Kent, Jackie, Mackey, Buffy, Henry, Arno, and Mr. Dragdan are walking out of the school and toward a school bus, where other students are.
"This is gonna be an incredible field trip," Mackey says. "I have always wanted to check out Neutron City."
"It's too bad I can't go," Mr. Dragdan says. "But unfortunately I got work that Ms. Gema is on my case for.
Buffy turns to face Mr. Dragdan, "Work before play, Mr. Dragdan."
Mr. Dragdan smiles, as Buffy turns back, and then he waves while they get onto the school bus.
Onboard the bus, the unmorphed Rangers are walking toward the back, where Brittney is seated.
"I've been so excited for this field trip since it was announced," Brittney says. "I mean, Neutron City is the home of NG Bots."
Arno seats in front of Brittney, looking back to her, "What's a NG Bot?"
"NG Bots are short for Next-Generation Robots," Brittney starts, looking over to Arno. "They are highly advanced, human-like robots with cutting edge artificial intelligence."
"Oh… kay…" Arno responds, with Buffy, seated next to Brittney, holding back her laughter.
"You know, I also heard that Neutron City has its own superheroes," Mackey says, seating next to Henry.
Jackie, seated next to Kent, looks over to Mackey behind her, "Like the Power Rangers?"
Kent smiles and looks to Jackie, "But what are the chances we will run into them?"
The bus starts to drive away, as Mr. Dragdan reenters the school, and across the street, Mechanoid is watching it.
"Heroes Alliance"
The school bus is parked in front of a Nexus Technologies factory, with the students disembarking, after their teacher, Mr. Andrews.
A NG Bot, who resembles a man with a large, white earpiece on his head, approaches the group, "Welcome, students of Rimestone High School. I am Info, I will be your tour guide today."
"Is that a NT Bot?" Arno whispers to Henry.
"That NG Bot, Arno," Henry corrects.
"Please, right this way," Info says, as he starts to lead the group inside.
Info, walking backward to face the students, is leading the group through the factory which has a couple conveyor belts and large boxes, alongside NG Bot workers dotted around.
"This factory's purpose is the construction and packaging of several components in the design of Nexus Technologies products and resources," Info explains. "It is completely automated, with only NG Bot workers."
A male student raises his hand.
"Yes," Info motions a hand to the student.
"Are human workers being replaced?" he asks.
Info comes to a stop, with the group stopping in response, "Humans and NG Bots are meant to work together for a better future."
At that moment, Falco Rider, who is wearing mostly red armor with a Viral Transbelt, a mostly black device with silver, and a yellow lever on one side, and a large opening on the other side, lands on the rafter above the group's heads, "That's wrong." Everyone looks up at him. "NG Bots will free themselves from humans and replace them all."
Falco Rider jumps off the rafter and lands next to Info, before placing a Viral Encoder, a large gray mechanical device, with a rectangle-shaped hole in it, onto Info's waist, before a belt shoots out of one side and connects to the other side.
Info's eyes glow slightly.
Falco Rider holds up a keycard, or Virus Key, and inserts it into the Viral Encoder.
"Lizard Key! Corruption!"
Info surges with energy, with him flickering before his real grey and black NG Bot appearance is revealed, and then cables shoot out from the Viral Encoder and cover him. The cables start to retract, revealing mostly pink armor, with large blades on each shoulder.
"I am Lizbot. Ready to terminate."
A couple of security NG Bots run past the group, as the students and Mr. Andrews are backing up.
Lizbot holds out his arms, with cables shooting out and connects to the NG Bots, causing them to surge with energy, before a faceplate falls down over their heads, turning them into Corrupbots.
"Let's rock," Lizbot says, as the Corrupbots start to fire their blasters randomly around the factory.
"Everyone, outside, now!" Mr. Andrews instructs, as he and the students start to run out, unaware that the six unmorphed Rangers duck over to behind some machinery.
At the same time, a security camera focuses on Lizbot and Falco Rider.
The unmorphed Rangers hide behind the machinery in the corner.
"So much for this being a day off," Buffy says.
"I don't think they're Negadons," Arno says.
"We still need to stop them," Jackie says.
"Then," Kent takes a step forward. "It's Morphin' Time!"
They hold up their Dino Totems, flip them to Knight Mode, and insert them into their Knight Morphers and Mosa Blaster.
"Tyranno Totem!"
