Kamen Rider Navy
Episode 3: A Blue History Part 2
By: Matrix
AAR Underground Base
Standing in the center of the testing room, Ken stands tall with a cocky smirk on his face. He looks down at the Rider System around his waist. He looks back up at the camera and nods. He then takes the N Key off the side of the belt and holds it in front of his face as he says sternly the activation word, “Henshin.” He then inserts the N Key into the Rider System and turns it to the left.
“E-R-R-O-R.” The Rider System announces as sparks begin to fly off of the belt causing pain for Ken.
Ken goes on one knee and removes the Rider System from his waist and throws it across the room. He breathes heavily as he punches the ground, “Why?! Doctor! Where the hell are you!?” Ken gets up and runs over to the Rider System kicking it across the testing room, “You said it would work this time! DOCTOR THOMAS!”
In the observation room, Doctor Thomas lifts up his glasses with his fingers and begins to rub his eyes in frustration, “I can’t keep working with him. I’ll kill myself before the day ends, I just know it.” He turns to the Commander standing next to him, as the Commander stares at Ken through the monitor in front of him, “This is the 5th test, Commander. There is nothing I can do. Even with the DNA Lock damaged, it has backup ‘locks’ that prevent anyone from using it except Walsh.”
The Commander looked over towards Doctor Thomas, “I figured as much. Alex is probably rolling over in his grave now with us tampering with his project. He made sure no one could use the Rider System except him. We just got lucky with Walsh.” He turns around and looks over to Doctor Thomas again, “Call off the testing, Doctor.” Says the Commander as he begins to exit the room.
“But what if the Reborns come back? Then what? Walsh is still in his coma, his wounds aren’t healing at all how the medical team had hoped they would. Now what?” Doctor Thomas asks.
“Hope.” The Commander says continuing to exit the room, “We just continue to hope.” The Commander goes up to the exit as the door slides opens automatically as the Commander walks out of the observation room. He stops, closes his eyes, and takes a breath, “Alex, I’m so sorry.” He says as he looks upwards, “I didn’t protect Walsh. I failed.” He opens his eyes and continues to walk down the hall.
As the Commander continues to walk around the Underground Base, he finds himself at Walsh’s medical room. There standing in the window is Kimberly, with her hair tied up into a bun, wearing her AAR Cadet uniform, and clearly exhausted, “Commander.” She said with a weak voice. She coughs to attempt to clear her voice, “Good to see you again, sir.”
The Commander smiles and nods, “Likewise Kimberly. But as we talked about, you don’t need to call me Commander anymore.” He sees Kimberly becoming embarrassed as she begins to remember her previous words from their argument early. He looks at Walsh to attempt to change the subject, “I signed your transfer papers today.” Kimberly quickly stares at him, “I-I thought after everything and our ‘discussion’ that is what you would want?”
“No.” said Kimberly, “After everything, Walsh, the Reborns or whatever, the argument, I need to stay. This is where I need to be. Can’t believe I just said that….”
“Kimberly we have devices that can erase this all from your mind. You can go back to being a data analysis and live a normal life and forget all of this madness. You got drug into this and I realize now that it was unfair for me to do that, it’s unfair to think anyone should be brought in here. You had no experience with any of this not even trained for war. This would drive any normal person insane. Getting you out of this madness is the least I can do.” Said the Commander.
“Then I’d just be running away. Even if you can erase my memories of all this, which by the way how in the hell is that actually possibly, how can I leave all of this? This is reality, whether I like it or not, this….this is where I need to be. Maybe the more I say that the less crazy it’ll sound, but as crazy and insane as this all is like you said, and I don’t even know truthfully how I am mentally stable at this point after seeing all this, I feel like I need to stay.” She looks at the Commander who looks back at her, “I’m not leaving, Commander. And if I’m staying, I guess I have to call you ‘Commander’.” She smiles and softly laughs.
The Commander also laughs, “Well then, ‘Cadet’, any update with Walsh?”
“Wounds are starting to heal, but still not as fast as the medical team had hoped but he’s better than he was. It’s only been a couple days since he has been in here so there isn’t much that can change in such a short time. Still can’t believe all the medical equipment you possess here. Miracle workers these doctors and nurses are.” Kimberly said as she yawns and stretches.
“Why don’t you go get some rest?” asked the Commander.
“I never was shown my room, if I even have one. I’ve been sleeping wherever I can find a comfortable spot but haven’t found that much time to sleep. I want to keep making sure that he is okay.” Says Kimberly.
“I’ll have one of the other Cadets show you to your room, but I still don’t get it. It’s almost been a week since you been here, only really met him once, and yet you care for him as if you’ve known him your whole life. Why is that?” The Commander asks.
