A/N: And now the conclusion of the two-parter arc.


Previously on Poké Rangers Relic Hunters (and Eon Force)…

Suspicious about Celebi's information in reference to the Mask of Ice, Richard decides to try a new experiment with the other rangers, which causes him to vanish to another dimension… landing him in Hoenn. As he arrived, Maxie uses the power of his crystal to transform into a monster. Seb and the others learn of a document that leads them to the Seafloor Crystals, which when activated, can be used to find Atlantis and the portal to Johto. Seb, learning what happened to Richard, decides to help him find his way back, only for Maxie to unleash his attack. Meanwhile, the rangers powers have been having issues with Mags and JT's new weapon is still yet to be finished. Will Richard return back to his dimension? Will he get his morphing powers back? Will all of the questions be answered? Find out in the two-part conclusion.


Upon walking into the HQ, the rangers were walking toward the center of the room. Urara turned around as she looked at them. Amy arrived as well, helping them. Amy looked over as she turned to them, "What happened?"

"Simple…," said Rachel, "Mags beat us without our powers."

"Yeah…," said Zander, "They sent a whole army to Lilycove."

Lamar turned around as he looked at Grace, "And Pyreon went with the document."

Grace nodded as she turned around, looking at Max. Max was furious as he turned around, looking at them. He marched forward as he punched the table, "AND YOU LET HIM GET AWAY? WHERE'S SEB?"

"That's why we're here…," said Rachel.

Jack walked forward as he turned to them. The rangers looked over as Jack looked at Max. Max looked at Jack's face. Jack was furious as he grabbed Max by the collar of his shirt.

"Max, you obviously haven't listened to me… there's more than just the document," said Jack.

"Like what?" asked Max.

"The energy source we neglected to tell the team…. That you found out," said Jack.

The rangers turned to Max as Max let go. He started breathing as he turned around. He looked at the rangers as he turned to them. Sighing, he looked at the rangers. He gulped as he turned to the team, "Rangers, I think we need to have a seat. There's more to Pyreon that you need to know."


Meanwhile…

A green aura surrounded Seb and Richard as they landed on the ground. Landing on the ground, they were looking at the woods. The woods were breezy and beautiful. He looked around as he turned to Richard. Richard looked up as he looked at the pine trees. He could smell the pine as if it were yesterday, "Yup, we are back in Johto. Hopefully, my team can solve this."

"I hope so too," said Seb, "And maybe I can send myself back."

The two rangers were walking along the woods, not sure of what was going on. Seb turned around as he looked at Richard. Richard turned around as he went past the signs for the Ilex Forest. As they headed around the corner, they heard a rustle in the bushes. As the rangers turned to each other, they saw humanoid grunts. They were bright purple, with horns all over their head and a beak on their faces. Richard and Seb looked at each of them.

"You know these grunts?" asked Seb.

"Nope," said Richard.

As the two went to strike a fighting pose, Flare turned around as he looked at Richard, "Rich, this isn't the Johto we know."

"What do you mean?" asked Richard.

"This is all wrong! They aren't the typical grunts!" shouted Flare.

Suddenly, as one of them went to strike, golden beams struck out as they were hit. Seb and Richard turned around as they noticed someone walking toward them. He wore a red suit with white sleeves and white pants. He had red gloves and red boots. He also had a GS Ball emblem on the right side of his chest. His helmet resembled a Typhlosion as he looked at them. Richard and Seb looked over as he had a blue blaster in his hand.

"No way…," said Richard, "Another Johto Ranger?"

Chapter 17: The Shrine of Johto Part 2


"Wait… Pyreon is actually a human?" asked Rachel.

"Yes," said Max, turning around as he looked at them, "Once we received the Seafloor Crystals, I wanted to capture Pyreon. We sensed an energy reading a few days ago from an interdimensional rift. Team Magma was also there to capture what was there. We took traces of his energy signature for analysis."

Amy nodded as she turned around, "We learned that this creature is human. Whatever energy is coming from him gives him the power to transform."

"Where do you think he came from?" asked Rachel.

"Simple. The Johto Region, we believe… but… how is the question," said Max, "Which is why I needed those crystals."

Grace turned around as she looked at them, "Speculating here. We were with a ranger team from another dimension a while ago."

"You mean the Kanto Rangers?" asked Lamar.

"Yeah. What if he was from that same dimension?" asked Grace.

"That could be….," said Jack. Before he could say anything, he heard the alarm going off in the system. JT turned around as he looked at the computer, "We have an intruder?"

Suddenly, the doors opened up in front of them. The rangers stood up as someone stepped forward, unarmed. The rangers struck a pose, but Jack put his hand up. Jack was very surprised to see this individual. JT turned around as he turned off the alarm. Jack looked over as he watched the individual. He was wearing a red t-shirt with a black leather jacket with blue jeans. He had jet black hair with dark eyes.

"Eddie… how?" asked Jack.

"You said drop in anytime… well, with the bells and whistles…," said Eddie, chuckling.

"Great… well, this is the team!" said Jack, grinning, "But, I guess you are here because…"

"I have sensed a disturbance… and I think its time to tell you…" said Eddie, "Long story short, rangers. There was a ranger team in Johto… but in the 22nd century."

"22nd century?" asked the rangers.

Eddie nodded as he turned around, looking at them. Scratching his chin, he turned to them, "I met two people in 2106 when I was sent there. They were… Seb and Richard. Richard is a ranger from Johto, but not in this dimension."

The rangers turned to each other as Zander looked up, "He's probably in the same dimension as the Kanto Rangers!"

"So…," said Rachel, turning around as she looked at Eddie, "Forgive me. But, do they get back?"

Eddie nodded as he turned around, "You will have to see for yourself though. Right now, do you want my help?"

Jack grinned, "Any help is appreciated."

Patting Eddie on the shoulder, Jack grinned as Eddie grinned back. The two shook hands and then bro hugged it out. Eddie chuckled as he sat down, "Just like old times. But, I have to admit, Jack. This is pretty awesome and it beats the Sky Pillar and the Sanctuary."

"Stop… nothing beats those hide outs and you know it," said Jack, laughing. Eddie grinned as he turned to them. Eddie turned around as he looked at the Relic Hunter Rangers. Before Eddie can say anything, the doors swung open again. Ray walked over as he turned to JT, "Yo, JT!"

"Yes, Ray?" asked JT, "What's up?"

"I just got the weapons installed in the Aerodactyl Zord…," said Ray, noticing the other rangers were looking at them. Urara grinned as she looked at them, working from her desk. It was supposed to be a surprise for the rangers, but Ray may have been a little excited, "Which was supposed to be announced later today."

"We have a tenth zord?" asked Rachel.

"Ha," said Ray, "Yeah…"

"So… Seb wasn't faking it," said Grace, turning to the others.


