Chapter 21

Fire Fight!

Lan and Maylu were sitting in class, when the sound of an explosion filled the air. Everyone rushed over to the windows and stared outside. "Metfire viruses!" Tory shouted staring at the viruses that were running around setting things near the school on fire. "I think they blew up a car!"

"Ms. Mari can we go to the bathroom?" Lan and Maylu asked.

"Yes you can but you better not run off and try to take the law into your hands!" Ms. Mari shouted at Lan as him and Maylu ran out of the room. They dashed out side and ran to an area they could see the viruses but they couldn't be seen from the school.

"Lan, I don't notice a Demon Navi at all, maybe it is just another virus attack." Maylu said

"No I doubt that it is just a virus attack, any sign of a giant metfire?" Lan said looking around. Sudenly a meteor hit the tree they were standing behind causing them to jump, behind them was a giant metfire.

"Well then lets do it. Duo Blu.." Lan tried to morph but Maylu slapped him.

"I forgot that Rush wasn't with me. And with out the tree for cover, well I am sure everyone in school would see you morph." Maylu said before lifting raising her PET to her mouth "Duo, please contact the others. If Lan morphed now, everyone would know that we are rangers." Maylu said while doing her best to dodge the oncoming Meteor attack from the viruses.

Minutes later the Crimson, Yellow, and Purple rangers stood between them and the viruses. "Kid's we'll take it from here, good job distracting them till we got here. But don't do something stupid like that again!" the Yellow Ranger said.

"Right Charlie, we'll head back to class now." Lan said turning and running towards the school.

"Do your best, Tesla, Nenji." Maylu said adressing the Crimosn, and Purple ranger's before following Lan's lead.

"Why do they have to act like they know us. Sure no one was out here but if someone was then our identities could become public knowledge. Napalm!" Nenji said as he stretched his right arm out and fired a Napalm Football at the large virus.

"Let's just get this over with! We can get after them later, Tornado Arm!" Chalie said as his yellow glove turned into a large fan like object, and he fired a spining blast of air at the viruses deleting several.

"Seems too easy, Mag Ball!" Tesla said as her glove changed and fired a large black ball of electricity deleting several of them.

They kept fighting the viruses with out the use of any battlechips. They all saved the giant virus till last. They used their signature attacks to defeat it with teamwork. As soon as they did that though a Dimensional Area formed and a demon appeared. "So you stopped the pathetic viruses. However I can't commend you for that, you should of been able to take them out shortly after they appeared!" the demon said as he stepped into view.

"Burnerman!" Tesla said as she stared at him, she only knew who he was because of the Darkloids that had been on the news so many times in the past.

"Don't forget good ol' Flameman!" an odd sounding voice said, another demon stepped into view, he looked like a burning rock with stick arms and legs.

"That is a total of two fire type navi's how fun!" Nenji joked

"Arm Burner!" Burnerman shouted firing a blue flame at the rangers. They quickly evaded but did not return fire. "What's wrong did you forget to bring chips?" Flameman mocked them.

"No we didn't, but we don't feel like wasting them yet when we have something new to try!" Tesla said "Mag Shockers!" Tesla said touching her morpher causing half of a magnet to apear on both of her arms.

"Gyro Blades!" Charlie said causing a large propeller to apear on his hand. He tossed it up in the air cauing ti to breakapart and attach to each hand before they started to spin.

"Napalm Blasters!" Nenji called out as he pressed the button and something that resembled Napalmmanls arm attached to both arms. "How do you like our weapons?"

"I am not scared of your fancy toys. Flame Breath!" Flameman shouted opening his mouth spewing fire.

"Napalm Blasters, Rapid mode!" Nenji said before fireing at Flameman, he delt some serious damage. Charlie was running aimlessly at Burnerman his blades spinning wildly as he thrust his arms out at Burnerman. The blades ripped into his chest and cause some decent damage. Burnerman stumbled back, right into the Mag Shockers, this zapped him and he fell.

Suddenly they started to increase in size till he was several stories tall. "Let's take care of him." Tesla said and everyones weapons vanished. " We need Duo Zord power! MagTruck Duo Zord!" Tesla shouted as she raised her arm into the air.

"GyroCopter Duo Zord!" Charlie said while striking an odd pose.

"NapalmTank Duo Zord!" Nenji said while striking a pose that was lamer than Charlie's.

