Kamen Rider Kabuto: The Flower of Rin-ne

Chapter 1: Welcome to Kamogawa, Kabuto

It was a nice and sunny day in the city of Kamogawa.

In a nice little restaurant called 'Be with Hiroshi', is the owner Hiroshi Nakaizumi wiping the bar area. He looks to be a middle age man with brown hair with a small beard on his chin, and grey eye's.

There are also two girls helping out with some cleaning, the girls are his niece's.

One is a 17 year old with brown hair and hazel eyes, and she was wearing an orange jersey. This is Madoka Kyouno.

The other girl is the same age as Madoka she has long black hair that tied in a ponytail with a white ribbon, and have cold blue eyes, and is also wearing the same jersey as Madoka. This is Hiyori Tendou.

"Thanks for helping out today, you two." Hiroshi said. "Sorry that you have to spend your weekend working."

"You're welcome, Hiroshi-ojisan." Hiyori said.

"Don't worry about I'm pretty use to helping out here." Madoka said.

"Good to hear it." Hiroshi said, then notices something that got his eye which made rubs his head and sighed. "Hiyori, can you wake up that brother of yours? He's supposed to be working not snoozing."

Hiyori and Madoka look and saw a man wearing apron a red T-shirt with a white short-sleeve outer shirt, with black pants, and red shoes, sleeping with his feet on the table, and a newspaper on his face.

"I'm sorry." Hiyori slightly bowed. "I'll get right to it."

Hiyori was to go towards but Madoka blocks her way with her arm.

"No Hiyori, you're too gentle with him. What he really needs is a rude awakening." Madoka stated before going towards Hiyori's brother.

Madoka was right behind him.

"Will you wake already?!" Madoka yelled, as she kicks the legs on the chair, making the sleeper wake up and grabbing nothing but thin air as he falls on the floor.

"Ow!" The man got back up, the newspaper got off his face, revealing a young man whose look to be around 18 with midnight black spiky hair, and having cold blue eyes. This was Souji Tendou.

"What was that for Mado-chi?" Souji said looking at Madoka.

"I told you to stop calling me that Souji-nii! It's Madoka Kyouno!" Madoka exclaimed. "When you said you'll be helping out then you shouldn't be lounging around!"

"It's not my fault Hiroshi-ojisan is having a lousy business today." Souji rubs the back of his while getting back up. "I mean look."

Souji pointed inside the restaurant, and there are no customers.

"I guess that's true…but still though you shouldn't be using a table as a leg stand!" Madoka stated.

"Madoka right, Onii-chan." Hiyori soon joins in.

"Alright I'm sorry." Souji said before pointing his finger in the air. "Because Obaa-chan said this… Men who do not work don't get to eat."

"Exactly." Hiyori nodded, while Madoka nervously chuckle.

The door opens they look and saw a red rhinoceros beetle robot flying in with some bags of groceries on its horn.

"I'm back, here are the groceries!" The beetle said. "I'm not late am I?"

Hiyori walks towards the beetle and grabs the bags.

"Just in time Kabuto." Hiyori told the beetle robot named Kabuto.

This was Kabuto Zecter he is a good friend of the Tendou siblings ever since he was mysteriously delivered to them a few years ago along with technological belt, and a motorcycle. He didn't remember where he come from, since he didn't have anywhere to go, the Tendou siblings welcome him with opens arms, and have been a good friend with them and Madoka when they were kids, especially Souji.

"Here you go, onii-chan." Hiyori hand the bag to Souji. He checks its and it has everything he needs.

"Alright with these I can make my signature ramen." Souji said, making the girls happy.

"Alright! It's been since I had some." Madoka cheered. Souji chuckled.

"Well then I'll get right to it, Mado-chi." Souji said before walking towards the kitchen.

"I thought I told to stop that!" Madoka snapped. "I'm 17 now, and I'm in high school! Will you stop with that nickname already?!"

"No way." Souji flick his finger on Madoka's forehead. "Mado-chi will always be Mado-chi to me." He then continued towards the kitchen.

"Man why won't Souji-nii just stop with that nickname already?" Madoka sighed.

"I think it's because he finds you fan to tease." Hiyori chuckled.

"I have to agree." Kabuto nodded.

Unknown to them a teenage girl was watching them, behind a lamppost.

She had sky blue hair that is tied up and has a flower accessory on her left and have violet eyes, and is wearing strange looking uniform with blue sleeves the bottom part blue and white knee socks and blue boats.

She continued watching them as they were enjoying, the ramen Souji made for them, before leaving the area.


(Play Next Level by YU-KI)

(Instrumental) As the song begins the screen is covered by insect wings which soon falls apart revealing Kamen Rider Kabuto in Masked Form. The next shows Kabuto in Rider Form arrives being by Worms. He gets ready for battle as the next scene shows him riding on the Kabuto Extender.