Meanwhile…

The Red Johto Ranger were destroying the Armens, snapping each creature with his Shooter Sword. Slicing a few of them across, he turned around as he kicked a few of them in the stomach. He then turned around as red beams destroyed the Armens in front of him. As he destroyed the last group, he walked over as a red aura surrounded him. The rangers noticed a man with jet black hair, dark eyes with a black t-shirt. He had a red jacket over his shirt and blue jeans with black shoes. He looked at them as he turned to the rangers.

"Nice to meet you," said Seb, "And you are…"

"Eddie… Eddie Barinholtz, Red Johto Ranger," said Eddie, "Pleasure to meet you and you are…"

"Sebastian… Sebastian Santiago," said Seb, turning to him, "I am the Red Relic Hunter Ranger from Hoenn and this is…"

"Richard Franklin, Red Eon Ranger of Johto," said Richard.

"Hoenn?" asked Eddie, "We learned about them. We fought with the Mighty Morphin' Poké Rangers."

"Mighty Morphin?" asked Richard, in confusion.

"The first ranger team," said Seb, looking at Eddie. Eddie looked at him, "And what year are from then… never heard of Relic Hunters."

"2020…," said Seb, looking at him, "14 years in the future."

"So…," said Eddie, "Jack must be old then."

Seb turned to Richard, who was looking at Eddie. Richard gulped as Eddie stared in surprise, "You seem startled."

"I've never heard of you and I am a Ranger from Johto," said Richard.

"Well… at this time, we've never had rangers in Johto," said Eddie, looking at them. Richard turned to Eddie as the three rangers began to walk in the woods, "Come on, I'll take you to our hideout."

"Hideout?" asked Richard.

"Want to meet Celebi?" asked Eddie.

Richard's face jolted. The word of his mentor made him freeze a little as he heard the name of the Pokémon. Seb nodded slowly as Eddie led the way. Richard sighed as he turned to Seb. Flare, his creature looked at him.

"Pardon me, Rich. But, it seems you've gotten yourself in a bigger mess. I hope you trust me about this next time!" said Flare.

Richard slowly nodded as the journey continued deeper into the woods. He didn't want to start anything with Flare, especially now that they are lost in the middle of the woods… 94 years into the future.


Meanwhile…

Arriving on their Hunter Harleys, the rangers arrived at the Shoal Cave. Grace and the others grabbed their backpacks as they started walking into the mouth of the cave. Following the same path, they were walking toward the group. As they did, they were scanning the foot rints. Looking at the footprints, Grace could analyze it from her Relic Detector.

"That is Seb's footprint," said Grace.

As they followed the trail of footprints, they were walking toward the next section of the cave. As they did, Rachel felt a few raindrops on her shirt. Looking up, she turned around as she noticed the water droppings.

"Hey… is it just me or do you feel rain?" asked Rachel.

"Yep… but its just because of the tide," said Zander.

"High tide is in one minute," said Lamar, looking at the PokéNav. He then stopped as he looked at the distance of the cave and where they are, "Then, we should probably start hitting the road."

As the group started dashing toward the mouth of the cave, they heard the sound of rumbling. Rachel turned around as she noticed the cave mouths filling up with salt water. Screaming, she turned around as she dashed toward the cave. The rangers dashed toward the island as they managed to get out of the way, just in time for the front of the cave to be full of ocean water. As the water pushed them out, the four rangers screamed as they landed on the ground. Lamar got up as he was drenched, smelling like the ocean. He reached for Rachel's hand as she got up. The others got up from the ground as they went to talk.

"Are you guys okay?" asked Rachel.

"I am drenched… but fine," said Zander, looking at Grace, "Sis?"

"Fine," said Grace sarcastically, "I love swimming."

Turning around, the four rangers turned around as they noticed someone on the ground. Running over toward them, Lamar looked over as he noticed Agré's face. Agré was breathing heavily as Lamar looked over.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"Who are you?" asked Agré.

"We are the Poké Rangers Relic Hunters. One of our friends was here," said Lamar, "Do you know anything about the Seafloor Crystals?"

"Currently," he said, cringing, "The artifact is with his and friend. They are in Johto."

Rachel turned around as she looked at the lake, "I'm guessing they had to go for a swim."

"Look… it's important we know how to get them back!" said Zander.

"They must find their way back," said Agré.

"Find their way back?" asked Grace, looking at him. Before she ranted, she turned around as Lamar interrupted her. Lamar turned around as Rachel and Zander were noticing Grace's face. Grace wasn't too happy with Agré's response, "And who are you?"

"I am the keeper of Atlantis… the Keeper of the Archway," he said, looking at them.


Meanwhile…

The rangers were amazed at what they were seeing as they were walking into the Sanctuary. As they looked at the Sanctuary, it was almost shaped like a shrine. Walking inside, they noticed tons of consoles as they were looking at it. There were four other rangers that stood there, looking at the two rangers.

One was a female with blonde hair that had a pink streak. She had pink eyes and wore a yellow t-shirt with black jeans. She looked at Eddie in surprise.

"Eddie, they aren't supposed to be here!" she said.

"I know Sabrina, I brought them here," said Eddie.

Sabrina turned around as the other three rangers were there. One was dark skinned with glasses and he had a blue t-shirt with white shorts. He looked at them as he shook his hand.

"Hello, visitors? My name is Greg," he said, "It's a pleasure to meet you."

The other girl walked over as she turned around as she looked at them. She had golden brown hair with sparkly eyes. She wore a pink tank top with white tan capris.

"Hi, my name is Anna. So, nice to meet you. Granted Celebi won't be too pleased…"

"Exactly!"

The final person walked over to them as he stood across from them. He had dark reddish-hair with similar eyes. He wore a black t-shirt with a leaf on it. He also had a pair of odd jeans with steel-toe boots. He looked at them as Seb scratched his chin.

"You look familiar," he said.

"I'm related to Danny Dragonfly. My name is Kurtis. Kurtis Dragonfly," he said, "What brings you from the past?"

"You can tell?" asked Seb.

"Yep," said Sabrina, "Eddie and I were in the same boat when we landed here."

"So… but you guys came from 2006. We are from 2020," said Seb. Turning around, he heard the sound of someone very upset in the distance. He was a Mr. Mime-cyborg mix. Half of the face was robotic as well as one half of his body.

"Who brought them here? Only those who have the Johto Ranger powers have access!" shouted Miborg.

"Forgive us…," said Seb, "We are not here to reign on your parade. I need your help… him."

Richard gulped as he turned to him, almost feeling guilty. Eddie turned around as he looked at him, "What did you do?"

Richard sighed as he sat down to talk to them. He explained the whole entire situation. Kurtis sighed as he looked at Richard and then at Seb.

"First off, Eddie, you know Celebi is going to be mad once he returns," said Kurtis, "But, his story does seem believable."

