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.

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, everyone was shocked at what they were seeing. Leanbow, Udonna's husband, was standing in front of them. "Leanbow, could it really be you?" Udonna asked as she runs up to hug him.

"I don't know how to explain, but it's true." said Leanbow. "I am alive."

"I literally can't believe what I'm seeing right now." said Lily as she looks at Leanbow.

"Join the club." said Vida.

"This is unbelievable." said Maddie.

"No, this is one of Koragg's tricks." said Nick as he walks around Maddie, pulling Lily with him.

"How?" asked Lily.

"Leanbow survived, but not Solaris Knight!" Imperious said, breaking the moment.

In the wandering soul's dimension, Jenji was getting out of the sand. "Ha ha!" he said as he gets up, then sneezes Daggeron from out of him. "Whoa, the things I do for this job. I mean, really."

"Thanks, Jenji, but trust me that was more unpleasant for me than it was for you." said Daggeron as he dusts himself off.

"Yeah, that's probably true. Now, what are we going to do?" Jenji asked.

"We've got to find the rangers." Daggeron tells him. "I'm afraid this whole thing is part of Imperious' evil plan."

"Okay, let's get out of this place. It just gives me the creeps." Jenji said to Daggeron.

"I thought cats like sand." said Daggeron.

"(Laughs) don't be such a wise guy." said Jenji. "Now, how are we gonna find the rangers?"

"With the help of an old friend."

Back in the underworld, Imperious decided on their fate. "Now, to finish what I started!" he said and sends a blast to which Leanbow deflects it back.

"Uthe Sasoray!" shouted Leanbow and a gold spell seal appears beneath them, taking them out of the underworld.

"Ughh! No!" shouted Imperious.

"You just don't want me to have my own friends, don't you?" asked Leelee in anger.

In another dimension, Leanbow and the others appeared. "We'll be safe in this dimension for a while." said Leanbow.

"Okay, am I the only one confused by what's going on here?" asked Xander.

"No." said Lily, pinching herself on the arm. "I'm thinking that I'm dreaming this moment. I just know that this can't be real."

"I'm a little mixed up myself." said Vida.

"Let me get this straight." said Chip. "Leanbow was Koragg and Koragg was Leanbow, and one of them…or both of them…just saved our lives."

"Wait, wait. This is the same guy who's been trying to toast us for months." said Nick, stopping Lily from pinching herself. "How can we trust it's really Leanbow?"

"You're right." said Leanbow. "I don't blame you for not trusting me."

"I trust you." said Udonna, then walks up to her husband. "I know it's you. What happened?"

"My tale is so incredible I'm not sure of it myself." he tells her as he goes over to a rock to sit down. "It happened in the last battle of the great war."

"You closed the gates to the underworld, and we all thought you were gone forever." said Udonna.

"Yes, but that's when the story just begins." said Leanbow.

[Flashback]

Leanbow was in his Ancient Mystic Mode as he fought the master.

"My plan had worked, and the master was sinking down into the depths, but he used the last of his dark magic to take me with him, and turned me into Koragg, the knight wolf, his most obedient soldier." explained Leanbow.

The master turned Leanbow's armor purple, transforming him into Koragg.

"Master." said Koragg as he bows down to the master.

[Flashback ends]

"I had no memory of my previous life." said Leanbow. "Everything I did was for the master."

"But you remember now." Chip skeptically said.

"It must have been the virus that infected my titan form." he then said, remembering saving the rangers from the virus. "It began to break the memory spell."

Lily looks up at Udonna with a hopeful look on her face. "No, you may not learn the memory spell. It's too advance for you." she sternly tells her.

"Oh…" said Lily, before looking the others.

"Then you must remember how many times you tried to destroy us, and Udonna, even your own wife." said Nick. "You almost destroyed her, then stolen her snow staff. Does that ring any bells?"

"Yes." replied Leanbow. "I remember it all, and I cannot tell you all how sorry I am."

"Nick, no one could withstand the full power of the master's dark magic." Udonna tells him.

"If there was any way you could forgive me, all of you…" said Leanbow, begging forgiveness from the rangers.

"Mnh-Mnh." said Nick.

