Chapter 3: Let the Aura flow through you! The Maskman's Chakra Is Open!
It was early in the morning, the sun is rising, the birds are chirping, a boy was riding his bike past a neighborhood passing newspapers near each door from different houses. A middle-aged man opened the door while yawning before picking up the newspaper with a fresh hot cup of coffee in his other hand. While he was reading the paper, he noticed that there was a small vibration on the ground creating a ripple from his coffee. As the vibration grew larger, the man began to hear a truck in the distance waking up the neighbors. After everyone stepped outside their houses, they all witnessed a large blue dump truck making its way pass the neighborhood with Kaito, Gaon, Magine and Juran on top of the truck wearing their hero suits. As they continued, the five of them heard an old raspy voice yell "Stop!" From the sudden command, Vroon stopped allowing Kaito to see who spoke up. He scanned for a minute to see the middle-aged man standing in front of them.
Kaito: Oh, good morning sir!
Old man: Good morning to you too lad, now can you explain to me what you are doing riding this large dump truck in a middle of a neighborhood when it's 7:40 in the morning?
Kaito: Sorry about that sir, we're just making our way so that we can make it to N-City quicker!
Old man: But in this time of day? I'm in charge of this neighborhood and you're disturbing everyone's sleep!
Kaito: I'm sorry, I completely understand! We just need to get pass here and you'll never see us again!
The old man then sucked his teeth out of annoyance but let them proceed anyways.
Old man: Just hurry up! And I don't want the same thing happening again or else I'll need to ask for your hero's license!
Kaito: Thank you sir! I promise that you won't have to!
After the old man stepped aside, Vroon continued to move forward while the neighbors gave them a disapproval look on their faces.
Juran: Everyone looks pretty pissed off right now...
Kaito: Yeah, I don't blame them; We did wake them up after all. I honestly do feel bad, but we made it this far so there's no turning back or else it'll make everything worse.
Gaon: Why couldn't we take the train again Kaito?
Kaito: Because the stations could take us to the wrong direction or pass the area that we need to go. So, to make things easier, we should travel like this for now to get where we need to go.
Magine: I just wish that Secchan came with us, h-he must be lonely by now. Mmm~…
Kaito: It's alright Magine, I'm sure that Secchan is doing fine at home by now. He did say that he would rather watch the house until we come back. Thanks to him, we don't have to worry about someone breaking in while we're gone! We owe him one when we return! I could already see it now, once we come back a big smile would spread across his face!
Meanwhile back in the apartment, Secchan was snoring until he woke himself up by sneezing.
Secchan: Someone must be talking about me...oh well.
Secchan continued to sleep with a snot bubble reappearing on the top of his beak inflating and deflating while continuing to snore.
Kaito: Let's go full speed none-stop everyone! Because N-City is our first destination to start off our adventure!
As the bots cheered, Vroon honked his horn to add in the celebration. Hours has passed and the five made it pass the bridge to enter N-City. They quickly notice pedestrians waiting for their arrival causing Vroon to stop. The four hopped off of Vroon allowing him to revert to his hero suit and his original size while a crowd of people applaud them.
Juran: Does anyone know why they're happy to see us...?
Kaito: They're probably welcoming us to their city! I already feel so welcomed here!
Gaon: Thank you, you little cuties! I'm so happy that you all are happy to see me and Kaito!
Magine: D-Do you always have to exclude us...? Mmm~?
As the crowd continued to cheer for the team, an older man stepped up to confront Kaito to shake his hand.
Greeter: We're so happy that you've come to visit N-City Akarenger!
Kaito accepted his shake his hand until he quickly realized what the man called him.
Kaito: Oh no problem, we ju- wait, did you call me "Akarenger"?
Greeter: Of course, and I'm sure that you're in a special mission because you're here with Gao Yellow, Magi Pink, TyrannoRanger and Bouken Blue! We weren't sure at first because the five of your suits are different than usual, but we figured that it must be a new look for the new generation, am I right?
Kaito was silent for a moment while looking back to see the bots shrug their shoulders before looking back at the man.
Kaito: Um...I'm sorry to disappoint you sir, but we're not the heroes that you guys were expecting. Our suits are based on them.
The crowd gasped from what Kaito said.
Greeter: What? Then who are you people?
Kaito: Well, the five of us are new heroes! We call ourselves the Kikai Sentai! Zenka-!
Before Kaito could finish his introduction, the crowd began to leave from disappointment. The bots dropped a sweat as everyone was leaving while Kaito turned pale from embarrassment frozen in place until Juran grabbed hold of his shoulder.
Juran: It's alright man, maybe another time...
The five lowered their heads before walking towards a nearby town.
After making it to a local town, the team were amazed on how much bigger and brighter it was compared to M-City's towns. It had larger buildings covered in LED lights and powder paint, families having fun playing in the park, town's people shopping outdoor markets and gathering to watch public performers.
Magine: Wow, this place has everything!
Vroon: They even have gift shops!
After Magine squealed from excitement, she quickly turned to Kaito while holding her hands together.
Magine: Oh, Kaito please can I visit some shops!
Vroon: Me too, I want to see what kind of stuff they have here!
Kaito: Okay you two, just stick together and don't spend too much. I'll let you two know when we're leaving, alright?
Magine and Vroon nodded while thanking Kaito before running towards a small building with a wooden sign that says "N-City's gift shop". As the three watched the two enter the building, Gaon scoffed while his arms were crossed.
Gaon: Those two are pathetic, how can you be so excited for something pointless like that?
Suddenly, Gaon heard swans honking in a nearby pond making him turn to where the noises were.
Gaon: Oh my God they're so cute! A-And there's cats near that pond too! Kaito, can I please play with the animals?!
Kaito: Yeah sure, just don't go too far and I'll let you know when we're leaving.
Gaon: Got it! Thank you Kaito!
After Gaon ran towards the pond, Juran slowly shook his head from Gaon's reaction.
Juran: And he had the nerve to call Magine and Vroon pathetic...
Kaito: Just ignore him, I'm sure that he doesn't mean it. But do you want to go with Magine and Vroon to the gift shop?
Juran: Nah, I'll just go sit on the bench under the shade, the sun is really rusting my bolts.
Kaito: Yeah, it's hot today; let's go find some shade.
Later after Kaito and Juran sat on a bench behind a tree, Juran shuffled around his side of the seat finding a way to get comfortable.
Juran: Jeez, why do we need to wear our suits now? It's hard for me to sit normally in this thing!
Kaito: Because we need to let the Sentai's know that we're also a part of the Sentai Culture.
Juran: And we couldn't tell them why...?
Kaito was silent for a moment until he rubbed the back of his neck while chuckling nervously before answering.
Kaito: Well...I thought that it would be cool to show off our suits when we meet them...
After Kaito continued to nervously chuckle, Juran face palmed himself while shaking his head. Suddenly, they heard a male's voice speak up near the other side of the tree behind them.
?: I don't think that's a good idea.
Kaito and Juran turned around to see a middle-aged man with a short dark brown ponytail wearing a red traditional clothing made from silk and cotton sitting cross-legged next to the tree.
Kaito: I'm sorry sir, what do you mean?
?: I mean that it seems a bit self-centered. You two are new to the hero business, aren't you.
Kaito and Juran stood up to confront the man before reverting to their civilian clothing.
Kaito: Yes sir, my name is Goshikida Kaito or you can call me by my hero name, Zenkaizer! And this is my brother, Juran! You can also call him by his hero name, Zenkai Juran if you want.
Juran quickly stepped in front of Kaito to speak up.
Juran: Actually, I would rather you just call me Juran…
The man chuckled softly before he spoke.
?: I see, so you two must be a part of the Squadron Culture. That explains why both of your hero suit looks like Akarenger's suit and the Daizyujin. My name is Chimon Takeru, or what you might know me as Red Mask.
