1. Doubutsu Strike

A/N: Hello there. If you are here, it is because you are reading my other story, Animal Strike. This series will be its Super Sentai Counterpart. I really hope you enjoy.

Another thing, just a little FYI: the characters in this series are speaking Japanese. Since I don't know a lot of Japanese, I will be writing it in English. Just wanted to let you know that. But I won't say no to the use of the occasional "Nani" among other Japanese words I do know. This series will be mainly in English.

(Disclaimer: I do not own Super Sentai, those rights belong to Toei. I only take credit for my own ideas and my own characters.)

Chapter 1: Doubutsu Strike

It was like any other day in Tokyo. The birds were chirping and the wind flowed smoothly. The flowers looked beautiful and people walked around everywhere on this fine day. It was sunny and the kids were playing at the local playground.

Mothers talked with each other as their children played together. The song of the birds played as they flew around everywhere. Schoolgirls walked around the park as they talked with each other, wearing the occasional school outfit.

"So, how did it go the other day?" a girl with long hair asked her friend as they were receiving their ice cream.

"Well, I was able to do it. Now I think I'll be able to make it to the university that i want to go to." The girl with a ponytail said happily. They both smiled as they walked up to a table and sat down.

A child's ball rolled over to where they sat and they took notice. One of the girls picked it up. She looked up to see the child coming to retrieve his ball. She rolled it over to him so that he wouldn't have to make the trip all the way over. The kid picked up the ball and quickly thanked the girls as he ran back over to where his friends were.

The girls smiled at each other as they started to eat their ice cream. Suddenly, screams were heard as people ran away from an exploding building. The girls ice cream was ruined as the table fell over. People were running everywhere. The girls fell to the ground as people shoved them out of the way trying to run away.

They looked up towards where all these people were coming from to see another building explode. The fires grew and the fire engines could be heard. They looked all around as people kept running. They also started to run as they got back up. They ran until a shockwave of unbelievable proportions hit them along with a group of people ahead of them.

They all turned to see a vicious looking creature walking on two legs. His blades transformed back into his hands as he got closer. He kept the blades that were on his arms. As he got into view, everyone was horrified. The creature has a face that resembled that of a mantis but had a humanoid look to it. It's hands transformed from mantis hands to regular hands. It's eyes were orange and it's antenna were sticking out of the top of its head. The figures color was green with some black all around.

"You pathetic humans," the monster yelled, "Beware my power and beware the power of the Jiku army."

The girls were the first ones seen and the monster had pleasure in what he saw. He moved forward before being blasted back. Sparks fell off his body as he fell onto the ground.

"What the," the monster said as he got back up. He looked around and saw nothing. The schoolgirls were also confused.

"Jiku Army? That sounds like a ridiculous name!" A mysterious voice yelled out.

"How dare you make fun of my masters name!" the monster turned everywhere, anger within him.

"So your army is named after a single guy. Kind of pathetic don't you think." the voice said again.

"Come out and say it to my face!" the monster yelled again.

"Watch what you say, you might regret it later." the voice said and the monster was shot back again.

The monster got up as he saw a mysterious figure standing on a rooftop. The figure looked down at the monster as he pulled up his arms, stretching them. The symbol on his chest glowed a white color as it was outlined. It was a number one stylized in a way that looked like a tiger. The figure then appeared in the full light of the sun that came down. He jumped off the roof and stood in front of the girls who were on the ground.

The Red Ranger stood in front of the monster. His suit had a cool design. He had stripes resembling a tigers stripes all around his suit. The stripes black while the suit was red. His boots were red with some more black markings behind them and the collar of the boots was gold. His helmet resembled a tiger with black eyes on the top on each side. The visor was black and resembled a tigers mouth when open. The whole suit had a black tiger motif while a black tiger stylized number 1 remained on the middle of the suit. He had a gold belt with a Square snapped belt buckle which had a logo of a hawk on it. This was the logo of the Kemonorangers. There was also a number 1 on the buckle. On his left arm was a wristband which, when pressed in the middle, transforms into a morpher. He had two holsters. Ok his right holster he had what looked to be a blaster. This was called the Raiku Blaster. On the left holster was what appeared to be a sort of sword. This was called the Raiku Saber.

"How dare you hurt these beautiful girls." Red said to him as he turned to pick the girls up. "Please, get out of here quickly."

The girls nodded and ran off as other people also ran off. Red turned around to look at the monster. Under his helmet, he had rage in his eyes. He traced the hilt of the Raiku Saber. He finally pulled it out and pushed it up to reveal a sword. He spun it around before holding the blade with his right hand while holding the handle with his left hand.

"I'm taking you down!" Red said as he began his attack.

"Go ahead and try!" the monster said as he started running towards Red.

They clashed and struck each other. They continued striking until the monster gained the upper hand and sent red flying. He landed on the ground hard and he looked up to see the monster summoning something. Suddenly, the ground began to shake as other monsters popped out of the ground.

"Ryaku! Rise!" Monsters rose from the ground. They had what looked to be gas masks and looked distorted. The had clothes that were ripped and they had mechanical implants. They had axe like weapons with spear heads at the bottom of the handle. It also looked like it could become a blaster.

Red looked at them and pointed at them before putting his hands on his head. He didn't expect this. He somehow had the feeling this would happen but he tested his luck out anyways.

"Ani!" Red looked up to see another figure standing on the rooftop. Her number glowed White and she jumped out of the shadows. It was another ranger, but this one was wearing yellow.

The yellow ranger walked over to the red one. She had spots resembling a cheetahs stripes all around her suit. The spots were black while her suit was yellow. Her boots were yellow with more black markings behind them and the collar of the boots were silver. Her helmet resembled a cheetah with black eyes on the top on each side. The visor was black and resembled a cheetahs open mouth. The whole suit had a black cheetah motif while a black cheetah stylized number 4 remained on her chest. She had a silver belt with square shaped belt buckle which had the same logo that red had but the number 1 was replaced by a 4. On her left arm was her wristband which could transform into a morpher. She had two holsters. The one of the right held her Raiku Blaster and the one on her left was her Raiku Blade. Her suit fit her right in the perfect ways. Ways that would make her brother get to overprotective.

"Ani! You don't just rush into things! Why are you so stupid sometimes." Yellow told Red.

"Nani! I don't rush into things!" Red told Yellow.

"Yes you do!" Yellow yelled at him. They began to bicker with each other. The monster could only watch everything go down. He was really confused. The footsoldiers also stopped.

By the looks of it, the argument got bad as Yellow took Red's sword and started hitting him with it. He ran around trying to avoid her.

"What the hell are they doing." The monster whispered over to one of the footsoldiers as it shrugged.

"Anyways! Let's attack!" Yellow said pointing the sword towards the monster.

"Yea!" Red took his sword back and pointed it. Yellow pulled out her own sword and they got into their ready positions before running off into battle.

"Ryaku!" the footsoldiers started their attack and they clashed.

Red killed monsters wherever they came from, while Yellow fought the more of them that appeared behind Red. They ended up back to back fighting. They suddenly felt something more powerful coming their way and they moved out of the way as a slash of fire hit the Ryaku head on and caused them to explode.

Red looked up from where he was on the ground to see that the monster who was not fighting sent that attack. He got up and looked for Yellow but she was nowhere near him.

"End of the line." The monster said to Red as he got closer.

"I don't think so!" They both turned to see Yellow jumping down from a rooftop and hit the monster head on with her sword. The monster was sent back by this attack.

"This isn't going so well." The monster stated the obvious.

"You bet it isn't!" Red said. It was only two individuals, but they had managed to fight off a huge group of monsters.

"What's you name anyways, monster guy?" Yellow asked a weird question, which caused Red to turn and look at her.

"Why would you ask him that?" Red asked his female companion.

"I don't want to be rude and call him, monster guy." Yellow answered him.

"You already are!" Red was getting impatient.

"My names Kurasshuzoido! Axis General Kurasshuzoido." The monster finally stayed his name.

"Good, now we can kick some ass!" Yellow said picking up her sword.

"Maybe next time!" Kurasshuzoido said before he threw some sort of gernade like weapon towards the two rangers sending them flying back. When the rangers looked up, he was gone.

"Oh great! He escaped!" Yellow said in frustration.

"Well, what did you expect?" Red asked her.

"It's all your fault!" Red almost fell over when he heard this.

"Whatever! Let's go before people come and start asking questions." Red said as he started walking away with yellow close behind him.

Meanwhile a sort of drone like camera landed on a nearby tree. It zoomed in on rangers as they walked away. It was watching every single moment in the battle that had just occurred.

"This is ridiculous!" A monster standing by, watching the screen said as he destroyed the table in front of him.

The monster looked like a mix between tiger and a lion. He was red, orange and gold in color with some black markings. He wears a coat with a sort of cape look to it. He had a sword strapped to his back.

"Zaku, what are you doing?" another monster called out as it entered the room.

"What do you want, Baishisu?" Zaku asked him, anger in his voice.

Baishisu was the smart one. The monsters that were produced by their army was thanks to him. He would use dead human cells and create new zombie like monsters. He looked like a goblin with two antenna at the top of his head. He had glasses on and carried a huge black backpack.

"Well, you are destroying valuable equipment and I want you to stop!" Baishisu yelled at him.

Zaku turned around as he growled. He came closer to the other monster. Baishisu knows what he just did. He backed up as Zaku came closer.

"That's enough you two!" Another voice was heard.

A man walked into the room. He looked to be a nice looking man with fair hair. He carried a cane, mostly just for the sake of carrying one, and he wore a sort of tuxedo. He walked over to his throne. As he sat down, the Ryaku came with a plate that had food and a drink. The food was cooked chicken while the drink was wine.

"Why are you fighting." The man asked them.

"Zaku destroyed one of our systems and it'll take days to fix it." Baishisu answered his master.

"Well then, fix it!" He told Baishisu with a stern tone.

"Yes boss!" Baishisu quickly left the room with a group of Ryaku following him.

"Something bothering you Zaku?" The man asked the monster.

"No! Nothing!" Zaku said as he bowed and prepared to leave.

"Don't worry!" This caused Zaku to turn and look at the man. "We will destroy them. No one will get in our way." The man turned to face Zaku and stared him down. Zaku finally turned and left.

The man was left there eating his food and drinking his wine. He always liked a fancy meal. He never liked to get his hands dirty and always preferred to use a fork.

"You know you could help, right?" A young boy, maybe in his early twenties, asked the young girl he was with.

"You have to carry everything because you are the boy and I am the girl." The girl, maybe in her late teens, told the boy which caused him to drop some of the many bags he was carrying.

"I'm tired!" He told her.

"Baka! You dropped the apples! Oh no! You also dropped the ingredients I was going to use for my new recipe." The girl started picking up everything that fell onto the ground.

"Madoka! Don't over..." He was stopped by the girls finger. She put it on his lips and her face grew red.

"Baka!" She yelled once again before storming off.

"Madoka wait up!" The boy said before he tripped and fell on the ground.

Madoka walked through the park a little pissed off. She wore a yellow jacket with a cool animal design to it. On the left side of her jacket was a cheetah while on her right side was a black cheetah motif. The motif of the cheetahs head. She had a logo which looked to be of a hawk. On the back was a cheetah stylized number 4. On the top back of the jacket was the word, "Fast". On the bottom back of the jacket was the word, "Cheetah". She wore black short shorts. She wore brown boots and brown fingerless gloves. Her hair was brown and it was going down to her shoulders. She wore a yellow wristband on her left wrist. She walked on and sat on a bench.

She looked on as she saw a pair of siblings playing with each other. Tears ran down her cheeks as she remembered what it was like when she played with her older brother. They would play on the playground all the time. She covered her eyes with her hands. Then, she felt the presence of someone else. She looked up to see her companion.

"What do you want?" She asked him with anger and sadness in her voice.

"What's wrong Madoka?" He sat down next to her, not bothering to answer her question.

She began to cry uncontrollably and held onto the jacket of her companion. He hugged her and held her close. He lay his head on top of hers.

"Ani?" Madoka stopped crying, but she sniffled.

"What is it?" Her older brother asked her.

"Why can't we get along?" She asked him.

"What do you mean. We always get along." He told her as he stroked her hair.

"But we always fight and.." Madoka was stopped as her brother moved. They were now facing each other.

"That doesn't matter. We are siblings and it will all ways be like that, no matter what. I'm always here for you sis. Don't forget that." He told her with a reassuring tone.

She started crying again, "Kite!" She buried her face into his chest. He hugged her again and he saw the kids playing. He smiled.

"Now, how about we get home. I think some of your ingredients are still good to use." Kite told his sister as she nodded. He picked up the bags and Madoka picked up a few others. They began to walk home.

Kite wore a red jacket with a cool animal design. On the left side of the jacket was a tiger design. On the right side was a black tiger motif. The motif of a tigers head. He had a logo similar to his sisters on the right side of his jacket. On the back was a tiger stylized number 1. On the top back of his jacket was the word, "Furious". On the bottom back of the jacket was the word, "Tiger". He wore blue jeans and his black and white Vans which he bought one time when he was in the US. He wore black fingerless gloves. His hair was short black hair that spikes up and drapes behind. He also had some blonde highlights. He wore a red wristband on his left wrist. He walked on next to his sister.

