(sees previews for Season 2) Ha! Called it way before the show did! Dino Fury Cycle is gonna be in Season 2, ladies and gents! (spins in my chair) Whether it was psychic abilities or sheer dumb luck though is up to you. (Sees how Santaura awakens) The look in Santaura's eyes as she wakes up, though? That's enough to give any diehard fan nightmares for a week. (Shiver) Anywhoozles, before I continue on with the show actual, I may as well deliver a little bit of inspiration I got from several sources. One source is the episode "Speak No Evil" from My Life as a Teenage Robot, one of my all time favorite cartoons back in the late 2000's, the second from MLP Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks for a musical showcase/competition setting for this episode and the Sporix Beast's motif of hypnosis via song like a siren, and the third will be Japanese Toku songs as Rowan is gonna be singing in Japanese for this episode. I'm still in a quandary about if I want Rowan to be the waifu of Ollie or Javi. But hopefully I can get something with the next love triangle centered episode. Seriously, I do intend on completing this season and doing Season 2. But I also have real life to worry about as well, plus I watch the episodes as I write the chapters so I can follow along and insert my changes when needed. That's why some episodes had more changes than usual from the original content, so y'all understand my delays, right? (squee) Anyway, let's do this!

Disclaimers: I don't own Power Rangers, as it is owned by Hasbro as of May 1, 2018.


(Rowan's POV)

Since the confrontation between me and Void Knight, I had started training harder than ever before. His words had opened up a whole new can of worms that I had to dive into unexpectedly. As I trained, I thought over the past week's events.

(Flashback)

I had gotten on the video chatroom with RJ and given him a status update, to which he had taken the chance to do a spiritual search around Area 62.

Once he had finished his search, he reported back to me immediately: "You were right, Rowan. Casey's nowhere near Area 62. It was another tiger spirit I was sensing. If this Void Knight is actually Whiger, then it could prove a theory I've been working on."

"What theory?" I was confused about his words.

He pulled out a sheet of paper that he had been using, explaining his theory to me through a diagram. "We know the animal spirits are way out of counting range. Anyone can have the same spirit, and each spirit is bound to their respective user. But therein lies my theory: If one animal spirit is no longer bound to its user, it could be roaming about with the memories of its former user, maybe for centuries, until it finds a new suitable host like your enemy. You said Void Knight has been around for thousands of years, so I'm betting he could have been the new host that was found for Whiger's spirit after the sacrifice, but Void is holding both his memories and Whiger's memories."

"Something like that is bound to override one set of memories or the other, possibly with no in-between." I followed along perfectly, knowing exactly what he was talking about.

"Exactamundo." He confirmed my thoughts.

(End flashback)

I could see where RJ was going with the theory, but I had my doubts on it. If Whiger was in the area, then this would be a good chance to try and find out why he came all the way here.

I checked my watch and stopped my practice before grabbing my phone and scrolling through my music before selecting my chosen song, A Thousand Years, and taking a breath, getting into the beat of it before I started singing:

"~Heart beats fast, colors and promises

How to be brave, how can I love

When I'm afraid to fall

But watching you stand alone

All of my doubts suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer…

I have died everyday waiting for you

Darling, don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more...~"

I smiled as I finished the small snippet before I heard the girls cheering me on, and I looked at Amelia and Izzy behind me as they had come up when I was into my song.

"Girl, that was so good! You are so gonna win the competition!" Izzy told me excitedly.

Amelia nodded and grinned brightly. "I can't believe you can actually sing like that!"

I smiled and nodded a bit. "I've been practicing my vocals since I was little, being taught by some of the Rangers who can sing, even Levi Weston. I've gotten to where I'm at Mezzo-Soprano level, but it's not really a big deal."

The girls looked at me in shock, their jaws agape, and I thought I said something wrong. "What?"

"You… you trained your voice… with THE Levi Weston??" Izzy almost screamed in amazement.

"Yeah. And he's gonna be a judge at the music festival, along with his brother Brody." I blankly stated.

Unfortunately, that only caused the fire I had inadvertently started to explode; I suddenly had to cover my ears and cringed as both of my female teammates started squealing loudly and jumping in place excitedly as they screamed, "OH MY GOSH, OH MY GOSH, OH MY GOSH, OH MY GOSH, OH MY GOSH, OH MY GOSH!!!!!"

I looked at them sideways. "I'm guessing you two are big fans, huh?"

