Here we go with chapter 15 (Chapter 92) of season two. I hope everyone is doing all right and everything is okay where you guys are at. Thanks again for the reviews from the last chapter. I appreciate it guys and glad you're all enjoying this.
I've been enjoying working on these chapters again and having a lot of fun on seeing the response from everyone. Things are getting good, especially as we get closer to seeing who will take on the Green Ranger power. I love the suggestions people have made. But I hope you all will be okay with the decision I ultimately will make.
Now, last time, we had the others making their move. Ahsoka and Barriss attacking the Separatist forces. Both trying to achieve their goal, while protecting their troops. In the meantime, Master Kenobi and Windu have met up with Zane.
They met their allies on Tatooine, from Kitster to the Tusken Raiders. Zane also showing they aren't mindless creatures like everyone thinks they are. Something I appreciate the Mandalorian showing us in the first episode of season two. So, I'm glad I was able to show it here too.
Will their new allies be enough to help liberate Tatooine? Will Ahsoka and Barriss liberate Teth? Will they be able to stop General Arachnia's forces? Or will something come along to stop the Power Rangers?
Tune in today to find out and I wanted to thank you guys for the reviews and support. I appreciate it and I am enjoying the comments you guys have left. Also thank you to my friend for his help as well and hope you are doing well my friend where you are at. Now, time for the disclaimer.
I don't own anything from Star Wars or the Power Rangers. I just own my OCs, while Tiberous was made by my friend. Enjoy the chapter everyone and hope you like this.
The Sixth Knight Part IV
Teth
Barriss and her troops continued to take out much of the enemy forces on the ground. Trying to get close to the shield so they can wait for Ahsoka and her team to shut it down. Once they do, then they'll be able to make their way up the mountain. To take back control from the Separatist, before the fog can disappear, and their turrets can take out their Walkers.
Barriss has her troops use the trees to take cover, while they push the enemy back. While she helps protect the Walkers from the enemy's heavier weapons.
She begins to receive word that Ahsoka, and her team have made their move. Now, they need to wait until they shut down the shield and allow them to make their way up the mountain. She looks up to see the thick fog slowly disappearing and some sunlight is coming in. Barriss knows they don't have a lot of time and they have to get the shield down before it's too late.
"General!" one of the Clone soldiers called nearby. "We're getting close, but the shield is up. What do you want us to do?"
"We'll hold our position until the others can shut down the shield. Make sure the Walkers stay out of sight of the enemy forces," Barriss ordered knowing that's all they can really do.
Suddenly they hear what sounds like a loud roaring echoing nearby. Barriss looks over and sees what appears to be ten large Jungle Rancor charging in at them.
"Fall back! Fall back right now!" Barriss ordered her troops as they begin falling back away from the Rancor.
The large creatures begin attacking the Clone soldiers, while also attacking their ATTE Walkers. Some of the soldiers got crushed or slashed by the creatures, but they didn't appear to try eating them. Barriss rushes over and saves some of her men as she leaped on the back of the Rancor. She took notice of some sort of device implanted in its head.
Most likely being controlled by the Separatist or General Arachnia. Barriss destroys the device, which caused the Rancor to fall to its knees and pass out. However, the moment she knocked it out, the other nine took notice and roared at her. This isn't good and she begins backing away.
The Clones attempt to help her, but even the blaster shots didn't seem to stop these creatures. Barriss noticed the blaster shots didn't even seem to faze the creatures. General Arachnia must have made their skin strong enough to endure blasters. She knows she can take them on, but not like this.
As they charged in at her, she used the Force to push them away. Just enough for her to get some distance.
"Commander have the men keep moving. I'll lure these creatures away," Barriss ordered as she tries to keep her men from getting killed.
She also used this chance to keep her men from seeing her transform so she can fight against these creatures much easier. Once she got far enough, she took out her Morpher and prepares to transform. When one of the Rancor threw a large tree at her. Barriss jumps out of the way but drops her Morpher in the process.
