The rangers have done well lately. They managed to get their hands on a new megazord and managed to cripple some of Wolfsin's power. Now they just need to get rid of Wolfsin himself. That's what Pro is trying to figure out. Wolfsin might not have the Lycantron anymore, but he is still powerful and dangerous. They need a way to stop him once and for all. Pro was looking for a way to do just that. He dug around for answers in a closet, but stopped when he found something else. He pulled out a small box he had stashed away and near it was a framed photo of him when he was younger with a man that only one could assume was his father. As he looked at the items, he wondered what he should do. Something inside that box gave him hope, but he was hesitant to unleash it.
"Pro!" Hannah called and gave him a spook. "Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. Are you okay?"
"Yes. Just looking for a way for us to defeat Wolfsin." Pro said as he put silly thoughts out of his head and focused at the task at hand. However, Hannah did notice the items he was staring at. "I'm afraid I haven't been able to find anything just yet." He said as he joined with the others.
"Wolfsin was sealed away once before. There has to be a way to seal him away once again." Lance said. "If we really can't destroy him, maybe we can place him back in that seal." All of them were wondering how they can do just that. As they were thinking, a bird flew in out of nowhere and gave them a spook until it landed down.
"What the heck? How did that bird get here?" Austin questioned. Pro noticed an insignia on it with a message and knew it was what he was looking for.
"Perfect. They answered back." Pro said as he took the message from the bird.
"Who uses birds to message each other? We might be knights, but we're not in Medieval Ages." Hannah said.
"More importantly, what is it?" Lance asked.
"I reached out for help on what to do about Wolfsin." Pro said. "There are others out there like me. Others who know about the battles that happened between ghouls and the five legendary knights. We are all part of the same order."
"You mean you're not the only one?" Timmy questioned.
"Yes, and I got response to the ones who resign at Lakelin." Pro said.
"Lakelin? Isn't that a tranquil place or something?" Austin questioned. "Can't anyone walk in that place? Why isn't it protected by a barrier like right here?"
"A barrier was placed around here because I was given the responsibility of protecting your Knight Callers so that we would have them ready." Pro said. "Lakelin might hold the secrets we need to stop Wolfsin once and for all."
"Like the spell we can use to seal him away. That sounds perfect." Lance said as this is just what they need.
"Wait just a minute. There are others like you out there?" Johnny questioned. "Why haven't you told us about this sooner? Don't you think it would have helped?"
"Yes, but there wasn't any need." Pro said.
"But the thing is that you are here alone. Why is it only you?" Johnny said. "You hardly ever leave this place. If there are others like you out there, what do you really do? You found the five of us, you helped us, but why is it you hardly leave? Why not join the fight?" Pro wasn't sure how to answer that. Pro has been wanting that, but he was holding himself back.
"Just go to Lakelin and find the answers." Pro said as he ended the discussion, but it seems like there was a heavy burden.
...
Wolfsin
"Curse those rangers. How could I have let this happen?" Wolfsin said as he was still feeling the after effects of his last battle. His greatest weapon has been destroyed, but now he wants to beat the rangers even more. "I must find a way to have my vengeance."
"You are in a predicament. It might only get worse." He looked and was met with Prince Ghoular.
"What do you want?" Wolfsin said.
"The rangers have defeated your greatest weapon. They'll surely set their sights on you." Prince Ghoular claimed. "In fact, I believe they'll soon find a way to seal you away like you were before."
"What? What do you mean?" Wolfsin questioned.
"I might have predicted their next move. They'll head for a place called Lakelin." Prince Ghoular claimed. "That is where the secret to sealing you away lies. They'll head there to make it happen again. Lucky for you, I have an idea that will prevent that as well as ridding both of us the rangers."
"Why would you help me?" Wolfsin questioned.
"Because I want the rangers vanquished like you." Prince Ghoular said.
"And that's why you called me. You won't find a better ghoul than me." A new ghoul showed himself with it looked like he was covered in jagged ice with a white face. He also carried a scepter with an ice crystal on it. "You're the great Wolfsin I've been hearing about? You don't look so great to me."
"Easy, Frostbitter." Prince Ghoular said. "You two are to be working together. If all goes well, the rangers will be done for." That's something they can all agree on.
...
Lakelin
Lakelin was a tranquil place, something like a temple. The rangers made their way to find the secrets to seal away Wolfsin. As they made their way there, there was something that was bugging them.
"Johnny, don't you think you were a little hard on Pro back at Chalice?" Hannah asked. "Pro's been good to us. He made us rangers, guided us, and more."
