Ronin Warriors: Lightspeed Galaxy
Chapter 1: Discovery of the Problem
Somewhere in Japan...
A team of multicolored warriors fell to the ground after being slashed by a team of identical warriors, sparks flying everywhere.
"We can't keep this up for long Ryouma!" Hayate shouted. He was in a green suit.
"We have to! We must destroy these impostors." Ryouma shouted. He was in red.
"Let's try the Ginga Juukeki Dan!" Hikaru suggested. He was wearing yellow.
(Ginga Juukeki Dan theme kicks up)
The five spandex suited warriors summoned strange pole like weapons, which they braced on their shoulders and knelt down.
"Ginga Juukeki Dan!" Ryouma shouted.
Energy bolts flew from the weapons, slamming into their opponents, causing a great explosion.
"We did it!" Saya shouted. She was wearing pink.
When the smoke cleared, the strange identical opponents were still standing!
"What the? It didn't even phase them!" Gouki shouted surprised. He was in blue.
"Let's try the Ginga no Hikari." Ryouma said.
"Roar! Ginga no Hikari!" the five shouted, touching the ground in sync and then reaching to the sky. In seconds a bracelet appeared on their left wrist, a special belt buckle appeared, special wrist and leg bands appeared, their swords powered up into stronger forms, and a claw appeared in their left arm.
(Gingaman theme song kicks up)
"ChouSouKou Gingaman!" Ryouma shouted.
The claws extended and the five charged at their opponents.
"Chou GinGaiKen!" Ryouma shouted.
The five turned to bolts of light and slammed through their opponents. But it did not work!
"What is going on here? Nothing we do seems to phase them!" Hayate said.
(Shin Juukeki Bo theme kicks up)
The five warriors resummoned their cannons, which appeared to be powered up by the Ginga Light as well.
"Shin Juukeki Bo!" Ryouma shouted.
The energy bolts slammed into their opponents, but again it had no effect!
"Why isn't it working?" Ryouma wondered.
"It's because you're a fool! Our powers are exactly like yours!" The other warrior in red said.
"Now let's show you guys how we do things!" The warrior in green shouted.
"Lights of Orion, activate!" the other five shouted.
They summoned the same attachments that the other team had.
"Power Rangers! Powered up Mode!" Their leader said.
The five charged at the other five, but before they could do the same, energy bolts struck the other team, sending sparks flying and caused them to fall to the ground! A black suited warrior whose helmet had the styling of a bull landed, and fired his gun at the Power Rangers again. As the Red Ranger stood up, he straightened the pistol grip of his gun and drew his sword, and charged at the hapless red warrior. When he got close, he kicked off his chest and came spinning around, whacking him in the head as he shouted, "Kuro no Ichigeki!"
"Hyuuga! You made it!" Ryouma shouted.
"Yes brother. Now let's defeat these fools!" Hyuuga said.
The five took stances and went through kata motions.
"Ginga Red! Ryouma!"
"Ginga Green! Hayate!"
"Ginga Blue! Gouki!"
"Ginga Yellow! Hikaru!"
"Ginga Pink! Saya!"
"Kurokishi! Hyuuga!"
"The legendary sword that pierces the Galaxy! Seijuu Sentai!" Ryouma shouted.
"Gingaman!" The others said.
The five, rejuvenated charged at their opponents with new energy. Ryouma, roaring like a lion, began to beat up the Red Ranger, striking blow after blow. He then took a stance with his sword and flames began to erupt around him as his sword glowed with power.
"Honoo Issen!" He shouted, slashing at the Red Ranger, knocking him away.
Roaring like a dragon, Hayate flew through the air with the greatest of ease, easily beating down the Green Ranger. Nearby, Gouki beat his chest like a gorilla and lifted the poor Blue Ranger into the air and tossed him for a loop. Hikaru began howling like a wolf as he attacked the Yellow Ranger with swift movements. His sword began to glow as well.
"Ikazuchi Issou!" He shouted, causing lightning to strike the Yellow Ranger down and knock her to the ground.
The Pink Ranger and Ginga Pink were also going at it, and Saya had turned it into a cat fight-literally clawing and scratching at the Pink Ranger. She pulled out her Jizaiken Kiba, and converted it into Kiba Arrow mode, and began taking shots at each of their attackers. The other four members of Gingaman also pulled out their Kiba and placed them together in a star position.
"Kiba no Gekirin!" Ryouma shouted.
Energy slammed into the Rangers, knocking them down.
"That's enough! Galactabeasts arise!" the Red Ranger shouted.
A group of five large beasts arrived on the scene. The five Rangers leapt onto their heads.
"Lion Galactabeast!" The Red Ranger shouted.
"Condor Galactabeast!" Green Ranger shouted.
"Gorilla Galactabeast!" Blue Ranger shouted.
"Wolf Galactabeast!" Yellow Ranger shouted.
