Kamen Rider CD
Episode One: CD Time 2018
The OMNIVERSE. The entire known existence. Once a world is created, it is given form as an alternate universe adjacent to the world of their creators. The worlds are separated by the Fourth Walls of Reality, stuck in their own multiverses of differing timelines and dimensions. However, as many battles are waged across these worlds, the Fourth Walls are weakened, and now, the entire existence is in danger. But, the Hero of Legend shall now arise!
VIRGINIA, USA, EARTH. REAL WORLD.
In the city of Lynchburg, people are going about their business. Some are heading to work, some are going to school, and others are just exploring. One person in particular is running quickly. Christian Rice, an American otaku and tokusatsu fan, is running as fast as he can, looking distraught. "Oh shit! I'm late!" he thinks to himself, "Beth is gonna kill me if I'm late to the party!"
Christian had promised to come to a party that a friend of his was having, and the girl in question was easy to anger. Therefore, Christian didn't want to anger her by being late. He especially didn't want her to castrate him or something, He was waving in and out of the crowds of people, trying to make it to the pizza place where Beth was holding the party. Christian normally fell asleep around 11 p.m., but sometimes, he doesn't sleep until 2 a.m., cause he tends to stay up, watching videos on YouTube and reading stories. For the past week, he planned to wake up early, as Beth wanted everyone there by 10 a.m., but Christian was staying up, watching tokusatsu shows. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't fall asleep, so he ended up waking up at 9:30. When he realized this, he ate a snack so that he wouldn't be either starving or full, he took a shower, and he ran out the front door. Since then, he's been running to the pizza place, hoping to not be too late, in order to lower his chances of Beth killing him. And that's no exaggeration, as Beth was very friendly at times, but she also had a violent temper. However, Christian thought of her as a close friend, and she seemed to understand him. As he's running, Christian eyes an alleyway that's nearby, and he thinks, "That might be a good shortcut."
He takes the alleyway, hoping to speed up his journey. However, as he journeys down the alleyway, Christian notices something is… off. He stops moving, and there, in the distance, he sees an odd figure, standing there. The figure is in a mysterious cloak, and then, the figure raises their right hand. Christian is confused, however, he can't think about what's going on, as the figure vanishes in a flash of light. Christian is shocked, but then, a voice says, "Your time has come."
Christian jumps forward, turning around as he notices the figure standing there. However, there's no face there, only a white void. "Wh-Who are you?!" Christian asks, confused about what's going on.
" The time has come for you to traverse the worlds," the figure says.
"Traverse? Worlds?" Christian asks, "What are you talking about?"
The figure pulls out a ball of light, which Christian stares at. The figure lets go of it, and the ball of light floats over to Christian. Confused, he grabs it, and then, the ball of light turns into a Blank Ridewatch. Christian stands there, shocked at the item. "A Ridewatch? Is this for real?" he asks the figure, but when he looks, they are gone.
He is shocked by this, but decides to travel down the alleyway anyway, pocketing the watch. "That was odd," he thinks to himself, "I hope that was the only weird thing I'll see."
THIRTY MINUTES LATER.
Christian runs into the pizza place, and there, everyone is partying. However, they stop, as they look at Christian. One in particular, Beth, looks extremely angry. She walks up to him, and she stares at him. Christian, nervously, says, "H-Hello, Be-", but she screams, "You tardy idiot! What took you so long?!"
Christian stands there, frozen in fear, and he mutters, "S-Sorry, I… uh… stayed up too late."
This makes Beth punch him in the shoulder, and he mutters, "Ow."
" I should've known. You must've been watching your stupid toku shows," she says, and he answers with, "H-Hey! They're not stupid! Also, I was rushing here, but then, I saw someone weird in the distance."
Beth looks at him, confused as to what he's referring to. "What the hell are you talking about?" she asks, and he pulls out the Blank Ridewatch that the figure gave him.
Beth stares at it, and then, she grabs it, which shocks Christian. She opens the nearby window, and she chucks it out of the window. "Hey!" he yells, and she says, "That's for wasting my time over a dumb toy!"