Greg pushed the glasses up to his face, "Well, I for one think he's telling the truth."

He examined the mason jar, noticing Flare's essence, "And the Johto powers come from the Eon Crystal?"

Richard slowly nodded, "Yeah. Look, if we can find a way to remove this out of me, I will return and never speak of this to anyone."

As they went to continue talking, they saw a flash of green light. Turning around, Richard gulped as he noticed a Celebi arriving. Celebi floated toward the stone, noticing the two rangers.

"How… did you get here?" he asked.

"Please understand," said Seb, "I am one of the Hoenn Rangers."

"Ah, Sebastian Santiago… the Red Relic Hunter Ranger and the Solaris Knight. I expected you to come," said Celebi, looking at him.

"You knew?" asked Seb.

"It is 2106 after all," said Celebi, grinning as he turned to him, "Rangers, he is a legendary ranger. He means no harm. But, he is after treasures to save Hoenn from a terrifying threat. However, I don't know you."

He looked at Richard as Richard gulped. Richard turned around as he looked at him. Richard sighed as he looked at Celebi, full of sadness in his mind as he looked at him. Celebi raised an eyebrow as Richard went to speak.

"My name is Richard Franklin. The Red Eon Ranger of Johto… based on what I was told, I am not even in my own world," said Richard, "There's a Pokémon World exactly like this dimension. I have never knew this existed before. The Celebi who was my mentor…"

He froze as he looked at Celebi. Celebi stood there silent as he looked up, "My mentor is also Celebi. He told us these crystals can be used to enhance our power. I thought I would be able to enhance it without Celebi's help. Celebi wouldn't tell me about those crystals, so my team and I did a little experiment. I had no idea I was going to end up in Hoenn and we thought the Seafloor Crystals would bring us back to Johto. But, not 2106."

Celebi nodded, "I see your point. You do realize that there are some secrets that Celebi keeps to protect you, right?"

"But, you seem more talkative. The Celebi by me doesn't communicate at all. It angers me that I can't figure this out," said Richard, "And because of that… Maxie made me a monster. I can't even morph without Flare nor use any of my abilities! And I have now Monster DNA in me…"

Celebi said nothing as Richard got on his knees, "Celebi, please. I understand that we made a mistake coming here. But, I ask you… please help me and Flare."

Seb watched as tears began to form in Richard's eyes. Richard looked up as he turned to him. Celebi floated toward him as he looked at him, "Richard, it seems that you have a dark past, from what I can tell. However, I understand how much you want to defend the world… and based on your answer, you leave no choice. I will help you."

Seb grinned as he turned to Celebi. Celebi looked up as well, "And you… well, to a point. I noticed Solgaleo has channeled in you and eventually your magical powers will restore."

"My magical powers," said Seb.

"Yes," said Celebi, nodding, "The power of solar energy will be enhanced greatly… when you find the object that will do so. You will know when the time is right."

Seb nodded silently as he walked forward, "But…"

"If I help you even more, I'll disturb the timeline," said Celebi, raising an eyebrow.

"Ah," said Seb, looking at Celebi. Celebi turned around as he looked at Richard. Miborg, his assistant had him go on a table. As Miborg looked over, he went to scan with his device. Looking at the device, he noticed in his scanner something on his screen. The rangers looked up as they noticed the DNA multiplying.

"I see…," said Miborg, "It doesn't look too good."

"What is it?" asked Greg, looking at it. He then turned around as he looked, "Oh…"

"What?" asked Eddie.

"Whatever Maxie did to him," said Greg, turning to the console, "He did a good job. If I don't extract those cells within the hour, Richard will become Pyreon… and Flare will vanish for good."

"So…," said Seb as he looked at him, "You have something for this?"

Greg turned around as he looked at Miborg. Miborg nodded as he turned toward him. Richard looked up as he turned to Seb. Greg grinned as he turned to Miborg, "Don't worry… we have an idea. Right now, I am sure the others can give him a tour of Goldenrod City while we work."

"Sure!" said Anna, grinning, "Come join us!"


Meanwhile…

Maxie turned around as he woke up from the rubble. Looking up, he turned around as he noticed that he was in the rocks of the Shoal Cave. Climbing up, he turned around as he heard different voices. He looked up as he saw a light. As he looked at the light, he was able to peek through and see the other rangers talk to each other.

"Well… they only have 19 hours. They can do it," said Rachel, looking at them, "I believe in Seb."

"Me too," said Grace, "We've been through so much."

"Tell me," said Agré, "You guys used to use magic first before being treasure hunters?"

"Kind of, yeah," said Lamar, "It was really interesting how we all met."

Agré looked over as he turned around, "Well, we have some time. Tell me about your adventures."

Grace looked at him as she turned to the others. She was a little skeptical as she went to speak, "Say what?"

"Well, I have all the time in the world," said Agré, "I also don't get that many Pokémon Trainers who show up. They think they can come to train.."

Rachel shrugged a little as she turned toward Grace. Grace shrugged back as Rachel grinned. Rachel smiled as she looked at her, "Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt to tell about our adventures. Here's what happened…"

While Rachel was telling her story, Maxie laughed silently as he reached for his communication device, "Tabitha and Courtney, if you get this, meet me in the Shoal Cave, I have a plan…"

He turned off the device as he continued to climb up. He looked at the lighting as he reached the top of the cavern. Walking along, he laughed as he looked at them, "If I can't get there, I am going to destroy Atlantis with them inside."


Meanwhile…

Anna and Sabrina opened the doors to the ranger's favorite spot. Seb looked up in awe as he saw what it looked like. It was basically a juice bar with a gym and a Pokémon battle arena. There was even a live band section on the far right. Seb was amazed to see this as he stepped forward.

"This reminds me of the Seashore House in Slateport City!" said Seb.

"Almost!" Eddie said, "This is Golden Youth's."

Eddie laughed as he looked at Sabrina. Sabrina grinned as she got a few smoothies for the gang. Anna and Kurtis were looking at each other as they turned to Eddie. Eddie looked at Seb as he went to speak, "So, tell me Seb… how did you get involved with this ranger stuff?"

"So…," said Seb, looking at Eddie, "I am a Pokémon Historian. I study history of Pokémon and the history around the world. Well, I was in Mauville City when I met my team. They were the Mystic Force Rangers and they sealed the gate to Hades… it's a long story of how that happened."

"Jeez," said Kurtis, sipping a lime smoothie, "Well, we have all the time in the world."

Seb sighed, "Well, I got myself involved in a fight with Zeramses and I touched the Mystic Lamp…."


Back at the Sanctuary…

Richard was knocked unconscious as Miborg and Greg was looking at the viles. He looked at the vile, which had a green liquid. The green liquid contained certain antibodies and magical energy that came from Celebi. Celebi turned around as he looked at him. Greg turned around as he looked at Celebi, "Are you sure your magic will work?"

