Chapter Text
The sound of rain was heard, as we see a bus driving through the city which looked to be half destroyed after some kind of attack.
The bus soon came to a stop, as two people walked out. The first was a young man that had an orange hoodie that hid his face, a black coat over his body and a pair of blue jeans with black runners, he soon opened up his umbrella and lifted it up to cover himself and his companion.
His companion was a young girl that looked to be the same age as him in a school uniform with shoulder-length black hair, with a white bow tied around the back, carrying a bouquet of flowers.
The two remained quiet as they made their way towards their destination, a Cemetery.
We then see the girl on her knees praying after placing the flowers in front of the grave.
The youngman was continuing to hold up the Umbrella while he cleaned the grave before taking a step back to read the inscription.
TACHIBANA HIBIKI.
"I…I miss her so much" The girl sniffled, wiping her tears away.
"Yeah…" The young man muttered, looking up at the clearing clouds "...I miss her too…"
The scene flashed as we saw a new scene taking place.
We see an extremely futuristic looking city that was in absolute ruin, buildings crumbled to the ground, holograms glitching and staticy out and not a single person was in sight.
However, what replaced the missing people…was them. Mysteries were attacking and destroying the city, turning anyone who came into contact with them to dust.
No weapons could affect these monsters, making them an impossible force that humans couldn't beat.
However within this apocalyptic world, there was one person still fighting for the future of humanity.
"STEAM!" A large creature cried, as we saw a train flying through the sky well above the monster down below.
The train passed by the top of the building and dropped a man in his early thirties who lifted up what looked like a card the train went into before he looked at the chaos down below.
He was wearing a black leather jacket with an orange hoodie that had its hood up covering his face along with blue trousers and brown tactical boots. He also had a red device around his waist that had a clear screen, in front of it being some kind of device that had a fire design and two jets in the front, along with that was a card holder on his arm.
"Can't believe all of this has happened…" he muttered, looking at the chaos.
"So…will you two fight alongside me again?" He asked, before taking out two cards from the holder.
He looked at the two cards in his hand one was that locomotive train creature that was black in colour with a fiery design on it he uses with the number nine at the top right and a black background and at the bottom named Steamliner and nine purple bars. The other one was an orange grasshopper with the same fiery background with a number 1 at the top right, and at the bottom named Hopper1 and arrow bars with one orange.
"HOP! HOPPER!" The first card cheered, showing an orange cartoony grasshopper that looked like it could move around in the photo.
"STEAM! STEAMLINER!" The Locomotive also cheered, moving around a bit in the card.
"Thank you, you'll always be there for me." he smiled, before looking up with a determined look "Let's do this!"
He then proceeded to lift up Hopper1's card before turning it around and inserting it into the driver.
HOPPER 1! IGNITE!
A projection of the Hopper1 card appears as Hopper1 pops out and flies around him.
He followed this by lifting up the Steamliner card and turned it around, followed by him inserting it into the driver as well.
STEAMLINER! IGNITE!
Then another card projection with Steamliner popping out of the card appears on his left. The man spread both arms and then made poses with his hand before moving them to the front.
"Henshin!" he announces and pulls two levers with the two cards combining the split faces into one.
GOTCHANKO FIRE! STEAMHOPPER! ACHI!
The warrior was then engulfed in a flaming tornado that Hopper 1 and Steamliner joined him in , allowing us to see the silhouette of a warrior inside.
The flaming tornado then jumped off of the building as several flying monsters darted
towards him while the warrior pulled out a gun that looked like an arrow.
Spinning it in his hand the warrior fired several blasts towards the monster causing several of them to explode into dust.
The warrior landed on the ground while striking a pose, before looking up at the incoming monster.
He then opened up the card holder on his arm before taking out a fire card that had a monster which looked like a battery on it before sliding on the top of the gun and inserting it into the gun.
RAIDENJI! GOTCHARGE BUSTER!
Spinning the gun as it charged up energy, the warrior leapt up and fired a ball of electricity towards the monsters, shocking multiple at the same time before they all exploded.
The larger monsters noticed this and retaliated, firing several blasts towards the warrior causing a large explosion.
"GOLDDASH!"
The sound of a motorcycle was heard as we saw the warrior riding a golden motorcycle towards the large monsters.
Swerving out of the way from the monster's blasts before firing at them with his gun.
Putting his gun away, the warrior stood up on the top of the bike while it continued firing at them.
He then pushed the belt on his waist causing him to burst into several pieces of armour that flew up
Pulling the driver the warrior reformed into a kicking stance as energy charged up into his foot.
STE~AM~ HOPPER! BURNING~ FE~VER!
"I will…FORGE A NEW TOMORROW!" He declared, as he sent an energy charged kick towards several of the giant monsters and crashed right through them.
Skidding onto the ground the warrior struck a pose, as the giant monsters exploded behind him.
The man stood back up as he began shining, the only thing we saw was his glowing blue eyes "I will save this world…I promise…Hibiki…Elpis…"
Opening: Nibun no Ichi by Back On, lyrics by Jadenday Zero
I'm never alone, I know that our hearts are connected by fate
In a dark void we see Yuya standing in the city at night with his eyes closed.
