[GAME] Kamen Rider Knights (Main Thread)

[Sieghartdarage]

As Javiero dash towards the newly formed Kamen Rider known by the code name W, he noticed the ignorance displayed by Takuya as he brush aside the fact that he is being confronted by someone of general caliber and decided to place his focus on defeating minor minions which is clearly indicated when Takuya struck a blow at a nearby Fireshade, defeating as he went. Despite that, this form of insult didn't delay Javiero's attack as the relentless insectoid general rushes head on.

However, Javiero can't help but notice something amidst as the right side of W which houses Fang appear to be somewhat distracted. In mid air, Javiero slightly turn his gaze towards the same location that Fang was facing, catching a glimpse of a weird dinosaur like gadget. Through Javiero's train of thought, it could be indicated that Javiero may have seen such a device before however was unable to contemplate on it as his pure focus is on W. Shaking off the notion, Javiero proceeds to dash madly around W, confusing both Takuya and Fang with his blinding speed. As W is distracted by the dizzying display, Javiero proceeded to reach out his left hand and within that instant, grabbed the right hand of the green part of W which house Fang.

Once Javiero has W in his grasp he proceeded to take both Takuya and Fang for a ride as he hoist them up and flew around the vicinity with his captive only to later make a short twirl, spinning W around in the process and without warning threw W towards a wall, watching as W crashes into it. "Weak," remarked Javiero as he slowly descends and is later seen hovering above some of the Shadow Golems and Fireshades as they cringe in fear of his might. However, the emotionless Javiero doesn't gloat on his supposed victory as he waits on W to make their move as his gaze never left the rubble that buried the once proud W.

Valeria remained emotionless and silent as Aesir spoke while his grasp on her arm was loosened. "Then my actions shall be what you shall have, My Lord," responded Valeria with what appeared to be confidence in her emotionless tone as she bow her head low in deep respect. "My life you saved shall be spilled for your sake. I fear no punishment as I will accomplish anything you ask of me without any feeling of doubt," assured Valeria as she slowly step back while having her head bowed low and excused herself at Aesir's command. "I'll rejoice in your stead," remarked Valeria at Aesir's statement about looking forward towards some good news.

A few moments later, Valeria was seen walking down the dark corridor after her exit of the grand hall. A pair of eyes appears to be focused on her from above as it silhouette is veiled by the cover of darkness. Valeria halted her advance as she heard laughter echo around her. "Teeva," muttured Valeria under her breath as she appears to recognize the laughter. Within moments a harpy like girl began to descend and appeared floating in front of her. "Valeria, my dear. Such a poor child. Are you just going to let Aesir do what he wants with your life?" mocked Teeva with a sultry tone. "You should do well to respect our Master, Teeva. Besides, my life is no concern of yours. It's mine to do what I please with it," noted Valeria with her eyes closed. "Trust me, Valeria. You should do the smart thing and not serve him. Instead, you should use this opportunity to gather allies to your own cause," suggested Teeva with a sinister smile.

Valeria proceeded to brush pass her without any emotion displayed on her cold beautiful face as the jingle of her dangling crosses on her necklace echoed around the hallway. "I will locate these allies but not for my own sake. It will always be for the will of my Lord and Master, Aesir. Don't you forget that," replied Valeria with a serious tone as she walked on. "Tch! A fool as always," spat Teeva with a disgusted tone. "However, if opportunity shows itself, I won't hesitate to grasp it. I'm sure Xeph will agree with me," muttered Teeva under her breath as she licks her lips and proceeded to ascend into the darkness above.

As Joan peeked out into the balcony, all she could she was a bird like figure perched on the railing of her balcony. It is revealed to be Cisne as she had assumed her harpy form and is covered up by her wings like a blanket of feathers. From her sleeping face, Cisne appeared to be at peace as she slumbers without a care in the world as the soothing winds aid her sleep. However, before Joan could say a word, the door of her bedroom suddenly slam open and a figure was seen standing by the door while being blanketed by the darkness of the fading night. "Good morning!" exclaimed the figure as she steps out of the dark and into better view. There Reiko stood with her hair totally messed up but her face is as cheery as ever without any hint that she had just awoken from her slumber.

"Joan-chan!" exclaimed Reiko excitedly as she dash at her and proceeded to pounce on Joan, causing her to fall to the ground. While on the ground, Reiko gave her a warm hug as though she had found her long lost sister. "Did you sleep alright?" inquired Joan with a cheery tone.

