Hey guys this is Shunya Toshiki bringing you the final chapter of my Kiva story. And I have to say this is by far the longest chapter I ever written ever...This was not easy to write but I got it done, and despite how tired I am by writing this, I feel strangely proud of myself that I broke my old record again.

But anyway, let's get on with the story.

I don't own Kamen Rider Kiva and Shinmai Maou no Testament, those belong to their creators. I'm doing this for fun not profit.

The Testament of Kiva

Testament 13: The Rise of Arc

Mio was starting to wake up as Zest lifted the sleep spell she casted on her as she slowly begins to opened her eyes.

"I see you're awake now, Mio." Mio looks up and saw Zolgia along with Zest, Arc and Dark Decade in front of her. "It's been a long time."

"W-Who are you?" Mio asked before she found her arms chained up on the wall behind her.

"Oh you don't remember me? Well I suppose that's not a surprised I mean it has been two years." Zolgia said with a evil grin on his face.

"Two years…?" Mio repeated before she remembers that smile on Zolgia's face and remembers the day that her foster parents died and remembers their killer having the same grin on his face on that day. "I-It's you...you were the one that killed my parents…!"

"Indeed! I'm so happy you remember now!" Zolgia exclaimed in joy. This made Mio glare at him in anger as she wanted to charge at him and attack him with magic but the chains on her wrists prevent her from doing so. "Oh don't even bother my dear. Those chains are nearly impossible to break, and not to mention they're nullifying your magic."

"You…!" Mio growls before she remembers that Maria was her. "Wait a minute where's Maria?! I swear if you hurt her…"

"Oh relax…" Arc said getting Mio's attention before he steps aside. "The succubus is fine, and see for yourself."

As Arc steps back he reveals Maria standing behind him, and Mio smiles in relief that she's alright.

"Maria...I'm so glad you're safe, you're not hurt are you?" Mio asked, but Maria looks away from her which made Mio blinks in confusion. "Maria…?"

"That's right, I see that a few explanations are in order." Zolgia said as he walks behind Maria and placed his hand on her shoulder. "I'm sorry to break it to you, but Maria has been in my servitude for a while now."

"What? No that's a lie! Right Maria, it's not true right?" Mio asked her servant, but Maria didn't answer. "Maria…?"

"Oh come now, surely you can't be this stupid girl. How did you think you're here, and how were we able send demons to you to your exact locations? It was all thanks for the information Maria provided us, and her cooperation in helping in your capture." Zolgia told her.

"Maria...please...please tell me he's lying…" Mio pleaded for answer but Maria still remained silent. "Maria how could you? You've been by my side, helping me, and protecting me for so long? So how could you?"

Maria turns away turning her back towards Mio, which saddens Mio even more as tears started to form on her eyes as she started to sniffle.

"I have to say you really have a sick and twisted sense of humor, Zolgia. Though I'm not exactly one to talk myself." Dark Decade said.

"Say it as you like." Zolgia said before he turns to Dark Decade. "Also don't forget your side of the deal."

"Yes, yes I know. Once you get her powers along with Kiva's, I'll let you have the demon world." Dark Decade said.

"That is very nice to hear." Zolgia said.

Zest then senses approaching from the outside of the castle, and Zolgia soon notice the look on his servant's face.

"Zest what's wrong?" Zolgia asked.

"It would appear we have some uninvited guests, master." Zest answered before she part out a magic screen that shows a vision of Lars in front of the castle and saw the unconscious Basara floating beside, as everyone in the room saw.

"Basara?" Mio mutters in shock in the state he's in.

"Well this is certainly a surprised. Not to mention he also brought the boy." Zolgia said before he smiles. "But this is exactly what I was hoping for. Zest go and greet our guest."

"As you command, master." Zest bows her head before she leaves the room.

"Oh no...Basara!" Mio calls out to him, but he couldn't hear her voice.

(Cue Break the Chain)

(Instrumental) As the song was playing, in the main room of Castle Doran Mio was sleeping on white bed wearing red dress while rose petals fall on her, then changes to Kiva walking through the hallways of Castle Doran. Then the scene changes Kiva picking up Mio in bridal carry. The tone changes then Kiva turns face to face at the screen. Then Kiva was flying upside down with his right leg armor open.

(Baku Baku beatin' heart! Kattobashite killin' it now!) Kiva on his motorcycle begins driving it fast on the street.

(Baki Baki beatin' heart! Kimi koso one and only) Then changes to Kiva sitting on throne in Castle Doran, The Arm Monsters in their human forms and Mio, Maria, and Yuki walking towards him. Changes back to Kiva flying upside down again.

(Kimi ga sekai ni sonzai shiteru, imi wo shiritakunai? {Baku baku beatin' heart!}) Maria and Yuki were in the kitchen papering for dinner, while Basara and Mio were setting the table, Kivat is seen flying in the screen singing.

(Baki Baki beatin' heart!) Basara, Mio, and Yuki are seated in their classroom, then changes Yahiro eating with Basara on the roof, while in that time eight Kivat's were singing on the top and bottom of the screen.

{Instrumental} (Soko ni kakurete temo! Nani mo hajimannai) Mio then remembers Zolgear killing her parents, and then changes to Basara with chains crawling under his skin, and then changes to Lars, Zest, Valga, and Zolgear together on a stair case. The scene changes to Basara as the chains speared out of him and restraining him.

(Tozasareteta DOA wo sono de kowase) Kiva was walking in a dark room, and then Kiva watches shattered stain glass was reforming making a window that shines on him beneath him is the shadow of the mirror. Then change back to Basara freeing himself from the chains.

(Me ni mienu fuan wo kazote tomaranaide) Basara held Kivat on his hand and let him bite him and then inserts him into his belt, and then changes into Kiva.

(Unmei no RUURU yabutteku) A child Basara was on his knees in a carter as was Brynhildr stab on the ground next to him.

(Me ni mienai tsunagari shinite ugoki dasou) Kiva on the throne of Castle Doran and near it is the Arm Monsters in human form, and then showed Mio hugging on the back of his neck, Yuki was hugging him on his arm, and Maria hugging on his leg.

(You got to change! Breakin' the chain! Tobashiteke ashita e) Kiva was readying his fist and shattered the stain window in pieces again, Kiva changes back to Basara.

(Don't be afraid! Walk in the stage, just GO! {Instrumental}) Kivat was flying near Kiva's raised right leg and the armor opens and freed the red wings. Kiva was now showed on top of Castle Doran and then jumps high in the air.

(Baku Baku Beatin' heart! Kimi koso one and only) Kivat fly's through the screen followed by Kiva doing his signature attack. Then changes into title of the story with Kiva's symbol.

Zest and Lars were now standing in front of each other outside of Zolgia's palace, with Basara still floating behind Lars.

"I was surprised you were able to beaten and capture Kiva." Zest said.

"You should know by now, that you shouldn't underestimate me." Lars said before he sends the unconscious Basara to Zest. "Now then, I expect my payment for my side of the deal."

"Yes of course, but I'm afraid there's been a change in plan." Zest told him.

"What do you mean by that?" Lars asked, and Zest smirks before she charges and thrust her hand through Lars' chest. "What the…"

"That you've already outlived your usefulness to us. You see now that we have Mio Naruse, and now that you've brought Basara Toujou, we have everything we need now." Zest told him as Lars was bleeding out.

"Y-You bitch…" Lars mutters.

Zest only coldly smirks taking it as a compliment before she retracted her hand out of Lars's chest as his blood spills to the ground before he fallen to the ground.

"Now that's been taken care of," Zest said before she drags Basara's body inside of the castle. "Best to get you ready as well."

Zolgia, Maria, Mio, Dark Decade, and Arc had been watching Zest's actions through the magical screen, and Zolgia had a evil grin on his face seeing that everything that he has desired for a long time is close to his reach.

"Well done Zest, I shouldn't expect anything less." Zolgia said before he turned to the Dark Riders. "You said, for me to acquire the powers of Kiva I first need to end his connection to Kivat by killing him, correct?"

Mio's eyes widen when he said that, before Arc nodding.

"Of course, and after that I will use my powers to make Kivat into a mindless puppet for your own use, to guarantee that the powers will be yours forever." Arc said.

"Excellent! And luckily for me I have the perfect servant." Zolgia said before he turns to Maria. "Maria you know what I mean, don't you?"

Maria flinched when he said that as her eyes slightly widen before she looks down and nodded.

"Hai…" Maria mutters and Zolgia smirks.

"Good, now you better be ready as well, and I expect good results that is what you succubuses are good at." Zolgia told her.

Maria bows her head before she makes her leave as the others watches her leave.

"Wait Maria, don't do it please!" Mio pleaded to Maria but she didn't listen as she continues to walk forward, but when she called Maria frowned in shame as she made a tight fist.

(Meanwhile)

Outside of Zolgia's palace Lars dead body is still lying in front of the palace, but that was actually an illusion as it fades and the real Lars walks past his body illusion.

"You two can come out now." Lars said before Kamen Riders Decade and Diend appeared behind Lars as they both turned from invisible to visible, and Kivat was also with them as he sitting on Decade's shoulder.

"I'm surprised you know we were here." Decade said as he and Diend changed back to Alex and Seth.

"Well I had a feeling that Basa-chi had planned on this, for someone to follow behind us that are good in hiding in the shadows." Lars said.

"Yeah because he needs more people he can count on besides you. And just to let you know if anything happens, to Basara, Mio, and Maria-chan you'll be answering to me." Kivat warned Lars.

"Don't worry about it, he'll be alright. I mean after all don't you trust your partner to do the job?" Lars said which made Kivat huffed as he turns away from the masked demon.

"I don't need to hear that, especially from someone like you." Kivat said.

"But in any case there's nothing any of us can do, until Basara takes down the barrier." Seth said.

"Yeah the rest is up to him now." Alex said in agreement as they wait for Basara to finished his side of the plan.

(Back with Basara)

Basara is seen laying on a bed of another room before he started to wake up as his eyes begin to slightly opened. Basara sits back up as he groans in pain as he rubs the side of his chest.

'Damn that Lars...he could have at least pulled his punches a little.' Basara thought.

"I see you're awake now, Basara-san." Basara looks up and saw Maria standing in front of the door and in front of him.

"Maria…" Basara mutters as he stands up and got off of the bed as he faces Maria. "Maria, please answer me where is Mio?"

"Sorry to say but I'm not telling you, and besides what's the point of asking me anyway? I mean after all you know that I've betrayed you and Mio-sama." Maria said.

"I don't believe that." Basara stated which made Maria to narrow her eyes at him. "There's no way you would ever betray us like this, Maria. Not without a reason."

"A reason you say?" Maria said as she made a tight fist. "I guess I shouldn't be surprised for you to be that naive. But Basara-san you should know why I'm here."

"It's because Zolgia wants my Kiva powers, right?" Basara asked and Maria answered by nodding. "Sorry, but that's not going to happen, and you know it."

Maria sighs in disappointment when he said that.

"I guess I shouldn't be surprised that you'll be that stubborn. I was hoping we would do this the easy way but…" Maria said before a key magical appears in front of the lock on her chest. "Looks like you leave me no choice."

The key then inserted itself into Maria's lock and unlocks it, Maria screams as an aura appears around and to Basara's shock her form was beginning to change shape.

Maria was growing larger and taller, before her transformation is now complete as she took a moment to catch her breath. Maria's body was now in the shape and size of a fully grown curvy woman, she was now taller than Basara and have a large chest that was about the same size and shape of Mio's, and her outfit had change as well, her gloves her slightly bulkier with pink highlights with a few belt straps around her legs and around her abdomen, and her boots were now colored black with pink highlights.

"Maria that form?" Basara said while he was still surprised by her new appearance.

"You like it. I thought it be more appropriate for the both of us." Maria said before she took a combat stance.

"Maria, I'm not going to fight you." Basara told her.

