The Neo-Organism appeared on the ship once more as Doras walked into the main computer room once more, growling a bit and breathing heavily as usual, as he walked into the room and stood perfectly still.

"So…There are now three Paxerians on the planet Earth now, aware of our presence, and armed with powerful suits of their own." The Neo Organism simply floated there above the green screen in the middle of the room, any concern he may have had over the situation not showing. "Things are slowly becoming more and more complicated in my goal to consume Professor Mochizuki's suit designs, and gain the power to leave the confines of this mass off technology…" Doras simply stood, watching him blankly as he suddenly heard a voice call out "Are those Paxerians troubling you as well?…"

The Neo-Organism looked over to see a figure in black armor, with a silver chest plate and silver face on the helmet, with reddish stripes on certain spots. "…We can certainly sympathize. We've had our own issues with them." Next to the black armored man was a more feminine looking figure, wearing black and gray armor, with two menacing red eyes on the helmet. Radia, the one that Littlefoot and the others had fought before, was standing to the man's left!

Doras stepped towards the three and growled loudly as The Neo Organism narrowed his eyes suspiciously. "Impactors…" he simply stated, as the lead figure in black simply nodded. "Yes…I can see you're up on your interplanetary lifeforms…my name is Logia…these are my two assistants, Radia, and Lucia." The other two simply nodded in acknowledgement.

The Neo-Organism looked on at the three Impactors. "And what exactly brings you three to this ship?" Logia walked around the room as Lucia responded. "I think it's time we confess something to you…we've been spying on this ship for some time now." The Neo-Organism scoffed at this idea. "That's impossible. If there had been a spy ship around, I would have detected it by now." Logia turned and addressed him. "Well, we know how smart and powerful a computer you were, so we developed a special cloaking device that can take advantage of even your little system's blind-spots."

The Neo-Organism nodded softly. "I see…you Impactors are certainly hard to keep up with technologically, you people seem to innovate round the clock." Radia responded this time. "We simply innovate to survive, and now is an especially important time for survival." The Neo-Organism looked to Radia. "Oh yes…you're referring to your conflict with the Paxerians, the purpose for which I was created."

Logia nodded slowly as he approached the Neo-Organism. "That's correct. And we had been spying on Professor Mochizuki and the work he had been developing through all of that time. We've been especially curious about the lack of activity from the professor, which seems to have been going on for quite some time, ever since that meteor shower long ago. Tell me, what happened to him anyway?" The Neo-Organism responded. "He's dead." Lucia quickly turned. "What? How did this happen?" He replied, "He got in my way." Radia tilted his head a bit. "You killed him?" Doras walked near him and growled as the Neo-Organism turned to Radia again. "You're very perceptive."

Logia walked closer to the Neo Organism. "We've recently discovered the presence of three combat suits, very similar to the ones the Paxerians use to fight us. Am I correct in assuming that this was what the professor was working on?" The Neo-Organism nodded. "Yes. Very powerful designs, so powerful that if I can get my hands on them and consume them, I will be able to leave the confines of this computer, and exercise my true power on the Universe."

Lucia looked to the Neo-Organism as he said this. "Interesting…being the enemies of the Paxerians, we would love nothing but to see these new weapons destroyed. We could assist you on this…" The Neo-Organism looked to her curiously. "You want to help me?" Logia nodded slowly. "We want any other potential enemies eliminated, and you want to get out of that computer…I think we can work together to achieve our goals, that is, if you are willing to accept the help of Impactors."

The Neo-Organism gave Logia a stern look. "I have no loyalty to the Paxerians, nor to anyone else…however, since you offer to assist me in my liberation, I am willing to cooperate with you in any way I see fit." He then turned to his creation "Doras…take these three Impactors through the rest of the ship, see if there's anything aboard that they can utilize."