"Do you doubt me?" asked Celebi.

Greg grinned as he stepped forward. As he looked at Miborg, Miborg pressed the button. Immediately, electronic restraints covered the bed. Greg immediately went to attach the vile to the needle. As he placed the needle in his right arm, he pressed the button. The green liquid went into Richard's arm. Richard screamed as a green light surrounded him. Shaking, he felt Pyreon and him screaming. Miborg looked at his screen. Immediately, Celebi's energy started attacking all of Pyreon's cells.

"It's working!" shouted Miborg.

Within minutes, Richard was knocked unconscious. The red crystal began to shine as it was glowing. Flare looked up, being in the mason jar. Greg walked over as he walked over to the mason jar. Opening the jar, a flash of red light surrounded Flare as he dove right into Richard's jewel. As the jewel began to sparkle, Richard opened his eyes as a red aura surrounded him. He looked up as Flare popped out of his jewel.

'Rich! I'm back!' he shouted.

"Flare!" Rich exclaimed. Immediately, his red jewel began to glow as he looked at him.

"Excellent!" shouted Celebi, grinning as he turned to them. The restraints were released as he looked straight up. He turned to Celebi, Miborg and Greg, "Thank you!"

"Don't worry…," said Miborg, "It was all good!"

Greg nodded as he shook hands with him, "Great!"

No sooner he said, there was an alarm coming from the screen. Greg walked over as he noticed a whole fleet of Armens near the Ilex Forest. This time, there was a new creature. Richard looked over as he noticed that it was Pyreon… but with Sneasel like armaments.

"Guess Nyura made an exact replica," said Celebi, turning to Greg, "You must defend the forest. They need to get to the Ilex Forest Shrine…. Which is a few miles from here."

"Why over there?" asked Greg.

"It's the only way for them to return to the Shoal Cave. They do not have that much time," said Celebi.

Greg nodded as he turned to Richard. Richard nodded as they dashed toward the exit of the Sanctuary. As they dashed, Richard stopped as he turned to Celebi. Celebi nodded as he floated toward him, "When you return to your time, use this…"


Meanwhile…

"Ah," said Agré, looking at them. He turned to them as he looked at the rangers, "Well, I am glad that you were able to recover so many artifacts and slay so many beasts. We don't get this much excitement."

"I'm glad that we were able to entertain," said Rachel.

"And I am glad to hear all about your secrets!"

Rachel turned around as Maxie walked into the main location. However, he brought Courtney and Tabitha with them. Lamar looked at him as he turned toward Rachel. Snapping his finger, Courtney and Tabitha went to charge toward them. Lamar and Rachel began to glow in a blue and red aura. As a wave of water hit the admin, flames emerged as they landed on the ground. Maxie turned around as he withdrew his sword, "Your magic is useless against me. I can't wait to sever this cave so your leader… and my traitor do not return."

"We need to protect Atlantis," said Rachel, taking out her Relic Detector.

"Right!" shouted the rangers, "Relic Hunters, Start Up!"

Sliding the Relic Detectors, the rangers transformed into their suits. Immediately, the rangers withdrew their Hunter Blades as they went to strike the Magma Grunts.


Meanwhile…

Richard dashed over as they arrived in the Ilex Forest. The Armens were looking all over the place as they arrived with their weapons. Richard swung his fist, knocking one of them to the ground. He then used a side kick, knocking one of them landed on the ground. He then turned around as he used a spinning hook kick. Richard's fists began to glow as flames emerged from his fists. As his fists reached out, flames emerged as he burnt the creatures.

Greg dashed over as he kicked a few of them in the stomach. He turned around as he dodged the attacks of others. Flipping backwards as the Armens crushed against each other, knocking on the ground. Turning around, Metal Pyreon jumped forward, slashing Richard and Greg, knocking them on the ground. Greg looked up as he turned around, seeing the creature.

"Ha!" he shouted, "Thank you Sketch!"

"Obviously, Nyura knew about this," said Greg.

"Nyura?" asked Richard.

Greg shook his head, "Yeah, unfortunately. She plans on turning Johto into an ice sculpture."

"Wonderful… almost like someone I know," said Richard, striking a fighting pose.

Metal Pyreon stretched out his hand as he released flames from his right hand. The rangers dodged the attack as they headed toward the creature. As they went to strike, they heard rustling in the trees. Turning around, Eddie, Sabrina, Anna and Kurtis arrived as they stood across. Seb stood behind them as the rangers stood together. Looking around, Eddie noticed a green sparkly object that appeared in front of them. Metal Pyreon turned around as he saw a silver shrine with a lime green aura. He laughed as he looked at them.

"Ah… I destroy this, then everything is going to go into place," he said.

"Seb and Richard, we will handle him. You get to the shrine and get out of here!" Eddie said.

"Are you sure?" asked Richard.

Flare popped out of his jewel, "We don't have time to argue. Let's go!"

Richard nodded as he turned to Seb. Seb nodded as he looked at Richard. The two rangers went to start off. Before they left, Eddie grabbed him by the shoulder. Seb turned around as he looked at Eddie, "Yeah?"

"Let Jack know that I said hi…," said Eddie, grinning. Seb slowly nodded as the two shook hands. Immediately, Eddie pushed Seb a little, giving the hint to go. As Seb went to follow Richard, Metal Pyreon went to strike.

"Goodbye!"

As flames went to strike, another figure kicked him in the stomach. The creature stumbled back as a sixth ranger arrived. He had black messy hair with hazel eyes with a medium build. He wore a white sleeveless t-shirt with a blue long sleeve shirt and black jeans.

"Kris, where have you been?" asked Eddie.

"Training. Celebi and Miborg called me… multiple times," said Kris.

"I will destroy them and then destroy you!" he shouted.

As Metal Pyreon went to aim his blaster at them, the Armens arrived as well. Metal Pyreon laughed as he looked at the creatures, "Kill those humans! They are headed for the shrine!"

"We can't let that happen!" Eddie shouted, "Let's move!"

"Right!" shouted the rangers.

They revealed their morphers, simple morphers with bracelets and on top the symbol of their element. Kris's morpher was gold with a red and blue swirl.

"Morph, I Choose You!"

Pressing the button on the morphers, six colors of light surrounded them as they transformed into their suits.

Eddie was engulfed in flames, donning his red ranger suit. He wore a red suit with white sleeves and white pants. He had red gloves and red boots. He also had a GS Ball emblem on the right side of his chest. His helmet resembled a Typhlosion as he looked at his adversary in the face.

Sabrina was engulfed in lightning bolts as she donned her yellow ranger suit. She wore the yellow version of Eddie's suit with a skirt. Her helmet resembled an Amphraos.

Greg was surrounded by water as his blue ranger suit digitized, the similar suit to the other three. Greg's helmet resembled a Feraligatr.

