AN: All right, I'm back with the next chapter of our story. With Finals coming up, I thought I'd update as soon as I could for you guys to enjoy. I know its not exactly the best time of year to update, but hey you gotta make due with what you have right? Here's chapter 9 of Revelations of Silver.
Jack's Back
After a week of recovery Jack stepped into the SPD Command Center in a new uniform. The Red Ranger walked casually up to the center counsel and announced his presence.
"What's new Commander?" he asked.
"Ah Cadet Landers its good to have you back." The Commander turned to face him.
"Yeah well after being laid up for about a week, its good to be back." Jack said.
The Red Ranger popped his neck and shoulders reliving about a week's worth of tension on his underused joints and muscles.
"So how do you feel?" asked Kat.
"I feel great. Though Syd was threatening to tie me down if I didn't stay in bed. She actually tried to at one point." He told them.
"So do you feel like resuming active Ranger duty?" asked Cruger.
"Are you kidding me? Check this out."
Jack did a series of punches and spinning kicks proving he was more than ready to get back to work. At that same time the rest of the group walked into the command center and saw him performing. The Red Ranger did a couple of sweeping kicks, jumping back to his feet and did a high kick, along with a couple of side punches. The Red Ranger did a spinning hand stand before doing a back flip landing on top of one of the computers. The rest of the B-Squad laughed and applauded at their leader. He smiled and jumped down from the council to rejoin his team.
"Very well Cadet Landers welcome back to active duty." Cruger announced.
The team wrapped their arms around him celebrating his return to the team.
"You want some more good news? The new Battlyzer is done." Kat told them.
"You redid the Battlyzer?" Jack said amazed.
"Well yes, putting RIC back together was one thing but figuring out a new Battlyzer to beat Grimjor is quite another. I had to start again from scratch and I think you'll like what I have in store. I got rid of all the old components and rebuilt the Battlyzer from the ground up." she told him.
Kat showed them the specs for the new Battlyzer on her electronic clipboard jaws dropped.
"That's awesome Kat!" Said Bridge.
"Wow." Said Sky.
"Kat, you've really outdone yourself." Z commented.
"That's incredible." Said Syd.
"Now that's a Battlyzer." Said Jack.
"That is truly incredible." Said Sam.
"You said it." Said Zek.
"Hmm, I cant wait to see that in action." Commented Cruger.
Just then the alarms went off a group of Troobian foot soldiers were on Earth. Jack turned his attention to the screen and then back to his team.
"Ready to get back in the spotlight?" asked Sky.
"You know it. Ready!" Jack yelled.
"Ready!" the team yelled back.
"S.P.D. Emergency!" the team cried.
The Blue, Green, Pink and Yellow morphers lit up as the team went through their morphing sequences and their helmets came together. Jack's morpher lit up and held out the device as the police badge grew to adult size. The red squad leader held out his arms as he passed through the badge changing into the Red Ranger. The front of his helmet came together as the visor and mouthpiece flipped into place covering the Red Ranger's face and went into his signature pose.
"S.P.D. Red Ranger!" he cried.
The Rangers got to their patrol cycles and Delta Jeep peeling out of the parking garage and headed into the heart of town. The Troobians were robbing area businesses. Coming into the business district Jack launched his cycle into the air and did a one hand stand off the seat of his bike firing his Delta Blaster at the Troobians and stopping them dead in their tracks. The Patrol Cycle landed safely after he sat down on the bike. The others pulled into the business district and drew their weapons and fired at the ones that were still standing. The Krybots took cover behind some cars and returned fire. Jack put away his Delta Blaster and drew his DeltaMax Saber V2 pointing the crimson blade at the Troobians.
"Come get some!" he told them.
The Troobians remained behind the cars and kept firing. Jack blocked the laser beams with his sword and sent some of them flying back at them knocking a few of them to the ground. The Red Ranger jumped up on the hood of the car the Troobians were hiding behind and stepped on one's weapon. The Troobians answering the challenge dived at the car. Jack flipped backwards and fired his Delta Blaster at one of them. The Red Ranger then charged and pushed the car back with the Troobians still behind it trapping at least one of them. Three of them jumped over the top of the car and went to take him on.
"I've waited a long time for this!" Jack said making a fist.
