The Rangers readied themselves for the fight against Master Xandred and co.
"Let's do it!" Hathaway said, reading to charge in. Just then, Aquarius appeared in between the opposing forces and walked towards the Nighlock.
"If you are to combat them, you need these." Aquarius said handing them spherical objects.
"Place them in your chest and it will give you a power boost." Aquarius said.
Xandred chuckled.
"This ought to be interesting." He and the others placed the objects in their chest and purple energy crackled around them temporarily.
"Good luck Rangers." Aquarius said before disappearing.
The Rangers now seemed hesitant.
"This just got a lot more dangerous." Mike said.
Mia turned to Jayden,
"What do we do?" She asked.
"I say we take out the fake Deker and Dayu then the turtle thing." Rilan said.
"There is no need for you to be concerned about them." A voice echoed.
Everyone, Nighlock included looked around to see where the voice came from. Just then two people had appeared from out of nowhere. A man dressed in white holding a sword and a woman with a guitar dressed in a what looked similar to a kimono.
Jayden stared at the man intently.
"Deker." He said. The real Deker had his back to Jayden and transformed into his nighlock form.
"This is payment for giving me a beautiful battle."
Dayu had transformed into her nighlock form.
"And for reuniting me with my love."
Deker stared his clone down.
"I will teach you to not dishonor my name!" He roared as he and Dayu engaged their counterparts.
"How convienient." Kevin said.
Xandred roared which redirected their attention.
"You still have us to deal with." Serrator said.
"This is it guys, let's finish it!" Hathaway said.
With a ferocious battle cry, the 14 Rangers charged forward.
The Samurai Rangers, minus Antonio fought Xandred. The Nova Rangers fought Serrator, The Lunar Rangers and Antonio fought the turtle monster, Aggreton.
*-PRNF-*
Jayden slashed at Xandred who blocked the attack and delivered a powerful slash to his chest. Kevin and Mike attacked him in unison but, Xandred blocked Mike's attack with the hilt of his sword and delivered an open palm to Kevin. Mike jumped away from Xandred and attacked again. Xandred merely kicked his feet from under him then slashed him across the chest.
"Ugh!" Mia and Emily attacked him from both sides.
"Air Wave!"
"Seismic Swing!" The two called out. Xandred was taken back by the attack. He regained his composure then swung his sword at Mia causing sparks to erupt from her suit.
"Gah!" She groaned as she sank to the floor. Emily charged forward and smashed her fist into Xandred's gut.
Xandred looked down at the small girl and cackled loudly.
"That's it?" Xandred lifted her up and slashed Emily in midair sending her reeling.
Jayden managed to get back up to his feet.
"I've had it! Mike! The Black Box!" He said. Mike managed to toss him the Black Box.
"Super Samurai Mode!" Jayden said catching the box then proceeding to transform. "Let's go!" Jayden said charging at Xandred.
*-PRNF-*
The Nova Rangers had their hands full combating Serrator.
Rilan and Zeili had attacked him from behind while Marias, Leonide and Hathaway attacked him from the front.
Serrator delivered quick punches to Zeili and Rilan, stunning them. He then spun back around and slashed Marias with his sword. Leonide and Hathaway attacked with their signature weapons.
Leonide lunged at him and stabbed at Serrator several times. Serrator brought his sword down on the Trident stopping Leonide in his tracks. Hathaway ran next to Leonide and slashed at Serrator with his Orion Saber. Serrator blocked the attack with his forearm and then punched Hathaway knocking him
backwards.
"You're moves are predictable!" Serrator taunted as he slashed Leonide with his sword. Marias shot at him with the Raider Gun. Serrator jumped up to evade the attack. Rilan drew his Raider Gun and joined in on the gunfire. Serrator let loose an energy blast.
The blast hit the two rangers knocking them backwards. Serrator landed and then attacked Zeili. She blocked his first two attacks but then began succumbing to his new power.
"You could never hope to beat me!" Serrator taunted as he delivered devestating strikes to Zeili. "Gagh!" She groaned hitting the floor.
Leonide and Hathaway got to their feet.
"I'm getting so tired of this..." Hathaway said.
"As you put it, let's kick his ass!" Leonide said.
The two nodded and charged at Serrator.
*-PRNF-*
Antonio and the Lunar Rangers were the only ones not having a problem with their fight.
Antonio struck Aggreton with his Barracuda Blade repeatedly then jumped backwards to avoid his attack.
Roxy and Megan ran at the Aggreton and slashed him with their Hazard Daggers. Blade flipped over them with his Hazard Saber in hand. He slashed Aggreton across his chest then set the setting to V2.
