Maverick and Luke continued down the path in the labyrinth. They had now been stopped twice as they approached a third wide room, which like the previous two sealed itself up when they entered. However, unlike the other two this time, Romulous was in the room to challenge them. "Hello, Rangers." He barked,
"What are you doing here Fido?" Maverick asked. "Did you chew up Mordred's favorite slippers?" He said this with a smirk. Luke was surprised to hear Maverick quip like that, as it did not seem like something he would do.
Romulous fell for the taunt and swung his sword at the Rangers, who both rolled out of the way of the swing, going in different directions. "Mouth off all you want, Black Ranger, without your morphers, you don't stand a chance against me." Romulous sneered. He proceeded to charge the duo. He tried to stab Luke, who leaped to the side at the last moment to avoid the blow. The sword stuck into the wall, and Romulous yanked it free.
Maverick noticed that it seemed as though he made a deep gash on the wall. This gave him an idea. He called out to get Romulous' attention after properly positing himself. "Hey! pick on someone who's a fair fight you sorry werewolf reject!"
Romulous howled with anger as he charged Maverick. As he charged, he moved his sword in a circular motion, ending with it going straight up. As he got closed to Maverick, he began to thrust downward calling out: "Full Moon Slash!" Maverick jumped to the side and made the attack hit the weakened section of wall. The panel crumbled away, revealing a vortex.
"Aw, who's a good boy?' He taunted before jumping into the vortex. Luke followed and the vortex snapped shut soon afterward. Luke was hoping that Maverick knew what he was doing, as he was putting a lot of faith in him over this maneuver.
