Chapter - Secrets of Neo orange - A destined duty!
At the Rock Quarry, the teens spot the strange half dragon half griffin in a Ruby and Sunstone color as Eliastro and his Gobots are surrounding her. "What is that thing"? Twyla asks them. "Yeah it looks like a beast". Eldon said to them.
Daniel looks at them as he has a gut feeling about it. "That thing is Kiki guys, I just know it". Daniel said to them.
The group is in shock about it. "Wait that thing is Kiki? Did Eliastro put her under his mind control"? Roxy asks hem.
Mel looks at them as she is getting a closer look. "I do not detect any malice control on her within her heart. She is there just in the control of the dragon and the griffin at the time being". Mel said to them.
Verna's eyes changes to bright rainbow like she is receiving a telepathic message. 'Listen to us, we are on your side. The one called Eliastro has injured her badly. As your friends summons us, she willingly let us take over her body for the time being. The Phoenix has to prove leadership. the Mermaid has to prove loyalty. Garuda has to prove reliability and stealth qualities to us. Once they proven it to us, your friend will be freed and our powers will go to them as the prophecy is foretold'. The Dragon and the Griffin telepathically said to Verna.
Blaise looks at Verna as he is getting used to the eye thing. "Ok mind telling me what was that"? Blaise asks Verna.
Verna looks at Blaise as she rolls her eyes. "They told me that they have to use her body for the time being because she is injured. They said that the Phoenix, the Mermaid, and the Garuda has to prove their qualities leadership, loyalty, reliability and stealth". Verna said to them.
The teens look at Verna as they turn to Leon, James, and Tabitha. "We better go stop Eliastro. Kiki maybe controlled by a dragon and a griffin at the time being, but she can not get hurt more than she already is". Ash said to them. The teens nod in agreement as they head towards them.
Eliastro looks at it as it is furious. "Just surrender yourself Guardian, the power is meant to be mine. Plus I have Gobots and Rampigs surrounding you. You cannot escape from me". Eliastro said to Kiki.
All the sudden, Eliastro gets hit by the blasters. He frowns as turns to see the teens ready to fight. "WHAT HOW DID YOU FIND ME HERE"? Eliastro asks them as he is clearly annoyed.
Ash looks at them as his team has their morphor out. "Lesson one, we have friends in high places in the ranger community". Ash said to Eliastro.
Leon looks at them as his team has their morphors out. "Lesson two, we have learned the truth about her and the power that she was destined to have to be passed on to the right hands". Leon said to Eliastro.
"Defender Beast Rise to Defend", Leon's team said in unison as they morph into ranger form.
"Neo Defenders Execute the Power", Ash and his team said in unison as they morph into ranger form.
Eliastro frowns as the fight is about to get started. "Rampigs, Gobots destroy all of them". Eliastro said to the foot soldiers.
The foot soldiers charges in at the rangers. The teens grab out their weapons as they are ready to fight. "Let's do this guys", Leon said to them. Both teams charge in as they get into mixed groups as they are fighting the enemy.
In group one, it is Mel, Verna, Daniel, Mari, Tabitha, Blaise, Blake, and Eldon as they are fighting a swarm of Rampigs and Gobots. "I am ready for some payback and roast these things on fire". Verna said to them as she fires her flames on them.
Blake nods as she looks at Verna. "I like the way you think Verna". Blake said to Verna. She gives a double kick at a Rampig as it goes down.
Blaise smirks underneath his helmet as he likes it. "I have to agree and your power fits you to the tee". Blaise said to Verna.
Mel, Daniel, and Eldon are together in a small group. Eldon notices how well Mel and Daniel works together. "Twin Sis, an ugly clown face to your right". Daniel said to Mel as he notices it coming at her.
"Got it twin bro, there is an ugly clown face heading towards Eldon". Mel said to Daniel. She fires her Neo Defender blaster at it.
Eldon notices the Rampigs coming towards him as he gets it with his power. "So the two of you are twins and on the same team". Eldon said to Daniel and Mel.
Daniel nods as he looks at Eldon. "Yep when siblings are on the same team, we never ditch or abandon each other in signs of trouble despite being separated as babies. We found a way to be reunited with family". Daniel said to Eldon.
Mel nods as she looks at Eldon. She kicks at a Gobot as well. "That's right, we never leave each other hanging when we need it most". Mel said to Eldon.
