I Hope You Enjoy The Next Chapter Of Alebrije Sentai Lucharanger! I Own Nothing!
High Above The Earth, in space, a ship was flying near the blue planet. "This must be where I saw that bright light!" A child's voice, belonging to a young alien who looked like a twelve-year-old human boy with his ears, hind feet, and tail being like that of a Kangaroo and was wearing some sort of crimson-colored spacesuit, said inside of the ship he was piloting. "And my scanners show that they are indeed on this planet." He said. On the scanners, the image of King Draco's symbol, along with the images of the Generals' symbols, were blinking. "Wait a minute!" A voice called as a Crimson colored Alebrije flew in. Specifically, he was a male Alebrije that resembled a crimson-colored Red Kangaroo with the wings and eyes of a Meganeura (an extinct insect resembling modern-day dragonflies, though it belongs to an extinct group of insects known as Griffinflies), and the tail fan, antennae, and front claws of an American Lobster in addition to its kangaroo front limbs, as well as eight American Lobster legs attached to his sides.
"You really think so, Kanganeurobster?" The alien boy asked. "Definitely." The Alebrije answered. "I don't even want to imagine what those scum the Animarius Empire are doing on that planet!" The boy said in disgust, glaring at King Draco's emblem.
Down on Earth...
The Kamen Riders, Lucharangers, and a bunch of their friends were on a green field outside of Great Lakes City, looking up at the sky, waiting for a Meteor Shower, and everyone who was a couple was together. Though, poor Aden was still single. Meanwhile, Lisa and David were setting up a telescope and computer. "I must admit David, this is quite the impressive set up you have." Lisa said. "Thank you, I built it all myself. I even developed a software on my laptop that will allow us to measure the trajectory, size, and terminal velocity of the space debris we will be witnessing tonight!" David said excitedly. That made Lisa squeal a little bit in excitement. "Leave it to those two to get excited about stuff like that." Lori said as she snuggled into Bobby's arms. "Man, I wish my girlfriend were here!" Kabutocerosteus said. "Same with my boyfriend!" Vularena said. "You called?" A voice asked as they turned to see two new Alebrije that Kabutocerosteus and Vularena immediately recognized. The first one was a female Cerulean Alebrije that has the body and legs of a Tardigrade (specifically the species Milnesium tardigradum), the head and wings of a Featherwing Beetle (specifically the species Paratuposa placentis), and the antennae and tail of a Copepod (specifically the species Calanus hyperboreus) as well as a single Copepod compound eye in the center of her head in addition to her Featherwing Beetle eyes. As for the second one, he was a male Chartreuse Alebrije that has the body, legs, ears, and horns of a Sitatunga a.k.a. Marshbuck, the wings and feathered crest of a Hamerkop, and the head, scaly back, and tail of a West African Crocodile.
"Crocotungakop!" Vularena said in delight, rushing over to the Chartreuse Alebrijie. "Paralanusium!" Kabutocerosteus said as he flew over to the Cerulean Alebrije. "Aw, that's so cute!" Lori and Aya said. "Who are you two?" Denkyem asked in confusion. "I'm Crocotungakop, I'm the Alebrije of Swamp, from the land I'm a Sitatunga, the water, a West African Crocodile, and from the sky, a Hamerkop." Crocotungakop said. "And most importantly, my boyfriend!" Vularena said in delight. "Aw!" Aya said. "As for me, I'm Paralanusium, the Alebrije of Quantum, as in Quantum Mechanics! My land animal is a Tardigrade, my water animal is a Copepod, and my sky animal is a Featherwing Beetle!" Paralanusium said. "And, very importantly, my girlfriend!" Kabutocerosteus said. "Well it's nice to meet you both." Lori said. "Isn't that sweet?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Speaking of sweet." Sid said, pointing to Adelaide who was snuggling with Subaru. "I still can't believe Adelaide actually has her first boyfriend!" Sid said in delight.
"Seriously, you should seen my parents faces when Adelaide introduced Subaru to them!" She added. "Especially the look on our dad's face when she introduced him as her boyfriend!" Sid said with a chuckle. "Though, they were incredibly surprised about him being part-Tanuki!" She added. "You think that's crazy? You should have seen the amount of tears Tia Frida let loose when Carl introduced Yui to our family as his girlfriend." Ronnie Anne told her girlfriend with a chuckle. Then, we cut to a flashback to that particular scene. In it, Frida was crying so hard, her eyes were like high pressure Fire Hoses! "Oh, I can't believe one of my sons has finally gotten a girlfriend!" Frida said while still crying, much to Carl's embarrassment. "Does she normally cry this hard?" Yui asked Carl. "She tends to flood the apartment when watching 'Camila'." Carl said. "What's 'Camila'?" Yui asked in confusion. "It's a relationship talk show, where the host, appropriately named Camilla, talks to a couple in a troubled relationship and asks her audience if the couple should make up or break up!" Carl explained. "And to say my mom goes crazy with the tears when watching it would be an understatement." He said with a shudder as the flashback ended. "I can't even imagine how she'll be when Carlota, CJ, Carl, or Carlitos ever get married!" Ronnie Anne said with a shudder.
"How does she and the rest of your family know about Yui being part-Kitsune?" Sid asked. "They do, and let's just say that Tio Carlos got a little spooked after Yui popped out her fox ears and tail in front of everyone!" Ronnie Anne said. "Can you blame him?" Sid asked. "Hey, it's not my fault that I'm really 'Foxy'!" Yui joked as she was seen wrapping her arms around Carl from his left side, with her chest touching his left arm, much to Carl's embarrassment. "Hey, guys, look it's starting!" Lincoln said as everyone looked up to see the meteor shower while Lisa and David fired up their set up. "Oh Boy, this is going to be great!" Lisa said in excitement. As this was going on, the boy and Kanganeurobster were flying into the Earth's atmosphere. "I'm picking up a large group of this planet's inhabitants in that field down there!" The boy said. "And I'm sensing several Alebrije down there too!" Kanganeurobster said just as one of the meteors hit the ship.
That caused the ship to start spinning out of control. "Uh oh." The boy and Alebrije said as they tried to correct the ship's path, only to be repeatedly pelted by the meteors, alarms blaring and soon, the ship stalled and started heading towards the Earth. "Huh? Hey Lisa, is it just me or is one meteor flying oddly?" Alraunellie asked Lisa. "Oddly?" Lisa asked in confusion. Before looking through the telescope to see the ship. "That's no meteor, that's a spaceship!" Lisa said as David scanned it with his software. "According to my calculations, it's trajectory will lead it...there!" He said, pointing right in front of them. "And according to my calculations, based on the size and Terminal Velocity, once it does land, it will cause insanely massive damage!" Lisa said.
Everyone gasped at that. "We've got to get up there!" Sakura said. As this was going on, the boy was trying to fix the ship's flight when all of a sudden, the Vectors and Leaquilfin mech flew up to where it was. "Huh?" The boy and Kanganeurobster exclaimed in confusion. "Attention pilot, do not fear, we are here to help you land safely!" Lincoln called. That made the boy and Kanganeurobster rather relieved. "Okay, first things first, Laird and Quil, use your telekinesis to slow the craft down, once it's slow enough, we'll use Aquarion Anansi to safely place it on the ground." Lincoln instructed. "You got it!" Laird and Leaquilfin replied at once. Before using the telekinesis to straighten out the ship while the Riders formed Aquarion Anansi as Laird and Leaquilfin slowed the descent down. Then, Aquarion Anansi grabbed the ship with its hands. Soon, everyone was on the ground as the child and Alebrije stepped out of the ship. "Thank you for that." The boy said as the riders stepped out of the Vectors and Laird returned to his human form with Leaquilfin on his shoulder.
"You're welcome!" Lincoln replied. "So, just out of curiosity, who or what are you and what brings you here?" He asked. "First things first, could you please tell me what gases make up your planet's atmosphere?" The child asked. "Mostly Oxygen and Nitrogen." Lisa said. "Along with Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Neon, Helium, Methane, Krypton, Hydrogen, Nitrous Oxide, Carbon Monoxide, Xenon, Ozone, Nitrogen Dioxide, Iodine, and trace amounts of Ammonia." David said. "Oh! So, it's similar to my home planet's atmosphere!" The alien boy said. "That's a relief." The boy said, removing his helmet. That's when his face is revealed to be almost like that of a red-haired tan-skinned human boy, albeit with kangaroo-like ears instead of human ears and having a rhinarium (wet nose) instead of a human nose. "My name is Makros." Makros introduced. "I come from the planet Straya, home of my people, the Gurrugans!" He added.
"And I'm Kanganeurobster, I'm an Alebrije with power over the element of space! From the land, I'm a Red Kangaroo, the sea, an American Lobster, and from the sky, a Meganeura." Kanganeurobster introduced as everyone looked at Lisa and David in confusion about what a Meganeura is. "It's an extinct species of giant insect that resembles the modern-day Dragonfly, but is actually not related to it! Rather, the Meganeura and its relatives are placed in a different order known as Meganisoptera, also known as Griffinflies." Lisa explained. "Well it's very nice to meet you, Makros-kun, and...Kangan-san!" Sakura said. "Kangan-san?" Kanganeurobster asked in confusion. "The Humans find some of our full names difficult to remember and/or pronounce, so they give us nicknames." Jaxondor explained as she and the rest of the Alebrije greet their friend.
"Jaxondor! Everyone! It's glad to see you all again!" Kanganeurobster said. "Likewise, but why are you with Makros?" Jaxondor asked. "That strange shockwave opened up a portal that dropped me onto his ship." Kanagneurobster said. "Fortunately, being the Alebrije of Space, I was able to breath in the vacuum of outer space before Makros let into his ship!" He added. And I'm here because your world is in great danger!" Makros warned. "Yeah, what else is new?" Lori asked. "Long ago, my planet was conquered by a race of evil, for millennia, they have ruled over us, but I was tired of it, after having a dream of their leaders settling down in a base on another planet, I set off, and have tracked them down to...what do you call this planet?" Makros asked. "Well it depends on the language, for example in my home country Japan, it's called Chikyuu, but in English, which you seem to be speaking, it's Earth." Sakura said.
"Earth?" Makros asked in confusion. Before shaking off his confusion. "Anyway, listen to me, I tracked down the enemy to this planet, and-oh no, they're here!" He said in fright upon noticing Andros and Phixia get behind Duafe and Mpatapo. "You two, look out!" Makros told Duafe and Mpatapo before jumping towards Andros and Phixia and sucker punching the two away before following them. "Ow! What the heck is your problem?!" Andros asked in annoyance. "Yeah! Why are you attacking us?!" Phixia asked in equal annoyance. "Fascinating!" Lisa said as she and David rushed over to Makros carrying notepads. "Just like Earth Kangaroos, you appear to have incredible leg muscles, tell me, how far can you jump, what is the main staple of your species' diet, how are you able to speak English?" David asked frantically. "Excuse me?" Makros asked in confusion. "Hey! What's the big idea sucker punching my boyfriend like that?!" Duafe asked angrily.
"And my girlfriend?!" Mpatapo asked angrily. "Seriously? You think because your faces resemble them you can infiltrate them? Listen, these two are not what you think they are! Those medallions are the symbol of the great evil I was just talking about!" Makros said, trying to defend his actions. "Wait, are you referring to King Draco and the Animarius Empire?" Lincoln asked. "Dude, we haven't associated ourselves with those guys since we defected!" Andros said angrily. "What? Defected? Since when?" Makros asked in confusion. "Since we fell in love with these two humans over here!" Phixia said while pointing at Mpatapo and Duafe. Unbeknownst to anyone, Ophanimaton and Orgullo's Messenger Bat were watching and listening before Ophanimaton opened a portal back to the Animarius Castle while the bat flew back to the Kendall Apartment.
"But, how can that be?! The Animarius Empire is pure evil! They conquered my home planet and enslaved my people!" Makros said in confusion. "Not all of us are like that, young Gurrugan." Toadus said as he was nearby, sipping some tea. "And who are you?" Makros asked defensively. "I am Toadus, years ago, I was the leader of the Amphibian Army of the Animarius Empire, admittedly, my tenure included the invasion of your planet, and I apologize for my involvement, but after I was saved by a human when we first came to Earth, my young ward Gorf and I defected from the Empire." Toadus explained. That took Macros by surprise.
Meanwhile...
"What? A Gurrugan on Earth?" King Draco asked in shock. "That's what Ophanimaton says." Futaba said. "A race of Kangaroo like humanoids from the planet Straya, we conquered it a few years before our initial arrival to Earth." King Draco explained to the Shocker agent. "But, didn't you put a member of the Royal Guard and a few other Animarius soldiers in charge of that planet before we left?" Megalonis asked in confusion. "Indeed. Aquilis! Patch us through to Bunyippus on Straya!" King Draco ordered Aquilis. "Yes, your Majesty!" Aquilis said.
Meanwhile, on Planet Straya (described as being an Earth-like planet that has only one huge kangaroo-shaped continent/island surrounded by a much larger ocean and several smaller islands)...
Inside of what appears to be a high-tech military base, a male humanoid animal-like figure, who was mammalian in appearance and had dark platypus-like fur, a long emu-like neck with a long horse-like mane, a row of conical spikes across his back, a scaly crocodile tail ending in a long tuft of hair like a horse's tail, long legs and arms ending in seal flipper-like feet and webbed hands respectively with sharp claws, and an almost dog-like head with a pair of short conical horns, a serrated duck-like beak, crocodile-like teeth, and walrus-like tusks as well as having the symbol of the Mythical Army on his left shoulder, was standing in front of several other Animarius soldiers, specifically a male humanoid Red Kangaroo with spiked boxing gloves and the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Koala with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Diprotodon (giant extinct Wombat species) with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Tasmanian Devil with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Thylacine (Tasmanian Tiger) with the image of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Long-Nosed Bandicoot with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Burrowing Cockroach with the symbol of the Insect Army on his left shoulder, a large male humanoid Goliath Stick Insect with the symbol of the Insect Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Platypus wearing a brown fedora with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Emu with the image of the Bird Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Laughing Kookaburra with wings on his back and the symbol of the Bird Army on his left shoulder, a female humanoid Giant Prickly Stick Insect (Extatosoma tiaratum) with the image of the Insect Army on her left shoulder, a male humanoid Sulphur-crested Cockatoo with wings on his back and the symbol of the Bird Army on his back, a male humanoid Frilled Lizard with the symbol of the Reptile Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Thorny Devil with the symbol of the Reptile Army on his left shoulder, a female humanoid Saltwater Crocodile with the symbol of the Reptile Army on her left shoulder, a male human Megalania (an extinct relative of the Komodo Dragon) with the symbol of the Reptile Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Grey Butcherbird with wings on his back and the symbol of the Bird Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Southern Corroboree Frog with the symbol of the Amphibian Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Largetooth Sawfish with the symbol of the Fish Army on his left shoulder, a male humanoid Tasselled Wobbegong with the symbol of the Fish Army on his left shoulder, a female humanoid Leafy Seadragon with the symbol of the Fish Army on her left shoulder, a male humanoid Kunbarrasaurus with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder, a female humanoid Minmi with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on her left shoulder, a female humanoid Savannasaurus with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on her left shoulder, and a male humanoid Australovenator with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army.
When all of a sudden, a Lizardon rushed over to the one from King Draco's army and whispered something in his ear. "What? King Draco is calling?!" He asked in shock. When all of a sudden, a Lizardon rushed over to the one from King Draco's army and whispered something in his ear. "What? King Draco is calling?!" He asked in shock. Soon, they were all facing a monitor with a flashing screen, to which they answered, seeing King Draco. "Your majesty, what a wonderful surprise!" The one from his army said, as he and his cohorts bowed down to the Dragon Animarius. "Glad to see you too, Bunyippus!" King Drako said. "To what do we owe this honor, your majesty?" The Kangaroo Animarius asked. "Apparently, it just came to my attention that a young Gurrugan had somehow to managed escape from Straya and entered the planet that I'm currently trying to conquer!" King Drako said, much to the shock of Bunyippus and his cohorts. "What?! A Gurrugan has escaped?!" The Tasmanian Devil Animarius asked before letting out an unearthly shriek and ala Taz from Looney Tunes spun around in a mini Tornado, wreaking havoc on the base they were in. "Tasmaniac, calm down! You're wrecking the base!" Bunyippus ordered.