"I just think it's rather weird how he never mentioned any of this until now. Does he choose to isolate himself or something?" Johnny said.
"It's Pro's business." Lance said. "We'll just have to trust him, and if he doesn't want to talk about something like that, we should just leave it. Pro's never gave us a reason not to trust him, so I'm sure he has his reasons."
"Aw! You must be the new knights." When they arrived at the temple, they were met with an elderly gentleman. "I welcome you to Lakelin. It is an honor to meet the new knights of this time."
"Thank you. Pro told us you might be able to help us." Austin said.
"Yes. I've heard stories about Wolfsin myself." The elder said as he understands how troubling this is. "It was so good to hear from Reginald after so long. I just wish it was under better circumstances. I was there during his initiation and he accepted the responsibilities with pride. When he changed his name to Pro, it was quite the choice."
"Wait. Reginald?" Timmy questioned as none of them understood.
"Are you saying "Pro" isn't his real name? It's Reginald?" Hannah questioned.
"You mean you don't know?" The elder said. "Pro's family has been a part of the order for generations. When one becomes of proper age to become a full-fledged member, they are free to go by a new name to symbolize the start of a brand new life. Pro was only about twelve when that happened to him, and he decided to change his name from Reginald to Pro."
"Pro never told us about this." Lance said.
"Has me wondering what else he didn't tell us about." Johnny said. All of them are starting to see there's still much about Pro that they don't know when he is the one that brought them together.
"Please, come in." The elder said as he showed them all in. As he allowed the five knights to come in, they made preparations out of sheer hospitality. One man was preparing some tea. As he stepped away, he left the tea unguarded. That allowed Wolfsin to sneak in and slip something inside the tea.
...
The Woods
As Wolfsin was already inside Lakelin, Frostbitter and a squadron of battas appeared in the woods just outside the place.
"Lakelin... This is a historical spot, and a sacred place for those knights from all those years ago. Well, now it will be where I triumph over them all!" Frostbitter said as he and the battas made their way to Lakelin and plan to destroy the place.
...
Lakelin
"Wolfsin was a powerful and dangerous ghoul." The elder said as they all gathered together and were brought the sealing secret. "His power was so immense that the first original five knights could only seal him away rather than destroy him. When the battle for our world took place all those years ago, there were a few powerful ghouls that were far too powerful. The five knights were able to destroy the king of the ghouls at the time, but it almost cost them their lives."
"What does any of this have to do with Wolfsin?" Johnny questioned.
"Johnny, be nice. We're learning about our heritage." Hannah said.
"Wolfsin was among the powerful ghouls, but right here is all you need to know. Even if you can't seal him away again, perhaps you can do what those before you could not." The elder said as he had the box that contained the info they need. Just before opening it, they were being served their tea. "Please. As long as you are here, we wish for you to enjoy your stay. There is still so much for you to learn."
"Thank you." Lance said as he took his tea. He was the first to drink out of it, but then he did a spit take and suddenly found himself in pain.
"Lance! What's wrong?!" Timmy questioned.
"Look!" Austin said as they could see the tea burning through the floor. "The tea has been poisoned!"
"Elder! Ghouls have been spotted heading this way!" Rotten timing for them. The rangers had to do something, but they couldn't leave Lance like this.
"Guys, go! I'll be fine!" Lance said.
"Go! I will tend to him to try and cure the poison!" The elder said. The rangers trusted Lance was in good hands and went to battle.
...
Outside
Frostbitter and his battas attacked everything in their sight with them wrecking the place. Leaving Lance in good hands, the other four rangers hurried out to face the enemy.
"Call of the Knights!" All four of the morphed and charged straight to battle. They instantly began attacking as they slashed their swords right against the battas.
"Let's try and get them away from here so they don't destroy this place!" Austin said.
"Good idea. First, let's give them the message." Timmy said with him pulling out his axe. "Deer Disc, set!" He set his disc against his axe and powered it up. Once he did that, he he swung it as hard as he could with him unleashing a deer-shaped blast. It blasted against some of the batta with them either being destroyed or blown out of the place. "Let's finish this quickly and help Lance."
"Good idea. We need to move fast." Hannah said with the four of them charging in.
...
Lance
The poison Lance ingested caused his insides to feel like they were burning. The elder and the other caretakers tried their best to help him by using herbs and such to try and treat it, but they don't know what kind of poison they're dealing with.
"Here. Maybe this will help." The elder said as he tried to get Lance to drink an antidote.
