(Jets P.O.V)

I awoke in what I could immediately tell was a busy street from the sound of horns blaring and people chatting. I slowly opened my eyes and began to feel drops of rain all over my body. There were people surrounding me, asking if I was okay. I sat up to look around and the people stepped away from me.

Woman: "Are you okay sir, you took quite a fall there."

Jets: "Me? yeah I am fine, I don't recall falling though."

I look up to see the skyscrapers reaching up towards the sky and signs hanging around in a different language from what the signs were in the city I had landed in. Still readable though. But they are all signs to places that I do not recall being in my city.

Jets: "Excuse me miss, but do you know where I am?"

The woman turned her head slightly to the side and spoke as if confused.

Woman: "Akihabara, how could you not know that?"

Jets: "Sorry miss, had no idea, thank you for the information."

I gave a short bow and then began walking through the street looking for anything I might recognise. To no avail however, all these streets seemed new, I couldn't find the skyscraper than M-Five was on, signs said that there was more city in the direction of the canyon and no one looked the same as the people I would see normally. This was an incredibly weird feeling. As if none of this is real... no... as if this was hyper real, like maybe here I am more real than I was before. I stopped and looked around myself. my glove had no keyhole on it and my key box was missing. Normally this would worry me, but here, perhaps I am not meant to have those things. life here could be amazing, where I don't have to worry about fighting and where I can just sit around all day. no more piracy, no more Sentai, no more kamen rider, no Durok and nobody to say I was their only hope. I could be Jets, the normal earthling human with nothing special about him whatsoever.

...

...

What the hell am I thinking!? I began to look around desperately and my casual walk turned into a run. I had to find my way home, there has to be some way. where the hell am I?

Suddenly bullets flew past me and a female voice came from the alley the bullets had flew from. She had long purple hair and was wearing an entire outfit made of black leather. she had a generals hat on.

???: "You really shouldn't go chasing your dreams ---. After all, you are just your average guy, it's not like you have powers or something like that. Do yourself a favour ---, you should go home and deal with reality for a while."

Every time she said my name... I couldn't hear it. I am real right? I am Jets, the greatest... solo... what was I again?

???: "What are you going to do ---?"

Jets: "I... I don't believe you! I am more than just an average guy and I will prove it!"

I swung my arm down and felt my box, it's front rotating and Gokai Violet's key was revealed, the lady stepped back in horror. as I pulled it out and threw it into the key hole in my glove.

Jets: "Gokai Change!"

As I turned the key, the world around me went black and I slowly opened my eyes to look at the roof of the organisation infirmary.

Wonder what the dream was about. I vaguely remember a massive street but nothing else really comes to mind. Aki... Aki something. I will have to remember and ask about it later.