"Good. That will make things easier for me!" Maria said before she charges at Basara to attack him.

Basara dodges her attack in time as he shoulder rolls to the side.

"Maria, please stop this! It doesn't have to be this way!" Basara told her before the succubus slowly turns to him.

"Shut up!" Maria said before she jumps at Basara to kick at him, and Basara was able to block her kick in time but was sent rolling to the ground.

"What's the matter, Basara-san? I know you're stronger than that, even without Kivat-san being with you." Maria stated as Basara was standing back up.

"Maria…" Basara mutters.

"Did you really come here just to die? Did you really think you could save Mio-sama with weak resolve like that?" Maria asked.

Basara looks down in ponder before she looks back at Maria and soon brought out his sword, which made Maria entered a combat stance as she waiting for Basara's attack, but soon saw Basara stabbing his sword to the floor before it disappeared which made Maria blinks in confusion when he did that.

"What the...just what are you doing?" Maria asked.

(Meanwhile)

In his throne room Zolgia, Zest, Arc, Dark Decade, and Mio were watching Maria's progress in a magic screen, as he was growing impatient as he taps his finger on throne's arm rest.

"Just what is that girl doing? Why isn't she finishing him already?" Zolgia said.

"You shouldn't stress out about it. It looks like he's ready to give up the fight." Dark Decade said.

"Agreed." Arc nodded in agreement. "I mean after all his compassion is his weakness, and he still views that girl like family to him."

"I know that but she would've already finished him off." Zolgia said before a green static appears on the magic screen. "What the…"

Then suddenly the magic screen shattered into pieces which surprised them.

"What on Earth, Zest what's going on?" Zolgia asked.

"I'm not sure, let me check something." Zest said before she placed her hand on the floor to feel the magic around the palace but to her shock she felt nothing. "Something's wrong, the barrier is down."

"Nani?" Zolgia gasped when she said that.

Then Dark Decade realized what was going on as he chuckles in amusement before it turns to a laugh.

"I see now. So this was their plan all along, how very clever." Dark Decade said which gotten Zolgia's attention when he turned to him.

"What do you mean by that?" Zolgia asked.

"You'll see soon enough." Arc stated.

(With Alex and the others)

Alex, Seth, Kivat, and Lars still waits outside of the palace until Lars sense that the barrier is now down.

"The barrier is down." Lars told the two Kamen Riders and Kivat. "Looks like Basa-chi was able to finished his part of the plan."

"Then we should start and finished our own parts." Alex said before he turned to Seth and Lars. "I'm trusting you two that you'll won't double cross me and Basara."

"Don't worry, I'm a man of my word." Seth said.

"And I'm still willing to help as long as I have Zolgia to myself." Lars said.

"Alright then let's go." Alex said and the others nodded in agreement before he and Seth brought out their Drivers and soon brought out their Cards.

"Henshin!" Alex and Seth said in the same time before they inserted their cards into their Drivers.

KAMEN RIDE: DECADE

KAMEN RIDE: DIEND

Alex transformed into Decade and Seth transformed into Diend, before they entered the palace.

(Meanwhile with Yuki)

Yuki in her Hero Clan armor is seen walking through the woods that was around Zolgia's palace, her part of the plan is to wait and wonder through the woods until she can feel Basara presences when he brings down the barrier.

She finally felt her connection to Basara through their Master-Servant pact.

"Basara he did it." Yuki said before she runs to where Basara and the others are. "Just hang on, Basara, Mio, Maria, I'll be right there."

(Back with Basara)

As Maria was still wondering why Basara had discarded his sword, he finally broke the silence as he spoke first.

"Maria, I know why you're doing this." Basara said which made Maria blink in confusion. "It's because is keeping your mother hostage, right?"

Maria's eyes widen in shock when he said that.

"H-How did you know…?" Maria asked before Basara walks to her.

"How I know doesn't matter. I know the reason why you did what you did, is because you wanted to rescue her, and I understand you wanted to save your family. But Maria it's still not too late, we can still save her and Mio." Basara told her.

"No...no it's already too late for me to turned back!" Maria said as she punches at him, Basara blocks her punch and was sent stumbling back and tears started to fall from her eyes. "Even if I could...it still doesn't change the fact that I've betrayed you, Mio-sama, Kivat-san, and Yuki-san...how could I even face them even after I've done? How could you all forgive me?"

"It's because we're a family." Basara said which surprised Maria as her eyes widened again as she looks back at Basara. "Even if we get mad at each, and make mistakes it still changes the fact we're a family, and we're able to forgive each other as long as we love each other, and that doesn't change the fact that I'm your big brother and your my little sister, and I still love you."

"But...Basara-san I…" Maria mutters before Basara wipes away her tears and pets her on the head.

"It's alright, like I said I understand, and so will Mio once you two talk things out. So save those tears until then." Basara said, Maria was about to say something until they heard the door and flying inside was Kivat.

"Kivat!" Basara said in relief before Kivat flies around him and Maria.

"Basara! I'm so glad you're alright." Kivat said before he turned to Maria, and was surprised by her adult and curvy body. "What the Maria-chan?! What the heck happened to you?"

"We don't have time for that Kivat. How are the others?" Basara said.

"Right Alex is in the throne room fighting Dark Decade, while Seth and our other certain ally is looking for Maria-chan's mother." Kivat told him.

"Alright, then we better head to the throne room to help Alex." Basara said as he walks to the door before he turns Maria showing his confident and reassuring smirk. "Also don't worry Maria, leave everything to your big brother. I promise you, I'll save everyone, Mio, you, and your mother."

"Basara-san…" Maria mutters.

Basara soon turns back to the door.

"Alright let's go Kivat!" Basara said.

"Yosha! Kivat ikuze!" Kivat said as he flies around Basara before he catches the bat and let's him bite his other hand.

"GABUU!"

Basara's belt soon appears around his waist.

"Henshin!" Basara said before he inserted Kivat into his belt and transformed into Kiva.

Kiva then runs out of the room leaving Maria as she watches him as she wonders on what to do herself.

(With Decade)

Decade is seen in the throne room fighting against his dark counterpart Dark Decade, as a now freed Mio is hiding behind a stone pillar.

Decade kicks at Dark Decade but he blocks his kick before he pushed his leg back, and Dark Decade punches at Decade and Decade manage to stop his attack in time by blocking them with his forearms, and Decade lands a punch on Dark Decade's chest forcing the Dark Rider to stumble back before Decade sweep kicks at his legs but Dark Decade dodges it by jumping over Decade, as he was in the air Dark Decade pulls out his Ride Booker in its sword mode before he lands behind Decade and slashed on his back, Decade turns to Dark Decade and punches at him but the dark Rider parried his punch by slashing on his fist and slashes on his chest sending Decade rolling on the floor.

"Takahashi!" Mio said in worried.

Decade manage to stand on one knee and foot before he saw Dark Decade going to slash at him again, Decade braced himself as he was going to block his attack with his arms, before Dark Decade senses something coming at him he turns in time to saw water bullets flying at him, and Dark Decade was able to slashed them down in time, but while he was distracted Decade stands back up as he pulls out two W Cards and inserted them into his Driver one at a time.

KAMEN RIDE: W

FORM RIDE: W HEAT-METAL

Decade transformed into W Heat-Metal form and lands a fire punch from his Heat side on Dark Decade's head sending the Dark Rider to stumble back before he stops and soon everyone in the room turns to the shooter who fired at him, and saw it was Kiva in his Bashaa Form as he arrives in the room.

"Basara!" Mio said in relief seeing that he's alright.

Zolgia was angered as he saw Kiva now in the room.

"You...so I guess that succubus wasn't able to finish you…!" Zolgia said in anger and spite.

"It's about time you show up Basara." D-W told his fellow Rider.

"Sorry that I took so long." Kiva said as D-W chuckles.

Kiva then heard someone running at him and saw it was Arc charging at him, Kiva was about to fire at him with his Magnum but Arc kicks his gun out of his hand and punches on Kiva's chest as he reverted to his Base form.

"Basara!" D-W shouted as he was going to run to Kiva to help but Dark Decade stops him as he slashed in front of him as he dodges his slash by jumping back.

"You shouldn't forget that I'm still here." Dark Decade told him.

D-W pulls out his Metal Shaft and soon he and Dark Decade charges at each other and engage in combat as they clashed their weapons against each other.

"Your opponent is me now, Kiva." Arc said before he pointed at Kiva, and the bat theme Rider entered a combat stance. "Henshin…"

Then a mechanical skeletal bat appeared and hover next to Arc, the bat was colored grey metal and had red eyes, this is Arc Kivat.

"Yay! Shall we go? Doron doron." Arc Kivat said before he attaches himself on the belt Arc was wearing.

Arc soon levitated into the air before Arc Kivat said.

"Henshin."

A golden circle with Arc's symbol appeared in front of him before it shattered into pieces, the shards then enveloped Arc and he transformed into his Kamen Rider form, but this was not a regular transformation as Arc as was now three times bigger than his original size.

He stood three meters tall and was wearing black armor. His hands were colored gold, and has silver knee guards with golden armored ankles, and his helmet bore devil like horns with large yellow eyes, his chest looked like a open mouth of a demon with chains in front of the mouth keeping it blocked.

This is Kamen Rider Arc.

Kiva, Kivat, Mio, Zolgia, and Zest were shock of Arc's Kamen Rider form and for his now large size.

"Well he's certainly a large fellow." Kivat said.

"Yeah, but you know the old saying; the bigger they are the harder they fall!" Kiva said and Kivat chuckles as he smiles.

"Agreed! Let's go, aibou!" Kivat said and Kiva nodded in agreement.

Arc then kicks at Kiva, and Kiva was able to block and dodges his kick, and Arc soon punches at Kiva and Kiva was able to stop his punch in time as he catches it with both of his hands and still stood as cracks appeared beneath his feet by the force of Arc's punch.

Kiva roars as he pushed Arc's fist back, and he soon jumps and punches on his chest, but Arc didn't even felt that as he slams Kiva away sending him rolling on the floor.

"Basara!" Mio shouted in worry.

Kiva manage to stand on his hands and knees before he looks back at Arc and saw him stomping his foot at him, and Kiva was able to dodge it in time as he rolls backwards, and soon stands back on his feet.

Kiva then pulls out his Dogga Fuestle and inserts into Kivat's mouth.

"DOGGA HAMMER!"

Kiva soon transformed into his Dogga Form armed with his Hammer, before Arc throws a punch at Kiva and Kiva soon swings his Hammer at his fist and their two attacks clashed against each other which made a brief shockwave as Kiva stood his ground against Arc's punch, and Kiva soon redirected Arc's fist to the side as his fist crashed onto the floor.

Kiva then slams his Hammer on Arc's head sending him stumbling back, before he stops and turns back at Kiva as he glares at him.

"I hardly even felt that. It will take more than that to defeat me!" Arc said before he brought out his spear and soon he and Kiva charge at each other as they clashed their weapons.

D-W parries a few sword slashes from Dark Decade, and after the next parry D-W saw an opening and slams on Dark Decade's chest with his Shaft forcing the Dark Rider to stumble back.

"Not bad...looks like I need change styles myself." Dark Decade said before he brought out a Ride Card and inserted into his Driver.

KAMEN RIDE: SORCERER

A golden magic circle appears in front of Dark Decade and it went through him changing him into Sorcerer armed with his Dis Halberd.

DD-Sorcerer then brought out an Attack Ride Card and inserts into his Driver.

ATTACK RIDE: CHAIN

D-W soon saw several magic circles appearing around him and soon chains started to fly out of them and flies at D-W to entrap him.

D-W manage to slam the chains away and dodges a few of them preventing the chains to grab onto him, and D-W soon saw DD-Sorcerer charging at him and swings his Halberd at him, D-W was able to block his attack in time and D-W was going to punch on DD-Sorcerer with his Heat fist but while he wasn't looking one of the chains grabs onto the wrist of his Heat Side preventing him from punching at DD-Sorcerer.

