A/N: Here's Chapter 28 of the book! I hope you enjoy!


"7… 7… Grape?"

Seb sighed as he looked at the slot machine. He realized how much he lost within two to three tries at the slot machine on the cruise ship. He then turned around, noticing Zander with the slot machine. Seb watched as Zander got all three 7s in a row. As Zander grinned as all of the coins emerged out of the slot machine.

"I WIN!" he shouted, "I WIN! I WIN! I WIN!"

Zander was jumping up for joy as he walked toward Seb, "See, Seb? This is amazing."

Seb sighed as he turned around, "Well, I know how to lose gracefully."

"It's all about luck," said Zander, grinning as he turned to him.

"You do realize that the slot machines are rigged to make you pay more?" asked Seb, shaking his head, "Never mind, I am out."

"Come on, live a little," said Zander.

Seb rolled his eyes as he looked at Zander. He pointed to him as he looked at the slot machine, "I would rather fight Team Magma or Aqua right now then lose all of my money in a slot machine."

He turned around as he walked away. Zander turned around as he looked at him, "Whatever buddy."


A few minutes later…

Seb walked over toward the main suite as he turned the golden knob. Opening the door, he walked toward Grace, who was on her laptop. Eating a celery stick, she was on her music app, looping beats as she turned around, looking at Seb as he wrapped his arms around her.

"How's your single coming along?" asked Seb.

"Ugh…," said Grace, "I kind of wish I had all of my other stuff from home to work on this major single."

Seb grinned as he went to massage her back muscles. Grace grinned as she looked up, "I don't know if a massage will work."

"Well, how about-," he started to say and Grace shook her head, "No."

Seb sighed as he looked at her. Grace shrugged as she looked at him, "Besides, its my lucky day today."

"Lucky day?" asked Seb, "Where did you read that?"

Grace took out her phone, which was located on the table. She opened her phone as she read the article, "Today, you and your family will have amazing luck! Good luck and may you have the best wishes on Earth… unfortunately your significant other may have the worst luck today."

"Best wishes," said Seb, looking at Grace, "Grace, you can't go by that."

"Well, why not?" asked Grace, looking at Seb.

The red ranger shrugged, "Because it doesn't make any sense at all."

Grace nodded her head as she turned to him, "Oh, I get it. You don't believe in luck."

"No way… too much superstition," said Seb, looking at the pink ranger without a care. She looked at Seb as she shook her head. Seb grinned as he kissed her on the forehead, "I'll let you get back to your mixing."

She grinned as Seb walked away. Seb turned around as he went to leave her, only for his Relic Detector to activate. He placed the Relic Detector to his ear, "Yes?"

"Hey, guys! Long time no see!" Max said over the intercom, "I was away with Jack doing something important. Anyway, I found a really strong artifact and you guys are near it."

"What is it?" asked Seb.

"It's the Board of Chance," said Max, looking at the artifact online, "And from what I could tell, from out of all the artifacts, I am getting a very, very, VERY strong reading."

Suddenly, alarms were filling the ship. Seb turned around as he walked over to the balcony. He turned around as he noticed a few people running away on the cruise ship as the rangers encountered a Charizard like creature with a metallic body and black and orange wings. He also had a ruby diamond and sphere attached to the back of his body. He also had a red and black octagon with a cobalt sphere that protruded, "Stealing this so I can inflict bad luck on people."

"Well, so much for peace," said Seb, "Grace, let's go!"

As people started screaming and running away, the monster came straight toward the main deck. Looking at the deck, he then noticed five people heading toward him. He looked around as he saw Seb in front of him. To his left, Rachel and Lamar and then to his right, Grace and Zander. He looked as he turned to them.

"Welcome to my fortune teller ride! I plan on giving all bad luck today!" he shouted.

"Surrender the Board," said Seb.

Grace took out her Relic Detector, scanning it, "Hazard Level: 95."

The creature laughed, "Charchance does not give you a chance!"

"Then, we have no choice," said Seb, "Rangers?"

