To all my readers, if you don't like the way I write Mystic Force, then you don't have to read it and this goes for all of my Power Ranger fanfics, both current and future ones. I'm not gonna force you to read them.

A word of warning, to those of you who like to announce the next chapter (i.e. episode) title of the fanfic, don't ever do that. It's extremely annoying to me and I don't like it. If you continue to do it again for all of my Power Rangers fanfics, you will be blocked until I have posted more than enough Power Rangers stories in order for me to trust you again. You know who you are because it's not a joke and I'm not playing around. As always, no negativity and Happy Reading!

I DO NOT OWN CHARACTERS OF POWER RANGERS MYSTIC FORCE! I ONLY OWN THE OC!

Shoutouts:

Down in the underworld, Imperious was lurking around. "Time is running out." he said as he enters the throne room. "I must strike the master now, or I will never rule the underworld."

He then starts to pour a potion over the master but was stopped by Koragg. "What are you up to, Imperious?" asked Koragg, causing the potion in Imperious' hands to drop.

"Nothing. Just working on a potion." said Imperious. "I didn't know you down here."

"Nothing that happens in this pit escapes me." said Koragg.

"Of course. Such a loyal servant."

"And when the master rises, I will be his first in command, and you will answer to me." Koragg reminds him as Imperious scoffs. "Remember that."

"I'll never be able to destroy the master with Koragg around." Imperious muttered to himself. "If I can't destroy him, maybe I should gain his favor."

Out in the woods, Daggeron and Nick rolling onto the ground. Both were bound at the wrists by a rope and sparring with sticks. "Come on, Nick!" shouted Lily, cheering for her brother as she sat on Udonna's lap.

Daggeron pulls at Nick, causing him to go to the ground. "Sorry, young warrior." Daggeron said. "Next time, I'll take it easy on you."

"Don't even think about it." said Nick, then makes his move to get up.

"Why doesn't he use his laser lamp?" Xander asked Udonna.

"In bound battle training, only swords can be used and no magic." explained Udonna. "Daggeron is very skilled in this technique."

"Because I was taught by the best." said Daggeron. "Now Nick is going to be beat…I mean, taught…by the best."

"I see that humility doesn't set in as one reaches, uh, middle age." taunted Nick.

"Ooh!" said Vida as she and Maddie winced.

"Stop being conceited, Nick." said Lily. "You're letting it go to your head."

"Middle age?" Daggeron asked, the look on his face caused Nick to laugh and both went at it again.

"Nick's got this one wrapped up." said Vida.

"Oh, it's not over yet." said Xander as Nick knocks Daggeron's sword out of his hand and catches it. He then tosses it back to him. "Ohh, you had him. Don't give him back his sword." Vida said and both went back to sparring. Nick got himself hooked around a tree, causing Daggeron to fall to the ground with Nick aiming his sword at him.

"Good work, Nick." said Daggeron, congratulating him. "You took me fair and square, and you did it with honor."

"I just got lucky." said Nick, helping Daggeron up.

"There's no luck here. Your skill is growing stronger." Daggeron tells him as they take off the equipment. "In fact, you have all improved."

"Thanks to you." said Maddie.

"You were taught by the best, and so are we." Chip said with a smile on his face as he looks up at Nick. "Maybe one day we can be as good as Leanbow."

"Uh…oops." Lily said, as Chip's eyes went wide as what he had just said. Then Udonna and Nick both looked down at her. "Lily?" Udonna asked the young girl.

"I don't know anything. I swear." she quickly said, and Nick walks up to her with a serious look on his face.

"You weren't paid in cookies by any chance to keep something like this a secret, were you?" Nick asked his sister.

"No. I wasn't paid in cookies." said Lily. "Leanbow? Who is this Leanbow, you speak of?"

"Yeah, you're lying." said Nick.

"Dang it!" exclaimed Lily, then looks up at Nick. "How'd you know?"

"The same way when you lied about breaking my bike before coming to Briarwood. I know you very well, little sister."

