I do not own Kamen Rider Drive or Sword Art Online


Engine 2: What is a Kamen Rider?

Sosuke idly sat at one of the stools while eating milk duds, which really helps him think. Right now, he's at a bar called Dicey Cafe or whatever it's called. After telling both Kiriko and Mr. Belt that the investigation wasn't over yet, he told them that it was just a feeling and he left the Drive Pit just to think. Of course they demanded, actually Kiriko, what he had meant by that, Sosuke didn't tell them, for now, in search of a new hiding spot from Kiriko so she won't find and cuff him. He does find that a bit annoying to him but hey, what're you gonna do?

When he came into the bar, he was greeted by the owner, who looked oddly familiar to him, as he simply waved in a lazy fashion and said "hello" to him before sitting on one of the stools.

'I transformed... and drove my engine. Plus I defeated a monster. But I somehow just can't seem to move forward.' Sousuke thought before scratching his hair while he was unsure if he could take up the role that Mr. Belt offered him. "I guess I'll stop thinking about it for now." he then got into a relaxing position.

"Think about what?" Sosuke looked to see a well built African American man with brown eyes and a goatee. He wore a white shirt and has two silver earrings on the left ear.

"Nothing much but..." Sosuke looked at the man. "Do I know you? Because you look familiar."

"I get that alot..." the bartender shrugged. Sosuke stared at the man, trying to remember past people me met so far... until he was mentally whacked with a mallet that said 'Remember dammit!' on it.

"Wait... aren't you Agil from Sword Art Online who convinced those players on the 1st floor to not hate the Beta Testers?" Sosuke assumed.

"In the flesh. But my name's Andrew in real life." the man dubbed Andrew answered.

"I knew ya looked familiar. I was there on the 1st floor before defeating the boss." Sosuke said.

"Really? So you were there huh?" Andrew said. Honestly, he'd never thought that an SAO survivor, who he never met, would come here for the first time.

"Yeah... I was also there when the Black Swordsman told those players that he cheated on the Beta Test on SAO." Sosuke said, recalling that time.

"I thought you looked familiar. Would you like something?" Andrew offered.

"I'll have a soda. Not actually that hungry"

"Alright. Coming up."

After Sosuke got his soda, he heard the sound of the door opening.

"Hey Andrew." A young man sat down next to Sosuke at the stools.

"Hey Kazuto." Andrew greeted, which caught Sosuke's attention. He looked to his right to see a young man sitting next to him, he had black hair, matching eyes and light skin. "Usual?"

"Yeah." the young man nodded before he noticed Sosuke staring at him with a surprised look. "Can I help you...?"

"You're THE Kirito, also known as the Black Swordsman." the teen detective said while Andrew placed the two drinks in front of them.

"Yeah. And who are you?" the black haired boy asked.

"You probably don't remember me." Sosuke said. "Sosuke Tomari. Like you; I'm an SAO survivor."

"I see. In that case..." Kazuto shook Sosuke's hand. "Kirito, nice to meet you in real life Engine."

"Same here." the two lets go of each other hands and took a sip of their drinks.

"I can't help but notice... are you a cop?" Kazuto asked after noticing Sosuke's appearance.

"Yeah. And believe it or not, I'm also a school boy at the same time and it's difficult doing both police business and attending school." Sosuke answered.

"From the way you say it. That sounds hard." Kazuto remarked.

"It's harder than you think and harder than it looks." the teen detective sighed before taking a sip of his soda.

"I see. Well then...at least it beats being stuck in SAO. Though this is real life and people still die, anyway." Kazuto said.

"While it is true that many people died in the game, I'd like to think there were times where even you and I were had a little bit of fun in that world. I mean sure it was a living hell for all of us, but I was able to find a little bit of joy in there with my friends." Sosuke said.

"There is a lot of truth to that." Kazuto agreed, remembering some of the fun times he had inside the game. To be more specific, he mainly enjoyed his time with Asuna when they were alone together for most of the time.

"Come on you two, that's all behind us now." Andrew spoke. "We should be enjoying the here and now."

"Yeah, you're right." Kazuto smiled and nodded.

"Anyway, what's your name?" Andrew asked looking at the teen officer.

"Huh?" Sosuke blinked.

"Your name? You never told us what it was." he reminded him

"In that case it's Sosuke Tomari." the teen detective introduced.

"Well then Sosuke, it's nice to meet you. I'm Kazuto Kirigaya." Kazuto said.

"Likewise..." Sosuke said as they exchanged handshakes.

"So tell us...how did someone as young as you manage to be a cop?" Andrew asked.