The rangers immediately took out their Relic Detectors, "Relic Hunters, Start Up!"

Chapter 28: Out of Luck

Seb and the others transformed into their suits as they withdrew their Hunter Sabers. Immediately, Charchance swung his tail as he smacked all five of them. He turned around as he noticed people around him. Lamar, Zander and Seb all stood on one point. Grace and Rachel stood together at one. Charchance grinned as he looked at him.

"Well, now this is where it gets fun," he said, "Black in the west, Blue in the south, Pink/Yellow in the east and Red in the north. Now, allow me to say if you are in the north, you are out of luck.

"Out of luck?" asked Seb, "You are going to regret that!"

Immediately, Zander withdrew his Relic Blaster. Pulling the trigger, a blue blast pierced through. Turning around, Charchance dodges as the blast pierced Seb in the chest. Seb yelled as he landed on the ground. The rangers turned around as Seb struggled to get up. Looking up, Seb struggled to get up as Charchance activated the Board of Chance, "Now…"

He turned around as the rangers stood in front, Charchance grinned as the board began to glow a crimson aura. He placed the Board of Chance in front of him as crimson and golden energy beams shot Seb. Seb yelled as a compass formed around him in red lighting. Seb looked at him as Charchance laughed.

"What did you do?" asked Seb.

"You will see when you get a chance. I marked you with a curse and now who knows what will happen!" he shouted, laughing as flames engulfed him. Disappearing, Seb dashed forward to chase him, only to trip and fall as he landed on the ground.

"Damn," Seb shouted.


Ten minutes later…

Seb stood at Ranger HQ, looking at the others as he stood twelve or more feet apart. Max and Jack looked at Seb as Zander went to explain.

"Yeah, the Board of Chance gave all of us a run… but gave Seb the bad luck," said Zander.

"Yup!" Seb stated, looking at the group, "I would suggest you stay away from me."

"But," said Grace, but before she could complete her full thought, Seb placed his finger on her lips. He shook her head as he walked away. As he went to walk away, he knocked into a cup of coffee on the table. The cup fell down as coffee spilled on his pants. Cringing in pain, he sat down as he spun around, landing on the floor. As he landed on the floor, the chair fell on top of him. The rangers dashed over to help Seb up, only for Seb to lift the chair up himself. As he got up, he looked at the others, "Damn it!"

"You are cursed… really cursed," Rachel said, looking at him.

"And don't ask me to help because magic won't cure it," Cedric said as he entered the main room. The rangers turned around as Cedric walked toward them, this time with a white scroll in hand. Cedric opened up the scroll as the rangers turned to it. On the scroll were imprints and paintings about the Board of Chance.

"The Board of Chance is based on the Ancient Kantonians. It was used in rituals to help give good fortune to those who experience pain and torture. Every six years, a man was lucky enough to stand to the north of the direction of the board. If granted, they would get their wish, depending on the angle of the board and the environment. Seeing it wasn't in Seb's favor, a curse was placed upon him," said Cedric, grinning as he looked at Seb. Seb stood there silently as he looked at him. He took a deep breath, "You mean to tell me I was unlucky."

"Correct," said Cedric.

Seb sighed as he turned around, "Well, this is fun."

"Unfortunately, you will need the board back and you will have to capture Charchance to reverse the spell," said Max, "The Kantonians failed catching the mastermind years ago."

"So… we capture Charchance and the board, that's a good idea!" Grace said, "But, its easier said than done at this point."

Seb nodded as he walked away. As he went to walk away, the others went to follow. He put his hand up, "I am good."

As he turned around, he smacked his head into the door. He looked behind him as he rubbed his nose. He pressed the button on the door as the door opened in front. He walked inside and closed the door behind him.

"Should we go?" asked Grace, looking at the door.

"Let him handle it," Cedric said.


