Last time, on our hero's adventure, these three things happened! First, Eiji received a mysterious letter from a mysterious sender! Second, Eiji arrives at the designated location only to hear screaming from within! Third, with the power of OOO, he meets with the finale of a battle! Now, what awaits our hero on his current adventure? "Man, it's been a while since I've gotten out like this! Last time I got a little wild, but I think I'm getting used to it!" With these words, Eiji enters into GYM, choosing to take a seat on the couch by the door. He reclines as he seems to reminisce over fond memories. "Haa... nothing like Egypt!"

The woman would shrug to herself, having waited long enough to see if anyone else is showing up. As she begins walking out to the door, however, she'd spot the man sitting on a couch and look at him curiously. "Ah, do you happen to own this place? It seems far too well kept to be abandoned, but I can't find anyone working despite an unlocked door..." She brings a hand up to her chin, the use of it seems to be some kind of fighting ring, and given what she's seen so far that sounds like the sort of place people might pass through around here... In short, she might find some info.

In all his elegance, Eiji sits dumbfounded by the assumption of his ownership. "Me...? The owner...? No no no... That'd be... uh... Kalib was it? He usually leaves the door open, probably cause there aren't many thieves around here. If he's here, I think he'd be behind the counter..." Eiji rubs the back of his head. "Y'know, usually there'd be someone fighting about now... Ah! If you're looking for someone to spar, I'd be happy to help you!"

Hilda would laugh for a moment, Kalib huh? Maybe he's seen Alto around... But neither here nor there. "Yes, that seems likely, at any rate, I guess I'll be going now..." The woman would start to walk off, but Eiji's mention of a fight causes her to turn around once again. A scythe with a white handle and red/black blade taking shape in her hand, green and blue flowers covering the back of it. "On the other hand, I haven't really been in a proper fight since getting here... Very well, if you'd care to then I'll show you the power of the Witch of Time." Hilda walks off, wandering into the main room and taking her place at the end of a fighting ring. "Well, I guess I'll let you have the first move here. I'm curious about the people of this world in fact." She grips the scythe tightly, eyes narrowing as she prepares to begin moving at a moment's notice.

Eiji steps toward the ring, retrieving a silver and blue box from under his cloaks. He places it onto his waist. A silver belt extends from the ends to make a belt. He pulls a black booklet with blue accents from beneath his cloak to retrieve three medals. They each match the same grey color. "Time witch? I guess I'll be using the power of the earth then! Maybe it'll be enough!" He slots the medals one, two, and three. He tilts the belt to slant toward his left, and takes a gilded disk to slide them across the medals. "Transform!" Sai! Gorilla! Zou! SaGouZou!~ SaGouZou!~ "I'll let that count as my first strike, most people don't give me the time to transform these days!"

The woman would stare at the armor now covering her foe, quite bulky looking... If she's lucky it'd have poor speed, but no assumptions yet. "Hmm, I've seen something quite like that before... But it does remind of another armor I saw not too long ago, say, are you a "Kamen Rider"?" It's a wild guess, but if that guy talking about these Riders last night was who she thought it was... Either way, magical energy flows around the woman and a portal opens, one moment she'd be across from him, the next she's on his left side. Scythe spinning toward his lower torso as she steps back a bit and stares at the suit. "I'll start off fairly simple for now, no need to get crazy right at the start right?"

Eiji begins beating his knuckles to his chest, which causes a silver aura to emanate off of him. Within several yards, everything begins to be forced into the air. This includes the dust on the floor around him. Hopefully, Hilda would be surprised by the scythe going off course. "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!" Of course, if it did hit him, he'd stand firm, only beating his chest with significantly less fervor. The scythe would have sparked against the solid part of his torso.

A car crashes into the wall and it's a pink car and the man driving it starts to swear and tries to get out, Looking a bit drunk, and then police sirens are heard go by. "Ugh...Anyone got a donut and a cab? i gotta get to work?"

Dust storm, not so different from an Earth Witch... Yes, he did say he'd be using Earth, regardless of that, his trick is enough to send the blade flying off course. Barely passing by Eiji as Hilda sighs. "Hmm, not what I was expecting at all. Very well, if you could slow down it'd make hitting so much easier." Dark purple energy begins emitting from the woman, it would quickly cover Eiji for a moment. The man would feel himself moving a bit slower than before, quickness draining away to an extent as Hilda smirks. [Moratorium] "Of course, I wouldn't make a request like that without backing it up. That'd be foolhardy don't you think?"

