Chapter 10: The gatekeeper and the kitsune warrior PT2
Chelbell2016:
Well here's the next chapter. I am getting them done quickly as I am not going to be able to update as much as I want to from Wednesday so I want as many chapters as I can out between now and Wednesday.
*Keeper of the powers*
Courtney's POV:
We all watched in terror as the gate stood in the middle of the city.
"I'm sorry rangers," Clare says looking really upset.
Maddie placed her hand on the girls shoulder.
"It wasn't your fault," she tells her soothingly and Bowen nods his head in agreement.
Xander suddenly stepped forward and pointed at the gate. "Look! Up at the gate!"
We all glanced to where he was pointing and our eyes widened when we see one of the gargoyles on the gate glow purple and come to life to attack and destroy the city. It growls as it jumps away from the gate. It's eyes glow and the gargoyle fires at us sending us five rangers, Clare and Bowen to the ground. We all groan.
"Get up!" I hear Koraggs voice say and I look up to see that he has a hold on Clare and Bowen.
"Let them go!" I order him and the others call out to our two friends.
Clare and Bowen both fight to get free.
"You two wont get away this time," Koragg tells them both and then turns to us five. "And the gargoyles of the gate will take care of you."
"Wait!" I yell running forwards to try and stop him.
I go to grab Clare and Bowen but Koragg kicks me away and sends me flying.
"Courtney!" Chip says as the others all gather around me.
Koragg, Clare and Bowen all disappear through a dark spell seal.
"NO!" We all cry but it is too late and Koragg disappears taking Clare and Bowen with him.
We move forward but a giant foot slams down in front of us and we all hit the ground again as pebbles go flying all around us. The gargoyle points his clawed staff at us and I realise seconds before that he is about to fire lightning at us.
"Look out!" I tell my friends.
We all jump high into the air as then ground, where we had been seconds before, explodes. We then jump into Titan mode to even the odds a little and to destroy the gargoyle. Me and Chip both kick the being in the chest and it stumbles backwards a little.
"All right phase two!" I call and the others go to dragon mode while I create a spell seal.
"UTHE MEJOR AZANTYS!"
I call and my snow leopard appears in his titan form.
"UTHE MEJOR ULTIMAS!"
Me and Azantys combine into our megazord. The dragon stands beside us and we prepare to fight the gargoyle. I create a spell seal with the spear and go to strike the gargoyle at the same time that the dragon goes to fire at it. He dodges both of our attacks and zoos to behind us. He blasts the dragon sending it to the ground and I turn to face the gargoyle. I attempt to attack again but the monster moves away from me again. The monster then strikes me in the chest with his weapon and I go flying backwards.
Me and Azantys hit the gate doors and I feel the wind get knocked out of me.
I am surprised when a sword hits me from behind. Azantys roars.
"Hello rangers," a voice says from inside and I turn to see Morticon fighting to get out.
"Morticon!" I say angrily.
I hear the dragon growl from behind me.
"You're megazord cracked the gate enough for me to slip through," Morticon says. "Now you're whole world will know my crushing power!"
I struggle to watch both Morticon who was trying to break through the gate, and the gargoyle who was behind us.
"Yes the time has come," Morticon continues. "The destruction of the surface world is at hand!"
He finally breaks through and the dragon and my megazord begin to fight him.
He strikes my megazord and then the dragon making me cry out and the dragon roar.
"Guys," I say to my friends. "Take flight!"
They take off into the air and I jump high up myself and we both prepare a double attack at Morticon.
"COME ON!" Morticon yells up to us.
We both attacked but Morticon shot electricity at the dragon and clashed his sword with my spear. He then strikes me and the dragon and we all hit the ground hard.
"Is that the best you've got," Morticon taunted and I felt my anger rise.
"Hardly!" I inform him.
Morticon's sword is suddenly surrounded by dark smoke as he powers it up.
"Now you'll see what true power feels like," Morticon tells us. "Dark magic strike."
