Shroomie is walking through the forest, slowly and slightly kicking the ground, "Soooo bored. There's never any good negativity around…"
Shroomie starts to walk by a tree, when he double takes and sees a large clearing, where a group of Skullvors are around a large, metallic cannon. A couple Skullvors place a paneling onto the side of the cannon, as another Skullvor is attaching a control stick into the back of the cannon.
Hiding behind the tree, Shroomie tilts his head, "What are they… And what they are doing?"
"And what are you doing?"
Shroomie turns to see Domehead, a monster with a white fur covered right arm, a yellow armored left arm, a green right leg with tusks on it, a blue scaly left leg, a mostly red torso with a glass dome over a skull-like head, and six safes, three across his chest and three across his back.
"Wh-Who are you?!" Shroomie scaredly asks.
"I am Domehead," he says, before leaning in closer. "Now, as for my question…"
"An Omega Solution, pt. 1"
A silver glow materializes on top of a hill, as four people appear, their faces obscured by the bright sun in the sky.
"Are you sure about this?" One of the people asks.
A second person holds up a scanning device, presses a couple buttons on it, "I am detecting energy signals I hadn't detected for almost a year."
"Should we contact them for support?" A third person asks.
"They are still currently civilians," the first person says.
"Besides, we aren't even in their city," the fourth person, a girl, adds.
"I got something," the person with the scanner suddenly says. "I'm picking up another strong energy signal."
"You are? Where?" the first person asks.
"This way," the person with the scanner starts to lead the others down the hill.
Jackie, Mackey, Henry, and Buffy are walking through the park.
"So Kent isn't joining us today?" Buffy asks.
"He's training with Tyranno Zord," Mackey says.
"Yeah, he wanted to avoid it following him to school again," Jackie says, with a small laugh.
"And of course Arno is helping Mr. Dragdan inventory the Round Base," Henry says.
"Perhaps we should go and help them," Mackey suggests.
Suddenly, a person, Sonya, walks up to them, "Excuse me, have you seen a pair of keys?"
"A pair of keys?" Henry repeats.
"Yeah," Sonya says, before holding up a picture of a pair of keys with a heart shaped keychain. "These ones."
"You could try the park's lost and found," Mackey says.
Sonya sighs, holding down the picture, "Their owner already tried that."
At that moment, Simon walks over to them, "Hey, Sonya, any luck?"
"No sight of them so far," Sonya responds.
"What's exactly going on?" Henry asks.
"You see, the keys' owners were visiting some family in Rimestone City,'' Sonya starts. "But when she returned to Golden City, she realized she lost her keys, so she hired us to come and find them."
"So you're key finders," Buffy says, with a grin.
"No, we're detectives," Simon says.
"Why doesn't the owner just get new keys and change her locks?" Mackey asks.
"She already did that too," Sonya says. "But she's actually concerned about the keychain. It was a gift from her parents."
"Too bad she lost something like that," Jackie says.
Simon turns away, looking around, "I wonder if he has any better luck."
Jackie tilts slightly to him, "Who?"
Shroomie is thrown onto the Darkness Caverns' floor, in front of the Queen, Wizar, and Mechanoid.
"And what do we have here?" the Queen asks, as Shroomie returns to his feet.
Domehead enters the Darkness Caverns, looking around, "So, you're the Negadons?"
"Analysis: intruder," Mechanoid says, as he walks forward. "Command: you must be removed."
"What he said," Wizar walks forward, while the Queen watches.
"Don't make me laugh," Domehead says.
Mechanoid punches forward, with Domehead arm swipes it away and punches Mechanoid in the chest, forcing him back a couple steps. Domehead spins around, before striking Mechanoid with a long spear. Wizar rushes ahead and strikes with his wand, but Domehead blocks with his spear, turns around the weapon, strikes Wizar in the chest, before spins and strikes him again.
Wizar is forced back, next to Mechanoid.
"That's enough!"
Wizar and Mechanoid turn to see the Queen approaching them.
"Tell me, what do you want, stranger?" the Queenasks.
Domehead holds down his spear, "I'm seeking a powerful energy source, which could demolish anyone in my path."