As she tries to look for it, she sees the Rancors have caught up to her and charged in. However, nine pink energy arrows shot over her and hits the nine Rancors. Barriss looks over and sees the shots came from Rachel, who has arrived as the Pink Ranger. Lux runs past Barriss in his Black Ranger uniform and jumps over before kicking one of the Rancors in the face, knocking it down.
"You need a hand, my lady?" Barriss looks over to see Rick in his Blue Ranger uniform and holding his hand out to her.
Barriss smiles and took his hand as she is helped up. "What took you all so long to get here," she asked softly as she uses the Force to bring her Morpher back to her.
"Apologies. But Alpha teleported us away from the fighting to make sure General Arachnia doesn't know we're here," said Rick as he sees one of the Rancors charging at them.
The Rancor swipes its large claws at them, but Rick caught the claw and throws the creature over him. The Rancor roars before it crashed into the ground, shaking the area.
"Mind giving us the short version of what's up with these Rancors?" Rick asked as he sees the others fighting the other eight Rancors.
"They're being controlled by some sort of device implanted on their heads. We have to destroy them," said Barriss as she uses her lightsaber to slash away the mind control device on the head of the Rancor, Rick took down. "Let's try doing it without seriously injuring them."
"You got it," said Rachel as she leaps up to the trees to avoid the two Rancor charging at her. She fires two energy arrows at them, and it destroys the devices on their heads.
Lux dodges the claws of the two other Rancors and leaps over before throwing his Battle Axe, hitting the device. He lands on the Rancor he attacked, while the other tries to grab him. Lux kicks the creature's hand away and took his weapon off the head. He then leaps up and kicks the creature under its chin.
The Rancor falls backwards and lands on its back, before Rachel fires an arrow to destroy the device. This leaves only four left as the four Rancor see what just happened.
The four begin trying to retreat, but Barriss runs over to stop them. "Its Morphin Time!" Barriss transforms into the Yellow Ranger and got out her two long swords before she leaps over.
Slashing on top of the heads of the devices on the heads of the Rancor before she lands in front of the path of the other two. She then uses the Force to knock the creatures back. They then tried to attack her, but she jumps over them before she throws her two weapons at the devices. Stabbing at them and freeing the Rancors from being controlled.
Barriss grabs her two weapons and is rejoined by the others. "Thanks for the save. You all made it just in time."
"Good thing too. It looks like the fog is staring to fade," said Rachel as she sees the sun slowly coming through.
Rick looks up at the mountain and using his helmet is able to see the enemy turrets preparing to fire. "This isn't good. If Ahsoka doesn't take the shield down soon, then your troops will be sitting ducks."
Barriss knows her friends are right, but she can't do much to stop this…unless? "What if we use our Zords to help deflect the attacks? Giving our troops time to get the Walkers out of range?"
Lux knew that could work since their Zords won't be harmed by the turrets. "You do realize the moment we do that we'll likely get the attention of General Arachnia's monster."
"Well, until that happens, we should use this chance to help protect the troops," said Barriss knowing they need to keep the troops from getting harmed. "I'll summon my Zord, so it can join yours. I have to return to my troops soon."
Rick understands and gives her a small nod. "Go help your troops and we'll watch your backs."
"Yeah! We won't let any harm come to them," said Rachel knowing their friend can count on them.
Barriss appreciates this and prepares to call on her Zord, when she realizes something. "Wait a minute. Where's Jake? Did he stay behind?"
Rachel shook her head in response. "He went to go help Ahsoka. At least, provide some backup in case she needs it."
Barriss knows Ahsoka can handle herself and will ask for help if she needs it. So, it does make sense for Jake to stay out of sight until she needs it. Maybe once they get inside the facility, it's when she will call on him for help. She really does hope though that General Arachnia doesn't really have a monster somewhere on here.
The last thing she wants is for any of their troops to get killed.
"All right. Let's do this then and let's hope Ahsoka is close to completing her goal," said Barriss as she begins to call on her Zord and wait to see when the shield will go down.
Meanwhile, Ahsoka and her troops continue making their way up the mountain. Heading towards a platform, that Ahsoka knew will lead them inside the monastery. Thanks to their new equipment, they made it up to the bottom of the platform faster than expected. There was just one thing left in their way, the Battle Droids that are protecting the platform.
