[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.*

Every rider?

[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.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

I have to do something!

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

Trying to prevent it did nothing. What can we do now that it's started?

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

Ryou-chan shouldn't be fighting anymore!

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

... I know. It wasn't supposed to happen like this.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

What can we do? Isn't there anything?

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Screw it, I'm just going to cry.] Every time I dream it, they all die. And I can only stand there.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

I don't understand why this has to happen.

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

Neither do I. I thought that if we fixed what was wrong in those worlds, that everything would be alright. It wasn't supposed to be this way!

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

Worlds?

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

Every world has its own Riders. Den-O, that's your world. We traveled to those worlds, hoping that this wouldn't ...

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

. . . I see.

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. We couldn't ... do anything. In the end, it's still like this.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

. . . [ goes to hold your hand ]

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Holds it, fairly tightly.] Please run. Before you get hurt.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

[ grips your hand ] You too.

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

... I have to see this through.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

Then I won't let you be alone.

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

... thank you for everything, Airi.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

Mm, no. Thank you for being here with me, as well.

[ridestherider.livejournal.com]

[Not letting go of your hand, Airi.] I ... wouldn't blame you if you did, but please try not to hate him. ... he didn't choose this.

[coffeejesus.livejournal.com]

I won't since he is Natsumi-chan's important friend.
