Kamen Riders Shogun and Kaizoku: Turbo Awakening

Premonition/Prologue: Invisible Ties/The Verge of History

A/N I just want to say that in this story, there are a lot of things that are a lot similar to other Tokusatsu shows. That's because in this story, most of the things used are tributes or alludes to the many shows that have been shown. In other words, characters like Daigo will get items that are basically items that are used in shows like Samurai Sentai Shinkenger except there are some differences. I'll explain later. Also, this story is focusing on Robin, Daigo, Ryo, and a few other characters. I'm not going to guarantee that the other characters in the game will make more then a few appearances, but I will try my best to have them appear.

And one last thing, like my other stories, this one has no set schedule, but even then it will probably be worked on much less then X-Omega Unwound or Vivofighters. But even so, I hope you enjoy what I do put out.

Disclaimer: Kamen Rider and Fire Emblem are two different series that do not belong to me in any way. This is simply a crossover story that I'm doing for fun.

Vision:

Chrom and Turbo ran at their opponent. Chrom slashed at the man, swinging multiple times but missing before the man deflected it with a spell. Turbo moved his Turbo Sword to his other hand and pressed down on a button on his belt three times.

Arc-Turbo! Burst!

Turbo fired a ball of energy at the man, but missed as the man jumped over it and launched a ball of magic back at him.

Rolling out of the way, Turbo hit the button on his belt four times.

Arc-Turbo! Explosion!

Turbo fired a ray of energy at the man, who disappeared and reappeared near Chrom, firing a bolt of energy at the blue-haired man. As Chrom struggled to get up, the man prepared another ball of energy to shoot, firing it soon after.

Arc-Turbo! Dash!

Turbo super-sped in front of the attack, cutting at it with his Turbo Sword.

Turbo and Chrom watched the man cautiously.

"This is it! Our final battle!" Chrom told Turbo. "You're one of us, Robin, and no "destiny" can change that"

Turbo nodded and the two got ready.

"Here's how it's done!" Turbo shouted, pressing down on his belt once.

Arc-Turbo! Weapon!

The Turbo Sword glowed as the two charged.

"Gya ha ha! Fools! Struggle all you want!" the man shouted. "You cannot unwrite what is already written!"

Turbo slashed at the man, catching him across the chest before kicking him away. Chrom jumped in, slashing with his own weapon as well. Turbo pressed down on the button on his belt five times.

Arc-Turbo! Overload!

Turbo charged up energy and unleashed it towards the man, disorienting him temporarily.

"Now! Chrom!" Turbo shouted.

Chrom nodded and prepared an attack.

Turbo put his hand to the handle on his belt and pulled it out before pressing the button at the top, causing the handle to retract.

Casting! Arc-Turbo! Final Sequence!

Turbo got ready and ran at the man, taking out the Arc-Turbo Orb from his belt and placing it in his Turbo Sword.

Slashing! Arc-Turbo! Final Sequence!

The two slashed at the man, their attacks cutting through him with energy covering him and causing him pain.

He fell to the ground, energy coming off of him.

Chrom and Turbo regrouped, Chrom facing away from the man as he smiled in relief.

"This isn't over! Not yet!" However, the man sat up and fired an energy bolt at Chrom. Quickly, Turbo shoved Chrom out of the way, intercepting the attack for himself.

Turbo flew backwards, landing on the ground as Chrom ran to him.

"Are you alright? That's the end of him" Chrom helped Turbo up.

"You can rest easy now"

Suddenly, Turbo clutched his head in pain. "What's wrong? You okay?" Chrom asked, concerned for his friend. "Hang on! Gyah!"

Turbo stabbed Chrom with his Turbo Sword.

"This is not… your… fault. Promise me… you'll escape from this place… please… go…" Chrom fell to the ground.

Evil laughter filled Turbo's ears.

Several Years Earlier…

"Hurry up! At this rate the convention will be over!"

Ryo tapped his foot impatiently as he waited for his friend to finish what he was doing.

"I'm almost done, okay?! Just hang on!" Daigo shouted back.

Currently, Ryo was wearing a pirate costume while Daigo was wearing a samurai costume. Daigo was fixing up his belt. When he finished, he picked up a bag and prepared to leave.

"Okay, let's go. You got everything?" Daigo asked.

"Yeah. I have my outfit, my fake cutlass, my fake gun, my REAL gun-"

"Wait, back up, did you just say a REAL gun?!" Daigo interrupted.

"Yeah" Ryo pulled out a gun "what about it?"

"Jesus! Watch where you're pointing that thing!" Daigo ducked down.

"Oh relax! It's on safety! And besides, this is only for safety incase some guys try to jump us after the convention."

"You really are insane aren't you?" Daigo sighed.

"I'm not called the Mad Shot for nothing!" Ryo exclaimed.

"Ryo, no one calls you that" Daigo retorted.

"So I count as a no one?!" Ryo hissed.

"That is correct in SO many ways"

"Okay let's just go before I decide to use this thing!" Ryo hissed.

Daigo waved his hands in defeat and the two left.

Begin Theme: Story By: Camino

(Music) The Shogun Cores, Kaizoku Bullets, Turbo Orbs, and Core Gems are seen on the screen before they start glowing. The screen changes to a shot of Ryo and Daigo back to back, Ryo having on the Kaizoku Shot in his hand while Daigo has SamuraiMaru on his waist and the Shogun Brace on his wrist. They activate them in a side-by-side split-screen effect, the screen changing to the title: "Kamen Riders Shogun and Kaizoku: Turbo Awakening."

(Hikaru sora wo miage kakenukeru kumo oikakete ita) Daigo practices with his Shogun Saber alone in a room. SamuraiMaru says something through the Shogun Brace. He stops and sheaths his sword as he is replaced by Shogun.

