Arriving in Riverdale, California a red jeep pulled up to a church out of it stepped Maya who takes in a breath of air and smiles as she goes to walk in.
Walking into the church she saw Ingrid standing there with someone else. It was a woman older than Ingrid herself with choppy brown hair that reaches below her ears and blue eyes. She wore a yellow blouse with tan pants and combat boots while she had a ring on her right hand and a gold locket around her neck.
"Hello Ingrid. Hello Terra. I'm sorry if I'm bothering you with this." Maya said to the two revealing the other to be Terra.
Terra shrugs "It's alright. I just had to call Zoe to watch over my kid." she said to her and Ingrid nods.
"Even if the team went their separate ways I'm still you're mentor and friend Maya. So you think someone has the Elemental Saint Core of Ice?" Ingrid asked her.
Maya nods "I don't think. I know someone has it, and I think perhaps someone of your old team gave that person the morphor Ingrid. I just want to make sure my own hunch is correct." Maya said taking out a piece of paper with several dates on it.
"I see. Ingrid did the same when trying to discover the Elemental Saint of Heart." Terra said and signals her to follow as they headed off further into the church and going into The Tower.
=LOREKEEPERS=
In the HQ of the Lore Keepers Sora, Jasmine, Adam, Leo, and Peter were gathered together as Abby sighs noticing the absence of the other four.
"Cassie, and Eva are still down with the stomach flu. AV is still recovering from the glass injuries, and Alvin is out with his parents checking out a college for a few days. And Maya left to check something out about that bronze ranger." she thought and shakes her head.
"This is going to be a long day isn't it?" she then asked herself and walks over to a control panel.
"Today you will be in a simulator fight against another ranger team." Abby explained and they nod.
"Mind if one of us chooses?" Adam asked as Abby thinks about it before nodding and let's Adam come up to the control panel and instructs him on how it works, and after picking one the group walks into the simulator/training room while Abby remains outside.
"Now I suggest you all morph because the moment I start the simulator the battle will begin." Abby advised.
"Right." Sora says and they all morph into their base form as the team Adam selected appeared. It was the five core In Space rangers each of them armed with their weapons as Sora and her team did the same.
The two groups engaged each other as Sora fought Space Red, Jasmine against Space Blue, Leo against Space Yellow, Adam against Space Black, and Peter against Space Pink.
Jasmine swung her whip at Space Blue who rolled out of the way and grabbed off the side off the belt a Astro Blaster and shots a blue laser at Jasmine knocking her back and begins rushing in close firing the Astro Blaster continuously before getting close enough and began swinging the Astro Axe at her making her dodge.
The others were experiencing similar trouble especially Leo and Peter as the Yellow and Pink Space rangers were pelting them with energy blasts and rings from the Star Slinger and Satellite Stunner. Adam was having his own trouble as the longer reach of Space Black's Lunar Lance was keeping him from getting close enough to even strike. As for Sora she was just outmatched against Space Red.
In the end the Lore Keepers were all knocked out of their morphs, and the images of the In Space rangers vanished the simulation ending.
"Well that went just great." Leo muttered sarcastically as he and the rest left the training room and Abby shakes her head.
"It's to be expected. That particular team excluding red and silver was made up of veteran rangers, and the battle data of them was taken from records of battles they had been through from their time as a Turbo ranger and In Space ranger." Abby explained.
"Yeah yeah...well umm...I'm sorry, but I've got to go. Promised Cass I'd come back by today." Sora says looking to Abby sheepishly.
Abby sighs and nods "Go. I'm sure the rest can handle whatever comes." she tells Sora who nods in thanks before teleporting out.
The others looked to Abby who let out a sigh "You all can go as well. Just be ready in case anything happens alright?" she asked them and they all nodded to her before teleporting out while at the same time someone else teleported in Abby looking to person.
"Ahh…you must be Maya's old friend. She told me that you would be helping out here while she was gone." Abby greeted the person.

In the tower Maya was lead to where the special chamber where it told when each Elemental Saint present or future was to be born.
Finding a bronze colored plaque with a date on it and takes out the piece of paper Ingrid and Terra staying behind as Maya looked the dates over and cracks a smile.
"Found him? Or is it a her?" Terra asked as Maya turns around.
"The bronze ranger is defiantly female, and better yet I think I figured out Revered…Mildred's last words she told you Terra." Maya tells her.
"About how the Elemental Saint Core of Ice and the powers of that saint weren't ready to go to the Faithful Sphinx?" Terra asked and Maya nods.
"Revered…Mildred was right the powers were dormant, but the one they were meant for was actually already born. She was just rather young at the time, and for the part with the Faithful Sphinx well I think that connects with the job he gave me." Maya tells them as she took out the small box containing the gemstones she has been guarding for a little over four years now.
