Please watch in a well-lit room a safe distance from the screen.

I'm Baku Yorozu.

I'm an agent for the Secret Defense Organization, CODE.

My mission—to eradicate evil.

At least, that's what I dream about. I'm actually a pretty normal guy.

Why are you dressed like that?

Because I'm a secret agent.

I infiltrated Minami's bad dream

and was about to defeat the Nightmare tormenting her, when...

Wake up already!

That Nightmare is Minami Yorozu!

Because Minami Yorozu is not your real family.

She's a CODE agent with a particular mission.

Why'd you have to go and tell him that?

It's more fun if they think they're family.

Zeztz. Give me the Recovery Capsem.

I may be able to use it to restore Minami Yorozu's body.

Nah, it's hopeless.

I wrote the bad dream so that she can't be restored.

No...

Say, what was that mission of yours again?

Save the cat...

It's your choice to kill the kitty cat or not, Zeztz.

No.

It can't be true...

Minami!

Minami became a Nightmare?

So that's why she's got a tail.

Minami...

Tell me what's going on.

You're not really a CODE agent...

Are you?

I'm sorry.

Four Years Earlier

Yorozu

Minami Yorozu, was it?

I'm truly sorry for your loss.

And you are...?

Excuse me.

I was your parents' superior at work.

I have something important to tell you about them.

I'll just get my brother, so—

Actually, this is something he shouldn't know.

What?

"CODE"?

The company your parents worked for was merely a front.

They were actually agents for a secret defense organization.

Their mission was to pretend to be a family,

protect Baku Yorozu, and bring him up safely.

Wait a minute.

Pretend to be a family?

You're their biological child, but unrelated to Baku Yorozu by blood.

What?

You'll find the proof in that document.

Article 1 (Validity of family register change) Article 2 (Use of former last name)

Even if you say that there is... that's...

Miss Minami.

We want you to carry on your parents' mission to protect Baku Yorozu...

To protect your big brother.

As of today, you are...

Code Number: 17.

Yes, sir.

All this time... you were a secret agent pretending to be my sister?

I'm sorry I hid it from you.

Why didn't you tell me?

CODE killed me!

Calm down, Baku.

That just happened in your dream.

It's not like they told me everything.

You look like someone who wants a good explanation.

You bet I do.

Your brother is undertaking a top-secret mission.

I didn't know you had become Zeztz or about your command center.

You knew I hated CODE, though.

I really am sorry.

Minami...

I really have to tell him.

If you do, another agent will take over his care.

You won't be family any longer.

You're still with the organization, aren't you?

Yes.

But the other day, I told Zero...

I'm sorry.

Would it be possible for me to take some personal time off work?

Why didn't you tell Baku about this?

It's true, either way, that I'm not his real sister.

I'd prepared myself...

that this day would come eventually.

Is that who you were protecting?

Someone with no connection to you at all?

I thought I'd seen it somewhere.

The dream Minami had about looking for a cat...

It happened two years ago.

Jaco!

Thank you for finding her.

Hey, no problem.

Baku?

Are you okay? Baku!

College Student Struck by Meteorite Baku Yorozu, Hit by Meteorite (Age 21)

She's been watching over you all this time.

Warning! Warning!

An intruder?

It's Mr. Odaka.

Odaka.

I thought you'd come here.

I have to talk to you.

Where's Seventeen?

She's not here right now.

Why did you just let her go? She's valuable as an informant.

He can't just hold her here. That's his sister!

Except she's not.

She's an agent who pretended to be your sister to share info with CODE.

Are you saying all the time they spent as family was a lie?

That's the kind of organization CODE is.

Zeztz, you should know that by now.

I'm sorry. Please leave me alone.

Odaka.

C'mon.

What's the point of your revenge against CODE?

They're fighting for world peace, aren't they?

Is your revenge the right thing to do?

You know nothing.

What happened to your sense of justice?

I need to stop them...

the Nightmares that run rampant in people's dreams.

The whole reason I believed Nightmares were real was because of your desire for justice.

Weren't the Nightmares your enemy?

Turns out there were bigger threats out there.

CODE. Sieg.

In other words, humans.

Is that what you mean?

Then punish them under the law!

Isn't that what the police are for?

I'm not an officer of the law anymore.

Good night, Zeztz.

Good night.

Are you okay?

It was all true.

Minami was just with me as part of a CODE mission.

She was pretending to be my sister.

It was all to protect me, someone with no connection at all to her.

Dreams are a place where the Dreamer’s mind is revealed, right?

You've seen the wishes of all kinds of people.

Yeah.

Minami was dreaming, too...

Of a world where she could always be part of a family with you.

He's the invincible secret agent.

He's my silly, unemployed brother.

She didn't become an agent to fight for world peace.

She just wanted to protect her only brother in the whole world.

That's what I think, anyway.

Minami...

Jaco!

Jaco, where are you?

Meooow!

You ain't gonna find that cat no matter how hard you try, y'know?

Because the cat is you, see?

Now... let's give you a crazy bad dream.

Minami.

Figure out your answer yet?

Gonna let the Nightmare live while you die?

Or destroy the Nightmare and end this?

My answer hasn't changed.

Save the cat.

That is my mission.

Catastrom!

Let'z... Awaken! Let'z... Awaken!

Transform.

CATASTROM!

Yeah, got it.

You're not related, after all.

Minami's dream is...?

Zeztz.

This is what lies in your subconscious.

It's what you really want.

You want bad dreams too, don't you?

No.

It was always that way.

A lost cat? That's sad.

I've seen this cat before.

I'm gonna start looking!

I knew you'd say that.

She was always by my side.

Jaco?

Jaco?

She always protected me.

You're still alive after all those close calls.

Hey, wake up already!

Save helping people for your dreams.

Big bro!

That's enough to be happy about, right?

You're staying put!

Baku!

Hey, are you okay?

Get a grip already, dummy.

I'm not scared.

Not when it comes to protecting my family.

I don't care if you're a CODE agent.

You are part of my...

Baku.

My family!

Orderm...

Let'z Awaken. Let'z Awaken.

Anatomize. Rider.

Zeztz. Zeztz. Zeztz.

Orderm.

What's this now?

I have my orders... Save the cat.

Orderm.

Minami.

Baku...

He separated them?

I'm not here to make bad dreams come true.

I'll protect your dream, Minami.

Orderm.

Orderm Ender.

Zeztz... Zeztz... Zeztz.

Oh, Zeztz.

You sold your soul to a Nightmare.

You don't get to play the good boy.

Thank goodness.

I think you could make one come true...

Nightmare girl.

Let's make a real bad dream happen.

Good morning, Minami.

Good morning.

Hey, so...

I'm done with CODE now.

I'll settle things with that organization someday.

For Seven... and for Seventeen.

Thanks, big bro.

Let's eat.

Let's eat!

I hope you have good dreams from now on.

Fall into a bad dream.

I'll see you in my dream.

This is a work of fiction

Next time on Kamen Rider Zeztz:

CODE's going to have you eliminated.

Seven VS Zero

Zeztz?

What are the Nightmares?

The truth lurks closer

What... am I?

Dad?

A worthless pawn will be disposed of.

Afflict

Zero!
