Megaforce Meets Samurai
Onward! To more somewhat adapted Goseiger VS Shinkenger movie!
Part 2 of 3
"Jayden?" Kevin asked in shock.
"You're okay?" Mike asked warily. Jayden didn't respond. His face was still a blank mask.
"Hey…" Mia began, eyes narrowed suspiciously. "Doesn't something seem off?"
"What do you mean?" Emily asked, confused. The Megaforce rangers remained silent and ready.
Jayden stopped walking, and the most uncharacteristically vicious smirk flashed across his face, as he held his samuraizer ready. The smirk fell as he traced his symbol in the air, not saying the usual chant. His symbol wasn't the normal bright scarlet as usual, it almost seemed to contain shadows.
In his place stood the red samurai ranger, but with a twist. A sudden black cloud covered him, but left a black version of the super samurai cape on him. The red ranger slashed his spin sword, causing the burning flames surrounding him to dissipate.
Kevin and the other's eyes widened as they gasped in horror. Jayden's black cape flapped in the breeze. The others took a careful look at his now black gloves as well.
Jayden casually reached over and spun the fire disc on his spin sword, as flames surrounded the blade. With unexpected swiftness, he slashed horizontally, sending a wave of flames at the Megaforce rangers, who morphed just in time for their suits to take the hit. Even so, they still let out screams of pain and fell to the ground.
The samurai watched in shock as Jayden sprinted towards the downed rangers, full speed. The Megaforce team quickly got to their feet, only for Gia to be slashed in the chest by the red samurai. The other Megaforce rangers quickly received the same attack.
"Jayden!" Kevin shouted. "Please stop this!" Jayden continued his rampage by getting a powerful attack on Jake and Gia.
"Jayden…" Emily screamed. "No…" Jayden was still unaffected as he took down both Noah and Emma.
"What is going on?" Mike asked in despair. The red samurai dealt two blows to Troy's chest.
"But that's definitely Jayden's sword fighting style…" Mia whispered. Jayden sent a blazing strike at the Megaforce rangers, sending them backwards and rolling. The red samurai stood straight and turned to face his teammates, who stepped back in shock.
"Jayden…" Kevin muttered.
"Is this for real?" Mike frowned.
Jayden raised his spin sword.
"Jayden…" Mia gasped.
Jayden lifted his hand to the fire disc on his sword.
"Stop it!" Emily whispered. "Stop it Jayden!"
Jayden slashed his sword horizontally. A wave of fire sped towards the unprotected samurai.
The ground where they were standing exploded. The samurai screamed and fell backwards.
The four stared at their leader, faces showing fear, betrayal, confusion, and hurt. Jayden relaxed into a less threatening stance, as two figures appeared behind him, one laughing maniacally. Buredoran and the large shouldered Nighlok stood behind the red samurai.
"Have you seen for yourselves?" Buredoran laughed. "This is the red ranger when he's on our side." The fallen Megaforce rangers nearby were getting up.
"I knew you were behind this!" Troy exclaimed.
"What have you done to our leader?" Kevin demanded. Jayden stepped forward again, activating his Fire Smasher. Buredoran didn't respond.
Jayden readied his enormous sword.
"Jayden…" Whispered each samurai in turn. Jayden lifted his Fire Smasher high above his head, preparing for a super attack as his blade caught fire. He slammed the sword down, the flames rushed at the samurai, who didn't move, just braced themselves. Before they could submit to death, something jumped in the way and let out an agonized scream.
The samurai looked up to see…Troy! Megaforce Red was taking the full blow from the fire. The four samurai looked at him in shock, while the other Megaforce rangers called his name fearfully. After a while, the flames finally stopped, and Troy let out a final yelp of pain before sinking to the ground, and demorphing. His body was singed, and he bled from his mouth. The ranger let out a pained noise before falling unconscious. The other Megaforce rangers shouted his name, panicking.
The samurai ran up to him.
"Are you okay?" Emily asked desperately.