“I….I don’t know. I think it’s because I see more in him; more than just the cocky arrogant Walsh everyone seems to know.” Kimberly looks at the Commander, “He showed me care and kindness, but it was his eyes. When he looked at me and told me he would protect all of us, I saw something in his eyes. Deep down I think there is a completely different Walsh, the REAL Walsh, and the one we know is just a façade. Reminds me of myself. People think I’m just the pretty girl who got everywhere on my looks and not my brains. For so long, I just went with it and acted like that pretty but dumb girl, but it just wasn’t me. That’s when I finally got my life together and changed for the better. I….I just wish I could talk to him, find out more. Help him change for the better too”
The Commander smiles again at Kimberly, “You are a very bright woman, Kimberly. Don’t ever fool yourself.” The Commander than begins to walk away, “Another Cadet should be here shortly to take you to your room. Unpack your belongings and rest. Maybe even sleep and have a nice dream.”
Kimberly nodded and looked back into Walsh’s room, “You think he’s dreaming?” she asked.
“Knowing Walsh.” Says the Commander, “He’s probably dreaming about how the hell he got into all this mess.”
Kimberly nods with a smile and continues to watch Walsh. Walsh, still in his medically induced coma, continues his flashback of his journey into becoming Kamen Rider Navy.
OPENING THEME: HARUKA KANATA UNLIMITS
----------------------------
Flashback
Walsh sits next in between his mother and father in the AAR transportation van, he continues to sit in silence attempting to hold in all of his mixed emotions about what has just occurred in the past several hours. He sniffs as he fights to hold back tears, as he remembers all the people who died at his graduation during the bombing. His mother, Tess Shin, rubs his back trying to comfort him, while his father, Dr. Alexander Navy, sits across from Commander Hunter who is on the phone.
“Yes. Yes. Thank you.” The Commander hangs up the phone and stares at Dr. Navy, who stares at the ground, “Alex you better look at me right now.”
Dr. Navy looks up showing no care on his face, “What you want Geoff?” asks Dr. Navy.
“What do I want? Where should I begin? Maybe we can begin about how you have moved out of the prototype stage with the Rider System for months now according to your assistant. Or how about you making the Rider System unusable to anyone but yourself?! It was supposed to be mass produced to fight the Reborns and Longshore!! How can we do that if YOU are the only one who can use it?!” as the Commander hits the van in anger.
Dr. Navy stares at the Commander, “Don’t raise your voice in front of my family, Geoff. And when I found out that the AAR wanted to mass produce it, I moved the Rider System out of prototype stage and moved it into the next stage, Version 2.0 or as I call it V2.” Dr. Navy then looks at Dr. Thomas who is seemingly terrified of everything going on in the argument continues to keep looking away from the conversation in fear of becoming blamed for telling on Dr. Navy, “Daniel, calm down. I’m not mad at you. You did your job.”
Dr. Thomas looks over to Dr. Navy opening his mouth as if he was going to say something in response to Dr. Navy, but says nothing and puts his head back down.
Dr. Navy smiles and nods and looks back at the Commander, “Geoff I told you from day one I didn’t want the Rider System to be duplicated or mass produced.” Says Dr. Navy.
“That isn’t your call!” exclaims the Commander.
“It became my call when I was put in charge of creating a weapon against the Reborns! I know about the meetings you had with the Government, the donors, and the facilities where you were going to take my creation and make an army with! You can’t hide anything from me! The Rider System is much more powerful than you think.” He starts to breathe heavily and stares deep into the Commander’s eyes, “I created the Rider System, I know its full capacity, so yes it is my call. And also, what gave you the damn right to make that call?”
“I was given the right when I became the Commander of the AAR!” exclaims the Commander as he quickly stands up hovering over Dr. Navy.
“I’M THE DAMN REASION YOU BECAME THE COMMANDER HERE!!” Dr. Navy yells back as he to stands up and gets right into the Commander’s face, “Don’t you remember? I was the first one brought in to the AAR, which I also named may I add, and they asked for a recommendation from ME on who should be put in charge of this secret covert operations section of the government. So I suggested you. In an instant I can have your commanding rank taken away. You may think you are in charge but I have more pull than anyone here.” Dr. Navy sits back down continuing to stare at the Commander, “Even though the government went behind my back after all I did for them to try to mass produce my creation, I still have connections within our corrupt government that would blow your mind away, and take away your job.” He looks away but quickly looks back at the Commander with an evil glare, “And I thought I could call you a friend, after all we been through. This is how you treat me, and of all times in front of my family.”
The Commander becomes angered and rubs his mouth while slowly sitting down, as he tries to not lash back at Dr. Navy knowing it is a battle he simply cannot win. He looks over to one of the soldiers, “Hand me that file over there.” The soldier nods and goes to pick up a manila folder laying on the seats in the van. He passes the manila folder over to Dr. Navy, “Even if you didn’t want it mass produced you have never had combat training or anything of that sort.” He looks up at Dr. Navy, “In that file is the soldier that was originally chosen to use the Rider System, to be this ‘Kamen Rider’ as you call it. We felt that he was the best choice to done the Rider System.”
Dr. Navy opens the file and skims through it reading over the information about the chosen soldier, “So now you’re saying I am not qualified to fight?”
“Yes.” Says the Commander.