(Kimi ga negau koto nara. Subete genjitsu ni naru darou. Erabareshi mono naraba.) Kabuto continues drive in a wide open area in which he is soon replaced by Souji, Hiyori, Madoka, Lan, and Muginami walking in different paths. The next is a meteor crashing into a city.

(Bousou wo hajimeteru.) The next scene shows how many Worms can disguise as normal people. The scene soon shows lights in the sky by a tower.

(Sekai wo moto ni modosu ni wa mahout. Jikan ga nai.) Scene shows Souji on his bike, getting off, and walking away. Meanwhile a ZECT van was going to a Worm attack scene.

(Moving Fast. Kokoro mo. Tokei hashirase.) Hiyori looks at her family photo. A child Madoka was looking at the ocean. Lan was working at Hiroshi's restaurant but was clumsy carrying the dishes. And a child Muginami was feeding a young weak Villagulio.

(Ashita no sono saki e) Souji was standing back-to-back with Kabuto Masked Form. Next, a child Souji and Hiyori was crying at their parent's funeral.

(Kimi no tonan tatakau tabi. Umarekawaru. Nani mieru. Speed koeteku motion.) Kabuto uses Cast Off and transform into his Rider Form. He shows off his Clock Up as he ran past the frozen explosions.

(Ittai jibun negai. Dare no tsuyosa. Shinjirareru.) Hiyori cried as green slime dropped from the ceiling.

(Kousoku no vision minogasu-na. Tsutie koreru nara.) Kabuto starts fighting in Clock Up before the screen is covered by insect wings and soon the logo.


(Tendou Household)

"Come on, Onii-chan if you don't hurry I'll be late!" Hiyori called out to her brother. She is dressed in her school uniform.

"I'm coming, I'm coming." Souji said as he comes down the stairs putting on his shirt.

The Tendou siblings come to the garage of their house, inside is a modified Honda CBR1000RR, the front half was heavily protected like a shell having a red beetle horn, it was red while the back half was silver this is the Kabuto Extender. It was delivered to them with Kabuto Zector.

The Tendou siblings got on the bike, with Souji in front for him to drive, with Hiyori behind as the passenger. They put on helmets, and the garage door soon opens for them, Souji drives the bike out, onto the street heading to another direction.


The Tendou siblings were now at the beach front, half way there to Hiyori's school, until they see a familiar person familiar person running down the beach, and taking off her clothes, which had a school swimsuit underneath.

They stop and saw it was Madoka, now swimming in the water, and going to save a girl who was drowning.

"There she goes again." Souji said; because he and her sister know this isn't the first time that this happen.

"Well who she is all the time." Hiyori said before getting off the bike. "You can wait for here for her, I'll go rest of the way."

"Okay, be careful though." Souji told her.

"I know, I don't need you to tell me that." Hiyori said before running the rest of the way to school.

Souji soon got off the bike too, and walks to the beach. Madoka pulled the girl out the water, the girl was on unconscious but was still breathing, Madoka.

"There, you go safe and sound." Madoka comfort her before Souji through a towel on her head.

"Good thing I brought I towel with me." Souji said.

"Oh, morning Souji-nii." Madoka greeted.

"You too." Souji greeted back. "I called the fire department, they'll be here soon."

"That's good, now then…" Madoka looks around the beach. "Where are my clothes?!"

"Probably been blown off with the wind." Souji stated. They soon see the fire fighters running down the beach to them, and checks on the girl.

The fire fighters, soon put the girl on a gurney, and put her in their vehicles.

"You did a good thing saving this girl, Madoka."

"It was no problem really." Madoka said as she was rubbing the back of her head. "Will she be alright?"

"Yes don't worry; she'll be in good hands. And when she wakes up we'll tell her how you saved her."

They soon got in their vehicle, and leave the area.

"Well then how about I bring you the rest of the way to school, Mado-chi." Souji said before getting back on his bike.

"Oh no, you don't have to." Madoka told him before catching a helmet.

"Hey, it's beats running the rest of the way. You don't want to be late do you?" Souji asked.

"Okay, thanks." Madoka said before putting on the helmet and gets on the bike.

"Hang on tight." Souji told her before turning the handles, and drives the rest of the way to school.

Unknown to them is that the girl that was watching them yesterday was watching, wearing the same uniform as Madoka.


(At Kamogawa girl's high school)

Standing behind the school gate is one of the female teachers with a shinai in hand.

She soon hears an engine sound, and see's Souji and Madoka stopping in front of the gate.

"Made it just in time!" Madoka said before taking off her helmet, and gets off the bike, and saw her teacher, and slightly bows. "Oh, hello Iwabuchi-sensei."

"Care to explain?" Iwabuchi-sensei asked.

"Believe it or not, I ran into a drowning girl…" Madoka started before Iwabuchi-sensei pokes her with her shinai.

"I'm asking about your uniform!" Iwabuchi-sensei told her. Madoka backs off, covering her chest.

"Well, my clothes were all gone by the time I got back to the beach!" Madoka explains before remembering something as she goes through her school bag. "But don't worry sensei."