Meanwhile…

Seb walked along the cruise ship, enjoying himself as he was having a bottle of beer in hand. Sighing, he noticed a white wooden chair that was in front of him. Sitting on the chair, he grinned as he sipped the beer, "Ah…"

As he finished sighing, he heard the boards creaking underneath him. Looking at the chair, he dropped as the chair broke. The beer bottle slipped out of his hand, flipped in the air and smacked him in the head. The beer bottle broke in half as he rolled his eyes. Landing on the ground, he looked up as he noticed a golden pipe about to fall in front of him. Seb yelled as he rolled across, seeing the pipe smack the wreckage. He looked up as he then sighed. He then turned around as he heard rolling. He looked across as he noticed a Poliwrath, a Machamp and a Primeape running after a piano… on wheels, heading toward Seb. Seb yelled as he started running down the deck with the piano rolling. As he dashed out of the way, the 88 key grand piano flew into the water, making obnoxious sounds as the Pokémon stood there in aghast. Seb stood there, breathing heavily.

"Arceus, please make this stop!"


Meanwhile…

Charchance was sitting next to two Magma Grunts. Courtney and Tabitha were looking at the sky scraper as Charchance noticed where they were. He grinned as he saw the cruise ship park at the island. It was an island with casinos, hotels and even a few other things that made this island popular.

"Ah, Vegas Island," said Courtney, looking at Tabitha, "So, Charchance, I think its time we get a chance to give them luck."

Charchance nodded as he looked at the board. He stood up as he stretched the board in the air. A blue aura surrounded him as he looked at the directions. He knelt down as he placed his hand on the building, feeling the seismic activity.

"The pulse feels different… which means I need to alter my position to the back of me," he said.

As he faced the mountains, he raised the board above him. A red and pink aura surrounded the town as he closed his eyes. Opening his eyes, a blue beam emerged from the board, releasing blue and yellow energy all over the city.


Back at Ranger HQ…

Grace, Urara and Zander were sitting at the table as they were on laptops, all researching more about the Board of Chance.

"Anything?" asked Urara.

"Well, we did send Lamar and Rachel to look up the good luck charms," said Zander, turning to Grace, "Hopefully, Cedric sent the right list."

Cedric, who overheard his name, was reading a book on the Board of Chance, "You think I was wrong?"

"We don't know," said Grace, turning around as she looked at the laptop. As she scrolled down on a web page, the door opened behind her. Rachel and Lamar walked in with a bag full of stuff. Grace turned around as she looked, "Well?"

"Well, luckily, your parents were nice to give us your lucky charms," said Lamar, "I have Zander's emerald tuxedo suit jacket and my blue Pokémon hat."

"I also have Grace's yellow and black scarf," said Rachel, "And my red and black necklace."

"Also," said Cedric, opening up a plastic bag. The rangers were disgusted by the smell rotting out of them. He had black and silver boots with dirt on them, "My lucky boots."

"Cedric," said Grace, coughing as she looked at them, "Those are -."

"I know, absolutely disgusting," he said, laughing as he went to put them in the bag, "But, it works."

Suddenly, red lights started lighting up the whole entire headquarters with the alarm sounding. The door opened up as Max and Jack appeared out of the elevator. The rangers stood up as the alarm continued to blare from all sides of the main room.

"Hey," said Jack, "Your research will have to wait."

"What's up?" asked Cedric.

"It seems your cruise ship landed on Vegas Island. The island known for good luck," said Max, "Until…"

"Until?" asked Rachel.

"A blue energy field surrounded the island. A lot of chaos is happening," said Max, "Luckily, we were able to find the source!"

Jack walked over toward one of the screens and pressed a button. The rangers turned around as they saw the island. A blue sky scraper was shown with an energy beam surrounding it. Zooming in, the rangers saw familiar faces.

"Team Magma is having a lot of fun," said Lamar, "I guess we should go crash their party?"

"We need to get that board back and reverse everything," said Grace.

"We also need to get Seb," said Rachel, raising an eyebrow, "Hopefully, he didn't step foot on the island."