Tabitha notices how well they are working together. She listen to what Mel and Daniel said as she gets to think about it. "Listen I never realized that you are a ranger Mari". Tabitha said to Mari. She kicks at a Rampig.
Mari nods as she looks at her as she punches at a Gobot. "In deed I am Tabitha. Loyalty is something never to be wavered for your own desires. Your trust and loyalty to others is earned with respect and time". Mari said to Tabitha. Tabitha nods as she is starting to understand.
In group two, it is Aiden, Twyla, Harry, Will, Liz, Roxy, and James as they are fighting Rampigs and Gobots. "These things really don't want to quit do they". Aiden said to them.
Twyla shakes her head to Aiden as she looks at him. "No Eliastro is still trying to get to Kiki". Twyla said to them.
They turn as they see Ash and Leon fighting Eliastro as they are trying to defend Kiki. The dragon/griffin is firing its beams at the Rampigs and Gobots from it.
Will frowns as he notices Daniel and Blaise running towards Kiki to fight off the Rampigs and Gobots from her. "Yeah those two are trying to protect Kiki". Will said to them.
Harry shakes his head as he is firing his Neo Defender blaster. "Daniel really wants to save her from Eliastro". Harry said to them.
Roxy nods as she notice Blaise's expression back at the Cave. "Yeah Blaise looked like that he was sense knocked into him by Kiki just before it happened". Roxy said to them. She sends electric energy at the Rampigs.
Liz nods as she kicks at a Gobot. "That's definitely Kiki, Roxy, she maybe a bit outlandish and eccentric, but she really does have a spiritual way of thinking". Liz said to them.
Harry nods as he looks at James. "Yeah she is very reliable and stealth. She always have our back even when we had no idea who she was before she joined the team. Reliability is a quality that has to be shared with the world. If you just rely on yourself and your needs before others, you are carrying a selfish lifestyle". Harry said to James. James nods as he is starting to understand.
In the last group, it is Ash and Leon as they are fighting Eliastro. Eliastro is getting frustrated as Ash and Leon are in his way to get to Kiki. "That little Guardian has the power that I desire". Eliastro yells at Ash and Leon. He fires his psychic powers at them.
Leon and Ash dodges it as they notice that Daniel and Blaise are with Kiki as they are fighting off Rampigs and Gobots together. "Leon, they need more help over there". Ash said to Leon as he summons his power.
Leon looks at them as there are a lot more of them near Kiki than the others. "What about you Ash? Eliastro is stronger than he looks". Leon said to Ash. He fires his fire power at Eliastro.
Eliastro dodges it as he is going at it on them. "Leon, the leader has to make the tough decisions in a battle. Plus you and I both can see that they need more help, and we are spread to thin". Ash said to Leon. Leon looks at Ash as he starts to understand now.
"James, Tabitha and Roxy go help Daniel and Blaise now". Ash said to them.
"Aiden, Will, and Liz go with them. The rest of you with Ash and I to keep this freak back". Leon said to them as he is showing his leadership.
Aiden, Will, and Liz go with them. The rest of you with Ash and I to keep this freak back". Leon said to them as he is showing his leadership.
The Rangers nod as they are getting their orders. James nods as he notices that Blaise and Daniel are about to get hit from behind by rampigs. He remembers what the Harry told him. He charges in as he sends a blast of wind at them. "I will always be there and got your back. I know when my team needs me to get the job done". James said to them as he is showing his leadership.
Eliastro frowns as he looks at them. He notices the Neo Defender Blue ranger is not as strong like the others. He fires a psychic power blast at him. Tabitha frowns as she it hits Will. "If you think I will ditch a blue ranger think again", Tabitha yells out loud as she sends a torrent of water at Eliastro. She is showing her loyalty.
Eliastro gets hit by the torrent of water. He takes a huge stumble back. He is getting very angry as he glares at Tabitha. "I should be taking you again blue ranger". Eliastro yells at Tabitha. He fires a powerful energy orb at them.
As the energy orb is coming at them, the Dragon/Griffin sees how Leon, James, and Tabitha has prove themselves. A special veil is covering the rangers as the energy orb gets cut in half away from them as it explodes. "Woah she is really fighting back now". Ash said to them. "I have to agree". Aiden said to them. Daniel is in awe of the move.