Doras simply growled softly and led the trio to a doorway, opening it with his palm as Radia and Lucia followed. Logia stayed behind for a moment, and turned to the Neo-Organism. "Thank you…you will not regret this…" The Neo-Organism began to sink back into the screen. "You had just better be able to kill those earth creatures, and bring me those suits…" he warned, as he vanished, leaving Logia as he walked to the doorway to join his companions.

Back in the Valley, Littlefoot was explaining what had just happened to Bron and a few of the other adults, as Ali and Shorty stood near each other, trusting each other a little bit more now. "My goodness" Grandma said from behind Bron. "Ali comes back after all this time, and now we discover she can transform too." Grandpa looked at her a bit strangely though. "But there's something I don't understand. Ali, you live with a wandering herd. Surely they would be looking for you or following you by now. What happened to them?"

Ali looked down a bit, sadly. "Oh…about that…" she sighed a bit, having told Littlefoot earlier "A little while ago, I think just after Littlefoot discovered his powers, my herd was off near the valley. We were deciding if we wanted to go towards the valley and pay a visit, before something came out of nowhere and attacked us…" Littlefoot added, having remembered what the grasshopper told him "It was Doras…the one who first attacked me."

Ali nodded as she continued. "I guess he sensed that my powers were about to awaken, and tried to hunt me down. I hid from him, not knowing what was going on, as he readied that weapon of his on his shoulder and fired at everyone." Everyone, including Cera, Ducky, Spike and Petrie, who were also around, listened in shock as she continued, tearfully "He just kept firing at everyone, until he suddenly stopped, as if sensing something, and flew away…my mother was ok, thank goodness, but a lot of the others…" She seemed on the verge of crying before she steadied herself. "Anyway…once I began to wish that I could do something to protect the herd from this monster, that's when my powers awakened. It took a while to adjust, but I ended up leaving the herd secretly. And I'm not coming back to them until Doras is dead."

Bron, who had just met Ali for the first time, but had heard about her numerous times from Littlefoot recalling past events, leaned down and talked to her. "Hey…I know what you're going through now…you've been hurt, your family's been hurt…but do you really think it's wise to keep them in the dark about all this, to make them worry even more than they have to now that you've disappeared too?" Ali looked down at the ground. "I don't know if they can accept it…what I've become, I mean." Cera smiled as she approached her. "Ali…look at us, look at everyone else…see how well we've taken it?" The others smiled as Littlefoot and Shorty nodded to Ali, who looked up and smiled a bit herself. "I guess you have a point there…"

Littlefoot changed the subject. "Ok, now we need to focus on more important things, like that Radia guy who attacked us." He addressed Shorty and Ali. "We need to find the grasshopper, and ask what he has to do with all this, and what connection he has to those other three guys in armor that came by earlier." He suddenly heard a voice from outside the group say "He's our enemy…"

Everyone turned to See Takumi and Mihara walking towards them. "It's the rainbow-faces." Petrie called out, causing Mihara to look at Takumi funny. "Rainbow faces?…" Takumi chuckled "It's a long story…" Littlefoot chuckled as he addressed his friends. "They're not rainbow-faces, they're called Paxerians."

Takumi tilted his head as he approached Littlefoot. "You know what we really are now?" Littlefoot nodded as Shorty responded "A grasshopper told us about your kind." Mihara scratched his head. "Grasshopper?" Takumi thought this over, having heard about something similar. "The professor must've sent out a data droid." Littlefoot looked at him funny. "A what?" Mihara chuckled and nodded "Oh right, a data droid. That's a little robot that can make itself look like a creature in it's environment to blend in, coming in and giving others information when needed."

Ducky walked in now and looked at the two. "You don't look like the rainbow-faces we saw before…" Takumi chuckled and shook his head. "Nope…I think you saw my mentor, professor Horikuchi, and his wife." Littlefoot walked closer to Takumi. "You know him? How is he?" Takumi smiled "Oh, he's doing just fine. His son just made it to a prestigious school recently, so he's been very happy about that." Littlefoot chuckled, not really understanding what he was saying. "Ok then."

