Chapter 56: Defeating Thy Personal Demon Part 9: Knowing Who and Where People are in the Final Three
The teens look at each other as they know that the Ray that truly know and love is back. Oliver has a grin on his face as he is ready to go into the battle. "Lets Move", Oliver said to them. The teens head out to the battle scene. They see that Ray is full of smiles.
At downtown Riverdale, the teens are face to face with the final demon beast. It is like a mutant hybrid of an artist and a samurai. "So, you must be those rangers hah". The demon beast said to them. The demon beast has paint brush like katana swords.
Johan looks at the rangers as something might be up. "Guys heads up, this maybe the last demon beast, but it may have something up his sleeves". Johan said to them.
The teens nod as they grab their morphors out. The demon beast has a devious smile on its face like it is almost time to unleash its plan.
"Elemental Saints Power of the Heavens", the teens said as they morph into ranger form.
"Elemental Saints Power of Miracles", Nicole said as she morphs into ranger form.
The demon beast has its weapons out. "Illusion Master Pieces", the demon beast said as it fires its illusions beams at the rangers. As it hits Ray, Johan, and Nicole, a big flash of light pulls them into an illusion.
In Johan's illusion, Johan is in a ritzy home as he is home from school. "Hello", Johan said as he looks around. He notices that he has designer clothes on as it is very strange for him. 'This is weird'. Johan thought to himself.
A butler comes out as he is holding some snacks. "Ah, welcome home Master Johaness, your mother and father are waiting for you in the living room". The butler said to Johan.
Johan looks at the butler as he is caught off guard by it. "My parents are waiting for me". Johan said to the butler.
The butler looks at Johan strangely as this not normal for him to say. As the butler leads Johan to his parents, his parents looks at Johan. "Johaness, we need to talk about your future and your future wife". Johaness's father said to Johan as his mother agrees. Johan frowns as this is something he does not see coming.
In Ray's illusion, she is at a home in Warrior Heights. She recognizes Robert and Jacob sitting at the table. However she does not recognize the other young man, and the parents. 'This is definitely on the weird factor'. Ray thought to herself as she takes her seat at the table.
"Rachel, we are about to have a family dinner", the older adult man said to Ray. He has light brown hair with silver fringes and green eyes.
Ray looks at the man as she sees the very healthy relationship between him and his wife, her mom. 'My parents loves each other, is this really true'? Ray thought to herself.
The family look at each other as they are sitting down for dinner. The middle child, he looks at them like he has an announcement to make. "Everyone, I have very big news to share". The second eldest child said to them. They turn to him like they are expecting a his to come out. "I have finally asked Terra to be my girlfriend and she said yes". The second eldest son said to them. Ray is very confused as this is not normal.
In Nicole's illusion, she is back in Warrior Heights as she notices that Thomas and Michelle are in deep thought as they are looking at some items that needs to be hidden with someone. "Hey, I am home". Nicole said to Thomas and Michelle.
Thomas and Michelle quickly hides the items that are on the table. "How was work honey". Michelle said to Nicole. Thomas is playing it cool as he puts out college information on the table.
Nicole is very puzzled by Thomas and Michelle's behavior. "Work was great, what is the brochures for"? Nicole asks them as she has not thought about college at all yet. Plus it was not discussed when she was at their house back then.
Back at the battle scene, the rangers are stunned to see Johan, Ray, and Nicole frozen like they are stuck in place. "Ray, Johan, Nicole, can you hear me"? Oliver yells to them.
The demon beast laughs at them. "They are in my illusion master pieces. Now they are unable to fight me". The demon beast said to them.
The rangers grits their teeth as this is bad. "Oliver, we got to get them to snap out of that illusion". Terra said to Oliver.
Oliver nods as he looks at the situation. "Riley, you snap Johan out, Logan, you snap Nicole out, and Terra, you snap out of Ray". Oliver said to them.
Charlie looks at Oliver as he wants to snap Ray out of it. "Hey Oliver, let me assist with snapping Ray out of it". Charlie said to Oliver as he has feelings towards Ray.