Ahsoka motions for her Astromech, R9 to fly up to see what they're dealing with. The droid flies up just enough to begin seeing how many droids they had, while staying out of sight. The droid flies down and shows the enemy forces through hologram. Ahsoka and Captain Rex see the hologram, seeing the problem.
"Looks like a platoon of Battle Droids. A few Super Battle Droids and some Droideka. Not to mention a few blaster cannons. Not exactly good," said Captain Rex knowing they'd have to take out the cannons first, before taking out the rest of the enemy.
Even then, they have no cover and will be completely exposed. Even with their new equipment, they would still lose a few men.
Luckily, Ahsoka has an idea. "Rex, I know how we can take them all out. I'll go up to distract them, while you take the men around to the sides of the platform. Sneak up behind them and attack them."
"Are you crazy, general? They'll just shoot you the moment you show up," said Captain Rex who didn't like this plan already.
"Not if I do exactly what Anakin would do in a situation like this," Ahsoka replied while hinting to Rex what Anakin would do.
Captain Rex seemed confused at first, but soon realized what the general means. "General, you've got to be kidding me?"
"Does it look like I'm kidding?" Ahsoka replied showing she's clearly serious about this plan. "Don't worry. I'll be all right. Just make sure to get into position and be ready to attack. And try not to make any noises, okay?"
Ahsoka goes up to the platform and pressed her right foot on the bottom. She then pressed a button and activates the magnetism on the boots. To allow her to stick to the metal platform. She soon sticks her other foot on it and makes her way over to the edge of the platform.
She turns to Captain Rex, who begins going over the plan with the rest of the troops. She motions for R9 to stick with the captain before she begins taking a deep breath. If worse comes to worse, she has her Morpher. She soon leaps over and reveals herself to the droids.
"Hello there," said Ahsoka as the Battle Droids all aim their weapons at her, including the ones using the blaster cannons. "Whoa, whoa. Hold on a second. Hold your fire. I have come…to surrender."
The droids looked at each other, confused by what is going on. A Jedi has come to them…to surrender? This was something they really didn't expect to happen. Not that many of them are complaining though.
"Your forces are clearly too much for me and my men to handle. Truly, you are the superior army. Not even my Clone soldiers and my skills as a Jedi Knight stands a chance against your superior power. Not even Master Yoda himself would stand a chance against your forces and your great military leader," said Ahsoka as she kept up this act, which she picked up from Anakin.
She saw him do this a couple of times, once even with her standing next to him. He would complain though that she needs to work on her acting, which she thought wasn't that bad. Was a lot better than his acting at least. And at least, she won't take too long to keep this up until her soldiers, attack.
"So, it is with these thoughts in mind that I gladly surrender myself to the mercy of the Separatist forces," said Ahsoka as she sees Captain Rex and the others making their way to the platform.
Slowly sneaking up on the droids and even towards the cannons.
"And to prove it…" Ahsoka took out her two lightsabers slowly and kneels before the droids to extend her weapons to them. "Here, please take my lightsabers and bring me to your great military leader, who brought down the might of the Republic forces to their knees."
Three of the Battle Droids walk over towards Ahsoka, ready to take her weapons, and take her into custody. Ahsoka sees R9 send the signal to her and soon she ignites her lightsabers to slash at the droids. She then uses the Force to pull some of the Droideka droids to her then slashed them in half. The other droids prepared to open fire, but Captain Rex and his men threw some grenades over to them to blow them up.
They even took out the droids to take control of the cannons before they used them on the rest of the droids. Ahsoka leaps over so the soldiers won't worry about hitting her. Ahsoka deflects some of the attacks from the droids, but it wasn't for long. The Clones managed to take down the remaining droids until the last few were taken out.
Ahsoka sees the danger is over and deactivates her weapons. "Nicely done, boys. Just glad you made your move before they tried putting the cuffs on me."
"Well, some of the men thought it would make it more convincing if we let them do it, general," Captain Rex joked knowing they wouldn't put the general in danger like that. "Just glad your acting got better."