They got to an apartment complex and they quickly walked into their own apartment. The apartment was decent size. It had three rooms and two bathrooms. The living room was decent sized and the kitchen was small. They had a dining table next to the kitchen entrance. They put down the bags and Madoka quickly moved to the kitchen to take out a pan. She was getting ready to cook. Before she started, she took out a picture and smiled at it. It was a picture of her, Kite, and two young children. She put it back into her in its place in the kitchen. She put on an apron and started cooking.

Kite moved to his room and he sat down on his chair. He picked up his gaming controller and turned on his system. He looked over to a picture that he had of him and his sister. He picked it up. The picture was of his sister messing around with him on his birthday. He was hugging her as she put up a pair of bunny ears on top of his head with her fingers. This picture was taken after the incident.

*flashback begins*

"Kite! Kite!" Madoka called out to her brother. She ran down the hallways of a big mansion. She wore a beautiful yellow dress that went down to her knees. It was a dress her mother had bought her. She wore a nice pair of black flats. Her hair was down and she had various yellow flower pins in her hair.

Madoka continued walking down the hallway, she was just 13 years old. Her brother was only 16 years old. She looked for him everywhere. She walked past a closet.

"Boo!" Kite yelled out as he came out of the closet and scared his sister.

Madoka fell backwards and landed on her butt. She looked up to see her brother laughing as she began to tear up. Kite noticed this and began to feel sorry as he reached over to hug her. Suddenly, Madoka grabbed Kite by the arm and, with surprising strength, she threw him behind her. His face was against the ground and Madoka was on top of him, pinning him down and pinning his arm against his back.

"Ok I get it! I'm sorry!" Kite yelled out in pain. Madoka let go as she got up. Kite wore his usual clothes. A black t-shirt, blue jeans, and his Vans.

"Don't ever do that again, Ani!" She said angrily.

"I'm sorry." Kite rubbed his shoulder.

"Anyways, mom and dad are coming home. We have to get ready for their arrival." Madoka told him as she began to walk down the hallway again, Kite followed.

"So, mom and dad are just going to leave again, what's the point?" Kite said in a bored and sad way.

They went out to the patio where a maid was preparing the table for lunch. Madoka had cooked the lunch and had been cooking food ever since she joined a cooking class at school. She enjoyed it very much and actually made decent food.

Down on the grass area, two smaller children were playing around with a puppy. The little dog happily chase around the two kids. These two kids were Kite and Madoka's youngest siblings, Gingka and Sophie. They were running around not paying attention to anyone who came and went. They had stopped when they heard Madoka call out to them. They wore fancy like outfits, Gingka wearing a blue shirt, black vest, beige dress pants and brown shoes, and Sophie wearing a white dress with black shoes and she also wore a flower pin in her hair. Gingka had spiked hair and Sophie had long hair.

"Cmon you guys!" Madoka called to them. The younger siblings raced up the stairs with the puppy behind them. The maid had left and the siblings were all outside now.

"So we can eat right now, right?" Kite asked as he reached for some food.

"No!" Madoka slapped his hand and she turned to fix up the young ones so that they looked good.

Kite rubbed his hand. His sister was younger than him, but she had a surprising amount of strength. Madoka continued making final touches to the meal and to the children. Kite pulled out his phone and went onto social media.

It looked like a perfect day. Then, a butler walked out onto the porch, fast and worried. He stopped in front of the table. He successfully got the attention of both Kite and Madoka, the little ones were playing around with the table cloth. He motioned to Kite and Kite got up. They walked back into the house.

"Master Kite. I have terrible news." The butler wiped off his sweat with a handkerchief.

"What is it?" Kite asked him. Unbeknownst to them, Madoka was at the door listening in.

"Your parents," the butler stopped as he tried to find the words, "they've been in... they are..."

"What is it?" Kite began to get impatient.

"They are... dead."

*flashback ends*

Kite was snapped out of his thoughts by Madoka's scream. She was letting Kite know that the food was ready. He turned off his console and walked out of his room. He sat down at the table where Madoka had put down his food. She had made her signature sushi. It was all that she made which is why she didn't take long. At least not longer than she usually does.

"Itadakimasu!" They began to eat the food. Madoka smiles at how much her cooking has improved. Kite smiled. He was happy that his sister could be happy.

A man walked down the street. He had a backpack on. He wore a white dress shirt with a blue vest. He had black pants and brown shoes. His hair was short and black in color with some blue highlights. He wore a blue wristband on his left wrist. He wore a coat and walked down the street looking at a map.

"Where did he say it was." He said trying to figure out the map.

He continued his walk. He wanted to find where his family lived. He had come all the way from England. He came to Japan to see his mom and his brother. He flipped something in between his fingers. He also came to Japan to fight alongside a group of people. He saw them on the news and knew that it was time to fight. He was a chosen one. He knew that his brother was also chosen so he wanted to talk to him as soon as possible.

"Hey bro!" The man looked up to see that his brother was calling him.

"Sosuke!" The man called out to him.

"Tsubasa. It's been a while." The boy, Sosuke, asked his brother. He wore a black t-shirt with blue jeans and his black Adidas shoes. He had short black hair which spiked up a little. He wore a black wristband on his left wrist.

"Yea it has. Can we please go to the house?" The man, Tsubasa, asked his brother.

Sosuke nodded and they walked off. They walked for a few minutes before reaching the house where Sosuke lived with his mother. The house was big. Inside their was a big living room and there was a way to get to the kitchen and dinning room. The house had four rooms along with three bathrooms. When they walked in, their mother was so happy to see Tsubasa that she gave him a big hug and refused to let go.

"Mom! You can let me go!" Tsubasa could barely breathe. His mom had surprising strength.

"I'm sorry. I haven't seen you in a while. The last time you came you didn't stay very long." Tsubasa's mother told him.

"I visited you guys last month." Tsubasa said as he rubbed the back of his head.

"Well make yourself at home. I'm going to cool something up," his mother moved over to the kitchen.

"Actually mom," Tsubasa pulled out a letter from his backpack, "Dad sent you something."

Tsubasa passed the letter over to his mom. His mom accepted it and opened it. Sosuke sat on the couch waiting to hear what his dad had sent to his mom. The truth was that Sosuke has never really had a great relationship with his father. The last time he saw him, he was bailing Sosuke out of jail after he stole something from a market. He has always felt that his father lived his older brother and sister more than him.

Their mother opened the letter and read it. She looked up at her oldest son and smiled. She walked over to him and hugged him. She began to cry tears of joy. Sosuke was confused and didn't know what to do.

"I'm so happy that you have chosen to stay with your brother." Their mother said. This caught Sosuke by surprise. Their was also a photo of a young couple. Sosuke looked at it and realized that it was of his mother and father.

"Mom, Cmon. Stop crying." Tsubasa said as he hugged his mother back, "You are still young and you still have a lot to see."

"You are right son. I should go pack. It says here that the private jet will be here tomorrow." She walked away towards her room.

"So, dad wants to see mom again." Sosuke said to his brother.

"You know, you could always call him." Tsubasa said as he put down his backpack.

"It's not like he cares about me." Sosuke said as he got up.

"Wait!" Tsubasa yelled at him before he left.

"What!" Sosuke sounded unpleased.

"I came here for a reason," he pulled out a battery like object, "We need to find our teammates and get ready for the fight."

"So you saw them on TV too, huh?" Sosuke said as he pulled out a similar object.

"That's why I will be living here with you now," Tsubasa said, "the rest of my stuff will be brought tomorrow."

"Great." Sosuke said, sounding very unenthusiastic.

"Well, let me prepare lunch." Their mother had walked back out and walked into the kitchen.

"I'll help you. I have some English recipes that I brought from England. I'd like to try them if it's ok with you." Tsubasa walked over into the kitchen.

Sosuke looked over at them. He wasn't happy that he would now have to live with his strict older brother. He always followed the rules. He picked up a framed image that was on the table. Then he picked up another one. The bigger one was of Tsubasa, their mother, their sister and their father. The smaller one was of Sosuke and his mother. He's never been and a whole family picture. There was one but his father ripped it up and as far as Sosuke knows, it was for no reason.

"Quick everyone, let's go!" A young girl called to her younger siblings.

"Maya! I want one!" A young boy called to his sister.

"Yuji, I already said no. Let's go!" The girl, Maya, told her young brother. Maya wore a pink shirt with a black hoodie. She had blue jeans and wore black and white Converse. Her brown hair went down to her shoulders. She wore a pink wristband on her left wrist.

Maya walked on holding a few bags in her hands. She had her 5 younger siblings with her, each holding a bag. They walked on through the streets until they got to the house. The house was a decent sized family home. It had five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a large living room a medium sized kitchen and a dining room. It was perfect for them. They had actually received a little help from family friends even though they refused.

Maya put down all the bags she was carrying. She put in the key to the house. Her parents were on a working trip to Kyoto. They owned a farm not far from their home and they would often go to other cities to sell many of the fresh food they made. Sometimes everyone would go and other times Maya would stay home to care for the little ones.

She opened the door and turned around. She always did a head count to make sure that no one was lost on the way home. She began counting. First in line was the youngest sibling, Saya. She was the youngest at only 5 years old. She wore a nice pink dress with flowers. She also wore a sun hat that was given to her along with a pair of white shoes. Her brown hair came down to her shoulders. Next up was the second youngest, Yuri. She was 7 years old. She wore a light blue shirt with polka dots, blue jeans and white shoes. Her black hair was in a ponytail.

The third youngest, Mei, was 8 years old. She wore a pink shirt, a white skirt and white shoes. She also had her brown hair down. The next one was Yuji. He was 10 years old and was a troublemaker. He wore a blue t-shirt, black jeans, and red shoes. He had short black hair. The last one was Damian. He was 15 years old. He wore a black t-shirt, blue jeans, and his black and white shoes. He had short black spikey hair.

Everyone was accounted for, so they picked up the bags and they all walked in. Maya always acted like a mother figure to the others whenever her parents weren't home. She was the oldest after all. She walked over to the kitchen and put down the bags. Her youngest siblings went out to play in the backyard. Damian sat on the couch and got on his phone.

Maya washed her hands and was ready to prepare dinner. She reached into her pocket to take out her phone in order to look for a recipe. She pulled out her phone along with a battery like object. She put the items down on the counter. She looked for a recipe through her phone and found it. She began preparing the food.

After making dinner and eating dinner, Maya prepared the young siblings so that they could go to bed. She helped the girls with their baths. She had a hard time getting Yuji to go to bed. Damian was in his room, which helped Maya. It made one less sibling to worry about. When everything was calm, the kids all fell asleep. Maya was now sitting in the living room, on her phone. Although she was tired, she wanted to look through her phone a little. She barely had time for that during the day.

"Can't sleep?" Maya looked up to see her brother, Damian.

"No, I just wanted to see my phone for a bit. I always seem to miss out on so many things." Maya told Damian.

"Well, I'm just getting water." Damian made his way to the kitchen and poured some water into a cup. He walked back into the living room and sat down on the other side of the sofa.

"So, hows school going." Maya asked him.

"It's going good, I guess." Damian said.

"Off topic, but," Maya smiled as she thought about what she was going to ask, "Do you like any girls."

Damian quickly turned red as he got up and ran towards the kitchen. He put his cup in the sink and quickly made his way towards his room. He was stopped however by a pillow being thrown at his head. He looked behind him as he saw his sister with her arm up.

"Thanks for the answer." Maya said as she laughed.

Damian quickly retreated to his room. Maya finally got up and walked over to her room. She went into her bathroom and took off her clothes. She got into the shower and let the water run over her body for a while. After her shower, she put on her pajamas and got into her bed. With one final glance at her clock, she fell asleep.

"Is it ready yet?" Zaku yelled at Baishisu.

"Almost." Baishisu said as he prepared his monster for his next outing.

"Kurasshuzoido, you better make great use of this." Zaku told him as he punched the monster in the chest.

"I promise." Kurasshuzoido said to Zaku.

"Ok, he should be ready by tomorrow afternoon." Baishisu said.

"Tomorrow, sounds go...," Zaku realized what Baishisu had said, "TOMORROW!!!"

"Yes, please don't hurt me." Baishisu put up his arms trying to protect himself.

"Forget it. Just finish it up!" Zaku yelled as he walked off.

Zaku walked down a few corridors before coming up to the main room doors. Zaku walked in and saw the person he wanted to see. The man from before was sitting on his throne. He ate another meal.

"Master Jiku." Zaku bower before his master.

The man, Jiku, looked up, "What is it?"

"Kurasshuzoido will be ready by tomorrow afternoon. He is gettting upgrades due to what happened earlier today." Zaku said as he kept his head down.

"Good! These rangers need to be destroyed." Jiku said, taking a sip from his wine.

"It will be done at once sir." Zaku said as he got up and walked away.

"Zaku?" Zaku stopped in place as he was called by his master.

"Yes sir." Zaku said.

"Go give them a little warning of what's to come." Jiku said as he continued to eat his meal.

"It will be done at once, Jiku-sama." Zaku said as he walked out of the room.

Jiku sat there in silence. He knew a lot of things. A lot of things that he could never tell anyone. He knew something big about these rangers. The ones who fought his footsoldiers and Kurasshuzoido. He took another bite and lost himself in his thoughts.