Madoka soon begins to pull something out.

"I have my usual…" Madoka pulls out her jersey. "Jersey! Ta-da!"

Iwabuchi-sensei tightens the grip on her shinai.

"Then put it on, damn it!" Iwabuchi-sensei smacks her shinai near Madoka's feet.

"Hai! Bye Souji-nii!" Madoka said before heading to her school.

"Kyouno." Iwabuchi-sensei got her attention.

"Yes." Madoka turns around.

"The fire department called earlier. That girl you rescued regained consciousness." Iwabuchi-sensei told her, which made Madoka smiles happily.

"Prefect!" Madoka drew a circle with her finger in the air, and heads back to her school.

"Madoka, sure is a one of a kind girl." Souji said. Iwabuchi-sensei turns towards him.

"Shouldn't you be heading back, Tendou-san?" She asked. "If you don't I may have to report you to the police."

"Okay, I got it." Souji turns his bike to the other way. "And you shouldn't joke around like that. Some people may think the wrong way about me."

"Sorry couldn't help it Souji-kun." Iwabuchi-sensei chuckled. "Just head back to the restaurant you don't want to keep customers waiting do you."

"Don't worry I'm not gonna." Souji said before pointing his finger in the sky. "Because Obaa-chan said this…You should always appear to work on time."

"Just get going!" She told him.

"Alright, see ya." Souji said before driving down the streets, leaving the area.


(In the city)

In the middle of the city, is a tall building which was named ZECT H.Q, ZECT is organization that was form, after a meteor rite crash lands in the middle of the city.

The destruction was devastating, that over half of the city was destroyed, and the casualties were great in number, ZECT was founded with its first duty is rebuild the city, and then on ZECT focus on funding on research on science and technology.

But that wasn't the worst thing from the meteor, and ZECT is tasked to deal with it.


(In a dark lab, inside ZECT HQ)

A middle aged woman with violet long hair that reaches her back, and has matching eyes that were kind of lazy, she was wearing a lab coat with a violet sweeter, and a black skirt, and brown shoes with black stockings.

She was staring at a monitor of a holographic computer with keyboard.

"Are you going to issue the protocol now? Professor Haruka." A figure asked from behind.

"If I do that, they'll no longer be under my control." Haruka said.

"But isn't activating the protocol what you want? And didn't you choice the best candidates for the Rider System?"

"True and I did…but once I do this, there is no going back." Haruka said as she looked at her monitor and read some reports and videos of ZECT's most recent activity. "There's bound to be a turn when things get to out of hand, but I shouldn't let these kids got involve too soon…I'll activate the protocol when things, get too out of hand."

"And when it does…who do you think will appear first?"

Haruka turned to the figure with a smile.

"Hard to say, I'm not a fortune teller you know." Haruka then continued typing and drawing insects.


(Back at Kamogawa girl's high school)

Madoka and Hiyori were helping other clubs with their activities and problems. Madoka and Hiyori were helping because they were members of the jersey club…actually the only members of the jersey club because it's only the two of them.

After helping some clubs they were talking out the garbage's if the entire school.

"This should be the last of it." Madoka said putting where the garbage gets pick up.

"But we still have things to do." Hiyori wipes her forehead with her sleeve.

"You shouldn't be like that Hiyori! After all we're the jersey club!" Madoka told her.

The only reason Hiyori join the club because she wanted to help Madoka out. It's been two years since she joins the club but still and so far they were helping people in their school and in the city. She's happy to help other people so she still stays.

"Okay, next we have to help with the film club with their movie." Madoka said.

"I know, I know, you don't have to remind me, president." Hiyori said before leaving.

"Hiyori I told not to call me that." Madoka said before following her. "Besides it's the only the two of us so far."

Madoka soon stops when she saw something in the bushes nearby. Then she saw movement, being curious she checks it out. She puts her hand in the bushes, searching around a little, until she felt something really odd, before feeling a jolt of pain.

"Ow!" Madoka pulled her hand out, wondering what was that.

"Madoka!" She looks and saw Hiyori waved at her. "Come on! We still have things to do, and with little time too!"

"Okay, I'm coming!" Madoka said before heading towards Hiyori.

When they were both gone, a hand pop out of the bushes, and a girl crawl out of it and stands up, she then looks at her hands and touches her face, before smiles sinisterly, and leaves the area.


(Later)

After being done on their last task, Hiyori and Madoka were now heading towards the shower rooms.

"Man doing all those tasks, sure builds up a sweat." Hiyori said.

"You shouldn't be like that. After all we still some things to do in town." Madoka told her.

"I know." Hiyori said.

"Kyouno Madoka-san." They stop and look, and saw the sky blue hair girl wearing their school's uniform.

"Do you know her?" Hiyori whispered to Madoka's ear.

"No I hadn't met her before." Madoka shook her head before looking back at the girl. "I'm sorry do I know you?"

