Inside the Cursed Trinity's HQ Sara was knocked out cold as Trillion looked her over "She has certainly grown." Trillion muttered and then turns leaving the room.
As he returned he saw that Tiberius had returned to report in "No sign's still?" Trillion asked.
"None Masters, and Lady. I believe with the difficulty we are having this entire universe will have to be erased and replaced." Tiberius reported to them.
Vulpecula claps her hands "Excellent! Though first we must handle those rangers." the fox woman says her tail swishing back and forth in excitement.
Tiberius was hesitant "Is there another problem we don't know of till now Tiberius?" Trillion asked.
"There may be. In one of my recent attempts to find the source of this dimensions sin I was attacked by living machines. I believe they are called Wild Zords." Tiberius said and Sirius frowned.
"Zords? Zords mean more rangers Trillion." Sirius said and Trillion shakes his head.
"I believe we have nothing to worry about. The rangers that could once summon those zords are no longer able to." Trillion says frowning under his cloak.
"Yet the fact they still exist may be a problem. I heard they're are many Wild Zords including several undiscovered ones, and they have a great amount of power." Tiberius added on.
"Hmm...is there any clue as to where these creatures could be?" Vulpecula asked and Tiberius nods.
"They're may be. I have a lead involving a town somewhere in California." He reports to them.
Trillion looks to him "Go. Follow your lead, and destroy any of these Wild Zords if you come across them. We shall not be stopped Tiberius." Trillion ordered, and Tiberius bows vanishing in a flash of light.

The eight teens were all together trying to figure out what to do still about Sara. She was gone, and they couldn't find her no matter how hard they tried, and Maya was calling trying to get some help in finding said girl.
"I still don't get it." Logan says as he paces the ground.
"Well they want Sara for something." Marcus says and Eva sighs.
"Her brothers and half sisters are taking things hard. This is almost as bad as when Sara's father went missing." Eva said.
AV sighs "I wish me and Jazz had been here. Then maybe..." AV starts and Jazz shakes her head.
"Don't. None of us saw this coming." Jazz said as Maya hangs up sighing.
"I called in all the help I could. Everyone I know in California is looking for her." Maya tells them all, but was doubtful that anyone would be even able to find her.
Abby was just as concerned about what was going on, and sighs clapping her hands "Okay I think that is enough for now. We all need a break from this." Abby said.
"Sara will eventually be found, but for now you all need some time off. This tension isn't good for anyone." she then added on.
"Abby is right. We all need some time." Sora said to them, and all eight teens teleport out of the HQ.

