<Episode 42>

She knew something was wrong when she woke up and nothing happened. Rachel waited a few more minutes, still nothing. Rolling over she saw his cot was empty. He was getting better at hiding the fact those nightmares were still waking him up, but they still happened like clockwork. Getting out of bed and into her jeans she went looking for him. Seeing only one other person in the hallway she asked, “Did you Jack?”.

“I saw him heading for the gym,” she replied.

“Thanks Tina.” She should have guessed that’s were he’d be. It was almost impossible to get him out of there for the past couple of days. As soon as Lance arrived, which was just about every day now, off to the gym they went. Rachel heard him pound on the heavy before she even reached the door. She stood by silently and watched. His face wasn’t as swollen anymore but it was still bandaged and bruised, and she subconsciously rubbed the bruise on her cheek. For several minutes he threw punches at the bag, occasionally mixing in a kick or a knee. He paused only long enough to acknowledge she was there before continuing. “Getting an early jump before Lance arrives,” she joked. She knew what he was doing, he was trying to tire himself out. “So what happened in the nightmare this time?” Jack lost his rhythm for a second and she knew she hit the mark. “You’re supposed to tell me when you have one,” Rachel reminded him.

“I didn’t want to wake you,” he answered. Then he added, “For the forth time this week.”

“That kind of goes against our no more secrets rule,” She informed him. Sitting on the bench she patted the spot next to her to get him to join her. Reluctantly he did so but he was having a hard time looking at her. “Something in that nightmare changed, so what was it?”

Jack waited a few moments before answering, “I finally saw the other person the Drakan were going after.” He closed his eyes and put a hand over them, “They were going after you.”

She wasn’t quite sure what to say to that. “Hey, I’m right here. Nothing happened.”

“I know, I just…,” he trailed off. Opening his eyes again he said, “I wish this nightmare would just go away.”

“So do I,” she rubbed his back. “But Dusty says it’ll go away when it goes away. So is Lance going by again today?” He said he was. “Why have you guys been training so much for the past week?”

“Because Sparky and Arron keep holding back on me.”

“Holding back on you? I don’t get it.”

“Mitchell is stronger and faster than I am,” he said looking serious. “System to system I can’t compete, but maybe I can hold my own if I get better fighting wise. And I can’t do that if people are going to treat me with kid gloves.”

“You seem to be holding your own to me,” Rachel told him.

“I’m basically just a street fighter while he’s been trained,” he continued. “I’m basically fighting on instinct instead of anything else. He mentioned two of the fights I’ve been in, the one with the bat at Dusty’s and the woman we faced when we were forced to move. He was right, I was lucky in both fights.”

“Luck had nothing to do with those fights,” she tried to tell him. “Mitchell doesn’t know…”

“You figured out the bats weakness,” he said. “And if that wasp didn’t get her spike stuck in that pillar I don’t think I would have gotten another opening. I need to get better if I’m going to have a chance when I fight Mitchell again.”

“You’re letting him get to you,” Rachel informed him. “That what he wants, to get in your head. You can’t be listening to what he’s trying to tell you.”

“I can’t help it if he’s right,” he told her.

“Come on,” she said getting up, “we both now you’re better than he thinks you are. Luck only gets you so far and you wouldn’t have lasted this long if that’s all you relied on. But if you insist on doing this you’re going to need your sleep.” Dragging him to his feet she added, “Besides you have another engagement today you have to worry about.” Rachel smiled at how confused he looked.

Dragon Knight is NOT Cancelled?

15 12 2009

Check the forum for more info.

Word hit GaijInside that the rumor of the Dragon Knight’s premature death may have been spoken in error. Here’s the breakdown from Adness Entertainment:

“On behalf of Kamen Rider Dragon Knight and
Adness Entertainment, I wanted to personally thank all the fans for the
tremendous outpouring of support we have received for the show.