Chimon Takeru
Hero name: Red Mask
Class: A
Culture: Sentai
Juran was confused by the nickname while Kaito gasped while continuously patting Juran by the shoulder as he was stuttering his words.
Juran: Sorry man, never heard of you. Also, can you stop hitting me?!
Kaito: B-But that is Red Mask!
Juran: Who in the world is "Red Mask"? You're saying it like I should know.
Kaito: Okay, Red Mask is the leader of the A-Class team Maskman! And the Maskman are a part of the Sentai Culture! So that means we found another Sentai group!
Juran: Seriously? Hell yeah! What a heck of a coincidence to find one this quick!
Both boys quickly turned back to face Takeru before Kaito stood on one knee to be on the same level as him.
Kaito: I-I apologize that we were speaking as if you're not here sir, I'm a huge fan of the Sentai Culture and I am honored to finally meet one!
Takeru gave Kaito a warm smile before responding.
Takeru: I'm happy that you feel that way young man, but I'm also glad that another set of heroes has arrived to this side of the city.
Kaito: Really? Why? Is something happening?
Takeru: Technically, yes. Three years ago, we fought a Demon Level monster that was attacking the city. From its raw power and strength, we couldn't manage to defeat it even with the help of other heroes. It was reported that it was seen a couple of time around the East side of N-City, that's why my team, Feathers and I are on a search for it.
Juran: Is it that hard to find it? It's a monster so if it was roaming around the streets then you could've found it easily.
Takeru: But that's where you're wrong, it's different than the other monsters. It looks human, but it has features that only a monster has. Slit mouth, sharp teeth, a long slithery tongue, and an anorexic body that makes its ribcage very visible. The public calls it Sarp, nobody knows it's motivation but for some reason it only stays and hide around this area. We theorize that it's waiting for something or it's building a machine to take out humanity. That's why we must kill it before it's too late. If it was as violent back then, then it would be no different today.
Kaito: Wow, sounds terrifying. But that's not going to stop us because we've handled monsters more dangerous than Sarp!
Juran: Yeah, fighting human sized hamsters are totally dangerous than this thing...
Kaito quickly hushed Juran before continuing.
Kaito: We'll help you Mr. Chimon! And maybe this will help us beat it!
Kaito dug in his left pocket to grab a blank Sentai Gear to show Takeru.
Takeru: What is that?
Kaito: It's a Sentai Gear, my parents made these to help us use the power of different Sentai teams! But they're all locked unless a red for all the teams grab hold of it to unlock it. So, you wouldn't mind holding this, would you?
Kaito gave Takeru the Gear creating a picture of the number 11 to appear alongside with Takeru's hero suit in the gear. After the gear was complete, Takeru whistled showing how impressed he is.
Takeru: Wow, it actually works.
Kaito: Yeah, it surprised me too when we unlocked the first Gear. But with this, I'm confident that we'll defeat Sarp for sure!
As Kaito was reaching for the gear, Takeru closed his palm to keep it from him.
Takeru: Hold on for a second, I'll give you this gear back. But I'll only give it back to you when we find Sarp.
Juran: What?! Why not give it to us now?! You don't trust us or something?!
Takeru: Please don't take it personally, but I just met you two and I don't know your true intention. The last thing I want to figure out is that you and your team are only hero's just for fame and nothing else. So, to keep you here; I'll hold onto this gear until we find Sarp even if it takes weeks, months or even a year.
Juran: Come on! That's ju-!
Before Juran could continue, he stopped when he heard Kaito calmly said "okay" as his response.
Juran: Huh? Kaito, did I hear you right? Are you really agreeing with this?! This is our gear, so we don't need to win it back when we find this thing!
Kaito: I know, but I understand why Mr. Chimon would do this. Believe it or not but there are a lot of people who registers to the hero organization for money and fame. Sure, they get kicked out as soon as the Organization finds out, but that's one problem when it comes to humans and it's thinking about themselves instead of thinking of others. So, Mr. Chimon; you can keep the Gear until we find Sarp! The last thing that we want to do is to let you down!
Takeru: You have a great heart Kaito, I trust that you and your team are true to your word.
After the both of them stood back up, Takeru grabbed five small handheld devices from his pockets to give to Kaito and Juran.
Takeru: These devices are trackers. Whoever presses the red button, it will activate the rest of the trackers to point you to the direction of the one who pressed it. Originally, these are made for hikers or adventures who travels into dangerous location such as a cave for an example. But, in this case, we'll use it once we all split up and if you know for sure that you've found Sarp then click the button and it'll let all of us know.
Kaito saluted while Juran began to scratch the back of his head.
Kaito: Got it!
Juran: Yeah, same. But do you think that you can describe what this thing looks like? If it looks human, then we don't want to accidentally mistake a civilian with Sarp.
Takeru: Of course. As I said, Sarp's appearance is similar to a human being but it looks more of a male than a female. It was spotted wearing a light brown trench coat, a face mask and a leather hat. Without it, Sarp is pale and has a very boney body with a slit mouth, slithery tongue like a snake and straight gray hair. It also uses its own bones as weapons and the most dangerous apart about it is that it can even create a wave of bones from the ground. So, I warn you two to watch out if you do find Sarp. I'll contact my team that another team of heroes joined our search party.
Kaito: Right! Thanks Mr. Chimon, we won't let you down!
After Kaito and Juran began to run the other way, they stopped to look back when Takeru yelled for their attention.
Takeru: Wait, what do you call yourselves?
Kaito smirked before standing tall while resting his hands on his hips to look confident.
Kaito: We are the Zenkaigers, sir!
After hearing the team's name, Takeru became confused for a moment.
Takeru: Wait, but aren't you called Zenkaizer?
Kaito quickly began to slouch his body while trying to keep his smile up as he dropped a bead of sweat.
Kaito: I-It's a long story...
As the both continued to run to meet up with the rest, Juran began to snicker.
Kaito: "I told you that name wasn't a good idea", I know! You don't have to rub it in!
After Vroon and Magine walked out of the shop reverting to their original form, they heard Kaito and Juran yelling their name while running towards them.
Vroon: Kaito! Juran!
Magine: W-We were just about to look for you guys! Mmm~!
After the two made it to them, Kaito was catching his breath while Juran began to fan himself.
Juran: God, it's such a pain in the ass to run when it's this hot...
Kaito: Yeah, same. But we're glad to catch you guys because we have a mission!
Vroon: "A mission"?
Magine: What mission are you talking about?
Before Kaito could say, he realized that one is missing.
Kaito: Wait, where's Gaon?
Juran: He's near the pond with those animals, remember that he asked you?
Kaito: Crap, I forgot. Let me get him first before I explain.
Kaito began to run towards the pond to call out Gaon's name. He continued until he saw Gaon's legs was above the surface while his head was in the water.
Kaito: Gaon?!
Kaito quickly ran in the pond to bring Gaon back up in the surface. After dragging him out of the water, He plopped Gaon while the two was catching their breaths.
Kaito: Gaon, what happened? Why was your head inside the water?!
Gaon: I was trying to play with the large birds, but they started hissing and attacked me! All I wanted was to be their friend...
Kaito: Are you serious? I didn't think that Swans were so aggressive. But it's fine Gaon, there are plenty of other animals that are better than Swans. But, right now we should meet up with the others because we need to do something important.
Later, Kaito and Gaon met up with the bots once again while both of their clothes were dripping.
Juran: Geez, what happened to you?
Gaon: I'm not in the mood, and seeing you three is making it worst...
Kaito: Gaon, stop. But Juran and I met up with a red from a Sentai team.
Vroon: You guys did?
Juran: Yeah, he was kind of weird and took our Sentai Gear.
Kaito: For a reason, basically we just need to find a monster who's roaming around the city. It looks human, so it blends in with the crowd.
