We see Tassel is flying around with his umbrella in the sky above Wonder world. "Bonne lecture everyone! Let's have our focus to recap on the previous chapter. Victor has obtained the King of Arthur Wonder Ride Book in Avalon. But he was told that it's the start of the trial, it appears that Arthur is hiding something from us so we'll see in this chapter. Oh Gloria too, she has gotten her Wonder Combo form. It's this powerful form that uses three books! And I know what you're thinking, yes, this episode will combine both episode from the XY anime and Kamen rider Saber. How will the author pull this off? Let's see," Tassel said before flying away
--------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 9: An evolution of bonds!
At Victor
We left off when he defeated the opponent who is testing his worthiness of using the power.
"I was able to use the power... But will I prove my worthiness into using such power...? How did Touma do it? How did he get the worthiness to use this?" Victor said to himself then turns around
He looks around to see he's back in the white void like before. Then he felt something in his hand and looks at it to see it's some sort of blank big Ride Book
"It's up to you to draw out it's true power,"
"True... Power?"
"And that power, will grant you great strength,"
--------------------------------------------------------------
At Hop
He's knocked downed by Calibur. He's about to slash him but stops, "There's no point in remaining here any longer,"
Hop looks back at him, "Please answer me... What do you mean by been left behind by everyone. And was the only survivor!? Please!" He asked
Calibur went silent and turns around to walk away. "You said you'll kill them! Why would you join them!?" Hop asked but he didn't answer
He lays down and cancelled out of his transformation, 'You're the only survivor...? Tell me, what does that mean? Why would you join them in the first place?' Hop's thoughts
"Hop!" Victor called out for him while trying to find him, he then found him and ran up to him, "Hop! Are you okay!?" He asked
"Were you able to break the seal off your sword?" Hop asked while getting up
"Yeah," then helps him to get up
"Victor... What just happened...?" Hop asked
"Is there something wrong?" Victor asked
"No... It's nothing," Hop responded
"Then let's head back home," Victor helps him to get back to the cafe
While they're doing this, the same figure with his hood down is watching them, "After you achieve its true power, after you defeated Calibur, we will meet again, Victor,"
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the royal throne room
Calibur came back from Avalon and returned with nothing
"Were you able to obtain Avalon's power?" Storious asked
"No, Saber managed to take it first. Sorry to disappoint," Calibur replied
"That's a shame," Storious responded
"The question now is whether he can master its power," Calibur said
"That's interesting to hear. Speaking of which, while you were out, something else interesting happened as well," Storious responded
"Where are the others?" Calibur asked
"They're outside, planning to use the alter ride book somewhere. Can't wait to meet him again like a family reunion," Storious said with a smirk and walks away while Calibur is staring at him
--------------------------------------------------------------
Few days passed, morning
At Ash and his friends
He's back in Lumiouse city after beating the Cyllage gym and seeing a battle on the board
"Woah! A huge Pokemon battle!" Ash said
"And it's taking place right here in town," Clement said
"Wow," Serena was amazed
"We should definitely go," Ash said
"Pikachu!"
"Wait is that?" Serena said that got their attention, she's seeing the champion of Kalos on the board, "It is! Diantha is doing an exhibition battle!"
"Wonderful,"
"Yeah,"
"Awesome, all right!" Then turns back to them, "Who's Diantha anyway?" Ash asked that made them fall
"How could you not know who she is!?" Serena asked
"She's the strongest trainer in all of Kalos, that's who," Clement responded
"Yep, she's the champion," Bonnie said
"Nenne!"
"Really? No kidding?" Ash asked and looks back at the board
"Pika?"
"Diantha the champion huh? I'm psyched," Ash said
"Not only Diantha the champion, she also happens to be a world famous movie star," Serena responded
"A movie star?" Ash asked
"Just have a look up there," Serena said
They look up to see her billboard on a building
"That's her in the blockbuster my sweet sweet lady," Clement said
"Elegant with a dignified presence, the all-around perfect leading lady. I so admire her," Serena said
"I do too," Clement said
"Yes! That's it. I'll challenge her," Ash said
"Huh?" Serena was quite surprised
"In that case, I'll ask her to take care if Clement for me!" Bonnie said
"Denne!"