(Nagareru toki no naka de todokanu omoi samayotteru) Ryo jumps over objects and ran through a battlefield, dodging every attack that came his way and blasting every person who attacked him in the head and also slashing with his Kaizoku Cutlass. He stopped when he rested the barrel of his Kaizoku Shot onto the side of someone's head and fired as he is replaced by Kaizoku.

(Kokoro ni daiteta ikite kita akashi) Robin and Marth are seen back to back, Robin having the Turbo Driver on his waist while Marth was looking at the Parallel Falchion.

(Maiagare inochi no honoo ima) Robin looked up to see Chrom, Ryo, and Daigo all standing in the distance, smiling at him while Lissa and Frederick were behind them, waving as well. Marth looked up to see several figures in the distance. The two ran from their position to the people on their respective sides.

(Kurikaesareru jidai ni) Daigo and Ryo stand next to each other as they shout: "Shogun/Kaizoku Henshin!"

(Ima tashika na shinjitsu wo) They activate their devices as their armor forms around them.

(Yuruganai taisetsu na kizuna) Shogun and Kaizoku stood in their places as they got into ready stances.

(Unmei no STORY (STORY)) Several more Riders were shown, one of the most noticeable being silver and violet with an elemental dragon theme.

(Tsunagareta kono sekai ni) The elemental dragon themed Rider aimed his weapon at the screen before slashing.

(Haruka naru yasashisa wo) The screen cracked from the slash and fell away, revealing a new image of Daigo looking down at his necklace.

(Kagiri nai yume to kibou ni) He looked back up and took a few steps forward, meeting up with Ryo on a cliff.

(Mou mayou koto wa nai hazu sa zutto) The two looked off the cliff, looking over the landscape before they held up their respective transformation devices.

(Mirai ni TAKE YOU) The two ran towards the cliff and jumped off, falling to the ground below.

(Music) The two fell to the ground as the view suddenly changed to that of Shogun and Kaizoku fighting off enemies all around them, Shogun using his Shogun Saber while Kaizoku used his Kaizoku Shot and Cutlass in conjunction. The final shot was that of Daigo, Ryo, Robin, Chrom, Lissa, and Frederick as they all stood together.

That Night…

Daigo and Ryo walked through the dark city, the two still clad in their convention uniforms.

"Man, that was CRAZY!" Ryo shouted in happiness.

"Well, I'm broke now. I spent all my money on gear and stuff." Daigo sighed. On his waist, there was now a red belt with a large silver buckle with a small object at the top right of it. There was a screen on the front of it, making it resemble a speedometer on a car. On his left wrist was a brace that came with the belt.

"I still can't believe you put that on in the middle of the convention."

"It was either that or have you or someone else steal it. Besides, the Drive Driver surprisingly fits with my cosplay."

"No. No it does not" Ryo said.

"Well what if I did this?" Daigo twisted the key on his belt and pulled out an orange toy car and activated it on the brace. "Henshin!"

DRIVE! TYPE: FRUITS!

"This is my stage now… and you're coming along for the ride!" Daigo pulled out his katana and shouted.

"You're lucky this is an empty street and no one was going to notice you" Ryo said.

"I'm turning into you, why do I care what I do in public?" Daigo said.

The two passed by an alleyway.

"Help me!" a voice came from the alleyway, causing the two to pause and walk back to the alley.

Inside the alley, there was a young woman being surrounded by three guys.

"Come on, we just want to show you a good time" one of the guys asked the woman.

"Please, just let me through!" she pleaded.

"Don't be so stuck up, just come with us, we'll be gentle" one of them smirked.

Daigo and Ryo watched.

"Ryo, give me your fake gun" Daigo said.

Ryo reached into his pocket and pulled out his fake gun, passing it to Daigo.

"Okay, come on, get your gun out." Daigo led Ryo into the alleyway, Ryo pulling out his gun.

The two walked into the alleyway. "That's enough! If you were even the smallest bit intelligent, then you would see she's saying no!" Daigo said.

The four in the alleyway turned to Daigo and Ryo.

The three guys started laughing. "Are you serious? What kind of knights in shining armor are you guys?" the leader laughed.

"The kind with guns" Daigo pulled out his fake gun and pointed it at the three.

"Yeah right! Like there's any way w-" the leader was interrupted when Ryo pulled out his gun and shot him in the leg.

The leader fell to the ground.

"Get out of our sight" Ryo motioned with his gun.

The three guys quickly ran away, one of them carrying off the injured leader.

"Why are you always so quick to shoot? And why are you always the one to try and figure out what to do with these situations?" Daigo sighed.

"I don't know honestly. I doubt they can trace the bullet back to us" Ryo shrugged.

"Wha-!? You mean you brought an ACTUAL GUN!?" Daigo was taken aback.

"We've been over this, of course I have."

"I thought you meant you brought your BB gun! I didn't think you were actually serious!"

"Of course I brought the real gun! If I brought the BB gun they'd know if it wasn't real when I shot them!" Ryo said.

"Ryo, you're a psychotic idiot! You could have just fired the gun into the air and shown them it was real instead of actually shooting the guy!"

"Yeah but we're in the city, let's face it, if I shot the sky, the bullet might have hit an innocent person"

"So you were fine with shooting a crook but not an innocent person!?"

"You aren't?"

"You could have fired with the BB gun into the air!"

"No, they would notice it wasn't a real gun" Ryo said.

"I don't think they'd care because it looks like a real gun!" Daigo sighed.

"Even if they don't notice it's not real because we're in the dark, I don't care; you can bail me out of jail later." Ryo put on a cheeky grin. "Now, let's go check on that w-"

Ryo paused when he noticed that the woman was gone.