"Uragh!" He groaned as Blade slashed him again. Antonio ran in this time, with his Lightzord and sword. He slashed the monster again. Megan ran up to Antonio with her Nitro Scythe and jumped on his shoulder.
"Hyah!" She grunted. She slashed Aggreton repeatedly until he fell backwards. The four Rangers regrouped.
"Let's finish this guy and help the others!" Roxy said.
"Continuum Blaster!" The Lunar Rangers said. Their team weapon appeared in a flash of light.
"Fire!" Roxy commanded.
"LightZord! Scatter Shot!" Antonio shouted.
The two attacks hit Aggreton who blew up into pieces.
"Yes!" Megan said high-fiving Roxy.
"Golden!" Antonio said.
"Let's go help the others." Blade said taking off.
*-PRNF-*
The Nova and Samurai Rangers reunited beaten and bruised.
"Ugh...we can't take them with that power boost." Emily groaned attempting to stand up.
"Ugh...your right..." Jayden hissed.
"Guys!" Antonio called out in the distance.
"Antonio!" Mia shouted.
"I got the Shark Disc!" He said as he threw it Jayden's way. Jayden caught it then morphed down to his regular form.
"Kevin, here." He said handing him the Black Box.
"Nothing you do can stop the inevitable." Xandred said.
"Enough talk! Shark Attack Mode!"
Jayden said putting the Shark Disc onto his Spin Sword.
"Super Samurai Mode!" Kevin chanted.
The two transformed.
"Are all the theatrics over?" Serrator asked.
"Not quite yet." Kevin said using a special disc to grant the other four Samurai Rangers with Super Samurai power.
"Let's go!" Jayden said running at the Nighlock.
"Wow." Hathaway said.
"We still can't take those two without any extra power though." Blade said.
"I think I can remedy that. You see my buddy LightZord has had these extra discs for a while and they've been useless to us." Antonio said.
The LightZord beeped twice then shot out eight discs. The Rangers caught the one in their respective colors.
"What are these for?" Hathaway wondered.
Just then a flash of light engulfed them.
Their belt buckles overall size had shrunk just enough for the disc to clip onto the buckle.
"Guys, apparently those discs unlocked a program in your Ranger Suits called Solar Protocol and Eclipse Protocol."
Rey said looking at the Ranger Suits' specs.
"Solar Protocol? That's the thing that NovaCrusader was working on since making the ranger suits." Rilan said aloud.
"Well whatever those discs had in them they completed the missing programing for these Protcols. Try putting the disc onto your belt buckles." Rey said.
Tiffany spoke. "You sure that's a good idea? Those discs are giving off some serious energy readings. Putting them on could be dangerous."
"Well that's the risk we gotta take." Marias said.
"Well, let's do it." Hathaway said taking a deepth breath. He clipped the disc onto his belt buckle as did the other Rangers.
There was a brilliant flash of light. Once the light had subsided the Nova and Lunar Ranger suits had changed.
The torso had been covered by armor similar to the White Drago Ranger's.
The upper armor was white with gold lining going all around it. There was a golden sun in the center with a gem the color of each ranger on it. Their forearms had gold gauntlets with white lining and bended in the center. Their knuckles had been plated with metal.
Their boots had become pure white with gold lining. In front of them materialized silver,white and gold lances. The lance had two golden blades at the top connected by a chain.
There shaft was silver and had a white sun in the center with an open portion, most likely for the rangers to hold.
The Lunar Rangers weren't much different. The armor was the same, save for instead of a sun on the chest, there was a black moon with their color on the inside. The weapon was a white broadsword with all sorts of black engravings in the blade. The guard was like a fencing sword except a black full moon that covered their whole hand.
"This is amazing!" Leonide said observing the new features on his suit.
"Yeah, I can feel the power from this thing." Blade said.
"What are we waiting for? Let's get in there and help those Samurai's!" Roxy said taking off.
The nine rangers took off.
The Samurai's were slowly losing to the two remaining Nighlocks.
"Pathetic! I'm ashamed to say you defeated me before!" Xandred roared striking Jayden. Jayden blocked the attack. "Urgh! You're only winning due to that power boost!" Jayden said returing Xandred's attack.
They locked swords before jumping back and circling each other.
Hathaway had decided to intervene by slashing Xandred several times across the chest. "Miss me?" He said turning to Jayden.
"Whoa, what's with the costume change?"
"You can thank your friend Antonio for this. Now let's finish him!" Hathaway said taking up a fighting position.
"Agreed!" Jayden said doing the same.
Xandred growled ferociously.
"Enough of this!" He shouted.
Xandred fired off an energy blast which Hathaway and Jayden dodged.