"That's even more ridiculous," Clement said while looking down
"Come on! Let's go see her!" Ash said and starts running
They all follows Ash to Diantha's battle
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the Sword of Logos base
Victor is trying to figure out what's the blank book is about but found no answers from the books, "An unknown book with no answers... What about this one? This has power more powerful than other ride books. I don't know if I can master it to save everyone... I'm still afraid about not being able to save anyone with this. Just," Victor gets a headache for overthinking too much about it
"You're overthinking too hard,"
He turns his head to see Gloria, "What is it? Can't you see I'm busy right now?"
"I'm afraid not, you're putting too much pressure on your mental health doing this," Gloria replied
"Yeah... But it's to know everything," Victor responded
"It doesn't mean you have to go that far. Why don't you catch a break? Since this cafe is closed for a day, and there's no Megiddo attacks yet," Gloria suggested
"Break... Sure," Victor replied
"Great," then she took out her Gatrikephone, "Why don't we go to this place, they said they serve the best chocolate cake," Gloria said
"I guess I could use some sugar to help relieve my mind," Victor replied
"Okay, I'll invite Hop and Naomi too," Gloria said and goes to the stairs to where they are
Victor looks back at the blank book and wondered, 'What does he mean I must draw out it's true power?'
--------------------------------------------------------------
At Ash and his friends
They've arrived at the place after they see Diantha's battle exhibition to get a chocolate cake but to see there's a long line of people
"Huh? There's a crowd here too..." Serena said
"It seems that there's a huge crowd everywhere we go today," Clement said
"Yeah," Ash responded
"Yeah they're not getting me down. Let's move it!" Serena said
"I'm with you," Bonnie said
Both went in to the back of the line to order the cake
Timeskip
Serena and Bonnie came back with nothing
"You guys, where's the cake?" Ash asked
"They sold out..." Serena said with disappointment
"What? Already?" Ash asked
"I mean, they're very well known so that's why," Clement responded
"Aw man, who would bought a whole cake for themselves?" Ash asked
"You guys looked rather a bit disappointed,"
They turned their heads to see him. "Hop?" Ash said
"What makes you to be here today?" Serena asked
"You see. I'm here with my friends and bought the cake for ourselves. But Victor saw you guys and suggested to share with you four," Hop replied
"Wait really?" Clement asked
"I want some!" Bonnie said
"Ne denne ne!"
"Our table is right over here!"
They look at the source of the voice to see Naomi, Victor, and Gloria on the other table
They all went up to them and saw the cake
"Wait you actually bought a cake?" Ash asked
"Why didn't you buy the sliced one?" Serena asked
"Because clearly someone has uncontrollable sugar craving that they won't tell," Victor replied while looking at Gloria
"Come on, we could've eat it if we're in a group," Gloria responded
"Now you two, you don't have to argue because we're in public," Naomi said
"Who are you?" Ash asked Naomi
"Hm? Oh me? My name is Naomi, I've heard a lot about you in the news," she replied
"Nice to meet you, I'm Ash-"
"No need for introduction. I already know you guys," Naomi responded
"So who's going to cut the cake into perfect ratio slices?" Hop asked
"That's sounds like my cue," Clement said that got their attention, "The future is now thanks to science, clemontic gear on!" Then show a gadget of some sort, "I thought we would encounter a situation precisely like this one. I call it the precisely even cut-o-matic. So let me use-" Clement then sees the cake has already been sliced, "W-wha?"
"You're taking too long to explain. I've already cut it myself," Victor replied
"What?! There'll be some imperfections to the cake!" Clement said
"Look at it yourself," Victor replied
Clement looks at the cake and ratio on each slices, "It's... It's a perfect ratio! It's like if a surgeon cut this with such precision. But how..?" He was surprised
"Because there's nothing I cannot cut," Victor replied
"Except those you can't cut through," Gloria said
"Come on now, that's the coolest quote I've ever made and you decided to ruin it," Victor said
"Do you even know what sarcasm is?" She asked
"What's that?" He asked
"Makes sense," Gloria replied
"All right, why don't we get a bite?" Ash said and was about to pick up a slice
"You're sold out already?"
