In the last instalment of Power Rangers Wing Force, Algrin finally created his ultimate monster, the Neo-Mutabrid, by fusing the DNA of Queen Uuhcura and Emperor Tann onto the body of Yas Rushton. The result of this experiment wiped out a Hybrasect and crippled even the Ultrazord. Meanwhile, Mary woke up from her coma, much to Mark's surprise.

Fwelf and Galvahex looked down at the damage that Algrin's monster had created. "This is amazing. Algrin's managed to create something capable of toppling those Rangers.", Fwelf smiled. "We were right to make him our leader."

"Your flattery does you credit, Fwelf.", Algrin said in response. "Thanks to what you described about the information the late Queen gave to you about Mutabrids and seeing her powers for myself, I came up with the notion of creating a superior creation, with none of the weaknesses of the original Mutabrid. And I must thank Galvahex for finding the perfect body onto which I transplanted the DNA. It helped make my creation far superior than it would be if it was using a Mutasect."

"You're welcome.", Galvahex replied with a hint of annoyance. "But are you sure that you can control this creation of yours. You seemed to have overlooked one small flaw in the creature."

"Oh, and what's that?"

"Surely the creature would've returned to the ship by now, if it was really yours to command.", was Galvahex's answer. With that said, he walked out of the room.

Algrin thought for a moment, then realised that the robot's words had merit. "Where is my creation? It should've returned here on instinct."

Fwelf went over to a relay and brought up a map, with a signal coming up at a quarry. "It seems to have retreated to the quarry. Probably due to lingering memories from its genetic material."

"Send down the U-Clones to retrieve it."

Fwelf was startled by this. "But my Lord, we only have a handful of them left. Once these are gone, we'll have no way to make more after you created the Neo-Mutabrid."

"I don't care!", Algrin snarled. "I need that creature back. Now obey me and send out the U-Clones."

Down on Earth, the Rangers had regrouped at the air base (the Lowfall having been among the buildings claimed by the last attack), alongside Mary and the two on-duty technicians Ratcliffe and Lefee. Mary had now changed out of the hospital pyjamas she had been wearing into combat fatigues, similar to what the Rangers had taken to wearing recently (other than Mark and Steven, who already had military uniforms). "So do we have any idea what that thing is?", Lulu asked. "Seems like a good place to start."

"From what we saw, this creature gives off 3 separate energy signals.", Ratcliffe informed everyone. "Two of them are Tann and someone very similar to him."

Steven looked over to Carrie. "You don't think that…?"

"No.", Carrie shook her head. "She died. We were all there when it happened."

Mary then asked what everyone seemed to be overlooking. "What's the third energy signature. If it's distinct from Tann and the other one, it must be another species entirely. Maybe even Algrin himself. I wouldn't put it past him for this to have been what he was planning."

Mark was surprised to hear this. "Wait, you knew that Algrin had a plan underway?"

Mary nodded. "While I was still in my Halatia persona, on the night after we'd defeated Uuhcura and Kodokor. I was returning to the ship with some sources of different animal DNA to use for Hybrasects, I saw Algrin moving the body of Queen Uuhcura into a secret room. He was talking about his plans for it and that he'd soon make the world pay. I wasn't able to see much else, other than a group of tubes, with the body placed into one of them. And before I could confront Algrin on it, I got restored to my normal self by a blast from a Beak Blaster and reverted to normal."

"That was convenient for you.", Wayne said, not willing to admit that he was the one who had shot her. "How did you remember this? You said that Halatia and Mary were two separate personalities."

"You see a lot of things when you're unconscious, Wayne.", Mary answered him. "I saw everything that Halatia did using my body while I was out cold and frankly, it sickened me more living through it a second time."

"I think we should get back on topic.", Lefee interrupted. "As Miss James pointed out, the third energy reading in that creature was different form the other two. Namely, because it's a human in there rather than whatever species Tann is from. In fact, it's similar to the energy signature of the time traveller from the other day."

"So that's what happened to Rushton.", Mark realised. "How's our situation concerning equipment and backup?"

"The vehicles are undergoing repairs to be ready within two hours, we can return your AviAttackers to you and Gordon and the two Avions said they'd be coming back to try and help with the situation, as did Captain Rolfe's team.", came the answer from Ratcliffe. "But for now, we're on our own, with only you five to defend us from that thing."

