Kapitel 11: The Innocent Runaway 4
Kamen Rider Build and the runaway Ryuga gazed up in astonishment at the colossal two-story machine composed of merged guardians. It had fashioned a body for itself, resembling a mech from a classic video game, with broad-set legs and a straightforward body and head unit. Numerous gatling guns and various weapons were mounted around its core, yet it lacked anything resembling arms.
"Well, this is pretty terrible..." Build lowered his weapon slightly as he looked up at the huge mech.
A glowing red orb-like lens, situated where its head would be, illuminated and zeroed in on the two diminutive creatures before it. The Gatling guns shifted, pivoting towards them and commenced firing!
Build swiftly shielded Ryuga from the barrage of bullets, maneuvering quickly to guide them both around the corner they had just cleared moments earlier. Their speed was just enough to keep ahead of the lethal torrent of lead pursuing them!
The Rider thrust Ryuga through the warehouse door they had exited earlier and hurled himself into a roll, swiftly pivoting to face the door as he tumbled. He used his left hand to propel his body up from the floor into a ready stance.
"Now, let's begin the experiment..."
He began to shake two bottles while Ryuga made his way toward the motorcycle he had come on. Miraculously, it had withstood the chaos of the fight inside the warehouse, still standing upright, balanced on its kickstand.
Ryuga plunked the helmet sitting on the seat onto his head, fired it up and started moving as fast as he could!
Build completed the shaking of his bottles and placed them into the twin fullbottle slots on his driver. Sequentially, two vibrant holographic images materialized. The first was orange, and the second, a bluish-silver. They assumed the forms of a monkey's head and a gem encircled by six tiny stars.
GORILLA! DIAMOND!
BEST MATCH!
"A best match?! Oh, yeah!"
Build was pleasantly surprised and pumped his right fist in celebration. He then brought that same hand down to the crank on his driver and began to turn it excitedly. As gears whirred, a set of runners, matching the color of the two bottles, began to emerge.
ARE YOU READY?!
If you could see under Build's helmet, you would have seen a massive grin spreading on his face.
"Build up!"
The two new armor pieces, now affixed to the runners, charged at each other with Build caught in the center. Steam and lights burst forth as the fresh armor segments melded with his existing suit. The former red and blue hues had given way to new shades of orange and silvery-blue. The diamond-like side shimmered and shone like a precious stone, whereas the orange took on a more subdued tone. His right hand was now enveloped in a colossal armor segment, resembling the forearm and hand of a gigantic ape.
The lenses of his helmet had also lightly changed shape to resemble the new motifs he was sporting.
The diamond side of his suit gleamed while his driver announced his new form.
THE DAZZLING DESTROYER!
GORILLAMOND! YEAH!
Build rushed back outside, scanning the surrounding area, devising a plan of attack.
The Kamen Rider observed a small bridge near a parkade. The top of the adjacent building was barricaded with a fence, yet directly aligned with the bridge below, there lay an abandoned SUV.
Several formulas superimposed on the area's topography in his mind, and Build conceived a plan for the next steps. He figured he knew exactly how to deal with the combined guardians.
Build lifted up his left hand and snapped his fingers as he decided to go with it.
"That's definitely the winning formula!"
Screeeeech!
As Build mused out loud to himself, Ryuga rode up on the dirt bike and skidded to a halt next to the Kamen Rider. He glanced back at the armored hero and patted the back seat, yelling, "Hurry up! Get on, man!"
The Kamen Rider tilted his head to look at Ryuga and then cocked back his huge right hand.
"Sorry, but I need you to go back!"
He pressed against the bike's rear fender with his large hand, causing Ryuga's head to jerk back as the bike surged forward. The force was so great that Ryuga clung to the handlebars for dear life. As a result, he inadvertently twisted the throttle, causing the bike to accelerate even more as he screamed in shock!
"AAAGGGHHH you asshoooooole!"