They turned their heads to see a customer that's disappointed about the cake being sold out
"I am so very sorry," the employee replied
"Oh... What a tragedy, to think I came all this way to get this shop's award-winning chocolate cake. Oh... The end of the world..." The customer said with disappointment
"The end of the world?" Serena said
"Sounds like a villain's finisher attack," Victor responded
"Why's that?" Hop asked
"I leaked too much," Victor replied
"That's disappointment," Clement said
"Ma'am, if you want a slice, we'll be happy to share with you," Ash said
The customer turns to them, "You sure?" She asked
Ash turns to Victor. "Sure, why not since this is quite a big one," Victor replied
The customer went up to them, "Haven't I seen you all before?" She asked
"Huh?" Serena was confused
The customer puts down her glasses to reveal she's Diantha, "Hi, it's me,"
Ash and his friends were surprised to see her, "Huh!? Diantha!?" They shouted at the same time
"What's a Diantha?" Victor asked
"Apparently she's the champion of Kalos," Gloria replied
"A champion?" Victor was surprised as well
"Shh," Diantha silence them from revealing her identity to the public
"Right, we'll keep your identity a secret from the public," Hop said
"So you guys are getting the slice or not?" Victor asked
"Oh sorry to keep you waiting," Ash said and took a slice
The rest took the slice as well. "Alright let's eat!" They said at the same time
They all then took a bite of the slice. "So good!" They said at the same time except for the four
"Wow, best chocolate cake I ever had," Ash said
"It is, the sweetness brings the bold bitterness and acidity together perfectly, a memorable cake for sure," Diantha said
"You certainly know your cake!" Serena said to her
"I just adore desserts," Diantha said
"I do too!" Serena replied
"Me too!" Bonnie said
"Is it just me or it just taste like a normal cake?" Victor asked
"You can't taste the flavours?" Hop asked
"Haven't had sweets in a long while since," he replied
"Probably because you've been stressing yourself too much," Gloria said
"I could. But I don't know," Victor responded
"Whenever I visited town for work, I always look forward to sampling their popular desserts, whether I'm busy or not," Diantha said
"Movie star and champion. Juggling two jobs must be challenging to say the least," Clement said
--------------------------------------------------------------
"At least her's is about movie star while I was doing duty for AIMS," Gloria said
"At least your work schedule isn't that jammed," Victor said
"And there isn't much Humandroids to worry about that is going berserk back home," Hop said
"Humandroids... I kinda miss them," Victor said
--------------------------------------------------------------
"But I do it out of love, so it's not work at all," Diantha replied
"You're so amazing..." Serena said
"That's right you're a keeper!" Bonnie then ran up to her and kneeled down, "Would you please take care of my brother?" She asked
"Take care?" Diantha was confused
"I told you to stop this!" Clement said
"You see, my brother is a bit shy. So I thought it would be good if he married a dependable woman like you," Bonnie responded
"Me? Marry your brother?" Diantha asked
"It was a joke!" Clement said
"I wasn't joking!" Bonnie replied
"Excuse me, Diantha, please have a Pokemon battle with me," Ash asked
"Huh? You?" Diantha asked
"Ash, you must know Diantha doesn't get much private time and here you are bothering her this way," Serena said
"Yeah, but I want to be a Pokemon master. So having a battle with you would be awesome. Because you're the champion. Please?" Ash asked
Both stared at each other until Diantha made up her mind. "All right," she replied that made them surprised, "I usually turn down unofficial battle request. But I get to eat the chocolate cake that your friend shared, just this once," Diantha responded
"All right! She said yes Pikachu!" Ash said excitingly
"Pikachu!"
"At least he credited where it's due," Victor said
"You didn't pay for it," Gloria said
"I mean, I called out to them if they want a slice," Victor replied
"Battling against the champion eh?"
They all turned their heads to see Professor Sycamore came
"If you don't mind I'd come and watch it," Sycamore said
"Should we come with them?" Hop asked
"Yeah, I would want to see how the champion battle," Victor replied
"I want to see it too in curiosity," Gloria said
"What about you Naomi?" Hop asked
"Well for me... I'll go back to the base," she replied
"Okay, guess we'll be there watching them," Hop said
--------------------------------------------------------------
In a secluded battlefield
They're all in the secluded battlefield to watch Ash and Diantha's Pokemon battle since there's barely anyone going to the battlefield where they are
"I see you're going to use Pikachu, right?" Diantha asked
"Right!" Ash replied
"Pikachu!"
