A/N: Here is Chapter 8!
Sunyshore Coast…
The sun was shining brightly in the city of Sunyshore. The rangers had their day off and for Stacy, she was excited. Stacy and Setsuna finally had livable wages from solving a few cases. Stacy decided to celebrate by going to the Sunyshore Art Gallery. The rangers were curious to see what Stacy wanted to do, so they all met up at the entrance. The Sunyshore Art Gallery had rainbow-colored designs with a Smeargle on top, holding a brush and a paint tray. She grinned as she was looking at the glass windows. Her Kadabra looked at her in surprise.
"We are going to have so much fun! No Capone! No Cyrus! No Satfrax or Persira… and FUN!" Stacy exclaimed, "Are you excited?"
"Kadabra!" he said, smiling. Stacy grinned as she looked up. The other rangers were heading over toward her. Xavier looked at Stacy, seeing her very happy. He has never seen her this happy, "Why are you so happy?"
"Um… I am about to go get my sketch done," she said, "I signed up to be on a canvas by a Pokémon Artist."
"You used your money for that?" asked Setsuna, "We DO have bills you know?"
"I know," said Stacy, grinning, "But, sometimes… you just need to do something for you! Right, Kadabra?"
Kadabra nodded as Xavier stepped forward, confused, "So, how did you manage this?"
"I filled out an application and then I paid 3,000 pokedollars," she said.
Setsuna's face went white as she looked at her, "Why?"
"Hey, you pay cheap, you get cheap, and I wanted something that will look good on me… and the lighthouse wall looked bland anyway."
Carl turned around as he facepalmed, "Next thing we need to get her is a financial advisor."
Stacy's face darted at Carl. Carl freaked out as she stepped forward. As she went to stomp on his foot, the Chrono Morphers started activating. Carl took a deep breath as the rangers huddled over to look at their morphers.
"Rangers, there's a criminal outside of Sunyshore City… attacking an artist," said Hoot.
"Let's go!" said Setsuna.
The four rangers went as Stacy went inside. As she went to pull the door, Carl grabbed her by the arm and pulled him. Kadabra turned around as a red light appeared, being dragged into the Poké Ball.
"You all owe me money for that! It was a onetime deal!" said Stacy.
"They have them monthly. Just postpone it," said Carl, shaking his head, as he released the grip.

Chapter 8: The Scamming Artist
Route 222…
"Ahh!" A man yelled out. He had a tan-skin complexion with a white and green Hawaiian shirt with blue jeans and brown shoes. He had black hair and red eyes with his glasses up in the air. He freaked out as he was stumbling. The monster laughed as he looked at his artwork. The Centuroids behind him grabbed them, causing a blue aura to surround them. The work disappeared. The monster was a Smeargle but had rainbow hair on his beard with green metallic eyes. He had a brush that he carried behind his back as he wore a blue metallic suit with a red metallic tie.
"Hitchiker Smearketch here… and now I am going to have you make some art for Persira!"
As he freaked out, a pink and blue foot kicked Smearketch. Smearketch yelled as he landed on the ground. Smearketch looked up as Stacy and Xavier arrived.
"Who the heck are you?"
Setsuna, Carl and Mason flipped forward as they arrived. Setsuna revealed her Time Force Badge, "Time Force! You're under arrest!"
"Poké Rangers?" he asked. He quickly grabbed his brush, creating a red submachine gun. Grabbing it, he pulled the bolt and released the weaponry. The rangers yelled as they landed on the ground. Mason and Carl turned around as they pressed their morphers, revealing their weapons.
"Vortex Vulcan!"
"Vortex Pulsar!"
Pulling the trigger, yellow and green blasts emerged as Smearketch was hit. Smearketch turned around as Setsuna slashed him with her Vector Sabers. She stretched her hands out as Stacy and Xavier flipped forward with their sabers. As Smearketch landed on the ground, Stacy stretched out her Vector Saber, "Build Up!"
A pink energy beam appeared around her saber, "Vector Hurley!"
