"W-Who are you?" Sora asked scared and cautious as her and the rest of the rangers stood looking at the figure who was in the center of where the wreckage of Diablo's space station/Cursed Trinity Hideout use to be.
The figure was now standing probably near seven feet tall towering even the tallest of the group. She had dark skin, and pupiless red-pink eyes and etheral like blue-black hair that floated on it's own without wind. Meanwhile long slender demonic like horns came out of her skull and almost seemed to form some kind of crown. She wore a sleeveless skin tight suit that exposed a portion of her stomach and back. Blood red markings seemed to be etched into her skin, and similar markings were on her suit. She had wolf like claws instead of normal finger nails, but her feet were much more animal like as they were much more fox like. Meanwhile nine black fox and wolf tails hung on her shoulders like a cape. She also had large wolf like canines for front teeth.
The animal like woman took a look at the fourteen in front of her the pupiless eyes scaring them. Seeing this she smiled "You have the right to be scared little ones. For someone born of the Fusion ritual is far above what you can handle." She says and in a flash of black light Chronoa's staff appeared in her hand.
"You ask you I am dear child? Let me tell you..." She says and takes steps forward the ground starting to decay and fade away leaving pure white.
"I am decay. I am death. I am fear. I am darkness. I am destruction!" She says and blasts the teens scattering them.
"Morph!" Sora shouts and the fourteen do so.
Leo was the first to charge forward, but was blasted without being seen "I am what keeps you awake at night."
Alvin and Adam were next to try, but both knocked away with her staff "I am what even the bravest of people fear."
Jason, Marcus, Sara, and Cassie were next "I am both the greatest joy and darkest desire."
Eva, Chris, and Logan charged in from different angles hoping the catch this strange woman off guard, but she simply catches Logan and swings him around hitting the other two.
Peter, Jazz, and AV tried to work together, but she simply deflected the shots AV fired back at all three of them "I am a legend, a myth, and real." the woman contiued.
Sora was the last to charge and made several attempts to strike, but she simply dodged and hit her with a point blank blast from the staff "I am the goddess of decay and destruction. I am Erasure!" She finished.
The fourteen of them struggled to get up, but was finding it hard to do so "E-Erasure. A goddess!" Adam sputtered.
"Exactly. I am three beings one ambition given life, divinity, and one purpose. To see impure worlds destroyed and replaced with perfect, beautiful, new ones." Erasure says and looks around before giving a look of utter disgust.
"This world is ugly and filled with such impure sin. Sin that can only be dealt with by complete erasure." She then says.
The fourteen get up "N-No! That won't happen." Logan shouts and runs forward at the goddess.
"Begone ignorant child!" Erasure shots as a black blast of energy hit's Logan, and when it hits while not quick nor slow he let out a scream and he faded to being like a black and white drawing before completly vanishing.
The sound of a crystals hitting the ground was heard as the Unity Crystal and Underdog Gemstone that he held hit the ground.
The now threeteen saw this and was completly shocked and horrified "L-L-LOGAN!" Marcus shouted.
Leo grits his teeth "Okay time to put this to use..." He starts grabbing the Unity Crystal of Justice, and Alvin the Unity Crystal of Three Lights Protector.
Seeing this Erasure acts quick and does away with them to "Ahh!" both shout.
Before both were erased Leo looks to Sora "S-Sora...here!" He shouts throwing the Unity Crystal of Justice to her same with Alvin and his both falling to the ground.
"Always remember that we're wit..." Leo began, but never finished as he and Alvin were erased there existence completly erased.
"LEO!"
"ALVIN! NO!"
"Guys...We got to do this. For them." Sora said.
The remaining elven nodded solemnly and under her visor tears of sadness and anger flowed "Erasure...goddess or not...I sure hope you can't feel any pain." She says angry.
Her eyes opened into a hard glare "Because we're going to come looking! IT'S SHOWTIME!" Sora shouts as all eleven rangers gave out a battle cry.
=LOREKEEPERS=
"What's the situation Raine, Abby?" Maya asked as her group finished up the remaining Erasers and Elite Erasers in the area they took.
"The other's are reporting in, and it looks like they have just about finished up to. I...I've lost contact with the team." Abby reported to her.
"We haven't just lost contact. Visual is shot to, and...I don't know if it's a glitch, but Logan, Leo, and Alvin's life signs, morphors, and signals just vanished." Raine says her obvious worry for her adoptive brother coming through.
Maya heard this and her heart began to quicken and looked to her group "C-Can you all finish up here?" She asked.
