POWER RANGERS MYTHIC KNIGHTS
EPISODE 2: Insanity is thy Name
Written by Zak Kayes, Joey Turner, Jimmy Maeher
GRIEGER'S CASTLE
The mighty King Grieger III sat on his throne, looking at a mirror which shows a replay of the events of the three rangers against Triano. He stared at the screen, elbow on the throne arm with his hand on his face. However he raised his head to see JT's fighting.
"Out of all the fierce wariors from around the world…why these particular three?" However Grieger sat up when he saw footage of JT laughing. "Maybe…yes…I think the yellow one could be of use to me. Yuranzo, bring me the deck."
Yuranzo entered with a silver tray holding a deck of thick cards with pictures of Demon Generals. Whenever Grieger wished to summon a monster, he needed only select it from the deck of cards and give it to Yuranzo. Cast inside of the Netherworld, the monster in the card would be brought to life.
"Yes, my liege?" asked Yuranzo.
Griefer reached his hand over and picked the deck off the tray, looking through the cards. "I know exactly which monster to summon." He selected a card with a weird jester like bulky monster with clown shoes and bulky shoulders. "You remember this one, don't you?"
Yuranzo examined the card then giggles evilly. "Ahh yes…the old jester from Qerravale who was executed for poisoning the Prince. Now he works for us."
Grieger handed Yuranzo the card. Yuranzo walked to the balcony and chucked the card into the Nether. A few seconds later, an arch of electricity shot out and landed in the middle of the throne room. The bulky jester stood before them with glowing red eyes.
"Greetings, your highness. You called?" said the demon, bowing to Grieger.
"I ask of you a simple task Juggiggle." Said Grieger. "Poison the city with your laughing gas."
"Heh, sounds easy enough for me." Said Jugiggle.
"Laughing gas? Really?" scoffed Yuranzo, as he played with the bell on his hat out of boredom. "Oh that's good…you can't poison someone with laughing gas."
Juggigle pointed his cannon arm at a Demonite and shot a ball at the Demonite which upon impact exploded with pink gas. The Demonite began to laugh and dropped to the ground coughing before suddenly his head explodes.
Yuranzo stood frozen, as he watched with a look of fear on his face. "I stand corrected…"
"If any of the Knight Rangers get in your way, you know what to do. " said Grieger.
"I'm guessing eliminate them from the face of the earth?" asked Jugiggle, an evil fire in his eyes. "With pleasure."
Jugiggle left and the door closed behind him. In the shadows, Triano's eyes glowed in the darkness.
AT THE WEST MEADOWBOROUGH HIGH SCHOOL
Vance, Alexis, and JT walked together in the courtyard of the school, finally finishing the day's 8th period and looking forward to going back to the base to continue their training.
"You know, last night…" said Vance. "I thought that whole battle was nothing but a dream, that this was all a joke. But look at us now. Power Rangers!"
"Keep it down you two." said Alexis. "We don't want to attract any attention…"
"Says the guy who thought Power Rangers only existed in my sick, twisted little fantasy." Remarked JT.
"You think I'd let on that I cared about them in front of the Principal? Fat chance!"
The three rangers arrived at their lockers, which just so happened to be close together.
"This schoolwork's a bore, I'm eager to get back to training." Pouted Alexis. "Who cares who signed the Declaration of…whatever? What about the most significant battles? Like the Second Demon Coming of 583?"
"Therein lies the so called beauty of history class," laughed JT, putting his stuff in his locker. "Even when they're dead, we never shut up about them!"
"…I don't get it." Said Alexis.
"SOMEDAY YOU WILL!" exclaimed JT.
Vance chuckled lightly. It was good to see his best friend finally interacting with a girl that didn't want to introduce the business end of her high heel to JT's entertainment district. It was clear to Vance that JT was smitten. None of the girls ever caught JT's attention, at least as far as Vance knew. But, as corny as it sounded in his head, there was something magical about Alexis. The last thing Vance wanted however: a possible love triangle.