Knowing that makes me want to see ahead
His eyes slowly open up and widen at what he sees
Come on and let's go, and connect all the colours in our dreams
Turning around, Yuya grins as he offers a hand whoever's he's looking at
And make up a rainbow that shines, so brilliant in the sky
We move past him to see a beautiful rainbow next to the blue sky.
Giving up saying that nothing will change… Even losing my own strength just to move.
We see Hibiki on a park bench looking down while Tsubasa was in front of a dojo training with her sword.
"What's so fun thinking that all the time?" You said smiling as you walked ahead…
A light then shines as the two look up with determined looks in their eyes.
(YEAH)
Feeling lonely as my heart sub comes to FLASHBACKS
The scene cut's to Hibiki while transformed punching one of the noises in the face.
Synchronising with you and having no MASH UPS
It then switches to Tsubasa slashing another in half while also transforming.
I know that we can make it in RIGHT NOW, READY SET GO!
Finally we see Kamen Rider Gotchard running ahead before jumping into the air.
I'm never alone, ever since the day you said that to me Everything seems so possible and free
We see Gotchard on Goldash driving off a ramp into the sky, before landing on to the street and driving ahead.
Along with your, everlasting smile so big and happy So grab onto my hand so tightly,
We then switch Elpis looking up as she saw Gotchard driving towards her while reaching his hand out making her smile as she took it.
Together as we are, there's nothing that we can't overcomeI feel that way since you are here with me
Elpis was now on the back of Gotchard's bike as they drove through the street passing by several Chemies along the way.
You make the strength that is missing on the right side of me Our strength as one I know that we, We'll take off to sky!
The two then looked up to see three dark figures looking down on them before looking at each other and nodding.
Don't stand there, never DON'T STOP (Don't stop)
Gotchard and Hibiki were doing a double punch attack towards a group of noise together.
I'll never leave you DON'T CRY (Don't cry)
Switches to Tsubasa swinging down towards Gotchard who blocked the attack with his arm, as the two glare at each other.
You'll never be alone right here 'cause EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT
Yuya then pumps his arm as he and Elpis look up at the blue sky and the rainbow.

Tachibana Residence
Third person P.O.V.
"Hmm~ Hmm~ Hmm~" A voice hummed, as we see in a house where someone was currently cooking in the kitchen.
"If you're gonna chase your dreams~" the person sang as he chopped up onions and herbs, mixing them together with minced meat.
"Don't shed your tears so easily~" he smiled, as he placed the completed hamburger steak on the frying pan to cook.
"Mou~ Yuya!" He heard, looking over to someone sitting on the couch watching the TV "Is the food ready yet, I'm starving!"
"It's just now cooking Hibiki, and don't worry I haven't forgotten the rice." The now named Yuya said, as he began filling in the member "It'd be easier if you would help me out."
"What! Of course I don't have to, it's the little brother's job to do what the big sister want's right~" she teased, looking at her brother
"Yeah yeah." Yuya smiled, as he checked on the hamburgers "Even though we're actually twins-" "THOSE EXTRA 7 MINUTES COUNT!"
This was Yuya Tachibana, a youngman about 13 years old with messy ash brown hair and blue eyes, wearing a white shirt with a blue t-shirt underneath and brown trousers.
The girl on the couch was his Twin, Hibiki Tachibana who was the same age as him with the same messy ash brown hair but with yellow eyes, currently wearing a white T-shirt with a pair of brown shorts while lounging on the couch.
Suddenly the two heard ringing as Hibiki went to check her phone and perked up "Oh! It's Miku!"
"Hmm? It's kinda late for a call isn't it." Yuya asked, as he put the food on the plate while Hibiki set up and answered the call.
"Hey Miku, what's up?" Hibiki asked, as she looked at her friend on a video call.
Miku was about the same age as Yuya and Hibiki with shoulder length black hair and a white bow on the back currently wearing a black T-shirt with a tank top underneath and a white skirt.
"Ah good you answered, is Yuya here too?" Miku asked, right as Yuya walked with the dinners in hand.
"Right here Miku, what's up?" Yuya asked, sitting next to the Hibiki and placed the dinners on the table in front of them.
"Well I was wondering if you two wanted to go to a Zwei Wing concert tomorrow? I just won three tickets in a raffle today!" she asked, making the two blink.
"Zwei Wing?" Yuya and Hibiki asked.
"Yeah! You haven't heard of them? They're these really cool idols. I definitely think you two would like them." Miku explained, while the twins looked at each other.
"I dunno, I've never been to a live concert before…what about you bro?" Hibiki asked, while Yuya leaned back.
"Hmm, well it does sound kinda fun and like you said, we've never been to a live concert before." Yuya smiled.
"Yeah guess you're right, alright sure I'll go Miku!" Hibiki nodded.
"Really? YAY! I'm so glad! This'll be so fun!" Miku cheered "Normally tickets like these are pretty hard to come by, I really lucked out for this."
"Ah! Now you're getting me excited." Yuya grinned, as Hibki looked up.
"Hmm, what do you think I should wear?" Hibiki hummed, while Yuya turned to her.
"Uh Hibiki, I think we should probably eat before the food gets cold." Yuya pointed out, causing Hibiki to gasp.
