Susan Cross needed a new bike. It had broken down for the third time this week and a drifter without a bike was a pretty bad drifter. While her motorcycle was being repaired she'd been spending the day in Hiroshima, going through the museum and park (crying a lot). And talking to small adorable schoolkids.
At the moment she was trying to get a good photo of the dome (One of the few buildings to survive the atomic bomb), and to that end she was standing on one of the bridges trying to get it into focus ...

Tsukasa sighed as he walked around watching the people as they came and went. He knew the area a bit, at least to a degree. He had seen maps in the little shops and such but apart from that he just seemed to "know" where he was going. He had just come to this world and at the moment had no idea why. His clothes were the same, black jeans, black boots, a magenta shirt and a black sport coat. His camera, as usual, hung from his neck and as he walked he began doing as he always did in a new world... He took pictures.
As he was walking and looking through his camera his focus came upon a woman standing on a bridge. As he looked at her he quickly took two or three shots before turning to see what it was she was attempting to take a picture of. He brought the dome into focus and snapped another picture before walking over to her and smiling in his usual way. "I see you like taking pictures as well... Mind if I ask why that building?" Before he knew what he was saying the words were already out. He cursed in his mind as he realized that he shouldn't be asking that if he were trying to blend in but already he had gone and said something foolish.

~Sure, it says "Open" for a reason~ CrossSuzie turned to the man who'd just come up to her and looked a bit confused. "Well why not?" She asked, bringing her camera into focus again and taking a picture "That and two or three other buildings were the only ones to survive the Atomic Bombing of Hiroshima, and the dome was the closest one to where the bomb detonated,""I have another picture too, from the museum," She went on "You know how you can get a really good photo from the observation bit that gets the dome, the flame, the fountain and all those paper cranes in?" ~So you know what I mean~ Cross[/color]

Tsukasa tilted his head as he looked at the building again then towards the museum. He shrugged a bit but turned his attention back to the girl. He tried to act as if he understood but he really didn't and it was showing. He looked at her a bit confused at first but then sighed and turned his attention back towards the dome.
"Hmmm so that was close to a major blast huh... Looks like it's seen it's fair share of battles..." He sighed once more before looking at her and leaning against the rail of the bridge. "Name's Tsukasa... I'm a photographer of sorts... Though I don't have any published works..." He smiled once more before looking up at the sky and sighing again. "I'd like to think I could capture the world on film one day... However so far it's not allowed itself to be caught...."

While the two photographers were speaking of their hobby, Kizuna was doing some more of his.
He had recently sold several Smart Buckles and was trying to get ahold of more so he could treat himself to some crab. Lobster was fine, but overrated.
He ducked under a punch before lashing out behind him. He spun around and slid out his Ride Booker before elbowing the Riotrooper and plunging the sword into his waist. He slid off the belt and stepped back as the armor disappeared, leaving a pile of ash. Smiling to himself, he switched to Blast Mode and fired a volley of shots. He slid through the last Riotrooper's legs and shot the clasp, sending the buckle to the ground. The user began to morph to Orphenoch Form before Kizuna unleashed a volley of wild slashes. It burned in a blue flame and Kizuna scooped up his new belongings.
Shoving them into his bag, he slung it over and made his way down the ramp, stowing his buckle.
There was a good place he had seen, might as well go there. There was some alright scenery on the way, too.

Suzie chuckled a bit, this guy sounded like a proper artiste she brought her camera up and took a snap of the guys face. "Don't worry I don't have many published works either ... I used to take wedding photos and stuff though," She sighed "I almost went to Iraq, y'know, take photographs of the war, and soldiers, and I think two of my pictures were printed in a newspaper,"

Kizuna stopped on the bridge and looked around.
Tsukasa had taught him to never take anything for granted. Never underestimate anything, not even yourself.
He would have snapped photos of people, him and the buildings around if he entered a new world. Some would become distorted, some would turn out fine, some would have some problems...
He explained that he had travelled through the worlds, fufilling the needs of that world and carrying on. Every parrellel world of that dimension would provide another problem, and that would cause havoc to his usually normal photos.
Sometimes the two worlds would only have very few changes and his photos would turn out fine, sometimes there would be a fleck of discolouration, sometimes everything would be warped...
What would the world be for you, Tsukasa?
He watched as his idol talked to some girl that was playing on his mind and moved on.

"Hey come on then," Suzie smiled pointing at his camera "Let's see some of your pho-" She stopped and looked a tad disappointed when she realised his camera wasn't digital.

Tsukasa looked down at his camera as the woman was in the process of asking to see some of his photos. He smiled lightly, a bit awkwardly as well, and sighed lightly. "Sorry about that... Never really did get into the whole digital thing... Always felt this way produced better pictures..."
With that Tsukasa closed the lens of the camera as well as the viewfinder. He sighed once more as he turned around and leaned on the bridge. "So aside from pictures what else brings you here... Anything good going on around here?"

Kizuna stopped a block away from the shop and froze.
He had just seen... His face changed with a mix of excitment, fear, wonder, worry and confusion. He turned and sprinted, parting the crowd roughly.

Suzie stopped for a second, deep in thought. "... Oysters," She laughed "Is it oysters?"
Then she heard someone screaming, basic "save the world" instincts kicked in and she shot away from Tsukasa and rounded the corner, stopping next to ... "You!" She shouted "Riderman ... Riderman Decade or something,"
~According to my Japanese teacher, Hiroshima is famous for oysters~ Cross

As Tsukasa stood slowly he heard the screams as well. His eyes went wide as he turned to see the woman already in a sprint towards it. He looked around confused for a moment but soon knew what he had to do. "Tsk... And here I thought for once I would be able to enjoy myself..." With that he took off after the woman.
A few moments later he turned the corner just in time to hear her say something about Riderman Decade or something to that effect. Now he was royally confused as the only Decade he knew was, well, himself. Anyone other than that usually turned out to be a fake who was out to ruin his name, or at least that's how it was in the movies. Either way he stopped next to her and prepared for the usual. "Oh and as for the Oysters... I have no idea.... Not from around here... So to speak..."

Suzie spared him a passing glance and then looked straight ahead at ... something. "What exactly is that thing?" She asked to no one in particular.

Kizuna's mind flashed through the possibilities.
This world's Decade? A parallel worlds? It wasn't Dai-Shocker's Decade... It could be one that decided to kill the Riders from the start...
"Kadoya Tsukasa!" He shouted. He knew only a few Riders evolved to the point that Tsukasa had gotten... But this was Tsukasa... Confused, he instinctively pulled out his Driver.
"No... You..." He stuttered before he came to the only reasonable conclusion.
"Worm!" He shouted before strapping his belt on. "Orphenoch?" He shouted, his voice faltering. He frowned before ripping his belt off.
"Just who the hell are you!"