"Of course, I…" said Udonna but fell before finishing the rest of her sentence.

"Udonna!" shouted Nick and Lily as they all gathered around her.

"You're injured." said Leanbow, taking Udonna's hand.

"I…used the book of dark magic to get to the underworld." she tells them. "I'm afraid I'm as vulnerable as any human now."

"You told me last week not to ever touch that book." said Lily. "Let alone read the contents of it."

"Good." said Nick as he looks down at her.

"You shouldn't have done that." scolded Leanbow. Suddenly an explosion appeared on the side of the cliff. "Imperious has found us." said Leanbow, then looks down at Udonna. "I'm sending you back to Rootcore."

"Oh, no. No, I don't want to lose you again." said Udonna, hanging onto her husband.

"You're in no condition to fight." said Leanbow.

"Please Udonna?" asked Lily.

"For once, we agree. Send her." said Nick as he and the others stood back. Leanbow sends Udonna back to Rootcore, where she appeared. "Clare!" she called out to her niece before falling to the ground.

"Udonna!" cried Clare and runs over to help her. Thunder clouds covered the sky as Imperious, Necrolai and Chimera appeared. "There you are!" said Imperious as they walked up, causing Leanbow to growl. "Get them, Chimera!"

"My pleasure!" shouted Chimera.

"Ready yourselves." said Leanbow, but suddenly the master had a backup plan. His used his dark magic on Leanbow, causing him to raise his hands towards his head, screaming in pain.

"No!" he shouted as he went into his Ancient Mystic Mode.

"Let's do it!" shouted Chip as they got out their morphers.

"Magical Source, Mystic Force!" shouted the rangers.

"Galwit Mysto Ranger!"

Once they had morphed, the rangers ran towards Chimera while Necrolai walks up to Leanbow. "I always knew you couldn't be trusted." said Necrolai. "Come! You have an appointment with the master."

"Leanbow!" shouted Maddie and Lily as Necrolai disappears with him.

"Stop!" shouted Xander, but they were too late. Chimera attacks them, causing them to fall to the ground. "We don't need him anyway!" said Nick as he takes out his magi staff. "We'll take you out ourselves! Power of the Phoenix!"

"Nick!" shouted Xander as they ran towards him after attacking Chimera.

"Nick, you're such an idiot." said Lily as she helps him up.

"Get up!"

Suddenly Daggeron rides on a unicorn. "Stop!" he shouted as he shoots several lasers at Chimera.

"Now what?" asked Imperious as he looks over his shoulder?

"Daggeron!" exclaimed Xander.

"But I destroyed you." Imperious said in shock.

"Oh, cool." said Chip as he staggers towards the unicorn.

"Rangers, the unicorn's name is Brightstar." said Daggeron as he mounts off and places Lily on the unicorn. "She can travel through all dimensions. If you run into trouble, she can combine with your megazord. Now hurry!" Daggeron runs up to Imperious as he sends a dark magical energy towards them, catching it in his hands. "You won't get away." said Imperious as the rangers disappeared with Brightstar. "Chimera!"

Chimera goes after the rangers as Imperious' and Daggeron's energies collided, forming a barrier between them as the sky clears. "What a pest you are!" Imperious said to Daggeron.

"And youre a disgrace to Leanbow's memory and his teachings!" said Daggeron.

"Fine! If you're still Leanbow's good little student, then let's settle this his way." said Imperious. "I challenge you to a bound battle, but this time, it won't be training. It will be the real thing!"

"Challenge accepted." said Daggeron.

Down in the underworld, Necrolai brings Leanbow forward. "I've brought him back as you ordered, master, the one who dared betray you." said Necrolai, pushing him forward.

"I am no longer your puppet!" said Leanbow and the master roars at him in anger. Dark magic came out at Leanbow and transforms him back into Koragg, the Knight Wolf. "What is your bidding, master?" asked Koragg, bowing to the master.

"(Laughing) Welcome back, Koragg!" she said.

In a dimension, Imperious and Daggeron stood in front of each other, facing their opponent. Jenji comes out of his lamp for the duel. "Ta-da! Its Jenji." he said and stands between them. "Now, remember the rules. Swords only, no other weapon or magic."