He stares at the window, and he sighs. "Great! I wanted to know why that watch was given to me," he thinks to himself.
He stares back out the window, and there, he notices something outside. There is a weird circle in the sky, dark and swirling around. "What the hell is that?" he says aloud, which catches Beth's attention.
She walks up to him, and asks, "What the hell are you talking about?"
She looks at the sky as well, and is confused. "What is that?" she asks as well.
" It's a dimensional portal," a voice says, which shocks the two.
There, the figure from before is standing there. Christian is surprised to see them again. "You again?!" he says, which Beth finds weird.
" Who the hell is this?" she asks Christian, who responds, "O-Oh! This is the guy I was talking about."
Then, the figure, reaches into their cloak, and they pull out the Blank Ridewatch that Beth threw out a second ago. This shocks both of them. "The Ridewatch?!" Christian says, "You found it!"
However, the figure nods 'no'. "No, you are destined to have this Ridewatch, so no matter what, it would always return to you," the figure says.
They hand the watch to Christian, who looks at it. "The barriers between the Omniverse's dimensions are breaking down, and if you don't explore them, the evil of the dimensions will take over the Real World," the figure explains.
This shocks everyone in the building, and Christian points to himself. "M-Me?!" he says, confused.
MEANWHILE…
In a nearby park, people are enjoying the day. They're playing sports, having picnics, and taking naps. However, at that moment, one of the portals opens up, and out of it pops a Ridewatch, depicting a dark version of the video game character Sonic the Hedgehog. One child notices this, and he runs over to it. He picks it up and looks at it. He pushes the button on top, which activates a beeping noise.
SONIC!
Then, the watch is surrounded in Dark Energy, and it zaps the child, causing them to drop it. The child whines, running back to his mother. However, the watch floats, before morphing into a man sized monster. The monster resembles Sonic, but looks evil and grotesque. On his chest, it says SONIC, and on the back, it says 1991. The monster is the Kaijin Hero Another Sonic, and he scares the nearby people, who run away in fear. He then dashes around, knocking the people off their feet, injuring them.
PIZZA PLACE.
Back at the pizza place, everyone hears the screaming going around. This worries them, and the figure looks at Christian. "You must go. The evil must be stopped, before they take over," they say, and Christian is confused.
" Wh-What?! How can I do anything?" he asks, but then, the figure pulls out something: a Ziku Driver.
This shocks Christian, who stares at it. "A… Ziku Driver?" he says, "Is it a toy…? Or…?" The figure hands it to Christian, who stares at it.
" With this, you can become a hero of legend," the figure says, "Take it, and begin your quest."
Christian stares at the driver, the portal, everyone else, then Beth. He stares at the figure, and he nods 'yes'. "I'll do it!" he says, which surprised everyone.
He runs out, which irritates Beth. "Ch-Christian! What the hell?!" she yells, as she runs after him. "What are you doing?!" she asks him again, and he turns away, continuing in the direction of the screams.
" Sorry, Beth," he says, "But, if that weird guy is telling the truth, and all this stuff is for real, then I need to see what I can do!"
He speeds up, surprising Beth. She grunts angrily, shouting, "You idiot!"
She stops for a second, but then, the figure is there, saying, "You can't keep him from his destiny."
This shocks her, and she throws a punch, only for him to avoid it. "Shut up!" she says, "You're driving him to his death!"
" Oh, you know nothing of this matter. That man shall become the hero of all existence," the figure responds, and Beth gives him the middle finger, before running after Christian.
The figure chuckles, and says, "The time has come for the Hero of Legend to arise!"
CITY PARK. 5 MIN LATER…
Since he has arrived, Another Sonic has been injuring many people, and the police have now arrived. They get out of their squad cars, shouting at the civilians to run away. They point their guns at him, looking confused. "What is that thing?!" one cop asks, and another answers, "Don't know. Don't care. Blast it!"
