Xolicernic returned to the present time appearing at a secluded area, and was injured from his battle with the group of rangers, and from the hit he had taken from Corey McKnight.
"Ugh…That plan may not have worked, but I have more. Many more, and as long as I have the Time Window Abbinus made I can go back in time as often as I want." He says and was about to go back farther, but before he could he was blasted in the back.
Turning around he saw the six rangers unmorphed AV with her blasters in her hands having been the one that shot at him.
"Woah there buddy. Just where and when do you think you're going? Just surrender in a timely fashion and this doesn't have to end with the big hand coming down on you." Adam said with a grin as Leo groans.
"Seriously Adam? Time puns?" Leo asked as Adam just shrugs. Xolicernic took this moment to draw his weapon and run at the teens who role out of the way dodging.
When Sora dodges she leg sweeps Xolicernic who nearly falls to the ground, but using his psychic abilities catches himself before delivering a punch to Sora hitting her squarely on the head nearly knocking her out.
Cassie growls and jumps forward kicking Xolicernic with enough force behind it to knock him back a couple feet.
"You okay there Sora?" Cassie asked helping Sora to her feet as she was still recovering from the punch.
"Y-Yeah. Just peachy." She says as the others gather around her.
"Your pathetic red ranger. A female should never deserve the honor of being the red ranger. There are many more deserving than you, Corey, and that pathetic excuse of a leader for the Jurrasic Squad rangers." Xolicernic says.
Sora glared at him angry for what he was saying about Corey and especially Jared. She hadn't told the others yet about the present time Jared talking with her after their first battle with the dino monsters. She also hadn't told them she had a talk with the Jared in the past.
-FLASHBACK-
Sora sighed as she was bound hands and feet and in a cell separate from Jared, Corey, and Artie "Why did that hand grab me? It looked like it was going for Levi, but it took me instead. Sometimes seems like I have extremely bad luck." Sora thought.
"So you're a future red ranger right?" Jared asked from the cell near her and she nods.
"Yeah, but seems like lots of things keep happening as of late. So much for repaying you for what you did for me." She says as Jared looks at her confused by what she says.
She noticed this and realizes her mistake before laughing a bit "Sorry. It's just that well…you kind of gave me some help when I needed it. Or you will." She says
Jared nods "Okay, but I'm more worried about what they have planned for us." He said as Sora starts to try and undo her bound wrists.
"Don't worry. I'm sure we're going to be out of this situation soon." She replied.
They had managed to escape a few hours later, but had to leave Jared and Corey behind while her and Artie got away to tell the others what had happened while they were kept prisoner. When they got back Sora had honestly expected the groups to start blaming one another for what had happened, but luckily nothing had happened.
The group had also been lucky enough to meet the Spirit Warrior rangers as well as Luna and Ester who are Unity Force Gold and Silver respectively as well as being AV's blood related aunts.
What followed was arriving to the scene, and when the group had morphed Ester made a bright flash giving the Spirit Rangers time to morph and jump in as well as making an illusion causing them all to look like they were in Jared or Corey's ranger suit.
The group had even bore witness to Corey transforming into his guardian form and defeated the hybrid beast single handily and even forced Xolicernic to make a tactical retreat back to the present.
-FLASHBACK END-
Sora's hands balled up into fists before she calms down and smirks "Well if you think I'm so undeserving then come get my morpher fugly." She taunts as she and the others morph into their Lore Keeper suits.
As Xolicernic ran at them they dodged and there morphers shined each one turning to the Music Force ranger of their respective color. They look at each other before nodding to each other.
"Unlock the Legend!" They all shout and they were covered in a bright light
-Music Force Morphing Sequence-
The six rangers stood on a stage that was covered in red, blue, yellow, green, black, and pink with various genres of music playing and backgrounds mixed behind them.
There suits became a solid color for each of theirs with a white belt while gold and silver music note armor adorned their chests. The rangers helmets changed and on each an instrument like visor took place of their normal visor (A electric guitar for Sora, a clarinet for AV, a saxophone for Leo, a banjo for Alvin, a bass drum for Adam, and a guitar for Cassie).
A music saber then appeared as each take hold of them before they each posed.
-End Morphing Sequence-
Xolicernic looks on unimpressed at the Lore Keepers transformation.
The rangers ran forward at Xolicernic Cassie and AV getting there first and in unison tried to strike at him with the music sabers, but he stopped them with his telekinetic powers and threw them back.
Sora thought a moment before getting an idea of how to handle Xolicernic and possibly destroy the Time Window and grins under her helmet.
"Hey Askew! Is that the only thing you know how to do?" She taunts as Xolicernic turns around grabbing a large rock with his powers and hurls it in the directions of where the red ranger was at.
"That is not my name! It is Xolicernic, and you will do well to remember it ant." He snarled as Sora was slowly powering up the Music Saber as were the others.