"I remember you telling me about those gemstones. The Red Beryl Phoenix, The Aquamarine Angel, and…" Ingrid says.
"The Cat's Eye Sphinx. I was told it represents faith." Maya finished as Terra nods in understanding.
"A faithful sphinx. Just like what she said." Terra said.
"Exactly, and I know who the other two gems belong to. I finally found the new Underdog Triad, and I know who the Bronze Elemental Saint ranger is." Maya says with a slight smile as they turn to leave.
"Are you going to tell them?" Ingrid asked Maya.
"I know I should, but now is not the best time. I feel that Diablo is going to begin making his move soon." Maya says to them.
Terra and Ingrid nod in understanding knowing what she meant and Ingrid looks at the time "It's getting pretty late. You can stay with me or Terra tonight if she doesn't mind." Ingrid offered looking to Terra who nods
"Thanks for the offer. I think I'll take you up on it." Maya said and follows after the two.
=LOREKEEPERS=
The sun rose over Legacy Hills as a new day started for the rangers who all except a select few arrived at The Great Library.
"Morning ladies." Leo flirted as Jasmine rolled her eyes.
"Morning lover boy." Jasmine said flatly.
"Well looks like you guys are chirpy this morning." Adam joked causing a few of the others to groan, and AV to chuckle.
"Please not this morning Adam. I haven't even had my morning drink." Peter said with a sigh.
AV giggles "I found it funny." she said as Jasmine rolls her eyes again.
"That's just because he's your boyfriend sis." Jasmine stated crossing her arms.
"Anyways anyone know why we're here? Did Maya come back from her trip?" she then asked as they took the elevator down and saw Abby there with another person who was sleeping on a chair.
The person appeared to be a boy of 17 who was only a bit taller than Jasmine with a bit of an athletic build to him despite his slightly pale skin and blond hair. He wore a blue jersey and jeans with white shoes, and the sound of others coming in woke him and he opened his eyes revealing them to be blue.
The teen let out a yawn before looking to them "Well...So you guys are the team Maya's mentoring." he said looking at them one by one eye's resting on AV last before looking to them all.
"Uhh...Alright who are you?" Adam asked confused as to how he knows Maya, and why he is there.
"Oh right. I guess Maya didn't tell you all I'd be coming while she's gone. I'm Evan Mitchell." Evan introduced himself as Jasmine crossed her arms shooting the teen a small glare.
"Doesn't explain how you know our mentor." she said as Evan sighs giving a chuckle.
"Yep. She wasn't joking when she said you are just like how she was. As for how I know her that's simple. I was a teammate, and second in command four years ago. Star Legends blue ranger." He tells them.
"Okay...Wait that would mean you would have been in Junior High!" Leo says gawking at Evan who rubs his head.
"Yeah, but anyways we're not here to talk about that. I'm here to help you guys till Maya gets back. Though I'm not the only one." He adds on as it was something that Maya, and one of their old mentors had approved of before he fell asleep in HQ.
There was a weird sound as someone else appeared in a flash of red. Then standing there was a man with short brown hair that had blonde streaks going down each side and brown eyes. He wore a red shirt with a light grey jacket over it and jean pants.
The man did the same as Evan had look them over while AV looked at the man in surprise "Well hello Avalon. You sure have grown." the man says with a smile.
"H-Hi Andros sir." AV greeted as polite as she could, and the man named Andros laughed.
"You don't have to call me sir Avalon. Though I must say it's a surprise to see that you're a ranger." Andros says as the other's looked confused.
AV glances to them "My uncle Tommy knows Andros. Andros is a ranger veteran himself." she explained.
"Oh. Well that explains it then." Adam says as an image of In Space Red took the place of Andros for a moment before fading away.
"I hear that you five could use some training." Andros said as Evan goes to the control panel to open up the door to the simulator/training room.
They walked in along with Andros and Evan, but all five got the same feeling that things weren't going to be easy. More than likely they were about to get their backsides handed to them on a silver platter as they heard Abby snickering as they walked in.
=LOREKEEPERS=
Meanwhile Sora was with Cassie helping her while she was still sick "Thanks Sora." Cassie said her voice raspy.
"I don't mind Cass. You shouldn't be pushing yourself to do anything right now." Sora said as she helped unpack a few more boxes.
"But...they're my boxes." Cassie pointed out pouting at Sora who giggles.
"I know, but I want to help. I know I don't have to, but I want to." Sora said and sighs.
"I want to spend as much time as I can with you Cass since well...you know." she then adds and looks to Cassie's calendar a date was circled ten day from the current day.
