When I saw this episode on Shikinger, I was wondering why they didn't make the English version to it. It was funny. So here's my version. Mentions for our couples. This isn't a chapter, can't think of something for 'e'. Enjoy
"I'm going shopping." Mia yelled dodging the men in black as she darted out the door. Her manager had trying to make her take cooking classes but they weren't really helping. The Kuroko-servants hidden in the shadows- came with Lauren when she returned back to the Shiba House. And just in time. When Emily and Mike had joined the fight, their new enemy appeared. There were 5 of them, all half nighlocks. Their leader said he was the nephew of Sarator. They weren't sure if it was true but his power was almost the same. They also had power over the Rangers samurai symbol with their weapons. Takeru, their leader used his katana to control fire. Mako, who seemed to be very close with Takeru, controlled wind with her Tessen Fan. Kotoha, who looked innocent but her powers showed different, controlled earth with her wind shuriken (remember Sasuke used it in the fight with Zabuza for you anime fans out there). Chaiki, a hothead who was obviously with Kotoha, controlled forest with his Jumonji yari staff. And finally Ryuu, the weird one, controlled water with his yumi. Now the kuroko evacuated the people and did most of the house hold chores. But with Mia, they had troubles with the cooking.
"Guys!" Mike ran into the common room, "one of the Kuroko told me that Mia's cooking?"
"Oh how did we look this over? I thought her manager was making her take cooking classes." Kevin said
"They kicked her out." Jayden said
"I have no idea what you guys are complaining about. There's nothing wrong with her cooking." Lauren said, playing with her CatZord. Antonio had made it for her when he realised though a ranger, she didn't have a Zord since the LionZord went to Jayden. It was the say colour scheme but it rolled into a ball.
"Says you. I don't understand how you can eat the guck. She said she's going to be making some oriental food from Japan. I do not want to see how that turns out." Emily said, dreading how she'd survive without dinner that night. "Think the kuroko can salvage it into something descent?"
"We can only hope." Jayden prayed. Girlfriend or not, no one wanted to have Mia's cooking.
At the Sanzu River
Octoro growled under his breath as he poured sake for his new master, a half-nighlock. Takeru brushed his black hair from his face before he accepted the cup.
"I don't know what you're growling about. Be happy you're still alive thanks to us. And I do happen to show you manners unlike your last master." Takeru quipped
"But my master has been downgraded to a half-nighlock. Plus the nephew of the two timing snake Sarator."
"Look, we've been through this already, Sarator may have been my uncle but I'm happy he's gone, rotting in the deepest pits of hell. Splitting the world in two, please. A fool's dream." He said sipping the sake.
"Why are you here again?"
"I want to bring back my sister, Karou. We each lost someone important to us because of my stupid uncle and we're going to us the human souls to do it. They'll still be alive but they'll be missing a part of them that they can only hope to regrow."
"Private parts?"
"No you sea squid!" Takeru yelled throwing the cup at Octoro's head. He yelped when it struck his forehead, "Watch your tongue. Kotoha is near."
"So? Ow." Takeru threw his shoe at him next
"I think of everyone in my group as family, I will not have them tainted by your foul words."
"Takeru!" Kotoha's voice flowed around the ship. Takeru sent Octoro a glare that said, 'taint her and your steamed squid.' "Takeru, look at this." She had a human magazine in her hand. She flipped through a few pages, showing Takeru the pictures of happy families. "If we separate the kids from the parents…" she trailed off
"Content form being with their parents replaced by abandonment. We could use that. Good work Kotoha. You and Mako take care of this."
"Yes sir." With that she walked off back to the main part of the deck. "Nakinakite come aboard." A nighlock that looked almost like the one that took Emily's soul minus the mouths, came on board.
"Yes mi' lady?"
"I have heard you specialize in children crying?"
"Yes my Shiro-Oniko will make the parents think they are their children causing the children to cry. Plus just wait till you see my Aka-Oniko. You'll be on your back laughing."
"Excellent. Let's go. Mako, come on."
Back at the human world
Mia walked out of the grocery only to bump into Spike. He moved back with his uncle when his father had to go to Switzerland for something. (Get it? Cause the show is filmed in Switzerland?)
"H-hi Mia."
"Hi Spike. How are you?" Mia asked smiling. Spike felt himself melt.
"Uh, oh, um, I was going to do groceries but since I saw you, could you sign this?" he pulled out a copy of Mia's single CD, I'm ALIVE.
"Uh sure." She signed it and gave it back. Spike was about to continue talking when they heard a child crying. Mia looked and on the sidewalk was a young boy crying on the sidewalk. She walked over to him and kneeled, "Sweetie, what's wrong?"