"Where… did she go…?"

"You scared her off with her gun" Daigo pointed out.

"Well we saved a life and I don't give a single crap what you say anymore!" Ryo cheerily said. "Now let's go back to our hotel room."

The two turned around and prepared to leave the alleyway.

"You two… you may just be the last of the seven that I need"

A gentle female voice rang out behind the two. Daigo and Ryo slowly turned around.

A small blue vortex was forming in their air, and it was sucking them in.

A flat "What" was the last thing they said before they were sucked in.

(I'm not describing any outfit besides the Riders suits and the outfits that my OC's are wearing. You can Google what the original outfits from the game look like but as far as I know, these are original outfits my OC's are wearing.)

The Next Day…

"Chrom, we have to do SOMETHING"

A figure laid on the ground, surrounded by three others. Two of them were conversing while the third simply sat on a horse, waiting.

The figure began to open his eyes slowly.

"Well what do you propose we do?"

"I don't know"

The figure opened his eyes fully, looking at the two figures who were talking.

The two noticed this. "I see you're awake now" the male said.

"Hi there" the female said.

"There are better places to take a nap then on the ground you know. Here, give me your hand" the male offered his hand.

The figure on the ground took the males hand, revealing a strange purple symbol on the back of his hand before he was lifted off the ground.

"You all right?" the male asked.

"Y-yes… Thank you, Chrom." The figure said, pushing his hood off of his head to reveal white hair.

"Ah, then you know who I am?" Chrom asked.

"No, actually, I… It's strange… your name, it just… came to me…"

"…Hmm, how curious. Tell me, what's your name? What brings you here?" Chrom asked.

"My name is… It's…" the figure suddenly grabbed at his head in pain.

"You don't know your own name?" Chrom said.

"I'm not sure if… I'm sorry, but where am I, exactly?"

"Hey, I've heard of this! It's called amnesia!" the lone female of the group said.

"It's called a load of Pegasus dung" the man who remained silent on the outskirts of the group spoke up. "We're to believe you remember milord's name, but not your own?"

"But it's the truth!"

"…What if it IS true Frederick? We can't just leave him here, alone and confused. What sort of Shepherds would we be then?"

"Just the same, milord, I must emphasize caution. 'Twould not do to let a wolf into our flock"

"Right then, we'll take him back to town and sort this out there." Chrom suggested.

"Wait just one moment. Do I have a say in this?" the figure exclaimed.

"Peace, friend, I promise we'll hear all you have to say back in town. Now come."

A Few Hours Ago…

Daigo sat up suddenly. He was sitting inside of a cave with Ryo at his side. On the walls of the cave, there were small crystals that were an assortment of colors, the crystals glowing brightly and lighting up the cave.

"Ryo… Ryo… wake up!" Daigo slapped Ryo.

"Mama I don't wanna go to school" Ryo groggily sat up.

"Ryo focus! Where are we!?" Daigo shouted, his words echoing all around the cave.

"We're in a cave. We were just in the city and we were sucked into a portal after saving some lady when we were walking back to our hotel from a convention where we got a bunch of Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, and Ultraman gear… I think I need five more minutes to get out of this dream" Ryo laid back down with his head on his backpack as a makeshift pillow.

"Get your lazy butt up and help me find a way out of this cave!" Daigo grabbed Ryo by the collar and lifted him up.

"Why are we friends again? I'm supposed to be the crazy one who threatens you, not the other way around!" Ryo said.

Daigo released Ryo and picked up his bag, preparing to leave.

Ryo patted himself down and took notice of the crystals, walking over to a sea blue one.

"Hey, Daigo, take a look at these crystals" Ryo said.

"What about them?" Daigo sighed, turning to Ryo.

"Start grabbing them! These things are amazing!" Ryo pulled out the sea blue crystal and looked over it.

All of a sudden, the crystal began glowing. Sea blue energy traveled from the crystal all over Ryo, covering him in sea blue energy. When is disappeared, his outfit was now completely different.

He was now wearing a frilly white button up shirt under a black vest. He had on a pair of black pants and a sea blue jacket that reached down to his shins. The jacket was opened and had gold buttons. He had on what appeared to be black dress shoes. He had a brown leather belt holding his pants up with a sheath on one side and a holster on the other, one holding a sword while the other was a gun. he had long brown hair that went down to his cheeks, but his hair was still mainly covered by a black pirates hat.

"Dude… you look like an actual pirate!... well, except for that shirt."

"I'm just as amazed as you are" Ryo put on a huge grin.

He pulled out his gun. It was now a light sea green with a sky blue coloration covering the sides as well. There was a light blue lever on the back of the gun as well. Ryo pulled out his to cutlass from its sheath. The handle had changed to a midnight blue color while the blade was a silver color.

"This is so cool! What kind of crystals are these?" Ryo laughed before he pulled out three more crystals from the wall, the three being yellow, bright red, and a black/violet color.

Daigo looked at the wall and pulled out a blood red crystal from the wall.

The crystal glowed before energy covered him as well, changing him.

He now had on a bright red overcoat above an opened white vest. Under that, he had on a crimson button up shirt that had been ripped open, revealing his chest and abs underneath. He was wearing a necklace with a gold gem in the center along a wing design around the gem. Around his forehead was a headband with a crossed sword design on the front. His black hair was wild, but covered the headband except for the logo on the front. He had a pair of geta on his feet. He now had on a pair of baggy red pants with an object attached to the side of his belt. His belt was still the Drive Driver, only it was much slimmer and golden. The key on the top was missing and the speedometer design was gone and replaced by a design reminiscent of armor. The Shift Brace and Shift Car on his left wrist were replaced by an orange brace with a square shaped top. The square shape had a screen on it.