"Dino Knight, Visor Up!" they swing around their Knight Morphers' visors or turn the Mosa Blaster's barrel.
Kent morphs into Red Knight Ranger, Jackie morphs into Pink Knight Ranger, Mackey morphs into Blue Knight Ranger, Buffy morphs into Green Knight Ranger, Henry morphs into Black Knight Ranger, and Arno morphs into Gold Knight Ranger.
The Knight Rangers ready their Dino Blades, Mosa Blaster, and Mosa Sword.
"Let's show them how we do things in Rimestone City," Red Knight Ranger says, with his friends nodding their heads and heading out from behind the machinery.
The six Knight Rangers rush the Corrupbots. Red Knight Ranger uses his Dino Blade to knock away a Corrupbot's blaster and then strikes it. Blue Knight Ranger kicks away a Corrupbot, as Pink Knight Ranger pushes down a Corrupbot's blaster and strikes it. Green Knight Ranger rolls to a Corrupbot, strikes it on a knee, then spins and strikes another. Black Knight Ranger jumps onto a paused conveyor belt, strikes at a Corrupbot, before flips off and strikes another. Gold Knight Ranger jump kicks a Corrupbot as he blasts another with his Mosa Blaster.
"Wha?! Who are they?" Falco Rider asks, before he looks over to Lizbot, who just shrugs his shoulders.
Pink Knight Ranger roundhouse kicks a Corrupbot, before running ahead, as Albert, an African American man, and Ray, a red-haired man, enter and hurry over to behind some machinery.
"Whoa, there're Power Rangers here," Albert says, as he looks around the machinery. "I never met a Power Ranger before."
"Perhaps you can get their autographs after we saved the city," Ray mocking suggests.
"Right, right," Albert holds a Data Key, a keycard, in front of his belt buckle, which shifts and expands into the Zero-1 Transbelt, a mostly black device with a nearly green circle on the left side, with a silver arrow-like design in the center and a red arrow-like design on the ride side.
Ray holds a Data Key in front of his belt buckle, which shifts and expands into a TransBlaster, a blue and black blaster, with a slot on the back.
Albert holds his Data Key in front of the Zero-1 Transbelt, "Accessing."
Ray inserts a Data Key into his TransBlaster, "Accessing Wild Wolf."
A mechanical grasshopper lands in front of Albert, as he crosses his arms, "Access Code: Zero-1!"
Albert inserts the Data Key into his Transbelt, "Rising Hopper."
The grasshopper then turns into energy and flies onto Albert's body, as from glowing, blue energy a mostly black suit forms on him, with the grasshopper energy turns into yellow armor for the suit, and a black case appears in his right hand.
Ray, having removed his TransBlaster from his belt, aims it with both hands, "Access Code: Vulcan!"
He pulls the trigger, shooting out a wolf-head shaped projectile, before standing straight with his arms at the side. The projectile then flies back to him, as mostly a black suit form on Ray, before exploding into energy and flying onto him, forming blue and white armor.
Zero-1 Rider opens the case into a sword, the Case Sword, before he and Vulcan Rider run around the machinery.
As they rush to the fight, Vulcan Rider fires his TransBlaster, blasting a couple Corrupbots.
Pink Knight Ranger watches as a Corrupbot is blasted off its feet, "The local heroes, I'm guessing."
Green Knight Ranger strikes at a Corrupbot, before looking ahead, "I don't think they're pest control."
Vulcan Rider blasts a Corrupbot, before knocking away its blaster and then side kicks another. Zero-1 Rider jump kicks a Corrupbot, before horizontally strikes another Corrupbot.
"I need to report this," Falco Rider closes a fist, before looking at Lizbot. "Take care of this."
"You can count on me," Lizbot says, as Falco Rider turns and jumps away.
Zero-1 Rider strikes at a Corrupbot, as Red Knight Ranger back kicks him away.
"You know I gotta say, I'm a huge fan of Power Rangers," Zero-1 Rider says, as he blocks a Corrupbot's dagger.
"Oh really," Red Knight Ranger runs past and strikes at the Corrupbot.
"Yeah, but, which dino ones are you?" Zero-1 Rider asks.
Red Knight Ranger looks at him, "Hum, well…"
Suddenly, Lizbot jumps at them with two swords. Red Knight Ranger and Zero-1 Rider spin away, as Lizbot brings a sword down. Lizbot strikes with one sword, which Zero-1 Rider blocks, before Red Knight Ranger blocks Lizbot's other sword, they then push him back.