"AH! That's right! Sorry Miku, I'll call you back later." Hibiki apologised, before hanging up as the two dun into their food.
Concert hall
Third person P.O.V.
We see two girls in an empty room being monitored by several people as they are currently singing a song and practising their movements.
The first girl was Kanade Amou. Kanade is a tall girl at about 19 years old with long fluffy red hair with a shape of a feather that falls down to her waist and red eyes. Currently wearing a loose black shirt with a sports bra underneath and a matching pair of shorts with a white hooding wrapped around her waist.
The second girl was Tsubasa Kazanari. Tsubasa is a tall girl with blue hair and dark blue eyes. She has a side ponytail on the left side of her head that is longer than the rest of her hair, which falls to just above her waist and is cut straight. She was currently wearing a black sports shirt with a white tank top over it with a pair of blue shorts and blue leggings.
"And I'll support your right hand~" "With my power too~" The two sang together as beautiful music played behind them.
"When we're together~ Our singing hearts become our wings~ Flying higher! Even higher than the sun~!" the two finished pointing mics up into the light.
The two took a few deep breaths as the instrumental wrapped up until finally silence.
"YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! ALRIGHT!" Kanade cheered, finally breaking the silence while Tsubasa caught her breath.
"You're in high spirits today Kanade-chan!" One of the workers smiled, while Kanade spun around and gave him a thumbs up.
"You know it! I'm still going at full steam!"
"It looks like rehearsal's are going well." A voice said from the intercom "The preparations over here are going smoothly as well."
"Ah! Commander Kazanari!" Tsubasa blinked, as the two girls looked up.
"Yo Bossman! Were you watching us practice?!" Kanade yelled, making the voice laugh.
"Of course, I watched it all on the monitors over here, I know you already know this but tomorrow is-" "You're gonna say 'it's important' right? Don't worry about it, we already know that I'm telling ya it'll be fine."
"Kanade, don't be rude." Tsubasa frowned, elbowing Kanade in the arm.
"Oh come on Tsubasa, you're always way too formal." Kanade grinned, before jumping in and hugging Tsubasa "But I'll still praise ya for keeping your cool during our performances!"
"H-Hey!" Tsubasa blushed, as she was pushed back by Kanade.
"Looks like Kanade is in her usual energetic voice." A feminine voice said.
"That's not exactly true Ryoko-san." Kanade smiled, as she looked up at the window above them "We're in perfect form! Even better than before! Don't ya think?"
"Oi! Kanade!" Tsubasa frowned, before she was pushed by Kanade "H-Hey what are you doing?"
"C'mon Tsubasa! Let's race once around from the stands to the stage." Kanade grinned, as she pushed Tsubasa back.
We then moved up to the window so we could get a look at the two who were speaking.
The first was Genjuro Kazanari, Tsubasa's uncle. Genjuro is a tall, muscular man with gold eyes, spiky red hair and a goatee. He was currently wearing a red dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up, a pink tie with its end tucked into the left breast pocket of his shirt, light beige slacks and black and blue athletic shoes.
The second was Ryoko Sakurai,who was a tall woman with long hime-cut brown hair done up into a beehive shaped dome with a purple butterfly clip on the left side. She has purple eyes and wears glasses with red frames with yellow tinted lenses. She was currently wearing a loose, short-sleeved light-green shirt with a buckle belt and a tight black miniskirt and open-top pink shoes with slight heels and butterfly shaped straps.
"My my, such enthusiasm." Ryoko smiled, while Genjuro crossed his arms.
"It's fine as long as they understand…" Genjuro muttered, before looking down into another window "That we're gambling the future of the human race on tomorrow's concert…"
The room was a containment room holding a boulder that had pieces of some kind of armour sticking out of it.
"Project N… so we've finally reached this point." Genjuro frowned, as Ryoko walked up next to him.
"If my Scientific Theory is correct, tomorrow's experiment will return a fragment of the technology humanity once lost." Ryoko deduced "Kanade's body is starting to reach her limit, no matter what we must make tomorrow's experiment a success."
"Yeah, that's true…the complete Relic that can counter the noise…we must reboot the Nehtusian armour." Genjuro declared.
As this happened, we see Kanade and Tsubasa resting after going on their run.
"Jeez Kanade, you're way too fast for me." Tsubasa sighed, taking a few breaths "Even though you said it's for because we're practising on the stage today…something's weird with you Kanade…"
Kanade was silent for a moment before a smile grew on her face as she looked up at the concert hall "I'm just super excited for tomorrow."
The next day
Concert Hall
Third person P.O.V.
"SUGEI?!" "W-Wow! Amazing." Yuya and Hibiki gawked, as they saw the gigantic stadium filled to the brim with people all ready to watch Zwei Wing.
"I can't believe there are so many people here." Yuya gawked, seeing all the people around them.
"Y-Yeah oh my gosh, I think the whole population of Japan is here!" Hibiki nodded, looking around "But where is Miku? She said we should meet here."
"Maybe she got pushed back by all these people? Try calling her." Yuya suggested, looking at her.
"Ooh! Good idea, give me a sec." Hibiki nodded, pulling out her phone and typing in Miku's number. "Hey Miku? Where are you? We're already at the stadium!"