"And yet, you still have no proof if I actually did that to your bike." said Lily, giving him an innocent look.

Chip and Lily then looked at Udonna. "I'm sorry, Udonna. I told Chip and Lily about your husband." said Daggeron apologetically. "They promised not to say a word."

"And I didn't…until now." said Chip.

"I was bribed into not bringing it up. All I asked was stories of him." said Lily, then looks up at her mentor.

"Yeah right." said Nick. "I doubt you were bribed into it."

"Just like the time you tried to mail me to another city when I was 2." Lily said.

"You tried to mail her to another city?" asked Maddie.

"She was annoying me." Nick explains.

"I tried doing that to you but mom and dad caught me." Vida tells her sister. Maddie was shocked at this and looks over at Nick.

"The post office sent her back." said Nick.

"Does someone want to fill us in?" asked Xander. Udonna looks over at Daggeron, not knowing what to do. "Udonna, he was a great man, a hero." he tells her. "Perhaps it's time they learned about him."

"Yes." Udonna said after a moment. "It's time we told you the whole story."

"I'm a genius, a complete and utter genius!" Imperious exclaims to himself.

"Do you have a plan, Imperious?" asked Necrolai.

"Yes, I've thought of a way to get the rangers' legend warrior power…for the master of course." Imperious said.

"You'll never get it from them." Necrolai tells him.

"I won't, but Koragg will." he added as they both looked over at him. "Now, get to the surface world and steal the legend power. It is the will of the master."

"Very well." said Koragg as he turns around. As he walks away, Koragg has another flashback.

[Flashback]

He's holding a baby girl wrapped in a white blanket as a little boy runs towards him with a red blanket being dragged behind him.

"I love you daddy." said the little boy and he then kisses his sister on the head.

"I love you and Briar." he said to the boy.

[Flashback ends]

"What are these images? I must stay focused." Koragg said to himself.

Back at Rootcore, Udonna begins to tell the rangers. "Before the Great war, Leanbow and I lived happily with our two children. Our eldest was named Bowen and our youngest was named Briar." said Udonna.

[Flashback]

"There, there." cooed Leanbow, settling down his daughter. Leanbow looks up at Udonna, smiling as Bowen runs towards him. Udonna and Leanbow held hands as she carries Briar and Bowen was in his father's arms, giggling as they walked. Daggeron and Leanbow decided to do a little training as Bowen stood near Udonna, Briar and Niella.

"Leanbow was my mentor." said Daggeron.

Leanbow was teaching Daggeron away from some houses, swinging swords. Udonna looks down at her daughter before looking over at her son, who giggled as he points to his father. "Ancient Mystic Mode!" shouted Daggeron and Leanbow, then both started to spar.

They then took a break and started to eat. Bowen tried to feed pieces of his food to Briar as Udonna tries to stop him.

"No, Bowen." she tells her son.

"I help daddy." said Bowen.

"You must let Daddy do it." Udonna said, causing Bowen to pout a bit.

"The forces of evil attacked, and we fought them on all fronts." said Daggeron. "Leanbow fought bravely, but Morticon and his troops were too strong. We needed a plan, so Leanbow met with Niella and myself."

"Leanbow, there has got to be another way." said Niella.

"You know the master is deceptive." Daggeron tells him. "There's no guarantee you'll make it back alive."

"I'm going." said Leanbow as he looks back at Udonna and his children.

[Flashback ends]

"He always did things his way." said Udonna, as she looks over at Daggeron.

"I remember, and it was always the honorable way." said Daggeron.

[Flashback]

"Don't forget. We're with you." Daggeron tells Leanbow as he and Niella walk up to him.

"Niella and I prepared for the final battle. Then we were joined by someone we thought was our friend."

"Teacher, allow me to fight beside you." said Calindor.

[Flashback ends]

"But I thought Calindor was your enemy." said Chip.

"He is, and having once been a dear friend, it made the betrayal cut all the deeper." Udonna said.