Lizbot pushes them off him, swings one sword, which Red Knight Ranger dodges, before swinging the other sword, as Zero-1 Rider jumps back to dodge. Zero-1 Rider then jumps ahead and kicks Lizbot, sending him flying backward.
Red Knight Ranger hurries over to Zero-1 Rider, "Wait. That is the tour guide NG Bot and the others are the guards."
"I don't like it either, but their memories and personalities have been saved and they will be restored," Zero-1 Rider says.
"You are acting like you can beat me," Lizbot says, as he returns to his feet.
Gold Knight Ranger and Vulcan Rider step up and fire, blasting the remaining Corrupbots, who are consumed in a large explosion.
Zero-1 Rider inserts a Data Key into the Case Saber, "Accessing Rising Hopper."
Red Knight Ranger inserts a Dino Totem into his Dino Blade and closes the mouth a couple times, "Tyranno Totem!"
Lizbot jumps at the two, as Red Knight Ranger and Zero-1 Rider strike at him, as he passes.
"Rider Strike!"
"Tyranno Slash!"
Lizbot falls past the two, before he is consumed in a large explosion.
Red Knight Ranger runs to the other Rangers.
"Good job," Pink Knight Ranger says.
"It's too bad about Info and the others," Blue Knight Ranger says.
"According to our new friends, they're gonna be okay," Red Knight Ranger says.
Zero-1 Rider starts to take a step forward, with Vulcan Rider grabs him by the arm and starts to pull him away, "C'mon, fanboy Rider."
"That's good to hear," Black Knight Ranger says.
Green Knight Ranger looks past her friends, "Speaking of which." The other Knight Rangers turn to see no one there. "They're gone."
"Why did they leave so quickly?" Pink Knight Ranger asks.
"Perhaps they have secret identity responsibilities?" Blue Knight Ranger suggests.
"And speaking of that," Red Knight Ranger turns to his friends. "We should hurry and rejoin our class, before we are missed."
The six Knight Rangers hurry out.
Albert and Ray are walking through a messy medium-sized labroom toward a computer setup, where Lucy, a Hispanic woman with long black hair, is seated and typing.
"I still think we should've talked with the Rangers," Albert says. "They could be powerful allies."
"You are just being a fanboy," Ray tells him.
"That's not… entirely true," Albert claims.
"Unfortunately, we have bigger concerns to discuss," Lucy says, before she turns to her friends. "Like, why did Tye attack a Nexus Technologies factory?"
"Especially since we realized he and Stinger Rider are capable of building their own NG Bots," Ray adds.
"Perhaps they are unable to build them fast enough?" Albert suggests.
Ray crosses his arms, "Somehow I doubt it's that simple."
Mechanoid approaches a factory building, looking up at it, "Analysis: completed. Observation: this has what I seek."
At the same time, on a nearby building, Stinger Rider, who is clad in purple and silver armor, with a Viral Transbelt, is watching Mechanoid.
Then Falco Rider lands several feet behind Stinger Rider and approaches, "The attack on the factory failed. But only because of six multi-colored strangers."
Stinger Rider continues to look down, "They aren't the only strangers to have arrived."
Falco Rider looks down and sees Mechanoid.
Mechanoid is walking through the empty factory, which setup is similar to the other one.
"Observation," Mechanoid starts. "My creator had been destroyed. His maintenance is no longer possible. Conclusion: I must improve myself. I mustn't become obsolete."
Mechanoid comes to a stop and sees a computer, with cables hooked up to an orb-like device on a podium, "Detection: the Prototype Core."
At a local hotel's lunch room, several tables have students and Mr. Andrews seating and eating, with the six unmorphed Rangers and Brittney seating at one table together.
"What's the Prototype Core?" Buffy asks.
"I heard about it at my internship," Brittney starts. "Apparently it was used in the early development of NG Bots, but it proved to be too volatile."
Lucy turns away from her computer to face her friends, "After studying the energy readings that were given off by Proto Rider, Nexus Technologies' secret prisoner and the apparent source of the Rider tech, I realized that the same energy levels were used for the Prototype Core."
Lucy turns back to her computer, "Which must be why it was so volatile."
Albert places a hand to his chin, "Then the attack on the factory might've been a smokescreen for stealing the Prototype Core."