Meanwhile…

Seb tripped and fell as explosions surrounded him. Turning around, he looked around as he noticed some people screaming. Looking up, he saw a red crane explode on top of a building. Seb yelled as he saw the crane head straight toward him. Immediately, he reached for his Relic Detector. As the crane crashed on the concrete, a red aura surrounded him as he transformed into his suit. Posing, he turned around as he slipped on a banana peel. Landing on the ground, he took a deep breath, looking around his surroundings. As he turned right, he was tackled by a white 18-wheeler. Flying through, he crashed on concrete. Getting up, he started rubbing his head on the pavement.

"This was fun," said Seb, looking up, "Not really."

He then turned around as he heard a flutter of footsteps. Courtney and Tabitha were landing on the ground as Charchance and the Magma Grunts were with them. As they were running away, an explosion appeared near Seb. Seb turned around as the building began to collapse. Quickly, he started running away.

"So, Team Magma is definitely behind this chaos!" Seb muttered, tripping and falling on debris.


Meanwhile…

"It seems things have gotten worse," said Urara, looking at her laptop. She turned around as she looked at the team, "An explosion occurred on Vegas Island."

"It also looks like there has been more explosions on Vegas Island," said Amy, "All occurring consecutively. Hypothesis?"

Ray, who usually sat behind the zords, turned to Amy, "Well, do we know the process? They aren't one to bomb a building with a device."

"No…," said Amy, looking at the group, "From what I see, it looks like, they are digging holes, using the Board of Chance… causing implosions as well… it's a mix."

"They might be altering ways to use the board," said Cedric, "Especially if they are causing explosions and implosions by digging."

Zander looked up as he turned to the others, "Well… what if they were creating pulses from those explosions?"

"Pulses?" Grace asked, "I don't get you."

Zander turned around as he looked at the team, "It's quite simple. Team Magma uses a lot of magma energy… they use the ground as a means to fight, right? Well, what if they were exploding buildings to create a pulse underground and using the Board of Chance? Here's an example."

Zander got up from the chair as he pressed a few things on the screen. The rangers watched as a map of the island appeared. They noticed ten buildings with Red X's on them.

"These are the buildings that were affected…," said Zander, "Now, watch."

Pressing the button, the rangers stood in surprise as they noticed four red pathways. The rangers looked confused as Zander continued to explain, "So, the Board of Chance can be used in other ways than just directional. The Board of Chance can be used with other elements… he used wind direction to give Seb bad luck as a test. But, now that we are seeing this, they are going to use the directions based off of the underground. According to research, when the Kantonians were using it. The reason why it was banned was because a certain person was looking to create a place called the Dragon Den."

"But, the Dragon's Den is in Johto," said Ray.

"Not that one," said Zander, "The Dragon Den was to revive cursed dragons and fire type Pokémon that were part of the 10,000 year war with Mariah."

"You mean to tell me," said Jack, "They are going to revive ancient beasts and use them for Team Magma's armament?"

"Yes, sir… and here's how they will do it," said Zander, "Look at those X's."

The rangers turned around as they saw the screen. They noticed there were 2 X's on the left with a red line, 2 X's next to it on another parallel line and so on. Zander pressed a button as he saw the red lines combine at one point, a green aura appeared above it.

"They altered the Earth Pulse underneath with that board and because of that… they will be ready to revive them," said Zander.

"This could be problematic. You know what to do," said Jack.

"Don't worry," said Rachel, "It's understood. We will also get Seb as well. We're going to need him. Rangers, let's move!"


Meanwhile…

North of Vegas Island stood a desolate area, covered in grassland and desert. Maxie stood there as he looked at Charchance, who has the Board of Chance.

"Are you sure about this?" asked Maxie.

"Yes. I blew up 10 buildings and the pulse and current of the plate tectonics make this work," said Charchance, "I am ready."

"Good," said Maxie, "We need to revive the Ancient Dragon: Ryuketzu and its troops to power up Team Magma!"