"I want to give Calindor a good beating with a baseball bat." said Lily.

[Flashback]

Udonna and the Mystics ran through the destruction as she carries Briar in her arms while Niella carried Bowen.

"When the battle was taken to the surface world, I knew the forces of darkness would be after our oldest child." Udonna tells them. "Both Bowen and Briar were born of magical blood, and with Bowen being the eldest child, he would have the power and the potential to stop their evil domination."

Daggeron takes Bowen by the hand from Niella as Briar was placed in his arms by Udonna. Leanbow takes his troops to defeat the master, leaving Udonna and Niella behind. Briar was crying as Daggeron takes her and her brother through the forest.

"I want mama." said Bowen, looking up at the man as they hid behind a tree.

"I know, Bowen. You will see her soon, I promise." he tells him. He made a promise to Udonna and Leanbow, to protect their children. Before long, Daggeron picks up Bowen and started running again through the woods.

"As I left with Bowen and Briar, I was attacked by Calindor." said Daggeron.

Daggeron and Bowen were thrown into the air from the attack by Calindor. Lucky for Briar, she was still safe in Daggeron's hands. He sets Briar down and looks straight into Bowen's eyes. "Stay here and protect your sister." he tells Bowen, who nodded at him.

"Give me that boy!" Calindor bellowed at Daggeron.

"Never!" Daggeron shouted as Briar cries and Bowen stands over her, crying as well.

Daggeron and Calindor continued to fight as Phineas hides behind a tree, watching them. Daggeron rangers up before attacking Calindor.

"Dark magic gave Calindor more power than ever." said Daggeron. "In the end, our magics collided, and we were both cursed. As for Bowen and Briar, we now know that Phineas found them and brought them to the safety to the human world."

Phineas picks up Briar and takes Bowen by the hand. He then looks back at the damage before jumping through the portal and into the human world.

[Flashback ends]

"So your children are alive?" asked Maddie after a moment. "Somewhere."

"Yes, somewhere and they are together." said Udonna.

"Phineas didn't separate them?" asked Lily.

"No and I'm glad that he didn't." Udonna said as she goes over to Lily and cups her face, causing her to smile.

[Flashback]

Leanbow casted a spell seal, banishing the Hideaks to the underworld.

"Leanbow led the fight and banished the armies of darkness to the underworld." Udonna said.

Niella runs up as the gates were closing. "Stay back! Seal the gates with a spell!" Leanbow shouted at her.

"No!" Niella cried out.

"It's the only way." he said as the gates finally closed behind him. Niella screamed as she casts the spell to lower the gates of the underworld.

"Then he continued the battle behind the gates…alone."

Udonna was by herself as she walks through the destruction that was left behind. On her hands, she held six wands.

"Leanbow and Niella gave their lives to save us all." said Udonna.

[Flashback ends]

"Their sacrifice will not be in vain." said Xander as he stands up.

"They will be remembered." Vida said in agreement.

"We'll never stop fighting until there's peace in the world." said Chip. Just then, Nick started to get another headache. "Ahh!" Nick cried out.

"Nick!" shouted Lily and a message from Koragg came through Nick's mind. The pain was gone soon as it came and Nick looks up at the others. "Koragg wants to fight." said Nick.

"We are ready." said Daggeron as he walks up behind Udonna.

"No, not you, Daggeron." said Nick. "You are to meet with Imperious…separately…to finish off an old battle."

"This is surely a trap." said Udonna.

"We're still going. I think it's time for some payback." said Maddie.

"How much payback are we talking about here?" asked Lily, causing the attention to be turned to her. "What? I'm just asking a question because I want to know this before I go on a full rampage."

"I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready for this." said Nick.

"Yeah." said Xander as they left.

"As am I." said Daggeron.

In as grassy area of Briarwood, Koragg stood there waiting for them. "Welcome." he said as they arrived.

"All right, what do you want?" asked Nick.