"But obviously it's not at the factory that was targeted," Ray says.
Albert looks over to him, "Then where could it be?"
Mechanoid is attaching the Prototype Core, now in a harness, onto his chest, when he hears something and turns to see Stinger Rider and Falco Rider approaching him.
"The installment can be tricky," Stinger Rider says.
Mechanoid looks up and down at the two, "Observation: I have seen you two from news files."
"And I can tell your tech, while might not be human, isn't alien either," Stinger Rider comments.
"Is there really such a thing as aliens?" Falco Rider asks.
"You would be surprised," Stinger Rider says to him.
"Query: What do you want?" Mechanoid asks.
"A partnership of sorts," Stinger Rider says, as Mechanoid watches him closely. "You see, I require a power source for an upcoming project. While I'm working on multiple options, the Prototype Core could be just what I want."
Mechanoid looks at the Prototype Core, half attached to him, with one hand on it to keep it secure.
"Your usage of it is the type of experiment I hope to perform to test its viability," Stinger Rider continues. "I helped you install it, you get to upgrade yourself, and I get my test. A mutually beneficial partnership."
Mechanoid looks at Stinger Rider, "Agreement met. I am ready for installation."
"Excellent, let's get to work then," Stinger Rider says, before he nods his head at Falco Rider.
Falco Rider turns and walks away.
Back at her lab, Lucy is typing at her computer, "There's a couple of places where the Prototype Core could be hidden."
"Perhaps there's a second underground floor under Nexus Technologies," Albert jokes. "A Level negative one, maybe?"
Ray slowly shakes his head.
"Wait, I got a notification," Lucy stops typing, before turning to her friends. "I think we got the location."
Back at the hotel lunchroom, the unmorphed Rangers and Brittney are placing their trays on top of a pair of trash cans.
"Are we supposed to get a tour of the main headquarters tomorrow?" Mackey asks.
"Look," Arno points at a mounted TV screen, which is showing a female NG Bot.
"I am Scoop, NG Bot for Neutron City Daily News, and it would seem that a group of corrupted NG Bots are placing themselves outside a Nexus Technologies factory."
The tv screen now shows the front of the building where standing is Batbot, who is covered in silver and purple armor, with a bat-like head and large wings on his back; Mantisbot, who has green and silver armor, a pair of large, scythe-like daggers in both hands, and a large mantis-like head; Drillbot, who has large spiky drills on both hands, and a matching large drill on top of his head.
"This is just a couple hours after an attack on another factory…" Scoop continues.
Kent looks over to the other unmorphed Rangers and nods his head.
Kent then places a hand on his stomach, "Oh, I don't feel so well."
"Yeah, me neither," Jackie steady herself on the trash can.
"I don't think I ever feel this lousy," Henry adds.
"Really? All of you?" Brittney asks, as she looks over her friends.
"Yeah, huh, Brittney, mind telling Mr. Andrews we were sick and went back to our hotel rooms?" Kent asks.
"Sure thing," Brittney says, before she watches her friends hurry away. "I hope it wasn't something they ate." She turns to look at the empty trays. "We ate the same thing…"
Outside the factory, the unmorphed Rangers arrive behind a corner across the street, as Albert, Lucy, and Ray arrive around a building further down the street.
"So anyone else missing the Knightrons?" Buffy asks, as she looks around the corner, before turning to her friends.
"Let's get to it," Arno says.
"It's Morphin' Time!" Kent says.
The six unmorphed Rangers insert their Dino Totems into their Knight Morphers or Mosa Blaster.
"Tyranno Totem!"
Albert inserts a Data Key into his Zero-1 Transbelt, "Accessing Rising Hopper."
Ray inserts a Data Key into his TransBlaster, "Accessing Wild Wolf."
Lucy inserts a Data Key into her TransBlaster, "Accessing Rushing Cheetah."
The unmorphed Rangers swing around their Knight Morphers' visors or turn Mosa Blaster's head, "Dino Knight, Visor Up!"
Kent morphs into Red Knight Ranger, Jackie morphs into Pink Knight Ranger, Mackey morphs into Blue Knight Ranger, Buffy morphs into Green Knight Ranger, Henry morphs into Black Knight Ranger, and Arno morphs into Gold Knight Ranger.
"Access Code: Zero-1!"
"Access Code: Vulcan!"
