A/N: Chapter 6 is here. There were many ways I thought of to make this chapter. I liked my ideas and I hope you like what's about to come up. Thank you for your continued support and I hope you keep reading in the future. Something else I wanted to share is something I should have shared in the first chapter, Saul is pronounced as Saúl. Now, without further ado, let's get into the chapter.
(Disclaimer: I don't own Power Rangers, it is owned by Hasbro. I only take credit for my own ideas and characters.)
Chapter 6: Psycho
Byxis walked through the corridors of the base. He was lost in his thoughts as he walked. Thunder boomed outside. The rain hit the base and could be heard through the whole base. Byxis entered his lab in haste. In his lab, there were five tables lined up next to eachother. Something was on top of each table, covered by a cover sheet. Byxis walked over to his computer. In front of where the tables were, was a strange container holding a bright object. The Infinity Star. He felt nervous as he typed in the computer. He looked out the only pair of windows near the ceiling in his lab.
He felt a strange presence. Byxis turned to the door as lightning flashed. At the doorway was Axis. Axis walked across the room over to the tables. He pushed a button on the table in the middle which caused all the other tables to move. They were now tilted.
"Are they ready?" Axis said as he studied the tables.
"Yes. And he is also ready. Come in!" Byxis called out.
Axis turned around to see a monster enter the room. The monster had knives coming from its arms. It's body was black with green markings. The markings seemed to indicate how many kills he had gotten. His face looked like the face of a devil. He had little horns coming out the top of his head. He had a green symbol in the middle of his chest. It seemed to represent the weapons of a killer. In his hand, he held what seemed to be a mask. The mask looked like a bat or something similar to that.
"There he is master Axis. A monster capable of killing anything. A monster capable of making anyone go," Byxis paused, "Psycho."
"And you say he has the soul of every killer known to man. Known to the universe?" Axis studied the big monster who seemed to be breathing heavily.
"Yes. And with the help of these revived individuals, he will achieve his plans." Byxis said. Lightning flashed again and the thunder rumbled overhead. The rain only got harder.
"Good. My plan needs to work. I will make killers out of people and make sure to turn them against their kind. And when they have no where to turn to, they will follow me. They will become my followers." Axis explained to his scientist.
"Shall we begin master?" Byxis asked the boss.
"If the Infinity Star is ready to proceed, then by all means. Begin the process." Axis commanded.
"Master?!" Zaku came into the room.
"What is it?" Axis asked the big dog monster.
"What are you doing? How come I wasn't informed of this?" Zaku asked.
"Because this is my personal plan. This plan requires the Infinity Star and I don't need you. With this monster here, the star and these individuals, I will create a world crisis. Then I will offer a solution. A way to make people turn back to normal. Unfortunately for them, this way will guarantee that I became a figure for everyone to look up to. A dangerous figure that is. They will never know that. That's what makes a truly evil plan." Axis smiled evilly as he finished explaining his plan to his right hand man.
"Will I be a part of this plan?" Zaku asked his master.
"I'm putting you on the sidelines. You've disappointed me enough. Until further notice, you are to stay here." Axis said in a low cold voice.
"But master!" Zaku was hit in the face.
"I have spoken. You will listen unless you want to die." Axis' cold voice made the dog shiver.
"Yes master." Zaku got to one knee and bowed his head.
"Byxis! Proceed!" Axis yelled as the thunder rumbled again.
"Yes sir. Beginning procedure now. Powering up Infinity Star." Byxis said as he pushed a lever up. The tables were back in their normal positions. The ceiling opened and the tables began to rise. The star began to glow brighter as it also rose into the sky.
When they got to the top, the tables awaited. After a minute, lighting came down and struck all five tables. The star glowed brightly as it burned intensely. Byxis quickly brought the tables back down and closed the roof. The star began to return to normal, glowing like it was when it was resting. Byxis hurried over to the tables and began taking off the cover sheets that lay on top of the tables. Figures of people could be seen. Axis stood back as the figures stood up. Byxis hurried over to where Axis and Zaku stood.
"Where are we?" The figure in the middle said with a sort of echo to his voice.
"Welcome to my base of operations. I have brought you back to life. You will help me destroy the Power Rangers." Axis smiled deviously.
"Are you sure we can trust them?" Zaku asked.
"Are you in?" Axis ignored Zaku and asked the question to the individuals. The individuals seemed hesitant.
"Did you say that we can destroy the Power Rangers?" The figure in the middle asked.
"Why of course. They are a powerful force that needs to be destroyed. And I hear that the Power Rangers are your enemies. So, do we have partnership or what?" Axis finished with the question.
The lightning flashed again. This time, the figures were revealed. They all looked the same just with different colors in their patterns. They had metal button like objects on their shoulders and stomachs. They also had those same metal like buttons on their hands. They had white collars on their boots, and white objects on their wrists. They had helmets on that looked like bats. Each of them had a different color. They had a silver mouthpiece with what looked like black teeth over the mouthpiece. They had a belt buckle with a twisted N on them.
"If it means destroying the Power Rangers, then count us in." The figures said with his echoed voice, clenching his fist as he said this.
"Excellent. We shall get started soon." Axis smiled deviously.

~Two years ago~
Saul walked behind Kite, both of them carrying backpacks. They had left the jungle that was know as Beast Jungle, the biggest jungle on the planet. They had crossed over into Mexico. The truth was that Beast City was built on the border between the US and Mexico. No one knows why. Not even Kai knew why.
"We are here." Kai said as they approached a railroad track.
"Where are we going." Saul asked.
"We are going to Guadalajara. The hometown of your favorite soccer team." Kai said as he looked around, covering his eyes from the sun.
"How did you know that? Why do you know all these things about me?" Saul asked.
"The Beastial. The tiger tells me everything." Kai said as he got down to touch the rail. It was hot but he was waiting to feel something else.
"Ok, that aside, why are we going to Guadalajara?" Saul asked.
"We are looking to catch a plane." Kai continued looking down the railroad.
"Why do we need to catch a plane from Guadalajara?" Saul went up to him.
"Because flights from Mexico City are more expensive and going to Tijuana seems too easy." Kai told him.
"Are you serious?" Saul looked at Kai and saw that the man wasn't joking.
"I chose that place because it's less likely for you to be noticed by anyone you know." Kai began walking down the railway. Saul followed behind him.
"Ok so why do we need to catch a flight?" Saul continued his interrogation.
"We are going to Japan." Kai sighed as he took out a bottle of water from his backpack.
"Why are we going to Japan?" Saul began to get annoyed by his own questions.
"So many questions huh? We are going to Japan to help you train. You can improve your sword skills there. Especially without being disturbed." Kai told him as he got down again, feeling the rail.
"Japan? I mean it's sounds cool but there are obvious questions. Like where am I going to live? How am I going to make money? Other questions that I can't think of right now." Saul seemed so surprised by where he was going.
"Those questions will be answered as soon as we get on the train." Kai said.
"Train?" Saul's confusion skyrocketed. Then he heard a horn. He looked around Kai and saw a train coming.
"Jump on the last cart. It should be at least 2 days til we make it to Guadalajara." Kai said as he stood aside of the rail.
"We are taking the train?" Saul asked. The train got closer and louder.
"Yes, now get ready!" Kai yelled as the train passed in front of them. Sauls face went pale. Kai shook Saul out of it and motioned for him to follow. Saul nodded and they both ran down to the end of the train. On the run, Saul turned to see people on top of the trains.