"Wildcat Galactabeast!" Pink Ranger shouted.
"We need the Seijuu!" Hayate said.
"Right." Ryouma said.
In a short amount of time five identical animals arrived on the scene. The five Gingaman leapt onto their heads.
"Giga Lion!" Ryouma shouted.
"Gingarukon!" Hayate said from the head of his flying dragon.
"Gin-Gorilla!" Gouki said on top of his Gorilla.
"GingaBerikku!" Hikaru said on his wolf.
"Gingat!" Saya said from her Wildcat.
The lion and dragon roared, the gorilla bulked up, the wolf howled, and the hair on the wildcat stood on end as the heroes acknowledged their animal allies.
"We've gotta stop them! Transdaggers!" The Red Ranger shouted. Daggers like the ones the Gingaman had appeared in their hands. "Galactazord Transform!"
In a matter of seconds the five Galactabeasts became metallic versions of themselves.
"Dai Tensei! Ginseijuu!" Ryouma shouted.
The five members of Gingaman did the same and entered cockpits in their machines, and placed their Kiba in a rotating structure in the center.
"Seijuu Gattai!" Ryouma shouted.
The five large metal beasts began roaring and running. The lion's head folded back, and the back legs folded into the body while the front legs folded up in back. The Gorilla's chest moved down and the arms folded into the body, and the shoulder pads locked to the side. The dragon's arms folded down and the legs became straight and locked out in front. The mouth of the Lion lowered and a face appeared, along with horns. The Wildcat and Wolf flew down from above, and changed into arms while the dragon and gorilla locked together, and then the arms locked onto the Lion as it locked on top of the dragon and gorilla. The machine roared and a sword appeared in its left hand.
Meanwhile, the Power Rangers had summoned their Galaxy Megazord in a similar fashion.
"ChouSouKou Gingaioh!" Ryouma shouted, causing a helmet and chest plate to appear on Gingaioh and the sword to power up as well, making the machine look like the Statue of Liberty.
"Galaxy Megazord, Powered Up Mode!" the Red Ranger shouted, causing the same to happen to their machine.
The two began going at it with their swords, but Gingaman seemed to have the upper hand.
" Dai Juusou Giri!" Gingaman shouted.
Gingaioh slashed at the Galaxy Megazord, causing rocks to break around it, damaging the large machine.
"This just isn't our day Leo!" Damon shouted. He was in Green.
"Yeah. We've got to take these guys down!" Leo shouted.
"Leave it to me bro." Mike said.
Out of nowhere, a large bull like robot appeared, spinning around!
"Defender Torozord Lightning Slash!" Mike shouted, slamming into Gingaioh and damaging it badly!
"What the? Where did he come from?" Hikaru said.
Watching from the ground Hyuuga saw his friends in trouble.
"They need my help. Let's go! Gou Taurus!" he shouted. A large robotic bull appeared on the scene. It fired a blast from its mouth and enlarged Hyuuga into a large red robot.
"Kiju Gashin!" Hyuuga shouted.
Gou Taurus stood up on its back legs, and its front legs pointed out towards the back. It turned to form a giant body armor. Hyuuga leapt into the air and the chest opened and he landed inside before it closed up around him. The head of the bull moved upwards and revealed a face.
"Gasshin Juushi Bull Taurus!" Hyuuga shouted.
He pulled out a gigantic axe, slashed a circle and then slashed downward, putting Mike out of commission.
"Thank you brother! Now let's take these impostors out. Ginga Bitus!" Ryouma shouted.
(Kou Seijuu theme kicks up)
A large shark like machine landed nearby and became a large tower structure. Two lights went on one after another and a team of red land vehicles roared to life-literally and shot out of their hangars. A blue light went on and a team of jets flew off into the air and took formation. The land vehicles were enveloped in the shape of a rhino and began a complex formation into a large red robot, which flashed between itself and a rhino several times. Likewise, the jets were enveloped in the shape of a phoenix and the upper and lower bodies formed separately before pulling itself together. It flashed between robot and Phoenix as it charged at the Galaxy Megazord with a flying kick, roaring as it did so. Ginga Rhinos roared as well and punched the machine a few times, using the wheels on its feet as giant roller blades. Ginga Bitus fired off the Bitus cannon attack, damaging the large machine even more.
"We can't take much more of this!" Maya, the Yellow Ranger said.
"Okay Alpha, bring them in!" Leo shouted.
"Right Leo!" Alpha said.
From out of the sky the Astro Megaship flew in towing behind it a long train.
"What in the name of the Ginga Forest is that?" Gouki wondered.
"I'm not sure. We best be ready." Ryouma said.
The large train was detached and after assuming an interesting formation, it joined into a giant robot!
"All right you animal wackos, meet the Supertrain Megazord!" Leo shouted.
"Ginga Rhinos, Ginga Phoenix, attack!" Ryouma shouted.