"Now, I really hope to see a mega evolution this time," Sycamore said while holding some sort of recording device that can detect data patterns
"Wouldn't Team Despair use this opportunity to send out a Megiddo?" Victor asked
"Don't worry, there's none currently," Gloria replied
"Battle begin!" Clement said while being the referee
"You may go first, Ash," Diantha said
"All right, Pikachu use Iron Tail!" Ash said
"Pika! Pikachu pika!" It jumped and uses Iron Tail on Gardevoir
Gardevoir then dodges the move
"Now follow it with quick attack!" Ash said
"Pika!" Pikachu then runs to Gardevoir to hit it
Gardevoir dodges every Pikachu's attempt to hit it
"Now use electro ball!" Ash said
Pikachu then produces a ball of electricity and throws it at Gardevoir
It then dodges it's move again
"Now Thunderbolt!"
"Pikachu!" It uses Thunderbolt on Gardevoir. It dodges every strike of it's lightning
"Huh? Wow it dodge thunderbolt too," Ash was surprised
"Pikachu's move didn't do a thing," Serena said
"Wow..."
"So it has high evasion, got it," Victor said
"And checkmate, shadow ball go!" Diantha said
Gardevoir then made a ball of darkness and throws it towards Pikachu
Pikachu got sent back by the shadow ball and falling. "Pikachu!" Ash then ran to Pikachu to caught it. He successfully caught it Pikachu but his back got hit by a tree, "Oh man that hurts, but I'm fine. Are you okay buddy?" He asked Pikachu
"Pikachu,"
"All right, the real battle starts now," Ash said
"Pikachu!"
'He really cares about his Pokemon. Ash is a very passionate trainer' Diantha's thoughts
Then suddenly, a cube was thrown out of nowhere and turns into a net that heading towards Gardevoir. The net turns to a cube that traps Gardevoir inside that made everyone shocked
"Prepare for trouble actress to actress,"
"But two or too many so more is really less,"
"To protect the world from competition."
"In keeping the actors tradition,"
"To perform with great style truth and love,"
"To allow great talent like a glove,"
"Jesse!"
"And James!"
"Team Rocket blasts off with award-winning grace!"
"Surrender now or prepare for us in your face!"
"Meowth thought that case!"
The Gardevoir in the cube was lifted up to their hot air balloon
"Team Rocket! You're doing it again!?" Ash said
"They're a bunch of really bad guys who go around stealing other people's Pokemon!" Serena said
"They steal Pokemon? What a despicable people," Diantha said
"Should we help them?" Hop asked
"Yeah-" Victor was about to say something but felt something around
"What is it?" Gloria asked
"I don't know, I have a bad feeling they're here," Victor replied
"Who?" Hop asked
Back to the rest
"Why thank you. We'll wear that as a badge of honour," James said
"Since I'm the best actress of all time, I accept your words," Jessie replied
"Quick Gardevoir! Use shadow ball!" Diantha said
Gardevoir then uses shadow ball to break free but didn't do anything
"Oh smashing," James said
"The only thing getting in and out of this box is sunlight," Meowth said
Jessie then throws another cube at them. The cube lands and produces smoke that block their view
"Bye bye chonk guys!" Meowth said in the distance
Then, a giant book appears and pages flipping can be visible on the sky. Team Rocket stops after seeing they can't get anywhere
After the smoke clears, they see their hot air balloon still there haven't moved. But the only things changed was the sky. It changed to where they see floating rocks above
"What is this?" Ash asked while seeing the sky
"Don't tell me... This is Wonder world!" Sycamore said while looking at it
"You know about this professor?" Serena asked
"Yes, it's a world different from ours that has properties like that from a fantasy world," he replied
"Hey! Who changed the skies!?" Meowth said that they heard
"This is our chance, Pikachu use Thunderbolt!" Ash said
"Pika! Pikachu!" It uses Thunderbolt on their balloons. Their hot air balloon collapse after the balloon was destroyed
Gardevoir got out of their box and ran up to Diantha. "Gardevoir! I'm glad you are safe," Diantha said
Team Rocket got out of their collapse balloon
"You guys, you stay here," Diantha said
"Why?" Ash asked
"You'll see," Diantha was about to mega evolve her Gardevoir but she saw something behind them
"Don't you think this is over! Pumpkaboo-" Jessie was about to throw her Pokemon out
"It seems I've found my prey's,"
They turned around to see the Medusa Megiddos behind them
"W-who are you!?" Jessie asked while they were scared
The three saw the Megiddo. "Medusa Megiddo," Victor said
"What does that Megiddo can do?" Hop asked
"Just like medusa, they can turn someone into stone by looking at their eyes," Victor replied
The Medusa Megiddo's eyes turns red and made Team Rocket turned into stone. The others was shocked to see them turned into stone by the Medusa Megiddo
"Everyone! Evacuate this way!" Victor shouted and they turned their heads
"Right!" They all ran away from the Megiddo while the three stayed behind
"Let's do this," Victor said then straps the Driver on his waist. Both straps their Drivers on their waist as well and took out their books and inserted into the Driver
"Henshin!" Then they understand the sword
"WONDER RIDER! Dragon! King Arthur!"