Dr. Navy laughs softly, “You really are trying to piss me off, aren’t ya? Let me tell you something, but first let’s go over this soldier of yours: Private Kenji Lee, or ‘Ken’ as he likes to be called. Do you know that he is barely older that my son? Actually only 5 months older than Walsh. He is fresh out of basic training and while he tested highly in all combat and mental scores, he is not appropriately sufficient to be the user of the Rider System. The user of the Rider System needs not only the strength of a soldier, but the mind of a man who chooses to fight for the right reason, a bright mind.”
The Commander becomes confused, “A bright mind? You even said it yourself his mental test scores were high, and by far the highest out anyone in our United States Army today.”
“But is he fighting because he is a soldier and he feels it is his duty to his country, or fighting to save another life? I fight for one thing and one thing only, to protect the ones I love. Not because my commanding officer tells me to or because I feel it is my duty to my country, I will fight because I want my family to live in a world of peace.” Dr. Navy says as he looks over to Walsh and Tess. Tess is smiling with a tear rolling down her eye as Walsh has his head in his lap crying. Dr. Navy goes over to Walsh and lifts his head up, as he looks more angry than saddened, “Walsh, are you okay?”
“Dad.” Walsh says looking at Dr. Navy, “Those…..those things, Uncle David create them?”
Dr. Navy hesitates but slowly nods at Walsh with Tess hitting Dr. Navy, “Alex, no! Don’t you-”
“He needs to know, Tess! He saw what happened…There is no more hiding, not anymore.” Dr. Navy looks at Walsh, “Uncle David…..he somehow was able to create a chemical of some sorts to bring people who died back to life, or what he thought, so he could bring Aunt Amy back to life. But when you mess with science like that and try to become God, things tend to go terribly wrong.”
“So that chemical, made dead people those ‘Reborns’ like you called them.” Walsh looked down, becoming angry and yelling as he hit the van and kept hitting the inside of the van until Dr. Navy grabbed Walsh and held him tightly.
“Walsh stop!” exclaims Dr. Navy.
“NO! Those things….they killed my friends, their friends, and their families…..if there is an army, I want to be a part of it. I’ll fight beside you dad, because I’ll send every single one of those monsters back to their graves and kill Uncle-no, he’s not my uncle anymore. I’ll personally kill Dr. Longshore myself!”
End of Flashback
-------------------------------------
Dr. Longshore’s Lair
Dr. Longshore sits in his throne as he begins to ponder his current scheme, “Sharks and Jelly will bring me more bodies to revive into the don of the new age for humanity while the Dark Rider continues to be kept alive in the Serum Chamber while his genetic altercations and enhancements finish in full cycle. Yet, I still feel as if there is something…..something that lingers in the shadows that will become a nightmare for me in my conquest.” His eyes widened, “The Rider System.” He snarls, “What if he lives….what if Walsh lives and the Rider System is intact. I thought it to be destroyed before and I was wrong….” Dr. Longshore looks over to the Dark Rider as he is in the Serum Chamber, “A few more seconds both Walsh and the Rider System would have been destroyed.” Dr. Longshore pounds on the arm rest of his throne, “WHY?!” He stands up and begins to stomp angrily, “Why did you have to come into my life Alexander Navy?! My life was fine before I met you! YOU were there when Amy died, YOU went to her funeral, YOU wept with me, Tess wept with me, but why wasn’t that enough for you to understand why I am doing this?! WHY WHY WHY?!” He then begins to breathe heavily and puts his head down, “You left me no choice but to kill you…..” He then looks up, “And now you leave me no choice but to kill Walsh as well, and destroy the Rider System once and for all. This war……lies on your deathbed, Alex.” He storms off into the shadows of the lair.
Out of the shadows walks out General Falco and General Beet side by side. They stop as they both stare into the direction that Dr. Longshore walked. General Beet sighed, “Ya know, this whole Dark Rider dude is really starting to piss me off! We used to be his prized warriors, now we’re in the same ranks as…..oh God what if we’re in the same ranks as Jelly?” says General Beet.
“We’re not.” Replies General Falco, “There is more to this Dark Rider than I think Master is willing to reveal to us.”
“Well one way or another, we’ll find out who the hell he is. He’s the same as us, we just don’t get shiny army to flaunt around.” Said General Beet.
“We don’t need armor, we’ll show Master that we are the superior Reborns, and that the Dark Rider is the one who is inferior. We will continue our conquest in the name of the Master and bring in the don of evolution for humanity, the don of the Reborn. Hehe” Said General Falco as she begins to laugh softly.
“Well aren’t you a maniacal monster. Say, isn’t Sharks supposed to be rampaging with Jelly by now? I feel that is a perfect opportunity to prove to the Master our awesomeness!” asks General Beet.
General Falco snaps her fingers as a large monitor lights up showing the city and its people, “It’s about to begin.” She says with a smirk.
--------------------
Flashback
AAR Secret Base
Inside of a government in the main part of the city, lied the original secret base for the AAR. Dr. Navy, Tess, and Walsh all were finally transported to the base as Walsh and his mother both are being attended to in one room while Dr. Navy is being attended to in a separate room.