The cops begin to fire at Another Sonic, but he turns into a ball, which the bullets bump into, before falling to the ground. The cops are shocked, and then, Another Sonic does a version of the Spin Dash, slicing through the cars, which blow up, killing several cops and bystanders. Then, Christian and Beth arrive at the park, and there, they see Another Sonic attacking people. This shocks them. "What the hell is that thing?!" Beth asks, and Christian responds, "It looks like Sonic. But, it also looks like an Another Rider."
The figure appears behind them, and then, they add, "The Another Hero is sent from another world. You must defeat it, or its master will be able to conquer the Real World."
Christian nods, and then, he attaches the Ziku Driver to his waist.
ZIKU DRIVER!
The buckle magically attaches straps to itself, wrapping around Christian's waist.. This shocks Christian and Beth, but then, Another Sonic stares them down. Christian takes out the Ridewatch, which transforms into the CD Ridewatch. Christian turns the dial on the watch, and he hits the button.
CD!
Christian then inserts it into the Driver. Then, the display shows a controller looking image that is green. He hits the button on the Driver, and a clock icon forms behind Christian, who he is amazed. He makes a pose, and shouts, "HENSHIN!"
He then turns the Driver, which makes a clock noise.
RIDER TIME! KAMEN RIDER CD!
Christian is surrounded in energy, as the clock behind him forms the letters "RDR" for Rider. The energy fades, revealing Christian in a suit, as the RDR flies onto his face, forming his visor and completing his transformation. Christian stands there, in a suit adorned with emerald imagery; emerald shoulder pads; and a green, black, and gold color scheme. He has transformed into Kamen Rider CD! CD stands there, amazed at his new form. The figure then says, "The hero of the Omniverse has arrived!", before disappearing.
CD then adds, "I am… Kamen Rider CD!"
The monster runs at CD, knocking him over. This shocks him, and he gets up. "Damn, he's fast," he says, "What do I do?"
Another Sonic charges at CD again, but this time, he ducks. Another Sonic shoots rings from his hands, which CD blocks. They push him back, and then, he sighs, "Man! I'm not used to this! I need something to hit him with!"
At that moment, the letters "CDS" appear out of nowhere, and they form into a sword, the CD Slasher.
CD SLASHER!
CD is confused. "CD Slasher?" he says, but then, he notices that Another Sonic is shooting out emeralds this time.
CD charges at Another Sonic, slashing the Emeralds away. Then, he slashes at Another Sonic, knocking him into the air. "This is it!" he shouts, before pressing the button on the CD Ridewatch.
FINISH TIME!
A display pops up when he presses the button, before spinning the driver.
TIME BUST!
CD jumps into the air, and then, multiple "KCK"s for Kick appear, before imprinting onto CD's right foot. He then flies down, before implanting his foot onto Another Sonic, delivering a Rider Kick that sends him flying into a lake, before exploding. CD lands on the ground, and he shouts, "That was AWESOME!"
Beth runs up to him, and she is smiling. "That was amazing, Christian!" she says, before adding, "It seems that your knowledge of toku came in handy after all."
He nods, and he says, "Yeah. And it was so cool! But, why was the monster Sonic-esque? And, what did the figure mean by the Real World?"
After he says that, a portal opens up under him, and he notices this. Beth is shocked, and CD shouts, "Fuck!", as he falls into the portal.
Beth tries to grab his hand, but she is too slow, and the portal closes up. In the distance, the figure says, "The hero has now entered his first world, and what shall await him?"
The figure then vanishes.
WORLD OF ?.
In a different world altogether, a portal opens in the sky, and CD falls out, his head crashing into the ground. CD grabs the ground, and struggles, before popping his head out of the ground. He looks around, confused as to his surroundings. "Where the hell… am I?" he asks aloud, and then, he is shocked, as a gust of blue wind dashes past him.
The wind stops, and it is revealed to CD. "It… can't be!" he shouts.
There, in front of him, is a blue hedgehog, with green eyes and wearing red sneakers with white straps. There is Sonic the Hedgehog. "Who… are you?" the gaming icon says.