A pink energy blast emerged as Smearketch was hit. Explosions occurred as he landed on the ground. Freaking out, a blue aura surrounded him as he disappeared. The rangers turned around as they saw the artist freaked out. Stacy froze as she looked at him. He pushed his glasses to his face. Looking up, Stacy headed over there as she looked at him, "Are you okay?"
"Ye… Yeah," he said.
"What's your name?" Stacy asked, walking him back. The artist nodded, "Pedro. Pedro Cordoba."
Setsuna looked up in response, "What?"
The rangers turned around as Setsuna looked up excitedly. She then realized she had to take a few steps back, "Well, it's nice to see you. We can escort you back."
"Sure?" he asked.
The rangers nodded as they were walking back. As they were heading back to Sunyshore City, the police started heading toward them. The rangers turned around as they saw the Sunyshore Police. They froze as Rey and Ben opened their doors. Rey walked over as he turned to the artist, "You okay?"
"Yeah," said Pedro, "I'm fine."
"We got word of Capone's criminal. But, I guess we never make it on time," he said, turning to the pink ranger.
Stacy grinned, walking toward him, "Get there faster! Let's go, guys."
As she walked away with him. Rey turned around as he looked at her, "That voice sounds familiar…"
Sunyshore Lighthouse…
"So, what was that all about?" asked Stacy.
Setsuna turned around as she looked at her. The other rangers followed suit, unmorphed as they went to hang out in the loft. Setsuna sat down as she looked at Stacy, "I had to keep my mouth shut."
"Why?" asked Xavier, "It's about Pedro, isn't it?"
Setsuna nodded. Mason turned to her as he looked at Hoot, "Well, why? Let me guess: he's going to be famous someday."
Hoot sighed as it pecked Setsuna in the head. As it landed on the ground, Hoot's eyes opened as a screen appeared. The rangers looked up as Shawn and Jace were on the screen. Jace looked up, noticing the team, "Hey, team. What's good?"
"Jace… how are your cases?" asked Setsuna.
"Well, good and bad," said Shawn, turning to Jace and then back at him, "It would be great if you were back… but Schiff's orders. How's the criminals?"
Stacy interjected as she turned around, "Well, we caught six. Now, we have a new one. Apparently, after Pedro Cordoba… he's really cute."
"THE Pedro Cordoba," said Jace, surprised, "He's very famous here."
"Shh… Jace!" shouted Shawn. Jace rolled his eyes, "Well, it would be nice to tell the rangers what's going on. It could help them with their case"
Reluctantly, Shawn nodded as he turned to them, "Pedro Cordoba is going to be an amazing painter in the future. His works here are basically the same you would pay for Dialga's Adamant Orb. It is THAT good."
"No way," said Xavier, "He looks like a wimp in the present."
"Well, he didn't have a good family life. He wanted to paint. His parents wanted him to be a Pokémon Trainer. He chose not to. He's been struggling to live on his own," Jace said, "By the way… who is this criminal that's after him?"
"Smearketch?" asked Stacy.
"Ah…," said Jace, typing up the criminals on his end. An image of Smearketch appeared as the rangers looked at him, "Yeah, he's not the greatest criminal, but he isn't the worst criminal. He's basically another Rogue."
"You mean another small crime?" asked Mason, looking at him.
"Not really a small crime," said Hoot, "At least according to my databanks."
"Correct, Hoot," Shawn replied, "He was an interplanetary hijacker. He created things with his brush, weapons, bombs, you name it and kidnapped communities of people. He was sentenced for 400 years to life."
"Jeez, so why Pedro?" asked Xavier.
Stacy turned around as she looked at him, "Simple. If Capone knows he's famous, he would be kidnapped…"
"But, Capone isn't into art," said Shawn. Setsuna nodded, "Yeah… unless…"
"Persira," said Stacy, looking at Setsuna. Setsuna looked up as Stacy climbed out of the couch, "I think it's time we pay a visit to Pedro. I have an idea."
"And what's that?" asked Carl.
"He will sketch my Pokémon… and me," Stacy replied.
The rangers freaked out as the pink ranger headed toward the exit. The rangers followed suit as they headed out the door. Hoot turned around to Shawn as he shook his head, "Who knew a hijacker would go for an artist?"