When they got to the end, Kai jumped onto one of the ladders and began climbing. Saul took a deep breath. Fear was beginning to eat him. He found the guts in the end and he jumped onto the ladder with his eyes closed. When he opened his eyes, he saw that he made it without being torn apart by the train. Saul began climbing immediately. When he got to the roof, he saw Kai jump into the train through a hole.
"This guys crazy." Saul said to himself. He turned around to see people on top of other carts. He then saw people jump off the train.
He proceeded to sit down and catch his breath. He turned over again and saw a man with who Saul assumed were the mans wife and son. The man grabbed his wife by the arm and they both held their child. Saul began to think about what they were about to do and he was stricken with fear. He saw them and wanted to tell them to stop, but something kept his mouth shut. His eyes widened as he saw them take the leap. Time stopped for Saul as he saw them jump off the train. Then, time went back to normal as the people landed. The man hugged both of them.
The train passed and Saul looked at the family, fear fading. He knew that it wasn't him taking the jump but he felt what these people were feeling. After a couple more minutes, he saw more and more people jump off. Many families were together as they jumped. The train kept going and didn't stop. Then, one pour soul down the road failed to make the jump perfectly. He was crushed by the train. Saul could only assume that the man was alone because no one seemed to care so much but still showed remorse.
"El Tren de la Muerte." Saul whispered to himself. He now remembered what this train was called. "The Train of Death." Saul whispered in English. He climbed onto the top of the train and jumped into the hole that Lai had gone through.
"El Tren de la Muerte." Kai said with an American-like accent.
"Don't say it. You say it like an American." Saul chuckled.
"Would you believe me if I said I was Mexican." Kai said as he smiled.
"I would say that you are out of your mind. And that's coming from a real Mexican." Saul sat down and put his head against the wall.
"Well, that aside, it's explanation time. We are going to stay in Guadalajara for about a week. Then we leave via airport and make our way to Japan. We'll be staying there a couple of months. The reason why? It's one of the best places on the planet to train. Especially since you will be using a katana blade." Kai pulled a book from his backpack and opened it.
"How about you answer the obvious questions I mentioned." Saul said as he took a sip of water.
"As for where we are staying in the city, we are staying in a house I bought." Kai flipped through pages.
"How can you buy a house if you are just a spirit?" Saul asked.
"Because I'm the only master who still has power over a physical body. The others can use the bodies they once had but only for a limited time. And I haven't seen them for a while so we haven't actually tested that out. I can stay and go as I please. I wasn't completely destroyed by Axis like the others. I died naturally." Kai had a frown as he remembered what had happened the first time he faced Axis.
"Sorry." Saul apologized. Kai stayed quiet for a while longer.
"Anyways, in Japan, you are going to be living like a rich man in Tokyo. I was a rich man when I was alive back then, but that's a story for another time. In your free time you will train in the forest near Tokyo." Kai scanned a page and showed it to Saul. Saul took the book and looked at it.
"So I'm training in Japan?" Saul asked the obvious question.
"Yes. And as for your money, you will have a job." Kai smiled as he awaited a response.
"What?!" Saul yelled.
"You will be working at a music company. You do know how to play the guitar after all." Kai took the book back.
"So I'm working for a Japanese music company." Kai put the book away and yawned. It was midday but he was tired.
"It's not Japanese. You are just working in their Japanese office. I think you may know what company it is. Would it help if I said they were from Korea?" Kai leaned back and closed his eyes.
"Kai! Are you kidding me!" Saul yelled out. Kai had already started snoring. "Kai! Kai! Kai!"

Mikey and Anthony walked through the spectrum, following the girls as they looked around. Cynthia would make them all stop at every store that peaked her interest. They didn't want to do it but they realized that they wanted new clothes. So they just went along.
After a while, they had tons of bags and walked to Mikey's car. His skyline wasn't a typical skyline. It was given to him by someone who found something of interest in Mikey and his skills. Most people looked and talked about how he could get a car like that in the states. The truth was, Beast City was like it's own little country.
They dropped off all their things at their own homes and they all decided to meet at the base. When they got there, Mick was up to some very interesting work. He was working on his computer and was working with the Beast Batteries.
"Hey Mick." Cynthia announced their arrival.
"Oh, hey guys." Mick waved at the group.
"Whatcha doing there buddy?" Mikey asked the mechanic.
"Oh, the red ranger is helping me test out different Beast Batteries. The ones that I'm making and the ones that we have." Mick explained as he held a Beast Battery.
"You mean, there are Beast Batteries that we don't have?" Alicia asked out of curiosity.
"Yes. Some are found with new Zords and some are just found, hidden on the earth. Most likely they were hidden by the masters a long time ago." Mick sat down and continued typing.
"So these batteries have abilities?" Mikey asked as he saw Anthony play with his fingers.
"Yes. Just like the Tiger Battery has the power of fire and the Shark Battery has the power of water." Mick confirmed what Mikey had asked.
"So Red is just fighting robots or something?" Anthony spoke for the first time since entering the base.
"Yup, just take a look." Mick pushed a button on his console and a screen poped in the middle of the table for everyone to see.
Red was in the training room, currently set to look like the city plaza. Red slashed the robot monsters with his sword. He was currently using the Bull Beast Battery and was sending the monsters flying. The last monster he sent flying blew up and the training simulation was over. A virtual 3D sign appeared in the room, announcing that the training was over. The room returned to its blank white state and Red walked out of the room.
"That was a great run. You beat your time again." Mick said to Red as he walked out.
"I always try my best." Red said as he passed by the others and entered through the doors that lead to the Rangers rooms. Currently, Red was the only resident.
"So, are the batteries able to be used by our own weapons?" Mikey asked as he walked to the monitors.
"I'm still working on it. So far, it only seems that the systems that the Red Ranger has access to are the only ones that can use other batteries. I've tried the Bull Axe but it almost fried me." Mick said, recalling the events where the axe sparked.
"That sucks." Alicia said with a sad expression.
"Ok Mick, I'm ready to go for the next tests." Red said as he walked back into the room.
"Ok. The axe is ready." Mick told him as Red walked back into the training room.
"He's using my axe." Anthony looked up at the screen. His axe was wedged into the ground. Red walked in and picked it up.
"Trading Simulation Starting." A computer system activated and he was back in the plaza with more robots. When "Start" appeared in the middle of the room, Red ran straight towards the monsters, moving the axe swiftly. He hit each one of his targets. He then turned around and he brought the axe up and then back down to the ground. He created a crack in the ground and all the monsters fell backwards. They blew up.
"He's good." Cynthia had her cheek in her hand.
"I guess." Mikey crossed his arms.
"Red, you did perfectly." Mick said as he typed on his computer. Red walked back out into the command center.
"Any idea when Kai is coming back?" Mikey asked the red ranger.
After staring at him he finally said, "No."
"I'm here." Kai appeared from a ball of flames.
"Great to see you. I wanted to ask you something. Anthony, the girls and I have been thinking about going on a training weekend. Alone of course but if we did need someone to stay with us, could you perhaps do it? Or get one of the masters to do it." Mikey finished with the question.
"Why not take Red, he's perfectly capable." Kai said as he moved over to the monitors.
"Kai, we have all decided and he's going to be no help. If we want to be great rangers then we want help from you guys. Now I overheard you guys say that you are the only one who can stay in this world for a long time because of what happened back then. We wouldn't mind if you guys kept an eye on us from the Spitrit World." Mikey said and he took note that Red didn't care at all.
