And I'm back everybody! Sorry for the wait, but I wanted to post a few chapters for my Star Wars story, so I don't really have any excuses for keeping you all waiting.
I have decided that I will be splitting this story into parts. Part 1, the one you are currently reading covers season one and two. Part two will cover seasons 3, 4, and Two Heroes. Part 3 will cover seasons 5, Hero's Rising, and World Heroes' Mission. Part 4 will cover seasons 6, 7 and the newest movie that's coming out. I am really excited for it, and I'll have to find a way to incorporate Nejire into that movie.
Of course, I do also plan on including the trips the rangers will be taking to other worlds, which appears that the first one they visit is the world of our favorite Fire Dragon Slayer and his talking blue tomcat. But first, we have a couple of chapters to cover before we reach the first interdimensional trip. Chapters that involve the new zords, a few new allies from another world, a world that has it's own version of the Power Rangers, ones that know how to make it showy.
But we've lost more great people this year. Along with James Earl Jones, Carl Weathers, and Toby Keith, we've lost Yuka Motohashi who played Yellow Racer in Carranger, Taiki Matsuno who voiced Pierre in Gogo V, Shurikenger in Hurricaneger and various other Super Sentai characters, along with Tom Wyner, the man who voiced Furio, along with various other monsters, anime characters and Grimlock from Transformers: Robots in Disguise. They will be missed.
Now, I am trying to figure out on how I would bring in Billy into my story but am hitting a roadblock. If anyone has any ideas on how I could bring Billy into my story, I'm willing to hear anyone out on how to bring in the original blue ranger, and I need some help in trying to write his scenes, I'm not good when it comes to all that science stuff or big words.
But, for those of you who were asking about the Stratoforce and Centaurus Megazords, I've got a plan for those two megazords.
Also, I got someone who I commissioned to make some artwork for my story.
Now let's respond to those reviews.
Clynch13: I plan on including the Hero Killer Arc, and the chapter where the students of Class 1-A get their hero names. Auric the Conqueror? Now that's something I have been considering. The Phantom Ranger, now that might help me with some of the zords that were mentioned in previous chapters, well the ones that were destroyed anyway. Cestria? The 2017 movie? Those are some unknowns at the moment.
Wolfy322: I never really thought about Zeltrax, but it's possible that he might appear.
Megan: Can you not use your real name or tell me anything about your life? If you are who I think you are, please keep that stuff personal.
Luffy L Deathwalker: Thanks.
DCD Gojira: Aside from Shoto, I have a few ideas on some students that could potentially become rangers. And yes, Peter Cullen's birthday was July 28th, 1941, four months before Pearl Harbor and when the world was truly thrown into war.
Aztec 13: While I will agree that Endeavor is many things I think the real reason he want's to get stronger and become the next number one hero is due to what he witnessed as a young man, which made him want to become a hero in the first place. As for his relationship with his family, I will say that he failed as a father, but he does try to atone for his sins, which does say he does want to make amends. Of course, I do agree that his earlier character was a real piece of work.
KaijuEmperor: Well, I was planning on having Bakugo lose the Sports Festival, but when it came to the outcome of the Sports Festival, I was batting fifty-fifty on whether I would have Izuku win, like he did in Transformers/MHA 2: Earthrise, by the Omni-Remnant or have someone else win the festival. As for the whole He-Man thing, I will agree, the 2002 series was in my opinion the best and really wished they continued with that series. Hell, it's the first time I ever heard Cam Clarke, the guy who voiced Adam and He-Man, or was it his role as Jack Archer in Robotech: Battle cry? Hard to remember. Teaming up with the Justice League or Avengers? Well, that would be cool, if I hadn't characters like Superman or the Hulk. Hell, I was once experimenting on an Avengers: Earths Mightiest Heros and Power Rangers crossover long ago. If I did that, I would have gone with the Master Morpher being use by the one Ranger that would join the Avengers. Tommy is the best ranger of all time.
Monster King: Thank you.
Lord Salazar: Spark Extractor? Dark Saber? Hmmm, that's an interesting idea.
Que those opening credits!
Power Rangers… Lightspeed! Lightspeed Rescue!
(The Camera flies over the water as the Rescue Bay rises from the ocean floor, with the five Rangers standing on top of it and looking at U.A Highschool in the distance.)
The Signal is calling, our planet is falling, the danger will test you. Better make it Lightspeed Rescue!
(All Five Rangers flip open their morphers and morph, ready for battle, then repel down, landing on the ground as they rush forward and leap through a wall of fire.)
Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue!

Light… Speed… Go!
(The rangers come to a stop, as a horde of monsters, foot soldiers and villains stand in front of them, ready for battle. Behind the rangers, various heroes and students, Jason in his ranger form, along with Kane, Chris, Selwyn, Juni, Yang, Stacey, Rick, Zen-Aku, Vergil, Anna, Natsuo, Fuyumi, Jack, Emily, Reina, Reggie, Archie, Shinso, Wes, Robo Knight, and Eric along with the silhouettes of three other rangers and their zords appear behind them, brandishing their weapons while another set of zords appear with the Lightspeed symbol appearing behind them.)
Powers on its way. Rangers save the day.
(In front of them, shrouded by shadows is All For One, with Olympius and Shigaraki standing near him while Koragg has his sword drawn as the large group of enemies' charges towards the heroes.)

Chapter 29: Decade
Downtown Tokyo
March 9th 2221
10:00 AM
Dozens of Metropolitan Police officers took cover behind their squad cars, training their revolvers at the entrance of the largest bank in downtown Tokyo. Armored vehicles came to a stop, from which several Special Assault Team soldiers pilled out, submachine guns in hand as Edgeshot, the Ninja Hero leapt from a roof top, landing in the center of the officers. "What's the situation, officer?" Edgeshot asked the lead officer.
"Officers were responding to a 211 in progress and confirmed that several villains took over this bank and are holding the staff and customers hostage. These villains have got some dangerous quirks, one of them was able to do a number on the officers." The officer explained, gesturing to the wounded officers who had a chunk of their legs bitten off by what must have been a shark. "They also got some thugs with guns inside and are threatening to kill the hostages unless we give them the newest SUV and let them walk away. They've already made it clear they don't want to negotiate. Silver Guardians are on route, but we…" they went on before the sound of gunfire echoed from inside the bank.
"ALL UNITS! MOVE IN!" The officer shouted, the SAT members rushing up the stairs with Edgeshot manipulating his body to becoming as flat as paper, squeezed through the gap underneath the door and entered the bank, where he saw an unusual site.
All of the villains and their henchmen laid on the ground, unconscious, their weapons scattered across the floor along with hundreds of spent bullet casings. The hostages, all bound and gagged were unharmed as the police breached the door, rushing inside. From the balcony above, an armored figure leapt down into the light, standing in front of the police who surrounded the figure. This figure wore violet armor, with a white book like object at their side with a horizontal black stripe running through the center. Their helmet had two green trapezoid-shaped eyes and a yellow dot on the center of their forehead. Black lining went down the center of the mystery person's while a white X covered their chest, with what looked like barcodes on the armor. "Freeze! Get on the ground! Place your hands on your head! Now!" one of the SAT soldiers shouted.