Gaon: Are you serious? I can't bring myself to hurt a human!
Juran: Oh God! Do we have to put up with this every time we fight an animal themed monster?! This thing looks human but it's still a monster!
Gaon: Shut up! You don't know how hard it is for me!
Kaito: Enough guys! This is serious! It looks human, but it still has features like a monster! It's bonier than an average human and it has similar traits like a snake like a slit mouth and a slithery tongue. They call it Sarp, they don't know what it's planning because it's been seen more than once around this area of the city. So, we'll know if it's Sarp if you find a guy with long gray hair, a face mask, a leather hat and a light brown trench coat.
Magine: B-But what if we mmm~istake another human for Sarp?
Kaito: Don't worry because it would be hard to since it is a hot day and people shouldn't wear a thick coat like a trench coat during this type of weather.
Juran: The guy gave us these devices called a tracker if one of us find this thing, so we should split up to find Sarp easier.
Kaito: That's right, but you will press this red button when you know for sure you have found the monster. Once you do, it'll share your location. Got it?
The three bots nodded before Juran and Kaito gave them the remaining devices.
Kaito: Alright, we'll split up and search around the area even outside this town.
The bots nodded once again before the five began to run towards opposite directions from each other.
Later, Juran ran towards a public park to see families participating different activities while the kids were playing in the playground.
Juran: Damn, there's a lot of people than I originally thought.
Juran quickly shook his head before hitting it.
Juran: Focus, it shouldn't be hard because the thing is wearing a light brown trench coat! Easy, let's go!
Juran then met with the families to roam around to look for the right description. He continued until he was stopped by a little girl standing in front of Juran while staring up at him.
Juran: Uh, hey kid. Can I help you...?
Kid: You look funny, are you a robot or something?
Juran: No, I'm a construction worker. Of course I'm a robot, what kind of stupid question is that?
Kid: Well, you don't have to be mean about it. I bet that you don't have any friends because how ugly you are!
Juran then sighed before leaning down towards the girl.
Juran: Listen kid, you're not the first brat to call me ugly. Hell, I've been hearing that from a certain someone during my whole life! So, in other words come up with something original and go scrape your knee or something, I'm busy right now.
As Juran stood back up, he continued to walk past the girl until she brought out her leg to trip him causing Juran to fall face first. As he was about to get up, the girl yelled "DOG PILE" causing a bunch of kids to jump on top of Juran causing him to plop back down.
Juran: God I hate kids...
Meanwhile, Gaon was in the middle of a crowd looking for Sarp but stopped when he saw two children sitting down near a food booth. Gaon manage to escape the crowd to walk near the booth to grab two apples to hand them over to the kids.
Gaon: You two look hungry, take these. Kaito told me that humans need food to get their energy back, so take these to eat them.
The kids gasped and grabbed the food before running away while waving at Gaon.
Gaon: Aw. They're so adorable, I'm always glad to help humans.
Gaon then felt someone tap his shoulder making him turn around to see a large man looking down at him.
Man: Did you grab my apples?
Gaon: Oh, uh those were yours? I-I'm sorry I didn't kn-
Man: Are you going to pay for those?
As the man stepped closer towards Gaon, he continued to stutter while grabbing his wallet.
Gaon: O-Of course! Let me jus-
After he opened it, a moth flew out revealing that there was nothing inside.
Gaon: Um…I could expla-!
Suddenly, the man grabbed Gaon by the jacket to lead him inside the booth.
Meanwhile, Magine was looking in the same area until she saw a small booth with an older woman rubbing a crystal ball. Magine continued to stare until the old woman spoke up.
Fortune teller: You must be interested young one.
Magine began to shiver from fear while looking around herself before pointing at herself.
Magine: Mmm~e?! N-No I-I was j-just-
Fortune teller: Don't try to lie young one, I know when someone or in your case something is lying. Aren't you looking for someone?
Magine gasped before walking towards the old woman.
Magine: H-How did you know that? Mmm~?
Fortune teller: I know everything about everyone even their future. I can help you find this specific person for 500 yen.
Magine: F-Five hundred yen?! O-Oh gosh, I-I don't have that mmm~uch money b-because I s-spent it in the g-gift shop!
Fortune teller: What? Are you kidding me? If you don't have any yen then you will not hear any fortune from me!
Magine: N-No! Please ma'am! T-This is important! I-If I don't f-find this person t-then great d-danger will happen s-soon! Mmm~!
Fortune teller: Hey, who's the fortune teller here? Me or you?
Magine quickly stood in her knees to plead with old woman with desperation in her voice.
Magine: PLEASE! I-I'm begging you!
Fortune teller: Alright, alright stop with all of that crying! I'll tell you where the location of the person you are looking for.
Magine: Oh t-thank you ma'am!
Fortune teller: Yeah, yeah whatever...
The fortune teller waved her hand around the ball before looking closer.
Fortune teller: I see it.
Magine: Y-You do?! Mmm~?!
Fortune teller: Yes, I can also see monkeys; a bunch of them. He must be inside a cage with the monkeys downtown in the N-City's zoo.
Magine: Yes! T-Thank you for you k-kindness ma'am!
Magine then ran towards the zoo's direction causing the fortune teller to chuckle before muttering the word "sucker" to herself.
Meanwhile, Vroon was running while searching for Sarp until he saw an entrance with the sign that says "maze" by the side.
Vroon: The monster must be hiding in there!
Vroon then charged towards the maze's entrance to search inside. He continued to turn the corners until he noticed a reflection of himself with no more corners to turn.
Vroon: Huh? This is those mirror things, right? Kaito has that in his house and there's a ton on those buildings; I wonder why it's here.
Vroon shrugged his shoulders before turning around to head towards the exit, but stopped when he saw two different corners.
Vroon: Uh oh, this is tricky. But it's a good thing that I have great a memory! I'll get out of this place in no time!
He then ran towards the left side before turning another corner before he yelled "dang it!" from meeting another dead end.
Meanwhile, Kaito was outside the town to search but stopped abruptly when a line of belly dancers was walking past Kaito without saying a word.
Kaito: Oh, I'm sorry ladies; I didn't see you there.
After he waited, the line finally finished allowing him to cross.
Kaito: Awesome, now I should look around here to se-
Before Kaito could finish, he accidentally bumped into one last belly dancer causing both of them to fall. After the performers turned around to see, they gasped to see the two on the ground.
Kaito: Oh gosh! I'm so sorry, I didn't see you!
Belly dancer: It's fine, it's my fault for not catching up with the others.
The rest of the girls gathered around the fallen belly dancer to help her up until she groaned from pain as she put pressure onto her left foot.
Belly dancer: Damn it, I think that I accidentally sprained my ankle!
After Kaito picked himself up, he began to panic while grabbing hold of his head.
Kaito: What? Are you serious? Oh no, I didn-
Before Kaito could finish his apology, a short chubby man wearing a tuxedo with a clipboard resting on his left arm walked towards the group.
?: What is the holdup ladies? We have a performance to get to!
Belly dancer: I'm sorry Mr. Khan, I can't stand properly. I accidentally sprained my ankle.
Mr. Khan: What? Are you serious? But we need you, how did you sprain your ankle?
Kaito began to drench his shirt with his sweat as he raised his hand while shivering.
Kaito: I-I accidentally bumped into her sir, I'm sorry I wasn't looking where I was going! Is there anything I could do to repay you?
Mr. Khan: Uh yeah! I would love it if you could find a replacement because this is the biggest show we've planned!
Sweat continued to fall from Kaito's face as he was shivering from trying to speak.
Kaito: I-I um, I-I can't think o-of anyone to help complete your performance sir, I-I'm sorry…
Mr. Khan: "Sorry" isn't going to cut it. You have two options, option one is that you take her place and help these ladies perform or option two is that you pay for the damage that you've caused!