"Ah, sorry I thought you got my message, I actually can't go." Miku said, surprising the two.
"Eh? You can't go, but you're the one who invited us to this concert." Yuya asked, while Miku looked down.
"I know and I'm really sorry, but my aunt in Morioka got into an accident, so Dad's gonna drive us there now." she explained.
"Seriously?!" Hibiki frowned "What are we meant to do now, we barely know these singers."
"You two should still go, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity besides I was the one who dragged you out there so you should at least enjoy it. I'll send you the tickets now." Miku told them.
"Well I guess if you wanted us to get into their songs so much we might as well." Yuya guessed, as he rubbed his head.
"Yeah, you've got a point there…alright we'll go." Hibiki nodded, making Miku smile.
"Hey Miku, you're taking too long!" A male voice in the background called, as Miku jumped.
"Oh! Sorry I have to go now, looks like we're ready to leave now. I definitely want to hear what you thought of the concert next time we talk!" Miku told them before hanging up.
"Geez…" Hibiki sighed, looking down.
"Hey cheer up sis, at least you're not going to this alone." Yuya said, trying to cheer his sister up who laughed.
"Yeah…I guess you're right." Hibiki nodded, before smiling "Besides, what's the worst that can happen."
Changing rooms
Third person P.O.V.
Inside the backstage area of the stadium, the workers were putting the finishing touches on everything just to make sure everything was perfect.
As this is happening, we see Tsubasa, who was wearing a hooded poncho over her Idol outfit, currently sitting on one of the crates with her hands clasped together.
"Get rather boring, huh?" she heard looking over to see Kanade walking up and sitting next to her "I just want to go crazy out there."
"I know what you mean." Tsubasa sighed, with a nod making Kanade blink.
"Don't tell me… are you nervous?" Kanade snickered, poking Tsubasa with her elbow.
"Of course I'm nervous, Kanade!" Tsubasa pouted at her friend.
"It's only natural. Sakurai said today is especially-OW!" The bluenette was then interrupted by a flick to her forehead.
"Why are you being so serious? Lighten up!" Kanade smirked, trying to lighten up her best friend's mood.
"But Kanade, there's also your condition, are you sure you're going to be okay?" Tsubasa asked, as Kanade crossed her arms.
"I'm going to be fine, I know my limits so I won't push myself too hard, okay?" Kanade assured her "Besides, there's nothing that's going to stop me from playing today."
"Kanade…"
"There you two are." They heard as Genjuro suddenly appeared, walking up to the two girls.
"Commander." Tsubasa yelped, looking up at the man.
"Well, well, Old Man Genjuro!" Kanade grinned, before looking at him with a smug look "Come to wish us good luck?"
"I trust you two understand how important today is?" Genjuro asked.
"No need to worry Manager. We know that today is paramount blah, blah, blah." Kanade shrugged casually. "Just leave everything to us and make sure that hunk of rock doesn't blow up on us."
"I'll hold you to that, Kanade." Genjuro said. "And don't worry, it's in good hands. Today's performance will be paramount to mankind's future but are you sure you'll be okay about this? Unlike Tsubasa, you're gear isn't-"
"I'll be fine! Just leave the performance to us, alright?" Kanade smiled confidently, earning a nod from their manager.
As Genjuro walked off Tsubasa couldn't help but look at Kanade with a look of worry.
Kanade noticed this and smiled moving to hug Tsubasa "You're all frozen stiff Tsubasa, are you really that nervous about me?"
Tsubasa was silent at this while Kanade only smiled "You're so obvious, spending all that time worrying about me you know. It makes you take things way too seriously, being so nervous and worrisome all the time is liable to make you snap, and then I'll be the one worried about."
"Our songs are the only thing that can protect humanity right now, so we can't just stop singing." Kanade smiled, as Tsubasa looked at her.
"After all you're my precious partner Tsubasa! I know you'll be there to rescue me when I need it, as long as I'm with you I'm confident I can do anything!" Kanade smiled.
Tsubasa nodded as she wiped away her tear. 'Yeah she's right, the two of us are Zwei Wing, two wings that can fly to the end of the earth.'
Concert floor
Third person P.O.V.
"Woah, can't believe it's so crowded." Yuya muttered, looking around at all the people in the multi floored concert hall "And it's so big here, Miku was right this is a once in a lifetime chance."
"Yeah, I'm surprised we managed to get such great seats." Hibiki nodded before frowning "Too bad Miku couldn't come."
"Hey now! We'll just have extra fun for her too!" Yuya grinned, making Hibiki blinked before she nodded.
"Yeah! You're right! Ah, it's starting!" Hibiki smiled, as the room turned dark music started playing while the people around them started cheering.
(Play Gyakkou no Flugel)
Then feathers started to fall from the ceiling and in only a few moments' two females descended upon the were none other than Kanade and Tsubasa.
Kanade is wearing a light pink and hot pink strapless pleated dress with a light yellow petticoat, a large coral coloured bow and a right wing on her bustle. She was also wearing a light pink scarf and white heels.
