The battle between Dai Shi, Master Finn, and the rangers commenced. And even though Dai Shi was surrounded, he managed to keep the five of them at bay.
Lily gripped her Jungle Bow tightly as she ran at Dai Shi. "Jungle Bow!!" She shouted. She swung powerfully at Dai Shi multiple times, but Dai Shi was fast—but Lily was faster. So she began to swing her bow around twice as fast. She had managed to hit his left shoulder, but his armor allowed for little damage. Lily gasped in shock of his power. He then grabbed the bow that rested on his shoulder, it came right out of Lily's hands. He turned the bow horizontally, then put in front of Lily to trap her.
"End of the line, little cheetah!" he said into her ear, then he jumped and kicked her, sending her and her bow flying. She crashed hard in to the dirt. When Theo saw this, he was furious.
"Lily!!" he cried as he reached out for her. He then looked to Dai Shi, "You'll pay for that!" he said with rage.
"Oh, really?" Dai Shi taunted.
Theo ran at him and swirled his tonfa around at Dai Shi. Being the quick lion that he was, he caught one of the tonfa between his left elbow and knee. Theo tried to think fast, he swung his free tonfa at Dai Shi, but Dai Shi slashed it with his lion like claws, sending it flying. Theo grew worried. Dai Shi saw the airborne tonfa and was able to catch it. He used it to slash Theo twice across the chest. He staggered backwards and tried to stop by Lily. Dai SH threw the tonfa and it landed next to Theo.
"Who's next?" Dai Shi said looking around. Dominic ran up fast.
"How about me? Can you handle a little Rhino power?" Dominic said with confidence.
Dai Shi watched him come closer. "I know I can!" Dai Shi boasted. Dominic gripped his Rhino Blade tightly.
"Rhino Blade Stampede!" Dominic said as he slashed his orange blade around. Now Dai Shi was the one who had to think fast. He saw the blade closing in on him and he only had a few seconds to react. He knew what to do. Dai Shi began firing purple orbs of energy very rapidly at Dominic. The orbs hit against him like a machine gun. Sparks flew out of his ranger suit. The blasts had sent him reeling back and he crashed into a tree. He yelled loudly from the pain that filled his body. With that, Dai Shi glance over at the only two remaining—RJ and Finn.
"Are the father and son ready to be defeated?" asked in a deep and evil tone. Finn and RJ got into fighting stances.
"It's time to out a stop to all of this! Ready, dad?" RJ asked.
"Ready, son!" Finn responded. Then the two dashed at Dai Shi—RJ from the left, Finn from the right. Dai Shi blocked the punches and kicks being thrown at him by the two of them. It wasn't all that easy for him, because Finn and RJ were both masters of sorts. RJ was getting frustrated, so he jumped back. RJ opened his Morpher.
"Wolf beams!!" he shouted with fury and began firing a slew of beams at his opponent. All Dai Shi did was let out a little evil chuckle. Dai Shi leapt out of the way of the beams, causing the beams to hit Master Finn. Finn fell to his knees and let out a cry. RJ quickly ran to his father.
"Dad! Are you okay? I'm so sorry!!" RJ said he felt terrible. RJ helped his father to his feet.
"It's…it's okay, son. I'm fine." Finn said weakly. He was a little shaken up, but at least he was fine. RJ helped his father rest against a tree.
"Maybe you should sit this one out, dad." RJ said then turned and glared at Dai Shi. Fury filled his eyes. All Dai Shi could so was cackle.
"Aw, did the wolf hurt his daddy? Some shark warrior you turned out to be." Dai Shi said. RJ didn't respond to Dai Shi's snide comments. All he could do was let out a roar of anger. RJ then leapt into the air and fired his Wolf Beams faster than he ever had. The beams couldn't penetrate Dai Shi's armor, and once the smoke cleared, Dai Shi stood there and shook his head. "The wolf just doesn't learn." He said to himself. All of a sudden, all of the beams RJ had previously fired were being shot back at him. Dai Shi had made them ricochet off of his armor. RJ fell and rolled next to his father. Finn quickly ran to his son's aid.
"RJ!!" Finn cried out in worry. RJ staggered to his feet.
"Ugh. I'm alright, dad." RJ said with a pained voice. Dai Shi looked over all of those in which he had defeated.
"Pathetic. That was almost too easy." He said cockily.
"Well, it's about to get a little tougher!" a familiar voice shouted from the distance.