He strikes me and the dragon and I feel Azantys pain as we are ripped apart. We are thrown out of our titan mode and I demorph before we hit the ground hard. I checked Azantys and when I seen he was hurt I knew I would have to send him back to Rootcore.
"Azantys I am sending you back to Rootcore."
"No I can help!"
"Not like this you cant your going!"
Before he can protest I send him away and join my team.
"He's even stronger than last time," Chip pointed out.
"He's got more dark energy than before," Maddie says.
I help them all up.
"How are we supposed to fight him?" Xander asks. "We don't have that kind of power."
I glance up at both the gargoyle and Morticon. Suddenly the whole sky goes completely black.
"What's going on?" I wonder out loud.
"Now what?" Vida questions.
Chip looks terrified. "I don't like the look of that."
Morticon begins to destroy the buildings of the city.
"Destroy it!" He tells the gargoyle. "Destroy it all!"
We all try to come up with a way to stop the evil forces attacking our city.
"Is this really how it's going to end?" Maddie asks.
I turn to face them all.
"NO!" I tell them. "This is not how it ends! I have been a ranger two times before and I have never let it end on a bad note! Udonna said we were the protectors of the city! And that is what we're gonna do!"
Xander and the others all pulled out their morphers.
"Right Courtney!" Xander says as they all enter the code 1-2-3.
My four friends morph first as I finished explaining my plan to them. I hoped it worked and that they would be ok,
They then go straight into titan mode and form the dragon to fight Morticon to the best of their ability.
"Now it's my turn!" I say preparing for phase two.
I pull out my morpher and press the buttons.
"MAGICAL SOURCE MYSTIC FORCE!" I call and then call for my bike. "GALWIT MYSTO MOTRO!"
I take off on my bike towards the gate.
"The gate!" I say as I get closer. "Bowen, Clare and Udonna have to be in there somewhere."
Suddenly Hidiacs appear and I have to rear up on my back wheel as explosions appear from where they shot at me.
"Hang on!" I call out hoping that the three people I need to free hear me. "I'm coming."
I race forward and begin to shoot my way through the hidiacs. "Lasers yeah!"
The hidiacs all growl as I continue to fire. I stop for a moment in front of them and pull out my Triassic shield. I put the shields on the handle of my bike for now and I begin to hack my way through the hidiacs one by one. As they all try to strike me I jump off of my bike to fight them. I did spinning kicks and dodged their attacks while striking some with my sword. I flip over towards some that were trying to pull a surprise attack on me and begin to hack at them. That group falls to the ground so I turn to fight some more. I continue to fight praying that Udonna, Bowen and Clare all Ok.
I finally get to the gate and I decide to go to Triassic mode.
"TRIASSIC ARMOUR ACTIVATE!" I call and I demorph going to my Triassic mode. "POWER OF FIRE! TRIASSIC WARRIOR!"
*Keeper of the powers*
I go through the gate and arrive at the area where Udonna, her son and her niece were being held. I noticed that Koragg was watching as Clare's power is being drained.
"Koragg!" I yell to get his attention.
I kick his shield and he goes stumbling backwards as I land on the ground in front of him.
"Let them go!" I order him.
"Courtney!" Udonna and Bowen say.
I see that Udonna is in some sort of ball, Bowen is in a force field and Clare is under some sort of seal and it just finishes completing and goes down into Clare.
"Clare!" I call to her worried. "Hold on!"
She glances at me weakly. The seal has clearly drained her badly. I turn to look at Koragg.
"TRIASSIC SHIELD FULL POWER!"
I yell and my shield begins to glow.
"All right Koragg!" I say to the knight wolf with my shield in hand. "I challenge you to fight right now!"
He stares at me and then answers.
"I never say no to a challenge!" He tells me.
His own shield glows and I look around, shocked as Lightning flashes all around me.
"Whoa!" I say.
Next thing I know I am in daylight and outside. I have no clue as to where we are.
