The crystal of light shone brightly. It was powered up to the point of blinding everyone. But even still, it felt not powerful enough. Even with the power of four light users powering it up every day. They had just finished, when Tommy had walked in. Good thing to, as he caught his daughter from collapsing.
Tommy: You sure that what you girls are doing isn't enough?
Lauren: We're sure dad.
Tommy: Well you four take it easy for the rest of the day.
Lauren: We will, but aren't you supposed to be at the hospital now?
Tommy: Yeah, but I came back to pack for a few overnight things. Your mom's labor is gonna take a while this time.
Lauren: You take it easy as well dad.
Tommy nodded, and left, as the four girls sat down. Lauren sighed. The other girls could sense her frustration building up.
Rita: What's wrong?
Lauren: It's...nothing.
Reina: Don't lie Lo. Something is bothering you. We don't need to be light mages or even dragons to see it.
Heather: They're right. Usually you're confident. But lately, you've been shaken to your core.
Lauren: I know. It's just...*sigh*...I just wish there was a way to the spirit world, so that I could contact Tiamat.
Rita: Why would you need to contact grandma?
Lauren: I get the feeling she's alot more powerful then she lets on. She was able to keep your evil grandfather in check, strengthened Cadmus's seal, and was well respected. She has to know something that could help us, especially with her staff.
Heather: That's right...you have it with you these days.
The girls simply chatted away for about an hour, letting their strength return. Suddenly, the alarms went off, and Lauren pulled up the screen, to show that Abbaddon was attacking. On another monitor, A gold version of a monster the first team faced, the Cyclopsis, was there, slashing up buildings
Lauren: Damn. Alright, looks like we'll be doing some battling. Heather. Take the other rangers, and take on the Cyclopsis. Girls, you're with me.
Rita: Wait...why we fighting. We're not rangers.
Lauren: But you are dragosyn. And a very powerful team. Believe me, I know first hand experience. And since you were around when Abbaddon was captured...I hope...you two would know how to break the spell, or whatever's controlling him.
The girls nodded, suddenly, Ragnarok began to speak over the communication line. Lauren opened the line, as Ragnarok's eye appeared on one of the screens.
Ragnarok: I don't think we'll be able to use our best combos this time. Dad's still recovering.
Reina: Your...dad?
Ragnarok: Sorry...forgot that you didn't know. Some of the dragons are related. In fact, Gogyou, Redi-Kaze, and Inferuno, are all siblings. In fact, they're my older siblings. Hanzo is also Redi-Kaze's son. As for our father, it's lord Bahamut. Unfortunately, he took a big hit against Venjix, but has managed to hide it. So the Omega Dragonzord, nor the Trinity Megazord, is a no go.
Lauren: Work with the others, along with Nikita. In fact, have her become the legs, so that the Dragonmax can have a bit of extra power.
Ragnarok: Alright. Ramez said he'll meet up with you against Abbaddon. I'll join the others.
Lauren nodded, she morphed, and led the twins out of there. The transformed into their dragon forms, as Lauren Summoned Zero.
With Cyclopsis, the other rangers had summoned their zord. Gogyou growled, and began to fire alot of finger missles at Cyclopsis, only for Cyclopsis to walk through it, and with one of it's wrist blades, slice down Gogyou.
Jake: Gogyou, you okay?
Gogyou: I'll be fine Jake. He's definitely more powerful then he was last time. Last time, my attack at least stumbled him.
Ryder: This during the time you weren't at full power, and Tommy's zord?
Gogyou: Yeah.
Ikazuchi then charged up, and tackled Cyclopsis, only to be pushed back. Redi-Kaze did her wing blade attack, which did some decent damage. Suddenly, two blasts came down, and struck Cyclopsis hard. Nikita had joined the fight. But after that, Cyclopsis got kicked by Ragnarok.
Ragnarok: This one's playing for keeps. I don't know if you'll get another chance. Merge together while I distract him.
Tyrell: We'll take your word for it.
Rangers: Dragonmax Megazord Super formation!
The Dragonmax megazord quickly assembled itself. The only differences were, that Nikita's legs were now the legs, while Shindou and Ikazuchi were now the feet. They began to open fire with the gattling cannons, which did some good damage to the Cyclopsis. Ragnarok then tried to slice Cyclopsis, but was parried, and was double slahsed, and kicked, which floored Ragnarok. By now, Nikita's body was now being used as a cannon.
Nikita: Thank you Ragnarok. Leave now. We'll finish this.
Ragnarok did just that, as Cyclopsis turned it's attention to the Super Dragonmax Megazord. All the rangers gathered their energy into it, and all weapons were prepared.
Rangers: Mega Dragon Rage FIRE!
All the weapons fired on Cyclopsis which successfully destroyed the monster with no problem. Carl sighed when it was done.
Carl: That guy was tough at first, but with this super combo, well that was really easy. Almost sad.
Karmyn: Imagine if it was the Omega Dragonzord, then he wouldn't have been able to last even a second.
With Lauren and the twins...
The twins had formed on single light dragon, that was about half the size of Zero. Zero had already transformed, and was on the attack, using his sword to try to hit Abbaddon. But Abbaddon blocked him, and hit Zero in the gut, followed, by showering Zero and the light dragon with powerful green orbs.
Twins: Damn. This is powerful. This really what you have to put up with everyday, dad?
Zero: Unfortunately. I have to ask. Is he being controlled?
Abbaddon blasted them all again, and even kicked Zero in the face. This caused Zero to stumble down. But the Twin light dragon rammed into Abbaddon, before blasting him with a shining light blast.
Twins: He is, but that shouldn't be the focus. Hopefully it will go away if we destroy him.
Lauren: We could get answers from him, but we need him alive for that.
Twins: You've already destroyed him once. He's the king of the dead, remember?
