Wes and Eric pulled up in a truck, quickly getting out and heading to the back of the truck. Eric opened the doors, and Wes opened a yellow brief case, pulling out two small antennas. After setting them up, he pressed a button on the briefcase, and an image of Tommy appeared in-between the antenna.
'Wes, is everything in position?' he asked him.
"Yes. Taylor is standing by with the air force, the Silver Guardians are positioned around the building and the other rangers are standing by," Wes told him.
'Excellent. Are you sure this is going to work?' he asked.
"It doesn't have to work, it only has to distract them long enough for Professor Xavier to do his thing," he said.
'Lt. Emery and I are prepping a time ship for launch. We'll be bringing medical supplies and standing by just in case we're needed.'"Something tells me all of us aren't going to come out of this in one piece,"
'Good luck Wes. Tommy out,'The screen blinked off, and Wes quickly put the equipment away. Eric closed the truck doors, and the two of them headed over to the entrance of the building where groups of Silver Guardians were standing guard.
"Everything secure Cooper?" Eric asked him.
Lt. Cooper stood at attention. "Yes sir. No one is getting in or out," he said. At that moment, Kitty walked through the wall, standing next to him. "Well that doesn't count," he mentioned.
"At ease Lt.," he turned to Kitty. "Are your friends in position?" he asked.
"Yep, we're all ready," she said.
"Good. Lets do it guys," Wes said.
~~
On the opposite side of the building, the blue and yellow rangers guarded as world leaders made their way into the building. There were other guards on hand, ensuring the safety of the world leaders.
'Camille to Trip,' a voice said.
The blue ranger reached for his Morpher. "I'm here Cammy. Is everyone in position?" he asked.
'I'm on the roof now, but there is no sign of Magneto or any of his sentinels. I'll keep a look out though,' she said.
"Let me know if you see anything, we don't think want them sneaking up on…" he was cut short as there was an explosion.
Security scrambled to get the world leaders inside as the yellow and blue ranger rushed over to the car that exploded.
"What the…" this time, Katie was cut short as the car seemed to rise. It was over 20 feet in the air before it split in half, falling to the ground. Through the smoke, he approached them.
He was wearing a metallic purple colored outside, complete with helmet and cape. Though the helmet covered most of his face, the sinister look in his eyes was easy to see.
"Ah, the power rangers. It's a pleasure to finally meet you," he said, extending his hand to them.
Suddenly, their morphers were snatched off their wrists, forcing them to power down instantly. The morphers floated towards him. "I am Magneto," he introduced.
"Excuse us if we weren't jumping for joy to finally meet you," Katie said.
"Not all in. In fact, I think we've had enough of the idol chit chat," he said, flicking his wrist slightly and lunging both pieces of the car at them. The bumper of the car caught Katie in the side of the head, knocking her out cold. Trip tried to make a move, but the other side of the car hit him in the chest, taking him down.
Just then, Camille jumped off the roof of the building with Chrono Saber in hand, trying to attack Magneto, but again, a flick of the wrist was all it took to suspend the saber in mid air. Camille found herself holding onto the sword to avoid falling, but Magneto nodded at her slightly, snatching her Morpher off her wrist. She was forced to power down, and as the sword fell to the ground, so did she.
"That's far enough Magneto," a voice said.
He turned around as Eric raced over to him, connecting with a kick to the side of the head. It forced Magneto to stumble back, and also gave Wes a chance to Morpher, then call for his Chrono saber. He swung at Magneto, but the blade stopped inches away from Magneto, then spun around and lunged itself at Wes, stabbing him in the stomach. Wes fell to the ground as he de-morphed, Magneto kicked Eric in the chest, knocking him up against the side of the building.
"Personally, I was expecting a lot more from the legendary power rangers. But no matter," he said, waving his hand slightly as the debris was pushed aside.
At that moment, two sentinels walked up behind Magneto, each of them about 15 feet tall. He nodded, giving them the signal to destroy the building. The two of them headed for the building, but just then, an airplane came speeding towards one of them. The cockpit opened as Taylor jumped out, allowing the plane to collide one of the sentinels. There was a huge explosion, but as the dust settled, the sentinel was still standing.
