Plot[]
Arriving in the World of Kuuga, Tsukasa takes the disguise of a policeman and watches Kuuga destroy a pair of Gurongi, La·Doldo·Gu and Me·Garido·Gi, before reverting to his human form, Yusuke Onodera. Tsukasa later destroys Go·Babel·Da as Decade, but is mistaken for a Gurongi by Yusuke and Ai. When Yusuke and Ai arrive at the Hikari Studio to discuss this strange Gurongi, Tsukasa offers Ai his help in solving the mystery behind the Gurongi's female targets and the location of their lair. On the foot of Mount Hitoki, the Gurongi's Lair, Tsukasa reveals he used Ai as bait to lure out the remaining Gurongi, revealing their plan to revive their leader before ruining their game. While attempting to destroy the Gurongi, Decade is attacked by Kuuga, who reveals he knows about Decade's mission and will stop him at all costs. Natsumi pleads for them to stop, recalling her dream in which Decade and Kuuga seemingly destroy each other. A dimensional rift occurs, and their fight is interrupted by the appearance of Kamen Riders KickHopper and PunchHopper.