"…I have no idea what I am wearing."

"Well you are in no way ANY kind of samurai or shogun that I have ever seen" Ryo stated in a deadpan tone.

"What happened to my shirt?!" Daigo gestured to his open vest.

"I don't know and I don't honestly care. People are going to ENJOY that view. Thank you for taking those martial arts lessons when you were younger. And remind me to go to the gym you go to, the work they do is AMAZING apparently!" Ryo said.

"You are not helping the situation!"

Daigo pulled three more crystals out of the wall, the three being navy blue, dark green, and gold. The crystals glowed but other then that, nothing happened.

"Why am I stuck with the ridiculous outfit?" Daigo whined.

"Stop complaining. You can change your clothes when we get out of here" Ryo shrugged.

Daigo sighed and followed after his friend.

The two walked through the cave, using the crystals to light their path through the cave.

"How did we get here again?" Daigo said.

"I don't know maybe that woman drugged us with gas and then left us in this cave with these gems" Ryo guessed.

"I don't think that's it" Daigo looked at Ryo as if he was crazy. Which he was.

Eventually, the two of them reached the entrance of the cave and walked outside, covering their eyes at the sunlight.

"Where the heck are we?" Ryo said.

"Hang on. Let me check my phone" Daigo pulled out his phone. "Crap, I got no signal"

"Next time listen to me when I'm telling you not to go for the untrustworthy cell phone network"

"I trust them more than I trust you when you're in your crazy mode"

"That's actually a wise choice" Ryo smiled crazily.

The two walked through the forest in absolute silence until it was broken when Daigo's belt spoke.

"You know you guys are kind of boring"

Daigo and Ryo paused. The two young men slowly looked down at Daigo's belt. The screen was still blank.

"Did your belt just talk?" Ryo inquired.

"You heard it too?"

The screen lit up so it was now red. A voice came from the brace on Daigo's wrist.

"Yo. I can talk now. That's cool, right?" The belt screen flashed between red, blue, green, and gold with each syllable.

The two let this sink in for a moment.

"WHAT THE FU-?!" Ryo backed up into a tree.

"DUDE, GET IT OFF OF ME!" Daigo pleaded.

"Oh boy, this could take a while…"

"So… you were brought to life by these gems?" Daigo asked into the Shogun Brace.

"Yes. As far as I know, these gems are called Core Gems, and provide a mysterious energy that brought me to life and gave you guys these new costumes."

"Wow. These so called "Core Gems" aren't just beautiful to look at; they've also got some strange powers!" Ryo pulled out the sea blue Core Gem.

"But why were our outfits designed like this?"

"To be honest, you guys were wearing costumes, right? Well the Core Gems modified the costumes so they were more in tune with your personalities. They also increased your strength, endurance, speed, mental capacity, outer and inner appearances, etc."

"That explains why I have abs" Daigo said.

"That and the fact that you go to the gym often. Which I've said before. And it's a fact you should be aware of. Do you have a concussion from landing in that cave?"

"Shut up. Now, tell us where we are" Daigo spoke into the Shogun Brace.

"I don't know. I've been alive for minutes now trying to explain all of this to you guys"

"So we're stuck in this forest? This blows" Ryo sat down, leaning against a tree.

"Great. We need to get home somehow" Daigo sat down as well.

"Well since we're stuck here for a while, we might as well introduce ourselves. Call me SamuraiMaru" the belt spoke through the Shogun Brace.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Daigo, and my idiot, psychotic best friend over there is named Ryo."

"I'm also his roommate and childhood best friend! And I'm not afraid to cut you up, I've been to jail, I'll go back!"

"Dude, stop saying you'll go back to jail! I don't think they want you back after what you did during that Scared Straight program. And you somehow scared the INMATES of all people."

"They were getting in my face!"

"So you decided stabbing someone with his own shank and then acting as if he was the one at fault?! That was their job! You shouldn't have to unleash your bloodlust for EVERYTHING!"

"But it's not as fun!" Ryo whined.

"Besides that, how are you going to cut up a belt? I'm made of metal and there are two parts of me"

Ryo put on a malicious smile. "Want to find out?"

Daigo instinctively covered SamuruiMaru in protection. "Ryo, no killing sentient belts!"

"Why am I afraid for my life?"

"He has that affect on people who aren't used to him. I'm usually exempt from it"

"Well that's cause when I get the inexplicable urge to kill people the voice always says "Kill everyone BUT Daigo"!"

"Ryo that makes you sound mental. Why do you keep saying that to people, do you want to go back to that mental institution?"

"What if I do? Everyone was so nice and caring and actually treated me nicer than everyone else outside the institution. Though I could have done without the constant Frozen reruns."

"What's Frozen?"

"A movie that has been blown so much out of proportion. I heard 'Let it Go' being sung so many times before I even saw the movie and it was so annoying" Daigo groaned.

Ryo opened his mouth. "Sing it and I'll kill you. We both know you won't fight back against me" Ryo closed his mouth.

"So what will you two do now?" SamuraiMaru inquired.

"I guess we better get moving. If we can find lodging and a landline we can call one of our friends to help" Daigo stood up. Ryo did as well, the two of them starting to walk in one direction.

Present Time…

Chrom and the rest of the group traveled down the path.

"What will you do with me? Am I to be your prisoner?" The male figure asked.

"Hah! You'll be free to go once we establish you're no enemy of Ylisse." Chrom said.

"Is that where we are? Ylisse?"

"You've never heard of the halidom?" Frederick incredulously asked. "Ha! Someone pay this actor. He plays quite the fool! The furrowed brow is especially convincing…"

"Okay, first off, you need to shut up" the male figure snapped at Frederick. "Second, it's called amnesia for a reason"

Frederick silently growled.

