King of the Cage (Open for up to four characters)

[Azrael]

Danny Ketch and Azrael stood in the owners box overlooking the metal octagon they had erected and the large crowd gathered around it.

"This had better work Daniel." Azrael said as he watched the first pair of challengers fight in the cage. It was a Fangire and a Grongi each trying to lure the other into an opening.

"If you build it they will come. Every major faction in the henshin community has received word of this little underground fight club. It's the perfect way to get the Riders, Rangers and monsters to kill each other for us." Danny explains. The Grongi charges the Fangire and manages to pin him to the mesh wall of the octagon. The audience screams from the excess adrenalin they feel vicariously.

"There is the fact that this is illegal. We're bound to attract legal attention with crowds this size." Azrael says gesturing to the screaming masses. The Fangire breaks off a chunk of it's own leg that reforms into a dagger. A dagger that it jams into the Grongi's leg.

"That's the best part, Mixed Martial Arts fights are legal here. As far as the authorities are concerned this is just regular MMA with the superhero window dressing. We have nothing to fear from them." Danny continues. The Grongi falls to the ground careful to land on it's good leg as the Fangire pushes back with it's blade.

"And when people start disappearing?" Azrael asks. The Fangire lunges forward swinging it's knife but the Grongi rolls under the attack and head butts the Fangire's chest.

"Most heroes and monsters live off the grid and distrust authority. I'd know." Danny says with a short laugh.

"You would but what is your point?" Azrael asks lifting an eye brow to Death.

"They live off the grind. No family, no regular job, no fixed address. The only people who will miss them are others like them. Their companions in arms won't go to the police they'd go investigate themselves which just gives us more victims." Danny explains. The Fangire is stunned by the Grongi's attack caught vulnerable for a few moments. The Grongi grabs the Fangire's knife and plunges it deep into it's owner's chest. Around the knife the skin of the fangire starts to crystallize and soon the monster's whole body is like that. The Grongi takes makes a two handed fist and smashes it's opponent into dust.

"Now if you'll excuse me I got to go announce the next fight."

"You ready for some more blood here tonight folks?" Danny asks the crowd through a microphone. They roar with approval.

"We got something special for you tonight ladies and gentlemen we got us a five way battle royal featuring everyone's favourite nubile savage...Kamen Rider Amazon!"

Amazon leaps down from the rafters to the sounds of Guns n Roses . She lands on the top of the cage feet first and unleashes a feral roar much to the enthusiasm to the audience who howl with delight. The music dies down and she makes her way to the cage entrance and Danny waits for the next combatant to enter the arena for him to announce.

[Kyuuta Nomoida]

[Could I reserve a spot here?]

[Azrael]

((Sure))

[Ezekiel Iris]

"Whose idea was thist!?" Ezekiel yelled, staggering into the owners box and looking a mess, his hair was a little singed, his face covered in sweat and a pair of goggles round his neck. He was tripping over his labcoat and looked rather stressed. "Seriously? You told me we were doing important work, and what do I find you doing? Having some sort of gladiatorial death match in here!" He sighed and wandered over to the window to see Danny and Amazon in/ on the cage "What are you eve- oh. Of course this was his idea ..."

[Azrael]

"We would have to deal with all of them sooner or later, Daniel's plan just brings them to us instead of forcing us to go around the world looking for them." Azrael sighs as he takes a seat and gestures for Ezekiel to take another one.

"I do approve of making a sport of death. It is supposed to be a private affair between combatants and loved ones. Not this showy abomination but such is the world man has brought. We all do as we must for the plan. How goes your research on the Silver Bullet?"

[Ezekiel Iris]

Kenneth looked over his shoulder, and made that odd sucking noise that a mechanic makes before they tell you that it's going to be a big job.
"It's ... it's not a virus," He told him "Technically it's not a virus, they're mutated white blood cells by the look of it, I presume Orphnoch cells," He turned fully and started fidgeting with his goggles "I think I understand the mechanics of how it works, that an orphnoch's immune systems doesn't "kill" enemy bacteria, viruses and stuff rather that it assimilates them, I suppose Smart Brain's scientist's must have made some changes so it spreads Orphnoch cells throughout the infected," He stopped and took a deep breath "Um, sorry, short version; good but I need to get tissue or cell samples or both, else I'm not going anywhere,"

He looked out of the window and pointed to one of the less-lucky competitors.
"... I suppose I can get some from here,"

[Azrael]

"I'll have Amazon bring them to you when Daniel is finished with her before I send her back the jungle for the night. Strange girl, refused every offer of shelter I have given her." Azrael says.

"Anything else on your mind Ezekiel?"

[Ezekiel Iris]

"Not really," Ezekiel said looking out the window and scanning the crowd "How did you even get this many people to come?"

[Azrael]

"Word of mouth mostly. It's amazing how tiny and close the population of heroes and monsters really is when you get down to it." Azrael muses.

"For example the DekaRangers you had trouble with in Japan the other day, they have close ties to the Fallen Rangers and an ongoing rivalry with a group of space pirate rangers called the Gokaigers who are also on good terms with the Fallen Rangers. That's just the Rangers, you do not want me to get started on the Riders."

[Ezekiel Iris]

Ezekiel "Hmmmm"'d and looked at Ezekiel again.
"What if we were to get them all to fight?" He suggested.

[Azrael]

"That is part of the plan. The Earl is currently setting the Riders against each other and the plan is to use the existing conflict between the Rangers to divide things further." Azrael explains.

[Ezekiel Iris]

"Of course," He realised "Horseman of war, conflict's his middle name,"

[Dark Tsukasa]

A strange tune began playing and when the music skipped to the climax (1:52) a figure appeared, a grey wall receding from the frame of the door.

"And here we have our aptly named destroyer, King of Riders, Decade!" Danny shouted as Tsukasa entered, his transformation mostly complete. The cards slotted into his head as his transformation finished. He sneered underneath his helmet, dusting his hands as he entered the cage.

[Ezekiel Iris]

"What the Hell is that?" Asked Ezekiel "It's ... it just looks," He shivered "freaky,"

[Azrael]

"Decade, his power is not of this world or any other." Azrael muses as he watches Tsukasa enter the arena. Amazon sneers at her opponent but does little else. "Wait until you see the next challenger."

***

Danny nods to Tsukasa, the man held a noble goal of ridding the world of Riders but Danny would not allow him to be the last man standing in the end. He grips the microphone again as a darker variation on a familiar tune begins to play.. "Easily our youngest Warrior but still a reining champion. Infused with the powers of the demon Magog comes the Black Fallen Ranger!"

Martain Lee the Ranger of Magog enters the Arena already fully morphed he extends his claws and glares at the opponents.

((If no one else has a character to put in I'll fill the remaining slots with MOTW level kajin.))