Terra notices that Charlie has that determined look on his face. "I believe that you can snap Ray out of it, Charlie". Terra said to Charlie. The teens nod in agreement.
Oliver looks at Charlie as he does have faith in him. "Alright, you, Riley, and Logan get Ray, Johan, and Nicole to snap them out of their illusions while the rest of us will deal with that demon beast and cover you guys". Oliver said to them.
"Right", Riley, Logan, and Charlie said to Oliver. As they went towards them, the others are taking on the demon beast.
Riley, Charlie, and Logan rush over to them as they get started. "Any ideas on how to get through to them"? Logan asks them.
Charlie looks at a frozen Ray as she is stuck in the illusion. "We have to touch their hands or maybe their morphors. Maybe they will hear us if we touch them". Charlie said to them.
Riley nods as it is an idea. "It is worth to try, Charlie". Riley said to them. She went towards Johan as she touches his morphor and hand.
Logan nods as he looks at his sister. "I want my sister to snap out of the illusion". Logan said as he touches her morphor and hand.
Charlie looks at Ray as he is putting his heart on the line to free her. 'Ray, you do not know how I feel about you just yet, but you are always true to yourself'. Charlie thought to himself as he puts his hands on her morphor and hand as he is blushing beet red underneath his helmet.
Back in Johan illusion, Johan is perplexed by the news from his parents. "What do you mean discuss my future and my future wife? I am dating Riley". Johan said to them.
"Riley, she is not suitable for the family, Johaness", Johan's father said to Johan.
"Yes, you need to meet your future wife soon", Johan's mom said to Johan.
Johan frowns as he gets the feeling that his birth parents are very wealthy people. He gets the feeling that this is not real.
"Johan, can you hear me"? A figure representing Riley appears to Johan. "This is an illusion. What you are seeing is an illusion. You know that your birth parents are not alive. You got to tell them that they will always live in your heart forever". Riley said to Johan.
Johan nods as he realizes it as the figure disappears. He turns to his parents as has tears in his eyes. "Mother, father, this is not real. As much as I want it to be real, it is not the actual reality. I know that the two of you passed away in a car accident when I was a baby. I have waited 18 years to be adopted again by marine corps officer. Mark Sloane is a great man, and I gained a sister as well. I know now that the two of you were very wealthy people. You two got know that you will be in my heart forever". Johan said to his parents.
Johan's birth father and mother look at each other as the scene changes to a cemetery. "We know that you are being loved by a man who has served this country". Johan's father said to Johan.
Johan's mother nods as she smiles at him. "Plus we can see how much you care and love Riley. We may not be there for your biggest moments in life, but we will always live in your heart forever". Johan's mom said to Johan.
As Johan hugs his parents, Johan feels a power within him. "Thanks mother and father", Johan said to them. "Now go back and save your friends, we are proud that you became a Power Ranger". They said in unison. Johan nods as he punches out from the illusion.
In Nicole's illusion, Nicole is stumped by it. She looks at Thomas and Michelle as she has always wanted to know something. "Why did you disappear from me"? Nicole asks Thomas and Michelle.
Thomas and Michelle look at each other as they look back to Nicole. "We have not disappeared from you, Nicole". Michelle said to Nicole.
Nicole looks at them as she did see special items on the table just before their conversation even began. She even thinks back to her dream about a sacrifice that was made. "Did you two made a sacrifice of some kind"? Nicole asks them.
Thomas and Michelle look at each other as they look at Nicole. "You must have been having some crazy dreams honey". Michelle said to Nicole.
Just as Nicole is doubting herself even more, the figure of Logan shows up for her. "Nicole, Nicole, this is an illusion. You got to tell them that they did sacrifice themselves to save you for a reason. I know that you do miss them and wonder where they are. You can break this illusion". Logan said to Nicole.
Nicole nods as she looks at Logan. She turns to Thomas and Michelle. "This is not real, Thomas and Michelle". Nicole said to them. She has a determined look on her face. They look at Nicole as they realize that she is right.
Nicole looks at the them as she has a stern look on her face. "When I walked in to this house a while back, you two disappeared and all it was left was a note saying that I had to face my destiny back in my hometown. Everything was gone from this very house. I know that you two are hiding something from me, and yet I know that you two did something very special and important sacrifice to protect me". Nicole said to them.