"Well..." Sosuke trailed when the door suddenly flung open making the guys look only to see his partner. "How'd she find me!?"

"There you are!" Kiriko said, marching over to Sosuke as she cuffed him.

"H-Hey...! Do you seriously have to do this every time you find me!?" Sosuke exclaimed. This is seriously embarrassing! Especially when he's making new friends, too!

"Then you shouldn't have left base like that! Now come on, we're going back." she said before looking at Andrew. "I'm sorry for interrupting your business."

"N-No, you're not bothering anyone here. Uh...would you care to have a drink or something?" he politely offered.

"No thank you. I'm only here for my partner, who should be working on a case with us right now!" Kiriko said, forcefully dragging Sosuke by the cuffs.

"Hey, Kiriko...! C'mon, let me go!" Sosuke begged.

"No! We're going back!"

And just like that they left the bar.


(Elsewhere)

A bunch of guys were talking about pawning items while Heart and Zoruku went up to the red car the guys were leaning on.

One of them noticed them and turned to face them.

"Who the heck are you two supposed to be?" one of them asked, rudely.

"We're going to visit a friend." Heart said to them.

"So would you kindly give us your car?" Zoruku added.

Moments later that guys were sent flying towards the wall of a random building as a Gravity Surge had just occurred. Heart and Zoruku got in the car and began to drive off to find their friend.

"You know, I was pretty surprised when I saw you move normally when I activated a Gravity Surge on you at first." Heart remarked to his hooded friend.

"You could say I am a man of many mysteries." Zoruku said.

"True. But for now…where did my friend's "soul" run off this time?" Heart wondered with a knowing smirk.

"He must be causing trouble for the humans, knowing him." Zoruku smirked too.

(Drive Pit)

"Ya know, you don't have to force me to come back! You could've just called!" Sosuke said while he was sitting on a pile of tires and four Shift Cars were cornering him.

"It was your own fault for suddenly walking out in the first place. So take responsibility and help us out." Kiriko said.

"The Shift Cars were built solely to protect humanity. As you can see, Justice Hunter takes great pride in that." Mr. Belt said as the mini police car made its noise.

"Plus there are more of them out there, too. Their mission is to gather as much information on our enemy as much as possible." Kiriko added.

"You are already aware of the Roidmude, so I only ask for assistance to help us defeat them." Mr. Belt said.

"As much as I want to help, I'm not sure I can." Sosuke said looking at Mr. Belt. In all honesty, he does want to help them get rid of these robots, but there are some things that do concern him.

"Why...?" asked Mr. Belt.

"For starters, you share the same power as those guys, right? It is obvious due to the power you hold that all of it comes from the same source." Sosuke explained while walking towards Tridoron.

"True. We do share the same power source." Mr. Belt admitted.

"Well whatever, there's somewhere I have to be right now." Sosuke said as he was about to leave the room.

"Tomari-san..." Kiriko began making the teen stop to look at her when she reached for his hand, took it, and placed a metal slot holder in his hand that seemed to have resemble seatbelt buckles. "This is the Shift Car Holder. Take this and make sure to keep it with you."

"Yeah, I got it." Sosuke said accepting the holder and left the Pit.


(Local Restaurant)

A man with short brown hair, wearing a pair of glasses and a green suit along with a pair of gray pants merely sat in his seat, calmly drinking his tea as he wore an annoyed slight irritated look. "Heart. You really are an incautious show-off." he said while Heart and Zoruku are near the table where the man is at.

"Greet me with a smile sometimes, Brain." Heart said before he sat down while Zoruku pulled up a chair.

"Never mind that, who is that man with you?" Brain questioned.

"Allow me to introduce you to Zoruku." Heart gestured to the hooded man. "Strangely, I don't know him and yet he can move in the Heaviness without the need of one of our Roidmude bodies."

"A pleasure to meet you Brain." Zoruku did a courtesy bow.

He can move in the Heaviness!?" Brain exclaimed, surprised by that fact.

"Surprising… yes." Heart chuckled a bit.

"Let's get down to buisness. I gave No. 029 a new body, but it appears that he disappeared from our grasp." Zoruku explained.

"Yes. So do you mind helping us look for him please." Heart finished with a smile.

Brain, despite that he's got suspision's and a distrust for Zoruku, tapped his glasses and once he did, someone's I-Pad went haywire.

"Huh? What's with this app?" the man holding his I-Pad wondered.

"Eh? What's going on?" a girl with him asked while Brain looks back at the man's I-Pad, which is showing a map of the city.