"Hey, Vinny!" yelled a voice not far from them.
Vance, JT, and Alexis stopped and Vance turned to see a large, bald, muscular, Mexican teen heading towards them with a football jersey jacket. Most of the students who happened to be around scattered like mice when they saw Quintin. That was for good reason. Quintin was the kind of person who would easily win Jerk of the Month. For months, Quintin's friends tormented Vance and JT but every time, Vance was always there to defend JT. Old habits just never die, huh?
"Where you headed to? Detention again?" He said, tauntingly. His buddies behind him laughed.
"Where we're going is none of your business Quintin." said Vance, crossing his arms. "….Who the hell started this whole calling-me-Vinny thing?"
JT scooted away guiltily. "Tee-hee?" Vance just rolled his eyes.
"You've got some nerve showing your face around here after what you did to my bud, Greg." Said a furious Quintin.
Vance chuckled lightly. "Oh right…Greg…heh…well maybe I was a little rough with him. Shit happens, right?"
"You're lucky Vance didn't break Greg's skull." said Alexis. "The things I've heard this Greg guy do are despicable."
"Ooo, fancy words from a chick." laughed Quintin. "Why don't you ditch the zeroes and get with the heroes."
After a moment, JT facepalmed. "…really. You really just said that. That's…just sad. You're now 70% stupider for saying that."
Quintin rolled his eyes. "Shut it, nerd. Ok, then let me try this again. The names Quintin West, lead quarterback for the Meadowborough Lions and you, pretty lady?"
"Not even remotely interested." replied Alexis.
Quintin's two buddies behind him started laughing but one look from Quintin stopped their laughing.
"What do you want Quintin?" asked Vance.
"You chose the wrong time to sideline one of my star players Vance." said Quintin. "We got a big game coming up this weekend and let's just say, we're looking for recruits."
"Yea…we got plans." Said JT, scratching the back of his neck. "I got this uhh…really…bad toenail rash that I need to get checked out….in Mexico."
"We all have plans and the answer is no." said Vance, beginning to turn around to walk away.
"Who said I was giving you a choice?" said Quintin, crossing his arms with a smirk.
Vance paused and turned back.
"Principal Swanson told me that I have a choice in who is going to replace Greg and what a lucky day it is for you" Quintin raises his hand and points it at JT. "…JT."
"ME!" exclaimed JT.
Alexis' jaw dropped. "You can't be serious."
"I don't even know the first thing about football!" said JT. "Why would she say that?"
"Cuz she hates you?" asked Quintin.
"Oh yeah, that's why." Said JT, laughing nervously.
"JT is going to get annihilated out there," said Vance. "You can't expect him to learn everything about football in two days!"
JT raised his finger about to make a point but he then paused, looking over at Vance, a little angry. "You sayin' I ain't MAN enough?"
"What—no! I didn't mean it like that."
"You sayin' I go around in ladies clothing skipping up and down the park saying: I'M MRS. BUTTER-PANTS?" yelled JT.
"…where the hell did THAT come from?" asked Vance, knowing he should have been used to JT's randomness.
"…nowhere." JT laughed nervously. "Anyways, Quintin, I accept yo petty wittle challenge but with two conditions."
"Oh this ought to be good." Says Quintin with a smirk.
"Allright, how about this…" JT ponders for a moment. "I got it! If I score the winning touchdown, Quintin here's got to do something REALLY embarrassing in front of everyone."
"Like that will ever happen." Scoffed Quintin.
"And second," continued JT. "Should we win, you leave me, Alexis, and Vance alone for the rest of the semester and the rest of our lives ….and you give me 50 bucks every third Thursday of every month!"
"30!" argued Quintin.
"45!"
"25!"
"26!"
Quintin groaned. "Fine. Deal! But if JT loses, JT is gonna become my towel boy for the rest of the year.
"Towel boy?" JT thought for a moment then shivered a bit. "Allright…I accept."