Cassie looks down "I'll miss you, but I'm just a phone call away." she told her girlfriend who turned around and pulled her into a hug.
"It's going to be different without you Cass, and...I..." Sora starts tearing up a bit and Cassie rubs her back.
"It'll be okay Sora." Cassie whispered assuring Sora who sniffled.
"AV probably feels the same way with Adam, and well the others are leaving as well." Sora says and sighs.
"You're going to be a junior soon Sora, and you are one of the most responsible people I know. Everything will be fine while your around." Cassie said and Sora smiles before letting out a tired yawn making Cassie giggle.
"How about we lay down? Sounds like we...both...need it." she then said letting out a few yawns herself. Sora nods and lays down on the bed next to Cassie who pulls Sora in as they both fall asleep.
=LOREKEEPERS=
Back at HQ the five rangers let out a collective groan as Andros and Evan were fine if not a little tired out from the battle that had happened.
"Oww...Yeah you guys are rough as a rock is hard." Adam said and Andros shakes his head.
"That isn't true. You all could have beaten us today, but there is something you have been doing wrong this whole time." Andros said to them.
"What would that be?" Jasmine asked a bit annoyed as Evan crosses his arms.
"You guys fail to adapt. Just because you have access to other ranger forms doesn't mean you will beat us out of the suit." Evan said as Andros nods.
"When you use another team's power you should let that power flow through you, and adapt yourself to it. Only then will you bond to it better, and make yourselves stronger because of it." Andros said.
"Another thing was that you focused on your strengths together as a team, but you also have to improve on your individual strengths. You won't always be together when you're fighting." Evan said.
"Alright alright. We get it." Leo said as Andros shakes his head.
"That's the thing Leo. You don't. Your team won't always be there for you, and sometimes you will have to make the important decisions yourself." Andros said as he mind wanders back to that one day.
Abby watches them "The type of sacrifice that can happen are multiple. A friend of mind saved me a long time ago, but because of what he did he was put into a coma for some time." He adds on.
Jessica shivers "Did he ever recover?" She asked and Andros nods.
"He did eventually." he replied, and it was then that the alarm went off signaling a monster attack.
"Well looks like we have to cut this short. Duty calls." Peter said as they all teleport out towards the battle.
=LOREKEEPERS=
Near the school a group of Shades and Gearz along with a mechanical monster. It was humanoid like and appeared female and was coated in white armor and the upper part of the face was covered with a white face plate. On one of her arms was a dial with different symbols on it.
"Well this place is as dull as it looks boring. I mean those screaming civilians?" the monster says as she points to the civilians fleeing.
"Unfortunately they've got to go...Ohh I know!" she says and giggle holding out her hand that had the large dial on it and sets it to a tree symbol.
"Tree's look much more lovely, and are actually good for this rock." She says and fire's a green beam from her hand. When it hit a person they let out a scream before their was a brief flash and standing in that person's place was a tree.
The monster let out a laugh and continued to fire, but stopped when she noticed five flashes of light and turns facing the teen.
"Ohh...my...HOW ADORABLE!" the monster exclaimed as she looked at them all, but the male rangers in particular.
"Uhh...Is she talking about us?" Leo asked as the group looks to each other not having expected the reaction they just got from the monster.
"I think she is." Peter said Adam nodding in agreement.
"Now go on. Shoo...I'd hate to have to do anything to you as I'm waiting on some rather important guests. Oh, and I'm T-Rein." T-Rein introduces herself.
The group looks to each other as AV steps up "I think it's us your actually waiting on." she says as she and the others take out their morphors.
"Unlock The Legend!" They all declared morphing T-Rein watched and lets out a sigh.
"Oh dear...what a dilemma. You are look so innocent and sweet, but you are those rangers who I was sent to handle..." T-Rein says as the Shades and Gearz go to attack them.
As this was going on another monster appeared this one a humanoid mechanical male in black and was much more bulky.
"Your too soft T-Rein. Leave this to the real terror." He says and slams his hand on the ground causing a small quake the rangers and minions falling down from it.
Jasmine looks over seeing the other "Oh great. We've got another one." Jasmine says.
"T-Rein is too soft on you rangers, but I D-Struct will not be." D-Struct says and holds out his hand firing a red beam the rangers dodged and it hit a tree making it wither and die as T-Rein screeched in horror.
"Note to self: Don't get hit by red beam." Peter says nervous.
"T-That's worse than the red ring of death." Adam says trying to joke not noticing a red beam coming towards him, and it nearly hit him. Yet at the last second he was protected by a pillar of bronze ice.