"This app just suddenly…" tha man uttered while a red dot appeared on the screen.

"Found him." Brain looks back at Heart and Zoruku.

"And from the looks of it, he'll be reviving soon." Zoruku commented.

"That is very true." Heart chuckled.

(Office Room)

A black car about the same size as the Shift Cars themselves was rolling along on a desk and spotted a computer in front it. It went over to the keyboards and made its way up to the screen, once it did the car sent an electric pulse to the machine turning it on. As the computer turned on it was searching through various files of people that it seemed interested in. And then a little blue ball of light appeared from the computer and soon it became the Cobra-Type Roidmude No. 029 is now fully revived.

The Cobra-Type let out a breath as he reverted back into his human form of Masuda Nobuo. He briefly looked down at his hands and arms just to get a feel for his body again to see that if there any problems. Luckily, there wasn't so with that he put on his hood and left the room to continue where he left off before that kid officer did away with him and his comrades.


(Hospital)

Sosuke was now at the roof of a hospital as he was visiting an old friend who happens to be an older man with black hair and matching eyes, he's wearing a black jacket with green strips and gray pants. His name is Akira Hayase.

"Ow ow ow!" Hayase complained after he fell down the rail, Sosuke quickly got the wheelchair and went towards Akira.

"You okay?" Sosuke asked while helping the older guy up.

"Yeah, sorry." Hayase said before he was placed back onto the wheelchair.

"Don't push yourself Hayase-san." Sosuke said.

Hayase is a police officer who heard about a teenage cop, Sosuke, at the Special Investigation department so he went there to meet him and after a little meet and greet between the two, he started to show Sosuke the ropes. The two went on a case which was dangerous, Sosuke didn't take no for an answer that time, and when he was cornered one out of two criminals and a flammable generator, Sosuke panicked and grabbed one of the two criminals hand gun and tried to shoot the crook cornering Hayase. But sadly, the Global Freeze happened that time and due to the Heaviness, the teenage cop accidentally shot the generator, causing it to explode and in the process, causing some pipes to collapse. Sosuke tried to save Hayase from the falling pipes, the Heaviness effect happened once again, causing the young policeman to be unable to save Akira from being crushed, leading Sosuke to lose his motivation as a police officer.

"Thanks." Hayase said while looking at his bandaged leg and sighed. "It's been six months when I started my psychical rehabilitation, and this the best I can manage so far. Not very much if I say so myself. On the other hand, the doctors say I'm doing better than most. I suppose that's enough to keep my spirits high."

"Even so, they'll never let you back into the force." Souske began with a brief sad expression. "And it was all my fault, too. I was the one who fired that gun that day. Regardless of the Heaviness, it was still a risky shot to begin with in the first place. I thought I had it...but now I can't forgive myself for being so arrogant."

Unbeknownst to them, Mr. Belt was actually listening on their conversation using the body of Type Speed to freely move around and about.

"Sosuke..." he uttered.

"My dad was a cop." Sosuke began thinking about his father. "He always said that an officer carries the heaviest burden of responsibilities. But..."

"But nothing." Hayase spoke. "Find something else to be responsible for, and carry those responsibilities that come with it."

"Eh?" Sosuke turned to look at his friend.

"I was once a cop too, you know. So instead of feeling bad for me, why not concentrate on protecting the people in my place?" Hayase smirked at the young detective.

"Hayase..."

The man simply grinned before reaching into his pocket to take out one of his pain medications. When he took it out the wind suddenly came and blew it out of his hand as it fell onto the floor. Sosuke immediately went over to the wrapper and picked it up.

"Thanks." Hayase said as Sosuke observed the wrapper getting an odd sense of deja vu for some reason. "Those are painkillers the doctors gave me. You know, for when my body starts to get bad."

Sosuke then began to recall the events that happened during the case as 029's voice replayed itself in his mind.

'Well, don't you look like a lively one now.'

"That's it!" Sosuke said.

"Eh?" blinked Hayase.

"My brain is in top gear...!" Sosuke claimed while fixing his tie.


(Special Case Department)

"Another victim turned red but it was at the model agency this time!" Kiriko told Jun, Kyu, Rinna and Genpachiro, while they were having a meeting about the case.

"Masuda that bastard!" Genpachiro was about to leave the room until the door opened and Sosuke came in. Sosuke went towards the board and Kirko noticed on important thing about him.

"He's in gear!" Kiriko noticed while the teenage detective re-did the board, he placed pictures of the victims together before grabbing a red marker and circled them. He then grabbed the picture that Genpachiro had and placed it separate from them circling that one too, and then drew a line to link them.