While Tsubasa was wearing a high collared crop top with white shorts and a lowly belted pleated skirt cut diagonally from her left hip and a large light blue bow and a left wing on her bustle. She was also wearing white and blue stockings up to her thigh, and light blue boots with the left one reaching to her knee and the right reaching her ankle.
The two of them landed on either side of the centre tower and began to do a dance that mirrored the other.
While in the stands, Yuya and Hibiki cracked their glow sticks and began to cheer with a mob mentality.
"Can you hear it…?" The music playing passionately
Unleash it! Into the heavens!
"Can you hear it…?" The pulse of new life beginning
Let love! Fill up your heart!
Long ago! Far away! On that day! When the stars turned into our music!
Right when! The wind! Swept through Our hair! You and I made its beat into our lyrics
And so! Our dreams! Bloom forth!
As we head to the end of a world we've never seen before…
Yes, just believe! We'll create history with a light unknown to even the gods
Its shower of backlight! Shines on our future!
Won't you fly there with us?
Just feeling~~ on those days you can't fly~, weighed down by feathers soaked in tears, make a wish
And I'll support your right hand~
With my power, too~
When we're together~, our singing hearts~ become our wings Flying higher! Even higher than the sun~!"
Upon the song's completion, Tsubasa stood in front of Kanade, turned her back to her partner, dropped to one knee, and then the both of them raised their hands to the sky as one would in prayer.
Everyone was applauding to them and among them were Mitsuki and Hibiki. Mitsuki had mitted that they are fantastic at listening to their songs. Hibiki looks like she has the best time of her life.
(End song)
"We're not done yet, folks!" Kanade shouted to the crowd, riling them up further as she and Tsubasa began their next song.
As this was happening, we see the scientist underneath the Concert hall checking the reading on the Nethusian armour.
"Confirming the measurements are rising to acceptable levels, Phonic Gain growth rate is within the estimated range!" The researchers confirmed, as they analysed the glowing boulder holding the Nehtusian armour.
"Fufufu, I'd say this was a success, good work everyone!" Ryoko grinned, as everyone cheered.
"Phew, thank goodness." Genjuro sighed, before suddenly there were flashes of red warning lights everywhere "What's going on?!"
"The dampening systems can't handle the rising internal pressure!" A male scientist said, causing Genjuro's eyes to widen in panic.
"At this rate the relic will awaken and go berserk!" A female scientist said, as their experiment's test subject began to emit an energy that started to warp and convulse until…
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
"Eh? Is this part of the show?" Yuya blinked, as everyone in the concert saw a giant ball of fire erupted from the middle of the stage.
"What the?!" Hibiki gasped, as she saw something within the cloud "It…can't be…"
"IT'S THE NOISE!"
Then, everyone started to scream, for a reason several of the monsters from before, none called the Noise appeared in the sky, firing and dropping off its fellow Noise creatures.
Just the sight of the Noise caused everyone to run away while screaming for their lives as the Noise slaughtered Men, Women and Children alike.
"Hibiki! We need to get out of- AH!" Yuya cried, as he began to be pushed back by the crowd.
"YUYA!" Hibiki cried, being cornered by the crowd while Yuya tried to reach out for her only to be pushed further back.
"No! Yuya I- huh…" Hibiki blinked, as she noticed the two Zwei Wing members looking down at the Noise.
"We need to fly, Tsubasa!" Kanade told her friend "Only we can fight them!"
"B-But the Commander hasn't told us to fight yet! Don't risk your life Kanade!" Tsubasa told her, as Kanade looked back.
"Tsubasa, right now we're the only ones that can fight." Kanade told her before grasping Tsubasa's hand "So just follow my lead, okay."
"… Okay." Tsubasa nodded, before the two jumped off the stage as they began causing their bodies to shine.
"What in the world?" Hibiki gasped, as she saw the idol's bodies begin shining.
Kanade's outfit was instantly changed into a new armour, consisting of a white, black, and orange bodysuit that exposed her stomach, a pair of black thigh-high boots, a pair of bulky gauntlets on her wrist, and a pair of rabbit ear like headphones.
She then brought her hands together, causing her gauntlets to fuse and change into a white and orange spear with a red glass-like centre, which she used to piece through the bodies of the Noise causing them to dissolve into dust.
Tsubasa was donned in her own armour which consisted of a light blue and black bodysuit with forearmed gauntlets, black headphones, and a blade on each of her ankles. Her weapon was a white katana which, along with the blades on her ankles cleaved any Noise she came across.
"No way… is that really… Zwei Wing…" Hibiki muttered, watching the two of them fighting while continuing to sing.
"They're even still singing." She muttered, as she watched the two of them fighting together.
Back with Yuya he was still stuck in the crowd while being pushed towards the exit, with the noise moving in after them.
"DAH!" Yuya groaned, as he finally pushed himself away from the fleeing crowd as he took a few breaths.
"Hah, finally got out." He sighed, before looking around there luckily with no Noise in sight "Now I just need to get to Hibiki and get the hell out of here…"
Yuya then moved towards the railing and looked to see Zwei Wing fighting the noise "What the heck?! How are they fighting the noise."
Looking a bit closer, Yuya smiled as he spotted Hibiki still in her seat, mesmerised by the battle "There she is!"