Dai Shi looked all around him. "Who's there?!" Then, the Strike Rider zipped by and the Red Ranger slashed him hard across the chest with his Shark Saber. It was Casey and his trusty Shark Sabers.
Dai Shi hit the ground but was quickly up again. Casey leapt off of the Strike Rider. The Red Ranger and Dai Shi stared each other down. Dai Shi glared at the Red Ranger before him.
"You?! How'd you escape my prison?! And the bracelet…it's gone!!" Dai Shi said outraged.
Casey formed a fist and looked proudly at it. "Gotta love tiger strength!"
The others watched from a safe distance, all were leaning on one another.
"It's Casey!!" Lily said happily taking a few steps forward.
"He's back!!" Theo added. Casey looked over to his friends and teammates.
"Back in more ways then one! You guys okay?" Casey asked as he ran over to them. They were so glad to see their leader back in red.
"We are now," RJ said as he dusted himself off, "so…you remember everything?"
Casey nodded and patted RJ's shoulder. "You know it! How could I forget you guys? You're my best friends!"
"As touching as this little reunion is, I'm still going to destroy you!" Dai Shi called out to them. All of the rangers got into a fighting stance. They were weak, but Casey being back made them a little stronger.
"So, Casey, any particular way to get out of this?" Dominic asked looking over to him.
"I may." Finn answered then he stood beside Casey. "Casey, equip both of your Shark Sabers, connect them at the ends, then spin them around as fast as you can, got it?" Finn instructed.
"Whatever you say, master!" Casey answered. Meanwhile, Dai Shi grew impatient and made his way to the team. Casey took out both of his Shark Sabers.
"Shark Sabers combine!" Casey shouted as he connected the sabers at the ends.
"Great, now spin it as fast as your arms will allow!" Finn said as he did the same with his Shark Sabers. Casey watched and followed Finn's technique. The two spun the weapons quickly, but Finn was going a lot faster than Casey. Casey was fast, but not as fast as Finn.
"Faster, Casey!" Finn yelled as he twirled his sabers about.
"I'm trying, I'm trying!" Casey cried as he tried desperately to spin faster. But little did they know, their time was up. Dai Shi had made it to him and Finn and he slashed Casey across the chest, like he had done to him before. He flew back a couple of feet and grabbed his chest. Finn ran to him and handed him his weapon back.
"Try again! I know you can do it!" Finn encouraged him. Casey looked to the weapon, then to Finn.
"I know I can too." He answered. He stood to his feet. He had made it this far, and wasn't going to fail now.
"Oh how touching." Dai Shi said in disgust as he began to form a huge ball of purple energy. Finn and Casey saw this and began to spin their weapons once more. This time, the Red Ranger had enough power to keep up with Master Finn.
"That's great! Now focus all of your energy on the weapon and throw it!" Finn ordered. Him and Finn let out a shout of effort and both hurled their weapons at Dai Shi.
"Double Shark Fin Attack!!" the two shouted as they fired their weapons. Dai Shi was hit with a large gush of water as well as their weapons. The impact threw him yards. When he finally hit the ground, he demorped and was groaning loudly. Casey looked at his hands in amazement.
"Whoa! I didn't even know I could do that!" Casey shouted happily. The others ran beside him and Finn.
"We knew you could! Great job, Casey!" Lily cheered as she patted him on the back.
"Yeah, we knew you had it in you!" Dominic complimented. RJ approached his dad and patted his shoulder.
"You did great too, dad." RJ said with a smile.
"Well, thanks, son. This old sharks still got a few tricks left in him!" Finn laughed.
"Thanks you guys, for trying to save me, and you Master Finn for making me become stronger." Casey said. Finn gave a small nod. Then the rangers had a small laugh of relief. The, they turned their attention to Dai Shi who was leaning weakly against a tree. He was barely able to stand.
"Come on you guys. Let's go before he gets his second wind." Theo stated as he noticed Dai Shi glaring evilly at them. Then the rangers walked off. Dai Shi wanted to go after them and make them pay, but he didn't have it in him. He slid down the tree and fell to his knees. He panted loudly—he was exhausted. Then, Camille saw him and ran to him. She was still hurt from her battle with Casey. She kneeled beside him.
"Dai Shi! Are you okay?" She asked worriedly.
"No." he answered coldly. "I won't be okay until those rangers are forever destroyed." Camille was stunned by the evil in his voice as she hung onto him.