Zaku walked down the corridor. He thought about what he was told. The red one was one that intrigued him more. He promised himself that he would kill him. He doesn't know why but he just had the feeling that he had to do it.

"Madoka!" Kite yelled out to his sister. She had gone out without letting him know and he was worried.

Kite walked on trying to find his sister. That was when he saw a little kid running through the park, holding some sort of toy. A man followed the kid. Kite, without thinking, ran towards where the kid was running. The kid tripped and fell. The other man got close and was about to grab the kid before his hand was Cauich by someone.

Kite was there holding the mans hand. The man tried to break from his grasp but could not do so. The kid looked up at Kite. He got up and hid behind Kite, holding onto his shirt. Kite felt this and let the man go.

"What do you want with the kid." Kite asked the man.

"That kid just stole from me!" The man was angry.

"Is that true?" Kite turned to look at the kid.

"Of course it is!" The man yelled again.

"You know you can't steal." Kite knelt down so that he could be face to face with the kid.

"Yea kid! Give it back!" The man yelled.

"Hey! Do me a favor! Shut up!" Kite scolded the man.

"You should give that back. If you don't, then Santa won't bring you anything when Christmas time comes." Kite told the kid, even though knowing it was the middle of January and Christmas already passed.

"Really?" The kid told him. Kite was surprised that the kid was falling for it.

"Yea, so just give the toy back and Santa will bring you more toys." Kite said to the kid, smiling.

The kid obliged and gave the toy back to the man. The man swiped from the kids hands and smiled deviously. He walked away as Kite stared coldly at him. Kite knelt down again to talk to the kid.

"So, where's your mom or dad?" Kite asked the kid.

"My sister is taking care of me. I don't know where she is." The kid told him.

"Well we should go find her then." Kite said as he stood up.

"Yuji!" The kid looked around Kite to see his sister. He quickly ran to her.

Kite turned around and stopped in his tracks. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. That kids sister was one of the cutest girls he's ever seen. He looked up and down her body. He stared at her. He may have been staring for too long. He saw her face and thought about how cute she was. His jaw was dropped and he could swear that he was drooling.

The kid pointed over to Kite and the kids sister made her way over. Kite closed his mouth and wiped off the drool from his mouth. He checked his hair real quick and then pretended to act naturally. The girl came over and bowed her head down.

"Arigatou!" The girl said.

"For what?" Kite almost slapped himself. She was obviously talking about her brother.

"For finding my brother." The girl lifted her head up and gave Kite a cute smile. Kite almost melted.

Kite blushed a bit and turned around to the side putting his hand behind his back, "It was nothing. I always do that kind of stuff."

"My names Maya. Nice to meet you." Maya held out her hand.

"My names Kite." He shook Maya's hand.

Maya blushed a little. Kites hand was warm. She scolded herself in her head. This was no time to be finding a boyfriend. They let go of each others hands and stared at each other for a while. Kite looked into her brown eyes and was lost in them. Maya felt the same way as she looked into his eyes. Yuji finally broke them out of their trances.

"Maya, let's go." Yuji sounded like he was whining. Maya took his hand.

"Yes I should get going." Maya said as she bowed her head in thanks again. Kite noticed she had bags in her hands.

"You need some help?" Kite asked, being a gentleman was something he knew how to do.

Maya stared at his eyes again. Kite did the same. Maya finally answered, "No it's ok."

"No, I insist." Kite said as he took the bags from Maya.

"Are you sure?" Maya asked him.

"Yea, ill go with you and carry these bags to your house." Kite smiles at her. She smiled back.

"Arigatou." Maya said to him and they were off. They stayed silent for a moment but they began to talk.

"Sosuke, do you even know why we were chosen!" Tsubasa yelled at his brother. He was clearly stressed.

"For the last time! I don't know!" Sosuke yelled back.

"Sosuke, it was your ancestors who chose you." The two brother's mom told the younger brother.

"Mom, you aren't supposed to tell him that." Tsubasa scolded his mom a bit.

"I'm sorry dear." She said to him but moved on quickly getting her last bag from her room. "Sosuke, can you take these bags outside.

They heard a car beep. They went outside to find a limo. Tsubasa quickly greeted the driver and helped him with some of his mother's luggage. They opened the trunk and Tsubasa's luggage was their. They took it out before putting in the other luggage.

"Ok boys, take care of each other and never let anyone mess with you. You guys are tough. I know that you will have each other's backs no matter what." Their mother told them.

"I got it mom. I'll take good care of Sosuke and the house. I will make sure no one hurts my little brother." Tsubasa messed up Sosuke's hair.

"I got it mom. I'll make sure I take care of myself." Sosuke turned to the side.

"Just take care, that's all I'm asking, don't get killed." Their mother told them both. With that she gave each one a hug and a kiss on the cheek. She got into the limo and she left. Tsubasa and Sosuke were left standing there.

"So brother, what do you want to learn next?" Tsubasa asked his brother.

"Oh no! I'm not listening to you!" Sosuke yelled and with that he went inside. He picked up his jacket and walked out again.

"Where do you think you are going?" Tsubasa blocked the doorway. He glared at Sosuke.

"None of your business." Sosuke said as he pushed his way through. He walked down the street.

Tsubasa put his luggage inside the house, closed the door and locked it. He ran down the street to catch up to Sosuke,

"Sosuke, what's your problem?" Tsubasa asked him.

"Why do you care." Sosuke said coldly to his brother.

"I'm just worried about you." Tsubasa told him in a worried tone.

"Well don't be! I don't need your sympathy." Sosuke pulled forward, trying to get away from Tsubasa.

"Sosuke, is it about dad?!" Tsubasa told him as he stopped. Sosuke turned around and they stared at each other. Hatred within their eyes.

"Whatever!" Sosuke said as he turned and walked down the street.

Tsubasa caught up to Sosuke as he stopped at an ice cream truck. There was a girl in front of them but Sosuke didn't mind. Sosuke eyed the girl. He could tell that she was in her grade. Tsubasa elbowed him, signaling Dosuke to stop staring.

"What!" Sosuke whispered angrily.

"Stop staring at the girl!" Tsubasa whispered back.

"She's hot, that's how I like em!" Sosuke said as he licked his lips. The girl was bent over looking at the picture of a soecific ice cream.

"Sosuke stop right now!" Tsubasa whispered furiously to his devious younger brother.

Sosuke ignored him. He started moving his eyes down. He wanted to see what was down under. She was wearing a skirt after all. He was trying to play it cool. Unfortunately for him, the girl took notice in the brothers argument. She waited for the right moment. Sosuke kept going down and he was going to pretend to tie his shoe when suddenly, he was slapped right in the face. He was sent backwards and landed on his butt.

"Pervert!" The girl yelled at him.

"Ouch that hurt!" Sosuke yelled.

"Of course it hurt you baka." Tsubasa told him.

"I was just going to tie my shoe!" Sosuke said as he rubbed his cheek.

"I'm so sorry miss," Tsubasa bowed his head in apology, signaling Sosuke to do the same, "we won't cause you anymore trouble."

"Good!" The girl said.

"Wait a minute, I recognize you now. You are the hottie from school. The one that all the boys check out. You're Madoka right." Sosuke felt pain surge through the side of his face again as he fell backwards again.

"Sosuke!" Tsubasa yelled at his idiot brother.

"I remember you. You blew up that toilet in the boys bathroom." Sosuke laughed at tha memory as Madoka recognized him.

"You know my brother?" Tsubasa asked Madoka.

"Yes, we have classes together. He's a baka!" Madoka yelled at Sosuke and he just smiled.

"Then why don't you come and prove it." Sosuke sent a fake kiss.

"Sosuke!" Tsubasa held Madoka back by wrapping his arms around her waist. If he hadn't done that, he was sure that Sosuke would be killed.

"Let me go!" Madoka yelled and Tsubasa happily obliged.

"Great, the ice cream truck drove away." Sosuke said. Madoka held her hand backwards, getting it ready to smack Sosuke but she was stopped by Tsubasa.

"If you don't mind me asking, what is that around your neck." Tsubasa asked as he saw a battery like objecthang around her neck.

"Why do you want to know?" Madoka sounded a little worried.

Tsubasa could sense this and pulled out his battery like object. He signaled Sosuke to do the same and he did. Madoka looked at them in surprise. Then she squealed.

"Kite's going to be so happy!" Madoka said doing a little dance.

"Why?" Sosuke asked.

"And who's Kite?" Tsubasa asked her.

"Kite is my big brother. And we have been looking for other rangers like us. We were assembled by our ancestors to fight against an evil that has revived. I'm just a little disappointed that Sosuke is a pet of it but let's get along." Madoka bowed as she gave them all the information.

"Sosuke, we found them. We need to find Kite right away then. I have a lot to talk about with him." Tsubasa said.

"I guess we can work together. Sorry about what I said and what I was trying to do. Let's get along." Sosuke bowed and Madoka smiled. They shook hands and Madoka led them back to her house. She was hoping Kite was there.

Maya laughed along with Kite. Yuji just walked along with them confused. Kite had just told Maya something that had happened to him because of his sister.

"I swear to you, my sister has the strength of like 5 men." Kite told Maya.

"That's one tough sister." Maya laughed again.

They eventually got to Maya's house. She opened the door and walked in allowing Kite to walk in as well. She signaled Kite to go into the kitchen and set down the things. Through their walk together they got to know each other.

Kite learned of Maya's 5 siblings and her parents. He learned that she went to the same school he went to. And one thing he was happy to find out is that Maya has never dated anyone.

Maya has learned about Kites family and felt sadness for him and his sister. She also learned that it has just been them for a while. She learned his likes and dislikes. She felt like she knew him all her life.

Maya walked over to the sink and Kite was putting stuff away in their fridge. He wasn't one to just leave them like that. He asked if he could do it for them and Maya happily agreed. She walked back to the fridge and tripped on something. Kite was able to catch her as he got up. He held her upper body in his arms. He helped her stand back up and find her balance.

They stared at each other, both blushing. They then looked away. Kite even faked a cough. Maya picked up a toy that belonged to Yuji.

"Yuji! How many times have I told you not to leave your toys lying around!" Maya called out to her little brother.

"I'm sorry." He said as he walked out into the living room. He picked up his toy and walked away.

"Are you ok?" Kite wanted to make sure Maya was alright. He didn't know why but he was very attracted to her.

"Yea. This always happens believe it or not." Maya giggled. Kite smiled.

He finished helping Maya with everything. He got up and Maya walked him to the door. As they stopped by the door, Kite noticed something sticking out of her pocket. It was popping out and he wondered but he stopped himself. He didn't want to scare her so he took out his Kemono Battery and played around with it. Maya took notice of this.

"You have one of those too." Maya asked in a surprised tone.

"Yea. Why? Do you have one?" Kite asked.

"Yes I do." Maya pulled out her own battery and showed it to Kite.

"That's amazing." Kite said as he studied her battery. He was studying it until he found himself looking at something else. He scolded himself in his head.

"So I guess. We are teammates." Maya said as she looked at his battery.

"Yea I guess so." Kite laughed nervously.

"Well I don't know a whole lot about this stuff." Maya told Kite the truth. She doesn't know why she was chosen.

"Well I can teach you some stuff." Kite mentally slapped himself. He said that to quickly. He might as well go jump off a bridge.

"Yea. That would be nice." Maya told himwith a smile. What was she thinking? This was going way to fast.

"Well, whenever you want," Lite began.

"Today would be nice." Maya almost fell as she turned around, turning red.

"Ok, but, uh, you got your siblings to take care of." Kite said to her.

"Oh, that's right. I can get them ready and we can go to the park. They can play on the playground while we talk." Maya looked at Kite as she said this.

"Ok. I can wait." Kite said smiling nervously, again.

"Ok. Then i should get to it. Just sit on the sofa. We will be out soon." Maya said and with this, she was off to find her younger siblings.

This is going to fast. Kite thought to himself. He just met the girl. He sat on the couch and rubbed his legs. He looked around at the house. He saw pictures of children. He also saw pictures of Maya. Pictures of Maya with her parents were also around.

Kite turned when he heard something. He looked up to see a teenage boy. Damian, he presumed. Maya told him of a brother not too much younger than her.

"Hey." Damian said to him, as he stared down the boy that was sitting on the sofa.

"Sup." Kite made a gesture with his head.

"You friends with my sister?" Damain asked.

"Yea. We were going to talk about something in the park." Kite told him.

"Guess I better get ready then. Maya always likes to take me everywhere with her and the others." Damian sounded disappointed.

With that Damian left to his room to get ready. Kite began to think about Maya and her family. He remembers when he had his happy family.

*flashback begins*

"Mom! Dad!" Madoka called.

"Yes dear!" Madoka heard her mother call. She ran down the hallway and went out into the backyard. Her mother sat at the table with Sophie. She was doing the little girls hair. Her father sat down outside as well, reading the newspaper. Her younger brother, Gingka, was down playing in the grass. Kite was down their with him.

"I think I'm done playing spaceship." Kite said to his brother as he was panting.

"Cmon, a little more please." Gingka begged his brother.

"Look, Madoka is over there." Kite pointed to his sister. Gingka saw his older sister and began to run towards her. Kite sighed of relief as he made his way back up.