Eiji continues pounding around his chest, of course, less speed, but to compensate Eiji has begun to beat his chest with significantly more force. This causes the dust to float in place, also pulling the entire layer of dust on the arena into the air. "Huuuuuuwaaaaaah!" With this, it should lift Hilda herself into the air as well.

The woman would grip her scythe with only her right hand, angling it upward and suddenly teleporting high into the air. To be exact she'd reappear at the roof, quickly slamming her weapon into the top of the building and hanging off the handle. "Hmm, if you want to push me up then I can work with it..." From her left-hand magical energy rushes out, a large dark purple orb slamming downward and aiming to blast into Eiji's head. if the blow struck it'd begin attempting to rip the man's armor to bits with raw force.

"WHERE THE HELL AM I?"

Of course, with the horn atop his head, he propels himself forward, in an attempt to simply disperse the energy with one hearty blow. In other news, he leaps into the air, maintaining a standing posture. While he's floating, he slides the disk across his belt once more. SCANNING CHARGE! As he lands, all of the floating debris falls with a force many times that of gravity, hopefully taking Hilda with it. "Taaaaaake this!" As he said this, Hilda would feel an intense force dragging her closer to Eiji, and his horn would begin glowing. If she doesn't do something, this might get dangerous.

Hilda mutters a curse, well that one got blocked a bit too easily... "Fine then, I'll have to focus on defending myself." As she begins getting dragged down the scythe would stay inside the roof for a while, of course at some point building is torn up and she's sent flying downward. Or would be if she hadn't teleported once again, rushing down to the ground and moving back about 75 feet away from Eiji. "I'd really prefer not to take this in fact." Her blade digs into the ground, slowing her movements toward the man a great deal as the woman pulls her weapon back with all her might. She's spending all her effort on simply staying away from her foe as of now, naturally, this would likely leave her open to a counter attack... Of course, she's expecting that as well.

Eiji, still in the throes of his attack, winds up his arms behind him, and lunges forward. This sends both of the knuckles attached rocketing toward Hilda with insane speed. Of course, Eiji realized what he had done, and holds his hands to his mask in horror. He quickly attempts to pull the fists back, but only serves to divert the attack to the scythe instead. "Oh crap!" All he can do, he has done, now he is forced to await the results.

"Hey, Yuki, I brought pu-" A dog-girl runs into GYM, waving two cups of pudding. She stops in her tracks upon seeing... This. "...Wrong place..." She decides to open a pudding cup and have it as a snack while she watches this free show thing. Entertainment with snacks!

"Anyone got a beer?"

"I have pudding!" QP offers the strange yellow man a pudding cup.

The woman would raise her weapon up, causing both of the fists to slam into the blade of her scythe. She'd fly backward a fair bit, groaning as the blunt force crashes into her body and causes her to reel. "Gah... That hurt quite a bit I must admit, but I'm not done yet." She'd warp again, this time appearing atop the ceiling with her legs pressed against it, she'd kick off and angle her blade to fly downward straight at Eiji, a blur of motion rushing toward the boy as flies with incredible speed. "Now take this!" Hit or miss, once she slams into the ground the woman would begin singing. Her voice ringing out through the room as magical power surges around her. [Crystal Realm] With that, the magic would take on the shape of large dark purple crystals jutting out of the ground, aiming to slam into Eiji and close in on him. To be exact they'd attempt to push the young man toward Hilda if he were to begin dodging, a few sharpened spikes even coming up to form a roof above them at this point. The only clear area, and exit, being where Hilda stands. Her Scythe gleaming as she aims it toward the Rider, even still spikes on the ground rush to attack him. "Well, I clearly have to put in some real effort here at the very least... You are quite skilled."

As the crystal crashes into him, he begins looking around anxiously, finally looking forward. He was aware of what he had to do. He'd stomp to give himself cover via the dust, allowing him to do something quite stealthily. LION! TORA! CHEETAH! LaTa~ LaTa~ LaToraTah! With a burst of light behind the dust, a yellow blur bursts out from the cloud. Its speed seems to be barely ahead of the focus of the human eye. Instead of charging into her, the blur attempts to simply dodge past Hilda. Of course a very quick reaction would result in a direct confrontation. "I gotta ask... Why are you here? I mean I get the WHY, it IS a GYM after all, but why do you wanna get stronger?"