The Troobians shot at him at point blank range. Jack did a back flip avoiding the gunfire. The Troobians attacked him two of them grabbed his legs but Jack overpowered them and sent the two robots flying one into a concrete wall the other into a chain length fence. The third one came after Jack; coming out of the back flip he punched the Krybot in the chest sparks flew as it staggered back. Jack threw in a spinning kick and sent the robot flying into some trash and debris. More of them came after him as the Rangers looked on amazed. With his Delta Saber in hand he slashed at one of them and fired his Delta Blaster at another. He did another roundhouse kick as two more came after him taking them down in one sweep. Another two jumped him from behind and held him down while one robot slashed at Jack's stomach. He dropped to his knees but used his weight to throw off the other Krybots; the one on his right didn't let go as easily. Jack twirled him across his shoulder and let the robot take a hit that was meant for him and pushed it away. He drew his Delta Blasters and fired his way out of the group and sends him skidding back on one knee. Despite his best efforts more of them kept coming.
"Now its our turn!" said Sky.
The Blue, Green, Pink and Yellow Ranger flipped over Jack and went to take on the remaining Krybots. Sky managed to dispatch several of them with his sword. Bridge flipped over the hood of a car and went hand to hand with several Krybots. Syd did a series of back flips not far from where Bridge was and took on a batch of Krybots herself and engaged a pair of them with her famous roundhouse kicks. Z launched herself over the shoulders of another Krybot grabbing the robot and catapulting it into the air. The robot smashed into a giant building sign and went to pieces. Jack managed to regain his strength picking himself up while the others made quick work of the remaining Krybots. Just then an Orange Head robot ambushed Jack as it slashed him across the chest with his sword. The Red Ranger fell back and clutched his chest.
"Hello old friend, remember me?" remarked the Orange Head.
"Not really." Replied Jack.
"Well I'm going to be the last thing you'll ever see." Taunted the Orange Head.
"I don't think so!" Jack said as he got to his feet.
"Let's mix!" he said.
The Orange Head charged Jack with its sword drawn. Jack drew his Delta Blasters once more and fired. The Orange Head blocked the beams with his sword charging up his weapon and sent out a blast of orange lightning at Jack knocking the Red Ranger back and disarming him. The Orange Head stood over him holding the edge of his sword in one hand pointing it at Jack.
"Your finished!" he said.
"Guess again Pumpkinhead!" Jack said.
Sky fired a laser blast hitting the Orange Head in the back. Seeing his chance Jack tackled the orange head robot pushing him back 20 yards and sent him crashing into the bucket of a backhoe. Sparks erupted from the robot's back as it cried out in pain its eyes glowing. The prongs on the edge of the bucket had pierced its back leaving several large gaps in the robot's armor. Jack threw the Orange Head 10 feet where it self-destructed.
"Now to help the others." He said.
By this time Grimjor had arrived on Earth yet again, this time with another monster in tow. The newest recruit resembled a toy robot; it was red and had a large gray mechanical claw with teeth. The robot monster resembled one of Grumm's larger machines. The monster had a light up chest and eyes and had a propeller adorning the top of his head. The Rangers regrouped in front of the city's newest threat.
"Not you again!" groaned Jack.
"Haven't you done enough damage?" said Sky.
"Not nearly enough Rangers, not nearly enough." Replied Grimjor.
"We'll see about that! We're shutting you down for good Grimjor!" Z pointed.
Grimjor smirked at the Rangers.
"As you said Yellow Ranger, we'll just have to see about that. See if you can survive my newest ally." Grimjor announced.
"Bring it on!" said Jack.
"He doesn't look so tough!" said Sky.
"Don't let appearances deceive you Rangers, my friend is far more dangerous than he appears!" Grimjor said at that moment Tektron went to attack the Rangers.
He truly was more dangerous than he appeared and attacked the Rangers using his supersonic speed. Sparks flew as he sped past them repeatedly striking them and knocking them to the ground Tektron rejoined his master's side. Grimjor laughed at the Rangers plight as Tektron fired a bolt of energy at the Rangers electrocuting them. The monster held up his arms pumping them up and down. Zek ran over to help the Rangers in his unmorphed form.
"Zek you need to get out of here!" cried Z.
"Not a chance, I'm not leaving you guys." He said reassuring them.
Zek turned to face the monster with the wind sweeping over him. Zek took his morpher from his shoulder and gave out his morphing call.
"Alpha Power!" he cried.
