Mirror [3/4]
Title: Mirror
Series: Kamen Rider Decade, Kamen Rider Zi-O
Characters: Kadoya Tsukasa, Ora, Tokiwa Sougo, mentions of Woz
Summary: He was summoned to be someone's obstacle. But he ended up meeting someone whose fate mirrors his own.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Oma Zi-O is gone."
Tsukasa paused in the midst of drinking his coffee before looking up to see Ora coming to view. The female Time Jacker smiled.
"Guess you made the right call about sending him into the future..."
Tsukasa frowned slightly at Ora's choice of words. His 'right call', as she said it... wasn't supposed to yield an immediate result. Not like this.
"I've gotta say, I didn't think he'd make it so easy."
Tsukasa got up from his chair, as he sauntered towards the railing in front of him. And he thought that the kid Sougo would react a bit more aggressively after seeing what his future self would become. Rebel a bit, have a bit more backbone or something. Try to defy fate! But perhaps Oma Zi-O had appeared to be too big of a figure for the kid to face that the actions of his future self scared him so much. So rather than to try to continue believing in himself to not end up being an evil overlord, the kid decided to give up altogether. The kid was still what...? Sixteen... seventeen years old?
Tsukasa sighed.
"Now what will I do for my own plan...?"
"What're you talking about?"
Ora spoke from behind him as he belatedly realized that he'd spoken his thoughts aloud. He turned to face her while maintaining his aloofness.
"Nothing important," he said immediately, trying to change the subject. "What're you guys going to do?"
Ora started to speak carelessly of their plans, dropping her guards on him as she thought about finding the next ruler candidate. It's just as he wanted anyway as the female Time Jacker paid him less attention now that he appeared to have achieve what the Time Jacker wants.
So now he should be able to act more freely. Since even if Sougo's actions may have changed things, he didn't think that fate would let go of its hold on the kid so easily. So there should still be things that he could do.

The other Time Jackers has also made their own moves as expected. And that was to kill Sougo before finding a replacement to take the kid's place. As he thought, it wouldn't be so easy for Sougo to relinquish his fate to continue becoming Kamen Rider Zi-O. And as if the kid's retainer Woz wouldn't do something about that as well.
But he really had to give it to the kid. Sougo's determination as to not depend on his Kamen Rider power was really commendable. So perhaps, Sougo wasn't really the weakling that he thought the kid was...
"I won't let anyone hurt my subjects. And if it means protecting them, I won't hesitate to risk my life!"
Tsukasa couldn't help smiling at that, even more as Geiz rushed over and scolded the kid and reminding Sougo that he didn't have his power to do anything at the moment. Have to say that he really liked how things were going right now...
Tsukasa hopped over towards Ora's side as the Time Jacker walked over towards the scene casually.
"I thought the excitement was over, but this is quite the party." He turned to his side to glance towards Ora. "Oi. So whose side am I on here?" he added, just to be cheeky.
"Why don't you pick?" came the irritated reply.
As you wish...
He'll stay around for a bit while longer just to make things interesting, and then later he'll leave. After all, he himself had a different plan for the kid.

"Zi-O! Use this!"
"All right! I'll become an overlord. And then I'll save the world!"
In the end, things turned out to be as interesting as he wanted. Just as he thought, giving Geiz his ridewatch earlier on was a good move. Since sooner or later the ridewatch would still end up in Sougo's hand, as the one who should be able to make use of the Decade ridewatch to its fullest potential. And he could see that the kid was able to catch on quick. The kid even got the better of him by using Ex-Aid's form to overturn the odds he laid out on the kid and his friend.
That was as good as it gets, and he could sense that his presence was no longer needed for the role that was required of him. That Woz should be satisfied with this.
With this interference, Sougo's future should become less rigid than how it was before.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A/N: A thought crossed my mind earlier while writing this. That perhaps the fact that the new future had opened up shortly after this point could be attributed to Decade's intervention. I mean, that should be how the AR rider worlds started in the first place.