"Good. I look very forward to the weekend." said Quintin with a smirk, then looking over at Alexis. "I'll be seeing you in the stands, pretty lady."
Alexis rolled her eyes. "My father's a cop."
Quintin's eyes widened. "Err…moving on!" With that, Quintin walked away quickly.
Vance turned and looks at Alexis. "…since when is your dad—"
Alexis quickly buttoned Vance's lips. "Shut up!"
"…what the hell have I gotten myself into…" groaned JT.
THE KNIGHT RANGER BASE
ONE HOUR LATER
The three rangers are morphed and facing towards three wooden statues.
"Rangers, your skills are improving." Terretto said as he walked in front of the rangers. "But even while OUR power grows, so do Grieger's. You must be ready to strike and overpower his forces. Thus I have added special attacks to your Power Weapons to give you an edge in battle."
"AWESOMENESS!" yelled JT. "Let's DO THIS!"
JT prepared to charge but Vance held him back.
"Uh-uh-uh! Leader and ladies before crazies!" said Vance. He extended his hand out and his Red Dragon Sword materialized. He got into a stance and the S-shaped part of his sword spun like a top, catching on fire. Charging forward, Vance leapt into the air. "RED DRAGON FIRE SLASH!" he yelled, slicing the demon right down the middle. "Call me clichéd, but THAT'S how I bring down the FIRE!"
"Excellent Vance." Applauded Terretto. "Now you Alexis."
She turned to Vance. "Let me show you how a real ranger takes care of business." She got into a stance. "ICE SCORPION, FINAL 5 STRIKE!" Alexis shot out 5 ice blasts at the dummy, encasing the dummy in ice. She extended her hand and summoned her Ice Bow, shooting out an arrow which shattered the dummy.
"Most impressive my top student." Said Terretto, Alexis bowing before him. "And now…."
JT began jumping up and down with his hand raised. "OOH! ME NEXT! LET ME GO NEXT! CAN I GO NEXT! OH PWEEEAAAASSSEEEE?"
Terretto turned to JT and smiled JT. "Go ahead JT."
"YAY! HA-GI-GI!" squealed JT as he brought his hand out, summoning his Thunder Axe then leapt at the dummy. "Thunderbolt Slice!" A thunderbolt struck JT's axe, and he started slicing at the dummy like a mad-man.
"Don't you think he's over-doing it?" whispered Alexis to Vance.
Vance smiled. "…that was a thought, but he IS getting results."
JT stopped slicing and the dummy was reduced to dust. He panted before putting away his axe. "And THAT…is why I won't work the lumberjack business anymore."
Alexis shook her head and turned to Vance. "Would it kill him to be more serious about this? To be honest, I don't think he's as dedicated as us."
Overhearing this, JT demorphs and walks over to Vance and Alexis. "Aww, does the wittle wizard lady not like THE THUNDA!"
"Didn't your parents ever teach you anything?" said an irritated Alexis.
Vance gulped. The one thing JT hated to hear spoken in a bad way was his deceased parents. Quintin loved to use that as a weak point to provoke JT. Oh yes JT was all laughs and fun…but when pissed off, JT's attitude took a complete three-sixty. Alexis, having no idea the ramfications of her words, was in for a big surprise.
JT's signature smile was now replaced with a more serious frown. "Allright, that's it. What the hell is your problem with me? THIS is who I am and you wouldn't even know the first thing about that!"
Alexis backed up, surprised by the sudden change of attitude. "Relax, I was just—"
"No! I'm not going to relax! Obviously my 'goofiness' or 'craziness' upsets you. Well in this day and age, it doesn't hurt to have fun. I've been dreaming all my life to be a Power Ranger and now that I am, I think I'm entitled to have some fun. But what would you know about fun, Alexis? You have your books to keep you company while I have FRIENDS. Oh and by the way, don't you EVER bring up my parents again, got it! They taught me a lot more than you'll ever know! And another thing, just because you wear the blue wizard cape, DOESN'T MAKE YOU THE BOSS OF ME!"
