All the elements they had at their disposal were used to pin down all of the dead. There were about a countless amount of them, but nothing they couldn't handle with their magic. Until...

Wolzard was about to attack with his sword, but something invisible stopped him. He appeared as though time just stopped for him.

"Father!" Magiyellow called, "What's wrong?"

"I... can't... move!" he answered.

"Hikaru!" Magiblue screamed. Magishine appeared to be experiencing the same problem.

Suddenly, they could move again. But instead of continuing to ward off the dead, they attacked the family. Not one of the other six understood this behavior.

"Isamu..." Magimother tried to talk to him.

"I... don't... want... to do... this...!" he managed to say.

For some reason, the two of them had become puppets, controlled by an unknown force. It didn't take long before it became clear that hurting the others wasn't their priority. They were drawn together, so that both Magishine and Wolzard could create a force field that kept them all in place.

"Father!" Magired yelled, "Stop this!"

"I... wish... I... could!" he replied.

"Now it's time to get serious!" another voice said.

It wasn't a voice none of them hadn't heard before, though. They all recognized the black magician they saw earlier. They were all screaming things at him, but he didn't listen. He immediately attacked the dead people.

There was something peculiar about the way he fought. He didn't actually try to hurt them. He used some magic to lift up one of them and crash him into others. He used his scythe to beat some of them down, or to draw them into certain directions. The only thing that's clear about what he's doing is the fact that he didn't kill any of them, assuming they weren't already dead.

"That guy doesn't even know that scythe can actually cut people!" Magired remarked

Magigreen was the first to realize what the magician really did: "He's separating the turned people from the dead monsters!"

"What is he up to?" Magipink wondered.

"Does he know what's wrong with Hikaru and father?" Magiblue thought out loud.

"He doesn't really talk much, does he." seemed to be the most important thing on Magiyellow's mind.

"That's some techniques he's using." Magimother realized.

The other two would've said anything at all, if they were given the freedom of doing anything at all.

At some point, the black magician had done what Magigreen had described. He indeed separated them. With the humans on one side, and the monsters at the other, he smashed the sharp end of his scythe into the ground, in the direction of the turned people. Whatever magic it was that had them turned, suddenly left them, and they all turned back to normal. The magic on the other hand got absorbed by the magician's scythe.

"Go away!" he told them.

Neither of them thought he needed to tell them twice. As they went, the black magician turned to the monsters. The monsters had already started to gather around, but not to stratigise their next attack or something like that. They seemed to blow themselves apart, only to rejoin again, in such a way that all of the dead were becoming one giant monster.

The black magician was not impressed. His scythe turned back into a wand, with which he pointed to the ground. A flashing green beam came out, causing the ground to split open, to reveal a huge zeppelin. As the monsters were still becoming one, the magician ran into the zeppelin, into the cockpit, and made it start transforming. The zeppelin's compartment, along with half of the balloon to which it hung, had formed the robot, whereas the other half of the balloon became a shield.

Meanwhile, none of the Magirangers had any idea of what they were witnessing. Each of them had a different opinion. One thought it was cool to see this giant robot, whereas the other thought he is too weak to learn to change into Magika himself.

The giant monster had finished himself. He stood eye to eye with the black magician's robot.

"It's about time Hendenberg's used in battle." the magician said as he made the robot make it's first move.

The monster attacked, but this was dodged with Hendenberg's shield. He immediately used the shield to attack the monster, and keep him at a distance.

"Let's see you get a taste of you're own medicine." the magician said.

Suddenly, the power he had absorbed from the dead people earlier seemed to be collecting itself inside the shield. Not long after that, he held up the shield as if it were a rifle gun. It shot a blinding white beam to the monster, evidently resulting into it's destruction.