Izzy looked at me with a smile. "Are you kidding?! Levi Weston is one of the top five best young country singers in the world according to BuzzBlast!!"

"And he's super cute too!" Amelia grinned and smiled. "I have always wanted to do an article for BuzzBlast on Levi, but I haven't gotten the chance to actually meet him cause he's always on tour!"

I shrugged a bit. "Well, it's gonna be your lucky day to get an interview with him." I checked my watch again and my eyes widened. "Oh shoot! I'm supposed to be on stage in five minutes to rehearse with Javi!" I looked at the girls. "Come on! If we hurry, we can make it before the boys!"

They nodded to me and together we teleported to the park as quickly as possible, appearing behind a tree and running over to the stage where everything was being set up, not noticing who was watching us the whole time.

(Mucus' POV)

Big boss Void Knight was pretty cranky again. He lost his big bruiser Boomtower and he still didn't have enough Sporix Cells for his project, so I got out of dodge as fast as I could, landing right near the humans and spotting the Rangers in the process. "Uh-oh!" I took cover behind a bush, flattening myself to my puddle shape as I saw the girls running past me. "Huh. They sure seem like they're in a rush."

I went to crawl after them, but I stopped when I heard a familiar sound nearby and looked over to see a new Sporix Cell about ready to hatch! "Hello there. You could be a great friend to have." I reformed and snuck over, grabbing the Cell and teleporting away before any human saw me.

Landing back in the base, I dashed over to Void Knight quickly. "Hey, boss! Looks like we've got a new monster to help us!" I set the Cell down and stepped back, watching with Void as the Cell transformed into a mermaid looking creature.

"Ah, it's good to be out of that shrunken form!" The Beast stretched out and cracked her neck, a sigh escaping her mouth. "65,000,000 years does no wonders for the body."

I could tell the boss wasn't convinced because he looked at the new monster. "What do we call you?"

The monster looked at him and giggled before she sat down. "My name's Syrenix. I bring all the boys to their doom with my lovely hypnotic tunes!"

"Ooh, you're a singer!" I went to her excitedly. "That's a good thing because I know of an event that would benefit from your song and maybe get the boy Rangers on our side!"

"Hmph. So the silly little Rafkonian is awake and in this city? No matter. I can take him and his little team out. And I'll do it in the most subtle way possible." Syrenix declared as she got down and snapped her fingers, changing into a blonde haired human teenage girl, a smirk on her rosy lips now. "They're gonna wish they hadn't crossed me."

Void Knight seemed to be interested in the idea as I could hear his growl of thought as he looked away. "If we do get the male Rangers on our side, we can retrieve the Sporix easier…" He looked up at us and nodded. "Execute your plan! And you'd better not fail."

We nodded and headed off to the park again.

(Rowan's POV)

I had managed to make it to practice just as the boys got there and we set up for our practice as I did a few vocal warm-ups to make sure I wasn't lacking, spotting Jane and J-Borg on scene as they were talking with Amelia and Javi, more than likely making sure the former could get an interview with Levi while also reporting on the festival.

I got down and heard a voice call out to me, "Think fast, Rowan!"

"Ack!" I narrowly caught the water bottle thrown at me and turned to glare over my shoulder. "Seriously, Ollie?! You could have given me a concussion if that-" I stopped myself when I saw two familiar faces and smiled happily; it was the Romero brothers, Aiden aka Levi Weston and Brody, also known as Ninja Steel Gold and Red Rangers respectfully.

"Brody! Levi!" I ran to the two and gave them a big hug, feeling them reciprocate it. "Man, it's so good to see you two! How've you been since the last Ranger picnic?"

Brody shrugged nonchalantly. "Been helping to keep an eye on any trouble across the dimensions. Surprised there hasn't been much for us to do since the last battle against Odius though."

Levi chuckled lightly. "Hey, if I never see her again, it'll be too soon."

I chuckled a bit before seeing the team coming over. "Oh yeah!" I looked at the two. "You guys have got to meet the new Rangers. Just to warn you, the girls are huge fans of the great Levi Weston."

Brody snickered slightly. "Fans in high places and higher callings. Surprised that it hasn't gotten old yet."

"Hey!" Levi grabbed Brody in a headlock and the brothers started to have a play fight.

