[AU][BAD END] Because we probably won't get a Rider War in camp. :(

[rideseveryone]

*In the woods, there is a tremendous explosion, destroying everything nearby, creating a large, smoking clearing.

At the center of this explosion, Decade stands. His face has changed shape, eyes becoming more sinister, and the Signal Pointer at his forehead becoming purple. At his feet lie the smoking remains of a belt.

The Destroyer of Worlds has come.*

[Nightmares do come true, dresses and all.]

... Decade.

[rideseveryone]

*He just looks over, and doesn't say a word.

The only noise to be heard is the cracking of the fire, and the sound of him drawing a card from the Ride Booker.*

[Backing away some.]

Tsukasa-kun!

[rideseveryone]

... Not yet.

*ATTACK RIDE - INVISIBLE.*

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Damn it!]

Tsukasa-kun!

[reflectionmine.livejournal.com]

Natsumi-chan, what is this?

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[... probably already crying.]

Shinji ...

[reflectionmine.livejournal.com]

Why are they fighting?

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

This is what we were afraid of.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

. . . Natsumi-chan. What's going on?

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

... it's really happening.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

. . . why is Ryou-chan--

What is happening?

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Turning.] The destruction of every Rider that exists.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

Every rider?

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Just nods.] You shouldn't be here; you're going to get hurt. Or worse.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

But Ryou-chan is fighting.

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Sorry, my voice is probably breaking.] Everything in Decade's path is going to be destroyed. We can't stop it. I don't think he wants you to get hurt.

[rideseveryone]

*SOME TIME LATER, Decade approaches Natsumi. He walks with a slight limp, his armor is smoking and charred, and the helmet is chipped and cracked.

However... he is victorious.*

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[I am. Not sure if I want to run away or forward.]

Tsukasa-kun ...

[rideseveryone]

*He holds out one arm.

A slightly scorched pink camera hangs from his hand.*

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[She stares at it for a moment and then reaches out, shakily.]

[rideseveryone]

*Waits until she has the camera, and then lets go.

Then, camera given, he turns to leave once more.*

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Oh no you don't, not this time.]

Tsukasa-kun!

[rideseveryone]

*He stops moving, but gives no response.*

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Stepping forward, just a little, but holding the camera tightly.]

What ... what will you do, now?
