Magical Girl
After helping his friends escape, Shiro is badly injured from the fight. He barely escape with his life when attacked by the Mirror Monsters. Everything went dark as soon as he hits the ground.
Shiro(In mind): Am I dead...? I didn't feel a thing... My body didn't seem feel hurt anymore... Eh? Not hurt anymore?!
He slowly open his eyes. The light is bright so he use his hand to block and that his hand is bandaged.
Shiro: Huh?
He slowly sit up and saw that he isn't in at the alley anymore. He is lying on a couch. He's inside a house.
Shiro: Where... am I?
He saw that he is shirtless but his body is covered with bandage. His left cheek has a small patch and another bandage at his head.
Shiro: Did I come here before?
???: You awake?
He turns around and saw a girl. She is the girl from before, Otouri Asuka, one of the five Magical Girls that still alive.
Asuka: Thank goodness, you're fine. But you need some rest.
Shiro: And you are?
Asuka: Oh, I'm Otouri Asuka.
Shiro: I see... How can I be here?
Asuka put down the coffee she makes on the table. Yep, she made it if Shiro might awake. Then Asuka sit in front of him.
Asuka: I brought here. I saw you lying on the ground in an alley nearby.
Shiro: Thank you... And, I'm Hazama Shiro. Just call me Shiro.
Asuka: Fine then, Shiro. Here's some coffee.
Shiro: Thank you.
He take a sip of the coffee before speak.
Shiro: Do you live here alone? Where are you parents?
When he ask that question, Asuka felt really down. Her parents was killed by Disas when she in middle school. Shiro realise about it.
Shiro: Sorry! I didn't mean to say something like that!
Asuka: It's fine.
Shiro: I'm sorry. I don't know.
Asuka: Everyone would ask about that. If you're fine now, I can take you to your home.
Shiro: Actually... I don't remember.
Asuka: What?
Shiro: I can't remember where I live.
Asuka: It might be because you fall down hard back then. Don't worry, I'll help you find your home.
Shiro: That's not it!
It makes Asuka stop.
Shiro: Sorry, I didn't mean to shout... I want to say that... I didn't remember anything.
Asuka: What you didn't remember?
Shiro: Everything. Since the past three weeks, I can't even remember who am I or what I am. All I remember is my name.
Asuka: That's not possible. If you have amnesia, at least you could remember something.
Shiro: That's not the answer.
Asuka: No way...
When Shiro said about three weeks ago, it makes Asuka realise something. About the thirteen people that missing all at the same time.
Asuka: Are you one of the missing people?
Shiro: Huh?
Asuka: The incident that happened three weeks ago. You one of them?
Shiro: More like that.
Asuka: Why didn't you feel anything? Are kidnapped or something?
Shiro: Not kidnapped. I and the other twelve was forced to join a game.
Asuka: Join a game?
Shiro: Right. Our memory was wipe out from our mind. We remember nothing except our names. All thirteen of us has to fight in this game.
Asuka: What--
Suddenly the door is opened, showing a huge man. His name is Iizuka, the one that manage Asuka's life as a Magical Girl.
Asuka: You can't just enter my house like that!
Iizuka: I have something--
Then he saw Shiro. Shiro felt really weird than the time when he still inside Mirror World.
Shiro: Who is he? A relative?
Asuka: N-No, he's...
Iizuka: I'm Iizuka. Asuka's guardian.
Shiro: Oh...
Iizuka: And who are you? What are you doing here?
Shiro: Like I really know. Asuka-san, brought me because I'm injured. Look!
He show the injuries all over his body. It does make Iizuka felt suspicious with Shiro's presence here at Asuka's house but he tries not to make any notice that Asuka is a Magical Girl.
Iizuka: I see. Sorry for my rudeness.
Shiro: It's fine. I'm Hazama Shiro, nice to meet you.
Iizuka: My pleasure. And Asuka, can you explain about what he's doing here? If he injured, take him to the hospital.
Asuka: I know that. But by looking at his injured, it's like he's involved in a fight.