"Frederick, please. This land is known as the Halidom of Ylisse. Or ruler, Emmeryn, is called the exalt. I suppose proper introductions are in order… My name is Chrom- but then, you already knew that. The delicate one here is my little sister, Lissa" Chrom gestured to the lone female of the group.

"I am NOT delicate!... Hmph! Ignore my brother, please. He can be a bit thick sometimes. But you're lucky the Shepherds found you. Brigands would've been a rude awakening!" Lissa exclaimed.

"Shepherds? You… you guys tend sheep?... dressed in full armor?... I may not know a lot about my past but that seems a bit farfetched"

"Hey, it's a dangerous job. Just ask Frederick the Wary here." Chrom laughed.

"A title I shall wear with pride. Gods forbid one of us keep an APPROPRIATE level of caution. I have every wish to trust you, stranger, but my station mandates otherwise." Frederick spoke up.

"First off, what did I say about shutting up; the part about me being an enemy is getting annoying. Second, I don't think it was a compliment" the male figure said.

"Come on, at least show him a LITTLE respect" Lissa asked.

"Fine. I guess I understand how you feel… heh, maybe I'd do the same as well. My name is… Robin… strange… I just remembered that. I guess that's one mystery solved."

"Robin? Is that foreign?... Ah, well. We can discuss it later. We're almost to town. Once we-"

"Chrom, look! The town!" Lissa interrupted, pointing down the path.

Down the path, a town could be seen on fire with men carrying weapons running all around.

"Grr. The town is ablaze! It must be the brigands again" Chrom growled. "Frederick, Lissa! Quickly!"

"What about him?" Frederick pointed to Robin.

"Unless he's on fire as well, it can wait!" Chrom shouted.

"Aptly put, milord."

"Suck up" Robin remarked under his breath.

"Let's go already!" Lissa demanded.

The three ran off, leaving Robin behind.

"But what about- hm…" Robin was left alone to his thoughts.

"Great now I'm all alone again" he sighed, crossing his arms.

Suddenly, his eyes widened. He clutched at his chest, gasping for breath.

"T-this energy! It feels… oddly familiar yet… oddly malicious… I have to go after them!"

Robin ran after the three.

Approximately Half An Hour Ago…

Ryo and Daigo walked through the town.

"This is a nice town, don't you think?" SamuraiMaru asked.

"Yeah, but everything seems a bit old fashioned for my tastes. And there's no technology at all. Something's a bit off here" Ryo said.

"A bit? Ryo something's been off for a long time, and it's namely been how we got into that cave, these outfits, the Core Gems and how old fashioned everything looks" Daigo spoke up.

"While we're on the subject of outfits, you may want to hide your necklace. Someone might steal it" Ryo pointed to the necklace hanging from Daigo's neck.

"No. I'm not removing it from around my neck unless I have to" Daigo grabbed the necklace instantly.

"Sorry, I forgot it was a sore memory for you" Ryo looked away sheepishly.

It was then that Ryo noticed the awkward and angry looks he was getting from the people around him.

"Hey, do you notice the looks we're getting?" Ryo asked.

"If you haven't noticed I'm a weirdly dressed samurai and you're dressed like a pirate in what appears to be times where pirates weren't considered the best people. We're not exactly going to fit in inconspicuously." Daigo noted.

"Even so, they don't appear to think that you're friendly" SamuraiMaru commented.

"What crap, I'm friendly" Ryo said.

"Ryo you're psychotic"

"Yeah but I befriended you, didn't I?"

"No, I befriended you before you became fully insane" Daigo sighed.

"Oh yeah there's that" Ryo nodded.

The two continued walking for a while.

"Hey… I don't think we're safe" Daigo cautioned. "They're starting to look at us with some kind of vengeance or something"

"Well, some may be appreciating that view of your chest, cause it's hot and all, but seriously though, I'm a pirate and I may die"

"No, you'd be the one to kill them"

"No, they're getting pitchforks, torches, and… are those lances and swords?! What kind of old fashioned town is this, I thought we didn't go back in time!?" Ryo exclaimed.

True to his word, people began filing out of buildings with weapons.

"Maybe you did go back in time."

"SamuraiMaru, there's a bigger concern in that we're about to get stabbed" Daigo gulped. Ryo and Daigo got back to back.

"We don't want your kind here pirate!" one of the people shouted.

"THAT'S why they're angry" Ryo realized.

"Why is it always you?" Daigo hissed to his best friend.

"It appears that several angry men have surrounded us. I don't really see why, we were just walking through the town peacefully. Well at least you two were, I was just observing"

"SamuraiMaru, please shut up" Daigo requested.

"Get out of our town!"

"We can't exactly do that; you guys have kind of formed a ring of people around us" Ryo spoke up.

The mob began shouting angrily at them several of them shouting at them to "die".

"It appears they have a grudge against pirates"

"Depends on the type of pirates they met I guess" Daigo noted that there were several people outside of the ring who were just watching with worry.

Ryo looked at the people shouting at them to die as he narrowed his eyes. He reached for his holster with his gun.

"Ryo, control your bloodlust!" Daigo shouted.

"How else are we going to get out of here, we have to fight our way out or die!" Ryo yelled back.

"No, let's just act civilized! We can figure this out rationally without inciting any fight!" Daigo growled towards his friend.

"Tch, why do you always have to be the pacifistic one?" Ryo angrily moved his hand from his gun holster.

"Someone has to, and it will probably never be you"

The crowd began getting angrier and angrier when louder shouting started and several men appeared from nowhere, swinging weapons and beginning to kill the people in the ring.

