The Raidengers and Shadowgers just stared at Raidenshadow with disbelief. Darius and Raidenshadow just readied themselves to fight as did the hybrid.
"So, which one of these guys do we go for first?",Yellowshadow asked while keeping her tonfa readied and while worriedly looking all around. Sameraiden pointed his Tsunami Blaster at the three and said,"I don't know. All of them are equal amounts of scary."
Corvus grinned then said,"Don't worry, I shall choose who you all will fight." before he snapped his fingers. The hybrid howled then charged towards the teams, tackling Sameraiden, Yellowshadow, Greenshadow and Magentashadow into a portal which appeared behind them all.
Darius charged at Okamiraiden and Waniraiden as a portal appeared under them, with them falling in. Darius then jumped into the portal as it closed. This left Takaraiden and Redshadow in front of Raidenshadow.
Raidenshadow began walking towards the two, which made them step back slightly. Takaraiden then shook his head before charging at Raidenshadow, with Redshadow hesitantly following suit. Raidenshadow evaded the slashes from both red rangers then he kicked them in the back. Raidenshadow ducked a slash from Redshadow's rocket sabre then jumped over a slash from Takaraiden's storm bow. He then punched Redshadow before roundhouse kicking Takaraiden. Raidenshadow then got to one knee, planted his fist into both red rangers stomachs, then pushed both of them back with sending energy into them. Redshadow and Takaraiden flew back many feet then tumbled on the ground then Takaraiden said,"Okay, this guy is very powerful."
"Shut up and fight.",Redshadow said. The two reds got up and readied their weapons.
In the hallways of the college, Sameraiden, Yellowshadow, Greenshadow and Magentashadow ran down the hallways together with Sameraiden and Magentashadow firing at the hybrid chasing them. The hybrid snarled then picked up it's pace, eventually hitting all four rangers across the hallway. Sameraiden and Yellowshadow landed next to each other while Magentashadow crashed into a trophy case and Greenshadow crashed into a door.
The hybrid snarled as the rangers got to their feet. Sameraiden began firing at the hybrid along with Magentashadow and Greenshadow. The hybrid stumbled back from the blast then was hit in the face many times by Yellowshadow. The hybrid then slammed it's horns into Yellowshadow, hitting her back many feet. Sameraiden caught Yellowshadow then the two looked at the hybrid as it fired gold and purple energy bursts from its mouth, hitting the ground near Magentashadow and Greenshadow.
Sameraiden and Yellowshadow stood up then charged at the hybrid along with Magentashadow and Greenshadow.
On a roof of the college, Okamiraiden and Waniraiden were fighting Darius. Darius blocked a kick from both Raidengers then he ducked under a punch and punched Waniraiden in the face. Okamiraiden punched Darius in the back then was punched in the gut before getting kneed in the chest. Darius then had grey electricity cover his arm before he punched Okamiraiden in the chest, causing the blue raidenger to fly back a few feet.
Waniraiden kneed Darius in the back then dodged an elbow before punching him several times in the chest. Darius chuckled then he punched Waniraiden in the face before continuously kneeing her in the stomach then throwing her to the ground. Darius was going to stop on Waniraiden's helmet but Okamiraiden dropkicked him in the chest, making him stumble back.
Okamiraiden punched and kicked Darius many times then Darius shocked him with grey electricity before punching him with both of his fist. Okamiraiden tumbled back towards Waniraiden then got to his feet along with her. Darius scowled at the two then motioned for them to charge at him. The two Raidengers summoned their weapons and charged at the man.
Back with both red rangers, Raidenshadow punched Redshadow then vaulted over her to kick Takaraiden before he dodged a stab from Redshadow's sword. He then kicked the red shadowger in the stomach before using her as a shield when Takaraiden shot an energy arrow at him. Raidenshadow then summoned a black and silver pistol that had a curved hilt and shot Takaraiden in the chest. Redshadow tried to elbow Raidenshadow but he effortlessly caught the attack, spun her around and shot her in the stomach four times.
Redshadow stumbled back with Takaraiden catching her. The two looked at Raidenshadow and Takaraiden said,"What is it with this guy?"
"I don't know but he's obviously a skilled fighter by how he's kicking our asses.", Redshadow said while standing up. Raidenshadow's gun disappeared and he summoned white and gold scythes which he held in a backhand style. (Authors note: the hilt of the scythes were white and gold while the blades we're gold.)
Redshadow and Takaraiden readied their blades as Takaraiden suggested,"maybe we should hit him at the same time, like with the first hybrid."
Redshadow thought about it then said,"Worth a shot." before she flew towards Raidenshadow and Takaraiden sped towards him.
Once in range, the two slashed at Raidenshadow, who blocked both attacks with his scythes. The two gasped then Raidenshadow jumped and spun around in the air, causing both reds to go flying back. Raidenshadow then summoned his gun and shot both reds in the chest.