Alexis had been backed into a corner, staring into the fire within JT's eyes. Even though she was completely surprised and a bit terrified at the moment…she was kind of attracted to the anger. At least now, she was seeing a different side of him.
Vance had gently put his hand on JT's shoulder. "Jack. She didn't know. Ok? Now come on, let's get back to training."
JT and Alexis stared at one another, until the alarm suddenly went off. Vance headed straight into the base but Alexis and JT were reluctant to follow.
Terretto placed his hands onto the crystal ball, showing downtown. "There's some sort of mysterious cloud spreading a gas in the city."
"Poison?" asked Vance.
"I'm unsure. You three had better check it out."
"Gee, I don't know." Remarked JT, still visibly angry. "Are you sure you guys need me? After all I'm not dedicated…"
"Aww, come on JT." Said Vance, ruffling JT's hair, pulling out a huge cookie. "I'll give you my big COOOOOOOKIE."
JT got his smile back and took a huge bite out of Vance's cookie. "JT, go beat up cloud!"
The three of them draw their morphers. "MYTHIC KNIGHTS, UNITE!"
DOWNTOWN SUNDRAVILLE
Three beams of light teleported onto the sidewalk where Jugiggle had shot several pink balls that bounced off of some of the buildings and exploded, emitting pink gas from them.
"Teleporting is AWESOME!" exclaimed JT.
"Well, glad to see you got your smile back." Said Alexis.
"Yeah, the power of teleporting and cookies heal all angry people." Said Vance.
"Ahh so you must be the Knight Rangers!" said a voice, making the rangers turn.
"OH MY GOD!" yelled JT. "IT'S…some demon I've never seen before!"
Vance turned to look at Alexis. "Another old friend of yours?
Alexis shook her head. "No…not this one."
"Allow me to introduce myself. I have many names but you may simply call me Jugiggle."
"Whose drunken momma gave you that name?" snickered JT.
"You're laughing now," said Jugiggle. "But let me give you something to laugh about!"
Jugiggle shot out several pink balls that bounced around and slammed into the rangers, surrounding them in the pink gas.
Vance stopped in the middle of his run and begins to cough, raising his hand up. "What the hell is this stuff?"
"It smells horrible!" said Alexis, coughing as well.
"I don't know what you guys are talking about," said JT. "I don't smell anything."
As the gas cleared, Vance ran out from the gas with his Red Dragon Sword and rolled under a punch from Jugiggle, landing two good strikes, blocking a kick with his own, but a pink bomb blast knocked Vance back. Alexis leaped into the air and drove both of her knees into the back of Jugiggle's head. Jugiggle stumbled back and Alexis shot out several arrows at Jugiggle but they were deflected off of his rock hide. Alexis brough out her dagger and charged at Jugiggle but she got blasted in the face by a pink bomb. A stunned Alexis was met with several vicious claw strikes before being picked up and slammed back down to the ground. Jugiggle was about to stomp onto Alexis but JT stunned him with a lightning bolt. Alexis rolled away and Vance and JT charged, shooting lightning bolts and fireballs at Jugiggle, stunning him. Vance ducked under the incoming pink bombs and JT sliced straight through them, charging and dealing heavily strikes but Jugiggle's arms blocked almost all of the hits.
"Jeez, these arms are huge! Someone's been spending way too much time on internet." Remarked JT.
Alexis had finally gotten back up and she was about to charge but she suddenly starts giggling.
Vance turned. "Uh….Alexis?" He dealt a few more strikes to Jugiggle before running over to check on Alexis.
"What? It wasn't that funny." Said a confused JT.
"No!" said Alexis, clutching her stomach, unable to stop laughing. "It's not that! Something else is making me do this!"
"Maybe you should have been the blue hyena ranger." said JT.
Vance chuckled at the comment but then found that he was unable to stop laughing.