Yuya felt a shiver down his spine and he looked over as he looked over to see some Noise advancing towards him.
"Oh no!" He gulped, before quickly jumping off the railing onto the seat below, continuing to do this as he made his way towards his sister.
Down below, Zwei Wing were continuing to fight off the Noise, using their weapons to easily slice up the monster which turned to dust.
"HAH!" Tsubasa yelled, as she jumped up and threw a kick towards one of the Noise causing it to explode into dust.
She followed this by gripping the hilt of her blade and slashed another in half causing it to explode.
"Kanade I- ah!" Tsubasa gasped, as she finally noticed that she was a good distance away from her friend.
"Crap…" she growled while leaping back away from a blast from the Noise "Now we won't be able to coordinate our attacks…"
As this was happening Kanade was rushing forward, piercing through enemy after enemy with her lance.
"Huh? WHOA!" She yelped, dodging a blast from one of the Noise by jumping on to a high floor.
"TAKE THIS!" She yelled, thrusting her lance forward creating a large tornado that pushed a Noise that looked like a giant cybernetic centipede back before it exploded into dust.
"Huh? GUWAAAAHHHH!" Yuya yelled, as he was also caught in the tornado and pushed flying back.
"AH! A survivor!" Kanade gasped, as she quickly dashed to save him.
"I'm coming too!" Tsubasa yelled, as she also dashed to where Yuya was.
"GAH!" Yuya cringed, crashing into the wall before falling to the ground "Ow, ow, ow that hurt…what the heck was tha-ah!"
Yuya froze as in front of him were several Noise monsters that slowly made their way towards him.
"YUYA! NO!" Hibiki cried, while Kanade and Tsubasa rushed to save him.
"G-Get back…" Yuya gulped weakly as the Noise made their way towards but before they could strike.
GOT~CHANKO!
"Huh?" They all blinked, before looking up to see a ball of fire falling towards Yuya before crashing in front of him.
STE~AM HOP~PER!
An explosion of fire knocked the Noise back before they were slash back by the Gotchard Tornado.
Placing a card into the slot on the Gotchard Tornado, the figure pulled the arrow back as the card began spinning before finally letting go.
TOR~NADO! ARROW!
The warrior then freed the bow, sending a rain of arrows towards the Noise in the sky killing a number of them.
Yuya slowly opened his eyes which widened when he saw who was standing in front of him.
Standing in front of him was an armoured warrior in a black bodysuit with orange armour pieces on the outer legs, knees, forearms, shoulders and chest, all of which had yellow flaming designs. Around the chest was some kind of open steam engine furnace with a funnel on top both done in the same flaming orange and an open sky blue fire inside the furnace.
The helmet looked like a knight's helmet done also in the same orange and flame designs with a bronze cow catcher placed below the mouth guard, and two silver curved earpieces on each side, it had a pair of biker goggles on the forehead having the same flame design on the lenses along with silver rims and a pair of antenna attached to them. The helmet was opened to show where the eyes rested in the same black under armour which looked like two sky blue curved arrows pointing at eachother.
Everyone was silent as they saw the warrior's sudden appearance, his armour and his sheer power but in their mind only one word came out.
"A…Kamen…Rider…"
The Kamen rider looked behind him at Yuya who gulped "Go to your sister then get out of here."
"A-Ah…okay." Yuya gulped, getting and running towards Hibiki as the Kamen Rider looked forward and dashed towards the monster.
The Noise screamed as they began firing several blasts towards the Kamen Rider but he moved towards his belt and pushed the sides causing the cards on the front to separate.
This caused his body to turn into a ball of smoke as his armour flew off, allowing the blasts to move right through him.
He then reformed back to normal in mid air before he threw a energy charged punch right at the Noise knocking it back while it dissolved to dust.
He followed this by doing the same to the other Noise around him, first by giving one an uppercut knocking it into the air.
He then jumped up and kicked the Noise it to crash into another group of Noise which all exploded into dust.
Landing on the ground, the Kamen Rider looked up to see several more Noise monsters rushing towards Yuya and Hibiki so he pulled out his gun and three cards before scanning them on the top.
BULLETBANG! SABONEEDLE! RAIDENJI!
Spinning the gun as it charged up energy, the Kamen Rider leapt up and aimed right at the noise moving towards the kids.
G-G-G-GOTCHARGE BUSTER!
He then pulled the trigger, rapidly firing a mass of electrically charged spikes towards the Noises causing them to explode into dust.
"Man~ Whoever that guy is, he's definitely strong." Kanade grinned, watching the Kamen Rider fighting.
"But why didn't Commander ever tell us about a new Kamen Rider appearing, especially after so long." Tsubasa frowned, as Kanade shrugged.
"Well why don't we just ask him." Kanade grinned, before dashing ahead surprising Tsubasa.
"H-Hey, Kanade!" she called, while chasing after him.
"HAH!" The Kamen Rider yelled, slashing through another Noise but not noticing two larger Noise moving up behind him
"HAH!" "SHA!" Kanade and Tsubasa yelled, simultaneously slashing and stabbing the two noises causing them to explode.
The two then landed in front of the Kamen Rider as he stared at them "You two…"
"Heh, yo mister Kamen Rider!" Kanade waved, hoping up to him "So you got a name or do we keep calling your Mr. Rider?"