Thomas and Michelle look at each other as they realize that they can't hide it from her. "We did something to protect you and the Rangers, Nicole. We are the guardians of the Scepter of the Saints. When we felt that Empress Temptaru was returning, we knew in our hearts that your brother is going to become the Elemental Saint of Light". Thomas said to Nicole.
Michelle nods to Nicole as she looks at her. "Indeed, we are deeply close with Jesse and chose us to hide the Elemental Saint Shards to a special location where you will have to earn it. However when we knew that you are becoming a ranger, we had a feeling that evil will be targeting you before you could get back to your hometown. When we left to hide the shard pieces, we were captured by Judariot and refused to tell him where you are. We know that you became a ranger and rebuild your relationship with Logan". Michelle said to Nicole.
Nicole nods as she sees the scenery changing to a dungeon at the Underground Abyss. She turns and sees them in chains and dingy clothes. "I will get you two out". Nicole said to them.
Thomas and Michelle nod as they looks at Nicole. "We know that you can do it". Thomas and Michelle said to Nicole. Nicole nods as she breaks her illusion.
In Ray's illusion, Ray is very happy as she looks at her family. As she sees Terra coming in and kisses her older brother, Ray is overjoyed as she is with her biological family. As she looks at them, Ray could not help but to feel that something is very wrong.
The man looks at Ray as he sees her as daddy's little girl. "So Rachel, I take it that boy gotten his butt kicked for hurting you like he did". The father said to Ray.
Ray does a double take as she hears it. "That boy, who are you talking about"? Ray asks her father.
The man looks at Ray as he rises a skeptical brow. "That boy, Charlie, he is the one that broken your heart". The man said to Ray as he is getting violently angry like he is about to hit someone.
Ray frowns as she realizes that it is not a happy family moment. "George please calm down, Rachel is probably confused by it". The woman said to the man named George.
George looks at his wife as he calms down. "I am sorry Heather. There is no guy good enough for my little girl". George said to the woman named Heather.
As Ray looks at them, a figure of Charlie appears to her. "Ray, you got to realize and understand that this is just an illusion. It is not real". Charlie said to Ray.
Ray turns to Charlie as she is starting to see the actual scene changing to what it truly is. "This scene is not real". Ray said to Charlie.
Charlie shakes his head to Ray. "No Ray, you know that your adopted father is really your biological brother. You know now that your biological father is an abusive man. You know that your older brother is in prison and your other older brother is in town. You got to tell them that you are alive, and Ray, you are the kind of girl that I like to be with. You always stay true to yourself, and you have a beautiful spirit". Charlie said to Ray.
Ray looks at Charlie as she is blushing like girl. She nods to Charlie as she turns to them. She has that spitfire attitude as she is facing them. "This is not real. This is some illusion to get me to believe that this is my happy biological family. I know the truth about my biological family, and I do accept that my adoptive father is actually my biological brother". Ray said out loud with a new found boost of confidence in herself.
As the scene changes, it shows just shows the man named George as he has a menacing and violent look on his face. "I never thought there is a girl in this family. That weak woman that is your mother has a lot more courage to send you for adoption than I thought. Plus you have a spitfire of attitude about you girl". George said to Ray.
Illusion ends
Back in the battle, the teens are getting exhausted. They notice a bright light coming from Ray, Johan, and Nicole. "Guys look", Adrienne said to them. "They did it". Ingrid said to them. "I have never doubted them especially Charlie". Terra said to them. "Yeah", Emery said to them as Oliver nods in agreement.
The demon beast frowns as it glares at them. "How dare you, my illusions are suppose to keep you in". The demon beast said to them.
Johan looks back at the demon beast. "Those illusions will never interfere with what we know". Johan said to the demon beast.
Ray glares at the demon beast. "Those illusions can not take away the truth". Ray said to the demon beast.
Nicole also glares at the demon beast. "Those illusions will never stop us from knowing the truth about the people that loved us, care about us, and protect us". Nicole said to the demon beast.