"…Vance?" JT said, looking down at Vance. "…I MUST USE THIS PAINFUL JOKING POWER FOR GOOD!
"They're not laughing at you dipthong!" said Jugiggle. "They're laughing BECAUSE of me!"
"The heck did you do to them?" yelled JT.
"Oh that?" Jugiggle laughed, crossing his arms. "Well your friends have just been exposed to my laughing gas bomb, that's all!"
"Laughing gas…wait…" JT pondered for a moment then gasped. "...you're gonna do dentistry on them?"
"Wh-NO!" yelled Jugiggle. "My laughing gas will spread through out the whole city and people will go out dying with laughter!" An evil laugh echoed amongst the walls. "Isn't that the best way to go out?"
"Cooool!" JT then paused. "Err I mean, YOU FIEND!"
Jugiggle issued a hearty laugh. "Ain't I? And I'm afraid I'm gonna have to do the same to you!" He rings both of his hands together and creates a large pink bomb which explodes on contact with JT, surrounding him in gas.
JT begins to fake choking. "OOH! THE GAS! IT BURNS! IT BURNS! GOOD BYE CRUEL LAUGHING WORLD!" He looked around, surprised to find nothing happened. "…uh, so what happens now?"
"Wha?" exclaimed Jugiggle. "WHY ISN'T IT WORKING!"
"HA!" laughed JT. "YO GAS FAILED GIGGLE BOY!" Before JT could charge, he gripped his stomach. "Though I am feeling a nauseas queezy feeling..."
"Good! Now enjoy your second course." Said Jugiggle, beginning to charge.
Suddenly, JT began to twitch and jump around hyperactively. "GAS! YEAH BABY!"
Like a blur, JT dashed forward with his axe, slicing at an immensely quick pace, running around Jugiggle and talking at an incomprehensible level. Jugiggle was unable to defend himself as he was forced to take the ongoing onslaught from JT.
"This one is crazy!" yelled Jugiggle, opening a portal to the Nether. "I'm getting out of here!"
Jugiggle escaped as JT was still mid-air. He suddenly powered down and dropped to one knee, holding his head.
"Woah…what the crap was that?" he said, standing up, looking over at Vance and Alexis who were still laughing. He activated his communicator. "Looks like we're going to need a teleport back…"
THE KNIGHT RANGER BASE
1 HOUR LATER
Vance and Alexis were inside of a bubble, both glowing, and still laughing; however they are inaudible. Terretto had his scepter pointed at the bubble, the orb on the end glowing.
"This should stop the laughing gas from affecting their nervous systems." Said Terretto, chanting a few magic words at the bubble.
Terretto's words caused the glow to become brighter until it disappeared. Vance and Alexis stopped glowing and slowly stopped laughing, Alexis holding her gut.
"Why is my stomach aching like crazy?" asked Alexis.
"That definitely didn't feel like laughing gas." Said Vance, holding his head.
"Ding!" said JT. "Correct! Twas POISONOUS laughing gas!"
"Poisonous?" asked Vance.
"Yeah, didn't you hear him yell it triumphantly at the sky? …over and over?"
"Kinda hard to when you're laughing non-stop." Said Alexis, standing up.
Jugiggle apparently is planning to poison the city with his laughing gas." Said JT. "Now where've I seen this kind of diabolical plan?"
"And he's planning to kill everyone." Said Terretto, walking over to the crystal ball. "As we speak, Jugiggle's laughing gas cloud is getting ready to coat the entire downtown section with the poison."
"Crap…" said Vance. "Well there's got to be a way to stop it, right?"
Terretto shook his head. "I'm unsure. The cloud has been laying laughing gas bombs all around the city. If you try to destroy them with force, they will explode and release the gas into the city."
"So there goes attacking with force." Groaned Alexis.
JT also groaned as he had gotten his hands on a mace, but he quickly discarded it.
Terretto closed his eyes and crossed his arms, his brow furrowing. "The only way I think we can get rid of all of them is by defeating Jugiggle before the poison takes effect."