Tasmaniac stopped, although he was still quite angry. "So sorry you had to see that, your majesty." Bunyippus said nervously. "It's fine, but what's not fine is that someone from one of the planets I've conquered is here! Send a couple of your soldiers to Earth, and deal with him! And if you can also deal with a little pest problem I've been having, that would be better." King Draco ordered. "Pest problem?" Bunyippus asked in confusion. "A band of heroes that have been thwarting our every move." King Draco said angrily as Aquilis changed the monitor to show images of the Kamen Riders, Lucharangers, and Alchemeister. "Is that the reason why we haven't heard from you in the last 5,000 years?" The Platypus Animarius asked in confusion. "Mainly because this one's ancestors were able to seal us in a stone tablet for 5,000 years." King Draco said, gesturing to Sakura. "The people of this planet are craftier than they look, they were even able to turn some of our kind against us!" Leo said angrily.
"What?! But how?!" The Koala Animarius asked in shock. "We don't like it either, but it's true. Brachios, Toadus, Gorf, Axolota, a new soldier named Mambana, my children with Sphinxia named Andros and Phixia, Bufoam, Gracilus, all of them were turned traitors because of these heroes!" Leo said angrily. "Toadus? If that's true, then who's leading the Amphibian Army now?!" The Southern Corroboree Frog Animarius asked in confusion. "For a while, that Army was defunct, but I decided to revive it under Terribillis' control." King Draco explained, gesturing to the Golden Poison Dart Frog Animarius. "Hey, there, Cousin Corroboris, how's it going?" General Terriblis asked. "Pretty good, although the fact that cousin Gorf and General Toadus betrayed the Empire is intriguing." Corroboris said. "Excuse me, your majesty, did you say Brachios betrayed you? I thought you said he died in a landslide?" The Savannasaurus Animarius said, nervously fidgeting a Linked Hearts necklace and a second necklace with a diamond ring affixed to it around her neck.
"In all honesty, we all thought he did!" King Drako said. "But apparently, he was found and nursed back to health by a human and now works in some shrine in a place the humans call Japan." He explained. "But, even worse, it turns out that the landslide was no accident! My own second-in-command Spino deliberately thrashed his tail at Brachios and sent him sailing into the very mountain that buried him in the first place, not to mention lied to us all about it, and all out of pure jealousy of all things!" General Tyrannis said angrily, making the four Dinosaur Animarius present on Straya groan at that. Before the Savannasaurus Animarius gently smiled knowing her beloved was alive after all. "Uh, does anyone know where General Kabuto is, because I don't see him for some reason!" The Burrowing Cockroach said in confusion. "Unfortunately, his sword was damaged in battle one too many times, so he had to return to Animari Prime to rebuild it, Goliathus here is filling in as acting General until he returns." King Draco explained.
"Hello!" Goliathus said. "Woah, little sheila, what happened to your wings?" The Emu Animarius asked noticing Tytus' metal ones. "*Sigh!* One of those heroes cut them off after I was caught infiltrating their hidden base and tried to escape!" Tytus said bitterly. "But you're still very beautiful, my darling." Ospreyus told Tytus. "Darling? I thought you were dating Shockwing?" The Kookaburra Animarius said. "I will thank you to please never speak of him again!" Tytus said angrily. "Why? What happened?" The Kookaburra Animarius asked in confusion. "If you must know, Shockwing and some of his friends plotted to desert the Empire and take over the planet for themselves, not to mention that they managed to escape when we tried to execute them for such actions!" King Drako said bitterly. "But more importantly, we recently found out that, long before the desertion, Shockwing had drugged my daughter by slipping a roofie into her drink and then he took her innocence while she was under the influence and unconscious!" Aquilis said angrily, making the four Bird Animarius on Straya incredibly outraged and disgusted, though the Sulphur-Crested Cockatoo Animarius was more disgusted than anything, to the point of throwing up on the floor "BLEEEEEEEGH!".
"How do you think I felt!" Tytus cried, Aquilis and Ospreyus hugging her out of comfort. "Why that disgusting lowdown son of a gun! Where is he?! I'm gonna kill him for such perversion!" The Grey Butcherbird Animarius declared angrily. "Fortunately, the Kamen Riders were able to defeat him, unfortunately, he was able to return and now works with another group of evil beings that are trying to conquer this world called the Pecadiablos." King Draco said. Everyone was shocked and confused at that. "Either way, we would appreciate it if you were to come down to Earth and teach this punk a little lesson and help get rid of our little problem." King Draco said.
"In that case, I'll send in Boxaroo, Tasmaniac, Koalash, Platypulp, Emudash, Butcherbeak, Corroboris, Savannara, Australovenatus, Burrowroach, Pristisaw, Wobbegore, Thornoloch, and Megalanox!" Bunyippus said as he pointed at the Red Kangaroo Animarius (Boxaroo), Tasmanian Devil Animarius (Tasmaniac), Koala Animarius (Koalash), Platypus Animarius (Platypulp), Emu Animarius (Emudash), Grey Butcherbird Animarius (Butcherbeak), Southern Corroboree Frog Animarius (Corroboris), Savannasaurus Animarius (Savannara), Australovenator Animarius (Australovenatus), Giant Burrowing Cockroach Animarius (Burrowroach), Largetooth Sawfish Animarius (Pristisaw), Tasselled Wobbegong Animarius (Wobbegore), Thorny Devil Animarius (Thornoloch), and Megalania Animarius (Megalanox), respectively. "Excellent, Cicadeath, Flygor, open up a portal to Straya!" King Draco ordered the two. "At once, your Majesty!" Cicadeath and Flygor said with a salute.
Meanwhile, at the Kendall Apartment...
"What's a Gurrugan?" Lujuria asked in confusion as the Messenger Bat finished relaying what it had recorded to them. "A race of Kangaroo like humanoids native to the planet Straya, the Empire conquered that planet before the initial invasion of Earth." Shockwing explained. "You mean that guy is an alien?" Pereza asked. "Yep, and I can't imagine King Draco taking to someone from one of his previously conquered planets too kindly. He's probably already contacted some of his soldiers we left on Straya to keep the Gurrugans in line and they're on their way here." Shockwing said. "Well then, I think we should give the Gurrugan a little welcoming present of our own!" Orgullo said, laughing maniacally.
Back with the others...
"Oh yeah, I remember Straya, it was the last planet we invaded before Earth's initial invasion, and we actually left some soldiers there to 'keep the locals in line'. Unfortunately, one of the soldiers that King Draco made stay behind was my fiancee Savannara." Brachios said over video chat. "Who?" Sakura asked in confusion. "Savannara is a Savannasaurus Animarius and Brachios's fiancee!" Toadus said. "Savannasaurus?" Aurachnid asked. "A genus of Titanosaurian Sauropod from the late Cretaceous Era first discovered in Queensland, Australia." Lisa explained. "It is notable for its wide hips, which would have been over 1.1 metres, or 3 ft 7 inches, wide at their widest points!" David added. "And trust me when I say that Savannara is as sweet as can be, she's a healer like Axolota." Brachios said. "So, how come you never told us that you have a fiancee, Brachios-san?" Akari asked as she and Zensuke were next to Brachios. "It never came up. I hope she is okay, not a day in the last 5,000 years have gone by that I don't think about her." Brachios admitted, gazing at a Linked Hearts bracelet with their names on it.
"Awwwwww!" The girls went. "So Brachios, who else was left on Straya?" Lincoln asked. "Let's see, from the Dinosaur Army, other than Savannara, there's Australovenatus, the Australovenator Animarius, Kunbarrage, the Kunbarrasaurus Animarius, and his girlfriend Minmia, the Minmi Animarius!" Brachios explained. Everyone looked at Lisa and David in confusion. "The Australovenator, who's name means 'Southern Hunter', was a genus of Megaraptorian theropod from the Late Cretaceous Era, also discovered in Australia." Lisa said. "The Kunbarrasaurus is a small ankylosaur whose genus name is derived from Kunbarra, the word for 'shield' in the Mayi language of the local Wunumara people!" David explained. "And the Minmi was another small Ankylosaurus from the Cretaceous Era, also found in Australia." Lisa explained. "Of course meaning of Minmi's name itself is uncertain! Sometimes, it refers to a large lily in the local aboriginal language, but it might also be derived from min min, a kind of will-o'-the-wisp!" David explained. "The name may be adorable, but trust me, those two together are fierce!" Brachios said. "To say the least." Makros said in agreement to Brachios' statement.
"How fierce are we talking about?" Carl asked. "Enough to fight alongside Ankylo of the Knights of Destruction, the station on Straya being their first mission without him." Brachios said. "I wonder how they would react if they found out about the fact that we killed Ankylo a long while ago?" Clyde asked. "Not too good I can imagine. Anyway, from the Amphibian army is Gorf and Terriblis' cousin, Corroboris, the Southern Corroboree Frog Animarius." Brachios explained. "What kind of Frog is a Southern Corroboree?" Aurachnid asked in confusion. "It's a species of Australian ground frog native to southeastern Australia that bears vivid yellow and black stripes across the head, back and limbs, with the body and head being short and wide, the snout having a slight point, and the fingers and toes lacking in webbing as well the irises being black!" Lisa said. "Of course, it's relative, the Northern Corroboree Frog has narrower and a more greenish-yellow striping!" David added. "However, what both Corroboree Frog species have in common is that they are able to produce their own poison from their skin, unlike the Poison Arrow Frogs who gain their poison through the ants or beetles that they eat!" Lisa explained. "Well what's Corroboris like?" Lincoln asked Toadus.
"*SHUDDER!* Like with Terriblis, he's a master of poison manipulation!" Toadus said with a shudder. "He even has a special acidic mist he's able to produce." Toadus explained. Everyone gulped in fright of that. "With how Terriblis reacted to mine and Gorf's defection, I can't imagine how Corroboris will." Toadus muttered. "Who else?" Lincoln asked. "From the Fish Army, there's Pristisaw, the Largetooth Sawfish Animarius, Wobbegore, the Tasselled Wobbegong Animarius, and Phycodura, the Leafy Seadragon Animarius!" Brachios said. "Tasselled what now?" Clyde asked. "The Tasselled Wobbegong, scientific name: Eucrossorhinus dasypogon, is a species of carpet shark in the family Orectolobidae and the only member of its genus! It inhabits shallow coral reefs off northern Australia, New Guinea, and adjacent islands! Reaching 1.8 m, or 5.9 ft, in length, this species has a broad and flattened body and head! Its most distinctive trait is a fringe of branching dermal flaps around its head, which extends onto its chin! The fringe, along with its complex color pattern of small blotches and reticulations, enable it to camouflage itself against the reef environment!" Lisa explained. "During the day, the solitary Tasselled Wobbegong can generally be found lying inside caves or under ledges with its tail curled! Individual sharks tend to remain within a local area and have favored resting spots! While resting, it opportunistically ambushes nearby fishes and invertebrates, and also lures in prey by waving its tail to mimic the appearance of a small fish! At night, it emerges and actively forages for food! This species is aplacental viviparous, meaning that they possess embryos that develop inside eggs that remain in the females's body until they are ready to hatch, though little is known of its life history! Of course, the Tasselled Wobbegong has been reported to bite and kill humans unprovoked, though the attacks may result from people accidentally disturbing the shark or being misperceived as prey!" David explained.
"From the Reptile Army." Brachios started explaining. "There's Frillion, the Frilled Lizard Animarius, Thornoloch, the Thorny Devil a.k.a Thorny Lizard Animarius, Saltina, the Saltwater Crocodile Animarius, and Megalanox, the Megalania Animarius!" He explained. "Mega-whatia?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "An extinct species of lizard, the largest Lizard to ever walk the Earth, more than twice the size and 20 times the weight of the current record holder, the Komodo Dragon." Lisa explained. "Heck, it's actually related to the Komodo Dragon, practically resembles oversized version of one! Plus, it was apex predator of its time in Australia, hunting down large mammals, such as the Diprotodon, which was a species of giant-sized Wombat, and other animals! Also, just like the Komodo Dragon, it had a venomous bite, which allowed it to take down large prey with hardly any effort!" David added. "The arrival of Australia's Aboriginal people is believed to be a major factor of the species' extinction, primarily after they started hunting it's main prey, the Diprotodon and Procoptodon." Lisa added. "An extinct genus of giant short-faced Kangaroos." Lisa explained. "Of course, unlike modern Kangaroos, the Procoptodon was too large and heavy for jumping, so it instead walks on its hind legs like a human would!" David explained.
"Meanwhile, in the Bird Army." Brachios started explaining. "There's Emudash, the Emu Animarius, Kookaburst, the Laughing Kookaburra Animarius, Talkatoo, the Sulphur-Crested Cockatoo Animarius, and Butcherbeak, the Grey Butcherbird Animarius!" He explained. "Butcherbird?" Aurachnid asked in fear. "The Grey Butcherbird, scientific name: Cracticus torquatus, is a widely distributed species endemic to Australia! It occurs in a range of different habitats including arid, semi-arid, and temperate zones, and is also found across southern Australia, but is absent from the deserts of central Australia and the monsoon tropics of northern Australia! It has a characteristic rollicking birdsong! It appears to be adapting well to city living, and can be encountered in the suburbs of many Australian cities including Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney!" Lisa explained. "The Grey butcherbird is known to feed on invertebrates, mainly insects, small vertebrates, including other small birds and their nestlings and lizards, and occasionally fruit and small seeds! Any uneaten food can be stored in the fork of a branch to be consumed later! Plus, uneaten food and food that is too large to be eaten whole can also be impaled or stored for later on sharp branches or thorns! As for how it hunts, the Grey Butcherbird sits in branches and waits for prey to be seen! Prey is often captured by the Grey Butcherbird sally-pouncing the prey on the ground! Small birds and insects can be captured in flight by using sally-striking! The grey butcherbird also ambushes the foraging birds while they are on the ground, usually approaching and attacking them from behind! Plus, the Grey Butcherbird either feeds alone, in pairs, or in small family groups!" David added.
"From the Insect Army." Brachios said. "There's Burrowroach, the Giant Burrowing Cockroach Animarius, Eurycnemath, the Goliath Stick Insect Animarius, and his girlfriend Extatosomala, the Giant Prickly Stick Insect Animarius!" He explained. "Then from the Mammal Army." Brachios further explained. "There's Boxaroo, the Red Kangaroo Animarius, Koalash, the Koala Animarius, Tasmaniac, the Tasmanian Devil Animarius, Platypulp, the Platypus Animarius, Bandicool, the Long-Nosed Bandicoot Animarius, Diproton, the Diprotodon Animarius, and Thylacino, the Thylacine Animarius!" He explained. "Thylacine?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "Also known as the Tasmanian Tiger or Tasmanian Wolf, but despite said nicknames, is actually an extinct species of Marsupial, not related to either the Tiger or Wolf." Lisa explained. "Specifically, it was carnivorous striped dog-like Marsupial that was an apex predator, which preferred birds like Emus, before it became extinct in the island of New Guinea and mainland Australia due the arrival of the dingos, which hunted most of their prey, but didn't become extinct in the island of Tasmania until the arrival of European human settlers, who saw the Thylacines as a threat to their livestock of farmers, mostly because of numerous mysterious attacks on sheep, and introduced bounty hunting in order to control their numbers, which, unfortunately, worked too well! Aside from persecution, it is likely that multiple factors rapidly compounded its decline and eventual extinction, including competition with wild dogs introduced by European settlers, erosion of its habitat, already-low genetic diversity, the concurrent extinction or decline of prey species, and a distemper-like disease that affected many captive specimens at the time! Eventually, it all came to the point where the last known of its species died in 1936 at Hobart Zoo in Tasmania!" David explained.
"Although some say they've seen living examples, but there's no concrete proof." Lisa added. "And leading them all is Bunyippus the Bunyip Animarius from King Draco's Royal Guard." Brachios said. "Bunyip?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "A creature of Aboriginal folklore from Southeastern Australia." Lisa said, pulling up an Artist's rendering on her phone. "It's said to lurk in swamps, billabongs, creeks, riverbeds, and waterholes." David explained. "Of course, the physical descriptions of the Bunyip tend to vary between accounts, either as being a bird-like creature, as being a combination of dog and seal traits with walrus-like tusks, as having crocodile-like traits, being long-necked with a horse-like face, mane, and tail, or even having a duck-like bill like a Platypus!" David explained. "That Bunyippus is the worst of them all! What I wouldn't give to be the one to drive a sword into that black heart of his!" Makros said angrily.