Kaito quickly became surprised to hear the first option causing him to take one step back.
Kaito: Huh?! Me?! Taking her place?! I-I don't even know how to even perform that way!
Mr. Khan: Well tough luck kid! Would you rather pay? It'll be 100,000,00 yen if that's the case!
From hearing the price, Kaito caught his breath while staring blankly for what felt like an eternity before sighing as his head hung low.
Kaito: Let's just get this over with already...
Later inside a large performance tent, people were walking inside to take a seat while Mr. Khan was peaking his eyes out to see. He then turned around to clap his hands catching the girl's attention.
Mr. Khan: Okay ladies! The show is about to start in five more minutes!
Mr. Khan scanned the room for a moment to realize that one person is missing.
Mr. Khan: Where the hell is the replacement? New guy! Come out! Your practice shouldn't be that long!
Mr. Khan turned his head when he heard the curtains open to see two belly dancers exiting the practice room with Kaito wearing the same uniform as the ladies with a gloomy expression.
Kaito: This is really embarrassing; I couldn't have my own room or wear something different?
Mr. Khan: Sorry kid, you're the first and only male to become a belly dancer. Now, quit complaining! The show is about to start! Come on ladies! Chop-chop!
The women began to form a line with Kaito before walking out to present themselves to the crowd as they began to cheer. After the music speaker turned on, the dancers began to perform alongside with Kaito staying in the same rhythm and beat. As they continued, Kaito began to think too himself while taking deep breaths.
"Okay Kaito, calm down. Let's think positive about this, this is a full house! Sarp could be in here as we speak!"
As he continued to dance alongside with the girls, his eyes scanned the stadium before chuckling to himself.
"Hehehe! What am I thinking. As if a monster would visit a belly dance performance. I doubt that would ever-…"
Kaito quickly gasped while his eyes widened when he saw a man in the stadium wearing a light brown trench coat, a face mask and a leather hat sitting with the crowd staring with a sinister look.
"HAPPEN?! WHAT THE HELL?! Not good! Not good! Out of all the places, why here?! What should I do?!"
Kaito began to nervously chuckle while stepping backwards still dancing towards the backstage confusing the crowd and the performers. After successfully entering the backstage, he began to run towards the device to click the red button notifying everyone connected with the tracker.
Mr. Khan: What do you think you're doing?! That wasn't a part of the show! You must want to pa-!
Mr. Khan stopped as he held his breath when Kaito grabbed hold of his Geartlinger.
Kaito: I'm sorry sir, but I need you to end this show and evacuate everyone out to safety. There is a demon level threat inside this tent right now and everyone will be in danger if they don't leave. Do you think that you can manage to do that without freaking everyone out?
Mr. Khan nodded before running towards the speaker to turn off the music and speak through the microphone.
Mr. Khan: I'm sorry everyone but an emergency has occurred, please exit towards the entrance or the safety door please and thank you!
Everyone was confused but stood up from their seats to walk towards the exit while the ladies entered the backstage to see Kaito and Mr. Khan.
Kaito: I'm sorry ladies, it's an emergency. Head towards the back door and get to safety as fast as you can.
The women did as they were told with Mr. Khan following behind them towards the back door while Kaito entered the stage once more to scan the room. He continued until he saw Sarp blend in with the crowd walking towards the exit. He took a deep breath before jumping down the stage to move past the crowd while excusing himself to meet up with Sarp grabbing hold of its shoulder. Sarp turned around to stare down at Kaito before it took its face mask to reveal it's slit mouth and slithery tongue while hissing like a serpent causing Kaito's eyes to widen.
Kaito: Oh no, everyone run! Quick, Sarp is here!
After hearing Kaito's cries, everyone began to run past the two creating a stamped. As Kaito was crouching down to protect himself, Sarp leaped towards him to pin him down to bite his neck; but Kaito quickly kicked him off away from the crowd near the stage to meet up with it. Kaito quickly grabbed his Geartlinger to shoot at Sarp causing it to stumble back tearing the clothes from the bullets. From the damage, Sarp ripped its jacket and hat off to reveal its skinny and pale body before unsheathing a long-pointed bone out of its palm to run towards Kaito to stab him. He dodged the attack before grabbing his Sentai Gear to insert it in his Geartlinger before yelling "Change Zenkai". As he continued to dodge Sarp's attacks, he cranked the handle before the Geartlinger announced the number.
#45 Bang!
He quickly points his Geartlinger towards Sarp's torso before pulling the trigger causing Sarp to forcefully back away from impact while the holographic gear formed around Kaito to transform into his hero suit.
Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang!
Babababang!
Zenkaizer!
Kaito stood his ground after Sarp recovered before crouching down to shoot out mini sharp tipped bones out of its back to aim towards Kaito. He quickly dodged the attacks before noticing that the bones weren't destroyed, but following his movements.
Kaito: Crap! Tracking missiles!
He continued to dodge the bones until he used his Geartlinger to pull the trigger while cranking the handle shooting multiple bullets destroying them. As he was distracted, Sarp ran towards Kaito to swing the bladed bone attached to its palm but missed when Kaito ducked to shoot Sarp's body causing it to stumble back once more while smoke appeared from the gun. After Kaito stood back up, the smoke cleared away before revealing Sarp's ribcage unsheathed itself to protect its body. Sharp tipped bones began to appear around the rest of Sarp's body until a snake skull formed around its head revealing a new armor to protect Sarp. It then grabbed the back of its neck to pull out its spinal cord to whip Kaito, but missed when he dove to the side to continue to shoot at it. They continued until the spinal cord latched onto Kaito's neck causing him to grab hold of it struggling to free himself.
Kaito: Damn it! I don't have any other choice but to use it!
As the spinal cord was gripping his neck tighter, Kaito grabbed the Kiramager Gear from his belt to place it in his Geartlinger before sealing it.
#44 Bang!
After pointing the Geartlinger at Sarp, he pulled the trigger creating a hologram of Kiramai Red to appear between the two. The hologram snatched the spinal cord to pull it to free Kaito while the Geartlinger continued with its announcement.
Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang!
Babababang!
Kiramager!
Afterwards, the hologram of Kiramai Red jumped towards Kaito's hands to transform into the Kiramager's sword and gun causing him to gasp from shock.
Kaito: Woah! Aren't these the weapons that Juru and his team used?
Without any warning, Sarp used its spinal cord to whip Kaito multiple times before falling from impact. Sarp whipped his spinal cord once more, but Kaito quickly used the sword to catch it wrapping around the weapon to trap it. As Sarp struggled to pull the weapon back, Kaito quickly used the firearm to shoot a blue disk at Sarp point blank causing it to fall backwards letting go of the weapon. Kaito's eyes widened underneath his helmet while starting to chuckle out of excitement.
Kaito: Awesome! I love this thing already!
After Sarp stood back up, it hissed aggressively while revealing two large bladed bones out of both of its forearms. After it stopped, Kaito was silent for a moment before yelling "Holy shi-!" until he was thrown out of the tent causing him to roll on the ground from damage. He stood up to recover but quickly met Sarp's blade swinging at him but stopped it with his sword. They began to clash swords with each other until Sarp made contact with Kaito's suit causing him to fall backwards. After he recovered once more, he quickly noticed Sarp dashing towards him while slithering his body before the two connected their blades once more. As they were struggling to hold their own weapons, Kaito quickly kicked Sarp's left leg forcing it to give out before slashing its ribcage multiple times causing it to fall backwards once more. As Sarp was recovering from the damage, Kaito quickly grabbed the firearm to combine the sword with it.
Kaito: Here goes nothing!
Kaito quickly pulled the lever of the firearm to charge it for the final shot as it spoke up.
Kira-Kiramai Charge!
He began to point the weapon toward Sarp to pull the trigger to shoot a large orange beam at it causing it to fly from impact destroying the armor as it rolled on the ground once more.