Ginga Rhinos flashed again, and pulled out its large gun and fired its Gigantic Buster attack, which failed to do much damage to the large machine. Ginga Phoenix followed it up with the Gigantic Boomerang, but that also did not work well. The two machines grabbed each other and used a tornado attack, but they were knocked away by the larger machine. Panels opened on the Supertrain Megazord and a volley of fire shot from it, crippling Gingaioh and causing it to fall to the ground. Gingaman flew out of the large machine. They turned to fire on Hyuuga, but he was gone!
"Where'd that other guy go?" Damon asked.
"We can't worry about him now. Let's take care of these guys." Leo said.
The five Rangers exited their Megazord. The Astro Megaship landed and deployed a red Motorcycle. Leo hopped on it and with the command of "Red Capsular Cycle!" transformed it. He flew at the weakened Gingaman team.
"Fireball Mode!" Leo shouted, closing himself within the machine and flame erupted around the cycle, and it crashed through Gingaman, causing them to power down. Leo signaled, and Starship Trooper lookalikes emerged from the Megaship and grabbed the fallen warriors and dragged them aboard the ship.
"Okay, let's find that other guy." Leo said.
Each of the Rangers produced a strange device and began combing the area for Hyuuga. But due to his separation from his Earth Power of Fire, they could not detect him. He headed for the stables at their location and hopped on his brother's horse and galloped off.
"There he goes!" Kai shouted.
"I'll get him! Red Armored Ran" Leo began to say before he was cut off.
"No Leo. Let him go." Shuki said over the radio.
"But why?" Leo asked, disappointed.
"Because he'll return with the Ronins and Warlords, which is why I ordered you to attack Gingaman in the first place. Now get back to the base!"
"As you wish Master Shuki." Leo said.
The five warriors boarded their ship and reattached the train, and flew back to Shuki's base.
(Shadow of a Doubt kicks up)
"Why did you hold us back Master? We could have easily destroyed those Ginga fools." Carter, the Red Lightspeed Ranger said.
The eleven warriors were still in their suits, with the exception of Mike who had transformed back. They were not wearing their helmets.
"Because at the time the Lost Galaxy Rangers were in a better position to destroy them. In this particular assault you were the surprise." Shuki explained from his throne.
"When are you going to give us a chance Master?" Chad, the Blue Lightspeed Ranger asked.
"When that foolish successor to Kurokishi Hyuuga returns with the Ronins and their allies, you can have all the fun you want." Shuki said.
"All right! I can't wait to show those 'five fantastic battle armored samurai' a thing or two!" Joel, the Green Lightspeed Ranger said.
"I'm fine with any method, as long as it doesn't involve me being the decoy." Damon said.
Carter and Leo looked at each other evilly.
"Enough! Leave me. I have other business to attend to." Shuki said.
"What did you say?" Carter asked.
"We can't hear you over the cello player!" Kelsey, the Yellow Lightspeed Ranger said.
"I said that you can go!" Shuki shouted.
"What?" The assembled Rangers asked.
"I said you are dismissed!" Shuki shouted.
"What?" The Rangers asked.
Carter quickly pulled out his Rescue Blaster and shot the musician off screen. The music stopped.
"That's better. You can leave now." Shuki said.
The eleven warriors left the chamber. A large figure moved into the room from the shadows.
"So Shuki, this is your latest scheme. It had better work, or you will not be alive much longer."
"I assure you, Great One, that this plan is foolproof. We will lure those foolish Ronins to the US once more, whereupon we will assault them with all our remaining forces, beating them into submission!" Shuki said proudly.
"This would not require my warriors, would it?" the being asked angrily.
"Oh no. My minions will suffice." Shuki said.
"You'd better hope that they do." the being said.
Meanwhile, back in Japan...
A series of beams of colored light beamed down outside of Toyama. Carter and a team of Batlings emerged.
"All right, Batlings, it's time to earn some Brownie Points for Shuki. I need you to comb the area and find Kurokishi before that fool Leo gets suspicious." Carter said.
The Batlings saluted him and pulled out giant combs and began scraping them over the pavement.
"No no! I didn't mean it literally. I want you to go seek him out and find out where he's hiding." Carter explained.
One of the Batlings covered what appeared to be its eyes while the others ran to hide.
"No no no! I meant...Oh never mind. Do whatever you want, see if I care." Carter said before teleporting away.
The Batlings went off in search of Hyuuga. The idiots searched high and low, low and high until one of them spotted a strange figure dressed like an Incan and motioned for the others to follow.
"Great. They've found me. I won't last long against them. But there's too many people around so I can't transform."
Hyuuga drew his sword and began slashing at the strange things, damaging several of them. But they soon recovered and began pounding on him. Fortunately the commotion scared everyone away.
"All right, prepare to be destroyed!" Hyuuga shouted, raising his sword to the sky. "Kishi Tensei!" he shouted.