The blue hair girl drops her skirt, making Madoka and Hiyori flinched.

"Hey, you shouldn't do that in public!" Hiyori told her. The blue girl soon took off the shirt revealing her other uniform underneath.

Madoka and Hiyori only gazed at her, before she folded and handed the uniform to Madoka.

As they were looking at each other, some students come walking by.

"What's with that girl?"

"Did the Jersey club finally recruit someone?"

"No way."

"She's brave."

"That takes a lot of courage."

Madoka hadn't notice what they said before looking at the uniform in her hands, and saw that it was her uniform.

"Thank you…" Madoka and Hiyori were about look back at the blue hair girl, but she was gone like she vanishes into thin air. They look around, but didn't fine her.


(In the shower room)

Madoka and Hiyori were now taking a shower, and were talking about that girl.

"Man what a strange girl." Hiyori said. "First she wore your uniform, when you took it off to save a kid, and then she returns it, and vanish like thin air. Don't you think that's weird?"

"Yeah, it sure was." Madoka said. "I wonder how she knows who I am."

"Maybe its best that we shouldn't dig too much into it." Hiyori stated.

"Okay." Madoka agreed.

Unknown to them is that the girl from the bushes comes inside quietly, she was there for Madoka, but saw that she was not alone and quietly clicks her tongue. She wanted to do this quietly without witnesses and without causing a scene, so decided on waiting for the right time, but saw Madoka's jersey, and have an idea.


After cleaning themselves off, Hiyori and Madoka were putting on their uniforms, Madoka then saw something missing.

"What the where's my jersey?" Madoka wonders as she was searching for it.

"Did you misplace it somewhere?" Hiyori asked.

"No I was so sure that I left it right here." Madoka shook her head.

The door slams opened, it was Iwabuchi-sensei who was really looking really angry.

"Kyouno!" Iwabuchi-sensei pulls Madoka's ear and begin dragging her. "You're coming with me!"

"Itai! Sensei what are you doing?" Madoka asked.

"Hey wait up!" Hiyori soon followed.


(Outside of the school)

"Mind explaining this?!" Iwabuchi-sensei demanded when she points at graffiti on the wall. Written with Madoka's name saying she did it.

"Now hold on I hadn't done this!" Madoka told her.

"But it's written in your hand writing," Iwabuchi-sensei pulled out a paper written with Madoka's hand writing. "The similarity is uncanny."

"Well I admit it's true." Madoka said as she looks between the two. "But still I hadn't done this."

"She's right Sensei." Hiyori said. "She was with me in the showers, she couldn't have done this."

"Madoka/Kyouno!" They look and saw a mop of students running towards them, looking a little angry.

"W-What's wrong?!" Madoka asked looking a little scared.

"Don't innocent with us! Look at what you did to my best camera!" She pulled out a broken camera in pieces. "I saw you smash into the ground!"

"And you filled the pool with water dye! Look at me!" She showed her blue color skin.

"And you wrote on our Kendo equipment!" She pulled out her Kendo helmet, which was written with Madoka's name.

"But I didn't do those things." Madoka told them.

"Don't lie to us! We saw you do it, it was defiantly you!" They all declared.

"Well…" Madoka tried to think before getting idea on who did those things. "Maybe it's someone impersonating me?"

"Yeah right like we believe that!" They all exclaimed. Hiyori got in front of Madoka shielding her.

"Now hold on! Madoka didn't do all those things! She couldn't because she was taking a shower in the shower room, I know because I was there!" Hiyori told them. "And maybe you forget that Madoka isn't the kind of person to do all those things! You all should know that!"

The mob soon calms down, thinking that Hiyori is right about that.

"Are you absolutely sure, Tendou?" Iwabuchi-sensei asked.

"I'm sure!" Hiyori told her. Iwabuchi-sensei look at her eyes seeing those weren't the eyes of a liar; she soon turned towards the mob.

"Alright, if what Tendou is saying is true, then we shouldn't point fingers, without proper evidence. Luckily tomorrows the weekend, so until a proper investigation is done all we have to do is to wait." Iwabuchi-sensei told them. "Now dismissed."

Most of the mob left the area, while some stay, to apologize to Madoka.

"I'm sorry, Madoka." One of them bowed her head.

"I apologize as well."

"Same for me."

"It's alright, really." Madoka assured them.

"But still though I was so sure that was you. I didn't get a good look at the face, but the voice sounded completely the same."

"Like I said it's an imposter doing it. And I won't rest until I find her." Madoka swore.

Unknown is that her imposter wearing her jersey was watching from the shadows, with a smile on her face, seeing that her plan is working, and soon leaves the area.


(Tendou's house)

"Huh? Mado-chi is causing some trouble at school?" Souji said as and Hiyori were having dinner, while Hiyori was explaining what happen in school.

"Yes it was strange. Everyone was accusing Madoka causing, and that she saw her pulling pranks, and doing some bad stuff, and painting on the wall." Hiyori explained. "But she would never do that."

