Jungle Mystics

by Maleficent-darkgoodwitch2416

On the way home from visiting Nick's adoptive parents, Udonna, Leanbow, and Nick learn that the latest incarnation of evil, Dai Shi wishes to destroy the Light. Will the combined forces of the Mystic Force team, including Clare, who has once again taken up the power of the Gatekeeper, and the Jungle Fury team be enough to stop Dai Shi and protect Nick?

3. Bedding Arrangements

Then RJ said, "So, why does Dai Shi seem so intent on killing Nick?"

"Because Nick has the power to stop him," Leanbow crossed his arms over his chest, scowling again.

Nick scowled. Leanbow raised his eyebrows and then nodded. "What are you two talking about?" Udonna demanded.

"Just once, I'd like for us to be a normal family—without someone trying to kill me every week!" Nick said, throwing his hands up, frustrated.

Udonna nodded in silent agreement.

Daggeron asked, "What are we going to do about rooming?"

"We make enough beds for all of us…" Nick began.

Clare swiftly interrupted, "I'll stay at Rootcore…with Fireheart and see if I can get Leelee, Nikki, Phineas, Toby watch out for us and send Itassis and Matoombo to help, if necessary."

Nick nodded and said, "So, seven beds."

Leanbow nodded in agreement.

Each of the rangers swiftly cast a spell to make the bed of their choice appear. Udonna and Leanbow combined their powers for the bed they'd be sharing and noticed how the rest of the Mystic Force arranged their beds. Nick's bed was closest to his parents. Udonna glanced at Leanbow who nodded. Nick had some issues—he was constantly scared that they would leave him again—and they had a special nightly ritual they would do to calm the teen. Then it was Madison's bed, followed by Vida, followed by Xander, followed by Chip, and finally Daggeron.

RJ asked, "Wasn't Leelee supposed to be Queen of the Vampires and Itassis and Matoombo two of the Ten Terrors?"

"Nikki—formerly Necrolai—Leelee, Itassis, and Matoombo all defected to the side of good magic," Leanbow explained.

"Really?" Lily was skeptical. Theo and Casey exchanged doubtful glances.

Nick nodded and said, "Leelee helped rescue—no, she led the successful rescue mission for—my mom, even after the five of us were jerks to her."

Vida added, "Matoombo chose to destroy the electric bomb because he didn't want to harm anyone."

Daggeron murmured, "Itassis used the power of courage to defeat Sculpin and help Necrolai and Udonna escape the pit and return to the surface world."

Leanbow finished, "And Necrolai revived Itassis so she could help get Udonna to safety. Necrolai then revived Daggeron and myself after we were killed by the Master."

The Jungle Fury rangers nodded in agreement. Then all eyes flashed to the screens. "We got trouble," Nick muttered.