"Sheesh! You seem to have a serious personal grudge against that Bunyip guy!" Aurachnid noted. "He rules over my planet with an Iron Fist, every day sending our strongest men to the mines beneath our planet's surface, demanding our women give birth to more slaves every day, and if they are unable to bear children, he ruthlessly orders their execution." Makros said angrily. Everyone gasped in shock and horror at that. "I was hoping by coming here I'd be able to find some way to free my people from the suffering we've endured the last 5,000 years." Makros said. "Well, there is one way." Lincoln said, pulling out his driver. "This has the ability to seal the Animarius Empire in a stone tablet, knowing King Draco, he's likely already called those he has on Straya over, we can defeat them and seal them in this." He explained. "Really? How?" Makros asked. "When an Animarius is defeated while their medallion is attached, they revert to a Soul Core, that Soul Core can be sealed into the driver." Toadus explained.
"Uh, what exactly happens to an Animarius if they're defeated while they're Medals are not attached?" Kanganeurobster asked. "We fade away forever." Toadus explained. "After what he has been doing to my people for the last 5,000 years, Bunyippus deserves that kind of fate more than anything!" Makros declared angrily. "Believe me, I feel the same way about this one Animarius named Cerberion." Sakura said angrily. "Who?" Kanganeurobster asked in confusion. "A Cerberus Animarius with the nickname 'Hell's Watchdog'. He has a habit of killing innocent people and capturing their souls in orbs that he carries around on a bandolier." Toadus said. "And amongst those people he killed *Sniff* were my parents, Oniichan, and unborn Ototo and Imoto." Sakura said, starting to cry before Lincoln hugged her out of comfort and kissed the top of her head. "Oniichan, Ototo, and Imoto?" Makros asked in confusion, due to not being familiar with the Japanese language.
"Older brother, younger brother, and younger sister." Lisa translated. "Older brother, younger brother, and younger sister." Lisa translated. "They hadn't even been born yet! I didn't even know my Mama was pregnant until recently!" Sakura said, continuing to cry in Lincoln's arms as he tried to sooth his girlfriend. To Makros, that really struck a nerve. "Makros, are you okay?" Kanganeurobster asked upon noticing the look on Makros's face. "Not if his aura is anything to go by!" Aya said in fright upon seeing the Gurrugan's aura. "As if enslaving my people wasn't bad enough, but the Empire dares to kill the unborn?!" Makros asked angrily. "To make matters worse, when I confronted Cerberion about it the other day, he seemed overjoyed about the idea that he killed two unborn children!" Sakura said. That obviously made Makros angrier. "Why would he do such a thing?" Makros asked. "Sakura is descended from the Ronin and Nature Fairy who fought back against the Animarius Empire when they first arrived on Earth 5,000 years ago, Cerberion is looking for revenge by wiping their descendants off the face of the Earth." Lincoln explained.
Makros was shocked at that. "Yeah, that sounds like something Hell's Watchdog would do, he's pretty crazy!" A voice said as everyone turned to see all the soldiers, sans Savanarra, who was hiding in a nearby bush. Kookaburst started laughing in a way similar to an Earth Kookabura. "You seriously thought you could escape? Hilarious!" He said. Makros growled angrily at that. Suddenly, a swarm of Demi Diablos arrived as well! "Demi Diablos as well?" Ronnie Anne asked in shock. "They aren't alone, humans!" Two voices called out as two new Pecadiablos arrived. The first one looked like a little male red bat-winged frog-like humanoid with a very big head, a large mouth with no teeth, and suckers on the ends of his hands and feet while the second one looked like a male humanoid Quoll with bat wings on his back and human-like arms and legs with sharp claws while carrying a sharp spear in his right hand. "Jax?" Ronnie Anne asked in confusion. "*Gasp!* Those two are Yara-max and Kinie-growl!" Jax said. "As for what their based on, Yara-max is based on something called a Yara-ma-yha-who while Kinie-growl is based on something called a Kinie Ger, whatever those are!" She added.
For the umpteenth time that night, everyone turned to Lisa and David in confusion, both of whom simply sighed. "They're humanoids of Australian folklore." Lisa said. "The Yara-ma-yha-who, sccording to legend, was a diurnal, meaning only active during the day, bloodsucking creature that resembles a little red frog-like man with a very big head, a large mouth with no teeth, and suckers on the ends of its hands and feet! The Yara-ma-yha-who is said to live in fig trees! Instead of hunting for food, it is described as waiting for an unsuspecting traveller to rest under the tree! The creature then drops down and uses its suckers to drain the victim's blood! After that, it swallows the person, drinks some water, and then takes a nap! When the Yara-ma-yha-who awakens, it regurgitates the victim, leaving them shorter than before! The victim's skin also has a reddish tint to it that it didn't have before! If this process is repeated, the victim becomes a Yara-ma-yha-who themselves without any memories of ever being originally human!" She explained.
"What about the other one?" Sid asked. "The Kinie Ger was described as half human and half quoll, the latter of which being a carnivorous marsupial related to the Tasmanian devil! It was a ruthless killer with the head, tail, and body of a quoll and the limbs of a man! It wandered around killing innocent people, birds, and animals and was the terror of the bush! In the myth, the creature was stated to have been killed by an owl and a crow, who both ambushed him when he came to drink at a water hole! Supposedly, when the creature was finally defeated, it lost its human limbs, shrank down, and became the first quoll, the founding father of the quoll species!" David explained. "Yikes, who's army are these two from?" Carlota asked as Panopticon and Alraunellie shifted to their demon forms and Desco deactivated her disguise.
"Being that he has a huge appetite for human blood, Yara-max is from Gloton's army while Kinie-growl, who prefers to kill people and animals for nothing but sport, even to the point of collecting his kills and turn them into trophies, is from Cocidia's army!" Panopticon said, much to the anger of Sid and Adelaide, who twitched their left eyes at Kinie-growl's description. "So the rumors are true, we do have some dobbers!" Yara-max said in disgust upon seeing Panopticon and Alraunellie. "Some what?" Lincoln asked. "It's an Australian Slang word for traitor." Lisa explained. "Like we care what you think!" Alraunellie said. "You tell them, sweetie!" Desco said. "What the bloody hell is this?! A female falling in love with another female?! That's just not right!" Kinie-growl said in disgust. Only to be blasted in the face by one of Becky's energy beams. "Watch your tone, ugly!" She declared. Obviously, that attack made Kinie-growl angry. "You're going to pay for that, human!" He declared. "We'll just see about that!" Lincoln said as he, Sakura, Clyde, Shintomaru, and Edge prepared their drivers and Aden pulled out the Ouroblade.
0-0-0-1, Let's Go!
Ruby! Sapphire! Topaz! Emerald!
Spider On!
"Henshin!/Lucha Power!/Alchemeister!" They all called, taking on their heroic alter egos.
Kamen Ride! Decade!
Taka! Tora! Batta! Ta-to-ba, Tatoba, Ta-to-ba!
Needless to say, Makros and Kanganeurobster were both shocked to see that. "The champion sworn to protect humanity at all costs, Kamen Rider LL!" Lincoln called. "The princess destined to eradicate the darkness of evil with the light of good, Kamen Rider Jewel!" Sakura called. "The Spider Warrior from Africa, chosen by Kwaku Anansi himself! Kamen Rider Anansi!" Clyde announced. "Like the phoenix from the ashes, I am reborn! Protector of worlds, Kamen Rider Neo-Decade!" Shintomaru called. "Also reborn from death, the Core Medal user with the desire to protect everyone, Kamen Rider Neo-OOO!" Edge called. "Storm Power, LuchaPurple!"
"Sound Power, LuchaBlue!"
"Metal Power, LuchaRed!"
"Sand Power, LuchaGreen!"
"Crystal Power, LuchaPink!"
"Mind Power, LuchaYellow!"
"Solar Power, LuchaGold!"
"Lunar Power, LuchaSilver!"
"Energy Power, LuchaCyan!"
"Matter Power, LuchaOrange!"
"Magnet Power, LuchaMagnet!"
"Spirit Power, LuchaAmber!"
"Alchemy Power, LuchaVermillion!"
"Nature Power, LuchaTeal!"
"Luck Power, LuchaIndigo!"
"Dream Power, LuchaLavender!"
"Venom Power, LuchaMagenta!"
"Gas Power, LuchaBrown!"
"Strength Power, LuchaBronze!"
"Speed Power, LuchaCopper!"
"Guardian spirits awaken and unite! Alebrije Sentai!" Ronnie Anne chanted. "Lucharanger!" They all called. "Uh, I'm still working on my own roll call, so...Alchemeister!" Aden said. "What on this planet?!" Makros asked in shock. "I know, crazy right?" Yui asked as she allowed her fox ears and tail to pop out. That made Makros even more surprised. "My father, brother, niece, nephew, and I are all part Kitsune, a mystical fox like being." She explained. "This certainly is one strange planet." Makros muttered. "Says the guy who's from a world of people that resemble the national animal of Australia." Lisa said, pulling up a picture of a Kangaroo on her phone and a mirror. "Okay, first of all, we have much shorter muzzles than that!" Makros said. "And secondly, we're much more upright in position when standing!" He added. "I bet you can't hit as hard as us!" Boxaroo called, trying to sneak in a jump attack, only for AkaRed to intercept him, slamming his boots into the Kangaroo Animarius, sending him back before getting up and dusting himself off as Mambana slithered up to him.
"Whoa! Who are you two?" Kanganeurobster asked in surprise. "I am the inheritor of the Red Souls, I am AkaRed! And this is Mambana, we're friends of those guys." AkaRed said, gesturing to the heroes who were all fighting against the sudden ambush. "And you, Makros, are about to face your destiny!" AkaRed said. "My destiny?" Makros asked in confusion. "Tell me, young Gurrugan." AkaRed said as Kookaburst attempted to ambush him, only to receive a backhand that knocked him out. "Do you remember being hit by a shockwave on your way to Earth and being bathed in light?" AkaRed asked. "Actually, yes, I did get hit by shockwave, and it bathed me in Crimson-colored light!" Makros noted. "And immediately after, he came onboard my ship through a portal." Makros said, pointing to Kanganeurobster. "That shockwave came from the world of the Alebrije, the fact that it bathed you in light proves that you have been chosen to help fight the evil that threatens this planet as a member of the Alebrije Sentai Lucharanger!" AkaRed explained.
That made both Makros and Kanganeurobster rather surprised. "I came to this planet to fight the evil that conquered my planet and make sure it doesn't meet the same fate, if that means joining this team then so be it!" Makros said in determination. "In that case." Kanganeurobster said, flying up. "Gurrugan Makros, I the Alebrije Kanganeurobster, hereby give you my blessing, with it, you will have my powers over the element of space!" The Alebrije said, bathing Makros in Crimson colored light. "What kind of powers come with the element of Space?" Lisa asked in confusion. "Well, let's see, there's the ability to breath in the vacuum of space, being able to travel through space at any speed, including lightspeed and hyperspeed, and the ability to manipulate cosmic energy!" Kanganeurobster explained. "And with those powers come the moniker 'LuchaCrimson'!" AkaRed said, handing Makros a Lucha Changer of said color with an image of a Galaxy on it. Makros looked at the device in confusion. "You put it on your wrist." AkaRed instructed.
Then, Makros did exactly that. "Then you ring the bell once and shout 'Lucha Power'!" AkaRed instructed. "Just what is this 'Lucha' you speak of, no such term exists on Straya." Makros asked in confusion. "It's short for Luchadores, which are masked wrestlers who fight in Lucha Libre, meaning "Free Fight" in Spanish, which is a style of professional wrestling originating in Mexico!" Ronnie Anne explained. "The combatants dress up in costumes, which always includes a mask, and brawl for the entertainment of others." Lisa explained. That made Makros shudder in disgust. "How repulsive! That reminds me of how some of these Animarius over here, usually Boxaroo, sometimes force the males of my people, whenever they're not working at the mines, into fighting each other in brutal one-one-one battles against their wills, just to ease their own boredom!" Makros said while pointing at the Animarius soldiers, especially at Boxaroo. "Fortunately, there are rules to such an event, such as the intentional removal of a mask, which represents honor, family, and a great sense of pride, results in the immediate disqualification of the remover, as well as a few others we really don't have the time to get into!" Ronnie Anne said, slamming an electrified fist into the face of Butcherbeak, who was about to attack Sid from behind.
"Plus, unlike what you have just described, Makros, nobody in Lucha Libre, or any kind of wrestling or martial arts fights, are forced into fighting against their wills! Rather, they all do it willingly and without killing each other!" Lisa explained. "Interesting. I shall have to learn more about this planet's customs if I am to help protect it, but for now, Lucha Power!" Makros declared, ringing the bell.
Morphing Sequence
Makros was standing in the middle of a wrestling ring with the Galaxy symbol on the ground as electricity transformed his outfit into a Crimson-colored version of the male Lucharangers' uniform, albeit with his kangaroo-like feet and tail still intact. Afterwards, Kanganeurobster made a growling noise (yes, male Kangaroos growl when angered or threatened) as he descended onto Makros's head, transforming into a helmet resembling his head. "Space Power! LuchaCrimson!" Makros announced. "Impressive." Makros said, admiring his outfit. "My thoughts exactly!" Kanganeurobster agreed. "Now, let's see what I can do here!" Makros declared. Makros then started having his fists coated in Crimson-colored cosmic energy. Before jumping into the battle. "Hey you!" Makros called out to Boxaroo, gaining the Red Kangaroo Animarius's attention. Before slamming his fist into the Kangaroo Animarius' face.
"Oof!" Boxaroo exclaimed in pain as he staggered back before getting back to his senses. "So, you want a boxing match with me, eh?" Boxaroo asked as he brought up his spiked boxing gloves. "Bring it on!" Boxaroo called, thrusting his fist forward, Makros doing the same. "They do know Kangaroos primarily use their legs for fighting, and their forearms to hold opponents in place, right?" David asked. (Look It Up) Aya then took a look at both Makros and Boxaroo's auras. "Apparently, they are both capable of kicking like real Kangaroos do, they just prefer to use their fists!" Aya said. "Gurrugans have a special fighting style involving both their arms!" Makros said, delivering an uppercut to Boxaroo. "Their legs." He said, balancing on his tail and delivering a double kick to the Animarius. "And their tail!" He said, spinning and slamming his tail into the Kangaroo Animarius. "I just use my fists most often." He explained.
"Oof! You're just as tenacious as your father, you little punk!" Boxaroo said in annoyance. "Father?" Lisa asked. "He's talking about Boldron, my father!" Makros said. "He also wanted to free Straya from these menaces' control." Makros admitted. "Too bad he lost to me in a boxing match after he attempted to lead a rebellion against us, which resulted in him and his fellow rebels being put through the worst kind of torture there ever is before being put back to work in the Eternalite mines under much stricter supervision!" Boxaroo said before laughing. "On that day, I swore that no matter what, I would free my people from you monsters!" Makros said angrily. That made the evil Animarius soldiers laugh at Makros's expense. While everyone was distracted, Savannara snuck up to the computer. "I'm sure I saw his face on this computer." She muttered. She tapped a key, making the screensaver end, showing Brachios, Akari, and Zennsuke still there.
"Huh? Who's that?" Zensuke asked in confusion. "Savannara, is that you?" Brachios asked in surprise. "Brachios, my love, it is so good to see you again. When word of that landslide reached me on Straya, I was devastated!" Savannara said. "I'm so sorry that you felt that way, Savannara!" Brachios apologized. "If it makes you feel any better, not a day has gone by in the last 5,000 years where I haven't thought about you." Brachios said. "Same here" Savannara said, showing her Linked Hearts necklace and the engagement ring necklace she was wearing. At the same time, Brachios showed his Linked Hearts bracelet. "I want to be with you again, my love." Savannara said. "Doesn't Lisa-chan have a teleporter you can use?" Zennsuke asked. "Indeed I do!" Lisa said, appearing next to Savannara. That caused Savannara to get instantly startled. "Apologies, Lisa Loud, pleased to meet you." Lisa said.
"Uh, okay?" Savannara said in confusion. "Anyway, it's as Zennsuke said, I have a teleporter, all I have to do is set it to the coordinates needed, and you'll be with your beloved in no time!" Lisa said, pulling out said device. "Really? You mean it?" Savannara asked hopefully. "Indeed, only question, would you like to be reunited at the shrine or the cave Brachios has been living in?" Lisa asked. "I would prefer the shrine!" Savannara answered. "No problem." Lisa said, setting the teleporter to the coordinates that made up where Brachios currently was and pushing the button. "Uh oh." Brachios said, recognizing the roar. "Something wrong, Brachios-san?" Akari asked.