"Oh no!" D-W gasped before the chain lifted him up in the air and slams him back to the floor.

As D-W slowly manage to stand on his hands and knees, but soon saw that DD-Sorcerer inserted another Attack Ride Card into his Driver.

ATTACK RIDE: EXPLOSION

DD-Sorcerer aimed his hand at D-W and soon a magic circle appeared beneath before it exploded on him.

D-W was sent flying before he rolls on the ground as he reverted back into his Base form as Decade.

"All too easy." DD-Sorcerer chuckles in a mocking tone as he changes back into Dark Decade, while Decade struggles to get back up.

Kiva and Arc continues to clashed their weapons against each other, and when Kiva swings his Hammer at Arc the Dark Rider easily catches his weapon, and Arc soon stabs his spear on Kiva's chest using enough force and strength to send Kiva flying as he was force to let go of his hammer.

Kiva reverted back to his base form before he crash onto the wall behind him and then falls to the ground.

"Basara!" Mio cries out as Kiva was struggling to get back up.

Arc then walks to Kiva to finished him off.

"It's time that we finished this Kiva." Arc told him as he readies his spear, but before he could take another step a fireball hits on his chest making him stop waking as he and Kiva turns and saw it was Mio who fired that attack as a magic circle was in front of her.

"Mio?" Kiva said in surprised as Mio walks in front of Kiva to protect him from Arc. "What are you doing? You need to hide now."

"I won't!" Mio told him. "I'm not gonna stand by while you and Takahashi are risking your lives to help me, so I'm gonna fight too."

"Mio…" Kiva mutters while Arc huffs in annoyance.

"Fine then!" Arc shouted as he readies his spear as he aimed it at both Mio and Kiva. "Then you'll both die together!"

Arc then thrusts his spear at Kiva and Mio, which Decade saw as he can only watch as he was able to stand on one hand and elbow.

"Basara! Mio!" Decade cries out as the spear was about inches away from Mio.

"Hey big guy, over here!" Someone shouted at Arc which he turns and saw that someone punching on his face and was strong enough to force him to stop his attack and was send stumbling back away from Mio and Kiva as their savior lands next to them and they both saw it was Maria.

"Maria?" Mio said as she still recognizes her despite her current state her body was in.

Their enemies were surprised to see the succubus was now in the room and has saved Mio and Kiva, before she turned to Mio.

"Mio-sama...I understand that you might be still angry at me for what I did, and I know apology isn't enough to make up for it, but please let me help." Maria requested, and Mio pounders about it before she smiles and nodded.

"Alright...but just to let you know I'm still giving you a scolding once we head back home." Mio told her and Maria smiles in happiness as she nods as well.

"Hai, Mio-sama!" Maria said.

Mio then turned Kiva and offered her hand to him.

"Well Basara, you ready to let us fight with you?" Mio asked.

Kiva pounders about it before he chuckles as he grabs onto her hand and Mio soon helps him stand back up.

"I still think this is crazy, but it's not like I'm one to talk. So let's all get out of here together, and head back home." Kiva told them and his two step sisters nodding in agreement.

Zest was surprised by Mio's willing to forgive Maria after she had betrayed them, while Zolgia was not please by this outcome before he chuckles.

"Maria, you are aware that you just gave your mother a death sentence, don't you?" Zolgia asked and Maria glared at him.

"I am, but I'm going to save her and protect Mio-sama!" Maria swore while Zolgia clicks his tongue in annoyance.

"How idiotic...but I think I'll give you a little bit of despair." Zolgia said before he summons a magic screen to the room where he was keeping Maria's mother. "I hope you're ready Maria, because you're about to watch your mother die before your very...huh?"

Everyone then saw on the screen was nothing but a empty cage in the room.

"What the where did she go?!" Zolgia demanded.

"Out of your reach now." Everyone turned and saw someone entering the room and fired upon the two Dark Riders and to Zolgia which the Dark Riders dodge in time and while Zest protected Zolgia with a magic shield.

They soon saw it was Diend entering the room as he walks to Decade.

"So I guess you were successful on rescuing Maria's mother?" Decade asked.

"Yeah, and right now she's with our other ally and with that Yuki girl too." Diend told him before he reach his hand out to Decade and he grabs it as Diend helps him stand back up.

"Wait a minute, don't tell you've…?" Zolgia mutters.

"That's right, us fighting here was just to distract you long enough, so that our other allies will have enough time to find and rescue Maria's mother." Kiva said.

"And I have to say you fall for it very easily. Though I guess it shouldn't be a surprised to fool a senile old man like you." Decade said in a mocking tone, which angered Zolgia even further.

"Why you inferior human…!" Zolgia mutters before he glares at Dark Decade and Arc. "This is all your fault! You said you can handle this pest, yet you allow this to happen! I should've known better to place my trust in a human! Just how are you going to fix this?!"

Dark Decade sighs in annoyance as Zolgia keep mocking him, as he changes his Ride Booker to its gun mode and fired at Zolgia making him stop ranting on. Zolgia then looks down and saw the gaping hole on his chest and his eyes widen in shock when he saw it.

"W-W-What is this…?" Zolgia mutters before he started to cough out blood as he falls to his knees.

"Master!" Zest said in worried as she runs to check on him.

"Will you just shut up already?" Dark Decade said as he lowers his guns.

Zolgia manage to find the strength to glare at Dark Decade.

"Kisama...This wasn't part of the deal…" Zolgia mutters, and Dark Decade laughs when he said that.

"Deal?! Decade's right, you are going senile. Because what makes you think I keep promises to lowly insects like you?" Dark Decade asked which angered Zolgia even further.

"Why you...you inferior human! Zest kill him!" Zolgia ordered his servant and she nodded.

"Yes sir!" Zest said before she charges at Dark Decade.

Zest was going to slash on Dark Decade's neck with her claws to cut off his head, but Dark Decade easily stops her attack blocking it with his forearm.

"Oh please did you honestly think you can beat me?!" Dark Decade shouted as he pushed her claws back and Dark Decade punches her on the face sending flying as she crashed on the floor a few times before she crashed into the wall before she fallen on her knees.

Zest soon saw Dark Decade walking towards her gritted her teeth before she slams her fist into the floor, and Dark Decade felt a slight quake in the floor as he stops walking he then looks at the floor below and saw it was starting to swifting as it was being altered and Dark Decade then realizes what she's going to do next.

"Not bad I have to say this was very…" Before Dark Decade could finished Zest swifted the floor as two large boulders rise from the floor with Dark Decade standing between them, and Zest slams into each other crashing Dark Decade who was caught in the middle.

Zolgia smirks thinking that Dark Decade is dead, until the two boulders were being pushed back by Dark Decade as he pushed them back with his hands much to Zolgia's and Zest's shock.

"You know it's considered rude to interrupt someone when they're talking!" Dark Decade said before he brought out an Attack Ride Card and inserts into his Driver.

ATTACK RIDE: SLASH

Dark Decade changes his Ride Booker to its sword mode as energy channel through the blade, before he slashes on the two boulders around him, destroying them with ease. Dark Decade then saw Zest thrusting her hand at him, but Dark Decade was able to stop her attack in time by catching her wrist, and Dark Decade then lifts the servant of Zolgia up in the air and slams her to the floor, and Dark Decade then kicks her away sending her flying before she crashed onto a pillar behind her before she fallen to the floor below.

"Man talk about pathetic. I was hoping for you to be more of a challenge." Dark Decade said as he watches Zest slowly stands back up.

"Damn you…" Zest mutters.

"Useless…" Zolgia growls and Zest heard as her eyes slightly widen before she and the others turned to him.

"Master…?" Zest said.

"You're completely useless! How could you lose to a mere human?!" Zolgia exclaimed loudly which shocks Zest as her eyes widen and shake.

"That bastard…" Decade said in disgust of Zolgia's attitude.

"Yeah that's easy for you to say, you're not the one who has a hole in their chest." Diend said.

"Master…" Zest mutters before Zolgia aimed his hand at her to fire a magic spell at her.

"Get out of my sight you useless tool!" Zolgia said before he fires a spell at Zest to kill her, and Zest only stands there as it was coming at her.

"Look out!" Kiva shouted as he manage to save her in time as he grabs onto her and he manage to get her out of the spells path as he pushed her out of the way as they fall to the floor.

Zest was surprised that Kiva saved her as he stands back up and stood in front of her.

"But why did you…?" Zest asked before Kiva turns to her.

"Do I really need a reason to help someone in need?" Kiva asked which surprised Zest yet again.

"Damn you Basara Toujou…!" Zolgia growls in anger.

Dark Decade sighs in irritation which gotten Zolgia's attention as he turns to him.

"Jeez, you're getting annoying. I think it's about time I show you what I do to irritations, like you." Dark Decade said before he walks to Zolgia.

"N-No stay back!" Zolgia said in fear before he fired multiple attack spells at Dark Decade.

Dark Decade easily cuts down his attacks with ease as he kept on walking towards and after having a enough of his futile attacks Dark Decade changes his sword to its gun mode and fired on his arm blasting it off, as Zolgia eyes slowly widen in fear he soon screams in pain as he holds the wound where his other arm was.

Dark Decade was about finished him off, but soon heard and saw gun fire heading straight towards him before he deflected them, he then saw it was Decade with his Ride Booker in gun mode that fired on him.

"Decade? Why would you…?" Dark Decade said but while he wasn't looking Zolgia took this chance to his advantage.

"Damn you! I'll make you make you pay for this!" Zolgia cries out before he teleports out of the palace.

"He's gone..." Mio gasped in surprise.

"Hmph so he run away like the coward he is. Oh well I'll always hunt him down later, but first..." Dark Decade said before he turns to the Riders and their allies. "Now we can handle these guys, wouldn't you agree Arc?"

"Of course, master." Arc nodded in agreement.

This made the three Kamen Riders and Mio and Maria be on guard ready for their next attack, until Dark Decade brought out a Kamen Rider Card.

"I think it's about I end things quick." Dark Decade said before he inserts the Card into his Driver.

KAMEN RIDE: DARK KABUTO

Dark Decade black hexagons appeared from his Driver as he transformed into Dark Kabuto.

"Oh no…everyone we need to-!" Decade calls out but was too late to finished as DD-Dark Kabuto pulls out an Attack Ride Card and inserts it into his Driver.

ATTACK RIDE: CLOCK UP

DD-Dark Kabuto runs at Decade and Diend in super speed attack them sending them upward in the air and lands another attack on them when they were still up in the air, which sends them flying across the room.

"What the?!" Kiva gasped in shock before DD-Dark Kabuto attacks him sending him in the air as well before the Dark Rider lands another sending him flying.

"Basara!" Mio cries out before Maria saw the blur of DD-Dark Kabuto heading towards her.

"Mio-sama!" Maria shouted before she grabs onto her and shields her from the Dark Rider's attack as it lands on her back which sends them both in the air before DD-Dark Kabuto kicks on Maria's back sending them both flying before DD-Dark Kabuto grabs onto Maria's leg and throws to the side before he lands a strong kick on Maria again sending her and Mio rolling on the floor as Maria still protected, as they were rolling on the floor Maria reverted back to her original form before they stop rolling on the floor.

"Maria!" Mio said in worried as she checks on her as the succubus was growling in pain before they looks back DD-Dark Kabuto as he still continues beating down the three Kamen Riders.

(In Clock Up)

DD-Dark Kabuto kicks on Decade's chest and soon runs to his back and kicks him again sending him flying a spinning motion before DD-Dark Kabuto jumps and lands another kick on Decade's sending him to the floor.

DD-Dark Kabuto then runs to Diend who was slowly standing back and soon punches him on the face, knocking Diend off of his feet and soon kicks on his back sending up in the air before DD-Kabuto grabs onto Diend and throws him back to the floor and kicks him sending him skidding across the floor.

