Welcome to Gaia! ::

"That could be useful. Maybe would use some sort of distraction before we use do something like that."

Ryan briefly turned to Eiji.
"That's beside the point. You have anything to add?"

Ryan turned back to Kio.
"That's what I mean. We use our mele type fighters while Tsukasa preps you for an attack. Or you two break off and do it quickly if we get in a lucky break."
he paused.

"...That's another thing, but we know next to nothing of eithers' plans. That's what really worries me."

"I was about to mention the same thing. We also don't know if his position towards the Foundation are either. Either he's with them, or just using them for his own needs. Or vise versa.

Whatever the case, I think that our fight is going to be a lot harder from here on out."

"I think that we should start doing training sessions. At least twice a day.

Anybody agree? "

((I will try to make my posts better,if not I'm going to need a lot of help))

Kamen Rider Mantis and the WORM fought furiously,the WORM spoke in a mumbled language,sort of a loud piercing shriek,
"Urgh,this is tough,the man is gone,should I run?"He asked himself(Kai)
Kai decided not to,he kept on fighting,the WORM gave Kai a hard time,the WORM had made Kai tired and made him wonder if his decision could make him end up dead.
((This is as far as I will go until Jes or Sai approve))

"I suggest unhenshined. This way we can become stronger without our powers. If we can then that will inhance our powers. Simple logic"

"Not a bad suggestion Kio. When did you get smart?"

"Uh maybe it was that hit to my head?"

((Doing much better Aru. But allow me to make a suggestion. You dont always have to put the character's name after they speak. But it helps if you indicate its them by color of text. thats why we have it. Also..you dont always have to put "kamen rider mantis", simply putting Mantis is good enough sometimes. 3nodding ))

"From what i saw...he seems to be on our side. Though i think he might have something else he is dealing with. Maybe some other force we have never seen before? Still we could use his help. The more the better."

*Hiraku strolled through the city where he had been stuck. It had been a stressful time today as he had to not only save a kid from a monster that purposely lured them away, but had to find a way to save the kid from poison. After the difficult procedure where he had no real idea what he was doing and guided by the little help Advance Timer gave him, he managed to at least stabilize Dalton and returned him home to get some rest. To be sure, he called a military doctor and let them know that Dalton had been injured and needed care, so it was very likely at this moment the doctor was trying to help Dalton further.

As he walked through the city, time seemingly slowed down around him as if he had just entered clock-up. Afraid of what was going on, he began to reach for his driver and the card to henshin with it. The labtech figure from before walked out in front of him, not putting forth any sudden movements or attacking.*
No need for thhat Era... or shhould I ccall you Hhiraku?
I'm Hiraku, not Hhhhhiraku. What are you doing... and what do you want?!
I slowed the pacce of thhe othhers.
I'm hhere to offer you a cchhancce.
A chance for what?
Join my ccause.
I too am trapped hhere, forcced to work withh thhose I whhould rathher not.
Togethher we ccan leave righht now.
...You just want the Era driver don't you?
Percceptive, but I also want your hhelp.
You may keep the driver, just so long as you and I work togethher and not withh thhe riders or othhers.
Like I told Eiji I don't want to join any monsters. It would only result in me being backstabbed.
Thhink it over thhen.
Besides... thhe riders hhave already lashhed out at you oncce.
I also know your driver isn't funcctioning properly.
If thhey gain power and turn on you again... you'll need my hhelp or risk beccoming thhat again.

*Before Hiraku could respond, time jolted forward and the mystery monster-thing had disappeared into the flow of time. Hiraku stood a moment, still frozen by what they had said. Standing around, he could only stare downwards at the ground and think about his history, with riders and others betraying him and turning on him at various points in his life. He clenched his fist a bit, unsure of what path to take now. Eiji was an annoyance and he knew that since before they got trapped here, but this monster he couldn't be sure of. Having no idea that it was the thing behind some of the attacks he's had to endure thus far, the weight of their words began to push him down a bit further.

Starting to walk again, Hiraku tried to think out the many things on his mind. Not looking where he was going, he bumped into Eiji who had been standing there and watching him walk like some kind of lost animal.*
Watch where your going, Hiraku.
Shut up and stop following me. I'm not in the mood to deal with you right now.
That's a nice way to greet someone trying to help you.
Your only helping yourself. *Hiraku attempted to walk around Eiji, however he stood in front of him to block his path, keeping him from leaving.*
That is what we all are doing, except the thing you just spoke to. Don't trust it. The creature is called Noburus and it is one of the most lethal opponents I know of.
Just leave me alone Eiji! I don't want your help. You've done nothing but torment me and go back on our deal.

*Hiraku shoved past Eiji and continued walking, getting upset on top of being mentally bombarded with things wasn't good for him. Holding his head a bit and rushing off, he tried not to make a public scene anymore than he had. The people who caught the attention of this temper tantrum turned away and continued to do what they were doing before hand. Eiji stood there, watching Hiraku rush off. Shaking his head, he walked off towards a vending machine to get another soda.*
He's getting too emotionally overloaded. I just hope he sticks with his plan instead of going with Noburus. The last thing I need is a Deimnasa getting him on their side...

*Hiraku continued to walk, trying to not have the problems stacking up get to him. Eiji continued to walk while drinking his soda, not wishing to take off until done with it. As he walked, he stopped for a moment and looked to a film development studio. Dalton laid unconscious in his room, the doctor having left feeling nothing to be wrong with him other than some form of the common cold. The previous Lycid owner was hidden in a hole in the ground, near a large rock quite outside of the city. The man screamed out silently as he continued to change slowly into a mindless freak like the thing that had beaten him. Meanwhile, the odd labtech Noburus stood in their hidden nest-like area in town, looking to the zebra-scorpion monster they had made from the foolish human that had came to them in hopes of revenge.

Turning to an odd holographic-like image of four figures, Noburus turned into it's monster form temporarily to address them.*
Soon, we will be able to pushh forward withh our objecctives.
Thhings are playing just as you want, masters.
*Without addressing them, the four images disappeared in acknowledgment of the situation. Noburus returned to it's disguised form, turning behind them and walking into an area set up with stolen tables and game pieces they had taken from local game stores. As they walked, they moved around game to game, moving pieces and playing the game before walking down another path to play the other sides. As they did this, they waited for their motions to pass on the fates of the two poisoned, Era and the riders, as well as the test subject which had to rest another hour or two before work could be done to remove the Ebith seals and to tweak it's ability and form to be more combat-friendly and less mutated.*