Dr. Navy sits on a medical bed in the separate room with Dr. Thomas attending to Dr. Navy’s injuries. He grimaces in pain as Dr. Thomas wraps a bandage around an area on Dr. Navy’s injured arm, “Daniel, I told you to get one of the medical team members, AHH! Be careful!”
“Sorry! And I couldn’t find any of them. They are all attending to the graduation bombing. We luckily were able to find some survivors and they are being treated immediately. So for the time being you are stuck with me, Dr. Navy.” Said Dr. Thomas.
“Daniel, I told you to call me Alex.” Said Dr. Navy. “By the way, how’s my family doing?”
Dr. Thomas finished wrapping Dr. Navy’s arms and looked at Dr. Navy, “Considering all thing they are doing okay.”
“Good. I haven’t really seen them since we reached the base. Walsh was more upset than I ever imagined.” Said Dr. Navy.
“Walsh just witnessed how many of his friends die? Within the past couple hours in basically a blink of an eye?” said Dr. Thomas, “He also found out that his Uncle went insane and created monsters that threat to basically take over humanity oh and that same Uncle was responsible for bombing his graduation. And don’t let me forget that his dad is fighting in some metal armor as….what do you call that thing the Rider System transforms you in?”
“Kamen Rider.” Dr. Navy said, “I call it the Kamen Rider, or Masked Rider. In Japan, there were folktales during wars about the mysterious Masked Riders. They would ride into battle and defeat any opponent in a blink of an eye. They were known as the strongest warriors ever to see a battle ground. They were just myths, but I always enjoyed those stories which is why I named the System after those stories.” Dr. Navy looked away for a moment and just shook his head, “Here I am talking about fairy tales, and all I can think about is Walsh. But I see what you’re saying Daniel, I can’t say I would act much different than Walsh is. I created the Rider System to stop David before he did anything like he did at Walsh’s graduation. I wanted to hide this from them, from everyone. I failed. Failed miserably”
“You didn’t fail, Dr.- I mean Alex. No one could have known when Longshore was going to attacked.” Said Dr. Thomas. “Also, the keyword you use to access the Rider System’s armor, ‘Henshin’, doesn’t that have something to do with Japan and your time studying over there?” asked Dr. Thomas.
“Henshin, mirai no rokku o kaijo suru tame no kagi. It means, ‘Transform, the key to unlocking the future’. It was a saying that my mentor Dr. Shiro Kazumi used to tell me when I studied under him in Japan. I met him when I was finishing up my doctorate, he would come to America and teach as an adjunct. I was so fascinated by his work and research that I followed him to Japan. I learned so much over there and most of my research and findings were done because of what I learned from him. My research always was to transform medicine, and unlock the key to eliminating illnesses. I chose the word ‘Henshin’ in honor of him. Even when I was told to build a weapon to defeat David, I use that same saying to motivate me to create the Rider System. I think that’s why I am so obsessed with the Japanese culture, because of Shiro Kazumi.” Said Dr. Navy as he looked at Dr. Thomas, who became teary eyed, “Oh come on Daniel, and it wasn’t that emotional!”
“YES IT WAS!” said Dr. Thomas as he wiped the ears off his face, “But speaking of the Rider System, there is something I need to talk to you about. The Rider System was damaged...”
“Yes I know, it was just the voice activation lock, so it doesn’t lock on my particular vocal tone, but just a word. Nothing I didn’t know. How did you do a diagnostic test on the Rider System without me knowing?” asked Dr. Navy.
“I kind of hacked into the Rider System’s internal database and rewrote the System’s protocol temporarily to run the diagnostic test. Commander Hunter’s orders.” Dr. Thomas said quickly as he started to turn his head away in fear of Dr. Navy’s response.
Dr. Navy smiled, “Daniel I can’t even be upset. That is just impressive! It took me years to write the System’s protocol and bios.” Dr. Navy walked over to a computer in the room and opened up the AAR operating system, “Let’s pull up those diagnostic shall we?”
Dr. Thomas slowly turned around and went over to the computer where Dr. Navy was sitting and leaned over him to begin typing in the computer to give access to Dr. Navy the findings that Dr. Thomas had found, “There.” Dr. Thomas points at the screen as an abnormality is shown on the screen and causes Dr. Navy to look for his glasses and quickly put them on his face.
“No….It was damaged…NO NO NO!” Dr. Navy punched the screen as he quickly got up, “Damnit the DNA lock is fixed beyond repair! How the hell did I miss that?”
“Alex, just calm down.” Said Dr. Thomas, “Listen, the Rider System is still intact, but the DNA lock was damaged during the explosion along with the voice lock. You needed a full diagnostic test to see that it was damaged. But only partially. See, your DNA is still required to access the Rider System, just not 100% DNA, only a partial sample is needed.”
Dr. Navy looked back towards Dr. Thomas, “Partial, so, a relative could use the Rider System?”
“Yes.” Said Dr. Thomas, “I know you have told me in the past that you have no brothers, both parents are dead, and no other immediate family. Truthfully Alex, the only one who would be able to use the Rider System next to you is well, Walsh.”