"Sosuke, what the hell are you doing?" Genpachiro said.

"It was a mistake to assume these were murder attempts when they were actually people who got rejected." Sosuke used the marker to circle around Masuda Nobuo. "Masuda Nobuo here was actually chosen and the real culprit took and captured his face."

"So you mean he's after people's bodies?" Rinna asked.

"Correct. The culprit is searching for a perfect healthy human body. Those left behind at the scene of the crimes were all misses. That red skin is the mark of their failiure." Sosuke explained.

"W-W-Why do you know that?" Kyu was surprised to see how far Sosuke has gotten into the investigation.

Sosuke pulled out the two bags of paper. "The trash near the victims the day before yesterday. They were both medicine packets. The first was from cold medicine while the second was part of a packet of allergy medication." he explained.

"So that means anyone who wasn't in a good condition is left behind." Kiriko said going over to the pictures of the victims. "So those were the victims?"

"What we thought was a serial attempted murder case is actuall just the remnants of kidnappings! If we ignore it, more people will get abducted!" Sosuke said.

"Wait a moment." Genpachiro went up the Sosuke. "When one of the victims woke up, he said his girlfriend who was there with him had gone missing."

"Alright. Gen-san, can you investigate missing person cases from last week?" Sosuke asked.

"You're just a kid, so don't give me orders!" Genpachiro said before leaving.

"I'll sift through the rumors on the net to see if anything pops." Kyu said.

"We need to find where he's hiding himself." Sosuke pointed out.

"Likely somewhere near Masuda Nobuo-san's residence." Kiriko added.

"That's it! It's time to wheel out one of my machines!" Rinna cheered before she lightly pushed Kiriko next to Sosuke. "If the culprit is causing Gravity Surges, there must be a place where there's been many of them."

"You're talking about the the lame doohickey?" Sosuke asked, recalling the device. "Beggars can't be choosers." he left the room.

"Don't call them lame!" Rinna cried before leaving the room.

"Oh my… this team is unexpectedly amazing when they need to be.' Jun remarked with a smile while twirling his pen.


(Drive Pit)

Sosuke got into the Tridoron and buckled up.

"Sosuke. It seems our argument is over." Mr. Belt said.

"Why do you say so?" the teenage cop asked.

"I saw the exchange between you and Former policeman Hayase via this Shift Car." the belt explained while the Type Speed moved around a bit before it hopped into a slot near Mr. Belt.

Sosuke noticed his partner outside the car.

"Kiriko?"

"Well now, let's go!" Mr. Belt smiled.

Soon, Tridoron's headlights lit up and it lifted up Sosuke and Kiriko, who got in the car earlier.

"Let's trust in the investigative abilities of your comrades, the Shift Cars and the Special Cases Department." Mr. Belt said and it wasn't long until they were outside the building. Tridoron then took off.


Sosuke and everyone else in the Special Investigation Team were looking for clues and hints to look for the Roidmude's location, as they were making phone calls, interviewing people, and trying to find more clues should he happen to slip in the spur of the moment. Unfortunately, they haven't found anything yet and are still searching for whereabouts as to what the Roidmude will strike next or is hiding.

The young detective himself was still searching for clues about said target.

"Man, we still haven't found anything yet. This guy is a good hider, I'll give him that much." Sosuke commented to himself.

"Sosuke...?" a familiar voice said making the teen officer look to see Kazuto sitting at a cafe across from him.

"Kazuto?" blinked Sosuke not expecting to see the famous black swordsman of Sword Art Online.

"I thought it was you." Kazuto said.

"Y-Yeah..." Sosuke nodded.

"You out on a case or something?" Kazuto asked. It would be obvious, since the guy's still in his work clothes.

"I am. My partner and I found some new clues and came up with new theories to what the culprit's true intentions are." Sosuke said. Though he needs to be careful what he says, for this is still police business. Plus, a Roidmude is involved in this making things much more dangerous for civilians and even officers alike.

"I see. Well then, sorry for tang your time." the other teen said.

"No, don't worry about it." Sosuke said. "Anyway, not that it's any of my business or anything, but what are you doing here by yourself? Are you waiting to meet with a friend or something?"

"Something like that..." Kazuto said, looking the other direction before smiling at the person who he waited for.

Sosuke turns his head to look at the direction of whoever Kazuto was waiting for. And once he gazed at the said person, he was surprised to see that it was a girl around their ages with long brunette hair and matching eyes. She wore a light blue shirt with white frills, blue skirt, and carried a purse. This is Asuna Yuuki or better known as sub-leader of a guild called Knight of the Blood, a group who would go the distance to clearing SAO when they were all still trapped inside that virtual world.