With Sameraiden and the rest of the Shadowgers, Magentashadow shot at the hybrid then Greenshadow sped by and picked her up, dodging a bite from the beast. Yellowshadow jumped on the best back and relentlessly beat it with her tonfa as Sameraiden used he super speed to circle around it while shooting it. The two then backed off. The hybrid howled then searched for the four rangers.
Inside a classroom, the four hid behind a door and Magentashadow said,"We keep attacking that thing but nothing is happening."
"Well it is a hybrid so we need to hit it all at once.",Sameraiden said.
"We've been doing that and it's not letting up anytime soon.",Greenshadow said. Sameraiden sighed then he thought about it,"Wait a sec, I'm the only Raidenger here."
"Yeah, why does that matter?",Yellowshadow questioned.
"Well when we defeated the first hybrid, it was both teams together while right now I'm the only Raidenger. So I think it's getting too much of the Shadowger attacks so only one part of it is feeling anything.",Sameraiden explained. The Shadowgers nodded then Magentashadow said,"We didn't think of that. Nice job E."
"So how can we defeat it then?",Greenshadow asked. Sameraiden thought about it for a second then said,"Two of you guys need to distract it while me and the other need to attack it."
"Me and Michelle can distract it.",Yellowshadow said. The four rangers nodded then the hybrid burst through the wall snarling. Magentashadow and Sameraiden aimed their guns at the beast.
Back with Okamiraiden and Waniraiden, the two Raidengers were punched by Darius then Darius kicked Okamiraiden in the side. Okamiraiden tumbled on the ground then had his chest stomped on twice. Darius chuckled and said,"Doesn't this bring back memories lil D? Of how I'd whip your ass all over our school?"
Okamiraiden put his hands on Darius' boot and tried to get it off of him but Darius put his strength into it, with his boot stomping on Okamiraiden's chest again. Darius chuckled then said,"Why you still trying Lil D? You know I'm stronger than you, always have been."
"Oh really? Then why did I beat your ass before you got locked away?",Okamiraiden said with some pride. Darius became enraged and was about to smash Okamiraiden's head when Waniraiden slashed him across the chest. Darius grunted then dodged a few slashes from Waniraiden before catching her sword and throwing it to the side. Darius then covered his fist in dark grey electricity before punching Waniraiden, knocking the wind out of her. Darius then began ruthlessly beating Waniraiden before kicking her as hard as he could in the chest.
Waniraiden flew back, reverting into Vicky, and landed next to Okamiraiden. Okamiraiden went to Vicky's side and worriedly said,"V! V, you okay?"
"Not really. That guy can pack a punch.",Vicky horsley said, coughing up some blood after she said it. Okamiraiden became angered and had blue electricity cover his body before he charged at Darius while shouting in anger. Darius smiled evilly and had dark grey electricity cover his body as he prepared himself.
Currently, Yellowshadow ran away from the hybrid along with Greenshadow. The hybrid chased after them. The two looked back then Yellowshadow said,"Are they ready yet?"
"I hope so. I'm getting tired of running from this thing.",Greenshadow said. The two Shadowgers turned a corner with hybrid following.
Magentashadow and Sameraiden aimed their guns at the hybrid from behind and they activated their finishers, with Sameraiden sending his shark shaped energy burst towards the hybrid and Magentashadow sending a huge magenta and black energy burst towards the hybrid.
"LIGHTNING SHOT! ABYSS BALLISTA!",both weapons shouted as the burst hit the hybrid, making it explode. The four rangers panted for air and Sameraiden said,"We did it."
"Let's not get too comfortable. The others are probably dealing with Darius and Raidenshadow.",Greenshadow said.
Redshadow was kicked in the face then blocked a slash from Raidenshadow, who then proceeded to block a slash from Takaraiden. The monochromatic ranger dropped to the ground to avoid getting punched in the face then he flipped to his feet and slashed both red rangers three times. Raidenshadow then combined both of his scythes, which made into a bigger scythe that had a bladed bottom.
Redshadow charged at Raidenshadow and tried to stab him but she was dodged and scissor kicked in the back, making her crash into the ground.
Takaraiden sped by Raidenshadow, trying to slash him but the monochromatic ranger blocked it. Raidenshadow then used the same super speed as the Raidenger, with his lightning being black and white, and used the hilt of his scythe to bash Takaraiden in the stomach.
Takaraiden tumbled on the ground then jumped to his feet and he blocked a slash from Raidenshadow. Raidenshadow relentlessly slashed at Takaraiden, who blocked while getting pushed back. Raidenshadow then stopped slashing and kicked Takaraiden across the face before dodging a slash from Redshadow. Raidenshadow caught Redshadow by the leg and slammed her into Takaraiden.
The two reds tumbled on the ground then struggled to get to their feet. Raidenshadow placed his scythe in the ground then said,"Both of you should stop trying. I'd actually like to not hurt either of you."
"You're not doing a good job of showing it.",Takaraiden said in pain. Redshadow looked at Takaraiden then at Raidenshadow before saying,"I'm not gonna give up, so you might as well come at me with all you've got."