Kurtis had leaves surrounding his body as he transformed into his suit. It was the green version of the others. Immediately, the Meganium helmet materialized on his head.

Anna had psychic energy surrounding her body as a pink suit similar to Sabrina's arrived. She then looked up as an Espeon helmet materialized on her face.

Finally, a draconic wave of energy surrounded Kris as his suit appeared. He wore a white suit similar to the others. However, he had golden wings attached on the back of his suit. His boots matched his morpher as well as him wearing a golden visor, with a helmet shaped like a Dragonite.

"Red Typhlosion Power!"

"Yellow Ampharos Power!"

"Blue Feraligatr Power!"

"Green Meganium Power!"

"Pink Espeon Power!"

"White Dragonite Power!"

The six rangers then struck a pose, "Poké Rangers Johto!"


Meanwhile…

The other rangers were fighting in the Shoal Cave using their weapons. Rachel and the others were using their Hunter Sabers to destroy the Magma Grunts. As they fell, Courtney and Tabitha jumped on the ground with their weapons.

"Engage weaponry!" shouted Rachel.

Pressing on their belt buckles, the rangers took out their weapons.

"Doom Hammer!"

"Swamp Blaster!"

"Thunder Scooper!"

"Psychic Cutters!"

Courtney released a few arrows from her crossbow. Immediately, Rachel and Grace blocked them as they went for the attack. Grace and Rachel jumped forward as they had their weapons. Grace used her Psychic Cutters to cut Courtney across. Rachel used her Thunder Scoopers to slash her in the stomach. She turned around as she released another attack using her golden arrows. Rachel blocked the attack as she tightened her grips on the scoopers. Lightning surrounded them as she slashed Courtney in the face.

"Thunder Strike!"

Thunder and electricity struck from her scooper, hitting Courtney in the face.

"Psycho Cut!"

Pink psychic waves struck Courtney with full force, spinning around as she landed on the ground. Smacking her head into the ground, the two rangers nodded as she looked at each other.

"I guess Courtney is unable to battle?" asked Grace, laughing.

Tabitha was struck hard by the Doom Hammer and the Swamp Blaster. Turning around, Tabitha looked up as he saw Lamar jumping up to the ground. He stretched his legs out as he raised the Doom Hammer above his head.

"Shadow Slammer!"

Dark energy smacked the top of Tabitha's head. As Tabitha winced, he stumbled backwards as he went to strike. Zander charged through with his Swamp Blaster.

"Aqua Blast!"

A blast of water energy surrounded as he pierced Tabitha's armor. Tabitha yelled as he stumbled around, landing on top of Courtney. As the two struggled, Maxie appeared as he looked at them.

"Let's show them our power!" he shouted.

Courtney and Tabitha slowly nodded as they placed their hands on Maxie's shoulder. Maxie channeled his energy as a red and gold aura surrounded him.

"Magma Impulse!"

As a wave of flames and energy surrounded them, he stretched out the energy wave. The rangers screamed as they were hit by the attack. However, the energy wave hit the cave structure. As the cave structure started rumbling, Agré watched as he looked at the cave walls.

"Sebastian… Richard!" he shouted.

"Ha! Now they can't come back if they tried…," said Maxie, "Now, I will end the four of you with my new machines."

"New machines?" asked Zander.

Maxie laughed as he raised his black communication device, shaped like a cell phone, "Mags, hit it!"

"You got it!"

Turning around, explosions surrounded the rangers as they flipped toward the dirt. Looking up, the rangers noticed red and golden jets with Team Magma logos attached to either side.

"What the heck?" asked Rachel.

Flame rockets were launched, dropping toward them.

"TAKE COVER!" shouted Lamar.

As the four rangers jumped out of the way, explosions appeared behind him. Ducking in the dirt, the rangers then heard the sounds of loud high powered engines. Grace looked up as she noticed red and black tanks were charging forward.

"I guess they got new powered material," said Grace.

"We need the zords," said Zander, taking his morpher out, "Relic Hunter Zords, all zords launch!"


Back in the dimension…

Richard and Seb dodged through the Armens as they kept running. As one went to strike, Seb blocked the attack and threw him across. Using a back kick, the Armen landed on the ground. Richard chopped one in the neck and threw a sidekick. The two of them continued running as they flipped forward, kicking a few of them in the face. As the Armens landed on the ground, Richard turned around as he noticed a few more coming toward them.

"They just won't stop!" shouted Richard.

Seb turned around as he clenched his fist. As one went to raise his fist, Seb's eyes opened as golden energy surrounded his fist. He then opened his eyes as he threw a punch at the Armen, sending him across the trees. Turning around, Richard released flames from his hands, burning the Armens.

"Tag team?" asked Richard.

"Yeah!" shouted Seb.

Standing back to back, the Armens were heading toward them. Seb nodded as a solar energy aura surrounded him. As an energy formed around him, Richard began to feed off the energy, increasing the flames. Instantly, the solar light and the flames gave off enough energy that the creatures burned to the ground without even any physical contact. Seeing nothing but ash, the rangers turned around, seeing the shrine. They were only a half a mile away, but with the distance from when they saw it, it could be seen by a Taillow.

The two of them continued dashing toward the shrine. Only to hear explosions from behind, as the two rangers landed on the ground. They looked up as they noticed Metal Pyreon.

"I am not letting you go!" he said.

Richard looked up as he turned to Seb, "I think it's time we stand our ground!"

"Seb!"

Seb turned around, noticing the Johto Rangers. Seb turned around as he took out his Relic Detector. Shining, he then noticed something as he saw the portal, lights began to activate on his morpher.

"What?" Richard asked.

"I am able to access the morphing grid," said Seb, "We are awfully close to the portal… but why don't we take care of him?"

"Gladly," said Richard.

Metal Pyreon laughed as he went to charge through. Seb put his Relic Detector above his right shoulder, "Relic Hunters, Start Up!"

A red Blaziken struck out of the morpher as well as blueprints of his suit, weapons and zords in red lights. The blueprint began to shine in a red aura as the blueprint wrapped around Seb's body. A red suit appeared. He had red gloves, red boots with silver rims on the top of the gloves and boots. He had white chest plating with a red and white Poké Ball that had a compass attached to it. He had his Relic Blaster attached to the right side, with his Relic Detector attached to the back. His helmet was red with Blaziken like designs with white lights along the visor.

"The fiery adventurer! Relic Hunter Red!"

Immediately, Richard placed his morpher and activated it, "Bring on the Power of Eon!"

