Android Kikaider 02: The Fanfic
Disclaimer: I do not own Kikaider or Kikaider 01 or any of the characters except for Niro/02 and some of the other made-up characters.
It was a dark and stormy night in a laboratory far from a local suburban area. In the laboratory is a young woman is looking at two large containers. Inside the containers are robotic skeletons, one marked with 02 and the other marked as 03. The young woman, Dr. Mitsuko Komyoji, observes some graphs on the containers.
"Well, 02's development is almost complete. I still need to install the Gemini in 03 though."
Meanwhile, a 16 year-old boy, Masaru, looks out of the window towards the laboratory.
"She sure is staying out later than usual."
Masaru began to read his book again and then went back to looking out the window.
"Mitsuko, do you miss him so much that you would make the child he could never give you?"
Back in the Komyoji laboratory, Mitsuko continued to work on the androids. Then she turned around to a computer for an analysis update when she heard a loud crash. Mitsuko turned to see that the container holding the android marked as 03 had been shattered and a giant lizard held the robot over his shoulder. "So I see that even as our organization continues to grow you continue to make soldiers to stop us. However, resistance is futile. You cannot stop us as long as I have your 'child.'"
Lightning struck, and the flash revealed the intruder to be a giant robotic lizard. This machine then turned to see the container marked as 02. "And soon I shall have both of your children!"
The monster pounded on the container again and again, but Mitsuko threw a lever that surrounded it in electricity. "No! I won't let you take him from me!"
The monster's arm was blown off from the electric shock. The robotic lizard ran off screaming in pain carrying the lifeless 03. Mitsuko turned off the barrier and went to the chamber of 02. "You're the only one I have left now..."

"Komyoji. Niro Komyoji." "Here."
The boy named Niro Komyoji had spiky brown hair, brown eyes, a blue and brown varsity leather jacket, an orange shirt with a red stripe running down the middle, blue pants, brown shoes and gloves, a red electric guitar sitting at the side of his desk, and a belt that had a unique 02 on it. He was indeed a normal human boy, or so he seemed. After roll was called, Niro took down notes as the teacher continued with his lesson just like any other day. As time passed the class ended, and Niro went to his locker.
At Niro's locker, Niro changed out his books and was getting ready to go home until a boy his own age showed up. "Hey Niro. How's it going?"
"Oh. Hey Gunta. Just getting ready to head back home."
"Oh. Well, me and Suzume were just going to hang out. Want to join us?"
"I would like to, but I promised my mom that I would help out around the house. Plus, I have some homework to do."
"Man. Okay, but we still have to hook up sometime soon, or I'll pound you into a pulp."
Niro just smiled. "I seriously doubt that you could do that."
"What?! You dare question me?! I'll have you remember that I am Gunta Momochi! The descendant of the legendary ninja Sanjayu Momochi!"
Niro just laughed a little bit. "I know. I know. But in the meantime, just stick to taking pictures for the school paper."
"...Don't you have some chores you should be helping your mom out with?"
"Oh yeah! Thanks for the invite, but I really need to go. See ya!"
With that, Niro ran off to his home.
Niro ran as fast as he could with his books in his arms and his electric guitar on his back. His speed was above that of anyone else he knew, and he never seemed out of breath because of it. Once he got home, he opened the door and set his books on the table. "Mom, I'm home."
Soon Mitsuko Komyoji came around the corner with a vacuum cleaner. "Welcome home. How was your day?"
"It was just fine. Gunta invited me to hang out with him after school, but I told him that I promised that I was going to help you with the chores."
"Thanks Niro. Um, could you help with the couch? I need to vacuum under it."
"Yes ma'am."
With that, Niro grabbed the couch's underside with one hand and lifted it completely off the ground without strain. Mitsuko then vacuumed under the hovering furniture. "Thanks Niro."
"You're welcome," he said as he set the couch back down easily.
"If you could, would you please clean the windows around the house as well?"
"Sure thing."
Niro left her to get the cleaning supplies. As he was leaving Mitsuko smiled at her son.
Niro got the stepladder and began to wash the windows until he saw the 18 year-old Masaru. "Hey, Uncle Masaru."
"How's it going, Niro?"
"Just fine. Mom asked me to clean these windows."
"Need some help?"
"Only if it wouldn't be too much trouble."
Soon Masaru began to join in the cleaning process. He stopped for a second to look at Niro then went back to cleaning the windows. He thought to himself, "It's been two years since he was created, and I still can't get over how he looks so much like Jiro.
"It's been ten years since he destroyed that Dark headquarters. I still remember the explosion from it. It didn't look like there was any possible way that Jiro could have survived, and I knew it. However, I always kept wishing that somehow he would just walk through the door. But no matter how badly I want him to come home it can't possibly compare to how badly Mitsuko wants him back.