Taylor cut herself free from the parachute, reaching for her Morpher. "Wild Access," she called out, but before she could complete the sequence, Magneto snatched her Morpher away from her.
"Another ranger? Interesting," he said, giving her a backhand that knocked her out cold.
The sentinels continued towards the building, but paused as a vortex of some kind opened in the sky. Just then, the Time Shadow Megazord came through the vortex, landing a few feet away from the sentinels. By comparison, the Time Shadow seemed to tower over both of the sentinels, and with one punch, the megazord put a hole through the sentinel's chest.
The second sentinel made a move, but the Time Force megazord came through the vortex, picking up the sentinel and throwing it to the ground. There was an explosion, and the Time Shadow kicked the first sentinel, taking it down as well. With both sentinels in ruin, Trip got back to his feet.
"Give up Magneto, your times up," he told him.
"On the contrary ranger…" he flicked his wrist, taking control of both the megazords. "… your time is up," Magneto said.
The Time Shadow lifted its foot off the ground and was ready to stomp Trip, but he rolled out the way. The impact was enough to shake the entire building.
"You won't get away with this Magneto," he said.
"But I already have ranger. I have control of your zords, and there is nothing standing in the way of me destroy every human on this planet," he told him.
Magneto lifted his arm, ready to give the command to destroy the building, but his helmet seemed to float off his head. He quickly turned around as Adam de-cloaked with the helmet in hand. The gold blade extended from Adam's forearm, slicing the helmet in half.
"Foolish human," Magneto snapped. He flicked his wrist, lifting Adam up in the air, but Magneto fell to the ground, holding his head in pain. "Damn it Charles," he screamed.
Professor Xavier rolled towards Magneto in his wheelchair. "Its over Magneto," he said calmly.
"That's where you're wrong," a voice said.
Before he could turn around, Sabertooth rushed at the Professor. He was inches away from him, but Eric grabbed Sabertooth, knocking him against the side of the zord's leg.
"QUANTUM POWER," he called out, morphing into the Quantum Ranger.
Sabertooth charged at him, but Eric fell to the ground, giving Sabertooth a judo style toss up against the wall. Sabertooth actually went through the building, leaving a hole. As he pulled himself out the rubble, Eric called for the Quantum Defender, aimed and fired, hitting Sabertooth in the chest.
With Sabertooth out the way, Jean Gray and Cyclops grabbed Magneto. A huge black plane circled overhead, coming down as low it could.
"Thank you rangers, you have done the world a great service," the Professor said as they pulled Magneto into the plane, flying away.
* hours later *
Carter stood off to the side with a somber look on his face as a group of Time Force officers searched through the rubble. It was Tommy who walked over to him, extending his hand to him.
"Was the Summit a success?" he asked him.
"Yes, the world leaders have agreed to sign a non-aggression agreement with mutants. It will take a while, but we'll all learn to co-exist. This is a new beginning, for all of us," he told them.
"Good,"
"Are your friends okay?" he asked.
Tommy shook his head slightly. "There were heavy causalities for the air force, and severe injuries for the Silver Guardians and for some of my people. It doesn't look good. I'll get the rangers back to the year 3000 for treatment. I suspect they'll need some time to heal," he sighed.
"Thank you for everything you've done here. This is a huge step for the human race. What we do here will shape the future," he said.
"Trust me, I know,"
Just then, Lt. Emery walked over to Tommy. "Commander," he said, standing at attention.
"At ease Lt. What do you have James?" he inquired.
"Wesley Collins was seriously injured; a stab wound through the stomach. He's been taken to a local hospital and should make a recovery. The Quantum Ranger has a few minor cuts and bruises, but should be okay. Katie has a serious concussion, she's onboard the time ship now resting," he told him.
"Very good. What about Trip and Camille?" he asked.
He paused. "I'm sorry sir, they're… dead," he sighed.