"I'll think about it. I'll let you know my answer later." Kai said as he walked back over to the command desk.
"I don't want to go." Anthony said and was then slapped in the head by Mikey.
"Ok, Kai can you just let us know by the end of the day?" Mikey asked.
"Sure." Kai said as he put his hands to his head.
"Is something wrong?" Mikey studied Kai's worried expression.
"Nope, I'm all good." He lied. Kai was seeing things. He could see Axis. He was in a field. Axis stood above him. Suddenly, Axis attacked. Kai almost stumbled on the ground.
"I don't think you are alright." Alicia ran over to help Kai up.
"I need to go back to the spirit world. I'll see you guys later." Kai disappeared once again.
"Wonder what's wrong with him." Cynthia said as she stopped Anthony from spinning in his chair.
Red stared at them all. He wondered what had happened. Then he felt a vision of his own. Caste stood in front of him. He was saying something but Red couldn't hear him. Red snapped out of it and walked out of the room.

"This is great man." Yuki took things out of the back of a moving truck.
"Well, you need a place to stay. You might as well stay with me." Eduardo said as he held a box labeled "Yuki's Fun Stuff."
"Thanks man. You are really cool for letting me stay here. My roommates really just dropped that information on me from out of nowhere." Yuki explained as he took another box and put it to the top of the pile he was already carrying. They made their way to Eduardo's apartment.
"Where are your roommates going again?" Eduardo asked his ninja friend.
"They said that they wanted to move back to Japan. I wanted to stay. So they said I needed to find another place to stay at, obviously. Then I began looking for apartments in Blue Bay but nothing came up. Thanks for hooking me up though. I hope this isn't intruding on your privacy." Yuki gave thanks and apologized for what Eduardo could count as the 20th time that day.
"I said no problem man. We just got to set some boundaries. That's all." Eduardo play punched his friend.
"Is that all?" A female voice called to the boys.
"Yea. The guy in the truck said he was just going to leave." Yuki looked to the door to see Melissa entering with a plant.
"What's that?" Eduardo asked.
"It's a house warming gift for Yuki. I didn't get you anything because you already live here." Melissa sarcastically laughed at Eduardo. Eduardo did the same thing.
"Well, we should get going. Sensei Cam is leaving and Sensei Dustin is coming back." Yuki said as closed the opened boxes.
"Let's go then. Sensei Dustin is the best. I'm glad he's coming back from his vacation but a little part of me is going to miss Sensei Cam." Melissa told them as they walked out of the apartment. Eduardo locked the door behind them. They liked around and then quickly used the ninja abilities to leave. Within minutes, they were back at the Wind Ninja Academy in their full uniforms.
"Ahh, my favorite students." The group of three turned to see a shaggy haired individual standing behind them. He wore a uniform that resembled the students uniform except with different lines of yellow and the academy symbol being in the middle of his chest.
"Good Morning, Sensei." The students bowed.
"Don't be so formal. Cam left twenty minutes ago. Something about running the samurai acedemy or something. I mean he created a new ninja school and he acts like it's a big deal. I also heard that he tested you Eduardo." Their sensei, known as Dustin, said to the young boy.
"Yea. They caught me by surprise but I beat them all easily. Too be honest too, I didn't know it was Sensei Cam. He spoke from like behind the waterfall I think. I don't remember." Eduardo scratched his head as his friends looked at him.
"Well, I'm back and we need to get down to business. If not, Cam will hate me." Dustin turned and began walking down the path leading to where the main trading field was.
"You beat us easily?" Melissa nudged Eduardo's shoulder.
"Yea I did. I'm the best." Eduardo followed Dustin, the others behind him.

"No, there's no other girl, I promise." Mikey talked into his phone as he paced through the room.
"Girlfriend problems?" Alicia turned to Anthony.
"I don't know, he doesn't tell me everything." Anthony shrugged as he let his head fall on the table.
"His girlfriend is so loud." Cynthia came over to them and sat down.
"What do you think Red?" Anthony turned to the red ranger who leaned against the wall like he always did. Anthony was sort of shocked to see Red just shrug.
"Stephanie! Listen to me!... No, don't stop me from talking. There is no one else... Who told you that?!" Mikey's argument kept getting worse.
"It just got worse." Anthony yawned.
"Listen, I have to go... I'll call you later I promise." Mikey said as he hung up his phone.
"No 'I love you.'" Anthony sent out an air kiss as if he were sending it to a girl.
"Shut up." Mikey sat down with frustration.
"It'll get easier, I hope." Alicia have Mikey a pat on the back.
The alarms in the base began to sound. Mick looked into what was going on. Everyone got up in an instant. He accessed security cameras and was totally shocked in what he found. He turned his chair to face the group of rangers behind him.
"Guys, you need to go to the plaza, now!" Mick told them. The group nodded, morphed and began to leave, Red leading as he past them quickly.
Then teleported to the city's main center. People ran around them. They looked around for what was going on. The rangers helped people get to safety. Red and Black moved forward. When the people were safe, the others joined them. They didn't know what was causing this.
"There!" Pink told them. They all turned and looked at what was going on. There were regular human beings standing around a monster. The humans had weapons and seemed like they were out of it.
"What's wrong with them? Don't they see the monster." Black seemed irritated just looking at this.
"Let's go!" Blue yelled as he jumped. The monster saw him. Blue was then hit black wand he fell to the ground.
The others looked shocked. The monster didn't even move. The others were going to help Blue but they were all hit back, including the red ranger. They fell near where Blue was. They struggled to get back up.
"How?" Black asked as he got up. The monster then came and attacked them. They all did their best to defend themselves. Unfortunately, they were knocked back.
"How were we weakened so fast?" Pink asked as she also struggled to get back up. The monster seemed to enjoy there pain.
"Leave them to us. Go create more killers." A voice called out to monster. The monster followed its orders and he left.
"Stop!" Red yelled as he tried to get back up.
"This is all happening so fast." Blue stated.
"Thats a good thing." The voice from before spoke out again.
"Who said that?" Black asked as they all looked around.
"I don't like the way this is going." Yellow said to the others as they got together. They stood in a line and looked in front of them. Black kept an eye behind them.
Evil laughter could be heard come from all directions. This was in fact happening fast. The fact was that the monsters haven't been as hard as the first three that they faced. This monster just left but these voices. They were sinister. Fear could be felt by the girls. Blue and Black played strong. Red didn't let his guard down.
"We are right here." The voice said again. The rangers turned and were each hit in the chest, causing them to fall back with sparks flying off of them.
They struggled once again to get back up. When Red got up, he was in shock. The clouds got darker and what Red saw was unbelievable. He saw himself along with the others.
"Surprised." The other red asked him.
"Who the hell are you?!" Red pulled out his saber.
"We're Power Rangers, of course." The other red laughed. The others got up in time to see what Red was looking at.
"No way." Black said as he saw the other rangers standing in front of them.
"You better believe it." The other black pointed and clenched his fist.
"This is a joke right." Blue held onto his side.
"The only joke around here, is you." The other blue cracked his knuckles.
"What are we going to do?" Yellow asked as she got up.
"You can't do anything." The other yellow laughed and pointed.
"We have to stop them. They clearly are not on our side." Pink out her hand to her chest.
"You bet we aren't, pinky." The other pink crossed her arms.
"We have to fight. That's obvious." Red stood up tall. They all looked at him. Somehow, his attitude seemed different than what it usually was.
"Good luck with that. We just caught you guys off guard. We work so quick that you won't see us coming." The evil red clenched his fist in fury.