"Not just five.", Mark said. He stood up and retrieved Halatia's sceptre from a table on which it was lying. He then went over to Mary. "What do you say? We could use your help in stopping this thing and you've got the power to help us."

Mary was taken aback by this. "I'm sorry, I can't do this." She then stood up and bolted out of the room.

Mark sighed. "I'll go talk to her.", he said as he ran out after her.

Lulu sulked and put her hand to her chin. "I guess all we can do now is wait for something to happen."

Out in the quarry that Fwelf had observed on his scanner earlier, the Neo-Mutabrid staggered around, as if looking for something. It then stopped where it stood and growled into the air, before the last group of U-Clones teleported down to capture it. The creature looked at the lumbering brutes, with a gleam of recognition in its eyes. It then reached out all of its tendrils to touch the U-Clones, absorbing them into itself. "Reunite… as one.", the Neo-Mutabrid hissed, as it began to undergo a metamorphosis.

Back at the air base, Ratcliffe noticed something on his computer. "The signal from the creature is back. It's appeared at the quarry and it's fluctuating rapidly."

"Alright team, let's move out.", Wayne declared, taking charge in Mark's absence. The others got up, nodded affirmatively and set off for their vehicles. Wayne then went over to Ratcliffe. "You'll make sure that Gordon, Gliderak and Aluze know where we are?"

"You can count on it.", Ratcliffe assured him. Wayne gave him a thumbs up in return and set off himself.

Elsewhere, Mark caught up with Mary in a park. "Wow, you ran a long way from the base. And you are REALLY not easy to catch up with."

"I was always bronze at least in track meets.", Mary told him. "Sorry I ran off like that, but I just can't get what I did as Halatia out of my head." She pointed at the various ruined buildings in the skyline. "Most of those buildings up there are like that in part because of me."

"That wasn't your fault.", Mark tried to assure her. "You weren't in control."

"Not at first, yes.", Mary said in response. "But when I got freed of that influence, I didn't do anything to try and stop the Dominion's plans. Sure, I may have sabotaged Orpheus, but I could've prevented it from being built in the first place. And yet you trust me to help you, even after all that?"

"I trust you because of all that.", Mark said in response. "While you were out, Tann put 3 of the team under his control, like Uuhcura did to you. But I was able to get through to them and bring them back to our team, with our bond stronger than ever." He then walked forward with the sceptre held out. "Which is why I still trust you."

Mary apprehensively took the sceptre. "Are you really so sure you can trust me based on that experience? After all, I was compromised for longer than they were."

"And yet you've handled it well." Both Mark and Mary turned around to see Galvahex walking in from his ship. "Relax, Mark Goodman and Mary James. I'm not here for combat. You can chill."

"Was he just using contractions and slang?", Mark asked, confused by this.

"I think he's learning humanity.", Mary suggested. "Did you pick those up from my mind?"

"I - yes.", Galvahex replied. "Much as I have been loath to admit, I learned some human concepts from observing your brain scans. Even reaching back to our first meeting, I used your memories of compassion and mercy to help you live. Now, I'm only two steps away from achieving true humanity."

"What would those be?", Mark asked.

"The first thing that I lack is free will. I can make my own decisions, but the Dominion's programming dictates what I am allowed to follow."

Mary then asked what was on both their minds. "And what's the second thing?"

"I don't have a name of my own.", was the robot's answer. "Galvahex is simply my model name. I simply use it for lack of a better identification. By observing you, I learned that this only makes me seem like, as you say, a cog in a large machine."

"Then how about we try and fix that?", Mary suggested. "If you need a name, then how about… 'Oscar'?"

"'Oscar.' Yes, I like that.", Galvahex, now known as Oscar, replied. "Thank you, I won't forget what you have done for me, Mary." With that said, he turned around and teleported out.

"Do you still think you can't get over your evil days?", Mark asked. "After all, you managed to get through to him by doing next-to-nothing."

Mary sighed. "Well, I guess you're right." She picked up the sceptre. "Might as well throw caution to the wind."

At the quarry, Wayne and the others had arrived, only to find that there was no sign of the creature. "Are we sure that signal was accurate?", Lulu asked. "Because I don't see anything."