"Let's show him the our power!" Tesla said pressing a button. The MagTruck changed into the legs and waist effortlessly.

The helicopter some how latched onto the tank and lifted it up and sat it on the waist. It's Turret split in half and the treds turned into arms allowing the cannons to attach. Then the helicopter lowerd over the chest and attached to the back, the MagTrucks satelite dish lowered on to the head.

"Duo Tech Megazord, on line!" they said as the large machine posed. "Maybe the Mag Blast will do some decent damage!" Tesla said as the helmet rotated so the dish was pointing at the two navis. The magnetic energy started to build up in the antanae.

"We have nothing magneti..." Burnerman was cut off due to the magnetic interference with his, and Flameman's data.

"Tank Blasters ready, and FIRE!" Nenji shouted firing a powerfull blast from the two arm mounted cannons. They slammed into the navi's destroying one of Burnerman's arm, and taking a chunk out of Burnerman's side. They fell back out of the megazord's range and vanished.

"They got away!" Charlie said scolding the other two.

"Hey you didn't do anything, I mean you just sat there we were the ones who took the iniciative." Nenji said

"Hey, they are badly damaged and it will take time for his data to be repaired. I have a feeling that Shademan was just trying to see how strong we currently are. He never had any intention of letting them stay for the entire fight even if they were winning!" Tesla explained.

"Why is that?" Charlie asked puzzled.

"Becuase, if they were on the verge of defeating us all Duo would have to is send three of the others, they could pilot the Duo Megazord with out one of them. Then Burnerman, and Flameman as strong as they are could not be able to take us on alone." Tesla explained before they jumped out of the Megazord and it returned to it's secret hanger. They powered down, after ducking out of everyone's sight and then walked off.

Lan sat at #1 Curry stuffing his face full of curry, shortly after school ended for the day. Maylu sat next to him with a embarrased expression on her face. Rush sat on the othe side of Lan also eating, but showing more manners. "Lan, why does the dog have more manner's than you?"

"What dog?" Lan asked with a mouth full of curry.

"Rush, of course, you did know Rush is a dog right?"

"He is? I must of forgotten that." Lan said as he finnished, he sat there patting his abnormally full stomache. Ribbita and Jasmine waltzed into the curry shop and slammed their hands down on Lan and Maylu's shoulders.

"Why are you here of all places?" Ribbita shouted.

"I was eating, why else?"

"Oh no, Lan we forgot that promise we made with Nenji to help clean up all that gunpowder!You know the stuff we accidentally spilled the other day." Maylu said with a 'I'm sorry' look on her face.

"Huh, what are... Oh yeah I compleatly forgot about that!" Lan said scratching his head.

"Me and Jasmine did it all by our selves!" Ribbita said to explain all the dirt on her clothes.

"Lan, I'll let you two off the hook if you take me to the movies TONIGHT!" Jasmine said with an evil grin on her face.

"Ok, so Maylu what kinda movie should the three of us go and see?" Lan asked being more dense than ever.

Jasmine hauled of and slapped him. " I ment with out her!" she shouted.

"Oh, ok then so how about... uhh... Maylu do you know what's playing in tonight?" Lan said

"Yeah just some Chick flic! I mean that is the onlyone that isn't for 8 year olds, or that isn't Rated R!" Maylu said laughing at the thought of Lan watching a chick flic with Jasmine.

"I guess I can tolerate some boring documentary about baby chickens." Lan sighed, Maylu hit her head on the counter. All of the employees jaws dropped noticing how dence Lan was being, and Ribbita started laughing.

"Lan, could I please film your reaction to the film? Well I can't go in becuase of some thing about not wanting the movies aired live via a news channel, but I can tape your reaction after the entire movie. What do you say?" Ribbit answered not wanting to pass up the oportunity to give everyone a good laugh.

"Sure why not."

Later that night after the movie, Lan walked out of theater with a confused look on his face. "Ribbita, I think I got a ticket to the wrong movie, there were no baby chickens in that entire movie, not a single one." Lan said to Ribbita who had her Camera guy standing beside her filming.

"Kid, you did know that Chick flics are not about baby chickens? They are flics for Chicks, you know girls!" the camera man said to Lan, who mumbled something along the lines of, How dare Maylu trick me.

"Umm, yeah of course I knew that..." Lan said trying to not look soo dense.