DD-Dark Kabuto then runs to Kiva as he stood back up before DD-Dark Kabuto punches him on head and lands another punch which sends him crashing onto a pillar behind him, and then DD-Dark Kabuto then runs up to Kiva and begins punching him several times with each punch becoming stronger than the last as cracks appeared on the pillar Kiva was on becoming larger and larger, until DD-Dark Kabuto's final punch sends Kiva crashing through the pillar and sends him rolling on the floor.

(End of Clock Up)

As DD-Dark Kabuto exits out of Clock Up, he changes back into Dark Decade, and soon looks at the three down Kamen Riders groaning in pain.

"Minna…" Mio mutters.

"All too easy. Now then…" Dark Decade said before he turns to the down Kiva. "Arc I'm leaving the rest to you."

"Yes sir." Arc said before he walks to Kiva and soon picks him up.

"Basara!" Mio cries out as she was going to run and help, but Dark Decade stops her as he slaps her to the ground.

"Mio…!" Kiva mutters as he struggles to break free from Arc's hold on him.

"Now then it's time that we end this Kiva!" Arc told him as he channels two energy blades from his other hand, and Decade realized what he was going to do.

"Wait don't tell me…Basara no!" Decade shouted as he manage to stand back up and run to save Kiva, but was too late as Arc stabs the energy blades into Kiva's chest creating a shockwave that sends Decade back to the floor and everyone were being pushed back by the shockwave.

Kiva was screaming in pain as Arc's energy channels through his body and Kivat was forced ejected out of his belt before he soon recovers and turns back to Kiva as he reverted back into Basara.

"Basara!" Kivat calls out.

Basara's body was beginning to change shape before he transformed into monstrous form.

Basara's body was colored black and has the features of a dragon and bat, as his feet turned into a bird's talons, his arms were now in the shape of red draconic wings that were in a gold frame with silver blades on the end of them, and his head was now colored red and is in the shape of a dragon's head with three green gems on his forehead.

Basara has now transformed into the Dark Emperor Bat.

His friends were horrified of Basara's monstrous form as Arc let's go him as Kiva flies in the air as he flaps his wings, while Arc and Dark Decade laughs in victory before they turned to Decade and the others.

"Feast your eyes boys and girls, because you've just witness the rebirth of Kiva!" Dark Decade told him.

"As a servant to the Dark Riders!" Arc said before he let's Emperor Bat sit on top of his arm, and then he and Dark Decade saw Decade and Diend now standing back up on their feet. "Now it's about time we test our new weapon, wouldn't you agree, master?"

"Of course, and by all means you do the honor." Dark Decade told him.

"With pleasure." Arc nodded before he pointed Decade and Diend. "Kiva destroy Decade and Diend!"

Emperor Bat roars before he flies at Decade and Diend to attack and slashes them as he flies past the two Riders. Decade and Diend soon saw Kiva flying back towards them while aiming his talons at the two Riders and they manage to dodge it in time by rolling sideways.

Diend then aimed his gun at Emperor Bat which Decade notices.

"Seth no!" Decade calls out.

"Relax I won't hurt him, much!" Diend told him before he fires upon Emperor Bat, but the now monstrous Basara blocks his gunshots with one of his wings before he flies at Diend and smacks his gun/Driver away and soon bites on to Diend's shoulder and throws him across the room before he smashes through a stone pillar behind him as he reverted back into Seth.

"Seth!" Decade said in worry before he saw Emperor Bat flying at him.

Decade soon brought out his Ride Booker in its sword mode to block two slashes from the blades on Emperor Bat's wings, and soon blocks a bite from him as his sword was between his mouth as Decade pushes him back as Emperor Bat still tries to bite on him.

"Basara! I know you're still in there, you have to fight Arc's control!" Decade calls out to him.

"It's useless Decade." Arc stated which made Decade turns to him. "I have trained and learn to enhance my power to turned other races into my servants to levels that are beyond understanding. Now Kiva is forever my servant."

"Kisama…!" Decade growls in anger.

While he wasn't looking Emperor Bat was able to pull Decade's sword out of his hand before and slashed at him using the blades on his wings, Decade was to dodge them but Emperor Bat manage to bite on to Decade so hard it made him cry out in pain, and Emperor Bat then let's go of Decade, and lands two slashes on his chest before he bites on to Decade again and throws him up and smashes him to the floor three times before he throws him up in the air and slashes him away, before Decade was now rolling on the floor.

As he was rolling on the floor Decade reverted back into Alex before he stops rolling.

"Takahashi!" Mio said in worried.

Dark Decade and Arc laughs in enjoyment after seeing Kiva defeated both Decade and Diend.

"Hahaha! Man as much as I like to watch more, I think it's about time to finished things up. Would you agree, Arc?" Dark Decade asked and Arc nodded in understanding.

"Of course. Kiva, kill him!" Arc ordered and Emperor Bat roars as he flies at Alex to finished him.

As Emperor Bat was getting closer Alex braced himself as he closes his eyes and brought one of his arms in front of him, as Mio was watching she then looks down in thought and remembers all of the times Basara was able to save her and soon made her decision as looks back up and runs to Alex.

"Wait! Mio-sama don't!" Maria calls out as she watches her.

Alex opens his eyes when he heard that, before he saw Mio in front of him facing the Emperor Bat as it was now heading towards her.

"Mio what are you doing?!" Alex asked.

"Basara please you have to stop! Basara! Basara!" Mio calls out but Emperor Bat still continues heading towards before Mio calls out his name one more time. "BASARA!"

Emperor Bat's eyes slightly widen after hearing her voice before he suddenly stops in front of Mio with his head a few inches in front of her voice.

"Nani…?" Arc gasped on what he saw and as were the others in the room.

"Basara, you can hear me, don't you?" Mio asked as she slowly placed her hands on Emperor Bat's head. "Then please don't let them win. Don't let them take your soul."

"What are you doing?! Finished her!" Arc ordered which made Emperor Bat to slightly growl but still resisted his command.

"Please Basara," Mio pleaded as she placed her forehead against Emperor Bat's head. "Come back to us...come back to me...so that we'll all go home together. Please..."

Then Mio's Master-Servant pact appears around her neck as an aura appears around her and Emperor Bat before he begins to light up which was so bright that it made the others in the room to cover their eyes.

Then when the light died down everyone soon looks and saw that Emperor Bat was now back to Basara as he and Mio were now on their knees with their foreheads against each other, and then Basara grabs onto Mio's wrists which made her open her eyes and saw Basara is now back to normal as he was smiling at her.

"Basara you're back…" Mio mutters in joy as tears form on her eyes.

"Yeah...thanks to you…" Basara said.

"He's back…" Alex said in a smile on his face, while Seth was still left surprised by what has happened.

"I don't believe it…" Seth mutters in shock.

Arc made a tight fist out of anger as he growls.

"No…!" Arc growls which made Basara and the others turned as they slowly stand back up. "How can this possibly happen again?! How can a mere weakness be this strong?!"

"You call family a weakness but it's not…!" Alex calls out which made everyone turned to him as he stands back on his feet. "It's because he has a family that it can be his strength. And it's because he has something to protect is what gives him the power to fight back. And thanks to the bond between siblings they were able to create a miracle, and that is the power of being a part of a loving family."

"The power of family you say…" Dark Decade growls quietly as he made a tight fist.

"Kisama...just who the hell are you?!" Arc exclaimed loudly.

"I'm just a passing through Kamen Rider, remember that." Alex said before he brought out his Driver and soon turns to Basara. "You still have some fight left in you?"

"Yeah of course." Basara said as he and Mio stands back up and Basara walks to his side. "I mean after all I have something to protect."

"You didn't forget about me, did you?" They turned and saw Seth walking to Alex's other side with his DienDriver in hand.

"Of course I didn't. I've just thought you'd be running away by now." Alex said.

"Oh please, like I was actually going to do that, not without at least paying those two back for the beating they just gave me." Seth said which made Alex smile as he chuckles.

"Fine have it your way then. Let's go you two!" Alex said before he puts on his Driver and Basara nodded.

"Right, Kivat!" Basara calls out and Kivat soon flies around him.

"Yosha! Kivatte ikuze!" Kivat announced as Basara catches him and made him bite on his other hand.

"GABUU!"

Basara's belt appears around his waist as Alex and Seth brought out their Kamen Rider Cards.

"Henshin!" Basara, Alex, and Seth said one at a time before they inserted their respective transformation trinkets into their Drivers.

KAMEN RIDE: DECADE

KAMEN RIDE: DIEND

Soon the three Kamen Riders had transformed into their Kamen Rider Forms as they face the two Dark Riders.

"Mio you look after Maria, we'll handle this." Kiva told her and Mio nodded.

"Got it, just promise me that you'll beat them." Mio said before she runs to Maria.

"You got it." Kiva nodded.

"Fine then, guess we'll just have to destroy you here and now!" Dark Decade said.

"Agreed!" Arc nodded in agreement before he and Dark Decade charges at three Kamen Riders and they did the same as well.

As Arc was closed enough at Kiva and Decade he punches at them, and the two Riders manage to stop his punch in time as they catch it with both of their hands and still stood their ground even if they were slightly skidding backwards.

While Kiva and Decade were occupied Dark Decade aimed his Ride Booker in gun mode at them and was going to fire on them but Diend stops him in time as he fired on his gun knocking it out of his hand.

"You shouldn't ignore me like that." Diend said before he kicks at Dark Decade which he dodges his time and punches at Diend, and Diend blocks his punch in time and was going to punch at Dark Decade with his other hand but the Dark Rider blocks his punch as well as the two were now in an arm lock. "Guys I'll handle Dark Decade! You deal with Arc!"

"Got it!" Decade nodded before Diend pushes Dark Decade back.

"Even if you seperate us, you will never defeat me!" Arc stated loudly as he manage to pushed his fist forward which pushed Kiva and Decade back as they stumble backwards.

Then Arc lifts up and swing his spear down at Kiva and Decade, and Decade soon brought out his Ride Booker in sword mode to block his attack in time, and Arc soon adds more pressure on Decade's arms as he pushed his spear down some more, and Decade's arms were being pushed back by Arc's strength but used that to his advantage as he manage to pushed Arc's spear to the side.

Decade then quickly brought out his Slash Card and inserts into his Driver.

ATTACK RIDE: SLASH

As energy channels around Decade's sword he soon runs past between Arc's legs while slashing on them, which made him fall on one knee.

"GARULU SABER!"

Arc looks and saw Kiva in his Garulu Form armed with his Saber jumping towards his head and lands a slashed on his face as passed by his head as lands beside Decade as he stop running.

The two Riders and Arc turned back at each other, Arc then throws away his spear and punches at both Kiva and Decade with two opened hands, and the two Kamen Riders stops his punches by blocking them with their swords. But then Arc chuckles before he grabs on to their swords and pulls them out Kiva's and Decade's hands before he throws them as Kiva changes back to Base form.

Arc then slaps on both Kiva and Decade which they manage to block but was still sent rolling on the ground before they stop, Decade and Kiva then saw Arc stomping his foot at them which they manage to dodge in time by shoulder rolling.

Decade then saw his Ride Booker before he turns to Kiva as he brought out his Bashaa Fuestle before he turns to him to as well, and the two Riders nodded at each other before they around Arc as Decade was heading towards his Ride Booker.

Arc then saw that Decade was going for his weapon, and Arc spins around while swinging his arm at Decade and Kiva to hit them, Decade and Kiva were able to dodge his attack in time as they jump over his arm one at a time, and as Decade was flying above the floor he grabs onto his Ride Booker before he rolls on the ground, as he was rolling Decade changes his Ride Booker to its gun mode as he brought out his Blast Card and inserts into his Driver, and when Kiva lands on foot and knee he inserts his Fuestle into Kivat's mouth.