Tony looked to her and nodded "We can handle this Maya. You look after the team your mentoring." Tony says and Maya was grateful and she headed off as Raine sent her the coordinates for where the fight was going.
With the remaining eleven rangers they were fighting the hardest battle of there lives as the fought the goddess Erasure.
"Ha!" Erasure taunts as she clawed at Eva's suit her touch making the part of the suit she touched crumble to pieces.
She was then kicked hard by Marcus and Jason the two working in unison. Growling she spun hitting them with the wolf and fox tail cape which made whatever it touch crumble. Luckily the two didn't lose much except for there weapons which they used to block the attack.
"What's the matter? Your all fighting like a bunch of scared children." Erasure taunts then eyes narrow.
"Maybe I should reduce you by a few more..." She then says, and quicker than they could react AV, and Sara were blasted.
"Gahh!" Both girls shout in pain, but before anything could be said or done they were gone.
"NO!" They all shouted Adam the most in anger at losing AV.
"Nine left...or should I say eight!" Erasure says and fire another shot this time aiming at Sora, but before it could hit Cassie was nearby, and managed to put herself between the blast and Sora.
"Goodbye...Sora..." Cassie says and vanished and like the others there gemstone and crystal dropped to the ground.
Sora saw this and was broke as she fell to her knees "Cassie...no...not you to." she says.
The others saw this to and memories of the different times they spent with Cassie as a ranger and non ranger made them miss her just as bad as all the others who were now gone.
"All three triads are useless. You've lost one or two members to many. A triad leader is even gone." Erasure says.
Eva runs over shaking Sora "Get up Sora. There's still a battle to be...wahh!" She started then screamed as she was hit.
"EVA!" Sora called out shocked, and the girl faded away.
"Faith is lost, Courage is gone, and what use is Responsibility?" Erasure said.
Sora, Adam, Peter, Jazz, Chris, Jason, and Marcus all gathered together "There's only half of us now. What should we do?" Sora asked genuinely scared, and for once she didn't know what to do.
"Is that a dumb question? We need to keep going!" Peter says.
"Yeah! The other's would want us to keep on fighting." Jason said.
The two let out battle crys as they charged at Erasure weapons out as they continiously tried to hit her. None hitting, but Erasure was put into different precarious situations to dodge. The two didn't seem to be tiring, and the white space created when she moved began to spread.
It was then that the two finally hit her and threw her back. Erasure touched her cheek and let out a chuckle "Congragulations. You two just moved up to being eliminated now!" She says and blasted them both.
"Gahh! G-Guys!" Peter called out.
"D-Don't forget us. Never forget!" Jason said and the two were then gone to.
"Peter...Jason..." Sora says starting to despair seeing her friends, the people she considered her second family vanish one by one.
Adam and Chris looked at one another and nodded, but before they could charge Sora grabbed them "No! Don't you guys go to!" She said teary eyed under her helmet.
"Sorry Sora, but we have to. There's no where else we can go." Chris said.
"Yeah. If we don't even try to stop her here then she'll erase this universe. She won't stop there either. More will be erased because of her skewed version on 'impurity' and 'perfection'." Adam says.
The two ran and both worked together actually managing to deal blows to her, but just like those before they were hit and faded away. Yet they fought to the end not giving into the pain of being erased from existence.
Jazz and Marcus looked at one another both giving a smile under their helmets "Marcus...It's been an honor and a privelage fighting with you." Jazz said stepping up.
"Same. Your a really amazing person, and just as amazing a teammate." Marcus said
"Here we come Erasure! We're two of toughest so don't underestimate us!" Jazz said.
"Even if we're gone our red is still here, and she will stop you!" Marcus yelled and they both charged in.
Jazz swung with her whip attempting to grab Chronoa's Staff, but was smacked away. Erasure then kicked who attempted to stab her with his blade.
He just came back though and Erasure countered with the blade of the staff. Jazz tried to hit her with the whip again, but it was caught and crumbled away.
Even with this problem though Jazz just charged in and attempted to punch her following in tandem to the rythem of the attacking and parrying that was going on with Marcus.
Starting to feel a bit overwhelmed Erasure to started to get physical each blow of her landing getting rid of pieces of their suits. Soon enough only a few pieces of the suits were left, and even pieces of the helmet were missing from her touch.
"You've both...been fun...but now, goodbye!" Erasure says and blasts them both when they came in close to attack her again.
"S-Sora...don't give up..." Marcus said as he vanished.
"If anyone...can beat her...you can..." Jazz says a smile could be seen as her mouthguard was gone. She to then vanished.
Sora could barely find strength to move now as she watched the last of her team be erased from existence.