"You are surely an honest one, are you?" the Queen comments. "Very well, I shall give you aid."
Wizar and Mechanoid look at each other, surprised.
"Mhm, and you do seem to possess a high quantity of negativity," the Queen continues. "Shroomie."
"Right, right," Shroomie walks up, past Wizar and Mechanoid, before standing next to the Queen and holds a finger at Domehead. "Monster Make Slime, go."
A drop of slime shoots from Shroomie's finger and hits Domehead, who glows for a moment, before rising up from slime is Slashur, a large monster with a mostly silver body with a large mouth and two blades for arms.
"And what's this?" Domehead asks.
"I am Slashur," he turns to face Domehead. "If you have a need for some cutting, then I'm your monster."
Domehead slowly nods, "I guess he will do."
"And if you need anymore help, don't hesitate to call on me," the Queen says.
Domehead looks at the Queen, before turning to leave, "Let's go."
Slashur starts to follow Domehead through the caverns.
"My Queen," Wizar approaches her. "Why are you helping such a creature?"
"He could be a fun distraction, and his own negative energies could be itself a powerful energy source," the Queen says, before crossing her arms. "Although I do sense something powerful within his safes. I wonder…"
Red Knight Ranger flips through the air, jumps off the ground and then flips over the small miniature Tyranno Zord, as it swings its tail.
Red Knight Ranger lands and turns, as his body becomes covered in a red glow, demorphing to Kent, before walking over to Tyranno Zord, "Great training session, Tyranno."
Tyranno Zord roars at Kent, as he places a hand on the Zord's hand.
"But now I need to go and meet up with the others," Kent says, before he starts to walk past Tyranno Zord. "Check ya', later."
Tyranno Zord roars at the departing Kent, unaware that watching them is Slashur behind a couple trees.
Jackie, Mackey, Buffy, Henry, Sonya, and Simon are walking through the park, when they stop to see Britt kneeling on the ground, while digging into a small hole with one hand.
"What the?" Jackie asks.
"Britt, what are you doing?" Sonya asks, as the group walks over.
"You know him?" Mackey asks Simon.
"He's our friend, we split up to find the keys," Simon responds.
"And… I found… them," Britt says, before finally pulling up a pair of keys, holding them up. "I figured they were dropped, got caught in a hole, before being stepped on and pushed further in."
Sonya takes the keys from Britt, "We might want to clean them up before returning them."
Britt smiles and looks back at the hole, "Hold on, I think there something else here."
Britt digs his hand back into the hole, as the others watch him
"Got them," Britt says, as he starts to stand up.
"Got what?" Sonya asks.
"I'm… not sure," Britt shows in his hands are three silver Dino Totems, covered in dirt.
"Blank Dino Totems?" Mackey realizes, as he and the other unmorphed Knight Rangers look at each other.
Kent is walking through the woods, before doing a little shadow boxing, then continuing to walk, when suddenly, he hears a loud roar.
Kent turns, "Tyranno?"
Kent runs ahead and reaches the top of a hill to look down.
Tyranno Zord falls down onto the ground, with long rope wrapped around its torso and head.
"I got you, my little dino," Slashur lowers his arms.
Kent holds up his Knight Morpher, "Everyone. Tyranno Zord in trouble, get here as fast as possible."
Kent then runs ahead, while holding up a Dino Totem in Knight Mode.
"We're on our way," Mackey says to his Knight Morpher, before he turns to see Jackie in front of Britt, Sonya, and Simon.
"Sorry, but we have to go and help out our friends," Jackie says.
Jackie turns and starts to run with Mackey, Buffy, and Henry.
Simon shrugs his shoulders, "Well, that seemed very familiar."
Sonya grins, "Yeah, right. What are the chances they're Power Rangers?"
"Yeah, what are the chances…?" Britt says, as he holds a hand to his chin and then looks ahead.
Red Knight Ranger jumps at Slashur with his Dino Blade aimed, "Get away from him!"