Ebony looked toward Sakaki with a smile and shook her head. “No, nothing like that, you aren’t a solider. If anything you should think of this as a job, you’ll even receive compensation for helping us. On occasion we will ask you to train to better improve your control and abilities, and also ask that you allow our scientists to examine your body. Don’t fret over it, the head of our research department is rather protective over unique individuals.†With these words Ebony left the money for the check and motioned for Sakaki to follow. “I know you have had a long day, but perhaps your woud like to get the latter out of the way. Otherwise I can just take you home and we can talk again tomorrow, after you finish your classes.â€

Sakaki didn't like the word "examine". Images of her being tied down and being probed and tested on raced through her head and she was having second thoughts. Then again, Ebony's smile seemed genuine. To say that she was conflicted would be an understatement. As for her going home, she couldn't really do that, and she hadn't been to school since her changes started. Even though she was cursing her luck, she really didn't have anywhere else to go, other than the church. So, though she was reluctant, she decided to take up Ebony's offer. "Yeah...let's get that over with..." If this is the wrong choice...well, will I even be of sound mind to object if this is over?

Joan was caught off guard by Reiko’s sudden action but didn’t oppose the energetic good morning. “M-Morning Reiko, happy to see you slept well. You should really keep it down though, Cisne is still asleep.” Reiko realized only then that she was hugging Reiko as well, by instinct. After Reiko had arisen, Joan straightened her clothes and headed for the kitchen to scavenge for breakfast. “You can hit the shower if you want and borrow some of my clothes; I probably have something that fits. Which reminds me, where are all your belongings, like clothes and stuff?”
---------------------------------


Ebony nodded at her answer and leads the way to her bike. This was rather fortunate, Sakuya could explain everything to a greater degree and might even be able to help Sakaki understand the direness of the situation. Ebony drove toward a large sky scraper with not as much as a sign pointing toward its purpose or owner. After dismounting their bike, Ebony quietly lead Sakaki inside. At the front desk, Ebony went through a long process to gain entry; figure print scan, ocular scan, and finally full body scan. Once everything was cleared, Ebony Lead Sakaki into an elevator and pressed the button to the basement level. “Everything up top is mainly for show, though the company employs quite a few people for business and research. Down here though is where things get a little weird.”

When the elevator doors opened, a long hallway stretched forth leading to dozens of rooms. After a short walk they arrived at one door that was a different color from the rest. Upon opening it, the room seemed to be a simple/lab, with one side being devoted to technology and the other being devoted to biology. Sitting behind a desk was a woman, probably in her late twenties, working on a computer. The woman’s attitude seemed relatively calm as she turned her attention toward Ebony and Sakaki. As she stood and walked toward the two her features became clearer; short, pink hair, fair skin, blue eyes, and an average physique. “So, this is her, you didn’t have to bring her today Ebony.” The woman’s voice was as calm as her appearance, though a bit intimidating since she didn’t even smile. Ebony bowed in apology, her personality seeming to change a little from the light hearted woman from a moment before to a more soldier like persona. “I apologize, but it’s a lot for her to take in, and I’m not very good at this sort of thing. She is a good person though, treat her well Mrs. Sakuya.” Sakuya sighed and rubbed the breach of her nose before turning to Sakaki. “Excuse her, she changes personalities like some people change socks. I think it’s her way with handling human interaction. I’m Sakuya Kusanagi, I hope you aren’t to scarred or anything.”

"Hmmm....?" muttered Reiko as she continues to hug Joan, appreciating the fact that she hugged back. She then loosened her grip on Joan as she sneak a glance at the balcony that Cisne was perched on. "Oh. She's fine. Between you and me, she can sleep through a hurricane," noted Reiko with a hush - hush like tone as her right palm is placed by the side of her lips near Joan's ear, hoping that Cisne wouldn't hear it, which in normal circumstances would be difficult as she isn't discreet with that remark.

Reiko then watch as Joan tidy herself up and made her way towards the kitchen while she herself began to stretch her body as she cross her hands together and bend backwards displaying great flexibility. 'Hit the shower? Why would I do something that mean? I would like to shower but I don't want to hit it," responded Reiko with a curious tone as she continues to stretch. "I think my stuff is by the door," noted Reiko as she noticed her sack sitting by the front door while bending backwards. "I have three outfits while Cisne has two. The rest of the stuff is mostly scrolls and something called travel documents," remarked Reiko in a thoughtful pose while still in her backward bending position.