"I know that roar! It's Australovenatus!" Brachios said in worry. "Sounds like an Australovenator Animarius, which given the fact that it's name means Southern Hunter, I'm guessing that's not a good thing." Zennsuke said. As he said that, Australovenatus came and leaped towards Savannara furiously with his claws and teeth out. "To say the least, it looks like." Akari said. "Savannara!" Brachios said in concern. "How dare you attempt to leave our group for that traitor?!" Australovenatus asked furiously. "He is my one true love, why wouldn't I?!" Savannara asked in fear. "You know very well that the price for treason and desertion is death!" Australovenatus angrily said. Only for Andros' blades to pop out of his stomach. "I don't think so, punk!" Andros said, easily lifting Australovenatus off of Savannara where he was soon greeted by Phixia, Panopticon, and Alraunellie.
"Why... you... little!" Australovenatus said in pain. "Take this chance, Lisa!" Andros said. "You got it!" Lisa said, aiming the teleporter at Savannara and pushing the button. As soon as that happened, a portal opened up in front of Savannara. As well as the room where Brachios, Akari, and Zennsuke were. "Wait for me right there, I'll help!" Brachios said, running into the portal, appearing on the other side. "My love!" Savannara said in happiness, much to the anger of Australovenatus. "Traitor!" He declared angrily. "So, you were told about my survival and defection, I presume?" Brachios asked. "Yes, and obviously, I am not happy!" Australovenatus declared. "And neither are Kunbarrage and Minmia!" He added. "I don't care! Kadokawa-sama saved my life, for that reason, I owe him and his descendants my life!" Brachios said, slamming his tail into the Australovenator Animarius.
That caused even more pain to Australovenatus. "Why you little! Kunbarrage, Minmia!" He said, calling for the two. However, there was no response. "Oh, right! I forgot that those two, along with Frillion, Saltina, Phycodura, Talkatoo, Bandicool, Diproton, and Thylacino, are still with Bunyippus back on Straya, just to make sure that planet isn't left totally unsupervised!" Australovenatus realized with a facepalm. "Too bad!" Andros said as he slashed Australovenatus with his claws, Phixia fired elemental blasts at him, Panopticon struck him with his staff, and Alraunellie struck him with a vine, all of which were enough combined to break his Soul Core. "Darn It!" Australovenatus yelled out before he exploded and reverted into a Soul Core with the image of an Australovenator on it. "Looks like the 'Southern Hunter' just got hunted in the North!" Aulranellie joked before picking up the Soul Core and tossing it to Lincoln.
"*Chuckle!* Good one, Nellie!" Lincoln said before sealing Australovenatus's Soul Core into his driver. "Come my love, we can escape to Japan, you can hide out with me in the cave I've been hiding in, we can even find a way for you to help out in the shrine, and make you a disguise so you can blend in with the humans like me." Brachios told Savannara. "Okay, but, these humans have short necks while you and I have long necks! How can I disguise myself as one?" Savannara asked in confusion. "We were able to make a disguise work for me, I'm sure we can find a way to do the same for you." Brachios assured. "Plus, I can easily squash my neck down, like this!" He added before doing so. Savannara did the same. "Works for me, as long as I can be with you, I don't care where we go." She said as Brachios lead her through the portal. "Aw, totally kawaii!" Sakura beamed before punching a Demi Diablo in the face.
As that was happening, Shibogumon with Skeleton suddenly showed up, much to Clyde's anger. "You!" Clyde said angrily. "What? Did you expect me to not show up to this brawl?" Shibogumon asked before laughing. "What is his problem?" Makros asked after punching Boxaroo again. "Shibogumon killed his birth mother." Lincoln explained. "What?! How could one little spider and whatever that thing is be able to do such a horrible thing?!" Makros asked in shock and confusion. "Oh trust me, young one, I am much more than that!" Shibogumon said biting down on Skeletron's shoulder summoning his driver.
Armed Spider On!
"Henshin!" The Skeletron called, transforming. "Kamen Rider Armadeiras!" Shibogumon called. "Kamen Rider? Why does he that title even though he's clearly an enemy?!" Makros asked in confusion. "When it comes to moral compasses, there are four types of Kamen Riders, heroes like us, Anti-heroes like my past life, Anti-villains, and Villains or Dark Riders like him." Shintomaru explained. "And I'm not the only Dark Rider here!" Shibogumon said as Stephano, Akuji, and Futaba walked into the scene. "Mou, seriously!?" Sakura complained. "Who are they?" Makros asked in confusion. "Allow us to answer that." Futaba said as they all pulled out their drivers. Stephano then pulled out his Weather Memory and pressed the button.
Weather!
"Henshin!" Stephano said as he then loaded the Weather Memory into his driver and twisted the right handle on his three times, activating his transformation.
Weather!
While Akuji clicked the button on the side of his personal Eyecon and loaded it into his driver.
Eye! Batchiri Jaaku!
"Henshin!" Akuji said as pulled the lever on his driver, releasing his personal Parka Ghost that immediately merged with him to create his Rider form
Kaigan! Mortem! Bad Go! Kakugo! Jaakuna (Sinister) Ghost! (~Dark Guitar Riff!~)
Futaba then prepared his own driver.
Tetra Driver!
The Ophanimaton then hovered towards Futaba before it flattened itself into a disc shape and got loaded into his driver. "Henshin!" Futaba said as he slammed his right fist down onto the four-faced dial on the top of his driver, causing the closed up eye-covered wings on the center of the driver to open up like a gate and reveal the Ophanimaton in the center that immediately spun around like an armillary sphere.
Knight Mode! Activate!
That also caused Futaba to be surrounded by two huge golden eye-covered rings while an ethereal version of a Tetramorph a.k.a. Cherub flew around him before wrapping its four wings around him and turned into pure energy particles that merged with him and morphed into his own Rider suit, completing his transformation.
(*~Medeval Music!~*) Rise up! Sword out! Fight on! Kamen Rider Tetra, Knight Mode! (*Sword Swishing!*)
"Kamen Rider Weather!" Stephano called. "Kamen Rider Mortem!" Akuji called. "Kamen Rider Tetra!" Futaba said. Makros was utterly confused at that. "Just to clarify, Weather's real name is Stephano Inverso, Mortem's real name is Akuji Sone, and Tetra's real name is Futaba! The first two are human while the last one is from a race of beings known as Shadow Angels!" Lisa explained. "And for added fun." Futaba said as Golshi suddenly appeared. "I brought in a friend!" Futaba said. Golshi then let out a growl in eagerness to fight. "Allow me to introduce you to the Preternatural Strength Angel Golshi! He doesn't talk much, or at all really." Futaba said. "But, as his title suggests, he is super strong!" He added. "Yeah, well so are we!" Bobby and Kabutocerosteus called, slamming a fist into the silent angel's face. Obviously, that made Golshi really ticked off quite easily. "Uh, Bobby? For future reference, Preternatural means beyond what is normal or natural." Lisa informed Bobby.
"Wait, you mean... Uh Oh!" Bobby realized in worry as Golshi loomed over him before slamming his huge fist down right onto him hard, sending the Bronze Lucharanger down many miles underground, literally. "BOBBY BOO-BOO BEAR!/KABUTOCEROSTEUS!" Lori and Paralanusium shouted in horror. "We're Okay!" Bobby and Kabutocerosteus called out from far below the ground with an echo. "Not cool, tall dark and ugly! Not cool!" Lori reprimanded Golshi. Golshi simply growled at her, unamused. "Uh, Lori-neechan, I don't think you're scaring him." Sakura said. "I'd second that!" Aya said. "Well let's see if he likes this!" Lori said, trying to deliver a kick to Golshi's groin. Unfortunately, for Lori, she ended up her hurting herself while Golshi was unaffected. "OW! OW! OW!" Lori yelped in pain as she was holding her right foot while hopping on her left foot. "Armor plating on the groin! Armor plating on the groin!" Lori said as Golshi made some animalistic groans. "I know, I can't believe Draco has had such problems with these people either!" Futaba said.
"Just what kind of people are these Shadow Angels and why are they allied with someone as evil as King Draco?!" Makros asked in confusion. "They consider humans to be inferior, and actually take pleasure in killing humans." Lincoln started explaining. "Also, believe or not, they're from another universe!" He added. "And Futaba is especially angry towards humans after he was captured and killed by some." Aurachnid said, making Futaba growl and tighten the grip on his sword at the memory. "Wait a minute, killed? But, he doesn't look dead to me!" Makros said in confusion. "That's because Drako was able to revive me and my fellow Shadow Angels." Futaba said. "It's a very long story!" Clyde said. "Very long." Aurachnid said.
Meanwhile...
Edge, Aden, and Azalee were up against Tasmaniac, Koalash, and Platypulp. "You humans seriously think you stand a chance against us?" Tasmaniac asked, laughing before spinning around and forming a tornado. "Uh Oh!" Edge said as he got caught in the tornado. "Edge!" Azalee and Aden called in worry. "You're next, kids!" Koalash said as he slashed at Aden with his claws while Platypulp struck Azalee with his venomous spurs, causing the Vermillion Lucharanger to feel incredibly weak. "What the heck?" Aden asked in confusion. "Little known fact about the Ornithorhyncus Anatinus, street name Platypus, the males produce a special venom that they use on other males during mating season, it's not lethal to humans, but still, it can inflict weeks of agony." Lisa informed the Metal Hero as Azalee started groaning in agonizing pain. "I've got your back, Azalee!" Carlota said, using her powers to remove the venom from Azalee's body.
This made Azalee sigh in relief. "Thanks, Carlota, I needed that!" Azalee said in relief. "No problem, hey Lisa! You said they use this stuff on other males, right?" Carlota asked. "Yes, that's exactly what I said!" Lisa answered. "Then I think it's time this punk got a taste of his own medicine!" Carlota said, coating her fingers in the venom she collected and striking Platypulp several times, each time injecting a little bit of his own venom. "Ow! Just what do ya think you're trying to do, lady?!" Platypulp asked in annoyance. Before feeling the same effects Azalee was just feeling. "I mixed your venom with a little bit of Scolorfi's just in case." Carlota explained. "Ohhhhh crud!" Platypulp said in weakness. "And to add insult to injury, Ouroblade!" Aden called, charging the Ouroblade and summoning it's familiar. The familiar then wrapped itself around Platypulp and prevented him from getting away, allowing Aden to slash at the Platypus Animarius. "Ouroboros Break!" Aden called, performing his finisher.
That caused Platypulp to yell in agony and say "Curse you, Alchemeister!" before exploding and reverting back into a Soul Core with the image of a swimming Platypus on it. Aden then picked it up and tossed it over to Lincoln. "Thanks, Aden!" Lincoln said as he sealed Platypulp's Soul Core into his driver. "Who's next?" Aden asked as Edge was freed from Tasmaniac's tornado. "Edge, my love, are you okay?" Azalee asked her boyfriend. "Has anyone seen the license plate on that tornado?" Edge asked while totally dizzy. Before regaining his composure. "You're going to pay for that! Good thing I borrowed these from Tatakau-san!" Edge said, pulling out three new Core Medals in different shades of brown, with the first one being dark brown with the image of a snarling Tasmanian Devil facing left, the second one being regular brown with the image of a Koala facing forwards, and the third being a familiar light brown medal with the image of a hopping Kangaroo wearing boxing gloves facing right, and loading them into the OOO Driver and running the O Scanner over them.
Tasumaniandebiru (Tasmanian Devil)! Koara (Koala)! Kangaru (Kangaroo)! (*Didgeridoo Blowing*!) Tasukoagaru! (*Drums Beating!*) Tasukoagaru! (*Wind Blowing, followed by Thunder Cracking!*)
That's when the images surrounding Edge stopped and showed the symbols of the Tasmanian Devil, Koala, and Kangaroo Core Medals before they then merged into one symbol and attached itself to Edge's chest to convert his form into a brand new all-brown form that had a blue-eyed Tasmanian Devil-themed helmet, a pair of clawed gauntlets shaped like Koala hands with Koala head-shaped shoulder pads, and a pair of brown kangaroo-themed leg armor with silver springs on the front of the armor and ending in red sneaker-like boots. The name of this new Marsupial-themed Combo is Tasukoagaru. "What the heck?! You have the combined animal motifs of me, Koalash, and Boxaroo?!" Tasmaniac asked in shock and confusion. "Trust me, this is only a small part of what I can do." Edge said. Edge then started hopping around on the spring-powered Kangaroo Legs in preparedness to fight.
"Ha! Alright, show us what you've got!" Koalash dared. "Okay, if you insist!" Edge replied as he literally hopped towards Koalash and then slashed him with his Koala Claws. "Get him, Koalash!" Tasmaniac declared as Azalee kicked him. "Ow! What was that for?!" Tasmaniac asked in pain. "For what you did to my boyfriend before!" Azalee said. She then used her Alchemy Powers to pull out a sword from a nearby stone. "Seriously? That stupid kid is your boyfriend?" Tasmaniac asked before laughing, making Azalee angry. Before she slashed Tasmaniac with her sword. "Never, Ever Call My Boyfriend Stupid!" Azalee shouted angrily. As this was going on, Edge continued to put the hurt down on Koalash as Azalee knocked Tasmaniac into him before Edge ran the O scanner over his driver.
Scanning Charge!
That's when three rings of different shades of brown enveloped Edge before his Tasmanian Devil symbol on his chest emblem glowed, causing his Tasmanian Devil-themed helmet to glow as he spun around and produced his own tornado that sucked in both Tasmaniac and Koalash into it. Then, after the two Marsupial-themed Animarius were spat out of the tornado, which quickly dissipated, Edge announced "Marsupial Knockout!" before charged forwards as the Koala and Kangaroo symbols on his chest emblem glowed, just as Edge slashed the two Animarius with the Koala Claws and then finished by producing a mechanical Kangaroo tail from his rear end and performed an electrified double leg kick that struck Tasmaniac and Koalash, causing them to say "YOU BLASTED MEDDLING PUNK!" before they exploded and reverted into two Soul Cores, one with the image of a snarling Tasmanian Devil on it and the other one having the image of a Koala on it. "Thanks for the assist there, Azalee-chan!" Edge said. "You're welcome, Edge! Nobody messes with my boyfriend and gets away with it!" Azalee replied.
Meanwhile...
Shockwing was watching the brawl from a distance. He then noticed Butcherbeak amongst the Animarius soldiers from Straya and got a bit scared. "Oh great, he's here. I hope he doesn't recognize me in this form." Shockwing said. "What's your problem?" Aya asked as Shockwing turned to face her. Although not obvious due to LuchaAmber's helmet, Aya was glaring angrily at her mother and sister's killer. "Oh, it's you!" Shockwing said sarcastically. "Listen, that guy over there is Butcherbeak, one of the most feared Bird Animarius known in the Empire, and he and I don't exactly get along!" He explained. "OH really?" Aya asked, starting to get interested. "And why not?" She asked, starting to get an idea. "Well for one thing, he actually liked Tytus as well, and the day she and I became an item, I kind of took credit for the thing he thought for sure would catch her attention, but that's just one reason." Shockwing said with a chuckle.
"And what would that thing be?" Aya asked. "Well, Butcherbeak thought that doing an elaborate dance of display would catch Tytus's attention!" Shockwing answered. "Elaborate dance of display?" Aya asked in confusion. "Oh, like this! Watch!" Shockwing said as he fanned out his fiery peacock tail feathers and then did a few dance moves that are basically like a combination of the MC Hammer Dance and the Moonwalk. Aya started laughing. "I can't believe that actually worked! Oh, and look Shockwing!" Aya said, putting emphasis on his name. "You caught his attention!" Aya said, pointing the rogue prinny to Butcherbeak. That caused Shockwing to abruptly stop dancing and look at the Grey Butcherbird Animarius nervously. "*Chuckle!* Hey, Butcherbeak! You just and saw everything, didn't you?" Shockwing asked nervously. "Oh, I did, and that makes me mad! But, what makes me madder is, from what I was just told from Tytus herself before we got here, the fact that you had the audacity to go and drug Tytus with a roofie and then STRAIGHT UP TAKE HER INNOCENCE WHILE SHE'S UNCONSCIOUS!" Butcherbeak answered angrily, making Shockwing gulp in fright. "You're lucky she's dating Ospreyus now, otherwise, this would hurt a lot more!" Butcherbeak said, slamming a fist into Shockwing's face, sending him back to the Kendall Apartment. That caused the Rogue Prinny to crash right through a window and land onto the couch, much to the confusion of the main Pecadiablos. "What the hell happened to you, Shockwing?" Iracundo asked in confusion.
"I don't want to talk about it." Shockwing said. "Let me guess, you've just met someone who hates your guts enough to send you sailing back to our apartment, right?" Pereza asked. "*Sigh!* You're right on the nose on that one! It was Butcherbeak that did this to me!" Shockwing said. "And who exactly is Butcherbeak?" Gloton asked. "He's a Grey Butcherbird Animarius and, well, he and I don't really get along with each other!" Shockwing said. "Clearly." Iracundo said.
