When Death Deserves To Die!

Chase was in awe at who stood before him.

"You surprised by my apperance Red Ranger? You shouldn't be!"

"H-how?"

"It's quiet an easy ability. When facing death your life flashes before your eyes no? Well through that time you see yourself the whole time. So does my apperance not make sense?" Death grinned. Death looked EXACTLY like Chase. The same build, the same chocolate brown skin, the same chocolate brown eyes, the same curly black hair. He was wearing a red t-shirt, with blue jeans, black shoes. The only thing non-Chase about him was his demented arm.

"So you still wanna do this Red Ranger?" Smirked Death.

"Of course...Time to get crazy! Psycho Up!" Chase was surrounded by blackness, then the blackness covered and coated his body making the black part of his armor. He was then surrounded by fire, and the fire exploded and coated his body making the red parts of his armor.

"Red Psycho Ranger!" Chase got in a fighting stance.

"Prepare to die Red Ranger!"

"Psycho Scythe!" Chase summoned his scythe and swung at Death.

"Death Shock!" Lifting his hand Death sent out a purple electricity burst sending Chase skidding back.

"Flame Slash!" Chase sent out a powerful stream of fire towards Death.

"Don't think so!" Death stopped the attack with his demonic hand, "Death Flame!" Death summoned up black flames surrounding Chase.

"Fire? Really? I'm the Ranger of Fire!" Chase spun his scythe and swung it towards Death.

"Black Hand!" Death lifted his hand and stopped the attack with ease, "All Killing Eye!" The eye on Death's hand glowed and everything began to change around Chase.

"What the heck is going on around here?" Chase darted his eyes back and forth as he witnessed everything around him slowly die and decay.

"With my All Killing Eye, everything caught in it's gaze begins to decay, die, and fade away from existence! Meaning that once you finally are dead, no one will ever remember you!"

"What!" Chase looked around in panic.

"But don't worry! Killing you now would be no fun!" Death rushed Chase and punched him in his stomach sending him rolling down the mountain side.

"Aaaah!"

"You are the Red Ranger right?" Death sighed as he dissappeared and stopped Chase from going any further down the mountain side.

"You got that right! Blaze Blades!" Chase pushed away from Death and called upon two infernos on both sides of him. He reached out in to both infernos and pulled out two swords.

"Ha! Aren't those the same weapons that one Admiral made you use when you fought against your friends?" Death mocked.

"Maybe, so what? I'll now use them to protect my friends! Blaze Blast!" With the swing of both of his blades Chase sent out a powerful encompassing blast of fire that consumed Death.

"Die!" Death raised his hand and the flames died down.

"Ha!" Chase came from above and slashed Death's chest.

"Whoa!" Death stumbled back.

"Inferno Piercer!" Pointing both of his swords at Death, Chase released two powerful inferno's that devoured Death.

"Death Wave!" A wave of black energy and purple electricity surged through Chase's fire and sent him flying back.

"Whoa!"

"I'll admit that you have some what impressed me Red Ranger, but not enough!"

"Bring it on then Death! I'm going to kill you! I promise!" Chase got back in his fighting stance.

"Reapers Claw!" Death raised his hand as it gained a dark purple aura in the shape of a claw. Death then slashed his hand towards Chase slashing his chest.

"Augh!"

"Hmph, well you still seem to remain in that Ranger form. Why do you refuse to transform into your Black Eagle Ranger form?"

"Because...if I'm going to defeat you...then I'll do it as the Red Psycho Ranger!" Chase stated.

"Something else that bugs me is that...you are still in your Ranger form. After taking so many of my attacks you should have been forced to de-morph by now."

"Sorry, but I'm just that strong." Smirked Chase.

"Really? Then maybe I can use a little bit more power on you! Scythe!" Sticking out his hand Death summoned an all black scythe with a long silver curved blade at the end.

"Bring it on!" Chase jumped at Death with both blades extended.

"Reapers Calling!" With the swing of his scythe Death slashed Chase knocking him out of the air.

"Guah!"

"Reapers Descendence!" Slamming the staff of his scythe on the ground a beam of black energy shot up in the air, and a skeleton drove itself in to Chase's body.

"Aaaahhh!"

"Reapers Kidnapping!" Slamming the staff of his scythe once more Death used anotherf attack. The same black energy skeleton came up in to the sky and shoved it's hands into Chase's body.

"Aaaaahhh!" Slowly the energized skeleton tried to pull him out of his body.

"Hmph, pathetic Red Ranger."

"No!" Chase shouted.

Meanwhile...

"You almost have it Shaun!" Syren shouted as she, Zan, Rory, and Megan all held down Wormwood.

"Get off me you stupid humans!" Wormwood ordered, "Shield! Come to me!"

"Hurry Shaun!" Rory shouted.

"I'm trying you guys!" Shaun was trying to pull his hands out of Wormwood's chest.

"You will not take my Nightmare Crystal!"

"I'm going to take it!" Shaun shouted, "And then we'll destroy Nightmare himself!"

"How dare you speak Master Nightmare's name!" Wormwood roared releasing a large amount of electrictiy from his body.

"Aaaaahhh!" Everybody screamed in agonizing pain from the self-defense mechanism that Wormwood had just used.

"GET OFF OF ME YOU PATHETIC, WORTHLESS, SCUMBAG, GOOD FOR NOTHING, HUMANS!"

"Man, this guy really hates us huh?" Zan asked while grinnding his teeth.

"Take this you stupid Reaper! Lightning Cannon!" Shaun transformed into his Blue Psycho Ranger form and blasted Wormwood with every bit of lightning he had in his cannon.