In moments he transformed into Kurokishi. He then placed his hand on his chest.
"Still...too weak. Must try and stop them fast." he said to himself.
He quickly converted his weapon into a shotgun and fired at the Batlings, but soon more Batlings arrived! Carter reappeared.
"Yes! They found him! Shuki will have to let us fight now!"
Other beams landed, revealing the other Lightspeed Rangers.
"Let's take him out. Rescue Bird Master Mode!" Carter commanded.
The strange bird shaped weapon flew in and they aimed it at Hyuuga. Hyuuga spotted them and took a shot at them, knocking it out of their hands! But the Batlings took advantage of this and began to beat him down as he slowly got weaker and weaker. The Lightspeed Rangers recovered their weapon and let Hyuuga have it, knocking him out of morph and sending him falling to the ground.
"That's it Batlings! Get him!" Carter shouted.
As the black warriors got closer, energy arrows slammed into the beings, knocking them away! The Rangers looked to the top of a nearby building and found a strange cloaked warrior!
Holding his hands in a Qui Gong position, he let energy arrows fly at the Rangers, forcing them to retreat. He then leapt off the building and landed at Hyuuga's side. Reaching to his waist, he drew a katana.
(Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu kicks up)
Charging at the Batlings, he leapt into the air and came crashing down on one with his sword. Another swung, but he sidestepped and whacked him in the back of the neck, taking him down. He then uppercutted with his sword against another one, before leaping into the air again.
"Ryu Kan Sen, Tsumuji!" the warrior shouted, crashing into another with a spinning attack. He took down another by drawing his sword at warp speed and then whacking him with the sheath.
"Dou Ryu Sen!" he shouted, cracking the ground with his sword causing another to go flying.
"And now to finish you off." he said, sheathing his sword. He motioned for them to come get him. The Batlings obliged and charged him. In a blur, he led with his left, drawing his sword at warp speed, creating a vacuum that drew in his opponents. He then performed a 360 degree turn, planting his foot into the pavement, cracking it on impact, before uppercutting all of them with his sword as he finished his rotation, ending with his head down and his sword extended into the air. The Batlings exploded around him.
(Who are You Protecting kicks up)
The warrior removed his hood revealing himself to be Navcase.
"Are you all right?" He asked Hyuuga.
"Been better."
"Come on, let's get you out of here." Navcase said.
"Not so fast!" Leo shouted.
The Lost Galaxy Rangers appeared on the scene with their Quasar Launchers. They assumed the position and fired, but Navcase grabbed Hyuuga and leapt out of the way, crashing to the ground.
"Looks like I'm going to have to use it after all." Navcase said.
He pulled the large collapsed weapon from his back.
"Armor of Ryuujin!" He shouted.
(Dance of Curse kicks up)
The sword vanished and the armor appeared on his body. The Rangers fired again, but he parried the blast back at them!
"Now let's get out of here!" he shouted.
Picking up Hyuuga, he spread his armor's wings and leapt into the air. As he flew off he strafed the Rangers with a few emerald blasts before enlarging himself and switching to dragon mode.
"Dang! He got away!" Damon said.
"Don't worry. We'll get Hyuuga, and that nut too!" Leo said.
"I'll follow him in my Zord. Condor Galactazord!" Damon shouted.
A large green birdlike machine flew in and he boarded it.
"Okay, You're gonna need some air support. Stratoforce Megazord!" Leo shouted.
Zenith transformed and deployed the Stratoforce team, which quickly assembled into a large blue Megazord.
"Great. Company. I've got to get this guy to safety. But first..." Navcase said.
With a mere thought he turned the large flying mechanical beast around to face them.
"Time to to kick it into high gear." Navcase said.
The machine switched to overdrive mode and charged at them at warp speed.
"So, this guy wants to play chicken, eh? I'll show him." Damon said.
Damon began charging at Navcase and Ryuujin. The two behemoths got closer and closer. Sweat trickled from Navcase's forehead. He had to time this just right...
"You're going down pal!" Damon shouted.
"THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK!" Navcase shouted.
He quickly changed back to normal dragon mode and hit the brakes, causing Damon to go right by him.
"NOW, TO TAKE YOU DOWN!" Navcase screamed.
He took the machine up towards the sun. Hanging in the sky in front of it, it was enveloped in silhouette. He switched to soldier mode and unsheathed his sword. He fell through the sky, slashing the wings of the Condor and sending it falling to earth. But before he could react, the Stratoforce Megazord launched its boomerang, damaging the wing of the giant.
"AAAAAH! TAKE THIS!" Navcase screamed.
He fired emerald blast after emerald blast at Stratoforce, but they flew harmlessly by the large machine.
"I don't know who you are, but if we don't do something now, we'll both die!" Hyuuga said weakly.
"Yes, you're right...calm yourself Navcase. You cannot let the armor control you. You must think of a way to save us both."