"Kirito-kun!" waved Asuna, smiling at her boyfriend as she walked over to him. "Sorry I'm late. There are some things I had to take care of at home first before coming here."

"It's okay." Kazuto said.

Asuna smiled before taking notice of Sosuke, who just looked at them back and forth obviously confused.

"Who's your friend, Kirito-kun?" Asuna asked.

"This is Sosuke Tomari." Kazuto introduced.

"Hello. It's very nice to meet you." Sosuke said with a polite bow.

"We actually met a few hours ago back at the Dicey Cafe, so we actually know each other on a personal level. But from what I can tell so far, he's a decent enough guy to me. Oh, and he's a survivor of the game too." he told her.

"Whoa are you for real?" Asuna said, surprised. It was rare to meet other survivors of SAO now and days, since the game ended for about almost a year.

"Y-Yes." Sosuke nodded. Even though he survived the game, just thoughts about it makes him feel uneasy still.

"Well anyway, we're a little behind schedule for our date. So we'll just see you whenever." Kazuto said walking besides his girlfriend.

"Yeah. Good to see you." Sosuke said knowing he needs to get back to work. When he was about to leave Kazuto's voice reached his ears.

"Hey, Sosuke!" he called out making him stop to look back at the other boy. "Let's meet online sometime whenever you're free."

Sosuke looks a little surprised to hear this as he stares at the black haired teen. There were thoughts running through his head before immediately shaking it off knowing that'll distract him from his main objective. However, he couldn't but nod and respond.

"Yeah." he nodded before watching the pair leave. "Go back to the virtual world again, huh?" It was then that he noticed a local gaming store not too far from where he was at right now. He took a minute to collect his thoughts before coming up with an answer. "Maybe...it's time I should get over my worries and gain the confidence to go back again."

Sometime after the talk with Kazuto and meeting his girlfriend, the teen detective went into the store and bought the Amusphere. He walked back to Tridoron as Kiriko ran towards him.

"Tomari-san!" she cried. "I just got off the phone and learned that Masuda Nobou is at the amusement park!"

"The amusement park?" he pondered before realizing the answer. "It's closed today, that's right!"

"Let's hurry!"


Once they got to the amusement park, Sosuke and Kiriko noticed a sign saying that they were going to be closed for a couple of days due to some repairs and technical difficulties that needs to be taken care of. It was perfect in their favor because there won't be any witnesses to see Sosuke transform, or fight the Cobra-Type Roidmude.

The two officers hide behind a stack of barrels as they noticed a merry-go-round that a long piece of blue cloth over it. They went towards the ride and Sosuke removed the cloth to see the missing people.

"The kidnapped people…" Sosuke uttered before he and Kiriko checked two peoples pulses. "Good, they're still alive."

"You're here to take back the humans?" a familiar voice said, catching the two's attention.

"That voice… I knew you were still alive, you damn monster!" Sosuke removed the rest of the cloth and he and Kiriko were surprised to see that the girl who they're going to rescue is standing across from them, but quickly realized that it was the Roidmude.

"I don't care. They're not necessary anymore. I've taken their individual parts and incorporated them into my body." He then changes back into his Masuda Nobuo form. "The face of that man…The hair of that woman." He gestured to both before turning back into his female form. "My body is amazing!" before he turned into the Cobra-Type Roidmude and he was covered in red electricity before his body suddenly changed into something else. His body became all purple with iron gauntlets on his forearms.

"He evolved!?" Sosuke said in a surprised tone before the Iron Roidmude show out pink energy and then a Gravity Surge occurred afterwards.


(With Kazuto and Asuna)

"Crap! A Heaviness!" Kazuto exclaimed through the Gravity Surge

"I really hate that!" Asuna remarked while she was trying to move.


(With Genpachiro, Rinna and Kyu)

"This again?" Genpachiro said while he was driving a police car in slow motion.

"See! You see! This!" Rinna pointed out the obvious, just to make the older officer believe in the Heaviness.

"It's not true! I don't believe in it!" Genpachiro denied.

"What a stubborn guy…" Kyu remarked in the Gravity Surge.


(Restaurant)

"Oh?" Zoruku said, amused. "It looks our friend has awakened."

"Indeed. And he's awakened a considerable power, too." Brain added.

"Shall we go say 'hello' to our newest friend?" Heart stood up from his seat and transformed into his Roidmude form.