"I know we can stop you." Red pulled his saber out slowly.
"I'd like to see you try." The other red pulled out a similar saber, but it was all black with red outlines.
"Reds right. We can do this guys." Blue stood next to Red. The others struggled but they stood alongside Red. They all nodded in agreement.
"Let's go!" Red yelled as they all pulled their sabers out and charged at their evil clones.
"You heard him. Let's go!" The evil red repeated and the evil rangers charged.
The rangers clashed with the evil rangers that corresponded to their color. They fought with all their force, but the evil rangers proved stronger. They each punched eachother and were sent steps back. The evil rangers then proceeded to separate the rangers with lightning fast speed.
The Pink Rangers ended up fighting at the school. Beast City High School was one of the best schools in the country. The students who were there doing after school activities, scattered as they heard the explosions occurring. One explosion sent Pink flying into a wall.
"Why are you doing this?" Pink asked through her teeth as pain surged through her body.
"Because we want to." Evil Pink was pleased.
Pink stood again and they clashed in the middle. They both ended up in the gym, the wall crumbling as they entered it. They both pulled out blasters and shot eachother. They were both evenly matched somehow. Pink still struggled but pushed through her pain.
I'm the middle of the spectrum, people ran and screamed as a fight occurred in front of the ferris wheel. Black punched Evil Black and vice versa. They knocked over the chairs and tables around the lawn area and they didn't back down.
"I'm going to stop you." Black said through his gritted teeth as he pushed back against Evil Black.
"Unfortunately for you, I'm stronger." Evil Black kicked Black in his gut.
Evil Black grabbed Black and threw him at the statue nearby. Black managed to get up somehow and pulled out his blaster, shooting at the evil version of himself. Evil Black was quick, and managed to dodge the bullets and prepared to punch Black.
At the the university, Yellow and Evil Yellow fought eachother with their speed. They ran around the whole campus, punching eachother as they went. They ended up punching eachother into the library.
"How are you... so fast?" Yellow held her stomach. She felt like vomiting.
"Faster than you." Evil Yellow said as she ran over to Yellow and grabbed her by her neck.
Yellow broke from her hold by kicking her in her left leg. She then punched the evil person and sent her into a pile of books. Evil Yellow got up quickly and kicked Yellow into a different pile of books.
Blue and Evil Blue held back no force as they fought on the pier. They managed to scare away the civilians. Blue shot and slashed. Evil Blue copyed his exact style.
"How?!" Blue yelled.
"Did we forget to mention that we know all your skills and powers. My bad." Evil Blue laughed as he held his blade up.
They clashed once more and sent eachother to different sides of the pier. Blue jumped into the water to try and use it to his advantage. Evil Blue had the same idea and now they clashed under water.
Red and Evil Red's force was leveling every building they entered. They had managed to get into a building that was being rebuilt after all the big monster fights. The workers were all gone of the day but the damage wasn't going to go unnoticed. Red and Evil Red were basically built to make eachother bleed as they punched eachother with the force of one hundred men.
"You bastard! I'm going to kill you!" Red yelled as he punched Evil Red again.
"Not if I kill you first." Evil Red came back and punched Red in the gut.
The building began to collapse and they moved back out into the open. While in mid-air, Evil Red kicked Red and he caused Red to fall faster. The others fell alongside Red.
"Told you that we were better." Evil Blue laughed.
"Who are you guys?!" Red was begin to get angry.
"Shall we?" Evil Pink asked.
"Let's do it." Evil Red claimed.
They lifted their hands into the air and brought them immediately back down. Lighting went throughout all of them. The flash was bright that it covered each evil ranger and almost blinded the regular rangers. Red remained looking. When the lighting went away, they were left shocked. They weren't evil Animal Strike Rangers.
"I ask again. Who are you people?" Red asked as he looked at them all.
"Us?" One of the voices, evil reds, asked.
"You know I'm talking to you!" Red yelled.
"We are... We're the Psycho Rangers!" The smoke that was created finally cleared and showed the evil rangers with different suits on. The rangers all looked at them in horror.
"We're the Psycho Rangers!" The red one, Psycho Red, repeated.
"We're faster than you!" The blue one, Psycho Blue, crossed his arms.
"We're smarter than you." The black one, Psycho Black, laughed.
"We're stronger than you!" The yellow one, Psycho Yellow, pointed her fingers.
"But we're evil!" The pink one, Psycho Pink, clenched her fists.
"Psycho... Rangers." Red could barely stand.
"Psycho Red!"
"Psycho Blue!"
"Psycho Black!"
"Psycho Yellow!"
"Psycho Pink!"
"Now we'll show you what a Psycho Ranger can really do." The Psycho Rangers charged at the other rangers who stood up with the force that they had. They fought eachother but the Psychos were more powerful. They kicked and punched the rangers and sent them back.
"Tiger Sword!" The morpher announced as red summoned his weapon.
"Want to play some more huh?" Psycho Red calles upon his Psycho Sword.
"Let's go!" Red yelled again and he clashed with Psycho Red.
The others pulled out their weapons as well. Blue used his Shark Sabers while Psycho Blue used his Psycho Axe. Black used his Bull Axe while Psycho Black used his Psycho Rod. Yellow used her Cheetah Claws while Psycho Yellow used her Psycho Sling. Pink used her Phoenix Bow while Psycho Pink used her Psycho Bow.
They all fought with full power once again but the Psycho Rangers proved to be stronger. The rangers were able to get hits in. Before they were all sent flying, Blue managed to pierce Psycho Blue on his side.
"You bastard!" Psycho Blue yelled as he punched Blue in the face.
The rangers, except for Red, were all forced to demorph. Red ran back to them and stood in front of them. He gripped his sword tighter.
"Psykric!" Psycho Red called out. The monster from before appeared suddenly. Psycho Red pointed at the rangers and the monster knew what to do.
The monster prepared the blades on the side of his arms and he sent two blades flying at Red. Red slashed and seperated both blades. What he didn't think would happen, happened. The blades hit Alicia and Cynthia and their pain grew.
"We'll leave you like this for today. I'm feeling a bit tired and a bit disappointed at how strong you are. We will meet again!" Psycho Red clenched his fist and they all disappeared with black lightning surronding them.
Mikey quickly went to the girls aid. He helped them up when he noticed what looked like blood, stained on his hoodie. He decided that he would look at it later. He picked up Alicia while Anthony picked up Cynthia. They quickly ran to the nearest teleporter in a back alley. Red went along with them.
When they made it to base, they took the girls to the medical bay where Mick and Redbot got to work. They needed to find out what kind of damage those blades did. Red passed by the monitors in the main room and looked at the security cameras that were on the screen. The cameras were focused on the plaza. People had once again returned but something was off.
When Red studied it more closely, he noticed bodies on the floor. He almost fell over. All he could see was red. He put his hand up to his head as he walked out of the main room. He made way for his own room and demorphed. He felt like throwing up but he held it in. He fell to the floor and he dug his face into his knees. Psycho Red was just to strong.
Back in the medical bay, Mick managed to get the blades out of the girls and he prepared the computer to scan them before letting them rest. Once that was all done, Mick and Anthony walked out of the room and into the main room. Mikey followed behind them. They looked at the screens and felt sick. Mick turned it off.
"Mick? Do you know about the Psycho Rangers?" Anthony asked as he put his hand to his stomach, feeling the kicks he had recieved not to long ago.
