Author's Note: With the way the midterm elections turned out and the way things in Iraq may end up. I have to finish this chapter now. Plus Ra'akone won't start the next chapter of Mana Warriors if I don't finish this.

Part 3: End of War

The Rangers aren't doing so well against T-Bone. In fact he's using the same tactics as the previous Psycho Red, to read their minds and know what their trying to do.

Tim rushed at T-Bone with his daggers in front of him. T-Bone just struck Tim across the chest with his sword and kicked Tim away. Amanda and Takeshi rushed in next and met the same fate as Tim. The Rangers tried to figure out a way to get rid of him.

"Any ideas guys?" Tessz asked his fellow Red Rangers.

"I got one idea." Tim said. Then he stood up and started to glow orange.

"What he is he doing?" Takeshi asked. Kakuti only shrugged.

The answer was clear when Tim began to catch ablaze. The fire engulfed him and took the form of a bird.

"A firebird?" Leo looked on in amazment. "He can transform into a firebird?"

"He never did this before." Michael said from the Deltaship. "I was right. He no longer needs the Silver Eagle Wild Force Zord. For his Angel Gem has adapted to his DNA and can give him even more power."

"Is that bad?" Cruger asked Michael.

"The exact opposite. It's good that he has that kind of power." Michael replied. "It means the other Angel Gems have adapted to their owner's DNA. The Armageddon Rangers can now defeat anyone who tries to destroy Earth."

The Phoenix that Tim became fired a powerful fireball at T-Bone. Who of course is sent flying backwards. This gives the Rangers a chance to retreat. Which they do.

---

"Rangers, I know the fight with T-Bone didn't go well for you." Cruger said. "Of course if Tim didn't change when he did. You all would've been dead."

"We owe Tim our thanks guys." Amanda said.

The Ranger congratulated Tim on saving their lives. But one question remained, how were they going to destroy the cannon?

"I know we have to destroy that cannon." Cruger continued. "Tonight is the test fire of it. If we don't stop it now, then we'll be too late."

Jason walked in with some bad news. "The President of the United States just called us. He said that they've located the cannon and won't need us to destroy it. He doesn't want us to destroy it."

"Is he out of his mind!?" Cruger let out a snarl. "That damned idiot! It's going to be a massacre!"

"What can we do?" Kakuti asked. "We can't defy the orders of the president."

"Oh yes we can." Tim said. "I'm not leaving this to those troops. They'll be killed for sure and the death count will be even higher than what the American people feared. Even me. I'm not a Power Ranger because of fate. I'm a Power Ranger because I made a decision to protect the innocent people of this planet. Like our predecessors. We've made the choice to save this world. We made the choice to protect it from space aliens, demonic forces from Hell and even terrorists that want to ruin everyone's way of life. Now when the leader of the free world doesn't want us involved, we all just give up like that? I don't know about you guys but I'm not going to let those Purge bastards get away with the slaughter of hundreds of U.S. soldiers. I'm going to Baghdad and I'm going to kick the Righteous Purge's asses so hard. That al-Qaida will feel it and when they do. They better damn give up because the Power Rangers will be after them next. Alpha and omega! Beginning and end!"

Tim morphed and walked off the Megaship. Tessz stood up. "Hey I may be discharged from the military for doing this. But I'm with Tim. Ranger on! Task Force Zordon!"

Once Tessz left the ship, Amanda stood up. "I'm not even in the military. So I won't suffer any consequences for my actions. Special Forces! State of Emergency!"

Once Amanda left it was Leo's turn. "Hey I'll do whatever it takes to secure a powerful relic. Relic Hunter! Engage!"

Takeshi was next. "I've faced hundreds of demons. But never a fearful terrorist group. I will fight this battle with honor. Eye of the storm! Ranger form!"

Kakuti was the last person to stand up. "If you're in, then so am I. Red lion!"

The six Red Rangers stood out into the desert night. Wondering on how they should strike.

"I'd say we should go to Baghdad with the Deltaship in Megazord mode." Takeshi said. Tim thought about it.

"Kakuti and I have our own Zords." Tim said. "We'll stay close to you in our own Zords."

"With that Angel Zord you transform into Tim?" Kakuti asked and Tim shook his head.

"I've got one better." Tim then contacted Tony and the others in Ohio. "Tony, I need you guys to offer your powers so I can use the Apocalypse Mode."

---

Tony and the other Armageddon Rangers gathered outside on the balcony. They morphed and together activated their Apocalypse Mode.

---

Back in Iraq, Tim transformed into his Apocalypse Mode armor. Then he summoned the Red Horseman Zord and boarded it.

"Savannah Battlizer!" Kakuti shouted as his Battlizer armor appeared. "Savannah Zord and Red Lion Zord!"

The Red Lion Mana Zord arrived and went into guardian mode. The Savannah Zord became the armor for this new Lion Zord.

"Don't guys. I've got a special something for the Deltaship." Jason said. "Andros can hear me?"

"Hear you loud and clear Jason." Andros said. "Are you ready for the Delta Astro Megazord?"

"We sure are."

"On my way."