"Your legend warrior power." said Koragg.

"You must be joking." Xander said.

"There's no way!" shouted Chip.

"I'm not giving up mine." said Lily.

"We'll show you what the legend warrior power is for!" Nick shouted at Koragg as he and the others got out their morphers.

"Legendary Source, Mystic Force!"

"Galwit Mysto Neramax!"

"Excellent. Your new magic is strong." commented Koragg as he draws out his sword. "That's why I must have it."

"Never!" Nick shouted as they aimed their Lion Staffs at him.

"No way!" shouted the girls and the fight begins. Chip and Xander attacked but was deflected by Koragg until Nick knocks him back. In another dimension, Daggeron arrives to battle Imperious. "So glad you could make it." said Imperious as Daggeron comes to a stop and looks over at him. "Welcome to the dimension of wandering souls."

"With a name like that, how could I stay away?" Daggeron asked. "What do you want, Imperious?"

"Only to say I'm sorry." he said, then goes into his Mystic Mode. "We were friends once. We can be that again. I was too weak to fight the master's will. Please forgive me."

"And why should I trust you?" he then asked.

"I'm so ashamed of what I've become. I want to be good again." he tells him. What as though looks like when Daggeron is about to turn his back, Imperious shouted, "Fool!"

He then goes and attacks Daggeron. The fight breaks out and Imperious knocks Daggeron back. "I guess that puts a damper on us being friend's again." said Daggeron as he gets up.

"You could say that." said Imperious, laughing at him.

"Once more for old time's sake." said Daggeron. "Magical Source, Mystic Force! Laser Lamp!"

Soon as Daggeron fired, Imperious deflected the blasts with his fan. "Dark Power! Hyah!" shouted Imperious, sending dark magic towards Daggeron, knocking him back into the ground. "This is fun."

Blasts came around Daggeron, causing him to be blown into the air and crashed into the ground. "I thought your Leanbow taught you to fight better than that." Imperious taunted Daggeron. "He was always a fool. That's why he's gone forever, and I'm still here. I got so sick of listening to him talk about honor and valor. The teacher is gone, and soon his student will be, as well."

A dark spell seal appears beneath him. "Malorus Melavacardum!" chanted Imperious as he grew and laughs evilly. Suddenly, Jenji sticks his head out of his lamp. "Uh-oh! I know where this is going!" he said.

"Solar Streak Megazord!" shouted Daggeron. Back in Briarwood, the rangers were still fighting Koragg. The more the rangers fought Koragg, the more Koragg deflected their aims from ever touching his body. "Gove me your Legend Warrior power." demanded Koragg, with his sword aimed at them. "The master will grant you a place at his side."

"Forget it!" said Vida.

"We only use our magic for good." said Xander.

"That's right!" shouted Maddie and Lily.

"And we always will!" Chip added.

"Let's show him, rangers!" said Nick. "Code 1! Fire Storm!" Back in the dimension of wandering souls, Daggeron took a beating from Imperious. "Remote train car…go!" shouted Daggeron as he pulls a lever to activate the train cars.

"That was just sad." said Imperious as he knocks them out of the sky. "Now have a taste of what real power is all about. Hyah!"

He aims his staff at the Solar Streak Megazord and several blasts were taken. "Hold on tight, Jenji!" said Daggeron. "Furnace Blast! Hyah!"

The furnace opened its door and fires at Imperious, causing a few waves of dark magic to come out. "Oh, boy!" said Jenji.

"That's just what I wanted." said Imperious, sucking the energy from the megazord.

"Oh, no, Daggeron, we're losing pressure." said Jenji.

"He's draining our energy." Daggeron said, looking over his shoulder. Suddenly, Daggeron and Jenji had evacuated their megazord and were back on the ground. "What have you done?" Daggeron asked as Imperious comes back to the ground.

"I've stolen your megazord power, but its power is too strong for even me to handle." said Imperious. "Megaro Zangar Marodoza!"