"The Psycho Rangers are just what the title says. They are psycho." Kai appeared from the flames again.
"That's obvious." Mikey felt the blood come out the side of his mouth. He cleaned it with his finger. He was about to just clean his finger off with his hoodie, considering he had to wash it because of the other stain, but Mick stopped him.
"Is that blood?" Mick looked at the unknown stain.
"Maybe. I'm theorizing that it may have come from Psycho Blue." Mikey took off his hoodie and handed it over to Mick.
"I'll run an analysis right away." Mick got up and exited the room.
"You two need to get rest. Red can take care of anything if it comes up." Kai said to them.
"Kai, I'm going to help Mick. He seemed like he gained an idea. I hope that's ok with you." Mikey looked at Kai, who had barely turned his head.
"I like your thinking kid." Mikey turned around to see Trench appear. Anthony almost fell off his chair when Delta hit him on his shoulder.
"Thanks." Mikey said to his master.
"Go and do it. The faster the better. Speed and Niji aren't doing good after that attack." Trench told the inhabitants of the room, Red rejoining the group.
"Yea, they just fell to the floor." Delta stated as he crossed his arms.
"I was just there. How did this happen?" Kai asked his fellow masters.
"It happened so suddenly." Delta seemed worried.
"We think it might have something to do with Yellow and Pink being hit with the blades. We think we should be there to calm their auras down before they go out of control." Trench said to Kai.
"Go. We'll take care of things here." Kai turned to the owner of the voice. Red crossed his own arms and faced away from the group.
"Ok. I trust you." Kai nodded and with that, the masters disappeared.
"Miley, go see what Mick is up to. Anthony, morph. We are going to try and find the monster, Psykric." Red took charge quickly.
"Good idea, for once." Mikey walked out of the room.
"Fine. I'll listen." Anthony morphed and they both left.

"Jeez, What the hell happened here?" Yuki and Eduardo entered Beast City. Smoke rose into the air. There were cars flipped over.
"That's weird." Eduardo walked, Yuki following him.
They walked on for a few blocks until they came across a group of young people, nearly their age, running away from other people. Eduardo noticed that the chasers had weapons in their hands. Yuki noticed that the chasers faces were pale and they had red in their eyes.
"What the..." Yuki stopped when both boys noticed a group of people who had similar conditions to the first group. The people looked at them and immediately began to chase them. The young boys didn't hesitate and began to run in the opposite way.
"What's happening?!" Yuki yelled as he ran.
"I don't know. Go to the forest, I have some weapons hidden there." Eduardo said to his friend and they headed to the forest.
When they arrived at their destination, Eduardo went straight for a tree that seemed old. Eduardo used his wind ability and broke off a piece of wood from the tree. He pulled out two ninja swords and gave one to Yuki.
"Defend yourself." Eduardo said as he ran back to the city, avoiding the monsters in his path. Yuki followed his friend.
When they got back to their apartment building, they proceeded to try and get in but they noticed more crazy looking people inside.
"They look like they've gone, psycho!" Yuki stepped away from the building door.
"And they are coming right at us." The boys turned to see a group of girls walked slowly up to them. They had seductive smiles as they held up knives.
"What are you doing?!" Black came crashing into the group of girls and sent them into the building through its open doors. Black fell to the ground and Red closed the doors and pulled off a metal bar from the wall. He put it into the doors handles and bent it a little using his ranger strength. It wasn't too much but it would hold.
"See, you helped." Red leaned against the door. He felt the people pushing against the door.
"Yea Yea. Has Mick found out anything about this yet?" Black asked as he got up.
"Hey Mick, you got the info we sent." Red talked into his morpher.
"Yea, me and Mikey are working on analyzing what happened to these people. We are also seeing if we can make an antidote. Something I theorize is that the water from the Shark Battery can bring them back temporarily but not permantley. But I'm not sure it that's true." Mick explained.
"Well, let's give your theory a try." Red pushed his belt and pulled out the Shark Beast Battery. He inserted it into his morpher and pressed the Attack Button on his morpher.
"Shark!" The morpher yelled out as Red aimed. He pushed the attack button once more and the attack was launched. The water went through the cracks and he managed to get all he girls somehow. They all started shaking and their skin color returned to normal. They looked around at eachother, confused at what was going on.
"Help?" One of the girls asked as she pushed on the door. Black was going to help, but Red pulled him back. The girls reverted back to how they were before.
"It worked for like five seconds." Red said into the morpher.
"I got it!" Mick yelled.
"Why is it?" Red asked.
"That monster, his blades have some sort of poison. Instead of killing people, he makes them into real psychos. The water had a minimal affect but if we get the Megazord to spray the whole city, then maybe we can help the people return to normal." Red could hear Mick typing on the computer.
"Well then, let's form the Megazord." Red said as he was ready to pull out his Zord battery.
"It'll be no good. Alicia and Cynthia are still knocked out." Mick sounded worried.
"Did you say Alicia?" Eduardo practically pounced on the red ranger.
"Get off!" Red pushed him off but Eduardo kept trying to talk to the Morpher.
"I'll keep you posted, Mikey finished analyzing the stain on his hoodie. See ya." Mick signed off. Red had finally managed to kick Eduardo.
"Where's Alicia?" Eduardo asked as Yuki helped him up.
"I'm sorry for my friend. He needs to work on being a better person." Yuki told the rangers. Eduardo gave a confused look.
"Black, head back to base. Help them in whatever they need." Red commanded.
"Why?" Black asked.
"They sound like they could use help." Red pushed him.
"Fine. If it means I don't have to be here." Black ran off.
"Now I need to get to work." Red turned to the boys. The boys looked at eachother and they gulped.

"Mick, this is definitely Psycho Blue's blood. The computer analyzes this as blood." Mikey explained.
"It may be blood, but what can we do with it. Everything is happening so fast. The Psycho Rangers appeared out of nowhere and now the city has gone into a State of Emergency. The country is being warned and they are sending SWAT teams to stop the chaos." Mick explained as he showed Mikey the news report.
"Yea its so bad that the city is becoming a hashtag. Celebrities are even sending out messages about staying strong or whatever." Anthony walked into the room.
"Mick, you said that Beast Batteries have various powers, right? Can you make Beats Batteries yourself" Mikey didn't even bother to ask Anthony why he came back to base.
"Yes, Kai taught me the way to create them. What were you thinking?" Mick asked the blue ranger.
"I was thinking that if this is Psycho Blue's blood, then we can create a Beast Battery to go against their strength. Somehow, this battery can help us gain the strength of the Psycho Rangers." Mikey picked you what seemed to be an empty battery.
"I see. With the DNA of a Psycho Ranger, we can create some sort of Psycho Mode that we can control." Mick immediately got to work on the computer.
"Anthony, keep an eye on the girls and tell us when they wake up." Mikey told the younger ranger.
"Ok." Anthony sighed and left the room. Mikey put his hoodie on the table.
Anthony walked down the corridor. He was lost in his thoughts. When he walked into the medical room, no one was there. Anthony gained a confused face. He looked around and walked back out.
"Hello Anthony." Anthony heard a cold voice. He turned to face the way that led to the training center. Alicia and Cynthia walked towards him, their faces pale and their eyes glowing a light green.
"Time to die." The girls said at the same time.
"Oh shit." Anthony said before he started running.

~2 years ago~
Kai woke up to see Saul sleeping on the other side of the cart. He got up and stretched his arms. He got up to see where they were. It was night but he could tell that they were half way there.