Edgeshot raised a hand, forcing the soldiers to lower their weapons as he stepped towards the newcomer. "Who are you? A hero I haven't heard of. Are you a Power Ranger?" the ninja hero asked.
"I'm just a passing through hero." The armored person said, then vanished right in front of the eyes of the hero and the police, just as the Silver Guardians arrived.
Rescue Bay/Rescue Lab
10:30 AM
"This energy reading is definitely tied to the Grand Cross." Diabolico told the doctor as he, Mondo, Loki, Jessica and Mint examined the energy they detected during the Sports Festival. "However, I don't sense any kind of negative energy like when Olympius or Trakenna returned. It might be related to the Red Rangers dreams, but that is only a theory."
"Connor-San's dreams are certainly unusual." Mondo agreed. "Yet, it is possible that the Grand Cross could open up dimensional portals to other worlds, ones that lack quirks or rangers. A world with monstrous looking stuffed animals, a flying blue cat with wings, World War 2 aircraft and girls dressed as maids and such fighting unusual looking ships, it does farfetched, but given the age we live in, anything is possible."
"Aren't we forgetting about something?" Loki spoke up. "With every passing day, the Grand Cross grows stronger every day and more and more fallen foes are coming back from the dead and now we've got Trakenna and Vypra to worry about. Not to mention that Queen Bansheera is still alive but trapped in the Shadow World. If Olympius finds a way to bring her back to this world, then the battles ahead will become more difficult. But Diabolico is right, this energy reading is different."
"Then it is imperative that we complete the new zords." Professor Kubota said as he walked into the lab. "Given that our enemies are gathering quirks for their monsters, the rangers will need more firepower to defeat them." the professor then removed his glasses and rubbed his eyes. "Unfortunately, we are running into some problems with finishing the zords, but I believe that I might know someone who can help complete the zords."
"You are referring to the CEO and engineer of a certain company, aren't you?" Jessica inquired. "The same company that a certain group of people were using at Angel Lake, right?"
"Well, his company is one of the best when it comes to developing support items and vehicles for heroes, and considering that they research Trizyrium Crystals, along with their partners, Bio-Lab, they have the equipment and resources to help finish these zords." The NASADA Professor said with a smirk. "By the way, where is Connor-San and the other rangers?"
"Connor went to Minato. He said he wanted to pay his respects to the one the people of Japan consider a symbol of loyalty and fidelity." Jessica answered. "The others went to go check on Ingenium. Given that he was attacked by the Hero Killer, they figured they would try to establish a pattern of attack, try to predict his next move."
Aoyama Cemetery
Minato Tokyo
1:00 PM
Flowers in hand, Connor placed them in front of the grave belonging to Hachiko and his master, Hidesaburo Ueno. "May the two of you continue to rest peacefully and watch over those who have dogs much like you had, Professor." Connor said, bowing his head to graves, then walked away from the grave where he saw Izuku, his arm still held in a cast following his injuries from the Sports Festival, holding Cody's leash in his good arm, who sat quietly by Izuku's feet. "Sorry to have you do this on one of your days off from school. I know you're still recovering from the surgery you had, but I just…" Connor began to tell his friend.
"O-oh, it's ok." Izuku assured and stammered. "I mean, you did say that you wanted to visit the grave of these two when you were staying abroad, but we never had a chance to visit. S-so it's ok."
"Hey man, if you're still upset about the outcome of the festival, don't be." Connor told his best friend. "I told you when we were training, that while winning would be an excellent outcome, you don't have to dominate the competition. Besides, you didn't get knocked out in the first round. You get second place and that's something to be proud of."
"Y-yeah, you make a good point." Izuku agreed, turning his head to the jumbotron nearby which was broadcasting the report about the attack on Ingenium. "But Iida. His brother…" he said sadly.
"I know." Connor said, equally upset as the two left the cemetery. "It doesn't make sense. Ingenium wasn't the type of hero to focus on his public image, the money he was paid or rank on the charts. When Magmavore first attacked, he didn't wait to be called on by the government, he acted on his own and rushed into the action, helping everyone he could when the attack came. Hell, I spoke to him after Hosu and he told me he didn't become a hero for the money, he became a hero because he felt it was his duty, considering the legacy of his family."
"I've looked into the Iida family's history. Ever since the first Ingenium came into the public view, they've never once focused on money or fame." Izuku remembered as the two continued to walk down the streets of Minato. "I just feel so bad for them."
"Stain." Connor said with a growl. "He's killed seventeen pro-heroes and now crippled twenty-four heroes. I can understand some of the reasons why he wants to 'reform' hero society as he puts it, but killing heroes, that's not the way to go about it. I can't even imagine what would happen if he went after you and the rest of my friends." he clenched his fist at the mere thought of what could happen, before stopping. "Izuku, we need to do something."
"You mean go after the Hero Killer? We're only students and if we go after him, we'll get in trouble with the law and school. We could be expelled or even…" Izuku muttered in panic before he got a light tap on the shoulder. "Thanks."
"You're welcome and I'm not talking about going after the Hero Killer. I'm talking about being there for Iida." Connor corrected. "Iida's brother meant the world to him and seeing his older brother in the state he's in, I can only think of one emotion that he'd be thinking about right now, revenge."
"Talking about revenge?" a voice from nearby said, catching the duo's attention. Both of them turned to see a Japanese man in his early twenties with light brown hair and brown eyes, wearing a pair of khaki pants, sneakers, a red shirt underneath his black leather jacket and a magenta camera in his jacket pocket. "A wise and skilled leader once said, 'Revenge will not bring back those we have lost.' If your friend is focusing on revenge, he'll want to kill the one he his eyes set on. It will make him reckless." The man said.
"Almost sounds like you spent some time with Optimus Prime." Connor chuckled.
"He is a wise leader." The man answered. "Forgive me, I never introduced myself. I'm Tsukasa Kadoya, photographer." He then held out his hand.
"Connor Grayson, UA Highschool First Year Student, Class 1-A. This is my best friend, Izuku Midoriya, also a UA first year and student in Class 1-A." Connor introduced, shaking Tsukasa's hand. "Nice camera, old school, but it appears to be in good condition. Nice color, magenta, right?"
"Finally, someone who doesn't say the color is pink." Tsukasa joked. "Everyone I've ever met has always said it's pink. Marvelous would be laughing right now if he were here."
"S-so, does that mean you're a photographer?" Izuku asked.
"I am." Tsukasa answered. "Lately, I've been going to the sights where you and the other rangers have fought those monsters. Photographing the efforts made by the people, both quirkless and with quirks repairing the damage. Despite the damage, the people come together and rebuild what was destroyed. It's quite a site."
"So that means your quirkless, right?" Connor asked. "Well, speaking as quirkless guy myself, that takes guts. You never know what kind of damage might have gone unnoticed by heroes and aid workers. Knowing Endeavour, he'd probably tell you to get out of the way, if he was the kind of hero who helped with repairs."