The two circled around Xandred and began their attack.
*-PRNF-*
The other rangers fought Serrator.
"Let's get this guy!" Rilan shouted as he and Mike charged forward.
"Super Spin Sword!" Mike called out.
"Vector Lancer!" Rilan shouted.
The two delivered simultaneous slashes to Serrator.
"Gaah!" Serrator gasped.
"Our turn!" Leonide said as he and Kevin charged at him.
"Super Dragon Splash!" Kevin called out.
"Vector Tsunami!" Leonide shouted.
They blasted Serrator who barely managed to stay standing.
Emily and Marias were next.
The two slashed his chest before kicking him backwards.
"Vector Storm!"
"Super Seismic Swing!"
The two attacks knocked him into the air and a waiting Zeili and Mia.
"Super Air Wave!"
"Vector Tornado!"
Zeili's attack spun him around from the bottom to the top. Once he reached the top, Mia's attack blasted him back to the ground.
Antonio and Blade followed up with attacks of their own.
"Providence Sabre!" Blade called out as he swung on Serrator causing sparks to erupt from his body.
"One more time! Scatter Shot little buddy!" Antonio said. LightZord shot its discs at him sending him reeling.
"Roxy! Megan! Finish him!"
Mike said.
The two Lunar Rangers charged at him, Providence Sabres in hand. Serrator sent a sloppy energy attack their way which they deflected. Roxy got to Serrator first. Serrator swung on her but she ducked down.
"I don't think so!" She said bringing her sword across his abdomen. Roxy jumped backwards and united with Megan.
"Providence Break!" They shouted in unison. Their swords glowed the color of their suits. They each took their turn slashing Serrator in an X-pattern before turning around and striking a pose before Serrator exploded.
"Golden!" Antonio shouted.
"We did it!" Rilan said.
"Whoo!" Mike hooted.
Blade nodded and chuckled.
*-PRNF-*
Jayden evaded Xandred's strike which Hathaway blocked, giving Jayden a chance to attack. Jayden got around Hathaway and slashed Xandred across the chest then followed up with a round house kick. Hathaway attacked Xandred with his Vector Lancer. Then hit him with the back end of it, stunning Xandred. "Hah!" He grunted as he straight punched Xandred. Hathaway then continued his attacks until Xandred countered him. Jayden suddenly came in and blocked the attack meant for Hathaway.
"You can't touch us!" Hathaway said hitting Xandred. "He's right! Xandred this ends right now!" Jayden said as Hathaway blocked an attack meant for him.
"Enough of you're babbling! If it does end then it ends for you!" Xandred said bringing his sword back and swinging full force. Jayden stepped forward and countered. The force behind Jayden's attack broke Xandred's sword in half.
"Urgh! Impossible!" Xandred growled, bewildered.
"Hah! Game over! Vector Blazer!" Hathaway said. He jumped over Jayden's shoulder and his lance burst into flames. Upon landing, Hathaway buried the lance deep into Xandred's shoulder.
"Buh bye." He said as he pulled the weapon out.
"Shark Saber Full Power!" Jayden said slashing Xandred.
He spun around and he and Hathaway struck a pose as Xandred exploded.
"Its finally over!" Hathaway said.
"You did good." Jayden said extending his hand. Hathaway shook his hand and replied, "Thanks!"
The other rangers had ran over to the two Red Ranger.
"We beat em!" Leonide said.
Just then the real Deker and Dayu appeared. All the other Rangers except for Jayden dropped into defensive positions.
"Easy Rangers, we mean no harm." Deker said reverting to his human form as did Dayu.
"Thank you for the help." Jayden said.
"Think of it as payback for providing myself and Urumasa the ultimate duel."
Deker said.
"Dear, I think it is time for us to depart." Dayu said. Deker looked back at her and nodded.
"We'll be on our way now." Deker said before leaving with Dayu behind him.
"Strange guy." Blade said.
"You two do have your similarities." Zeili said.
"What? How?" Blade asked.
"Aw don't worry about it! We just pulled off a major victory! Don't you feel a little golden?" Antonio asked.
"Uh. No." Blade said.
The other rangers began to walk off.
"You guys coming?" Marias asked.
Blade had begun to catch up with them.
"C'mon say it! Golden! You'll feel a lot more accomplished!" Antonio said.
"I'm not gonna say that..." Blade said.
The sun had begun to set.
"Whoo!" Mike said demorphing after everyone else did.
Once again Roxy found herself staring at his eyes.
Hathaway's eye twitched.
'How much longer is he gonna be here?'
A/N: Well that's it! Whaddya think? Leave your comments please!