"And now we got a time limit." Said Vance. "Joy."
Alexis turned to JT. "One thing I don't get is why JT here was immune to it."
"Uh…clearly...uh…I have SUPER POWERS!"
"…you already had super powers," said Vance. "You're a Power Ranger."
"No-no-no!" said JT. "I mean SUPER IMMUNE TO DEADLY GASES POWERS! And maybe strength so powerful, I can break this wall with my head!" To test this theory, JT slammed his head against the wall, which only resulted in a loud thud.
" …how is HE immune!" complained Alexis.
Vance shrugged. "It seemed to work pretty well. You almost beat Jugiggle on your own with how fast you were going."
Terretto walked over next to JT. "It seems that the gas targets the victim's inner psyche, which basically twists and turns the mind until it breaks apart!"
"Just like watching Dr. Phil!" chuckled JT.
"JT seems to be immune to the gas' influence because his mind's craziness and energy over-powers the gas, making it virtually powerless!" said Terretto. "The only thing it caused was a temporary burst of energy."
Alexis crossed her arms and stared at JT. "Let me get this straight…you aren't affected by Jugiggle's laughing gas…because you're crazy?"
"In a way, yes Alexis." Said Terretto.
"AWESOME!" yelled JT, fist pumped into the air. "What's that mean?"
"Well I guess it means that you're leading us in this mission buddy." Said Vance.
"WHAT!" exclaimed Alexis.
"YAY!" said JT jumping up and down in happiness but then paused. "…WHAT!"
"Vance!" said Alexis, walking right up to Vance. "Are you crazy? You're going to let JT be in charge of a mission?"
" I know it's risky Alexis," said Vance. "But JT's the only one who's immune to the gas."
Alexis sighed. "I know, but even without the gas, he's still too unpredictable and crazy! You really want him to lead a battle against Jugiggle?"
Vance nodded. Before Alexis could respond, the alarm went off.
Terretto turned to the crystal ball. "Looks like Jugiggle is getting ready to attack again."
"We need to find a way to get rid of the cloud and those bombs quickly, before the gas takes effect." Said Alexis.
"Well…" started JT. "As temporary leader—"
"Oh joy…" groaned Alexis.
DOWNTOWN
45 MINUTES LATER
A giant pink cloud had collected over the city, almost forming a hat. The Red Dragon Zord flew over the city, patrolling for any site of Jugiggle.
Vance stood in the cockpit with a gas mask on his helmet. "No sign of Jugiggle anywhere."
Alexis stationed herself on a rooftop, overlooking the city with a gas mask. "Nothing here either."
JT stood in the main station square un-morphed, looking around. "Just about everyone have gas masks now." He looked up at the clock tower. "I thought we were gonna use code names!"
Vance sighed. "Dragon Eagle and Cold-Heart checking in with Chimers Hot n' Tots."
"Ah, now I can hear ya." Said JT, chuckling lightly. "Chimera Hot n' Tots here, still no sign of Gas Clown!"
"By the way, why am I Cold-Heart?" asked Alexis.
JT giggled nervously. "...no reason." JT turned, only to be blasted right in the face with a pink bomb, sending him skidding back. "Strike that, Gas Clown has made contact. Preparing the trap!" JT quickly ran into an alley.
Jugiggle walked into the middle of the square. "Where is he? I coulda sworn I saw him come this way!"
A morphed JT snuck up behind Juggigle and tapes him on the shoulder. "Hey ugly!" Jugiggle turned but was hit with an axe. "Whoops, over here!" Jugiggle turned again but he was hit again.
JT continued this, getting faster and faster until a large thunderbolt sends Jugiggle slamming through a post van. "What kind of crazy ranger is this?"
"The crazy ranger that kicked ya'lls ugly butt!" laughed JT, spinning his axe in his hand. "HIT IT!"
"On it!" said Vance, soaring up in front of the cloud. "One Gas-repellant dragon wind, coming up!"