Slashur dodges Red Knight Ranger's Dino Blade strike, before they turn, with Slashur using an arm to block another Dino Blade Strike. Red Knight Ranger pushes away the arm and tries another strike, but Slashur blocks it, forcing Red Knight Ranger to the side. Red Knight Ranger runs over to a pile of chopped woods, flips over them, as Slashur runs after him.
Now on opposite sides of the chopped woods, Slashur blocks a couple more Dino Blade strikes.
Domehead walks over, holding his spear, "I was wondering what is taking you so long."
"Who you?" Red Knight Ranger is holding down Slashur's arm.
"He's my boss," Slashur pushes up his arm, before shoulder charges Red Knight Ranger.
Pink, Blue, Black, and Green Knight Rangers flip through the air.
Red Knight Ranger rolls across the ground, as the other Knight Rangers land next to him.
"Who's the guy with the dome head?" Pink Knight Ranger asks, as Red Knight Ranger gets onto his knee.
"That's exactly who I am, Domehead," Domehead says, as he turns around.
"What's he doing?" Green Knight Ranger tilts her head.
Domehead's central front safe opens, "And this Zord's power will sufficient."
Domehead presses the top of his spear on Tyranno Zord, who glows red, before shrinking to palm size and flies into Domehead's central front safe, which then closes.
"Tyranno!" Red Knight Ranger runs ahead.
"Your 'Tyranno' is now mine," Domehead turns and strikes with his spear.
Red Knight Ranger avoids the attack and grabs the spear, "He's not anyone's. Release him!"
Red Knight Ranger pulls the spear from Domehead's hand, and then grabs onto the central front safe, "C'mon, open!"
"Fool. That'll accomplish nothing!" Domehead punches Red Knight Ranger, knocks him back, freeing his spear and then stabs forward, sending Red Knight Ranger flying backward.
Red Knight Ranger lands next to the other Rangers, with Pink Knight Ranger kneeling next to him, "Kent."
Black Knight Ranger holds up a Dino Totem, flips it to Knight Mode and inserts it into his Dino Blade, "Iguanodon Totem!"
An Armor Guard appears on Black Knight Ranger, before his visor glows.
Black Knight Ranger looks at Domehead closely, before seeing Tyranno Zord, roaring, inside his central front safe, "I can see Tyranno Zord. He seems unharmed." He then sees Dimetro Zord in the right front safe and Pachy Zord in the left front safe. "Wait, he also has Dimetro Zord and Pachy Zord."
"Not just them," Domehead turns around.
Black Knight Ranger then sees the Frost Egg in the right back safe and Mosa Zord in the left back safe, "As well as Ptera Zord and Mosa Zord."
"These Zords will do as power ups, for now," Domehead says, as he starts to walk past Slashur.
"Our Zords aren't your power ups," Pink Knight Ranger says, as the five Knight Rangers charge ahead.
Domehead turns, "I'm lacking the patient for this."
Domehead's right front safe glows, as flaming energy flies from it and to above Domehead, forming Dimetro Zord from energy. Domehead then strikes with his spear, sending a flaming energy slash at the five charging Knight Rangers, before sending another energy slash, forcing them off their feet.
"What was that?!" Green Knight Ranger says, as she and her friends try to get up.
"It was Dimetro Zord's attack," Blue Knight Ranger realizes.
"The one good thing about this distraction, I get to test my new attacks," Domehead says. "And soon, I will have power that'll eclipse the most powerful of Zords."
"You will not get anymore power, and you will not keep our Zords," Red Knight Ranger clenches his fist, before charging.
Domehead's left front safe glows, with energy flies from it and forms Pachy Zord behind him, before he starts to strike with his spear.
Red Knight Ranger runs ahead and strikes with his Dino Blade.
Domehead strikes with the spear, sending Red Knight Ranger flying backward and lands hard next to his friends.
"He's too powerful with our Zords," Black Knight Ranger says, as Pink and Blue Knight Rangers help Red Knight Ranger to his feet.
"And he wanted to get even more powerful," Green Knight Ranger adds.
"Well done, I would clap, if I have hands," Slashur says.
"This is enough," Domehead says. "Finish them, Slashur."