In his place is a humanoid, bulky red cybernetic machine, with a metal chest shaped as a heart and his actual said 'organ' is colored gold making it very obvious that has to bee his weakness from what Zoruku could see. On his shoulders are heart shaped shoulder guards, and his seemed almost skeletal with two golden horns sticking out.

Brain simply stood from his own seat and transformed as well. He was now mostly green with silver armored body parts that were mostly designed after the said organ itself. His shoulder guards are shaped as brains and behind them are two green cape-like streams running down his back. And overall, his head is shaped as a brain.

'Interesting forms. Not bad, not bad at all...' Zoruku thought with a pleasant smirk before joining them.

Brain simply took the iPad on the table behind him and Heart flicked one guy's forehead pushing him away. Afterwards they all left the building to greet their new comrade.


(Amusement Park)

"I should go find some more humans. That way I could attain further perfection!" the Iron Roidmude declared before leaving the amusement park.

It took awhile for the Shift Car's power to kick in...but fortunately, Sosuke and Kiriko were able to move at normal speeds again.

"We can't let him go into the city!" Sosuke exclaimed.

"After him!" Kiriko said.

Sosuke started running after the Roidmude until energy blasts came out of nowhere preventing him from moving any further. He looks to see 093 and 071.

"He had more allies!?" Sosuke grimaced thinking he had destroyed whatever accomplices the Iron Roidmude had.

The two Roidmude charged towards Sosuke as he tried to fight back, however the two robotic beings were far superior to him in strength and agility making it easy for them overtake the teen detective. Sosuke was sent rolling on the ground as the two were about to finish him off, until Tridoron came to his aid shooting them away from him.

Sosuke quickly ran towards Tridoron while the 071 jumped in the air, sprouting his wings out as 093 leaped up to grab his legs before the Bat Type followed behind the Iron Roidmude.

Meanwhile, Sosuke grabbed Mr. Belt from inside Tridoron as the belt looked at him.

"Are you ready, Sosuke?" Mr. Belt asked.

"I'm the only one who can chase after those guys. So that means I've got no other choice, right?" Sosuke said with a determined look and placed the belt around his waist. "I'm still an officer...And I'm chasing him for someone else too!" And with that he put the car in drive as he went after the Roidmudes.

"Good! Start Your Engine!"

The hollow sector of Tridoron opened as Sosuke grabbed Type Speed and placed it onto the brace.

"Henshin!"

Sosuke inserted the Shift Car into the Shift Brace and pushed the lever before the teen detctive did a thumbs up before putting his hand back on the wheel.

"DRIVE: TYPE SPEED!"

He transformed from within inside the car as the wheel mysteriously attached itself onto his chest.

Drive is now on pursuit!

Drive proceeded to chase the enemy down and began to shoot them with the headlights. The Iron Roidmude seemed to notice and then it began to knock every nearby car to create a blockade.

"Crap!" Drive cursed as he turned the wheel to evade every car that came his way. He could've just went through the cars to make the chase easier but he's worried that people might get hurt and he's a police officer so that means that he has to make sure that he doesn't crash into cars for safety reasons.

The Iron Roidmude growled and ran towards a parking lot building and started to climb the walls. Drive could see the Bat-Type Roidmude flying inside and Drive himself was already driving inside said building. It dropped the Spider-Type above a truck and said Roidmude opened the truck and let out a bunch of metal barrels. Once that happened Drive was trying to avoid them while mentally cursing at them, and the Bat-Type proceeded to fire his finger bullets at him.

Drive managed to evade every blast that was coming to him and the explosions were pretty slow too. As Drive continued to chase them down unknowingly to him, the Iron Roidmude was above him and smashed the ground as a bunch of rubble fell on Tridoron.

Drive grunted a bit. "They're going too far!"

"Let's strengthen Tridoron with the tires!" Mr. Belt advised before the three Shift Cars glowed on the slots inside the car as they automatically came off and flew into Tridoron's rear.

"MAX FLARE!"

"FUNKY SPIKE!"

"MIDNIGHT SHADOW!"

"TIRE EXTENSION!"

Soon Tridoron's tires became enhanced with the same tires that would usually come attached to Drive's chest and then with its newfound power; Tridoron came bursting out of the ruble.

The Iron Roidmude was about to go back to do what he was going to do until, to his surprise, Tridoron was going towards and the car jumped above the hole that he made, but the Iron Roidmude jumped out of the building.

Drive continued to drive up the roof where the Bat-Type waited for him and continued to shoot its bullets from the skies. He was carrying the Spider-Type too.

"Let's go!" Drive announced.