The large body fell through the sky at high speed. Navcase racked his brain for a solution to the problem. With the wing damaged, the dragon configuration would not be much of a help. But perhaps if he reduced the armor's size they would fall slower...
Navcase with a single thought shrunk the large machine down to power armor size, but with the damaged wing they still could not fly. The tiny form fell faster and faster.
"We need to slow our decent or we'll both die!" Hyuuga shouted.
"Maybe I can use my cape to try and slow us down!" Navcase shouted.
Navcase tried to retract the wings so that the cape would return, but the wing mechanism was damaged!
"This just keeps getting worse and worse." Navcase said.
"We don't have much longer before we hit!" Hyuuga said.
"Wait, I think we might be saved!" Navcase exclaimed.
"And why is that?" Hyuuga asked.
"Because we just happen to be directly over a pool." Navcase said.
"Good, that's good! Try and turn over so your back hits first, so you don't crush me when we land."
Navcase managed to pull a 180 degree spin, causing him to fall back first.
Down below...
Apparently the two were about to fall directly over a wave pool at a water park somewhere in Japan. That day musicians Ami Suzuki and Hikaru Utada just happened to be performing there later in the day, and the two of them were relaxing in the sun before their performances. The two happened to look up to see the two falling.
"This might help me out somewhat. Kishi Tensei!"
Hyuuga managed to become Kurokishi just before the two hit the water with a gigantic splash, soaking everyone in the area including the two performers. Navcase and Hyuuga emerged from the water in their untransformed states, and ran as fast as they could out of the park.
Hyuuga turned to see if Navcase was following him, but he was missing!
"Now where did that guy go." Hyuuga wondered.
Elsewhere, Navcase examined his arm once again. Indeed, as he had expected, his arm had become covered with more scales. They almost completely enveloped his arm.
"This is not good. I must not allow the Ronins and Warlords to see this." Navcase said. "Before long, I will not be able to go into battle without Ryuujin."
Meanwhile, Hyuuga, soaking wet, was still in search of the Ronins. He knew he had to find them soon. He heard the roar of engines and looked up to find a green hover vehicle.
"Oh great. They've found me."
"Guys, this is Joel. I've found our little runaway. Lock onto my position and we'll take him in.
"Okay, we're on our way." Carter said.
Outside the city, the Megaship opened it's doors to deploy the Rescue Rover, and the four drove off to assist Joel.
"Rangers! Rangers!" Alpha shouted.
"What is it Alpha?" Leo asked.
"Ai yi yi! Carter and the other Lightspeed Rangers have taken off to capture Kurokishi!"
"C'mon, we've got to stop them." Leo said.
"But why? Isn't that what we want?" Damon asked.
"But that's not what Shuki wants. The only way we're going to be able to stop the Ronins is if we team up. Those cocky little Lightspeed Rescue guys are going to mess this up." Kai said.
"Mike, you stay here and keep those Lightspeed guys from getting their Zords."
"You got it little brother."
"Okay guys, let's do it! Go! Galactic!"
The five morphed and ran to the hangar bay.
The five of them leapt on their Jet Jammers and took off for the city.
Meanwhile Joel had demorphed and had cornered Hyuuga with some Batlings, who overpowered him quickly.
"Ha ha. You can't stop us." Joel said.
"Good work Joel. Let's see how tough this guy is without his armor." Carter said.
Carter and the other went to fighting stances and began beating up on poor Hyuuga. This happened to attract the attention of a nearby news crew who began filming.
"We interrupt this program to bring you this special news bulletin."
"Aw man!" Kento shouted.
"A strange individual is in the process of being beaten up by various strangely dressed individuals in coats."
The news anchor went to live footage of the attack.
"Who's that guy?" Rowen wondered.
"And for that matter, who are those guys?" Sage wondered.
Anubis and the Warlords arrived in the room.
"Hmm, this is very interesting. Why does that individual's clothing look familiar..." Anubis wondered.
Suddenly the Power Rangers Lost Galaxy flew onto the scene!
"It appears that more strangely dressed individuals have arrived on the scene." the reporter said.
"Carter, what do you think you're doing?" Leo shouted. "We were supposed to leave him alive!"
Carter and his team backed off from an extremely badly bruised Hyuuga, who fell to his knees.
"You're not my boss." Carter said.
"True, but Shuki is, and he said not to harm him in any way so that he'd bring the Ronins to us!" Leo said.
Meanwhile, back at the mansion...
"Of course! Gingaman! He must be one of them! We must go to his aid immediately." Anubis said.
"We'll take Mia's jeep." Ryo said.
The heroes ran outside to find Kayura.
"Time is of the essence. I'll teleport you there." she said.
She raised the shakujo and it glowed, and the nine warriors were transported to the scene, out of the Rangers' view.
"Well the Ronins aren't here. So Shuki was wrong! So let's take care of this guy!"
