Chapter 5: Striker's Revenge
(The scene shifts to Sledge's ship. Voltaire, Sledge, Wrench and Striker are at the infirmary (presuming Sledge would have one of some sort). Wrench is seen tending to Striker.)
Sledge: You said that you would take care of the Power Rangers, but all I see is a pathetic weakling! I don't even know why I agreed to let Wrench upgrade him instead of chucking him into deep space.
Voltaire: We were merely caught off guard by the arrival of the Megaforce rangers, but don't worry. Once Wrench has finished with his upgrades, they won't stand a chance.
Sledge: You better be right, or I will see to it that the rangers are the least of your worries.
Wrench: The upgrades are complete. He should be ready to fight the rangers after a few hours rest.
Striker: No! Those rangers have humiliated me and my family enough as it is! I will destroy them now!
Wrench: But your body-(Striker teleports to Earth, taking several X-Borgs and Bruisers with him.) Oh, never mind. He'll find out soon enough.
(The scene shifts to Amber Beach. The Megaforce Rangers are seen at a cafe.)
Jake: It feels so great to be a ranger again. I almost forgot how good it felt to wear those spandex suits.
Emma: I know what you mean. I got a rush changing into those legendary rangers. Even after all this time, the feeling never fades.
(Their conversation is cut short as Striker starts attacking the area, causing everybody but the rangers to flee.)
Striker: Rangers! I've come back to finish what I started.
Gia: Back for more, huh? Fine by us.
Striker: I think you'll find this time will be a little bit different. X-Borgs, Bruisers! Show them whose boss!
Troy: Ready guys?
Others: Ready!(All of them take out their legendary morpher.)
All: Super Mega Mode! (Insert key, transforming them into their Super Mega modes.)
Gia: Time to switch it up! (Gives Emma a blaster, who in turn gives her a sword. Noah and Jake follow suit. The rangers charge at the X-Borgs, Slashing and blasting their way through them as if they were nothing. Afterwards, they turn to the Bruisers. Although they put up a struggle, they too are destroyed.)
Jake: Last chance to turn back, dude.
Striker: Never! (Charges at the rangers, who follow suit.)
(Troy, Noah, and Gia start a sword fight with him. They manage to get a few hits, but Striker manages to keep up with them. Eventually, he manages to push them off.)
Jake: Super Mega Blast! (Inserts two keys into his Super Mega Blaster and fires, hitting Striker who barely flinches.)
Striker: Please! With my new upgrades, you can't even touch me! (Charges his sword with energy then swings it, sending a huge wave of energy at the rangers which throws them back.) Ha Ha! Give up yet?
Troy: Never! Let's go Legendary! (Takes out the Lightspeed Red Ranger key.)
Others: Right! (Take out their respective lightspeed counterpart keys.)
All: Legendary Ranger Mode: Lightspeed. Lightspeed! Rescue! (Insert keys, transforming them into the Lightspeed Rangers.)
Striker: I don't care which ranger modes you chose! They will all fall to me!
(The Rangers charge at him with their V-Lancers. They all manage to land hits on him, which have little to no effect.)
Jake: Noah, are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Noah: Yeah! (Both press the numbers 861 on their Battle boosters, transforming them into their respective Mega Battle modes.)
(Noah shoots ice at Striker, immobilizing him long enough for Jake to run at him and hit him with his buzzsaw. This attack shatters the ice and make Striker stumble back.)
Jake: Yeah! How do you like us now?
Striker: Don't celebrate just yet! (Viciously attacks both Jake and Noah, demorphing them back to Super Mega Mode. He then proceeds to do the same to the other rangers.)
Troy: Let's try something else!
Others: Yeah! (All of them pull out the keys for the Time Force Rangers.)
All: Legendary Ranger Mode: Time Force! Time For! Time Force! (Insert the keys, transforming them into the Time Force Rangers. They then proceed to attack Striker with their Chrono Sabers. Troy manages to pull of the time strike, which only manages to further anger Striker.)
Jake: Vortex Blaster! Fire!
Emma: Chrono Blaster! Fire (Both shoot at Striker. They manage to hit him, but he reels back.)
Striker: Enough fooling around! Time to get serious! (Shoots another wave of energy at them, this one so powerful that it demorphs them all the way back to civilian mode.)
Striker: Now it is time to finish you once and for all! (Advances on Troy, prepared to finish him off. All of a sudden, he is blasted back. The rangers turn to see the Quantum Ranger.)
Gia: Orion?
Orion: Hey guys, sorry I'm late. Anyway it's time to finish this punk off. Mega Battle, Activate! (Transforms into his Mega Battle Armor. He then proceeds to engage in battle with Striker. The two are evenly matched, until…)
Striker: Uuuuuuuugh! (Sparks start to fly from his body. Orion backs off.)
Orion: Had enough? (Lifts his blaster to shoot him, But Striker knocks his hand away with his sword.)
Striker: This isn't over, rangers! Next time we meet, I will finish you! (Teleports to Sledge's ship. Orion powers down to civilian mode as the other rangers come to meet him.)
Troy: Thanks for the save, Orion. You were great.
Jake: Totally, dude! If you haven't shown up I don't know what would have happened.
Orion: Thanks, guys. Sorry I'm a little late. Gosei contacted me, but I ran into some trouble.
Gia: Well, all that matters is that you're here now. Come on, we need to get you caught up to speed.
Orion: Right.
A/N: And, done! Yes folks, Orion has finally made his return. I've actually wanted to bring him back in chapter 3 to save the rangers, but by the time I had gotten to that point I decided to have the rangers defeat Striker and save his heroic return for later. Sorry to those who wanted him to appear sooner.
Anyway, what do you think of the fight scene? Sorry if it is too short, but I'm not the best at writing fight scenes. Anyway, the reason why I chose Lightspeed Rescue and Time Force for the ranger modes is because those were two of my favorite seasons as a kid. I was really excited when I found out that rangers from those seasons would return in Super Megaforce and couldn't wait for their tribute episodes. As you can imagine, I was utterly disappointed. I was also upset that the Megaforce rangers didn't do a team change into either of these teams. Yes, they used powers from the teams, but they didn't do the whole team, so that is another reason why I chose them.
Before I go, I want to ask you guys something. As you may remember, BlackSpiderman 4 requested that I do a Beetleborgs mode, similar to the Metal Heroes Gokai Change in Super Taisen. He has sent me an e-mail with an explanation (two, actually) of where the powers came from. Before I do anything, though, I want to see what you guys think. Should I do it? I don't want to please one person but upset everybody else, so please let me now in the comments. Into next time, may the power protect you!