ATTACK RIDE: BLAST

"BASHAA MAGNUM!"

As Kiva was changing into his Bashaa Form armed with his Bashaa Magnum, both he and Decade stand back up and the two Riders fires upon Arc with Decade firing with enhance energy shots.

Arc was hit by some of their shots before he manage to block their fire with his arms, after having enough of their shots Arc pushed both of his arms at Decade and Kiva and grabs on to the both of them before he lifts them up.

As Kiva and Decade were struggling to break free from Arc's hold, Arc laughs as he smashes Kiva and Decade on to each other times before he throws them down as they crashed onto the floor.

"Basara! Takahashi!" Mio said in worried.

Decade and Kiva who was now back in his base form were groaning in pain as Arc laughs at them with a mocking tone.

"Like I said before you can never defeat me!" Arc stated.

"He's strong but we can't give up…" Decade said as he stands on one hand and knee.

"I know everyone's depending on us...We can't let them down." Kiva said as he and Decade manage to stand back on their feet as they face Arc to fight him once again.

Decade then saw his Ride Booker being opened and three Cards ejected out of it and Decade catches them in his hand, and sees it was Kiva's Cards now unsealed.

"What are those?" Kiva asked when he saw the Cards in Decade's hand.

"Our trump card, that's what." Decade answered as he pulls out Kiva's Final Form Ride Card and inserts it into his Driver.

FINAL FORM RIDE: K-K-KIVA

"This might tickle a bit." Decade said as he walks to Kiva's back.

"Wait what do you mean by that?" Kiva asked as he turned to him but Decade didn't answer as he pushed him back forward.

"Just hold still, okay." Decade said.

Decade then opens up Kiva's back before Kivat's face appears out of the gap, Kiva then levitated upside down and then his legs becomes wings as they bended sideways, and a silver and chained up arrow head pops out on the top of the head with lever on the bottom.

This is the Kiva Arrow.

"No!" Arc shouted before he charges at Decade.

Decade then grabs on the Kiva Arrow wielding it like bow, and soon pulls out Kiva's Final Attack Ride Card and inserts it into his Driver.

FINAL ATTACK RIDE: K-K-KIVA

Decade then aimed the Kiva Arrow at the charging Arc, and soon pulls down the lever as he did energy channels around the arrow head before it opens up revealing a wing pattern similar to Kiva's Hell's Gate when opened when he does his finishing kick.

Decade soon released the lever which fired an energy shot at Arc, and Arc soon punches on the energy shot, and both of their attacks were in even ground until Decade's energy shot soon overpowers Arc's punch before it pushed his arm away and lands on his chest and soon sends him flying and crashing on the wall behind him.

Decade let's go of the Kiva Arrow as it changes back to Kiva.

"Let's finished this, together!" Decade said he brought out his Final Attack Card.

"Of course." Kiva nodded in agreement before he brought out his Wake Up Fuestle.

Decade inserted his Card into his Driver and Kiva inserted his Fuestle into Kivat's mouth.

"WAKE UP!"

FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-DECADE

Then the two Kamen Riders jump and aimed their signature kick attacks at Arc, and when their kicks collided against they've destroyed him as he exploded, and soon Kiva and Decade lands back on the floor as Arc exploded behind them.

"They did it! They've beaten him, Mio-sama!" Maria said in joy and Mio nodded in agreement.

"Yeah." Mio said.

Dark Decade slashed on Diend as he blocks it with his gun as he stumbles back and the two of them soon saw that Arc was now destroyed.

"No…!" Dark Decade growls in anger, before he saw Kiva and Decade turning to him.

"Looks like you've lost again, Dark Decade." Decade told his dark counterpart.

"This time, but mark my words; this is far from being over." Dark Decade said before a Dimensional Wall appears behind him before he walks into it as it disappears along with him.

"Yeah saids the guy running away." Kivat stated as he flies out of Kiva's belt as Kiva and the two Kamen Rider changed back to their civilian forms.

"But what he said is true, we may have beaten him and his lackeys here in this world, but this won't be the last time I'll be seeing him." Alex said.

"Yeah same goes with me too." Seth sighs as he rubs the back of his head.

"Basara!" They turned and saw Yuki running in the room and stops and hugs Basara.

"Yuki?" Basara said in surprised.

"I'm so glad you're alright." Yuki said as he tightens her hold on him and Basara smiles before he hugs her back.

"Yeah, I'm sorry for worrying you though." Basara said before they let go of each other. "But anyway, is Maria's mother alright?"

"Yeah she is don't worry." Yuki told him.

"Maria!" They turned and saw someone behind the opened door and Maria recognizes her.

"Okaa-san!" Maria said before her mother walks into the room.

She was about the same height as her daughter but is also slightly shorter than her, and almost looks identical as Maria, with two purple horns on her head with long silver hair tied in twintails and has purple eyes, she was wearing a white dress. This is Shella the mother of Maria.

"That's your mother?" Basara asked in surprised that she looks so young.

"Yeah I know how you feel, I was surprised by her appearance too." Seth said while Alex shrugged.

"Well you shouldn't forget she is a demon. So for all we know that might not even be her true form." Alex said.

"You are safe, Maria. I'm so glad." Shella said as she walks towards Maria.

"But how…?" Maria asked.

"Thanks to our accomplice." Basara told her.

"Accomplice…?" Maria said.

(Meanwhile outside)

Zolgia appears outside of his palace, while still having his remaining hand mending the wound where his other arm was to hold back the bleeding.

"Damn that human...how dared he hurt me…" Zolgia mutters in anger.

"My, my, it has been a long time, Marquis Zolgia." Zolgia looks up and saw Lars standing in front of him.

"Lars?! But how?!" Zolgia gasped in shock seeing Lars alive and standing.

"Oh? Did you forget that I am a puppeteer specialist." Lars said.

"I see...so Zest only killed one of your dummies. What a truly useless woman." Zolgia said.

"You're not in a position to talk either, your excellency." Lars stated.

"Nani?" Zolgia said.

"I mean, can you guess who was the one that freed Sheila, as Kiva and his allies kept you busy?" Lars asked.

"What? You mean…" Zolgia gasped as he realized it was Lars that freed Sheila.

(Flashback)

As Kiva and the others were fighting against the Dark Riders in the throne room, Lars and Diend had found Shella inside the cage that Zolgia imprison her in.

"A super electromagnetic device, huh? What a bad taste." Lars said as he brought out a magic power tablet.

"Can you deactivate it?" Diend asked.

"Please this will child's play for me." Lars said as he inserted his tablet into the cage's lock.

"Lars?" Shella said in surprised as she saw Lars. "Why are you here?"

Lars then hacks into the device's locks.

"There are several traps placed together, but...this is all?" Lars asked as the cage device was being deactivated. "He must have been quite confident that this place would not be discovered."

When the cage's failsafes were now shut off, Lars opens it and offered his hand to Shella.

"Please hurry and get out of here. Unless you want to be fried in a microwave." Lars told her.

(End of flashback)

"So you were the one responsible of freeing Shella, while using Basara Toujou and his allies as your makeshift dummies." Zolgia concluded.

"It was one of the conditions in the deal that I made with Basara Toujou." Lars told him.

"What?!" Zolgia gasped in shock.

(Flashback)

In his meeting of Basara and after attacking him, Basara jumps out of the smoke cloud and face him.

"Takigawa, tell me what reward you'd expect for your help." Basara said.

"Reward?" Yahiro asked.

"I'll see to it, no matter what." Basara assured him.

Yahiro ponders about it before he chuckles as he smirks.

"I see. I guess that's an option too. But can you honestly do it? Can you grant my desire?" Yahiro asked.

Basara nodded with strong determination in his eyes.

(End of flashback)

"I had intended to be a bit more cautious in my plan, though." Lars stated.

"Just what are you plotting?" Zolgia asked.

"With your magic power now weaken, and one arm missing and the hole in your chest, you're just an old man who can't do anything right now. Will you come quietly with me?" Lars requested.

"Are you planning to sell me out to Leohart?" Zolgia asked.

"Not in the slightest." Lars answered and Zolgia was surprised to hear.

"Then Lars...what are you really after?" Zolgia asked.

"I am sure you do not remember the names of those you killed, but...When his majesty Willbert selected the foster parents to entrust raising his daughter Mio in the human realm, he chose two especially kind people in his service." Lars explained.

"What are you talking about?" Zolgia asked.

"They took in many orphaned children who lost their families and homes in the great war, and they have loved and raised them like their own. Especially those like me, who grew up in their orphanage and loved them like a father and mother." Lars told him.

"Wait...you don't mean…" Zolgia gasp as he realized one of those orphans is standing right in front of him.

"That's right, Zolgia…" Lars said as he removes mask, his face looks similar from his Yahiro persona and has eye markings around his eyes . "I gave Basara Toujou and his allies only one condition. To kill you, Zolgia, with my own hands."

Zolgia eyes widen in fear once again as he was now in Lars's mercy but sadly for the injured old demon, Lars wasn't planning on giving him any mercy.

(Back with Basara and the others)

Shella had explained to Maria that it was Lars that freed.

"Then it was thanks for him that you're free…" Maria said while being surprised that Lars had helped them.

"Yes, and as you can see I'm alright. But I'm sorry Maria. It was because of me that you'd suffer all this time." Sheila said before she and Maria hugs each other.

"Okaa-san!" Maria said in joy while her friends smiles being happy for her, except for Seth who looks away as he scratches his finger on his cheek.

"I can't believe Maria's mother is this litt-, I mean young…" Basara said which made Shella turned to him and the others.

"My, my, well pardon me for the late introductions. I'm Maria's mother, Shella. Thank you for taking care of my daughter." Shella told them.

"S-Sure...How kind of you. Thanks." Basara told her.

Zest then senses that something is wrong with the palace.

"Zolgia-sama's zero-particle reaction surrounding this mansion has disappeared." Zest said.

"It means Zolgia's barrier is gone, right?" Maria asked and Zest nodded.

"Well if it's gone, then that means we can get out of here." Seth said.

"Yeah, let's all go back home." Basara told them and they nodded before Zest told them.

"It's futile. I knew that man had abandon me, but for him to do this." Zest said.

"What do you mean?" Basara asked.

They the palace was beginning to shake and they soon saw it was beginning to transformed into organic lifeform as the insides turns into flesh and bones.

"What is this?" Yuki said.

"It is like a living creature. It can't be…" Maria said.

"Even for his excellency, it is practically impossible to maintain a constant barrier powerful enough to deceive his majesty Leohart. That is why he made the demon realm's most powerful but yet dangerous creature into his base, and took advantage of its ability to cut off dimensions. Zolgia-sama has merely transformed it physically and put it to sleep." Zest explained to them.

"And with Zolgia's magic now undone, this very creature is beginning to wake up, right?" Alex asked and Zest answered by nodding.

Then a drop of the creature's saliva falls from the ceiling and onto Yuki's armored shoulder and it slightly melted her armor.

"Yuki?" Basara said in worried.

"I'm alright." Yuki told him.

"I guess it's safe to assume, that we're in this thing's stomach." Seth said.

"That's right." Zest nodded.

Then a large bug like creature jumps out of the floor and jumps toward Maria and her mother, and Yuki saves them as she cuts the bug down.

"Is there any way out of here?" Yuki asked before she and the others turned to Zest.

"It is impossible to escape from this space when it is dimensionally cut off." Zest told them.

"So even if we wanted to, we can't use our powers to travel through worlds to escape from here." Alex said while Seth clicks tongue.

"Now that's a real pain…" Seth said.

"And I'm afraid there's more…" Zest said getting everyone's attention.

(In the outside)

Lars and Zolgia had seen his palace had transformed into a large ball of organic material and is growing larger and larger by every second.

"You've brought one of the most dangerous beasts in the demon realm here in the human world? If you do that, then you know what would happen!" Lars gasped in shock that Zolgia would even take such a risk.