Meanwhile...
"General Aquilis, such strength and loyalty could be useful in our endeavors, should we try and get Butcherbeak on board for Operation Trade Winds?" Ospreyus asked. "Hmmm! That would be useful, though I'm not sure how he would react when we tell him everything about it!" Aquilis noted. "We still have the memory drones, if he declines we can erase his memory of it." Tytus pointed out, holding one such drone. "That's a good point, but let's wait until after we tell him everything first, including the truth about King Draco himself, before decide to do that!" Aquilis said. "Very well." Tytus said, putting the drone aside. "What about Kookaburst and Emudash?" Falkyrie asked. "Yeah, admittedly, I don't think that Kookaburst considered trustworthy enough, since he is rather sadistic and likes to take pleasure with killing people, much to my own chagrin! Emudash, on the other hand, might be a bit more agreeable!" Aquilis said. "Ospreyus, fetch them, but leave Kookaburst to the riders and their friends." Aquilis instructed the Osprey Animarius. "At once, General Aquilis!" Ospreyus said before flying off.
Back with the others...
Sid was facing off against Kookaburst while Par was racing against Emudash. "Whoa! You know, you're impressively fast enough to catch up to me! My cousin Ostrush was the only flightless bird Animarius to do so!" Emudash said while impressed. "Thanks, I think!" Par replied. At the same time Sid was using her Sonic Scream at Kookaburst, though the latter was able to dodge the attack quite easily. "You call that loud? Here's why I'm called Kookaburst!" Kookaburst declared as he let out a sonic Kookaburra laugh at Sid that was way louder then her own sonic scream, causing the Blue Lucharanger to cover her ears in agonizing pain as she fell on her knees. "Owwwwww! Why Me?!" Sid asked in pain. Suddenly, Ospreyus dropped down, stopping both fights. "What the heck? Who's that?" Par asked in confusion. "You may call me Ospreyus." Ospreyus introduced. "An Animarius based off of the Pandion Haliaetus?" Lisa asked in awe.
Everyone looked at her and David in confusion. "*Sigh!* Commonly known as the Osprey, also called Sea Hawk, River Hawk, and Fish Hawk!" David explained. "He's also the one that has captured Tytus' heart." Butcherbeak explained. "Yes, and she and General Aquilis wish to have a word with you, Butcherbeak, you too, Emudash." Ospreyus explained. "Really? But, why?" Emudash asked in confusion. "I'm afraid I can't divulge that kind of information in present company." Ospreyus explained. "*Sigh!* Fine!" Emudash said. "What about me?" Kookaburst asked. "Uh, you just stay here and keep doing whatever you are doing!" Ospreyus answered. Before grabbing Butcherbeak and Emudash and flying back to the castle. "I wonder what that's all about." Kookaburst said before getting hit by Sid's MaxLucha Mode powered scream. "YEOW! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" Kookaburst asked while covering his earholes in pain. "Top that!" Sid dared.
"Alright then, you me to top that, you got it! But, be warned, what you experienced before was only half of my full power, which I usually use to torture Gurrugan rebels into submission! When I go 100%, it would literally make your head explode into a bloody mess!" Kookaburst declared as he then let out an even louder sonic Kookaburra laugh straight at Sid. Only for Sid to fire a sonic bullet down the Kookaburra's attack, sailing through and going down his throat. That caused Kookaburst to stop his attack and then start choking. Before exploding and reverting back to a Soul Core with the image of a Kookaburra with it's beak open. "Man, I'm glad I'm rid of that guy! He gives Kookaburras everywhere a bad name!" Sid said as she picked up the Soul Core. "Not mention that he gave me one heck of a headache from that sonic attack of his, *Groan!* which I still have! Seriously, I still hear ringing in my ears!" She added while clutching her head in pain. "*Groan!* You and me both, Sid!" Ailuxucara said in equal pain.
"I've got your back, sis!" Adelaide and Lunastura said, using the Healing Moon. That made both Sid and Ailuxucara sigh in relief. "Thanks, Adelaide and Lulu." Sid said. "You're welcome!" Adelaide and Lunastura replied. "Here, Lincoln, Catch!" Sid said as she threw Kookaburst's Soul Core over to Lincoln, who caught it and sealed it into his driver. "Thanks, Sid! Alright, who's next?" Lincoln asked eagerly.
Meanwhile...
Casey and Jalissa were fighting against Pristisaw and Wobbegore. "Let's see how you two can deal with us in an Underwater Battle!" Pristisaw said as he and Wobbegore dove into the lake. "Ha! They just made a big mistake! One of the advantages of a childhood in Jamaica is that I had plenty of summers down by the beach!" Jalissa said, stretching. She then went and dove into the water. However, upon getting underwater, she couldn't see either Pristisaw or Wobbegore anywhere. 'Where are you, punks?' Jalissa thought to herself. Suddenly, as Jalissa got close to a nearby rock, Wobbegore suddenly sprang out of his hiding spot and bit Jalissa on the right leg, very hard *CHOMP!*. "YEOW!" Jalissa yelled in pain as Wobbegore kept his jaws shut on her right leg. Then, Pristisaw sprang out from underneath the sand and slashed his toothed rostrum (the Sawfish's saw) across Jalissa's stomach, causing Jalissa to scream in pain.
"Uh oh, something tells me they're in trouble!" Casey said before jumping in. There, Casey noticed a watered down trail of blood before seeing Jalissa, clearly with a few noticable bleeding puncture wounds on her stomach, being attacked by Wobbegore and Pristisaw. Swimming over, Casey blocked their further attacks with his metal powers before punching them both, grabbing Jalissa, and rushing to the surface. "Adelaide!" Casey called out after breaching. "Yes? What happened?" Adelaide asked before gasping at the sight of Jalissa's injuries. "No time to explain, I just need you to heal her while I figure out a way to beat these guys in their home turf, my metal powers will protect me, but I can't stay down underwater as long as they can!" Casey said. "You mind if I help?" Edge asked. Before pulling out three new Core Medals.
Specifically, those Medals are different shades of murky green, with the first one being regular murky green with the image of a Red-Bellied Piranha facing right, the second one being light murky green with the image of an Archerfish that's shooting water from its mouth, and the third one being dark murky green with the image of a swimming Japanese Sturgeon facing left. "Help yourself!" Casey said as Edge loaded the three medals into his driver and ran the O scanner over them.
Pirania (Piranha)! Teppōuo (Archerfish)! Chōzame (Sturgeon)! (*~Upbeat Rock Music!~*) ~Piranteppozame! Piranteppozame! Piran! Teppo! Zame!~ (*River Rapids Rushing!*)
That's when the images surrounding Edge stopped and showed the symbols of the Piranha, Teppouo, and Chozame Core Medals before they then merged into one symbol and attached itself to Edge's chest to convert his form into a brand new all murky green form that had a Piranha-themed helmet with sharp teeth in the mouthpiece, a pair of metallic Archerfish-shaped gauntlets on his arms, and a pair of leg armor shaped like bodies of Sturgeons, complete with five rows of bony, diamond-shaped scutes (modified ganoid scales) along the length of the leg armor and a pair of Sturgeon head-shaped boots. The name of this new Freshwater Fish-themed combo is Piranteppozame. Edge then aimed his gauntlets at the water, and in a moment that would make a real Archerfish jealous fired two bursts of water that hit Wobbergore and Pristisaw, launching them both out of the water and onto dry land where they proceeded to flop around like the fish out of water they are!
"Hey, no fair! How did you manage to hit us like that?!" Wobbegore asked in confusion. "The Archerfish is one of the most accurate creatures in the world's waters, capable of hitting an insect up to five feet away, apply some human size physics to that, it's not that difficult." Edge said. "Grrr! You'll pay for your meddling, boy!" Wobbegore declared as he jumped forwards and bit onto Edge's left. Unfortunately for Wobbegore, that was a big mistake, since the scutes covering Edge's leg armor were hard enough to shatter his teeth *SHATTER!*. "OWWWWWW! MY TEETH! MY TEETH!" Wobbegore yelled while covering his mouth in pain. "Oh, I get it, the legs on this form are part Sturgeon, so you have armor akin to the scutes on a Sturgeon's body which help serve as protection." Lunastura noted as she and Adelaide healed Jalissa. "You're part Sturgeon, right Lulu? Do you have something cool like that?" Adelaide asked her partner.
"Actually, in addition to the fins and tail, I do actually have the scutes of a Lake Sturgeon as well!" Lunastura answered. Jalissa then groaned as she finished healing. "Jalissa! Are you okay?" Casey asked his girlfriend. "*Groan!* Those two fish managed to effectively ambush me, with that Wobbegong biting my right leg while that Sawfish came out of the sand and slashed me across the stomach with that saw nose of his!" Jalissa complained. "Actually, it's called a Rostrum, with the sharp parts of it actually being teeth, which in turn are completely different from the many rows of much smaller teeth within a Sawfish's mouth! Sawfish tend to use these to both stir up the bottom to find prey, mainly smaller fish, molluscs and crustaceans, and to slash at groups of fish in self defense! Fun fact, though, Sawfish are usually docile and harmless to humans, except when captured in nets, where they can inflict serious injuries when defending themselves with their Rostrum, kind of like with what just happened to you, Jalissa!" Lisa informed. "Luckily for you, Casey was able to rescue you and Adelaide was able to heal you." David said. "Unfortunately, there's no of either option for these two!" Edge said. "Oh yeah? We'll see about that!" Pristisaw said as he charged towards Edge with his Rostrum forwards. Unfortunately for the Largetooth Sawfish Animarius, not only did Edge quickly dodge him, but, as the Piranha symbol on his chest glowed, causing his Piranha head to glow as well and open its toothy mouth plate, the Reborn Kamen went and bit onto Pristisaw's Rostrum before tearing it off completely. "*SHRIEK!* MY ROSTRUM! MY BEAUTIFUL ROSTRUM!" Pristisaw yelled in anguish and pain. While Pristisaw was crying in agony, Edge kicked him into Wobbergore before running the O Scanner over his driver.
Scanning Charge!
That caused Edge to summon the symbols of his Freshwater Fish Core Medals, which in turn unleashed three watery constructs, specifically those of a Red-Bellied Piranha, an Archerfish, and a Japanese Sturgeon, that swam in the air and attacked Pristisaw and Wobbegore one-by-one before circling around them, preventing the two fish Animarius from escaping. Then, as Edge charged up his Teppouo Shooters (the Archerfish-shaped gauntlets on his arms), he announced "Piranteppozame Stream!" before he unleashed a pair of extremely high pressured torrential murky green glowing streams of river water at the fish Animarius duo. Because of the extremely strong water pressure, Pristisaw and Wobbegore yelled in agony and shouted "WE'VE BEEN FLASH FLOODED!", right before Edge shouted "SEIYA!" as the Fish Army duo both exploded and reverted into Soul Cores with the images of a Largetooth Sawfish and a Tasselled Wobbegong.
"Nice! Who made that guardian, though?" Casey asked. "That would be our Great, Great, Grandfather Antoine, who studies Freshwater Fish!" Aden said. "He was especially interested in how the Archerfish hunted." Azalee said as Aden tossed the Soul Cores to Lincoln. "Wow, your people are seriously afraid of these guys? They don't seem to be standing a chance against us!" Lincoln told Makros as he slammed another fist into Boxaroo's face. "I'm guessing that they never encountered anything like you guys!" Makros noted. "And I can't imagine Bunyipus being too happy about any of this." He added.
Meanwhile...
Master Toadus, as well as Gorf and Bufoam, were fighting against Corroboris. "I don't understand! Why did you people betray us?" Corroboris asked in confusion. "Same reason as Brachios, I was selflessly saved by a human, and I wanted to repay him, so I took the power amplifier Aquilis made and helped him seal Drako and his cronies away in a tablet!" Toadus explained. "Power Amplifier?" Corroboris asked in confusion. "Well we call it a driver now, and Lincoln over there uses it to fight." Gorf said, pointing to Lincoln as he sealed Wobbergore and Pristisaw. That made Corroboris rather unhappy. "It doesn't have to be this way, Corroborris, the humans have been able to accept us when we defected, you can join our side, and use your powers to help overthrow King Draco!" Gorf said. "Are you kidding me?! After all the years of killing people with my acidic poison mist during the Empire's reign of intergalactic conquest, you expect me of all Animarius to suddenly just defect just like that?! I can't do that! I've got too much blood on my hands! Plus, everyone knows that the punishment for defection is execution!" Corroboris said. "And Terriblis is especially hard on that." He added.
"Seriously, he's still incredibly mad at you, Bufoam, for turning on him!" Corroboris said while pointing at Bufoam. "And he's also threatening to have me destroyed and my Soul Core shattered if I even dare to defect!" Corroboris said in fright. Gorf tightened his grip on his katana in anger at the mention of his brother's ways. "That no good brother of mine has obviously become far more heinous since he became General!" Gorf said angrily. "How nice of you to notice!" A voice called as everyone turned to see Terriblis. "General Terriblis!" Corroboris said. Terriblis then impaled Corroboris with his spear. "AGH! General, why? I didn't even defect!" Corroboris asked in pain. "Better safe than sorry, Bufoam is living proof of how persuasive these traitors can be!" Terriblis said before several projectiles hit him in the back. "You give Poison Dart Frogs a bad name!" Diohuerus said as his Porcupinefish spikes rested after having launched some at Terriblis.
"How dare you?! Just who do you think you are to attack me like that?!" Terriblis asked Diohureus in pain and anger. "I'm known as Diohureus, the Alebrije of Poison!" Diohureus said. "And you may think of yourself as some great general, but you're nothing but a coward!" He declared. "Grrr! Nobody calls me a coward and lives!" Terriblis declared angrily, only to start feeling weak suddenly. "What's happening? What did you do to me?" Terriblis asked weakly. "Oh, in addition to being 1/3 Blue Poison Dart Frog, I'm also 1/3 Hooded Pitohui, which is a species of poisonous bird, and 1/3 Long-Spined Porcupinefish, which is a Pufferfish relative!" Diohureus explained. "Speaking of the latter, what I just attacked with are Porcupinefish spines, which contains Tetrodotoxin, a very deadly poison that even you clearly aren't immune to!" He added. "Symptoms of exposure to this type of poison include headaches, diaphoresis or sweating to an unusual degree, body numbness, dysarthria or difficult or unclear articulation of speech, dysphagia or difficulty swallowing, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, general malaise, weakness, and lack of coordination." He explained as Terriblis proceeded to demonstrate each symptom!
From the Animarius Empire Castle, the entire Pantheon saw was going on. "Uh Oh! One of us better get Terriblis back here and into a Healing Pod before he fully succumbs to that Porcupinefish poison!" Goliathus said. "And prepare the Enlargement Ray for Boxaroo, he might need it." King Draco said. "Good Idea, Your Majesty!" Cicadeath and Flygor said as they off to where the Enlargement Raygun is located. Before Cerberion teleported to Terriblis. "Consider yourselves lucky!" He said before teleporting back to the castle. "Who was that?!" Makros asked in confusion. "Cerberion, a Cerberus Animarius and the bane of my existence, he's the one who killed my parents, older brother, and unborn baby brother and sister!" Sakura explained through tears. "Woah, seriously? I knew Hell's Watchdog was vicious, but to kill two unborns? That's hilarious!" Boxaroo said.
That made Sakura cry loudly. "Hey!" Lincoln called, catching Boxaroo's attention. "No one makes my girl cry!" He said before slamming a fist into the Kangaroo Animarius' face. "Ow! Why you little bugger!" Boxaroo said angrily as he then delivered a hard uppercut at Lincoln. This sent the rider falling. "I'm okay!" He said.
Meanwhile...
Sameer, Nikki, Laird, Aquene, Cianán, CJ, Carl, Yui, Fuka, Desco, Alraunellie, and Panopticon were facing off against Yara-max and Kinie-growl. "I can't believe you actually betrayed us, Panopticon!" Yara-max said in anger. "Yeah! What the hell is wrong with you?!" Kinie-growl asked angrily. "I fell in love, plain and simple!" Panopticon said. "So did I!" Alraunellie said. "Seriously? One of you fell in love with a teenage human female while the other one you fell in love with whatever that weird thing is?!" Yara-max asked while pointing at Desco, much to the latter's annoyance. "Sic 'em, OctoRabbit!" Desco ordered her companion. The Octorabbit then charged towards the two Pecadiablos. However, Yara-max went and jumped above the Octorabbit with his bare hands before latching onto its back with the suckers on his fingers and feet and then used said suckers to start draining the blood from the Octorabbit, much to the creature's agony and Desco's horror. Seeing her lover in fear made something in Alraunellie snap as pollen was suddenly released from the Mandrake Flowers on her head and onto Yara-max and Kinie-growl.