"Sorry didn't hear you there Askew. Or do you prefer Christopher?" she asked in a honey sweet tone annoying Xolicernic who grabbed the nearest thing with his powers and flung it at her. This time it was a tree which she barely managed to avoid.
What she hadn't expected was Xolicernic to come rushing at her at the same time he threw the tree to which he gave her an extremely powerful blow to her stomach that would ordinarily rupture something, but thanks to the suit and the powers it had she would at most not be able to eat anything solid for the next few days.
Sora falls to the ground one hand clutching her stomach the other her saber "So…that's all it takes…to get you mad?" she asked laughing a bit before he kicks Sora to the ground.
"Don't test me human." Xolicernic snarled as Sora starts laughing confusing him.
"What's so funny?!" He demanded as Sora got up holding the saber with both hands.
"You buddy. In your anger…you were so…busy with me…that you forgot that…I don't work alone." She says between breaths back away from him.
"Blues Blast!"
"Jazz Swing Slash!"
"Banjo Barrage!"
"Heavy Metal Fury!"
"Hyper Active Hip Hop!"
Hearing the other rangers Xolicernic whips his head around seeing beams of blue, yellow, green, black, and pink coming at him from the music sabers.
"Rock and Roll Music Blast!" Sora shouts from in front of Xolicernic swing the saber causing a beam of red energy to hit him as well. The resulting explosion caused Sora to be thrown back, and when it cleared Xolicernic was still there.
"W-What was even in the point of that? I'm still here." Xolicernic taunts as each ranger under there helmet grinned.
"True, but I believe that wasn't our intention Xolicernic." Alvin says pointing at his arm.
Confused Xolicernic looks and his eyes widen before glaring at the rangers. While the attack did manage to do some damage to him he was still pretty much unharmed. What he didn't count on was the explosion destroying the Time Window.
"You…you…" He started as Sora went to join her team and then turns to face Xolicernic the group preparing to unleash the guardian mode they had seen Corey go into. Xolicernic sees this and decides it best to cut his losses and retreat for now.
Sora looked at the others and they all powered down to their civilian clothes.
"Well I think that takes care of this time travel business. With his Time Window gone there's no way he can travel back in time to cause any more problems." Adam says putting his hands behind his head and smirking.
AV shrugged "Maybe, but can't exactly say for sure if it's done or not. There's always going to be someone out there good or bad that is crazy enough to mess with time." She says.
"…So what does that make Maya?" Leo asked causing the others to chuckle a bit as it was Maya that made the TWA.
Sora shakes her head smiling at them "Well guys I think it might be for the best if we head home. We've had an extremely long day. Between fighting the dino duo, time travel, and fighting alongside old rangers I'm exhausted." Sora says to them all.
"Yeah I'm with Sora on that. Later guys." Leo says putting his hands in his pockets and walking off.
"See you tomorrow everyone." Alvin says and walks on home Adam following as they lived near each other.
"Good night." Cassie says leaving as well and AV does the same.
Sora began her own walk home and was thinking. The trip to the past they had met several veteran rangers from various teams, but what concerned her was that two family friends who were practically family had been rangers in the past.
"Did mom and dad even know that Zara and Tia were rangers? No they couldn't have, but then again…no they wouldn't keep something like that a secret from me." She thought and was soon home. When she walked in both of her parents were in the front room waiting for her this making her slightly nervous.
"Uhh…hey mom, dad. Am I in trouble or something?" She asked as both shake their head and Rena smiles at Sora.
"Sweetie I know we haven't told you a few things, but we have something important to tell you now." Rena says to her putting a hand on her stomach.
Sora noticed this and looks at them wide eyed "No way…Mom are you?" she asked surprised.
Zane nods "She is. You're going to be a big sister Sora." He tells her and Sora squeals and goes up hugging them forgetting all about what she thought earlier.
Meanwhile at the villains lair Zisko in his armored form had returned holding something in his hands and gave it to Diablo.
"So you finally found it. Excellent job Zisko. Now go." He ordered and Zisko left.
Diablo looked at the object and couldn't help but give a small grin.
The object was a simple old urn. Yet engraved on it and going around was the japanese symbols for Fire, Water, Light, Earth, Air, Metal, Darkness, and Lightning.
Very few people knew what was contained inside the urn, and Diablo knew exactly what was in it because back before he was bound to bone he had been in charge of writing down the events that had occurred involving that particular being.
Diablo began to give a low laugh. He had no intention of holding back anymore against the rangers, and even if he had to resort to a former ranger teams old enemy to deal with his current pest problem than so be it.
That's the end of another Interlude. Now I know many of you may have been expecting an actual chapter/episode. No worries I am writing out the next episode and I will try to have it up in two weeks max, but I can't exactly promise you all that I will. So until next time this has been decode 9.