"Yeah I can believe that, she's not kind of person to do things like that." Souji said.

"But it's certainly strange though." Kabuto Zector said. "You don't think it's someone who has grudged against her do you?"

"Doesn't seem likely, but it should be possible. I think we should hear this from Mado-chi and see what she has to say." Souji said.

"Agreed." Hiyori nodded.


(Next day, at Hiroshi's restaurant)

Hiroshi was cleaning on the counter of his restaurant.

"Oji-san, you in here?" Souji and Hiyori come in the restaurant.

"Oh, Souji, Hiyori, what are you here for?" Hiroshi asked.

"We're here to talk to Madoka. Is she in her room?" Hiyori asked.

"Sorry no, she went out a while ago, saying something about clearing her name." Hiroshi said.

"I see thank you. If she comes back tell her we need to talk to her." Souji said.

"Will do." Hiroshi said before Souji exit the restaurant.

"Where are you Mado-chi?" Souji mutters.


(With Madoka)

Madoka was hiding behind a corner wearing a trench coat, a cough mask, and sunglasses, to hide her identity.

"I need to find my imposter before she does more things to framed me." Madoka vowed.

She walks around town to some places she usually helps around at, but that when she heard a scream nearby. She headed there and saw the fish market shop owner mended a bump on his head.

"Mr. Hito- I mean sir, are you okay." Madoka checks on the owner.

"I'm fine…" He said.

"What happen here?" Madoka asked.

"It was a girl named Madoka…she it was her day to come help me out…but out of nowhere she just whacks me on head and stool some of my fish."

Madoka thought about he was right today she was supposed to help him out in the store, but was too busy looking for her imposter that she forget. But what made her even more confuse about the imposter is that did she know about helping him out today, it didn't make sense only Madoka knows.

"Um mister, where did she go?" Madoka asked. The owner pointed at a direction.

"She headed that. I think that leads to the abandon factory."

"Okay got it." Madoka nodded before running to that direction.

Nearby was the Kabuto Zecter he was coming out of a grocery store with begs on his horn and saw and recognized Madoka.

"Madoka? Where's is she going?" Kabuto Zecter said before decided using his communication feature to call Souji. "Hey Souji, I saw Madoka earlier. She was heading to the abandon factory. Yeah I meet you their too, I need to drop some grocery's off first."

The call ended and Kabuto fly to drop the location to drop the groceries.


(At ZECT HQ)

Haruka was riding an elevator help up to the floor where her lab is, and soon walks out when it reaches her floor and it doors opened.

She sees several people in lab coats and security uniforms talking to each other and doing various.

Soon a male in a lob coat notice her and walked up to her.

"Oh! Professor Haruka, I was looking for you!" The male said, making Haruka sighed before walking to her lab, the male lab coat followed.

"You know I'm always in my lab, Dr. Hotou." Haruka said. "Oh, and how are you son and daughter, doing?"

"First of all, they're doing well. Second, I was just to let you know that the boards of executives are calling for you. They're demanding answers." Haruka sighed.

"Any particular reason?" Haruka asked, though she had a good idea of what this is all about.

"Your little project since you joined; the Rider Project."

Haruka sighed again at that and just looked annoyed.

"Hard for them to argue something that's about 10 years old." Haruka said before making a turn.

"Exactly, you ran this thing for so long behind the board's back."

"Well, whatever reason they want to say about it, there's nothing that can be done. All Zecters have found their prefect partners, and fully used them to max capabilities." Haruka pointed out as she reached her password protection lab door, and scanned her card on the lock type in the password.

"That's actually an issue that I have with you myself."

Haruka as the door opened and then looked at the doctor.

"Is that so?"

"Yes, while the company sees you as wasting potential resources, giving the devices to people outside this organization, and them being teenagers…I see you as sadistic maniac." explained, making Haruka twitch her eyebrows as she didn't expect the good doctor to be so blunt with insults. "You're giving children not only untested devices but you're also dragging them into a war that is not theirs."

Haruka soon faced forward.

"You don't see the situation as well as I do, Dr. Hotou but everything that I'm doing, I'm doing for a reason." Haruka said calmly.

"But-!"

Haruka turned back to looked at Dr. Hotou in the face.

"Shin, with all due respect, you're a medical doctor and a biologist, while I'm a technical/engineering one. Come to me when you have proof that someone has been hurt because of me. Now then, I have some work to do so now-."

ALRAM!

Haruka looks and saw her computers flashing red, Haruka's eyes turned serious; she knows what this is for.

"Sorry Doctor, looks like duty calls." Haruka walks inside and closed the door, and heads towards her computers. "Now then are could the little Worm be hiding."


(At the abandon factory)

Madoka was inside of the factory without her disguised and was now wearing her orange jersey, looking for her imposter.

"Where are you imposter?! Show yourself!" Madoka yelled and wants to give her a piece of her mind.

Madoka soon hear loud eating and check to see a girl sitting wearing an orange jersey and have the same color and length hair gulping down on some raw fish.