"Go! Tridoron!" commanded Mr. Belt as Midnight Shaodw and Funky Spike tires began to shoot their respective attacks. The Shurikens targeted at the Spider-Type while the spikes made contact with the Bat-Type as both were frozen up in the air. Max Flare's wheel began to ignite in flames as Tridoron became enveloped in fire as Drive targeted at the two Roidmudes and then smashed them.

Tridoron landed on the ground.

"Just that muscled bastard left." Drive said turning around and ran over the Roidmude Cores destroying them.


In the City everyone was still experiencing the Heaviness as they hardly move a muscle.

"Damn..." a black haired girl grimaced as she was on her phone. "Why does this have to happen now of all times!? I really hate this Heaviness business!"

Kazuto and Asuna were enjoying their date until the said phenomenon suddenly occurred ruining their day together. It literally sucked that this to happened now of all times. The black haired teen found it quite odd an interesting that there's something out there able to time to slowdown the fragments of time itself, since he is into technology and other stuff relating to it. Once he heard about the Slowdown, he thought it a was just some kind of public lie or something and brushed it off. But when it happened a few times, he started to believe in it.

The Iron Roidmude slowly paced around the area as he looked for humans that were suitable to his taste. He saw a few interesting ones that seem to be perfect, but alas, he can only take at least one or two humans at a time now that his comrades were destroyed by that unsettling looking guy. So he glanced at a black haired girl wearing a pair of glasses and thought she looked interesting enough to be a beautiful enough for his perfection.

"You look splendid. Come with me." he said approaching the girl.

(Kamen Rider Drive OST: Surprise Drive)

"Were you raised in a barn or something?" Drive spoke as he rested a hand on his hip while the other leaned on Tridoron's hood for support. "That's no way to ask a lady for company."

"You!?" the Iron Roidmude charged towards Drive as the Rider blocked his incoming punch before using his forearm to defend against another incoming punch. However this was short lived as the Roidmude landed a direct hit against his abdomen as he staggered backwards.

Drive avoided crouched down and grabbed the Roidmude by the legs, lifting him up, and slamming him against one of the tables. The Iron Roidmude quickly stood on his feet and launched a punch towards Drive, as his fist suddenly extended like rubber as he tried to hit the race car themed warrior. He dodged each attack before the Roidmude shifted his attention to a pillar, then punched it as it slowly was about to fall towards the girl, who the Iron Roidmude wanted to take along with...

"Kazuto...!? Asuna!?" Drive gaped seeing the two here. "I gotta act now!"

"SP-SP-SPEED!"

Drive quickly hurried over to the civilians along with his new friends as he rapidly punches the pillar into pieces. Once that was done he exchanged Type Speed for Shadow.

"TIRE KOUKAN: MIDNIGHT SHADOW!"

As his purple shuriken wheel attached onto his chest, Drive engaged the Iron Roimude in combat. Drive manage to push the Iron Roidmude back as he punned him in the gut making the Roidmude hit the wall behind punched the Iron Roidmude away from him as he pulled the lever thrice.

"SH-SH-SHADOW!"

Two purple shuriken energy projectiles appeared in his palms as he threw them at his opponent.

(End song)

The Iron Roidmude raised his fists up in the air before he transformed his hands to make him slightly larger and he punched the air before he charged at his oponent. Drive deflected a punch, but the Iron Roidmude punched Drive in the chest, making some sparks come off and the Rider blocked another hit before he ducked and evaded another from the Iron Roidmude. The Roidmude then knocked Drive away, making the latter roll to the ground.

"He's on a completely different level than the monster before!" Drive grimaced.

"Block his movements!" Mr. Belt advised before Drive got up.

"I know someone perfect for that." Drive commented before he geard the sound of a police car. "Here he comes." he said as Justice Hunter was seen driving towards the Iron Roidmude before it went under him, which caused said Roidmude to fall down after he tried to hit it and then the Shift Car went towards Drive. "Having a patrol car for backup is a relief. Okay Hunter, let's go for a ride." Placing Hunter on the Shift Brace, Drive pulled the lever.

"TIRE KOUKAN!"

Hunter's wheel came from Tridoron and attached on Drive's chest as it was red and matched perfectly with Drive's armor. Once attached, Drive carried metal jail cell-cage in his hand that is dubbed as the Justice Cage.

"JUSTICE HUNTER!"

Drive examined his new weapon and saw the Roidmude coming at him. Using the cage to block his heavy attack, Drive quickly figure out how it was used. "This is it?" Drive commented before he blocked a punch and spun around, thus making an opening then whacked the Iron Roidmude with the Justice Cage, making the latter fall and roll to the ground. Drive reared his arm back and threw Justice Cage over the Iron Roidmude's head , twisted the key and pulled the lever thrice.