“Well.” Dr. Navy said, “That will never happen. For as long as I’m alive, Walsh will not fight in this war. Walsh will NOT be the Kamen Rider. Daniel, you need to promise me that you and Geoff protect Walsh if anything happens to me, you understand? Never, let Walsh be put in harms way, that includes the Rider System.”
"Alex, you have my word." replied Dr. Thomas.
Unbeknownst to both Dr. Navy and Dr. Thomas, Walsh is seen standing outside the room listening in as his eyes are wide open and staring off into the distance, “Henshin? I-I could….I could be the Kamen Rider?” Suddenly, an alarm goes off in the AAR Base as Walsh becomes very confused and begins to panic.
End of Flashback
----------------
AAR Underground Base
As the alarm is going off in the AAR Underground Base, Kimberly slowly starts to wake up and lets out a very loud yawn. She wakes up seeing that she is in her new room within the base, “I can’t believe I actually made it in my room.” She yawns again and starts to rub her ears because of the alarm, “Oh will you-OH MY GOD THE ALARM!” She quickly gets up and storms out of her room and heads towards the Deck. She quickly passed Walsh’s medical bed, without her noticing that Walsh was missing from the bed itself.
On the other side of the medical room, Walsh is standing up breathing heavily, with all his IVs pulled out and blood dripping from his arms. He is staring angrily at the wall, as he hears a nurse come in the room and gasp. He turns around and stares at her while she is standing in shock.
“Oh my goodness…Walsh! But you-” says the Nurse.
“Sorry, the alarm woke me up. I need bandaged up. Now.” He says nonchalantly and smirks.
Meanwhile, Kimberly enters the Deck with Commander Hunter and Doctor Thomas watching one of the monitors located near where they were standing. Kimberly looks at the same monitor, “Oh my God...” she says as she sees the destruction being caused by both General Sharks and the Jellyfish Reborn,
“The shark one, it looks so much more powerful than the Alligator Reborn.”
“We believe that is one of Dr. Longshore’s trump cards. In Dr. Navy’s original data of the Reborns, he noted that during the initial testing of the Reborn serum, three of the original testing were revived and then mutated. They were believed to be the first of the ‘pure’ Reborns, and possibly the strongest. We think the Shark Reborn is one of the first three.” Said Dr. Thomas.
“Pure?” asked Kimberly.
“A pure Reborn are Reborns such as the Alligator Reborn and the Shark Reborn. They fully mutated into a monstrous form but still have their original human form. Unlike the Skeleton Husks are ‘impure’ and did not mutate fully to a Reborn and have no human form.” Said the Commander, “Dr. Thomas, is he ready?”
“If you’re talking about me, then yeah, I’m good.” Everyone turns around to see Walsh leaning against the doorway to the Deck and slowly putting on his AAR uniform jacket, “Sorry, took a little nap.”
Kimberly became enamored with happiness, “WALSH!” She runs over to him wrapping her arms around Walsh squeezing tightly as he grunts in pain, “Oh, sorry! I didn’t know you were even awake!”
“Kind of just happened. So, I see two Reborns terrorizing the city, and I caught the last bit of your little debrief. I can take the Shark Reborn if-who the hell is that with the Rider System?” Walsh points to another screen in the Deck showing Ken getting on his own personal bike, revving his engine and riding off out of the deck. Walsh turns towards the Commander as the
Commander holds his hands up.
“Walsh, we didn’t know when or even if you were going to wake up and we needed to take precautionary measures!” Before the Commander could talk anymore Walsh lands a punch right to the Commander’s jaw knocking him over. The entire Deck becomes filled with shock as they all just stared.
Walsh goes over to Doctor Thomas and picks him up by the collar, “If you did anything to the Rider System, I swear Doc it will be your biggest regret.”
“No, I didn’t Walsh I swear.” Said Doctor Thomas, “I gave Ken a blood transfusion using the blood samples we took from you when you were in your coma. I don’t even know if it will work. We needed to protect the city Walsh!”
Walsh throws Doctor Thomas turns the Commander, “Neither of you have the right to give someone else the Rider System! I am the only one who can use it and you need to get that through your thick skulls! I-I’m not even sure if I have the right to use it, but I do because my father gave his life to protect everything and everyone he cared for. Include you two bastards. I’m not a soldier so I have no remorse for hitting you or throwing you, but maybe I should have remorse in thinking you two could honor my father’s legacy.” Walsh turned around and went over to a soldier sitting at a computer,
“Move.” The soldier quickly got up scared and gave Walsh his seat. Walsh quickly started typing into the computer and brought up a program in which he began transferring something to the cloud system for the AAR.
“What are you doing?” Says Doctor Thomas as he gets up along with the Commander.
“As I was trying to say before, I can beat the Shark Reborn if I have the V3 system activated. You are taking too long, so I’m finishing the program now.” Said Walsh.