"Oh yeah!" exclaimed Reiko suddenly as she raise to her normal position and make her way to the sack sitting by the front door. As she did, she her hand into it and proceeded to rummage through it. After much rummaging, she took out a big stack of money and made her way towards the kitchen, peeking through the doorway as she went. "This is for you," remarked Reiko as she hands the stack of money to Joan. "I think you know to use this better than both me and Cisne. Our Master would usually take care of matters for us so I'm not so sure about using it properly. Besides, we have plenty, so you can have more if you like," noted Reiko as she held the stack of money in her hand, which appears to amount to at least a at least five thousand in cash.

As they went to the skyscraper, Sakaki couldn't shake the feeling she was going into the lion's den, even though Ebony assured her otherwise. This feeling persisted even as she was brought before the woman named Sakuya and she also picked up the change in Ebony's voice and general attitude. Whoa, wait, was she just putting on an act to make me feel better? Aww, crap... This seemed rather bad to her when Sakuya made her introduction and was hoping that she wouldn't be scared. Sakaki surely wasn't comfortable, that was sure. "Well, not scared, just wary...I mean, this stuff hasn't happened to me until recently. I can't really tell who I should trust or not...put yourself in my shoes for a second." She said, being rather honest in her feelings. If this was a mistake to come here, at least Sakaki would be honest with her feelings to the end.

Hearing the sound of the bathroom door reopening both Raina and Kivarra turn catching sight of the brunette emerging dressed in a robe. Uncertain how she might react Raina quickly held the package behind her back while Kivarra hovered in the air."Hey. The Bathroom is now open. I have a luxurious bubble bath and bath salts there for you to use. I also have Shampoo and conditioner there. Feel free to use all of them, Princess," Tamao , pointing to the direction of the bathroom before heading for the kitchen.

The light purple-hair young woman let out a long heavy sigh after Tamao departed from the room. What was she to do now? After regaining her strength from drinking the small package that Kivarra had been sent out to retrieve it would seem rather wrong just to take off as Tamao taken such great lengths watching over her. Tearing the package open took few sips, “I cannot just leave now….†Muttering softly to which the white kivat nodded in agreement. “Raina!†she spoke up clearly for Tamao to hear, “Please call me by that name….if it is too much to ask. Hearing that title still feel….differently coming from others….â€

Not wanting to being appearing ungrateful had taken Tamao’s offer crept into the bathroom leaving the door partially open finishing her drink in privacy while taking a nice long bath cleansing her body. During that time Kivarra relayed only what she believed to be of importance to know pouring more bath salt into the tub. “When the time comes to cross that path…we’ll try to speak reason with them.†Raina agreed. “Um….Tamao….I’d like to say thank you….and apologize if I had appeared to been…too strong forward.â€

Walking away from the kitchen with a bottle of Strawberry milk in hand, Tamao proceeded to stand by the door to the bathroom, noticing the door was partially open. However, Instead of closing the door, Tamao left it as it is as she spoke up to address Raina. "It's no problem, Raina. It is my duty to watch over you, as my father had when you were still a child," she replied with a soft, reassuring tone. Upon having mentioned the word "father", Tamao looked down with a rather saddened expression, proceeding to lean her back against the wall. "...Father...we have finally met. I hope you are happy," she mumbled to herself, remembering the time when her father, Kaiji, entrusted upon her the task of Royal Guard. Letting out a sigh, Tamao took another sip of Strawberry milk.

Joan stared for a moment at the stake of money in Reiko’s hand before dropping the frozen breakfast burrito she had dug out of the freezer. With a shocked voice Joan replied to Reiko’s sudden offer. “I-I couldn’t e-except that much-“ Suddenly, Cornelius voice rang from the Tick Toc watch as an echoed scream. “Yes you can!!!” Joan quickly nodded in agreement before realizing that she wasn’t hearing her conscious, but the exact opposite. She shook the watch for a moment before slowly taking the money from Reiko. “I…I’m not sure what to say. You can both stay for as long as you want, of course. I expected a little money to help out with the rent…but this…” Joan was literally at a loss for words, though Cornelius wasn’t as he emerged from the watch. “In truth Joan here is a bit behind on the rent and bills. Your contribution will ensure she will continue to eat as well as have a well lit home and hot water. On her behalf I think ye kind maiden for your booty.” Joan snapped out of her daze in time to smack Cornelius against the head, at which time he corrected his previous statement. “-that is to say your Loot.”

