Finding the place hadn't been easy. Guzma had been reluctant to tell Sena or Adora anything about it, and they couldn't go to Lusamine to ask, what with Overwatch keeping tabs on her. But Kukui, on the other hand, had been surprisingly forthcoming, although all he'd given them was a vague hint about a hidden door somewhere in the new Stadium. 

That had been enough. Searching around the base had netted them a secret door at the seemingly empty end of a hallway, and taking it leads to an elevator down into the depths of the stadium. And that led them to another door...one completely locked up with no visible keypad or lock. The only thing there is an odd camera-like device, and a speaker...the light above it a bright red. They're stumped.

"How're we supposed to get in? Did Lusamine give you some kinda secret key or something?"

"Eh?! W-W-Why would she give me anything like th-"

As if responding to his voice, the light suddenly flashes green, and a neutral female voice sounds through the speaker.

"Ultra Rider Zero-One, confirmed."

"...Eh?"

The door unlocks and allows Sena to pull it open, revealing a room very similar to the secret lab that Lusamine had shown Sena some time prior, equipped with multiple buckles and other equipment for additional Ultra Riders. Before Sena and Adora can step inside to get a better look, however, a hologram boots up in front of them. It's a young female with bob-cut hair, dressed in a white and green suit dress over black. She speaks in the same neutral voice from before, making it evident that she's related to whatever computer system just recognized Sena as the first Ultra Rider.

"Greetings, Ultra Rider Zero-One. I have been awaiting your-"

SLAM.

"...Sena, why'd you shut the door?"

"...No, I was just surprised..."

"Oh, um...it's this thing you wear on your belt. You use it to materialize the armor we'd use for Ultra Hole travelling."

And Sena picks out a belt to show Wes what he means.

Well, Yuume is looking herself over...

"I think...it worked~" She melts into the shadows, and reappears again, still in the suit. "It worked perfectly..! I can still access my shadow, while wearing the suit! Incredible!"

It's super cool, ok,

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

"Well, that was what we were hoping for..."

Aha ha.

"Looks like there's no problems, then."

[shadowslipping]

"Aaah, so it seems~" With that, the transformation scatters, soon followed by her shadow disappearing. "It's nice to know I won't be throwing anything off. Have you had any luck finding others?"

[withoutcontrolofmyself]

"I see... and how do you activate it?"

Show him or let him practice, please. Wes hates being unprepared.
