Lincoln sat on the ground, staring at the destroyed home. Covering his face, he was trying not to cry. He had the power. But, he couldn't protect his sisters.

Dodger was in a strange cocoon, and the Bandicoots and himself don't have a ride to find The Witch and his best friend who is a werewolf.

"Lincoln?"

The Kid Superhero look to see Coco sit by him with her brother sitting on the opposite side.

"We can't give up. If we do, she'll win and bring darkness into your world."

"I know...I can't fight Clyde. He's going to stop me if I try to stop The Witch. I'm just going to be in the way. Maybe Dodger was right."

"You're not alone in this fight. My brother and I are going to help. First, we need to help Dodger in this mess. There has to be a way to save him."

Aiming her tablet at the cocoon, Coco scanned it, and it showed life signs of the encased human. "He's alive. But it shows that he's in a coma."

The eyes of Lincoln at the word "coma" and cover his mouth. "That's not good. He only has time left. How can we save him?"

Crash went over to the kid, placing his metal hand on his shoulder. There was a sudden bright light that flashed. Coco reopened her eyes, and her jaw dropped at the sight of the two male species.

"Is everything okay? Why are you staring at me?"

"Lincoln, do you feel strange?" She asked.

Lincoln flexed his biceps. "I feel a lot...powerful. I feel different, too.

The Royal Woods Kid was a tall teen with a muscular body that his costume was fitting. "My suit is really tight."

The Female Bandicoot turned to her brother, who was back to himself. Looking back and forth at the two and piece together what happened.

"This is fantastic. Crash, you touched Lincoln and gave him your piece of the gem's power. Lincoln, put your hand on him.

Lincoln did, and he was back to his kid self while Crash was back to Mecha Bandicoot. "Awesome. You three can pass off energy to one another. Lincoln, touch the cocoon."

Walking to where Dodger was wrapped in. Placing his hand on it. Another flash of light, the three of them freak out as the cocoon had cracks of purple light seep out of it.

"Okay, Crash, your turn. Place your hand on it."

Shallowing the spit in his mouth, the Marsupial tip-toe to the cocoon and place both his hands on it. With a flash, cocoon had more cracks for Dodger to break free.

Lincoln closed his eyes and prayed. "Come on, Dodger."


Dodger found himself around the Command Center from Power Rangers. Looking around, he couldn't keep the smile off his face.

"Zordon's tube. The Viewing Globe. Why am I here?" He asked himself.

"We brought you here."

Turning around, he was met by two men wearing black clothing. One was Asian and the other was African American.

"Oh my greatness! Walter Jones and Johnny Yong Bosch!

"Who?" Both men asked.

Slapping his forehead, Dodger gave them a cheesy smile. "Hi Zack. Hi Adam. What are you doing here?"

"We're here because you have the power of the Black Power Ranger. As the former holders, we must make sure that the power is in safe hands" said Zack, who was walking around the hero.

Images of past battles Dodger had popped up around the three men.

"Being a Power Ranger takes courage and self-sacrifice" said Adam. "Looking at your history, it does look like the power is in good hands."

Dodger smiled at the statement. The battles of recent is just a preview of what could come when he meets Ripto. He felt proud that two Power Rangers saw the hero inside him.

Zack and Adam held out their hand to him, showing gold coins. They merge together to form the Power Morpher with the coin inside the center.

"Take this. With our powers, you'll stop the evil you're fighting against" Adam smiled.

"I don't know what to say. T-Thank you. It means a lot."

Dodger shakes Adam's hand, followed by Zack. "Thank you, Dodger, and may the power protect you."

With a flash of light, the world went to black.

"Dodger? Come on, Dodger. We could use your help."

Opening his eyes after hearing the voice of Lincoln, Dodger sat up, only to lay back down thanks to Crash's hug. "Hi...Crash. I miss you too."

Lincoln joined in the embrace. "I'm sorry. She got my sisters."

After the breaking of the hug, Dodger stood up. "I'm so sorry, Lincoln. But guess what? It's time for their big bro to save them. We're going to save them and Clyde, Lincoln."

"I know we will. Where is she tho?"

"We need to head back to the city. Whatever she's planning, it'll be on the news."

Coco clears her throat, getting his attention. "While you were out, we learned that you three can transfer your piece of the Power Gem to each other."

Crash and Lincoln place their hand on Dodger and got their part of the gem back.

"Okay. That's really cool. Anyway, we gotta get to the city. We need wheels."

"How about something better?" Coco asked, looking at her brother and giving him a wink.

Lincoln touched Crash, giving him his power. Crash was tall, and his metal limbs had missiles and cannons. "Your turn, Dodger."

"Badas-" he quickly covers his mouth when he glances at Lincoln. "Awesomesauce."

Pressing his hand on the Male Marsupial, he watches Crash receive another height growth as well as thrusters on his feet and back as well as metal wings to fly.

