Hello! Welcome to Episode 4 of my Megaforce rewrite. I hope you enjoy!
Previously on Power Rangers Megaforce…
The Mega Rangers have encountered Madison Rocca, the Blue Mystic Ranger of Mystic Force, who gives them the ultimate power of Mystic Force. Because of this, the Tiger and Snake Mechazords were awakened.
*Carver House, 7:08 A.M.* (February 7, 2013)
(Cue Missing Persons Report by VideoHelper; 0:00-0:27, 1:01-1:20)
Noah spent his morning searching on his missing brother, Joe, while eating his breakfast bagel. All that Noah could find was that Joe Carver was an astronaut that went missing two years ago.
"Joe… Where are you?" Noah wondered, as he looked at his watch, and realized it was time for him to get to school.
(End Track)
Noah runs down stairs to see his mother, Karan Carver, drinking her coffee. It had just been her and Noah ever since the latter's father passed away in a boat accident.
"Is it time for school already?" Mrs. Carver asked.
"Yeah. I'll be home by 3 o'clock," Noah responded to his mother, as he headed out the door.
"Have a great day, sweetie!" Mrs. Carver said to her son. As Noah waits for the bus, he didn't notice that the hand, that appeared in the Mercury Sports Arena (from the last episode), was hiding behind a tree.
"Where…?" The hand said.
The world of Universe Alpha was a normal universe. Until the ancient enemy Caeltermare arrived in the world to attack humans. Universe Alpha's ancient guardian, Gosei, awoke, and found a new team of heroes to fight Caeltermare. And there names are...

*Harwood County High: Science Lab, 10:15 A.M.*
A hand writes his name in chalk on the chalkboard.
"Good morning. Your teacher, Mr. Burley, is out sick today. I'll be taking over for today," The man said, turning to the class, revealing to be Billy Cranston, the Mighty Morphin Blue Ranger. "My name is Mr. Cranston."
"Hey, Gia. Do you think we'll be learning some advanced stuff?" Emma whispered to her friend.
"Dunno," Gia responded.
"Both of you focus," Troy whispered to the two of them.
"Do you have something to say, Mr. Burrows?" Billy asked.
"No sir," Troy responded.
"Anyways, we're going to be studying on biorhythms," Billy said, starting his lesson.
Episode 4: Reassurance from Blue
*Harwood County High: Computer Room, 2:17 P.M.*
Noah was spending his last remaining minutes of the school day by still researching the disappearance of his older brother. He was so focused, that he didn't noticed that Emma walked in, with her dark blue denim jacket on, holding her camera.
"Hey! Do you want to photograph the moon flowers with me? They only bloom once a year," Emma offered, but no answer came from Noah. "Noah?"
Noah then turns to Emma, giving her attention.
"Sorry, I'll have to past. I'm just too busy," Noah declined.
"Okay. Well, have fun with whatever you're doing," Emma said, struggling with her camera equipment as she exits the computer room. As Emma leaves, Noah couldn't help but remembered what Gosei said
"The Power Rangers are at their strongest when the five of them are together."
"Strongest when we're all together, huh?" Noah asked himself.
Outside of the school hallway, Noah exited the computer room.
"Hey! On second though…" Noah said, walking to Emma. "Let me give you a hand."
"Thanks. "You're such a gentleman," Emma smiled, giving Noah the camera equipment to carry. Emma couldn't help but giggle."Let's go!"
*Harwood County High, 2:19 P.M.*
Noah and Emma were walking outside to photograph the moon flowers at Trang Woods.
"Are you don't need any help with that?" Emma asked.
"No, I'm good. Because… You can't tell anyone this, but I'm more than just a computer geek. I'm actually a superhero from time to time," Noah said to Emma, which made her laugh.
"Don't worry, you're secret is safe with me," Emma teased back, while giving Noah her thumbs up. The two then noticed buildings near the city we being destroyed.
"What in the world?" Noah said in confusion.
"Tensou, call the others," Emma quietly said through her Legacy Morpher, as the two ran to fight what presumed to be the work of Caeltermare.
*Mercury Sports Arena: Rooftop, 2:22 P.M.*
Another building was destroyed, and a Caeltermare with the motif of a gazelle landed on his feet. His body was brown, with yellow drill-like horns. His shoulders were yellow with lines, which included a small yellow protrusion, with yellow knee plates, with the upper with a purple circle on the center with two red ones representing eyes. This was Taurus Orygem (The design is an homage to Kamen Rider Imperer).
"Another one done," Orygem said, as Noah and Emma had teleported to the Caeltermare.
"Hey Caeltermare! Your destruction stops now!" Emma exclaimed, which had Orygem turned to the two.
"Huh? Who are you supposed to be?" Orygem asked.
"I'm pretty sure you've heard of us. But I'm just going say it to refresh your memory. We're the Power Rangers… and we're here to shut you down," Emma reintroduced her and her team to the Caeltermare.
"You guys are the Rangers? My partner has been seeking a challenge for you. I hope he doesn't mind that I start with you, puny girl," Orygem said.
"Her name is Emma, and don't you dare talk to her that way!" Noah shouted, trying to look brave.
"That's chivalrous of you. You don't have a good poker face," Orygem commented, as Troy, Gia, and Jake, had arrived, through teleportation. "Did you guys hid behind backup?"