Ahsoka rolled her eyes at what Rex said but is just glad it all worked out well. "All right, R9. Get these doors open and let's get inside."
R9 understood and begins trying to open the doors. Ahsoka motions for the men to stand by the door and prepared for anything that might come out. Just because they took the platform, doesn't mean there aren't any droids left inside to try to stop them. She had Captain Rex and Fives by her side, while they wait for the doors to completely open.
Slowly the doors begin to open and already Ahsoka sensed something is off. She could feel it through the Force and knew something is there waiting for them. She didn't know what it is, but its not human. Its then her eyes widen as she pushes Rex and Fives out of the way as something flew out of the door.
It grabs Ahsoka and begins flying up into the air with her. Ahsoka tries to get free of the grip of this creature, which she got a good look at. It looked like a giant mosquito monster, but its eyes are glowing red and has a long needle on its face. It tries to stab her, but she moved out of the way and drives her knees into the gut of the creature.
It lets her go and she begins to fall, but Ahsoka activated her grappling tool to shoot towards the side of the building above the platform. She swings down and jumps down to the platform before activating her lightsabers. The monster flies towards the group as the Clones begin to open fire. Trying to shoot it down, but Ahsoka knew it was pointless.
"Fall back into the monastery!" Ahsoka ordered knowing they can't fight it, much less do any sort of damage with the weapons the Clone have.
"You heard the general! Move it!" Captain Rex ordered as the men begin heading inside, but the monster flew down towards them.
Ahsoka sees this and charges in before using the Force to knock it away. The monster is knocked away, but it landed on its feet on the edge of the platform. The monster turns towards Ahsoka and fires a red energy blast at her. She blocks it with her lightsabers, but the force of the blast sends her flying.
Captain Rex and a few Clones rush over to aid their general, while two go to the cannons. They begin using them to open fire on the creature, which seems to keep it at bay. Not enough to hurt it, but enough to keep it back. Rex and his men help grab Ahsoka before they help her to her feet.
They rush her towards the door as the Clones begin falling back. R9 begins closing the door, while the monster keeps walking towards them. Jesse throws a flash grenade at the monster, which blind it. Keeping it from catching up to them, while giving them time to finally make it inside.
R9 closed the door and locks it down to keep it from getting to them. The Clones and Ahsoka stood by waiting for the monster to try breaking through, but nothing seem to happen.
"You all right, general?" Captain Rex asked as Ahsoka nods in response.
"Just wasn't expect an encounter with one of General Arachnia's monsters," said Ahsoka as she begins letting Barriss know we're inside and about the monster.
She knows right now she can't really fight against it. Not without revealing to the others she's a Power Ranger. So, they'll need to try completing the mission and deal with this later. Unless the others deal with it, while they shut down the shield.
One of the soldiers heard something against the door. He begins leaning over to the door, trying to get a better sound. It sounds like something…tapping at the door. Very gently?
Jesse sees what the soldier is doing and goes over to him. "Soldier, stay away from the door!"
But it was too late. The monster's long needle nose pierced through the metal door and through the helmet of the Clone. The soldiers and Ahsoka all stood back as they heard the groaning from the soldier. Jesse goes to grab him but is kept back by the others when they saw something red flowing through the needle.
It was then they realized it was the soldier's blood. This monster is literally sucking out the blood from their own brother.
The monster pulls its needle from the soldier and dropped his body to the ground, dead. The monster soon begins opening the door with its own bare hands. The soldiers all stood back, with Ahsoka preparing to fight the monster. The monster was a lot stronger than she thought it was.
It also appears to be able to suck its victim's blood through its needle nose. This isn't good at all. She knew she'll need to be careful to avoid it from doing the same to her and the rest of her troops. But she knows she can't fight it like this.
The mosquito monster soon opens the door completely as its eyes begin to glow. "My name is Ka," the monster began to speak, while making small buzzing noises. "I serve my mistress, General Arachnia. And I have been tasked to kill all those who intrude this place. Whether they are Jedi, Clones, or even—"
"Power Ranger?" Ka turns around to see something flying towards it.