Meanwhile…

Seb struggled along the outside edge of the city. He was carrying a wooden stick as he was stumbling back and forth. He took a deep breath as he fell to the ground. Laying on the ground, he looked stumbled as he was looking at the sky. He sighed as he turned around, "This is going to be fun!"

"JOLT!"

Seb looked up as he noticed a Jolteon dashing toward him. Jolteon leaped forward as it landed on him.

"Jolteon?" asked Seb, rolling his eyes. He laid his head on the pavement. However, the other rangers were dashing toward him.

"Jolt, give him a little shock… he needs to be alive," said Grace.

"JOLT!"

Immediately, a yellow discharge emerged out of Jolteon, shocking Seb as he landed on the ground. Looking up, the rangers arrived as Jolteon got off his back. The rangers looked at him as Zander brought a bag.

"What are you doing?" asked Seb.

"It's time we fend off your bad luck," said Grace.

"Why?" asked Seb.

"Simple," said Rachel, looking at Seb, "The only way to defeat Charchance is with good luck. Right now, you need all the luck!"

"And we don't have time to accept no for an answer," said Lamar, looking at Seb, "Right now, Charchance is in the process of reviving Ryuketsu."

"Ryuketsu? He's half Charizard X and Y!" shouted Seb.

"Exactly…" said Cedric, "We need you man."

"Well," said Seb, looking at them, "What do you have in mind?"

Immediately, the rangers nodded as they put their belongings from Zander's bag on Seb. Seb turned around as he looked. He was wearing the blue hat on his head, a yellow and black scarf with an emerald tux. He also wore a red black necklace with Cedric's dirty boots. He turned around as he looked at them.

"This?" asked Seb.

"It's our good luck charms. We hope you can use them," said Cedric.

"Well, I am not a man of fortune… but if this is going to work," said Seb.

"It will," said Grace, grinning, kissing him, "I believe so."

Seb nodded as he turned around, looking at the team, "Then, let's stop Charchance."

The rangers nodded as they started following the direction to where Team Magma was located.


Ten minutes later…

The rangers were dashing across the fields as they were going up the rocky mountains. As they arrived at the top of the mountain, the rangers squatted down to watch what was going on. Team Magma was standing in a circle with Charchance, performing a ritual.

"There we go," said Grace, turning around.

"Yep," said Cedric, looking at them, "We need to attack now."

"Perfect," said Zander.

"I'm ready," said Lamar.

"Let's go!" Rachel added.

"Right!" said Seb.

As he went to walk, he tripped on the ground as he started going down the hill. The rangers watched as Seb landed on the ground, causing a disturbance. Looking up, a few Magma Grunts went to strike. Seb kicked two of them in the stomach and then landed on the ground. He turned around as he used a sidekick and then another sidekick at another creature. He then flipped backwards as he did a split kick, knocking two of them. As more showed up, Grace and the others arrived, ready to strike. As they knocked the Magma Grunts out, the rangers turned around as they noticed Charchance.

"What are you doing here?" asked Charchance.

Maxie started laughing, "So, what are those good luck charms? You look hideous!"

"You would be quite surprised," said Seb, turning to the rangers, "Let's go!"

As the rangers retrieved their Relic Detectors, the rangers placed their Relic Detectors to transform.

"Relic Hunters, Start Up!"

Transforming into their suits, the rangers stood in a line to do their roll call.

"The fast adventurer, Relic Hunter Black!"

"The deep adventurer, Relic Hunter Blue!"

"The strong adventurer, Relic Hunter Yellow!"

"The mindful adventurer, Relic Hunter Pink!"

"The dazzling adventurer, Relic Hunter Silver!"

"The lucky fiery adventurer, Relic Hunter Red!"

"Let the adventure begin! Poké Rangers Relic Hunters!"

Charchance and Maxie started laughing as the others started laughing. Charchance turned around as he looked at him, "I can't take you seriously… but here's a gift!"

He used the Board of Chance in the sky. Black clouds formed as blue beams struck. The rangers ducked the attack as Seb was hit. A blue and green pulse surrounded him as Seb started running across. The other rangers chased behind as they were attacked by lightning.

