He was close. He was so, so close. 

 He could only taste it. The power. The wish was within his grasp. 

 He couldn't believe it took him this long to understand! Ha! The world was so dark, so empty, so cruel. His ideals were never meant to be. World peace... what was the point? 

His sister died. His parents died. All died to this pathetic game called the Desire Grand Prix. 

All because of the Goddess of Creation. 

Yes. Yes. Yes. Fall to the depths. Let the world know your pain. 

Tsumuri-san closed her eyes, grasping her hands tight. The glow was there. 

 His hand reached out. 

 Yes! Yes! YES! IT WOULD SOON BE HI- 

 "Keiwa, my baby brother, please stop!" 

 His hand paused. Shook. 

 "N-Neechan?" He whispered. 

 Tsumuri-san's eyes shot wide open. "K-Keiwa-san?" 

 He backed away. "Neechan, where... Where are you?!" 

 "Please, don't trick people for me! Neechan is okay!" 

 "W-What do you mean by that?! You died! Michinaga, that -------, he killed you!" 

 "He didn't know, Keiwa! Please, stop hurting so much! I can't take it! Seeing you hurt so mu-" 

"I'M SICK AND TIRED OF BEING WEAK AND DEFENSELESS!" He roared. "ACE ALWAYS WON! HIS MOTHER CAUSED OUR PARENTS TO DIE AND NEVER RETURN! THEY TAKE TAKE TAKE! WHY WAS MICHINAGA ALLOWED TO RETURN AS A KAMEN RIDER WHEN HE'S THE ENTIRE REASON YOU GOT INVOLVED!? WHY IS HE SUDDENLY PLAYING HERO?! HE NEVER ONCE GAVE A ---- ABOUT US KAMEN RIDERS AND NOW HE GIVES A ----?! TO THE HELL WITH THAT!" 

 Tsumuri, she couldn't.... 

 Keiwa was on his knees, gripping his head. Actual tears were piercing his eyes as he screamed every word out. 

 Just... Just how long had he been feeling this way? 

[ Ace freezes as he hears this. Win can only frown. "Tycoon... Oi, Ace, did you ever tell him the truth about your mom?" 

 "I... Didn't have time to..." 

 ".... You seriously couldn't have sat him down and explained everything with me around before this hit?"

"..." Ace's wide eyes tell him everything. 

 He hadn't given Keiwa the context. Instead he had just believed what everyone had told him about his mother... 

 No... No wonder he was... 

 Win groans under his breath. Man, for the God of Creation, he was stupid some days. ]

"IS THIS WHAT OUR PARENTS WOULD HAVE WANTED?! MOM AND DAD WOULD HAVE NEVER WANTED YOU TO GO DOWN THIS ROUTE! IF I COULD SLAP YOU I WOULD KEIWA! SERIOUSLY... P-PLEASE STOP..." 

 The crack in her voice made all his muscles freeze over. She was.... Crying... Neechan was... 

 He had sworn after his parents' death to ensure she didn't cry. He had stopped beating people up. He had actually started paying attention to his classes so his sister could be happy. She was all he had. She had... 

 To Keiwa, whose heart was utter darkness, she kept him in check. 

 He was... He had become... 

 He backed away. The realization of what he had, what he was ABOUT to do, crashed down on him. The morals he had learnt, they came rushing in. 

 When that demon, Kagerou, he thinks, asked him what he was, he had been terrified. He hadn't wanted it to come out. He had grown up hurting people without realising, if Neon or Ace found out... 

 But the restraints had been let loose the moment his sister died. Slowly fraying the day he let a bit of that dark side out, just a tiny bit out to take Girori down. 

 And all he could do was.... Cry.. Cry all the way. 

 The darkness dispels. 

 "I-I... Neechan... I'm sorry..." 

 He could almost see her shaking her head. That fond smile on her face. "It's okay, I knew you would come to your senses! Neechan is proud, Keiwa. So... Please... Stop the DGP. I'll be watching over you from above." 

 "You're... Gonna see Mom and Dad?" He asked softly. 

 "Yeah, so you gotta take care of yourselves, Otouto! P-Promise me that!" 

 Keiwa wiped the tears away from his face. He... He understood now. 

 He had... He had forgotten hadn't he? He had to revive all those who had died to the DGP. 

 As infuriating as he was sometimes, Ace was... Right. Ace could change the world. All he needed was to let the trust last. All he had to do... Was to keep fighting for those who died. To remember who they were, and never stop.

"I-I promise you, Neechan. I'll... I'll end all of this. I'll take down Daichi, Beroba, Kekera, that new Game Master... I'll ensure the DGP will be used right this time! I'll... I'll get world peace!" 

His resolve, it clicked. 

 Right there, the light resonated. 

 "K-Keiwa-san, what-" 

 His eyes widened as well. 

"Wait that's..." 

 "Neechan will cheer you on from above. Goodbye, Keiwa..." 

 [As Sakurai Sara fades off, her soul no longer with them, Takeru smiled sadly. 

 "Thanks for helping me out here, Ghost," Tsukasa said while placing a hand on his shoulder. 

"The assistance is truly appreciated. I... Would have done the same thing as he had," Kouta said. 

 "I did what anyone else would. I know the victims will rest in peace for sure." 

 Gone was the Marella Jyamato. Isuzu Daichi, dead at the hands of a space God and the Destroyer of Worlds. 

 The Garden, now in ruins. All its victims allowed to rest in eternal peace.]

"This is NOT the Kamen Rider I came to see!" Kekera scowled as he and Beroba appeared behind them. "Sakurai Keiwa, you were supposed to let her create the Buckle to kill Buffa then hand her over to Jitto!" 

 "What?!" Win finally couldn't take it, showing up in front of Tsumuri and glaring at Keiwa. 

 Ace himself just walked over. Keiwa froze, but then a pat on the back made him look up to see a gentle smile on the fox rider's face. 

 "Tycoon... Those Buckles are yours. I can tell you that." 

 "Ace... You're not..." 

 "Mad? Maybe. At you? No. At myself? Absolutely. If I hadn't, if you hadn't been involved in the DGP-" 

 "I would have lived my life without a purpose. I know what I want now," He said, turning to the two Supporters as he held the two Buckles that had been created. "Tsumuri-san, I'm sorry for lying to you. If you'll allow me to use these Buckles, just this once, I promise I'll return them. I promise." 

 "I...." She turned to Ace, as if for guidance. 

 He gave her a smile. "It's your choice, Neechan." 

 She... 

 Tsumuri couldn't help but smile a bit. She'll take a while to get readjusted to this new Keiwa-san but... 

 "Very well. I expect it to return if it is too powerful, though." 

 "Thanks," He said, and the first genuine smile broke out on his face for the first time since Ace rewrote the world. 

 No, ever since he was brought back by Kekera's mechanisms. 

 Sakurai Keiwa, Kamen Rider Tycoon, understood now his aim; 

 To fight for everyone's happiness. 

 So with this temporary BOOST.... 

 He'll save the victims for sure!! 

 I hear you loud and clear, Keiwa.