The white space continued to spread as Erasure stepped forward heading for Sora.
Hearing her coming Sora began to back away "S-Stay a-a-away!" She says scared.
Erasure stopped looking her over "Your the one they said would stop me? Your nothing special..." She says and rasies her staff.
Sora closed her eyes bracing herself, but at last second right when she heard the blast she felt something grab her as she and someone else got out of the way.
Sora opened her eyes and saw Maya over her face in pain and glancing back to her leg "Close one huh?" Maya said.
"M-Maya! No you shouldn't have done that. Now your going to be gone to...please...please don't leave me to." Sora says and Maya smiles.
"Oh Sora...everyone has to gone some time. This is only just temporary." Maya says as her legs faded away.
"Maya...I can't do this." Sora said.
Maya held up a finger which glowed "Yes you can. Because the answer to how is inside here." She says and puts her finger to where Sora's heart is.
"Let what matters most prevent you from becoming nothing. Don't give in to despair and delusions. Let what everyone feels flow through you." Maya says, and then faded away.
With Maya gone Sora was now sobbing no longer able to hold it in as Erasure looked annoyed.
"Useless! Why did all these humans put their lives on the line for you?!" Erasure said before calming herself.
"No matter. I think it's time that I did what I was born for." She says.
Sora just continued to sob as she thought over the question that Erasure asked having no answer "Oh Chronoa Staff hear my call. Rid this dimension off a things living and not. Cursed power get rid of all! Erase!" She chants.
What happened next the effects could truly be seen from The Great Library. Billions of books and all the ranger books from that dimension vanished alongside two sets of sentai books.
Erasure...had succeded in what she was suppose to. The dimension of I930 belonging to many powerful warriors called Power Rangers...was gone.
This didn't go unnoticed by Abby, and Raine both crying into each others arms. Raine though after a few minutes stopped and was looking in shock.
"W-What is it Raine?" Abby asked.
"I-It should be i-impossible, b-but l-look Abby!" Raine said pointing at the shelf, and look Abby did. What she saw on the shelf surprised her because while there was only a handful of ranger books left she saw one that shouldn't be there. It was a bright red book with a decortaive design on the cover, and in the middle of it was a gold quill feather.
"Sora...Sora is still alive!" Abby said.
Raine frowns "But she's all alone. What can she do on her own?" Raine asked.
"I-I don't know, but for now we got to have keep up our spirits. Miracles can happen Raine, but only if we make them." Abby said.
"Sora...you can do this. Believe in yourself." Raine muttered.
=LOREKEEPERS=
White...nothing but white could be seen as far as the eye could see. It was also all that a young girl with a fading memory could see.
"I've...failed..." the girl says trying to understand why she still existed. She couldn't tell how long it has been. Day? Months? Years? Decades? Centuries even? All that she knew for sure was that she had failed at something.
She didn't know, and she couldn't tell at all as she wandered the white space without purpose, and without a reason. Every now and then she thought that she saw something bright that looked like a color.
Her sense of time was gone, and felt like she was forgetting more and more as she walked till the point that she had practically had forgotten everything even her own name.
She didn't feel hungry, tired, sad, angry, happy, joyful. Being in such an empty and white space was perhaps turning her just into an empty and hollow husk of someone.
Days...or maybe years after her emotions faded and eyes dulled something caught her attention. It was a color...a vivid pink as something about how it felt drew the girl towards the color.
What she saw was a pink gemstone, and a purple crystal near it. Curious the girl picked them up and felt something flow through her.
"What...is...this...strange...feeling...I'm...having?" The girl asked talking for the first time in possibly centuries.
"I love you Sora."
"I know it might be a while, but I hope that you will eventually trust me again."
The girl looked around hearing some female voice, and something about it felt...familiar to the girl. Pocketing the gem and jewel she would continue her walk barely noticing a pink figure following her before fading away.
The following days, weeks, month, years, decades, or centuries the girl was uncertain, but she would continue to find these crystals and gems. More voices filled her head as she began to actually feel.
"Oh come on you know my puns are funny!" A guy says laughing as a black figure passed by the girl.
"Your secret is always safe with me. I promise." Another voice, and yet again male as a yellow figure patted her shoulder.
"I don't like to fight, but if it's for a purpose then I will." Yet another male voice says and the girl turns around having thought she had seen a green figure.
With each words the figures said envoked different emotions from the girl. The figure in black she felt joy bubbling out so much that she just had to let it out like as a laugh. Yellow she felt safe and secure around like it was someone she could count on. Green she felt nothing, but pride for this voice and figure like they were someone who came far.