"Agreed." said Daggeron.

"But of course." said Imperious.

"Goody. Then, combatants, prepare for battle."

"Ancient Mystic Mode!" said Daggeron.

"Ancient Mystic Mode!" said Imperious.

"We'll just get you chained up. Bring on the chain." said Jenji, snaps his fingers and a chain appears around their hands. "In this corner, the noble Daggeron! And in this corner, the traitor known as Calindor, A.K.A. Imperious. Let the bound battle begin!"

Both of them started to battle, their swords collided. "Oh, this is bound battle at its best." said Jenji, watching them fight.

Back in Briarwood, Nick was on his knees. "I can't believe Leanbow!" said Nick, looking at the ground. The ground shakes as Chimera appears, huge as can be. "Here we go." said Xander.

"I got this one!" said Nick.

"Nick, wait!" Maddie cries out.

"What are you doing?" asked Chip as Nick hops on Brightstar.

"We can't use the Manticore, but I can still make a megazord! Hyah!" said Nick as he takes off on Brightstar.

"I'm just go out on a limb here and guess that I'm the sane one in the family." said Lily as both Brightstar and Nick go through a spell seal.

"You're lucky that you are sane." said Xander.

"Phoenix Unizord!" shouted Nick. "Come on!"

Nick charges at Chimera but was thrown aside. "Over here!" shouted the others as they formed the titan dragon, distracting him. Chimera goes for the dragon when Nick tries to sneak up on him. Chimera then blasts the other rangers, causing them to leave titan mode and power down.

"This one is stubborn as Leanbow." said the first Chimera.

"Let's take our revenge on him!" said the second Chimera.

"Yeah! Crush him!" said the third Chimera.

"I'm nothing like him!" shouted Nick as he runs towards Chimera, who then kicks him to the ground.

"Get up and fight." said Koragg who was then in his titan form.

At Rootcore, Udonna was laying down, breathing heavily as Clare walks in with a bowl of water and a rag. "Leanbow!" whispered Udonna.

"No!" said Clare as her aunt stands up and walks over to the crystal ball. "Udonna, you need to rest. Please." The crystal ball shows her that Leanbow had been turned evil again. "On your feet!" said Koragg.

"No. They turned him back into Koragg." cried Udonna, tears filling her eyes as she gazed at the crystal ball.

"Koragg! I knew you were lying!" shouted Nick.

"Let this be our last fight!" said Koragg. Breathing heavily, Nick gets up from the ground and turns towards the Chimera. "Fine! But after I finish with this freak!" said Nick.

"Never!" shouted Chimera, then fires at him. Soon as the blasts made contact with his sword, Nick rushed through the blast, towards Chimera. "Final Strike!" Nick shouted as he aims the horn at Chimera, finally destroying him once and for all. "Yeah!"

In the other dimension, Daggeron and Imperious continued their battle. "Sneaky." said Imperious as Daggeron used a move, then kicks him in the chest. "You're licked!"

"Watch this!" Daggeron called out as he spins to get up. "Watch your step!"

Down in the underworld, the master's tentacles roses out from the crystal. "Legend Warrior power worked!" said Necrolai in surprised. "The master is rising."

Nick was battling Koragg and as soon as they hit each other with their weapons, they went down from their titan mode. "This isn't over!" said Koragg.

"Whatever you say!" said Nick and ran towards Koragg.

"Nick!" shouted Vida as she and the others ran up to them.

"Nick, do you want my…" Lily started to ask.

"No! Stay out of this, Lily." said Nick. "This is between me and Koragg."

"You heard him, guys. I volunteered and he didn't want me to help." said Lily, as Vida pats her back.

"Is that all you got?" Koragg asked Nick.

"Hardly." said Nick, throwing him back before kicking Koragg's shield.

"They're pretty even matched." said Vida.

"Like they can anticipate each other's moves." said Xander. Koragg struck Nick with his sword, causing him to fall to the ground and his sword gets knocked out of his hand, making the others gasp. Koragg looks over at the sword. "You don't have a chance without your sword." said Koragg. "Now pick it up. I won't fight an unarmed opponent."

"You got it!" shouted Nick and picks up his sword.