"Fantastic Lion!~"
"Lamp Do Hedgehog!"
They've transformed into their rider forms. Then, two more Medusa Megiddo appears and surrounding them
"Three medusa's?" Gloria said
"Three medusa's because of medusa having three sisters that's similar to her. Also don't look at them in the eyes if you don't want to turn into stone," Victor replied
"Didn't plan to," Hop replied
Then they individually charged at the medusa's. With Gloria, she's fighting the Medusa Megiddo and doing well at it. The Medusa uses it's serpent tail to hit her. She slash it away and pull it to get closer to it. The Megiddo uses it's eyes to turn her into stone but Gloria cleverly use reflective mirrors that hurts the Megiddo's eyes
She then sheaths her sword and press the trigger
"Reading Finish!"
Then unsheathed it
"NAGARE BATTOU!"
"Pegasus! Lion! Peter Fan! 3 Volumes Slash! WA-WA-WA-WATER!"
"Hydro Vortex!" She summons a whirlpool of water that lift the Megiddo up then levitates before sending a slash to the enemy. Then the Megiddo exploded into water
At Hop
He's also fighting well against the Megiddo while not looking at it's eyes to not turn into stone. The Megiddo tried it's best but was outmatched by Hop
Then he sheaths the sword and press the trigger
"Reading Finish!"
And press the trigger again
"Hedgehog! Alangina! 2 Volumes Strike! THU-THU-THUNDER!"
"Spiked Thunder Kicking Break!" Hop then jumped and does a kick at the Megiddo. He went through the Megiddo and it's sparks before exploding, defeating the Megiddo in the process
At Victor
He's knocked down the Megiddo and was about to use his finisher but someone slashed him from behind. Victor turned around to see Calibur
"Now then, show me the power of King of Arthur," Calibur said
Both of them turns their heads to see Calibur is fighting against Victor and ran up to them. Gloria stops when Zooous appeared in her Megid form
"I want to test how strong you are with that," Zooous said to her
Hop was about to be near Calibur but a man with a black leather jacket, black pants, shoes, has combed black hair. Gets in front of him
"Who are you?" Hop asked
The man turns to him, "Legeiel... And you'll remember that name," then, black smoke appears around him until it clears to show his Megid form
"A Megid?" Hop was surprised
Legeiel ran up to him to attack him with his weapon
To Victor
He's fighting Calibur with both of the weapon that is his Seiken and the Kingxcalibur. Calibur blocks all of his attack and clashed with the weapons, "I was right," then he kicks him away, "That power is best suited for me after all. So hand it over!"
Victor gets up after getting kicked back, "I won't let you get this power!" He replied and goes back to attack him
Calibur blocks his slashes and slash him back and he gets downed, "As you are now, you won't be able to save everyone," while approaching him to slash him again
"You're wrong! I can use this power to save everyone!" Victor responded and gets up to slash him
Calibur dodges all of it and slash him back. He backed off then something restraint Victor tightly and he turns to see the Medusa Megiddo is using it's Serpent tail around his body. He tried to get out of it's grasp but couldn't
"Now, turn to stone!" The Megiddo said while it's eyes turns bright red to turn him to stone
He tries his best to not stare at its eyes. Gloria sees this and ran towards the Megiddo while ignoring Zooous. She tried to hit the Megiddo but it deflect it with it's serpent tail. The Megiddo was going to turn him into stone but Gloria decided to be in front of the Megiddo to save him
The Megiddo glances at her and she briefly turns into stone. Victor was shocked to see her sacrifice herself to save him, "Gloria!" He shouted
Hop turns his head to see her turned into stone, "What the?" Before he gets slashed by Legeiel that he was fighting
"Your fight is with me!" Legeiel said
Victor broke free out of the serpent tail and ran to pick up her Seiken then grabs her Driver that cancelled out her transformation. Then he tried to use the Seiken to slash the Megiddo but got knocked back by Calibur
"Go meet with her in the afterlife," Calibur then scans the Jaaku Dragon book on the Kurayami's blade
"Finish Read!"