"That is why it's my perfect insurance plan." Zolgia said with a victorious grin on his face. "This world is filled with the aura of life that if favors. Once free from my control, it will multiply infinitely, and will soon swallow up this world whole along with everything in it."

"What?!" Lars growls as he glares at Zolgia.

"I can't afford to let someone else have the fish that got away, can I?" Zolgia asked in a mocking tone.

Lars then grabs onto Zolgia and lifts him up at his face.

"You bastard…!" Lars exclaimed in anger.

"Perish! Perish along with everything!" Zolgia shouted.

(Back with Basara and the others)

Basara, Alex, and Seth were now in their Kamen Rider forms, as more creatures come charging at them.

Kiva punches two that were coming at him, Decade slashes a few of them as well, while Diend was shooting at them, and Yuki slashes one of the creatures in half and while Mio was firing at them with attack spells. As they were fighting the creatures off Zest had explained the rest of the creature's details.

"Multiply infinitely?" Kiva said as he punches on another creature.

"So even if you manage to escape from here, eventually it will devour this world…" Zest told them.

"That can't be…" Mio said as he fired a fireball at another creature.

Maria kicks a creature was heading towards her and her mother.

"Mother, please do not leave my side!" Maria told her.

"Yes, I will not…" Shella said.

"Zest, does this creature have any vital organs?" Kiva asked.

"It does have a core in the center of the mansion, but that is the nucleus of the dimensional separation. Neither magical or physical attacks can't harm it." Zest told them.

"Even so this thing can't be invincible. It must have a weakness." Decade said as he changes his sword to its gun mode and fired on another group of incoming creatures.

"Yeah, and I think I have something that might work against it. You guys wait here." Kiva said before he walks forward.

"Basara, where are you going?" Mio asked before Kiva stops walking.

"With Banishing Shift complete erasure, I might be able to eliminate the dimensional separation." Kiva told her.

"You can't, it's too dangerous!" Mio told him.

"There's no time to argue. We can't let this thing expand any further." Kiva said.

"But Basara…" Mio said.

"I promise to Kivat and to myself that I'll protect everyone, my family, my friends, and the people in our city, I'm going to protect them no matter the cost. Even if it costs me my life." Kiva told them.

Mio then walks to his side.

"Then I'm going too." Mio said.

"What? But Mio…" Kiva said.

"It's impossible for you to break through to the center on your own." Mio said as she and Kiva saw the wall of creature in front of them. "Older brothers aren't the only ones who wants to protect their family. Little sisters do, too. Especially their precious older brothers."

"I'm going as well." Yuki said as she walks to Kiva's other side.

"Yuki…" Kiva said.

"You'll need time to use Banishing Shift's complete elimination. So Mio and I will protect you." Yuki told him.

"I'm going as well." Decade said as he walks to Mio's side. "I mean after all you need all of the help you can get, right?"

"Alex…" Kiva said.

"Normally, I would be going as well, but…" Maria said before they turned to her.

"It's alright, you need to protect your mother. Otherwise, all our hard work have been for nothing." Mio said.

"Yeah that's true, but just to be safe." Decade said before he turns to Diend. "Hey Seth!"

Diend turns to Decade.

"Can I trust you to look after Maria and her mother while we're gone?" Decade asked, Diend huffed before he nodded.

"Consider it done." Diend told him.

"Mio-sama...I…" Maria mutters.

"You don't have to say it. I've always been grateful to you." Mio told her which made Maria form tears on the edge of her eyes.

"Shella-san, when we return, please tell us stories about Maria's childhood." Mio requested.

"Yes, as many as you'd like." Shella told them.

"O-Okaa-san…" Maria said while feeling a little embarrassed to hear that.

Mio nodded before she turns to Kiva.

"This is no time to dawdle. Let's go save the world." Mio said.

"Wait, I haven't agreed to let you…" Kiva said before Yuki interrupted him.

"You're the one who said there's no time to argue." Yuki told him.

Decade then placed his hand on Kiva's shoulder.

"You might as well give up. Their minds are already set on this." Decade told him.

Kiva sighs as he shrugged.

"Alright then let's get going." Kiva told them and they nodded.

"I will lead you to the center core." Zest told them as they turned to her.

"You…" Kiva said.

"It is up to you to decide whether or not to trust me." Zest told them.

Kiva thinks about it and soon made his decision as he nodded.

"Alright, please help us." Kiva requested.

"Understood." Zest said as she turns to a wall and fired a black fire making a large hole for them to enter as she walks inside.

"Let's go." Kiva said and his friends nodded agreement before they follow behind her while the others being left behind watches them leave.

"You better not let us down." Diend said.

Kiva and the others were now running in a hallway of the creature while following Zest who was leading them to the core.

Then suddenly a tentacle made from the creature's flesh grabs onto Mio's ankle making her fall to the floor.

"Huh? Ah!" Mio screams before Yuki catches her and cuts the tentacle off of her.

"Are you alright?" Yuki asked.

"Yes, thank you." Mio answered.

Kiva punches a few more tentacles that were heading towards them while Decade slashed them away as he cuts them down.

"Dang it there's just no end to these things." Decade said in frustration.

"Zest, are we there yet?" Kiva asked.

"The central section with the core is below us." Zest told them before they head forward again.

Then they soon stop in front of a dead end.

"What's wrong?" Kiva asked.

"The mansion's structure was held in place with magic, and since the creature's physical transformation has been undone, that has begun to change." Zest told them.

"So you're saying we can't go any further?" Kiva asked before he punches one creature away as it was heading towards him.

"No quite. We just have to force our way forward." Zest answered.

Zest then placed her hand in front of the wall in front of them before a magic circle appeared in front of her hand and she soon unleashed a dark flame that burns the wall of flesh away opening a hole for them.

They soon run into another hallway to the creature's core, before they soon stop in front of a stairway going down.

"We're going down there?" Mio asked before she and the others saw that the stairs were made of flesh. "It looks a little creepy."

Then the stairs change into leech like creatures as they were growling at them, which made Mio step back in shock.

"No! What is this?" Mio asked.

They soon saw that small portions of the walls were changing into leech like creatures as well.

"Okay now that is just nasty." Decade said while being a little sick right now.

"The creature's immune system is activating to defend itself. We need to hurry." Zest told them before the floor behind them turned into leech tentacles.

Yuki turns to the tentacles behind them.

"Go on ahead! I'll hold them off here." Yuki told them.

"What are you saying, Yuki? There's too many of them!" Kiva told her.

"There's no time! You can't pull off Banishing Shift's complete elimination with this many enemies around you. They'll only keep multiplying even further as we stand here. Hurry up and go!" Yuki told him.

"But…" Kiva mutters before Decade placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Basara she's right, we don't have time to argue about this." Decade told his fellow Rider.

"Believe in me, Basara." Yuki told him, Kiva nodded reluctantly knowing this was the best course of action and that they're both right.

"Alright, I trust you. But don't you dare die." Kiva told his childhood friend, and Yuki answers by nodding.

"Yuki…" Mio said in worried.

Then a large creature was heading towards her, and Yuki kill its as she stabs her sword in its mouth and soon cuts it into pieces.

"Don't worry. I don't intend on letting you have Basara all for yourself, Mio." Yuki said before she jumps at incoming flying insects heading towards her and she manage to cut them down before she lands on the ground.

Zest then fired a dark fireball to the ground creating a hole for them to enter to the floor beneath.

"The core is just below here. Since we can not use the stairs, we will have to go this way." Zest told them before she jumps down through the hole she made.

"Guess we're really doing this." Decade said before he jumps down the hole as well.

Kiva then picks Mio up in a bridal carry which was much to her surprised.

"Let's go, Mio." Kiva told her, Mio slightly blushed before she nodded.

"Y-Yeah…" Mio mutters.

Kiva looks at Yuki one more time before he jumps down the hole too, as Yuki faces more creatures in front of her. Yuki then charges at the creatures and cuts them down.

Decade and Kiva did a few quick landings on the wall and spinal bones beside them before they land on the floor below.

Kiva let's Mio stand back on her feet.

"Let's go." Kiva said.

"Yeah." Mio nodded.

"Right." Decade nodded before they run and stop behind Zest who was standing in the middle of the room as she was waiting for them.

"I was not allowed to go any further. This is where his excellency Zolgia kept his private room. The core should be directly below it." Zest told them.

Decade then looks around the room before he notices something about it.

"Wait a minute...this room is…" Decade mutters.

Mio then looks around the room before she notices the spinal bones have a large hole in them and saw a person inside of it.

Mio's eyes widen when she the person inside looks exactly like Zest, but the only difference that the half of her body is black with blue markings.

"This looks like Zest?" Mio said.

Then suddenly the Zest copy opens her eyes revealing red eyes with blue pupils, much to Mio's shock when she opens her eyes, then the Zest copy pounces at her.

"No…!" They turned and saw the Zest copy is choking Mio with her hands around her neck.

"Mio!" Kiva gasped.

"Let her go!" Decade shouted as he punches the Zest clone forcing her to let go of Mio as she fallen on the ground. "You alright?"

"Yeah I am, thanks Takahashi…" Mio said as she mended her neck.

Zest then saw her clone's face which was much to her shock after seeing it.

"It can't be…" Zest mutters.

Decade then saw another clone heading towards Kiva.

"Basara behind you!" Decade calls out, and Kiva looks but was too late as the clone pushed him down to the ground.

Kiva pushes the clone back as it tries to bite on him.

"Basara!" Decade said as he was run to help but when he did he failed to notice another clone heading towards him before she grabs behind him and pushed him down to the ground.

"Takahashi!" Mio said before another clone behind her grabs hold of her neck.

"Mio! Dammit!" Kiva said as he tries to pushed the clone off of him.

"Let go of me!" Decade said as he elbow strikes the clone on top of his back to get it off of him but it was still holding on to him.

Zest looks down as she growls before she fired a dark flame at the clones that were on top and holding onto Kiva, Decade, and Mio as they manage to pushed them.

As Kiva and Decade stands back up they soon saw several more clones walking out of the bones/containers as they begin to surround them.

"Zest, what on earth are these things?" Kiva asked.

"There's no time. Destroy them all." Zest told them.

"No need to tell me twice." Decade said as he pulls out his Ride Booker in sword made before he cuts down two clones that were heading towards him.

"Yeah." Kiva and Mio nodded before runs at the clones in front of them.

Mio casted a wind spell at a clone sending it flying to the ground but that clone stands back up, which surprised Mio.

Zest then slams her fist to the ground which created a shockwave that destroyed two of her clones.

Kiva punches and kicks several clones that were coming at him.

One of the clones then fired a dark flame at Kiva, but Zest protects him with a magic shield to block the flame.

"They can already use magic?" Zest said.

"Already?" Kiva repeated, wondering what she means.

Another clone casted a black flame spell at Kiva, which he dodges by jumping over it and lands an axe drop kick on the clone's head sending it to the ground.

Decade stabs through one of the clones with his sword, and when he pulls his sword out from it he saw three others firing a black flame spell at him, which he dodges by shoulder rolling, as he was rolling on the ground he changes his sword to its gun mode and when stops on one knee and foot he fired upon the clones destroying them.

Zest stabs her hand straight through the last of her clones killing it as it body falls part.

Zest looks at the remains of her clones with disgust in her eyes.

"So I was abandoned from the very beginning?" Zest said before she continues to walk forward to the creature's core.

"Zest?" Kiva said.

"Let us go." Zest said and Kiva was about to ask her something until Decade stops him as he placed his hand on his shoulder before he shook his head.

"Best to leave her alone about this, for now." Decade told him.

Zest then fired a black flame on the floor creating a hole which leads to the next and final floor beneath them, and for them to enter through.

While carrying Mio again, Kiva, Decade and Zest lands on the floor of the center section facing the creature's core in front of them.

