Chapter 31

Sci Force! Pt 1

"Lan, watch out!" Maylu shouted as Desertman surfaced behind Lan and fired a lion head attack.

"Gate Cannon!" A voice shouted out of nowhere as a cannon blast destroyed the lion heads, and then a second blast caused Desertman to return to sand. The rangers looked in the direction the attack came from but saw no one, and nothing. Desertman suddenly reformed and another blast separated him and a fourth blast destroyed his sphere.

"Who did that?" Lan asked Maylu on the ride to the Yoka Zoo.

"I have no clue, I mean we try getting to school and we have to go take care of a Demon. Then someone or something takes out the Demon for us." Maylu said before staring out the window. "Lan we are almost there." Maylu said as she saw the signs designating how far they were to the Yoka Zoo.

Lan, Dex, Yai, Tory, Rush and Maylu were wandering around the zoo when out of nowhere Savageman showed up and sliced several cages wide open. "Dang, not now, not here." Lan complained as the four of them hid behind a wall.

"Punk Knuckles!" a familiar sounding voice shouted as a pair of spinning knuckles slammed into Savageman causing him to scream in pain.

"Where did he come from?" Lan asked as he stared at a Golden Ranger standing in front of him, holding Savageman against a wall. Suddenly Savageman tossed the gold ranger aside. The ranger's out fit was gold with black lines on the legs, arms, and chest. His boots and gloves were black. There was one line the outside of each leg that went up the entire side of the body, one line on the tops of the arms that when reached the shoulders went diagonally to the where the navi insignia should of been, joined and then went straight down and up the back. His helmet visor did not bear the crest of Duo, or anything that resembled it. Instead the visor consisted of three triangles, two over the eyes, and one above the forehead. He had no navi emblem on his chest, or anywhere. Their was no hint to who he was at all.

"I don't care but we need to help him!" Lan said as he raised his DUO PET to his mouth to contact Mr. Famous for a Dimensional Area. "Mr. Famous isn't answering!" Lan said looking at Malyu and Rush.

"Dex, Yai, Tory! Do us a favor and get out of here, try to contact my dad and have him send the others as back up!" Lan said as he readied himself to activate his morpher.

"NO!" Dex shouted. "We aren't going to let you try and stop that navi with out Cross Fusion by yourselves!" Dex said as he picked up a broken cage bar.

"I don't think metal will work against him!" Tory said pointing to the broken cage bars.

The gold ranger lifted his wrist and pressed a button on his morpher that had just appeared. "Kendo Mode!" he shouted as a orange and blue light covered his body, his helmet was now wearing a partial kendo outfit. helmet, wrist guards(glove looking things), and chest plate, only the traditional pants were missing. He summoned a kendo stick and started to attack Savageman. his guards, and chest plate bore an odd looking emblem, it could barely be made out as the wiring of a kendo mask.

"What the heck is going on?" Yai asked noticing the sudden change.

"Kendo Strike! HEAD!" the ranger shouted as he slammed the Kendo stick down on Savageman's head.

"Savage Claw!" Savageman shouted darting at the ranger who easily dodged the attack.

"ARM!" the ranger yelled out as his kendo stick fell down on Savageman's arm and suddenly a large explosion happened causing Savageman to go flying.

"What happened?" Dex asked.

"It's Kendo, that ranger is fighting like in a kendo match and apparently his weapon is designed to do serious damage when he scores a win." Ms. Mari said walking up behind Lan.

"Huh? Why would some one do that?" Lan asked.

"I don't know but it sure is an interesting style." Maylu said as she noticed the ranger touch his wrist that his morpher had appeared on earlier.

"Punk Mode!" The ranger shouted as his kendo outfit vanished and a red light covered him as a new armor appeared on him. Red armor appeared on his boots, with a spike on the knee caps and on the outside of the heel. He received a red chest plate with a familiar looking emblem in the center of a white circle. Shoulder pads appeared that consisted of a spike sticking out of the small circular shape. Then odd looking knuckles appeared on his hands and he took a fighting stance.

"Maylu look!" Lan said pointing at the chest plate.

"That looks so familiar!" Maylu said trying to place it.

"Punk Knuckles!" the ranger shouted as his knuckles flipped forward and started to spin like saws, he started to rapidly punch Savageman with his spinning knuckles. "Punk Punch!" he shouted as his arms lit up then odd looking arm like appendages appeared from the back under side of his shoulder pad and started to pummel Savageman.

"FAMOUS!" Megaman shouted after running the current emblem through his memory banks, "It's on Famous' belt buckle!" Megaman shouted.

"You mean that ranger is Mr. Famous?" Lan asked.

"No Lan I am saying that ranger is Mr. Famous daughter! OF course it is Mr. Famous!"

"Mr. Famous has a daughter?"

"Lan Megaman was being Sarcastic." Ms. Mari said.

"That explains why Mr. Famous didn't respond when we tried to contact him for a Dimensional Area!" Maylu said.

"Punk Knuckles Maximum Power!" he shouted as they started to spin faster and suddenly Savageman's sphere could be seen.

" DUO TECH BLASTER!" Three voices called out as their blast shattered the sphere. "Sorry it took us so long but we didn't want to hurt any civilians!" DUO Crimson shouted looking directly at the gold ranger. "And who are you?" She asked.

"I am the Gold Force Ranger!" He said before running off.

"Mr. Famous!" Lan shouted as he skated into the Lab.

"Lan it's just Famous!" he said looking at Lan. "What is it that you want?"

"Why were you fighting Savageman earlier, as a gold ranger?" Lan asked and Mr. Famous gave him an odd look. "I tried to call you for a Dimensional Area but you didn't answer, plus Megaman recognized your belt buckle on one of the Gold Rangers forms." Lan said boldly.

"I don't know what you are talking about Lan I was having lunch with your dad. I didn't transform into a ranger and run off to fight a demon when it is the job of the rangers and Cross Fusion members." Mr. Famous said.

"Don't lie!"

"I am not. I honestly don't know what you are talking about. Plus how could I make a morpher if I have no clue how they work?" Mr. Famous said.

"You, what do you mean? Are you saying that me, Maylu, Megaman and everyone else at the zoo were just imagining that symbol on the chest of the Gold Ranger?" Lan asked angrily.

"Actually I am saying there is no GOLD RANGER so I couldn't be the GOLD RANGER!" Mr. Famous said before turning back to his work.

"Why would he lie about that?" Lan asked Maylu.

"Maybe he just doesn't want anyone else to find out because he only wants to help out from time to time when we cant morph." Maylu suggested.

"Yeah but he said he was eating Lunch with my dad." Lan said.

"Maybe he was before running off to Yoka Zoo?" Maylu said as she finished typing up her report. Lan was leaning against her bedroom wall. Jasmine had just walked back in as she finished her sentence. And Ribbita was downstairs editing out some exclusive footage.

"What were you two talking about?" Jasmine asked.

"Just why Slur and Duo chose us to be rangers out of everyone else on the planet." Maylu said quickly so Lan couldn't say they were talking about the Gold Ranger.

"We know it is because we are some of the few capable of successful Cross Fusion." Jasmine said.
