Chap 48: mysterious man
After finishing the lady in charge, the base was largely without anyone stopping the duo Kamen rider from wrecking the evil base. Jumping down through the hole they make, Ichigo and Nigou landed in a superhero pose, with one knee hiting the ground causing a crack to form beneath their feet before quickly investigating the base.
The two split into two, Ichigo went ahead to take a look in their computer system for anything usefull while Nigou would go capture any henchmen or scientist that were left behind for the government forces to arrived and arrest them.
Soon enough the aftermath was cleaned up as the base was covered by military helicopter and military vehicles blocking the road from civilian people getting inside.
All the document was burn or taken away, every personnel that was caught working for S.H.O.C.K.E.R was detained for further questioning about their crimes.
"Thanks for your help again. Ichigo, Nigou." Spoken in a greatfull maner, a woman dress in goverment attire give express her attitude after the exchange information of the base betweem the riders.
"No probs, Tachibana." Nigou said, back to her human form, "we'll be heading out now."
"Oh, before you go. I got something we found." She reach out her hand holding a USB drive like object.
"What this ?"
"It hold the confidential information the Anti shocker unit was able to find, the C.I.A also decode some of their intelligence. It's all in there."
"Thanks." Ichigo takes it and give her friend a thanks, appreciating for the help. As the agent known as Tachibana stay behind with the army and special forces, Ichigo and Nigou leaves the place, driving away on their bikes. Another day for the two rider came to an peacefull end.
------------
"It's peacefull, don't you think ?" Ichika said, taking a long sip of coffee.
The two have taken a rest at their favorate coffee shop after each fight, being able to relax is also a commodity. Sure they are cyborg now, no need for sleep or food but that's no reason to not cherish the human aspect in their normal lives.
They both sat at near the back of the shop, it was cozy for this time of the year. Through none of the girls can be affected by the weather, it was the vibe it bring that counts.
"That's why we need to stop them. For the peace of this world and those that live in it." Souko then went on a lecture to her about humanity and their values. Which only help bored the woman, she stared out the window while her friend is busy with working.
"So finding out what inside of that thing yet ?" She ask, hand gesturing to Souko who is still fildling with the USB.
"It's not that easy you know, i only did this a couple of time. Now stop talking, i need to concentrate." She said, before turning to continue with her holographic screen that only she and Ichika can see.
"Good thing i pick us this spot then." Sitting at the back means they won't get bothered by anyone, beside the usual waiter.
After enough time passes, Souko comb through all the information they need. All that's left was a couple of files, Souko read through some and see one file that was named: Neo
"Is it anything importain ?"
"I don't know, there isn't much in here. They only said it was a weapon of sort. From what i can gather it's some sort of human experiment."
"Tell me somethibg i don't know." By now it's a given that S.H.O.C.K.E.R have a thing for turning human in to living bio weapon. Prime example being Souko and Ichika themself.
The two left not too long later, followed by a shadow from a third person. Ichika felt it the moment it hit her, and judging from the looks on Souko face, she must also feel it as well.
That connection only a rider can have, they both turn around to glance behind, with anticipation. The two were ready in case an suprise attack happened.
The road they're on have too many civilian around to effectivly attack, they would got caught in the cross fire. The two make calculation inside their head of what could go wrong and were looking for the most optimal way to handle this situation.
The shadowy figure wore a straight jacket, loose fitting pants, he could be an normal person from the outside but it only take one look for them to see what he is underneath.
They sped up, with him following at a distance. They stopped once the two reach some place that have no one around.
Watching him exit the vehicle, they watch Takune hop off his Neo cyclone, of black and green color similar to Souko and Ichika bike. Only when he got off did then, the both of the girl got off their own bike.
Walking with a certain uncanny that isn't a human but trying to mimic one instead. Each foot he take has a unnormal weight to it as he step down to the fool.
He look normal without his helmet, a blank face showing no emotion. This was when they knew, they had to fight him.
Through a cautious way Ichika used her super sense to check the outside of the place.
'No one.' Her eyes met Souko, skaking her head. Her worrying was calmed by the focus of her friend.
"This is the first."
"Yeah, i'm not quite sure what to make of this."
Never once was there an male rider make by S.H.O.C.K.E.R, sure there were plenty of augmented people that are a male. But a rider, not once.
Souko was shocked, she can't imagine that they were so cruel to send a men through what she been. Narrowing her eyes, Souko din't want to fight him, but to know more about this man situation she have to do something.
Ichika were less concern with the 'how' and already prepared to jump into action in case things go wrong. Which in her line of work, that is usually the case.
Two girls exchange a glance, then both look at him. They all know what will happen next.
All three raise their arm up with belt manifested around their waist. As the wind flow through, a storm picked up just from their transformation. Their force colide for a clash.