"Let save the world."

Coco, Lincoln, and Dodger went on board Mecha Crash and flew off to the nearest city.


The Witch walked next to her pumpkin spider on the oncoming side of a bridge with Vanzilla caged on the spider's abdomen.

"This is where I shall perform my spell" She said, looking at the tower near her.

"What of our enemies?" Pumpkinhead asked his creator.

"When they arrive, kill them. Then, kill their love ones."

Summoning her broom, The Witch hop on to fly. But bright lights as well as a car horn stop her. The driver responsible for blinding her got out. "Oi, get your pumpkin thing out the way!"

With a snap of her finger, The Witch watches her spider shoot out strands of web at the man, wrapping him up and attaching him to the web along with Vanzilla.

Using her magic to rip the back driver's door off, The Witch pulled out a metallic pumpkin costume. A plan played in her head as she smiled. "This should get rid of those pests."


As they arrive above Detroit, Dodger and Coco search for any news that'll help them find The Witch. Lincoln felt the vibration in his pants and pulled out his phone.

"Hi, mom."

"Lincoln, is everything okay? Are you alright?" Mrs. Loud asked in a panicked tone.

"Y-Yeah, we're fine. What's wrong?"

"There's a big spider made of pumpkin on a bridge!" The voice of Lana said.

"Which is scientifically impossible" said Lisa.

"Oh, cool. I-I-I mean that's bad."

"Are you boys and girls okay? Are you coming home?" His mother asked.

"I'm...still in the contest. Nobody here heard the news or anything. Plus, we don't want to run into it."

"Okay, honey. Please be safe. Love you."

"Love you, mom. Love you girls."

"Love you, Lincoln," his sisters said before hanging up.

Getting off the phone, the kid let out a sigh. Dodger turns to see him down. Sliding over in front of him. "Lincoln, we're going to save them."

"But what if we don't?" He asked back.

"Lincoln, thinking that way means you've already lost. Luna and Lori are counting on you. So is Clyde from his bad hair day. Quitting will let them down. You don't want to do that, do you?"

The Kid shook his head. "I'm not gonna quit on them!"

"That's what I want to hear. Coco, I know where she's at" Dodger said, grabbing her tablet and putting in the name of the place. "A bridge named after Mr. Hockey."

In the direction, the heroes made their way to the bridge. When they arrived, they saw the moon starting to be covered by darkness.

"I don't believe those are clouds covering the moon" said Lincoln with a worry tone in his voice.

Dodger look down at the street, seeing flashing red and blue lights and hearing gun fire off. "We gotta get the citizens out of there. You with me, Linc?"

"From way up here?"

Touching the Crash ship and retrieving his powers, Dodger jumped off and dived in the sky to the bridge. Grabbing an object out of his pocket, he presses on the top and bottom of it.

"It's Morphin Time! Black Ranger Power!"

Down on the bridge, police fired at strange pumpkin monsters while innocent people ran away or towards them.

"Nothing is stopping those monsters or that spider thing!" A cop said.

In time, a black armored being land on the bridge, punching and kicking the monsters away. More of the pumpkin monsters flew at it. That's when Lincoln threw cards at them, destroying them. Three more went toward the heroes. The Bandicoot Siblings landed on them before joining the others.

"What's the plan?" Ace Savvy asked.

"Get to the Witch, get the book, simple." The Black Power Ranger answered.

"Look who decides to join us" Coco pointed out.

The Reaper, Werewolf Clyde, and an army of pumpkin robots charge at the heroes, who met them halfway.

Lincoln punched the monsters away before revealing a few cards. "Pick a card.

Flinging the card, they stuck on the bodies before exploding. He continued the onslaught card attacks until he was face to face with Clyde.

"C-Clyde. Buddy, listen to me. You're my best friend, and I don't want to hurt you."

His response was a roar in the face. The werewolf went to bite Ace's head. In close seconds, the Black Power Ranger and Crash Bandicoot punch him away from the kid hero.

The Robotic Marsupial jump on more pumpkin bots with his sister joining in. The Siblings spin around into the army, destroying a third of them before dodging a pounce attack from Clyde. Lincoln flew over to the two, getting Crash to take his power.

Hovering off the ground, the bandicoot shot out apple-like fruit from his robotic arms and legs. Each pumpkin bot that was hit explode at contact as for Clyde, the juice splattered on his body, ruining his outfit, making his fur sticky as well as making him angry.

Crash watched the werewolf leap at him. Ducking down with his eyes closed, he peek one opened to see the beast was down from ramming at the truck behind him. He let out a whew, wiping the sweat off his forehead. He gave Lincoln a high five, giving the kid his powers.

Lil Ace Savvy grabbed some metal bars and wrapped his best friend. "Sorry, Clyde."