Vance thrust the sword in the stand forward and the Dragon's wings begin to flap, spreading a glowing mist of sorts that wrapped itself around the cloud.
"What the heck are you doing!" yelled Jugiggle, looking up at the cloud That's my cloud, you fool!
"Not anymore!" said Vance. "Now it's mine!"
The mist enveloped the cloud and the Dragon's mouth opened, the mist sucked into the mouth which then clamped shut.
"Of course if you DO want it back…" continued Vance as he thrust the sword again, which caused the Dragon to shoot a fireball down at Jugiggle that knocks him back.
Alexis and Vance jumped down and landed next to JT.
"The heat is on Jugiggle!" said JT. "And your gas is passed!" He paused. "….why did I say that!
"This is impossible!" yelled Jugiggle. "Laughter is supposed to be the best medicine!
"In some cases, yea, it can be." stated JT. "And if it is the case today, then THE DOCTOR IS IN THE HOUSE!"
"Demonites, destroy them!" growled Jugiggle, dispatching a small squad of Demonites.
"You handle those Demonites," said JT. "I got this clown!"
Vance and Alexis leapt into the swarm and easily dispatched of them. JT and Jugiggle exchanged strikes but Jugiggle decided not to use his laughing gas bombs and went on the heavy offensive with his claws. JT swung his axe several times, hitting several strong strikes against Jugiggle before blasting him back with a strong lightning bolt. Vance and Alexis front flip over JT and use both fire and ice to deliver critical hits to Jugiggle.
Vance turned to JT and handed him a crystal. "JT, you think it's time we show Jugiggle how crazy you really are?"
"You had me at crazy!" said JT, grabbing the crystal and absorbing it's power, making him glow.
"Hey! What are you doing!" yelled Jugiggle.
"Giving you a taste of your own medicine." Said Alexis.
After JT finishes glow, he begins bouncing up and down like a jack hammer. "HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAI-GI-GI!" he yelled out before zooming forward like a blur, slicing and dicing at Jugiggle before aiming for the final strike. "THUNDERBOLT SLICE!"
JT raised his axe to the sky and it was struck by lightning, glowing bright with electricity. Gripping the axe with both hands, JT swung it several times in the air which caused several thunder waves to slice into Jugiggle. JT then charged, front flipped, and sliced deep into Jugiggle, sending him back into a building which resulted in an explosion.
"…" exclaimed JT before he began to slow down. "Salsa….macharena…" He coughed and faceplanted on the road. "Ow…" Vance and Alexis helped him up. "Ok…at this point I'm willing to admit that maybe…JUST maybe…this wasn't such a good idea for me to be the guinea pig in this situation."
A thunderbolt struck on the remaining parts of Jugiggle, rebuilding him and making him bigger than before.
"I'm sensing a theme here." Remarked JT.
Both Alexis and JT raised their hands up as Vance leaped up back into the Red Dragon he had left parked nearby. "WE SUMMON YOU, MYTHIC ZORDS!"
A portal opened in the sky and the three Mythico Zords descend down across from Jugiggle. The three rangers leap into their respective Zord's heads and plug their swords into the stands.
"His laughing gas could be even more powerful now that he's in mega mode." Said Alexis.
Vance pointed to his gas mask. "That's why we have these."
Right when the Red Dragon was about to charge, blaring music was heard from the Chimera Zord. JT had plugged his iPod but when he saw everyone else looking at him, he immediately turned it off.
"…sorry, I wanted to see if the radio worked." Said a nervous JT. "So uh…LET'S DO THIS!"
The Red Dragon took to the sky and the Chimera and Scorpion Zords charged into battle. Jugiggle was ready for the fight however instead of laughing gas bombs, now Jugiggle used REAL bombs. He rolled them on the ground like bowling balls and they collided into the Chimera and Scorpion, stunning them. The Scorpion stinger shoots out several lasers and the Chimera shoot out a few lightning balls which connect, stunning Jugiggle. The chimera leaps at Jugiggle but he punches him out of the air and grabs the scorpion, using it's stinger to try and shoot the Red Dragon out of the sky. The Scorpion quickly slices at Jugiggle and escapes.