"Access Code: Valkyrie!"
The mechanical grasshopper jumps at Albert, turns into energy and forms his Zero-1 Rider armor, as Ray and Lucy fire wolf head and cheetah head shaped projectiles, which fly back onto them, turns into energy and form Ray's Vulcan Rider armor and Lucy's brown and white Valkyrie Rider armor.
The six Knight Rangers flip through the air and land several feet away from the corrupted NG Bots, as Zero-1 Rider, Vulcan Rider, and Valkyrie Rider run over.
"What the?" Vulcan Rider notices the Knight Rangers. "Are you guys moving here or something?"
"No, that's not it," Pink Knight Ranger says.
"Just consider us to be some passing through Rangers," Green Knight Ranger says.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Vulcan Rider asks, tilting his head.
"C'mon, this is okay, we can use some help," Zero-1 Rider walks over to next to Vulcan Rider.
"You just want to fulfill a superhero teamup fantasy or something," Vulcan Rider tells Zero-1 Rider.
At the same time, Batbot tilts his head, as Mantisbot looks over to Drillbot, who just shrugs his shoulders.
Valkyrie Rider presses a hand to the side of her helmet, before looking over to the others, "We're gonna have to discuss this later. Right now, I'm detecting a rising power level within the factory."
"It must be the Prototype Core," Zero-1 Rider realizes.
"Go on, we'll handle these oversized paper weights," Vulcan Rider says to Zero-1 Rider.
"Right," Zero-1 Rider nods his head.
"I'll go too," Red Knight Ranger says, with Zero-1 Rider turning to him. "You could use the help, right?"
"I appreciate it," Zero-1 Rider says.
"Be careful," Pink Knight Ranger says.
Red Knight Ranger looks to his friends and nods his head.
"Okay, just go," Vulcan Rider says, before he and Valkyrie Rider fire their TransBlasters and Gold Knight Ranger fires his Mosa Blaster.
Red Knight Ranger and Zero-1 Rider run ahead, as Mantisbot and Drillbot use their scythes and drill arms to block the blasts, before Red Knight Ranger and Zero-1 Rider flip over their heads.
"Now to see what you Rangers can do," Vulcan Rider says, as the Knight Rangers ready their Dino Blades and Mosa Sword.
"Back at ya," Black Knight Ranger says.
The five Knight Rangers, Vulcan Rider and Valkyrie Rider run ahead.
Drillbot shoves ahead his drill arms, with Pink and Black Knight Rangers use their Dino Blades to block them, before he pushes them back a couple steps. Then Green Knight Ranger flips over Drillbot's head and strikes at his back, forcing Drillbot ahead, past her friends. Drillbot spins around, striking at Pink and Black Knight Ranger, with Green Knight Ranger sidekicks Drillbot in the chest.
Mantisbot strikes down with his scythes, with Blue Knight Ranger blocks with his Dino Blade, trying to hold him back. Mantisbot continues to force his scythes down, when Valkyrie Rider runs up, jumps off Blue Knight Ranger's shoulder, over Mantisbot and blasts him in the back. Blue Knight Ranger pulls his Dino Blade free, strikes Mantisbot, and back kicks him. Valkyrie Rider continues to blast Mantisbot.
Batbot flies ahead, firing blasts from his hands. Gold Knight Ranger jumps back, dodging the blasts, as Vulcan Rider rolls to the side and sees Batbot flying past him. Vulcan Rider then jumps up, kicks off Batbot's back, knocking him onto the ground. Gold Knight Ranger lands, then jumps ahead, as Batbot returns to his feet, and strikes him with the Mosa Sword. Batbot turns to see Gold Knight Ranger and Vulcan Rider kick him, sending him flying back as they blast him.
Inside the factory, Mechanoid is lying on a table, with the harness connected to his chest, as Stinger Rider takes a step back.
"There, it's done," Stinger Rider says.
"So are you, Stinger Rider."
Stinger Rider turns to see Zero-1 Rider with Red Knight Ranger.
"Zero-1, I see you also made a new friend," Stinger Rider says.
"You don't know what you are doing," Red Knight Ranger starts. "Mechanoid dangerous."
"So am I," Stinger Rider responds.
Stinger Rider charges and punches Red Knight Ranger in the chest, knocking him back. Zero-1 Rider grabs Stinger Rider's shoulder, but he spins around, releasing Zero-1 Rider's hold, before kicking him and then roundhouse kicks him.