"You okay?" Troy asked, and Noah and Emma nodded yes. "Let's do this!"
The five teenagers took out their Ranger Keys, unfolded them, and took out their Legacy Morphers.
"Go, Go, Megaforce!"
The five teenagers then inserted their respective Ranger Keys into the keyhole, and turns them open, which had the top to open, revealing a skull and crossbones design, with the skull being the Ranger Key, and the crossbones being swords. They then transformed into the Mega Rangers.
"Nympha Pedes!" Orygem cried, as a group of Nympha Pedes appeared. "Get them! But remember the plan!"
The Pedes charged at the Rangers, who got out their respective weapons, and charged at the Pedes. Noah managed to go through the Pedes to fight Orygem, who jumps away from Noah's blast from his Shark Bowgun. As Orygem landed in his feet, a halo appeared above his head, and Orygem entered it with his right hand, and the halo disappeared after Orygem had generated a gazelle horn-like drill gauntlet, called the Zelle Drill (The design of the weapon is an homage to Gazellestab, the weapon of Kamen Rider Imperer). Noah charges at Orygem who manages to dodge Noah's attack and did a stabbing motion at his chest, sending him flying to the metal stairs of the arena.
"You were the one hiding behind backup!" Noah exclaimed.
"Really, that's the best you got?" A masculine voice asked, and Noah turned to see a young man, who stepped out of the shadows, he was wearing a black trench coat with a red shirt underneath and blue jeans. "I've seen kids having better comeback sentences than what you just said."
"Who are you?" Noah asked.
"My name is Kennedy. But you can call me…" The young man introduced himself, as he transformed into a Caeltermare with the motif of a mantis. His eyes were red with his head having sickle-like antennas. The body was bright green, with the chest having black mantis leg designs on the side with a red heart at the center. There were silver skull armor plates on his knees and elbows, with red sickles on his wrist, three red spikes on the top of his legs, and his feet having black on the side of each foot with a single red claw at the end. "Propheta Cruentus."
This was the Mantis Caeltermare, Propheta Cruentus (The design is an homage to the Shocker monster, Mantis Man, with a bit of Kamen Rider Chalice).
"Would you mind if we clashed blades. Guns are too quick for someone who prefers to fight the old-fashioned way," Cruentus suggested, with Noah responding by throwing his Shark Bowgun in the air, taking out his Mega Blaster, and converting it to its Saber Mode. "Come at me. I like a good challenge."
"Then get ready for the challenge of your life!" Noah exclaimed as he charged at Cruentus, who blocks his slash attempt. Cruentus managed to overpower Noah, due to the Blue Ranger's inexperience with a sword.
"Get up. You can do better than that," Cruentus said, and Noah got up and charged at Cruentus, both clashing blades again
Down on the ground of the Sports Arena, the rest of the Rangers were dealing with the Nympha Pedes.
"Keep fighting! We have to power through these guys so we can go and find Noah!" Troy exclaimed to his team, slashing through Pedes with his Dragon Sword.
"That guy sure did a number on him!" Jake said, striking down a horde of Pedes with his Snake Axe.
Taurus Orygem then landed on the ground, with the Zelle Drill.
"Anyone want to fight me?" Orygem asked, and Gia and Emma responded by taking out their Legacy Morphers, dialing their respective numbers, and pressing the access button, summoning their respective weapons, the Tiger Claw and Phoenix Shot, respectively. Emma blasted at Orygem, who blocks them with his Zelle Drill, which has Gia slash with her Tiger Claw, when Emma caused a diversion. However, Orygem managed to block the attack. "Trusting each other unconditionally for an attack. I'm guessing both of you are best friends."
"Now!" Gia exclaimed, as Gia moved out of the way, as Emma jumped and fired her Phoenix Shot at Orygem, causing sparks to fly from Orygem's chest, sending him flying to the stairs. Orygem then jumped away from the two.
"Wait!" Emma exclaimed, as her and Gia followed Orygem.
Noah was struggling with Cruentus, due to the latter's incredible agility and use of his knife-like sickles.
"Your skills with the sword… are terrible," Cruentus said, as his right knife-like sickle and Noah's Mega Saber met with each other. "Can you actually hold your own when I unleashed my ultimate attack?!"
Cruentus then used his left hand to punch Noah in the stomach, sending him stumbling backwards,
"Ultimate attack… What's that suppose to mean?!" Noah asked, as Cruentus had his knife-like sickles glow green, with a circle of blades emerging.
"Blades of Infinity… Go!" Cruentus cried, as the blades when straight for Noah, one at a time. Noah tried his best in deflecting the blades, but lost due to Cruentus, laughing due to the fun he was having, using his knife-like sickles to slash at him like an x, causing Noah to fall and demorph, having pain in his chest due to the impact of Cruentus' cross slash. "Are you giving up so soon?"
(Cue Conspiracy by VideoHelper; 0:00-0:28, 0:57-1:22)
Orygem was then sent flying next to Cruentus.
"What?" Cruentus questioned, before he saw the Rangers running to Noah.
"Back off, Caeltermare!" Troy cried.
"You pests?" Cruentus asked.
"Sorry. I let my guard down," Orygem apologized. "But I did made an observation."
"Good. At least some progress has been made. As for the rest of you… I'll kill you all later when it's your turn," Cruentus said, as he and Orygem turned their backs on them.