"It can't have been wrong.", Wayne replied. "Even if it was, we have to keep looking. Something set off the scanners and we could do with finding out whatever it was."

"Over there.", Carrie pointed at something. "There's someone coming out."

Everyone looked over to see that someone was indeed coming up. "Is that… Captain Rushton?", Steven asked. Sure enough, the figure came forward, resembling the time traveller from the other day.

"Is that what happened to him?", Wayne asked. "How did he set off our signal?"

"You've got to get away!", Rushton wheezed out. "She's about to -", he managed to get out before convulsing. As the Rangers looked on, disgusted, Rushton's body began to reshape itself, with bones crunching as they relocated themselves. As the grotesque magic trick completed itself, Rushton was gone.

In his place, the Rangers saw a woman wearing his clothes. An uncomfortably familiar one at that. "Ah, that's much better.", Uuhcura said. "But something's missing." Her eyes then glowed, reshaping the clothes into a replica of her robes as Queen. "Ah, now this is the real me."

"Not her again.", Lulu complained. "Didn't we already wipe you out?"

"My original body, yes child.", Uuhcura said in response. "But my treacherous subordinate Algrin saved my body, placing it in a machine to preserve it, while stealing parts of me for his brutish foot soldiers. But then he transplanted my body onto a living human, which provided me with a living vessel to help me revive myself. But the human's mind rejected mine, which prevented me from taking full control of his body. But then Algrin had my dear sweet brother Tann grafted onto this body also, and he gave his life so that I may overwhelm the human's conscious mind and control the body. But I still had some difficulty in controlling my new form, during which Algrin used me as his puppet to further wreck this city."

"You were that creature that attacked us earlier.", Wayne said, surprised.

"Yes, I believe Algrin called me his "Neo-Mutabrid", a crude title but definitely fitting as to my new situation. After I defeated you and your mechanical toy, I influenced the creature to retreat here, so that Algrin would send his U-Clones to retrieve me. Then I could reabsorb them and regain my power. Now that I am restored to more than my former power, I will once more lead the Dominion as it's rightful leader. This world is mine!"

"Sorry, your Majesty, but you seem to have overlooked one minor detail.", Wayne declared. "Namely, we're going to stop you. You guys ready?"

"Ready!", the other 3 replied. All four stepped forward and activated their change bracelets. "Let's Fly!" Wireframes surrounded all 4, onto which their suits were deposited.

Uuhcura merely smiled. "You seem to forget I have a transformation of my own." She then assumed her original Berserker Mode. "Let's see what you can do."

And so a fight began. It was horribly against the Rangers in terms of odds. Attempts by Steven and Lulu to attack Uuhcura directly didn't even put a dent in her body. When Wayne tried striking with his Wing Saber, Uuhcura levitated it out of his hand and made it attack its owner.

Carrie then tried aiming her Beak Blaster. "I just need to try and hit her jewel again.", she said, remembering how she had defeated the Queen last time. But when she tried to get a lock, she found herself unable to. "I can't find the jewel."

"I'm sorry to break it to you vermin, but I don't need one anymore.", Uuhcura said, as she zapped Carrie backwards again. "Thanks to my brother's pickpocketing, I had my power sapphire merged into my DNA. I can use magic by myself now." She then demonstrated this by zapping all of the Rangers, knocking them down. "Nothing from this planet can possibly hurt me anymore."

Maybe not this planet." Uuhcura turned around to see Gordon, Gliderak and Aluze standing at the top of the cliff. "But let's see how you do against those of the planets you destroyed." The three then transformed into their alien forms. "We've been waiting a long time for this.", Jangar said.

Uuhcura humphed. "Well, well. A Keiam and two Avions. I thought you were all extinct. Well if not, then you soon will be."

Onboard the ship, Oscar returned. "Where have you been?", Algrin asked, annoyed. "I didn't order you to leave the ship."

"I took the initiative of analysing the situation on Earth.", Oscar said in response. "It seems that the late Queen Uuhcura isn't as long gone as we all thought. And she's taken the Neo-Mutabrid for herself as a shell."

Algrin fumed. "Even now, that witch conspires to take away my rightful place as ruler. How is she faring?"

"She has engaged the Rangers in battle. And she's winning.", was the answer.