"You're too angry." said Koragg. "You must learn to control your emotions."

"There were so many times you could have destroyed us, and you didn't!" shouted Nick. "Lily could have had a broken bone! She could've been in the hospital with a concussion! Tell me why!"

"Don't bring me into this." said Lily, feeling uncomfortable in the situation.

"I know why." said Maddie. "Because there's a part of him that's still good."

"Part that's still Leanbow." said Xander.

"Wow." said Lily. In the other dimension, the bound battle raged on between Daggeron and Imperious. Daggeron had the upper hand. "Yeah!" cheered Jenji. Suddenly Imperious used his magic and called for Jenji's lamp. "No!" shouted Daggeron when the lamp appeared in his hand.

"Surprise!" said Imperious and attacks Daggeron, causing him to power down from Ancient Mystic Mode.

"Hey, you cheated!" Jenji tells Imperious.

"Of course I did." he said, then tosses the lamp aside. "Do you think I care about fighting with honor? That is for fools like you and Leanbow!"

"You've learned nothing from him." said Daggeron as he gets up. "I'd rather die with honor than live without it."

"So be it!" said Imperious as he attacks Daggeron again. With the sword still in his hands, Daggeron retaliates by swinging the sword towards Imperious, stopping his attack. When Imperious stumbles back, Daggeron attacks again and the chain breaks. "You…have defeated me, Daggeron." said Imperious and starts to crumble. "But with my destruction, a terror will be unleashed that you cannot even imagine!"

At Rootcore, Udonna was resting again. "The master has control over Leanbow again." said Udonna, worried about her husband. "Either my husband will destroy the rangers, or they would destroy him. All is truly lost."

"Don't talk like that." said Clare as she walks up to Udonna. "You were the one who said that if you believe in magic, then anything is possible."

"But my magic is gone." she tells her.

"You may not be a sorceress anymore, but you will always be magical." said Clare as she covers her aunt with Nick's blanket. Udonna looks down at the blanket and remembers something.

[Flashback]

Udonna looks down at both her children. Bowen has his blanket in his hand while Briar was wrapped in hers.

[Flashback ends]

Sitting up, Udonna continues to look at the red blanket, before looking up at Clare. "This blanket." she said, holding it. "Where did you get it?"

"From Nick's backpack. I couldn't decide between his or Lily's." said Clare and Udonna rushes over to his backpack, seeing Lily's sitting next to it. Udonna looks through Lily's backpack and finds her white blanket. "I'm sure they won't mind if we borrowed them." she then added. Udonna smiles as she starts to head out of Rootcore.

"Wait! Where are you going?"

"I do believe! I believe in magic!" said Udonna, leaving with both blankets in hand, causing Clare to smile and laugh.

Nick continued to battle Koragg. "No rest!" said Koragg as Nick runs towards him and gets knocked back.

"Leanbow exists only in memory." said Koragg. "I am Koragg now and forever. Wolf Attack!"

His attack causes Nick to fall and power down. "Nick!" screamed Lily, wanting to rush over to her brother but was held back by Maddie.

"You have fought with honor, but now the battle is over." he said as he walks up. "Since you have proven to be a worthy opponent, I will grant a swift end." As Koragg brings his sword back and the others ran towards him, Udonna runs up. "Leanbow, stop!" she called out. He then looks over, seeing Udonna and the rangers.

"Don't do it!" she tells him, running towards them with Lily following close behind her. Udonna takes his sword down as Lily hugs her brother tightly around the stomach.

"This is Bowen and Briar." said Udonna, looking down at them. "Your children. Our children."

"What?" Koragg asked, confused.

"I don't understand." said Lily, looking up at Udonna. "What's going on?"

"What are you saying?" Nick asked.

"You both were with me all along, and I never knew." Udonna explains. "It's truly magical."

Koragg withdrew his sword and reaches out to Nick and Lily. "My…my son? My daughter?" he questioned as he tries to touch Nick, but he backs away. When he then tries to touch Lily, she reaches out for his hand. He then steps back and was back to being Leanbow.

"And I thought my family reunions were weird." said Chip.

"I am your mother." Udonna said to Nick and Lily. "It's true, Nick and Lily. I knew there was a reason the both of you came to Briarwood. It was to fulfill your destiny…the greatest witch and wizard of them all."