"Speaking of Endeavor," Tsukasa began, gesturing to the duo to follow him down the street. "I'm questioning the methods about your friend here. Midoriya, you had a chance to win the Sports Festival, but instead you encouraged Shoto to use his flames, not only breaking your bones, but also costing you the festival."
"You saw that, didn't you?" Midoriya said with a bead of sweat dripping down the back of his neck. "Well, I…."
"I'm not sure what your goal was, but you convinced your classmate to embrace both his powers and become the hero he wants to be." Tsukasa interrupted. "You have the heart of a hero."
"That's my best friend for you. He's always doing something reckless." Connor said with a laugh. The three of them continued to laugh as they walked down the street.
Skull Cavern
The piece of Magmavore was placed on a pedestal in the center of the throne room, convulsing and beating like a heart before it glowed brightly and turned into a series of cards with a golden shaped mouth and circle in the center of it. "Ah, yes. It appears that even in death, Magmavore has left us a final gift." Jinxer said, pleased.
"These cards will give our fallen monsters more power, correct?" Furio asked.
"Oh yes. Five times more than they ever had before. No weapon in the rangers arsenal will be able to defeat a monster when infused with this card. I call them Magma Golem cards." Jinxer answered. "Five cards from one piece of Magmavore, I'll send the Batlings to search the battle site at Angel Lake for more fragments. More powerful monsters, means a greater success to destroy the rangers."
"Excellent work, Jinxer." Olympius praised. "With these cards, the fallen monsters will be able to crush the rangers with ease."
"Well, let's see what kind of destruction we can cause." Elgar said eagerly, only to be swatted away by Moltor. "Ow! You know, that really hurt you know. And why did you do that?"
"We need to determine if this card is just as powerful as Jinxer says it is, yes? Then why waste a perfectly good monster?" the flame monster pointed out.
"My brother is correct." Flurious agreed. "We need to test the card before we use them in battle."
"Well, my Ooze men would do, but I don't think they could handle the power of the card. They'd just splatter like squashed grapes." Ivan added. "But maybe we use something else. Something like, say, oh, I don't know, one of those corpses that have been heavily modified by our friends that can be given superpowers?" the master of ooze suggested.
"Are you suggesting that we use one of the Nomu, to test the strength of this card?" Olympius asked, then laughed. "Ivan, that is a brilliant idea! Jinxer, call forth one of the Nomu!"
"As you wish, my prince." Jinxer said, and snapped his fingers, summoning a lightly colored skinned Nomu into the throne room. "First, we must give it strength." He then took a vial of quirk energy and opened it, pointing it directly at the Nomu. "Little Nomu, small and frail, time to grow up big and strong!" he chanted.
The quirk energy crackled as it flew towards the Nomu, then entered its body causing the creature to gasp, almost convulsing before it fell backwards onto the floor. "Well, that was a dud." Rito shrugged, but he was wrong. The Nomu then rose up, then roared as its body glowed brightly, blinding everyone. When the light finally died down, the Nomu had stood in its new form. A black body with yellow linings on the middle of its body and feet, gray areas on the center of its legs and hands. Four lighting arresters stretched out of it's back, but's it's face was now gray with red eyes, and a black helmet sat on its head. "Ok, I was wrong."
"Ah, such power." The Nomu spoke, stretching its fingers before looking around the Skull Cavern, then set its eyes on Olympius. "Prince Olympius, my name is Volt, I am the first of many Nomu created monsters and I pledge my loyalty to you and your allies." Elec said, bowing before Olympius.
"Volt, I have a task for you. Go to the human world and attack the city. Destroy the Power Rangers and gather any quirks you can." Olympius instructed the monster, handing them a strange device. "Toss into the center of a crowd and it will extract the quirks from anyone nearby."
Volt took the device from Olympius, then bowed before leaving the Skull Cavern. His departure was noticed by Koragg who kept his presence hidden, then followed after the monster, sickened by the fact that this monster was created from another monster, that was created from the dead.
Hosu General Hospital
1:45 PM
Melissa, TJ, Anthony, and Lena stood behind Iida as he knelt by his brother's bed. The once proud hero Ingenium now laid before them, covered in wounds, with multiple IV tubes stuck into his upper body, multiple parts covered in gauze, especially a large patch over his midsection, and some over his scalp. The oxygen mask that he once needed was removed, but the surgery he had undergone had left him sleeping. "Iida, I… I don't…" Melissa started to say but chocked on the words she was searching for.
"Listen, maybe you should let your brother get some rest." Anthony interjected. "Yeah, bad choice of words, but come on, let's go outside and get some air."
"Yes, I agree." Iida said, snapping his body back up right and followed the other rangers to the hospital roof. "I appreciate that you all came to see my brother. He, he always spoke in strong support of the Power Rangers, especially after what you did in Hosu a month ago."
"Glad to know we got some support from him." TJ said, trying not to make it sound like he was joking. "Look, I know Connor isn't here, but he wanted you to know that he's sorry."
"Tensei, he… Why did it have to be him!? He still had so many people to help and inspire! He didn't deserve this!" Iida yelled. "It shouldn't have been him."
"And you're saying it would have been better if it were another hero?" Lena asked, arms crossed across her chest. "Look, bad things happen to good people, especially those who don't deserve it, but look, at least he's not dead and I think the last thing your brother would want is for you to wish this happened to someone else."
"My brother meant everything to me! He was my reason to become a hero in the first place! I wanted to be just like him! He was my role model!" Tenya cried, clenching his fists. "And that man took it away from him! He'll never be able to work as a pro again!"
"Iida! Stop and listen to yourself!" Melissa yelled, grabbing the Class 1-A representative by the shoulders and turned him around, facing her. "You're starting to sound like Connor when he learned that Weston was the one responsible for ordering the death of his parents! You want revenge and that won't change anything! Your brother may not be able to work again, but at least he's alive and there are many heroes, like him, who continue to inspire others, despite not being out in the field. But from the way you're sounding, you're planning on going after the hero killer!"
"He has to pay for what he did!" Iida shouted.
"And you think you're the one who has to take him down!? He'll kill you without a second thought!" Melissa continued. "We understand how you feel, but this isn't the way to go about it! Heroes don't seek revenge!"
As Melissa finished speaking, the generator on the roof suddenly stopped and shut down. "What the?" she gasped, just as her morpher beeped. "What's going on, Jessica?"
"We got reports of a monster draining electricity from all over Hosu! He's in the downtown area and he's got plenty of backup, plus your old pal Koragg." Jessica explained.
"Got it!" Melissa acknowledged, then turned to Iida. "Look, Iida we got to go. But please, if you are planning on going after the hero killer, at least think about what would happen if you were killed and how much people would miss you." With that, she and the other rangers ran back down the stairs, leaving Iida alone.