Checkmage!
Kaito began to celebrate as he yelled "Yes! I did it!" while jumping from excitement, but quickly stopped when he noticed Sarp standing back up to let out a loud screeching howl causing Kaito to cover the side of his helmet trying to cover his ears. After it stopped, a small rumble appeared confusing him as he was looking around himself.
Meanwhile, Takeru and Feather were running toward the direction Kaito is located but stopped when a rumble was felt. After it stopped, a skeleton hand revealed itself out of the ground. As a bunch of skeletons rose up from the concrete, they were all wearing ancient clothing shocking the two heroes.
Feather: The hell is going on?
Feather
Class: A
Culture: Hero
Takeru: I'm not so sure, our ancestors has risen from the dead. It must be the work of Sarp, it must've manipulated their deceased bodies to create an army!
Feather: Unforgivable, Sarp must die today! Get out of here and find the bastard to kill it while I will take care of them. I'll contact for backup just in case, call your team to finish the job!
Takeru nodded while saying "right!" before speaking to the brace attached to his wrist.
Takeru: Everyone, come in. How far are you to the destination?
From the brace was a female's voice responding to him.
?: We're close to the destination, we're not that far!
Takeru: Got it, I'll meet you four there...!
After dismissing the call, he noticed the army of skeletons run towards the two heroes waving their rusted shields, swords and armor.
Takeru: Please forgive me my ancestors, but I must go!
Takeru clasped his hands together before opening it with his index fingers and thumbs linked together causing his aura to rise. As it grew stronger, he released the energy creating a shockwave clearing a huge space for him to run past.
Meanwhile after the rumbling stopped, an army of skeletons began to appear from the ground causing Kaito to gasp. After they rose up to the surface, the army prepared their weapons while Kaito let out a soft sigh.
Kaito: Great, just my luck…
After Kaito's weapons reverted back into his Geartlinger, he was about to pull the trigger while aiming at the skeletons as they were charging towards him until shots from another firearm appeared destroying some before everyone turned to see who did it. They turned to see the bots running towards Kaito while Gaon was wearing a rubber gloves, an apron and a hairnet and Magine was covered in bite marks and monkey fur.
Kaito: Guys! You made it!
Vroon: It was trickier than I thought trying to get to you Kaito! I was stuck in this thing called a maze but managed to escape!
Juran: Well, aren't you lucky because I was attacked by a bunch of kids! It took everything for me to get here...
Kaito: Trapped in a maze and attacked by kids? How bizarre, but Gaon and Magine; what happened to you two...?
Before Gaon answered, he looked down while twirling his finger with a low voice.
Gaon: I gave two kids an apple but I forgot to pay for it, so he made me work for free...
After Gaon explained his side, Magine began to shiver from her memories from entering a cage from a zoo to find Sarp but was attacked by a bunch of monkeys.
Magine: I-I would rather not say...
Sarp caught the group's Suddenly, Sarp began to his catching the Zenkaigers's attention until the army of skeletons began to run towards them to attack. Before they could, four motorcycles jumped past the five to run over the skeletons causing their bones to scatter the floor before one aimed for Sarp causing it to fall on its back. The four bikers stopped near the Zenkaigers to take off their helmets. On the left was a woman in her late 20s with a brown bob haircut wearing male yellow traditional clothing. next to her was a man in his late 30s with short black hair wearing black traditional clothing. Next to him was a young man in his mid 20s with neck length brown hair wearing blue traditional clothing and the last on the right side was a woman in her early 30s with long brown hair wearing a traditional garment.
?: Are you five the Zenkaigers?
Cahya Haruka
Hero name: Yellow Mask
Class: A
Culture: Sentai
Kaito nervously saluted to her before speaking.
Kaito: Y-Yes ma'am!
Haruka: Great, we thank you all for finding Sarp.
?: Yes, this is what I was afraid of. Creating an army to overtake us, but thanks to you five you found it before it could do it earlier.
Eshin Kenta
Hero name: Black Mask
Class: A
Culture: Sentai
Vroon: Thank you, but Kaito is the one that found it when the rest of us were splitten up to search for it!
Kaito began to rub the back of his helmet while chuckling nervously.
Kaito: I-It was just a mere coincidence...
The young man exited his bike to walk closer to Kaito's face making him whisper "too close".
?: "Coincidence", huh? It has to be more than a coincidence to find Sarp.
Chinshu Akira
Hero name: Blue Mask
Class: A
Culture: Sentai
?: I agree, it took us years to finally find Sarp! I would love to hear how you found it!
Achara Momoko
Hero name: Pink Mask
Class: A
Culture: Sentai
Before Sarp fully recovered from the damage, the three exited their bikes as they all focused on it until they noticed Takeru finally making it towards the group.
Haruka: It's about time you've made it.
Takeru: I apologize, skeletons appeared on my way here. Feather and the other heroes are fighting them off, they're everywhere. If we defeat Sarp, then the undead will be free once again. Kaito, I would like to thank you for keeping your word. With that, I am forever in your gratitude.
Kaito nodded before giving a thumbs up.
Kaito: No worries Mr. Chimon! I'm just happy to help!
Takeru nodded as well before focusing on Sarp and its army standing their ground preparing themselves for battle.
Takeru: Okay everyone, let's finish this once and for all. Let's go! Aura Mask!
The five jumped to levitate before creating an aura wall from each of their meditation gesture. After flying through it, the five transformed into their hero suits which contains their respective colors with white on the neck, arm, chest area, gloves and stripes on the boots including a silver belt buckle and a silver five placed on their chest. After landing, the Zenkaigers stared at them with awe as they began to introduce themselves.
Red Mask!
Black Mask!
Blue Mask!
Yellow Mask!
Pink Mask!
Hikari Sentai! Maskman!
After the Zenkaigers yelled "woa~h" in unison, Kaito quickly spoke up catching the bot's attention.
Kaito: Alright guys, you should transform too so that we could help them!
The bots nodded before placing their Sentai Gears inside their Geartlingers to seal it. The four yelled "Change Zenkai" before cranking the handle allowing it to announce their numbers.
#16 Bang!
#25 Bang!
#29 Bang!
#30 Bang!
Gaon and Juran spun once before Vroon and Magine spun from the jingle until the four pulled the trigger to transform into their hero suits.
Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang!
Babababang!
Zenkai Juran!
Zenkai Gaon!
Zenkai Magine!
Zenkai Vroon!
After transforming, the Zenkaigers stood side by side with the Maskmen before introducing themselves in a different manner.
Dancing Power! Zenkaizer!
Babysitting Power...! Zenkai Juran...!
Causing Trouble Power...! Zenkai Ga~on...!
Misfortune Power! Zenkai Magine!
Maze Running Power! Zenkai Vroon!
The five assembled are!
Kikai Sentai! Zenkaiger!
Sarp began to hiss at them while the herd of skeletons began to run towards both teams as they did the same thing. Vroon slashed through a few skeletons with his pickaxe while Akira round house kicked one before summoning blue tonfas while yelling "Masky Tonfas!"
Akira: Blue! Give me a boost!
Vroon: Right! Here I go!
Vroon grabbed Akira by the waist to throw him towards the other side. As Akira was landing, he kicked down a skeleton carrying a shield before he blocked two sword strikes with both of his tonfas.
Vroon: Oh boy, wait for me! Let me help!
Vroon crouched down for a moment before rushing his way towards Akira destroying skeletons standing his way. After stopping, he grabbed his pickaxe to block a sword slash before slashing multiple skeletons around them.
Akira: Thank you, try and round them up! I have a plan!
Vroon: "Round them up"? That should be easy enough, I'll get it done in a jiffy!
Vroon began to speed-up his legs to run faster while grabbing each skeleton surrounding them to round them up in a herd of a circle before making his way back to Akira.
