Soul Saga ???: Kamen Rider Zero-One 01

Chapter 1: Enter the Shooting Wolf

As Aruto, the former Kamen Rider Zero-One, looked at Zay. The Driver was on the table. Aruto sat across from Zay, his eyes glued to her as she fiddled with the Zero-One Driver on the table in front of her. He took a deep breath and clasped his hands around his cane, looking down at it for a moment before turning his gaze back to her.

"Being Kamen Rider Zero-One, it's not easy," he began, his voice low and serious. "It's a huge responsibility, not just to protect people, but to live up to their expectations."

Zay looked up at him, a hint of confusion and curiosity in her eyes. Aruto took a deep breath and continued.

"You have to be willing to put your life on the line for others, to always be ready to face any challenge that comes your way. But it's not just about fighting, it's about inspiring people, giving them hope, showing them that there's still good in the world even in the darkest of times." He paused for a moment, his expression growing more solemn.

"But at the same time, being Zero-One can be a burden. It can take a toll on you, both physically and emotionally. It's a constant battle, one that can never be won but only fought with all your heart." Zay listened intently, taking in every advice  that Aruto said. She could see the weight of his words on his face, the burden that he carried as Kamen Rider Zero-One.

"But it's also a privilege," Aruto continued, his voice growing stronger. "To have the power to make a difference, to be able to help people when they need it most. That's what makes it all worth it." He looked up at Zay, a small smile on his face "And who knows, maybe you could be the next one to take up the mantle."

Across town, a young teenager with greasy black hair and eyes full of hatred is chasing after the Dodo Bird robot, he couldn't help but think about how his life had taken a turn for the worse after he dropped out of high school. He had always been a troublemaker, but he never thought he would end up like this, chasing after robots for a living.

He'd been recruited by a shady organization that promised him money and power if he helped them in their robot hunting missions. At first, he thought it's just a game, then soon he realized that these robots were dangerous and could cause serious harm to people.

The teen had no choice but to continue working for the organization, as he didn't have any other means of making a living. He was desperate to get out of this life, though he didn't know how. He had a gun shaped device on his belt. He placed a key into it.

He hears "Bullet! The elevation increases as the bullet is fired." He stood there in a wolf themed suit with his face being covered by a blue helmet.

The robot bird gets away. The Kamen Rider Vulcan looked down at his Shotriser. His mind was constantly changing what he should be doing and what he wants to do. He knew what was the right choice.

"Agent Vulcan, what's your status?" He heard in his helmet. His face was sweating up a storm. He didn't have a good reply. He knew he didn't have the authorization to use the Vulcan Key.

"Sir, I engaged the target and used the Vulcan Key to pursue him." Dan answered the leader of his squad. "I lost him." His eyes were almost shooting out of his head. He was afraid of getting dismissed from the case. He knew this was his only chance of getting his diploma.

"Vulcan. Report back to the rondaview point, we'll continue from there." The Squad Leader tells the Rookie to do it.

"Alright, I'm heading back." He deactivated his transformation device and headed to the certain spot.