Iizuka: A fight?
Shiro: Well, Asuka-san didn't wrong there. Also, what you want to ask me again?
Asuka: Right.
Then she sit back down on the couch with Iizuka beside her while Shiro put on his shirt. Shiro also told Iizuka that he is one of thirteen people that went missing so suddenly.
Asuka: What kind of game did you participate in?
Shiro: *look down* The Rider War...
Asuka: Rider... War?
Iizuka: It's normal for game named war. But why did you just disappear like that along with the other people?
Shiro: Because this game has a condition. It needs thirteen people to play.
Asuka: If it is just a game, why don't you quit?
It makes Shiro clench his hands. This isn't a game that you can say I quit. This game must be end according on how it must be played.
Shiro: This isn't a game that you can quit like that. This game is... deadly one.
Iizuka: Deadly one? What do you mean?
Shiro: You should know that. Asuka-san is a Magical Girl after all.
It makes both Asuka and Iizuka suprised. How did Shiro know that Asuka is a Magical Girl? She didn't even tell him about who she really are.
Asuka: What are you talking about? I'm not a Magical Girl.
Shiro: Words can be deceiving, but eyes won't lie.
Asuka do know what it means. It's like with just one look through her eyes he able to notice about it.
Iizuka(In mind): If this boy about her, he must have some kind of source. Does he come here to kill Asuka?
Asuka: How do you know?
Shiro: Because you given that power. While me, I was cursed with it.
He take out his Advent Deck and show it to them.
Shiro: Do any of you know what this is?
They both look at it. He hand it over to them so Asuka and Iizuka can take a closer look.
Asuka: No. I never seen anything like this.
Iizuka: Me too. I never see this before.
Asuka: But...
She felt the tense from the deck. When she look closely to the Ryuki symbol, she saw like a dragon in front of her. She startled and throw the deck away and Shiro catch it.
Shiro: Asuka-san?! Are you okay?!
Asuka: Wh-What is that...? I never felt something so powerful... than me or Disas...
Iizuka: Boy, where did you get that?
Shiro: I got it when the game is about to start. Right, do you know who Koroi Jun is?
Iizuka: Koroi Jun... Hmm...
He hold his chin as he know who Shiro is talking about.
Iizuka: I do know him.
Shiro: What?! You really know him?!
Iizuka: Koroi Jun. He's a researcher who follow the footstep of Kanzaki Shiro. He's trying to make human with an immeasurable power. But he died five years ago.
Shiro: Eh?! If he died that long, how come he's...?
He stand up because he suprised but then sit back down with an unbelievable news. The one that forced them to fight died long ago.
Shiro: No way... What should I do now?
Iizuka: About the game you told us, what actually the Rider War?
Shiro: It's a game where the player has fight each other. Not just mere fight, player must kill each other.
Asuka: *suprised* A game where... player kill each other?!
Iizuka: What is the point of this game?
Shiro: This game is where all thirteen people have to fight. There can only be one winner. In other word, only one will survive from all twelve people.
Asuka: *look down* From all thirteen... only one will live...
Iizuka: If this game is so terrible, that means there's an impressive prize.
Shiro: That's right. The winner of the game will obtain the Wish Vent. A card that allow the user to grant their wish. The user can ask anything that they ever wanted.
Asuka: A card that grants wishes...?
Shiro: And also, this.
He show he bracelet at his right hand. It still glowing blue with all the symbol is still there.
Asuka: What is that bracelet?
Shiro: This is the Live Bracelet. It can tell us if there's a Rider died. When glows red, the wearer is dead.
Iizuka: I see. So all the you and the other twelve that went missing lost their memory and force to fight in this cruel game.
Asuka: How many people died?
Shiro look at his bracelet and look at every symbol that is shown at it.
Shiro: So far... no one die yet. But to end this game, twelve must die. I and some... just wanted to get out of this hell!
Iizuka: You seem so desprete.
Shiro: Very.
It quiet for a moment until Shiro remember something.