"Jaaku Dragon! Reading Flash!"
Then he unleashed a downward dark energy slash at him and got him sent back. Calibur was about to finish him with another dark energy slash again but Hop got in the way and uses his Book Gate to escape
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the Sword of Logos base
Naomi is reading a book about the past Sword of Logos members, "It says they've been disbanded for over 3 years..." While flipping the page, "The cause for this attack is from the Book of Omnipotent-" she was cut off when the two came back in the base
"We're back..." Hop said with a saddened tone
She turned to see them, "Welcome back you two," both of them were still silent. "What happened?" Naomi asked
Victor showed her Gloria's Driver and the Seiken. She then understand what happened, "Did she... Died?"
"No, she just turned into stone by the Medusa Megiddo," Hop responded
While Victor places the two items on the table and left the base
"What's wrong on with him?" Naomi asked
"Just give him time to think," Hop replied
At Victor
He's in the cafe behind the counter thinking about what he has done, "No... I shouldn't let my mistake control me... Just, why couldn't I... This is what I fear the most. That's having great power, but can't save everyone with it..." Victor said to himself
Then, Hop and Naomi got out of the fridge and goes up to Victor. "You're not turning into that worst version of you, aren't you?" Hop asked
He turns to him, "Of course not, I won't become a host for that anomaly like before. And I know she can be brought back if we defeat that Megiddo, the problem is that I can't use this power properly without Calibur interfering with me," then he showed them the King of Arthur book
"If you can't use it, then why did you obtain it in the first place?" Naomi asked
"Because I..." Victor didn't have an answer to this
"Victor, if you have something in your mind if you want to talk about. Just tell me or anyone who's close to you. Because we're working together, like a strong team. I would prefer to hear your worst problems than seeing you gone without explanation," Hop said
"Really...?" Victor asked and he nodded
"And also, you've made a promise to protect those who are in need," Naomi said
"Promise..." Then he slapped himself, "C'mon!... Hop, let's make a plan together to defeat them,"
"Right, tell me what your strategy," Hop asked
"This will be difficult because it's just the two of us left," Victor replied
"You boys need help?"
They turned their heads to see the same man who turned into Buster
"Mayer?/Buster?" Both said at the same time while being surprised he's back
"I heard there's a Megiddo attack in some part of the city, so I thought I'll help you guys out," Mayer responded
"That'll be great! We need someone to help us," Victor replied
--------------------------------------------------------------
At Ash and the others
They're hiding far from Team Despair by behind a building
"Who are those people?" Ash asked
"They look so scary!" Bonnie was terrified
"They look like bad guys but they're not here to steal other people's Pokemon or do any harm," Serena said
While Diantha was staring at them knowing who they are, 'Megids... I haven't seen those in 3 years... But unfortunately the surviving members are gone,'
"Because they're going to merge this world with Wonder world," Sycamore said that got their attention
"Wait really?" Ash asked
"Is that true, professor?" Clement asked
"Yes, I've read about these monsters called Megid's who can merge the wonder world with ours. But I don't know what's their goals are currently," Sycamore replied
Serena then see something and pointed it out, "Look over there!" She said that caught their attention. They all see Gloria that's turned to stone and was shocked
"That's Gloria," Ash said
"Poor her, her friends must be worried," Bonnie said
"There's must be a way to get her free, right?" Ash asked
"You can," Diantha responded
"Wait, you know?" Ash asked
"Yes, if you defeat that Megiddo, then she'll be back to normal. But the problem is, Pokemon moves aren't always effective against them," Diantha replied
"There must be another way," Clement said
"That is, to wait for Saber and his friends to be here to defeat them," Diantha replied
To Team Despair