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

Sakuya made a light grin as she replied to Sakaki’s statement. “Trust me; there are times where I still find myself in your position. Ebony does as well even though she would never admit it.” Ebony turned her head away from Sakuya and Sakaki which caused Sakuya to snicker before she walked back to her desk. “Don’t worry; all I need from you is a blood sample and a scan of your body. It is, more or less, just like a cat scan without the powerful magnate. So don’t worry about piercings getting yanked out or anything, you wouldn’t even have to get undressed. After that Ebony can take you home or we can provide a room for you at one of the local Hotels. Your call dear.” Sakuya spoke like a scientist and her emotions seemed a bit mellowed, yet her voice also carried a hint of care toward Sakaki’s well being.

As Joan was in a moment of shock when Reiko displayed her huge stack of money, Reiko noticed the frozen burrito falling from her Joan's open hand. Within that instant, Reiko struck out her left hand and lunge it towards the falling burrito, knocking it lightly from under it causing the burrito to dash upwards. In response to that, Reiko did a small crouching spin back and raise her left hand as the burrito landed gently in her hand. Once she felt the cold presence of the burrito, she grasp it tight only to realize that her grip is a little too strong causing the contents of the burrito to gush out on her hand. In plain view, all that happened in seconds while Joan is still in daze, deciding whether she should take the money or not.

By the time, Joan snapped out of it, Reiko was already on her feet with the stack of money being displayed in front of Joan while Reiko looks on at her burrito covered hand. "Ah hahaha. I guess I need more practice," noted Reiko awkwardly. As Joan took the money from her hand, Reiko had a puzzled look in response to Joan's comment. "What you should say? Um...how about thank you and let's hug?" remarked Reiko with a cheery tone as she had forgotten about the burrito incident while extending both hands gesturing Joan to hug her. That gesture was of course interrupted as Reiko then watch the spectacle unfold as Joan argued with Cornelius about the moral implications of accepting money from someone frivolously.

"Ah haha. Corn - kun! I didn't know you're a pirate. That's cute!" exclaimed Reiko with glee. "Aww! You two look sweet together!" remarked Reiko once again as she clap hands together while blushing. As she did, she then only realized that her hands are soiled with the smashed contents of the frozen burrito. "Guess I need a bath after all," noted Reiko with a smile. "Besides, you can have more of the money if you like. I've got plenty. We've been beating bad guys for years and most of the money is our reward for capturing them. But as monks, we have no use for them. However, our Master thought that it would be best if I bring some," explained Reiko with a cheery tone.

"We're here," Kaixa replied as they pulled up to a rather fancy house at the outskirts of the city. It was two stories tall, the thick iron gates encircling the entire house. It lay on top of the steep mountain ridge, where the city lights were glowing like a sea of lights below. He dismounted the motorcycle before pulling out the Kaixa phone from its slot. He flipped it open, thinking.

"Alright... If this is a phone, then what will happen if I do this..." he asked himself, pressing the red 'end-call' button. He pressed the button, the button emitting a small beep before the the armor receded, the gold channels retreating into the terminals at the side of the buckles of the metal belt.

"That was... easy." he said, sweatdropping at his brief lapse of common sense. He reached into the pockets on the side of his jeans, pulling out a small metal key. He opened a panel at the side of the gate, opening the lock, the gates sliding open. He remounted the motorcycle before driving towards the large house, the gates closing and locking behind him.

"My parents were very rich," Damon said, "I have two houses, my apartment in the city and this one, where they entertain their guests and use as a vacation home. It's far out from civilization, so we shouldn't get any press trouble." He was inwardly grateful that he didn't put his license on his motorcycle, it would have been very easy for others to track him down if he did so.

"I have five bedrooms here, my room is already marked. If you enter my room I will make your life a living hell. Each of you can claim a room for yourself, but stay out of mine, got it?" he asked, his voice slightly icy.

Takuya nodded "R-right!" he says, he reaches for the cyclone memory but before he could even grasp it, he found himself in Javiero's gasp. "A-argh!" He says Takuya struggles in his grip but found that he couldn't break it "L-let go!" He says

Another Golem fell to the feet of Ingram, Ingram began to pant, swinging the staff around he reverts back to his Mighty Form. In the distance however, he notices something: a Rider he had never seen before in the grasp of Javiero. Eyes squinting at the scene, he takes to the skies, leaping over building to building in pursuit.