Lauren: Right. Sorry.
Abbaddon got back up, and began his assault again, when suddenly, a massive golden flame rammed right into him, flooring Abbaddon. The twin dragon shot a healing ray at Zero, who recovered from all the damage, and looked at Ramez, who had reformed into his zord form.
Zero: Ramez. Thanks.
Ramez: Not a problem. I couldn't let Nikita have all the fun, plus I do keep my word. But quickly. Remember that formation we discussed. Now might be a good chance to unleash it.
Zero: You're right. With our combined strength, We can defeat Abbaddon. Strange though. All the dragons had to combine into one to beat him before. Must not have fully recovered. But it's time to unleash the Magna-Dragonzord.
Lauren: A new formation?
Twins: Do it dad!
With that, Ramez split apart. It's feather crowd attached to Zero's head, while the rest of Ramez's head went onto the chest, which merged with Zero's. The claws and arms attached on, as did the legs. With the two now combined, the new zord let off a mighty roar.
Lauren: Alright guys. But why don't we give This new formation, the Magna-Dragonzord, some juice. Ultimate Divine Armour Activate!
Lauren turned into her golden armour, and the Magna-Dragonzord glowed brightly. As Abbaddon got back up, he began to blast away again. But The Magna-Dragonzord rushed right through it, with it's claws both in massive golden flames.
Magna-Dragonzord: Time to finish you off. Ultimate Crush Claw!
Once at close range, the Magna-Dragonzord did a powerful X Slash, which caused Abbaddon to stumble back, while many sparks flew off of him. Abbaddon, stumbled, and fell to the ground, exploding.
Lauren: Hey guys. Lauren here. We're done on our end. What about you guys?
Hanzo: All taken care of.
Lauren: Roger that. Board the Ragnarok. I think we should have a meeting.
Five minutes later, all the rangers (with their helmets off), plus the twins (obviously split back to normal), were on the Ragnarok. The dragons were all patched in on various hologram monitors. Abbaddon was there, on a table, tied down. He was out cold. Lauren did a scan, before sending an electric pulse through his system. He began to wake up
Lauren: That should have done it.
Abbaddon: Where...am I?
Abbaddon tried to move. He saw the rangers, and sighed. He summoned his staff over, which got the rangers on the defensive. He got his bearings, and chuckled.
Abbaddon: Relax rangers. I have no grudge against you. In fact, I should be thanking you from freeing me from that witch's control.
Tyrell: Sucks, doesn't it.
Abbaddon: You have no idea.
Tyrell: I do. More then you know. But still...we have some questions.
Abbaddon: And I'll be more then happy to answer. That is, only if you get these restraints off. I need to be relaxed.
Lauren sighed, and personally undid them herself. Abbaddon got up, and stretched. He grabbed his staff, and sat back down.
Abbaddon: Rita...Reina. Thank you. I sensed the good in you, and am glad you found your way there.
Rita: Don't mention it.
Lauren: The main question for you, that we have is, how many monsters and villains did Azalia force you to resurrect?
Abbaddon: Alot. And probably would have had more, if I wasn't so damaged from the last encounter, so thank you for that. I could only do two a day. But the ones she wanted alive...she made it all count. Evil Divatox, Scorpious, Dark Spectre and his son Maligore. Trakeena, Darkonda, Master Org, Morticon, Lothor's Generals, and Master Vile. Those who she had brought back. She wanted one more. But that one isn't dead. Still out somewhere. She is using those revived to scour the universe, just to look for him. Essentially, she's reforming her original alliance, along with some other additions. She's planning on striking soon. As soon as she finds the last one, she'll begin her final assault. And Rangers...even though it will bring a massive amount of souls to my domain, a universal massacre is not something I want. I will help you. You have my word. Though I don't know how much help I will be.
Ryder: It's the thought that counts. Right now, we're in the middle of constructing a powerful light bomb that will hopefully debilitate Azalia's dark powers, long enough for use to end her for good.
Abbaddon: Coming prepared. I like it. As many generals and other army men who I've met, they all say the same thing. Come prepared for battle, don't prepare when it starts. You are prepared when it starts. No way around it. Or something like that. All I know is, they made it sound cool.
Carl: I'll bet. But...who's this last member of her alliance.
Abbaddon: His name, is Ivan Ooze. A powerful shapeshifting dark wizard, who leaves an evil, and mind controlling ooze wherever he goes. Zordon had some trouble with him before. In fact, I believe a ranger team in the past once managed to deal with him. Sealed him away, they did, for they weren't as powerful as you are.
Bahamut: Thank you Abbaddon. We are indeed better prepared for what's to come.
Abbaddon: I better as well. Sorry for the grief I've caused you this time. But I must return home, or I won't be prepared to help.
Abbaddon lifted his staff, and struck it on the floor, which caused him to burst into a green fire, and vanish to the underworld. Lauren then looked up, with a smile on her face.
Lauren: I don't know about you guys, but I need to get out of here. My sibling is about to be born. Good thing that Hailey agreed to look after Arianna while mom and dad are in the hospital.
Karmyn: Call us when your sibling is born.
Lauren: Got it. Oh, and Ragnarok...alert me if any attacks happen. I still gotta protect the city.
The other rangers all nodded, as they all teleported away, hoping to have one day for themselves each. However, what they didn't know, was 2 pairs of slitted eyes looked up from a crack in the ground, right near where Hailey lived (outside her cafe) and chuckled. A new monster was about to emerge, but what was the intention behind those evil eyes...besides pure destruction and anarchy, or course?
A/N: Another chapter, and another cliffhanger, just for you guys. What will happen next? You'll have to find out lol. But maybe now the rangers will stand a chance in defeating Azalia, once and for all, with the lord of the dead now on their side.