I chuckled lightly and saw another old friend come over, a ninja like the two boys and a Ranger Kid like myself, but having a different power set as a Power Rider thanks to what her family friend Cam had come up with: Kelsea Bradley, aka Power Rider Shinobi.

Kelsea watched the boys and shook her head slightly. "Those two have had so much time to catch up and yet they still act like they're kids."

I rolled my eyes good-naturedly. "Typical Romero bros."

Luckily the boys recovered in time to get to meet the team, Amelia and Izzy having a hard time holding their excitement in the process.

I headed to the stage to get ready for rehearsal when I accidentally bumped into someone. "Oof!"

"Whoops, sorry about that!" The blonde in front of me said politely.

"Oh, don't worry. It's okay." I looked at her and tilted my head curiously. "I don't think I've ever seen you around here before. Are you new in town?"

"I am, actually. I was trying to explore and got a little lost before I arrived." She explained before extending her hand to me. "I'm Serena."

"My name's Rowan." I shook her hand politely. "So are you gonna be signing up for the competition?"

Serena nodded. "Yeah, I mean my voice isn't that great, but I'm not afraid to try."

"It's better to try your very best than to not have the confidence to succeed." I told her, mentally thanking RJ for the lesson.

Serena nodded a bit before we heard the calling sound for the rehearsal.

"Good luck up there!" I wished her brightly.

Serena nodded to me. "Same to you!" She headed to the stage, and I could swear that for a moment, her eyes changed from sea blue to a shimmering pink color before shifting back.

I raised an eyebrow suspiciously and decided to keep a close eye on her. No time to worry about her right now. I had to get ready to sing.

I got on the stage as Javi had just finished tuning his guitar and I noticed Ollie taking a seat at the piano… oddly enough. "I didn't know you played piano."

Ollie chuckled lightly. "Took lessons on a few classical instruments for five years."

Javi nodded to him. "Nice. Maybe the three of us should do a concert for the team sometime."

I nodded in agreement, though I couldn't help but fall into thought about how much things had changed since everything started.

My first crush since junior high had been and still was Javi, but… nowadays I was starting to grow a little crush on Ollie too. It was confusing. This was probably the first time I've ever had a crush on two guys, but… who could I choose? I honestly felt like Bella Swan from Twilight.

Suddenly, I got snapped out of my thoughts by the sounds of screaming and I joined Ollie and Javi in peeking out as we all saw Hengemen terrorizing everyone while Brody, Levi, and Kelsea we're getting the people to safety.

The rest of the team joined us backstage as I sighed. "This'll hold off my nerves for a while. For now..." I pulled back and readied my Morpher. "It's Morphin' Time!"

We all did our insta-morph, dashing out and starting to battle the Hengemen.

I flipped and kicked a couple of Hengemen, knocking them back. "You guys really know how to crash a party!" I pulled out a Boost Key. "Muscle Dino Key, activate!" I loaded it in and gained the armor, charging through the Hengemen like a rampaging toro.

The others had to equip various boosters as well before a vocalizing sound went off, stopping Ollie and Javi in their tracks.

"What is that?" Ollie listened to the music, seeming entranced by it.

"I don't know, but it sounds beautiful…" Javi replied.

Zayto seemed unfazed by the music. "I know that music! Guys, cover your ears!" He covered his ears quickly.

Javi and Ollie weren't listening now as both of their eyes flashed behind their helmets as I got a bad feeling.

Suddenly, they turned on us as we had to fight them too!

I struggled against Ollie. "Ollie, stop! This isn't like you!" I didn't want to hurt either of them.

Amelia was helping me against Ollie. "What's the matter with you?!"

Ollie blocked our attacks and launched us clear across the area.

With Izzy and Zayto, they weren't faring well either.

Izzy blocked and kicked Javi. "Knock it off, Javi!"

"It's not his fault!" Zayto shouted to her as he blocked a sword slash. "He's under mind control!" He got kicked back to us, as did Izzy.

Ollie and Javi stood together as if they were waiting for us to move.

We got on defense, but then we heard a laugh as a new Sporix Beast walked over and stood by the hypnotized boys before she spoke to us, "How'd you like the tunes, Rangers? Pretty amazing, wouldn't you say?"

"Syrenix!" Zayto seemed furious about seeing her again.

"You know her?" Izzy looked at Zayto in shock.

Zayto nodded. "She was one of the Sporix Beasts who tried to be better than the others, but her evil nature took over!"

Syrenix laughed brightly. "Sure did give you a run for your life, huh Zay?"