He looked up as he was walking and could see the smiles on his families faces. They were rich but they weren't snobs. Well Madoka was sometimes. Mostly to any girls she didn't like. He walked on hoping that this could be how everyday was.

*flashback ends*

"Ok, I'm ready." Kite was snapped out of his thoughts. He saw three little girls staring at him. He could also see the boy he saved from the shop keeper. Damian was standing by the door.

When he turned to look at Maya, he gasped. She wore a nice pink shirt that made her body pop out a little. She wore a black skirt with black leggings underneath. She wore a pair of converse. Her hair was down and she had a few pins in her hair that kept some of it up. Kite stared for a moment before snapping out of it.

"Sorry. Shall we?" Kite asked as he got up.

They made their way out of the house and walked down the street. They were going to go to their local park.

-0-0-0-0-

"You are walking way to fast." An annoyed Sosuke followed Madoka and Tsubasa as their were walking to the park.

"Well keep up!" Madoka told him as she continued to walk.

"Madoka. Are you sure your brother is here at the park." Tsubasa sounded concerned.

"Positive," Madoka said to him, "He always sits here and looks at girls."

"So he's like me?" Sosuke smirked.

"No because he isn't being a pervert about it!" Madoka snapped back.

"Sosuke!" Tsubasa gave his brother a glare.

They stopped at the park entrance and made their way in. They walked along the path. They then found a bench and decided to rest. Madoka and Tsubasa sat as Sosuke stayed standing.

"So your brother is red and you are yellow?" Tsubasa was talking to Madoka.

"Yes. We were found before you guys. That's why we fought that monster. It was all over TV. If I knew, then I would totally have given an interview." Madoka said as her eyes sparkled.

"Cool! I want to be on TV too!" Sosuke said with a determined look.

"Well, the monsters are our top priority. We must stop these monsters with any means necessary." Tsubasa informed the two.

"Look!" Madoka pointed at a group of people walking together.

"What!?" Sosuke asked, confused at why she was pointing at what seemed to be a group of regular people.

"They are monsters." Madoka said, standing up and clenching her fist.

"That group of regular people?" Sosuke asked again.

"Yes!" Madoka said.

"What did they do!" Tsubasa got up and got his fists ready.

"They," Madoka paused, "They got ice cream and didn't inform us of the ice cream truck being around the corner." Tsubasa and Sosuke almost fell over. They turned to look at Madoka, who had an angry face on.

"Seriously!" Sosuke said, annoyed.

"Yes! Now let's go get some. You are paying!" Madoka got up and dragged the boys with her. They were surprised to feel her strength. They couldn't get free of her grasp. They were struggling, but Madoka didn't care. She didn't get ice cream last time because of Sosuke. So now she was going to make him pay for it.

"Are they ready to attack?!" Zaku yelled at Baishisu, who was working hard at something.

"Yes! They are ready. And thanks to a special upgrade of mine, Kurasshuzoido will be ready soon." Baishisu said as he continued his work.

"Good!" Zaku said as he walked off.

Zaku walked into his quarters and sat on his bed. He drank a whole bottle of whiskey. He was about to fight someone who could be as powerful as him. He was nervous and excited. He wanted to kill this red ranger and keep his head as a trophy.

"I will kill him." Zaku gulped. "Before he kills me."

"So how does it work?" Maya asked Kite te question. She wasn't sure how the whole "henshin" thing worked.

"You just put the Kemono Battery in the morpher. A hologram of the suit shows up over the Morpher and then you fire it out." Kite made a gesture with his hand, showing Maya how to do it.

"Like this?" Maya did the same thing Kite did.

"Exactly." Kite chuckled a bit.

"Maya! Yuji is being mean again." Maya's little sister, Saya, came over to where Kite and Maya were sitting.

"What did he do this time." Maya asked her.

"He tripped Yuri." Saya said and with that Maya stood up and made her way towards the playground. Kite followed her.

When they got to the park, Yuji was the one on the ground, pinned down by his sister. Kite had a surprised look on his face. Maya looked at the two and it looks could kill, the kids would be long dead by now.

"Get off!" Yuji yelled.

"Next time you trip me, I'm going to..." Yuri was inturuped when Maya pulled her up by the arm.

"Let's go!" Maya said and her siblings had a sad look on their faces.

They walked along a path with Kite following behind before he stopped by the bench where he and Maya were sitting at. Maya was going to talk to the kids and he felt that he shouldn't intrude. That was when Kite felt a change in the wind.

"I'm sorry about that," Maya began, "but I think I'm going to have to take them home."

"Maya look out!" Kite grabbed Maya and jumped out of the way as a laser beam came at them. It ended up hitting and blowing up the bench.

Kite and Maya were on the ground. Kite held his side as he dragged himself over to Maya to see if she was alright. To his relief, she was fine. When Kite looked up again, he saw a group of Ryaku going towards Maya's younger siblings. The little ones were scared. That was when Damain appeared. He had gone to see one of his friends and heard the explosion. He went in to try and save his siblings, but the Ryaku overpowered him. They were all surrounded.

"Well well well, looks like I hit the jackpot!" A voice yelled. Kite turned to see a bigger monster.

"Who the hell are you!" Kite yelled angrily.

"I am Zaku, top general of the Jiku army!" The monster said, taking pride.

"You dirty little..." Kite stopped as he was shot at again. He was sent flying back.

"Now that that's done, let's take these humans away and let Baishisu commence on his experiments." Zaku laughed.

"Not on my watch!" Zaku turned to see Kite standing again.

"You are a tough one. Guess I'll have to destroy with my sword." Zaku pulled out his sword from it was held on his back.

Kite pulled out his Kemono Battery. Zaku stopped in place to see what Kite was about to do. Maya looked up from the ground, still a little winded. Kite inserted the battery into his morpher. A hologram of the red ranger suit appeared over the morpher. He inseted his code into the morpher.

#001

"Kemono Striker! Henshin!" Kite yelled as he fired a ball of red light out of the Morpher. That ball of light turned into a spirit like animal. It appeared to be a tiger.

Kite was taken into another world. He stood in the middle of the jungle. The tiger ran around him until it attacked. Kite saw where the tiger came from and jumped backwards as the tiger spirit came towards him. It went through his body and a red suit formed on Kites body. Kite looked up as the tiger spirit came from above. Kite jumped into the air, and the spirit rotated around his head. It then went through his head and backed up into his face and the helmet formed. Kite landed in the center of the jungle. Then, in front of a red backdrop and in front of the tiger mecha, the red ranger made a pose as he punched the air with his fists. Red energy surrounded his fists.

When he was back in the regular world, he stood in front of Zaku. Zaku was covering his eyes because of the brightness that had occurred. When he moved his arm away, he saw the exact person who he had seen in his dreams.

Maya looked up at him and stared at him in shock. Her siblings also looked in shock. Even the Ryaku has stopped moving as they witnessed this.

"Furious Tiger!" He made a movement with his fists. "Kemono Red!" He yelled as he sent a burst of energy towards Zaku, who was sent flying back by this.

Maya was in shock along with her siblings. The Ryaku stood there looking on, not knowing what to do. Zaku got back up and dusted himself off.

"Stop standing and looking!" Zaku yelled at the footsoldiers, "Attack!" With that the footsoldiers began their attack on Kemono Red.

Red pulled out the sidearm he had on his left side. He pulled out a decent sized sword. Then me made the blade bigger by pulling out more of the blade. The held it up on his shoulder as he moved his finger down its side.

"Come and get it!" Red yelled as he slashed the monsters that had come to get him. He ran in a straight line taking out the monsters that came from the sides. He turned in time to see the monsters fall and explode. Unfortunately, more monsters showed up as they came out of the ground. Red was taken by surprise as he jumped up, a little spooked.

He kept slashing the monsters. He noticed that some of these monsters were now going towards the children again. Maya then punched in and kicked another. Red knew exactly what to do.

"Hey!" Red got the attention of the monsters, "Baka!" Red made a gesture to them that was clearly offensive to them. They all turned their attention to Red as they chased him. He brought them to the now empty playground. Everyone had fled when they heard what was happening.

Red fought them off with his sword. He got onto the playground and fought more of them. He slapped one on the head with his sword. He went down the slide and slashed the monsters surrounding the slide. He jumped into the air and slashed more as he came down. He got onto the swings.

"Weeeeee!" Red said as he swung back and forth hitting monsters all over the place. He jumped off the swing and slashed another. He proceeded to put away his Raiku Saber and pulled out his Raiku Blaster. He blasted the ones coming towards the playground. He spun around and blasted the monsters who were surrounding him.

"Who's next!" Red yelled out. He was then sent flying backwards by a slash of fire. He hit a tree and fell to the ground. Red looked up to see Zaku pulling back his sword into position.

"Stay down!" Zaku said is a furious tone.

"I don't stay down so easily." Red said as he got up and held his side.

"Maya, I'm scared!" Saya began to cry as she held onto her sister.

"Aren't you going to help him?!" Damian asked his sister, he was panicking.

"I'm not ready for it," Maya started as she hugged her younger sister, "Wait! How do you know about that!" Maya was surprised that Damain knew about the rangers.

"You think I couldn't hear you guys when you were talking about it on the way here." Damain told his sister.

"No! I'll handle this! You guys get out of here now!" Red yelled as he pulled out a battery.

He inserted the battery into his morpher. A hologram of a sword appeared over his Morpher. He pushed the weapon button on the morpher and then proceeded to punch in a code into the morpher.

#001

The number in the middle of his suit glowed red. A ball of red light came out and it transformed. A silloute of a sword appeared. When the light was gone, a weapon appeared. It was in fact a sword. It wasn't like the Raiku Saber. The sword looked to be a katana with the blade being silver and the handle being red and black in color. In the middle of the handle, was a golden circle engraving of a tiger.

"Tiger Sword!" Red called out as he grabbed the sword and moved it around, moving the sword around as if he were attacking. He then moved the sword so that it was going side to side. He traced his finger across the sword. Zaku began to run towards Kemono Red. Red saw this and began his charge towards his attacker.

They clashed where they had met in the middle. The burst of energy went throughout the park. They continued battling. Their swords continuously clashed. Red wasn't afraid of adding a few other moves in their as he kicked Zaku's side. Red jumped backwards as Zaku was preparing his sword to attack. Zaku looked at Red angrily. That was when a scream was heard.

Both of them turned around to look at the source of the scream. Red was in total shock. Maya was being held by her hand. The hand belonged to another monster. There were also groups of Ryaku. The other monster turned around revealing himself to be Kurasshuzoido.

"Kurasshuzoido?! But how?" Zaku questioned the other monster.

"I can only fight for a short time! So let's finish these losers." Kurasshuzoido began to laugh maniacally.

"Not if I have anything to say about it." Red jumped into the air but was hit directly by a fire attack from Kurasshuzoido.

Red fell to the ground. He looked up as he put his hand on his chest. He was hit badly and felt like he couldn't get back up. Red continued to look as Kurasshuzoido was preparing his next attack. His next victim was Maya. In his head, Red screamed out to her.

That was when a miracle happened. If you call it a miracle. Just as Kurasshuzoido was laughing and preparing his attack, he was hit on his side and was sent flying. Maya was let go and fell to the ground in an instant. She looked up to see another girl.

"You ok?" The girl asked her.

"Yea." Maya responded.

"Madoka!" Red came in running, still having his hand on his chest.

"Ani! You should have called me!" Madoka hit Red on the head.

"Wait! My siblings!" Maya yelled and turned around.

She stopped as she witnessed two boys take down the monsters that were surrounding the younger children. They took the children and brought them over to Maya.

"Arigatou!" Maya bowed all the way down. She then hugged all her siblings, even bringing in Damain.

"Ani, these are two of the other rangers that will help us on defeating the bad guys." Madoka said cheerfully as she threw her hands up.

"Nice to meet you!" Tsubasa said as he was panting and to tired to bow his head. Sosuke just made a gesture with his head, saying 'what's up'.

"Nice to meet you." Red said to them.

"So what should we do?" Madoka asked.

"Help Maya and get her siblings out of here." Red said.

Madoka looked at her brother in confusion. She knew that civilians were always supposed to be helped but she didn't know why her brother hadn't asked any one of them to stay in help. She was going to protest and help him, but she had the feeling that there was a reason for that request. She obliged and so did the others even though Tsubasa also looked like he was going to protest.

"You are not going anywhere!" Kurasshuzoido said as he returned and was powering up his hands for a fierce attack.

"Go!" Red yelled as he ran towards the monster.

The others started running, helping Maya's siblings as they went along. Red clashed with Kurasshuzoido's attack. Fortunately, he was able to destroy the attack.

"Is that all you got!" Red said as he was catching his breath.

"Why you little..." Kurasshuzoido didn't bother to finish his sentence as he began to charge up another attack.

Red pulled out his blaster and sent three laser bullet attacks towards the monster. His charging attack blew up in his face as he was sent backwards. He held his ground and began to run towards Kemono Red. Red pulled up his sword and ran towards his target. The clashes once more. They stayed close as their blades stayed connected. Neither of them refused to move.

"You got guts, human!" Kurasshuzoido admires Reds power.

"And you got a serious case of stupidity." Red said, then he pulled out a Kemono Battery from his belt buckle. He inserted it into the bottom of the sword.

"What is that?!" Kurasshuzoido sounded worried.