"Hey!" Kevin shouted, as the samurai tried to wake Troy up, they didn't notice Jayden's approach until his red boots were right in front of them. They looked up fearfully as he looked at them for a moment before raising his fire smasher again.
The samurai braced themselves for death, but a red blast knocked the red samurai out of the way. RoboKnight jumped at Jayden, slashing with his sword which Jayden deflected with his own.
"For now, it's my turn." Roboknight said. The other Megaforce rangers got up and ran to their fallen comrade.
"RoboKnight!" Noah gasped. Jayden readied his Fire Smasher, only to hit in the shoulder by flying discs sent by none other than the LightZord. The Gold Samurai entered the scene, running to his fellow samurai.
"Sorry I'm late." Antonio said. He turned to Jayden and his voice got a lot quieter. "It can't be…" The red samurai placed his Fire Smasher on his shoulder. "Jayden?" Jayden said nothing, only prepared to attack with his weapon again. RoboKnight and Antonio both used a card and symbol power respectively, and teleported out before Jayden's fire could hit them.
"So they fled?" Buredoran growled. "But just as well. Begin it!"
"I know." The Nighlok responded. He held his claw hand up and let out a roar. The clouds above him began to spin rapidly.

Back at the Command Center, Troy was resting, though he still had yet to wake up. The Megaforce were standing in silence. "Rangers." Gosei announced, getting their attention. "The Nighlok seems to be doing something to our sky." The Megaforce team exchanged alarmed glances. "Apparently, an enormous cloud of darkness is flowing onto the land. I fear the Nighlok are trying to Destroy the planet." The Megaforce rangers shook their heads, the mood solemn.
"Our attacks don't work on him!" Jake said angrily.
"For now," Gosei continued, "You need to find a way to increase your power." The rangers looked at him in confusion.
"Increase our power?" Noah inquired.
"That's right." Gosei confirmed. "You're not the only ones fighting."
"We're not the only ones…" Gia repeated softly.
"That's true," Jake responded, crossing his arms, "Can we really fight with those samurai rangers?"
Noah frowned. "For now, the enemy is the red samurai." He muttered.
"If we had to fight Troy…" Emma said softly.

"I'm sorry everyone." Antonio berated himself, looking downcast. The samurai were sitting on a row of steps a few blocks away from the Megaforce rangers. "If I had come sooner…"
"It's not your fault, Antonio." Mike assured him.
"Jayden isn't the only problem." Mia sighed. "There's also the Nighlok and that Buredoran guy." She crossed her arms. "I think there's a larger scheme. I'm sure of it."
"What should we do?" Emily asked. The rest of the team was silent. From behind Antonio, Emma appeared, carrying something.
"Ummm…" Emma started. "I brought these for you." She held out a tray of food.
"Thank you." Mia replied. Emily stood up.
"Umm…how is Troy?" She inquired.
"He's okay." Emma smiled. "More importantly, I thought you all must be going through a lot. So just ask if you need anything." Megaforce Pink ran off.
"Seeing Troy jump in the way like that, not giving up…They've got quite a guy on their side." Antonio pondered. "Right?"
"Back there…" Kevin spoke for the first time, "He was the only one who hadn't given up." The samurai gave looks that showed their agreement.
"If Jayden had been in the same situation, I'm sure he would have done the same thing." Emily said, nostalgic. Kevin clenched his fists.
"If he had been in our place…" He muttered.
"Yeah." Mike finished for him, "He'd be working to protect this world." The samurai stood up, new hope in their eyes and their hearts and made a decision.

It was morning, and the Megaforce were training their Gosei attacks. Gia loaded an attack, while Jake observed his own morpher.
"We have to find a way to increase our power?" He murmured. Gia finished her move by creating a large boulder in front of her as Emily and Mike appeared from the side. They approached the Megaforce, Emily smiling, Mike looking sheepish.
"What do you want?" Jake asked.
"The food you made was delicious. Thank you." Emily said. She looked at Mike pointedly and elbowed him.