"I won't stand for this," said Charchance, "Magma Grunts, kill them!"

As the Magma Grunts withdrew their sabers, Rachel turned to the others, "Guys, handle the grunts!"

"I'll handle Charchance," said Seb.

The rangers nodded as they split up, dealing with the Magma Grunts. Grace and Lamar landed on the ground as they kicked the Magma Grunts in the stomach. As a few of them went to release flames from their mouths, Lamar's suit began to glow blue as he placed his hand on the floor. A wall of water emerged as the Magma Grunts were drenched. Next, Grace took out her Psychic Cutters, releasing yellow sparks.

"Electro Cutter!"

"Shadow Jet!"

Both attacks hit the grunts as they were hit in response. The two rangers landed on the ground with ease.

Next, Rachel and Zander dashed through as they fought another wave of Magma Grunts. Rachel sped ahead of Zander as Zander jumped up in the air. Flipping forward, a green aura surrounded him as he clenched his fist. Slamming his fist into the ground, vines and roots emerged grabbing the Magma Grunts. Immediately, Rachel placed her Hunter Saber in the ground. Red energy emerged as flames emerged, burning them from the vines. However, as they burnt, Zander released his Swamp Blaster.

"Hydro Pump!"

Drenched, the Magma Grunts scrambled as Rachel took out her Thunder Scooper.

"Thunder Slash!"

Yellow lightning struck as the grunts were hit by the attack. Explosions surrounded them. Meanwhile, Cedric kept dashing toward the group. He dove to the dirt immediately, transforming into a black shadow. Sneaking behind them, the group looked confused as he took out his Mega Sniper.

"Flash Cannon!"

A silver beam shot out as the Magma Grunts burned up from the blast. Placing the blaster back, he turned around as he noticed Seb fighting the beast.

Charchance released a teal flame, however, Seb was unaffected by the attack. He turned around as he released his Relic Blaster, shooting him down. Charchance took the Board of Chance as he began to raise it to the sky. Green and orange aura surrounded Charchance as he struck the board in front of him.

"Feel… my… POWER!"

A golden beam of energy struck out as his eyes began to glow in a golden aura. Seb blocked it with his saber as he blocked it with his saber. As his saber began to glow, a golden aura surrounded Seb as he released the energy back. A golden wave of energy caused the Board of Chance to fly out of his hands. Before Charchance could grab it, Grace grabbed the board. Charchance turned around as Seb began to glow in a golden aura. He held the Blaze Lance as he dashed toward him.

"Blaze Lance… Solar Flame Blitz!"

Striking Charchance, Charchance screamed as Seb landed in front of him. Explosions surrounded Charchance as he exploded, causing a mega earthquake in the process. The other rangers gathered toward Seb as Grace looked at the board.

"Alright, based off of the seismic waves," said Grace, rubbing the crystal. Zander turned around as he touched the compass. A blue aura surrounded it as Grace held it in front of Seb. A flash of energy surrounded him as all of the negative energy disappeared.

"Am I-?" asked Seb.

"Cured? Yes," said Grace.

"Great job!" said Seb, grinning.

Suddenly, Maxie turned around as he looked at them. He then took out his red saber. Crimson energy struck into the sky and then on Charchance's corpse. Charchance grew mega sized as he headed toward them.

"Let's call all the zords!" said Zander.

"Wait," said Seb, "I have an idea. Not yet."

He reached for his Relic Detector, "Send Relic Hunter Zords 1 through 5 and 11 through 13."

"What?" asked Grace.

"Trust me," said Seb.

Immediately, six Relic Drivers appeared in front of them. The rangers turned around as their zords arrived. The rangers nodded as they all got into their seats.

"Adventure Fusion!" Seb shouted.

Fusion System: Blaziken, Houndoom, Swampert, Manectric and Gallade! Relic Hunter Formation!

He pressed the first five numbers of the morpher and then spun the dial. Immediately, the systems began to haywire as he saw what was going on. 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.