Takumi smiled lightly "Oh, wait, where are my manners. My name's Takumi, and this is my partner and friend, Mihara." Littlefoot nodded. "Hello" Mihara smiled a bit "Hi." Shorty then looked and saw the cases that Mihara was carrying, seeing the Delta symbol on one and remembering…

"Wait a minute…" he walked to Mihara. "It was you wasn't it?…the one who attacked me earlier!" The others looked straight at Mihara as he backed off a bit, not seeing any point in hiding it. "Well, what was I supposed to do? You were charging right towards me!" Ali rushed in "Calm down you two, it was all part of a big misunderstanding." She looked at Shorty "C'mon, I've forgiven you for attacking me…can't you forgive Mihara too?" Shorty backed off, remembering what would happen if he got too angry. "Ok…sorry about that."

Takumi then walked to Mihara and took the cases. "Now that we've calmed down, I can explain some things to you…we're from a special agency on Paxeria, and we were sent out to this area…travel here is extremely restricted by intergalactic law, but this is a special case, since professor Mochizuki's been gone for such a long time." Littlefoot nodded "I can tell you…he's dead…" Mihara gasped. "What?…" Littlefoot sighed. "Just listen. I can tell you what the "data droid" told me.."

Takumi and Mihara sat and listened closely as he explained everything to them, the professor's experiments, the revolt of the computer, now calling itself the Neo-Organism, and his death at the hands of Doras after sending the suit designs into the meteor shower.

"Oh, man" Mihara said to Takumi. "This is more serious than we thought." Ali looked to the cases. "What I don't understand is, how are you two able to transform like we can?" Takumi took the case the Faiz gear and opened it. "Well that's easy to explain…after the prof Mochizuki had been gone for such a long time, his assistant, Professor Murakami, decided to pick up where he left off, and designed three prototype "rider" belts as they're called. They give us the ability to transform into warriors like you three are." He showed them his belt. "This is the "Faiz gear", and Mihara's been using the "Delta gear" Mihara nodded lightly as Shorty looked confused. "You said there were three…what happened to the third?…"

Takumi put the belt away. "Well, about that…there were some flaws in the prototypes as it turns out…only one of the belts worked with everyone the professor tried it on, and that was the Delta gear…for the Faiz gear it wasn't so easy…you see, the Faiz gear requires a certain genetic code compatibility…in other words, you have to have the right body type, or else the belt won't transform you, it will reject you. I was the one of the only ones it would work with…now, the Faiz gear would simply reject you, because it has a restrictive T-126 mechanism in the device, that's the part that shoots out these photon streams that create the armor…the Kaixa gear on the other hand…"

"What?…what happened with that one?" Littlefoot asked, even more curious.

Takumi sighed as he went back to some painful memories. "The Kaixa gear used a much less stable T-135 mechanism…the same restrictions applied, but with far more dire consequences…anyone not of the right body type for the Kaixa gear will die after using it once, their body will turn to dust basically. I know because another partner of mine, Nishida, tried it, and that's what happened" Ali jaw-dropped as Shorty asked "Well…did you ever find someone who could use it?"

Mihara jumped into the conversation. "We did…his name was Kusaka…real loose cannon…he broke into the lab and stole the belt while we were fighting someone spying for the impactors…luckily at the time, he was the right body type for it, and came in to help us. But, instead of helping us capture the spy, he killed him. He was severely reprimanded for this action, and the agency threatened to kick him out. He defended his actions as usual…see, he lost his family to an Impactor attack when he was younger, and he's had a grudge against them ever since. After that confrontation, Kusaka stole the belt, and flew away on a ship he had rented. We haven't seen him or the Kaixa gear since then."