Mike cleared his throat. "That's not why we're here." Emily giggled and Mike stared at her, confused.
"He's not very honest." She laughed.
"What!?" Mike demanded.
"I don't know what's going on," Gia said. "…but we're training, so please don't interrupt."
"Of course we're not going to interrupt." Mike responded, his voice lighter this time. He looked at Gia's boulder. "I see this technique all the time." He continued.
"All the time?" Jake asked, interested now.
"Yeah." Mike said. "Emily, show them." Said ranger nodded and pulled out her samuraizer. She traced a symbol and sent it as is formed another boulder right next to Gia's.
"Wow!" Gia exclaimed. "You can do that without Gosei's power?" Emily nodded.
"It's called Symbol Power." She explained.
"Mia has the power of wind, and Kevin the power of water." Mike added. "I have the power of the forest."
"I see." Jake said, impressed. He looked at his morpher, eyes lighting up with an idea. "A way to increase our power..." He repeated. "This is what Gosei was talking about."

A little while away, Noah and Emma were finishing their explanation with Kevin, Mia and Antonio.
"So…" Noah was saying, "If we combine our Gosei attacks with your Symbol Power…"
"That might be the key?" Mia finished for him.
"Maybe!" Emma said, excited.
"Speaking of which," Antonio joined in, "When RoboKnight and I used our power together, my Symbol Power was greater than ever!"
"Really?" Emma asked. "I'm sure this will work!"
"Now that we know that," Noah said, hope flowing again. He approached Kevin. "My power is water. Can you help me?"
"Yeah." Kevin agreed, though he still seemed somewhat bitter. Emma grabbed Mia's shoulder.
"Let's work together!" Emma shouted.

The training began with Jake and Emily together, and Mike and Gia. Emily and Jake combined their power to form a boulder, and smiled at first as their power seemed to be working, then they frowned as the premature boulder dissolved. Mike and Gia received the same result.
Mia and Emma's wind didn't go well either, and all Kevin and Noah could create was a tiny puddle of water. The pairs continued training, as Antonio watched over Troy inside.
After many tries, each pair looked at each other with determination, and said, "One more time." The eight rangers combined their powers one last time and were overjoyed when their powers combined perfectly. They gave a short cheer of success.

Over with the still unnamed, yet still largely shouldered Nighlok, the sky was even more disrupted. The Nighlok laughed. "It's complete." He snarled.
"The time has come." Buredoran said from the side of the Sanzu.
"Just what are you planning to do?" Octoroo asked.
"I am the one who will carry on Master Xandred's will." Buredoran explained. "My only goal is to make it so that Nighlok can enter the human world." He raised his hands in triumph. "I will make that happen now!" He thrust his hand towards the Sanzu sky, causing a hole to open. Buredoran then glowed with power as he spun around, causing a ridiculous amount of Sanzu River water to rise out of the water like a cobra, heading towards the hole.

As Troy opened his eyes, he was clearly still disoriented.
"Where am I?" He asked sitting up as he grasped his head.
"Thanks for waiting." A man dressed in gold he didn't recognize walked up to him, carrying a plate of fantastic smelling fish. "You've been asleep for a while." The golden guy continued.
"Thank you?" Troy responded, unsure as he took a bite of the fish. "This is great!" He exclaimed. The man smiled proudly.
"So you've woken up?" Kevin said as he walked in. "Will you fight with your team today? Of course we'll fight too." Kevin cast his eyes to the floor. "But…that doesn't necessarily mean we can save Jayden." Antonio nodded somberly.
"It'll be okay." Troy told them. "As long as you don't give up…It'll surely work out." Kevin chuckled as Antonio smiled.
"Seems like that's all you say." Kevin said.
"But," a new voice said, "That sentiment will surely give you strength." There stood Lauren.
"Lauren." Kevin said, smiling. "It's great to see you."
"Who's this?" Troy asked.
"Jayden's older sister." Antonio responded. Troy looked surprised.
"Shouldn't she be the red ranger?" He asked Kevin.