Raidenshadow sighed and readied his scythes once more. Takaraiden and Redshadow prepared to charge.
At the Raidengers base, Nadir turned on her heel and was about to leave when Zenith said,"Nadir don't leave."
"Father they're not ready to take on Kei. You and I have been watching him beat them without much effort.",Nadir said while facing him.
"Yes we have and it pains me to see it. However they must learn this lesson and you yourself cannot go out there with Kei being their opponent.",Zenith said.
"Why not?!",Nadir said while beginning to cry.
"Because you're still in love with him, and love no matter how great should never be on the battlefield.",Zenith said. Nadir clenched her hand into a fist and gritted her teeth.
Currently, Okamiraiden and Darius we're still fighting. Darius punched Okamiraiden seven times then was kicked in the stomach. Okamiraiden punched Darius twice then was slammed on the ground. Darius was going to punch Okamiraiden once more but the blue Raidenger had blue energy cover his gauntlet before he uppercutted Darius in the stomach.
"LIGHTNING BITE!",The Hurricane Knuckle said as Okamiraiden did the attack. Darius stumbled back a bit and said,"My turn."
Darius had dark grey electricity surged from his fist and he punched Okamiraiden across the face, causing the blue raidenger to stumble back. Darius delivered another powerful punch to Okamiraiden's back before lifting him above his head. Darius then slammed Okamiraiden's spine down on his knee, causing Okamiraiden to scream in agony as well as revert into Deino.
Darius threw Deino to the ground then said,"Ha ha ha ha. What was that about being stronger than me? Huh?"
Deino looked at Darius and he was kicked across the face. Deino spit up the blood then said,"Fuck off Darius."
"Poor choice of words Lil D.",Darius said with a smirk, preparing another powerful attack. Suddenly, Darius had the side of his body cut open and he grabbed it in pain. He looked back to see Vicky holding her Tornado Sword. Darius gritted his teeth then he jumped off the roof and ran away still holding his side.
Vicky ran over to Deino and dropped to her knees. She put his upper body on her lap and he tried not to scream in agony. Deino looked at Vicky and said,"Thanks V."
"Anytime dreadhead.",Vicky said with a smile. The two then looked at the Tornado Sword and where Darius jumped to see black blood.
Back with Redshadow and Takaraiden, the two reds slashed at Raidenshadow but they were evaded. Raidenshadow kicked Takaraiden in the stomach then slashed Redshadow twice. Raidenshadow then proceeded to sweep his leg under Takaraiden's, tripping the red raidenger then he slashed Redshadow again.
Raidenshadow dodged Redshadow's sword as she thrusted it at him and caught the blade in-between the blades of his scythes. Raidenshadow disarmed Redshadow then he put his scythes on her shoulders and said,"Carga de rayo."
Raidenshadow then slashed a white X into Redshadow's chest and she stumbled back, reverting into Casey. Casey fell to her knees then to her front, unable to get up due to pain.
Raidenshadow looked at Casey and said,"Hmm?"
Takaraiden then shouted as he charged at Raidenshadow. Raidenshadow made his scythes disappear and he dodged Takaraiden. Takaraiden spun around and began slashing at Raidenshadow wildly.
Raidenshadow dodged each slash and punched Takaraiden in multiple points on his body. Takaraiden was eventually frozen in place and Raidenshadow put his fingertips on Takaraiden's chest, where his heart is, and said,"In'ei chūnyū"
Raidenshadow then use a one inch punch on Takaraiden's chest, with a huge pillar of black energy coming out of Takaraiden's back. Takaraiden stumbled back, reverting to Paul B with a tattered shirt and injuries, and was panting for air. Paul B then took two steps towards Raidenshadow and tried to punch him, but it was dodged and Paul B fell to his back unconscious.
Raidenshadow looked at both Casey and Paul B then he sighed while reverting into Kei. Kei then began walking away when he felt an aura familiar to his and he turned around to see Nadir standing there. Nadir touched her necklace and said,"Kei, why did you do this?"
Casey gained a confused expression and in her mind said,"Nadir knows this guy?"
Kei only stared at Nadir then Corvus appeared beside Kei and said,"Oh well look who's here. The great Nadir. Daughter of the mighty Zenith."
Nadir ignored Corvus as she and Kei. Suddenly, Greenshadow, Yellowshadow, Magentashadow and Sameraiden ran up to the battle and Sameraiden and Magentashadow said,"Paul!" with worry as they ran to their unconscious brother.
Nadir looked at the two as well as Yellowshadow and Greenshadow as they went to Casey's side. She then looked up to see Corvus and Kei had left. Vicky and Deino, with Vicky having Deino's arm over her shoulder and dragging him along. Deino became worried when he saw Paul B and tried to run to his brother but he shouted in agony and Vicky tried her best to hold him up.
Nadir looked at the rangers and sighed before looking back at where Kei and Corvus stood.