"LINCOLN!" Coco screamed out.

He turned to see The Reaper rise right in front of him, pointing his shotgun in his face. "Die!"

The Servant of the Witch felt a strong hit to his pumpkin head, forcing him to fall on the ground. A deep growl seep out of his mouth as he gets up to see who kicked him. The Power Ranger.

"Remember me, asshole?"

Dodger and The Reaper trade body blows, not backing down from the spots they were standing in. Dodging a right hook, the pumpkin head spins around with a shotgun, pulling the trigger.

The Dragon Realm Hero was shot in the chest again. He fell on the street, hearing the laugh of The Reaper.

"Oh no. You got me" Dodger said in a sarcastic tone.

When The Reaper glance at the body on the road. He was confused as the armor was there, but not the body.

"Behind you."

Turning around and shooting again, the armor was on the ground. Dodger wasn't.

"Come on, pumpkin brain. You can do better than that."

The Reaper had enough of the games and began firing rounds all around him. Lincoln and the Bandicoots hid behind vehicles to avoid stray bullets. After tossing down the 8th pair of shotguns, the Pumpkinhead chuckled at the chaos he made along with the death of...

"Miss me, miss me. Now you gotta..."

With a strike through the neck, the head of the pumpkin fell to the right hand of the Black Power Ranger while the left was holding the black axe.

"Nah. I'm not gonna finish that statement."

With all his strength, Dodger toss the pumpkin over the bridge, landing in the river below.

The Heroes continue to make their way through the horde of Pumpkin Bots, closing in to the Pumpkin Spider. Dodger turns the Power Axe into blaster mode, shooting a huge beam, destroying the Jack-o-bots on the bridge and sky.

Lincoln flew towards the cage where his older sisters and the family van. Using the enhanced strength, the only brother stretched the bars and entered.

"Lori! Luna! Are you two okay?"

"Never better. Just get us out of here before we become spider food" Lori told him.

Lifting Vanzilla, the Loud Trio flew out of the cage and over the barricade to safety. Lincoln turn to help the others, but he look back at his sisters, giving them a smile with a thumbs up.

They return the gesture with a thumbs up. But the smile slowly went away as something caught their sight.

"Lincoln, behind you!" Luna cried out.

Turning around, Lil Ace Savvy was tackled to the ground by very angry Clyde Werewolf. Struggling to pull his arms from the strong grip, Lincoln watches his beast of a friend inhale air with smoke coming out of his mouth.

Crash, Coco, and Dodger saw what was about to go down, but The Reaper returned and overwhelmed the trio with pumpkin bots.

"Clyde, stop! Please don't hurt Lincoln. Please. Do it for me" Lori begged, trying to get into his head.

The Werewolf lowered his head, looking into her eyes. He whimpered at her as he knew what he was wrong. Then, he snarled at the former crush and prepared to let out a fire blast to his best friend.

Suddenly, the abdomen of the beast was binded and pulled off Lincoln.

"What the?" Luna said

"How?" asked Lincoln

"Ninja Ranger Power!"

During the overwhelming attacks, Dodger broke free from The Reaper, freeing the siblings along. He passed his power to Crash and pointed at The Witch and the moon, which was halfway dark. "Get her before she completes whatever she's doing."

"What about Lincoln?" Coco asked the unarmored adult teen.

"I'll take care of him."

Performing a hand gesture, Dodger wore a black ninja outfit with a giant creature standing over him. Shooting out towards the werewolf, it wrapped his chest and pulled him away from Lincoln.

Clyde was swallowed by a large robotic black frog. Dodger points at The Reaper, commanding the frog to shoot its tongue at him. It captured him, swallowing down.

"Alright, buddy. Hope you like pumpkin. Because here's dinner!" said Dodger, pointing out the spider.

This got the attention of The Witch as her two henchmen were out of commission. She went point at the frog for her Pumpkin Bots to handle it.

Unfortunately, she didn't see Coco behind her and was tackled on the hard surface of the tower. The book was on the edge, leaning like a seesaw. The Sister Bandicoot got up, grabbed the book, and jumped off into the arms of Crash in his 2nd form, flying away.

The Witch let out a growl, snapping her fingers to summon her broom.

Meanwhile, the frog hopped with its mouth open, getting a big bite of the spider. The Ninja saw Crash shooting fruit at the Witch, who was on their tail. The Orange Bandicoot decend to Lincoln, who tagged him, and Coco toss the book at him. He flew quickly when she changed directions. The Kid tags Dodger back into his ranger armor, jumped, and punched the Witch down on the street.

Insult to injury, the frog pees on her.

The four heroes land on the street together in front of her, the frog hopping behind them as they stare down upon the Witch.

"It's over. Give up" said Dodger.

She only laugh as she stood up, snapping her finger once more. The Pumpkin Bots flew around her before entering the river. The bridge began to shake like an earthquake was passing through.