Akira: Wow, that was fast.
Vroon: I like to keep things organized as fast as I can, what are you planning?
Akira: Watch and learn!
Akira then placed his hands together before sticking his left index fingers out to wrap his other hand around it creating a large flow of aura. After letting go, blue webs attached to his fingers extended when he widened his arms before throwing it to wrap around the herd of skeletons trapping them together.
Vroon: Woah! Amazing!
Akira: Let's finish them before it wears out!
Vroon nodded before grabbing his Geartlinger to crank the handle while Akira formed his signature meditation gesture once again allowing aura to rise.
Hero! Super Zenkai Time!
As the standby music began to play, the aura that formed around Akira's hands began to glow brighter before finally releasing it creating a large fireball at the herd after Vroon pulled the trigger shooting a large beam destroying the herd all together.
Dai Zenkai! Vroon!
After successfully destroying them, both Vroon and Akira high fived each other. Meanwhile, Magine destroyed a couple of skeletons from her swinging her dragon tailed scepter while Momoko used her Laser Magnum to shoot her half as they were surrounding girls.
Momoko: Miss? Do you have anything to help trim these monsters down?
Magine: I-I don't p-personally, b-but I have an i-idea!
She began to wave her weapon around before spinning as she murmured "mmm~!" Before the skeletons could take a swing, they began to float amazing Momoko but shocked Magine.
Magine: I-It worked? I-It finally worked! Mmm~!
Momoko: Wow! Great thinking Miss! This is a great opportunity to use this!
Momoko then summoned her personal weapon while yelling "Masky Ribbon!" She then extended the ribbon to wrap around the skeletons in the air before slamming them to the ground before placing her handle to the floor causing flames to rise on the pile destroying them instantly. Another wave of skeletons ran towards the girls catching the two's attention causing Magine to think to herself.
"C-Crap! O-Okay, I-I'll just do the anti-gravity spell again and try to set them on fire with the flame spell!"
Magine quickly waved her weapon once again causing the skeletons to float as she murmured "mmm~!" She then lifted her thumb, index finger and pinky up while her ring and middle fingers were down to point at the skeletons, but instead of them catching on fire; the skeletons began to dismantle one by one causing Magine to drop a sweat while slouching her body from embarrassment.
Momoko: Wow! Good thinking Miss! If you keep this up then we'll get through this quicker!
Magine: U-Uh...Y-Yeah, T-Thank you...
Meanwhile, Haruka used her sword to fight off her side of the group while Gaon was used his claws to pounce on his side to slash them one at a time. He continued until one swung its sword at him but stopped halfway when Gaon used his claws to block the attack. Both continued to struggle until Haruka used her sword to slash the skeleton in half saving him.
Haruka: Are you okay?
Gaon: Yes, thank you Ms. Human! I'm so grateful tha-!
Before he could finish his thanks, Haruka suddenly yelled "watch out!" as a line of skeletons shot arrows from their bows at the two. After Gaon turned around, he gasped before standing in front of Haruka to use his claws to rapidly swipe the arrows away as it was raining down towards them.
Gaon: DON'T WORRY! I WON'T LET THESE THINGS HURT YOU!
Haruka sighed before clasping both of her hands together before sticking her ring and pinky finger out to create an aura. After letting go, she pointed both of her hands at the arrows causing them to stop midair shocking Gaon.
Gaon: Wha-?! How di-?
Haruka: Aura, your speed for defense was great n' all but doing this saves us more time.
After letting go, the arrows fell to the ground as the skeletons began to reload more arrows.
Haruka: Watch my back while I take care of these guys!
Gaon: Got it!
Gaon charged towards the crowd of skeletons while Haruka formed her signature meditation gesture once more before yelling "Yellow Mask! Shadow Clones!" creating ten clones of herself side by side. Haruka and her clones summoned a yellow top as they yelled "Masky Rotor" in unison. All of them then used their Rotor to tangle one of each skeleton before transmitting energy destroying the skeletons all at once.
Meanwhile, Juran used his shield to block a sword attack before pushing the skeleton away to slash it with his sword.
Juran: Jeez these things are weak! I bet even a simple breeze could tear these things down!
Kenta: Don't disrespect these warriors!
Juran looked back to see Kenta slash his sword at a skeleton before turning to face him.
Kenta: These warriors are our ancestors from the ancient period! They're now controlled by Sarp, so we should put them back to rest but still give them honor and respect they deserve!
He then grabbed his blaster to shoot at a couple of skeletons while Juran dropped a sweat from what he saw.
Juran: Yeah, and I'm sure that shooting them is ho-!
Before Juran could finish his thought, a skeleton slashed his back causing sparks to fly as he fell to the ground.
Juran: Ouch! You jerk! That hurts!
Juran began to clash his sword with the skeleton before using his shield to smack it away before slashing it. Both Juran and Kenta was facing opposite from each other while bumping into each other's backs being surrounded.
Juran: Any idea for how we can escape this?
Kenta thought about it for a moment before giving an answer.
Kenta: I do, when I say "now" you throw your shield.
Juran: Huh? Throw my shield?
Kenta: This is literally a life-or-death situation we're in so you just have to trust me on this!
Kenta quickly clasped his hands together to enlace his fingers into a fist as his aura grew before yelling "now!" making Juran sigh before throwing his shield at the skeletons. As the shield was spinning towards the army, it began to glow from the aura causing it to zoom towards each skeletons destroying them on its own.
Juran: Holy crap! How are you doing that?!
Kenta: I'm controlling it with my aura, let's take advantage of this situation and take them out quick!
Juran threw his sword to grab his Geartlinger while Kenta summoned a staff while yelling "Masky Rod!" He then hopped onto the shield to surf through the crowd before using the staff to swing at the skeletons while Juran cranked the handle as he was holding the trigger shooting multiple bullets at the crowd.
Later as the rest was dealing with the skeletons, Takeru and Kaito leaped towards Sarp to attack but missed when it ducked to roll past them. It then shot out multiple sharp end bones out of its back before turning around to face the two. Both Kaito and Takeru dove the opposite sides from each other to shoot Sarp with their firearms, but did less damage when it grew its armor back. Sarp then unsheathed two sharp end bones from both of its palms before hissing to charge towards the both of them to attack. Takeru quickly summoned a sword while yelling "Masky Blade!" before clashing it with Sarp but quickly ended when it used its other bone to slash him across the chest before kicking him back. Sarp turned to Kaito after shooting its back causing it to run towards him to swing its weapon. Kaito quickly backed away to avoid the attack but was caught by the second swing slashing him a couple of time causing him to roll on the floor from damage. As Sarp loudly hissed from victory, Kaito struggled to get back up until Takeru helped him by placing his arm around his shoulder.
Takeru: Are you okay Kaito?
Kaito: Yeah, thanks. I forgot how impenetrable its armor is.
After hearing Kaito's comment, he quickly thought of something.
Takeru: I have an idea, find a way to weaken its armor. I have something that'll kill it.
After Kaito nodded, Takeru let him go before Kaito grabbed the Kiramager gear again to place it in his Geartlinger to seal it to crank the handle.
#44 Bang!
Kaito: Gosh, I hope this works again!
Kaito then pulled the trigger to show the hologram of the Kiramagers before turning into the miniature version of the Mashins.
Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang!
Babababang!
Kiramager!
Kaito quickly held the top of his helmet after seeing the crystals.
Kaito: Huh?! They turned into those crystals again?!
The Mashins began to attack the remaining skeletons clearing the area until the five began to attack Sarp causing it to swing aimlessly trying fight back but failed. Takeru began to notice cracks appearing around the armor before the Mashins flew to the air to turn into dust. Kaito was speechless for a moment until Takeru grabbed hold of his shoulder.
Takeru: It worked, thank you Kaito; now it's my chance. God Hand!