"The last time we fought, you got lucky, Zero-1," Stinger Rider tells him. "History won't repeat itself."
"Good thing he's not alone then," Red Knight Ranger says, before he charges ahead.
Red Knight Ranger strikes with the Dino Blade, but Stinger Rider spins away and holds up the Case Bow, a mostly purple bow, to block another strike. Zero-1 Rider rushes ahead, kicks Stinger Rider in the side. Stinger Rider spins around, keeping the two back with the Case Bow, before jumping back to dodge Red Knight Ranger's Dino Blade strike.
Stinger Rider then looks over his shoulder to see Mechanoid getting up, "Mechanoid, perfect timing."
"Prototype Core integrated with my systems," Mechanoid says, as he gets off the table.
"And I got the perfect opportunity for target practice," Stinger Rider says, before backing away.
"This is not over, Stinger Rider!" Zero-1 Rider calls out.
Stinger Rider turns away and waves a hand, "We'll see about that."
"Mechanoid, listen to me, this Prototype Core is dangerous," Red Knight Ranger says.
"Observation: it is dangerous, to you," Mechanoid says, before he charges ahead.
Zero-1 Rider barely moves out of the way, as Mechanoid charges at Red Knight Ranger, who barely holds him back with the Dino Blade.
"I'm two for two on that," Red Knight Ranger says, before he is bashed against a column.
Mechanoid knocks the Dino Blade out of Red Knight Ranger's hand, before punches at the column, with the Ranger dodging out of the way. Then Zero-1 Rider strikes at Mechanoid's back with the Case Blade, but Mechanoid spins around, knocking away the Case Blade.
"Cannon Blast!" Mechanoid fires his cannons, blasting Zero-1 Rider back against a conveyor belt.
"Are you okay?" Red Knight Ranger says, as he walks over to help Zero-1 Rider to his feet.
"I think so," Zero-1 Rider says, as he returns to his feet.
Red Knight Ranger turns to look at Mechanoid, as he slowly approaches them, "He was tough before. Unless that core thing has a build in Achelle's Heel, we could be in trouble…"
"Wait, it does," Zero-1 Rider says, with Red Knight Ranger turning to him. "The Prototype Core had an overheating problem. We just need to push Mechanoid to his limit."
"Oh," Red Knight Ranger nods his head, before looking back to Mechanoid. "We can do that."
Drillbot stabs one drill arm into the ground, sending explosions across it.
Black Knight Ranger runs ahead, with an Armor Guard, holds up his arm, "Archelon Solid Guard!"
The explosions are blocked by a diamond wall which shatters.
Green Knight Ranger, with an Armor Guard, then speeds past her friend and to behind Drillbot, "Microraptor Fast Guard!"
Green Knight Ranger strikes at Drillbot's back, sending him flying forward and towards Pink Knight Ranger, with an Armor Guard.
"Raui Power Guard!" Pink Knight Ranger strikes at the flying Drillbot, who lands behind her and is consumed in a large explosion.
"Pachy Stone Armor, Armor Up!" Blue Knight Ranger, in the Pachy Stone Armor, slams his fists together.
"Accessing Power Kong."
Vulcan Rider, wearing mostly black armor with large fists over his hands, holds up his TransBlaster.
"Spino Shock Armor, Armor Up!" Gold Knight Ranger, in the Spino Shock Armor, holds up the Mosa Cannon.
"Accessing Lightning Hornet."
Valkyrie Rider, wearing mostly yellow and white armor with hexagon patterns, holds up her TransBlaster.
Batbot flies ahead, with Blue Knight Ranger jumps ahead and punches him in the chest, sending him falling back onto the ground. Batbot rolls back onto his feet, before Vulcan Rider runs up and punches him twice, forcing him over to Blue Knight Ranger, who punches him several times, then giving a powerful punch, sending Batbot flying backward.
Vulcan Rider aims his TransBlaster, "Rider Fist Blast!"
He pulls the trigger, sending his fists flying, which collides with the airborne Batbot, who is consumed in an explosion.
Valkyrie Rider, holding her TransBlaster, blocks Mantisbot's scythe and holds it down, as Gold Knight Ranger comes over and jump kicks him.
Valkyrie Rider spins around and holds out her arms, as hornet-like drones fly out of the hexagon patterns on her armor, "Hornet Swarm!"