Downtown
2:15 PM
Civilians ran for their lives as Volt raised his hands and shot lightning at a parked car, blowing it to pieces as Cyclobots fired their blasters, knocking several people to the ground. "Hahahaha! This is a blast! I'm so loving this power and lease on life!" Volt shouted with excitement as the sound of sirens filled the air. Turning his head, Volt watched several SUVs come to a stop, allowing Wes, Eric and their unit of Silver Guardians to pile out of the vehicles and draw their blasters or handguns. "Well, well, well, looks we got some soldiers who want to die." He smirked.
"Attention Villian, you are under arrest!" Wes shouted, but Volt just snapped his fingers and ordered his Cyclobots to attack the Silver Guardians. "Open fire!" Wes shouted, firing his blaster at the nearest Cyclobot, downing it with a shot to the chest. "Kaina, take command! Eric and I got the villain!" he shouted.
Nearby, dressed in the same armor as the rest of the Silver Guardians and holding the standard blaster, Lady Nagant fired her weapon at a Cyclobot that managed to sneak up on Wes. "Understood, sir!" she replied as Wes and Eric rushed towards Volt, morphing into their ranger forms as they did.
"Power Rangers! Perfect! Just the ones I was hoping to meet!" Volt said with delight, shifting his hand into an electrically powered sword. "Now to prove my worth to Olympius!" he then charged forward, his blade held above high as Eric and Wes summoned their own bladed weapons. Electricity crackled as Volt swung his blade at Wes, who blocked it with his Chrono Sabers. "By the way, the names Volt and I'm charged up and ready to shock you to oblivion!"
"We'll see about that!" Wes retorted, swinging his blades at Volt, who blocked his attack with a second electrical blade from his other hand, using his first blade to block Eric's attack. "There's two of us and only one of you!"
"Correction!" Koragg shouted as he leapt in and swung his blade at Wes, striking the Timeforce Red Ranger in the chest. "There are two of us and now it will be a fair fight."
"I don't need your help!" Volt snarled, just as the Lightspeed Rangers arrived. "More Rangers! That means more fun." He raised his blade hands into the air, calling down lighting from the sky, striking his arresters and fueling him with more power. "Oh yeah! That's what I'm talking about! I'm all charged up and ready for battle!" he exclaimed and charged towards the rangers, knocking Wes, Eric and Connor aside, his sights focused solely on Melissa, Lena, TJ and Anthony. "I'll start with you four!"
"Hang on guys!" Connor shouted, only to be struck by Koragg's sword across the chest. "You know, I was hoping that you would actually be on our side after what happened in Angel Lake, but I guess I was hoping for too much."
"Like I told you, we are enemies now and forever." Koragg remined, raising his shield and blocking an attack from Wes and Eric's blades. "Three Red Rangers will make an excellent challenge."
As Koragg engaged the three red rangers, Volt swung his dual electric blades at Lena and Anthony, slashing them across the chest. He spun around quickly to block several blaster shots from Melissa and TJ, then raised his hands and sent lighting to the other two rangers, knocking them down to the ground. "This is too easy! I was expecting more of a challenge from you weaklings!" he taunted.
"You want a challenge, you got one!" Melissa shouted, getting back to her feet and instantly charged forward, her blaster in baton mode. Volt smirked as the pink ranger swung her weapon, which he blocked with both blades, but Melissa dropped her baton and elbowed the monster in the gut, followed by a series of punches and kicks that the monster was more than prepared for. "What kind of demon are you?"
"Demon? Hahaha! Don't make laugh! I'm no demon! I'm a Nomu!" Volt laughed, grabbing Melissa by the neck, then tossed her aside. Bringing his twin electric blades together, he turned them into an electric cannon and fired at Lena, Anthony and TJ, sending them flying towards Melissa, knocking them out of their ranger forms.
"Did he just say he was a Nomu? I thought we destroyed that thing?" Anthony grunted.
"It doesn't matter, because you're all about to be destroyed!" Volt snickered, slowly walking towards the downed rangers, ready to kill them. Charging up his arrestors with all the electricity he had stored up, he launched a sphere of condensed electricity, sending towards the rangers, but Connor who had managed to break away from Koragg, stood in front of his team with his team, taking the full brunt of the blast that unfortunately knocked him out of his ranger form. "Gotta admit, that was pretty cool, kid. But that won't save you in the end."
Suddenly, a series of gunshots rang out and struck Volt across his body. "What the? Where did that come from?!" he growled.
"Seems that everywhere I travel, evil takes more twisted forms." A voice said as leaping onto the scene, was the same individual from the bank, shouldering a sort of gun on their shoulder. "You'll leave them alone."
"Who the hell are you!?" Volt demanded.
"Kamen Rider Decade." The newly named Decade answered, opening a slot in his belt which he then slotted in a card. "ATTACK RIDE: SLASH!" a voice rang out from the belt, as Decade's gun shifted into a sword. The new hero then charged towards Volt, swinging his sword at the monster who blocked the attacks with his electrical blade arms, but Decade's attacks were somehow enhanced by the card he placed into his belt, putting Volt on the defensive.
Volt cried out in pain as Decade's next attack shattered his blades, then destroyed his arrestors. "I have to get out of here. Cyclobots! Destroy him!" Volt shouted, vanishing in a flash of lightning as the Cyclobots charged towards Decade.
"Attack Ride: Blast!" the voice from before rang out as Decade's weapon shifted back into it's ranged mode, which he then fired at the Cyclobots in rapid session, destroying them all.
"Interesting." Koragg mused, knocking away Wes and Eric before he himself retreated.
"Power down." The two Timeforce Rangers said, touching their morphers and demorphed, running towards Decade.
"Thanks for the help, but just what in the world is a Kamen Rider?" Wes asked.
"A warrior from another world, a world that has its own version of Power Rangers. But that is for another time." Decade answered, then walked away. "You should know, several people have lost their quirks." He added.
"Wait! Come back!" Eric shouted, but Decade was already gone, leaving the rangers with more questions than answers.
Skull Cavern
Watching the entire battle through a projection, Olympius and his allies were intrigued about this Kamen Rider. He proved to be a strong warrior, but at the same time also an enemy. "That was unexpected." Jinxer admitted.
"I'll say. 'Kamen Rider'. Sounds like something the kiddies would be into these days." Goldar agreed in disgust. "I thought for sure he was a new Masked Rider, but it seems I was wrong."
"Wouldn't that Masked Rider guy be dead by now?" Elgar asked.
"Whether this 'Masked Rider' individual is dead or not, we must proceed with caution. This Decade, may prove to be a challenge." Olympius said, as Volt walked into the chamber. "Ah, I see you have returned."
"I was unprepared for this new foe." Volt admitted, kneeling before the prince. "Next time, he won't be so lucky. But I do have some quirks for you." He then handed the device he was given to Olympius, which crackled with energy.
"Good work." Olympius praised, a rare sight to behold. "Prepare yourself for the next battle." The prince ordered. As Volt left, Olympius looked above him. "I wonder if the Grand Cross is behind this Rider's appearance?"