"Mommy…mommy." He only said that but pointed to a woman walking to a car holding the hand of some white man-thing.
She went over to the woman, "Excuse me? But is that your child?" she asked pointing to the crying boy
"No this is my child right here." The woman said holding the white thing by its arms, as if presenting her child to his girlfriend.
"That thing?" Mia blurted out without thinking.
"Thing? It's rather rude to call someone's child a thing. Learn some manner's young lady." The woman scolded, "Come on Ryan let's go."
Mia heard another cry and saw another parent with the thing, their real child running after her father. Everywhere she looked, they kept popping up with the kids running and crying to their parents who didn't notice them at all.
"Nighlock."
"Ha ha," She turned and Nakinakite stood on a building, Mako and Kotoha behind him. "Say hello to my Shiro-Oniko. With these guys, the parents don't even realize that it isn't their child." He threw another white ball at another parent who had their child on their shoulders. In a flash of smoke the child fell to the floor, the white thing in the child's place. The parent continued to walk away, not even seeing their child calling after them. As they cried, balls of light flowed upwards to the two half-nighlocks.
"The feeling of abandonment. Oh this works perfectly huh Kotoha?" Mako asked
"Defiantly." She replied, the two looking mockingly at Mia.
Back at the Shiba house
Kevin and Mike were doing crunches, while Emily and Antonio held their feet down. The Shiba siblings sat on the floor in the inside dojo.
"If we can shrink our stomachs, we might be able to stomach the walking nightmare we're about to experience." Kevin said
"Guys, Mia's cooking isn't that bad." Lauren said, trying to defend the wind ranger, "tell 'em Jayden."
"That's a joke right? She got kicked out of culinary school, in her first week."
"What, I don't understand, is how you can stomach that stuff." Antonio said
"It's not that bad. Her cooking is really unique."
"That's kinda our point." Emily said
"Mia's just a little inexperienced. Besides, she's like a sister to everyone."
"Well that's true. The other night, I was feeling a little homesick and was playing my flute outside. When I was going back inside, there she was. I thought I woke her up with my playing but when I was going back inside, she hugged me and told me, it's ok to cry sometimes'. It wasn't until then I realised how much I need to let the tears out." Emily said
"See? So do you think you can survive her cooking?"
"No!" everyone replied.
"I'm having the Kuroko help out so it should be a bit edible." Jayden said when the Gap Sensor went off as well as his Samuraizer. As the group headed down the hall Jayden answered, "Mia?"
"They're at the grocery store. I'm going ahead."
After Mia hung up she opened her Samuraizer again, "Samuraizer! Go, go Samurai! Pink Ranger, ready!" she put her disk on and spun it, "Sky Fan!" with one blast, the nighlock was falling to the floor.
"Oh you are going to pay for that, pinkie."
"I'd like to see you try. You got some nerve stealing those kids' content."
"Whatever pinkie. Mi' ladies, permission to slice and dice her?"
"Let me take care of her." Mako's long brown hair started to fly everywhere as she pulled out her Tessen Fans. She jumped up, throwing one at her. Mia blocked with her Fan before she turned it back to her sword and took a swipe at Mako. Her attack was blocked by Mako's fan. She was then hit from behind by the nighlock. She fell to floor, in pain.
"Well I said I'd take care of her, but Kotoha and I need to get these soul parts back to the ship. Take care of her will you?"
"Yes. But please stay till the other rangers come. You'll be pleased you did." Mako and Kotoha nodded and disappeared to the top of a building, leaving the nighlock laughing before yelling, "Take this!" he let out a burst of power that would of Mia, had Jayden and Lauren not jumped in a used their Fire Smashers to block it. Emily and Antonio followed behind, and helped Mia up.
"Sorry we're late. Are you ok?" Emily asked
Nakinakite growled before turning around, to see Kevin and Mike bring their swords down. He blocked with his spiked staff and pushed them off. "You guys are annoying. So, say hello to my Aka-Oniko!" he threw two red balls on Kevin and Mike's back. They turned into red versions of the white things with a face mask.
"Hey, get this thing off!" Mike yelled. That's when they started crying, loudly. The two began to get to their knees
"They're getting heavier!"