“Walsh it has taken me almost 7 months to try and figure out the coding your father used for the V3 system, it could be another year until I finally-”
“Done.” Says Walsh, “V3 system protocol is uploading. Should be done when I catch up to Ken.”
“If you think you are going out there you are more idiotic that I thought! You just woke up from being in a medically induced coma for almost a week!” said the Commander.
“If anybody is going to fight the Reborns, it will be me.” Walsh walks over to a communication system and presses a button, “Get the Navy Cycle ready for launch, NOW!” he says as his voice echoed over the intercom. Walsh storms out and begins to run down the hall. Suddenly, Kimberly comes running after him and stops him.
“You can’t be serious.” She says.
“What?” said Walsh.
“Walsh….how can you just act so tough and go out risking everything including yourself without ever being scared? How can you just wake up from almost dying and do those things. Walsh I don’t get you! I’ve read over your file, completely, again and again. I read what happened that night with your dad….”
---------------------
Flashback
Walsh begins running down the hallway as Husks are attacking everyone in the AAR’s base, “I got to find mom!” he keeps running as two Husks come around the corner and start to walk towards Walsh, , “Oh no.” Suddenly, Dr. Navy comes jumping in knocking down the two Husks.
“Walsh, run now!” says Dr. Navy as he begins to run holding the Rider System in the silver case. He starts swinging the case around knocking away the Husks, “Walsh hurry! We have to find your mother!”
“She’s on the second floor!” Walsh says. Walsh and Dr. Navy continue to run and head up the stairway and enter the second floor main hall, "Dad, you need to transform into that thing now!"
"I need to find your mother first." As they reach the main hall on the second floor they were greeted with an ambush. Standing there is a large group of Husks and in the middle of the group stands Dr. Longshore holding a gun to Tess’s head, holding her hostage, “David….Leave Tess out of this.”
“Why should I David?! Maybe I should just kill her so you what I feel when I lost Amy! So you can feel and know why I am doing this! TO BRING BACK THE ONE I LOVE!” exclaimed Dr. Longshore.
“David you seem to forget that Amy was my sister! My best friend! I did everything I could to try and save her! The countless hours I put in trying to find a cure and pay for other researchers to find one! I did everything I could to save my little sister!” Dr. Navy yelled.
“But you didn’t do enough! And at the time neither did I, but now I am. This research will bring her back to me! To us! Join me Alex. Last chance, just join me. Help me save your sister, my love.”
“David, this is not research. This is an abomination of science! You’ve created monsters! Creatures that live in fairy tale, you have brought them into reality! I will never work alongside this cause. What do you think Amy would say if she saw this?” asked Dr. Navy.
“SHUT UP!” Dr. Longshore pointed the gun at Dr. Navy and shot him three times in the left side of his chest, as Dr. Navy fell to his knees putting his hand over the blood.
Walsh grabs his father and holds him, as Dr. Longshore throws Tess over to the group. Tess crawls over to Dr. Navy and holds him too as they lay him down on his back, “Dad…..dad don’t die.” Says Walsh.
“Alex, Alex honey. Hang in there it’s going to be okay.” Says Tess.
“Walsh….” Dr. Navy says struggling to speak and keep his breath,
“Protect…..the ones….you love….” Dr. Navy breathes his last breath as he dies in the arms of Walsh and Tess.
“Dad? Dad?! DAD!!!!!” Walsh screams in anger and stares at Dr. Longshore, who does nothing but watch his former friend die by his hand.
“No more getting in my way Alex. No more.” Dr. Longshore walks away, “Kill them.” The Husks begin to slowly go towards Walsh and his mother as they try to move away from them crawling backwards.
As they begin to crawl, Walsh bumps into the silver case holding the Rider System. Walsh stares at it, quickly remembering what Doctor Thomas and his father had discussed earlier that Walsh could use the Rider System. He stares at his mom who is crying in fear. Walsh stops crawling to open the silver case. He takes the Rider System out and wraps it around his waist.
“Walsh….Walsh what the hell are you doing?!” Tess asks screaming at Walsh.
“Protecting the ones I love.” Walsh closes his eyes, remembering the conversation he overheard before and remembering the keyword his dad used. He opens his eyes and yells, “HENSHIN!”
End of Flashback
-----------------
AAR Underground Base
Walsh wipes a tear from his eye as he looks at Kimberly, “Protect the ones you love. Those were my dad’s last words. Those words right there are how I still fight, how I am so scared fighting these Reborns because I don’t know how strong they really can be. I fight even if I am in so much pain, because I know deep down inside my dad was scared too. I know that he was in pain, but he sacrificed his life to protect the ones you love. That is how I keep doing this. That is why I am not just the Kamen Rider, but Kamen Rider Navy. Fighting with my dad’s name is a constant reminder of why I fight.”
Kimberly stands there with a shocked face, “Walsh….”
Walsh nods and turns, running down to the hanger. When he gets down to the hanger, he hops on his Navy Cycle and quickly rides out. “I will continue your legacy father. I promise.”