Madoka concluded that is her imposter.

"There you are, you must my imposter!" Madoka said before walking towards her. "Who are you why are you making people believe I did those things, just who are?!"

The imposter soon stopped eating a whip her mouth with her sleeve got up on her feet.

"Do I really need to answer that?" The imposter said, surprisingly she sounded exactly like Madoka. "It's because…"

The imposter slowly turned around…And Madoka's eyes widen, it was like looking at a mirror to her.

"I'm you." The imposter shows her face, which looks exactly the same as Madoka's.


(Back with Haruka)

Haruka was typing on her keyboard and her screens shows a red dot on a map of an abandon factory, the same one Madoka and her clone happens to be.

Haruka soon found the old camera systems of the factory still works, and puts them on her screen, seeing Madoka and her clone.

"This isn't good, there's no ZECT Troopers near that area, and even if we did sent them, they just get cream like before…hmm…" Haruka was trying to think of something, and decides on using the tracking systems on the Rider equipment. She saw only one active to be closed by and it was Kabuto Zector, and the belt being worn by Souji since he viewed it as a good luck charm.

"Souji Tendou, hmm…what are the odds?" Haruka said because she knows the boy quite well.

"Guess I have no choice now." Haruka said before typing on her keyboard for a few minutes before a holographic prompt showed up on her screen. It said, "Activate Rider Protocol? Yes or No?"

Haruka was about to pressed the 'Yes' but stop, feeling a little worried if she's willing to do this, before remembering what a friend of hers once said to her.

"It shouldn't matter to us what becomes of the future. But to entrust it to future generations for those to come."

Haruka soon smirks.

"I guess I have no choice but to trust those future generations." Haruka pressed the 'Yes' on the screen. The screen went black before displaying several slats with the words, "RIDERS ACTIVATED" on the screen.

Haruka smiled as she knew that she began something great.


(With Kabuto)

"Here you go ma'am." Kabuto Zector handed the grocery's to an elder woman.

"Why thank you. I can't believe I forget these even though I just bought them. I swore my memory is really going bad. I'm sorry you have to spend your time getting these." She said.

"It no trouble really." Kabuto Zector said. "If you want I can escort you home."

"No, I'll find my house isn't too far from here I can make. Have nice day." She said before leaving.

"You too." Kabuto said. "Alright now to go to that factory."

Kabuto was about fly off to their before he froze and his eye's blinked on and off for a few seconds. He soon went back to normal as then he screamed at the top of his mechanical lungs.

"I REMEMBER EVERYTHING!" Kabuto then hurries to the factory wanting to tell Souji everything before they find Madoka.


(Back with the two Madoka's)

"Wh-What the…why do you look like me?" Madoka asked.

"Do I need to repeat myself? I'm you." The other Madoka said.

"But you can't be me! I'm me! Wait if you're me then what does that make me…? I don't get it anymore!" Madoka throw her arms on her head before pointing at the other Madoka. "Anyway that still doesn't change the fact your imposter imposing as me!"

The other Madoka soon started laughing.

"Oh that's rich!" She said. "And what makes you think I'm the imposter, I know you better then you know yourself."

"You're lying! There's no way you-!" Madoka exclaimed.

"Madoka Kyouno," The other Madoka started making Madoka stops. "Age 17, born August 23, blood type O, weight you rather not say. You live with your Uncle Hiroshi in his restaurant, one of the only two members of the jersey club, and when you were in elementary your mother died and you were in depression. And there's one thing you want to forget but couldn't…" This made Madoka's eyes a little more widen making her remember a certain memory. "There was kid in your class drowning in ocean but you were so scared that you couldn't do anything. My god you were so pathetic! Hahahahaha!"

Madoka lowered her arm, and closed her eyes.

"You're right." Madoka said. The other Madoka stopped her laughing.

"You're right it I wanted to help him but I was scared I couldn't move, but that was also the day I saw Yoko onee-chan save him and see do a lot more things to help people, that's when I decided being like her. So no matter what you say that is my precious memory I won't forgive you for speaking ill about it!" Madoka said with strong resolve look on her face.

The other Madoka rubs her head.

"Guess I should have figure that wouldn't be enough to make you fall in depression again, making you more willing to die. But oh well, guess I'll have to do it while there's no one around." The other Madoka soon transformed into a green humanoid chrysalis-like creature with orange claws. This is the Salis Worm.

"What the-!" Madoka let out in surprised before the Salis Worm runs and grabs on the neck and lifts her up. Madoka tries to free herself but no anvil.

The Salis Worm was about to break her neck, but the Tendou siblings on the Kabuto Extender broke through the wall slams into the Worm which made it let go of Madoka and sends it flying a good feet on the ground.

Souji and Hiyori took off their helmets and got off to check on Madoka.

"Madoka?!" Hiyori said

"Are you alright Mado-chi?" Souji asked.

"I'm fine." Madoka cough.