"Yeah! And next time you'll be up against all five of us!" Gia exclaimed.
"No… Just one," Cruentus responded.
"What are you talking about?!" Jake asked, as Cruentus turned to Noah, transforming back to his human form, Kennedy.
"We will finish our duel, Blue Ranger. I would've given you a 10 second break if it weren't for you allies getting in the way. Don't worry. They'll be next once I win. Meet me on the beach in 48 hours. I've giving you the extra day for some extra training. Until then, I hope you'll be more of a challenge than you were today," Kennedy said, as he turned an walk away.
"Wait!" Emma exclaimed, as Orygem then slashed her on her right side, with his Zelle Drill.
"The fun is just beginning," Orygem said, as he leaped from the Rangers, escaping. The rest of the Rangers demorphed, and Gia runs to her friend, soon after the team demorphs.
(End Track)
"Emma! Are you okay?" Gia asked.
"I'm fine. It didn't hurt that much," Emma reassured her friend.
"I've got to go after him," Noah said, trying to stand, but still trying to hold his wounds.
"Just ignore him," Troy suggested to Noah. "He's playing with your mind."
"No. That Mantis Caeltermare has a point. I have to prove that I'm not weak," Noah said.
"Noah, come on. Don't be ridiculous. We're a team," Jake said to Noah.
"I'll see you later," Noah said, walking away. Unknown to the team, Billy was watching them.
"And so I must pass the torch if my learning," Billy said to himself, before walking away himself.
"I think we should go after him," Emma suggested.
"Why?" Troy asked.
"Isn't it obvious. We're his friends," Emma explained.
"We're not friends. Just teammates. That's all we'll be," Troy said.
"What are you saying? You were the one who said we fight so we can go home and see our loved ones!" Emma said.
"We're not friends because we're Rangers," Troy pointed out. "We're just teammates. That's all."
As Noah exists the Sports Arena, he bumps into someone, knocking himself on the ground.
"Are you okay?" The person asked, with Noah recognizing the voice. Noah saw that the person was an African-American with black hair, and was wearing a dark blue sweater with blue jeans.
"Joe?" Noah asked.
"In the flesh," Joe smiled, offering Noah's hand, who, unhesitatingly, takes it.
*St. John Park, 3:58 P.M.*
(Cue Once No People by VideoHelper; 0:00-1:08)
Noah and Joe were on the swings reminiscing on the times they had when Joe disappeared.
"Joe… Why did you disappear? You close to becoming an astronaut. It was your dream. Why did just vanish?" Noah asked. "Mom was worried about ever since you disappeared."
"I had to get off the radar," Joe explained. "You won't believe if I told you this… Monsters were after us. I don't know why… I had to disappear to keep you and Mom safe. You don't believe me, do you?"
"No. I believe you. I've… heard of these monsters. Are they called Caeltermare?" Noah asked.
"Yes. How did you know?" Joe asked.
"I've heard and researched them," Noah explained. "Mom is going to be happy when she sees that you're…"
"No!" Joe shouted, cutting Noah off. "She must never know. It can put her in danger. But, I want you to meet with someone. He's someone who knows about Caeltermare. He said he's discovered three powerful Caeltermare. He said they're called Elemental Lords. He wants us to meet with him to discuss about these Elemental Lords on Saturday."
"Okay. I'll be there," Noah said.
"I know you will," Joe smiled.
(End Track)
*Harwood County High, 2:09 A.M.* (February 8, 2013)
Jake was walking down the hallway, and goes to the computer room to check on Noah.
"Bro!" Jake said, but Noah wasn't in the computer room, so Jake closed the door. Jake then noticed Emma walking down the school stairs, after her last class.
"Hey!" Jake exclaimed, getting Emma's attention, as they went to talk to each other. "Have you seen Noah?"
"He's not in the computer room?" Emma asked.
"No," Jake said.
"He was really upset with himself yesterday. I mean that Mantis Caeltermare seriously struck a raw note. Where did you think he is?" Emma asked.
"If I know Noah, he's practicing. Whenever he thinks he's not good at something, he's working on become the best at it. That's why he's great in science," Jake said, thinking of where Noah might be. "Let's go find him."
Then, Mr. Burley, fully recovered from his sickness, exited his office and walks to the two.
"Hey, you! Um, what's your name again?" Mr. Burley asked.
"Me or her?" Jake asked.
"You, James," Mr. Burley said.
"It's Jake," Jake corrected Mr. Burley.
"Good. I need you to help with my electro dynamometer," Mr. Burley said, walking back to his office.
"His what?" Jake said in confusion, before turning to Emma.
"Don't worry. I'll find him," Emma reassured Jake, as she headed out to find Noah.
"How can I help you, Mr. Burley?" Jake asked, as he entered his office.
*Trang Woods, 3:10 P.M.*
At Trang Woods, Noah was holding two swords in his hand. One was his Mega Blaster, in Saber Mode, and the other was a spare sword that he found.
"Just focus. You can do this," Noah thought, and Emma stopped her biking when she saw Noah, taking of her biker helmet. Noah then opened his eyes (Cue Pipe to Teeth Impact by VideoHelper, 0:00-0:22, 1:08-1:28) and cut the ropes, then he made, which fired many swords. Noah swiftly dodges the incoming blades. Emma was having a worried look on her face, so she decides to help him.
