waged on long enough did not want to give their enemy a moment chance to recover from the combine effort of the Kamen Riders. “Ahhhhhh…..†roar loudly as Kivarra’s eyes flashed briefly.

“Heh heh…I was waiting for you to pull this move out†the white bat laughed gleefully, “Wake Up!†it declared as purple ethereal wings appeared behind her partners back. Taking a step back embracing the power that swept over from channeling the attack Kivala charged forward. “KILL THEM!†The monster cried out before accepting Kivala’s challenge the lead Shadow Golem lunged forward.

Having dismissed Kitsune from his presence the ancient Spirit was free to be left to his own thoughts only to be disturbed once more as the throne room’s doors open wide revealing one of the palace servants. “Sire, I bring regrettable news of the Koriyama Hall facility†The Servant knelt down his left knee in respect, “The building now lies within ruins and there are no survivors.†Aesir did not even show an ounce of concern as the building and workers can easily be replaced. Listening further into detail of the condition it now stood and bodies sprawled about knew exactly who was responsible by the fashion they were found.

“What of Project Fang? Has it been recovered from the rubble intact?†Aesir spoke monotone.

“Lost Sire†the servant bowed his head, “It is undetermined if it had escaped during before or after….†The ancient spirit raised his hand having quite enough. Xeph would have to be dealt with in due time need to concentrate getting the project back on track and his precious Fang back. “There is something that you can do.†Aesir lean back in his chair “Project Fang no doubt has ventured into the Human World sent out the elite Shadow Golems, but I want them place in charge of a general most fitting to her return.â€

Finding it rather dull hanging around the palace or mingle with the other Shadow Knights, Kitsune venture off on her own recon mission to the Human World. The building look like one of that the people of Fantasia once travel to give their thanks to the Ancient Spirit’s before Aesir’s reign. From a glance one cannot imagine that by her current appearance was not of this world. Passing down the long aisle, Kitsune caught glimpse of her humanoid appearance for the first time. Gone were her blue hair, tail and ears. In her place was long black raven hair and eyes to match wearing casual clothing common to this world. How can humans stand not having a beautiful fluffy tail?

-------

Fang kept close on Tatsuya’s tail much as possible to avoid detection he was being follow was unsuccessful catching the stares and murmurs of passers. The silver-hair young woman did not take account of the Human World’s climate being so differently to dress more accordingly nor take much notice the temperature was nearly freezing. The only thing that laid solely on her mind was the ripple effect that something was entering the Human World.
They’re here….already? Fang growled lowly searching each direction frantically trying to pinpoint the merger point.

Sakaki continued to lay in the pew for a little while longer, before she decided to sit up, due to her body cramping up. Gah...maybe I should get up and walk around a bit... As she stretched her arms, she noticed another person enter the church and kept quiet as they came down the aisle. She could just be here to pay her respects, after all. However, Sakaki was going to be wary, nontheless. She could feel that something was after her, but she didn't know what exactly. I wish I knew what it was that's after me...it would make things so much easier...