"Oh, Yuck! Pollen?!" Kinie-growl asked in disgust. Before he and Yara-max started feeling strange, with Yara-max getting off Octorabbit, who immediately jumped into Desco's arms. "Octorabbit!" Desco said in relief as she hugged the creature. "The mean man didn't hurt you too badly, did he?" Desco asked. The Octorabbit made some cooing noises in response to the that. Before hugging Nellie out of appreciation for the save. "Desco thinks he's saying 'thank you'." Desco said with a chuckle. "Uh, you're welcome!" Alraunellie said. "But, what did I just do?" She asked in confusion. "Plant based Pecadiablos are able to produce different types of magic pollen that have different effects on their enemies, depending on the type of flower that decorate their bodies." Panopticon explained. "Mine are Mandrake Flowers, but, what kind of effect do they have?" Alraunellie asked. "Well..." Panopticon said as they all turned to see Yara-max and Kine-growl.
The two evil Pecadiablos both turned purple as they were feeling dizzy and nauseous, with purple bubbles floating around them. "Considering that Mandrake flowers are known to be poisonous, I think your pollen gave those two a poisoning effect!" Panopticon said. "Fascinating!" Lisa said as she and David collected some of the pollen for further study. "And here Desco was thinking you couldn't get any better!" Desco told Alraunellie before kissing her on the cheek. That made Alraunellie blush a bit. Suddenly, both Yara-max and Kinie-growl started throwing up, though the former let out a lot more vomit than the latter "BLEEEEEEEEGH!". "Ew." Nikki said. "Let's just end these two and get the giant battle over with." Sameer suggested. "Uh, guys, I don't mean to be an alarmist, but, wasn't there an Insect Animarius amongst the Animarius soldiers from Straya, because I don't see him anywhere!" Laird said upon noticing that Burrowroach was nowhere to be seen. "He's right!" Aquene said.
Meanwhile...
"Should be around here somewhere!" Burrowroach said, carrying a map. As he was doing so, he was digging underground. Soon, he found himself in the Kamen Riders' base! "Yes! General Goliathus, I found their base!" Burrowroach said over a walkie talkie. "Good work, Burrowroach! Now, plant the bomb somewhere, activate the timer, and then get out of there quickly before the countdown ends!" Goliathus through the walkie-talkie. "You got it, General!" Burrowroach said as he then pulled out an explosive, which looks like a cross between an old-school cartoon bomb and a detonation charge, and planted it on a nearby computer system before pressing a button that started the countdown from 5 minutes. "Good luck recovering from this, riders!" Burrowroach said before turning and yelping in fright as Mecha Pollon growled at him. "Uh... Nice Doggy?" Burrowroach said nervously. "Mecha Pollon!" Lincoln's voice called, catching the robot dog's attention. *Bark, bark, bark, bark!* Mecha Pollon said as if saying 'Consider yourself lucky!' Before flying off to the battlefield, allowing Burrowroach to breath a sigh of relief, only for the Whale Change Gun wielded by AkaRed in ZyuohWhale form to greet his face. "Hello." AkaRed said, pulling the trigger.
Zyuoh Final!
"And goodbye!" He said as the gun fired. "Oh, Sugar Honey Iced Tea!" Was all that Burrowroach could say before the blast sent him flying back through his tunnel, all the way back to the battlefield. "This idiot tried planting a bomb in the base." AkaRed said as he teleported to the field with said bomb in tow. All of the heroes gasped in shock at that. "Yeah." AkaRed said before placing the bomb in Burrowroach's hands just as it was about to go off. "Uh oh." Burrowroach said as the bomb exploded, taking him with it. That caused Burrowroach to be reverted into a Soul Core with the image of a Giant Burrowing Cockroach on it. "Fascinating! That Animarius was based on the Macropanesthia rhinoceros, commonly known as the Giant Burrowing Cockroach a.k.a. Rhinoceros Cockroach or Queensland Giant Cockroach, mainly because of its burrowing habits and the presence of a scoop-like structure on the pronotum, a prominent plate-like structure that covers the first segment of the thorax!" Lisa said as she and David picked up the Soul Core. "Fun fact, unlike some other cockroaches, the Giant Burrowing Cockroach does not have wings and is not considered a pest, since this species plays a vital part in the ecosystem by consuming dead leaves, eucalyptus in particular, and recycling other matter! They may burrow down in soil to a depth of about 1 m, or 3 ft 3 in, where they make permanent homes and feed on collected dry leaf litter! In fact, the giant burrowing cockroach is the only cockroach in the world known to have permanent burrows in the soil, which is considered a good thing since the species play an important ecological role in that it contributes to the recycling of nutrients in the wild! Plus, this species of cockroach is popular in Brisbane and is frequently sold as a pet!" David informed, much to the disgust of Sakura.
"EWWWW!" Sakura exclaimed in disgust. "Yeah, I don't understand it either." Lisa said as Yara-max and Kinie-growl got up and groaned before noticing that the Kamen Riders and Lucharangers were aiming the Trinity Buster and Super LuchaBuster at them. "Oh Crikey!" The two evil Pecadiablos exclaimed in fright. Before Lincoln and Ronnie Anne pulled the triggers, firing the team cannons, obliterating them. "Whoa!" Makros said while impressed. "It's not over yet!" Ronnie Anne said as both Pecadiablos grew. "Fire the enlargement ray!" King Draco ordered. "Yes, your Majesty!" Cicadeath and Flygor said as they fired the Enlargement Raygun at not only Boxaroo, but also Thornoloch and Megalanox, causing the three Animarius to grow into giants. "What the?" Makros asked in confusion. "Ooh, right, we forgot to mention that the Animarius Empire has developed a new weapon called the Enlargement Raygun, which, as you can clearly see, allows any Animarius Soldier to become giant-sized versions of themselves upon getting hit by its rays!" Gorf said. "Also, we neglected to mention that when a Pecadiablo gets destroyed once, they immediately return to life as giants themselves!" Lisa said. "Fortunately, we happen to have a way to combat that, to the Vectors!" Lincoln said as he, Sakura, and Clyde rushed over to the Vectors.
"We'll go up in LuchaKing, Makros, time to find out what you and Kangan can do here! Alebrije Henkei!" Ronnie Anne, Sid, Casey, Nikki, Sameer, and Laird called, taking on their mech forms. Makros was very surprised at that! "The need to fight giant enemies comes with the Super Sentai title, just repeat what they just said." AkaRed instructed. "Right! Alebrije Henkei!" Makros called.
Transformation Sequence
Makros was back in the wrestling ring that's formed in his morphing sequence as crimson-colored Galaxies, stars, and comets surrounded him. Then, his body became metallic, two pairs of Meganeura wings sprouted from his back, a pair of American Lobster claws sprouted from his shoulders, eight American Lobster legs sprouted from his sides, his arms, legs, and tail became metallic, with the arms and legs turning into Red Kangaroo arms and legs while the tail gained an American Lobster's armor and tail fan, as he grew and made a growling noise as he transformed into the Kanganeurobster Mech. "This certainly is unexpected." Makros said. "You get used to it. Alebrije Gattai!" Ronnie Anne called as she, Sid, Casey, Sameer, Nikki, and Laird combined. "LuchaKing, awaken!" They called. "Now you call 'Alebrije Busou'!" AkaRed instructed Makros. "What exactly does that mean?" Makros and Kanganeurobster asked in confusion. "It means 'Armament'! We just say Busou because Super Sentai are traditionally Japanese!" AkaRed explained.
"Okay, seriously, how many different languages does this planet have? We Gurrugans only have two languages, specifically Gurrugan Tongue, which is our original language, and Common Tongue, which is what we use to talk to other sentient races across the galaxy and also the language that I'm speaking right now!" Macros said. "Officially, there are 7,139 different languages spoken in the 195 countries and by the over 7 billion people that call Earth home." Lisa explained. "That many people?!" Makros asked in shock. "And that doesn't even count the countless non human species, over 1,000,000 of which are Insects alone!" David said. "Okay, seriously, isn't 7 billion people considered a bit too much, population wise?" Makros asked. "Believe us, compared to the rest of Earth's problems, population size is only a minor issue." Lisa said. "I honestly don't understand why King Draco and the Pecadiablos are even trying to take over the planet, it has way too many issues to list!" David said in agreement.
"What issues?" Makros asked in confusion. "Well let's see, the Polar Ice Caps are melting, we're recovering from a global pandemic, wildfires are popping up all over the place, and there's substantial evidence suggesting humanity is doomed as a species, just to name a few." Lisa explained. That made Makros rather scared. "Yes, but for some reason these nutjobs want to rule over our planet." David said. "Well either way, Alebrije Busou!" Makros called. At that moment, the Kanganeurobster Mech flew towards LuchaKing and started to transform. First, he folded his kangaroo arms into his chest, right before the latter separated from the rest of his body and then split itself vertically in two halves that became metallic boxing gloves that attached themselves to LuchaKing's fists. Next, the Kanganeurobster Mech's kangaroo legs straightened themselves forwards, right before the feet detached themselves from the legs and then attached themselves to the bottom of LuchaKing's feet. Then, a pair of cannons flipped out from the Kanganeurobster Mech's kangaroo thighs and attached themselves in front of the kangaroo legs, becoming the hip cannons, while the American Lobster claws straightened themselves forwards and popped out high-tech blaster rifles from between the claws, becoming the shoulder cannons. Then, as the Kanganeurobster Mech's eight lobster legs straightened themselves outwards and a pair of jet thrusters popped out from the rear end at each side of the base of the tail, the fully transformed Kanganeurobster Mech attached itself to the back of LuchaKing, becoming a high-tech jetpack with hip and shoulder cannons. Finally, as LuchaKing flew around with its new arsenal, Makros announced "LUCHAKING! SPACE FIGHTER!" while the Mecha did a dramatic pose.
Makros was then teleported into the cockpit. "Welcome aboard, Makros, just follow our lead, and you'll get the hang of it in no time!" Ronnie Anne told the new Lucharanger. "Okay, if you say so!" Makros said. Aquarion Anansi, as well as LuchaKaiser and LuchaWild, armed with the Lucky Buzzsaw, Venom Claws, and Spirit Crossbow appeared next to LuchaKing as both sides sized up the other. "Skyring, descend!" Ronnie Anne called, summoning the battle arena. "Is that a stadium in the sky?!" Boxaroo asked in surprise. "The Skyring, we use it to prevent collateral damage. Plus it looks cool and fits our Luchador motif." Ronnie Anne explained. "Uh, but how do you expect us to go up there? I can't fly!" Boxaroo said. "Me neither!" Thornoloch said. "Neither do I!" Megalanox said. "There's a teleportation feature onboard for those who can't fly." Sid explained as the four mechas started flying. "Follow us if you dare!" Ronnie Anne said.
"Fortunately for us, we have wings!" Yara-max said as he and Kinie-growl spread out their bat-like wings and flew up to the Sky Ring. While the three Animarius were beamed onboard. "Well, that felt trippy!" Thornoloch noted. "You should try being onboard a Vector while Aquarion is being formed, the first time is indescribable, but you get used to it over time." Sakura said. "Enough talk! Let's fight!" Megalanox said as he charged towards LuchaWild before biting onto the Mecha's left thigh hard, resulting in Ricky and Aurastrolumba to yell in pain. "Ricky! Oh, you're going to pay for that, punk!" Becky said. She then had LuchaWild shoot at Megalanox with the Spirit Bowgun, forcing the Megalania Animarius to let go. "You alright, bro?" Becky asked Ricky. "*Groan!* That bite of his hurts so much, I think I might be bleeding!" Ricky complained in pain. "You might want to get that checked out, Ricky, like it's modern day descendant the Komodo Dragon, the Megalania is believed to have hunted using venom!" Lisa said. That made Ricky gasp in fright.
"Don't worry, little dude! Just swap out with us and let Carlota handle anything on that front!" Par said as he and Bobby flew in. "Yeah, I'm afraid that's literally impossible for Ricky to swap out, Par, since the leg modes of you and Bobby's mech forms are specifically designed for LuchaKing only, plus Ricky's mech form consists of not just the legs, but also the chestplate, tattling gun, lower wings, and groin area, so I'm afraid your mech forms are incompatible with LuchaWild in their leg modes!" AkaRed informed through the comm link. "Dang It!" Par and Bobby complained. "Don't worry, Ricky! I've got a quicker way to remove that venom!" Carlota said as LuchaKaiser, armed with the Venom Claws, went over to LuchaWild's side and used the Venom Claws to literally drain Megalanox's venom from the wound on LuchaWild's left thigh.
"And now..." Carlota said, mixing in her own venom and a little bit of Platypulp's she had left over. "We return to sender!" She said, tossing the venom straight into Megalanox's mouth! That caused Megalanox to unintentionally swallow the venom and that made him incredibly sick. "Nice one, Carlota!" Carl said. "Ha! It was nothing!" Carlota said. "Thanks, but would someone please heal me? I think I'm bleeding in left thigh!" Ricky said. "Uh, Ricky, you really are bleeding there!" Dodge said as she saw blood coming from the bite wound on Ricky's left thigh, making Ricky gasp in fright. "Oh, dear! Adelaide, better use your Healing Moon, quickly!" Aya said. "On it." Adelaide said as LuchaKaiser touched the blade of it's Lunastura sword on LuchaWild's thigh. Adelaide then announced "Healing Moon!" as LuchaKaiser used the signature technique to heal the damage on LuchaWild's left thigh, which also caused Ricky's left thigh to heal as well. "Thanks, Adelaide, now I'm mad!" Ricky said as everyone glared at Megalanox.
"Oh, Bollocks!" Megalanox said as he was weaken from the venom and in big trouble. "Eclipse X Slash!/Wild Dodgeball Smash!" They all called, unleashing their finishers on the Megalania Animarius. "I'VE JUST GONE EXTINCT!" Megalanox yelled before he exploded and reverted into a Soul Core with the image of a Megalania on it. Which Lincoln then beamed onboard his cockpit. "Dang, this is one ugly lizard." He said. "Just be glad that it's an extinct lizard species, because if it were alive today, it would most likely be incredibly dangerous towards us, as it would probably see us humans as in-between-meal snacks!" Lisa said through the comm link. Lincoln shuddered at that before sealing the Soul Core.
Meanwhile...
"And that's the gist of it." Aquilis explained to a stunned Butcherbeak and Emudash. "All this time, King Draco was really a reincarnated villain from another universe?" Butcherbeak asked in shock. "Indeed." Tytus said. "And you guys are planning on...that?" Emudash asked nervously. "All it takes is a push of a button." Tytus confirmed, pulling out the trigger. "Is it some sort of bomb?!" Butcherbeak asked in fright. "Not quite!" Falkyrie said. "It's a little surprise I'm programming into the Neo-Lizardons as well as Cicadeath and Flygor's arms and Ophiucus' tail." Aquilis explained. "Only question is, now that you know, what will you do? Will you swear secrecy and help us, or am I going to have to erase this conversation from your minds?" Aquilis asked, holding the Hummingbird drone in her hands. "If it means making up for all of the horrible things I have done under the Empire's rule, then count me in!" Butcherbeak answered. "Same goes for me! I never really wanted to be evil, but I was never given a choice, given what King Draco does to those who disobey him!" Emudash said. "Excellent!" Aquilis said.
Meanwhile...
As the battle was going on up in the Sky Ring, Master Toadus, Gorf, and Bufoam were attending to a critically wounded Corroboris. "Why? Why are you doing this?" Corroboris asked in confusion. "Because it's the right thing to do, especially since Terriblis is the one that obviously stabbed you in the back, literally speaking!" Toadus said. "It doesn't matter, I can feel myself losing consciousness, and without access to the Tree of Life, I'm better off sealed." Corroboris said. "There may be one way." Electraginconia said as she and Euryzinophis appeared. "And who are you two?" Corroboris asked in confusion. "I'm Electraginconia, the Alebrije of life, and this is my boyfriend Euryzinophis, the Alebrije of death." Electraginconia explained. "Hello!" Euryzinophis said. "Together, we have the ability to revive a soul, and since Soul Cores are like that, we have a theory that our power might do the same." Electraginconia explained.