"Step back!" Noah said, as he turned to Emma. But, as he tried to dodge the last blade, it cut his dark blue zip-up, blood oozing out of the wound.
"Noah!" Emma cried as she ran to Noah. "Are you okay?"
(End Track)
"I'm fine," Noah said to Emma.
"It doesn't look like it," Emma said.
"I just want to be left alone," Noah said.
(Cue Dire Prediction by VideoHelper; 0:00-0:37, 1:03-1:30)
"Why are you beating yourself up like this?" Emma asked.
"Because that Caeltermare mocked me for being weak," Noah explained, as Noah got up.
"Are you serious?" Noah asked.
"Yeah. I've got to find a way to beat him. Not just him… but that Gazelle Caletermare as well," Noah said.
"Well, for starters… It's not just your fight," Emma pointed out. "We're a team, remember?"
"I know. If I get better… the team gets better," Noah said, turning her back at Emma.
"I respect that. But we can help too. Troy says that we're just teammates and not friends. But…" Emma said.
"I'm sorry," Noah apologized, cutting Emma off. "But this is something that I have to do by myself."
"Can you do it though?" A voice asked, and Noah and Emma turned to see Billy Cranston.
(End Track)
"Mr. Cranston?" Emma questioned in confusion.
"Please… Call me Billy. That's what my fellow teammates called me," Billy said.
"Fellow teammates?" Noah said in confusion, before his eyes widen. "Then, you're…"
"The original Blue Ranger. I'm from Universe Beta. I was sent by Gosei to talk to Noah Carver. One, he notices that you're not believing in yourself… and two, you're being targeted," Billy explained.
"I know I'm being targeted. That's why I'm training this hard. And what's wrong, Gosei couldn't tell me this himself? He couldn't just teleport me to his cave and give me a pep talk?" Noah asked.
"You know exactly why, Noah," Gosei said through Noah's Legacy Morpher. Noah sighs on what he just said.
"I'm sorry. I'm just stressed, that's all," Noah apologized.
"There's nothing wrong with being stressed. You're learning. The only way you can learn new things is to trust yourself and your talents," Gosei said to Noah.
"He's not wrong," Billy added. "I was once the position you were in when I first started. Somehow I was able to pull through my first day as a Ranger. As I became a Ranger and started to help people and protect my world, the more I believe in myself."
"You're here… just for me?" Noah asked.
"Yes," Gosei confirmed.
"I also made another prediction. That being, "The wise wolf ninja of the three-horned beast, passed the crystal to the one he deemed worthy," Tensou added, through the Legacy Morpher.
"I liked the description of myself," Billy said. "Anyways, Gosei told me if you overcame your biggest obstacle, that you're facing right now, you'll be able to combine your Mechazords into the Star Guard Megazord."
"Megazord?" Emma asked.
"It's a giant robot," Billy explained. "That's all I have to say. But before I go… You best need to watch out for the Machine Empire."
"The Machine Empire?" Noah asked.
"They were the second group of villains that Universe Beta had fought. One of the generals of King Mondo, the leader of the Machine Empire, survived. But, he has a radio signal echoing through universes. The wavelength may no longer exist in my original universe… but the radio signal most likely have traveled somewhere."
Billy then takes a deep breaths.
"Well, good luck on the rest of your journey," Billy said, as his Ranger form appeared over him for a moment, before a green portal appeared in the sky, and Billy was absorbed in it.
"What was that?" Noah asked, before coughing.
"Dunno," Emma shrugged, before noticed Noah coughing. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I'm just dehydrated," Noah reassured Emma.
"Looks like sharks need water as well," Emma joked, which made Noah and her smile.
"That's probably the second thing that made me happy. The first was seeing my lost brother, Joe," Noah said.
"You found your brother? Congratulations," Emma smiled.
"But you didn't know," Noah pointed out.
"It's alright. I'm happy for you," Emma smiled, as she walked to her BMX bike and put on her biker helmet. "I'll be back in 20 minutes. The river is just 10 minutes from here."
As Emma peddled to the river on her BMX bike, Noah continued his training.
12 minutes later
Emma filled up her empty water bottle with clear water from the river, before hearing a noise. Emma walks to where the noise was coming from, and she saw Troy, blindfolded, fighting against empty cartons, held by ropes.
"What is he doing?" Emma wondered, as she walked to Troy's training. "Hey!"
Troy caught an empty carton and took of his blindfold.
"You… What are you doing here?" Troy asked.
"One, it's Emma… Two, I heard you training. What exactly are you doing?" Emma asked.
"Focusing on my surroundings. There could be Caeltermare that we can't see. I'm training so I sense it's movement," Troy explained.
"There isn't seem to be that type of Caeltermare at the moment. But I do have good news… Noah's brother, Joe, has been found," Emma smiled.
(Cue Death Factor by VideoHelper; 0:00-0:40, 0:57-1:19)
But Troy had an emotionless look on his face.
"Don't give me the blank stare. You should be happy," Emma said.
"Caeltermare can take the forms of humans they killed right?" Troy asked Emma.
"Are you saying that Noah is being tricked?!" Emma asked. "How can you assume that so quickly?!"
"Think about it. The guy disappeared for years, then suddenly comes back? It doesn't make sense," Troy said.
"You don't trust anyone, that's your problem," Emma pointed out.
"You don't know anything about me. Like I said before, we're teammates… and that's all," Troy said. "Even if you did know anything about me… it has nothing to do with you."