I glared at Syrenix. "Hey, back off and let the boys go!"

Syrenix took notice of me. "Oh, aren't you a feisty little dragon? Tell me, which of these two have you been fawning over?" She placed her arms around Javi and Ollie teasingly.

I was taken aback by the question. "Huh??"

"Oh, come on! You have so much to learn about love, kid!" Syrenix chuckled. "It's not as easy as counting. Emotions run high, your mind goes blank, yada yada yada."

"SHUT UP!!!" That was the breaking point for me as I ran at her.

Javi stopped me and held me in place as I struggled against him. But I wasn't ready for Ollie to come up from behind and slash me in the back.

I flew forward and hit the ground, rolling back to my feet just as quickly, but it looked like Syrenix had a new target, i.e. Amelia and Izzy.

"Ugh, those two girls are so annoying with their voices! Maybe I should change it up!" She readied a blast to strike them.

"Heads up, guys!" I ran over and took the shot, demorphing and hitting the ground as a ball of light flew from my mouth and was absorbed into Syrenix's necklace.

"Wow! I didn't expect yellow to take the hit, but good thing she did!" Syrenix laughed brightly, now sounding a lot more like me.

"Rowan!" Amelia ran over to me and helped me up. "Are you okay?"

I groaned as I nodded and responded to her, not realizing I was now speaking Japanese until I heard my own voice now. "元気です。(I'm fine.)" I stopped as I heard the voice coming from my lips. "え?それは...私の声ですか?!(Huh? Is… is that MY voice?!)"

Amelia looked at me with shock, judging by the way she let go. "Whoa! Whatever Syrenix did messed up your voice!"

Syrenix laughed brightly. "Yep! Now she can't communicate in English with you kids!"

Izzy charged at Syrenix. "Give her voice back!" She went to slash, but an attack from Javi knocked her back and made her forcefully demorph.

Zayto ran over to us. "This is too much for us! We have to retreat!" He went to use the Morpher to teleport us away, but got smacked into us by Void Knight.

"I don't think so!" Void approached Syrenix and looked at her. "Good work, Syrenix. Maybe it'll be a good idea to keep you around after all."

Syrenix curtsied politely. "My pleasure, Void Knight. Now let's see how they like being drowned!" She got ready to shoot another attack, this one looking like it was gonna send a wave at us.

All of a sudden, vines erupted from the ground and tied Syrenix up, disrupting her attack. "No!"

"Think fast!" Kelsea flipped into the fray, hitting Void Knight before landing by us and making a ninja sign as she summoned lightning to strike the two villains.

Brody and Levi jumped in as well, landing by us and standing by Kelsea as they did a quick ninja teleport, getting all seven of us out of there.

(Amelia's POV)

As soon as we emerged in the base, Solon was right by us. "Is everyone alright?"

I nodded to her. "Yeah, we're good. But Rowan's only able to speak Japanese now."

"What I'm worried about is how are we going to beat her?" Izzy frowned out of concern. "I mean she has two of our friends and she took Ro's voice."

Brody smiled a bit. "Well, let the record show that it's not just the older teams of Rangers that Rowan knows." He pulled out a red ninja star as Levi did the same, but having a gold one instead.

"And that her own friends in the next generation of Rangers can have their own powers." Kelsea added on, showing a small gourd off.

Rowan didn't look like she was happy as she was sulking nearby.

I looked at her and went to her. "Hey, you can't give up, Ro. What about the competition?"

She just pushed me back slightly and sighed. "あ、使用は何ですか?英語が話せない場合、どうやってモンスターを倒すのを手伝うのですか?(Ah, what's the use? If I'm not able to speak English, how am I going to help beat the monster?)" She pouted slightly and went to her secluded corner as she whimpered, "これは絶望的です... (This is hopeless…)"

Solon seemed to notice how upset she was and looked at the rest of us "I'll go talk to her. I'm possibly the only one who can understand her right now." She went to Rowan's side.

I looked at the others. "Zayto, if you know enough about Syrenix, why don't you fill them in? I'll see if I can help Solon." I walked over to them.

(Zayto's POV)

I nodded to Amelia as she walked off before turning to the computer and pulling up an image of Syrenix as I started explaining to the others: "Okay, Syrenix is basically like a siren from the mythology of the Grecians. Her hypnotic voice can lure other men to her side and those golden orbs she shot out steals the voices of women and allows her to speak in their voice."