"Whoa!" Everybody let go, except Shaun. He grabbed the Nightmare Crystal and was blasted away from Wormwood.

"No!" Wormwood fell to his knees and slowly began to disengrate, "You...will all fall and die before Master Nightmare! He wil crush you with his mere presence!"

"We'll see about that..." Panted Shaun, slowly Wormwood vanished.

"That's another one down." Syren sighed. Shaun looked back at the team and gave the order.

"Good...now...let's get back to base."

"Guah!" Chase dropped to his knees.

"Man! That sure was annoying!" Death grunted. He looked at Chase. His previous attack in taking Chase's soul nearly succeded, but Chase burnt the skeleton to save himself.

"Huh...wonder if you'll die now!" Death aimed his hand towards Chase, "All Killing Eye!"

"N-no..." Chase grunted. He looked to his side to see everythign slowly decay and die away. He began to feel his body give in to the death as well.

"Just let it happen..." Death informed, "Hehe...when I'm done I'll return to your friends as you! They'll accept me and I'll lead them to their doom against Nightmare! But first I'll make them suffer...I'll start with the Female Rangers...the things I'll do to them as you...not only that! But I'll simply just kill them all and make sure all the blood is on your hands! Actually, there's only one way t have you there, even in your death! I'll trap your mind within mine! Then you'll see and feel what I see and feel! Are you ready Red Ranger? Together we will be one!"

"N-no way..." Chase grunted as he struggled to stand up, "I'm not going to let you win!" The flames on Chase's armor exploded and his whole body was surrounded by a flaming aura. The flames around his body caused the rocks around him to melt.

"What in the world is this!" Death looked at Chase and how the fire around him counteracted Death's own All Killing Eye Technique.

"You've...mad me mad enough!" Chase roared, "So you better D-up because I'm in my zone man!" Chase stuck his hand out as it became encompassed in a large flame and became some sort of flaming gauntlet. Then the rocks from below coated the flames on his arm giving it a volcano like gauntlet apperance.

"So now I have a Demon Arm and you have an Volcanic Arm? Interesting, I think myy Reapers Hand will still destroy whatever you do."

"Then let's find out! Dante's Inferno!" Chase punched the ground sending out a powerful inferno that devoured Death.

"Aaaaaaah!" Death felt the burn from the attack, which caught him by surprise.

"How'd you like that? Huh Death? You like pain!" Chase shouted enraged.

"You've obviously gone berserk! I like it!" Death raised his Demonic Arm once more, "All Killing Eye!"

"Blaze Commandment!" Placing his palm on the ground Chase summoned a large encompassing circle of fire to surround Death.

"What?" Death looked around and actually felt the heat affect him.

"I'm going to burn you freaking alive!" Chase stated, "Even if you do look like me! Magma Blast!" Chase sent a powerful blastr of magma towards Death.

"Death Defender!" Death lifted his hand and the magma flying at him stopped. Though Death's invisible protective shield had slowly began to grow weak the longer it had to defend itself off against Chase's Magma Blast.

"Die Death!" Chase shouted, "Hell Fire!" Closing his hand into a fist, then quickly re-opening it caused a large various colored flame to surround and consume Death.

"What is this!" Death shouted.

"You're going to burn alive, just like I said!" Chase informed.

"You can't burn Death alive! Ha! Are you stupid! I'm basically immortal with the Nightmare Crystal! I'll just resseruct! Even if by some miracle you kill me, Master Nightmare will crush you with his mere gaze."

"That's what you think Reaper...I'm going to defeat and crush Nightmare. I'll make sure he never comes back, understand? I'll make sure he stays dead this time!"

"How do you plan on doing such a thing?" Death asked.

"I'll find a way...it's my job as a Power Ranger to find away. Even if I have to risk my own life to do so! I'll do whatever it takes!"

"Hmph...what a burning resolve you have Red Ranger...too bad Master Nightmare won't ever get a chance to see it!"

"Shut up and burn..." Chase sighed.

"Not unless you die with me! Deaths Last Resort!" Death extended his hand out and sent a powerful black wave around Chase. It then began to enter his body.

"Guah! Aaaaaahhhh!"

"With this move you feel everything I feel! So if I die, you die! But I can always come back, you on the other hand are human!"

"I...I'll...kill you!" Chase struggled to step towards Death. He extended his Volcanic Arm out and placed his hand on Death's chest.

"What are you going to do boy? You going to kill me? If you rip open my chest, you'll rip open your own!"

"Then...I guess we both die!" Chase shoved his hand in to Death's chest.

"Aaaaaahhh!" Both of them screamed in pure agony as they felt the burning sensation char their insides.

"I...aaaahhh...will...aaaaahhh! Take that Nightmare Crystal!" Chase grabbed Death's Nightmare Crystal.

"No! Let go!"

"Never!"

"Aaaaahhhhhhh!" They both screamed once more as Chase pulled the Nightmare Crystal out of Death's chest. Once Chase did this a large flaming explosion devoured the two.

"You...did it..." Death said in awe as his Demonic Arm slowly faded away along with the rest of his body, "You...killed...Death.."

"Y-yeah...I did..." Chase dropped to his knees with a large burning hole in his chest, "I guess I did..." He then dropp to the ground completley. The volcano where the battle took place had errupted, and slowly the lava made it's way down towards Chase. Motionless, unable to move, on the verge of death itself. He simply laid there...waiting. Waiting.

Next Time: The other Rangers have no trace's of Chase's whereabouts! Which worries them once the final Reaper makes his sudden apperance! Though he does not wish to fight at first, he eventually has no choice. Cyrus continues to look for Chase in hopes of bringing him back, that is...if he's still alive.