March 10th, 2221
Tatsumi Disaster Prevention Agency
10:00 AM
Although the rangers were beaten badly by the Nomu, they didn't let that stop them from preparing themselves to watch the UA third years compete in their last sports festival. Connor was especially excited to see how Mirio, Tamaki, and Nejire would perform in the festival. Sure, they did have some incredible mentors, but having not seen the any sports festivals in the past made this one all the more exciting. Of course, he was more curious about this Decade guy that showed up out of nowhere and saved their lives from that monster, but he wasn't thinking about that now.
"Nejire is going to kick some butt!" he boasted.
"Yeah, but Mirio's got his permeation quirk. He can phase through objects and get ahead of the competition." TJ countered.
"Pretty sure that Tamaki is going to let the pressure of all the people watching him get on his nerves." Lena pointed out. "Though, I don't know why we're watching the Sports Festival, considering we have seen the Big Three in action. Maybe it's because our leader's girlfriend is competing." She teased.
"Ok, first off, Nejire isn't my girlfriend. She's just a friend, who happens to be a girl." Connor rejected, with a deep blush on his face.
"And you happen to keep those photos of you and her dressed in those costumes in your wallet because she isn't your girlfriend?" the yellow ranger teased again. "Seriously, if you like her, then just tell her. Just don't forget she's trying to become a hero and having you as a boyfriend might distract her."
"We got other things to worry about then Connor's personal life." Melissa said as she walked into the common room from the lab. "I just spoke with our former enemies turned allies; they've never heard about a Kamen Rider before. It's like he never existed."
"He said he was from another world, a world with its own version of the Power Rangers. You don't think he's from a world where the rangers are evil, and the monsters are good?" Anthony added, walking down the stairs from the upper level. "From the way he spoke, it sounded like he fought alongside the rangers he knows from his world. Didn't Ivan say he was from another universe?"
Connor grabbed the TV remote and turned off the TV, then stood up. "Well, here's what we know. This Kamen Rider has a sword and gun combo, uses cards to enhance his attacks and apparently knows about us rangers. Maybe he was pulled into our world through some kind of portal?" Connor theorized.
"Perhaps." Diabolico said as he and Loki walked into the common room, in their human forms. "Or perhaps it is a diversion, and he is laying a trap for us."
"If he were laying a trap, why would he help the rangers? It doesn't make sense to me. Though, Cyclopter pulled a stunt like that a long time ago, if only to get stronger." Loki suggested.
"Maybe but…" TJ started to say before there was a knock on the door. "Did anyone order anything?"
"I didn't." Anthony answered, walking to the door and opened it. "Can I help you?"
Standing in front of the door, was Tsukasa, hands in his pockets as he glanced towards Diabolico and Loki. "So, two of Queen Bansheera's former allies are working with the rangers. You're definitely not like Hades and Cobalt." He chuckled, catching the two redeemed demons by surprise.
"How did you know we were demons?" Diabolico asked, resisting the urge to call forth his sword.
"Let's just say, I've been keeping tabs on what you and the rangers have been up too the last few months." Tsukasa answered, taking a seat at the table. "Don't worry, I'm not your enemy, but you should take a look at this." Pulling his hands out of his pockets, he pulled out a small rectangular device and placed it on the table. "Seems that someone has developed a means to take a person's quirk, completely and store it for later use."
"Is that even possible?" Lena asked. "More to the point, where did you get this?"
"Seems your friends in the Silver Guardians missed this when they tending to the injured bystanders from yesterday's attack." Tsukasa answered, getting back to his feet. "Just thought you all."
As Tsukasa left the building, the rangers and their allies looked at the device with curiosity, was Tsukasa, right? Did Olympius and his allies develop a means to take a person's quirk or was he lying. Either way, it left them more questions than answers, answers which Connor and Melissa were going to get. "Bring that to Jessica and the doc, see if they can make any heads or tails about this thing." Connor instructed, grabbing his jacket, as did Melissa with her own jacket and bolted after Tsukasa.
Though they were quick to follow after the mysterious man, both the red and pink rangers lost sight of him only thirty minutes later. "Man, that guy is an odd one. Way different then the guy Izuku and I met yesterday." Connor mused.
"Wait, you met him yesterday?" Melissa questioned.
"Well, yeah. But he more approached us when we were in Minato." Connor answered. "Said he was a photographer and photographed the efforts of people with and without quirks working together to repair the damages caused by villains. But now I'm not so sure."
Melissa was about to speak when she noticed something. It was a two-story building with a sign that read in Japanese 'Hikari Studio'. "I don't recall seeing that building before." She mused aloud, walking towards the building with her brother right behind her.
"Ok, I know we haven't been living in Japan for a long time, but you'd think we'd remember seeing this building every day." Connor agreed. "Well, I mean, I lived in Japan for a couple of months when I was studying abroad, but I never saw this building before."
As they talked, the door to building opened up, revealing an elderly Japanese man with white hair, brown eyes and glasses wearing a brown dress vest over a brown-striped, white dress shirt, black pants and shoes. "Oh, I didn't know we had visitors. I'm Ejiro Hikari, the proprietor of this studio. And if I'm not mistaken, you two are the red and pink lightspeed Power Rangers." The man greeted.
"Must have seen us during our debut battle last year." Melissa guessed. "Sorry to bother you sir, but we were looking for someone and spotted your building…"
"And you immediately suspected that this building belonged to a villain, yes?" Ejiro guessed, then let out a hearty laugh. "Don't worry, this building isn't the hide out for a villain, it's just a simple photo studio. Please, come in."
Reluctantly, the two rangers stepped inside the building and were amazed at the various backdrops inside. One was of a rundown building with a windmill in a forested area near the mountains. The second was of a village hidden deep in the mountains, with buildings reminiscent of ancient Japan, with several faces carved into the mountain behind it. From a glance, it was clear that the village was about to celebrate a special occasion.
The third backdrop was of an unknown city with flaming contrails flying through the air, but it wasn't a plane, it looked more human-like. The fourth was an area in a lavish city, presumably a marketplace with people going about their daily lives.
The fifth backdrop was an aerial shot of a naval base of some kind, but not from the past or current navy bases. The sixth was of a city with a monorail system traveling above the street while odd looking robots that resembled garbage cans moved along the streets, collecting garbage.
The seventh backdrop appeared to be nothing but a black void, but actually it was of deep space, with multiple rings floating in space with something traveling through the rings like it was a highway or something. The eighth and final backdrop, was anything but peaceful looking. Wrecked tanks, soldiers of various nationalities firing their weapons at something around the base of a volcano, but whatever it was it brought terror to the faces of the soldiers. "Ok, aside from the last one being rather disturbing, the rest of them seem rather pleasant." Melissa said, rather uneasy.
"These backdrops, some of them look familiar." Connor said, his eyes fixated on the backdrop of the naval base. "These places, where have I seen them before?"
"Ah, so you did follow me after all." Tsukasa said as he came down the stairs, with a Japanese girl of nineteen years old, with long black hair and brown eyes. "I should have expected you to follow me, but I honestly thought you would be focusing on Volt."