"Once I'm done, there won't be enough to fill a bread box," Slashur starts to approach the Rangers.
Suddenly, someone speeds past Slashur, knocking him back slightly, before they speed to in front of the Knight Rangers, revealing himself to be Bari.
"Where did he come from?" Green Knight Ranger asks.
Then Nella and Gavin flip over the Rangers' heads and jump kick Domehead and Slashur, forcing them back.
"I don't know who you think you are…" Domehead starts.
"We're officers of the Space Police," Bari interrupts.
"Space Police?" Blue Knight Ranger responds. "Is that really real?"
"You bet it is," Zeke walks up to the Knight Rangers, to their surprise.
"The Space Police," Domehead says. "I'm not ready for this. Get us out of here, Slashur."
"I prefer to cut loose, but okay," Slashur steps in front of Domehead, before a checker field appears over them and they disappears.
"No!" Red Knight Ranger calls out, as he and his friends run past Bari, Nella, and Gavin.
The Knight Rangers look around.
"They're gone," Blue Knight Ranger says.
Pink Knight Ranger places a hand on Red Knight Ranger's shoulder, "Don't worry. We'll find them."
"Are you okay?" Nella asks the Rangers.
"Yeah, we're just going through something," Pink Knight Ranger turns back, as the five Knight Rangers are covered in bright glows, demorphing.
"What? You are… kids?" Bari realizes.
"Teenagers, technically," Buffy says. "Eighteen, to be precise."
"There are only five of you," Gavin comments.
"I think she meant their ages, Gavin," Nella tells him.
Zeke holds up his scanner device, pressing a button, "Mhm, whatever are in Domehead's safes seemed to be what I was tracking…"
"It was our Zords," Kent says.
"Domehead has your Zords?" Gavin realizes.
Zeke crosses his arms, "Interesting."
At that moment, Gold Knight Ranger arrives on top of a hill, looking down at the scene, "What did I miss?"
Britt, Sonya, and Simon are walking through the forest, with Britt looking around as he brushes a tree branch out of his way.
Sonya sighs, "We found the keys, and spent forty minutes washing them, so we should just head back to Golden City already."
"C'mon, you're as curious about the rumored monsters being seen in the forest," Britt says.
"It's not like we can do anything about it," Sonya starts. "Remember, we're powerless."
Simon stops and looks to the side, "Hey, guys, do you hear that?"
Britt then leads his friends over to the side and ducks behind a couple trees, where they see a large chrome cannon, with a couple Skullvors and Knightrons around it, including a Skullvor carrying a small beam over to the cannon and a Knightron attaches a panel to the back of the cannon.
"It Skullvors and… whatever those are," Sonya whispers.
"And they're building a cannon?" Britt whispers. "But what the target."
At that moment, Domehead and Slashur walk over to the cannon.
"Excellent, it will be done soon," Domehead says.
"That's great, but what's it for?" Slashur asks.
"That can wait, first, we should deal with our intruders," Domehead turns around, with Britt, Sonya, and Simon nearly jumping back.
"This is not good," Britt says.
"You can say that again," Domehead says, as Skullvors and Knightrons run past him.
Britt looks around as he and his friends are surrounded by Skullvors and Knightrons, "This is not good."
In the Round Base, Bari, Nella and Gavin are looking around, with the unmorphed Knight Rangers watching them.
"Is this typical of all Earth education facilities?" Gavin asks.
"Having a secret, underground base? I don't think so, Gavin," Nella responds.
"It's definitely different from the junkyard," Bari adds, as Buffy looks at Henry and shrugs her shoulders.
"I still don't understand," Mr. Dragdan says, with Zeke standing next to him, while looking at his scanner. "What would this Domehead want with the Rangers' Zords?"
"I wish I know," Zeke starts. "From our sources, it would seem Domehead seeks power to take over Chainlord's territory, and surpass him in reputation, but while your Zords' energies are immense, it still pales in comparison to the Omega Drive."
"What's the Omega Drive?" Mackey asks.
"The Omega Drive is the combined energies of numerous weapons and Zords created by my uncle," Gavin explains.