"What did you do?" Lauren asked
"My Aka-Oniko get heavier the more they cry. And don't even try cutting them down. Lady Mako?" the nighlock asked. The wind nighlock opened her fan and threw it at the one on Kevin's back. It went right through it, turned a multitude of colours and then when it got to Kevin, the attack hit. "The damage goes on to its bearer. So don't bully my offshoots." Nakinakite ran forward, brushing off everyone with one hit of his staff, but when he reached Mia, she jumped back immediately. They held off when they pulled away, and dodging Mia's next attack, his spiked staff hit Mia so hard she went flying. She didn't dimorph but she was in pain, epically on her side. Emily and Lauren ran to her.
"Mia, are you ok? Hold on."
Nakinakite continued to laugh when he turned to block Jayden's attack. The two faced off, when Nakinakite was hit by disks from LightZord. With his back to Jayden, he was venerable to an attack, which Jayden took. What he didn't realise till the last second was that Nakinakite planted an Aka-Oniko on him. It took form and started crying. Jayden fell back, as the Aka-Oniko screamed its head off.
"Oh my, he was right. We would be on our backs laughing." Kotoha said, as she watched 3 of the 7 rangers deal with the Aka-Oniko
"Wait till Takeru hears this. He might actually laugh at this one. Nakinakite, you're running out of water, let's go." With that all 3 of the nighlocks disappeared. Mia finally felt good enough to stand.
"What do we do?" Lauren asked, watching as the boys were being crushed onto the floor.
"He said, the more they cry, the heavier they get right? I got an idea."
Back at the Shiba House
"Look how cute. Look at this." Mia cooed at the Aka-Oniko on Jayden, as she spun a windmill that made noise as it spun. It stopped crying and Jayden was finally able to breath. Emily shook at rattle in the face of the one on Mike, while Lauren took care of Kevin.
"They're a lot easier to carry when they're not crying." Kevin said
"Yes, but this will put you at a disadvantage. We will have to wait until this nighlock shows up again before we can remove these things."
"I can't take this anymore." Mike said flicking the Aka-Oniko on the ear, which caused it to start crying, which cause the other to start right after them. Mia held Jayden up as he was about to fall off the sofa, Lauren holding Kevin's wrist in attempt to stop him from falling over to. Emily stooped down and shook the rattle in the Aka-Oniko's face getting it to stop crying, the others finally stopping.
"That's a good boy. Yes you are; Mike if you make you one cry, they all do." Emily warned as she shook the rattle.
"She's right, keeping them happy is the key. Watch this; who's a good boy? Where'd Toni go? Peak-a-boo!" Antonio cooed at the one on Kevin's back.
"Well I'm off." Mia said, handing the windmill to Mentor.
"Where are you going?"
"I asked the Kuroko to get the kids to the studio. My manger, Trent, is taking care of them till I get there. I'll take care of them till the nighlock will appear again."
"I'll come with you." Emily said.
"Great, then Lauren and Antonio can stay here and help keep the kids happy."
Everyone nodded when the one on Mike started to cry. After fumbling, he began to pat the Aka-Oniko's arm, repeating what a good boy he was. As the two girls left, Lauren giggled at Jayden's attempts to calm his Aka-Oniko.
At the studio, Trent, a brown haired Hispanic man, sighed at the failed attempts of the Kuroko trying to cheer up the kids. They attempted a peak-a-boo only to scare the kids more.
"Now I understand why you were put in charge of teenagers. You can barely take care of kids." He said
"Kia!" Everyone turned to see Emily and Mia standing across from each other, kendo sticks creating an X.
"Ha!" Emily striked out. Mia blocked and aimed for Emily's legs. Emily jumped to dodge but when she landed she slipped, "AH!"
"Emily!" Mia cried when she heard the clapping of the children.
"They're just like the Samurai Rangers."
"That's so cool!"
"Nice." Mia whispered as Emily smiled up at her.
Trent looked pleased at what he saw. He pulled out a demo album and handed it to one of the Kuroko. "Think you can put the stereo over there?" the Kuroko nodded and went over. He put it in and pressed play
Time keeps on flowing
The past becomes now
The spirits of Japan start awakening
Exhibiting seriousness
It is dangerous if you downplay it
If you show an opening, there will be no tomorrow
Now it's time to go, Samurai
In order to protect those lives
The power of the words will explode
For a samurai
There is no treason
It is the pact he once made with his friends
Always serious
Sometimes regretful
There's a feeling to not be beaten even during practice
In the uproarious festival, the main stars appear!
Rising up in a flash
Now it's time to go, Samurai
We want to save this sinking world
Cut, cut, dance, dance
Seven hearts come together as one
In order to make these great dreams shine on
Today, too, the morning sun rises
Put your love and courage into your sword
The darkness that blocks your way
Let's take this challenge (let's take this challenge)
In the Sanzu River
Takeru caressed Mako's back as he looked at from her seat on his lap. "You and Kotoha did very well Mako. I'm very proud. Now anything I can get you?"