"This is it." Zest told them as Kiva let's Mio stand on her feet. "That is the creature's vital core."

"First we have to do something about everything that's covering it." Kiva said, and the others nodded in agreement.

Mio and Zest walk forward and was going to cast a spell around the core, until suddenly a tentacle creature appears in the floor in front of them and bashes Mio and Zest away.

"Dammit!" Kiva said before he and Decade jumps to the core, but before they could reach it another tentacle slams them back to the ground.

Then another tentacle creature fired acid at Mio and Zest as they stand back up and dodges the acid in time.

"Guys I think this is the core's final defense system, and judging by how it's reacting it must be predicting our attacks before we do them." Decade said before he dodges an acid spit that was heading towards him.

"So if we try to attack it, then it just counters like that?" Mio concluded.

"Dammit." Kiva said as he stands back up with Zest standing beside him. "There has to be a way through. We can't give up after coming so far."

Zest then begins to walk forward.

"Zest?" Kiva said as he watches her.

"I will make multiple attacks at close range so its counter attacks will focus on me. Time your attack, and eliminate it in that very moment." Zest instructed him.

"Waif, if you do that, then you'll…" Kiva said before Zest stops in front of the core.

"The monsters we just faced...were me." Zest told them, and Kiva's eyes widen in shock when she said.

"Nani?" Kivat asked while also surprised.

"I am a magical organism created by his excellency Zolgia." Zest told them and Mio was also surprised to hear while Decade looks down as he already figured that out after seeing those clones.

"His excellency was always dissatisfied by the imperfections in my heart." Zest then made a sad smile on her face. "I was created as a prototype to test out for errors."

Then the creatures took the form of sharp spikes themselves aiming at Zest.

"You do not need to concern yourself with my life." Zest told them.

"You're really saying you're not afraid to die?" Mio asked but Zest didn't answer her. "Don't be stupid! You were envious of the relationship that we share with Basara, weren't you?"

"You...You do have a heart." Mio told her.

"She's right the fact that you have emotions is proof that your heart is genuine. It proves that you're a living being just like the rest of us." Decade told her.

"Yeah...so how could we just abandon you to die?!" Mio asked.

Zest opens her eyes as she looks at the core.

"Kiva...no Basara Toujou…" Zest calls out, and Kiva nodded.

"Alright...do it." Kiva told her as he drew out his sword Brynhildr and transformed into his Brynhildr form.

"Basara?!" Mio gasped in shock that he just said that.

"Are you sure?" Zest asked as Kiva got ready.

"Of course." Kiva said in strong determination.

"Zest, no!" Mio calls out.

Zest summons several magic circles around her which made the spikes around to thrust at her.

Using this chance Kiva charges forward and jumps at the core and swings his sword at it to unleashed his Banishing Shift at it, and soon his attack spread throughout the room eliminating the core and the room around it.

(Back outside)

As the creature had now developed to his fully evolved form, it was soon growling in pain before it unleashed a beam a light from its mouth destroying a mountain in front of it before it falls to the ground, as Lars and Zolgia watch.

"Well I'll be damn. They actually did it." Lars said knowing that Kiva and his group were responsible for this.

"I-Impossible!" Zolgia gasped in shock.

"It appears that your last hope has failed you." Lars told him which made Zolgia flinched as Lars turned in front of him. "It's over, Zolgia."

Zolgia's face twisted in fear, as Lars placed his hand in front of his face as he summons a magic circle.

(Later at night)

In the large crater that the creature has made after it was destroyed, Zest is seen in that crater unconscious but is still alive before she begins to wake up.

"Yo, you're finally awake I see." Zest looks and saw Seth sitting beside her.

"It's you…" Zest mutters as she sits back up.

Zest then saw the amulet on her chest light up before it disappeared meaning she was now free from Zolgia's magic now and forever. She then looks around saw the unconscious Mio and Yuki lying on the ground.

"I see...so he saved me again." Zest said as she remembers what has happened.

(Flashback moments ago)

Before Zest could summons the magic circles, Kiva and Decade turned at each other before they nodded at each other, before Kiva had Kivat bite on his sword.

"BRYNHILDR BITE!"

Then Zest summons the magic circles around her and the spears thrusts at her, and Kiva charges forward and soon appeared by Zest as he runs past her.

"Huh?" Zest gasped in surprised that he did that.

Kiva then pushed her away from the spears and from the core, and Decade catches her before he jumps further away from the core.

Kiva dodges the spears by jumping over them and was now heading towards the core.

"Banishing Shift!" Kiva shouted as he swings his sword at the core to unleashed his technique at it as the Banishing Shift spread throughout the room.

(End of flashback)

Zest was still amaze that Kiva was so willing to save her despite everything that she had done to him and to his family.

"You do not seem to be opposing us anymore." Zest then looks up and saw Shella standing in front of her while carrying an unconscious Maria in her arms. "Are you sure you will not run away?"

"My life has been spared twice now. I want to leave what happens to me up to that man now." Zest said before she realized that both Basara and Alex were not here. "Where is Basara Toujou, and Decade?"

"Hell if I know, they just up and decided to leave us here, after I woke up." Seth said.

"Don't worry though they'll be back soon." Shella told her.

The others begin to wake up as well, before Mio and Yuki sits back up.

(Meanwhile)

After Zolgia's creature was destroyed, Lars had brought the older demon to his own personal torture room that was in a pocket dimension.

Lars had spent most of the time torturing Zolgia using the tools inside and with every and painful torture technique that he knows, but still kept Zolgia alive as he was still breathing while being tied up by magic energy and is now missing one of his eyes as blood was running down that now empty eye hole.

"I can't have you dying on me yet. I'm actually holding back, you know." Lars told him.

"Don't get full of yourself...once my power recovers, I'll deal with you in no time…" Zolgia warned him.

They soon heard a knock on the door.

"So you're finally here." Lars said and Zolgia slightly flinched, while Lars shrugged with a smile on his face. "There were two people who insisted on watching you die in person."

'Is it Zest? Or one of Lars's comrades that also have a grudge against me?' Zolgia wonders in thought, before he smiles. 'Either way, this will work out for me. It is easier to manipulate those with hatred towards me. I will use that chance...'

Then the door opened to Zolgia's despair it was two people that he wasn't expected to arrive here, and it was Basara and Alex along with Kivat who was seated on Basara's shoulder.

"Basara Toujou?! Decade?!" Zolgia gasped as the two enter the room while closing the door behind them.

"Sorry, that we're late." Basara told Lars.

"You sure are. I would not have been able to wait much longer." Lars told them.

"Yeah sorry about that, it took us longer than we thought to slip out of sight from the others." Alex said.

"What's going on? Why are you two here?" Zolgia demanded.

"Actually, there was one other condition to our deal." Lars told him.

"Nani?" Zolgia gasped.

"After this incident, it's clear that Mio Naruse and Yuki Nonaka will became aware of my identity. In exchange for vouching for me to them, he asked me to let him confirm your death. Though I wonder why you wanted to be a part of this too?" Lars said while eyeing on Alex.

"It's because I don't want Basara to witness this alone." Alex said.

"Same goes with me as well." Kivat said.

"T-Then...Basara Toujou...how about we make a deal?!" Zolgia pleaded. "You know as long as she possesses Wilbert's power, Mio Naruse's life will continue to be in danger, not just by those in the demon realm but the Fangire as well! I can provide you more information than Lars can uncover! You understand, don't you?! Especially if you are thinking about that girl's safety above all."

Zolgia then saw the look in Basara's eyes, and sees that he has no intention of helping him, he then turned to Alex.

"You! It's Decade right?! If you save me, I'll give you anything you want! Just name it! Priceless treasures! Jewels! I'll give you hundreds of beautiful women! I'll give you power beyond your imagination! I can even make you a king of a country, no, the whole world!" Zolgia said.

Alex sighs.

"Sorry but I'm not interested in those kinds of things, and I'm even less interested on saving someone like you." Alex coldy told him which made Zolgia gasped in shock.

"Now, I'm getting sick and tired of looking at that stomach-turning face of yours. So I think it's time to end this." Lars stated. "Okay, Basachi?"

"Yeah." Basara said.

Zolgia cries out in fear when he said that.

Lars then brought out his hand in front of Zolgia's face and summon a magic circle in front of it.

"No stop! Please no!" Zolgia begged him as he screams in horror, before his head exploded in a bloody explosion as his blood splash to the floor.

(Later)

After witnessing Zolgia's death, Basara, Kivat and Alex returned to the Toujou-Naruse house, and Basara was left wondering he did the right thing before he asked.

"Hey Alex, we did the right thing, did we?" Basara asked, Alex ponders about it before he sighs.

"It's hard to say really. In my opinion no one should have the right to play, judge, jury, and executioner." Alex said which made Basara looks down before Alex patted him on the back which made Basara look back him. "But Basara, you only did what you thought was right to protect your family, so I can't exactly fault you for that."

"He's right, Basara." Kivat said getting his partner's attention. "And I just know if Jin was here, he'll say same thing, or if he was in your shoes he would've done the same as well."

Basara then thought back to the first morning when he move in with both Mio and Maria in their new house, and when they took their first family photo on that, and remembers his father's word to him on that time.

"Basara, what's with that look? Smile."

Basara smiles before he looks back at the house.

"Yeah you're right." Basara said, which made Alex and Kivat smile.

"Well anyway it's getting late, I should head back to my place before my friends starts to worry about me, see ya tomorrow." Alex said before he leaves.

"Wait Alex," Basara calls out which made Alex stop walking before he turns to him. "Thanks again for everything."

Alex smirks before he walks away again while waving Basara goodbye.

"It's no problem. I was happy to help." Alex said as he leaves the area.

Basara then turns to his house and soon walks inside.

After cleaning himself up and puts on a change of clothes, Basara along with Kivat enters the living room as he closed the door behind him.

"We're home." Basara and Kivat said in the same time.

The ones in the living room was Yuki who was sitting on the chair and Zest who was sitting on the couch. Yuki soon stands up to greet Basara.

"Welcome home, Basara, and Kivat." Yuki said. "Where were you? I was worried since I couldn't sense your whereabouts."

"Sorry, I was just keeping my promise to our accomplice." Basara told her.

"A promise?" Yuki repeated.

"I'll talk about it when everyone's around." Basara said. "Is there a problem?"

"Not at the moment." Yuki answered. "Maria and her mother are sleeping. Though Mio seems to be awake."

"I see." Basara said.

"I think it would be quicker if you finished me off instead of going through all this trouble." Zest stated.

"Stop that, Zest. You need to find a new way to live." Basara told her.

"A new way…?" Zest repeated.

"We'll get you the time you need to find it." Basara told her.

"I understand. I will obey your orders, Basara Toujou." Zest said.

"Basara…" Yuki calls out getting her childhood friend's attention as he turned to her.

"What is it, Yuki?" Basara asked.

"What will we do from now on?" Yuki asked.

"What do you mean?" Basara asked.

"We've manage to defeat Zolgia and the Dark Riders, but others will continue to go after Mio so long as she possesses Wilbert's power." Yuki told him.

"She does have a point, Basara." Kivat said.

"That's…" Basara said while not being sure himself.

"It's fine so long as you understand." Yuki said.

"Yeah just take your time and think it over, there's no reason to rush." Kivat told him.

"Thanks. Well anyway I'm going to check on Mio and Maria. Let me know if there's any trouble." Basara said before he heads to the door.

"Okay." Yuki nodded as Basara leaves the room.

Basara heads to Maria's room first to check on her, as he quietly opens the door and saw Maria and her mother Shella sleeping on her bed together.

Basara smiles while being happy for Maria before he closes the door.

Maria was already awake when Basara opened the door as she slightly opens her eyes.

As Basara was now standing in the hallway before Mio calls out to him.

"Welcome home." Basara turns and saw Mio standing beside him.

"I'm home, Mio." Basara said.