"HU-HU-HUNTER!"

Justice Hunter spun around the Roidmude's head and rained cage poles around him, and then it grew over five times its size and made a complete cage over him. Once trapped inside the Iron Roidmude tried to bust out but got electrocuted as a result.

Drive twisted the key and pushed the button on the Shift Brace.

"HISSATSU!"

Drive pushed the lever.

"FULL THROTTLE: HUNTER!"

Tire projections manifested themselves in front of Drive as he positioned himself as the tires on both his sides smashed into him. Drive began to speed towards the other tires that made him go towards two other tires that were positioned upwards as he was now in the air, now traveling through other tires and going in a full circle, Drive reared his fist back and let out a battle cry as he extend his fist to the Iron Roidmude once the cage dissembled itself allowing him to deliver the final blow.

The Iron Roidmude turned around. "It can't be… You're a Kamen Rider!?"

Drive turned around and looked at the Iron Roidmude. "Kamen Rider?" questioned Drive before the Iron Roidmude exploded. Drive decided to ask about this later to either Kiriko or Mr. Belt. "This time I actually completed my first battle, Mr. Belt."

"Thank you, Sosuke. I ask you once again, will you help us fight the Roidmude. There are 108 in total." Drive and Mr. Belt watched the Roidmude Core explode. "Actually 103 since we already destroyed some."

Drive nodded before he went back towards the Tridoron. The Gravity Surge wore off and everything went back to normal.

Kazuto and Asuna eyed Drive as he went into his car before he drove away from the area.

"Wh-Who is that?" Asuna asked as she and her boyfriend watched the car drive away.

"I don't know..." Kazuto replied wondering the same thing himself. "I wonder...is he connected to the Heaviness and to those monsters as well?"

Neither of them had the answer to any of those questions, but then began to wonder if they should even be concerned about this since this is more than they can handle now that they're in the real world with no powers. If they were in a video game using their Avatars, then this scenario would be a whole lot different.


(With Zoruku, Heart, and Brain)

"Hmm...?" Heart pondered as he transformed back into his human form.

Brain seemed to have sensed whatever Heart had felt and reverted back into his human form as well, thus canceling the Slowdown.

"It seems as though our new friend is no longer of this world." Zoruku said.

"Yeah...seems like we won't be meeting him after all." Heart said, sounding disappointed.

"This is preposterous! He was a powerful and versatile Roidmude...! How could anyone have defeated him!?" Brain demanded.

"Someone does come to mind. And I think we're quite familiar about who it is, too." Heart said as he had idea of who defeated their new friend.

'And so do I.' Zoruku thought with a smirk.

Soon a guy riding a motorcycle rode into the area as he stopped his vehicle and took off his helmet. He was a young man around his early twenties with black messy hair and brown. He wore a purple biker outfit with silver studs, chains that connected together, black boots, and a skull ring on his right index finger.

"Chase is here." Heart said.

"Who is my target this time?" he asked.


(Special Cases Department)

"You rescued the people who were kidnapped…but how do I write this up on the report!?" Genpachiro said while he was trying to write a report on the case.

"More importantly…" Rinna suddenly puts her hands on Genpachiro's shoulders, thus making him accidently ruin the report. "…this story about the mysterious warrior who defeated the monster intrigues me." she finished as she sat at the table before Kyu joined them.

"Doesn't it, Rinna-san? I wish there was a picture…" Kyu complained.

"Ahh~ Guess this team is no good after all." Jun said as he was entering the room before getting his phone out. "In that case, I have to change my lucky color!"

Sosuke and Kiriko watched the scene before the former decided to ask his partner something.

"Hey, Kiriko. What's a Kamen Rider?" Sosuke asked.

"Eh?" Kiriko looked at the teen detective.

"The enemy called me that." he explained.

"A Roidmude called you a Kamen Rider?" said Kiriko and let out an unnoticeable small smile on her lips.

But not to Sosuke.

"Did you just smile-"

"I did not." Kiriko denied, going back to her regular self.

"You definitely smiled!"

"I did not!"

"You did!"

"Keep on like that and I'll arrest you!"

The two were unaware that Mr. Belt was watching from Sosuke's desk via Type Speed.

(Drive Pit)

"Not a bad name." Mr. Belt smiled while he was both watching and listening to the scene and decided to add another name to the Drive suit. "Kamen Rider… Drive!"