"What is happening?" Lincoln asked, barely standing.

Thinking of what an episode of Power Ranger usually ends, Dodger knew what was next. "The final battle. Lincoln, you and I pass our powers to Crash."

Both human males pass their power to the marsupial. Dodger grabbed him by his power suit and threw him over to the river where the Pumpkin Bots dove in.

"Dodger! Crash can't swim!" said Coco.

He gave her a wink as Mecha Crash rose out of the water, ready to fight his opponent who rose out in front of him.

"It's a Megazord battle!"

The Pumpkinator trade punches with the Robotic Marsupial, coming close to knocking it down. Crash fought back, firing missiles from his shoulders. But the pumpkin didn't stop as metal tentacles wrapped around the arms.

Unable to move, Crash watched the Pumpkinator's craved chest glow intensely. "Time to be terminated!"

The Pumpkinator shot out an energy blast at the Robot Bandicoot. But it froze before it made contact. A cold fog arrives at the bridge, making people shiver, including the Witch.

"What is this?"

"The power of the mighty mastodon!" shout Dodger.

Mecha Crash received a new enchantment to his suit as the mastodon/mammoth head was the chest plate. The silver trunk blew a frost blast that froze the robot pumpkin in ice.

"This pumpkin is rotten. Frozen barrage attack!" command Dodger

Breaking the frozen tentacles, Crash unleashed a barrage of weapons follow with a big energy beam from the mastodon head, destroying The Pumpkinator.

A big wave of water rose onto the bridge, landing on The Witch. She starts to scream in pain as her body begins to lower to the ground. "No! W-Whats happening to me? It hurts! It hurts!"

"What is happening to her? Coco asked.

Lincoln shrugged his shoulders. Dodger, on the other hand, knew what was going on. "Water and Witches don't match. At least she didn't have a house fall on top of her."

"Huh?" asked the Loud Boy.

"Wizard of Oz? Dude, really? I watched that movie when I was your age. Actually, when I was 5. She's melting."

The Witch finished melting into a puddle of water.

Crash return to the group as the powers of the power gem release out of their body and form into the multicolored gem. Coco placed the item into her tablet.

"Awesome work, Crash. We got the gem!"

The siblings perform a dance while Lincoln and Dodger watch on, giving each other high fives. They looked to the moon and saw it was back to it's white shine.

It made Lincoln gasp. "If the moon is back and the Witch is gone..."

He turn to where the frog use to be to see Clyde back to himself, walking towards them. The best friends hug each other for what seem like minutes.

"Um, Lincoln..." He asked, getting Linc to break the hug. "What happened?"

Dodger POV

After a wild Halloween night, we drove back to the comic book. Everyone was still talking about the fight with the Witch on the Grodie Howe Bridge, we decided to say our goodbyes privately at the nearby park.

Lincoln and Clyde stayed in the van, asleep. So Luna, Lori, and I talk to Crash and Coco.

"Thank you so much for helping us get the gem back. I don't know why she wanted it personally. But it's in our hands for good" said Coco, Crash giving us a thumbs up.

"It's no problem. I'm glad she is gone." I check out my arm to see the Electric and Fire Dragon Powers were back to normal. "Now with my powers back, I got a idiot to beat up."

"So do we. Take care, Dodger, Lori, Luna. Tell Lincoln we said goodbye."

A portal appears behind the siblings. Crash and Coco Bandicoot enter, waving goodbye at us. The portal vanished, leaving the older teens alone.

"As much I love to talk about this some more, we gotta head home."

"Alright, Lori. You got my number. Call me if there's anything weird or strange that I need to take care of. It was nice to meet you, Luna. Tell Clinton McCloud I say bye."

I went to run back to my car at the comic store. But Lori grabbed my arm, stopping me.

"Dodger, next time we're together, please keep the trouble away."

I chuckled. "I don't look for trouble. Trouble looks for me. Bye, everyone."

In a flash, I left the Loud Sisters, returned to Hammerhead, my car, and drove off to my next destination for my next job till Bianca tells me that Ripto is on the loose.

Happy Halloween everyone.


On top of the tower of the Gordie Howe Bridge, two men stood on top, watching the moon.

"Good work, Dominic. You may prove your worth after all."

"Come on, Damian. You didn't me, did you?"

Damian look at his partner with an eyebrow raised, giving him the answer. "I trusted Finn. Look what happened to him. Anyway, we have the Witch's book. Time to search for the orb."

Dark energy below the men's feet rose to their heads as they disappeared into the night.

"Hey! Hey! Someone come let me out of this! Hey! Does this city know who I am?! I'm Enzo Amore! Certified G and Bonified Stud! Hey!"

Enzo was still attached to a strand of web on the bridge, hanging over the road as cars keep driving.