Capone's Lair…
Smearketch grinned as he was spinning his brush. Turning around, the Centuroids were walking around with canvases of Pedro's artwork. Capone hissed as he turned around, putting the cigar out as he turned to Persira, "Persira, what is the meaning of this?"
"Well…," said Satfrax, interjecting, "All of these works are from Pedro Cordoba."
"Pedro… Cordoba?" asked Capone.
"Why, yes!" said Persira, walking around as she looked at the window, "He's a hot… hot artist and his works were famous after the 21st century."
"So, you brought a criminal who could draw anything to kidnap people because-," said Capone.
"I want him… to draw me," Persira said. Capone freaked out as he looked at Persira. Persira laughed as she spun around, sitting down as she looked at her leader, "It's so simple, Croakie. He can draw my photo and we can sell it for cash. It would be the greatest scam… ever!"
"But his drawings aren't that good," said Cyrus, raising his eyebrow. Persira turned around as she looked at him, "WHO ASKED YOU?"
Cyrus gulped as he landed on the ground. Persira turned around as she looked at Smearketch, "Alrighty… did you sketch that car you made for me?"
"I did, my dear," he said, grinning.
"Good, we're going for a ride," she said, pressing the button on the side wall. The exit door opened as she turned around, looking at Capone, "Bye, boss!"
Capone waved his hand as Persira and Smearketch left. As the door closed, Capone rolled his eyes as he shook his head. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"Persira… that makes no sense," he said, "Should've left him in 4024."
Pedro's House…
Getting the address from Shawn and Jace, Stacy walked over as she noticed the home. The home was right outside Pastoria City. As she noticed the brown house in the midst of the swamp, the pink ranger walked toward the house. The other rangers decided to follow her as she headed toward the front door. As she did, she peeked into the window. She was watching Pedro painting with his Smeargle.
"That's it Smeargle, nice brush strokes," he said.
"Smear…," the Smergale responded, using his tail as a brush.
Stacy grinned as she slowly knocked on the door. Pedro, overhearing it, walked over as he went to open the door. Pedro looked across as Stacy grinned with a smile.
"Hi," said Pedro, "My name is Stacy Jones. I was the trainer that wanted my Kadabra and I sketched?"
Pedro pushed his glasses as he turned around, "Are those your friends?"
Stacy, turning around, noticed the rangers as she turned around toward him, "Yes!"
"Come on in."
The rangers walked into the home. The rangers were amazed as they noticed the brilliant artwork done. Granted, for an amateur artist, it looked pretty basic, but some of the art seemed modified and more emotionally drawn. Setsuna walked over as she noticed the painting being created, "What is that painting?"
"Moonbeams. The inspiration came from a full moon shining over Lake Valor," said Pedro, "My Smeargle can design that paint work."
"That is so cool," she said. She had heard of this painting before, but never saw it done in the present. She turned around as Pedro's eyes were fixed on Stacy. Stacy grinned as she turned around, "You were supposed to be at the art museum. What happened to you?"
"I was attacked… luckily the Poké Rangers saved me," said Pedro, grabbing a canvas. He grinned as he saw Kadabra released. Kadabra floated up with its legs crossed. As the rangers were watching, they were amazed to see the beautiful artwork. Setsuna grinned as she turned to the others. The four grinned as Stacy nodded. Stacy turned around as she went to watch Pedro, seeing her eyes locked on to him.
"I want a nice photo for my room, but it's all worth it to arrest Smearketch," she thought, grinning as she froze.
Meanwhile, as the rangers were examining the artwork. Persira and Smearketch were looking at the window, watching them.
"Ugh, Setsuna and her friends are here," she said, looking at them. Satfrax turned to them as he raised his hand, "So, those four rangers are for the 21st century. Carl, Mason… and I don't know about those two, but I've seen them in action."
"Regardless," said Persira, turning to Satfrax, "I am not going to let a woman get sketched."
Satfrax turned around as he walked away. Persira looked at him as they reached the car, "Why did you come with me anyway?"
"I figured you needed help," said Satfrax, releasing golden gears from his hand. As they landed on the ground, Centuroids appeared behind him. Persira grinned as she looked at Satfrax, "I can count on you…"
"Well, he can draw you, we can sell the painting and we can probably make more than enough for Capone to be the biggest mob boss of the 21st century!" he said, giving Persira a high five.