"No, that's a forbidden spell!" Daggeron shouted out but was too late.

"I don't follow your ridiculous rules." Imperious tells him. "This spell will resurrect the souls of all the souls Leanbow ever defeated."

Black masses rose from the ground and grouped together in the air. "I summon the Chimera!" shouted Imperious and a monster appeared with heads on all sides of its body. "He possesses the strength of all those warriors combined. With his power, we will be unstoppable."

"You wretched beast!" bellowed Daggeron.

"It feels great to be alive." said the first Chimera.

"I'm ready to crush. Where do we begin?" asked the second Chimera.

"This time, we will be victorious." said the third Chimera.

"Patience, patience." said Imperious as he walks up to his creation. "First, get rid of that one."

Chimera attacks Daggeron before he could even react. The fight begins and Chimera continues to knock Daggeron back. When Chimera sends a blast into the ground, it knocks Daggeron back and into the ground. "With this creature I brought forth, I will take the rangers to the underworld and use their power to raise the master." Imperious said as he and Chimera walked up to Daggeron. "Isn't that a wonderful idea?"

"I won't let that happen." said Daggeron.

"You won't be around to stop it." Imperious said and raises his staff in the air. "This is your end. Good bye, old friend!"

"Oh, no!" said Jenji and goes over to Daggeron just as Imperious uses his dark magic. "Daggeron!"

Suddenly Daggeron was sucked into Jenji's lamp. At Rootcore, Udonna was watching the battle. "Daggeron!" she cried out.

In Briarwood, the battle still continued between Koragg and the rangers when suddenly Chimera came through and knocked Nick to the ground. "Nick!" shouted Chip as he and the others ran to him.

"What is that thing?" asked Vida.

"Whatever it is, I don't like it at all." said Lily.

"Imperious, you've cast a forbidden spell." said Koragg, seeing his handy work.

"You're all mine, rangers!" shouted Chimera.

"That's one ugly monster." said Nick. "Come on, guys! Code 1!"

A firestorm was sent towards Chimera but was redirected back, causing the rangers to fall to the ground. "That didn't even make a dent!" said Chip.

"It looks like we're in trouble." said Maddie. Chimera sends another blast, knocking them to the ground again. "This isn't the way." said Koragg.

"Be quiet. Send them to the underworld." said Chimera.

"Very well." said Koragg.

"What's happening?" asked Nick as he and the other start to groan when a dark spell seal appeared beneath them.

"It's a spell." said Maddie.

"A very painful one if I might add." said Lily and they went down into the underworld.

Down in the underworld, the spell seal appeared and the rangers were unmorphed. Hideaks grabbed them from behind, causing them to look up. "Welcome to my humble home, rangers." said Imperious. "If I knew guests were coming, I would've tidied up."

"Wow, really nice to see you guys." said Leelee as she appeared from the shadows.

"Leelee? They got you, too?" asked Vida.

"Don't worry. We'll get you out of this disgusting place." said Xander.

"Thank you. I hate it here. It's always dark and damp." she said, rolling her eyes. "Not to mention getting turned into an insect at everyone's slightest whim."

"Complaining again, daughter?" Necrolai asked as she appears behind Leelee.

"Daughter?" asked Chip.

"Can we keep them here, mom?" Leelee asked Necrolai. "Can we, huh? They have things that zombies down here will never have, like souls."

"Of course, my dear." said Necrolai. "Once their power is gone, you can keep them as your pets for all eternity."

"Sweet." said Leelee.

The others then turned to Lily. "Don't give me that look. I didn't like Leelee in the first place." she tells them. "I wanted to keep Leelee out of the store permanently, but no…I was overruled, remember?"

Back at Rootcore, Udonna became worried. "They've been gone too long. Where are you rangers?" she said as she looked through the crystal ball. What appeared on the crystal ball was dark magic. "What does that mean?" asked Clare. "Did you find them?"

"They've been taken to the underworld." said Udonna, her worst fear confirmed. "I've got to help them."