"So the Neo-Mutabrid is still a force to be reckoned with.", Algrin said, happy with his success. "But we need to be able to control it more directly." He turned to Fwelf. "Move the ship closer to Earth. We're going to be making some changes to our plan." With that, he left the room."

Fwelf moved over to the control console, only stopping to say this to his robotic ally. "I know what you were really up to on Earth. You were seeing your human girlfriend. And I'm going to tell Algrin that you befriended the Rangers after this is over. He'll have you scrapped."

Down in the quarry, Uuhcura had finished with the three extraterrestrial combatants. You're no more of a challenge than these Rangers. Is there no one on this planet that can even challenge me?"

As if on cue, Mary appeared, holding Halatia's sceptre. "I don't know if I can, but I do owe you some payback for turning me into your puppet." She then slammed on the top of the sceptre, transforming once again into her Halatia attire. "And you just so happen to have given me what I need to do just that."

But in the ensuing fight, Mary fared no better than any of the others that had gone up against Uuhcura. "Some help she's turning out to be.", Lulu commented. Then she realised somehing, but decided not to blurt it out loud, for fear of disrupting whatever plan was in motion.

"You were pathetic as a servant and you're pathetic as an opponent.", Uuhcura said as she held up the defeated body of Mary. "Now where is your lover? I think it would be fitting if I slew both of you at the same time."

"Taking you on was never my plan.", Mary said. "It was my distraction."

Before Uuhcura could question this, she felt something press against her back. Everyone else saw that it was Mark, fully morphed and wielding a Sonic Smasher, with his Wing Saber plugged into the scope and with his Sky Enforcer activated. "That's a lot of weapons to use at once.", Aluze noted. "Whatever energy runoff they produce when used together would be catastrophic."

"That's why we've never tried anything like it.", Jangar replied. "Mark, do not go through with what you're about to do."

But Mark ignored her, igniting both weapons are once. This sent him flying backwards into the rock, but Uuhcura recoiled in pain. "How is this possible?", she exclaimed. "You actually damaged me? ME?"

"I just gave my weapons a little charge.", Mark said, as he recovered his bearings. "It's the same technique we use to power up the Rover Launcher. I really had no idea if it would work."

"Well it seems to have done so.", Gliderak pointed out. "You successfully managed to wound the Queen." He indicated the large scar left by the impact.

"You meddling imbeciles!", Uuhcura declared. "In that case, I'll use my new power to reduce you all to molten waste." She then metamorphosed into the Neo-Mutabrid, with the location of her regular face becoming the neck of her new form. She also enlarged to the giant size she had attained earlier.

"You seem to forget that we have measures for that.", Mark said, before opening his communicator. "We need the Icarus!"

Take Off! Go, Go!

Uuhcura turned around to be greeted by the Icarus. "Do you really think your pathetic little toy can hurt me? It barely scratched my finest warrior and my son."

"Maybe so.", Mark said. "But even if we don't come back alive, we know that we've done our best to defend the Earth from people who want to ruin it. Isn't that right guys?"

"You bet.", Wayne and Carrie answered.

"Let's do it.", Steven and Lulu said in response.

"Wing Axe!" The Icarus deployed its weapon and moved towards its opponent, slashing her multiple times. Aside from a few sparks, this had little effect. Uuhcura then caught the axe, threw out out of their hands and slashed the Icarus with her claws, knocking it back. "She's still to powerful.", Wayne blurted out.

"Is that the best you've got?", Uuhcura gloated, before firing a beam from her mouth. The Megazord was hit, but it emerged unscathed from the blow and continued forward. It then jumped into the air.

Action Shift, On! Plane! Sonic! Jet! Zoom! Flier! Icarus Bomber! Take Off! Go, Go!

"What?", Uuhcura gasped.

"Icarus Crash!", the Rangers declared as the Icarus Bomber heated up upon approach. However, Uuhcura not only deflected this, but the Icarus was knocked back into the Megazord combination. Uuhcura then attacked her downed opponent with a long prehensile tongue, pulling it towards her and grabbing it by the hands.

"Say goodbye, Rangers.", the Queen declared, preparing to bite down on the Icarus. The shockwaves generated by this action knocked the Rangers out of their morphed state.

"Why are our giant opponents always tougher than our smaller ones?", Lulu complained.