"Wait, how do you know the name of that monster?" Connor asked.
Tsukasa chuckled, before he moved to the backdrop of the city with the flaming contrails in the air. "You've seen many of these places, haven't you, Red Ranger? Not surprising, considering the Grand Cross's power is increasing each day."
"What do you know about my brothers' dreams?" Melissa asked.
"They are not just dreams, but visions." The girl answered. "Tell me, have you heard of the multiverse theory?"
"You mean the theory that multiple realities exist outside of our own? Like ones where wizards and witches live amongst normal humans, a world where humans have achieved interstellar travel but are engaged in a war for survival against some kind of alien insect race, or something out of Star Wars? Yeah, but it's all just science fiction." Connor answered. "Isn't it?"
"It is real, but not as trivial as you have described." Tsukasa chuckled. "Picture a world, where the Axis powers won World War 2, with the Third Reich controlling the east coast and the Japanese Empire controlling the west coast. A world where the Third Reich wins World War 2 and controls the world. A world where the supernatural and living coexist in secret. A world similar to ours, yet landmasses and history are different." He paused, impressively. "The universe is full of many different worlds, all of which are different, yet have their own heroes, though not like the Power Rangers."
Melissa and Connor stood in silence as Tsukasa spoke. "Just who are you? It's pretty obvious that you're not from Japan, at least the Japan we know of." Melissa asked. However, just before Tsukasa could answer, her morpher beeped, on a frequency used by Jason. "What is it, Jason?"
"Your friend from yesterday is back again. He's in Osaka and he's doing a lot of damage. I'm already on route, but you guys might want to get a move on and back me up." The wielder of the Master Morpher said with urgency over the morpher.
"Got it! We'll be right there." Melissa said, then looked back to Tsukasa, the girl and Ejiro. "Duty calls, we got work to do." She told the three, then pressed a button on her morpher, as did Connor and the two of them teleported away in a streak of red and pink energy.
"Looks like you were right. This world is facing dangers far greater than it's every realized." The girl said to Tsukasa.
"Natsumi, is my bike ready?" Tsukasa asked.
"Yes. It's ready." The now named Natsumi answered.
"I'm heading out. They'll need help." Tsukasa said, running out of the building and to the storage unit where his bike was kept.
Downtown Osaka
11:00 AM
Explosions echoed across the downtown area as Volt launched lightning from his hands, blowing up several cars as civilians ran for their lives. Adding to the chaos, where Batlings throwing their grenades and firing their rocket launchers, knocking several police officers and Silver Guardians to the ground.
"LUNA ARC!" Mirko shouted, running towards a rocket launcher totting Batling which she slammed into the ground with a powerful axe kick, literally breaking the ground beneath her. "Finally, I get a chance to fight you bastards! I've been looking forward to this for a long time!" she said with a grin.
She soon found herself surrounded by several Batlings, all of whom had their swords drawn. "All of you for little ol me? I'm flattered. Alright, who want's a piece of this wabbit?" She taunted. One foot soldier swung its sword at Mirko, but she blocked it and sent it flying with an uppercut, followed by a spinning kick that sent another one flying into a wrecked car. Leaping backwards, she then rushed forward and kicked a dozen or so batlings as she cartwheeled through them. "Oh yeah, you guys are really giving me a good workout, I'm really enjoying this." She said with a grin.
At that moment, Jason leapt overhead, clad in a black bodysuit with gold diamonds on the legs and arms, golden shoulder armor, and golden trimmings on his wrists and boots. In the center of the bodysuit, was the symbol of the Dino Thunder rangers, while his helmet had a black visor with a Brachiosaurus theme with jagged teeth all over. At his hip, was a staff with a Brachiosaurus handle. "Need a hand?" Jason asked, drawing his staff to block an attack from a Batling.
"Oh, hell yeah! I get to fight alongside the rangers. But where are those Lightspeed kids?" Mirko asked with excitement. She got her answer as teleporting down, already morphed were the Lightspeed rangers. "Oh yeah, now this is going to be one hell of a party!"
"Mirko? Looks like we got a pro backing us up!" TJ said, running towards the enemy. Grabbing the arm of one Batling, he kicked it in the ribs, then punched it in the stomach. Another Batling swung its sword at him, but he grabbed its head and slammed it down on the pavement, sweeping a third one of its feet, then leapt back to his feet and drove his fist into the chin of a fourth.
Lena backflipped several times, drawing her blaster and fired at several Batlings, sending them to the ground. One of them was able to throw a grenade at her feet, but she blasted it out of the air before it could hit the ground, taking out a few bad guys in the explosion. "As long as she's not like Endeavour or any other hero that thinks we're not needed, I'm cool with working with her." She called out, raising her blaster and forearms to block three swords, before knocking them away.
"Yeah, that sounds like Endeavour! He might be the Number 2 hero in Japan, but he's not the friendliest of heroes." Mirko chirped, kicking away a few Batlings with a strong kick. "Oh, and let's not forget his position on you rangers. Guys a stick up his ass so long, it might as well be a…"
"Can we not put that image in our heads!?" Anthony begged, kicking a Batling into a wrecked table, then punched another three times. "That's the last thing we need to think about."
"I'm with Anthony on this." Connor agreed, cutting down a Batling with his baton, then quickly brought it behind him to block a strike from behind. "None of us want to be thinking about that stuff. Hell, I didn't even want to hear about it." Cutting down another Batling, he spotted Volt heading towards his sister. "Sis, you got company!"
Melissa kicked a Batling to the ground, then spun around and raised her arms, catching the sword of another Batling, which she then knocked out of its hand followed by a heavy punch to its head. Spinning on her heel, she soon found herself face-to-face with Volt who swung his electric blades at her, striking her in the chest and knocking her to the ground. "Thanks for the heads up." She groaned.
"It will be the last one you ever get!" Volt taunted, his fists cracking with electricity as he punched Melissa in the chest several times, then slashed at her with his electric blade. "I'll start with you first!" His bladed hand raised high, he was about to bring it down on Melissa, only for Jason to block it with his staff. "Damn punk!"
Jason didn't respond as he swung his staff at Volt, who blocked it with his blade. The two traded blow after blow, neither one of them giving the other a chance to hit the other. Eventually, the two locked their weapons with the others, only for Volt to kick Jason in the chest, allowing him to strike the black ranger in the chest.
"Jason!" Connor called out as he ran towards his ally, with the other rangers and Mirko. "You, ok?"
"I'm good." Jason assured, getting back to his feet.
"You won't be for long!" Volt said, raising his arms into the air and calling on the power of lightning. "Electric Blaze!" he shouted, sending a sphere of electricity towards Mirko and the rangers, striking them and knocking them to the ground. "Well, it's been fun, but I've got work to do. I got quirks to steal and a prince to make happy. But first I'll destroy you."
His hands transformed into blades once more, Volt started to move to the downed rangers before the sound of a motorcycle engine filled the air. Turning his head, he saw a Honda DN-01 Motorcycle with a magenta front barreling towards him, moments before he jumped aside and rolled along the ground. "Who dares!?"