"Awake now?" Kai turned to see Saul leaning against the wall.
"I'm sorry I dropped the bomb on you like that." Kai chuckled.
"Why am I working for a music company?" Saul asked, not forgetting where he was going to start work the following week.
"I shared some of your guitar tracks that you had on your phone. The company loved it. They said that they would love to have you on board and they would put you with a group so that you can be their guitarist when they played shows." Kai explained.
"Guess I'm excited." Saul sounded unenthusiastic.
"When we get to Guadalajara, you will train for three days. Then we are leaving for Japan." Kai threw over a piece of paper. Saul opened it and a pair of keys fell out.
"What's this?" Saul picked up the keys.
"Your house keys for the houses in Guadalajara and Tokyo. You also have a key there for your Evo." Kai said as he looked out the window.
"My Evo?!" Saul felt excitement take over.
"Yea, you will need a car to get to work." Kai said to him.
"Awesome." Saul gripped the keys in his hand.
"You will also receive a key from the company, it gives you access to the company building." Kai told him.
"Nice." Saul already seemed impressed.
"As for your training, you trading weapon awaits in Tokyo, so until then, you are stuck with the wooden stick." Kai sat down again.
"I'm fine with that." Saul fell asleep once more.
"Good kid." Kai let himself fall asleep as well.

"Isn't it wonderful." Psycho Red lifted his arms as he embraced the disater that went on below them. The Psycho Rangers stood atop a tower overlooking the city.
"Yes, we shall finish off the rangers soon." Psycho Black clenched his fist.
"Look down there." Psycho Pink pointed at the ground.
They all looked down to see the red ranger walking with two guys following him. They also turned to see who was about to run into him.
"This should be interesting." Psycho Blue crossed his arms.
"Yes, very interesting." Psycho Yellow stated.
"Zaku!" Red yelled as he saw the dog like monster appearer.
"Hello Red. I'm so glad you remember me." Zaku stated as he walked up to Red.
"How could I forget an ugly face like yours." Red offended the monster in front of him.
"I will kill you here and now, that is my plan." Zaku pulled out his big sword.
"Shall we then?" Red brought out the Tiger Sword.
They clashed immediately, hitting eachother without hesitation. Eduardo and Yuki stayed back as they witnessed the battle. They didn't know what to do. None of them held back. Psycho Blue decided that it would be a great idea and record them.
They battled for about ten minutes, none of them backing off. Then, a mysterious force hit Zaku and sent him flying. Red looked around and only saw a ball of light float away. Zaku, thinking it was Axis' doing, left through his black cloud.
"This shit is getting crazier." Red said as he motioned for the other two to follow.
On another rooftop, someone stood looking down at them. He then opened a book. He read it and nodded. He took notice in the dark clouds coming over the city. He flipped the pages of the book and scanned the page he landed on. The page was titled, Time Warp. The figure closed the book and left.

"Stay away!" Anthony dodged a knife swing from Cynthia and continued to run.
"Come back here!" Cynthia yelled as she ran behind Alicia.
"Help me!" Anthony screamed as he entered the lab where Mikey and Mick were. He shit the door and locked it.
"What's wrong?" Mikey asked as he continued working on the battery.
"Psycho... Girls... help." Anthony tried to catch his breath.
"Oh no, the girls have been affected by the blades. We need to hurry up. Anthony, here. Use this for five minutes and they will be cured, I hope." Mick threw over a Shark Battery.
"You think! They'll kill me!" Anthony yelled.
"Do something or I will kill you." Mikey asked him in a not so pleasant tone.
"Come and play with us!" Alicia scratched the window with the knife. Anthony gulped.
"I hate you guys." Anthony said as he opened the door and kicked both girls back. "Come and get me!" Anthony ran down the hall and inserted the battery into his morpher. He shot backwards without turning around. He knew they were right behind him, he could feel their presence.
Back in the lab, Mikey carefully put the empty battery into a test tube. He closed it and signaled Mick. Mick pushed a button and the battery began charging up. It began to change colors. After a minute, the battery was finished. It was red in color with what looked like the Psycho Rangers helmets. Mikey pulled it out carefully and held it in his hands.
"We did it." Mikey yawned as he sat down. Although it felt like time had gone by quickly, Mikey felt tired.
"Ok, so I finished looking at the battery's abilities. It has an attack that can make a person go psycho, I didn't really want that but I couldn't take it out, an attack to make people go back to normal, and a Psycho power up mode." Mick explained the capabilities that the new battery had.
"Ok, well as long as it works and we won't know unless we try. I need to get out there." Mikey got up but felt lightheaded and almost fell over.
"Be careful." Mick said to the young adult.
"Guys, What happened?" Alicia walked into the room alongside Cynthia.
"Wait!" Mikey pulled up the battery.
"Psycho!" The morpher said in a high tone. Mikey aimed and shot the two girls. The girls felt a green shock before falling over.
"Are they down?" Anthony cowered behind the door.
"Are you guys alright?" Mikey asked as he helped them up.
"Yea. Sorry for trying to kill you Anthony." Cynthia apologized to the scared black ranger.
"No time for anything. This is passing fast and we need to stop it. Let's go!" Mikey ran off. The girls ran behind him. Anthony, still shivering, ran after them.

"You gonna help me?!" Red asked as he moved over a block of concrete.
"I'd say we should split ways here. It'll help us cover more ground." Eduardo put his hands behind his head.
"Stay safe." Red waved to them as they walked off. Something seemed familiar to him about Eduardo. He couldn't put his finger on it.
"Eduardo, are you sure about this?" Yuki strikes his hair as the boys walked.
"Yea. We change into our ninja uniforms and help the Power Rangers. Imagine that." Eduardo ran off to the forest again.
"Fine." Yuki ran behind him.
Red moved over rubble and continued forward. He saw all the trash on the floor and noticed a few pieces of memorabilia. He picked up a broken album. He recognized the group instantly and he tossed it aside. He yawned. It had somehow been almost a day.
"Found you." Blue ran up to Red.
"Yea. What's the plan?" Red asked. He then felt a strange presence. He could hear voices whispering in his head. He decided to ignore it.
"The plan is to kill you all!" Psycho Red yelled as the Rangers were blasted back. The Psycho Rangers fell down to the ground.
"Let's do it!" Psycho Blue got into fighting position
"I got this guys!" Blue got up and prepared his battery. He inserted it into his morpher and he inserted a code.
#631
"Psycho!" The Morphers Light voice said again.
He stood their and embraced the air that came at him. The Psycho Rangers prepared for the worst. The worst never came. They looked at the rangers in confusion.
"Ha Ha! Let's make your death fast." Psycho Red preapred his weapon.
"Why isn't it working!" Blue tried activating the battery but it wouldn't work.
"I'm going to assume you used my blood to create that battery." Psycho Blue stated as the Psycho Rangers got closer.
On the other side of town, the monster known as Psykric was still creating psychos and providing them with weapons. He walked on preparing to make the next psi when he was hit by wind. The monster fell over and grunted. When he got up he looked around.
"Who's out there!" The monsters deep voice boomed.
"We are the air! We are the earth! We are," the voices that the monster heard stopped. Suddenly, he was attacked by wind once more and was sent flying into trees. "Wind Ninjas!" Eduardo and Yuki, in full uniform along with their face covers, came out of no where.
"Who the hell are you?!" The monster got up.
"Your worst nightmare." Yuki clenched his fist in front of him.
"Don't do that." Eduardo put Yuki's hand down.