That took Corroboris by surprise. "Do you really think you can?" Bufoam asked. "It's a theory, but we believe it can work!" Euryzinophis said. Suddenly, with a flash of light, Corroboris was gone, leaving behind a Soul Core. "Oh Dear!" Gorf said. "This is as good a time as ever to test your theory." Toadus told the two Alebrije who nodded. Then, the two Alebrijes went and breathed in and exhaled some glowing particles, which then mixed in with each other before they then sprinkled themselves all over Corroboris's Soul Core. Astonishingly, Corroboris was soon back and fully healed! "*GASP!* I'm... Alive?!" Corroboris asked in shock upon realizing he's been revived. "You're welcome!" Electraginconia said. "Corroboris, you can't go back to the Empire, chances are, they will make sure you don't get revived, I recommend either coming with us, or going to the cave at the shrine Brachios has spent the last 5,000 years hiding out in." Toadus said. "I think I'll hide out in that cave, thank you." Corroboris said. "So be it." Lisa said, setting her teleporter to said location and pushing the button.
At that moment, a portal opened up to show the temple, where Brachios and Savannara are already kissing each other. Before they noticed the portal. "Apologies for ruining your moment, but we have another one." Lisa said, gesturing to Corroboris. "Corroboris?!" Savannara asked in fright. "It's okay, Savannara, Corroboris has expressed a desire to make up for his past misdeeds after Terriblis backstabbed him...literally." Gorf explained. That made both Brachios and Savannara gasp in shock. "Yeah, my no-good brother has become far more heinous than usual!" Gorf said bitterly. "Well if you're willing to speak for him, I'll talk to Kadogawa-sama about getting him an assistant job at the shrine and a disguise of his own. It might also be a good idea for you to undergo the process of Misogi, granted you can withstand it." Brachios said. "Misogi? What's that?" Corroboris asked in confusion. "An ancient Shinto ritual where you stand under a waterfall and let it's waters crash onto your body, supposedly cleansing you physically, spiritually, and mentally." Lisa explained.
"An ancient Shinto ritual where you stand under a waterfall and let it's waters crash onto your body, supposedly cleansing you physically, spiritually, and mentally." Lisa explained. "And men traditionally only wear a small undergarment called a fundoshi." Lisa explained. "If that's what it takes." Corroboris decided, walking through the portal. "Good luck." Gorf said as the portal closed.
Meanwhile...
Back at the Sky Ring, as everyone was fighting, the three Dark Vectors started appearing, much to Clyde's chagrin. "Seriously?! You guys?!" Clyde asked in frustration. "Hey, you didn't think we aren't going to give Dark Aquarion another go after the last time we've used it, did you?" Armadeiras asked before laughing. "Dark Aquarion?" Makros asked in confusion. "Unfortunately." Ronnie Anne said. "Long story short, the blueprints for the Vectors and Aquarion got stolen by a mad scientist named Doctor Malignus, who allied himself with the Animarius Empire and used the blueprints to create his own giant robot called Malignion, though we managed to defeat him and destroy said robot, and, later, the blueprints were used to create these Dark Vectors, piloted by the Dark Riders, as you see here!" Lincoln explained. "Have these people got no shame?" Makros asked. "Sadly shame appears to not exist for a lot of villains the Kamen Riders and Super Sentai have faced." AkaRed noted.
"Of, the only exceptions would be those who decide to reform and turn to the side of good!" He added. "But it's pretty rare." AkaRed said. "Yeah, Yeah! Whatever! Anyway, Clyde, since you and your friends are using Aquarion Anansi here, we'll be using the Armadeiras formation as the perfect counter! Now, Jaakuna Gattai! Go, Dark Aquarion!" Shibogumon called.
(Cue "Villain Invasion", an OST by Yuki Hayashi for the anime "My Hero Academia"!)
As soon as he said that, the Dark Vectors shot up to the sky in a triangular formation, with Dark Vector Armadeiras in the lead. First, just like with Vector Anansi when transformed for the Anansi formation, Dark Vector Armadeiras's front leg parts spread away from each other and twisted down while the spider leg-structures on its sides went upward and extended to become much longer spider legs. Next, Dark Vector Weather had its entire front section split itself in halves and went downwards underneath its main body before extending those halves flipping out blades to become spider legs with turret guns on the tips while it's wing flaps folded in themselves. Lastly, Dark Vector Mortem had its sides and twin 'tails' separate and extend away from the main body to reveal robotic upper legs, which then moved downwards while the sides twisted forwards to become the lower legs. At the same time, Dark Vector Mortem's back thruster moved downwards a bit while a part of the back section moved upwards to form the midsection and the front hull moved downwards a bit to form the crotchplate. Then, the three transformed Dark Vectors finally started combining. First, the transformed Dark Vector Mortem merged underneath the transformed Dark Vector Armadeiras while the pieces on the lower legs that were Dark Vector Mortem's twin 'tails' flipped upwards and unfolded heels underneath them to form the feet. Next, the transformed Dark Vector Weather connected to the back to form the lower spider legs and jetpack while the spider abdomen-like rear of Dark Vector Armadeiras covered over it. Then, just like Vector Anansi, Dark Vector Armadeiras's front spider leg-like parts started to form arms by opening up the upper parts to form shoulder blades while robotic hands clawed fingertips flipped out from underneath the lower parts while end parts look like arm blades. After that, the top part of Dark Vector Armadeiras's front popped up to reveal the head, which highly resembled a Mecha version of Kamen Rider Armadeiras's head, purple spider eyes and all. When the combination was completed, the new evil Mecha did a few menacing poses with its spider legs out. Then, the evil mecha finished by striking a villainous predatory pose, similar to Venom from Marvel Comics, while Shibogumon announced "DARK AQUARION! ARMADEIRAS!" and then laughed maniacally.
"And as a little extra fun!" Futaba's voice came out as a Cherubim Soldier, which was mostly orange with black accents and had arms ending in chainsaws set in the middle of its clawed hands and having one extra chainsaw in the middle of the forehead, which in turn had a mouth full of razor-sharp teeth, appeared. "Yeah, Lenshi got really creative with this one." Futaba said with a chuckle. "What is that thing?!" Makros asked in shock. "A Cherubim soldier, a soldier of the Shadow Angels." Sakura explained. "Yeah, my own Dark Vector is still in the works for the time being, so I'm piloting this new model of Cherubim Soldier instead!" Futaba said as he was in the Cherubim Soldier's cockpit, located in the green jewel in the center of its torso. "But you should be glad I'm not Moroha, he was ruthless in his own personal Cherubim!" Futaba said with a chuckle. "Who?" Makros asked in confusion. "The Warrior Angel Moroha! Apparently, from what we were told by our allies from Neo-DEAVA, he's described as the only Shadow Angel with an Insectoid appearance, and really enjoys fighting!" Lincoln explained.
"That's him, and like I said, he is ruthless, but you'll have to settle for me instead at the moment!" Futaba said, making his Cherubim swing a chainsaw arm at Aquarion, only for them to summon the Aquarion Shield. That allowed Aquarion Anansi to instantly block that attack. "This complicates things!" Clyde said.
Meanwhile...
LuchaKing, in its Space Fighter mode, was having a one-on-one boxing match against Boxaroo. So far, they were evenly matched. "You are really persistent, you know that?" Boxaroo said. "I get it from my father!" Makros said. "Would now be a good time to mention that the Space Fighter can also borrow powers from the other Lucharangers?" AkaRed asked over the comm link. "Huh? Seriously? How?" Ronnie Anne asked in confusion. "Well for example, if you focus your lightning powers into the Space Fighter's fists, you can deliver an electrifying surprise to your opponent." AkaRed explained. "You don't say?" Ronnie Anne asked slyly. Before doing as instructed, and soon electricity covered the space fighter's fists before, in a flurry of punches, LuchaKing repeatedly struck and electrocuted Boxaroo. "YEEEEEEEOW!" Boxaroo yelled in pain as his skeleton was briefly seen while he was electrocuted. "The auxiliary Lucharangers can also infuse some of their power." AkaRed said. "Let me try!" Bobby said as he flew behind LuchaKing and infused some of his power, allowing the fists to glow a bronze color before LuchaKing slammed a fist into Boxaroo's chest so hard, when the mecha pulled back, Boxaroo's Soul Core fell to the ground in a thousand tiny pieces!
"*Groan!* Well, played, mates! You got me by a knockout punch!" Boxaroo said weakly before exploding and reverting into a Soul Core with the image of a hopping Red Kangaroo on it. Thornoloch saw this and said nervously "Uh, I surrender?" He pleaded, only for Futaba to see this and strike Thornoloch down where he stood. "Weak." The Shadow Angel said as Thornoloch exploded. That caused Thornoloch to revert to a Soul Core with the image of a Thorny Devil lizard on it. Everyone gasped in shock and appall at that act, especially Makros. "Why did you do that?! Isn't he supposed to be on your side?!" Makros asked in appall. "He surrendered, there's no room in this empire for cowards who surrender in battle!" Futaba scoffed. "If anyone is a coward, it's you, Futaba!" Sakura said angrily, striking a nerve at Futaba. "Excuse Me?!" Futaba asked in outrage. "You heard me! All you Shadow Angels are cowards! You killed humans for no good reason other than your own enjoyment! At least Apollonius had the decency to want to make up for his past misdeeds, and how did your kind repay that decency?" Sakura said angrily.
"By branding him a traitor and trying to kill his human lover Celiane, only for him to tear his wings off from the wall he was pinned onto in order to save her!" She added. "You have to understand something about our two species, Jewel, Shadow Angels are superior, humans like Celiane are inferior, so the fact that Apollonius chose a human over his own kind didn't sit too well with us!" Futaba said. "Furthermore, only use we Shadow Angels had for those humans was to have them absorbed into our Tree of Life, so that their Prana a.k.a. their life force, can be used to fuel it!" He added. "It's not our fault that not only Apollonius but Touma forgot that!" Futaba said with a scoff. "You forgot about Pollon!" Sakura reminded. "Him too!" Futaba said. As this was going on Yara-max and Kinie-growl were facing off against LuchaKaiser and LuchaWild. "Let's see how you fare against my spear!" Kinie-growl declared as he rushed towards LuchaKaiser so fast that he appears to be a blurr, right before he successfully pierced LuchaKaiser through its stomach region, causing Carl and Magnifalcougar to scream in pain. "Carl-kun!" Yui said in fright upon seeing that via Lisa and David's telescope.
"Oh, I wish I could do something to help them! Why did I only have a dream about a shockwave instead of being hit by the wave itself?!" Yui asked in frustration. "Fortunately, I just brought in some backup!" AkaRed said. (A Last Minute Decision Courtesy Of Hallucigenia77) As he said that, five individuals appeared through a portal. They were none other than Jin, Dai, Bun, Tokimura Sara, and Lou, collectively known as the Choushinsei Flashman! "Whoa! Who are you guys?" Subaru said in astonishment. "Allow us to answer like this! Prism Flash!" Jin said as he crossed his arms with the signature transformation bracelet Prism Flash. "Okay! Prism Flash!" The other four said as they did the same thing. At that moment, as soon as their suits were formed, the five shouted "Shut Goggle!" to close the visors on the helmets, completing their transformation.
"Red Flash!"
"Green Flash!"
"Blue Flash!"
"Yellow Flash!"
"Pink Flash!"
"Choushinsei!" Jin said. "Flashman!" They all called out with a dramatic pose. "Choushinsei?" Lori asked in confusion. "Supernova." David translated. "Although if I remember correctly, you said something about this team having to be wary about the 'Anti Flash Phenomenon'." Lisa noted. "Yeah, funny story about that." Dai said. "One we have no time for right now!" AkaRed said. "He's right, we'll talk about that later!" Bun said. "We've already arranged for the components of the Flash King and Great Titan to come here." Jin said. As he said that, the Flashman's mobile base, the Round Base, and the tractor-trailer-like backup mech Great Titan appeared through a much larger portal. As he said that, the Flashman's mobile base, the Round Base, and the tractor-trailer-like backup mech Flash Titan appeared through a much larger portal. "Star Condor, Hasshin!" The Flashman called out as the Round Base opened up its front hatch to release the Flashman's flying fortress/carrier mech Star Condor, which spread out its wings and flew out. Afterwards, it slowly landed near where the Flashman are, allowing them to enter it. Then, the Star Condor opened up its front end to reveal the Tank Command, which Jin immediately piloted. "Tank Command, Hasshin!" Jin announced as the Tank Command rolled out of the Star Condor. After that, the Star Condor opened up a hatch from its back that revealed the Jet Delta and Jet Seeker. "Jet Delta, Hasshin!" Dai and Sara announced within the Jet Delta, which then took off. "Jet Seeker, Hasshin!" Bun and Lou announced within the Jet Seeker, which then also took off. "Wait, there are five of them, but Green and Yellow share a mecha and so do Blue and Pink." David noted. "Yeah, in the early days, multiple Sentai heroes shared a mecha component, no one knows why, though." AkaRed admitted. "So, who's going to drive that big red truck over there?" Lori asked while pointing at the Flash Titan. "I'll do it, since the Flashman are already in their personal Mechs at the moment!" AkaRed said as he then teleported himself into the cockpit of the Flash Titan. "Flash Titan, Hasshin!" AkaRed called. At that moment, the Flash Titan, both the truck and the trailer, folded its wheels underneath itself and then popped out a pair of jet wings before it and Tank Command flew up into the air.
"Hey Yui, you said you had a dream about a Shockwave?" Lori asked. "Yeah, we both did." Subaru said. "That's odd, come to think of it, I had a dream of a shockwave too." Lori admitted. "Now that I think about it, so did I." Denkyem said. "The four of you aren't the only ones! Our friends Emizel and Nagi told us that they both had a dream about a shockwave too!" Fuka said. "Come to think of it, my first night at the O'Rourkes' apartment, I had a dream of a shockwave." Alraunellie admitted. "Same here." Panopticon noted. "As did I." Aoife said. "Same." Lucy said. "Yeah, it was weird." Rocky said. "That's funny, me and Benny also had a shockwave dream!" Luan said. "Yeah, I don't know what to make of it!" Benny said. "Why would we all have that dream?" Lori asked in confusion. "I don't know, but something tells me that this is definitely not a meer coincidence!" Lucy noted.
Back with the others...
As Yara-max and Kinie-growl were laughing at LuchaKaiser's pain, they were interrupted as they were suddenly hit by missiles, courtesy of Tank Command, Jet Delta, Jet Seeker, and Flash Titan. "Gattai! Flash Cross!" Jin called. "Flash Turn! Titan Boy!" AkaRed called. At that moment, the three Flashman Mechs combined into Flash King, with Tank Command becoming the torso, waist , and head, Jet Delta becoming the right arm and left leg, and Jet Seeker becoming the left arm, shield, and left leg. At the same time, the tractor unit of Flash Titan detached itself from the Trailer Unit and then converted into its humanoid robot form known as Titan Boy. "Kansei! Flash King!" The Flashman announced. "Kansei! Titan Boy!" AkaRed announced as the two Mechas entered the Sky Ring. "Nice timing!" Ronnie Anne said. "I am so confused." Makros said. "Yeah, we forgot to mention that there are other Sentai Teams in another universe, and our mentor AkaRed is from that same universe!" Ronnie Anne said. "And boy are there a lot of them." Sid said. "How many exactly?" Makros asked. "Well, there's a total of 47 Sentai teams aside from us, though two of them reside in separate universes of their own, specifically the Kyurangers and Zenkaigers!" Casey explained. "And the King-Ohgers." Nikki said.
"Yeah, about that last one, I did some research with their statues and, it turns out that the King-Ohgers are actually from the main Super Sentai universe, albeit on a completely different planet, rather than in their own separate universe like the Kyurangers and Zenkaigers!" AkaRed informed. "It's complicated, especially since their planet's name is the same as Earth's Japanese one, albeit spelled with a 'T' instead of 'CH'." He admitted. "Best not to think about it too much." AkaRed said. Everyone who understood that simply shrugged their shoulders. "That just makes even more confused!" Makros said. "Just go with it." Ronnie Anne said. "It doesn't matter how many of you there are!" Futaba said, making his Cherubim try to attack Flash King with it's chainsaws. "Cosmo Sword!" Jin called, summoning the mecha's signature weapon. Specifically, it was deployed from the left fender of the Star Condor and then caught by Flash King. Before it countered the Cherubim's attack. "Dang, this thing makes some of Mess' minions look appealing!" Sara joked.