"I do." Tsukasa said, getting off the motorcycle and turned to the monster. "Your rampage ends here, monster."
"Who are you!?" Volt demanded with a snarl.
"Just a passing through Kamen Rider. Remember that." Tsukasa answered, revealing a silver belt around his waist. Taking a card into his hand, he slotted it into the belt and said, 'Henshin.'
"Kamenride: Decade!" a voice from the belt said aloud as a grey suit of armor materialized over Tsukasa's body, followed by a series of red cards that threw themselves onto the armor, turning from grey to magenta and his eyes flashed green.
"Kamen Rider: Decade." Tsukasa announced, much to the surprise of the rangers and Mirko. "I've been watching this world to see if the heroes of this world need my help. They do, and that makes me your enemy." He said, pointing at Volt who was soon surrounded by more Batlings.
"Then I guess that means I'll destroy you first! Get him!" Volt commanded, sending the Batlings towards Tsukasa. Taking a card from his weapon, he slotted a card into it and transformed it into a gun. "Attack Ride: Blast!"
Casually walking towards Volt, Tsukasa aimed his gun and fired at the Batlings, downing several of them but some were able to surround him. Punching a Batling in the chest, Tsukasa then kicked another one in the leg, firing his gun at several more Batlings. His shots slammed into the chests of the demon foot soldiers, one of which fell face first into the salad that was left behind by one of the civilians. Unlike the rangers' blasters, this weapon fired a sort of energy bullet that packed a punch like that of a heavy machine gun. "Let's switch things up." Tsukasa said, taking out another card and inserting it into his weapon.
"Attack Ride: Slash!" came the voice of his weapon, which then transformed into a sword, which Tsukasa then raised to parry an attack from a Batling, cutting it down with a vertical slash, followed by a horizontal slash on a second Batling. Several more Batlings surrounded Tsukasa, bringing their own swords down onto his blade and forcing Tsukasa to a knee, but he pushed back up, knocking their blades away before cutting them down with ease.
Tsukasa then charged towards Volt, his sword clashing with Volt's blade as the two traded blow after blow with each other, while the rangers and Mirko looked in awe.
"Friend of yours?" Mirko grunted.
"He is now." Anthony grunted, getting back to his feet. "You guys thinking what I'm thinking?"
"If you mean the new weapons, then yeah, let's use them." Lena agreed.
"Then let's do it! V-Lancers!" Melissa shouted, summoning the V-Lancers, lance-like weapons with a V-shaped handle in the center and a blade below the barrel, each of them in the corresponding colors of each of the rangers. All five rangers twirled their weapons around and held them at the ready.
"Damn, you kids got some nice gear." Mirko whistled, cracking her knuckles. "You take care of the electric bastard; I'll take care of the small fry. Oh, and before you start thinking that's an order, it ain't, it's more practical."
With that declaration, Mirko leapt towards the Batlings with a flying kick, which sent one of them into the side of a building with a such a force, it left an imprint of the creature on the wall. "Oh yeah! I love this part of the job! Getting to cut lose and kick ass on all the small fry I want!" she said with glee, followed by a strong uppercut to another foot soldier. "Let's try for a homerun!"
Running towards the remaining Batlings, she grabbed onto a lamppost, swung herself around it and slammed her legs into the Batlings, sending them flying through the air. "And it's outta here! A homerun!" she cried out with a smirk.
The Rangers and Tsukasa noticed the flying Batlings as they charged towards Volt, his hands once again in their electrical sword mode. "New weapons won't stop me, rangers! I'm a Nomu with intelligence and you ain't gonna beat me!" Volt taunted.
"We'll see about that!" TJ shouted, swinging his weapon at Volt, who raised his weapon in an effort to block the strike, but TJ's attack struck Volt's chest. Lena followed suit with a strike on Volt's back, causing the monster to cry out in pain.
Melissa and Anthony then charged in, swinging their own weapons at Volt, who raised his blades to block their strikes, this time blocking the attacks, but this left him open to an attack by Connor and Tsukasa who slashed him across the chest. "Let's finish this! Blaster mode!" Connor shouted, attaching his blaster grip onto the end of his weapon, which the other rangers did as Tsukasa switched his weapon back into its gun mode and slotted in a card.
"Final Attack Ride: Blast!" the same voice called out as Tsukasa took aim at Volt, followed by a series of cards that appeared out of thin air, fired a highly pixilated energy blast through the cards which struck Volt in the chest.
"Spectra Blast!" Lena shouted. All five rangers aimed their weapons and fired upwards, the blasts combining into a large 'V', then with Melissa and Anthony crouching, sent the blast towards Volt, impacting him on the chest and exploded in a massive fireball.
"Nice work kids!" Mirko smirked, then turned to Tsukasa. "Same for you, stranger."
But the job wasn't finished yet. From balcony nearby, Jinxer held the Golem card in his hand and began a chant. "I've got just the thing to perk you up. Fallen Nomu all over the floor, pull yourself together and fight some more with more power than before!" he chanted, throwing the card to the remains of the Nomu monster.
The card glowed brightly after it landed on Volt's remains, which then rose into the air like a whirlwind, reforming Volt's body, but the monster had undergone a transformation. Its arrestors were now totally embedded into his back, his hands now replaced with electric blades and his face now looked truly demonic, with big eyes. He let out a feral roar then stomped his massive feet, causing the ground to shake while Mirko, Decade and the rangers rolled out of the way.
"Rescue Zords!" TJ shouted into his morpher.
Flown in by the by Aero Rescue 3 and transported the other four rescue zords on a large platform, which rolled off the platform, allowing the rangers to quickly form the Lightspeed Megazord, with Mirko in the cockpit of Melissa's zord. "Alright, let's kick this guy's ass!" she exclaimed.
Volt just roared and charged towards the megazord, slashing at it with his bladed hands before the rangers could even react. His twin blades slashed across the chest of the Lightspeed Megazord, knocking it back a few inches. "Alright, let's try this! Screw Spin Ladder!" Anthony spat, taking their megazord into a spin with its ladder arms extended in a lariat.
"Rapid Ladder Bomber!" Lena shouted, the massive fists of the megazord slamming into Volt's chest, but barely put a scratch on him.
"Ha! That tickled! Try this on for size rangers! Electric spin" Volt shouted, spinning around like a tornado and slashed at the Megazord, knocking it back and causing a series of explosions inside the megazord.
"How is this guy so tough!? You kicked his ass earlier, but now he's stronger!" Mirko pointed out.
"I don't know, but let's find out. Scanner online!" Melissa grunted, pressing a button on her controls and activated the megazords scanners. A scan of the monster appeared on her helmet's display, and he soon found out why the monster was stronger. "There's no way that's possible! This thing, its quirk, it's been enhanced! Olympius must have found some way to enhance its strength!"
"And for those of us who don't understand a word you said?" Mirko asked, confused by Melissa's explanation.
"It means the Megazord can't handle it." Melissa answered, putting her hand to her helmet. "At least not this Megazord. Rail Rescues! On Track!"