"HOLY CRAP!"

"JESUS!"

"Oh my"

"HOW ARE YOU SO CALM ABOUT THIS?!" Daigo demanded into the Brace.

"I'm supposed to react? Weren't they just shouting for your head on a platter?"

"They're still human lives!"

"Human… lives?"

A large man appeared, laughing. He picked up a torch and threw it into a building behind him, setting it ablaze.

"Gwa ha ha! Get to it, lads! Grab anything shiny, and put the rest to the torch! We gots an example to set for these Ylissean types! Ain't that right, lass?" the large man grabbed a lady who was trying run away.

"S-stay away from me! Please! Someone! HEEEEEELP!"

Ryo's eyes narrowed as he pulled his gun out of its holster.

"Put her down! I must warn you, if you have her life in danger, I won't miss! Who are you?!" he demanded.

The large man took notice of Ryo and laughed.

"If you want to know, the names Garrick! Get 'em lads!" Garrick shouted.

Several man ran at Daigo and Ryo.

"Okay, now I'm mad! Unleash the bloodlust! Daigo, here! Watch my back!" Ryo pulled his Cutlass out of its sheath and tossed it to Daigo before opening fire, hitting a brigand in the arm and causing him to drop to the ground, howling in pain.

Daigo quickly used the Cutlass to slash at a man who got near, cutting into his shoulder before kicking him away and disorienting him.

"Daigo, you have no choice but to kill him. They'll keep coming back otherwise"

"This is still human lives we're talking about here!"

"They're trying to kill you!"

"Daigo! Backup! Now!"

Daigo slashed at another man who came closer while Ryo shot him in the head, killing him instantly.

Daigo stepped back in surprise only to dodge out of the way of a slash before retaliating with a stab, piercing the mans stomach. He pulled the sword out, freaked out when the man fell to the ground and began bleeding out.

"Daigo, behind you!"

The young man spun around to see a man attacking him from above. All of a sudden, a figure shoved him out of the way and intercepted the attack, killing the man by stabbing him on the stomach.

Daigo fell to the ground in surprise.

"Are you alright?" Chrom asked.

Daigo dumbly nodded, still in shock.

"Daigo! Get up and help!"

Daigo shakily stood up.

"I just… killed a man" Daigo panted.

"It's okay; he was trying to kill you"

"So I should have taken his life?!"

"Milord!" Frederick jumped in to intercept an attack meant for Chrom.

Chrom shoved Daigo out of the way of an attack again before attacking with his weapon.

"Look out!" Daigo slashed wide with his sword, hitting at a man charging at Ryo before Ryo turned and blasted the man in the head, killing him instantly.

Daigo looked around the fighting, continuing to see people fighting and dying.

"W-what kind of sick twisted place is this?" Daigo said.

"Daigo, if you don't fight, you won't survive, now start swinging!" SamuraiMaru shouted.

Daigo continued to look, horrified, as a person snuck up behind him. Just as they raised their weapon, another figure jumped in and slashed at him before pointing their blade at them.

"THUNDER!"

A bolt of electricity surged from the sword, sending the figure flying.

Daigo turned around in surprise.

"Get moving!" Robin ordered, running past Daigo.

The remaining fighters began to move back to Garrick.

"Garrick, what do we do?" one of them asked.

"I guess I don't have a choice!" Garrick pulled out a pitch black and violet gem.

"A Core Gem?" Daigo and Ryo simultaneously said in surprise.

"Core Gem?" Robin looked at the gem in confusion.

The gem glowed grey before energy circled around him, transforming him.

When the energy dissipated, a monster stood in Garrick's place.

The monster looked to be a mutated version of a human, with the skin being pitch black and stretched taut across the muscles and bones, which in themselves were barely visible. The muscles that he had were larger than that of the muscles Garrick had. The face was Garrick's face, only the eyes were a red color and his mouth was bellowing yellow smoke.

"What the f-" Ryo started.

"Daigo, there's something that I want you to do" SamuraiMaru interrupted.

"What?" Daigo looked down.

"Excuse me, can you people please hold off those creatures as long as you can?" SamuraiMaru asked.

Chrom turned to Daigo in confusion.

"Was that voice you?"

Robin shrugged and charged Mutant Garrick. Frederick nodded and charged Mutant Garrick as well.

Lissa on the other hand…

"Wow! You have a talking belt! Is it magic?" Lissa appeared (from… somewhere) and ran to Daigo, grabbing at SamuraiMaru.

"Where did you come from!?" Daigo shouted in surprise.

"Miss.Miss.Please let go of me"

"See, I told you they would throw themselves at you with that view" Ryo nudged Daigo.

Daigo just shoved the Cutlass into Ryo's hands and looked back down at SamuraiMaru, prying Lissa off of the belt.

"Okay fine. If it involves getting out of this situation, then fine, what do I have to do?" Daigo grabbed the side of the buckle.

"Henshin"

"…I'm sorry what?" Daigo's eyes widened.

"Ryo, grabbed onto Daigo's shoulders."

Ryo complied, sheathing the Cutlass and putting his left hand on Daigo's right shoulder.

"Now take out the Core Gems that changed your outfits"

Daigo and Ryo pulled out the Core Gems, Daigo having the blood red one while Ryo had the sea blue one.

"Now just wait"

The belts screen flashed all four colors at once as the Core Gems glowed. The Core Gem in Daigo's hand changed into a small medal with a fire design. The Core Gem in Ryo's hand turned into a small sea blue bullet.

The Core Gems in Daigo and Ryo's pockets flew out and circled around them. The Core Gems belonging to Daigo turned into medals and rested on the right side of his belt, an open case shaped like a disc appearing as the medals fit into their own slots before the case closed.

