Chapter 50: The Test in Martiala Part 1: Sam, Luke, and Elliot

On Martiala, the Spirit Warrior teens land on the ground. "Ok remind me never travel via a portal again". Abby said to them as they stand up.

The teens nod in agreement as they look in the new dimension. "It is kind of weird, but this looks very similar to our planet but more like a different kind of Earth". Quincy said to them. As the other teens are about to say something, the ghostly spirit of Airis appears to them. "Welcome to Martiala, Spirit Warrior Rangers, I know why you are here". The Spirit of Airis said to them.

The teens are surprised by the visit from the spirit of Airis appearing to them. "You do", Ryan said to Airis as he is skeptical about it.

Airis nods to them as he turns to Mount Zolius. "The nine of you has to save your mentor. Be warned that Mount Zolious is not to be taken lightly. Only the Grand Masters of a Spirit Warrior can trek on that mountain. Plus you have to past a special test in order to trek on that mountain. Once you pass your test, you will be instantly teleported to base of the mountain. Plus your warrior spirit will always be with you via tattoo on your back. However there is one thing I should tell you. Your mentor is not the only one that was locked up in the old base. The other person that was locked up was your father red and gold rangers". Airis said to them.

The teens are very shocked as it is the first time to hear this detail of Quincy James's captive past. "He was taken there". Cora said to Airis. "Why to Mount Zolius thought"? Quincy asks Airis.

Airis looks at Quincy and Cora. "The evil one will have the answer. Your tests are located in nine different areas of Martiala, good luck rangers". Airis said as he spirit disappears.

The teens look at each other as they look at their morphors. Each ranger see a spot where their test is taking place. "Looks like we have to spilt up". Callum said to them. "Yeah if there is trouble, we can keep in contact". Luke said to them. The teens nod to each other as they went on their way.

After a few hours of walking, Sam finds herself in a bamboo forest. She looks around as the surroundings look kind of familiar to her. 'This is weird. It looks like the surrounding in my dream before I became a ranger'. Sam thought to herself.

"Strike at your insecurities, Samantha", a mysterious voice said to Samantha.

All the sudden, double stars are thrown at Sam. Sam dodges them as she sees the attacker. The attacker is another ninja, but it is the shadow of herself. Sam is stunned by this as she finds herself in her test.

Elliot is finding himself on cliff over looking the sea. He is reminded of his dream that he ha before he became a ranger. "You are not the lazy and weak minded when I first met you, Elliot. Do you have the power to pass the test"? The Spartan said to Elliot.

Elliot looks at Spartan as a shadow of him is attacking at him. This shadow that is attacking him is another Spartan. Elliot is taken back by this as he is ready to fight.

Meanwhile, Luke is in the same wooded area from his dream before he became a ranger. "Ok this is weird; it is just like in the beginning". Luke said to himself. "Your courage has grown like a mountain, Luke. Do you have the courage to face the shadow of yourself"? The Soldier asks Luke.

All the sudden, a shadow version of Luke shows up, and this shadow is also a soldier. It is just like him but very different. Luke is not expecting this as the shadow is starting to attack him. He realizes that his test starts now.

Back at Sam's test, Sam grabs her warrior saber as she uses the bamboo forest to blend in with the nature. "I know your every insecurity. Bullies always targeted you". Shadow Sam said to Sam as it kicks at a bamboo.

The bamboo is about to fall on Sam. She manages to dodge it as she jumps in to the air. Shadow Sam spots her as she closely follows her. "I know that Luke is going to ditch you once he graduates from high school. He wants to dad more beautiful women". Shadow Sam said to Sam as she kicks and punches at her.

Sam lands on the ground as she is getting fed up by her shadow. "You know what. I have changed for the better, and you do not know a thing about me. I am a confident person with friends and family. I have a better relationship with my sister in years. I can stand up to my bullies, and I love Luke more than you can ever know. I am secure about myself, and you will not be in my life". Sam said as she is more confident than she is ever before.

All the sudden, Sam feels a power and ninja aura covering her body. Sam is in her ninja pose as she has her warrior saber in her hands. As she does her special ninja moves, Sam lands a direct hit on her shadow form.

As the shadow form of Sam gets hit directly by Sam's warrior saber. "No, you are suppose to be insecure like the little girl you are". Shadow Sam said to Sam.

Sam glares back at her shadow. "Not this ninja, shadow me", Sam said as she slashes at the shadow form with her warrior saber. As the shadow form of Sam disappears in a puff of smoke, a glow is coming from her back.

The ninja walk towards Sam. "You have passed your test Samantha. You have overcome your insecurities. The ninja will always be with you". The Ninja said to Sam.

Sam nods to the ninja spirit. "I got one question though. Who are you"? Sam asks the ninja. She is very curious about the ninja.

The ninja looks at Sam as it takes off its mask. Sam is very stunned as she learns the identity of the ninja. "No way, you look just like me". Sam said to the ninja.

The ninja nods to Sam. "That's correct, I may look just like you, but my name is Soledad. Soledad said to Sam. Sam nods to Soledad. "That explains a lot", Sam said to Soledad.

Soledad nods to Sam. "Now that you pass the test, you are ready to trek on Mount Zolius", Soledad said to Sam. Sam nods as she has a confident look on her face as she is teleported to the base of the mountain.

Back at Elliot's test, Elliot is having a difficult time with the shadow version of himself. "I liked it when you were gullible to fall for the easiest of pranks. Plus I loved it when you are so distant from your siblings. You should have let your sister get hit by the poison". Shadow Elliot said to Elliot as he kicks at him. The shadow Elliot is laughing at him as he is about to win.