"Oh yea! Ravagers!" The beast like monsters appeared from the ground. They immediately attacked the ninjas.
The ninja wasted no time. Eduardo began using his air techniques to send the monsters back. Yuki stomped on the ground and sent the monsters flying. Eduardo then jumped and disappeared as the wind flowed. Yuki jumped into the ground.
"What the? Where did they go?" The monster walked forward. The few Ravagers that were left, looked around.
"Right here!" The yells from the ninjas caught the monsters off guard. Eduardo and Yuki came out of nowhere and hit the monsters with their ninja swords. The wind howled and the ground shook as they moved causing the earth to seem like it was coming to life.
Back with the rangers, Blue continued to try but nothing worked. The others could do nothing but watch. The only problem was that Red couldn't stop hearing the voice. It told him something but he didn't know what it wanted.
"It's time!" Psycho Red lifted his sword up with full force, ready to bring it down on Blue. When he finally brought it down, it was halted on its way down. Red was on one knee, holding his own sword against the Psycho Sword.
"What the hell is he doing?!" Psycho Blue asked.
"Being an idiot!" Psycho Pink answered without wanting to.
"You are a nuisance!" Psycho Red yelled.
"Says you!" Red pulled out his Strike Blaster and shot Psycho Red in his gut.
"How!" Psycho Black looked at the Red Ranger, anger rising around him and the other psychos.
"Thanks Red." Blue put out his hand but Red shoved it away. Red got up and took the battery from Blue's grasp.
"I need this." Reds voice seemed darker than usual. Red activated the battery and insterted it into his morpher. A surge of dark power flowed through his body. Inside, Saul could see his past. A lot of stuff was still blurry. He was confused as to why but it didn't matter now. Red, through his now growing pain, pushed in the code.
#631
"Psycho!" The morpher said, but this time it said it in a darker tone. It wasn't so nice. It sounded... evil.
Red began screaming as he glowed. His yells grew louder the brighter he glowed. The Psycho Rangers looked in awe. The other rangers looked in shock. Red began to move and got on his knees. More and more memory's flossed his mind. What was happening? Red couldn't stop screaming as darkness began to circle him. After a bright flash, everyone around was left stunned.
Red now stood in between both groups. He was Red but his suit was different. His helmet was totally different. The front of it was completely gone. It was all black and his visor now looked as if it was like that of the Psycho Rangers. The only thing on his helmet that looked like a tiger was the sides of the helmets, which shifted up slightly. He also gained a silver mouthpiece similar to the Psycho Rangers, black teeth like marks around the mouthpiece. He gained shoulder pads that pointed out like the Psycho Rangers. He gained metal like orbs around his body. He also gained white gauntlet like objects on his wrists and legs. His boots were black and his tiger motif looked more, for the lack of a better word, Psycho. His number also seemed to give off a Psycho vibe. He definitely looked like a Psycho Ranger.
"Psycho Red Tiger!" Red yelled as he posed with his fists out. His voice seemed darker and he had the same echo effect that the Psycho Rangers had.
"How is this possible!" Psycho Red said as he stood straight. The other Psycho Rangers growled as the new Red Ranger stood before them.
"What is he doing?" Blue asked as he looked at the new form.
"It's time for you to die!" Red yelled as he took out his sword. The sword was surrounded by dark power. Red ran to the Psycho Rangers, moving so fast that no one could see him. He slashed Psycho Red sending him flying into a building. He kicked Psycho Blue and Yellow, sending them towards the university. He punched Psycho Black and Pink, sending them into the park.
"Red. How did you..." Blue was stopped.
"Go and get your opposites. I'm going to destroy Psycho Red!" Red ran quickly, leaving behind a dust cloud.
"What's wrong with him?" Pink asked as she walked up to Blue.
"I don't know, but we'll figure it out after we take out the Psycho Rangers. Use everything you have." Blue signaled to Yellow to follow him. She did and the others ran in the other direction.
Red got to the building where he threw Psycho Red. He ran up to the top floor, the floor where he threw the Psycho into. He walked around, looking for any clue as to where Psycho Red had gone to. He was going to open a door into a corridor but he was kicked back into the wall behind him.
"So, you have gained out power. Let's see if you can control it." Psycho Red attacked Red with his sword.
At the university, Blue and Yellow clashed with their Psycho counterparts. Yellow threw Psycho Yellow into bookshelf's. Blue fought with his sabers. Blue had already taken notice that Psycho Blue was the weakest in his current state.
"You guys don't seem so confident anymore." Blue continued hitting Blue with his sabers.
"He's right. Where did all your bragging go." Yellow continued her fight with Psycho Yellow.
"You guys will be defeated by us!" Psycho Yellow caught one of Yellows punches and kicked her in her stomach. She picked up Yellow and threw her into the bookshelf's on the second floor.
"Yellow!" Blue got distracted and was easily kicked from behind.
At the park, Black and Pink struggled with their counterparts. They used various lighting attacks to hit the rangers head on. Black helped Pink up. The Psycho Rangers began to get close but were suddenly hit by a Ravager monster.
"Stop right there!" Yuki had appeared to the aid of the rangers.
"A ninja?" Black asked.
"How do you know that?" Pink turned to him.
"He looks like a ninja." Black pointed out.
"Time for an earth attack!" Yuki exclaimed as he moved his hands in a certain way before ultimately putting them on the ground. The earth trembled and the Psycho Rangers lost their balance.
"Good work." Black complimented. The Psycho Rangers got back up.
"We still have work to do." Pink got into formation.
"I'll help out." Yuki told them as they yelled together and charged at the evil rangers.
Psycho Red and Red continued their battle in the building. They punched and kicked. They pulled out their weapons and they hit eachother. They charged and when they met in the middle, Psykric was sent flying into Psycho Red.
"Ninja. You came." Red said as he turned to face the ninja in red and black leather.
"You said to come." Eduardo held up a piece of paper that was handed to him earlier.
"You two don't stand a chance against us." Psycho Red pointed his sword at the two heroes.
"I'm getting tired of this guy." Red pointed his own sword.
"You know, you sound very familiar, even with that echo." Eduardo studied the red ranger.
"Let's go!" Red yelled as he charged at Psycho Red. Eduardo followed as he charged at the monster. After a few minutes, all of them kicked eachother off the building. They fell onto the ground. Eduardo felt intense pain surge through his body. Red only stood up, unharmed.
"Stop! Stop right now!" Psycho Red stood up, feeling defeated somehow. The other Psycho Rangers were thrown near Psycho Red. Psykric could barely fell his own feet.
"We have to stop them now!" Blue yelled as the rangers and ninja gathered together.
"I got this." Red pulled out the Psycho Battery. He inserted it into his morpher.
"Psycho Attack!" The morpher activated as the sword lit up in dark flames.
"You guys weren't at your maximum power. Then again, you guys were only prototypes. Until we meet again, for real." Red spoke to the Psycho Rangers. Red pulled up his sword. The others looked.
"No!" Psycho Red yelled.
"Psycho Tiger Flame Strike!" Red yelled, his voice sounding more like a demon. He brought down his sword and sent out a dark flaming tiger that hit its target head on. The Psycho Rangers blew up along with Psykric.
"I barely got any screen time." The monster yelled as the explosion rose.
"Time to destroy you!" Red pulled up his sword and turned to the rangers.
"What?!" Blue got into a defensive position.