Glowing red lines spread from the octagon's corners across Richard's body, the top two going over his shoulders and meeting behind his neck, the two middle sets circling at his midsection and meeting behind his back, and the bottom ones going lower to meet on the small of his back where a belt would sit. From his Eon Crystal, Flareon rose into the air above him. Forming a fireball, it launched down to explode around him, transforming into his ranger suit. It was mostly red, with golden straps where the lines had gone, a golden belt with a buckle that had the word 'Eon' engraved into it and white boots and gloves. The Flareon transformed into a Flareon-style helmet.

"Fire Power! Red Eon Ranger!"

Metal Pyreon released silver flames from his mouth. The two rangers dodged the attack as they rolled forward. Seb jumped up as he pressed his belt.

"Blaze Lance!"

As he twirled across, Metal Pyreon was hit by the attack. Spinning around, Richard used a spinning hook kick across his face. Metal Pyreon turned around as he was then looked at the portal. As he went to charge an energy beam, Richard and Seb dashed forward as they used their weapons. Pushing Metal Pyreon, the creature screamed as they went through the portal together. The portal collapsed behind them.

A flash of green, black and white light surrounded them as they were in transit. As Metal Pyreon screamed, Richard and Seb were sucked through. Metal Pyreon laughed, as the white light surrounded them. The three of them landed on the ground, outside the portal. Metal Pyreon laughed as he released silver beams. Richard and Seb blocked them with their weapons as they rolled forward, pushing the creature into the water barrier. Metal Pyreon screamed, gasping for air as Seb started swimming upwards. Noticing the creature was trying to swim back, Richard pointed to a quarry of rocks that were located along the wall.

Immediately, Seb pulled out his Relic Blaster. Shooting the rocks, the rocks started crumbling down, hitting Metal Pyreon as he was plummeted down toward the bottom of the city. As the underwater city began to vibrate due to the destruction of the rock wall, Seb and Richard started swimming upwards as they landed to the surface.

As they reached the surface, they noticed something different about the cave. The cave had a lot of rock walls collapse. Seb and Richard looked around as they turned to see nothing but a big hole above them.

"This is lovely," said Richard, "We better start climbing."

"Yep," said Seb. As the two rangers started climbing on the rocks, they were carefully trying not to touch any rocks that were loose enough to collapse. As the climbing continued, they could hear sounds of laser blasts.

"Do you hear that?" asked Richard.

"Yeah," said Seb, "It looks like there's trouble outside of the cave."

They were about a good halfway up from the exit. As the climbing continued, a shiny claw appeared from below. He looked up as his whole body floated, noticing the rangers climbing to escape. Metal Pyreon laughed as he looked at them. Silver beams shot out of his hand as they headed directly toward Seb and Richard. The rockets hit the rocks, causing a major eruption in the cave wall. Seb and Richard yelled as they fell down heading toward the floor. Richard looked down noticing Metal Pyreon. He laughed as he looked at them with his fists clenched.

"I traveled 100 years into the past to destroy someone like you. Come on, Richie… let's work together! Team Magma entrusted you… it only makes sense!" he shouted.

"I don't work for Maxie," said Richard, looking at the creature, "You were just created to serve him. I was just your host!"

"You are a part of me…," he said, laughing, "I know all about you. Your past, your thoughts… growing up in that orphanage, the Remnants… I know it all. You have to join with me."

Richard shook his head, "I don't plan on joining you. Fire Blaster!"

Taking out his weapon, he aimed directly at the creature. Before he could press the trigger, Metal Pyreon stretched out his claw and released silver lines from his claw. Richard froze as he tried to press the trigger. As he clenched to his weapon, he heard a loud shout from in front of him. Richard looked up as he noticed Seb stood in front of him. Seb cringed in pain as he landed on the ground.

"Seb… why?" asked Richard.

Seb looked up as he turned to Richard, "What's… more important is getting you back to your time… are you honestly going to let someone try to influence you based on your past mistakes?"

"Well, no," said Richard.

"Then, why are you going to listen to someone like that?" asked Seb, "Remember, Pyreon was created from Maxie and then it was altered… he's no longer a part of you. It's just another monster of the week. Yes, you made mistakes in the past. Does it matter? No. Yes, you accidentally were sent here but from what I can tell you never gave up. Celebi gave you the answers to get us back here and we made it! This creature is no longer part of you!"

Metal Pyreon chased forward as he looked at Seb. Seb turned around as he stretched out his metal claw. Screaming, Seb stretched out his Blaze Lance. A golden aura surrounded his lance as he raised it in the air. Slashing him, Metal Pyreon screamed as he flew around. Sparks appeared as he landed on the pavement.

"Finish him!" shouted Seb.

Richard nodded as he took out his Fire Blaster. A red energy charge surrounded it as he pulled the trigger. A fireball appeared as it swirled right into Metal Pyreon's body. He screamed as he landed on the ground, causing another explosion, however landing in the ocean. Richard dropped to his knees as he looked at the damage. Seb looked over as he stretched out his hand. Richard looked up as he climbed up to his feet. Flare appeared on his morpher, grinning from ear to ear.

"It's about time that creature got toasted!" said Flare.

Richard grinned a little as he shook Seb's hand. Seb nodded as he reached for his Relic Detector, "Jack, this is Seb."

"I am guessing you are back home?" asked Jack, over the intercom.

"Yes… but, it's a long story. Richard is still with me and Shoal Cave looks destroyed," said Seb.

"Yeah, Maxie destroyed part of the chamber. I am sending you something…" said Jack, "Should be there… now."

A gust of wind appeared on the surface as the two rangers looked up at the shining sky. An Aerodactyl was floating overhead, except it was mainly a robotic version of an Aerodactyl with red stripes on either side. A red light appeared on the surface floor as Seb's Relic Driver appeared. Seb grabbed the Relic Driver and turned to Richard, "You ready?"

"I can't wait to get out!" said Richard.

Seb nodded as he grabbed on to Richard and pressed the green button. A red aura surrounded them as they teleported into the Aerodactyl Zord. Richard stood behind him as Seb sat down in the cockpit.

"Whoa…," said Richard.

"This is going to be fun," said Flare.

"Well…," said Seb, "I never -."

Suddenly, red beams hit the armor as Seb turned around. The Magma Fighters were heading straight toward him. Red and golden beams were hitting some of the armor. Immediately, the Aerodactyl Zord flew across as they dodged the attack. Flying across, he could see the other rangers fighting in their zord. His zords and the other zords looked like they were on auto pilot.

"Seb!"

Grace's screen appeared to the side, "I am glad you are okay."

"Same!" said Seb, pressing a few buttons, "How's everyone else?"

"Great!" shouted Rachel, holding on to her controls.

"Better than ever," said Lamar, "Now that you're back."

Zander sighed as he was driving around with his zord, "Well… can we get started?"

Seb nodded as he turned around. Looking at the groups, it seemed Team Magma had its full force of Magma Tanks and Fighters heading toward them.

"Wow… I've never seen this type of armory," said Richard.

"Richard, do you have a zord?" asked Seb, turning around.

