Chapter 9
5 years ago
Gianna was walking around her house when she found her mother was sitting at a desk in one of the rooms and she was writing in some sort of notebook. Gianna wasn't stupid. She was 11 years old, and she knew that her parents were a little secretive at times. She supposes that it's just some adult stuff that they feel like herself and her brother wouldn't understand, but it doesn't stop her from trying to figure out what they're hiding.
Her mother, Mia, looked up and noticed Gianna standing in the doorway. She quickly closed the notebook and put it down on the desk. "Hey sweety," she said. "Is everything alright?"
"I'm fine," Gianna replied. "I'm just bored. Dad is outside with Matthew doing some father-son training. I wanted to see what you were up to."
"I'm not doing much. How about you give me about five minutes and then we'll go outside and do some mother-daughter training?
"Ok, but why do we train so much? I know you want us to be able to protect ourselves, but I don't understand why we constantly train and don't do anything that people at school are doing like going to an amusement park or miniature golfing."
Mia gave her daughter a small smile. "I know that it seems unfair now, but it will all make sense eventually. I promise."
"But I want it to make sense now."
"I know you do, but you're not ready to know the truth yet. There is a greater purpose for all of this. I promise, you will know the true reason someday."
Present
The seven new samurai rangers were fighting the nighlok Octoroo summoned. It was their first real battle against a nighlok like this, plus the fact that Matthew and Gianna had only really trained once with the others. Those two were kind of wild cards while fighting compared to the rest of the team. They were the best fighters, but they didn't know much about teamwork except with each other.
"We kind of need you guys to work with us here," Juliet said when Matthew and Gianna were kind of doing their own thing while fighting.
"Sorry," Gianna apologized. "Not used to being part of a team."
"Also, we're still trying to figure out our ranger powers," Matthew added. "It's still unbelievable that we're actually power rangers."
"But if we're going to defeat this guy and stop Octoroo, we need to work together," Brandon said.
"You're right," Gianna admitted. "What's the plan?"
"I might have an idea," Adrain said as he pulled out the shark disc and the black box. "I think you two should do the honors." He handed the shark disc to Matthew and the black box to Gianna.
"I thought that it was said that the gold ranger couldn't use these powers," Matthew said. "In our history class, they mentioned when discussing the samurai rangers that our father programmed these devices, but he couldn't use it himself. It wasn't compatible with his powers."
"Well, my dad discovered that your dad could've used it all along but chose to tell the others he couldn't because he didn't feel the need to use it himself," Adrian explained. "He programmed it. It wouldn't be right if he did all that work but couldn't use it at all. I think after everything you two went through in the last couple of days, it's only right for both of you to use these."
Matthew and Gianna nodded before stepping forward. Gianna attached the black box to her spin sword first. "SUPER SAMURAI MODE!" The white super samurai vest attached to Gianna's pink ranger suit.
"Here goes nothing," Matthew said to himself. He attached the shark disc to his barracuda blade. "SHARK ATTACK MODE!" The red shark attack vest attached to Matthew's gold ranger suit and his barracuda blade turned into the shark sword. He couldn't believe that it really did work. "You just love to keep secrets, don't you, dad," he said to himself again.
Matthew and Gianna started charging at the nighlok. Matthew used the shark sword as a whip while Gianna used her super spin sword. They worked together using the two powerful modes to fight the nighlok. After a bit, they decided that it was time to finish him. Gianna put the turtle disc into the black box. "SUPER AIRWAY!"
Matthew spun the shark disc. "SHARK SWORD STRIKE!"
The twins used their strikes against the nighlok and then turned around doing the classic power ranger pose with an explosion behind them. "Did we seriously just pose after beating a nighlok?" Gianna said. "We're so lame."
"But it looked really cool," Matthew added.
"Don't get too comfortable," Juliet said. "Nighlok grow after they're defeated in their first form." As if on cue, the nighlok grew.
"LION FOLDING ZORD!" Brandon called.
"DRAGON FOLDING ZORD!" Adrian summoned.
"BEAR FOLDING ZORD!" Benjamin beckoned.
"APE FOLDING ZORD!" Rosie called.
"TIGER ZORD!" Juliet yelled.
Matthew and Gianna looked at each other and then took out the zords that their parents had given them when giving them the samuraizer and samurai morpher.
"TURTLE FOLDING ZORD!" Gianna called.
"OCTO ZORD! CLAW ZORD!" Matthew yelled as he made his zords bigger.
"SAMURAI MEGAZORD READY!" Gianna, Adrian, Benjamin, Rosie, and Brandon said as they formed the classic samurai megazord.
"CLAW BATTLEZORD NORTH READY!" Matthew said as he combined his two zords. Matthew also summoned the shark zord to help them out.
The Samurai Megazord, Claw Battlezord, Tiger Zord, and Shark Zord started fighting the nighlok, but it wasn't strong enough to stop him.
"We need to combine all the zords!" Rosie said.
"We can do that?" Gianna asked.
"Of course, we can," Benjamin responded.
"Why didn't we do that in the first place?"
"Good question," Adrian said.
"SAMURAI SHARK GIGAZORD!" they all yelled as all of the zords they can access, except the Lightzord, combined. It was clear that this formation was way more powerful and was very effective against the nighlok. "ULTIMATE SAURAI SLASH!" they all yelled as they delivered the finishing blow to the nighlok.
"Samurai rangers, victory is ours," Juliet said.