Zek flipped open his Dynamorpher exposing the police badge and flashing lightbar. The camera pans to a side shot over Zek holding out his morpher as blue and silver beams of light race past him his Ranger form is projected out of the morpher and fuses to his body in full Ranger gear. The camera pans to him facing forward as his Ranger helmet dropped down covering his face turning him into the SPD Silver Ranger.
Zek took an aggressive stance putting himself between the B-Squad Rangers and Tektron.
"Zek!" cried Z.
"Don't worry about me Z, I'll be just fine." he told her.
"Let's see what you got then!" said Tektron.
"Its not going to be pretty." Said Zek.
"We'll see about that!" cried Tektron.
The monster attacked Zek using its supersonic speed and managed to knock the hero back. Zek hit the ground next to his fellow Rangers. The Silver Ranger shook his head and got to one knee.
"Ok, let's try that again." he said getting up.
"Riot Blaster! Super Silverizer!" Zek cried.
The Silver Ranger called forth his A-Squad Rifle and his dad's legendary weapon and pointed the Riot Blaster at Tektron and fired. Tektron took off in a blur Zek turned and continued firing with both weapons. The laser bolts were right on the monster's heels as he dodged the laser fire. Zek held his gaze and kept firing without skipping a beat the monster led Zek around in a circle the Rangers had get clear of the laser blasts. Tektron raced past Grimjor and inadvertently drew his fire at the Troobian prince. Grimjor danced around trying to avoid the beams.
"Hey watch it!" he yelled.
"Sorry boss!" Tektron yelled.
Zek chuckled as he pointed his Riot Blaster at Grimjor and his Super Silverizer at Tektron and fired simultaneously at both of them. The beam from the Riot Blaster knocked Grimjor flat while the Super Silverizer missed its mark by just inches.
"You're going to pay for that!" Tektron yelled as he went after Zek.
The Silver Ranger redirected his fire but Tektron anticipated it and fired 4 sets of rockets from his shoulders at Zek. The bombs hit and threw the Silver Ranger though the air and landed on the roof of a silver car before hitting the ground. He lost power and demorphed in front of the monster.
"Let's get in there!" said Jack.
"Right!" yelled the others.
The Rangers then converted to SWAT mode and went to take on Tektron themselves. But the monster used his super speed on them once again and left them sprawled on the ground.
"He's too fast, we don't stand a chance against him." said Sky.
"Look out!" yelled Jack.
Little bubbles of energy began to form in Tektron's robotic claw building up energy. Before they could even raise their defenses he let out a massive stream of energy and catapulted the Rangers into the air.
"No!" yelled Zek.
The Silver Ranger picked himself off the ground and went for his morpher.
"Oh no you don't!" Grimjor grabbed his hand and pried it away from his morpher.
The Troobian kicked him in the chest and knocked him to the ground, his Dynamorpher having been knocked from his shoulder landed not far from him. Zek dived for his morpher Grimjor fired a blast from his scythe Zek tumbled across his morpher as the blast went overhead and destroyed a car picking up his morpher Zek unfurled himself holding the morphing device up.
"Back to Action!" he called.
In an instant Zek had remorphed into the Silver Ranger. Zek drew his weapons and fired at Grimjor at close range and sent the monarch flying and went to join the other Rangers. But as he ran to them Tektron fired a burst of lightning at Zek's chest and knocked the Silver Ranger down, his Riot Blaster spun across the pavement landing just beyond his reach.
"This has gone on long enough!" yelled Jack getting to his feet.
At that moment RIC rushed in an attacked Tektron from behind and sent him spinning to the ground. The robot canine landed in front of the Rangers almost didn't recognize him. RIC 3.0 had a new paint job. He was painted bright red with gold stripes along the sides and silver legs. The cybernetic canine retained the look and appearance of the original RIC but with a few add-ons. The most notable aside from his new red and gold paintjob are his razor sharp teeth and blue visor. RIC barked signaling he was ready to help them.
"All right!" said Jack.
"Way to go Kat!" said Z.
"You ready to help us boy?" said Sky.
"I think he is." Said Syd.
"All right boy, let's show 'em what you can do." Jack told him.
RIC barked in response to the Red Ranger.
"S.P.D. Battlyzer!" called Jack.
RIC's eyes lit up and he launched the new Magna Morpher from his back to Jack's wrist. Meanwhile back at SPD headquarters Kat went to check on the A-Squad in the medical ward. To her surprise the A-Squad was nowhere to be seen. She looked around the room but couldn't find any trace of them.