"Nothing do with-?" Emma asked. "You said that we were teammates. Aren't we supposed to work together?"
"Just go already. I don't have time to talk about things that are pointless," Troy said, as he put on his blindfold and continued training, with Emma sighing, walking away.
(End Track)
*Trang Woods, 8:57 P.M.*
Noah had been practicing for five hours, but he did stop so he and Emma can eat dinner. Noah was training endlessly with his Mega Saber and spare sword, even when Emma had already fallen asleep. Noah imagined himself deflecting the blades from Propheta Cruentus. As the final blade came, Noah managed to thrust the blade in half, splitting into two and hitting two pieces of bamboo.
"Yes," Noah breathed.
*Trang Woods, 9:00 A.M.* (February 9, 2013)
It was morning as the sun had risen up. Emma had opened up her eyes and noticed that Noah was gone.
"Noah?" Emma wondered.
(Cue Medical Mystery by VideoHelper; 0:00-0:21, 0:50-1:15)
Noah was walking to his pending duel with Kennedy, before being stopped by Emma. Noah precedes to keep moving, but is stopped, once again, when Emma tugs at his blue zip-up, before taking out her Mega Saber.
"I want you to have this. We're probably just teammates after all. I'm not sure if I should give this to you," Emma said. "But I want to say that you don't have to be like…"
"…anybody else to be better than yourself. That's what you told me about what your mom said to you," Noah finished Emma's sentence. "Thanks. I needed you to understand why I have to do this. And from what you said… we're acquaintances at the moment."
Noah drops his spare sword to the ground and takes Emma's spare Mega Saber.
"Good luck," Emma said, stopping Noah for one last time, before moving forward to his duel.
*Magisiva Beach, 9:15 A.M.*
(End Track)
Noah had arrived at Magisiva Beach, only to see that Kennedy wasn't there. Instead, he saw Joe.
(Cue Once No People by VideoHelper; 0:00-0:20, 0:47-1:08)
"Joe?" Noah said, as he smiled, running to his brother.
"You're right in time," Joe said, as Noah dropped both of his swords.
"But…" Noah said, touching Joe by the shoulders. "Are you really Joe?"
"What are you talking about?" Joe asked, but Noah just smiled.
"Nothing. It's nothing at all," Noah said. "Where's that person who wanted to meet with us."
"Don't know," Joe shrugged.
"Blue Ranger…" A voice said, and Noah turned to see Kennedy. "I didn't actually think you would show up."
"This guy…" Noah muttered under his breath.
"I've been looking forward to this. Shall we start the duel?" Kennedy asked transforming into Propheta Cruentus.
"Joe, run!" Noah cried, but Noah turned to Joe in shock. Joe was no longer there. Taking his place was the Gazelle Caeltermare, Taurus Orygem. Orygem jumped and tackled Crunetus to the ground.
"You're impatient! You neglected your own plan!" Orygem exclaimed, as he was giving from behind by the pinned down Crunetus. Crunetus soon overpowered Orygem, for a while, until Orygem summoned his Zelle Drill, which damaged Crunetus in the chest. After dodging an attack from Crunetus' right knife-like sickle, Orygem slashed Crunetus with his Zelle Drill, before turning to Noah and transforming back into Joe Carver.
(Cue Happy Days are Fear Again by VideoHelper; 0:00-1:23)
"Noah…" Joe said, and Noah responded by taking his Mega Saber, and converted it into its Blaster Mode.
"You… You killed Joe… didn't you?" Noah asked, trembling.
"What are you saying? I am Joe," Joe said.
"Why?! Why do you know so much about my older brother?!" Noah asked.
"When a Caeltermare takes a form of a human… we also get their memories," Joe exclaimed, taking out his identification for NASA. Noah then dropped his Mega Blaster.
"How dare you!" Emma cried from the rocks, which was her hiding place. "What honor is there in a fight for messing with someone's heart?!"
"Humans rely on brute strength than brains. That's why Propheta Crunetus recruited me as his partner. I can really weaken his opponent from the inside," Joe explained, before transforming back into Taurus Orygem. "For you final lesson in dueling… Never underestimate your opponent."
"Stop!" Emma cried, as she unfolded her Megaforce Pink Ranger Key. "Go, Go, Megaforce!"
Emma then inserted her Megaforce Pink Ranger Key into the keyhole of the Legacy Morpher, then turning it, transforming her into Megaforce Pink. As she ran to stop Orygem, a group of Nympha Pedes had appeared. Emma tried to break free from the Pedes, but there were too many.
"Noah!" Emma cried.
"Die!" Orygem cried, ready to strike Noah down with his Zelle Drill. But, Orygem was blasted from behind. Orygem turned to see Troy, Gia, and Jake, morphed, before the culprits.
"This ends now!" Troy exclaimed, as he jumped at and dived at Orygem, grabbing him, then side kicking him. "Noah, morph! You're going to fight."
(End Track)
"I can't. Those are my older brother's memories," Noah said.
"Don't you get it. That's what made you vulnerable. Caeltermare twisted your heart. Sitting there and mopping won't solve anything! That's why you need to fight… to give them karma!" Troy lectured Noah. "Fight, Noah! Fight!"