"Wha-," I say in confusion looking around. "What's happening?"
"Courtney!" I hear two voices yell and I see both Clare and Bowen trapped in a force field up on a hill.
"Where are we?" Clare wondered on her own.
I suddenly hear Koraggs voice and I turn to see him approaching me.
"Your challenge, my battlefield," he tells me which explains how we ended up here.
I pull my sword out of my shield, and raise it ready to fight. "Fine by me. Come on!"
Koragg also pulls his own sword out of his shield.
"I am ready," he tells me.
I run forward with my sword and shield in hand and we begin to fight. We clash swords and then I raise my shield as he goes to knock me off balance with his. He stumbles back from the impact but quickly jumps forward again to battle me. I can hear Bowen and Clare discussing worriedly about the battle. As Koragg steps closer I duck and roll to avoid his strike and then use my shield as he goes to strike me while I am on the ground. I block another and then he has to block one of mine. I jump into the air and kick him in the chest and he goes stumbling back. He growls and moves forward once more. I jump over a strike that he aimed for my mid-section and I ended up behind him. Quickly turning to face him I quickly raise my shield again as he goes to strike me.
I send flames at him which he is forced to dodge. I move to kick him and he blocks me with his shield. He finally manages to strike me and I go rolling across the ground. He goes to strike me with his sword but I wave my hand and he goes flying away from me. This gives me enough time to get back to my feet. I aim a kick at him but he blocks it again. I jump over him and turn to face him again.
"Come on!" I challenge him.
I finally manage to strike him a few times with my sword and he keeps trying to block me. I don't give him a chance. He knees me and then hits me with his shield. He flips me over and I hit the ground landing on my back.
"Get up!" Koragg orders me.
I quickly get back to my feet. I power up my sword and shield and I go flying at him covered in flames hoping to do some damage. He strikes me hard and I go flying backwards.
"Triassic sword fire strike!" I call and flames appear all over my sword.
I throw the flames at him and he just manages to block them. The force of the flames send him stumbling backwards. He comes back and I raise my sword blocking his attack. He strikes me twice and again I hit the ground. I jump back up and I have to block his next few strikes and it makes it hard for me to get in my own hit. One particular painful hit and I go over the side of a cliff.
I cry out as I am forced to raise a shield of my own to prevent a very painful landing. I lower myself into the water and quickly get back to my feet.
"It's not over yet!" I tell Koragg who comes running at me prepared to battle again.
"Right you are!" Koragg agrees as he continues to run at me.
"Try this!" I tell him. "Fire of the phoenix! Triassic fire power up!"
I jump into the air and as flames surround my body I go flying back towards Koragg and he groans as he is injured but not down.
"NO!" I snarl angry that my most powerful attack didn't work.
"Your magic is strong!" Koragg points out. "But it cannot compare to that of the master! Behold his power! DARK MAGIC STRIKE!"
I try to raise a shield but it is no use. The magic is too powerful. As the strike hits me I loose my Triassic sword and I feel an enormous amount of pain as i hit the side of the hill with so much force that it crumbles from the impact.
"COURTNEY!" Bowen and Clare yell seeing that I am down.
Koragg pulls me to my feet and holds me against the hill.
"Now you know the power of dark magic," Koragg says right up in my face. "That kind of power will always triumph!"
I glare back at him.
"I have heard that twice before Koragg," I tell him still struggling. "I'm still here the bad guys aren't! What does that tell you?"
He growled but didn't answer.
"It tells you that you're wrong!" I say right into his face. "There's more power in courage... the kind it takes to keep going even when it looks like there's no hope. That's why dark magic will never beat us."
I grab Koraggs sword and pull it away from my head and body.
"You fool," Koragg says realising that I haven't given up. "Just surrender!"
He goes to strike me but I feel a sudden rush of power and phoenix wings grow on either side of my Triassic armour. I kick him away and float into the air using my wings for support.
"I will never surrender!" I tell Koragg.