Udonna then takes out a black book. ""The book of dark spells"?" Clare questioned as Udonna sets the book down. "You said that no one was allowed to use that book…no one, not even Lily."

"There's no other way." said Udonna.

"But, Udonna, if you cast a spell from that book, you will lose all your magic." Clare tells her. "You'd become a human or…"

"There's no other way." Udonna said to her again with a serious look. "Now, you can help, or you can get out of my way." Udonna was then standing over the cauldron, creating the potion to get her to the underworld and Clare hands her the ingredients. "Fluidus Meloria." Udonna chanted as she stirred the potion. "Clare?"

"Here." Clare said meekly as she hands it to Udonna.

"1, 2, 3." Udonna counted out as she drops the ingredient in, then looks up at Clare. "I'm ready for the last ingredient, Clare."

Clare looks down at the last ingredient and gives it to Udonna. Back in the underworld, the rangers continued to struggle as they were standing on individual pillars that were draining the powers. "So nice of you to bring me the gift of your legend powers." Imperious said to them.

"You're not getting anything from us." said Vida.

"Oh, it's not for me. It's for the master." said Imperious as he points to the crystal in the floor that now shows the eye of the master. Lily screams as she struggles even harder to get out of her pillar only for Imperious to laugh evilly.

"I don't like it here! I don't like it here!" she said as she struggled in her pillar.

"That's the thing Leanbow sacrificed himself to defeat." said Nick as he looks at the master.

"(Grunts) Leanbow?" asked Koragg.

"That name is not spoken here." said Imperious, causing Koragg to growl. "Now, you will give the master to rise up and conquer." He then cast a spell to rush the process of removing the Legend Warrior from the rangers. "How delightful." said Imperious with glee.

"They'll be all right, right?" Leelee asked Necrolai.

"Of course." she said.

"The master will soon rise." said Imperious.

"They cannot defend themselves." said Koragg as he watches the rangers in pain as they were drained of their Legend powers. "There is no honor in this defeat."

"Stop that foolish babbling! This is our day of victory!" Imperious tells him, only getting a growl in return. Koragg sees Nick and Lily groan in pain. "This is the end of the Mystic Force." Imperious said as he walks up and laughs.

Suddenly Udonna appears in the underworld. "Stop!" she shouted as she stops the master from further getting the legend power.

"Udonna!" Maddie and Lily cried out, seeing their mentor. Udonna faces Imperious with her snow staff pointed at him and he knocks it out of her hand.

"How touching." said Imperious. "The sorceress comes to save her little rangers. Now you'll feel the wrath of the master."

Roaring, the master lifts Udonna into the air with his magic and hurting her. Udonna screams in pain as the rangers reach out for her. "Udonna, no!" screamed Lily as tears run down her checks.

"No!" screamed Vida as she tried to reach out for her. Udonna was then thrown to the side and Necrolai was pleased as what she was seeing. Koragg growls at the scene.

"Behold her destruction." said Imperious and Koragg continues to growl as he watches Udonna wither in pain.

[Flashback]

Udonna smiles at him.

Turning into Koragg the wolf Knight

Training with Daggeron

Holding his daughter as his son stands next to him and says "Hi Briar."

His son kissing his sister's forehead.

[Flashback ends]

"No!" he shouted. "Udonna!"

Koragg runs towards the master with his sword drawn out and stops him from harming her. The rangers gasp as he does this. "No!" he shouted and blocks the red blasts.

"What?!" questioned Imperious as he looks up from the ground. In Koragg's place, was someone in red Mystic armor. Udonna stops withering in pain and the pillars holding the rangers became soft. "No! It can't be!" said Imperious.

Udonna looks up as the man powers down from Ancient Mystic Mode, groaning. "Who's that?" asked Xander. The man then turns around and faces Udonna. "Leanbow?" she asked, couldn't believe her eyes.

"I can't believe my eyes." said Lily. "It can't be him."