"I might be a tough guy, but that doesn't mean I won't consider others." A big orange male passed her that time after finding one more gem and crystal. The girl felt that she could understand this one well.
"Hey! Up for playing a little prank with us?" A female purple figure said approaching the girl before vanishing. The girl cracked a small smile as if knowing the prank was completly safe, and that she only meant it in good fun.
"Fun is my middle name, and don't let people tell you otherwise!" A male...blue..no cyan figure said. She felt like when this guy was genuinely having fun he was always around people, and he nor no one else cared if he messed up.
"I'll always be there to back you up! Count on it!" A female figure in a dark shade of red...called crimson if she recalled had said to the girl one day. This touched her, and she belived the girl with all her heart.
"I know being interested in manga and comic books sounds weird, but it's what I love." The girl had to look hard, but saw a male figure in white with a black outline around him for a moment before vanishing. She felt it was wrong to judge what this person liked, and wouldn't blame them for what they liked.
"I know that I'm maybe to kind for my own good, but aren't you the same way to?" A bronze figure asked. This made the girl think and consider that for some reason he was right. Perhaps for some reason the girl was also supposibly originally a kind person.
"If it wasn't for you guys I don't know what I'd be doing right now." A golden male figure says one day. This made the girl just nod proud to have been part of whatever changes had occured just because she and others were around this person.
"S-Sometime you j-j-just have got to h-have a little bit of f-f-faith." A little female figure stuttered. She couldn't explain it, but she hugged the silver figure which only vanished when the girl touched it. She couldn't help it because despite how the girl talked she certainly had a stronger spirit than those that she had seen so far.
"We'll always be there for each other. Right?" A female figure in blue had asked one time. The girl could tell that this figure was wise beyond her years, and had endured some of the harshest pains. It made her feel absolute respect for this figure, and want to do nothing but make sure that she and every other figure she saw happy.
A long time possibly passed before she saw a red crystal matching colored gemstone. Along with them came a female figure in red who said absolutely nothing which confused the girl who held up her hand. Surprising the girl the figure in red did the same thing at the same time.
She couldn't understand it, but something about this figure was much more familiar than that of any of the others. Truth about how she felt about this figure was the same as she often felt about herself.
The girl and figure in red were absolutely nothing special at all having come from a little known town. Both of them had doubts that they could often had trouble shaking, and both of them had someone special to them. Both of them had shouldered great responsibility, and both had lost people important to them. Yet something else was shared between them as another older female figure in red stood across from the other younger female red figure.
"So you're just going to stand by and let others get hurt?" The older female red figure asked as the younger one tensed up because the answer to the question was obvious. The younger female red figure would never let that happen.
The older red figure put a hand on the youngers shoulder "You just can't stand by and let that happen am I right? It's not you." She then asks as the younger one gives a small nod.
The two figures then faded away as something about those words ignited a fire inside the girl and she picked up the remaining two crystals. It was then that everything came rushing back to the girl.
"My name...is Sora Elizabeth Daniels...I am the Red Lore Keeper Power Ranger." Sora says regaining her memory and started walking her pace slow.
"I have a home, friends, a girlfriend, family, and world I care for." She then began picking up her pace now up to a steady walk.
"Even if it is gone I will bring it back somehow." She picked up her pace even more and she was now jogging.
"Though I'll never do it alone! Because...everything I care about, and everything that matters is inside my heart, soul, and spirit!" Sora shouts and was flat out running now a fire burning bright in her eyes.
She had given up before, but now as she looked back at everything she had her heart, spirit, and soul were renewed.
"Here I come Erasure! It's not over yet!" She shouts again following the sudden glow of the Unity Crystals and Underdog Gemstones she had been gathering as they pointed towards a particular direction.
=LOREKEEPERS=
Erasure was trying to use her power of Rewrite the remake the now white void that was once a dimension. Except it wasn't working which she couldn't understand at all because she had fufilled the conditions for it to work.
"This dimension is void of life except for myself. Why won't it work?!" Erasure says as the staff glowed then fades away frustrating her more.
"It's impossible. There's no explination except..." Erasure started.
"Eeeerasuuuure!" A female voice called out and Erasure froze at the sound of the voice.
She then turned and standing across from her was Sora "How...How? How are you still here?!" Erasure shouted.
"I wondered that to. Looking back at it now I know how I survived...and it's not just the spell that Maya did." Sora said as the Underdog Gemstones and Unity Crystals glowed brightly all of them circling around her.
"Maya's spell simply just channled the feelings of the people most important to me into me. There's one feeling in particular that is just overflowing." Sora said and Erasure screams and shots a blast of energy at her intending to erase her.