As Troy charged to fight Orygem, with Gia and Jake helping with the Pedes, Noah took out his Legacy Morpher and Megaforce Blue Ranger Key. He looks at it, then looks at Propheta Crunetus, who walked off his injuries. Noah then unfolded his Ranger Key and flipped open the Legacy Morpher.
"Go, Go, Megaforce!"
Noah inserted the Ranger Key into the keyhole of the Legacy Morpher, transforming himself into Megaforce Blue, before charging at the Mantis Caeltermare.
The four Rangers were fighting off the Pedes, with Troy fighting Taurus Orygem.
"Noah will be okay, right?!" Emma asked.
"Of course!" Jake responded, as he shot a couple of Pedes with his Mega Blaster. "Noah's in the zone now. He'll crush that guy!"
"Exactly!" Gia agreed, as she slashed a Pede with her Mega Saber. Troy as forced back by an attack from Orygem's Zelle Drill.
"Looks like we need to go legendary," Troy said to the team, who regrouped with them, before taking out the Jungle Fury Ranger Keys (minus Blue), unfolding them, and flipping open the Legacy Morpher.
"Geez. Crunetus!" Orygem called out, and Crunetus responded by slashing at the four rangers, with his glowing green knife-like sickles.
"Legendary Ranger Mode: Jungle Fury! Jungle Beast, Spirts Unleashed!"
The Rangers, transformed into the Jungle Fury Rangers, leaped from the explosion, as Troy managed to land a punch at Orygem's chest. Troy then used kenpo to fight against Orygem.
"Say goodbye!" Jake said, as he kneed Orygem, twice, before elbowing him in the face. Gia was next as she hit Orygem with her Jungle Bo. She jabbed Orygem in the stomach and lifted him up in the air.
"You… Take this!" Emma cried, as she jumped in the air and did the Jungle Fury Rhino Ranger's Super Blade Attack. Emma lands on her feet after executing the attack.
"Let's unlock some blasting power and finish this guy already!" Troy said, taking out the S.P.D. Red Ranger Key.
"Legendary Ranger Mode: S.P.D.! S.P.D. Emergency!"
Gia, Jake, and Emma combined their Deltamax Striker weapons, converting them into Laser Mode, while Troy took out his Delta Blasters and combined them into the Delta Blaster Combo Mode. They targeted their weapons at Orygem, before firing at him. But Orygem had survived the impact of the blasts.
Meanwhile, Noah was busy blocking Cruentus' attack, the Blades of Infinity.
"I figured out your trick, Kennedy!" Noah exclaimed.
"Oh, really?" Cruentus scoffed, as he went to impale Noah, but Noah used his Mega Saber to cut through Crunetus' right knife-like sickle, eventually hitting Crunetus in the face, having him fall on the ground. "Impressive. But I doubt that you mastered the Bloody Dance."

"The what?!" Noah asked, as Crunetus started to spin like a tornado, eventually catching Noah off guard, injuring him in the chest.
"I win… you lose," Cruentus declared.
"You're wrong," Noah said.
"Leave him alone!" Emma cried.
"You're so stubborn," Crunetus groaned as his knife-like sickles started to glow green, and slashed at Noah, which caused an explosion in front of him.
(End Track)
However, Noah didn't receive any impact, despite the explosion. It was like everything around him had froze in place. In reality, that was what happened at that point.
"What? Why is everything frozen?" Noah asked himself, as he saw a figure in white clothes. The figure had white pants, a white undershirt, white shoes, and a white un-buttoned shirt. The face from the figure was that of a young boy, around the age of 18. "Who are you?"
"Be careful. Your about change your fate," The young boy said, walking towards Noah.
"Fate? Hey, what is this? How are you doing this?!" Noah asked.
"If you continue down this path… there will be no turning back. You'll have to fight… until the world is cleared from its darkness," The young boy said.
"I… I'm not going to quit because of my brother being killed. I'm staying so I can get strong… and protect everyone!" Noah said. The young boy looks down in disappointment, as he presses the button, on top of Noah's belt buckle, revealing the Blue Mystic Ranger Key. "Wh-what are you doing?"
"With my blessing… You'll have full control of the Ultimate Power of Mystic Force," The young boy said, as he took the Blue Mystic Ranger Key out from the belt buckle, unfolded it, and inserted into the keyhole of the Mega Saber.
"Hey. It's not glowing. What does…" Noah tried to say to the young boy. But the young boy had already vanished, as everything around him resumed. As the explosion died down, Crunetus was flabbergasted that Noah survived that.
"How?!" Crunetus asked, as Noah looked at his Mega Saber.
"One sword may not be enough," Noah said to himself. That sentence was overheard by Emma, who envisioned of Noah holding five swords at once.
"One sword… Five swords!" Emma exclaimed, as she grabbed Troy's Mega Saber.
"What are you doing?" Troy asked, as Emma grabbed Gia and Jake's Mega Saber.
"Trust me. I know what I'm doing," Emma said as she ran to Noah. "Noah!"
Emma quickly threw the four Mega Sabers at Noah. But as Noah turns, the Sabers hit Noah on the head.
"Ow!" Noah exclaimed, holding his head.
"Sorry," Emma apologized.
"It's all good, it's all good," Noah reassured Emma, as he grabbed the four Mega Sabers. Three swords were on his right hand, while two were on his left.
"You… Haven't you learned your lesson?" Cruentus asked. "Bloody Dance!"