Caste watched from another nearby building. He sat on the edge, one leg up on the ledge, the other one resting on the roof. He studied the situation. He then looked up at the clouds. They were still dark and twisted. He got up and opened a pad like container from his belt. He pulled out a bullet and studied it in between his fingers. He sighed.
"Why am I doing this?" He asked himself as he pulled his sniper over. He inserted the bullet into his morpher and cocked it. He then stood up and got on one knee, setting the sniper to rest on the roofs edge. Caste looked with his good eye. He still had his eyepatch. He sighed once more before pulling the trigger. The bullet fired and the sound could be heard throughout the city. It was utterly quiet except for the sounds of the flames that rose.
The bullet hit the monsters remains and they began to grow. Red stopped his his tracks and turned around to see the big monster. He immediately called upon the Tiger Zord which arrived fast. He jumped into its cockpit and prepared for battle. He inserted a Tiger Beast Battery and pressed the B and M keys on his console.
"Time to show you losers what real power can do!" Red yelled as his suit returned to normal as well as his voice. The Tiger Zord stopped and rose so that it stood on its hind legs. When the Zord was now pointing up, the legs gained more parts. The tigers front arms moved to the side and gained more parts as well. The Zord began to gain additional parts coming from what one would assume is outer space. No one actually knew. The zords head turned and revealed a face. It kept the tiger head on as if it were a helmet.
"Tiger Battlezord!" The newly formed Battlezord posed with its sword.
"I didn't know his Zord could do that!" Blue pointed at the giant robot.
"He's still holding information from us." Yellow stated the obvious.
"Attack!" Red yelled as he punched the gas. The Battlezord moved quickly as it came into contact with the monster. It hit the monster with its sword and lit it on fire. The clouds only got darker and time seemed irrelevant as the battle continued. What seemed like twenty minutes was only five minutes. The monster roared as it was pierced. The swords tip was now covered in the monsters blood.
"How powerful is this mode?" Black saw everything that was going on as if it were in a movie.
"That's some scary power." Pink trembled a little and almost fell over before Yellow caught her.
"Die!" Reds demonic voice got deeper as he continued slashing at the monster. He laughed manically as he was ready to slash everything around him before something entered his mind. He stopped and he felt time freeze.
"Don't do it. Don't fall to the darkness." A females voice echoed through his head. He put his hand up to his helmet and began to scream in pain. His body was now steaming. He was now panting. He seemed to return to normal. He looked at the monster again and prepared his final attack.
"Final Strike!" Red inserted his Beast Battery into the console. "Tiger Fury Slash!" Red yelled as he lifted the sword into the air, letting it catch fire. He then slashed the monster with a powerful fire slash similar to the Megazords. A huge tiger appeared and defeated the monster. The monster roared once more before falling and exploding.
"He did it." Yuki jumped up. A ball of light once again passed by them. Then, an energy wave of epic proportions surrounded the city. In an instant, the clouds disappeared and the sky was blue again. Some buildings were rebuilt easily and others were left with the minor damage they recieved. Civilians came out of buildings and homes confused.
"I need to get out of here." Red held his head again. He pushed the buttons V and M. The Battlezord transformed back into its normal form but then changed again. This time it changed into a vehicle. It looked like a sports car. It's spoiler rising high. The tiger head remained in front of the vehicle. Red then drove off, leaving the others confused.
"Another mode?" Blue asked as he put his fingers to his chin.
"Where's he going?" Black scratched his helmet.
"Thanks for the help ninjas!" Pink waved at the ninjas who now stood atop a building.
"Glad we helped." Yuki yawned as he put his hands behind his head.
"I'm glad too. Now let's go. Rocky is probably lonely right now." Eduardo ran off.
"Rocky? Lonely?" Yuki had never heard such a word escape Eduardo's mouth before. He followed his friend who had somehow changed a bit. He remembered that the Red Ranger had given them a piece of paper but all he knew was what was written on one side, not the other. That was a question for another time.

"How could they fail!" Axis threw a chair to his wall. His office in Seoul, Korea was big and fit many people. He happened to bring Byxis and Zaku with him.
"Sir, I ran some tests on them before they were destroyed. It turns out that their power was only supposed to last a few hours. That's a reason for time moving so fast, I think." Byxis told his master.
"You mean that you couldn't make them stronger for more time!" Zaku yelled as he stared down the monster. Axis gave him an angry look.
"No, that's not the problem. It seems that the Infinity Star only gave them a certain time limit." Byxis reported.
"You mean to tell me that the star acted on its own?" Axis asked with an impolite tone.
"Yes sir. Just like when we met Zaku. You weren't able to access the full power of the star. It seems to be rejecting you." Byxis read from his tablet.
"The star still rejects me and my power. In due time, I'm sure my darkness will turn that star to my side." Axis eyes looked cold and dead.
"Yes you will master." Zaku bowed.
"Start testing the star now!" Axis yelled.
"Yes sir." Byxis saluted.
"Mr. X, I have a pretty good argument now." The producer from a few days earlier walked into the room. When he looked up he saw the monsters and screamed. Axis me office was soundproof. No one could hear him after the door closed. The man was going to get up but a Guard Ravager blocked the door.
"Oh producer," Axis looked outside the window as he picked up a glass sphere. The sphere was taken over by darkness. "You should have knocked." Axis said coldly as he hurled the sphere into the man, causing him to melt and letting the darkness burn him from the inside out. The man screamed in pain. Axis closed his eyes but kept his frown. He was angry.

"That's interesting." Mick typed into his computer. He seemed interested in what he was looking at. He studied it. It was the Morohing Grid itself. He had been studying it more for weeks now and had decided to try again. This time he found something within the grid. Some black sparks flew out of what seemed to be a crack. Mick looked closer. He didn't like what he was looking at. He knew that Kai and the other masters were resting after what happened with Alicia and Cynthia earlier that day. He had a long night of reaserch ahead of him.

Beast City's night sky was always full of stars. The moon was I clear view as the crickets made their sounds. Cars were moving everywhere and the sound of construction could be heard throught the city. On top of a tower that was being newly built, for a company that planned to open an office in Beast City, stood a man. He looked over the city as he stood under a light used for late night construction workers. He proceeded to pull out a book from his bag.
"Disaster." The man whispered as he opened the book. He flipped a few pages before he got to the one he was looking for. The title of the page, "Time Warp", was written really big. He scanned the page and turned to the next page. He put his finger on what he was reading.
"Today was something special. Time seemed to go quickly but slowly at the same time. I may need to look into this some more. I'm still too early either way." The man pulled out a pencil and scribbled a self note on the page. He continued reading until he got to the word "Infinity Star". He closed the book and held it at his side. The title on the book was "Project Animal Strike". The authors name was covered by the mans hand. The only visible part was, "Alvi" and "rk". His watch began to beep.
"Times up." The man said as he lifted his wrist up to his face in order to read the time. Zeros was all that were on the watch as they flashed. In an instant, a temporal portal opened above him. He looked up and was sucked into the portal. He left to who knows where. Or better yet, who knows when. The city could rest... for now.

A/N: Hey people! I'm finally posting Chapter 6. I've been meaning to finish and post it for a while but a pulled of things popped up. I'm glad to finally finish it. This chapter probably didn't make sense for you and it didn't make to me when I was writing it until I reworked it a bit. I'm still happy with the way this came out. There may be some mistakes and if it makes your uncomfortable, feel free to let me know and I'll change it the best way I can if it needs to be changed. Did that make sense? I don't know. I'm sorry for the absence and I thank you for your patience. Hope you enjoy. Peace!