It head dead on, but it did absolutely nothing "That emotion...that feeling. Is our combinded determination!" Sora said as her morphor changed and she took out her battlizer data card.
"Power of the Elements, Unleash!" She shouts as a bright red and silver light covered her at the same time the gemstones and crystals collided with her.
When the light subsided Sora stood as the Red Warrior Ranger as some gemstones adorned her shield and some crystals went up her jousting rod. On both shoulder armor was crystals and gems a few also adorning her chest plate.
"As long as I got that and all the other feelings of those closest to me I can't lose this time Erasure!" Sora said.
The two charged each other staff and jousting rod knocking away at each other. Trying to at least damage her Erasure lashes out and Sora blocked with her shield, but it didn't crumble shocking Erasure.
Taking advantage of the shock Sora thrust hitting her several times before she backed away "I can't believe this, I won't belive this, I shall not believe this!" Erasure said.
"Well believe it!" Sora countered.
Erasure glared her down "Why do you stand in my way? I want to create a new and perfect world!" Erasure said.
The jousting rod that Sora had vanished as her longsword appeared "You want to create a new world? Then you start right here! With the ground beneath your feet!" Sora shouted running forward as her longsword changed now having several multiple colored sections.
"This is...I see so you've always been that sword." Sora said to herself as all sections of the sword glowed.
"Ha!" Sora shouts managing to strike and land a serious blow to her. Sora then took a step forward which echoed as the entire white area began to change now resembling the very rock quarry when they defeated Feral Diablo.
Backing away and looking up Erasure was in complete shock as standing up on the cliffside in rows was every ranger team that the Lore Keepers had earned a true power from. Standing next to Sora was her teammates all of them morphed.
"Who are you?!" Erasure says looking at Sora.
"Me? I'm just a girl from a town in California." Sora said.
Leo brought out the Justice Unity Crystal "Gate of Justice!" He called out as a gate appeared behind her.
At the same time all the ranger teams up on the cliff held out their hands as they are transferring their power out. Thousands of golden particales came together forming a large blaster that required tweleve people to operate and use it. It had a long cylinder body with a giant thunderbolt stamped on both sides and a multi colored top.
"Hey guys...Welcome back." Sora said smiling.
"We're not done yet. If we actually want to be back you know what to do Sora." AV says and Sora nods as the others grabbed the Final Ranger Buster while Leo prepared the Gate of Justice and Sora raised her sword up high as it glowed in all the colors.
"Balance of Virtues and Elements...Fire!" Sora shouted and swung the blade a rainbow colored slash going right at Erasure.
Erasure refusing to give up attempted to block it putting up a barrier "Ugh...urgh...T-This...is nothing!" She says as her barrier cracks.
"N-No! Don't break...I'll...I'll fufill what I was born to do." Erasure says and a new crack formed with each word.
Sora saw this and cancels her morph before going Phoenix Priestess as AV went Angel Princess as she prepared to fire the Final Ranger Buster.
The barrier soon cracked and the slash got through breaking Chronoa's Staff in half and it instantly burned.
"Gate of Justice Open!" Leo called out.
"Final Ranger Buster...Fire!" The other twelve Lore Keeper rangers called out.
A rainbow colored blast in the shape of a thunderbolt came out hitting Erasure and pushing her back towards the gate as Sora let lose her elemental powers "No! My perfect worlds! My perfect universes! This...this..." Erasure says.
"Is the end!" All the Lore Keeper rangers said together. Erasure let out one last scream as she was pushed away into the Gate of Justice which closed. Erasure the fusion of the Cursed Trinity was now sealed away with no chance of return.
It was then that the Final Ranger Buster, all the veteran rangers, and the rest of the Lore Keeper rangers vanished in millions of golden particales.
"Guys!" Sora called out fearing they were gone as she remained.
"Sora!" The voice of Cassie called out and Sora turned instantly tackled/hugged by said girl. She understood that they hadn't vanished and just simply returned fully.
The others hugged Sora to "So is it..." Eva started and Sora nods.
She then looked to them all "Just have one thing left to say..." Sora says and the others nod.
"Tale End!" All fourteen Lore Keeper Rangers said together.
Above them a large and glorious Rainbow of Peace graces the sky the could be seen around the world.
Their journey was finally, and truly over.
That's it folks for the final battle of the series! Erasure was probably by far the biggest obstacle for the rangers to have to overcome. Now though that only just leaves a single and probably the most important chapter. It's time to say goodbye, and find out what is in store for the future of our rangers. Stay tuned for the final episode everyone! Until next time this has been decode9!