Ali thought to herself as she heard this. "Kaixa?…wait, a minute…that guy who came here earlier…" Takumi quickly looked at her. "What guy?" Littlefoot jumped in "He was wearing armor like yours…and Radia called him Kaixa…" Mihara looked alarmed. "Silver and black armor with yellow stripes? Was this what he had on?" Littlefoot nodded as Takumi looked back at Mihara. "It's definitely Kusaka then…" Mihara looked puzzled. "But what's he doing here? There's no good reason for him to come." Takumi thought for a moment. "Well, we know that Radia's here. Maybe Kusaka was tailing him without him knowing." Shorty looked up curiously. "Why would he want to follow him?" Takumi turned to him and responded. "Well, remember the attack we told you about, where Kusaka's family was killed? Well, it was Radia's unit that did it." Shorty nodded as Mihara looked even more concerned. "Do you think Radia's the only Impactor who knows about all this?" Takumi sighed and shook his head. "I sure hope so…"

His hopes were quickly crushed however, when three figures suddenly appeared in the valley. It was Impactors Lucia and Radia, walking with Doras! Everyone stepped back in horror as Mihara looked on. "Oh great…Now there's two Impactors…and they're working with that Doras thing." Takmui looked straight on at them. "They must have cut a deal with the computer." He addressed them. "What do you two want? Why are you working with that creature?" Lucia scoffed at him. "All you need to know, Paxerian, is that we're going to have to kill your new friends." Radia nodded. "Yes…there's business to be taken care of…we can't sit back and let you launch what very well may be a new threat to our existence as Impactors."

Cera, Spike, and the others, stood around Littlefoot, instinctively protecting him and Ali and Shorty, before Littlefoot gently nudged them out of the way, looking straight at them. "You want to kill us?…" his Agito belt quickly appeared on his body as he displayed confidence and bravery beyond his own expectations. "Go ahead and try…henshin!" he put his foot down as the noise came from the belt once more, walking forward and transforming into Agito. Shorty came out next, scowling "This longneck's not going down without a fight either…henshin!" The star shaped buckle appeared on his belt as his body glowed and changed, becoming Gillis. Ali then stepped out as a silver belt buckle appeared on her, with a red middle, as a strap grew from both sides and attached itself to her. "It's time to pay for your crimes Doras…henshin!" A voice called out "CHANGING.." from her belt as black energy rained down on her quickly, transforming her into Chalice as the others watched.

Agito and Gillis charged at Radia and Lucia, as Chalice headed straight for Doras. Lucia ducked a kick from Agtio and countered with some of her own, very swift and accurate with her attacks as Gillis ducked Radia's axe swings, extending his claws and slashing at him, while Doras growled and swiped at Chalice, who dodged and swung with the bladed tips of her bow.

As this was happening, Takumi and Mihara quickly got out their belts, Takumi slapping on the Faiz gear, as Mihara attached the Delta gear. They each punched in the codes on their "henshin" devices "555" and "333" as both of them said "STANDING BY…" they each said "Henshin!" and attached the devices to their belts, both saying "COMPLETE" as Takumi became Faiz, and Mihara became Delta.

They slowly walked, and then charged right towards the fight, ready to join their new allies as Faiz removed his a pistol from his belt, and Delta took out his gun, firing! The shots hit Radia and Lucia as they fell back, Radia readying his axe as Lucia took out a crescent-shaped sword with a handle in the middle of the blade. Delta joined Gillis as the two double kicked Radia, forcing him to block with his axe, as Faiz joined Agito and dodged the swinging of Lucia's blade, as Agito quickly changed to his blue "Typhoon" form, taking out his double-bladed staff and swinging it at her, clashing with her sword.