By now, the guardian machine had spotted them and was barreling towards them. It began firing at Ryuga as he raced across the bridge toward the entrance of the parkade. Bullets rained down on the bridge, and the colossal machine began its pursuit across as well.
"That crazy..." Ryuga raced through the building, tucking his body as closely as he could to the machine he was riding while bullets rebounded from all directions. Fortunately, the massive robot appeared to lack precise aim or a tracking system, and Ryuga had not been struck yet. However, given the sheer volume of gunfire, it seemed inevitable that he would eventually be hit.
This was all part of the shrewd Rider's plan.
The machine unleashed hundreds of rounds into the building, decimating all of the support pillars. Build had utilized Ryuga as bait to get the mech to demolish the building. Ryuga reached the far side and leaped from an opening onto the street below. Meanwhile, the mech, still blasting off rounds, had crossed two-thirds of the bridge; all of the damage had caused the parking structure to begin collapsing!
"Now!"
Build rushed forward and positioned himself at the far end of the bridge, anticipating the last element of his plan to fall into place. Quite literally. The SUV had surged through the fence and descended sharply, smashing into the bridge directly before the colossal machine!
As it did, the weight of the mech caused the bridge to act like a catapult, launching the Kamen Rider one hundred feet into the air!
As Build soared into the sky, his diamond aspect shimmered, and a brilliant light grew on his massive right fist.
"Hiiii Yaaaaaah!"
With a thunderous shout, the Rider descended upon his target.
The machine began to pivot in his direction, but it was already too late.
CRACK! BOOOOOM!
Build crashed directly through the core of the guardian mech, giant fist first, shattering its torso and triggering a series of explosive reactions!
There was nothing left of the guardian robot but scraps and smoldering rubble.
Build released his transformation and stowed his bottles in his trench coat pocket. After wandering for a few minutes, he found the gasping Ryuga, who was reclining against a wall. Both Ryuga and his stolen bike had endured, and he was presently taking a moment to catch his breath.
Sento gave the tired looking man a smile and started to ask him a few questions.
"Soooo...who's this girl you mentioned?"
Sento leaned against a nearby railing and waited for Ryuga's response.
Ryuga gave a pained smile back as he looked up at Sento and answered.
"Her name is Kasumi Ogura...love of my life..."
Ryuga pushed himself up into a standing position, looked at Sento in the eyes and continued explaining "That scientist...he's a massive douche for sure!..."
"Kasumi is the one who told me about the scientist that started this whole shit show...She sent me to the room he was killed in."
When Sento heard what Ryuga had to say he pushed himself up off of the railing he had been leaning on and scowled at the runaway boxer.
"Why didn't you mention something that import...ooof!"
Before Sento could fully articulate his thoughts, Ryuga swiftly pivoted and thrust his right hand into Sento's solar plexus, doubling him over.
Sento couldn't catch his breath or respond, Ryuga had already maneuvered behind him, sliding an arm under his neck to strangle him into unconsciousness. Caught off guard by the sudden sucker punch and subsequent attack, Sento was powerless, collapsing to the ground unconscious!
Ryuga gently placed the man on the ground and spoke to the unconscious hero.
"Sorry, this is my problem."
He left the helpless Sento on the side of the road, still completely unconscious and drove off on the stolen bike towards Kasumi's apartment.
...
Several miles and minutes later, Ryuga stopped outside the apartment building where his fiancée lived. He paused before riding closer so that he could take a look, a glance at the place, to see if his woman was anywhere in sight.
As he was about to continue his approach towards the apartment, a monstrous explosion erupted! It seemed to originate from Kasumi's living quarters, near the top of the building. Debris from the explosion scattered everywhere, striking the boxer.
The blast knocked Ryuga senseless. Despite wearing a helmet, it offered little protection as the debris pelted him. He and his dirt bike were thrown to the ground. A look of pure shock and panic crossed Ryuga's face. He rose to his knees, punching the ground repeatedly as tears welled up in his eyes.
"Kasumi, NOOOOO!... Kasumi!"