"So… let's crash the party," Persira said.
Inside…
Kadabra opened its eyes, looking at the window. A blue aura diminished as he landed on its feet, "Kadabra!"
"Kadabra, what's wrong? You need to stay still!"
Pedro turned around as he looked at Kadabra, "I was almost finished."
The other rangers turned around as they looked at Kadabra. Mason watched Kadabra, looking at Stacy as he turned to Pedro, "There's someone outside. Machamp, go!"
As the Poké Ball released, Machamp appeared as he walked out the door. As he opened the door, Machamp freaked out. The Centuroid arrived as he went to strike. Machamp threw the Centuroid as it landed on the ground. Banging and clanging occurred. The rangers looked up as they noticed the Centuroids attacked.
"How did they know?" asked Setsuna.
The Centuroids broke through the windows, destroying the artwork. Smeargle freaked out as he returned to Pedro's Poké Ball. The Centuroid went to strike him, only for Kadabra to raise its spoon. A blue aura surrounded them as the Centuroids were thrown across. Stacy turned around as she used a spinning hook kick, smacking the Centuroid to the ground, "Great job, Kadabra! This is going to be hard to ask, try a Psybeam!"
Kadabra nodded as he released a rainbow beam from its spoon. The Centuroid took some damage, but not enough to knock it down. Stacy used a sidekick to break the Centuroids down. She turned around as a rocket was flying toward her. Grabbing Kadabra, she landed on the ground as the rocket pierced through, causing an explosion. She turned around as Persira jumped in, grabbing Pedro.
"Pedro!"
"Help!"
As Stacy went after him, Persira turned around as she threw him to Smearketch. As Smearketch and Satfrax drove away, Persira hissed as she used her claws. A purple aura, she slashed Stacy across. Stacy landed on the ground as she revealed her Vector Saber. A pink aura surrounded it as Persira went to strike. She went to disappear, only for her to be stuck. Kadabra was using its Disable.
"I got this, Kadabra! Keep her still! Vector Hurley!"
A pink aura struck from her saber as Persira was hit. Persira fell as she landed on the ground. As she went to strike, a blue aura surrounded her as she disappeared. The five rangers turned to each other.
"They knew where he lived based on history, didn't they?" asked Xavier.
"Who knows where they went," said Mason.
Carl grinned as he looked at them, "Not necessarily."
The rangers looked at Carl as he pressed a few buttons on his Chrono Morpher. The rangers watched as they noticed a map of Sinnoh and a red beeping dot heading toward Sunyshore. Setsuna turned around as Carl grinned, "I created a tracking device and planted it in the back."
"Way to go, Carl," said Xavier, grabbing his keys, "Let's get to Sunyshore."
Sunyshore City…
Pedro gulped as Persira led him to a beautiful home. As the door opened, Persira grinned as she was looking at the beautiful living room. It was white with a window piercing through. Smearketch laughed as he looked at him, showing the canvases. Pedro looked up as the Centuroids arrived with trays of high-class food.
"Who are you?" asked Pedro.
"I'm Persira, Croak Capone's assistant," she said, pushing her nail into his chin, "I've seen your artwork. And… I want you to draw me."
"Why should I?" he asked.
"Your drawings would make millions," she said.
Pedro laughed as he looked at her. She looked at him as his laughter escalated. He turned to her as he laughed, "Thanks for the offer. But, I have a feeling I won't be getting a cut."
"Huh?" asked Persira, "Yes you will."
"I've heard of you guys… Words been getting around. You would do anything to make a buck. You kidnapped me to scam me," he said, flipping the tables. He turned around as he looked at the spilled food. He then turned around as he broke a canvas. He turned to her as he laughed, "I wouldn't draw your face."
She stretched her hand and slapped him and then kicked him in the stomach. Pedro looked up as he laughed, "You aren't an inspiration to draw anyway."
"I wasted this monster and my time… no offense, Smearketch. I am sure we can use you for something… kill him!"