The monster leaps out of the way and avoids the attack before pushing itself back to get some distance from its foe. It looks over to see it's the Red Ranger, in its Battlizer. His wings extended to allow him to fly and to accelerate his speed. In his right hand, he held his sword that barely missed his foe.
Jake turns towards the monster, Ka and moves his blade towards it. "You want them so badly, you'll need to get through me, monster."
Ka growls softly wishing it had time to kill more of the Clones and the Jedi before the Red Ranger showed up.
Ahsoka and the Clones were just relieved that one of the Power Rangers showed up. And just in time too. The Clones cheered for the arrival of the Red Ranger. While Ahsoka and Rex are glad they won't have to fight the monster now.
"Your friend always has the best timing," said Captain Rex to Ahsoka, but quietly for the others not to hear them.
Ahsoka nods in agreement. "Better late than never," she replied back before she speaks loudly to the Red Ranger, while also speaking to him like she doesn't know who he is. "Thank you for your timely arrival, Red Ranger. Please keep this monster busy, while my men and I complete our mission."
Jake nods in response before summoning his shield as he got ready to fight. "Don't worry, my lady. I can handle this monster on my own. Please complete your mission and be careful. All of you."
Ahsoka nods before she turns to Rex and motions for him to get the others moving. "All right, men! Let's get going! Double time!" Captain Rex ordered as he has the men follow him to shut down the shield generator.
Ahsoka turns one last time to Jake, before she whispers for him to be careful. She soon took off to catch up to her men, leaving Jake alone to go all out with this monster.
The monster begins to laugh softly, while still making buzzing noises. "I was warned by my mistress about the new powers you Power Rangers have. I'm not worried though. Together, you are a threat, but alone? I will kill you all one-by-one and I will make my mistress happy."
Jake simply smiled under his helmet and shook his head. "You really shouldn't underestimate your opponent, monster. Because you'll be in for a nasty surprise."
Tatooine
Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and Master Windu prepared their forces to move out. After meeting up with Zane and gaining reinforcements, they now had a plan of attack. Across the large desert, is Jabba the Hutt's old palace. Now under the control of the Separatist forces.
Not far from their location, the Separatist droid factory. Making more droid soldiers and ready to be unleashed on this planet. The Jedi Masters know they'll have to take out the palace, but they'll have to try either capturing or destroying General Grievous. They received word from the Tusiken Raiders that he's on the planet with possibly one of General Arachnia's monsters.
Fortunately, Zane is with them and he'll help them take out Arachnia's monster. While also help them take out the five Krayt Dragons surrounding the desert. Protecting the palace and factory from intruders. Luckily for the Jedi, they have a plan.
"All right. Master Windu will go with the Tusken Raiders to help take down the droid factory, while I go with Kitster to take control of the palace," Master Kenobi begins going over the plan with everyone one more time. "Cody, you and your men will assist the others in securing the palace, while I engage General Grievous."
"What about General Arachnia's monster, general?" Commander Cody asked.
"I'll handle the monster," said Zane as he approached the others with the Tusken Raiders. "I'll need to make sure your troops don't get involved in my fight. I appreciate how brave you soldiers are, but this is my battle, and I don't want none of you getting hurt."
"Just make sure not to lower your guard," said Master Windu who knows Zane's power rivals that of Damien. "There's no telling what kind of surprise the enemy has waiting for us."
"I could say the same to you all to be careful too," said Zane as he removes his cloak and sets it down before he turns towards their destination. "I'll make the first move first to get the monster's attention. Once I take out the Krayt Dragons, attack the palace and factory hard. Don't hold anything back and try not to get killed, okay?"
Master Kenobi understood knowing right now their numbers are spread too thin. Zane told Obi-Wan how Nathan has stepped down as a Power Ranger, while the others are off on Teth to help Ahsoka and Barriss. So, this leaves only Obi-Wan and Zane on the planet. If they get in trouble, then they will be limited on who will come to help them.
"Try not to get killed either, otherwise I'll have to explain what happened to the others," said Master Kenobi before he extends his hand to Zane. "May the Force be with you."