The Salis Worm got back up and begins to runs towards them going to attack. Souji shields Madoka and Hiyori with his back.

"Oh no, you don't!" Kabuto Zector said before slashing it a few times with his horn, making it groan it pain as it was force to the ground again.

The mechanical insect then flew towards Souji who was surprised to see him.

"Kabuto, thanks for the save." Souji said.

"Don't worry about. But listen! I finally remembered what I was made for." Kabuto said before noticing the Salis Worm getting back up looking at him, Souji, Hiyori and Madoka. This was the perfect time to show Souji. "Actually I think it's better to show you! You still wearing that belt? Show me, it could help in this fight."

Souji showed him and it was a silver technical belt with a slot as the buckle.

"Okay, so how will it help?" Souji asked.

"No time to explain but…Henshin!" Kabuto said, confusing Souji.

"Henshin?"

Kabuto flew into the slot, making a perfect fit before…

"HENSHIN!"

Soon as a response, hexagons formed around Souji's being before they covered him completely and transformed Souji into something new. He was clad in a black bodysuit with silver, bulky armor that was square shaped on the chest that has red on the upper part. On his shoulder is a red beetle design with the word 'ZECT' over it. He has large, round shoulder pads and large silver gauntlets with cylinder patterns on the arms. There were silver plates on the legs from thighs, knee pads, shins, three thin cylindrical metals on the ankles, and some metal on the feet. His helmet is silver with horns, blue opaque visor, and two black tupes that seem to be holding something back.

This was Kamen Rider Kabuto Masked Form.

The Worm and the girls looked surprised.

"Woah…" Madoka remarked as she didn't expect this when working with the Tendou siblings.

"Onii-chan and Kabuto Zecter combined…" Hiyori said while pinching herself a little to make sure she wasn't dreaming.

Kabuto looked at himself as he didn't expect his friend to combine with his belt to form a hi-tech suit.

"W-What just happen?" Kabuto asked, looking at his armored hands.

"This is…Kamen Rider Kabuto!" Kabuto Zector said within Kabuto's helmet. "With this armor, you should be able to fight on par with that Worm!"

Kabuto Zector then displayed basic information about the suit's functions as well as any basic aspect about it, including the weapon holster. Kabuto immediately went for it and pulled out what seemed to be a gun.

Kabuto aimed it at the Salis Worm and fired at it, making groan in some.

The Salis Worm seemed annoyed before running and slashes Kabuto with its claws but his armor withstood it.

"Not bad." Kabuto remarked as he was unharmed before punching the Worm and holds the Worm by the arm and shooting multiple times in the face.

In his HUD, Souji saw the weapons alternate forms before he flips it to hold it on the barrel like an axe. Kabuto then slashed the Worm on the face before slashing the rest of its body.

It soon flew and rolled on the ground with its body smoking and the creature groaning in pain. Madoka and Mirai was awed by Kabuto, to say the least.

"Sugoi…" Hiyori let out as she was glad that their grandmother's self-defense lessons were really starting to pay off.

"So cool…" Madoka remarked.

Kabuto started approaching the Worm to finish it off. The three then notice something going on with the Worm as it stood up and started to glow red.

Kabuto Zector recognized this.

"Shit, it's starting to molt!" Kabuto Zector said while Kabuto himself was a little confused because he never saw a Worm molt before. When it was done molting, it looked different.

It had black and red armored appearance. It has spider legs on its shoulders and some on the head, its hands were black and it had claws on them. On its wrist were spikes that resembles a stingers and on the back of the legs, it had spiked up fins. This is the Aracnea Worm Rubor, or Rubor Worm for short.

"Kabuto, what happens if it's molted?" Kabuto asked because due to Kabuto Zector's remark.

"Let's just say things are going to be real fast." Kabuto Zector said.

"Huh?"

Just then the Rubor Worm moved fast as a red and black blur as it used its newfound super speed to give Kabuto a series of slashes, sparking his armor multiple times before he was forced to the ground.

"Damn it!" Kabuto caused as he barely got up. "Kabuto, I could use some insight here."

"Quick flicher my horn!" Kabuto Zector said and Kabuto did, soon his armor had electricity surrounding it and parts of his armor moved and it looked like it was about to pop off. "Now say, 'Cast Off' before pulling my horn completely."

Kabuto nodded.

"Cast Off!" Kabuto said as he pulled the horn completely.

"CAST OFF!"

The armor pieces then flew off aiming towards his foe, who was hit by one of the pieces.

Kabuto had drastically changed from the previous form due to his heavy armor now gone. His upper body was sleeker while his legs remained the same. His forearms and upper arms were now covered in silver plates that connected to silver wrist bands. On his hands are black guards trimmed in silver and the shoulder guards were mostly silver with a red design on top. His chest armor is now red designed after a beetle's abdomen with silver torso sides. His helmet had gone through the most changes as it was nearly red with a silver bottom covered in black trims. A horn attached to his chin rose up to make the opaque visor into blue eyes, while attaching to his forehead as a rhinoceros beetle horn.