As Smearketch went to draw a weapon, a pink aura surrounded them as Kadabra teleported the rangers to the building. Persira watched as Smearketch was kicked in the stomach. Smearketch grumbled as he turned around, looking at Persira. The other rangers defeated the Centuroids that were in the room.
"How did you know?" asked Smearketch.
"You sketched a car, I planted a bug," said Carl, grinning as he looked at him, "I'm surprised Satfrax didn't catch it… or here."
"He went to go set up the business… or it was," she said.
Stacy stepped forward as she went to speak, "Persira, I won't allow to use art for your gain! This man will do great things one day. I don't want art to be used for your evil."
Pedro looked at Stacy, mesmerized as Stacy stepped forward, "Kadabra, get Pedro somewhere safe."
Kadabra nodded as he grabbed Pedro. Before Persira could grab Kadabra, a white aura surrounded them, disappearing. Stacy turned around as she looked at Persira. Persira grumbled, "So, what are you going to do? Arrest me?"
"Your words, not mine," said Stacy, "Rangers, let's go!"
Stacy stood in the middle as she formed an X with her arms, the morpher faced Persira. The others followed suit as they stretched out their arms and then placed two fingers on the morpher, "Time for… Time Force!"
Pressing the button, a red and white Poké Ball was flashing on the morpher as blue lights began to swirl. The rangers jumped up as they transformed into their suits. First, Stacy jumped up as her suit materialized. In a four-way split screen, the other rangers transformed in their suits. The five rangers landed on the floor.
"Time Force Pink!"
"… Red!"
"… Blue!"
"… Yellow!"
"… Green!"
"Poké Rangers Time Force!" shouted the rangers as Stacy stretched out the Time Force Badge. The rangers stepped forward as Stacy spoke, "Persira, Smearketch, you're under arrest! Prepare yourself!"
"Centuroids!" shouted Stacy.
"Chrono Access!"
Xavier turned around as his Vector Sabers appeared. As he slashed the Centuroids across. He turned around as the grunts were hit. Blue lines appeared as he spun around, slashing the Centuroids to the ground.
Setsuna and Carl took the Centuroids outside, performing hand to hand combat. As Setsuna threw a punch at one, Carl used a spinning hook kick on the other. Both kicked two at the same time, causing them to crash and burn. Explosions occurred as the rangers noticed more, heading toward them. However, yellow beams struck them. The rangers noticed Mason with his Vortex Vulcan.
"Thank you!" said Carl.
"I got you, bro!" Mason replied, shooting the other Centuroids. As the Centuroids landed on the ground, he turned around as he struck more.
Meanwhile, Persira and Stacy broke through a window. As the two of them turned around, Persira grabbed her purple and white blaster, shooting Stacy. Stacy landed on the ground as she reached for her morpher, pulling out her Vortex Sniper, "Vortex Sniper!"
Pink beams struck as the shootout began. As Stacy went across, Persira started shooting as the windows and the living room were being shredded, Stacy pulled the trigger as pink beams were hit, shooting Persira. Persira was damaged as her Vortex Sniper disappeared. She quickly grabbed her Vector Sabers, "Build Up!"
Pink waves of fairy energy formed around her blades. She jumped up as one blade was above her head and one blade was below her. A pink clock appeared behind her as she jumped up, "Time Strike! Star Slash, 6!"
As the blade headed toward Persira, Smearketch took the hit as a green aura appeared. The brush blocked the attack as Stacy landed on the ground. The other rangers arrived as Smearketch created a blue and red machine gun. The rangers watched as bullets rang out, shooting the rangers as they landed on the ground. Stacy turned around as she noticed the brush being held, "That's it!"
She turned around as she reached her Vortex Sniper. As the bullets rang out, she ran as quickly as she could with her weapon. Jumping up, the attack missed as pink energy formed from her weapon, "Fairy Lock!"
Locking on target, a pink aura formed from her weapon, "Dazzling Gleam!"
A pink blast of energy occurred as the paintbrush exploded. As Smearketch backed off, the rangers turned around as they grabbed their Vector Sabers. The rangers charged their weapons, "Quintuple Hurley!"