Richard turned around as he looked at Flare, "Yep."

"I think its time we showed Team Magma we mean business," said Flare, speaking out of Richard's morpher.

"Let's go!" shouted Richard.

Seb pressed a button on the far-right hand side of his console. As the windshield retracted back, Richard jumped up as he lifted out of the cockpit. Flying down, a red aura surrounded himself as Flare emerged out of his morpher, growing larger into a mega sized zord. Richard slid down into the cockpit as he sat down, ready to go.

Flames surrounded Flare as the tanks started shooting, missing him. Flare began to glow in a red aura as the flames began to disappear, channeling into Flare's fur. As a red aura surrounded its fur, Flare laughed as he looked at the tanks.

"This is nothing," said Flare, looking at the tanks.

"Let's use those flames and burn them!" said Richard.

Flare released a Flamethrower attack, destroying a field of tanks on the island. The rangers stopped fighting as they watched the explosions.

"Wow!" Zander said, looking at the battle. Turning around, he noticed a few Magma Fighters flying across, shooting ruby and gold beams, hitting the Swampert Zord. Landing on the ground, Zander tried to release water attacks, but they could easily dodge the attack. The fighters aimed directly at all of the zords, shooting them down.

"There is NO way to destroy these fighters," said Rachel.

"… Until now," a voice said in the cockpit. Rachel and the others turned around as JT appeared on the screen, "Rangers, I managed to upload the upgrade your combinations. You can combine all zords now!" JT said.

Seb nodded as he turned to the screen, "Rangers, Ultimate Adventure Fusion!"

"Right!" shouted the others. Seb pressed 1 through 0 and then spun the spinner on the morpher.

Ultimate Adventure Fusion Start-Up System Begin: Blaziken, Houndoom, Swampert, Manectric, Gallade, Beedrill, Gyarados, Abomasnow, Heracross, Aerodactyl!

The Houndoom and the Manectric got on all fours. The legs began to shrink as they turned into wheels. Leaving the heads where they were, their bodies lifted 90 degrees. The Blaziken Zord jumped up into the air as it landed on top of the zord legs. A red and golden charge surrounded the zords as they combined. The Swampert Zord divided in half. The Swampert's head and chest popped out as the body split in half, connecting to either side of Blaziken. The chest connected to the front of the Blaziken with the head covering the Blaziken. Last, the Gallade Zord flipped up as it put its legs together and spread its arms wide. Connecting to the back, Gallade Zord's arms wrapped around the chest. Golden eyes appeared on the helmet as the Megazord formed.

The Abomasnow Zord's head projected off from its body. The Abomasnow Zord split in half as the bottom half flipped up ninety degrees. The Abomasnow Zord's body connected to the armor of the Relic Hunter Megazord's legs. The Beedrill Zord folded its arms as it connected to the right arm of the Megazord, with the stinger facing the opponent. The Gyarados Zord split in half and covered the left arm of the Megazord. The bottom half and the top half snapped together on the left arm. The Heracross Zord snapped to the back of the Megazord with the horn detached. The Abomasnow's head detached as it connected to the left arm of the Megazord.

The Aerodactyl flew across as its head detached, forming the helmet of the Megazord. The body connected to the back of the Relic Hunter Megazord with the tail detached. The tail connected to the right arm of the Megazord, forming the saber. The cockpits appeared in the same location as the rangers were looking around.

"Relic Hunter Ultrazord… Assembly Complete!"

"Activate engines!" shouted Seb.

Immediately, engines ignited as the Relic Hunter Ultrazord flew across. The Magma Fighters started shooting the Ultrazord, causing beams to go back and forth. As the Ultrazord turned around, red targets appeared all over the scanners.

"Electro Balls, fire!" shouted Seb.

As Lamar pressed the button the console, twenty to thirty yellow balls sparkled with electricity, piercing the fighters. The fighters ignited in flames as they landed in the water shooting them down. As more started swooping, Seb turned around as he pressed a few buttons, "Target the next wave of fighters… this time… Razor Leaf attack," said Seb.

"Targets locked," said Lamar.

"Fire!" shouted Seb.

Pressing the button, green leaves shot out of the Megazord, piercing the fighters as they flew into each other, causing a major explosion in the sky.

"We did it!" shouted the rangers.

Richard laughed as he looked, "Awesome!"

Without warning, a silver claw crushed Flare as he flipped to the side. Richard hung on as he tried to get up. Flare looked up as Metal Pyreon looked at him… mega sized.

"How?" asked Flare.

"I don't want to know…," said Richard, "But, we got to take him on!"

"Silver Fire!" he shouted. A silver aura surrounded his body as he unleashed a bright white light. Silver lights surrounded him as flames were unleashed. Richard turned to Flare as Flare tried to absorb as much flames as he could.

"He has so much power! I don't know if I can absorb it!" Flare shouted.

"Keep trying," said Richard, "We need to fight back!"

As Flare increased energy, Metal Pyreon began to charge an energy beam. As he did, the Relic Hunter Ultrazord blocked it with its shield. Flare turned around as he looked at the creature, releasing the flames of what Flare could absorb Immediately, the shield blocked the attack and reflected it back. Sparks flew around the creature as he turned to him.

"I will make this happen!"

"Like I will let you do that!" shouted Seb, "Rangers, let's finish him off!"

"Right!" shouted the rangers. Before they could energize their finisher, flame bombs surrounded them as the Megazord fell backwards. Turning around, Mags walked over in mega sized form.

"Mags!" shouted the rangers.

"Did you forget me? Allow me to team up," said Mags.

"Let's do it!" shouted Metal Pyreon.

The two creatures began to energize in red and silver energy. As they stretched out their hands, silver flames and orange flames combined as the Relic Hunter Ultrazord was hit. As the Megazord stumbled, the flames were surrounding the zord.

"We can't handle this much heat at this rate," said Zander.

"We need to stop them at the source!" Seb shouted, clenching his fist as he looked at the console.

Flare turned around as he looked at the creature.

"Rich, I have an idea," said Flare, "Let's sneak behind."

Richard nodded as he moved around. Flare jumped up behind the area, noticing that they weren't even paying attention. As the flames intensified, Mags laughed as he released a punch. The punch caused the Relic Hunter Ultrazord to stay stable. Mags screamed as he stumbled to the ground. Metal Pyreon jumped up as he released silver claws. Cutting across, the creature yelled as his nails broke.

"Weak attack!" shouted Seb.

"Why…," yelled Metal Pyreon. Before he could say anything, Metal Pyreon turned around a little too late. Flare rolled into a wheel engulfed in flames. He ran both Mags and Metal Pyreon over. As the creatures yelled, Mags and Metal Pyreon were knocked into the sky and then landed on the ground, causing a massive vibration.

"Thank you, Rich!" shouted Seb.