There were only Legeiel who's in his human form, the Medusa Megiddo, and Calibur. Zooous isn't there because she left to rest from her injuries for fighting Gloria
Legeiel then spots them and smirks. Saber, Espada, and Buster who's in their base form, arrived for a rematch
"Looks like our opponent is here. Except for one of you who got turned to stone," Legeiel said before he was covered in black smoke that turned his into his Megid form
"I have something to say before we fight. One: evil bastards... Two: shall feel the earth's rage... Three: I'll pay you a visit, no questions asked!" Mayer said
"Victor, are you ready?" Hop asked
"Yes, let's go," Victor replied
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the flashback
In the Sword of Logos base
They're still planning how to defeat them. "So how do we defeat them?" Hop asked
"There's this book novel that Touma once showed me," Victor replied
"Tell us about it," Mayer asked
"This story is about him and his friends who saves cities and people. And I learned a lot about what was his plan in this exact situation we're in," he responded
"What were his plans?" Hop asked
"Hop, I want you to fight Calibur. But don't think too much about the person behind it and stick to our plan," Victor said to him
"Right, I'll try my best," he replied
"For Mayer, you'll be fighting Legeiel, since you said you had a lot of experiences as a Swordman and very strong too," Victor said to him
"You're talking to a professional here, kid," Mayer replied
"And for me, I'll fight the Megiddo with the power of King of Arthur. We'll definitely win this time with our bonds, together," Victor said
Both nods at his plans
--------------------------------------------------------------
Back to reality
The three are surrounded by them in the center. "You two, change forms now!" Victor said
"No need to say it twice," Hop said and took out Needle Hedgehog Wonder Ride Book
"Yeah, I've had couple of experience," Mayer took out Jackun To-Domamenoki book
Hop inserted his books into his Driver. While for Mayer, he insert it into the Dogouken Gekido. Both of them changed form
"Lamp Do Hedgehog!"
"Jack and the Beanstalk! Ittō Ryōdan! Devide the land! Dogo! Dogo! Dogouken Gekido!~"
"Gekido reprint! The absolutely armored greatsword delivers a mighty blow from the north!"
They've changed form just like what they've planned. Calibur was going for Saber but was blocked by Espada by his Seiken and pushed back. Buster then went for Legeiel to fight him. For Saber, he's going to fight the third and last Medusa Megiddo
The King of Arthur book lights up and he took it out and opens the page
"King of Arthur!"
He then put it into his Driver and unsheathed the sword. The two books appeared and open their pages
"When two volumes meet, that power will reside in the sacred sword! WONDER RIDER!"
"Dragon! King Arthur! The blade is sharpened by these two attributes!"
Saber now has King of Arthur's power and the Kingxcalibur on his left hand, "King Arthur believe in his comrades, the knights of the Round Table, allowing him to conquer any foe in his way!"
"You're such a pain to beat. How about I'll defeat you so I avenge my sisters!" Then the Megiddo grows in size and going to the larger rock that's above
Saber then took out the book and scans it in the Kingxcalibur
"King of Arthur!"
"Kingexcalibur! And now... It transformed from a sword! The huge swordsman wakes up! King of Arthur!"
Then, a mecha that was summoned by the Kingxcalibur appeared to assist Saber to defeat the giant Megiddo
The giant mech was mimicking what Saber is doing. Saber was controlling the mech by moving his hand for it to slash the Megiddo
After the Megiddo was knocked away, the giant rock that it was carrying is going to hit the ground. "If that rock hits, then this place would be destroyed. So King Arthur, let me cut it!" Victor said
Then, the robe on his left side goes on his head then lengthen and starts floating for King Arthur to goes up to him to pick him up like a sword
"When I said I'd cut it myself this isn't what I meant!" Victor shouted
"Kamen rider Saber!"
"Oh well, this is my purpose now..." Victor said
--------------------------------------------------------------
At Ash and others
They just saw Saber just became a sword by King Arthur
"Did Saber just became a saber?"