Chuckling, Nick looks at Udonna. "This is gonna take a while getting used to." he said, causing Udonna to smile.

"I would like to get to know you a little better." said Lily, grabbing her mother's hand and squeezes it gently. Suddenly the ground shakes and the red tentacles of the master came through the ground. Nick takes Lily and Udonna back. "Come on, rangers!" shouted Vida.

"No!" said Leanbow, casting a spell to prevent them from helping him. "This is my battle. I must finish what I started. Ancient Mystic Mode!"

"No!" Nick and Lily shouted.

"You can't!" screamed Vida.

"Leanbow, don't!" Udonna said at her husband walks over to the master. He raises his shield to block the attack. "Go back to the depths, foul beast!" shouted Leanbow.

"No!"

"Don't!"

"Leanbow!" screamed Udonna. Leanbow then takes the tentacles back into the underworld when suddenly Necrolai shows up. "No! It can't be!" she exclaims.

The master attacks Leanbow and he throws off the attack. "This time, honor will prevail!" said Leanbow. "I summon the power of good magic! Mystic Force Fire Strike!"

The master roars as his tentacles hit the walls of the underworld, causing the walls to crumble onto Necrolai and the Hideaks. "No!" screamed Necrolai as parts of the wall came on top of her.

"Power Rangers! Carry on my legacy!" Leanbow bellowed as he and the master go down. Out of the hole, six snowflakes appeared and floated over to the rangers. "Our Legend warrior powers." said Xander. "They're back."

"But Leanbow's gone." said Udonna. Nick and Lily walk up to her, Nick places a hand on her shoulder and Lily wraps her arms around her. At Rootcore, Daggeron was sitting next to Nick while Lily was wiping down the table in front of them "Imperious may be gone, but his departure is just the beginning of our journey." said Daggeron. "Your father said many times…"

"Whoa, wait, wait." said Nick. "You're telling me this like I care about him. Please."

"I know that your sister does." he tells Nick and both of them looked over at the girl, who then looks up.

"Leave me out of this, both of you. Whatever discussion is going on is between the two of you, I'm not taking sides." said Lily. "But for the record, I care about dad."

"He may have been our father, but we just spent the last few months stopping him from destroying the world." said Nick.

"Hater." said Lily.

"Don't start, Lily." said Nick.

"Yeah, yeah. I know when to pick and choose my battles." grumbled Lily.

"And the world would have been destroyed if he hadn't…" argued Daggeron when suddenly Udonna walks in.

"That's what I like to see…" said Udonna as she looks around. "Everyone happy and enjoying the day."

She then sees Nick not helping his sister. "But, Bowen, didn't I ask you to clean this place up?" she asked. "I see that Briar is doing what she's told and not you."

"(Chuckles) this is great." said Nick. "Lily and I finally found our real mom, and two seconds later, I'm getting chores."

"Yes, you are." said Udonna. "I want this place clean before your father comes home."

Nick then looks over at Lily and Daggeron. "I think I'll go feed Fireheart." said Daggeron as he walks away.

"I'll go too." said Lily, following him but Udonna stops her.

"You can feed him later." she tells her and Nick clears his throat.

"Uh…mom?" Nick asked nervously. "Leanbow's not coming home."

"Don't be ridiculous. Of course he is." said Udonna and Nick looks down at his feet. "No, I have not lost my senses. If you'd asked me yesterday, I would have given you a different answer. Yesterday, I thought you, Briar and Leanbow were lost forever, but I'd forgotten that magic works in many ways…not just waving a wand but also in ways of the heart. So, yes, I don't know how or when, but Leanbow will be coming home. Now clean up this room."

Nick gives her at least a smile as he walks away and she smiles after him. Udonna then looks at her youngest child. "You and I are going to do some potions." said Udonna.

"No! Not potions! Anything but potions!" said Lily as Udonna points to the cauldron.

"You're going to learn, young lady and one day, you'll thank me for it." Udonna said as Lily got the fire started.

"Fine, but I don't have to like doing it." Lily said as she marches over to the ingredients.

"You will one day." Udonna tells her.