"I can even still remember how they would always look at each other. A love relationship between a human and an android sounds strange, but Jiro was more human than most humans. Maybe that's why no one bothered to question it. Not even Mr. Hattori. And now Mitsuko has started her own family without him, and yet with him even though Niro doesn't know his own father. But sometimes I wonder just how exactly Mitsuko built him. I know that Niro has a complete Gemini, but is there more to him than that?"
It soon became evening time at the Komyoji house, and Niro was outside playing his electric guitar with the amplifier cord hooked into the 0 of his belt. As he was playing, he didn't notice that Mitsuko and Masaru were watching him from the window. The two of them noticed that he was playing the same sad song that Jiro would play. They just kept watching him until Masaru broke the silence. "He's really good."
"Yes he is."
"Mitsuko, there's one thing that I've never asked you that's been picking at my brain lately."
"What is it?"
"I know you modeled Niro after Jiro. He looks like him, he plays like him, and sometimes he even talks like him. But...exactly how much did you build him like Jiro?"
"What are you talking about?"
"His fighting ability."
"What do you mean?"
"Mitsuko...you made him to be a lot like Jiro in human form. But Jiro is an android, and so is Niro. The human look was just a cover for what he really was."
"Masaru, what are you trying to say?"
"Alright, I'll be as blunt as I can. Did you make Niro into a Kikaider as well?"
Mitsuko never answered that question. Instead, she just looked downward and sighed. Masaru looked at his older sister strangely. "Why? Niro doesn't need to be in fights! Why would you make Niro into a battle android?!"
"Masaru...there's something that I haven't told you. You see..."
It was then that Mitsuko and Masaru saw an explosion close to where Niro was. Niro dodged the explosion, stood up, put his guitar on his back, and looked around to see where it came from. "Who's there? Show yourself!"
It was then that a strange-looking buffalo charged at him from somewhere and struck Niro in the back sending him flying into a tree. However, Niro soon got back up to see who his attacker was. The attacker was blue and on all fours, but then got up on two legs, and the front hooves turned into hands. "I am called Blue Buffalo. I am ordered to capture or destroy the unit called Kikaider 02."
"Huh?! Kikaider 02?!"
Mitsuko was shocked to hear this. "No! They've come for him!"
Blue Buffalo then launched his horn missiles at him, and as well as Niro dodged the missile attack the explosions hit him and sent him flying. "Surrender now and I will spare you."
Niro got back up and looked at Blue Buffalo. "Why are you attacking me? What do you want from me?"
"I was ordered to capture or destroy the Second Komyoji design android Kikaider 02. It's nothing personal, but that's all the reason I have and need to destroy you."
Blue Buffalo let loose another pair of missiles from his horns at the android, and he dodged them again, but he still wasn't fast enough to outrun the explosion behind him. Niro charged at the mechanical beast trying to punch him, but Blue Buffalo swatted him away as if he were a fly sending Niro flying into another tree. Mitsuko ran to the battlefield after watching this. She knew that there was no possible way that Niro could win this fight unless he unleashed his true fighting power. Niro got up again and saw his mother. "What are you doing here?! It's way too dangerous!"
"You can't win as you are now! There are two switches on your shoulders! Hit them with your hands and give the command to change!"
Blue Buffalo charged at Niro again and hit him, but not before Niro heard his mother's instructions. "Err...Okay. Let's give it a shot."
Niro placed his left hand on his right shoulder and vice versa. "CHANGE! 02!!"
Soon Niro was emitting a light blue light from his body. His eyes then went from the way they are to white to orange. Then the artificial flesh and clothes that had covered his body began to flake off and fall off his body, revealing a light blue proto form with orange eyes and a 02 belt. Suddenly, there were white rings around the arms and legs that traveled onward, leaving the right side of his body blue and the left side red. Once the energy met in the middle, it revealed an orange-eyed robot with his face divided into blue and red halves and from the brow to the top of his head showed a clear casing exposing electrical circuitry and metal. On his chest was a V-like set of casing exposing circuitry that ran from the chest to the shoulders and met in the back the same way. The stomach was divided into the same red and blue halves, but starting at the tip of the V-like casing were two red lined that went downward and to the side in a curve of each half. His left arm was red, and his right arm was blue, but each had hands with yellow fingers, yellow cuffs with light blue panels inside of them, and the upper halves of the arms were casing exposing more computer parts. The legs were also separately colored to match the arms on the same side, but they also had yellow lines that went down and inward from the side to the knees at the upper half and down and outward to the ankles at the lower half. This was the full transformation into his android form: Kikaider 02.
"This is...the real me?"
02 then looked at Blue Buffalo and got into a fighting stance. "Okay Blue Buffalo! Show me what you've got!"
