This choice: Use the decks to track down some of the other Riders • Go Back... -Anthony's point of view-
Eric struck me as the type of person who doesn't like to lose. Fortunately, he was mature enough to listen to my reasoning and agreed that using the decks to locate the other Riders was the best course of action. Together, we focused and searched for any nearby deck, we quickly found that there was one nearby, in fact, it seemed to be inside the normal world version of my house.
"There's another Kamen Rider this close?" Eric wondered out loud in shock.
"There's only one person still in our world's version of this house, it has to be her." I said as I went to the mirror.
"Her?" Eric asked in confusion, but I was already on the other side by that point. He soon appeared behind me after I began heading to my sister's room. "Who are you talking about?"
"My little sister." I replied as I opened the door to her room. She was sitting on her bed looking at the Siren Deck in confusion.
"Scottie, do you know what this is?" She asked, using my family's nickname for me.
"Scottie?" Eric asked, confused.
"Family nickname." I simply replied. I could tell that he was currious why my nickname is Scottie, but he was willing to wait.
"Who's that, and why is he in the house?" Christina asked in surprise, obviously wondering why a stranger was in the house. After an introduction and a long explanation (along with a demonstration she was skeptical at first), she was helping us search. As the minutes passed, I watched Eric slowly pace the living room floor, keeping a sharp eye on the windows and mirrors.
"You really should relax." I told him, slightly irritated by his pacing. "It's not good for you to be this wound up."
"We have no guarantee that the decks will warn us of in coming trouble while we are searching for other Riders." Eric replied flatly. "We must be vigilant."
"Point." I said. "However-"
"-I think can we do it without pacing." Christina finished, already knowing basically what I was going to say.
Eric stopped, realizing that he was indeed pacing. "Sorry. I've been in a few situations, in my time, where I was forced to defend myself in near total darkness. I had no idea where my attacker was going to come at me next. Those minions remind me of those times."
I gave a low sigh, but we nodded in understanding and decided to change the subject.
"With all of us searching, we should find another Rider very soon." I told him.
"Yes." Eric. "But that same Rider could be an enemy. I'm not trying to be pessimistic, just realistic." He turned to me, serious. "In my experience, nothing nothing can be taken for granted, we must stay alert."
I nodded. He had a valid point.
Then, we heard the roar of a motorcycle outside as we sensed a Rider nearby. I looked out and found a beautiful young woman in a dark blue skin tight bodysuit with heels dismounting off of a white motorcycle. She was a little shorter than me, with long, dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. As she walked towards the kitchen door, I took a step closer to investigate. But Eric quickly rose his arm to block my path.
I turned to him, annoyed but stopped as I saw a certain deep focus in his eyes.
"What is it?" I asked him.
"Look at our decks." He said quietly, watching the girl slowly approach the house.
I brought my deck to eye level, as he showed his and Christina looked at hers, and we found that all of our decks were flashing in a familiar way, warning us of danger. Who ever was coming to the door, she was not an ally!
We quickly grabbed our decks got ready to transform.
"I know this house like the back of my hand." I said. "If we work together, we might be able to trap her."
"Bad idea." Eric warned. "It could be very hard to fight in such a small space. We have to take this outside. If we go out the front and circle around, we might be able to catch her off guard and surround her. Still, it's your call."
There was no time for discussion. I had to decide fast!