(Start Chou-Kyodai Robo! Grand Liner)
Whistling almost fit to burst as it rushed down the rails, the Rail Rescues came to a screeching halt just as Volt delivered yet another hit to the Lightspeed Megazord. "Disengaging Lightspeed Megazord." Melissa called out, breaking the Megazord down into the five rescue zords, returning them to Rail Rescues while she and the other rangers took their positions in the cockpit, with Mirko and Tsukasa by their sides. "Full power to engines!" she shouted, pushing forward on the controls, sending the Rail Rescues down the tracks.
Ahead of them, their rail network materialized into the take off ramp, which the Rail Rescues rocketed up and into the air, forming the Supertrain Megazord which screeched along the tracks, slamming its fist into Volt that sent him flying. "Ok, sis, you mind cluing us into what you figured out?" Connor asked his sister.
"Just watch." Melissa replied and activated the Gatling Blasters and Missiles, then hit the fire button, sending a barrage of bullets and missiles that slammed into Volt, actually causing him pain. "I was right, the Supertrain's weapons can break through its armor! Whatever Olympius used to give this monster a pick me up, it must have enhanced its armor." She explained.
"You only cracked the armor. You need to crack it open a little more." Tsukasa pointed out, which Mirko nodded.
"How about you kids let me take a kick at it." Mirko joked, grabbing Connor by the shoulder and forcibly removed him from his seat and grabbed the controls. "LUNA ARC! MEGAZORD STYLE!" she shouted, raising the Supertrain's right leg and delivered a massive axe kick that knocked Volt to the ground. "Oh yeah, that cracked it's shell!"
"Let's finish this!" Connor said, taking his place back at the controls. "Switching weapons!" he shouted and pushed the controls forward, attaching the front ends of Rail Rescues 1 and 2 to the fists of the Supertrain. "Raging fists! Call upon the firestorm!"
Power flowed through the weapons of the Supertrain as Volt charged towards the Megazord, which proved to be a big mistake as the rangers unleashed the power of the Grand Storm, slamming into Volt's chest before the monster fell forwards and exploded. "Monster down." Connor announced.
(End Song)
Skull Cavern
However, Olympius and his allies had witnessed the battle between their Nomu monster and the rangers, plus their new ally, Kamen Rider Decade. "A Kamen Rider? Seems like a worthy opponent." Koragg mused, then turned to Olympius. "However, I detest the idea of infusing a Nomu with demonic powers and giving them sentience. Such actions are foolish and could result in them turning against us." He advised.
"Bah, what are you worried knight boy? If they turn on us, we can take them down easy." Rito scoffed.
"Koragg makes a valid point. If those monsters turn on us, then they might try to destroy the rangers themselves, or even us and Trakenna." Ecliptor added.
"Then it is fortunate that this was a test." All For One said as he entered the Skull Cavern. "I knew that entrusting you with several low-end Nomu would prove useful. Once the process is perfected, we'll be able to create newer and more powerful Nomu."
"Hey, uh, any thoughts about those ideas I had for the powers of those Nomu? You know, the aquatic and fire-based powers?" Elgar asked.
"Oh, my young mutant friend, those suggestions have been acknowledged and taken into account." All For One said with a smile underneath his mask.
"What of our plan to send an additional spy to UA?" Olympius asked. "I know you have one already inside the school, but a second one would be prudent for us."
"Ah, my young prince. The plan you have suggested is already underway." All For One assured, then vanished.
Rescue Lab/Bay
12:00 PM
"So, you're a Kamen Rider? That's what you called yourself?" Melissa asked Tsukasa, who was standing in the rescue bay, observing the construction of some newer pieces of equipment.
"Yes. I am." Tsukasa answered, not taking his eyes off the construction.
"And you're from another world?" Lena asked.
"I am." Tsukasa answered, turning to face the rangers, then bowed. "I apologize for the deception, but I had to ensure that you weren't my enemy. In my travels, I have encountered dark riders, evil Kamen Riders who side with the forces of darkness. I have met other Kamen Riders and those similar to you Power Rangers, but they call themselves, Super Sentai."
"So, the multiverse theory is real." Mondo said, stroking his beard. "It seems that the theory is no longer science fiction. The scientific community will be in an uproar when they hear about this."
"Yes, but the only reason I was able to come to this universe is because of the Grand Cross. The power emanating from the phenomenon is disrupting the balance between the dimensions, threatening the existence of the universe itself." Tsukasa explained. "Furthermore, what is your analysis of the device I left here?"
"Ah, yes the device." Mondo said, clearing his throat and pressed a button on the nearby console. "It appears that this device is an extractor of sorts. It extracts the quirk energy from a person with a quirk and stores it inside the extractor. It can hold multiple quirks, but once it finishes the extraction process, the person who had their quirk stolen is left alive."
"Is there any chance to reverse the process? Give the person their quirk back?" TJ asked. "If someone who wanted to become a hero lost their quirk, then they won't be able to attend a school like UA."
"We are working on that theory. We also sent our finds to Doctor Shields, in the hope that David will be able make some headway on the analysis." Jessica answered. "If there's a chance, we can give someone their quirk back, then we'll make sure that they get it back."
"The Nomu you all fought, Volt, was it? If Olympius is using a Nomu to create a monster, then it would seem that he has joined forces with the League of Villain's. Perhaps he was the one who made the Nomu at the USJ go berserk, make it look like the creature couldn't be controlled by Shigaraki, then approach them to create an alliance." Diabolico theorized. "If that's the case, then it means that Olympius is using them, or they are using him."
"Perhaps." Villamax agreed, then turned to Tsukasa. "But we still have a lot of unanswered questions, one that I am concerned about is the worlds that young Connor described to us. The backdrops in the studio that you work at are exactly like the worlds he saw in his dreams. What do they mean?"
"They are the places he must journey to." Tsukasa answered. "Furthermore, I know some people that can help you. They are quite the pirates."
And done. Well, what do you think? Were you guys expecting Kamen Rider Decade to appear? For the one who suggested that original Kamen Rider Kyuuga, I'll bring him in at a later date, but with Decade, thanks to him, the rangers now know of the other worlds where their battles will take them, but what are the worlds?
I won't tell you, but I have a few plans for some of the people in these worlds to morph into rangers. Mystic Force, Ninja Storm, you get the idea.
So, in regard to Volt, I basically used the Net Navi form of Elec Man and turned him into a Nomu, without all the data and such. Thank you, Megaman NT Warrior and thank you Kirby Morrow for voicing that character.
There will be more Nomu monsters, using the ideas of several creatures from some Sci-fi Channel Movies, some by Roger Corman.
Oh, and Mirko got to fight alongside the rangers. And let's not forget the other rangers were being there for Iida when it comes to his brother.
Better news, I got Starship Troopers Extermination and Fire Force is getting a third and fourth season. Azur Lane also seems to be getting a second season, and I am not talking about Slow Ahead. Hope that season of my favorite series with ship girls is dubbed.
So, until next time, please read and review.