Zane smiles at Obi-Wan and shook his hand back. "May the power protect you, my friend."
Zane soon begins stretching his arms and even pops his neck as he looks down from canyon. "Maximum effort," he whispered to himself before he leaps off and begins to morph. "Its Morphin time! Gold Ranger Power!"
*Gold Zeo Ranger theme*
Zane soon transforms into the Gold Ranger before he lands on the ground, doing a superhero landing. Zane created a large tremor that could be felt through the sand and begins to alert the Krayt Dragons. Zane begins seeing movement through the sands from afar and begins to smile. It looks like he caught the attention of the creatures.
Zane soon begins running towards the five Krayt Dragons. All on his own and without even summoning his Zord.
One begins to emerge from the sand and lets out a loud roar. It bares its fangs at Zane and opens wide to devoir him. Zane though begins using his powers to accelerate his speed before he leaps up into the air. The Krayt Dragon lifts its head up, but Zane jumps in to kick it right in the nose.
The force of the attack sends the creature flying out of the sand and falls backwards to the ground. Zane summons his Golden Power Staff and fires bolts of energy towards the belly of the creature, killing it. Zane lands on its dead body, before seeing the four Krayt Dragons charging in from all four sides. Zane leaps towards the one coming in from his left and lands in front of it.
Zane stops the creature from charging at him, despite how much bigger it is in size. The creature tries to open its mouth, but Zane punches out one of its teeth throws it into the air. He got on to where he knocked the tooth out as the Krayt Dragon tries to bring its mouth down on him. Zane though keeps its from mouth from closing with his free hand and fires another bolt of energy blast from his staff directly down the throat of the creature, killing it as well.
Zane jumps backwards before he jumps up high in the air. Just in time to see the tooth coming down. He then kicks it right towards one of the Krayt Dragons exposed eye, causing it to roar in pain. Zane teleports himself towards the location of the creature before jamming the end of his staff into the tooth and unleashed a bolt of energy through the staff, through the tooth, into the head of the creature, killing it. Zane pulls his weapon out and sees one of the last two Krayt Dragons charging at him.
Zane leaps out of the way as the creature opened its mouth wide and bites down on the dead Krayt Dragon. Zane sees the second one coming in towards him spitting out something to try to stop him. Zane jumps high into the air to avoid this and lands on the head of the creature. It begins raising its upper body out of the sand and roars loudly.
Trying to shake him off as Zane tries to use his staff. But the creature slams its body down, causing him to lose his grip on his staff and it falls to the ground. Zane knew this isn't good as he tries to hold on. He then sees the other Krayt Dragon turning its attention from the dead Krayt Dragon, back to him.
He got an idea, but its one he really isn't going to like. The Krayt Dragon leaps its upper body off the ground and opens its mouth wide open before it comes down on Zane. But also, down on the other Krayt Dragon. Crushing its head to the sand ground, before biting down hard on it.
Nothing seems to happen for a moment, until a burst of gold power begins emitting through the mouth of the creature before it explodes. Killing both Krayt Dragons and finishing them off.
*End of theme*
Zane begins coughing loudly as the remains of the Krayt Dragons covered much of his body. Even with the suit on, he could still smell it through his helmet. He begins wiping his hands clean of the mess, while regretting what he just did. He knew it would work by channeling his power through his body and then unleashing it into an attack.
He just wishes he had done it a little differently than this.
"I'm going to need a long hot bath after this," said Zane to himself before he sends a signal to the others that he took care of the Krayt Dragons.
Not that the others needed the signal at all, after what they just saw. Almost all the Clones and some of their allies looked on in shocked at what just happened. Not only did Zane just take out all of the Krayt Dragons on his own, but he did it in a way they didn't expect at all. Only both Jedi Masters and the Tusken Raiders didn't seem that shocked at all with what happened.
"H-How is this possible?" Kitster asked while his Rodian friend Wald looks just as shocked as he is. "He took down five Krayt Dragons on his own. Like they were nothing."
