Title: Another World
Chapter: 5 - Confrontation ~ To the next world
Fandom: Kamen Rider Decade/Den-O
Character: Kadoya Tsukasa, Hikari Natsumi, Kaito Daiki
Summary: Post series. Finally Tsukasa started on another journey.
----------------------------
Natsumi stepped out of the amusement park feeling refreshed. She stretched her arms wide before pulling on Tsukasa's arm before continuing to sight-see.
"Ah! This felt so nice!" exclaimed Natsumi as she started stretching her arms out. She turned towards Tsukasa before smiling. "It's been a while since we've been to outings like these... don't you think, Tsukasa?"
Tsukasa awkwardly nodded to her as Natsumi whistled. "Maa... with the whole avoiding the disaster journey we had before, I guess it can't be helped. We can't actually go sightseeing in that kinda situation after all..."
"Hmm... so now that all that was over, think it's a good time to go out dating... then?"
Tsukasa and Natsumi turned towards the voice as Daiki sneered at them. He sighed.
"Seriously I envy the two of you... you guys can be so carefree, now that things seemed to go your way."
Tsukasa snarled at him. "What's the problem with you, Kaito? Do you still have some issues with me?"
"Yes, I still do!" Daiki shouted back, suddenly incensed. "It's because you're still so clueless and didn't remember anything else from your past. Yes, I have an issue with you!"
Tsukasa grabbed Daiki roughly. "So then, why haven't you left already? You could always go on your own separate journey, so why DON'T you?"
Daiki pushed him away just as roughly. "I would if I could, IDIOT!" Tsukasa blinked as Daiki's reaction was unexpected. He turned back towards the direction of the studio as Tsukasa and Natsumi followed him back.

"Unh... why on earth I ended up helping out with the groceries?" moaned Yuusuke as he lugged the bag of groceries onto the table. Kivaara flew down to his face and pecked his cheek.
"Ara... don't mind it, Yuusuke," the little bat said silkily. "In the end all of these would be consumed by you and the others. Don't be such a spoiled child, Yuusuke!"
From the kitchen, Eijirou poked his head out towards them before chuckling softly. Yuusuke groaned again.
"Honestly why am I the only one? Natsumi-chan and Tsukasa even... went out dating by themselves! I want to go sightseeing too!"
Kivaara bobbed herself against Yuusuke's head out of annoyance. "Don't be a spoilsport! Natsumi-chan needed to get her own time off. Don't get jealous!"
"I'm not jealous!" Yuusuke started to say before there was a commotion at the living room. Both of them got out to see what's happening as Natsumi, Tsukasa and Daiki entered the studio.
Daiki pushed Tsukasa away as the latter grabbed him in the middle of confrontation.
"Just lay it off, can you? Until the time you actually remember the rest of your past memories, then you'll have the rights to pick a fight with me!"
"Kaitou-kun..." Natsumi started to say as she turned to look at Daiki. A part of her wanted to reach out to him, seeing him looking so pained. Something... must have troubled Daiki lately to make him so troubled. Yet...
She turned towards Tsukasa as both men continued to argue. Even now, despite that time when they have arrived on his original world—despite the events that happened after they reached the Rider War world, there was still... a lot of things that Tsukasa could not remember about his past life. In particular, the memories and events that happened to Tsukasa before she first found him injured at the side of the road.
Occasionally, she had thought that it would have been nice if Tsukasa could recover the rest of his missing memories. Partly so that he—and the rest of them—could find out what really happened in the past that had caused the many worlds and different dimensions to start converging and destroying each other to become one. She had thought that if that part of the past was known, maybe... Tsukasa could have been able to be more at ease with himself and his abilities to cross into different dimensions.
But watching over him ever since the last Rider war, she started to accept that they should not force Tsukasa to try recover all of his memories so fast. Tricky things they were... memories. Some things that you might want to remember but forgot, and the things you rather forget be remembered. It was something that you could not control. She knew that deep inside, Tsukasa was really trying his best to recover all of his memories. That was why, even when Tsukasa did not manage to remember anything else; she did not want to put a stress on him.
If only she could tell this to Daiki. She did not... do it in the end, since Tsukasa might not like it if she did. Tsukasa was a bit edgy about his own image after all. He liked it to appear strong.
Tsukasa suddenly gasped as Natsumi looked up towards him. He had been standing before the studio backdrop, and slowly backing away from it. She stared at him curiously before noticing that the picture on the backdrop was changing.

Tsukasa bit his lips as he recognized the scenery. A scene of a forest at the edge of a cliff. There were two figures facing each other inside the backdrop. He frowned.
"Blade... and Black Joker."
He saw that Joker's form before yet he knew that this figure inside this picture was not the same one. And he knew that Blade inside the picture, was not the one he met at the world of Blade he went before. This was not the world he had arrived to before. It was the other one, his destination after this was that world. Kenzaki Kazuma's.
He knew that one day he would have to meet that man again... yet he never thought it would be so soon. Of the many names that popped up into his head revolving the identities of the Riders of the Original Worlds, more than Kurenai Wataru—he was more afraid of meeting Kenzaki again.
He could not forget it after all, how hostile that man was to him ever since they first met. While he already got used to all that with Narutaki instigating many of the Alternate World's Kamen Riders against him—to hate him and fight him—he could not help but feel Kenzaki's hostilities towards him was because of other reasons. And that reason... might be related to that past he had forgotten. As much as he wanted to learn of his past, a part of him was afraid of that...
Almost immediately, Tsukasa felt his legs turning into mush...
"Tsukasa!" Daiki exclaimed as he caught him from falling. He looked at him worriedly. "Oi! You all right?"
Tsukasa shakily nodded his head towards him.
"The world... of the Original Blade."

Tsukasa opened the door of the studio as he walked out into a new place. This time the studio was located at a countryside. Not many buildings could be seen around the area, the nearest town or city must be a bit of a distance from here. But he could feel it, the place where he would be able to find the people he needed to meet—it was near. The trick now would be if he could gather enough courage to walk out and meet up with those people.
It seemed that his journey would not lack of its share of obstacles... after all.