"Looks like someone doesn't know how to aim!" laughs JT. "And also, why don't these things have reboot buttons!" He looked down at a red button labeled RESET and pressed it, bringing his Zord back online. "Oooh, I was wondering what that was."
The Red Dragon Zord swooped around and fired its wing cannons, knocking Jugiggle back. The Scorpion moved in and delivered several Stinger strikes and the Chimera zord launched itself and successfully tackles Jugiggle.
"These feeble attacks are starting to bore me," said a weakened Jugiggle. "BRING IT ON!"
"Ok!" said Vance. "But you asked for it!"
The Red Dragon swooped in and suddenly grabbed Jugiggle, flying high up into the air with him.
"HEY!" exclaimed Jugiggle. "What are you doing!"
"Just giving you a sky high tour of the city!" Said Vance. But more importantly, a taste of your own medicine!"
Vance took Jugiggle up as high as he could go then threw him further up into the air. The Red Dragon quickly dashes down next to JT and Alexis' Zords.
"Let's roast this guy!" said Alexis.
"I prefer my demons fricasseed," said JT. "But whatever works."
"TRINITY BLAST!"
Charging up energy beams from their mouths; all three rangers thrust their swords forward, sending the combined blast at the cloud. Right when the blast struck the cloud, Jugiggle entered it from the fall and the explosion destroyed not only the cloud but Jugiggle as well. The bombs around the city also dematerialized around the city.
"And boom goes the demon clown man." Said JT.
"I'll hand it to you JT," said Alexis. "I didn't think this plan would work."
"So this means I get to hear the three magical words that I've wanted to hear?" asked JT.
Alexis took in a deep breath and then sighed. "I was wrong…
"OH YEAH!" said JT, jumping for joy. "SHE SAID IT! OH YEAH!"
"But don't let that get to your head!" snapped Alexis.
JT's zord began to do a victory dance but then it suddenly tripped, faceplanting. "…I meant to do that."
Meanwhile, a mysterious knight in all black armor stood on one of the rooftops, watching the battle.
"At last…" he said. "A worthy opponent to test my skills. When the time comes Red Knight…we will duel."
THE KNIGHT RANGERS BASE
Vance and JT entered through the rock entrance, Vance giving JT a high five. Terretto was there to welcome them.
"Excellent work as always my knights." Said Terretto. "You've cured the city of its laughing terror, and restored everyone back to normal."
"Yep," said JT, brushing his shoulder. "For once, the screw-up saved the day! Say it!"
Vance chuckled lightly and smiled. "We couldn't have done it without you JT. You may be crazy, but the craziness is what helps the team out."
"That's right it is! And did wittle Lexi learn anything?" JT paused and looked to his left and right.
Vance looked over JT's shoulder to see Alexis slowly sneaking up on JT with a pie in her hand. Vance tried to keep a straight face, covering his mouth with his hand.
"Uh…JT?" he said.
"Wha?" asked JT, tilting his head then turning around. "Is she right behind-" JT was met with a pie straight to his face. "…me."
Alexis couldn't help but laugh at what she had done. "Looks like the "bitter hot lady" DOES have some crazy in her! Hmm?"
JT licked some of the pie off of his face. "Not bad Lexi, of course you do realize this means war!"
"And what do you plan to do about it, redhead?" said Alexis, her hands on her hips.
"You forget little girl…" said JT, pulling out two pies. "I always keep spare pies in my back pockets!"
"Oh Arthur no!" gulped Alexis.
"Oh Arthur YES!" said JT with a maniacal laugh, giving chase to Alexis with his two pies.
A very confused Vance watched the action unfold before him, placing two fingers on his forehead. "This is gonna take time to get used to…"