"And they all were destroyed almost a year ago," Zeke adds. "Although Davus, Gavin's uncle, and I had managed to rebuild the Zords, the Omega Drive is still gone for good."
"But you were able to track a similar energy source as the Omega Drive to here," Nella says.
"Yeah, but I can't explain it," Zeke looks back at his scanner.
"Wait, something's going on," Mr. Dragdan says, as he looks at the Oracle's Orb, showing Britt, Sonya, and Simon surrounded by Skullvors and Knightrons.
"Wait, it them?!" Bari realizes, as he gets close to the Oracle's Orb.
Britt flips to the side, before dodging under a Knightron's spear, then grabs a Knightron's spear and is pushed back up against a tree. Two Skullvors charge with their swords, before Britt pushes against the Knightron, holds up its spear, blocking the Skullvors' swords. Britt then kicks away each of the Skullvor, but the Knightron then pulls on its spear, pulling Britt away.
Sonya runs away from a Skullvor, before she runs up the side of a tree, jumps up and performs a split, with the Skullvor running under her and hits the tree. Upon landing, Sonya spins and roundhouse kicks a Knightron, before rolling away from a Knightron's spear. Then two Skullvors grab Sonya by her arms, spin around with her and then throw her ahead.
Simon is knocked back a couple steps, before he blocks a Skullvor's kick and then blocks another's punch. Simon grabs the second Skullvor's arm, flips over it, before sidekicks the Skullvor. Simon spins around and kicks a Knightron, knocking it back. He then tries to kick another Knightron, but it spins around, with Simon kicks the shield on its back and is knocked back.
Simon lands hard on the ground, next to Britt and Sonya, before they see the group of Knightrons and Skullvors surrounding them.
"There's never a Power Ranger around when you need one," Britt says.
Suddenly, a couple Skullvors and a Knightron are blasted off their feet, with the three friends turning to see the Squad Rangers approaching on their Siren Cycles.
"Not the Power Rangers I was expecting," Simon says.
"Their Zords had been repaired?" Britt realizes, as he and his friends stand up.
A couple of Knightrons are holding up their spears behind Britt, Sonya, and Simon, when the Knightrons are suddenly blasted off their feet. The three turn to see Red, Pink, Blue, Green, and Black Knight Rangers riding through the woods on their Dino Force Cycles.
"Now, that is more like it," Simon says.
Gold Knight Ranger and Gold X Ranger flip over a Skullvor and a Knightron's heads, before Gold Knight Ranger strikes the Skullvor with his Mosa Sword and Gold X Ranger strikes the Knightron with his X Baton.
"Zeke's here too," Sonya realizes.
The Squad Rangers park their Siren Cycles and dismount them. Red Squad Ranger uses his Sonic Baton in Baton Mode to block a Skullvor's sword, before striking it. Pink Squad Ranger roundhouse kicks a Knightron, before arm swipes a charging Skullvor. Green Squad Ranger holds onto the front of his Siren Cycle to double kick two Knightrons, then let go and spin kicks them.
Red Knight Ranger uses his Dino Blade to block two Skullvors' swords, before he pushes them up, then back kicks one Skullvor, turns and strikes the other one. Pink Knight Ranger flips past, grabs a Knightron's spear, holds it down, strikes at a pasting Skullvor, pulls the Knightron to the side and strikes it. Blue Knight Ranger runs by, jump kicks a Skullvor, strikes at another as he lands, before upward strikes a charging Knightron.
Green Knight Ranger runs past a Skullvor and a Knightron, striking both as she passes, before spins and strikes another Knightron. A Skullvor is knocked back against a tree, as Black Knight Ranger turns away from it, blocks a Knightron's spear, before striking it, turns and strikes another Skullvor.
Britt, Sonya, and Simon back up to the Siren Cycles.
"I hate feeling so useless," Britt says.
Simon looks over to the Siren Cycle, before noticing a large case on the back of the green Siren Cycle, and walks over to it, opening the case, "Hey, guys, check this out."
Britt and Sonya walk over to Simon and look into the case.
Britt grins, "Thinking what I am?"