"The Phoenix, the Mermaid, and the Garuda has proven their qualities to me. The Power of the Royal Trio belongs to them now. You SHALL NEVER TOUCH THEM YOU HEINOUS FIEND". Kiki said to them as she has a majestic voice like an angel. She sends the powers to Leon, James, and Tabitha.
Leon, James, and Tabitha feels the power as like they are truly synched with it. They float up in the air like they are even closer to the Phoenix, Garuda, and Mermaid respectively.
Eliastro frowns as he sees this happening. "NO THIS CAN NOT BE". Eliastro said to them.
"You better believe it pal". Blaise said to Eliastro.
Leon, James, and Tabitha fires a beam at Eliastro. The red, green, and blue beams combine in a swirl as it is aimed at Eliastro.
Eliastro gets hit directly as he takes a huge stumble to the ground. As he gets back up, he glares at them. "I will be back Power Rangers. Next time, you will not be as lucky especially that blue and orange rangers". Eliastro said to them as he teleports away.
As the battle is over the Dragon and the Griffin looks at the rangers. "All of you did a great job today, now that Kiki has passed the Power of the Royal Trio to its true chosen ones, I can depart from her'. The dragon said to them.
The griffin nods as it looks at them. "I will be with young Kiki still. However I do fear that evil one is not done with her and you Mermaid'. The griffin said to them.
They watch the dragon leaving and the Griffin went back into Kiki's body. Kiki floats back down to the ground. She opens her eyes as she instantly demorphs. "Hey guys", Kiki said to them. She has a faint smile on her face.
The teens are happy to see her especially Daniel. "Oh Kiki, you had us worried big time. I don't want to consider getting you a leash, but Wes might consider it". Daniel said to Kiki.
Leon and the others look at him. "What's with the leash thing"? Twyla asks them. They shrug as they don't know.
Kiki has a faint smile as she is exhausted. "I know and I am sorry I worried you guys as well. I am ready to". Kiki said to them as her eyes rolls back as she passed out.
Daniel and Blaise catches her before she could hit the ground. "Nice catch Blaise", James said to Blaise.
Blaise shrugs as he hands Kiki to Daniel. "Yeah I should carry her bridal style. It is an orange ranger thing". Blaise said to them. The teens look at each other as they teleport back to the Cave.
Back at the Cave, the teens return as Kiki is in the med bay. Wes came by during the battle as he explained his ranger situation to Melissa and Rory as they completely understood that he was busy and could not help them.
In the med bay, Wes is watching over Kiki. He notices the new injuries. He notices the branding scar is still there on her body. "Oh Kiki, I am so sorry that I couldn't be here for you when you needed it. You have been through hell and back again. Then again, another team of rangers were there this time against an evil being that took an interest in you. I will be right here when you wake up". Wes said to Kiki. He is holding her bandaged hand.
Tabitha walks in the room as she is aware about Wes and their familial relationship. She went towards them. "She really kicked butt today even though it was the Dragon and the Griffin in control of her for the right reasons". Tabitha said to Wes. She is standing at the foot end of the bed.
Daniel nods as he walks in the room. "Yeah I have to agree with Tabitha. Even though she has been through hell back to back, I have a feeling that she is becoming a stronger person than we realize". Daniel said to them. He went to the other side as he touches her hand.
Wes turns around as he look at Tabitha and Daniel. "Yeah I watched the battle footage. I have a feeling that Kiki is a lot more special than I thought". Wes said to Tabitha. He notices that Daniel has strong feelings for Kiki.
As Kiki hears Wes, Daniel's and Tabitha's words, she has a light smile on her face as she senses that both of them there. Both of her hands give them a small grip as she knows that they are there. 'She hears all three of you loved ones of the orange branded ranger'. A ghost said to them as it vanishes. The three of them look at each other as there was a small chill in the air just now.
Meanwhile back at the Evil Castle, Xolicernic frowns as Eliastro failed in his plans. "So your plan to get the power from the orange ranger failed after all. I suspected as much". Xolicernic said to himself. All the sudden, Xolicernic feels a strange presence as it is not on the monitors. "That's odd, I could have felt something being here just now. No matter, it is time to come up with a new plan". Xolicernic said to himself.
In the main ops, Zophicles frowns as Kiki is the first one to unlock her wizard power. "So that Orange ranger unlocked the powers of Remius. I do believe it is time to launch my plan on the other rangers especially those who has the fairy powers". Zophicles said to himself as he comes up with his plan.