"It's a long story." The blue samurai answered.
"Troy." Lauren asked. "Will you come with me?"
"Yeah?" Troy replied, confused.

Outside of the city, Buredoran stood staring at the sky, waiting for his plan to come together. Behind the fiend, was an enormous lake full of Sanzu River water. With him were the large shouldered Nighlok and the still morphed Jayden.
"With this water…" Buredoran said, "I will flood the human world like Xandred could not! All that's left is for the red samurai to heat the water for it to flood, and the world will be mine."
"You're not a true Nighlok!" Octoroo was there. "And for another to use our water, that's unforgivable!" He sent a blast at Buredoran, but Mr. Anonymous Nighlok jumped in the way and deflected the blast.
"So you've gone to his side too?" Octoroo shouted. The Sanzu belongs to the Nighlok!" Octoroo slid through a crack and the large shouldered Nighlok began to chase him.
"Leave him." Buredoran commanded. "There's nothing he can do." He turned to Jayden. "Do it!" The red samurai raised his Fire Smasher and began to shoot an endless chain of fire into the lake of Sanzu water. The water began to boil, and a huge bolt of red light rose from it. The other rangers from far away noticed.
"What is that light?" Emma asked.
"I don't know," Noah answered, "but Buredoran is definitely behind it."
"What's he going to do?" Emily asked.
"We have to stop him!" Mike exclaimed, and the nine rangers ran towards the light, morphing as they went.
When they were almost there, a burst of fire appeared nearby and out came Jayden. The Megaforce readied themselves, but the samurai were reluctant.
The samurai each whispered their leader's name in turn. The red samurai simply rested his blade on his shoulder.
"Let's go!" Jake shouted. The Megaforce pulled out their weapons, as Jayden began to rush towards them all.
"We have to do this!" Noah shouted as he and Emma fired their weapons while Jake and Gia charged. Jayden deflected the blasts, before slashing the yellow and black rangers in the chests, and then the pink and blue. The samurai did not join in the fight.
Finally, Kevin drew his spin sword. "Everyone, let's do this!" He shouted. "For Jayden!"
"Yeah!" Mike and Antonio said together. As the samurai rushed towards their leader, said ranger was blocking all four weapons of the Megaforce with his own sword. As he saw a new enemy approaching, a cloud of black surrounded him, and he knocked the Megaforce down and charged at his team.
"Using the evil power, he slashed through them faster than they could see multiple times, stopping as they fell down. Wasting no time, he pulled out his Fire Smasher in Cannon Blast Mode using the Tiger Disc and aimed his fire disc at them. Firing, the blast hit the nine rangers straight on.
They fell down, dazed.
"He's too strong!" Gia gasped.
"What'll we do?" Emma asked.
"All we can do is a suicide attack." Jake replied. The samurai looked at him, reluctant.
"Whoever survives can move on ahead." Jake said as he rose to his feet. Jayden walked towards them. "Let's go!"
"Stop it!" Kevin grabbed his hand.
"Is there any other way?" Jake demanded.
Emma stepped up, aiming her weapon at the red samurai too. "I know you don't want to lose him." She said.
"That's not it!" Kevin exclaimed. "That guy…Troy will definitely come. So we all must somehow survive until then. As long as we don't give up…it'll definitely work out!" He finished, quoting Megaforce Red.
"You're right." Noah conceded.
"Yeah." Emma agreed.
"Right." Jake said. Gia nodded.
They stood again. "Let's go!" Kevin shouted. They rushed at Jayden as the red ranger pulled out his Bullzooka, shooting and slashing at the same time. The rangers couldn't land a single blow, but Jayden was invincible. He knocked them all back with ease and jumped a distance away before bombarding the rangers with Bullzooka bullets.
After many hits and screams, he finally ceased fire, and calmly approached his falling opponents. As they fell to the ground, Jayden's boots stopped next to Emma's head. She looked up at him as he aimed the gun directly at her head.
"Emma!" Gia shouted.