Downtown in the City
General Sharks and Jelly continue to destroy the city and kill people left and right, “This is fun Sharks! All these new bodies for the Master! We really should do this more often!” says Jelly
“How about you just focus?” says General Sharks. Suddenly, a sound of a motorcycle comes closer and closer to the two Reborns, “Ah, now the show begins.” He turns around as the motorcycle goes flying in the air with Sharks grabbing the front tire and throwing the rider off the motorcycle tossing the motorcycle to the side. The rider lays on the ground as he slowly gets up, taking off his helmet revealing him to be Ken, “You aren’t who I am looking for.” Said General Sharks.
“I’m a better match for you than the one you are looking for.” Says Ken. Ken takes a step towards the bike as Jelly walks over to the bike and takes the silver case, “Put that down!” yells Ken. He then runs over to Jelly and lands a round house kick to her knocking her over with her dropping the case. He grabs the case and puts it out the ground quickly opening it, he stares at the Rider System and rolls up his sleeve, showing the tube in his arm that is causing the transfusion to happen using Walsh’s blood, “I’m going to show him why I am the true user of the Rider System.” Ken wraps the belt around his waist, detaching the key from the belt and tossing it in the air, “Henshin!” He catches the key and inserts the key into the keyhole, turning it to the left.
“E-R-R-O-R” announced the Rider System as sparks began shooting from the belt forcing Ken to throw the belt off of him, “No NO NO! Not now!”
“You….You kicked me!” The Jellyfish Reborn runs over to Ken and starts to beat on him, shocking him every hit she lands. Ken finally collapses from the shocks and lays there unconscious, “Sharks lets tear this city until there is nothing left!!”
“He can really piss you off can’t he?” Jelly and Sharks turn around as Walsh bends over and picks up the Rider System from the ground, “He usually needs a good beating to shut up.”
“You.” Says General Sharks, “You are the Kamen Rider my Master speaks of. The one who I will kill with my bare hands!”
Walsh smirks, “See here’s the issue.” Walsh wraps the belt around his waist, “I’m not that easy to kill. And another thing.” Walsh bends down again to pick up the key on the ground from when Ken through the belt off, “I’m not dying until I kill YOUR Master with my bare hands! HENSHIN!” Walsh quickly inserts the key and turns it to the left.
“N-A-V-Y-M-O-D-E” announces the belt, as the navy light materializes into the Rider Armor, and attaches itself to Walsh’s body, until he becomes Kamen Rider Navy. He points at General Sharks, then signals them to come to him, “Bring it.”
“I’ve had enough! Jelly! Get him!” yells General Sharks.
“My pleasure Sharks!” Jelly runs over to Walsh as he quickly runs towards her. Walsh lands a punch to her stomach as she begins hitting him with her electrical arms quickly.
Walsh backs off as Jelly as the technical parts of the Rider System are beginning to go haywire because of Jelly’s electrical arms, “Damnit.” He quickly detaches the Navy Blaster and begins shooting at Jelly.
Jelly dodges the first few shots but eventually is hit by several of them, “AHH!” Jelly falls down but begins get back up.
As Jelly tries to get back up, Walsh takes the N Key and inserts it into the belt turning it to the right
“S-H-O-O-T-I-N-G” the Rider System announces.
A Navy electrical surge is sent to Navy’s right arm holding the Navy Blaster as Walsh aims at Jelly as she finally gets up. He aims and shoots it right at her. In an instant Jelly is destroyed.
General Sharks stands in the back of where Jelly was standing and snarls, “Jelly was too weak. Let me show you what a REAL Reborn can do! ARGH!” He runs towards Walsh jumping in the air tackling Walsh to the ground.
The two begin to roll around as Walsh finally kicks him off. He take the N Key and inserts it into the Navy Blaster transforming it to the Navy Battalion Stick. Walsh charges at General Sharks and strikes at him, doing very little damage. He tries striking again, but General Sharks grabs the Navy Battalion Stick mid attack and throws it to the side. He then begins striking Walsh at a fast rate knocking Walsh to the ground. Sharks than kicks Walsh backwards.
Walsh lays on the ground trying to get up, but begins to feel his current and previous injuries come together. He stares at General Sharks who is laughing at Walsh.
“Puny humans! You’ll never know this power unless you reach our level of evolution! The Master’s dawn of humanity will make the strong gods and the weak deceased.” Says General Sharks.
Walsh becomes angered with what General Sharks said, “You think you’re Master is a god? You’re Master is nothing more than a monstrous mad man!” Walsh finally stands up, “NIC, I need an update on the V3 system protocol upgrade.” NIC responded by showing that the download of the V3 system was complete. Walsh smirked within the helmet of Navy’s armor, “Let me show you real power.” Walsh takes off the N Key from the belt, and turns the outside ring of the middle circular part of the bell until now the green arrow is on top of the black arrow. Walsh holds up the Key, “Henshin!” he inserts the key and turns it to the left.
“B-L-A-S-T-E-R-M-O-D-E” The Rider System’s armor is now covered in a green light, as Navy’s armor begins to change, with both shoulder pads become squarer. Then, two large rifle blasters emerge in Walsh’s hands as he aims both of them at Sharks.