I noticed out of the corner of my eye that Levi was frowning slightly as he spoke, "Almost reminds me of the time that Tynamon stole my voice to use the Fusion Star. But my voice was only swapped with his. It wasn't stored."

Brody seemed contemplative as he looked at me. "Does Syrenix seem to have any weaknesses? Anything that might give us an edge?"

I thought it over and got an idea. "Actually, I think so." I typed in some commands and brought up a scan of Syrenix. "Her vocals are a major factor in her abilities. The stronger the waves, the more powerful she gets. But I have noticed that a person with a particularly strong singing voice can cancel out her own waves."

Izzy nodded, seeming to follow my logic. "Like turning up the volume to cancel out waves of equal decibels."

I smiled at her. "Bingo. If we can use that to our advantage, we get Javi and Ollie back and we destroy Syrenix's necklace in the process."

(Amelia's POV)

As I rounded the corner, I saw Solon attempting to comfort her and that reminded me that Rowan had told me about losing her mom at a young age. I knew exactly how she felt from losing my parents. It had been hard for me to recover from it all, but with the others helping me out, I felt like they were family to me too.

I smiled and knelt down by Rowan. "Hey, you know, sometimes you help us out with whatever makes us feel like crap now. I think it's about time we did the same for you. You're a big part of the team just as much as any of the rest of us."

Solon nodded to her in agreement with me. "Exactly, Rowan. Is all really as lost as you think it to be?"

She looked up at us, seeming to recognize how we were speaking to her. It really was like passing on a lesson from student to teacher.

I nodded and sat crosslegged. "Remember what you guys told me when Mack was visiting? Sometimes luck isn't in plain sight. It's all in your mind. You just need to adapt and overcome."

"And the only way you'll do that is if you show them how good of a singer you are, Japanese speaking or not," Solon added on.

Rowan thought it over before she nodded to us. "うん。 あなたたちは正しいです。 この挫折のために私はただあきらめることはできません。(Yeah. You guys are right. I can't give up just because of this setback.)"

"And you don't have to." Brody came over to us with a smile on his face. "We got a plan to stop Syrenix."

(Kelsea's POV)

Once we got back to the stage where the competition was gonna be, we got ready for everything with Zayto, Izzy, and Amelia taking cover in the trees as Brody and Levi started getting ready for the show again, Rowan getting her dress adjusted on stage.

I was in cover with the group, having had changed into my ninja uniform and blending in with the leaves while I peeked through the trees. "Okay, everything's looking good. Now we just need the rats in our cage."

Amelia looked through the binoculars as she checked around the area, finally spotting the targets. "Targets sighted." She passed the binoculars to me.

I took them and looked through them, seeing the blonde form of Serena/Syrenix and Mucus standing near them as they had Hengemen setting up sound equipment. "Oh crud... good thing you advised earplugs, Zayto." I looked at him. "They got stereo equipment being set up."

Zayto nodded and sent the flashing signal to the others, and I checked below, seeing that Rowan and the boys had gotten the message and gotten their earplugs on just in time.

Right on cue, Syrenix started singing, her vocals starting to hypnotize the populace around her except for us.

"Now!" I hit the remote control play button for Rowan's stereo and her favorite Toku song Almighty started playing.

(Rowan's POV)

(Cue song: ALMIGHTY - Kamen no Yakusoku)

Showtime for my vocals. I started bouncing my head to the music and timed it perfectly before I let loose.

"~The saber in your hand

Is a pen to write it down

Words to save this world

Dare ni mo mirarezu saku hana wa mushou no ai

Hisoyakana yasashi sa wa hitoshirezu saite chiru

Kamen ni kakureta namida wo misezu ni

ALMIGHTY hon ni kakareta chie to yuuki wo tsukande

ALMIGHTY shinjita hou e ugokaserusa mirai

Hito wa itsumo monogatari o umidasu no sa~"

I could see that my voice was delivering the power needed because Syrenix was screaming and covering her ears in pain as she hollered, "Hengemen, help me!"

The Hengemen started advancing on the stage, but the others dropped in at that moment, Brody, Levi, and Kelsea all using their Ninja techniques as Zayto, Izzy, and Amelia slashed down the Hengemen.

Syrenix growled before she looked at Ollie and Javi and pushed them forward. "What are you waiting for?! Get her!!"