"You would think it's the other way around, given that we often end up fighting in the robot's without our Ranger suits.", Carrie agreed.

The Icarus was then knocked down, with Uuhcura preparing her claws for the finishing blow. Before she could do so, she was shot at from above. "What's that?", Steven asked. His question then answered itself, with the Falcon flying down from the sky.

"We thought you could do with the help.", Jangar radioed from the centre seat of the Rangers' secondary Megazord. Gliderak, Aluze and Mary were occupying three of the other seats.

"We should combine to defeat this thing.", Gliderak suggested. "Like we did last time."

"I like that idea.", Mark said back. "Let's do it."

Miracle Falcombine!

Take Off! Go, Go, GO!

The combined Birdonic Ultrazord walked up to Uuhcura, who once more deployed her tongue, knocking it back. In the cockpit, the pilots of the Flacon were now standing behind the Rangers (except for Carrie). "She's still too powerful.", Mary noted as the Ultrazord was buffeted by the tongue for a second and a third time.

The third time, the Queen kept the robot trapped in her tongue as she tossed it around. "Thank you for making yourself a bigger target.", she gloated. "Now I can destroy you while you use the same weapon that destroyed my son." After letting go, she grabbed the Ultrazord's head and began shaking it apart.

"You seem to be forgetting something, your highness.", Mark pointed out. "We still have another robot. Dash Boxer!"

Vehicle Shift, On! Boxer! Take Off! Go, Go!

Dash Boxer ran forward and hit Uuhcura in the same spot where Mark's powerful shot had hit her earlier, causing her to recoil in pain and release the Ultrazord. "She's still feeling the pain from that injury.", Aluze noted. "Perhaps we can exploit that."

"We'd need to make sure things were perfect enough to hit that exact spot.", Wayne said.

The Ultrazord managed to get a few good hits in on that spot, before Uuhcura turned around to stop them. "You insolent vermin.", she declared as she knocked then down. Then Dash Boxer landed several more hits on the wound. "Ahhh! How dare you!"

It was at this point that the Dominion mothership descended from the sky, teleporting itself onto the Neo-Mutabrid's waste. This not only covered up the wound, but it allowed Algrin to control the Queen from his ship. "Algrin!", Uuhcura snarled. "What are you up to now?"

"Thanks to you, I know that my Neo-Mutabrid is the best it can be.", Algrin declared. "By covering up the flaws and putting you under my ownership, you'll be the best creature of combat in the universe." Algrin then had Uuhcura fire her mouth beam at the Ultrazord, knocking it down. Dash Boxer then jumped into the air to attack, only to be deflected. "That's enough of hat.", Algrin declared as he tossed the smaller robot aside.

"How are we supposed to beat that thing now?", asked Steven.

"Let's just try destroying her here and now.", Gliderak suggested. "We can take all our enemies out at once this way."

Mark thought for a moment about Oscar, but then decided. "For the greater good. Black Hole Crusher!"

The Ultrazord launched its usual finishing move at the enemy. "That won't work here.", Algrin declared. "Galvahex, raise the shields."

"Sir.", Oscar responded. A force field surrounded the Neo-Mutabrid's form as the beam hit.

"He deflected it.", Jangar said in shock.

"Now nothing can stop my ultimate weapon!", Algrin declared. "Nothing!" He then burst out laughing, being joined by Fwelf, but not Oscar.

"Algrin, you insolent!", Uuhcura's voice echoed. "Release me at once. I am your Queen."

"I think I've got an idea.", Mark suggested. "We need to separate if we want to defeat this thing. I'll take the Falcon and you guys stay in the Icarus and wait for my signal."

Mary was concerned by his choice. "What do you mean, on your own? You're not planning what I think you're planning."

"Relax.", Mark assured her. "I'll be back. But if I'm not, then I want you to look after Lulu for me. Hopefully it won't come to that." He then turned to Wayne. "Can I trust you to take over the Icarus' operation?"

"Last time you asked me that, I ended up breaking the thing.", Wayne replied. "But yeah, you can trust me."

Transfalcon!

Take Off! Go, Go!

The Icarus and Falcon Megazords now stood side by side. Mark was now piloting the Falcon, with Wayne taking over his usual seat in the Icarus and Gliderak in Wayne's regular seat.