He began to focus on his right hand causing it to glow as bright as it could. After Sarp gained its focus, it saw Takeru run towards it to punch a hole in its chest causing it to scream a loud screech from pain. As Takeru was about to go deeper, Sarp unhinged its jaw to bite Takeru's shoulder causing him to let go as he grunted from pain. Both teams witnessed what happened making them run towards Takeru, but Sarp let go of his shoulder leaving a bite mark before kicking him in the chest causing him to stumble backwards. As Takeru was falling, Kaito quickly caught him while the rest gathered around them.
Haruka: Takeru! Talk to us!
Vroon: Please don't die!
Gaon: No! Don't die please!
As he was breathing heavily, he grabbed hold of his shoulder while sitting himself up.
Takeru: It's fine everyone, I'm not dying. I was careless, I gave it an opening to attack...!
Kaito: It's fine Mr. Chimon, it's not your fault. We'll take care of it while you rest!
Takeru: No, I can still fight.
As Takeru was getting back up, he grabbed the gear from the inside of his boot to pass it to Kaito.
Takeru: Use it Kaito, we need all the power we need to defeat Sarp!
Kaito grabbed hold of the Gear before bowing.
Kaito: Thank you Mr. Chimon! We'll do our best!
Kaito quickly faced Sarp as everyone else did while placing the gear in his Geartlinger to seal it in before cranking the handle.
#11 Bang!
Kaito pulled the trigger revealing the hologram of the Maskmen before disappearing as the Zenkaiger's Geartlingers transformed into the Maskmen's personal weapons.
Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang! Ba-Bang!
Babababang!
Maskman!
The bots were amazed of what they were wielding, but Kaito noticed something causing his confusion.
Kaito: A staff? Mr. Chimon, didn't you have a sword?
Kenta: That's actually my weapon, the Masky Rod. I can see why we share it, because you and I are the opposite colors of each other.
Kaito: Wait, so that means-…
Kaito turned to see Juran holding the Masky Blade as he began to shout from excitement.
Juran: Awesome! I have this sweet sword! Now this is what I'm talking about!
Takeru: Don't swing it around aimlessly, treat it as if it's the sword you normally use.
Kaito quickly turned blue from the sight while muttering "dang it" to himself. As they continued to observe their arsenals, the rest made their own comments and questioning about it.
Vroon: How do I use this blue stick?
Gaon: This is such a cute toy! I'm so happy to have this!
Magine: H-How does t-this ribbon work a-again? Mmm~?
Akira: Oh gosh, if only we trained them beforehand...
Haruka: And it's not a toy!
Momoko: We'll show you five how our arsenals work during battle.
Takeru: That's right, Sarp is weaken so this is a perfect timing to finish it off.
Juran quickly stepped up with confidence in his stance while giving a thumbs up.
Juran: Got it old man, let's take it down before it recovers!
As everyone nodded as they yelled "right", Takeru looked away for a moment to whisper too himself saying "I'm not that old..." before both teams ran towards Sarp as it hissed at them. Before Sarp could unsheathed its bones, it was stopped when Haruka and Gaon threw and wrapped their Masky Rotors around both of its wrist. Both ran the opposite sides from each other to force Sarp to spread its arms wide before Akira and Vroon leaped to smack its body with their Masky Tonfas. Sarp's ribcage began to extend but stopped when Momoko and Magine wrapped their Masky Ribbon around its body to squeeze its body before Kenta and Kaito swung their Masky Rod aiming at its legs and neck causing Sarp to fall on its knees. As Sarp looked back up, it saw Takeru and Juran run towards it with their Masky Blades to slice its head off causing it to fly off to the distance. After landing, its head rolled on the ground while both teams breathed heavy catching their breaths before acknowledging their victory.
Kaito: We did it, we actually did it!
Both teams quickly cheered while some high fived each other and hugged one another including Gaon and Juran but stopped when both bots realized what they were doing before forcefully letting each other go with disgust. Their celebration shortly lasted when a bright light flashed from Sarp's neck causing its spine to greatly extend lifting the head to the sky as it began to grow larger. From witnessing its growth, both teams ran the opposite way before multiple rib cages began to sprout from the top to bottom. After making it to a safe distance, the ten looked back to see Sarp's large head open its eyes to reveal a snake like pupil before its tongue flickered. Sarp began to stretch its neck to show off its giant skeleton snake body to roar at the sky causing the ground to rumble.
Juran: You have got to be freakin kidding me!
Akira: We were too quick to celebrate!
Takeru: We were, who knew that Sarp would evolve like this. We need to stop it before it makes its way to town!
Kaito: Right! We'll hold it off while you guys summon your mechas!
Takeru: Got it, we won't take long!
The Maskmen began to run the other way while the bots flipped their gears to the opposite side before sealing it back in. They began to crank the handle until they stopped allowing the Geartlinger to begin its announcement.
Big Bang!
After pulling the trigger, the four began to grow while changing appearances before Kaito leaped onto the end of Juran's snout.
Go! Go! Go-Go Go!
Zenkai Juran!
Zenkai Gaon!
Zenkai Magine!
Zenkai Vroon!
As Sarp was making its way to town, the four charged towards it to tackle it down. After quickly recovering, it hissed at them before quickly slithering towards Juran's body to wrap around him. Kaito aimed for its eye before pulling the trigger causing it to screech from pain while starting to squeeze tighter.
Juran: That didn't help! It tightened up!
After it finished screeching, Vroon honked his horn before crashing into its rib cage while Gaon leaped on top of Juran's back to bite Sarp's neck to throw it off.
Kaito: Good thinking you two!
Juran: Yeah, try to harm me more why don't you...
Vroon: Whoops, sorry Juran!
Gaon: Quit your complaining, it's either that or Magine using her dragon's breath...
After Sarp leaned back up, Magine swooped down to tackle it causing the both to wrestle. Sarp quickly unhinged its jaw to bite near her neck causing her to make a small yelp.
Magine: Y-You bastard! T-Take this!
She then leaned near Sarp's spine to blow fire before yelling "Mmm~MYSTIC FLAME!" engulfing it into flames. It quickly squirmed from pain as it let Magine go before the rest met up with her.
Kaito: Okay guys, let's finish this!
Before Kaito could crank the handle, Sarp began to yell in a screechy howl causing the fallen bones to vibrate confusing the Zenkaigers. Suddenly, the bones began to extend their sizes before forming back together preparing their weapons.
Vroon: Oh man, this doesn't look good!
Magine: T-They're big now! How are we going to deal with them when we're in this form?
Kaito: Damn it, I'm not sure but I know that we can handle them! Don't worry guys, we can do this!
Gaon: Right! What Kaito said!
Juran: I have a bad feeling about this, but let's do our best...!
The bots began to charge towards the skeletons while Sarp extinguish the flames before recovering. But, before it could; a humanoid mech stepped forward to face Sarp as it heard "Complete! Great Five!" from the cockpit. Sarp hissed before leaping towards the Great Five to bite, but they caught it by the jaws before throwing it back. The Great Five grabbed wings attached to the left arm to reveal a sword to swing. The Great Five swung the sword, but Sarp quickly caught it with its mouth before extending its tail to stab the mecha. The Great Five quickly blocked the attack with their shield before pulling back their sword.
Momoko: Sarp is too quick for the Great Five sir!
Takumi: We can handle it, just one swing to its neck and it'll die!
The Great Five swung its sword once more aiming for Sarp's neck, but it missed when Sarp ducked to slither towards the Great Five to wrap around the mechs body preventing it to move any further.
Kenta: It's no good sir! We can't move!
Haruka: It's squeezing tight! We need to shake it off!
Meanwhile, Magine breathed fire while flying above the army of skeletons torching them until another set of skeletons threw bolas at her to entangle her wings together. As Magine crashed, the same skeletons were running towards her until Vroon crashed over them causing their bones to scatter.