"You'll see!" Red smirked under his helmet.

Suddenly, Reds Tiger Sword lit on fire. Kurasshuzoido was surprised by this and Red took his chance. He kicked the monster in the gut. The monster rolled backwards on the ground. He got up immediately. Red pulled up his sword.

"Tiger Fireblaze Attack!" Red yelled as his swords fire grew and he sent a slash of fire towards the monster. The slash transformed into an attacking tiger as it came in for the attack.

The attack hit directly and an explosion occurred. Red looked up to see the fire that was left behind. As the smoke cleared, Red was left in shock. He noticed that a sword was there. Zaku showed himself through the smoke.

"We'll get you next time Red!" Zaku yelled. Red noticed that sparks were coming out of Kurasshuzoido. They then retreated as they suddenly disappeared into thin air. Red looked down in defeat. He sighed, but then remembered that Maya and the others were on their way to safety.

Red quickly unmorphed and ran towards the direction where the others had gone. His had angry thoughts and worried thoughts. He hoped they made it out ok. He continued to run, not noticing the drone that was watching him right out in the open.

-0-0-0-0-

"Hurry and get in there!" Zaku said as he practically kicked Kurasshuzoido into Baishisu's lab.

"I told you, you weren't ready." Baishisu shamed Kurasshuzoido. He immediately began work on his computer.

"Try to finish his upgrades fast or I'll have you head!" Zaku warned as he walked out of the room.

"Geez what's with him?" Kurasshuzoido asked.

"He's always like that." Baishisu said to his monster as he attached various needles into him.

"I promise I won't let him down!" Kurasshuzoido said as he prepared for his arrangement.

"Don't make promises you can't keep." Baishisu said, warning Kurasshuzoido.

Zaku walked down the hall and was making his way to the throne room. When he walked in, he noticed that Jiku was looking out of the big window in front of his throne. He walked in slowly trying not to interrupt his masters thoughts.

"Zaku?" Zaku stopped in place as he heard his name being called by Jiku.

"Yes Master." Zaku quickly got down to one knee and bowed his head.

"What happened out there today?" Jiku continued looking out the window. He saw a group of monkeys hanging from trees.

"You see, Red proved to be more of a challenge than I thought." Zaku answered his master honestly.

"You underestimated him?" Jiku started to have an irritated tone.

"No master, of course not." Zaku said.

"You did!" Jiku turned around and looked at Zaku.

"Master..." Zaku was zapped.

"Shut up!" Jiku said, "You underestimated your enemy."

Zaku was struggling as he was getting shocked. "Please master." Zaku pleaded as he continued getting zapped. It lasted a few more minutes, then Jiku stopped. He looked very displeased.

"You must get stronger Zaku!" Jiku made his way over to his throne. He called for the Ryaku to bring him something to drink. They brought him a cup of wine. He took a sip before gesturing for the footsoldiers to get Zaku a cup.

"Thank you master! You are too kind." Zaku said as he received his cup of wine.

"Just don't disappoint me so much!" Jiku said as he held his head.

"Another headache, sir." Zaku asked.

"I'm going to bed. Let me know of Kurasshuzoido's progress later." With that, Jiku left for his quarters. Zaku finished his wine and gave his glass to one of the Ryaku. He looked out the window and the let out a burst of power out of pure anger.

He made his way back to the lab. When he entered, he saw Baishisu panicking as he ran back and forth looking for something. He noticed that Kurasshuzoido was on fire. He was also asleep. Ryaku also ran around, panicking. No one knew what to do. Zaku slapped his face and walked out. He made his way to his own quarters. He need a rest after what had happened.

Curse you Red! Zaku thought to himself as he walked on.

Kite continued to run. He didn't see where they had gone. He ran past a few people on the street and asked about them but none of them knew who he was talking about. He ran down the plaza as he looked around for them. That was when he noticed something odd. More like someone odd.

Kite made his way over to a table. When he got there, his suspicions were proven. There was an old man sitting on at the table. Kite looked at him as he got closer to the table.

"Hello, Kite." the man said as he continued looking at the people passing by.

"Grandfather." Kite said as he looked at the man and bowed his head.

"Go ahead, sit down." Kite's grandfather signaled to him without shifting his attention.

Kite sat down without a word. He looked at his grandfather and then moved his head to see what he was looking at. He saw a young couple sitting at a different table, playing around with each other. His grandfather then pulled out a stack of playing cards and looked over to his grandson.

"You know how to play." Kites grandfather said.

"Depends what we are playing." Kite said to his grandfather.

"BS." Kite looked in surprise. He didn't remember how to play that game. He had played it with a few friends he had made in America and he taught it to his grandfather. Which was leading him to an important question. He shuffled the cards himself and put the deck down after he gave his grandfather and himself cards.

"Grandfather," Kite began, "How are you..."

"You know, I was always hoping you would find a young lady like that man has over there." The older man said as he studied his hand and he put down a card, that was supposed to be an ace, upside down.

"Well maybe one day I will." Kite said as he looked at his own deck and put down a two upside down. Or maybe I already have Kite thought to himself as he remembered Maya's sweet smile. Too soon. I just met her after all Kite rejected the idea of him and Maya going out.

"How's Madoka doing?" Kite looked over in surprise. The topic changed so quickly.

"She's doing good. She's doing better." Kite answered as he saw his grandpa put down another card.

"That's good. That girl is going to turn out as strong as your mother." The older man chuckled as Kite put down a four.

"Yea, I really think so." Kite said as his grandfather out down a card.

"You on the other hand," he paused studying Kite as he put down a card, "Have a lot of your father in you. You only have bits of your mother." The older man studied his cards.

Kite remembered his parents. He remembered their warm hugs and their smiles. A single tear came from his eye at those memories. He tried to keep the memory of that tragic day away but that tragic day will always stay locked in his mind. He played a six and then looked over at his grandfather.

"Grandfather? Why? Why did you choose us?" Kite asked as the man played a card.

"You all have the potential." The older man said. Kite put down an eight.

"So you chose all of us?" Kite asked the question. He desperately wanted to know who had chosen the others.

"Of course I chose all of you. It's my duty as the Kemono Protector." The old man played his card. Kite looked at him suspiciously. He wanted to call him out but he decided against it.

"So we all have the power to defeat this evil." Kite looked on at the people passing by after he played his ten.

"Yes, you all do. You will all make us proud." Kites grandfather played his card.

"I hope you are right Grandfather. I don't know if I can be their leader." Kite admitted honestly. He played a queen.

"Just protect them all, just like you protect your sister. You have the qualities of a good leader. You must embrace them. You will be great." Kites grandfather played his card.

"I will try my hardest grandfather." He played his card.

"BS!" Kite was caught off guard. He looked at his grandfather who continued looking at his own cards. Kite looked and didn't know what to say. His grandfather looked up, expecting him to flip over the card. Kite did so and proved what his grandfather had said was true. He didn't have an ace so he played a king.

"How did you.." Kite asked as he looked up. To his surprise, his grandfather was totally gone. He looked back down. The cards on top blew away revealing the cards on the bottom. Kite's eyes widened. The cards all had pictures of the rangers. He was in total shock and awe as he read a different card which had a sort of letter.

Kite picked it up and read the letter:

To my dearest grandchildren. You mean the world to me. When you were born, my heart nearly stopped. I noticed that I was getting old. But as you grew, I realized that it was not a total bad thing. We may have skipped a generation, but my decision to do that was correct. You all have the makings of a hero. You and your team will be able to do it. Go out there and stop evil. Go Kemonorangers!

Kite looked at the letter. Tears ran down his cheeks. He looked up at the sky. We won't let you down, grandfather Kite said mentally. He slid the card into his pocket. The others disappeared. Kite got up and walked away from the table. He needed to find the others fast.

"Ok! I think we are cleared." Madoka fell down and sat against a wall, trying to catch her breath.

"That's a relief!" Sosuke said as he stretched his arms and yawned.

"Arigatou!" Maya bowed her head towards all of them.

"No problem." Tsubasa said as he gave her a smile.

"Well, Kite should be looking for us soon. There's no way those monsters would be able to fight for long." Madoka told them as she fiddled her fingers.

"Why's that?" Sosuke asked as he looked over to her.

"I noticed something on the monster that showed up and grabbed Maya's siblings." Madoka said, remembering the girls name.

"What was it?" Tsubasa asked.

"He was still weak from before. He had some sort of needle jammed into his side. He might have been trying to make himself stronger." Madoka said to them all as they looked at her.

"You have faced those monsters before?" Maya was the one who was asking the question.

"We only fought the one that grabbed Maya's siblings. The other one was new to me." Madoka said as she reached into her skirts pocket. She pulled out a candy bar. She opened it and began to eat it.

"Well then, that's a problem." Tsubasa said as he paced back and forth. He had his hand on his chin and was thinking of ways to defeat both monsters.

"Why is that a problem exactly?" Sosuke asked his brother as he leaned against the wall.

"If we don't know our enemy well, then we could end up being defeated badly." Tsubasa said as he continued to pace.

"Then we just have to know everything about our enemy." Sosuke looked up into the sky thinking about it.

"Yes, but it will be hard. You saw what kind of powers they have." Tsubasa said with a firm tone.

"You are confusing me!" Sosuke our both his hands on his head. He didn't know what his brother was talking about.

"Hey," Madoka manages to snap Maya our if her thoughts, "Are your siblings ok." Both girls looked over to see them. Damian was leaning against the wall. He had his earbuds in. Yuji was next to him, sleeping. The three young girls were also sleeping. Maya stroked Saya's hair. She was sleeping on Maya's lap.

"Yea. They are just tired that's all." Maya said to Madoka with a bright smile.

"Then we should get them to your house. They need the rest after what happened today." Madoka said, also putting on a bright smile.

"What about your brother?" Maya asked.

"I'll call him. It's probably what I should've done the second we stopped running." Madoka giggled, realizing how stupid she was for not calling Kite right away.

"You should. I feel like he's really worried about you." Maya said as she rested her head against the wall she was sitting up against.

"Hey! You two! Stop arguing." Madoka told the two bickering siblings who were now physically fighting. When the girls looked up, Tsubasa had Sosuke in a headlock before they stopped.

"Fine!" They both said turning around so that they weren't facing each other.

"Great! Now that that's settled, we have to get Maya's siblings to their house so that they can rest." Madoka said as she got up and stretched her arms.

"Nani!" both boys said simultaneously.

"Let's go!" Madoka said, giving a bright smile to everyone around.

With that, they were off. Maya carried Saya in her arms while Yuri stayed on her back. Madoka carried Mei on her back. Sosuke carried Yuji on his back. Tsubasa insisted on giving Damian a piggyback ride, but Damian refused. They walked on to Maya's house. They passed under a bridge and kept walking as the sun set.

On top of the bridge, Kite ran to the other side. He looked both ways. He didn't know where they could be. He slumped down on the ground. The truth was that he was tired. He looked over at the sun setting. It's already that time of day Kite thought to himself. The day hadn't felt long but the day was already over.

Kite tried to fight off his sleep, but it was getting the better of him. His head kept falling and he couldn't stay awake. He got up again, and pushed himself to continue. He didn't know where to go but he had to look for a couple more minutes. He stopped himself and reached into his pocket. I really am an idiot. Kite thought to himself as he remembered that he could just call his sister. He tried to turn it on only to realize that it was out of charge. He fell down defeated. He decided to just go home. If Madoka wasn't there, then he would look for her in the morning. He knew that she was safe with the others.

Unfortunately his plans of sleep were taken from him. Ryaku rose from the ground. They brought out their weapons and prepared for a fight. The monsters were alone, but there was tons of them. Kite didn't waste time.

"Kemono Striker!" Kite called upon his Morpher which appeared on his wrist. He pulled out a battery and out it into his morpher. The hologram of his suit appeared over the morpher. He then proceeded to shot out his Animal spirit. "Henshin!"

"Kemono Red!" Kite yelled as he was transformed into his ranger alter ego. With that he pulled out his Raiku Saber and began to slash away at monsters.

"Why is Kurasshuzoido not out there!" Zaku's voice boomed.

Baishisu almost dropped his computer. He looked up to see the lion like monster enter the room. He ran for cover but Zaku had already seen him.

"Why did you send the Ryaku to attack?!" Zaku's question didn't sound like a question at all.

"Kurasshuzoido wore himself out today. He shouldn't have fought and now his upgrade time will take longer." Baishisu headed back over to where his main computer was.

Zaku growled at Baishisu as he left. Baishisu was left to work as Kurasshuzoido remained asleep. He started typing a lot of different things. He inseted many files onto some mini chips that he sent into Kurasshuzoido's blood stream.

"Here we are!" Maya announced as they arrived at her house. It was already dark and the street lights were th only things that lit up their surrondings.

They entered Maya's home and helped her with her siblings. After putting them all to bed, Maya offered everyone some tea and cookies if they wanted it. Tsubasa agreed along with Madoka. Sosuke wanted to go home but just rolled with it.

They sat down at the table in the dining room. Maya quickly made tea and poured it into four cups. She put them on a tray and opened a bag of cookies. She took the tray over to the table. She gave each person their cup of tea and they began to eat cookies happily.

"This is good tea." Sosuke said as he sipped more of his tea.