Fast, almost too fast but she's not quite willing to let him get away yet. Instead, she swings her scythe, rushing with haste to try and slam into the man's chest plate. Upon hearing his question, however, Hilda would begin thinking. Taking a moment before replying, all while still aiming to slice with her blade. "Hmm, why do I want to get stronger... Because I have to make up for things... because I've done things nobody ever should and even though there's no erasing the past, all I can do is look to the future and try to do the right thing." There's a ghost of a smile dancing across the woman's face, sorrow tinges through her words but even so, there's a sense of hope in there too. "There's someone out there who thinks I'm a good person even now, so I'll prove him right... I'll get stronger help him, and anyone else who needs help. I'll try to do good because frankly speaking it's about time I did." She'd then look at him with a raised eyebrow, curiosity clear in her voice. "And what about you? I've gotten all nostalgic and everything but I'd rather not dwell in that too long. Can't live in the past after all!"

Eiji takes his last attempt to slide beneath the scythe, attempting to get up in haste. He takes on a fighting stance that causes the claws on his arms to fold and extend outwards. "I want to help people. That's what I think strength is for.... If I help everyone I can, then I won't NEED to regret anything! That's why I fight, and it's why I wanna get stronger! Helping everyone in the world might be beyond my reach, but if I CAN reach them, I HAVE to help them!" It can't be seen, but beneath his mask, Eiji is smiling in pure bliss. "Dwelling on the past isn't such a bad thing I think, but living for the now isn't so bad, I've got all I need, so the future isn't something I need to worry about too much!" Eiji takes his time to simply circle in preparation to block another attack.

Hilda would laugh, not a malicious laugh but rather one of familiarity. This man... He sounds a bit like Alto really. "You a lot like someone else I know, always rushing off to help without even worrying about himself... It's a bit worrisome really, but I can't deny that it's a good thing about him too." Despite the fight going on, there's a smile on the woman's face at this point. "Hmm, living in the past... It's caused me some trouble before, and if I focus too much on that how will I get anything done? As for the future, isn't not worrying about still affecting it? Trying to help people, doing the right thing, all of that has an impact on the future. That's what I mean when I say I'll live for the future." She'd snap her fingers, the crystal around them starting to break down, though not being sending one last attack at Eiji's back by aiming to stab into him with a spear from the back wall. Hilda's efforts, on the other hand, call down a wide cloud of the same magical energy she'd fired off earlier in the fight, more powerful this time, however, and crashing down across a good 100-foot radius around them. Despite that, the energy simply passes over Hilda herself harmlessly. [Darkhale Metric]

"Oh crap!" Eiji gets grazed by the spear coming for him, but he bolts away quickly from the circle of energy. "You sure like not gettin' close... Magic wasn't really my strong suit. Guess if I wanna win, then I'll need to go a little harder..." Eiji begins to pout to himself, leaving him vulnerable to attack.

"Magic is my greatest skill, I am the Witch of Time after all!" There's a hint of pride in her voice, despite everything that's happened she can't help feeling accomplished. "Hear this song, and grind to a near halt!" [Upstream Waltz] The woman begins singing once more, this time however the tune is lower and the tempo far less rapid. It would conjure up a dark energy that instantly engulfs Eiji, Hilda moving in closer to the man as time itself slows for him. Unlike the prior effect which simply made his body slower, this would affect even his thoughts as the nature of time is slowed for the man. "I'll try getting close this time... Though not without having a bit going in my favor, of course, I get the sense you could hit me into the ground fairly easily if I get too careless."

Given the mercy of not being completely halted, he seems to grasp a miniscule ounce of what's occurring. In a last ditch effort to defend himself from the impending attack. He shimmers with a golden light. In his mind, light always exceeded time, why stop now? Of course, that was at a slower pace than usual. "Huwooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!" With light comes heat, and closer to him seems to be hot, almost scalding. If he's allowed to continue, his light would grow to match the sun itself.