Shiro: That's right, my friends!
He grab his hoodie jacket and went outside while hardly putting his shoes on while standing.
Asuka: Wait, where are you going?
Shiro: I need to find my friends! I told them to meet me in this world! Thanks for treating me and the coffee! And don't worry, your secrets save with me! See ya!
He run down from the apartmet as he keep looking around and tries to find Hakura and Mizo. If he get's a chance, he might find Kitamura as well.
Asuka and Iizuka watch from the at Shiro. Asuka know that Shiro is a type that cared about his allies, just like she once before the other four Magical Girl died in combat.
Asuka: He's just... like me...
Iizuka: For now, we need to keep an eye on him. I'll find information about Koroi Jun.
Then he look at Asuka.
Iizuka: If you get any chances, try to get some info from him.
Asuka: Fine...
Meanwhile...
In Mirror World...
A boy around 19 years old is walking around the factory area. He slow walk while looking around and hide behind a tank.
His name is Haguro Ren. He has jet-black hair, wearing black clock, dark grey shirt, black long pants and black shoes with white strips.
Ren: It's look like there's no Monster around.
He come out and continue his walk. He just keep looking around if there any Monster or Rider just come out.
Ren: It's been three weeks since the war started. But the goal is to kill every Rider, that's too much.
Suddenly, five Mirror Monsters appear out of nowhere and attack Ren. He able to dodge in time and take out his Advent Deck.
He push it forward and the V-Bunkle appear at his waist. He enter his transformation stance.
Ren: Henshin!
He place the deck at his belt. Reflectiona spinning around him and cover his body, showing his Rider form.
He take out his rapier and run toward the Monsters as he slash them.
Knight: Mirror Monsters... you cannot defeat me.
He take out a card and insert it into his rapier.
Nasty Vent!
It create high frequency sound that makes the Mirror Monsters cries in pain and cover their ears.
Knight: Easy.
He dash toward them and stopped at the center of the group. He slash all of them and they explode all at once.
Knight: Weak. More likely the Disas is weaker than these guys.
Then even more Monsters come and then they all suddenly explode and Knight cover himself from the blast.
Knight: What?
Then a familiar Rider come out from the hide and show himself to Knight. It's no other than Ouja himself.
(A/N: I only make the picture at when they first transform in real fight)
Knight: Asakura...
Ouja: It's been awhile, Haguro.
Knight: What do you want?
Ouja: I'm only searching for the best fight. It's look like Hazama met with a Magical Girl.
Knight: What?
Ouja: It might be interesting. "Kamen Rider and Magical Girls fight together to protect the world!"
Knight: I might not want to ally myself with them. But that doesn't mean you can mock him. Shiro is... my friend.
Ouja: You don't want to admit it to him but you admit to me.
Knight: Why did you interest so much with him?
Ouja: You don't yet? He's Ryuki. Ryuki is dragon, the creature from legends like Odin.
Knight: And?
Ouja: Ryuki has... something even worse. And it's here, in this world.
Knight: Asakura, don't you dare deceive me with your words.
Ouja: I am a killer, but I won't lie when about power. Ryuki's true power, will come when he's get angry.
Knight: And I won't let that happened!
He take a card and insert it into his rapier.
Sword Vent!
Then a lance like sword appear from the sky and he grab it.
Knight: I won't let you get to him!
Ouja: Interesting.
He take out a card and insert it into his staff.
Sword Vent!
Then a rattle snake tail style lance like sword appear at his hand.
Ouja: I want to see how strong you've become.
Knight: I want to see how strong you are.
Then dash toward each other and clash their weapons.
(Time Skip)
Back at Real World
Shiro look around the park if Hakura and Mizo are there. But there's not even a trace of them. He walk toward the bench and sit down as he let out a tired sigh.
Shiro: Hakura, Mizo-san... Where you guys?
???: Alone again?
He look up and saw Asuka standing in front of him, wearing casual outfit.
Shiro: Asuka-san?
Then she sit next to him.