(Insert Kakusei by Ricky; 0:15-0:28, 1:09-1:46, 4:22-4:35)
As Crunetus started spinning, Noah prepared to attack.
"Yeah. Never underestimate your opponent," Noah responded, as he started to spin at Cruentus, eventually ending the spin with a quintuple slash, breaking Cruentus' knife-like sickles.
"What? His can't be happening! No one is able to wield five swords at once!" Crunetus said, in denial.
"Believe it! It's over," Noah said, as his belt buckle glowed blue. Noah turns to see the young boy in white clothes nodded at him, with an emotionless expression. Noah then taps the top button of belt buckle, revealing four Ranger Keys. Those being Samurai Blue, the Blue Wind Ranger, Galaxy Blue, and the Blue Aquitar Ranger. The four keys automatically unfolded and entered the keyhole of the Mega Sabers.
"Do your worst," Cruentus said.
"This is the part where you say goodbye! Quintuple Splash!" Noah cried as he slashed at Crunetus, revealing the water-based Rangers that came before Noah. First was Samurai Blue, then Blue Mystic Ranger, then Blue Wind Ranger, then Galaxy Blue, and then Blue Aquitar Ranger, before Noah delivered the finishing slash. As Noah finished his attack, a halo appeared on top of Cruentus head, before Propheta Cruentus exploded.
(End Insert Song)
Taurus Orygem got up from his wounds as was shocked that one of the best warriors with blades, Propheta Cruentus, was defeated.
"Impossible! I can understand why Filum and Nocturnus were killed, but Crunetus was the best with blades! Damn you!" Orygem cried, as he took out the Enlargement Grenade, and pulled the pin. "Enlargement Grenade!"
As Orygem threw the bomb on the ground, creating an explosion, that soon causes him to grow into a giant.
"These guys never quit," Troy said, as he flipped open his Legacy Morpher, dialed 2, 9, and then pressed the access button. "Summon Dragon Mechazord!"
The Dragon Mechazord appeared in the sky, and Troy quickly jumps into the Zord, ending up in the cockpit.
"Dragon Mechazord, Warrior Mode!" Troy cried, as the Dragon Mechazord's tail soon came appear, converting it into legs. The wings were converted to the back, so that arms would appear from the sides. The head of the Dragon Mechazord opened its mouth, revealing a silver face. The chest looked like a knights armor, with the exception of it, obviously, being red. This was the Dragon Mechazord's Warrior Mode.
"I don't care how much power you have… Let's dance!" Orygem cried, as the Gazelle Caeltermare began to jump all over the place, causing Troy to lose the fight.
"I think he's forgetting about us," Jake said, as he and Gia took out their Legacy Morphers, dialed 2, 9, and then pressed the access button.
"Summon Mechazords!"
Out from the rocks were the Tiger and Snake Mechazords. Gia and Jake entered the cockpits of their respective Zords. Orygem jumped as the Snake Mechazord spitted out his venom. Orygem landed on the Snake and Tiger Mechazords, while grabbing the Dragon Sword of the Dragon Mechazord's Warrior Mode, with his Zelle Drill.
"You won't let me die, right? You sacrificed everything for me, I'm the only thing you're proud of," Orygem said to Noah, who clenched his fist in response. Then, Noah and Emma's Legacy Morphers glowed their respective colors. Both of them flipped them open, as well as answering a call from Gosei.
"Noah, Emma, your overcome of self-doubt and as well and determination to help your friends, respectively, have given you access for you Mechazords! Summon them and you can form the Star Guard Megazord!" Gosei instructed.
"Got it," Noah nodded, pressing the dialing 2 and 9, then pressing the access button, with Emma doing the same.
"Summond Mechazords!"
Out from the sea of the beach came a mechanized blue shark, with the body of a submarine, and from the skies appeared a mechanized phoenix, with a pink and white color scheme, who had the body of a F-15 fighter jet. These were the Shark and Phoenix Mechazords, respectively.
"Are you ready?" Noah asked.
"Always," Emma nodded, as the two entered their cockpits. As Orygem had the Rangers tangled up, Orygem chest had sparks flying from his chest, stumbling back. The Rangers, in their cockpits, then turned to see Noah and Emma in their Zords.
"Look! It's Noah and Emma!" Jake exclaimed.
"This is incredible. Such advanced technology," Noah said, admiring the technology of the Mechazord. His admiring was cut short when his pad revealed Orygem, with a target on him. "And we have target lock. Fin Torpedos!"
Noah pressed the top red buttons of his steering wheel, revealing torpedos from the side fins.
"And fire!" Noah exclaimed, as he fired the torpedos at Orygem's chest. The damage was really bad on Orygem. It was doubled when Emma blasted at Orygem's arms, forcing Orygem to drop his Zelle Drill.
"She shoots… and she scores! One point to pink!" Emma exclaimed.
"You guys, be serious," Troy said, as his belt buckled glowed. Troy then pressed the top button of his belt buckle, revealing the Red Mystic Ranger Key. "What is this?"
"The Star Guard Megazord is powered by the Ultimate Power of Mystic Force. Use it," Gosei instructed.
"You heard him. Form the Star Guard Megazord," Troy instructed, taking out the Red Mystic Ranger Key, unfolding it, and inserting in into the keyhole of the cockpit, with the Rangers doing the same with their Mystic Ranger Keys of their respective color.
"Zords combine!"