Soon the Astro Megaship Mk II arrived and the remaining Rangers climbed aboard the Astro Megaship. Andros was already morphed and ready to combine the two Zords.

"Let's do this." Andros exclaimed and the two Zords combined into one. Now there were three Zords to finish this fight.

"Let's lay it onto our enemies." Tim said.

---

U.S. soldiers gathered near the building that the test was going to take place on. Mortician watched them from above with binoculars. "Those idiots think they can destroy our cannon. Well let's show them the awesome firepower that will destroy the United States."

Mack aimed the cannon at a group of troops at the rear of the gathering. He fired the cannon and it shot out a purple blast of energy, which killed about twenty soldiers on the ground. He laughed. "It works."

"Good." Gunther said. "Now show off the Psycho Megazord."

The MiB boat in the Persian Gulf transformed into a large mech called the Psycho Megazord. T-Bone was piloting it. He piloted the Megazord to Baghdad. Which took the troops by surprise.

"Fire one!" T-Bone fired two missles at the troops on the ground. Only the missles were destroyed by the Astro Delta Megazord. The troops saw the Rangers arrive and cheered them on.

"Crap!" T-Bone shouted. The Red Horseman Zord ignited it's sword and drove into the ground. The fire then traveled on the ground and caused little damage to the Psycho Megazord. Then the Lion Zord fired some energy blasts and did little damage to the Psycho Megazord.

"Looks like it's our turn then." Andros said. "Fire!"

The two hands of the Megazord flew at the Psycho Megazord and pierced it's chest. T-Bone had to eject or he would be caught in the explosion.

"I'm out of here!" T-Bone then vanished. The Psycho Megazord was finally destroyed. The Rangers then lept out of their Zords and onto the roof. They all got into a fighting stance.

"Forget it!" Greed said. "They've won this round, but we'll be back."

The bad guys teleported away, leaving only the Rangers and the cannon. Tim, Leo, Andros and Kakuti moved the cannon away from the ledge of the roof. Leo turned it off and pulled out the Purple Crystal. He then handed to Kakuti.

"Go on take it." Leo said as Kakuti took it form him. "Your Ranger team would need it more than mine. But don't let it fall into the wrong hands."

"Thank you. I won't." Kakuti said.

"I think there are some people that want to thank us." Andros said as the Rangers walked toward the ledge. They looked down and waved at all of the people cheering for them.

---

Tim sat in the living room of the Carpenter Estate with the newspaper in his hands. ON the front page was a picture of the Psycho Megazord being dealt the death blow. The headline said: Thank you for everything, Power Rangers!

Tim smiled at the headline. The other Rangers in his team smiled at him.

---

Kakuti is in Africa. He throws his spear and kills the lion that eluded him when he first found his Mana Crystal. Kakuti took the lion back to his village and got ready for his flight back to Samoa.

---

Tessz is telling the other Task Force Zordon Rangers about what happened in Iraq. He is also playing a game off pool with the Blue Ranger of his team.

---

Despite failing to bring the Purple Crystal to the UNAS HQ in Angel Grove, California. Leo never received a lecture. His guess is that Mr. X understood the crystal going to another Ranger team. As long as the crystal doesn't fall into the wrong hands.

---

Takeshi was meditating his his quarters. When Sam, Jeff, Jade and Amanda disturbed him with a piece of grass tickling his nose. He gets up and chases after them. Hi grandfather Akuma just groans.

---

Amanda returned to her school as a hero. Of course she is a hero to the whole school. She is after all a Power Ranger. The others Bobby, Danny, Tyrone, Kyle and Star welcomed her home. Amanda puts her bookbag and books that she doesn't need in her locker. Then pulls out a letter given to all seven Rangers that particpated in the battle in Baghdad. The letter read:

Dear Power Rangers,

Even though I ordered you to leave Iraq, you went ahead to save the world again. I guess you guys just do what you have to do, regardless of orders. Regardless of my orders. You still stopped the Righteous Purge from taking more lives. Thank you from the very bottom of my heart Power Rangers. You made the United States as well as the whole world proud of you. Let's hope you don't get dragged into something like this again. I don't think we can take this kind of battle anymore.

Signed,

The President of the United States

Amanda folded the letter up and put it in her locker. Then she grabbed the books she needed, locked her locker and went to class.

Amanda thought about what it takes to make the Power Rangers to save the world against all of the odds stacked against them. As Nick Russell, the Red Mystic Ranger, once said about courage. It takes courage to save the world and courage to stand up for what is right. Amanda figures that it takes courage to become a Power Ranger, the defenders of the universe.

Author's Comment: Well Eternal Red is done. Don't worry there will be another Red Ranger team up for Relic Hunters. But it'll be the canon Red Rangers, like Tommy, Conner, Shane and Jason. So don't worry about a thing. I hope you enjoyed this story. I was going to include all of the Rangers from the six Ranger teams, then have them storm Baghdad in their Zords. But I went against it because that is a lot of Zords. Can you imagine the earthquake those Zords can create just by running towards Baghdad? I sure can. Well leave a review. See you all later.