Basara and Mio were now in his room together with Mio sitting on his bed, and Basara left for a quick while to make Mio a warm cup of milk as he handed it to her.

"Here's some hot milk." Basara said. "It'll warm up your body if you drink it and help you sleep."

"Thanks." Mio said as she gratefully accepted the cup.

"But are you alright being in my room?" Basara asked.

"Yes." Mio nodded.

"Well, I guess it's better than talking in the hallway." Basara said before he starts to walk away but Mio stops him as she grabs onto his shirt before he turns to her.

Mio was looking down, while Basara blinks in confusion as he scratches his finger on his cheek. Basara then sits beside her and soon saw she was shaking.

Basara then placed his hand on her shoulder which made Mio stop shaking as she looks back up.

"It's all right now." Basara told her, and Mio smiles as she nods.

"Yeah…" Mio said before she leans on to Basara. "Sorry…Can we stay like this a little longer?"

"Sure." Basara told her as he smiles.

After Mio was done with the cup of milk she placed it on the shelf of the bed while Basara requested her to do something for him.

"So I just need to tell the moderate-faction demons not to harm or do anything weird to Zest, when they come to retrieve Maria's mother? Alright, it will be done." Mio told him.

"Sorry for putting you in a difficult position." Basara told her.

"Don't be," Mio shook her head. "It's fine, and it's not a problem for me. After all, I have all of you with me now. Right?"

Basara then remembers another talk he had with Lars after he told him about the Master-Servant pact.

"By adding the succubus's aphrodisiac effect, if anyone aside from her steals her chastity, then the subordinate is assaulted with pleasure until they break."

"Did he do anything to you?" Basara asked in worry.

"No. You and the others came for me in time." Mio told him.

Then a green flame appeared in one of Basara's eyes before he remembers Yuki's words to him.

"Others will continue to go after Mio."

Basara then left his hand shaking rapidly as he left a burning feeling inside of him, and Kivat then senses was wrong with Basara.

"Basara?" Kivat said wondering what he had sense just now.

"I won't let anyone…" Basara growls.

"Basara?" Mio said while wondering what was up with him.

Basara then grabs onto Mio's shoulders.

"I won't let anyone else steal it!" Basara said loudly before he pushed Mio down on his bed.

"Huh? Hey, Basara!" Mio said being off-guard by Basara's actions.

Basara then kiss Mio for a while before he sits up before he placed his hands on her chest much to Mio's surprised.

"W-Wait a minute!" Mio gasped.

Basara then lifts up her shirt exposing her chest as he continues to move his hands on Mio's chest. Basara then kiss Mio again as he continues moving his hands on her, and Mio allowed this as she closes her eyes before she hugs onto Basara as her legs rub against each other.

After their passionate kiss Basara then sits back up and looks at as she was gasping for air, before Basara's eyes widen in shock before he blushed, on what he had just done with her.

"S-Sorry, I…!" Basara said before he quickly turns away from Mio.

Mio then opens her eyes before she sits up and looks at Basara as she fixes her shirt.

"I'm really sorry. My mind just suddenly went blank!" Basara stated, Mio blink a few times before she smiles.

"No. I won't forgive you." Mio told him.

"W-What do I need to do for you to forgive me?" Basara asked.

"Let's see...there is one way I might forgive you, but do you really want to know?" Mio asked.

"Y-Yeah…" Basara said.

Mio then grabs onto Basara as she leans on his back.

"Then kiss me once more. Then you should understand...That what you just did isn't something to apologize for." Mio told him before she closes her eyes. "If you don't want anyone else to steal it, then take me for yourself again."

Mio's opens her eyes that Basara didn't answer, she then let's go of him wondering if something is wrong.

"Basara?" Mio calls out before she blinks as she saw Yuki in the room standing in front of them. "Huh?"

Yuki then grabs onto Basara's shirt and pulls her childhood friend to her for a kiss. Basara could feel her tongue in his mouth playing around with his own tongue.

"What the…?!" Mio said in anger and jealousy as she watches.

Yuki then stops her passionate kiss with Basara as she pulls away from him as Basara lowers his head.

"Hmph! I thought you were in shock and tried to show some consideration, but I can't let my guard down." Yuki said.

"W-Why are you here?!" Mio demanded. "What happened to guarding that demon Zest?"

"Don't worry. I've brought her, too." Yuki told them.

Zest walks into the room while Kivat flies inside as Zest closes the door behind them.

"Kivat? What's going on?" Basara asked.

"No, more importantly, how long have you been there?" Mio asked.

"Since, 'After all, I have all of you with me now', Mio Naruse." Zest answered her.

"Then you've been there for a while, haven't you?!" Mio exclaimed.

"Yeah, I'm sorry you two. I tried to stop them but they sort of overpowered me." Kivat said while rubbing the back of his head.

"I don't understand why you're getting angry with me when you tried to grab the lead and get Basara to spoil you. You're quite the thieving cat." Yuki said before she walks to Basara and placed her hands beside his neck. "Basara, take me, too."

"No, wait." Basara said before Mio got in front of Yuki's face.

"Just what do you think you're saying right now?!" Mio asked in anger.

(Meanwhile)

As Mio and Yuki now started to argue against each other and while Basara and Kivat tries to calm them down to stop arguing, Maria is seen standing in front of his room while overhearing their conversation.

'It does not appear to be the mood to say farewells. Even if I am not around, they will continue to protect Mio-sama's smile.' Maria thought with a smile on her face before she heads back to her room.

As she was halfway in the hallway, Basara strongly opens the door and saw Maria before she turns around after hearing the door open.

"Maria!" Basara said in relief in his voice as he runs to her. "Thank goodness! Come with me for a bit!"

Basara grabs onto her hand and drags Maria with her as they head to his room.

"Huh? Umm…" Maria said.

Then when Basara and Maria entered their room, they soon watch as Mio and Yuki still continues to argue at each other while Kivat tries to get them to stop and while Zest only watches them.

"Those two are completely riled up, and they're not listening to anything I say. Please! Help break them up." Basara requested from the succubus.

"Huh? But you're asking me so suddenly…" Maria said.

Basara claps his hands onto each other in front of him.

"Please help me! I really need you!" Basara requested which made Maria blinks in surprised.

"Maria!" Mio's call out which made Maria to turned to her master and Yuki as the two were now looking at her. "You're on my side, aren't you?"

"You don't need to give in to her threat." Yuki told her. "If you side with me, then I'll help you do lewd things to Mio."

"I'm not threatening her! And what do you mean you'll 'help' her?!" Mio asked.

As they continue to argue, Maria smiles as tears form on the edges of her eyes being happy that they needed her.

"Whose side are you on?!" Mio and Yuki asked Maria in the same time.

"Oh, uh…" Maria said as she wipes the tears away. "W-Well, you see…"

Maria then turns to Basara.

"Umm, Basara-san?" Maria said getting his attention as he turns to her.

"Hmmm?" Basara hummed.

Then suddenly Maria jumps onto and placed her arms around his neck as she kissed him, much to Mio's, Yuki's, and Kivat's surprised when they saw that.

Basara then falls to the floor as Maria still continues to kiss him, and Basara could swore that he could feel her tongue in his mouth playing around with his own.

After she was down Maria let's go of Basara's lips as she looks back at Mio and Yuki as she licks her lips.

"I refuse to take either side. Basara-san is my onii-chan!" Maria told them.

"Well I guess I shouldn't be surprised by this…" Kivat sighs as he rubs his head before he saw that Mio's and Yuki's faces are twisting in anger. "But I think she might have added more fuel to the fire."

"Maria!" Mio and Yuki shouted in anger.

Their shouts had reach the outside of their house. By the door is the new name plate for their household, having the names of Jin, Basara, Mio, Maria, and Yuki in the order of their last names standing above one another, and Kivat's name was also on the plate.

(Next day)

(Cue: Still sis)

In the night of the full moon, Basara, Alex, along with their friends were saying their goodbyes to Zest and Shella as they escorts from the moderate demon faction had come to take them back to the demon realm.

Basara, Alex, and their friends smile at them knowing that they'll see again in the future before they leave.

Then the day after, Basara along with Kivat, Mio, Maria, and Yuki were now standing outside of their house to take another family photo, and Alex wanted to take a picture of them as well before he and his friends head to the next world.

"Okay ready?" Basara asked he sets the timer of their own camera and while Alex readies his camera and they nodded. "Alright, here we go."

Basara starts the timer and runs beside his family, the camera and Alex soon took their picture.

After that was done, Mio and the others decided to head back inside to get dinner ready, while Alex and Basara were still outside to say goodbye to each other.

"Thanks again, for letting me take a picture with you guys." Alex said.

"It's no problem. So I guess you'll be leaving then." Basara said.

"Yeah afraid so," Alex nodded. "With Dark Decade still out there, I can't afford to stop now, not until he's defeated."

"I wish I could help you…" Basara muters as he looks down before Alex placed his hand on his shoulder which made Basara look back up at him.

"Hey, you shouldn't say that. I'll handle Dark Decade, and besides you still have your own world to protect along with your family, don't ever forget that." Alex assured him, and Basara smiles as he nodded.

"Yeah you're right." Basara said before he reach his hand out to him. "Then I wish you the best of luck in your journey."

Alex smirks before he grabs onto Basara's hand as they did a handshake.

"Thanks. And I wish you the best as well." Alex told him.

(End of song)

After saying his goodbyes to Alex, Basara had returned inside of the house and was sitting on the couch of the living room while the girls were cooking dinner in the kitchen.

Basara was looking at the family picture they had taken in his phone and he soon smiles before he sends it to Jin.

(Meanwhile)

In the demon realm and inside of the demon lord's palace, the current demon lord Leohart was walking in the hallway to his throne room, walking with Leohart is his supporter and spy Balflear.

Leohart is a tall young man with tanned skin, long purple hair, with two horns on his head pointed upwards, and has blue eyes. He is wearing bulky black armor with a purple cape. He also has large purple wings.

Balflear is a young man with pale white skin, has short pale hair with two horns pointed downwards, and has red eyes with two marks beside them, he was wearing glasses over his eyes, and wears black clothing with a black cape on his shoulders.

As they were walking Balflear is telling Leohart the news of Zolgia's status.

"Zolgia's psionic response has disappeared?" Leohart said in surprised.

"Yes my lord." Balflear told him.

"So you mean to say that he is dead?" Leohart asked.

"Possibly, but we have yet to confirmed it yet." Balflear told him. "We've just received this report a moment ago."

"Investigate it further and report back to me. At once." Leohart instructed him.

"As you wish." Balflear nodded before he disappears.

As he was walking Leohart is still in deep thought about this news of Zolgia's disappearance.

'According to Lars's reports, he seemed to be plotting something in secret, but...A man of his power has been defeated?' Leohart thought in wonder.

Leohart had soon arrive in front of the large door to his throne room, as he arrives two guards who were standing beside the door straighten themselves to greet the demon lord.

"Good work." Leohart told them before the door open.

When Leohart walks inside the throne room, he soon saw that the guards inside were badly beaten on the floor with their broken weapons laying beside them.

"You're finally back home, huh?" Leohart looks back up and saw a man casually sitting on his throne. "I got tired of waiting."

The man on his throne was Jin who was smoking while looking at the picture Basara had sent him on his phone. Jin then looks at the Demon Lord.

"Oh? The current Demon Lord is awfully young, I see." Jin said.

"Jin Toujou…?" Leohart said as he recognizes the man in front of him.

"Wow, it's an honor that even the new Demon Lord recognizes my name and face." Jin said before he puts away his phone as he breathes in his cigarette, and exhale the smoke while throwing his cigarette to the floor and crashed it with his foot.

"Thanks for laying your hands on my kids." Jin said before he stands up with angry grin on his face. "I came here to repay you a bit for that."

Then one of Jin's eyes light up with a green aura.