“Come on fishy.” He starts shooting at Sharks at a rapid rate as Sharks is too slow to even attempt to dodge. Sharks became angry and charge at Walsh. Walsh dodges the attack continually shooting at sharks. Finally Walsh throws one of the rifles in the air as he inserts the N Key into the keyhole of the Rider Belt turning it to the right.
“R-I-D-E-R-B-L-A-S-T” announces the Rider System.
Walsh then catches the rifle as two green electrical surges are sent to Walsh’s arms. He aims at sharks and shoots both of the rifles at Sharks knocking him backwards several hundred feet out of sight from Walsh. Walsh stands there and looks at the two rifles and his new forms, “Dad, you are one genius.”

Dr. Longshore’s Lair
Dr. Longshore sits on his throne as General Sharks comes stumbling into the presence of his Master. Dr. Longshore stares at Sharks as Sharks looks up to Dr. Longshore.
“Master, I-”
“You are nothing to me Sharks. You promised me that if the Kamen Rider would return you would defeat him, instead you were beaten immensely! BE GONE! OUT OF MY SIGHT! You are a disgrace to the new order. Dr. Longshore sits in his throne as Sharks goes off into the darkness, Longshore became angered, and “I should have killed you Walsh when I had the chance. Who knew you would be more of a pain than your father, or even stronger than him. He’s mastered the Rider System’s power already. This….this is not good.”

AAR Underground Base
Walsh sits in his room, as he stares at a picture of his family when he was a young boy. Then, Kimberly knocks at the door, as Walsh quickly puts the picture away.
“Picture of your family?” Kimberly asks.
“Yeah.” Said Walsh. He pulled it back out, handing it to Kimberly, “Here.”
Kimberly looked at the picture and smiled, “You were adorable.” She smiles and laughs as Walsh laughs too.
“Yeah, those were the good days.” Walsh says.
Kimberly hands Walsh backs the picture. There is a silence in the room as Walsh again begins to stare at the picture, “Walsh, you never said or in your files what happened to your mom?”
Walsh put the picture down as his head slowly dropped and didn’t say a word.
“Oh no Walsh…I’m so sorry.” Says Kimberly, thinking she knew the fate of his mother.
“She’s in protective custody. And has been for the past year.” Said Walsh,
“After I used the Rider System for the first time, I destroyed the Husks and saved my mom. My dad’s body got toppled over from the building collapsing, Longshore released another bomb trying to kill everyone inside. After I saved us, I joined the AAR knowing I was the only one to use the Rider System. I gave up everything to fight. My mom begged me not to go but I know I had to. I was the one who suggested protective custody. It was to keep her safe from Longshore finding her. She has 24/7 security around her. She’s safe. She has no idea where I am, and hasn’t talked to me since she went under.”
“Walsh…”
Walsh looks up at Kimberly, as he gets up and starts to walk out, “Protect the ones you love. Even if it hurts you.” Walsh walked out of his room. Kimberly just stood there saying nothing and walked out of his room as well, as Walsh’s door slid closed.
Meanwhile, Dr. Thomas sits in his office as he sits working on his computer. Suddenly, Dr. Thomas’s door opens but does Dr. Thomas does not move from his chair or even to look back to see who it is. Commander Hunter walks in as the door slides close behind him, “Daniel. I see you’re hard at work.”
“I am.” Replies Dr. Thomas.
“You know why I am here.” Says the Commander
“No.” says Dr. Thomas
“You don’t know why I am here?” asked the Commander.
“No, I’m saying ‘no’ to your request. I won’t do it.” Said Dr. Thomas sternly.
“Daniel, a year ago you were an emotional, goofy, and easy going. Now you are going all stern on me. What happened to you?” asked the Commander.
“When Alex died, it changed me. He used to always tell me that I was going to be his successor someday. And when that time finally came, I didn’t feel honored, not the way I was. So I changed. I had to so I could honor Alex’s work to the best of my ability. And I will honor his work by saying no to you.”
“Daniel, you and I both know Walsh needs this to happen.” Says the Commander.
“The V3 system will be just fine. Walsh will be fine.” Says Dr. Thomas.
“Daniel, we don’t know if the V3 system will be enough against the Dark Rider. I’m not asking anymore Daniel, it’s now an order.” Exclaims the Commander.
“NO! I won’t do it! It goes against everything that Alex ever worked for! I won’t copy his work!” yells Dr. Thomas.
“Daniel, you and I both know that it will only keep Walsh safe and alive. I’m going to do whatever it takes to keep him alive. It’s the least I can do. I-I made a promise...”
THe Commander walks over to Dr. Thomas, “Daniel please. We almost lost Walsh once, I don’t want to take the chance of losing him again.”
Daniel puts his head down and looks up at his computer angered. He types into the computer as a program is pulled out titled, ‘PROJECT CRIMSON’. Doctor Thomas stares at the screen and shakes his head, “Alex, forgive me.” He turns around in his chair to the Commander, “Project Crimson as of now is initiated.”