A buckle that attached to his belt formed on Ryo's waist and the Core Gems he had turned into bullets like the last one before they flew into the buckle.

Ryo pulled his hand from Daigo's shoulder to look over the bullet as Daigo held up the red medal.

"Now, Daigo, insert the Shogun Fire Core into the Shogun Brace and press down on the button on top. Ryo, pull out your Kaizoku Shot, open the back, and slide the Sea Kaizoku Bullet into it. Then pull the lever on your gun back"

Daigo held up the wrist holding the Shogun Brace and slid the Shogun Fire Core into it before pressing down on the top, a pulsing noise starting up from the Brace.

Ryo opened the back of his gun and slid the bullet in before closing it. He pulled the lever on the back of the gun back.

"Daigo, take the Shogun Brace off of your wrist and open it before spinning the core. Ryo, pull the trigger. But when you both do: Daigo, I want you to announce: "Shogun Henshin, Sanjou!", and Ryo, I want you to announce: "Kaizoku Henshin"!"

Daigo reached to the Shogun Brace and twisted it off before pressing down on a button, causing it to unfold to reveal the inside of a phone.

Daigo looked down at the Shogun Phone and swallowed a breath.

"Shogun… Henshin… Sanjou!"

He spun the Shogun Fire Core.

"Kaizoku Henshin, Sanjou!"

Ryo pulled the trigger.

Shogun Fire Sequence!

Sea Pirate Sequence!

A ball of fire emerged from the Shogun Phone and circled around Daigo fast, creating a vortex of flames.

Finally, the flames merged with Daigo before dissipating, revealing a new figure standing in Daigo's place.

A bullet shot out of the Kaizoku Shot and flew into the air before changing into an armored figure and flying to Ryo, merging with him and creating a suit.

The flames around Daigo dissipated, revealing he had merged with the figure.

Daigo now was equipped in a skin tight bright red spandex-like suit. He had blood red samurai like armor equipped all over his body with his chest plate having the design of two swords that were crossed in an X-shape. Loose armor hung from his shoulders, but it was still enough to protect him if he needed it to. On the side of his belt, there was a circular object almost like the hilt of a sword hanging from a holder. His helmet was designed after a samurai mask, only there were a pair of orange bug-like "eyes" above a gold mouthplate. His belt strap was colored blood red with a fire design on it.

Ryo now had a skin tight light blue spandex-like suit for his upper body while his lower body had a black suit. Sea blue chest armor design after a pirates coat with parts of it extending to his shins was on his body. The coat-like armor extended down his arms, silver metal equipped onto his elbows. He had metal armor on his shins and kneecaps. The top of his helmet looked like a smaller version of a pirate's hat with the remainder of his looking like a face. The face was sea blue like the rest of the suit and had a silver mouthplate while the "eyes" were a dark blue with a bug-eye like design. On his chest was white skull and crossbones symbol.

"Ryo! I only said Daigo had to say Sanjou!"

"What part of me cares?" Ryo looked over his new outfit in excitement.

"We… turned into Kamen Riders?" Daigo looked over his suit.

"Fine. Daigo, you are now Kamen Rider Shogun! Ryo, you are Kamen Rider Kaizoku!"

"Shogun?" Shogun looked at the Shogun Phone that was in his hand.

"Kaizoku. Fitting I guess" Kaizoku looked at his Kaizoku Shot.

"What matter of sorcery is this?" Chrom looked at the two.

"Cool!" Lissa was in awe.

Robin and Frederick looked at them. Robin with a blank, indifferent look while Frederick narrowed his eyes in distrust.

"Daigo, I'm taking control"

"Wait, what?!"

Shogun's body stiffened. His eyes glowed, turning into a gold color before he relaxed. Shogun moved his arms slowly, flexing his fingers as he did. Shogun chuckled and took the Shogun Phone before putting it on the sheath and twisting it, locking it in place so the bottom of the phone was pointing towards his front.

He pressed down on the button. Flames ignited from the sheath and began extending from the sheath, forming a handle in one direction while a metal blade formed from the other. The sheath formed a hilt by which the Shogun Phone was connected to.

Shogun drew his Shogun Saber, the Shogun Phone resting on the outside of his hand as he pointed it at Mutant Garrick before he rested the weapon on his shoulder.

"Daigo?" Kaizoku cautiously looked towards his best friend.

Shogun walked calmly towards the brigands, who charged in response.

Once one got close, a simple swing from his sword sent a brigands head rolling across the ground, the body soon following. Any further brigands attempted to stop, only for Shogun to appear in front of them, stabbing and slashing them. Shogun spun around and decapitated another brigand before turning towards a cowering brigand.

He pointed his blade towards him and calmly walked towards him. The brigand began screaming and turned to run. In the next second, Shogun appeared behind him and stabbed him in the back of his head from behind, the blade protruding from the brigands mouth before Shogun retracted it.

"He's a natural killer" Chrom watched the slaughter from a distance.

"No he's not. That person killing those people… that isn't Daigo at all" Kaizoku spoke up, anger in his voice.

Shogun ran towards Mutant Garrick, slashing at him and catching him across the chest. Shogun continued slashing repeatedly at Mutant Garrick, the mutant getting knocked around by the samurai.

Mutant Garrick landed on the ground, rolling away.

Shogun brandished his Shogun Saber and began walking towards Mutant Garrick when Kaizoku stopped him.

"Stop it SamuraiMaru! Give Daigo back!" Kaizoku grabbed Shogun from behind, trying to stop him.

"If my human host will refuse to fight back, even to save his own life, then I'll simply take control from now on" Shogun's eyes flashed, mimicking how SamuraiMaru's screen flashed when he talked.