"Yea! Maya you should be proud. Your tea tastes delicious." Madoka said as she took another cookie.

"It's just tea. I make it like any other person." Maya said as she purrs more tea into Sosuke's cup.

"Anyways," Tsubasa sipped from his cup, "We need to learn about our enemies quickly or we will end up being destoyed easily."

"That's right." Madoka looked down at her cup and stared at it.

"Cmon guys," Sosuke started, "Tsubasa, Maya, we haven't fought against these enemies yet. Madoka has. With the information that Madoka has, we can figure out some sort of plan to defeat them." Tsubasa stared at his brother blankly.

"That actually sounded smart." Madoka said, taking the words out of Tsubasa's mouth.

"That's right." Maya surprised everyone.

"Ok Madoka, we got all night. Explain your first battle with those monsters." Tsubasa had said and with that, all eyes were on Madoka.

"Ok." Madoka nodded her head. Madoka began to think. She looked up at the ceiling.

"Whenever you are ready, princess." Sosuke said and then he was punched in the side of the arm by Tsubasa.

"I got it," Madoka looked back at everyone, "The monster is based of a Prey Mantis. That's why he looks like one. His hands can become some sort of sharp blades. With those blades, he can use many attacks. The time me and my brother fought him, he used some sort of fire attack on us. That's what I can remember. I know there is more, but that's all that comes to mind." Madoka stopped and sipped some tea.

"Ok. Then let's come up with a plan. We know he uses his hands as blades. He can also use element attacks based on the fact that he used a fire attack against Madoka and her brother." Tsubasa got up and began to pace back and forth.

"So maybe if we use a blade of our own, we can counter his attacks right back towards him." Maya took out her Kemono Battery.

"I think my brothers Tiger Sword is a good enough sword to do that. It's better than our standard sidearms." Madoka sipped her tea again.

"Yes. Maybe he can somehow defeat the monster that way." Tsubasa stopped and looked over at everyone.

"Then it's settled. We fight off the monster with the help of Madoka's brother." Sosuke sat back and enjoyed another cookie. He closed his eyes as everyone else watched him.

"What a great plan everyone!" A mysterious voice made everyone in the room jump. Sosuke fell backwards, Tsubasa put up his fists, Maya looked around furiously, and Madoka got up and out up her own fists.

"Who's there?" Tsubasa asked as he looked around.

"Don't worry." The voice came from the hallway. Damian walked out of the hallway. His eyes glowing.

"Damian, what's wrong?" Maya asked. Sosuke got up from where he fell. He looked over at the boy.

"Glowing eyes, huh?" Sosuke ran towards Damian and before he knew it, he was flipped over and sent flying into the couch.

"And that kids, is how you don't fight." Damian said as he looked back over at them.

"Wait, I recognize that voice." Madoka looked at Damian and walked closer.

"Great to see you again, Madoka." Madoka's eyes widened. She got closer as tears formed in her eyes.

"Grandfather." Madoka let herself go and she hugged the boy that housed the spirit of her late grandfather.

"What's going on?" Sosuke got up and held his side.

"Yea, I would like to know that as well." Tsubasa asked.

"I'm sorry that I have taken over this young mans body but I had to come and see you." The spirit said, noting that Maya was really worried.

"Why are you here, grandfather?" Madoka asked.

"Well I need to talk to you about your powers." The spirit told them.

"Makes sense." Tsubasa scratched his head.

"I'm sorry I haven't introduced myself. I am Tategami Kenji." The spirit bowed, making Damian's body bow as well.

"Nice to meet you," Maya said, "But why have you taken over my brothers body."

"I needed a suitable host and your brother fit that perfectly. After my last time here on earth, my body became week and it had to go into a coma." Kenji sat down at the table and grabbed a cookie.

"So you chose her brother because he was a suitable host." Sosuke asked the question.

"I chose him not only for that, but because I could get closer to you guys." Kenji ate more cookies and drank tea out of an extra cup.

"Well, at least you are here grandfather." Madoka hugged Kenji.

"Yes. Well before we begin, I believe we all need reintroductions. That is a key to a good team. Go ahead." Kenji said drinking more tea. Everyone looked at each other.

"Ok then. I am Tategami Madoka. I represent the Cheetah. I am Kemono Yellow. Nice to meet you all." Madoka bowed before everyone, making her introduction.

"Splendid." Kenji ate more cookies.

"I am Mizuchi Tsubasa. I represent the Shark. I am supposed to be Kemono Blue. Nice to meet you all." Tsubasa bowed.

"Well, I am Mizuchi Sosuke. I represent the Bull. I am Kemono Black. Can't wait to fight off the bad guys." Sosuke bowed.

"Ok. Hello everyone, I am Suzuki Maya. I represent the Phoenix. I am Kemono Pink. It is a pleasure to work with you all." Maya bowed.

"That is wonderful. Now I have a time limit so let's get to the explaining." Kenji out down the tea and cookies and looked at everyone. "Long ago, lived ancient tribes. These tribes represented animals. There were more that 50 tribes. The first 20 of these tribes came together to bring forth the power that you now hold. You were chosen to represent a tribe. Unfortunately, an evil overlord known as Jiku destroyed each tribe. The first 20 representatives were able to stop him and sent him off to space. Now that he is back you must master the powers of the tribe you represent. You must also find the secrets of the other tribes. There is a lot to do and to sag but my time is coming to an end."

"Grandfather, don't go." Madoka hugged Damian's body.

"I know you will make me proud. You and your brother. You and your friends will make all of us proud." Kenji hugged Madoka back.

"I miss you." Madoka whispered as she burst into tears.

"Goodbye." A spirit came out of Damian's body and lit up the whole room. Everyone covered their eyes. The light disappeared and the room returned to its normal color.

Damian's sleeping body fell to the ground as Madoka now stood over it crying. Maya came over and hugged Madoka. Tsubasa grabbed Damian's body and pulled it over to the couch. He set Damian down. He looked up to see Sosuke leaning against a wall, holding his battery. Tsubasa then pulled out his own. He studied it.

Tribes huh? Tsubasa thought to himself. He tighten his grip on the battery.

"Don't worry Madoka. I know he is with you in spirit." Tsubasa looked up to see Maya comforting Madoka.

"Yea. We will fight this evil, Jiku guy or whatever his name is and win." Sosuke was the one to speak. Everyone turned to look at him but he continued looking at his battery. He had a tighter grip on his battery. His teeth were showing as he gritted them. Madoka moves over to him. Her hands behind her back.

"Thank you for trying to make us feel better, Sosuke." Sosuke was caught by surprise when Madoka gave him a hug. A tight hug if anything. Her chest was against his and he could feel his face getting red. He didn't know what to do and hugged her back, closing his eyes.

Tsubasa looked at them. He looked over at Maya who was smiling as she saw the two. Tsubasa knew that he was one of the oldest and had to protect those younger than him. He knew he had to fight. He remembered what his teachers had told him when he was in England. He knew what he had to do.

"Well guys. Guess we have to get a goodnights rest." Tsubasa told them all.

They all looked over at him. Madoka stopped hugging Sosuke and they both stood there looking over at Tsubasa. Maya also looked and smiled. They were ready to unite and stop the evil Jiku from taking the Earth. They would get in his way.

Tsubasa motioned to Sosuke so that they could leave. Sosuke left his position and walked towards Tsubasa. They were going out the door when Maya calles out to them. A rainstorm had started.

"Why don't you guys stay here for the night. It doesn't look like that rain is clearing up anytime soon." Maya said to them. They both turned around and looked at Maya who was all smiles.

"That sounds like a great idea." Madoka said as she put her arm around Maya.

"You guys do know we just met today right." Sosuke said before feeling a nudge. He looked over to see that Tsubasa was the one that nudged him.

"That would be great." Tsubasa said as he closed the door. He automatically went to the couch to help put Damian in his room. Maya caught on to this and showed him the way.

Sosuke sighed and Madoka smiled. When they came back, they came back with blankets and pillows. Madoka helped them and they set up two beds. Madoka and Maya were going to sleep in Maya's room and Tsubasa and Sosuke would stay in the living room, sleeping on the floor.

The rain fell harder. They could hear it hitting the roof. Tsubasa and Sosuke were ready for bed. Madoka had borrowed pajamas from Maya. They were all in the living room, chatting about the team and their enemy. They spent the night talking away.

The rain poured down. The floor was wet. The water ran down paths. There was mud all over the grass. There was a woman walking through the rain. She walked hastily. She walked down the path near the bridge. She was hoping to cross it with no problems. Unfortunately, her plan wouldn't go the way she wanted to.

Near the bridge, Kemono Red struggled against the minions. The more he destroyed, the more they showed up. He kept slashing left and right.

"Don't you guys got something better to do." Red said as he slashed.

The monsters kept coming at him. He pulled up his Tiger Sword. He held it up to his face. He then slashed more monsters.

"Come on guys. This is getting annoying. My suit is wet and it's very uncomfortable." Red kept bantering as he fight on.

The woman came walking up. Red noticed her. She noticed them and almost fell backwards. She screamed and caught the attention of the monsters. They immediately targeted her. Red ran towards the woman and slashed the monster that was close to her. He stood in front of her and protected her.

"Stay close and don't leave. The floors too wet and if you run you could hurt yourself." Red told her and she nodded. They moved at the same time. He slashed the monsters that would come at him. They made their way over to the bridge. They crossed it and Red picked up the woman. He began to run, ignoring his own warning.

The monsters continued their pursuit. Red ran as far as he could. The woman held on tightly. When they stopped, no monsters were in sight. Red put down the woman. She still held on to him. The truth was that she wasn't that much older than him. She might have even been his age. She was scared and she was shaking.

Then, out of nowhere, hordes of monsters appeared. They moved in a freaky way. Red looked around and held the woman. Red looked like he was out of options. That was when he heard something that made him sigh of relief. The woman looked up into the sky. There was now thunder and lightning. It was a huge thunderstorm. That was when she heard what Kemono Red has heard.

It was a loud roar. The roar was loud enough to be heard all the way down at the harbor. The thunder overhead boomed. The roar was heard again. A huge figure moved towards where Red and the woman were. The monsters took notice in this too. They looked up as the dark figure moved closer. Green eyes flashed in the darkness. It stopped and roared as lightning flashed, revealing the figure. The huge figure looked like a tiger. It came closer into the light as more lightning flashed.

The tiger wasn't just a regular tiger. It was a mechanized tiger. The tiger was red with black markings that looked like its stripes. It's eyes were green. It had a tiger stylized number 1 on its side, similar to Reds number on his suit. Red looked up and under his helmet he had a big smile. The woman looked up from where she stood. She was still hugging Kemono Red. The tiger mecha slashed the monsters that were on the ground. It roared as it hit them. It sent them flying everywhere as they were destroyed.

When everything was cleared, the tiger mecha roared again. It looked down and growled. Red looked up at his mecha in pure happiness. It was amazing. It was like being able to get your hands on your favorite thing. He had a feeling of pure joy. He then remembered about the woman that was next to him. He looked over at her and could see the worried look in her eyes. She just wanted to be safe and sound in her home. He thought against it, but he demorphed in front of her. He gave her a reassuring smile.

"Everything's ok now." Kite said to her as he comforted her. She was able to give a smile. Kite then noticed that thee was no rain. When he looked around, he saw that it was still raining. He looked up to see that the tiger mecha was covering them.

"Arigatou." The woman said as she hugged Kite from the side. Kite looked at her with a bigger smile. He decided that he was going to take her home.

"Arigatou! Tiger!" The Tiger Zord looked down at him and roared in delight before it took off. Kite and the woman were now standing under a roof. It was a bus stop. They were standing their just to see if the rain would light up. When it did, they walked on, the woman continued to hold onto Kite. He gave her his jacket so that she wouldn't get more wet than she already was.

When they got to her house, kite walked her up to her door. She opened it and offered him to come him. He came in and looked around. It wasn't really a house, it was an apartment. She brought out some tea and poured it into two cups. Kite was given back his jacket and he set it down on a chair. Kite sat down on the couch. The woman offered him the tea.

"My name is Aya." The woman told him. Kite gave a smile.

"I am Kite." The looked at each other. Aya couldn't help but blush. They sipped more tea as they talked. She couldn't stop thanking him for saving her. Kite noticed that she was getting closer. He was relaxing and didn't really care. He looked over at her as she continued talking.

That was when she was totally close to him. Their legs were touching. Aya put her head on his shoulder. Kite couldn't help but smile. He knew that young woman always liked to get close to those who save them. She had her eyes closed as she snuggled into his body. Kite was looking like he was going to fall asleep. He felt a shift and opened his eyes again.

He saw Aya looking him straight in the eyes. She had unbuttoned the top of her shirt. Kite could see her chest. He looked her in the eyes. He couldn't do it. He had never done it and ever since he met Maya, he's been having some dirty thoughts about her. He looked back down and back up. She unbuttoned the bottom buttons. Kite could see her bra. He looked her back in the eyes. He felt like this would just be taking advantage of someone. Although she was clearly going to let him, it just didn't feel right.