Vroon: Magine! Are you okay?!
Magine: Y-Yeah, just a little stuck here!
Before Vroon knew it, two Skeletons snuck behind him to stick their spears on his back tires.
Vroon: OUCH! That hurts!
Vroon tried to escape by trying to accelerate, but failed to move while the skeletons were trying to push him down. Kaito took notice after shooting at the skeletons near him.
Kaito: Vroon! Magine! Juran, both of them are in trouble!
Juran: Really? Because so are we!
Juran continued to use his tail to slash the skeletons that was surrounding them while Kaito shot more bullets at them failing to do any more damage.
Kaito: Damn it! Where's Gaon? Gaon! Gaon!
As Kaito continued to call out Gaon's name, he stopped when he heard his voice.
Gaon: Kaito! A little help please!
He turned to see Gaon's legs being tied up by the bolas while being stomped by the skeletons as Gaon kept yelling "ow" from each hit.
Kaito: That's it! You creeps are not going to get away with this! It's time for you jerks to pick on someone your own size!
As a skeleton was aiming to grab hold of Kaito, he managed to dodge the skeleton by jumping off from Juran to quickly flip his Sentai Gear the opposite side before sealing it back in. He quickly rotated the handle before it spoke up for its announcement.
Big Bang!
Kaito: I hope that this works!
After Kaito pulled the trigger, it continued the announcement while the four bots began to glow causing the four to escape from the skeleton's grasp.
Zenkai Combine!
As a jingle began to play, Gaon on the left side was staring at Juran on the right side, same thing for Magine and Vroon in the same position. They began to struggle trying to move but couldn't.
Juran: What the heck?!
Gaon: What's going on? I can't move my body!
Magine: I-I'm scared! Mmm~!
Vroon: Me too, I think that I read about this somewhere! I think it's called Sleep Paralysis!
The bots continued to struggle until a large hologram of Kaito's hero suit appeared causing the two separate parties to come closer together as they were rearranging their bodies to combine into one another.
Ka-Klank!
Zenkai Juran. Zenkai Gaon.
Ka-Klank!
Zenkai Vroon. Zenkai Magine.
Gaon and Juran began to form together into a large mech before revealing the head as they carried Juran's tail as a sword and a shield.
ZenkaiOh~! JuraGaon!
Magine and Vroon did the same thing but with Magine's wings on their back and Vroon's wheels on their legs holding his pickaxe.
ZenkaiOh~! VrooMagine!
Meanwhile, Kaito had his eyes closed but opened it to see that he was still falling.
Kaito: No! No! No! What the heck! Nooooaaaaahhhhhhh!
Before Kaito could hit the ground, he vanished by teleporting inside JuraGaon falling face first causing him to groan from pain for a moment before picking himself up.
Kaito: O~w, that hu~rt. Where am I? Did I actually transform into a robot?!
Kaito quickly jumped from being startled when he heard Gaon and Juran's voice echo.
Gaon: WHAT THE HELL~?! WHY AM I LIKE THIS WITH YOU OF ALL PEOPLE!
Juran: Oh, don't give me that! As if I want to be like this with you! This feels totally gross!
Kaito: Juran? Gaon? Is that you?
Gaon: Kaito! Are you inside us?! Oh, I'm so glad that you're protected inside me!
Juran: Weirdo, nobody ever says that! Kaito, how the hell did this happen to us?!
Kaito: I-I don't know! I was trying to turn big like you guys but then I guess this happened!
Juran: Wait, so you're the one that made us like this?! Kaito you bastard! Just wait until this is over! Even Magine and Vroon isn't having a great time with this!
JuraGaon then turned to see VrooMagine grabbing hold of their head.
Magine: T-This is weird! T-This is weird! T-This is c-c-c-completely weird!
Vroon: It's fine Magine, let's look at the bright side! At least we're closer than before!
Kaito: Even Magine and Vroon combined?! Woah! This is awesome! We have our own mechs now!
Juran: No! Not awesome because we have to be like this!
Suddenly, herd of skeletons began to run towards the two mechs preparing their weapons.
Gaon: Pay attention you big idiot!
JuraGaon used their shield to block an attack before slicing the skeleton down while VrooMagine dodged a couple of swings until they used their pickaxe to take a skeleton down. VrooMagine began to screech their tires before running past the herd to tackle the skeletons that comes their way while JuraGaon continued to block the attacks before using their sword to slash multiple skeletons all at once. They then turned to see the Great Five being squeezed by Sarp causing Kaito to gasp.
Kaito: The Maskmen need our help! Vroon! Magine! Do you two think that you can handle the skeletons on your own?!
VrooMagine continued to parry their pickaxe with the skeleton's sword before responding.
Vroon: We got it covered!
Magine: JUST MAKE IT QUICK!
As the Great Five continued to struggle, Sarp quickly screeched from pain before letting go when JuraGaon slashed at its spine.
Akira: They saved us, I thought that we were a goner for a moment!
Haruka: Thanks for the help but be careful, Sarp is agile against mechs!
Kaito: Got it! Watch out you two, that means it's pretty-!
Suddenly, Sarp began to slither towards JuraGaon to bite while Kaito yelled out "FAST!" They managed to stop it when they wielded Juran's sword to catch the bite.
Juran: Not today you creepy freak!
After they threw Sarp off of the sword, the two mechs prepared their weapons as it hissed one last time.
Takeru: Kaito! Let's take this chance by finishing it! Two attacks is a better chance in finishing it than one!
Kaito: Right! Let's do this!
Kaito started to rotate the handle of his Geartlinger once more causing JuraGaon's sword to spark.
Kikai! Super Zenkai Time!
While the JuraGaon was powering up, the Great Five placed their sword back inside their shield before unsheathing it once more to enhance it with aura causing it to glow.
Takeru: You're finished Sarp!
The Great Five began to levitate while aura surrounded them before flying towards it as the Maskmen yelled "Final Aura Burst!" while JuraGaon began to run alongside with them.
Kaito: Crap! I need a name for this attack!
Kaito thought about it for a second until he snapped his fingers.
Kaito: I got it! Juran Sword, Full Moon Crush!
As the two mechs did their finale slashes, Sarp managed to dodge one but the next slash connected; causing its neck being chopped off once again. As Sarp's head began to roll, the skeletons began to dismantle causing VrooMagine to both sigh from relief. Meanwhile, skeletons from different areas began to scatter into pieces. Feather formed a smirk before looking at the distance.
Feather: They managed to do it; they finally killed the bastard.
Later, both teams reverted back into their normal clothing before Kaito and Takeru shook each other's hands.
Takeru: We would like to humbly thank you five for helping us take down that fiend.
Haruka: You kids really helped save the day, we're honored to meet you all.
Momoko: By any means, we would love to invite you all for a celebration dinner tonight.
Kaito: That sounds great, but we have to keep travelling. Maybe next time when we see each other again we could have dinner together!
Kenta: Whenever you like young man, we owe you so we'll have a big feast the next time you come visit this side of N-City!
Akira: Yeah, also where are you guys travelling next? I've been wanting to see a belly dance performance!
Kaito was confused until he looked down to see that he was still wearing his belly dancer uniform causing Juran to laugh hysterically.
Juran: I-I'M SORRY BUT I COULDN'T HOLD IT IN ANY LONGER! HAHAHAHAHA!
Gaon: D-Don't laugh at Kaito you idiot! It's not funny! You're embarrassing him!
Kaito's face began to change bright red before running towards the tent's direction.
Kaito: I FORGOT MY CLOTHES IN THE CHANGING ROOM!
The Bots began to follow him while Juran continued to laugh.
Vroon: There's nothing to be afraid about Kaito! It's not embarrassing at all! I promise!
Magine: I-It's a little embarrassing…
Gaon: You idiots are not helping!