Asuka: Did you found your friends?
Shiro: No. I can't find them anywhere in this world. At least they still alive.
Asuka: Hey, there's something I want to ask you about.
Shiro: What?
Asuka: I know this sounds weird but I'm sure I heard sound coming from mirrors. Like windows and other reflections. Do you about it?
Shiro: Of course. That's the sound from Mirror World.
Asuka: Mirror... World?
Shiro: It's where I and the others were summoned. That is where we started our war three weeks ago.
Asuka: I think I know how you're feeling.
Shiro: Huh?
Asuka: You scared... of losing someone close to you.
It makes Shiro realise about it. Asuka lost her comrades in past during their battle with the Disas monsters that terrorise the world.
Shiro: Well... you're right about that. I don't have my memory, but I do have heart.
Asuka: You know, there originally nine of us. But four died in battle, leaving only five of us.
Shiro: Oh, I see... Sorry, for your comrades...
Asuka: It's okay. To make sure their happy, I and the other four will keep living.
Shiro: It's look like we have some particularity.
Asuka: It seems like it.
Shiro: Do you want to be a Magical Girl?
Asuka: What?
Shiro: You become a Magical Girl by volunteer, or force?
Asuka: That's...
She keep looking down. She do want to become a Magical Girl when she still a little girl that watch Magical Girls on TV. But she change after she lost her parents and friends.
Asuka: I don't really... remember now...
Shiro: I don't wanna remind you about your painful past. I'm sorry if I make you remember it.
Asuka: I just... want this world like it before... where there's no Disas, and terrorism...
Shiro: Sometimes life is unfair.
Asuka: Looks like it.
Then they heard a loud boom. They stand up and saw black smoke coming from near the bridge.
Asuka: What is that?
Shiro: An explosion?
They quickly head toward the place where the explosion happened.
"Kim Kanth, a terrorist with the East Asia United Force, fled during transport. A special vehicle belonging to the Metropolitan Riot Police was attacked. Nearby PMs and PCs are heading immediately toward the scene, and look out for the weapons!"
They saw a group of man wearing gas mask is freeing a man, Kim Kanth, from the prisoner transport. Then they shoot the people where ever they saw them. Then Asuka saw her classmate.
Asuka: Sayoko!
Before Kanth can shoot her, Shiro quickly acted and grab Sayoko.
Kanth: What?!
Sayoko: Eh?
Then Shiro move quickly and take her away as she glance at Asuka.
Shiro: It's up to you.
He run from the scene with Sayoko as Asuka look at the terrorist. She take out her item and transform into her Magical Girl outfit.
Asuka use her Magical Karambit and dash toward the terrorist group. They shoot her but she able to block bullets with her magic shield.
Asuka attack one of them and cut him into shreds. Then she head toward Kanth and cut his lower legs causing him to fall and breathing heavily in pain.
Asuka: *glance at Kanth* I won't kill you. You'll go to the Public Safety Department's Foregien Affairs Section.
She keep killing them all one by one until a car stopped and the top opened. A man with a machine gun shoot her rapidly but she able to dodge the bullets.
Asuka(In mind): Even after we defeated the last boss, peace doesn't return to this world.
She slash the car and it explode. The fire and smoke behind her blocking some view. As Asuka turn around, he saw Shiro is standing there looking at her.
Asuka(In mind): Our new battlefield is international crimes, indiscriminate terrorism, civil wars and other conflicts. A Magical Girl's battle never ends.
Shiro(In mind): Wow...! I admit that we Rider are more than Magical Girls but... Asuka-san is quite strong!
Unknown to them, a group is watching Asuka using a drone from somewhere far from there. Also, a Rider is watching Shiro from inside the Mirror World.
To be continued...
"Asuka's return the battlefield, chu! And so has her old comrade, the dizty, easy going nurse Magical Girl. And then, Shiro will with meet with his friends and enemies, chu!"
Next time: "Comrade in Arms and Rider first Death."
If you don't fight, you won't survive.