"Call me Kamen Rider G-" He was about to say before stopping himself and looking back at Yuya "No…Daybreak, Kamen Rider Daybreak."
"Kamen Rider Daybreak?" The two blinked, before they heard a rumble and looked up to see a large group of Noise monsters moving towards them.
"Crap, we're surrounded…" Tsubasa frowned, as she readied her sword.
"Heh, nothing we can't handle." Kanade smirked, cracking her knuckles before looking over at Daybreak "Think you can keep up?"
"Hmph, I should be the one asking you that." Daybreak said, pushing the sides of the driver before he took out the red device and attached it to his driver.
GOTCHAIGNITOR!
(Play What's your fire from Gotchard, lyrics by SecondArchive)
"Henshin!" he declared, before pulling the side of his driver recombining the two cards and causing flames to shoot out of the device.
GOT~CHANKO! FI~RE! STE~AM! HOP~PER! ACHI~!
(What's ya-ya, what's ya-ya, what's ya-ya to Fire!)
Daybreak was then engulfed in a flaming tornado before he used the Gotchard Tornado to slash the flaming Tornado away.
(What's ya-ya, what's ya-ya, what's ya-ya to Fire!)
This revealed that around his neck was now an metallic orange open collar from which an orange cape with flame designs on its ends hung from, along with him holding the Gotchard Tornado and Gotchargi gun in his hands.
(Say what you want!)
"Ikuzo!" Daybreak yelled, as the three dashed towards the Noise monster's surrounding them.
(You're hitting the ground, running into some trouble!)
Daybreak quickly dashed ahead as he slashed through the different Noise monsters that were rushing towards.
(Even if things get pretty tough, just go with your luck!)
He then leapt up into the air while spinning his gun in his hand before unleashing several blasts at the monsters below.
(So that you can understand)
Landing on the ground he quickly pushed his driver, causing him to burst into flames before dashing away.
(Say what you need)
Tsubasa quickly leapt up and threw a side kick towards one of the Noise's heads, sending it flying away.
(In front of your eyes, leading the fight is your buddy! buddy!)
She then looked up at a larger Noise looking down at her before smiling as she saw Kanade rushing with lance at hand.
(Rather than be on the defence, shield them instead)
The two of them then rushed forward before striking the Noise at the same time causing a large explosion.
(Proving that you can so)
The two also did a high five as they passed by each other.
(Here we go) Everyone, everywhere)
We see Yuya frantically rushing towards Hibiki amidst this chaos.
(Here we go) Excitement is in the air.)
Hibiki avoided some of the damage as she continued watching, mesmerised by the battle.
(Break through this dilemma with your friends.)
Daybreak then leapt up high above everyone else while pulling and pushing his driver causing energy to charge.
(Stand up, never surrender)
He then performed a fire charged kick right through another big noise causing a large explosion.
(WHAT'S YOUR FIRE? FIRE? Right in the centre of your heart a fire will light up)
"RAAAAAAHHHHH!" Kanade yelled, as she thrusted her lance forward creating a large tornado that knocked the Noise into the air.
(It's never fading! Oh no, never, ever never ever!)
She then jumped and began slashing through each one that came her way in the tornado.
(WHAT'S YOUR FIRE? FIRE? Don't let your fear get in your way, keep fighting and stand up!)
"TAKE THIS!" Tsubasa yelled, as she jumped down and slashed through one of the Noises in half.
(Possibilities~ Can be endless, alchemist! Reach for your ideal world)
She then spun around and slash through each Noise that had surrounded her, causing several explosions around her.
(Don't stop! Don't stop! Don't stop! You don't give it up!)
Daybreak was up in the air while covered in flames as he dashed towards each of the Noise monsters in the air.
(What's ya-ya, what's ya-ya, what's ya-ya to Fire!)
Quickly slashing through and firing at each Noise that came his away causing them to freeze in place.
(What's ya-ya, what's ya-ya, what's ya-ya to Fire!)
Landing on the ground he struck a pose right as the Noise all exploded behind him.
(End song)
"HIBIKI!" Yuya called, as he finally made it to Hibiki who noticed him and smiled.
"YUYA! YOU'RE OKAY!" Hibiki cried, running up as the two siblings hugged "Never do that again! Idiot! You scared me half to death!"
"I should be the one telling you that! Why didn't you run!" Yuya shot back, looking at her "You could have been killed!"
"How do you expect me to run away from all of this!" Hibiki cried, clearly laughing as she moved back from her brother.
Down below them Kanade thrusted her spear, shooting another tornado only for her eyes to widen 'No! Gungnir's output won't go any higher! Damn it, I have to do something'
She looked and saw some Noise darting toward, forcing her to dive to the left as the monster crashed into the wall and erupted into dust.
"KYAH!" Kanade heard, as she looked up to see the floor under Hibiki crumble.
"HIBIKI!" Yuya yelled, reaching out for his sister as she fell towards the ground.
"Not again!" Kanade yelled, quickly dashing towards Hibiki and catching her before she could fall. "Hey are you okay?"