The others were surprised and looked over to see ES Bronze was their and her arms crossed looking at Adam.
Adam rubbed his head "Uhh...thanks, and I'll pay attention more alright." she tells her and she nods before turning to face the two monsters.
"Everyone team scramble now! Remember what Andros told us!" AV declared.
"Right!" The others replied different images showing up on their morphors.
"Unlock The Legend!" The five declared as they changed.
"Blue Ranger, Rescue Ready!" AV declared changing into Lightspeed Blue
"Dino Power!" Leo says having changed into Dino Thunder Yellow.
"Kick into Overdrive, Black Ranger!" Adam says revealing himself as Overdrive Black.
"Pterodactyl, Dino Charge Gold!" Peter says now as Dino Charge Gold.
"Power of Thunder!" Jasmine said revealing herself in a female variation of Ninja Storm Crimson.
Leo changed into Super Dino Mode and he and Peter moved first literally flying forward as both blasted at the monster in unison who was pushed back.
As this was going on ES Bronze was working her way over to T-Rain who was trying to guard the tree's from the attacks that occasionally missed on both sides.
"They're still people. They're still people. Can't reverse them if they get hurt." T-Rain says then noticed ES Bronze and flinches back in fear a bit as she also noticed that the blue ranger had followed.
"You can reverse them?" AV asked and T-Rain nods.
"Then why did you change them in the first place?" she asked.
T-Rain looks down "I have no choice. Yimsim and him want you out of the way, and...and I'm their most abnormal creation." T-Rain says as over with the others while they are struggling they aren't as much.
"What do you mean?" AV asked as Adam pounds the hammer on top of D-Struct only to be followed by a slash from Jasmine and the Thunder Blade.
"I...I refuse to fight. It is senseless and causes destruction for everything. I live to create and change things." T-Rain says and changes the dial firing it at a tree turning it back into a person who continues to run like they hadn't stopped in the first place.
ES Bronze nods in understanding as AV turns "...Think you can go hide for a bit? Maybe there's a way to work something out." AV suggested and T-Rain nods and goes off changing people back to normal as she went.
D-Struct sees this and growls "You traitor!" he shouts, but was distracted enough he didn't see Jasmine who hit him again with the blade and he stumbles back AV joining them.
"Everyone alright?" AV asked them and they nod.
"Peachy." Adam said grinning under the helmet.
"I'm starting to see that Andros was right. I'm starting to feel a lot more comfortable and natural in this form." Jasmine said
"So what was that about AV?" Leo asked.
"I'll explain later. For now we have to finish this guy." AV said as Peter nods in agreement. It was then that their morphors glowed and showed images of the five core In Space rangers.
The rangers looked to each other before nodding "Unlock the Legend!" They declared and changed into the five In Space rangers (AV Red, Peter Blue, Leo Yellow, Adam Black, and Jasmine Pink).
As they appeared Adam was holding a combined weapon. It had a yellow like handle with a black pole sticking out the back that had a silver crescent moon on the end of it while attached to the front bottom was a blue almost axe shaped weapon and attached to the top was a black pole like what was attached to the front, but it had a silver tip. The Axe and pole held in place what looked like a small satelite dish. AV was holding a drill shaped sword that had a blaster attachment to the bottom.
"Quadro Blaster!" Adam and the others declared getting ready.
"Spiral Saber Booster Mode!" AV says pointing forward taking aim.
"Fire!" All shout as the two attacks blasted the monster destroying it.
"Tale End." All five declared as ES Bronze watched before vanishing herself.
The rangers changed back to their base form as Peter noticed the quick retreat ES Bronze made "I know Maya said we could trust her, but why hasn't she revealed herself?" he asked as the others shrug.
"Maybe she's shy?" Adam suggested as the ground began to shake and there was a pulse of energy as D-Struct reappeared having grown to giant proportions.
"Abby. We need the zords." AV informed Abby.
"I can do better than that. I'm sending you two Ultrazords your way." Abby said as they looked to each other.
"Two?" Adam questioned as two quakes occurred as the Ultrazords appeared. The first was the Dino Legends Ultrazord, but the second one was something they hadn't seen before.
It's primary body and parts of it's arms and legs looked like they were made out of a spaceship, but there was a section similar to the grill of a car frame while the legs looked like a fusion between a red dump truck and a fire truck with small ladders on the sides of both legs. The left arm was green and had a similar appearance to that of the green racecar zord while the right arm was white slight resembling a cycle. In its hand it held a white spear that had a green spearhead on top with a wheel on the bottom of it.
"Say hello to the V-Max Ultrazord. This should help you to put down this guy for good." Abby said.