"That won't help you.", Algrin declared. He then had Uuhcura fire into the ground, launching rocks and dust at the two robots.

The Icarus was hit by one rock, knocking off its left arm and causing it to fall over. Thankfully, no-one was rendered unconscious. "Why is it always my Swallow that gets broken off?", Lulu asked. "I demand compensation."

"I've already tried that, back when Kodokor smashed my Swan off.", Carrie replied. "They owe us nothing, apparently."

"Ladies, if we survive this, I'll give each of you a thousand dollars.", Jangar said, turning back into June Gordon. "Let's just hope your brother knows what he's doing, Lulu."

Mark had he Falcon jump into the air and used the Scratch Break function. He hit the ship part of the Neo-Mutabrid, knocking it off and causing it to crackle and explode.

Inside the ship, the three commanders were attacked by falling debris. "What's happening?", Algrin asked.

"The ship has been lost to the Rangers, My Lord.", Oscar replied. "I'm teleporting all essential life forms off before we get caught up."

A blue gleam surrounded both Algrin and Oscar, causing them to vanish. "Hey, what about me?", Fwelf yelled. Then, before he could find and use a teleporter of his own, he saw some debris falling towards him. And then nothing else.

"I am free!", Uuhcura declared. "Thank you, Mark Goodman."

"You're not welcome.", Mark replied. He then had the Falcon walk forward and grab Uuhcura, exposing her back. "Now, Wayne. Use the Icarus Saber."

The Icarus stood up. "So that's what you were planning, Goodman?", Wayne asked. Then he continued as ordered. "Well, if this is what ends this long conflict for Earth, then so be it." The Icarus summoned its weapon and stabbed Uuhcura in her wounded area.

In the Falcon, Mark was buffeted from sparks created by the Saber slashing through the Falcon's reactor. "Eject!", he called out as he was launched from the cockpit, landing on the ground.

"This is impossible!", Uuhcura cried, as she and the Falcon Corde were completely engulfed by the explosion.

In the Icarus cockpit, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "It's over.", Steven said. "It's finally over."

"Yes.", Gordon added. "Queen Uuhcura and her entire invasion party, have been wiped out."

Mary could only look down solemnly at this thought. "Oscar.", she whispered.

In another area near the city, Algrin and Galvahex pulled themselves up, with the former noting that he had reverted to his regular form. "I can't change back to my Berserker Mode for now.", he growled. "Until I've recovered enough energy, I'm stuck like this." Then he noticed the glaring absence. "Where's Fwelf? Didn't you say that all essential life forms would be teleported to safety?"

"There was a glitch, my Lord.", Galvahex lied. In reality, he no longer considered Fwelf essential since the dwarfish alien had found out about his secret fascination with humanity. "Luckily, it did not affect our supplies of Carrionoid younglings. We have enough Mutasects and Hybrasects to launch a small assault."

"Why settle for a small assault?", asked Algrin. "When I can use my power to give us enough for a full scale attack!"

Back in the regular quarry, everyone descended to the ground to find Mark lying down with his eyes closed. Carrie ran forward and checked his pulse. "He's fine. He'll wake up soon."

"That's a relief.", Gliderak commented. "Because I want a word with him about sacrificing our ship like that."

"Weren't you working on a new one with Gordon?", Mark asked, regaining consciousness.

"Forgive my partner, he's still trying to understand the concept of humour.", Aluze replied.

"Thank god for that.", Mark said in response. "Besides, we can always rebuild another Falcon Corde from the remains of the original."

"That is if we need to.", Wayne said. "We took out the Dominion commanders as well as their ship and Uuhcura."

"It's over, big bro.", Lulu added. "We won."

"I wouldn't celebrate just yet.", Mary suggested. "We still have a lot to rebuild, plus we have no idea if they really went down with the ship."

"Exactly.", Mark added. "We should get the Icarus and Dash Boxer back to base and then prepare for the worst. We don't know what might happen next."

In his new temporary base, Algrin observed the massive army of Bio-Roids he had spawned. "I may have given up my energy to birth this army. But it'll be worth it to defeat the Rangers."

"Lord Algrin, the Mutasects and Hybrasects have been released into the city of Winter Valley.", Oscar reported. "They should all have found host bodies by tomorrow."

"Yes, now our final battle begins."