They started at me, but were blocked by Kelsea clones as I started the next verse.

"~Kodoku no kuroi jiden egakareta eichi ga

Toki wo koe kataru toki yakusoku no kachi wo shiru

Seigi wo tsuranuki kieteyu ku toki mo

Tamashī no oku ni hisonda himitsu wo akeru tobira wa...~"

We were right on the dot with this plan. My powerful Japanese singing broke through the spell on everyone and freed them all as I went into the grand finale.

"~ALMIGHTY wasuresara reta kimi ga hiraku unmei no hon

Torimodose heiwa na sekai yami no naka no eiyū wo yobe

ALMIGHTY hon ni kakareta chie to yuuki wo tsukande

ALMIGHTY shinjita hou e ugokaserusa mirai

Hito wa itsumo monogatari o umidasu no sa

The saber in your hand

Is a pen to write it down

Words to save this world~"

When I hit the high note, the shell on Syrenix's necklace shattered and sent the ball back to my body, allowing me to finish the song with English.

Syrenix grunted as she hit the ground. "Crap baskets!!"

We all gathered around as I sighed in relief. "Finally I'm back to my old voice again."

"And we got the boys back!" Izzy hugged her brother happily.

Syrenix growled angrily. "Damnit, you brats! Hengemen!!!" She summoned more Hengemen to assist her.

I looked at the group and took the lead. "I think we all know what time it is."

Zayto started the call. "It's Morphin' Time!"

Brody and Levi summoned their Battle Morphers and their stars. "Power Stars, lock in! Ready! Ninja Spin!" They spun their stars and morphed into their Ranger suits, which looked similar enough except for Levi's cowboy looks.

"Power of the Ninja!"

"Rhythm of the Ninja!"

"Ninja Steel!" The boys posed in front of a red and gold smoke cloud.

Kelsea popped her gourd open and poured out a purple liquid that formed her Driver and star as she posed quickly. "Power Shuriken, lock in! Power Rider, Shuriken Spin!" She spun her star and threw her arms out as a scroll emerged and flew behind her, unfolding into a mechanical frog that spewed out smoke and a scarf that changed her into her armor, which was a purple ninja like Ranger suit, but more armored and with glowing visors. "Written as the heart of my blade, I am Power Rider Shinobi!" She posed in front of a purple smoke cloud.

"Dino Fury Key, activate! Link to Morphin' Grid!" The rest of us activated our keys and morphed into our suits as I started the roll call.

"Dragon!"

"Tyranno!"

"Ankylo!"

"Tricera!"

"Tiger!"

"Stego!"

"Dino Fury Power!" We all posed in front of various smoke cloud colors.

I stepped forward and twirled my Saber. "Power Rangers unite!" Together we posed among rainbow smoke clouds and explosions.

"Attack!" Syrenix sent the Hengemen at us.

We charged forward and started fighting the Hengemen, now with a more unified power boost.

Kelsea was flipping around and doing some fancy twists around the Hengemen before she pulled out a blue shard. "Let's see if this will help you boys cool off. Water Shard!" She locked in the shard and spun her Shuriken again, blue armor equipping to her as she maneuvered around and fired ice spikes at the Hengemen to knock them back, almost like it was real life waterbending. "Gonna be one messy clean up."

"Ninja Clone Star!" Brody cloned himself and battled several Hengemen at once, easily taking them out.

"Rockstorm Blast!" Levi shot off some lightning from his blade and electrocuted several more Hengemen.

Zayto, Izzy and Amelia, unleashed Chromafury Slashes that knocked out the rest of the Hengemen.

As for me, Javi, and Ollie, we had just knocked Syrenix back, all three of us pissed off at her now.

Syrenix growled at us. "If I can't control the boys and ruin you, I'll squash you all!!" She grew to Megazord size, as per usual.

I looked up and growled. "You're on! Dragon Shogun Zord, Battle Mode!" I immediately launched my prepped Key and let it combine with my Megazord before we all teleported in and linked the Chromafury Sabers in. "Linked! Dragon Shogun Zord: Battle Mode ready!"

"Let's pluck this fish's gills out!" Zayto shouted.

"Works for us!" I spoke for me and the other two before we got ready to fight.

"You brats are gonna hate my opera tones!" Syrenix let out a really high note that sent sparks out of the Megazord.

We stumbled around in the cockpit and grabbed our pedestals. "Whoa!" "AAH!"