Chris arrived home and while he was worried about Sara he also had a few other things on his mind. He knew that Eva's birthday was going to be coming up soon, and honestly he was that sure what he could do.
"Ugh...This is not easy." He muttered to himself, and that was when his phone started to ring.
Not even looking at the caller ID he picked it up "Hello?" He said from his end.
"Hi Chris. Long time no talk." The voice of Abu says from the other end.
Chris smiles "Hey Abu. So why you calling?" He asked.
"Well I heard about what was going on, and was wondering if you wanted to hang out? Might help cheer you up." Abu tells him.
"Thanks for the offer Abu, and actually I could use the distraction." Chris said and hums in thought
"And you actually called at a good time. You see I need some help. You see Eva's birthday is coming up..." He started.
"All I need to know. I'll be there as soon as I can, and who knows maybe we'll find something for your girl." Abu says to him and hangs up.
Almost an hour passed before Abu arrived, and he wasn't alone as Brad was also with him "Wasn't expecting me right?" Brad asked.
"Yeah, but it's good to see you and just be able to hang out." Chris said to him.
Abu nods "So need help getting your girlfriend a birthday gift right?" he asked.
"Yeah, but I don't get how us three hanging out will help." Chris said and Brad rolls his eyes.
"We just hang out, and who knows. Perhaps we'll find something that'll give you an idea." Brad said, and the three guys set off into town.
They would spend the next few hours just hanging out and doing there own thing, but an idea for what to get Eva wasn't coming to Chris at all.
Chris leaned against the bench groaning a bit in pain after doing a round of paintball "Okay perhaps paintball was a bad idea." Brad states plainly.
"You think?" Chris says sarcastically
"Ugh...yeah not exactly the smartest idea." Abu said as images of the three of them being shot at by three opposing paintball teams and cornered in a shed came to mind as well as all three of them being hit repeated amount of times.
"Right now I just want to stop and relax." Chris said.
The three of them heard the sound of the wind, and swore they heard the howl of a wolf. Then in front of them a marble like object of a deep purple rolled out in front of them.
Seeing it Chris leaned over going to pick it up "Are you in need some advice children?" A deep male voice says stopping them.
It belonged to a older man in a black top while over it was an old looking faded silver athletic jacket with blue markings and torn jeans while slung over his one shoulder was a brown bag.
"Uhh...Hello." Brad says.
"Greetings. Hmm..." the man said and then looks at Chris.
"I see something that is troubling all three of you, but it affects you and those close to you." he says mainly looking towards Chris.
"Yeah. I guess you can say that." Chris said thinking of Sara at this time.
"You lost someone. A friend of yours right?" The man asked.
Abu looks at the man "Your guesses are more than just spot on. Who are you?" He asked the man as the strange wolf howling like wind was heard again.
"My name is Merrick, and like the three of you I'm a special protector of the planet." Merrick says as the image of the Wild Force Wolf ranger appeared for a moment to Chris before fading away.
"If you wish to find your friend then perhaps..." Merrick started and got down and handed the purple marble like object to Chris.
"This may help you." he finished and turned to leave.
"Curious thing the bat. While some of the species are blind they can still find things better than most other creatures." Merrick says and walks away.
The comment about the bat confused them as Chris then looked at the marble and saw the figure of a bat inside it.
"He was part of Wild Force wasn't he?" Abu asked and Chris nods.
"Yeah. I wonder why he was here." Chris said as Brad hums.
"Well he seemed to know what was going on. Despite looking like he's been a wanderer for a good chunk of his life." Brad says.
"Why did he mention bats though?" Chris muttered as an idea came to Abu.
"Because he was telling us how we might find Sara. Or maybe he is saying that she will find her own way out." He says.
Chris heard this and grins a bit "So maybe we can use this to help find her." he said deciding that he would later give the strange marble to Maya.
"Hmm...I wonder what Merrick's story is though. He left almost as quick as he appeared." Brad said.
"That is because of his past." A gruff male voice says the voice seeming to come from all around surprising them.
"Who's there?" Chris asked as the three reached for there morphors Chris preparing his data card.
"If I were you I wouldn't do that. I mean no harm." the gruff voice said.
Cautiously the three put away there items "So if you mean no harm care to explain what you mean?" Brad asked.
"Merrick was imprisoned for years, but when he was released he was a warrior for there enemy Master Orc and become the creature by the name of Zen Aku. Even freed he was a lone wolf, but would come to help them more." The voice explained.
"Okay..." The three said.
"After the defeat of Master Orc he decided it best that he went on a journey alone. A journey to atone for his misdeeds. He believes that by helping you and giving you that he is repaying a misdeed he did when he was a Zen Aku." The gruff voice explained.
"You seem to know a lot about Merrick. Who are you?" Chris asked.
"...Zen Aku." The voice says and the wind blows. With that said the three could feel the strange presence leave the area they felt when the voice first spoke.
"That was...how is that even possible?" Abu asked in a whisper.
"Stranger things have happened." Brad says to him.

At the Cursed Trinity HQ Tiberius returned in his hands he had a small chest inside were several spheres containing several small spheres.
"I see you have returned. How did your mission go?" Vulpecula asked.
"Fine. I couldn't destroy the Wild Zords, but I weakened and imprisoned them." He says revealing the inside of the chest.
"Excellent job Tiberius." Sirius says to him.
Trillion walked into the room having been in the dungeon "She is awake." Trillion tells them.
"Finally. So have you told her yet?" Vulpecula says
Meanwhile in the dungeon Sara was pulling at the chains trying to break them or at least find a way to slip out of them, but it was no use and she slumps.
"Why did they come after me?" Sara muttered. When she woke one of the Cursed Trinity had been looking at her, and if she had to guess it was the one that they hadn't met only really having heard of.
At first she was scared and unsure what the creature would do to her, but then he only walked away which confused her.
She could only hope that her friends found her soon before they would do anything to her. She also began to wonder how long she had been gone along with wondering how her whole family was.

It was late at night and Maya was still in HQ sketching out the plans she had for two different things to use in the far future.
She then flipped the page and began to write having had visions again, but she was still having trouble figuring them out. She had two distinct visions that she began writing.
At a time of years beyond.
A set of twins were born.
To one who's heart holds Unity.
Yet one who thinks they knows best gives away to hide there shame.
A heart in black broken will mend.
Once the hearts of Red and Bronze are found and reunited.
Yet truths must be learned before healing can be done.
Maya then turned the page as she thought over her second vision before she began writing again.
One born from they who tortured and branded many.
Will claim one who's heart shines a bright Bronze.
Twisting the powers of Lore and it's Keeper.
All will fall to those who hold the Mighty hearts with Unity inside them.
Only then will they who is the Keeper of the powers of Lore be released.
Maya put the journal away and began to get back to work on the physical versions of what she had been sketching.
And that's it for the Wild Force tribute chapter, and I hope that you all enjoyed it. Yeah this isn't my greatest chapter, but I did enjoy writing this one. Anyways I hope that you guys will read and review the chapter. I know this authors note isn't much either, but I'm doing my best to focus on more than a single fic, and anyways until next time this has been decode9!