"Jake, Gia, go!" Troy cried.
"Okay!" Gia exclaimed, as the mechanized tail of the Snake Mechazord inserted into the Tiger Mechazord.
"And… up!" Jake exclaimed, and the connected Zords moved up from the ground, creating legs.
"I'm linked! Noah, Emma!" Troy cried.
"On my way!" Emma exclaimed.
"Roger that," Noah said, as the Shark and Phoenix Mechazords became arms. The Dragon Mechazord's Warrior Mode, and combined with the four Zords, as if he was putting on a suit of armor. After the Shark and Phoenix Mechazords became the right and left arms, respectively, the Star Guard Megazord was complete.
"Star Guard Megazord, ready!"
All the Rangers appeared in the Megazord cockpit together.
"Woah, this thing is sick," Jake commented.
"It looks fine to me," Noah said, jokingly what Jake said literally.
"I like the name, by the way," Emma said.
"You guys… Let's go," Gia said, helping the three Rangers to remain on task.
"Gia's right. We need to finish this," Troy agreed, and the Star Guard Megazord took its first steps, taking out the Dragon Sword in the process. They managed to get a lot of good hits on Orygem's chest, eventually having the Gazelle Caeltermare almost beaten. "He's down. Now let's finish him off!"
The Rangers turned their Mystic Ranger Keys in the keyhole.
"Ancient Power, Mystic Spell Seal!"
Then, the symbol of Mystic Force appeared around Orygem's body, paralyzing his movement.
"What's going on" Orygem asked. He got his answer with one slash to the chest, defeating him. As a halo appears in front of Orygem's head, he reaches his hand out.
"Noah," Orygem said, before Taurus Orygem exploded. Noah clenches his fist due to Taurus Orygem's last words.
As soon as the Rangers were on the ground, demorphed, Noah stood in the beach, holding the Blue Mystic Ranger Key.
"Joe," Noah said, with tear flowing from his eyes. "Joe!"
Noah then crumbles on the sandy ground and cries in agony and emotional pain. The four Rangers watched him as he was an emotional breakdown. Emma steps forward towards Noah, crouches down, and embraces him.
"It's alright. I'm here. Cry as long as you want. I'll be here," Emma cooed Noah. Troy then starts to turn and walk away.
"Hey. Where are you going? Your teammate is suffering. You're just going to leave him here?!" Gia asked.
"He'll be alright. Someone's already helping him," Troy responded, walking away.
*Tunnel, 10:31 A.M.*
(Cue Lying in Wait by VideoHelper; 0:00-0:13, 1:01-1:23)
Troy walks through the tunnels where cars were driving, though he was walking at the side. On the other side, touching the metal bars, revealing the young boy in white, watching Troy.
Noah Carver, Megaforce Blue, had overcame a challenge, resulting in the Mega Rangers in unlocking the Star Guard Megazord. But, a mysterious boy in white had helped Noah in defeated Propheta Cruentus. Just who is this mysterious boy?

That was Episode 4! If you read my thoughts on Megaforce, from the first episode, I actually enjoy Noah's journey as a character. I can understand why some people don't like him, because of his shifting personalities, but I don't mind that. Noah's focus episodes, Going Viral and Blue Saber Saga, shows him that he needs to be strong so he can be strong. To me, it shows Noah as a character, trying to be strong so he can't be weak.
I added Kakusei, the first insert song from Kamen Rider Blade, as an insert song because I really like insert songs. I'm currently watching Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive, and some of its insert songs have been stuck in my head.
I added two more designers, Tamotsu Shinohara (who designed Taurus Orygem) and Koji Iida (who designed Propheta Cruentus). Both of the two collaborated with Yasushi Nirasawa for their designs of the Deer and Zebra Undeads, respectively. Nirasawa and Shinohara would later reunited for Gokaiger. Shinohara is an iconic monster designer, designing shows like Turboranger, Dairanger, Kakuranger, Ryuki, Faiz, Magiranger, Boukenger, Gekiranger, Kiva, Shinkenger, Toqger, and Kamen Rider Build. While Iida designed some Gurongi, from Kuuga, and the Makamou, from the last 19 episodes of Hibiki. Iida also designed the rider suits for Blade and Hibiki, before being fired for leaking photos for Decade's movie, All Riders vs. Dai-Shocker.
I also redesigned the Gosei Great Megazord, now called the Star Guard Megazord. I love Dairenoh/Thunder Megazord concept of putting on the zords on the body, like a suit of armor, to make the Megazord. Because the Dragon Mechazord was kind of like the Mystic Dragon, from Mystic Force, I made the Star Guard Megazord the Ultimate Power of Mystic Force. The finisher was a mix between the Legendary Mystic Megazord's Ancient Power Mystic Spell Seal and Gosei Great Megazord's Mega Strike.
Reviews:
RedPink Lover: I think I've read parts of it. I remembered that the Rangers used cards to Morph into past rangers. The idea didn't click with me. Though it looks like its pirate-themed, the season is not pirate-based. I'll explain this a couple of episodes from now.
DragonEmperor999: I actually have a Shark and Dolphin Caeltermare planned for later. But, they won't be siblings, but be in the same class. I'm really glad that you're enjoying the story!
Thank you for reading, everyone. If you want, you can leave a review to share your thoughts. I will see all of you guys, girls, and all in between, next time. Bye.