Simon and Sonya nod their heads.
Red Squad Ranger spins around, striking a Skullvor with his Sonic Baton, before firing his VS Morpher, blasting a couple Knightrons.
The case drops to the ground, as Britt, Sonya, and Simon hold up their VS Morphers, with their Zords attached to them, before aiming them and firing their Morphers, "Vector, Take Flight!"
Their bodies glow, before they morph into Red, Yellow, and Blue Vector Rangers.
"We're back," Red Vector Ranger sways his cape to the side, before the three Vector Rangers run ahead.
Red Vector Ranger flips over a Knightron's head, before back elbows it, roundhouse kicks a Skullvor and then fires his VS Morpher, blasting another Knightron. Yellow Vector Ranger jumps at a Knightron, blasting it with her VS Morpher, before jump kicks it and sends it flying against two Skullvors, knocking them down. Blue Vector Ranger uses his Grab Blade to catch a Knightron's spear, spins around, side kicks another Knightron, before pulling the first Knightron, causing it to strike a Skullvor and then blasts it back with his VS Morpher, sending it flying forward.
Red Vector Ranger spins around so he stands back to back with Red Squad Ranger, "So, gonna confiscate our Morphers, Bari?"
"Does it look like it?" Red Squad Ranger asks, before they separate to dodge a Knightron's spear strike.
Gold X Ranger strikes away a Skullvor with his X Baton.
Gold X Ranger reaches behind his back and then holds up the scanner, looking at it, "Wait, this energy signal. Can it be?"
Gold X Ranger turns to look up at a tall hill, before he nods his head and runs ahead.
Red Knight Ranger strikes a Knightron with his Dino Blade, then watches him, "Where he going?"
Yellow Vector Ranger holds down a Skullvor's sword with her VS Morpher, "Some creep was building a large cannon over there."
Red Squad Ranger blasts a Skullvor with his VS Morpher, before looking over, "That must be Domehead."
Gold Knight Ranger fires his Mosa Morpher, "Go on, we'll handle this." He then strikes forward with his Mosa Sword.
Red Knight Ranger then runs toward the hill, with Red Squad Ranger following him.
Red Knight Ranger and Red Squad Ranger arrive to see Gold X Ranger is knocked back, as Slashur standing in front of him, with Domehead behind the large cannon.
"Ah, more Rangers for me to cut up," Slashur says, as Red Squad Ranger helps Gold X Ranger to his feet.
"What is that thing?" Red Knight Ranger asks.
"It's emitting the same type of energy that the Omega Drive comprises," Gold X Ranger explains.
Domehead looks at the back of the cannon, "It's ready for a test firing."
"You need to stop," Gold X Ranger takes a step forward. "You have no idea what might happen if you try to recreate the Omega Drive."
"Oh, but that's not my goal in the slightest," Domehead starts. "You see, I admired Chainlord, but once I realized his plan was to rewrite reality, I realized how shortsighted he was. So I'm not trying to create a new Omega Drive, I've created the Omega Cannon!"
Domehead then presses a button at the back of the cannon, which fires a powerful ray over the Rangers' heads, hitting a spot in the sky and creating a large hole in midair.
"What in the world?" Red Knight Ranger responds, as he looks up.
"I don't believe it, Domehead punched a hole in the dimensional barrier," Gold X Ranger realizes.
"Dimensional barrier?" Red Knight Ranger looks over to him.
"Yeah, there's multiple dimensions," Gold X Ranger looks to Red Knight Ranger. "There's one where a computer virus ravaged the entire world. And another where dinosaurs still exist." He looks back up. "There's even a world where there aren't any Power Rangers, but still have other heroes."
Red Knight Ranger looks back up, "Which dimension is that?"
Suddenly, a figure flips out of the hole, which closes up behind him.
The Rangers watch as the figure has landed on the ground, and stands up straight.
"Well, that's… unexpected," Gold X Ranger says.
The figure, in a red and gray Ranger suit with a yellow diamond on his chest, finishes standing, as Red Omega Ranger responds, "Trust me, you don't know the half of it."
TO BE CONTINUED...
