Chapter 114 - Chapter 112

The tactical agents raised their weapons, tension thick in the air. Haruka stepped forward, his voice firm. "Stand down. We'll handle this."

Haruka's transformation began with a deliberate motion. The Faiz Phone materialized in his hand, its sleek metallic surface gleaming.

"Henshin,"

The Faiz Driver appeared around his waist and he inserted the Faiz Phone into the driver with a decisive click. A burst of energy erupted around him, digital circuits of light tracing intricate patterns across his body.

The transformation was instantaneous. Silver-green armor materialized, covering Haruka from head to toe. The helmet formed last, its compound eyes flickering to life with a sharp red glow. The crimson photon lines glow brightly, completing the Kamen Rider Faiz transformation.

"Supergirl, let's do this."

"Right,"

Haruka and Kara moved in perfect synchronization, Kamen Rider Faiz charging forward with his Faiz Shot extended while Supergirl unleashed a burst of heat vision. The Baltan creature - Calton - seemed to shimmer and distort under their combined assault.

Suddenly, the alien's form began to split. One Calton became two, then four, then eight. Each clone moved with identical precision, their metallic exoskeletons gleaming under the half-constructed neighborhood's harsh lighting.

"What the—" Haruka started, his compound eyes scanning the rapidly multiplying enemies.

Kara's eyes widened. "They're cloning themselves!"

Within moments, Calton's duplicates completely surrounded Haruka and Kara. Each clone looked identical - segmented armor, large pincers for hands, and compound eyes that reflected an cold, calculating intelligence. They moved in perfect unison, creating a living, breathing barrier that trapped the heroes in the center.

Haruka's Faiz armor tensed, his systems rapidly analyzing the unexpected tactical situation. Kara hovered slightly above ground, her muscles coiled and ready to strike.

Calton's metallic form rippled with a cold, mechanical laugh. "Do not underestimate the power of the Baltans," he declared, his voice a sharp, electronic tone that echoed across the half-constructed neighborhood.

In an instant, each of the Baltan clones extended their pincer-like hands. Razor-sharp energy beams erupted from their appendages, creating a devastating crossfire targeting Kara and Haruka. The beams crackled with an otherworldly blue-white intensity, cutting through the air with precision.

Haruka's Faiz armor absorbed the initial barrage, energy dispersing across his silver-green suit. "Supergirl, incoming!" he shouted, bracing against the onslaught.

Supergirl stood her ground, the energy beams washing over her without effect. Her eyes blazed with heat vision, targeting the Baltan clones. Crimson energy erupted from her eyes, cutting through several of the metallic creatures. Where her heat vision struck, Baltan clones disintegrated into sparking fragments.

But for every clone she destroyed, more seemed to take their place. The Baltan horde continued to multiply, their numbers seemingly endless. Beams of energy continued to slice through the air, creating a deadly lattice of destruction around Kara and Haruka.

The heroes stood back-to-back, surrounded by the relentless Baltan clones.

[Faiz Edge, Materialize]

Instantly, a sleek energy blade materialized in his hand. The Faiz Edge hummed with photon energy, its blade casting a sharp crimson glow against the metallic landscape. With lightning precision, Haruka swept the blade in a wide arc, cutting through the first wave of Baltan clones.

The Baltans' segmented bodies sparked and fractured where the Faiz Edge struck. Each clone moved with mechanical synchronization, their pincer-hands transforming into energy weapons. They attacked Haruka from multiple angles, but he moved with fluid grace, his armored form dancing between their strikes.

One Baltan lunged, its pincer crackling with blue-white energy. Haruka parried the attack, spinning and slicing through the creature's midsection. Another clone attempted to flank him, but he reversed his blade's grip and stabbed backward, impaling the attacker.

Nearby, Supergirl engaged her own group of Baltan clones. Her heat vision cut swathes through their ranks, while her superhuman strength allowed her to crush multiple attackers with single, devastating blows. Baltans flew in all directions as she fought, their metallic bodies breaking apart under her assault.

Haruka continued his relentless attack, the Faiz Edge becoming a blur of crimson energy. Each strike was precise, calculated, eliminating Baltan clones with surgical efficiency.

The Baltan clones continued their relentless assault, their metallic bodies multiplying with each passing moment. Haruka's Faiz Edge sliced through another wave, but for every clone he destroyed, two more seemed to take its place. Kara's heat vision carved burning paths through the swarm, yet the creatures kept coming.

Breathing heavily, Haruka backed up against Kara, their movements synchronized. The heroes were now completely surrounded by a sea of segmented, metallic bodies. Pincer-hands crackled with energy, ready to strike from every direction.

"We can't keep this up forever," Haruka muttered, his Faiz Edge held defensively. "If we don't come up with something, we're going to be goners."

Kara's voice was tense but determined. "Do you have any ideas?"

Haruka's helmet turned slightly, a quick negative gesture. "No," he admitted bluntly.

Calton's mechanical laugh echoed through the half-constructed neighborhood, a chilling sound that seemed to come from everywhere and nowhere at once. The sound mocked Kamen Rider and Supergirl, highlighting their increasingly desperate situation.

The Baltan clones continued to close in, their compound eyes gleaming with a cold, calculating intelligence that promised nothing but destruction.

As Calton prepared to unleash another devastating volley of energy attacks, the air around Haruka and Kara suddenly began to swirl. A powerful tornado materialized out of nowhere, its winds howling with incredible force. The Baltan clones found themselves caught in the vortex, spinning wildly and losing all semblance of formation.

In an instant, the tornado dissipated, and hundreds of Baltan clones crashed to the ground, their metallic bodies crumpling and sparking upon impact. The dust settled, revealing a familiar figure hovering above the battlefield.

Haruka and Kara looked up in simultaneous surprise.

"Superboy?!" they exclaimed in unison.

The young hero landed gracefully, a confident smile crossing his face. "You two don't look so good, so I came to help," he replied casually, as if he'd just completed a routine task.

Here's a rewrite in the style of the sample text, maintaining the core meaning while adopting a more dynamic third-person narrative approach:

Haruka couldn't help but crack a smile. "You have perfect timing,"

"Looks like we got another team up," Kara replied,

The scattered Baltan clones quickly began to regroup. Haruka and Kara watched in tense anticipation as the metallic fragments started to coalesce.

"This doesn't look good," Haruka muttered, his Faiz Edge still at the ready.

The blob of Baltan fragments grew larger, swirling and churning with an unnatural energy. At its core, the stolen radioactive material pulsed with an ominous light. Slowly, the mass began to take shape, expanding vertically and horizontally.

Kara's eyes widened. "It's reforming!"

The blob solidified, transforming into a massive version of Calton. Towering over the half-constructed neighborhood, the giant alien's compound eyes glowed with malevolent intensity. Its metallic body gleamed under the harsh city lights, dwarfing the three heroes below.

"Damn you all! You all will die here!" the giant Calton roared, its voice reverberating through the street.

Haruka, Kara, and Superboy looked up at the ominously big alien.

"Crap..." said Haruka.