"Thank's Abby." Leo said as he, AV, and Adam jumped into it while Jasmine, and Peter jumped into the DLU. The inside of the V-MU was similar of that to the others, but in the background was the symbols of the Turbo, In Space, Lightspeed Rescue, SPD, Operation Overdrive, and Super Megaforce rangers.
D-Struct swung hitting the DLU knocking it back a bit as the others in the V-MU retaliated hitting him with the tire side of the spear before coming around to slice him with it.
D-Struct grunts in pain and stomps a foot on the ground causing a smalle quake making them a bit unbalanced. He lunged forward taking the V-MU to the ground with him and knocking the spear away.
Both monster and Ultrazord got up and D-Struct began swinging at V-MU which the rangers responded by putting their arms up to protect them.
"Quantum Blitz!" Peter and Jasmine called out as D-Struct was hit by a large blast of green energy and knocked away giving the other's time to recover the spear.
Inside the V-MU Leo summoned his weapon pointing it to the ground "And now...The finishing blow." Leo says the others nodding.
The V-MU began to slowly charge forward as the wheel end of the spear stayed against the ground seeming to gather energy as they went faster and faster toward D-Struct.
"V-Max Break!" The rangers inside the V-MU called out as it burst forward and hit the monster with the energy and wheel of the spear before the V-MU spun around and struck with the remaining energy and spearhead and the monster explodes.
"Tale End." They all declared as watching from afar was ES Bronze who nods before walking away.
=LOREKEEPERS=
As the rangers returned to HQ they saw that Andros had left while Evan was still there, but also that Maya had returned.
"Maya!" Some of them called out excited to see their mentor back and she looks to them smiling.
"Hello everyone. It's good to see the place is still in one piece." Maya said to them.
"Well I was planning on putting in a kitchen, but the others were worried about hydrogen and a match." Adam jokes and Maya rolls her eyes, but cracked a smile along with the others.
"Well enough about us. Did you find out what you were looking for?" Peter asked Maya.
"Yes, but right now we shouldn't be focusing on that." Maya replied her face hardening in expression and looks to Abby who nods.
"Thanks to Abby we have actually managed to discover why it is we haven't been able to find Diablo and the rest of his army." Maya continues as the rest take a seat.
"Thinking about it now I should have thought about it sooner. We can't find him because he's not on Earth anymore." she adds as most of them take in a sharp breath.
"Wait...you mean that he's?" Leo asked and Abby nods to them.
"Yes. Diablo has built a space station, and is commanding from there. I hadn't known what his plan is, but I do know why he wanted that meteor." Abby said.
"That meteor's core is a Rainbow Crystal. The crystalized form of Rainbow Ink. The same stuff he used long ago to rewrite history." Abby said and the group shivers.
"That doesn't sound good in any way." Peter said and Maya nods.
"It's not, and considering everything he's took plus that I think I know what he's going to do." Maya said.
"He plans on sending out the crystal's energy which is the equivalent of using the ink to the entire known and unknown universe. He will then link this energy to a book or worse himself, and then he will be able to change history however he pleases." she continues as the group pales.
"Yeah, and that never ends badly." Adam says sarcastically.
"Though there is time. Since the energy takes a while to reach out. At most I say we have ten days. So we need to find his space station and quick." Abby said as the others nods.
"Tell Sora, Eva, Cassie, and Alvin the situation. We are going to need all rangers on deck." Maya says as the group nod and teleport out.
Evan looks to Maya "I think they're going to be needing backup." Evan said as Maya nods.
"Yep. Just hope they don't mind coming here, and that you can handle being away from your girlfriend for a while." Maya says and Evan chuckles.
"It's alright. I'm pretty sure she will understand." Evan says.
Maya nods and smirks "Alright, but I think I'll let you call Aria." she says and Evan starts sputtering in embarrassment. Sure he had a girlfriend, but Maya still joked with him about his childhood crush on Aria.

In Diablo's space station Zisko was sparring with a solid hologram of Lore Red as they fought. He sliced his rapier clean through as the image dissolved into nothing.
He then glanced outside towards Earth "I'm coming for yah." he muttered as he then called on another solid hologram to spar against again.
Episode 20 and Arc 2 is officially complete now along with the appearance of a entirely new Ultrazord. Now I know this isn't likely what you all were expecting for an In Space tribute, but with the final arc approaching I felt it right to go the way I did. We also finally have revealed Diablo's true intentions, but are they entirely what they seem to be? There is also that bronze ranger around, and whoever she is she doesn't seem to want to give up who she is. Oh and T-Rain I have something planned for her as she will be seen again. Next arc though will begin with a final clash between two who have been at it for a while. So until next time this has been decode9!
