Title: Belief
Series: Kamen Rider Drive
Characters: Shijima Kiriko, Saijo Kyuu, Sawagami Rinna
Summary: Circa ep 25 & 26. Once more, Kiriko wanted to place her belief on Chase.
----------------------------------------------------
“Thank you.”
Kiriko paused for a moment before shoving her phone back into her pocket. Why did... she say that? Did she... just thanked him for shooting himself, in order to get her this Roidmude sample?
“Kiriko-chan, is something wrong?”
Kiriko blinked before remembering that Kyuu-chan was beside her. She shook her head.
“Umm, no. I'm.... fine.” She tried to smile to prove her point.
Kyuu turned his head towards the direction Chase went, before looking back at her. He frowned, as if just remembering something.
“Wasn't that... the Roidmude suspect that Lieutenant Otta met on a case, few weeks ago? Did he really... become good now? Why did you come here to see him? What did Rinna-san have to do with this? Why did she want a Roidmude sample?”
She sighed. Then again, after seeing her with Chase... and possibly hearing her earlier conversation with him; there's no way she could convince Kyuu that there wasn't anything fishy going on. And Kyuu must have also noticed Hunter.
Kiriko hastily picked herself up before urging him to leave. “It's... hard to explain. Let's get back now,”

Kiriko glanced around to make sure that Kyuu wasn't following her before heading to the Drive Pit. She stared at the piece of Mashin Chaser's armour as she stopped in front of the entrance.
To be honest, she didn't have any plans prepared before meeting Chase in that forest. On how... to get this sample of an evolved Roidmude. She did thought of asking for Chase to help—but she really didn't think too far. She thought of taking Chase back to the station—it might be tricky to try to sneak Chase in though—but it was worth the try.
She recalled Chase asking her if it was right for her to push him to betray his own kind. His words bothered her... because yes, that was wrong.
Kiriko sighed. She thought she could ask Chase on what to do instead. But that didn't go so well. Kiriko ran her thumb on the bullet mark left on the small piece of metal. It caught her by surprise to see Chase shooting himself. Guess, that was enough to shake her composure. Hopefully he was alright.
The door opened as Rinna gave a cry. “Kiriko-chan! I was just about to look for you. Where's the samp—”
She showed Rinna the piece of Chaser's armour as Rinna gasped.
“Whoa, lucky! But how did you...?”
Kiriko stopped her in mid-sentence before glancing to look at Krim's direction on the desk. “I'll tell you later... and I'd have to ask for a request from you, Rinna-san.”
Rinna gave her a puzzled look before nodding cheerfully. “Okay! Leave it to me.”
She stared at the older woman as Rinna started to work on upgrading Krim. Kiriko could see him grimacing as Rinna gleefully worked her magic. Kiriko sighed.
No doubt after this was done she'd have to tell Krim and Rinna about Chase's survival.