"Relic Hunter Megazord, Assembly Complete!"

"Emergency Adventure Fusion!"

Turning the dial, he heard three different clicks… seeing the numbers 11, 12 and 13 glowing in the center of the device. Pressing the green button, the device lit up.

The Steelix Zord split into three parts, the tail, head and body. The Scizor Zord jumped up as Steelix's head covered the Scizor Zord with the body attached to the Scizor's torso and legs, giving some height. The Metagross Zord attached to the back, with the arms coming up and over the Megazord. A blue helmet appeared on top of the Steelix's head.

"Detector Megazord, assembly complete!"

"Adventure Saber!" shouted Seb.

Immediately, the Relic Scooper and the Relic Axe began to shine in a golden aura, transforming into an emerald saber with golden designs. The Detector Megazord was ready to open fire on the creature. Charchance tapped into the ground as a green aura surrounded him. He screamed as he looked at them with happiness. Immediately, a flash of white energy appeared. The rangers noticed he had black skin armor with blue eyes and red flames on his wings. He roared as blue and red energy shot out, hitting the zords. The rangers held on as he swung his tail, knocking the Megazords down.

Grace turned around as she looked at him, "Dear, now you've done it! Now, we have Ryuketsu combined with Charchance!"

"I know…," said Seb, "Now, we can lure him into the trap."

"Trap?" asked Zander.

"I expected him to summon Ryuketsu. Wasn't expecting him to fuse, but all is well," said Seb, "JT, summon Relic Hunter Zords 6 through 9! Cedric, give me cover fire!"

"Happily!" shouted Cedric, "Iron Claw!"

Slashing the creature, Charchance flew back as he charged through, releasing a stream of flames. Charchance flew backwards. As he then went to strike, the Beedrill Zord grabbed him by his needles and then threw him down. As the creature landed, the Abomasnow Zord smacked him across. The Heracross Zord grabbed him and threw him in the center with the Gyarados Zord. They were in four positions. Heracross was pointed to the south, Gyarados was the west and the Beedrill was to the east. The Abomasnow Zord was in the north.

"Alright," said Lamar, "Auxiliary Zords in position."

"Seismic activity reading normal levels," said Zander.

"Then, according to the location…" said Grace, "The greatest fortune will be coming on our side, which is where the Heracross is."

"Which means… Cedric!"

"Right!" shouted Cedric.

The Detector Megazord headed towards the center, facing the Abomasnow Zord. The Charchance released a red and blue stream of energy. The Abomasnow Zord was hit. However, upon getting hit a block of wood hit Charchance in the face. Stumbling, the Adventure Saber from the Megazord began to glow as it went clockwise.

"Adventure Saber, Compass Strike!"

A red and pink compass appeared as it struck the area. Charchance tried to get out of it as Grace held on to the board, "Now, activating!"

A blue energy beam struck out of the Relic Hunter Megazord and then on Charchance. Charchance screamed as he began to go back into his normal form. Energy split him back and forth as energy exploded. Charchance spun around as he looked around. As his head began to clear, he saw the Super Relic Hunter Megazord head toward him.

"So long, Charchance!" shouted Seb.

"Super Relic Hunter Megazord, Double Devastation!"

The horn of the Heracross Zord materialized into the Gyarados's mouth. The Beedrill began to glow orange as the drill began to spin. Aiming for Charchance, a purple aura surrounded the Heracross Zord as it was released. The horn pierced right through with blue and white energy coming out of it. As the beam pierced through, the Super Relic Hunter Megazord drilled straight through with the stinger. As the Super Relic Hunter Megazord landed on the ground, the creature screamed as he exploded into pieces.

"And that's how it all ends," said Seb, taking a breath.


Forty minutes later…

Maxie was walking down the path as he was looking at the remains. He sighed as he looked at them, noticing the red and orange flames from the wreckage. He then saw a sparkle. He grinned as he walked toward them. A blue and red scale appeared on the ground. He picked them up as he turned to the sky.