"CHANGE BEETLE!"

"Souji this is Kabuto Rider Form." Kabuto Zector said as Kabuto moved a little bit and found it was a whole lot easier to moved, and looked on his arms.

"Okay, it's a little better to move now. And I have to say I like the design." Kabuto then noticed the Rubor Worm getting up and using his speed again.

"Souji, quickly press the button on the side of the belt." Kabuto Zector instructed and Kabuto did so.

"CLOCK UP!"

(In Clock Up Dimension)

Kabuto sees the Worm charging at him in normal speed. Kabuto managed to counter the attack by blocking the creature and kicking him away. He soon noticed the girls frozen like statues.

"What the?" Kabuto let out.

"It may look frozen but it's not." Kabuto Zector said. "While in Clock Up, your perception and speed are heightened up to the point where time seems slow around you but in reality, you're moving super-fast."

"Okay, I see now." Kabuto said as his HUD was showing him a kunai mode for his weapon. He pulled out the hanlde his hand axe which is a kunai before running the Worm and slashes through on its chest and slashes him from its back.

The Rubor Worm turned around to punch Kabuto but he blocks it with his other arm and slashes the Worm on its chest and kicks it away.

The Rubor Worm then just fried webs from its mouth at Kabuto but he slashes it with his kunai before meeting up with the Worm. He then slashes at the Worm, making some sparks.

The Rubor Worm triech whacking Kabuto but he was able to see its every move as he blocks, and dodges every single attack coming and after each one, he would get a few good punches and kicks in.

Kabuto then punched the Rubor Worm down to the ground before…

"CLOCK OVER!"


(In standard dimension)

Hiyori and Madoka blinked as one second they see a red and black-red blurs clashing against each other and the next, they see Kabuto his back turned and standing over a defeated Rubor Worm. The Worm stands back up and charged at Kabuto.

Hiyori and Madoka noticed.

"Onii-chan!" Hiyori called and Kabuto noticed what was going on through a reflection of a window.

"Kabuto Zector." Kabuto said, not even asking as it was obvious that he needed put this creature down for good.

"You got it, here's what you need to know." Kabuto Zector said as he displayed information in the helmet's HUD yet again.

Kabuto then looked down on Kabuto Zector's buttons and started pressing them.

"1."

The Worm was getting closer.

"2."

"Souji-nii, do something!" Madoka yelled as the Rubor Worm was only inches away.

"3." Kabuto then closed Kabuto Zector and pulled its horn back into place.

"Rider…Kick." Kabuto then pulled the horn back.

"RIDER KICK!"

Energy from Kabuto Zector traveled to Kabuto's helmet. It went up the horn and back down to his right foot. When the Worm was at him, Kabuto quickly countered with a spin kick. His foot hit the Worm directly in the face and the Worm exploded.

Hiyori and Madoka got up before seeing Kabuto emerge from the explosion and reverted back to Souji and Kabuto Zector. The four met up and looked at where the monster was to see it was no more.


(Somewhere else)

A hooded person holding a purple rose was watching Kabuto's battle with Worm.

"So you finally awaken, Kabuto." He said before letting go of the rose to the ground. "And very soon we will meet."

He soon walks away leaving the area.


(At ZECT HQ)

Haruka smiles as the Kabuto armor proved fruitful and that its power even exceeded her expectations.

"I guess I wouldn't have expected anything less from your son, doctor Tendou." Haruka said before seeing something from Souji's profile saying that he works at a restaurant called 'Be with Hiroshi', and has a talent for cooking. She soon got up from her desk.

"Well, I was planning to eat out today for dinner anyway, so might as well." Haruka said as she shut her computers down and left her lab before any ZECT higher-ups came to scold her.


(With Souji and the others)

After the battle, Souji and the others went back to Hiroshi's restaurant. When they were there, they were still thinking about what happen today, sitting on a table outside.

"Man I wonder what's all that about." Hiyori wonders.

"You're telling me…" Madoka mutters, she was still weirder out by her imposter/clone having her not only her face but her memories as well.

"Well I think it's something we have to ask ZECT. I mean they did build you Kabuto." Souji said as he looked at Kabuto Zecter. Kabuto Zector had told them that he got his memories back, they were happy to hear that, Kabuto Zector soon explained them that he was a weapon built by ZECT, to fight the creatures known as Worms.

"Trust me; I was just as surprised as well." Kabuto Zecter as well as he remembered the literal internal shock he got when the Rider Protocol activated.

"But still what exactly are these Worms?" Madoka asked.

"And where exactly did these things come from?" Hiyori also wanted to know.

"Well it's going to be tough to explain-." Kabuto started.

"Which is why I should explain it to them." They look and saw Haruka standing behind them. "Good to meet you Mr. Tendou."

"Who are you?" Souji asked.

"My name is Haruka Tsumugi and we have much to talk about." Haruka said.
