Plot[]
Doctors tend to Eri who has begun to wake up. Yui tells Shinji, but is unable to reach Ren, who is still recovering from his battle with Odin. Meanwhile, The police continue to hold Takeshi while an ensemble of media reporters amass outside. A great amount of care is taken by the police to ensure that Takeshi is nowhere near his Ouja Deck. Shinji goes to an unwell Shuichi to find Ren but is unsuccessful. He does, however, learn about Takeshi being transferred at 3 p.m. He returns to the Cafe and plans with Yui to intercept a reckless Ren, who he believes will let Takeshi roam free and attack him. Just as predicted, Ren comes to the prison and waits outside, but he is spotted by a waiting Yui. As she pursues him, she knocks someone who then pushes her into the path of an oncoming car. She is quickly pulled out of the way of the swerving car by Shinji. The man who pushed her quickly leaves the scene. The media swarms the police cars as the Police prepare to transfer Takeshi. The police have strapped him to a chair securely. Ren quickly follows behind the vans. The man who pushed Yui and she, along with Shinji themselves also follows them. In the van, Takeshi pretends to die to alert the police officer, and then raises his head with the Metalgelas Advent Card in his mouth. Ripping newspaper off the window, he summons Metalgelas who eats the drivers of the van and hence sends the vehicle out of control. This causes a large number of cars to crash into each other. Takeshi brings the Van back under control and overtakes the police escort holding the man with his Ouja Deck. He punches the man, takes back his deck and drives off. Ren, Yui and Shinji as well as Megumi and Reiko continue in the pursuit. Another accident, however, leaves Reiko and Megumi behind. Busting a tire, Takeshi abandons the van in a shipping yard. Shinji and Yui attempt to stop a reckless Ren, who continues to pursue Takeshi. Ren eventually stops and leaves the yard. The police unsuccessfully attempts to capture Takeshi who then enters Mirror World to fight Ryuki. One of the Tiger Deck holders appears at the yard as well. Ryuki activates Survive against a ruthless Ouja who then activates Metalgelas's Final Vent. Ryuki uses Dragranzer to knock Ouja off his feet, prompting the latter to summon Genocider. A random Advent Card is activated from somewhere in the shipping yard which freezes Genocider in its spot. Suddenly, Destwilder appears following a Final Vent and drags Ouja towards Kamen Rider Tiger. Ouja is able to save himself but is badly injured afterwards. Tiger quickly leaves and Ryuki leaves Mirror World, bringing a fading Takeshi along with him. Takeshi is once again taken into custody. At the hospital, Ren goes to see Eri and asks her if he has changed in any way. She tells him that his expression looks a bit softer then before. Yui and Shinji wait at the shipping yard. Shinji senses a monster and realizes that Yui is being taken by it. Shinji enters Mirror World.