I fly high into the air grabbing my sword and shield along the way. I feel my body surround in flames and as I get high enough I use my magic to send a spell seal to Koragg that holds him in place.
"NOOO!" Koragg yells as he struggles to move.
I then come flying down and he raises his sword but I use my Triassic sword and I can feel mine overpowering his. His sword breaks in half and he goes stumbling away from where I am floating off the ground in the air.
"My sword!" Koragg says in shock.
He begins to spark as my wings disappear and I land back on the ground.
"Oh yeah!" I say clicking my fingers and he finally blows up. "Clare! Bowen!"
I run over to my two friends. The shield breaks around them and I drop back into ranger mode as I get closer. Bowen helps Clare up who is still weak.
"Are you two ok?" I ask.
Bowen nods his head still holding Clare up.
"I think so," Clare says to me. "Being a sorceress is tougher than I thought."
There is a sudden explosion and I run over to look at the place where I had destroyed Koragg. He reappears having not been destroyed completely.
"NO WAY!" I yell is shock.
"You may have destroyed my weapon," he tells me getting back to his feet. "But you have not destroyed me."
"Koragg!" I yell to him before he disappears laughing. "This isn't over, get back here!"
Clare, helped by Bowen, stumbles over to me.
"The other rangers...," Clare begins and I can see that both Bowen and her are worried about our friends. "Morticon will destroy them."
"Azantys was injured earlier I don't have my megazord anymore," I tell them and then something occurs. "Unless I have Cotastros. Last time we were together we were unbeatable. But my telepathy aint enough to bring us together."
"Then you will have to do it again," Clare points out and I don't like where this conversation is going. "Maybe if all three of us combined our powers and get control of him."
Bowen didn't like the idea as much as I did.
"No this has already taken so much out of you," I tell her and then glance at Bowen. "I don't know wether it would be enough just the two of us."
"It's what my mother would have done," Clare points out.
I couldn't disagree their and neither could Bowen.
"All right Clare," I say and Bowen nods.
I step away from the two and pull out my Magi-staff.
"MAGI-STAFF FULL POWER!"
I raise it into the air and it glows. It begins to drain me. Then Bowen and Clare step either side of me. Clare's headband and Bowen's ring which he raised into the air, began to glow as they both placed a hand on my wrist. I could feel the strain it was putting on them but even more Clare. Clare nearly faints and I have to hold her up.
"Maybe we should stop," I suggested.
"Keep going!" she tells me.
"Okay!" I agree.
The three of us continue to use our power. After another or minute or two I raised my staff into the ait and a bright red light came out of it. Next thing I know I hear a neigh and Cotastros appears.
"Hello Cotastros, I must ask for your help again please."
"I will help you once more. I will help you when needed but please remember I belong to Koragg!"
"I will remember thank you!"
I then turn smiling to Bowen and Clare.
"He'll help," I tell them. "Get her back to Rootcore Bowen!"
He nods. "I will."
I move forward and raise my morpher.
"GALWIT MYSTO PRIFIOR!"
I go into Titan mode and jump on Cotastros back and he rides forward.
"Go Cotastros!" I tell him.
I ride off to help my friends.
*Keeper of the powers*
I arrive as the sun comes back and the gate is lowered.
"Hey," I say to Morticon who had just asked about who is interfering. "That would be me."
My friends who are all on the ground injured call out in happiness that I have arrived.
"Come on Cotastros!" I say. "Just like last time!"
I jump off of his back and we both go through a spell seal and combine into our megazord.
"CENTAURUS PHOENIX MEGAZORD!" Both me and Cotastros says through our telepathy bond.
I ignite the tail on my head.
"Fire tail!" I yell.
I strike Morticon twice with the tail and he goes flying backwards.
"Come on rangers!" I tell my friends and Vida jumps on my shoulder while the others all gather around me.
"Amazing Courtney!" Xander says.
"Now that was cool!" Vida agrees.
Morticon got back to his feet.