Jack pressed the button on his Magna Morpher and twisted the side throttle activating the Battlyzer. Beams of red and gold energy shot straight up enveloping the Red Ranger. It was then pieces of muscle-molded armor identical to his Red Ranger uniform started to appear and fitted over his standard Ranger suit giving him a more muscular appearance. Muscle molded chest and arms, muscle molded back and legs. The white lightning bolt on his chest became a raised clear plastic material with a deep blue cybernetic substance underneath. A pair of fully functional red and blue siren lights were imbedded in the shoulders and flashed in brilliance. The police badge on his right bicep also turned into a raised clear plastic substance. A pair of large red wrist mounted blasters with twin laser barrels and giant triangular blades on the outer forearm formed the Battlyzer's primary weapons. His outer thighs were covered with sheets of clear plastic material with SPD lettering adorning the sides in blue with the same cybernetic appearance underneath. With heavy armor plating over his shins and a pair of rocket boosters shielded his calves. The silver bands on the side of his helmet turned to gold and the siren lights changed from red to blue, the police badge on the front of his helmet also became gold completing the transformation. Jack swung the rapier sword from the previous Battlyzer Mode One with the SPD logo behind him.
"Battlyzer Punish Mode!" yelled Jack.
"Wow! Incredible!" said Syd.
"Nice." Bridge said.
"That's pretty impressive. I'll have to see if I can borrow that sometime." Said Sky.
"Not bad." Said Z.
"Man, that looks even better in person." Commented Zek.
Back at the Command Center Doggie was viewing the battle via satellite transmission.
"I have to say, that looks a lot better than the last one." He commented to himself.
At that time Kat rushed into the Command Center.
"We got a problem." She told him.
Back on the battlefield Jack ran toward Tektron in the new and improved Battlyzer, the robot monster was more than ready for him and rushed towards the middle of the battlefield. The Red Ranger drew back his fist and punched Tektron as hard as he could in the gut stopping the monster cold in his tracks. The force of the punch was so great it threw him back several feet before landing on his back. Tektron cradled his ribs looking up at Jack as he was rushing towards him. The Red Ranger jumped in the air and went to hit him Tektron flipped back as his fist punctured the earth. Tektron got away from him unscathed but this battle was far from over and they both knew it. Tektron ran towards Jack going on the offensive and threw a couple swings at the Red Ranger; Jack blocked them with ease and got him with a roundhouse kick. The monster retreated back a few steps.
"Come on!" said Jack.
"Very well!" replied Tektron.
The monster shot a bolt of lighting from his claw Jack ran towards him the arc of lightning deflected off his chest sending streaks of lightning everywhere and triggering explosions all around him. Jack jumped in the air and came down on the monster with a flying kick driving him into the ground. The monster managed to pull himself out and tackled him head-on. The two titans were locked in combat. Tektron powered up his claw and rammed Jack in the chest. Remarkably the attack went through electrocuting the Red Ranger a close range explosion knocked him back but was still standing.
"Feel my awesome power!" Tektron yelled.
The monster opened his claw to its fullest extent creating an energy sphere and launching it at Jack. The Red Ranger averted the blast by propelling himself into the air and fired his wrist-mounted lasers from above hitting their mark and taking him down. The monster fell flat on his back; by this time he had enough.
"That's it! I'm going to show you once and for all why you shouldn't mess with me!" yelled Tektron.
Tektron's arms flipped open revealing several large cannons that were concealed within his arms, the rest of him transformed producing several rocket launchers and Gatling cannons from his chest and back revealing his true form.
"Now you're speaking my language! Let's turn up the heat." Said Jack.
His Battlyzed armor produced four large bronze colored cannons from his shoulders pointing them at Tektron. The twin barrel wrist mounted cannon extended to their full length to bring about one of its finishing moves.
"Is that all you got?" asked Tektron.
"Your about to find out!" said Jack.
"Fire!" yelled Tektron. The monster unleashed his arsenal on the Ranger.
"Full power!" yelled Jack.
All 8 laser cannons fired at once, the beams concentrated and formed a massive energy ball and launched it intercepting Tektron's attack. At first they were deadlocked but it didn't take long for Jack to overpower and incinerate the monster destroying him for good. Grimjor was stunned as he watched pieces of his soldier fall to the ground.
"Your next Grimjor and I got something special in store for you. Battlyzer Strike Mode!" yelled Jack.