"Other than yourself? I was hoping on going to the human world to get something for Kotoha?"
"Anything for you my wind mistress." Mako giggled and leaned down only for the two of them to be interrupted by Kotoha's scream.
Kotoha watched in horror as she saw the souls they collected flew away, into a crake.
"Kotoha!" she turned to see Takeru, "What is going on?"
"I didn't do this I swear. All of a sudden the souls are going back to the human world."
"Not only that," Octoroo yelled from the side of the ship, "The water is decreasing!"
"Mako! Kotoha! Go back to the human world and find out what's making this happen!" Takeru yelled. The girls disappeared and Takeru slammed his fist into the post, shaking the boat. "Nakinakite don't just stand there, get going." The nighlock left, in terror of being ripped apart by the half-nighlock.
Back in the human world
Children's laughter rang through the studio as Emily, Trent, Mia and the Kuroko chased and played with the kids. Mia ran after a group of kids, her laughter mixing with theirs when she suddenly stopped and held her side. She grimaced in pain, the attack from before was taking a toll on her.
"Emily," she called from where the yellow ranger sat in the middle of a group of girls. The blonde's smile fell from her lips when she saw Mia's pained face, "I'll be right back. Look after the kids for me ok?"
Emily followed Mia out and watched she slid down, her back on the door, "Mia, what's wrong?" then she saw blood staining her shirt, "Mia you're hurt! Wait, that time he hit you; why didn't you say anything?"
"I'm fine. You go ahead, I'll be with you soon."
"You are not fine. You just rest ok? Everyone's a lot happier now, thanks to your idea."
Mia looked over her shoulder to inside the studio were a few girls were playing 'tea party'. "I wish I could of done that. When I was younger, I wanted to play it with my mom but she was never home. And then when she became paralysed I trained hard so I could be the best I could be. Singing with Terry was the only normal thing I did and by then I was too old to play 'house' and 'tea party' anymore."
"For me, whenever Serna had free time, we'd play. I guess it was an advantage to have an older sibling. Just when you think you can live a normal life, this happens."
"Times like this, I sort of feel like nothing will ever be normal. Mako can make me so mad sometimes, I feel like we can never win." Emily stared at Mia before Mia gave a fake smile, "Listen to me, I must sound like a person who hates their life. Let's go back inside." Emily hugged Mia. "Em?"
"You always care about people than you do yourself. You always give us hugs, now it time we give you one. Like you said, it's ok to cry sometimes. You feel upset so just go ahead, cry." Mia closed her eyes and hid her face in Emily's shoulder.
Emily sensed something and pushed Mia down. Three blasts hit the wall above them. They turned and saw the nighlock, Mako and Kotoha glaring at them.
"So you're the ones who have been returning the souls back to the children. I should of known." Mako said, opening her fans.
"Get the kids out of here." Mia yelled to the Kuroko and Trent. Turning back to the half-nighlocks she said, "I'm not going to allow you to hurt the children anymore."
"Samuraizers! Go go Samurai!" two Kuroko threw smoke bombs. Outside the studio, the nighlock, Kotoha and Mako jumped out scaring a few stars. The fimilar thumbing of a presentation drum and the flags with the Shiba symbol on it. A screen passed and on the other side stood Emily and Mia, in uniform.
"Rangers ready! Rangers together, samurai forever!"
"We are putting a stop to you right now! Nakinakite, finish them."
"With pleasure." He said pulling his spiked staff out. He ran towards them, Emily and Mia going forward as well. Mia somersaulted while Emily slashed him, Mia attacking from behind. They both kicked him in the stomach after blocking an attack. He backed up before launching a blast attack on them. As the two got back up, Mia dropped to her knees as her injury affected her body.
"Mia, are you ok?" Emily saw the nighlock come closer. She stud up and spun the disk on her sword, "Earth slicer!" she threw the shuriken only for it to be hit back to her.
"Emily! We can't do this by ourselves." In the distance she heard cry. They saw Jayden, Mike and Kevin trying to move but thanks to insistent crying, the 3 of them couldn't stay up even to draw their symbols. Lauren and Antonio ran after them, running towards the girls.
Mako laughed, "You rangers are finished! Wind scythe!" the four rangers cried as they were sent flying. "Now we can finally revive our loved ones without trouble."
"I thought we told you, you don't have to use your powers like this." Lauren said.
"You don't know what it's like to lose someone."
"Yes I do, Antonio!"