"You insolent little rats!" Morticon growled.
"You guys ready?!" I ask my friends.
"READY!" They all agreed.
I release Cotastros and after thanking him I combine with the others to form our megazord.
"Let's do it!" I tell them as we finish combining.
Morticon goes to strike us with his sword so we quickly pull out our own and block him. We raise the leg of the megazord and kick him sending him stumbling away from us. We strike him again.
suddenly the spell seal behind us begins to glow.
"Whoa!" All five of us say.
Then a multi-coloured light appears above and when we raise our staffs to it they begin to glow as well.
"Check it out!" I tell my friends.
We all lower our staffs and feel the energy coming from them.
"Where'd this energy come from?" Xander asked curious.
"I don't know," Vida says leaning towards him. "But it couldn't have come at a better time."
I agreed with her on that.
"Oh yeah!" Chip and Maddie agree.
"Let's see what it can do!" I tell my friends.
We raise our sword and prepare to fight Morticon again.
"Time to end this!" Morticon says as his sword is surrounded by dark energy. "DARK MAGIC STRIKE!"
He goes to strike us.
"ANCIENT POWER MYSTIC SPELL SEAL!"
We clash swords with Morticon and what surprises us is that his sword freezes.
"What?" Morticon says backing away.
From our cockpit we all stare in wonder.
"How did we do that?" Vida questions.
"We froze it," Xander pointed out.
"It's got to be..." Maddie begun.
"Udonna?" I question in realisation.
"You mean the white ranger," Chip corrected.
Suddenly a ghost like hand laid itself on top of ours. We all looked around to see the white ranger in spirit form.
"Udonna!" We all yell out and then cheer.
Udonna nods her head.
"Yeah!" I call. "Now we can't loose."
"Cool!" Chip says.
"Yeah!" Vida agrees.
"Right!" Maddie says.
"Let's go!" Xander tells us.
"TOGETHER!" We all yell and then raise our magi-staffs which glow brightly.
Together megazord and white ranger raise a sword and yell. "MYSTIC STRIKE!"
We strike Morticon together and he stumbles backwards.
"The great Morticon has fallen," Morticon says sounding defeated. "But the master will prevail!"
"CHECKMATE!" We all yell clicking our fingers.
Morticon is finally destroyed once and for all.
We all cheer.
"Great job rangers," I tell my team glancing around at all of them. "Morticons gone!"
"Finally!" Xander agrees.
"Forever!" Maddison says.
"All right!" Vida cheers.
"Sweet!" Chip says.
We all return to Rootcore, meet up with Bowen and Udonna, and go to check on Clare who had passed out the moment she had sealed the gate. Bowen had transported her back here.
"Wake up child," Udonna tells her.
Clare finally begins to stir and raises her head.
"It's over!" Udonna tells her when she looks at her.
"Udonna," Clare says happily. "You're alive!"
Bowen helps her back to her feet.
"A little frozen around the edges," Udonna says smiling at her niece and son. "But yes, I'm alive."
We all move to stand next to Udonna.
"Morticons gone Clare," I tell her and she looks relieved.
"For good," Xander clarifies.
"Yeah, Udonna was able to channel her power of the snow staff to help us," Vida explained.
"But we couldn't have done it without you Clare," Maddie says to her smiling.
"You sealed the forced of evil back into the depths," Chip cheered. "You're like a super sorceress."
We all laugh and Bowen nods.
"Yeah, I guess I am," Clare says but I notice that she looks really upset as she picks up her mothers headband. "But that was my mothers power. And now it's all gone!"
Udonna and Bowen give her sympathetic smiles.
"Niella and Cronos would have been proud of you two today," Udonna says glancing at both her and Bowen. "And Bowen I want you to keep the ring. I was too worried to let you use the power left to you. But it is time for you to fulfil your destiny. I am so proud of you two."
Me and Bowen both smiled widely at each other. He could join us in our battles now.
We were a team of six.