"Well, they may have stopped Ryuketsu… and Charchance tried to fuse with it using his luck… which made absolutely no sense on how he did it… but either way, I got some scales to be useful," said Maxie, grinning.

Meanwhile…

Putting the Board of Chance next to the Glass Slippers, the rangers sighed as they were looking at it. Lamar sighed as he pressed the green button, sealing it. They were also looking at the ancient relics they collected as Lamar turned around, "It's a shame that this artifact has a lot more power."

"True," said Grace, looking at her notebook, "But… look at it this way, at least we have another artifact. Great job, Seb!"

"Huh?" asked Seb.

"Yeah," said Grace, "Great job!"

"Well," said Seb, grinning, "The Board of Chance was definitely a fight for sure."

As he placed his hand behind his head, he looked at the group. As he walked back, he noticed a golden aura behind him. Knocking into the glass, he turned around as the Board of Chance began to glow. A black diamond like jewel shot out as it appeared in Seb's hands. The rangers turned around as Seb walked toward the Crown of Weather. Opening the door, the black jewel connected to the crown.

"Wait… that had a jewel in there?" asked Lamar.

"That means," said Grace, looking at Seb, "We need two more!"

"We're getting close to getting our magic back," said Seb, turning to the team, "And… hopefully we will have clues for Jack."

The team nodded as they were mesmerized by the three jewels sparkling around the Crown of Weather. The team knew that they had a mission to complete.


Meanwhile…

Nick, Chloe, Brent and Celia were training together on one of the islands. As they were training, Celia kicked a few hook kicks, knocking a few boards down. Chloe used her arrows, shooting down a few of them. Brent turned around as he broke bricks with his weapons. Finally, Nick came across, cutting and slicing a few boulders with his sabers. As the four stood together, Nick turned around as he looked.

"I am glad to see that we are ready to continue our next plan of attack!" said Nick.

"Excellent," said Chloe, "So, where are going we next?"

"You'll see," said Nick.

"But, what if I told you that you would need a fifth member?"

Nick turned around. He stood in shock as the others turned toward him. The man grinned as he looked at him. He had black and red gloves with a white and red jersey. He had black jeans and brown shoes. He grinned as he had golden eyes with reddish-black hair.

"May I ask who you are?" asked Nick.

"And how do you know about us?" asked Brent.

He laughed as he turned to them, "Guys, my name is… Justen. I am… well…"

He lifted his t-shirt, to reveal a black t-shirt with a red R on it. The rangers turned to him as Justen put his jersey down, "I was one of the late Team Rocket members that survived an attack years ago… and I would like my revenge."

"Who?" asked Chloe.

Justen laughed as he looked at him. He turned around as he took a picture out, "A childhood friend… Urara Nakamura."

The Ranger Slayers looked at him as he showed the picture. Nick turned around, "Urara is not a current ranger."

"She was a ranger," said Brent, "Now, she works with them. What's your beef?"

"I need to finish the job," said Justen, grinning, "And I am going to need your help. That is, if I can join your team."

"What can you provide?" asked Nick, walking closer.

Justen grinned as he gave a blue disk that was in his pocket, "Inside you will find an artifact that could be of use to you."

Lamar: I may have dropped my morpher in the pool.

Ray: Well, that was a dumb thing to do!

Lamar: I know…

Celia: I think its time we have a little fun!

Seb: Where's Lamar?

Nick: What are you doing here?

Lamar: Simple, hand over the armor!

Poké Rangers Relic Hunters Chapter 29: The Armor of Legends

Lamar: I am not going to let you use that armor for evil!


A/N: Ah, so Seb had a little bad luck but he was saved and the good luck charms were helpful to stop Team Magma's plans. Isn't it awesome? Hmm… well, I look forward to your reviews. I can't wait to see what you are thinking or what you were thinking about.

And yeah, I don't think Ryuketsu will be going away. You will have to see what's going on. Alright, I am out of here! PEACE!