"Right behind you. Samurai Morpher, gold power."
"Go go samurai! We'll take care of the half nighlock." Lauren and Antonio jumped as they aimed attacks at the two girls.
"You two won't last a second!" Nakinakite yelled before letting out another blast. Mia and Emily split dodging the attack.
"Emily, let's combined our symbols. I think it can weaken him enough for us to take a hit."
"Right." Emily drew the symbol for 'mountain' while Mia drew the one for 'wind'. It combined and created 'storm' Nakinakite was lifted into the air.
Mia jumped in the air and the two spun the disks, "Dance of heaven and earth!" the two landed as Nakinakite blew up.
With Lauren and Antonio, Lauren kicked up her Fire Blaster and tried attacking Kotoha but she was too quick. Lauren kicked it up again and thrusted forward only for Kotoha to land on the blaster. "Kinda heavy huh?" Kotoha mocked as Lauren had trouble holding it. She always hated using the Fire Blaster because it was too heavy for her. "Try shurikens, they're so much lighter!" Kotoha yelled as she threw her earth shuriken at Lauren. She ducked down, throwing Kotoha off of the fire blaster as she kicked it up once more."
"Kotoha!" Mako yelled as she blocked Antonio's Barracuda Blades. She thrusted her fans up and slashed him in the chest before going to the young half-nighlock's aid. "Let's get out of here." The two disappeared. Jayden, Mike and Kevin, in uniform, ran towards everyone.
"Nice work you two. Now for the big one. Here Mia." Jayden said, throwing Mia the black box.
"Super Samurai Mode!"
"Lion foldingzord!
"Dragon foldingzord!"
"Bear foldingzord!"
"Ape foldingzord!"
"Turtle foldingzord!"
"Clawzord, let's go!"
"Claw Armour MegaZord! We are united!"
"Get a feel of my Aka-Oniko, super-sized!" the red nighlock said throwing two orbs at the Megazord which flew right past them only to hit them in the back. The MegaZord went forward with the weight of Aka-Oniko
"Heavy!"
"Cat foldingzord, Mega mode power!" a red and black mechanical cat appeared next to the MegaZord and began to rub it's self against it like a cat who missed its owner. The Aka-Oniko then got lighter. Jayden, Kevin and Mike pulled out their swords and attached the Tiger, Swordfish and BeatleZord disks to their swords.
"Battlewing Megazord!" Kevin pushed his sword forward causing the Battlewing to land on the back of the nighlock.
"Hey this is heavy! Get off!"
"Kevin what are you doing?" Mike asked
"Now we both have to same handicap."
"Kevin, wouldn't it of made more sense to attack from the sky?" Jayden pointed out
Kevin stayed silent as he realised this, "Uh opps?"
"Kevin." Lauren sighed, "But now your free to attack."
"Double Katana Strike!" the Battlewing flew up to avoid the attack. The ClawZord turned as the nighlock blew up and the Battlewing and Catzord stood next to it.
"Samurai Rangers, victory is ours." Mia said
"I'm sorry!" Kevin tried to apologize
"Oh stay over there." Mike yelled back.
Later, Mia and Emily watched as the children's parents ran to them as they came out of the studio. Mia smiled at the children's happy expressions.
Later at the Shiba house everyone sat at the outside as they waited for the Kuroko and Mia to bring out dinner.
Jayden looked around, "Where's Antonio?"
"He said something about being invited to do night fishing." Mentor said
"Lucky brat." Mike muttered at the Kuroko brought out dinner.
"Wow, Mia, it's looks great!" Lauren complemented.
"Thanks. I didn't have much time so I'm glad it came out ok. Go on try it." Mia urged. The boys and Emily slowly grabbed something with their chopsticks before putting it in their mouths quickly.
"Good, it tastes good." Mike said
Emily and Jayden nodded with pleased expressions on their faces
"Well the Kuroko made mostly everything, but the Tsukeawase, thinly sliced meat with relish, is my recipe."
Jayden made a sound as he put a piece of Tsukeawase in his mouth. When everyone looked at him they realised he heard the warning to late. The chopsticks fell from his hands as his eyes rolled back and he almost fell if the Kuroko didn't catch him."
Cries for Jayden to come to his senses where cried as Lauren put a piece in her mouth. She gave a satisfied nod to Mia who smiled back. Antonio was coming in but when he saw the commotion he slowly walked back.
Yeah, so this isn't a chapter but more of a filler with explnations. Please also, for 'F', I'm doing 'Father', should I do Shikenger episode 34 or make my own. You chose. Part of your world is coming up next.