Chalice ran towards Doras, who dodged the energy arrows she continued to launch, as Gillis left Radia to Delta, running to help her out as he extended a coil from his arm, wrapping it around Doras as he growled and struggled. Gillis growled too, keeping him in place as Chalice launched a cluster of energy arrows, all hitting Doras in the chest. Doras roared in anger and grabbed the coil holding him, throwing Gillis as he broke free of it. As he was doing this, he didn't notice Chalice with her hand pulled back, charging up a big arrow, before she shot it and hit him in the chest with it, making Doras' upper body explode! Chalice fell back as she saw the green goop that remained from his upper body suddenly moving back towards the rest of him, realizing that she hadn't killed him even with this. She grunted with frustration, but then saw Agito and Faiz struggling with Lucia, as Gillis got back to his feet, and rejoined Delta in fighting Radia.

Chalice shrugged and ran towards Lucia, striking her from behind with some arrows as she grunted and fell forward, allowing Agito to strike her with his weapon, as Faiz shot her a few times with his pistol. Doras soon reconstructed himself after this happened, and instead of helping the two impactors, quickly reverted to his spherical form and flew away. "Where does he think he's going?" Radia shouted, dodging blasts from Delta's gun as Gillis leapt onto him, roaring, and bit him on the shoulder armor! "Ahhhh! Get off me you fiend!" Radia yelled, as Delta got him with some well placed blasts to the stomach. Radia threw Gillis off as he stepped back and readied his axe, not aware of figure in the distance.

The figure turned out to be that of a Paxerian, wearing an agency uniform made to fit his body, and had an intense look on his face…it was Kusaka! He watched the fighting go on as he reached into a case, and pulled out the Kaixa gear. He attached it to his body, got out his cell-phone like device, and punched in the code: 913. A much darker and threatening distorted voice called out "STANDING BY..." as Kusaka raised the phone to his mouth and said "Henshin!" before placing it into his belt. "COMPLETE..." Yellow photon streams shot out, wrapping around him and changing him into Kaixa once more.

Radia was busy fighting with Gillis and Delta, before he suddenly saw Kaixa now running towards him, firing his blaygun! The rapid fire yellow bullets struck him hard, as Gillis and Delta moved back from this. Kaixa quickly extended the blade on his weapon, and charged in to strike Radia a few times, as Lucia was too busy fighting Agito, Faiz AND Chalice to help. Kaixa took the charger off the front of his belt and attached it to his blaygun as the voice said "Ready.." Radia got back to his feet as Kaixa said. "Radia…I've waited a long time for this…it's time for you for you to reap what you sowed all those years ago." Radia grunted "Come and get me, you troublesome runt! Come and get me!" Kaixa yelled out in rage as he ran in and slashed Radia "That was for my Mother!" he blasted him with the gun section. "That was for my father!" He gave Radia another slash across the hemlet. "That was for my sister!" he then flipped open the device on his belt. "And this is for all the Paxerians who died under your axe!" he pressed the enter button as the voice said "EXCEED CHARGE..." He then raised his blaygun, before running towards Radia, who tried to block with his axe, before Kaixa suddenly slid on his feet, with the blade extended, quickly slicing through Radia as he stopped sliding behind him, his blade glowing…Everyone suddenly stopped and watched as Radia succumbed to the energy, crying out one last time in pain as a yellow X, the Kaixa symbol, appeared over him and flashed, collapsing and crumbling into dust as he was now dead!

Lucia broke away from the others as she stared on sadly…"Radia…" she simply said, before retreating, unsure of how Logia was going to take this…Kaixa simply stood there as the others watched him, gathering into a single group.

"Kusaka?" Faiz simply asked, as Kaixa slowly removed the device from his belt, holding it and pressing the "cancel" button, as the photon streams retracted, changing him back and revealing that he was in fact Kusaka.

The others shifted back as well, as Takumi approached Kusaka. "What are you doing here, Kusaka?" Kusaka looked at him coldly. "I had some unfinished business with Radia, you should know that. And now that he's gone, there's one more issue that needs resolving…"

Takumi narrowed his eyes. "And what would that be."

Kusaka sneered at him some. "These animals that you're trying to protect…"