"That's one way to put it,"
"Yeah, I agree,"
They all nodded until they turned around to see Falchion with them and freaked out
"Since I need to be useful for the team, I'll have to kill you!" Falchion said while pointing his sword at them
"You guys, stay here," Diantha said and walks toward Falchion
"But-"
"It's okay," she replied
"So you want your death wish?" Falchion asked
"No, but go show you me and Gardevoir's strong bond," Diantha said while Gardevoir gets in front of him
"Strong bond?" Falchion laughs, "Don't make me laugh any more,"
Then, the round stones around their necks starts to light up. The energy produces from the stones are connected to each other. The other were amazed by the mega evolution that's happening
"That light,"
"Is that what I think it is?" Clement asked
"It is! That's when a Pokemon mega evolves!" Sycamore replied while recording the mega evolution
"Gardevoir, now mega evolve!" Diantha said to her Pokemon
Gardevoir starts to change forms, the body changes shape, and it's constantly changing until it's done and turns into it's mega evolved form
"Check it out!"
"Woah, it mega evolve,"
"What a sight!"
"Excellent!"
"It's so cool!"
"Marvelous,"
"Hmph, don't you think changing forms will help you win. Since Pokemon moves aren't always effective against us," Falchion responded
"Use shadow ball!" Diantha said
The Gardevoir then makes a ball of darkness and shoots it at Falchion
"Too easy," Falchion then slashed the shadow ball but it explodes, sending him back, "What kind of shadow ball is that!?" While looking at it and getting up
"And checkmate. Excellent work, use moon blast," Diantha said
Gardevoir then channels moon energy above it and make a pink ball then throws it to Falchion
Falchion then panicked and ducked down to not get hit. The attack is heading straight towards Calibur that hits him instead. Falchion stands up and turns around to see Calibur is rolling over then starts sparking, "Crap! Calibur is about to reveal his identity! We need to retreat!" He ran towards Calibur and they disappeared alongside with Legeiel who was still fighting Buster
"Awesome!"
"You did it!"
They all ran up to her after seeing the successful fight against Falchion before. The mega Gardevoir turns back to normal self
"Hey look, it changed back,"
"Right, what makes mega evolution different from ordinary evolution is it isn't permanent," Sycamore responded
They all turned their heads to see Saber has now destroyed the large rock and defeated the Megiddo soon after
"He did it as well!"
Then, the sky above them changes back to normal. The book that's covering the parts of the city where they are has disappeared after the Megiddo was defeated
"Look! The sky is back!"
Then, Gloria turned back to normal after the Megiddo was defeated. "They... They actually did it," Gloria said
Saber turns back to normal and ran up to her, "Gloria, you had me so worried there!" Victor said
"I know that was reckless of me, but hey, it turns out great," she replied
"But don't repeat that ever again," Victor replied
"And don't repeat to be near death again for you," Gloria responded
Espada and Buster went up to them. "You guys, I'm glad that we save this part of city for now," Mayer said
"Yeah, it was a lot of work making Calibur to waste his time to not attack you," Hop said
"Yeah, couldn't believe that worked," Victor said
"But it worked from the result of it," Gloria responded
"Right, let's go back," Victor then uses his book gate to go back to the cafe
While they were doing this, the others were watching them
"Gloria is friends with them?"
"It seems like it,"
"I wonder where are they going?"
While for Diantha, she's thinking about the Sword of Logos has came back
--------------------------------------------------------------
Tassel then falls from the roof after he crashed landed into the roof of the house, "Ouch, that hurts..." Then he looks at the camera, "O-oh! King of Arthur's secret power was that giant warrior, huh? Anyway, the other cast were surprised to see Gloria is with the riders and I wonder, how long will they know what their identities are? Well for this story is unknown of course, next chapter their identities won't be revealed. It's much later than that, if it weren't for two chapter long filler were in our way. But I'm excited to see what the future chapter going to show us, I really can't wait!" Tassel said

Episode 6: Borrowing
Hop is seen sitting on the chair in the cafe and scrolling through on his phone. Until Victor got out of the fridge with a laptop in his hand
"Hop," Victor called him out
He stops scrolling and turns his head, "Yeah?"
"Can I borrow this laptop real quick? I need to finish some work," he asked
"Sure dude," he replied
"Alright, thanks," Victor goes back to the fridge to do the work while Hop goes back to scrolling
Minutes later Victor swung open the fridge door loudly that startled Hop
"What wrong?" Hop asked
"I... Don't want to talk about the things you watched..." He puts Hop's laptop on the counter before going back to the fridge
Hop then thought about what was in his laptop, "Wait... Did I forgot to delete that...?"
Ends.