"That, I can agree on!" Lou noted. "Quiet humans!" Futaba demanded. He then made the Cherubim Soldier attack ferociously like a beast. "We're going to need to go all out here, sorry Makros, but we're going to need to go with a different combination here!" Ronnie Anne said. "Understandable." Makros said as the Kanganeurobster mech detached. "Dai Alebrije Gattai!" The Lucharangers called, forming their triple combination mech. "LuchaPrime, awaken!" They called before firing the Prime Blaster at the Cherubim, Dark Aquarion, and two Pecadiablos. "YEOW!" Yara-max and Kinie-growl yelped in pain. "Well since they're going all out, Flash Turn! Great Titan!" AkaRed called. As he said that, the Trailer Unit of Flash Titan stood up and transformed, with the rear of the trailer becoming the legs and the front part revealing the helmet and arms as the wind defector swings out to become the chest. After that, Titan Boy jumped up and slid into the back before the back panel closed up and had its head connected to the helmet, completing the combination of Great Titan. "Kansei! Great Titan!" AkaRed announced.
"Now everyone together!" Ronnie Anne called as the mechas gathered together and glared at the enemies. "Something tells me that we need to leave, otherwise we'll get obliterated!" Stephano said. Futaba growled in anger before sighing knowing Stephano was right before teleporting out of the Cherubim while Dark Aquarion split up before flying back to the castle. "Mou! They got away!" Sara complained. "They'll be back, but for now!" Aurachnid said, climbing on Clyde's leg and biting down.
Spider Break!
That's when golden energy flowed from Clyde's right foot and went straight into Aquarion Anansi's right foot. "Aquarion Spider Kick!" Clyde called. "Prime Victory!" The Lucharangers called. "Super Cosmo Flash!" The Flashman called. "Titan Nova!" AkaRed called as the four mechas unleashed their finishers while the Auxiliary Lucharangers backed them up with energy beams. Soon, the Cherubim as well as Yara-max and Kinie-growl were hit with everything before they all fell to the ground and exploded before Laird tossed the lock into the cloud that is the Pecadiablos' essence. That caused the lock to open its mouth and suck up all of Yara-max and Kinie-growl's essence like a vacuum before closing it's mouth back up letting out a burp in satisfaction. "Why did you do that?" Makros asked in confusion. "Because if we don't, they'll just reform and cause even more trouble!" Ronnie Anne explained. "Mainly because the Pecadiablos are technically immortal!" Sid added. "As you can imagine, it made defeating them really difficult the first time around!" Jaxondor said. "So, what should we do with Thornoloch's Soul Core?" Aurachnid asked upon noticing Thornoloch's Soul Core still on the floor. "I don't know, I was thinking about sealing it away, but, with how Futuba simply just killed him after saying he surrendered, I don't think I should!" Lincoln said, feeling conflicted. "Bring Thornoloch's Soul Core over to us, we have something else in mind!" Master Toadus called out through the comm link. "Okay, if you say so!" Lincoln said as he had Aquarion Anansi beam up the Soul Core into his cockpit.
Meanwhile...
"What do you mean they were all either defeated or defected?!" Bunyippus asked in shock as Futaba reported what happened in the battle. "I told you, these humans are crafty!" Leo said angrily. "Great, just great!" Bunyipus said sarcastically. "Now I have less soldiers on Straya to keep the Gurrugans in line!" He complained. "Yeah, we figured with less soldiers on Straya, those Gurrugans might get suspicious enough to start an uprising, so we decided to send you more soldiers over Straya to replace the defeated or defected ones!" Tyrannis said as he and everyone else stepped back to reveal several more Animarius Soldiers. The first one was a male humanoid Rapator with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder (Rapaton). The second one was a male humanoid Muttaburrasaurus with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder (Muttaburron). The third one was a female humanoid Diamantinasaurus with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on her left shoulder (Diamantina). The fourth one was a male humanoid Thapunngaka (a species of Australian Pterosaur) with large wings on his back and the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder (Thapunngor). The fifth one was a female humanoid Umoonasaurus (a species of plesiosaur) with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on her shoulder (Umoona). The sixth one was a muscular male Prognathodon (a species of Mosasaur) with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder (Prognathos). The seventh one was a male humanoid Mixosaurus (a species of Ichthyosaur) with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder (Mixos). The eighth one was a female Shonisaurus (a much larger species of Ichthyosaur) with the image of the Dinosaur Army on her left shoulder (Shonia). The ninth one was a male humanoid Common Death Adder (a species of venomous snake) with the image of the Reptile Army on his left shoulder (Adderus). The tenth one was a female Wonambi naracoortensis (a species of extinct constrictor snake) with the symbol of the Reptile Army on her left shoulder (Wonamba). The eleventh one was a male humanoid Golden Spiny-Tailed Gecko (species name: Strophurus taenicauda) with the symbol of the Reptile Army on his left shoulder (Strophuron). The twelth one was a male humanoid Quinkana (an extinct long-legged terrestrial crocodilian) with the symbol of the Reptile Army on his left shoulder (Quinkarnos). The thirteenth one was a male Ornate Burrowing Frog with the symbol of the Amphibian Army on his left shoulder (Ornatum). The fourteenth one was a female humanoid Rheobatrachus a.k.a. Gastric Brooding Frog with the symbol of the Amphibian Army on her left shoulder (Rheola). The fifteenth one was a male humanoid Northern Corrobee Frog with the symbol of the Amphibian Army on his left shoulder (Pengilleyus). The sixteenth one was a male humanoid Tusked Frog with the symbol of the Amphibian Army on his left shoulder (Adelotusk). The seventeenth one was a male humanoid Common Archerfish with the symbol of the Fish Army on his left shoulder (Archerstream). The eighteenth one was a male humanoid Flat Needlefish with the symbol of the Fish Army on his left shoulder (Needleflash). The nineteenth one was a male humanoid Striped Marlin with the symbol of the Fish Army on his left shoulder (Marlino). The twentieth one was a male humanoid Australian Angelshark with the symbol of the Fish Army on his left shoulder (Angelsquat). The twenty-first one was a male humanoid Australasian Gannet with wings on his back and the symbol of the Bird Army on his left shoulder (Gannetor). The twenty-second one was a female humanoid Magpie with wings on her back and the symbol of the Bird Army on her left shoulder (Maggiepie). The twenty-third one was a female humanoid Australian Hornet with the symbol of the Insect Army on her left shoulder (Abispana). The twenty-fourth one was a male humanoid Giant Yellow Robber Fly (species name: Blepharotes coriarius) with the symbol of the Insect Army on his left shoulder (Blepharob). The twenty-fifth one was a male humanoid Short-Beaked Echidna with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder (Echidneedle). The twenty-sixth one was a male humanoid Red-Necked Wallaby wearing boxing gloves with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder (Wallabrawl). The twenty-seventh one was a curvaceous female humanoid Grey-Headed Flying Fox (Australia's largest bat) with wings on her back and the symbol of the Mammal Army on her left shoulder (Pteropa). The twenty-eighth one was a male humanoid Thylacoleo carnifex a.k.a. Marsupial Lion with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder (Carnifexion). Lastly, the twenty-ninth and final one was a male humanoid Thylacosmilus atrox (a metatheran Mammal with physical similarities to the Smilodon a.k.a. Sabertooth Cat despite not being a feline) with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder (Atroxmilus). "Whoa! That's a lot more Animarius Soldiers than what I had sent to you all previously!" Bunyippus said in surprise. "Yeah, consider this as extra security! After all, we can't take the chance of having more Gurrugans escape from Straya like what that young one had done!" Leo said. "Very good point!" Bunyippus noted.
"We will also be sending in some Neo-Lizardons, Dustards, and Cherubims." King Draco said as a large army of Neo-Lizardons and Dustards, as well as a few Cherubims armed with different weapons appeared. "Nice! Those will make fine additions to the Lizardons that we already have here on Straya!" Bunyippus said while impressed. "One more thing, one of my Royal Guard just came back to the castle and I decided to have him included in your Straya team!" King Draco said as a humanoid Goanna with six limbs (four arms and two legs) and a frog-like face while having the symbol of the Mythical Army on his left shoulder revealed himself. "Hello, Bunyippus!" The creature said. "Whowius! Hey there! How's it going?!" Bunyippus asked in surprise. "Oh, nothing much! Had a stint with the Aboriginal Australians sometime in the last 5,000 years! I even ate a few of them when I felt hungry enough! I also gotten into a fight with a hairy, fanged, humanoid ape called a Yowie and won! Heck, I almost got eaten by a large theropod dinosaur called a Burrunjor!" The six-limbed reptilian, now identified as Whowius, said. "That reminds me! Here, General Tyrannis! I've managed to obtain a genetic sample of the Burrunjor itself before I managed to get away from it! I hope you can use it to create a new soldier for yourself!" He said as he gave General Tyrannis what appears to be a broken-off sharp tooth from a theropod dinosaur, possibly from either a tyrannosaur or a megaraptorid. "Excellent!" Tyrannus said with a malicious smile.
Cicadeath and Flygor then opened up a portal big enough for all the forces to walk through. "Get going!" King Draco said. "Yes, your majesty!" They all said, walking into the portal, before Aquilis stopped the Magpie Animarius. "You remember what to do, right?" She asked as the Animarius held up a trigger similar to the one Tytus has. "Wait patiently, and when you give the word, give Operation Trade Winds a little test run." She said. "That trigger is specifically for the Neo-Lizardons we're sending to Straya, so no one should get too suspicious." Aquilis said. "And if everyone finds about me pulling the trigger, I'll take the full blame, say that it was all my plan from the get go, and then move in with the heroes so that nobody suspects you!" The Magpie Animarius said. "Excellent, be careful, Maggiepie, we'll join you once the time for the big Operation arises." Aquilis said. "Thank you, General Aquilis!" The Magpie Animarius, identified as Maggiepie, replied quietly. Before joining the rest of the forces through the portal. "Do you really think it will go so smoothly, mother?" Tytus asked nervously. "We can only hope at this point, my darling daughter, but until then, proceed as normal and don't let anyone suspect anything." Aquilis instructed. "Of course, mother." Tytus said.
Meanwhile...
Everyone watched as Electraginconia and Euryzinophis repeated the process from Fuka and Corroboris on Thornoloach, him reviving in seconds. "What the heck? I'm alive? Last I remember is... *Gasp!* Why little Shadow Angel brat! He killed me!" Thornoloch said in realization. "Yeah, he didn't take too kindly to your surrendering." Sakura said regretfully. "Heck, he actually stated that, and I quote, "there's no room in this empire for cowards who surrender in battle!"! Seriously, what a hypocritical jerk!" She added bitterly. "And sorry to tell you this, but King Draco just left your Soul Core behind to be sealed like the others we defeated tonight, the only reason you weren't is because Toadus had Electra and Eury here use their powers to revive you as they did Corroboris." Lincoln explained. "Say What?!" Thornoloch asked in shock. "You're welcome, by the way!" Electraginconia said as Thornoloch thought for a minute. "You know what? Who needs those guys anyway?! Where's Corroboris? I'll just hang out with him from now on!" Thornoloch said. "We sent him to the cave Brachios-san has been hiding out in while serving as an assistant at the shrine my cousin studies at." Sakura explained. "Savannara is there as well." Toadus explained. "Savannara? I was wondering where she went off to!" Thornoloch noted. "If that's where they are, then send me as well!" Thornoloch requested.
Over in Japan...
Corroboris was undergoing the Misogi ritual. "Just like that, Corroboris-san, you can do it!" Akari said as a portal opened up with Thornoloch walking through. "What in the world?! Thornoloch, what are you doing here?!" Corroboris asked in shock. "That Futaba guy killed me because I surrendered to the Kamen Riders, but two of their Alebrije friends brought me back to life, so I decided to defect, and join you guys." Thornoloch explained. "Well in that case, put this on and join Corroboris-san under the waterfall." Hiroshi instructed, handing Thornoloch a loincloth. "Uh, any idea on what the temperature of the water is, because, being a reptile and all, I have low tolerance towards incredibly cold temperatures!" Thornoloch asked nervously. "We'll make sure that won't be a problem once it's all over." Zennsuke assured. "Okay." Thornoloch said.
Back with the others...
"If you kids need anything else, you know how to contact us." Jin said as he and the other Flashman prepared to leave. "Great, thanks!" Lincoln said. "By the way, AkaRed told us that you guys somehow managed to find a way to bypass the risk of the Anti Flash Phenomenon and return to Earth a few times! How exactly did guys did that?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Well you see, after we left Earth, the day after defeating Mess, my Father started working on a way to circumnavigate the Anti Flash Phenomenon, and after a year..." Sara started saying. "He was able to make a deep space communications satellite to contact us, saying that he figured out that the unique energy of the Flash System is actually the source of our problems!" Lou explained. "Specifically, it was the energy from the main planet of the system known as Flash a.k.a. the Red Planet, which is unlimited and powerful enough to reforge our Prisms should they ever get destroyed, which did happen one time ago!" Bun explained. "So, Tokimura-hakase gave us blueprints to a set of devices called Anti Flash Suppressors, which can allow our Prisms to circumvent the energy of the Flash System and help us temporarily suppress the symptoms of the Anti Flash Phenomenon for at least six months, though the devices need to be regularly recharged on the Red Planet, especially before our Anti Flash Phenomenon symptoms start acting up!" Dai said. "And now as long as we return to the Flash system within a year, we can return to Earth after a couple of years. It's not much, but we have no complaints." Jin explained. "Fascinating!" Lisa said.
"Yeah, Lisa-chan here is very smart." Sakura said. "Very would be an understatement." David said with a smile. "Aw, shucks, David, my love interest, you're making me blush!" Lisa said with a blushing smile. "AW!" The girls all went as Shintomaru opened an Aurora Curtain, allowing the Flashman to return to their world. "Hey, Electra-chan, Eury-san, I have a question." Sakura told the Alebrije of life and death. "Yes, what is it?" The two Alebrijes asked. "Would it be possible for you to...use your powers to revive someone that didn't get the chance to live?" Sakura asked. That took Electraginconia and Euryzinophis by surprise. "As you know, I would have been an Oneechan by now if it weren't for Cerberion, but last week, I got a message from my mother, which combined with another message I got the other day, made me think she was asking me to use your guys' power to revive my unborn brother and sister, and when she visited me in my dream last night, I asked her, and she confirmed it, so..." Sakura said nervously. "I have no reason to believe we couldn't." Electraginconia said. "We'd just need their souls in order to test that theory." Euryzinophis said.
"One problem, though! From what Naturia told me, when Cerberion killed my parents and Oniichan in Japan, my Ototo and Imoto's souls were the only ones that didn't ascend to the afterlife!" Sakura said. "Then they're most likely still somewhere near where the event occurred." Euryzinophis said. "In other words, their souls are back in Japan!" Sakura realized. "Hey, if you want, Desco and I could call Emizel and ask him to find them." Fuka offered. "That would be helpful, though I was thinking about going to Japan to find them once I get the chance to go on a trip to there!" Sakura said. "Well, once they are found, we'd be happy to test out this theory." Electraginconia said, Euryzinophis nodding in agreement. "So, Makros, what are you going to do now?" Ronnie Anne asked. "My mission remains the same, find a way to save Straya, although I guess I now need to protect the Earth from the Pecadiablos as well." Makros answered. "If you want, I could create a device that will generate a disguise, thus allowing you to blend in and not draw too much attention to yourself." Lisa offered.
"Why would I need to disguise myself from the people here on Earth?" Makros asked in confusion. "Well, there are some people out there that tend to be afraid of extraterrestrial beings, mostly due to the lack of knowledge!" Lisa explained. "Plus there's this guy named Jim Sparkletooth who's annoying to us enough without him hounding you." Ronnie Anne said. "Seriously, that guy keeps spreading false news, saying that we're villains pretending to be heroes when we're actually not!" Sid said in annoyance. "And don't get me started on the things he's saying about the relationships LuchaPurple and Blue, along with LuchaCyan and Orange have." She added. "What things?" Makros asked in confusion. "Some best not repeated in present company." Ronnie Anne said, gesturing to the younger ones present. "Yikes! Same-sex relationships aren't uncommon amongst us Gurrugans, usually either between males or between females, though polyamory is also common, especially if there are two or more bisexual females sharing a relationship with one or two males!" Makros said. "Lucky you." Ronnie Anne said with a chuckle. "Anyway, if you feel that to be the right course of action, a disguise would be helpful." Makros said to Lisa. "Excellent, I shall start work on it once I return home." Lisa said. As this was going on, Aya couldn't help but notice something strange about Lori, Luan, Benny, Lucy, Rocky, Aoife, Alraunellie, Panopticon, Denkyem, Yui, and Subaru's auras. "Something wrong, Aya-chan?" Sakura asked in confusion.
"I don't know." Aya admitted. Unbeknownst to everyone, scattered throughout Michigan were several differently colored rocks that arrived in the Meteor Shower, and soon, those stones would make things very interesting!