"On second thought, why don't you take care of us?" a voice said.
(Mystical Armor Gear kicks up)
From behind a corner the five Ronin Warriors and four Dark Warlords stepped onto the battlefield.
"It's them!" Carter shouted.
"Let's destroy them." Leo said.
A message came over Carter's morpher.
"Negative. Leo, you and your team withdraw. Carter, show them what you can do." Shuki said.
"But Master..." Leo began.
"Now Leo!" Shuki shouted.
Leo and his team flew off, leaving Carter and his team along with a severely beaten up Hyuuga.
"Aw, only five? This isn't gonna be too much fun." Kento said.
"So you're the famous Ronin Warriors." Carter said.
"The one and only." Ryo said.
"We've been looking forward to kicking your butts." Chad said.
"Get ready guys." Ryo said.
Carter's team formed up into a line.
"Okay, ready? Lightspeed...Rescue!" they shouted.
One by one they morphed into their Ranger forms.
"Here we go again. Ronin Warriors to Arms!" Ryo shouted.
"Armor of White Neo Wildfire! Tao Jin Jin!" Ryo shouted.
"Armor of White Neo Hardrock! Tao Gi Gi!"
"Armor of White Neo Strata! Tao Inochi Inochi!" Rowen shouted.
"Armor of White Neo Halo! Tao Chi Chi!" Sage shouted.
"Armor of White Neo Torrent! Tao Shin Shin!" Sai shouted.
"Armor of White Neo Cruelty! Tao Chu Chu!" Anubis added.
"Armor of White Neo Corruption! Tao Ko Ko!" Kale shouted.
"Armor of White Neo Venom! Tao Tei Tei!" Sekhmet shouted.
"Armor of White Neo Illusion! Tao Nin Nin!" Dais shouted.
The nine warriors stood in their powerful suits of armor.
"Rescue Blasters, Baton Mode!" The Rangers shouted. They took their weapons and charged our heroes.
"Okay, Anubis, you and the other Warlords go help Hyuuga. We'll handle these guys."
"Batlings!" Carter shouted.
More of the ugly creatures appeared on the scene.
"Destroy them!" Carter commanded.
"On second thought, let's take care of these guys first."
The five Ronins drew their weapons and began attacking. Ryo took down Batling after Batling with his swords. Kento nailed more with his Naginata, while Rowen shot arrow after arrow at more. Sai was also dealing out the damage with his Man-Catcher.
"Sage! Go over there and help him!" Ryo shouted.
"On my way." Sage said.
"We will cover you Halo." Anubis said.
Anubis began twirling the chain of his Kasari Gama.
"Quake with Fear!" he shouted, plunging the weapon into the ground and entangling many of the creatures, allowing Sage to reach Hyuuga.
"Are you all right?" he asked Hyuuga.
"I've had better days." he replied.
"Hang on. You'll be as good as new in a few minutes." Sage said.
Sage called upon his Virtue of Wisdom and within seconds beams of light streamed from his armor, healing Hyuuga's wounds.
"Any better?" Sage asked.
"Yes, and I think I'm strong enough to help you out." Hyuuga said.
He raised his sword to the sky and shouted Kishi Tensei, transforming himself into Kurokishi once more. He quickly changed his sword to shotgun mode and began blasting various Batlings with it. He then began slashing others down as the two rejoined the others.
"Let's show these guys what we can really do." Ryo said.
They brandished their weapons.
Ryo leapt into the air, Kento began twirling his staff, Rowen readied his bow, while Sage readied his sword, Sai aimed his man-catcher, Anubis began twirling his Kama, while Kale readied his sword, Sekhmet prepared his, and Dais readied his Chin Lin Tou. The Rangers cowered in terror.
"Flare Up...NOW!" Ryo screamed.
"Iron Rock Crusher!" Kento added.
"Arrow Shock...wave!" Rowen shouted.
"Thunder...Bolt Cut!" Sage shouted.
"Super Wave Smasher!" Sai shouted.
"Quake With Fear!" Anubis shouted.
"Black Lightning Slash!" Kale shouted.
"Snake Fang Strike!" Sekhmet shouted.
"Web of Deception!" Dais shouted.
The sure-kill attacks slammed into the Rangers, knocking them out of morph and leaving them entangled in chains and webs.
"Now go cower back to your boss and tell him that the Ronin Warriors will take down any threat he sends at them." Ryo said.
Rather than leave, Carter managed to reach his morpher.
"Leo! Now!" Carter shouted.
Suddenly the Ronins were nailed by a shower of blaster fire, knocking them to the ground along with Hyuuga. The other Rangers soared in on their Jet Jammers and cut the Lightspeed Team free, who quickly transformed again.
"More Rangers? And I thought this was going to be boring." Kale said.
"Welcome Rangers, you came all this way to die." Dais said.
"Let's get these guys!" Leo said.