"Don't!" Mike pleaded.
"Jayden!" Kevin shouted desperately. Before he could fire, a bullet hit his left shoulder, causing him to stumble to the side. The rangers looked to see Troy making a flying kick and knocking the Bullzooka out of the red samurai's hand.
"Troy!" Emma exclaimed.
"You sure kept us waiting." Mike grumbled.
"Everyone." Troy said. "Please leave the rest to me." He looked at Jayden. "As long as you don't give up…It'll surely work out." He raised his Dragon Sword as Jayden raised his spin sword.
The two reds clashed, and for the first few moments, neither could land a blow on the other. Even when Jayden's sword spewed fire, Troy was able to dodge. He flew at Jayden, preparing for a large slash, but Jayden blocked it, and slashed Troy in the chest, flames leaping. Troy fell backwards, smoking.
"Not yet…" He said as he began to stand. "I won't give up!" He got to his feet and pointed his sword at Jayden.
"Troy really hates to give up…" Kevin admitted from the side. The rangers had almost gotten up.
"Just like Jayden." Emily added.
"Yeah." Kevin nodded.
"You mean us too, right?" Mike interrupted.
Jayden slashed Troy's chest twice, and Troy stumbled, but refused to stop fighting. Rushing the red samurai again, Troy received four more slashes, the last one sending him sprawling. Jayden got out his Fire Smasher again, and prepared to attack. Troy struggled, but couldn't get up.
Jayden sent a wave of flames at him, and he covered his face. Out of nowhere, five multi colored symbols came in front of Troy and sent the fire back at Jayden, who fell backwards, not anticipating that move.
Troy looked over to the samurai in astonishment who all had their samuraizers out. "Repaying the debt from earlier." Kevin explained. Troy nodded gratefully.
"Thanks." He said. Pulling out a card with a samurai symbol on it, Troy had a short explanatory flashback showing when Lauren used her power to infuse a card with Symbol Power.
Troy inserted the card into his morpher, and was surrounded by a tornado shaped column of flames as he absorbed its energy. He leapt up into the air and came flying down, sword out. As he flew towards the red samurai, Jayden held up his Fire Smasher to deflect the attack.
Troy hit the huge sword straight on, and Jayden struggled to keep his footing, taking two steps back before Troy let out a battle cry and used a huge amount of energy, breaking Jayden's defenses and sending the red samurai flying backwards, his black cape disappearing, followed shortly by his suit. Jayden landed on the ground, skidding for many meters before coming to a stop.
Troy stood up from his position on his knees, clearly that attack had taken a lot of power. Jayden didn't move.
The samurai shouted their leader's name one by one and rushed to his side. Repeating his name as they crouched next to him and held him up, they were overjoyed as Jayden's eye lids twitched, and slowly opened.
"Jayden!" Emily whispered happily. The samurai all wore smiles. Jayden wearily observed his surroundings. He looked at his teammates one at a time.
"I'm sorry." He whispered, voice raspy from the fight. The team gave him exaggerated looks. Surely he knew it wasn't his fault?
"You sure gave us a hard time." Mike joked.
"Thank goodness." Emily sighed, eyes watering.
"Don't cry." Mia smiled, gripping Emily's shoulder.
The Megaforce rangers congratulated their leader and smiled triumphantly. "Troy…" Emma sighed in relief. The Megaforce rangers jogged over to the samurai.
Jayden noticed them coming, and started to stand, Kevin helping him. Leaning on Kevin's shoulder, Jayden met Troy's eyes. He let go of Kevin and shakily stepped forward.
"I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused," Jayden said, "Troy." Troy smiled at him.
"There's no need for you to say that." He sighed. "It wasn't your fault. You couldn't help what you were doing." Jayden nodded gratefully.
Troy pointed towards the light from the Sanzu water. "More importantly," He said. "It's not over yet!"
Wooh! That's another twenty minutes! Only a third of the movie left! (Even if around half of it is credits and singing.) Part 3 of 3 will come soon for the exciting conclusion!