The drones fly at Mantisbot, blasting him as they fly past him. Then Gold Knight Ranger and Valkyrie Rider stand side by side, aiming their Mosa Cannon and TransBlaster
"Spino Cannon Blast!"
"Rider Stinger Blast!"
Gold Knight Ranger fires a blast of electricity, as Valkyrie Rider fires a hornet-like blast, both hitting Mantisbot, who is consumed in a large explosion.
"Red Maxsaur Ranger!" Red Maxsaur Ranger holds up his Dino Blade.
"Accessing Shining Hopper."
Zero-1 Rider, now in a mostly black suit with yellow lines and yellow leg-like appendages over his torso, holds up his hands.
"Observation: I will not lose," Mechanoid says.
"Observation: yes, you will," Zero-1 Rider says, before he and Red Maxsaur Ranger run over.
Red Maxsaur Ranger strikes with the Dino Blade, but Mechanoid catches it, with Red Maxsaur Ranger pulling him over. Red Maxsaur Ranger pulls his Dino Blade free and strikes him with the Max Battle Claw. Zero-1 Rider then speeds over, punches Mechanoid in the shoulder, speeds away before Mechanoid could backhands him, then Zero-1 Rider speeds over to Mechanoid's other side and kicks him in the side.
"Huh, and I thought the Microraptor Totem was fast," Red Maxsaur Ranger says.
Red Maxsaur Ranger strikes at Mechanoid with the Dino Blade, then punches him with the Max Battle Claw. Zero-1 Rider then spins over and roundhouse kicks Mechanoid. Then Red Maxsaur Ranger and Zero-1 Rider sidekicks Mechanoid.
Mechanoid takes a couple steps back, looking at his hands, "Observation: reaching beyond normal temperature levels. Must begin cooling."
"Not gonna happen," Red Maxsaur Ranger says.
"Follow my lead," Zero-1 Rider says to him.
"When in Rome," Red Maxsaur Ranger says.
Zero-1 Rider and Red Maxsaur Ranger jump up, before they perform jump kicks.
"Rider Shining Kick!" Zero-1 Rider calls out, as they glow with energy.
They double jump kick Mechanoid, knocking him back and up against a column, with explosions going off around Mechanoid.
Zero-1 Rider and Red Knight Ranger, back in their base forms, land as explosions continue to go off.
"Save to say it's overheating," Red Knight Ranger says.
"Time to go," Zero-1 Rider says.
"Right," Red Knight Ranger turns and holds up his Knight Morpher. "Dino Force Cycle!"
Zero-1 Rider presses the motorcycle icon on his R-Phone, "Accessing Cell Cycle."
More explosions go off throughout the factory, before Red Knight Ranger, on his Dino Force Cycle, and Zero-1 Rider, on his green and black Cell Cycle, drive through the explosions and smoke.
The other Knight Rangers, Vulcan Rider, and Valkyrie Rider stand outside the factory, as explosions go off through the building. After a few more seconds, Red Knight Ranger and Zero-1 Rider come riding out.
"You okay," Pink Knight Ranger says.
"Were there any doubts?" Red Knight Ranger dismounts his Dino Force Cycle.
"Not bad," Vulcan Rider says to Zero-1 Rider.
"Thanks," Zero-1 Rider nods his head, before turning to the Knight Rangers. "Thanks a lot for the help."
"It's the least we could do, since Mechanoid's normally our problem," Red Knight Ranger places a hand to his chest.
"Well, you guys are welcome back to Neutron City whenever you want," Zero-1 Rider says.
Zero-1 Rider offers a handshake, which Red Knight Ranger accepts and they shake hands.
Later on, Stinger Rider and Falco Rider are walking through the badly damaged remains of the factory. Stinger Rider is looking side to side.
"Was it really necessary for me to make that anonymous call to the news channels?" Falco Rider asks.
"The best test for the Prototype Core was against some wannabe heroes," Stinger Rider tells him, without looking at him, then continues onward.
Falco Rider stops and looks to the side, "And it ended up being for nothing. Both the Prototype Core and Mechanoid were destroyed."
Stinger Rider stops walking and looks ahead, "It's premature to think so, my friend."
Falco Rider hurries ahead and sees a damaged Mechanoid lying on the ground.
"We still have a lot to do," Stinger Rider adds, as they watch Mechanoid.