Elliot rolls towards the cliff as he finds himself hanging on to very cliff. He remembers about his past adventures, and he is also remembers the sacrifice he made to save Bree. "Family is always important. I have the power to protect them even when we do not have the best relationship. I have power to change things. I am not weak minded or gullible anymore". Elliot said as he is feeling more empowered.

All the sudden, Elliot feels a power and a Spartan aura covering his body. Elliot is in his spartan pose as he has his warrior saber in his hands. As he does his special ninja moves, Elliot lands a direct hit on his shadow form.

As the shadow form of Elliot gets hit directly by Elliot's warrior saber. "No, you are suppose to be weak minded and gullible like you are". Shadow Elliot said to Elliot.

Elliot glares back at his shadow. "This Spartan will not be anything like me, shadow me", Elliot said as he slashes at the shadow form with his warrior saber. As the shadow form of Elliot disappears in a puff of smoke, a glow is coming from his back.

The spartan walk towards Elliot. "You have passed your test Elliot. You have overcome your weak minded and laziness. The Spartan will always be with you". The Spartan said to Elliot.

Elliot nods to the spartan spirit. "I got one question though. Who are you"? Elliot asks the Spartan. He is very curious about the Spartan.

The spartan looks at Elliot as it takes off its helmet. Elliot is very surprised as he learns the identity of the Spartan. "Ok this is really wild. You look just like me". Elliot said to the Spartan.

The Spartan nods to Elliot. "That's correct, I may look just like you, but my name is Earnest". Earnest said to Elliot. Elliot nods to Earnest. "That explains a lot", Elliot said to Earnest.

Earnest nods to Elliot. "Now that you pass the test, you are ready to trek on Mount Zolius", Earnest said to Elliot. Elliot nods as he has a confident look on his face as he is teleported to the base of the mountain.

Back at Luke's test, Luke is having a tougher time against his shadow of himself. He is fighting his deepest fears. "You should be scared of your learning disability. Your girlfriend is only dating you because of your learning disability". Shadow Luke said as he kicks Luke.

Luke is sent flying towards a tree. He lands on a tree branch. He frowns as he has to defeat his shadow of himself soon. "I am not afraid to overcome my learning disability. Sam loves me for who I am. The thing is, you will not be in my world ever". Luke said to his shadow form.

All the sudden, Luke feels a power and a Soldier aura covering his body. Luke is in his soldier pose as he has his warrior saber in his hands. As he does his special soldier moves, Luke lands a direct hit on his shadow form.

As the shadow form of Luke gets hit directly by Luke's warrior saber. "No, you are suppose to be scared of your learning disability like you are". Shadow Luke said to Luke.

Luke glares back at his shadow. "This Soldier will not be anything like me, shadow me", Luke said as he slashes at the shadow form with his warrior saber. As the shadow form of Luke disappears in a puff of smoke, a glow is coming from his back.

The solider walk towards Luke. "You have passed your test Luke. You have the courage to face your deepest fears. The Soldier will always be with you". The Soldier said to Luke.

Luke nods to the soldier spirit. "I got one question though. Who are you"? Luke asks the Soldier. He is very curious about the soldier

The soldier looks at Luke as it takes off its hat. Luke is very surprised as he learns the identity of the Soldier. "Ok this is really wild. You look just like me". Luke said to the Soldier.

The Soldier nods to Luke. "That's correct, I may look just like you, but my name is Leo ". Leon said to Luke. Luke nods to Leon. "That explains a lot", Luke said to Leon.

Leon nods to Luke. "Now that you pass the test, you are ready to trek on Mount Zolius", Leon said to Luke. Luke nods as he has a confident look on his face as he is teleported to the base of the mountain.

At the base of Mount Zolius,

Sam, Elliot, and Luke are reunited together. "Sam, you passed your test". Luke said to Sam.

Sam nods to them. "I sure did. I guess now we to wait for the others to get here". Sam said to them.

Elliot nods as he looks at them. "Yeah, we should wait for Quincy and the others getting here. Plus I hope that Dr. Taylor is alright". Elliot said to them.

Sam and Luke nod as they are worried as well. "Yeah plus I hope there is not much trouble in Warrior Heights". Luke said to them. "I have to agree. I know that the Unity Force Rangers are looking after things". Sam said to them as they wait for their friends.

Meanwhile, back on the top of Mount Zolius, Dr. Zack Taylor is still trapped in the old headquarters. He is in a lonely prison cell. He has cuffs on his wrists, and he is raised up via chains. 'If only I can reach for something', Zack thought to himself as he is really in trouble.

In the main room, Attilan looks at the monitors as he looks what is going on in Martiala. Agatha and Maxius walk in the room. "What is going on Attilan"? Maxius asks Attilan.

Attilan looks at Maxius. "It seems that the silver, yellow, and green rangers has passed their tests. It will not be long that they will be heading up the mountain". Attilan said to them.

Maxius looks at Attilan. "Indeed", Maxius said to Attilan. Agatha looks at them. "Perhaps once the rangers get to the top, we should make them suffer again". Agatha said to Attilan.

Attilan looks at Agatha. "What do you have in mind? Zilenya has the machines at the Fortress". Attilan said to Agatha.

Agatha glances at Attilan. "That maybe true Attilan, but who says we need a machine to make him suffer". Agatha said to them. She has a devilish look on her face. Attilan and Maxius nod as they get the idea.