The demon beast roars in anger. Just as it charges at them with its paint brush sword, a special veil is protecting them. 'The time has come to use your saint power. You three have truly earned it'. The three Saints telepathically said to Johan, Ray, and Nicole.
Power of Saint Cecilia Arisen", Johan said as he is unlocking his power.
"Power of Saint Rita of Cascia Arisen", Ray said as she is unlocking her power.
"Power of Saint Patrick Arisen", Nicole said as she is unlocking her power.
Morphing Sequence
Johan is in a red heavenly scenery as it looks like he is in the country side of France. He has blue robes with pants underneath. The blue cross becomes saintly wings. He has armor on his body as well. His helmet is blue with a blue halo on top. His weapon is upgraded as well. "Power of Saint Cecilia Elemental Saint Blue Ranger". Johan said as he is in his new pose.

She has armor on her body as well. Her helmet is purple with a purple halo on top. Her weapon is upgraded as well. "Power of Saint Rita of Cascia Elemental Saint Purple Ranger". Ray said as she is in her ranger pose.

She has armor on her body as well. Her helmet is cyan with a cyan halo on top. His weapon is upgraded as well. "Power of Saint Patrick Elemental Saint Cyan Ranger". Nicole said as she is in her new pose.
End Morphing Sequence
The demon beast frowns as this is the last three rangers to get their saintly powers. The rangers are happy to see it finally happening especially to Ray. "No, no, this can not be happening. I refuse for this to happen". The demon beast said to them as it is throwing a temper tantrum at the rangers.
"Power of Saint Cecilia", Johan said out loud as he is pulling out his weapon and powering it up.
"Power of Saint Rita of Cascia", Ray said out loud as she is pulling out her weapon and powering it up.
"Power of Saint Patrick", Nicole said out loud as she is pulling out her weapon and powering up.
"Fire", the three rangers said in unison.
As the three attacks are sent out, it hits the demon beast directly as it gets destroyed by the rangers. It gets turned to black dust.
The rangers gather around them as they are happy that they defeated their personal demon. "Guys let's head back to the Tower". Terra said to them. The teens nod as they head back to the Tower.
Back at the Tower, the teens are talking among themselves as Ray is unusually quiet as she is thinking about what Charlie said to her. Terra walks over to Ray as she knows that something is bothering her. "Hey, why are you not celebrating with the others"? Terra asks Ray.
Ray looks at Terra as she nods to her. "I want to meet my older brother. You know the one that lead that attack on you in the Middle East. How can I tell my dad, I mean Robert that"? Ray asks Terra.
Terra sighs as she looks at Ray. "You will have to talk to him about it. You can not avoid him any more. Plus I do believe that Charlie wants to talk to you". Terra said to Ray.
Ray notices Charlie as he is holding some red roses. She is blushing as Terra has that knowing look on her face. "I will give you two some time". Terra said to Ray as she went towards Jason.
Ray looks at Charlie as she smiles at him. "I heard what you said while I was trapped in that illusion. You truly mean that don't you". Ray said to Charlie.
Charlie nods to Ray as he pulls out the red roses. "Yes I do Ray. You do not need to change anything about yourself to gain a guy. You are a very special person, and I want to be that person that you can lean on when things gets tough. I do like your a lot, Rachel". Charlie said to Ray.
Ray smiles at Charlie as it is the first time that one of her friends calls her by her full name with a lot of courage. "I do like you as well. I do like how you make a bold move from time to time. Plus you are the first guy to call me Rachel outside of being in trouble with someone". Ray said as she is blushing.
As the two share a romantic hug, it gets the attention from the others. "I was wondering when he was going to tell her his feelings". Oliver said to them. The teens nod in agreement with him.
Terra looks at them as with all the demon beast battles they need a day off. "Rangers, I want all of you to head home. I declaring tomorrow a day off. You all deserve it". Terra said to them.
The teens nod as they leave the Tower. Ray and Charlie look at each other as they are walking out the Tower. "Do you want to get some ice cream"? Charlie said to Ray.
Ray nods to Charlie as she smiles at him. "Yeah", Ray said to Charlie as they leave together hand and hand.