Aya came closer to him. He felt himself freeze. Before he knew it, his lips were on her lips. She was kissing him and he kissed her back. He had kissed girls before so he knew what he was doing. He put his hand on her cheek. They continued kissing despite all the shifting. She put her hands under his shirt and could feel what years of workouts. Kite grabbed her and brought her closer to him. Her felt her chest against his. He stopped kissing her lips and moved down to her neck. He sucked in her neck gently. He was now on top of her. He could feel his manhood sticking up. He moved from her neck down to her breasts. He kissed each breast. That was when he moved her hand to her neck. With a little massage, she was out like a light. He came back up and kissed her again on the lips.

Kite got up from his position and fixed his shirt. He picked up the woman and took her to her room. He placed on her bed and put the covers over her. He wrote a note with a piece of paper that was lying around. He left it on her nightstand and left the room. He closed it slowly. He moved over and locked the door to the apartment. The rain had stopped. He put on his jacket. He turned out all the lights and made sure that everything was as it was when he arrived. Kite opened a window and jumped through it. He closed the window from the outside and walked away. He was heading home.

He stopped and looked over his shoulder. From far, he could see the tiger mecha looking down at him from a far away hill. It roared into the night sky before it ran off in the other direction. Kite smiled and walked off into the night.

Madoka and Maya walked into the living room sleepily. When they got to the living room, they noticed that Tsubasa was already up and was doing something in the kitchen. The beds were cleaned up. They then noticed Sosuke sleeping on the couch.

"What's that smell?" Madoka said as she smelled whatever Tsubasa was cooking.

"It's an English breakfast, that's all I will say." Tsubasa told the girls as they walked in.

When he was done, Tsubasa served four plates and put five other plates to the side. When everything was sorted, he gave each girl a plate and put one down for Sosuke who was just entering the room. Their plates had bacon, sausage, an English muffin, and eggs. He also served them drinks. He gave Madoka and Sosuke orange juice and he gave Maya and himself some coffee.

"Where did you get all these ingredients?"Maya asked him.

"I got up early. I always wake up early." Tsubasa said as he finished setting up the kids plates and Damian's plate. They all stayed up late last night talking. It was already ten thirty in the morning. The kids walked in and noticed the food. Happily, they each took their plate. Damian grabbed his plate as well and walked out of the kitchen with his hand on his head.

After they finished eating, they went back into the kitchen. Madoka and Maya went to go change. Madoka wore what she had worn the day before. Maya wore a pink shirt with a black sweater over it. She wore blue jeans and her shoes. They turned on the tv just to have nose in the background. They were all still tired. Maya and Madoka closed their eyes from time to time and Tsubasa and Sosuke were doing a good job of fighting off their sleep.

That was when they saw the news. They all looked sleepily. When they saw it they couldn't believe their eyes. They even wiped their eyes to make sure it was true. Kurasshuzoido was back and was attacking the city. He looked stronger than before. They quickly made their way out of the house. Maya screamed back to Damian that he was in charge.

Madoka and Maya were wide awake now. Tsubasa and Sosuke were fighting their sleep and they were heading for the park. The ran down the path until they saw the monster.

"Destroy it all!" Kurasshuzoido laughed diabolically.

"Stop!" Madoka yelled as they arrived.

"Who said that?!" Kurasshuzoido turned around and saw the four young people arrive.

"We did! We are going to stop you!" Maya yelled.

"We are going to smash you face in!" Sosuke yelled as he cracked his fists.

"We will protect this planet from the likes of you." Tsubasa said as he put his hand up against his head.

"I will destroy you all." Kurasshuzoido called upon his minions. They rose up from the ground.

"Ryaku." Madoka said as she got into her fighting position.

Suddenly, the footsoldiers were shot and were sent flying backwards. Everyone was surprised and they looked to where the shots were fired from. When they saw where it had come from, they were surprised. It was Kite who had out his Raiku Blaster.

"Kite!" Madoka calles out to her brother.

"Nice to see you!" Kite called out to them as he arrived to where they were standing.

"Ani, you are still alive. I knew it." Madoka hugged her brother.

"You thought I died?!" Kite asked in a surprised tone.

"You are about to die anyways." Kurasshuzoido said as he sent his minions to go after them.

"You guys know tha basics now, right?" Kite asked the other three.

"Yea! Let's do this!" Tsubasa answered for all of them. The sun shined down on them as they prepared their morpher.

"Wait are we ready?!" Sosuke said as he sounded like he was going to panic.

"Yes! Now let's go!" Madoka yelled.

They pushed the button on their wristband and their henshin devices appeared. They each pulled out their own Kemono Battery and prepared it. The opened their morpher and put the battery inside. A hologram of their suits appeared over their morphers. They all were ready to go.

"Kemono Striker!" They all yelled. They then inserted their morph codes.

"Henshin!" They pressed the GO! button. They shot balls of light from their morphers. The lights turned into animal spirits.

The morphing sequence begins:

It went through his head and backed up into his face forming the helmet. He landed back in the middle of the ring.

Yellow energy surrounded her hands.

Maya was in the sky. She began to freefall. There was a phoenix flying around her before it came in and attacked. The phoenix came from above and went through her body and formed a pink suit. Maya shifts her body so that her feet were pointing down, preparing to land. She lands on the ground, one knee and one hand on the ground and she looks up. The Phoenix head goes through her head and backs up into her face forming the helmet. In front of a pink backdrop and the phoenix mecha with its wings out, her arms pointed out and she flapped them once like a phoenx does making it look like she had wings. Her arms remained out as her left arm going up while the right arm was going down in front of her body.

The morphing sequence ends.

"We look awesome!" Sosuke jumped up into the air with his fist up.

"I will destroy you all." Kurasshuzoido yelled. As he got closer, Red pulled out his blaster and shot the ground. When the smoke cleared, the Rangers were gone.

"Up here ugly!" Sosuke mocked the monster that looked around everywhere trying to find them. He finally looked up at a nearby low rooftop and saw them standing on top.

"What's going on?!" Kurasshuzoido was now surrounded by his footsoldiers. They all looked up in confusion.

"Furious Tiger!" Red yelled as he spun around and punched the air, "Kemono Red!"

Black got on one knee to Red's right and stuck his right hand out and blue got on one knee to Red's left and stuck out his left arm. "Kemonoranger!" They all yelled in unison as their logo, the hawk, appeared behind them. As soon as it disappeared, they returned to their regular positions.

"Alright everyone!" Red pulled out his Raiku Saber and spun it around in his hand, "Let's do this!" Everyone else followed and pulled out their swords. They all then jumped off the roof and proceeded to attack.

"Get them!" Kurasshuzoido yelled and the Ryaku began to run as they pulled out their weapons.

Red came into contact with the monsters first followed by everyone else. He slashed a bunch of monsters. He then pushed his sword into one of the Ryaku. He then pushed him as he lifted him off the ground. He piled up two more before pulling out a Kemono Battery. He pushed it into his sword and pushed a button on the sword. The sword automatically lit up on fire. He spun it around as the Ryaku were sent flying. They burned to ash.

"I love this battery." Red said as he continued his assault on the monsters.

Blue slashed monsters all around him. He dodged their many attacks. He was happy that he had taken those fencing classes. He moved his sword back and forth. He even blocked an attack by putting his sword to his back. He then pushed the middle of the belt buckle. He pulled out a Kemono Battery. He was following Red's example. He put it into his sword and he moved the blade in circles. Water began to form around his sword. He then unleashed a barrage of water wave attacks. The monsters were destroyed.

"That was easy." He said remembering what one of his teachers used to always say about things. He ran off towards more monsters.

Black kicked and slashed as many monsters as he could. He ran down a path with the monsters following him. He then supported himself by jumping off a tree and coming straight for the monsters. He successfully slashed a lot of them that he felt that he needed to do it again. He pulled out his Bull Kemono Battery. He put it into his sword and could feel the power surging through him.

"Let's do that again!" He supported himself and jumped off a tree again and went straight for a group of monsters. A spirit bull formed around his body as he charged right into the monsters. He felt dizzy and almost fell over. "That was amazing." He almost vomited into his helmet. He then attacked more monsters who were coming at him.

Yellow ran down the path fast. She looked back and saw no monsters. Then they appeared out of the ground. She had a disgusted look under her helmet and proceeded to attack. She slashed a few and dodged attacks. She used her speed to her advantage and took out a line of monsters. She pulled out a Kemono Battery. She inserted it into her sword and it was enveloped in yellow energy. She used her speed again and took out a whole horde.

"Don't mess with us!" She slapped one of the monsters, that was still semi alive, on the head with her sword continuously.

Pink was trying to figure out how to use her wings. Monsters came at her with their axes. She felt fear surge through. Then her wings became bigger and were attached to her arms. She looked down in shock. She looked up again to see the monsters. She jumped backwards and jumped off a tree and was sent flying forwards. She slashed a few of them and then flew up into the air. She pulled out a Kemono Battery as she let herself free fall back down to the ground. Her sword had pink energy surrounding it. She then came down like a fighter jet and pulled up. She then slashed monsters with her sword, making them instantly explode.

"Amazing!" She landed back on the ground.

"That was great guys." Red said as the team reunited. Then they were blasted back. They looked up to see different monsters. Kite knew who they were. They were the middle class of Ravagers. They were known as Gadorabaja. Kite just called them Gadoras. They had straight backs and looked more like cyborgs. They had swords instead of axes.

"What do we do now?" Maya asked him.

"This," Red pushes the middle of his belt. It opened up and he pulled out a Kemono Battery. It was his personal weapon battery. He looked over at everyone else. Madoka automatically moved to take out hers. The others followed Madoka's lead. They each had them out, "Now!"

They pushed the weapon button on their morpher and inserted their batteries. A hologram of their weapons appeared over their morphers. They then inserted their codes.

#002

#003

#004

#005

The numbers in the middle of their suits glowed. Their numbers sent out a light that looked like their numbers out which then turned into balls of light. Each of them had formed a weapon. They each grabbed them and admired their weapons.

"Tiger Sword!" Red yelled as he moved his sword so that the blade pointed forwards. The blade was silver while the handle was red and black. There was also a gold tiger engraving on the handle.

"Shark Sabers!" Blue yelled as he held a pair of smaller swords. The blades started straight and curved towards the top of the blade. The blades were silver in color. The handles were blue and white. They each had a golden shark engraving on the handle.

"Bull Axe!" Black yelled as he held the doblue bladded weapon. Each huge blade curved. They were silver in color. The handle was black and a golden yellow color. They was a gold bull engraving in the middle of the handle.

"Cheetah Claws!" Yellow yelled as she had her hands inside of two bases with claws at the end. The base was yellow and the claws were silver in color. Each base had three claws. There was a gold cheetah engraving on top of each base.

"Phoenix Bow!" Pink yelled as she pulled out the stringed weapon. The base was pink and white in color. The string ran down the back and was silver. The arrows would appear as she pulled back the string. There was a gold phoenix engraving on the base of the bow.

They each held their weapons in their hands and got into their positions. There was a silence as they stared down the monsters. The monsters then made their move and ran towards the rangers. The rangers also began to run.

They fought off the monsters. They each hit one of the monsters. They were unfortunately more powerful than your average Ryaku. Red then punched in a code into his morpher and pushed the middle of his belt and pulled out a Final Attack Kemono Battery. The others did the same. They inserted their batteries and readied their attacks.

"Tiger Fire Fury Slash!" The Tiger Sword was engulfed in flames and red ran towards one if the Gadoras. Red stood on the other side. As the monster fell backwards and exploded.

"Shark Water Fury Slash!" The Shark Sabers were engulfed in water and Blue ran towards a Gadora. He slashed into them and the monster blew up.

"Bull Ground Charging Slash!" Black yelled as he held his axe low and charged towards the Gadora, his axe engulfed in black energy. He came close to the monster and then lifted up the axe slashing right through him. The monster then exploded.

"Cheetah Claw Speed Attack!" Yellow's claws were engulfed in yellow energy. The claws to be specific. She used her speed and spun around fast. She slashed the monsters and they blew up.

"Phoenix Bow Rainbow Fire!" Pink pulled back the string and a bigger arrow appeared. The arrow had a rainbow fire surrounding it. She then aimed and let go of the string. The arrow pierced through the Gadora's body and blew it up.

The monsters all blew up and the only one left was Kurasshuzoido. Kurasshuzoido looked up at the rangers and jumped back in fear and surprise. He then charged at them.

"I have to do everything myself!" Kurasshuzoido's hands glowed purple. The rangers ran towards him. They hit each other at the same time but the rangers were sent flying back. Kurasshuzoido charged another attack but was hit by a sword. Red was still up. They clashed and hit eachother with their blades. Each blade strike caused a spark.

"I will end you!" Red yelled at the monster. They clashed once more. They hit eachother with might. Red backed up as Blue and Black came in a struck the monster. Yellow came in for a slash and Pink sent an arrow that pierced through the monster.

"Go for it!" Blue told Red. Red nodded and ran towards the monster.

"Wait!" Kurasshuzoido tried charging up another attack. Unfortunately for him, that was his final move.

Red came up to Kurasshuzoido with his sword engulfed in fire. He came in running. Kurasshuzoido has no other choice but to run and attack as well. They both met in the middle and slashed eachother. They stopped and stood still. They stood back to back. The others looked at the two. Silence hung in the air. Reds sword was still sticking out.

Silence was broken as Kurasshuzoido's body began to spark. He groaned and fell to his knees. Red stood straight holding his arm. He walked back towards the others.