"That isn't going to help any. Poison from the Underworld can be quite potent compared to regular poison." They all looked to the entrance to see Wolfsin was there.
"Wolfsin?! What are you doing here?!" Lance questioned.
"Don't worry about the poison. It won't finish you for I want the pleasure of that myself." Wolfsin said. A couple of the caretakers tried to stop him, but Wolfsin fired an attack that knocked them and the elder against a wall. Wolfsin was planning to take Lance next, but then he spotted the box that contained what the rangers needed. "That wouldn't happen to hold the secrets to seal me away, would it?" Lance didn't say anything, but the look on his face told Wolfsin that it was. "I thought so. I will never be sealed away again." He attacked the box and destroyed everything in it. That means that everything in it to seal him away is gone. "Now, you're coming with me."
...
The Rangers
As for the other four rangers, they were able to push the battas back into the woods so that Lakelin wouldn't be destroyed in the fight. They were able to fend them off, but they were trying to wrap this up in a hurry so they could help Lance. However, the worst was yet to come. Frostbitter waited for the right moment to strike, and that was time now.
"I'm sick of waiting. Time to take the fight to them." Frostbitter said as he tried to choose his opponents, and he had a clear shot at Johnny and Timmy. "Finally, some action!" He fired a barrage of icicles at them and was able to blast Johnny and Timmy with them until they were knocked down.
"What was that?" Timmy questioned.
"That was me!" Frostbitter said as he charged right at the two of them.
"Lookout, Timmy!" Johnny said. Frostbitter didn't even give them the chance to recover as he swung his scepter against both of them. He even grabbed Timmy and threw him against a tree and blasted Johnny with some ice. After he did that, he grabbed Johnny and smashed him against a tree.
"Those other ghouls were weak compared to me." Frostbitter said.
"You're about the same to me." Johnny said as he kicked him off. Johnny tried swinging his sword at him, but Frostbitter blocked it.
"You can't beat me!" Frostbitter said as he bashed his scepter against Johnny. "I'm the coolest, baddest, and best ghoul there ever was!" He finished with a powerful slash that knocked Johnny down.
"You forgot that you talk a lot." Austin said as he and Hannah charged in. They both tried attacking with their swords, but Frostbitter stopped it with his scepter. Once he did that, he pushed back and slashed it against both of them.
"You rangers are out of your league." Frostbitter claimed. "Ice Stormer!" Frostbitter used his powers over ice and unleashed a powerful ice storm right at the rangers and blasted both of them with it. It was like being attacked by a never-ending force of winter. "Told you!"
"This guy's tough." Timmy said.
"So are we! Get him!" Johnny said. Timmy and Johnny got back in as they both grabbed a hold of Frostbitter and tried to hold him down. "Austin! Hannah! Now!" Austin and Hannah got back up and tried to attack Frostbitter, but Frostbitter was able to free himself and throw Timmy and Johnny against Hannah and Austin. Once he did that, he unleashed a powerful blast of cold wind and did some damage to the rangers. The force was so cold that they could barely keep themselves together. "I thought you rangers would be more of a challenge."
"You did good, Frostbitter." He turned around and saw Wolfsin with him carrying Lance. "I have Red Ranger. The plan worked perfectly."
"Of course it did. You have me." Frostbitter said. "What are you waiting for? You have him, so just finish him off."
"The one who is finished you!" Frostbitter turned to see Austing had his bow powered with his alligator disc. He unleashed the blast and Frostbitter was hit rather hard with him faced with a mighty explosion. That took care of one ghoul, but there was another to deal with. "Let him go, Wolfsin!"
"Come and find him!" Wolfsin said as he took Lance and took off.
"No! Lance!" Austin called. "This can't be happening!" The rangers came here hoping to find a way to defeat Wolfsin, but now they lost that and lost a ranger.
...
Pro
Pro remained in Chalice and waited to hear from the rangers. When he did, he wasn't expecting what he heard. The call came and he got the bad news.
"What?! Lance has been taken by Wolfsin?!" Pro said over the call. "Try and track Wolfsin down. We must get Lance back before it's too late. I'll see what I can do here." Things didn't go as how he expected. Now that things have turned the way he did, he turned to what he had hidden away. However, why won't he use it?
...
Wolfsin
"Excellent..." Wolfsin said as he carried Lance with him. "Soon, the rangers shall meet their demise, and vengeance shall be mine." He claimed as he could see it before him now. With a ranger poisoned and defenseless, are the rangers in deep trouble now?
