"Help me!" Amane's voice is filled with terror as she desperately clings to anything within reach, battling against the relentless winds.
"Hang on!" You call out, your words drowned out by the roaring tornado. As Amane's grip slips, she is flung into the air, into the mercy of the typhoon. As the raging winds whip around you, threatening to take you with them at any second, you decide this is as good a time as any to call your armor. Your arm rises at an angle, another bends to your side.
"Rider!" You roar, flooding your body with Aether, pushing a balance of power throughout your very being. As your energy peaks, a shimmer of light distorts your waist, swiftly forming into a belt. Raising one arm up, you move it counter-clockwise, your arms then switch and your hold that pose. The air around you crackles with a radiant energy that follows your movements. While it can't be heard nor felt amidst this powerful tornado, your gyro is spinning furiously, gathering the Aether needed for the next step.
"Change!" A blinding light engulfs you as the nanomachines connected to you and the belt undergo a remarkable transformation, morphing into your formidable Rider armor. A sudden surge of power fills your body, but you have no time to think on that. Amane continues to be pulled higher and higher, her chances of survival diminishing with each passing second. But you will not allow her to die, not like this, certainly not this soon after reuniting.
"Toh!" You jump into the air.
"Whoa his mind is blitzed! What's he doing?" Tyri's voice fades into the background as you ascend, the tumultuous winds drowning out any further words from her or Seesan.
Caught within the vortex, your body is thrashed about, but you remain resolute, refusing to let fear hold you. Saving Amane is your priority now. In the air with you are dozens of trees, uprooted from the ground, along with various ruined structures from the village. These people would likely never understand the enemy that's forced this on them, but you vow to avenge them. After a few more moments, you spot her, Amane is currently being hurled around, she's still desperately trying to grab onto anything nearby to.
"I'm coming!" You shout with all your might, it's more likely that the wind has completely overpowered your voice though. Using your jets you aim straight towards her, only to find yourself being whipped around another way. Clicking your tongue in frustration you try again. This time you use timed bursts in short sequence to better aim yourself. Just as the tempest threatens to throw you off course, you make swift adjustments, using your jets to steer yourself toward Amane's helpless form.