The five summoned their Quasar Launchers, while Carter called in the Rescue Bird in Unilaser Mode. They fired, knocking the heroes for a loop.
"That hurt..." Kento said.
"Somebody get the number of that truck." Rowen said.
"This is getting out of hand. Ryo, we should break out the heavy artillery." Anubis suggested.
"Good idea."
"Had enough?" Carter asked.
"Actually, we're just warming up." Kento said.
(Just Communication kicks up)
The nine warriors banished their White Neo Armors, and their sub-armor transformed into armored Gundam Wing Jumpsuits.
"This doesn't look good." Leo said.
"Armor of Zero Wildfire! Tao Jin!" Ryo shouted.
"Armor of Nataku Hardrock! Tao Gi!" Kento shouted.
"Armor of the Griepe Strata! Tao Inochi!" Rowen shouted.
"Armor of the Zeus Halo! Tao Chi!" Sage shouted.
"Armor of the Sandrock Torrent! Tao Shin!" Sai shouted.
"Armor of the Deathscythe! Tao Chu!" Anubis shouted.
"Armor of the Epyon! Tao Ko!" Kale shouted.
"Armor of the Ashura! Tao Tei!" Sekhmet shouted.
"Armor of the Virsago! Tao Nin!" Dais shouted.
Their respective mecha appeared behind them and split into energy. First the forearms attached to their sub-armor, followed by the forelegs. Then the chest locked into place. Finally, their respective helmets appeared before them and put them on, and as they fitted them onto their heads they flashed with energy and when it dissipated additional armor had attached to the empty spots. The nine stood there resembling down to the last detail their respective Gundam model.
"What are those things?" Damon asked.
"I'm not exactly sure. But we should stop them before they do anything." Leo said.
"Lights of Orion, Activate!" the five shouted, going through the motions.
In a short amount of time the five had powered up.
"Power Rangers! Powered up mode!" Leo shouted.
The five began to run at the Ronins.
"Autocannons online." Ryo said.
Twin gatling weapons emerged from his armors shoulders and began firing, preventing the five from performing their finishing attack. The twin guns retracted.
"Okay guys, spread out and send them packing." Ryo said.
He drew his swords and headed for Leo, who blocked with his own sword.
"Sting Wingers!" Kai shouted. The winged monsters appeared.
"Batlings!" Carter shouted.
"Okay, let's take them down." Kento shouted.
(Trauma kicks up)
He activated his Dragon Fang and fired it out, which latched onto one of the Batlings. He then burned it to a crisp with his flame-throwers. The weapon retracted and folded back as he grabbed his staff to beat down more.
Sai activated his Cross Crusher and began taking out Sting Winger after Sting Winger with it. He then activated his twin head vulcans and began firing at more, and then took down even more with his beam machine gun.
Anubis cut through soldier after soldier with his mighty Scythe, and mowed more down with his vulcan cannons and shoulder machine cannons.
Sekhmet slashed through others with his numerous swords, but managed to take a few out with his eyelasers. Dais meanwhile was blasting them with his chest Megasonic gun while nailing them from a distance with his claw beams. Kale chopped through them with his sword and took out more with his heat rod.
In a short amount of time the minions had been trashed and it was time for our heroes to deal with their newest opponents.
Kai charged at Kento with his sword drawn, but Kento blocked with his staff, and grabbed him with his dragon fang, and torched him before tossing him away. Damon charged at Rowen, but he blocked with his staff mode and let him have it with his cannon, knocking the Ranger away.
Maya moved in on Sage, but he blocked with his own sword. He then summoned his hammer and knocked her away. Meanwhile, Karone charged at Sai, who grabbed her with his Cross Crusher, and used it to send her flying. He then readied his Mancatcher and attacked with that before sending her packing with a spray from his beam machine gun.
Carter headed for Anubis, who stopped his V-Lancer with his scythe, then nailed him with his buster shield, the blast knocking the warrior away.
Kale slashed at Chad with his own weapon, and then lashed him with his heat rod, knocking him away. Sekhmet was no match for the combined assault of the two girls, and Dais easily dealt with Joel.
The Rangers landed with a thud as the Ronins prepared to take them out with their full power.
"That's enough! Galactabeasts Arise!" Leo shouted.
The beasts walked on the scene and quickly merged into the Galaxy Megazord. Carter summoned his team's Zords as well.
"Okay, Lightspeed Megazord!" Carter said.
Joel flew in with Aero Rescue Three and used his magnetic grapples to lift up Hydro Rescue Two. Haz Rescue 4 and Med Rescue Five then lifted themselves up to form the legs, which Joel carefully lowered Chad and Hydro Rescue Two on top of, and steam erupted as the two locked into place. Carter then extended the ladder arms of Pyro Rescue One and connected to Hydro Rescue Two, and pulled itself into place and locked in as well. Finally, Aero Rescue Three transformed and landed on top, forming the Lightspeed Megazord.