(Kelsea's POV)

I rejoined my teammates and saw that Rowan and the others were getting beaten by just Syrenix's voice. "Uh-oh. Looks like they need backup."

Brody nodded to me. "Luckily we got just the thing to help kick butt."

He and Levi got their Zord Stars out. "Zord Stars, lock in! Ready! Ninja Spin!"

I nodded and ninja streaked to a faraway building to watch.

(Rowan's POV)

We were getting smacked around badly, almost as bad as Wolfsbane did to us.

Syrenix was about to come in for one last blow when she was suddenly knocked back by laser shots. "Ah! Ow!"

"What the?!" Amelia was confused about the sudden change.

Izzy saw what was up though. "Look over there!" She pointed out the two new arrivals.

It was the Bull Rider Megazord and the Lion Fire Megazords, both ready for action as Levi called to us, "Hey, guys. Thought we'd join the party."

I laughed brightly and used my comm to talk to them. "Right on time!"

Brody cracked his knuckles as he responded to us. "Let's turn this fish into sushi!"

"Thought you'd never ask!" I responded proudly before getting ready for action.

Syrenix was back on her feet and she saw the new Megazords. "Uh-oh! That's not good!"

Levi took the lead on the finisher. "Ninja Super Steel Blaster, Energized!" He locked and loaded the blaster. "Bull Rider Megazord, Rodeo Rapid Blast!" He pulled the trigger as his Megazord fired a barrage on Syrenix.

Brody went next as he shifted the Lion Fire Megazord to its Zord mode and rode atop it, delivering a direct slash. "Lion Fire Slash!"

I sheathed my Saber and held my hand up. "Mega Fury Saber! I grabbed the large Saber and twirled it readily. "Dragon Shogun Zord; Mega Saber Blitzkrieg!" The team all took a turn with a slash before I delivered the final slash, all of the attacks hitting home.

Syrenix screamed in pain. "NO!!! I don't wanna be a Cell again!!" She fell and exploded before we all posed the Megazords triumphantly.

I nodded and spoke with Brody in tandem; "Battle over! Rangers win!"

As soon as we all got to the ground, I scooped up the Cell and looked at the others. "Another Ranger victory."

(Amelia's POV)

After we had gotten the Sporix to the base and locked it away, we returned just in time for the next performance and quickly took our seats.

Jane walked up to the microphone and cleared her throat. "Well, despite the interruption earlier, I am happy to introduce Rowan Park, Javier Garcia, and Ollie Akana as our next performance!"

We clapped for the trio as the curtains pulled up to reveal all of them looking great as Ollie played the few piano notes needed before Rowan started to sing and Javi played along with them.

"~Heart beats fast, colors and promises

How to be brave, how can I love

When I'm afraid to fall

But watching you stand alone

All of my doubts suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer…

I have died everyday waiting for you

Darling, don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more..."

Javi then stepped forward and to our surprise, began to sing as well!

"~Time stands still, beauty in all she is

I will be brave, I will not let anything take away

What's standing in front of me

Every breath, every hour has come to this~"

Then he and Rowan started singing together as Ollie played the music for them.

"I have died everyday waiting for you

Darling, don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you

Time has brought your heart to me

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more...~"

They ended the song on a wonderful note and brought all of us to our feet in a standing ovation.

(Rowan's POV)

After the three of us won the trophy, I was talking with my dad and enjoying my victory when the others came over.

I smiled at the others and chuckled lightly. "Gotta admit, it felt super weird not to have my normal voice."

Zayto walked over and placed a hand on my shoulder. "But you didn't give up. When Amelia and Solon pointed out what you did already, you realized you should have known about it already."

Brody nodded as he and the other two ninjas came over. "You really have a tough head when it comes to the best of times, Ro. And that drive helps you with leadership. And everything else that comes with being a Ranger."

Dad smiled at me. "And it makes me a proud father to a junior Ranger." He ruffled my hair.

I smiled happily, not even caring about my pride blush coming out before I pointed out to the team, "But I'm still keeping out of romance for now! It's hard enough being a Ranger!"

We all shared a laugh at that, and I felt happy to be supported by my new family.


Ugh... finally... my first original chapter is done! I think my brain is fried from all the stress... I need a drink of chamomile tea... (rubs my head slightly) Anyway, let me know what y'all think of this chapter, and I'll update with the regular season as soon as I can.