Kamen Rider Dragon Knight is, as of now, scheduled to
air through December 26, 2009. The broadcaster has the option of taking a break
from the series to make way for any special programming they may have planned
for January 2010. We want to assure our fans that the channel is free to bring
back Kamen Rider and continue to air the series at any time.

After December 26th, the last two episodes of the
series will be available for online viewing on the 4Kids website.

Again, thank you for watching and for your support.”

So, looks like the Dragon might be getting his due run after all. And like was said before, either way we get to see the final battle online (which is where I watch it anyway…) on 4Kids website.

Get ready, Xaviax…. we’re comin’ for ya! ;)

It become even more apparent by the end of the above clip as you see Travis strike a classic Kamen Rider pose and pilot a giant zord against an anime mech. Keep an eye open for it when it hits the Wii in January. :D

Kamen Rider Fusion- Episode 41, Mark 2 part 1, Blast from the Past

9 12 2009

<Episode 41>

He heard a slow clapping sound and tried to locate it. He found somebody coming toward him in the shadows still clapping his hands. He could tell from where he was he was wearing a World Inc. assault team uniform. “I got to tell you something buddy,” the figure said. “I was worried when I found out you were having problems. But it looks like you actually gained a step or two since I last saw you.”

He stepped into the light and Jack got a good look at him, but he already recognized the voice, “Mitchell.”

“I bet you thought you’d never see me again.” Mitchell started jogging in place, looking pleased, “I was wondering it myself after you paralyzed me that day.” He stared at Jack for a second, losing some of his mirth, “You did know that right? I mean you had to have heard my back snap when I landed on the edge of that van. Yeah, I thought about that for a long time, I still do actually. But you got to love the Fusion system though right? You barely had any legs at all when we found you. Now look at us, on our feet like nothing happened.”

Jack felt a strong urge to back up but he held his ground, “So you guys arranged this little get together for a reunion or something? You could have just sent a postcard.”

“Oh no,” Mitchell quickly dismissed it. “No the plan was to get one of the other cells. When they raided that Trent guy cell a couple of the prisoners who were willing to talk said your group was pretty close to this other one. That was the one we were targeting tonight. The boys back at World Inc. were certain that the rumors we planted would draw them out. The idea was to try to draw you out by holding you for bait actually.” He chuckled a bit, “Imagine my surprise when you showed up instead. So the new plan was to get you away from the others. That idiot knocked you down here instead. I really had to hoof it to find you two.”

“So I forced you to think on the fly?”, Jack commented. “I’d bet that sprained something.”

He chuckled again, “I almost forgot you had a sense of humor. Well you can’t blame me with the look you gave me last time. That entire day was burned in my brain. I can’t tell you how many times I relived it. Hell I probably dreamed about it while I was in that tube being turned into a thing like you. Well not like you exactly,” he corrected himself. “For one I still have all my original parts,” he sneered. “And two I was bonded to the Mark two system.”

“Let me guess,” Jack cut him off, “You’re just dying to show me the difference between the two.”

Mitchell grinned, “Since you insist.”

Jack quickly got his left arm up to materialize the belt. Swinging his arm to the side he raised his right to his left. Shouting, “Henshin!”, he slammed his right hand on top of the belt. It scanned him and he was back in the Fusion armor.

Mitchell raised his left arm, bent at the elbow and his hand balled up in a fist. A familiar looking belt appeared round his waist, except the faceplate was blue. Glaring at him he clenched his fist tighter as he said, “Transform!” He moved his arm to the side and in one motion he swung his right arm up and over before slamming his right hand on top of the belt. Jack watched as he was covered in a black body suit and red armor formed around. He stared into the blue lenses of Mitchells’ helmet. Based on the look Jack guess he was based on a dragonfly too.

Jack snorted as he said, “Transform? Oh that’s real original.”

Mitchell cracked his neck, “At least my word sounds American. I mean hen…shin, what in the hell does that mean any way?”

“Transform you moron.”