"My upgrade... failed me." Kurasshuzoido fell and blew up right on the spot. Red walked away as the monster exploded behind him.

"We did it!" Yellow jumped up in excitement.

"Yes!" Sosuke also jumped up. Everyone hugged eachother.

"What a disappointment." Jiku said as he looked across his throne, "Is it ready to use?"

"Yes sir!" Baishisu answered.

With that, Jiku pushed a red button. Suddenly a tower came out of the lake that the villains base was in. The tower went above the trees. It had a red ball object at the top. The top half of the tower moved and stuck out instead of pointing up straight. The ball lit up and then sit a laser beam towards the city.

"Are you sure about this?" Zaku asked his master.

"It's exciting. I want to see where this goes." Jiku began eating his food that was just served to him by the footsoldiers.

The rangers were celebrating. Yellow hugged Red and Black gave Pink and Blue a high five. When red stopped hugging yellow he noticed something weird. He looked up and saw a red laser beam coming towards them.

"Move!" The rangers all ran out of the way. The beam hit the remains of Kurasshuzoido.

The rangers turned to look at where the beam had hit. The remains lifted into the air and came together. The rangers were in shock when they saw what followed. Kurasshuzoido was back, but he was different. Kurasshuzoido grew into a huge monster that was higher than any buildings around. The monster was so huge that it could destroy the whole city.

"I'm back!" Kurasshuzoido yelled as he began terrorizing the city.

"Shit! What are we going to do?" Black asked Red who was thinking.

Just then, Red remembered what had happened the night before. In a flashback playing in his head, the tiger mecha roared as lightning flashed. Red snapper back from his thoughts and snapped his fingers.

"I got it." He pushed his wristband so that his morpher would appear. He pushed in a code.

#135

He then pushed his belt buckle and pulled out a Zord Kemono Battery. He inserted it into his morpher and pushed the Zord button. A hologram of the tiger zord appeared over his morpher. He inserted the zords code.

#001

"What did you do?" Yellow asked.

"You remember that we have what are called Zord Batteries." Red told her.

"Yea." Yellow answered.

"Just wait and see." Red smiled under his helmet. Everyone looked at him in confusion. Red shot out his Kemono Battery from his morpher.

Elsewhere, deep in the jungle, the Kemono Battery, which had grown after it was shot. It arrived into a deep dark void in the jungle. From within the dark void, green eyes lit up. A roar could be heard and it was so loud that birds flew out of trees and other animals began to run away. A huge figure ran out of the dark void. It finally stopped where there was a huge opening. It walked up to the edge of a cliff.

It was the Tiger Zord that had helped Kemono Red before. It was red with black stripes. It looked like a regular tiger. It's eyes were green. It had a tiger stylized number 1 on its side like the one tha Kemono Red has on his suit. The Kemono Battery was inserted into the zords mouth and now rested in the middle of the zord. It roared into the sky.

It began to run again. It destroyed a few trees while making its way to the city. It already knew what it had to do.

Kurasshuzoido continued his assault on the city. He smashed cars under his foot and destroyed buildings with his blades. The rangers could only look.

"Ok so what's the plan!" Tsubasa walked up to Red. He was getting a little angry.

Red smiled under his helmet again. He pointed over to his right. Everyone turned out to look the way he pointed. Suddenly a loud roar was heard. Even Kurasshuzoido had stopped as he heard the noise. He turned around to see where the roar had come from.

The Tiger Zord appeared and without wasting time it attacked Kurasshuzoido. Kurasshuzoido fell backwards. He got back up and continued getting attacked.

"What is that?" Yellow asked in total surprise.

"It's a zord. At least, that's what I think it's called. You guys can call upon your own zords. Just use the code number 135 and then press the zord button. Then, if it wasn't obvious, you shoot the battery out of your morpher." Red walked in front of them.

"Let's do it!" Pink said with excitement.

"That's the spirit." Yellow said as they did what Red told them to do. Blue and Black followed. They then put in their own codes.

They shot out their batteries. They went into the air. Red then ran towards his zord.

"Where are you going?" Yellow yelled after him.

"I'm going to get in the zord." Red yelled as he jumped up into the air. He landed on top of the Tiger Zord. "Let's do this!" and with a nod he jumped into the zord. He enetered the inside of the zord. He looked all around and sat down on the seat that was available. He sat down and the seat moved. The door in front opened and allowed him to enter a cockpit. He looked around in delight. He saw a steering wheel, a control panel, clearly to insert codes, and a place to put some object. Red quickly figured it out and pulled out his Raiku Saber. He quickly put it in the hole that was on the stand.

The zord glowed Red. Kemono Red was now in the drivers seat. Literally. He hit the gas and the Tiger Zord, with a roar, began to run. Everyone else down on the ground awaited their own zords.

The blue battery flew into the ocean. It entered a dark cavern. With the dark cavern, red eyes glowed. Small fish quickly swam away and a huge figure came out of the cavern. It was the Shark Zord. It looked like a great white. It was all blue with red eyes. It's fin on the top was sharp and can cut through solid steel. It had a shark stylized number 2 on its side similar to the one that Kemono Blue had on his suit. The battery had entered into the zords mouth and now rested in the middle of zord. It swam to the surface and raced down towards the city.

The black battery flew into the forest. It flew into a dark part of the forest that was covered by a ton of trees. The battery flew in and red eyes glowed. The earth began to tremble and a huge figure ran out of the forest. It was the Bull Zord. It is black all over and had red eyes. It's horns are silver. It has a Bull stylized number 3 on its side similar to the one that Kemono Black had on his suit. The battery had entered its mouth and now rested in the middle of the zord. It ran towards the city.

The yellow battery went into the jungle. It flew into a smaller dark void. Red eyes glowed through the darkness. A figure ran faster than the human eye could see. It stopped and roared into the sky. It was the Cheetah Zord. It is yellow with black spots and red eyes. It has a cheetah stylized number 4 on its side similar to the one in the middle of Kemono Yellow's suit. The battery had entered the zords mouth and now rested in the middle of the zord. It ran faster than 100 mph towards the city.

The pink battery went into a cave on a mountain. Green eyes glowed through the darkness of the cave. A loud sound was heard. It was the zord inside. Something then flew out of the cave. It was the Phoenix Zord. It was pink and white. It had two stylized number 5's on each wing, similar to the one in the middle of Kemono Pink's Suit. The battery had entered the zords mouth and now rested in the middle of the zord. It flew towards the city.

The Tiger Zord continued attacking Kurasshuzoido. Red moved left and right and jumped on top of buildings. It attacked the gigantic monster from all directions. However, Kurasshuzoido found an opening and attacked the zord. It sent the zord flying back.

"Ha! My turn!" Kurasshuzoido yelled as he charged an attack.

Suddenly, he was attacked from the side. It was the Bull Zord who sent him flying. Kurasshuzoido got up and was then attacked by two other zords. It was the Shark Zord and Cheetah Zord. Then for a final attack, the Phoenix Zord attacked the monster. The zords all regrouped.

"Alright guys, our turn!" Blue said as they all jumped towards their respective zords. "Hello Shark Zord, it's an honor to meet you and fight alongside with you." Blue bowed before he jumped into the zord.

"Let's smash some stuff Bull Zord!" Black said and the Bull Zord stomped its feet and steam came out of its nose. With that, Black jumped into the zord.

"Let's go Cheetah Zord! Time to go fast!" The Cheetah Zord growled happily and Yellow jumped into the zord.

"Hello Phoenix Zord! Nice to meet you! Let's get along!" Pink bowed and jumped into the zord.

They were all in their cockpits. There were steering wheels, control panels, and stand. They quickly figured things out and inserted their Strike Sabers into the stand. Their zords glowed and now they were in control.

They all hit the gas. The Tiger Zord attacked Kurasshuzoido first. It was followed by the Shark Zord and Cheetah Zord. The Phoenix Zord came in from above and attacked Kurasshuzoido sending him flying the Bull Zord made the finishing touch by charging and attacking from behind.

"That's it. Poison Strike!" Kurasshuzoido sent a slash of cross posing towards the zords. It hit them head on and they fell back. Kurasshuzoido continued various attacks.

Then inside the cockpit of Kemono Red, something glowed. Red looked up to see a floating Kemono Battery. He took it into his hands a looked at it. It was a Megazord Battery. He knew exactly what to do.

"Everyone come towards me. It's time to form the Megazord." Red calles out to his team and they all retreated towards him.

"I don't think so." Kurasshuzoido was going to attack but was hit by the Bull Zord again.

All the zords gathered together. Red pulled up the Kemono Battery and pushed it. He inserted it into the control panel and pushed a few buttons. He pushed the Megazord button and then put in its code followed by the codes of the other zords.

"Woah, what's going on?" Pink asked.

"Something incredible." Yellow said.

"Sutoraiku Gattai!" Red yelled. The zords were coming together. The Tiger Zord jumped into the air and its limbs came into its body. The Shark Zord and Phoenix Zord came in towards the top of the zord, where it attached to what would have been the zords front legs. The Shark Zord detached its tail and its front fins came into its body. The Phoenix Zords Wings detached from its bodies and its legs came into its underbelly. The finally attached to the Tiger Zord, which had formed the upper arms, and became arms. Hands came out of their mouths.

The Bull Zord and Cheetah Zord came towards where the back legs of the Tiger Zord would be. The Bull Zords legs came into its body as its body came over his head. The Cheetah Zords legs came into its body as its body came over its body. They attached to the Tiger Zord, which formed the upper legs. They became the legs of the Megazord. The Phoenix Zords wings attached to the back of the big robots body. The Megazords head and face were revealed as the Tiger Zords head spun around to face forward. The face of the Tiger Zord stayed on top of the Megazords head. Out of the Megazords chest came a huge tiger head and remained their. "KemonoOh!" Red yelled making the Megazord pose in front of the Kemonoranger logo with a black backdrop.

The rangers took out their sabers and were ejected from their cockpits and sent to the Megazords cockpit. Their seats traveled theorigh the Megazord. They all need up in a bigger cockpit. In front of each ranger was a steering wheel, a control panel, and the sword stand where the Raiku Saber went. Kemono Red sat in the middle of the cockpit. Kemono Blue sat to Reds right side and Kemono Black sat to Reds left side. Kemono Yellow sat behind Red and Blue and Kemono Pink sat behind Red and Black. They inserted their Strike Sabers into their sword stands.

"Gattai Complete!" They all yelled in unison.

"It doesn't matter what you do! I was given this second chance and I will destroy you!" Kurasshuzoido charged at the Megazord.

"Alright let's go!" Red yelled as he hit the gas, catching the other by surprise. They clashed in the middle and fought with their fists.

Kurasshuzoido then turned his hands into blades. Red knew exactly what to do. He pushed a button to the side.

"Tiger Sword! Activate!" Red yelled and the back of the Tiger Zord opened allowing for a sword to come out. The Megazord grabbed it and prepared to attack. They clashed once again. After 5 minutes, they got Kurasshuzoido into a corner. The monster was tired.

"Ok! Activate Final Strike!" Red was about to push the button.

"Wait! What about all the people in the buildings?" Pink caught them by surprise.

"Don't worry. The city has safety precautions. Everyone is safe." Red said and Pink calmed down a bit.

"That's good." Pink said getting ready.

"I will destroy you!" Kurasshuzoido yelled trying to get up.

"KemonoOh Final Fire Strike!" Red yelled and all the rangers moved their wheels to the side. The Megazord pulled up its sword and pushed it down on the monster. The slash went all the way through its body.

The Megazord turned around and began to walk away. Kurasshuzoido was bleeding out. All of a sudden, their was a loud explosion. The Megazord walked away.

"Victory!" The rangers yelled as they celebrated in the cockpit.

"That was... interesting." Jiku got up from his seat and walked away.

"Jiku-sama?" Zaku wondered where his master was going.

"Work I'm the next monster. I expect better." Jiku said as he retreated to his quarters.

"You heard him! Get back to work!" Zaku said to Baishisu who tried to enjoy his sandwich. Zaku left and Baishisu went to his labs.

"Is something wrong?" Maya asked.

"No," Kite said and then without a warning he put some ice cream on Maya's face from his own cone. Maya stepped back. The others looked shocked. Kite looked guilty and realized he may have messed up. "Are you ok," Kite was hit with a face full of ice cream. Maya laughed at him. Kite looked at her and began to chase her around.

On a roof top close by, Kenji stood overlooking the city. He looked down at the Kemonorangers. He sighed but then he smiled. They were young, its what they are supposed to do. They will have dark times ahead and hard work ahead.

"So, you will keep an eye on them." Kenji spoke to someone who was behind.

"You have my word. We look over all the Super Sentai teams that have ever been active. We will especially keep a close eye on this team." A mans voice was heard. The man appeared at Kenjis side. The man wore a ranger suit. It was red. He had white gloves and white boots. He also had a red cape with a collar that went up to his head. His helmet was red with the visor looking a little bug like and blue in color. He had a number one on his helmet. He also had a yellow v across his chest. The suit also had a zipper in front of it. He wore a belt and the belt buckle was what looked to be a big "S".

"Arigatou, Akarenger." Kenji said.

"It's a promise." Akarenger said to Kenji as he crossed his arms. They continued looking down at the others. The others were having the time of their lives.
