"I'm terribly sorry for our...ck of hospitality." She said calmly in a soft spoken tone.

  A masked woman dressed in a nicely tie suit, bowed down and greeted Takune with elegance. Despite that nice outward behavior, he can still see an ominous air around her.

  "How is your body doing by the way ?" She inquired, taking a step closer to inspect his body more carefully .

  Takune look down with a dumbfounded expresion, instinctively his hand has move up into a guard stance, making a fist ready to fight without his command.

  Weirder even, is the stance is not something he has learned. Right palm open forward, left hand formed a fist by his side.

  "Wonderfull, it seemed like your body have adjusted perfectly to the augmentation progcess. Our head doctor will be please greatly by this news." The woman seemed happy, but for all the wrong reason to him.

  'Focus, i need to focus.' He remined himself be on guard while facing the woman.

  Right now he is a clueless prisoner, he need to py the part correctly. So, he pretented to furrowed his eyes brow, faking to be a someone that doesn't know who or where they was taking to, so then he asked the woman.

  "Wh-who are you ? What have you done...to my body?" Finally, he was able to get the word out of his throat.

  "Ah, right where are my manners." The woman snapped out of the state and get on one knee while taking in one of his hand.

  "Mister, my name is delix, first captain Delix and i, on behalf of our wonderfull organization welcome you...... To the great S.H.O.C.K.E.R!" The woman introduced herself with a loud procmation and making a dramatic pause revealed the name of the organization that is Takune's captor.

  If he can see under her mask, he will surely find a wide grin extending from ear to ear. Her action was genuine, a wide smile that blossomed from what he guessed is pure joy ?

  "Mister, may i know your name ?"

  "Taku-" he halted, should he even able to remember his name ? What do they know about him ?

  "I see, what a wonderfull name in addition to us. Sir Taku." Lifting his hand up while she rise. "Please, will you come with me mr.Taku ? I can expin to you everything as i take you." She continued, gesturing to the door with her other hand. All the while holding on to his hand.

  'apparently not much.' He nodded.

  ----------

  The first captain or Delix, enthusiastically gestures to the high-tech surroundings as they lead Takune through the sprawling corridors of the S.H.O.C.K.E.R base.

  "Welcome to our state-of-the-art facility!" She says with a grin. Takune following right behind her with a colr around his neck, one that was put on him for tracking purpose in case he got 'lost' while they were touring.

  The two is walking in a hallway with a one way gsswindow showing the experiment to let Takune have a clear view of what they were doing in each room.

  "Here, you'll find our advanced research bs, where we develop all kinds of cutting-edge technology."

  In one room that were showing a normal person watching a rge tv screen, in another there is perfume being tested.

  "Our goal is to make the world better pce for humanity."

  "To your left, you’ll see the cybernetic enhancement chamber—where our operatives undergo modifications." She said, showing him the room filled occupant.

  All of them were missing a limb or two, they were fitted with mechanical parts that alow them to run, jump, swim, even better than a normal human being. Takune can even see one woman who has her arm repced lifting a tank up with that one repcement arm.

  "Am i, like them ?" Takune asked, looking down at his own hand.

  "Of course not."

  "You're much more."

  "The only augmented unit ever to be a male, you're build so much more than a repcement arm or leg. Your whole body is augmented." She stated, for a seccond Takune throught she would go in to more detail.

  "Ah....but i think you should met our researchers if you have any question about that, i'm sure they would be delighted to help." Sneakily, she changed back to the tour. "Now to over here, we have the data analysis room, packed with supercomputers crunching billions of calcutions per second." The room is a massive computer with number running so fast, it might cause epilepsi to a normal person.

  "Behind there is the prototype testing grounds—i would advice you to not go there yet, some of the devices are still a bit... unpredictable." She chuckles. "So....what do you think ? Impressive, isn’t it ?"

  Takune looked at all the room they just walk through. "Yes, they are." He had to admit, it was impresive that they were able to create all of these achievement.

  'If only the inhuman part were not involved.' He throught.

  On the surface everything everything is for th good, but if one to take a closer look. They can see the Tv showing is a brainwashing test, the modified people were training for combat, even the computer is using human brain for it's own calcutions power.

  Everything here is indeed build for the betterment of human but only if they were be subdued. It is all an eborate lie, made to convince him to join their evil cause.

  "How do i fit into this ?"

  The Shocker agent stands tall, eyes gleaming with calcuted confidence as they address him. "Join us, imagine what you could accomplish with Shocker’s resources, with our technology enhancing your abilities. Together, we could shape the future, create order from the chaos, and ensure real control where it matters. The world is already broken—why not rebuild it on our terms? Join us, and help build a better world."

  Takune stood in there in the hallway, his eyes shifting between her face and the hidden camera in the conner of the room. His arms were crossed tightly over his chest, and his jaw clenched as if he were holding back words he didn’t want to say.

  He shifted his weight, staring at the ground, his hand brushing the edge of his belt—the symbol of his power as a Kamen Rider. A deep sigh escaped him as he finally looked up, meeting their gazes with a mix of uncertainty and resolve.

  “what do i have to do ?” he muttered, his voice barely above a whisper, betraying the conflict within his own heart and mind.