"No problem. Get rid of them!" Richard replied.

Immediately, the Relic Hunter Ultrazord lifted off from the beach. Immediately, silver beams were released. The Relic Hunter Ultrazord dodged the attack. Floating, the zords began to glow as it connected to the center of the Ultrazord. The Abomasnow Shield and the tail of the Aerodactyl combined as it turned into a crossbow. It was a white crossbow with a grey nozzle. It had a green scope attached to it.

"Hunter Crossbow! Target locked!"

Immediately, the red crosshairs aimed directly around Metal Pyreon and Mags.

"Relic Hunter Ultrazord, Sky Attack!"

A red and orange blast shot out of the crossbow. It shaped into a phoenix as it drilled into Metal Pyreon and Mags. Metal Pyreon and Mags screamed as red sparks surrounded them, exploding into pieces.

"Alright!" shouted the rangers.

"Awesome!" Richard shouted.

"Yeah… finally!" Flare shouted.

A few minutes later, the six rangers met up outside as they turned to the Shoal Cave… or what was left of it. Agré walked over as he turned to them. He looked at the new zords and then at the rangers.

"Well… is the portal still intact?" asked Agré.

"Yes," said Richard, grinning, turning to Agré. Agré looked at him as he looked at the Shoal Cave. Richard grinned as he turned to Agré, "I realized that you were right. We ended up in Johto, but in a different time."

"Hopefully, you didn't destroy the timeline," said Agré, raising an eyebrow.

"No… we ended up in the 22nd Century. It wasn't as bad," said Seb, looking at Richard, "But, we did find a way to get home and that's all that mattered."

"But…," said Richard, looking at the compact. Opening, he did look at the Seafloor Crystals, "We did find a way for me to get back."

"How?" asked Seb.

Richard grinned as he turned around, "Well, you are just going to have to wait and see, Seb."

Seb sighed as he looked at Richard. He was grinning from ear to ear as he looked at Seb. Agré chuckled, as the others followed. Agré grinned as he turned to Richard, "Why, Celebi is an amazing being. I am sure that you can use it to return."

Richard grinned, "Hopefully, the portal can be used again."

"Its still protected by my powers…," said Agré, "As long as I live. I wish you the best in finding the artifacts to bring peace to this planet."

The rangers watched as Agré started walking away. Seb folded his arms as he turned to Richard. Richard grinned as he turned to the others. Richard couldn't wait to tell his friends what happened to him on this journey.


Later that afternoon…

Richard shook hands with Seb as they were sitting at Ranger HQ. Eddie was also there as he turned to Richard, knowing what he gone through was insane. Jack grinned as he turned around, looking at the Seafloor Crystals. Ray walked over with the Seafloor Crystals as they began to energize in a greenish-bluish energy field.

"Well…," said Ray, "I was able to lock on to your location down in your dimension. These Seafloor Crystals will only be useful for this transport only."

"Do you think we will be able to use that again?" asked Grace.

"Eventually, but right now, it's too early to tell," said Ray, looking at the group. Richard turned around as he looked at Seb. Seb nodded slowly as he stared at Richard. Richard gulped as he turned toward them, "I am so glad to have been on this adventure."

"I'm glad I was able to join you," said Seb, looking at him, "Be safe."

"Good luck with your mission," said Richard, turning to Eddie. Eddie stood there as he looked at him. Richard chuckled, "I can't believe I am meeting a grown-up version."

Eddie nodded as he turned around, "Eventually, I knew this would happen. I am glad we were able to solve the problem."

Richard grinned as he shook hands with him. Richard stepped up on one of the transporter pads. Looking at them, Flare was shining from his crystal.

'I totally would stay!' Flare said into his crystal.

"Me too, Flare. Me too," said Richard, "But, Celebi's waiting for us and the rest of our team."

Ray nodded as he pressed the green button and the lever. Richard watched as a green and white light surrounded him, teleporting him away from this dimension. As the lights turned off and on in the room, Ray turned around as he looked at the scanner. Nothing changed as the crystals stood.

"The Seafloor Crystals are still working," said Ray, grinning.

"That's good news…," said Seb, looking at them, to take a closer. As he reached for them, the other rangers were looking at him as he went to pull out the pile of crystals. As Seb removed his hand, he noticed a blue sapphire jewel out of it.

"Is that what I think it is?" asked Zander.

Seb grinned as he looked at it, "Yep."

A blue aura surrounded the crystal as it left Seb's hand. As the group headed to the main room, they noticed the blue crystal attached to the Crown of Weather.

"That was the second jewel of the crown," said Seb.

"Wow!" said Rachel, "So, that's two right?"

"Yep," said Jack, sighing, "We are so close to finishing our goal."

The rangers nodded as they looked at the Crown of Weather. Turning to the group, Eddie and Jack looked at each other, shaking hands as they looked at the shining crystals above.


Next Chapter:

Darcie: That's my mirror!

?: It's our property!

Rachel: Who are you?

?: We want you…

?: We need to save Rachel or we are going to have an issue.

Seb: Well, it's finally nice to see you again!

Poké Rangers Relic Hunters Chapter 18: Mirrors of Destruction


A/N: So, two jewels down and three to go! Thank you, GoldenMewtwo for letting me borrow Richard Franklin for this story. So… how did he end up here? Well… you might want to read Poké Rangers: Eon Force. It's a really great story! All 50 Chapters are up to review. You will need to go to the crossovers Pokémon section to find the story. I still have to catch up and read the rest, but the story is well written and GoldenMewtwo has a lot planned for you all in the future.

And thanks to Psyduck Ranger for the Johto Rangers. If you haven't heard about them, you might want to read his stories based on the Johto Region. See Poké Rangers Johto for more information.

Let me explain the background of what happened here…

This was based on the two-part episode "Face to Face". However, I decided to break a few dimensions. Richard, as you know, was from Poké Rangers Eon Force that was swept away from his dimension to the universe here. Well, I figured why not take them to a dimension where they go to the year 2106 and meet Psyduck's Johto Rangers?

I also left it opened intentionally for the Johto Rangers to finish them off. The main goal of this chapter was to get Seb and Richard back… so, I wanted to focus more on that. Well, you can read the story on Poké Rangers Eon Force, jump back to these two chapters and then read on if you are interested…

Next…

We start a brand new story arc next chapter. Some questions might be answered… and if you have gotten to this point, about 1/3 of the season has been finished. There's new stuff happening starting next chapter. I am currently writing Chapter 25 when you see this. By the time October comes, half of the season will be completed. I also ask that you take the time to fill out the Black Ranger Survey. I have a Pink, Yellow and Blue Ranger for the Dream Team. I need to make a ranger team for my "Once a Ranger" arc coming soon. The poll for the Black Ranger closes on Saturday, July 24th.

That is all! I hope you have a wonderful evening.