A stream of fire spiraled around Jack as he powered up for his next form. RIC reared up on his hind legs and barked, as he got ready to fuse with Jack. An explosion of flames launched the team leader into the air. RIC circled around Jack before transforming into the final stage of the Battlyzer fitting over the previous armor just as before. The new fire engine red canine formed the basis for the Mode 2 armor with some noticeable changes such as wings and a pair of shoulder mounted cannons from his front legs. The new saber was also different and looked like an actual blade. Jack's visor also changed from black to blue accentuating the change standing in front of a flaming SPD logo.
The revamped Battlyzer was given a 360-degree shot as his teammates complimented on the new and improved version.
"Wow!" said Syd.
"That's incredible!" said Z.
"Sure is." Said Bridge.
"Without a doubt." Said Sky.
Grimjor scoffed.
"Whatever, I blew up your last Battlyzer I can do it again." he said.
"You've had this coming for a long time. I'm going to make sure you get 20 years to max for all the stuff you've done." threatened Jack.
The Battlyzer saber ignited into flames. Jack fired his thrusters and rushed Grimjor at full speed.
"It ends here! Battlyzer power!" he yelled.
The Red Ranger held up the flaming sword and swung it at Grimjor a stream of fire shot out of the blade extending its range and headed towards Grimjor. The Troobian prince smirked and flipped over the flaming saber at the last minute mocking him. Jack looked up and saw him cartwheel over his head and landed safely away from him.
"No!" yelled Z.
"Impossible!" cried Bridge.
Full of anger Jack swung the blade again this time producing a fiery tornado and sent it towards Grimjor. The Troobian used his powers and blasted the tornado destroying it completely. The Rangers were shocked they couldn't believe he had this much power. Jack screamed in anger as a torrent of fire washed over him. The flames rose higher creating the image of a giant flaming dog. In one last attempt he hurled himself at Grimjor with the massive hellhound overshadowing the Red Ranger and launched the hellish canine at Grimjor this time actually getting in a hit. Grimjor emerged from the fire signs that he had been burnt as he escaped. By this time Bridge and Sky had enough and grabbed him his arms. Syd and Z got in there as well and grabbed his legs the Rangers held him down as best they could.
"Jack now!" yelled Syd.
"While you still have a chance!" cried Z.
"No I cant I'll hit you as well!" yelled Jack.
"You have to!" said Bridge.
"Its the only way!" yelled Sky.
"Do it Jack!" pleaded Z.
"Before its too late!" said Bridge.
"Do it!" said Syd.
"Hurry!" pleaded Sky.
"All right. Here it comes!" Jack yelled pointing his sword at the team.
"What?! Your not serious!" yelled Grimjor.
"Good bye Rangers." Jack said remorsefully and rocketed towards them.
Jack flew towards Grimjor with the tip of his blade pointed at his chest the Red Ranger had only one shot at this, whatever it takes he had to stop Grimjor. He had to make him pay for all the things he did. As he neared closer he could feel the icy sting of death he knew as well as the others that none of them were going to survive. The Battlyzer blade ignited once more as he flew in closer ready to impale the Troobian prince and cease the madness once and for all for the good of mankind. He closed his eyes as he got ready to pierce Grimjor but the Troobian prince wouldn't go down so easily using all of The Evil's energy he sent out a shockwave that threw all of the Rangers back including Jack. The Rangers were knocked 50 feet away from Grimjor each of them landed with a thud. Using the residual energy created from the shockwave Grimjor used his power to drop one last bombshell on the team.
"Ugh…. what?" Jack groaned and shook his head when he came to he couldn't believe what he saw.
"No." said Z.
"I don't believe it." Said Sky.
"Syd look." Said Bridge.
"I wish I hadn't." she replied.
"That's impossible, there's no way he could have done that!" Zek shook his head incredulous.
Before them stood five horrifying individuals that haven't walked the Earth in over 25 years, five individuals that should never be allowed back into existence; the Psycho Rangers.
Author's Note: All right, I had a lot planned for this chapter. I've been wanting to put in the new Battlyzer for quite a while now. But now ironically, I find myself looking forward to the next chapter. Anyone want to tell me what they think will happen? Let me know what you think and thanks to everyone that's reviewed so far. You guys are great, I mean it. Thanks for being such loyal readers and reviewers.
Please review, and good luck to everyone on their finals!
White Avalanche Ranger.