Master Kenobi knew this was the power Zane possessed. Its why he was the only one who could truly take on Damien. Yes, the others have more power than they did before. But he could tell that Zane was still on a whole other level.
"Cody, I believe it's time we move out," said Master Kenobi as he snaps his Clone Commander out of what happened.
Commander Cody quietly clears his throat and nods in response. "Y-Yes general. All right, men! Let's move out!"
The Clones all snapped out of it and begin getting to the Gunships. Preparing to launch their attack against the Separatist forces. The Tusken Raiders and the rebel soldiers all begin following the Clones. While Master Kenobi and Windu look over to see where Zane is at.
"Now that we've gotten their attention, let's see what move our enemy will make," said Master Windu knowing they've shown their hand, now its time for the Separatist to do the same.
Master Kenobi nods in agreement. "Let's just hope we're ready for it."
Meanwhile
Inside Jabba's palace, General Grievous sees the enemy have taken out the five Krayt Dragons. He watched the fighting through some of the probe droids in the area. He could see everything that they see and saw the fighting taking place. With only one Power Ranger going up against these creatures.
It was very surprising to the cyborg general how one Power Ranger was able to take out five of these creatures. It seems he underestimate their power. They are far more powerful than he had originally had thought. Still, it matters not.
They have the number's advantage against the Jedi and their forces. He's confident they'll succeed in their mission, but he knows he'll need to ensure they don't succeed at the factory. He begins increasing the defenses of the factory. While he prepares himself to defend the palace.
"General," Grievous turns towards the beetle monster, who walks towards him. "Do you mind enhancing the image of the Power Ranger?"
General Grievous scowls a little, before he begins doing as the other requested and shows a better image of the Power Ranger that just attacked them. The monster's eyes widen and sees who it is.
"It seems the leader of the Power Rangers has graced us with his presence," said the beetle monster as he chuckled softly. "My mistress will be pleased to hear this."
General Grievous was shocked to hear this and sees the image more closely to see it is the Gold Ranger that his master told him about. "If this is true, then I must inform Count Dooku about this."
"No," said the beetle monster as he begins rubbing his claw hands together. "This is exactly what my mistress has been waiting for. Now, we have a chance to not only destroy Zane, but uncover where his base is located. I will contact her and ask her permission to engage him in combat."
General Grievous begins to laugh at what the monster is doing, knowing its suicide. "You are a fool. What makes you think you're a match against Zane?"
The monster couldn't help but laugh back before he turns to the cyborg general. "Because my mistress gave me an ability to use against a Power Ranger to help weaken them. Now is my chance to use it against Zane. You stay here and make sure the enemy doesn't take the palace. Understand?"
With that, the beetle monster soon left and takes off to go after Zane. Grievous growled angrily and was prepared to speak out, when he heard a familiar voice speak to him.
"No, let it go, general," the voice is that of a woman, who doesn't appear to be in the room, but her voice can be heard speaking to the cyborg general. "Use this opportunity to ensure the facility falls to our enemies and make sure General Arachnia fails here too. Understand?"
General Grievous' eyes glowed purple for a moment before he nods in response. "I understand, my mistress," and with that, the cyborg general ignites his lightsabers and turns to the droids who are still working in the room. General Grievous locks down the room and charges in on the droids.
That's the end of the chapter and it looks like someone is in the mind of General Grievous. It couldn't be General Arachnia, right? So, who could it be? Who would have control over our cyborg general?
It also looks like Zane is letting loose again after his big fight with Damien last season. Zane taking down five Krayt Dragons on his own and doing it with ease. Still, will it be enough against whatever our beetle monster is up to? Will he be ready for it?
Also, it looks like the others made it in time to help their friends. Now that they're here, will they be able to take back Teth from the Separatist? Will this new monster be too much for them to handle? Or think Jake will be able to handle it on his own without the others joining in?
Tune in next time to find out and thanks for the support guys and I appreciate the reviews. Please be patient for the next chapter and if you all liked this then please leave some reviews. Just no flame reviews please. Also, thank you to much to my friend for his help on the story and glad its all going well.
Take care everyone, be safe, and see you all next time.