The woman warps again, this time moving closer and in fact appearing directly behind Eiji. "I don't like whatever you have planned, so I might as well try and stop it." She swings down, aiming to slice into his right shoulder. Curve the blade up and try to slice into his left leg, moving into the other shoulder if possible. A flourish and attempt to slam her weapon right into his back, aiming to rake the scythe blade along the armor for a moment. Up again, this time coming from above and attempting to slice the back. "And now, suffer the ravages of time!" One final slash of the blade, Hilda leaping backward as she makes it, magical energy rushing along it before coming out at Eiji. The crescent-shaped magical attack flying toward the man with incredible speed as Hilda smirks, though one might also note her heavy breathing at this point, and the fact that her little bit of time magic will have worn off now... This one was a bit risky really.

He takes the first few attacks, creating sparks as they dash against his armor. Once the time magic vanishes, the light becomes impossible to see through. It's impossible to tell what Eiji does next, save for an audio cue. TAKA! KUJAKU! CONDOR! The sound of a hawk screeching pierces through GYM, and an angelic choir of voices fills the room. TA~ JA~ DOR~ The light fades to reveal a crimson red figure standing amidst a pillar of flames. The previous magical strike is nowhere to be seen. The fire concentrates itself into a panel on Eiji's arm, which dissipates to form a shield. Eiji flings both arms into the air and arcs them down to his side, this creates a peacock's tail of rainbow light. Where the eyes in the tail would be are replaced by medals. He brings his arms back, and throws them forward, mimicking a bird flapping its wings. This sends the feathers on the tail toward Hilda in a spectacular display. "He'd be pretty upset by now..."

The woman sighs as Eiji shrugs off this one as well... Well, not entirely, if they keep going long enough someone is bound to win eventually but she can't exactly say she'd like to be fighting all day either. "I'd say that I'm done here, for now, if you're fine with it I'll just call this one a draw." The time he's taken a bit to fire off an attack... Hilda waits, watching the feathers fly at her as magical energy gathers up. Then, a few inches from being struck the woman would vanish, appearing once again far closer to Eiji, this time however her Scythe is absent and she'd have a hand extended to the man in armor with a slight smile on her face. "It was a rather telling battle, to say the least, I wasn't expecting to meet someone as strong as yourself... Either way, I'd rather we don't harm ourselves too badly so I'm calling this one done!"

Eiji tilts the belt to its original position, and the transformation disengages. "Yeah... if I got too hurt Ank- a friend of mine would probably be upset... If I had to guess he'd be upset I was fighting in the first place! I have a restaurant, you should come by sometime! Business has been a bit slow lately, but I can at least cook up something that'd get us both in gear!" Eiji accepts the handshake, a goofy grin on his face. "I will admit... I got a bit worried there! Sometimes if I get pushed a little too far, well let's just say I don't like going at full power!"

A restaurant huh? She'll have to check this place out at some point, who knows how it'll be but no sense in not giving it a shot. Besides... Has she even heard a name? Or given one? The woman would let go of his hand and begin laughing. "Hah, geez I can't believe I'd forget something like that. My name's Hilda by the way, geez I completely forgot to introduce myself throughout all this." She'd then pointedly not inquire about this "Ank" person, something tells her it's about as bad an idea as it gets. His comment about not liking to use his full power though... "So that wasn't even your full power huh? Well, it sounds impressive, heh, I might not even be able to beat you if you went all out... Not alone anyway." Fighting alone isn't really her strong suit, magic that's just as good for support as it is damage... Besides, she needs a Conductor to get truly serious. Regardless, the woman begins heading for the door. "Anyway, I'll see you around... Well, I guess I wouldn't mind hearing a name first actually."

Eiji waves goodbye, his grin still plastered on his face. "It's Eiji! Hino Eiji! Kamen Rider OOO at your service!" Not alone? Maybe she has someone like Ankh! Might be a nice guy! Maybe he'd be just as fond of ice cream too.

Tension! Excitement! Sonorous roars of admiration! These are all things Mr. Satan was well accustomed to when entering... well, anywhere! However, for the nth time today he was met with little more than a door creaking as he entered the seemingly vacant GYM. "Bwahahaha! The Savior has co- umm? Oh?" The self proclaimed savior catches the butt end of what seems to be a rather personal interaction. But the world's hero has tact, he wasn't going to interrupt such a moment.