Five blasts of energy from their sabers appeared as Smearketch was hit. Persira turned around as she looked at Smearketch, flipping her cape, a blue aura appeared as she disappeared. Stacy turned around as she looked at Smearketch, "Let's do it!"
The Vortex Launcher connected on top of the Vortex Sniper. The Vortex Blaster connected to the front of the weapon. The Vortex Vulcan and Vortex Pulsar combined on either side of the blaster, sideways. The Time Force Rangers held it as they aimed for Smeaketch.
"Vortex Bazooka!"
"Target…," said Stacy.
"Locked On!" shouted Setsuna.
The helmets began to glow as the scope began to arrive in their visors. A crosshair appeared as Smearketch went to strike the rangers down.
"Blizzard Beam!"
Pulling the trigger, a blast of ice energy erupted from the weapon. Swirling across, the blast pierced Smearketch. He yelled as ice began to form around his feet, heading toward his head, "You are going to have to do better!"
Ripping the purple patch from his leg, Smearketch began to grow ten times bigger, roaring as he went to strike. He twirled around with his brush.
"Hoot!" shouted Mason.
"Understood," Hoot replied, "Activating Emergency System!"
During the slipstream, the Time Force Zords went through two thousand years of history. As a white light surrounded one of the buildings, the five jets appeared out of Sunyshore City's attractions. Flying across, the Time Force Zords were in a linear formation.
The rangers all landed in their respective zords. As Stacy logged in, Hoot's face appeared on the screen, "It seems that Smearketch and his brush move very quickly. Use Beta Mode to slow him down!"
"Got it, Hoot! Megazord Formation, Beta Mode!" Stacy shouted.
The rangers held on as the Time Jets were floating up in the air. Time Jets 2 and 3 were flying up vertically. The jets folded as blue arms appeared. Time Jets 4 and 5 were flying below as the jets folded, turning into legs. Time Jet 1 formed to become the chest. All the jets combined as the front of the jet opened, revealing a blue helmet.
Looking across, the Time Flyer started flying over toward the Megazord.
"Time Blaster!"
The Time Flyer folded into a white laser pistol with two black nozzles poking out. Picking it up, the Time Force Megazord Beta landed on the ground, picking up the blaster.
Smearketch laughed as he used his brush, "Allow me to… SKETCH!"
Sketching across, he created a purple assault rifle in the air. Finishing the last touch, a purple glow surrounded it as the rifle dropped in his hands. Smearketch laughed as he pulled the safety, "Full Auto!"
A shower of purple bullets formed as they aimed for the Time Force Megazord. The Time Force Megazord jumped up and used its Time Blaster to shoot it. Smearketch jumped up as he pulled the trigger, shooting the Megazord. As the Megazord flew across, it was heading toward a series of clouds.
"Virtual Matrix!" Stacy shouted.
The Megazord bounced back from the clouds as the Time Blaster aimed. Blue beams struck as the assault rifle was hit. As the rifle exploded, the brush fell down to the ground, landing in the street. As Smearketch went to grab it, the Time Force Megazord shot it with its blaster. Blue beams struck it as it exploded, "Ahhhh!" he shouted.
"Now…," said Hoot on the screen, "Change Modes, Freeze Compress!"
"Change Formation! Megazord Formation, Alpha Mode!" Setsuna shouted.
A blue aura surrounded the Time Force Megazord as it split back into five jets. In a flash of red light, the jets transformed into their own zords. Iron Valiant folded its weapon as it transformed into an arm with Luxray. Luxray transformed into arm as the tail shrunk, legs folded with a hand forming. The two arms floated across as the Empoleon Zord split into two legs. The head shrunk as the body split. The Torterra Zord shrunk its head and arms, becoming the chest as the tree detached, becoming the shield. The Infernape jumped up as it crossed its arms and legs. The Infernape combined with the Torterra as its head popped up. The other zords connected with it. The tree was held, becoming a shield.
The rangers this time landed in a cockpit, with red lights. Setsuna appeared with her console, "Time Force Megazord Saber!"
A pink blade, similar to Iron Valiant's lance appeared. It was a pink blade with a silver hilt and blue crystal with black and gold lights.
