Chapter 13

The Rangers found themselves downtown. Arachnia stood before them, and hissed out, more like a snake than a spider, "Ahh . . . Rangersss. I sssee you decssided to show up after all."

Ryla mentally cringed but stepped forward, "There is no way we'd stand by and let you try to destroy the city!"

She hissed again, "Don't worry, I'll desssstroy you firsssst sssso you won't have to ssssee!"

Arachnia opened her clawed mouth and shot out another spray of webbing at the Violet Ranger. Quickly she jumped up and away, it nearly hitting her against the chest. The Violet Ranger landed a few feet back, and saw that the Red and White Rangers had moved in to battle it. They both got in a few good blows, but were ultimately pushed back. After that, all the Rangers came upon the spider, trying to beat it into submission. Suddenly, Arachnia shot two more steams of webbing out at the Rangers. The Violet and White Rangers jumped back in time, but this caused the webbing to catch onto the Pink and Blue Rangers. The Pink Rangers Legs were bound, leaving her only to fall to the ground. Arachnia had the Blue Ranger by the torso, and seemed to be reeling them both in. The White Ranger drew his sword, "I don't think so."

The Violet Ranger nodded, and drew her katana. They both pounced down over the webbing severing it with their blades. The two rangers were able to pull the webbing free from their bodies after that. Once again, the Rangers came down upon Arachnia, taking the advantage.

---------------------------------------

Rita cried out, "Zeddy! They're beating Arachnia!"

"Oh stop your blubbering, here." Zedd crossed his staff over hers.

"Make My Monster Grow!"

---------------------------------------

The Rangers pulled back as Arachnia grew in front of them. The Violet Ranger gasped a bit, "It's more effective when you're there."

The nthe Ranger nodded to her, and she knew just what to do. They all spoke together, "We Need NinjaZord Power Now!"

Black Frog, NinjaZord, Power Up!

Pink Crane, NinjaZord, Power Up!

Blue Wolf, NinjaZord, Power Up!

Yellow Bear, NinjaZord, Power Up!

Red Ape, NinjaZord, Power Up!

White Ninja, FalconZord, Power Up!

Violet Ninja, LionessZord, Power Up!

The Violet Ranger watched as she saw the Zords appear, and then saw her own come upon her. It was glorious, in its shining violet armor, and golden accents. She watched as the other Rangers leaped to their Zords, and she did the same. Once she was inside, she marveled at the inside controls. She noticed an empty slot, and as if by instinct, she pulled her katana free and pressed it inside. She nodded as she noticed the controls light up, and again, she spoke from her heart, "LionessZord Battle Mode!"

Her sight became greater as the Zord pulled up to a new height, and took on the appearance of a great warrior. She pushed her katana control forward and readied herself for battle. A voice called into her ears, "Ryla! Can you hear us?"

It was the White Ranger; she turned and saw the Ninja FalconZord had formed as well. She nodded, "Affirmative Tommy, loud and clear!"

"All right then, let's get this ugly spider!" he sent back to her.

She grinned, "I couldn't have said it better!"

Arachnia came towards the Ninja FalconZord, and she saw them try to fight her off. She could see Arachnia pushing their limits, and jumped in to aid them. She somehow knew that her Zord also had a katana, just as she did. So she called for it, "Lioness Katana, I call forth to you. Aid me with your power!"

Her Zord pulled its arm upward, and pulled out a golden katana, much like hers, and held it out to the spider, "It's about time you get squashed!"

A tight webbing came out at the Ninja FalconZord, and Ryla pulled her katana in front of it, catching the webbing. Arachnia pulled back, and she felt her whole Zord being pulled. She cried out, "Oh no! Not again!"

---------------------------------------

The Rangers watched as Arachnia began to spin the LionessZord into a cocoon of webbing. Sparks were flying, and they could see that this was not good. The Blue Ranger moved forward in his seat, "Ryla! Guys, we must do something!"

The White Ranger nodded, "Billy's right. Come on guys!"

The Rangers came towards Arachnia and both fists came towards her. She shrieked a high-pitched squeal, and fell backwards, exploding against the ground. The Rangers cheered, "All right!"

They then noticed that the LionessZord was still caught in the webbing. The Rangers watched with helpless eyes as it teetered, and then fell to the ground, tossing the Violet Ranger out.

---------------------------------------

Ryla cried out, "Ahhh! No!!!"

And then she hit the ground . . .