"I'll handle this one. Gou Taurus!" Hyuuga shouted.
The large beast walked on the scene and enlarged him into Juukishi.
"Kiju Gashin!" Hyuuga shouted.
Gou Taurus transformed and they became Bull Taurus.
Bull Taurus took the Knight Axe and stood ready to destroy the two machines. They prepared their swords and began to duel with the large warrior.
"Galaxy Megazord Saber, Powered Up Mode!" Leo shouted.
The large machine slashed at Bull Taurus, damaging it.
"Lightspeed Megazord Saber! Ignite!" Carter shouted, slashing an intimidating flame circle before slashing down at Bull Taurus, damaging it even more.
"That guy's not doing so well." Ryo said.
"I suggest we give them a taste of our full power." Anubis said.
The nine readied their weapons and prepared to go into kata motions, but suddenly they were blasted by Magna Defender! Mike had arrived on the scene.
"That takes care of them. Okay Carter, take him out!" Mike shouted.
"Will do." Carter said.
Carter extended the Ladder Arms of the Megazord, picking up the weakened Bull Taurus. He then threw him, causing Gou Taurus to vanish and sending Hyuuga flying out and to the Ronins' side.
"Okay, let's finish them off! Supert..." Carter began.
"Negative. Rangers, withdraw and return to the Megaship. You will receive further instructions there."
"But Master, we have them right where we..." Carter said.
"NOW!" Shuki shouted.
"We've got to go now Ronins. Sorry we can't stay. Enjoy the agony of your defeat." Carter said.
The eleven warriors withdrew, leaving the Ronins down along with Hyuuga. The nine somehow managed to get to their feet and opened up their face plates.
"How did they do that?" Anubis said.
"They beat the living daylights out of us!" Kento shouted in disgust.
"Is it just me or has this happened on a regular basis for us lately?" Sai asked.
"Yeah, you're right Sai. They keep beating us up for some reason." Rowen pointed out.
"But why? These armors were made by Amaterasu herself. How come they're doing jack to those guys?" Sage wondered.
"I am not sure Sage of the Halo. But this may have something to do with whatever, or whomever is working with Shuki." Anubis said.
"You mean that reading we got from the Mystic Knights before it fried our sensors?" Kento asked.
"Yes Hardrock. Unfortunately we were unable get a clear reading. All we know is that they had Gems of Power and they were being enhanced somehow." Anubis said.
"But that still does not explain their power surges." Dais reminded him.
"Yes, when we used the
Gems they never did anything like that." Kale added.
"You're right, the Gems could not have done that. We still have not figured out what has enhanced the Mystic Knights." Anubis said.
"So what's going to happen when we do find out?" Rowen asked.
"All I know, it's not gonna be pretty..." Ryo said.
Back at the Megaship...
"Master! Why do you keep preventing us from showing our true potential? We could have beaten them and been done with them!" Carter shouted.
Shuki was on the view screen on the bridge as the ten warriors stood unmorphed.
"You have no idea what those armors can do, do you Carter." Shuki said.
"No, but I'm sure we can stop them!" Carter said.
The image of Shuki's face cut to a shot of the Mystic Knights fight. The Rangers watched as the Mystic Knights' powered up attacks got canceled out by the Ronins ultra sure-kills, vaporizing them. He cut to more footage, of the five Ronins beating up the Mystic Knights with their sure-kill attacks. Finally the image returned to Shuki.
"As you can see Rangers, that could have been you. These new suits of armor that the Ronins have are more powerful than anything we've faced before. It was only through repeated supercharging that the Mystic Knights lasted as long as they did. Fortunately, I am working on a way to remedy this problem. Behold the Titanium Ranger."
The image changed once again to a Power Ranger in silver armor. Shuki's voice was heard in the background.
"Dana, your brother Ryan as you know is the wielder of the Titanium Power. These powers are far beyond any Ranger the Ronins have faced prior. On top of that, because he has been created exclusively by Lightspeed, and the technology was not stolen or duplicated from a sentai team as your powers have been, we may finally have a way to defeat those accursed Ronins. On top of that, I am working on something special for the Lightspeed Rangers." Shuki said.
"Master, why won't the Ronins be expecting the Titanium Ranger?" Karone asked.
"Because his powers were not cloned from a sentai team that we captured, the Ronins will have no knowledge of these powers existence. Thus they will be unprepared for his assault." Shuki explained.
"Yeah! Now those blasted Ronins will finally be destroyed!" Joel shouted.
Our heroes have fought against Shuki's latest challengers, and barely survived their assault. Now Shuki plans to strike with an unknown trump card known as the Titanium Ranger. Can our heroes manage to defeat this new threat? Can Hyuuga and the Ronins get to Gingaman in time? Find out as Ronin Warriors vs. Power Rangers Lost Galaxy and Lightspeed Rescue continues...