Smearketch freaked out as the Time Force Megazord stood across. Stacy nodded as she reached for her controls, "Let's go!"
Stacy pressed a button on the joystick. A red aura surrounded it as a duplicate saber appeared, the same as the Time Force Megazord Saber. Pulling it out, she stretched it out as two blades on either side stretched out, exactly like the Megazord. As the Megazord stretched it, the same thing happened. A green clock appeared behind it as the clouds and skies got darker.
"Blizzard Strike!"
A teal aura surrounded the Megazord Saber as it slashed Smearketch. Upon contact, a yellow and green energy slash surrounded the criminal as he screamed. Smearketch froze as Stacy turned to the screen, "Time's up!"
3… 2… 1… FREEZE!
"Persira, I love you!"
The screams of Smearketch echoed as he landed on the ground, causing an explosion. As the explosions appeared, Smearketch shrunk into a miniature. The skies began to brighten as the rangers were looking at the screen. Stacy placed her saber in the slot, "Case closed."
The Megazord began to glow in a red aura as the Time Force Jets materialized, heading back to their time. Stacy landed on the ground as she revealed her Time Force Badge, sealing Smearketch in the capsule.
Sunyshore Airport…
The rangers were dashing toward the airport as they were at the airport security. As the four rangers froze, Stacy grinned as she was talking to Pedro. Pedro grinned as he turned to look at her, "I wish I could stay, but I have an art expo in Castelia."
Stacy grinned as she turned to him, "I get it. You have a dream. I love that dream."
Pedro smiled as he looked at her, "You do?"
Stacy blushed as she turned away, "I do… you have a lot to offer, Pedro. And I think you are going to be a fantastic artist."
Pedro grinned as he looked at Stacy, hugging her. As she hugged back, Pedro grinned as he gave her a black portfolio. Stacy looked at it as she opened it, noticing it was a sketch of her. She closed it as she turned to him, "For me?"
"Consider it a…. until we meet again portrait," said Pedro, walking away. As he stepped on the horizontal escalator. He and his Smeargle were waving goodbye. As she waved goodbye, she turned around as she was looking at the exit. She stopped, looking at the other rangers who were watching.
"So," said Mason, grinning, "What's in that folder thingy?"
"None of your business," said Stacy.
"Oh come on, Stacy. Please?!" asked Xavier, looking at her.
"I said…. And I quote… no!" said Stacy, walking away, holding her portfolio. The rangers were questioning her as she went to leave. As she started in a run, the others followed her. As they were dashing away from the airport, Rey and Ben were looking at the five of them. After seeing them up close, their business with the rangers were terminated and they had to work on another case. As they finished investigating, Rey noticed the rangers only because of them laughing around.
"Over a portrait?" asked Rey, looking at Ben. Ben turned to Rey as he sat down, "You seem bummed."
"Well, it's not everyday you get to see the Time Force Rangers up close," he said, "Come on, we need to report to the Lieutenant about the case."
"What about the house that was shot up by the rangers?" asked Rey.
"… You know how many cases we have unsolved. She won't be happy," Ben replied, rolling his eyes as he drove away from the area. They were excited to see them, but it would be nice to solve… at least one case.

Next… Time Force!
Mason: Curious photos here…
Setsuna: Of what?
Xavier: Oh, that's the history of the lighthouse!
Volkner: The Sunyshore Lighthouse and the Olivine Lighthouse have a connection.
Capone: Do whatever it takes to make sure we get what we are looking for!
Mason: I am going to go figure this out.
Carl: Well… we have a criminal to arrest, that's going to have to wait.
Poké Rangers Time Force Chapter 9: Mystery of the Lighthouse
A/N: So, this was THE first only Timeranger story adaptation. Unlike Chapter 6, where there was fight footage, Chapter 8's story never made it to Time Force. But, it was nice to see something cool. Poor Rey though. He will never know… lol
So, the next chapter is kind of an original. Mystery of the Lighthouse is inspired by a couple episodes, so yeah. We hope you enjoy! It will be out soon, now that real life is hitting real hard as the holiday season starts. You might want to keep an eye out though... things get a little interesting from here on out. Happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate it!