"What?!" Kaizoku shouted.

Shogun kicked backwards, hitting Kaizoku in the shin and startling him long enough for Shogun to slash at his pirate counterpart. Kaizoku stumbled backwards and fell to the ground. Shogun turned back to Mutant Garrick.

"I'm not done yet!" Kaizoku stood up and aimed his Kaizoku Shot at Shogun, firing several shots.

Shogun spun around and slashed multiple times, slicing at the bullets and sending them away. The bullets hit several of the brigands and killed them immediately. Shogun ran to Kaizoku, brandishing his weapon.

Kaizoku drew his Kaizoku Cutlass and charged as well.

The two clashed blades, Kaizoku and Shogun matching strength. Kaizoku raised his gun to Shogun's head and fired, disorienting Shogun before kicking him away.

Kaizoku slashed at Shogun repeatedly and then aimed his gun at Shogun, pulling the trigger multiple times. This went on for a bit, leading Shogun to back into a wall, his chest constantly sparking.

"Hey, that's enough!" Robin shouted, trying to stop Kaizoku.

"Don't interfere!" Kaizoku shoved Robin to the ground and quickly pulled at a handle on his Kaizoku Shot before holstering it. He sheathed his Cutlass as well.

Firing! Sea Pirate! Final Sequence!

Kaizoku got ready, a blue energy forming at the barrel of his gun. His gun in the holster began to become covered in sea blue energy, the energy beginning to filter out of it and forming a sea blue energy dome with the appearance of water around him.

Shogun sheathed his blade, pressing down on the button on the Shogun Phone and spinning the Shogun Fire Core.

Burning! Shogun Fire! Final Sequence!

Shogun got into a ready stance, fire trickling down his sword. The fire began swirling around Shogun, forming a blood red energy dome of fire around him.

The domes of energy filtered into their right legs. Shogun and Kaizoku jumped into the air, fire surrounding Shogun's foot while ice cold energy surrounded Kaizoku's.

"Blaze Drop!" Shogun shouted, extending his right foot, which was covered with flames.

"Ice Break!" Kaizoku called out, extending his right foot, which was covered in cold energy.

The two attacks connected, causing the two energies conflicting and causing waves of both hot and cold winds to blast off in the directions of both Riders. Due to Kaizoku being towards the burning buildings, the cold waves he emitted put them out.

"The ability to generate this heat and cold… what kind of power do these two contain!?" Robin demanded, shielding his eyes from the intense winds.

The two energies continued to clash, causing an explosion that knocked them aside.

Daigo and Ryo fell to the ground a fair distance from each other, crying out in pain.

Daigo opened his eyes, revealing they were golden before they changed back to normal, signifying SamuraiMaru's hold was released.

"Daigo. Transform again. We cannot let that mu- what are you doing?!"

SamuraiMaru was interrupted by Daigo ripping him from his waist and tossing him aside before doing the same to his Shogun Brace and Saber.

"Get away from me!" he crawled away quickly only for him to stop and cry out in pain over his right leg.

Ryo attempted to get up, only to fall back down to the ground immediately and clutch at his leg in pain.

The remaining four looked between the two with confused looks. "What just happened?" Lissa asked. Mutant Garrick turned and ran away. "Hey, stop!" Robin called, unable to stop the monster.

Several other people appeared "There he is! Get him!" they pointed towards Ryo before running to him. They lifted up the young man before dragging him away.

"Hey! Put me down! Where are you taking me!?" he demanded.

One of the men walked towards Chrom and the other two. "I apologize that that pirate was around to ruin your visit. Thank you for your help, please stay, for we will throw a massive feast in your honor!" the man smiled falsely.

Daigo watched this happen.

"Ryo… he didn't do anything wrong! You didn-" the man promptly turned and kicked him in the face, knocking him to the ground.

The man spat at him.

"What's your problem!" Robin demanded, shoving the man backwards.

"Anyone associating themselves with a pirate are as bad as pirates themselves" the man replied.

"But that "pirate" worked to save this town! And the real threat you're worried about is still out there! Now what exactly did he do to deserve this treatment!?" Robin demanded.

"He's a pirate, that's all the reason I need" the man said.

Robin promptly slugged the man in the face, knocking him to the ground. "How did that feel? Do you think it was unrightly justified? Well that's just ironic now isn't it?!"

SamuraiMaru laid on the ground, watching the scene in confusion.

"…humans are truly strange creatures indeed"

Explanations:

Daigo/Shogun: Daigo is a tribute to Samurai Sentai Shinkenger/Power Rangers Samurai and Super Samurai and Kamen Rider Drive. His Shogun Brace is also modified from the Shift Brace from the Drive Driver, only having transformed into a cell-phone like device that he uses to transform with a disc and his sword. His sword is basically just a large katana that can be used to conduct the element that is being used in the current form.

SamuraiMaru is a belt created from the Drive Driver by the Shogun Fire Core Gem, which in itself turned into the Shogun Fire Core. SamuraiMaru is a special case as the only reason that Daigo and Ryo have special versions of the Core Gems is because when it was modified, SamuraiMaru was given a mind of its own due to the Drive Driver being a Driver that could talk to the user and was given influence over the Core Gems.

Ryo/Kaizoku: Ryo's Kaizoku Shot is a pistol that was modified into one of his own personal weapons and transformation devices. His Kaizoku Cutlass is modified from his plastic cutlass that he took along to a convention. The Kaizoku Bullets are simply Core Gems that have changed into bullets that Ryo uses in his Kaizoku Shot. Ryo is a reference to Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger and Kamen Rider DiEnd. He's not a reference to Power Rangers Super Megaforce. Take a wild guess why.