"Y-Yeah, thank you." Hibiki nodded, getting out of Kanade's grasp only cringe and fall to one knee "Ow, ow, ow."
"I'll get you and your brother out of here, just give me a-" "HEY! BEHIND YOU!"
Kanade and Hibiki's eyes widened when they heard Yuya's shout before they looked up to see a large Noise looking down at them.
The large Noise charging up an attack forcing Kanade to black the attack with her lance "RUN NOW!"
"R-Right." Hibiki nodded, getting up as she limped away while Yuya climbed down to help her.
However the large Noise fired several blasts towards Kanade who blocked the attack with her weapon, but the attacks kept coming. Cracking more and more of her armour including a piece of her weapon that shot past her.
"KANA-GUH!" Hibiki gasped, as the piece of the weapon was straight in the chest.
"HIBIKI!" Yuya cried, jumping down towards his sister.
"Ggh…you…RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Kanade screamed, before using her remaining strength to blast the attack away.
"Hah…hah…hah…" Kanade huffed, before turning around to see Yuya holding his sister.
"OPEN YOUR EYES! HIBIKI PLEASE! I CAN'T LOSE YOU HIBIKI PLEASE!" Yuya grunted, while Kanade soon joined him.
"He's right, don't die on us! Don't give up on your life!" Kanade yelled, before a shadow was casted over them.
They looked up to see the giant Noise charging up another attack but before it could fire.
STE~AM~ HOPPER! BURNING~ FE~VER!
"I won't let you hurt…ANYONE ELSE!" Daybreak declared, as he sent an energy charged kick towards the giant Noise and crashed right in front of them
He then stood up and looked at the two holding Hibiki "What happened?"
"A piece of my weapon was cut off during the attack and pierced her chest." Kanade told him.
"Please! You have to save her! You have to do something, I can't lose her!" Yuya cried, tears streaming down his face.
Gripping his hand, Daybreak walked up to them and placed a hand over Hibiki's chest.
"Let those destroyed return to the way they were and let those separate become one…bring forth this single miracle together!" he chanted, causing Hibiki's body to shine while her wound disappeared.
"Hibiki…" Yuya muttered, looking at his sister who slightly opened her eyes "YOU'RE OKAY!"
"How did you do that…" Kanade muttered, watching as Yuya hugged his unconscious sister while Daybreak stood up.
"That's not important, for now she needs to get to a hospital soon." Daybreak said, standing as he looked at the large group of Noise "But we won't get anywhere with this amount of people."
Kanade was silent for a moment before she stood up and walked ahead of him "Daybreak…would you be able to get these two far away from here…"
"I can…why do you ask?" he asked, with a tone that suggested she knew what was coming.
"You know, I used to want to sing while feeling absolutely nothing." She said while walking towards the army of Noise, confusing me further. "But look at how many people came to hear me today, all of them hopeful and smiling…that's why…I'm going to give them everything I have. This will be my final aria."
Kanade then looked back at Daybreak with a grin on her face as a single tear fell down her face "That's why this will be my Swan song."
Tsubasa heard this as she stabbed through one of the Noise before looking over at her best friend.
"Kanade! No! Please, don't sing that song!" she yelled, trying to reach Kanade while surrounded by Noise.
"You don't have to-" "Please…can you promise me…that you'll get those kids to safety."
"But-" "PLEASE!"
Daybreak looked down at Kanade's hand to see it shaking before he looked up and nodded.
"Thank you…" she smiled "Just don't forget, this song…it's the very proof that I lived."
"W-What is she talking about?" Yuya murmured, while Hibiki slowly opened her eyes.
"Even if my very life burns to an end, as long as there are people who remember me…I'm not afraid." She said, before looking down at the two kids. "Thank you for staying alive."
"NO! KANADE! PLEASE DON'T DO THIS!" Tsubasa screamed, while Daybreak walked up and picked up the two kids "DAYBREAK! WHAT ARE YOU DOING, STOP HER!"
"I'm sorry…" he said quietly before he leapt high into the air and out of the stadium, followed by him dashing as far away as possible.
Landing on the rooftop of a building a good distance away, Daybreak placed the two kids down on the ground before turning around.
"Hey…"
Daybreak stopped as he looked back at Yuya looking towards him.
"Please, how do I become as strong as you…" he asked, before looking down at Hibiki. "I almost lost my only sister today…I don't ever want that to happen again…so please, tell me what to do to become as strong as you."
Daybreak stared at the ground for a moment before walking up to him "You must always stay true to yourself, never let anyone else affect your choices and beliefs or sway you into doing anything you don't agree with."
"But most importantly, you must reach out and find it yourself… Your Gotcha."
"My…Gotcha?" Yuya questioned, as his eyes began getting heavier.
"It's the goal you wish to dedicate the rest of your life to, something you and only you are able to do…that makes your heart filled with excitement and curiosity." He explained, before taking out a ring with markings that looked like two hands and a blue gem with a crystal looked like an arrow pointing up.
"Keep this with you, so that you can never forget what happened today." he said, slipping the ring on his finger.
"It's…pretty…" Yuya smiled, before slowly falling asleep.
"Yeah…I guess it is." Daybreak smiled, before a light exploded from the stadium engulfing everyone including the three of them.
